Obama's old buddy shows up in anti-Trump Chicago protest.

Obama’s Old Friend Shows Up At Anti-Trump Protest In Chicago – You’ll Instantly Recognize
"Protests that led to the cancellation of a Donald Trump rally in Chicago on Friday included at least one domestic terrorist and were in part orchestrated by MoveOn, a group of activists."  . .  .

. . . "Amid the crowd whipped up by MoveOn was Bill Ayers, who during his days as a leader in the Weather Underground movement in the 1970s, participated in bombing at a New York City police headquarters." . . .

(VIDEO) BREAKING. Secret Service Shields Donald Trump From Protester At Ohio Rally  . . . "The suspect was identified as Thomas Dimassimo, 32, and was charged with disorderly conduct and inducing panic — both misdemeanors, Chief Mike Etter of the Dayton Airport Police Department told NBC News.
"Dimassimo jumped the bike racks and tried to climb onto the stage, but was stopped by Secret Service stationed there, Etter said. He was being held at the Montgomery County jail in Dayton."

Fascists v. Leftists: Chicago, America at the Boiling Point  . . . "There is video, if you care to watch it, here. I wouldn’t, if I were you – it’s ugly, depressing, and sad. I say that knowing full well that I’m giving away traffic by doing so, and by not embedding the video, but I could not care less. I simply cannot place myself in the shoes of people who would place themselves on either side of this particular farce, and be really fired up about being there, as both sides clearly were."  Leon H. Wolf

  Chicago  "Who or What Did They Come to See?"

. . . "Still, it is doubtful the Left has actually shut the Donald down.  They've most likely supercharged him. Saul Alinsky taught his disciples that confrontation -- of precisely the kind that just transpired in Chicago -- radicalized people far more efficiently than speeches, and exhorted organizers to seek every opportunity, not to "get along", but to let it all hang out.  By that standard the Trump supporters have been given a master class in radicalization.  Because the rally has merely been postponed or relocated, it's better than even odds that tonight's fireworks will attract as many people for the rematch as it repels.

" 'If you build it, they will come," goes the line in movie Field of Dreams.  In this case, who built what keeps 'em coming. President Obama recently told CBS that he didn't create Donald Trump and assigned the blame to the Republican Party.  But then he also said he didn't cause the "s**t show" in Libya or Syria: David Cameron did." . . .

WHY NETANYAHU STOOD UP OBAMA

Daniel Greenfield

"On March 9, 2010, the headlines were chocked with outrage over Netanyahu’s “snub” to Obama. Six years later, almost to the day, the same rerun is playing on news networks across America.

"The White House is outraged, shocked and infuriated by Netanyahu’s “snub.” Obama is depressed at the snub and gorging on a pint of Ben and Jerry’s Brownie Batter to get over the pain of a skipped meeting with the Israeli prime minister. Obama-Netanyahu meetups convey all the joy of a root canal and yet we’re supposed to believe that Obama was looking forward to this particular session with Netanyahu. 

"Obama and his media allies are assuming that everyone forgot the last time they put on the same production of “Fake Outrage Theater” on this same date for the same exact reasons. Like the PLO, Obama keeps picking fights with Israel while trying to make it look like he’s the real victim." . . .

Biden captured the fake mountain-molehill outrage best, "I condemn the decision by the government of Israel to advance planning for new housing units." A decision by a building committee to “advance planning” while Biden was in the country was, according to Hillary Clinton, “insulting not just to the Vice President who didn’t deserve that… but it was an insult to the United States.” Unlike Iran’s loving abduction and humiliation of American sailors at gunpoint on video which was a diplomatic success.

The Obama Doctrine presented and discussed

We have seen for eight years that this man is a pompous blame-shifter, but still the choice of an electorate that seems ignorant of America's role as the necessary protector of free nations against tyranny for over sixty years. They say we shouldn't be the world's policeman, but what if there are world criminals? TD   Illustrations added by TD

The Atlantic  "FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 2013, the day the feckless Barack Obama brought to a premature end America’s reign as the world’s sole indispensable superpower. . . " 
. . . "At a joint press conference . . . Cameron’s statement, one of his advisers told me, was meant to encourage Obama toward more-decisive action. “The prime minister was certainly under the impression that the president would enforce the red line,”. . . 

