Ex Secret Service Agent claims that Obama is not telling the truth when he blames the Secret Service as being responsible for the ceasing of tours at the White House.
FTA:
Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino told Breitbart News that President Barack Obama was lying when he blamed the cancellation of White House tours on his former agency.
“The president’s absolutely not telling the truth when he said the Secret Service made that decision to cut [the White House] tours,” Bongino said. “That’s the core of it: he is not telling the truth.”
Bingo.
Everyone KNOWS Obama is lying....yet he keeps opening his mouth.
Bongino further states, “The Secret Service does not make political decisions,” Bongino said. “The Secret Service makes security decisions. His statement that it was a Secret Service decision internal budget decision--and keep in mind, I’m not speaking for the Secret Service, I’m speaking from experience of being with them. All he’d have to do is cancel one or two of his political trips and his Martha’s Vineyard vacation, which two years ago I was on and helped coordinate, he would save that money times ten."
He wants Americans to feel the pain and inconveinence and deprivation when Republicans refuse to bow down to his every whim, but do not expect this president to sacrifice one damn thing for the American people. Not one. He's going to golf and go on vacay and campaign and do whatever the hell he wants, but don't you dare think he should cut back...because he'd the President and can do whatever he wants at our expense.
This is a man who hates us, hates our country and does not at all sympathize with the struggles of everyday, ordinary Americans.
He.
Does.
Not.
Care.
And, not only does he not care and not only does he want to stick it to us, he want's us to think he is blameless. He doesn't give a shit about us, but he doesn't want to LOOK like he doesn't care...because he might need us to still beleive he does.
Yeah, and I quit believing in Santa Claus when I was about 5, too. Are all the people who see Obama as some kind of great American going to stop beleiving the lie now that we are in the fifth year in?

New Pope....Cool
There's a new pope in town.
He's going to be called Pope Francis...the first one to be named Francis and the first one from the Americas.
Argentinian Jorge Mario Bergoglia is the new head of the Catholic Church.
I'm not a practicing Catholic, despite my mother's efforts, but I do find the process of naming the new pope, one that I have witnessed in some way now for the 4th time in my life, to be intrigung, to say the least.

The Pass-The-Buck Resident In Chief
Big Bad Bully Congress and Secret Service...It's THEIR fault...
President Truman was the "The Buck Stops Here" President.
Rush Limbaugh called Bill Clinton the President who exclaimed, "The buck never GOT here!"
Barrack Obama..."The Buck FLEW By Here And It's Someone Else's Fault That It's Not Here Now."
White Hours tours, people. It's not his fault the White House tours are shut down. It's the fault of the Secret Service and that meanie, bad and obstructionist CONGRESS.....it's THEIR fault.
You can't expect the leader of the free world, to take any responsibility, can you?
"....And what I’m proposing is if we do it smart, if we do it sensibly, if we do it in a balanced way that the American support, including, by the way, a majority of Republicans, then we don’t have to– do arbitrary stuff. We can do it in an intelligent way that’s gonna improve our economy...."
WHO buys this shit?
Further, Jay Carney, that wonderfully respectful mouthpiece of the Resident, says this,
"But I should be clear that there’s not an option here to reopen the White House tours in general here because, again, that’s not an option because of the sequester cuts. These are labor intensive operations that require thousands of man hours by the Secret Service, and the decision was made that given the unhappy set of choices sequester presented to the Secret Service, that this was the best option.”
I would pay money to see someone punch Jay Carney in his big, fat, pie-hole.
Maybe we can sell raffle tickets for such an event and THAT will keep the tours open.
Nevermind that a number of people have come forward and offered to pay the costs for a week of White House tours....Sean Hannity, Donald Trump, Erc Bolling...all of them conservatives, by the way.
Not that I am surprised that Michael Moore hasn't offered, he's too busy pushing for the release to the public of the photographs of murdered children from Sandy Hook in an attempt to stick it to the NRA.

We're Broke As Hell, So Let's Front a Multi-Billion Dollar Loan So Southern Californians Can Get To Vegas Faster...Sorta
We're Broke As Hell, So Let's Front a Multi-Billion Dollar Loan So Southern Californians Can Get To Vegas Faster.
Honest to God, the absurdity in this is so absurd that it almost makes sense.
Every single goverment agency is having to figure out ways to make cuts to their budgets, which are actually bigger than they were this time last year, by making those cuts as visible and painful as possible. Yet, we have the Transposrtation secretary, Ray LaHood, getting letters from members of Congress, informing him that they are "deeply troubled by the prospects of subsidizing another costly, wasteful and risky high-speed rail project, particularly when our nation is facing a debt crisis that threatens the well-being of the current and future generations of Americans."
Okay, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I canNOT POSSIBLY be alone in thinking that this is a seriously major DUH!!!!
The Labor Department is seriously considering a high speed rail project between the cities of Victoville California and Las Vegas Nevada in an attempt to reduce the congestion on I-15 between those two cities. Thing is that Victorville is is 84.6 miles from Los Angeles, which takes approximately 1 hour and 23 minutes to travel by car IF you don't hit traffic.
Being a Montanan and living in the 4th largest state in the country, 84.6 miles on the Interstate is really no big whoop and I fail to see how the remaining 182.5 from Victorville to Las Vegas is going to be anymore of a burden to travel in the car I would have driven to get to Victorville. Especially, when taking the super-duper high speed train is going to cost me an estimated $89 smackers for each person in my vehicle. And don't forget the cost of parking my vehicle in the pay per spot parking lot which I am SURE will be built in addition to the super duper fast train. The gas would be cheaper for the 182.5 mile drive than a ticket and then I have the conveinence of my own transportation in Vegas.
If I-15 is so congested between those two points, then perhaps the less costly thing would be to fund the widening of I-15.
Besides which, there is already a train route between the two points...and it's the most lucrative route for Amtrack in the country. A ticket for one person....FROM LOS ANGELES and NOT Victorville is $55 with Amtrack right now.
So not only is the government considering funding 80% of this boondoggle, they are considering cutting off 82.5 miles from the present route and charging another $34 for the pleasure.
Does anyone in Washington sit down and simply pencil things out before opening their stupid mouths?

