Snotty French Angry Over EU Reports In English

Ever since the defeat of Napoleon the French have had a problem with the English.  The goofy country, desperate to cling to their dying language has a whole agency tasked with 'keeping French pure'.  What is pure French?  Who cares.

The French are pretty full of themselves and feel inferior to an invented 'Anglo-Saxon' boogey man in Europe.  It is understandable the French would feel inferior.

The history of the country is a mess.  France fought on BOTH sides of World War II for example.  And De Gaulle never missed a chance to regularly insult the nations that bailed France out of their German death-grip.

France like Britain are both ex-empire and vaporizing.  But at least Britain is taking the decline with a bit of grace.  Not France.

The Brussels-based French-language press corps got their coiffures in a crunch over the release of the EU's annual report, why? The important work was done in ENGLISH.

In classic liberalese, a reporter for the French paper Liberation penned a sting eMail whining, "The right to be informed in one's own language about the social and budgetary sacrifices demanded by the EU executive is a minimum right."  Notice the overuse of the word 'right'.

As France skids behind Greece and Spain in the big 2012 EU crash the tiny toad-like republic fades into history. And when a country winks out like ancient Rome and Greece did, the language blinks out too - viva la see you later!

Golden Gate Bridge Of Death

San Francisco straddles two major fault zones and is seated prominently in the middle of the largest blue state awash in red ink and junk bonds in the USA.

The city is home to people from every country and whole sections of the town are named for the denser ethnic groups like Japan town, China town, and of course the infamous Gay town - the Castro District.

Last week San Francisco blew a small fortune setting off fireworks from the Golden Gate Bridge on it's 75th year.  Few revelers likely gave much thought to the thousands that have used the bridge to end their lives.

Some 1600 people have taken their last plunge from the bridge.  And about 40 per year join them.  And really nothing much can be done to stop them.  Oh yea, eleven guys died building the thing back in 1938, falling briskly thru the safety nets.

Since the entire area is due to experience 'the big one', namely a quake as large as the one that destroyed the entire city back in 1908, the bridge has been undergoing an expensive retrofit to bolster its joints and struts.

And the other big bridge - the Bay Bridge is being replaced entirely.  Why people don't jump from the Bay Bridge seems an odd exclusion by the suicide crowd.  The Bay Bridge is much bigger, much longer, and just as high.

Well, something more grand and dramatic we suppose about joining so many others in the cold depths below the Golden Gate.  After all, if your gonna check out, best do it in the same nasty spot everyone else does.  Conformity in suicide, ah the city by the bay.

Yet Another Asshole Working At MSNBC

Liberals are brain-dead born genetically prone to a permanent fog of stupidity and arrogance.  And MSNBC has a full stable of these screwballs.  Every day one of them utters and sputters something that re-proves the axiom - to be liberal is to be lame.

Enter stage left, Chris Hayes.  The bespectacled, Keith Olberman wannabe and nerd hosting an MSNBC show with his name on it. The block-head managed to vomit in his own mouth an obtuse diss to vets on Memorial Day eve.

To wit: 'I think it is very difficult to talk about the war dead and the fallen without invoking valor, without invoking the words "heroes...I feel... uncomfortable, about the word because it seems to me that it is so rhetorically proximate to justifications for more war.'  Oh, he  'feels' uncomfortable that ordinary guys suffer and spill their blood to protect his right to get on air and spit on them. Remember, liberals 'feel', they don't 'think'.

Hayes deepened the wound by adding, 'I don't want to obviously desecrate or disrespect memory of anyone that's fallen, and obviously there are individual circumstances in which there is genuine, tremendous heroism: hail of gunfire, rescuing fellow soldiers and things like that...But it seems to me that we marshal this word in a way that is problematic.' He then added: 'But maybe I'm wrong about that.'

Hey Chris, you are wrong - as wrong as anyone can be and still be breathing the free air vets provided to you without expectation of praise or thanks.

Chris Hayes is below contempt. Just another little fart in front of a camera whose own life is worth less than the electricity it takes to power those cameras allowing him to make a public ass of himself.

To the HEROES in the US Military, THANK-YOU from the bottom of our hearts.  A grateful nation does not forget and honors those that defend its shores as the true inheritors of the greatest nation yet to form on the surface of planet earth.

Chris Hayes can take his little hate train and leave the country the first minute he raises enough bus fare.

