I'm Baltimored Out

You can't swing a wet cat in Baltimore without hitting a news reporter. Well, there aren't any actual news reporters anymore, they have all gone with the pure discipline of journalism, but you get the drift.

Also, you cannot turn on Fox News or CNN without getting an overdose of what's going on, up to the minute, in Baltimore. 

Geraldo Rivera is doing his macho street strut surrounded by crowds of thugs who no longer want to be described in such unflattering terms. Therefore, I will refer to them as private property integrity testers and structural repositioning engineers (among others things).

These rioters have gotten into Rivera's face, screaming racial epithets while he holds his ground and tries to communicate the fact that he's been there, done that and understands their pain and suffering, in spite of his living in cool digs in lower Manhattan.

The real pain many of these miscreants may have felt was if a TV they stole fell on a toe, or if they singed themselves while burning down a CVS or a senior residence under construction.


But the best part of the whole riot scene was the predictable appearance of the man who makes his living from the anger and misery of black folks, the very semi-Reverend Al Sharptongue.

When Leland Vittert tried to have a hallway interview with the liberal mayor of the city, the apparently honorable Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, "The Tongue," (who may or may not have been working for the Fox News competitor MSNBC) stayed in-between Vittert and the mayor and refused him the interview.hey Rawlings-Blake said nothing and, like Barack Obama, let someone else lead from the front as she hung back.

One of the mayor's much-needed bodyguards pushed Vittert back (although he posed no threat other that asking a question that would uncover her ineptitude. It was very entertaining and quite illuminating.

This week's contest: name one major American city in the United States with a history of liberal mayors that has thrived as a city and whose population has thrived economically.

As for me, I'm all Baltimored out. 

It's a false narrative perpetuated by anarchists who hate America and opportunistically use these incidents to cause rioting, misery and destruction of our capitalistic society. Anarchists want to do away with all government, including the police. They hate authority maybe because their mommies didn't breast feed them and daddy wasn't around.

This weeks question: can Al Sharpton be sued by Fox News for interfering with Leland Vittert's attempt at interviewing the mayor?

But really, I'm all Baltimored out.

Breaking: the riot in Baltimore as it now stands

It's beginning to look like the future is going to be bright and lucrative for the race hustlers like Al Sharptongue and Jessie Jackson. They have Baltimore, MD to rev up the racial tension, and this is where they can rake in the big bucks.

The kids sent out a meme to "purge" after school, and purge they did. In fact, it's still going on as I am blogging this.

This follows the funeral of Freddie Gray, a 25 year old black man who 8 days ago, mysteriously died of a broken spine after being arrested, put into a police transport vehicle, and exiting the vehicle with a broken spine.

Even Elijah Cummings ( MD-D) attended the funeral, sounding more like an angry Rev. Jeremiah Wright than a US Senator. He's been in office since 1996 and is the poster guy for term limits.

Baltimore's mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, an idiot liberal, said that the protesters should have space to express their anger.

The big problem is that the investigation into the death of Mr. Gray is ongoing and this is angering the public more. One thing known is that he was put in that van unbuckled and given a rough ride. Heads should probably roll, but rioting and destroying property is uncalled for and must be stopped.

The police are vastly outnumbered and at times overwhelmed by the crowd of young people throwing bricks, bottles and whatever they can get their hands on to toss. At this time, there are 7 injured cops, one of whom is "unresponsive," according to the police. A number of arrests have been made, but more are sure to come as night approaches.

State police have been called in but the governor, Larry Hogan (R) refuses to declare a state of emergency and said that it is too soon to bring in the National Guard. He is obviously an idiot and should cross over to the Democratic party to increase their average IQ as well as the average IQ on the right side of the aisle by his leaving.

The Gray family attorney is calling for law and order, but there are rioters and looters who don't care about Freddie Gray and see this as an opportunity to burn stuff and steal whatever they can get from the small businesses they are looting. This is anarchy at its worst.

Let's hope and pray that law enforcement enforces the law and that tonight things will calm down. 

Let's also hope and pray that justice is done in the case of Mr. Gray's death. The pubic needs and deserves answers.

Is the GOP going soft on death penalty?

Nebraska's Republican-majority Legislature appears to be moving away from the death penalty, according to Fox News. Having always believed in "an eye for an eye," the lawmakers recently voted 30 to 13 to repeal the state's capital punishment law.

Gov. Pete Ricketts (R) said he would veto the bill, but it seems that the tide is turning away from the death penalty to a more sweet and softer side of dealing with murderers.

