Support Israel In NYC And In LA On Wednesday

Via Atlas Shrugs:

PROTEST AGAINST PLO UNILATERAL CALL FOR PALESTINE STATEHOOD AT THE UN

Hammarskjold Plaza @ 833 1^st Avenue & E.47^th Street

Wednesday, Sept. 21, 12:00 PM

Scheduled Speakers:

MK Danny Danon – Member of the Israeli Knesset, a key promoter in Israel’s recently passed anti-BDS and other anti-democratic legislation

MK Gilad Erdan – Israel’s Minister of Environmental Protection (pending security details)

Mr. Simon Deng – Sudanese human rights activist living in US, who was a victim of child slavery

Dr. Robert Stearns – Founder and Director of Eagles’ Wings, a global movement of churches, ministries and religious leaders, and the protest organizers

Rev. Matt Sorger – He has over 19 years in the ministry and is outspoken in his stand with Israel

President Obama will be speaking to the United Nations General Assembly on Sept. 21.

This will most certainly account for heavy traffic during this time.

Please come with flags or your own hand made signs.

Tell President Obama that you want him to veto the Palestinian call for statehood.

Thousands of Americans will be arriving via buses, trains, and planes, but most will not be Jewish Americans. It seems that the Jewish Organizations have failed to act even in the face of Israeli leaders calling upon everyone to rally in front of the UN in support of Israel (www.durban3nyc.com/).

Pamela Geller will attend the LA event, check it out here.

Iowa Heard Her Roar, Complete With A Jobs Plan

Governor Palin‘s speech in Iowa has has so far an interesting range of reactions, from revealing the true illness of America that suffers from direct political influences to a total disappointment because she didn’t announce her candidacy for 2012.

You may say that Rove‘s seed sprouted amongst some people but America is not patient, used to regular partisan standards on all parties and want this all over and done with in order to go back to their surreal reality shows, so they can get rid of Obama later.

Nobody believes as I do that this is must force Obama to respond. Palin laid her card without any specifics just like the rest of the GOP do-and why should she? Obama will present His “Ultimate Miracle Cure Jobs Plan” that will have none of the suggestions in Palin’s plan.

Statement from Pedro Pierluisi Regarding Obama’s Trip To Puerto Rico

His constituents by-proxy are not thrilled about this visit. Puerto Rico’s population is about four million; what happens in the Unites States is affecting the island as well, so now they’re not happy campers. Puerto Ricans expect the same empty promises that Obama gave us. To make things more interesting, this is also Hillary Clinton‘s turf as she beat Obama in the Democrat Party’s presidential primaries in 2008 with a  3 to 1 margin.

Puerto Rico has also a lamestream media that is covering this four-hour visit as if he is staying for a week. Folks, it’s all about the money (read my Nancy Pelosi‘s blog post about this). There’s also that issue of Puerto Rico’s self-determination process that is in its infancy. Puerto Rico’s Resident Commissioner, Pedro Pierluisi (D-PR) gave this statement:

After noon, the Resident Commissioner of Puerto Rico in Washington, Pedro Pierluisi confirmed the information given ahead of time by EL VOCERO.  “I know that President Obama’s intentions is to show once again to the people of Puerto Rico that he identifies himself with us, with our causes and with our aspirations, and he wants to help us with our social and economical challenges that we face. I am positive that he will also use this trip to support the report of the Special Workgroup of the White House about Puerto Rico, and  to see firsthand how we’re benefitting from his initiatives of his administration”, said Pierluisi via written statement.  

Puerto Rico’s Resident Commish has “voice” in DC, but cannot vote on anything related to Puerto Rico nor the United States; he has to knock on a lot of doors to get things done.  What few people know on this side of the pond? That Puerto Rico’s Governor, Luis Fortuño (R-PR) has been friends with Pedro Pierluisi (D-PR) ever since their teens. It is a positive but awkward professional relationship.

I don’t expect the GOP to jump in and make a strong statement about this four-hour trip. The only cool thing will be that kids will finally see Air Force One in all its glory. Obama’s visit will certainly be a part of Puerto Rico’s 21st century but it will be exaggerated, as is with everything involving politics.

Barack Obama Will Travel To Puerto Rico

President Obama will make a four-hour stop in Puerto Rico on June 14. This is a very unusual visit for a US President to visit the island so quickly-Nancy Pelosi visited the island last year, gave a speech, grabbed Democrat fundraising for the past November elections, and left.

Obama’s visit will coincide with the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy‘s trip to Puerto Rico in 1961. The 43rd President of the United States will be the second president that visits Puerto Rico on official affairs, since the creation of the Commonwealth. Obama made a stop in Puerto Rico twice as a pre-presidential candidate during the Democrat Party’s primaries.

Now that Obama’s visit is confirmed, the logistics for Obama’s safety and security are put in place. The US Air Force, the Secret Service, Puerto Rico’s Department of State along with the FBI. Local police will be also on a serious alert and will provide security for the whole visit. All information regarding Obama’s visit is trickling in-so far the trip was in his agenda for weeks-but more details of this four-hour trip are trickling in, so stay tuned.

Last Rant On Puerto Rico’s Misleading Information

This is what Puerto Rico knows via their media.

I am terribly offended by Conservatives and especially “The Tea Party” that advocates so much for “their voices to be heard”, but won’t allow 4 million Americans in an island to decide their ultimate fate.

-More than 110K men died defending democracy and freedom to the USA; they took an oath to defend it;

-The second most casualty of Americans on 9-11 was from Americans from Puerto Rico.

-Puerto Rico sent firefighters, search and rescue people and dogs, Civil Defense, to NYC from all over the island-they just wanted to help find survivors.

-Born with American citizenship, use US Passport, currency is US Dollars.

-US invaded Puerto Rico; when my grandmother was alive she told that story to my oldest sisterfor a college assignment.

-This current status quo was support to be a “TEMPORARY STATUS” that either would lead us either to statehood or independence. Not this.

-Puerto Rico has nothing to do with Communism, Van Jones, Barack Obama or the Tea Party movement.

-There is an interesting angle as to why on the last round in ’98, the “None Of The Above” column prevailed.  Too bad nobody will speak about it-but in Puerto Rico, we know…the Democrat Party (PDP) in Puerto Rico won’t tell you either.  If it’s specified as it is in their party platform, their option would lose big time!

(That was an idiotic argument, Glenn!)

-Thousands of people in Puerto Rico feel right now that after all their battles, their causes, their goal to become a state of the Union has been thwarted by the likes of Glenn Beck and conservatives, which have played the race card in all this. Whoever was the “supposed new founding father” that took this waaaaaaayyyyyyy out of proportion, I have a message for you: YOU DID NOT PREVAIL!
