1 The election showed that Obama was a Leftist and empty-headed.  The Left thought they could get around his lack of skills, smarts and experience.  They were wrong.  Buyers remorse.  It is good to see.

How exactly does one "escalate a stalemate"?

3 1st and 2nd!

4 The left is just having a lover's spat with O.

They would follow him to "Blank".....That kind of love will not be dampened.

5 Hayden is a cry-baby sissy.

6 Drat!  I was going to go for the hat trick.

7 Even Jane Fonda thinks he's nuts.

8 Back in the day, I worked in an inpatient adolescent psychiatric ward as a staff worker for about a year.  The running joke around the unit was that the main  difference between a mentally disturbed teenager and a healthy one was that one was fictional.  

You could make the same joke substituting "member of the hard left" for "teenager".

9 His flip-flopping acceptance of the military coup in Honduras has squandered the trust of Latin America.

What a lying cocksucker ex-Mr Hanoi Jane is.

10 CTR: How exactly does one "escalate a stalemate"?

There!  You see?  That's why you're not a Leftist.  You just don't have their innate SuperSmarts^TM. 

Lowly prole.  You were born to be led.

11 Hayden issues the Port Moron Statement.

12 You really have to be insane to think Obama is not "left" enough.

13 Leave it on your car. Pretty soon, you're gonna need it if you want to see a doctor.

I wasn't aware that Tom Hatin' was still alive or really cared for that matter.

15 Please keep going left, please, please. It will make winning in 2010 that much sweeter. That said, I have noticed less and less O stickers around LA. And we all know how blue it is here. I used to see them all the time on the freeway and now I only see a couple here and there, if any.

16 Purple Avenger, you sir are a Gentleman for sparing the rest of us from having to go to these sites.  Happy New Year!

17 Good night.  Will these LSD-baked '60's perpetual adolescent commies EVER give it a rest?  Who the hell cares what this leftie gas bag thinks?   If President Messiah is too conservative for you, you might as well move to Cuba

18 Tom will take the Obama sticker off his LIMOS, Yacht and Jet. Asshole thinks we'd believe he drives his own Prius? Pffft.

19 Hey, Jane Fonda was pretty hot back in her Barbarella days, even with the stupid shag haircut.  Just sayin.....

20 Tom Hayden: "It's time to strip" because his writing isn't going to put him through college.

21

I believe what he meant to say was he is going to send his man-servant out to scrape the sticker off his car.

22 PA: See, I'll wade into these fetid festering fever swamps of the hard left so you gentle readers don't have to.

Now the poor fellow must wander around Moronville shouting, "Unclean! Unclean!"  Women and children will shun him, well...more than is usual, anyway.

23 That site's comments don't publish--too bad.

24 Hayden is such a commie, Che Guevara wears a Tom Hayden T-shirt.

25 And thanx P/A for doing the stuff the DEMSM won't do. Nor myself for that matter. I'd rather have the worlds worst hangover, the bends and piss fire, than go there and check this crap out!

26

There! You see? That's why you're not a Leftist. You just don't have their innate SuperSmartsTM. Lowly prole. You were born to be led.

Alas woe is I, for I cannot understand the genius of the Left! Clearly we are all doomed because we cannot possibly compete with beings of such genius that they can figure out how to make something even more stalemated than it was before!

27 So what.  He'll still pull the lever for him in 2012, and so will all those f'ed up former hippies.  

Too bad that generation is gonna suck Social Security dry before they finally do the decent thing and stop emitting carbon dioxide.

28 I wasn't aware that Tom Hatin' was still alive or really cared for that matter.

Dude has staying power like Keith Richards...chemically enhanced timelessness.

OT

Friend of mine had exercise induced chest and arm pain. All the tests they did at first were negative. He had a quadruple bypass. I don't know the details but negative tests does not get one out of the woods.

35 Too many Jews on that list. We get all the Nobel prizes but are so fucking stupid about politics it is unbelievable.

36 It's time to strip the Obama sticker off my car. Obama's escalation in Afghanistan is the last in a string of disappointments. His flip-flopping acceptance of the military coup in Honduras has squandered the trust of Latin America. His Wall Street bailout leaves the poor, the unemployed, minorities and college students on their own. And now comes the Afghanistan-Pakistan decision to escalate the stalemate, which risks his domestic agenda, his Democratic base, and possibly even his presidency...

He does a good ob defining their base.

37 kansas: All the tests they did at first were negative. He had a quadruple bypass.

Do you mean his tests were negative before or after the bypass?  Because they would not do a bypass, much less a quadruple, if his angiogram was negative.  If the tests were "negative" after the bypass, I think you mean that his bypass vessels are still patent, since the old clogged arteries are still there.

38 Tom Hayden is an epic douchenozzle.  How else would you explain your wife leaving you for (laughing so hard here) Ted Turner?

39 I forgot to add that it is painfully obvious now that Hayden must be some sort of racist hater and closeted member of StormFront or Aryan Nation.

Don't forget, he's probably a Creationist as well.

As for the bumper stickers.... quite a few of the libtards at my job still have them on their vehicles. What idiots.

Fewer and fewer bumper stickers in SoCal, too.

41

Obama's going grey because unlike every other job he's ever had, he has to show up every day on time to be the President.  Princess Barry is more used to 3 day workweeks and rolling out of bed at the crack of noon.

It's like he's just figured out how to be an adult.

Rumor has it, Ted liked to get the business with a strap-on and she said in a book her first hubby Roger Vadim was into swinging. Maybe Haden wasn't freaky enough for her.

43

Grrrr.

There was no coup in Honduras.

But I'm sure Tom Hayden would be the first one to stand in front of the tanks if the Supreme Court ordered the US Army to remove Bush if Bush decided to become President-For-Life.

44 #40, one of the neighbors a few doors down still has a BHO placard in the window.  A few days ago, I almost asked her how she could, then I remembered the serenity prayer... prayer about things you can CHANGE and those you cannot.