This change in thinking comes in light of the recent number of executions that had problems in being  carried out properly.

 In some cases, lethal injections caused pain and suffering of convicted murderers of innocent people. That should break our hearts--causing pain and suffering to someone who,  let's say, rapes a child, or kills an innocent person, or blows up a group of innocent people at a sporting event, is being insensitive and cruel.

In other cases, the lethal injection dosages weren't enough to cause death, only impaired brain functioning which resulted in a rash of liberals and MSNBC hosts.

That, in itself, is tragic.

According to Fox News, some Nebraska conservatives feel that capital punishment is unfair to victims' families because they must wait for years to see it carried out. I see this as a valid point, but not an insurmountable one. 

The solution: speed of the repeal process and make it a one-time appeal. If the appeal isn't granted, carry out the punishment. I know that I sound cold and callous to many liberals and others who oppose the death penalty, but I believe that the death penalty works as a deterrent to those that it is imposed upon. They will never repeat the villainous act that got them to be punished.

Some opponents of capital punishment say that it's anti-ethical to their anti-abortion beliefs. 

Since when is an unborn baby guilty of murder? If you are saying that all life is sacred, I respect your opinion but respectfully disagree. Some lives cause misery and suffering to innocent victims, and people like Osama bin Laden, Hitler, Islamic State jihadists, child killers and brutal murderers need to be destroyed for the sake of humanity. There is no moral equivalency of killing an unborn child and ridding society of these barbarians.

Currently, 32 states retain the use of capital punishment while 6 states have abolished it since 2007. Other states have a moratorium on capital punishment and Delaware is considering a bill to abolish it altogether.

Defense Budget Blues and Bergdahl

Chuck Hagel said that he would respond to questions about why the Pentagon did not give Congress the required 30-day notice prior to the prison trade of the traitor Bowe Bergdahl for five Taliban scumcrumpets. This is required by law according to the National Defense Security Act.

But dude, that was like a year ago and the Pentagon only released emails that provided as much information as Hillary's emails. They were so redacted with blacked out words that the toner cartridges had to be changed every four minutes when photocopying them.

The head of the House Armed Services Committee, Mac Thornberry (R-Tx)  is threatening to ask the committee to withhold funding for defense spending if the stonewalling continues. GOP lawmakers will attempt to lock down $500 million until the Pentagon gives up all the documents to this committee for its investigation. This amounts to about a quarter of the defense secretary's office budget, so it isn't about paperclips and toner.

Thornberry plans to introduce a provision to the 2016 National Defense Authorization Act to withhold the money from Defense Secretary Ash Carter's budget until all emails are turned over unredacted. 

One email was of a Pentagon public affairs officers telling a defense attorney what information that they planned to release to the press about the transfer of the scumcrumpets from Gitmo. 

Of course, all the relevant parts were redacted.

Along with removal of the redactions, the committee demands all documents be handed over that relate to the DoJ's recommendations over the Bergdahl swap. The committee argued that key interagency communications on the trade had not been produced. (I would check Hillary's server. It probably has nothing on it related to this case but who cares?)

A source closely involved with the investigation said, "We have no idea what percent of the emails we have. It's taken a year."

I can hear the response from the White House spokes socialist: "That's the point, dude. It's ancient history. We have to move on; let it go."

University of Maryland feeds the crocodile

"An appeaser is one who feeds the crocodile, hoping it will eat him last" Winston H. Churchill

The University of Maryland, College Park has over 28,000 students. Of these, 73% get financial aid, and the student to faculty ratio is about 18:1. The school ranks 41st in research institutes and 43rd overall in the Northeast. The total annual cost is over $42 thousand. 

There are a lot of better schools to choose from other than the University of Maryland (UM, aka DUH) but they made the news cycle by refusing to allow the screening of "American Sniper" to be shown.

The Muslim Students Association (pronounced Muslim Brotherhood) complained that the movie "perpetuates the spread of Islamophobia and is offensive to many Muslims around the world for good reason," I have to disagree in part.

Yes, I agree that this movie might be offensive to many Muslims around the world, particularly the Muslims who hate a free society where religion is practiced or not practiced as one chooses. It is also attractive to Muslims who hate America because that is what the movie is about, in a way. But it doesn't disrespect Islam, just radical Islam, a term our radical president refuses to label those who cause infidels to be phobic about Islam.

A phobia is an irrational reaction to an imagined threat. Islamic terrorism is far from being imagined. Western society has reached an Islamic "overkill" point (forgive the use of that word), with all the violence being perpetrated against Christians, Jews and other infidels throughout the world. It isn't irrational at all.

