Obama and his memory



In March of 2015, Mr. Obama ...

only learned of Hillary Clinton's private email address use for official State Department business after a New York Times report, he told CBS News in an interview.
CBS News senior White House correspondent Bill Plante asked Mr. Obama when he learned about her private email system after his Saturday appearance in Selma, Alabama.  "The same time everybody else learned it through news reports," the president told Plante.

 According to FBI documents released on Friday September 23, 2016, from a Politico column:
In an April 5, 2016 interview with the FBI, Abedin was shown an email exchange between Clinton and Obama, but the longtime Clinton aide did not recognize the name of the sender.
"Once informed that the sender's name is believed to be pseudonym used by the president, Abedin exclaimed: 'How is this not classified?'" the report says. "Abedin then expressed her amazement at the president's use of a pseudonym and asked if she could have a copy of the email."

 Are they serial liars yet, or just liars ... or is there another category for them ... unaware, uncertain, forgetful ... qualities we desperately need in a president.  Perhaps Obama and Clinton both forgot they had communicated ...

Musings

I have, many times, been unfortunate enough to stumble upon, and end up reading (reading is not the unfortunate part, as no one forces you to read anything, but I have a need to read whatever is in front of me, however wasteful) comments concerning our military, or the men and women who serve in our armed forces - hateful and vile comments.

Every person who loves and cherishes freedom, individual liberty of action and thought, of religion, and family, of hope and intellect - should give thanks for the nearly 1.5 million men and women in our active forces, and the nearly equal number in reserve.

These men and women, every day, stand against a tide that will not, and cannot be placated, regardless of what a few useless wankers may believe. It does not make you fashionable to hate the war, just simplistic. It does not make you a humanist to oppose the military, just naive. It does not make you hip to denigrate, criticize, and hate the military - just dangerous and stupid. History is on the side of those who understand the difference. Our flag is the symbol of that difference.


History stands against those who would capitulate and compromise.

We should, each day, remember the men and women who stand ready to fight, those who are fighting, and those who have given their lives, that all of us may follow whatever path we choose. They stand unyielding, against a tide of darkness intent upon swallowing all of humanity, and each day we owe them more, for they do it not because they wake up and decide they want to die, but they do it because that is what they do and who they are. They have no desire to give up everything, but they will, because they are the final guard that stands between all that I care about and the darkness of the abyss, one I cannot begin to fathom.

Whether they serve in Iraq or Afghanistan, Korea, or Germany, Hawaii, or San Diego, Pensacola, Pendleton or March, Pope, Travis, Vandenburg, Hood, Huachuca, Dix, Irwin, Sill, Lejeune, Bliss, Meade (and many others). I owe them my eternal gratitude.

For all human beings - their greatest wish, if they love liberty and freedom - should be to pray that the detractors and haters of the United States are wrong in their predictions. The day our military ceases to remain as strong as it has been these past decades, is the day the United States will begin a slow decline, culminating in the collapse of Western Civilization.


(I admit - Western Civilization will not fall the next day. It took the Roman Empire several hundred years to finally collapse ... so we will have a generation or two, but it would be traced back to the decline in the US military and US influence. Those who don't care or who would cheer said events, are not American nor are they human, for what would follow, would make all the barbarism in history pale in the bloodbath that follows. The exact time frame is less important than the correlation.)




"Each of these heroes stands in the unbroken line of patriots who have dared to die that freedom might live and grow and increase in its blessings."-- Franklin Delano Roosevelt

"We sleep soundly in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm." ----Winston Churchill.

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse." --- John Stuart Mill



Blogurpose

What could possibly be the purpose of all these posts? It is not to offer my opinion per se, rather - for the longest time I would collect / print off articles on scores of topics and they would pile up, for I have no other means of containing dozens of articles a week. I tried filing them, but that is boring. of course the articles could be saved as pdf or scanned or ... and that is more time than I feel like wasting - this is the easiest.

This blog service provided the answer. I could paste/link them on here, and include whatever point or purpose they were printed for (labels), with whatever thought at the time motivated the saving of the article. The blog becomes a filing cabinet, and while I wish it could be kept private, visible to no one, I cannot figure that out, if it is even possible.

It's my filing cabinet.
