"9/11 should NOT be a day for a Million Muslim March, NO! My blood boils at the thought of this! My heart hurts for all the 9/11 families who lost their loved ones on 9/11! If we as Americans allow these Million Muslims to march for their “rights” on this most sacred day without an appropriate action, then we allow these families and all who have sacrificed to be brutalized again!....

Muslims to hold protest march on DC . . . on September 11th!

I got him! Bush couldn't do it, but I did!
Hope n' Change "According to a video interview with presidential body man and alleged "friend with benefits," Reggie Love, Barack Obama left the situation room during the Seal Team Six raid on Bin Laden's compound, preferring to play Spades. For hours.
"Despite his reelection claims that he pretty much personally put a high hot one through Bin Laden's eyehole, Barry actually told Love " I’m not going to be down there, I can’t watch this entire thing." Nope, not when there are card games to be played."

...."So if President Obama "was this bored by the Bin Laden mission, imagine his complete indifference to a little thing like Benghazi. There are still no reports whatsoever about what the hell he was doing while Americans were dying, although we do know from the tragic results that it was nothing even remotely presidential."....

George Will offers a pithy analysis of Obama’s Nixonian tendencies here:"
Obama’s unconstitutional steps worse than Nixon’s "President Obama’s increasingly grandiose claims for presidential power are inversely proportional to his shriveling presidency. Desperation fuels arrogance as, barely 200 days into the 1,462 days of his second term, his pantry of excuses for failure is bare, his domestic agenda is nonexistent and his foreign policy of empty rhetorical deadlines and red lines is floundering. And at last week’s news conference he offered inconvenience as a justification for illegality."...
....
"Serving as props in the scripted charade of White House news conferences, journalists did not ask the pertinent question: “Where does the Constitution confer upon presidents the ‘executive authority’ to ignore the separation of powers by revising laws?” The question could have elicited an Obama rarity: brevity. Because there is no such authority.".... (Emphasis added, TD)
"President Obama insists that he’s not a dictator or a king, but if Congress won’t act he will. How’s that work? He picks and chooses the laws he likes. In a speech last week he claimed the right to unilaterally “tweak” the Affordable Care Act because this is not a “normal political environment” – meaning Congress won’t do what he wants.
"Funny, he didn’t have any trouble getting Congress’s cooperateration when they tweaked the law to subsidize the health care government workers must now buy through the exchanges. No one else earning$175,000 gets a subsidy.George Will offers a pithy analysis of Obama’s Nixonian tendencies here:"

Obama's Quality of Leadership
American Thinker "Egypt is vital strategically to U.S. interests and security in the Middle East. Yet the United States stands by, powerless, as mayhem reigns there and instability simmers dangerously elsewhere. What has happened to our influence in the world? A clue can be found in President Barack Obama's own words, his recent response to Russia's grant of asylum to NSA-leaker Edward Snowden:"....

"Instead, we have a president whose attitude in a crisis seems to be one of pettiness, detachment and petulance."
There's that word, "petulant" again.

...."And our enemies? Leaders like Vladimir Putin are not beguiled by charisma. Obama's promised "Russian reset," now a shambles, was always a fantasy, a delusion. It is not difficult to imagine the Russian president, perhaps while out hunting bear, chuckling in amazement at the weakness of the ostensible "Leader of the Free World." Amazement that is sadly echoed around the world."

Oversight Putsch: President Obama Fired Nearly All Members On Key Intelligence Advisory Board
Atlas Shrugs "Once again, President Obama's contempt and disdain for the American people is glaring, this time in his claims that he had a serious revamp of the NSA's surveillance activity in his priorities before the Snowden leaks happened. Another big fat lie. He was ramping up the spying, while cutting back on the oversight and review.
"The more authoritarian the President is, the more sycophantic the enemedia is around this cult figure. "

"Hamilton's ouster is particularly interesting, given that just a month ago, he wrote an oped piece about how the NSA's surveillance efforts have gone too far. Seems like he'd be handy to have on this committee reviewing the NSA surveillance, no?"....

On school choice, Damon's actions speak louder than words
Orange County Register "Matt Damon, the most outspoken celebrity supporter of public schools and teachers unions, is moving to Los Angeles and enrolling his four children in private schools.
"Damon told Britain's The Guardian, which broke the Edward Snowden/NSA story (apparently, American journalism has been outsourced overseas), "Sending our kids in my family to private school was a big, big deal. And it was a giant family discussion. But it was a circular conversation, really, because ultimately we don't have a choice."
"Actually, he has money and can send his kids to school anywhere, so he does have a choice. Damon wants to deny the rest of America school choice by opposing the voucher system."

Booby trap! Islamic breast bomb threat at Heathrow airport
By Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs "All kidding aside, how is the Obama administration and the TSA going to make us pay? Clearly, these are Muslim women but we can't profile (it might offend Muslims and that would violate the sharia.)
"So now what? Can we expect our daughters, sisters, wives to be felt up and sexually haraassed by goons and maroons? Whatever idiotic response is instituted, rest assured the actual enemy, the jihadic motive will remain sacrosanct. The sanction of the victim."

Barack the Lawgiver; Obama sees the Constitution’s separation of powers as a quaint anachronism.
"That was then. On Monday, Attorney General Eric Holder, a liberal in a hurry, ordered all U.S. attorneys to simply stop charging nonviolent, non-gang-related drug defendants with crimes that, while fitting the offense, carry mandatory sentences. Find some lesser, non-triggering charge. How might you do that? Withhold evidence — e.g., about the amount of dope involved."....

What You Might Not Know About Barack Obama
"Photo of our royal family, His Highness Barack Obama* and Michelle Antoinette Now that Congress and the Supreme Court of the United States have been finally dispatched, we have comfortably settled into a monarchy. Mr. Obama doesn’t have to deal with a big, messy, tough democracy any longer and he no longer has to envy the Chinese who don’t have a Congress to deal with. Mr. Obama has done a fine job of ignoring Congress when they refuse to do what he wants. ‘They have to do their work,’ he says.

Obama Foreign Policy: Speak Softly and Carry No Stick
"As Egypt descends into chaos, President Obama is facing increasing criticism that an "incoherent" policy toward the country -- much like U.S. policy toward Syria -- is putting U.S. money and influence on the line without a clear end-game."
In fairness, what else can Obama do given the wide range of opinions given by people who know foreign policy? I must say that the overthrow of Morsi was very much in the interests of the US and Israel, but that may be by lucky accident; Obama policies rarely have US interests in mind but rather those of the politically correct left.
" I think Obama -- I don't say this often -- I think he got it right today in terms of threading the needle." and....
"I would say anything that John McCain and Rand Paul agree on, like cutting off aid, has to be wrong."
Foreign Policy.com Speak Softly and Carry No Stick; Welcome to the Obama Doctrine in Egypt. ... "At the same time, it's just as absurd to imagine that a suspension of the $1.5 billion a year in U.S. aid, or the threat of it, would have any effect on Egypt's new military rulers. They have waded hip-deep in blood; they won't retrace their steps because Washington is outraged."
Hillary the Socialist
Dick Morris "Why did Hillary propose to give every newborn baby a $5,000 savings bond? Because Hillary is as close to a European Socialist as we have in this country. She wants government to help the poor and soak the rich. To do that, she needs the votes of the middle class. So she wants the same system they have in Germany and France where everybody gets welfare, so they all vote to keep the big spenders and big taxers in power. And nobody can cut the benefits either, just like you can’t cut social security, because the middle class is too strong politically to get away with it. And by giving everyone money, she gets everyone’s votes. Its her plan. So watch out."
Morris worked on the Clinton campaign, so he should know.
