Opinion by George McClellan:

Expect Obama to try every stratagem, trick, threat, or hollow promise that allows him to make a signature appointment of another leftist hack to fill the now vacant seat of Antonin Scalia, Supreme Court Justice, recently deceased. Good or bad, for Obama it would be the ultimate act for his legacy. I said, expect Obama to try “every trick, threat or hollow promise” to achieve his ends. I am specifically thinking of the empty suit who is the senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell because, upon McConnell lies the ultimate answer to this non-pressing problem.

McConnell has developed a history of saying one thing and doing the opposite. The senate vote reauthorizing extension of the Import-Export Bank is a case in point. His lies to the Senators, exposed by Ted Cruz, is another. There are others as well! Mitch McConnell is a liar, and cannot be trusted to do the right thing. He must be watched like a coiled snake in the grass.

After Justice Scalia’s untimely death at the Texas Dude Ranch, Obama, who was apparently on a golfing holiday in Palm Springs, Ca., made a few remarks drawing upon the words found in our constitution. He said, appointing a suitable candidate for senate confirmation was “a responsibility he takes seriously…” Really? The duty to faithfully execute the duties of Office of the President of the US, to protect and defend the Constitution of the US are responsibilities he constantly ignores. His legacy will be that his sense of duty leads him to exploit the features of his office that provides him cover for trashing the very document that created his position in the first place.

Hillary Clinton has been awarded the greatest gift of her campaign, a political non-problem that will suck the air out of all campaigns, including hers, to stay out of jail. While nobody pays attention to anything except how the awful GOP is thwarting government, the rule of law, & etc. etc., election time still draws near while she disappears back into the obscurity of her campaign.

I believe we can probably expect the following stratagem to unfold: Obama will delay his choice while the leftist media hypes the Democrats demands to return the Supreme Court to its full nine membership immediately and that Obama should make the selection. His announcement could take up to two months so the maximum damage can be done to the Republican party.

After Obama’s first choice, a volunteer for the destructive sacrifice to follow, with the anguished outcry and demands from the left to get on with it, the GOP will cave in (they always have) and Mitch McConnell will move Obama’s real choice, a Kagen, Sotomayor clone, forward.

McConnell’s collapse will be heralded as true statesmanship by McCain, Graham and the few other GOP moderates in the Senate who feel compelled to “reach across the aisle” to demonstrate true bipartisanship. The cries of ‘traitors, traitors” from the likes of Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Rand Paul and possibly Marco Rubio, will be “poo-pooed” by the Democrats as another typical, angry right-wing attempt to crash Obama’s government and bring it to a halt. Oh, woe!

As president, Obama has the constitutional right, not the power or the duty, but the right to appoint candidates to fill vacancies on the Supreme Court. The Senate Majority leader has the right, the power and the duty to let ‘em die, unanswered on his desk until after 20 January 2017. McConnell must proceed with the same determination that Obama will employ to stop any Obama appointment until after Obama is gone, and hopefully forgotten. Will he? I don’t know!

Opinion by George McClellan

 
Let’s hope the GOP debates are finally over. I can’t go through another one of those debates. The Greenville, SC event was a tawdry spectacle eliciting nothing new except to illuminate what a bunch of idiots we have running for office. I sincerely excuse Dr. Ben Carson who is always a gentleman and demonstrated it yet once again; And, as much as I hate to say it, John Kasich, who is from Ohio, managed to retain some sort of dignity, and he is excused as well.

Hot Air, a political internet newsletter, even has a stupid poll based on the noise level of moans, groans, cheers and jeers from the audience and, seriously reported audience reaction as an important polling device. What kind of data collection is that? Are we really supposed to gauge our choices on noise from a packed WWF style audience? Give me a break!

What the heck got into Jeb Bush? Watching Jeb spittle and drool while trying to think up the next awful word to say about Trump, who was already ten steps ahead of him, was a pathetic display of desperation coupled with incompetence, driven by fear. Jeb should have quit the race long before now. His lame attacks on Trump, with his offended schoolboy face, lacked the killer instinct that Trump possesses. He flounders around in panic wondering why all his PAC money can’t buy him the nomination because he’s a Bush. He deserves it, doesn’t he?

For awhile, I believed the audience must have thought they were at a wrestling arena until they realized the show got better than fake falls by grunt and groan artists. This was a real blood letting, and for what purpose? The enemy is Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party. That’s where these candidates should have been pointing their barbs. Nothing new can be said about Trump, Bush, Rubio, or Cruz that we haven’t already heard. Yelling about it at this late stage, and egged on by a CBS monitor, only diminishes the yeller. Jeb, go home. Panic doesn’t fit you!

