From Kristin Tate\’s article at breitbart.com: The AssociatedPress (AP) obtainedan email from Eligio “Lee” Pena, an assistant patrolagent, that ordered more than 3,000 agents to not speak to reportersabout the “humanitarian crisis.” The email allegedly saidthat reporters are likely to press for details and “may try todisguise themselves”...
What do you get when you try to remove a transcendentally litigious NBA owner from the league because he did something that many other people in the NBA have also done, usually with no punishment at all? Or, put another way, what is Los Angeles Clippers owner donald sterling doing, now that he – at least as of this moment, with all things in this ridiculous saga always subject to change at...
Apropos of nothing political…and only because I referenced “On The Waterfront” in the previous blog…. As you certainly know if you have ever seen this great Elia Kazan classic movie, the priest was played by Karl Malden – the fine academy award winning actor (not for this movie, though – the one he won for is at the bottom of the blog) who most people remember...
The dishonesty of the IRS scandal has reached the point where it is hard to tell whether we are watching our government in action or a bad remake of “On The Waterfront”. First we have all sorts of suppression and punishment for groups that are guilty of agendas which do not coincide with President Barack Obama\’s Then we have the lies upon lies, starting with the claim that...
When Mickey Rooney died, I wrote an obituary which pointed out that, after Mr. Rooney, just a few people were left who had acted in silent movies. One of those few is now gone. Carla Laemmle, aged 104, whose uncle, Carl Laemmle, founded Universal Studios and who was in both the silent version of Phantom of the Opera (1925) and the talking version of Dracula (1931) – in...
This story is told in two excerpts. The first is from Leo Rennert\’s June 3 article at americanthinker.com: Palestinianterrorism got a boost from President Obamas decision to continueto work with — and finance — a “unity” governmentthat includes Hamas, a certified terrorist group dedicated toIsrael\’s extermination. Withone swoop, Obama undercut...
From Conan O\’Brien, during last night\’s monologue: “GeorgeHW Bush turned 90 and celebrated by skydiving. So, if you includeObama there were two presidents in free fall today.” No explanation necessary. Enjoy Quote Of The Day honors, Conan. They are well earned.
Nothing to write here. Just a Gallup poll question, showing results over the past 6 years. Any questions?
So many lies come out of this administration about so many things it is almost impossible to keep track Here\’s another one: that the five terrorist murderers released back to the Islamic world in exchange for lying deserter bowe bergdahl pose no threat to us. From Thomas Joscelyn\’s article at dailycaller.com: Oneof the five senior Taliban leaders transferred to Qatar in...
Last year, when my wife and I, along with another couple were in Prague, we took a day trip to the Theresienstadt concentration camp, more commonly known as Terezin. In that camp, tens of thousands of Jews died – not by extermination in gas chambers, but by being worked virtually non-stop, with little food and water, until they died. No problem with the loss...
It is just before noon, and we are waiting for President Obama\’s statement regarding Iraq. I am hoping for the sake of simple decency that as President for the past 5 1/2 years – the last three of them after he “negotiated” a complete troop withdrawal instead of leaving a residual force – he does not attempt to blame this on George Bush. Not that, in any way, I...
In 2011, when Barack Obama oversaw the withdrawal of our troops from Iraq, he took full, 100% credit for doing so…and gave exactly no credit whatsoever to President Bush – the man who negotiated that troop withdrawal and formally agreed to it in November, 2008. (To this day, I am certain, most people have no idea that the withdrawal agreement was President Bush\’s doing...
Since mainstream media are either too dense or too partisan (maybe both) to ask, I will. Given that there is a huge flood of illegal alien minors coming across the Mexican border from Guatemala and Honduras….. ….and given that, they are coming through Mexico to get here….. ….what is the Mexican government doing about this? Why is Mexico, which has a...
I just put on the TV for about two minutes, and caught Dana Milbank on al Sharpton\’s “PoliticsNation show” at (where else?) MSNBC. He just referred to Eric Cantor – not David Brat (who, by the way, did not get almost any support from the various tea party groups) but Eric Cantor – as “A tea party guy”. I spontaneously laughed out loud…and then held...
Today\’s quote comes to us from Chris Matthews, the once, and (suddenly there is a slight possibility here) future worthwhile political analyst who, in recent years has morphed into an ultra-left drone on (where else?) MSNBC. Last week, Matthews surprised me (and I would suspect a great many others) by emphatically speaking out against the term “swift-boating” being used...
