Obama’s Triple Crown of Scandals, Plus Gun Control Helped Kill Her Husband-Today on The Teri O’Brien Show, 5-19-13

There will be no Triple Crown winner, but we do have a troika of Obama scandals, all of which were in the news this week. This morning on CNN, a gleeful Jessica “Barack Just Smiled at Me!” Yellin, celebrated their latest poll, which shows that these messy questions about unethical, or even illegal, behavior by members of his administration has not diminished the endless love the American people have for the Dear Leader. She’d fit right in in North Korea. Some, including the members of the House Ways and Means Committee, who held a hearing last week about the IRS’ targeting of Tea Party and conservative groups, are less enamored. Former Acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller, who recently decided to move his previously scheduled exit to his cushy retirement up by a couple of weeks, responded to requests to know who initiated this policy with shoulder-shrugging, bored evasiveness. His demeanor said “Whatever. I don’t really care what happened. Let’s get this over with.” He couldn’t say. He didn’t know. He didn’t remember. Cue The Carpenters. This has only just begun. What do we know after this hearing? Some Republicans are opening talking “impeachment,” but is that really helpful? Is “scandal” really an agenda, especially when we learned last week that the House is close to a deal on “comprehensive immigration reform?” Short answer: no.

In response to the revelations about the 12 revisions of the Benghazi talking points, the White House decided to play along and pretend that they really are “the most transparent administration in history.” What was in these emails, and more, important, what wasn’t?

This week’s designated White House mouthpiece, the inarticulate Dan Pfeiffer, appearing as if he’s making a hostage tape, recites his memorized lies about both Benghazi and the IRS scandals. It’s no surprising that he would embarrass him yet again. Remember one of his greatest hits, involving that bust of Winston Churchill?

Plus, a very special 2nd Amendment Update, featuring Nicole Goeser, whose life changed forever on April 2, 2009, when her husband was murdered right before her and dozens of other people at a Nashville bar. How did gun control laws enable this brutal crime? How did it stop Nicole from possibly saving her husband’s life?

Tune in today for the rest of the story.

White House to Bob Woodward: You Will Regret Criticizing the One

Posted on by

I tweeted this morning about liberal media hero Bob Woodward’s appearance this morning on MS-NBC’s “Morning Joe.”

Woodward decries Obama madness on Morning Joe

Woodward decries Obama madness on Morning J

 

 

 

From Politico:

The Washington Post’s Bob Woodward attacked President Barack Obama on Wednesday, saying the commander-in-chief’s decision not to deploy an aircraft carrier because of budget cuts is “a kind of madness.”

“Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying, ‘Oh, by the way, I can’t do this because of some budget document?’” Woodward said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”“Or George W. Bush saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to invade Iraq because I can’t get the aircraft carriers I need’ or even Bill Clinton saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to attack Saddam Hussein’s intelligence headquarters,’ as he did when Clinton was president because of some budget document?” Woodward added. “Under the Constitution, the president is commander-in-chief and employs the force. And so we now have the president going out because of this piece of paper and this agreement. ‘I can’t do what I need to do to protect the country.’ That’s a kind of madness that I haven’t seen in a long time.”

The Dear Reader’s regime is not going to take this sitting down! So they threatened the legendary journo. This evening on CNN, Bob Woodward told Wolf Blitzer that the White House had threatened him. From Business Insider:

Bob Woodward said this evening on CNN that a “very senior person” at the White House warned him in an email that he would “regret doing this,” the same day he has continued to slam President Barack Obama over the looming forced cuts known as the sequester.

Mr. Hope, Change and Soaring Rhetoric turns out to be another slimeball Chicago politician. Who’da thunk it?

Thanks to our special guest Betsy McCaughey, author of Beating Obamacare: Your Handbook for the New Healthcare Law, for sharing some essential information about the federal government’s takeover of our healthcare system. Did you know that you might be headed for Medicaid next year? Did you also know that patients covered by Medicaid have worse outcomes than the uninsured? Did you know that even if you retain your private insurance, the federal government will review your doctor’s decisions about your care?

On February 15, I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing one of America’s leading experts on the 2nd amendment, David Kopel, and we heard Part 1 of the interview as part of this week’s 2nd Amendment Update. Part 2 will air next week.

Sunday Shows: the Regime sends buffoonish dullard/former Illinois GOP stooge Sec. of Defense Ray LaHood to CNN’s “State of the Union” and NBC’s “Meet The Press” to describe the parade of horribles that will befall us if we deprive the federal government of a single dime. Surprisingly (no, not really), hapless LaHood had no answer when Candy Crowley asked why he was warning of grounded planes and air traffic delays when (1) the FAA’s budget has increased $500 billion since 2008 and (2) the number of domestic flights is down 27% since 9/11, while the FAA budget is up 41%. Suggestion: if you want to get your congressman to wet himself, especially if he is a democrat, call and see if he can do what LaHood couldn’t or wouldn’t do; that is, answer these questions. Obama needs to stop whining about the sequester, since it was his idea, and he has spending the last week conducting a clinic on demagoguery, lying through his teeth about that fact, and the fact that any pain felt by the public will be because he is choosing it. He’s trying to tell us that he has no choice but to furlough meat inspectors and air traffic controllers because of a 2% decrease in the rate of growth rather than cutting out some bureaucratic bloat? PULEEZE!!

While both Democrats and Republicans slobber all over Hillary Clinton when she finally appears before Congress to try to explain what happened when 4 Americans were murdered in Benghazi on 9/11/12, an objective review demonstrates that the Obama foreign policy of “leading from behind” is a disaster. Ted Koppel, Bob Woodward and John McCain agree on that. Unless we’re counting frequent flyer miles, isn’t Hillary a huge failure? Except for that “beautiful voice” mentioned by Chris Matthews, of course. What about the obvious irony of Hillary Clinton, a woman who cut her political teeth by pursuing a sitting president for lying, now saying that it doesn’t matter if a president lies?

