Federal judge is getting more than angry. Bad news for Lerner and the IRS cover-up.
How many times have I written that "we are winning?" Here is an article from Newsweek touting the immediate future for American Exceptionalism and its inclusion in our new school textbooks . . . . . . while the guy who hates the concept is still President !!!
The company behind Advanced Placement
courses for U.S. high school students will release a revision to the
standards for AP U.S. history on Thursday morning, after significant
pushback from conservatives who claimed the redesigned course framework,
released last year, painted American history in too negative a light.
The revised framework will be effective immediately, and doesn’t require a change in any textbooks, according to the College Board. High school classes in many parts of the country begin in three weeks. Teachers Newsweek spoke with say that AP tests are typically written a year in advance, and said they expected the test will be reviewed in light of the changes. According to College Board, however, the test has not yet been written.

Never heard of Carmille? Me neither - but I suspect she will become more familiar to you over the coming months.
A well respected "contrarian" feminist and lesbian author, Carmille Paglia, is not overly impressed with Hillary. You may enjoy her comment/analysis on Hillary, below:
Paglia (on Hillary):
"If you don’t have an effective public persona, if you’re not a good speaker, if you don’t like to press the flesh, if you’re not nimble enough to deal with anything that comes along, then you are not a natural politician! And you sure aren’t going to learn it in your late 60s! Get off the stage, and let someone else truly electable on! All this silly talk about how wonderful Hillary is in private. Oh, sure, she’s nice to the important people and the people she wants or needs something from! Then she’s Pollyanna herself! There are just too many reports stretching all the way back to Arkansas about Hillary’s nasty outbursts toward underlings when things aren’t going well. The main point is that the ability to communicate with millions of people is a special talent, and Hillary pretty obviously lacks it."

Who is she?
Wikipedia has a good write-up. I do not know this woman, but this past week, I have noticed that she is in the news, often. She appears to be well received in the liberal ranks, but is, herself, very much an independent, "contrarian libertarian." You will like much of what she says, and a disagree on a number of issues. She is clearly not impressed with Hillary. ~ editor
From Wikipedia:
Camille Anna Paglia (/ˈpɑːliə/; born April 2, 1947) is an American academic and social critic. Paglia, a self-described dissident feminist,[1] has been a professor at the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, since 1984.[2] The New York Times has described her as "first and foremost an educator".[3]
She is the author of Sexual Personae: Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson (1990) and a collection of essays, Sex, Art, and American Culture (1992). Her other books and essays include an analysis of Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, and Break, Blow, Burn (2005) on poetry. Her most recent book is Glittering Images (2012). She is a critic of American feminism and of post-structuralist theory as well as a commentator on multiple aspects of U.S. social culture such as its visual art, music, and film history.
Paglia is known for her critical views of many aspects of modern culture, including feminism and liberalism.[4][5] She has been characterized variously as a "contrarian academic" and a feminist "bête noire,"[6][7] a "witty controversialist,"[8] and a maverick,[9] Margaret Wente has called Paglia "a writer in a category of her own... a feminist who hates affirmative action; an atheist who respects religion" and "a Democrat who thinks her party doesn't get it."[10] Martha Duffy writes that Paglia "advocates a core curriculum based mostly on the classics" and rails against "chic French theorists Michel Foucault and Jacques Lacan," and "has a strong libertarian streak — on subjects like pornography — that go straight to her '60s coming-of-age."[6] Elaine Showalter has called Paglia a "radical libertarian," noting her socially liberal stands on abortion, sodomy, prostitution, drug use, and suicide. Paglia has denounced feminist academics and women's studies, celebrated popular culture and Madonna, and become a media celebrity, writing op-eds and gossip columns, appearing on television and telling her story to journalists.[11]
Paglia has said that she is willing to have her entire career judged on the basis of her composition of what she considers to be "probably the most important sentence that she has ever written": "God is man's greatest idea."[12]
Hillary, Champion of the Middle Class (???), wears $2000 ensembles and spends $600 for a hair cut.