The "M" stands for "MSA Approved"

Only 250 people signed the petition that was being circulated on the campus to stop the showing of American Sniper. That's 250 out of 28,000, or less than 1 percent, that was able to cause a level of Islamophobia (actual fear of how the Muslim students would react if the movie was screened) among the school's so-called administration.

"American Sniper" is not about hating Muslims--jihadists cause more of those feeling just by their barbaric actions--it's about the horrors of war and how it affects the lives of those who go to war. If anything, there is a poignancy to the movie, but I suspect the MSA people didn't actually see the movie. 

It reminds me of the guy who complained to the person at the front desk of the gym I attend. He was insulted that I was reading "The Truth About Mohammed" by Robert Spencer. He admitted he hadn't read it, and Mike, the guy at the desk told him that in this country we can read whatever we want.

Ironically, I got the book from the library and the complainer never bothered to say anything to the head librarian.

It's funny how the MSA and other Muslim Brotherhood tentacles use their Constitutional rights to stomp on the rights of those with different beliefs, which is stomping on the Constitution in the first place.

If this bothers you as an American, regardless of your religious affiliation, if any, you can contact the President of the University of Maryland:

Dr. Wallace D. Loh
President, University of Maryland
Phone: 301.405.5803

Islamic Jihadists Fire Rocket at Israel

The Israel Defense Force (IDF) countered a single rocket attack launched at Israel's Shaar Henegev Regional Council on Thursday evening, as the country celebrated their 67th year as an independent nation, Israel Hayom reported.

No humans were injured or killed in the attack because the rocket fired by these terrorists was not guided electronically, which means that it couldn't be specifically aimed at military targets, so children, hospitals, women and other civilians were in equal danger from this kind of attack, but Israelis were able to take cover when it occurred as the Color Red alert gave warning. The attack occurred at around 9 pm.

 For Islamic jihadists killing Jews and Christians is a way of Islamic worship (Qur'an 5:51-52, 47: 3-4; and my favorite: 61:4 which says: "Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way," to mention only a few). Killing Jewish babies and children is no different than killing an adult. Islami calls Jews and Christians "apes and pigs," and killing them is ridding the earth of these "vile creatures."

Defense officials believe the rocket was the work of a splinter terrorist group and not Hamas. The rocket exploded in a field in the Shaar Hanegev Regional Council destroying several plants and devastating an ant colony that had recently returned to the area after having left a picnic under a tree planted by a Hebrew school class in Queens, New York.

The IDF retaliated by shelling Hamas infrastructure, (a Hamas training facility) in the northeast Gaza town of Beit Hanoun. Gaza health official (no, it isn't an oxymoron because it isn't about mental health) Ashraf al-Kidra (I kid ya not) said no Hamassholes were injured in that retaliation.

An IDF Spokesperson's Unit in a statement said that "[T]he IDF will not tolerate any attempt to undermine Israel's security or harm Israeli citizens."

The jihadist perp or perps were not apprehended, but the IDF believes Hamas has been attempting to lessen rocket attacks in order to avoid security escalation. 

But it is highly likely that Hamas sees the attack by the lone goat-humper as a good idea and in keeping with the Islamic tradition of hating Jews because Allah can't seem to stop himself from making them.

State Department Considering a $50 Billion "Signing Bonus" for Iran

"I'll be more flexible once you sign"

The Iranian economy rebounded out of recession and had an estimated growth of 3% last year, better than the Obama administration's 2.4% growth for the same year. Nevertheless, if John "Lurch" Kerry wants to seal a nuclear deal with the terrorist nation by June 30th, a deal that will delay them from acquiring a nuclear bomb several weeks later than they would without a deal, he might have to offer them a "signing bonus." The amount under consideration is $50 billion, not what you think of as "chump change," and enough moolah to put into their defense spending budget.

The Obama obamination has developed a plan to unfreeze tens of billions of Iranian funds if they just sign the damn thing. That's all Obama wants, and all that Kerry wants, and both for personal reasons, it seems.

Obama wants a better legacy than his current cluster-fudge has produced and Kerry wants to win a Nobel Peace Prize so he can pick up chicks. Oh wait, that's Bill Clinton. Kerry just wants the Prize so he can be amongst the world's greatest peacemakers like Yassar Arafat, Barack Obama, and Al Gore.

