HuffPost/TIME headline: "Report: Botched execution wasn't caused by drugs * Who is really at fault -- and why" -- Hmmm...Liberals! Facts are that the execution wasn't "botched" (the execution was 100% successful..he died), and the only person at fault was the dead convict because he committed the crime. Typically, as liberals do, this article failed to address the now dead criminal's crime.. he made a 19 year old woman stand in a shallow grave, shot her with a sawed-off (illegal) shotgun, then buried her while she was still alive. Where's the liberal sympathy, concern, for Stephanie Neiman's family and friends?

Online story: "- Shi'te Muslim Iran is so alarmed by Sunni insurgent gains in Iraq that it may be willing to cooperate with Washington in helping Baghdad fight back, a senior Iranian official told Reuters. * Officials say Iran will send its neighbor advisers and weaponry, although probably not troops, to help its ally Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki check what Tehran sees as a profound threat to regional stability, officials and analysts say." -- Good grief... liberals see this as "good intentions" and applaud terrorists "compassion" and "human concern". The Ahmadine-JIHADist "tarbaby" don't say nothing... and Br'er Ahmadine-JIHAD just laughs from the middle of the briar patch.

Online headline: "Obama: The US Won't Send Troops Back Into Combat In Iraq" -- Hmmm, does that mean our soldiers alreadt there won't be able to take their bullet out of their pockets and load up?

Wow! Geraldo Rivera... yeah, that Geraldo Rivera... just blasted Judas 00-Barnum for the wimpiest response ever made. Yeah, the one about the situation in Iraq... Guess Chris M(_*_)tthews has a new tingle to excite his leg.

It may be time for a new name for our president. None will probably be as all encompassing or as astute as "Judas 00-Barnum", but new aspects keep popping up. The two I'm juggling around at present are specifically appropriate: " The Student Loan Ranger" or "Mosqued Man" ( as in "who is that Mosqued Man"). If you any suggestions, please list them for consideration.

Online story: "California will spend $250 million on a controversial high-speed rail project, * Governor Jerry (Moonbeam) Brown's controversial high-speed rail project, a $68 billion effort opposed by Republicans, will receive $250 million in funding from the proceeds of the state's cap-and-trade program, under which the state collects a fee after polluters buy and sell their rights to emit carbon into the air." -- Our Mayor Obamalinson is a piker! Shoot, California Governor "Moonbeam" Brown really knows how to waste money. He can easily build 1,000+ $244,000.00 public bathrooms along his high speed rail system.

Online story: "The IRS said it cannot locate many of Lerner's emails prior to 2011 because her computer crashed during the summer of that year." -- Wait a minute... last year, the IRS demanded I show them my last 10 years worth of tax returns or face a huge penalty! Do you think the IRS would have accepted my word that my computer crashed? Hell, no.. Besides, we know that all these files are backed up on R.A.I.D hard drive systems, so gind them.. Now, what really has me PO'd is that if the e-mail files really had been "lost", why wasn't that reported a year ago when the matter came up? Why didn't Lerner say she could prove her innocence if the "dog hadn't eaten her homework"?

---

Oh.. as to the above.. found'em all, and... after re-calculating them and taking deductions I usually don't declare, IRS ended up owing ME.. btw, IRS has not sent my refund checks, yet.. maybe the info was non Lerners' computer...

I've really enjoyed watching the golf at the US Open. Never have played Pinehurst #2, but having grown up on a Donald Ross course, it's easy to see what the players are dealing with. Growing up on a Ross course teaches you 2 basic things: 1- you learn many ways to chip around a green, and 2- you do not knock your approach shot over the green. Getting up & in is virtually impossible.

Hillary must be, no, IS (no matter how Bill defines "is") pathetic. She's hired a ghost writer to put together a book that she could use to get public exposure. Why does she still want, no, need, public adoration. Shouldn't her husband and future grandbaby give her plenty of that?

HuffPost headline: "Jimmy Carter Hits Hillary Clinton, Obama On Foreign Policy" -- Good grief... a kettle truly calling a pot black... how refreshingly novel....

You know, when I was growing up, my parents preached for us kids to look for our blue uniformed police when we felt lost or threatened. We were taught to respect and embrace them. We were taught the policeman, whether on foot or in a police car was our friend. I'm going to have a tough time telling my granddaughter to do the same when she looks for a policeman dressed in black ops clothing and wheeling around in a MRAP anti-IED vehicle.

Possible solution for the problem of unaccompanied children crossing our borders in the future. Let's ship Planned Parenthood to Mexico & Central American countries. One of two things will happen..either the fewer children will be born, or the Latin Americans will take out Planned Parenthood.

One of our fellow BCers made a good analysis of the way Judas 00-Barnum has handled Bowe (hey, isn't 00-Barmnum's dog named, "Bo"?) Tali-Bergd(_*_)hl. 00-Barnumis setting the stage to medically discharge Tali-Bergd(_*_)hl, and put him on monthly disability.

---

We have an insider in Baghdad.. A fellow BCer sent me an update on the current situation as it affects him. Concern is low as to the capability of the Sunni insurgents taking Baghdad. Their number is relatively small, and their supply trail is spread thin. That, and the number of armed security rings (encircling Baghdad and the airport) are formidable. Our guy says the Embassy is coming to him and his office to get intelligence updates, so I think we can feel assured this info is better that what the White House will release..... More updates as I get them.

Online quote site: "“A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.” - William Shakespeare" -- "a friend...gently allows you to grow"? Obviously William Shakespeare would not have been on Judas 00-Barnum's "A-List"

Two of the best ever ads on TV have been run during the US Open.. Nicklaus encouraging golfers to play from appropriate tees, and Palmer asking Eastwood to, more or less, speed it up, are brilliant, and really get their points across.

