Europeans and Americans on the Rampage!!!

Europeans and Americans on the Rampage!!! :: SteynOnline:
"...Etc. So here we go again. A ninth attacker in the Paris bloodbath has been named:
A 23-year-old man from Strasbourg, eastern France, has been identified as the third attacker involved in the terrorist assault at the Bataclan music hall in Paris, police sources have said.
Foued Mohamed Aggad went to Syria with his brother and a group of friends at the end of 2013, according to a source close to the investigation. Most of the others were arrested in spring last year after returning to France but Aggad stayed on in Syria, the source said.
The news was further confirmation that the deadly Paris attacks were carried out largely, if not entirely, by Europeans trained by Isis in Syria.
Europeans, everywhere. I switched on Fox News in my hotel room this morning to catch Bill Hemmer saying that this means "Seven of the nine terrorists were European." As the Guardian report continues:
The latest information means that all of the assailants identified so far were French or Belgian, all native French speakers, and the attacks increasingly appear to have been part of a homegrown terror plot.
So "Europeans" are the principal security threat. 
Along with "Americans" like "28-year-old California man Syed Farook".
This is why the public is not joining the media, the Democrats and the GOP establishment in getting the vapors over Donald Trump's comments about Muslim immigration. 
The men pulling the triggers in Paris and San Bernardino are men with French, Belgian and US passports, but they are not "French", "Belgian" or "American" in any meaningful sense. They regard their primary identity as Muslim - and their citizenship as a mere travel document. 
So it doesn't require a large leap to wonder whether Islam is, in fact, an issue.
Instead, media commentators are arguing that the fact that all these "28-year-old California men" and "23-year-old Strasbourg men" are going bananas demonstrates that there's nothing to fear from all these zillions of "Syrian" "refugees". 
These "Syrians" are harmless. 
The real loonies are all these "homegrown" Americans and Europeans. 
Our cities would be a lot safer if we had more Syrians and fewer Americans and Europeans.
As I said to Sean Hannity on Monday night, one reason why Trump's "outrageous" remarks never dent his numbers a whit is because to significant numbers of people he sounds far less insane than the mainstream consensus - now insisting that all these psycho "American" and "European" terrorists demonstrate why we'd be much better off letting in millions of "refugees".
~The latest brain-dead euphemism is "radicalized". As in: Oh, did you hear about poor Mohammed? He became radicalized. Don't know how it happened. He went out for a stroll in the park, and somehow came back "radicalized"..." 

Dole says he ‘might oversleep’ on Election Day if Cruz is the GOP nominee

Dole says he ‘might oversleep’ on Election Day if Cruz is the GOP nominee | OnPolitics:
"Add 1996 GOP presidential nominee Bob Dole to the list of prominent Republicans who are not fans of Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.
In an interview with MSNBC, Dole said he doesn’t know how Trump has done so well:
“He says things over the top and people applaud.
And he’s insulted about everybody, every other candidate.”
And what about Cruz?
“Cruz is so extreme,” Dole said..
It should be noted that Dole has endorsed former Florida governor Jeb Bush.
Dole, a former Kansas senator, was particularly critical of Cruz.
The Texas senator has slammed losing Republican nominees — a group that includes Dole — for failing to sufficiently appeal to conservative voters
“He used to make these speeches, ‘Remember President Dole? Do you remember President (John) McCain?'” Dole said.
“The inference was that we were all a bunch of liberals, and only he is a true conservative.”
Dole said it might be difficult for him to vote for Cruz, should he become the Republican nominee.
“Well, I would … I might oversleep that day,” Dole said."

‘Hillary for prosecution, not president’

‘Hillary for prosecution, not president’:

“The project is an effort by WND and its dedicated investigative reporting team, private investigators, judicial watchdogs, state officials and attorneys who recognize it’s not enough just to document Clinton crimes, but to bring them to the attention of prosecutors who will bring them to justice before she can even accept the nomination of the Democratic Party for the presidency of the United States,” says Corsi. “We need help to hire the private investigators needed to prove that Bill and Hillary Clinton, along with a cadre of close associates, have used the Clinton Foundation to be a personal piggy bank, in complete disregard of state and federal laws that strictly prohibit what is known as ‘inurement,’ the crime of using a tax-exempt foundation to defraud charitable donors so their contributions can be diverted to personal use.”

