Alabama vs Washington: CFB Playoff Semifinal

Saturday’s Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl promises to be epic.  Huskies fans have taunted “We want Bama” and they’re about to get their wish.

These two schools have met exactly four times in their history:  New Years Day in the 1926 Rose Bowl, in 1975 U-Dub came to Tuscaloosa, three years later the Tide traveled to Seattle and their last meeting was on Christmas Day 1986 in the Sun Bowl.  Each meeting resulted in a glorious victory for the Crimson Tide.

That was then.  This is now.

Alabama faithful know only too well the nation sees Alabama as villains.  The Tide is the defending National Champion with the nation’s longest winning streak.  Washington has had a miraculous one-loss season but they are a 14-point underdog.  The last time the Huskies were National Champions was 25 years ago.

Alabama enters the Playoffs undefeated and looking to keep that record intact to become the first repeat Playoff era champion.  Legendary coach Paul “Bear” Bryant won six national championships.  Nick Saban has won five.  Winning against Washington moves Saban closer to tying “The Bear”.

I believe with all my heart my beloved Crimson Tide will defeat the Huskies.  It’s their destiny.  The players want the win for school pride and they want it for Coach Saban.

So...get your hate on.  The Huskies will leave the Georgia Dome like yelping pups with their tails tucked between their legs having faced college football’s most powerful dynasty.

ROLL TIDE!

Proud Obama's Legacy

The Russian Reset Reset Is Lit

President “Precious” declared 35 Russian intelligence operatives “persona non grata” yesterday as part of sanctions he ordered after accusing them of hacking the presidential election on orders from Vladimir Putin.  He also closed compounds in New York and Maryland while imposing economic sanctions on Putin’s FSB (Federal Security Service formerly known as the KGB) and GRU (Glavnoye Razvedyvatel'noye Upravleniye) spy agencies adding them to the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons.
Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov fired back at Ol’ Jug Ears’ decision to kick the diplomats out of the US by banishing 35 diplomats of their own.

According to The Daily Mail, Lavrov’s spokeswoman Maria Zakharova claimed the US and American people were “humiliated by their own President” in the Cold War-style measures against Moscow, intended as punishment for hacking the US election.

“The people who occupied the White House for eight years—this is not the Administration. They are the group of foreign policy losers, angry and shallow-brained. Today Obama has officially confessed to it,” said Zakharova.

Ms Zakharova claimed US citizens were let down by the White House, and added: “Not by international terrorists, not by troops of the enemy. This time Washington got a slap in the face from its own master and it increased the urgent agenda of the incoming Donald Trump team to its maximum level. Moscow hopes that Trump's arrival next month in the White House will gradually lead to a reset of relations between the two countries.”

“That's all, the curtain falls. The bad performance is over.”

“The whole world, from the stalls to the upper balcony, is watching the smashing blow on American prestige and its leadership made by Barack Obama and his illiterate foreign policy team that disclosed its top secret to the worldtheir exceptional nature was a mask for their helplessness. No single enemy could do more harm to the USA.”
UPDATE 9:04 AM:  The Associated Press is now reporting that Russia’s president Vladimir Putin will not be expelling US diplomats in response to a new round of US sanctions.

Kerry's Laps(e)


John Kerry is well known for his lapses in judgement: leaving Viet Nam after three questionable Purple Hearts, slandering the troops before Congress, throwing his medals over the White House fence, serially marrying for money and combating terror in France with a performance by James Taylor.

Now, don't get me wrong! I like Sweet Baby James as much as the next guy, but as an effective response to terror, he may as well have picked Katy Perry! After an hour plus of lying through his teeth about Obama's back stabbing UN deal with Israel, I noticed a peculiar habit of John's, that of sticking his tongue out to punctuate his sentences.

The above photos, not Photoshopped, were taken during about a two minute clip of Teresa and Obama's lap dog speaking. Let's just say that if Kerry worked for me, there'd be a rolled up newspaper in his future.

"Bad dog! No biscuit!"

