I love that Snowden is a high-school drop-out. It has all the ‘elites’ stumbling around - attacking his life story: So, he stumbled as a youth - but ‘surprise’ he matured and pushed himself forward.

For comparison, let’s review the Rhodes’ Scholar; Bill Clinton. Such a fine human being!!!!!!

Megan Kelly invited a ‘criminal profiler’ on her show today in order to analyze Snowden’s body language. It was a perfect illustration of how ‘experts’ etc., have a need to pigeonhole individuals into categories.

In the televised interview; Edward Snowden does not use a teleprompter to describe his concerns; he presents his motivation rationally and thoughtfully. Profiler stated he ‘wanted notoriety and attention’. Should have gone to Jerry Springer or Roger Ailes????

All the talking heads are showing their bias against this ‘high school drop-out’.

Plenty of creative, successful drop-outs are the backbone of this Nation - but Bill Clinton is a Rhodes scholar. I rest my case;)

As far as abandoning his girlfriend and flight to Hong Kong - how would any of us behave once we made such a huge decision to ‘expose corruption’ in the most powerful Government agency?

To face charges of ‘treason’. That would put anyone in a fight or flight mode.

Putin probably wants to meet the girlfriend.

***How does a NOBODY with NO education and little military background wind up in a sensitive national security job
with access to our grid?***

BO’s education is rumor not fact but he certainly has NO military background.

Any other comparisons?

****Snowden is a hero.
He had it all , $200,000 a year good job etc., and Snowden gave it all up so that he could warn the American people..***

You might have noticed how being ‘a high school dropout’ precedes all media descriptions of this bright, articulate, self-made man. Clearly, he was not brain-washed in a liberal University. IMHO this is HUGE!!!!!!!

A better solution would be to make it illegal for any driver to rear-end said Jeeps. In fact, I think it is.

Reading the comments before yours was depressing. You Sir, are a treasure with a great sense of humor and an open heart.

Were it not for MILs there would be no-one to marry and no grandchildren.

I hope the MIL has plenty of hobbies or a job and no health problems. Moving to a new location could become isolating for her if she doesn’t socialize outside of her family and becomes bored/intrusive. Could happen.

Yessssssssssssssss...Rosie O’Donnell - and what a hoot if HC objected?

The modern windmills are an ugly blight on landscapes and beaches, cause hearing problems, cost taxpayers with Federal subsidies, are inefficient and kill both endangered raptors and common birds who would otherwise eat destructive insects.

There are better alternatives designed to capture the wind turbulence on Interstate highways. Low profile turbines could be placed along the shoulders to function. They would be hardly noticeable and not create noise or ugliness. Where are our best engineers when you need them?

Stephen Hawking is next???

Sounds great - so why are so many South Americans coming to the US?????

Have been retired for a few years and I advise everyone I meet to not retire as long as you are able to continue working. After years of hard work and routines you can get bored in a hurry unless you like joining clubs, playing golf, bird watching, cruises, shopping or gardening. Tried the retirement community - but it was a bad fit for me - so I left. More better for married couples IMHO.

I am lucky to have great, successful busy adult children who live fairly close but since I moved around a lot during my working years I don’t have a neighborhood clan or ‘old friends’ network of shared memories. Money is not the only concern for retirees - there are health issues and loss of routines.....so plan to get involved in some (cheap or money-making) creative hobbies and stay active.

The election of Bill Clinton to the US Presidency was the beginning of the end for the US. He brought disgrace and contempt to the office emboldening our enemies and appalling our allies. No heads of state trusted or respected him. A contemptible low-life and it blows my mind that citizens still attend his functions and politicians seek his counsel& endorsement.

What is even more outrageous is how Hillary Clinton has clung to his status as a former POTUS for personal and professional gain. Many women, less fortunate educationally & financially have chucked such spousal scum out the door, on principle and because they had integrity& self respect. With more than one child to support without taxpayer dollars.

****freeze all immigration until the unemployment rate falls to 5%****

Deport the unemployed;) That’ll do it!!!

