Iran: Muslim climber under house arrest for not wearing a hijab

The Islamic Republic of Iran has ordered climber Elnaz Rekabi, 33, to house arrest for not wearing a head covering known as a hijab. The sentence for such unIslamic defiance could be a long prison sentence or even a death sentence because a woman showing her hair is worse than being Jewish, Christian or Hindu. Well, maybe not worse to Islamists, but you get the picture. 

A woman not wearing a hijab is considered "spreading corruption in the land" (cf. Qur'an 5:33) and that can cost a woman dearly, but the mullahs know that it's a bad look publicly at this time with what they currently have in the country. But if babbling Biden bails Iran out, and mullahs grow confident again, there's no telling what they might do to women who show their hair. 

The Times of Israel first reported "Iranian climber reportedly under house arrest after competing without hijab." 

Rekabi competed in South Korea last week and in order to have a safer, full visual field of view as she climbed, she did not wear a hijab, which is mandatory in Iran. A human rights group called for her to be protected while feminist groups in the United States were silent on the matter ever since Mahsa Amini died in the hands of Iranian moral police. [Now that's an oxymoron if there ever was one.]

Rekabi’s act of what may have been open defiance of what has been described as a lightning-rod event in Iran. Activists say it lends support to the anti-government protests and this cannot bode well for the young woman.

The Iranian rights group HRANA estimated last week that over 12,500 people have been arrested during the protests and  244 killed.

Citing an “informed source,” BBC Persian said Rekabi had been put under pressure to make a “forced confession” after her return Wednesday from the Asian Championships in sports climbing in Seoul.

Rekabi was given a hero's welcome when she returned to Tehran by her supporters. However, she did not return home after touching down at the airport.

“She was held at the national Olympics academy under the watch of plainclothes officers until she met the minister,” a BBC report said, referring to Sports Minister Hamid Sajjadi.

Rekabi had been threatened with the seizure of 100 million rials ($312,000) worth of her family’s property unless she made the “forced confession,” the source was quoted as saying.

If she goes through with the confession, supporters will know that it was forced.

Meanwhile, alleged President Joe Biden has not condemned Rekabi's arrest and continues downing vanilla ice cream cones. And while we don't know who is pulling Biden's strings, we know that Barack Obama and Valerie Jarrett are pro-Iran.

Failed novelist Ben Rhodes defends Iran after attack

Ben Rhodes has an MFA in creative writing from NYU but has failed as a novelist because publishing houses obviously didn't think he had talent. His brother David is a former president of NBC News. Those were all the qualifications former President Barack Obama felt he needed for his National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications [emphasis on felt], a position created for him because of his talent as a failed novelist.

Rhodes tweeted:

Yesterday, massive explosions rocked a Saudi Arabian oil field, shutting down 5% of the world’s production. As my colleague streiff shared earlier today, we didn’t have to wait long to find out who did it. If you had Iran as the aggressor, congrats, although that’s not a difficult guess these days. It appears cruise missiles, possibly fired by Iranian backed militias in Iraq, were used in the attack.

Well well well… pic.twitter.com/bPgY6J67JE

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo confirmed that Iran was the backing for the operation. The cruise missiles belong to them and only their proxies use them.

Pompeo tweeted:

We call on all nations to publicly and unequivocally condemn Iran’s attacks. The United States will work with our partners and allies to ensure that energy markets remain well supplied and Iran is held accountable for its aggression
— Secretary Pompeo (@SecPompeo) September 14, 2019

But Ben Rhodes [I misspelled Butt] knows better than all of us. He is telling us that Sec. Pompeo is wrong and he knows better. [Is it possible he is having an affair with Iranian-born Valerie Jarrett?]

In an incredibly dumb, dishonest and dangerous tweet, Rhodes posted:

The Houthis are not the same as Iran and the Saudis are fighting a war against them in Yemen. This is an incredibly dumb, dishonest and dangerous thing to say. https://t.co/Ij5haLdzQr
— Ben Rhodes (@brhodes) September 14, 2019

The likelihood that Iran isn't involved in the attack and Rhodes is correct has the same probability of finding a Mars chocolate bar on Mars. The Secretary of State is privy to the intelligence that Rhodes is not, therefore Rhodes lacks intelligence in more ways than one.

Suffice it to say, Rhodes invariably tends to side with Iran and the Mullahs and it makes one wonder if there isn't something in it for him. Maybe Jarrett really is influencing him with promises to keep.

Fun Fact: Valerie Jarrett is 5% Native American, which means she is more Native American than Elizabeth "Throwing Bull" Warren.

