The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

One More Jump …

Posted on | May 16, 2013 | 43 Comments

Well, I had hoped the nerve-wracking worry would be over last night. My Army son’s training battalion did their first jump Monday, then two more jumps Tuesday — the second in combat gear — and were scheduled for two jumps Thursday, the last one a night jump. But that one got cancelled, so the fifth jump is today. Or, actually, tonight.

Private McCain called Tuesday night and, after talking to Mom a while, talked to me and told me stuff he didn’t want to tell Mom, who worries enough for the whole family. Attrition due to injuries is not uncommon in Jump Week. By the time they finished the third jump, Private McCain said, they’d subtracted about 20 troops, mostly because of sprained ankles, but also two or three broken legs and at least one concussion. Additionally, there were a couple “refused jumps,” which boggled my son’s mind: “You make it this far and then, you won’t jump?”

Fearless, he is. Or maybe just crazy — hereditary.

Anyway, on Tuesday’s second jump, there was one scary moment. My son was originally Number 15 in his “chalk” of 30, which meant he would be first man out the door, but attrition changed the jump order, so on this jump, he was last man in line. The plane ride was unusually rough and my son says as he was moving toward the door in combat gear (which weighs about 60 pounds), he nearly fell over.

Fortunately, he maintained his balance, made it to the door and jumped, but then there was some more drama on the way down, as another trooper drifted down on top of my son’s chute, which can be potentially disastrous. Yet this is evidently a common enough problem that they study it in training and know what to do, so the other trooper basically ran across my son’s chute, and they both then veered in different directions. Anyway, between that and other hassles (untangling his lines, another common problem), my son’s descent was such that he couldn’t quite undo the latch to drop his (dummy) rifle in time before landing.

So he landed with the rifle, which can sometimes result in injury but this time did not. Thank God.

Five times they’ve got to succeed at this during Jump Week.

Each jump, somebody gets injured — for the most part, as I say, just sprained ankles, but that’s not a successful jump, and more serious injuries are more common than a dad wants to think about.

And he’s 18X, so failing Airborne School is not an option.

One more jump tonight, and then Graduation Day, we pray.

President Cosmic Lightworker Expresses Disappointment in Mere Mortals at IRS

Posted on | May 15, 2013 | 15 Comments

“Obama: Anatomy of a World Leader,” by Alex Gray (detail)

“Difficult as it may now be to recall, there were once ‘spiritually advanced people’ who looked at this Chicago machine politician and saw ‘a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being . . . who can actually help usher in a new way of being on the planet.’”
— Robert Stacy McCain, Oct. 25, 2012


Do not question His Divine Wrath at the career IRS guy who has only been “acting commissioner” since November and drew the short straw:

President Obama said the acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service resigned Wednesday and promised that he “will not tolerate” the types of abuses reported by the agency’s inspector general. Speaking from the East Room of the White House, the president promised to “hold the responsible parties accountable” and said the administration “will work with Congress” on their investigations.
The agency’s acting commissioner, Steven Miller blamed two “rogue” employees in the Cincinnati IRS office for targeting conservative groups, but Obama said that Treasury Secretary Jack Lew had requested and received Miller’s resignation Wednesday. The political abuses were “inexcusable,” the president said. …

Inexcusable, “rogue employees,” to get caught targeting the Enemies List: Tea Party, Christians, assorted People Not Down for the Agenda.

Inexcusable, and it would have been even worse, if we had known about this at some point prior to November 6, but . . . hey, Lightworker.

One of the things about covering this stuff as a journalist is that it’s so predictable, it’s not exactly what you’d call “news,” eh?

Cynical? No, just not a complete sucker. Who ever really believed a word they said in the first place? They’re Democrats: People of the Lie.

“What’s that wonderful smell? Ah, unicorn farts!“

ObamaGate Scandal Mania!

Posted on | May 14, 2013 | 19 Comments

“Obama: Anatomy of a World Leader,” by Alex Gray (detail)

Ed Morrissey’s headline at The Week summarizes the situation:

A flood of scandals engulfs Obama

It’s not only engulfing Obama, it’s engulfing me and everybody else who’s trying to keep up with all this stuff. Easy to become confused:

Recent headlines from Viral Read:

IRS Admits Wrongly Targeting Tea Party Groups

Marriage Group Accuses IRS
of Leaking Information to ‘Political Enemies,’
Demands Explanation from Agency

South Carolina Tea Party Mom

Jon Stewart Flips Out Over

Reporter Who Interviewed President
Obama: IRS ‘Hammering Me’

Jay Carney ‘Unfettered’
White House Press Conference

IRS Inspector General’s Report Released:
‘Inappropriate Criteria’ Used Against
Conservative Groups; Nearly 300 Were Targeted

President Obama Reacts to IRS
Inspector General’s Report:
‘Intolerable and Inexcusable’

What’s truly intolerable and inexcusable is that all of this is happening at once, with new developments all day, every day, until Scandal Fatigue sets in and it’s impossible to keep up with even a fraction of it. So, yeah, it’s engulfing Obama and engulfing us, too.

UPDATE: Dear Lord, there’s still more:

Last week, the Benghazi talking points took center stage in the ongoing investigation of the 9/11 anniversary attacks in Libya. Jay Carney came under intense questioning at Friday’s White House press briefing as he struggled to justify a dozen iterations of talking points before Susan Rice used the final version for her now-infamous five Sunday talk show appearances on September 16, 2012. However, a background briefing by the State Department four days before Rice’s appearances provides the earliest extended look at the information used to prepare those talking points.

You really need to read the whole thing. Me, I’ve barely got time to skim half this stuff. My bedtime reading tonight will be 54 pages entitled, “Inappropriate Criteria Were Used to Identify Tax-Exempt Applications for Review,” by Michael E. McKenny. Sweet dreams.

‘People Need to Be Sent to Jail’

Posted on | May 14, 2013 | 16 Comments

“Our goal is for ‘We the People’ to be an educated and informed electorate, involved in our government, and working with and holding our elected representatives accountable to their oath of office to uphold the Constitution.”
— Laurens County (S.C.) Tea Party mission statement

In 2009, Diane Belsom was one of millions of Americans who answered the rallying cry of the Tea Party movement:

“After Obama was elected, I was devastated. And they were calling for Tea Party rallies, and I said, ‘I don’t know what I’m doing but I’ll figure it out and I’ll do one,’ so I did.”

A homeschooling mom in Laurens, South Carolina, Belsom started a local Tea Party group that held its first rally in April 2009. She became involved in networking with other activists who told her she should incorporate the group and apply for non-profit status. Nearly three years after she filed her application — and after she complied with burdensome, intrusive and, in some cases, redundant requests for additional information — Belsom still has not received word on whether the group’s 501(c)4 status will be approved.

The experience of the Laurens County Tea Party was replicated for dozens of other groups across the country. We now know why.

Lauren Belsom and her fellow patriots were victimized by an Internal Revenue Service that deliberately and systematically targeted President Obama’s political opponents for harassment:

“I think people need to be held accountable,” said Belsom, who has contacted her congressman, Republican Rep. Jeff Duncan, to complain about her group’s problems with the IRS.
“We’re supposed to be living in a republic, not some kind of totalitarian system,” she said. “People need to be sent to jail if they’ve broken laws or, at a minimum, fired.”
