Left HS before report cards came out. Enlisted in the Marines for four years. By the time those years were over, I was hooked - they had me for life. Spent nearly ten years as enlisted. Received a Silver Star, Bronze Star w/V, Purple Heart as a Sgt during first RVN tour. Upon returning to the State's received a combat commission to 2Lt. Retired after 36 total years as a Colonel. Book follows my career, but is more about the heroes with whom I served, the great mentors I had, and the leadership principles they instilled in me.
Title paraphrased from William Shakespeare’s Henry VI, Part 2, Act IV, Scene 2. H.
This is a superb article written by nonetheless a fellow lawyer. It always bothered me that every politician seems to be a lawyer, but never looked at it quite the way this gent does. And by golly, I think he is correct. Read for yourself and you decide, but I personally believe he has nailed it. They are useless in cabinet positions, especially in one where they have no experience or training in the subject at hand.
It’s 1500 on the east coast. By this time tomorrow that scum-sucking, social deviate that’s been living in “our” house for the past eight years with his children and that likewise scum-sucking thing he calls his wife will be gone. I have been eagerly awaiting this time and day for a long, long time as I am sure some of you have been as well. At 1200 tomorrow a new vision for America will appear, and I feel confident it will be good for our once great nation.
The events tomorrow should go well since so many have said they aren’t coming. John Kerry for one. Will he be missed? I wonder if that POS was even invited, maybe The Don skipped him on the invites. I wonder of Barry and bride were even invited? LOL What about the fat pig, Rosie, will anyone miss her, and what about pretty Ms Meagan? See she is leaving FOX? Good, she was a liberal dressed in conservative garb all along, why else did she behave the way she did at the first debate. Now that she’s gone from FOX, listen to her new rant, it will be the “real” Meagan.
Geez, I am so looking fwd to tomorrow, aren’t you? I’m so excited I may not be able to sleep well tonight!
Remember when the Clintons were on their way out of the White House in 2001? They stole furniture. They vandalized computers. Overall, they behaved like vindictive, petty thieves.
In a way, I wish Obama had decided to just steal the furniture. Sure, it’s petty and childish, but it won’t leave a lasting legacy of destruction and damage in his wake. Instead, Obama decided to go out with a vindictive bang – the ripples of which are felt the world over.
He stabbed in the back America’s strongest ally in the Middle East. And why? Spite. That’s why.
For years now, Barry has held a grudge against Benjamin Netanyahu. And if it was the last thing he would do, he’d get back at him for having the nerve to put the interests of Israel above Obama’s selfish demands. Worse still, this action effectively booby-traps US Middle East policy for incoming President Donald Trump.
So much for “peaceful transfer of power.”
Then again, we all knew Barack Obama was full of shit when he lectured America on the “peaceful transfer of power.” Don’t doubt me. This man is stinging over the fact that he cannot remain President for life. Barack Obama is a spiteful, loathsome creature. That much is certain.
Even in something small, Barack let’s his bruised ego call the shots.
Remember the Government shutdown in 2013? So angry was he that Republicans would not bend to his will that he took it out on the American people. He shut down all Federal Parks and deployed Park Service employees to guard them in order to keep people out.
Remember the barricades that surrounded the National Mall? World War Two vets in Washington for the honor flights were unable to go to the WWII memorial. Until Senator Ted Cruz came in and helped them move the barricades and let the vets in.
This is how this petty, petulant, vindictive man responds to anyone who defies him.
Obama’s decision to abstain and not veto the Anti-Israel resolution at the UN is one more in a long line of spiteful, vengeful maneuvers. The problem is, Obama unleashes something far more insidious with this spiteful action.
Friday’s failure to veto an anti-Israel resolution at the United Nations sets a new low in the annals of American diplomacy. It was a shocking betrayal of a firm US ally, and of longstanding bipartisan US policy — a sneaky, dishonest move by a lame-duck president to express his pique at the president-elect and land a final vindictive blow on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Obama’s thin skin will get people killed.
His over-weaning ego is far more dangerous to US foreign policy than any tweet Donald Trump could send out.
In closing their editorial, the Post puts it best:
As for Barack Obama, it’s a sorry exit. But it’s par for the course for a president who has made everything all about him and his perceived slights. Which is why he’s bungled foreign policy in general — and the Middle East in particular — over the past eight years. What a profoundly sad — and dangerous — legacy. By every measure, he has taken a giant step away from any chances for peace and betrayed a key ally. Just for some petty personal revenge.
Obama has no intention of honoring his highfalutin words about “the peaceful transfer of power.” He has made it abundantly clear that he will do everything possible to obstruct and stymie President-Elect Trump before he even takes office.
If only he and Michelle had stuck with stealing furniture instead.
I know this video is a few weeks dated, but it is so powerful (watched it twice) I just has to post it. Bill Whittle is always so direct and to the point, but he nails them all here. Hillary’s Final Disgrace And to all the idiots in this country who donated to her cause, I hope you get your money back — NOT! This is a must see.
