Obama Cracks Down On Islamic Mosques?
In a surprising move that provoked anger and outrage in the Muslim community, the Feds (on orders of the Obama administration) raided and seized four U.S. mosques and a Fifth Avenue skyscraper owned by a nonprofit Muslim organization long suspected of being secretly controlled by the Iranian government on Thursday [link].
The feds also seized a building that houses the Islamic Education Center of Houston. The news sparked outrage among Houston’s Shia Muslims, who worshiped there and sent their children to an Islamic school in the building.
This action comes one week after a home grown Islamic terrorist opened fire on Fort Hood soldiers killing 13 and wounding 48. The federal seizures seem out of character for terrorist sympathizer Barack Obama who made it known from his first day in office whose side he was on.
According to the AP, it is extremely rare for U.S. law enforcement authorities to seize a house of worship, as such action might violate the First Amendment right to freedom of religion. Federal prosecutors filed a civil complaint in federal court against the Alavi Foundation, seeking the forfeiture of more than $500 million in assets.

Celebs Out & About
Rihanna arriving at the Park Hyatt hotel in Paris yesterday. Also yesterday, a loyal reader emailed me saying she hoped Rihanna’s new CD Rated R fails because Rihanna has forgotten where she came from. I have to agree that Rihanna has gone Hollywood and forgotten her humble beginnings. If you look at her Twitter page (if that’s even her updating it) she follows no one.
Even the biggest narcissists in the biz (Oprah, Ashton and Diddy) follows somebody. Apparently, Rihanna’s head is THAT BIG that she feels no one is worthy of following on Twitter. Too bad she feels that way.
The music industry’s most immature, uncultured and bad-mannered couple, Kanye West and Amber Rose were spotted out & about in Italy yesterday wearing his and hers vintage Air Jordans. Thankfully she didn’t dress like a slut during her visit to the Vatican earlier this week.
Train Wreck Katt Williams Booted Out of 4 Seasons Hotel
Troubled comedian Katt Williams is like that drunk uncle who we think is hilariously funny when he’s tipsy. But he’s not so funny when he’s sober. So we overlook all the crazy things he does because he makes us laugh.
Sadly, Williams has more problems to deal with than just an occasional tumble off the wagon. He has mental problems too — and we can no longer overlook that. His mental problems means he is unreliable when recalling his actions and behavior. So any videos you see of him explaining himself can’t be trusted.
Last night, a friend of mine (one of my sponsors) who lives at the posh Four Seasons hotel and luxury residence on 14th Street in midtown called me to say Williams had just been kicked out of the hotel.
The hotel threw Williams out because he was loud and belligerent and caused a scene in the lobby.
But Williams told the AJC a different story.
According to sources close to Williams, he has bipolar disorder and he must have been having grandiose delusions when he told the AJC that he purchased a penthouse at the Four Seasons and also rented seven rooms for seven nights — all lies, according to the hotel management which had no record of him staying there.
All of this comes just days after Williams posted $41,000 bond to get out of the Coweta County jail after his much-publicized arrest for burglarizing a friend’s house.
We all thought Williams was funny onstage (in a weird sort of way), but now we know that he was really crazy all this time.

This is garbage. Two non-singing chicks on the same track? Hate it!
Another Dumb Rapper Gets Locked Up
If you’re a gambler, the one sure thing you can bet on is a rapper will get himself arrested or locked up for at least a year.
Yesterday it was Gucci Mane’s turn. Sources say the rapper, real name Radric Davis, was cuffed on Thursday for violating the terms of his probation after he paid a visit to his parole officer and was informed that he failed a random drug test.
That’s the way it goes. These guys know the rules: they can be ordered to take a urine test at any time with no advance warning.
A judge revoked Gucci Mane’s probation and he is back in prison serving out his sentence. Gucci was also arrested in 2005 for hitting a club promoter with a pool cue. He received a 12 month sentence last September for failing to comply with his court-ordered 600 hours of community service in that case.
Gucci is expected to be released from prison in May — the same month rapper T.I. comes home from the federal pen in Arkansas.
Photo of the Day: The Most Anti-American President in History
Once again, Barack Obama shows his quiet disdain for the United States of America. This picture was taken on Veteran’s Day at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Even if it isn’t protocol to salute the flag during the National anthem, it is customary and a sign of respect.
Despite what his mouth may say, Obama’s actions speaks louder than words.
