CIC Golfs On Memorial Day

This would be his 70th golf outing.  Evidently, respect for the war dead only goes so far with Obama.  After his perfunctory appearance at Arlington, he took off for some q time with his golf clubs.

The president did pay his respects in the morning, laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery, but later in the day traveled to Fort Belvoir to play golf.

 Not that anyone should be surprised, of course.  We shouldn’t expect more from this president, after all, narcissists like Obama can’t possibly be expected to show empathy and he’s not nearly as gifted an actor as Bill Clinton.

Flash Bang Sarah

A helmeted Sarah Palin (some girls really can wear anything) launched her bus tour with Rolling Thunder, ramping up speculation about whether she’s in or is she out.   Naturally, the slavish press is following her every move, hoping for some real or imaginary gaff they can use against her.

The media is “confused”.  Palin is snubbing the press and talking to actual humans instead.  Taking collective cluelessness to a new level, the press is perplexed as to why she would avoid them.

Whatever she’s up to, Palin is forcing the media to deploy a lot of expensive resources to follow her around.

Changing the Way the World Sees Us

Count it as one campaign promise kept.  Obama most assuredly has changed the way the world looks at America.  We are reminded of this daily.

Freedom lover, Lech Walensa snubbed his fellow Nobel recipient, refusing to meet with him. 

Former Pakistani President, Pervez Musharraf called Obama “arrogant”,  joining the world wide chorus.

The British version of the secret service honored the president with an insulting code name.

The Muslim world hasn’t exactly warmed up to us.

But, Obama can surely take credit for changing America’s standing in the world.

America Hearts Bi Bi

The Leader of the Free World addressed both houses of congress yesterday, earning 28 standing O’s.  Barack Obama, understandably, hid out in Europe.

Prime Minister Netanyahu’s speech was remarkable in its clarity.  We’ve not heard that from the podium in some time.  As Obama earned himself a derisive nickname from the British secret service, Bibi was winning hearts and minds in America.

Bibi rightly pointed out that the only place in the middle east in which Arabs enjoy the blessings of liberty is in Israel.

Israel isn’t what’s wrong with the middle east; it’s what’s right with the middle east.

Hope and Change Come to Egypt

Part of Obama’s incoherent middle east policy was the ouster of our long time ally, Hosni Mubarak.  Obama couldn’t get rid of him fast enough.  Too many conservatives should have known better than to celebrate Egypt’s make believe quest for democracy.  Obama’s influence on Egypt, like his influence on the United States, has had devastating consequences.

Egyptians no longer feel secure and are vulnerable to wild promises made by the Muslim Brotherhood; the heir apparent to power.

The tourism industry is suffering.  People with sense don’t flock to unstable middle eastern countries.

Bibi Bests Obama

The leader of the free world spoke eloquently today as Barack Obama silently seethed.  The Israeli Prime Minister responded to Obama’s betrayal speech with clarity and forcefulness.

No, Israel will not neuter itself to appease a hostile American president.  There will be no return to the pre 1967 borders.

No, Palestinian refugees will not be granted safe harbor in Israel to over tax resources and embed themselves.

No, there will be no negotiations with Hamas under the guise of representing some legitimate interests of the Palestinian people.

Cairo II: Obama Sides With Hamas

At least he finally acknowledges his disdain for Israel.  In the Cairo II speech, Barack Obama threw down with the Hamas controlled Palestine in demanding that Israel agree to returning to pre 1967 borders.

In a lighter moment, Obama saw fit to allow Israel to have secure borders.  Let’s hope he is willing to entertain the same possibility for America.

 What Obama has proposed is the destruction of Israel.  A return to pre 1967 borders renders the nation indefensible.

Ronald McDonald, the New Bin Laden

With Osama gone, liberals are focused on their new Enemy of the State–Ronald McDonald.  Over 500 health professionals signed a letter telling McDonald’s to retire the non union card carrying clown who, according to liberals, exerts magic powers over children forcing them to eat unhealthful food while exonerating parents of all responsibility for their kids’ well being.

The campaign was organized by Corporate Accountability International, which also went after Coke and Pepsi over plastic bottles.   The group wants McDonald’s to produce a report assessing it’s “health footprint”.  With carbon footprints falling out of favor, watch for health footprints to be the newest excuse for beating up on corporate America.

Holder: Don’t Call Mohammed and Ahmed Terrorists!

Eric Holder’s FBI has determined that the two would be jihadis with plans for an attack on New York  “clearly” do not represent a threat to homeland security. 

After all, no link has been found to any Tea Party organization.  Nor is there any evidence that the two quasi homegrown terrorists listen to Rush Limbaugh.

Mohammad Mamdouh, 20, and Ahmed Ferhani, 26, both of Queens, were arrested Wednesday night.  Ferhani is a native of Algeria and Mamdouh hails from Morocco.  Mamdouh somehow got here legally; Ferhani’s application is still being considered.  No doubt Holder can expedite.

Obama to Hijack Our Cell Phones

Soon the government will be able to send you text messages and amber alerts.  Liberals always try to paper over government intrusion into our lives with noise about how it will be good for us (it’ll make us all safer!). 

We’ll be able to opt out of these invasions, except for messages from the president.  Messages from the king cannot be turned off.  So we can ignore directions from Michelle about what to have for lunch, but not Obama’s incessant campaigning.

