2 Yes, yes you are.

3 The shortsightedness of this President's weak reaction cannot be overstated. It's not short sightedness, Its cooperation.

4 When bad guys kill a US Ambassador, the American response should be tough and decisive.


Not possible with Barky O'Turdface.  He can only be tough on Tea Party people, white people in general, and anyone who favors the Constitution.


....and Israel

5 Good stuff Laura. This can't be said enough and it must be pushed continuously like Weinergate.

6 Yes but Romney something something something.

7 Lets restart the Barbary wars.

8 Obama, tough on Americans, soft on terrorists.

9 I wonder how long Romney is going to hit him in the debates

10 Dammit, I meant how hard is Romney going to hit him in the debates over this. He should show the anger that the rest of America is showing.

11 You call it the supplicant butt thrust Laura, Obama calls it "Monday".

12 There won't be any debates.  Obama will declare some faux emergency and say he's too busy to participate in them

13 People act surprised by Obungle's actions. But really...he made it clear which side of his bread was buttered. Page 161 of the book his convicted terrorist pal wrote for him spells it out in plain English.....he intended then, and followed through today, to stand with the muzzies.

14 What ever you do, don't post the Islamic part of my multi-million dollar grossing movie "Religulous".  It is 20 minutes of heinous disgusting awful terrrible blasphemy.

16 Ummm, Laura W. is it?...can't you please let me uhhhh, just finish my ummmm, waffle?

17 And the press runs cover for him. Read the NYT piece, "He's alive, praise Allah!" What pap.

18 The only appropriate response, in my mind, would have been B-1 bombers flying at treetop level at the brink of Mach 1, to be followed by uninterrupted sorties of B-52's carpet bombing them back to the f'ing stone age (which is apparently about a week ago) This could then be followed by some humanitarian aid in the form of new underwear and freshly moistened towelets for them to clean up after fouling themselves.

19 The Egyptians haven't had any native talent since they were invaded by the Assyrians.

20 I'm not worried about Muslims, they promised to kill me last.

21 Dear Lord, they don't even have to keep hostages anymore, apparently!

And this makes SCOAMF far worse than Carter.

22 If Obama refuses to debate every Republican should send a hundred bucks to Romney so he can debate an empty chair for 30 minutes on national TV.

Put a dunce cap and  Jerry Wright Doll In the Chair

23 POTUS is the SCOAMFiest SCOAMF to ever manifest himself upon our shores.

Begone, take your pustulent philosophy with you, and never darken Freedom's door again....

24 18. What trees? Libyan.is 100 percent desert. It has no permanent rivers.

25 Debates haven't been real debates in a long long time. And they will be hosted by the MFM so I don't see Romney getting a chance to answer any questions but stuff dealing with social issues.


There will be no questions on the Muzzie East, the economy, unemployment, or anything remotely harmful to O'Shitface.



If Romney wants them he will have to pull a Democrap stunt and answer every question with an answer to an economy question.

26 The "debates" will be just like the ones in the Primaries, shit.

29 If we took a list of our Rights, and asked the JEF which ones he believes in so strongly, that he would be willing to risk his own life to defend, which ones, if any would he choose.

As to the polls? Could the recent events in Libya, and the "Questioning" of the filmmaker be having such a chilling effect on poll responders that they are going the safe route during the questioning, and making their honest response in the voting booth?
One can hope, right?

Carter is weak. The Islamists know he is weak, and they also know he is toast in November. So they'll be running a full court press until he's out of office, to try and make whatever gains they can before Reagan takes over.

 

Wait...I know that's right but something seems a little off.

Less than you think, Vic.

Yeah, all three of the worthless shitweasels are Democrats, but for all their stupidity, Peanut Boy and Cigar Dude seemed to be patriotic Americans most of the time. Osama Obama hates this country, and never misses an opportunity to prove it.

Oh, and something I cynically predicted when the attacks in the M.E. began has come to pass: "Poppin' Fresh" has combined the burning of embassies and the death of an ambassador with Choom Boy's campaigning, and has decided it's an "Obamateurism." That's industrial-strength stupidity, even for Tepid Air.

Oh, and on the debates: just for fun I predict that one will be canceled because of a "scheduling conflict", another will be canceled due to a "national emergency", and the one that actually happens will be one of those annoying town hall formats with a bunch of the usual disadvantaged telling their personal sob stories and asking variations of "what are you going to do for me!"- all to give TFG a chance at an "I Feel Your Pain" moment and make Romney look like the reincarnation of GHWB when in the same situation.

