Ya don’t say…  It’s as if the Obama cabinet departments have something to hide, or, well, something….

(Via The Blaze) The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services admitted in a Wednesday letter to the National Archives and Records Administration that one its senior executives, Marilyn Tavenner, likely deleted some of the emails subpoenaed by Congress ten months ago regarding the botched Healthcare.gov rollout.

The admission resulted in a scathing response from Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, who called the destroying of government emails a “violation of federal law.”

“Today’s news that a senior HHS executive destroyed emails relevant to a congressional investigation means that the Obama Administration has lost or destroyed emails for more than 20 witnesses, and in each case, the loss wasn’t disclosed to the National Archives or Congress for months or years, in violation of federal law,” Issa said in a statement. “It defies logic that so many senior Administration officials were found to have ignored federal record keeping requirements only after Congress asked to see their emails.”

Hypocrisy thy name is….   

(Via Washington Times) Actor Robert Redford is suing the state of New York for what he says are unfair taxes from the sale of the Sundance Channel.

Mr. Redford, a Utah resident, sued the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance in Albany County Supreme Court on July 30, claiming that he’s being doubly taxed on money his company made when it sold off its portion of the channel in 2005, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
New York is taxing the actor-director $845,066 plus $727,404 in interest owed — roughly $1.57 million — for the money he made in the sale, but Mr. Redford said he already paid taxes on the revenue in Utah. (more…)

Over a year ago it became obvious that Secretary of State John Kerry was going to force the world to recognize his value and magnificence.    After all, he has a legacy to create and time’s-a-wastin’ if he’s going to get bronze busts of himself mounted around the globe.  Remember Kerry the Buttinsky, or the Kerry collapse ?

Here’s the latest evidence of an ego on steroids.  The U.S. is NOT invited to attend the talks in Cairo.   Fatah el-Sisi has been diplomatic but direct in telling Kerry to stay away.   Alas…..

EGYPT – Washington announced on Tuesday that it might join the talks between Israel and the Palestinians brokered by Egypt with the aim of reaching a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.
“I think it is possible we participate in those talks (in Cairo),” US State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said.  “As for who, how or when, we still haven’t decided that,” Psaki added. (more…)

Yes, he really believes this.   In this recent speech to the African Summit leaders John Kerry tells the audience Africa should not start farms to feed its people.   Unreal.

Allow children to starve because they’ll be saved from the perils of a non-existent fear.

Thanks to a Nantucket resident we can ask: Is it really any wonder why Netanyahu and Abdel Fattah el-Sisi tell Secretary Kerry to stay out of the grown up issues?

I mean seriously, is there a better representation of how effeminate and metrosexual most male liberals are? And that doesn’t even elicit the conversation about how optics of a representative international figurehead can be broadcast throughout the world.
As if, someone couldn’t/wouldn’t say: “um, hey John, you might want to reconsider this before heading out in public“…..  Because if you’re comfortable riding a pink girls bicycle in chinos and Jesus Adidas during an errand run, well, you might just be a little too comfortable with the Hello Kitty backpack.    Here’s your sign !
Someone, anyone, please put the grown-ups back in charge.  This is really getting embarrassing.

Everyone knows there are professional pundits in the establishment GOP who’s entire existence is essentially dependent on maintaining a relationship with the power elites.
In the Mississippi Senate challenge between the establishment’s professional Alzheimer’s patient, Thad Cochran, and conservative challenger Chris McDaniel the desperation of pundit transparency is turning comical.
Against a bit of backlash from the pesky unwashed conservative less than’s, the Daily Caller wing (Tucker Carlson, Ann Coulter et al) decided to remain in the kitchen.   Still intent on service to the party however, they well trimmed the cucumber sandwich crusts, and dispatched Matt Lewis into the crowd carrying his platter of “white bread only” samples.
Lewis strolls around notifying everyone that he garnered inside Intel on the pesky racists in Mississippi:

Chris McDaniel’s team issued a press release late last week saying that the Mississippi GOP is “prohibited from recognizing Thad Cochran as their nominee for U.S. Senate in accordance with the rules of the Republican National Committee” — because Democrats participated in his election.

But a first draft of that same release, obtained by The Daily Caller, twice called out “black Democrats” as the culprits.

While both references to “black” were stripped out of McDaniel’s public press release, the “1st Draft” refers to “black Democrats” and talks about Cochran campaign soliciting “black Democrat votes.”   (link)

This is really a great example of how sunlight on truth can become antithetical when the media who find it have an opposing agenda.

(Via The Blaze)  A correspondent covering the Gaza conflict for a Finnish media outlet reported seeing a rocket being launched from Gaza City’s main hospital, Shifa, but later lashed out at the pro-Israel media for its “disgusting” use of her report as a “propaganda weapon.”
The report filed by Aishi Zidan of Finland’s Helsingin Sanomat noted that the rocket was fired from the backyard of the hospital. Israel has widely derided Hamas for what it calls a human shields policy, hiding its military assets and firing from behind civilian sites including mosques, schools and hospitals.

We swear we are not kidding when we say “Milli Vanilli”. He really is not intelligent. It’s all a ruse. This is the first affirmative action lip-syncing president ever.   Most often it’s only noticed when he doesn’t ask for help in pronouncing the lyrics.
“Michael and I”… Really? Good grief….

Can you just imagine what the media would do if George Bush said “Larry and I” ?

(Via Moonbattery)  We already knew the folks running Chipotle are barking moonbats, so ideologically deranged that they have claimed conspicuously nonexistent global warming will prevent them from serving guacamole. But this is over the top:

Close your eyes as you listen to the end of this video.

If the crowd chanting “all hail Hitler, all hail Hitler” were not Arabs, but instead white male skinheads, what do you think the political left would be saying about the group?
How would the Southern Poverty Law Center be describing the group?   What would the police be doing with the group?   How would the liberal media be describing the protest ?