McAfee Founder Broke And On The Run

John McAfee had it all.  The software company bearing his name made him a $100 million bucks and a long life living large.   Then poof it was all gone!

McAfee started as a software engineer during the 1970s and by 1990 was writing early anti-virus software out of his garage in Santa Clara, CA.  The company grew quickly as the Internet turned into the Web and virus attacks became all the rage.

First called McAfee Associates, then Network Associates, then back to McAfee again - the turbulent high growth years made him wealthy, and the recession of 2009 made him 'poor'.  By poor we mean he lost $96 million leaving him with a paltry $4 million.

Then the real trouble started.  First losing his assets which included properties in five states and a ton of cash McAfee turned up in Belize starting a new venture to make antibiotics.  Oddly, turning his software virus skills into killing biological virus instead. 

On May 2, 2012, McAfee's property in Belize was raided by the Gang Suppression Unit. The arrest was for unlicensed drug manufacturing (meth lab) and possession of unlicensed weapons. McAfee was allegedly with his 17 year old Belizean girlfriend. All charges were later dropped. McAfee is suing the Belizean Government for false arrest  But the damage is deep, and the setbacks insurmountable.

At 66 and the target of both government and online hackers, McAfee may have run out of luck.  The fall was big, and the end bitter - but hey, he has a 17-year-old girlfriend, a tan, and a bunch of beach clothes.  How bad can it be?

Real Deficit Real Jobless Rate Real Bad

Both Democrats and Republicans play a nasty little game gaming the important numbers in the economy.

The jobless rate computed by US Labor does not include those no longer looking for work (worst 30 months in history).

And the record budget deficits racked up for each of the past three years does not include Social Security and Medicare shortfalls.

State governments, by federal law, are required to include pension liabilities in their reporting.  Anyone surprised the Feds exclude themselves from their own accounting laws?

On to the real deficit.  Congress excludes entitlement liabilities reducing the real deficits reported.  Reversing this under 'normal' accounting practice each household owes a full $42,054 - 4x the smaller number.  Given the median household income is $49,500 it is clear that the deficit alone is sinking the ship.

The 'official' deficit reported under funny-money rules for last fiscal year was $1.3 trillion.  The real number under real rules is $5.1 trillion.  Thus, instead of the debt hovering at $15.8 trillion the actual number is closer to $30 trillion!  Still listening?

Obama has gleefully chosen to ignore the full financial disaster looming in Social Security, Medicare, and the hot rate of spending he refuses to reduce.   This is part of the rub with the Ryan budget which does begin to address the issues.

This is not new news.  And it will continue to be old news for as long as the voters along with the politicians continue to kick that can, man.

Romney Declares War On Teachers Unions

Just ahead of the critical vote in Wisconsin on June 5th Mitt Romney is drawing a line in the sand over education.  Union power is on the line.

Mitt Romney is correctly standing up for school choice today.

Teachers unions are singularly responsible for the decline of public education  The AFT and NEA unions have a monopoly over public schools, and that power has been horribly abused over the decades.  The result is a disaster for the public schools, taxpayers, and more importantly the kids who are ill-served by incompetent teachers protected by unions.

“Here we are in the most prosperous nation, but millions of kids are getting a Third World education. And America’s minority children suffer the most,” Romney told the Latino Coalition. Latinos say education is a bigger issue for them than immigration policy. The Democrat party is a dead-end if that is their true priority.

“President Obama has been unable to stand up to union bosses — and unwilling to stand up for kids,” Romney noting Obama places unions’ campaign donations ahead of the needs of the kids.

In the face of failing public education, Obama has called for lowering standards instead of firing incompetent teachers.

Mickey, Snow White and Goofy Strike Over Pay

Trouble is brewing in Disneyland, Paris.  The 'humans' that put on the big character costumes playing the roles of Mickey Mouse, Snow White, Goofy, and Grumpy are walking off the job. The beef? Pay and sexual harassment.

It seems one of the players was recently accused of harassing a female patron.  The incident led to a firing, but the guy was brought back due to 'lack of evidence'.  The other cartoon characters disagree and insist the offender remain out of uniform and off the reservation.

The crew are also part of a French union, and as union's do, threw in pay increases for extra flavor.  None of the details are known, but is it really surprising a labor strike at a Paris Disneyland is in play?  The French work ethic is non-existent even in a place designed to give kids a little joy.  After all, labor has it's price.

