Update
Tuesday, December 23,
is my one year anniversary
Of going to the hospital and coming home with someone else's
lung. (I say a prayer for the donor and family every day.). They told me going
in that the one-year survival rate was 80%. Unless something goes wrong by
Tuesday, I made that cut. Which didn't look likely back in May. They say the
five-year survival rate is 50%. We shall see. But if you bet against a
Marine--ask for odds. ~Bob

Carry
On, Marines, Carry On! By Andy Weddington
Excerpt:
A poet? Hardly. One, freestyle (as a real poet later identified the
effort) from January past, have I to credit. Titled 'Still' - the
contrasting definitions (not moving/continuing) of the word so intrigued - the
prose honored my (still) Dad. For today, another try. Poetry? Befitting
Christmas. But struggle I, to paint with words. Thus, 'Carry On, Marines, Carry On!'...
From the left: 4 maps that show why Democrats
shouldn't dump the South
Excerpt: The Democratic Party's dismal showing in the 2014
elections caused progressives and the party faithful to look for answers, or at
least for someone to blame. A handful of pundits decided the Democrats'
problems could be traced back to one region of the country: the South. ...
Democrats are struggling in the South, but it's even worse in other parts of
the country. For example, while Democratic candidates for U.S. Senate lost by
an average of 18 points in the South, they were walloped by an average of 26
points in states in the Great
Plains. That's in line with past election results: President Obama's worst
states in 2008 and 2012 (map below) were in the Great Plains, which Gallup
surveys reveal are among the most conservative. But for some reason,
we're never treated to post-Election Day screeds from Northern pundits about
the Great Plains being a cesspool of
"prejudice" and "resentment."
Obama: North Korea
Excerpt: I think it was an act of cyber-vandalism that was
very costly, very expensive. .... But, you know, we’re going to be in an
environment in this new world where so much is digitalized that both state and
non-state actors are going to have the capacity to disrupt our lives in all
sort of ways....But that’s something that I think we can manage through as long
as public [and] private sector is working together. (Scary. Wonder what the
response would be if Hollywood had the gumption to make a movie with a plot
about a Muslim Trojan becoming POTUS to start WWIII and turn citizen against
citizen, citizens against police and military who protect us, and import
hundreds of thousands from countries who hate our way of life and have no
desire to "blend"? Think someone would bankroll that one? And how
would POTUS treat them? (Think drone.) --Barb. And Pearl
harbor was an act of ship vandalism, not war. But that was when
Democrats like FDR had nerve. ~Bob)
Sexist and stupid--a twofer! That
time Obama called on only women at a press conference. By Nia-Malika
Henderson
Excerpt: President Obama did something remarkable on Friday.
He held his last press conference of the year, and the only people in the
entire press corps who were called on to ask questions were women. Yes, this
was on purpose; it had to be. (Reverse discrimination doesn't end
discrimination, it brings retaliation and makes it worse. And political
reporters will retaliate. I know. ~Bob
President Obama likes
James Flacco a lot, whoever that is.
Excerpt: He also said that he loved the film's actors, Seth
Rogen and James Flacco.
Wait, who is James Flacco? The satirical film actually stars
James Franco. Joe Flacco happens to be a quarterback for the Baltimore
Ravens. (If Bush said...oh, never mind. ~Bob)
White House Says
Courts have NO Power to Review Obama’s Decision-Making
Excerpt: Over the past six years, Obama has repeatedly taken
it upon himself to decide what laws he would enforce and what ones he doesn’t
want enforced. The first ones that come to mind are the Defense of Marriage Act
and immigration laws. Then there are other laws that Obama decided to alter and
change on his own. This would include immigration laws and the Affordable Care
Act to name just a few. The drafters of the US Constitution purposefully wrote
it to keep law making powers out of the hands of the President. Those powers
were reserved for Congress who was supposed to do the will of the people, but
we know that doesn’t happen anymore either. (If the courts gainsay Obama, they
are guilty of the crime of Lèse-majesté, a serious crime that can invoke the
death penalty. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A8se-majest%C3%A9

