Incompetent...or insidious?

http://terrellaftermath.com/

 

First off, in 2013 Salon Magazine called stories of this President's incompetence "a myth".  "Excuse me if I sit out this round of hyperventilating over President Obama’s alleged “incompetence” on matters ranging from the Affordable Care Act roll out to the NSA spying scandal. Because we just played this game last spring." ...

 

Krauthammer: Netanyahu Remarks Showcase Obama's 'Incompetence'  30 Oct 2014

Kafkaesque Governance ; "Increasingly, the federal government relies on arbitrary decisions rather than actual laws."

 "Take the Affordable Care Act. When then–House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters that “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it,” it was not a one-off comment. Then came the exemptions, and then more exemptions. Along the way, the Obama administration dealt in back rooms, fumbled on religious liberty, and “suspended indefinitely” the long-term-care program that was projected to bring in $86 billion over its first decade — helping supporters claim the ACA would be a budget-saver — before losing money indefinitely."

‘Does Obama Have an Adult Relationship with the Truth?’  "He was allowed to get away with that gigantic load of BS. I rather enjoyed watching him squirm while being (at least) questioned about an obvious lie – but watching the media allow him to get away with it – instead of raising the firestorm of disapproval his countless campaign lies deserved – was decidedly less enjoyable.]"

No room at White House meeting for Ferguson PD, but guy named 'T-Dubb-O' advises POTUS on police-'community' relations   "Priorities, priorities.  The president who promised to “bring us together” has thrown in his lot with racial agitator Al Sharpton (with blood on his hands from Freddy’s Fashion Mart) and rap artists like “T-Dubb-O,” who offered this policy insight:" ...   Read on...

White House unable to list qualifications of Obama's choice for U.S. ambassador to Hungary (but she does produce The Bold and The Beautiful)

"Pressed to explain Bell's qualifications for the diplomatic position, the president's spokesman was unable to speak in specifics this afternoon, eventually citing her experience in the private sector as the reason she was selected." ...

Administration Exploits Ferguson to Undermine Race Relations and Rule of Law  ... "Isn't President Obama, by depicting Brown as a victim, undermining the grand jury in this case specifically and law enforcement and the justice system in general? Isn't he fomenting further distrust between the black community and law enforcement when it isn't warranted in this case? By taking this position, isn't he exacerbating racial tensions rather than helping to heal them?"

 

 

When the Law Is a Drag

Victor Davis Hanson

"In the Ferguson disaster, the law was the greatest casualty. Civilization cannot long work if youths strong-arm shop owners and take what they want. Or walk down the middle of highways high on illicit drugs. Or attack police officers and seek to grab their weapons. Or fail to obey an officer’s command to halt. Or deliberately give false testimonies to authorities. Or riot, burn, and loot. Or, in the more abstract sense, simply ignore the legal findings of a grand jury; or, in critical legal theory fashion, seek to dismiss the authority of the law because it is not deemed useful to some preconceived theory of social justice. Do that and society crumbles."

Will 'Lost' IRS Emails Reveal A Corrupt White House?

IBD Editorial   ... "We recently noted how former White House senior economics adviser Austan Goolsbee had been identified as the official who had told reporters "on background" that the Koch brothers "do not pay corporate income tax" through their company, Koch Industries.

 

"Goolsbee could not have made his claim without access to the Kochs' private tax data, something a White House official is not supposed to have." ...Read More At Investor's Business Daily:

Not to worry, it seems that as many as 30,000 emails have now been recovered by the IRS inspector general.

... "House and Senate committees are seeking the emails to investigate the role the former head of tax exempt organizations played in the targeting of tea party and conservative groups leading up to the 2012 election, and whether she was working with Obama administration officials to single them out." ... 

 

Judicial Watch: IRS “did not undertake any significant efforts to obtain” missing Lerner emails   "Democrats who had hoped for at least a week to sleep off their election night hangovers are getting no rest after the latest disclosure of court documents by advocacy group Judicial Watch.

"Judicial Watch has spent a great deal of time and resources seeking information about the IRS targeting of conservative groups."

JW v IRS 01559 def oppo

Two Americas

If America is even today at fault for slavery, then the present Democrat Party is still to be considered  the founder of the Ku Klux Klan.

American Thinker   "Why did it take until 100 years after the Civil War, until 1964, to pass a Civil Rights Act? Because the Democratic Party would not take its boot off the neck of the black man until Martin Luther King made the black vote a political force. Dedicated to being in power above all else, the Democrats had to make a U-turn on their race policy in the 1960s and join the Republicans in passing the Civil Rights Act because they realized that after the black vote was counted, they were not going to win any more national elections without it.

"But there was a problem. How was the Democratic Party going to overcome its deplorable record on race? It was the party of slavery, segregation, lynching, and the Klan." ...
...

"The black family had withstood 250 years of slavery and 100 years of Jim Crow, but was destroyed by 50 years of Liberalism."

"Let’s compare the cultural attributes of Enterprise America and Welfare America."

