In other news… — 8 Comments

  1. Not surprised at all about that professor at Brown University, Marion Orr, apologizing for inviting Ray Kelly — from his page on the university’s website:

    “He is currently gathering data for a study of the community organizing efforts of local affiliates of the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF), a national network of local, community-based organizations founded by the late Saul Alinsky.”

  2. While everyone is focusing on ACA little notice is being given to the major expansion of the Medicaid program to include single adults and non poor families. This is effectively national health care and a huge entitlement increase. It’s the camel’s nose under the tent.

  3. Other news: Snowden met with Hans Christian Stré¶bele in Russia to make arrangemnets to come to Germany, presumably to tell the Germans how they have been betrayed by the US. Stré¶bele is a Green member of Parliament, whose main lifetime accomplishment was supporting the RAF terrorists, serving as their lawyer, and smuggling messages to and from them while they were in jail. In other words, one sleazebag meets another.

    Point 2: According to a Washington Times piece yesterday, Obama will not attend the 150th Anniversary of the Gettysburg Address this year. On one hand, I am glad he won’t be there. On the other, this shows Obama’s feelings about America.

  4. Regarding the LAX shooter, on an earlier thread at Ace’s, commenter “pep” replied to the headline “LAX Shooter Has Unidentified Strong Anti-Government Views” by noting:

    Well, that narrows it down to about 70% of the country right now.

  5. What did the TSA do to that guy, feel up his girlfriend and confiscate all his imported wine and goods?

  6. @Ymarsakar

    That’s a question you can bet the MSM won’t ask.
    It reminds me of little kids: one complains to the parent that “he hit me FOR NO REASON whatsoever.”
    Sure…for no reason.

  7. Glick missed it: Barry’s threatening Bibi with an economic boycott that would destroy Israel’s economy.

    Consequently, Bibi is compelled to kick the can down the road.

    Barry bitterly resents AIPAC talking on the Hill. He fears a repeat of 2011.

    All of this is sure to come to a head in 2014.

    Iran is spooling up ever larger numbers of ultra-centrifuges.

    The ONE disadvantage of U235 explosive: utilization of neutrons is very, very poor. The mass required is so large that it’s unsuitable for missile warheads.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS-6_Sapwood

    The Sapwood/ R-7/ Semyorka was scaled large on the assumption that it should be able to throw either Uranium or Plutonium warheads.

    By the time it reached operational status Hydrogen Bombs had been perfected, making the original schemes dated. The Wiki claims that the Sapwood never reached operational status. This is false. The USSR had a single Sapwood base in Estonia during the Cuban Missile Crisis. It had three (3) launch pads. (!) That’s it.

    In contrast, America had hundreds of ICBMs and the vast air fleet of SAC.

    So, Kennedy entered the crisis holding five-of-a-kind — and folded his hand.

    If I remember correctly, Iran has no missile with Sapwood’s throw-weight.

    Which is to say that Iran is working with a fury to produce its own Hydrogen bomb.

    That Barry is foolish enough to permit Iran to get the Bomb should be enough reason to impeach him on the spot.

    The mullahs have no intention of starting an atomic war next year. Instead, the Bomb will permit them to ramp up al Quds attacks far and wide. Their primary target is the Sunni — particularly the Wahhabists of KSA.

    The break with Riyadh has occurred because the Arabs have finally figured out that Barry’s selling them down the river, which is unusual for an Arab.