Kerry Got The Final Jeopardy Answer Wrong

Seth Lipsky noted in his most recent piece at The New York Post,In one of the most condescending speeches ever given at the State Department (no mean feat), Kerry spoke as if he knows better than Israel, the Mideast’s only democracy, what is best for Israel. Affecting friendship, he helped only its enemies.”

Howie Carr, a conservative radio talk show host based in Boston wasn’t kind either when he said, “What a pathetic piece of work this Kerry is. Always has been. But what’s the mid or long-term upside to rolling over for these bloodthirsty Third World savages? Remember, this is a guy who said he could, uh, sort of understand why the Muslim butchers of the Charlie Hebdo magazine staff in Paris had decided to go Gestapo.”

“Daniel Patrick Moynihan used to call throwing in with the vermin at the United Nations ‘joining the jackals.’ As this preening fool, a narcissist’s narcissist, a laughingstock stares at himself in the mirror this morning, he’s thinking…if I can’t get the Nobel, maybe I can at least score a Profiles in Courage award.  After all, my initials are JFK. Will James Taylor croon as Caroline hands me the plaque?”

“When it comes to Kerry, the only thing we have to be thankful for is that he never became president.”

Who’s Up For A Caption Contest?

John Kerry, lame duck Secretary of State, has moved up the date of his intended speech on a Palestinian State to 11:00 AM this morning; a move no doubt intended to thwart efforts by the incoming Trump administration to act on Israel’s behalf while at the same time pushing back against Netanyahu.

For the last eight years, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Samantha Power, Ben Rhodes, and Susan Rice have sought to rewrite the traditional approach to foreign policy.

When the Obama administration discovered that tragic human nature still governed foreign policy, it objected petulantly, insisting that an American messiah had come to save the world. The world, for some strange reason, was not impressed. Instead, it took advantage of the light-bringer’s childish narcissism.

We’re asking our readers to come up with a pithy caption to this photoshopped image of Barack as the hapless Deputy Barney Fife, snooty Francophile “Lurch” Le Kerry and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

There will be three winners: first, second and third place.  Let’s make the effort to come up with an imaginative caption worth your while.  Second and third place will receive a $10 Amazon gift card.  First Place will receive a $25 gift card from Amazon and a spot on our sidebar as the Blog of the Week.

Contest ends at midnight Saturday, December 31st.  The winners will be announced on Sunday, New Years Day. Good luck!
UPDATE 1-1-2017:  Our caption contest ended on New Year’s Eve and we are proud to announce the winners:

Pistol Pete is our First Place Winner—he will receive a $25 Amazon Gift Card
Proof is our Second Place Winner—he will receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card
Woodsterman is our Third Place Winner—he will receive a $10 Amazon Gift Card

When They're Really Better at Pandering...

UN Jackals And Their Atrocious Betrayal of Israel

The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer has made two trips to Israel.  The first was July 24, 2008 as a presidential candidate to Jerusalem’s Western Wall, Judaism’s most holy site, and again as president in March 2013.


Jerusalem is the ancient capital of Israel and site of the original temple.  The Western Wall is where the Ten Commandments were stored in the Ark of the Covenant.  The Western Wall is also known as the Wailing Wall by Jews who make pilgrimages there to grieve the persecution of the Jewish people.

It was at the Western Wall that Obama left a note that read, “LordProtect my family and me.  Forgive me my sins, and help me guard against pride and despair.  Give me the wisdom to do what is right and just.  And make me an instrument of your will.”  He vowed to forge an “unshakable bond” with Israel if he became the next president.


When he traveled to Israel again in 2013, his itinerary included a trip to Yad Vashem a living memorial to the Holocaust and to those who were “righteous among the nations”.  The “righteous” were those who summoned extraordinary courage to save the Jews from extermination by the Nazis.

