• Was It Against Uniform Protocol for the Marine to Hold Obama’s Umbrella?

  May 17, 2013 at 12:04pm

  In reply to Noah_fing-whey.

  A few thoughts:
  1) Had Obama been on time (the entire dog & pony show was, as usual, over 30 minutes later than scheduled; neither this clown nor his press secretary can EVER be on time), they would have missed the shower.
  Since the forecast was for showers perhaps in the future the White House could plan ahead and install temporary tent covers (like those used for weddings). Of course, that would require just a tad of pre-planning which we all know is not not a long suit with this administration.
  Why use Marines? Were there no civilian aides or interns willing to get wet? Yes, I realize that the Marine detachment opens doors and provides umbrella cover for guests arriving at the White House but this just smacked of a photo op to confirm that this president is still in firm command of our military; too bad he couldn’t bother to do that when Americans were being killed in Benghazi.

• How High Up Does This Go? New Report Implicates Washington Officials in IRS Scandal

  May 14, 2013 at 1:39am

  In reply to libertyordeath1974.

  ARTMOONEY…..Agreed. And what better time to do it then next year when the IRS will demand that we include with our tax returns the new form with the information (including our identification numbers) of our health insurance companies? I’d say that would kill Obamacare as well because I’m damned sure that the Republican clowns aren’t going to anything to stop THAT monstrosity which will ensure the economic downfall of our once great country. Hey Obama, Reid, Prlosi, and the rest of the Washington Circus; whom I choose to pay for my insurance is none of your damned business!

• Chris Matthews on Boston Bombings: ‘Domestic Terrorists…Tend to Be on the Far Right’

  In reply to JimCS.

  1) He has no credibility.
  2) He will always have a job at MSNBC.
  3) Who cares?

• Identifying Targets? Iowa Newspaper Publishes Interactive Map Showing All Public Schools With No Security Officers

  March 27, 2013 at 7:37pm

  In reply to CaptainD51.

  Agreed. The sooner more children are slaughtered in their classroom, the sooner the public outcry against ALL private ownership, the better. That, or the entire staff of this rag are roughly 30 points shy of reaching the moronic scale on the intellect scale.

• Nanny State Update: British School Bans Triangle-Shaped ‘Flapjacks’

  March 26, 2013 at 9:08pm

  In reply to letsbefrank.

  Uh, what happens when the students discover that if they take the square or rectangular cookie and cut them diagonally then they will be the proud owners of TWO of the evil triangular cookies? Or are geometry classes banned as well?
  On the other hand, it’s nice to know that all of the idiotic liberal “educators” aren’t solely an American product.
  We have absolute morons managing schools these days; it would be funny if it wasn’t so sad!

• ‘I Can’t Carry That All Day’: Middle Schooler Says She Was Forced to Haul Entire Contents of Her Locker as Punishment

  March 23, 2013 at 5:14pm

  Actually, I believe that you both are correct. The byline is Madeleine Morgenstern and she writes on The Blaze frequently and well. Let’s just chalk it up to making a timeline, even though the pressroom doesn’t apply here. On a side note, I agree with some of the other posters regarding this young lady and her parents; apparently they and the school have have issues. I’m no supporter of the Department of Education, the corrupt teacher’s union, and the liberal agendas of the majority of “Educators”, but I’m also aware that spoiled brats and coddling parents exist as well. The video leads me towards the latter as opposed to the former in this particular case/

• ‘I Can’t Carry That All Day’: Middle Schooler Says She Was Forced to Haul Entire Contents of Her Locker as Punishment

  In reply to BackToTheWall.

  Uh, try reading the story again…..

  “Ashley’s parents say she weighs 50 pounds, making the 20-pound backpack nearly half her weight.”

  Do the English.

• Is the Punishment These Parents Doled Out to Their Disrespectful Daughter Too Harsh?

  March 22, 2013 at 6:43pm

  In reply to Melvin Spittle.

  Melvin, I’m a little concerned that a few of the posters here were incapable of grasping your well written sarcastic comment. Although I appreciate what appears to their conservative support, I’ll just assume that they are younger generation supporters and likely the result of our fine public school system, and as such, lack the ability to appreciate your thoughts. Incidentally, I’m an “old fart” of sixty seven with only a high school diploma which, fortunately, meant a lot more in 1964 than it does now. Thanks for the laugh!

• Harry Reid Actually Uses Explosion That Killed 7 Marines as Opportunity to…Complain About Sequestration

  March 19, 2013 at 4:32pm

  In reply to Exidor.

  And where is the rebuttal from Senator McConnell and/or Congressman Boehner? Why are they not exposing this fool for the shameless political hack that he is? None of those Marines went through basic training since the Sequester because there hasn’t been enough time so lack of training wouldn’t be an issue and I’ll bet that there has been no reduction in staff at the accident site yet, so why are the Republicans not demanding to have him explain what the hell is he talking about? If the roles were reversed (McConnel leading the Senate) and he said something this stupid, the Democrats would be asking for his head, yet nothing but silence from the Republican leadership. And therein lies the problem………………….

• The Making of a Pope: 36 Pictures of Pope Francis I from Past to Present

  March 14, 2013 at 12:42am

  In reply to Tigress1.

  Agreed, Tigress, particularly if the American press actually can bring itself to honestly cover the future Pope (highly doubtful), it might be a great comparison to the current resident at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Unfortunately, I understand that Pope Francis is strongly against killing the unborn, so I anticipate the Pope Bashing to begin tomorrow on MSNBC.
