The Left’s worst fantasy Nixon in the White House
I didn’t sleep a wink last night I had a horrible dream, I’d rather not discuss; suffice it to say its images haunted me every time I closed my eyes. The horrible stories and images of the tornado torn Oklahoma City of Moore are humbling and heartbreaking.
What does one do if you can’t sleep? Read, hoping it will make you tired enough to nod off. It didn’t work.
James Taranto’s column in the WSJ, if you couldn’t read anything else read his. It’s title is “Democracy is in peril”. The most troubling line over 2400+ words was this:
As we wrote Friday, this will be a scandal like Watergate if it turns out that the IRS was acting under orders from Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett. If the White House's conduct turns out to be unimpeachable, then it is something far worse: a sign that the government itself has become a threat to the Constitution.
Bookworm asks, Is the IRS scandal the worst political scandal in American history? I say “yes.”
The absolute worst scandal that’s emerged lately, and the worst administration scandal in American history is the IRS scandal. Why? Because you, the People, became the targets of a comprehensive federal government effort to stifle dissent, one made using the government’s overwhelming and disproportionate policing and taxing powers.
Indeed, if it turns out the White House did not direct the IRS and Department of Justice to turn its machine on the AP, FoxNews, and We, the People than the entire Constitution has been turned on its head.
Now
might be a good time to take a look at how we got here, the quickest summary is offered by Taranto:
It oversimplifies matters only slightly to say the liberal left owes its cultural authority to three events in the 1960s and 1970s. The culmination of the civil-rights movement in 1964-65 established its moral authority. The antiwar movement's success at securing defeat in Vietnam established its political authority. Watergate discredited the Republican Party. (It also made heroes of journalists and provided impetus for restricting the political speech of those who are not media professionals.)
From this emerged a Left certain of its moral authority and feeling they were entitled to rule. Barak Obama is the end result of the Leftist feelings and entitlement to rule. He embodies perfectly the grandiosity the Left feels for itself. Obama is the embodiment of the civil-rights movement & anti-war movement, sort of. He is the darling of the media who made him who he is, a product of their youths fantasies.
He’s not an “African American” but he is the right skin color. He didn’t stop the war machines he has adopted many of the Bush policies including invading countries even if it was only Libya and they tried to do it on the cheap. Think Benghazi.
Unfortunately for the Left and their moral superiority, Obama’s leadership has turned the government into a Thugocracy complete with bullying whistleblowers, turning the DOJ into club beating silencers of the “free press” who may go against the regime, and sicking the IRS on citizens who dissent from the ruler’s opinions.
The reason for so much Watergate hand ringing in the press conversations with themselves is, it might turn out Obama is the personification of all Nixon dreamed of doing with the government in theory turned into actuality. A product of media invention driven by 60’s radical’s in the media.
Call me crazy but I pray this scandal begins and ends at the desks of Obama, Jarrett, Holder, and Hillary who are the culmination of 60’s radicals hell bent on utopia by any means. Because if not and it turns out that “low or mid” level personnel in the DOJ & IRS are at the core of these despotic acts then our Constitution is as good as dead.

To their core
Beretta is leaving Maryland, Colt is leaving Ct, & Magpul is leaving Colorado. The combined tax paid by the companies is about $500 million, not including the smaller companies which survive primarily from doing business with these companies.
One could argue the Left’s Governor’s and Congress are applying principal, but the fact is none of the laws would have prevented a Sandy Hook. Additionally, the latest gun statistics released by the DOJ admit that while the sales of firearms have increased exponentially, gun crimes have decreased. The tax payer will have to make up the short falls in lost revenue, only proving -once again- being on the Left means never having to say you’re sorry.
It’s ironic that while Obama and the Left are trying to create the illusion that Sequestration (a 2.5% decrease in FUTURE budgets) will cause tremendous pain to “main street” they can’t put their ideology aside long enough to stop hurting “main street.”
Which brings us to the press who, after 4 ½ years, has decided they will do their job and report the news to the American people. What has caused this epiphany? Narcissism.
After President Obama snubbed his adoring media out of an all boys weekend golf outing with Tiger Woods the press decided to demonstrate their discontent with the Narcissist in Chief by reporting the truth about him. They exposed his and his administrations lies about sequestration crisis’s that never were.
Thinking this would teach Obama who really made him who he is today and then he would change his ways. However, the press has been doing a great deal of covering up the Benghazi screw ups first for Obama to get passed the finish line of a contentious election and, more recently, to cover for Hillary Clinton’s screw ups at the State Department pertaining to four dead Americans. It’s an exhausting job for the media, however for the Left, the ends justifies the means.
Fast forward to today’s media discontent with team Obama where he was caught pulling phone records on the Associated Press. Now the leaks would stop and whistle blowers would no longer call the media or so they claim. Since the whistle blowers claimed they called the alphabet media and no one wanted their story I’m sure the press was concerned it affect leaks about Republican’s not Democrats. At any rate, this latest diss from their hero they have decided to report about the IRS trespassing into Conservative groups seeking tax exempt status.
