Issa vs. Holder: It's Go Time!

Via Drudge; Issa pushes ahead with Holder contempt vote despite Obama intervention

"Rep. Darrell Issa pressed ahead with a committee vote Wednesday to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, despite an 11th-hour move by President Obama to exert executive privilege over the Fast and Furious documents at the heart of the dispute. 

"The announcement instantly touched off a caustic debate on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, as Democrats accused Issa of prosecuting a "political witch hunt" and Republicans stepped up their criticism of Holder's "stonewalling" over the Fast and Furious probe. Even for Washington, the tone at the hearing was decidedly bitter and accusatory."


FLASHBACK: Obama Blasts Bush For "Hiding Behind Executive Privilege"

"You know, there's been a tendency on the part of this administration to -- to try to hide behind executive privilege every time there's something a little shaky that's taking place. And I think, you know, the administration would be best served by coming clean on this. There doesn't seem to be any national security issues involved with the U.S. attorney question. There doesn't seem to be any justification for not offering up some clear, plausible rationale for why these -- these U.S. attorneys were targeted when, by all assessments, they were doing an outstanding job. I think the American people deserve to know what was going on there.”

 M Catharine Evans; Holder Met with Issa, Didn't Bring the Goods  "Issa has a textbook contempt case against Holder. The attorney general is required by law to comply with a congressional subpoena so what is Holder going to the mat for?

"The mainstream media is complicit as well. Their deafening silence coupled with Holder's arrogance must be inversely proportional to their level of guilt."

CNN; Obama asserts executive privilege over 'Fast and Furious' document  "President Barack Obama has asserted executive privilege over document sought by a House committee investigating the botched Fast and Furious gun-running sting, said a letter to the panel Wednesday from Deputy Attorney Gen. James Cole.
"The move means the Department of Justice can withhold the documents from the panel."

What would your rebuttal be to this Muslim's charges?

American Thinker  "(culled from an anonymous blogger from the UK)"

Your infidel lifestyle has proven to be a total and absolute failure. Your degenerate Western way of life is collapsing all around you. You are unable to solve your own problems. Look at what your decadent culture and sick societies have produced: sexual immorality, pornography, prostitution, divorces, broken families, filthy movies, homosexual marriage, drugs, alcohol, gambling, consumerism, materialism, hedonism... Why do you persist in your filthy decadent Western culture? It is self-destructive. It destroys families. It destroys children. Nothing good comes out of your sick poisonous culture. The Sharia will save you from yourselves. We will never let you spread the pollution & poison our children's minds. We will fight to the death in order to keep your decadent culture out of our societies. You decadent infidels are disgusting. Keep your vile culture to yourselves. Stop trying to export it to our countries. We will fight you to the end ... and we will prevail ... even if it takes 100 years. Allahu Akbar!

Still think Lady Gaga, Madonna and rappers are popular worldwide? And that Western culture is the envy of the world?

What should we fear most?

NBC being NBC...again

What a Democrat propaganda machine; they should write all NBC newscasts off their income tax as in-kind political contributions.

Boortz; Back to the MSNBC editing suite  "There was no reference in the MSNBC piece about Romney’s lengthy comparison of the innovation in the private sector vs. government.  The purpose of the editing was to make Romney sound completely out of touch … completely bamboozled by technology. 

" All part of the effort of the ObamaMedia to make sure their tracks are covered and their guy is reelected. 

"Tell me again how the media isn’t biased."

NBC News Covers Up Andrea Mitchell's Misleading Edit

We ran clips of Mitt Romney in Cornwall, Pennsylvania, talking about his trip to WaWa. Well, the RNC and the campaign both reached out to us saying that Romney had more to say about that visit -- about federal bureaucracy and innovation in the private sector. We didn't get a chance to play that, so here it is now.

"We didn’t get a chance to play it" is a lie."...  And Mitchell owes Romney an apology

Limbaugh: 'NBC News Is An Annex of the Democrat National Committee' for Selectively Editing Romney

" "This is another outrageous example of how NBC will do anything to help Obama in 2012, no matter how unethical, irresponsible, and dishonest it is." "

From Nice Deb; Video: Andrea Mitchell Non-Apology Remix

"A remix concentrating on the two most dishonest sentences read off a teleprompter in recent memory. Watch Andrea Mitchell say a pair of carefully crafted sentences to first explain a misleading edit as a simple timing choice and second to segue quickly out of the embarrassing topic. As the face of MSNBC’s dishonestly edited video, she owes her first apology to professional journalists."

Krauthammer: Europe Doesn't "Give A Damn" What U.S. Says Under Obama

Real Clear Politics  "Charles Krauthammer offers his analysis of President Obama's G20 speech: The second thing I picked up is the subtlety of the gibberish he offered on Europe -- which was the only thing he could do because the fact that he didn't have anything to say or to offer is the perfect reflection of the decline of the American influence everywhere in the last three and a half years. I think it's a bigger decline in U.S. influence in all areas of the world -- in the Middle East, in Syria, in Europe, economically and every other way than any other three and a half years since the end of the second World War. 

"This is a president who speaks for the United States so weakly that nobody cares what he says. The Europeans care what Angela Merkel says about Greece and Spain and Italy. They don’t give a damn what the United States says because it is irrelevant"

"She was hit with six bullets and and pronounced dead along with her father at a hospital in Peshawar, according to CNN.

"In recent years the rise of the Pakistani Taliban, who disagree with singing and dancing, made it difficult for Ms Javed and other artists to perform and record songs in the country.

 "Folks, I still can't get over what happened.  In New York, a bunch of kindergarteners who were told they couldn't sing "God Bless the USA" in school because it was divisive, essentially, go to a playground to sing it, and a bunch of Democrat adults show up to heckle them.  And a Republican candidate for the Senate, Bob Turner, is there, standing in solidarity with the kids, the kindergarteners." 

