SAY WHAT!?!?!?
I understand and agree with you. Still, remember all this is really about power and money. Cuba is just one issue being floated out to distract us from other, more important issues. I agree we need to address the Cuba issue but we cannot forget other issues.
This Meet the Press story on Scalese....I guess they didn’t get the memo.
For all over the Blogosphere the story, as properly vetted, is that Scalese did NOT attend an event by some follower of David Duke. He attended an event scheduled at the same venue but later in the day.
some flack of OBama evidently found this tidbit and sent out the talking points. Chuck Todd took the false football and ran with it.
It didn’t help any that Republicans, with air between their legs....immediately came out and apologized for being around David Duke cause it doesn’t matter if it’s a lie...
THE REPUBLICANS WILL APOLOGIZE.
Especially Scalese....what the hell was he thinking?
Dems ONE, Republicans...ZERO.
Go Ducks!
Drove down to the Rose Bowl and enjoyed the best FB game in my life. One more for the Championship.
DUCKS
You earned it!
It’s sometimes hard to get a coherent word out of Boehner.
Disgraced Ex-Congressman Attacks John Boehner in New Book
Ney’s most dramatic accusations are against his fellow Ohioan John Boehner, the man he once saw as his biggest rival to someday being speaker. He describes Boehner as “a bit lazy” and “a man who was all about winning and money. He was a chain-smoking, relentless wine drinker who was more interested in the high life—golf, women, cigarettes, fun, and alcohol.” He said Boehner “spent almost all of his time on fundraising, not policy.” He “golfed, drank constantly, and took the easy way legislatively.” Ney recalled Boehner handing out checks on the House floor and said his ties with a tobacco company were so tight that lawmakers could get free cigarettes from Boehner’s office. His golfing, Ney said, was “nonstop” and “paid for by lobbyists.”
Ney wrote: “If the Justice Department were ever to make John produce receipts for his addiction to golf just for the years from 1995 to 2004, he would be hard-pressed to comply. John got away with more than any other Member on the Hill.”
The most inflammatory accusation against Boehner in the book is Ney’s contention that he ended his reelection campaign after winning the primary in 2006 only after Boehner, then the majority leader, summoned the cash-strapped and embattled congressman to his office and told him if he quit the race, Boehner would take care of him. “If you resign the next day, I will personally guarantee you a job comparable to what you are making, and raise legal defense money for you that should bury all this Justice Department problem for you,” Boehner said, according to Ney. He said he pressed Boehner, repeating the terms and getting assurance that the offer was “ironclad.” When Ney called back the next day to accept the deal, he wrote that he again repeated the terms to Boehner, who agreed. “Because of Boehner’s promise, I stepped aside,” he wrote. But Ney said Boehner did not keep his word. “I had been lied to and ditched,” Ney said.

“I’m not calling anyone an alcoholic, being a recovering alcoholic, but I’ve got to tell you John Boehner is a constant drinker of wine. He’s been seen with lobbyists for decades on a nightly basis and drinking. I’m not judging him, but I think it’s part of the story.
Thanks to the Ducks for beating Florida State (one of my least favorite teams for a variety of reasons). The best TV game I’ve seen in a while was Ohio State vs. Alabama! Hopefully the Ducks-Bucks game will be an exciting match-up!
Chuck Todd, Tool and pawn of this administration, asks some military advisor....well allow me to paraphrase:
“Even though we SAY the wars (in Iraq and Afghanistan) are over, they’re really not.”
Say what?
Doesn’t the fact that he even has to phrase it that way speak volumes with the games that this administration is playing?
America doesn’t HAVE to lose wars. We just get tired of them.
Witness Vietnam, then Iraq and now Afghanistan.
We used to win wars but we had to go in there and make the people act right....witness Japan.
It ain’t rocket science.
Doesn't Ted Cruz have a similar problem? His father is from Cuba, and he himself was born in Canada.
Not withstanding that Obama had a foreign father who never even became a citizen... Still, he got elected and the powers-that-be let him serve.
I expect to see barking Leftist moonbats go ape$hit over this issue and no one in the press will see the irony nor bring up how crazy THESE birthers are...
No War Eagles or Roll Tides from me this year...
Still, we had a great run over the past half decade!!!
I’m rooting for ya over THE OS!
Yeah its a long story.....
True. Sorry I misstated it.
I hope to Hell they do.

I think it’s a great distinction that some of your best US patriots are first-generation Americans.
Too bad we can’t collect up a few that were born in the US AFTER their parents became citizens.
Should be one of the great games. It is speed against speed, but they have not seen our speed yet. It will be whoever does not hold onto the ball will lose and likely won in the last minute.
Classic Big 10 Pac 10 match-up for everything. Too bad its not at the Rose Bowl.
The Nole fans were friendly before the game and pretty shocked after. They thought this game was more annoying than anything on their way to a second NC.
Bring on the Buckeyes