**They are afraid of muslims**

Bingo!

Media cowards have not forgotten the Danish newspaper which printed cartoons ridiculing Mohammed. Big problem.

‘Refugee status’ asylum (for those dislocated by the ME civil wars) should apply only to mothers and their children under age 10. All other able-bodied men & women should remain to fight for their territory against tyrants and dictators.

It seems to be a common, human trait - sooner or later ‘victims’ who are helped - resent their benefactors/saviors. Some sort of guilt or loss of manhood. The guilt of gratitude turns to hatred.

Public education!!!!! kan’t spill, cahn’t tipe, kent reed!!!!

Can we please not use the term ‘Planned Parenthood’. We should call it Unplanned Pregnancy, or Promiscuity Planning or Elective Infanticide or Murder. Inc.

Not one parent results from this organized extinction of babies.

Simple solution:

Bring back the draft! Boot camp with ‘father role models’ will focus the minds of our ‘lost generations’ of young men.

Patriotism is polished in the camaraderie of the military.

WRT to muslim wannabee terrorists - they should be monitored, arrested and sent back to the ME. And stop ‘refugee’ immigration. If a human being will not fight for his native country - what makes us think he/she will fight for the US????

Best Military Quote:

“When I joined the military it was illegal to be homosexual. Then it became optional. And now it’s legal. I’m getting out before Obama makes it mandatory.”

***Attach all money spent per child to the child, not the school system, and parental authority is restored.***

Education should be privatized. Capitalism and competition is the best answer.

***Government based on buying votes is doomed to failure.***

Also playing God by artificially manipulating procreation through contraception, abortion, homosexual coupling, IVF, rental wombs, eggs and sperm donation.

In a few decades there will be no ‘natural’ families. Humans will be required to register sperm and eggs to eliminate ‘incestuous’ pregnancies, similar to the former ‘blood tests’ for a marriage license.

That darned First Amendment.

****He complained that “there are no values anymore” and “people can’t control themselves.”****

Self realization?

Matt. 7.1 Judge not - lest ye be judged!

Shep now reporting that 2 years ago a foreign government contacted US officials to monitor the dead suspect. The FBI found nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Suspect is alive - surrounded and still moving.

Shepard Smith just reported “the second suspect is incapacitated”

Apologies for being unaware of the Chechen brutality or Islam connection until the 2004 Beslan massacre. But it would seem that in 1999 these ACPC members should have been repulsed by their savage reputation and Islamofascist tendencies. Strange bedfellows indeed.

Stunning statistics showing the increase in claims and benefits over the past decades.

Attorneys’ ads to get these payments are the scandal.

Good research AC

A lot of Jewish & Catholic names on that list. Of course, we must remember that anyone who was the enemy of our enemy The Soviet Empire - was our friend.

I keep posting the comment from BO to Putin: “I will have more flexibility when I am reelected”. Have to wonder if Putin asked him to help with his Chechen problem.

This manhunt is the most wall-to-wall covered incident I can ever remember.

For perspective: I’m sure the post-mortem photo doesn’t compare to the grisly photos of Kermit Gosnell’s victims or of Jodi Arias’ dead boyfriend. The first trial which was never covered and the second trial - which (thankfully) has disappeared from the MSM.

Sheltering in place doesn’t seem very American does it? Soon the general public will want to get out and about their business.

Looks like one of those Weather Channel’s Armageddon: “It Could Happen Tomorrow”

These are the times that call for a ‘well regulated militia’

*****Democraps have embraced EVERY one of the so-called progressive ideas that have killed an untold number of Americans over the years.*****

Planned Parenthood is their crowning achievement. 60million and counting.

On questionnaires that require ‘race’ notations. I refuse to mark Caucasian. I check ‘other’ and print Anglo-Saxon.

***George Bush had no intention of closing the Border***

Politicians separate the immigration problem into vote getting: Most prominent and political is #1 the Southern border with cheap labor for corporations or Dem Latino voters. #2 Terrorism in the skies from ME cells.

