CHUTZPAH OF THE YEAR AWARD

"We did not treat President Bush this way."  

Yip, Nancy Pelosi said it... I just knew you'd guess that.  And she said it on that bastion of truth, MSNBC.  I think 14 people were watching at the time...  

NO wonder NBC got rid of Jay Leno... they've got Nancy warming up in the bullshit pen. They can't do any cooking at her house, because she's "de-ranged."

WHAT OBAMA DIDN'T SAY

Another marathon speech.  I didn't watch, but reports are that he did NOT talk about:
  • Benghazi
  • Fast & Furious
  • ObamaCare Website
  • IRS
  • DOJ Spying on Associated Press

Guess we can blame his speechwriters for that.... It certainly wouldn't be HIS fault that these issues were not included, right?

OBAMA: "I'M NOT TO BLAME"

What else did you expect him to say?  Conservatives are to blame, Tea Parties and Republicans are to blame and you are to blame for voting them in.  Okay, so they won't do as he tells them; now, he's going to use his poisoned pen and MAKE them comply.

THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS

I was reading an editorial written by R. Lee Wrights, Chair of the Libertarian National Committee, regarding how we accept the lesser of two evils into our lives and end up making one huge mistake.  So often, we are presented with two or more choices in life, none of which we particularly like, so we choose "the lesser of two evils" as we see it.  It's the same in politics, such as when Obama was running against McCain in 2008.  I didn't like either one of them, but I disliked McCain less, so I chose the lesser of two evils.  Perhaps millions of Americans also didn't like either one, but they knew what they had in McCain and didn't know what they had in Obama, so they voted for the lesser of two evils, which was Obama in their minds. 

The point is, in either event you are voting for something or someone you perceive as being evil, only to a lesser degree than the alternative.  One guy killed four people, one guy only killed two people, so I'll vote for the guy who killed two people.  Really?  

Two often in politics, we are presented with two or more unpopular choices.  That means we are not attracting enough qualified candidates, for one reason or another.  Something in the "system" is to blame for that.  But, we don't have to chose between two candidates we don't like; just because we're in the voting booth at the time doesn't mean we have to vote for each position.  And, just because we know that the "good guy" doesn't stand a chance of winning doesn't mean that we should not vote for him or her.  

We've been faced with too many situations where we had to vote for a Presidential candidate and didn't like the two front-runners, but were afraid "the good guy" didn't stand a chance.  Next election, I'm voting for the "good guy" and letting the two evils both hang out to dry.

NO, OBAMA, WE'RE NOT TO BLAME

There's no doubt that the State of the Union sucked big-time in January of 2009 when Obama assumed office.  Here we are five years down the road and the State of the Union is in the toilet.  

We have the highest level of people out of work in decades.  The poverty level has skyrocketed.  We're in danger of world war from several corners of the globe.  We're in danger of terrorist attack from within.  Our economy remains in a shambles regardless of what Obama would have us believe.  We're being subjected to a health care plan that is further destroying our economic base and leaving millions of people uninsured who were insured before.  

Fast and Furious; Benghazi Massacre; IRS attack on conservatives; NAS spying, DOJ oppression of the Associated press and others; unprecedented secrecy; trashing of our government; decrease in personal income... on and on and on.  

Obama wants to blame the Limbaughs and Becks of the world.  He wants to blame the American Patriot.  He wants to blame you. 

Well... He's the President of the country; not Limbaugh or Beck or me or you.  He's the supposed leader of this country.  He's the guy with the ability to clean up his act and deal with these issues.  
And Barrack Hussein Obama, the first Black President in the United States, has failed miserably. 

Period.  


OBAMA'S AFGHANISTAN POLICY BACKFIRING BIG-TIME

Obama's announcement that he was withdrawing all troops from Afghanistan gave encouragement to Al Qaeda, the Taliban and other terrorist groups.  President Karzai's corrupt administration has tolerated the Taliban and the country is now disintegrating into violence as Al Qaeda bombings permeate the country.   The really sad thing here is that we committed thousands of young Americans to die over there for naught.  

That makes me want to vomit, big-time.  

There is now talk about sending 10,000 troops back in.  For what?  So we can lose some more lives for naught?  You either go in there with 200,000 troops, drones, bombers and tanks with a full political commitment to clean house and win, or you stay the hell out. 

