Dog-Eating and Obama’s Identity
...It really isn’t unfair at all to bring Obama’s canine consumption to public attention. The president isn’t really one of us. He’s a dog-eater. He tells the story in his memoir to emphasize that viscerally, Obama identifies with the Third World of his upbringing more than with the America of his adulthood. It is our great misfortune to have a president who dislikes our country at this juncture in our history.

#2  I just love the fact that Obama narrated his book for the audio version so the dog eating is in his own voice.

#4  The recipe book is halarious.

The story line that this is somehow leaked out to do damage, is damage to the very groups pushing that line, as it is said, right in his own words...unless someone else wrote his book, right?

To be honest, I hope he catches half the hell I've caught for dining overseas...except being the cultural expert as is, my polyglot portfolio does not include Austrian.

#5  In many Asian nations dog is deliquesce delicacy.
In S. America and Africa certain larva and beetles are also prepared.
Being raised on a farm you learn to differentiate between 'pets and 'food'.
I think the most telling part of this article is POTUS's Muslim fathers Musliminity...

#6  To me, the most telling part of the article is that this the first evidence that anyone actually read Obama's book.

#7  the most telling part of the article is that this the first evidence that anyone actually read Obama's book

Apparently nobody on the Obama campaign did.

#8  #6 is funny, had the same thought.

I'm sure Chow Chow Mein has been hit.

The Scandalous Lies of ‘Hope Not Hate’

Israel-Palestine-Jordan
Two, Three, Many Gazas Strips
Mark Krikorian at The Corner nails it: "...the only way Islam will reform itself is for Islamists to come to power and for the people to finally learn, deep down in their bones, what a dead end Islam is in the modern world..."

Islamicists can't deliver. They (like the progressives) can destroy the world but they can't govern it.

#1  Then it should have reformed itself back in 1981. It still hasn't.

Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Renewed Iran-West Nuclear Talks Part II
Tehran Attempts to Deceive U.S. President Obama, Secy of State Clinton With Nonexistent Anti-Nuclear Weapons Fatwa By Supreme Leader Khamenei

An important element in the renewal of nuclear negotiations with Iran in the
talks in Istanbul April 13-14, 2012 was an alleged fatwa attributed to
Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, according to which the production,
stockpiling, and use of nuclear weapons are forbidden under Islam and that
the Islamic Republic of Iran shall never acquire these weapons. Indeed, U.S.
leaders – among them Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and even U.S.
President Barack Obama – along with 5+1 representatives to the talks, the
International Atomic Energy Agency Board of Governors, and even highly
respected research institutes considered the fatwa as an actual fact, and
examined its significance and implications for the nuclear negotiations with
Iran that began in Istanbul.

However, an investigation by MEMRI reveals that no such fatwa ever existed
or was ever published, and that media reports about it are nothing more than
a propaganda ruse on the part of the Iranian regime apparatuses – in an
attempt to deceive top U.S. administration officials and the others
mentioned above.

#1  Some kind of compromise nuclear agreement has reportedly allegedly been reached by Iran + P5+1 but the details aren't out yet.
