One excuse: Hillary beat him in popular vote. That’s totally irrelevant according to our Constitution. Also, Hillary beat Obama in the popular vote during the 2008 primary plus he needed the DNC Rules and Bylaws Cmte, headed by James Roosevelt, to change rules to favor Obama. He also got his delegate vote through caucus primary states, which are notoriously unreliable.. Like a good girl, Hillary ignored that and sacrificed herself to help Obama win.

Our president is a juvenile jerk. It’s important to him that he be whatever version of RadChic is current. His principles are those of a grad student in sociology, full of standard leftist ideology, plus the arrogance of someone who doesn’t realize his only “achievements” are affirmative action. He’s in Cuba and I guess David Brooks is happy because his pant creases are sharp.

Obama prances around like a banty rooster, thinking he’s accomplished something. As if no other president could have given the Castros everything they asked for, w/o demanding a single thing, including remuneration for American property seized or return of convicted felons hiding in Cuba or mercy for tortured and jailed dissidents. Other presidents had more pride in America than Obama, other presidents wouldn’t have listened to the anti-American rhetoric, other presidents wouldn’t have made America look this weak, other presidents wouldn’t have honored the butchery of a Che. Next? Castro will demand Gitmo be given to Cuba, so Obama will close Gitmo and oblige.

It’s a given that the American president Barack Obama loves to humiliate America. The question now is why Americans tolerate this, why we twice elected this man. Why do we allow him to abuse us in this very sick relationship?

What Obama should have said. http://babalublog.com/2016/03/21/the-speech-never-given-the-op-ed-never-published/

An Ivy League education plus a salary of $400K for being a lying fake Indian and all Elizabeth Warren can say about Donald Trump is that he’s Hitler, w/o actually using the word “Hitler.” What a disappointment, Liz. You don’t sound any smarter than a first-year community college student. http://legalinsurrection.com/2016/03/elizabeth-warren-unloads-on-loser-donald-trump//#more

Why conservatives, indies and Republicans don’t give a crap what the MSM and Democrats say about Trump: They’ve said the same thing about every conservative, indie, or Republican. Heck, Mitt Romney was about the nicest guy who ever ran for president but these same people called him sexist, racist, greedy, not able to understand ordinary Americans, a cheat and a Hitler. http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/262157/every-republican-presidential-candidate-hitler-daniel-greenfield

Here is the most cogent read available on where America is, what the rise of Trump means, and what elites have done and are doing to our country through their media voices.  It’s a short read and well worth the few minutes. http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2016/03/20/donald-trump-political-establishment-elites-tea-party-bourgeois-working-class-column/82047484/

First World Problems.  Soon we’re going to be dealing with survival. We assume that because we have so much liberty, so many privileges, so much prosperity and have had such a strong military that all these things were simply handed to us, that they will automatically be here forever. Nothing could be farther from the truth, as so many powerful nations have discovered. Usually, the end of the nation or that quality of life, when it comes, is rapid after a long, gradual decline.

As is typical, Europe is our warning but we keep ignoring the red alert. http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/262093/how-immigration-reform-would-re-form-america-michael-cutler

Obama excels at mocking his opposition and at retaining the MSM adoration. At everything else, especially national security and foreign policy, he sucks to a degree I would never have thought possible in America. http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/americas-air-supremacy-fading-fast-15458

This has been bubbling below the surface for a while, completely ignored by MSM. Same problem as 2008 housing bubble: Government [primarily Clinton through Carter’s CRA] forces lenders to give low cost or interest free auto loans to people who really can’t afford them and wouldn’t qualify for the credit to purchase a car. The gov’t charges illegal racism if lenders don’t oblige. The buyers, who are subprime credit risks, create a huge bundle of subprime loans on which many will default, leaving the lending banks/credit unions holding the bag. Since the gov’t partially guarantees these loans, the banks and taxpayers will ultimately bear the losses. Voila! An auto bubble bursts, with the MSM and the Obama gov’t blaming the banks/credit unions. http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20160314005687/en/Fitch-U.S.-Subprime-Auto-ABS-Delinquencies-Hit

News Roundup

Yeesh. Is there any chance of saving America from socialism? This is what happens when people begin to take peace, prosperity, free education, freedom, independence, food and more for granted in an admittedly imperfect nation. I strongly suspect we are going to get a painful lesson in the difference between whiny First Nation problems and survival. Will we end up Greece? Venezuela? France? It’s hard to tell, partly because those nations are in full-tilt upheaval. Maybe we’ll end up like Mexico because so many of that nation’s immigrants here don’t want to assimilate. They are invading to plunder, turning us into the poor barely-civilized places the left.

