Before..............

When the president thought he could spike the football

“We found an opportunity. We took that opportunity. I’ll stand by that decision. I signed off on the decision. The president made the ultimate decision. We did spend time looking at this. As to Guantanamo, the president has made very clear he wants to close Guantanamo.”

After..........

When the shit hits the fan

Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel – not President Obama – executed the administration’s final call to proceed with the prisoner exchange of five ranking Taliban detainees for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, administration officials told Congress today in a classified briefing today.

Where's the apology?

Three years ago, Ohio expanded the ability of concealed carry holders to carry their weapons in bars and restaurants provided they don't drink.

Let's look back at the predictions.............

“The law says they can’t consume alcohol, but will that person be honest and play by the rules and not have a drop of alcohol when they have a gun on them?” 

“Alcohol and guns do not mix in any type of setting,” Heimlich said. “By inviting them into a restaurant, you’re opening yourself up to issues.”

“We oppose guns in bars, but it’s the law now and we hope that our prediction of increased violence doesn’t come to pass,”

Opponents of the law said bars would take on a "wild West" atmosphere if patrons could arm themselves.

I'll expect the same silence from the Branch Gorevidians when I'm standing on Daytona beach 20 years from now .

I guess gay stereotypes are OK

Last night, my bride was flipping through the channels and landed at the beginning of the Tony Awards.

Within the first five minutes of the ceremony, Hugh Jackman launched about 15 gay jokes and/or gay sexual innuendo references.

So I guess it's now A-OK to drop those when you feel like.

Libs are so smart.... Just ask one

If you hang around liberals long enough, you'll never be able to escape three truths.

1) Liberals are so smart, just ask one and they'll know everything about everything. Their belief in their intelligence totally squashes any personal humility

2) They are so worldly. And yet they have no sense of introspection at any level.

3) They're never to blame for their actions and are always looking for someone to bail them out for their shitty decisions.

So you really have to laugh your ass off when you get to see all of these in play in just two paragraphs of a news article.................

“I’m at the breaking point,” said Gretchen Gardner, an Austin artist who bought a 1930s bungalow in the Bouldin neighborhood just south of downtown in 1991 and has watched her property tax bill soar to $8,500 this year.

“It’s not because I don’t like paying taxes,” said Gardner, who attended both meetings. “I have voted for every park, every library, all the school improvements, for light rail, for anything that will make this city better. But now I can’t afford to live here anymore. I’ll protest my appraisal notice, but that’s not enough. Someone needs to step in and address the big picture.”

Here's the big picture Gretchen. Quit fucking voting for every tax increase.

Besides Gretchen's incredible stupidity, there was something in the article that our public needs an education on................

The share of property taxes from homeowners to support public schools grew from 45 percent to 54 percent over a 12-year period, while commercial and industrial owners’ share has declined to less than 20 percent. (Other sectors, from oil and gas to personal property, make up the rest.)

Let me ring the clue phone to you dumbasses. Businesses owners aren't clueless. They don't pay for more government than they need. So every time you pass a tax increase, income, property, or increased regulation, you simply provide fuel for business owners to get the hell out of Dodge.

When those businesses leave, who do you think has to pick up the slack? Gretchen?

Below are three people in the news that have no relation to one another except for a being raised in  a culture that's done nothing but boost their little one's self esteem without accomplishment.

Let's take Santa Barbara shooter boy. He lacked confidence, so instead of challenging him with some good old fashion hard work for a paycheck, they bought him a BMW to help him build his confidence.......

.....He blamed his parents for his lack of wealth......

.... It was his working mother's generosity to her adult son, including paying his rent and the gift of a used BMW 328i, that allowed Rodger to live in the college community of Isla Vista. He bought his three handguns with money saved from gifts from grandparents and the $500 a month his father sent him, according to Rodger's writing......

Then you have this Occupy Wall Street punk who is on trial for assaulting a cop............

The jailed Occupy Wall Street protester who defiantly basked in the spotlight while on trial for elbowing a cop threw a tantrum as she was dragged into court on separate case Wednesday.

Cecily McMillan, 25, loudly wailed as she was led into the courtroom in handcuffs with her hair tied up messily and her gray T-shirt untucked. The sobbing continued throughout the first part of the brief Manhattan Criminal Court hearing at which prosecutors offered her community service and possible anger management and counseling in exchange for a guilty plea.

“She’s not happy — like every other inmate at Rikers Island,” said her attorney, Martin Stolar, after the hearing.

Stolar said crying had to do with the Department of Correction not giving her the right court day outfit, and because court staff would not take her handcuffs off in accordance with normal procedure for inmates.

Really? Big, bad ass, protestor can't do without her correct outfit?

And then we have Sandra Fluke who seems to believe that a middle class Catholic family in Kansas City should pay for her birth control while she loans her political campaign $100,000.........

Sandra Fluke, the free-birth-control and women's rights advocate, has complained over the course of her campaign for California State Senate that women do not have equal access to campaign funds as men do. Yet Fluke loaned herself $100,000 in campaign funds for the race in the 26th district, according to a new report by Bloomberg News.