In addition to the IRS scandal Benghazi has also caught our media’s attention. After the media blackout of the Weekly Standard’s Steven Hayes reporting about the email lies within the Obama talking points for days finally ABC decided they would show their dissatisfaction and report about the emails too. Once ABC did it, it became okay for all the other media outlets to do it.
Not to worry America, if Obama jumps back in line for his sycophants in the press, they will cover it all up for him in a nice neat little bow. Nothing to see here folks, all smoke and no fire, because in the end, you must understand it’s all about them.
Lois Lerner received four Pinocchio’s from the Washington Post for lying about, well just about everything she said. Here is the skinny about Lerner’s Q&A set-up question. It wasn’t about notifying Americans the IRS singled out Conservative groups seeking tax exempt status, it was about voter intimidation meant to send a chill down the spines of anyone seeking tax exempt status and dampening fund raising efforts of private citizens. It turns out individual Republicans are not donating money for fear of being audited. That seems to be the real intent behind the IRS story making it to main street. The Left, consisting of the media, Democrats, and the myriad of political action groups cannot win elections or count on the courts to rule in their favor so they will lie, cheat, and steal the elections like any other Despot.

A Nation of Men not Laws
On ABC’s This Week, Dan Pfeiffer of the Obama regime was asked if the law was broken when IRS agents targeted Conservative groups. Pfeiffer said, "I can’t speak to the law here. The law is irrelevant. The activity was outrageous and inexcusable, and it was stopped and it needs to be fixed so we ensure it never happens again."
Really Mr. Pfeiffer?!
See some would argue that he wasn’t exactly dismissing the law but trying to make a larger point that what happened at the IRS was wrong. Well duh. However, in so doing, Mr. Pfeiffer exposed a truth that is becoming more and more apparent; we are no longer a nation of laws but of men.
Our founders left Europe because the King ruled as a Despot. He applied the laws to his own benefit and used the laws to crush and suppress those opposed to his rule.
The Declaration of Independence was not just a declarative statement to the world that the colonies were severing their ties to England but it was an indictment of to the multitude of injustices by King George suffered by the colonies. In the DOI the framers made their case listing the unfair & unequal applications of law endured while under the strict thumb of a man’s whim.
The DOI states: But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
My point is simply this: our current crop of leaders don’t care about the law, they believe they are above it. The Left’s argument began largely for a society consolidated around the government to dole out ideals to those deemed worthy. However, more and more the power is flowing along personal lines. What began as a cry to help the homeless and the needy has become a familiar historical meme. One in which power is consolidated to friends and interests, a leviathan, not for the people, but for themselves.
Anyone or thing which is a perceived threat to the leviathan is stamped out or on. The arms of punishment are government apparatuses turned on the people. The IRS is a tool used by the powers of the current occupants in government to pummel and silence the opposition which threatens its now -tribal control.
Today the laws of our land are there to punish the Left’s enemies not to serve justice. I would thank Mr. Pfeiffer for such honesty if for nothing else, but for the American people to see who the Left really is, but alas, I don’t think the American people can break their attention long enough from “The Voice” to see what is really happening.

It's scary when the Government enforces look just like the movies portray them
YIKES!!!
The Internal Revenue Service official in charge of the tax-exempt organizations at the time when the unit targeted tea party groups now runs the IRS office responsible for the health care legislation.
Sarah Hall Ingram served as commissioner of the office responsible for tax-exempt organizations between 2009 and 2012. But Ingram has since left that part of the IRS and is now the director of the IRS’ Affordable Care Act office, the IRS confirmed to ABC News today.
Her successor, Joseph Grant, is taking the fall for misdeeds at the scandal-plagued unit between 2010 and 2012. During at least part of that time, Grant served as deputy commissioner of the tax-exempt unit.
This is the best monologue I've heard in years!!!
Regulations are smothering the small guy. While Democrats don’t hide the fact they want government to be central in our lives they either lie or fool themselves that it is for the little guy.
Regulations make it harder for start-up companies because of all the zoning regulations and fees. Big Business has the financial and legal resources to meet and comply with all the regulations and they are content to comport because it eliminates the little guy who does not have the same resources and therefore cannot follow their dreams.

gee, isn't this Warren Buffets company?
Benghazi is still the real scandal
My back is still not good today, ugh. So again very light day for me.
I have skimmed through the headlines and top stories today and what bothers me most is how the media refuses to look seriously into the Benghazi story or cover-up.
It is now a fact President Obama lied no one believes he claimed the attack on the Consulate on Spetember 11, 2013 was a terrorist attack. If that were the case why was he promoting the video lie 12 days later at the U.N.?
The press understands if they look too closely into Bengahzi it will reveal the President of the United States told a tall story and then pointed their guns at Romney who came out the night of the attack in Cairo and denounced the WH weakness in apologizing for a video made by an American citizen. A video no one saw but became the main talking poionts for the administration to claim it was a spontaneous attack.
The reason President Obama was no where to be found after his 5:00pm briefing is simple. If was a spontaneous attack why would he be involved? If it were an attack on a Consulate by Al Qaeda then he would be in the situation room.
