Trying to keep up with this president is exhausting. Let's identify a few things:
1. He returned to the White House yesterday from his 5 day vacay to Latin America. He tried to get into the Oval Office but could not. (Watch the hilarity here: http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/national/president-barack-obama-locked-out-of-white-house ) He was LOCKED OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE. Divine intervention?
2. A weeklong vacay like that can be grueling, so the Bama has a limited schedule today: a briefing on Libya (it's still a hot mess), lunch with Biden (who just returned from his state visit to NY Yankees spring training), a briefing from Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner (the economy still sucks), then curling up with the fam for some dinner and "Nancy Grace."
3. Team Obama is now insisting that the war in Libya isn't a war. It's a "kinetic military action."
Questions: A) how does a "kinetic military action" differ from an "overseas contingency operation?"
B) According to this prez, does ANY combat involving the United States qualify as a "war?"
C) Oh yes, I remember past "kinetic military actions" well: there was World Kinetic Military Action I, there was World Kinetic Military Action II, don't forget the Korean and Vietnam Kinetic Military Actions, and of course, the two Iraq Kinetic Military Actions as well as the one in Afghanistan.
War is hell. So is this absurd political correctness. The Bama's use of euphemisms makes Bill Clinton's parsing of the word "is" look quaint.
If the Bama isn't napping on a futon, shooting hoops, smoking, or playing golf, he's making up ridiculous phrases to disguise what he's really doing (or not doing.) Trust me: al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood, various other Islamist/terror groups, Iran, and Qaddafi are all engaged in what they call "war."
A war by any other name...is still a war.
Ummah,
Millions of Americanos today don't have a clue to what Elizabeth Taylor was, let alone what a sexual goddess really is. (Paglia, as usual, lays it out well in that Salon piece.)
Today's untutored Americano who knows only the chubby fag hag, way past her prime, yet always good-natured and ministering to the talented freak Michael Jackson, can't possibly understand how she went lustily through eight husbands and is still venerated by the knowing around the world, even as far away as Japan.

Count me among the unknowing untutored Americanos, Gringoman. I don't care for Jackie Collins either.
In my view Liz Taylor is just the beginning of mass tabloid public attention diversion.
Paglia is a good irreverent writer, and she writes far better than any of us, including Monica, but that does not mean I always have to agree with what she writes.
Intelligent Conservatives can agree to disagree without resorting to name-calling.
That is left to the, well.. left.

I thought the fighting in Libya was a "Humanitarian Action." Isn't war always that, really? Seriously, Who are we helping there? Why do we care more about "Libyan freedom fighters" than we do about those in Iran? This stinks to high heaven.
Obama goes to Brazil and lets them drill where he won't let us, and then tells them we'll be his best customer. Have aliens (from another galaxy) taken over the US government? What is happening here?
No President can be this stupid; it Must be deliberate. Yet a PEW poll says he is a sure bet for re-election...

Under Comrade Obama, the Justice Department is too busy to prosecute baton-wielding thugs who attempt to scare Caucasians away from the polls. There are more pressing issues — like the case of the rookie Muslim teacher who discovered that even with the extensive time off that makes her profession such a magnet for the unindustrious, she would have to wait years for the Haj to fall during a school break before making a pilgrimage to the Magic Meteor.

El Condor Pasa
Just a word about the old style Union busting down South- Not much has been said about Operation Condor recently, although in Argentina General Luciano Menendez got another life sentence for "crimes against humanity". They always take one guy and make him into "el diablo", and then bury the whole affair with him. Some would love to get Kissinger and do the same with him, to clean America's image. Ridding South America of Soviet-related Commies, a worthwhile thing to do in 1980, occasionally got out of hand as dictators used this to destroy their opposition. Obama would like to clean America's image and assist Wisconsin's governmental unions. Will Scott Walker get the life sentence some day in the America's future, if a picketer gets a heartattack, or if a policeman accidentally knocks down a protester riding his green bicycle?

Obama OBVIOUSLY isn't going to run for another term. He'll claim health REASONS or some other such DRIVEL to avoid a CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS over his true birthplace Kenya, but not running leaves his "legacy" intact as the 44th President, which legally HE is not and never VILL be!!
The man CAN'T run; he can't get on the ballot in ten states! "CHOOSING" not to run solves all possible nasty problems for all concerned.
VE and our GOVERNORS ASSURED THIS.
After the election, his health problems vil miraculously "cure", and he vil serve in Hillary's cabinet in any capacity only out of the LINE of succession!! They might vell take a chance on him being Veep because they fully expect a return to Democratic control of the House because of my son Scotty Evil, the Evil governor of Visconsin and how he voke up the little people of this country as to HOW VE'RE DESTROYING THEM!!!
GOOD ONE, Scott! Oh, ve and our vhores vill yell and bitch and moan about how the Vice President needs to be able to ascend to the Presidency in an EMERGENCY, but that vill only convince our usual racist base and there will be 10-1 bastard LIEberals, hispanics, brats, union scum and blacks that vill come out like in 2008.

