Íhaldsbullur grípa um pung...
...og taka til varnar fyrir þennan hortuga ráðherra, sem hvorki skilur stjórnskipulega stöðu sína né umboðsmannns Alþingis. Umboðsmaður hefur einfaldlega það hlutverk að fara ofaní saumana á málum sé þess farið á leit. Ráðherra á einfaldlega að svara þeim spurningum, sem umboðsmaður leggur fyrir hann. Hafi ráðherra einhverja skoðun á spurningum umboðsmanns er það hans einkamál og á ekkert erindi inní opinber bréf ráðherrans til umboðsmanns. Mannasiðir er svo eitthvað sem sumir stjórnmálamenn virðast telja algeran óþarfa. Allavega virðist það fjarri þeim sumum að temja sér almenna kurteisi í samskiptum sínum við ýmsa embættismenn, að ekki sé talið um ókurteisi þeirra við Alþingi. Látum það vera að ráðherrar séu dónalegir í samskiptum við fjölmiðla. Það er þeim sjálfum þá aðeins til minnkunar. En virðingarleysi þeirra við Alþingi og embættismenn, einsog umboðsmann Alþingis, er ekki beinlínis til að styrkja stjórnskipulagið. Þvert á móti grefur það undan stjórnskipulaginu og veikir það að óþörfu. Það gerist þegar reynt er að grafa undan traust og virðingu stofnana samfélagsins. Fjármálaráðherra gerir sig einmitt sekan um það með bréfi sínu.
Þetta er ekki í fyrsta skipti sem áhrifamenn í Sjálfstæðisflokknum gera tilraun til að grafa undan trausti og virðingu embættis umboðsmanns Alþingis. Þeim virðist sín eigin persóna mikilvægari en traust og virðing stjórnskipunarinnar í landinu. Og þar liggur líklega hundurinn grafinn! En hégómlegir ráðamenn minna aðeins á söguna um Nýju fötin keisarans!
"Ríkið það er ég" er hugmynd sem ekki á við í lýðræðisþjóðfélagi!

Það eru margir kallaðir, en fáir útvaldir. Á Wikipedia er að finna lista yfir meinta Messiahsa. Kannski einhverjir bloggarar vilji bæta sér á listann?
Ætlar enginn að setja sig á listana? Enginn af ofur-kristnu ofurbloggurunum?
The Jewish Messiah originally meant a divinely-appointed king; David, Cyrus the Great, and Alexander the Great[1] are examples of such. Later, especially after the failure of Bar Kokhba's revolt, it came to represent a figure who would deliver the Jews from oppression and usher in a new world.
Simon (ca. 4 BC), a former slave of Herod the Great who rebelled.
Athronges (ca. 3 BC)

Jesus of Nazareth (ca. 4 BC - AD 30-?), a wandering prophet and teacher who was crucified by the Romans; Jews who believed him to be the Messiah were the first Christians, also known as Jewish Christians.
Theudas (? - 46), who attempted a short-lived revolt against the Romans before being slain. (JA20.5.1)

David Alroy (?), born in Kurdistan, who around 1160 agitated against the caliph before being assassinated.
Nissim ben Abraham (?), active around 1295.

Mordecai Mokia (1650-1729), "the Rebuker," another person who proclaimed himself Messiah after Sabbatai's death.

Menachem Mendel Schneerson (1902-1994), a Chabad Rabbi who tried to "prepare the way" for the Messiah; some followers believe him to be the Messiah.

