Rumor has it the Dumbocrat Party had its fourth and final debate Sunday night. While the NFL playoffs were on. I watched the Hated Green Bay Packers go down to defeat, as did Hillary, according to the opinion polla post debate. I cherry picked a few interesting things, so as not to clog the header too much.
From the leftist hacks at The Hill: No punches pulled at debate
Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders traded vigorous verbal blows in the last Democratic debate before the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary on Sunday evening, both showing a clear understanding that the stakes could hardly be higher.
The two front-runners traded wonky digs at each other’s platforms as well as more personal attacks in a debate reflective of the heightened rhetoric that has been heard on the trail during the past week.

Even Code Pink mocked Wasserman Schultz over Sunday night’s debate
After giving her a pass for dodging the question about whether she’d be adding any more debates to the schedule, Stelter asked Wasserman Schultz if she was interested in ratings.
“Sunday night is a terrible time to have a debate, because there are so many great shows on,” the CNN host said. “Don’t you think that is going to hurt your ratings? And isn’t it in your interests to have high ratings for these debates?”
Wasserman Schultz responded by saying they’ve had “record viewership” for their debates, but went all the way back to 2008 in naming some of their successes.
AP FACT CHECK: Democratic debaters and the facts
FACT-CHECKING THE DEMOCRATS IS AS USELESS AN EXERCISE AS FIGHTING THE DREADED GLOBAL WARMING
A look at some of their claims and how they compare with the facts:
CLINTON on Sanders’ proposal for a taxpayer-paid health care system: “I don’t want to see us start over again with a contentious debate.”
SANDERS: “We’re not going to tear up the Affordable Care Act,” but build on it.
The movie is a study in the difference between thinkers and doers.
A lady spy with a French accent who works in Benghazi tells one of the security contractors (ex-military men), “I know what I’m doing” because it’s her second tour in a war zone. A contractor replies laconically, “It’s my 12th.”
Nerds may be adequate leaders when everything is going smoothly. But when there are jihadis gathering with rocket launchers outside the gate, send for a jock.
Lars Larson writes on Facebook:
It’s impressive that a movie released in January even includes a direct quoted reference to the Pentagon email by Chief of Staff Jeremy Bash, only released last month, that there were military assets “spinning up” and ready to go… but BHO and SOS Clinton never gave the go ahead.
The movie makes you proud to be an American and it makes me more determined to never let power like that ever rest again in the hands of such feckless losers. It’s well worth seeing and if you care about your country, take as many Democrat Party voters with you as you can.
On September 11, 2012, Islamic militants attacked the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya. Four Americans died.
VIDEO LIE = On September 14, 2012, then-White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said, “We have no information to suggest that it was a preplanned attack. The unrest we’ve seen around the region has been in reaction to a video that Muslims, many Muslims find offensive.”
VIDEO LIE = On September 15, 2012, the Benghazi families report that President Obama, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and other Obama officials told them, to their faces, as they stood next to their sons’ caskets, that the attack had been due to a protest over an anti-Muslim YouTube video.
VIDEO LIE = On September 16, 2012, then-U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice appeared on five major interview shows to discuss the attacks. She blamed the video.
VIDEO LIE = On September 18, 2012, then-Press Secretary Jay Carney said, “We saw no evidence to back up claims by others that this was a pre-planned or premeditated attack. … We saw evidence that it was sparked by the reaction to this video. And that is what we know thus far based on the evidence, concrete evidence.”
VIDEO LIE = On September 20, 2012, President Obama said, “What we do know is that the natural protests that arose because of the outrage over the video were used as an excuse by extremists to see if they can also directly harm U.S. interests.”
VIDEO LIE = On September 25, 2012, President Obama spoke before the United Nations General Assembly and again condemned the video.
Testimony before Congress and emails obtained through FOIA show that President Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton absolutely knew … from the get-go … that Benghazi was a pre-planned terror attack and that they actively pimped the video lie to save Obama’s re-election campaign.
Now, to add insult to injury, Hillary Clinton is denying that she ever told the video lie to the Benghazi families.

