Party on Dude!



As the Obama Administration continues to come unraveled at the seams amid revelations of domestic spying, lies, corruption, incompetence, lavish spending on vacations, perverted policy failures and an economy dead in the water, seems nothing can put a damper on White House partying. Last Thursday night celebrities, liberal activists and assorted rich 1 percenters got together at the Obama Mansion to congratulate themselves for forcing Americans to do something against their will.  
"Celebrities, athletes, healthcare advocates and liberal activists gathered Thursday night at the White House to celebrate the release of final data from the first ObamaCare open enrollment period. The party, which according to Time magazine drew about 300 people, came ahead of the weekend festivities for the White House Correspondents' Association dinner."
Ah yes. And there is Saturday nights glitz and glam of the lapdog media and the adoring rich liberal 1% Hollywood pornographers (although fewer then years past) gathering at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner at the Washington Hilton.
"The ground floor of the Washington Hilton has become a scrum of hundreds of evening-attired guests chasing for the most surreal moments. The presence of stars among the guests of media organizations is also a long tradition, but it has escalated during Obama’s administration."
No word if there will be a Kardashian sighting this year but if there is, CNN Newsroom will even provide for your viewing pleasure live updates of the red carpet arrivals during the 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET hours. At 11 p.m. the network’s coverage of the dinner will have an encore presentation. Don Lemon, and the lovely national correspondent Suzanne Malveaux will give the play-by-play.

Party on Dude, while you still have the means. I feel your time is coming due. 


Did They Lie? They're Democrats Aren't They.

"The Ben Rhodes memo revealing the duplicity of this administration on the subject of Benghazi reminds us about the character of those involved. That President Barack Obama could lie so evenly and so passionately (remember the second presidential debate?) is not perhaps surprising at this stage. But let's not forget what it took for Hillary Clinton to lie to the grieving father of an American hero. ...
"As the Rhodes memo makes clear, the president sent his U.N. ambassador to the Sunday shows to lie. Susan Rice was 'to underscore that these protests are rooted in an Internet video, and not a broader failure of policy.' Rice did as she was told. The election was less than two months away. A foreign policy failure would not be politically convenient, so it would be made to go away. It's one of the minor injustices of this sorry story that Rice has received more condemnations than the president or secretary of state, who pulled the strings." Mona Charen

How Dare They Dispute the King

Truth Revolt
A 24-year-old White House official monitors and flags tweets from reporters that the White House may disagree with, according to an article by Yahoo published Thursday.
 Jessica Allen is tasked with monitoring the social media platform for tweets that push a narrative contrary to the White House's agenda. Allen then flags the conflicting tweets, and sends them up the Communications office food chain to all of President Obama's top aides, including chief of staff Denis McDonough, White House counsel Kathy Ruemmler, White House press secretary Jay Carney, and senior advisor and frequent media personality Dan Pfeiffer: 
“The result? Reporters who regularly cover Obama have become familiar with seemingly out-of-the-blue emails or telephone calls from officials taking issue with their tweets — often thoughtfully and constructively, sometimes with obscenity-laced yelps of outrage.
Yahoo reports that many reporters who cover the White House hear regularly from White House officials who push back against the narrative of their stories.
CBS correspondent Mark Knoller says he has received "a few rockets" from Carney over his social media offerings, which occasionally cause him to edit the tweet, or the story itself.

Homophobic Rants Aside, He's a Good Guy

Barney Frank Covers Alec Baldwin's Rear
News Busters
"Fresh from his short-lived engagement as an MSNBC pundit, dedicated paparazzi foe Alec Baldwin appears fully engaged in an effort to rehabilitate his public image after anti-gay rants and tweets got him banished from every respectable salon on the Upper West Side. As part of that effort, Baldwin is executive producer of a new documentary on -- wait for it -- Barney Frank, the openly gay former congressman from Massachusetts."
"When asked about that unpleasant episode by an audience member, Frank said in no uncertain terms that he had no problem with Baldwin -- a position he had emphasized on the red carpet before the screening, saying that, "his outbursts to the contrary notwithstanding," Baldwin "has been very supportive of gay rights."
Got that? Aside from his homophobia, some of Baldwin's best friends are gay.
Imagine the howling at the moon among liberals if a prominent conservative said much the same of LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling -- his antebellum-era scorn for blacks notwithstanding, he's very supportive of civil rights.
Unless and until a repentant Baldwin appears on "The Rachel Maddow Show" and begs forgiveness, his rehabilitation will remain incomplete."

Think About It.....


Do you have any opinions that you would be reluctant to express in front of a group of your peers? 
If the answer is no, you might want to stop and think about that. If everything you believe is something you’re supposed to believe, could that possibly be a coincidence? Odds are it isn’t. 
Odds are you just think whatever you’re told.
