THE REAL GOAL OF ERIC HOLDER'S GUN-RUNNING
So Obama takes four guys out for some barbecue and soul food at a place called Kenny's BBQ in D.C. and stiffs the joint. Walks out without paying his $55.58 bill.
Sounds like he's emulating the Kennedys, who were notorious for inviting people out to lunch or dinner, then sticking them with the check.

Why has Maj. Nidal Hasan, perpetrator of the Ft. Hood massacre, not yet faced trial (court martial) almost three years later? And why does the Muslim-influenced Obama administration ludicrously refer to the bloodbath that killed thirteen people and wounded more than forty others on a military base as "workplace violence?"
The handling of this case, alone, should be enough to remove Obama and everyone associated with his foul, misbegotten administration from office.

Michael Walsh (NY Post) summarizes the plight of the scheming, devious Attorney General, Eric Holder ...
"After more than a year of half-truths, stonewalling, obfuscating and outright lying to Congress about the 'gunwalking' scandal known as Fast and Furious, Attorney General Eric Holder now finds himself trapped in a box canyon, out of ammo and surrounded by hostiles.
"Under Fast and Furious, the feds funneled thousands of firearms through phony 'straw purchasers' directly to Mexican drug cartels, all without any notification of Mexico’s government or rational provision to trace the weapons. It was madness.
"And, despite Holder’s delaying tactics, the truth about how that insanity came about has been clear for some time: A cabal of officials at the highest levels of the Justice Department authorized the operation as part of the Obama administration’s 'stealth' gun-control strategy — presumably to make it appear that the horrific violence of Mexico’s drug war is partly our fault."
Got it? The plan was to make it APPEAR that more U.S. gun-control laws (confiscations) were needed to prevent killings in Mexico. It was all about Obama's determination to undermine the gun ownership rights of Americans.

Are you getting e-mail with attractive offers on Mediterranean cruises? There are some unbelievable bargains being offered, but be forewarned: there's a reason why cruise lines are having to cut prices.
Aside from overall economic conditions that have forced discounts in most cruise destinations, Med cruises are particularly hard-hit because of political strife stemming from teetering economies.
In some ports, dockworkers' strikes have hindered or blocked loading and unloading passengers. Visitors to Athens' port, Piraeus, have found themselves unable to go anywhere because strikes have killed ground transportation. Tourists have been stranded.
Strikes of airport workers have caused chaos at some airports ... Venice is notorious for canceled flights ... Iberia airlines flights to/from Barcelona are reported to be notoriously unreliable.

Joe Hicks (PJ Media) with the bottom line on the racism of Obama & Holder ...
"Barack Obama and Eric Holder had the opportunity to help steer the nation toward race-neutral policies — perhaps into a post-racial era. Instead, the first black president has often dabbled in the politics of racial identity, and the first black attorney general has often shamelessly exposed his own solidarity with 'his people.' This is the man who lectured us about America being a nation of racial cowards because white Americans haven’t engaged in sufficient'“soul searching'.”

Congratulations, taxpayer! Not only are you supporting all the freeloaders getting food stamps, who have multiplied at a prodigious rate under Barack the Magnificent ... you're also providing them with FREE cell-phone service.
Think of that when you pay your own bill.

Bruce Thornton has composed what should be the epitaph for the Obama presidency ...
"Failed economic theory, illiberal racial policies, elitist snobbery, political freedom reduced to selfish license, and intolerance of disagreement and dissent––these are some of the pathologies of progressivism that have been illustrated every day of Obama’s presidency. It will take November’s election to show whether a critical mass of Americans has finally had their fill of this rancid progressive wine, or whether it returns once again in a new bottle." -- Frontpage Magazine --

One wonders what it would take to awaken the sheeple who still blindly worship a president under whose administration the average American family has lost more than 40% of its net worth, pays double the price for gasoline since he took office and knows from any visit to the supermarket that inflation is running rampant while the government lies about it.

A view from abroad: Walter Ellis in Britain's Telegraph newspaper and an evaluation of our Secretary of State ...
"There was a time when US secretaries of state cut a swathe through the diplomatic landscape. John Foster Dulles, who headed the State Department during the presidency of Dwight D Eisenhower. Henry Kissinger needs no introduction. George Schulz was the man who kept Ronald Reagan focused on the major issue of his time, ending the Cold War and dispatching the Soviet Union to history.
But then something happened. Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice never seemed more than ciphers for their master, George W. Bush (or perhaps, more plausibly, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld).
Now we have Hillary Rodham Clinton as a performing seal of office for Barack Obama. While Obama has floundered, Clinton has almost slipped from public view. Oh, we still see her popping up on our television screens, voicing her “deep concerns” about Burma, warning Iran, or Syria, or North Korea that the “international community” will not stand for much more of whatever crimes they are currently accused of, or calling on young women around the world to “dare to compete” with men in the world of work. But it is as if she is just going through the motions and her heart really isn’t in it.

To be in accord with a person or viewpoint is to JIBE with it, not JIVE with it. Jibe comes from a nautical term which has come to be used to indicate agreement.
Jive is, well, talking bullfeathers.

Craig Ferguson on the return of "Dallas" --
"The original 'Dallas' series started in 1978. Back then, America was very different. We had an ineffective, one-term president. Gas prices were through the roof. We were in a stand-off with Iran. I'm glad those dark days are over."

Reader Merle writes ...
"I just took a leaflet out of my mailbox informing me that I can have sex at 82!
I'm so happy, because I live at number 88, so it's not too far to walk home afterwards.
And it’s on the same side of the street, so I don’t even have to cross the road!"
"...and now, if you'll excuse me..."
