A "very disturbed" President Obama has ordered his top aides to restore death benefits today for families of military service members killed in action.

"The president was very disturbed to learn of this problem," said White House press secretary Jay Carney. "The president expects this to be fixed today. He was not pleased."

“How’s that for a dignified message for the bereaved families struggling to get to Dover AFB to collect the remains of their loved ones. IIRC that flight was scheduled to land today!”

At least they won’t have to listen to the lies that the video caused their deaths.

Too funny! He also let certain Federally owned sites be reopened today.

I guess his handlers told him that this just wasn’t working. His popularity ratings even in the optimistic MSM were 37% today.

The only good thing to come out of this is that it looks like they still don’t have enough power to completely crush we the people. But they’ll be working on that.

An excellent point that should be publicized.

If Obama can restore these things unilaterally, then he was clearly the one who was denying them in the first place. This is important particularly since the House had sent numerous bills requesting the reopening or restoration of various individual services that he had spitefully denied.

" Someone Cue up that Valerie Jarrett Quote again about their Enemies and making them pay."


Obama's source of deliberate pain to be enforced on the American people, his foes, enemies, in this government's shut down: " “After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.”

Make no mistake folks, it's not the Republicans at fault, they knew after the 2010 Republican shellacking of the Democrats that Obamacare would be tried to be repealed and Valerie gave us full warning and now they are implementing it in full force now.

This is what implosion looks like, no doubt about it.


The thing is that everyone who has been actually thinking this thing through for the last fifty years knows that it will eventually come to something like this. I figured the FedGov would eventually cave and just monetize the debt and make us Zimbabwe. But it may unravel even too fast to do that.

And we are not Zimbabwe. When we go, the whole thing goes.

The only thing that displeased Dicktator Obama is that the it became evident that the stinking finger of blame for the fiasco was pointing directly at HIM.

He always acts angry about something his own administration has done (most likely under his orders), as if he has nothing to do with it and is not ultimately responsible (he did the same act with the IRS scandal, and the Tea Party applications are still pending!). It’s amazing what you can get away with when the press is in your back pocket!

Oblunder makes another tactical mistake by allowing his rabid supporters in government to shut down benefits to our fallen heros.

For Obama, it’s more like: “What outrage can I fake?”

The only reason he is mad is because he got caught and its killing his polling numbers.

the same guy who said yesterday we can’t pick and choose what we open in Govt, all or nothing he wants.

Now he gets a lot of heat he acts as if he never knew and it was all to do with someone else , as it’s never him.

This poses the question: Can he do that? If so, and he has the authority over the purse to decide what gets funded, he is the one shutting the things down that are down. I guess like Judas, he holds the bag.

“”He must have seen it on TV.””

“ESPN doesn’t do news breaks.”

Neither does the cartoon network.
