This is what Pravda said, on Nov. 19, 2012, about those who voted for Obama and about him:
"Recently, Obama has been re-elected for a 2nd term by an illiterate society and he is ready to continue his lies of less taxes while he raises them. . .
He is a Communist without question promoting the Communist Manifesto without calling it so. . .
His cult of personality mesmerizes those who cannot go beyond their ignorance. They will continue to follow him like those fools who still praise Lenin and Stalin in Russia.
"Obama's fools and Stalin's fools share the same drink of illusion."

Before the Republicans and anti-marxist forces celebrate the downturn of Obama's "numbers" during the past 168 hours, due to his overplaying the sequester-tsunami-of-tragedies card, please remember that the low intelligence and low information type voters have a memory chip that runs out of non-replaceable battery power in about 72 hours.

Admiral Samuel J. Locklear III met privately with security
and foreign policy specialists at Harvard and Tufts
universities Thursday and Friday.
CAMBRIDGE — America’s top military officer in charge of monitoring hostile actions by North Korea, escalating tensions between China and Japan, and a spike in computer attacks traced to China provides an unexpected answer when asked what is the biggest long-term security threat in the Pacific region: climate change.
Navy Admiral Samuel J. Locklear III, in an interview at a Cambridge hotel Friday after he met with scholars at Harvard and Tufts universities, said significant upheaval related to the warming planet “is probably the most likely thing that is going to happen . . . that will cripple the security environment, probably more likely than the other scenarios we all often talk about.’’
“People are surprised sometimes,” he added, describing the reaction to his assessment. “You have the real potential here in the not-too-distant future of nations displaced by rising sea level. Certainly weather patterns are more severe than they have been in the past. We are on super typhoon 27 or 28 this year in the Western Pacific. The average is about 17.”
Locklear said his Hawaii-based headquarters — which is assigned more than 400,00 military and civilian personnel and is responsible for operations from California to India, is working with Asian nations to stockpile supplies in strategic locations and planning a major exercise for May with nearly two dozen countries to practice the “what-ifs.”
Locklear’s two-day visit to New England, which included meetings with students at the Naval War College in Newport, R.I., coincides with the Obama’ administration’s recent “pivot” to Asia — the recalibration of national security strategy after more than decade of war in the Middle East to reemphasize a region with rising military and economic powers such as China and India and where most US trade links are.
In closed-door discussions Thursday and Friday, Locklear met with security and foreign policy specialists, including the Harvard Kennedy School’s Graham Allison, who directs the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, and Asia specialist Joseph Nye Jr..
Nye said he briefed Locklear on a trip he made last fall at the behest of the Department of State to meet with the top leaders of China and Japan to urge them to peacefully settle the disputes over islands in the South and East China Seas.
China last month was accused of directing one of its navy radars at a Japanese warship near the islands where both countries assert sovereignty and claims to fishing and mineral rights. It came several weeks after Japan said China took similar action with one of its military helicopters.
“We have an ongoing number of disputes,” Locklear said. “It is not just about China and everybody else, because there are disputes between other partners down there, too. Sometimes I think the Chinese get handled a little too roughly on this.
“What we are concerned most about,” he added, “is that they work through these things.”
A larger concern is North Korea, which in recent days has threatened to launch a nuclear weapon against the United States. Following Pyongyang’s recent long-range missile launch and underground nuclear test, the United Nations Security Council on Thursday voted unanimously to tighten sanctions on the reclusive Communist regime. In response the North Korean government threatened to nullify its nonaggression pacts with South Korea, where the United States maintains a military presence.
Locklear said North Korea’s military has taken recent steps to “visibly increase their levels of readiness” along the demilitarized zone that has separated the two Koreas since the armistice halting the Korean War in 1953. “We are watching very closely what’s going on and we are prepared to defend the alliance as well as our homeland,” he said.
In the interview, he stressed the need for a global set of guidelines for the Internet and cyberspace, which he called the modern version of the 19th century’s “Wild West,” where “the only security you brought with you was what you carried on you.”
“We made cyberspace as kind of an ungoverned territory . . . and we haven’t been able to get our arms around how to govern it yet,” Locklear added.
But when it comes to pragmatic military planning, Locklear said he is increasingly focused on another highly destabilizing force.
“The ice is melting and sea is getting higher,” Locklear said, noting that 80 percent of the world’s population lives within 200 miles of the coast. “I’m into the consequence management side of it. I’m not a scientist, but the island of Tarawa in Kiribati, they’re contemplating moving their entire population to another country because [it] is not going to exist anymore.”
The US military, he said, is beginning to reach out to other armed forces in the region about the issue.
“We have interjected into our multilateral dialogue – even with China and India – the imperative to kind of get military capabilities aligned [for] when the effects of climate change start to impact these massive populations,” he said. “If it goes bad, you could have hundreds of thousands or millions of people displaced and then security will start to crumble pretty quickly.’’

This kind of talk from the highest ranking commander in the Pacific Theatre bodes ill for the American reality. El Gringo Viejo
The old expressions are frequently the best impressions.
So, we will employ the old admonishment, but with a slight variation. It goes,"Fool me once, Shame on Barry. Fool me millions and billions of times, for real....shame on me." Repeat Oh! mighty Senators. Barry Soetoro is a mendacious, marxist who relies on shallow phrases and postures to fool a large body of the electorate that has limited abilities in terms of deduction, discernment, and comprehension. Do not be the straight men for this comedy act.
The "charm offencive" executed by the Manchurian Poseur is drawn from a script that is inspired by a focus group of dullards. It follows one of the latest of the failures of the focus-group-before-last that gave the White House the unsound notion that it would be able to scare the beejeebies out of the low IQ and information people and the dumboes who think that a minuscule tightening of the Central Government's budget would result in granny starving to death as she goes over the cliff in her wheelchair.
The president was unrelenting with his threats that children would be unattended, that burro meat would replace good American beef...and it would be rancid burro meat. He was careful to point out that crippled children would not be able to go to Head Start where they could have free food, and their braces and crutches would be melted down to provide hull reinforcement for the yachts of the millionaires and billionaires. Worst of all was that the White House would have to close because there was no money to provide services for the basic White House tour for the "commoners". So, to make up for all of that....the "charm offencives". The words"charm" and "marxist" are not often found together in the same gulag. The thought of equating a teleprompter reading, Saul Linsky robot with something "charming" seems even a bit perverse, if not downright repulsive. When the Manchurian Poseur arranged the night out with the White Boys and Girl at the Jefferson Hotel, El Gringo Viejo was very hopeful that they would understand that they should say, "No, Mr. Soetoro, I am pretty busy. Come by to-morrow and see my calendar keeper. She might be able to work you in sometime during the week. And we'll meet at my office, with witnesses of my choosing, and everything will be filmed and taped. And, the answer is 'no' to any new taxes or 'revenue enhancements', and 'yes' to tax cuts to impulse economic activity, and 'yes' to cancellation of any implementation of the Socialised Medicine Offencive".
We forget the name of this particular ursine specimen, but he was in counselling for several months after encountering Joe Biden and his double-barrelled shotgun. Some unfortunate misunderstanding about something pertaining to a picnic basket.
Fool me once, shame on you....Fool me a million, billion times shame on me. You all looked like a bunch of fools going to such an affair. What was to be gained? Are you going to make Miss Fluke think that she can and should pay for her own birth control pills? Or are you still willing to bargain with Barry about charging it on to my granddaughters to pay?
Answers to the name of Boo Boo and wanted for collusion with Bear Known as ''Yogi"
The charm offencive was so patently an effort to recover from the dead-dog drop in Barry Soetoro's polling, and the roaring with laughter in every saloon and beauty parlour in America about how and 1.5% "cut" ....(reduction in the rate of growth, actually) would cause grandmothers throughout the nation to be found frozen to death in front of the cracked saucer with the empty can of cat food turned on its side....all the grandmothers...frozen to death. All the forest rangers eaten by the bears because there was no money for bullets for the park rangers guns and there was no money to buy the Bears their special IAMs BearFood Delight, especially made for "indoor Bears".....The bears had to eat something, and the NRA is hoarding all the bullets....and the lines were too long at the airport for any resupply to make it to the Park Rangers in time to do any good.....Whew! Can you all imagine? And all those pink slips to all those teachers? And everything!!?? Even during these hours, it is becoming clear that the little pretender with no passport, and no transcripts, and no work history is still crying "Wolf, wolf! There's a wolf coming to your door!!" And the spoiled little boy and all his sycophants and entourage will be going to Martha's Vineyard soon, where they can rub elbows with the swells. How many Air Force Ones and Twos and Threes will be required will depend on HRH Michelle....and her willingness to condescend to fly on the same plane as her husband. The rumour is that Michelle's mother does not like to fly, and so they are arranging an 9 car train for the AMTRAK to run, for the mother-in-law and her basic retinue. Nothing special.....beyond the dining car for one, and saloon car for one, and the observatory car for one, and then the six limousines for one to make the transfer from Boston to Cape Cod. They are going to take over the entire Chappaquiddick Memorial Motel 6, just for Michelle's mother. Mrs. Robinson is schuduled to play cribbage and canasta with Barry's Auntie Zietuni Obama and Uncle Omar Onyango Obama during these days of Global Warming and Cooling. Mrs. Robinson can inquire about how their deportation appeals are going. GRRRRRRrrrrrrrr.......Republican Senators....Just because the band is playing does not mean you have to dance. Thank you very much. Your move. El Gringo Viejo
This is the same Moran who took possession of the tape that two people made by intercepting Newt Gingrich's private, telephonic transmissions...."accidentally". Moran turned the tapes over to the then Mainstream Media people so as to show the horrid, conspiratorial nature of the then Speaker of the House. The tapes and the taping were and are still a form of serious felony, as was the further distribution of said tapes, but, of course, Moran is a hypocritical, weasel (enter any number of horrid names) and there was no prosecution of anyone....because, as we know, all actions by Democrats, progressives, and marxists are pure, innocent, and for the greater good of the downtrodden, the children, the funny-looking people, lesbian Canadian lobster fisherpersons, and minorities everywhere. Moran also had a problem of his own because he kinda-like, you know, sent a staff aide back from the airport with his briefcase, one time, because he did not need the briefcase on the flight. Problem? Well, it seems like there was a pistol in the briefcase...no permitting or anything....in Washington, D.C. where the gun laws were and are draconian. The staffer was hung with the collar when he went through the metal detectors back at the Capitol building. Moran blamed his memory lapse, after first denying everything and anything about the incidence involving him. We think it is referred to as the Mary Jo Kopechne - Vince Foster - Benghazi Rule.

