WHERE ARE GERMANY’S ‘RIGHT-WING HOOLIGANS’?

Barbwire

"When thousands of Muslim “refugees” descended on New Year’s Eve celebrations across Europe and set off explosives and sexually attacked hundreds of girls, the police were scarce and unresponsive. The media ignored it for days.

"Juxtapose that with the overwhelming police force/army, armed with water cannons, at an anti-jihad demo the following day. And the media mob followed up with smear reports about those rational anti-rape jihad protests.

"That was not happenstance. That was not accidental. Reports of violent right-wing riots appear to be manufactured by the Angela Merkel-media to induce the left to spring into action.

"The media reported that in Germany, “hundreds of masked hooligans” rioted – but where are these alleged right-wing hooligans? I’ve been looking for actual footage of “right-wing hooligans” vandalizing and rioting in Leipzig and elsewhere, as they were reported as having done, but to no avail. There doesn’t appear to be any such footage.

"It gets much more sinister than that." . . .

Pelosi unconcerned Iran will do bad things with the $150 billion  "There are so many members of the Loathsome Lunatic Leaders Club that it’s hard to decide who is the worst.  But if I had to choose one, Nancy Pelosi would be right up there.  Here’s a tidbit of insanity that fell from her lips on Wednesday when discussing the Iran deal with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, her mouth and lips in constant motion even when she wasn’t speaking, her thick mane of fake hair thicker than ever, and her attitude rich with her usual stupidity and smugness."

"There is no further comment needed on what she had to say.  It speaks for itself. "

#BlackLivesMatter Tries To Shut Down Bay Bridge In San Francisco During Rush Hour

Two murdered police officers teach a harsh lesson about criminal rehabilitation

Hot Air  Why does the United States lock up more people than anyone else in the world?

Officer Doug Barney 

"That’s a question that gets asked a lot in Democrat circles and it’s a high priority subject in their primary debates. In some areas there is clearly room for a reexamination of sentencing guidelines and it’s not a subject conservatives should shy away from entirely. But at the same time, a rush to release as many prisoners as possible or to shuttle people off to “treatment centers” rather than jail or federal prison presents significant issues as well. We saw a couple of cases of this in recent days which ended in tragedy, taking the lives of two police officers." . . .

. . . "They had Henderson (pictured, right) in custody for the umpteenth time and he was known to be dangerous and frequently armed. Yet somehow a judge decided to send him to a treatment center where he simply walked away just before Christmas. The next time we caught up with him he’d murdered a cop." . . .

Let's see, how'd that Black Lives Matter chant go? "Pigs in a blanket . . ."

What Jeb's Donors Could Have Bought for $103M

Sad, because I consider the Bush family to be good people.

Roll Call

. . . "Right to Rise raised $103 million in 2015 and has spent more than $65 million so far. But nine months after he got into the race, Bush has collapsed from first to a tie for worst and is now polling at less than 5 percent nationally.   

"There’s no nice way to say this, and I’ll take it back if he wins, but Bush's super PAC donors just wasted $103 million. It’s only made more mind-boggling by what all of that money could have paid for instead, including the sorts of things his family has always worked for. For $103 million, the donors could have:

• Bought 20 million children’s books for the Barbara Bush Foundation.

• Sent 22,421 4-year-olds to preschool for a year.

• Covered a year's tuition for 10,624 students to go to college.

• Paid for a year of anti-retroviral drug treatment for 719,424 children in Africa.  Read it again — 719,424 children.

PRAGER U: Is America Racist?

The Hayride  "Is America racist? Is it — as President Barack Obama said — “part of our DNA”? Author and talk-show host Larry Elder examines America’s legacy of racism, whether it’s one we can ever escape, and in the process offers a different way of looking at things like Ferguson, crime, police and racial profiling."

Forum: Has The Relationship Between Men And Women Changed For The Worse?

