Flag Day and Happy Birthday to the U.S. Army

US_Flag_Day_poster_1917 - Copy

Saturday is Flag Day.

In the United States, Flag Day is celebrated on June 14. It commemorates the adoption of the flag of the United States, which happened on that day in 1777 by resolution of the Second Continental Congress.

The United States Army also celebrates the Army Birthday on this date; Congress adopted “the American continental army” after reaching a consensus position in the Committee of the Whole on June 14, 1775.

As Rick Moran  wrote at American Thinker:

Please honor the flag by thinking about those who have fought and died for it, as well as what our national symbol represents.

We the People know that our flag represents freedom. Today, when our freedom is under attack, it is more important than ever to honor the traditions that bind us together, so please try to fly the flag on Saturday.

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light, what so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, o’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes, what is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep, as it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam, in full glory reflected now shines in the stream: ‘Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore that the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion, a home and a country should leave us no more! Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave from the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave o’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand between their loved home and the war’s desolation! Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, and this be our motto: “In God is our trust.” And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave o‘er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Happy Birthday to the U.S. Army!

  1. What’s sad is that all the achievements in Iraq are going down the tubes. All the sacrifices–down the tubes. Barry has thrown it all away (by design) of course. Wagging the dog today? I wonder, except that he’s OFF TO PALM SPRINGS to fund raise and play golf while his “national security team” studies out whatever he can do to help the Iraqis–stayed tuned until Monday, when Iraq will probably be too far gone so that any help would be useless, anyway. That’s provided he really cares to help them. Does he?

    This comes about as the Iraqi “insurgents” are taking over the entire country and imposing sharia, using weapons that we probably gave them when we helped their allies in Syria. Good jop, Barry. Hillary? What say you now, or was this YOUR plan, too?

    Oil is soaring so, hey! How’s that fundamental transformation going? Is the Keystone Pipeline built? NO. Well, oil just has to “necessarily skyrocket”. http://www.cnbc.com/id/101752227 Not to worry. We’ll have to be more dependent than ever on the SAUDIS. Everything going as planned.

    Yesterday I heard someone on radio say that Barry’s in a “sprint to the finish line” as his last two years in office wind down. Sure looks like it.

    His fecklessness has consequences, but surely he and the left will rejoice to see GWB’s achievement cast down, even if it means MILLIONS of women across the Middle East are thrown into lives of subjugation. Back into it in Afghanistan and into it in Iraq, where under secular Saddam they had some modicum of freedom.

    IRAN will come to the rescue, it’s said. More power for IRAN. We’ll become more dependent upon them, too, and the Saudis. The left cares nothing about these women of the Middle East, just so long as they can succeed in undoing what GWB and all our brave men and women in the Armed Forces accomplished.

    Barry, of course, has been single-mindedly intent upon that from the beginning. Vengeful, you might say. How wonderful that Iran will have even more power than ever. All the better to “balance” the power and take the U.S. down more pegs. Maybe the new “superpower” will be Islamic. Yay! WHAT FOOLS OBAMA VOTERS ARE. This is on their hands:

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2655977/ISIS-militants-march-Baghdad-trademark-bullet-head-gets-way-control-north.html

    “The full horror of the jihadists’ savage victories in Iraq emerged yesterday as witnesses told of streets lined with decapitated soldiers and policemen.

    Blood-soaked bodies and blazing vehicles were left in the wake of the Al Qaeda-inspired ISIS fanatics as they pushed the frontline towards Baghdad.

    They boasted about their triumphs in a propaganda video depicting appalling scenes including a businessman being dragged from his car and executed at the roadside with a pistol to the back of his head. [How long before this comes here?] The extent of the carnage came as:

    Images from captured cities such as Mosul and Tikrit showed deserted streets, burnt out vehicles and discarded uniforms left by government troops fleeing the brutal fanatics;
    ISIS leaders urged their bloodthirsty followers to continue their march and warned that battle would rage in Baghdad and in the holy city of Karbala;

    Thousands of residents in the capital answered a call to arms to repel the invaders amid fears the government’s own troops were not up to the job; [Why it’s jop 1 to disarm the U.S. citizenry.]
    Aid groups warned of a new refugee crisis after half a million terrified Iraqis left their homes to escape the jihadists. …”

    And what a coup. Think about it. Think of ALL THE U.S. LIVES LOST, ALL THE MAIMED TROOPS, AND ALL THE BILLIONS SPENT AFTER 9/11 ON THE WAR AGAINST TERROR. ALL WASTED.

    Now the jihadists will have a STATE from which to operate. What could be better and how funny that all that U.S. taxpayer money has been wasted. Almost like what Reagan did to Russia with the arms race. Poetic justice, if you’re a communist and/or a jihadist.