The Falkland Islands and South
Georgia and South Sandwich Islands are British Overseas Territories
(Paul Byrne/ Associated Press ) - The governor of Falkland Islands Nigel Haywood posses for a picture in Port Stanley, Falkland Islands, Monday, March 11, 2013. The local Falkland Islands Government has mobilized a major effort to get registered voters to answer a yes-or-no to the referendum: “Do you wish the Falkland Islands to retain their current political status as an Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom?” scheduled for March 10-11, 2013.

STANLEY, Falkland Islands — Falkland Islands voters decided by an overwhelming 99.8 percent margin Monday to keep their government just the way it is: a British Overseas Territory.
Of the 1,517 valid votes cast in the referendum, only 3 islanders voted “no” to the question: “Do you wish the Falkland Islands to retain their current political status as an Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom?” One vote was somehow lost.
The vote was aimed at showing that the residents’ self-determination must be considered in any discussion about the future of the remote South Atlantic islands that are claimed by both Britain and Argentina.
Elections officials reported a 92 percent turnout among the approximately 1,650 Falkland Islands voters eligible to cast ballots in the referendum. International election observer Juan Henao said the process was completely normal.
The islands’ 2,563 residents did all they could ahead of the vote to show their sympathies, waving Union Jack flags and dressing up in red-white-and-blue.
“The referendum will show the world how we feel, that we are British and that we wish to remain British. We don’t want to have nothing to do with Argentina, at all,” islander Barry Nielson said as he voted.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It should be noted that the Argentine Government advised, suggested, and at times demanded that all Latin American governments avoid sending observers to the election. Many complied, usually because they were not that interested anyway, while some just do not have the money required to spend on other people's windmills to joust. Two nations defied Presidente Cristina.
Chile and Mexico. ADDENDA: Several conservative political parties in Latin American countries throughout Central and South America sent observers to the Falkland electoral process. Paraguay, Colombia (conservative party, informal presence), Peru, Venezuela (informal, conservative party), and some others, but we are not clear about the names of the countries, yet. Chile's and Mexico's delegations were formal and, without saying so, preemptive
The night of the Benghazi attack spoke volumes concerning the kind of Linsky, marxist, narcissist Barak Obama is. While Americans were being slaughtered, Obama was resting up for a hard trip via Air Force One to Las Vegas for a fund raiser and a campaign rally, departing early the next morning.
It was critical that no boat-rocking be permitted during these last days of a campaign that had gone on forever, and that had seen the examples of the worst demagoguery in recent times...perhaps in all times. The Presidential elections of 1800 and 1860, along with the Lyndon B. Johnson - Democrat - Mainstream Media smear of Barry Goldwater in 1964 were high water marks, but the 2012, the onslaught of lies by major figures from Harry Reid to Obama himself and the Obsolete Media must have been record setting.
Of great importance during the closing hours of the campaign was to leave the stupid, the uninformed, and the committed marxists/progressives a lot of yawning room concerning the issue of radical Islamist terrorism and efforts to extend the New Caliphate by means of terrorism; or "General Motors Lives and Al Qaeda is dead". All people with an IQ higher than a paramecium knew immediately that the attack on the Benghazi facility was a co-ordinated, military extension of a militarised terrorist group.
When Obama, and EVERY ONE OF HIS IMMEDIATELY INVOLVED SUBORDINATES, came forward with the story of the violence in Egypt and Libya being the result of normal, heated reaction to an amateur video on YouTube, anyone who could actually find their own house key without the assistance of a grief counsellor knew the falsity of that position. It was patently obvious that the situation was complex, that the situation involved under-the-table intrigue, and the situation involved massive incompetence and/or Obama collusion.
The ever-present fact is that Obama wants America to lose. He desires that America atone, but only after being forced to atone. He lives to hate America. He has been taught since he was in early primary that America invented slavery, exploitation, and imperialism. So, he could literally sleep through Benghazi, because after all, he had something much more important to do to-morrow morning.

