The Censored Secret Outtake Files of @BiffSpackle, 2015

Bawdy and inappropriate, handle with care.

As an aside, this is why we now have a firm policy in place to drug-test all interns.

SECRET CONVOS COMIX

Vote for the Candidate Both Sides Fear

By Brent Smith

Yes, Cruz is the real deal. No need to take my word for it. Just look and listen. It’s as Limbaugh says: the left and the establishment right will always tell you who they fear the most.

Sure, they hate both Trump and Cruz. The hatred for Trump is understandable, from their standpoint. He makes Republicans look bad. He’s intolerant and generally causes them embarrassment.

But the antipathy for Cruz is born of fear. They fear the end of the government gravy train if he gets elected. They fear that with Cruz at the helm, Americans may just discover they don’t actually need Washington involved in every facet of their lives. They fear an uncompromising constitutional standard bearer as head of the party.

YES, REALLY: Obama to Fight "Gun Violence" by Freeing Drug Dealers, Importing Terrorists and Gangbangers

And then he'll free more drug dealers and bring in more terrorists

 
By Daniel Greenfield

Barack Obama is very concerned about gun violence.

That's why he voted against charging school shooters as adults back in Chicago and why Federal gun crime prosecutions have fallen to a new low under him. It's why his amnesty has driven hordes of gang members to America even while he continues freeing violent drug dealers from prison.

Like this guy.

Key Metrics and Some "Thank You" Notes for 2015

Okay, I'm bored and watching the college football playoffs* (no skin in the game here, but I find myself rooting for Clemson with one of their top defensive players sidelined on the very first play). Upstairs, a Twilight Zone marathon is occurring (host Rod Serling sidling out with a lit cigarette to intro the show is classic).

This seems an opportune time to visit Google Analytics (GA) and find out who has been naughty and who's been nice.

(*You can tell when I started writing this post)

QOTD: "In 2011, [The New York Times' featured Syrian refugee] Kamal was arrested and imprisoned by the Syrian military for protesting against the government. Over the next 14 months, he says, he was tortured with electric shocks and beatings -- and the removal of his kidney "as a punishment."

...He says he didn't want to relocate to another part of Syria because the Syrians there would "slaughter" him and his family because he drinks alcohol and his wife doesn't always wear a hijab.

...But he's baffled that Texans are not yelping with joy at the prospect of bringing another 100,000 Syrians here. Why would any country not jump at the chance to admit masses of people who administer electric shocks and remove organs as punishment for protesting the government? We must be crazy!

...If anyone hates Syrians, it's Kamal. He left his home to get 7,000 miles away from Syrians -- whom he now wants to bring to the U.S.

...By contrast, these are the horrors Kamal has suffered at the hands of Texans, which he shared with the Times: The Texas agriculture commissioner posted pictures of refugees and rattlesnakes on Facebook with the caption: "Can you tell me which of these rattlers won't bite you?"

...Well, can you? Kamal can't. He voted with his feet by getting the hell out of his entire country, which -- again -- he now wants to import to Texas..." --Ann Coulter

PRIMAL SCREAM: Obama to Import Millions More Aliens to Replace U.S. White Collar Workers, Also Stop Deportations

And the GOPe Beltway insiders wonder why Americans are so pissed?

...Barack Obama is preparing a colossal new executive action that could print-up work permits for a huge number of foreign white-collar graduates every year, above and beyond the levels set by Congress.

This executive action, which directly bypasses Congressional lawmakers, is likely to reverberate across the presidential race, as GOP voters look to choose a nominee they believe will most effectively roll back the President’s still-expanding agenda. And it will certainly raise new security concerns as it covers categories of immigration utilized by migrants from the Middle East and nearby regions.

CHART: State of the Road to the Nomination; Observations and Expectations; "Unleash the Dogs of War"

The accompanying chart depicts Real Clear Politics' rolling national polling averages for the GOP presidential nomination.

I've annotated a couple of key dates, December 29th (the most recent data) and October 29th, so we can see the current state of play and compare it with how the race looked two months ago.

