According to Hillary Rodham Clinton, "the safety and well-being of Americans has to be our highest priority." Oh, really? That comment, proffered by our secretary of state Tuesday, is overshadowed by the serious jeopardy U.S. citizens now encounter thanks to the ideological blindness and national security incompetence of the Obama administration.
Since 2011 began, more than 20 Americans have been injured, killed or gone missing in the midst of violence in Lebanon, Tunisia, Iran, Egypt, Yemen, Bahrain, Libya, Mexico and the Indian Ocean. American citizens are being held by government authorities in Iran, Yemen and Pakistan and by pirates in Somalia. Our State Department says it is "concerned."
... His (Obama's) weakness, incoherence and passivity have bred chaos that places us all at risk.

In fact he has gone out of his way to see that misfortune falls on his enemies - real and imagined
Funny how I manage to get singled out each and every time I fly in or out of the USA.
Much more on this soon.
Yeah, except that none of this would be happening if this Usurper would have been properly vetted before being elected POTUS. Specifically, not being a Natural Born Citizen and then not seeing all of his records actions during his earlier life. Foxnews and North are part of the cover up. Odumbo is for a fact, ineligible to be POTUS.
I agree. Not only Obama but the Democrat Party and liberals as a whole do not care about individual Americans. When my wife and I were living in Phnom Penh back in 1997, a civil war broke out between Hun Sin and the opposition party. Fighting was moving quickly into town. The Embassy evacuated leaving only key personnel. We tried to call the Embassy all day but just got a recording saying everything was under control and stay inside. The word from Washington was that evacuating American citizens would send the wrong message, this, when all the other embassies were in the process of evacuating. No one knew what was going on.
Eventually we were evacuated with Thais because my wife’s family called and set it up when the Thai government made the decision to move. The US Embassies worldwide cannot be trusted to take care of citizens needs especially with liberals in charge. US citizens are expendable in the eyes of liberals.
I do not register with the US Embassy when I travel. I do not associate with State Department people. We learned a long time ago that we are on our own if the liberals are in charge.
Ping me to this when you're ready. Thanks.
“Foxnews and North are part of the cover up”
Of all the people to blame, I wouldn’t start with them.
The entire MSM was in the Obama camp, colluding to NOT tell us anything, but Obama’s campaign rethoric.
Remember, that Sean Hannity was pretty much the only one talking about Obama’s associations with Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers.
Those two are very minor in this whole story. There is a whole lot more that people "in the know" will not talk about now. The info is out there but because odumbo is not white, they will not talk about it. Foxnews is a main contributor of this scam. Hannity is one of the many that has been covering this up. Yeah, he has talked a little about the ineligibility componant but when it comes to his Fox show, he will not touch the Natural Born Citizen or lack there of in odumbo's case, aspect of this story. The teleprompter reader has not produced a valid birth certificate to this day and America is being destroyed because it is run by a bunch of socialists. This is all a horrible scam and we are paying the price. Thanks Fauxnews.

As far as I know, we are the only country that treats our citizens with so much contempt - it was not always like this.
I remember posting either here or on my blog at how the US embassy overseas celebrates American independence day. Used to be that Americans who lived in country were invited - that changed - now anybody but Americans are invited.
It was explained to me that the State Department did not want to "exclude" the locals on the 4th of July and so to be "inclusive", the locals in town are all invited and the Americans are all given the finger.
Registering yourself at the embassy overseas is not a wise thing to do - it is a sure fire way to invite trouble and I would not advise it. If there is trouble and you are an American, you are basically on your own.
Tell me honestly - what is the chance of that happening?
I just left the States last week and when I arrived at the airport to check in I was told I was on the don't fly list. I was dumbfounded and the counter staff said their was a flag on my name - that I needed clearance from TSA before being allowed on board - the lady made a call and 20 minutes later I was given a boarding pass with a ZZZZZZZ on it.
I find it strange that a week prior to this mess breakling out we removed the only carrier grioup we had from the Med.
Wonder why John McCain didn’t want to vet him? Practically endorsed him instead. It took House Republicans to stand up and impeach (and rightfully so) Bill Clinton. Then the good ol’ boys club (the Senate) rationalized that it would be “bad for the country” to remove Clinton. - Now, we are stuck with the “elder statesmen” Clintons for the foreseeable future.
Hillary’s usage of ‘has to be our highest priority’ is interesting it is the 3rd person usage of indicative of have. its meaning is telling because it means the following:
advantage over.
control or possess.
gain possession.
Hillary is telling us that the Obama plan is not to even consider the safety of the American. The government will not do anything to protect the safety and well being. It will take advantage of the crises (pl) to make forth inroads to take away the liberties and freedoms that the american people enjoy.
the sad reality is that Ollie North is right the Obama Administration gives a damn of what happens to Americans. Look at all his responses to what is happening in the Middle East. he only responds when the media and his base supporters tell him to respond, his responses are weak and ineffective. More like a whimper of a mouse to the roar of a lion. Obama is a gay president only concerned with his his own life and enjoyments. Thanks to the democrats socialists that elected him America is headed to some turbulent times. A president whom gives a rats butt for what happens. he showed his response right away with the oil crisis in the golf. Look at his first true response to an issue that happened to a so called friend in Harvard University - the police acted stupidly - without waiting for the facts. he never waits for thefacts he acts impulsively and than comes back and tries to back pedal for his imature response. this man has access to nuclear weapons, what he will shot first and than ask questions later when he has killed millions. i apologize because I had the wrong information. What a dummy he is.
Opposition should not be a searchable offense but it seems to be that it is.