We were making good progress in Afghanistan until Obama stuck his damned nose into it.  He is very much... 100%... to blame for this outrage... especially where we predicted the outcome when he made his withdrawal decision.

BIG BROTHER IS LISTENING

Here's a tidbit I'll bet you didn't know: PERSONAL LIBERTY DIGEST is reporting that by exploiting the voice control feature that is standard on many computers, smartphones and tablets, hackers can turn Google Chrome into a listening device to record your conversations without your knowledge.  

I suppose I should mention at this point that there is a very, very close association between Google and the Obama Administration. 

Hopefully, this blog posting will appear, unedited and as scheduled.  Hopefully, the big, black SUV out front is the milkman.

BENGHAZI HEATS UP

Democrats are increasingly joining Republicans in calling for a Special Committee to investigate the Benghazi Massacre. A bipartisan report blames the State Department for failing to increase security and adds that 15 people in Benghazi who have tried to help the FBI investigate have been killed. 

Killed by whom?  To what lengths will the Obama Mob go to to prevent the rest of us from finding out what the real story is about Benghazi?  And why?  

Why did Greta Van Sustern of FOX get a telephone call from a friend in the White House telling her to talk to Jennifer Griffin, who has been aggressively reporting on Benghazi, and to get Griffin to back off or risk losing her career?  

Who is to blame for not impeaching these bastards and throwing them in jail?

SOCHI

Al Qaeda and their affiliates have succeeded in making a lot of noise about what they intend to do at the Winter Olympics.  To be sure, they seem to be attracted to major events and the Olympic games are no stranger to terrorism; neither is Russia.  What's disturbing is that the Administration and the State Department are running around like little Chicken Littles screaming that the Olympic games are going to be attacked and the Russians don't know what they are doing.  

In other words, these donkeys are giving voice to terrorist intent.  Why aren't they concentrating on doing something proactive about it? 

As it is, I doubt that the terrorists are shaking in their boots afraid of what will happened to them if they succeed, especially considering how we have not handled Benghazi.  Putin takes Obama for a jerk and Russia is afraid to accept our intelligence because they can't trust it; our allies are remaining aloof for the same reason. 

We need to let Putin do his thing.  We offered, he declined, so the ball is in his court.  In the meantime, we should concentrate on making sure that our airplanes going to and from the games are safe.  And we should be taking a close look at the people themselves who are going to and from the games, lest terrorist acts originate on our shores; I mean, how do we know that a terrorist or two hasn't flown to the U.S. as an indirect means of getting into Russia?  

If something does happen and it happens to American athletes or enthusiasts, have no one to blame but ourselves.  It is we, the people, who elected and reelected a President, who by his actions and lack of actions has caused the rest of the world to shun us.

WHO'S INVESTIGATING THE CONTRACT?

CGI Federal is the Canadian software development company that the Obama Administration hired without normal procurement procedures to build the ObamaCare website.  Nobody is talking about how much has been paid for the website as of yet, but I believe it to be in excess of $750 million. 

Where did all of that money go?  Was it used in compliance with the terms and conditions of the contract?  Did they follow and meet the specifications?  Who wrote those specifications?  Who was responsible for contract oversight to assure the government that the specifications were being met?  Why was there not an invitation for bid or a request for proposal process followed?  Did the relationship between Michelle Obama and Toni Townes-Whitley have anything to do with the award of the contract?  (Whitley was a Princeton classmate of Michelle Obama and is a CGI top executive).  Why does CGI have new contracts with the U.S. worth $37 million ? 

Who is to blame for this financial disaster and why is it not being investigated?

ADMINISTRATION TRIES TO SHIFT BENGHAZI BLAME TO STEPHENS

I normally don't post this site on weekends, but every now and then something huge comes along. 

The latest dialogue, (also referred to as "talking points"), coming out of the Administration is that Ambassador Stephens obviously knew of what the risks were in Benghazi since he had been asking for more security; yet, he went there from Tripoli anyway.  Therefore, the Benghazi Massacre was his fault. Obama has no blame.  Clinton has no blame.  Stephens was to blame.  

What gall this Administration has; what gall. 

And you're going to swallow this?