In response, Tyrone Woods’ dadshowed the diary entry he wrote that day, an account that has been affirmed by three other relatives who were present at the meeting.
Sean Smith’s mother says it’s Hillary who is lying and that it wasn’t just Clinton, but also President Obama, Vice President Biden, Ambassador Rice, and then-Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta who told her the attack had been sparked by an anti-Muslim video.
“I went up to all of them, begging them to tell me what happened, and they all said that it was the video — every one of them.”
January 13, 2016: Family Members of Benghazi Victims React to ’13 Hours’ Film – The Kelly File
HILLARY CLINTON: “Too Busy” Campaigning to Watch American Heroes’ Story “13 Hours”
SHE KNOWS HOW IT ENDS
I DESPISE THIS WRETCHED BEAST WITH ALL MY BATTERY-OPERATED HEART AND MY GRACE-REDEEMED SOUL
The blockbuster film “13 Hours” on the Benghazi massacre by director Michael Bay is now playing in theaters nationwide.
On Sunday Hillary Clinton was asked about the movie.
She told Jake Tapper she was “too busy” campaigning to watch “13 hours.”
13 Hours, as most of you know, is the true story of a handful of individuals who showed uncommon bravery in the face of a colossal security clusterflock*, at a US diplomatic outpost, after the fall of Qaddafi in Libya. The movie doesn’t go into the politics, most of which consisted in the (almost?) criminal refusal on behalf of the State Department to provide adequate security to, as the opening credits note, one of the twelve most dangerous spots on the planet.
If you listen closely, you can hear the faint voice of Barack Obama blathering about the wonderful opportunities for the Libyan people now that Qaddafi had been overthrown. Mercifully, I did not see any pictures of Hillary or hear the dreaded cackle, which, now that I think of it, might have sent their attackers fleeing in fear at the sound of it.
The story starts with the arrival of Jack Silva, played by The Office’s John Krasinski**. A tense and potentially deadly situation arises on the streets of Benghazi before they can even reach the compound. Welcome to Benghazi! Jack is not an FNG***, as he has worked with some of the team in years past.
The CIA station chief “Bob”, is portrayed as a snot nosed, condescending, officious prick who treats his security detail, mostly former Navy SEALS, as rent-a-cops. Not surprisingly, the former CIA station chief for Benghazi has said this is all ‘baloney’, but then, if even a fraction of it were true, I would vehemently deny it, too. Whose word are you going to trust? His, or the three men who risked their lives to save his bacon? Me, too.
The movie shows the very human side of these operators: interactions with their wives and kids, albeit long distance, the boredom, the bureaucracy, and when the balloon goes up, their professionalism and willingness to die for their friends and even some complete strangers, because that’s what they signed up for.
The movie is well paced and suspenseful, and at times, like “24”, gives the sense of taking place in real time. The suspense is heightened in that the bad guys do not wear any uniform or insignia and therefore look like anyone else. These men know all too well the consequences of shooting a “friendly”, therefore you literally cannot tell friend from foe until they start shooting at you.
The battle scenes are intense and the down time in between them are very revealing of these men’s character.The requests for help that go unanswered, surprising in the face of the number of people actually ready to respond, may cause one to pause.
I highly recommend this movie. The movie is accurate, according to (most of) those who were there. Director Michael Bay does the script, the story, and the heroes behind them justice. One caveat, you may not be able to leave the theater with a dry eye. Two ladies who saw the movie before I did, Tweeted: There was only one word when we left the theater: Speechless.
Five out of five stars.
*Hey! We are still PG-13 here! But if that kind of language offends you, wait until 13 Hours comes out on network TV, and read the book while you wait. The language is not excessive, but realistic.
**Don’t let that concern you. I was never a fan of The Office, but his acting is first rate here. He gives a very credible performance, showing wide range.
***F’ing New Guy, for the uninitiated.
Update by Grunt: Sean Smith’s mother could not review this movie because she was too emotional about it. To see her comments about Hillary Clinton after attempting to sit through the movie, watch this video: (Hat tip: Common Cents.)
So the democrats had a debate Saturday night. The extravaganza drew an audience of 8 million, about the same as a rerun of South Park. It was painfully obvious to any objective observer that this was a monumental waste of broadcast time in an effort to hide the fact that their nominee is an arrogant slut whose pomposity and hubris were on full display. There was little of note during this little get-together except another Clinton lie about Trump being a recruiter for ISIS. Her campaign first defended the statement, then later admitted it was just another lie. At that point,what difference did it make?
I’m not at all comfortable with Trump as the Republican nominee, but at this point if Cankles is destined to succeed to the throne at least the months-long food fight between those two would be worth it. A last hurrah for the nation, as it were.

