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."

Breaking: Video Shows Kenji Goyo Beheaded by ISIS

It appears from an online video that Jihadi John, of the Islamic State, has beheaded the Japanese journalist, Kenji Goto.

The video was released late Saturday and shows an orthodox Muslim man with a British accent beheading the non-Muslim, ergo infidel, but its authenticity could not yet be confirmed by the Associated  Press.

Japan's deputy foreign minister, Yasuhide Nakayama told the press yesterday that Japan's efforts to free the hostage were "in a state of deadlock."

Fox News National Security Analyst, KT McFarland spoke about the failed trading of the hostages for Sajida al-Rishawi, a terrorist imprisoned in Jordan for her role in the murder of 60 Jordanians in 2005. "You can't trade, you can't negotiate with terrorists, you can't pay ransom for hostages," said McFarland. "This is the new normal in the region and they have now got the momentum."

Kenji Goto

She said that we know there are more hostages being held by ISIS, including an American woman, and that ISIS is going to try making deals, but she believes that we need to "switch the momentum, seize the momentum and what we in the West must say, the Americans, the British, the Japanese, anybody else who has hostages who have been beheaded or who are still being held, we should say 'no more ransom; no more negotiations; no more terrorist swaps for hostages. Here's the new deal: we are going to put money into a pool, we're going to raise $200 million and we're going to use that money as a bounty on your heads.'" 

I think she has a good idea here. Nothing is going to stop them, and no Muslim is going to come forward unless there's enough money involved to make it worth their while.

And while we're at it, can we not do any further deals with Taliban terrorists and American traitors?

Deal of a Life

Not even her hairdresser knows

Jordan has finally agreed to release "the sister of the Caliphate," Sajida al-Rishawi, a one-time Islamic beauty queen, whose explosive vest failed to go off and kill innocent civilians in a Jordan hotel back in 2005. She wants a "do-over," I suspect. 

By releasing the fetching hijab-covered Sajida, ISIS said it would release the Jordanian pilot held hostage, but left Japan in the dark about their journalist who they planned to behead as they did with the other Japanese man who was killed.

By dealing with the enemy of human life, the door has been left open over the issue of negotiating with puss-bags. When asked about Jordan's position, Jen Psaki, State Department spokes liberal said that every country "has the ability and right to make decisions.," but added, "we don't make concessions to terrorists."

Unless it's to trade five Islamic terrorists for a deserter and traitor. But it must not be important since she wasn't pinned down with a question about that deal.

Eric Schultz (no relation to Ed Schultz, who isn't human to begin with) said that U.S. policy insists "we don't pay ransom, we don't give concessions to terrorist organizations," tried to distinguish the current proposed trade with the terrorist scumbag-traitor trade (i.e., 5 Taliban for 1 Bergdahl) by claiming it was part of an "end of conflict interaction." He then threw more bull excrement claiming the Taliban are an "armed insurgency," while ISIS is a "terrorist group."

Honestly, how stupid does this administration think the American people are? I thought after the Gruber nailing they would have learned their lesson, not to insult our intelligence. But then again, they did fool the left into thinking Obama can walk on water. It was easy to do because Obama believes it himself.

Sajida exposes herself

To say the Taliban is not a terrorist group is an insult to terrorist groups. When you shoot a woman in the back of the head for showing her wrist, what would you call them, a disciplinary team?

I think the trade Jordan plans to make is actually a good one. Surprise! I believe so because the pilot, Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh, is a valuable asset with all the training he has received. That is not to minimize the propaganda value of the hottie who wasn't hot enough to go off. She may go off in the future, which would be a tragedy. Hopefully, she will go off prematurely and kill a few comrades along the way. (Does she get 72 virgin dudes when she goes?)

We don't know what Kenji Goto the Japanese journalist's fate is going to be. I don't think my making a prediction matters one iota, but I can only hope they make him part of the deal. 

I don't know how much Jordan cares if they deal for the journalist or not. After all, he is an infidel.

Sony, Obama, Castro and Hawaii.

President Obama held his year-end news conference today just before going on a well-deserved vacation in Hawaii on our well-deserved taxes. Okay, so maybe his vacation is yet another vacation by a man who seems to enjoy golf and vacationing than actual work, but our tax dollars are well-deserved and I wish we could keep more of them.

The main issues he addressed were the Sony cyber attack by North Korea (or at least that's who they say is responsible), and the kissing up to Cuba's dictators, Raul and Fidel Castro after 50 years of sanctions.

Obama said he believes Sony "made a mistake" by not releasing "The Interview," a satire about the chubby dictator of North Korea, Kim Jung Un. Our divisive president vowed that the U.S. "will respond," but didn't say just how we will. If I were Kim, I wouldn't be too scared--Obama tends to speak lots of empty words, but does so very nicely. According to Harry Reid, he doesn't even have a Negro accent.

