What does the NFL have in store for America on 9-11?

"Politicized NFL Has to Do Something About the Craptastic Seahawks"

"Watching black football players who earn millions of dollars make insulting gestures to protest “oppression” is ludicrous. These are the same people who haven’t done much if anything for poor blacks and gang youth and they don’t have their facts straight.

"The Seattle Seahawks are probably going to protest alleged oppression of blacks and police brutality on 9/11 at the game in support of Colin Kaepernick’s display of disrespect for our flag and our country.

"The NFL — that wouldn’t let the Denver Broncos wear a memorial police decal on their helmets to honor the murdered cops in Dallas — is the same NFL that won’t do a blasted thing about players disrespecting the flag. If this continues, the NFL needs to feel a pinch in their pocketbooks. Don’t watch their games for a while until they get the message."

New York Giants wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr. and Victor Cruz are preparing to kick off the season in patriotic style.
"Beckham will wear a special 9/11 cleat during warmups, while Cruz will have a fire truck cleat with his late father's engine number on them. Cruz's dad was a fireman in Paterson, New Jersey."

Police Unions Slam Goodell, Promise To Pay NFL Player’s Fine If He Wears 9/11 Cleats

"We were snarky earlier about Goodells’s reaction to another player’s 9/11 shoes. But turns out our knock on him was true. Decals honoring police, Cleats honoring 9/11 victims=bad. Sitting for anthem=cool." Via NY Post:

And then...

THE AMERICAN MILITARY AND THE SPECTER OF AN UNTRUSTWORTHY COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF

Ari Lieberman
"A track record of failure and fabrication puts military voters on edge."

"In August 1993, Hillary Clinton’s husband Bill dispatched a force of U.S. Army Rangers and Delta Force commandos to war-torn Somalia in an effort to seize the Somali warlord, Mohammed Farrah Aidid. Military commanders had assessed the need for armor and air cover to carry out the dangerous mission. They requested M-1 Abrams tanks, Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, as well as AC-130 gunships but the Clinton administration obscenely denied the request placing U.S. forces in a very vulnerable situation.. . . 

"Though the Rangers and Delta Force commandos ultimately prevailed, 18 soldiers were killed (some of the bodies were mutilated), 73 were wounded and a helicopter pilot was captured. Had the request for armor and air cover been granted, there is no question that the outcome of the Battle of Mogadishu would have been vastly different and U.S. casualties would have been minimal. Adding insult to injury, Aidid’s aides, captured at great cost and sacrifice, were quickly released on orders from the political echelon.

"Bill Clinton should have resigned but instead passed the buck to his loyal secretary of defense, Les Aspin, who resigned in disgrace a few months later.  . . .

"The Islamist assault on the U.S. consulate office in Benghazi on the anniversary of the 9-11 attacks was meticulously planned and well-coordinated. Requests for beefing up security at the site were either ignored or denied by Hillary’s State Department. An additional contingent of U.S. military personnel or private military contractors could have meant the difference between life and death.

"Despite Clinton’s best efforts to stage-manage the Benghazi hearings (as emails from the Clinton camp suggest), the Select Committee on Benghazi released a damning report that reflected poorly on the former secretary of state’s actions before, during and after the September 11, attack. Poor intelligence and needless bureaucratic bungling prevented rapid deployment of forces to the theater.

"But it was Clinton’s web of lies, spun after the Benghazi assault, that truly highlight the wretchedness of this person. As countless emails reveal, Clinton was well aware that the consulate attack was premeditated and the work of trained Muslim terrorists." . . .

Will “Basket of Deplorables” become the new “47 Percent”?

Hot Air  "Nothing says woman of the people like a political candidate who got filthy rich while serving in the Senate and State Department insulting millions of voters while surrounded by celebrities, right? Hillary Clinton shifted her attack from Donald Trump to his supporters at a fundraiser in New York City, putting “half” of them into “a basket of deplorables.” That’s a memorable turn of phrase, but will Hillary want to forget it?"

. . . "Those are the people Hillary insulted with these remarks last night. Merrill’s smart enough to know it, too. This sneering, condescending, and insulting stereotyping of millions of voters perfectly encapsulates the Clintonian quarter-century, especially with their above-the-law antics since leaving the White House. And that’s why most candidates stick to insulting each other, and not voters.

"In a way, it’s reminiscent of Mitt Romney’s “47 percent” remarks from four years ago." . . . 

On Obama as the leader of the Free World

Retired general claims Obama sees NATO as a 'threat'  . . . "A president who sees an alliance of our best friends as a threat? Too bad he doesn't see Iran in the same light. Or China, Russia, Cuba, and any other cutthroat, thuggish regime on the planet.

"Trump was criticized for claiming that the president constantly ignores the advice from his generals. This is apparently not only true, but doesn't tell the whole story. Obama has tried to undermine the most successful alliance in modern history, an act of towering stupidity that has affected our collective security in Europe. 