‘It’s worst for the very young children who aren’t that interested in the rides,’ said Louise Scott, a mother-of-four. ‘They dream of meeting their cartoon heroes, and want to be pictured with them, but there just aren’t any around.’

The unions are adamant despite the outcry from parents who come from the UK and all around Europe to bring their kids to see their childhood fantasies in oversized glory. ‘It’s bizarre that Disneyland characters are going on strike,’ said Eileen Holmes, who was in the park with two young kids. ‘You expect to see French lorry drivers and fishermen on strike, but not cartoon characters!’

 Well, in the real world Mickey Mouse has kids to feed, and Snow White is a busy mom herself so we guess the kids eager to meet them will just have to wait for them to come back from their labor strike.

Joyless Jobless Rate Jumble

Sadly, the US Labor Dept. is reporting a bogus jobless rate that most people will take as gospel.  In a good economy the issue would be a yawn, but in dire times the voter really needs to know the truth - and is not getting it from the government.  No conspiracy theory, simply a calculation assumption gone wrong.

The current US Labor Dept. national jobless rate is 8.1%.  The ratio does NOT include workers that have QUIT looking for work and have fallen off the jobs radar.  The workforce 'participation rate' is a better indicator of the problem.  The participation rate is the percent of the overall labor workforce WORKING.  That number is 61% and falling.  A full 39% of the workforce is idle.

The weekly jobless claims and weekly jobs added are also being gamed as each week following the reported numbers are later 'adjusted' downward.   Since Obama has been in office at least 8 million have lost their jobs, and wages have dropped about 11%.  Over half of those graduating from college since Obama was sworn in are jobless.

The five states with the highest jobless rates continue to be: Puerto Rico 15.2%, Nevada 13.0%, California 11.2%, Rhode Island 11.0%, and Mississippi 10.4%. Find your state here.

Once the EU vaporizes, the US GDP will be driven down from its meager level of 2.2% and pressure on jobs and the economy will begin anew.  Long term jobless benefits and the food stamp program are out of gas.  The debt is so high now, that ANY new spending, even to prop up those in need will be unattainable.

The country and the Obama regime are holding their collective breath 'till the November election.  And remember, we get to do the debt ceiling AND the Bush tax cuts all over again in December.

Leg-Tingler Chris Mathews Jackknifes On Jeopardy

Chris Mathews is the poster boy for arrogant Obama toe-lickers.  And the white-haired goon loves to bash Sarah Palin.  As we often say on this blog - Karma Is A Bitch.  And oh man, has Karma come to visit the leg-tingler from MSNBC.

In the summer of 2010 Mathews said of Sarah Palin, “Well do you think cute will beat brains? ” and “Do you think she’d do better on the questions on ‘Jeopardy’ or the interview they do during a halftime?”

Fast forward to yesterday. Mathews appeared on a special Jeopardy show himself, called 'Power Players.'  The dope finished dead last getting spanked by CNN's Lizzie O'Leary, and Obama's ex-spokesboy Robert Gibbs.  And as an added bonus Mathews exposed himself as a halfwit during most of the show ending in punctuated nervous audience laughter.

Mathews endless gaffes, mistakes, wrong answers, and fumbling format foibles were topped-off with this gem. The category "6-Letter World Capitals" and the answer "St. Basil's Cathedral is there."  Host Trebek reminded the audience the category was "6-Letter World Capitals."  Astonishingly, button bonehead Matthews rings in and spurts, "What is Istanbul?"  The first part of wrong is that 'Istanbul' is EIGHT letters, not SIX.  Then consider that even school kids know that St. Basil's is in the middle of Red Square in Moscow.  But not the Moron From MSNBC.

Maybe Mathews can give Palin a call and BEG for some coaching?  Wait, never mind.  Mathews is obviously too vapid to feed himself let alone take instruction from someone who is ACTUALLY intelligent.  Mathews must have shards all over the floors from rocks tossed out of his glass house.

Netanyahu Punches Obama In The Guts

Obama and Sarkozy had a grand time bonding and carping about Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu at the G20.  Refreshing the memory:  Sarkozy snarked,’I don’t want to see him (Netanyahu) anymore, he’s a liar.’ To which Obama double snarked: ‘You’ve had enough of him, but I have to deal with him every day!’

Karma is a bitch and what goes around comes around, especially in politics.  Sarkozy is about to be booted from his job, Obama is facing the same fate in November. Netanyahu is getting the last laugh.