The FBI formally blamed Kim and his regime for the cyber-attack, which Obama mentioned via TelePrompTer. "We will respond," he vowed, and short of shaking a fist, nothing more was outlined. It is highly likely that Mr. Obama will first consult the polls before making any unilateral decision, unlike Kim Jung Un, who has no polls to consult, and all decisions are unilateral and final.

Barack mocked the regime for launching an "all-out assault" over a flick that was simply a satire, but he also went after Sony for being a bunch of pussies. He said that Sony should have spoken to him first, before making any decisions, but it would have been entirely possible for Obama to have called Sony if they didn't make the call to him.

In a patriotic and moving statement that brought many Americans to tears, Obama said: "We cannot have a society in which some dictator some place can start imposing censorship here in the United States." 

He did not add, but should have added: "If any censorship is going to be imposed in the United States of America, it's going to be imposed by me and it's going to be imposed over Islam and the Prophet, peace be upon him. Nobody screws with my prophet, peas be up in him."

In a moment of uncharacteristic liberal logic Obama explained that if someone can "intimidate" a company from releasing a satirical movie, "imagine what they start doing when they see a documentary that they don't like or news reports that they don't like." He was, of course, referring to Fox News, which he doesn't like either.

The so-called president said, in typical liberal logic that we will respond "proportionally" in a "place and  time and manner" of their choosing. When any man hears someone say in a fight, that he will respond "proportionally," any man knows the words are being spoken by someone who had never really been in a fight. You don't respond "proportionally," you respond with shock and awe and beat the holy crap out of your attacker so the message is clear and the behavior will cease immediately. Proportionally is for ideologues who believe everything in creation must be handed out equally--oh wait--we also call them Communists.

On the "hug a dictator front," Obama has made his lifetime dream come true: he is courting the Castros.  He will "normalize relations" with Cuba in spite of their killing Americans as recently as 1996. To show his good faith to Fidel and Raul, Obama is releasing three spies, one of whom is a killer. Hey, it's a better deal than we had with Bowe Bergdahl where we released five known jihadist murderers for a traitorous scumbag whose court results are still being kept secret from the public who paid for his defense.

Cuban-American lawmakers of both parties are angry at Obama over this decision. But Obama said that he had no illusions about the Castro regime. "This is still a regime that represses its people," he said, but failed to add, "which, all things being equal, I would do to these dumb voters in all 57 states. They need to be guided by me, someone smarter."

Obama is a lame duck but his dreams of dancing with Communism are coming true. His entire family was Communist and I suspect it had an effect on the way he sees things. 


Make no mistake; if he could finagle a third, fourth and tenth term in office, he would.

"Aloha, suckers."

Thank a Vet, Tweak a Liberal

I hope everyone has a good Veteran's Day today.  Well, except perhaps not so much for Bowe Bergdahl and "Chelsea" Manning. I hear that Chelsea is putting in for a Lipstick Request because "she" doesn't want to have to pay for it "herself" out of the money "she" earns making Diplomat license plates and would rather have we taxpayers foot the bill. At least we don't have to pay for "her" birth control, so tough bullets to you, Sandra Fluke (pronounced 'Fluck').

Remember, Chelsea, being gay doesn't excuse treason. They should have hung you for that.

I listened to a little of Joe-the-Village-Idiot-Biden's speech today. Some of it was lost due to technical difficulties but I believe I was able to get the gist of it: "Will the banner yet wave?" hither and thither and yon.

But you have to give Joe credit for belting out the words .  .  .  over and over. He actually sounds patriotic and perhaps he is. Like Obama, Biden wants what he thinks is best for the country. It doesn't matter that what he and Obama really want is a form of socialism that has proven time and again to not work, it only matters that he has good intentions.

Good intentions get pretty worn out and old when the people with those good intentions have absolutely no clue of the reality those good intentions would bring about. Look at Communism and the hundred million deaths it has been responsible for over time.

And if Karl Marx is your role model, please take a bath and use soap in spite of who you look up to. Oh, and feed your own children--it's your responsibility, not "the collective."

Every year we honor veterans. For those on the left, it's an act. They have cut military spending to a dangerous level. They send a minimum of ground forces into war zones to ensure our military impotence; they make disrespectful remarks that are carried on websites like Salon and Huffington Post.

If those on the left like socialism so much, how come they never move to socialist countries? 

Obama is in China and in China they are mocking him. In Russia, Putin laughs at him and does what he wants to do in Ukraine and Crimea. I wonder what's next for Vlady.

So please, in spite of my dour words, have a good, no a great Veteran's Day and be sure to thank a vet if you see one.

