-Lurid Crime Tales-
Anguish of Edwards’ pal wife
Tawdry tale goes a step further. Cheri Young, the wife of Andrew Young, the aide to John Edwards, the Breck Boy who for some unknown reason preferred Rielle Hunter to his own family, weeps on the witness stand about how Rielle and Breck Boy destroyed her life and that of her family.

Feh.

No one put a gun to her head. No one forced her to defend John Edwards. No one forced her to take Rielle into her home. The article claims it was out of loyalty to Edwards and his presidential campaign, but I wonder how much of Bunny Mellon's and Fred Baron's money stuck to the Young household.

I think they're all guilty and they all belong at the Greybar Hotel, just to teach all the other apparatchiks, nomenklatura and elites an object lesson.

#1  I'd be more forgiving. The Youngs got swept up in a narcissist's fantasy and lost their bearings. Mrs. Young said she was the sole dissenter, but went along with the scheme because she "didn't want the whole campaign to blow up and for it to be her fault." I find that totally credible. Resisting groupthink, alone, is damn near impossible.

Home Front: WoT
SEALs slam Obama for using them as 'ammunition' in bid to take credit for bin Laden killing
Extensive quoting by name of current and retired military personnel, which is a little unusual. Forget the usual political self-serving and just read what they have to say.
Serving and former US Navy SEALs have slammed President Barack Obama for taking the credit for killing Osama bin Laden and accused him of using Special Forces operators as ‘ammunition’ for his re-election campaign.

The SEALs spoke out to MailOnline after the Obama campaign released an ad entitled ‘One Chance’. In it President Bill Clinton is featured saying that Mr Obama took ‘the harder and the more honourable path’ in ordering that bin Laden be killed. The words ‘Which path would Mitt Romney have taken?’ are then displayed.

Besides the ad, the White House is marking the first anniversary of the SEAL Team Six raid that killed bin Laden inside his compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan with a series of briefings and an NBC interview in the Situation Room designed to highlight the ‘gutsy call’ made by the President.

Mr Obama used a news conference today to trumpet his personal role and imply that his Republican opponent Mr Romney, who in 2008 expressed reservations about the wisdom of sending troops into Pakistan, would have let bin Laden live.

‘I said that I'd go after bin Laden if we had a clear shot at him, and I did,’ Mr Obama said. ‘If there are others who have said one thing and now suggest they'd do something else, then I'd go ahead and let them explain it.’

Ryan Zinke, a former Commander in the US Navy who spent 23 years as a SEAL and led a SEAL Team 6 assault unit, said: ‘The decision was a no brainer. I applaud him for making it but I would not overly pat myself on the back for making the right call.

‘I think every president would have done the same. He is justified in saying it was his decision but the preparation, the sacrifice - it was a broader team effort.’

Mr Zinke, who is now a Republican state senator in Montana, added that MR Obama was exploiting bin Laden’s death for his re-election bid. ‘The President and his administration are positioning him as a war president using the SEALs as ammunition. It was predictable.’

Mr Obama has faced criticism even from allies about his decision to make a campaign ad about the bin Laden raid. Arianna Huffington, an outspoken liberal who runs the left-leaning Huffington Post website, roundly condemned it. She told CBS: ‘We should celebrate the fact that they did such a great job. It's one thing to have an NBC special from the Situation Room... all that to me is perfectly legitimate, but to turn it into a campaign ad is one of the most despicable things you can do.’

Campaigning in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Mr Romney responded to a shouted question by a reporter by saying: ‘Even Jimmy Carter would have given that order.’

A serving SEAL Team member said: ‘Obama wasn’t in the field, at risk, carrying a gun. As president, at every turn he should be thanking the guys who put their lives on the line to do this. He does so in his official speeches because he speechwriters are smart.

‘But the more he tries to take the credit for it, the more the ground operators are saying, “Come on, man!” It really didn’t matter who was president. At the end of the day, they were going to go.’

Chris Kyle, a former SEAL sniper with 160 confirmed and another 95 unconfirmed kills to his credit, said: ‘The operation itself was great and the nation felt immense pride. It was great that we did it.

‘But bin Laden was just a figurehead. The war on terror continues. Taking him out didn’t really change anything as far as the war on terror is concerned and using it as a political attack is a cheap shot.

‘In years to come there is going to be information that will come out that Obama was not the man who made the call. He can say he did and the people who really know what happened are inside the Pentagon, are in the military and the military isn’t allowed to speak out against the commander- in-chief so his secret is safe.’