Benjamin Netanyahu is calling early elections so that he will be free to deal with Iran’s nuclear threats this September-October, a full year ahead of schedule. Netanyahu is positioning Israel for action given Obama will be paralyzed by the election in the USA.  Netanyahu has Obama by the nads, and he is gonna make sure Obama can't squirm out of it.

The Obama Whitehouse is busy trying to avoid their abysmal record, and cleaning up yet another mess in the Chinese dissident fiasco.  The April jobs report knocked the wind out of the stock market again today. Obama is said to be 'shrugging' off the bad news.  As the Muslim Brotherhood solidifies its takeover of Egypt, it now enters Libya in a big way - Obama's backing of Arab Spring was also endorsed by Osama Bin Laden.

Even oil prices are dropping due to lack of demand and jobs.  Obama can't win.  Running on fumes and facing a fall attack by Israel on Iran the regime seems to be facing the same kind of challenge jobless millions face.  Karma Karma Karma - sing it with me Barry.

Pandemic Killer Flu Paper Published

The H5N1 bird flu has been genetically modified to become air-borne and able to kill millions of people.

 The 'work' was done at the Erasmus Medical Centre in Rotterdam - 'just to see if it could be done'.  The US National Institutes For Health (NIH) funded the work.

To date, just 600 humans have gotten the H5N1 flu; in its wild state nearly impossible to contract. Of those, 60% died.

"We have discovered that this is indeed possible, and more easily than previously thought...," Dr Fouchier, team leader.

WARNING: The WHO and NIH have jointly agreed the work be published - find it in current issue of the science publication 'Nature'.

1 In 7 On Food Stamps Up Over 135%

Obama's face is finally on the currency.  Witness the shocking increase in Food Stamps just during Obama's tenure alone.

The numer of people on the program has increased 70% under Obama. Spending on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) increased 135% or $78 billion last year alone, the CBO reports.  The total cost is well north of $275 billion.

“Nearly 45 million recipients, one out of every seven U.S. residents, received SNAP benefits in an average month in fiscal year 2011,” CBO notes.  The total cost for all entitlements in the 2010 spending just completed was about 60% of the total.  Defense accounts for just 19% and deep cuts are now underway at the DoD.  Clearly, under Obama, the country is sacrificing its defense and putting millions on a government check.

The Food Stamp disaster is a symptom of a larger problem.  Poverty.  To qualify for the program, in general, a family must not have assets, income, or cash exceeding $2000.   And though there are nearly 50 million Americans already on the program, millions more are 'waiting' in an application pipeline.

 The country is imploding in a lack of jobs, and crushing poverty.

Online Pedophiles Choose Victim 'within two minutes'

The internet is a massive hunting ground for pedophiles.

A troubling study from Belgium examining the logs of convicted child molesters is reveals the insects spend up to six hours a day in online 'fishing trips' where peppering hundreds of kids until they find one willing to interact with them.

The predators no longer spend time to 'groom' or convince victims to divulge their locations.  Pedophiles know there are millions of kids online so they troll for 'low fruit' by making an immediate pass at a target and if rejected or resisted, move quickly on to another one.

These animals are able to avoid detection largely because the internet is vast, and the number of online places they hunt in are many. By branching out into gaming platforms, such as Xbox Live, pedophiles have a nearly infinite place to exercise their evil.

 The best defense say researchers is 'With younger children, set up basic parental controls on all computers and don't let children under 13 join social networking sites. Additionally, 'With older children, it's important to have a dialogue with your child about potential dangers but without scaring them.'

Scaring, bullying, threatening, or simply restricting your kids will usually invite a dangerous insubordinate response. The trick is to give your kids the freedom to play, but the tools to recognize, resist and avoid an attack. Keep the lines of communication open!

(note. Pedophiles are coddled by left-wingers who view perpetrators as victims. Pedophiles are sick and not curable. Push for States to pass chemical castration, and drug therapies that neutralize their fantasies. Germany has this approach, and it works with great success.)

Fox News Bob Beckel Farts F-Word On Live Air

Fox News goes to goofy lengths employing brain-dead liberals like Juan Williams, Bob Beckel, Jemu Greene, Marc Lamont Hill, and Lani Davis. Why? Because Fox is under the mistaken impression these knuckle-heads offer reasonable counterpoint.

