Priceless Entertainment Thanks to Palin

If there is any video you watch online today, it’s this one.
It’s sooo funny, I almost died with laughter. Pure genius! Seriously, whether you’re a Donkey or an Elephant, you gotta admit that this is hilarious as hell.
Yeah, without the prepared and carefully worded speeches, Palin sadly exposed herself as a disaster, but […]

Go Home Palin, It’s Getting Absurd!

Uh, um, chili is not cold, and I went to the supermarket because light travels from the sun when I yawn and then he disagreed since 1987 beyond Tom Cruise until monkey banana.
Gosh, this is so bad, it’s not even funny. Heck over at Pajamas Media you even have people wondering whether Bobby Jindal would […]

Keep Preaching Al-Ansari!

Abd Al-Hamid Al-Ansari is one of my favorite liberal Arab intellectuals. Believe it or not, he’s also the former Dean of Islamic Law at Qatar University.
Next time you hear people asking you “where are the moderates,” show them this video.
Don’t say they don’t exist. We’re everywhere, but we need to start “shouting” louder.
Enjoy and yaaay […]

Sharia Courts Operational In Britain

I know this is old news, but still. When I first read about it, my initial reaction was anger at what I saw - and still see - as a travesty. I thought to myself “what the hell is wrong with you Brits?”
Seriously, what is wrong with you Brits? It doesn’t look to me like […]

Not So Fast Republicans

A friend of mine sent me the following article to dispute an earlier post I wrote.
Here’s the excerpt I want to highlight.
Nationwide, there are about 42 million registered Democrats and about 31 million Republicans, according to statistics compiled by The Associated Press.
The Democrats have posted big gains in many competitive states, including Nevada, New Hampshire, […]

Neo-Mu’tazilite

Here’s a simple and decent summary about a group of early Muslims I’m increasingly fascinated by.
The Mutazilites belonged to very early school of thought (9th century CE) in Islam which stressed human free will and the justice of God. They attempted to find a “middle path” between the heretical Kharijites and more orothodox beliefs by […]

The Palin Factor and Why McCain Has a Good Chance of Winning Now

Sarah Palin without a doubt has invigorated the McCain camp in a pretty significant way.
I mean let’s face it. Just about a week ago, McCain was the old, dull and boring guy that the media couldn’t be bothered too much with. It was Obama fever all over the place, and when Biden got into the […]

Interesting Comment About Sudanese Jews

Some dude left a pretty interesting comment in the comments section of an older post I wrote, but I can’t clarify if it’s true or not.
Here’s the comment (posted by Asaru Nun Atun on August 22nd, 2008 8:05 am):
Shalom luk wa Barukuwth a’l Ent. I am student of Rabbi: Dr Malachi Zodok york El/also known […]

Jailed Egyptian Blogger Being Abused

Kareem Amer is getting harassed in jail by the tyrannical idiots keeping him in there and the other inmates.
Spread the word if you can.

If Obama or McCain Suffer from Deadly Diarrhea

And I mean literally deadly diarrhea…
… then on one hand, we could end up with an old dude who’s heavily experienced, and one the other hand, we could end up with a hardly experienced woman from Alaska.
Given the ages of Obama and McCain, there’s a higher probability we could end up with the Alaskan […]
