House Speaker John Boehner has been afforded no rest after the passage of the fiscal cliff bill. (Snip) President Barack Obama, meanwhile, has been vacationing on the sunny beaches of Hawaii - leaving Washington just hours after the deal made it through Congress on Tuesday night. The White House released a series of year-end photos of the President on Wednesday. The first picture in the series was of shot of a jubilant Obama frolicking in the warm Hawaiian waters.

I loathe Barak Obama, and I pray that God grants me a long enough life to see that "what goes around comes around." Of course, I have the same prayer for Bill Clinton...and Hillary...and Nancy Pelosi...and Harry Reid...and George Soros...

In case no one else noticed, the date under Zippy at the beach is January 1, 2012. Does he have water wings in his pockets ?

Shouldn´t somebody ask Christy why no one in his state was insured, including the towns ?

But I have come to despise Obama because I don´t think the other two purposefully set out to hurt America like he has.

Obama and his neophytes in the White House don´t even give a passing thought to the reality AND optics of their actions: 1) millions of Americans have had no vacation for years due to the Obama economy. 2)With the trillions in US debt, couldn´t the Obama family have spent their holidays at Camp David? 3)And returning to Hawaiii after interrupting his vacay to "save the country from the fiscal cliff" is just rubbing our noses in it. 4) The $7 million spent on the Obama family vacation could have gone a long way to help the victims of Hurricane Sandy.

Christie probably simmered down when he found out that Boehner did not bring this bill to a vote because of all the pork in it. Who is slipping this stuff in? They are at fault and it happens all the time. After a bill is passed we learn it authorized all kind of spending on ridiculous stuff. But we never find out who put the stuff in.

#35, Boehner tried to compromise, repeatedly, only to have Obama then raise his demands. Hence the 41:1 tax to spending ratio of the final bill.

Obama is not open to compromise, and if the Republicans idea of compromise of their principles is to just commit half a murder, they are done.

It´s easy to understand Hitler and his socialist/communist/islamic madness.

The photo of Obama in the surf looks odd , I can´t quite put my finger on it.
Of course, he´s posing for his adoring male media , the ones that gush over his " glistening pecs ".
Some of the photos of Michelle in her beach attire could also have the same description-seriously.
There were a couple of shots of Michelle on Martha´s Vineyard a few years back ,
in some very low cut thing and she had a manly, ripped chest.
If we had a non complicit media,
the 24/ 7 sybaritic and hedonistic lifestyle of the Obamas -paid for by the tax payers-would be exposed and properly criticized.
George W Bush and Mitt Romney , when they do take a rare vacation, always seem to find simple settings .
Like normal people.
And they don´t pose for the cameras.
Psst..don´t tell the Commander in Chief and ruin his daily vacation that 1544 US soldiers have died in Afghanistan and 264 have died in Iraq
since he was inaugurated in 2009.
I kid..he only worries about the NBA and Jay-Z , nothing could ruin his Five Star lifestyle.

Nothing will change until the Republicans get someone, anyone who will stand up and tell it like it is! They are always afraid of being "blamed" or "thought poorly of." Afraid of not being re-elected. Until we get some reps with cojones who don´t care if they get re-elected, Democrats will run right over us. They, you may have noticed, tell lies, bash opponents,refuse to compromise and care not about opinion!
Romney should have stood up and said "yes I am rich and I earned every penny." "I never made money rabble rousing." "It would be a pleasure to bring my money back "onshore" USA if the regulations were not so outrageous!" But no, he instead took the "moderate ground" which always costs us.

Look, Boehner didn´t get to where he is because he is a political wuss. He just cant talk out of both sides of his mouth like Obie can. You may recall he did manage to give Obie a fat lip a couple of times during the recent debt "negotiations". It is interesting since Obie dont know how to negotiate, he has to rely on the "my way or the highway" tactic.

When we experience the aftershock from the bursting of the dollar and debt bubbles, we will remember Obie as the great destroyer assuming he hasn´t been led out of the WH in 2016 or sooner enjoying a nice pair of handcuffs on his final trip to Hawaii.

