It makes me sick to my stomach when he quotes the Bible.

[squaredance]

Porch: my guess is somewhere between 60% to 80% of his supporters turn out for Hillary.

If it really gets bad, she will pick him for the VP slot.

The Bernie supporters are hard leftist or useful idiots.

I do not think that they are "waking up" at all. A few, but not the majority of them.

And remember they rejected Hillary because she was not a pure enough communist for them.

[squaredance]

as I said earlier, this is the whole point and "Action" means more rights down the tube, more federal control and more power and money to the NOmenlklatura.

That is all that it is about. they created the problem and will now exploit it, and you will not hear peep out of anyone else about opposing this. THis will be a "powerful speech", not a slap in the face of America.

It is all quite vile; it is all quite insane.

[Michael (fpa Patriot4Freedom)]

TV pics showed that George W and Laura were pointedly *not* clapping at the end of the speech by 'The Despicable Race Baiter-in-Chief.'

I expect that the refusal to clap will get plenty of airtime from the equally despicable MFM.

.

[Porchlight]

I agree, squaredance, that's why I said "some" of his supporters.

There are a bunch of them out there who are really really mad, though. We'll see if they get over it. Many who at least claim to be Bernvictims have joined the Trump fans on Reddit.

[Porchlight]

I expect that the refusal to clap will get plenty of airtime from the equally despicable MFM.

Good. Shouldn't clap after eulogies anyway.

"Nice to know the Cops didn't act stupidly. "

I believe that was said in the private meeting with law enforcement representatives this week but not reported by "Joseph Goebbels" Josh Earnst (born 1975).

The White House task force on 21st century policing made recommendations that some cities have adopted, but Mr. Obama has said more of them need to follow suit.

“By doing so, we don’t just ensure that the rights of all citizens are protected, we also make sure that law-enforcement officials who have a very dangerous job are also protected,” Mr. Earnest said. Police officers, he said, “can be more effective in fighting crime if they can work effectively with the community.”

[squaredance]

“can be more effective in fighting crime if they can work effectively with the community.”

Which means that the Fed are bypassing state governments and directly trying to govern cities.

And please strop telling us about the "rights" of protected classes.

The fact of the matter is that more blacks are committing crimes. They whole garbage about "discrimination" is just a lie.

After all these years, you would think that people would wake up, but the "black community" will not hold themselves responsible, This is why they are not a "community" at all but rather the clients of the democrat party.

[Frau ich verstehe die Welt nicht mehr]

Joe 'Gravitas' Biden, did spill the beans about how Pres. Blech felt about local law enforcement:

“And he (Pres. Blech) said, ‘But you also have to recognize that there is still institutional discrimination. That doesn’t just exist in policing. It exists in many other areas, hiring, housing, etc. And you’ — and so, then they started talking, and said, ‘Well, maybe we, the law enforcement organization, should reach out and say, look, we understand why you may be concerned about how we deal with you, but here’s — let’s have a conversation, tell us what it is specifically.”

[pagar, a bacon, ham and sausage supporter]

"“These protests might be messy” …. followed seconds later by … “police might get hurt”

You can't make this stuff up!

So glad I didn't watch that.

Comey said they could not find a prosecutor who would press charges.

How would he know unless he asked?

[Frau ich verstehe die Welt nicht mehr]

In other news today, LoLY refuses to discuss a single thing about the Hillary! Get-Out-of-Jail ticket. Can't make her. She apparently doesn't owe the public anything. Can't she be locked up in the basement unisex restroom?

Of course, the pesky Repuke politicians are keeping her from her important tour to promote Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS!!!!!!!)

BJ may be kept waiting on some tarmac.

[rse]

I did watch it and he wants to be able to lie and create grievance and then have us all share the pain created through manipulation as if this is all righteous and grounded in facts.

The hardest part about what he said 'we' should be doing is that these are the practices being forced on every classroom in the name of Positive School Climate and Restorative Justice. He talks about the separation of powers when he flounts it consistently. He wants to use institutions that enable him and destroy those that do not.

[squaredance]

If the GOPe had any b@lls they would impeach here. Just the Airport meeting is enough for that.

They are being made fools of in front of the nation and they either are oblivious to it, or do not care.

A shameful performance all round.

What is sad is that Lynch is a 4th rate sort of person If she was not black, she would not even get into a low level sate AG office.

