Obama’s whitewashing of the Orlando massacre

Washington Times

"Of course, it is all part of Mr. Obama’s plan to exacerbate those very questions about where he was born and whether he is a closet Muslim — because that automatically turns even decent people into frothing lunatics for dabbling in such conspiracies and innuendo.

"His is the lowest, most crass and degrading cynicism and it permeates every action and every statement made by this White House.

"The first Clinton administration is already recorded in the history books for its debased, raunchy and utterly disgusting self-adulation and false promotion. The Obama White House is that — only on Viagra."  . . .

. . . "The Department of “Justice” scrubbed the name “Allah” from Mateen’s prayers and professions of allegiance to said “Allah,” along with the Islamic State and al Qaeda and all the rest of the savages out to kill gays, lesbians, Jews, Christians and basically anyone who is part of civilized society." . . .

"In a rare full-throated media campaign this week, Attorney General Loretta Lynch said  references to “Allah” would be removed so as not to “further this man’s propaganda.”

"But, mostly, it is yet another bizarre example of the president trying to protect and promote the religion of Islam, which — by the way — is having a bit of a public relations problem on its own these last few years.

"Throwing gays off rooftops, burning men alive in cages and drowning them will do right much to sully even the best reputations.

"So, in yet another effort to rehab the name of Islam, Mr. Obama erased references to “Allah” from 911 tapes because he did not want to “further this man’s propaganda.' ” . . .

Feminists Upset That Physical Standards For Marines Are Too Tough for Women

Once again, liberals breed mediocrity in everything they touch. Every professional force that stands between us and those who would do us harm is made inept by liberal social engineering. TD

Truth Revolt

"Radical feminists rejoiced with shouts of equality when all combat jobs were opened to women last December. Yet, now they're finding it frustrating that the physical standards to be a Marine are just too dang hard for women.

"Kathleen Wong writes about this at Mic.com, charging that the physical requirements "overwhelmingly weed out women:"

[T]he United States Marine Corps established a new set of physical standards designed to weed out anyone who isn't physically up to par for such a position.

The Marines, which voiced the loudest objections to Defense Secretary Ash Carter's decision, put into place a new plan designed to be more inclusive.

But instead of leveling the playing field, the new standards have generated some shockingly disparate results: Of the recruits who took the test, 86% of the women failed compared to 3% of men.

AMERICA'S REAL RACISTS; David Horowitz's "Progressive Racism" exposes them -- and names them.

Frontpage



"It's unlikely that you've ever heard of the late Oseola McCarty (1908-99), but David Horowitz will never forget her—nor how her life story served as a testament to the limitless possibilities that are open to all Americans, regardless of race, if they will simply refuse to view themselves as helpless victims of circumstance. McCarty was a black, uneducated, hardworking, longtime cleaning woman from Mississippi, and Horowitz reflects upon her in his new book, Progressive Racism. The author cites McCarty as a flesh-and-blood refutation of the progressive article-of-faith which maintains that because “America is saturated with racism and oppression,” nonwhite minorities “cannot compete unless the system is rigged in their favor.” “A black woman living in the most racist and poorest state in the union (almost half her life under segregation),” writes Horowitz, was able to earn, from her modest wages, “enough money washing other people's clothes to save $150,000 and give it away”—to a student scholarship program at the University of Southern Mississippi. “If Oseola McCarty can do that, what American black or white cannot?' ” . . .

HOW DOES IMMIGRATION REDUCE MASS SHOOTINGS?

"Why do we need this? How are our current immigration policies helping the people who already live here? How are they making our country better, stronger, safer?"  

Ann Coulter   "With the media frantically hiding the content of Donald Trump's terrorism speech from last week, he should respond to every question with the central point of that speech: How does this kind of immigration make our country better? How does it make the country safer? 

"Media: Show us your tax returns! 

"Trump: Show me how our immigration policies are good for the people who already live here. 

"Media: Tell us why you fired Corey Lewandowski! 

"Trump: Tell me how our immigration policies are making the country safer for the people who already live here. 

"Media: How are you going to match Hillary's corporate fundraising? 

