Obama Administration Cuts Israel Out of Intelligence On Iran – Secretary Kerry Concerned About Leaks…

ObamaLast week Secretary John Kerry said no-one should trust anyone else’s opinion on the Iranian deal/negotiations because no-one knows the specifics.

However, if that’s accurate, then why is Kerry/Obama claiming today they are concerned about “leaks” and worried about what Benjamin Netanyahu may, or may not, say tomorrow?

An article today highlights the Obama administration’s decision to cut Israel out of the information pipeline due to the possibility that Israel would expose the details of any intelligence information.

This is a ridiculous U.S. assertion for multiple reasons; not the least of which is A.) Israel has far more accurate intelligence regarding Iran, and, B.) Israel would be the recipient of any adverse consequence from such a security compromise.

What President Obama and Secretary Kerry are more likely concerned with is Netanyahu exposing a reality that Obama and Kerry are hiding information and misleading congress. (more…)

That’s Their Story, and They’re Sticking To It – Mysterious Canadian Tunnel a “Man Cave” ?

The tunnel was discovered a month ago, however Canadian authorities only recently released information. In the woods near the venue for the 2015 Pan Am games, a Canadian conservation worker stumbled upon a piece of sheet metal. When she lifted the metal she discovered a big hole, it was a tunnel’s entrance.

Canadian authorities are somewhat playing down the discovery. However, the scope and sophistication of the tunnel reflects this was being constructed with a very specific intention in mind. Curiouser, and curiouser….

The Notoriously Corrupt Atlanta Public School Superintendent, Beverly Hall, Dies While Under Indictment…

beverly hallIn 2009 President Obama’s Education Department named Atlanta’s Beverly Hall “School Superintendent of The Year”, the educational equivalent of the Nobel Prize.

Ironically, that same year it was discovered that Mrs. Hall led the largest cheating scandal in public education history in order to achieve the remarkable educational results.

In 2011, facing a growing investigation, Mrs. Hall retired – and throughout 2011, 2012 and 2013 a Georgia Bureau of Investigation criminal inquiry took place. After two years 36 educators under the leadership of Beverly Hall were indicted for a massive institutional race-based cheating scandal.

Today the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports Mrs. Hall died – her legacy, her illegal legacy, her cheating legacy, remaining: (more…)

At Least One Reporter “Gets It” – The Elite Media are Disconnected From America…

media swarm 1(Via TRIBLIVE) The media’s elitists just keep getting you wrong, America.

And this has nothing to do with whether something is or isn’t a “gotcha” question, because that is always the easy excuse for any candidate who is unhappy with a news story.

The root of the problem is how Washington and New York media view Americans and their values beyond the powerful, wealthy and intellectually elite world; it is a much deeper, disturbing and, yes, dangerous problem than the silly questions.

Last week the DC-New York media responded in epic fashion to former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s comment that he didn’t think President Obama “loves” America. They nearly tripped over themselves to ask every potential GOP presidential contender if he agreed with Giuliani; their braying eventually led to mocking Christians. (more…)

Clearing The Range – Former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley *Was* Considering A Presidential Bid…

… and then something conspicuously and politically surreptitious happened.

The transparency of the Democrat’s big picture targeting is brutally obvious. It has long been rumored that former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley might just be the greatest threat to a Hillary Clinton bid for the 2016 Democrat presidential nomination.

Why,… it was just yesterday the New York Times highlighted O’Malley’s progressive bona fides, and a veiled shot at Dame Hillary.

[NYT]  Martin O’Malley, the former Maryland governor who is likely to seek the Democratic nomination for president in 2016, took a veiled shot at a potential rival, Hillary Rodham Clinton, in a speech in South Carolina on Saturday, criticizing the politics of “triangulation” that have historically been associated with the Clintons.

“The most fundamental power of our party and our country is the power of our moral principles,” Mr. O’Malley said, according to a transcript of his remarks provided by an aide.

[…] “Triangulation is not a strategy that will move America forward. History celebrates profiles in courage, not profiles in convenience.”  (link)

Then today, something politically surreptitious happened which might just change the angle of O’Malley’s approach: (more…)

National Portraits and Artists….

clinton portrait[…] “Clinton was hard. I’ll tell you why. The reality is he’s probably the most famous liar of all time. He and his administration did some very good things, of course, but I could never get this Monica thing completely out of my mind and it is subtly incorporated in the painting.

If you look at the left-hand side of it there’s a mantle in the Oval Office and I put a shadow coming into the painting and it does two things. It actually literally represents a shadow from a blue dress that I had on a mannequin, that I had there while I was painting it, but not when he was there. It is also a bit of a metaphor in that it represents a shadow on the office he held, or on him.

And so the Clintons hate the portrait.”.. ~ Nelson Shanks (Commissioned Portrait Artist)