45
A tired old hippy gasbag with an eternal "look at me" syndrome.  Even a loser like Jane Fonda rejected him.  I love these pronouncements from people who are stuck in the past and a lot of people have nominated for the latest death pool.

46 All the Obama stickers in my 'hood have been replaced with shotgun blast holes in the plastic bumper covers. 

47 I don't know about a death pool entry for Hayden, but I'm betting he just put himself on the short list for an IRS audit ;->

48 I still see quite a few Toonces/Sherrif Joe bumber stickers around. And the cars they're on inevitably are piloted by the worst f'n clueless drivers on the road.

49 Fewer and fewer bumper stickers in SoCal, too.

Heh, maybe where you are, but not only do I still see a lot of those, but a surprising number Kerry/Edwards stickers, too.  How weapons-grade stupid do you have to be to drive around with a loser like Edwards' name emblazoned on your vehicle?

50 As for the bumper stickers.... quite a few of the libtards at my job still have them on their vehicles. What idiots.

The Pakistani doctor that lives across the street still has one on his SUV. Nice guy, but since he works at Cook County Hospital and his wife (another doctor) works at Hines VA
Hospital government takeover of health care probably has no downside for him.

51

Rush didn't have a negative stress perfusion (nuclear) test.  He had a coronary angiogram.

Stress nuclears miss 10-15% of blocked coronaries based on perfusion images alone.  Coronary angiograms ("heart cath") miss <1-2%.

If he had the angiogram, he's probably fine.

52 When you've lost Tom Hayden, you've lost all of Santa Monica.

53 Rumor has it, Ted liked to get the business with a strap-on[.]

Saw an interview with Ted in which he said that his father used to beat him black and blue and then say, "Now you do me" and hand Ted the belt. Ted would whale away until his daddy was all black and blue, too, and then the two of them would cry together. This was Ted's daddy's way of teaching his son about the wages of sin and the redemption of punishment.

The mutual beatings continued until Ted was in his twenties, by the way.

54 What was Hayden promised? Acid Czar?

55 Bam! Bam! Bam! Another nail in Ob+mao's re-election prospects.

56 53  Jane, you ignorant slut . . .

57

oops - completely wrong post.   And I have not been drinking- this time.  Sorry! (sheepish look)

58 Is he saying that college students are poor? Most of the ones I see at the schools around here drive newer and more expensive cars than I do. Cripes the kid across the street got a BMW M3  a couple of years ago, and I had to teach him how to drive a manual transmission, and this kid doesn't even mow their lawn.

59 Be sure to ask the lefty barrista at Starbuck's to add some disappointed-in-Obama liberal tears to your next mocha. Delicious!

Then make sure to stiff 'em at the tip jar.

60 Joan Walsh and I finally agree that Tom Hayden is a traitor

Good times, good times

61 Hayden, another spoiled, fucked up hippie who believes that money just 'magically' appears. 

62

I have less compassion for leftists who finally get it (or even part of it) than I do for Ace's hangover.

"Gee, that's Ok that you played a part in ruining the country. As long as you get it now. No foul, no harm."

Or maybe I'm not as forgiving as I'd like to be. Nah - that would make me a masochist.

I wish everyone who voted for Obama would get a tattoo plastered on his forehead that said STUPID STUPID STUPID. How else do you explain not seeing the blindingly obvious TRUTH behind our used-car salesman president? It's always been so THERE.

 

 

63

Tom Hayden may as well get it over with, put on a sheet and just go burn a cross on the Presidents lawn as far as I'm concerned.

64 I thought the Cash For Clunkers Program eliminated all the Obama stickers already!

65 Thanks, purple avenger for doing the wading. I can't do it anymore. I spent a week at HuffPo because I thought it might be better to engage the enemy. Talk about the definition of 40% (The amount of the vote Carter got in 1980 with all that was going on then - proving some people never learn).
And what a bitter, miserable place. Coulter was right - Palin keeps that site in business. At any one time you could find a half dozen articles on her. Want to have fun? Go to HuffPo and pick ANY topic, go to the comments, mention Palin's remarkable book sales and watch the entire board descend into raging anti-Palin fury. Like something out of the Exorcist. Usually you don't even have to do it, they do it themselves. That's no lie.
I finally gave up completely at HuffPo because there was no rational argument. No matter what you said, it was BUSH SUCKS! PALIN SUCKS! CHENEY IS EVIL! And that was about it. So once again, thank you for doing the dirty work.

66 BTW, Tom Hayden just called my house, he's taking donations for the local White Supremecist group in his area.

67 I noted recently a number of articles on the God gene - meaning we are biologically disposed to a faith system.  As we know there are genetic aberrations; one is the lefty gene which disposes some to socialism and hanging out with the North Vietnamese among other things..  I've never been disposed to eugenics, but one could make a good argument to cleanse our gene pool.

68 The only thing missing from this post is a noose.

That's why they did a angiogram.
Doctors are able to examine the condition of the coronary arteries without being invasive.

70 @62 you are exactly right, to say you didn't see this coming is to say you really don't deserve the right to vote because you're a little on the dumb.

71 His Wall Street bailout leaves the poor, the unemployed, minorities and college students on their own.

You know, all the undesirable types. 

Jeff Goldstein had a nice piece awhile ago about Ted Rall, but it fits here.  All Hayden is really saying is "pay attention to me!".  After all, when was the last time someone thought to ask "I wonder what Tom Hayden thinks about this?"

72 "the military coup in Honduras" The coup ordered by the Honduran supreme court, and backed by everyone else in the legislator... upset Mr Hayden that a would be President-For-Life didn't get Obama's full backing? Though as I recall it our President was tepid about the whole deal in the wrong way.

73 just kidding, i am not in favor of eugenics, as I am not in favor of the socialists in our country who try to undermine the greatest country in the history of mankind.  These morons just tick me off and I got carried away.

