As the Obama Administration and a Compliant Lame Stream Media Continue the Benghazi Spin...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny From the lame stream media, no doubt fed by the not to be trusted Obama administration, we are hearing more false spin from dutiful left wing wing nuts. The Washington Post The Romney campaign may have misfired with its suggestion that statements by President Obama and U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice about the Benghazi attack last month weren’t supported by intelligence, according to documents provided by a senior U.S. intelligence official. “Talking points” prepared by the CIA on Sept. 15, the same day that Rice taped three television appearances, support her description of the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate as a reaction to Arab anger about an anti-Muslim video prepared in the United States. According to the CIA account, “The currently available information suggests that the demonstrations in Benghazi were spontaneously inspired by the protests at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo and evolved into a direct assault agains
It's Going To Be Close, Brace Yourself For Continued Polarization of America, Especially if Obama Loses...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny The race is close, very close, with the momentum shifting to Romney. However, my take is the shift, as significant as it has been, came too late and too little. Progressives no doubt are biting their nails because as much as they prefer not to acknowledge it, this one is a real cliff hanger. Reminiscent of 2000. It is true if Obama loses this one progressives throughout the land will be wailing and gnashing their teeth. For them it will be a great undoing of their greatest hopes and dreams. Of course the other fifty percent of America will view it quite differently. So, as the polls close tomorrow, and the tabulating of the vote goes late into the night, we can be sure of a few thing... The nation will remain polarized, the puppet masters behind the curtains will continue calling the shots, the debt and deficits will continue, no mater who wins. And America will continue to ask why. Tomorrow, as I visit my polli
Another Republican Accused Of Sexual Misconduct...
David French had the following to say regarding Roy Moore and his alleged sexual misconduct 40 years ago. Conservatives, be careful. Don’t dismiss the claims. While I don’t know if the allegations are true, I’m deeply troubled on a number of grounds. First, these women didn’t seek out the press. According to the Post report, its reporters reached out to them after hearing that “Moore allegedly had sought relationships with teenage girls.” So far as we know, they weren’t put forward by the opposing campaign, and the woman who made the most serious allegations against Moore says that she voted for Trump in 2016. None of the women have donated to Moore’s primary or general-election opponent. Second, if you read the report, it includes validation from a number of witnesses who say that they were aware of the relationships at the time. While this isn’t proof of guilt of course, it bolsters the credibility of the accusers. Third, the youngest accuser’s explanation for her decision n
The "Scandal" That Won't Go Away...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Lib erty -vs- Tyr anny CBS - Obama administration officials who were in key positions on Sept. 11, 2012, acknowledge that a range of mistakes were made the night of the attacks on the U.S. missions in Benghazi, and in messaging to Congress and the public in the aftermath. The officials spoke to CBS News in a series of interviews and communications under the condition of anonymity so that they could be more frank in their assessments. They do not all agree on the list of mistakes and it's important to note that they universally claim that any errors or missteps did not cost lives and reflect "incompetence rather than malice or cover up." Nonetheless, in the eight months since the attacks, this is the most sweeping and detailed discussion by key players of what might have been done differently. "We're portrayed by Republicans as either being lying or idiots," said one Obama administration official who was part

Illinois Democrats Move To Tighten Firearm Regulation/Restrictions...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny As the country struggles to understand, and come to grips with random acts of firearm violence by unstable and unbalanced individuals Illinois is already taking action to further regulate firearms. Like the millions of law abiding citizens I am torn between the right to bear firearms and finding the point at which it makes logical sense to restrict that right. In a modern society in which the tools of warfare are advanced beyond what the founders could possibly have envisioned, and the efficiency of modern armies are such that the citizens would stand no reasonable chance against the modern army, does the possession of semiautomatic assault weapons have any real purpose for the homeowner and sportsman? If deemed they do should they not be highly regulated and restricted to HELP reduce the incidents of tragedies like Sandy Hook? I certainly do not have the answers, nor do I believe the anti-gun crowd has the answers eith
The Public's Trust In Government on the Decline...