Fluke has led fundraising in the race over the past two months. Her female Democratic rival, Manhattan Beach Mayor Amy Howorth, has the most cash-on-hand, trumping the top male candidate in the race, Ben Allen. (Allen is also the beneficiary of large independent expenditures by businessman Bill Bloomfield.)

Two of Fluke's campaign mailers mention her famous 2012 tussle with radio host Rush Limbaugh. One says: "Sandra Fluke Fought Rush Limbaugh and Won. Imagine What She Will DO in Sacramento," Bloomberg notes. A copy of the mailer can be found on Fluke's Facebook page by clicking here.

Bloomberg News also notes that Fluke and her husband own a home in West Hollywood--where the median home value is $645,000--which they bought before she went to law school at Georgetown.

In all these cases, we have almost a pathological belief among these people that they deserve everything because they simply exist. In the first two cases we can see the results when these people are finally confronted with adversity. And it's pretty ugly.

Thank you Dr. Spock and the baby boomers for inflicting these heathens on sane society.

These guys are like the Shriners in a parade without the minibikes and small cars..........

The State Department’s Counter Terrorism (CT) Bureau apologized on Tuesday for promoting a controversial Muslim scholar whose organization has reportedly backed Hamas and endorsed a fatwa authorizing the murder of U.S. soldiers in Iraq.

The apology came on the heels of a Friday Washington Free Beacon report detailing the CT Bureau’s promotion of Sheik Abdallah Bin Bayyah, the vice president of a radical Muslim scholars group that was founded by a radical Muslim Brotherhood leader who has called “for the death of Jews and Americans.”

Bin Bayyah himself is one of several clerics who endorsed a 2004 fatwa, or religious order, endorsing the killing of U.S. soldiers fighting in Iraq.

When will the media types get that this guys give incompetence a bad name.............

The CIA’s top officer in Kabul was exposed Saturday by the White House when his name was inadvertently included on a list provided to news organizations of senior U.S. officials participating in President Obama’s surprise visit with U.S. troops.

The White House recognized the mistake and quickly issued a revised list that did not include the individual, who had been identified on the initial release as the “Chief of Station” in Kabul, a designation used by the CIA for its highest-ranking spy in a country.

The disclosure marked a rare instance in which a CIA officer working overseas had his cover — the secrecy meant to protect his actual identity — pierced by his own government. The only other recent case came under significantly different circumstances, when former CIA operative Valerie Plame was exposed as officials of the George W. Bush administration sought to discredit her husband, a former ambassador and fierce critic of the decision to invade Iraq.

More....

Of course, this reported dropped the popular meme that Bushies intentionally outed Plame, when we actually know that it was a state department blabbermouth named Richard Armitage who had nothing to do with the Bushies.

But why let the facts get in the way of a good narrative.

According to a new study, pedophiles’ brains are “abnormally tuned” to find young children attractive.

Lead Researcher Jorge Ponseti from the University of Kiel in Germany says now it may be possible to diagnose pedophiles before they are able to offend.

The researchers found that pedophiles have the same neurological reaction to images of those they find attractive as those of people with ordinary sexual predilections. A pedophile’s relevant cerebral areas become engaged when they see children. When an adult finds someone attractive, their occipital areas become engaged, but this is inverted for pedophiles.

The researchers believe this is proof that there is a neural pattern behind a pedophile’s behavior.

Instead of gun control how about some parental control

(Warning ......This post is rated NC -17 for foul content)

The more I read about this asshole in Santa Barbara the more I want to beat the hell out of his parents.

Why?

To start with, their ability after the fact to blame the NRA for his ability to purchase guns.

Really?

Let's start with the fact that in all these stories, not one mentions his relationships with his coworkers.

What's the significance of that you might ask?

Because to have co workers you would need to have a fucking job. Has anyone asked how this shit head was able to buy 3 - 9mm pistols? Where did he get the money?  In Ohio, these guns would cost at least $400 a piece. I'm thinking that in California the cost would exceed $1500. Did either of his parents look at a credit card bill and say "shit Junior what did you buy at Bob's Gun Shop for $1500?".

The cops found 41 magazines in his possession. I just bought 2 magazines for my Ruger .380 LCP and they cost about $38 a piece. 40-10 round clips I would think would be $40; $1600 all together.

The ammo probably cost an extra $200.00

So this kid had the ability to purchase $3200.00 of guns and ammo with what? His charming good looks and rants about sorority girls?

Let's not forget the BMW and Armani sunglasses he was tooling around in to deliver his death sentences.

This kid was a hot mess and you let him have carte blanche purchasing power?

Fortunately, gun advocates have been able to switch the debate from one of guns to one of mental health. But this kid, like many of the others, had a lot of access to mental health services. I'd be willing to bet nearly all of them have been on psychotropic drugs. All of them had access to guns, not because there was a market to buy them but because, the people closest to these douche bags paid for them.

This punk needed less mental health treatment and more ass beatings in his life. Less gun control and more emotional impulse training. More parental involvement and less free time to pursue jerk off activities like hours playing videos games.

Let's face it. Had this punk actually had to get a job and work for those guns he might have slipped into a more productive use for his time and money.

The bottom line is this putrid piece of shit was delivered to the public from his parent in a kick ass BMW. If they made him get a job, he at least would have use some of that money for gas instead of another magazine.
