They are so many years behind the entire country of Sweden and others.
Speaking of dysfunction. I see the Soros group think bots are still posting away, leftover from the Bush days no doubt! Really sad and pathetic. I wonder what they are gonna do if Trump is successful?
Thank God the social experiment is almost over! Obama, the worst President in history!

Government Sends Wrong Tax Form to Nearly One Million Obamacare Enrollees
Fresh off another victory lap last week, Obamacare supporters awoke last Friday to the news that the government had given nearly one million exchange enrollees incorrect tax forms that could significantly affect their tax returns. 800,000 enrollees in the federal exchange and roughly 100,000 in California were given the wrong forms, called 1095-As, which provide a monthly account of the premium subsidies exchange enrollees receive.

Amazing 0bama could tear himself away from the golf course.
Wow, how many are part time jobs, how many people have given up looking?
Makesxa good headline though
As soon as the word gets out there is free pizza the 0bama entitlement crowd will mob the place.
Conducting government business on a private email server is not common, of course Clinton lackeys miss this small point. This is just typical of the scummy Clinton shady, devious on the fringe of the law.
Funny, haven't seen asny links yet. Who is the fool?
Yes, most people have a personal/ private email account, shoulf be common sense not to condfuct official business with it. Hitlarry took the abuse a step further by conducting all her official business on a private email account on her own private email server.
It's Over, Hillary
site-iconamericanthinker.com/articles/2015/03/its_over_hillary.html
Hillary and Bill Clinton have always had what can be termed as an "Icarus" problem. Through their years in political office, the scandals swirled around them but seemingly failed to engulf them: Jennifer Flowers (and the other women); Whitewater; Travelgate; the cattle futures killing; Monica Lewinsky; Benghazi; Bill's "business" jaunts courtesy of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein; the Clinton Foundation's foreign donor problem; and now, Hillary Clinton's version of "Emailgate." Through it all the Clintons have soared to the heights of hubris with obfuscation and denial, challenging and daring the sun god of karma. Instead of crash and burn, they've instead repeatedly landed on their feet, quite comfortably.
Until now.
Separating out the Clintons, one finds that most people generally have a favorable impression of Bill. He's the incorrigible rogue, the brother forever getting into trouble, the "Bubba" you can have a beer with, and who as a teen shook hands with an American idol, and then later went on to live in that same White House.
Hillary, on the other hand, has a different persona. She entered the public conscience as the presidential candidate's wife who didn't want to stay home and bake cookies. Throughout her public life, she's been a polarizing figure, you either like her or you don't. There's no grey area with Hillary. Whichever side you come down on, however, very few will disagree that Madame Secretary is not afraid to wield power, keeps score and holds grudges, and at all costs protects the Clinton brand.
And now that Secretary Clinton is on the cusp of announcing her 2016 run for the presidency, it is very interesting that the New York Times decides to break the Hillary email story, and create this "scandale du jour." The silence, until just recently from Secretary Clinton, about her emails and her apparent defiance of the federal records laws shows either hubris or incompetence. Her tweet, "I want the public to see my email" rings hollow, with a slight hint of bubbling desperation.
But does Hillary really understand that this smoldering scandal is not like the others, that 2015 is not the heyday of the 1990s? Apparently not, and apparently Secretary Clinton is finding that her welcome mat is being rolled up. As our favorite former Obama pastor rousingly cried, "the chickens are coming home to roost."
Politics is like no other occupation. The stakes at the presidential level can make the toughest Vegas poker player wince. This is the world that Hillary Clinton has played in for the last two decades, and she has proven herself to be a comparable female version of "House of Cards’" Francis Urquhart, and so far has beaten the political Darwinian odds. While she has enjoyed the limelight for the past few decades, it hasn't come without a price. For every "friend", there is an "enemy."
With the 2014 electoral shellacking the Democrats received at federal, state, and local levels, retaining the White House is foremost in the minds of the Democratic Party power brokers, donors, and grassroots diehards. Hillary's disastrous book tour last year, her silence over major foreign policy events, and now the brewing disaster of "Emailgate" is proving that the Clinton brand and more importantly, Hillary herself, are not as stellar and untouchable as they once were. Hillary is now a blast from the past, and her latest run-in with infamy is showing incompetence at the highest levels to a new voting demographic.
Long a cheerleader, and co-partner in Clinton, Inc., the liberal media smells blood. The swan song of Hillary Clinton can actually be visualized. Many pundits and long-time Hillary watchers may say don't count her out yet, she's a survivor, others have had private email accounts, etc., etc. Not this time. Hillary is now becoming more of a detriment than a crowd-pleaser. She no longer can be counted on to bring home the White House in 2016 for the Democrats.
Right now, there can be little doubt that the lights are burning late into the night in Chappaqua, and the phone lines are burning up as Bill is calling every "FOB," to get needed intel, as he and his coterie decide whether “Emailgate” has rendered Hillary as irrevocable damaged goods. Hillary will not run if there's the remotest chance of another embarrassment on the national stage, as in losing the nomination, let alone the presidency.
Hillary, you've met your Waterloo. It's over.