The F-bomb came out on Hannity last nite. The 'perp' is Bob Beckel.  Beckel's scowling, angry, bull-headed, small minded, spin-oriented, putz behavior is his 'shtick'. “You say that Head Start is a failure, you don’t know what the f***k you’re talking about,” Beckel barked

Beckel pouring more of his own urine on the wound.

“I just can’t stand right-wingers. They’ve just got their mouths running all the time,” Beckel explained.  Can anyone detect the sulphuric smell of irony?

When Hannity suggested Beckel apologize, Beckel said, “I don’t apologize.”

“Yes you do. You just cursed on the air,” said Hannity.

“I’m not gonna apologize,” Beckel whined childishly.

The right thing to do is to fire the fat-nancy of course, but sadly the network likes the clown and will keep him unless the FCC says otherwise.

After the show Beckel got on Twitter and groveled . “I apologize to anyone who heard me on Hannity. I honestly thought we were off air. I just may not be cut out for the TV business. Peace.” We agree. Bob is not cut out to wander around in civilized society, let alone on live air.

Mob Wins One In Florida As Prosecutor Folds

The mob is winning in Florida. And when the evidence is finally laid out and shows Zimmerman was the victim and not the perp, well, they may lynch him anyway.  The mob has to be fed.

Race is all the rage in the post civil rights era. The 'N' word is still around, but blacks themselves utter it the most frequently.  Black on black crime given a pass because it's all in the family, so the theory goes.

The charge of 2nd Degree Murder is a non-winnable chunk of red meat for the mob. At best, Zimmerman's self defense might be involuntary manslaughter, but murder?  My my my.

Well, at least Zimmerman can come in out of the cold now, remember, he had a bounty placed on his head - the Holder DOJ endorsed it with their silence.  Zimmerman has retained an attorney based in Orlando, and intends to enter a plea of not guilty.

Political Correctness reaches right down and buries anyone that gets between the vigilantes and thier blood lust.  Remember, if this can happen to Zimmerman, it can happen to YOU...

Dying: Teen Sold Kidney For An Apple iPhone

Apple Computer is a cult not a company.

Millions buy Apple products in a trance-like way reacting to hype and buzz Apple gets free from left-wing media.

Apple makes marginal products, overpriced, allegedly using slave Chinese labor.  And now it has gone too far.

A Chinese teenager known only as 'Wang' from the poor southern province of Anhui sold a kidney to pay for an Apple iPhone and iPad — and now he’s dying from the effects of renal failure.  The boy will die because the only treatment is a kidney transplant and donors are rare and time is short.

 In all of China, about 1.5 million people are waiting and hoping to be one of the 10,000 transplant patients who get a kidney each year.  Obviously, most will die long before they get one.

Wang was paid $3,489 for selling his kidney.  The 'broker' that talked the kid into the surgery made $35,000 on the black market re-selling the organ.  iPads cost $499, iPhones $629 in the US. Five people, including a surgeon and a broker reportedly have been indicted and charged with intentional injury in the case.

Apple has no complicity of course, but given they are propped up by kids like this, it would be a grand gesture for the company to fly Wang to the US, and scour the world for a kidney.  Make sure he gets the best medical treatment possible - at least that, what do you say Apple?

Lottery Liar Mirlande Wilson Finally Caught

How pathetic does your life have to be to pose as a lottery winner for a few days of notorious attention?

Ask Mirlande (muhr-land-ee) Wilson, Haitian immigrant and McDonalds counter worker who said she bought the winning ticket with a 'found' dollar.

The real winners finally came forward today - none of them is Mirlande.

Mirlande's fabrication appeared an hour after the record lottery closed. The obese McDonalds employee got away with the deception because the 'real' winners waited to claim their prize.

A few days ago Mirlande said, 'I have no idea where it (lottery ticke) is. I'm not sure I have it. I'm still looking for it. I haven't even looked in my uniform pants yet.' Seems kinda casual considering the ticket is said to be worth over $105 million before taxes. And as it turns out, it was.  The miserable mom never had the ticket.

Why she did it still stuns the senses. Mirlande did become the 'show' as she intended. Even Mirlande's daughter (one of seven offspring) says the attention-seeking mom had 'refused' to show her the ticket.

Mirlande, this blogger predicted did turn out to be what most suspect - a pathological liar. A pathetic creature whose real life needed spicing up. Unafraid to disgrace herself in front of an entire world, and her own daughter, even stretching the tale with blasphemous statements insisting she is leaving the discovery of the ticket in the hands of God: 'It’s a blessing from God. If it’s meant to be, we’ll [find and] claim the ticket.'