74
Sounds to me like he said "It's time to scrape that boy's sticker off my car."

I,  for one,  am saddened.

75

It's time to strip the Obama leeches off our ass.

76

Well, at least Tommy's consistent. The Port Huron Statement he penned back in the early days of SDS reads like a position paper on foreign policy as written by a five year old. Laughably naive.

It takes real effort to remain hopelessly ignorant about reality for an entire lifetime. I hear a lobotomy helps. I wonder if Tommy still gets his electroshock treatments as well?

77

11 Hayden issues the Port Moron Statement.

Excellent!!

 

(but maybe sailed over the heads of many)

78 Tom, you know what Obama says:

Just take the pain medication.

79

There's an ObamaBiden Bumper Sticker Tatooed on my ass!

Funny story.  Ol' Smokin' Joe and I were out drinking with my dear friend Ted Kennedy.  You think I give a good drunken oration?  You should have seen the old lion of the pub talk the panties off a bar wench! 

Where was I?  

80 He's not fit to suck Jane Fonda's dick.

81 I'm calling bullshit.  Hayden doesn't want Obama to be a one-termer, he's just pretending to attack the guy from the left to give cover to the politicos who describe Obama as a centrist.  Can't pass yourself off as a "centrist" if all your attacks come from the same side of the aisle.

82 this a whole other subject but my right wing soul is feeling conflicted

I just saw "Avatar" in 3-D (pretty cool stuff 3-D is) last night w/ my gf, my bro, and my bro's wife. My bro was offended by the movie calling it liberal spin, but I actually kind of enjoyed it though I wouldn't say it's the best thing since slice bread the way Hollywood is reacting to it, but anyhow am I wrong to enjoy the film? I thought it was pretty good and anti mercenary not anti military and actually pretty pro religion too. Frankly it looked more like Dances With Wolves in the future then the incredible classic people claim it is but I still enjoyed it and give it a good "B-"

But I just read a review slamming it as a leftists movie yet I enjoyed the film but my brother was offended by it. what you guys think?

83

I wonder if Nancy Pelosi will be close to tears when she hears this strident language from Hayden. 

84

Posted by: YRM at January 01, 2010 07:52 PM (xNw7B)

oh wait the reviewer i'm referring too just slammed "The Hurt Locker" and "Star Trek", so maybe this guy doesn't know his stuff after all right wing guy or not

85 Obama has aged because he is so out of his league, so out of his depth.  He can't reconcile his preconceived notions with reality as it is relayed to him.

It is really, really hard to have to lie all the time.  Nerve racking that is.

86 And here I thought Afghanistan was the war which must be won.

87

I wonder if Tom Hayden fly's a Confederate Battle Flag and takes his scent Hounds with him when he's fires up his pick-up truck and goes off on a lynching ?

88 YRM, my sister is no fool and she saw it for professional reasons and she said the dialogue was trite, every beat and plot development were totally predictable, the character development was nonexistent, there were some totally illogical developments, and it was stupid in the same way Titanic was. So I'm guessing you're dazzled by looks and there was no liberal message or intent you perceived or reacted to.

89 My son, a senior in high school, said that it embarasses him when I make "political" comments in front of his friends. Because I don't regularly do this and because I know all of his friends parents, who are also at least nominally not libs, I know I'm not out of bounds. I did remind them on their way to Avatar that it was an anti-US pro-communism movie. When he said that I was too slanted in my thinking, I asked him if he wanted to be on the side of those that hated or respected the military. He admires our military greatly, so I knew the answer to the question. I said that the left hates the military--the only people who stand between us and darkness, evil, and oppression. He could think about that and decide. Since he is also vehemently pro-life I'm not worried but asked him to remember who the media really was and who they like and what that says about them. The idea that they are pissed with Obama for not being enough of a pansy is indicative.

well it def. is dazzling to watch but i'll agree the film wasn't as great as people say it is. and it was basically a re-thread of Dances with Wolves, your right though I found no liberal message, maybe some hookie peace stuff that was said and making the ex marine guys (now mercenaries which are never good), look a little sterotypical.

Posted by: dagny at January 01, 2010 07:59 PM (pWl3F)

i saw no anti-military message, just stereotyping, and it was more anti-mercenary so if Cameron did mean to do a liberal message I don't think he did too good a job of it

91 The boys thought the entire film was f-ed up because it was anti-human. When the theater was applauding the win of the blue aliens, one of them yelled, "You're human stupid." One said it was the biggest waste of money he had ever made.

92 By the way, Purple Avenger, I wander into lefty territory quite frequently in search of nuggets for one of my blogs, and I've got quite the little list of grumbling lefties:

Cornel West
Maureen Dowd
Clive Crook
Garry Wills
Various environmental groups
Bob Herbert
Michael Goodwin (not real lefty, but voted for Obama)
Matt Taibbi
Code Pink
Maxine Waters
Joan Walsh (even though she ran back yesterday and threw herself at his feet)
Roger Cohen
Chris Matthews
Keith Olbermann
Eugene Robinson
Clarence Page
Joe Klein
Various regular contributors to HuffPo and The Daily Beast
Half the cast of Firedoglake
Half the cast of Daily Kos

Not all of them are taking the "Kick Me" stickers off their cars, but there's plenty of disillusionment.

93 Young Barack has turned into such a reactionary

I wasn't effected by them being humans, I saw it more as them being mercenaries needlessly killing a group that tried to talk things over, if anything the aliens tried being diplomats and to say that they were defeating "the humans" is to equate the entire mercenaries and corporate group to Earth, they weren't there representing Earth, they were there to take expensive rock that happen to be in an alien planet, frankly that group would have been equated to Saddam w/ Kuwait in the Gulf War if anything

96 yrm: good for you. just because it has what used to be called a "liberal slant" doesn't mean a hill o' beans in this world. it is meant to be enjoyed (& be successful) with some rather common-place aspirations to niceness vs meanness. look at the movies from the 30's, some of them wonderful, engrossing, silly idealizations with social/political overtones. their negligible implicit commentaries look quaint now. so will cameron's in this flick. what was despicable, in my view, was the conscious & determined effort by hollywood to propagandize the stupid masses in support of clinton in the 90's. "Dave", "Independence Day", "the American President", etc. will be in the scrapbin for their vain & transparent advocacy.