Golf Before Honor: POTUS Putts

President Obama inserted his opinion about a shooting in Florida where a "white Hispanic" man named George Zimmerman, shot a young black man by the name of Trayvon Martin. If Obama had a son, he would look like Trayvon, he said. This was a "white-Hispanic-on-black shooting.

Now Mr. Obama gets involved in a shooting in Ferguson, MO. where a white cop shot a black man. In fact, the Reviled Al Sharpton, that race-baiting bag of sparrow farts, was at the town of Ferguson in order to stir up racial tensions. The Rev. knows how to stir up racial tension even when the person he's doing it for is a liar (see Brawley, Tawana). But Obama got involved because it was a "white-on-black" shooting, just like Sharptongue.

When it comes to the military, our POTUS always seems to take the wrong side of any situation. 

Bowe Bergdahl deserted his post and was taken captive by the Taliban. Bergdahl wrote home about how much he hated the USA, and somehow the enemy got better at killing Americans with Bergdahl in their camp.

In a post written by Jon Williams on June 4, 2014, he gives his thoughts about Bergdahl. The post is entitled: "I WAS THERE: My perspective on Bowe Bergdahl" (and the post can be found at: http://www.iamatexan.com/).

Williams, an Army veteran, worked as a contractor to the 25th Infantry Division, (the same Division as Bergdahl).

He writes: "A few days ago, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel took the stage at Bagram Air Field in Afghanistan and excitedly started with what he thought would be a big applause line. "We got him back!" he exclaimed.

"Silence.

"Not. Even. One. Clap."

Williams writes that numerous White House leaks revealed that Obama and his administration thought Americans would be elated by the news and would be a great moment in Obama's second term. Williams writes that the Obama team is clueless about the military because soldiers don't see a deserter as a "brother in arms."

Maj. Gen. Harold Greene

"When a soldier deserts his post, when he writes that he is ashamed to be an American, when he gives the enemy secrets (and he did), he is no longer "one of us." He is a traitor. He is not a brother-in-arms," Williams writes, and goes on to explain how Bergdahl is lower than whale excrement, which is at the bottom of the ocean. (He didn't actually say it those words, so I improvised.)

But, as you know, Obama met with the parents of Bowe Bergdahl. It looked like an Occupy White House meeting as the traitor's father, Robert, dressed like a slob, wore a nerd-nob ponytail hairdo, and spoke Arabic to his traitorous kid as Obama hugged his wife, Jani who left her Che tee-shirt at home for the occasion. They did not, however, take a selfie, nor, do I suspect, a shower.

Meanwhile, Major General Harold Green was laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery. He was killed by a devout Muslim and is the highest ranking American serviceman to be killed in the Afghan war.

Crickets in the White House. 

People wondered why the Commander-in-Chief didn't attend the funeral of such a high ranking officer while he made the time to fuss over a traitor whose spelling would make a 5th grader cringe.


Journalist Byron York confirmed that Mr. Obama was busy golfing at the Vineyard Golf Club at the time of the funeral. He made an A-hole in one.

Two things for certain, President Obama sucks at golf but sucks even more as a Commander-in-Chief. It is unacceptable and outrageous that he snubbed the General's funeral. Maybe he didn't know about the murder of the General because he didn't watch the story on the news like the rest of us folks.

Coincidences and Coverups

Ahmed Abu Khatalla is captured after 2 years since his involvement with the Benghazi 911 attack that killed our ambassador and 3 Americans. Hillary Clinton gets interviewed by Fox News Network practically at the same time we learn of this. Coincidence?

The IRS loses 2 years of emails that would have clarified the involvement of Lois Lerner and perhaps Barack Obama in the scandal that targeted conservative groups, keeping them from obtaining their tax exempt status. Then 6 more IRS officials had "the dog eat their emails."  Another coincidence?

Obama trades 5 Taliban terrorists for a lowly Army deserter. This happens at the same time when he is planning to close the Guantanamo Bay Detention Facility. Now there's talk of him releasing scores more of these dangerous thugs. Yet another coincidence?

We had the Fast and Furious scandal, Benghazi, Bergdahl, Solyndra, the IRS, AP, NSA, James Rosen, and the New Black Panthers voting suppression scandal, lest we forget. One administration, so many "phony scandals." 

We have to ask ourselves the question: what are the chances we will ever get the hard evidence, the communications, emails and the like, about these scandals? Probably about as much chance as catching Jay Carney being totally truthful about Obama.

According to the Associated Press, the Obama administration last year cited "national security" 8,496 times to withhold information requested under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This is a 57% increase from the previous year. In fact, 36% of FOIA requests made in 2013 were either censored or denied, and in 196,034 other occasions, the "dog ate the homework" excuse was used--that is, they simply could not find the records requested.

