Asylum with The Most Interesting Man in the World
Ed Snowden spilled the beans on NSA spying on American citizens (a now politically incorrect term since 12 million of us are not legal citizens).
Snowden has been provided asylum by former KBG man, and entertainer to the world, Vladimir Putin. Here are some whacky Vlady highlights including his latest fishing expedition.
All fun and games until somebody gets poisoned by dioxin and reporters start getting killed.
It’s the Economy Stupid
Says Dr. Krauthammer:
I find it astonishing that he goes around making speeches in which he deplores the state of the economy, the growing income inequality, chronic unemployment, staggering middle class income, and it’s as if he has been a bystander, as if he’s been out of the country for the last five years. It’s his economy; he’s the president.
Endless Phony Scandal Parade
The president made another pivot back to the economy and away from phony scandals.
Al Sharpton
When I think of Al Sharpton I think of two words – Tawana Brawley. Now I think of two more – Personal Stylist.
Update:
Here’s Shelby Steele on what he calls “today’s civil rights establishment”. He says it’s leaders use poetic license to create “poetic truth” namely, that America is a racist nation.
“And here, precisely at the point of this verdict, is where all of America begins to see this hollowed-out civil-rights establishment slip into pathos. Almost everyone saw this verdict coming. It is impossible to see how this jury could have applied the actual law to this body of evidence and come up with a different conclusion. The civil-rights establishment’s mistake was to get ahead of itself, to be seduced by its own poetic truth even when there was no evidence to support it. And even now its leaders call for a Justice Department investigation, and they long for civil lawsuits to be filed—hoping against hope that some leaf of actual racial victimization will be turned over for all to see. This is how a once-great social movement looks when it becomes infested with obsolescence.”
Sock-It-To-Me
Former President Bush 41 visited the White House for the Points of Light award. He established the awards in 1989 to honor volunteerism and public service. President 44 was a gracious host and said nice things about 41.
President George Bush Sr. is confined to a wheel chair and outrageous socks.
