Protecting Black Panthers

Here's a disturbing editorial from the Washington Times about how Obama's Justice Department dropped what was basically a cut and dried case of voter intimidation in Philadelphia by some New Black Panthers during the last Presidential election. In case you don't remember the incident, here's the video.

This action by the Justice Department, if you can call it that, hasn't been covered by the MSM, they too are sweeping it under the rug. Yet if it had been voter intimidation against a minority it would have been plastered over all the news.

Are you like me and getting really fed up with the lack of concern by the MSM and others about the many cases of reverse discrimination we're seeing? Discrimination is discrimination, no matter which direction it goes and should not be tolerated. Yet there's obviously a lack of concern unless the discrimination is toward a minority.

Political Correctness - The Real Definition

"Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Cheney Answers Obama's Claims

Former Vice President Dick Cheney delivered an impassioned speech today at the American Enterprise Institute regarding the actions taken against terrorists by the last administration.

It's a must-read for anyone interested in the truth. For all the Cheney-bashing that we heard for 8 years, I for one am grateful that we had him fighting the War on Terror. I admired him as Sec. of Defense during the first Gulf War and my admiration and appreciation for him has only grown.

The actions taken by him and President Bush kept us safe for 7 1/2 years. I'm afraid it's a record that won't be surpassed by this administration.

It Just Keeps Getting Worse!

Here's an eye-opener - "federal income taxes for every taxpayer would have to rise by roughly 81% to pay all of the benefits promised by these programs under current law over and above the payroll tax."

This is from a very sobering article by Bruce Bartlett, a former Treasury Dept economist. We've all been hearing it, that the Social Security and Medicare obligations are more than we can ever fund. That the politicians just keep giving more and more away to buy votes. We'll, the irresponsible spending is coming home to roost and it's just around the corner

Pelosi and the CIA

Deer in the Headlights

Pelosi is digging herself a nice little hole. One that she'll try to lie herself out of, like she and most of the politicians do. But this one may be a little harder for her to manage.

The CIA doesn't like getting placed in the middle of a political battle, nor does it like being accused of misleading Congress. Yet that's what Pelosi has done today. I know that head of the CIA is a recent Obama appointee and he'll try to protect Pelosi, but the folks at CIA won't let him throw them to the wolves.

So I expect this to be an interesting battle, one the MSM will love, even if it does involve their queen. Watch for Obama to rush his SCOTUS nominee quickly to take some of the media attention away from Pelosi. He can't have her grilled in the media too long.

Obama uses Bully pulpit to Coerce Opponents to Chrysler Plan

In a not unexpected move, Obama and his administration threatened ( and in some cases, has already done it) to use the power of the Washington Press Corp to embarrass and destroy the reputation of a firm that opposed the Obama Chrysler plan.

Outlined in a post by ABC News it seems that the White House has little concern about the legal rights of creditors in a bankruptcy if those rights don't go along with its agenda and goals. And if secured bondholders, who usually are one of the first to be paid in a bankruptcy, don't accept a demotion to a lower level payout, Obama has no shame in saying whatever it takes to bully them into submission.

Case in point - Obama criticized some of the secured creditors by announcing - "In particular, a group of investment firms and hedge funds decided to hold out for the prospect of an unjustified taxpayer-funded bailout. They were hoping that everybody else would make sacrifices, and they would have to make none."

What the smartest man to ever be elected president failed to mention, is that those nasty, evil investment firms had agreed to a 50 cent on the dollar payout. Not the 27 cent payout Obama wanted them to take. With the difference to be for the benefit of the union pensioners, who in a normal bankruptcy would be pretty much out in the cold. But remember who voted Obama in... the unions.

So this is the 'Change we can believe in' - the most sinister and dirty administration ever!

How the CIA really feels about Obama

A former security expert from France describes how Obama's attack and lack of support for the CIA is viewed from Europe.

Here's an excerpt:
"Well, if you thought the war they waged against Bush was intense, it was nothing compared to how they're going to screw Obama. He has tried to gut them with the ‘torture memo' release and slashing their budgets. The morale is depressed, sullen, and enraged. You know what a left-wing outfit Langley is. They thought he was their boy and they feel betrayed. All kinds of damaging stuff on him will be appearing via their media friends."

Eric Holder: You've got mail!

Here's a link to a copy of the letter Andrew McCarthy sent to Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, declining to participate in the Obama administration's charade, the President’s Task Force on Detention Policy

Andrew McCarthy, a former chief assistant U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, and now a senior fellow of a conservative think-tank, National Review Institute, could easily see through the spin by Holder and to the real purpose of the meeting:

"It is quite clear ... that the Obama administration has already settled on a policy of releasing trained jihadists (including releasing some of them into the United States)," he wrote. "Whatever the good intentions of the organizers, the meeting will obviously be used by the administration to claim that its policy was arrived at in consultation with current and former government officials experienced in terrorism cases and national security issues."

Be sure to read the full letter to grasp the terrifying reality of what the Obama administration is doing.

Well done, Mr. McCarthy!