YOU EXPECTED DIFFERENT?
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton twice dodged moderator Martha Raddatz’s simple question on Libya at Saturday night’s Democratic debate in Manchester, New Hampshire: “How much responsibility do you bear for the chaos that followed elections?”
Well, first, let’s remember why we became part of a coalition to stop Gadhafi from committing massacres against his people. The United States was asked to support the Europeans and the Arab partners that we had. And we did a lot of due diligence about whether we should or not. And eventually, yes, I recommended and the President decided that we would support the action to protect civilians on the ground and that led to the overthrow of Gadhafi.

LADY TAKES A POTTY BREAK
Hillary Clinton Missed Debate Because She Wouldn’t Share A Bathroom
Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton was late getting back to the debate stage Saturday night because she didn’t want to share a restroom with a Martin O’Malley staffer.
Clinton reportedly went to the ladies’ room during the commercial break, according to The Boston Globe. Clinton even had a campaign employee on bathroom duty to make sure Clinton could quickly get inside the restroom and return to the stage. But when that staffer let in O’Malley spokeswoman Lis Smith, Clinton waited outside.
And the Clinton camp is reeling from a Breitbart News report that the DNC is really not so fair and impartial in this primary. How could it be? After all, the Clinton campaign is funding the DNC and its state-level get-out-the-vote efforts!
I DON’T KNOW IF THIS IS CURMUDGEON’S HANDIWORK OR GRUNT’S
IT’S HILARIOUS
I contacted our cub reporter Scoop and asked if he could do a little snooping. Here’s the exclusive report he filed just a few minutes ago.
CHAPPAQUA, NY—According to sources close to the Clinton campaign, Hillary has taken to spending more and more time in the can. Aides are concerned that she may meet the same fate as Elvis who was rumored to have died on the toilet due to “overexertion in the privy.”
The source, who asked to remain anonymous, said that she clenches her fists, grabs hold of the toilet seat and really bears down. She has been seen with beads of sweat dotting her aged forehead after emerging from the bathroom.
The unnamed source allowed our reporter to hide in the corner of the guest house living room where the former Secretary of State was doing a photo shoot for a rather famous company that produces a toilet spray designed to trap unpleasant bathroom odors. http://www.politicalclownparade.blogspot.com/2015/12/oh-poo.html
DIANNY COULDN’T RESIST
The Most Tardy Woman in the World
Posted on December 20, 2015 by Dianny
Apparently Hillary Clinton was about as interested in the Democrat Debate as I was.
During the commercial break that happened at 9:30 pm, Hillary was a wee bit tardy in getting back when the debate started up again nearly six minutes later.
“Sorry” says the most tardy woman in the world.
Now, at the previous debate, Hillary made a joke that, as a woman she needed more time in the restroom. I’m a woman. I can be in and out of a bathroom in under a minute. And that includes washing my hands. The only time it has taken me longer is if I have to wait in line. And something tells me that the bathrooms provided for the candidates aren’t being flooded by people, but rather, are private facilities in green rooms. So unless she ate nothing but bean burritos and Ex-Lax the entire day, why the hell would she need more than five minutes?
I have my theories.
Hillary: Trump’s a Bigot; Guns Help Terrorists, Not You
Hillary Clinton on Saturday laid out what could be themes for her upcoming general election campaign, saying Donald Trump is a bigot and guns help terrorists, not average Americans.
“He is becoming ISIS’s best recruiter. They are going to people showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists. So I want to explain why this is not in America’s interest to react with this kind of fear and respond to this sort of bigotry.”
Like President Obama before her, Clinton linked gun violence to terrorism, with the implicit suggestion that limiting Second Amendment rights could help combat ISIS attacks in America.
ABC Lets Stephanopoulos Host Pre, Post-Debate; Teams with Brazile to Tout ‘Battle-Tested’ Hillary
HEY, SHE WAS HIS BOSS
Showing that they’ve learned next to nothing from the George Stephanopoulos/Clinton Foundation scandal, ABC allowed its chief anchor in Stephanopoulos to anchor its pre-game coverage of Saturday’s Democratic presidential debate.
Not surprisingly, the former Clinton White House official teamed with DNC Vice Chairwoman Donna Brazile to gush over how Hillary Clinton has “found her footing during the fall” and has been “battle tested” following e-mail server and Clinton Foundation scandals that rocked her candidacy earlier in the year.
ABC’s Raddatz Throws Softball to Hillary on First Spouses; ‘Is It Time to Change the Role?’
In the final set of questions of Saturday’s Democratic presidential debate prior to the closing statements, ABC’s co-moderator Martha Raddatz served up a massive softball to frontrunner Hillary Clinton concerning how former President Bill Clinton would function as a member of the First Family if Hillary is elected president.
Promising “to make a very sharp turn as we wrap things up here,” Raddatz began by explaining to Clinton: “First Ladies, as you well know, have used their position to work on important causes like literacy and drug abuse, but they also supervise the menus, the flowers, the holiday ornaments and White House decor.”