Hillary sent cable barring State Dept. officials from using personal email for business
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/03/hillary_sent_cable_barring_state_dept_officials_from_using_personal_email_for_business.html
“Rules are for thee, not for me” could be Hillary Clinton’s motto, and we have proof. Fox News obtained a copy of a cable sent to State Department employees admonishing them to not use private emails for official business.
Sent to diplomatic and consular staff in June 2011, the unclassified cable, bearing Clinton's electronic signature, made clear to employees they were expected to "avoid conducting official Department business from your personal e-mail accounts." The message also said employees should not "auto-forward Department email to personal email accounts which is prohibited by Department policy.”
Since Mrs. Clinton did not even have an official email account, obviously she was using personal email in violation of the policy. Her cable cited specifics:
The cited section from the Foreign Affairs Manual states: “It is the Department’s general policy that normal day-to-day operations be conducted on an authorized AIS [the authorized department information system] which has the proper level of security control to provide nonrepudiation, authentication and encryption, to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the resident information. … Employees should be aware that transmissions from the Department’s OpenNet to and from non-U.S. Government Internet addresses, and other .gov or .mil addresses, unless specifically directed through an approved secure means, traverse the Internet unencrypted.”
Hillary’s policy seems to have had teeth – at least when others are concerned:
In addition to the 2011 cable, a 2012 inspector general report chastised a former ambassador to Kenya for – among other issues – using commercial email to do official business. That ambassador, Scott Gration, resigned shortly before the scathing IG report was released.
Explaining this away is going to a huge task for Hillary. And fun for me to watch.

Funny, you must be the only person that thinks others used personal email to conduct govt business. Very telling how you defend the scumbag clintons.
Please provide some links to support your fantasies.
"Jason R. Baron, a lawyer at Drinker Biddle & Reath and the former director of litigation at the National Archives and Records Administration, said in an interview on Tuesday that is doesn’t appear Clinton “violated” the law because “the Federal Records Act is amorphous enough.”
Baron did say, however, that the exclusive use of a person email system is out of the ordinary.
“I was in the government for 34 years and in my experience, as director of litigation, I cannot recall an instance where a high level official — or anyone — solely used a private email account for the transaction of government business,” he said."

Amazing anyone defends hillary for doing this.
No, she s an empty sdhell surrounded
By consultants.
Lol, Hillary wants everyone to see her emails.
That is why she hid them on a personal prvate server.
She and her scumbag husband belong in prison.
Obama the Impotent, the Infant, the Fool
site-iconamericanthinker.com/articles/2015/02/obama_the_impotent_the_infant_the_fool.html
We look at the Middle East, and we can see that the mass failures in Obama’s engagement in the region are caused by the three characteristics that most precisely describe the president. Invariably, Barack Obama plays one of three roles when formulating policy or engaging in diplomacy throughout the Middle East. He is either: Obama the Impotent, Obama the Infant, or Obama the Fool.
In Saudi Arabia, the new monarch King Salman contemplates the future of a kingdom tied together through the intricacies of baksheesh bribery and oil-funded entitlements. The irony of funding terrorists abroad while combating them in one’s own backyard has perhaps dawned on Salman, as he consults with Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Supreme Commander of the United Arab Emirates. Now, for the first time, the King and his consults, the Crown Prince and myriad other Sunni royalty must not discount the option of tacit cooperation with Israel. Sure, it’s fun to rail against Zionists and their lapdogs in world finance and Hollywood, but the Saudis know as well as anyone that a Shia minority with the power of a nuclear bomb is a thousand times the threat Israel would ever be.
In Libya, Coptic Christians in orange jumpsuits, not proper prisoners despite the garb, go on a beachside stroll. Behind them are stateless soldiers, men who kill not in the name of a state but in the name of a religion, a religion whose name may not pass over the lips of Western leaders, leaders whose constraints are those manufactured by a frenzy of political correctness that mounts in growing tidal waves, daily, monthly, yearly. The last words that these Christian men utter are “Ya Rabbi Yesou”, or “My Lord Jesus” in English. Then, the barbarians of ISIS decapitate them in front of their in-house film crew.
As Pope Tawadros, leader of the Coptic church, and Pope Francis, the Catholic pontiff of one billion souls, both pray for the slain, the ISIS butchering is digitally immortalized. The title of ISIS’s short film is “A Message Signed With Blood to the Nation of the Cross”, and according to ISIS its location is “The Coast of Wilayat Tarabulus by the Mediterranean Sea.” Its message to Christians worldwide isn’t ambiguous. It is intended for mature audiences.
No, no, this isn’t Islam, “and we are not at war with Islam” the Infant harps. Obama plugs his ears and pronounces with a tone of authority that doesn’t quite square with his ignorance in stating that “we are at war with people who have perverted Islam.” Very bold words for someone who is not an Islamic scholar. Very bold words in the face of the millions who openly advocate the more radical interpretations of Wahhabist and Salafist clerics, and the imams of their communities who crowd out moderates with implicit and explicit threats of violence. More than a billion and a half Muslims, a significant percentage of which willingly support the blood cult of ISIS, feverish proponents of sharia and the reconquering of the lost lands of the caliphate, and none of them are Muslims? Very bold words indeed.
Iran’s Foreign Minister Javad Zarif sits in a room lined with bookshelves of Islamic texts along with his boss Ayatollah Ali Khameini. They laugh as Zarif recalls his latest humiliation of John Kerry, of his manhandling of the Secretary of State from the world’s single Great Power, of his expert use of taqiyya -- the Shia precept of justifiable deceit in the face of peril -- in keeping the Americans at the negotiating table. Zarif and Khameini double over in laughter after watching our State of the Union Address, because they could see Obama the Fool at his very best. The Ayatollah may well have busted his guts guffawing when he heard President Obama insist that his “…diplomacy is at work with respect to Iran, where, for the first time in a decade, we’ve halted the progress of its nuclear program and reduced its stockpile of nuclear material.”
The reality is that Ayatollah Khamenei, Zarif, even Kerry and Obama know the truth about how inconsequential this “reduction” really is. They know that even though the interim agreement brokered in Vienna shuts down centrifuges at Natanz, Iranian scientists are developing the IR-8 centrifuge, which will be even faster and more efficient in forwarding progress towards a nuclear bomb. In Arak, the Iranians continue to buy materials for their nuclear reactors, all while refusing the release of photographic and video documentation of their nuclear facilities. Wow, what a deal.
Obama the Impotent says to the American public that he is an alchemist, taking an impossible scenario and manipulating it to conform to his desires, changing iron ore into sparkling, shimmering gold. Really, any impartial observer can see that he’s instead cultivating a nice, fat field of horse manure. The core problem that the President has is that foreign policy isn’t a high gloss campaign commercial, or a speech given in front of a teleprompter, and Middle Eastern despots aren’t his media cheerleaders, or vapid college kids that can be persuaded with a bumper sticker and a monosyllabic slogan like “hope” or “change” that means absolutely nothing.
At home, in the Oval Office, a seat is occupied not by a leader, but by a man who should have never ascended beyond the harmless provincial position of the Illinois State Senate. President Obama is certainly giving thought to his next book deal, or speaking to a Hollywood producer about a movie option, or possibly with Lorne Michaels about appearing in a sketch on Saturday Night Live, or whatever the latest debasement of the formerly honored office of the Presidency is this week.
What will the world think of Obama when he leaves office? What will they think after eight years of leading from behind? If I had to venture a guess, they’ll think the same of him on January 17th 2017 as they do right now: not very much. Across the globe, prime ministers and potentates rightfully doubt the seriousness of a leader who hits 18 rounds at the greens after James Foley, an American, was decapitated by a legion of benighted butchers who believe that they are doing the work of Allah. Obama’s final term has been unique in its unwitting combination of incompetence and idiocy.
What does the President imagine his personal legend will be? Or perhaps it doesn’t much matter anymore. He has always been concerned primarily with his legacy as he himself envisions it -- a fanciful endeavor into self-indulgent denial. Corpses pile on and the contours of history, frayed nerves that they are, exposed and vulnerable, are quite sensitive to the damage Obama has done. Even after the adoring chorus of press adulation dies down to a whisper, as the present becomes the past, proper historians will always remember the current president as Obama the Impotent, the Infant, the Fool.

