Innocence of Muslims is the Muhammad Movie by Sam Bacile
Innocence of Muslims is the Muhammad Movie by Sam Bacile that caused Muslims to kill United States ambassador, J Christopher Stevens. The anti Islam video claims Islam is a lie and Mohammed was a pedophile. Reviews of the Muhammad Film have ranged from “Disgusting” to “the riot laugh of the summer.” All rights to Sam Becile or whoever made this film.
American Ambassador, J. Christopher Stevens, diplomat, father, husband, and American Citizen, being dragged through the streets of Benghazi
You will not hear about this in the liberal media. Our US Ambassador to Libya being dragged through the streets before being murdered.
To most Americans this is an act of war. To our president it’s just another act of office violence (like Fort Hood). He and the Secy of State have already apologized and will soon send them another $6.3 Billion in foreign aid. This is as sad as it gets.
Former Guantanamo inmate accused of attack on US ambassador to Libya – Telegraph
US intelligence officials believe a former Guantanamo Bay inmate with ties to Al-Qaeda is “likely” to have organized the attack which killed the American ambassador to Libya last week, according to new reports.

The former inmate, Sufyan Ben Qumu, is one of the leaders of Ansar al-Sharia, a Libyan militant Islamist group with a high-profile presence in the east of the country that has already been identified by local officials as involved in the attack on the consulate in Benghazi in which Chris Stevens died.
“It was people from Ansar al-Sharia – not all of them but some of them, and I think (the organization) knows who did it.”
Oil Prices drop to $91 per barrel which should improve the cost of living-
Monday saw a drop in oil prices which has continued through today. No one can figure out what happened, as much of the news reports.
Many are quick to report that these are all indicators of a further down turn in the economy.
But we must be quick to remember, it is HIGH oil prices that drive the cost of living up and CHEAP oil prices that bring prosperity.
Which brings the question, is the news media bent on seeing the worst on every side or have they just been doing it for so long that they forgot to be optimistic?

OBAMA FLASHBACK: THE DAY I’M INAUGURATED MUSLIM HOSTILITY WILL EASE
Warren Buffett, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling:
“I could end the deficit in 5 minutes,” he told CNBC. “You just
pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more
than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible
for re-election.
The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds)
took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple!
The people demanded it. That was in 1971 – before computers, e-mail,
cell phones, etc.
Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year
or less to become the law of the land – all because of public pressure.
Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to
a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask
each of those to do likewise.
In three days, most people in The United States of America will
have the message.
This is one idea that really should be passed
around.
Congressional Reform Act of 2012
1. No Tenure / No Pension.
A Congressman/woman collects a salary while in office and receives no
pay when they’re out of office.
2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social
Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the
Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into
the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the
American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.
3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all
Americans do.
4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.
Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress loses their current health care system and
participates in the same health care system as the American people.
6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the
American people.
7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void
effective 12/1/12. The American people did not make this
contract with Congressmen/women.
Congress made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in
Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers
envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their
term(s), then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will
only take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive
the message. Don’t you think it’s time?
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!
