Rep. Jim Cylburn Warns Republicans to Be Very, Very Careful

by Kim D.

South Carolina elected Democrat Jim Clyburn to the House of Representatives in 1993, and he's still there over 20 years later, lecturing his Republican colleagues to be very, very careful how they treat President Obama. After all, "turnabout is fair play."

Sounds like he doesn't think Hillary has a chance in hell to win in 2016.

Watch it Hillary - Your Misandry and #WhitePrivilege Are Showing

by Kim D.

We've all noticed it. A president comes in to the office on day one looking rather fresh. Then after a couple of years, the gray hair begins to show. Since all of the prior presidents in American history have been men, Hillary saw this as a great opportunity to boost her highest qualification for capturing the White House in 2016 - she'll never turn "white" because she's been dyeing her hair for years.
Alas, it appears her jovial playfulness fell short of impressing anyone other than Clinton sycophants.

John Podesta Sets Himself Up for the #Lewinsky #Fail

by Kim D.

It was just this past Wednesday, that we shared Hillary Clinton's stunning campaign wares for sale. Of special interest was the red pant suit t-shirt. It didn't take long (two days) for long-time Clinton supporter, John Podesta to model the new Hillary fashion on Twitter.
Podesta had to have known good-natured and mean-spirited teasing would follow, but he really set himself up for a classic slam thanks to Photoshop. I wonder how long it took to change that red shirt to Monica blue?

Rand Paul #PatriotAct PAC Ad Takes Aim at Obama, Cruz, and Graham

by Kim D.

Is this new Rand Paul ad hip or hype? With the Patriot Act set to expire tomorrow, today's Senate vote will decide if 2016 Republican presidential hopeful Rand Paul has been successful in his highly controversial block to any extension of the surveillance law. In this ad, the Paul friendly America's Liberty PAC reduces the issue to the comedic level of a monster truck rally and takes personal jabs at Obama and Republican primary challengers Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham.


Perhaps Rand and his Super PAC should just stick to the facts and be a bit more sincere about undoing legislation that many believe is a defensive weapon against terrorism, like he did in his released statement to Politico:

“I have fought for several years now to end the illegal spying of the NSA on ordinary Americans. The callous use of general warrants and the disregard for the Bill of Rights must end. Forcing us to choose between our rights and our safety is a false choice and we are better than that as a nation and as a people. “That’s why two years ago, I sued the NSA. It’s why I proposed the Fourth Amendment Protection Act. It’s why I have been seeking for months to have a full, open and honest debate on this issue— a debate that never came. “So last week, seeing proponents of this illegal spying rushing toward a deadline to wholesale renew this unconstitutional power, I filibustered the bill. I spoke for over 10 hours to call attention to the vast expansion of the spy state and the corresponding erosion of our liberties.“Then, last week, I further blocked the extension of these powers and the Senate adjourned for recess rather than stay and debate them. “Tomorrow, we will come back with just hours left before the NSA illegal spying powers expire. “Let me be clear: I acknowledge the need for a robust intelligence agency and for a vigilant national security.“I believe we must fight terrorism, and I believe we must stand strong against our enemies.“But we do not need to give up who we are to defeat them. In fact, we must not.“There has to be another way. We must find it together.“So tomorrow, I will force the expiration of the NSA illegal spy program.

Sincerest Sympathy to the Biden Family

by Kim D.
Losing a family member is devastating, no matter the circumstances, but seeing one lose the battle to cancer is heart wrenching. This is the very sad reality Vice President Joe Biden and his family are facing as they prepare their final farewells for Beau Biden who has passed away at the young age of 46.

Last Night's #WTF Moment #PlugsNation #NotMyAmerica

by Kim D.

When I first joined Twitter, one of my first follows was the jewel I affectionately refer to as "Plugs." He's a thorn in the side of the outraged, employing Reductio ad Hitleram by proudly sporting the tricked out avatar of VP Joe Biden with a Hitler twist. For me, on the rare occasion when insomnia strikes, I know I can find some late-night entertainment by trolling Adolf Joe Biden's timeline. Last night was no disappointment.

