General News and Comment
Israeli Election
Update: U.S. Intervention Appears to Backfire: Likud takes
its largest lead yet, shortly after news broke of the Obama administration
trying to sandbag Netanyahu.
Excerpt: Israeli polling published Friday seems to indicate
that the Obama administration’s push to remove Binyamin Netanyahu from power
and to replace him with the more pliable Yitzhak (“Buji”) Herzog is backfiring.
The intervention was first reported by the left-leaning newspaper Haaretz just
over a week ago.
Important: Putin could attack Baltic
states warns former Nato chief. Vladimir Putin could mastermind a
hybrid attack on a Baltic state to test whether Nato would mobilise, warns
Anders Fogh Rasmussen. By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard
Excerpt: Vladimir Putin has dangerous ambitions beyond Ukraine and aims to test Western resolve in the Baltic states , the former head of Nato has warned. Anders
Fogh Rasmussen, the former secretary-general of the Atlantic alliance, said the
Kremlin’s true goal is to shatter Nato solidarity and reassert Russian
dominance over Eastern Europe . “This is not
about Ukraine .
Putin wants to restore Russia
to its former position as a great power,” he told The Telegraph. “There is a
high probability that he will intervene in the Baltics to test Nato’s Article
5,” he said, referring to the solidarity clause that underpins collective
security.
How To Manage
Putin: Russia’s ‘Escalation Dominance.’ By James Kitfield
Excerpt: As a car drove a visiting American delegation
through Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine last
month, former U.S. Ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder was struck by the many
national flags hanging in town squares and from private buildings and homes.
Such a degree of national unity was a remarkable turnabout in a country whose
divisions between a more European-oriented west and a Russian-speaking east
were part of the psychic landscape. “That’s what [Russian President
Vladmir] Putin has wrought with his invasion: he’s largely unified a fractious
population of 40 million Ukrainians, the majority of which are mad as hell and
now increasingly want to be part of the West,” Daalder said in an interview.
Excerpt: Foreign Policy magazine this week announced the
results of its 2014
Ivory Tower survey of 1,615 international relations scholars from
1,375 U.S.
colleges. One question they were asked was: “Who was the most effective U.S. secretary
of state of the past 50 years? The winner? Nobel Peace Prize winner Henry A.
Kissinger, who was secretary for four years during the Nixon and Ford administrations.
... Then, dead last, is John Kerry. He got a total of two votes of the 660
scholars who responded. (I'm stunned. Not that he was ranked last. I've had a
very low opinion of Kerry since his faked Winter Soldier project to launch his
career. And since he tried to set me up on his TV program when I was a senator.
But I'm stunned the Washington Post would run this. ~Bob)

Not Just Decoration -
The Serendipitous Collision of Warfighting and Painting. By Andy Weddington
Excerpt: A reader of this forum, an elected judge (whom
I've not met but resides in a state we once lived) who happens to be married to
a Marine (Vietnam
veteran), has an interest in painting. Not quite a week ago we exchanged a few
rounds of notes about a landscape abstract (new territory in the pursuit of
simplifying) I painted recently while on holiday escape to a remote cay.
Comment on
"Woman aborted baby because it was a boy."
This is sick; and also murder, as far as I am concerned. I
have compassion for women who have an abortion because of rape, incestuous or
otherwise but not at all as a means of birth control and never beyond the 1st
trimester. Having compassion does not mean I approve, but understand the
reasoning behind the act. It would be better to have the child and let someone
adopt who cannot have children, but not everyone is mentally suited for that
course of action. -BFM
Excerpt: Thirteen Iowa Democrats wearily took their seats
here this weekend and discussed among themselves the source of their angst:
Hillary Rodham Clinton. “I’m utterly tired, tired of the Clintons and the whole
establishment,” said Carol Brannon, 71, a retired nurse. Anne Kinzel, 57, a
former health-care lawyer, nodded sympathetically. “The hacks think Hillary is
entitled to be president,” Kinzel said. “I think she is one of those people who
has lost the sense of why they are in politics.”
Is Hillary Really
Inevitable?
Excerpt: It looks as if Hillary Clinton is going to wait
until summer to formally announce her inevitable presidential campaign. Her
team originally looked at April as a jumping off point, but is now waiting
until July. Team Hillary will use this time to work on assembling staff (and
keeping them from resigning)
and developing her platform. Because she hasn’t had enough time to
finish that homework.
Excerpt: David Brock on Monday abruptly resigned from the
board of the super PAC Priorities USA Action, revealing rifts that threaten
the big-money juggernaut being built to support Hillary
Clinton’s expected presidential campaign. In a resignation letter obtained by
POLITICO, Brock, a close Clinton ally, accused
Priorities officials of planting “an orchestrated political hit job” against
his own pro-Clinton groups, American

