| President Obama has a very carefully crafted public image, and he’s willing to shut out his friends in the press to maintain it. Over a long Presidents Day weekend, Mr. Obama hit the links for the 114th, 115th and 116th time in a little more than four years. He bunked at the Floridian National Golf Club in Palm Beach, an exclusive gated golf community, and the traveling White House reporters were not allowed to get any closer than a seat in a bus parked just inside the gate, with an unobstructed view of a humble maintenance shed.

It doesn´t seem to matter that Obama does whatever he wants to do. I just heard that his approval rating is 55%, the highest rating yet.

When I started watching "Scandal," I initially found myself laughing at how far-fetched most of the characters and plots seemed. The more I watch the more plausible the situations are . . . from voter fraud in Ohio to the president murdering a supreme court justice. Secrecy and cover ups abound and NOT ONE of the characters has a single redeeming quality.

Obama and Washington comprise on entity many alcoholics, a town of greed addicted tax and graft driven people. Alcoholosim is known as the desease of denial, the alcoholic flatly and totally denies he is addicted. So, Obama and all his hushed up cohorts are all addicted to greed and in all denial; they are greed addicts. Now comes along the other part of alcoholism; the enabler, classicaly the non drinking spouse, also in her own denial, who supports and protects the alcoholic in every ingenious way possible, so that he can quietly continue his addicted road to destruction. The addict is all those in Washington starting with its most greedy member in history, the Imprsonator in Chief. And the enabler is the entire main stream media as symoblically, wife-like, led by Diane Sawyer, the lovely, believable, perfect model of all enablers in history. One is addicted to greed, the other protects til the end comes. Intervention is when friends group together and confront the addict. And, many friends have already, and continue to confront the addicted Obama and his pack with their non stop, destructive wrongdoings. It´s not working, it’s hopeless. So, the big decision, it´s long past time to go to the enabler, in this case the mainstream press, and confront THEM ! Get the enabler to stop protecting the addict. The enabler, although in denial, is not nearly as serious an offender as the addict. We non addicts, citizens, must create a mass intervention with the enablers and pull them away from their destructive, protction of the greed of our president and all of Congress and Washington.

Once the enabler is pulled off the job of enabling, the addict meets his doom, his once protected addiction, much quicker. We must have intervention the Diane Sawyers, Brian Williams, Steve Pelleys Geraldos, Georges, O´Reillys, all the obvious protectors. Go straight to them and only them because going to the addict is proven a zero sum game.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a newly elected Republican with a penchant for making headlines, filed an amendment that would bar undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States from ever earning citizenship. There are an estimated 11 million people living in the country illegally, and a bipartisan immigration reform measure would create a pathway to citizenship over the course of 13 years by requiring those people to pay penalties and back taxes, as well as learn English. Conservatives opposed to reform decry the path as amnesty, but Democrats say they will not support

WORCESTER — Police and officials at the funeral home where Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s body is being held say that a plan has fallen apart to bury Tsarnaev at a state prison. According to two officials at the Graham Putnam Mahoney Funeral Parlors with knowledge of the plan, the plan was hatched on Monday, and police from the city where the prison is located met with funeral home officials Tuesday. The plan, which called for moving the body to the prison during the early morning hours, fell apart sometime Tuesday, the officials said.

Republican Rep. Darrell Issa said Wednesday, as the oversight committee he chairs launched into a high-profile hearing on the Benghazi attacks, that the whistle-blowers giving their version of events are "actual experts" on what happened -- who could challenge the administration´s narrative. As the hearing began, one whistle-blower questioned Wednesday why more military assets were not deployed sooner during the Benghazi terror attack. Mark Thompson, a former Marine and official with the State Department´s Counterterrorism Bureau, said he was rebuffed by the White House when he asked for a specialized team -- known as a FEST team --

Former GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney got under the craw of the liberal intelligentsia concerning his remarks about marriage during his commencement address to graduates at Southern Virginia University last month: This is a promise: “Launch out into the deep, and your nets will be filled.” How do you do that? Well, getting married is one way to launch into the deep. I’m so glad I found Ann when I was still so young. Combining your life with another person, particularly someone—men and women as different as we are, this combination is tremendously challenging and enormously rewarding.

Last month, the American media had a brief moment of accountability when many in the press and broadcast networks acknowledged that they had largely ignored the case of Kermit Gosnell. The trial of the murderous Philadelphia abortionist flew below the radar for weeks. But some journalists were willing to fess up to the fact that their lack of interest in a sensational crime had something to do with their lack of comfort in discussing a case that might throw a shadow on an issue most in the media see as pitting an enlightened advocacy of “choice”

It started with reports that former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sandra O´Connor had second thoughts on the court´s decision to rule on the issue of George W. Bush v. Albert G. Gore, followed by dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library in Texas. Together, those events brought on a flutter of Gore nostalgia, a longing of sorts for his alternative presidency; the dream one that never took place. Since 2001 it had been the destination of choice in liberal fantasies, wherein Saddam Hussein was contained without bluster or bloodshed, terrorist attacks were derailed

Many Democrats also want to see a more aggressive and visible president to push the law across the country.

Three kidnapped young women were starved, repeatedly raped — and then beaten when they got pregnant — in a basement Cleveland dungeon run by three twisted brothers, law-enforcement sources said yesterday. The tortured victims were imprisoned in a dilapidated, white-clapboard home with chains mounted to the ceiling for about 10 years before finally escaping Monday evening. Michelle Knight, 32, Amanda Berry, 26, and Gina DeJesus, 23, were treated as sex slaves — kept chained and taped in separate rooms, sources told the local ABC affiliate. They were also seen naked and on dog leashes in the back yard, according to USA Today.

When it first became clear that the CIA’s Benghazi talking points had been altered, many of us viewed the White House as the prime suspect. After all, it served President Obama’s political purposes to claim, at the height of a political campaign in which he was taking credit for the fall of al Qaeda, that the death of a U.S. ambassador was down to spontaneous outrage over a video, rather than pre-planned terrorism. It turns out, however, that the State Department was the prime culprit. It was State that pushed back hard against the original talking points.

Republican lawmakers, who have spent months seeking to tie President Obama to last year’s deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, are increasingly focusing their probe on a new target: former secretary of state Hillary Rodham Clinton. The GOP-led investigation of the Sept. 11, 2012, assaults that killed U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three others now centers heavily on the State Department and whether officials there deliberately misled the public about the nature of the assault. Three State Department officials are scheduled to testify before a House committee on Wednesday about the Benghazi attack and its aftermath.

Sanford defeated Colbert Busch 54 percent to 45 percent, according to full unofficial results. Turnout was heavier than expected, with about 32 percent of the district’s 455,702 registered voters casting ballots. Sanford, who has never lost an election, returns to the 1st District seat he held for three terms from 1995-2001.

There was tragic incompetence, plainly, in the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi attacks, and even possibly some political calculation. It is a record that may well come to haunt Hillary Clinton, the first Secretary of State to lose an ambassador in the field in more than three decades, if she runs for president in 2016. But the obvious Republican effort to turn this inquiry into the Democratic (Obama) version of the Iraq intelligence scandal that has tarred the GOP since the George W.