This "signing bonus,"  was first reported by The Wall Street Journal saying that it could be the largest cash infusion to a terror-backing regime in recent memory. But since when has Obama been shy about supporting our enemies and kicking our allies?

The $50 billion "signing bonus" would be in addition to the over $11 billion in unfrozen assets Iran already has received under an interim nuclear accord from 2013. 

It feels like Obama is the kid in the schoolyard who pays off the bullies with his lunch money, but the money was never his in the first place. But State Department Spokesbimbo, Marie Harf, poo-pooed reporters and in true Alinsky fashion, blamed them for getting all "spun up" on the issue.

When asked whether Iran could get the $50 billion "on day one after signing" or verbally agreeing to a nuclear deal, the arrogant Harf told the press that she would "look into it," implying that like Obama, she hadn't yet learned of the deal from the media.

These are the people who are supposed to be working for us, the people. But it certainly feels like they have it all backwards. Well, kind of like Obama's alliances and behavior to Christians and Jews versus Muslims and its Brotherhood organization.

Pamela Geller's Ad Stays: First Amendment Wins

In spite of the fact that New York City mayor Bill Di Blasio is the most left-wing socialist the city ever had the misfortune of electing for the job, and a guy who isn't a big fan of the US Constitution when it allows someone to challenge his beliefs, the First Amendment won the day.

American Freedom Defense Initiative, headed by Pamela Geller, won a legal battle against the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and their claim that AFDI's pro-Israel ad represents hate speech. The ad will be displayed on city buses and contains the phrase "Hamas Killing Jews," which is simply taken from Hamas' statements about Jews and their actually killing Jews for religious reasons.

The ruling came on Tuesday from Judge John Koeltl. He ruled that the ad is protected speech, although he added that he was sensitive to the MTA's claim that it could incite violence [from violent Islamists for being called violent Islamists].

On the other hand, he pointed out that no violence occurred in San Francisco and Chicago in 2013 when the same ads were posted on city transit.

"Under the First Amendment, the fear of such spontaneous attacks, without more, cannot override individuals' rights to freedom of expression," Koeltl said in a ruling, and stayed the effect of the decision for 30 days so it will have the opportunity to be appealed by such terrorist-supporting, anti-Semitic, homophobic, misogynist organizations like CAIR (the Council on American-Islamic Relations) and other arms of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Adam Lisbery, the MTA spokesman and a staunch Islamic appeaser or Dhimmi, said they were disappointed with the ruling and they will be reviewing their options [hoping in the interim that the anti-anti-Semitic ads do not provoke anti-Semitic violence].

David Yerushalmi, the attorney for AFDI said the decision "sends a strong message both to government bureaucrats who would restrict our freedom of speech based upon what they perceive to be a global jihadist threat, and it also sends a telling message to our enemies abroad and at home: their threats of violence will not prevent the courts from upholding the First Amendment."

It's always laughable how upset CAIR and other sphincters of the Muslim Brotherhood get when their so-called "holy book," the Koran, is quoted word-for-word and exposes the anti-Semitism, intolerance, and overt hatred Islam has for all infidels, especially Jews. 

Vermin never like sunlight or being openly exposed. Why not quote their holy book? What are they trying to hide?

Our Chips are in the Middle of the Table with Iran

The aircraft carrier USS Teddy Roosevelt (CVN 71) and its battle group are now shadowing an Iranian convoy approaching Yemen. It is believed that the Iranians are carrying weapons for the Houthis, rebel fighters supported by Iran.

The USS Theodore Roosevelt, or "TR" and "the Big Stick" as it's known to its crew and the Navy, has been launching F/A-18 Hornets for "manned reconnaissance" of the Iranian convoy. It appears that it consists of 9 ships.

The situation is tricky, as the Obama administration is trying to give Iran almost everything under the sun to close the nuclear deal (which will likely give Iran a nuclear weapon) and the US engages in a proxy war along with its allies against Iran. 

But when has Obama ever stood up for our allies?

Navy officials confirmed that the USS Roosevelt along with the full battle group vessels has been dispatched to the Arabian Sea in order to enforce a blockade of Iranian weapons.

The Iranian convoy consists of a mix of freighters thought to be carrying the weapons, and a few warships.

Our Navy battle group consists of:

USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) is a Nimitz-class carrier carrying about 90 warplanes and helicopters. It can go over 30 knots when pissed off or carrying out flight operations. The Big Stick first saw action in 1991 in Operation Desert Storm.

USS Normandy (CG 60) is a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser with naval guns, anti-air, anti-surface, and anti-submarine. It also has 2 helicopters on board.

