Democrats Are Wearing Blinders
Denying the radical Islamic nature of the terrorism perpetrated by al-Qaida and the Islamic State is at the heart of Barack nObama's foreign policy. But make no mistake: nObama's blinding Islamophilia is costing the U.S. big time. Terrorism is "random," he says, and the Islamic State isn't Islamic. Twenty-one Christians beheaded by ISIL were merely "Egyptian citizens" -- as if religion had nothing to do with it -- but three Muslims killed by a leftist atheist in North Carolina were clearly targeted because of their faith. "No one in the United States of America should ever be targeted because of who they are, what they look like, or how they worship," nObama said, despite early evidence that such targeting wasn't the case anyway. The White House began a three-day summit Tuesday focused on combating "violent extremism." One official explained the stance on ISIL: "We are not treating these people as part of a religion. We're treating them as terrorists." But addressing that summit, Joe Loose Lips Biden warned of right-wing extremists committing violence in the name of the Bible. -The Patriot Post 
JEB BUSH, NEOCONSERVATIVE
In a speech today outlining his foreign policy, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush offers a similar refrain: “I love my father and my brother… But I am my own man – and my views are shaped by my own thinking and own experiences.” At a reporter scrum after speech in Florida last week, Jeb was adamant: “I won’t talk about the past. I’ll talk about the future,” adding that “it’s not about re-litigating anything.” Curious then that the foreign policy team that Jeb announced today is not just very much George W. Bush’s, but includes two of the most controversial figures from invasion of Iraq, former Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz and former National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley. Short of including Dick Cheney, this is the strongest possible indication that Bush is embracing his brother’s foreign policy. What’s up with that?
[Feels like old times - Other core players from the George W. Bush administration on the team include former Homeland Security secretaries Tom Ridge and Michael Chertoff, former intelligence bosses Porter Goss, John Negroponte and Michael Hayden.] -Fox News

Not the man they thought - Robin Williams had a bit in one of his last stand-up performances in which a man who had been in a coma for the previous decade was getting filled in on what he missed. Told that George H.W. Bush’s son had been president, the newly awoken character says “The one from Florida? He seemed kind of cool.” Informed that it was the one from Texas instead, the man incredulously demands “Junior?” The crowd roared their approval. Dumb Dubya and Smart Jeb, haw, haw haw. And in the tonier precincts of American politics and media it has long been fashionable to lament that “the wrong Bush” got elected in 2000 because Jeb would have never invaded Iraq. Jeb’s embrace of the core of his brother’s team will pour some considerable cold water on that view. Watch for a turning in the mainstream press’ treatment of Jeb hereafter. And were Jeb to be the nominee, it sets up a fight with Hilly Clinton over which interventionist foreign policy is less popular, George W. Bush’s or Barack nObama’s. -Fox News
Doctrine air - But votes are what count. So what we can expect when the inevitable re-litigation comes? Jeb will likely embrace some version of the argument that we have been hearing from Bush loyalists: The Iraq war was right, but that mistakes in execution were made. Once forward progress was regained following the troop surge, Iraq might have eventually become a stable, secular partner in peace. Those hopes, though, were snuffed out by a hasty retreat by President nObama. While the Republican base has warmed to George W. Bush considerably of late, are its members really ready to go back to a Bush Doctrine approach to fighting Islamists? There is huge support for more aggressive prosecution of the current phase of the war, but nation building and a “forward strategy of freedom” that calls for long and costly U.S. commitments in the region would still seem to be a non-starter.

WITH YOUR SECOND CUP OF COFFEE...
“The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” debuted on this day in 1885. Mark Twain previously introduced the characters nine years earlier in “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.” Twain saw Huck Finn as a sequel to Tom Sawyer, but the newer book proved to have a far more serious focus on slavery and life in the South and therefore was significantly more controversial among readers. The protagonists, Huck and Jim, delve into life and societal norms of dealing with slavery and attitudes of the time. Just two decades after the Emancipation Proclamation and the end of the Civil War, the portrayal of a black man as strong and brave while the portrayal of a white man as violent and selfish provoked strong reactions. Just a month after publication, the Concord, Massachusetts library banned the book calling it “tawdry” and “ignorant.” Over the course of time, the provocative nature led to it being banned by numerous libraries. But as Huck said: “It was awful thoughts and awful words, but they was said. And I let them stay said; and never thought no more about reforming. I shoved the whole thing out of my head, and said I would take up wickedness again, which was in my line, being brung up to it, and the other warn’t. And for a starter I would go to work and steal Jim out of slavery again; and if I could think up anything worse, I would do that, too; because as long as I was in, and in for good, I might as well go the whole hog.” -Fox News

nObama loses in court, again
(Washington Examiner) - President nObama might have been surprised on Monday night when a federal district court in Texas blocked his executive action on immigration. Those familiar with his administration's legal acumen should not be...nObama's team has suffered numerous major court defeats in cases it treated publicly as obvious slam-dunk victories. A dozen of nObama's defeats before the Supreme Court have been unanimous — on topics as diverse as religious liberty, property rights and presidential appointment powers. Each time that happens, it signifies that no knowledgeable person could have reasonably embraced nObama's legal position. The problem with nObama's action is that it would effectively confer legal status and issue work permits to millions of people — something that should only and probably can only be done with the consent of the legislative branch. Such an effort may well deserve the support of Congress, but it surely requires it as well. There exists a constitutional channel for major policy changes. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/obama-loses-in-court-again/article/2560338?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI%20-%2002/18/15&utm_medium=email

