Is This Syrian Opposition Leader al-Khatib Really Trustworthy for the U.S.?

Sec. of State Kerry, left and Mouaz al-Khatib,
Syrian opposition leader


From Denny:  Today, newly minted Sec. of State Kerry met with the one man the West hopes can create a way to end the civil war mess in Syria where President Assad has massacred countless thousands of his own people.

Far too many are children Assad chose to torture and then kill, throwing their bodies out like garbage for their parents to see.  Of course, this idiot actually thought those heinous acts would intimidate the people, instilling fear for their leader, when all it did was convince them to fight harder to topple him.

Meanwhile, the West, especially America, has been desperately seeking one man who can unite all the various disorganized and disparate factions who are fighting their own tyrannical government.  Today's situation must be a lot like it was when Americans were fighting the British in the early years of the American Revolution when the other European countries were unsure with whom to talk and if it was wise to arm them.

Now, enter on to the world stage this Sunni Muslim geophysics engineer and Islamic preacher who supposedly professes equality for women, political plurality and does not want foreign military intervention.  He sure talks a good game.  Anyone remember Ahmed Chalabi from Iraq?  While this man, Mouaz al-Khatib may not be as oily or as greedy as VP Cheney's Chalabi, can we really trust him?


The perfect mug to describe the Middle East political mess:

Irish BS Men's Baseball Jersey



Warriors Pearl Foundation: New Funny St. Patricks Day Design: Irish BS: From Denny:  Ever heard of "Irish Obedience Training?"  Yeah, me neither!  Because we all know the Irish storytellers are irrepressible - and full of mischief like their fabled leprechauns.  Sport your amusing support of all the frivolity and green beer on St. Patrick's Day with this new look from denny lyon designs at Cafe Press.  Plenty of other products available in this design so you have plenty to choose from over at Denny Lyon Gifts!

The proceeds go to help support those groups who are housing and helping homeless female military veterans get off the streets.  Denny Lyon (yeah, that's me) is a journalist-blogger (so bored with homogenized news I started my own blogs just to entertain myself and my readers!), photographer and Louisiana artist intensely interested in social issues.

I saw a news report on NBC News, Nightly News with Brian Williams, about the more than 5,000 homeless female military vets that the Pentagon was not helping so I decided to start this fund raising effort over at Cafe Press (Denny Lyon Gifts) to help raise funds for the women.  The majority of these former female vets end up on the streets because of PTSD from being raped while serving in the military....

Hassled Chuck Hagel Won Vote, Starts 1st Day as Sec. of Defense

Chuck Hagel--the new Secretary of Defense-- does a victory lap after trouncing the Rabid Right that tried too hard to trump up a case against him


From Denny:  After a nasty and outrageously contentious beatdown from his fellow Republicans intent on punishing him for publicly disagreeing with Bush 43's Iraq War, Chuck Hagel found at least four Republicans willing to vote for him yesterday.

Dennys Funny Quotes: Comic Jimmy Kimmels Plan To Save The U.S. Post Office




Dennys Funny Quotes: Comic Jimmy Kimmels Plan To Save The U.S. Post Office: From Denny:  These are outrageous times.  To really save the post office and pull it out of huge debt is to start sending snail mail cards, letters and packages.  Really?

Well, yeah, that obvious tactic would work and is a sensible one. After all, the post office lost over $1 billion just in the last quarter of 2012 - and that included the holiday season of which they apparently did not get much of a share of the business.

But what debt answer would be a lot more creative and fun?  Comic Jimmy Kimmel has the answer.  He advocates the President legalize marijuana and then put the U.S. Post Office to be the only guys who can deliver it.  Outrageous?  Maybe, uh, hmmm.... it's actually a monopoly idea that would work!  Yay! Capitalism at work!  :)

Save The Economy: How Prez Obama Can Push GOP to Settle Sequestration Now

Sequestration - How Would it Impact the Everyday Lives of Americans?