Anyone who follows Plugs knows he has little love or tolerance for those who follow the teachings of the false prophet Muhammad. So, it's no surprise he would chime in on the #NotMyAmerica hashtag on Twitter, a ridiculous attempt to shame the organizers of the biker rally and Draw Muhammad contest held in Phoenix.
He's bold and unabashedly doesn't give two craps if you love him or hate him. [Note over 26K followers love to see what Plugs has to say for either outrage or entertainment purposes]. And, I think even he would admit that 75% of what he tweets is meant to intentionally piss of those of a more liberal-minded persuasion. But, last night he got a response to one of his tweets that was priceless.
For that response, there are not many words other than to say it's time to call it a night, knowing more morons will be tweeting in the morning.

While Obama Screams #ClimateChange, #Busch Acts on Devastating Floods

by Kim D.

No . . . not BUSH . . . it's Busch, a beer brewery, that's stepping up with immediate relief for victims of the devastating flooding in Texas and Oklahoma.

So tell me again what is more effective? The private sector or the federal government?
In a display of free market productivity, the Anheuser-Busch brewery in Cartersville, Georgia, is sending aid to flood victims in Texas and Oklahoma. They have halted beer production in favor of canning drinkable water, which will be distributed through the Red Cross. Anheuser-Busch expects the canned water to reach flood victims in the next 48 hours. 
I'm sure doing a Q&A on climate change via Twitter will help too (insert sarcasm here).

#TedCruz to Daily Beast - Check Your Facts!

by Kim D.

According to the The Daily Beast, Senator Ted Cruz is an addicted, geek gamer who would sometimes rather be playing games on his Iphone than fighting on the Senate floor:
The article goes on to claim Cruz is basically a humorless stiff:
Here’s where video games help: Cruz suffers from a perception of rigidity. When asked a question, his responses are always airtight and measured, the mark of a former debate champion. Often these conversations seem stilted and rehearsed. Unlike a more gregarious politician like Senator John McCain, Cruz doesn’t make unscripted jokes or pal around much.  
Really? The Daily Beast should check its facts and perceptions a little better.

Let's Do This!

By Founders Girl
Cross Posted at American Woman


Flashback: 2014 Election. Joy & elation. Can you hear us now? We are the conservative majority of a nation that is fed up with leftist agenda. I'm ready to tackle 2016 & I think we have a great selection of viable candidates. So when, exactly do we get to commit to a front-runner?

Are we waiting for the clearly ideal candidate to emerge? Bad news friends, it isn't going to happen like that. Remember in 2012 when the man of the hour would rise to the top and then get shredded and dismissed? All the while the kool-aid sippers watched with glee as conservatives imploded from the inside out. Democrats (living or otherwise) ran out and voted for their savior while some of us held our noses just to vote against Obama & others stayed home and pouted. Welcome to another 4 years of fundamental change.

Being the party of individualism makes it rough to come to a solid consensus, but can not wait around for the process of elimination to make the choice clear! If we are not united in enthusiasm for a specific conservative candidate we will find ourselves united on disgust when the GOP hands Jeb the nomination.


The sooner we have a candidate to get behind the better! While poking fun at Hillary's cankles, endless pantsuits, & scandalous behavior is fun, it is NOT going to convince a single Democrat not to vote for her. Honestly, defending an unworthy, pitiful candidate appeals to their appetite for social justice. If there is anything at all we could learn from the left, it's a little loyalty. I'm not saying we should accept any politician without holding them accountable, but it's time to look at the big picture and acknowledge that just about any conservative would be better than Hillary!!

Is it wrong to be filled with anticipation over the chance to get this great nation back on track ASAP?!? I'm hearing the most support for Cruz & Walker in my little Twittersphere. Who's it gonna be? Let's commit already! I have my political pom-poms* out & I am ready to rally the masses - lets do this!!

Art Apparently Is in the Eye of the Beholder #Mansplaining

by Kim D.

A bronze statue, simply titled "New Friends" and meant to symbolize camaraderie and friendship, adorns the campus of the University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio, Texas. Upon first glance, the statue seems harmless enough. A young woman is seated on a bench with an open book in her lap. Her attention is drawn to a young man who is engaging her in conversation. He stands with one leg propped on the bench.

It's art for art's sake and has meaning only in the eye of the beholder. So, what may seem to be an innocent and healthy depiction of student campus life can turn rather hostile in the eyes of a third-wave feminist. The art can quickly take on a new meaning: mansplaining, which is seen as the act of an obnoxious, know-it-all, man explaining something to a woman in a patronizing way.
Over the Memorial Day weekend, the notion of mansplaining reared its ugly head and the photo of this bronze art went viral giving feminists one more thing to bitch about. According to the sculptor, this is far from the meaning he intended in the creation process.
"It was two students visiting, talking … implying nothing beyond that," the sculptor, Paul Tadlock, told WITW. In fact, that's Tadlock's daughter in the sculpture. And the reason the male student has his foot up on the bench? It's not because he's talking down to the woman. It's because Tadlock wanted "to add a little more character to the scene."