While the CIA may not have known exact details the State Department certainly did and from the emails released we see the State Department was feverishly trying to manipulate the talking points.
It should be noted too, there are two days of emails missing from the email dump late yesterday afternoon. It certainly looks more and more like a cover-up.
I don't expect for a minute Obama will be impeached but if the press does any type of real reporting on Benghazi it will be apparent Obama lied to win an election and hide the truth from the American people which means he will have lost any crdebility and therefore any possiblity of moving his Statist agenda forward.

Yesterday this man dared America to impeach him
Does the truth matter?
Barak Obama during a press briefing yesterday on Benghazi:
"There's no there there," Obama said. "The fact that this keeps on getting churned up, frankly, has a whole lot to do with political motivations.”
Yes, Mr. President you are absolutely correct politics is at the heart of leaving an Ambassador and 3 Americans to be murdered by an Al Qaeda affiliate in Benghazi on September 11, 2012 two months before a Presidential election.
It is you and your administration that “dishonor”, “disrespect”, and makes a “political circus” out of their deaths when you create a "spontaneous protest" video story which originated in Washington not in Libya. A story refuted by the Americans on duty in Libya during the attack on the consulate in Benghazi, and the officials of the Libyan government.
The highest American diplomat on the scene in Libya spoke directly with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by phone, and told her that it was a terrorist attack. The president of Libya announced that it was a terrorist attack. The C.I.A. told the Obama administration that it was a terrorist attack.
The nail in the coffin, so to speak, was the 12 drafts of the talking points on Benghazi
which have come to light. As draft after draft of the talking points were made, e-mails from the State Department pressured the intelligence services to omit from these drafts their clear and
unequivocal statement from the outset that this was a terrorist attack.
President Obama was informed about the terrorist attack on our Consulate in Benghazi and told his staff to handle it.
We sent no one to help these men, we left them.
Some would argue we could not have gotten there in time. That is garbage, no one knew at that time how long the firefight would go on unless they have something else they’d like to confess.
Former Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, said it best on Fox News Channel: "We went into Benghazi under the assumption that somehow there was going to be a massacre in Benghazi. So we went there to protect the Libyan people. We couldn't go into Benghazi to protect our own Americans who were serving there?"
While everyone is hung up on who changed the talking points I want to know who gave the orders to leave our people to die? Once we know that, we will know all we need to know.
We already know this President lied, that is not in dispute any longer. I want to know how cold hearted this man really is?
Yesterday he revealed his arrogance and disdain for America when he dared the media that built him and the Republicans investigating Benghazi to impeach him. His statement to the world, in essence was, you won’t dare impeach the first black President.
What we tolerate with this President we will accept with the next. Truth does matter and the evidence must be followed and the American people must be informed. If we have to take out ads to inform the people because the press will not, so be it, our freedom rests on it.

Who is this woman?
Claire Shipman is a news reporter at ABC News. She's married to White House Press Secretary Jay Carney.
Jay Carney was a journalist at MSNBC before he was plucked by this White House.
America, the White House and the Media are in bed together, literally. There is no way these relationships at ABC, CNN, CBS and MSNBC are not conflicts of interests.
Don't you remember the Left trying to tell us that Clarence Thomas should recuse himself from the Affordable Care Act Supreme Court decision because his wife spoke out against it?!
Remember what I told you yesterday, whatever the Left accuses their opponents of doing it is because they are the ones engaging in the behavior.
The least you can do for yourself, your family, and your country is listen to the opposing side before you make up your mind. Think, don't just let pictures and headlines steer your decisions. Remember your own biases and check yourself. I don't think my side is pure. However, he is what I do know; the media is dominated with people of the Left. My news is delivered through a filter of that bias so I need to seek out news sources on the other side of the debate to make sure my sources are presenting all the facts, most times they are not. Fill in the gaps and sit it on don't decide immediately.
Media Deception lesson 101
These are the headlines on Politico, it is one of the top websites in news media today. Understand how media works they use words precisely and choose images to relay the message they want you to receive. They are leading you around like a puppy, but once you understand the lens they report through it’s an inoculation from it.
First headline: “Obama stares down the curse” under image: “bad news, both foreign and domestic keeps, piling up under his door step”
The image is a profile of concerned man, palm down trying to explain. A non threatening pose and one we can all relate to right? Who hasn’t found themselves under fire in stressful situations that were put upon us and we found ourselves defending ourselves against forces opposed to us.
Notice the line under his image is bad news keeps piling up. It’s not his doing he didn’t do anything wrong. It’s NOT HIS FAULT when in fact everything he is up against is his own making. He lied to the American people two months out before a Presidential election. He and the media have done everything they can to bury the story but those pesky evil Republican’s will not let the story die.
Second Headline: “Boehner’s fixation: Benghazi” under the image: “He’s making it a defining political fight.”
Image is frontal and the face is more combative. The message, the fight is on, he will stop at nothing to bring down his opponent. He’s an attack dog.
