“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.”

Osama Bin Laden's Eldest Wife May Have Collaborated with CIA

The IndependentOsama Bin Laden, physically and mentally frail and holed-up in a secret compound in a Pakistan garrison town, may have been sold out to the Americans by his eldest wife who was furiously jealous of the al-Qa’ida leader’s preference for a younger bride.

An eight-month investigation carried out by a retired senior Pakistani army officer, Brig. Shaukat Qadir, suggests Bin Laden’s eldest wife, Khairiah Saber, was so upset that after she moved into the house in February last year that she collaborated with the CIA teams that were hunting him. “Absolutely, I’m sure about it,” said Mr Qadir, speaking yesterday from Rawalpindi. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.”

The retired officer has based his investigation on interviews with officials from the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency and access to transcripts of interviews with Bin Laden’s three wives who were living with him in the Abbottabad house. The widows remain in Pakistani custody and who have this week been charged with visa offences.

Mr Qadir was also permitted rare access inside the compound, where he was shown blood-stains purportedly belonging to Bin Laden, who was shot dead by US special forces. He said the motivation to invest his own money and time in the issue was the number of contradictions that appeared in the various accounts of the CIA’s surveillance operation and the eventual raid to kill Bin Laden, who was codenamed Geronimo."

On Condoms and Catholics....

By Matthew@The Lunatic's Asylum
RE: The recent tempest regarding the ObamaCare mandates on birth control vis-à-vis religious institutions.

I'm still waiting for someone to tell me that Muslim religious institutions must comply with the law, too. There has been a curious silence on this matter. One would either expect that any Muslim negatory response would come with an ostentatious explosion, or since one has been lacking, that another 'secret' deal has been brokered behind the scenes which exempts the Exploding People from this provision of ObamaCare.

I'm also waiting to hear from all those Left-wing retards who screamed about the draconian threats to personal liberties and privacy that were embodied in the Patriot Act to explain why it is that the government should respect a terrorist's right to privacy, vis-a-vis wiretapping in order to prevent a mass murder, and that it should have the right to drag people's sexual lives into the light of day and infringing upon people's right of conscience in order to score a cheap political point on behalf of a walking-wounded President who hasn't got the proverbial snowball's chance in hades to be re-elected.

I'm not expecting to hear anything especially logical or coherent on either account, so there's no point in waiting for answers.

 A few words about birth control, which Muslims have been practicing since 632 AD -- only now with explosives and televised beheadings...oh, sorry, this isn't about Muslims, and I seem to have gone slightly off track. My apologies.

Bill Clinton to Join Obama for Fundraisers

From Bloomberg:
"Former President Bill Clinton has agreed to make joint appearances with President Barack Obama at a series of campaign fundraisers, according to three people familiar with the matter. The 42nd and the 44th presidents will appear together at events in the coming months in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York, according to one of the people.
The New York fundraiser will be attended by donors in the financial services industry, said the person, who like the others spoke on the condition of anonymity because they hadn’t been authorized to talk about the events.  The prospect of a meeting with Obama as well as the former president, whose favorability rating was 67 percent in a Pew Research Center poll last year, may entice more donors.........."


"Democrats cheered the move and said it signaled a new stage in the campaign. The show of Democratic unity comes as Republicans are in the middle of a protracted primary fight."

Romney Offers Gingrich Deal



Middle Finger News Exclusive:
Drop out Now, I'll make you President of the Moon

In an apparent effort to mend the rift within their own party, a Romney spokesman told us that after the Super Tuesday primary results are in, they plan to offer that if he drops out of the presidential primary race, a Romney Presidency would gladly support Newt Gingrich as the first "President of the Moon" should the candidate's plan for a moon colony come to pass.

"Gov. Romney would be happy to take up the Speaker's idea of establishing a moon colony as a U.S. state, or whatever it was he proposed, as long as he drops out of the race now, and then, once it's established we can send Newt up to be president of that, hopefully sooner rather than later."
 
"There's nothing I'd like better than to see Speaker Gingrich on the moon," said Romney at a campaign stop Monday, drawing prompt agreement from the likes of Sen. Tom Coburn, former Sen. Bob Dole, CNN's John King, Gingrich's first wife and Gingrich's second wife.

TV talk show host Nancy Grace said today she also approved of the idea of a moon colony, so long as it contained no "sickos, perverts, psychos, criminals, kooks, killers or members of the Casey Anthony jury." As to whether she thought Speaker Gingrich fit into any of those categories, Grace thought for a moment and responded, "Well, I know he wasn't on the jury."

More and more, the GOP establishment has been rallying around Romney out of fear that Gingrich may gain some momentum and end up winning the nomination and prove unelectable against Barack Obama come November.

Gingrich, for his part, noted again at a campaign event yesterday that if the Obama administration had spent as much money on the space program as it had on food stamps and green fees, "We'd already be floating around a manned U.S. moon colony."

