    “Do you know if you do two things in your life — if you do two things in your life, you’re guaranteed never to be in poverty in this country? What two things, that if you do, will guarantee that you will not be in poverty in America?” he asked the crowd.
    Number one, graduate from high school. Number two, get married. Before you have children,” he said. “If you do those two things, you will be successful economically."

    Whenever I see him talk, he always looks like his teeth are clenched while talking... I always envision that he's enduring the unpleasantness of chewing on a wad of shit in self-sacrifice for Jesus' name.

    Hitler wanted Germany (and possibly the rest of Europe) to be Islamic. The Leftists in Europe are fulfilling his dream. With America continually becoming more and more and more Euro-peon-ized that may happen here.

    USA's liberals have flooded the nation with their insatiable need for quick, carnal gratification, chemical diversion, and excuses for lack of responsibility. Disguised as "anger with the wars" and "anger with greedy people", liberals have foisted their cynical depression onto all of us in hopes we'll all give up that last piece of kryptonite (to them)... religion. If we make that mistake, you can plan on 10 yr old kids knowing about (if not being experienced with) all kinds of s ex acts, plan on hearing rapper-type language during prime-time television, and forget all about wholesome family time.

    If the Supreme Court says that you have the right to consensual [gay] sex within your home, then you have the right to bigamy, you have the right to polygamy, you have the right to incest, you have the right to adultery. You have the right to anything. Does that undermine the fabric of our society? I would argue yes, it does. ... That's not to pick on homosexuality. It's not, you know, man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be. It is one thing.

    What a douche. Not only is he an idiot, but he's a faggoty douche... Look at how he's not even looking at the camera, like he's pretending to speak before an audience like he's actually important or something. There's actually nobody in the room besides him, aside from maybe another one of those "young republicans" to operate the video camera.

    Stunning tragedy for the framers....and for us. Obama aside. It leaves our country vulerable to the very kind of leadership our forefathers attempted to protect us from. Foreign interests.

    Obama was relatively young when he took office. His fathers (natural and step) from foreign countries could have attempted to take over our government through their son. Their son’s allegiance would have been to them, not to America. It has nothing to do with where a person is born.

    The man HATES America. He DESPISES everything America has stood for over the past 2 1/2 centuries--individual liberty, freedom, prosperity for those who work for it, self-sufficiency, the Christian work ethic, self-sacrifice, faith in God--EVERYTHING.

    I never thought I would say this about another human being and mean it absolutely--especially not an elected representative--but Obama is EVIL. He wants nothing more than to destroy America--to completely deconstruct our society and replace it with some sort of Lenninist/Stalinist dictatorship--or world government patterned along the same lines, probably with Muslim overtones.

    Where are the Republicans? Cowering in fear of losing their pensions and their cushy jobs living off the trough of the American tax-payers.

    Very clearly, if this is not just a trial balloon intended to evoke some unacceptable political response of violence from the people (thereby allowing him to declare martial law), then it is unilateralism at its most stark.

    If this doesn't set a fire under conservatives to pull together and win this election, then we are all doomed. We know we can't rely on the pitiful representatives we have in Congress--they care as little for this nation as Obama does, as exemplified by their collective cowardice.

    This effort must be stopped at all costs.

    I am very fearful that I will be living in just another sinking Euro-socialist nation in the next few years.

    I'm not sure the electorate even cares anymore.

    The Holy Grail, the absolute number one priority of the Communist Party USA has been unilateral nuclear disarmament of the USA.
    A sure sign you are dealing with a Communist(I do mean Communist not liberal or left wing)front organization is their support for unilateral disarmament.
    They made there big push during Reagen’s first term, it has since been shown that the nuclear freeze movement in Europe and the US along with the nuclear apocalyptic propaganda was financed and orchestrated by Moscow.

    There are many scenarios for America’s gradual decline but a depleted US strategic nuclear force with unverified unchecked,inadequately inspected reductions of Soviet weapons and a president with a documented history of Communist influence and sympathies is a formula for America’s instantaneous extermination.

    Even as we speak I wonder if the underwater location of our trident submarines is secure with Obama in the White House or if the Soviets have been assured that he would not retaliate but surrender if they attacked. If you are already a Red than there is not even a better dead than red choice to be made.

    No one with his background would ever be given a security clearance or allowed any where near any of our strategic weapons. Can you imagine any one with all his close Communist connections being allowed to fly a B-52 or even allowed on a trident submarine.

