Montel Williams Delivers Emotional Speech To Military Heroes — What Happens At The Two-Minute Mark Reveals His Character
"Williams shared his observations about what he viewed as a declining interest from 'celebrities' who he claims are no longer showing up at VA hospitals and supporting the wounded soldiers as they had in the past.
'We’re at war,' Williams said, “Guys are still dying. How dare this nation treat us this way.'
In his speech, the television personality went on to propose that the administration push for a 'surge' in medical care like the military surge that the president pushed for in Afghanistan five years ago." . . . TheBlaze

What would you expect from a crotch-salute president? - Webmaster |
"Emails and VA memos obtained exclusively by The Daily Beast provide what is among the most comprehensive accounts yet of how high-level VA hospital employees conspired to game the system. It shows not only how they manipulated hospital wait lists but why—to cover up the weeks and months veterans spent waiting for needed medical care. If those lag times had been revealed, it would have threatened the executives’ bonus pay.
What’s worse, the documents show the wrongdoing going unpunished for years, even after it was repeatedly reported to local and national VA authorities. That indicates a new troubling angle to the VA scandal: that the much touted investigations may be incapable of finding violations that are hiding in plain sight." . . . DailyBeast

To Honor America's Veterans Memorial Day, Obama Headed To Golf Course
"With at least 40 veterans dead from negligence at VA hospitals nationwide, President Obama on Saturday paid lip service to America's military -- then headed to the golf course, apparently to honor our brave soldiers.
In a taped weekend address (so as not to delay his tee time), Obama said: 'As Commander in Chief, I believe that taking care of our veterans and their families is a sacred obligation. It's been one of the causes of my presidency.'” . . . TruthRevolt
U.S. Hero Waited 20 Hours On Benghazi Rooftop While Crotch-Salute President Went Campaigning
"Diplomatic security agent David Ubben, like former Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, ran into the Special Mission Compound (SMC) to help save US officials under siege in Benghazi. Ubben was struck by a mortar round that killed Woods and Doherty. His leg was shredded. Ubben was forced to wait twenty hours before a plane was sent to pick him up.
While Ubben was waiting for help with a shredded leg the Obama White House called YouTube and the president flew off to campaign in Las Vegas." . . . GatewayPundit

Unmasking The Imperial Presidency
“'Imperial Presidency' perfectly describes what the Obama Administration has become as it increasingly violates the limits on its power defined by the U.S. Constitution. Criticisms of how President Obama is overstepping his authority are now being heard from all sides of the political spectrum.
A remarkable 33-page report posted on the internet by the Majority Leader of the House, Eric Cantor, proves how imperial the Obama Administration has become. This easy-to-read report (.pdf file), which can be downloaded by anyone, details dozens of examples of how the current occupant of the White House is exercising powers the Constitution doesn’t give him." . . .

Pro-Life Group’s Report: Planned Parenthood Enabling Rape, Sex Trafficking, Child Abuse
"A just-released investigation from pro-life organization Live Action accuses Planned Parenthood of complicity with statutory rape, sex trafficking, and child abuse–all funded by American taxpayers.
'An organization this unscrupulous and dangerous – an instrumental prosecutor of the ‘war on women’ we hear so much about in the news cycle . . . should not receive even a cent of American taxpayers’ income,' said Live Action founder Lila Rose in a statement Wednesday morning. Rose and her investigators posed as underage girls seeking abortions to hide sexual relationships with older men at nine Planned Parenthood clinics throughout the country." . . . DailyCaller

Progressive Fruitcakes In Boulder County Consider Recognizing 'Rights Of Nature' In Comprehensive Plan Update
"That statement, based on a proposal submitted by the Audubon Society of Boulder County, might not go far enough to satisfy some of the people who have been pushing for more than a year to have Boulder County declare that plants and animals have certain legal rights. It doesn't actually include the phrase 'rights of nature,' for example.
It may still go too far, though, for some foes of the 'rights of nature' movement, including people who warn that writing such a policy into an official government document would give plants and wildlife the same legal standing as human beings." . . . DailyCamera
Progressive Liberals, Of Course, Ignore The More Troubling Close-On Stabbing Deaths And Go For the Shooting
"[As usual] many Democrats – Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) among them – have shamelessly attacked the NRA and pushed for more gun control in the wake of the heinous May 23 Santa Barbara attacks.
To do this they have seized on three shooting deaths but completely ignored three stabbing deaths, although stabbing deaths are far more personal – requiring the killer to be very close to his victims. On May 24 Breitbart News reported that attacker Elliot Rodger stabbed three people to death 'in his residence' before getting into his car to shoot and kill three persons, wound seven others, and run down four others with his car." . . .