So, if we are to judge by the noise, contrary to Hot Air’s assessment, then Ted Cruz came out dusted, maybe bruised, but certainly ahead. Trump allowed himself to be baited into revealing unnecessary retorts of pique when he could have simply stood there, waved his hand nonchalantly like he does and say nothing. He would have been a winner for sure but now, everyone sees he has a thin skin that can be pricked. Sad.

Listening to master Rubio is also becoming boring. I must admit that Chris Christi was probably right. Rubio’s polished sound bites delivered with his schoolboy enthusiasm never varies. He say’s exactly the same words over and over again. Marco needs a term or even two as Florida’s governor before trying to run for President again. Enough said!

I gave Kasich a pass in the first paragraph because, except for polite applause, the audience reaction was about nil, neither good or bad and certainly he garnered no jeers. His message has remained the same, about how good he has been as a money manager. Maybe that might stick once the base gets really tired of this yelling nonsense. Time will tell.

For Trump, the audience was packed with hostel Indians and he attacked them straight away. Oops! He allowed himself to get snookered when he didn’t need to. Not a good show for him but he lost nothing by it. Basically it’s a waste of time for Trump to even be there because he’s already captured the conservative base. Nobody cares what Bush thinks about him and the sooner he realizes that the better. Isn’t this fun?

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (14 Feb 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:
Continuing my theme of the Obama administration being the greatest threat to America and American’s, we are now treated to a soft sell plan by the FBI to alert American’s to be aware of their plan to protect us from domestic terrorism. The message is to teach us to be aware of those web sites dedicated to radicalizing and recruiting our youths lest they should act on behalf of terrorist groups to spread hate and discontent. Sounds pretty good, doesn’t it?

The FBI wants to protect us, they say, from violent extremists teaching radical ideologies to impressionable youths. They want to encourage community groups, schools, churches and even families to participate in their anti-terrorism program by monitoring what our youths are saying, doing and watching on their computers. Reading didn’t make the cut.

Upon viewing the FBI web site closely however, one can not help but notice that they are not warning us against the murderous threats from Islamic Jihadism wanting to spread Shariah Law throughout the land. The FBI is focusing instead on such innocuous groups as the Sovereign Citizens Extremists, Anti-abortion extremists, animal rights and environmental extremists, white supremacy extremists, anarchist extremists and militia extremists. In fact, if you were to ‘click’ on each site enumerated, a propagandized description comes up telling the viewer just how awful that group is. They even have a quiz one may take for each group.

Not listed as dangerous, yet, are Tea Party Activists, Constitutional activists, Black Lives Matter extremists, Islamic Jihadists or Democrats. Lest you have may have forgotten, so far, not one murderous outrage committed here in America, with the single possible exception of Timmothy McVey and the Oklahoma bombing, has been done by a tea party member, or a member of any constitutionalist group. By the way, early evidence that was quickly surpassed in the initial Oklahoma Federal Building investigation, showed that Timmothy McVey apparently did have contact with a then unidentified Islamic group.

Indeed, all the killings that make the news have been perpetrated by Islamic Jihadists, i.e.: NYC, twice, Ft. Hood, Tx., Garland, Tx., San Bernardino, Ca., and Chattanooga, Tn.. All the other shootings that sometimes make the news, including the daily slaughter in Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston and New Orleans, have been committed by black or Mexican criminal gangs, registered Democrats or unstable white youths from liberal democrat families.

The most dangerous man in America, Barak Hussain Obama is, I believe, intent on creating a massive outrage before his term is up to justify martial law. That any FBI agent is even remotely involved in such nonsense would be a surprise to me. I reckon the people who create and monitor the web site are not Special Agents of the FBI but are hired or appointed acolytes of the politically controlled, inept, un-American party now in the hands of a crypto-marxist crackpot!

That “violent extremists” here are considered domestic American terrorists, but not Islamists, will be their excuse to further erode, by their own violence, our Constitutional freedoms. Since whites are the 60% majority of the population, then they must therefore, compose the majority of the terrorists that must be dealt with. That’s Obamas thinking. Of course those “terrorists” designated by Obama, so far are not guilty of any violence, destruction of property, deaths or violent assaults except, to be victims of the government in Burns, Oregon themselves. I do not include the animal rights and environmental terrorists in my calculation because they have done considerable damage to private property but they’re not killing anybody.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the constitution is the way, Now, go get imm!