Obama and the Dems may indeed end up with the permanent liberal Dem majority they expect but so does Mexico and look what it’s done for that socialist nation, and most of Central/South America. It’s difficult for me to believe we are squandering our nation away. It won’t return once it’s gone.

A self-inflicted wound. Unless you have a monolithic customer base – as does the NYT and Chick-Fil-A – don’t get into politics. http://thefederalist.com/2016/03/04/lands-end-should-have-known-gloria-steinem-is-poison/

I don’t like Trump but we know the MSM elect our politicians, if you think the people are choosing our presidents, you are fooling yourself. The media chooses who is extreme, who is stupid, what to report on, what to ignore. Our media is overwhelmingly leftist. http://legalinsurrection.com/2016/03/new-tone-comedy-central-host-fantasizes-about-murdering-trump/#more

Are we Peak Banana Republic yet? When did we become a nation of sheep? When the media decide what is outrageous and what isn’t. http://freebeacon.com/politics/bidens-one-night-to-mexico-city-cost-538528-hotels/

This is where I’m at. I left the Dem Party because of all the lies and BS. They’re still lying, aided and abetted by the corrupt media. In fact, I don’t know how electing a GOP prez and retaining power in their hands will necessarily save us because the media will smear them. And of course, I’m not suggesting that the GOP is an honest party or that their politicians  are automatically more honest. But the media love the liberals, the liberal Democratic Party. That’s what I want to do, destroy the ability of the media to elect our presidents, our Congress, and dictate public opinion to sway leftward. Why do the media and the liberals want to become Western Europe and Scandinavia?

We knew what Cruz meant, he was dissing the liberal values and smugness of NYC elites. It had nothing to do with 911 when everyone – except extreme lefties – pulled together in support of NYC. Funny that no one got angry when Obama, other Dems and the media delivered contempt on the South, Appalachia or anyone who opposed them. Who apologized for ‘dumb hick racists’ and ‘bitter clingers’? No one, so kiss my grits. http://townhall.com/tipsheet/cortneyobrien/2016/01/15/ny-gov-who-told-conservatives-they-werent-welcome-says-cruz-should-apologize-for-values-comments-n2105186?utm_source=thdailypm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nl_pm&newsletterad=

Everything’s fine and if you don’t believe that, you’re one of those ‘dumb hick racist bitter clingers’ who isn’t living in NYC. http://www.donsurber.blogspot.com/2016/01/world-trade-stopped.html#more

It’s amazing to hear liberals attack Trump/Cruz or anyone not-liberal for speaking harshly or in a divisive manner. Where have you been for the last 8 years? The liberal hate, divisiveness, cruelty, socialism, demonization, and elitism have virtually ruined this nation. Trump is tame compared to Obama, Reid, Pelosi, DWS, the NYT or virtually anyone or media identifying as liberal. http://www.wsj.com/articles/obamas-legacy-trump-and-bernie-1452729424

“Hip chic” dictates the hatred of Israel, the acceptance of any Islam behavior, and fervent support of anything pro-Palestinian. Israeli supporters have long complained of the Facebook double standard that allows anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli hatred while shutting down any anti-Palestinian or anti-Islam postings. Facebook denied it so a group tested them by posting identical news in new accounts entitled ‘Stop Israel’ and ‘Stop Palestinians.’ Facebook was forced to admit that, yes, they did react differently. You can imagine how. http://www.algemeiner.com/2016/01/08/facebook-finally-caves-on-anti-israel-hate-pages/#

News you weren’t supposed to know

But I’ll tell you, just in case you’re too busy to spend time wandering the web.

Me, I’m taking my disabled sister for a checkup. Not about her eyes, just general checkup. After reading the post yest about the Eyes, I’m not sure I made it clear than in David Bonnet Syndrome, your brain can only store and possibly replay images that you actually saw before you went blind. IOW, if you go to Ireland now that you’re blind and people describe it to you, you won’t see those images in your head in the future because you didn’t actually see it when you had your sight.

This petition to stop the German Oktoberfest is started by a Dutch Muslim: http://www.theamericanmirror.com/it-begins-muslim-petitions-munich-to-end-anti-islamic-oktoberfest/. Hey, he tried to ignore the drinking and public nudity but it’s just so anti-Islam. Big eyes on a little man since he lives in the Netherlands. Not understanding democracy, where we all ignore stuff we don’t like.

Income for white Americans nation-wide declined nearly 2% in 2014 and nobody gives a hoot but income for blacks in Minnesota – controlled by liberal Democrats – and it’s a disgrace. No other racial group other than whites lost income in 2014. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/09/black-income-decline-in-minnesota-termed-disgraceful.

