Obama Years In Nine Charts
Obama Years In Nine Charts
Conspiracy Theory
This one is making the rounds. Farfetched conspiracy theory, but interesting nonetheless.
I actually fear Obama more as Secretary General of the United Nations, or as a justice on the SCOTUS.
The damage he could unleash on his hated America from the UN on behalf of the rest of the world would be devastating. My only hope is that his laziness and love of golf will reign in any future ambitions. But I think the temptation to be the worst James Bond villain imaginable will be too great at some point. Redistribution of wealth, reparations payments, climate change penalties, one world advocacy, partnering with Val's Iran, bringing us to our knees in every respect.
Or appointed to SCOTUS, dear God. This supposed Constitutional expert will continue to shred this, in his view, "working document," until there's nothing left of it.
He truly is the most dangerous man on the planet. George Soros is a close 2nd.

Here's a nightmare for ya'.
Obama’s plan for a THIRD TERM.Obama’s third TERM.Quite interesting, knowing how mischievous Obama is.He already has every base covered and there will be nobody to stop him.What we are watching on TV today is just a show to keep us from focusing on Obama.On top of everything else he loathes Hillary and he won’t do her any favors.Get ready.Here’s a very scary thought…………..An elderly and very knowledgeable friend told me his theory about the upcoming election and the next four years of U.S. government. At first I thought it a bit far-fetched. But as I listened to him it began to make sense, scary sense…'I believe that Hillary Clinton will win the election in November. Then, sometime between November and January, Hillary will be indicted. The IRS and the FBI are now investigating the Clinton Foundation and the whole e-mail thing isn’t over yet.''Once under indictment she won’t be able to assume the Office of the President in January. Tim Kaine, who will not actually be the Vice President because neither he nor Hillary have been inaugurated, cannot assume the Presidency.''The Speaker of the House can’t move up to it because there is already a sitting President and Vice President. So President Obama, in an Executive Order citing “emergency situation,” gives himself another four years in office. He'll declare it's the only way possible.'My friend believes Obama has been planning this for a while now, knowing he has enough on Hillary to indict her. Had the Attorney General indicted her earlier based on evidence from the FBI this plan wouldn’t have worked because the DNC would have quickly come up with another candidate.If you think about it, it’s not that outrageous. Many people on the left, including the President, want Obama to stay another four years. The law prohibits him from being re-elected so the only two ways he can do it is by declaring martial law and suspending the election (which would be a very negative thing for the country with great backlash) or to declare himself still President because the elected candidate cannot assume her duties. The Attorney General will concur that it is legal and constitutional.The latter makes more sense and is actually more feasible. And since it’s never been done before, it would set a precedent that would be difficult to challenge."

