Remembering What It's All About

It's Memorial Day and president Obama is in Afghanistan, risking his life and limb to bring cheer and change the troops can believe in. Meanwhile, Sergeant Tahmooressi remains in a Mexican prison for making a wrong guess as he tried to return to San Diego and ended up in Mexico.

We cannot expect Obama to be everywhere and do everything to right a wrong, but Secretary of State, John-Swift boat-Kerry was in Mexico and did nothing to free the marine. And, unlike Obama, Kerry served in the Navy where he gave himself a medal for alleged bravery. He later appeared with Hanoi Jane (Fonda) at anti-war rallies to protest the Vietnam war.  After the war, he attended a dedication ceremony for the Communist Museum of Vietnam. This should say it all about Kerry, the phony asshat who said back in 2006 to college students, that you should work hard or find yourself stuck in Iraq. Lucky for him he only got "stuck" in Vietnam a few months. Lucky for him that he married fabulously wealthy women.

Former Florida congressman, Allen West, referred to Obama and Kerry as "these very neutered, pajama boy leaders, these faux leaders in Obama and in Kerry," and described the situation as "very embarrassing."  West believes the Mexican government is simply trying to make money over this incident.

But Obama joked with the troops in Afghanistan, saying he was "in the area," and thought he'd drop by. Ha ha. 

The VA scandal, (phony scandal for you liberals) is another sore point on this holiday. American Legion Director of Veteran Affairs and Rehabilitation, Verna Jones, told CBSDC that veterans are hurt by th4e scandal and added "The VA scandal is leaving a black eye every day for  veterans." Liberals called her a racist for using the term 'black eye.'

"Veterans deserve more than the VA is giving. Veterans are losing faith in the system," she said.

Now even the liberal Boston Globe and LA Times are calling Obama incompetent. How competent are they for taking 5 years to figure this out? For a president to say he gets his information from the media and appoints people like Eric Shinseki to head the VA when Obama knew about the problems when he came into office, is unconscionable. 

A leader needs to appoint people who know what they're doing and do it effectively--not a Kathleen Sebelius; not an Eric Shinseki; not even a Hillary Clinton. 

Obama may be a good campaigner and a good politician, but he sucks at management. He hires incompetents, and refuses to fire them when they screw up. That makes him an incompetent.

But let's not forget about Benghazi. When a US ambassador was attacked and 2 former Navy SEALs went to save him, nobody was sent to assist in the fight. They lied, then they made excuses that they couldn't get there in time. How did they know how long the battle would last?

And when the Secretary of Defense, Leon Pinetta, said that the US doesn't send the military into battle without knowing the situation better, what the hell does he think the military does? He may not go out without his umbrella when it rains, but American troops run to the sound of thunder.

Have a good Memorial Day. Think of the fallen and thank them for their sacrifice.

Obama's "Look! Squirrel" Strategy

It should have occurred to you by now that Obama and his team of crafty incompetents have been playing a game of "Mental Three Card Monty" on the American people. There is a strategy they are using and it seems to be working.

When a scandal breaks, and this only seems to happen once a week or more, the first thing they do is to tell the public that this is the first they heard of it. Good thing Obama was watching MSNBC at the time or, wait, not MSNBC, let's say Fox News, when they heard about Fast and Furious, or the IRS, or the Associated Press, or Benghazi, or Veterans Administration scandals. Had he not seen it on the tube, he would have been in the dark just like MSNBC.

Next, Obama and his peons tell the public that he/they are as outraged as they are and come hell or high water, they are going to get to the bottom of this doggone thing.

Then they wait long enough for another crisis to come along that gets the public's attention. I call this the "Look, Squirrel" strategy.

Now they tell the public that they've looked into the first scandal and found this to be a phony one. Nothing to see here, folks.

But if that doesn't work, they dismiss the scandal by saying crap like, "Dude, that was two years ago."

Hopefully, you will not fall for Obama's strategies; most conservatives don't.
Most of us see how nothing Obama was outraged over was fixed. Nobody was really brought to justice, and nobody was held accountable.

Dr. Shahil Afridi, who is still in prison for helping us get Osama bin Laden was not helped by us after all he had done for our country. He is still in a Pakistani prison.

Eric Shinseki is still the Veteran Affairs Secretary in spite of the extraordinarily gross mismanagement of the agency--even with Obama's full knowledge since 2008--and even with all the outrage Obama "mustered."

Saeed Abedini is still in an Iranian prison for the crime of being a Christian in Iran. He is an American and has been tortured extensively to the point where he was recently hospitalized for two months and the bastards even tortured him in the hospital. Obama is outraged, but Abedini hasn't felt any less pain by all Obama has done for him. Nothing. Just outrage.

The IRS scandal outraged Obama until it no longer did. Lois Lerner is still walking free amongst us--her head held high; her bouffant proudly blowin in the wind. She pleads the Fifth Amendment and so far, she and Eric Holder have not been made to atone for their contempt of congress.

We have veterans dead because they couldn't get admitted to a VA hospital (now 26 are involved in the scandal at this time), but we have Bradley Manning, a convicted traitor, who demands a sex change operation from the same hospital system that allows our veterans to die, and it looks like he may get his way.

 What used to be called "Aiding and Abetting the Enemy" is now called "Foreign Aid." 

What's wrong with this picture?
