Why Did Obama Apologize For Pentagon's Strong Message To China?

 Investors Business Daily

. . . "Guess what happened? Obama's Pentagon threw the Air Force crew under the landing gear. It apologized to China for the B-52 flight. Seriously.

"The Pentagon's sad story is that bad weather caused the giant bomber to drift off-course. Uh-huh. True, those eight-engine, strategic workhorses cover almost 10 miles a minute. But weather doesn't affect GPS.

"B-52s can deliver a standard or nuclear weapon to a specific city block anywhere in the world. And each has one crew member dedicated to position-monitoring.

"So even with oblivious Obama off golfing again in Hawaii, his minions apologized unnecessarily to a strategic competitor for doing what we said we'd do to oppose China's unlawful territorial claims.
Weak, feckless U.S. actions."

Thomas Lifson comments on the incident here: Obama's 'paper tiger' doctrine  . . . "Coming in the wake of Obama’s Syrian “red line” that was violated with no consequences, it teaches the lesson to aggressive foreign governments that U.S. threats are not to be feared, and that the U.S. will back down.

"This is a recipe for encouraging aggression against the U.S.  Until Obama leaves office, the U.S. is in a very dangerous situation, with aggression seen as without cost to our competitors."

5 Top Foreign Policy Flops of 2015  "President Obama stated in his year-end press conference that the most important events going on are the press overhyping the threat of terrorism and a screening of Star Wars at the White House."


"Here are some of the big news events that Obama must have missed over the past year.":

#5. America’s Ambiguous Voyage. . . 

#4. Tripped Up by the Refugee Tsunami. . . 

#3. Putin Plows into Syria. . . 

#2. Cozying up to the Castros. . .

Many may reject Hillary's Hispandering now, but in a short time it will all be forgotten

Hispandering Hillary

. . . "Too familiar in the wrong way to wise Hispanics. Throwing in some Spanish words on the site, white skin privileged, wealthy, bleached blonde, highly educated Hillary condescendingly explains to potential voters from Spanish speaking countries she's just like their grandmother.  Except she isn't and her identity politics, targeted audience fought back hard on twitter, contemptuously labeling her attempt Hispandering and forcefully insisting #Not My Abuela or, in Spanish, #Not Mi Abuela. " . . .

One example:
Ben Walters ‏@TheBenWalters  2d2 days ago
Reminder-- GOP has 2 Latinos and 3 fluent Spanish speakers. D's have phony politician who gave us the term #Hispandering. #NotMyAbuela

Hillary Clinton’s ‘Secret Weapon’ Could Escalate Campaign Rhetoric


WSJ
Former President Bill Clinton in Ames, Iowa, last month, where his wife, Hillary Clinton, was giving a speech at the Central Iowa Democrats Fall Barbecue.
Amazing how this man with his history of mistreating 
women can have so many of them adore him.
"A new and more combative phase of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign opens next month when she sends her husband out to stump for her in important early states.
"Waiting for him will be businessman Donald Trump, the Republican front-runner.
"The former president has been a low-key figure since Mrs. Clintonentered the race for the Democratic nomination in April, offering private advice and helping her raise money at closed-door fundraisers. In January, the campaign intends to showcase him in public forums in Iowa and New Hampshire, two states where the front-runner is locked in a tight race against Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.
"Speaking to supporters recently, Mrs. Clinton described her husband as a “secret weapon.' ” . . .

Well, Bill isn't universally adored, apparently.

Apparently some anti-Clinton people are as vindictive as the left. But the left is so much better at personal destruction.

From Obamagasm To Hillary Love, Liberal Media Outdid Itself In 2015

Michael Ramirez Cartoon

investors.com
L. BRENT BOZELL III AND TIM GRAHAM   . . . "Liberals would have you believe that they are far more nuanced and far less mean-spirited than the Trumps of the world. It's a good reason for unveiling our annual "Worst of the Worst" awards for the year's worst media outrages.


"Once again, a panel of esteemed judges in the conservative media has helped us identify the most ridiculous of the ridiculous.

"You decide which camp is more obnoxious.

"Bryant Gumbel won the "Damn Those Conservatives" Award for this tirade about the National Rifle Association in a Rolling Stone interview posted on Jan. 20:

" 'There are a few things I hate more than the NRA. I mean truly. I think they're pigs. I think they don't care about human life. I think they are a curse upon the American landscape."

