O Still Pulling Punches on Armenian Genocide

(Image by Steve Breen)

 

Last week marked the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.  But you'd hardly know this if you go by what Our Dear Leader says.  For the seventh year in a row, Obama broke his promise to actually use the word "genocide."

 

Even though a century has passed, Turkey still refuses to come to terms with it.

 

But not only is the word "genocide" never used by those sitting in the Oval Office, "Muslim" and "Christian" aren't used either.  Raymond Ibrahim makes the connection of The Islamic genocide of Christians, past and present.

Clinton Foundation: An "Atypical Business Model"

Describing the Clinton Foundation as an "atypical business model" is an Orwellian euphemism for corruption.

Mark Steyn is "keeping score" in the Clinton Scandal Tournament.  So far, the game (which is already being rigged by the media), is:  Uranium--One, America--Zip.

Obama: "President Wile E. Coyote"

While Baltimore burns, Richard Fernandez illustrates how Obama's foreign policy foul-ups have earned him the title of President Wile E. Coyote.

 

 

Breaking News: Baltimore Burning

While I was off-shift and sleeping, riots erupted in Baltimore, MD.

As of now, the governor of Maryland called-out the national guard after roving gangs attacked police, torched a police car and a store .

Our nation is facing turmoil from within as well as from outside the Ramparts of Civilization.

I fear more cities will burn in the months and years ahead.

Hill's Baggage Just Got Heavier

If Hillary's baggage wasn't heavy enough; uranium, one of the heavies elements, was added a few days ago in the form of a deal between the Clinton Foundation and Russian investors to acquire uranium mines in Canada. 

 

Of course, the Clinton Foundation mouthpiece is trying to brush this aside:  Yes, we made some mistakes.

 

Simple accounting errors.  Could happen to anyone, right?

 

Right.  It's just that such errors always seem to occur when the Clintons are involved.

 Mark Steyn isn't buying it and rolls-in with his fighting for everyday Americans and everyday uranium-dealing Kazakhs.

Earthquake in Nepal

 

 

Over the weekend, a massive earthquake struck Nepal.  As of now, the death toll has climbed above 3,000 victims.  Sadly, the number of casualties are expected to climb.

Relief efforts are underway.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families. 

In my job at Washington State Emergency Management, we monitor around the world, especially within our own state, and the Pacific Rim due to the danger of tsunamis. 

So disasters like this are very relatable to me on both a personal and professional level.

ISIS's Structure Revealed

We often like to think of terrorists as certifiably insane, and hell-bent on causing death and destruction for the sake of causing death and destruction.

Nothing could be further from the truth, especially where the Islamic State is involved.

Apparently, ISIS's chief strategist got himself killed last year in the embattled town of Tal Rifaat. 

Taking-out a terror chieftain was certainly good news.  But what's even better is the treasure trove of documents he left behind revealing the structure of the Islamic State.

Let's hope we can put this intelligence coup to good use.

Captain Kirk's Water Pipeline Proposal

Earlier this week, "Captain Quirk" concocted a Kickstarter scheme to alleviate California's four-year drought:  By running a water pipeline from Seattle to Lake Meade.

Apparently, Shatner didn't hear back from the Away Team that reported WA State is currently facing a drought this year.

Obama: Desperate for a Deal

Negotiations with Iran over its Nuke Program should have resumed yesterday. 

As I'm writing this, there's been little or no news regarding the progress of the negotiations.

However, we're already five steps behind Iran, the latest being the mullahs are not going to allow their military sites to be inspected.

Our Dear Leader may very well get his deal done with Iran.

However, many of us like-minded folks feel this won't end well...

Hillary Clinton: Queen of the Corruptocrats

Well another "Right Wing Conspiracy" may be in the making for the Bill & Hill Clinton.  The Hillary Camp is in damage-control mode over a new book's revelations.

Basically, Clinton Cash is suppose to be about the ton-o-cash the "dead-broke" Clintons have raked-in.

It makes me wonder:  What will it take to folks like these away from the levers of power?

 

Mark Steyn has a simple 2016 Campaign wish:  "I would like a candidate who promises to hose out the sewer."

My feelings are similar. 

Big Government has led to Big Corruption.  Since 2008, the prime offenders have been Democrats.  However, last year's "Red Tsunami" was full of campaign promises made by Republicans, now seems to have petered-out after four months in office.

Will Clinton Cash derail Hillary's bid for the Oval Office Throne, or will it be another "phony scandal?"

I hope this supposed bomb-shell of a book turns out to be Clintonian Kryptonite.  But the non-FOX media is eager to see their queen coronated.

No Contenders Against Clinton

Last week, VDH wrote a damning piece, asking:  Why is Hillary Clinton even running?

Unfortunately, the short answer is:  Because there is no other contender the Democrats could put into the ring.

The way the leftist political landscape looks, all Team Hillary has to do is coast through the Democratic Primaries on name recognition--and recycled ideas...
