HuffPost something: "Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) told his Democratic caucus last week in a private meeting that a top House Republican said to President Barack Obama, "I cannot even stand to look at you," according to two Democratic senators who were present. * The account was confirmed by two Senate Democratic aides who said they independently learned of the exchange from other senators. * A White House official said Thursday that the administration did relay such a message to Reid, but that it was the result of a miscommunication. * While the quote attributed to a Republican lawmaker in the House GOP meeting with the President is not accurate, there was a miscommunication when the White House read out that meeting to Senate Democrats, and we regret the misunderstanding," the official said in a statement" -- A White House "official"? Hey, this lie could only have originated from Judas 00-bama's mouth. No WH "official" is anything but a 'parrot' for Judas 00-bama.

HuffPost subsequent headline: "Harry Reid Told Caucus That Pete Sessions Was Behind Obama Insult, Senators Say --Monkey see, monkey do. Give Reid full credit for adding a name to the lie.

The implications that Boston pitcher Jon Lester has a "foreign substance" on his glove will probably just increase his effectiveness. Cardinal batters (and media) will be more concerned at catching him doing something illegal than they will at catching up to his fast ball.

---

Online headline: "White House Goes Pink For Breast Cancer Awareness Month" -- Hmm wonder what will it look like during February, "Pride" week, the 4th of July weekend and Labor Day?

That judge that threw out Michael Skakle's conviction based on his lawyers not representing him well... Not every lawyer is good to begin with, but there'd be more justice if judges threw out lawyers who filed frivolous and unwarranted suits.

The last count I saw was about 1.6 BILLION rounds of AMMO that Homeland Security had bought up on the open market. Anyone seen an updated number?

Why is Judas 00-bama and his Obamarat spinmeisters trying to blame user overload as to why the 00-bamaCare website has collapsed? Which genius did not plan for user overload since hundreds of millions would have to access it?

---

Obamarat proponents still think the reason so many couldn't afford medical care/insurance was because they "couldn't afford it" then but now can. Excuse me... but with fewer people working, and more of those part time than ever before, what makes the 00-bamarats think, uh..feel, that people will buy insurance rather than food for their families?

---

In retrospect, Judas 00-bama naming Jack Lew as the Secretary of the Treasury was accidentally a stroke of genius. My thinking is 00-bama thought his name was Jack Loo, and wanted a scapegoat to flush.

---

McClatchy story: "President Barack Obama is expected to nominate Theodore Mitchell, a former California educator and the leader of a nonprofit philanthropic organization that funds education, as undersecretary at the U.S. Department of Education." -- Good grief...Now our kids will be under the influence of Arne Duncan and the "Chicago experiment" on "California halucinations".

---

Now that mainstream media has 'moved on' from whether Judas 00-bama will cross the line he drew in Syrian sand, do you wonder whether ASSwad lies awake at night waiting for Judas 00-bama to break this promise as he has every other one he's ever made in campaign mode?

Online story: "Sixty-three high-powered semi-automatic guns disappeared from a truck two weekends ago, according to an internal law enforcement memo obtained exclusively by CBS News. Four men were arrested in connection to the case, CBS affiliate KSLA Shreveport reported Tuesday. * A shipment of AR-15 Colt Law Enforcement Carbines left Hartford, Conn., home of Colt Manufacturing, on a truck headed south, but some of the guns on board the truck were missing when the truck was inspected in its final destination of Shreveport, La. The missing guns have yet to be recovered>" -- Has anyone seen Pric Holder out promoting "fast&furious 2.0"?

Online story: "Three (California) children were injured by shrapnel after a fellow elementary school student pulled the trigger of an assault rifle mounted on a police motorcycle during a school assembly, authorities said. * The AR-15 was locked to the side of the motorcycle that was on display at Newman Elementary School on Wednesday during an anti-drug program when a student managed to fire it, Chino police spokeswoman Tamrin Olden said." -- Well, guess Senator Feinstein and Rep Pelosi will be introducing new laws next week to prohibit police officers from having guns.