Joshuapundit   "Every week on Monday morning , the Council and our invited guests weigh in at the Watcher's Forum, short takes on a major issue of the day, the culture, or daily living. This week's question: Has The Relationship Between Men And Women Changed For The Worse?" . . .

. . . "The left today includes both men and women putting men down. Women are seen beating up the bad guys while men are too often portrayed as weak or looking like Pajama Boy or walking around with orange hair and crashing into cars in Foster Child commercials. Aggressive sports are on the ropes and football players are portrayed as more violent than the other men though research proves it's not true." . . .

How many TV commercials and shows depict clueless men being put in their place by a wiser, condescending woman? How many companies and police units on TV are led by "no-nonsense" women who are more forceful and aware? 

Have you watched the portrayal of boys and girls on children's TV shows? The boys are nincompoops!  TD

Boom – RNC drops NBC from Super Tuesday debate after CNBC debacle

Legal Insurrection

"I suggested at the time GOP needs to make an example of NBC News:"

The GOP has a long history of subjecting its candidates to abuse by debate moderators.

From George Stephanopolous to Candy Crowley, debates are a time for network journalists to earn their battle badges by damaging Republicans.

And the GOP just sucks it up and takes it….

NBC News issued a statement saying it hoped to work with the RNC to resolve any differences.

Don’t let it.

The GOP has stumbled, almost blind, into a way to harness the anger of the Republican electorate while also resetting the relationship between the GOP and the hostile media.

Make an example of NBC News.

It’s a winning issue. No one likes journalists. The profession is not well respected and is viewed widely as biased. Who is going to come to the defense of NBC News?

. . . 

Turn the narrative around from the GOP needing the media to the media needing the GOP.

Iran’s Arrest of U.S. Sailors Reflects Obama’s Foreign-Policy Weakness

NRO  "Two thousand years ago, a Roman could wander the known world confident that he would be unmolested by local unruly elements, protected only by the statement “Civis romanus sum,” I am a Roman citizen. His confidence stemmed from a demonstrated assurance that any group that dared attack a Roman would trigger a response in the form of a Roman legion, which would deal swift and brutal justice. Juxtapose this image of a previous world-spanning hegemon with the image of ten American Sailors kneeling on the deck of their own vessel with their hands clasped together over their heads. It is an image of indignity and failure that is accompanied by the smell of rotting power.

Iran general scoffs: US sailors cried when we captured them

"Revolutionary Guards officer says servicemen briefly held this week were only released after ‘Americans humbly admitted our might and power’ ". . . 

"Salami said “the marines were crying when they were being captured, but they later felt better after the IRGC forces treated them with kindness.”
"The comments were reported by Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency." . . .

What the Ayres-Wright-Obama unholy trinity have always wanted: the humiliation of America.

Obama, Iran, and the Kidnapping of Realism  . . . "Don’t get me wrong; realism demands that we actively pursue diplomacy with Iran. Iran’s youthful population is an existential threat to the theocrats and a source of major internal political pressure. We must not alienate these future leaders with a leap to military action. Yet by our failure to deter Iran’s hard-liners, we only encourage them further. And in their empowerment, political moderation perishes. Foreign-policy realism demands that we sometimes deal with unpleasant people. But it also requires our commitment to honest policy."

Frost warning: "Hillary Seethes After Tapper Asks if the FBI’s Interviewed Her ‘Yet’ "

Update from smalldeadanimals.com

NRO   "Hillary Clinton could barely contain her contempt this morning when CNN’s Jake Tapper ended an interview by asking about the FBI investigation into her handling of classified material.
 “Just one last question for you,” he said. “In terms of the status of the FBI investigation into your private e-mail server, have you been interviewed by the FBI yet?” 

 “No,” came Clinton’s one-word reply. Tapper then wrapped the interview, wishing Clinton good luck in tonight’s debate and thanking her for coming on. Clinton visibly struggled to thank him in kind." 

