White House doesn't dispute report finding no al Qaeda role in Benghazi attack


 
An interior view of the U.S. consulate, which was attacked and set on fire in Benghazi, Libya, Sept. 12, 2012.

A senior Obama administration official said the White House does not dispute a New York Times article published Saturday about the 2012 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, which found no evidence al Qaeda was involved.
According to the in-depth report, the Times found no proof that al Qaeda or any international terrorist groups played any role in the assault, which killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
The six-part report goes on to say that an American-made video mocking Islam largely triggered the attack, which was not well-planned.

 
 

Sandwich-wielding police talk naked Oregon man off of ledge

A crisis-intervention officer — armed with a sandwich — persuaded a naked, disturbed man to come down off the ledge of a parking structure he was threatening to jump off in Portland, Ore., Saturday.
Police said in a news release they responded to a call involving "a naked subject, possibly armed with a knife, acting as if he intended to jump off a parking structure" around 11:10 a.m. local time (2:30 p.m. ET).
The man "appeared to be experiencing a behavioral health crisis" -- sitting on the ledge, threatening to jump off and cutting himself, according to the release.
As an officer began speaking with the man, the troubled individual revealed he was hungry. 
A sandwich was then procured from the nearby Hotel deLuxe, and officers used it to "move the subject away from the ledge," police said.
That's when the man was taken into custody without incident, officials said. He is currently being evaluated at a hospital.
Police said criminal charges may be filed in connection to vandalism to vehicles in the parking structure and other potential crimes.

Obama faces protests on Hawaiian vacation

Protesters hold signs as the motorcade of President Barack Obama returns to Obama's vacation home in Kailua, Hawaii Dec. 28, 2013.
The serenity of President Barack Obama's Hawaiian vacation was rattled a little on Saturday when demonstrators aired grievances against unmanned aircraft and other issues in a small protest zone near the first family's upscale rented house. 
Returning from an early morning gym visit at nearby Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Obama's motorcade passed a few dozen protesters holding signs with slogans including "Drones: Unethical and Illegal," "U.S. Bases Out" and "Close Guantanamo Now." Others expressed their opposition to genetically modified foods.

Colorado Legislators Criminalize Christmas Gifts in the Name of Gun-Control  

Michael Schaus | Dec 27, 2013 Coloradoans, apparently, like their guns.

Dozens of criminals would be walking around with a gun right now if not for the new law ,”  said Rep. Rhonda Fields, a Colorado legislator with no apparent capacity to digest the meaning of the word “criminal”. Because, ya know, dozens of criminals tried to purchase a firearm from drug dealers, gun runners, and fellow gang members – only to find out that they were unable to pass the required background check. “Oh well,” they said to themselves when their fellow criminal reported the unfortunate denial from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. “I guess I’ll just go back to being an unarmed, and passive, member of society.”

Glenn Greenwald to MSNBC: I Defend Snowden Like You Defend Obama

Kevin Glass | Dec 26, 2013
    
              
In a confrontational interview with MSNBC anchor Kristen Welker, progressive journalist Glenn Greenwald said that he's a defender of Edward Snowden's actions in the same sense that MSNBC is a defender of President Obama. Greenwald said that he believes "every journalist has an agenda. We're on MSNBC now, where close to 24 hours a day the agenda of President Obama and the Democratic Party are promoted, defended, glorified, the agenda of the Republican Party is undermined. That doesn't mean the people who appear on MSNBC aren't journalists. They are." "I do defend [Edward Snowden]," Greenwald said, "just like people on MSNBC defend President Obama and Democratic Party leaders 24 hours a day."  Watch: http://bcove.me/jwo41z4q

New York federal judge rules NSA phone surveillance is legal   DEC 27, 2013

A federal judge in New York has ruled that the National Security Agency's massive collection of American citizens' telephone records is both legal and useful. STORY


Federal judge says NSA program appears to violate Constitution
A federal judge has dealt the first serious legal blow to the NSA's massive collection of data on the phone calls made by every American.  It's the first step in what's sure to be a high-stakes legal battle. NBC's Pete Williams reports.
A federal judge ruled Monday that the National Security Agency’s gathering of data on all telephone calls made in the United States appears to violate the Constitution’s protection against unreasonable searches. STORY

Amazing....Double standards......Oh, this is "white on black" crime. The "knockouts" I read before were "black on white" and there wasn't enough evidence in those to deem them"hate crime"

'Knockout game' attack leads to hate crime charge        

This booking photo released by the Harris County Sherrif's Office
    A white Houston-area man was arrested Thursday on federal hate crimes charges for allegedly shooting video of himself sucker-punching a 79-year-old black man in a "knockout game"-style attack.    
Conrad Alvin Barrett, 27, made a brief appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Frances Stacy, who scheduled a detention hearing for the Katy man on Friday.
According to prosecutors, the attack happened Nov. 24 in Katy, but it wasn't until 12 days later that authorities connected the attack to the cellphone video of it.