The fact that the Houthis are controlled by Iran and are financed by them challenges the notion that Ben Rhodes should be taken more seriously than a village idiot.

Several tweets challenge Rhodes' credibility:

Iran-backed Lebanese Hezbollah trains the Houthis. Iran backs the Houthis including by supplying them with advanced weaponry. You can keep pretending the Islamic Republic in Iran is not behind these destructive proxies. But facts are stubborn things. https://t.co/7XnUMtYmjU
— Mark Dubowitz (@mdubowitz) September 14, 2019

Every time Ben Rhodes opens his mouth, I have to remind myself that yes, this man actually served as a Deputy NSA in the Obama White House. https://t.co/5Umi2BPHio
— capitalist ghoul 🦅 (@m0ve_im_gay) September 14, 2019

But the best rebuttal of Rhodes' idiocy came from Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX):

The frightening irony is that when Rhodes was in the Obama administration, none of the media challenged his qualifications. Even with the horrible Arab Spring which set off Middle East fireworks, nothing was said to challenge his ability to be in an important advisory position.

And let's face it, the dude went along with the Iran nuclear deal.

Yet today, the media refuses to call him out for being unqualified to be taken seriously about foreign affairs.

For Obama: One and a wake-up to go

White House -- They're on their way out the door on Friday and it can't be soon enough. There will be a mass exodus now that the so-called president held his last and most non-defensible press conference in his 8 long, long years in office. 

The press will miss him deeply, like a man missing his husband, and they asked him fluff questions, as is their wont with Obama.

Each member of the Obama wrecking crew will get to spend a few magic moments with their lead-from-behind leader. They will talk and reminisce about the old days when the president watched a ball game with his dad, Raul Castro in sunny Cuba.

Everyone will soon be busy packing up, putting into cardboard boxes their leather bound editions of "Rules for Radicals" and "The Koran for Dummies," and some will even have "The Communist Manifesto." 

There will be tears shed. There are always tears shed with leftists because anything can turn on the water spigots: a black man voting Republican; a president who will undo what their lead from behind leader had done with his pen and phone. 

The last days of a president's administration are always bittersweet and sadly nostalgic as the staff  finally realizes how far to the right their lead-from-behind leader has caused the country to swing, and how they will now be out of a cushy job, lose any power they had, and find themselves back to being ordinary civilians.

Many of Obama's staff are scared. Not scared of being out of work, but scared of our next president somehow getting us all mysteriously killed because he refuses to be the kind humanitarian Obama is as he shows whenever he frees an Islamic freedom fighter for ISIS or the Taliban or any Islamic religious organization.

"You're always aware that it's a special privilege to work there and not something to take for granted," Nate Lowentheil said. Nate worked for our lead from behind Obama on the National Economic Council. "It's particularly hard knowing the next wave of people coming are going to be working to reverse the things you were working to advance until your very last hour," he added, sounding as if he was going to die when he walked out the White House door.

But on a positive note, the next wave of people coming are going to be working to do the things the majority of the American electorate wants them to do, and while it includes ending and replacing Obamacare, it does not include letting traitors out of prison because they fit someone's folk hero image.

There were tears on the faces of some White House aides on Tuesday, and one, who will remain unnamed, had an actual snot-bubble popping out of their left nostril as tears flowed like a busted sewer pipe.

After the group photo, Valerie Jarrett was last seen wringing her hands together and then stirring a huge cauldron which emanated an odor reminiscent of eye of newt along and oil of dog.

GOP vows to fight Iran-Boeing deal

This is a big deal--a very big deal. Boeing and one of the biggest state sponsor of terrorism, Iran, are planning a deal. The aircraft giant announced Sunday that it has agreed to sell 80 aircraft of Iran Air and are trying to sell the idea that it's good for American jobs.

Republican lawmakers criticized Boeing, based in Chicago, when the deal was in its infancy in June. Reps. Peter Roskam (R-Ill.) and Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas) sent a letter to Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg, warning that the deal could weaponize Iran.

"The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) systematically uses commercial aircraft to transport troops, weapons, military-related parts, rockets and missiles to hostile actors around the world," the letter stated. " . . . These terrorist groups and rogue regimes have American blood on their hands. Your potential customers do as well."

After the announcement by the aircraft manufacturer, the lawmakers showed no sign of budging, as a senior aide to Roskam told FoxNews.com that he intends to "aggressively fight" the deal in the next Congress, and expressing hope that the political winds would shift in their favor when Trump takes office.

"The incoming appointees at Treasury and State will no longer report to a White House willing to bend over backward and ignore national security concerns to keep Iran from walking away from the nuclear deal," the aide said.

