Of Soldiers and Scoundrels

ALOHA, ALL!!

First Things First… Today is Armed Forces Day.  Thanks to all who fight for freedom and liberty!!

Is Obama inept or corrupt?  Either one is an outrage.  Great article:  President Corrupt or President Inept?  Check out this regarding Sarah Hall Ingram’s (aka Church Lady) successor at the IRS:  ”…Ingram’s successor and the fall guy for this scandal is Joseph Grant, who was “appointed as commissioner of the tax-exempt office May 8, a week ago.” Grant announced on May 16 that he would retire on June 3. ABC News went so far as to write that Grant “is taking the fall for misdeeds at the scandal-plagued unit between 2010 and 2012.” In other words, the lady responsible for this travesty is secure in her Obamacare-related post while Grant loses his job.”  Appointed a week ago and retiring June 3????????  Prediction:  once Barry and his crew are finally out of Washington, we will see a spate of books about the ineptitude of this administration like we have never seen.

This should be interesting.  Issa Subpoenas Pickering  Looks like “Must See TV” on Thursday!

NEO at Nebraska Energy Observer posted this excellent video of Representative Mike Kelly questioning Steven “I’m from the IRS but Know Nothing” Miller the other day.  Rep Kelly gets a standing ovation from the crowd:

It’s Miller Time!!!!  I LOVE Dennis Miller (no relation to Steven “I’m from the IRS but Know Nothing” Miller) – he’s one of the quickest and funniest guys out there.  To wit (Shaka to Jodie):

George W Bush’s speech after the capture of Saddam Hussein:

“The success of yesterday’s mission is a tribute to our men and women now serving in Iraq. The operation was based on the superb work of intelligence analysts who found the dictator’s footprints in a vast country. The operation was carried out with skill and precision by a brave fighting force. Our servicemen and women and our coalition allies have faced many dangers in the hunt for members of the fallen regime, and in their effort to bring hope and freedom to the Iraqi people. Their work continues, and so do the risks. Today, on behalf of the nation, I thank the members of our Armed Forces and I congratulate them!” 

Obama’s speech after the killing of bin Laden:

“And so shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the Director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda, even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat his network. Then, last August, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden. It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground. I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan . And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and I authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice. Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.”

GOD BLESS AMERICA – PASS THIS ON!!!

Hump Day Report: Tales of Two Attorneys General

“Who me? I only take credit for successes. Think I’ll go play some golf now.”

ALOHA, ALL!!  So amid all the ball-spiking, high fives, and other shameless promotion of his “I killed bin Laden” campaign, did you realize the Obama administration was ready to blame the military if the operation failed?  I’m not talking about some after-the-fact, spontaneous blame game, but a formalized report, prepared in advance, that would have put the blame squarely on the shoulders of Vice Admiral William McRaven.  McRaven led the mission that captured OBL:  The Terrorist Hunter On Whose Shoulders the OBL Raid Rested.  Yeah….Preezy wasn’t gonna take any blame if something went wrong.  Former Attorney General Michael Mukasey exposed Obama’s plan during a recent interview with Sean Hannity.  Check this out:  

That video of Mukasey begs the question:  what’s our current AG up to?  Short answer:  no good.  Here’s a longer explanation.  The Chicago Way:  Justice For Sale At Holder’s DOJ  ”Eric Holder has not criminally charged or prosecuted a single top executive from any of the elite financial institutions thought responsible for the financial crash. And why would they? As Boyer and Schweizer report, “through last fall, Obama had collected more donations from Wall Street than any of the Republican candidates; employees of Bain Capital donated more than twice as much to Obama as they did to Romney, who founded the firm.”

In Other News:

Basketball Thug Charles Barkley Threatens To Beat Romney Like A Drum  ”I apply the Republican test to comments like Barkley’s. How would the liberal media respond if a noted high-profile conservative had used similar language about President Obama?”

Lugar Ousted By Tea Party Challenger  ”Indiana grassroots appears to have scored a major victory of the GOP establishment in tonight’s hotly contested senate primary. Richard Mourdock, the State Treasurer heavily backed by various tea parties is the projected winner over career politician Dick Lugar in a historic upset.”

Jehmu Greene:  Portrait Of Black Bigotry  (Article written by a Black conservative)  ”Had Carlson or any other white person called Greene a burr-headed colored girl on the air, Al Sharpton would have been outside the studio door before they left the air. Megyn Kelly would have immediately and harshly rebuked the offender – all the while silently thanking her ratings gods that a white person had said something so offensive on her show – especially if it had been a white male. She would have thought that she had died and gone to ratings heaven. Instead, typical of those like her, Kelly, because Greene was black, waited until the end of the interview and then offered a tepid apology.”  I still contend she should be fired!!!!!

How about a not-so reverent recap of the news from PJ Media’s Scott Ott?  LOVE the story about West Virginia – LOL!!!  

Final Thought:  ”That was a highly lawyered memo.”  Former Attorney General Michael Mukasey on the document that was prepared to blame Admiral McRaven if the OBL mission failed.