"But it's conservatives that are the mean-spirited ones.

"Then there's MSNBC pundit Donny Deutsch on "Morning Joe," that alleged oasis of civil chatter over coffee. Deutsch won the "Hopeless Haters" Award for this March 23 commentary on presidential contender Ted Cruz:" . . .

No Peace or Goodwill


Cal Thomas  . . . "People speak of "the spirit of Christmas," or when observing some special act with which they approve or seek to inspire, refer to "the true meaning of Christmas." They are never asked what they mean by either.
"The true meaning of Christmas is this: God took on the form of a human to die in our place, paying for our sins, so that humans who receive Him might be forgiven and be with Him forever.
"You are free to reject that message and the One who delivered it, but what you are not free to do is to redefine or change the message into something that fits your own beliefs and choices.
"In "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" (part of his classic "The Chronicles of Narnia" series), C.S. Lewis writes of a frozen land ruled by a "White Witch," devoid of hope. In that world, it is "always winter, but never Christmas."
"It is a metaphor for a world that has rejected God and His redemptive power. It is a world where humans choose to live as they please, rather than be transformed, even renewed. It is this world in which we now live, full of mendacity, envy, greed, lust, anger, terrorism, war, political divisions and confusion. We have forgotten who we are, because we have forgotten Whose we are.
"It is these and so many other human deficiencies the Christ child came to reset. Like a gift under a tree, however, the transaction is not complete until the one for whom the gift is intended receives it. If anyone refuses a gift, the transaction is incomplete, its purpose thwarted. Does it matter that so many reject Him? Look around and consider the result." . . .

The Souls behind the Christmas Classics

Mary Claire Kendall


"Every year as we celebrate the birth of Christ, one time-honored tradition is that of sitting in the warmth of our homes and enjoying classic Hollywood films with friends and family, if not alone, as we savor the days of Christmas.
"These cinematic treasures help us appreciate the momentous reality of Christ becoming man because they exemplify, in many respects, the goodness and virtue he embodied, and which a Christian—“a bearer of Christ”—is called to live. Often this happens through characters such as George Bailey and Ebenezer Scrooge, in, respectively,It’s a Wonderful Life (1945) and A Christmas Carol, produced numerous times, including the 1938 and 1971 classics, starring Reginald Owens and Albert Finney, who exemplify our weak human nature and how, with grace, it is beautifully overcome.
"These Christmas films feature legends of Hollywood—many of whom I write about in Oasis: Conversion Stories of Hollywood Legends, including:" . . .

American Silliness Dec 24th, 2015

Here are some government approved songs you can sing with your kids at Christmas
. . . "Looking for family-friendly indoor activities? Have a push-up contest with the kids. They'll learn that being active is fun. #LetsMove— ChooseMyPlate.gov (@MyPlate) December 22, 2015" . . .
Bill Nye Outraged Nobody Blaming “Climate Change” For Warm Christmas Time Temperatures…

 Black Lives Matter Shaun King: Jesus depictions today further promote a white supremacist agenda   . . . "In Atlanta, I see them everywhere I go. Jesus as a blond-haired, blue-eyed baby and his blue-eyed supermodel mother are ubiquitous and done without even a slight hint of humor. It's preposterous. It would truly be no different from depicting Christopher Columbus as a dark-skinned African or Thomas Jefferson as a long-haired Latino. People actually look a certain way." . . .

 I hate to give King any credence, but to be honest with you, all the old masters did indeed paint the Apostles and Old Testament people looking like Western Europeans. One speaker from Chosen People Ministries pointed out that in the painting of the Last Supper, the only disciple who looked Jewish was Judas. TD

College campuses are a treasure trove of silliness. Cases in point:

 Oberlin students say cafeteria food is racist, protest leaders should be paid  Wouldn't you say their demands are racist?

Fine
Prof Wants Students to Say ‘Happy Federal Holiday’   "Terri Susan Fine wrote in “A Holiday Greeting That Applies to Everyone” that, “In our efforts to be inclusive, we show cultural insensitivity both by equating one major holiday with a minor holiday and failing to recognize that diversity includes those who celebrate neither holiday.” She notes that the typical greetings of “Merry Christmas” “Happy Chanukah” and even “Happy Holidays” only “cover most of the bases”."  More here.

