For us political junkies we well understand the political metaphor “building a firewall”.   It implies changing strategy to fend off pending doom by retreating your position to a specific geography and terrain easier to defend.   You can tell when fire lines change position based on a careful following of campaign money.   The money is used to protect the candidates behind the protective fire line.

Prior to the Benghazi explosions, and subsequent distractions, the “inside-the-beltway” left-leaning conversation was about watching Mitt Romney supporting Super-Pacs and where they place their money.

If the Pro-Romney SuperPacs left the battleground states it was proclaimed to be an indicator of Romney weakness as they would focus their financial efforts on targeted races to shore up the House, and attempt to take the Senate.   In short the fallback position to losing the White House.

Now however, the exact same scenario is unfolding, except it is the Democrat Super Pacs pulling out and retreating the fire line.  As shared by the New York Times: (more…)

We say “resurface” because we’ve documented the issue before, but actually for most observers this might be the first time they have heard about this.

WASHINGTON DC – President Obama reelection campaign, rattled by his Wednesday night debate performance, could be in for even worse news. According to knowlegable sources, a national magazine and a national web site are preparing a blockbuster donor scandal story.

Sources told Secrets that the Obama campaign has been trying to block the story. But a key source said it plans to publish the story Friday or, more likely, Monday. (more…)

Stephanie Cutter, Obama’s #1 campaign spokesperson, was on CNN last night filled with rage, anxiety and brutally obvious desperation, after the deconstruction of her candiate during the first Presidential Debate….   It even became “physically obvious” when she broke out in a stress induced nerve rash mid-way through the interview.

Mid-way through the interview she must have been stressed, because her chest and neck broke out in a visible rash.

Teacher now under investigation for openly displaying the indoctrination initiatives.

Pennsylvania – A Philadelphia high school teacher is under investigation after she reportedly ordered a student to take off a t-shirt supporting Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign and compared the shirt to a Ku Klux Klan sheet.

The incident occurred at Charles Carroll High School in Port Richmond. When the student refused the order, she tried to throw the student out of class.

The teacher told the 16-year-old student that the high school was a “Democratic school” and then threatened to use a marker to cross out Romney’s name. […] (more…)

FLORIDA – A Florida school district is considering a plan to install surveillance cameras on cafeteria trash cans to monitor what kids are throwing away – after they discovered that students were tossing out their federally-mandated fruit and vegetables.

The Lake County School Board said more than $75,000 worth of vegetables have been thrown in the garbage. The veggies and fresh fruit are party of the Obama administration’s policy to force schools to provide healthy produce in lunch rooms.

“It’s fairly specific recipe of what they would like us to serve,” Lake County School Board member Tod Howard told Fox News. “Unfortunately, much of it has to do with fresh fruit and vegetables and it seems to be going into the trash. And that’s not okay.”

School districts across the nation are furious with the Obama administration’s orders. Some students have staged strikes while others have launched petition drives urging the federal government to change their policy.

But Lake County is believed to be the first to actually videotape kids tossing their veggies – and that has some parents upset.  (article)

“Monitor #9, be advised Susie Tompkins just threw away an unauthorized number of carrorts“…

U.S. President Barack Obama issued a new executive order last week to fight human trafficking, touting his administration’s handling of the issue.

“When a little boy is kidnapped, turned into a child soldier, forced to kill or be killed — that’s slavery,” Obama said in a speech at the Clinton Global Initiative. “It is barbaric, and it is evil, and it has no place in a civilized world. Now, as a nation, we’ve long rejected such cruelty.”

But for the third year in a row, Obama has waived almost all U.S. sanctions that would punish certain countries that use child soldiers, upsetting many in the human rights community. (more…)

You know a video touches a nerve when the DNC, and the media simultaneously react to diminish it. Less than an hour from the time Hannity reported on the Daily Caller video the Legacy media was in full Defense mode. Unreal.

Newt focuses on the transferable attributes.

“It’s a reminder of the depth of dishonesty, the appeals to racism, the factual falsehoods that are at the heart of the modern left. What then Senator Obama said was factually false. New Orleans got far more money than New York City. New Orleans got a great deal of money that was not matched by the Stafford Act… Factual inaccuracies are at the heart of the modern left. If they have to rely on the facts they’ll lose every time.“
