It’s no secret any longer

The Secret Service, a protective element of government law enforcement assigned the responsibility of assuring the President, and his family, as well as past presidents and their families, remains safe and unharmed has failed miserably. Now it’s being learned there appears to be a systemic breakdown; a breakdown not merely of the procedural elements used daily to protect, but more a breakdown of the underlying culture needing to be solid and unyielding in its strength and integrity.

The wheels on the bus

Clapper is no more than the slick spot where Obama showed his disloyalty to his minions and America once more

Rules of engagement

Rules of Engagement (ROE) are rules or directives to military forces (including individuals) that define the circumstances, conditions, degree, and manner in which force, or actions which might be construed as provocative, may be applied. They provide authorization for and/or limits on, among other things, the use of force and the employment of certain specific capabilities. In some nations, ROE have the status of guidance to military forces, while in other nations, ROE are lawful commands. Rules of Engagement do not normally dictate how a result is to be achieved but will indicate what measures may be unacceptable. Wikipedia (2014)

Adios, #

I’m stunned. I believed I was living under sanctions by my God and higher power. But now, I have hope for my forgiveness.

Shakespeare was a visionary

William Makepeace Thackeray said and to which I make an addition: The world is a looking glass and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face unless he defines beauty to his own benediction. (my emphasis and addition)

Stratification

Mondays suck. Over the weekend we see a dearth of reportable, recordable information occurring because legislators and civic leaders go to the house and start sipping on a cold one. The other problem to consider is this is the day when these nimrods return to work gumming up the process and trying like the dickens to maintain their cushy jobs doing no more than talking to each other, posturing before microphones and in general being of little to no good to the people paying their exorbitant salaries.

Boots on the ground

Scotland is still in the United Kingdom. That means Texas must admit the Free Texas Republic probably won’t be able to secede. Shucks! Additionally, it indicates the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations can breathe a little easier knowing the drive to declare them a parking lot for Massachusetts and Connecticut probably will go no further. (As “L’il Rhody” is my home state I feel no problem with stating the obvious.)

Grasping at Sawgrass

Obama speaking about “no boots on the ground”, turning the sacrifice of our heroes into a cliché is a matter formerly called: “Grasping at straws”

Recognizing the enemy

No matter how hard Obama tries to lie his way out of it and misdirect our attention from the fact; ISLAM is the foundational identity of this/these states,

International what?

John Kerry’s been babbling about some “international community” developing a united front against ISIL. Just what is this international community? Where is it? Who directs it? Who are the members?

No mea culpa

No Mea Culpa Bill Cassidy’s statement Harry Reid runs the Senate like a “plantation” is funny. Or, at least it would be funny if it weren’t true. Enter Harry Reid. He’s a man known for his violent rhetoric. He’s vicious in his criticism. He fosters distrust and acrimony among those of lesser status in the hierarchy

Vernacular

Monday is the day when we get to appreciate what the fools controlling Washington D.C. have said in the Lamestream Media. Obama said flat-out he never called ISIS/ISIL the “jayvee squad”. The media won’t do their job of reporting the news honestly, dispassionately and without agenda. We say: ROLL THE TAPE! But that would require the media remember where they placed their integrity, a daunting task in the best of times.

Bringing the Big Top Down

With the Democratic State Central Committee of Louisiana endorsing a convicted felon in the 6th Congressional District race, we see people running around as though their hair’s on fire and their butts are catching. With proclamations of the Democrats being corrupt and interested solely in the chance to get another seat in the House of Representatives marked with a big “D” we must ask: you’re just now noticing?

The Devil's in the details

The image of Obama, tired, tested, testy and rapidly gaining ground on understanding his self-inflicted lack of relevance was paraded before the NATO assembly today.

He never fails me

Each day I arise to the sun shining, the birds chirping and the clear and present danger Obama will screw something else up before lunch. He never fails me.

It’s MESSY!?

Okay, Obama. Let me see if I have this right. “The truth of the matter is, is that the world has always been messy. In part, we’re just noticing now because of social media and our capacity to see in intimate detail the hardships that people are going through. Those are your words.

It’s Extortion, Stupid

A lot of people are getting their bedclothes in a knot because of criticism concerning governmental 
“negotiations” with terrorists. America, under our fearless leader Beaurat Obama and his stooge John “I’m a war hero” Kerry, gave five high-ranking Al-Qaeda operatives to get a misguided/captured/deserted little fella described as seriously ill and in danger of getting worse if he was returned immediately to the loving care of his mommy and daddy.

Follow the money

It appears it’s a good year to be a lawyer in Washington. John Boehner says he’ll bring suit against Beaurat Obama (we’ll see if Boehner has the cojones to actually file the suit) and now presidential wannabe Bobby Jindal will apparently sue Obama and the feds because Common Core has a dead, rotting little worm resident at the heart of the program.

Psycho S.O.Bs

Beaurat Obama has NO spine for facing the threats the world is suffering because of and in the presence of ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) or ISIL (The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) the fundamentalist Islamist whacko unit. These are some Psycho S.O.Bs.

A liar’s a liar

A correspondent offered this observation after having read Bobby Jindal’s statement calling Barack Obama’s handling of the beheading of journalist James Foley: “Calling President Obama a "liar" in any form is unacceptable”.
