POST-OP POST
Your intrepid reporter underwent successful cataract surgery yesterday. God bless Medicare. The surgeon was referred by my family doctor and is the best in the city. When he schedules these operations he does an average of 16 in a day.As always,the doctor was running behind so it took an extra hour. The patient behind the curtain next to me in pre-op spoke no English and the nurse had to get a translator on the phone to get the necessary questions answered. When she came to check on me I asked how often they had to do that. She said it was a lot. Welcome to America.
Trump floats unexpected choice for VP
Former Sen. Scott Brown, who represented Massachusetts, but now resides in New Hampshire, got the nod this weekend.
While speaking at a Portsmouth, New Hampshire rally Saturday, Trump said that Brown would make a “very good” vice president.
When Trump asked Brown if he would consider another political run, an audience member suggested a Trump-Brown ticket.

Cruz Camp Concerned Sarah Palin May Endorse Trump in Ames
The Donald Trump campaign announced last weekend they will be making a major announcement on Tuesday in Ames, Iowa at Iowa State University… With a special guest–
“I think it [would] be a blow to Sarah Palin, because Sarah Palin has been a champion for the conservative cause, and if she was going to endorse Donald Trump, sadly, she would be endorsing someone who’s held progressive views all their life on the sanctity of life, on marriage, on partial-birth abortion,” Cruz campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said on CNN’s “New Day.”
WOULD SHE RUN AS TRUMP’S V.P. IF ASKED?
IS HE SMART ENOUGH TO REALIZE WHAT A FORCE SHE STILL IS, EVEN AFTER BEING SCREWED OVER BY MCSTAIN?
ABOUT THAT SHAM OF A “PRISONER EXCHANGE”
Obama’s ugly prisoner exchange with Iran
First: It’s a de facto prisoner exchange — of Americans who had done nothing wrong, for Iranians charged with or convicted of real crimes, even if the administration proudly noted that it had refused to spring anyone accused of terrorism
Second: The White House sprang the deal the day it was unlocking $100 billion in Iranian assets as per the nuclear accord.
Obama & Co. insist the nuclear understanding will pave the way to better Iranian behavior, but none of our allies in the region — from the Israelis to the Saudis — buys it.
Instead, they’re figuring out what they have to do to guard their own security now that America no longer has their backs.

FROM 2013:
Reports: American who went missing in Iran worked for CIA
Both the State Department and Bob Levinson’s family have long denied he was working for the U.S. government when he disappeared on a trip to Iran in 2007.
But Thursday’s reports from the Washington Post and the AP claim that Levinson had been on a CIA mission to dig up information.
‘Extremely Betrayed’: Family of Ex-FBI Agent Believed Held By Iran Lashes Out at White House
“We had to learn it from the TV ourselves, and that’s very disappointing and heartbreaking,” Robert Levinson’s wife, Christine, told the Associated Press. She used stronger language in another interview, telling ABC News that she felt “extremely betrayed” by the White House.

GOP ELITE SHOW THEIR TRUE COLOR
Republican Party Uses State of the Union Response to Attack Donald Trump
The opposition response to the president’s State of the Union is ordinarily meant to rebut what the president says. Not this time. They chose instead to attack the current front-runner for the nomination of their party because of his apparent dislike of the illegal vermin invading our borders to crush our economy by lapping up benefits that should go to Americans.
Meet Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina.The daughter of Sikhs and a rising star amongst the GOP elite.
Rising star Nikki Haley says she is open to becoming GOP running mate
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley says she would consider being the vice presidential candidate for the Republican Party this year.
The rising political star revealed that she is open to the possibility in an appearance on NBC News’ “Today” show Wednesday, a day after delivering the GOP response to President Obama’s final State of the Union address.
Republican presidential candidate and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush praised Haley’s speech as providing a clear vision for a better tomorrow.
“Proud of my friend @nikkihaley for delivering a positive & uplifting response to Pres. Obama’s #SOTU. Clear vision for a brighter future,” he tweeted.

THE MEDIA LOVED IT
Haley’s plea for tolerance draws cheers and jeers, revealing GOP divide
The celebration by Republican elites was instant, and so was the backlash on the far right.
South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, the youthful daughter of Indian immigrants, had delivered a sunny and inclusive Republican response to President Obama’s State of the Union address that stood as an unmistakable counter to her party’s two presidential front-runners.

RUSH HAD A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT TAKE THAN THE MEDIA WHORES
What the Nikki Haley Speech Means
A little bit questionable, but on balance I haven’t had a whole lot of problems with her. But, boy, last night her response? I think it’s proof and it’s an example of so much. For one thing, it’s almost absolute proof of what I have been saying for last couple years now, that the Republican Party’s trying to drive conservatives out of the party. But I think it’s more than that. It’s certainly that, but her speech last night sort of expanded the theme of who is and who isn’t qualified to be a Republican, and the Republican Party is still anti-conservative
FRANK LUNTZ IS A WALKING BALL OF PHLEGM. THIS IS HIS STUPID FOCUS GROUP AFTER THE SOTU.
IT’S FOUR MINUTES, BUT THE MONEY SHOT IS AT THE 1:57 MARK WHEN NEARLY EVERYBODY IN HIS HAND-PICKED PACK OF STOOGES BLAMES THE REPUBLICANS FOR NOT KISSING OBAMA’S ASS AND ACCEPTING ALL THE BLAME.
PLEASE BE PATIENT…THIS BREVITY THING IS NEW TO ME

