The Clintons’ Own Media Meat Puppet George ‘What Donations?’ Stephanopoulos!!
 "The Noisy Room :My nomination this week goes to George Stephanopoulos for failing to disclose that he donated $75,000 to the Clinton Foundation and was obviously biased in his coverage and defense of Hillary Clinton. As the New York Post so astutely put it the bigger they are, the dumber they think we are:"

 

Rev Al’s Understudy, Dominique Sharpton!

Lets see what we can learn about Hillary today

Ron Fournier: I Don't Believe Hillary Clinton. . . "I don't believe her because a person's actions are more revealing than words: She kept her government email on a secret server and, only under pressure from Congress, returned less than half of them to the State Department. She deleted the rest. She considered them hers.
"I don't believe her when she says, "I want those emails out. Nobody has a bigger interest in those being released than I do." . . .

Hillary Clinton says her Iraq war vote was a 'mistake'    “The United States is doing what it can but ultimately this has to be a struggle that the Iraqi government and the Iraqi people are determined to win for themselves,” said Clinton. “And we can provide support, but they’re going to have to do it.”

 During her 2008 campaign, Clinton defended her vote as a way to give President Bush authority to deal with Iraq.

'Hillary Unhinged: In Her Own Words'; "Tom Kuiper's devastating exposé of the would-be first female president"

"This is a completely updated paperback version of “I’ve Always Been a Yankees Fan,” the classic quote book on Hillary that, in Dick Morris’s words, provides “all the ammunition you need” to “make sure that Hillary’s quotes and lies are not forgotten, but come back to haunt her.” Even better, “Hillary Unhinged” is chock full of QR codes you can use to go directly to the most outrageous videos and audios of Hillary:

A partial “Hillary Unhinged” chapter list includes: “Saint Hillary, “Hillary’s Potty Mouth,” “Hillary on Money,” “Revisionist Hillary History,” “Hillary vs. Barack,” “The War on Women,” “Dodging Sniper Fire,” “Vast Conspiracies,” “The Smartest Woman in the World?” and “Blaming Republicans.”

Clinton Breaks Her Silence   “ 'After weeks of determinedly avoiding the media altogether, Hillary Clinton was finally drawn into an exchange with journalists Tuesday, briefly answering questions about donations to her family foundation, her emails while secretary of State, the millions she earned giving speeches and the Iraq war,” the Los Angeles Times reports.

“ 'It was a rare unscripted five minutes for a campaign that leaves little to chance. It was not clear if the candidate intended to talk to reporters at all, but once drawn in, she sought to turn uncomfortable questions about her record and the controversies that continue to swirl around her and Bill Clinton to her advantage.”

"The Des Moines Register has a list of the six questions she answered.

Here’s a clock that counts the minutes since Hillary Clinton answered a press question

 

Michael Barone: On the Campaign Trail, Hillary’s Press Silence Speaks Volumes
 . . . "It’s easy to say today that Franklin Roosevelt should have sent special ops to assassinate Hitler in the 1930s. But Roosevelt, who understood Hitler’s evil earlier than most, never considered it. In 2003, given what the U.S. and other intelligence services reported about Saddam Hussein, no responsible leader then could have assumed that he did not possess or seek weapons of mass destruction. The hard question, on which reasonable people differed and differ, was what — if anything — to do about it."

Obama’s Police Task Force Snuck This One by Us – Illegal Alien Felons/ Democrat Voters Get to Stay

 "They Are An Important Voting Block For Democrats!"

Independent Sentinel   "The Obama administration’s Police Task Force has a new “recommendation” that law enforcement better follow. Local police are no longer to report illegal alien felons to any agency that could deport them.

"Local, State and County law enforcement will no longer have any jurisdiction over this class of criminal when it comes to deportation – Homeland Security will have sole responsibility. They’ve been silenced.

"Sheriff Paul Babeau discussed this latest abomination out of the White House on Neil Cavuto’s show this afternoon.

"The Arizona Sheriff said we now have the finishing touches to President Obama’s “no enforcement of the law when it comes to illegal immigration because the majority of law enforcement are us – local, state, county law enforcement.' ” . . .