The attack video doesn't show Barrett's face, but investigators matched his voice to the voice in the video and the couple at the restaurant told investigators that Barrett was wearing the same shorts and shoes at the person who shot the video.
According to prosecutors, the video shows Barrett approach the victim and ask, "How's it going, man?" A "loud smack" is then heard, the victim falls to the ground, Barrett laughs and says, "Knockout." The assailant then flees in his vehicle.
 
 
The victim lost three teeth and needed surgery to repair his jaw, which had been broken in two places. He was hospitalized for more than four days, authorities said.

If convicted of the hate crime charge, Barrett could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison and fined up to $250,000.

Obama Gives Somalia $1.5 Bil, Somalia Bans Christmas

Barack Obama, right, is dressed as a Somali elder by Sheikh Mahmed Hassan
Somalia has about 1,000 surviving Christians. And that’s a challenge in a country where everyone is either in an Islamic militia or trying to move to the United States to sponge off welfare and plot terrorist bombings

In 2009, four Christian orphanage workers were beheaded for refusing to convert to Islam. Now Somalia has gotten enough of its act together to ban Christmas.
The Somali Government has banned celebration of Christian festivities in the country.
The Director General of the ministry, Sheikh Mohamed Khayrow Aden, and the Director of the Religious Matters, Sheikh Ali Sheikh Mohamud alias Sheikh Ali Dhere, held a press conference in the capital Mogadishu, to make the announcement.
“We alert fellow Muslims in Somalia that some festivities to mark Christian Days will take place around the world in this week,” said Sheikh Ali Dhere during the press conference, adding: “It is prohibited to celebrate those days in this country.”        FULL STORY

Usually, I will post start of article, then a link to read rest.....I put a paragraph from about midway, just in case you decide not to read entire post.....

       
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

The historical event is worth a few minutes of recollection as we trudge toward 2014 with an increasingly apparent devolution of freedom in America. After all, in the days of our founding, a simple tax on our breakfast beverage resulted in massive protests in Boston Harbor – and ultimately a few gunshots. Our founders were tired of being ruled by a body of “representatives” hundreds of miles away. They were fed up with the dictatorial nature of King George’s executive action, and disregard for individual property rights. Imagine living in a land where one man in the executive branch could unilaterally alter law… It’s not that hard to imagine, is it?

Sure, King George never shoved universal healthcare down the throats of our Patriot founders; but he did enact taxes, regulation, and tariffs, with little more than a stroke of a pen. (No word, yet, on how often he decided to play golf.)
DARTBAG: CBS Chicago scrubs article noting Sheriff is now carrying a gun, a right he wants to deny citizens

DARTBAG: CBS Chicago scrubs article noting Sheriff is now carrying a gun, a right he wants to deny citizens

CBS Chicago posted an article yesterday noting that Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart was now carrying a gun, something that the Chicago politician pretending to be a law enforcement officer had not done previously.
The URL to the story is now dead, but Google’s cache is forever.
It is not unusual for a sheriff to be carrying a gun. In fact, it would be expected in some places.
But when Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart recently started carrying one on his belt, it was a bit unusual.
So WBBM’s Mike Krauser asked him about it.

Dart – a former state lawmaker known for policy as much as anything else — said he’s been getting some unwanted attention, unfortunately.
The sheriff has had his life threatened.
“It’s been impressed upon me that I have five little kids, and I need to be around a bit,” Dart says. “So, I can’t just cavalierly just blow everything off.”
“It’s a little bit of a wake-up call, unfortunately,” he added. “I have no delusions of my abilities.”
The gun goes with the job, he says.
So Tom Dart thinks he’s the only special snowflake worth protecting in Chicago; all the other fathers and mothers  in the murder capital of the United States simply aren’t as worthy. This is the same jerk actively seeking to block citizens from legally carrying concealed, even though they are legally required to have more training than he probably does.
If I were Dart, I’d want the story scrubbed, too.
Blatant hypocrisy is never attractive.

