| Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) is keen on having a skeet shooting contest with President Obama. The White House? Not so much. A reporter at Wednesday’s daily briefing raised Blackburn’s challenge and asked press secretary Jay Carney: “Your reaction?” “I have none,” was the response from Carney, who quickly moved on to the next questioner.

Yeah, just ignore it because you know it was just another lie anyway. Obama never shot anything but spitwads in his life.

She is just a female R congress person. Surely an accomplished skeeter like our Dear Leader would have to trouble out skeeting her.

4 years of this kind of crap? Really? No different than bragging you serving in the military. In Zippy´s world, no one will verify that he ´does´ skeet shooting all the time.

So many lies...so much rump-swabbing by the lap dogs, and Carney is a horse´s ass.
$5 million to see my transcripts? Hell, yeah, here they are! (Unless, of course, you´re so full of sh** and lie about everything all the time like Barry Soetoro, the King of Liars!).

Where is the Moose-Hunter, Sarah Palin, in this controversy?
Cain´t she use some free publicity by entering the fray now?
"Fox hunts skeet with Guerrilla"
Sarah could offer Obie a year´s supply of Deer Antler Velvet Spray or whatever as
the prize to compete for.
It then becomes a "Deer In The Headlights" story.
Btw, we have Gummint by Guerrilla...
With an 800 Brazillion-Debt Guerrilla in the Oval Office.
Time we joined in the Guerrilla Warfare.
(I´ll check the spelling on all this later.)

Obama probably shoots skeet (!) as well as he throws out the first pitch at baseball games...
I would say he throws like a girl, except that would do a disservice to women like my sister and daughter, both of whom have better fastballs than him...

ALBANY, N.Y. -- With all the corruption in Albany, one of your representatives is instead focusing efforts on something many of you like to do, bowl. New York State Senator Patrick Gallivan (R-59th District) New York State Assemblyman Robin Schimminger (D-140th District) are sponsoring a bill that would cover bowling shoes. The bill in the assembly is co-sponsored by Assembly members Brian Kolb, Crystal Peoples-Stokes and Jane Corwin. It would require alley owners to post signs, warning keglers not to wear bowling shoes outside, lest they become wet

Attorney General Eric Holder signed off on a controversial search warrant that identified Fox News reporter James Rosen as a “possible co-conspirator” in violations of the Espionage Act and authorized seizure of his private emails, a law enforcement official told NBC News on Thursday. The disclosure of the attorney general’s role came as President Barack Obama, in a major speech on his counterterrorism policy, said Holder had agreed to review Justice Department guidelines governing investigations that involve journalists. “I am troubled by the possibility that leak investigations may chill the investigative

"I don´t know." "I don´t remember." "I´m not familiar with that detail." "It´s not my precise area." "I´m not familiar with that letter." These are quotes from the Internal Revenue Service officials who testified this week before the House and Senate. That is the authentic sound of stonewalling, and from the kind of people who run Washington in the modern age—smooth, highly credentialed and unaccountable. They´re surrounded by legal and employment protections, they know how to parse a careful response, they know how to blur the essential point of a question in a blizzard of unconnected factoids.

Members of the House Oversight Committee are getting closer to asking Hillary Clinton to testify on last year´s deadly attacks in Benghazi, Libya. Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) told The Hill that there are “a number of steps” that the panel “will take first” before calling the former secretary of State to the hearing room, but he left the door open to compelling her appearance. “We have a number of steps that we are taking to get full and complete discovery,” Issa said.

If you wonder whether (and how) the IRS scandal and related White House shenanigans could backfire on Republicans, watch Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus. In the last 24 hours, the man who conducted the "autopsy" on a party battered by President Obama in 2012 reverted to GOP form – demonizing, politicizing and overreaching just enough to jeopardize his cause. Until today, Republican leaders seemed satisfied with letting the White House hang itself, learning from the Clinton-Lewinsky era that there is a fine line between outrage and outrageousness. Priebus may have crossed it. It started with this Wednesday night tweet:

Enamored of communicating via the Internet at midnight, Anthony Weiner entered the mayor’s race by posting a video that essentially pleads with New Yorkers to take him seriously as a regular guy who cares. No joke. He joins the Democratic field as the most ridiculed and psychoanalyzed political candidate on Earth, one with the brass to believe he can persuade voters to forgive without forgetting and to trust that he has the stability and judgment to lead America’s largest city. In the age of terror. Weiner’s standing in the polls — second behind City Council Speaker Christine Quinn

Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.

Fox News chief Roger Ailes has sent a memo to his subordinates at the leading cable news network. He sent this memo to his staff today in connection with the federal investigation into an alleged leak to Fox News reporter James Rosen, a story that the Washington Post’s Ann E. Marimow broke earlier this week. The memo’s a masterpiece, too. For all those who wonder what it is about Ailes that endears his people to him — and that makes him such a good interviewee for any media reporter lucky enough to get an audience

WASHINGTON —In a dramatic departure from existing White House procedures, President Obama requested today that his staff start cc’ing him on stuff. “Look, I know a lot of you think I’m really busy and you don’t want to bother me,” the President reportedly told his staff in an Oval Office meeting. “But cc me anyway. It’s good for me to keep up on what’s going on around here.” “It’s not good when I turn on the news and they’re talking about something at the White House and I’m like, whoa, when did that happen?”