When The Bush Administration Was Accused Of Blowing A CIA Cover Sitting In Washington, D.C. The Democrat Party And It's Fawning Media Said It Was 'Treason!!' But Under Obama With This CIA Cover Blown Overseas, Well It's Just Another Mistake By Barack. (Don't forget the Progressive media's mission continues: 'It Ain't News Until We Say It Is.")
"Valerie Plame doesn't deny that blowing the cover of the CIA station chief in Afghanistan is a serious matter. It's just that, discussing the issue at a Wednesday evening forum sponsored by The Atlantic, Plame seemed to view the outing of the CIA's top spy on the front lines in the Afghan war as more of an embarrassment than an outrage.
'My understanding is … it was a military aide who compiled this list of those that were greeting the president when he came,' Plame said. "Colossally stupid, but I think it was inadvertent. It was an error … really stupid.
The White House apparently has said that they're going to do an investigation, and they'll find someone who's really embarrassed at the end of it.' The leak, if that's what it can be called, happened over the weekend as President Obama made a surprise visit to Afghanistan." . . . WashingtonExaminer

Seattle Police Suing Obama's Eric Holder For Forcing Their Officers To 'Take Unnecessary Risks'
"Saying new policies stemming from an agreement between the city and the U.S. Department of Justice created a 'bold, new disregard for police authority in the streets of Seattle,' putting officers and the public in unreasonable danger, 126 individual police officers—with no involvement from their union—have united to sue Seattle city officials and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.

OMG! Pay-To-Pee Teacher Faces No Discipline; Furious Mom Vows To Homeschool Child Who Wet Her Pants In School
"Last week, two Vancouver, Wash. third graders said they wet their pants after their teacher would not let them use the bathroom. The students, both girls, said the reason for the denial was that they hadn’t accumulated enough pretend classroom money to pay for privilege.
The unidentified teacher will not be punished in any way as a result of one investigation of the incidents, a teachers union representative told The Columbian. A separate investigation of the same incident based on livid mother Jasmine Al-Ayadhi’s complaint remains pending." . . . DailyCaller

"Another little [American] boy has gotten in trouble at a taxpayer-funded public school for having something – or, in this case, drawing something – that represents a gun but isn’t actually anything remotely approaching a real gun.
This week, a second-grade teacher in Colorado filed a behavioral report on a boy after he drew a picture of a gun because she instructed him to go outside, look up at the clouds and draw what he saw. The incident unfolded at Talbott Elementary School in Colorado Springs, reports local CBS affiliate KKTV." . . . DailyCaller

Voters Loving A Crotch-Salute President Has Consequences On Everyone. Obama's Elitist State Department Leaves Pregnant Christian To Hang Who Is Married To American Citizen With Two American Children
"Meriam Yehya Ibrahim is clinging to her faith, even though her country has condemned her, and her husband’s country – the U.S. – has thus far abandoned her to a death sentence. Ibrahim’s attorney, Osman Mubarak, said Sunday in a radio interview that his client still has not received any firm assistance from the U.S. beyond empty declarations, even after the case received international media attention in recent days.
Yet Ibrahim, the Sudanese woman sentenced to be hanged to death for purportedly leaving Islam and marrying an American Christian, has no plans to renounce her Christian faith in order to avoid the death penalty." . . . WND

"Since we reported statements from Google’s consulting optometrist about the eye pains associated with using Google Glass, things have been, well, rocky. Over the past week, we’ve had a series of contentious discussions with Google — it’s almost started to feel like a bad breakup.
As soon as our story went up, Google called us with their complaints — problems with tenor, tone and attitude. They’ve also offhandedly claimed that we took the doctor’s quotes “out of context,” but when we’ve asked for exact examples of what they meant, we heard nothing back. While we understand their feelings from a PR perspective, Google hasn’t been able to contest a single fact reported in our story." . . . BetaBeat

The FDA does not require that ink companies disclose the ingredients contained in their inks. They are considered proprietary (trade secrets). These chemicals can contain chemicals that cause cancer, are capable of causing mutations, birth defects or other immune reactions. The FDA does not list cancer as its possible health risks. They only cite infection, allergic reactions, keloids, granulomas, removal difficulties and potential issues with MRI complications.
