More Americans died at the hands of al Qaeda this weekend, without any evident rescue attempt by the Obama government.
But hey, we drone killed some other al Qaeda militants in Yemen.
Mitt Romney brought up the rise of terrorists in Mali during one of the debates. The media laughed at him. Bill Maher mocked him, and the ignorance of Obama’s voters at the same time. Let’s all laugh together at the next Afghanistan, only a whole lot closer to Europe.
Attacking the wealthy with higher taxes is having predicted effects.
Actor Jackie Chan chooses the strong horse.
Consider this an open thread. It’s going to be a long day.
“Let’s all laugh together at the next Afghanistan, only a whole lot closer to Europe.”
It should be noted that the Jihadist sacking and demolition of historic sites in Tombouctou is an even greater loss to the globe’s cultural heritage than the destruction of the buddhas in Bamiyan in 2000. However, while those received near universal condemnation at the time the current sabotage gets near silence from the UN, EU and others who would normally be concerned with protecting cultural legacies.
Form square.
A long day, yes, but four years ago today, we started counting down to a day when we hoped that this embarrassment would be gone. And we were wrong. Hope is not a strategy, you see. At least now, assuming that the Constitution remains in place, we can truly begin counting the days to that happy time when this polyp will, by force of law, be removed. And given the outrageous overreaches to which decadent second terms seem prone, maybe he’ll even be gone a little earlier. May we and our nation survive so long.