THE FACT THAT HE ENJOYED THE LABORS OF A REAGAN AND BUSH ECONOMY, THE DOT COM BUBBLE, AND A REPUBLICAN HOUSE LED BY NEWT GINGRICH TO CONTROL SPENDING, IS IRRELEVANT.
Former President Bill Clinton joined his wife Hillary in a surprise appearance after the third Democratic debate at a watch party, in Manchester, New Hampshire, Saturday night.
Clinton stood side by side with her husband, saying the former president will be out on the campaign trail in January.
“I think this is fair to say that starting in January, I will have my not so secret weapon,” she said. “We’re going to cover as much ground as we possibly can.”
It was the first time the former president made a public appearance immediately following one of the debates.
President Clinton also took to the mic to address the crowd at the local tavern.

“Make no mistake. ISIS would not exist if not for Obama’s policies. This is not partisanship, it is simply the truth. Obama armed and funded the ‘rebel forces’ in Syria. Many of those rebel forces soon became what we now know as ISIS. Obama should be made to answer for that.”– Matt Walsh
Nov. 16, 2015: Lt. Col. Ralph Peters (Ret) “I’m really worried” [4:31] – The only president on the American continent who ever did more damage than Obama to the United States was Jefferson Davis.
Most of the European continent has finally, if belatedly, been shaken to its core from the folly of welcoming ravening Muslim animals to live amongst them. The Jewish population in France is only 1%, but they are victims of 54% of violent crime. Perhaps the surrender monkeys felt as long as it was just Jews that were suffering it didn’t matter. Last Friday they found out differently. Though not widely reported, Sweden has become the rape capital of the world, and 100% OF THE RAPES ARE BEING COMMITTED BY MUSLIM IMMIGRANTS.
Back home, more than 27 governors, including at least one democrat, have said they will not accept any of these wretched vermin. Obama, for his part, will not acknowledge his friends did anything wrong and will continue to try to bring as many scum as he can before he has to leave office.
In case you hadn’t heard, they slipped something they referred to as a democrat debate Saturday night while no one was looking. It was so devoid of any substance they should probably cancel any future shows because there’s no real point. This was held the day after the Paris attacks. The greasy hag refused to answer any questions and Bernie blamed it on climate change.

Obama On His ISIS Strategy: I’m Not Interested In ‘American Leadership, Or America Winning’
Throughout Monday’s press conference, Obama insisted that his strategy for defeating ISIS was working and did not need to change. On Friday, just hours before the deadly Paris attacks, the president insisted in a television interview with ABC News that his administration had “contained” ISIS.
“What I’m not interested in doing is posing or pursuing some notion of American leadership or America winning or whatever other slogans they come up with that has no relationship to what is actually going to work to protect the American people and to protect the people in the region who are getting killed and to protect our allies and people like France,” Obama said. “I’m too busy for that.”

By now everybody on the planet knows about the massacre in Paris. Europe is paying a price for their open-door policy toward these murderous mutants. French President Hollande declared the attacks an “act of war” and said that France will fight back. Nice words but I doubt they have the resolve to do what needs to be done. Theses people infest the continent, refuse to assimilate, ignore the law, and make outrageous demands including televisions, food, and housing. And they demand it for free.
The biggest gasbag on the planet was scheduled to hold a ‘global warming’ conference which has been interrupted, but will go forward.
The complete disgrace we are forced to refer to as president first claimed he would not accuse any group of responsibility until all the facts were in even though these spawn of Satan were screaming ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they gunned down innocent people.
The entire civilized world (those who do not revel in the slaughter of non-Muslims) have come together to mourn the loss. One would be very hard pressed to convince me that Obama feels the slightest twinge of sorrow for those who lost their lives. His loyalties, it seems, lie elsewhere.
These attacks were carefully planned, and came the day after the coward-in-chief claimed ISIS was contained. The Bataclan Music Hall was the site of most of the bloodshed as the murderers fired indiscriminatly at unarmed people.

Last week, the city of New Orleans began receiving its first wave of Syrian refugees.

It is irresponsible and severely disconcerting to place individuals, who may have ties to ISIS, in a state without the state’s knowledge or involvement.
