| Fresh off his reelection, President Barack Obama is asking his supporters to complete a survey that asks the people being polled to check off which “constituency groups” they identify with – there are 22 groups listed but not one for “whites” or “men.” The post-election survey, distributed through www.barackobama.com to “take this organization forward,” includes the question, “Which constituency groups do you identify yourself with? Select all that apply.” It then lists 22 groups. But whites and men are not on the list – women are, as are African Americans, Arab-Americans, Latinos and LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender).

You can sit and complain all you want. The name of the game is data analytics.
With all of the smart people in the GOP, how is it that we are being out organized.
How many GOP Gov´s are there? Why don´t we have a really strong ground game? Why are we not building our own databases?
Has anyone heard of a telephone tree? Those robocals were obnoxious? Can the GOP create community organizers? Our own communities?

This of course is the complete opposite of what America has always represented. No e pluribus unum here, just warring tribes of hyphenated Americans, united only in their resentment, envy and malice towards those they think are unjustly better off materially.
It is significant that while disfavored groups are called special interests, those in favor are referred to as constituencies.
A majority of American idiots voted for four more years of this un- and anti-American Leftist fantasy ideology, which will bring strife, violence, and ruin at home and abroad. Let us hope they will learn something from the predictable results. It will be a costly lesson.
Next up: war in the Middle East. At least this might throw a monkey wrench in some of the social engineering plans of our Leftist sleepwalkers. But they will foul that up too, just as they foul up everything they touch. In a way it´s not their fault. Their premises are wrong, Their parade begins on the wrong foot. Everything they are convinced is true about human beings and how they think and behave is false. It is inevitable that actions based upon such profound misunderstandings will lead to the gravest of consequences and complications. But the potentially lethal thing about Leftism is the inability or perhaps refusal of its true believers to learn from their mistakes, They are so wedded to their fantasy world and its unexamined assumptions that they persist in rejecting world world and the people in it, including themselves, as they actually are, preferring instead the comforts and consolations of fantasies even when the latter fail to fulfill their promises and bring still more troubles in their wake.

Maybe white men aren´t pandered and coddled and subsidised because they don´t need help to accomplish the smallest things. And now that I think of it, very little babying of Japanese-Americans happens either... maybe because they aren´t undignified whiners too egoistic to start at a baseline.

Massachusetts prosecutors are dropping charges against a disgraced former Newton elementary school teacher who had been accused of sexually assaulting three children, saying they’re content to let him serve out a 45-year federal child-porn sentence — and that the victims’ families didn’t want to force their children into painful trial testimony. David Ettlinger, 35, will not be prosecuted on charges he abused two children in Suffolk County and one in Middlesex County, Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley and Middlesex District Attorney Gerard T. Leone said in a joint statement today. “Given the length of the defendant’s federal sentence,

The State Department has acknowledged that five U.S. personnel killed in Afghanistan, including 25-year-old diplomat Anne Smedinghoff, were on foot when they were attacked by a suicide bomber, and not in an armored vehicle, as officials had told bereaved relatives earlier this week. The violent deaths of U.S. diplomatic personnel — and the State Department’s changing account of how they died — harken back to the debacle in Benghazi, Libya, where Islamist extremists killed four Americans in assaults on the U.S. diplomatic compound on Sept. 11. “We are able to clarify at this point that they were

To Beat Terry McAuliffe, Virginia Republicans Are Trying to Make Him Look Like Mitt Romney

Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic front-runner in the Virginia gubernatorial race, once made an outlandish claim that would make Mitt Romney cringe. At a debate during his failed 2009 campaign, McAuliffe declared he “created over 100,000 jobs—good-paying jobs with benefits and good wages. That’s what I’ll do as governor.” A Democratic rival scoffed that McAuliffe apparently had created more jobs than Microsoft´s Bill Gates. McAuliffe’s campaign on Wednesday did not respond directly to questions about whether he stands by the 100,000 jobs—the same number Republican presidential nominee Romney struggled to defend in the 2012 campaign.

WASHINGTON— Gun control supporters have won the first Senate showdown over restricting firearms, rejecting an effort by conservatives to derail a package of gun curbs before debate could even begin. The 68-31 vote gave an initial burst of momentum to efforts by President Barack Obama and lawmakers, mostly Democrats, to impose gun restrictions following the December carnage at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. Gun control supporters needed 60 votes to block the conservatives. The legislation would subject more firearms buyers to federal background checks, strengthen laws against illicit gun trafficking and increase school safety aid.

Welcome to a brave new "national conversation" that proposes not simply to redefine the family, but to eliminate it. MSNBC host Melissa Harris-Perry recently shocked millions with her brazen TV promo spot urging us to get rid of the idea that kids belong to their parents or to "private" families. She presses us to replace it with a "collective" notion of children: "Kids belong to whole communities." Clearly, we are entering a new phase in family breakdown. In the earlier phases, leftist policies cultivated unrestrained sexual license, abortion and single parenting.

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again.
