Can anyone rid this pope of his troublesome ignorance?
Writing at Breitbart, Ben Shapiro writes a devastating critique of Pope Francis’ statements during his Juarez rally “Operation Overload” priming the troops for invasion.
Pope Francis Rips Capitalism, American Immigration Policy at Mexican Border
Pope Francis, apparently desperate to reach out to the Catholic Church’s growing base in Latin America, spent the day slapping Americans in the face from across the US-Mexico border.
In Ciudad Juarez, one of the most violent cities in the Western Hemisphere thanks to the drug cartels, the pope walked up a ramp covered in flowers toward a cross “erected… in memory of migrants who have perished trying to reach the United States just a stone’s throw away,” according to Reuters.
Funny, he never did that while visiting Cuba to pay tribute to those who died attempting to escape that Communist hellhole. He reserved his spite for a nation with one of the most generous immigration policies on the planet. . . .
. . . the pope said that capitalism cut against God, and that God would punish “slave drivers of our days” supposedly exploiting workers, adding, “The flow of capital cannot decide the flow of people.”
This is, simply put, asinine.
The reason for the humanitarian crisis driving people north is the corrupt anti-capitalist governance so common to Latin America – the same sort of governance the pope believes is apparently more godly than the capitalism drawing people like a magnet to the United States. So the same system the pope decries is the system the pope wants inundated with victims of those who oppose that system. How ironic. Even more ironic: the Vatican remains one of the most immigration-restrictive states on earth.

Former Tea Party candidates find love in all the wrong establishments
Nikki now just loves Marco
Just last month, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley was quoted in the Washington Post saying: “Marco Rubio believes in amnesty, which I don’t.” She later walked back the comments when it was clear she had caused problems for the Rubio campaign in South Carolina.
So was she “blandishing the truth” then or now?
Tea Party parrots like those two squawk the squawk election time but do they walk the walk? From Leo Hohmann writing at WND: South Carolina governor sued for importing Muslims
. . . it has become apparent to South Carolina conservatives, including many who voted for Haley, that she is a supporter of Obama’s drive to convert millions of recent immigrants into “new Americans” by the time he leaves office, using not only the United Nations refugee pipeline but also a steady influx of illegal immigrants from Central America.

Haley has supported the president’s plan to bring in refugees from jihadist hotspots like Syria and Iraq, the activists say, while also quietly embracing Obama’s resettlement of illegal Central American children in their state, using the family courts to secretly place them in communities without their knowledge or approval.

Fred Barnes writes in the Wall Street Journal Thursday:
“the split between party leaders and a substantial number of party voters emerged after Republicans won the House in the 2010 midterm election, and swelled when they added the Senate in 2014. Their legislative gains were minimal. THE REPUBLICAN BASE, EGGED ON BY CONSERVATIVE TALK RADIO, ACC– USED CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS OF KNUCKLING UNDER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA. THUS THE NOTION OF BETRAYAL.” (caps ours)
You get that? “their legislative gains were minimal”. This, after promising to use the power of the purse” to stop the Obama lawlessness and perversion of the Constitution!. “gains…minimal”! The Mitch, John (“Boner”), Paulie (Ryan)-led Congress didn’t just “achieve “minimal” gains, Obama made “maximum gains”, thanks to these clowns. Yet, according to Barnes, “the Republicans are “campaigning to lose”, all because ‘talk radio’ has egged on the base with this “notion of betrayal”.
Jeb, whatever happened to that ‘win without the base’ strategy? how’s that workin’ out?
According to the Washington Post:
Jeb Bush confronted like never before by worried supporters
He’s stuck in the polls and just lost a major endorsement. And now voters are in open panic about the fate of Jeb Bush.
The Republican presidential candidate was barraged by conflicting advice from supporters increasingly distressed by the rise of GOP front-runner Donald Trump and that the former Florida governor’s campaign has stalled.
One guy urged him to talk more about his compassion. Another told him to take Trump’s attacks on the chin and stay substantive. A third man urged him to work harder to spread the word nationally.
The Jeb
“Stalled’ they say, maybe Jeb is like the Edsel of candidates . . . lots of money behind another favorite son concept — “The flop heard round the world.”
“Significant Breakthroughs”! WOW!
Gowdy: Benghazi committee has made ‘significant breakthroughs’
Maybe a little cynicism is in order here. Trey been at this a long time, and we’ve heard several times that he’s on the verge of significant breakthroughs.
This story from the Washington examiner has a “significant” mis-statement”: ” The select committee was the first to uncover Clinton’s use of a personal server.” (Actually, it was the efforts of Judicial Watch that led to the information about Hillary’s use of a personal server.)
DLH
Hillary’s not suffering from “post-concussion syndrome”;
“confusion…dizziness…”? She’s been suffering from mindless liberalism for years and current Democratic Party ‘doctrinism’: “from each according to his ability, to each according to his need”