98 Speaking of douchebags, Brett Bair's entire show tonight was a panel discussion on events of '09 and ended with predictions for '10.  Brett's predictions was one I had partially  heard before -- that Rahmbo was going to resign and run for the senate.  The one I hadn't heard was that Tom "Puff" Daschle was going to be the new chief of staff.  Ugh.

103 #99, I disagree.  If Obama loses in 2012, he will fade into obscurity.

104 I find it strange that Marxists are disappointed with Obama for not destroying the country fast enough for their liking.

He has worked extremely hard to destroy the market for medical care.  He has worked hard to hinder our economy through Watermelon Marxist (green on the outside, red on the inside) "cap and trade" proposals.  He has worked to neuter our future air supremacy by scrapping the F-22 program.  He has worked to embolden our enemies through appeasement.  His "justice department" has worked to destroy the morale of our troops by prosecuting them for doing their jobs. 

I would think that the average leftist would be very appreciative of his efforts to destroy America. 

What were they expecting, an October Revolution in January?

there's no doubt Hollywood puts slants in their movies but if there is slant in "Avatar" it's barely noticeable and badly done, don't forget the film was first thought of when Clinton was President. and I agree on the propaganda of the 90's films w/ Bill Clinton trying to beef up his image but it didn't work, his favorables still sucked

When Obama was sworn in, the far left expected this all to be done by sundown Jan 20, 2009;

Full withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan, redeployment of some on a mercy mission to Darfur

Takeover of the banks, oil companies, insurance companies, and pretty much any company other than entertainment companies

Free universal health care

Shutting down of talk radio

Confiscation of guns (except for celebrities' guns)

Rationing of gas to get everyone on mass transit, and other punitive measures to "save the planet"

And on the Seventh Hour, He would rest

132 The Fed has some big players who have to know what Soreass is up to since he's done it before to other countries. I can't see these guys letting one magalomaniac totally destroy the currency they're invested in, but it sure appears to be happening. That's what I'm afraid of. I think Soros is rubbing his hands gleefully because his Sith apprentice is destroying the economy at a pretty good clip. And the media is complicit in the lie. When it comes down to it, Soros is pulling the strings. I don't know how this factors Ayers in, but I'm sure he's also a puppet of Soros. I heard from someone who's got ears in interesting places that Soros was given a directive by Stalin to destroy the US economically. His fortune was given to him by Stalin and he just amassed more of it to carry out the mission. (Yes, I'm wearing a tinfoil hat.)

143 The best thing is that the ongoing, and very public war in Afghanistan is going to be hell for the core leftist base to swallow and defend. It means that even his diehard 25 or so % could quite possibly jump ship if Obama gradually becomes the nation's punching bag.

OBAMA HAD SPECIFIC NOTICE OF A THREAT OF A CHRISTMAS TERRORIST ATTACK ON DECEMBER 22, 2009 AND HE DID NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Questions:

1. why wasnt the terror alert level raised, more security implemented after the december 22 report of a possible holiday attack?
2. why did obama continue to focus 100% on health care garbage instead of national security after he received this report? remember the multiple obama speechs on health care on dec 23 and 24???
3. wtf was janet incompetano doing from dec 22 until Christmas?  How about Dennis Blair? Panetta? 
4. why is obama still in hawaii instead of back in DC doing his job?
5. what specific measures, if any, were implemented to protect against the specific threats outlined in the december 22 report regarding holiday terrorist threats?

This is why Obama said it was a "systemic failure" and a "catastrophic failure"

notice how this drops on new years day friday late.....max burying time...

EXCLUSIVE: Obama Got Pre-Christmas Intelligence Briefing About Terror Threats to "Homeland" Mark Hosenball

President Barack Obama received a high-level briefing only three days before Christmas about possible holiday-period terrorist threats against the US, Newsweek has learned. The briefing was centered on a written report, produced by US intelligence agencies, entitled "Key Homeland Threats", a senior US official said.

The senior Administration official, who asked for anonymity when discussing sensitive information, said that nowhere in this document was there any mention of Yemen, whose Al-Qaeda affiliate is now believed to have been behind the unsuccessful Christmas Day attempt by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab to bring down a transatlantic airliner with a bomb hidden in his underpants. However, the official declined to disclose any other information about the substance of the briefing, including what kind of specific warnings, if any, the President was given about possibly holiday attacks and whether Yemen came up during oral discussions.

According to the senior official, the holiday threat briefing, one in a series of regularly-scheduled sessions with top counter-terrorism officials, was held in the White House Situation Room on December 22. Present were representatives of agencies involved in counter-terrorism policy and operations, including Attorney General Eric Holder, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and FBI Director Robert Mueller. The CIA and National Intelligence Directors Office were represented by deputy agency heads: CIA deputy director Steven Kappes, and David Gompert, the principal deputy to National Intelligence Czar Dennis Blair. Also present was Michael Leiter, director of the National Counter-terrorism Center, a unit of the Intelligence Czar's office which was created after 9/11 to ensure that intelligence reporting about possible terrorist plots was shared quickly among all US agencies who might have some capability to do something about it.

The senior official said that beginning in early December, based on reports coming in from intelligence agencies, policy-makers had begun tracking a stream of information which alluded to a possible holiday-period plot against the US orchestrated from somewhere in Pakistan. However, the official said, this reporting later turned out to be "garbled" and it was determined that the threat probably was a washout. The official denied that the White House received any report, representing the concensus of US intelligence agencies, warning that a Holiday-period plot originating in Yemen and targeting the US homeland could be in the works.

