Obama's pollsters got the overnight results in and ... he speaks !
His hand-picked appointee to the homeland Security Department was being bashed - rightfully, she's a fool - and the polls showed plenty of slippage for Obama's "leadership" and job approval, so he decides to get off the beach and away from the hula girls to speak about the terrorist attack.
WSJ: "A systemic failure has occurred and I consider that totally unacceptable," the president said, referencing "a mix of human and systemic failure." In his comments, the president cited information "that could have and should have been pieced together."
Gosh, what a revelation ! Anyone, repeat anyone, motivated to protect the American people as a priority would have done something with any single piece of that data. But Obama's people did nothing. Why ? They have other priorities.
This seems to be a failure at the very top - much like W on the Katrina debacle. Three days of silence tells one all that is needed. He just doesn't see this as a priority. That's rather obvious, based on his record on Guantanamo. This is just more confirmation.
This clown is becoming dangerous. Let's hope the outcries force some changes.

"becoming dangerous"?
the day he took the oath he spoke another lie
good morning Bman !!!!!
welcome back..............hope you enjoyed some gingerbread over xmas............my new drink ???
grande gingerbread latte with whipped cream from starbucks ..........is that too feminine for you ????
i don't think so.............was watchin a civil war show on the history channel that was focusin on the daytoday lives of soldiers............and guess what.........gingerbread was a regular part of the 'rations'
'jersey style beatdown son'
huh ??? central florida a f'ng community college !!! yeah............that's the jersey style alright.............beat up on lil'boys
that more like frosty style........ya'know...........he loves to .......ummmm............'beat up' to lil'boys
PS......still wanna be 'pals' ???
couldn't agree more Bman..............Janet has to go
she was a pure political appointment........just like Brownie..........she was one of the first prominent democratic woman to endorse obama over hillary.....that's how she got the job
they system worked for her indeed..........endorse and get a cabinet level job
well Bman..............i took a pistol safety and shooting lesson here locally........definitely alot of fun.............the thumping of powder ( or whatever u call it) feels good
i shot a revolver and a sigsauerp226........and 1 other semiautomatic that used 22caliber bullets
but i got a few issues with the range i go to........mainly safety.......i just don't feel safe there...........my instructor spent alot of time on safety and range ettiquette.....the 2 times i went there on my own............guys were thrown out for not observing the rules
once for takin the gun out of his holster and shooting ( the gun is always supposed to be on the ledge in front pointed in the safe direction) ......and the other time 2 friends were interchanging each other booths with pistols in hand...........very dangerous
besides the booths are also very close to each other..............i'm literally shooting about the 3 feet form the next guy ....with a thin wood wall between us
also indoor ranges are not that mmuch fun..............i need an outdoor range............but the problem here is all the outdoor ranges don't rent.........and i don't wanna buy til a shoot a lot of different guns.............this range i go to has over 100 different guns you can rent.........but the range sucks
run to a new range
true, mav.
I gave him a chance; Mrs. B warned me about that.
His deeds are now catching up to the words.
oh.............part of my basic lesson was a $35 membership to the NRA...........can't wait for my first issue of the American rifleman and baseball cap!!!
Bmanare you a member of the NRA?
Bman are you a Dick miller fan ?? you got any of his cd's ??
I hadn't heard that about gingerbread. Have read a few books about daily life of Civil War soldiers: Billy Yank, Johnny Reb, etc.
as for a gingerbread latte being "too feminine", well .. no comment.
It's too sweet.
i just emailed a friend of a friend of mine................he owns 3 semiautomatic rifles ( is that the correct terminology)......and he said we can all go to an outdoor range and shoot'em.............i let you know what he owns when he responds
that range does sound dangerous, Bud. Stay away.
an indoor place like that can be OK to test different firearms, but it's not an enjoyable place to shoot.
re NRA, yes, I'm a Benefactor or Patron, whichever the highest level is; also a Golden Eagle.
Mrs. B is a LIfe member, too.