Paul Albaugh: China Games the Climate Change Conference

Paul Albaugh: China Games the Climate Change Conference — The Patriot Post:
"After a week of climate change talks in Paris, there remains much uncertainty regarding the end result.
...Recall that the central focus on these talks is that both developed and developing nations must commit to reducing carbon emissions so that we can prevent the global temperature from increasing more than two degrees Celsius.
Without doing so, a parade of horribles awaits, they tell us. In the eyes of so many world “leaders,” this perceived threat remains more of a pressing concern than real threats.
...As Hot Air’s Bruce McQuain writes, “Lately the meme has been that ISIS is a result of climate change (even though, for the past 10 years, the climate hasn’t changed). 
We’ve been treated to all sorts of theories masquerading as ‘proof’ that climate change is real.
We’ve watched the alarmists ignore contrary data and continue to tell their big lie.”
...According to the Heritage Foundation’s Nicolas Loris, we should be wary of China’s commitment to reduce emissions.
China remains the world’s largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions, and that isn’t going to change any time soon.
China is constructing 350 coal-fired power plants and has plans to build another 800. 
As Loris notes, “This is the country that we’re going to trust to peak emissions 15 years from now?”
...The Wall Street Journal notes, “In 2013 China burned 3.9 billion tons of coal, almost as much as the rest of the world.”
Further, “Last week Beijing suffered several days of heavy pollution in which the most hazardous particulates in the air exceeded safe levels by 25 times.”
...As another Wall Street Journal Column observes, “Energy-intensive industries like manufacturing, chemicals, cement and pulp and paper will be particular victims and may decamp for overseas.
The President is trading away the competitive advantage of cheap U.S. natural gas for a bag of anticarbon promises.”
If the Paris talks accomplish anything, it won’t be reining in CO2 emissions.
But if the talks end up producing any results, it will be massive redistribution of wealth on a global scale.
Somebody will have to pay for these mandates and it won’t be China or India — or any other developing country for that matter.
The developed nations will be paying for it. Well played China, well played."

True Madness

By Tammy Derouin

The latest terrorist attack against Americans, on American soil, has stirred up many feelings.  Among them is a feeling of helplessness. I truly feel that good will conquer evil but I also feel it’s going to take some time.   We, as a nation, have chosen a dark and evil path to travel.  Any attempt to correct our mistakes will be met with much resistance.

A friend of mine sent me some wonderful clips of an amazing individual from a bygone era.  I would have never guessed that in less than 30 years, since the late, great, Ronald Reagan left the office of President of the United States, we would be on the verge of collapse.
Not only is our economy and security in crisis but so are our morals and values.  We have become a backwards thinking nation.  The government has turned on our true allies while insisting that we welcome our enemies into our homeland; true madness.

Do you remember when the United States was a great nation?  People wanted to come to America to become Americans. Today, people risk their lives to get to our shores for the opportunity to destroy our home, our freedoms and everything that once made us a great nation. They’ve been given a free pass by this administration to enter and destroy...

Judicial Watch Releases ‘Compelling Benghazi Email’ It Says ‘Worsens the Scandal of Benghazi’ | TheBlaze.com:

"Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton released a statement Tuesday after the publication of the email.

“The Obama administration and Clinton officials hid this compelling Benghazi email for years,” Fitton said. “The email makes readily apparent that the military was prepared to launch immediate assistance that could have made a difference, at least at the CIA Annex. The fact that the Obama Administration withheld this email for so long only worsens the scandal of Benghazi.”"

