The desperation amid the Obama administration officials is palpable. Despite their protestations explanations of “privacy” as an excuse to hide shipments of illegal aliens, the stark reality makes the claims seem silly.
The reason the Obama administration wants to keep the buses and planes secret is simply because they do not want the political optic of roadblocks all around the nation where people are protesting the shipments. Usurpation needs the shadow to operate effectively. Sunlight represents a risk.

There’s nothing about telling a Governor “how many”, “where” and “when” that would violate any privacy.   Stating otherwise is simply ridiculous.
The people are awake.
The goals of the administration are desperate to avoid sunlight.

Yesterday with grand circumstance Harry Reid proclaimed unequivocally:  “The Border Is Secure“.
Today, Ed Henry asks the White House the same question:

A recent report into the inside contacts surrounding a Hamas / Israeli negotiated ceasefire confirms –with exact precision– what we predicted was happening at the time.

(Via WFB) Secretary of State John Kerry offered numerous times to fly to Cairo or Jerusalem to assist in cease-fire negotiations but was told that the sides “didn’t need American mediation,” according to an account of events by Haaretz.
Senior Israeli officials told Haaretz that Kerry offered to come to directly join the talks in each and every call during the attempted brokering of a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas on Monday, but was “politely rejected” by all sides.
Egypt wanted to prove that it could play its traditional diplomatic role with regards to Gaza without U.S. assistance. Israel thought that a visit by Kerry would make it look like the United States pressured Israel to make a deal, which would have been a public relations victory for Hamas. (more…)

(Kurt Schlichter) Liberals will tell you that the IRS scandal is a “phony scandal,” apparently because using the federal government as a tool of oppression against one’s political opponents is A-OK as long as the ones using it are liberals and the ones being oppressed are conservatives.
Remember, scratch a liberal and it’ll bleed fascist brown.
So why not start off your discussion with your liberal conversationalist pal by posing that basic question:  Is it okay, or is it not okay, to use federal agencies to harass and persecute your political opponents?
Now to us, because we are decent people and real Americans, the answer is “No,” but most hardcore liberals truly believe that it’s absolutely acceptable for Barack Obama to oppress his political opponents using the federal agencies under his control.  To them, the rules and rights that protect all Americans only protect all Americans that they agree with.

(Via Wall Street Journal) Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl hasn’t spoken to his family since he was released from captivity in Pakistan, according to an Army official.

Sgt. Bergdahl has refused to see his parents or speak to them on the phone, the official said. The decision by Sgt. Bergdahl, who returned to regular duty on Monday, suggests a deeper estrangement between the soldier and his parents than the military understood when he was released. Still, officials said, they don’t know the precise cause of the tension or when it began. (more…)

This might not come as a surprise to many, heck, actually anyone who knows the depths the Republican Establishment class of professional liars;  but thanks to the continued digging and efforts of Charles C Johnson, and Team McDaniel in Mississippi, Karl Rove is exposed yet again.   LIAR !

Rove is not called a “Decepticon” for nothing:

Reconcile the above 6/20/2014 contribution of $50,000 from Karl Rove and American Crossroads with their prior statements: (more…)

(Via RedState Erick Erickson)  I can confirm that the attack ads in Mississippi run by “All Citizens for Mississippi” were funded by Senate Republicans, including Senators Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, Rob Portman, Bob Corker, and Roy Blunt. It appears our Senate Republican leaders are willing to risk losing a Senate majority so long as they can get their own re-elected. Yes folks, it is true. I can confirm what we all suspected.

The advertisements attacked Mississippi State Senator Chris McDaniel and painted conservative Republicans and tea party activists as racists. According to documents filed with the Federal Elections Commission, All Citizens for Mississippi received funding from a Haley Barbour backed group called Mississippi Conservatives.
Mississippi Conservatives, in turn, was funded in part by Sally Bradshaw of the RNC’s Growth and Opportunity Project, former RNC Chairman and Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour, the United States Chamber of Commerce, and the political action committees created for Senators Mitch McConnell ($50,000), John Cornyn ($50,000), Rob Portman ($25,000), Bob Corker ($25,000), and Roy Blunt ($5,000).

WHITE HOUSE – Top White House officials had an hour-long meeting with a group of scholars and activists calling for the inclusion of girls of color in President Obama’s signature racial justice program known as My Brother’s Keeper.
The meeting included the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has championed MBK, and top activists and academics who signed a letter criticizing the initiative for focusing on boys and young men of color without a corollary for girls of color.
Sharpton, reached via e-mail, described the meeting as “constructive.”
A White House official sent She The People this readout from the meeting: (more…)

Harry Reid declares unequivocally (@:50) “The border is secure”…

….. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain…. move along, move along, nothing to see here folks….  Look at the cute squirrels playing bocce ball behind the camera man.   “Secure border” folks, “Secure Border”….. “S-E-C-U-R-E  B-O-R-D-E-R”.. Yessireee!

“The Border Is Secure”…

Here we go again.  Remember the debates in congress about the definition of “is” ?

It’s just how they roll.   The Democrats in DC will not allow changes to the 2008 law they claim is the source of the problem for unaccompanied minors, ie. “the border crisis”, unless the GOP cough up the $3.7 billion that Obama claims is needed because the law has not been changed….. 

…. Nonsensical, yeah, we know, but that’s the Democrats’ position and they’re sticking to it.

WASHINGTON DC – Republicans and Democrats in the House are clashing over whether changes to a 2008 human trafficking law should be included in emergency legislation for the border.
Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Tuesday morning said he would seek to link changes to the trafficking law to the emergency funding, with Republicans making a final decision on their strategy by the end of the week.
Republicans have blamed the influx of children at the border on the 2008 law, which they say has served as an incentive for people to enter the United States. The law allows minors entering the country from Central America, but not Mexico, to request asylum hearings.
House Democrats are balking at the push, arguing the debate over the trafficking law should be kept separate. (more…)
