The Obama Priorities

Michael Ramirez Cartoon

"A policeman's lot is not a happy one"

 Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel
Police Work, in Black and White   . . .  "Officer Weir, do you have a problem with black people?" he asked.
"Excuse me, Sir?"
" 'I have a letter here from a man who says you used a racial slur when giving him a ticket," he growled, tossing the letter on the desk for me to read.
"Lieutenant, I assure you that's an outright lie," I protested after perusing the ragged document.
" 'Really?" he replied, furrowing his brow.  "I doubt the man would go through the trouble of sending a letter unless he was outraged by your insult."
" 'Sir, I was very respectful toward that guy."  I went on to explain what happened, but the lieutenant seemed intent on finding me guilty." . . .Strongly suggest you read this entire article!

Latonya B. James
James

“We Need To Start Killing These Officers”
. . . "The officer said that as he went to arrest the woman he was surrounded by a crowd that was voicing anti-police sentiments, including “We need to start killing these officers.” …
"The older woman punched the officer in the face and grabbed him by the throat, according to the release."


"Police said Latonya B. James, 40, of Madison threatened many times to kill the officer while on her way to jail."

Hillary digs herself deeper

Political Cartoons by Henry Payne

Thomas Lifson  . . . "For a candidate perceived as a liar and arrogant, this approach is the worst possible approach. So why is she doing it? The girl can’t help it. These are accurate perceptions. Oh, and to come clean about why she set up a server that would escape public scrutiny would involve explaining that she intended to do a lot of things, such as raising hundreds of millions of dollars for the family foundation that pays the salaries of her campaign aides in waiting and the private jet trips and five star hotel bills of her family, that would raise awkward questions.

"She compounded the damage by pleading incompetence as the explanation for her private server:
"I was not thinking a lot when I got in. There was so much work to be done. We had so many problems around the world. I didn't really stop and think, 'what kind of email system will there be?'"
“I was not thinking a lot” will become her trademark quotation if she stays in the race. This is the woman whose entire candidacy premise is competence and experience, and she has just undermined her ability to make that argument.
"Short of a personality transplant, I cannot see how Hillary can arrest her fall in the polls:" . . .

Clinton paid State Department IT staffer out of her own pocket to maintain server