Alan Dershowitz: Obama is a “Foreign Policy Disaster”

Nice Deb"During an interview with Newsmax’s JD Hayworth, liberal Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz had some harsh words for Barack Obama.

"Dersh was on Newsmax TV to talk about the coming nuclear arms race in the Middle East as other Arab nations declare their resolve to match Iran in nuclear bombs – a charming development for which we can thank President “Smart Power” Obama.

"Dershowitz said Obama would go down in history as a “foreign policy disaster,” saying his terrible negotiations with Iran put the US in an impossible situation.

“ 'It is the worst negotiation I have ever seen,” the professor fumed. “I wouldn’t hire this guy to negotiate a one-month lease for me on an apartment.  He basically played poker with all of his cards showing, and the Iranians were playing chess by hiding their part of the board. It was just a dumb, dumb negotiation.”
Via Freedom’s Lighthouse:

Speaking of disasters, Professor Dershowitz voted for Obama twice. Not just once – which I could almost excuse – even the smartest among us can get fooled by a slick charlatan once. But he voted for the gut-wrenchingly corrupt, lying weasel TWICE. #SMH. #SadTrombone.

The Worst Day of Hillary Clinton's Campaign....so far

 

Stephen F. Hayes  "In fact, she’s had a series of bad days since she announced her presidential bid April 12. But Monday was the worst of them.

In a bombshell report, the New York Times reported that Clinton, as secretary of state, used her private email to share private intelligence reports from noted conspiracy theorist and political hitman Sidney Blumenthal, at a time when Blumenthal was being paid by the Clinton Foundation and liberal political organizations that helped lay the groundwork for Clinton’s presidential campaign.

The emails included reports on Libya at a time when Blumenthal was seeking business in the country and included dubious information. The Times reported that Clinton nonetheless “took Mr. Blumenthal’s advice seriously” and “continued to pass around his emails even after other senior diplomats concluded that Mr. Blumenthal’s assessments were often unreliable.”

"A second story about Clinton and Libya broke the same day, this one casting further doubt on the Obama administration’s narrative about the attacks on U.S. facilities in Benghazi on September 11, 2012, and specifically on claims Clinton made about nature of those attacks and motivations of the attackers. An intelligence report prepared by the Defense Intelligence Agency and sent to Clinton and other senior administration officials on September 12, 2012, just one day after the attacks, concluded that the attack “was planned ten or more days” in advance and was meant to “kill as many Americans as possible.” The report identifies al Qaeda-linked terrorists believed to have been involved in the assault.

"Despite this, the Obama administration crafted a public narrative that the attack had evolved from a “spontaneous” protest over a YouTube video and included a wide range of individuals. Clinton cited the video in remarks at a memorial service on September 14, 2012, for those killed in the attacks. She told members of the victims’ families that the administration would bring to justice those responsible for the video. The DIA report and several other Benghazi-related documents were released to Judicial Watch pursuant to a court order in response to a FOIA request.

"The DIA report further undermines the administration’s already-tattered claims that its public case was based on intelligence assessments. Emails released in response to a previous Judicial Watch request showed that the White House had drafted a set of political talking points that sought to blame the video and not administration policy. " . . .

 Comfortably Mum

 

"Hillary Clinton continues to say absolutely nothing about absolutely anything on the campaign trail, which is starting to make Hope n' Change wonder if she realizes that political candidates, unlike Trappist monks and Lois Lerner, are not required to take a vow of silence.

"Although if we were in Hillary's sensible shoes, we'd be keeping our yap shut too. After all, what can she possibly say to look good after the former deputy director of the CIA, Mike Morell, states as a certainty that every document which was ever on her private email server was downloaded by one or more foreign intelligence agencies."  . . .

This painting just sold for $46.5 million at Sotheby’s in New York

Jews News

 

"A Mark Rothko painting sold for $46.5 million at a Sotheby’s auction in New York, an evening in which several records were set including one for a work by German artist Sigmar Polke.

"The Rothko work “Untitled, (Yellow and Blue),” measuring 2.42 meters by 1.86 meters (about 8 feet by 6.1 feet) and completed in 1954, had been estimated at between $40 million and $60 million.