Who Owns What, Where? Follow the Money!

The final arrests of the four remaining American protesters in the Wildlife Refuge in Burns, Oregon, is simply another step by a rogue government of jihadists, marxists and fascists, to force, at the point of a gun, the compliance of Americans to the unconstitutional practices of a criminal administration. There can be no police state if the people refuse to comply with it. The  few in Burns Oregon have tried and have shown other Americans the way.

This incident, like the Bundy Ranch standoff last year, raises the question of who actually does own the vast stretches of lands in the west, long owned by cattle ranchers, farmers and miners to create the wealth that made America the formidable nation it is. To whom does it belong?  the individual states and therefore the people, or the federal government? This is a question that absolutely must be resolved.

Government, long has arbitrarily made decisions for us, often without our consent but always with our silent acquiescence, because we didn’t know what to do. Over the decades, Americans have come to trust government enough to permit them to make decisions for us while we worried about creating families, earning a living to support and educate our children and to grow old with a sound retirement, hopefully surrounded by our children and grand children.

History, if we study it for the truth it contains, tells of many collusions between government and special interests, like banks, railroads, highway builders and so on. Of course right of ways, had to be claimed (from whom?), buffalo hunted to feed work crews, and farms plowed to provide a greater abundance of food stuffs.

It cannot be argued against that most of these things, early in our history, helped promote an industrialized and agriculturally sufficient America to permit us to claim the exceptionalism that Obama doesn’t recognize. He wants to tear it down, in the name of fairness and income equality and, in so doing, replace the white European-American culture, with its advances in science, industry and medicine, with sub-continent savages, goat herders and camel jockeys.

The feckless arrogance of the federal government, starting as far back as Woodrow Wilson, has enabled them to get away with their Socialization plans because for every one step the Socialists took forward, they would claim three because there was no push back by Republicans who were supposed to defend the constitution. The Republicans have absented themselves from the governing process for so long that they have grown accustomed to it. Now, it is almost too late. We now need a bunch of new Republicans who will do what they pledge to do.

Two hundred years ago, government and industry together, whether for wealth, Indian control, fur trade monopolies or mining and timber concessions, worked fairly well together because most men were at least honorable and kept their word. While no man is expected to work without just compensation, to cheat the systems, as politicians are doing with accounting frauds, reveals that Duty, Honor and Country are only words chiseled onto a wall. Most politicians today, men and women, are without honor, scruples, or dignity. Most lie for a living and most actually get away with it.  Only a police state can save them now, but not for long.

The Burns, Oregon protesters, acting in a righteous cause, clearly did pledge their lives, fortunes and scare honor to defend their beliefs and the Constitution against a rogue and out of control government. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go join ‘em, if you can! (11 Feb 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

Reading the supposed unbiased post Iowa poll results declaring Marco Rubio to be the best choice as our Republican candidate because he’s the only Republican who can defeat Hillary in the General Election, smacks of hostile resentment and a deep seated fear lurking within the GOP establishment that things just might not go their way. This is troubling news indeed and suggests some form of chicanery may be afoot. We’ll know for sure if Jeb Bush actually becomes our candidate.

Haven’t we heard this story from them before: “Only McCain can beat Obama” and, “only Romney can beat Obama?” A full court press is underway by the media, in league with the GOP north-eastern establishment Republicans, to make sure they choose, if it’s not to be Hillary, our (their) candidate for us so they can continue business as usual.

Poor ol’ Jeb Bush. He’s so far back in the running they need a spot light to tell if he’s still really there at all. Things for him are so bad they drug out his brother and even trotted out his sainted ol’ mother, Barbara Bush, to tout for him like betting on a racehorse.

The fact is, anybody can beat Hillary! Just consider what that aging old socialist dingbat, Bernie Sanders, is doing to her. She has no record of accomplishment to defend, she has to guardedly explain why she’s keeping one step ahead of the FBI, possibly going to prison soon, and then concocts such obvious lies that there is a growing deep despair within the democrat ranks.

Hillary is shameless and without character. She even tries to include Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice as co-conspirators by claiming they did the same thing when they occupied that office, i.e.: “everybody does it!” (use private email server) I don’t think so!

The Dems. even drug out their first woman Sec. State, Madeleine Albright who said there is a ‘special place in Hell for women who don’t support women,’’ meaning Hillary. So, support Carley Fiorina instead. The Democrats are in panic folks. Any candidate running against her will win.