Actually, she is backing off. Here’s the thing about her now-famous MSNBC promo: Either she’s saying something radical or she’s saying something so banal that it’s barely even worth saying. The radical interpretation is that she thinks parents should have less say over how their children are raised and that “communities” should have a larger role. The very, very banal interpretation is that she thinks communities should do more to improve children’s lives and that thinking of them as “our children” might help forge that mentality.

Earlier on Tuesday, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus suggested the second dinner not be at an expensive restaurant. “Instead of eating out as the president and senators did last month, I suggest they eat in,”

WASHINGTON- Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel says he wants U.S. military law changed so senior commanders can´t overturn courts-martial verdicts in major crimes such as rape. Hagel said the Pentagon´s top lawyers would prepare legislation for Congress that would strip commanders´ power to toss out convictions, "except for certain minor offenses that would not ordinarily warrant trial by court-martial." Convicted defendants still would be able to appeal their cases. But in a move berated by advocacy groups for military sexual-assault victims, Hagel also said he would recommend commanders retain the power to alter courts-martial sentences,

If presidential politics ever involved time travel, President Obama might be in a little trouble. If an election between Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama were held today, 58% would vote for Reagan over Obama, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans age 18 and older conducted by Kelton Research for the National Geographic Channel. Though when the field is narrowed to people ages 18-34 -- those either too young to have known Reagan as president or too young to remember much -- the gap shrinks to 51% in favor of Reagan.

With all due respect to Mother Jones´s conversation-leaker-in-chief David Corn, the recordings published today of a conversation between Sen.

We´ve got full background here, but the toplines are this: Corn got hold of a conversation apparently recorded during a presentation by consultants to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell´s reelection campaign. The consultants were opposition researchers, hired by the campaign to ferret out damaging information about actress Ashley Judd, who at one point considered running against McConnell.

The murder trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell largely is being ignored by the mainstream media, even in the face of grisly testimony, such as what we heard yesterday.

HARTFORD, Conn. -- With time running out on the chance to pass gun control legislation, President Barack Obama on Monday warned Congress not to use delaying tactics against tighter regulations and told families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims that he´s "determined as ever" to honor their children with tougher laws. Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt. Efforts by Senate Democrats to reach compromise with Republicans over expanding required federal background checks have yet to yield an agreement, and conservatives were promising to try

Itar-Tass also quoted the U.K.’s Sky News as saying North Korea currently has eight nuclear warheads.

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. 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.”

Chelsea Clinton has raised her profile in the last few days, which sparked the inevitable question about the former first daughter´s future: Will she ever be like Mom and Dad and run for office? Clinton, 33, essentially said "maybe" in an interview that aired Monday on NBC´s Today show. "Right now I´m grateful to live in a city, a state and a country where I strongly support my mayor, my governor, my president and my senators and my representative," said Clinton, whose father, Bill, was president from 1993-2001 and her mother, Hillary

More than 700 Special Operations veterans are urging members of Congress to back a select committee to investigate last year’s Benghazi terrorist attack, according to a letter first obtained by Fox News. The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. 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.

The case of a same-sex Connecticut couple accused of repeatedly raping and abusing two of their nine adopted boys is headed for trial. Married couple George Harasz and Douglas Wirth of Glastonbury were supposed to be sentenced Friday in Hartford Superior Court under a plea deal, but instead withdrew from their agreement with prosecutors. The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....

More than six months since Ambassador Christopher Stevens was assassinated by terrorists in Benghazi, the Obama administration is still trying to keep a lid on information about the attack. Congress and the American people need to know what happened the night of Sept. 11, 2012. Who did the killing and what was their motive? Why wasn´t help sent? And why did the administration lie about who was responsible? Members of Congress have asked hundreds of questions at hearings conducted by several investigative committees, but many of the most significant have been left unanswered. Information detailing what happened before, during and