44 Pre 8am content? Is that allowed?

45 That's what I was thinking, Mr. Cochran.

46 44, we do more before six .... err 10

47

Is this what our brave military men and women have been toiling and dying for, all these years? To have our rights summarily pulled away in the end, this way?

 

No, Laura.  What they have been fighting for is to give a bread and circuses-addicted, innumerate, illiterate population the freedom to breed, consume and demand.  A nation of grasshppers counting on the despondency and docility of the ants to keep them happy.

 

Turn on your television.  You think any of the slugs in "reality" shows or the "Cops" variations across the country give a damn about rights?  Or could even enumerate them?  We're worse off than the late Roman Empire, because we don't have an underclass of slaves - we have an underclass of parasites, determined to wring the last bit of money from our pockets and then to kill us before ever having to earn an honest day's living.

 

You remember the 1984 quote about a boot stomping on a face forever.  To paraphrase O'Brien, "Do you want to know what the future will look like, Laura?  Picture a nation of Peggy Josephs demanding your money.  Forever."

48 shit, have to put the cleo noel sock away, you young'uns dont remember him.

49 The only thing barbarians understand is raw power, and their distorted sense of honor. In their eyes we are weak and have no honor. Thanks, SCOAMT. As for Sudan, it should be a courtesy for us to tell them our Marines are securing our embassy, not the embarrassment of asking, being told no, and slinking away with tail between legs. Idiot SCOAMT.

50 Btw, is it safe this morning? I'd never seen an Ace Hulk Smash until last night. Quick, overwhelming and brutal. Interesting to see firsthand though.

51 NY Times reports this little gem (link to NRO):

"When [actor Damien] Lewis sat next to the president at a state dinner last spring, he said Mr. Obama told him, 'While Michelle and the two girls go play tennis on Saturday afternoons, I go in the Oval Office, pretend IÂ’m going to work, and then I switch on Homeland.Â’"

http://t.co/ANMaQgJf

52 Did Reagan signal weakness when he tucked tail and ran after 241 US Marines were killed by towel-heads at a US embassy in Lebanon?

53 This morning for the very first time (that I have seen) broadcast CBS questioned whether the video story was true. They showed the Ambassador Rice clip and then the Libyan President clip but closed by saying it was far too soon to question whether security should have been higher. I actually wrote to our local station complaining that by simply repeating the wire service video excuse in every broadcast they were going to look like liars and fools when it becomes obvious that that story is propaganda from the WH to cover for murdered Americans. I don't expect it to change anything but this is how completely America has fallen---WH puts out an obviously fake story and it goes on the wire services and then every single outlet in the Country simply repeats it for days and days and don't care whether it is true or not. We are Soviet America.

54 They way to answer Sudan is ask the Chinese to relay a message - that if one of our people slips and falls that oil port and pipeline cease to exist.  Don't even talk to them directly, let the heavies carry the mail.

55

Apparently the only problem  we have with  political assasinations is free speech*

 

 *(and Romney).

56 52, yes.  That should have ended with a thunder run thru Damascus

57 It was really inconsiderate of the Ambassador to get himself brutalized and murdered like that.  I mean, didn't he understand that getting killed would cost Obama votes?  Where are his priorities???  Where's his sense of timing? 

And to top it all off, he allowed his dead body to be photographed!  Did he once stop to think about the optics??? 

58 Well, the real irony with all of this is that millions of conservatives voted to elect Obama in the first instance, by not voting for McCain, and in November probably a similar number of conservatives and putative conservatives will vote to reelect Obama, by not voting for Romney. You can't really fix terminally dumb and irrational. That aside, none of this should be surprising. Shit, the only way in which to be surprised by any of this is if you were paying zero attention from the get-go. Obama's core political ethos is one of radical leftism. Inherent in radical leftism is a disdain for America and for its ideals and mores. 1+1 = 2. It's really that simple.

63 Any country that allows our embassy to be attacked does not have a govt that is in control, legitimate, and worthy of our aid, let alone temperance. They are barbarians and the only thing they understand is power. To think otherwise is projection. That are not like us. Why the frick doesn't Mitt come out and say we will consider aid to countries based on their adherence to civilized standards?

64

Very well said, Laura.   I can't begin to put into words how FURIOUS this idiot administration's reaction to   the events in the Middle East has made me.   Not just the righteous fury of an American who's seen four fellow American's murdered without consequence, but as an American who is scared to death for the future of this country.  When we bow to terrorists -- and given Obama's proclivities, that's a literal bow in addition to a metaphorical one -- then we're not America anymore.   I don't know   WHAT we are.   And the fault lies entirely with Obama, Hillary, and every other    member of this weak, foolish, detestable administration.