OBAMACARE WEBSITE LEAKS LIKE A SIEVE

With another revelation that ObamaCare "guides" or "navigators" have not been screened for prior criminal activities and the resulting exposure by those seeking information or signing up for ObamaCare to having their personal, health and financial information compromised, it is obvious that security for the program is nearly non-existent.  Hot on the heels of massive hacks and data loss by Target and other retailers, we now learn that internal safeguards in the ObamaCare computers are also nearly non-existent.  

Anyone signing up for ObamaCare has to understand the risks; if the NSA doesn't get all of their personal information, the crooks and thieves will.  What is worse is that there does not seem to be any interest in Congress in plugging the security leaks.  Are those Congress Members going to reimburse you for any financial losses you might have due to the hacking of the ObamaCare website?  No way.  

There are many reasons why no one in their right mind should be signing up for ObamaCare.  The total lack of information security tops the list.  It is a despicable tragedy upon the American public that this program was passed into law and that Congress will not rescind it. 

And we know who to blame, don't we?

BENGHAZI: FAR-FETCHED HYPOTHESIS GAINS CREDIBILITY

Now that some of the torrid details of the Benghazi Massacre are finally making it to the surface, the nagging question is: Why would Obama and his cohorts go to such great lengths to cover up the facts and to bury the story in a total fabrication of video gone bad?  Why?  

Shortly after the cover-up began, that same question was making the rounds when an explanation was posed.  It had come to light that high-ranking members of the Muslim Brotherhood had visited the White House on more than one occasion, ostensibly to try and secure the release of "The Blind Sheik" from captivity.  As the story goes, Obama feared domestic reprisal if Omar Rebdel-Rahman were to be released, but was sympathetic to the request.  Over a series of meetings, a plan was devised.  

The plan called for "terrorists" to attack the Consulate at Benghazi and to take Ambassador Stephens as a hostage.  There would only be a token response from security personnel, assured by the draw-down of staff and even the order to "stand down" when the event began; it would be a quick and painless hostage taking, followed by "tense negotiations" and the trade of Stephens for the Blind Sheik.  

When the terrorists arrived at the compound, they were meet with unexpected fierce resistance by what security personnel were available and felt they were being betrayed by Obama.  They proceeded with vengeance, destroying the compound, killing Stephens and three others.  When the word reached the White House, Obama was scared to death that the facts would come out and he left it for Clinton and others to handle while he did what he always does when faced with severe adversity: he got on Air Force One and left town, this time heading for a speech in Vegas.  Intertwined in this tale is the thread of illicit arms-sale intrigue.  

As far-fetched as it may seem, it certainly fits nicely, doesn't it?

OBAMACARE BAILOUT?

The figures coming out yesterday reveal that ObamaCare signups are running woefully lower than expected.  From my standpoint, that is as it should be; the voters are voting their displeasure with the whole boondoggle by not signing up.  Now, there are three proposals being floated around as to what is next: (a) a taxpayer-funded bailout to the insurance companies, (2) increased premiums, lower subsidies and decreased benefits, and (3) going closer to a totally government-operated single-payer system. 

Note that none of these proposals talks about cutting back on the program, rewriting the program, or stopping the program.  They need 7 million signups by the end of March to make this work; they have a little over 2 million and they are only getting a 24% participation from the younger crowd needed to pay for the old geezers.  

And their only three proposals are going to cost everyone of us, enrollee or not, one fat ton of money. 

Now, who would blame the country if we all marched on the White House and had our OWN sit-down with the President in the Rose Garden?

HERE... HAVE SOME CROW; EAT IT

Those who have miraculously been able to sign up for ObamaCare are now faced with a new problem: the insurance companies, doctors or hospitals don't know it.  When you go for medical care, they spend a long, long time trying to verify your coverage and can't; you may have your card, but you're not in the system.  If you're one of the few they can verify, they can't determine what plan you are on. 

Granted, when the government wants to spend your tax money on frivolous things, they can accomplish miracles overnight.  But, when the government has to track down money and it doesn't know where it is or who it belongs to, it may take forever and I mean that literally.  Just ask the thousands of Native Americans who had their trust accounts "misplaced" by the government. 