Third Headline: “Renewed drive to ease sequester”
The image is a Democrat trying to fight for you. Too simple
Fourth Headline: “5 questions on the IRS debacle”
The image you the little guy looking up a big flight of stairs at the looming sign of Internal Revenue Service. They are big and powerful and the connotation we all have is negative. But the words are a deception. A debacle is a system collapse or failure. The fact the IRS deliberately targeted people and groups on the Right are not a systemic failure it is a deliberate act of political intimidation by a political opponent. See, the building is the problem not the occupants in the White House.
Fifth Headline: “Barbara Walters to retire in 2014”
Really, who cares but I suppose we are to be sad that an era is passing on.
CT 707
This is Nir Maman he is a former soldier in Israel’s elite Counter Terrorist units. He has taken Krav Maga to the next evolution in hand to hand combat and I have been fortunate enough to train with him and with fellow practitioner’s who know and understand his method.
CT707 is the most efficient method to end a violent confrontation. As a woman I look for methods to do not require strength but can be used to neutralize or counter a larger attacker and this is it.
His simple fix, as I call it or method, is “head control”. Once you control the head, you control the body. I’ve posted some of his video’s here in the past, however until you’ve taken his course or been in a school which teaches his method you cannot appreciate how simple and effective it is. It ends the confrontation, which for a woman is all I want. I know I will not win a fight against a larger stronger assailant if the fight lasts too long.
In this video Nir is teaching state police shooting tactics. Listen closely in the beginning, because he states half of his philosophy for any encounter. In Israel each unit trains and develops techniques in order to subdue or kill. They would rather subdue, however that is not always possible and the movements must be fluid to address either situation, to move without thinking, to react instinctively.
The guy is awesome, enjoy!

The Truth about the Media's relationship and reporting
The Media is the real news story and here’s why, David Rhoades is President of CBS News, over at ABC Ben Sherwood is President of News and both have siblings working at the White House that, not only work for President Obama but work at the National Security Council on foreign policy issues directly related to Benghazi.
Additionally, CNN Deputy Bureau Chief Virginia Mosley is married to Hillary Clinton’s Deputy Tom Nides. So it turns out news is a family matter and they cover for them.
The News media chose a near blackout of media coverage on the three Whistleblowers. MSNBC gave the hearings zero time, CBS gave it seven minutes, ABC gave it three minutes.
The Washington Post said the only people concerned about the hearings were those worried about Chick-Fi-Lay.
The Associated Press, a news wire, called them GOP hearings.
The elites demonstrate time and again their disdain for the American people.
However, looked at a different way it could be a compliment. The fact that they won’t give you the truth tells you all you need to know. Even the media knows if you were given all the facts you might draw the wrong conclusions.
Conservatives have understood for a long time the media is biased, but since the coronation of Barak Obama, and make no mistake about it a coronation it is; the media have thrown off the veil of neutrality and have become White House advocates. They hold weekly meetings with the White House, they marry each other, they socialize together, and they cover for the White House.
The Benghazi hearings this week were a direct refutation of what the White House has been peddling for eight months. The media understood if the American people heard the three highly decorated career employee’s at the State Department and Counter terrorism units give their personal accounts of the facts The One and Hillary Clinton would be in trouble so they didn’t show them.
Here are the 5 important things we learned from the hearings this week.
1. There were multiple stand-down orders, not just one.
2. Ambassador Stevens’ reason for going to Benghazi has been cleared up.
4. Whistleblowers were intimidated into silence
5. “The YouTube movie was a non-event in Libya.”
We could also throw into the mix that Democrats were trying to destroy credibility rather than seek facts and most important is if we want to get to the bottom of this story and understand the truth Congress is not a great way to do it.
We are told by the media and the Democrats that this is a partisan “witch hunt” and “just politics” and therefore is a non event. Well, politics it is, but both sides are playing it and what’s worse is Democrats and the media are risking everything in order to cover a cover-up for their guys.
The difference between the Left and Right is the Left see’s every issue as political, and I do mean everything. It is the Postmodernist revolution launched at the Frankfurt School from Columbia University and was taught to Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama at the feet of Saul Alinsky.
Its an important but often overlooked truism about the Left, whatever they accuse their opponents of engaging in it is they who are the ones are engaging in it.
As Peggy Noonan pointed out Friday, “The Obama White House sees every event as a political event. Really, every event, even an attack on a consulate and the killing of an ambassador.”
What is disturbing is Greg Hicks was given several stand down orders. Who gave those orders? Only Barak Obama can give stand down orders, and if not him, than who exceeded their authority?
However, the most disturbing still is at 3:00 a.m. Greg Hicks was called by the Libyan President and informed Ambassador Chris Stevens was deceased. He then picked up the phone and called Hillary and Washington and left messages. He did not get a call back that night or the next day. Why?
Peggy Noonan may have the most disturbing answer of all:
The implication is clear, from the moment the attack started the Presidential political wing of the White House kicked into gear, NOT the concern for the people on the ground. No, I don’t think they wanted the people to die, but with only 8 weeks to go in a Presidential election everything the Obama narrative would be scrutinized.