To further signal their growing panic, newspaper magnate Rupert Murdock suggested, perhaps tongue in cheek, that John, the Vietnam Vet, Kerry, should be ready to stand in for his second smack down. And, don’t let’s forget that Uncle Joe Biden lurks in the wings ready to spring to the rescue as his last chance. I wonder where he keeps his mask, costume and cape?

Having said that, conservatives still have a serious problem with how to deal with our ineffective, do nothing Republican politicians, those that don’t keep their promises and vote to fund every program Obama demanded without a whimper in the Omnibus Spending bill. Sad, very sad.

Watching the New Hampshire GOP debate changed little for me. It’s a shame that Chris Christi is one of those eastern establishment company men types. He all but chewed up Marco Rubio tonight and spit him out. He’s great fun. Trump is Trump and his answer to the question, “how does he define a conservative” could have been easily answered if he said “hey, I’m a capitalist, a wealth creating businessman.” the best conservative by definition there is!  And gentle Ben, who does have answers, simply gets forgotten in the heat of rhetorical debate. I know that John Kasich is governor of Ohio, that he balanced budgets, made things grow and still loves little children, but he’s still annoying. Ted Crus continues to be a spot on debater and my only big question is: Where was Carley?

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (6 Feb 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

Obama promised Americans “Hope and Change.” He also promised to fundamentally change America. He did not promise to do it in the best interests of Americans. We have since learned that “Hope” is not a policy and “Change” is unaffordable. We should have learned this lesson in Obama’s first four years in office. For Obama, progress is backwards like is his reckless “leading from behind” foreign policy schemes!

Hillary, The Awful, represents neither “Hope” or “Change.” except she hopes, this time, that she actually gets to become president. Clearly, her mission, besides enjoying the novelty of being the first female president, is to complete the looting of the US treasury, the Saudi Arabian treasury, Russia’s treasury if she can open it, and anybody else who has a couple of coins to rub together. She is the female version of a Rumplestiltskin as she clutches her gold coins, and the Clinton Foundation is her counting house. Of course, if she does become president, a steady stream of young female flesh will be made available for the First Husband if only to keep him occupied and out of her way. Progress, for her means to remain stationary until the smoke clears, then get out of Dodge. By then, it will be all over for America anyway.

Obama’s “change”, what is it? We know the unemployed labor force is disastrously high and that unskilled, low cost workers are being imported to fill labor type jobs that Americans once held. That’s change, certainly. Also, Americas skilled technical work force is being replaced by skilled foreign technocrats under a corrupted visa waiver program. That’s change too! Who is it good for? Not Americans, that’s for sure.

Jeb Bush used an interesting word in the debates. He said there has to be a “Consensus”, presumably meaning agreement(s) between…political parties? Political parties and the voters? Opposing candidates of political parties? Big money donors and political candidates? Big money donors and voters? Consensus with whom, I ask? There are barriers here too deep to ford, too high climb and too broad to go around. It’s the difference between a Constitutional America that was once the envy of the world and the squalid socialism Obama and Clinton want that we saw in Mother Russia, Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. Apparently we have not learned our lessons.

What consensus can be obtained when there is a divergent viewpoint on where the United States should be headed? Trump and Cruz supporters look far beyond the contest between Conservative and Socialist forms of government. What they see, what we see, is a festering isolation between our elected politicians and the American people. The voters correctly believe that a sufficient number of politicians have been bought and paid for by financial interests so great and so formidable that no change can ever come from within.

How else does one explain the populist Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders phenomena? The insiders hate and fearTed Cruz. They only fear the Donald and only laugh at the aging Sanders, the man behind the curtain in the wonderful city of Oz. I jest, but Sanders may just knock the criminal Hillary Clinton off her pedestal and right into prison. That’s a consensus!

Obama for Supreme Court Justice? It’s happened once before with Taft. What hasn’t happened before is Obama, or any President, to be nominated to prison for treason. That could happen under a Cruz or Trump presidency. As Hillary said herself, “Nobody is too big not to go to jail.” Prophetic words indeed. And, that certainly defines “hope and change,” doesn’t it?

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, let’s go get ‘em! (31 Jan 2015)

Opinion written by George McClellan:

Many feel that government is incapable of doing anything honestly and will, by habit, consistently operate in a corrupt manner that alway’s ends up screwing the tax payers. The formula is so entrenched that any GOP reformer will wilt in the face of stiff opposition to any attempts at correction. It must have something to do with all the very rich lawyers up there.