"Showing Obama's true feelings about NATO won't go over well in Europe. If they hadn't already taken his measure and found it wanting, they will now."

Obama purged military of those who sought victory . . . " It is a fait accompli, engineered by our commander-in-chief to reduce America's global footprint, an America he has profusely apologized for, and one he blames for all the world's ills.

 "Almost as soon as he took office, President Obama began a military purge not dissimilar to those routinely conducted by third-world despots, with the goal of eliminating voices that might oppose his withdrawing America from the world stage.  As Investor's Business Daily editorialized:". . . 
Recognize Bill Ayers or Jeremiah Wright in any of Obama's policies discussed here?

Islamist Terrorism Must Be Punished  . . . "On August 31, 2016 the U.S. Federal Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in New York surprisingly overturned a lower court decision that had imposed a large fine on the Palestinian Authority and the Palestine Liberation Organization for supporting a number of terrorist attacks in Israel." . . .

Wonder what's next on the long line of cheap shots at the U.S.!
. . .  "We are living in extremely dangerous times, and President Obama does not have a clue.  Worse than that, no one in the U.S. media is bothering to ask him about it or hold him accountable for the disarray.  The media is obsessed with Trump, Mrs. Clinton is promising not to send ground troops, and our enemies are enjoying it a great deal.

NYT calls for moderator ‘fact check’ after Lauer sins by allowing candidates to speak

HopeNChangeCartoons

Observer  . . . "Suddenly, Lauer is garbage, no better—in the eyes of the mainstream media—than some basement-dwelling right-wing blogger.

"His sin? He allowed Trump to speak during the candidate forum, and didn’t press the Republican presidential nominee on his answers to the liking of the liberal media. This morning, I detailed the extent of the hate being spewed against Lauer by his colleagues in the mainstream media." . . .

"It seems obvious they’re all just upset that Trump hasn’t said or done anything to take the heat off of Clinton’s two weeks of bad news coverage. Previously, whenever bad news broke for Clinton, Trump was there to say or do something outrageous that would suck up attention and allow Clinton to skate scrutiny. That has changed since Kellyanne Conway became campaign manager, Steve Bannon of Breitbart News became campaign CEO, and Jamestown Associates (full disclosure: a group I am collaborating with on a documentary) took over communications.

"Desperate to hold up their historically terrible candidate (second only to Trump himself), the media is now using Lauer as a scapegoat and sending a warning to debate moderators that if they don’t step in and do everything they can to sink Trump’s candidacy, they will be pariahs in their profession." . . .

Dear Colin Kaepernick:

Ryan Bomberger 

 . . . "We have similar backgrounds. You’re biracial. I’m biracial. Both of us had black biological “fathers” who weren’t in the picture at all. (Actually, that’s an understatement for me as my biological mother was raped yet chose life despite her horrific circumstances). Your biological mother faced different but dire circumstances, too. Each of our courageous birthmoms chose adoption for us, allowing us to be loved like crazy
. . .
. . . " You’ve been seduced into a false narrative that exploits racism for political means when your experience and your biracialism should call you to be what President Obama has never chosen to be —a unifier. Rockin’ an afro doesn’t make you blacker or righter, by the way. It doesn’t change who I am either. Truth changes who we are…for the better. . . .  The fundamentally dishonest, Marxist #BlackLivesMatter movement is toxic. Surely, there’s a better way to illuminate actual injustice and address needless, tragic losses of life without spewing the venom of a movement rooted in regurgitated black nationalism.

"Martin Luther King powerfully declared: “Let us be dissatisfied until that day when nobody will shout, ‘White Power!’ when nobody will shout, ‘Black Power!’ but everybody will talk about God's power and human power!”  . . .

Ryan Bomberger has a rather unique perspective on the nature of Purpose. Adopted into a large multi-racial family of 15, he grew up in a Christian home that exuded compassion. Today he’s an adoptee and adoptive father. As an Emmy® Award-winning creative professional he is passionate about igniting, in people’s hearts and minds, an awareness and a love of the intrinsic value we all possess. Ryan and his wife, Bethany, created The Radiance Foundation in 2009 as a life-affirming educational organization. Through creative ad campaigns, powerful live multimedia presentations and compassionate community outreach, Radiance illuminates the God-given Purpose within each of us. " . . .

"Two stupids: Kaepernick and Nessa Diab"  . . . "Thousands of black-on-black killings in Chicago, and acorn-brains like Nessa want to stop the cops from protecting her people.

"Chop down the tree of brainless rebellion.  Spare blacks from the undercurrent of violence by Kaepernick.  Save blacks from their own limousine liberals."

OOPS! Kaepernick Supporter, Broncos’ Brandon Marshall DROPPED By Sponsor  . .  . "Air Academy Federal Credit Union, which mostly serves members of the military and their families, announced on social media Friday that it was ending its five-month relationship with Marshall." . . .
