Obama Is A Delusional Narcissist
Jun 2, 2015 Political
Obama is viewed as weak by a large portion of the world. He is routinely made a fool of by other nations and their people and he has made the US a laughing stock in some parts of the world.
But to listen to Bathhouse Barry tell it he made the US the most respected country on the planet:
“People don’t remember, but when I came into office, the United States in world opinion ranked below China and just barely above Russia, and today once again, the United States is the most respected country on earth. Part of that I think is because of the work we did to reengage the world and say we want to work with you as partners with mutual interests and mutual respect. It was on that basis we were able to end two wars while still focusing on the very real threat of terrorism and try to work with our partners in Iraq and Afghanistan. It’s the reason why we are moving in the direction to normalize relations with Cuba and the nuclear deal that we are trying to negotiate with Iran.” Breitbart [Spelling errors in original corrected in this copy]
We get so much respect that Russia and China are doing what they want and slapping us in the face while doing it, Iran is negotiating with us while openly telling us they won’t abide by the deal and ISIS is threatening to come to this nation and kill the president at the White House. Not to mention the wars he ended are still ongoing and we have lost billions of dollars in equipment to terrorists because those we are “working with in Iraq and Afghanistan” fled and left it for them to take.
This does not sound like respect to me.
Then again maybe it means something different to Obama.
Of course he does have a history of drug use…
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.
Cops Lives Matter Too
Mar 12, 2015 Commentary
I am skeptical of the police. I respect them as a group of people who, for the most part, do dangerous jobs to protect people. But we have continually militarized them and they have a culture that sees them remain silent when some among them do wrong. There are far too many cases of police officers beating people and violating their civil rights.
[note]When you give police agencies items that are meant for war they will act like they are going to war.[/note]
That small group causes the good among them to be viewed skeptically. I believe all agents of the government should be viewed with a bit of skepticism but the bad actions of a small minority of cops has tarnished the good work of honorable officers.
It is also true that far too often police officers are extensions of the taxing authority of a government. They write tickets for nuisance items just to generate revenue.
But no matter how one feels about what policing has become the reality is these folks are men and women who have families. Their lives matter just as much as anyone else’s. They should not be targeted. Don’t get me wrong. I believe people have the right to resist unlawful acts by any agent of the government but I do not think police officers should be targets just because some segment of society does not like them.
Last night two officers in Ferguson MO were shot. They are expected to survive but they should not have been shot in the first place. This is not an issue where police issued some no knock raid and got shot by a scared home owner. No, these police officers were monitoring yet another protest in ferguson when some jackass shot them.
We saw all the protests and riots when people believed that Michael Brown was shot with his hands up. That turned out to be a lie and he was the aggressor. Unarmed or not he ws dangerous and Officer Wilson was well within his right to shoot him.
Will there be protests in favor of these cops? The race baiting poverty pimps are already making excuses and rationalizing the shootings.
People get up in arms when they think a cop shot someone (or their dog) unnecessarily (and their anger is justified when that turns out to be the case especially when the cop is cleared of wrong doing) but they find no issue with police officers being shot while doing their jobs.
Imagine if you will a scenario where a group of people has been arrested after a long police investigation. Say they all had tons of drugs and illegal firearms when they were arrested. The cops all testify and they think this is a slam dunk. But for some reason the jury finds the defendants not guilty and they walk on all charges.
How would people respond if the police waited for them to gather someplace and then gunned them down?
The people of Ferguson were fed a false narrative and they were led to believe they would get the verdict they wanted from the Grand Jury. When they did not they burned the place to the ground. How many of them were arrested for that?
In any event, the false narrative and all the negative statements from Barack Obama, Eric Holder, Al Sharpton and plenty of other people has resulted in this violence against these police officers.
Their lives matter too and this should not be happening. They need to catch who did this and nail him to the wall.
Here is the key. Mutual respect. Police officers need to respect the people who pay their salaries and who they work for. They need to do their jobs with honor and dignity and without regard for ones color ar any other demographic.
The people need to obey the law and they need to respect the police.
If that happens people can work together to ensure their communities are safe.
Cave canem!
Never surrender, never submit.
On our knees, or on our feet- Choose one
May 11, 2009 Political
Well, it’s been over a hundred days since Barama was crowned, and in this time the administration has surely apologized a lot, and to virtually everybody in the world, as if we did something wrong.
Let me think- after we were attacked on 9/11, we went into Afghanistan to topple the Taliban and deny safe havens to Bin Laden. Any thing to apologize for here? No way.
Knowing that Saddam had ignored more than 17 resolutions from the gutless UN, and upon hearing from the French intelligence service, and the Israeli intelligence service (Mossad), and the British and Russian intelligence services, and from SADDAM HUSSEIN himself that he indeed had WMDs, President Bush decided that the risk was too great to allow WMDs in any terrorist groups hands. This was prudence on the President’s part, considering the information given. No apologies here.
When it comes to America’s security, a leader cannot take anything lightly. Not in this environment, considering the past actions, and future plots. There is still too much to be done, and it is looking like much of the work will be left unfinished due to a change in leadership, and a vast gulf in Global Understanding on the part of Barama, who thinks that just because some people cheer him, they wish him well. Caesar could say a few things about friendship and its transient quality.