 

 

PS -- Excellent use of truthaganda (ala Zombie) in the post's headline.   I'd even recommend swapping the two around and making the sub-heading the headline ("The President Rewards The Murderers Of Our Ambassador").   No mercy on the "progressive" bastards.

65 60, and that was before Powell hamstrung us with "you broke, you fix it".  We could have walked away, wiping the smoke from our eyes and kicking the dust from our boots.

66

We've shifted to a siege mentality in the Middle East.  Instead of staying actively engaged and killing Taliban where they live,  our troops are forced to sit in static bases  to be attritted by these double agents.

 

You can either sit in your bunker and accept the situation  as it exists, or you can go on  offense and enforce your own reality.  It's obvious which Fuckhead prefers.

 

Time to un-ass that shithole. All our troops are doing is sitting in place, wondering if they're the unlucky one next time. I am disgusted at how cheaply Obama spends our soldiers' lives, not even demanding payback.

67 Thank you, Laura W.

The reason conservatives didn't vote for McCain was entirely McCain's fault. First, he was a weak candidate, and remains today more of a democrat than a republican. He ran a laughably inept campaign, and paid the price for it. To this day he continues to operate under the belief that the media's portrayal of Republicans as heartless, cruel, and extreme, is the truth, and still takes each and every opportunity to get his fat face in front of the cameras to agree with them.

He took his one touch down pass, (Palin), and instead of running the ball, took a knee, and suspended his campaign to rush back to Washington in order to 'cross the aisle' in support of the left.

 Phinn at September 17, 2012 08:39 AM

I know you mean no harm but that was not needed

89 I will never forgive the MFM stating that our ambassador, SEALS and attaché gave their lives for freedom. They were brutally sacrificed on the altar of the SCOAMT's ME policy. Not only were they not respected enough to be securely guarded, but the JEF partied, compared his campaign workers to the embassy staff, and slept for 15 hours before making an apology. But Romney is bad!

90 Monday Rasmussen: Romney holds at 47-46. Tied at 48 again with leaners. Upon a closer look I realized Obama only gets 82% of blacks which jumps to 94% with leaners. That could be causing some of the disparity between the two polls. He's also down 7 with indies but only 2 including leaners. The wavering republican support is solidly back and was most likely just statistical noise. Swing states: Romney up 47-45. 49-47 with leaners. This poll is seven days so it will always include 2 weekend samples. Damn good numbers for a Monday.

91 But the governor's toooonnnneeeee?!?!?!?!?!?

93 Did Reagan signal weakness when he tucked tail and ran after 241 US Marines were killed by towel-heads at a US embassy in Lebanon?


Sure did.

Yep.  Been saying that for months.  And with the political imprisonment of the film-maker, we are one step closer to Martial Law.  It is 1979 all over again, only this time, we are the hostages.

96 Remember when the Roman Empire was backsliding down to collapse in its later years and it went from kicking complete ass at the drop of a dime and making it VERY clear what was inacceptible to actually paying the various barbarian tribes to b their friends n not to sack Rome? . . . Yeah, thats us.

97 Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction. I begrudgingly acknowledge that those are some fine American principles on display right there. But. . . Egypt & Libya --> The Nakoula photograph. Those fine American principles went out the window as soon as it came to "offenses to the sensibilities" of the foreign versions of the same group with whom Obama went overboard to demonstrate his solidarity on the basis of those fine American principles. Hell, there weren't even any offenses. That was just a cover story. Could it be that those fine American principles were nothing more than window dressing? Were those fine American principles just Obama's excuse to signal his solidarity with America's enemies to America's enemies? The leaders within islam are notorious for issuing two opposite messages in two different languages to two different target audiences. Obama thinks he's slick because he can accomplish the same thing with one message in one language. For eleven years and six days, even the stupidest motherfucker in this country cannot deny that we have been at war with islamists. [quibble: Personally, I believe we are at war with *islam*, and the timeframe should be extended back at least to when that camel-fucking piece of shit, Sayyid Qutb was born.) Whatever his intent, Obama is effectively playing for the other side. I will say it again: OBAMA IS PLAYING FOR THE OTHER SIDE. And, anyone who supports Obama for reelection is PLAYING FOR THE OTHER SIDE. There may not be a thing I can do about it since--at the moment, at least--my personal cost/benefit calculation tells me that I need to keep bullshitting myself and go through the motions that help keep this sham of "civilization" on the road and between the lines, but to echo the SCOAMF: Should SHTF, I know where my us/them line is drawn.