Dick Miller ???
yes, re terminolgy "semiautomatic rifles"
those are fun to shoot.
btw, practice with a .22 is a good idea - learn sighting, trigger control, etc. cheaply with no pain.

i was watchin some show on the 1920s and 30s in america................music was good......sort of jazzy big band
and at the end i thought the credits said the music was by 'Dick Miller Orchestra'..........maybe i got the name wrong............the other credits were Glenn miller.........also good
Bman....I am compiling a list for gun purchases next month...I have done extensive research but some advice from you would much appreciated...if you (Bman) had zero guns today...name the pistols, rifles and shotguns you would buy...I understand a gun is a personal preference.
maybe there is a Dick Miller band; there were many, many big bands.
Glenn Miller is one of the greats.
Also, Artie Shaw, Harry James, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman.
Top Five in my opinion. Different styles are Count Basie, Duke Ellington.
well, Mav ... will think about it. Maybe I'll come up with ten after much culling
;)
for hunting (four-legged beasts), it's better to ask frosty.
my focus is personal protection, practice, civil strife.
same here Bman....not a hunter
Iowa State-Minnesota....what a waste of money, time and effort...
Bud I have heard rumors that you are modeling yourself after "The Situation" in 2010...Is this true sir?
Bud I have heard rumors that you are modeling yourself after "The Situation" in 2010...Is this true sir?
Merny..I saw in the paper that you sold your house..congrats..happy new year to ya......
Mav is a big hunter of beaver and cougar...claims to already be very well equipped.
a basic for everyones home protection arsenal is a 12ga. 8 shoot room broom...I prefer the striker 12 front cylinder street sweeper.
Here's the list, Mav.
Ruger 77-22-RSP rifle bolt .22 LR
Springfield Armory M1A rifle semi-auto .308 Win.
Mossberg M500 Persuader shotgun slide 12 gauge
H&K Benelli M1 Super 90 shotgun semi-auto 12 gauge
Beretta 950 pistol semi-auto .25 ACP
Marlin 1894CS rifle lever .38 / .357 mag.
Smith & Wesson Model 617 revolver revolver - DA .22 LR
Walther PPK pistol semi-auto .380 ACP
Para-Ordnance P-14 pistol semi-auto .45 ACP
CZ (Ceska Zbrojovka) 70 pistol semi-auto 7.65 mm - .32 ACP
American Derringer 1 derringer breech, O/U .45 LC / .410 g.
Armalite AR15A2NM rifle semi-auto .223 Rem.
Smith & Wesson Airweight 642 revolver double .38 Spl. +P
Remington 700 VS rifle bolt .308 Win.
Glock Model 19 pistol semi-auto 9 mm Para.
Ruger GP100 revolver revolver - DA .38 / .357 mag.
Remington 11-87 Sporting Clays shotgun semi-auto 12 gauge
I own all these. I'm not sure it all are still made; they might have changed the model numbers.
Sal...your best defense...practice hitting the ground in the fetal position, screaming like a lil girl...fake fingernails for scratching and consider the purchase of a reliable butt plug.
Gun Tests magazine is pretty good for reviews, btw.
big bands, guns,civil war,20,30's show,...flazzhead full court press to get the bunky gold star favorite award ...LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
for auto pistols, always buy two spare magazines made by the manufacturer if possible.
Aftermarket mags are not always reliable - test them.
Those hi power rifles are mostly sniper - national match quality, except the lever action one that is a pair for the .357 revolver.
the .22's are for cheap practice.
I think keeping home protection to one firearm is rather stupid. I keep five plus some knives & a battle ax.
;)
much appreciated Bman...well done
Bunk...nonono 9mm or 362 (30.06)...shame on you...the most universal calibers a must have...feild strip the dead enemy of ammo etc....can't be certain ammo can be purchased worst case.
shotgun is the Benelli semi-auto, so I can cover left-handed corners without exposing myself.
loaded with two rounds #7 birdshot, then heavy #1 buck & slugs in a mix.
plenty of spare cartridges in a bandolier plus six in a "sidesaddle"
the Glock is 9mm
Good point re 30-06; but .308 is rather common now.