What will be in the Presidential Library? THE UNANSWERED MYSTERY OF THE CENTURY!!! Well, he’s ending eight years of living in our White House, so it will be interesting what he allows in “his library.” I do not know who wrote this but he/she sure raises some good questions.
It will be interesting to see what they put in his “Library” about his early years when he is out of office. In a country where we take notice of many, many facets of our public figures’ lives, doesn’t it seem odd that there’s so little we know about our current man in the WH, Barack Obama? For example, we know that Andrew Jackson’s wife smoked a corn cob pipe and was accused of adultery; Abe Lincoln never went to school; Jack Kennedy wore a back brace; Harry Truman played the piano. As Americans, we enjoy knowing details about every our newsmakers, but none of us know one single humanizing fact about the history of our own president. We are all aware of the lack of incontestable birth records for Obama; that document managing has been spectacularly successful. There are however, several additional oddities in Obama’s history that appear to be as well managed as the birthing issue. One other interesting thing… There are no birth certificates of his daughters that can be found?
It’s interesting that no one who ever dated him has shown up. The charisma that caused women to be drawn to him so strongly during his campaign, certainly would in the normal course of events, lead some lady to come forward, if only to garner some attention for herself. We all know about JFK’s magnetism, that McCain was no monk and quite a few details about Palin’s courtship and even her athletic prowess, Joe Biden’s aneurisms are no secret; look at Cheney and Clinton, we all know about their heart problems. Certainly Wild Bill Clinton’s exploits before and during his White House years were well known. That’s why it’s so odd that not one lady has stepped up and said, “He was soooo shy…” or “What a great dancer…”
It’s virtually impossible to know anything about this fellow. Who was the best man at his wedding? Start there. Then check groomsmen. Then get the footage of the graduation ceremony. Has anyone talked to the professors? It is odd that no one is bragging that they knew him or taught him or lived with him. When did he meet Michelle, and how? Are there photos there? Every president gives to the public all their photos, etc. for their library, etc.
What has he released? And who voted for him to be the most popular man in 2010? Doesn’t this make you wonder? Ever wonder why no one ever came forward from Obama’s past saying they knew him, attended school with him, was his friend, etc.?? Not one person has ever come forward from his past. It certainly is very, very strange.
This should be a cause for great concern. To those who voted for him, you may have elected an unqualified, inexperienced shadow man. Have you seen a movie named “The Manchurian Candidate”? As insignificant as each of us might be, someone with whom we went to school will remember our name or face; someone will remember we were the clown or the dork or the brain or the quiet one or the bully or something about us.
George Stephanopoulos of ABC News said the same thing during the 2008 campaign. He questions why no one has acknowledged the president was in their classroom or ate in the same cafeteria or made impromptu speeches on campus. Stephanopoulos also was a classmate of Obama at Columbia — the class of 1984. He says he never had a single class with him. He is such a great orator; why doesn’t anyone in Obama’s college class remember him? Why won’t he allow Columbia to release his records? Nobody remembers Obama at Columbia University… Looking for evidence of Obama’s past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there… but none remembered him.
Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who also graduated in 1983. In 2008, Root says of Obama, “I don’t know a single person at Columbia that knew him, and they all know me. I don’t have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia, ever.” Nobody recalls him. Root adds that he was also, like Obama, Class of ’83 Political Science, and says, “You don’t get more exact or closer than that. Never met him in my life, don’t know anyone who ever met him. At class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guy who writes the class notes, who’s kind of the, as we say in New York, ‘the macha’ who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him.” Obama’s photograph does not appear in the school’s yearbook and Obama consistently declines requests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia. Some other interesting questions:
Why was Obama’s law license inactivated in 2002? It is said there is no record of him ever taking the Bar exam. Why was Michelle’s law license inactivated by court order? We understand that was forced to avoid fraud charges. It is circulating that according to the U.S. Census, there is only one Barack Obama but 27 Social Security numbers and over 80 alias connected to him. The Social Security number he uses originated in Connecticut, where he is reported to have never lived. And was originally registered to another man (Thomas Louis Wood) from Connecticut, who died in Hawaii while on vacation there. As we all know Social Security Numbers are only issued once, they are not reused. No wonder all his records are sealed.
Please continue sending this out. Somewhere, someone has to know SOMETHING!?!… School? Before he reorganized Chicago? SOMETHING!!! He just seemed to burst upon the Scene at the 2004 Democratic Convention. ANYONE??? ANYWHERE??? ANYTHING??? I think much is going to come to light about this highly unqualified person who has been president of the United States for 8 years. Soon, we will know how badly we were all doped and duped by this imposter who has basically, with much help from his minions, brought the greatest nation in history to its knees in ruins. That will be his legacy. He totally destroyed the Integrity, Morals and Christian Heritage of our once great country.
