What's Worse: Word out of tribunes in the United Kingdom say that the elder Boston Bomber tried to get a visa into Saudia Arabia to visit Mecca. But the government ascertained he was an Al-Queda terrorist, denied him admission and notified the United States in writing. This has been denied by both the White House and Homeland (In) Security, but it was apparently getting big play in the media until this afternoon. At that time, the Boston Police Department announced they had arrested three other men in connection with the Boston Bombers. Since then, the big news had been, naturally, about the Boston Bombing arrestees.However, as manipulative as the Obama regime is, one wonders if it didn't push the Boston Police Department to make the arrests to divert the people's attention away from what may be another egregious failuer in counter-terrorism by this country. Keep an eye on this issue because it may be in the process of being deliberately swept under the rug.
What's Better:
Meg Simmons, an activist and university talk show host at the University of Wyoming had supposedly been written an obscene, intimidating message on the school's facebook by a Republican. This aroused the easily-aroused young students, and everyone flocked to her support against this Republican. However, the police finally got around to checking her story and ascertained that she had written the despicable message to herself. Kudos to the police and to the truth. A pathetic young woman indeed.
What's Better
An alert citizen in California noticed a woman taking two bottles out of her Starbuck's bag and putting them on a shelf at Starbuck's. Then she stole two bottles of orange juice and put them into her Starbuck's bag.
The citizen watched her leave and get into her car. He wrote the license plate number down, and the police were called. It was ascertained that a lethal dose of toxin had been added to the orange juice in the bottles.
Kudos to this alert citizen. I hope the city authorities have the decency to thank him publicly. I heard Obama thanking a long list of law enforcement agencies after the younger Boston Bomber had been
(unnecessarily?) shot and arrested, but he didn't bother to thank the woman who had found the bomber. It wasn't the police. That's this administration's war on the individual. I also have to say that one mature, veteran police officer probably could have walked up to that boat and gotten the bomber's voluntary surrender without firing a shot. Law enforcement was looking at him through an unltra-violet device. He was lying down without a weapon showing. I saw that much on a picture run on page one of the Wall Street Journal. Having said that, the same approach could have been used at Ruby Ridge, Idaho and Waco, Texas. All that bloodshed, the killing of almost a hundred women, men, children, and at least one unborned baby could have avoided as well as the unintended consequences such as the Timothy McBay bombing in Utah that killed -what?- more than a hundred, mostly little children..
What's Better:
Are you noticing how Obama triangles somebody else into what is his responsibility? He did it again at his press conference. Someone asked him about the Benghazi Truthers at the FBI and the Department of "Justice" being intimidated and having to get lawyers. That was a dyad:
the president and an issue in a department of the government that he controlled. Immediately, he triangled in the Justice Department, saying that they knew about the issue, not him. But if an obscure gay basketball player comes out, Obama knows about that right away and is on the phone to him pronto. Couldn't make a call to save four brave men at Benghazi including the US Ambassador, but he sure can call a gay to give him his support. Do you remember Truman having a sign on his desk in the Oval Office at the White House that read, "The Buck Stops Here?" Obama should have a sign on his desk that reads, "The Buck Get Passed Here!"