On yesterday’s show, during the segment in which I played the excellent responses by Texas Senator Ted Cruz to David “Howdy Doody” Gregory’s silly questions about the NRA ad exposing Obama as a phony, elitist limousine liberal, I mentioned this CNN report that I had seen earlier in the day. It aired again this morning. It was the usual slobbering drivel that you would expect, celebrating the wonderful family that the Obamas have managed to create, despite the stress of living at a level of luxury unheard of in all of human history. Here’s the portion, in which we learn–I hope the you are sitting down!–that Malia does her own laundry–Gasp! Also, we learn that they watch only 2 hours of television a week. I wish I could get away with that, but I watch so you don’t have to.

(By the way, was delicious to watch, and to hear, Sen. Cruz talk about the wealthy “outsourcing” their security right in the face of David “The Laws are for the little people” Gregory, so if you missed the show, please check it out.)

Obama, Caught in a Lie That Will Haunt Him, Temporarily Rescued by Candy Crowley

Posted on by

As we have frequently noted here and on the Teri O’Brien Show, during any of these presidential debates, the Republican candidate must fend off two Democrat opponents, the other candidate and the moderator. Last night’s tag team featured Barack Hussein Obama and Candy Crowley. Even The Hill admits that she performed well for her democrat team. In a story headlined “Moderator Crowley helps Obama rebut Romney on Libya,” they write:

President Obama had the help of moderator Candy Crowley during Tuesday’s second presidential debate when rebutting an argument from Mitt Romney about his administration’s response to last month’s attack in Libya.

Romney and congressional Republicans for weeks have been lambasting the president for taking too long to qualify the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi that left four Americans dead on Sept. 11 as a result of terrorism.

In response to a question about the assault, Obama said he had called it an “act of terror” during remarks the next day in the Rose Garden, and Crowley vouched for him.

Romney was visibly surprised by the president’s answer and appeared to believe he’d caught the president in a lie.

“You said in the Rose Garden, the day after the attack it was an act of terror? It was not a spontaneous demonstration? Is that what you’re saying?” Romney said. “I want to make sure we get that for the record, because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror.”

“Get the transcript,” Obama replied.

Crowley then broke in, saying: “He did in fact, sir. So let me — let me call it an act of terror …”

“Can you say that a little louder, Candy?” Obama shouted.

Of course Barack Obama used the words “act of terror.” He was talking about the original 9/11 attacks during those Rose Garden remarks. If that weren’t the case, there would have been no need for Susan Rice to go on those 5 Sunday shows on 9/16/12, and try to sell that ridiculous story that four Americans were murdered because of a silly YouTube video that almost no one saw.

After the debate, Candy admitted that Mitt was correct. Also from The Hill article:

In an interview after the debate on CNN, Crowley said Romney’s broader point that the Obama administration didn’t initially call the Benghazi assault a terrorist attack was correct.

“He was right in the main, I just think he picked the wrong word,” Crowley said.

A timeline compiled by The Hill shows that National Counterterrorism Center director Matthew Olsen was the first member of the Obama administration to call the Libya assault a terrorist attack, and did so during congressional testimony on Sept. 19. The next day, White House press secretary Jay Carney said it was “self-evident” that the assault was terrorism.

“Picked the wrong word?” Are you kidding me? Facts are facts, Candy. I would say that you should be embarrassed, but I don’t think it’s possible to embarrass these Lame Stream Media weasels.

Obama and his team may believe that they dodged a bullet and put this issue behind them, but I think this lie will come to haunt them in the next debate, which just happens to be about foreign policy. His pal Candy is on the record as saying that Mitt was right. Even the reporters at The Hill can see that Obama’s story isn’t true. Revising history is an important strategy from the leftist playbook. Unfortunately for them, this incident is fresh in our memories, and it’s not going to work this time.

Defending the Constitution: Show Notes, 7/15/12

We often hear that we must enact amnesty for illegals because they do jobs that Americans simply won’t do. In this edition of the show, we focused on average citizens doing what gutless weasels in Congress won’t; that is, standing up for our precious Constitution. With the blatant lawlessness of the Obama administration on display every single day, the need for patriotic Americans to take action is more important than ever.

First, we heard from the extraordinarily courageous former Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, who spent 5 months in prison for the crime of questioning Barack Obama’s eligibility to hold the office of President of the United States. He is a modern-day Patrick Henry and his book Officer’s Oath is well worth reading.

In the second hour, we heard from dogged citizen journalist David Codrea, Gun Rights Examiner and publisher of The War on Guns: Notes from the Resistance joined us to discuss the ethics complaint he and Mike Vanderboegh recently filed with the D.C. Bar, seeking the disbarment of Eric “Stonewall” Holder.

The embarrassment that is the Obama campaign continues to demonstrate that the message they took from their 2008 victory is that the American public is as dumb as a box of rocks by staking their future on the claim that our country’s current economic misery has something to do with what Mitt Romney was doing in 2000, and darkly suggesting that he may even be a felon.

Never doubt me: no matter how many years tax returns he releases, the Obama campaign, both on and off the payroll, the latter sometimes called “journalists,” will ask for more information to use to distract us from Obama’s failures. On two separate Sunday shows, O bots suggested that Bain Capital needs to release the minuts of its Board meetings!

Which is creepier: the return of Anthony “Tweet My Privates” Weiner or what I witnessed over the weekend, an 80-something man reading Fifty Shades of Gray in a bookstore cafè?
