| Whoever coined the term ´to the victor goes the spoils´ did not have President Barack Obama´s official inauguration party in mind. They knocked on doors for him and helped him win re-election, but when Obama supporters put on their tuxedos and ball gowns to celebrate the start of his second term in office, they feasted on pretzels, peanuts and Cheez-its. ´This is the food? I´m not too thrilled about it. It´s for the birds,´ said Ben Shelly, who helped mobilize support for Obama on the Navajo reservation in Arizona. Dancing was also difficult: it was much too crowded in

I am waiting for the day (and may have a longggggg wait) when the frenzied Obama supporters start to recognize that though THEIR lives have changed and they will be taxed into the ground, regulated to a T and Obamacared into a facsimile of Motor Vehicle when they need a Dr, Obama is wearing Brioni suits, using Air Force I as his personal taxi (at $100,000 and hour, why NOT go back to Hawaii for a day or so) and he and his are feasting on Kobi beef and taking multiple, multiple vacations.......a kingly example of do as I say, not as I do. Will they ever grasp, also, that what he says with such energy is in direct opposition as to what he does: e.g. the economy is recovering fast and the world is at peace. They really are fools.

Ummm, yeah. Not feeling bad for the guy from the Navajo Reservation. My parents´ live in the Southern end (the tax paying part) of Apache County Arizona. Apache County is ruled by all Navajos, who drive expensive taxpayer funded SUV´s. At the 4th of July parade this year, the Sheriff´s office showcased an Assault vehicle that had to cost in the millions.(Nothing scary about that...) The Navajo Nation tuurns out HUGE in every election to vote themselves more government goodies. "Sovereign Nation" M.A.
My parents´ and every one else´s taxes go up every year, and receive NO service from even the sheriff´s office. So buddy, enjoy your Cheez Its,it´s taxpayer funded just like everything else you vote for yourself.

Sorry for the double post. Ben Shelly, the Navajo Nation President is about to lose the biggest employer of Navajos. Obama´s EPA has declared war on coal fired energy plants. The Navajo Generating Station in Page, AZ is about to be forced to shut down by the EPA. The plant is almost all Navajo employees. The Navajos also supply most of the coal for this plant and others in the area. And this guy delivered votes to Obama, his people, already the poorest in the nation are about to lose jobs, and he´s complaining about Cheez Its.

Perhaps we can institute the Order of the Cheez-it here at L.com. It could be awarded to anyone who goes above and beyond in service to the Obamas. The retiree who donated $250,000 to the Democrats should get the first one (see #20).

Regarding the comment by the immigrant from India who supported Obama because of immigrant rights: when have legal immigrants from India ever had trouble coming to the US? What was going on this year with even Asians (another group which seems to have been able to immigrate legally here for years) going for Obama because of immigration policy? More groups splintered off through Obama´s and MSM tactics of divisiveness and fear.

The irony coupled with the patheticness (word?) is that those of us who have always known about what BO and his ilk are about find this as no surprise and never surprised by the depths he will stoop.
I imagine he and MO are laughing all the way to the bank with the 1 billion dollars they raised off of white guilt, limousine liberal celebrities and plantation blacks, lock, stock and barrel voters.
BO is probably whispering to MO while they are dancing, "Baby, wha fools they be...wheez got the money, the powa and four mo years of whatever we want...let the champagne flow and the vacays roll".
In four years, all we will be able to afford is govnmnt cheeze and generic brand pretzels.

The insurgent leader, who has not been named for operational reasons, commanded seven groups of Taliban fighters and bombers across southern Afghanistan. The dawn raid, carried out with Afghan forces, took place in the Marjah region near Nad-e-Ali, close to the British base in Lashkar Gah. It is believed the Taliban leader, who sources confirmed had regularly travelled between Helmand and Pakistan, had been hunted for a year after being linked to at least three other attacks.

Citing defense ministry sources in Seoul, Yonhap said the missiles had crashed into the Sea of Japan, off the eastern coast of the Korean peninsula. Two rockets were launched this morning while a third was launched in the afternoon, Yonhap said. Early South Korean media reports suggested “shore-based anti-ship” missiles had been fired. Such tests are not unusual in North Korea. In March, a similar launch was carried out with two short-range missiles taking off from the country’s eastern coast. The Tokyo-based news agency, Kyodo, reported the missiles had not fallen into Japanese waters. Yonhap said South Korea had “beefed

People are often called heroes these days without deserving the description. But one who does is Sir Nicholas Winton, who tomorrow celebrates his 104th birthday. As Neil Tweedie reports, this unassuming man characteristically does not want a fuss made either of his great age or of his illustrious past. He is uncomfortable being referred to as the British Oskar Schindler. Yet his achievements warrant the plaudits. In 1939, it was through his efforts that hundreds of predominantly Jewish children living in Czechoslovakia were evacuated to Britain, thereby escaping the Holocaust.

Some 10,000 years ago, somewhere in the Middle East’s fertile crescent, happenstance sowed the seeds of much of modern agriculture. Pollen from a wild goat grass landed on primitive wheat, creating a natural--but stronger and more productive--hybrid. [Snip] Now scientists at Britain’s National Institute of Agricultural Botany (NIAB) have deliberately duplicated that ancient accident, with a different goat grass, in an attempt to restart--and enormously accelerate--the process with new genes. Early indications are that this could increase wheat yields by a dramatic 30 percent. The National Farmers’ Union president, Peter Kendall, describes the potential as “just enormous”.

Obama administration officials who were in key positions on Sept. 11, 2012, acknowledge that a range of mistakes were made the night of the attacks on the U.S. missions in Benghazi, and in messaging to Congress and the public in the aftermath. The officials spoke to CBS News in a series of interviews and communications under the condition of anonymity so that they could be more frank in their assessments. They do not all agree on the list of mistakes and it's important to note that they universally claim that any errors or missteps did not cost lives and reflect "incompetence rather than malice or cover up.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

The State Department, under Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton, created an arrangement for her longtime aide and confidante Huma Abedin to work for private clients as a consultant while serving as a top adviser in the department. Ms. Abedin did not disclose the arrangement — or how much income she earned — on her financial report. It requires officials to make public any significant sources of income. An adviser to Mrs. Clinton, Philippe Reines, said that Ms. Abedin was not obligated to do so. The disclosure of the agreement that Ms. Abedin made with the State Department comes as her husband,

The Internal Revenue Service´s watchdog told top Treasury officials around June 2012 he was investigating allegations the tax agency had targeted conservative groups, for the first time indicating that Obama administration officials were aware of the explosive matter in the midst of the president´s re-election campaign. The disclosure to the Treasury general counsel and the deputy secretary was a cursory one, according to J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration.

The lawmaker leading the charge to investigate the Benghazi terror attack on Friday subpoenaed the co-author of a report that slammed the State Department but didn´t interview Hillary Clinton. House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) formally demanded that retired ambassador Thomas Pickering submit to being deposed by the committee next Thursday. The subpoena comes in the wake of a series of acrimonious public exchanges this week between the two men. Issa didn´t issue a subpoena to former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Michael Mullen, who co-authored the Benghazi report with Pickering.
