Politico Tries To Rewrite History,
Giving Obuma's Bad Choices On Morsi Cover:
Obuma Was "Easing Away" From Morsi

(That's Horsesh!t... Muslim Pres. Obuma has been,
and continues to try to be, Morsi and the
Muslims Brotherhood's biggest supporter.)

http://inagist.com/all/352489607541174272/

According to:http://www.politico.com/politico44/2013/07/obama-deeply-concerned-by-egyptian-militarys-removal-167603.html?hp=f2

Apparently, one pathetic last-minute speech by Eqypt's Mohammed Morsi was sufficient to convince President Barack Obama, who has spent several days and untold amounts of worldwide capital defending the Muslim Brotherhood leader's staying on the job in the face of what may have been the largest pro-democracy demonstrations in human history.

Politico frantically tried to run interference for the Obama opportunistic change of heart today, running an item which was apparently called "U.S. Eases Away from Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi." The item was up so briefly that it was quickly replaced, while the headline just mentioned still remains in the browser window's title bar.

How pathetic.

CNN: Muslim Brotherhood spokesman Gehad El-Haddad just confirmed
his account of Morsy's arrest to CNN by phone.

Presidential guards arrested Morsy at the guards' headquarters,
El-Haddad told CNN. He described it as "house arrest."
He added that Morsy's presidential team was "entirely
put under arrest as well."

Massive budget cuts mean some military bases can't afford Independence Day fireworks shows. One military mom said "It's like the Grinch stealing Christmas."

WASHINGTON — The Fourth of July won't have a patriotic boom in the sky over some military bases because budget cuts and furloughed workers also mean furloughed fireworks.
Independence Day celebrations have been canceled at the Camp Lejeune Marine Corps Base and at the Army's Fort Bragg, both in North Carolina. The annual July Fourth celebration also has been scrapped at the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Albany, Ga.

The reason is money — namely the lack of it.

The failure in Washington to follow up a 2011 budget pact with additional spending cuts meant $85 billion across-the-board cuts that began in March. Budgets tightened, the military took a major hit and many federal workers absorbed pay cuts through forced furloughs.

When the decision was made to forgo fireworks at Camp Lejeune, the commanding general, Brig. Gen. Thomas Gorry, said the cancellation would "ensure that we can mitigate the fiscal challenges we are currently facing."

Last year's Independence Day at the base cost about $100,000, including $25,000 for the fireworks. The big issue is paying the overtime to personnel for security, transportation, logistics and safety. Base officials said they couldn't justify paying overtime when federal workers are losing pay while furloughed.

Brandy Rhoad Stowe says the fireworks at Camp Lejeune always were spectacular, and she said that she and her kids, ages 3 and 9, will miss them this year.

"I know fireworks might seem silly to other people," Stowe said in an interview. "But what is the Fourth of July without fireworks?"

Her husband is a master gunnery sergeant with seven combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2001.

Stowe says she understands the budgets cuts but still feels a little shortchanged.

"It's just a bummer for the kids," she said. "It's like the Grinch stealing Christmas."

Marines and their families at Lejeune will instead be able to participate in some free activities — golf, bowling, skeet shooting, archery and movies.

Other bases that are canceling ceremonies to mark the nation's birthday:

Shaw Air Force Base in South Carolina, where the annual Jammin' July 4th put on by the 20th Fighter Wing at Shaw and local city and county officials has been scrapped. The base plans a smaller "freedom bash" on July 3 with pool games, face painting and bouncy castles.
The Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam in Hawaii, which is scaling back by canceling the fireworks and instead hosting a daytime celebration featuring the Pacific Fleet Band and the Air Force Band of the Pacific.
New Jersey's Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.

(As if things couldn't get any more ridiculous as more and more Americans pander to Islam, San Francisco International Airport has constructed a special prayers space for Muslims in which they can wash their hands and feet before they pray.  While the adherents to Islam are required to offer prayers five times a day, along with a ritual that also calls for a ceremonial cleansing, many San Francisco cab drivers are unable to accomplish this apparently in bathroom facilities.  At least that's what it sounds like they want us to believe)

Airport's garage now Muslim house of worship

http://blog.sfgate.com/matierandross/2013/06/09/airports-garage-now-muslim-house-of-worship/

For many cab drivers, that's meant either lugging bottled water around or using one of the bathrooms inside the terminal to wash — a practice not always welcomed by airport passengers.

So Royal Cab driver Hasan Khan, 52, a Pakistani immigrant, collected some 300 signatures from fellow cabbies, urging the airport to give them their own cleansing station.

Airport brass obliged — and the wash equipment was installed on the ground floor of the main garage, right next to where the drivers congregate for their breaks.