Let's keep our collective fingers crossed that the Ayatollah doesn't throw any compliments at Trump--he's a sucker for a kind word.

Hensarling said the deal is "disappointing to say the least" and blamed Obama. [I blame Valerie Jarrett, an Iranian-born woman of shady background who holds Obama's puppet strings.] 

"The President wants us to sell planes not just to this dangerous regime, but to an airline that his own Treasury Department sanctioned in 2011. President Obama even wants U.S. banks to draw on American citizens' deposits to financy Iran, a regime that Treasury calls 'a jurisdiction of primary money laundering concern,'" Hensarling said. "If a U.S. financial institution attempts to bankroll Iran in the waning days of the Obama administration, it will have to answer to Congress," he warned.

Boeing framed the deal as one that would support American jobs. "Today's agreement will support tens of thousands of U.S. jobs directly associated with production and delivery of the 777-300ERs and nearly 100,000 U.S. jobs in the U.S. aerospace value stream for the full course of deliveries," Boeing said, also noting that it supports 1.5 million American jobs.

Trump, earlier this month, tweeted that he wants to cancel an order with Boeing because the costs for a new Air Force One are "out of control."

The Boeing deal was made possible by the left who removed trade sanctions in January as part of the nuclear deal. Since that time, Iran has been hijacking our sailors, buzzing our naval vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, and basically flipping us off as they laugh at our lack of resolve in a president who is impotent in so many ways. 

A dual citizen, Robin Shahini, 46, was put into prison for 18 years in Iran after a 3-hour trial for the violation of the blasphemy law. 

Why is Boeing dealing with this disgusting nation?

The first planes are set to be delivered to Iran in 2018.

Iran warns of 'firm response' if Obama doesn't stop sanctions renewal

"Stop, in the name of love"

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani tried his best to scare Barack Obama Sunday by demanding the lame duck block an extension of sanctions passed unanimously by the U.S. Congress. Rouhani threatened that if he allowed the sanction extension to go forward, Tehran would "firmly respond." 

In a parliamentary speech, the Iranian president denounced legislation passed by our Congress to extend the Iran Sanctions Act (ISA) for 10 years as a violation (twice) of Tehran's nuclear deal with six major countries. The deal curbs Iran's nuclear program in return for lifting international financial sanctions. 

It is believed that Obama will sign it on Friday, but you can never tell for certain. He has a soft spot for Iran which he gets from his senior adviser and Iran-born Valerie Jarrett.

"America's president is obliged to exercise his authority by preventing its approval and particularly its implementation . . . and if this gross violation is carried out, we will firmly respond," Rouhani said on live television to a cheering viewship chanting: "Death to America! Death to Israel!"

Iran was obliged not to violate the agreement but they did--twice--and they're upset that we're calling them on it? Too bad.

U.S. officials said the ISA renewal wouldn't infringe the nuclear deal and lawmakers say that the extension of the ISA would make it easier to quickly reimpose sanctions if [read 'when'] Iran contravened the deal.

Iran's solution to the ISA renewal was for their 290-seat parliament of assclowns to call for relaunching nuclear enrichment that was halted by the atomic deal, according to their official "news" agency IRNA. 

That should get us to lift sanctions since we imposed them in the first place because of the nuclear enrichment they were doing.

Last month, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that extending the ISA would be viewed by them as a breach of the nuclear accord--and he threatened retaliation.

So, in Khamenei's view, Iran is allowed to violate the agreement and we can do nothing about it. 

Khamenei criticized the nuclear deal blaming Rouhani for the government's failure to improve living standards after the sanctions were released. Perhaps if Tehran wasn't so corrupt, there would be more money available to improve those standards.

I suspect when Trump takes office next month things will be dramatically different between our two nations.

When Democrats are fickle

Oh how fickle when they're in a pickle, those Democrats. 

Now the leftist party is ratcheting up their criticism of FBI Director James Comey for telling the public about his decision to revisit Clinton's email probe. 

But back in July, when Comey went public with the announcement that he didn't have sufficient evidence to merit an indictment of the woman who make all other politicians look like Mother Theresa, he was the darling of the left. If Obama has a love-child with a white woman, he would have looked like James Comey.

During a press conference at his final NATO summit Obama praised Comey for being "exhaustive" during the investigation of the emails. "I think Director Comey could not have been more exhaustive," he said.

Even before the July Comey pronouncement, Obama praised him, calling him a 'rarity' and said Comey didn't care about politics--he was just interested in getting the job done. Of course, Obama has his own problems now that the emails that came out showed that he communicated under an alias with Hillary on her private server. He obviously knew about the server because it wasn't a dot-gov address.