There is little hope of ever correcting the constant stream of injustices tax payers suffer at the hands of politicians who are beholden to Unions, Wall Street bankers, sanctified non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) and liberal do gooders groups who are all permitted to wallow in the trough of tax payer largess through grants, quantitive easing schemes and awarded contracts. This corruption, hidden behind the gossamer curtain of doing good deeds, causes untold destruction to the free enterprise system and does so without accountability.

Consider the sad case of former first lady and Democrat presidential hopeful, Hillary Rodham Clinton, once a lawyer, whose active time in the trenches of government service left a trail of bribes, deaths, destruction, misery and despair. Yet, she’s still abides among us, unfazed and untouched wanting to do even more good deeds “for the American people.” She denies any accountability for her crimes because she is protected by the corrupted media and, to do so would ensure her a bed in a prison cell. Why is she even here now? One can only hope!

This moral malaise of political corruption has also infected our judicial system, one of appointing cronies as jurists who adjudicate according to the political philosophy of the individual(s) who appointed them. Appointed Jurists bask in their sinecures for life; elected Jurists do not. The justice system, once considered trustworthy, is now often proven to be a flawed system where corruption becomes apparent and citizens are exposed to the whims of local despots, federal, state and local, who operate as rouges under the color of their authority. We see that it has even extended to the Supreme Court where no accountability is ever expected or required.

Laws are made by politicians often with no reference to the people who will be adversely affected. It has become fashionable for lawyers, presumably knowledgable in the legal systems, to believe, and convince voters to believe, that only a lawyer is really capable of being an elected politician. So, character and common sense are trumped by law degrees.

If lawyers in the judicial systems were actually salaried employees of government, then perhaps incentives to game the system for profit would disappear. A lawyer would be told, “you prosecute this case” and “defend that one.” I realized this idea stands counter to my firm belief in the free-enterprise system but, corruption and injustice calls for sterner measures. I also realize a salaried lawyer, without fear of losing his/her position, can also become a lazy lawyer allowing injustice to prevail often without accountability. The whole system really needs some serious cleaning but, unhappily, there are enough folks involved in the system who are dishonest and corrupt as to consider changes to the system as unnecessary.

Overall, the government and Judicial systems are flawed and to believe that any corrections will come from within is naïve. This applies to the politicians who rely on Wall Street companies with huge lobbing firms working for more schemes to rip off the tax payers, not reduce them.

That’s probably why America is nearly $20 Trillion in debt. Corruption, in the hands of dishonest corrupted, immoral people, is devastating to our society and gives Obama and Hillary the very reason to continue their attack on our once great nation. When do we demand an accountability? The political sands are shifting. I think we’ll see it, but it could be awful.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em. (30 Jan 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

I frequently rail against the GOP “elites” for their betrayed of America. Nothing has occurred yet to cause me to alter my opinion. Too, I no longer blindly donate funds to the RNC. I do donate to the Georgia Republican party but the majority of my funding goes to the candidate(s) of my choice until such time as I determine they too have betrayed the base (and me).

Because the GOP has been brained washed into believing that if they don’t remain “moderate” and cooperate with democrats they will forever abide in perdition, struggling for recognition in a long and futile exercise rarely interrupted by electoral promotion. 2012 and 2014 put the lie to that assessment, yet under the leadership of weaklings like Mitch McConnell (and formerly, John Boehner), the GOP still recoils in fear of offending, being accused of racism, islamiphobia and recklessly shutting down the government. Oh, the humanity!

Obama’s continued presence as President remains as much an abomination on the body politic as it is a puzzle to the GOP’s base. The Tea parties formed up because of the GOP’s inaction in the face of evil with the dashed hopes that loud admonitions from outraged voters would encourage a change in the “elites” habits. No such luck. The base was ignore indeed, chastised as fools, hicks and knaves and otherwise ignored, all the time allowing the creature in the White House free reign to do his promised damage to America.

No one stood up to Obama except Ted Cruz who decided enough was enough and threw his hat in the ring as a Presidential candidate promising the complete reversal of Obama’s destructive schemes. And, he called McConnell a liar, which claim has not been refuted nor disproved. The Elite GOP establishment, realizing the potential danger, recoiled in horror when Cruz held a mirror up for them to see themselves and, prove by his actions, that he listened to the base, heard they entities and was ready to make those necessary changes. Even living in perdition, a comfortable existence can be had so long as one is warm, dry and the dinner bowl is kept full, But, with Cruz they are in dire danger of losing all that. Losing candidates can go back to their imaginations, but the campaigners must continue to campaign, or they die.