    You can think about the various ways a second Obama term could severely damage America; we are here not talking of damage or the metaphorical death of America, we are here talking about the actual death of virtually every man, woman and child in America.

    Let me state up front that I don’t think the filmmakers meant anything by the “Christo” character. I do think they stumbled haplessly on a hornet’s nest of anti-Semitic tropes – and thereby hangs a tale that matters.Act of Valor is a moving, gripping film, all the more so for being enacted by real Navy SEALs. (Full disclosure: this reviewer is a 20-year Navy veteran, and while definitely not a SEAL was privileged to work with some.) The one major flaw I found with the production, per se, was the rather annoying sound track, which could have dispensed with the hackneyed crescendos at suspenseful moments. What the SEALs do needs no audience-cues or embellishment.And they do incredible things. The movie conveys well the deceptive simplicity of their narrowly-scoped tactical operations. Naval Special Warfare is the unique funnel through which attack submarines, amphibious assault ships, and special-purpose aircraft are brought to bear on strange, one-off combat problems for which they weren’t necessarily designed. The whole Navy – indeed, all the special ops capabilities the United States has – makes up a big bag of tricks for the SEALs to reach into.Yet when the SEALs are on-scene conducting their operations, doing what no one else can, it all depends on them. Training and expertise are indispensable, naturally. But the on-scene surprises, the multi-vector firefights, the heart-rending collateral damage, the fallen comrades – that’s where the valor comes in.It doesn’t come in with a trumpet fanfare. The SEALs are effective in the movie because they evince valor so realistically. They are terse, focused, making every yell and profanity count – which is what highly-trained men sound like in combat. Valor isn’t something you emote your way through or sit around thinking about. It’s just what’s left when all the props have fallen away. And it requires a context if it is to matter and be detectable: a life saved, a mission accomplished, a job not given up on, a shipmate not left behind.That, it turns out, is the poignant weakness at the heart of Act of Valor’s premise. The ambiguous real-world context of the war on terror is the greatest narrative disability of all. The film’s story, with so much gripping tactical realism, seems to be built on a strategic hallucination: that it’s Chechen underworld gangsters who are likely to be masterminding a terrorist insertion into the United States.Hezbollah is all over Latin America; Hamas is showing up there; Iran’s paramilitary Qods force is reported to be operating out of Venezuela; Hezbollah and Somali Islamists have already sneaked illegally across our border from Mexico; the great majority of drug criminals in Latin America are Latin American – yet the production team for Act of Valor decided to make the villains in the movie Chechens, and make the Chechen drug smuggler a Jew. Why in the name of Jumping Jehoshaphat did they do that?The Jewish character’s name is Mikhail Troykavitch, but his nom de narcotics in Latin America is “Christo.” This seems a little studied, but perhaps is merely a coincidence. (If you’re not getting it, all Western names containing the syllable “Christ” in any form map back to the name of Jesus Christ. The “Christ” comes from the Greek christos, meaning “anointed.”) I say let’s assume nothing about a Jewish criminal naming himself “Christ” and move on.Other reviewers have pointed out Christo’s rather cartoonish hooked nose and eyeglasses, so we need not belabor that. I was struck forcibly, however, by a disclosure early on about Christo’s Chechen associate, Shabal – the terrorist who blows up children while assassinating the US ambassador in the Philippines, and then plots to put suicide bombers with high-tech explosive vests in cities in the United States. Shabal, we are told, was connected with the 2004 massacre of schoolchildren in Beslan, in southern Russia.The insertion of a Jewish character into this mix begins to rise to a remarkable level of haplessness with the Beslan tie-in. Perhaps the filmmakers were unaware that there is a well-worn theme among some factions in Russian politics of Jewish complicity in the Beslan massacre. (A relatively printable fulmination represented at a Pravda forum here; more colorful ones can be found in Russian.) The baseless allegation is periodically inflamed by reports that alternately suggest Israel is sympathetic to the plight of Chechnya, and in league with the hated, Russian-approved government there.The flames are fanned further, however, by 9/11 Truthers who believe a Russian Jew, Boris Berezovsky, was connected with the 9/11 attacks. The same Berezovsky, who had business interests in Chechnya in the 1990s, is also quoted all over the net by the conspiracy-minded as boasting that he “caused the war in Chechnya.” Those of fevered imagination can’t decide whether the Jews are abetting Chechen terrorism or allying themselves with Moscow, but in any case, you can’t make a criminal a Chechen Jew and give him an underworld buddy who blows up kids and had a hand in the Beslan massacre, and not open up a big, sweaty bottle of single-malt anti-Semitism.“But, good grief,” you might say. “Can’t anybody ever make a Jew a bad guy? What, screenwriters are supposed to look under every rock for exotic anti-Semitic tropes they might be inadvertently evoking? Seriously, we have to be that careful?”And the proper response, the pointed, relevant response is: Why shouldn’t we have to? Look at Act of Valor itself. About whom were the screenwriters at least that careful? Consider the interview on Christo’s yacht, in which the SEAL senior chief is interrogating the drug smuggler. Note what the senior chief says out loud, and what he doesn’t. He barks at Christo, “But you’re a Jew!” – by which he is suggesting that it’s odd for Christo to be in league with a terrorist like Shabal, whose goals are presumably hostile to Jews.Then the senior chief asks Christo, “You know what he is?” Well, we all assume we know what Shabal is, having seen him in a video near the beginning of the movie, calling on Allah while waving an automatic weapon. But the SEAL doesn’t say it. He doesn’t say “Muslim radical,” he doesn’t say “Islamic