Hillary was right during her primary election run ad when she ran the 3:00 a.m. call commercial. Its 3:00 a.m. in the morning and the phone at the White House is ringing, is the person who picks it up going to do the right thing?
For “true believers,” the end justifies the means, however, they may be about to find out the American people have little tolerance for putting our children’s lives in the hands of those who are supposed to be protecting us and don’t.
Throughout Obama’s service we have seen time and again the politicization of career posts from the FBI, the CIA, IRS, the State Department, and now the Military?!
The latest trouble emerging is the IG (Inspector General) has opened an investigation on the accountability review board who investigated what happened in Benghazi September 11, 2013. It turns out there are some omissions in the report. For example they never interviewed Hillary Clinton. Additionally, one of the people in charge of the report held an interim position that was never confirmed by congress but was appointed by Hillary Clinton.
The truth does matter Hillary and
for the sake of America I hope we get to the bottom of this so we can make sure the person picking up the phone at the White House cares more about peoples’ lives than they do about
politics.
Fox News Watch Panel on Benghazi Hearings
May 10, 2013
America is ignoring the increasingly dangerous threats to our homeland
The thing which keeps niggling at the back of my mind when puzzling over the cover-up with Benghazi is why the Administration is trying so hard to cover-up an attack on our Consulate? Everyone knows we’re at war. Yes, there should have been more security and the Administration could with stand such a hit, especially with such a dotting media then why not just let it out. Why demote and threaten career veterans?
Well, what if we found out the weapons used in the attack on our Benghazi Consulate resulted from an arms deal by the US to the Syrian Rebels were in fact the same weapons used to murder 3 Americans and a US Ambassador?
CIA covert arms shipments to Syrian rebels through Benghazi.
‘Separately, a second intelligence source said CIA operations in Libya were based on a presidential finding signed in March 2011 outlining covert support to the Libyans. This source said there were signs that some of the arms used in the Benghazi attack — assault rifles, mortars and rocket-propelled grenades — ended up in the hands of the terrorists who carried out the Benghazi attack as a result of the CIA operation in Libya.
‘The unanswered questions — that appear unasked by most congressional investigators — include whether the CIA facility in Benghazi near the diplomatic compound and the contingent of agency officers working there played a role in the covert transfer through Turkey of captured Libyan weapons or personnel to rebels fighting the Bashar Assad regime in Syria.
‘“There was a ship that transported something to Turkey around the time Ambassador Chris Stevens met with a Turkish diplomat within hours of his murder,” the official said. “Was the president's overt or covert policy to arm Syrian rebels?”’
Indeed, this would be another, in an increasingly long list of dangerous thinking on the part of this Administration.
How about asking yourself, why would China help this administration rein in N. Korea all of a sudden? It wouldn’t help Clinton or Bush before this?
What if we abandoned the missile defense shields that would protect America from a nuclear missile strike in Alaska & California?
Mr. Kerry brought a carrot that Beijing apparently found hard to resist. He offered to cancel the planned deployment of 14 additional ground-based interceptors at U.S. missile defense bases in Alaska and California if China did more to stifle North Korean bellicosity. The deployments were announced recently in response to North Korean missile threats.
Leaving California defenseless may be tempting, however the interceptors were to protect all of America from an attack launched by Pacific Nations not just the Leftist’s in California.
Leaving California defenseless may be tempting, however the interceptors were to protect all of America from an attack launched by Pacific Nations not just the Leftist’s in California.
One has to ask why China cares if America protects itself from missile attacks by rogue nations, but let us not go there.
What is stunning is this Administration is sacrificing American’s safety in order to thump his chest and claim victory over his predecessors all the while the truth is no previous President was stupid enough to believe missiles capable of reaching American shores can be trusted in the hands of 28 year old megalomaniac whom we know nothing about.
Then again, this is the same President who has been strutting around pretending he is negotiating with Iran over its nuclear bomb manufacturing while simultaneously allowing it to become the dominant leader in the region.
How many American’s know Iraq is on the verge of failure, if not already failed and fallen into the hands of Iran?
American’s are allowing themselves to be drugged up on stories about Jody Arias, a titillating murder/explicit sexual stories trial while this President is leading us closer and closer toward a den of lions.
Let’s not forget the building warning signs like:
Hassan Nidal who let loose a murderous rampage while screaming Allahu Akbar turns out, according to this administration, not to be a radical jihadist, but “work place violence.”
The Boston Bombers were just “self radicalized boys” even though we were alerted by Russian & Saudi intelligence that one of the “boys” had ties to radical Muslims and our intelligence community while under the watchful eye of Home Land Secretary Janet Napolitano ignored the warnings. This is the same women who freed dangerous criminals onto the streets of America in order to score political points (which back fired) for her boss on Sequestration.
Let’s not forget Faisal Shazhad another radical Muslim jihadist who was only caught because an alert citizen in New York City thought an abandoned vehicle on the street was strange. It turns out he wasn’t really a radical Muslim he was upset because George W. Bush’s economy made him lose his job and house. Additionally, we were told the system worked, huh?!