“This is my second visit to this living memorial.  Since then, I’ve walked among the barbed wire and guard towers of Buchenwald.  Rabbi Lau told me of his time there, and we reminisced about our good friend, Elie Wiesel, and the memories that he shared with me.  I have stood in the old Warsaw ghetto, with survivors who would not go quietly. But nothing equals the wrenching power of this sacred place, where the totality of the Shoah is told.  We could come here a thousand times, and each time our hearts would break.”
“For here we see the depravity to which man can sink; the barbarism that unfolds when we begin to see our fellow human beings as somehow less than us, less worthy of dignity and of life.  We see how evil can, for a moment in time, triumph when good people do nothing, and how silence abetted a crime unique in human history.”
“Here we see their faces and we hear their voices.  We look upon the objects of their livesthe art that they created, the prayer books that they carried.  We see that even as they had hate etched into their arms, they were not numbers.  They were men and women and childrenso many childrensent to their deaths because of who they were, how they prayed, or who they loved.”
“And yet, here, alongside man’s capacity for evil, we also are reminded of man’s capacity for goodthe rescuers, the Righteous Among the Nations who refused to be bystanders.  And in their noble acts of courage, we see how this place, this accounting of horror, is, in the end, a source of hope.”
His soaring rhetoric and honeyed words betray his deep Palestinian ties.  To this day, The Los Angeles Times refuses to release the Rashid Khalidi tape they acquired surreptitiously which lays bare Mr. Obama’s disdain of Israel and his effusive support of Middle East radicals.  He is a political chameleon.

On December 23, 2016, Obama broke with the longstanding practice of both Democratic and Republican administrations to protect Israel from one-sided UN resolutions. He let the United Nations Security Council pass a resolution declaring the establishment of settlements by Israel “a flagrant violation under international law."

The resolution demands that "Israel immediately and completely cease all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem." The Obama administration abstained rather than veto this resolution as it had done with regard to a similar resolution back in 2011.

It declares that any Jew who lives in the Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem which has been inhabited for a thousand years is illegal and in violation of international law. It is now the official position of the United States of America that the Western Wall and the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem belongs to the Palestinians.

The Council passed the resolution, 14-0.  The countries voting for the resolution were Great Britain, France, Russia, China, Japan, Ukraine, Angola, Egypt, Uruguay, Spain, Senegal, New Zealand, Malaysia and, of course, the US by abstention.

Israel has accused Obama of colluding with the Palestinians against the Jewish state. The remaining question is whether Jewish leaders and Democratic politicians who vouched for Obama and defended him for eight years will now tell the truth.

The American taxpayer foots 22% of the total United Nations budget.  What we get for our three billion dollars a year is a corrupt organization whose dysfunctional and hostile agencies are united in opposing America around the world.

I wholeheartedly agree with Daniel Greenfield’s take on the UN:
“These days, the United Nations is a forum for Islamist powers and the rotting remains of the Communist front to continue its war against the free world while seducing weak-minded nations into going along.” 
“We are not making the world a better place by being members of this anti-American organization which vacillates between being evil and useless.”

Not A Creature Was Stirring, Not Even A Mouse

“There’s nothing sadder in this world than to awake Christmas morning and not be a child.” — Erma Bombeck
Some of my most cherished memories of Christmases Past are of lying in bed too excited to sleep—listening for the sound of tiny hooves on the rooftop or that Jolly Old Elf bounding down the chimney with gifts.

Even the visit to sit on Santa’s lap when I noticed a shiny piece of scotch tape stretched across his white mustache didn’t discourage my belief in the magic and wonder of Christmas.  I never ascribed to the belief that Santa wasn’t real.  To this day I carry his magic in my heart.

I still leave cookies and a glass of milk out to warmly welcome him into my home as well as carrots for his reindeer.  It’s a chance to recreate a nostalgic visit back to my wonderful childhood Christmases.

He appears when we look for him.

The world will never be as perfect for us grown-ups as it is in the eyes of children on Christmas morning.

I know that Christmas is the time we celebrate the gift of the Christchild.  His birth is more than a symbol of a holiday.  He is our joy and our salvation. 

I wish you all the joy and happiness this season can bring.  Let us remember in our thoughts and prayers all the military service men and women deployed on foreign soil that are protecting our freedom and cannot be with their loved ones this Christmas and keep in our hearts all the families that are no longer whole because they have lost a loved one.

UPDATE:  Welcome readers of The Pirate’s Cove.  We thank the Admiral for linking to this post.  Merry Christmas everyone!

