The U.N organizers of the Paris Climate Change summit had requested that each countries leader limit their speech to three minutes.  Dear Leader was having none of that.

Obama ignores UN request that each of the 140 leaders should speak for only 3 minutes. He spoke for more than 14 minutes. #COP21

Obama knew inherently that he alone was vastly more important than all other speakers, and he was intent on expressing his magnanimity so the participants could all benefit from his brilliance.

After several excess minutes the horrible event organizers began breaking into the worlds most magnificent words with a buzzer in a vein attempt to end his oration. However, Dear Leader battled through their noise and kept everyone transfixed with his intensely wonderful reading. Obama knew the international audience wanted to hear his opinion much more than all those lesser officials.

Here’s an odd riddle, I couldn’t answer – perhaps you can.  Some might find worthy of discussion.

What exactly was the purpose behind all of those inquiries into President Obama’s Birth Certificate?  Was it, as many have presented and thousands have bantered back and forth, to finally find out if President Obama was born in Kenya instead of Hawaii.

Was that the goal?

If that was the goal, and if it was discovered that President Obama was born in Kenya to a Kenyan father and American mother (Ann Dunham), as best we can determine from the thousands of opinions on the matter, and according to those most heavily invested in this expedition, President Obama would have been ineligible for Presidential office.

So, according to those who understand these issues, if the birth certificate showed Obama born outside of the U.S. he would have been ineligible. (more…)

The story of CENTCOM analysts accusing commanders of manipulating intelligence reports on ISIS to appease the White House is a story that has some interest in the mainstream media – but what if it is actually connected to a larger issue?

Washington DC -Allegations are mounting that senior intelligence officials at Central Command not only skewed findings on the ISIS war to please D.C., but tried to hide what they did.

In July, a group of intelligence analysts at the U.S. military’s Central Command accused their bosses of distorting and selectively editing intelligence reports about the fight against ISIS in order to portray that campaign as more successful than it really was. As a result of those complaints, the Pentagon’s inspector general opened an investigation.

Now, the allegations of misconduct have extended to a possible cover-up, with some analysts accusing the senior intelligence officials at CENTCOM, Maj. Gen. Steven Grove and his civilian deputy, Gregory Ryckman, of deleting emails and files from computer systems before the inspector general could examine them, three individuals familiar with the investigation told The Daily Beast.

One U.S. official said the alleged activity could amount to obstruction and interference with the inspector general’s investigation, which began last summer.  (read more)

The presumption within the controversy (as it is generally discussed by the media) is that CENTCOM bosses changed the intel to give the impression of success to please the White House.  But what if that wasn’t the reason?

Meanwhile today, while everyone is looking at the “shiny refugee thing”, the Obama administration files an appeal for review of the Hanen DAPA injunction to the Supreme Court…

DAPA or Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents program – is the executive action Obama attempted in November of 2014 which was shut down by Federal Judge Andrew Hanen in February ’15 with the issuance of an emergency injunction.

It was the “injunction” blocking the administration which was appealed to the 5th CCA the first time. The White House lost the first appeal, and had two options: (more…)

The White House Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes was on Fox News Sunday today.  One of the topics discussed was importing more Syrian refugees:

Video Prompted to [@02:19] Wallace “One of the attackers in the French slaughter was carrying a Syrian passport that seemed to indicate that he had been a refugee that had come into Europe along with the flood of migrants in October. Given that, is President Obama reconsidering the plan to accept 10,000 Syrian refugees over the next year?”

Rhodes: “No, Chris, we’re still planning to take in Syrian refugees,we have very robust vetting procedures for those refugees.”

In multiple interviews with media people DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has claimed the entire apparatus of the DNC was involved in discussion over the scheduling of debates.  

This claim contradicts DNC Co-Chair Tulsi Gabbard who stated Wasserman-Schultz did not consult with anyone, and was working entirely on her own to benefit the candidacy of Hillary Clinton. 

Now a second DNC Co-Chair, R.T. Rybak, has stepped forward to say Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is lying, there was no consultation or input.  When pushed by the media, the DNC Chief of Staff now admits Wasserman-Schultz was indeed, lying.

(Via New York Times) […]  In a telephone interview Thursday, Mr. Rybak weighed in angrily in response, expressing shock that Ms. Wasserman Schultz “would knowingly say something that is flat-out not true.” (more…)

Another brilliant dissection of the insufferable media nonsense. Some of Steyn’s best work.
MARK STEYN – As the week ended, Obama’s palace guard in the American media were demanding that every other Republican candidate distance himself from Donald Trump’s failure to correct, among thousands of attendees at his events, one who apparently is under the reprehensible illusion that the President is a Muslim.
Any candidate who plays this game with the Obamamedia is a fool. Assuming for the sake of argument that the questioner is genuine and not a plant (like, say, the 14-year old all-American schoolboy clockmaker who didn’t make a clock at all and is the son of a belligerent Muslim activist and perennial Sudanese presidential candidate whose brother runs a trucking company amusingly called Twin Towers Transportation), putting all of that to one side, there are several entirely reasonable responses one could make to the gentlemen of the press: (more…)

NPR has received some preliminary examples of the type of analyst intelligence that was skewed to create a more favorable opinion of President Obama’s foreign policy approach toward ISIS.
In one example the following is noted:

[…]  A military source described the evolution of one report that came out of CENTCOM’s intelligence shop. It was a dispatch on an ISIS attack in Iraq near the Syrian border. The initial CENTCOM report read, “Iraqi forces retreated.” It was sent back for reworking, the source said. Eventually that report came to read that the Iraqi forces had not retreated, but instead had reinforced another Iraqi position. The final draft suggested a strategic decision had been made. But that was not what happened, the source said — the Iraqi forces ran. A second source confirmed the account of the change in wording to put the Iraqi forces in a more positive light. (read more)

In what appears to be a profound sense of professional obfuscation, the head of U.S. Central Command, Gen. Lloyd Austin, told congress that despite the revisions and/or manipulations currently being investigated by the inspector general, the intelligence did not go directly to President Obama. (more…)

Coming to America; soon to arrive in a city near you!  However, not to worry, Secretary Jeh Johnson says the Obama administration will vet them “carefully”.

(Saint Louis) Thousands of Syrian refugees eventually bound for the U.S. will be screened “carefully” to ensure that none of them are terrorists, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Wednesday.
During a keynote speech at the Missouri college where Winston Churchill made his famous “Iron Curtain” speech seven decades ago, Johnson offered no clarity on how quickly the vetting of the 10,000 refugees from the war-torn country that the U.S. plans to accept during the coming year will be done, or whether it can be expedited.

Many people will look at this devastating sunlight upon the U.S Intel Community as a political embarrassment for the Obama administration.  However, I would disagree. 
This entire exposition smells more like a deflective shield targeted to give the White House an excuse for terrible Mid-East policy.   This “revelation” protects the White House more than it causes embarrassment; it gives Obama excuses for his failures…. and you’ll note this is surfacing at a time when Russia is entering Syria under the auspices of needing to fight ISIS, because the U.S. has failed.  There’s an obvious transparency to the timing…
(Via Daily Beast) More than 50 intelligence analysts working out of the U.S. military’s Central Command have formally complained that their reports on ISIS and al Qaeda’s branch in Syria were being inappropriately altered by senior officials, The Daily Beast has learned.
The complaints spurred the Pentagon’s inspector general to open an investigation into the alleged manipulation of intelligence. The fact that so many people complained suggests there are deep-rooted, systemic problems in how the U.S. military command charged with the war against the self-proclaimed Islamic State assesses intelligence.
