Of Cowering White Liberals and the most Juvenile Religious Segment Ever Invented

(Updates at the end)
First, they came for the people who opposed a bunch of questionable characters building a Mosque at Ground Zero, Manhattan and all who objected were labeled 'racists.'

Really? That was first? Well, pretty close to first. Next they came for the Florida minister planning a bonfire of Korans.  That one has to be second, nothing else of note was between.

This is the face of Islam under siege in a post 9/11 world.  This is a siege? According to some, yes. Let us not forget that Americans may be slaughtered if the oxidization process of this paper pile is accelerated, according to a high-ranking uniformed liberal. Why? Because Middle-East and Central Asian Muslims are the biggest babies on earth, that's why.

Of course, this is the way any religious person would act when their holy books are intentionally destroyed, right?  Hows about we takes a look at a few other items:


North Carolina Church burned non-King James Bibles in 2009. What was the body count from that? Zero?

How about a burning Bible video from 2007 -

What? Nothing has happened with that? No way!

Burning bible video from 2008 must have ruffles some feathers of the religion and gun clutching set.



No?
Another video of Bible burning, this one with a catchy title that should have swept the internet like wildfire:


Lots of casualties from that one?

Maybe Bible burning is in a Holy loophole somewhere, like burning soiled American flags. Surely heads would roll and body parts would fly if someone shot a bible with a gun, right?



Wrong. No marching in the streets, no fits, no fights. Nothing like when Newsweek lied and people died.

So, just what is all this fuss about, especially from religion hating liberals? Quite simply, Western White liberals are a bunch of fradiae-cat pansies that like to lump people together in odd categories.  To them, all Asians are yellow, all Republicans are White, all Muslims are "people of color" and everybody who is not White and/or Christian is oppressed by White Christians. We can skip the Jews for a moment until the liberals need some mysterious bully to explain why there is no actual evidence for their position.

A big one with liberals is Africa being a nation, rather than a continent. At least that is the way they use "African" much of the time, the same way everybody else uses "Irish".  This is a key concept to grasp, since they seem to think all Muslims are from the Middle-East.  Maybe those are the only Muslims liberals care about, making the rest invisible. Actually, they are not invisible. They just aren't causing trouble like the Middle-East Muslims.

Something both Rush Limbaugh and David Horowitz have observed over the years, the left really does not care who their allies are, as long as those allies hate either America or Western Civilization.  Thus, the bomb making, Jew exterminating, USA attacking, French car burning Muslims are pals of the liberal. And by liberal, I do not mean people like me and my friends who enjoy erotica, wish for the day when drugs are legal (even if we don't plan on doing any) and would rather not get married before enjoying sex with others.  I am talking about the liberal left, Socialistic, Nazis with speech codes and an unquenchable self-hate for their own countries.

What about these "moderate Muslims" we all keep hearing about?  Those would be the ones that Arab Muslims call "monkeys" and go around killing in greater numbers than they kill non-Muslims.

Back to the White liberal, another pet thought of theirs is that everybody in the South USA owns a gun (or arsenal), a Confederate flag, goes to Church, lives in a trailer, Southern cities are trailer parks, makes moonshine, is always barefoot unless at a wedding, married a close relative and prefers to have sex with a willing sibling. If someone meeting that description is not located in the South, then they are just a redneck.  There must be a lot of rednecks at Reason magazine, the biggest online and print advocate of close-relative intercourse.

Remember all those riots when Confederate flags were burned? That's okay, I don't either. The liberal will tell us that never happens, even though it does. Don't miss the next event! Here is an article about it from the Leftist mind. See Red State for a sane take on that one. I hope someone from the press is keeping the body count stats beginning Sunday.

Some think that burning an American flag and flying a Confederate flag are "similar in many ways" (my count of similarities is zero, not quite the same as many, IANAL).

So, enlightened, delicate readers, when will burning the Koran be as popular as burning the Bible? When will burning the Koran be as 'patriotic' as burning flags?

Been to any good stonings lately? Discuss.

