A heckler would be someone who disagrees, interrupts and shouts at the speaker. The person was a supporter who interrupted and agreed with Obama. She was invited and was part of the show.
[Dawn] THERE could not have been anything as distressing a sight as watching the Titanic, its hull ruptured by an iceberg, sink slowly into the Atlantic Ocean. Until now, that is.
This month, another multi-tiered vessel -- the Pakistain Peoples Party -- has gradually begun its descent into deeper waters. Nature is not to blame; the iceberg upon which the PPP has foundered is of its own making. Like the Mohammedan League, it is no longer the party envisioned by its leader.
The Pakistain Peoples Party was launched on Nov 30, 1967 in the drawing room of Dr Mubashir Hasan, a professor in Lahore's University of Engineering & Technology. Its manifesto was drafted by Mr J. Rahim, a former bureaucrat. In that small room, Mr Zulfikar Ali Bhutto

[Ynet] Paleostinians realize certain photos can cause more damage than anti-Israel resolutions in UN
A week ago I traveled through the Mount of Olives range, just a few meters below Hebrew University. Israeli territory, the capital city. Beside me sat former Defense Minister Moshe Arens. During our drive a young Paleostinian who had just come out of his school in Abu Tor threw a stone at our car. On the way back another stone was thrown at the windshield. No damage was caused apart from a scratch on the windshield. In Israel no one remembers scratches. Most of the incidents pass beneath our radar. The victims are anonymous.
A month before the elections, videos were posted on social networks showing our soldiers in Kafr Qaddum and in a neighborhood in Hebron fleeing from a stone attack by young Paleostinians. The images struck some exposed nerves. When soldiers run away from rocks -- it sends a problematic message. When the common interest of the Paleostinians and Israelis also runs away from rocks -- the problem is more severe. The discussion surrounding the videos quickly faded. After years of empty promises of peace, many Israelis are no longer interested in what is going on in the West Bank. The elections ended, a government was formed, but the stones and videos are still with us.
Figures presented by the security establishment indicate that the third intifada is already here. It does not have a name, headline or public interest yet, but it is taking place. Over the past few months rocks have been flying in every corner. Israeli civilians are getting hurt, soldiers are dealing with violent protests. Despite what some elements in the radical Left believe, stones are not merely a symbol of a popular struggle. They have the potential to ignite the entire region. The only difference between a stone that kills and a stone that does not cause any real harm is luck.
The settlers are right when they claim that the escalation in Judea and Samaria must not be ignored. You don't have to be a supporter of the settlement enterprise to realize the potential of this escalation. Calm, by the way, is a real asset to those who are seeking diplomatic solutions. When there is fighting, it is hard to tell the difference between warmongers and proponents of peace.
The two previous intifadas caused damage to both sides. Blood directly affects the quality of life in Ramallah and Jerusalem. The Israeli economy, despite the deficit, will survive even if the violence intensifies. The Paleostinian economy, on the other hand, will pay a price it cannot withstand.
A determined military operation is needed in order to stop the current round of violence. The not too distant past teaches us that the Paleostinians know how to launch intifadas, but not how to end them. Israel, for its part, is facing the 'strategic stone' dilemma. As far as the Paleostinian leadership is concerned, the stones are a continuation of the battle over the narrative and international public opinion. Photogenic violence. The Paleostinians are looking for the right photo. A stone thrown by a Paleostinian boy at a soldier who responds violently. In Ramallah you do not need the findings of the Israeli investigation into the Mohammed al-Dura incident to understand that certain photos cause more damage than anti-Israel resolutions in the UN.
Such a round of violence cannot be stopped with a light finger on the trigger against stone-throwing teenagers. It requires a wise finger -- not only for moral purposes, but for utilitarian purposes as well.
As the frequency of the violent incidents increases, so will the military pressure. There is no other formula.
I vote for the skunk spray and the special, high-pitched squeal. Let their pictures show them on their knees with their hands over their ears, and their wives and mothers burning their clothes while they stand naked in the street, frantically trying to scrub off the stink.

China + Radical Islam are the two great forces that can de facto defeat, iff not destroy, the US + West - the Muslims were able to defeat the Crusades, in part, because of Christian-specific in-fighting + lack of patience. ONE CAN READ IT ALL THE TIME AT MEMRI.ORG + RELATED MUSLIM = PRO-ISLAMIST BLOGS.
One can safely say that Radical Islam is de facto counting on the US-West to give up the fight FIRST.
E.G. MEMRI, IFF THE US-WEST CAN'T OR WON'T DO THE PROPER DILIGENCE, AS THEY EXPECT, RADICAL ISLAM + ITS GLOBAL JIHAD W-I-L-L FINALLY CONQUER THE WORLD.

A major problem with the west and Islam is that so many in the west, especially the elite, can
not handle the concept of the inseparable duality of Islam.
It is both a totalitarian, violent political system similar in many ways to Fascism or Communism, AND it is a theological/philosophical system that preaches and justifies any and all vile actions of the political side.
This idea that you can separate the two is lunacy.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said Wednesday that he doesnt trust members of his own party to negotiate a budget conference report.
Cruz's remark came after Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said he thought it was bizarre that a member of his own party was objecting to forming a conference committee with the House to work out a budget.
McCain said the objections suggested Senate Republicans didnt trust House Republicans to hold the party line in negotiations.
Isnt it a little bizarre, this whole exercise? McCain said after Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) objected to going to conference. What were saying is that we dont trust our colleagues on the other side of the Capitol.
Cruz responded that he doesn't trust Republicans.
The senior senator of Arizona urged senators to trust House Republicans ... and frankly, I dont trust Republicans, Cruz said. Its the leaders of both parties that got us in this mess. ... A lot of Republicans were complicit in this spending spree.
McCain said a small minority of the minority was blocking progress on the budget and a return to regular order.
But Rubio and Cruz argued that Democrats are trying to use budget reconciliation rules as a back-door way to raise the debt ceiling with just 51 votes, essentially giving "Democrats a blank check." The federal government is expected to reach the debt ceiling this fall.
Senate Democrats have asked to go to conference on the budgets 10 times, and Republicans have objected to each request.

It's all an intentional labeling confusion. They are not liberals, they're socialists. They are not Republicans, they are members of the Beltway Party. Once you tagged the individuals with their true status, it become much easier to read the program for the game.

They are not Republicans, they are members of the Beltway Party
Too easy and trite a generalization.
Think of it more along the lines of the Senate Republicans using Napoleonic tactics in modern warfare. They religiously hew to the traditional political give-and-take-let's-make-a-deal process; the horse-trading where no one side completely wins or loses.
They don't want to hear that the horse died forty years ago.

Cruz is under McCain's skin and living rent-free in his head

welcome to the club.
As far as i can see the only difference between Trunks and Donks is the Donks tell the truth and the GOP lies. Donks tell you up front they're out to screw you and they do; Pubs say they aren't and yet they do it, too.
Washington had it right when he said the greatest threat to the republic was "factionalism"... his word for political parties.
Stage one: create a party to fight for some principle.
Stage 2. Consolidate power to achieve those goals.
Stage 3: protect that power at all costs.
A hundred years from now the Tea Party will be as bad as the Dems... or at least the GOP... the ballistics of human politics...

Ted Cruz's has demonstrated good judgement in nt trusting Republicans. I expect Demcrats to ignore the constitution and screw America. It is when so called conservatives do it that infuriates me.

Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