"The painting was once owned by American socialite Rachel “Bunny” Mellon, according to Bloomberg.

"Rothko was one of the most successful and famous artists in America before he killed himself in 1970, The Guardian notes.

"Sotheby’s notes on its website that “few 20th-century masters have inspired greater awe and reverence in their followers than” Rothko." . . .

More on the despised media and ABC's Steph infection

ABC’s ‘secret’ $105M gamble on Stephanopoulos  "ABC has plenty of reasons to be freaking out over the George Stephanopoulos scandal — 105 million, to be exact.
"The “Good Morning America” and “This Week” anchor renewed his contract last year for $105 million, TV industry sources told The Post Monday.
"The seven-year deal — which dwarfs the five-year, $50 million contract scored by since-suspended NBC rival Brian Williams — was supposed to keep Stephanopoulos in front of ABC’s cameras through 2021." . . .

Lucianne  gives us some resource material for journalism students:
Scandal Rap Sheet: 48 Excellent Reasons to Distrust & Despise the Media   "The American mainstream media is filled to the brim with liars, frauds, partisans, cheats, plagiarists, and those who tolerate, defend and enable all of them. There is no American institution — not the NFL, not the tobacco companies, not any corporation or enterprise regularly targeted by the media — that engages in anywhere near the amount of fraud and dishonesty that serially oozes from Our Media Overlords.

"Forget bias for a moment. Forget mistakes and misstatements and stupid or nasty things said during live telecasts. There isn’t enough Internet to begin to list the countless instances of left-wing bias and politicking and idiocy the media engage in. What I’ve accumulated below is the scripted, planned and intentional." . . .Keep reading...

Obama, Distrust, and the Armed Forces

 Jade Helm: Distrust of our military, or distrust of this commander-in-chief?

 

 Russ Vaughn ..." I recently wrote a piece here about the Jade Helm military operations scheduled to be conducted across large areas of the U.S. this summer. A few irresponsible conservative web sites are using these routine military training activities to frighten citizens in the selected areas into believing the federal government is planning an armed takeover of their locales." . . .

"Not once in almost five decades of my association with the military have I heard any serving member or veteran agree that he would take up arms against fellow Americans to impose the political will of a sitting president. Conversely, I’ve heard many times that an order to do so would be considered unlawful and refusable. When the Jade Helm article was cross-posted at my favorite soldiers’ blog, This Ain’t Hell, I was gratified to see that the majority of comments there, almost all from still-serving service members or veterans, validated that belief." . . .

. . . "If we Americans really want to get mad about something, shouldn’t it be the fact that the Obama administration was unresponsive to citizens’ concerns on militarization of local law enforcement until it became a black issue? For example I rather suspect that the inclusion of bayonets on the federal list of proscribed weapons is likely due more to the symbolism of rifles with fixed bayonets having been used in black riot control in the past than for any heightened lethality lent to police armories, an indicator of the real priorities of this administration as it winds to a close." . . .Read more:

How to Kill Christianity

 

Trevor Thomas  " Much has been made of the recent Pew poll that highlights America’s religious landscape. What has drawn the most attention is the apparent decline of Christianity in the U.S. “The Christian share of the U.S. population is declining,” began the piece. Many liberals took gleeful notice. The Institute on Religion and Democracy’s Mark Tooley noted, “Secularists and their fellow travelers are ecstatic. The secular utopia about which John Lennon crooned is impending. Christianity is finally dying!”
. . . 
 By and large, the churches that are growing in the U.S. are those that unapologetically present the truth. Of course, a large or a growing church isn’t always a measure of a healthy and holy church, but when one is sincerely seeking the spiritual truths that we all at one time or another crave, most of us “seekers” know the truth when we hear it and see it. This doesn’t mean that the majority of us will embrace such truths. Jesus Himself warned us that this would not be the case.
Don’t be surprised to see the decline of Christianity continue. As it becomes more difficult and dangerous to be a follower of Christ, more and more people are going to find the “wide road” described by Jesus quite appealing. This is especially the case when so-called “Christians” are pointing the way.