There are some very interesting observations we can make and several expectations we might have based upon these numbers and trends:

QOTD: "The Border Patrol nabbed two Pakistani men with ties to terrorism at the U.S.-Mexico border in September in the latest instance of illegal immigrants from so-called “special interest countries” using the southern border as a point of entry to the U.S.

Muhammad Azeem and Mukhtar Ahmad, both in their 20s and from Gujrat, were caught Sept. 20 by agents south of San Diego and just over the international border from Tijuana. When agents checked their identities through databases they got hits on both of them: Mr. Ahmad popped up as an associate of a known or suspected terrorist, while Mr. Azeem’s information had been shared by a foreign government for intelligence purposes.

Both men had been processed two months earlier by immigration officials in Panama, suggesting they took advantage of smuggling networks or other routes increasingly used by Central American illegal immigrants to sneak into the U.S." --Stephen Dinan

AN OPEN LETTER TO HILLARY CLINTON: From One Who Knows

By Juanita Broaddrick, 15 October 2000

As I watched Rick Lazio's interview on Fox News this morning, I felt compelled to write this open letter to you, Mrs. Clinton. Brit Hume asked Mr. Lazio's views regarding you as a person and how he perceived you as a candidate. Rick Lazio did not answer the question, but I know that I can. You know it, too.

I have no doubt that you are the same conniving, self-serving person you were twenty-two years ago when I had the misfortune to meet you. When I see you on television, campaigning for the New York senate race, I can see the same hypocrisy in your face that you displayed to me one evening in 1978. You have not changed.

I remember it as though it was yesterday. I only wish that it were yesterday and maybe there would still be time to do something about what your husband, Bill Clinton, did to me.

NO-FIRST AMENDMENT-ZONE: New York City Adds to its Legacy of Defiling the Constitution, Bans Free Speech

By Karl Denninger

So now the truth is an act subject to fines?

Did you call a transsexual person “he” or “she” when they preferred to be called “zhe?” According to a newly updated anti-discrimination law in New York City, you could be fined an eye-watering $250,000.

In the latest, astonishing act of draconian political correctness, the NYC Commission on Human Rights have updated a law on “Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Expression” to threaten staggering financial penalties against property owners who “misgender” employees or tenants.

What part of the First Amendment did you miss?

WHY, THIS DOESN’T SEEM STAGED AT ALL: 9-Year Old Asks Hillary About Gender Pay Equity at Town Hall

It's a pity that no regular American (a descriptor which automatically excludes 95 percent of all "professional journalists") can get close enough to Granny Catlady to ask her a serious question. Instead, she's fielding carefully lobbed softballs from the likes of 9-year old Red Diaper Baby:

EUGENE ROBINSON’s EMBARRASSING CASE OF AMNESIA: Forgets That Democrats Once Sided With American Workers

By Jerry Kammer

The Washington Post's Eugene Robinson seems to delight in the Republican Party's torment. In his latest column, Robinson was aghast that while GOP positions had once "dovetailed nicely with the views of business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce," now it has gone the other way with the populist revolt against proposals to give legal status to illegal immigrants and to increase immigration.

RATHER PROBLEMATIC: Rubio Endorsement Puts Trey Gowdy's Radical Open Borders Policies Back in Spotlight

By Julia Hahn

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC)’s endorsement of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) may shine an unwanted spotlight on the South Carolinian’s record of past radical statements on immigration and his aggressive support for donor class policies embraced by Sen. Rubio.

Gowdy’s extreme immigration declarations come in addition to his long-standing support for donor-class Republican lawmakers. For instance, in a closed-door GOP leadership election in November of 2014, Gowdy seconded Rep. John Boehner (R-OH)’s nomination as House Speaker. Similarly, Gowdy was the Congressman who nominated Paul Ryan for Speaker. According to Politico, Boehner “secretly urged Gowdy to run” for House Majority Leader.

