Seal raid on al-bagdhadi and dump him in the ocean right next to bin laden. Big applause. National nightmare over. Give obama another nobel peace prize. Democrat landslide. Immediate executive action on immigration now that the borders are safe from terrorists. Republicans look silly oh how could you ever doubt obama he keeps us safe from the boogeymen. When? October 12-20 is the window

[Cowgirl of Justice]

Here, have another jumbo shrimp, Bob.

[Mark17]

Is he going to “kill Osama” again?

Maybe he will close Gitmo, turn over all the terrorists to ISIS, so they can be "watched" to make sure they don't continue their terrorist activities.

[Mark17]

I watch that show is so I won’t miss it when Fatso finally strokes out.

Will you shed a tear when he does?

[Jed Eckert]

I wouldn't believe anything that Bob 'I paid a hooker with a check and she blackmailed me' Beckel says.

He's a complete moron in addition to everything else Jim from C-Town mentioned.

I know what it is. Ruth Bader Meinhof will resign and Holder will be nominated to SCOTUS. Automatic RAT turnout stimulator.

the “October Surprise” meme. Happened once so it must be it going to happen every time.

Happened many times.

See this Wikipedia entry for a chronology of October surprises.

• 1968 Humphrey vs. Nixon: LBJ tried convince voters of an end to the Vietnam War to help Humphry.
• 1980 Carter vs. Reagan - rumor was of a last-minute deal to release hostages. The opposite happened.
• 1992 Bush vs. Clinton - Democrats indicted Caspar Weinberger on Iran-Contra charges just four days before the election.
• 2000 Gore vs. Bush - the 24-year old DUI charge against Bush for driving too slow in a 30mph zone was released just before the election.
• 2003 California governor recall election - Charges of Arnold Schwarzenegger groping women on movie sets was released by the LA Times.
• 2006 midterm elections - Republican Mark Foley accused of molesting Congressional Pages.
• 2010 California Governor Election - Meg Whitman was accused by the California Nurses Association (of all groups) of employing an illegal alien housekeeper.

Pics of Bob, drunk, wearing one of these?

Your post brought back some mostly great memories. I don’t care much for very many Blacks anymore, but I loved much of Edwin Starr’s music. I hope he’s resting in peace.

I just hope that the terrorists have checked with Obama’s secretary to ensure that there is some open time on his schedule to handle whatever conflict that the terrorists decide to unfurl on America...if’n he has a golf date or has to go to a fund raiser, Obama will not even know about the event until he reads about in the newspaper, which will be about six months later...whatever video that they push as the cause of the attack, I just hope that it has better production value than the last one...

I could add:

• 1992 - California Senate race: Barbara Boxer release news in October that Republican opponent Bruce Herschensohn once attended a stripper club. Boxer wins.
• 1998 - California Senate race: Barbara Boxer releases news in October that Republican opponent Matt Fong (then ahead in the race) once donated campaign funds to an anti-gay group. Boxer won by 10%.
• 2002 - California Governor race: Democrat Gray Davis vs Republican Bill Simon. In August 2002, the California Superior Court finds Simon's company guilty of defrauding business partners in a pay phone company. Simon himself was not named, and the court of appeals later overturned the guilty verdict four years later. However, Davis went on to win the election.

Now even Jimmah Carter says we have to kill ISIS. Kerry was layin’t it on thick to the code pinkos about how mean thses bad guys are to women.

They are going to show those pics all over the media of McCain schmoozin’ it up with Bagdadhi and the boyz.

The lo infos and those who watch MSM haven’t seen those photos with those terrorists identified in them yet.

[Bigg Red]

Graphic looks much too masculine to be Obama.

[sport]

No.

[GOPJ]

We don’t own the press like they do - but we’ve got Drudge and FreeRepublic. It might be time for Republicans to think in terms of an “October Surprise”...

[InterceptPoint]

Graphic looks much too masculine to be Obama.

No doubt. But we are talking about an October Surprise here. That means the MSM gets to tell us what is going on. Any surprise will have to be some great accomplishment by O and it will have to be played up big time.

Yes, way to masculine. But wait for the MSM version. It will be even better.

What are our national security issues?

The FBI put out their top security issue report last month. Read an article about the report here...

http://freebeacon.com/national-security/fbi-national-domestic-threat-assessment-omits-islamist-terrorism/

or read the threads on Free Republic

or search for more articles with clips and maybe piece it together.

Anyway, the FBI report leaves out Muslim extremists but most of those groups have ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, which has members in the administration and probably in the FBI so those reports were wiped clean.

Anyone care to elaborate on what Jarrett has planned?

[mad_as_he$$]

How many of those were actually effective? Difference is regular hardball politics and game changing stuff. A surprise in an off election year will be spread over many candidates - not just one.

[defconw]

Bob Beckel grasping for relevancy?

[csmusaret]

You left out sweat hog, blowhard, and bully. He is also very inarticulate. He has great difficulty getting words past his flapping jowls and, as a result, is very hard to understand.