Mine are Garands & a Remington 700 BDL with fine scope.
IFF I was in more "action", the 9mm firearm would be the Uzi.
I have some 7.62x39 rifles, but not my favs.
I don't intend to go on "action" missions overseas at my age.
;)
'five plus some knives & a battle ax'
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
PS......what ?? no tomahawk ??
great list Bman...................thanks
ace did i see you on this week's episode of Jersey Shore ?? you're the fag.....right ??
'so predictable'
'tedious'
'fag jokes'
btw, I know how to shoot the full auto AKs, & if I'm stripping dead of ammo, I can take the assault rifle, too.
;)
no tomahawk in the house - the battle ax is much more effective.
;)
oh, if you need to worry about armor or vehicles, the Barrett .50 BMG semi auto is the choice.

"OH MY HAMMMYYYYY....MY HAAAMMMMYYYYY!!!!!!!!"...jerry manuel..."rub some dirt on it"
for very long range sniper work, I have a .300 Win Mag. rifle with a heavy fluted barrel - a Remington.
all that and one nigga in ur house ..pea pants,hand it over and run for hills
Bman...intruder in the house....are you grabbing the Benelli semi or Mossberg pump?
like anything in the lab....theory is a wonderful thing
Bunk chicago pmi 60.0...would that not indicate 3-4% gdp and signal job growth, as you anticipated?...yet you are sitting in jan puts... is there more to this story than you are sharing...I think so
Bunkerman if someone invaded the bunker do you think you'd have the stones to actually shoot and kill him?
If its a home invasion & I notice in time, the Benelli.
The mossberg pump is for travel, since it's very short with a pistol grip.
no notice - the dogs delay them a bit & I get the Ruger GP 100 or one of three Smith .38's in one of the various hiding places.
If I have to do to the door, it's the S&W 642 in pocket or the derringger.
sure, I'd put at least two in the center of mass.
I know the law well.
It's "freeze, M-F", then blast if he moves towards me.
I know how my adrenalin acts.
Bunk...do you own cattle?
the recent ISM services #s were weak, if my memory is correct.
no cattle.
Mrs. B wants sheep for dog training.
Do you own hats??
Bud why bother learning to shoot? It takes onions to pull the trigger son...big onions...
I've got some nice WW II helmets waiting for prize winners
& for my half-track crew
;)
those Barretts are beasts
Mern knows how to handle crip/blood home invaders...can elude a cougar in the wild and tame the domestic variety...needle in the are? nonono worries
also, GDP should grow at 6%+ off this low as its was mostly caused by a panic.
Sal...you people forget your van in time square.
"I'm concerned that we will soon see the first severe market correction since the March lows."...thx jim...Krypto back in the tank...I think so...I knew something was off with Bunk, now we know.
Bunk sure you recall...jim likes a lil extra starch in the shirt collar.
thnx for warning, frosty.
I'm nervous now.
Hmmmmmmm
Maybe "He" reads this blog ???
I put my puts on yesterday ... and today ... that quote appears.
Hey Jim, if you read this blog, please send $6K to me forthwith.
IF I get that $6K, I'll donate it to some good cause, like the Fisher Houses.
Bunk...Mike wants to know if you flipped those puts yet...and what the cover charge is for the champagne room?
sheesh ...
of course I have not flipped the puts.
"Champagne Room" ?
Mrs. B & I stay home for New Year's
I'm making spring rolls for good luck .. hmmm ... maybe for tomorrow's blog, I'll post the recipe.
"Champagne Room" ?
you know where the "girls" entertain the high rollers...sounds like you need to hire SpinconsultingInc...he'll pump up the skim.
sheesh, you guys know I keep a layer between me and the "details".
I just get paid every month ... or else !
