nObama: Netanyahu Said 'Nothing New' 
(Read on for the full analysis of Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks below.)
In a rebuttal to Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu's speech before Congress, Barack nObama petulantly insisted, "As far as I can tell, there was nothing new. ... The prime minister didn't offer any viable alternatives." But neither has nObama, which is precisely the reason for Netanyahu's visit. The problem isn't that Israel has no strategy for halting Iran's nuclear program; rather nObama doesn't agree with the military response it would likely entail. He claimed, "Iran has in fact frozen its program, rolled back some of its most dangerous, highly enriched uranium, and subjected itself to the kinds of verifications and inspections that we had not previously seen." What delusional absurdity. Iran is doing the complete opposite, much of it underground, but nObama nevertheless says his plan is working and nuked Netanyahu for opposing the deal that prompted negotiations: "When we shaped that interim deal ... Netanyahu made almost the precise same speech about how dangerous that deal was going to be." Well, yeah. Look at where we are now. Amping up the tough-talk even further, nObama promised, "What I can guarantee is that if it's a deal I sign off on, I will be able to prove that it is the best way for us to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons." And you can also keep your health insurance. -The Patriot Post
Pelosi 'Near Tears' Throughout Bibi's Speech
House Minority Leader Nancy Pulosi suffered mightily through Benjamin Netanyahu's speech. And it had barely concluded before she released a statement: "The unbreakable bonds between the United States and Israel are rooted in our shared values, our common ideals and mutual interests. ... That is why, as one who values the U.S.-Israel relationship, and loves Israel, I was near tears throughout the Prime Minister's speech -- saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States as part of the P5 +1 nations, and saddened by the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation." Netanyahu's speech was of value because Barack nObama has so spectacularly failed when it comes to nuclear negotiations with Iran. Pulosi can cry about insults to her intelligence, but the real crying shame is her party is so partisan that many Democrats refused to stand even when Netanyahu declared there must never be another Holocaust. Astoundingly shameful. -The Patriot Post
House Passes 'Clean' DHS Bill
Left with no viable alternative, the House voted 257-167 Tuesday to pass a full-year funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security. More than two-thirds of Republicans voted "no." The vote essentially ends the fruitless standoff over Barack nObama's unconstitutional immigration actions, as the Senate passed the same bill, 68-31, last week. Unfortunately, Republicans spent more time fighting each other than countering nObama, and from the outset they chose an unwinnable strategy. As the old adage goes, never take a hostage you're not willing to shoot, and Republicans clearly forgot that advice. Again. Speaker backstabber John Boehner blamed the Senate: "Unfortunately, the fight was never won in the other chamber. Democrats stayed united and blocked our bill, and our Republican colleagues in the Senate never found a way to win this fight." But he also offered a silver lining. "I am as outraged and frustrated as you at the lawless and unconstitutional actions of this president," backstabber Boehner told House Republicans during a conference meeting. "I believe this decision -- considering where we are -- is the right one for this team, and the right one for this country. The good news is that the president's executive action has been stopped, for now. This matter will continue to be litigated in the courts, where we have our best chance of winning this fight." Time will tell, but nObama has proved he's not willing to bow to anyone. More... -The Patriot Post
SCOTUS Hears Second Challenge to nObamaCare
Today the Supreme Court will hear the arguments in King v. Burwell, a challenge to nObamaCare that contends subsidies granted via the federal health exchange are illegal under the "Affordable" Care Act because the law permits them only under state exchanges. The pressure is on Chief Justice John Roberts, who was the deciding vote when the court upheld nObamaCare in 2012. In his last opinion on OnbamaCare, Roberts -- to paraphrase Charles Dickens -- made the law into an ass, declaring the federal government could compel people to buy goods (a.k.a. health insurance) by calling it a tax. Because he showed himself susceptible to political intimidation in 2012, the Left is now running editorials claiming that, if Roberts allows SCOTUS to strike down nObamaCare this time, it will show itself to be a bench of activist judges. In The Washington Post, leftist reporter Robert Barnes wrote, "[T]he eponymous head of the Roberts court has the most to lose. After all, its decisions cannot be respected if the court is not respected." In his nomination hearing, Roberts said he was an umpire that called "balls and strikes and not to pitch or bat." But if Roberts ends up being the meek umpire at home plate scared of the crowd, he may redefine "state" to mean any level of government. And that ruling will not only cement nObamaCare into law, it will open up a flood of federal government expansion. More...