What happened a couple of months ago was, our military jets were used by a foreign power to give air support to the very same guys who did this. At the insistence of Barak Obama and against the interests of our nation, Al Qaeda elements were armed and assisted in the destruction of a, no matter how much he was hated by the world, legitimate government.

Politico has a timeline from the first tweet of a problem in Egypt to when The Won spoke at the Rose Garden on 9/12/12. Four hours later, while four were dead and attacks raged in the Middle East, he jetted off to a fund raiser in Las Vegas.

Wikipedia has a timeline for 9/11/01. When President Bush first spoke to the media, he was still at the elementary school, shortly after two planes had hit the WTC. Minutes later a plan hit the Pentagon. Minutes after that attack, Flight 93 crashed into a field in PA.

112 Kinda OT.
Rassmussan on the question of Freedom of speech over the concern of not offending other cultures. 72% support freedom of speech, "15% consider it more important for the United States to make sure that nothing is done to offend other nations and cultures."  Conservatives are pushing this as good news, I on the other hand think there's something seriously wrong when only 72% of our people feel freedom of speech is more important. Ideally the number should be 100% but I could see some Fascism supporters bringing it down to 99%.

> I've been trying to talk with them, but they are in New York anyway, so does it matter?

Yes, because what everyone will look at is how did Obama do versus Obama. Third-party and stay-at-home votes won't count. The only way to signal a rejection of Obama that matters in our system is to vote for the alternative.

A couple of NYC votes won't matter to the election's outcome, but if enough voters don't express a clear preference against the Big 0, then it weakens the rebuke of the last four years.

And heaven forfend if we win the EV and lose the popular.

116 Should be: "everyone will look at is how did Obama do versus Romney."

121 Barry promised to being those responsible to justice. Sharia justice. But justice just the same

122 Regarding the First Amendment, heck, 30 percent of the country think we're on the right track, so is it any surprise that 15 percent are misguided by free speech.

And I think it's probably worse than that actually. It's easy enough to *say* you favor free speech on a survey, but when push comes to shove a lot more people will want everyone to just "get along."

This is why media tools like Saletan talk about the film's content and the government exposes all this junk about the guy's life. None of that should be relevant, but it helps nudge the FA waverers against him. "Oh yeah, I'm for Bill Maher's First Amendment, but not this dirt bag's."

123 Expect more Chinese faux outrage at Japan today, the Bo Xilai trial starts and a circus is needed.

124 BTW when you look at some of the states included in that Ras Swing State poll, even Romney being tied with Obama is pretty good. So to be up 2, while including a few days of post-convention "bounce" looks excellent.

125 9 I wonder how long Romney is going to hit him in the debates

***

Won't matter.  Romney could beat Oblame-a like a gong for ninety minutes and the next day all the media will report is that Romney is "politicizing" and "exploiting" a "national tragedy". 

126 Went to LGF for a minute. Just to see how far he's fallen. Took about 23 seconds.

127 22 If Obama refuses to debate every Republican should send a hundred bucks to Romney so he can debate an empty chair for 30 minutes on national TV.

Put a dunce cap and Jerry Wright Doll In the Chair

128 Aussie, I cant one Ras without my browser having a fit - what states are in the toss-up market basket?

129 For a couple of minutes last week I wondered if Hillary was apologizing not because she is simply stupid or evil, but scared. That maybe she knew something we didn't and was taking a ridiculous posture to buy some time. But then I sometimes surprise myself with my own naïveté that everyone will always do what is right because they should.

130 42 Oh, and something I cynically predicted when the attacks in the M.E. began has come to pass: "Poppin' Fresh" has combined the burning of embassies and the death of an ambassador with Choom Boy's campaigning, and has decided it's an "Obamateurism." That's industrial-strength stupidity, even for Tepid Air.

132 Well folks got to go.

Only 72%? I could understand that back in the 1700s - maybe - but today? After all of America's success? After all of the examples of repressive governments?

Cripes. I want 80% minimum.

Not possible. 25% to 30% of this country are full fledged moonbats, and would see it burn.

Apparently

 

"Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin...."

 

Considering Obama has nosed ahead a bit in PA and to a lesser extent MI, being up +2 among that lot is pretty good I'd have thought.

137 Oh, sure...the mob was "rushing Ambassador Stevens to the hospital"...in the same sense that Jack the Ripper was "helping fainting ladies lie down for a bit of rest" or the Kristallnacht mobs were helping the Jewish shop-owners "remodel their stores."

A sane, decent mind would be hard-pressed to even imagine a lie more blatant and grotesque.

138

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice said the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi last week was not premeditated, directly contradicting top Libyan officials who say the attack was planned in advance.