In a background briefing for reporters on December 29, also attributed in an official White House transcript to a "senior administration official", that official asserted that in the wake of the attempted underpants attack, it had become clear to the President and top advisors that before Christmas, the US government was in posession of "bits and pieces" of information, which, if they had been properly knitted together, "could have...allowed us to disrupt the attack or certainly to know much more about the alleged attacker in such a way as to ensure that he was on, as the President suggested in his statement, a no-fly list." In the briefing, the official identified three rough categories of information that the government had which could have been relevant to foiling the attack: information about Abdulmutallab and his plans, info about Al-Qaeda and their plans, and info "about potential attacks during the holiday period."

Asked about what kind of intelligence reporting was circulated to senior officials about possibly holiday period attacks before the failed underpants attack, a US intelligence official, who also asked for anonymity, explained: "As everybody knows, terrorists often speak in coded language, especially when they think their communications might be intercepted.  There was no clear discussion of an attack, on Christmas or any other time, in the Middle East or anywhere else.  But as veiled as the message was, it was spotted, processed, analyzed, and presented to senior policymakers as a warning sign-however vague-of a holiday attack.  While this was handled properly, there were, to put it mildly, virtually no details at all.  That happens."    When Newsweek asked a senior Administration official about this characterization of a warning which was passed to White House policymakers,  and whether it tracked what was presented at the December 22 Presidential briefing, the official would not comment.

Presidential aides are concerned that Obama will somehow be unfairly accused of dropping the ball on the fight against terrorist in Yemen -- a country where, in fact, the evidence suggests Obama, as early as last summer, ordered a significant increase in US intelligence activity. In the weeks before the Christmas attacks, several US officials have told Newsweek, Obama authorized a major expansion in US intelligence, military and material support to Yemen's government -- an escalation which some officials acknowledge could be characterized as a new covert war. But Obama's public and private actions in expanding counter-terrorism operations in Yemen may not help him avoid answering further questions about what intelligence agencies told him -- and didn't tell him -- about possible threats to the US homeland in the days and weeks before the alleged underpants bomber boarded his Christmas Day flight from Amsterdam to Detroit.

 

161 Anybody up for an insane conspiracy theory?

Obama clearly hates having to do the Predator drone strikes against the Taliban and al Qaeda in Pakistan, because his loony base says they're "murder," and they make Obama look like he isn't extending his open hand to Muslims.

Well, in November of 2009, Code Pink co-founder and Obama fundraiser Jodie Evans met with the Taliban in Afghanistan and then passed "information" about her trip to President Obama.

http://tinyurl.com/ylhlet5

A month later the Taliban pulls off an amazingly successful and effective attack on the very CIA agents in charge of the drone strikes.

Coincidence?  Since the CIA are vicious, torturing murderers hated by the political left, and since the Taliban just want what we want, and since all conflict is the result of misunderstandings, what better way to bring about peace than to eliminate the people carrying out these terrible drone strikes? Wouldn't it be for the greater good if they were gone? A tough choice, but that's what presidents have to do, right? Make tough choices.

No more drone strikes means the loony base is happy, the Taliban is happy, and now our president has a chance to negotiate peace in our time.

162 IIRC, Hayden's son worked on the Obama campaign. I think I remember Hayden writing about that on HuffPo.

I noticed last year that Hayden and Fonda kept fairly low profiles during the election. I think that may be because Hanoi Hilton POWs were beaten for refusing to meet with Hanoi Jane, and Jane called the POWs liars. I could be wrong about their reason for keepong a low profile though--commies are not known for their good taste and restraint.

163 MAYBE THESE MSM LEFTIST HACKS WILL ASK GIBBSY ONCE THEY CATCH UP ON THE LEAK TO NEWSWEEK ABOUT OBAMA'S DECEMBER 22, 2009 BRIEFING ON A CHRISTMAS TERROR ATTACK RISK...WHICH OF COURSE OBAMA DID NOTHING IN RESPONSE TO.

YOU KNOW WHY THE INCREASED SECURITY MEASURES WERE IMPLEMENTED SO FAST AFTER THE DETROIT BOMBER NEAR MISS? DENNIS BLAIR AT DNI RECOMMENDED INCREASED SECURITY MEASURES IN THE DECEMBER 22 REPORT AND OBAMA SAID NO.  SO THEY WERE READY TO GO ONCE THE ACTUAL ATTACK OCCURRED.

OBAMA IS IN DEEP DEEP TROUBLE ON THIS ONE.

185 AHFF, I would be interested to see specifics on this brief and how it would pertain to the actual terror incident.  It sounds like there wasn't anything specific to an airborne bombing threat.  However, if Blair did recommend to increase measures (that part is missing in your post above) and the answer was no, we can monday morning quarterback that big time.  Obviously if there is a recommendation to raise the alert, there was something in the brief that caused that.  The Newsweek article alludes to general indications and downplays their significance (CYA?).  I don't want to start acting like the left did with Bush intelligence briefs i.e. reading more into the briefs than what was there but if there is a recommendation to raise the alert, something was driving that.  In the end, not sure if the increased measures would've done a damn thing for that Xmas flight.  As DHS said, everything worked as planned.

Well, I think the purpose of the leak to newsweek is to try to defuse the issue of the existence of the december 22, 2009 obama meeting and the associated memo "Key Homeland Threats"

Note the bastard leaker took pains to note that the word "Yemen" did not appear, as if that is relevant.

did nigerian appear?

We dont know.

We also do know that Obama took NO ACTION - instead, as i posted on a few MSM sites where im pushing this hard (hehe):

OBAMA HAD NOTICE OF A TERROR ATTACK AS OF DECEMBER 22 2009 AS LIKELY DURING THE HOLIDAYS.

