Good Riddance, John Boehner! Your Bankrupt America Will Never Forget You and Your Obama

GOP: SAY NO TO ANOTHER BAD SPENDING DEAL

by John Hinderaker at PowerLine:

There are so many things wrong with the spending deal that John Boehner announced last night. Let us itemize a few of them.

First, the Left is openly crowing about the fact that the deal is a huge victory for their side. TheNew York Times headlines: “Obama Wins on Budget Deal as John Boehner Cleans Out the Barn.” How much more do you need to know? The sequester was the only thing that had successfully reduced federal spending in my lifetime, and if Boehner’s deal is accepted, it will be gone:

[I]t achieves the main objective of [Obama’s] 2016 budget: to break free of the spending shackles he agreed to when he signed the Budget Control Act of 2011, an outcome, the president allowed Tuesday, that he could be “pretty happy” about.  (Please continue for more regarding this sordid destruction of our nation’s economy.)

Trump on the Stump Entertaining the Folks

Trump calls media ‘scum’

http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/258057-trump-the-media-is-scum

(I happen to believe Donald Trump is quite wrong regarding President Bush’s  decision to remove Saddam Hussein from Iraq.    Let us not forget the wonderful day when Baghdad fell into American hands and how the population sincerely exploded with joy and thanks.  Do you remember the day of balloting when Iraqis so proudly raised their inked thumbs to prove they had participated in a democratic event.

The bumbler in the Iraq theater was  devious Barack Hussein Obama who withdrew our troops despite the warnings of nearly everyone aware of the issue,  for a number of reasons, none of them honorable.

It was the Bush reliance upon the reorder of Iraq that should never have occurred which led to the year of chaos from which order in Iraq began to decay.

PRAGER UNIVERSITY: …..Who Killed the Liberal Arts?

Presented by

HEATHER MAC DONALD

“What in the world happened to the liberal arts? A degree in the humanities used to transmit the knowledge and wisdom imbued in the works of great Western artists, writers, musicians and thinkers like Shakespeare and Mozart. But today, that same degree stresses Western racism, sexism, imperialism, and other ills and sins that reinforce a sense of victimhood and narcissism. So, what happened? Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute explains.

Post script:   If you have a few minutes more, please read the following article I wrote at this site a few years ago in memory of my 9th grade English teacher, Mable Wicker, at the public school I attended in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1948.

I was an erratic student, then.   I was seriously dyslexic, not known then, a crippled reader but captivated with curiosity, but without discipline,  by nearly every subject beyond the world of mechanics.   I couldn’t read, but, wow, did I know English grammar!  Grammar put order to language.  It  was merely a maze, a puzzle to work through putting words in  order to make sense.

I believe I had and have had until old age, a photographic memory which helped me weaponize when interested my schooling and conversational successes with people who knew stuff…..nearly all of them boys, the recalcitrant ones.

I learned whatever I was told, if I respected the teacher, because learning  was fun…..so exciting putting the pieces of visual and thought together.      I had no idea about any  future.

My first class in this high school was English led by this Mabel Wicker, a shriveled up, red-wigged old-maid who 30 years before  had worked out the English curriculum for the city’s  “advanced” or “trial” students.

Unbeknown to me, I was “on trial” because of my erratic performances in school  from first grade on.

There were 36 students in this “on trial” class.  All but ten were boys.  All were better readers than I…..We began that early September by “reading”  Merchant of Venice.    Julius Caesar was the winter exercise requirement,  and conquering Macbeth occurred in Spring.    I even had to  buy the texts for each play out of my paperboy money.

I don’t know what ever  would have happened to me if that year’s experience would have passed me by.   Please read on:

THE EVIL OF THE TWO, OBAMA AND HILLARY, CANNOT BE EXAGGERATED FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN GOD, Freedom, AND HONESTY

Marxism is a religion.   Headhunting use to be a vital ritual in some religions.  Evil today is celebrated by people given space to celebrate evil.  And then there are the god and the goddess of today’s leftist America:   feminist Marxist Hillary, and Islamist-Marxist anti-American  Barack both well possessed with mouth.   Both are presently enjoying their contributions to the collapse of traditional American values and the freedoms it has produced.  Their iron rod is a constant preach hate to divide and conquer.

Marxism is a  religion of and  by  the State.  It’s tenet is based upon the dictatorship of the  equality  except themselves who execute  State activity.  Marxism is particularly popular among feminists of all sexes, shapes and sizes.

Black racists, feminists, illegal and other selected  immigrants, the gay and lesbian armies, traditional leftist Jewry,  Big Businesses married to government,  and professors and professoresses at college and university are today’s primary purveyors of Marxism here in  Obama and Hillary land.

A narcotically impaired, uneducated, unknowledged, unskilled, empty-souled, power greedy and proudly  godless public is being prepared for the final kill to democratic America,  November, 2016 with American monster of deceit,  Hillary, winning the White House by her  any an all means possible, foul or fair, by any means possible, including the counting of ballots of a million or more illegal immigrants.

Ben Stein is one of my favorite eastern parochials about life defending traditional America,  JudeoChristianity, reason, and righteousness.

He clearly recognizes rats in the basement when he sees or reads about them.

BEN STEIN’S DIARY

THERE’S NO DEFENSE FOR THESE TWO

It’s been a terrible week…..by Ben Stein at the American Spectator:

“Now, for a few notes about the world we live in. Ever since I learned about Barack Obama’s tormented childhood, I waited for the wackiness to come out. Abandoned by his black father and his white mother. Coddled and loved by his white grandparents. Trying to be white for years, then figuring out that the percentages were with playing the race card.

That man, with all of that turmoil inside him, was never going to be a healer. He was angry. You cannot be abandoned by your father and mother without being angry unless you have come to find some God in your life, which Mr. Obama clearly has not. Plus, if he were at peace, he would not have married a woman as furiously angry at her country as he did.

So, as my pal Phil said, all that counted was his unconscious agenda. We soon knew what that was: to loathe America. To apologize for America before the worst tyrants of the world, to refuse to adequately defend America.

Then, that was compounded by the sad truth that he was desperately inexperienced in foreign affairs and defense and economics.

So, if we got policy that mirrored his inner split between white and black, between some measure of gratitude and a huge dollop of anger, we would get what we have gotten:

Policy that infuriated his nation’s friends and coddled our enemies. Policy that allowed Barry, the outsider, to attack other outsiders, especially Jews. Policy that would not stand up for the country that he basically hated, but also loved to con, and whose adoration he loved. Who does not love to be adored?

The most pristine examples: the deal with Iran that will allow the world’s most militant and dangerous country, solemnly pledged to annihilate Israel, to have nuclear weapons, even though every responsible expert warned against it.”……..Please continue reading:
