One Of These Is Not Like The Other

The Washington Post went out of its way on Friday to portray presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump as “awkward and tone-deaf” in response to Britain’s populace voting in the EU Referendum, known as BREXIT, to leave the European Union.

You may well remember when Mitt Romney spoke out against Trump back in March thoroughly trashing the then-candidate for president.  So, it should come as no surprise that Kevin Madden, a veteran GOP operative who advised Romney during his utterly failed bid for the presidency in 2012 chimed in, “This is an opportunity to showcase yourself as a world leader and as a potential commander-in-chief.  So when the images being seen back home are at a golf course, that’s a missed opportunity.”

Chief Policy Adviser for the Sack Of Russet Potatoes With Earrings, Jake Sullivan, called Trump’s Scottish news conference a “spectacle” that should worry voters.  Sullivan added Trump “put his golf course interests ahead of US interests and failed to understand that American households could be hurt by the BREXIT vote.  Donald Trump has consistently shown disregard for our friends and allies across the world and talked about a weaker, less confident America.  Donald Trump proves again he is temperamentally unfit for the job.”

Oh really?

The decision by The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer to follow the moment of national grief over James Foley’s beheading by retreating to the golf course 7 minutes after his statement, allowing himself to be photographed laughing and having a good time with his cronies, rubbed even partisan Democrats the wrong way.

The outrage expressed by so many is patently absurd and infuriating to me.

By my count, this first round of golf abroad is Pres Obama's 286th round in office.

Pres Obama has arrived at Woodmont Country Club in Rockville, MD for a round of golf. 84° and sunny. 4th time playing there.

If Obama resigns from office NOW, thereby doing a great service to the country—I will give him free lifetime golf at any one of my courses!

WaPo writers Jenna Johnson and Jose A. DelReal must have despised having to report the presence at Turnberry of Mike Ross who was wearing a Trump t-shirt with the message, “Donald Trump Making Ayrshire Great Again,” referring to the Scottish region where Trump opened his golf course and hotel.

“I like him.  I like the way he’s changing politics and the stuffy political correctness.  He’s breaking all of the protocols.  The leave vote was part of that.  People are fed up,” Ross said.

The Left Has Gone Utterly Apoplectic Over GOP Campaign Ad

The lefty websites are squealing in outrage over a campaign ad released yesterday by Republican senatorial candidate Allen Weh who is seeking to unseat New Mexico Democrat Tom Udall.  Political opponents are critical of the web-only ad implying it used a tragedy to promote his campaign.

Coverage of the ad by news outlets from the Washington Post to CNN quickly brought the New Mexico race to the national stage.

Weh is a retired Colonel in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve.  He began his service as an enlisted Marine before being selected for Officer Candidates School. He served two tours in Vietnam and with the British Royal Marines in Malaysia. Colonel Weh was recalled to active duty during the Persian Gulf War, for the U.S. expedition into Somalia, and to serve as Chief of Staff of Marine Forces Pacific prior to retiring in 1997.

Currently, Udall is leading Weh in the Senate race. The Real Clear Politics polling average shows Udall leading Weh 53 percent to 37 percent.  Perhaps that will change.

All the hub-bub is over a blistering attack by Weh’s campaign on the lack of leadership of both The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer and Udall.  An audio clip of Obama promising to be dedicated to his job is interspersed with images of violence abroad and our semi-retired president on vacation.  A cropped image of American journalist James Foley’s murderer is part of the montage.

OBAMA:  You, you give me this office and in turn my fears, doubts, insecurities, foibles, need for sleep, vacations, leisure is gone. 

UDALL:  I know as far as I feel, this diplomatic path that we're on right now is a good one.  

OBAMA:  I’m giving myself to you and the American people should have no patience for whatever is going through your head because you’ve got a job to do.  

UDALL:  I know as far as I feel, this diplomatic path that we're on right now is a good one. 

The ad concludes with these words flashed on the screen:  “To change Washington, you must change your Senator.”

Udall’s campaign was quick to criticize the ad saying, "James Foley’s death is a tragedy, and to use his killer’s horrific image for personal gain in a campaign ad is reprehensible and appalling." 

Udall's campaign manager, Daniel Sena, said in a statement, "If Allen Weh wants to talk about the issues with New Mexico voters he should find a way to do it that is respectful and substantive. Using James Foley’s horrific and tragic death for shock value is offensive to Mr. Foley's family, New Mexico voters and the rest of our country."

