We Can't Afford Any More Obama Foreign Policy Successes.

Yesterday in the White House.

Here is a listing from the Pentagon of what we "lost" when we abandoned Yemen and is now in the hands of Al-Qaeda and/or ISIS.  Or at least the stuff they are willing to confirm.

God help us, because our government isn't.  

When you go to bed tonight, be sure to kiss your babies and tell them you love them.   

President Obama's Violation of Separation of Power

Barack Obama And The IRS Non-Scandal

Dr. Benjamin Carson, the former director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, said he and his family were targeted by the IRS in retribution for comments critical of Barack Obama

According to Carson, audits and other harassment began in May or June of 2013, just a few months after his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast. Gradually, he added, the harassment expanded to include family members, associates, and his charitable endeavors.

"I’ve been quite -- I would say astonished at the level of hostility that I have encountered. The IRS has investigated me. They said, ‘I want to look at your real estate holdings.’ There was nothing there. ‘Well, let’s expand to an entire [year], everything.’ There was nothing there. ‘Let’s do another year.’ Finally, after a few months, they went away. But they’ve come after my family, they’ve come after my friends, they’ve come after associates,"

But it's all just a big coincidence...





Lois Lerner did nothing wrong, but she won't testify regarding the actions that occurred under her direction.




Although emails has surfaced recently that indicate that maybe Lois was indeed creating new rules withing in the IRS would place applications from Conservative groups on their own "Double Secret Probation" that would discourage them from moving forward.    

"The Treasury Department and Lerner started devising the new rules “off-plan,” meaning that their plans would not be published on the public schedule. They planned the new rules in 2012, while the IRS targeting of conservative groups was in full swing, and not after the scandal broke in order to clarify regulations as the administration has suggested.

The rules place would place much more stringent controls on what would be considered political activity by the IRS, effectively limiting the standard practices of a wide array of non-profit groups."

Maybe she was actually able to put her plan into place:





But as we have learned from MSNBC, all these Tea Party groups are evil and their money is corrupting and overpowering the American political process. 

Looking at these numbers, keep in mind that the rules that the Democrats and their political appointees withing the IRS are proposing provide exemptions for unions.  Because everyone knows that unions are not political. Plus, we have receive the absolute final word from no less than The President of The United States Barak Obama, "Not even a smidgen of corruption".  Right?

"IRS official Sarah Hall Ingram made 155 visits to the White House to meet with a top Obama White House official with whom she exchanged confidential taxpayer information over email.

Of Ingram’s 165 White House meetings with White House staff, a staggering 155 of them were hosted by deputy assistant to the president for health policy Jeanne Lambrew"

But this is just a bunch of racist Tea Party kooks trying to bring down Barack Obama by any means they can.  If there were actually anything to this alleged "scandal", the press would all over this like they are on Chris Christie's bridge closing.  



But in the words of Hilary Clinton, "What difference, at this point, does it make?"

So Many LIes, No One Cares Anymore

Uhhhh.....

Hitler Lost His Doctor, And So Will You

New study from Harvard University showing that Medicare patients used the Emergency Room 40% more than people with no insurance, which is about the exact opposite negative number projected by the Democrats when they were selling ObamaCare as cutting long term healthcare costs. And the study showed the vast majority of those ER visits were non-emergency issues better suited for a primary care physician. Opponents (including me) had predicted that with fewer 'in network' options, non-emergency use of ER services would increase, not decrease. If this trend plays out across the country, ObamaCare will increase US healthcare expense and place additional stress on ER service providers. Expect to see more privately owned, non-critical ER centers open up that do not accept Medicare patients, as people with good insurance will look to avoid the chaos of hospital ERs and seek out a higher level of service.

When asked about the cost reduction claims made in selling Obamacare to the public Vs the finding of the published Harvard study, Jonathan Gruber, health economist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and considered co-author of the Affordable Care Act along with Dr. Zeke Emanuel said, "That was sometimes a misleading motivator for the Affordable Care Act. The law isn't designed to save money. It's designed to improve health, and that's going to cost money."

And here is the other shoe waiting to drop. The government's own estimate, from June 17, 2010, on how many people on group health care plans will lose their plan when that mandate kicks in. This screen shot of the Federal Register shows the odds of you losing your group plan, as well as confirms that whole, "If you like your plan..." was known at the time to be a complete lie, and EVERYONE in the government knew it.

If I were a cynical person, I'd suspect that is why President Obama pushed the deadline for the employer mandate until after the 2014 midterm elections. 

Let Me Finish Interrupting!

Notice how liberals tend to say "let me finish" as they interrupt anyone with an opposing view?  And everyone else is to blame?   Keep in mind this guy is considered by many to be the architect of ObamaCare. It's Mitt Romney's plan when it doesn't work.

It's For Your Own Good. Trust Me.

To anyone paying attention, this is not a surprise.  The only surprise is that it took so long.


"Democrat delegate candidate Kathleen Murphy said that since many doctors are not accepting medicaid and medicare patients, she advocates making it a legal requirement for those people to be accepted."