Warren Buffett Doesn't Like Being Demonized
Warren Buffett may be the poster child for the Left's goal of taxing the rich through a "Buffett rule," but it doesn't mean the man likes the law when the political speech is stripped away. Sen. Elizabeth Warren has been griping about the rich, not hiding the fact she wants to strip Wall Street of its money. Buffett doesn't like it and he put down a Coke long enough to air his grievance to CNBC. "She would do better if she was less angry and demonized less," Buffett said. "I believe in hate the sin, love the sinner. And I also believe in praising by name and criticizing by category. … I do think it's a mistake to get angry with your -- with people that disagree with you. I mean, in the end we do have to work together." Looks like Buffett wants the government to ask politely if it could just take his money. Notably, Warren attained her position by playing people like him against a jealous middle and lower class. In other words, it's Warren's style that made the "Buffett rule" popular.

Hilly’s State Dept. Fired U.S. Ambassador In 2011 For Personal Email
(theconservativetreehouse.com) - Although Hilly Clinton and her allies may be claiming that her private e-mail system is no big deal, Hilly’s State Department actually forced the 2012 resignation of the U.S. ambassador to Kenya in part for setting up an unsanctioned private e-mail system...According to a 2012 report from the State Deptartment’s inspector general, former U.S. ambassador to Kenya Scott Gration set up a private e-mail system for his office in 2011. The inspector general’s report specifically noted that Gration violated State Department policy by using a private, unsanctioned e-mail service for official. In its executive summary listing its key judgments against the U.S. ambassador to Kenya who served under Hilly Clinton, the inspector general stated that Gration’s decision to willfully violate departmental information security policies highlighted Gration’s “reluctance to accept clear-cut U.S. Government decisions.” The report claimed that this reluctance to obey governmental security policies was the former ambassador’s “greatest weakness.” (read more) And yet, its okay for Hilly to do the same. These idiots need to search before they make a commit. http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/03/05/hillarys-state-dept-fired-u-s-ambassador-in-2011-for-using-personal-email-and-breaching-security-protocols/

Muslim Man Stabs Wife 15 Times for Wanting to Learn English
 |
(answeringmuslims.com) - Here's a fact that our leaders just can't get their minds around...Beliefs have consequences. We're told not to question the beliefs of Muslims, and that we're racists if we do...But when a man believes what Allah and Muhammad say about women, there is a significant danger of abuse. If we ignore this danger, aren't we saying that Muslim women don't matter? Nazakat Ali, 30, stabbed his 27-year old partner Shahzana Kausar during a row at their home in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, after she made it clear she wanted to enrol at college to study English.

Egyptian Govt Closes 27,000 MOSQUES in Move to Fight Terrorism
(pamelageller.com) - The West will have to follow suit at some point. Here in the States, over 80% of the mosques are teaching and preaching jihad. It’s just a matter of time...An Egyptian administrative court on Feb. 18 upheld the Ministry of Religious Endowments’ decision issued in September 2013 to close down neighborhood places of worship of less than 80 square meters (861 square feet), a move intended to protect young people from the militancy and extremism that can prevail in such places, which lack the legal standing to hold Friday prayers. http://pamelageller.com/2015/03/egyptian-government-closes-27000-mosques-in-move-to-fight-islamic-terrorism.html/

What Are You Really Willing to Do to Stop Terrorists From Entering?
(Michael Cutler) - The question that serves as the title of my commentary today is the question every American, irrespective of political affiliation, must ask their elected senators and congressional representatives...For all too many of our leaders, while they claim that they would stop at nothing to protect America and Americans, the reality is far different. Despite their claims to the contrary, they will not do anything to truly secure our borders or instill real integrity to the immigration system or the process by which applications for visas or immigration benefits are adjudicated. This is the dire reality our nation and our citizens face today. http://www.frontpagemag.com/2015/michael-cutler/what-are-you-really-willing-to-do-to-stop-terrorists-from-entering-the-u-s/?utm_source=FrontPage+Magazine&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=291aaf9099-Mailchimp_FrontPageMag&utm_term=0_57e32c1dad-291aaf9099-156509103