Tweetin’ With The Prez

Å°ber-liberal factions in America continue apace with their pathetic Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Michael Moore tweeted Tuesday: “Trump is not president until 12 noon on Jan. 20th. So we’ll continue to fight hope to find a legal, nonviolent way to stop this madness.” New York Times columnist Paul Krugman similarly tweeted: “We should never accept this as OK. It may be the new normal, but that’s a new normal in which the America we knew and loved is gone.” Then there’s Keith Olbermann, who is advising his viewers not to refer to the incoming commander-in-chief as “President Trump.”

“Our betters” express their undisguised contempt for tens of millions of Americans who voted for Trump with heightened snobbery and condescension.  They bury themselves in the most absurd way imaginable screaming impotently into the void.

The President-elect has 17.8 million followers on Twitter as a counter-weight to media bias—a direct line of communication with his supporters—a way to shape his agenda.  He recently told CBS’s Lesley Stahl in a 60 Minutes interview, “I’m not saying I love it, but it does get the word out…I have a method of fighting back.”  He went on to say he’d be “restrained” in what he tweets as president.

The left is aghast.  Julie Davis of The New York Times feels Trump’s use of Twitter is an “unprecedented  experiment” that has “opened a window” on the presidency unlike any before.  “His habit of making unguarded and unvetted statements direct to the public has fascinating implications.  It will affect how the world reads official proclamations from the White House.  I’m mystified at the notion that we should somehow ignore what are, by most accounts, completely unrehearsed, un-poll-tested utterances from the mouth of the person who’s about to become president of the United States.”

To be honest President-elect Trump, through the use of 140 characters, has issued some cringe-worthy tweets.  The left is counting on more of them in the future to use as a cudgel to denounce and demean Trump.

Enter Seth Meyers; former SNL cast member and host of NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers who made no secret of his loathing of Donald Trump in a blistering 7-minute tirade that was long on invective and short of laughs.
“Basically, Donald Trump’s Twitter feed will serve as his version of FDR’s fireside chats. ‘The only thing we have to fear is fear itself—and Mexicans’. Trump is even encouraged by the head of the GOP to bypass traditional media leading him to spread lies and conspiracy theories unfiltered through his Twitter account,” Meyers said. 
The novelty of liberals indulging in unguarded moments of anxiety over Trump’s tweets is becoming mind-numbingly tedious. 

Sean Spicer Named as Trump's Press Secretary

...and it always takes me a second before I realize they didn't say "Shawn Spencer"!

I Never Cast A Vote I Was Prouder Of

Former President Slick Willy traveled to Albany as an elector from Westchester County, New York to vote for Granny in the Electoral College.  Governor Andrew Cuomo noted in an interview following the vote, “It couldn’t be easy for him to go through this proceeding to see the Electoral College elect his wife but to know there’s a different outcome for the nation.”

After the vote the “big dog” called the moment bittersweet adding, “I’ve never cast a vote I was prouder of.”

Not since Quasimodo wandered the streets of Paris have people uttered the words, “Poor man.”

On the surface his vote appeared touching but nobody believes their marriage is anything other than one gigantic charade deserving of these mocktastic tweets:

Fractured Fairy Tales: The Ghost Of Elections Past

Our tale begins on a bleak winter night in a little town in New York State.  As we look inside the closely guarded residence, we find our protagonist slouching on a sofa watching an episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reeking of boiled cabbage, urine and farts. Friends and associates often encouraged her to take a shower once in a while, but always to no avail.

On this very night our subject was visited by Alinsky’s ghost who is forever cursed to wander the earth dragging a network of heavy chains forged from a lifetime of radical activism, Marxism and a penchant for the politics of personal destruction.

The war on Christmas had miraculously been declared over and for reasons known only to him he appears before his acolyte to give her the opportunity for redemption and a chance to escape his fate.

The apparition’s appearance was startling at first transforming into skepticism.  Alinksy moans and groans with impatience.  He explains that the chains he labors to carry were forged by him in life and her chains were more ponderous because of her greed and lies and selfishness.

Alinsky arranges for three spirits to visit her:  the ghosts of elections past, present and future.