Anti-Gun Rally Turns into Revolt Against Chicago Political Machine

Al Sharpton’s Chicago Town Hall Erupts into Anti-Political Machine Revolt (Awesome Video)
 
Nick Sorrentino | Dec 23, 2013 One of the best videos I have seen in a long time. This is what I’m talking about. Al Sharpton (the MSNBC designated African-American mouth piece for this White House) goes to Chicago and gets an earful from a vastly African American audience which is fed up with the Chicago political system, with Al Sharpton, and to at least some degree with this president.
I found this video deeply encouraging. See more at Against Crony Capitalism.org

Russia 'not really concerned' about Obama's absence from Sochi Olympics     [NEITHER AM I ]

REUTERS/Maxim Shemetov
The Olympic rings are on display in front of a newly-built railway station "Adler" in the Black Sea resort city of Sochi, Dec. 24, 2013.
MOSCOW -- The organizing committee for Russia’s Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics said Thursday it was "not really concerned" that President Barack Obama would not be attending the event.
Sochi will be the first games since 2000 not attended by a U.S. president, first lady, or vice president. Obama said his decision not to go was due to a busy schedule in Washington, but it has come against a backdrop of increased tensions with Moscow.
Asked if Obama's decision to stay away was a concern, Head of Russian Olympic Committee Alexander Zhukov told NBC News: "The Olympic Games are the competition of outstanding sportsmen and this is the main reason why they are interesting.
"It's not a summit, which only the country leaders attend. So we’re not really concerned about it."

Cruciphobia at Mt. Soledad: The Cross the Left Can't Bear
 Michelle Malkin | Dec 25, 2013        
Consider this: Taylor Swift wasn't even born yet when the fight over the Mount Soledad cross began. How much longer will it drag on? Disgruntled atheists first filed suit over the memorial at a veterans park in San Diego in the summer of 1989. The fringe grievance-mongers have clung bitterly to their litigious activities for nearly a quarter-century. It's time to let go and bring peace to the city.
The historic 43-foot cross has stood atop Mount Soledad on public land since 1954. The Mount Soledad Memorial Association erected the monument to commemorate the sacrifice of American soldiers who died in the Korean War, World War I and World War II. The cross has long carried meaning for the city's residents far beyond religious symbolism. "It's a symbol of coming of age and of remembrance," Pastor Mark Slomka of the Mount Soledad Presbyterian Church said years ago when the case erupted. The San Diego Union-Tribune editorial board explained that the cross is "much like the Mission San Diego de Alcala and the cross at Presidio Park, both of which also are rooted in Christianity but have come to signify the birth of San Diego."       View Full Article

And Martin Anderson said...."LET THERE BE LIGHT"


A number worth remembering: 54

54 square metres of mirrors have been installed on a mountain in Norway to light up a little village at the bottom of a narrow valley.
The village of Rjukan in Norway has a bit of a problem – for six months of the year, the mountain above stops the winter sun reaching its 3,500 inhabitants. This has been going on for a century, ever since a local factory decided to found the little village to take advantage of the nearby waterfalls. But the curse on Rjukan has now been broken once and for all. A few weeks ago, the sun’s rays finally managed to penetrate its narrow streets. This mini-miracle was almost entirely due to the tireless work of one Martin Andersen, a Norwegian artist who spent years promoting a rather crazy idea – putting mirrors on the 400 metre-high mountain ridge to reflect the light that the villagers so desperately needed. After months of work, three mirrors covering a surface of 51 square metres are now finally in place above Rjukan. The whole operation cost 610,000 euros – not an insignificant investment, but one that the village mayor reckons has already largely paid for itself in the boost to tourism generated by publicity.

(Is it just me, or is Kwanzaa getting way too commercialized?)Contrary to pundits sniping about Ted Cruz's campaign to repeal Obamacare, even the most boneheaded liberal ideas never "collapse on their own," which is why we still have public schools and President Obama. If nothing is done, Kwanza will join these horrors in the firmament of American life.It is a fact that Kwanzaa was invented in 1966 by a black radical FBI stooge, Ron Karenga -- aka Dr. Maulana Karenga -- founder of United Slaves, a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers.

Earthquake? No...Frost Quake!

