| Only Democratic former presidents will be joining President Obama at his inauguration, after former President George W. Bush reportedly sent his regrets regarding the Jan. 21 ceremony. ABC News reports that officials say Bush will not be in attendance because of the recent health issues facing his father, former President George H.W. Bush. Bush, 88, has been in and out of the hospital in recent months fighting illness, and will also not attend the inauguration.Former Presidents Clinton and Carter, the only other living commanders in chief, will be present

Perhaps W is smart enough not to go because he might upstage the "WON" by being there.

Let´s see . . . Bammie has the Supreme Court justices at his state of the union address and disses them in front of God and everybody. Bammie disses Paul Ryan to his face in a speech . . . so why the heck would W go to the inauguration to be blamed for everything bad that has happened since 1066? Kiss off, BO.

Good. This will make is easier for FauxBama to blame everything bad on Bush, and everything good (there isn´t anything) on himself.

I have a feeling that old man Bush demanded to go home because he was sick and tried of the hospital.Which means he could still be very sick. I hope not but I believe W when he says he wants to stay close to home.

Finally, my Bushie gives Obama the tiniest of slaps...well-deserved, too.
I hope this second term is very difficult for Mr. Obama and his perpetually vacationing wife and daughters: Moochie, and the Grump Sisters. Please remember the ever-present mother in law.

This is great news. The symbolism of this may even be recognized by a large number of low information voters who no doubt will make up the overwhelming majority of viewers and attendees. The democrats OWN this mess.

Remember the last inauguration? Pelosi strategically sat a bunch of obnoxious people close to the stage to boo Pres. Bush?
It was a tawdry affair and far beneath what this country deserves. The degenerates of the nation will congregate to find out what goodies they have won in the re-election of obama. And our enemies will be salivating and gleeful to see their collaborator take the throne.

W remembers the despicable behavior of the LoFos at Obama´s 2009 inauguration. I wouldn´t submit myself to that mixture of ignorance, hate and stupid behavior again either. The foul-mouthed, trash-dropping, lawn-urinating inauguration-attending miscreants can vent their hate in some other way than booing our honorable 43rd president.

G.W. Bush has been the subject of cheap shots from Obama since Obama arrived on the national stage. There is no reason for Bush to attend Obama´s inauguration and chance being hit in person by a number of new Obama cheap shots.

We decided to shun the spectacle. It is suppost to be cold again then in the 0zarks so we´ll probably have a nice fire in the airtight, make s´mores and watch some John Ford - John Wayne classic Westerns.

Meet the Women for Weiner. The former congressman, who apologized for the lewd picture scandal that ended his House career before launching a bid last month for New York City mayor, is holding a fundraiser hosted by “Women for Anthony” next week at the Manhattan home of an education activist and philanthropist. The host committee is led by his wife, Huma Abedin, and includes her sister, Heba; Rory Tahari, wife of designer Elie Tahari; and Cheryl Saban, the wife of California-based mega-donor Haim Saban, who funded a short film lauding Hillary Clinton’s tenure at the State Department

Likening religious schools to segregation--a racist system that forced blacks to attend different schools and use different facilities than whites in the American South--President Barack Obama told a town hall meeting for youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland on Monday that there should not be Catholic and Protestant schools because such schools cause division. "Because issues like segregated schools and housing, lack of jobs and opportunity--symbols of history that are a source of pride for some and pain for others--these are not tangential to peace; they’re essential to it,"

News reports from the final debate between Democrat Ed Markey and Republican Gabriel Gomez conclude that Gomez, a first-time candidate and self-styled "new kind of Republican," delivered a strong performance. With just days left in the campaign before the June 25 special election for Senate, Gomez has trailed Markey, a 37-year veteran of the House, in every single poll. Markey currently leads by average of more than 9 points. But in the debate Tuesday night, Gomez hit Markey hard on the Democrat´s long Washington tenure, a running theme in the Republican´s campaign.

The Obama administration has reportedly tried to enlist the NBA in helping it sell Obamacare to the American people. It’s unclear whether a potential marketing partnership would put big-name players at the center of ad campaigns or if it would be as simple as putting the NBA trademark on marketing materials, Politico first reported today. People can begin signing up for Obamacare in October, with the new insurance coverage kicking in next year. Many have speculated that the enrollment campaigns would benefit from a celebrity endorsement or partnership with a major sports league.

Guides have dropped "God" from their Girl Guides´ Promise. In a multicultural and individualist age, the thinking goes, the movement should pledge "to be true to myself and develop my beliefs". None of that guff about God and country. It´s now all about "Me" and the anything goes spirituality. Hindu, Druid, New Ager, Muslim, Christian: everything´s the same these days. We´ve seen it elsewhere. Druids and Christians are accorded equal rights in the workplace: when a Druid employee, say, wants time off to go to Stonehenge for the Solstice, the boss must treat her the same

A group of whistleblowers, including a number of aviation experts, have come forward in a new documentary to claim that the official explanation for the crash of TWA Flight 800 was wrong and a gas tank explosion did not bring down the flight off the coast of Long Island 17 years ago. However, the six whistleblowers, all part of the original investigation team, stopped short of saying the plane was shot down. Flight 800, a Boeing 747, had just taken off from JFK airport with 230 people aboard on July 17, 1996 enroute to Paris when it exploded

An attorney whose firm represents two Benghazi whistleblowers said Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, lied to the Senate when he said there was never a “stand down” order during the Benghazi attack on Sept. 11, 2012. “What was fascinating is that he explained his lie to them,” Joe DiGenova, an attorney representing one of the whistleblowers, told CNSNews.com. “He actually said they were sent to Tripoli. They were needed in Benghazi,” said DiGenova, a former U.S. attorney, now with the Washington firm of DiGenova & Toensing.

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Charlie Rose last night asked President Obama his new Syria policy. The president first objected to it being called a new policy. "I´m not sure you can characterize this as a new policy. This is consistent with the policy that I´ve had throughout," he said. Obama then explained the goal is regional stability, and especially in Syria. "Really, what we´re trying to do is take sides against extremists of all sorts and in favor of people who are in favor of moderation, tolerance, representative government, and over the long-term, stability and prosperity for the people of Syria," said Obama.

Marco Rubio. Paul Ryan. The IRS. Illegal immigration. And fraud to the tune of billions.. Now there’s a combustible mix. Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan. For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics.

Listening to Barack Obama give his speech in Belfast on Monday, it was hard not to stifle a yawn. I kept waiting for the part when he would say something interesting, but, about three quarters of the way through, realised it wasn’t going to come. Judging from television pictures some of his young audience felt the same, after the initial rush of euphoria of receiving the rock star president in their midst had passed. This is not surprising, for we had already heard this number about the inspirational role of the Northern Ireland peace process and the Emerald Isle’s
