Salon Attacks Military, White People, American Culture On Eve Of Veterans Day…Update: Let’s Look At Who Salon Does Call ‘Hero’
Put a man in uniform, preferably a white man, give him a gun, and Americans will worship him. It is a particularly childish trait, of a childlike culture, that insists on anointing all active military members and police officers as “heroes.” The rhetorical sloppiness and intellectual shallowness of affixing such a reverent label to everyone in the military or law enforcement betrays a frightening cultural streak of nationalism, chauvinism, authoritarianism and totalitarianism, but it also makes honest and serious conversations necessary for the maintenance and enhancement of a fragile democracy nearly impossible.

ABC: GOP Must Take Risk And Confront Their Base
Appearing on ABC’s This Week w/ George Stephanopoulos on Sunday, Mark Halperin co-host of With All Due Respect on Bloomberg, pressed the GOP to take “take some risks” after winning control of the Senate during this year’s midterm elections.
Speaking during a panel discussion, Halperin argued that the GOP runs the risk “standing up to the Tea Party caucus and talk radio” but that they must take risks “if they want to do what’s good for their politics and good for the country.”
Translation:abandon your base yet again and capitulate to the party and the tyrant you just thrashed.This is going to go on as long as they have the majority.

Obama Thinks He Lost Because He Didn’t Have the Right Message
Obama told Bob Schieffer he lost the midterm because he did not have the right message.
“I think the one thing that I do need to constantly remind myself and my team of, it’s not enough just to build the better mousetrap. People don’t automatically come beating to your door. We gotta sell it. We gotta reach out to the other side and where possible persuade.”
For the record, Obama reached out to Republican leader Mitch McConnell exactly twice in the last six years.
Obama still doesn’t get it.
It’s your policies that stink, not your message.

Valerie Jarrett To Obama During 2012 Campaign. “I Don’t Understand How You’re Not Getting 85% of The Vote”…
She’s like the disciple Val to her Chicago Jesus
Jarrett holds a key vote on Cabinet picks (she opposed Larry Summers at Treasury and was among the first Obama aides to come around on Hillary Clinton at State) and has an outsize say on ambassadorships and judgeships. She helps determine who gets invited to the First Lady’s Box for the State of the Union, who attends state dinners and bill-signing ceremonies, and who sits where at any of the above. She has placed friends and former employees in important positions across the administration—“you can be my person over there,” is a common refrain.

MINNEAPOLIS SCHOOL DISTRICT NOW NEEDS ‘PERMISSION’ TO SUSPEND ANY BLACK, HISPANIC STUDENT
The Minneapolis public school system announced a major new district-wide policy for disciplining students: any suspension of a non-white student requires the district superintendent’s approval.
The MPS has been stung by reports that students of color are 10 times more likely to receive a suspension than white students. The Minneapolis school system has an enrollment of over 32,000 students. Seventy percent are non-white.
School superintendent Bernadeia Johnson, a black woman, maintains that she wants to “disrupt” the current suspension trends.
What are they supposed to do?Suspend well-behaved white students because the blacks are savages?
They might as well announce you can do whatever you want to whoever you want as long as you ain’t white.

Obamacare Architect: Yeah, We Lied to The “Stupid” American People to Get It Passed
You can’t do it political, you just literally cannot do it. Transparent financing and also transparent spending. I mean, this bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes the bill dies. Okay? So it’s written to do that,” Gruber said. “In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in, you made explicit healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage.
A few points. 1. Notice how lying to the American people is completely justified by Obama administration standards so long as the ends justify the means. Gruber would “rather have this law than not,” and therefore purposely lying about what the law actually is in order to get it passed is completely acceptable. regardless of the negative effects it has on the lives of Americans. 2. Lack of transparency might be a huge political advantage in the short term, but long term there are consequences from voters, which is exactly what we saw last week during the Democrat blood bath at every level of government across the country. 3. Insulting Americans as stupid and deceiving them is a really good way to lose your power on Capitol Hill, which is again exactly what we saw last week in the 2014 midterms. Twenty-eight Senators who voted for Obamacare are now out of the Senate for one reason or another.

How Dems’ plans to play Hispanic card crashed and burned in New Mexico
When national Democrats surveyed the country for vulnerable GOP House seats to pour money into to pick up, incumbent Steve Pearce’s seat in the Second District, with a majority of registered Democrats and a large and growing Hispanic population, seemed an obvious choice. An attractive, female, Hispanic candidate, Roxanne (“Rocky”) Lara, a lawyer and the first Hispanic president of the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce, seemed ideal. Michael Coleman of the Albuquerque Journal (hat tip: Instapundit) writes an excellent analysis of how those plans crashed and burned, yielding a stunning 30-point margin of victory for the white guy, 65% to 35%.

Here’s a local color item with national repercussions.
The American Bald Eagle has been taken off the endangered species list, in large part thanks to the efforts of the Sutton Avian Research Center. They’re just a couple of miles down the road from our place. We increasingly frequently see these grand birds, soaring majestically. Other eagles, also, screech around, joining some other great birds that we’ve always had, like the amazing Blue Herons. ‘Twas not so when we left for Chicago in 1980. Sutton began about five years before we moved back, in 1994.
(I do worry about how tasty our little kitties might look to the big predators. We think maybe one of our cats had a close encounter with an owl a while back, or some other predator bird, because they go for the tail. I hope the owl learned a lesson from tough kitty Spark. An eagle can carry off a small sheep, but I don’t think the local cattlemen have to worry.)