Another Question With No Valid Answer

197 senior military officers have either been fired or relieved of duty by President Obama, including "...U.S. Africa Command head Gen. Carter Ham being shown the door by Obama for questioning orders against a rescue mission in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, when our ambassador and three other U.S. personnel were killed by Islamist terrorists.  Rear Adm. Chuck Gaouette, a carrier strike group commander, was also relieved for assisting forces ordered into action by Ham."

The White House has repeatedly stated that no 'stand-down' order was given.  Yet a General and an Admiral were relieved of duty for ignoring a 'stand-down' order and attempting to send help to Benghazi.

Medal of Honor recipient and retired Major General Patrick Brady, and the former Commanding General of the US Army Delta Force retired Army Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin are speaking out.  Investor's Business Daily has the story, click for the link.


Exit Question:  If a man is known by the enemies he creates, what does this say about President Barack Obama? 

Agenda?

One thing you can always count on from Liberals:  They always justify whatever they believe they must do in order to justify the results.

Benghazi Benghazi Benghazi

According to a report on 27 October, Obama ordered the immediate removal of Rear Admiral Charles M. Gaouette from his command of the powerful Carrier Strike Group Three (CSG-3) currently located in the Middle East.

US news reports on Obama’s unprecedented firing of a powerful US Navy Commander during wartime state that Admiral Gaouette’s removal was for   “allegations of inappropriate leadership judgment” that arose during the strike group’s deployment to the Middle East.

This GRU report, however, states that Admiral Gaouette’s firing by President Obama was due to this strike force commander disobeying orders when he ordered his forces on 11 September to “assist and provide intelligence for” American military forces ordered into action by US Army General Carter Ham, who was then the commander of the United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), against terrorist forces attacking the American Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.

General Ham had been in command of the initial 2011 US-NATO military intervention in Libya who, like Admiral Gaouette, was fired by Obama. And as we can, in part, read from US military insider accounts of this growing internal conflict between the White House and US Military leaders:

“The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.

General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.”

Paul Ryan Reminds America Why He Would of Made Great Vice President

Birthdays, Sheepdogs, Chris Cuomo, Truth, and Accountability

Today Navy SEAL Lt. Michael Murphy would have celebrated his 37 birthday.  Details of the remarkable  life of service of this American, and the sacrifice he made for his men  can be found here.  Celebrate this day through courage, integrity, and kindness.  The sheep owe the sheepdogs.  We have a responsibility to truth and accountability.

I've had a fun exchange on twitter with Chris Cuomo, CNN's new fair haired morning news boy (hey, he IS a good looking guy).  They are pinning their hopes that he will be able to bring in the viewers.  Chris comes from a family with an impressive history of public service. The viewing public grew tired of CNN morning host Soledad O'Brien.  Ms. O'Brien approached her show carrying quite a bit of water for her agenda.  I suspect that part of her downfall was she refused to accept or admit that she was indeed biased.  Very biased actually.  Ratings would suggest that viewers tend to be more forgiving of a host who acknowledges a bias and acts accordingly over one who claims to be an actual reporter who then spouts off talking points pulled off one of the web site of one of the political parties PAC.  Even to the end she insulted her viewers by signing off with the words, "...facts matter and we shouldn't be afraid to have tough and honest conversations...".  Of course if you ever watched her panel discussions or interviews, they were anything but 'tough and honest'.  Plus I doubt she spent much time fishing.  You'll have to refer to my twitter feed for that one.

'Fox and Friends' mixed some news, friendly banter from the hosts just to remind you that you are watching Fox, and the occasional human interest story that usually involves cheerleaders or girls in bikinis.

'Morning Joe' used to engage in some very serious and interesting discussions on politics and foreign policy.  Former Republican Joe Scarborough surrounded by moderate liberals were able to bring in interesting guests  and engage in conversation without interrupting and shouting at each other.  But since the election Mr. Scarborough seems to taken on a role of playing 'red-on-red' critic of the Republican party.  I understand his position of wanting to expand background checks, but while the world events continue to expose the gaps between the right and the left (Gosnell abortion trial, sending arms to Egypt) his show has turned into a single topic, bashing opponents of expanded background checks.  I'm sure that pleases his handlers at MSNBC, who are more than happy to ignore the growing Benghazi scandal of a possible lies and cover-up. Co-host Mika created a buzz when she refused to report any more Paris Hilton stores, and actually burned the printed copy rather than read it. But I suspect she would rather interview Ms. Hilton then bring on Darrell Issa to discuss why Hillary Clinton told the families of the Benghazi victims they were going to 'arrest and prosecute' the man responsible for the youtube video.

America lost four good men in Benghazi.  Two were public servants performing their jobs at the direction of the Secretary of State of the United States of America.  Two were killed while protecting our diplomatic station and the people stationed there.  The details of those events, and the heroism of our 'sheepdogs' has been reported elsewhere, mostly in the British press and on the internet, and those details are not the reason for this post.  However the actions of our government after the attack is.  As much as the Obama administration and the willing U.S. media has wanted to sweep the entire incident under the same rug as Fast and Furious, there have been a tenacious few that kept asking questions while the major networks went on 24/7 Amanda Knox news cycle.