“Our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present, is that, in fact, what this began as, it was a spontaneous – not a premeditated – response to what had transpired in Cairo,” Rice told me this morning on “This Week.”

It wasn't premeditated and we have always been at war with Eastasia

139 Jean, who are you??? You remind me of an old friend of mine named Jean who would no doubt agree with you 100% but never speak the words. But maybe she would type them on a blog comment thread...

142 VBJ - Excellent news.  I was wondering last Thursday if Romney would hold a 1 point lead in Ras on Monday, which would indicate about a 2 point shift to him overall during the week.

Of course things can shift back, but all in all a very good result.  The swing state poll looks particularly good.

Laura I can't tell you how many times I've said this same thing to people in person and on the internet.  Thank you.  Why can't people understand?

I see images that say...Coexist or Die!  But that is all wrong.  To a Muslim it is Convert or Die!  It always has been that simple.  Maybe some have put that in the back of their minds for now, but it is still a tenet of their faith.   This is not religion of peace as far as Mohammad was concerned.  The only peace he sought was after he had eliminated all non-believers. He and his followers raised armies to over-throw, not just governments, but their religion, their ideals. 

 

They may not have organized armies today but their goal is still the same.  They don't want to eliminate the United States governement, they want to eliminate Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, etc.  They despise us for our tolerance,

 

 When was the last time you saw a Muslim going door to door to evangelize or holding peaceful rallies to convert people?  They rule by fear not faith, and some people haven't figured that out.     

148 If Romney is up 1 today at , he could be up 4 or 5 by Thursday.

150 The Obama administration thinks they can pacify these guys by doing all this apology stuff. That's why they do it. They do not want this conflict. No one on our side really does. But they think they can paper it over, and what is coming is "are you ready to invade Libya warmonger!!!!" They don't get that they need to be the strong horse.

151 **** these ***holes sideways with cactuses.

We'd like to point out that cactii are not actually robust enough for sideways.

152 Rassmussan on the question of Freedom of speech over the concern of not offending other cultures. 72% support freedom of speech, "15% consider it more important for the United States to make sure that nothing is done to offend other nations and cultures." Conservatives are pushing this as good news, I on the other hand think there's something seriously wrong when only 72% of our people feel freedom of speech is more important. Ideally the number should be 100% but I could see some Fascism supporters bringing it down to 99%.

There's a solid 20% of the electorate that is 100% moonbat.  Of that 20%, I could see 15% feeling it's more important to look after the "feelings" of other cultures over our own freedom of speech.   I agree that 72% is far too low a number;   it   should be at least in the 80's.

153 52 Did Reagan signal weakness when he tucked tail and ran after 241 US Marines were killed by towel-heads at a US embassy in Lebanon?

Yeah.  Weakness was a real Reagan hallmark.  Less than two years after Lebanon, when the Libyan merely bombed a Berlin disco, RR signaled weakness by dispatching F-111s from Britain and bombers from Navy carriers to bomb the crap of the Libyans, including Gaddafi's own house.

Oh, and lest we forget, in 1986 our dhimmi "allies" in France, Spain and Italy refused to allow the F-111's permission to over fly their territories adding a few thousand miles and much more risk to the mission.

Don't apologize, don't stop, seize the conversation before the media has a chance to frame it.

President Obama has said that elevating the image of the United States around the world was one of his proudest foreign policy accomplishments, but those remarks could boomerang and hamper his reelection bid.

The violence and anti-American protests throughout the Middle East are bringing fresh attacks on the presidentÂ’s foreign policies as Muslim rage is intensifying in the region.

In February, Obama said, “One of the proudest things of my three years in office is helping to restore a sense of respect for America around the world, a belief that we are not just defined by the size of our military.”

The ego on this prick is only matched by his anti-Americanism

Can some moron answer a question for me about these polls?

The polls seem to be shifting.  But, does anybody know any actual person who has actually admitted to changing their mind who they intend to vote for?    ("Well, I was for Obama/Romney, until the convention but that Clint Eastwood/Jennifer Granholm speech completely turned me around and now the events in Libya have turned me back around and the events this week will turn me back around again...") 

Does anybody actually know anyone like that?

At this point there is literally nothing that could make me vote for Obama.  Romney could show up for the debate in a clown suit and I'd still vote for him over Obama.   I suspect much the same is true for the vast majority of voters on both sides by now.  So what could possibly account for the dynamics of these polls?

The changes could be explained by undecideds moving to decided but the number of undecideds seems to be pretty constant so that probably is not it.