Then, enters Donald Trump. He too had had enough and, not beholding to any monied group, Trump, telling it like it is, speaks in tones that the base understands and has become the anti-Obama hero. Now we will have, if not an actual blood letting, a contest for the leadership that will forever change the way election campaigns are conducted. No longer will the elites or the media, including Fox News, presume to select our conservative presidential candidate for us.

Trump does not need Fox News. They need him. Look at the panic in the Fox ranks after Trump said he wouldn’t participate in Thursdays debate. He doesn’t need to. Immediately, I suspect the advertisement fees for the debate will plummet; not good for business. Trump does not need to debate Cruz, mano y mano. Read Trumps book, The Art of the Deal and all becomes clear.

We now have a three way fight! Trump vs Cruz vs the GOP ‘elites.’ The ‘elites’ are without principles. They have no honor; they have no integrity. It’s easy to fight weaklings when they lack the necessary scruples that should keep them the conservative foil to the marxist led Democrat Party, but they can’t. That day is gone. Trump and Cruz have given voice to the GOP base here in “Ignored-land.” I suspect Trump and Cruz can make up but not with McConnell, (et. al) and the rest of the career types that see their sinecures in peril.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (28 Jan 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

What Kerry said, precisely, was: “Some sanctions relief money for Iran will go to terrorism,” (CNN, January 21, 2016). Who the hell’s side is he on any way? Does one suspect this represents the total knavery of the Democrat party or Obama’s treachery alone?

We are only now learning why, during the Vietnam war, we lost so many aircraft. It was  because LBJ, through Sec. State Dean Rusk, were telling the North Vietnamese of targets to be hit, when and where so as not to kill civilians. WTF? They did this through the Swiss Embassy.

In light of what John (the Vietnam vet) Kerry said about the billions of dollars just released back into Iran’s coffers going to Iran’s terrorist supported organizations, is it not reasonable for American’s to become so outraged they demand the arrest of this idiot, charge him with treason, try him and publicly hang him with appropriate ceremony in a celebration of relief after its over. America needs to be cleansed.

Kerry also said: “the world is safer today” because of the Iran nuclear deal. You can still hear the laughter. In fact, we are now more threatened than ever by Iran’s new found swagger, it’s out and out direct threats to America and it close kinship with our Secretary of State.

Kerry’s miserable skills at negotiation, when added to H. Clinton’s previously miserable skills at negotiations, both following Obama’s miserable skills at anything good, have brought American to the very brink of world disaster.

John Kerry first brought up the possibility of bypassing new congressional regulations by granting Iranian business-related citizens, visa exceptions after the Iranian regime warned that the new law would violate the nuclear agreement reached last July. Didn’t Congress pass a law in December that requires visas for visitors to the US who are dual citizens of, or who have visited Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Sudan since 2011? They did, but guess what, The bill, signed by Obama, grants the Secretary of Homeland Security the power to waive the visa requirement on the basis of US national security interests. Subsequently, State Dept. Deputy Spokesperson Mark Toner acknowledged that the exception for Iran is not based on US national security interests, but on the desire not to impede business or offend Iran (sic).

You want something to be really mad about: House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-Texas) and Rep. Candice Miller (R-Mich.) accused Obama of “blatantly breaking the law, a law Obama himself signed… “He cannot rewrite the law to appease foreign governments.” Well, apparently he can because he’s doing it.

Where is a united GOP on this issue? Where is any GOP official on this issue?  Why aren’t articles of impeachment being drawn up? What the hell’s going on? One Republican Representative, Mike Pompeo, of Kansas, said that the changes “prioritize the business interests of Iran – the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism – over the safety of the American people.” When are we going to stop this crap? The Republicans won’t do it.

Obama believes he’s going to leave a legacy that others can build on. He will, but it will not be a good one. I think what he wants is an America in a smoking ruin and can depend on the former first lady to do it. In any event, if she becomes President, expect him to be at her elbow making sure she doesn’t screw it up. Too, in light of the many unexplained deaths in the Clinton’s background, it can not be ignored that Obama could suddenly suffer an unexplained  fall. These people are so corrupt, and I include the GOP leadership, that any and all depredate measures needed to stay in power will be used. Remember, freedom is then goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (25 Jan 2016)