The Circus is coming to Baltimore. Unfortunately it includes the Clown Princess of the Baltimore State's Attorney's office.

By Rob Janicki
Baltimore is quickly becoming a bad joke in the criminal justice community.  In particular, the Baltimore State's Attorney, Marilyn Mosby has turned the justice system into one dreadful daytime soap opera.  

Mosby, by her many public actions and pronouncements, has clearly violated the code of professional responsibility and could easily be held to account before the Maryland State Bar Examiners.  

Her demeanor has been that of a person seeking public acclaim, rather than seeking a fair trial for the six BPD officers under indictment in the death of Freddie Gray.  Mosby, seems more like a mob leader of vigilantes, than an officer of the court committed to see that justice is achieved in a fair and impartial trial of the six BPD officers.  

It should be remembered that Mosby brought charges against the six police officers within 24 hours of taking over the case.  The defendants were subsequently indicted by a Grand Jury lead by Ms. Mosby after she dropped several of the original charges.  Legal scholars believe that Mosby originally overcharged the defendants and is now engaging in unethical behavior as the case goes to trial.

Sadly, it took the death of an ignorant fool to increase the collective IQ of the human gene pool.

RIVERDALE, Md. (WJZ—A man is dead after authorities say he was burned when he lit a cigarette while getting gas this afternoon in Prince George’s County.

Authorities say a man was attempting to light his cigarette while he was getting gas when he caught fire.


A good samaritan tried to extinguish the flames, but the unidentified man eventually succumbed to his burn injuries.  Most gas stations post signs prohibiting open flames, if not cell phone usage, when pumping gas.  It just boggles the mind to imagine anyone foolish enough to light a cigarette while pumping gas with all the fumes usually present in such situations.

Crappy Tweet of the Day: #KeepingItReal Dumb

Baltimore State's Attorney, Marilyn Mosby makes a mockery of the Code of Judicial Responsibility.

By Rob Janicki
Baltimore is one messed up city.  First, the mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake,verbally incited rioters to let off steam by destroying property in Baltimore and then promptly denied ever saying such, which was caught on video and played repeatedly.

Now we have the Baltimore State's Attorney, Marilyn Mosby, doubling down on stupid.  Mosby became highly suspect when she rushed to judgment by charging six Baltimore Police Officers in the death of Freddie Gray, all within 24 hours of having received the case.  By all accounts of notable legal scholars and top attorneys, Mosby substantially overcharged the officers in Gray's death.  The fact that Mosby is the youngest Baltimore State's Attorney with virtually no experience in high profile cases is no defense for her actions.

Now we find Mosby most probably violating the Judicial Code of Conduct and Professional Responsibility.

From the American Bar Association:  Rule 3.8: Special Responsibilities of a Prosecutor

(f) except for statements that are necessary to inform the public of the nature and extent of the prosecutor's action and that serve a legitimate law enforcement purpose, refrain from making extrajudicial comments that have a substantial likelihood of heightening public condemnation of the accused and exercise reasonable care to prevent investigators, law enforcement personnel, employees or other persons assisting or associated with the prosecutor in a criminal case from making an extrajudicial statement that the prosecutor would be prohibited from making under Rule 3.6 or this Rule.

It would appear that Ms. Mosby has violated this rule six ways to Sunday, since she has made public pronouncements that go beyond mere informational notices.

It is the role of a prosecutor to make certain that justice is obtained for the defendants in the form of a fair trial.  Ms. Mosby has publicly aligned herself with the rioters of Baltimore.  Where is the fair and impartial justice for the defendants?

Mosby could easily be brought up on charges of misconduct before the Maryland State Bar for violating the rules of professionally conduct.  The result could range from a public rebuke to disbarment or just about anything in between.  I fully expect to see the case against these six police officers being moved outside of Baltimore in a change in venue with a definite possibility of Ms. Mosby being replaced as the state's prosecutor.  She is in over her head and has already destroyed any credibility she may have had going into the case as an officer of the court.  The primary purpose of an officer of the court is to see that a fair trial ensues, regardless of the outcome.  Mosby has already failed this responsibility.