Students want building renamed because it honors a guy named ... 'Lynch'

Students want building renamed because it honors a guy named ... 'Lynch' - The College Fix
"Just when you really thought the myriad college protests across the country couldn’t get any more daft, something comes along to prove you wrong.
In this case, it’s students at Lebanon Valley College in Annville, Pennsylvania. 
stupid.Chisel_Wright.flickrDemonstrators there recently insisted that school officials “remove or modify” the last name of one of the college’s past presidents as it appears on a campus building – the man’s name is Clyde A. Lynch – “due to the associated racial connotations.”
This is not a joke.
PennLive reports:
The demand was made at a forum on campus equality issues held Friday, capping a week of demonstrations calling for changes at the predominantly white institution.
But while their remaining demands — those seeking everything from a more diverse curriculum to facilities recognizing varied gender identities and disabilities — appeared warmly received at Friday’s forum, which was attended by Pennlive and a standing-room-only crowd of students and staff, a call to change the name of Lynch Memorial Hall has been decidedly more controversial, both at the school and beyond.
In the days that followed, commenters on pennlive.com leapt to defend Lynch, who served as the college’s president from 1932 to 1950 when he died in office, saying he’s been unfairly dragged into the fray by this modern-day movement.
In response, student activists who made the demand said they’d be willing to settle for adding his first name and middle initial to the building instead of removing it altogether. At Friday’s forum they acknowledged no known links between Dr. Clyde A. Lynch and the practice of “Lynching” but said as is, the building and last name harken back to a period in American history when Blacks were widely and arbitrarily killed by public hangings and “Lynch Mobs.”

President Lynch “led the college through the Great Depression and World War II, helping to raise $550,000 for a new physical education building which was named for him following his death,” according to the college website.
Just a few hours after its first report, PennLive devoted a new article to the public backlash this idiocy has created..."

For at least the second time this week a local sheriff is taking to Facebook to call on citizens to arm themselves in preparation for terrorism or other violent attacks.
Clark County, Indiana Sheriff Jamey Noel posted to the social media site Tuesday night to voice his support for gun ownership and encourage residents to apply for a Concealed Carry Permit...
...“On any given day, we’re always understaffed and I think if you called the Jeffersonville Police Chief, Clarksville – they will all tell you that they are understaffed and don’t have as many people as they need,” Noel told the news site.
“I would much rather have someone in their house, if someone were to break in, in addition to calling 911 that they have a means to defend themselves before we get there,” he said..."

Remember our heroes-----Medal of Honor - John R. Fox sacrificed himself by deliberately calling an artillery strike on his own position

2Medal of Honor - John R. Fox sacrificed himself by deliberately calling an artillery strike on his own position:
John Robert Fox (May 18, 1915–December 26, 1944) was an American soldier who was killed in action when he deliberately called for artillery fire on his own position, after his position was overrun, in order to defeat a German attack in the vicinity of Sommocolonia, northern Italy during World War II.
He posthumously received the Medal of Honor in 1997, for willingly sacrificing his life.
Fox was born in Cincinnati, Ohio May 18, 1915, and attended Wilberforce University, participating in ROTC under Aaron R. Fisher and graduating with a commission of second lieutenant in 1940.
He was 29 years old when he called artillery fire on his own position the day after Christmas in 1944, for which he was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Service Cross in 1982.
More than fifty years after his death, Fox was awarded the Medal of Honor.
He is buried in Colebrook Cemetery in Whitman, Massachusetts.
In the early 1990s it was determined that African-American soldiers had been denied consideration for the Medal of Honor solely due to their race.
After a review, seven African-American soldiers had their Medals upgraded in January, 1997 to the Medal of Honor; First Lieutenant Fox was one of the seven.