 

OBAMA DID NOTHING - HE DIDNT RAISE THE TERROR ALERT LEVEL, HE DIDNT INCREASE AIRPORT SECURITY - HE DIDNT DO ANYTHING, BECAUSE OBAMA WAS TOO BUSY PUSHING HIS INCREDIBLY DESTRUCTIVE HEALTH CARE BILL THRU THE SENATE, MAKING PHONE CALLS TO NELSON AND LIEBERMAN AND REID AND MAKING SPEECHES ON HEALTH CARE ON THE 22, 23, AND 24TH.  AND THEN LEAVING FOR HAWAII

 

TOO BAD OBAMA WAS TOO BUSY PUSHING HIS HEALTH CARE FRAUD TO DEFEND THE COUNTRY WHEN HE WAS GIVEN NOTICE OF THE PENDING TERROR ATTACK ON DECEMBER 22, 2009.

Questions:

1. why wasnt the terror alert level raised, more security implemented after the december 22 report of a possible holiday attack?
2. why did obama continue to focus 100% on health care garbage instead of national security after he received this report? remember the multiple obama speechs on health care on dec 23 and 24???
3. wtf was janet incompetano doing from dec 22 until Christmas?  How about Dennis Blair? Panetta? 
4. why is obama still in hawaii instead of back in DC doing his job?
5. what specific measures, if any, were implemented to protect against the specific threats outlined in the december 22 report regarding holiday terrorist threats?

203 Remember that Barry has lost Maureen O'Dowd as well.  That's a bitchslap from a bitch.

204 My guess is "the senior administration official" is someone in The Gorillary's office.

205 Stalin died in 1952 when Soros was just getting out of college in London. I don't think that one holds water Not necessarily. They could have been in contact even while Soros was in London. I mean, why not? Is there an minimum age someone has to be do carry out such a thing? Or maybe I heard the story wrong and it was Soros' father Stalin told this too and since he's dead Soros is continuing it.

206 Poor Barry even the Bolsheviks are turning on him. Except for all of the damage that will be done to the country with this nit wit in the White House it could get very amusing watching the left tear itself apart over Barry.

207

Ok..but who do you think it is?

No earthly idea.  I just worry that one day O and the crew will set up something and figure out who the leaker was by process of elimination.  Heck, the CIA could have the place bugged and claim to "sweep" it every morning.  Don't know what kind of access the secretarial staff has either.

208 185 AHFF, I would be interested to see specifics on this brief and how it would pertain to the actual terror incident.  It sounds like there wasn't anything specific to an airborne bombing threat.  However, if Blair did recommend to increase measures (that part is missing in your post above) and the answer was no, we can monday morning quarterback that big time.  Obviously if there is a recommendation to raise the alert, there was something in the brief that caused that.  The Newsweek article alludes to general indications and downplays their significance (CYA?).  I don't want to start acting like the left did with Bush intelligence briefs i.e. reading more into the briefs than what was there but if there is a recommendation to raise the alert, something was driving that.  In the end, not sure if the increased measures would've done a damn thing for that Xmas flight.  As DHS said, everything worked as planned.

the blair thing is my theory....remember how proud janet was that "within 60 or 90 minutes" of the plane landing in detroit, janet said all the new security measures were in place ----

BUT, remember obama was not notifed until THREE HOURS after the plane landed -

ERGO, the plans for increased security measures MUST have been in planning stages already, but not approved, at the time of the attack on Christmas.

anyway its just a guess, and its gonna be fun to see how folks spin this.

i like the spin of obama's 100% health care focus from 22-25th...all the speeches and phone calls, perhaps he should have focused on what his advisors were saying and giving them the green light to increase the terror alert level perhaps??

i dunno.....

209 Questions:

1. why wasnt the terror alert level raised, more security implemented after the december 22 report of a possible holiday attack?
2. why did obama continue to focus 100% on health care garbage instead of national security after he received this report? remember the multiple obama speechs on health care on dec 23 and 24???

5. what specific measures, if any, were implemented to protect against the specific threats outlined in the december 22 report regarding holiday terrorist threats?

Never mentioned is the State Department and Hillary.  It was their responsibility to issue/revoke Visa and they talked to Dad, yet they continue to get a pass while the incompetent DHS takes the hits (yes DHS deserves it's share).

210 This is a planned leak.  If it wasn't, we would have more details AND they wouldn't state that Yemen wasn't in the brief.  Smells like CYA/Get out in front of this debacle type stuff.  If you challenge that he should've done something, guess who get's mentioned.  Bush and the pre 9/11 NIE that was blown way out of proportion.  This is the setup to get to that part of the story.  They are already saying that in regard to former Gitmo detainee's being behind the planning on this and blaming Bush.  This is designed to bring up Bush and lesson the blow to Obama.

211

Note the bastard leaker took pains to note that the word "Yemen" did not appear, as if that is relevant

Geoff...that was in reference to the handwritten...repeat handwritten...report. Further down it says:

 However, the official declined to disclose any other information about the substance of the briefing, including what kind of specific warnings, if any, the President was given about possibly holiday attacks and whether Yemen came up during oral discussions.

212 I too am flummoxed by the free pass Hillary has gotten on this. I believe it was Condi's DoS that gave him the visa, but Hillary's should have revoked it.

I'm off to fact-check myself . . .

213 I wonder who these "youths" were as the article never takes the time to mention any details other than it was in the poorer cities ringing Paris

Remember that to the DemSM, any muslim not collecting a pension and needing a cane to walk is a "youth".

214 Yup, Condi. Abdulmuttalab had been issued a visa by the U.S. Embassy in London valid from June 16, 2008, through June 12, 2010.

Note the bastard leaker took pains to note that the word "Yemen" did not appear, as if that is relevant

Geoff...that was in reference to the handwritten...repeat handwritten...report. Further down it says:

 However, the official declined to disclose any other information about the substance of the briefing, including what kind of specific warnings, if any, the President was given about possibly holiday attacks and whether Yemen came up during oral discussions.

