 Hilly never had an inspector general at State -   Bloomberg: “One of the many unanswered questions of the Hilly Clinton e-mail story has been: Whose job was it to raise and address concerns about her exclusive use of a private account? According to open government advocates, it would have been the agency’s permanent, independent Inspector General—someone nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate—if such a person had existed. For five years, including all of Clinton’s time as secretary, the State Department’s Office of Inspector General never had a confirmed inspector.…By September 2013, several months after Clinton left State, the department finally had a permanent inspector, and the department recently released a report documenting how few e-mails the State Department has saved for government records.”  -Fox News  

 
 Immigration activists back Warren’s symbolic non-candidacy    
Buzzfeed: “Some of the activists who made immigration a difficult issue for President nObama in 2014 are now signing onto the effort to draft Sen. Elizabeth Warren, or some other Democrat, to challenge Hilly Clinton. …The latest participants: Arturo Carmona, executive director of Presente Action, which counts 300,000 members nationwide, and Erika Andiola, a national DREAMer activist, who played a key role in the fight for nObama’s executive actions on immigration.”  -Fox News  
 
 
 O’Malley revs up core backers -   WaPo: “Martin O’Malley’s leading supporters left an afternoon gathering in Baltimore on Monday more convinced than ever that he will move forward with a 2016 presidential bid, several participants in the event said. The former Maryland governor, who’s said he will probably make a decision by May, huddled with more than 150 donors and other boosters at the Baltimore Hilton for what was billed as an ‘issues conference.’”  -Fox News  
 
 
 nOBAMA CHIEF OF STAFF DENOUNCES ISRAEL’S ‘50-YEAR   OCCUPATION’ OF PALESTINE 
NPR: “Through his chief of staff, President nObama is strongly countering rhetoric from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on a two-state, Israeli-Palestinian solution. ’An occupation that has lasted for almost 50 years must end, and the Palestinian people must have the right to live in and govern themselves in their own sovereign state,’ Denis McDonough, President nObama's chief of staff, said Monday at the annual conference of J Street, a left-leaning pro-Israel group.”  -Fox News  
 
 
 Bipartisan worries: 84 percent of House members sign letter warning   nObama on Iran -   The Hill: “A letter to President nObama signed by 367 members of Congress warns that lawmakers must be satisfied that any Iranian nuclear agreement must ‘foreclose any pathway to a bomb’ before they lift sanctions against Tehran. The letter, which was drafted in early March but released on Monday, warns nObama that ‘permanent sanctions relief from congressionally-mandated sanctions would require new legislation’ from Congress. ‘Congress must be convinced that its terms foreclose any pathway to a bomb, and only then will Congress be able to consider permanent sanctions relief,’ reads the letter, led by Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce (R-Calif.) and ranking member Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.).”   -Fox News

 More nObama Lies – Border-Busting Somalis Reported By ICE  
(rickwells.us) - There’s a reason why it appears that terrorists haven’t figured out the United States’ southern border is wide open, offering them free access to the United States...It’s because we’re, as is typical, being fed a lie that puts our citizens at risk but keeps the politicians safe. They can still pretend to be doing their jobs. A former U.S. Marine and mercenary involved in the Iran-Contra affair, Joe S. Adams Jr, operates a security service in the Arizona desert which engages the illegal aliens crossing into the United States and holds them for pickup by immigration authorities. His group works on behalf of ranchers and citizens in the area who are being forced to provide their own security in the vacuum created by the nObama regime’s refusal to uphold their constitutional obligations. On Wednesday Adams notified the Gateway Pundit of an incident which troubled him on the southern border. He reported that several Somali men had been apprehended crossing the border into Arizona. The ICE officials who retrieved the illegal invaders from a terrorist nation told the rancher whose property they were being held on that they were Mexicans. When the rancher disputed their obviously false claims, the ICE agent informed him that all apprehended illegals were mandated by the DHS hierarchy to be classified as either Mexican or Central American. That’s one way to cover for terrorists crossing into the United States.