Airport spokesman Doug Yakel said, "The way we look at it...this was in the interest of maintaining a good relationship with ground transportation providers."

Ah, but did they use public money? Yes they did.

Mr. Yakel says that those resources were nominal, with work done by in-house plumbers.

So how does this square with the very people, many who live in San Francisco, who are always crying "Separation of Church and State"? Apparently they are just fine with it.

In fact, Khan realizes that not everyone will appreciate the facility or their tax dollars being used to construct it. He must have read my mind.

He then attempts to state that Christians generally pray at Church on Sundays. While that may be true for "professed" Christians, those of us who take the Scriptures seriously pray daily, often many times, but I don't see airports making room for that. Khan tries to say that because Muslims pray five times daily that it's different for them as it's woven into their daily routine.

"We are very happy," said Ahmed Algazali, 49, a fellow driver from Yemen as he prepared to join Khan for a late-afternoon garage prayer.

How long do you think this will take to catch on America? Not that I expect the people of San Francisco to oppose any of this simply because it's not Jewish or Christian, but I do find it ironic that they would allow Muslims such a generous tax-funded offer. However, I'm sure this is nothing that a pound of bacon could rectify.

Calls to SFO to find out the amount of money used have not been returned.

(Obuma is Muslim, make no mistake about that and from what I have seen in the world and here at home this is a very violent religion.  It does not want women, children or anyone outside its boundaries and Obuma, being Muslim, it should not be a surprise that he would side with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, in spite of the fact that the people are very much against it.  Now we need to turn this onto this nation and get rid of Obuma for the same reasons.  He, like Morsi, is trying to make everything his way and he openly opposes those who do not agree with him.  He will be... hopefully impeached, and soon.  There are just to many lies, too much corruption and too many ghosts in the Obuma closet to continue to effectively hide or cover up.  Just wait, the story is going to get better... if you consider "Strange" and weird to be better.)

Does The CIA Director Have Barack Obama's Records
That Prove He Is Ineligible To Be President?

by Leon Puissegur


We know that John Brennan got the head job of the Central Intelligence Agency. However, as we stated in a previous article, by obtaining the records of Barack Obama he may well show that Obama is not eligible to be President.

We have to go back to 2008 and a break-in that very few people even knew about. It was a structured break-in to obtain records that may well show Obama is not a United States Citizen. However, this break-in was not seen nor heard of. It was kept silent to all, including the Obama campaign.

Let us look at what Mr. Douglas Hagmann says about this.

"Since 2008, the accepted and unchallenged motive for the breach was that the perpetrators were looking at the passport and biological data on all three presidential candidates in some sort of 'exploratory' mission," Hagmann writes. "They were summarily fired from their jobs and disappeared into the night before they could be interviewed by investigators working on the case. What took place following this admitted breach, however, has an extremely sinister overtone."

Hagmann continues: "Recall that at the time of the passport office break-in, Barack Hussein Obama was on the campaign trail as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. The news of the breach was made public within a week of the last intrusion, and a week later, on March 21, 2008, Obama was asked for his reaction by ABC News Jake Tapper while campaigning. Obviously, Obama now officially knows that the public has been informed about the level of the breach, and that Obama's personal and confidential biographical information, in addition to his international travel was apparently 'accessed.'" http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/Vote2008/story?id=4492773

It is important to note that the files accessed included Obama's personal passport and not limited to his diplomatic passport.

Hagmann then adds:

On April 8, 2008, Obama continued to comment on the fact that the confidentiality of his passport records were apparently compromised. It was on this occasion when Obama admitted, for the first time in any public venue as a presidential candidate, that he traveled to Pakistan in 1981. One wonders whether Obama would have disclosed his Pakistan trip at this time had it not been for the uncertainty that the information was already "in play."

Even ABC News appeared surprised at this sudden and unexpected revelation, considering all of the talk about Pakistan and U.S. foreign policy during the previous several months. Research shows that Obama did not disclose this trip at any time during any policy discussions or debates prior to the passport office breach.

It is also important to point out that during the investigation of the breach of the passport office records, the Washington Times
reported that "officials do not know whether information was improperly copied, altered or removed from the database during the intrusions" [Emphasis added]. As time progressed, however, so did the leaks. It was reported that at least one employee within the U.S. State Department shared passport information with a man identified as Lieutenant Quarles Harris Jr.

My investigation suggests that Harris was the intended recipient of stolen credit card information from the State Department employee, but received more than what he bargained for. When he realized the scope of the crime and the explosive nature of the information he possessed, he turned to investigators for protection. He also began to talk with investigators and ultimately, made a deal with federal prosecutors.