The Left's War on White America
site-iconamericanthinker.com/articles/2015/02/the_lefts_war_on_white_america.html
Folks, I pray that what I am about to say will help open your eyes to the evil coming from the Left in our country (the Democratic Party, Hollywood, and the mainstream media). When you start teaching innocent little children to feel guilty for being born white, it can only be described as a war on white America.
I am black and very pleased with who God made me to be. Imagine the Left's reaction to a white person saying they are grateful for God's choice for their life. According to the Left, everyone (gays and minorities) are encouraged to be proud of who they are except white people.
I brought this up at dinner with white friends. I wonder how white America is dealing with the Left relentlessly trashing all things white? When will it reach a tipping point? My friends laughed, “Oh my gosh, Lloyd is becoming David Duke (white nationalist, former Grand Wizard of the KKK).” My friends were having a little fun with me. But one does have to wonder when whites begin saying, “Enough!”
Before I continue, I am not advocating nor predicting a race war or any such nonsense. I am simply saying how long can you beat up on people without some kind of backlash; whites turning a deaf ear to the Left's rhetoric?
Excerpt from a white female vet's email with 27 years of service:
“I find myself resentful and angry at the way White America is being abandoned and persecuted. Being a Government employee and a military reservist, I've been subjected to many of the government "diversity" classes and the "Whatever-American" celebration months with increasing resentment.
In these classes, EVERY ethnicity is discussed... except white people. In fact, when questioned by attendees as to why there are no Gov't programs of any kind for white people, the instructors become a little annoyed and snap back that "they don't need them". This is when I decided that I no longer needed to attend these silly classes. I figure I'll use the good sense that God gave me to determine the character of an individual...not the ridiculous Gov't training class!!”
My response is right on sister. Praise God!
Perhaps my lack of tolerance of bullies is due to my early childhood years living in the projects of east Baltimore. I detest watching bullies get away with pushing people around. This is exactly what I am witnessing in regards to the Left's war on my fellow Americans who are white.
A WMD of the Left's assault is the hate and violence generating lie that white men, particularly police, routinely murder young black males. When you teach black youths that criticizing the president is racist, that Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown were murdered by whites, that black flash mob attacks, the knockout game, polar bearing hunting, and assassinations of police are to be expected.
It is up to good folks like you and me to push back against the evil racial hate coming from the Left. So, what do I mean when I say “push back”. Once again allow me to make myself perfectly clear. I am not advocating violence or any such nonsense. I am advocating courage and doing the right thing.
For example: When little Buffy comes home from school in tears, feeling guilty for being white, her parents should overwhelm the school board and all the powers that be with calls, emails, and visits. As I said, I am not advocating any craziness, but simply standing up to the Left, not allowing them to victimize your child. This is how you deal with bullies.
During a radio interview, the host had a cow when I said white police do not murder blacks. I thought, “Fine, kick me off your stupid show. I refuse to allow that evil political narrative to stand; going unchallenged.”
The insidious reasoning behind the Left's purposeful generation of racial hate is political. In a nutshell, the Left seeks to sell blacks the lie that America is eternally racist, structured to make blacks fail. Vote for Democrats to keep racist rich white Republicans at bay, transform our racist system and make everything fair. I know folks, their narrative is untrue and so evil.
Lying to the American people comes easy to the left. The Left considers the sabotage of national race relations acceptable collateral damage to recruit minority voters.
Folks, we are engaged in a battle of good vs evil. It is my prayer that God gives you the grace, strength, wisdom and courage to push back against the Left's evil. No one in our great nation should be bullied, made to be ashamed of their race. The Left's war on white America must not be tolerated.

