As reported by The Blaze, On Friday, March 8, Secretary John Kerry along with first lady Michelle Obama will, according to an official State Department press release, will “honor 10 extraordinary women with the Secretary of State’s International Women of Courage Award.” The only problem is that one of those women, Samira Ibrahim, is an unabashed anti-Semite who called the murder of innocent Israelis in a suicide-attack “very sweet news” and said that each 9/11 anniversary should be marked by “America burning.”
No doubt disappointed to having been discovered, the State Department postponed giving the award to Ms. Ibrahim. Not cancelled mind you, but postponed.
Call me crazy, but I might think the Department of Home Security, rather than having the American citizens under surveillance, might be keeping a keen eye on folks like this, who publicly wish America harm. Certainly, and logic would seem to dictate she is not worthy of consideration for such an award, unless your are the left wing lunatics over at Time Magazine.
Not under the Obama administration.
Individuals and organizations who sympathize with, advocate for and affiliate with the Muslim Brotherhood and against Israel are held in high regard.
So you remain of the opinion that our government, and media, are not in full scale embrace and promotion of the Muslim faith?
Get a load of the outreach f propaganda advocating for acceptance of these types of folks. Erin Burnett, no doubt a liberal thinking individual who we recall from her days hosting Morning Call with the dearly departed Mark Haines on CNBC, hit former first lady Laura Bush with an eye popping question. Take a listen.
Come again? Thankfully, Ms. Bush gave her a dirty look in delivering a flat NO answer.
Erin Burnett is not alone, as she joins slews of lap dog journalists who seek to promote the acceptance of those with anti American voices who dream of taking us down a notch. Support for this line of thinking goes all the way to the upstairs basketball court at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
For us real folks out Rush Limbaugh's Realville, we recognize our enemies, foreign and domestic, and there are plenty of them. We saw the Muslim Brotherhood take over in Egypt coming a mile away. In fact, we recognize that Michele Bachmann, not withstanding getting scolded by Sen. John McCain, (R:AZ), was and is correct to question the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in our government.
The right for anti American activists to express their opinions we recognize, but unlike many running the country presently, we do not support Ms. Ibrahim, the Muslim Brotherhood and/or Islamic terrorists.
We support the free and the brave, America the beautiful!

Economic Teachable Moment
Today, we saw the DOW downdraft almost 1000 points before settling in with a 350 point loss. There are news reports of a trading error by CitiGroup (partially Govt owned). At any rate, growing concerns over the debt with the PIIGS, the immorally increasing debt of Uncle Sam, an onslaught of entitlement programs and increasing excessive regulatory mechanisms and taxation has left our financial markets very trigger happy, and rightfully so.
Unfortunately, the problems in our economic climate will be increasing due to the numerous missteps by the Obama administration. Reaction to the staggering debt and the unsustainable increase of liabilities you see playing out in Greece this week is a preview of things to come here on Main Street if we don't abruptly change course.
Critical in that new course would be for the Obama administration to about face and embrace the entrepreneur. The strength of our economy is the growth of existing and the emergence of new small businesses, who do the greater majority hiring. As a small business owner, I can tell you regulation has become a significant barrier, and will get worse if the financial reform package, spearheaded by the corrupt Senator Chris Dodd (D:CT), who we have blasted in the past, becomes law. The Obama pledge of not raising taxes on families making less than 250K annually has already been broken, and the extra taxation extracts capital, the mothers milk of business expansion and credit, from the system.
Either the Obama administration is stupidly ill informed on the subject or is attempting to crash the system. Perhaps they could learn a thing or two about the role of the entrepreneur in the success of a growing economy by listening to a recent interview of Carl Schramm of the Kauffman Foundation by Erin Burnett of CNBC.
The solutions to the economic problems for Uncle Sam are strikingly simple for the Obama administration and our congressional leaders, or anyone, to grasp if the motivation is there. It starts with the embracing of the entrepreneur to create new small business opportunities.
Many of these emerging companies will fail, and lessons will be learned. This is the route to take. Turning bailout nation into bailout planet is traveling down a road that will lead to the events you see in Greece. When it happens, you know who to blame.

FDIC Economic Wizard Seidman Dies
On the heels of losing another famed Great American on the economic front in Jack Kemp, I was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of another as former FDIC chair and CNBC economics commentator Bill Seidman died today.
Seidman, 88, was a crafty veteran of the economic political theatre and was the chief architect of the Resolution Trust Company which rescued the real estate market decades ago. In fact, I recently wrote if he might be available to help us out yet again.
In an era lacking common sense, Seidman rose above the fray and fired out plain spoken intellectual rhetoric on the economic issues of the day. He forgot more than most knew.
I will certainly miss those segments on CNBC with Seidman. He was a great gentleman a a true titan in banking and economics.
The gang at CNBC mourn the loss, including Sure Herrara, Erin Burnett, Larry Kudlow and Jim Cramer.
Larry Kudlow, an old friend and colleague of Seidman, posted the following tribute:
With the passing over the last few weeks of Kemp and Seidman, the economics department up in Heaven has dramatically improved. Rest in peace Bill!