That Obama-Putin deep freeze

White House Wages Rescue Effort for ‘Reset’ Rhetoric  "Asked if the meeting, which began half an hour late, was important for the Russians, a Russian diplomat said: “Yes, but even more for the Americans.” "
Putin knows Obama is an easy mark who is prepared to give away the store and continue to treat our adversaries better than he treats our friends.

"The first item listed was the “expansion of trade and investment relations,” specifically Russia’s bid to join the World Trade Organization and the Obama administration’s push for Congress “to terminate, as soon as possible, application of the Jackson-Vanik Amendment with respect to Russia and extend Permanent Normal Trade Relations to the Russian Federation.”

"The statement then gushed about Obama’s pet project of nuclear nonproliferation. “We recognize the achievements made through the Nuclear Security Summits, including the removal and elimination of nuclear materials, minimization of the civilian use of highly enriched uranium, and worldwide improvements in a nuclear security culture,” it states.

" “As a priority, we intend to successfully implement the New START Treaty, and to continue our discussions on strategic stability. Despite differences in assessments, we have agreed to continue a joint search for solutions to challenges in the field of missile defense.” "

Black clouds hang over Obama-Putin G20 talks

"The hardened tone appears to mark the endpoint of Obama's "reset" of ties with Moscow, pursued with Putin predecessor Dmitry Medvedev and touted by the White House as a signature foreign policy accomplishment."

Obama's conferencus interruptus

...."As this campaign continues we’re going to see more of this.  The worse things look for Obama the more the left is going to start tossing the race card out there.  After all, what do they have left?"

CNN ANCHOR: REPORTER INTERRUPTED PRESIDENT BECAUSE HE'S BLACK

(Video)  Don Lemon: 'Neil Munro, How Dare You'

Speaking of that, Andrew Klavan; Sam Donaldson declares Neil Munro is RACIST! Klavan writes: "Some on the left have unleashed wild accusations that I harbor a primal animosity toward Obama’s shredding of the Constitution, or his opposition to the ideals of the American founding. They think I look at Obama’s membership in a European-style socialist party (about which he lied) or his close relationship with anti-American terrorist William Ayers (about which he lied) or his twenty year tutelage under the racist, anti-American preacher Jeremiah Wright (about which he almost certainly lied) or the several attempts at government encroachments so overweening that they have been struck down 9-0 by a normally divided Supreme Court — and see all that as evidence that this president is less committed to the American project than any leader of this continent since King George.

9 lies about Obama's life

Rick Moran  "David Maraniss's new biography, "Barack Obama: The Story" is shredding the carefully constructed mirage of a life story that Obama rode to victory in 2008.
"BuzzFeed has 9 interesting fibs told by Obama about his life. Here are a few:"


BIOGRAPHER DAVID MARANISS DOWNPLAYS OBAMA LIES AS 'LITERATURE'  "As I wrote yesterday, the media loves being lied to by Barack Obama. As we all know, the furor over a sitting President caught telling 38 falsehoods in his self-penned biography would be unquenchable were we talking about a president with an R after his name. Not to mention the lies Obama told the media about his relationship with Bill Ayers and his membership in the socialist New Party."

TNT'S 'RIZZOLI & ISLES' WHACKS FRACKING

Big Hollywood  "And then you have the recent episode of TNT's "Rizzoli & Isles," a program which lashed out against the process of fracking repeatedly throughout the course of the show."

The plot featured an ex-Blackwater agent, masquerading as a yoga guru, who kills a vegan student and a professor in order to hide his drilling for natural gas from shale. This episode was a triple decker for left-wing stereotypes.
The professor that was murdered had condemned hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, in a video saying, “fracking is an invasive way to extract natural gas. Proponents say it will liberate the U.S. from dependence on foreign oil. But, my research indicates it will destroy the environment.”
One of the two main characters, medical examiner Dr. Isles reinforces that idea later in the episode saying, “they pump hundreds of chemicals thousands of feet underground. It pollutes groundwater.” Even the villain ominously tells Detective Rizzoli and Dr. Isles (after tying them in their car, which is parked on a spillway) saying, “a few million gallons of water’s gonna come pouring through here. It’s pretty toxic, from all the fracking.”

Angie Harmon (Rizzoli) is on the list of Hollywood conservatives that are admired. I hope she didn't go along with this propaganda without protest and do earnestly hope Ms. Harmon will speak out against this travesty.

Newsbusters; TNT’s ‘Rizzoli and Isles’ Demonizes Fracking  "The clear anti-fracking statements throughout the show are not new for Hollywood, and they leave out important facts. Researchers from the University of Texas at Austin recently concluded that “there is no evidence” of polluted drinking water caused by fracking. EPA administrator Lisa Jackson even told the Ithaca Journal, “We have absolutely no indication now that drinking water is at risk.” 


Media Research Center;TNT’s ‘Rizzoli and Isles’ Demonizes Fracking. One of the comments to this post:

 Actually a lot of uninformed people watch shows like this.  Most will take as fact the science from shows like this and CSI etc.  Just one more way the left controlled media pushes blatantly false propaganda out to an extremely uninformed populace

They have been concerned and are watching the technology and its effects. 

Power Engineering: Fracking chemicals not harmful From 2011.

Experts: Drilling, fracking not harmful to health " "There has been nothing yet as a result of drilling activity that has adversely affected the environment or public health," Wheeling-Ohio County Health Department Administrator Howard Gamble said. "We do do water testing, but we have not yet seen anything different from either pre- or post-testing results."

"An official with the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection confirmed the state has seen no cases of water contamination from fracking."