  2. http://dailycaller.com/2014/06/12/child-immigrant-facility-dog-and-pony-show-invite-comes-with-tons-of-rules/

    “The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is welcoming members of Congress and their senior staff to tour a temporary shelter being used to house illegal immigrant children — but the invite comes with a list of rules, including a suggestion that members leave their cellphones in their vehicles. …

    Sent to members of Congress and staff by Rose Hacking, of the office of the assistant secretary of legislation at HHS, the invitation comes with the following commands:

    No recording devices will be allowed (We may ask you to leave your cellphone in our vehicle)
    No questions will be allowed during the tour, but questions will be addressed later
    No interacting with staff and children at the shelter
    We will provide photos of the facility after the tour …

    But one congressional staffer invited to tour the facility called the planned tours “a dog and pony show.”

    “Don’t talk to anyone, don’t record anything you might happen to see, but come visit us and we’ll give you a sanitized story with only the photos and accounts we want you to have,” said the staffer, who requested anonymity. [So what’s new? The entire administration has been a sanitized “story” with the “photos and accounts” they want the Congress and We the People to have. FEAR? TERROR? Why else request anonymity?]

    This isn’t some totalitarian closed society trying this tactic, this is our own government. They clearly wouldn’t be offering up this kind of dog and pony show if they weren’t hiding a very ugly truth somewhere.” …”

    That’s where the staffer is wrong. This IS our government but it IS ALSO “some totalitarian closed society.” Unfortunately, it is, and the staffer and the staffer’s employer better WAKE THE EFF UP SOON AND STOP THIS INSANITY. These people are supposed to represent US. They have the power to turn off the spigot and starve this beast and they’d better grow some SOON before it’s too late for us as it’s too late, apparently, for Iraq.

    • Saw her on CBS this morning. What a freaking makeover! I saw what I believe to be some signs that perhaps Rove was on the money.

  6. Happy Flag Day everyone. 😀

    • What frustrated me about that article, and I read the transcript but didn’t listen to it, is despite the title, they gloss over what the “officials” (who are sorta kinda insiders who “know” what is going on in the administration) said and spend 99% of the interview rehashing stuff that we’ve been over and over and over…
      Things like that drive me up the wall.

    • You know what? The lawsuit being filed on behalf of the family of Ms. Fuddy is very interesting because, for one thing, it rather confirms that she is amongst the deceased. May she rest in peace. Now where are the numerous lawsuits that would have been expected to be filed against, for example, the so-called “security” firm that had just got done completing the contract to make that school as secure as possible? Then there’s the school district itself and perhaps the emergency responders who kind of didn’t follow procedure. Know what I mean? There are numerous blog postings about how standard protocol wasn’t followed, such as who the heck declared all the victims beyond help, dead? I’m just sayin’.

      • Miri, you mention Fuddy here and I found something that has had me bothered ever since I found it, a connection to Subud in Hawaii. I’m going to post the info. with all the link’s so that it intentionally goes into moderation so that the info. does not disappear before you get a chance to look at it.

        Column about isle Muslims stirs dissent
        Snip ~
        Non-Muslims in Hawaii have a strong, positive image of the local Islamic community, fostered by educational outreach by its leadership in the wake of terrorism on Sept. 11, 2001. The Muslim Association president, a gracious and dignified businessman, was everywhere, ever present at large and small gatherings to show the human face of Islam, endlessly patient in answering questions and dispelling misinformation about his religion.

        The strength of the mosque leadership seems to be reflected in the online debate. No one but her husband seems willing to express support for the columnist in the face of a barrage of critical messages by a mosque official.

        If people do not agree with mosque leadership, they will stay away rather than engage in an argument with them, said Saleem Ahmed, a Honolulu businessman who endured a similar bout of official wrath two years ago when he published “Beyond the Veil and Holy War,” which strays from fundamentalist teaching. He used it as a text for several rounds of community classes on Islam, and mosque leaders showed up to refute his view.

        Islam: A Religion of Peace? Hardcover – February 15, 2009
        by Saleem Ahmed

        Saleem Ahmed – “Beyond the Veil and Holy War,”

        About the Author
        Saleem Ahmed was born in India, raised in Pakistan, and now lives in Hawaii. He considers all three his home. He earned his M.S. degree in Geology at the University of Karachi in 1961 and his doctorate in Soil Science from the University of Hawaii in 1965, on a scholarship awarded by the East-West Center.

        [Soil Science doctorate University of Hawaii in 1965, on a scholarship awarded by the East-West Center. Catch that?]