A coworker told the press, 'I don’t believe her. I didn’t believe her from the beginning, she’s always been strange...she’s an attention seeker. She likes to have all the attention on herself.'

Now finally the world knows the truth about Mirlande Wilson.  Guess what?  No one cares Mirlande.  Go back to Haiti, the USA can't use you..

Obama Dares The Supreme Court To Nix Obamacare

Obama was billed as a US Constitutional law expert, even allegedly teaching the subject. But that was then.

As president, Obama has consistently shown a general disdain for the constitution. Barry even recently posited that the constitution is 'flawed' because it lacks specific language to allow redistribution of wealth, a socialist bent.

True to pattern, Obama misdirects that the Supreme Court is 'not elected' and so has no real say over his unconstitutional mandate. Sharing power is making Obama extra crazy.

“We are confident that this will be upheld because it should be upheld,” Obama pronounced.  It should be upheld?  That's it?  The lack of constitutional compliance is not important?  Wow...this one even sinks below Biden's gaffe standards, laughing.

Obama digs a little deeper, “overturning the law is an unprecedented, extraordinary step...since it was passed by a majority of members in the House and Senate.”  Wow! Obama must have been sick the day they discussed Separation Of Powers.  The court is to lay down not only to him, but to the congress as well.

The court will do what it always does.  The independence of the Supreme Court is by design - a check and a balance on the mistakes voters sometimes make when electing loose cannons like Obama, Pelosi and Reid.

Augusta National All Male Membership Attacked

Augusta National is the US top golf course and home to golf's top tournament - the Masters. The rub? The national treasure has been a private 'male member only' club since it was founded in 1933 by Bobby Jones.

Augusta has been under attack because it excludes women from membership, and from wearing the coveted green member jacket. Women are allowed to play on the pristine course, but only as a guest or spouse of a member.

IBM is a major sponsor of the club and the Masters. The past four CEOs of the company were members. IBM just appointed a woman as CEO. Her name is Virginia Rometty. Virginia likes scuba diving, not golf.

But that is beside the point according to Martha Burk who tried and failed ten years ago to force Augusta to admit women as members. Why is Martha hot for Virginia to become a member? Because the club needs IBM and Burke is a frothing feminazi who needs an 'angle' to get her way.

'What IBM needs to do is draw a line in the sand by saying "We're either going to pull our sponsorship and membership and any ancillary activities we support with the tournament, or the club is going to have to honor our CEO the way they have in the past",' Burk said. Anyone wanna bet Burk is not a stockholder in IBM?

Virginia is not commenting. She was hired to run IBM not be a punching bag for Martha Burk and her private obsession with the club.

The story really illustrates the rabid nature of some to screw with tradition. If Burk wants women to join a golf club, let her start one of her own or contact one of the thousands of clubs that do let women in - oh wait, Burk doesn't golf either.

Obama: The Siberian Candidate

Obama's hot mic whispers directed at Russian president Medvedev is more than an isolated and troubling incident.

Obama says there is no secret deal being struck with Russia to sacrifice Europe's defenses. But remember, Obama gave up Poland's missiles just days after entering office.

Even Pravda has endorsed Obama for reelection. Pravda boldly wrote last week: Romney 'Out-Of-Touch, Out-Of-Date, Unelectable.'

Reasonable people do not engage in conspiracy theory. But could Obama be a Siberian Candidate? The parallel with the fictional story of the Manchurian Candidate is stark.

The notion that Obama could or would work against his 'own' country begins with the debacle around the unsolved mystery surrounding his birth. Consider Obama's gaffes regarding Israel and his lack of support for student dissidents in Iran.  Coincidentally, Obama has stated he wants to reduce the US nuclear arsenal by a crippling 80%.

Is there a pattern that add up to more than a conspiracy theory?

"This is my last election...After my election, I have more flexibility" Obama offered Medvedev. "I will tell Vladimir (Putin)" replies the Russian president.

The Manchurian Candidate was from China. The plot is to swap a surgically altered Chinese military officer for the sitting POTUS. Is life imitating art?

Obama has a trail of failure wider than any president in history, from race baiting, attacking freedom of religion, Holder giving guns to drug lords, to doubling a crushing debt and wasting the money on unconstitutional laws.

If Obama is not a Siberian Candidate, then why get so cozy with Russia?