Then there's The Washington Post an uber-liberal rag. The day after Comey announced the fact that he wanted to let Hillary slide on an indictment, they wrote how all the nasty Republicans attacked poor Comey for just "doing his job."

But when the news broke out that Comey was revisiting the case, the same editorial board said that Comey "went too far" by giving Congress a "heads-up" aboutt he investigation, and that the FBI Director 'ruined democracy' for the country by casting a shadow over Queen Hillary.

Then there's the anti-Mother Theresa, Donna Brazile. She originally tweeted praised Comey for doing great work by burying the Clinton investigation, then tried to delete the tweet after Comey changed his mind.

Brazile's emails came under scrutiny when she allegedly gave the Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta, debate questions in advance (which the campaign gladly accepted without question). 

Nancy Pelosi (whose tribal name is "Hands That Speak With Forked Fingers") called Comey a "great man" and said the FBI was lucky to have him. Now, according to Pelosi, he is a weak, spineless coward who let Republicans bully him into flipping on Hillary.

"The public interest would be served by the FBI providing the facts, rather than allowing Republicans to stoke innuendo and falsehoods 11 days away from a presidential election," the leftist hypocrite said.

And the alleged father of Pelosi's homely lovechild, Harry Reid (kidding about the kid) said that nobody can question Comey's "integrity" and "competence" unless he flips, and then Reid can. In an open letter, the man with a woman's voice accused Comey of violating the Hatch Act for not investigating Donald Trump's connections to Vladimir Putin of the real 'Borscht Belt.'

But my personal favorite flipper is Congressman Elijah Cummings. I am about to list his quote with the caveat for anyone whose stomach is currently full, not to read it until you have fully digested your meal as this might cause you to vomit in your mouth.

"I don't know whether your family's watching this, but I hope that they are as proud of you as I am, because you are the epitome of what a public servant is all about . . . Sacrificing over and over and over again, trying to do the right thing, sometimes coming under ridicule, but again, still doing the right thing."

Following Comey's revisit, Cummings accused him of being a puppet for the Republicans. "It doesn't surprise me, in a way, that he did this, because I don't think the American people have a clue as to how hard the Republicans, particularly on my committee, have been on the FBI," he said.

The list goes on, but you can imagine the contrast of their own opinions when the outcome didn't go the way they wanted it to go.

Now Obama's chief adviser, and the real power behind the throne, Valeria Jarrett, is among the leftists who want Comey gone and the country to be run by a felon and female misogynist. 

A source told The New York Post that "Valerie argued that Comey was interfering deliberately in the election process and had to be stopped." But the same source claims that Obama is "worried about the consequences of taking such an action--the tsunami of outrage that would come his way, and possibly become a major footnote, or worse, in the history of the presidency."

The GOP however, is ecstatic over Comey's reversal of direction. House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mike McCaul (R-TX) called Comey a "hero" and said of Jarrett, "I don't think Valerie Jarrett has any credibility here."

Obama plays ostrich with Iran buying nuclear materials

As far as the Obama administration and Valerie Jarrett are concerned, Iran can do no wrong. 

After receiving recent German intelligence indicating that Iran has stepped up efforts to get their slimy hands on nuclear materials (in spite of their promise to discontinue this pursuit as part of the nuclear deal of last summer) Obama is pooh-poohing the report, according to one U.S. official's comments to the Free Beacon.

Germany's internal intelligence agency reported that sources have actually witnessed 'extensive Iranian attempts" to procure illicit materials, "especially goods that can be used in the field of nuclear technology." It goes on to say that Iran is breaching the agreement under the nuclear deal and not respecting the most critical commitments they've made.

What a surprise.

Even illegal immigrant hugger German Chancellor Angela Merkel said this week that the findings shows "Iran continued unabated to develop its rocket programs in conflict with the relevant provisions of the UN Security Council," especially the resolution that bars Iran from pursuing ballistic missile technology.

The report and warnings were met with the same lackadaisical response the Obama administration shows with all things Islamic: a giant yawn.

The administration declined to comment on the intel and told the Free Beacon that it will continue to view Iran as complying with the nuclear accord, a clear example of how Obama puts politics over national security all the time.

"We believe that Iran is continuing to meet its [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] commitments," a State Department official said.

When pressed to explain how this compared with Germany's warnings, the official said the administration "would refer you to German authorities for any comment about reports attributed to them," sounding a lot like Loretta Lynch referring to James Comey.

One CIA official declined to comment on the German intelligence findings and whether they agree with U.S. intelligence assessments.

Many lawmakers view the German intelligence as proof that Iran is in violation of international accords and the Obama administration stands in sharp contrast of that notion. The evidence of Iran's intentions is mounting.