Below, please find the pictures of Lieutenant General Carter Ham and Admiral Gaouette. Attached is a blurb from a scuttlebutt mag that deals with matter interior to the Department of Defence. This is what the people in uniform are understanding based on the hard gossip. The two cited publications have a good record of accuracy with reference to their "rumour and gossip" processing.
ooo000OOO000ooo
Where are Gen Carter Ham and Adm Charles Gaouette?
(and what difference does it make?)
General Carter Ham Presently being held at Bremerton, Washington
The latest rumor making the rounds is that Barack Obama replaced General Carter Ham at AFRICOM after the general made a move to help the US security officials at the Benghazi consulate and annex. Ham was replaced by Gen. David Rodriquez on October 18.
The information I heard today was that General [Carter] Ham as head of Africom received the same e-mails the White House received requesting help/support as the attack was taking place. General Ham immediately had a rapid response unit ready and communicated to the Pentagon that he had a unit ready.
General Ham then received the order to stand down. His response was to screw it, he was going to help anyhow. Within 30 seconds to a minute after making the move to respond, his second in command apprehended General Ham and told him that he was now relieved of his command.
The story continues that now General Rodriguez would take General Ham’s place as the head of Africom.
Sure enough Obama nominated Gen. David Rodriguez to replace Gen. Carter Ham as commander of U.S. Africa Command. The Stars and Stripes reported:
President Barack Obama will nominate Army Gen. David Rodriguez to succeed Gen. Carter Ham as commander of U.S. Africa Command and Marine Lt. Gen. John Paxton to succeed Gen. Joseph Dunford as assistant commandant of the Marine Corps, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta announced Thursday. (El Gringo Viejo notes that Rodriquez has already been posted to the position. As of this date there is still no news of General Ham, in any publicly retrievable sense.)

(before being relieved of command)
The Obama Administration also relieved the admiral in command of an aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East, Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette. It is highly unusual for the Navy to replace a carrier strike group commander during its deployment.
The Navy said Saturday it is replacing the admiral in command of an aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East, pending the outcome of an internal investigation into undisclosed allegations of inappropriate judgment.
Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette is being sent back to the USS John C. Stennis’ home port at Bremerton, Wash., in what the Navy called a temporary reassignment. The Navy said he is not formally relieved of his command of the Stennis strike group but will be replaced by Rear Adm. Troy M. Shoemaker, who will assume command until the investigation is completed.
It is highly unusual for the Navy to replace a carrier strike group commander during its deployment.

El Gringo Viejo observes:
The scuttlebutt concerning Admiral Gaouette is that he is being investigated for being an associate of a group of middle and high level military officers, working in concert with "extremists in the Tea Party, the Republican Party, and certain private companies" to the end that they might force a resignation by the President of the United States, for various an sundry reasons.
The charges against Gaouette are probably going to be reduced to "deriliction and insubordination", due to the fact that the Admiral was preparing to lift-off heavily armed air assets from his command, to go to the aid of those under assault in Benghazi. He remains, along with General Ham...apparently incommunicado....still at Bremerton. As the days go by, there is no doubt that both Ham and Gaouette are being "conditioned" to either say nothing upon departure from the service, or to parrot a hypno-line that will avoid involving Obama in any culpability concerning the Benghazi or any of a number of other War related issues.