Of course these numbers are fake. Why do you think they’re always -quietly – revising them? Do you think any Dem could win any election next year, or even this year as gov in KY, if people clearly knew the pathetic state of our economy? Too weak to even survive a measly .25% hike in the interest  rate, according to Obama-appointed stooge Janet Yellin. http://nypost.com/2015/08/17/department-of-labor-needs-to-own-up-to-fake-unemployment-numbers/  You know the stats at Census and other depts. are lies, too.

If you really want to see what’s happening in America, how it’s being “radically transformed,” look at the colleges. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2015/08/white-students-at-washington-state-expected-to-defer-to-non-white-students-if-they-expect-to-do-well-in-class/ I know Washington State modified the racist, sexist, anti-American syllabus of the “Women and Popular Culture” class but I didn’t hear that this other class was modified.

Google is indeed evil. One way is to radically transform its search engine to highlight liberal articles and ignore more conservative ones. Naturally people click on the top articles and thus reinforce the selection of liberal information. That’ especially true in climate change info. http://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/09/09/exclusive-search-page-for-realist-side-of-the-climate-change-debate-2/

Remember, when liberals say they tolerate everything but intolerance, they think they’re being clever. There’s no self-awareness in that statement.

First up, today’s uber-liberal Episcopal Church which tolerates everything and stands for nothing. Okay, that’s harsh but it sure seems that way sometimes. They’ve finally discovered something they can’t tolerate. Climate change or whatever, yeah, they’ve got no tolerance for a climate that changes. Actually, they can’t tolerate people who deny that climate change is caused by humans. They can’t tolerate me. Well, that’s a compliment. I saw the head of an Episcopalian seminary on tv a couple of years ago and the words or message of God, Jesus, Bible, Scripture, Christian, love or the like weren’t ever in her vocabulary. She was angry, sneering, and contemptuous that anyone, anywhere, anytime would question or try to limit any woman getting an abortion for any reason at any point of the pregnancy, even if the fetus were viable, in the last day of pregnancy. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/04/green-weenie-of-the-week-needs-corrections.php

A most entertaining narrative of a diversity moment in today’s academia. When colleges rely on feelings, whose feelings take top priority? Sadly, there will be a conflict of feelings at some point. http://davidthompson.typepad.com/davidthompson/2015/03/are-you-not-feeling-the-positive-vibrations.html

Recall that Obama wants to put the UN in control of climate change directives, as well as the Iran nuke treaty. http://hotair.com/archives/2015/03/30/who-chief-wants-to-drive-tobacco-companies-out-of-business/

Everything must die so that Climate Change might live. Birds and bats have to die for windmills and trees have to die for solar panels, and humans just simply must die to preserve natal resources.

Or comparable social sciences products, notably the Grievance Studies.

Some anti-Israel BDS-ers got hold of the officers of the Virginia State Bar, which dumped this shocking news late Friday night onto its attorney-members. This won’t stand. It’s blatantly discriminatory and an insult to Jewish lawyers in Virginia. Please note that the VSB is the required state-governed body for Virginia lawyers; the Virginia Bar Association is a voluntary and different organization. William Jacobson at http://www.legalinsurrection.com and Judicial Watch are joining forces to file FOIA requests as to the genesis [no pun intended] of this despicable act. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/the-virginia-bar-disgraces-itself.php

For more anti-Semitism, it’s hard to match a far left self-hating Jew named Blumenthal. http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/blumenthal-pathology_901609.html?page=1

It might take you a minute to realize it’s satire. For now. http://captaincapitalism.blogspot.com/2015/03/uc-berkeley-study-shows-2-in-1-women.html

When a human baby is a “choice,” it becomes a “thing.” Keep calling it a “fetus,” liberals, then you can cut open a woman 7 1/2 months pregnant, cut out that fetus/baby, and when that baby [hey it breathed and lived for a while so doesn’t that FINALLY fulfill the liberal definition of baby] later dies, the attacker can’t be tried for murder. Insane. Liberals wouldn’t let this happen to a dog. Literally. http://www.redstate.com/2015/03/29/cut-baby-woman-kill-isnt-murder-colorado/

I’m thinking ‘sick’ cause I got a nasty stomach bug this week, something I rarely succumb to and now I’m a little puny but fine. Havoc with the asthma. Hoping I didn’t pass it on to my had and I hope you are avoiding viruses this time of year.

News dump Friday looks especially egregious today, with consequences lasting far longer than a few days and a lot more deadly.