Online headline/story: "Miss USA Nia Sanchez Stands By 'Self Defense' And 'Martial Arts' As A Way To Prevent Sexual Assault * Nia Sanchez may have taken the coveted Miss USA crown, but she seems to have alienated feminists in the process." -- Hmmm.. Of course she "alienated" feminists.. every woman who enjoys presenting herself in a favorable manner to men alienates feminists! Thank goodness!

Online story: "TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Under a new law, abortions will be illegal in Florida at any point in a woman's pregnancy if her doctor determines that the fetus could survive outside the womb." -- You know, unless there was definitive evidence of pending maternal health/death issues, why would any one think deciding on an abortion after 24+ weeks is an option? I'm not trying to force my opinion to someone else that does, but waiting 2/3rds the way through a pregnancy, then saying, "ooops, I think I'll change my mind" just seems more than a personal morals issue to be worked out with God.

Did you see the speculative salary reportedly being paid Chelsea Clinton-Whomever? $600K is the number... and we wonder... NOT!.. why NBC and it's affiliates/satellite companies fawn over Hillary.

Hmmm, don't you think US Marine Sgt Andrew Tahmooressi is wondering why TaliBergd(_*_)hl is in Texas but he's not?

Online story: "Alison Spann was just 9 when she learned her father, a U.S. Marine turned CIA operative, had become the first American killed in the war in Afghanistan. Thirteen years later, she found out her country had freed the Taliban leader behind his death. * But nothing prepared Alison Spann for news that Mullah Mohammad Fazi, the unquestioned leader of the prisoners at the compound where her father was killed, had been traded along with four cohorts held at Guantanamo Bay for U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergd(_*_)hl> -- Hmmm, it sure is comforting to know your government backs up our soldiers.. We just need to know which soldiers Judas 00-Barnum considers his soldiers.. Once again, "Who is this Mosqued Man"?

---

Spann???? Where have we heard the name "Spann" before? Oh, yes... Jimmy Carter's sister, Ruth Carter Spann.. a sees of some sort...wonder if anyone saw this coming?

Online story: "Four hundred workers at a Philadelphia-area regional rail system went on strike Saturday morning, shutting down 13 train lines that carry commuters to the suburbs and Philadelphia International Airport * Stephen B*****, vice president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen are seeking raises of at least 14.5 percent over five years -- or about 3 percentage points more than SEPTA has offered" -- Just doing a quick research on wages for rail workers (not including engineers) in the Philly area shows the "median" wages are at $44,400.00 and range to $52,500.00. This is not about minimum wages.. this is about unions wanting to piggyback higher wages because of the higher minimum wages being talked about. This is what Judas 00-Barnum has promised to the unions.

L-E headline: "COLUMBUS REGIONAL CEO CHUCK STARK RESIGNS * Stark enacted dramatic changes to hospital names, functions during tenure" -- Hmmm... looks like Columbus Regional has stolen one out of the MCSD Superintendents' playbook.. promise'em anything, then skeedaddle, and let the next guy deal with it.

L-E story: " The Riverfront Splash Pad closed earlier this week after experiencing “some mechanical issues,” Uptown Columbus Inc. President Richard Bishop said. * “There are just a few kinks we have to work out,” he said of the interactive fountain. “We’re just trying to get all the mechanical pieces working right." -- Hmmm..prelude to the $244,000.00 RiverWalk bathroom?

---

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "What Republicans call entitlements are just wage subsidies for people making $7.25 an hour. Real entitlements are the annual $83 billion taxpayers paid to Wall Street bankers making multi-million-dollar salaries." -- Hmmm, tell you what.. I'll bet Wall Street Bankers would quickly swap the $83 Billion amount of what this LIV soundoff-er calls "entitlements" for the total amount of entitlements the government actually gives to the rest of the entitlement class, and our taxes would drop dramatically!

From the "huh?" department - L-E story: "The Historic Linwood Foundation will be offering their Third Saturday Tours through the Linwood Cemetery, June 21. This walking tour is entitled “Linwood Ladies,” and it will feature some interesting women who are buried in Linwood. There will be stories of food, Georgia politics, hospitals, Hollywood and more. - The tour starts at 9:30 a.m. at the Lummus Chapel on the east end of the cemetery and will last until 11:30 a.m. Participants should wear comfortable walking shoes and bring their own water and perhaps an umbrella for the sun. If it’s raining, the tour will be canceled." -- Hey, this is just mentioned because of the in-your-face humor of the situation... if people are encouraged to bring their umbrellas, why will it be canceled because of a little rain?

L-E story: " A convicted armed robber was connected to a carjacking after a stolen vehicle and an abandoned cigarette box were discovered near the scene of a Circle K armed robbery, Columbus police said Friday during a hearing. * D(_*_) W*******, 19, faced hijacking a motor vehicle, armed robbery, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon charges Friday morning in Columbus Recorder’s Court." -- "19"...and already a convicted felon back on the streets with a firearm. No slap on the hand, no out-in-5-10-years sentence is going to salvage this person or any of his ilk. The "possession of a firearm by a convicted felon" should have only two sentence options.. "just" being in "possession" - life without parole; and being in possession of a gun that's been fired should invoke the death sentence. This guy won't be saved, but another person watching what's going on may just be salvageable.

If the NCAA "allows" college players to get paid.. doesn't that open the door for high school players to get agents? Won't that lead middle school parents to hire agents to get their sons into the right high schools? Won't that lead to the elimination of classes as sports prowess will be the only criteria of getting into good schools? Will school systems create Sports Magnet Schools? Good grief.. this is gonna get out of hand quickly!
