Mrs. Clinton is proud of accomplishments that no-one, even herself, can name.

“Mythical Accomplishments” should have been the name of her new book.   Then again, maybe she is genuinely proud of the 2010 Global U.S. Apology Tour, as she spent almost an entire year apologizing to heads of state for what was written about them by her State Department team and released by WikiLeaks.

WASHINGTON DC – Hillary Rodham Clinton writes in new excerpts from her upcoming book that she wishes she could go back and reconsider some of her past decisions but she is “proud of what we accomplished” during her time as secretary of state.

Did anyone ever see Marlon Brando in “The Island of Dr. Moreau“?  Just sayin’… /SD

Clinton, a potential 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, writes in an author’s note released Tuesday that her four years running the State Department for President Barack Obama taught her about the United States’ “exceptional strengths and what it will take for us to compete and thrive at home and abroad.”

“As is usually the case with the benefit of hindsight, I wish we could go back and revisit certain choices. But I’m proud of what we accomplished,” Clinton writes. “This century began traumatically for our country, with the terrorist attacks on 9/11, the long wars that followed, and the Great Recession. We needed to do better, and I believe we did.” (more…)

The NAACP vows litigation vengeance if the Myrtle Beach Mayor tries to stop the violence or cancel future events.

SOUTH CAROLINA – […]  “I don’t know if there’s anything I could say that could satisfy our residents and the business community in our city right now,” said Myrtle Beach Mayor John Rhodes.

WMBF News spoke with the Mayor on Monday to see if the city has plans to make changes to Memorial Day Weekend security in the future to prevent crime.  The short answer is yes.

“I’m fed up with it; I’m mad as hell about it,” added Rhodes.  “Something has to be done and whatever we have to do to correct this thing, that’s the direction we’re going in.”

This triple homicide is one of five shootings in Myrtle Beach in less than 48 hours.  Rhodes said this crime trend does not reflect the true Myrtle Beach. (more…)

(Via Kurt Schlichter)  Liberals have a new word for what normal people call “success.” They call it “privilege,” as if a happy, prosperous life is the result of some magic process related to where your great-great-great-grandfather came from.

It’s the latest leftist argument tactic, which means it is a tactic designed to prevent any argument and to beat you into rhetorical submission.

Conservatives, don’t play their game.

It’s easy to see that this notion that accomplishment comes not from hard work but from some mysterious force, operating out there in the ether, is essential to liberal thought. To excuse the dole-devouring layabouts who form so much of the Democrat voting base, it is critical that they undermine the achievements of those who support themselves. We can’t have the American people thinking that hard work leads to success; people might start asking why liberal constituencies don’t just work harder instead of demanding more money from those who actually produce something.

Eight people shot by Elliot Rogers 24/7 media coverage. Yet same Day Eight people shot in Myrtle Beach rampage. Media? ((crickets)) Why?

“Three killed, five wounded in Myrtle Beach shootings“….

….or so goes the Politically Correct CNN headline.   Considering there were only two homocides in 2013 one would think this headline would lead to questions.   Eight people shot in Myrtle beach – during one shooting spree and three of them dead?

Isn’t that actually more people than were shot by a Hollywood Socialite yesterday ?  Yet, we don’t see wall-to-wall CNN media coverage of this one….  Why is that ?

Alas, a little further research and you discover this specific shooting spree has an element the PC media just cannot discuss.   It’s Black Bike Week.   From their website:

Now it’s it’s time for Black Bike Week 2014 The Revolution!  Black Bike Week’s Back!! and Black Bike Week Back is GROWING!!    No Helment law, No Noise Ordinance, No haters, AND MORE PEOPLE

Over 500,000+ People will be hitting the Myrtle Beach Area for 4 days of non stop riding, partying, and fun! “if you can stay long you def should!!!

Note how in the CNN article they make no mention of the event, and note how even in the Carolina article (below) they obfuscate the event removing the self-identified, and self-promoted, racial aspect of the event in favor of a disingenuous “Bike Week” label.   Political Correctness running amuck.

USA TODAY – It also follows intense criticism over the treatment of veterans at VA hospitals, including reports that officials are trying to cover up evidence of long wait times and that some veterans have died while awaiting treatment.

