| If I´m following this correctly, according to one spokesperson for the Marine Corps Band, at Monday´s Inauguration Beyoncé lip-synced to the national anthem but the band accompanied her live. However, according to a second spokesperson, it was the band who were pretending to play to a tape while Beyoncé sang along live. So one or the other of them was faking it. Or maybe both were. Or neither. I´d ask Chuck Schumer, the master of ceremonies, who was standing right behind her, but he spent the entire performance staring at her butt. If it was her butt, that is.

A funny article. With Obama, you don´t know where reality begins or where it ends. It´s all part of the narrative - part fact, part fiction...a mass of confection.
The scary thing is when they combine a lot of fiction with a little bit of fact and then try to pass the whole thing off as fact. This is where the danger truly lies. It´s government by mass deception.

"Obama is peerless at making a song and dance about tunes nobody´s whistling..."
Obama is all about misdirection. He plays to the emotions of the lowest common denominator while illegally carrying out the wishes of his puppet master, ValJar. If we had a competent congress and an unbiased supreme court, this kenyan would have been sent packing in 2009.

"No clothes!" says Steyn in so many words. Why, no one in this administration even wears real underwear! Yet, so many Americans exalt their magnificent adornments.
Steyn has surpassed even vintage Coulter as the rhetorical avenger. His mockery is brilliant - just what we need to pull an Alinsky-style coup - ´Ridicule is man´s most potent weapon´. If only we could translate his multi-syllabic structure to something that could be understood by the Lofos.
Great writing Mark!

Two depressing quotes from the article:
"A couple of days later, it fell to the 45th president-in-waiting to encapsulate the ethos of the age in one deft sound bite: What difference does it make?"..."Four Americans are dead, but not a single person involved in the attack and the murders has been held to account. Hey, what difference does it make?"
Enough to make you "give up and die," right?
But then the good news starts to trickle in.
1) A sportsman show in PA had to be cancelled when gun-owners, the NRA and exhibitors boycotted it in protest against restrictions imposed on any mention of the AR-15. 2) A court ruling declared Obama´s ´recess´ appointments to the NLRB and elsewhere to be "unconstitutional." 3) Bill Maher, believe it or not, states that "there are a lot of dirtbags in this country." [H/T to RCP] http://tinyurl.com/a5ubk3s 4) The 40th annual March for Life is taking place. And the good Dr. Krauthammer predicts that it will still be taking place 40 years from now. [Please, dear God, make it so.] 5) There´s at least one muskrat in southern Maryland who is a little less grumpy.

Mockery, ridicule, brutal humorous sarcasm ! That´s the next step for all of us bright citizens, and Mark Steyn can lead the way! Mark proves in his writings that whenever it all becomes absurd, ridicule is the best medicine and with mockery and ridicule, the whole problem becomes bloodless. Obama and Feinstein want gun fighting in the streets. They are violent prone, violent instigating idiots. Steyn, Lucianne, PJ O´Rourke (where are you PJ come out of the closet ! please) can laugh them out of their fake seriousness and all their media tuned lies. Diane Sawyer is equally responsible, all of the Diane Sawyers, that is, for her acting skills in the news every night, her mock seriousness, her cowardice to never speak out, never say anyting that would offend the overlobbyed Beltway millionaires. Maybe Diane needs a new 24/7 director. This communist stuff is getting really boring. Mark Steyn is a refreshing model for obeserving the frightening stupidity of these so-called leaders, and for commenting on their ridiculous ways with ridicule, sarcasm, mockery, little jokes, big jokes> Anything to show them as comedy versions of Hitler and Stalin (who took away all the guns). Is that enough rant?

And so a congressional hearing – one of the famous "checks and balances" of the American system – is reduced to just another piece of Beltway theater. "The form was still the same, but the animating health and vigor were fled," as Gibbon wrote in "The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire."
It is too hard to be optimistic when the parallels are this clear.

´so Obama will always be cooler than a bunch of squaresville yawneroos boring on about jobs and debt and entitlement reform.´
The above quote comprises the best summary of the 2012 election by the best pundit in the business.
The question is: If we had a ´cool´ messenger delivering the exact same message that was delivered by the ´square´ with which we were stuck as our GOP candidate, might we have won? If no, then we have truly lost the country.

WASHINGTON—A high-ranking American diplomat delivered an emotional reconstruction Wednesday of the Sept. 11, 2012, attacks on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, providing new details about frantic efforts to get military assistance, locate the missing ambassador and evacuate the surviving Americans. In testimony before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, Gregory Hicks, the former deputy chief of mission in Libya, recounted what he saw as unanswered appeals for help, taunting calls from the missing ambassador´s phone, the saddest conversation of his life and the frantic efforts of an office manager to destroy sensitive information.

How safe is abortion?" asks the frequently-asked-questions page of the Potomac Family Planning Center, a regional chain of four abortion stores in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. The answer: "Very safe. Our doctors are gynecologists who have years of experience specializing in abortion care. It´s unusual to have even minor problems." Tell that to Desiree Hawkins. Kirsten Powers reported in USA Today recently on what happened when Hawkins, now 20, visited Potomac´s Hagerstown, Md., shop as a pregnant 16-year-old:

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration, resolving years of internal debate, is on the verge of backing a Federal Bureau of Investigation plan for a sweeping overhaul of surveillance laws that would make it easier to wiretap people who communicate using the Internet rather than by traditional phone services, according to officials familiar with the deliberations. The F.B.I. director, Robert S. Mueller III, has argued that the bureau’s ability to carry out court-approved eavesdropping on suspects is “going dark” as communications technology evolves, and since 2010 has pushed for a legal mandate requiring companies like

Like many senior citizens, I have been bewildered by the rapid degeneration of our American society. A half-century ago, we were a decent people and a benevolent force in global affairs. Even then, we had to contend with drugs, violence, pornography, and the materialism engendered by prosperity, but we somehow managed to keep these malignancies at sub-critical levels. But by 1990, even though the threat of Communism seemed to be fading away, we had become aware that something was seriously wrong. Consider Michelle´s famous "Pollyanna" monolog in TV´s "Knots Landing": People SHOULD be nice. Nice should be the norm.

Civic education in America took a hit on Sunday when President Obama, giving the commencement address at The Ohio State University, chose citizenship as his theme. The country´s Founders trusted citizens with "awesome authority," he told the assembled graduates. Really? Actually, the Founders distrusted us, at least in our collective capacity. That´s why they wrote a Constitution that set clear limits on what we, as citizens, could do through government. Mr. Obama seems never to appreciate that essential point about the American political order. As with his countless speeches that lead ultimately to an

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

Former Gov. Mark Sanford completed the trail to political redemption Tuesday with a win over Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch to reclaim his old seat in Congress. Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001. It’s a remarkable comeback for a man many pundits had written off after his highly publicized affair with an Argentine

From the start, the Obama administration’s account of what happened in Benghazi, Libya, on Sept. 11 last year didn’t quite square for Sharyl Attkisson. So the veteran CBS News reporter dug in, and kept digging. The result: Attkisson has been a persistent voice of news-media skepticism about the government’s story. On the air and online, Attkisson has questioned the administration’s timeline and its response. (Snip) While other media, particularly Fox News, have been similarly skeptical about the official narrative about Benghazi, Attkisson and CBS might put the story in a different light.