The underwear bomber whose bomb didn’t go off because of sweat was not a radical jihadist whom was allowed to board a plane even though the bombers father alerted authorities he had become radicalized. No, according to Janet Napolitano the “system worked.” Tada, see nothing to see here, let’s just move along.
We were told the same thing about the Boston Bombers, the “system worked.” You might ask yourself how dumb this administration thinks the American people were if it weren’t working so well.
The willful ignorance on the part of this administration along with a doting media and an opposition party whose too busy trying to be liked rather than doing what is right are all leading us into some very dangerous times ahead.

NAVY SEAL TEAM VI FAMILIES TO REVEAL GOVERNMENT’S CULPABILITY IN DEATH OF THEIR SONS IN FATAL HELICOPTER CRASH IN AFGHANISTAN FOLLOWING SUCCESSFUL RAID ON BIN LADEN’S COMPOUND
DATE: THURSDAY MAY 9, 2013
PLACE: NATIONAL PRESS CLUB (HOLEMAN LOUNGE)
529 14th Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20045
TIME: 10 AM – 11 AM
Three families of Navy SEAL Team VI special forces servicemen, along with one family of an Army National Guardsman, will appear at a press conference on May 9, 2013, to disclose never before revealed information about how and why their sons along with 26 others died in a fatal helicopter crash in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011, just a few months after the successful raid on the compound of Osama Bin Laden that resulted in the master terrorist’s death.
Accompanying the families of these dead Navy SEAL Team VI special operations servicemen will be retired military experts verifying their accounts of how and why the government is as much responsible for the deaths of their sons as is the Taliban.
The areas of inquiry at the press conference will include but not be limited to:
- How President Obama and Vice President Biden, having disclosed on May 4, 2011, that Navy SEAL Team VI carried out the successful raid on Bin Laden’s compound resulting in the master terrorist’s death, put a retaliatory target on the backs of the fallen heroes.
- How and why high-level military officials sent these Navy SEAL Team VI heroes into battle without special operations aviation and proper air support.
- How and why middle-level military brass carries out too many ill-prepared missions to boost their standing with top-level military brass and the Commander-in-Chief in order that they can be promoted.
- How the military restricts special operations servicemen and others from engaging in timely return fire when fired upon by the Taliban and other terrorist groups and interests, thus jeopardizing the servicemen’s lives.
- How and why the denial of requested pre-assault fire may have contributed to the shoot down of the Navy SEAL Team VI helicopter and the death of these special operations servicemen.
- How Afghani forces accompanying the Navy SEAL Team VI servicemen on the helicopter were not properly vetted and how they possibly disclosed classified information to the Taliban about the mission, resulting in the shoot down of the helicopter.
- How military brass, while prohibiting any mention of a Judeo-Christian God, invited a Muslim cleric to the funeral for the fallen Navy SEAL Team VI heroes who disparaged in Arabic the memory of these servicemen by damning them as infidels to Allah. A video of the Muslim cleric’s “prayer” will be shown with a certified translation.
“This press conference takes on special significance given that our government has over the last twelve years since September 11th committed brave American servicemen to wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that, in large part as a result of politics, were poorly conceived of and implemented, resulting in the deaths of thousands and the maiming of tens of thousands of our brave heroes. To make matters even worse, America has effectively lost these wars,” stated Larry Klayman, legal counsel for the families.
Postmodernists, the Joseph Goebbels of today
The Leftist ideology where all things are filtered through the prism of politics
The World today has more information available at its fingertips,
almost instantaneously, than any other time in history and yet, at the same time we seem to be at a moment where more than any other era in American history our public knows nothing. Alright, I’ll
qualify that, they know about Hollywood and a Mountain Dew commercial made by a black rapper, but they don't know about the news which effects our lives in significant ways such as the economy or
foriegn affairs.
For example, they either don’t know or don't care the President of the United States and his Secretary of State may have been involved in a cover up where an Ambassador and three other American’s were murdered in a country we had liberated just months earlier by an Al-Qaeda affiliate on 9/11/12.
I have this argument with my Rabbi frequently, he is correct when he tells me the information I know is readily available for everyone to see. Where he makes his mistake is he believes because the information is readily available for everyone to see it therefore levels the playing field between the Left & Right.
The major network news organizations have lost a large percentage of their viewership to other media outlets. What he seems to think is because we now have FoxNews, The Washington Times, Talk radio, the editorial page of the Wall St. Journal, and blogs - we captivate the same size audience. It's just not so and time after time we see bloggers taking their phones and turning them into video cameras and talking to the public.
Steven Crowder is just one example of a self made journalist showing how woefully ignorant our public
is.
I can demonstrate this point all day, but if you are interesting in seeing more demonstrations to this point go here, here, and here to start.
There is only so much work I’m willing to do for you. And I think this is the point, our public is either too lazy or just doesn’t care about the matters of the world or what our government officials are doing.