I could go through a whole litany of lawmakers who believe Obama is putting us in a dangerous spot which will culminate in Iran getting a nuclear weapon, but I will spare you. Suffice it to say that the more rope we give Iran, the higher they will go to hang us with it.

There should be no doubts by the American public that Iran's ultimate goal is to develop a nuclear weapon and use it. Doing so will guarantee the coming of the Twelfth Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi.

In order to provide protection for a nation, one must err on the side of caution or risk calamity. Obama is definitely not erring on the side of caution by dismissing Germany's intelligence.

Obama is putting America in a collision course with Iran.

Obama weepy over Iran's behavior

There is only so much advice one should take from another individual whose emotional involvement affects one's decisions. Valeria Jarrett is not the person Obama should be listening to when it comes to trusting the behavior of the Iranian theocracy. According to the blog  Conservative Report, Jarrett was the "brains" behind the Benghazi decisions that saw 4 Americans killed.

So who knows who the decision-maker regarding the Iranian nuclear deal was? Maybe it was Jarrett, maybe it was Obama. Either way, the United States came out of that deal looking like naive rubes. 

"Iran so far has followed the letter of the agreement," Obama whined, "but the spirit of the agreement involves Iran also sending signals to the world's community and businesses that it is not going to be engaging in a range of provocative actions that are going to scare businesses off. When they launch ballistic missiles with slogans calling for the destruction of Israel, that makes businesses nervous." 

Not that calling for the destruction of Israel bothers Obama all that much--it's just bad for business. You know, "First they came for the socialists . . . then they came for . . . " yadda yadda. 

It might scare away the Obama socialists.

It's amazing that Obama didn't think Iran would not abide by the spirit of the agreement. Amazing . . . unless he's as smart as his zombies believe he is and did the deal in spite of the consequences. After all, he lives in a protected environment and can duck radiation with his girls and Valerie by his side.

And perhaps Michelle if she gets off his case now and then.

So now Obama is criticizing Iranian leaders for undermining the "spirit" of last year's historic nuclear agreement, even as they stick to the "letter" of the pact.

After our president virtually bent over backwards for Iran, what do the go and do? Use your imagination.

Obama claimed that Iran's troubles after the sanctions were lifted and we still plan to allow them access to our banking system and Hillary's emails, were due to Iran's support of Hezbollah, ongoing ballistic missile testing, and other aggressive behavior.

Like humiliating our Navy.

But it's only a military organization, to Obama, so what's the big deal again?

"Iran has to understand what every country in the world understands, which is businesses want to go where they feel safe, where they don't see massive controversy, where they can be confident that transactions are going to operate normally. And that's an adjustment that Iran's going to have to make as well."

Obama loves to lecture the world. He's definitely the smartest man who ever lived, or ever will.

Except for any conservative, patriotic American.

Iran kills all the men in a village: it's how Islam rolls

President Obama is doing all that he can to build some sort of legacy in the waning months of hat remains of his failed leadership. Not only is he doing all he can to close Guantanamo Bay Detention Center, he solidified the nuclear deal with Iran and has lifted the sanctions that have kept the terrorist nation from developing nuclear weapons.

Valerie Jarrett, Obama's authoritarian adviser, is from Iran. She even speaks Farci and God only knows what her true religion is (no pun intended). There is no question that Jarrett is deeply involved and committed to our new relationship with this terrorist state.

Iranians still make sport of chanting "Death to America" and "Death to Israel." It's how they roll. In spite of that, we are giving them tons of money that will likely be used to support terrorism.

Iran also rolls in even more horrible ways.

In a quiet little village located in the Sistan and Baluchestan province bordering both Pakistan and Afghanistan, the village men were all accused of drug trafficking, punishable by death in this lovely theocratic nation.

Whether or not the men were put on trial is unknown, but what is known is that they were all executed by the Iranian government, accused of smuggling opium and other narcotics.

Every man in the village was hung. It's doubtful they were actually put on trial, but in Islamic theocracies, the only judge and jury prays five times a day and has his followers kill in the name of Allah.

"The apparent hanging of every man in one Iranian village demonstrates the astonishing scale of Iran's execution spree. These executions--often based on juvenile arrests, torture, and unfair or nonexistent trials--show total contempt for the rule of law, and it is shameful that the UN and its funders are supporting the police forces responsible," said Maya Foa, a spokeswoman for Reprieve, an anti-death penalty group.

The United Nations and its Organization of Islamic Cooperation  basically does nothing to stop these atrocities or even go the first step of saying anything about them because killing drug dealers, even killing gays or Jews, is how Islam rolls.

