Golf Outing
The president’s golf outing with Tiger Woods in Florida was upsetting to journalists because he wouldn’t give them the time of day. Others were upset because they believe he wastes too many days playing golf.
Not me. I enjoyed a few peaceful days without President Angry Man in my face ranting about Republicans firing teachers, killing Head Start andpoisoning the environment.
Alas, not only is he back now, the Obama Moment has been made permanent and forever with the new 501(c)4, Organizing for Action.
Jewish Lobby Art
Defense Secretary nominee Chuck Hagel’s views dovetail nicely with our customer/allies in Egypt. Hagel is on record saying that the “Jewish lobby” “intimidates” people “to do dumb and stupid things”. When pressed he couldn’t name anyone else who was intimidated to do anything dumb or stupid.
For his part, Egypt’s President Morsi is on record (thanks to MEMRI – the Middle East Media Research Institute), calling Jews zionist pigs and apes.
The Egyptian government recently purchaced F-16 fighter planes.
Benghazi Fiddler
Andrew Wilson has a great piece in American Spectator (with a nice picture) asking, just what was the president doing while the Benghazi compound was burning?
State of the Union
“There is something entirely appropriate about holding the State of the Union address on the same day as Mardi Gras.
One is a display of wretched excess, when giddy and rowdy participants give in to reckless and irresponsible behavior.
The other is a street festival in New Orleans.”
Overruled
Senate testimony last week, from outgoing Defense Secretary Panetta and Joint Chiefs chairman General Dempsey, revealed that neither Obama or Hillary answered the 3 a.m. alarm on the night Ambassador Stevens was murdered in Benghazi. Panetta and Dempsey briefed the president on the situation that night at 5 p.m. Obama left the matter up to them and wasn’t heard from again until he flew to Vegas the next day and blamed the attack on a video maker.
Also it was learned that the president overruled advice from the Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, CIA Director, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to arm fighters in Syria.