"Trump: How are our immigration policies helping the people who already live here? 

"Sooner or later people will say, "That's a good question -- why is this necessary?" 

"When the Third World immigrants admitted under Sen. Teddy Kennedy's 1965 Immigration Act -- as well as their children -- commit mass murder, the government and media tell us it's a gun problem. Or it's "our" culture. Or it's "homophobia." Or we have to keep admitting millions of Muslims because otherwise the ones already here will REALLY hate us. 

"Isn't that extortion? We've already admitted millions of Muslim immigrants, but if we don't take in millions more, the ones we've admitted will go on killing sprees? 

"How did we get in the position where we're screwed if we're not in the good graces of the Muslim community? Maybe we should stop doing that. " . . .

Remember how Obama blames all his failures on the previous administration?

Check Out Hillary’s ‘Standard Requirements’ For A Speaking Engagement…

Weasel Zippers
Remember when Hillary explained her mega bucks speaking fee with this answer?



Offered to her...or demanded by her?  Observe:

"So no, she was not paid ‘what they offered’, but rather, what she demanded as a standard. Further, she has to have all her other expenditures and staff covered and paid for as well."

As William Safire said of Hillary, she is "a congenital liar".

Obama: Anti-Anti-Terrorist

"Sharia supremacists are not only shielded from scrutiny by U.S. intelligence but welcomed into the national-security apparatus."

 

Andrew C. McCarthy  "Barack Obama has spent his presidency cultivating Islamists, particularly from the international Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates in the United States. As we saw this week, he chafes at the term “radical Islam” — as do his Islamist advisers. At their insistence, he had instructional materials for training government agents purged of references to Islamic terms that illuminate the nexus between Muslim doctrine and jihadist terror. 

"Obama’s vaunted national-security strategy, “Countering Violent Extremism,” is Orwellian. The term CVE supplants identification of our jihadist enemies with the woolly notion that “violence” can be caused by any form of “extremism” — it has nothing to do with Islam. By transferring security responsibilities from government intelligence agents to Muslim “community leaders” (often, Islamist groups), CVE actually encourages violent extremism." . . .

Redactor-in-Chief Whites Out Orlando Killer’s Islamo-motives

. . . "As for the why, President Obama cannot handle the truth. Instead, Obama has become the redactor-in-chief. He and his allies have rolled out barrels of Wite-Out to obscure the fact that Mateen was a radical Muslim, and his mass homicide was a self-described act of radical-Islamic carnage in service to ISIS. Obama’s Justice Department and Attorney General Loretta Lynch got Liquid Paper all over their faces Monday as they tried to hide Mateen’s Islamic-terror ties before they suddenly reversed themselves as rage and ridicule rightly rained down on them." . . .

Obama and his minions come up short in fighting radical Islam

Loretta Lynch: ‘Most effective’ response to Islamic terrorism ‘is love’

"Attorney General Loretta Lynch told Florida’s LGBT community that the “most effective” weapon at America’s disposal against Islamic terrorism is “love.”

"Mrs. Lynch told reporters in Orlando on Tuesday that an ongoing investigation will determine the precise motive for 29-year-old Omar Mateen’s June 12 massacre at Pulse, a gay nightclub. Mateen, a former security guard, called 911 and pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group while killing 49 people and wounding 53 others.

“ 'To the LGBT community — we stand with you,” President Obama’s attorney general said. “The good in this world far outweighs the evil. Our common humanity transcends our differences, and our most effective response to terror is compassion, it’s unity and it’s love. We stand with you today because we grieve together, and long after the cameras are gone will continue to stand with you as we grow together in commitment and solidarity and in equality.' ” . . .

US lacks ‘grand strategy’ in Libya: Lt. Gen. Waldhauser

"This whole Libyan mess is due to the Obama-Clinton strategy and it has NOT gotten any better due to Obama's weak foreign policy !! The President’s nominee to lead the Africa Command said Tuesday that the U.S. lacks an “overall grand strategy” in Libya, where a small number of troops are assisting allied governmental forces in the fight against ISIS."