USS New York (LPD-21) is a San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock or Landing Platform Dock. It transports and lands 800 very angry United States Marines at a speed of about 22 plus knots.

USS Fort McHenry (LSD-43) is a Whidbey Island-class dock landing ship named after the fort that inspired Francis Scott Key to write The Star-Spangled Banner. It carries 402 United States Marines and if needed for a surge, an additional 102. Try stopping them, Iran.

USS Winston S. Churchill (DDG-81) is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer of the badass variety. Winnie's is fitted with the Mark 45 Mod 4 Naval Gun System, which have longer barrels to allow for complete propellant combustion. This kicks out the round faster and further making it new and improved over anything the Iranians have. Even its gun house is designed to reduce its radar signature, kind of like the B-1 Bomber. Its motto is: "In war: Resolution; in peace: Good Will." It can go above 30 knots.

USS Forrest Sherman (DDG-98) like the USS Winston S. Churchill, is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer launched on October 2, 2004. Her motto is: "Relentless fighting spirit."

USS Iwo Jima (LHD-7) is a Wasp-class amphibious assault ship named after the famous WW2 battle where Pfc. Jacklyn H. Lucas USMC was awarded the Medal of Honor. Lucas placed his Medal of Honor citation in the hull of the ship, where it remains today. The ship's motto is: "Uncommon Valor."

USS Sentry (MCM-3) and USS Dextrous (MCM-13) are both Mine Counter Measure ships, just in case Iran has any bright ideas of trying to counter our Navy battle group.

If Iran's convoy needs to be stopped because of their ambition to arm the Houthis, this group can do it. Iran is good at blowing up fake US Navy ships, but I believe these babies will get them to think twice before trying anything as foolish as starting a shooting war. They don't need it and we don't want it to get to that point.

While it's uncertain how far we would go to enforce the embargo, the Navy conducts consensual boardings when necessary. Thus far, it hasn't been needed, but it remains to be seen what Iran's next step is going to be. Unfortunately, we have a president who has just made it clear that he is unclear as to what he might do at this point. He is reluctant to take the next step now that he put all our chips in the middle of the table.

Pressure Mounts to Free the 4 Americans in Iran

The Obama administration is finally being pressured into including the four Americans imprisoned in Iran to be made part of the nuclear talks deal. 

The four idiots who think Iran deal is a good one

The latest case of an American being held in prison there came with the Washington Post Tehran bureau chief Jason Rezaian. He is being falsely charged with espionage, collaboration with foreign entities, dissemination of information, and propaganda. In America, we call it MSNBC.

The Obama administration has been working feverishly night and day, using every form of diplomacy at their disposal to free Jason, along with the other three Americans being held there, but, unfortunately, I am saying things that I only wish were true but that aren't.

Rezaian and his wife were arrested in 2014 but she was eventually released. Jason, however, remains in Evin Prison, known for its brutality and torture. The charges mentioned on Monday were the first publicly described excuses that Iran has made for holding him. The information came from his lawyers, not from the court.

State Department spokes-moron, Marie Harf, said that "He should immediately be freed so he can return to his family. The charges should immediately be dismissed," she said, tossing her blond ringlets to and fro and huffing inexorably to the beat of a different drum in her head.

Josh's anal retentive mode

White House Press Secretary and Obama apologist Josh-Not-So-Earnest said basically the same thing as Harf said. Perhaps they are sleeping together, but be it far from me to say that since, like Harry Reid's comments about Romney's taxes, I have no proof but the word on the street is out.

But Earnest said the talks are very "complicated" and rather than chew gum and walk at the same time, the so-called administration must focus on one issue at a time. Reminds me of Hillary's reason for only one e-device.

Amir Hekmati, the US Marine, has been held by these Shi'ite Muslim terrorists since August 2011. He supposedly spied for the CIA, which was news to him. Actually, he went to Iran to visit his grandmother and others in the home country of his parents. The Veterans of Foreign Wars called for Amir's release to be part of the nuclear dealings.

"I am demanding that the U.S. government make his [Hakmati's] release a nonnegotiable part of whatever deal is cut with Iran," VFW National Commander John Stroud said in a statement, adding "his Iranian captors are torturing a former Marine and a fellow VFW member."

Rep. Duncan Hunter R-Calif., said: "There's a lot wrong with negotiating a deal with Iran, but the ongoing nuclear talks--love them or hate them--are probably the only chance for the Administration to ask for the return of Amir Hekmati and other. Frankly, it should have happened already, ahead of reaching just the framework, but with each day and concession, the Administration loses its leverage and influence."