Gingrich said Obama was misguided in squandering this opportunity, and reiterated a point he'd made in his book To Renew America that moon colonization will be especially popular for couples, given the positive effects of weightlessness on sexual intercourse. "Personally I can't wait," he said.

When told of the comment, President Obama responded by throwing up a little bit in his mouth.

Quote of the Day......

"How many of us find ourselves looking forward to that fried chicken, mac and cheese, pound cake after church on Sunday. Some people come to church just for the fried chicken"- Michelle Obama during an interview on Black Entertainment Television’s (BET) Sunday show “Lift Every Voice”

Way to pump out the ‘fried chicken and black people’ stereotype, Michelle.
Imagine if Rush or Beck said that.......

Hey Buddy, Can You Spare $38,500 to Save My Ass

Obama has shattered the amount of time and number of events 
any president has ever spent to focus on saving their own job.


Mark Knoller - CBS
By day's end, President Obama will hit 100 on the campaign fundraising scoreboard.
He reaches the century mark by doing four money-raising events for his re-election campaign during a seven-hour swing through New York City. The visit follows a speech this afternoon here in Nashua, New Hampshire on the energy components of his strategy to boost the economy and create jobs. It has taken Mr. Obama less than a year to do a hundred re-election fund-raisers since he officially filed his candidacy for a second term with the Federal Election Commission on April 4, 2011.
The hard-driving effort to raise money has taken Mr. Obama to 13 states. The contributions taken in at Mr. Obama's fundraisers go to the Obama Victory Fund, an entity set up to raise funds simultaneously for the Obama for America campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
The most well-heeled contributors are asked to contribute $35,800 each. It's the legal maximum under FEC rules and get split this way:
$2500 maximum to Obama campaign primary campaign
$2500 maximum to Obama campaign general election campaign
$30,800 maximum to the Democratic National Committee
The Obama campaign fundraising juggernaut has accumulated far more money than any presidential candidate.
The latest filing with the FEC shows the Obama campaign has raised over $140 million of which $106 million are from individual contributions. And as of January 31st, the campaign boasted a war chest of nearly $76 milllion collars "cash on hand." That compares to $63 million raised to date by former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney's campaign, which had $7.6 million to spend as of the end of January.
Money doesn't always buy a political victory, but in 2008, a vastly superior war chest was an undeniable factor in helping a junior senator from Illinois win the presidency in a campaign against Arizona Sen. John McCain.
As president, Mr. Obama has yet another fund-raising advantage. He can travel the country at relatively little cost to his campaign. When he flies to Los Angeles for a series of fund-raisers, his campaign pays only a minuscule fraction of the $180,000 per hour it costs to fly Air Force One.
Like its predecessors, the Obama White House refuses to disclose exactly how it calculates the costs of political travel to be reimbursed to the government by the Democratic National Committee or the Obama campaign.
Unlike his predecessors, Mr. Obama claims to run the most open and transparent White House in history. When it comes to details of political fundraising, the transparency is opaque.

Ganett Newspapers Undergo Philosophic Change

"They Don't Really Read the Stories Anyway"

Middle Finger News Service - In a move that industry analysts say illustrates the challenges facing traditional media outlets, the Gannet company announced this week that it would run only photos of attractive people in its newspaper USA Today.

  Actually especially USA Today," noted new Ganett chairman Zig Dubose'.


"We asked ourselves: Is there ever a time that a story is better served by showing a fully clothed ugly person?" said Dubose'. "And then we answered ourselves: No, there isn't."

Dubose' noted several recent focus group studies from the Columbia School of Journalism that cited an audience preference for seeing attractive, well-groomed, scantily clad people in the publications that they read. The decision by Gannet is only the latest move on the part of media companies to tailor their products to modern audiences. 


Dow Jones, which publishes the Wall Street Journal and was acquired by media magnate Rupert Murdoch, turned heads when Murdoch announced all stories would be fewer than 300 words long and be "85 percent action verbs. "People don't have time for a whole lot of nouns or, God forbid, conjunctive adverbs," said Murdoch, noting that the new WSJ will have stories "as fast-paced and action-packed as an Arnold Schwarzenegger movie."
Other recent moves by newspaper companies have included:

- "Choose your own ending" news stories (Knight Ridder);

- "Who's the Secret Source?" contest (Washington Post);

- A woman in a bikini in every section, including Obituaries (Boston Herald).

Boston-based media critic Lanny Putz lamented the fading away of the traditional newspaper model - with its long stories on topics nobody was particularly interested in - but noted that newspapers must adapt to keep up with the Internet, which features naked pictures of Vanessa Hudgens."That's the challenge - finding the common ground between long and boring and naked Vanessa Hudgens," said Putz.


 Even the magazine publishing world recognizes the need to change in order to interest readers. Leftist rags like Mother Jones have plans to run full page layouts of Rosie O'Donnell in assless chaps, and The Nation magazine plan full nudes of Janeane Garofalo actually combing her hair.


In a related story, Community Newspaper Holdings has announced a new "Naked Vanessa Hudgens" section in every one of its more than 290 daily and weekly newspapers.