Seven Feet, Two Point Five Inches of Pigginess
Michelle Malkin has the blog post The Paper Skyscraper over on her blog to illustrate the ridiculousness of the the Affordable Healthcare Act ...so far. Twenty thousand pages, seven feet , two point 5 inches (7' 2.5") as it stands now with 828 pages added to this monstrosity last Friday.
The best comment about that, that I have read so far, was the question, "Yeah, but can it dunk?"
But wait, there's more.
Apparently, we were promised that getting healthcare through THE ACT would be a fairly simple process. I don't remember ever hearing that, but there are people who thought that it would be so. To them I say, "HahahahahahahahaahaHA!!!! When will you learn that NOTHING the government sticks it's nose into is EVER EVER EVER easy.
However, I digress.
Now, the newest information is that applying for all this "free" healthcare is going to be as simple as filing your tax return.
Bwhahahahahahahaha!
Suckers.....you people who fell for the idea of "free" healthcare are SUCKERS, I tell you.
FTA, " The government's draft application runs 15 pages for a three-person family. An outline of the online version has 21 steps, some with additional questions."
"Seven months before the Oct. 1 start of enrollment season for millions of uninsured Americans, the idea that getting health insurance could be as easy as shopping online at Amazon or Travelocity is starting to look like wishful thinking."
NOOOOOooooooo!!!! Really? Wishful thinking and government involvement?
"At least three major federal agencies, including the IRS, will scrutinize your application. (Goody, goody gumdrops!) Checking your identity, income and citizenship is supposed to happen in real time, if you apply online."
So the additional 15,000 IRS agents aren't going to be enough to scrutinize? Which other two major federal agencies are going to be checking out my application?
"That's just the first part of the process, which lets you know if you qualify for financial help. The government asks to see what you're making because Obama's Affordable Care Act is means-tested, with lower-income people getting the most generous help to pay premiums."
"Once you're finished with the money part, actually picking a health plan will require additional steps, plus a basic understanding of insurance jargon."
The Affordable Healthcare Act is going to be the stuff that just keeps on taking....and taking....and taking. Not only is our money less ours, so is our time, apparently.
US Government Says Fat Lesbians are a Problem
US Government Says Fat Lesbians are a Problem
So much so, that 1.5 million dollars have been doled out in the form of grants since 2011 to study the problem of fat lesbians.
The question is, "Why are 3/4 of lesbians obese when gay men tend to be on the skinny side?"
From the article:
“However, one area that is only beginning to be recognized is the striking interplay of gender and sexual orientation in obesity disparities,” it states. “It is now well-established that women of minority sexual orientation are disproportionately affected by the obesity epidemic, with it continues.
“In stark contrast, among men, heterosexual males have nearly double the risk of obesity compared to gay males.”
My husband declares often that he's a lesbian, yet he can't keep an ounce of fat on his frame. He's as skinny as a rail. Now I realize that is purely andectodal, but perhaps we need to be asking why so many gay men are skinny. Are they in fact closet lesbians?
The question should be complex enough to get some more money, that we don't have, thrown at it.
"S. Bryn Austin, Director of Fellowship Research Training in the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at Boston Children’s Hospital. Austin is also an Associate Professor in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the Harvard School of Public Health, and an Associate Epidemiologist at Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), which is a teaching hospital of (e.n. that bastion of higher education) Harvard Medical School."
"BWH first received a $778,622grant for the study in 2011, followed by a $741,378 grant in 2012, totaling $1,520,000. The project has the potential to be a five-year study."
Zippidy Do Dah!
In all seriousness though, am I the only one who thinks this is nothing more than a not-so-veiled-way to misappropriate government funds to gay and lesbian causes via the buzzword "study?"
But make sure the public can't tour the government buildings they pay for. Yes, the pressing issues of the obese lesbians are far too important than a bunch of 6th graders who have spent since September planned a trip to D.C. centered around a White House tour.
I wonder if Rosie O'Donnell will have a an opportunity to weigh in...

Smokey The Bear Ordered By Feds To Keep Hibernatin'
Yellowstone To Open Two Weeks Later Despite A 2.4% INCREASE In The Federal Budget
Who does this Obama Administration think they are fooling? Everyone knows dang good and well that the Obama's are NOT going to tighten their Jason Wu belts and stop their seperate vacation destinations or leave any of their fawning minions behind.
Close the White House, delay the opening of Yellostone, all while Obama sends the sequester to Portugal and eats cake.
Grief.