US lacks ‘grand strategy’ in Libya: Lt. Gen. Waldhauser

. . . "In testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Lt. Gen. Thomas Waldhauser said he was not aware of any larger strategy beyond assisting the newly formed Government of National Accord (GNA) to route out ISIS. Waldhauser made the comment amid grilling from Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.)."

Socialism for the Uninformed

Hey, Bernie voters: Check out Venezuela   "Cheers for Vin Scully, the legendary voice of the Dodgers.  He's called a lot of games and big moments over the years.  His comments about socialism earned an A+ in the Truth Hall of Fame:

Socialism, failing to work as it always does. This time in Venezuela. You talk about giving everybody something free and all of a sudden, there’s no food to eat. And who do you think is the richest person in Venezuela? The daughter of Hugo Chavez. Hello.

Thomas Sowell   "Socialism sounds great. It has always sounded great. And it will probably always continue to sound great. It is only when you go beyond rhetoric, and start looking at hard facts, that socialism turns out to be a big disappointment, if not a disaster. 

"While throngs of young people are cheering loudly for avowed socialist Bernie Sanders, socialism has turned oil rich Venezuela into a place where there are shortages of everything from toilet paper to beer, where electricity keeps shutting down, and where there are long lines of people hoping to get food, people complaining that they cannot feed their families. 

"With national income going down, and prices going up under triple­ digit inflation in Venezuela, these complaints are by no means frivolous. But it is doubtful if the young people cheering for Bernie Sanders have even heard of such things, whether in Venezuela or in other countries around the world that have turned their economies over to politicians and bureaucrats to run." . . .

Islamic terrorism: Crime or war?

Time to Stop Reacting to Terrorists as if They Were Crooks  "From what I know, the three to four police on the scene responded quickly and followed the shooter into a back room.  Along the way, more people were killed than can now be blamed on Mateen with certainty.  Once in the back room and contained, the police treated Mateen like any other criminal, bank robber, or distraught individual, who wanted to live; backed off; and waited for a negotiator.  Meanwhile, the people hiding in that back room were being shot at will.

"The Clinton administration made a fundamental error when it decided to treat terrorists as criminals.  The result has been acknowledged as less than spectacular by most everyone but Madeleine Albright and the Clintons.  Our police, though, followed this example.

"Police follow procedures, with good cause, but it's time for procedures to discriminate killers from crooks and treat them differently.  A shooter in the midst of a mass of people, particularly in a gun-free zone, should be responded to as a terrorist by police and by civilians in the vicinity acting in self-defense." . . .

David Brooks @NYT: We must let the terrorists in, or they will kill us

". . . "In our current state, we have Scott Baio – yes, Chachi from Happy Days – who has perhaps best said what everyone reasonable in the West is thinking:

[President Barack Obama's reluctance to say] Islamic terror [means] he's dumb, he's Muslim or he's a Muslim sympathizer ... And I don't think he's dumb ... [what is the] end game? ... Is it to totally eliminate the United States as it was created and founded and the way it is now? I'm baffled by the lack of anything happening.

"And now word is coming out that the Attorney General will be "scrubbing" the 911 calls made by the Orlando Islamic terrorist of any reference to Islam.

"The days in the West grow dark, indeed."

New York Times reports on desperate hunger and starvation in Venezuela, but omits mention of ‘socialism’

Thomas Lifson  . . . "Yet, oddly enough, in over 1,500 words on the situation, there is no mention whatsoever of socialism as a root cause.  Instead, low oil prices are blamed, and the only mention of a word related to socialism was this:

[1989 riots in Caracas] seared the memory of a future president,Hugo Chávez, who said the country’s inability to provide for its people, and the state’s repression of the uprising, were the reasons Venezuela needed a socialist revolution.

"Beyond that, there is no mention of the price controls, the demonization of business owners, the seizures of businesses, the decline in oil production thanks to state management, or any of the other socialist policies that make Venezuela the only oil producer in the world to see mass starvation in the wake of the oil price decline (that, incidentally, has reversed course of late).

"Quite clearly, the leftist media are busily engaged in covering up the evils perpetrated by socialism, just as assiduously as the Obama administration is covering up Islam’s root cause role in global violent jihad terrorism.