terrorist,” he doesn’t say “Islamist” – he doesn’t fill in the blank at all. The question hangs there, answered in every viewer’s mind but not on the screen.In the real world, meanwhile, the transnational terrorists who keep popping up far abroad, especially in the Western hemisphere, are Arabs, Pakistanis, and Somalis. But Act of Valor gives us Chechens and Filipinos. (There is a brief interlude at an airfield in Somalia, but no Somalis in the terror gang we follow in the story.)This political correctness wouldn’t be as noticeable if the filmmakers did not seem to have taken the long way around the barn to shoehorn a Jew into the story. The contrast can’t help standing out, and it is right to point it out. It would be wrong to accept it without cavil.It is almost as if the filmmakers were consciously determined not to appear to give a Jewish character kid-glove treatment – as if to say: “Fears about negative depictions of Jews are outdated and overblown. Jews are just like anyone else; we can make some of them villains. The evils of the past don’t mean we have to whitewash the present.”But, of course, the world hasn’t changed that much. If it had, we could make Lebanese-Arab Hezbollah Muslims or Yemeni-Arab Islamist jihadists into our main screen villains for a movie, without self-consciousness. The truth is that this world is pretty much as it has ever been, and a political recognition of that – an unspoken one would be fine – is what is missing from Act of Valor, because it is missing from America’s official, public dialogue on the war on terror. The breathtaking nature of the SEALs and what they do makes the movie a thrilling ride. But the story comes off as thin, not because the SEALs’ missions don’t matter, but because there is no strategic-level narrative, no “Why We Fight,” tying them together.Our enemies in World War II were basically living caricatures, armed with tanks and aircraft carriers. Writing a narrative in which they were the enemy wasn’t difficult. It was harder to write our narrative in the Cold War, but even then it was easier than it is today to define what the problem was, and how to bring the nation-state to bear in solving it.Today’s war is a war without a narrative: a war in which there is only an endless series of “battles,” which we cannot afford to lose but which don’t bring us any closer to winning. We don’t have an actionable concept of what winning would look like, and we certainly have no strategy to get there.In a sense, the SEALs are the perfect force to follow in a movie about a war like this one. A number of reviewers have complained about the shallowness of the plot; some even consider it to be laughable, no more than a cheap device to get a particular SEAL team from one operation to the next. But the joke is on them, because that is pretty much how a war looks from the perspective of a SEAL team. One of the most realistic aspects of the movie is precisely the narrow immediacy of the pretexts for moving the SEALs around.SEALs don’t run extended joint-force campaigns, they don’t take and hold territory, and they don’t hand the president enduring, decisive political victories. For those activities – the kind that form a coherent narrative – you must, to paraphrase T.R. Fehrenbach, put your young men in the mud and give them enduring, decisive political objectives. But that is not the war on terror as it has been waged for the last four years. Act of Valor has a plot like a police-procedural TV show because that’s what the war on terror has become.The war was losing strategic steam by the end of the Bush presidency, and has settled into a tactical police-action posture under Obama. The throw-away “Chechen-Jewish-drug-smuggler” character has about it the whiff of a Law & Order episode; it comes off as a quasi-random composite, of the kind writers can just make up when the narrative is as open-ended as the face of human crime.Wars against well-defined enemies preclude such literary license, which is quite clear if we imagine writing a story like this about World War II. The Nazis were Germans; there was no getting around it. Today, we have worked hard not to define an enemy; we have no enduring, decisive political objective; and we have no positive strategy. So we end up with as much literary license as we can handle, and no end in sight to the conflict.Seen in that light, it is perhaps even more remarkable that Act of Valor is so compelling. I admit to not even registering the thespian inadequacies of the SEALs, because – as many readers can probably also say – they looked real to my eyes. The actors in G.I. Jane looked like actors playing SEALs; the SEALs in Act of Valor are authentic.I saw one review in which the writer supposed that the SEALs “don’t really talk that way,” but I’m not sure what he meant: the SEALs talked as military men talk. SEALs tend to be very intelligent, well-read, and understated, with a somewhat mordant sense of humor and a natural, unforced patriotism and warrior’s honor. That came through in the movie. To ask for something else is to miss the point.When one of the SEALs is killed after throwing himself on a grenade, the scene is depicted accurately, without gratuitous gore, and the other SEALs react, but continue their mission. At his funeral, the team’s wounded SEALs make a powerful visual, gathered around the casket, but equally powerful is the quiet dignity and courage of the assembled family members. The SEALs would have it no other way.Critical reviewers have denigrated the voice-over by the SEAL chief (NCO, E-7) whose narration frames the movie. They suggest that the narration and its content – which is focused on the heritage passed between generations of fighting men – are simplistic or hackneyed. It didn’t strike me that way. The SEAL’s voice, with its Midwestern accent and unpracticed cadence, sounded familiar and authentic to me. It sounded like the voice of a sailor.Tethering the story to the SEALs’ family lives cements the film’s message. The silly, tortured ambiguities of politics and the war on terror are mostly offstage. The reality that grounds these men is captured in the face of the SEAL lieutenant’s baby boy in the final seconds of the movie. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard: in a war without a narrative, there is still valor.We sleep soundly in our beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on our behalf. (Attributed by George Orwell to Winston Churchill)