At the stroke of midnight the Ghost of Elections Past recounted her failure to break some fictitious glass ceiling, her 19 political scandals and standing by her man when he was impeached. 

At the stroke of one there appeared another visitor, the Ghost of Elections Present.  This spirit took poor Hillary by the hand pointing to the depth of her weaknesses as a candidate, her lying and corruption. He mocked her declaring, “You lost yet again.  This is getting embarrassing.”

Poor Hillary was devastated to hear how unfit to be president she really was, but the torment did not end there for at the stroke of two there appeared a horrifying ghost, the Ghost of Elections Future.

Draped in black from head to toe, the ghost foretold of a life without campaigns, campaign donations and hangers-on from Hollywood to the Hamptons.  Hillary began sobbing violently.

Hillary awoke the next morning changed by the visitations during the night.  She decided to write a book for Dummies and titled it How To Lose Bigly to Trump and promised to go off into the sunset never again to call those who did not support her as a basket of deplorables.  The newly reborn Hillary would shed her grumpy “Bah Trumps” and never seek public office again.

And the people were filled with extraordinary optimism.  God bless us, every one!

The End?

Nothing Is Over Until We Decide It Is!

John Conyers (D-MI), the 26-term congressman representing Congressional District 13 (metropolitan Detroit), penned an editorial in USA Today calling for an amendment to the Constitution which would do away with the Electoral College.
“…some Electoral College defenders argue that direct elections for president could lead to messy nationwide vote recounts. Our experience in Florida in 2000, and Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin this year, have taught us that statewide recounts under differing and confusing rules bring neither clarity nor finality to our electoral process. By contrast, a national popular vote is historically far more likely to establish a clear winner, avoiding the necessity of recounts altogether.
When Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein requested recounts in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, Conyers’ district saw 238 precincts tabulated more Election Day votes than people who were counted as checking in to vote.  The affected precincts represent 37% of the city’s 662 precincts.  The discrepancy became national news.
Article 2 of the US Constitution sets up the Electoral College. It assigns votes to states by the size of their congressional delegation: Each state gets two electors—just as they get two senators—in addition to those apportioned by population. The result weights the outcome in such a way that electoral votes cast by the most populous states are worth a fraction of those cast by smallest states:  One Wyoming electoral college vote represents 143,000 people; the ratio is 1:500,000 for California.

California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Texas have the most electoral votes.  Sixteen states have between 3 and 5.  Traditionally blue states like Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, Virginia and Wisconsin have between 10 and 15 electoral votes.

That’s the difference between “spectator” states and “battleground” states.

Before he appeared on MSNBC’s All In with Chris Hayes on Friday night liberal film maker Michael Moore tweeted: 
The tweet linked to a Facebook post where the blob of lard, wrapped in blubber and slathered in grease expressed his conviction that enough so-called “faithless electors” would somehow deny Trump the White House.
“Get over it and pull yourself together. The tanks are 20 miles outside of Paris! Throw everything you got at this and do not relent. You’re in the friggin’ majority! Let’s act like it. Make your voice heard on social media and in front of your state capitol. An authoritarian regime is about to take hold in DC, and they are going to run roughshod over you, me and all that is good. Get over your election depression and fight like you’ve never fought before. Non-violently. With conviction. There are more of us than there are of them. Only 23% of all registered adult American voters showed up and voted for Trump. Come on! It’s not over til it’s over.”
Talk about mentally challenged.  That line about “tanks are 20 miles outside of Paris” doesn’t help his point.  It’s tantamount to willful ignorance. The last time tanks were 20 miles outside of Paris was on Bastille Day with its traditional military parade along the Champs-Elysées on July 14, 2016.

On Monday, December 19th the Electoral College finally put the 2016 election out of its misery—ironically exactly 18 years to the day after Hillary’s husband was impeached

Obama’s Last Chance To Lie To Our Faces In 2016

The final press conference of 2016 for The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer was laced with his usual honeyed words and condescension.  It reminded me of Cheech & Chong; those zany 1970s stoners of “Up In Smoke” fame.

