House Committee Demands Bergdahl Information From White House

 

. . . SAE member Levi Petit apologized Tuesday for leading a racist chant that got him expelled and SAE kicked off the OU campus. It drew White House attention. National SecurityAdvisor Susan Rice went on the Sunday talk shows and said Levi Petit served Sigma Alpha Epsilon with honor and distinction.

The U.S. Army annouced it will charge U.S. Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl with desertion despite the White House calling him a hero last May. The Obama administration traded five Taliban leaders in exchange for him. The government can't even effect a prisoner swap without running up an eighty percent deficit. . . Comedian Argus Hamilton

 "The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, chaired by Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, sent a letter to the White House Thursday asking for all “documents and information related to the decision to transfer the five Taliban members for Sgt. [Bowe] Bergdahl.”

"Addressed to White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, the letter refers to Bergdahl’s release last year in exchange for five individuals held by the U.S. government at Guantanamo Bay. Then a private, Bergdahl went missing from his base in 2009. He was formally charged with desertion earlier this week.

 

Honoring Battles, Honoring the Fallen, Something Mayor Emanuel Does Not Understand

  Desperate Rahm suggests renaming airport after Obama   "Rahm Emanuel is in a fight for his political life, facing a tough re-election election vote on April 7, and running against Jesus “Chuy” Garcia in a city with a large and growing Hispanic population. That is probably the reason he would suggest renaming one of two Chicago airports – Midway and O’Hare – after Barack Obama. The city’s substantial black vote is, after all, up for grabs." . . . Full article.

"As a Chicagoan, it's not my preferable airport, but it bears a name that many don't know... Butch O'Hare.

"In 1942, LtCdr Edward Henry "Butch" O'Hare became the first naval ace of WWII when he destroyed 8 bombers headed for his carrier, USS Lexington, in the Pacific.  He was the first sailor to receive the Medal of Honor during WWII.  The MoH citation reads in part:

"For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in aerial combat, at grave risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty, as section leader and pilot of Fighting Squadron 3 on 20 February 1942. Having lost the assistance of his teammates, Lt. O'Hare interposed his plane between his ship and an advancing enemy formation of 9 attacking twin-engine heavy bombers. Without hesitation, alone and unaided, he repeatedly attacked this enemy formation, at close range in the face of intense combined machinegun and cannon fire. Despite this concentrated opposition, Lt. O'Hare, by his gallant and courageous action, his extremely skillful marksmanship in making the most of every shot of his limited amount of ammunition, shot down 5 enemy bombers and severely damaged a sixth before they reached the bomb release point. As a result of his gallant action--one of the most daring, if not the most daring, single action in the history of combat aviation--he undoubtedly saved his carrier from serious damage." . . .

. . . "And this politician *spit* wants to rename it Obama International Airport.

Could Mayor Rahm Emanuel be thinking about renaming Chicago’s airports, perhaps after President Barack Obama?

 . . .
For now, Mayor Emmanuel reconsidered:

"Mayor Emanuel quickly backtracked on talking about renaming O'Hare or Midway (named in honor of the WWII naval battle)."
 . . .
"You know what the real mistake is, Mr Mayor?  That you and your friends in the administration don't understand why the names O'Hare or Midway should never be changed.  You worry more about the sacrifices made to get votes than the sacrifices made to keep to the world safe."

Evidence indicated Lubitz was NOT a Muslim

 

TW is searching for corroboration to the Gateway Pundit's claim at the bottom:
Germanwings co-pilot had medical note for day of crash, hid illness, officials say

Germanwings crash: Andreas Lubitz ‘received treatment for depression’

Andreas Lubitz: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

No Official Confirmation That Killer Co-Pilot Of Germanwings Airbus Was A Muslim Convert  . . . “Following a search of Lubitz’s Dusseldorf apartment, investigators today revealed they had found old torn-up sick leave notes, current ones and one issued for the day of the disaster.”

The Daily Mail report on the air disaster adds that investigators said they have not found a suicide note nor any evidence of a political or religious motivation.
However, there are reports circulating in non-mainstream German news outlets that Andreas Lubitz was a Muslim convert who was trained in a radicalized mosque and may have been acting under orders from Islamic handlers when he set his aircraft on a death course.