So "the most transparent administration ever" is exactly the opposite of that claim. It should give you pause to wonder what other lies have they told, and what are they not telling us.

Lies, Big Lies, and Damn Lies

If some day in the future, they make a commemorative stamp of Barack Obama, I imagine that it won't stick to the envelope. Why should the stamp stick to what it's supposed to stick to when Obama doesn't stick to almost every story he tries to pass off to the American people? 

Obama lies like a trailer park lizard in an 18 wheeler on pay day.

The release of the Taliban Five from Gitmo was done because Bergdahl needed immediate medical treatment--that's what Obama said. But when Bergdahl looked healthy in the video showing his release, the story changed to: "We had to make the trade in secret because the Tahleeebahn (as Obama pronounces it) said they would kill him if the news of the trade went public."

That makes no sense.

First of all, they had five years to cut his freaking head off but they didn't. He spent much of his time playing soccer with the boys and shooting clay soldiers (or whatever) with them. He laughed and said "Salaam" a lot. He seemed to be blending in with them and even grew a manly Taliban beard, a la Mohammed, peas be up in him.

Secondly, congress is not the public. When Obama got Osama the congress got the info about the plan months beforehand and were able to keep it from the public. Nothing has changed in terms of the congressional leadership of the security panel. There was no reason to believe they couldn't be trusted, and even Diane Feinstein is angry at the man whose baby she would have carried.

Thirdly, Burqa-dahl was not a person who served with honor and distinction because he put a uniform on voluntarily. So did Benedict Arnold and Chelsea Manning (the once upon a time guy who we paid  to have his nuts chopped off and then fold away his penis to make him feel as if he were not a man). Come to think of it, since Manning is gay, he's a hero in Obama's mind--not the soldiers he betrayed.

The savages Obama allowed to walk out of Gitmo have no business sucking earth's air, let alone be allowed to rejoin their terrorist scumbags. I believe they will go back out and kill again, if not with their own hands, then through the orders and plans they execute to kill our men.

But the one thing that makes no sense is the fact that Bergdahl is a peon, a snuffy, a worthless asset to the Taliban, especially when compared to the Taliban Five, better known as "The Gang That Couldn't Behead Cleanly." Bergdahl's only value was that a United States president was willing to give the enemy back their leaders for a deserter. Go figure, they must've thought.

To forgo getting the deal done because Obama told the media (even though the AP already knew about the deal because it was leaked to them by the Taliban) would be crazy. And going public is exactly what terrorists want us to do--it's a recruiting tool. 

Just how stupid does Obama think we are?

But that's his story, and he's sticking to it, unlike the stamp.

The Taliban "Conversates" with Obama

The 5 high-level Taliban (equivalent to five 4-star generals) that we traded for a deserter who professed contempt for the United States, are not allowed to engage in militant behavior nor are they permitted to raise money for the cause of jihad. These terrorists have all given their solemn "pinky swear" to the Obama administration, and Susan Rice has vouched for them.

Interestingly, Bowe Bergdahl is still in the German hospital but doesn't appear all that sick. If one didn't know better, one might believe the Obama Spin Team is coaching Bowe to help an Obama turd look like gold.

No war veteran believes that what Bergdahl did was like cutting Anarchy One class at UCLA. He deserted his unit and the punishment for that can be the death penalty. The chances of that actually being meted out is as likely as Obama bench-pressing 200 pounds.

The first thing the Spin Team told us was that Bergdahl was in poor health and needed to be freed as soon as possible to protect his life. This appears to be as true as a Jay  Carney response about Benghazi.

Now they're telling us that the reason Congress wasn't notified of the release, as is required constitutionally, is because the Taliban threatened to kill Bergdahl if the swap was made public. I can imagine how the Taliban side of the conversation went:

"Barack, this is Mohammad bin Mohammed from the Taliban. Yeah, I'm good, thanks. How 'bout you? Great. Enough of the small talk; let me get right to the point.

"This Bergdahl guy, you know, the guy who walked into our camp shouting, 'Anyone got a Qu'ran?' Yeah, him--he's still in our custody but we're willing to trade him for our 'Fab Five Taliban Jihadist Dream Team guys.' But listen, Hussein, may I call you Hussein . . . excellent . . . okay, listen up.

"We don't want you or your people going public on the trade. We'll give him back to you for our guys but it's gotta be done on the down-low, if you know what I'm saying. We don't want to look like we're being greedy by trading our guys for your, how should I say this delicately, loser, so you don't say squat to anyone or Bergdahl dies. You got it? Yeah--if it goes public, we kill him and you get to keep our Dream Team.

"By the way, Bergdahl's not a Jewish name, is it? That would change my whole calculus, if you know what I mean."

If you actually believe that the Taliban didn't want the public knowing about their fantastic deal, you have to be crazy.