Ummah,
As I have long suggested, maybe it's not too late for Michael Savage to open his eyes and take a look at Sarah Palin. After all, "The Golfer," who DJ seems to think is a shill for the G.O.P. did that a long time ago, as did another Savage "nemesis," Mark Levin, and as does even the "Wall banger," Sean Hannity.
All three of these gents have left Savage in the dust re Palin. Who knows? Maybe he's beginning to figure that out.
ps Re Elizabeth Taylor. One can focus on the post-prime post-goddess-like overweight woman whose personal generosity was co-opted by the AIDS industry and who kindly mama-ed the tortured talented pedophile Michael Jackson.......or one can focus on the "last Hollywood star" who many can still testify mesmerized men and even women in a way that rivals the female icons of time immemmorial, whether as Astarte, Aphrodite, Cleopatra etc.
Camille Paglia understands very well both these "Elizabeth Taylors" and chooses to hail the incarnation of a goddess in modern times. I tend to Paglia in that.
Most American females today are either girls with dreams or embittered frustrated you-know-what, fodder for the progressive femizombies.
Elizabeth Taylor was a woman who lived out every womanly dream there is. Those who knew her know that.

What would the Demopublican Disaster, including MOnica Crowley's "classy" Rinosaurs most fear? I think it's obvious.
A Palin/Trump Alliance.
Yes, this would bring out in full force the corporate/socialist media's hacks from hell, including their Soros scumbots, as they slime furiously against Palin/Trump and in behalf of their chosen Community Organizer slick rabble rouser.
Some, like DJ, say this proves that the DemoPub Disaster is invincible. Americanos will simply be putty for their hacks from hell.
I'm not so sure. Against a McCain or most any Rinosaur, yes. Certainly. But against Palin and Trump who understand the jugular just as well as any elitenik and their union thugs?
Yes, I'm not so sure.
My one nagging question: Who can see either Palin or Trump agreeing to be Number #2 on such a 'Rolling Thunder' ticket? I can't, at this time.

Heard a good analysis of the Libya mess on Imus. Here are some of the points I remember. 1) Ghaddafi is the type of guy who gets even. He has to be "taken out" now or he could become another bin Laden (Remember Pan Am Flight 103). 2) Who benefits from this (France and Italy)? 3) Who will take over and what is there agenda? What if we don't like how they handle it? Will we be blamed?

Trump Demands Obama Release Birth Certificate
Donald Trump is calling on President Obama to release his full birth certificate. Trump said Obama’s continued refusal lends credence to claims that “there's something on that birth certificate that he doesn't like.” Newsmax details many documents Obama has yet to release.

This is what I like about Sarah Palin:
http://www.businessinsider.com/sarah-palin-greta-van-susteren-fox-news-video2011-3
I think NOW is missing the point. Mahar's remarks bother me less than the "elite journalist" who tried to portray Palin as a bad mother when she accepted the VP nomination. They portrayed Biden as "father of the year" for getting sworn in by his kids bedsides, but portrayed Palin in the opposite light for her political amibitions.
Out of all the things that N.O.W. gets upset about, this is it. Guys kid each other about their body parts all the time; in fact, a particularly funny scene from "Mad Men" just came to mind.
I think it is good that Sarah Palin is distancing herself from this. I think it shows that, unlike Greta who needs her Irish brothers to protect her, Palin is tough enough to play with the boys.
Am really digging Sarah Palin. She might not be ready to be President, but she is definitely VP material.

Trump’s danger to Obama
March 24, 2011 by Don Surber
Da Tech Guy, a good blogger of the Catholic persuasion, has a nice post: “Why Trump’s Birth Certificate statement will resonate.”
While Da Tech Guy says Obama was born in Hawaii (and he was) Da Tech Guy also believes that Donald Trump’s doubts give credence to doubting.
My take is different.
I do not think Donald Trump believes for a moment that The Won was born in Kenya.
Donald Trump is mocking the president.
That is worse.
Mockery of a president can be deadly. Ask Gerald Ford. (OK, you cannot because he is dead.) Chevy Chase’s caricature of Ford as a fumbling, stumbling idiot may have cost Ford enough votes in Ohio and Oregon to make Jimmy Carter president.
So far comics have been very mild on President Obama. The herd prefers dining on Sarah Palin.
But there is a dammed river of dissatisfaction with Obama whose health program and stimulus are failures.
Trump is not a politician. Trump is a celebrity. I doubt that he is taking his presidential run all that seriously, which makes his lampooning of the president even worse.
Like Trump, hate Trump, ignore Trump, he still has some clout. Trump has a reputation for being smart and for having common sense. That is a rare combination.
If he signals open season on Obama, the dam will burst.
Anyone seen Rosie O’Donnell lately?
Posted by: gringoman | March 24, 2011 at 11:23 PM
Trump is smart and has common sense, but is he qualified to lead the United States as President? Is he qualified to be the leader of the free world?
Posted by: mjfell | March 24, 2011 at 11:27 PM
Excerpt: "What Samantha Power and her supporters want is to solidify the principle of "responsibility to protect" in international law. That requires a "pure" case of intervention on humanitarian grounds. Power's agenda would explain why Obama acted when he acted, and why the public rationale for action has not included regime change."
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2011/03/the_power_of_samantha_power.html
Once the principle of "responsibility to protect" has been established, it will be used to justify the invasion of Israel in order to "prevent further violations" of Palesinian "human rights".