Doctors and hospitals depend on the cash flow to keep their businesses open.  If they have to start accumulating large accounts receivable balances while they wait to get paid, they're going to quit taking ObamaCare patients...period.  And you get the double whammy if you are one of those unfortunate people who got kicked off the plans you liked in order to force you onto ObamaCare.  

So, why did you vote for the idiots in Congress who passed this law?  There were plenty of us out there trying to warn you about what was coming.  You didn't listen.  You have just as much blame in this mess as Congress and Obama.   But, you CAN do something about it in November.

GLOBAL WARMING CAUSES PROSTITUTION

Barbara Lee and a few other wizards in Congress are putting forth the proposition, no play on words intended, that global warming causes prostitution.  They are contending that the warming causes disruption in the production of crops, thereby reducing available food and causing economic disaster that will force women onto their backs.  Now, we all know that there would be no mention of "global warming" if it wasn't for Al Gore.  

The logical conclusion to this pile of dementia is that Al Gore needs to be arrested for being a pimp.

BENGHAZI B.S. BOILS OVER

The State Department has now identified two terrorist organizations responsible for the Benghazi Massacre: Ansar al-Sharia in Benghazi and Ansar al-Sharia in Darnah.  This revelation comes just days after another attempt by Susan Rice to lay blame for the attacks on the infamous video and it comes a mere two weeks after THE NEW YORK TIMES, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the White House, raid there was no organized or preplanned attack at Benghazi.   

The State Department also labeled as terrorists Sufian bin Qumu, head of the Darnah branch and a former Guantanamo Bay detainee, and Ahmed Abu Khattalah, head of the Benghazi branch, further undermining the recent position that Al Qaeda had nothing to do with it. Both have long held direct ties to Al Qaeda.  

Sometimes I think those Obama weirdos are on LSD.  

What I'd like to know is, where does the Muslim Brotherhood tie in to this?  Do Muslim Brotherhood visits to the White House  reported in 2012 have anything to do with this? 

OBAMA'S OUTRAGEOUS IRS PLOY

Just when you thought the things Obama is doing to this country... against this country... could not get any more despicable, we are now faced with the news that he has blatantly told Americans he can do anything he wants and you can't stop him.  

As you know, Obama promised to get to the bottom of the IRS scandal, where the IRS was targeting conservative groups and perceived enemies or dangers to the Obama agenda and the major question of the day was: "Did Obama himself order this?"  The IRS was to investigate itself.  A few weeks later, Congress asked the then Director of the IRS who was in charge of that investigation.  The reply?  "I don't know."  Since then, the Administration has steadfastly refused to give up the identity of the person or person responsible for investigating this IRS abuse. 

Yesterday, Congress finally was able to determine who the investigator is: Trial attorney Barbara Kay Bosserman, an ardent support of Obama and prolific contributor to his campaign. 

This is no investigation; it's another goddam in-your-face cover-up.  This is John Gotti in the White House.  It's a white wash by a black President. 


He has to be removed.  He IS to blame.

REID'S WRONG AGAIN

Harry Reid started off the new year by saying that the only ideology the Republican Party has is to make Obama look bad.  

Where I come from, the fallacy in this statement lies in the fact that Obama has no problem in looking bad without help from anyone.  And he has no one to blame for his crappy image other than himself.

HAS NSA SPIED ON CONGRESS?

Well, if we've spied on the Chancellor of Germany, the Queen of England, the Prime Minister of Israel, the Associated Press, et al... Can you imagine why NSA would NOT have spied on members of Congress?  Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont has fired off an epistle to the NSA asking just one question: "Has the NSA spied, or is the NSA currently spying, on members of Congress or other American elected officials?” 

Sanders slammed the embattled agency’s tactics as “almost Orwellian,” adding it was “equally disturbing to learn that the NSA has been involved in listening in on phone calls made by government leaders of countries such as Brazil, Germany, France, Mexico and other U.S. allies. 

In the meantime, Representative Peter King from New York went on a rampage against Rand Paul who is preparing to bring a class action lawsuit against NSA's domestic spying.  King has almost directly said that he is willing to give up Americans' Constitutional protections in the interest of security.  

Are we going to go through the rest of our lives wondering who is listening to us, who is looking at us or who is reporting on us?  If we lose our freedoms, it won't be because of people like Sanders or Paul; we will have Obama, Reid, King and people like them to legitimately blame. 