In his weekend radio address, Obama said the nation must work harder to ensure that military veterans get the benefits they’ve earned.

“They’ve done their duty,” Obama said, “and they ask nothing more than that this country does ours.”

The president is not scheduled to meet with Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai, with whom the president has had a difficult relationship.

Actually what Rep. Walorski is really doing is outlining exactly why the GOP is ridiculously represented by weak and ineffective leadership like John Boehner and Mitch McConnell.

How much more value would it be for conservatives to have actual, and tolerable, leadership who could engage the media -without looking like pompous jackasses- and outline the real obstructionism?    

Heck, even the most partisan of GOP supporters would admit the ability of Boehner and McConnell to frame a discussion without sounding like they just drank a fifth of scotch with a mouth full of marbles is non-existent.   The problem is not the conservative message, it’s the ineptitude of the messenger. 

(WASHINGTON DC)  –  While the president pounds his fist and proclaims he’s “madder than hell” over the Veterans Affairs scandal and then just asks for more time to review and investigate, House Republicans are getting pretty tired of the do-nothing Senate and a president who claims to only learn about problems in his administration on cable news.

Rep. Jackie Walorski, R-Ind., sits on the Veterans’ Affairs Committee in the House and she told [Larry O’Connor] Wednesday on WMAL radio in Washington, D.C., that the House has passed a dozen bills for reform of the VA and they are collecting dust on [Sen.] Harry Reid’s desk: (more…)

Unlike the socially hip meme toward the missing/kidnapped Nigerian Schoolgirls, and unlike a black Harvard Professor arrested by police -and quickly defined by the White House as “acting stupidly”-; and unlike a 17-year-old disciplinary diversion student killed in the act of attacking a Hispanic man, the plight of an American citizen’s wife -soon to be hanged merely for being Christian- does not rise to the level of being #hashtag worthy.   Heck, it doesn’t even rise to the level of State Dept. ‘Give-A-Damn’.

The remarkable aspect -beyond the obvious- is actually American Daniel Wani asking the State Department for help and being told to go away.    Maybe he’s the wrong kind of black man; a Christian kind.

(Via Fox News)  An American citizen whose pregnant wife has been sentenced to death in Sudan for refusing to renounce her Christian faith told Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren Friday that his wife is staying strong in her convictions despite her ordeal.

Meriam Yehya Ibrahim, 27, whose Christian husband Daniel Wani holds American citizenship, has been held in a Sudanese prison along with her 20-month old son for more than three months. (more…)

I’m going to outline the soup to nuts case of an Iran-Contra type weapons program that ultimately is at the heart of why President Obama and Secretary Clinton went to such lengths to cover-up the Benghazi operations. [context matters – sorry about the length.  /SD]

In December 2011 the New York Times published an article outlining the U.S. State Department initiative to buy shoulder fired missiles (MANPADS) away from the “rebels” in Libya.   (Story Here)

In February 2012 the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs Andrew J. Shapiro said:

“Once the stalemate broke [in Libya] and the fighting rapidly shifted in the [Libya’s Transitional National Council] TNC’s favor in August, we immediately deployed a State Department expert from the MANPADS Task Force to Benghazi.

Mark Adams, who you will hear from shortly on the panel, is the head of our MANPADS Task Force and spent considerable time on the ground in Libya … The initial primary objective was to reach an agreement with the TNC to set up a MANPADS control and destruction program that would enable us to set up what we call our Phase I efforts. Phase I entailed an effort to rapidly survey, secure, and disable loose MANPADS across the country. To accomplish this, we immediately deployed our Quick Reaction Force, which are teams made up of civilian technical specialists”.   (link)

Ultimately, The question for the Gowdy Special Committee is what were we doing with those missiles we were purchasing?   Where did they go ?   Was that operation the entire construct of the joint State Dept/CIA objective in Benghazi?…  And if so, was the missile capture an Iran-Contra type weapons scheme to divert missiles from Libya, through Turkey, into the hands of the Syrian “rebels”.

THAT is the substantive issue the Special Committee should seek. (more…)
