A Nod To The Gods

Update: Chris did a bang up job in his apology sermon, took full responsibility, the buck stops here crap. I don’t think he will be the worse for ware over this. Short of a smoking gun, Christie is still in the drivers seat for the 2016 GOP nod. Do I trust him? No. But time will tell what true colors the man has.

 

Romney chose not to pick Chris Christie as his running mate in the 2012 presidential run. One of the reasons for not selecting Christie was his penchant for petty vengeance and temperament. The vetting process alerted Romney to potential distractions that could derail any chance he may have at unseating Obama. After not being chosen for the VP candidacy, Christie showered affection on Obama during a visit to the Governors state for an assessment of the damage from Hurricane Sandy. So over the top was the embrace of Obama many people asserted that Christie did it to get back at Romney for the VP slight.

Now here we are 14 months later finding out that yes, Chris Christie is a bully. His decision to cause a huge traffic jam out of vengeance against another politician. This may have delayed emergency vehicles that potentially led to the death of a woman who was waiting for that service. For Christie to not look at the big picture of this decision should pretty much scare the hell out of voters. This is going to mess up the 2016 presidential elections.

I liked Christie. I liked almost everything about him. I also thought he was a shoe in as Romney s running mate. Now I can see why Romney hedged.

Reap the whirlwind Chris, karma is a vengeful bitch.

Global warming alarmists and their allies in the liberal media have been caught doctoring the results of a widely cited paper asserting there is a 97-percent scientific consensus regarding human-caused global warming. After taking a closer look at the paper, investigative journalists report the authors’ claims of a 97-pecent consensus relied on the authors misclassifying the papers of some of the world’s most prominent global warming skeptics. At the same time, the authors deliberately presented a meaningless survey question so they could twist the responses to fit their own preconceived global warming alarmism.

Global warming alarmist John Cook, founder of the misleadingly named blog site Skeptical Science, published a paper with several other global warming alarmists claiming they reviewed nearly 12,000 abstracts of studies published in the peer-reviewed climate literature. Cook reported that he and his colleagues found that 97 percent of the papers that expressed a position on human-caused global warming “endorsed the consensus position that humans are causing global warming.”

This story came out a few days ago and I feel bad I did not mention it. Principles before profits should be applauded loudly across the land.
If you want to give them a pat on the back go here.

Mike Davis, sales manager at Desert Tech, said the company was on a short list for a contract with Pakistan, but spurned the opportunity because of unrest in Pakistan and ethical concerns. It was a difficult decision because of the amount of money involved, he said, and the sale of rifles to Pakistan would have been legal.

“We don’t know that those guns would’ve went somewhere bad, but with the unrest we just ended up not feeling right about it,” Davis told KTVX-TV.

The company, based in the Salt Lake City suburb of West Valley City, was founded in 2007 on the principle of keeping America and its allies safe, he added.

“As a business owner you always want to be successful, but I think ethically and morally you want to go about it the right way and stick behind your founding principles,” Davis told KSL.

Lets try it again, maybe this time it will take.

On January 7, 1999, the impeachment trial of President William Clinton began in the Senate. This is the oath that Senators took before participating in the trial. The President was acquitted by the Senate on February 12.

Mooch stays in Hawaii at big “O’s” place, Obammer went back to Washington, does anyone know if the Danish Prime Minister is in D.C.?

I have seen both of these before but in a separate context, together seems to make the point much better.
ps: Some comments I read said the Ben Franklin quote is paraphrased, but you should get the meaning.

And the muslim in chief OK’s all this crap. Good lord if this women gets elected to the Presidency I will officially go off the grid, I am tired giving people tax money to squander on things I am dead set against. An Obama sent them the plane because these VIP’s were on the “No Fly List” due to their terrorist activities.

 

It seems like everything Obama finds a solution for turns to shit. After all the blood and treasure spent to “help” Iraq, Obama ended the war and the country has fallen into turmoil, much as expected by most military officials. But Obama needed a political victory so he chose to pull the US out completely and claim victory over Al Qaeda…yeah not so much.

Don’t get me wrong I hated the Iraq war, but if you have committed to the fight, finish the job. As far as I am concerned, Obama spit in the face of all the people who were effected by the war. Hope Obama enjoyed his 17 day vacation in Hawaii.