Why War Must be Studied. By Jon Solomon
Excerpt: A colleague recently pointed me to LGEN
H. R. McMaster’s excellent Veterans Day speech at Georgetown University last
month in which he argued that the scholarly study of war is central to the
prevention of war. I've excerpted some of his most eloquent observations below,
as they speak for themselves: There is a tendency in the United States to confuse the study
of war and warfare with militarism. Thinking clearly about the problem of war
and warfare, however, is both an unfortunate necessity and the best way to
prevent it. As the English theologian, writer, and philosopher G.K. Chesterton
observed, “War is not the best way of settling differences, but it is the only
way of preventing them being settled for you.” As George Washington, who
addressed Georgetown
students in August 1797 observed, “To be prepared for war is the most effectual
means to promote peace.” One of the patterns of American military history is to
be unprepared for war either because of wishful thinking or a failure to
consider continuities in the nature of war—especially war’s political and human
dimensions… (The study of war doesn't make you want to engage in it. Duh! But
some egghead intellectuals can only see it that way, and that leads to disdain
for those in the military, and a readiness to find them to be lovers of death
and destruction. This is silly and counterproductive for a society. The
speech General McMaster made is a true classic, so you might want to click on
that link and read it in its entirety. --Del )
Lawyer for
convicted Fort Bragg
Excerpt: The lawyer for a former Fort Bragg officer convicted of murdering two Afghanistan nationals
says the Army might not have prosecuted the officer if it had done a more
thorough criminal investigation. Former 1st Lt. Clint Lorance is serving 20
years for ordering his soldiers in July 2012 to shoot three men when they were
riding a motorcycle near his platoon in a Taliban-controlled area of Afghanistan .
Defense lawyer John N. Maher says records have surfaced since last year's
court-martial that indicate that one of the three Afghans had connections to
bombings and terror networks. (His mother said something like, "So I
get the notice that my son is alive, but he has been sentenced to 20 years for
'murder" when he was doing his job and saving his paratroopers. If he had
not done his job, I would be getting the notice that he is dead, but a 'hero.'"
Contrast this with POTUS, who sits in his office picking names to get droned
with no repercussions, while looking at the Nobel Peace Prize. Anyone figure
this scenario out yet? --Barb)
Important: Budget experts: Move Tricare beneficiaries
to Obamacare
Excerpt: The Defense Department could slash its enormous
health care budget by requiring Tricare beneficiaries not on active duty to get
health care coverage through Affordable Care Act exchanges, according to
several current and former congressional budget experts. In the past several
budget cycles, the Pentagon has sought to reduce its $52 billion health budget
by asking Congress to approve cost-savings measures that include increased
Tricare fees for retirees, fees for Tricare For Life beneficiaries and
cost-shares for active-duty families. (I suggest they try this first for
retired federal civilian employees, especially Congress-Critters. The retired
vets will be okay. They can renounce their citizenship, leave the country, then
sneak back in illegally and be fully covered. Kipling: "O it's Tommy this,
an' Tommy that, an' "Tommy, go away"; But it's "Thank you,
Mister Atkins", when the band begins to play." ~Bob)
Excerpt: “Please tell me how you would rate the honesty and
ethical standard of people in these different fields — very high, high,
average, low, or very low?”(Very high/High. Nurses: 80%. Doctors: 65%. Police
officers: 48%. Lawyers: 21%. Congress-Critters: 7%. ~Bob)
Welcome to China and America U.S.
Excerpt: FOR ALL the focus on maritime disputes in the South
and East China
Seas , there is an even greater peril
in Asia that deserves attention. It is the
rising salience of nuclear weapons in the region. China ’s
military buildup—in particular its growing capabilities to blunt America ’s
ability to project effective force in the western Pacific—is threatening to
change the military balance in the area. This will lead to a cascade of
strategic shifts that will make nuclear weapons more central in both American
and Chinese national-security plans, while increasing the danger that other
regional states will seek nuclear arsenals of their own. Like it or not,
nuclear weapons in Asia are back. (Another
situation steadily developing in the world that just doesn't look good for the
future. The rulers of China
can pretty much do whatever they want to invest in nuclear capability and
advanced missile technology that will make it difficult for anyone to want to
face off with them. And then they can proceed to throw their weight around in
the region and try to expand their influence across all of Asia .
Not a good prospect at all. We can only hope their own internal problems will
someday cause the system to fail and chaos to descend there, which will
distract them from ideas of expansion. --Del )
Southern Regional
Presidential Primary Heading Toward Reality. By Todd Rehm
Excerpt: For most of 2014, Georgia Secretary of State Brian
Kemp, a Republican, has been talking up the notion of an “SEC
Primary" that would move a number of Southeastern states’ presidential
primaries to March first 2016 to enhance the region’s clout. The addition of
other Southern states not part of the SEC football conference could mean a
larger role for the former Confederacy in the selection of both parties’ nominees.
The Democratic Party has been nearly eradicated across the South, as all the
Governor’s mansions and United States Senate seats except in Florida
and Virginia belong
in GOP hands and Republicans
control every state legislature in the Deep South.
Excerpt: Plenty of people who go on wild drinking binges end
up with sound reasons to avoid repeating the experience: painful hangovers,
lasting embarrassment, ruined relationships, encounters with police. But that
doesn't stop some of them from doing it again. Maybe these are the same people
running the federally backed mortgage companies. (Bush asked Congress several
times to reform Freddie and Fannie before the crash. The leftist Dems,
including Obama, always blocked reform. Barney Frank said the mortgage giants
wouldn't cost us a nickel--they cost billions. Why do they do it? Last time,
the folks running Fanny Mae made millions, while the average citizen lost his
shirt in his home. Then they blamed "predatory lenders" for
implementing the law. They never learn because results don't matter, only
ideology, so the destruction of the middle class isn't their fault, though
black homeownership was higher before the CRA than it is now. ~Bob)