 Mizzou Health Center Bans Christmas Decorations to Keep it a Safe Space  . . . "While Evens does acknowledge “this decision will be disappointing to some,” it is no less lamentable that the holiday cheer of employees must be silenced for the sake of students who may or may not actually be offended." . . .

 Prof: Not Acknowledging White Privilege Means You Believe in White Supremacy

 Planned Parenthood Says Hiding HIV From Sex Partners Is A ‘Right’
“ 'Sharing your HIV status is called disclosure. Your decision about whether to disclose may change with different people and situations. You have the right to decide if, when, and how to disclose your HIV status.' ”

Hillary Clinton’s Vulgarity Makes Trump Look Like Shakespeare!

Crybaby Hillary

Hillary plays the teary eyes and bullied cards, again  "Regardless, whether a slang word to be beaten badly, or a Yiddish term for a schlong, there is zero chance Hillary was actually offended or upset. Zero. SHE LIVES WITH BILL CLINTON. She has covered for Bill Clinton’s sexual antics and went after his female victims.
"Yet Hillary got teary eyed when talking about campaign bullying later that same day, an obvious reference to Trump’s comment.
"The excuse was a child’s statement about people making comments about her asthma behind her back. That child’s personal message was used as a political launching board for Hillary:" . . .
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/watch/clinton-important-to-stand-up-to-bullies-590378051524
Like a manipulative child who finds this works.

Legal Insurrection  "I was astonished that Hillary Clinton wept as she decried bullying, after Donald Trump’s used of the word “schlong”.
"A woman who is seeking the office of “Commander-in-Chief” should really show a little more intestinal fortitude.
"The act is laughable, because her own use of profanity is so notorious that there are whole books on the subject!
"A California friend, Bill Monroe, offers this example.
Hillary’s vulgar and nasty language is well documented. To directly quote her: ‘F**k off! It’s enough that I have to see you ****-kickers every day, I’m not going to talk to you too!! Just do your G*damn job and keep your mouth shut.’*
(From the book American Evita by Christopher Anderson, p. 90 – Hillary to her State Trooper bodyguards after one of them greeted her with “Good Morning.”)
"That is not the only tome that documents Clinton’s legendary temper. Another book, Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary Clinton, recounts an episode with Obama as the target of one of her grand tirades.
. . . “What I want for you to do is call off your f–king dogs, Barack!” Clinton allegedly barked at Obama, according to Klein’s account, which cited sources close to Clinton and Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett.
"Obama got off lightly compared to her husband, according to an episode described in a third book, The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House.
[Author Kate Andersen] Brower gave an interview with CNN in which she is laughing and smiling while telling the story of Hillary Clinton’s violent, bloody attack on her husband the President of the United States.
Apparently, spousal abuse is funny if committed by a feminist icon running for president." . . .
*Much of the above is commented on in the Snopes column titled, The HildaBeast

UK Daily Mail reported in 2014:  
. . . "White House deputy counsel Vince Foster, who committed suicide in June 1993,  was on the receiving end of a virulent verbal attack by Hillary.  She disagreed with a legal opinion he made and humiliated him in a meeting, stating he would never be more than a hick-town lawyer and wasn’t ready for the big time.‘The put-down that she gave him in that big meeting just pushed him over the edge’, Copeland says. She blamed Foster for all of the Clinton's problems and stated he had failed the couple.

Victor Davis Hanson on The Death of Gratitude

Cavuto asks selfish, protesting college kid ‘who’s gonna pay for it?’   Video at the link.

"Today's average student is eager to find something offensive. Rarely does he or she wonder who built the chic resident halls, who designed the upscale student union, or who donated to the college endowment to subsidize the numerous free things on campus."
 Victor Davis Hanson  . . . "Instead, gratitude is proof of humility and offers perspective. It is an appreciation for others, often now dead, who have helped to make us what we are. Without it, we are narcissists and self-absorbed amnesiacs.
Unfortunately, our modern "me" generation has forgotten gratitude and replaced it with the art of victimization. Contemporary Americans prefer blaming others -- parents, ancestors, their country, the world in general -- for their own unhappiness while patting themselves on the back for anything that goes well.
"Nowhere is the death of gratitude more acute than at our elite universities.
"Today's students hunt for micro-aggressions, slights that register only on their hypersensitive Richter scales of victimization. They pout over mean Halloween costumes, inauthentic ethnic food or politically incorrect literature assignments. They are angry even at mute statues and century-old names chiseled on the arches of their ivy-covered halls." . . .