Obama, Holder, Lynch, Clinton, Sanders...these are the people destroying America.

How weak and silly we have become.

[Buckeye]

They are being made fools of in front of the nation and they either are oblivious to it, or do not care.

More likely what you said to begin with, they don't have the stones.

Yoo-hoo, Mrs. Ginsburg!

Code of conduct for Unitd States judges:

Canon 5: A Judge Should Refrain from Political Activity

(A) General Prohibitions. A judge should not:

(1) act as a leader or hold any office in a political organization;

(2) make speeches for a political organization or candidate, or publicly endorse or oppose a candidate for public office; or

(3) solicit funds for, pay an assessment to, or make a contribution to a political organization or candidate, or attend or purchase a ticket for a dinner or other event sponsored by a political organization or candidate.

All supreme court justices are equal but some are more equal than others.

S&P 500 closes at an all time high.

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

Waiting to get my CD of my MRI they had the speech on. Couldn't hear all of Chief Brown's introduction but I was surprised at the standing ovation and wondered if it was for Brown's remarks or Obama? Can anyone venture their guess?

But anyway I am on my iPhone looking at emails and texts and I hear laughter. I thought the other guy in the room had changed the channel but it was Prez OkieDoke evidently making a funny at a memorial service. Now don't get me wrong, there is always a little levity or humor in remarks at funerals for those who have passed and are Fathers, brothers, Vets, etc. from family or friends whohin knew them.

But this is a memorial service for 5 police officers who were unceremonisously assassianated by a crazed and offended black man who didn't give a shit about OkieDokes sense of humor. Idiot.

Not only him but the asshole millenials who write his crap and adore the nothingburger of a leader we have. What a miserable 8 years we will have endured.

[rse]

Another deeply disturbing inappropriate thing bo said was to use personal anecdotes to highlight the loss of the men in baton rouge and st paul.

The story about alton sterling was something about how he always cooked enough food for everyone and how gentle castile was. Something about the gentle giant with dreadlocks.

Honestly the extent to which the media and the President cannot stop preceding 'protest' with the word 'peaceful' EVERY SINGLE TIME suggests to me that they really are not sure there wasn't more coordination than they want to admit to.

[Buckeye]

Jack

How is the knee progressing?

Sounds like you have been walking the dogs on the beach, but maybe I am reading more into your posts than I should?

At any rate, praying for a full recovery.

[daddy]

JeB! “You’re a Catholic blaming the pope?” interviewer and former Bush staffer Nicolle Wallace wondered.

“No, no, I’m not blaming,” Bush said with a laugh. “I mean, [I had] been talking about basically open borders at a time when the whole Trump phenomena was to build a wall and let, make Mexico pay for where he goes — literally goes to the border for a massive Mass.”

Bush added, “And he had every right to preach the gospel there. But I don’t think he should be intervening. I don’t know if he understood that he was intervening in our political affairs.”

So the Pope orchestrates a Mass on the Mexican/US Border for illegals, but the Pope's too stupid to understand that that will have any influence in US Political affairs?

[Captain Hate]

I guess the Paul Wellstone funeral set the baseline for commiecrat behavior at a memorial service.

[rse]

JIB-it was something about being glad he met michelle first because she just loves stevie wonder. What?

[Buckeye]

....and how gentle castile was

Gentle people always drive around with a loaded piece on their lap.

[Marlene]

I'm heartbroken that the families of the slain officers had to listen to his speech. They are probably still so grief stricken that hopefully what he said is all a blur.
We need to keep the families in our thoughts and prayers.

[Captain Hate]

Hopefully the families stayed away from the service knowing what to expect. Nobody should be surprised by this.

[buccaneer morgan]

Very pointed of you to note that daddy, of course I despise katie's bff with a thousand suns.

[daddy]

If the signs and slogans and chants at these "Peaceful" rallies calling for violence against cops are "Peaceful", then it obviously follows that Sarah Palin's Campaign usage of this symbol
was "Peaceful."

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

Buckeye,

I am walking unaided but a definite limp, not bad but a limp. I bike, workout every day and take PT once a week. I installed a full gym in our Southampton house. Bike, Rowing machine, heavy bag, table, weights and TRX system.

