Only Americans Fear Obama

Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel
William L. Gensert  "To paraphrase Lincoln, it is better to shut up and be thought weak than to open your mouth and prove it.  Someone should tell Barry.  Every time his mouth writes a check his butt won’t cash, he weakens America and makes the world a much more dangerous place for everyone.  Does anyone really think that if the Chinese attack Japan over the Senkaku Islands, Obama, even though treaty-bound, will come to their aid?  If the Iranians declare they have a nuclear weapon, will Obama do one damn thing?"   Emphasis mine, TD
....
"Other countries see this and understand.  There is no point in not arming to the hilt.  You can see it now in Southeast Asia where there is a mini-arms race in the face of Chinese aggression."

Condi Rice Sums Up the Democrat Party in 75 Words

Kerry and the left vs. Sarah Palin and the right on Russia: can we do the last two elections over again?

Below: What a difference a month makes.

Argus Hamilton quote as is this next one:

"The New Republic admitted Tuesday that Sarah Palin was right when she predicted six years ago that Obama's foreign policy would result in Putin invading Ukraine. She has been hounded by reporters all week. They all want to know who she likes in the Kentucky Derby."

 
"It was actually comedian Tina Fey, who was impersonating Ms. Palin on Saturday Night Live, who uttered the line that is now widely attributed to the former Alaska governor.
"The basis for this line comes from a September 2008 interview with ABC News's Charles Gibson, who asked Palin what insights she had from her state being so close to Russia. She responded: "They're our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.' "   Emphasis mine, TD. This info will not matter to news organizations with the letters NBC in their name.
 
Good news – Russia, China expanding their militaries   "Predictably, official commentary here stresses that China is a peace-loving nation with no aggressive intentions. But Beijing has also signaled its ambitions to be the power that holds the ring in the western Pacific, and those ambitions have been spelled out, arguably clearer than ever before, in a direct challenge to US military preeminence."  The Iron Curtain- Democrat Axis.

Look What Arianna Huffington Said Would Happen if Romney Was Elected

From Twitchy:
"Perfect.
"The list of those who warned that Mitt Romney’s “antiquated” opinion about Russia remaining a foe to the U.S. would harm relations between the two countries continues to grow and grow."

REMINDER: Obama and Democrats LIED to the Entire Country About ObamaCare

American Glob  "Democrats are going on national news programs and claiming that Republicans are lying about ObamaCare. When I saw this exchange on Greta Van Susteren’s show, I swore at the the TV.
 
"Loudly.
 
"Have Democrats forgotten that Obama told the biggest ObamaCare lie of all? Does if you like your plan, you can keep your plan ring a bell?
 
"But, but, but… THE KOCH BROTHERS…"
 

 
"Democrats must be reminded of this every single time they say Republicans are lying about ObamaCare.
 
"THEY lied about ObamaCare.
 
"OBAMA lied about ObamaCare.
 
"Their allies in media lied about ObamaCare.
 
"This has NOTHING to do with the Koch brothers."

Well, the left has George Soros: Soros Money Linked To Scrapped FCC Study That Would Have Put Government Monitors In Newsrooms…
"The Washington Examiner’s Byron York said on “Fox and Friends” Wednesday that the journalism schools involved with the FCC’s study were both recipients of large sums from the liberal Soros." ... 

Crimea River

 
"It's pointless to pay attention to foreign policy when a Democrat is president, unless you enjoy having your stomach in a knot. As long as a Democrat sits in the White House, America will be repeatedly humiliated, the world will become a much more dangerous place -- and there's absolutely nothing anybody can do about it. (Though this information might come in handy when voting for president, America!)"
....
"A few short years into Obama's presidency -- and al-Qaida is back! For purely political reasons, as soon as he became president, Obama removed every last troop from Iraq, despite there being Americans troops deployed in dozens of countries around the world.
 
"In 2004, nearly 100 soldiers, mostly Marines, died in the battle to take Fallujah from al-Qaida. Today, al-Qaida's black flag flies above Fallujah.
Bush won the war, and Obama gave it back."

Angry Atheist Sues to Take Down Peace Cross – a WW I Memorial

WW I Cross
 
"Christian-haters now want to eliminate War Memorials that have no religious inscriptions simply for being in the shape of a cross. The Atheists at The American Humanist Association are suing to have the Peace Cross removed from a regional park in Bladensburg, Md. though it has no religious inscriptions of any kind.
"Rewriting our history is worthy of a Bolshevik empire but that is what a wormy-tongued Humanist named Roy Speckhardt hopes to do.
"They claim that the “massive Christian cross” is an unconstitutional endorsement of a religion by government. The structure is a war memorial, not a religious monument and it is historical."

Video: DNC attendees can’t name a single Hillary accomplishment

Hot Air  "A clever rejoinder from CNS to the “Ready for Hillary” crowd: What is it, exactly, that you’re ready for? Lest you think they’re cherry-picking the least articulate Democrats they ran into, have a look at this new data from Pew. Alex Seitz-Wald, citing other data from the same poll, frets that Benghazi is more of a liability for Hillary than liberals think because it topped the list of her biggest negatives at 15 percent. Is that really her biggest liability, though? Behold:"....
 


"The above photo is obviously going to haunt Pant Suits in 2016 (along with a million other things), looks like she’s doing some early damage control."

The Democrat military


From two years ago. Two. 'Where are My Carriers?'  
"I think you'll be very surprised. It's hard to avoid the conclusion that the U.S. is not in the game because the present Administration has chosen not to be. But it's also true that the steady shrinking of the U.S. Navy since 1992 has handed President Obama and the anti-war Democrats a perfect excuse for inaction.
 
"This explains Defense Secretary Robert Gates and senior military officers' controversial remarks last week about the difficulty of the U.S. intervening against Muammar Gaddafi's regime in Libya."
 
Speaking of carriers, this urban legend is going around that these carriers were moth-balled  by President Obama, but that is not true, according to Snopes. Their site tells us the carriers were simply docked for the Christmas holidays in 2012 to allow families to be together.

Although the Norfolk photograph was circulated in March 2013 as something snapped "the other day," it was actually taken in mid-December 2012, when many U.S. Navy ships of all types were briefly docked at a number of fleet concentration areas to facilitate the practice of giving ships' crews a chance to spend part of the holiday season with their families:
 
Flashback: Senator Obama pushed bill that helped destroy more than 15,000 TONS of ammunition, 400,000 small arms and 1,000 anti-aircraft missiles in Ukraine   "As a U.S. senator, Barack Obama won $48 million in federal funding to help Ukraine destroy thousands of tons of guns and ammunition – weapons which are now unavailable to the Ukrainian army as it faces down Russian President Vladimir Putin during his invasion of Crimea."

Obama calls for a more humble American foreign policy   " 'And part of what we have to navigate … is going to be our ability to help countries provide a voice for people who have previously been voiceless; to allow them to determine their own destiny, but to do it with some humility, recognizing that in each of these societies, we’re not going to be able to impose order," he said."

"Secretary of State John Kerry went on Meet the Press Sunday and chastised the Russians for breaking three different international treaties by seizing the Crimea from Ukraine. White House response was swift and angry. President Obama just threatened to unfriend Putin on Facebook."  Argus Hamilton

Many equally clear photos are at this link.
 
It was kinda fun to post this photo from this site and compare it with later ones of the same location. 
 
 
  Below, the first Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover:
Guys, this is just one of many swimsuit photos at this link.
 
Many thanks for these to former schoolmate from Garibaldi, Oregon, Bill Smith. Bill is another of many that I recall having seen playing cowboys and Indians around Garibaldi, but is now referred to as "Grandpa". TD
