The Fallacies of an Incompetent Community Organizer

What if our current plan of involvement with Syria is just Obama's elaborate use of distraction away from other world atrocities, like those of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt who are responsible for destroying over a dozen Coptic churches? What if the White House lied about who was responsible for chemical weapons use in Syria? Kenneth Timmerman, in the Daily Caller, makes a case about the second question in his article entitled: Verify chemical weapons use before sending the dogs of war. He shows how the Obama administration selectively used intelligence information to justify military strikes in Syria that makes what George W. Bush did in 2003 with the start up of the Iraq war look like a Boy Scout assignment.

The Clock is Ticking



It looks as though Obama has no friends who will stand with him in this "truth or dare" Syrian venture. Britain has voted against it in Parliament (something that our president might actually learn from), France is unclear what they're going to do, Germany says "nein," and Obama is hoping the United Nations will agree to his plan to "fire a shot across Assad's bow." That would have the same effect as if Obama flicked Bashar Assad on the chin with his forefinger, if indeed, Assad had an actual chin with which to flick.

Obama at High Noon

America's greatest ally for the last hundred years, the country that stood behind us in Iraq, has just voted in Parliament to let the United States go it alone in Syria. England just finished the vote and they refuse to attack Syria--shot across the bow, or not. 

And if Obama has no intention of changing the regime, what is the point of attacking Syria anyway? As I said in my previous post, it serves no practical purpose and will only speed up Iran's nuclear program.

Seriously Syria

Back in 2007, presidential candidate, Joe Biden, said of then president George W. Bush, that striking back at Iraq unilaterally was a breach of his Constitutional rights and that he would lead the movement to call for impeachment proceedings. The reason he gave was that Iraq was not a threat to the United States and because of this, it would require Congressional approval for military action to be taken against them. On the other hand, Obama appears to be doing exactly the same thing with Syria, but it isn't exactly the same thing--he's a liberal and Biden's boss. The hypocrisy is amazing.

Why I'm No Longer Going to Watch The Five on Fox News

My favorite television program for several years has been The Five on Fox News Network. Nobody in my family will bother me on weekdays at 5:00 pm because they know I'll be glued to my TV. And honestly, I'm not a big TV guy--I generally can do without it, but I enjoy the humor of Greg Gutfeld, the intelligence of Dana Perino (not to say Gutfeld isn't brilliant in his own way), as well as Andrea Tantaros, Kimberley Guilfoyle, and the rest of the regular staff. But I can no longer tolerate Bob Beckel.


Beckel is a foul-mouth liberal whose greatest source of pride seems to me to be the fact that his father marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. fifty years ago. I disagree with most of Beckel's politics, and that's to be expected because he's a liberal, but I will not tolerate him calling white people in Texas, who are in favor of voter ID, "Crackers." He has gone over the line again, and I've decided to use my time more wisely at 5:00 pm.

I am not a person who looks to have people removed from their livelihood. People need to work (except for Obama's Food Stamp Forces) and provide for their family. But I don't have to support them and I refuse to do this in Beckel's case. 

I generally find Fox News to be, as they claim, "fair and balanced." It seems, however, that the fairness they espouse is not reciprocated by most media on the left, and I think it's time conservatives stop accepting this imbalance. I say shut off the microphones on both sides once they've had their time to speak, and allow the other side to respond--that's fair and balanced. 

But Beckel--he needs to be disciplined for his foul mouth. As for me, I'm done with Beckeling.

U.S. at the Ready

We have 4 warships ready to go at Syria and we're one step closer to striking at their government in response to the most recent chemical weapons attack on Syria's civilian population. Vladimir Putinm Russia's version of Obama,  is thumbing his nose and bare chest at our smiling leader, agreeing that chemical weapons were used, but not agreeing with who may have used them. Since Obama ditched plans to discuss options regarding Syria, it has become very clear that our relationship with Russia is similar to a trial separation with a couple who aren't getting along.

Assad Obama Kerry and Iran

The chinless leader of Syria is in big trouble with John Swift-boat Kerry, US Secretary of State. He gave a litany of reasons why we think the Assad regime is using chemical weapons and I am sure that with Kerry's fist-shaking, and Obama's history of fist-shaking, Assad is shaking in his Ferragamo shoes. 

Last week Obama demanded that Syria allow UN inspectors into the area where the alleged chemical attack took place, but the vehicles carrying the inspectors were fired upon and one vehicle was hit by sniper fire. The area where the chemicals were alleged to be used was bombarded with rockets and other ordnance. So the convoy had to return to the hotel and the area where they were headed was destroyed of any useful evidence of a chemical attack. This can only lead us to conclude that Assad is, in fact, killing his citizens with chemicals and does not want us to see the proof.

Hasan, the Verdict is Near

Tomorrow, Monday, is Nidal Hasan's big day. It's sentencing day for the Islamic terrorist, jihadist, Muslim murderer of US Army soldiers and civilians at Fort Hood four years ago. It has taken four years before justice could be served. Yes, the wheels of justice do move ever so slowly. While there will be no actual sentencing on Monday, families and victims who lived through the terror attack will be speaking and trying to convince the jury to give Hasan what he gave 13 victims: death.