So here's my wish for Chris Cuomo.  What if your father or brother had been tapped to lead the U.S. station in Benghazi?  What if those SEALs had died while trying to save him?

You wouldn't care about reporting the latest scandalous trail of some girl who may have killed her boyfriend, or whatever hot topic the low informed voter was following.  You would want to find the truth and report it.  You would want to shout it from the rooftop and make people care. Even if that truth was harmful to those in power or seeking power.  Regardless of party. Regardless if I found that truth to be painful. Just the truth.

So my request to Chris Cuomo is this:  Give us the truth. Hold people accountable.

My Response to Megan McCain

Who did Megan McCain support in the Republican primaries? Who did Megan McCain support in the 2012 election? Who do you think Megan McCain voted for in the 2012 election. Raise your hand if you believe Megan McCain voted for Barack Obama. Raise your hand if you asked, 'Who the hell is Megan McCain?' 

The daughter of Senator John McCain likes to tell the world she is a Republican. During her father's candidacy for President, she started blogging about life on the campaign bus and developed a small following. That lead to a writing gig with 'Daily Beast' and her efforts to trade on her last name and extend her 15 minutes of fame into a career

.

But Megan McCain has a problem. She believes that Republicans should be grateful that she is willing to call herself a Republican. And that out of that shear joy republicans should hand in their 'I'm a Conservative' cards and start sharing her liberal opinions.

 

 While Conservative pundits argued that the Republican party should shift to the right and embrace some the the Tea Party goals of fiscal responsibility with a little bit of Libertarian, Megan was tweeting photos with her new soul mate Sandra Fluke. It seems while drinking at the open bar they bonded over the knowledge that they are both hated just because they smart, outspoken women. Which of course isn't true. Megan McCain believes Christians should give up their opposition to abortion, and that Conservatives should embrace gay marriage at the expense of the religious rights of small businesses. She preaches that everyone else should adopt her views, although she refuses to recognize, or even understand, the rights and beliefs of those she criticizes. She accused others of being intolerant, between snarky comments directed at Conservatives who choose not to abandon their rights and beliefs as Christians, and as Americans. She jumps at every opportunity to appear and whine that the party of Michelle Malkin, Pam Geller, Jedediah Bila, Dana Loesch, Laura Ingrahm, Katie Pavlish, Dana Perino, Mary Kathrine Ham, S.E. Cupp, and of course Sarah Palin, just won't accept women with strong opinions.

Yesterday she tweeted:

"I don't understand what you gain by cannibalizing me out of the party? What do you gain? Seriously, why am I not good enough for my party?"

Let's start by having you admit it's not 'your' party. You are a young woman who has tried to make a career of going onto cable network opinion shows as a Republican criticising Republicans for being Republican, and now wonders why Republican don't like her.

Megan McCain, who went on every network to pitch her book and was more than happy to dance for the liberal media by calling Sarah Palin superficial and narcissistic, needs to take a hard look into a mirror of reality.

There is no "cannibalizing" going on. Just because you call yourself a Republican does not make you a party insider. You wanted to extend your 15 minutes by taking a bite out of the party whenever one of the networks called. But when the party bites back you cry foul. So no Megan, the party isn't big enough for both you and your ego.

President Obama Moves to Ban Golden Eagles

This video was posted on YouTube and is currently going viral. Some debate whether this video is legit, but I understand that Robert Reich is demanding the government act to protect 'people of small stature', and President Obama is convening a panel led by Joe Biden to review the issue and make a recommendation on how to best move forward with a ban on Golden Eagles.

Transparency, Obama Style

For a President who was about Hope and Change, and promised the most transparent administration ever, there are a lot of questions surrounding his Department of Justice and Obama's top cop Eric Holder.

Blind Media Pig Finds Acorn of Truth

Are there people in the media that will finall step up and say what many Americans believe?

Surely that can't be true!  For the past week our govenment has been saying that the violence and protests taking place against America is just the result of some silly movie trailer that got posted on YouTube back in July.  Right?   Islam is the Religion of Peace!  Right?

"The idea that this criminal and cowardly act was a spontaneous protest that just spun out of control is completely unfounded and preposterous" - Libyan President Mohammed el-Megarif


"An intelligence source on the ground in Libya told Fox News that there was no demonstration outside the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi prior to last week's attack -- challenging the Obama administration's claims that the assault grew out of a "spontaneous" protest against an anti-Islam film.

"There was no protest and the attacks were not spontaneous," the source said, adding the attack "was planned and had nothing to do with the movie."

The source said the assault came with no warning at about 9:35 p.m. local time, and included fire from more than two locations. The assault included RPG's and mortar fire, the source said, and consisted of two waves."  -  Jump to the complete story with video at FOX News  HERE