The irony here is we have a President who caved in to North Korea's nuclear ambitions, who is about to sell out our national security interest in Iran and we have NSA wanting to spy on US because WE supposedly pose a danger to the country.

IRANIANS ARE THE GOOD GUYS?

For decades now, the U.S. has consider Iran to be a terrorist nation.  In its quest to become acquire nuclear weapons, Iran has lied, bullied, stalled, threatened and pulled every other trick in the book to keep us and Israel from conducting a preemptive strike against their facilities.  

Obama, in a desperate gamble to steer American attention away from his continuous and blatant lies, as well as his disastrous ObamaCare program, sent Secretary of the State John Kerry off to the Middle East for the purpose of securing an agreement from Iran to end its nuclear ambitions.  An exuberant Kerry then proclaimed that the U.S. and five other nations had reached a breakthrough agreement with Iran.  Iran promptly announced that the terms of the deal as announced by Kerry were by no means "real." 

Before this latest gambit, of course, Syria crossed the "red line" that Obama denied ever talking about.  Russia's Putin extracted Obama from the resulting controversy over his red line about-face and Syria's Assad agreed to get rid of all chemical weapons.  As December 31st came and went, however, it became apparent that the Syrian agreement was on shaky ground and that progress wasn't really being made.  

Well, Kerry is off to the Middle East again.  One of his missions is to ask the Iranians to help the U.S. convince Syria to honor its commitment.  He wants Iran to broker a new deal.  Am I crazy, or does this sound like the farce of the century? This clown belongs with Ringling Brothers.

THE TAIL THAT WAGGED THE DOG?

Congressional Democrats, in fear for their jobs, are now scrambling to find some way to get out from underneath the political pile of rubble being built by ObamaCare.  Evidently, after several gin and tonics, advocates have been quietly pushing the idea of a CEO who would set marketplace rules, coordinate with insurers and state regulators on the health plans offered for sale, supervise enrollment campaigns and oversee technology, according to several sources familiar with discussions between advocates and the Obama administration.  NEWSMAX reports the advocates include former White House adviser Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of President Barack Obama's former chief of staff Rahm Emanuel; and the Center for American Progress, the Washington think tank founded by John Podesta.  Obama is reportedly cool to the idea. 

Now, I don't understand... The Congressional Democrats all know who they are; THEY are the ones who rammed ObamaCare through the legislative process.  You would think they would at least stand up and defend their positions.  On the other hand, snakes are not very good at standing up.

BENGHAZI MASSACRE NEVER EXISTED

Over the holidays, Susan Rice, now Obama's National Security Advisor, said that the Benghazi Massacre story was basically a big farce, perpetuated by the Republicans and of no consequence.  If you remember correctly, she was the then Ambassador to the United Nations who insisted on five separate Sunday news gab shows that the massacre was not a massacre at all, but was an uncoordinated attack on the Consulate as a result of the infamous anti- Muslim video. 

Of course, we're well over a year down the road and we know some real facts, and some admissions have come forth which solidify that this Massacre was a well-coordinated, advance planned activity and that no Libyan were even aware of that film until the day after the massacre, when Washington asserted the film was at fault.  

But, the NEW YORK TIMES asserted over the weekend that the film was the cause of riots that led to the consulate destruction and loss of lives.  When those in the know called the TIMES to task and pointed to the facts, the Editor of the TIMES backed the assertion up. 

Well, if the TIMES is right, and they are definitely not, why has the Administration steadfastly refused to provide documents, testimony and other facts regarding the massacre?  By now, of course, Obama had intended that the Benghazi story would be relegated to the archives of things that never happened, along with Fast & Furious and other scandals.  Alas, new developments about Fast & Furious also surfaced over the holidays, surely strong enough to reinvigorate that investigation. 

The fact that the Administration refuses to cooperate with Congressional investigators underscores their position that the massacre never happened.  I mean, we're now expected to believe that the Consulate never existed; that was stated over the holidays: the "Consulate" was simply a "diplomatic station." 

So, it's simple.  The Consulate never existed, therefore the massacre did not occur and the Republicans are to blame for trying to make you think otherwise.  When you live in a sea of lies, even the sea is a lie.