Since "moderate" President Hassan Rouhani took office, executions have increased dramatically. In fact, Iran has executed 73 children between 2005 and 2015, and the execution rate is slated to rise.

This is the country we made a shaky nuclear deal with and who say their nuclear development is for peaceful purposes. If you understand what Islam means by the notion of 'peace,' you would believe them.

Peace will come when the only people left in the world submit to Allah.

Kerry's verbal calisthenics: takes Iran's side over Congress

Iran keeps doing whatever it wants to do with its missile tests, support of terrorism, and uranium shenanigans. It says whatever it wants to say about death to America and Israel. 

And John-the-Gigolo-Kerry writes to Javad Zarif, Iran's Foreign Minister, suggesting that the Obama administration might be able to forget about the little detail Congress passed on visa restrictions and allow Iran to skate around it. 

"Congress, Schmongress," Kerry might have said. "Who needs 'em?"

After all, how is Valerie Jarrett going to be able to entertain her old friends if they can't come to the US from the country of her youth?

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce (R-Calif.) wasn't too thrilled by Kerry's suggestion. "Instead of bending over backwards to try to placate the Iranian regime, the White House needs to be holding it accountable for its recent missile tests, its continued support of terrorism, and its wrongful imprisonment of Americans," he told FoxNews.com.

I just got a picture of Kerry bending over backwards and it made my eyes throw up.

The United States has finally tightened its security requirements for the visa waiver program. There are 38 countries whose citizens can come to the U.S. without visas, but now if they've traveled to Iran, Iraq, Sudan and Syria within the past five years, they must get a visa to enter the U.S.

It kind of keeps the jihad influx rate lower when we tighten things up like that. It might even prevent acts of terrorism like in San Bernadino from happening. 

But Iranian jihadists complained the changes violate the terms of the nuclear agreement, which says that we and other world powers will refrain from any policy that adversely affects normal trade and economic relations with Iran [until they destroy us, at which point, it won't matter].

Kerry responded to Zarif in  an excessively emetic letter, suggesting that maybe the rules can be overlooked.

I think Lt. Col. Ralph Peters was making reference to more than just one person when he called Obama that feline word suggesting a lack of backbone and strength.

"I am also confident that the recent changes in visa requirements passed in Congress, which the Administration has the authority to waive, will not in any way prevent us from meeting our [nuclear deal] commitments, and that we will implement them so as no to interfere with legitimate business interests of Iran," the pussy Kerry said.

So Kerry was telling Zarif that we will give in to Iran's demands: "To this end, we have a number of potential tools available to us, including multiple ten-year business visas, programs for expediting business visas, and the waiver authority provided under the new legislation," he wrote.

The legislation Kerry was referring to includes a provision that would allow our Homeland Security (which has become an oxymoron under our current administration) to waive the requirements if the secretary deems that this "is in the law enforcement or national security interests of the United States."

On the contrary, the entire purpose for the legislation is for the security of the homeland. Duh.

House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) worried that Kerry was proposing a "blanket" waiver to kiss up to Iran, stating that it isn't Congress' intent "Contrary to what the Secretary of State seems to be saying to Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarid, it was not and has never been Congress' intent to allow the Administration to grant a blanket waiver to travelers from Iran in order to facilitate the implementation of the Iran deal."

"Good job, Barry. Just like I told you to do"

He said the legislation was to bolster security and "keep the American people safe from terrorism and from foreign travelers who potentially pose a threat to our homeland."

If left to their own devices, this Administration would be playing tickle-slap with the Ayatollah and his terrorist crew and the country would pay the price.

But Valerie Jarrett would still be our president.

Citizen cannon fodder

Isn't it ironic that people in Congress are not required to have Obamacare like the rest of us? I don't believe the Obama administration has been fair with the American people.

Now that Obama has obtained the biggest one-time release of federal inmates in the nation's history, isn't it ironic that Congressional staff, the Obama administration, Valerie Jarrett, and the so-called president himself, get Secret Service protection? Yes, it's just as ironic as Diane Feinstein being all in for more and more gun control while she keeps her piece in her purse and also has SS protection.

Since the start of November, 6112 federal inmates are now walking among us because of a decision made by the U.S. Sentencing Commission to reduce sentences for most drug trafficking offenses and apply them retroactively.

Many of these offenders have been incarcerated for years and now that they've been set free, how will they be able to find employment when they have to compete with the illegal aliens who come across our borders like a certain species of rodent leaving a sinking ship?

Where's Waldo

Where is the safety net to help these so-called non-violent offenders make a smooth transition from a life of crafting license plates and shivs to keeping up with the Kardashians? How will these once-upon-a-time miscreants find a decent job?