But its bone on bone and just want to get the leg and muscles stronger so when I do decide what to do in re replace or stem cell therapy, etc. I can cut down the rehab time.

Everyday, I take the beagles on a long drive along the beach and we usually stop at Dunes Beach where there is a long boardwalk up to the ocean. They like that and so do I since the walk hems them in and its easier on me to control them. They are beagles after-all.

Thanks for asking.

See, "gentle people" who have criminal records and who illegally have guns, and who have girlfriends who evidently lie for them.

Obama brings this up merely to create a sense of moral equivalency, and it is based on bald, open lies. And he is not called on it.

Oh, and it is not some "Millennial" who writes speeches like this; it is a team of professional, communist propagandists.

Thanks, Miss Marple. I assumed it was something along the line of open primaries - which aren't new - but that figure is outrageous. Still searching for the source and am also going back through the open/closed primary results to see what, if anything, they reveal.

Buckeye-Red is back from her CCW run and said that she was the only young female and only one other young person was there. She had gone with her dad. Said that after about 30 minutes a GQ prepster looking like he had just left the golf club and his fashionista wife with perfectly coiffed hair came in to BOTH get permits.

Home invasions are just not going to go well nor planned carjackings. Red made a comment about wanting to see what kind of pistol the fashionista favored.

[Beasts of England]

Miss Marple - Trump won fourteen of the sixteen closed primaries and collected at least four millions votes therefrom, which makes the claim of twelve million democrat votes an absolute lie.

Lies, damned lies, and NeverTrumpers.

[Miss Marple]

So, I dosed off watching the news and a stench woke me up.

Jack, the Scourge of Greenwood, had gone out and rolled in cat poop (feral cats) and then climbed up in my lap.

That will teach me to leave the patio door open for them to come in and out!

So, I had to give Jack a bath which he did not like, as he thought he smelled great!

Seems to have been apiece with the odor emanating from Washington.

[daddy]

Newt on the Speech some of us just watched.

Cute Blonde Host:...What did you make of the President's response?

Newt: Well I read his speech and I thought it was a good speech, because President Obama knows how to give good speeches. I thought it drifted off from the Police back to other problems that it might not have necessarily done, but I think it's very sad that Gallop came out this morning and said that we may be at the worst, the lowest state of our relationship between the races in 17 years. And I just think there's something really sad when you've had the first African American President, a very articulate person, a man who speaks back in Philadelphia in 2008, was historic and sweeping in his offer of a more unified America, and yet we've gotten the opposite. And I think because he's so Liberal, or because his allies are so Liberal, I think it's very hard for the President to deal with the real core underlying problem, and as a result, despite the good speeches, I think that he is not likely in the end to leave office having brought us together.

Host:...We continue to see protests in US cities across this country, and not only do we see these protests, we see these mounting threats to our Police. Do you have any ideas of how to combat this problem.

Newt: Sure. We should make it illegal to threaten the Police. I think somebody who says "Kill Cops" frankly should go to jail. I think we have to draw a very sharp line here. Advocating violence against the Police is advocating violence against the very fabric of our Society. The Police domestically, the Military overseas, are the key patterns that keep us safe and I think we have to be very tough with people who threaten our Policemen.

Host: We saw the testimony from AG Loretta Lynch today on Capitol Hill. The decision as we now know is in the hands of the DOJ, whether or not to pursue a perjury investigation against Hillary Clinton. What does it mean? What are the optics if the DOJ says no?

Newt: When you watch, from Bill Clinton visiting the Attorney General on her airplane, to Hillary Clinton saying she would probably reappoint her as Attorney General, to her over 74 times today, Catherine Herridge told me, over 74 times today Attorney General Lynch refused to answer a question. You look at all that. No wonder the American People think Washington's corrupt, and Washington's sick, and no wonder they think the fix is in. I think this is a very, very alarming situation. I don't see how you can have an Attorney General who refuses 74 times to answer questions in front of a Congressional Committee. I don't see how you can have an Attorney General who meets in private for 39 minutes with somebody who's under investigation, which Bill Clinton is. The whole thing just stinks.

Host: To be clear, she was asked about that Private meeting with the former President on that plane, and she said as she has stated before that it was merely a social conversation and the investigation was never discussed, but I can leave it up to you and those who can discuss it whether or not that even matters Mr Speaker.