Speaking of the Bergdahl release for 5 Taliban terrorists Stroud said: "If our government can swap five of the worst terrorists for one American soldier, we can certainly make the safe release of one former Marine an unconditional part of a deal that has yet been formalized."

John Kerry has yet to remove his thumb from his nether regions to get this started. In fact, administration officials had insisted that these talks will not involve non-nuclear issues (read: "We don't want to offend them--they might walk away"). But the American public has had enough crap from this inept, do-nothing White House.



Free them all now, Mr. Obama.

Breaking: US Navy Ships Heading To Yemen

Breaking: the USS Theodore Roosevelt is heading toward the waters off the coast of Yemen to join other American vessels that are prepared to intercept any Iranian ships transporting weapons to aid the Houthi rebels fighting for their version of Allah in Yemen with the blessings of Iran and the Supreme Leader that Obama trusts with nukes.

The Navy has been increasing its presence in the Gulf of Aden based on reports that a convoy of Iranian ships may be heading toward the Yemeni shores to arm the Shi'ite Muslim rebels known as the Houthis.

The Houthis, like all good jihadists everywhere, are fighting the government-sponsored military in order to take over the country and proclaim it for their version of Allah.

But, like many world leaders, such as Barack Obama and David Cameron have said, they don't know jack about Allah, only they do and all of that global fighting is un-Islamic. (However, they don't seem to be able to find that Sura in the Koran that says you ought not to "fight the unbelievers wherever you find them."

So as it stands at this very moment there are approximately 9 U.S. ships in the region which consists of cruisers and destroyers carrying badass dudes ready to board and search the Iranian ships if this all goes down. 

Stay tuned.

Gen. Dempsey "is not symbolic of a military leader"

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin Dempsey, said publicly that defending Iraq's city of Ramadi is of secondary importance compared with protecting the Beiji oil refinery from ISIS.

Jon Harper in Stars and Stripes admitted that the terror group may be on the verge of overrunning Ramadi, but said, "The city itself is not symbolic in any way," adding that the fall of the city would be more of a humanitarian problem than a strategic one.

"It's not been declared part of [Islamic State's] 'caliphate' on one hand or central to the future of Iraq. I would much rather that Ramadi not fall, but it won't be the end of a campaign" if it does, the Obama butt-kisser said.

Dempsey went on to discuss the need for Iraqi forces to control Beiji, but never acknowledged the American blood shed in taking it the first time and how it is very symbolic to the families of those who died doing so.

In an open letter to Dempsey, displayed on Fox News, Debbie Lee, the mother of the first Navy SEAL to die in Ramadi was  posted. His name was Marc Lee.

She asked the General if he would be willing to meet with the families of those who died there. She pointed out that many military analysts believe that "as goes Ramadi so goes Iraq."

She poignantly said that she had traveled to Iraq in 2010 and spoke with Iraq General Anwer and asked him "If you could say one thing to the American people what would you tell them?"

He replied: "We will tell our children, our grandchildren for generations, to come we will tell them what Americans have done. There is American blood poured out on our soil."

Debbie Lee added that it seems like General Anwer knew more about Ramadi's significance than he did.

She closed the letter to Dempsey: "You and this administration have minimized that Ramadi could fall, now you are minimizing that it is falling, but you Sir WILL NOT minimize the sacrifice my son Marc Lee made or any of our brave warriors!

Awaiting an Apology

Debbie Lee

So far, the apology has not come.

The U.S. engaged in two battles for Ramadi: 2005 and 2006. In the second fighting, 75 U.S. Soldiers and Marines were killed and 200 wounded.

Not symbolic in any way, General Dempsey?

It seems obvious that even our military has become politicized and the "few good men" are long gone. Hopefully, the military is still looking to find them.

"Mr. Obama, lift those sanctions" -- Ayatollah

Showing his compared to Obama's

Tehran, Iran-- Gen. Hossein Salami (on rye)  the deputy leader in Iran's Revolutionary Guard, made it clear Sunday that nuclear site inspectors would be barred from actually checking military sites in order to see if Iran is cheating on any agreement they pretend to make with the West.

Salami said, "We will respond with hot lead (bullets) to those who speak of it. Iran will not become a paradise for spies. We will not roll out the red carpet for the enemy." He added the foreign inspections of military sites is tantamount to "selling out."