From Denny:  As usual Washington is frustrating the country - and the world markets - with its typical bickering and jockeying for dominant position on the latest issue.  The American people want our politicians to solve the problems of the country.  The politicians and their lobbyist handlers are in opposition, pushing only their own agendas.  

Too many in Congress are privately talking about allowing the Sequestration to go through with the deep cuts - for several months until at least June or July.  They want to see how loudly the public howls about their economic pain of not receiving paychecks and then forced to empty their savings accounts to pay bills.  Are you kidding me?  Who are these Bozos?

Ouch Outrageous Obnoxious and Odd: Why Russians Dashboard Cams Catch So Many Funny Things: From Denny:  When you live in a police state country, stuffed to the gills with corrupt police and politicians, the average Russian takes measures to get the record straight.

Come on; it's common global knowledge the old Cold War intelligence community - the dreaded ruthless KGB - and the current Russian drug cartels basically run Russia, though the public is demanding serious reform. The average Russian knows...

To Prez Obama: Ram Chuck Hagel Nomination Til GOP Bleeds

From Denny:  Can the Republicans get any nastier than they have for this Sec. of Defense nomination of former Republican Senator Chuck Hagel?  Apparently, when you divorce the GOP, like he did because he is a moderate who was told he was no longer welcome at the political table, the Republicans are hell bent on revenge and his destruction.  

The personal attacks are so vicious in the hearings that even Mr. Nasty Himself, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) - a former best friend and now sworn enemy of Hagel - told the party to back off as he did in the recent committee right before the whole Senate vote.  When McCain thinks something has gone too far you know it's really bad as he revels in mean-spirited and nasty attacks...

Dennys Funny Quotes: Cookie Monster Hunted By German Police: Alleged Golden Cookie Theft

This photo from German newspaper 'Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung' shows  a big blue 'Cookie Monster' with a giant golden biscuit which has been stolen from the Bahlsen biscuit company - it was part of the company's trademark sign. It came with a letter (right) claiming responsibility for the theft and demanding the company deliver free cookies to children's hospitals to get it back.
source:  Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung

Dennys Funny Quotes: Cookie Monster Hunted By German Police: Alleged Golden Cookie Theft: From Denny:  Cookie Monster is in trouble - again!  His alleged cookie addiction could cost him some time behind bars if he doesn't get a lenient judge who can sympathize with his plight. Of course, an extortion letter to a German newspaper may not prove to be helpful.  German police are investigating.

You see, Cookie Monster has now made Bahlsen, a popular German cookie maker in Hanover, Germany, world famous with his alleged theft of their trademark iconic giant golden cookie sign, a gilded bronze sculpture.  It's been reported in America and across The Pond in the UK and Europe.

Cookie Monster allegedly claimed responsibility for the sneaky theft.  His demand letter?  CM allegedly wants Bahlsen to...

Obama Legacy At Risk? Thuggish Justice Dept Needs Reform?

Seal of the United States Department of Justice

From Denny:  It's no wonder there now exist 300 million guns owned in America since terrorism struck in 2001.  People are afraid of outside terrorists, desperate to protect themselves and their families.

Americans now feel threatened by and afraid of their own government.  Just check out the latest Pew Research poll where the majority feel the federal government threatens their personal rights.

Do they have good cause since the erosion of individual rights, freedoms, civil rights and privacy taken away under the last two administrations, courtesy of the Justice Department, all because of the War on Terror?

It's the general perception in America that our Justice Department is heavy-handed in its prosecution of cases.  OK, the perception is that it persecutes people, not prosecutes.  Clearly, there needs to be a top-down review from an outside consultant, preferably a team of investigators.  Quick, someone go re-hire outgoing Sec. of Defense Leon Panetta before he leaves Washington.  He's an attorney, an excellent administrator and a truth teller that could get to the heart of the garbage going on over at Justice.