Reverend Martin Luther King’s Media Makeover

The Left, uncomfortable with God talk, ignores MLK’s deep devotion to Christ.  . . . "Listen carefully and you’ll hear endless mention of Doctor Martin Luther King — but little if any mention of the Reverend Martin Luther King. 

"Listen carefully to all of the video and audio clips, and you’ll hear some of the greatest rhetoric and some of the most passionate speeches of the 20th century. The sound bites and clips will stir your soul. But you won’t hear the references to God that so often filled his speeches, nor will you hear references to the book that most inspired him: the Bible." . . .

E-Rumor: "Charles Krauthammer: The Clinton Foundation is Organized Crime-Truth! & Fiction!"

Truth or Fiction  "An essay attributed to Charles Krauthammer calls the Clinton Foundation “organized crime at its finest.”

"The Truth:  Charles Krauthammer didn’t write this essay about the Clinton Foundation, but some of the essay’s claims are on point.

"The name of Charles Krauthammer, a syndicated columnist and FOX News contributor, was first attached to an essay that accused the Clinton Foundation of money laundering, tax evasion and organized crime in early November 2015. The essay was widely forwarded in emails and posted at online discussion forums under Krauthammer’s name.

"One of the earliest versions of the essay appeared on a blog site called True News U.S.A on October 28, 2015, under the headline “Charles Krauthammer on Hillary Clinton.” In that version, Charles Krauthammer’s name is briefly mentioned in the opening, but the article was not attributed to him:

Recently, Charles Krauthammer alluded that he had no doubt some of the 30k emails Hillary deleted from her private email server very likely had references to the Clinton Foundation, which would be illegal and a conflict of interest.

"The opening reference to Krauthammer refers to remarks that he made on FOX News in July 2015 about Hilary Clinton’s use of private email servers while secretary of state, and allegations that she erased some of them. Krauthammer said, “The real crime, so to speak — at least the political crime — is the fact that she unilaterally erased 30,000 of these (emails).”

"Charles Krauthammer didn’t make any reference to the Clinton Foundation or conflicts of interest, as the essay claims, but he did say that the most damaging emails had likely already been deleted.

"Krauthammer’s name may have been added to the byline to lend the essay credibility, he is a Pulitzer Prize winning columnist, after all. Or Krauthammer’s name may have been added by mistake, too. His name was in the original headline, and it’s not immediately clear where the essay transitions from Krauthammer’s views on the Clinton email scandal to the (unknown) author’s views on the Clinton Foundation.

"But regardless of how it happened, this essay on the Clinton Foundation has been incorrectly attributed to Charles Krauthammer.

"Still, because there’s been plenty of reader interest, we’ll take a look at the money laundering and “organized crime” allegations that the essay makes about the Clinton Foundation." . . .

Clinton Campaign Underestimated Sanders Strengths; Watch for the Big Leftward Shift

NY Times

. . . "According to Democrats close to the Clintons and involved with her campaign, Mrs. Clinton and the former president are also unnerved by the possibility that Mr. Sanders will foment a large wave of first­time voters and liberals that will derail her in Iowa, not unlike Barack Obama’s success in 2008, which consigned Mrs. Clinton to a third­place finish. They have asked her advisers about the strength of the campaign’s data modeling and turnout assumptions in Iowa, given that her 2008 campaign’s predictions were so inaccurate." . . .

QUESTION: Will We Really Have A New President In 2016?

. . . " In Obama’s mind, who would be best to carry on his legacy?  Barack Obama, of course.

"Think this can’t happen?  On March 16, 2012, Obama signed The National Defense Resources Preparedness Executive Order.  In times of national emergency, this order gives the president practically unlimited power over we the people and our property.  And the president essentially decides what constitutes a national emergency.

The White House stated that the purpose of the executive order is to delegate authority and address national defense resource policies and programs under the Defense Production Act of 1950.  Sounds reasonable enough, but there are very astute analysts that believe this gives the president unilateral authority to declare a national emergency, suspend elections, and seize control of every aspect of our society." . . .