The 'selling out' he speaks of refers to anyone who gets in the way of Iran developing a nuclear bomb. The enemy Salami speaks of is the US and the rest of the none Shi'ite world, but more immediately, he inferred it to be the US, UK, France China, Russia, and Germany.

So Iran doesn't want inspections and also wants the sanctions (that brought them to the table in the first place) to be immediately lifted if they sign the deal. They might just do that (see Taqiyya).

 Obama hopes the deal will be finalized by June 30 because he has an important golf date that day. 

The State Department issued a fact sheet on the framework accord and said that the terrorist nation of Iran would be required to allow the U.N. nuclear agency full access to "suspicious sites." In truth, the suspicious sites include all of Iran. 

But Iran isn't happy with the language of the fact sheet, particularly regarding the fact that sanctions would only be lifted after the IAEA has verified Tehran's compliance. The Supreme Leader wants the sanctions lifted before the ink dries on the agreement, and knowing Obama's skills at negotiating, the Ayatollah will get his way as the golf date looms closer.

But Gen. Salami said on national TV that having foreign inspectors visit a military base is the same as foreign "occupation," and would expose "military and defense secrets."

He is probably correct--the secret would be out that Iran is building nukes by the cartload. 

Catching ladybugs

Temporary so-called "president" Obama suggested that Iran might get significant and immediate economic relief if they would only please, please, please sign the deal. He said that he would even have the inspectors go into the military bases blindfolded and that they would promise not to peek if Iran would also promise not to build a nuclear bomb.

The Ayatollah and Mr. Obama agreed that a "pinky swear" would be sufficient to ensure the safety of the Western world as the cleric muttered a soft "Death to America" under his garlic breath.

Liberals Defined by their Emails

Whether or not the Sony Pictures document dump obtained by WikiLeaks is, as Julian Assange claims, "public domain," the information Assanges' Web site revealed is incredibly illuminating and reveals the true hearts of liberals.

WikiLeaks unveiled the database of over 30 thousand documents and 172 thousand emails the hacker group Anonymous stole from the Sony film division back in last November.

Assanges' actual quote was: "This archive shows the inner workings of an influential multinational corporation. It is newsworthy and at the center of a geopolitical conflict. It belongs in the public domain. WikiLeaks will ensure it stays there."

Some of the information revealed in the WikiLeaks documents was that Sony has close ties to the Democratic party and the company also tried to gather "intelligence" on rival studios including Oliver Stone's soon to be released film on the scumcrumpet, Edward Snowden. (Yes, I know that some of you might see Snowden as a hero, but I see him as a traitor for allowing the information to get into the hands of Putin.)

Amy Pascal, a liberal, and the head of Sony movies left her position with the company after her hacked emails were revealed to the public. She had emailed a friend, Scott Rubin, asking him what questions she should ask President Obama at a breakfast they would be attending for Hollywood brass.

Pascal emailed: "What should I ask the president at this stupid Jeffrey breakfast?" referring to a breakfast hosted by DreamWorks Animation head and important Democratic donor Jeffrey Katzenberg.

Rudin replied: "Would he like to finance some movies."

Pascal, ever the racist, replied: "I doubt it. Should I ask him if he liked DJANGO?" to which Rubin responded: "12 YEARS."

Pascal continued trying to guess the movies a black president might prefer, perhaps those starring black actors: "Or the butler. Or think like a man? [sic]."

Rudin: "Ride-along. I bet he likes Kevin Hart."

Amy Pascal donated $5000 to the Obama re-election campaign and $30,800.00 to the DNC, according to OpenSecrets. So in spite of the fact that she seems focused on race, being a liberal trumps her racial feelings.

Of course, after they were "outed" Rudin wrote to Deadline.com: "Private emails between friends and colleagues written in haste and without much thought or sensitivity, even when the content of them is meant to be in jest, can result in offense where none was intended. I made a series of remarks that were meant to only be funny, but in the cold light of day, they are, in fact, thoughtless and insensitive--but not funny at all. To anybody I've offended, I'm profoundly and deeply sorry, and I regret and apologize for any injury they might have caused."

Scotty, words don't cause injury unless you're a liberal who wants to shut up people with opposing opinions (see American college professors, for more on this). 

Pascal sent her apology to Variety: "The content of my emails were insensitive and inappropriate but are not an accurate reflection of who I am," she lied. "Although this was a private communication that was stolen, I accept full responsibility for what I wrote and apologize to everyone who was offended."

If she was being genuine in her apology, she wouldn't have tried to soften it with mentioning that the emails were stolen. 