Today the Left has an enormous influence over people. We have a generation raised on Postmodernism, the child of Progressivism which teaches our children America and the West are bad. They receive a distorted view of history in which everything is viewed through the prism of politics. Politics, which by the way, teaches our children the simple nonstop message that the Left is good and the Right is bad. Every single issue our children are fed a steady diet of propaganda so impeccable Joseph Goebbels would have been awe struck. Through this prism of lies our politics have been woven into their conscience of thinking. It is so automatic that no one even questions it. So well done is this propaganda that we have taught our children how NOT to think. Our children have been raised to be mindless foot soldiers. So well has this been done that now a person believes anyone who claims his or her point of view is right, of another point of view, is wrong is a bigot or a phobic.
Yesterday the world was told that the highest levels of our government have engaged in a cover up involving the murder of four Americans. Three whistleblowers sat before Congress and declared that our government lied about a video that led to a protest outside the consulate in Benghazi was the reason for these murders. The intelligence never said this, not for a second. Yet, this is the NY Times reporting on the issue. First, it’s buried in the second column have way down on the website.
Headline: Diplomat Says Benghazi Questions Led to Demotion
First Paragraph: A veteran diplomat gave a riveting minute-by-minute account on Wednesday of the lethal terrorist attack in Benghazi, Libya, last Sept. 11 and described its contentious aftermath at a charged Congressional hearing that reflected the weighty political stakes perceived by both parties.
Six Paragraphs into the story we get this, In the balance, in the view of both Democrats and Republicans, is not just the reputation of Mr. Obama but also potentially the prospects for the 2016 presidential election as well, since Mrs. Clinton
There is so much wrong with this statement I don’t know where to begin. We are informed both Democrats and Republicans agree the testimony damages Mr. Obama (Note the change from President when he does something wrong to Mr. it is a quite subliminal message here, downgrade the title to diminish its authority.) but also Hillary Clinton’s presidential election???? Seriously?!?!?
This is Leftist speak (you used to know it as Orwellian “newspeak”) for both Democrats and Republicans know President Obama and Hillary Clinton engaged in a cover-up at the highest levels of government and WE, the New York Times, are going to do our best to diminish this damming testimony and move along.
This is how they do it, through a prism of politics. The Left makes everything the opposition does political while they pretend to stand on the side of righteousness. This is reflected throughout everything we are fed today.
Sitcoms have become soap boxes for Leftist moralizing. News media outlets filter their news through an array of misdirection, straw man arguments, and lies.
The facts about Benghazi are available for all to see if one wants to find the truth, however we have been conditioned to believe any information obtained through talk radio or FoxNews are all lies and any person on the Right is so detestable that a good person doesn’t even give their media the time of day.

I had a virus this morning and because I was cooking for 200 people on Friday I just didn’t have time today to deal with it.
Heather McDonald has an outstanding article today in the NY Post, The Madness of Liberal Moralizing. “The paradoxes of liberal morality were on glaring display last week. The Obama administration OK’d the sale of “Plan B” post-coital emergency contraception over the counter without prescription (or parental consent) to girls as young as 15. At the same time, the City Council moved a step closer to banning anyone under the age of 21 from buying cigarettes (the legal age is now 18).”
She summarizes this way: “The sexual revolution brought an explosion of out-of-wedlock births among adults and teens, despite the availability of new contraceptives. That rise in illegitimacy has imposed far higher costs in crime, prison and welfare than smoking ever has.
The demoralizing of juvenile sex has left us in the preposterous situation of viewing the decision to buy a pack of cigarettes as weightier, and more in need of an adult’s full cognitive and moral capacities, than a teen’s decision to have sexual intercourse.” Read the article in its entirety here.

“Objectivity is impossible, and it is also undesirable. That is, if it were possible it would be undesirable.” Howard Zinn
Howard Zinn is one of the most beloved and influential Modern Liberals’ of all time. He is the author of the text book most used in American history in the country
for primary schools and colleges. So when a man with this influence claims there is no objectivity and if there were it is not desirable he is inevitably leading people down a path that is evil,
failed, and wrong and against all that is good, right, and successful.
Take a step back for a moment and think about this statement.
When a person can say there is no such thing as truth, which is exactly what Zinn is saying an individual will not engage his intellect to seek out the rightful answers and therefore will become convinced by the best or most popular point of view. A viewpoint, by definition, that would be no more right or more valid than any and every other.
So how can it lead to all that is wrong, failed, and evil? If one believes all points of view are equally right and equally valid then the only wrong point of view would be the one who declares there is truth, right, and wrong. It is why the mindlessness of this ideology taught to our children from age 5 till college graduation must invariably lead a person to side with all that is evil and wrong. It is why it will always lead to failure over success every time.
The Torah (Bible) says there is objective truth, right, and wrong therefore by the standards set forth by the Left the Bible is evil because it makes distinctions and discriminates between behaviors that are moral and immoral.
