“Tablet Magazine, an online Jewish publication, published an editorial Friday [Crossing A Line To Sell A Deal] calling out President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party for their use of anti-Jewish rhetoric in an effort to whip up public support for the Iran deal.”
Some deal. Peace in our time? Hardly. Lotsa bucks for Iran’s military.
UPDATE: Poor Barry. He thought he could lie his way out of his treasonous obeisance to the Mullahs. You know, like he did with Obamacare, Benghazi, etc.

When I was young and, for whatever reason, wound up watching television news or reading the front page of a newspaper, I’d see some jowly old white Southern Democrat congressman explaining why racial segregation really wasn’t a problem because he and his cronies had things well in hand.
Nowadays that particular lie is most often told by some jowly old Southern black Democrat congressman like Elisha Cummings of Maryland who recently assured the Democrat’s chief CNN stenographer Candy Crowley that the IRS “problems” have been solved and we can all go back to sleep now.
Meanwhile handsome young Southern Hispanic Florida Republican senator Marco Rubio is lying out both sides of his mouth, in English on one side and in Spanish on the other, to justify how the pols just need to get on with this amnesty legislation so the multimillion illegal immigrants of the Hispanic persuasion can be legalized. And, no doubt, make them eligible for welfare and food stamps, as well. And, it should be needless to say, prompt their cousins to cross the border as well.
And our very first black President Wormtongue has always casually told one lie after another knowing very well that Crowley & colleagues in the snooze media are fellow Democrats who will take everything he says as the honest truth or at least not make any effort to look into whether it might not be.
In other words, very little has changed among our political class since the late 1950s. They still lie. You still can’t trust them. No matter which party they’re in. But, hey, aren’t they just as diverse as all get out? And doesn’t that make you feel good? No? You racist.
UPDATE: Re Cummings’ unbelievable assurances on the IRS, nevermind email and phone snooping by the NSA, the IRS itself is watching your every move in the Web.
“…taxpayers should know that whatever people do and say electronically can and will be used against them in IRS enforcement.”
Our new surveillance state has become pervasive. Goodbye land of liberty.

Saw Bum Phillips this afternoon at a restaurant in Goliad, on the way down to Port A. Except for the two in-ear hearing aids in his ears the former coach of the former Houston Oilers looked younger than his 80-something years.
No, he was not wearing his trademark cowboy hat. But one was painted on the passenger-side door of his truck. Right atop a drawing of a football. I heard the cashier tell him “Thanks, coach,” when he paid for himself and two friends.
Back in the car Mrs. Charm did a quick Google on him on her iPhone and found that he has retired to a horse ranch near Goliad. Imagine running horses at his age.
She also found a Tweet on Barry’s visit to Austin today. It said that Gov. Rick Perry was at the airport to meet him and handed the prez two letters: F and U. Heh.

I’m not so sure that Barry’s idea to throw money at the nation’s sagging infrastructure amounts to no more than one guy digging a hole and another guy filling it in, as some conservatives are suggesting. I see no reason to be that cynical yet.
I agree that it probably won’t do much for recovery from the recession. But there undoubtedly is work to be done–see Minnesota’s bridge disaster of 2007. Some of what the old CCC did survives today in such as state park facilities in Texas. There are going to be lots of ways to ridicule Barry’s presidency, but I don’t think this is going to be one of them.
Via Instapundit.
UPDATE: Well, it turns out I’m a bit naive. Seems to be more about parks and sports centers than pot-holed roads and falling-apart bridges. It really wouldn’t be like pols to fix the obvious stuff since at best the only thing they could point to would be a little sign with their name on it. Feh!