Our Founding Fathers didn’t presage cellular technology but they were pretty clear about our rights to be free from government intrusion.

And it Clears Your Sinuses, Too!

The water boarding debate is back on, primarily because the administration can’t ignore the fact that it led to the elimination of Osama bin Laden.  The enhanced use of a Netti pot is not only effective, it’s also safe for all concerned.

The water boardees are attended to by a plethora of experts, including physicians and psychologists to ensure the protection of their delicate sensibilities.  We also water board our own troops.

Unfortunately, pundits in both camps are confused about how enhanced interrogations actually work.  Liberals are always spewing the fiction that information gained via water boarding is not reliable.  This argument reflects their profound misunderstanding of the process.

Profiles in Incompetence

The sixteen hours Obama spent goofing off while our magnificent SEALS had to wait around for what should have been the ultimate no brainer should have been spent doing at least a minimum of planning.

Sending in the SEALS without a plan for the aftermath is what has enabled the Obama administration to turn a great moment into a typical Obama train wreck.  Did no one in the administration bother to consider the possibility that the photos could become an issue? 

First, we were told the government would release the photo of the results of Navy SEALS vs bin Laden.  The photos never materialized, unless you happened to be a member of the ruling class.

Profiles in Dithering

Conservatives need to knock off the nauseating accolades to Obama for the killing of Osama bin Laden.  If you want to honor someone, it should be our magnificent Navy SEALS and the military personnel who supported the mission.  Nothing can deter a SEAL from his mission–except for a dithering politician.

The Ditherer in Chief took 16 hours to make up his mind after the intel was solidly in place.  He left our SEALS, the CIA and other senior officials to cool their jets as he tended to more important matters like perfecting his golf swing.

Getting Osama: Low Risk, High Reward

A little perspective, please.  No mater  how Obama tries to spin it, he did not personally rappel out of a helicopter and take the perfect head shot that put bin Laden out of commission.

Nor was his decision to unleash our magnificent  Navy SEALS a singular act of courage.  Osama had been chillin the burbs for years.  Somehow we got the right intel  just about the time that Obama’s poll numbers began to free fall.  Dropping a bomb would net him less political rewards.  There was the risk of being unable to prove that bin Laden had indeed gone home to Allah.

Delusional Libs Think WOT is Over

Although they are generally quite rabid in their defense of terrorists; insisting on trying the poor misunderstood misfits in civilian courts and referring to the enhanced use of a Neti pot as “torture”, liberals have always been entirely comfortable with killing Bin Laden.

Perhaps it’s to overcompensate for the phenomenal screw ups by their beloved Bill Clinton, who flatly refused to take Bin Laden when he was literally offered up on a platter.  Give them credit for chutzpah–no liberal is reeling in horror at the sight of Clinton’s wife boasting about the Bin Laden kill.

Ooops, Intel Came From . . . Gitmo

Libs will be deeply disturbed to know that the intel leading our magnificent SEALS to the compound where Binny was kickin it in the ‘burbs for  God knows how long came from a Gitmo detainee.

We’ve listened to nearly a decade of liberal caterwauling about the sinister uselessness of the seaside resort known as Club Gitmo which wrongfully houses a bunch of harmless do gooders.  Yet, their beloved president never did get around to shutting the place down.

As in all things, liberals had it completely wrong.

But They’re Only Red States

Busy as ever with responding to private citizen Trump about his birth certificate and on the campaign trail, the president has yet to react to the devastating storms in the southeast. 

A mile wide tornado ripped through Alabama leaving parts of entire cities completely gone.  Flooding and destruction spread across a number of states.  The death toll is rising.  The property damage is incalculable at this time.  The Alabama guard is out.

Mute the Trumpet

Ignoring a fundamental rule of politics–you never punch down, only up– the President of the United States called a press conference to respond to private citizen, Donald Trump’s requests that the president produce his birth certificate.

Obama just wouldn’t be Obama if he didn’t throw in a little whining about how hard it is to get networks to interrupt their programming for his oh-so-important eternal speechifying.

At long last, Obama has produced something purported to be a birth certificate.  In due time, there will be plenty of analysis of its authenticity.  Meanwhile, Trump has sworn to use his special powers only for good.

Tyrant Obama Finds New Way to Wreck Business

Emperor Obama has found yet another way torment business and bend corporate policies to his will.  The 83 year old long time CEO of  Forest Laboratories, Inc., Howard Solomon’s son once wrote a book about depression that so moved his father, he led to company to market the anti depressant medications, Celexa and Lexapro.

HHS has started invoking a rarely used policy that enables the government to ban health industry companies from doing business with the government if there has been criminal activity by the company, whether or not the corporate leadership was involved or even aware.

Obamanomics: China to Take Over by 2016

2012 presidential hopeful, Barack Obama is celebrating a milestone in his war on America’s economy.  The IMF has announced that by 2016, China will surpass the United States as the world’s largest economy.

Using real terms, rather than buy into China’s  imaginary devaluation of its currency, we’re a mere five years away from being kicked down the ladder by China. 

Irrespective of liberal bleating to the contrary, a world in which the U.S. is the dominant force is a far better place than any of the alternatives.