Hannes Hólmsteinn hinn frumlegi varar við Islamistum!
Meðan íslenska þjóðarbúið brennur stingur hugmyndafræðingur brennuvarganna niður penna, eða þannig. Í ljósi nýfallins hæstaréttardóms hefur hugmyndafræðingurinn snúið sér að glænýju viðfangsefni, sem sé Múslimum meðal nýrra Íslendinga. Nýbúar eru ólíklegir til að hefja málarekstur gegn málsmetandi Íslendingum. Nú hefði mér getað dottið í hug að Hannes teldi sér renna blóðið til skyldunnar í þeirri kreppu sem frjálshyggjan hefur leitt yfir okkur Íslendinga, og heimsbyggð alla. Hann tæki fram fræðin og leiddi okkur útúr kreppunni með markaðshyggjuna að vopni eða að minnsta kosti að hann tæki til varna fyrir þá hugmyndafræði, sem hann og vinir hans hafa boðað. En kannski er það of sárt fyrir hann að viðurkenna, að forysta Kinverska Kommúnistaflokksins hefur hreðjatak á öllu efnahagskerfi, og þar með stjórnmálalífi, Vesturlanda (fjármagna m.a. þetta svokallaða stríð gegn hryðjuverkum). Ástæðuna er að finna í blindri græðgi markaðskerfisins. Lærifeður Hannesar eru hugmyndafræðinga þessa kerfis, sem hefur leitt okkur í klær hugmyndafræðilegs höfuðóvinar þessara galvörsku hægrimanna. En skrifar Hannes um brennuna, sem hann tók þátt í tendra og afleiðingar hennar. Nei, heldur rennir hann sér í huglausasta hjólfarið og atast í nýbúum.
Og á meðan snæða nemendur Austurbæjarskóla Bæjonskinku með rauðkáli!

Muhammed og myndbirtingar Jótlands-póstsins. Tvöfeldni og hræsni!
This article was first published on guardian.co.uk on Monday February 06 2006. It was last updated at 08:38 on February 07 2006.
Jyllands-Posten, the Danish newspaper that first published the cartoons of the prophet Muhammad that have caused a storm of protest throughout the Islamic world, refused to run drawings lampooning Jesus Christ, it has emerged today.
The Danish daily turned down the cartoons of Christ three years ago, on the grounds that they could be offensive to readers and were not funny.
In April 2003, Danish illustrator Christoffer Zieler submitted a series of unsolicited cartoons dealing with the resurrection of Christ to Jyllands-Posten.
Zieler received an email back from the paper's Sunday editor, Jens Kaiser, which said: "I don't think Jyllands-Posten's readers will enjoy the drawings. As a matter of fact, I think that they will provoke an outcry. Therefore, I will not use them."
The illustrator said: "I see the cartoons as an innocent joke, of the type that my Christian grandfather would enjoy."
"I showed them to a few pastors and they thought they were funny."
But the Jyllands-Posten editor in question, Mr Kaiser, said that the case was "ridiculous to bring forward now. It has nothing to do with the Muhammad cartoons.
"In the Muhammad drawings case, we asked the illustrators to do it. I did not ask for these cartoons. That's the difference," he said.
"The illustrator thought his cartoons were funny. I did not think so. It would offend some readers, not much but some."
The decision smacks of "double-standards", said Ahmed Akkari, spokesman for the Danish-based European Committee for Prophet Honouring, the umbrella group that represents 27 Muslim organisations that are campaigning for a full apology from Jyllands-Posten.
"How can Jyllands-Posten distinguish the two cases? Surely they must understand," Mr Akkari added.
Meanwhile, the editor of a Malaysian newspaper resigned over the weekend after printing one of the Muhammad cartoons that have unleashed a storm of protest across the Islamic world.
Malaysia's Sunday Tribune, based in the remote state of Sarawak, on Borneo island, ran one of the Danish cartoons on Saturday. It is unclear which one of the 12 drawings was reprinted.
Printed on page 12 of the paper, the cartoon illustrated an article about the lack of impact of the controversy in Malaysia, a country with a majority Muslim population.
The newspaper apologised and expressed "profound regret over the unauthorised publication", in a front page statement on Sunday.
"Our internal inquiry revealed that the editor on duty, who was responsible for the same publication, had done it all alone by himself without authority in compliance with the prescribed procedures as required for such news," the statement said.
The editor, who has not been named, regretted his mistake, apologised and tendered his resignation, according to the statement.
