Online story: ""Hamas is responsible and Hamas will pay," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed, referring to the Islamic militant group that Israel has accused of carrying out the kidnappings. * The teenagers "were kidnapped and murdered in cold blood by human animals," the Israeli leader said as he convened an emergency meeting of his Security Cabinet. *The three-hour session ended after midnight without any decisions, and officials were expected to resume deliberations on Tuesday. * Early Tuesday, Israel carried out an especially intense series of airstrikes in Gaza, saying it had struck 34 targets across the Hamas-controlled territory." -- "human animals"! Hey Mosqued Man... do you hear..see.. that! Oh, BTW, this is how you respond when "human animals" cross the line you've drawn,

The Man of Steal says the reason not enough is done about stopping illegal aliens is that the laws are vague and hard to read/understand. Huh? What doesn't he understand about illegally crossing the border being a criminal act?
---
So the Mosqued Man wants to send more of our agents to the border that are now stationed elsewhere. Hmmm for what you ask... for more guards to stop the inflow? Nah.. just to make it easier for minor border crossers to find someone to turn themselves in. And the billions the Man of Steal includes.. for more security you might think, or at least hope for? Nah.. for more comfort for the facilities where the minors are kept until their parents can be located and called to come pick them up... Good grief!

I think I've figured out how the Mosqued Man will use his pen to carry out his immigration reform...he'll use it to draw a "linea roja" at the Mexican border.

Online headline/story: "NYT: Scientists 'Startled' at Great Lakes' Rise; Another Warmist Prediction Is Biting the Dust * Creeping Up on Unsuspecting Shores: The Great Lakes, in a Welcome Turnaround
... after reaching historic lows in 2013, water levels in the Great Lakes are now abruptly on the rise, a development that has startled scientists and thrilled just about everybody with a stake in the waterfront, including owners of beach houses, retailers in tourist areas and dockmasters who run marinas on the lakeshore. * Lakes Michigan, Huron and Superior are at least a foot higher than they were a year ago, and are expected to rise three more inches over the next month. Lake Ontario and Lake Erie are seven to nine inches higher than a year ago.... Scientists say the reversal of fortunes for the lakes is partly a result of the most bone-chilling winter in memory for many Midwesterners. The thick and long-lasting ice cover on the lakes kept the water colder and slowed evaporation. Heavy snowfall and a rainy spring allowed the lakes to make even more gains. * “We’ve had a rebound that we haven’t seen in many, many years,” said Gene Clark, a coastal engineer with the University of Wisconsin Sea Grant Institute in Superior, Wis. * “We’ve been historically below average, and now we are finally back to above-average water levels. At this time last year, I was talking to Wisconsin state legislators about what was happening, why the levels were so low and what could the State of Wisconsin do about it. It was very much a crisis.” * what has occurred demonstrates that it wasn't a crisis. It was part of natural cycles over which man has no meaningful influence or control." -- "no man has meaningful influence or control"? Betcha Algore hasn't slept well recently..

