Twas the Night After Christmas, and It's All Hit the Fan

Some of us are just waking up from sleeping off our Christmas Eve hangovers and we’re noticing that our government has not been idle while we’ve been celebrating, and as usual, they’ve been up to no good.
Latest revelation from the Wall Street Journal is that the Obama Administration’s obsession with toppling the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria has been simmering a long time.  In fact, even recently, attempts have been made to exploit disgruntled leadership inside his government to form a coup.  This hasn’t worked out very well for the administration or its State Department, but that doesn’t make us feel much better about it.  It’s only a matter of time before Obama and his SecState, John Kerry, figure out how to start World War 3 in Syria, as they’ve almost managed to do all around the Middle East in recent times.  And since I’m still working on the holiday egg nog, I feel like putting my lament to verse.

Is Your Valley Girl, Marie Harf, Smarter Than A Fifth Grader?

Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader is a quiz show that features adult contestants and questions directly from the textbooks of first through fifth graders.

Word came yesterday that Acting State Department spokesimbecile Marie Harf is being promoted to Senior Advisor for Strategic Communications to Secretary of State John “Why-The-Long-Face” Kerry.  Initially, I thought the story emanated from the satirists at The Onion, but no, the story is befuddlingly true.  She will assist the equally cretinous propagandist Kerry in the Obama Administration’s catastrophic foreign policy between the U.S. and the hostile nation of Iran on…wait for it…nuclear weapons.

Ian Tuttle once opined that Marie Harf must be under the impression that the film Legally Blonde was a documentary.  I doubt anyone would disagree with that assessment.  Suffice to say Ms. Harf does not have a rich intellectual life.  She’s intellectually incurious and dumber than a box of rocks, but that’s being wickedly unfair to the rocks.  God help us all.

Curmudgeonly Cartoon: New York Times Cooks Hillary’s Goose; Time To Circle The Wagons

WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton exclusively used a personal email account to conduct government business as secretary of state, State Department officials said, and may have violated federal requirements that officials’ correspondence be retained as part of the agency’s record.
Mrs. Clinton did not have a government email address during her four-year tenure at the State Department. Her aides took no actions to have her personal emails preserved on department servers at the time, as required by the Federal Records Act.
