-Short Attention Span Theater-
The Clinton library's secret files may yet emerge.
[Politico] Under the Presidential Records Act, such records can be withheld for up to 12 years after a president leaves office. However, at the 12-year mark, those broad restrictions fall away and the once-secret presidential papers are generally subject to disclosure. For the Clinton files, that milestone came and went in January 2013.

The long-sealed records pose a delicate series of choices for the Clintons, and even President Champ. They could allow disclosure of the papers, fueling new stories about old controversies like Whitewater and pardons granted as the 42nd president left office in 2001. Or they could fight to keep some or all of the files secret, likely triggering a court battle and stoking concerns that the former president and his wife are unduly secretive.

Either way, it’s a potentially messy situation unfolding just as the Hildebeast — widely considered a clear front-runner for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination — mulls over whether to make a second bid to return to the White House.

#1  I don't think we will ever know about all of Slick Willy's dalliances, Vince Foster, how Hillary turned $1000 into $100,000 in land and pork belly deals or where the bodies are buried in Arkansas.

#2  There won't be any disclosure, Hillary seeks office, remember.

Seal'em and keep em sealed for another 12 years, at least.

(What Hilary wants, hide and divert.)

Another reason to not vote for Hillary, she's another Obama in (All) whiteface.

Home Front: Politix
Immigrants Are Only Fit to be Servants. (Sarcasm)
Florida Democratic congressional candidate Alex Sink said immigration reform was important at a Tuesday debate because, without it, it would be difficult for employers to find people to clean hotel rooms and do landscaping.
Because we have a real problem here with over employment. There is just no one left un-employed.
“Immigration reform is important in our country,” she said. “We have a lot of employers over on the beaches that rely upon workers and especially in this high-growth environment, where are you going to get people to work to clean our hotel rooms or do our landscaping? We don’t need to put those employers in a position of hiring undocumented and illegal workers.”
WOW, just......WOW
Evidently, without this reform, these blue-collar jobs will fall into the hands of illegal aliens.
So we need amnasty to fill these job openings.
Sink is running in a special election for Florida’s 13th congressional seat, which was vacated upon the death of Bill Young last year. She ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2010 against Rick Scott.
Such stupidity should be outlawed. There is more to immigrants than just filling menial jobs. Aparantly she thinks the only people who want to come here are unskilled labourers.

#1  Cut out all the welfare, EBT cards and other free stuff. Eliminate the minimum wage. If people get hungry they'll work and we won't need immigrants.
Posted by: Ebbang Uluque6305 || 02/26/2014 13:00 Comments || Top||

#2  Given the choice, should we import gardeners or PhDs and entrepreneurs?

#3  For clarity, Mrs. Sunk was not be sarcastic. She is quite certain in the video.

Give us, ancient lands, your storied pomp
she orates with leftist lips
Give us your tired, your poor, your napkin wizards learning to make creases.
The wretched refuse haulers and your pruning hoards.
Send them, the bellboys, makers of toast to me.
I lift their ebt card to make them perpetually poor.

Dems try to bully cancer sufferer into silence about ACA - Powerline

#1  Hey! She got coverage that might be nearly as good, at a cost that is not much more than she used to pay, and the deductibles are a little higher, and her most expensive medicine isn't covered. So what is she complaining about?

Answer: That Obamacare forced her into that situation.
Posted by: Bobby || 02/26/2014 7:58 Comments || Top||

#2  Climate change and institutional racism prove that people are the problem. The slaughter of the unborn, senseless wars, and cancer are 'social toolbox' imperatives. Doesn't anyone listen to Oprah ?
Posted by: Besoeker || 02/26/2014 8:24 Comments || Top||

#3  They are not the loyal opposition. They are not good people with whom we have a good faith disagreement. They are not prepared to let the best man win. They are evil. They are the enemy.

#4  Harry Reid syays this is a horror story made up by the Koch Brothers who want to buy America. He said ALL of these stories are made up, lies.

Obama Says Supporters Doing 'God's Work'
[Weekly Standard] President Obama thanked the group that used to be his reelection campaign, Organizing for Action, in event tonight in Washington.

"The work you are doing is God's work," Obama told supporters.
Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Matt.24:4-5

#1  I wonder who told him to say that?

#2  ..in Mr. O's mind, his work = G*ds work..

#3  More like the Beelzebub's bidding.

#4  Obama to OFA: “4 million people have already signed up because of you. 4 million” [holding up four fingers]

I wonder how many signed up for Obamacare ?

Yes, snark.
Posted by: Redneck Jim || 02/26/2014 10:26 Comments || Top||

#5  More like in O's mind:

Doing Obama's work == Doing Gods Work.
Posted by: CrazyFool || 02/26/2014 10:37 Comments || Top||

#6  4 was the number who actually sent in a payment for Obamacare.

We definitely need to get that list; they will be the first 4 disciples.

#7  Since The Once sees himself as God he's right.

#8  He better watch what he is pimping. GOD may be watching, and NOTHING obama does is Godly. NOTHING

#9  "The work you are doing is God's work," Obama told supporters, "Allahu Akhbar!"

#10  Dog's wok? Did he say dog's wok?
Posted by: swksvolFF || 02/26/2014 15:55 Comments || Top||

#11  Obama says his supporters are doing god's work.
And since YOU Obama claim as your supporters gays, heed the following Words:

Romans 1:27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

Isaiah 55:9 For the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.



Proverbs 14:12 There is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end thereof, the ways of death.

1. You shall have no other gods before me.
2. You shall not make yourself any images to worship.
3. You shall not make false promises (lie) on the name of the LORD your God.
4. Remember the Sabbath, keep it holy.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not commit criminal homicide.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not make false witness against your neighbor.
10. You shall not desire your neighbor's possessions.

#12  Keep in mind he does the 'folksy' schtuff every so often, like in campaigns or when he's talking to non-Ivy Leaguers.

#13  Yah, but what God? Loki?