 Saudi Arabia launches airstrikes in Yemen, ambassador says  
(foxnews.com) - Saudi Arabia launched airstrikes against the Houthi rebels in Yemen early Thursday, one day after the U.S.-backed Yemeni president was driven out of the country...President nObama has authorized the provision of logistical and intelligence support to the military operations, National Security Council spokesperson Bernadette Meehan said late Wednesday night. She added that while U.S. forces were not taking direct military action in Yemen, Washington was establishing a Joint Planning Cell with Saudi Arabia to coordinate U.S. military and intelligence support. He said the Houthis, widely believed to be backed by Iran, "have always chosen the path of violence." He declined to say whether the Saudi campaign involved U.S. intelligence assistance.       http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/03/25/saudi-arabia-launches-airstrikes-in-yemen-ambassador-says/

 Enough Of The Gloom And Doom Generalities, Provide Specifics  
(rickwells.us) - Hanoi John Kerry is setting “climate change” as a priority and says that he and nObama “could not agree more that this is a threat to the planet itself, it is a national security threat, it is a health threat, it’s an environmental threat, it’s an economic threat.”...He must be talking about the regime’s plans to address the non-existent danger that is largely beyond our realm of influence. He said, “We’re spending billions upon billions, a hundred and ten billion dollars last year on the damages that occurred because of the increased levels of major weather events around the world. Droughts that are 500 year droughts not a hundred year droughts. Places that have less and less water, food that is less produced where it used to be.” If that kind of investment or wasteful spending is taking place, maybe he should be compelled to provide us with a few specifics as the exact nature of the events we are attempting to mitigate. What precisely did we spend the $110 billion on, who received it and what were the benefits if any? Who determined we are fighting a 500 year drought and if we are was man supposedly responsible for the one that happened in the year 1515? Were we burning too much coal and driving too many miles then as well?       Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qx7TFUXD5dU

 The Jeffrey Epstein Affair Imperils Hilly Clinton’s Presidential   Prospects 
(Ken Silverstein) - Why is no one in the D.C. political class and media bubble talking about the Jeffrey Epstein affair? Well, it’s not true that they’re not talking about it at all; they’re just not (for the most part) talking about it honestly or asking the right questions. And the right questions are...Exactly how tight is the friendship between former President and potential future first gentleman Bill Clinton and Mr. Epstein, who owns a private island in Florida and is now accused of having sex with girls as young as 12 and procuring young girls for sex with other friends of his? What was Bill Clinton doing on the island with Mr. Epstein on multiple occasions and why did he fly overseas on Mr. Epstein’s plane at least 10 times? What hardball PR and legal tactics will Hilly Clinton’s campaign use to try to make this potential problem—which could potentially derail her planned presidential bid—disappear? Will those tactics work, or is Ms. Clinton’s campaign already dead, even if the exact time of the funeral is not yet known?       http://observer.com/2015/03/the-jeffrey-epstein-affair-imperils-hillary-clintons-presidential-prospects/

 Benghazi Remains a Major Scandal Even Without New Revelations  
(Roger Aronoff) - As with so many issues, when it comes to Benghazi, the media are divided into two camps...The liberal, mainstream media condemn any and all concerns about the 2012 Benghazi attacks as a phony scandal, while many in the conservative media wonder what damaging information the Clinton emails and the Select Committee on Benghazi investigation could bring to light. However, the Benghazi scandal has moved well past the question of whether a cover-up has occurred, and whether or not it can be proven. The record of what has already been released definitively demonstrates that a government cover-up of Benghazi is ongoing, far-reaching, and damaging to America’s interests at home and abroad. The question is not who is responsible; the question is, when will the ringleaders be held accountable?       http://www.aim.org/aim-column/benghazi-remains-a-major-scandal-even-without-new-revelations/?utm_source=AIM+-+Daily+Email&utm_campaign=email032615&utm_medium=email