Newt: Look, the very appearance of the Attorney General of the United States meeting with somebody who's under investigation just a few days, and think about the sequencing, his wife gets interrogated on a Saturday morning at her home for about 3 and a half hours, Sunday is a day off, Monday is a Federal Holiday, and by Tuesday the FBI has absorbed 3 and a half hours of testimony and Comey holds a hearing, holds a Press Conference, in which for 14 minutes he explains why she should be indicted and for 2 minutes he explains why he's not going to indict her. I mean the whole thing is just the sort of reason why the American People believe that the City of Washington is corrupt and the system has to be drastically changed.

Host: Well we heard from many colleagues of yours today that AG Lynch deflected and dodged...where does that leave us?

Newt: It leaves us with the majority of the American People, 57-58% believing that Hillary Clinton should be indicted. It leaves us with the majority of the American people believing the AG is not doing her job. The AG swore an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. The Attorney General is clearly failing to do her duty...

Today is the day when the President of the United States actually said, "It's easier for a teenager to get his hands on a Glock than a computer...or even a book!"

Words fail.

[Beasts of England]

I agree, Miss Marple. And as cynical as I am, I'm still surprised to see so many with that attitude on 'our side'. Bizzare.

[maryrose]

I am thankful that President Bush and Laura Bush were there today and on present a genuine heartfelt tribute to the slain police officers and their grieving families.
For Obama -just a photo op and propaganda stop.

[maryrose]

To present

[maryrose]

Trump is a moderate who used to be pro-choice

[DebinNC]

"It's easier for a teenager to get his hands on a Glock than a computer...or even a book!"

Only if "he" steals one or buys a stolen one. BOzo et al don't consider stealing a gun a serious crime worth more than a nominal time in jail though, especially for teens.

[maryrose]

He is also ahead in a Florida and Iowa poll

[Dave (in MA)]

I'd be happy to see Gingrich as VP, but I don't think he would help the ticket. Anyone his presence would bring on board I think is already planning on voting against Pantsuit.

[maryrose]

I agree Dave but he is an excellent defender of Trump!

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

jimmyk,

Wait until I tell Frederick that on September 1, he can now get a Glock because it is easier for hm than an XBox. That's his 13th birthday. He is now eligible in today's America to go out to Chicago and see if can shoot someone.

[daddy]

"It's easier for a teenager to get his hands on a Glock than a computer...or even a book!"

Did Obama say the during the speech?

Dave, I want somehow who can attack and punch back as well as Newt can, verbally and mentally. I don't know who that person is but I'm open to suggestions. So far I can think of Alan West. Who else? I don't want a gimmick candidate. Christie?

Miss M has tainted me toward Pence, and I heard Laura Ingraham dumping on Pence also. So I'm for Newt until I can imagine another alternative that fits the mental/verbal Pitt Bull I think we're going to need this Election.

I'll go for Howie Carr in a heartbeat:)

[DebinNC]

With HC likely to choose Corey Booker or a Castro Bro type, Ben Carson as Trump's VP makes a lot of sense imo.

[Miss Marple]

Daddy,

I would prefer Newt to Pence also, although I will pretty much go with whoever Trump chooses. He will have reasons I am not privy to.

The worst thing would be to devolve into a fight over the VP choice, so am avoiding getting emotionally involved. If I am trusting Trump to run the country, I see no reason not to trust him about the VP slot.

Maryrose's comment about Daniels maybe running again would be welcome news but have no idea if that is rumor or truth.

Daniels would beat Gregg hands down and keep the governor's seat in GOP hands, no doubt.

[Momto2]

Storms in our area last night led to loss of electricity for several hours and loss of cable/internet for 20 hours. Lots of catching up to do. Twitter says most officers didn't clap for O. as he lauded BLM.

And, is this being widely reported? (only 191 days left of this disgrace)

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jul/12/obama-admin-sent-taxpayer-money-oust-netanyahu/

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

You don't clap at an eulogy. But that is lost on the Obamaphiles who have not idea of cultural etiquette. What a telling scene. Education and rse is vindicated.

[Porchlight]

I don't know, DebinNC. Two non-politicians...I don't like token picks (from either party) and although sleepy doctor is a great guy, I don't think he has what it takes.

[DebinNC]

You don't clap at an eulogy

True of all the funerals I've attended, but maybe black funerals, like black church services, are more lively and participatory.

