O Skipped Intel Briefings Before Embassy Attacks

Reader Tom C notes that it appears President Obama skipped intelligence briefings the week before the embassy attacks in Libya and Egypt and the murder of U.S. Libyan Ambassador Chris Stevens and three American staff members.

Hey, he has to prep for Letterman and get his golf game down.

Tidbit Of The Day

72 percent of social network users are under the age of 44, according to emarketer.com.

Now, some might look at that and think it’s to be expected as social networking is for the hip and young, and old people fear technology.
They would be wrong. The skew is not that much as 66 percent of Americans are under the age of 44.

Bibi’s B-I-L On Barack

So what is President Incompetent going to do with Libya and Egypt now that the Libyans have killed our ambassador and the Egyptians have torn down a flag at our embassy?

Probably blame Israel. He is, after all, refusing to meet with Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu as it may conflict with an appearance on David Letterman.
Here is what Dr. Hagi Ben-Artzi, a lecturer on Jewish History and Jewish Philosophy at Bar Ilan University, has said about Obama:
Unfortunately, there is an anti-Semitic president in America. As a politician who ran for president, he had to hide it, but from time to time, it bursts out from inside. It’s creating a difficult situation for Israel, but we won’t even consider giving up on our deep interests.
For 20 years he sat with the preacher Jeremiah Wright, who is anti-Semitic, anti-Jewish and anti-Israeli. When an anti-Semitic president comes to power in America, it is our test . . .
Ben-Artzi is Netanyahu’s brother in law.

So When Is ‘The Irishman’ Coming Out?

Frank Sheeran and Jimmy Hoffa The Irishman
Jimmy Hoffa and Frank Sheeran

A movie starring Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and directed by Martin Scorsese would be getting a bit of hype don’t you think?

The Irishman based on “I Heard You Paint Houses”, Charles Brandt’s biography of Philly hitman and union organizer Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran, has been in the works since 2010 and is allegedly slated to be released this year.
So where is the buzz?
One rumor is that it is on ice until after the election as Sheeran takes credit for Joe Biden’s Senate career.
Important parts of Brandt’s book take place in Delaware County. Sheeran attended Blessed Virgin Mary parochial school in Darby and Darby High School. He says he caddied at Paxon Hollow Country Club albeit it would not have been Paxon Hollow at the time. He makes his last confession at Saint Dorothy’s Church in Drexel Hill albeit he incorrectly identifies it as being in Springfield.
Besides Biden’s election, other ill deeds for which Sheeran accepts blame are the murder of Jimmy Hoffa, the murder of Joey Gallo and the delivery of guns for the John F. Kennedy assassination.