Posted by: rum, sodomy and the lash at January 01, 2010 10:02 PM (AnTyA)

yea, its an interesting story because the facts leaked dont make sense withotu knowing other facts that are withheld.

i stand by my prediction that we have at least three days of fcous on this memo and meeting on dec 22

i hope rush gives the "too much health care focus and not enough security" spin on monday re post dec 22 meeting/memo and pre leaving for hawaii...cmon rush we need ya dude!@

218 he had me at "... escalate the stalemate."

219 ^{_{President Barack Obama received a high-level briefing only three days before Christmas about possible holiday-period terrorist threats against the US, Newsweek has learned.}}

Remember how the Leftoids made such a big deal over a report of increased activity on August 2001 and how "Bush did nothing!" and "Bush could have prevented 9-11"

220 209 Questions:

1. why wasnt the terror alert level raised, more security implemented after the december 22 report of a possible holiday attack?
2. why did obama continue to focus 100% on health care garbage instead of national security after he received this report? remember the multiple obama speechs on health care on dec 23 and 24???
3. wtf was janet incompetano doing from dec 22 until Christmas?  How about Dennis Blair? Panetta? 
4. why is obama still in hawaii instead of back in DC doing his job?
5. what specific measures, if any, were implemented to protect against the specific threats outlined in the december 22 report regarding holiday terrorist threats?

Never mentioned is the State Department and Hillary.  It was their responsibility to issue/revoke Visa and they talked to Dad, yet they continue to get a pass while the incompetent DHS takes the hits (yes DHS deserves it's share).

Posted by: Freida Lay at January 01, 2010 10:00 PM (ax4Qo)

yea, i agree. i fuqed up omitting a rag on hilldog.

indeed, that sorry broad didnt even pull the active visa of this douche after his dad ratted him out.

unbelievably enough, NCTC thought that STate would pull any TIDES list person with an active visa and State thought NCTC would pull any TIDES list person with an active visa - so this bastard got to keep his visa even tho he was put ont he TIDES list. hilldog announced yeseterday that the TIDES list will have all active visas pulled, thank God. its truly amazing we werent doing that already.

221 271 -- AHFF, I saw somewhere, prob'ly Drudge, that Rush isn't coming back till the end of next week.  After what he's been through, I can imagine he's terrified to make the nine-hour flight back to FL without a doc on board -- even with a clean bill of health!

222 I wonder how much the administration even shares with State.  I get the feeling they are kept on the sidelines and out of the loop.  It'd be nice to see Hillary up and quit in the next few days, though. 

223 163 MAYBE THESE MSM LEFTIST HACKS WILL ASK GIBBSY ONCE THEY CATCH UP ON THE LEAK TO NEWSWEEK ABOUT OBAMA'S DECEMBER 22, 2009 BRIEFING ON A CHRISTMAS TERROR ATTACK RISK...WHICH OF COURSE OBAMA DID NOTHING IN RESPONSE TO.

It's curious that Newsweak released this story at all

Somebody with good connections in the DemSM to good intel must have found out that Al Qaida won't spare them for being such understanding compassionate people who only want to help them ease their pain.

But Joan Walsh says King Barry knows what he's doing and she's so proud of him

224 Barack needs to get control over the leak war in Washington.  You have had State get blamed for not cross updating databases, the IC for not acting on this guy for months, the FBI for a series of problems, and DHS for not insisting on the use of the body scanners, and now this.  Everybody is taking a shot at the guy down the hall and is not good for Barry or America.  The dirty laundry needs to fixed in private.

Bush had Cheney to go break kneecaps in the bureaucracy, the scariest guy Barry's got is Ken Jennings (shudder).  The Ken Burris, Blageovich, and other ChiTown scandals may have prevented Barry from staffing the OEOB with some competent heavies -- instead of this collection of communists.

225

"leaving. . .college students on their own" - the number of college students "on their own" has always been pretty small.  My two college students are both living at home and graciously allowing me to pay all the bills and buy food  for them. 

“Mechanisms of voluntary association must be created through which political information can be imparted and political participation encouraged. _{(Port Huron Statement, downloaded from Wikipedia)} -- Sounds like us.  The rest of the PHS sounded like college freshman drivel. 

How does this tool keep living on the public dime?  Do his constituents think it's better to have him in the statehouse instead of on welfare?  Why can't I get a job like that?  I can spout drivel pretty well.  Why won't people elect me to a cushy job like state senator?  No wonder Cali is going bankrupt.

Damn.  Rush needs to set up shop in Hawaii then for the week.  Now is the time to truly eat into Obama's base - soccor moms are teetering.........

227

Eh. It's really just Moby masquerading as Hayden.

 

Oh wait... it isn't...

228 I think I'd rather go hunting with Cheney than get fisted by Jennings.  Just saying.

229 Jean-Pointing the finger is the common character flaw of this group and their complete lack of any leadership qualities will be their demise.

230

Were lefties happy with LBJ?  They don't know why they'll never be happy.

231

Maybe Newsweak is going wobbly on King Barry, but he still has David Brooks

Brooks assures us that there's no need to worry, the system worked, and Barry's pants crease is still perfect

232 If Tapper had posted this, I'd have an easier time believing that this was an unplanned leak.  Newsweek?  No way.  I still remember what they tried to do during the Kerry campaign in '04.

233

Geoff..

The fact that the report was handwritten says to me that there was very limited access to it pre-meeting. Which leads to the impression that whoever the source is was likely in the meeting...and who's identity would be more difficult to determine.

Again, there is no mention of Hillary...or anyone else from State. And it is unlikely that no rep would be at a meeting like this.

The source is Hillary...thru a flunky

234

Newsweek?  No way

Jon Meacham and the Clinton's are very tight.

235  Here is what I don't understand. Peole like Hayden claim that we are a fascist nation and all. If we really were, people would have been asking whatever happened to Tom Hayden and Fonda and Ayers and all of those runaway rectums.

 It ain't like making a body disappear is particularly difficult, if one lives near a large body of water a 55 gallon drum, some wet concrete and a boat and problem solved. or a large building project or an old mine or...