This in addition to county, state and federal debt!!-----3 Texas cities have heaviest taxpayer burdens in US

3 Texas cities have heaviest taxpayer burdens in US - Watchdog.org:
With billions of dollars in “hidden debt,” three Texas cities have among the heaviest taxpayer burdens in the United States.
Dallas, Houston and San Antonio owe a combined $23 billion, according to Truth in Accounting, a think tank that rated government finances in the country’s biggest cities.
The debt far surpasses the cities’ official figures, which TIA called outdated and incomplete.
The Chicago-based group said municipalities move large chunks of debt off their books to meet balanced-budget requirements.
“This hidden debt is a result of outdated accounting methods used by city government officials, allowing a vast amount of pension and retirees’ health care benefits to be excluded from the cities’ financial reporting,” TIA found.
Dallas was the chief offender, shielding $6 billion of debt from its 2014 balance sheet.
That works out to a per-capita taxpayer burden $17,900.
“The taxpayer burden is a reminder that the city budget has not been balanced,” said Sheila Weinberg, TIA founder and CEO. “Future generations are at risk of acquiring more financial burdens.”
...Ross Kecseg, leader of the Dallas branch of Empower Texans, a conservative activist group, said the TIA report confirmed his research in the Metroplex.
“Local government financials are a complete and utter mess,” he told Watchdog.org. “Unfunded pensions are the largest hidden liability in government accounting.”
In a report last summer, Robert Lemer, a retired CPA and Houston activist, said his city is weighed down by “a bloated and overpaid municipal workforce.”
Only three other big cities had higher taxpayer burdens: New York, $59,000; Philadelphia, $28,800; and Chicago, $28,600..."

EU Leader Admits European Union in Danger of Disappearing

EU Leader Admits European Union in Danger of Disappearing | The Daily Sheeple:
"After decades of misguided economic policies, bureaucratic overreach, and unfettered immigration, the European Union is on the ropes.
While the leaders of the EU do their best to keep the union together, everything we’ve seen since the global financial crisis of 2008, suggests that doing so is a fool’s errand.
Now it seems these leaders are beginning to realize the truth, albeit for the wrong reasons.
Martin Schulz, the President of the European Union Parliament, told the Die Welt newspaper that “The European Union is in danger. 
No one can say whether the EU will still exist in this form in 10 years,” before adding that there were “forces at work to drive us apart.”
He believes there will be terrible consequences if this ever comes to pass, and said that the alternative to the European megastate would be a “Europe of nationalism, a Europe of borders and walls...”

"The chairman of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign attacked Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) for chairing a Senate inquiry into global warming Tuesday.

“The science on climate change is clear, 2015 is on track to be the hottest year on record, and the United States is already feeling the impacts of climate change — including in Ted Cruz’s home state of Texas, where severe downpours and flash floods killed dozens this year alone,” Hillary for America Chairman John Podesta said in a statement."



Bernie’s Climate Honesty

Bernie’s Climate Honesty - WSJ:
"Bernie Sanders has no chance to win the Democratic presidential nomination, but the breathtaking details of the climate-change plan he released this week are still worth noting. 
They show where the Democratic Party is headed.
The Vermont Senator calls climate change “the single greatest threat facing our planet,” and he seems to mean it.
He is proposing a 40% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030, and an 80% reduction by 2050, which is significantly more than the up-to 28% cut by 2025 that President Obama has pledged at the Paris climate confab.
To reach this developing world level of CO2 emissions, Mr. Sanders would:

  • impose an unspecified carbon tax; ban all offshore drilling and fossil-fuel leases on federal lands; 
  • stop “dirty pipeline” projects; ban natural gas and oil exports; 
  • force states to ban fracking; ban mountaintop coal mining; impose a new fuel-efficiency standard of 65 miles per gallon by 2025; 
  • spend “massive” federal dollars on subsidies for wind, solar, geothermal, biofuels, home-efficiency programs and energy storage; federally underwrite electric-car charging stations, high-speed passenger and cargo rail, a smart grid, and clean-energy job training; shut down the nuclear industry; and 
  • provide “clean energy funding” to the rest of the world.

Mr. Sanders doesn’t include the cost of all this, for obvious political reasons, yet give him points for honesty.
Hillary Clinton wants voters to believe that Planet Earth can be cooled with this rule change or that subsidy tweak.
The Sanders plan admits that decarbonization under current technology will require a government-mandated top-to-bottom remake of the U.S. economy, and maybe the American way of life. Welcome to the revolution."