SERIES OF NEW BOOKS CONFIRM: Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton Gave Birth to ISIS

Writing at Bloomberg (the news site, not the deranged, fascist ex-mayor), Tobin Harshaw reviews several new books that describe the rise of ISIS:

Abu Musab al-Zarqawi... would eventually become the most feared man in the Middle East ... In the insurrection after the toppling of Saddam Hussein, Zarqawi's al-Qaeda in Iraq announced itself to the world by blowing up the United Nations headquarters in Baghdad. Attacks on mosques in Baghdad, Karbala and Samarra inflamed sectarian tensions between Shiites and Sunnis. Video of his personal beheading of the American businessman Nick Berg in 2004 became a global viral hit, and the U.S. put out a $25 million bounty. He took to calling himself "sheikh of the slaughterers."

OBAMA’S IRAN DEAL: The World’s Most Dangerous Hoax

By Roger Aronoff

The mainstream media blindly championed the Iranian deal at the expense of reason, celebrating its “signing” and every prospective step for implementation. But the not-so-surprising revelation is that there is, in fact, no Iran deal. There are just a number of political commitments made by each of the so-called P5+1 countries, in the hope that Iran will somehow reform itself.

Iran, on the other hand, seems barely, if at all, committed to the non-agreement. Rather, it is poised to receive international sanctions relief while continuing on its belligerent course.

QOTD: "With control of -- or a significant presence in -- roughly 30 percent of districts across the nation, according to Western and Afghan officials, the Taliban now holds more territory than in any year since 2001, when the puritanical Islamists were ousted from power after the 9/11 attacks. For now, the top American and Afghan priority is preventing Helmand, largely secured by U.S. Marines and British forces in 2012, from again falling to the insurgency.

As of last month, about 7,000 members of the Afghan security forces had been killed this year, with 12,000 injured, a 26 percent increase over the total number of dead and wounded in all of 2014, said a Western official with access to the most recent NATO statistics. Attrition rates are soaring. Deserters and injured Afghan soldiers say they are fighting a more sophisticated and well-armed insurgency than they have seen in years." -- Sudarsan Raghavan

GREAT NEWS: Crime-Free, Gun-Free Illinois Beta-Testing Gun Confiscation Law, Overriding Second Amendment!

Three Chicago-area Democrat state legislators have introduced a resolution petitioning the Supreme Court to overturn its Heller ruling, which found that the Second Amendment (like the rest of the Bill of Rights) applies to individuals, not some collective.

Representatives Emanuel Welch, Pamela Reaves-Harris, and Jaime Andrade, Jr. are behind the resolution and claim that Chicago's epidemic of gun violence is due to insufficient gun control laws, claiming that "The Heller decision and other pro-firearm industry court rulings have resulted in a proliferation of guns in numerous communities and have diminished the security and freedom of our citizens to enjoy a life free of gun violence.”

The representatives fail to explain how Chicago, which historically has the most restrictive gun laws in the United States, has seen more than 2,000 people shot in 2015 alone, almost all of the violence gang- and drug-related shootings. The resolution, which reads as though it was crafted by an enemy of America, reads as follows:

SEEMS FAIR: EPA Sends 185 to Prison for "Environmental Crimes" as its Own Toxic Spills Go Unpunished

By Michael Bastasch

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enforcers helped convict 185 Americans of environmental crimes this year, with each of these eco-convicts getting sentenced to eight months in prison on average for crimes ranging from biofuel fraud to illegally removing asbestos.

EPA enforcement data for 2015 shows the agency opened 213 environmental cases which resulted in 185 people convicted and sentenced to 129 years in prison. EPA has been opening fewer cases in recent years to focus more on “high impact” cases.

These Are The Most Persecuted People in the World

By Bill Warner

The most persecuted group in the world today is Christians. Christians in Nigeria, Egypt, Syria and other nations are murdered, raped, kidnapped, enslaved and persecuted on a daily basis. The reason for the vast majority of all of this violence is that they are Christians among Muslims.

But their abuse does not stop with the violence. The perpetrators of violence are measured in the thousands, but the greatest abuse is at the hands of those who should demand that the violence stop. The silence in the face this persecution is denial and justification. The persecutors are few, but the deniers are in the billions.