Funny: Embattled Brian Williams, Hillary Clinton
should swap war stories. By John Kass
Excerpt: NBC News anchor Brian Williams found himself the
story Thursday, his credibility seriously threatened because he falsely claimed
he had been in a helicopter hit by a grenade during the Iraq war. Can't you just picture
them, Hill and Bri, holding court in a hotel bar on the campaign trail,
regaling reporters with their crazy (yet completely untrue) war stories? Clinton can retell her lie about how she braved snipers in
Bosnia ,
perhaps throwing in a fake laugh or two, the devil-may-care laugh of beret-wearing
French resistance fighters in bad movies. Her eyes crinkle just so and the
high-pitched cackle is released and you just know it's sincere.
Scott Walker’s surge — in two charts. By Aaron Blake
Excerpt: Scott Walker, we declared last week, is the
first "it" candidate in the 2016 presidential race. But
how exactly did he get that way? ... But this is the social-media age. Check
out the chart below, which uses Facebook analytics. The data show how many
people on Facebook mentioned Walker

Obama’s 332-Page Plan
To Control The Internet
Excerpt: Ajit Pai, the sole Republican Commissioner on the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC), inferred in a Tweet that President
Barack Obama’s secret, 332-page “Net Neutrality” document is a scheme for
federal micro-managing of the Internet to extract billions in new taxes from
consumers and again enforce progressives’ idea of honest, equitable, and
balanced.
The Most Transparent Administration in History: Obama
administration won’t release IRS targeting documents
Excerpt: The Obama administration is refusing to publicly
release more than 500 documents on the IRS’s targeting of Tea Party groups.
Twenty months after the IRS scandal broke, there are still many unanswered
questions about who was spearheading the agency’s scrutiny of
conservative-leaning organizations. The Hill sought access to government
documents that might provide a glimpse of the decision-making through a Freedom
of Information Act (FOIA) request.
Obama’s Cancerous
Leadership and the Vortex Feeding It
Excerpt: Obama's legacy-absent a major shift in foreign
policy-is clearly established. Taking editorial license with Winston
Churchill's famous quote lauding Royal Air Force pilots in World War
II for defeating Germany's Luftwaffe and applying it to Obama and his
leadership team: "Never in the field of human conflict has so little been
done for so many by so few."
Excerpt: The president’s ambivalence regarding arms for Ukraine has
separated him from many of his traditional Democratic supporters, including
some who served in his government and now are questioning his priorities. Obama
has often seemed reluctant to plunge too deeply into a conflict that he doesn’t
view as a major threat to the U.S.
homeland or the nation’s security. Some of the president’s hesitancy could also
stem from the high priority he’s placed on reaching an agreement this year with
Iran
to end its nuclear program. Putin and Russia
have played an important role in keeping the pressure on Tehran during the delicate negotiations. (He
reminds some of Jimmy Carter, but he reminds me of Scots King John Balliol, known
as "Toom Tabard." ~Bob)
The Politics of Envy.
By Jim Geraghty, Morning Jolt
I’d argue that the politics of envy are a weapon too
unstable, unpredictable, and dangerous to really be useful to the one who
wields it. Because ultimately, just about everybody in elected office lives a
life that appears luxurious to the average American. .. A presidential campaign
that somehow utilized “the politics of envy” would slam into the fact that the
candidate -- just about any serious candidate -- makes more money, has a bigger
net worth, and lives a more lavish lifestyle than almost all of the voters
they’re attempting to win over. It’s going to be comical and delicious to see
Hillary railing against the same Wall Street bankers who she just charged
$200,000 per speech. And she will; she won’t be able to help herself. The
Democratic base will command it. And she already dabbled in bashing those
other rich people, back in 2012: "There are rich people everywhere, and
yet they do not contribute to the growth of their own countries."
Snarker-in-Chief: No
one — least of all the American people — is exempt from our president’s snark. By Victor Davis
