During Senate testimony this morning, when questioned about Ambassador Susan Rice purposely misleading the American public post-Benghazi, the Washington Post reports Hillary Clinton said that “…it’s less important…” to determine what motivated the Benghazi attackers “…than to find them and bring them to justice…”

While justice cries out for the 4 Americans killed on Sept. 11 in Libya, we would suggest that the thousands of Americans now serving overseas in dangerous hotspots want to know their country is doing everything possible to keep them safe…that expectation is predicated on the importance of understanding motivation and premeditation.

Secretary Clinton reveals everything that’s wrong about this administration’s world view.

What has happened cannot be changed…what will happen next could be changed, with a better understanding of past events that results in better preparation for the future.

American diplomats and security people in harm’s way deserve a better understanding of priorities than the inverted view Secretary Clinton and Obama officials offer.

Because, the Middle East being what it is…there WILL be a next time…

Loosely adapted…“Those who won’t learn from history are…doomed…”

Challenge…can you identify the pattern in the following history of civil rights?

1860 – pro-slavery anti-civil rights Democrats, in a desperate attempt to maintain slavery, nominate not one, but two pro-slavery candidates for president. (That effort back-fired, and anti-slavery Republican Abraham Lincoln was elected president.)

1964 – anti-civil rights Democrats lead a Senate filibuster to block the Civil Rights Act (Republicans eventually gained enough Democrat support to get it passed that June).

2013 – anti-civil rights Democrats now lead an assault against Americans in their effort to curb 2nd Amendment civil liberties, which Republicans staunchly defend.

FYI – Civil rights & civil liberties are guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights (the original 10 amendments), and subsequent amendments.

Did you spot that pattern yet…?

Don’t worry though: if Liberal Armored Angst’ers and the mainstream media onslaught succeed, soon gun ownership will no longer be a civil right…

…and gun control will be its replacement (historical rewrites being what they are).

Then the question of ‘how stupid can Americans be?’ will finally be answered.

Rush Limbaugh just mentioned some teacher or professor is suggesting we end the celebration of Thanksgiving, and in its place, invoke a ‘National Day of Atonement’, for the past history of – I don’t know…black oppression, white supremacy(?) – in the USA.

In all seriousness…isn’t that day – April 15th, tax day – already in place?

Or is that $1 trillion+ spent every year on welfare programs just going down a rathole?

File under Foxhole Philosophy – The Key to Life, it’s very essence…is Integrity.

Hidden from a sniper in a long-ago war, where any slight movement could invite an unwelcome ‘full metal jacket’ response, one often experiences a ‘near-death clarity’.

What’s important in Life? What’s the essence? Stark reality, that an unseen adversary could take all away with 7.62mm finality, reveals that status, position, life-experiences, material possessions…all mean nothing when the crosshairs are on your chest.

Thus, a ‘foxhole’ revelation…The meaning of Life is in how you choose to Live it.

After all, everything you have can be taken away. Whether by sniper in far-away jungle or desert wars, a random drunken driver, or an aloof government in Washington, your life can be changed in a heartbeat…regardless of any desperate efforts on your part.

Your house, your kids, your job, your car, even your life…anything of any importance to you…can be taken – except your Integrity. That can’t be taken, unless you give it away.

Integrity is the Essence…it’s the only thing you truly own, that can’t be taken from you. This applies to how you live your life, and every issue you encounter along the way.

An issue without Integrity has no value. So what does it say about an issue, if deception or falsehoods are necessary to support it, rather than a bedrock foundation of Integrity?

Yet, once again, in an attack on the American people and the Constitution, the Left’s favorite leader has relied on – not just deception, not just falsehoods – but, sadly, child exploitation as well, in an effort to further erode 2nd Amendment rights of citizens.

Relying on deception, falsehoods, and child exploitation to push Gun Control should tell you everything you need to know about how invalid the Left’s argument has been.

More importantly, when does Obama get held to account for his willingness to – once again – perpetrate a hoax on Americans, using such devious, shameful tactics?

So many hoaxes…so little time…

18th century English author Samuel Johnson said that “…patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel…”; meant as a criticism of what he viewed as false patriotism in others.

Add to our American lexicon a new entry – ‘Obamalism’ – defining an all-inclusive rich tapestry of falsehoods, deception, and (child) exploitation, woven to sell the next hoax…

…used as a descriptive for an act necessary when issues lack Integrity.

When Integrity goes AWOL – ‘Obamalism’…the last refuge of a hoaxster.

Just goes to show you how clued in our under-30 generation is…

The Washington Times ran a story of a Pew poll that showed only 44% of that age group knew Roe-v-Wade was about abortion. BCP thought it would be educational to take an informal poll of youngsters attending a prominent college in the area.

Appears that our college-area kids seem more clued in than Pew’s. Over 58% knew it was a Supreme Court decision involving abortion. Sadly, the clueless were way off…

23% thought Roe-v-Wade was a sport-fisherman’s choice between fishing from a boat or walking in shallows close to shoreline…

17% thought Roe-v-Wade was a body-builder’s protein regimen choice of fish eggs versus milk curd (whey) protein drinks…

2% told us to drop dead.

(We assume they were coyly suggesting a self-induced very-late-term abortion.)

Left-wing media and blogsters are up-in-arms (pun intended) over the new NRA ad that calls Obama ‘just another elitist hypocrite’ who wants armed security for his kids at school, while dismissing that need for the rest of the nation. (BCP coined the phrase ‘Armored Angst-ers’ for the armed security hypocrite Lib crowd in a Jan 03 blog.)

The point the Left rushes to make is that Obama’s kids ARE more important than yours, by nature of his elected position. (And it probably drives them crazy that the NRA turned Obama’s ‘fairness’ doctrine against him, citing his typical liberal hypocrisy when it comes to a ‘fair share of security’ for the nations school-children as a whole).

BlueCollar suggests that those Americans who feel their kids are just as important as Obama’s should start a White House petition, requesting that Liberal leadership immediately show us the way by declaring their childrens’ schools Gun-Free zones, and then take it one step further by declaring their own workplaces Gun-Free zones as well.

After all, as the NRA noted, Obama and Democrats feel very strongly about Fairness…

(Be advised though, that the White House has just upped the signature requirements on those petitions, slightly…well, okay, quadrupled…)

C’mon, all you Armored Angst-ers…put your security where your mouth is…

What comes first…the Debt, or the Spending…?

So, when you hear an elected official say “it’s not about Spending”, ask yourself…

…who voted for that Fool?

Don’t allow a crisis to happen…

Those of us with children know our kids love the ‘crisis game’. When issues arise, they wait until the last minute to tell us, hoping parents will make a decision the kids want.

And, when the game is realized, any good parent tells the kids from now on, if a crisis is created by waiting til the last minute, the answer the child doesn’t want will be given.

How is it that these spoiled ‘children’ in Washington DC continue to get away with ‘the crisis game’…?

Russell Simmons held a press conference today, calling for ‘unarmed mediators’ to be hired for our nations’ schools.

Isn’t that what they already had at Sandy Hook Elementary School?

(We won’t even discuss the irony of suggestions such as this coming from someone who’s making millions of dollars off ‘gangsta rap’! And of course, we assume his security detail is ‘unarmed’…)

Tragically, the mainstream media will no doubt join hands in praising this idiocy…

Regardless of what you think of Newt Gingrich, he does cut to the heart of matters…

Chicago is the poster-child of failed gun control policy, and serves as the perfect setting for a Congressional discussion of those failures.