 If police officers were really a bunch of Nazi murderers like the left always called us there'd be no left. Oh well, off to the overnight thread!

236 233

agreed.

politico has this up now .... we'll see how it grows..so far no wapo or nyt

237 AHFF, Drudge has it top left in blazing red. 

238 This outta be fun to watch how it plays out.

sweet.  i emailed matt around 830.

if obama's people didnt leak this, i bet they havea  plan in place about howto respond because they would know it would eventually come out....we'll see it soon i guess--- sunday shows will be all over this

241 240, et al, unless I'm too tired to see what's in front of me, getting a briefing about terrorism is a non-story.  It's a daily event.

242 241

it is the briefing about a terror attack during the holidays.  that justified action by obama, like increased airport security and raisin the terror alert.

obama was too busy pooning the health care system in america at the time to make a decision, so he just left for hawaii without doing shit.

that's the story, and its not a good one for obama.

BREAKING NEWS

A hostile takeover of AoSHQ is reported this evening while CEO Spades nurses a hangover, shirking the duties expected by stake holders. 

Lead by ace reporter Anti-Harkonnen Freedom Fighter, the stake holders hoisted their pitch forks and joined the siege, rendering Spades irrelevant.

Brit Hume will give an in-depth analysis after the break.

245 I was underwhelmed at first, AHFF, but reading your continued comments on this thread, I'm coming around more to your way of thinking. 

246
Okay, whats up with Drudge, he just took the blazing red headline down after only a few minutes and stuck it underneath ?

This is big news.

247

A hostile takeover of AoSHQ is reported this evening while CEO Spades nurses a hangover, shirking the duties expected by stake holders. 

UPDATE:

An unnamed blog official said Mr. O' Spades and most of the co-bloggers were briefed on New Years Eve day about a very likely takeover...but Mr. O' Spades ignored the warnings and went out and got shitfaced on Bartles and Jaymes Mango-Strawberry winecoolers anyway..

hehe funny - although i also had bigtime hangover when i awoke at 8am.  However, i was lucky enough to hang out with an ex-gf last night for the first time in a few yaers.  i got woken up with, ahem, a certain oral activity, and then handed two advils witha glass of water thereafter.   I then fell back asleep.

then, at approx 11am, i woke up to breakfast in bed, bacon, eggs and hashbrowns.

basically i got totally hooked up and overcame the hangover quick - the best start to 2010 i could possibly hope for.

please email this story to jake.tapper@abc.com

he's pretty reponsive whenever I send him items like this.

251 hehe my comment is the first one on the newsweek article. i had to sign up but it was worth it

252 250
thanks man

sure, I emailed jake this story, but I figure several people emaling him would hopefully push him to put it on his blog or at least get jake to ask idiot gibbsy the question concerning this.

254
"Hayden is such a commie, Che Guevara wears a Tom Hayden T-shirt."

No way: Hayden doesn't have the body count.

Now, if he'd helped established a police state, complete with death camps, then Guevara might consider wearing his T-shirt. But now, Hayden's just a mass-murder wannabe: he doesn't even rate.

255 AHFF-they're starting to pile on...check RedState (per Chefess).

256 "If Rahm is going to run for Illinois Senator in 2010, that sounds as though Jackson is officially under the bus."

If Rahm is going to run for the Senate, he'd better get his ass in gear: the primary is February 2.

257 <i>It's time to strip the Obama sticker off my car.</i>

What took you so long, Tom? 

Did you REALLY think I took any of you & your hippie friends' crazy-ass ideas seriously?  REALLY?

Sucker.

And Jeebus!  It took you more than a year to figure out I played you?

Moron.

But thanks for your service... 

BTW, Air Force One is a sweet ride.  And because I'm such a swell guy, you should come join me on one of my "fact finding" missions.  It's the least I can do to pay you back.

But leave the weed at home.

And take a shower before hand.

WITH SOAP!

258 "Yes! YES! We must have show trials of all class criminals!"
(Get the hook, Joe)
"Counter-revolutionary wreckers must be uncovered and PUNISHED!"
(Quick, Joe)

259 Tom.  I'm serious about that soap thing.

I REALLY hate the odor of stale old snatch and patchouli.  It nauseates me so much that I can't get within a block of the State Dept. without getting the dry heaves.

262 Quoting a bumper sticker: "That Obama Bumper sticker on your car might as well say, Yes, I'm stupid."

263 Poor little Haydie Waydie is disappointed in The One. Hahaha

264 The worm may have turned - the NY Times this morning had an article referring to the Pres'ent's mortgage relief program as a "failure."  Could get interesting. 

265 I'm not sure the briefing is in itself anything special.  Presidents get that sort of stuff on a regular basis. 

If the data behind it contained something semi-specific and actionable at the presidential level, then there's something there. 

I would hope it would be a normal thing for TSA to perk up a bit during peak travel periods.

19 Hey, Jane Fonda was pretty hot back in her Barbarella days, even with the stupid shag haircut.  Just sayin.....   ---- -------- --------- ---------- ----------- ------------ ------- Fonda is nothing more than a life support system for a female sex organ.   Hayden figured it out early and punked her badly. He got most of her money and used her name much like Uncle Ho did for personal gain. Serves her right.   There's a special place reserved for Hanoi Jane in the 7th level of hell. She'll have a full military escort to the gates of hell provided by the dead of the USMC. They have special permission to leave their protection detail at the gates of Heaven for this one-time mission.

sorry for the cramped text, something ate my carriage returns... (??)

 

268 Hell I'd be happy if those yahoos would take the Kerry Edwards stickers off.

269

Tom Hayden use to hang around with HANOI JANE a lot in their eco-wackos days

270 Mr. Irrelevant is still alive?

271 Yeah, I think Ol' Tom was banging Hanoi Jane when her cooter still could get wet.

272 #243, yeah, Tom Clancy used that trick in Without Remorse, but it still leaves an identifiable skeleton. The oil drum full of concrete in deeper water works better.