Another pro-life religious fanatic who should be thrown ….. oh wait. http://www.bluegrasspundit.com/2015/03/pro-abortion-supporter-throws-molotov.html

Sick and dumb. I’m betting an editorial board of white liberals who want to prove they’re tolerant. http://newsbusters.org/blogs/kristine-marsh/2015/03/26/fortune-names-ferguson-activists-worlds-50-greatest-leaders

The War on Women was always a lie, designed to create another permanent class of victims, too scared to vote anything but liberal Democrat, and prepare the way for a Hillary presidency. Yep, it helped keep women in the plantation against a Palin vice-president, corralled them against a terrifying Mitt Romney, and shelter the poor babies on campus. Over and over again the campus rape crisis has been proven fraudulent. http://www.mindingthecampus.com/2015/03/the-rape-epidemic-on-campus-does-not-exist/

There is a rape crisis alright but it’s not in the US. There’s one in Britain, where the perpetrators were Muslim Pakistani immigrants and the police/politicians and everyone white allowed it to continue to staggering proportions to avoid being called ‘racist’ or ‘xenophobe’ or ‘anti-immigration’ or ‘Islamophobe.’ Remember when I said a nation, like a family, is only as sick as its lies? Britain has been very sick indeed. http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5386/british-girls-raped-oxford?anid=7

Note the prejudice; lefties believe and desperately need to believe, the stereotype of a rube. Just like Obama does. It’s a shortcut to real thinking. Country music = Islamophobic. See how easy that was?  http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/msnbc-home-of-the-incompetent-and-the-bigoted.php

Observe the differing headlines. WaPo notes that because of increased complaints, mostly sex discrimination, the Dept of Education needs to add 300 [!!] new workers to deal with the complaints. College Insurrection spells out the real truth: Two people -2- are responsible for over 1,700 of those complaints. This is madness on a corrupt and bureaucratic scale.  http://collegeinsurrection.com/2015/03/two-people-have-filed-over-1700-sex-discrimination-complaints-with-the-dept-of-education/

And this may be the sickest thing I’ve every seen, and I’ve seen a lot at my age. A children’s book in the voice of a 3-year-old who celebrates that her older sister was aborted. They’d be crucified by popular outrage if they killed a healthy or even sick puppy but abortion is fine…..when you’re aborting humans. BTW, the author is a teacher at SMU, where the M is Methodist.

When Lee’s Papa asked, “[D]oes that make you sad or scared?” Lee changed his tune. “I’m not sad that my sister is a ghost! If you kept my sister, you would be tired, and sad, and mad!” When his father questioned why, Lee continued: – See more at: http://newsbusters.org/blogs/katie-yoder/2015/03/25/childrens-book-about-abortion-my-sister-happy-ghost#sthash.j0nrj6gt.dpuf

This frost me up good, not simply the blatant hypocrisy of both the MSM and the Dems but the trashing of decorated war veteran Sen Tom Cotton. Hypocrisy? The GOP letter is nothing compared to Dem intervention with presidents, including John Kerry’s cross-currents with President Ronald Reagan but the absolute worst was Sen Ted’s Kennedy’s offer to negotiate a better deal with the Russians if they’d help him defeat the reelection of Reagan. Kennedy never denied the letter, only that it was “misinterpreted,” but that comes as close to treason as anything I’ve seen in politics. . Here’s some egregious examples: http://yidwithlid.blogspot.com/2015/03/senators-letter-to-iran-unprecidented.html and http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/the-lefts-new-definition-of-treason.php.

I saw Sen Cotton on Megyn Kelly last night and he ignored the incendiary rhetoric to make substantive arguments, including whether what Obama is negotiating with Iran is a binding agreement. John Kerry agreed today that it’s not, raising questions as to the Dem protests. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/sen-cotton-responds.php

I hate the racist rhetoric of the Obama administration, EVERYTHING must be seen through the race prism and I was furious that they gave the Human Rights Council of the United Nations a reason to chastise the “racist” US, since that Council has the likes of Cuba, Syria, etc. I equally hate that the Dems give credence to a chastisement of the GOP senators by Iranian leaders, lecturing people like Cotton and McConnell on US civics. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/our-supreme-leader-and-theirs.php

NYT columnist Roger Cohen, avowed liberal, mocked the GOP senators as rubes, saying they couldn’t find Iran on a map, an especially egregious insult to Iraq and Afghan war veteran Cotton. Oops, the NYT actually can’t find Iran on a map. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/03/who-cant-find-iran-on-a-map.php

The craziness that is the lefty Democratic Party today, not your father’s DP. http://hotair.com/archives/2015/03/11/petition-to-have-gop-senators-charged-for-sending-letter-to-iran-draws-more-than-140000-signatures/