        The other degree he obtained in Hawaii was his wife, the former Carol Matsumoto, nicknamed Yasmin (after her Japanese middle name, Yasuko). Returning to Pakistan in 1965 with Yasmin, Saleem first taught soil science at the University of Karachi, then spent the next eight years with the Esso Pakistan Fertilizer Co., Ltd., with his last position as Technical Services Advisor. As an agronomist, Saleem was intimately associated with the first phase of research and development leading to Pakistan’s Green Revolution. Saleem spent the next 22 years with the East-West Center, Honolulu,

        [Saleem spent the next 22 years with the East-West Center, Honolulu, again catch that? I think this could tie in also – Pakistan’s Green Revolution.]

        led their Botanical Pest Control project, and introduced to Hawaii South Asia’s neem tree (renowned for its pharmaceutical and safe pest-control properties). Currently he works as a financial specialist. Dismayed by how some Muslims were maligning Islam, Saleem started studying the Quran and hadeeh during the Iranian hostage crisis (1979-80). His findings led to the publication of his first book on Islam, Beyond Veil and Holy War: Islamic Teachings and Muslim Practices with Biblical Comparisons (2002). Encouraged by the positive response he received from moderate Muslims and non-Muslims and simultaneously dismayed by the more recent extremist Muslim actions via suicide bombings and disruption of life in Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan and elsewhere, Saleem was prompted write this second book. With the general support he has received for the founding of the Pacific Institute of Islamic Studies (PIIS), we should expect other books from him and colleagues investigating other aspects of Muslim life, including interfaith thinking and action. Saleem’s diverse writings include: Scrabble(R) Word-Building Book, co-authored with his wife and both daughters (Pocket Books, Simon & Schuster, 1991);

        So I looked into this guy Saleem Ahmed from Hawaii a little more and the connection he has to Subud in Hawaii and his connection with allbelievers.net. (Remember above at the beginning of the post the – Moving Pen Publishers, Inc., USA and the allbelievers.net )

        I came across this –

        Interfaithing
        by reynold ruslan feldman, ph.d

        Snip ~

        In September 1996 my late wife and I moved from Saint Paul back to our beloved Honolulu, where we had helped establish the Subud group in 1967. By this time there were a lot more interreligious activities happening at the grassroots level. I soon became part of the steering committee of and an occasional presenter at Honolulu’s Interfaith Open Table. From this participation I got a year-long consulting gig to help Honolulu become the venue for one of the Parliament of the World’s Religions’ periodic meetings. From all this local activity plus occasional pieces I wrote for the local newspapers—they once also did an article on me as a Jewish-Christian fasting with Muslims for Ramadan, a kind of one-man interfaith representative—I became known in the state as someone committed to interreligious understanding and collaboration. As a result, Dr. Saleem Ahmed, a Pakistani Muslim living in Honolulu and a strong spokesman for moderate Islam, recruited me to edit his book Beyond Veil and Holy War. Later I became a co-founder of an interreligious organization Saleem developed and now leads: The All-Believers Network (allbelievers.net). Among other things, Saleem and “Belnet’s” board are pushing to get the State of Hawaii to consider itself the Interfaith Capital of the World. To that end, Belnet will be holding an international “One Reality” Conference in September 2012, which the World Subud Association is considering co-sponsoring.

        http://www.subud-sica.org/index.php?hkat=7&ukat=24

        Somewhere I also found Saleem also owns the web site religionofpeace.com web site.

        Miri, I hope this all post (into moderation, so you can review it first) without me losing it. I had to get the info. to you. Like I said, it’s been bugging me – bad… I think there’s a strong connection here and if there is there’s no one better than you determining if there is.

        I’ve found some more connections to Subud that connect to Hawaii, California, Pelisi (misspelled intentionally) her < brother in law and the Kent's of Kentfield Ca. (Roger Kent and her brother worked together in politics) the Kent's of Ca connected way back to John Muir (which he is the one that got the environmentalists going) and one of the Kent's of CA closely related iirc Roger Kent's brother? set up the C…I…A. Let me also give you the main two links that started me on that research –

        John Starr Cooke, Hawaii

        Early Life Honolulu, Hawaii 1920–1940[edit]

        Cooke was born in 1920 into a wealthy family in Honolulu, Hawaii, the youngest of the eight children of Clarence Hyde Cooke and Lily Love and is a nephew of zoologist Charles Montague Cooke Jr, grandson of arts philanthropist Anna Rice Cooke, great-grandson of New England missionaries Amos Starr Cooke and Juliette Montague, and great-great-great grandson of American military officer in the Revolutionary war and politician Josiah (Joseph) Platt Cooke.