---

If there was open bidding by companies to supply parts/aspects of the 00-bamaCare health program, the real question is whether the contractors were paid completely before their work was tested and finished.

---

You know...how many stores have their grand opening without opening quietly for a week or so for a dry run. Why wasn't any of this tried before 00-bamaCare was rolled out?

---

Judas 00- bama could reform our main immigration problem simply by producing a verifiable birth certificate, and requiring photo IDs to vote.

---

Judas 00- bama says immigration reform will be good for our economy and 'our people'. What he didn't say was that his idea of immigration reform would be good for America, or America's future.

Online story: "If there was any doubt that the US housing "recovery" is anything but the latest speculative play by deep-pocketed (namely those who already have access to cheap funding) investors, who are now engaged in rotating cash gains out of capital markets and into real estate, on their way hoping to flip newly-acquired properties to other wealthy investors, then the most recent, September, RealtyTrac report will put that to rest. * Institutional investors (purchasing 10 or more properties in the last 12 months) accounted for 14 percent of all sales in September, up from 9 percent in August and also 9 percent in September 2012. September had the highest percentage of institutional investor purchases of any month since RealtyTrac began tracking in January 2011" -- Wonder if anyone has been keeping up with the "H.A.R.P" funds?

---

You know, if the Obamarats that are speaking up now had voted to delay 00-bamaCare for one year, there wouldn't have been a shutdown, and Judas 00-bama wouldn't be embarrassed at the rollout until next year close to the mid-term elections. . Now we know why they didn't speak out.

---

Hmmm, interesting... the State Department's "Rewards for Justice" program is set up to pay out for info for terrorists arrests on the list published by the State Department. After 14 months, no one's name who is "wanted" for the Benghazi attack causing the deaths of four Americans had been put on the list. Talking about avoiding the issue....

With 22 personal people on Michelle's taxpayer paid personal staff (and obviously "essential"), you would think she could have assigned at least one of them to weed & care for her garden.

You know,you're sitting in your car at a stop light and the person in the car in front of you is engrossed in what's on his/her cellphone when the light turns green and the driver is oblivious because he/she is texting. Honking your horn is the only real option, but that may only make you look impatient. We need an alternative. We need something that will scare the bejeezus out of the driver in front. How about a novelty buzzer that can be placed behind your grill that has the sound of severely screeching brakes...sorta like a car trying to stop from rear-ending you. A controller you mount on you steering wheel with volume and length control would be perfect . Maybe if some thoughtless drivers had an experience on the receiving end of this, they might just put off checking/answering their phones until they get out of their cars.

---

You know, when I have a project that is not going well or just plain has me blocked, I'll turn my focus onto something that I know will be easier for me to get back on the right track. What is Judas 00-bama thinking by bringing immigration reform back up now?

Dang... the World Series looks like an episode of "Duck Dynasty".

Low info voter's L-E "soundoff": Tell me, Pastoral Institute, how you can wed Ben Carson’s hate speech with “servant leadership." -- Never has the time for "the truth will set you free" been more needed by the NAACP than now.

---

Extremely low info voter's L-E "soundoff": "The ideological temper tantrum thrown by Ted Cruz and the Tea Party cost the U.S. economy $24 billion. How can they say they care about the deficit?" -- We have to do something about public education... partucularly in math. $24 BILLION is barely 2/3rds of a months interest payments alone on the $17 Trillion dollar debt the government, and low-info voters have amassed and saddled us with!

You know what would cut down on stupid teenage postings on social media? Require proofs of age, then require people under 18 to be joined to a parents e-mail or social network account, and all the postings/messaging made by the minor, incoming and outgoing, be sent to the parent.

Having a new granddaughter has reintroduced us to the Disney Classics. It's been a while, but one obvious thing leaps out at you... Disney Classic movies are reminders of when stereotyping was dominant, and political correctness was non-existent.