A PEW Research Center report shows Americans trust in their government has become less positive and at the same time more partisan. Since 2015, opinions about the federal government’s handling of several major issues have become less positive and much more partisan. Yet majorities continue to say the government should have a “major role” on such issues as defending against terrorism and helping lift people from poverty. And views about government’s role, unlike its performance, have changed only modestly over the past two year. Public trust in government, meanwhile, remains close to a historic low. Just 18% say they trust the federal government to do the right thing “just about always” or “most of the time” – a figure that has changed very little for more than a decade. And while more Republicans say they trust the government today than did so during the Obama administration, just 22% of Republicans and even fewer Democrats (15%) say they trust the government at least most of th
Nancy Pelosi Showing Again She Has Little if Any Grasp of Reality...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny This from the Queen of gimmickry. The Hill - House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday rejected the House GOP’s three-month plan to increase the debt ceiling. A spokesman for Pelosi said that the bill coming to the floor next week, which would raise the debt ceiling with the condition that Congress will not get paid if the House and Senate fail to pass a budget, is a "gimmick." “This is a gimmick unworthy of the challenges we face and the national debate we should be having. The message from the American people is clear: no games, no default,” Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said. He called for a “clean” debt-ceiling increase without conditions. “We need a clean debt ceiling increase and a bipartisan and balanced budget that protects Medicare and Social Security, invests in the future, and responsibly reduces the deficit,” he said. “This proposal does not relieve the uncertainty faced by s
Our Biggest Creditor {China} Tells Us "The good old days of borrowing are over"
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace o Independent Conservatism Liberty -vs- Tyranny As the chickens come home to roast... Unbelievable we have been this stupid. ( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers. "They discussed the euro area and the U.S. debt downgrade. Both agreed the importance of working together, monitoring the situation closely
ReplyDelete"Anger dwells only in the bosom of fools." --Albert Einstein
That is an irrational and foolish reaction to this tragedy.
Yes it is. A response shared by many frightened people.
ReplyDeleteGet ready for 24/7 non stop FOX News fuelling the bonfires.
Radicalized Islamic terrorists are a huge problem and threat to the civilized world. However, not all Muslims are terrorists and there are Muslim leaders, the President of Egypt for one, who are speaking against the terrorist insanity. These are the people who must not be alienated.
Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, leader of the Islamic State, has made his strategy known: He WANTS to foment a paradigm war between the secular democracies of the West and militant jihadis of the Islamic world. His purpose behind brutal and savage tactics is to engender mutual enmity and foment a vicious cycle of reprisals and revenge. Atrocities are recruitment tools, and bloggers – in adding fuel to the fire of mutual hatred through incitement - fall sucker to these tactics. They are giving al Qaeda and Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi exactly what they want.
ReplyDeleteYou will not defeat extremism by wantonly and gratuitously stereotyping every person of the Islamic faith, thus feeding into this vicious cycle … which serves as a recruitment tool for terrorists.
Subject blogger and his followers are more than “unhinged” and “irrational.” They are also IRRESPONSIBLE in the extreme! However, there is more than merely self-righteous indignation on display in subject blog. The man is a shameless pathological narcissist who calls attention to himself, grandstands, and broadcasts his grandiosity without regard to the implications of his blather. Please note how subject discussion thread beneath subject post metastasizes cancer-like into a rage against the French, against ‘Zionist communists,’ against the Jews, against old WWII grudges, and of course “libruls.” The place is a veritable cesspool of hatred.
"..,not all Muslims are terrorists.." They are in the twisted, xenophobic minds who advocate deporting Americans of the Muslim faith, and they are the same type of American who would have applauded the internment of Americans of Japanese heritage during WWII. It is endlessly amusing to read their rantings about this issue--deporting American born Muslims, because they are the same people who bloviate constantly about how Mr. Obama is lawless and "shreds" the Constitution. Meanwhile, when we read of terrorism here or abroad, their first reaction is to...wait for it...SHRED THE CONSTITUTION AND DEPORT AMERICANS WHO PRACTICE A FAITH THEY HATE. Whew. There's so much stupid in that idea, one wonders if they've gone all funny in the head.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to find good press on Muslims. Meanwhile, huge
ReplyDeletemedia notes:
"Murdoch Says Muslims Must Be Held Responsible For France Terror Attacks News Corp boss tweets to say even peaceful Muslims must bear burden of deadly Charlie Hebdo death toll ‘until they destroy growing jihadist cancer’ .
Murdoch, of course, is foolish. During the reign of terror from the domestic terrorist group, the KKK, were all Christians worldwide held responsible for the murders they committed?