The other free-loaders & terrorists are getting through checkpoints by passing as young ‘student types’. They are costing us in tax paid subsidized college tuition or welfare......and now LIVES!!!!

Sorry Pab - I have no idea. Don’t watch Carney, Can’t watch BO and Joe Biden makes my brain itch;)

“we’ve already done, because of you, some really good things,” Biden said. “Number one, the president is already lining up some additional executive actions he’s going to be taking later this week.”

Number One!!! Does Biden even speak English????

Does appear to be him.

Love the comment re: John Kerry ” Foreign students are afraid to come to the US because of all the guns”

****What happened to morally straight?****

Young pre-pubescent boys (and girls) are naturally inclined to have ‘clubs’ and to ‘belong’ without the opposite sex intruding on their stuff.

The Boy Scouts provided such an outlet with the benefit of a moral code and constructive activities. Why these outstanding institutions have to accommodate sexual sophistry is beyond me. Sexuality of any kind has no place in these groups. We were too busy tying knots, making camp fires and assembling tents.

OMG!!!

Do you suppose Vladimir Putin pressured BO to stop these US groups who were supporting the Chechens????

Perhaps this explains BO advising Putin that he “could be more flexible after I am re-elected”.

***They are saying these kiddos in US for 10 years.***

Their length of ‘residency/citizenship’ status is most confusing. Their passport activity would settle it.

On the irony - or more likely the deliberate placement of the Lord & Taylor bomb. If the report can be believed: Their MOTHER WAS ARRESTED FOR SHOPLIFTING at that store.

****Just reported on local Fox 25 station that these two were registered to vote in Cambridge MA. (I wonder if they were naturalized... or is this just Cambridge being a “world” city.)****

If this information is accurate - we should question the difference between ‘documented’ and ‘undocumented’.

I prefer ‘undocumented’ Juan, the Catholic - who is working his butt off for minimum wage to feed his family....as opposed to ‘documented’ students who are in the US to get tax payer subsidized college degrees while they despise our Constitution, our Christianity and our lives.

****Might it be that there’s a whole cluster of these guys working around BBC?****

Certainly seems to be the case...and also looks as if they waited until the perverts were dead or nearly dead before making any effort to expose them. A massive cover-up of the socialist BBC and its minions.

Just testing the ‘more flexibility after I am elected” promise??

I assumed (incorrectly) that the two murderers would be long gone from Boston, probably via Canada. Now, it appears that they were planning more destruction, in the same area, with additional IEDs and guns (according to some reports).

Based on their ‘hanging around’, robbing, killing, car-jacking and other mayhem - looks as if they were/are ‘slow motion suicide’ bombers.

Now we have to wonder if there is a terrorist cell of more than 2 scumbags.

Tips should be coming in from cab-drivers, airlines, motel clerks, rental car agencies, hobby/tech stores and ATM machine photo logs.

Canadian border guards would be their closest escape route from Boston.

They are long gone from Boston.

He pretty much did post everything but the comments.

Insightful post.

The ribbons, bunnies and balloons are trite, superficial offerings.

Private, silent prayer in somber reflection would be far more appropriate - but this is the age of exhibitionism and excess - regardless of the occasion.

And the leading from behind continues.

Ready to dispute that she was HALF naked - since she had all her naughty bits covered.

However, because there are about 300 pounds of flesh visible - she clearly is 2/3rds nekkid.

Hard to find the silver lining in any news. Perhaps we are overloaded with information...tweetering...blogging...freeping, radio scanning and TV dipping that we are missing the forest for the trees.

Stressful ain’t it?

Take a break, a breath and say a prayer.

Many regular Brits were supportive of BO’s election until he tossed Churchill’s bust from the Oval Office.

He surely carries a grudge on behalf of his BRITISH father and truly is an Anglophobe. Not a Statesman - just a small, spiteful child.

Add to the ‘politically correct’ list: anti-UK!!!!! Oscar Wilde is not amused.

Thinking how frustrated friends and families of the victims must be.