Because this is the axiom of the Left they mindlessly push toward control of outcomes rather than allowing individuals to thrive and achieve by their own efforts. To achieve based on ones intellectual and physical efforts. So, in order to ensure the goal of the true believer is achieved he must prevent learning and adults from believing their eyes. That mechanism is to make a moral imperative out of the rejection of objective facts, objective standards and objective logic, to declare objectivity itself “impossible” on the one hand, and “undesirable” on the other.
Therefore the true believer, Barak Obama, George Soros, Warren Buffet, Ben Bernanke, most media outlets, the European Union, et. al. are leading the world toward failure. In order to believe what they are saying one must suspend all logic and believe an economy grows by spending vast amounts of other people’s money, support failed business models (Solyndra, Testla, Electric cars) and in order to pay for this one must create money out of thin air (printing $85 billion on month by the FED).
It is why the Left rejects all facts presented to it because facts mean nothing.
It is why one can declare self radicalization is not terrorism.
It is why it declares the sytem worked when a terrorist successfully launches a terrorist act (Boston bombing).
Israel and America founded on Judaism and Christianity are the most evil countries on the planet.
One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.
An elderly woman needs to be strip searched to board a plane but a young 18-30 year old male Muslim yelling Allahu Akbar can board a plane unchallenged.
It is why lower temperatures and soaring CO2 levels still means the world is globally warming.
It is why Barak Obama and the Left believe bitter glingers are people who attach themselves to G-d and gun. The truth and the ablility to defend truth are, for the Left, evil.
The fact is the Left’s model will always lead to poverty for most and only the richest of the rich, the one percent, will be ubar rich.
It is why perceptions and realities are the opposite of the ideal. Watch the video below.

Driving that train, high on your pain,
Obamacare is ready, watch your ass.
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.
Trouble ahead, communists in red,
Take my advice you’d be better off dead.
Reids been sleeping, Obamacare is
On the wrong track and headed for you.
Driving that train, high on your pain,
Obamacare is ready, watch your ass.
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.
Trouble with them is the trouble for us,
Got two good eyes but you still don’t see.
Come round and bend, you know it’s the end,
The doctor screams and the euthanasia machine just gleams…
Reid: We’re gonna need a lot more ObamaCare money to stop the train wreck
Let’s try to work this out, shall we. First, Max Baucus comes out and votes against the gun control law, because his constituency would fire him. Then he says the Obamacare law, you know the one that 42% of the American populace does not know is the law of the land, is a “train wreck.” Then a few days later Baucus announces his retiring.
Side bar: Either his no vote for the gun control was his constituency’s voice or his conscience, not that he was “bought off by the gun lobby” as Obama said.
Earlier this week Obama & his talking mouthpiece, Jay Carney insisted there were no problems with Obama Care roll out of implementation, for that matter, according to our illustrious leader, the American people are “already experiencing most of the benefits of the Affordable Care Act — even if they don’t know it.”
Do you have any idea how condescending that remark is?! It is a perfect illustration of my point when I say the Democrat party consists of the ignorant and arrogant and sometimes both.
Well Mr. President 85%-90% of American’s already had health insurance before the Orwellian named Affordable Health Care Act was created. Everything about the name of this law is wrong. It’s not affordable and its main objective is not healthcare its control.
This week we here from Harry Reid the Democrat Majority Leader, remember him? He’s the guy who stood up on the floor of the Senate and pleaded for federal money for cowboy poetry. Reid is the same guy who accused Mitt Romney of lying about his taxes, with no proof. Now, Reid shares his colleagues’ concerns that the Affordable Care Act could become a “train wreck” if it’s not implemented properly.
Reid warned that people will not be able to choo
se health insurance plans on government health exchanges if federal authorities lack the resources to set them up and educate the public.
“Max said unless we implement this properly it’s going to be a train wreck and I agree with him,” Reid said, echoing a warning delivered last month by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.).
Reid warned the federal government is not spending enough money to implement the law because of Republican opposition to ObamaCare. “Here’s what we have now, we have the menu but we don’t have any way to get to the menu,” Reid said.
That’s the Left’s answer for everything, more money. We’re broke but the Left soldiers on while ht FED creates money out of thin air, the economy limbs on, and the Democrat media covers for their party. Democrats said the law was going to cost $900 billion. As the Republican’s warned the law is going to cost $2.6 trillion because Obama and the Democrats back loaded the law over ten years. So each year the law unfolds the GAO rescores the law and we find out the number has been steadily climbing. Last I remember the number was nearly $1.6 trillion. Now we find out they never calculated the right amount of money this boondoggle needs for the implementation to erect this nightmare.
Rush Limbaugh wants to know why the Republican’s aren’t just trying to repeal the monstrosity; a large percentage of the population doesn’t even know it’s the law of the land. I can’t agree more!!!
I will add to this, not only don’t they know that ACA is the law of the land, I am sure the unbiased media hasn’t uttered a word about all the lies the Democrats told the American people. For example you will not be able to keep your plan if you like it. It will not bring down costs. There will be rationing complete with a death panel of 15 unelected bureaucrats who will make the decisions about whom and how much healthcare people receive.
The entire Leftist dream will be a nightmare just like every other time it has been tried throughout history.
