Three and a half days sitting in one of these…
Gives a WHOLE new meaning to butt hurt… Just sayin…
First cat launch of a UAV from a carrier…
X-47 prototype was successfully launched from the USS GEORGE H W BUSH off Chesapeake yesterday.
The X-47 flew for about an hour and made a number of practice approaches to the ship before returning to Pax River and taking the wire there.
Hellva long way from hand launching UAVs off the back deck of a ship and recovering them in a net… Just sayin…
Well, the putsch has started, the first body just got thrown over the wall to appease the proles…
Obama said Lew asked for the resignation and Miller agreed, after being on the job since November 2012.
“Americans have a right to be angry about it, and I’m angry about it,” Obama said from the White House.

My question- Who is NEXT?
Reading the WAPO online and ran across THIS…
One of the scariest parts…
The targeting of conservative groups started around March of 2010, according to the audit documents. But Lerner, a Democrat, “instructed that the criteria be immediately revised” after a briefing on the matter in late June of 2011The IRS adopted a more generic set of standards the next month, but it changed the criteria again in January 2012, deciding to look at “political action type organizations involved in limiting/expanding Government, educating on the Constitution and Bill of Rights, social economic reform movement,” according to the audit documents.
BOLD is mine…
In the article, there is a timeline. this wasnt done over a few months, it was a year or more. How many more times and reasons do we need to see that the true intent of the current administration and certain supporters is gradually beginning to rise to the top. Destruction of our American way of life, abolishment of the Constitution of the US, and rebuilding the Government to accommodate a Socialist style Government. Only the current concerned American citizens and conscientious politicians can put a screeching halt to the erosion that is taking place.
To tell you the truth, this is only a surprise to people who weren’t paying attention.
It’s only a matter of time until it gets buried by the progressive/sympathetic media. There was another article on Washington Post saying, “yes, it’s bad that the IRS was doing this, but they had what they thought was a good reason…”
This is no “mistake”, any more than it was a “mistake” for DHS and state/local law enforcement to be told to suspect people who talk about the “Constitution” of being domestic terrorists. These people know what they are doing… They just think that they can absorb the consequences of all of these actions through attrition. Just like we saw Hillary take the fall for Benghazi, someone else in the layers of government will admit responsibility for this one and step down, but this is just one of the times they got “caught”. All of the others went under our radar…
They drove tanks down the streets of Boston and barged into people’s houses looking for a couple of kids…why isn’t there more outrage about that??
The domestic news sounds more like something out of a third world dictatorship every day…
That whole the Russians are our ‘friends’ thingie…
Well, not so much…
Russia’s Mediterranean task force will comprise 5-6 warships and may be enlarged to include nuclear submarines, Navy Commander Adm. Viktor Chirkov said on Sunday.
“Overall, already from this year, we plan to have 5-6 warships and support vessels [in the Mediterranean Sea], which will be replaced on a rotating basis from each of the fleets – the Black Sea, Baltic, Northern and, in some cases, even the Pacific Fleet. Depending on the scope of assignments and their complexity, the number of warships in the task force may be increased,” Chirkov told RIA Novosti.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu earlier said a decision to deploy a permanent task force in the Mediterranean to defend Russia’s interests in the area had been made.
The Russian navy commander also said nuclear submarines could be deployed in the Mediterranean, if necessary.

Right now we have 1-2 ships and a couple of P-3’s as the TOTAL 6th Fleet force…
And the Brits will be no help, they’ve dumped all their aircraft ASW capability, ditto for the Dutch, and the Navy is ‘moving’ assets to the Pacific Fleet due to the issues out there… And we continue to reduce the numbers of ships, subs and acft in the inventory, along with significant loss of personnel…
I’m guessing the administration is probably going to cede control of the Med to the Russians, since a lot of the force is being moved to the Pacific to counter Chinese expansionist rhetoric… sigh…
A follow-up to it’s one of those weeks…

I know many of you (like me) are looking forward to football season. Well, here’s a recap from last year to whet your appetite…
And I can’t help but wonder if this is coincidence!
Alabama beat Arkansas, and Arkansas fired the coach…
Alabama beat Tennessee, and Tennessee fired the coach…
Alabama beat Auburn, and Auburn fired the coach…
Then Alabama beat Notre Dame and the Pope retired…
Damn, I wish the White House had a team. If they did, I think their first game should be Alabama. Just sayin…
The worst thing that can happen to an agenda on a roll is for real research to come out that contradicts the emotion of the agenda and shines the light of reality on the agenda…
That is what the latest Pew Report does for homicide rates-
Oopsie..
Now go ask the random person on the street if they know this…
Bet they don’t, because the MSM is NOT willing to cover this and upset the gun control agenda being spawned by the administration, Joe Biteme, and Bloomie…
Does this make you wonder about who’s side the media is on? “I” for one am confident they are NOT on our side. And we all hear rumors about the ‘censorship’ coming to the Intarwebz… What if information gets treated like the Liberator files???
Will there still be a signal???
It appears some folks were/are less than happy with Duck Dynasty about both the use of guns on the show, and references to God during the show (like prayers at meals)…
Phil Robertson laid it on the line…

Good for them, and it’s about damn time ‘somebody’ stood up to the whiners/complainers and was not willing to compromise their integrity…