The Pointlessness of the Two-Phased Nuclear Deal
(Majid Rafizadeh) - The deadline for the “first phase” of nuclear talks between the Islamic Republic and the six world powers (known as the P5+1; the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, and China) is approaching...The prolonged negotiations appear to be making progress, according to Secretary of State Hanoi John Kerry. In addition, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif stated that both sides came to “a better understanding” at the negotiation. After the interim nuclear deal was reached in November 2013, the nuclear negotiations between the two sides were again divided into two stages in order to reach a final and comprehensive nuclear deal. Hanoi Kerry previously proposed the two-phased nuclear negotiations. The question that is being ignored by the mainstream media is: What are the real objectives of dividing the final negotiations into two stages? http://www.frontpagemag.com/2015/majid-rafizadeh/the-pointlessness-of-the-two-phased-nuclear-deal/?utm_source=FrontPage+Magazine&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=291aaf9099-Mailchimp_FrontPageMag&utm_term=0_57e32c1dad-291aaf9099-156509103

Which is a hate crime, and which is "random folks"? Left: Survivors of the terrorist attack on the kosher Hyper Cacher supermarket in Paris flee the store, as police move in. Right: The three victims who were murdered by their neighbor in Chapel Hill.
Hate Crimes: US Lynches the Facts
(Douglas Murray) - The police are now under serious pressure -- as they were in the cases of Trayvon Martin and "Ferguson" -- to attribute the crime to causes other than those they may actually think to be the case...There are many difficulties with "hate crimes" legislation. But one of the worst is that it turns the law from being blind into being a tool that can be used not only to drive home a political vision, but one that can be used to ignore and even lobby to change facts. While a lot of people seem not to want to recognize when Jews are killed as Jews, the truth is that a very great number of people appear to want Muslims or Blacks, when they are killed, to have been murdered because they were Muslims or Blacks. This is the disturbing trend that seems to have fed into these moments of Presidential blindness. http://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/5272/hate-crimes

Trey Gowdy slaps Hilly with subpoenas for ‘private’ emails in Benghazi
(bizpacreview.com) - The House committee investigating the 2012 terror attack in Benghazi, Libya, issued subpoeanas Wednesday demanding emails related to the attack from the private server owned by former Secretary of State Hilly Clinton... “I want the documents,” House Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., told reporters, according to The Associated Press. “Sooner rather than later.” House Speaker backstabber John Boehner said Clinton’s use of a private email account with a privately owned server — in possible violation of the Federal Records Act — would not stop House investigators from obtaining the emails. http://www.bizpacreview.com/2015/03/05/trey-gowdy-slaps-hillary-with-subpoenas-for-private-emails-in-benghazi-investigation-184265

\ The Founders Foresaw nObama, But Not Boehner And McCon-nell
(conservativehq.com) - Conservatives, concerned, if not already in a white-hot fury, about President nObama’s frequent trampling on the Constitution and governing traditions of the United States...have sometimes been tempted to view what’s been going on in Washington for the past six years as something the Framers of the Constitution never anticipated, and hence failed to guard against in our Nation’s founding document. But nothing could be further from the truth – the Constitution, and the Federalist Papers that explain how it was expected to operate, created a system of effective checks on a "usurping" or power hungry executive. The Framers set-up a system of three branches of government; executive, legislative and judicial, with not just the assumption, but with the clear direction, that they would enforce the Constitution upon each other. And, in the conclusion of Federalist 48 James Madison introduced the problem we face today: http://www.conservativehq.com/article/19819-founders-foresaw-obama-not-boehner-and-McConnell

For the record, I am no fan of Hilly Clinton. On September 18 of last year, I wrote a commentary titled “Go Away, Hilly” in which I asked “Other than earning her law degree, name one thing that Hilly Clinton has accomplished on her own. Her accomplishments—slim as they are—have been achieved on the coattails of either Bill Clinton or Barack nObama.”
Ron Fournier is the Senior Political Columnist and Editorial Director of National Journal. Prior to that, he worked at the Associated Press for 20 years, most recently as its Washington Bureau Chief. On March 3rd, he wrote an opinion piece titled “Maybe she doesn’t want to run in 2016, top Democrats wonder. Maybe she shouldn’t.”