Excerpt: Actually, “mistake” is the polite word used by
Berta Soler of the Ladies in White, an astonishingly courageous group
of women who march each week in support of political prisoners. “Betrayal” was
the term used by several others, who asked why Mr. Obama had chosen to lift
economic restrictions and dispatch an ambassador without requiring the “significant steps toward democracy” he once said must
precede liberalization. (Basically, we are set to give away the store to Castro
and the Communist Party of Cuba while obtaining nothing good for the Cuban
people, and abandoning all those suffering under the regime. One more great
marker for Obama's presidency that isn't really anything remarkable. But it
sounds good when played nicely with sound bites. --Del )

W. Surprises Kids in Children’s Hospital with A Warm Christmas Visit
Excerpt: With Christmas right around the corner, former
President George W. Bush decided to do something special for a children’s
hospital.
Worth Reading
Excerpt: Has there ever been a president more eager to make
concessions to vicious regimes than Barack Obama? The opening of diplomatic
relations with Cuba
is the latest and, one fears, not the last in a string of preemptive
concessions. Obama, with his blend of hard-left prejudices and vaulting
solipsism, has sought throughout his presidency to atone for what he and his
party view as America 's
past sins. That was the essence of the "reset" with Russia , which included betraying two of America 's European allies, Poland and the Czech Republic , who had been
scheduled to receive ground-based antiballistic missile systems. Though Obama
is fond of saying "the Cold War is over," and even mocked Mitt
Romney's concern about Russian behavior by sniffing, "The Eighties called,
and they want their foreign policy back," it is Obama himself who seems
fixated on reenacting the Cold War -- except this time, the U.S. loses

