  1. I was unable to copy and paste the Drudge comment, but Charles Krauthammer is chiding Obama for lecturing the Muslims on the kind of religion Islam is.
    Charles seems not to realize that Obama grew up Muslim. He became a Christian under the ministery of a famous man who’s name I can’t remember.
    But it causes me to wonder about something.
    Question:
    If Obama wanted to advance Islam in the Middle East and the rest of the world, what would he do differently?
    That is: If his objective was to help the Muslims rather than protect the US, how would he adjust his policies?
    I’m not insinuating anything. It’s just that Charles makes me wonder about it.

  2. Chas,

    Of course you are right; Obama doesn’t want the US to do well, he wants Islam to do well. Obama’s “Christianity” shows little signs of the Love of Jesus Christ. Is he truly a Christian? God knows, not me.

    Obama thinks differently than I do.

  3. Some encouraging news for Thanksgiving: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/ebola-outbreak-1st-human-trials-of-canadian-vaccine-start-in-u-s-1.2796859

    The vaccine, which was developed by scientists at the Public Health Agency of Canada’s National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, will be tested on 20 healthy volunteers at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research in Silver Spring, Md.

    Studies in primates have shown the vaccine prevents infections, if given before exposure, and increases survival chances among those who get it quickly after exposure.

    The results from the Phase 1 human trials will be completed by December, Ambrose said, although no specific date was given.

    She said the vaccine has been shown to be “100 per cent effective” in preventing the spread of the Ebola virus when tested on animals.

    “If the Canadian vaccine is shown to be safe and effective [in humans], it will stop this devastating outbreak,” Ambrose said.

  4. Bombing doesn’t work. But its what america does best. I suppose the Kurds are supposed to be the boots on the ground but logistics arent helping. The Turks are quite content to let ISIS and the Kurds kill each other while the Iraqi state is too incompetent to provide support. So its back to an other bombing run and the appearance of doing something.