Ending 'dangerous' judge-less warrants
(Mark J. Fitzgibbons) - The growth in number and size of government agencies, beginning about 80 years ago, has been accompanied by the expanded use of “administrative subpoenas.” These are warrants, not signed by a judge, by which government obtains records and other evidence...More and more Americans have come to understand that these administrative subpoenas violate the Fourth Amendment’s processes needed to guard against unreasonable searches and seizures of our persons, houses, papers and effects. Judge-less subpoenas are now especially prevalent in targeting telephone and computer records, but they have been used in many ways that transgress the law. The problem was adequately summed up in the title of a 2012 article at Wired.com, “We Don’t Need No Stinking Warrant: The Disturbing, Unchecked Rise of the Administrative Subpoena.” The article noted that “roughly 335 federal statutes on the books” authorize these judge-less warrants. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/ending-dangerous-judge-less-warrants/article/2560337?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI%20-%2002/18/15&utm_medium=email

Libya's chaos is nObama's shame
(Timothy P. Carney) - President nObama attacked Libya in 2011 without congressional authority, and then shirked any responsibility to help stabilize the country after deposing its dictator...By 2013, Libya had become a chaotic hellhole mired in a permanent war. Today it is a new beachhead and recruiting ground for the Islamic State. nObama’s illegal, ill-considered, and immoral drive-by war in Libya ought to be a permanent stain on his presidency. The recent video of masked ISIS killers beheading 21 Egyptian Christians in Libya deserves to be the emblem of this president’s rash foreign policy. http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/libyas-chaos-is-obamas-shame/article/2560325?utm_campaign=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI&utm_source=Washington%20Examiner:%20Opinion%20Digest%20PMI%20-%2002/18/15&utm_medium=email

Emails reveal sensitive info left exposed after US pullout from Yemen
(Catherine Herridge) - Internal State Department emails reviewed by Fox News reveal that as security unraveled in Yemen, U.S. personnel were scrambling to finalize their exit plan and were so uncertain about what would happen...that procedures for safeguarding sensitive information were bypassed -- with permission from Washington. The unclassified emails reveal staff on the ground in Yemen, as well as senior department executives in Washington, were concerned the evacuation might go bad and left a communication network running at the embassy in case staff had to return. The emails point to uncertainty on the ground amid fast-moving developments, even as the nObama administration downplayed any irregularities. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/02/18/emails-show-sensitive-info-left-exposed-after-us-pullout-from-yemen/?cmpid=NL_fntop

Trey Gowdy Reacts To Judge’s Anti-Amnesty Ruling
(B. Christopher Agee) - As Western Journalism reported Tuesday, a Texas federal judge issued a temporary block on certain aspects of Barack nObama’s executive action regarding illegal immigration...With millions of illegals set to enjoy de facto amnesty beginning this week, Judge Andrew Hanen’s ruling came just days before the controversial order went into effect. Hanen determined that a porous border and lax security “has exacerbated illegal immigration into this country,” a phenomenon that increasingly taxes resources among the states forced to receive these uninvited residents. The judge responded to protests by more than half of all U.S. states in ruling that nObama’s order should face further review before being implemented. http://www.westernjournalism.com/trey-gowdy-reacts-judges-anti-amnesty-ruling/?utm_source=MailChimp&utm_medium=email&utm_content=featured-stories&utm_campaign=DailyEmail02.18.15#OHobOdl6dRMlYkTb.97

When Muslims Tried To Invoke Sharia Law
(americanoverlook.com) - When foreigners try to enforce the laws of their homeland on American soil, it never really ends well.So when a mosque in Texas created a so-called “Shariah court”, the mayor was instantly pushing back – and rightfully so...The mosque is located in Irving, Texas of all places, and the city has released a statement that challenges the “Shariah court” and puts it’s future into question. Mayor Beth Van Duyne came out publicly against the court on Facebook, saying, “Shariah Law Court was NOT approved or enacted by the City of Irving. Recently, there have been rumors suggesting that the City of Irving has somehow condoned, approved or enacted the implementation of a Shariah Law Court in our City.” http://americanoverlook.com/when-muslims-tried-to-invoke-sharia-law-a-no-nonsense-texas-mayor-does-this/36508?ref=email

Gov. Abbott: We Will Win Immigration Fight With Obama WH
(politibrew.com) - Governor of Texas Greg Abbott is confident the multi-state lawsuit against nObama's illegal and unconstitutional executive amnesty...accompanied with actual awards and benefits to these millions of law-breakers, will ultimately fail, all the way to the Supreme Court. As you recall, first nObama said he couldn't do it (22 times), then did it, then awarded them rights and benefits, followed by boasting that he "changed the law".Sorry, estúpido, it doesn't work that way. Comprende? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUwnQZyBKyk

Rep Luis Gutierrez – The Illegal Latino People – Warns Of Retaliation
(Rick Wells) - Luis Gutierrez is the Latino version of Al Sharpton. He’s a racist tool of the Marxist nObama regime being used to destabilize America and to usher in their new and improved replacement population...He is a militant activist working aggressively to bring about our fundamental transformation away from a representative government into authoritarian tyranny. He exposed his revolutionary side in a brief interview on MSNBC with fellow Latino activist, Jose Diaz-Balart. He demonizes the patriotic Americans for not rolling over and accepting our dictated fate, the erasure of our national borders and with them our sovereignty. It is abundantly clear from his comments that our fight to defend our nation is far from over. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqZa3W8gPis

Why Is DHS Sec Jeh Johnson Still Politicking For Funding Bill
(Rick Wells) - Director of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson seems to be laying the foundation for future claims that he couldn’t do his job, that he had to marginalize our defenses because of funding shortcomings...While his predecessors were able to enforce our immigration laws with less money, Johnson isn’t getting it done and has opted instead simply to not enforce the law. Rather than facing impeachment or charges, Johnson is asking for more money and holding what little he is allowing to be done as a potential hostage through political manipulation. http://www.rickwells.us/why-is-dhs-sec-jeh-johnson-still-politicking-for-funding-bill-after-dems-amnesty-obstruction-was-removed/

States Pursue Laws To Nullify Federal Gun Control
(rebelmississippi.blogspot.com) - Legislators in Montana and Arizona recently advanced laws that will pre-emptively nullify any future gun bans that are passed at the federal level...The Montana bill passed the state’s house of representatives last week and is now under consideration in the Senate. It will prohibit local police from enforcing any federal weapon or magazine ban. A similar bill in Arizona, recently approved by a Senate committee, also outlaws the enforcement of federal gun laws. It also takes things a step further by stripping funding for future federal investigations on gun-related issues. http://rebelmississippi.blogspot.com/2015/02/states-pursue-laws-to-nullify-federal.html
Hilly’s “Rebels” Behead
21 Coptic Christians In Libya
The Last Refuge
(theconservativetreehouse.com) - The people and groups now identified as “ISIS in Libya” are the same people and groups that Hilly Clinton, Samantha Power and Susan Rice determined back in 2011 to be “rebels” worthy of weapons, missiles and MANPADS to advance their cause.
Don’t forget that pesky detail. EVER.
The Coptic Christians executed today in Libya spent their last moments in prayer.
Islamic State released a video on Sunday purporting to show the militant group beheading 21 Egyptian Christians kidnapped in Libya.
The Egyptians, dressed in orange jump suits, were beheaded after being forced down on the ground. The video appeared on the Twitter feed of a website that supports Islamic State.
For those who doubt the 2015 ISIS terrorists (murderers) and the 2011 Libyan “rebels” are the same entity allow me to present pictoral confirmation from the spring/summer of 2011 in Libya:
Those pictures of al-Qaeda in Libya were taken WHILE Hilly Clinton, Susan Rice, Samantha Power and President nObama decided to remove Gaddaffi and give power to these Islamist interests. As a consequence Libya devolved into civil war.
In addition, another face surfaced to support the Libyan interventionist policy of President nObama, in the personage of Senator John McCain who also worked to insure that al-Qaeda took over power.
In 2011 you can see Ambassador Chris Stevens and Senator John McCain walking directly through the Eastern Libya city of Benghazi where al-Qaeda flags were flying above the courthouse – directly over their heads.
FUBAR
Two years later John McCain shows up again in Syria to meet a new batch of “rebels”. In this next picture you can see McCain in Syria 2013:
Many people have actually identified ISIS’s supreme leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as the man immediately to the left of McCain in the background. Compare for yourself and see using this known ISIS leadership chart (Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi) is at the top.
Other people, including McCain’s nervous staff, have refuted whether it is actually al-Baghdadi with Senator McCain in that concerning 2013 picture.
Personally, I absolutely believe it is al-Baghdadi because the other person directly to the left in the foreground is the identified ISIS Press Officer, Abu Mosa. Mosa was killed and became part of a propaganda campaign against ISIS by the U.S. Department of State.
So yeah, you would have to be blind not to see that Senator McCain was part of the ideological team compromised of Hilly Clinton, Samantha Power, Susan Rice and President nObama. This team not only destroyed Libya, they ushered in the Islamic State (ISIS).
McCain is part of the team and also part of the problem.
This is why Qatar spends money to support John McCain, and why McCain hired Elizabeth O’Bagy.
Now the Coptic Christians in Libya are paying the price…. and the only hope for punishment or push back against them is going to come from Egypt’s President Fattah al-Sisi, who, it must be noted, is NOT considered an ally of the U.S. nObama administration because al-Sisi has been fighting the Muslim Brotherhood and President nObama supports the Brotherhood.
Go figure.
FUBAR !