How many servings of global warming have you eaten today?
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/02/how_many_servings_of_global_warming_have_you_eaten_today.html
The Left now wants to label food according to how much it causes global warming. Really.
The nation’s top nutritional panel is recommending for the first time that Americans consider the impact on the environment when they are choosing what to eat, a move that defied a warning from Congress and, if enacted, could discourage people from eating red meat. The panel’s findings, issued Thursday in the form of a 571-page report, recommended that Americans be kinder to the environment by eating more foods derived from plants and fewer foods that come from animals. Red meat is deemed particularly harmful because of, among other things, the amount of land and feed required in its production.
Many scientists [many being the ones the Washington Post chose to talk to, if they chose to talk to any at all] say animal-based foods are a poorer choice for the environment because they are associated with significantly larger carbon emissions than their plant-based counterparts. Miriam Nelson, a professor at Tufts University and one of the committee’s members, said the panel is not saying that people should become vegans.
Carbon emissions? Why should we care about carbon emissions, unless we believe in global warming? But global warming has been discredited--temperature readings have been found to be falsified, temperatures haven't risen in 17 years, and man-made carbon dioxide is insignificant compared to naturally produced CO2 in the environment.
“We are saying that people need to eat less meat,” Nelson said. “We need to start thinking about what’s sustainable. .?.?. Other countries have already started doing this — including sustainability in their recommendations. We should be doing it, too.”
Thanks Miriam. So when we're preparing dinner, we should be reading the labeling on our meat thinking, "Hm, how many global warming calories will I be eating today?" Note that unlike eating only for yourself, where if you eat a lot, you get fat, when it comes to global warming calories, you can eat as much as you like and the Earth will not be affected, as long as every one else around you is on a diet. (If global warming were really happening, which it isn't.)
And that's what the Left is all about. They want to tell you how to live your life. They actually have something in common with Al Qaeda and the Islamic State. AQ and IS are death cults. The radical left are not death cults (not yet), but they feel guilty at being alive, feeling that the mere existence of humanity is defacing the Earth, and they feel that humanity, collectively, has to live moderately, or else the Earth will be destroyed. But unlike a Jonestown style cult where they drink the Kool Aid, they want you to drink the Kool Aid while they continue with their expansive lifestyle.
Will Al Gore move out of his mansion into a small apartment near a noisy railroad station? Will Nancy Pelosi bicycle ride to work instead of being driven in a chauffured car? Will Michelle Obama eat legumes and radishes and give up steak and hamburger? In each case the answer is no, but they want you to. That's why they are politicizing food, in their continuing efforts to control every aspect of your life.
The government tries to politicize everything. Last week it was top level domain names (adding .lgbt domains, so we can have reminders to think gay gay gay on the internet), and this week it is making us feel guilty about eating meat. What's next week?
Pedro Gonzales is the editor of Newsmachete.com, the conservative news site.
The Left now wants to label food according to how much it causes global warming. Really.
The nation’s top nutritional panel is recommending for the first time that Americans consider the impact on the environment when they are choosing what to eat, a move that defied a warning from Congress and, if enacted, could discourage people from eating red meat. The panel’s findings, issued Thursday in the form of a 571-page report, recommended that Americans be kinder to the environment by eating more foods derived from plants and fewer foods that come from animals. Red meat is deemed particularly harmful because of, among other things, the amount of land and feed required in its production.
Many scientists [many being the ones the Washington Post chose to talk to, if they chose to talk to any at all] say animal-based foods are a poorer choice for the environment because they are associated with significantly larger carbon emissions than their plant-based counterparts. Miriam Nelson, a professor at Tufts University and one of the committee’s members, said the panel is not saying that people should become vegans.

The Big Lie: 5.6% Unemployment
by Jim Clifton
Here's something that many Americans -- including some of the smartest and most educated among us -- don't know: The official unemployment rate, as reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, is extremely misleading.
Right now, we're hearing much celebrating from the media, the White House and Wall Street about how unemployment is "down" to 5.6%. The cheerleading for this number is deafening. The media loves a comeback story, the White House wants to score political points and Wall Street would like you to stay in the market.
None of them will tell you this: If you, a family member or anyone is unemployed and has subsequently given up on finding a job -- if you are so hopelessly out of work that you've stopped looking over the past four weeks -- the Department of Labor doesn't count you as unemployed. That's right. While you are as unemployed as one can possibly be, and tragically may never find work again, you are not counted in the figure we see relentlessly in the news -- currently 5.6%. Right now, as many as 30 million Americans are either out of work or severely underemployed. Trust me, the vast majority of them aren't throwing parties to toast "falling" unemployment.
There's another reason why the official rate is misleading. Say you're an out-of-work engineer or healthcare worker or construction worker or retail manager: If you perform a minimum of one hour of work in a week and are paid at least $20 -- maybe someone pays you to mow their lawn -- you're not officially counted as unemployed in the much-reported 5.6%. Few Americans know this.
Yet another figure of importance that doesn't get much press: those working part time but wanting full-time work. If you have a degree in chemistry or math and are working 10 hours part time because it is all you can find -- in other words, you are severely underemployed -- the government doesn't count you in the 5.6%. Few Americans know this.
There's no other way to say this. The official unemployment rate, which cruelly overlooks the suffering of the long-term and often permanently unemployed as well as the depressingly underemployed, amounts to a Big Lie.
And it's a lie that has consequences, because the great American dream is to have a good job, and in recent years, America has failed to deliver that dream more than it has at any time in recent memory. A good job is an individual's primary identity, their very self-worth, their dignity -- it establishes the relationship they have with their friends, community and country. When we fail to deliver a good job that fits a citizen's talents, training and experience, we are failing the great American dream.
Gallup defines a good job as 30+ hours per week for an organization that provides a regular paycheck. Right now, the U.S. is delivering at a staggeringly low rate of 44%, which is the number of full-time jobs as a percent of the adult population, 18 years and older. We need that to be 50% and a bare minimum of 10 million new, good jobs to replenish America's middle class.
I hear all the time that "unemployment is greatly reduced, but the people aren't feeling it." When the media, talking heads, the White House and Wall Street start reporting the truth -- the percent of Americans in good jobs; jobs that are full time and real -- then we will quit wondering why Americans aren't "feeling" something that doesn't remotely reflect the reality in their lives. And we will also quit wondering what hollowed out the middle class.