. . . "The king of Jordan, Abdullah II—already dismayed by what he saw as Obama’s illogical desire to distance the U.S. from its traditional Sunni Arab allies and create a new alliance with Iran, Assad’s Shia sponsor—complained privately, “I think I believe in American power more than Obama does.” The Saudis, too, were infuriated. They had never trusted Obama—he had, long before he became president, referred to them as a “so-called ally” of the U.S. “Iran is the new great power of the Middle East, and the U.S. is the old,” Jubeir, the Saudi ambassador in Washington, told his superiors in Riyadh." . . .

. . . "For some foreign-policy experts, even within his own administration, Obama’s about-face on enforcing the red line was a dispiriting moment in which he displayed irresolution and naïveté, and did lasting damage to America’s standing in the world. "   Read the full article here

So now here comes the reaction but not to worry; Obama voters will not be concerned in any way. The man may be a foreign policy nincompoop, but he is their foreign policy nincompoop. TD

UK Daily Mail: US bid to heal rift with Prime Minister over Barack Obama's extraordinary Libya blast   "The White House scrambled to repair relations with Britain yesterday after Barack Obama blasted David Cameron over his failures in Libya.

. . . "A diplomatic dispute flared when the US President launched an extraordinary attack on the Prime Minister for helping to turn the country into a 's*** show'." . . .

From The National Interest: Recovering from the Obama Doctrine
“ 'The failure of [the administration’s] foreign policy is now clear to everyone except its architects, and even they must entertain private doubts. . .” So began Jeane Kirkpatrick’s seminal piece excoriating President Carter’s flawed foreign policy and laying the groundwork for a major strategic realignment under President Reagan; but she just as well might have been talking about President Obama as he approaches his final year in office. Rarely has a U.S. president caused so much damage in so many spheres due to such a fundamental failure in foreign policy philosophy." . . .

Iran’s Ayatollah Says, ‘Under Obama, the U.S. Lacks the Might it Once Had’ — Do You AGREE?   . . . "The Ayatollah, who is considered the real power in Iran, noted that “Iran’s cultural heritage and its great civilization along with its independence seeking discourse rooted in the Islamic Revolution culture has increased the Iranian potentials to play a key role in the creation of the new world order.' ”

Cancellation of the Trump rally is only the beginning

Trump's cancellation of his rally will open the floodgates of violence wherever he appears.

Is the violence at Trump's Chicago rally a campaign game changer?
. . . "The violent protests will generate some sympathy for Trump. But I think a lot more voters will be appalled that Trump's rhetoric has opened a chasm beneath our feet and given us a glimpse of hell. Violence at political rallies makes us look like a banana republic and cheapens our democracy. The protesters should be allowed to scream all they want outside the arenas were Trump rallies will take place. And Trump should dial down the violent rhetoric that encourages his supporters to lash out at protesters."

Anti-Trump Crowd Flies A Communist Flag During Protest   "I want to say I'm surprised, but I'm not. Anti-Trump protester is seen in the background of CNN's live coverage holding up a Communist flag.

"I suppose since the left seems to forget the fact that Communism is responsible for more deaths than any other form of government, this guy will get some high fives among the Sanders crowd."

Brownshirts invade Trump rally  . . . "Needless to say, such misguided attempts at castigating Trump sickeningly diminish the real atrocities committed by the real Hitler. These people show how little they know, but in addition, last night they showed their hypocrisy."

When asked why they were protesting, several protesters said "I choose not to answer". WTF kind of protester is that?

Chants of “Bernie, Bernie”

California’s Carl’s Jr. Says So Long, Golden State

Democrats will chant about "corporate greed", but Americans need to fear government greed!

Investor's Business Daily

"To hear Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, you’d think that taxes can go up to 60% or even 80%, and businesses and investors will just … pay up. But the growing number of businesses stampeding out of high tax areas suggest that they’re very wrong.

