The Epitome Of Tyranny
Using the power of government to force it’s own political views on it’s people is tyranny plain and simple, and the Obama regime has turned it into an art form. This is just another of a long list of injustices done to the American people by it’s own government. Disgusting.
The United States Patent and Trademark Office canceled six federal trademark registrations for the NFL’s Washington Redskins on Wednesday, saying the nickname is “disparaging to Native Americans” and cannot be trademarked under federal law that prohibits trademark protection on offensive or disparaging language.
This jihad against the Redskins is led by one of the most corrupt humans on earth, Harry Reid (D, Organized Crime). This is a man who entered politics penniless and is now super-rich. He made his money shaking down contributers and making land deals with organized crime figures. Dan Snyder may be an odious speck of a man, but he made his money honestly. He has a right to live in a land of laws and he has right to expect those laws will be respected by his government.
This is a national disgrace. Whatever your views on the name – and I think if you are upset by it you need psychiatric help – there is a proper, civilized way to go about it. Willy-nilly stealing the owner’s property is how banana republics function. What’s next? Will Reid send in thugs to break up Snyder’s house and threaten his family?
We have allowed our country to be taken over by criminals, deviants and lunatics. We should be ashamed at what we have done. keep reading
Clear As The Nose On Your Face
American freedom will not be secured by empty threats, meaningless red lines, leading from behind, appeasing our enemies, abandoning our allies, or apologizing for our great nation—all hallmarks to date of the Obama doctrine. Our security, and the security of our friends around the world, can only be guaranteed with a fundamental reversal of the policies of the past six years.
In 1983, President Ronald Reagan said, “If history teaches anything, it teaches that simple-minded appeasement or wishful thinking about our adversaries is folly. It means the betrayal of our past, the squandering of our freedom.” President Obama is on track to securing his legacy as the man who betrayed our past and squandered our freedom. keep reading

Wasting Time And Money In The Mid-East – Hind Sight Is 20/20 But Obama Still Can’t See It
Not surprising is the fact the Iraqi military has retreated in the face of an insurgency even with a 10 to 1 advantage.
This is what you see going on with the Iraqi army. None of them have loyalty to Iraq. Their first loyalty is to their family, followed by the extended family of the village and tribe. Sectarian loyalty is as far as it goes and even there it is frayed. Followers of one Imam may detest the followers of another, despite both being in the same sect. The Iraqi soldiers are not going to fight and die for something that does not exist, unless they have a bayonet in their back, as was the case under Saddam.
One would think the military would take advantage of the technology and training, but as witnessed in Afghanistan, the leaders have no interest other than lining their own pockets. Karzai and Maliki are cut from the same cloth, both corrupt politicians bilking the west out of billions…and we continue to pay.
The other interesting thing is all of this was predictable. The American military spent billions designing and training a military for Iraq along western lines. The trouble is they left an Arab culture that is still an Arab culture. Eventually you end up with the same old half-assed Arab army with a bunch of American gear they can barely operate. A guy named Norvell B. De Atkine wrote about this 15 years ago in a paper called Why Arabs Lose Wars. While he tried hard to inoculate himself, the author can’t help but notice the reason Arab countries are as we find them is they are full of Arabs. keep reading
IRS Emails Impossible To Be “Accidently” Destroyed
Seems fairly obvious to me that this thing just gets dirtier as things go along. Another damn hearing isn’t going to solve the problem. You must bring criminal charges against Lerner and put her in front of a jury, if she chooses to plead the fifth then the jury can decide her fate. These stupid hearings have done nothing, IRS, Benghazi, Fast & Furious, The VA and nothing….nothing has come from the hearings except a bunch of politicians feign fake outrage and after, assume their job is done. Ridiculous.
Not that there was any doubt, but a Department of Justice lawyer has anonymously contacted Powerline Blog to say why the IRS claim about losing emails because of a computer crash is “laughable”:
I’m a DOJ lawyer, so you obviously cannot use my name or any identifying information. But the idea that a “hard drive crash” somehow destroyed all of Ms. Lerner’s intra-government email correspondence during the period in question [2009-2011] is laughable. Government email servers are backed up every night. So if she actually had a hard drive fail, her emails would be recoverable from the backup. If the backup was somehow also compromised, then we are talking about a conspiracy.
Keep up the good work.
He reiterates in a postscript:
I’m serious about your keeping any identifying information out of the media. Things are very, very bad.
Elections Have Consequences
“That record has been extraordinarily lacking and ineffective,” Romney said Friday. “It is hard to think of a place in the world where our foreign policy interests were enhanced by virtue of her serving as secretary of State. And the eruption of challenges throughout the world just underscores the ineffectiveness of the foreign policy of the Obama administration, of which she was obviously a key part.”
Wasted Trillions, Wasted Lives, Wasted Wars, Wasted Six Years
What happens when you elect a community organizer with no experience in anything other than organizing against perceived injustices of the world? Nothing good.
In light of the unfolding disaster in Iraq, which is linked to the unfolding disaster in Syria, which is part of a broader failure in the Middle East, which is only one part of an across-the-board failure in foreign policy, which is separate from the failures at home–including healthcare.gov and ObamaCare more broadly, chronically high unemployment, the stimulus and “shovel ready jobs,” a historically weak economic recovery, the lowest workforce participation rate since the 1970s, increasing income inequality, and record poverty–the following needs to be said. Even those of us who were highly critical of Mr. Obama early on, who twice voted against him and worked in campaigns to defeat him, could not envision how epically incompetent he would be.
The harm this man has done is immeasurable. And he still has more than two years left to go.
Idiocy 101
The Obama Regime has zero idea what it’s doing.
The fall of Iraq and our equipment now in the hands of ISIS (Al Qaida).
The equipment is reportedly being taken to Syria to fight Assad’s forces.
I guess this generation now knows how it felt for Vietnam vets as they watched Saigon fall. History is repeating itself.
The Lies Of Benghazi
With all the scandals surrounding the Obama administration, one would think they create one to dismiss the other. When you tell a lie, you must continue to lie to cover the original sin.