Enterprise America	Welfare America
Republican Party	Democratic Party
Stay in school	School unimportant – drop out
Get by contributing	Get by demanding
Selling: identifying customer needs, making yourself and your product attractive to a customer	In your face: intimidating those around you
Achievement	Achievement is “privilege”
Personal responsibility	Society’s fault
Historic success – example of America to the world	Historic failure – socialist societies everywhere
Building wealth	Supported by builders of wealth
Making personal and family history	Drifting
Supporting a strong community	No stake in community; gang as community

... "And when rage flares up, what happens? Welfare America attacks Enterprise America. Businesses with no relationship to the altercation are burned down because they are not seen as an authentic part of the community." ...

Comment made in 2012 about Reginald Denny that is again relevant vis a vis Ferguson

Back in 2012 The Tunnel Dweller posted this comment below to the article linked to here  2002 Interview: Reginald Denny Looks Back on the LA Riots, Get-Well Cards

But what business would ever risk millions of dollars to open in an area of town filled with many violent people who would burn them out in a heartbeat? All it would take is one Al Sharpton speech or a jury decision they disliked and everything the business had would be stripped by looters claiming they "wanted justice".

What business would send their white employees into an area where they would be violently "racially profiled" the way Reginald Denny was and have a Maxine Waters say they had it coming?

Al Sharpton, where are you? Driver brutally murdered by hammer-wielding teens in St. Louis

"Will the feds investigate this interracial attack? Will it become a national cause?"

 ... "Begic’s wife of six months, Arijana said, ‘He didn’t deserve this. The last thing he did before he actually died was pull me out of the way and put himself in front of me, basically giving up his life for me.”

"The Bosnian community held a spontaneous protest last night in response to the brutal murder of Begic, demanding more police action.

“ 'The whole idea of standing out in the street is to get our attention, you’ve got my attention,” Police Chief Dotson told protesters."... 

Witness 10 proves Darren Wilson had a reasonable belief he needed to shoot

The Volokh Conspiracy  "Missouri law allows a person to use deadly force defending himself when he has a “reasonable belief” he needs to use deadly force.  The law goes on to define a reasonable belief as one based on “grounds that could lead a reasonable person in the same situation to the same belief.”  Unsurprisingly, Officer Darren Wilson testified to the grand jury that he reasonably believed he needed to use deadly force to defend himself against Michael Brown.  But the clinching argument on this point is that other reasonable people — i.e., some credible eyewitnesses — agreed with Wilson." ...Paul Cassell

British Bishop Wants Prince Charles to Surrender to Islam

Shoebat via IOTWReport   "There are plenty of Muslims in Great Britain who are pushing for the inclusion of Islam into British society. They don’t need any help from British political and religious authorities but they sure are getting it."

 

"The latest example comes from the Daily Mail, which quotes a top bishop who says the Qur’an should be read at the coronation of Prince Charles:

Prince Charles’s coronation service should be opened with a reading from the Koran, a senior Church of England bishop said yesterday.
The gesture would be a ‘creative act of accommodation’ to make Muslims feel ‘embraced’ by the nation, Lord Harries of Pentregarth said.
But critics attacked the idea, accusing the Church of ‘losing confidence’ in its own institutions and traditions.
Lord Harries, a former Bishop of Oxford and a leading CofE liberal thinker, said he was sure Charles’s coronation would give scope to leaders of non-Christian religions to give their blessing to the new King......

Dave Barry’s 2014 Holiday Gift Guide (Oops, I meant CHRISTMAS)

Miami Herald 
"The holidays are a super-busy time of year, and it’s too easy, with all the hustle and bustle, to forget about what this season is really all about. So we will remind you: It’s about purchasing high-tech consumer devices at retail.
"This is a tradition that dates back to the Nativity, as we can see in this dialogue among the Three Kings, taken verbatim from the Bible:
"FIRST KING: OK, we just have to follow that star, and it will guide us.
"SECOND KING: Really? That seems kind of vague.

"THIRD KING: Why don’t I get directions from this new technological device I bought at retail?

"FIRST KING: What is it?
"THIRD KING: It’s a primitive GPS, powered by olive oil.
"SECOND KING: What does “GPS” stand for?
"THIRD KING: I have no idea. But it has turn-by-turn directions! 

"Listen."
"GPS: Turn left at the Sphinx.
"FIRST KING: The Sphinx?
"SECOND KING: Apparently it thinks we’re in Egypt.
"FIRST KING: OK, like I said, we follow the star.

"THIRD KING: I’m glad I bought the service agreement.

 Black Males: Murder / Attempted Murder Of White Police Officers
*Very informative article, but the underlying message seems to condemn the integration of the 60s, a message I fervently disagree with. I feel the social influences - many because of liberal policies - have had much more to do with this that integration. I never want to go back to those shameful days when blacks had to take the leftovers of society that were not claimed by whites. However I utterly condemn the racist violence that the left hopes to benefit from; demagogues such as Sharpton and Jackson being the role models for such disgusting business. The Tunnel Dweller.

   Deceased = 3

Obama Putting at Risk “What’s Best About America”
(Washington, DC)—“As families gather to celebrate the American miracle, many are troubled and in disbelief this Thanksgiving because the President of the United States has “gone rogue” and is abetted by a compliant media,” Mike Flynn, spokesman of Conservative War Chest said announcing the new 2-minute television ad. “Just weeks ago, millions of Americans voted for a new direction in this country. Unfortunately, the President has chosen to slip the surly bonds of politics and ignore the voters,” Flynn added.