 nObama’s Kabuki Dance with Iran Fueling Mullahs’ Hegemony   
(Retired Adm. James A. Lyons) - The current Kabuki dance ongoing in Geneva between Secretary of State Hanoi John Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Jamad Zarif regarding an agreement on Iran’s nuclear weapons program is a sham...Its outcome was pre-ordained many years ago by President nObama in his secret communications with the Iranian mullahs in 2008– at least according to one report. These secret communications were exposed in a August 29, 2014 article written by Michael Ledeen in PJ Media and drew little attention then, but now must be addressed. According to Ledeen, shortly after Barack nObama clinched the Democratic nomination for president on June 3, 2008, he also opened a secret communication channel to the Iranian mullahs.  The message was that they should not sign any nuclear agreement with the Bush administration on preventing Iran from achieving a nuclear weapon capability. He informed them that he would be much easier to deal with once he assumed the presidency. He further assured the mullahs that he was a “friend” of the Iranian theocracy and that they would be very happy with his policies.  http://www.aim.org/guest-column/obamas-kabuki-dance-with-iran-fueling-mullahs-hegemony-in-middle-east/?utm_source=AIM+-+Daily+Email&utm_campaign=email032615&utm_medium=email

 It’s Official – U.S. Air Force Working With Iranian Army  
(theconservativetreehouse.com) - No details yet, but this essentially destroys the nObama claim the U.S. was not working with Iranian army...FUBAR NUTS – not only is the U.S. facilitating the Iranians to gain the capability for nuclear weapons – but our U.S. Air Force is now conducting air strikes to benefit the Shia Army of Iran and General Qasem Soleimani. Why it was only a few days ago when Petraeus was asked: QUESTION – What are your thoughts when you see Qasem Soleimani, the IRGC’s Quds Force commander who funded and armed the militias who blew up U.S. troops [killing and wounding thousands of U.S. soldiers] and shelled the U.S. Embassy while you were in it, taking battlefield tours like you used to?    http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/03/25/sweet-mother-of-hades-its-official-u-s-air-force-working-with-iranian-army-u-s-conducting-air-strikes-over-tikrit/

Sen. Harry Reid / AP
 dinky Reid More Involved in Visa Controversy  
(Lachlan Markay) - The Senate’s top Democrat was more deeply involved than previously known in an effort to secure U.S. visas for Chinese investors in a Las Vegas casino despite the concerns of career federal officials, according to an inspector general report released on Tuesday...Senate Minority Leader dinky Harry Reid (D., Nev.) and his staff received weekly updates from top officials at U.S. Customs and Immigration Services (USCIS) regarding the status of visas for investors in the SLS Las Vegas Hotel and Casino, the report reveals. Executives at the casino’s parent company, a client of dinky Reid’s son Rory, donated thousands of dollars to dinky Reid’s campaign after he helped speed consideration of its applications for visas for its Chinese. He is not re-running for the Senator, he is retiring, Ya.      http://freebeacon.com/politics/ig-report-reid-more-involved-in-visa-controversy-than-previously-known/

 White House Stands by Astounding Claim  
(Jason Howerton) - White House press secretary Josh Earnest faced some pushback on Wednesday after he claimed that the nObama administration still believes Yemen can serve as a successful model for “counterterrorism.”...ABC reporter Jonathan Karl noted that “complete chaos” has gripped Yemen as the country faces a bloody struggle against radical rebel forces and asked if the White House still views Yemen as a counterterrorism “model.” The reporter seemedsurprised when Earnest said the White House is maintaining its position. Even when nObama fails he claims success.       http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/03/25/abc-reporter-pushes-back-against-wh-press-secretary-over-counterterrorism-claim-thats-astounding/

 Hilly Hit with Racketeering Lawsuit  
(gopthedailydose.com) - A conservative group has filed a racketeering lawsuit in the US District Court for Southern Florida against former Secretary of State Hilly Clinton, which accuses her of failing to produce documents under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)...According to The Hill, the civil suit, filed Wednesday by Freedom Watch, states that Clinton used her private emails to sell access to other officials in return for donations to the Clinton Foundation. It alleges that, during her tenure, Clinton withheld documents requested under FOIA regarding State Department waivers given to businesses or individuals doing business with Iran, possibly undermining U.S.-imposed sanctions.       http://gopthedailydose.com/2015/03/26/hillary-hit-with-racketeering-lawsuit/

Burt_Header_M2.jpg
     (burtprelutsky.com) - When people ask me, as a Jew, to explain why so many Jews are leftists or why so many wealthy Jews, people like George Soros, Steven Spielberg, Barbra Streisand and Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbuck’s, parrot the Left’s hatred of capitalism, all I can do is shake my head and mutter “Imbeciles. Hypocritical imbeciles.”