New Low for Media Propaganda - Romanticizing ISIS Marriage

by Kim D.

In an article only worthy of Tiger Beat, the Associate Press has hit an all-time low in the recent article, "ISIS fighters get marriage bonuses and honeymoons." This is the first paragraph:
The honeymoon was a brief moment for love, away from the front lines of Syria’s war. In the capital of the Islamic State group’s self-proclaimed “caliphate,” Syrian fighter Abu Bilal al-Homsi was united with his Tunisian bride for the first time after months chatting online. They married, then passed the days dining on grilled meats in Raqqa’s restaurants, strolling along the Euphrates River and eating ice cream.
Sound rather romantic, doesn't it? The article continues:
It was all made possible by the marriage bonus he received from the Islamic State group: $1,500 for him and his wife to get started on a new home, a family — and a honeymoon. 
To be fair, the article does paint a brief alternative viewpoint of Ragga:
“It has everything one would want for a wedding,” al-Homsi said of Raqqa — a riverside provincial capital that in the 18 months since IS took control has seen militants beheading opponents and stoning accused adulteresses in its main square.
Gunmen at checkpoints in the city scrutinize passers-by for signs of anything they see as a violation of Shariah, or Islamic law, as slight as a hint of hair gel or an improperly kept beard. In the homes of some of the IS commanders in the city are women and girls from the Yazidi religious sect, abducted in Iraq and now kept as sex slaves. 
At issue is that this article skirts over the rather unpleasant aspects of living among ISIS jihadis and the harsh reality of Shariah law. The focus is on the fact that ISIS encourages its fighters to marry as it strives to build a new civilization which appears to be based on a welfare system:
The couple is now expecting a new baby and hoping for a new cash injection with the childbirth, as the group can pay up to $400 as a bonus for each child. 
For now the group provides him with a stipend of $50 a month and a similar amount for his wife, which he said are mainly for “entertainment.” Everything else is paid for: He gets an allowance for his uniform and clothes, some household cleaning supplies, and monthly food baskets worth $65. 
It is the duty of the state, al-Homsi said, to care for the fighter’s family while he is away battling to expand the caliphate.

So, the take-away lesson here is guard your daughter and be weary of online activity meant to glamorize the jihadi life.

As Obama continues to dither and turn his back on an ally, Russia markedly advances its interests in Egypt.

By Rob Janicki
While President Obama does nothing about ISIS in Syria and Iraq, Russian President Vladimir Putin is busy resurrecting its long ago former relationship with Egypt.

While Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi seeks out terrorists on the Sinai Peninsula and Muslim Brotherhood members throughout Egypt, Russians are meeting with members of the Egyptian government to establish economic initiatives beneficial to both countries.

[...] President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi met with a delegation of 300 Russian businessmen headed by Russian Minister for Industry and Trade Denis Manturov at the presidential palace in Cairo, the Cairo Post reported on Tuesday.

The delegation is on a two day visit meant to advance prior agreements reached by Sisi and Russian President Vladimir Putin in February when they agreed to establish a Russian industrial zone at the New Suez Canal.

“Our talks will focus on developing railway trains....

We are also interested in developing an iron and steel factory in Egypt,” said Manturov on Monday during a meeting of the Egyptian-Russian Business Forum. [...]


Apparently this is not enough to even get President Obama's attention, since his hand picked successor to former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, has been imprisoned.  Muhammad Morsi, closely aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood, has been sentenced to death, a rather harsh sentence, but necessary for the al-Sisi government to also outlaw the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization in Egypt.

What is certain to get the attention to our allies, and those outside the Obama administration, is the fact that Egypt is buying armaments from Russia, just like the old days before the fall of the Soviet Union.

[...] Russia agreed to deliver 46 MiG-29 jets to Egypt in a deal expected to be worth as much as $2 billion, the largest MiG order since the fall of the Soviet Union, The Moscow Times reported on Monday, quoting a report in the country’s Vedomosti daily. [...]

This is a serious air craft purchase for Egypt.  Meanwhile, the United States military aircraft industry has been shutout and could have used this sale to Egypt to bolster its program development for American military aircraft. This just exemplifies another opportunity lost by the Obama administration as it continues its foolhardy policy of trying to make nice with our enemies, while turning a cold shoulder to our allies.