"We got more evidence of that this week when CKE Restaurants, the corporate parent of Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. restaurants, announced that they are relocating to Nashville, Tennessee.

"Hardee’s will move its headquarters from St. Louis, Missouri, to Nashville, Tennessee, one of America’s fastest growing states.

"Oh, and did we mention that the state has no personal income tax?

"Meanwhile, the Carl’s Jr. move puts more egg on the face of California and the political class in Sacramento. Hamburger fast food chain Carl’s Jr. was founded in California and for years has been headquartered in Carpinteria, California. The highest income tax rate in California is 13%, so moving to Tennessee, where the tax rate is zero, will save the company millions of dollars on taxes a year." . . .

What the left will call evil "corporate greed" is simply good business and the free market at work. TD

Hillary . . . Why Would the Benghazi Mom Have Made Up Her Story? UPDATED

Writer Katherine Timpf states right at the start, "This is not a rhetorical question."

National Review   . . . "I really am asking! I’m a pretty doggone creative person, but no matter how hard I try, I just cannot seem to think of a single reason why Smith would lie about this. After all, it’s not as if Smith has anything to gain politically. (Seeing as, you know, she’s not a politician.) Hillary, on the other hand, has a lot to politically lose if she admits that she did indeed look this woman in the eyes at her only son’s funeral and lie to her about his death."

"To be clear, Hillary’s saying that Smith is “wrong” to accuse her either (a) being delusional and imagining scenarios that did not happen or (b) of being someone who would deliberately lie to her at her own son’s funeral for seemingly no reason at all (that is, of being a twisted and downright despicable person)." . . .  Read more.

UPDATE:  ABC Censors Mother of Benghazi Victim’s Charges Against Hillary Clinton  "In a stunning moment Univision anchor Jorge Ramos, in the March 9 Democratic debate, actually played a clip of Patricia Smith and pressed Hillary Clinton to respond to the mother of Bengazhi victim Sean Smith.

"The moment was stunning because while Fox News has pursued her story, the Big Three networks (ABC, CBS, NBC) have barely touched it. In fact, since 2012, ABC has yet to air a second of Smith’s claims that the former Secretary of State lied to her. In total, there have just been five stories (CBS 2, NBC 3, ABC 0) that contained Smith’s emotional pleas for answers.  

"In contrast, in the summer of 2005 when anti-Iraq war mom Cindy Sheehan camped out in front of George W. Bush’s Crawford, Texas ranch the networks flooded their evening and morning shows with 100 stories (ABC 37, NBC 33, CBS 30) in the first month (August 9 through September 9) of coverage alone." . . .

Slate has some advice for Hillary in opposing Trump

From the very anti-Trump RealClearPolitics. Think not? look at their links.
Start with this one: America's Political Decay and the Rise of Trump  by David Ignatuis

Is Hillary Clinton Likable Enough to Beat Donald Trump?

"Yes, but it won’t be easy."

. . . "After a quarter-century on the national stage, Clinton can no longer console herself that voters just haven’t gotten to know her yet. They know her very well, and a solid, unmovable mass of them simply do not like her. The battering she has taken over her use of a private email server as secretary of state and the pseudo-scandal regarding the 2012 terrorist attack in Benghazi have reinforced the belief that she is less than truthful. Averaging various polls, her favorable/unfavorable rating now hovers at around 40–53. A 13-point negative gap in favorability would bode badly, were she not facing the prospect of a likely Republican nominee with a 28-point gap."
. . . 

. . . "She will have some chance to show a softer side at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia in July, which follows her pregnant daughter Chelsea’s due date for the Clintons’ second grandchild. Instances of warmth may ensue.

"But trying too hard to humanize Clinton could backfire, as it did in 2000 with Al Gore’s attempts at a makeover when he ran for the Democrats. A wiser strategy would be to reinforce what people do like about Clinton. Whether or not they fully trust her, large majorities of voters view her as competent, decisive, and prepared for the job of being president. Politicians don’t need to be beloved in order to be successful. A measure of respect is sufficient."