     The sad fact is that I come from a family ripe with these fruitcakes. I had several rich uncles who never got tired of praising the Soviet Union and bad-mouthing America, although not a single one ever sold his house, packed his bags and moved to the Workers’ Paradise. You would have thought that at the very least, they would have gone back for a visit just to see how much Russia, the country of their birth, had improved under the leadership of Stalin and the Communists. But, no, not even that. They preferred, like those other rich lefties -- the Clintons, the nObamas, Michael Moore, George Clooney, Dianne Feinstein, David Letterman, Nancy Pulosi, Tom Steyer -- who fly on private jets and ride around in limos and gigantic SUVs, to tell the rest of us how to live, what to eat and even how long to spend in the shower.

     ♦ In case you haven’t heard, the aforementioned Howard Schultz is asking the fools who pay three times too much for coffee to strike up a conversation about race with the sales people he insists on calling baristas. As one of my readers has suggested, if he’s so concerned about the plight of poor blacks, he might start by lowering the price for a cup of java.

     ♦ As for blacks, my suggestion is for everyone to follow Jason Riley’s advice and to stop trying to help them so damn much. Before LBJ stuck them back on the plantation a century after they’d left it, blacks were entering the middle class in record numbers, their marriage rate was higher than that among whites, abortions were rare, the crime rate was proportionate to their numbers, two parent families were commonplace and black churches concentrated on instilling Christian values and tolerance, as opposed to promoting racial divide and a sense of victimhood.

     ♦ Recently, I suggested that we might consider swapping three Republican mediocrities like Orrin Hatch, Jeff Flake, John McCain and a player to be named later, for Bob Menendez, the only Democrat in the Senate who has the guts to oppose nObama on Cuba, Iran and Israel. A fellow conservative suggested that I sweeten the deal by tossing in Susan Collins, Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker. Although I agreed in principle, I wrote back to say “The problem is I can’t risk tossing away too many slackers, lest the Democrats, who are even worse, regain the majority in the Senate. Far better, I’d suggest, to have dinky Harry Reid cleaning up after the elephants than running the circus.”

     ♦ nObama, perhaps the pettiest man on the face of the earth, allowed his petulance towards Benjamin Netanyahu to boil over, leading him to threaten to side with Israel’s enemies at the U.N. The question is whether the Jewish Democrats in Congress will finally have the gumption to unlock their lips from nObama’s behind long enough to join people like Marco Rubio in speaking out in defense of the Jewish homeland, the only democracy and the only real ally we have in that part of the world.

     It is revolting that nObama is doing everything in his power to bring about a two state solution by forcing Israel to divide itself into two parts, one part of which would be indefensible against terrorist attacks, with the other part led by Arabs and Muslims dedicated to completing Hitler’s attempt to eradicate Jews from the face of the earth. The fact that so many Americans continue to support this pathetic excuse for a human being leads me to pray for a two state solution, but one that involves America.

     ♦ Although I continue to favor a governor, Scott Walker, for the presidency, Marco Rubio did a lot to win me over with the 16-minute speech he gave on the floor of the Senate in defense of Israel. In 2016, with the presidential campaign likely to focus on foreign affairs, I would love to see Rubio debating with Hilly (“What difference does it make who killed four Americans?”) Clinton. By the end of the mismatch, all that would be left of Hilly would be her broom, her black dress, her pointy hat and a little puddle of water.

     ♦ Those conservative pundits who dismiss the Democrats as having a very limited bench in 2016, consisting as it would seem of Mrs. Clinton, Elizabeth Warren, loose lips Joe Biden and Al Gore, are displaying a dangerous lack of imagination.

     Although he is the vilest resident of the White House America has ever been saddled with, nObama won two terms because he is the first black president. In like fashion, Mrs. Clinton is basing her own candidacy on being the first female president.

     But, the Democrats have barely begun. They have already won with the first Catholic –John F. Kennedy – and the first draft dodger – Bill Clinton. But they have barely scratched the surface. Before they’re done, I’m sure they’ll trot out the first homosexual, the first atheist, the first Jew, the first dwarf, the first two-headed albino and, eventually, the first Cherokee wannabe, Elizabeth (Fauxcahontas) Warren.
