Bashir is a Britt by birth. His parents are pakis supposedly Christians but then so is zero. You never know about these far left clowns. He got famous by interviewing princess di and michael J than hit the “big time” when he went to the loser channel MSLSD.Hopefully he will be history in another six months.
Regarding Iran, there is talk on FR today about Netanyahu being incoherent with Candy over a “bad deal”, and wondering if O & Kerry’s startling surrender to Iran is just a smokescreen to cover O’care problems.
#1 - I see the ordinarily lucid Bibi like a grieving parent after their child is run down by a drunk driver, and the reporter shoves the mic in the face and asks “How does it feel?”
#2 - Iran should be grateful for our feckless leader giving them all they wanted (despite countless “promises” they would never become a nuke state), i.e. giving them a green light on nukes plus $4B/year, but does this so-called moderate new leader sound even a wee bit grateful?
He seems to be very spiteful and wanting only payback for the “martyred” nuke scientists who have been “assassinated”, and he is crowing about the West not being able to drag down the Revolution after all these years of pitiful attempts.

I agree with you that such coarse, disgusting, vile descriptions talk should not be allowed on the air, especially where it is misapplied to a fine woman like Sarah.
However I do think we should be allowed to be reminded of the threat Islamization is to our way of life and to the the world, and seeing video of the Towers attacked from time to time may keep it in the public conscience.
Sarah represents the Dems war on married women. They represent the two things Dems hate, loving men and having healthy independent children inside a normal family.
Pray America is Waking
Absolutely right about media covering or not covering. Like a tree falling in the forest.
Same way with employment numbers. Every month they brag about “O created” 80,000 (pick a number) jobs last month. But they never tell us how many jobs were LOST, how many able-bodied people of working age dropped out of the labor force entirely, how many went on permanent SS disabiliity, etc. In other words, what is a reasonable NET number?
And do they count part-time jobs the same as full-time jobs (if there are any)? Do those people cut to 29 hours earn the same pay they did at 40? (Probably not - but they still are expected to perform the same amount of work)
Everything has been a total deception.
Do you really think so, Pat?
I used to think that.
But then again, I used to think that people wouldn’t re-elect someone so hell-bent on destroying the country, either.
We thought that people would “get it” about Obamacare, yet it seems like it’s going to take cancelling their insurance plans to make them see it is the disaster we’ve been telling them all along.
The media has been spinning the TEA Party into a group of racist crazies without a detailed explanation and, to an extent, it’s worked.
No, never dismiss the power of the constant big lie. It is used against us far too often.
Time we told the constant big truth.
A deal with Iran that lets them keep or make a nuclear weapon is a very, very BAD DEAL.
We have just rereleased the ancient but powerful and now reborn Persian Empire on the world.
On Iran, just as traitor Kerry was once again* (*see Paris talks with VC) selling out our country and way-of-life (giving green light to Iranian nukes), the grand poobah himself once came out and showed the true intentions towards Israel (also the peanut galley chant: “Death to America”):

Thanks....I thought it odd this court or any would have 8 judges.
I must note that it was I who first mentioned Netanyahu’s weirdness on Crowley’s show.
It was like he was totally thinking about something else and he kept repeating the same thing over and over.
It was not normal I tell you.
Lord he despises Obama. Every other phrase out of his mouth is “we disagree at times but we agree many times as well”....to that effect.
Meaning....”I hate the man with every cell in my body and we agree on nothing.”
I like Bibi and think he has more in his thumb than O has in his whole body.
But something was really wrong today.
Well all I can say is that Bibi has TOLD USA, Congreses and Putin that IF they give Iran a green light then they HAVE TO take out Iranian nuke facilities. It is and was NOT a bluff.
O and Val/Jar (born in Iran) think he is bluffing, or that he can be cajoled over money. Some people have character. They do not know of Masada, where Jews when to the last person defending themselves against the Romans. They are committed. O & Kerry see Jews as those who willingly boarded the cattle cars and entered the showers.
O is spitting in the face of G-d. But then again his deity, if any, is Allah
We shall see.
Meanwhile the American Jewish community is thinking Israel is getting her just desserts. Amazing. Just like 1938-45
Shalom
After this expect something else on its heals. Possibly a another debt ceiling or more likely amnesty. You can be sure both are in the wings since they think they can win on both and each one brings them closer to next November when it really counts.
They will play us like a fiddle until then. Let's hope American voters are smart enough to see through it all.Lots at stake in 2014.
Here’s a cut from the link really good stuff.
Looks like the dc court that was 4/4 will now be 4/7 real quick thanks to the nuking of our side.