The claim that Lubitz was a Muslim convert that needs to be corroborated. As of right now all evidence is that he was not a Muslim, even though he was praised as a martyr by some Muslims :
 

The Gateway Pundit    "GERMAN REPORT —HE WAS RADICALIZED!

GERMAN CO-PILOT WAS MUSLIM CONVERT–
— STAYED AT Bremen Mosque

"Police have reportedly found an “item of significance” at the apartment of the co-pilot who crashed the Germanwing passenger plane into the Alps this week.
"The item was NOT a suicide note." . . . 

A German news website claims Andreas Lubitz was a Muslim convert.
Speisa.com reported:

According to Michael Mannheimer, a writer for German PI-News, Germany now has its own 9/11, thanks to the convert to Islam, Andreas Lubitz.
Translation from German:
All evidence indicates that the copilot of Airbus machine in his six-months break during his training as a pilot in Germanwings, converted to Islam and subsequently either by the order of “radical”, ie. devout Muslims , or received the order from the book of terror, the Quran, on his own accord decided to carry out this mass murder. As a radical mosque in Bremen is in the center of the investigation, in which the convert was staying often, it can be assumed that he – as Mohammed Atta, in the attack against New York – received his instructions directly from the immediate vicinity of the mosque.

Here Are The Words Hillary’s Supporters Won’t Let You Say

The 13 words you can’t write about Hillary Clinton anymore

 . . . "And some of these words should indeed be reined in -- if not necessarily for the reason this group wants."  . . .  Well, this IS the liberal Washington Post, you know.

Daily Caller "Do you work in the media and have the gall to think that the entire Webster’s dictionary is at your disposal? Think again, you sexist.

"When it comes to reporting on Hillary Clinton, George Carlin’s “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television” have turned into “Twelve Words You Can Never Say About a Powerful Politician.”

Next comes the leftist intimidation:

“ 'We will be watching, reading, listening and protesting coded sexism,” the pro-Hillary group HRC Super Volunteers warned The New York Times’ Amy Chozick Wednesday.

"HRC Super Volunteers have been laying in wait for Clinton to announce her candidacy, with one organizer of the independent group boasting to colleagues that “our supervols tended to be more loyal to HRC than hired staff who worried about getting a job after the campaign. I think back to the staff party in Denver when me, Ahmed, and another top vol were the only ones with Hillary buttons.”

OBAMA TAKES ANOTHER STAB AT ISRAEL: Releases Declassified Nuclear Documents

Julie Prince

 

"It is no secret that Obama is not a fan of many things–including America and Israel. It’s baffling that an American President could be viewed as an enemy of the state much like a Ward Churchill or Howard Zinn.  A disciple of Saul Alinsky, Obama learned from the master of community organizing on how to manipulate a people so they won’t even know they’re being had until it’s already happened.

"His hatred for both the United States and Israel are deeply rooted; I believe going back to his childhood. Something so inherent in him when the seed was planted, it is part of him." . . .

The timing of this new revelation has revenge written all over it. Tensions were already high long before Netanyahu’s speech to Congress, but after that it has become a game of cat and mouse — with Israel being the mouse and Obama being the only player. The document goes into great detail of how Israel is, “developing the kind of codes which will enable them to make hydrogen bombs. That is, codes which detail fission and fusion processes on a microscopic and macroscopic level.”

 

BOLD: NFL Player’s Facebook Prayer About ISIS Persecution of Christians Goes VIRAL

 

Doug Giles' Clash Daily   "Benjamin Watson, professional football player for the New Orleans Saints, posted this powerful and prophetic prayer on his Facebook page that is going viral:"
 " The images keep flooding our timelines and news feeds. Men being burned alive or beheaded by masked assassins. Stories of families on the run, fleeing their homes while they are pillaged and burned. Their testimonies hold a familiar chord. “Convert, Pay or Die!”. . .  Read more.