“Out of respect for the Foley family, no picture of James Foley was used,” Weh’s campaign manager, Diego Espinoza, said in an email to Politico’s Morning Score. “Tom Udall’s feigned outrage over the inclusion of a now familiar image of this Jihadi terrorist, who is clearly the face of the evil that threatens our nation. Senator Udall’s comments about our diplomacy being ‘good’ reflect his naiveté and inexperience in matters of national security.”

In a telephone interview with Albuquerque's KRQE News 13, Weh said he stood by the ad.  “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. In fact, I think it serves the greater good.  You’ll note that no picture of Mr. Foley was ever in that film. None, ever.”

Late Monday night, Foley’s brother Michael, gave KRQE a statement saying his family had “no reaction” to Weh’s ad.  “His decision [to use the image] doesn’t affect the family.”

The reason Foley’s brother reacted in that fashion is because he is angry and believes the United States let his murdered brother down.  He alluded to the much trumpeted 'flawless' July 4 rescue mission for the captive reporter which failed when it raided the wrong base.

If you would like to contribute to Weh’s campaign to help restore leadership go here.

The fight against terrorism is ugly. You can't be squeamish when the security of #America is on the line. http://t.co/pHhELclFdy

A Reflection Of His Depth Of Grief Over James Foley’s Beheading

The decision by The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer to follow the moment of national grief over James Foley’s beheading by retreating to the golf course 7 minutes after his statement, allowing himself to be photographed laughing and having a good time with his cronies, has rubbed even partisan Democrats the wrong way.

DELETE! DELETE! DELETE!

Last night was the big night when Cankles Clinton was supposed to “hug it out” with The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer following her well-publicized criticism of his “Don’t do stupid shit” foreign policy.

Little Chucky Todd, the new host of Meet The Press, summarized the meeting this way:

“After speculation about their foreign policy disagreements dominated the political news cycle this week, Obama and Hillary Clinton both did their best to project that they had a grand time paling around last night. At a soiree for Vernon Jordan’s wife, the Obamas “danced nearly every song” and “were happy to have the chance to spend time with Secretary Clinton and former President Clinton,” a spokesman said. The awkward personal dance between Obama and Clinton this week had already come across as strained. But the optics of the White House laying out the “surf and turf and pasta” menu at a tony Martha’s Vineyard party—at the same moment that news organizations livestreamed the violence in Ferguson—made it seem even sillier.”

Courtiers and White House Palace Guards Press poodles were not allowed into the private dinner celebration at the Farm Neck Golf Club, but White House spokesman Eric Schultz said afterward, “The Obamas danced nearly every song. A good time was had by all.”

A photo of TWMDCO partying the night away was posted to Instagram by fellow party-goer Elizabeth Cecil. The photo was quickly deleted this morning after it went viral creating a shitstorm of criticism.

Thanks to Elliott Schwartz of the RNC War Room, we all have access to the photo the regime tried to make disappear from the Intertoobs.

It takes little, if any, imagination to deduce that our semi-retired president doesn’t want the world to witness his ceaseless golf outings and his high-toned dance parties while Christians are slaughtered in indescribably cruel ways by savages, he swaps Bowe Bergdahl for five Taliban terrorists, detention centers along our southern borders remain filled with disease-riddled illegals, an American pastor is slowly dying in an Iranian prison, a Marine is unjustly held in a Mexican prison, a crescendo of revolution is building in Ferguson and his administration drags scandals behind it until they die of old age.

He doesn’t even pretend to care about any of this.  He’s shithouse rat crazy.

Poor Baby, Government Shutdown Will Strip The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer Down To A Skeleton Staff

Bloomberg is reporting that a government shutdown means that fewer people, about three-fourths of The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer’s 1,701-person staff, would be sent home.  That means fewer people to cook meals, do the laundry, clean the floors and change the light bulbs.

Of the 90 people who maintain the president’s family living quarters, only 15 would remain to provide minimum maintenance and support and Joey Plugs, who has a staff of 24, would have to eek by with 12.

There will be fewer economists tracking the economy and fewer budget officials to track spending.  Policy decisions on the environment and drug policy might get postponed.

No word yet if his golf caddies will be furloughed.  Meh.