Senior military figures have said that Admiral William McRaven, a former SEAL who was then head of Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) made the decision to take bin Laden out. Tactical decisions were delegated even further down the chain of command.

Mr Kyle added: ‘He's trying to say that Romney wouldn't have made the same call? Anyone who is patriotic to this country would have made that exact call, Democrat or Republican. Obama is taking more credit than he is due but it's going to get him some pretty good mileage.’

A former intelligence official who was serving in the US government when bin Laden was killed said that the Obama administration knew about the al-Qaeda leader’s whereabouts in October 2010 but delayed taking action and risked letting him escape.

‘In the end, Obama was forced to make a decision and do it. He knew that if he didn’t do it the political risks in not taking action were huge. Mitt Romney would have made the call but he would have made it earlier – as would George W. Bush.’

Brandon Webb, a former SEAL who spent 13 years on active duty and served in Iraq and Afghanistan, said: ‘Bush should get partial credit for putting the system in place.

‘Obama inherited a very robust package with regards to special ops and the intelligence community. But Obama deserves credit because he got bin Laden – you can’t take that away from him.

‘My friends that work in Special Operations Command (SOCOM) that have been on video teleconferences with Obama on these kill or capture situations say that Obama has no issue whatsoever with making decisions and typically it's kill. He’s hitting the kill button every time. I have a lot of respect for him for that.’

But he said that many SEALs were dismayed about the amount of publicity the Obama administration had generated about SEAL Team Six, the very existence of which is highly classified.

‘The majority of the SEALs I know are really proud of the operation but it does become “OK, enough is enough – we’re ready to get back to work and step out of the limelight.” They don’t want to be continuously paraded around a global audience like a show dog.

‘Obama has a very good relationship with the Special Operations community at large, especially the SEALs, and it’s nice to see. We had the same relationship with George W. Bush when he was president.’

It was ‘stretching a little much’ for Mr Obama to suggest only he would have made the decision. ‘I personally I don't think Romney would have any problem making tough decisions. He got a very accomplished record of making decision as a business professional.

‘He may not have charisma but he clearly has leadership skills. I don’t think he'd have any problem taking that decision.’

Clint Bruce, who gave up the chance of an NFL career to serve as a SEAL officer before retiring as a lieutenant after nine years, said: ‘We were extremely surprised and discouraged by the publicity because it compromises the ability of those guys to operate.

‘It’s a waste of time to speculate about who would and wouldn’t have made that decision. It was a symphony of opportunity and intelligence that allowed this administration to give the green light. We want to acknowledge that they made that decision.

‘Politicians should let the public know where they stand on national security but not in the play-by-play, detailed way that has been done recently. The intricacies of national security should not become part of stump speeches.’

#1  The SEALS shot bin Laden? I thought Obambi fast roped into the compound and bored him to death with a speech. Much more painful than way.

#2  I'm more interested in who will "take credit" accept the blame for the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

#3  Was there any conclusion of the SF operators who were killed a couple weeks later that if it was or was not a trap set because the specific team was called out?

#4  (Besoeker)#2: Rita Lavelle of the EPA served 6 months in a Federal prison, was on probation for 5 years, and had to pay a $10,000 fine for contempt charges--she was convicted of lying to Congress.

Comtempt charges are being drawn for Holder for lying to Congress over Fast and Furious. However, it is hard to determine if anything will come of it.

#8  Obama has as much responsibility for the killing of OBL as he does for the killing of the Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

If he takes credit for one - he should also take responsibility for the other. After all it was his administration which went ahead with F&F.

(The previous gunrunner under Bush was very limited, operated with the cooperation of the Mexican authorities and was ended).

#9  Audacity of hypocracy? How about Obama with Bill Clinton putting together a 7 minute commercial spiking the ball on Osama's death and claim Mitt Romney would not have done it.

That's right, Bill Clinton. The guy who passed up numerous opportunities to take out Osama before the 9/11 hi-jackings.

#10  That's right, Bill Clinton. The guy who passed up numerous opportunities to take out Osama before the 9/11 hi-jackings.

15 years later,

"Obama has no issue whatsoever with making decisions and typically it's kill. He's hitting the kill button every time. I have a lot of respect for him for that."

I don't. The purpose of his first term has been to campaign for a second term. He just doesn't want to get blamed for letting the wrong guy go. So everyone dies. Good thing the military gets to pick the targets.

#11  Understandably, the SEALS resent the blatent exploitation of the event. OK, but as the sentiment from them suggests…oh well. And for everyone else… let it go. People appear like absolute twits for criticizing the President on this one. The O-Campaign planned this obvious stick in the eye. And obviously the bait was irresistible. It’s one of their classic twofers. Always...always...watch the other hand with these guys.

