| President Barack Obama, who plummeted in the polls after his disastrous first debate performance and saw no 'bounce' after the second debate has a final chance in Florida tonight night to halt Mitt Romney’s late surge and stave off a re-election defeat. Obama leads by a tiny 0.2 per cent nationally in the RealClearPolitics poll of averages. But he is down seven in the Gallup tracking poll, down two in the Rasmussen poll and has seen his leads in Florida and Virginia disappear and his Ohio advantage whittled down to almost nothing.

I'd love to see the Vegas odds on the following:
1) How long before Obama brings up Bin Laden.
2) How long before Schieffer brings up Bin Laden.
3) How many times Obama brings up Bin Laden.
4) How many times Schieffer brings up Bin Laden.
5) How many times Schieffer protects Obama in some way.
6) How long before the debate starts that the MSM declares Obama the winner.
Actually, #6 already occurred weeks ago. I guess. The others will still be interesting to watch though. I may start an office pool.

I don't even credit obama with the execution of bin Laden (if he wasn't already dead years ago). The plan to get bin Laden was designed and approved all the way up the chain nearly 10 years ago, Bush 43. obama probably couldn't even stop it if he tried (and he probably did try to stop it, but the negative publicity would have been a nightmare.)

There are two deadly responses for Romney on the OBL issue.
1) Thank God GWB put in motion all of the intel, manpower and stagetery to make this possible over your objections as a senator. or
2)Where did you hang your "Mission Accomplished" banner?

Maybe Barkey can bring along his 'habeus corpus' photo album. We might inflame the neanderthals and assure OBL's martyrdom if we overpublicize his assassination. But this dweeb and his minions can run around shouting it to anyone who will listen at every campaign stop and/or TV appearance.

Bam's bin-laden boast, which may be his only credit, conjures a picture in my mind: I see a dread-locked bamster, wreathed in ganja smoke, strumming a Chinese Les Paul knockoff and singing:
Ah shot Bin-laden.
But I did not shoot Za-Wha-Here-e-e-e-e

Ah shot Bin-laden,

The problem for Obama is that the voters are starting to see through his lies.
Benghazi in particular has been weeks of Obama lies as he demands we believe his own political fantasy.
Ambassador Stevens' diary and emails are like a voice from the grave calling Obama a liar.

So if BO's whole presidency comes down to his "success" in killing OBL, what's he going to do for his second term? Fish OBL out of the ocean and kill him again?
BO's role in killing OBL was in being "present". He's good at that. Heck, it's so simple even grinnin' Joe Biden could have done it.

I am always amazed — amazed — when anyone has the gall to dismiss, even laugh off, the suggestion that the right to keep and bear arms is a smart and necessary provision for a free society. Human history (not to mention current events!) is too chock-full of examples of nefarious regimes violently abusing and controlling their people, and the freedoms enjoyed by American citizens are the exception, not the rule. During a committee hearing of the Oregon state senate in considering their own state package of gun-control legislation last week, one testifier reminded the assembled lawmakers of one

A few years ago I interviewed a handyman to do some work on my house. I noticed a teardrop tattoo at the top of his left cheek. Prior to hiring him, I searched online for what this design signified. My mouth dropped when I found out. A teardrop tattoo can mean he murdered someone. So I hired someone else. Plastic surgeons and dermatologists are seeing more and more people who want their tattoos removed, often because they worry that the tattoos could cause problems with employment.

Andrew Breitbart has become an iconic and beloved figure on the right, so it’s hard to imagine his eponymous empire could be in danger of losing conservative support just one year after his passing. But if recent events are a harbinger of things to come, that’s at least a possibility. It all started last October, when BuzzFeed’s McKay Coppins penned a controversial piece, arguing the outlet was “plagued by an unusual degree of disorganization and rampant infighting…” The report might have been easily dismissed, had it not been soon revealed that Breitbart.com’s Dana Loesch was suing Breitbart.com

And now the last of them is gone. Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, and Pope John Paul II—three who won the Cold War and, it isn´t too much to say, saved the West (at least for a while!)—are no longer with us. Their examples remain. They knew what they believed but also knew they had to justify their beliefs, and that one could adjust prudently to circumstances without yielding on principle. They stood firm when in power, and they took risks to get there, challenging the conventional wisdom and the respective establishments of their nations or institutions.

He created intricate classroom plans and a hit-list of fellow students and where they sat, and said he would carry on shooting until the police arrived, at which point he would take his own life. But after warning users on a forum that he would be armed and ready "20 minutes from now", one user called the FBI, who alerted police in England.

Frustration is taking its toll in the liberals’ war against guns. President Obama, pushing his broad gun control agenda, said we should be ashamed if we’ve forgotten the Newtown shooting so soon. The New York Times opined that Obama is being shouted down by the “gun lobby,” even though he and Biden had been crisscrossing the country “…making a forceful case for a package of laws that would reduce gun violence.” That, of course, is the media narrative on gun control. For every issue there is a narrative: a set of assumptions and boundaries of thought

GOLFE-JUAN, France—Frank Samson has prepared for a long time to meet his Waterloo. The French lawyer impersonates Napoleon Bonaparte at re-enactment battles, but it is no idle hobby. Mr. Samson has found what he says are perfect replicas of the French general´s gray overcoat, he has studied Napoleon´s native Corsican tongue and he has had himself crowned emperor of France, in a cathedral yet. In 2015, he wants to lead thousands of military enthusiasts into the ultimate re-enactment: the 200th anniversary of the battle of Waterloo in Belgium. But an American rival stands in his way.

Is it time to give up the fight against Obamacare? That’s a question some conservative health-care experts, pundits, and — more quietly — politicians are asking. In the first years after its passage, opponents had hoped that the Supreme Court would strike down the law or that a new president would sign its repeal before most of it took effect. But the Supreme Court decided to modify a few of its provisions instead of striking it down, and President Obama was reelected. Repeal is almost certainly off the table for four years. Obamacare will continue to be implemented.

As the bipartisan Gang of Eight works to complete a comprehensive immigration reform bill, there has been a growing consensus among Senate Republicans that the bill — so far seen by no one outside the Gang — should be the subject of multiple hearings and extended consideration inside the Senate Judiciary Committee. But on Sunday there were signs that consensus does not extend to the Republicans inside the Gang. Appearing on CBS, longtime immigration reform advocate and Gang member Sen. John McCain suggested the immigration issue is so familiar to lawmakers that multiple hearings will not be necessary.

Illegal apprehensions are at 40-year lows,” Napolitano told reporters this week in Houston. But figures released Thursday by Customs and Border Protection to Fox News tell a different story.

(Snip)Administration officials would never admit it, but the main reason for their being tougher on Iran than North Korea seems tied to American domestic politics as much or more than anything else, specifically the standing of Israel and oil versus Korea and Japan.

AS a Texas-raised journalist, I can tell you two things with confidence about my native state. One, its economy has been humming nicely for years. Two, this appears to greatly offend a certain breed of Northern writer, several of whom have descended on the state in an attempt to rebut stories of a “Texas miracle.” (Snip) “Texas has a long tradition of looking outside the government for support — and often finding it. That predates the Texas revolution and was reinforced by the rise of the cattle kingdom and the oil booms.”

Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.
