Dick Cheney Suggests White House Acts Like, It Is Trying To Bring Down America



Former Vice President Dick Cheney

[From article]
In an appearance on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” Tuesday night, former Vice President Dick Cheney said that President Obama’s actions on the world stage exemplify a president who wants “to take America down.”
Cheney also touched on Obama’s comments on Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, telling Hewitt that Obama is the only post-World War II president to believe that America doesn’t need “to play a leading role in the world.”
[. . .]
For most of the last 70 years since World War II, we’ve had a bipartisan record in this country between Democrat and Republican. [Presidents] believed America had to play a leading role in the world and needs to maintain first class military capability to do that and occasionally use it. That the world works best with U.S. leadership. The first president, really, who doesn’t — no longer believe that fundamental truth is Barack Obama.
[. . .]
If you had somebody who, as president — who wanted to take America down. Who wanted to fundamentally weaken our position in the world, reduce our capacity to influence events. Turn our back on our allies and encourage our enemies, it would look exactly like what Barack Obama is doing. I think his actions are constituted in my mind are those of the worst president we’ve ever had.

Biden Shows Romantic Skills At Swearing In Ceremony



Biden also took a firm grip on the woman’s shoulders.

[From article]Tuesday, at Defense Sec. Ash Carter‘s swearing-in ceremony, Biden got all touchy feely with Carter’s wife, Stephanie. From the pictures, it looks like he’s whispering sweet nothings into her right ear. He’s also getting a good whiff of her shampoo.
Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt: Perhaps he was trying to be comforting after her spill on the ice at the Pentagon this morning while she was accompanying her husband on his first day on the job.

Vice Presdient Lectures Human Rights Activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali About Islam



Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Human Rights Activist

[From article]
In a recent interview with the Washington Examiner, human rights activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali discussed the “real war on women” being conducted by adherents to radical Islam and the need for the American left to acknowledge that reality. During the conversation, Hirsi Ali recalled a particularly telling encounter she had with Vice President Joe Biden in which he attempted to correct her on “one or two things about Islam."
Hirsi Ali explained to the Examiner that in the left’s attempts to protect anyone they perceive as “victims of the white man,” they have failed to look honestly at the true war on women waged by radical Muslims.
“They feel all religions are the same, and they’re not,” she said. “I think if I adopt the position in good faith to multiculturalists and leftists, I would say [they take the position they do] because they see them [Muslims] as victims. They see them as victims of the white man and so they think: ‘Let’s protect them from the white man. Let’s protect them from capitalism.’… That is misguided at best and malicious at worst.”
[. . .]
“Wherever [Islamists] gain power, you see exactly what they do: The first thing they do is they chase women out of the public space, force them to cover up, beat them up, rape them, sell them into slavery,” said Hirsi Ali.
[. . .]
At a dinner in Washington, Biden attempted to correct her perspective on relationship between the Islamic State and Islam, saying, “ISIS had nothing to do with Islam.” When she pushed back, Biden said, “Let me tell you one or two things about Islam…”
“I politely left the conversation at that,” Hirsi Ali said. “I wasn’t used to arguing with vice presidents.”
As the Examiner outlines, Hirsi Ali’s knowledge of the realities of Islam is rooted in her own traumatic experiences. At age 5 in her home country Somalia, she was subjected to female genital mutilation while her father, who objected to the practice, was in prison. After her father escaped, he moved the family to Saudi Arabia, then Ethiopia, then finally Kenya when she was 11. Though Hirsi Ali was raised a practicing Muslim, when her family attempted to force her into an arranged marriage, she fled to the Netherlands.
Even in Europe, however, she found that she was not safe. After earning a seat in parliament, her outspoken criticism of Islam eventually resulted in the murder of a filmmaker, Theo van Gogh, with whom she produced a short film on the abuse of women under Islam. A letter including death threats against Hirsi Ali was pinned to van Gogh’s dead body with a knife. The human rights activist must now travel under the constant protection of a security detail.

He said that the Vice President is an executive position but the
Senate website says it is legislative also. The VP votes in cases of
tie votes, and presides over the Senate.