DeleteWere all Christians worldwide held responsible for the genocide Christians in Germany and other European countries committed against the Jews and other minorities? The Catholic Church in Germany was the strongest, and yet I don't recall in reading history, any prelate condemning Hitler for killing Jews. Most members of the Nazi Party were Christians. Composed mostly by members of the Lutheran Evangelical tradition, members of the apostate Nazi-inspired Positive Christianity sect and some of the Catholic faith tradition respectively.
Isn't that part of the issue BB? Why is it our job, from the US to police this? Why can't, or won't, Arab countries with strong Muslim populations take care of this? Why are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?
ReplyDeleteAt some point, in the 21st century, it does not seem unreasonable to ask why this continues to happen and if there is anything that can be done to stop it.
Dave asked: "Why can't, or won't, Arab countries with strong Muslim populations take care of this? Why are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?"
DeleteMOST of the Muslim/'Arab countries are extreme, radical, and genocidal. There are only a very few which recognize the rights of Israelis to live. The rest have an open call for complete extermination/expulsion.
Even the supposedly moderate UAE is led by those who want to kill off the Israelis. Their refusal to condemn this terrorism goes hand in hand with their genocidal views.
IMO, Dave, the subject countries are examples of a state religion; the mullahs, etc being very
Deletepowerful inside those governments. I agree, given the aid and support we provide some of those countries, we should have some clout, but apparently not.
My above comment was about the stance of the government of these countries and their official policies when i said "MOST of...."
Delete"Subject blogger and his followers are more than 'unhinged' and 'irrational' .They are also IRRESPONSIBLE in the extreme!”
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be the only way fearful people know how to react to disturbing world and domestic events. We can be thankful no one like that is in charge of any levers of power in the government.
When I read that sort of psychotic rhetoric, I can't help but imagine that the person who indulges in it looks and acts like THIS.
There can be little if any question but what "subject blogger and his followers" would act like your links depiction. However I imagine they likely would look much worse.
ReplyDeleteFree Nazi over there said: "Do I think all Muslims should be killed?
ReplyDeleteOf COURSE NOT. However, I do most fervently believe they should be driven out of all the Western Countries, then SEGREGATED, ISOLATED "
Of course. Once they are all "isolated" then it makes it so easy for FreeColClink to kill them all.
Shaw said: "and they are the same type of American who would have applauded the internment of Americans of Japanese heritage during WWII"
Well, I find little difference between that WWII situation and FleaBathe's call for ethnic cleansing of all considered to be "Muslims".
RN: I had not been there for weeks. Gee, they sure use the Constitution for toilet paper over there don't they?
It certainly seems so. Too bad really but it is what it is and it seems to be getting worse.
DeleteWhy are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?
DeleteShort answer. Because no other nation has crafted or originated a system of government so sensitive, so up-to-the-minute, so comprehensively fair and so much self-regulating as has the fledgling republic, the United States of America.
Simply stated, it is not fair to compare other systems of governance to our own.
So, what do we do differently in the light of all this, RN?
DeletePerhaps properly warranted surveilance of the of those involved in actual terror mosques. And for God's sake, stop funding the actual terrorists (no more mistakes like sending a billion US taxpayer dollars to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt).
This last one should be basic. If we can't even do this, we probably can't do anything.
Other suggestions?
Flying Junior: I agree. I think.
DeleteWith this caveat; As bad as our system of government can be it remains the best system yet devised by humans. Until recently (think in terms of the past 30 years or so) the nation has systematically improved on the imperfect system originally designed by our founders. It seems the reactionary wing of the Tea Party is bent on returning us to the unenlightened middle ages.
It may very well be "fair" to compare other systems of government to our own if we wish. What is not fair is to attempt to force our system of government, our values, or our principles on another culture, their value system, or their government.
We have every right to defend our own system and values on our shores. We have no right to meddle in the affairs of other nations unless they ask us to or unless we do so because of an act of aggression against our people and nation.
... stop funding the actual terrorists ...
ReplyDeletedmarks: PRECISELY!
Thanks... I was just thinking, aside form the arguments over the balance between security and persecution.... and over military intervention... I'd think that the one simple thing is that we should stop directly funding the terrorists. Seems relatively simple.
DeleteAnother example proving yet again the narrow minded intolerance and hate some on the right pride themselves on.