“As of Thursday, there are eight active judges on the D.C. appeals court with three seats vacant. The judges are split 4 to 4 among Democratic and Republican appointees. Ms. Millett’s arrival at the appeals court would break that tie in favor of Democratic appointees.
In addition, the president has nominated candidates for the two other vacant positions, Georgetown Law Professor Cornelia Pillard, and Robert Wilkins, a federal judge in Washington. With the Senate’s new majority vote rule, both are expected to win easy confirmation.
Once they join the appeals court the split among Democratic and Republican appointees will be 7 to 4, among the court’s active judges.
Although the composition of the court based on the party affiliation of the nominating president doesn’t guarantee success in any given case, it can’t hurt to have judges who share an administration’s perspective on key issues, legal analysts say.
Within the past year the D.C. Circuit has handed significant defeats to the Obama administration, ruling that the president violated the Constitution when he made recess appointments to the National Labor Relations Board. (That case is set for argument at the Supreme Court on Jan. 13.)
On Nov. 1, the D.C. Circuit again handed the administration a major defeat when it ruled in favor of a corporation challenging the so-called contraception mandate in the Affordable Care Act, the president’s embattled health-care reform law.
The appeals court said the owners of the company could challenge the ACA’s contraception mandate as a violation of their religious rights. Government lawyers had argued that for-profit corporations do not have any religious rights. (Three cases raising the same issue have been appealed to the Supreme Court. The court will consider whether to hear those cases during a private conference next week.)
In addition to its strategic location, the D.C. Circuit is also viewed as a training ground for potential Supreme Court nominees. For example, if confirmed, Millett will be filling the seat left vacant in 2005 when then Judge John Roberts was tapped by President Bush for a promotion. He is now chief justice of the United States.
Senate battles over who should win confirmation to the Supreme Court are as old as the nation. But the increasing ferocity of battles over appeals court and even some district court nominees is relatively new.
Democrats complain that Republicans in the Senate have resorted to unprecedented levels of obstructionism to block Obama judicial nominees. Until Thursday’s rule change, the Republicans had blocked five nominees. Now the list is likely to drop to two.
The two blocked nominees are Goodwin Liu, the former dean of University of California at Berkeley School of Law, and former New York Solicitor General Caitlin Halligan.
Both withdrew their names from consideration after facing open-ended opposition from Republicans. Ms. Halligan is a lawyer in New York. Mr. Liu is serving on the California Supreme Court.
During the Bush administration Senate Democrats blocked 10 of the president’s nominees to federal appeals courts. Five of the nominees were later given a vote and approved as part of a broader compromise. The other five were not confirmed.
In comments from the White House, President Obama acknowledged that neither the Democrats nor the Republicans were blameless in the use of filibuster tactics.
But he said he supports the Senate’s new rule in the face of what he called an unprecedented pattern of obstruction in Washington.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R) of Iowa had a different perspective on the Senate’s new rule. “This is about a naked power grab, and nothing more,” he said in his floor statement.
The judicial work load at the D.C. Circuit did not justify filling the three slots, he said. The move was more about doing whatever it takes to insulate the administration’s policies from judicial review, the senator said.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell quoted Democrats as saying that it was critical to staff the D.C. Circuit with Democratic judges.
“The reason is clear,” Senator McConnell said. “As one liberal activist put it earlier this year, President Obama’s agenda ‘runs through the D.C. Circuit.’
“In short, unlike the first two years of the Obama administration, there’s now a legislative check on the president. And the administration doesn’t much like checks and balances. So it wants to circumvent the people’s representatives with an aggressive regulatory agenda, and our Democrat colleagues want to facilitate that by ‘filling up’ a court that will rule on his agenda – a court that doesn’t even have enough work to do,” he said.
McConnell warned that the new rule established an important precedent that Democrats might regret should they lose control of the Senate and the presidency.
“As the Ranking Member of the Judiciary Committee put it yesterday: ‘If [the Majority Leader] changes the rules for some judicial nominees, he is effectively changing them for all judicial nominees, including the Supreme Court,’ ” McConnell said.”
Meanwhile the bozos running the U.S are feckless, reckless and totally inept not having a clue.They may know Chicago warfare and thugocracy but when it comes to the grand scale of the world they are truly clueless.
absolutely correct Shalom and yes part time jobs are counted as jobs with some months being 79% part time and many burger flippers. Welcome to hope and fundamental change.
I see a parallel with the Cuban community here in South Florida. 25 years ago you couldn't find a Cuban/American anywhere that was a demoncrat. And the all hated Castro and communism. Today not so much.
