A parasite named for Obama

“B. obamai is described in the August issue of the Journal of Parasitology as having a long, thread-like body. So far, it’s shown up in two freshwater turtles, the black marsh turtle (Siebenrockiella crassicollis) and southeast Asian box turtle (Cuora amboinensis).”

How appropriate. It’s now official.

Democrat gestapo still in business

“The IRS is refusing to recant the targeting criteria it used to single out tea party groups for intrusive scrutiny, according to court filings made public [Sept. 7]…

“At least three tea party groups are still awaiting approval from the IRS more than three years after agents publicly admitted they’d asked inappropriate questions and put the groups through unreasonable delays in obtaining tax-exempt status.”

The only solution to this lawlessness is to abolish the IRS. Maybe Trump will do it. We can be sure Felonia won’t. It’s her party’s ideological enforcement arm.

Schooling Fart, Barf & Itch

New agents are learning the bureau’s shameful history of wire-tapping Dr. King, thanks to new director Comey.

Next up: new agents will learn the bureau’s shameful history of protecting the Clintons and their “charitable” foundation, thanks to director Comey.

Both Democrat operations, by the way.

UPDATE: PJMedia’s Roger L. Simon: Comey should resign, for the good of the country. “He has humiliated the FBI and all its employees. The institution will never be the same, at least not for decades to come. The FBI is no longer an instrument of justice. It is the reverse. It is an obfuscater of justice and an enabler of the rich and powerful.” Yep. Not that Comey cares about that

Trump, our unelected (so far) president

Some of the usual suspects are giving his staff credit for engineering Trump’s meeting with Mexico’s president Enrique Pena Nieto. They should read Trump’s The Art of the Deal and Don Surber’s Trump The Press. It’s much more likely it was The Donald’s idea to take Pena Nieto up on his invitation before the Hildabeast did.

“President Peña Nieto invited both Trump and Clinton to meet with him to discuss immigration, and now it will look sort of like a pathetic game of catch up if Hillary accepts and meets with him second.”

The cool thing is that Trump came away looking, as he did when he beat Obama and Clinton to flooded Louisiana, and riotous Milwaukee, like a president. One uncowed by lack of political experience or humbled by the usual name-calling put-downs from the lapdog Democrat news media.

Not only that, the immigration speech he followed it with played up an angle the lapdogs have ignored. A less-permeable wall than the one we already have (yes, Virginia, we have a wall; it’s called a fence) would do more than help diminish if not stop illegal immigration. It could put the drug cartels out of business. They need our market and if they can’t get to it in sufficient numbers…

Turns out the cartels are what Pena Nieto is most concerned about, so he and Trump had common ground to stand on, whatever El Presidente’s feeling about illegal immigration. It has been, after all, a safety valve for Mexico’s ruling class, bleeding off the wretched poor who might otherwise stage another revolution.

Adds the Instapundit: “He’s turning her into Jeb, isn’t he?” Indeed he is.

When Barry gives the Internet to the U.N.

The dictator’s club will drool over their new power to censor whatever they don’t like. Leftists they fund, like our own Hildabeast, finally will get a shot at eliminating right-wingers like Drudge. Also the new global tax the U.N. will inherit in annual domain fees will brighten many a dictator’s dreary day.

But I agree with commenter Dan Westmoreland at the WSJ that they will then be at the mercy of the world’s twelve-year-old coders who are unencumbered by bureaucracies.

“I think if the UN or what ever try to control the net that personal innovation will overcome it,” comments Westmoreland at the WSJ on their revelation of our little Barry Hussein’s latest big lie. “The bureaucrats are way too stupid to control technology. Can’t even design a health care peck and search program. Twelve year olds will destroy all their efforts.”

Imagine that. Some pre-teen in Iowa, or Bangladesh, will make Kim Jong Un and his colleagues look even stupider than they already do. ‘Course it could change the way we do business here and on Twitter and Facebook, but something better, with encryption even Google can’t crack, just might come along. Pols are after money after all. Control is only a wish.

The mudslinging begins

You could say Trump’s calling the Hildabeast “Crooked Hillary,” which he has done all year, was the beginning of the mudslinging. But there’s actual evidence for her crookedness, whether it’s conclusive or not. Sure is a lot of (cough) smoke.

There’s no evidence at all for what Crooked Hillary is now doing: sliming Trump with accusations of a connection to the KKK. And calling Breitbart news readers like me white supremacists and racists, as well. (Breitbart isn’t one of her lapdogs.) Not that Trump doesn’t have a ready response that certainly rings true.

“When Democratic policies fail, they are left with only this one tired argument. ‘You’re racist, you’re racist, you’re racist,’ they keep saying it, ‘you’re racist.’ It’s a tired, disgusting argument, and it’s so totally predictable.”

Yep. And it’s also being backed, quite proudly, in fact, by the NYTimes and other Democrat media, without her specifics, in most cases, just the word racist. Will it work? Probably.

As the Instapundit explains: “One thing I’ve learned about the power of ‘mainstream’ media is that while they can no longer keep stories out of the public eye, their power to gin up, or quash, public outrage remains enormous.”

If she is elected with this ploy, you suckers who vote for her will deserve everything you get: higher taxes, higher unemployment, more Muslim immigrants, more terrorism, etc.

Me, I’ll get a CCL and spend a lot more time at the range. To be ready for the inevitable.

Crooked Hillary is a one-girl gang

“More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money — either personally or through companies or groups — to the Clinton Foundation….

“At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press [after three years of asking, begging and finally suing].

“Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.”

You can’t prove pay-to-play better than that. Our modern Ma Barker doesn’t need a gang to rob. She is one-girl gang.

What a time she will have in the White House. She won’t need to steal the antiques.