191 The SCOAMT is a SCOAMTT- Addtl T for traitor.

192 184....that's OK. The troll either woke up earlier than usual or Axelfraud has them on round-the-clock, defcon-2 shifts.

193

No. The Obamo Voters have are void of accountability, fisrt and foremost, which leads to the facts that there are no brains in the oriface known as a skull, and zero morality or self-accountability. I have just finished reading a blog where someone waxed poetic about Clinton's DNC speech and how Jesus freaks, and Bushbots would be the only ones voting for that evil scum Romney. And that Obama had 100% of the black vote, 75% of women and hispanics and even though he takes such flack for voting for Obama there was no way he would ever go R..

This is the problem. No one who has voted for Obama will hold him accountable any fucking where!! They are so blinded by the fact that they voted for a black man, who is half white, that responsibility is, was and will always be, say it with me-- Bush's fault!

We have no recourse and the President has now made us the fools on the hill because he is allowing the power to be wielded over his own citizens.
Go see 2016 and see why.

194

"We are so craven and cowardly now, that we tremble in the face of these mighty Islamist warriors."

We, the American people, are not; Obama, his administration and the ivy-league ruling elites most assuredly are.

They do not speak for me.

207 Nice take down over at the NRO: When it came, Obama’s moment was entirely predictable. It was, after all, self-inflicted: the inevitable fallout of policy crafted by the faculty-lounge pinhead, whose ideas are so saccharine smug there’s never a thought of anything so jejune as their consequences.

All I can say is that if a woman is raped, and law enforcement officials said that it was inexcusable, but the fault of the woman's sister, who wore a slutty outfit a few weeks before, in another state, because the perp HEARD about it, you'd wonder who was more damaged, the perp, or the law enforcment official.

 

The collective rational mind of the US was under an unprecedented assault this past week - we were asked to believe a mind-boggling series of things that nobody with a lick of sense would ever entertain as being true, and sometimes it seems like at least half of the public will buy whatever the media feeds them.

223
President Obama has provided the nation great leadership, and my place is history is firmly cemented as #2!  Thanks President Obama for the historical rewrite.

225 > Nice take down over at the NRO:


Buried in that story is THIS story




The State Department has bought more than $70,000 worth of books authored by President Obama, sending out copies as Christmas gratuities and stocking “key libraries” around the world with “Dreams From My Father” more than a decade after its release.

The U.S. Embassy in Egypt, for instance, spent $28,636 in August 2009 for copies of Mr. ObamaÂ’s best-selling 1995 memoir. Six weeks earlier, the embassy had placed another order for the same book for more than $9,000, federal purchasing records show.


No ammo for our Marine embassy guards, but plenty of copies of the President's 'autobiography' to go around

227 Not only are your enemies watching you, but so are your friends.

Up here in Canada we see a country that screwed us over on the keystone pipeline and now is too irresolute to keep from being cornholed by a bunch of 7th century barbarians, governed by Obama and the Dems, who are apparently insane.

228 Laura, I think it is important to be very precise in the narractive otherwise everything you say will be discounted by those that want to debate (us).  "video maker arrested" is probably incorrect.  "Taken away by brown shirts for questioning" is more accurate.  I don't know which is worse.

Don't fret too much; that's still a pretty good outcome.  Instead of 2 D votes, it becomes 0 D votes.  While New York is probably going to remain a solid Democrat bastion, I think your relatives' reactions are being duplicated in swing states.  Obama is losing voters from 2008 and Romney is going to gain some of them.  I think at the end of the day, the Republicans voting for the fringe candidates will approach zero.

Anyway, last night before I grilled ribeyes my wife complained about my time spent here and at a few other sites. She said she was concerned about "losing me to blogs" and some such nonsense. I responded that this election is probably the most important we have had the opportunity to participate in (I wasn't of age to vote until Reagan's 2nd campaign) and that I wanted to be informed. She countered with, "If it's so damned important, why don't you disconnect from the echo chamber and go out an actually do something like volunteer?" Well, I'm not going to stop coming here, but this afternoon after work I'm heading over to the local GOP HQ and see if they can use my services. Smart woman I married way back when.

You don't think those Romney Democrats are piling on thanks to his ability to connect with the common man like Reagan?

232 Maybe we'll send a tweet to Putin. Posted by: Fred Z at September 17, 2012 10:31 AM (C7TlS) Putin's looking real good right about now, comrade. obama is more of a commie than Putin

233 Insty says Mitt is +6 in NC. I bet new polls that reflect the events of last week will show Mitt stronger. People know weakness and incompetence when they see it; Obama is all that and more.