JESSICA CHAMBERS:
Teen Murdered Immediately After Local Blacks Called For Rape & Burning Of
White Women. By Doug Giles
Excerpt: One week before, and on just the day
before Jessica Chambers was carjacked and burned to death, certain blacks among
her intimate circle and acquaintance were involved in Facebook exchanges
wherein calls for the rape and burnings of white women and
children, especially the families of white police officers, were posted.
Although not a police officer himself, Jessica Chambers' father is an employee
of the Panola County
Excerpt: Here’s what is happening: Black students in Minneapolis schools are
10 times more likely than white and Asian students to be suspended. According
to the Justice Department and Bernadeia Johnson, there is no explanation for
this except blatant racism. The stats, they say, prove it: Black students are
suspended at rates far higher than their proportional population. Ergo the
statistical analysis shows that teachers are racists even though Asian students
are suspended at lower rates than whites. (Blacks also commit almost 50%
of the murders in the US ,
mostly of other blacks whose #blacklivesdon'tmatter, though they make up only
13% of the population. Should a black gangbanger who guns down a black child in
a drive-by shooting be released because 13% of the murder convictions that year
are already of blacks? That said, blacks should not be treated more harshly
than whites either. But if blacks know they cannot be suspended, the decent
majority of black students will be overwhelmed by the black thugs, and their
education will get worse. Once again, the problem is culture, not race. As
British psychiatrist Theodore Dalrymple points out in his excellent book, Life at the Bottom, the same pathologies
exhibited by the black underclass in American cities are exhibited by the white
English underclass in English cities. ~Bob)

Religion of Peace News
Worth Reading : U.S.
Excerpt: One out
of three African-American inmates in U.S. prisons convert to Islam while

prison. The Huffington Post reported an estimated 35,000 – 40,000 inmates convert
to Islam each year, and that 15 percent of the total U.S. prison population or 350,000
inmates are Muslim. This is more than 18 times the national representation of
Muslims in America , reported to
be 0.8 percent. Prisons are churning out converts to Islam who are taught they
are righteously entitled to control the religion, speech, and dress of family,
co-workers and strangers.

them children — in a school massacre. Meanwhile, a Pakistani prosecutor said
the government will try to cancel the bail granted to the main suspect in the
2008 Mumbai terror attacks — a decision that outraged neighboring India and
called into question Pakistan's commitment to fighting militancy.
Excerpt: The US

Excerpt: As the West experiences a rise in the sort of
terror attacks that are endemic to the Islamic world—church attacks, sex-slavery and beheadings—it is only natural that the same mainstream

especially against Christians and other minorities under Islam, would also
conceal the reality of jihadi aspirations "over here."

the tragic and deadly saga in Sydney Australia over the last 24 hours has been
astounding. At the time of writing, the lead story on the
BBC website is of course about that very tragedy, in which an Islamist
fanatic took a random group hostage in a cafe, ultimately killing two of them. He
did this in the name of Islam. But you wouldn't get that impression if you
started to read the BBC's lead story, which astoundingly managed to avoid
mentioning the words Islam, Islamic, Islamist, Muslim, or any derivations
thereof for a full 16 paragraphs.

Embedding with the
Women who are Kicking ISIS A$$. By Susannah
George
Excerpt: Every morning when veteran fighter Lt. Col. Nasreen

martyr poster. Snapped on the front lines outside Kirkuk just days before she was killed, Rangin
Hamlawa, 26, dressed in classic beige peshmerga fatigues and holding a sniper
rifle, stares hard into the camera. (The Kurds have been the victims of attacks
from all sides, the Iraquis, the Turks, the other Arab lands, for centuries. They
are almost like the Jews of the Muslim world, but they have become, by sheer
necessity, very tough people. And they don't have a lot of territory, so every
foot of it is precious to them, and they will fight like tigers to keep what
they have. The ISIS barbarians will take their
heads off as fast as they can, considering the Kurds to be traitors to
"real Islam", and the Kurds understand about fanatic enemies who want
to slaughter them all. So as things get nasty, the women volunteer to fight as
well. Since the supply lines are short and the land is what they know already,
they don't have to go into battle like our guys, carrying 80-90 lb loads. This
makes it more practical for women to be engaged in the fight, certainly as
snipers like this woman's daughter was. (Russian women snipers were active in
WW2) If there is anyone in the world we should be supporting generously, it's
the Kurds. Let's hope Obama and Congress will see it that way. --Del )