Update 09/09/10:
From Slashdot -
theodp writes"In response to a complaint, Rackspace has shut down the websites of the Dove World Outreach Center, a small 50-member church which has received national and international criticism for a planned book burning of the Quran on the anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. The center 'violated the hate-speech provision of our acceptable-use policy,' explained Rackspace spokesman Dan Goodgame. 'This is not a constitutional issue. This is a contract issue,' said Goodgame, who added he did not know how long it had hosted the church's sites. Not quite the same thing, but would Kurt Westergaard's cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad also violate Rackspace's AUP? How about Christopher Hitchens' Slate articles? Could articles from one-time Rackspace poster child The Onion pass muster?"

Assange asks for new lawyer

Assange asks for new lawyer • The Register:
"Julian Assange has requested a new lawyer to represent him during a rape investigation in Sweden because his previous brief, Leif Silbersky, was not engaged enough with the case.

Assange wants Bjorn Hurtig to represent him as authorities continue to investigate the allegations, according to AP."
The article goes on to say that Assange denies that he said the CIA was behind these accusations. Which is something I never read a quote of either. What he did do was repeat that WikiLeaks was warned that the Pentagon would try dirty tricks. He would repeat that every time the rape and molestation charges were mentioned.




For some background on the "greatness" of Assange, just see his video doctoring work:

Is Zhora Just Around the Corner?

One step closer to "Blade Runner":

Carnegie Mellon’s Incredible Robot Snake Climbs a Real Tree


Carnegie Mellon has taught its robotic snake to climb trees, though one hopes it won’t start offering your spouse apples. “Uncle Sam” (presumably named for its red, white, and blue markings) is a snake robot built from modular pieces. The latest in a line of ‘modsnakes’ from Carnegie Mellon’s Biorobotics Lab, Uncle Sam can move in a variety of different ways including rolling, wiggling, and side-winding. It can also wrap itself around a pole and climb vertically, which comes in handy when scaling a tree. You have to watch this thing in action. There is something incredibly life-like, and eerie, about the way it scales the tree outdoors and then looks around with its camera ‘eye’. Projects like Uncle Sam show how life-mimicking machines could revolutionize robotics in the near future.
I hope there are other efforts underway to make snakes like the one Zhora dances with in Blade Runner.

In the first Suki series, Suki works in robot theory as a consultant to industry.

London's Black Cabs: Product of the Nanny State

London's Black Cabs are Facing new Competition for Fares - WSJ.com:
"LONDON—London's black cabs might be as iconic as Big Ben, but in a city that has seen other much-loved symbols such as red telephone boxes and Routemaster double-decker buses almost disappear, being iconic is no guarantee of a future.

London's famous licensed taxis, whose origins go back 350 years, are, along with their drivers, now facing stronger competition from new rivals."
I always thought London cabs were so cute! Had no idea of the nannyism behind that until I read this article. The turning radius is regulated under a ridiculous set of Conditions of Fitness. The look is regulated so stupid people won't confuse them with any other vehicle. Licensing requirements are just stupid, preventing others from entering the business. A court dented the Conditions and Fitness rules, but the "stronger competition from new rivals" comment is laughable.  It is not like they are getting competition from Joe six-pint in his 2001 Ford Fiesta.  It goes on and on in the article.

Self-Powered Gadgets

Another one for cross-posting:
Slashdot | Self-Powered Parts Are the Future
"The idea is that the parts will make external power sources redundant — because they can convert energy from body heat, light and vibrations straight into electricity. Self powered electronics have already sporadically been used in technology like wall-mount remote control units for air conditioners, says Nikkei, but existing parts are bulky and cost a couple thousand yen a piece. 3,000 yen is about $35 — which means they're not the best bet, financially, yet."
In all of the Suki series romance novels, the 'gogs' and earbuds are powered by body heat, or a combination of body heat and saline (contact lens gogs). Gogs contain computer screens and sometimes cameras, earbuds have more advanced processors, speakers and possibly microphones.  Most anything worn on the body is powered by the person's body heat, movement, chemical interaction or a combination.
