White House knocks
McCain for Palin pick

Washington Times, by Dave Boyer

Original Article

Smarting over Senate Republicans’ criticism of envoy Susan E. Rice that ended her chances of becoming secretary of state, the White House took an apparent swipe Friday at Sen. John McCain’s pick of Sarah Palin as his vice-presidential running mate in 2008. “The leading critics of Ambassador Rice, with their wildly unfounded assertions, have a spotty record at best when it comes to making judgments about who is qualified for high office in this country,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. Asked to elaborate, Mr. Carney wouldn’t. “You’ll have to deduce,”

I´ve disliked the smug, stupid, opinions of this lightweight long before he became a mouthpiece for the most corrupt, inept, administration in living memory. He isn´t doing much to change my opinion.

Is anyone in this administration ever going to grow up?

FTA: "Mr. McCain has been one of the most outspoken critics of Mrs. Rice’s fitness to replace Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton."

I´ll be interested in seeing if McCain goes after Kerry, who is said to have served in Vietnam, in the same manner. Or, will it be a "lovefest" for his friend from across the aisle?

If John F´n Kerry is nominated, look for McCain to take Kerry´s side when the Swift Boat Vets for Truth start telling the truth about J F´n K.

Now where is that Form 180?

Palin was a thousand times more qualified and competent than Obama for the office of the Presidency. What a bunch of lunatics the Dems are. Palin was not what they painted her to be. Leftists are pathological liars.

McCain will endorse Kerry so what does that say? Carney? that´s McCains pick for SoS so I guess thats a stupid pick? since he picks losers (in your bosses opinion)!

Sorry, Washington Times. ´´... criticism of envoy Susan E. Rice´´ didn´t end her chances of becoming secretary of state. Her barrage of lies to the American people did that for her.

The left never attacked palin on her policies because they knew they were right and a winner with the public. So they attacked her on her personal peculiarities.

On the other hand,we attack Obama on his policies which are interpreted by the left as being racist.Nobody cares what race Obama is but the left.If somebody is taking you over a cliff,what difference does their race make.Jerry Brown is white and he´s every bit the liberal sycophant Obama is.

This is truly ironic, there is nothing wrong with McCain´s judgement on Rice who is incompetent. As far as Palin goes the Loonie Left hates her more than almost anything on the the right...that being said, she was the Vice Presidential candidate, not the Presidential candidate, but was more competent that the other parties leading candidate. But in 2008 as well as 2012, the American Sheeple were asleep at the wheel and now the whole country will continue it´s descent and all will suffer.

Country (formerly Community) Organizer Barack Hussein Obama has had four whole years in which to show us what he can do. Unfortunately, we now know. He shouts Emergency! Emergency! It’s Over the Cliff Panic Time! and he’s the one (The Won) who got us there. Ironic, isn’t it?

Gutless, snarky Jay Carney coyly tells us we will have to “deduce” for ourselves that he, on behalf of his documented to be unqualified and incompetent boss, is referring negatively to Sarah Palin.

The Democrats may think of their executive branch as an administration. In actuality, it’s an asylum.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Backed by throngs of chanting supporters, dozens of liberal demonstrators are subjecting themselves to arrest each Monday at the state legislature here to protest a flurry of bills that could transform North Carolina into a model of conservative governance. The state’s hard turn to the right comes less than five years after people took to the streets here to celebrate the 2008 victory of Barack Obama, the first Democratic presidential candidate to capture the state since Jimmy Carter in 1976. The win prompted Obama’s supporters to crow about the growing influence of progressive

BEIRUT — The leader of the Lebanese Shiite militant group Hezbollah on Saturday defiantly defended sending his fighters to support President Bashar al-Assad’s army in neighboring Syria and proclaimed that they would be victorious. Hasan Nasrallah’s televised address provided the clearest public acknowledgment to date that his men are fighting alongside Assad’s troops and will continue to do so. As he spoke, Hezbollah and government forces were escalating an assault on the strategically important Syrian town of Qusair. A staunch ally of Iran as well as Assad, Hezbollah has deepened its involvement in Syria’s two-year-old civil war in recent weeks

My fear is that SB 346 would have a chilling effect on both of those rights in our democratic political process.

The latest reporting in the matter of Fox News Channel’s James Rosen indicates the Obama administration fought to keep the search warrant for Rosen’s private email account secret, arguing that the government might need to monitor the account for a lengthy period of time. Thank you, Ryan Lizza. And one more thing. Despite Eric Holder’s his protestations of ignorance regarding the Rosen matter, NBC reports that Holder himself authorized the warrant application. Hmmm.

The judge ordered him held pending a bail hearing and his arraignment Tuesday. “He allegedly tried to cover up his affiliation with Hezbollah,” said special agent Erik Vasys, spokesman for the FBI in San Antonio. “It is believed

A FREE press in a democracy demands a delicate balance. The First Amendment means the media must have the right to inquire without hindrance. The government has a legitimate interest in keeping some national security information secret. When these come into conflict, the balance often has been struck this way: The media are free to pursue secrets, but it is up to those in government to keep them. When the media come into possession of information that, if disclosed, could be damaging, the government can plead the case for secrecy — and the media generally are open to persuasion.

Washington rumor has it that Obama wants to be U.N. Secretary General. There are several reasons that make that likely, and if it´s true, it throws new light on a lot of Obama´s oddities -- including his Royalty Bows, his Apology Tours, his Muslim Sellout, and the Benghazi Cover-Up. But first -- why would Obama be planning to become the chief of the U.N. before he has even finished his second term?

Minutes later, he was hacked to death in broad daylight and in full view of onlookers by two men with machetes who crowed "Allahu Akbar!" as they dumped his carcass in the middle of the street like so much roadkill.

A Washington state Democrat is accusing Republicans of “throwing American infrastructure … under the bus” after a bridge collapse there this week. The portion of Interstate 5 in Washington that runs over the Skagit River collapsed on Thursday after a truck hit an overhead support structure, but Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) cited the incident in an interview as proof Republicans were blocking infrastructure investment to hurt President Obama politically. “Well, they have clearly spent the whole last five years trying to tear the president down, but they have done it by throwing the American infrastructure and

Abuse Of Power: Any scandal investigation that expects a "Eureka!" moment, a White House e-mail, or Oval Office smoking gun will be misguided. In fact, the dots are already connected directly to the president. Barack Obama is not foolish enough to have a tape recording system hidden in his desk. And his administration staff are not careless enough to send one another incriminating e-mails. If the president was behind the IRS unlawfully harassing conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status, we can be sure the communications were all sotto voce and in persona, like any good Chicago political operator.