Before he could make good on his deal, Lieutenant Quarles Harris Jr. was found shot to death in his car on April 17, 2008, just over a month after the last breach. He was found in front of the Judah House Praise Baptist Church in the northeast section of Washington. He had been shot in the head.

The murder of Harris remains unsolved, and the official narrative of that murder is that Harris was either a victim of random violence, or his murder was a result of a "street deal gone bad."

It is important to note the two employees of Stanley, Inc., along with a third individual employed by another defense contractor identified as The Analysis Corporation, were identified as the perpetrators who breached the records of the U.S. passport office on three occasions in 2008 and "improperly accessed" the passport records of Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and John McCain. The breaches occurred on January 9, February 21 and March 14, 2008.

It is important to note that the CEO of the Analysis Corporation at the time of the passport office break-in was John O. Brennan, who served as a close advisor to Obama in 2008 on matters of intelligence and foreign policy. He was also Obama's counterrorism chief and the first assassination czar. Brennan also contributed to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign and also had a 25-year career in the CIA.

Does this look like an inside job to keep Obama's records closed or blackmail? Could it be both? It is very strange that the man that found nearly all the information that Obama does not wish to be seen suddenly gets shot! Is Obama behind this killing? Could it be that maybe he directed that murder, or was it some one that was working with Obama? So many questions and so very few answers.

Talent Rewarded, Disloyalty Punished?
Megyn Kelly's Rise May Be Greta-Induced

Megyn Kelly's move to primetime was never a matter of if, but when. And with respect to Rachel Maddow, no woman in cable news can command a screen, a conversation, a show quite like the attorney-turned-anchor.

For years, it always seemed odd that Fox News would hide one of its top assets in a timeslot with as little visibility as Kelly's at 1:00-3:00 PM on weekdays. New Year's Eve in Times Square? Have her co-host. Weekly Kelly's Court spots on O'Reilly? Always a quality verbal joust. Co-host 2012 election night coverage—which produced some Rovian controversy and the highest ratings in the network's history? Piece of cake.

To perform so many roles as effectively and effortlessly as Kelly is the very definition of versatility.

Of talent.

Is this a fawning piece thus far? Yup. But ask any cable news exec—if given the opportunity to start a cable news network from scratch—which anchor/host they would use a #1 fantasy pick to draft. Outside of Bill O'Reilly (who at 63 could be in the twilight of his career, although smart money has him working well into his 70s), the second pick (or arguably first) would likely be the 42-year-old Kelly.

Sure, she has her faults (getting personal with Fox's Kirsten Powers by telling her she didn't know what she was talking about and had no ability to debate, for example, was both condescending and arrogant. Kelly knew it afterwards and apologized), but a format that begs for confrontation will invariably lead to these kind of mistakes or regrets no matter who's anchoring...it's just all part of the perils of the business.

And in the "now that makes sense" category, the dots appear to be connected around Andrew Kirell's scoop on Greta Van Susteren reportedly speaking to CNN about returning to the network that essentially launched her career: If it's true, Greta apparently heard the loud Kelly primetime rumors, or perhaps—at age 59 and not exactly decimating the competition the way her Fox cohorts do in the ratings—she saw the writing on the wall.

But what makes the Greta-to-CNN story odd is that she recently signed a long-term contract stipulating she host a show in primetime. That said, where exactly is there room on the schedule for a Megyn show in the evening? With the aforementioned O'Reilly having the top-rated show in cable news at 8:00 PM and Sean Hannity hosting the third-highest rated show, they ain't going anywhere.

How about earlier? Well, 6:00 PM belongs to Bret Baier and 7:00 PM Shep Smith, and they also have locked down long-term contracts while hosting highly-rated shows (overall, Fox holds the top 13 spots). To that end, the only three scenarios appear to be a Kelly/Greta co-hosted show, or two 30-minute programs by each.

Or...Greta's contract may state she must host a show in primetime, but does it stipulate specifically weekday prime? Could she end up getting Schultzed and have happen to her what MSNBC did to poor Ed Schultz by sending her off to weekends?

Or...Greta could be shown the door despite the new contract. Because as Zev Chafets' new biography on Roger Ailes points out over and over throughout the book, if you stay loyal to Ailes, he'll have your back no matter what (just ask Bob Beckel). But if you stray (particularly when the suitor is a longtime competitor), Ailes will have no issue with showing you the door (just ask one-time FNC employee Jim Cramer what happened after flirting with a competitor while under contract).