Obama Is Openly Colluding with the Enemy
site-iconamericanthinker.com/articles/2015/02/obama_is_openly_colluding_with_the_enemy.html
We are in the middle of a hot war in the Middle East, with constant terror attacks all over the world, including the United States, Europe, and Asia. The enemy is called violent Islam, or radical Islam, or fascist Islam, or reactionary Islam, or merely "orthodox Islam."
We constantly waste time quibbling about the name. But we know the enemy by now.
(And yes, there are plenty of Muslims who want peace, but who are too scared to speak out, with some brave exceptions I mention below. As long as the West colludes with violent Islam, peaceful Muslims will be too scared to speak out. As long as we fail to stand for freedom, we will be supporting the worst of the worst, who always terrorize their own populations first.
For fifty years, Muslims did not actively practice jihad against the West – until Jimmy Carter betrayed our ally the shah of Iran, and therefore empowered the first jihad-preaching Islamofascist regime in the world, the mullahcracy of Iran. Because Carter was the weak horse, millions of Muslims around the world sensed a change in the wind – and that is why jihad is now breaking out all over.)
The single most shocking fact today is that the U.S. government, under President Obama, is constantly colluding with the enemy.
Check out of the facts for yourself. Don't take anybody's word for it. Make your own informed decision. This is a question not of opinion, but of fact.
When a serving U.S. president has lost Foreign Policy magazine, the in-house trade union rag for the State Department, things have come to a bad pass. But here is Foreign Policy on Obama's "pivoting to Iran."
Iran is now going nuclear, courtesy of Barack Hussein Obama.
But wait! Our good friend Recip Erdogan of Turkey, "Obama's best friend in the Middle East" is now supporting ISIS – the worst mass murdering would-be regime on the Sunni side of the street.
Turkey has openly established recruiting stations for ISIS, called "IS consulates," and Obama's next "best friend" Qatar is feeding billions of dollars to ISIS. Meanwhile, the Muslim Brotherhood, Obama's biggest ideological ally, is also backing ISIS. Don't believe the cover story that ISIS just mushroomed up by a miraculous dispensation from on high.
You may not remember the name of Mohammed Elibiary, a top advisor to our Homeland Security folks. Mr. Elibiary is a big name among the Moobs (naturally). Patrick Poole has a nice summary of Mr. Elibiary's thoughts here. In a sane world, this man should be on our terrorist suspect list, but instead he is "advising" our Department of Homeland Security.
(And you remember Huma Abedin, another Moober loyalist, walking with Hillary with their heads devoutly covered over? Muslim Brotherhood money goes to the Clintons, the Carters, and the Obamas, and they all give real value for that money.)
The Moobers are a Muslim fascist cult going back to 1928, when the Mufti of Jerusalem was in an open alliance with Hitler, helping to send Arabs troops to fight for the Nazis.
In 1981 the Moobs assassinated Egypt's president, Anwar Sadat, for making peace with Israel.
In 2011 they were complicit in the overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, who was also trying to keep the Egypt-Israel peace treaty alive.
And today, in collusion with Obama, the Moobers are in open rebellion against the government of President El Sisi, the biggest peace advocate in the Arab world. (See below.)
All the signs therefore point to Obama as a major backer of ISIS on the one side, and of the Khomeinist nuclear-going tyranny on the other.
If they're really unspeakably evil, you can expect Obama to support them.
Obama's half-brother Malik Obama is a big Muslim Brotherhood money man. The MBs have espoused jihad against the modern world since 1928, when their organization was founded. Malik "oversees Muslim Brotherhood investments worldwide," and that means buying up politicians, like you-know-who. Malik is also a funder of Hamas, which has an identical war theology to ISIS's.
The Muslim Brotherhood assassinated President Anwar Sadat of Egypt forty years ago for making peace with Israel. After Obama pressured Egypt's longest-lasting peace-keeping president, Hosni Mubarak, into leaving office, at the beginning of the completely fraudulent "Arab Spring," a Muslim Brotherhood thug was "elected" president and started to purge the judiciary and military in Egypt.
Egypt's political elites revolted, and with the help of Saudi Arabia, they overthrew the Islamic fascists in favor of General El Sisi.
This administration still hates El Sisi and is still plotting with the Muslim Brotherhood against El Sisi.
Every single time, Obama backs the worst criminals against more civilized forces. Just look at the facts.
Don't think the Egyptians don't know what Obama is doing. In the Middle East, in Moscow and Paris, everybody knows what Obama is doing. Only the victims of media propaganda are still in denial.
Obama's collusion with undeniable evil is especially hard for Americans to believe, because it's emotionally painful to see your own president colluding with the worst mass murderers since the Nazis. Just keep looking at the facts.
The White House just lied its head off again, this time about the Taliban, who now are "not really terrorists." The Taliban knowingly protected Osama bin Laden while he was planning the 9/11/01 attacks on New York City, but they are "not terrorists." The Taliban tried to assassinate Malala Yousafzai (now winner of a Nobel Peace Prize) for advocating education for girls and women in Afghanistan, but they are "not terrorists." To Obama it's only Republicans who are terrorists.
What Mr. Obama does not support is Muslims who want peace, and who are willing to risk their lives to say so.
The most prominent example of a pro-peace leader today is President El Sisi of Egypt, who just told his religious establishment at Al Azhar University in Cairo that Islam "needs a religious revolution."
Obama said nothing. Instead, he just keeps backing the most barbaric and disgusting ideology in the world.
Now the Iranian caliphate is on the march, just as surely as the Third Reich was on the march in Hitler's time.
Three high-ranking Iranian officers were just caught in a planning meeting with three Hezb'allah terrorist leaders, on the Syrian border just north of Israel. The Israelis caught wind of the meeting and bombed them to smithereens. Now the mullahcracy are boiling over with rage, but they are still afraid of Israel's nuclear arms and effective military. That is the role the United States should be playing: keeping a clear moral compass and destroying mass-murdering barbarians in a true alliance of civilized peoples. Millions of Muslims will rise up against their terror masters as soon as the United States signals a recovery of its moral center.
Israel defends itself like a pit bull. It will use nuclear weapons if it must. The Iranians know that, and in spite of all their glorification of martyrdom, they will not risk Israel's nuclear retaliation until they have overwhelming superiority.
Instead, they are going after Sunni apostates against the will of Allah, especially the Saudis and Egypt.
What is emerging today is a ferocious Shi'a-Sunni civil war, with Israel taking the side of Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Obama is supporting truly evil forces, those who kill women and children for the fun of it, like Boko Haram, the Islamofascist monsters who are now trying to conquer Nigeria.
The Iranians now surround Israel on two of three sides, and ISIS is attacking in the Sinai Desert. But if you look at the map, you can see the real strategic targets of the Iranians, now with Obama's collusion. Iran's real target is the two holy cities of Mecca and Medina. Those were Ayatollah Khomeini's real target when he tried to stir up a rebellion against the Saudis during the Hajj, when Iranian pilgrims attacked the Saudis forty years ago. The Islamic "Republic" is a war theocracy, and its aims are always conquest of the infidels and the apostates. To Iran, Saudi Arabia is worse than Israel and the West, since the Sunni Muslims abandoned the true way of Allah.
(Naturally, ISIS and the Saudis say the same thing about the Iranians.)
So even Israel and America are only secondary targets. Each half of the Muslim world considers the other half to be betraying Allah. Once the Iranians control Mecca and Medina, they believe that all Muslims will fall under their control.
From the actions of this administration, Obama agrees with them.