Choomers are notorious for uttering sentences they believe to be profound.  This president is no exception. He kicked things off with a long list of all the amazing things he has done for this country—and the world.
A considerable amount of time was spent discussing the gremlins in the Kremlin. “What we have simply said are the facts,” he said. “Based on uniform intelligence assessments, the Russians were responsible for hacking the DNC, and as a consequence, it is important for us to review all elements of that and make sure we are preventing that kind of interference through cyber attacks in the future.”
“In fact,” he said, “we did not see further tampering of the election process, but the leaks through Wikileaks had already occurred.”  That Obama is one fierce president.  Imagine anyone else saying “Cut that out!” and having it work so effectively.
He once again failed to acknowledge the many ISIS-inspired attacks on his watch which occurred on American soil.  The truth continues to be a casualty of this administration.  It is the sacrificial lamb slaughtered in furtherance of his image.

Dog Whistle Propaganda

The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer said America wasn’t over slavery, Jim Crow and Colonialism in an interview with Trevor Noah on Comedy Central Monday in New York.

Appearing on The Daily Show, he was asked about how he speaks to crowds about race.

"You know, my general theory is that, if I was clear in my own mind about who I was, comfortable in my own skin, and had clarity about the way in which race continues to be this powerful factor in so many elements of our lives.  But that it is not the only factor in so many aspects of our lives, that we have, by no means overcome the legacies of slavery and Jim Crow and colonialism and racism, but that the progress we've made has been real and extraordinary, if I'm communicating my genuine belief that those who are not subject to racism can sometimes have blind spots or lack of appreciation of what it feels to be on the receiving end of that, but that doesn't mean that they're not open to learning and caring about equality and justice and that I can win them over because there is goodness in the majority of people."

Duane Townsend of The Hill insists “flyover country” elected Donald Trump because he “pandered to their bigotry and anger at Washington, DC.”

Townsend’s diatribe purports the silent majority has been “exceedingly adept at dominating the narrative in virtually every election cycle.  They’re proficient at dog whistle propaganda” and disseminating tragic half-truths and fake news.  This unabashed fabulist went a step too far describing Middle America Christian values as “cultural fascism.”

A call to arms has been sounded.  If you are convinced Obama will go quietly on January 20th, please know he and his legion of minions have other plans for America.

Obama is equipped to build bases of power outside traditional institutions. And that is exactly what he is doing.

Organizing for Action (OFA) is Obama’s equivalent of the Clinton Foundation. The Clintons built Clintonworld around staffers and harvesting money. Obama Inc. is being built around organizing and activism. Like Clintonworld, it will be a network encompassing a variety of political and non-profit institutions. Unlike them, it will be much less focused on directing money to its bosses in preparation for an election. Instead it will function like a traditional leftist movement, merging influence operations with crowd-sourced mobilization. 

Daniel Greenfield warns, “OFA will be far more dangerous in the wild than the Clinton Foundation ever was. The Clintons hoped to ride back to power on a giant wave of money. Obama is taking a much more radical course.”

While The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer wraps up business at the White House switching between praising Trump and offering him patronizing advice, the left’s messiah is preparing to deploy a network that will dominate the Democrats and set the agenda on the left.  The aftershocks of Trump’s victory in November sent the party reeling back into his arms.  Democrats face their worst crisis since the 1920s.  Who will be his heir?  Biden appears to have decided he will not seek the presidency and two-time loser Hillary is done.  Stick a fork in her.  The bench is thin.  Sen. Cory Booker (NJ), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (NY), Kamala Harris (CA), Gov. John Hickenlooper (CO), Sen Amy Klobuchar (MN) or soon-to-be First Lady Michelle Obama.

Greenfield warns, “Obama believes that he can rule America from outside the White House. And he might be right.”

So, Mr. Townsend, that dog whistle you fear is real—but not for the reason you stated.  Andrew Breitbart, before he died in 2012 said, “I bought a dog whistle.  I bought a dog whistle factory and I’m giving you dog whistles.  And we’re going to listen to every word that comes out of your mouth, and we’re going to hold you to the same standard that you hold us which is an impossible one and you’re going to have a hell of a time in 2012 because America’s finally woken to your Saul Alinksy bullshit tactics and we’re coming to get you.”