Obama has locked us all out of this nation's cockpit

Hope n'Change

http://hopenchangecartoons.blogspot.com/

. . . "Lubitz, in his single-minded madness, couldn't be stopped because anyone who could change the jet's disastrous course was locked out.
"It's hard to imagine the growing feelings of fear and helplessness that the passengers felt as the unforgiving landscape rushed up to meet them. Hard - but not impossible.
"Because America is in trouble. We feel the descent in the pits of our stomachs. We hear the shake and rattle of structures stressed beyond their limits. We don't know where we're going anymore, but do know it isn't good. And above all, we feel helpless because Barack Obama has locked us out.
"He locked the American people out of his decision to seize the national healthcare system. Locked us out when we wanted to know why the IRS was attacking conservatives. He locked us out of having a say in his decision to tear up our immigration laws, and to give over a trillion dollars in benefits to those who broke those laws." . . . by Stilton Jarlsberg, creator of Hopen'Change

Sexing & texting with the Clintons

 

 WND  "Joe Biden says really stupid things nearly every time he opens his yap. But that’s small potatoes compared to the crimes and sins of the Clintons. What is truly remarkable about this couple is that, outside of Arkansas, most people had never heard of them prior to 1992.

"Over the course of 23 years, they have been involved in one scandal after another. A short stroll down memory lane will remind us of Whitewater; Filegate; Travelgate; accepting campaign contributions from China; renting out the Lincoln Bedroom to political supporters; a presidential pardon to fugitive Marc Rich; sex scandals involving Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, Juanita Broaddrick, Gennifer Flowers and Monica Lewinsky; a cozy relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein; perjury; impeachment; disbarment; accepting contributions from foreign nations while serving as secretary of state; covering up the Benghazi massacre; and now ignoring legal and ethical sanctions involving the use of unauthorized email accounts.

 

"By any measure, this adds up to so much more than critical mass that if someone who had been in a coma for the past quarter century had awakened to this laundry list of crimes and misdemeanors, he would be legitimately shocked to learn that not only are the transgressors not in Leavenworth, but one of them is likely to run for president 20 months from now, and will receive upwards of 65 million votes." . . .

Tom Cotton, Tragic Hero

 Despite the value of his open letter, he will become Obama’s scapegoat when the Iran negotiations inevitably fail.

Victor Davis Hanson

 

. . . "Secretary of State John Kerry is the most outraged of Cotton’s critics — and has the most notorious record of trying to undermine presidential foreign policy.
"As a freshman senator, Kerry traveled to Nicaragua to show solidarity with “Comandante” Daniel Ortega — as a way of opposing then-president Reagan’s efforts to help the Contras in their resistance to the Sandinista Communist takeover. Two other Democrats, Senator Tom Harkin and House speaker Jim Wright, also met with Ortega.
 
"Most unfortunate was House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s disastrous 2007 trip to Syria to meet with thuggish president Bashar al-Assad. At the time of their meeting, Assad was offering assistance to radical Islamic groups that were attacking U.S. troops in Iraq.
"Cotton and the senators, in contrast, never traveled to hostile territory, never met with America’s enemies, and never wrote warm personal letters to thugs.
"But was the Cotton letter a political “blunder”?
"Not really.
. . .
  "But Cotton will endure plenty of blame if Iranian negotiators walk away in fury because a skeptical U.S. Senate would have to approve any sweetheart deal that they pulled over on Obama.
"In other words, Cotton is not a blunderer — he is a classic lose/lose tragic hero."

 

Germanwings co-pilot Andreas Lubitz praised on Facebook: ‘Our holy martyr Lubitz died for our prophet’

Pamela Geller

. . . "Robin said the conversation between the two pilots before the captain left the cockpit started normally but that Lubitz’s replies became “laconic” as they started readying what would have been the normal descent to the airport of Duesseldorf.

“His responses become very brief. There is no proper exchange as such,” he said. It was not clear why the captain had left the cockpit but it was probably to use the toilet, he said.

Robin said the family of the co-pilot had arrived in France for a tribute alongside other those of the victims but was being kept apart from the others.

“SMASH THE DOOR DOWN”

 

. . . "The New York Times cited an unnamed investigator as saying the recording shed insight into the moment when it dawned on the captain that he had been shut out of the cockpit."