    The fish stinks from the head down, and this is Obama’s foreign policy. Is it any wonder that jihadist attempts in this country have skyrocketed under this president?

    And what is he on his belly for? Why would civilized men apologize for destroying materials that were being used to send jihadist messages to kill our soldiers and our citizens? This is madness. Where are Muslim apologies for 1,400 years of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural annihilations and enslavements? Where are their apologies for the relentless jihad warfare against the Jews, the Hindus, Christians and all non-Muslims? Where are the apologies for 9/11, 7/7, 3/11, the U.S.S. Cole, the Khobar Towers, Beslan and Bosnia?

    America does not apologize to savages and cannibals and ghouls.

    Stop apologizing and start carpet-bombing. Defeat jihad. What’s it going to take?

    Stop apologizing to these savages and start fighting. As an American, I do not apologize. I withdraw Obama’s apology. I withdraw Gen. Allen’s apology. I condemn their apology. I do not submit to a culture that suffocates ideas, critical thinking, women, non-Muslims. I do not apologize that the United States of America is “the greatest, the noblest and, in its original founding principles, the only moral country in the history of the world.”

    Tonight begins the Jewish holiday of Purim, the epicenter of silliness in the Jewish calendar. It’s hard not to think of the Obama administration.

    Back in the 1970s, Robin Williams used to bring down the house with a nightclub impression of Jimmy Carter addressing the nation on the eve of World War III: “That’s all, g’night, you’re on your own!” But President Carter is a giant next to the present occupant of the Oval Office. In Washington earlier this week, my PJ Media colleague Michael Ledeen reminisced with me about the good old days of the Carter administration, when grown-ups still were in charge: Harold Brown at Defense, James Schlesinger at Energy, Michael Blumenthal at Treasury, Ed Muskie at State, as well as Zbigniew Brzezinski at NSC. That did not obviate the Carter administration’s colossal blunders in foreign policy, which led to a burst of Soviet aggression and a near-fatal weakening of the Western alliance, not to mention a devastating stagflation at home.