Hanson
Excerpt: President Obama is well known both for ad hominem
dismissals of his supposed enemies — everyone from Fox News to the Tea Party to
Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity — and for his evocations of nefarious straw men
who, he claims, if left unchecked, would uninsure the poor, pollute the
environment, hurt the illegal immigrant, and wage perpetual war abroad. But
Obama’s snarky putdowns and condescending afterthoughts are a particularly
disturbing subset of these rhetorical devices, used by him in the grand world
of diplomacy as well as in often petty domestic contexts.
Former Drug Czar,
Federal Prosecutor Argue Against Marijuana Legalization: ‘The Science Does Not
Support It’
Since when do Democrats care about science (or economics) if
their base wants something?
Important: The War on Marriage
President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society program launched
the infamous "War on Poverty," but in a new report from the NCPA,
Senior Fellow Devon Herrick says Great Society
legislation ignored and thwarted the most effective antipoverty program:
marriage. Marriage rates have fallen dramatically since the Johnson era --
while 84 percent of adults aged 30 to 44 were married in 1970, the figure had
dropped to 60 percent by 2007. For some demographics, the drop was even more
dramatic: while 62 percent of black women in that age group were married in
1970, just one-third were married in 2007. There are a number of reasons for
the drop in marriage rates, but the government's role cannot be ignored. The
U.S. tax code penalizes marriage, especially for low-income earners who are
better off forgoing wedding vows in exchange for living together -- at least
when it comes to receiving federal subsidies: The poverty level is $11,490 for
individuals and $15,510 for married couples. Two individuals living together,
therefore, qualify for larger subsidies than a married couple would. Consider a
couple, each of whom earns twice the federal poverty level ($23,340 annually).
Were they to marry, their household income would rise to 300 percent of the
poverty level, limiting their eligibility for government benefits such as food
stamps, health insurance subsidies and more. Obamacare also penalizes marriage
-- again, health insurance subsidies for exchange coverage are more generous
for individuals than for couples. The couple mentioned above earning twice the
poverty level would qualify for a subsidy of $1,151 each. If they marry, they
would qualify for a subsidy of just $845. If the cohabitating couple has a child
and were to marry, they would owe $2,857 in higher taxes each year. On the
other hand, were the couple to remain unmarried and the mother apply for food
stamps for herself and her child, she would qualify for an additional $1,800
that would be unavailable to her were she to marry. (It is worth subscribing to
the Daily policy Digest at NACP.org and supporting their work. ~Bob)
Unintended
Consequences of Cigarette Taxes: Black Markets and Smuggling
Excerpt: A whopping 58 percent of the New York cigarette market consists of
smuggled cigarettes. It is no coincidence that its cigarette tax (at $4.35 per
pack) is the highest among the 50 states. New
York City also imposes a $1.50 per pack tax. Since
2006, the New York
tax rate has risen 190 percent, and the smuggling rate has risen 62 percent.
Similarly, Illinois
raised its cigarette tax by $1.00 in 2012. From 2012 to 2013, the smuggling
rate in Illinois
rose from 1.1 percent to 20.9 percent.
Obama Advisor Admits Obama Lied About Gay Marriage. By Conn Carroll
Excerpt: Former-Senior Advisor to President Obama David
Axelrod admits in a new book that Obama lied about his opposition to gay
marriage in order to become president. "Opposition to gay marriage was
particularly strong in the black church, and as he ran for higher office, he
grudgingly accepted the counsel of more pragmatic folks like me, and modified
his position to support civil unions rather than marriage, which he would term
a 'sacred union,'" Axelrod writes in his new book, Believer: My Forty Years in Politics.
(Not news. As they say in the GEICO ads, "Everybody knows that."
Revealing that Obama told the truth would be news. the only thing this reveals
is that Obama thought black anti-gay-marriage ministers and their congregations
were dumb enough to believe him. ~Bob)