Report: Federal Government Issued Nearly 5.5 Million Work Permits to Foreign Nationals Since 2009
By Ryan Lovelace
More than 5.46 million foreign nationals have received work permits from the federal government since 2009, according to a new report from the Center for Immigration Studies. Data uncovered from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services agency reveal that approximately 982,000 work permits were given to illegal immigrants and other foreign nationals unqualified for admission, most of whom crossed the border without inspection. USCIS is the agency within the Department of Homeland Security responsible for issuing work permits and processing applications related to President Obama’s executive action on immigration. On Tuesday, the Senate is scheduled to vote on a bill that funds DHS, while blocking funding that would allow USCIS to implement the president’s executive action.
The remarkable number of work permits granted by the federal government to law-breaking aliens better explains how all net jobs growth since 2007 has gone to immigrants. The government issued approximately 1.7 million work permits since 2009 to aliens whose status was not known, not recorded, or not disclosed by USCIS, according to the report. The report says employment is not authorized by law for approximately 1.2 million immigrants who collected work permits while having a temporary visa status. And the data show that approximately 1,200 new work permits went to unlawful entrants who were denied asylum, were suspected of using fraudulent documentation, were stowaways, or were refused at a port of entry.
Approximately 1.1 million legal immigrants and 700,000 guest workers enter the country every year along with the millions of foreign nationals that have received work permits from the federal government, according to a statement from CIS. “I was astonished at the huge number of work permits that are being issued by the Obama administration outside the legal immigration system through executive discretion, especially at a time of high unemployment and stagnant wages,” said Jessica Vaughan the director of policy studies at CIS in a statement. “Besides the effect on the American worker, it encourages and rewards more illegal immigration.

Global warming believers are like a hysterical ‘cult’: MIT scientist compares 'climate alarmists' to religious fanatics

Worst. State Department. Ever.
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/01/worst_state_department_ever.html
The embarrassing spectacle in Paris as Secretary of State John Kerry hauled out a singer popular 4 decades ago to sing (badly) a song written by somebody else that nobody in France is family with clinches the case. The State Department has been infiltrated. Not as much by communists or Islamists, but by morons.
The Obama State Department has not only been downgraded to an afterthought, as foreign policy is controlled by a White House national security cabal that includes Valerie Jarrett and Ben Rhodes, it has been staffed by people who deeply humiliate us on the world stage.
Muslim call to prayer blasted out over UCLA
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/01/muslim_call_to_prayer_blasted_out_over_ucla_.html
As we know by now, after the powers that be at Duke University decided to allow the Muslim call to prayer to be broadcast from the university chapel, they later changed their mind.
But fighting creeping Sharia requires constant vigilance. It should be noted that this intrusive prayer already blasts over the campus of UCLA – a publically funded institution I might add.
This is an act of Islamic supremacism.
If Muslim students at UCLA can’t figure out how to tell time or keep track of when they need to pray, that’s their problem. The call to prayer is something that is blasted over loudspeakers in Muslim majority countries and Muslim enclaves around Detroit. We’ve already heard enough “Allahu Akbar” for a lifetime.