[DebinNC]

... On second thought, since the victims are all white iirc, then black officers clapping to show support for BOzo was just wrong.

[daddy]

I exactly transcribed this during Obama's speech today:

Obama: "When anyone, no matter how good their intentions may be, paints all Police as biased, or bigoted, we undermine those Officers we depend on for our safety."

Then I see in Lurker Susie's 04:51 link above the following:

Obama: "None of us are entirely innocent" when it comes to racial discrimination... “and this includes our police departments."

Was the 2nd quote from today's speech also?

Regardless, the second quote is Obama himself, specifically saying the stuff that he damns Americans for saying in the first quote.

The "Underminer" in Chief.

[DebinNC]

No way would Ben Carson be a token anything. He's a brilliant man of unquestionable character and achievement. A role model for many millions, brown-white-brown, familiar with his book "Gifted Hands" - required reading in many schools for 30 yrs.

[daddy]

Daniels would beat Gregg hands down and keep the governor's seat in GOP hands, no doubt.

Miss M,

How about former Mayor Greg Ballard. Is he, or any of his supporters making any noises? I can't stand that Lisa Murkowski is running ads up here touting her ability to get the Feds to Fund new IceBreakers.

[Art in Newport]

Deb, I like Ben Carson myself.

Trump doesn't need an attack dog.

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

Deb,

Black funerals? This was a memorial for 5 white police officers. The remarks were considered eulogies. Anyone clapping is an asshole. But then like opinions we all have one and some have more than others.

[Miss Marple]

Daddy,

Mayor Ballard has been out of sight. I think he would resurface as a GOP gubernatorial nominee if Daniels says no.

Other than that, he is pretty much in private life.

He was pretty upset at Pence over RFRA.

[Jack is Back! (As Mr. Fixit)]

daddy,

Ever considered running yourself? I know the biggest drag will be your library fine history but I think you can overcome that by noting that Murkowski has never taken a book out and read it. She is so out of touch in real America/Alaska she buys all her books from liberal billionaire Bezos and his Amazon network.

JamesD, narciso and I are prepared to write all you speeches and ads. Think about it.

[daddy]

JOMgal's,

Any of you ladies been fishing lately?

[Porchlight]

No way would Ben Carson be a token anything.

But you suggested he should be chosen in response to HRC choosing a VP of color. In that sense, yes, he would be token. I oppose a Martinez or a Haley pick for the same reason.

Again, great guy but no demonstrated achievement in government. We don't need a ticket with two of those guys.

[Free James D!]

JiB @ 6:22

Definitely! Count me in as part of Team Daddy!

[jimmyk]

Did Obama say the during the speech?

I didn't hear the speech, and can't find a transcript, but it's been widely quoted. Anyone can walk into a public library and get a book or sit down at a computer, and teenagers can do the same at their schools. Apparently Obama spoke for 45 minutes!

Jeb! Bush and the Pope hardest hit:(

Live from Shannon Bream's FOX Show.

Shannon: FOX's James Rosen is in Cleveland tonight with a look at the GOP Platform. Good evening, James.

James Rosen: Shannon, Good Evening. One of the most controversial elements of Donald Trump's Campaign thus far, his proposal to build a wall along the US/Mexico Border, was adopted by the Republican Party's Platform Committee without a single word of debate. The Committee's 112 members, 1 man and 1 woman from each of the 50 States and US Territories, will now summit their draft to the full Convention next week for a ratifying vote there...the draft calls for building a Wall along the entire of the Mexican Border, sufficient to stop all vehicular and pedestrian traffic...the Draft also calls for an mandatory prisons sentence of any deportee who illegally re-enters the US.

[jimmyk]

We don't need a ticket with two of those guys.

Agreed. Trump has the "outsider" vote already. Better to choose someone with some political experience if only to preempt the concern (however unwarranted) that he'll be clueless about how to govern. But he shouldn't pick someone who is too GOPe or establishment, as he might lose some of his appeal to people who want something different.

I agree - I was raised to never clap in church...even after the most rousing "special" by the choir or soloist.

BUT can you imagine how O. would handle it if the crowd didn't clap for him???? (I think there are built-in pauses for enthusiastic clapping on the teleprompter!) This would certainly hurt his itty bitty feelings...so protocol and civilized manners be damned!