Found another interesting tidbit by accident.. In 2012, NOAA declared July was the hottest month since 1895. Hidden in that was that the second highest was July 1936. Hmmm.. interesting .. you know,, the two hottest months recorded both happened in the same month of the 4th year of the first term of the two most socialist presidents our country has ever had.
---
You know....our economy is getting a shot in the arm today. Thousands of workers in union houses will be optioning out of union dues being deducted from their paychecks. America is having another revolution from an oppressing entity.
---
Online headline: "Obama Orders More Troops To Iraq" -- Hmm, does this mean that the Mosqued Man is adding Baghdad Bob to his White House Press Agent team?
---
HuffPost "headlie": 'Supreme Court Delivers Blow To Birth Control Coverage" -- Hmmm.. and exactly what did the Supreme Court say/do that prohibits women from going to a drug store and purchasing the birth control method of their (or their doctors' choice)?
---
HuffPost headline: "Obama Announces Plans For New Executive Action" -- Yeah.. right. What's "new", and what's "action"?
---
HuffPost headline: "Ruth Bader Ginsburg Writes Scathing 35-Page Dissent In Birth Control Case" -- Hmmm, wish her mother could have read this......
---
From above story: "The burden of paying out of pocket for contraception has now unfairly shifted to women whose bosses' religious beliefs conflict with their own, Ginsburg said. An intrauterine device, a very reliable form of long-term contraception that is implanted into the uterus, is particularly expensive for women to have to pay for out of pocket. * "It bears note in this regard that the cost of an IUD is nearly equivalent to a month's full-time pay for workers earning the minimum wage," she wrote." -- Good grief.. and the cost of abstinence is "zero", but what gets me is that there are different cost levels for other forms of birth control. Using Ginsburg's "unreasoning", then car dealers/manufacturers also are waging a war on women.. a Cadillac cost more than a Toyota, so why aren't employers responsible for providing women workers wages that let them buy a Cadillac?
---
L-E headline: "COURT: RELIGIOUS RIGHTS TRUMP BIRTH CONTROL RULE * Obama administration must find other ways of providing free contraceptive coverage at companies with religious objections, such as Hobby Lobby" -- "Obama administration must find other ways of providing free contraceptive coverage"? Hey.. abstinence is free and VERY effective.. but why is it the Mosgued Man's duty to find ways "of providing free contraceptive coverage" in the first place? Maybe we'd be better off if his mother had read Ginsburg's dissent, too.
---
Online headline: "GM Recalls Another 8.2 Million Vehicles" -- What's that... 20+ Million vehicles recalled this year and June is not even over. You know, if OObamaCRAP had been in effect in 2009, the "death panel" would have stopped the 'GM bailout" under the "do not resuscitate " provision..
---
HuffPost "headlie": "Confidence In Supreme Court Hits Record Low" -- How about qualifying this "as among liberals".
---
HuffPost story: "The nation's top intelligence agency revealed in a letter made public Monday that the NSA, CIA and FBI are engaging in a large number of warrantless searches of the content of Americans' communications caught up in collection on foreign targets." -- Well, under the "rules of engagement" supported by the Man of Steal, no one is going to get fired nor prosecuted.. so why follow the rules?
---
LIV's L-E "soundoff": "Ledger-Enquirer: Local man shoots two men while confronting his ex-girlfriend. The gun lobby says to protect ourselves from people like this man, we need to make it easier for him to have access to guns." -- Hmm, besides not knowing whether the "local man" was in legal possession of such, we do know that he will be on the "no legal purchase" list in the future. Of course, if the DA and jury, and Judge do their duties diligently, the "local man" shouldn't see daylight again to acquire another gun.
---
LIV's L-E "soundoff": " I despise conservatives. I hate their destruction of the environment, their passion for war and torture, their avarice, their anti-everything and everybody philosophy and much more." -- Shut of this guys supply of Kool Aid! Why is it that the 'entitlement generation' hasn't caught on that without successful business people, the government would not have a dime to send them each month, and no other country would/could extend the Mosqued Man's credit.
---
L-E story: " Interest rates go up Tuesday for students taking out new federal loans. This hike is relatively minimal but could foreshadow more increases to come. * Interest rates go from 3.86 to 4.66 percent on undergraduate Stafford loans. Graduate student loans go from 5.41 percent to 6.21 percent. ( Interest rates on Plus loans for parents go from 6.41 percent to 7.21 percent" -- Hmmm I guess we can expect the Student Loan Ranger to make a Clintonesque plea for forgiveness for trying his best to give students a loan-cut, but just couldn't find a way, so he'll give them and increase instead.
---
L-E editorial comment: "Maybe the supporters of Georgia's new firearms law, the ones who resented it being called the "Guns Everywhere" bill, were right. It's not necessarily going to result in guns everywhere. It's just going to result in more taxpayer expense to keep guns from showing up everywhere" -- Hmmm...the only expense at the Citizen's Service Center is because Mayor Obamalinson ordered it. There is no need for every citizen doing non-Council business at the CSC to be inconvenienced, and also imperiled by having to walk to-and-from the CSC without a legally carried weapon they might need to defend themselves from an armed parking lot predator.

L-E headline: "COLUMBUS FIRE & EMS * FUTRELL TO HEAD HOMELAND SECURITY COUNCIL * New 100-person body will bring city in line with federal, state structures" -- "100-person body will bring city in line with federal, state structures"? Good grief! Can you imagine a 100 person committee being appointed to draw a horse? We'll get a 10-humped, two headed, 8-legged camel! and just supplying "free beverages/snacks" will cause meeting expenses to have its own line in our already overspent budget. WoW! I don't even know of a major world-wide corporation with that many members...

Instant replay - L-E headline: "COLUMBUS FIRE & EMS * FUTRELL TO HEAD HOMELAND SECURITY COUNCIL * New 100-person body will bring city in line with federal, state structures" -- Can you imagine the taxpayer expense if this committee holds an out-of-town weekend retreat?