Pelosi Appoints a Race-Baiting Muslim to a National Security Committee
Nancy Pelosi has appointed Muslim Congressman Andre Carson(D-IN) to the House’s Permanent Select Committee just a week after Islamic terrorists slaughtered 17 people in Paris. Carson has familial ties to Louis Farrakhan, hates the Tea Party, and sees U.S. schools as ripe for Islamic indoctrination.
In 2007, Andre Carson tried to distance himself from the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader in order to secure his grandmother's congressional seat. The late Julia Carson and Farrakhan, according to the Indy Star, went "way back." Carson's wife even said Farrakhan was with Julia the night Andre was born.
Before she died in December, 2007 Congresswoman Julia Carson's requested Farrakhan speak at her funeral service.
Wishing to honor his grandmother's dying wish to have Farrakhan say a few words over her casket, Carson sought guidance from Imam Muhammad Siddeeq of the Al Nurah Islamic Center in Indianapolis. Siddeeq said Andre needed to make a “choice between following Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, with its street credibility on social matters but record of divisiveness, or more universal Islamic teachings that promote tolerance. At crunch time, Siddeeq said, Carson chose tolerance.”
When Farrakhan not only showed up but tacitly endorsed Andre Carson for Congress, stating "[Julia] wants [Andre] to succeed her, “Carson had to quickly meet with various Jewish groups to insist he was not a "Louis Farrakhan Muslim."
Carson's "crunch time tolerance" was short-lived and just long enough to secure his victory in a March, 2008 special election.
In 2010, true to form, Carson accused anti-Obamacare protesters of calling him and other lawmakers the 'N'-word at a Capitol Hill rally. Not one video surfaced of anybody shouting a racial slur at the Congressman. Conclusion? Carson, now privy to classified information, is a liar.
At a 2011 Congressional Black Caucus job fair Carson told the audience "some of them in Congress right now of this Tea Party would love to see you and me ...hanging on a tree."
Sounds like a "Farrakhan Muslim" to me.
In 2012 at an Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) convention Carson suggested American schools should be modeled after madrassas "where the foundation is the Quran."
Incidentally, Carson's wife, Mariama Shaheed-Carson received a $250,000 Mind Trust award recently to start her own charter school in Indianapolis. Since both believe "the Muslim family is under attack" in America there's little doubt that taking "American education to the next level" involves sharia.
Carson also spoke at the May 2014 “Activism in Islam: Be Engaged” ICNA conference in Baltimore. Four years after his slurs against the Tea Party, Carson told the 2014 ICNA audience members "in 2010 we saw a vote the bums out movement... and Americans voted the bums out and brought in lunatics." After the IRS targeted Tea Party groups, this kind of rhetoric is further proof Carson doesn’t belong in Congress, much less on an Intelligence Committee.
In the same video Carson says we need more Muslims in the Cabinet. If 20,000 Muslims, out of 8 million in America, gave $100, the $2 million would help install Muslim representatives who "could push back on anti-sharia legislation." One of the most important issues, says Carson, is that “law enforcement continues to spy on our communities." With the support of CAIR, ISNA and ICNA, Carson wants activist groups to act as ‘incubators” in order to develop the next Nancy Pelosis, Keith Ellisons and Barack Obamas.
With radical Muslims parading in and out of the White House over the past six years, installing Carson on a national security committee is more proof that the Islamic threat we face is inside our own government.
Nancy Pelosi has appointed Muslim Congressman Andre Carson(D-IN) to the House’s Permanent Select Committee just a week after Islamic terrorists slaughtered 17 people in Paris. Carson has familial ties to Louis Farrakhan, hates the Tea Party, and sees U.S. schools as ripe for Islamic indoctrination.
In 2007, Andre Carson tried to distance himself from the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader in order to secure his grandmother's congressional seat. The late Julia Carson and Farrakhan, according to the Indy Star, went "way back." Carson's wife even said Farrakhan was with Julia the night Andre was born.
Before she died in December, 2007 Congresswoman Julia Carson's requested Farrakhan speak at her funeral service.
Wishing to honor his grandmother's dying wish to have Farrakhan say a few words over her casket, Carson sought guidance from Imam Muhammad Siddeeq of the Al Nurah Islamic Center in Indianapolis. Siddeeq said Andre needed to make a “choice between following Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, with its street credibility on social matters but record of divisiveness, or more universal Islamic teachings that promote tolerance. At crunch time, Siddeeq said, Carson chose tolerance.”
When Farrakhan not only showed up but tacitly endorsed Andre Carson for Congress, stating "[Julia] wants [Andre] to succeed her, “Carson had to quickly meet with various Jewish groups to insist he was not a "Louis Farrakhan Muslim."

Idiotic leftist responses to Charlie Hebdo #1
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/01/idiotic_leftist_responses_to_charlie_hebdo_1.html
For complicated and fundamentally irrational reasons, the American left is determined to deny the obvious and pretend that Islam is a “religion of peace,” and if religion has anything to do with violence, why, all religions are equally bad.
Case in point: Sally Kohn, the former Fox News contributor now seen on CNN by a tiny fraction of the audience that once was treated to her defenses of the left.
On Twitter, she erected this straw man:
Twitchy collected some of the responses, pointing out that nobody is claiming that all Muslims are responsible. The problem is that a nontrivial minority of Muslims do approve and even celebrate such actions. But Sally wasn’t done. She made this absurd claim:
For her source, she cited an article CNN published that conveniently ignored 9/11’s 3,000+ deaths, Fort Hood (“workplace violence,” dontcha know) and many other Islamic terror actions.
Is anyone persuaded? Does CNN want to drive away viewers? If so, it is succeeding.

