U.S. Treasury Submits To Islam, Shariah-Compliant Finance

Am I the only one that thinks the world is going to end up as a giant train wreck?

The U.S. Treasury Department is submitting to Shariah - the seditious religio-political-legal code authoritative Islam seeks to impose worldwide under a global theocracy.

[...]

"Islamic banking" is a euphemism for a practice better known as "Shariah-Compliant Finance (SFC)." And it turns out that this week the Treasury will be taking officials from various federal agencies literally to school on SFC.

The department is hosting a half-day course entitled "Islamic Finance 101" on Thursday at its headquarters building. Treasury's self-described "seminar for the policy community" is co-sponsored with the leading academic promoters of Shariah and SCF in the United States: Harvard University Law School's Project on Islamic Finance. At the very least, the U.S. government evidently hopes to emulate Harvard's success in securing immense amounts of Wahhabi money in exchange for conforming to the Islamists' agenda. Like Harvard, Treasury seems utterly disinterested in what Shariah actually is, and portends.

Unfortunately, such submission - the literal meaning of "Islam" - is not likely to remain confined long to the Treasury or its sister agencies. Thanks to the extraordinary authority conferred on Treasury since September, backed by the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), the department is now in a position to impose its embrace of Shariah on the U.S. financial sector. The nationalization of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Treasury's purchase of - at last count - 17 banks and the ability to provide, or withhold, funds from its new slush-fund can translate into unprecedented coercive power.

Concerns in this regard are only heightened by the prominent role Assistant Treasury Secretary Neel Kashkari will be playing in "Islamic Finance 101." Mr. Kashkari, the official charged with administering the TARP fund, will provide welcoming remarks to participants. Presumably, in the process, he will convey the enthusiasm about Shariah-Compliant Finance that appears to be the current party line at Treasury.

Who Is Obama's Chief Of Staff, Rahm Emanuel?

He appears to be a bit mentally unstable.

At a dinner to celebrate President Clinton's first election victory, Mr Emanuel began to name those who he believed had earned his enmity. As he listed the names of those he saw as traitors, he grabbed a steak knife, stood up and began plunging the knife into the table and shouting "Dead! Dead! Dead!" after each name.

"When he was done, the table looked like a lunar landscape," one witness recalled. "It was like something out of The Godfather. But that's Rahm for you."

Nor was this an isolated incident – one pollster who fell out with Mr Emanuel received a rotting fish in the post as a warning not to cross him again.

The Most Amazing Thing Ever! Stunt Plane Loses Wing

In the air shows I've been to, there's been some close calls. The year before I went to Dayton's show, a pilot crashed and died. But this video is one of the most amazing things I've seen. The pilot loses a wing during his performance...watch what happens next.

 

***UPDATE 11/8/08***

You know the saying "if it's too good to be true, it probably is"? Well this video is a product of good editing. It's an R/C plane until the very end, then a real plane is put in.

No one is more disappointed than I am.

What Happens To The Obama Supporters?

I Thought This Was Hilarious

Most Of The MSM Has Called The Election For Obama

I've been dealing with people freaking out all night. I'm not freaking out. All the precincts have not reported yet. Until those votes are counted, the very large number of absentee votes, early votes, and military votes won't be counted. If I wake up tomorrow and find out that Obama is officially the president, then I will get depressed. After that, Conservatives need to work together to take over congress in 2010.

This is all I'm going to post about at this time. I will have more to say tomorrow. I'm still hoping when I wake up, the exit polls were wrong.

I Voted Today

Not knowing what the polls would be like tomorrow, I decided to go the board of elections today and vote early. I gathered up my mom and brother and headed over. I had to stand in line for an hour and a half before I got to vote. It didn't help that there were only 2 machines there.

As much as I hated to do it, I voted for McCain. So there's 3 votes for McCain anyhow.