It's what people say to their friends when they believe nobody else is able to hear them, that is most revealing about what they really think. 

The same is true of corporations.

Sony Entertainment CEO, Michael Lynton, thought the email issues with WikiLeaks was old history but instead, they drew attention to Lynton's directorship at the Rand Corporation, a US military intelligence think tank. WIkiLeaks then went on to mention a dinner Lynton attended with our so-called president at Martha's Vineyard and that Sony tried to establish a fund-raising collective "to get around the $5,000 limit on corporate campaign donations," the site stated.

But the real FunFact was WikiLeaks revealing that actor, Ben Affleck, the guy who went off on Sam Harris's criticism of Islam on Bill Maher's show, was trying to hide the fact that his ancestors were slave owners and tried to hide the fact by censoring it from the PBS show "Finding Your Roots."

In a hacked email from July 22, 2014 now in the hands of WikiLeaks, the "Finding Your Roots" host, Henry Louis Gates Jr., wrote to Michael Lynton asking him how to go forward with this: "One of our guests has asked us to edit out something about one of his ancestors--the fact that he owned slaves. Now, four or five of our guests this season descend from slave owners, including Ken Burns. We've never had anyone ever try to censor or edit what we found. He's a megastar. What do we do?"

Guess what the sneaky liberal Lynton replied.

His advice was to leave out Affleck's family secret, as long as nobody would find out. He wrote: "On the doc the big question is who knows that the material is in the doc and is being taken out. I would take it out if no one knows, but if it gets out that you are editing the material based on this kind of sensitivity then it gets tricky."

Gates admitted to Lynton that he was aware that censoring the documentary goes against PBS rules. Lynton responded that "It is tricky because it may get out that you made the change and it comes down to editorial integrity," to which Gates then responded "It would embarrass him and compromise our integrity."

What integrity?

Lynton caved and liberal injustice was served.

I marvel at the lies liberals (and some conservatives) will tell in order to appear to be seen in the image they see themselves. I don't care one iota if Affleck's great-grand-whatevers owned slaves, but he is worried that people will see him as less a liberal. 

I do believe, however, that if his ancestors owned slaves, the chances are excellent that they were Dixiecrat/Democrats.

Muslims Murdering Christians Again

 Muslim migrants murdered 12 Christians at sea during a crossing from Libya. An aid group also reported that they feared another 41 were drowned in a separate incident. Under sharia law, that's not a problem if those murdered by Muslims were not Muslims as well, but this matter is being handled by Italian authorities so the barbarism is seen as illegal.

One wonders, however, how most of the mainstream media is going to handle this story.

Fifteen Muslims were detained by Palermo police, suspected perpetrators in this incident. The authorities learned of what was alleged when survivors from Nigeria and Ghana arrived in Palermo on Wednesday and shared the horrifying details with them after being rescued at sea by the good ship Ellensborg.

The 15 Muslims were accused of multiple homicide that was touched off by religious hatred, the police said in a statement.

Islam happens to be a religion of religious hatred of all people who do not follow Islam, and, in fact, Muslims hate other Muslims who don't practice their brand of Islam the same way they do. ISIS is the best example of this, killing other Muslims because they're Shi'ite rather than Sunni, and other Sunnis because they aren't "orthodox" enough to suit them.

The Christian survivors reported that they'd boarded a rubber boat April 14 on the Libyan coast. There were 105 people aboard, migrants who saw the seas being calm and taking their shot at getting out of Dodge.

So the Muslims from the Ivory Coast, Senegal, Mali, and Guinea Bissau, who were leaving their country to escape war and poverty, threatened the migrants from Nigeria and Ghana because they were Christians.  

Crotches were grabbed, threats were made, and finally the folks from the religion of peace threw the Christians overboard. It is very clear that the reasoning for this cruel act was strictly because of religion, and not because the Christians refused to cater a gay wedding.

The police statement said the motive was that the victims "professed the Christian faith while the aggressors were Muslim."

Those Christians who survived the Muslim attack did so because they were able to form a human chain and avoid being tossed overboard.

To date, over 10 thousand people have been taken from jerry-built boats in the Mediterranean and about 400 have drowned off the coast of Libya. Human traffickers are involved and some have been arrested in Italy around the time of this incident.

It remains to be seen how much attention the mainstream media will give to this story. The big names like Fox, CNN, and CBS have covered it, but nothing on MSNBC was found by me. I may have missed it because I don't like to linger on that website--it is said that doing so can cause brain damage.
