If you could save your family from death by “threatening” a known terrorist with death, would you?

If you could save your neighbor’s family from death by “threatening” a known terrorist with the death of his family, would you?

If you could save one Americans life by stripping a terrorist naked and putting a hood on him, would you?

If you answer “no” to any of the above you have serious problems prioritizing, are confused, or are being serious misled by some ethics or philosophy class you attended.

This will help our enemies says NBC.

Not really. At least not in the way they mean in this statement. Since our enemy does the same and worse they can’t accuse us of being “bad.” But it does help them to know, if captured, nothing much will happen to them. As for our allies, they are laughing their asses off at the utter stupidity of the American government and the sheep they are leading around

President O. and his spokespeople continue to say they want to look forward but, if the Attorney General wants to investigate, it is up to him.

Right.

Take the people’s thoughts off the real issues. Sacrifice a few CIA officers and contractors. Weaken America’s already weak intelligence gathering capability. And when the next attack comes, if we survive, shift the blame to a few more CIA officers.

Duh! I hope no one is really surprised by this.

WASHINGTON – The federal government faces exploding deficits and mounting debt over the next decade, White House and congressional budget officials projected Tuesday in competing but similar economic forecasts.

And keep in mind this is without health care or any other surprises like more money for GM, AIG and the like.

If I was curious, why can’t I see or find out . . .

• Punahou School
  Though from a modest background, Obama attended Punahou School in Honolulu, one of Hawaii’s top private institutions. Who paid for this?
• Occidental College
  Obama attended Occidental College. Obama attended the school on a scholarship. What kind of scholarship? Financial records have not been released.
• Columbia University
  Obama transferred from Occidental College to Columbia University in 1981, at the age of 20. Who paid for this? OBTW, although Obama claimed to be a part of the Black Student Organization and anti-apartheid activities, the New York Times reports, several well-known student leaders did not recall his involvement. Fox News contacted400 of Obama’s classmates. No one remembered him. Guess he spent a lot of time in the library. Before applying to Harvard, Obama is said to have written a major thesis in his senior year. It has not been released.
• Harvard Law School
  No information on grades, schedules or who paid for this.
• Harvard Law Review
  In 1990, Obama became the first black president of the Harvard Law Review, where he spent at least 50 hours a week editing submissions from judges, scholars and authors. A search of the HeinOnline database of law journals turns up exactly nothing credited to Obama in any law review.
• University of Chicago
  Obama lectured at the University of Chicago Law School, a top school where the faculty is known for voluminous scholarly publishing, from 1992 until 2004. No scholarly articles can be found that were authored by him.

Also unavailable:

• Passport
• Medical records
  Obama refused to release medical records. Instead, he simply provided a six-paragraph note from his physician briefly summarizing 21 years of doctor visits and health information. The letter contained no supporting documentation.
• Illinois state senator
  Complete files and schedules of his years as an Illinois state senator from 1997 to 2004 are not accessible.
• Client list
  Obama’s client list from during his time in private practice with the Chicago law firm of Davis, Miner, Barnhill and Gallard is sealed. 
• Illinois State Bar Association records are sealed. 
• Obama/Dunham marriage license is unavailable. 
• Obama/Dunham divorce documents are unavailable.
• Adoption records are unavailable.
• Birth certificate
  While a certificate of life birth has been presented, in Hawaii,  it is not the same as a birth certificate which continues to be unavailable.

It  just seems strange that so much money has been spent denining access to the records of a public servant.