Jindal on Anti-Common Core Moms: ‘I Wouldn’t Bet Against Them.’ By Kelsey Harkness
Excerpt: While promoting his new education platform today in
Washington , D.C.
Excerpt: We have argued that foreign policy will be a bigger
than usual issue in 2016 for presidential candidates,
both because the president has made such hash out of it and because his former
secretary of state is the likely Democratic nominee. While it is easy to
prepare a talking point or two, giving a paragraph
or more about a complicated topic reveals the depth of a
candidate’s knowledge. Even then, how do we tell if the
candidate is regurgitating a canned speech?
Excerpt: As I noted yesterday,
the March deadline for the “political framework” in the P5+1 talks is
fish-or-cut-bait time for Democrats who said they would vote on the
Menendez-Kirk sanctions bill if there was no such deal covering all the
relevant issues. But Iran ’s
supreme leader complained about an interim deal and now — wouldn’t you know it?
— the administration is backpedaling. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki
let on that the “deadline” is more like an aspiration.
Excerpt: I loved the James Robertson story. Who couldn't
love a story about a guy whose work ethic is such that he'd walk 21 miles a day
to and from his work...and never be late or miss a day of work in ten years. America
loved the Robertson story as well. A young college student set up a "go
fund" for James and donations began pouring in....to the current tune of
$350,000 dollars. And a Detroit
auto dealer just gave James a new Ford Taurus. All of this good will is
remarkable, and certainly makes James Robertson happy. But, like all of life,
there is a hint of tragedy in this story. You see, James Robertson's star
shines brighter these days because he's such a rare exception, among his race,
as well as the general populace. The American work ethic has eroded so
dramatically that, when we find someone who values hard work, we make a
celebrity of him. (In Detroit ,
they have probably made a target of him. ~Bob)

him back a little souvenir. The memento, a program from the funeral, hangs on a
wall in Mr. Sharpton’s nondescript offices above Midtown Manhattan. “To Rev.
Sharpton,” Mr. Obama wrote. “A fellow warrior for justice!” (It should have
said, "A fellow liar for juice." Sharpton's lie don't hurt as many

Excerpt: The Tawana Brawley case that captivated New York in the late
eighties is a shocking reminder of the toxic mix racial exploitation and
personal ambition can produce. The New York Times and Retroreport.org have
just released a new 15-minute documentary on the despicable hoax, which
should be required viewing for the NBC News executives who are heavily invested
in rehabilitating a key culprit of this loathsome episode: the Rev. Al
Sharpton. (NBC--They hire a lot of liars, don't they. ~Bob)
Obamacare/Government Healthcare News
Measles, Vaccines and Autism. By Thomas Sowell
Excerpt: The key false claim was that the vaccine for measles
caused an increase in autism. This claim was made in 1998 by a doctor writing
in a distinguished British medical journal, so it is understandable that many
parents took it seriously, and did not want to run the risk of having their
child become autistic. Fortunately, others took the claim seriously in a very
different sense. They did massive studies involving half a million children in Denmark and two million children in Sweden . These
studies showed that there was no higher incidence of autism among children who
had been vaccinated than among children who had not been vaccinated.
EDITORIAL: Taxpayers
hit twice for Obamacare site
Excerpt: It is bad enough that taxpayers are forced to pay
for the expensive government health care exchanges established by the
Affordable Care Act – not to mention those who must pay fines for not being
insured – but taxpayers in California
are hit doubly hard by the hefty advertising budget used to promote the
convoluted system. The state’s health care exchange, Covered California,
announced in September that it was dedicating $94 million to promote itself
during the open enrollment period, which ends Feb. 15. ... So despite the lofty
advertising budget, which included special efforts to boost enrollment among
Latinos and African Americans, and even if there is a last-minute surge, it
appears that Covered California will fall well short of its goal. This does not
bode well for the exchange, which is already projecting a $78 million deficit
for fiscal year 2015-2016, now that $1 billion in federal funding has been
exhausted.