EPIC FAIL: Barack Obama is a terrible president
In the first two videos below, note Obama’s flat, almost bored, affect when he talks about the Paris terror attacks and about his military strategy for ISIS. Compare this to his heightened, energized affect in the places where he talks about his political opponents at home. I think it says a lot about his humanity … or lack thereof.
In the third video, the FOX News panel reports on Obama’s lack of passion, clarity and honesty. Jesse Watters says, “I’m actually surprised. Obama usually golfs and flies to fundraisers after terrorist attacks. This time I think he released five guys from Gitmo and then showed up late for a moment of silence for the victims.”
In the fourth video, President Obama addresses the concerns of those who note that terrorists are undeniably infiltrating other nations by posing as refugees. But rather than honestly speak to these concerns, he ridicules them.
He has a bad habit of attacking straw men (e.g., Republicans are afraid of 3-year olds), rather than honestly and respectfully dealing with facts and people he dislikes. It’s offensive.
- He never uses the “M” word when talking about extremist Muslims, lest some peaceful Muslims be tarred by association.
- Yet when it comes to Republicans, Pro-Lifers, Tea Partiers, etc., he is blatantly dishonest about what we believe and why we disagree with him.
In the fifth video, Ted Cruz calls him out on it.

Ted Cruz: Five for Freedom Plan
“The total federal debt currently stands at $18.6 trillion, larger than our entire economy. That is up 75 percent since President Obama took office, and by the end of his tenure, he is expected to have added almost as much to the national debt as all past presidents combined. The federal government spent $3.5 trillion in fiscal year 2014, and ran a deficit of $483 billion. Sadly, even under a Republican Congress, the recent budget deal will add another $80 billion in spending over two years. The current and projected rates of government growth are unsustainable, irresponsible, and constitutionally indefensible.” ~Ted Cruz
Ted Cruz says that, if he is elected, he will work to eliminate wasteful government agencies, bureaus and commission. In particular, he wants to get rid of these five cabinet agencies:
- Internal Revenue Service – to dramatically simplify the tax code and enable everyone to fill out their taxes on a postcard or smartphone app.
- Department of Education – to return education to those who know our students best: parents, teachers, local communities, and states. And to block-grant education funding to the states.
- Department of Energy – to cut off the Washington cartel, stop picking winners and losers, and unleash the energy renaissance.
- Department of Commerce – to close the “congressional cookie jar” and promote free enterprise and free trade for every business.
- Department of Housing and Urban Development – to offer real solutions that lift people out of hardship, rather than trapping families in a cycle of poverty, and to empower hurting Americans by reforming most of the remaining programs, such as Section 8 housing.
Cruz says he will NOT do this by executive action, like Obama’s been doing to force his will on us. He will do it legally, constitutionally, by working with Congress.

GOP DEBATE: Cruz on illegal immigration
Cruz is exactly right.
VIDEO @ http://therightscoop.com/ted-cruz-kills-it-on-illegal-immigration-video/
Saying Republicans are anti-immigration is offensive. We’re pro-law abiding immigrants! Besides which, Mexico and most other countries have zero tolerance for illegals. Why should we be any different?
Saying Republicans lack compassion is also offensive. IMO, Democrats are the hard-hearted ones for so blithely ignoring the suffering of the millions of Americans that their horrible economic policies have put out of work.

PLUMBING THE JOURNALISTIC SEWER
You’ve probably heard about it by now. You may have even seen parts of it. Last night’s debate was as pathetic a display of moderator arrogance and outright venality as has ever been my fortune to witness. I don’t even think they had everything planned, it’s just when they started they couldn’t help themselves. I may do a separate post with the entire debacle broken down into pieces. For now I’ll just post short bites, some of which you have no doubt already heard.
TED CRUZ GOT THINGS STARTED. IT WAS ALSO THE HIGHEST RESPONSE FRANK DUNTZ HAS EVER GOTTEN FROM ONE OF HIS INFAMOUS FOCUS GROUPS.
Ted Cruz Slams the Media During GOP Debate
“The questions that have been asked so far in this debate illustrate why the American people don’t trust the media,” said the U.S. senator from Texas.

Under Barack Obama the Middle Class in America has been under constant assault.
The Obama record– More pain, More poverty, More suffering.
** More Children Live in Poverty Today Than During 2008 Recession
** Obamanomics in Action: Worst Labor Force Participation Rate Since 1977
** Obamanomics in Action… More Young Adults Live at Home Than in 2009
** Obamanomics in Action… More Young Adults Live at Home Than in 2009
** Obamanomics in Action: One in Five US Families Not Working
** Obamanomics in Action: Real Hourly Income Down 10% Under Obama
** Obamanomics in Action: 11.4 Million Americans Have Left Workforce Since Obama Took Office
** OBAMANOMICS IN ACTION: Typical US Household Worth One-Third Less Than Under Bush
** Obamanomics in Action… One-Fifth of Middle Class Falls into Poverty
** 1 in 2 working Americans make less than $30,000 a year.

GOP Debate: Tilt and Tone
Vanity Fair said, “Americans and pundits will spend the next few days weighing who won Wednesday night’s Republican debate on CNBC. But the night’s loser was clear even before it started: the network itself, which started the main event late and asked questions that left even the candidates scratching their heads.”
Ted Cruz said, “The questions that have been asked so far in the debate illustrate why the American people don’t trust the media. … You look at the questions: ‘Donald Trump, are you a comic book villain?’ ‘Ben Carson, can you do math?’ ‘John Kasich, will you insult two people over here?’ ‘Marco Rubio, why don’t you resign?’ ‘Jeb Bush, why have your numbers fallen?’ How about talking about the substantive issues people care about?”
Piers Morgan, who hates all things Republican, tweeted, “Come on CNBC moderators, get your damn facts right. This is embarrassing.”
It makes me glad I didn’t watch.