Wish I could do that. Unfortunately, the lies, distortions and treasonous activities of the Osama Obama regime have become so all-pervading that they are unavoidable. Can't even watch a NASCAR race without at least one commercial for Choom Boy popping up.

There's a quote, I wish I remembered, about when your enemies aren't afraid of you, but your friends are fearful of being your friends.  This has GOT to stop.

 

 

But about the pipeline, wasn't there something about possibly re-routing it?  I wondered what happened with that, and how that looks to the Canadians.  I suspect that the whole idea that the route was the issue is about as valid as blaming the Arab uprisings on some obscure movie that nobody's ever heard of or seen.

 

252 Is it weird or is it cool that Bruce Campbell is running for President?

253 He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation.

254 you know we're screwed when the leader of country where the attacks occurred ADMITS it was a well planned terrorist attack & our scoamf and his administration still say it was spontaneous..... oh and the state dept only began tweeting warning about the violent protest in jakarta 3 hrs after they became violent....these guys are sleeping through their wake up calls........

I'm sure it's been mentioned already, but look at these incidents in Afghanistan too.  Our guys are being killed by enemies who are being trained, or otherwise allowed to move freely among Americans.  Not in firefights, but as sitting ducks when the enemy turns.

Well, I'm not going to stop coming here, but this afternoon after work I'm heading over to the local GOP HQ and see if they can use my services.

 

I've said it often: Get on your county GOP committee. If this stuff matters to you (and it does or we all wouldn't spend so much time here) become a committee person. It's the only way to get the party to listen to you, and the best base from which to take on Democrats.

 

Remember, it's not what happens during the heat of an election that matters most, it's what happens the in the intervening months and years. Shaping the message and the platform. The problem is that for liberals, everything is political. Conservatives, by nature, live their lives and care for their families, with government/politics over there. Liberals live this stuff. We'll never be as obsessed as they are, but we need to engage them more outside of election season.

284 I'm still deciding. On the one hand, Romney is rich and out of touch. On the other, Obama hasn't had any terrorist attacks or scandals on his watch.

287 Dammit, I meant how hard is Romney going to hit him in the debates over this. He should show the anger that the rest of America is showing.

I'll bet Romney doesn't bring it up

288 So I had a dentist appointment this morning and the Time magazine on the table had a story about Romney.  I read it and the only thing I learned is that apparently Romney lost "backwater credibility because he misidentified an elk".  Wtf?

so 'IF' anyone ever asked Obama

"As a result of your policies, which countries have become stronger US allies?"

what would his answer be?

291 @230 Wyatt, after you fixed dinner and did the dishes, did you consider boning her up the squeekhole, just to see the look on her face? Maybe then she wouldn't worry so about losing you. It's all about motivation.

  Oh, look! ...  A chicken!!

297

WHOA, girl!!

 

It's all good, but let's not overstep, lest we open ourselves up to claims of misinformation.  I speak of this sentence:

 

"And had the video maker arrested under sketchy pretext."

 

The way I heard it (here, and at Breitbart), the video maker was brought in for questioning "voluntarily" (after midnight, surrounded by at least 6 cops, with news media snapping pictures).  He was NOT arrested, and was released after about a half hour.  Obama has no authority to order such a thing, and there have been no reports to that he did.

 

On the flip side, we are supposed to believe that this was over a "possible parole violation" that they just HAPPEN to have developed a sudden interest in (in the middle of the night), after the 9/11 events.

 

Oh, and I doubt Obama's groupies NEED him to order them to do this sort of thing.  They're TRUE believers, and know what Dear Leader desires of them.

 

298 KABUL (Reuters) - Protesters in Afghanistan and Indonesia burnt U.S. flags and chanted "Death to America" on Monday in renewed demonstrations over a film mocking the Prophet Mohammad that has unleashed a wave of anti-Western sentiment in the Muslim and Arab world.





Jay "the Clown" Carney: They're not anti-American.

299 I support the wise leadership of our President, Barack Obama, on this matter completely. He has resisted the right-wing calls for more war and violence directed against brown people, calls made solely out of racism and Islamophobia. Only the Wall Street machine and the "international bankers" would profit from the deaths of innocent Muslims at such a time. I would tell all you right-wing haters and morons to be ashamed of yourselves, but I realize how pointless that would be.

300 He was NOT arrested, and was released after about a half hour. Obama has no authority to order such a thing, and there have been no reports to that he did.

Actually, if you note from the infamous photo, he's handcuffed. Setting aside the question of it's legality in the first place, handcuffed on the scene is a common safety precaution taken by police while gaining control of a crime scene or situation.