Not the Onion, and not Bagdad) Nearly 100 people shot in Chicago in less than a week
Nearly 100 people shot in Chicago in less than a week
Alexandra ChachkevitchContact ReporterChicago Tribune
Nearly 100 people have been shot in Chicago in less than a week, pushing the number of shooting victims so far this year to more than 2,500 — about 800 more than this time last year, according to data kept by the Tribune.
Between last Friday afternoon and early Thursday, at least 99 people were shot in the city, 24 of them fatally. At least nine people were killed on Monday alone, the deadliest day in Chicago in 13 years, according to Tribune data. Among the wounded that day was a 10-year-old boy shot in the back as he played on his front porch in Lawndale.
The number of shooting victims in Chicago stood at 2,514 Thursday morning. At this time last year, 1,725 people had been shot. The city has not seen this level of gun violence since the 1990s, a trend the Police Department has blamed on lax gun laws and feuding gang factions.
Over eight hours from Wednesday evening through early Thursday, three people were killed and at least 10 others were wounded in the city.
A 45-year-old man was killed and two others were wounded when someone walked up to their van in the Gresham neighborhood around 1:55 a.m. Thursday, yelled "Hey" and started shooting, police said.
The three — two men and a woman — had been stopped at a stop sign in the 8000 block of South Marshfield Avenue when the gunman opened fire, police said. The van took off, made a left turn on 78th Street and stopped, police said.
The 45-year-old man was shot in the back and forearm. He was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn and was pronounced dead, police said.
The other man was shot in the right forearm and was taken to Stroger Hospital, where his condition was stabilized. The woman was struck in the hip and back. She was also taken to Stroger, where her condition was stabilized, police said.
About 10:20 p.m. Wednesday, a 22-year-old man died after being shot in the head in the West Pullman neighborhood on the Far South Side, police said.
Officers responded to a call of shots fired and found Stephan Triplett lying on the parkway in the 12400 block of South Lowe Avenue, police said. He was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 11:13 p.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
Triplett, who also spelled his Stephon in some public records, lived two blocks away in the 12400 block of South Emerald Avenue, the office said.
The third fatal shooting occurred around the same time, at 10 p.m., in the Near West Side neighborhood, police said.
A 22-year-old woman was in a car traveling west on Adams Street near Oakley Avenue when a black Hyundai sedan pulled up and someone got out and fired shots, police said. The gunman ran away as the Hyundai sped away, police said.
The woman was hit twice in the chest. She was driven to Mount Sinai Hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said.
She was identified as Jamie Williams, of the 10600 block of South LaSalle Street, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office. She was pronounced dead at 10:19 p.m. after suffering a gunshot wound to the chest, the office determined following an autopsy Thursday.
Other shootings:
• Around 4 a.m. Thursday, a 31-year-old man was wounded in the 5200 block of West Quincy Street in the Austin neighborhood, police said. The man was shot in the lower back, and he was taken in fair condition to Mount Sinai Hospital, police said.
• Around 12:20 a.m., a 34-year-old man was critically wounded in the Lawndale neighborhood on the West Side, police said. The man was shot five times in the 4200 block of West Grenshaw Street. He was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition, police said.
• About 11 p.m. Wednesday, a 27-year-old man was wounded in the Marquette Park neighborhood on the Southwest Side, police said. The man was in the 7200 block of South Artesian Avenue when he was shot in the right foot. He was taken to a hospital but his condition was not known.
• About 10 p.m., a 20-year-old woman was wounded in the Longwood Manor neighborhood on the Far South Side, police said. The woman was in the 9600 block of South Wentworth Avenue when she was shot in the right foot. She was taken to Roseland Community Hospital, where she was listed in good condition, police said. Police said the woman was being uncooperative.
• About 9:20 p.m., a 24-year-old man was grazed in the South Chicago neighborhood on the South Side, police said. The man was walking in the 2400 block of East 82nd Street when someone sitting on a park bench took out a gun and fired, police said. The man was grazed and was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in good condition, police said.
• Paramedics were called to the 5600 block of South Wolcott Avenue about 8:55 p.m. and found two shooting victims, said Chicago Fire Department spokesman Jeff Lyle. One person was shot in the arm, the other was shot in the leg, Lyle said.
One of them was taken to Holy Cross Hospital, and an ambulance remained to treat the other person, Lyle said.
• About 8:25 p.m. on the Far South Side, a 32-year-old man was shot in the back in the 700 block of East 105th Place in the Roseland neighborhood, said Officer Thomas Sweeney, a police spokesman.

 Despite his “endorsement” on April Fools Day of Donald Trump (hehe), Jimmy Buffett will host a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton later this month in the Hamptons.
Jimmy has hosted and performed at many political fundraisers and rallies over the years for Democratic candidates and environmental causes.

All you need to know about the problem with Higher Education, in one tiny article...
This article (link below) is not really about the millions in state-funded handouts to their laid off administrators, which is criminal enough.
Here's the real math:
Excerpts from Article:
The state university has let go of nearly 400 employees since the beginning of the year, or about 40 percent of its staff.
The 150-year-old public university served about 4,500 students last year.
WRD:
So if they laid off 400 people, and that's 40%, that means they had 1,000 people there. They served 4,500 students. They had 1,000 people for 4,500 students? Are you freaking kidding? That's a ratio of 1 to 4.5. How in anyone's world could this be justified? These colleges and universities have become jobs programs for the elite, the eggheads who can't do anything else. And of course they're 90+% lefties, and with that comes the usual bitching, moaning, and complaining of how large their class load is, how little office time they get, how much they are underfunded, blah, blah, blah.
Talk about insanity, this is it.
And by the way, this is one of the worst colleges in the country. Feel free to check.

Bernie Sanders's Free College Tuition Problem
So that's how these old gray-bearded Socialists can afford all those tweed jackets with elbow patches on them. Sickening.

Bernie Sanders is running for president of the United States proclaiming that under his presidency, all Americans will have the opportunity to attend public college for free. There's only one fly in the ointment of this free college proposa...

Neil Cavuto embarrasses student who wants free college and has no idea h...
We needed this to be part of our archives. I realize you've all seen this entitled little brat by this point, but certainly want it to be part of our record here. You can't teach stupid. You can only try to contain it. She got into college. That in itself should be a crime. I wouldn't pay a penny toward her college debt because obviously, she didn't get an education. She got an indoctrination, as demonstrated in this telling segment, but not an education. Therefore, like the movie said, "your incoherent ramblings have all made us dumber. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