FreeBeacon: Hillary Clinton recently received a haircut priced at
$600 from a stylist at the John Barrett Salon inside of Bergdorf Goodman
in New York City.
Here is what I know about the coming 2016 elections:
If the Dems cannot win back the Senate and loose the WH, the criticism of Obama will be deafening. He can claim all the crap he wants, as "legacy." What will not be debatable, as legacy, however, is the after-election thinking of Dems should they lose another election, this time, the national election.
Here is a brief history of the last three elections:
2010 mid-terms: landslide for Congressional Republicans.
2012 presidential elections: Obama wins but with 3.5 million fewer votes than in 2008. Romney garnered a million more votes than McCain, btw. Keep in mind that GW Bush, in his re-election, took in 12 million more votes than in 2000 . . . . . again, Obama lost 3.4 million votes. If you are a Democrat, you have to be worried or brain-dead.
2014 mid-terms: one of the most one-sided midterms in American history, leaving the Dems in their weakest state since 1928.
And all of this while the GOP has historically bad polling numbers.
I say, if Obama continues to run his mouth (and he can't help himself on that), continues to force his agenda on the American people, and injects himself into the coming election cycle, the 2016 elections could further decimate the Democrat Party.
Did she really say this?
She is talking about after the 2012 elections. Did she really say this? Good grief, all you have to do is look at Obama's actions and total disregard for Congress and you know that Jarrett frames what post-2012 Obama is all about. Good for Obama. Hell to pay for Hillary.
Trump as President? Would not be the end of the world. I mean, he would be replacing Mr. One World Obama.
Editor's notes: The GOP field does not like Trump simply and profoundly because he has gone to the Temple, and upset the tables of all the money changers. Will he survive the debates? Don't know, but if he looks good in the debates, I have to believe that he just might be the last man standing when it comes to election day, 2016. Hillary cannot beat this guy without a massive, Obama scale, turnout . . . . . . something that looks rather bleak, right now (talking about turn out). I mean, when Bernie Sanders is kicking her butt in terms of turn out, you know the woman is in trouble.
Trump's lead GROWS over Jeb and other Republican rivals as he captures 25 per cent in new Reuters poll – just in time to leave the US for golf tournament in Scotland
- Trump picked up nearly 10 points in the national poll of Republican voters since Friday
- He's risen to 25 per cent support, with Jeb Bush in a distant second place at 12 per cent
- Trump is leaving the U.S. Wednesday night for Scotland, where his Trump Turnberry Resort will host the Women's British Open golf tourney
- Trump flies to Glasgow Prestwick Airport aboard his private Boeing 757 and returns on Saturday
- Separate poll released earlier Wednesday shows Trump leading in Florida, where Jeb Bush was governor
B Obama, with absolutely no military service, background or education, chose to ignore his generals . . . . . again.
AYOTTE: “Just to be clear, when you came before the committee then you said under no circumstances should we relieve pressure on Iran on those issues. So was it your military recommendation that we not agree to lifting of those sanctions?”
GENERAL DEMPSEY: “Yes. And I used the phrase “As long as possible.” And then that was the point at which the negotiation continued. But, yes, that was my military advice.”
Proof that merry-ju-wanna actually kills brain cells . . . . conclusive and undeniable.
Cosby: 35 accusers with no one taking back their claim for criminal rape. Trump: 1 "accuser" who made it clear, at the time (18 years ago) that she was not talking about "criminal rape," and later denied that it was rape at all, that she (Trump's first wife) and Donald are good friends and have been partners in the raiser of their children. In other words, the Rolling Stoned article is nothing but a piece of white-trash journalism that should have never seen the light of day. BUT, since the mentally impaired, drug infested, losers on the Left have nothing to say on the issues, they feel the need to run their mouths, 24/7, decade after decade, with lies and innuendos. Of course, they cry like babies when anyone dares to fight fire with fire.
