Barack Obama, our morality arbiter

For his entire political career, Barack Obama has thought of himself as this nation's moral arbiter. Barack Obama isn't special. He's a legend in his own mind. According to this report, "Obama spoke at the Obama Foundation's Democracy Forum on Thursday, where he called for a two-state solution and an end to the 'occupation.'" It isn't surprising that he didn't identify "what occupation he meant."

He's quoted as saying "All of this is taking place against the backdrop of decades of failure to achieve a durable peace for both Israelis and Palestinians. One that is based on genuine security for Israel, a recognition of its right to exist, and a peace that is based on an end of the occupation and the creation of a viable state and self-determination for the Palestinian people."

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that you shouldn't attempt to put Palestinians right next to Israelis. Palestinians hate Jews to the point that they've stated in Hamas's charter that their goal is to eliminate the Jewish state. Further, Israel used to inhabit the land currently held by Jordan in addition to the land it was given by the British.

Palestine never was a nation. They were more of a tribe. Historically speaking, they used to live in northern Africa, Tunisia to be specific. Why shouldn't the West Bank and Gaza be given to Israel because they won those lands during the 6-Day war? That's when Egypt, Jordan and Syria tried eliminating Israel Israel in 1967. Their problem was that Israel's military wasn't just better. Israel's military was superior.

In this video from the Foundation's pontificating session, Barack Obama asked a key question:

He asked himself "There's still a part of me that's saying 'Well, was there something else I could've done?" That's the best question I've heard him ask of himself. Let me reply. Yes, Barack, there is something different that you should've done.

First, you should've ripped the 2-State Solution blueprint into confetti-sized pieces. Telling Israel that the proposal for peace and prosperity is to live next to homicidal terrorists isn't just insane. It's cruel. That shouldn't happen anytime.

Hamas is essentially the 21st Century version of the Nazis. They hate Jews every bit as much as the Nazis did. If the world looked away from Israel, there's no doubt in my mind that Hamas would attempt another Holocaust. The next thing that Obama shouldn't have done is negotiate the JCPOA with Iran. Iran used the pallets of cash from Obama's administration to fund proxy wars against Israel. What part of that sounds wise? Third, Obama shouldn't have started his administration with his apology tour. That's a sign of weakness. It sent the signal that they could trample him. Other than those things, he did ok. Almost.

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Image
Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