"On average these criminals have been in federal prison for nine years--you don't have to be a sheriff to realize that a felon, after nine years in jail, isn't going to be adding value to the community. A third are illegals and felons, so they can't work. What do we think they are going to do?" Sheriff Paul Babeu of Pinal County, AZ asked.

The not-so blind Justice Department says that 77% of current inmates are in half-way houses or home confinement.

I already feel better about that. I mean, what are the chances of recidivism?

Fieldgoal?

On the good side, only 1,764 of these drug traffickers are illegal aliens, which makes them illegal alien drug traffickers. These scumcrumpets are slated for deportation, so what are the chances they'll return to traffic more drugs or shoot innocent Americans out for a walk along a boardwalk?

There is no way the United States of America is going to allow them to return here again, knowing what we know about these guys.

Never mind.

The most transparent POTUS ever? Bwahahahahaha

Will jump through hoops for food

The most transparent administration in the history of the U.S.A., led by the most transparent president of the U.S. A., who is in the process of producing his school records, past history of interpersonal relationships and facts about his time at the Indonesian madrassa where he learned the Koran, has refused to tell Congress the number of American troops killed by Iran and its proxies. 

Obama evidently doesn't want to upset anyone now that the Iran nuclear agreement is practically in the bank and we can look forward to not having to cook our marshmallows ourselves. 

Obama has been asked many times by Congress to release the figures detailing the number of US and Israelis, since the 1979 revolution, have been killed by Valerie Jarrett's countrymen.

John "Lurch" Kerry sidestepped the question three times in on-the-record responses Sen. Marco Rubio (R. FL) provided in written form asking him to provide the figures. One of Rubio's questions specifically asked: "How many U.S. citizens have been killed by Iran, including by Iran's terrorist proxies, since 1979?"

Kerry's answer/dodge was that the administration: "The death of any U.S. citizen due to acts of terrorism is a tragedy that we take very seriously. As the President (sic) said in his Aug. 5 speech, a nuclear-armed Iran is a danger to Israel, America and the world." 

When Rubio asked Lurch a second time: "How many U.S. troops and soldiers were killed by Iranian-provided weapons or by Iranian-backed militias in Iraq and Afghanistan," Kerry dodged again.

In a response having nothing to do with what Rubio asked him, Kerry said: "We are extraordinarily grateful for the service of the men and women of the United States Armed Forces, and we mourn the loss of every service member."

WTF???

If you asked Kerry about his role in the Communist Museum of Vietnam, I believe he might answer with: "For centuries, Asians people have made incredible contributions to the world."

What a schmuck.

He even sidestepped the question asking him to detail "how many Israelis have been killed by Iran, including by Iran's terrorist proxies since 1979."

His moronic answer was: "The central goal of the JCPOA [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] cannot erase decades of Iranian anti-American and anti-Israel rhetoric and actions."

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R. TX) told the Free Beacon that the Obama administration's refusal to provide answers about Iran's efforts to kill Americans is "unconscionable."

Valeria Jarrett was not available for comment. Some say she was visiting friends in the Middle East.

John bin Brennan on Iran

CIA Director John Brennan spoke with Fox News Sunday's Chris Wallace. He discussed the Iran nuclear talks and said that we will "continue to keep pressure" on Iran and learn from past mistakes. He agreed that Iran is "still a state sponsor of terrorism."

Brennan thinks Tehran is aware of the "consequences and implications" that would occur if they don't comply with the deal. But, since Brennan may have converted to Islam, he should be aware of the term "kitman" (in Arabic, "taqiyya"). The Iranians will use kitman when they think it will help their cause. And they are masters at hedging their bets.

The fact that during the Ayatollah's speech the crowd chanted "Death to America," and Khomeini didn't scold them for being impolite, should tell us something about Iran. But hey, it's no big deal--they chant it every morning to start their day.

Brennan droned on, telling Wallace, "President Obama has made it very clear that we are going to prevent Iran  from having that type of nuclear weapon that they--they were going on the track to obtain. So if they decide to go down that route, they know that they will do so at their peril."

The 17 Iranians who own televisions in Iran got a good laugh at that one.

Brennan added that the U.S. has learned from its past mistakes with Iran (but failed to mention Valeria Jarrett's role in running Obama).

Obama: "I Read it in the Daily News"

Is it possible that the leader of the most powerful nation in the world is getting his information about political events from the mainstream media? This is not the first time Barack Obama has made that claim.

Now Mr. Obama claims that he first learned about Hillary Clinton's exclusive use of private email accounts from news reports. But the StateHouse Department and the White House reportedly knew of this fact as early as last August.

