Resolution to rebuke President Obama for Bergdahl/Taliban swap

http://twitter.com/#!/ChadPergram/status/508991070936776704

The House Rules Committee met today to prepare a resolution that would rebuke President Obama for arranging the prisoner swap of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl for five Taliban prisoners. A vote on the resolution may take place as early as Tuesday.

The Hill reports:

The administration is required by law to notify Congress at least 30 days ahead of time before transferring prisoners housed at the Guantánamo Bay detention facility. President Obama said after the transfer took place that giving Congress a heads-up could have jeopardized the deal with the Taliban to free the American prisoner of war.

The resolution expresses “grave concern” that releasing the five senior Taliban commanders raised national security risks.

Additionally, it argues that the exchange harmed the administration’s working relationships with the legislative branch, stating that “these actions have burdened unnecessarily the trust and confidence in the commitment and ability of the Obama administration to constructively engage and work with Congress.”

Reality bites back: With Joan Walsh’s help, the Left is hoisted on its own homophobic petard

http://twitter.com/#!/NathanWurtzel/status/195589202166026241

Well, well. It’s okay for someone on the Left to make a joke about people of the same sex marrying, but it’s not okay for a woman on the right to do so? Got it.

Hey people at #CrowleyJokes, how was Monica's joke much different than this? https://t.co/9Anr3ubA #hmmmm?

— RB (@RBPundit) April 26, 2012

Hmm. Curious, indeed!

The Left was once again caught spewing bile at a conservative woman when they took to Twitter to attack Fox News’ Monica Crowley for a joke she made about Sandra Fluke. Enter frantic back-pedaling and plausible deniability pushing. The ever-repugnant Salon editor Joan Walsh tries valiantly.

Note to the right: If you're not a homophobe, suggesting two men might marry isn't a gay joke. I know, I know, it's confusing.

— Joan Walsh (@joanwalsh) April 26, 2012

See? She can do it because she’s all inclusive and stuff. She’s a liberal! They are allowed to be homophobes and sexists and racists. And Monica must be a H8R. Because, Republican.

And what about Al Sharpton? “Punk faggot” is okay, evidently, if Al “blood on his hands” Sharpton says it.

Crowley once called an audience member a "punk faggot", too. http://t.co/7hJhT6yF #CrowleyJokes

— RB (@RBPundit) April 26, 2012

This doesn’t pass the homophobic smell test, Joan. Those who are saying that Monica Crowley used a “slur” as an excuse to spew their hate at her are the ones who are truly homophobic. Because, it’s only a slur if one considers being gay an insult. Hate much, Left?

Twitter agrees.

Those attacking @MonicaCrowley are probably the same ones who "insulted" @AndrewBreitbart by calling him gay. (It's not an insult, kids.)

@red_red_head If liberals don't attack you for being a homophobe, they'll attack you for being a homosexual. #ludicrous

— jon gabriel (@exjon) April 26, 2012

Also sexist. Like the time President Obama felt the need to telephone Sandra Fluke to soothe her boo-boo feelings. The only thing he left out was a pat on the head.

Note: If you think women, gays, [fill in the blank], need to be treated like Fabergé eggs, you have an insultingly low opinion of them.

— jon gabriel (@exjon) April 26, 2012

Another false narrative debunked. Thank you, happy warriors!

It's seems I've killed the #CrowleyJokes hashtag by pointing out Joan Walsh's tweet and Al Sharpton's past comments. OH WELL!

Nothing to see here! MSM silent after Ala. Dem calls Clarence Thomas ‘Uncle Tom’

http://twitter.com/#!/redsteeze/status/433686333161484288

Dude. Dude:

http://twitter.com/#!/DD_MarySell/status/433368741066194944

That happened yesterday in Alabama.

http://twitter.com/#!/DD_MarySell/status/433370531711045633

OK, maybe we’re jumping the gun a little. Let’s give Holmes a chance to clarify his remarks:

http://twitter.com/#!/TLockette_Star/status/433376144625131520

Oh.

http://twitter.com/#!/TLockette_Star/status/433380197807570944

Yeah, that really doesn’t make him look any better.

http://twitter.com/#!/TheDaleJackson/status/433692126359330816

So, for those keeping score at home, a Democratic politician admitted to making up crap and smearing Justice Clarence Thomas as an Uncle Tom.

That seems pretty newsworthy to us. Wouldn’t you agree?

Damned racist repub… Wait, what? MT @tahDeetz: Southern democrats railing against interracial marriage.

Exactly.

So why didn’t we hear about it right after it happened? Didn’t the MSM think it was worth covering?

This one certainly wasn’t thoroughly vetted — by the public or the mainstream media.

The Sirtfood Diet

Discover the original international diet sensation—used by Adele, heavyweight champion David Haye, and Pippa Middleton—that will help you lose seven pounds in seven days while experiencing lasting energy and eating all the foods you love. Over the past few years, fasting has become a popular diet option. Studies show that fasting—whether through moderate calorie restriction every day or the more severe but less frequent intermittent fasting—can help people lose about thirteen to fourteen pounds in six months and reduce their risk of developing disease. When we fast, our body’s energy stores activate what is known as sirtuins, or the “skinny gene,” and many positive changes ensue. Fat storage is switched off, and our body stops its normal growth processes and goes into “survival” mode. Fat burning is stimulated and the genes involved in the repair and rejuvenation of our cells are turned on—which all results to weight loss and improved resistance to disease. But if not done correctly, fasting can lead to hunger, irritability, fatigue, and loss of muscle. Enter Sirtfoods: a newly discovered group of foods that is revolutionizing healthy eating. Ranging from chocolate and red wine to garlic and walnuts, sirtfoods are particularly rich in special nutrients that help us activate the same skinny genes in our bodies that fasting triggers. Nutritionists Aidan Goggins and Glen Matten have created The Sirtfood Diet to help you effectively lose weight and improve your resistance to disease, while still giving you incredible energy and glowing health.