Hilly Will Not Run for President
Alan Caruba
(factsnotfantasy.blogspot.com) - The revelations, reported initially in the most left-wing newspaper in the nation, The New York Times, that Hilly Clinton used her own private emails to conduct public business, suggests that there are forces within the Democratic Party that do not want her to be its candidate for President in 2016.
It’s not like Hilly did not know she was supposed to use the State Department’s email system for reasons of national security; her private emails could have been hacked by forces unfriendly to the U.S. All government employees are routinely briefed on the laws that require this.
Beyond Hilly, what I object to is the necessity to raise millions with which to secure either Party’s nomination and a billion to run for the presidency. We are electing someone who has literally bought the election courtesy of donors who have made the selection for the rest of us. There is something fundamentally undemocratic about that.
That said, I don’t think Hilly Clinton will run in 2016.
That may surprise you, but it surprises me as well. And, yes, I could be wrong, but the revelations about her patently illegal email use while Secretary of State suggests that there are forces within her Party that want to end her candidacy now rather than later. They are sending her a message.
“Two weeks ago,” wrote Fournier, “we learned that the Clinton Foundation accepted contributions from foreign countries. Assurances from the nObama administration and Clinton aides that no donations were made during her tenure as Secretary of State were proven false.”
“Now The New York Times is reporting that Clinton used a personal email account to conduct government business as Secretary of State, an apparent violation of federal requirements that her records be retained.” He quoted one unnamed “senior Democrat” as saying “This story has legs as long as the election”, noting that many senior Democrats “are angry.”
“My concern,” wrote Fournier, “is that Clinton does not see this controversy as a personal failing. Rather, she sees it as a political problem that can be fixed with more polls, more money, and more attacks.” He described her problem as “a lack of shame about money, personal accountability, and transparency.”
If there is one thing to which the Democratic Party is totally dedicated, it is winning the White House and control of the Congress. Ever since President nObama has been in office, it has taken a beating as voters have relentlessly transferred power to the Republican Party in Congress and in many States. It is an unmistakable trend and one that must keep Democrat strategists up at night.
In January 2014, a Pew Research poll found that 69% of women who identified themselves as Democrats hoped to see a female President in their lifetime, compared to only 20% of Republican women. In April 2014, a Rasmussen poll found that “51% of likely U.S. voters have at least a somewhat favorable opinion of Clinton, while 44% view her unfavorably.”
The Huffington Post analysis of the Pew poll concluded that “not wanting Clinton in office is the only one explanation for Republican woman’s relative lack of enthusiasm about electing a candidate of their own gender”, adding that “It may be that (the) gender of a candidate has simply become a less compelling factor for voters…”
Six years of having a President who was elected primarily because he is black have taught voters that race and gender are insufficient factors on which to base one’s vote.
Six years of a sluggish economy, massive unemployment, declining wealth among the Middle Class, and a disaster called foreign policy will influence 2016 votes along with, of course, whoever the candidates may be.
Six years of a sluggish economy, massive unemployment, declining wealth among the Middle Class, and a disaster called foreign policy will influence 2016 votes along with, of course, whoever the candidates may be.
So I will return to my conjecture that Hilly, no matter her desire to be the first woman U.S. President, will also have to address the practical realities of politics. Opposition from within the Democratic Party will likely be a deciding factor. She has put off announcing her intentions until April. If she puts it off again that would suggest some deep misgivings.
If you had the choice between a life of great wealth and fame as opposed to the daily inquisition and criticism that comes with the presidency, which would you choose?