And maybe that's what happened here if the Greta/CNN talks are to be believed: She is seen as disloyal in Ailes' eyes; Ailes responds by announcing Kelly is moving to primetime a bit sooner than originally planned. And maybe that's why Fox made such an announcement without having, you know...a new primetime schedule, a Kelly show title, a show format...all ready to firmly back up such a big announcement.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/greta-van-susteren-brushes-off-rumors-that-she-considered-coming-back-to-cnn/

Regardless, Kelly's rise also continues a trend of transforming guests/pundits/contributors into full-fledged hosts, once an unthinkable thought. Remember, in the old days of the 20th Century, the only road to anchoring or hosting on a national stage was to work in a small city (think Reno), followed by a slightly-bigger-but-still-small-city (think Omaha), followed by a "medium" city (think Columbus), followed by a jump to an NFL city (insert team here). And then perhaps, perhaps, you might be lucky enough to get an audition against eight other people after the same job.

In Kelly's case, she once contributed short legal segments to Fox but was quickly elevated to the anchor chair once her ability to do bigger things became all too apparent to Ailes. And despite having little experience entering the TV business almost a decade ago, Kelly's rise proves once again that true talent is inherent, not something that can be taught.

Great anchors don't become great personalities. But great personalities can become great anchors.

Kelly will start her primetime gig upon returning from maternity leave.

The only questions that now remain are:

What exactly is the gig?

Will it be a solo act at, say, 10:00 PM?

Or will she be seated next to another lawyer who also made it big on TV?

Jihadist Group: We Started Arizona Wildfires

(What should disturb everyone is that anyone would claim responsibility for such atrocities, especially these guys, right?  They're from the "religion of peace"... (Yep, there's loads of sarcasm laced in that statement)


Oh the many facets of jihad! Now we're seeing fire jihad in America. According to reporter David Barnett, a Palestinian jihadist group, Masada al Mujahideen, has recently claimed credit for the ongoing wildfires in Arizona in a statement that was posted to a jihadist forum on Wednesday.
http://www.longwarjournal.org/threat-matrix/archives/2013/07/masadat_al_mujahideen_claims_c.php

Barnett reports:

The statement, titled "Masada al-Mujahideen Fulfilled its Promise and Attacked America Again After the Expiration of the Period with Fires that Achieved Historic Results," was obtained and translated by the SITE Intelligence Group.

"We had previously announced an unconventional war against the occupation state of Israel, and then we escalated this war to reach its main supporter, America, so that it receives a major share of it, which will destroy their flora and fauna, with permission from Allah and then with our hands," the group said.

The statement further said that the group targeted the United States "in order to make it clear and to make it know we can reach it when we warn it, and to make it certain that our hands don't just reach it but also strike it."

The group warned that the attacks "will not be the last...if America does not respond to our demands." The statement boasted that 19 firefighters had been killed in the fires.

Authorities contradict Masada al-Mujahideen's claims, saying that they believe the fires were started by lightning.

This is not the first time they have claimed responsibility for fires in the United States. In January of 2012, they also claimed credit for wildfires in Nevada and they have claimed credit for over a dozen fires in Israel since 2010. They have also claimed numerous attacks on Israel other than the fires, including rocket and mortar attacks.

Masada al-Mujahideen formed in April of 2008, claiming Abu Omar al Ansari as its leader.

Whether their claims are true or not is anyone's guess. However, journalist Pamela Geller points out:

The devout Muslim group, Al Qaeda, has long urged the setting of forest fires as a form of jihad (holy war). Spring 2012: al-Qaeda's English-language online magazine, Inspire, published an article called "It Is of Your Freedom to Ignite a Firebomb," which featured instructions on how to build an incendiary bomb to light forests on fire.

(Okay... as Morsi was being removed from power, the U.S. had to be concerned about what would happen with Egypt, particularly given the Obuma administration's investment in time and treasure (our money) backing President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Surely all his senior members, especially the Secretary of State, John Kerry, would have been avidly consulting and weighing options, considering strategy together.
Except maybe not so much)

From Politico:

A CBS News producer tweeted a photo of Kerry's yacht, Isabel, on Wednesday afternoon and said a colleague saw Kerry boarding it at the Nantucket Boat Basin. She shouted "Morsi," but got no response from the secretary of state.

But the State Department said Kerry was not aboard a boat on Wednesday and has spent the day working the phones on Egypt. "Since his plane touched down in Washington at 4 a.m., Secretary Kerry was working all day and on the phone dealing with the crisis in Egypt," spokeswoman Jen Psaki said. "He participated in the White House meeting with the president by secure phone and was and is in non-stop contact with foreign leaders, and his senior team in Washington and Cairo. Any report or tweet that he was on a boat is completely inaccurate."

So his plane touched down in Washington DC at 4 a.m. On the other hand, he was in Nantucket this morning [Wednesday], according to several eyewitnesses. On the other other hand, he was working all day. And he called into an important meeting at the White House rather than attend in person.