    Compared to the Carter cabinet, though, the Obamoids are a kids’ Purimspiel, a put-on by the peanut gallery masquerading as adults — a clown show, in plain English. Macbeth was never so beguiled by his witches as is McBama by the witches who surround him: Iran-raised Valerie Jarrett, human-rights mavens Susan Rice and Samantha Power, the resentful Michelle, and the Pink Pantsuit at the State Department. What’s her name again? She used to be somebody important.

    I stand by my February 2008 profile of Obama as a sociopath dominated by strong women. Obama and his coven suffer from up-close-and-personal identification with the putatively oppressed peoples of the Third World. That goes far beyond the academic prejudices that liberal college students absorb from post-colonial theory. One has to live in the Third World, as Obama did during four of his formative years and Jarrett did in early childhood, to understand the rage and despair of the losers. Many times during visits to Third World countries, I sort of wished that I were a Communist. You see cruelty and indignity that shouldn’t be visited on a cockroach.

    To round out the list, we have Leon Panetta at the Department of Defense, a political operator and accountant whose job is to cut the budget. Timothy Geithner? The Stan Laurel half of a duo with the departed Larry Summers. Tom Donilon as national security advisor? His biggest job was six years as chief lobbyist for bankrupt Fannie Mae.

    There’s not a single member of the Obama cabinet with grown-up qualifications. In practical terms, this means that we have fools and incompetents in charge on the eve of a deadly crisis. As I wrote earlier this week, Obama’s claim is laughable (in his March 2 interview with Jeffrey Goldberg) that Iran “is not yet in a position to obtain a nuclear weapon without us having a pretty long lead time in which we will know that they are making that attempt.” That ranks among the most outrageous misstatements to emerge from the mouth of an American president. As every security professional knows, American intelligence almost never had advance warning of acquisition of nuclear capability by emerging powers. India, Pakistan, and North Korea all took us by surprise. Iran well may have tested an enriched-uranium device in North Korea in 2010. That story doesn’t have to be true, but only possible, to show Obama up for an incompetent. It is abysmally, obviously, embarrassingly stupid. Now, predictably, the administration is starting yet another round of time-buying talks with Tehran. We know what costume Obama will wear for Purim. He is dressed as Charlie Brown, trying yet again to kick Ayatollah Khamenei’s football.

    America has a Purimspiel in place of an administration. In the original Purim story, the best the Jews of Persia got from King Ahasuerus was a go-ahead to defend themselves against those who meant to annihilate them. Once again, the Jews are on their own.

    On the topic of World Bank nomination I read this comment in the WSJ:

    "
    You gotta be kidding me right. Appointing some guy whose probably related to the current and former leader of North Korea. Much worse, appointing a health policy expert to run a world bank. It can't get better than this. This president continues to believe that folks from the academic world are so much smarter than the rest of us. I'd say they are probably more of a laughing stock for most of us who are realist. He continues to double-down with failed appointments. Didn't he learn his lesson with Energy Secretary Chu who is responsible for the high gas prices in this country. He recently gave himself an A- on job performance. I hope he's kidding, much like the comic book put out by the Obama WHite House to champion its failed obamacare initiative."

    Think about this folks, his vote counts just as much as yours.

    That reminds me. What's the difference between Sarah Palin's mouth and her vagina?

    Only a couple retarded things have come out of her vagina.

    I thought he got it through affirmative action. Travis, how much of that comment from the WSJ do you agree with? I mean we already know you think Chu and Obama have absolute control over global oil markets, but do you also believe all Koreans with the name Kim are related to Kim Jong Il?

    Of course anyone with the name Kim is related to Kim Jong Ill.. that part was spot on : )

    I agree with about half of that comment posted fro the WSJ... Chu can not bring down the price of gas, but like I say he can certainly make sure it rises and cant come down without the economy tanking and this is all part of Obamas agenda of redistrubution of wealth and enslavemtn to entitlement programs and the best way to do that is to weaken people financially to become more dependent on the govement hand out and not break that glass ceiling .it even dove tails with Obamacare on some level as far as people becoming needy and unable to to function without the goverment and to not take too much risk, as there wont be much reward for that risk, it all is aprt of the overall liberal dem platform of enslavement...

    disagree if you want.. but I am damn sure its all the same agenda, just different vehehicles to break this country down.. even Obama the moron knows Alinksky's end game goal..and Obama is really just a piece of the agenda, he will destroy as mucha she can, while he can..