Well.....You learn something new every day, no matter how old you are. In all my years I never heard of this. What makes it personal is I have family living in N Y , right on the shores of Lake Ontario and they are in the midst of the results of an ice storm and are experiencing these "booms".
February 12, 2011; 7:27 AM   this article is from Feb. 2011, but this story is ongoing Dec. 25 2013
   
You're sound asleep on a cold, wintry night, and all of a sudden a loud boom wakes you up. A few things on your shelves rattle for a second or two, then all is silent.
Was it an earthquake? Maybe, but the real culprit is likely a frost quake, a geological phenomenon brought on by winter weather. Unlike earthquakes, frost quakes are non-tectonic seismic events, meaning they are not caused by the shifting of the Earth's tectonic plates.
Also known as cryoseisms, frost quakes are caused by a sudden rapid freezing of ground and bedrock, usually when temperatures go from above freezing to below zero.        READ MORE

It’s True – Obama Tried to Sign Up for Obamacare But “System Couldn’t Verify His Identity” (Video)
This is just freaking hilarious. I guess the databases didn’t recognize his fake SSN, or give a crap about the spiced up joke of a birth certificate that Obama posted on line as real.
His mom was born here which makes him eligible to hold his office, but he is definitely hiding something. I think it is that the communist Frank Marshall Davis is his real father myself…
Ed Henry at FOX News reported:
“We learned today from the White House. Initially, they said he signed up for what they called a bronze plan, paying about four hundred dollars a month in premiums. But, then they came back to us and said – Wait, he didn’t actually enroll. They said his staff did it and that’s because of his unique circumstance as Commander in Chief. That his personal information is not in particular government data bases. So healthcare.gov could not actually verify his identity, oddly enough… So his staff did it.”


 

Drunken woman enters elephant pen at Denver Zoo, gets electric shock: cops

An “extremely intoxicated” woman was taken to the hospital late Tuesday after entering the elephant pen at Denver Zoo and receiving a shock from an electric fence, police and officials said.
The incident happened at about 9 p.m. local time during the attraction’s annual Zoo Lights holiday event, the zoo said in a statement to NBC affiliate 9News.
“No animals were in the yard at the time,” said the statement, which described the woman as “disoriented.”
“The woman was transported for medical care. Denver police and Denver Zoo are talking to guests to determine what happened,” it said.
The Denver Fire Department told the Denver Post newspaper that woman received a shock from an electric fence, and 9News said she was treated for minor injuries at the scene.
In a post on its Twitter feed, the Denver Police Department said: “No electrocution. Extremely intoxicated female entered elephant pen at zoo & sat down next to electrical wires.”

NSA leaker Edward Snowden: 'Mission's already accomplished'

In an interview, former NSA contractor Edward Snowden declared victory after federal recommendations were made for more oversight on an NSA intelligence gathering program. Snowden dismissed charges that he violated his agreement not to disclose classified information.  NBC's Peter Alexander reports.
National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden said his "mission's already accomplished" and spoke of having “personal satisfaction” at the revelations about U.S. surveillance policies in an interview published Tuesday.
The former intelligence contractor, who exposed extensive details of global electronic surveillance by the U.S. spy agency, said he was not being disloyal to the U.S. or to his former employer.
"I am not trying to bring down the NSA, I am working to improve the NSA," he told The Washington Post. "I am still working for the NSA right now. They are the only ones who don't realize it."
It is the first full interview with Snowden, now 30, since he arrived in Moscow in June in a dramatic bid to evade prosecution by authorities in the U.S., where he is charged with espionage and felony theft of government property.
He has been granted temporary asylum by Russia, and remains at an undisclosed location, but his long-term future status remains unclear.

Mystery illness claims more bald eagles in Utah

AP
The Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah has been caring for sick bald eagles since the beginning of the month, each of them succumbing to a mystery illness.
Something is killing bald eagles in Utah, and wildlife officials are scrambling to diagnose the mysterious illness before it spreads. 
At least 16 bald eagles in Utah have died since the beginning of the month, with another rescued bird likely facing the same puzzling fate, wildlife officials said Tuesday.
About half of the bald eagles identified since Dec. 1 were discovered dead, while the other half died or were euthanized at rehabilitation centers.
A lab in Madison, Wis., is conducting blood work and toxicology screenings, the results of which may not be available for a couple of weeks, said DaLyn Erickson-Marthaler, executive director of the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of Northern Utah.

   The obligatory follow-up to Ed’s post earlier. When they said O was planning to enroll today, I thought they meant he’d take a break from the links for half an hour to punch in his info on the D.C. exchange website. Upon reflection, though, that was silly. Of course the president’s not going to entrust his vital info to one of these tinpot online exchanges. He knows better than anyone how vulnerable they are; the one he built himself was so grotesquely flawed, his own security team wouldn’t sign off on it. Special procedures would be needed.