Excerpt: The sweet smell of success for the medical-device
industry is wafting over Capitol Hill. News from
Senator Orrin Hatch is that the Senate will take up repeal of the
medical-device excise tax. This is a tax of 2.3 percent on most medical devices
that was passed as part of the Affordable Care Act to fund Obamacare. AdvaMed,
a trade association representing the medical-device industry has just published
another survey of
its members, which reports that...the tax has led to employment reductions of
approximately 18,500 industry workers and will lead to forgone hiring of 20,500
additional employees over the next five years. The total impact of the tax on
medical technology industry employment is approximately 39,000 jobs. Additional
jobs will be lost in companies providing supplies or services to the industry.
Forty-six percent of respondents said they would consider further employment
reductions if the tax is not repealed. On the positive side, 71 percent of
respondents said they would reinstate forgone hiring if the tax were repealed.
"You're Greener than Gore" News
'Settled Science'
and Data Tampering. From The
Patriot Post
Arctic sea ice was supposed to have melted by now. Polar
bears extinct. Sea levels at devastating highs. Civilization on the cusp of
socioeconomic disaster. Alarmists' predictions never materialize, but doom is
looming, they assure us. Interestingly, the diabolical Leftmedia never question
the various narratives, but when it comes to evidence of scientific fraud they
act like it's simply part of the process necessary to narrow down the
preconceived day of Climate Armageddon. The federal government is actively manipulating global temperature data to fit
the narrative, which London Telegraph writer Christopher Booker reminds us
"is the biggest science scandal ever." In fact, he
notes, "When future generations look back on the global-warming scare of
the past 30 years, nothing will shock them more than the extent to which the
official temperature records -- on which the entire panic ultimately rested --
were systematically 'adjusted' to show the Earth as having warmed much more
than the actual data justified." The science is "settled," the Left
lectures. So long as you ignore massive collusion and fraud.
Debunking Fracking
Myths
Excerpt: Arthur Herman of the Hudson Institute says
criticisms of fracking are overblown. While opponents argue that fracking can
contaminate groundwater, Herman says fracking takes place thousands of feet
below the aquifer (a body of rock from which water can be extracted), posing no
risk to drinking water. Additionally, he notes that there are no documented
cases of groundwater contamination, yet there are thousands of fracking wells
in the United States and its
neighbor Canada .
Similarly, opponents contend fracking exposes people to dangerous chemicals
such as benzene. In fact, Herman says the fluid used to fracture rock is more
than 99 percent sand and water -- the risks associated with contact with
chemicals such as benzene or methane, for example, is not any higher than in
other industrial jobs.

circumstances: Muslims from among America's allies (Saudi Arabia) and from its
enemies (Iran); Muslims from economically rich nations (Qatar) and from poor
nations (Somalia and Yemen); Muslims from "Islamic republic" nations
(Afghanistan) and from "moderate" nations (Malaysia and Indonesia);
Muslims from nations rescued by America (Kuwait) and Muslims from nations

Excerpt: Jordan

Obama Vows Justice
After Isis Kills American Hostage Kayla Jean
Mueller
I actually laughed out loud when I read the headline. How
many times do we hear of justice vowed? Benghazi
anyone? ~Bob
Excerpt: In his interview with Vox, Barack Obama said that
terrorism is overblown by the media: “It is entirely legitimate for the
American people to be deeply concerned when you’ve got a bunch of violent,
vicious zealots who behead people or randomly shoot a bunch of folks in a deli
in Paris ,”
Obama said. “It is right and appropriate for us to be vigilant and aggressive
in trying to deal with that–the same way a big city mayor’s got to cut the
crime rate down if he wants that city to thrive.” ... The more novel problem is
his disgusting description of the deliberate targeting of Jews as a random
shooting. It’s as infuriating as his administration’s insistence that the Fort Hood Paris to hold a Kosher market hostage, and
then executes Jews in accordance with his ideological and religious dogma, it
is not random violence or street crime. Period.
Excerpt: Wuppertal ’s
synagogues had been destroyed on Kristallnacht. By the time the war was over,

three Muslim men had thrown six Molotov cocktails at it. The Jews of Wuppertal
however have nothing to worry about. Judge Jörg Sturm found that the attack was
not anti-Semitic, but had only been a way of bringing “attention to the Gaza conflict”.

there was a feeling of the need to maintain the Asian vote to preserve Labour’s