GOP Parodies Hillary's Round Table Events

Understanding Iraq today and what it will devolve into in the years ahead.

By Rob Janicki
It must be remembered that the Iraq of today is a fictional creation by European countries after World War I.  It did not take into account the historical nature of the three competing ethnic and religious groups within the boundaries of the artificial construction.  Essentially, Iraq became a pressure cooker for all the historical animosities within these three groups.  It was destined to fail and that failure is now here as it is being brought to an historical crisis point and breakup courtesy of ISIS.

Expect to see Iraq break up into three distinct ethnic and religious nation states.  The Kurdish region in northern Iraq is, for all intents and purposes, already an autonomous nation of Kurdistan operating on its own outside of any real control and/or support from the capital in Baghdad.

The largest religious group in Iraq are the Shiites and they are located in eastern and southern Iraq.  They will remain the dominant force in what will become the new Shiite Iraq.  Shiites constitute well over 60% of Iraqis today.  They were mercilessly subjugated by the Sunni regime of Saddam Hussein, a religious minority then and today in Iraq, which only acted to heighten the historical animosity between Shiites and Sunnis.

Geographically, traditional Sunni territory constitutes the western one-third of Iraq today.  That region will become some kind of an autonomous nation state at an undetermined time in the future.  This depends upon the disposition of the terrorists of ISIS in the future.  ISIS will fail in the future as they try to transition from a group of brutal and savage terrorists operating on an ad hoc basis to a nation state requiring stability to exist.  Being guided by a seventh century interpretation of Islam will simply not work in today's world for an Islamic Caliphate, no matter how much it is wished for by these inhuman savages of ISIS. 

Arab neighbors will not let ISIS exist on any permanent basis.  ISIS constitutes a continuing base for the export of terrorism destabilizing the entire region.  ISIS actually stands in the way of the Arab neighborhood pushing back on the growing influence of Iran in Iraq and the entire region.  The Arab nations in the region want to defeat ISIS so they can concentrate on containing Iran's influence in the region, which is the world's largest exporter of terrorism and which stands to destabilize the various monarchies in the region as it seeks to gain hegemony over the entire Middle East.

The irony of this situation is that Vice President Joe Biden, at one time prior to the U.S. departure from Iraq in 2011, suggested that Iraq be partitioned into three separate states, as described above.  Was Joe prescient or were his comments similar to that of a blind squirrel that will occasionally come across a random nut by accident.  I'm thinking Joe just managed, like the proverbial blind squirrel, to inadvertently come across a kernel of insight in his otherwise usual disjointed ramblings.

In Case You Become a Martyr . . . Whom Should We Contact

by Kim D.

This week the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released declassified materials which were found during the raid on Bin Ladin's compound in 2001.  Among these documents was an Al-Qaeda job application form.

The application begins friendly enough, requesting personal contact information and includes questions to determine the level of seriousness when it comes to waging jihad. However, the reality of just how short-lived the job could possibly be is saved for the end of the application:






Is Google Racist? Or Are You?

by Kim D.
Last night a neighbor began texting me pics of Google and its map search debacle. The problem is supposedly fixed now, but apparently typing racist words in the Google map search box provided some very interesting results. For instance, typing the words"N" house brought up the location for the White House.

Google apologized . . . kind of. It's your fault for searching with racist words.
“Certain offensive search terms were triggering unexpected maps results, typically because people had used the offensive term in online discussions of the place. This surfaced inappropriate results that users likely weren’t looking for.” 

Bin Ladin's Library - Where's the Porn?

by Kim D.

The Director of National Intelligence has released a list of English language books found at Bin Ladin's compound. But, what happened to the porn stash rumored to have been found?
According to The Washington Post, the pornographic material has been censored.
Reports that pornographic material was found in the compound were first published by the news agency Reuters on May 13, 2011, just weeks after a U.S. military raid on the site left the al-Qaeda leader dead. Unnamed officials told Reuters that the pornography was modern and the collection extensive. Officials said it was unclear how it came to be in the hideout, which had no Internet connection.
"We have no plans to release that at this point in time," Brian Hale, a spokesman for the DNI, told the Telegraph's Raf Sanchez. "Due to the nature of the content the decision was made not to release it." The Guardian was also told that the pornographic material would not be released. 
Personally, I would have thought there would have been at least one title devoted to goat husbandry.