However, handcuffed and taken away from the scene in the back of a cruiser/paddy wagon by LEOs ALWAYS equals arrest. If he wasn't formally put under arrest before they took him away, that's kidnapping.

301 Both he and Bush have seeded the JCS ,and the chain of command, with pacifists that agree that we should wait until killed before responding - they don't understand the issues involved there and how inconvenient it is for those killed.

302 Doesn't Fast and Furious count? The first one was okay. The sequels are pure derivative crap.

303 Oh my goodness - Yeah - I'm sure all this rings true in your little republican bubble universe. Reality check, you rightie morons: This president will most certainly be re-elected, not only because of your flawed, out-of-touch candidate but also because of your disastrous republican policies. The presidential race that you're surely about to lose will not be a referendum on Obama. It will be complete rejection of your party's policies and yes - even your angry, intolerant, wrong-headed culture. Do yourself a favor and turn off the fox news, turn off the blabberiing idiots, Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh and join us over here in reality land. Why isn't the mainstream mass media in touch with you? It's not because the world has gone crazy. Its because YOU have gone crazy. Its not too late - pull your heads out of your asses, you fringe, deluded idiots. "oh! the 'lamestream' media's gone crazy! We're the only ones who know what's going on!" - Words you usually hear in an insane asylum.

304 Obama is a stuttering clusterf*ck of a miserable failure.

305 The actions of our government are consistent with their objective: to reduce America's wealth, power, and influence.

Although a "... miserable failure" in our eyes, Obama and the people around him are not stupid or inept. Events are unfolding as they had hoped. Their biggest fear is that the mask slips too soon.

If they are patient, a critical mass of Americans will have been convinced to accept being wards of the state, and the opinions of people like us, who are true to the vision of our Founding Fathers, won't matter.

306 Jimmy Joe, having a nice day, are you?

By the way, why is it that we conservative troglodytes are regarded as the dupes of  "... fox news ... the blabberiing idiots, Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh", etc? Are your opinions utterly original and uninfluenced by the likes of MSNBC, Democratic Underground, Kos, etc?

307 You make two very good points, Laura: 1) claiming that these riots are solely about a movie is actually insulting  to Muslims. Hil  and  O should think about that. They are saying that Muzzies are so unhinged they murder  and rampage over a MOVIE. Talk about reverse discrimination! And 2) O is capitulating after the "hostages are dead" -- perfectly stated.

308 You know what's the stupidest thing of all? My liberal sister- & brother-in-law were saying this very thing ("please don't hurt us") 4 years ago when BO was elected. It made me sick to my stomach then, and I hope it makes them sick to theirs now. (However, I doubt it. They consider themselves the smartest people in the room.)

This 'Jihadist' in the White House is repeating Neville Chamberlain who made 'peace in our time' with Hitler in giving away Czechoslovakia and the Sudentenland, which resulted in WWII and 60millions dead and 7 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust.

Obama wants to divide Jerusalem, Jewish for over 3000 yrs. and the 'holyland', Jewish for 5000 yrs. and give it to the very Arabs/Muslims alligned with Hitler and who danced in the streets after '9/11'.

Such betrayal and treachery while Obama allows Iran to get its nukes and tells us not to worry about Muslim Brotherhood, which also supported Hitler and gave birth to Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood now has tanks and missiles in the Sinai in violation of 30 yr. treaty with Israel, while Obama and Hillary, last March, 2011 told us that Assad of Syria was a 'reformer'.  Now over 30,000 dead and 200,000 refugees and Obama is siding with Al Qaeda in Syria and Libya, the Taliban in Afghanistan, has no influence in Iraq since leaving so that Iran is flying troops and its war machine to Syria.

Meanwhile in total violation of Title 18 of U.S. code, Obama has given Hamas and Fatah $2billions while not supposed to giving 'material support to terrorists' and Fatah says its new state(Israel) will be 'Jew Free' and no different than the Nazis saying that Europe and the World would be "Jew Free'.

Our corrupt media whores in bed with Obama have put this country as well as Israel in grave danger.

Obama lied that the attack on 9/11 anniversary against our Consulate in Libya that cost the Ambassador his life as well as 3 other Americans, was due to a video on the prophet, when it was a deliberate terrorist attack from Al Qaeda and gang, as well as the 26 countries with riots from those screaming 'death to Israel' and 'death to America', which Obama is in bed with.

We are in an 'emergency' and another 4 yrs. like these last 4 and America, the West and Israel won't be able to survive this horrible scam in the White House who can't be trusted on any level with his appeasements, lies and treachery.

Wake up America before it is too late. Hold you nose but get Romney in or we won't have a future to worry about.