Our so-called president told CBS' Bill Plante that he learned of the Hillary arrogant or bird-brained screw up "The same time everybody else learned it, through news reports." 

See, he's just like you and me except he's the president of the USA and is the most transparent president ever to hold that office. He also has a bridge in Brooklyn that he'd like to sell you.

Never one to let the opportunity for a good joke to pass him by, the president told Plante that "the policy of my administration is to encourage transparency . . . and that's why my emails--the BlackBerry that I carry around--all those records are available and archived and I'm glad that Hillary has instructed that those emails that had to do with official business need to be disclosed." 

Then BlackBerry almost went bankrupt.

Obama said this when Politico.com reported that Clinton's staff had made the decision to keep the news of the emails quiet when the White House, State Department as well as Clinton's office found out that House Republicans already knew about the covert, private email account in which she conducted all of her government business.

The White House shucked and dived to attempt a response to the report. Josh-Notso-Earnest admitted that a few government officials realized Hillary was Yahooing rather than dotgoving, but failed to say when they first noticed it. 

" Notso" covered for Barack Obama by planting the seed that he wouldn't be surprised if Obama learned about it from "newspapers."

Perhaps, like he does with the nation, his staff keeps him in the dark about everything he needs to know. 

Valerie Jarrett told Bloomberg News that she never ever ever received an email from Hillary's private email account, and is clueless if anyone else did.

If Obama, Earnest, Jarret and the rest of the administration are to be believed, then no emails were ever sent from Hillary's private email address, and all of the fuss makes no difference anyway.

Obama's Motto: "Never let a beheading mess up your game"

I'm not sure if the president is naive, stupid or just plain arrogant, but after his brief press conference regarding the beheading of photojournalist James Foley, he went back to Martha's Vineyard to play more golf with Glenn Hutchins, and Valerie Jarrett's cousin, Cyrus Walker.

While his speech was appropriately sombre, he nearly wet himself laughing with his buddies at the Vineyard Golf Club.

The Obama administration were notified about the email sent to the Foley family last week that warned "they would execute Jim" but apparently nothing was effective in stopping the butchery. The email, they said, was full of rage over the bombings of the ISIS locations, so at least we know the Obama administration is actually doing something right.

WCVB-TV stated the Obama administration did not engage in negotiations for Foley's release, and it appears that the photojournalist was badly beaten by the Islamic scumbags because he tried to escape.

Obama said that the US will not back down from ISIS, which may, this time, be true, but one never knows for certain when Obama says something as it often seems the converse is true. "No just God would stand for what they did yesterday," Obama said, "and for what they do every single day." (One can only imagine how Obama knows what an Islamic terrorist group does every single day.)

"ISIL speaks for no religion," he lied, directing his words at ISIS who is busy at work establishing a caliphate in Syria and Iraq, just like the directions say to do in Islamic scripture (a term I use lightly when referring to this "religion of peace"). "Their victims are overwhelmingly Muslim," he said, referring to the centuries of war between the Shi'ites and Sunnis, "and no faith teaches people to massacre innocents."  Obama is correct. Islam does not teach its followers to behead innocents, only those who are not innocent, which includes non-believers, gays, apostates, and women who enjoy the joy of sex. Mohammed himself was responsible for the beheading of anywhere from 600 to 900 Jews of the Qurayish tribe.

The Koran is full of suras that call for the slaughter of non-believers. Who is Obama kidding? At least he admitted that ISIS has tortured and killed ethnic and religious minorities, including women and children, and making sex slaves out of the ones they let live. It' okay though, it's in the Koran.

"There has to be a common effort to expel this cancer so it does not spread," the Community Organizer in Chief said of ISIS. What he meant by 'common effort' is anybody's guess, but you don't "expel cancer," you freaking destroy it. ISIS needs to be eliminated completely.

Then he left, played a round of golf, in a good mood, laughing with Alonzo Mourning (who was definitely not in mourning) and the president didn't allow a beheading to diminish his mood or his game.

I don't know what he shot, but it will never be par and will never be a terrorist.

My Brother's Spelling Bee Keeper"

My Brother's Keeper, Obama's distraction from the economy, scandals, and Obamacare, is getting a $200 million commitment from nine foundations. It's a program designed to help young men and boys of color by keeping them in school, and eventually have them train for good jobs. This is Obama using his pen and his phone to help his "brothers," but not his real brother; however, that's another story.

Obama Draws Line in Sand Using His Etch-a-Sketch Tactic

Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) wants President Obama to send a clear message to President Putin to keep away from the Ukraine's political crisis. This time, if Obama draws a line, he should not draw one that disappears when your hand shakes.