But more important than being liked is being respected, and any hint of weakness is not a building block for respect, but a chink in our armor that someone will seek to exploit. Apologizing for something that has happened, before all the facts are known, as happened with Secretary Clinton, apologizing to Hamid Karsai, the head of Afghanistan, regarding an alleged American air strike that reportedly killed civilians, was premature.
Before any facts were known, Secretary Clinton had apologized for what was, in fact, a Taliban setup intended to embarrass the United States, something they have grown fairly adept at, with the complicit media, who take these killers at their word.
Wouldn’t you think that if it came to America, or the Taliban, that veracity might play into who to believe. Character counts, and America has always been in the forefront of aid to starving countries, and the first to aid devastated places. America gives more than anyone else to anyone else. We give more to Palestinian aid than many Arab countries. Ouch- that’s gotta hurt Muslim pride, huh? What has the Taliban ever done for its people? How has Al-Qaida made the world a better place for the people of this world? What fakers, what poseurs these apostate dogs are.
I understand jealousy, and that is what motivates most countries in their hate for the U.S.- they have most, if not all the same advantages that we have, but they cannot seem to make their government work right. In some cases, countries cannot seem to understand the concept of democracy, in others, they understand, but they hate the very idea, because empowering the people means no more power for the dictators.
I said all that to say this- there is a core of people in this country that will never feel the need to apologize, people that know deep in their DNA that there is no greater country, or form of government in the world today. We know that what we do for other countries, we do not out of any guilty conscience, but because it is the right thing to do, and doing the right thing comes natural to us. We know that there is an innate greatness and hope within all people, and we hope that our example does not create jealousy, but instead creates the environment where democracy and peace can sprout.
But mark my words well- we will be respected, and we will be sovereign in our undertakings. We will welcome partners in our endeavors, but understand one thing, and understand it clearly-
We will live on our feet, not on our knees, and nothing shall change that fact.

Obama; I Need To Earn Troops’ Trust
Mar 4, 2009 Military, Political
Back during the campaign Obama was interviewed and he said that he would have to earn the troops’ trust. I wrote at that time that this would be hard for him to do. He has never supported the war, he has never supported the troops surge and to this day he refuses to admit it was a failure. In fact, when one listens to him speak, as he did at Camp Lejuene, one can’t help thinking he is taking credit for all the good stuff.
Obama said he had to earn the troops’ trust but he first might want to work on gaining their respect. Obama received a lukewarm, if that, response when he visited Lejuene. There were golf claps but the speech, as one commenter at BlackFive noted, had pauses in it where it looked like Obama stopped for applause but the troops did not respond to, what appeared to be applause, lines. People on the stage clapped and then the light applause trickled back through the place. It was not sustained. George Bush never received that kind of welcome. Here is a short video that compares the kind of reception Bush received with that The Evil One got.
John Kerry might think the troops are stupid and uneducated and that is why they are in Iraq but they know a poser when they see one. They were respectful enough of the office to lightly clap but that is all they did. For Bush the reception was warm and loud. God Bless these Marines. They are tough, wise, ready to fight and they love America. They are all the things Obama is not.
There were all these stories about troops giving more money to Obama and they believed in him. No one can really know who gave what because Obama accepted money from all over the world and there was no real accountability. He cooked the books in the campaign like he is cooking them now.
I doubt the troops gave him more money but one thing is certain, they did not give him much of a reception. They obviously don’t care for him and they don’t respect him. They respect the office and they acted professionally but it was not what anyone would call a rousing endorsement.
I wonder if he will wait a while before he invades another military post. That rebuke had to sting.
The troops want a Commander in Chief and instead got a Community Organizer in Chief.
Big Dog Salute to BlackFive. There are a couple of other good videos there as well.

Troops not Impressed with Obama
Jul 26, 2008 Political
It would seem that the troops in Iraq were not impressed with Barack Obama. Many of them did not care for him before he ever got there and went out of their way to avoid being near him while he was in Iraq. The Gateway Pundit has a post up describing the situation in Iraq where very few soldiers support Obama and how he had little regard for them as well. We already know he blew the wounded soldiers off but he was just as dismissive of the troops in the field.
95% of base wanted nothing to do with him. I have met three troops who support him, and literally hundreds who regard him as a buffoon, a charlatan, a hindrance to their mission or a flat out enemy of progress. Even when the rumors were publicly admitted, almost no one left their duty sections to try to see him, unless they were officers whose presence was officially required.
Perhaps Obama had other things on his mind like having a press conference in front of the British Prime Minister’s place without the the Prime Minister present.
Whatever the reason, Obama is not winning the troops over and it is highly unlikely that he will get a large portion of that vote. Of course he probably does not have to worry about it since the Democrats disenfranchise soldiers in nearly election. They are working hard to keep them out this year as well.
Blackfive published an email from a soldier who was not impressed with Obama and the way he treated the troops and now we have another report from the front line. There in a consistent theme here and it is that the troops recognize a phony who does not support them when they see one.