Home Front: Culture Wars
Indian Princess Elizabeth Warren
There's an old saying in the Indian Nation: When accused of being a fake Indian, go on the warpath.
Didn't work too well for Ward Churchill, but about the only option.
Funny, she doesn't look Siouxish...
And so we have Granny Warren, the carpetbagging Democrat candidate for the U.S. Senate doubling down after being unable to produce a scintilla of evidence to back up her claims to a piece of the racial-preference racket.
It's not like she needs Dawes Roll documentation or anything - if she 'feels' she's Indian, that's all that matters. I don't suppose she'd want Romney to check it out for her.
Evidence? She don't need no stinkin' evidence. She's got her family "lore." She's "proud" to be an Indian. It's the kind of fact-free, how-dare-you defense only a Beautiful Person could get away with.
I know who 25 of my 32 ggg-grandparents were and none were Indian; four of the unknows could possibly have been, but I doubt it; one of the knowns was rumored to have maybe been part Indian - so can I get Affirmative Action status? These grandcestors were all 9probably) born between 1770 and 1825.

#3  Wouldn't voting for someone because of their race be just as racist as not voting for someone because of their race?

Or do I not understand something?

Anyway, wherever did she get the idea that being part Indian would be a good thing in an election? Where is she going to find racists to vote for her? That would be stupid, wouldn't it?

#5  Isn't 1/32 a small enough fraction that even during the height of segregation you could count as 'white' with that much black heritage? How much Jewish heritage did it take for the Nazis to murder non-practicing Jews? The whole idea that one of your ancestors 200 years ago should make any difference today is nuts. But apparently it makes a difference in Affirmative Action.

"Apartheid" is dood. It was replaced by the African National Congress (ANC) and garden variety communism, masquareding as democracy. Any similarities to our current leadership in Washington and our hopeless state of affairs is purely coincidental. [snark off]

-Election 2012
New Obama slogan has long ties to Marxism, socialism
The Obama campaign apparently didn't look backwards into history when selecting its new campaign slogan, "Forward" -- a word with a long and rich association with European Marxism.
No coincidence that MS-NBC also incorporates it...
Many Communist and radical publications and entities throughout the 19th and 20th centuries had the name "Forward!" or its foreign cognates. Wikipedia has an entire section called "Forward (generic name of socialist publications)."

"The name Forward carries a special meaning in socialist political terminology. It has been frequently used as a name for socialist, communist and other left-wing newspapers and publications," the online encyclopedia explains.

The slogan "Forward!" reflected the conviction of European Marxists and radicals that their movements reflected the march of history, which would move forward past capitalism and into socialism and communism.

The Obama campaign released its new campaign slogan Monday in a 7-minute video. The title card has simply the word "Forward" with the "O" having the familiar Obama logo from 2008. It will be played at rallies this weekend that mark the Obama re-election campaign's official beginning.

There have been at least two radical-left publications named "Vorwaerts" (the German word for "Forward"). One was the daily newspaper of the Social Democratic Party of Germany whose writers included Friedrich Engels and Leon Trotsky. It still publishes as the organ of Germany's SDP, though that party has changed considerably since World War II. Another was the 1844 biweekly reader of the Communist League. Karl Marx, Engels and Mikhail Bakunin are among the names associated with that publication.

Vladimir Lenin founded the publication "Vpered" (the Russian word for "forward") in 1905. Soviet propaganda film-maker Dziga Vertov made a documentary whose title is sometimes translated as "Forward, Soviet" (though also and more literally as "Stride, Soviet").

Conservative critics of the Obama administration have noted numerous ties to radicalism and socialists throughout Mr. Obama's history, from his first political campaign being launched from the living room of two former Weather Underground members, to appointing as green jobs czar Van Jones, a self-described communist.

Politics

Forward (generic name of socialist publications)

Forward (Greenland), a social democratic political party in Greenland

Kadima (Hebrew for forward), an Israeli political party

Socialist league VPERED, a Russian political party


There are three that are openly socialist and Kadima which the wikipedia rates as centrist and liberal. I would say 3 out of 4.

Urban Dictionary has a better one:
Going Forward:
Overused buzzwords used mainly in the corporate world.
These unnecessary words are consistently used to denote something new in a company; be it a policy or a procedure.
Their use is totally fucking stupid, since there is no way to start using new procedures in the past. These words are filler and an example of verbal diarrhea.