Idiotic leftist responses to Charlie Hebdo #2
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/01/idiotic_leftist_responses_to_charlie_hebdo_2.html
For some reason, former Vermont governor and Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean has taken it upon himself to declare that the Koran does not sanction violence. This is so profoundly ignorant and counterfactual that it suggests he has never read the Koran before speaking out on its contents.
See for yourself:
Andrew McCarthy, who has read the Koran, offers just a few citations that refute Dean:
... one who studied Islamic doctrine might point out that the scriptures invoke the word “terror” in explicitly endorsing wars of conquest against non-Muslims (see, e.g., the Koran’s Sura 3:151: “Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers …”; Sura 8:12: “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them”; Bukhari Hadith 52:220: “Allah’s Apostle said … ‘I have been made victorious with terror.’”) But why study the ideology of Islamic supremacists? After all, we’ve got the feel-good dogma of Western progressives, who insist that terrorism is not only unrelated to Islam but is, in fact, “anti-Islamic activity,” as former British Home Secretary Jacqui Smith maintained.
Dean compounded his idiocy with gun control claptrap, as pointed out by Mark Finkelstein of Newsbusters:
Dean goes on to decry the fact that the shooters had Kalashnikovs despite France's "tremendous" gun control laws. Does "when guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns" ring a bell, Howard?
Thanks to France’s gun control, the Muslims were able to methodically execute their targets. If the editors had been armed, it would have played out very differently.

Idiotic leftist responses to Charlie Hebdo #3

A fatal witch’s brew of arrogance, ignorance, and patronizing was broadcast from the podium of the White House pressroom yesterday by Imam Josh Earnest. Daniel Halper of the Weekly Standard reports:
White House press secretary Josh Earnest explained to reporters today that the United States needs to "redouble" efforts to explain "what the tenets of Islam actually are."
Here is the full quote (emphases added by Halper):
"There are some individuals that are using a peaceful religion and grossly distorting it, and trying to use its tenets to inspire people around the globe to carry out acts of violence. And we have enjoyed significant success in enlisting leaders in the Muslim community, like I said, both in the United States and around the world to condemn that kind of messaging, to condemn those efforts to radicalize individuals, and to be clear about what the tenets of Islam actually are. And we’re going to redouble those efforts in the days and weeks ahead.
How many jihadists (or, for that matter, how many Muslims) will be persuaded about the tenets of their religion by a White House effort?
Why haven’t Earnest or his boss spoken up in praise of Egyptian president Sisi, who has laid on the line to his people the necessity of modernizing Islam? Pretending that Koranic and other scriptural imperatives to violence don’t exist is futile. The argument has to be made that they are self-defeating.
“It’s inconceivable,” he [Sisi] said, “that the thinking that we hold most sacred should cause the entire umma [Islamic world] to be a source of anxiety, danger, killing and destruction for the rest of the world. Impossible!” (snip)
That thinking [that is responsible for producing “anxiety, danger, killing and destruction” around the world] -- I am not saying “religion” but “thinking” -- that corpus of texts and ideas that we have sacralized over the centuries, to the point that departing from them has become almost impossible, is antagonizing the entire world. It’s antagonizing the entire world.
Of course, President Obama supported the Muslim Brotherhood takeover of Egypt, which Sisi overthrew with popular support. The cold shoulder given to him by the Obama administration is a historic blunder, in the most charitable interpretation

Young Americans extra-miserable under Obama
site-iconamericanthinker.com/blog/2015/01/young_americans_extra_miserable_under_obama.html
Buyer's remorse among America's Obama-supporting youth? One would hope so.
Young America's Foundation released its latest Youth Misery Index – a compilation of what the organization considers the three most important statistics to determine how young people in the United States are doing. Those stats are youth unemployment (18.1%), average graduating debt ($30,000), and national debt per capita ($58,400). YAF calls these numbers, respectively, "one of the highest levels since World War II," "record-breaking," and "the highest ever."
Put them all together, and you get a Youth Misery Index of 106.5.
I corresponded with YAF's Ashley Pratte on the significance of the numbers. Per Pratte, "this isn't the hope and change that America wanted – especially its young people." When I asked her about the youth's stereotypical support of Democratic policies, she suggested that Millennials are starting to turn around, at least on the current government: "today, Millennials are disenchanted with the Obama administration and are jaded in regard to the federal government. Young America's Foundation polling shows that 60% of young people disagree with federal government intrusion in our daily lives."
Pratte was unequivocal about where America's youth's woes are coming from. "We attribute the disproportionate amount of unemployed Millennials to Obama's massive expansion of the federal government. This administration has tried to create a permanent dependent class out of this generation – hoping they will seek the government as the solution to their problems."
As a Millennial myself, I'll drop a personal anecdote here. Shortly after I graduated from college in New York City, I met a man ("a guy" seems more appropriate) my age who was between jobs. Though he had found enough part-time work to support himself, he decided to apply for federal benefits anyway. He figured that as long as he qualified, he might as well seek out the extra cash, hipsters on food stamps-style. He knew as well as I did that taxes from my paycheck would bankroll his new income stream.
"Clearly," Pratte says, "we are a very pro-limited government generation, and that message is resonating loud and clear." Hopefully she's right, and the guy I knew can now be considered an outlier. Hopefully most of America's young people have Paul Ryan's image of the unemployed twenty-something moving back to his childhood bedroom, complete with Obama poster on the wall, stuck powerfully in their heads. Hopefully all the Obama bumper stickers I see in the city where I now live were plastered on those bumpers by non-Millennials – or perhaps by Millennials who've been meaning to scrape them off but haven't found the time, because they're too busy looking for work.
A popular quotation often attributed to Winston Churchill reads that if you're conservative at twenty, you have no heart, and if you're liberal at forty, you have no brain. With the economic reality shown by YAF's new data dragging them down, plus the Democratic Party's decidedly heartless continuing campaign against children in the womb, maybe America's youth will finally make the quotation obsolete.
2 pages of Obamacare tax instructions, IRS demands 'shared responsibility payment'
The complicated process of signing up for Obamacare is now being matched by IRS instructions to help Americans figure out how much in healthcare taxes they owe Uncle Sam.
The agency has issued 21 pages of instructions, complete with links to at least three long forms and nine tip sheets.
It is geared to those who have Obamacare or who owe a fine, dubbed “shared responsibility payment,” for refusing to get health insurance. The IRS warned that everybody must have health insurance or pay the tax.