        According to Brion Gysin, Cooke was in touch with the Kahunas of Hawaii from an early age.[1] In later life, Cooke knew Kahuna David “Big Daddy” Bray (1889–1968), and it is likely that this connection with Bray went back to his childhood. Cooke developed a lifelong interest in the Tarot at the age of nine when he mistakenly bought a Tarot deck instead of regular playing cards.[2] John travelled to mainland USA (particularly to San Francisco) many times with his mother before her death in 1933.[3]

        John’s sister Alice married Democrat politician and lawyer Roger Kent in 1930. They lived at Kentfield, California in Marin County of San Francisco, and after Lily’s death, Alice took on a mothering role for the young John. John continued to travel regularly from Honolulu to San Francisco through the 1930s.[3] At 19, Cooke employed the Ouija board at Kentfield with Alice Kent (who was also mystically inclined).[2] He would continue to use the Ouija board for at least the next thirty years.
        Snip ~
        John and Mary Cooke sent word to L. Ron Hubbard in London to come and cure John. Hubbard couldn’t come but sent his right-hand man “Lucky” Jim Skelton, an Australian Scientologist the Cookes had previously met in London. Gysin had also met Skelton in London. Skelton met with some success in reducing the paralysis, but complained to Hubbard that the method was not fully effective. Hubbard countered that Skelton was not performing the method correctly, which led Skelton to split from Hubbard and Scientology. In addition, Lucky Jim fell in love with both John and Mary and lived together with them.
        [L. Ron Hubbard] connects to Ayer's]

        Cooke was looking for a cure for his paralysis. He was told by his friend John G Bennett, a leading Gurdjieff follower, about an Indonesian religious leader, Pak Muhammed Subuh Sumohadiwidjojo, and the religious group Subud. Cooke would likely have heard of the apparently miraculous cancer cure of Hollywood actress Eva Bartok after she was “opened” in the Subud method in May 1957; the case was widely reported in the press in November 1957.[11] Cooke agreed to finance Subuh’s stopover in the US and, with his sister Alice Kent, greeted Subuh on his arrival in San Francisco 22 March 1958. At around this time, Cooke moved to the Carmel highlands and his home became the Carmel headquarters for Subud.[12]

        All the goodies on the connections above also here. Which includes Pat Brown, ex- Governor of CA. Not sure you knew, but Pat Brown was investigated by the F…B…I for being a communist. Search – F…B…I Pat Brown through Ixquick and you'll find the < files on him.

        • “Somewhere I also found “Salxxx” also owns the web site”

          From my link above, found the link Miri!
          Scan dwn, it’s towards the bottom of the page.
          http://www.midwestbookreview.com/sbw/oct_09.htm proxy

          • Hey, LEZA!!! Good to hear from you, girl. Hope all’s well with you. I’ll read your comments now. I just wanted to say hello.

        • Wow. A lot of interesting research there, Leza. Thanks. You sure can’t make some of this stuff up, especially the stuff about L Ron Hubbard, and Skelton falling in love with both members of the couple! I updated your comment with proxy links, if possible. I couldn’t get one for the pdf, but it’s in the Wayback Machine, so shouldn’t disappear. This guy sounds like either he IS a ‘moderate’ or else it’s taqiyya. What a wide range of “interests” he’s involved with. The agriculture thing goes with his degree. Performing arts? Oil. Check! Weren’t we, somewhere, investigating a pen company? Literally, a pen company? Those names sound familiar so I’ll have to search to see if any of them have turned up in discussion here before. He certainly was present when some other “Hawaiian” persons of interest were there at the same time. Indonesian ones, too. His geology degree would put him in good company with a certain geographer. Hmm. Good work.

          Hope you feel better. We think about you, too, and miss you. Somebody sent you a shout out not long ago, iirc. Take care. So happy to hear from you.

          • Miri this connects in so may ways. The mentioned reynold ruslan feldman, ph.d, he helped start up Subud in Hawaii. His connection to Saleem Ahmed and THEIR connection to Subud. Eva Bartok the actress from years ago (from the Cooke link) also helped set up Subud in Hawaii. Eva’s daughter claims she is the daughter to Frank Sinatra, that she was conceived when Eva and Frank had a long time affair. The daughter is still working with Subud, not that she or Sinatra may connect to any of this, just make’s ya wander, know what I mean? Just how far doe’s all of this connect, how and why? The Connection with the Kent’s, like I said before, Roger Kent and Pelisi (misspelled intentionally) brother in law workedthisclose together in politics. To me It just draw’s on the connection, you have all three connected, Subud, Muslims, Communists. Was Fuddy practicing under Ahmed in Hawaii? was she under someones control? if you get my drift… taking orders from someone connected to all of this? Lol, is my tin foil hat to tight! 🙂 anyway, you’ll find so many connections if you have the chance to research some of what I posted. The connections go on and on.

            Yes we did have another connection to a Pen Co. – C. Steven’s

            • wow, I lost internet connection after posting, had to reboot.

              I also wanted to say or add a coincidence? but John Walker Lindh went to school and lived in Marin County didn’t he? Why yep, sure did. Only 1.8 miles from Kentfield.

              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Walker_Lindh

              Lordy, just look at a few of the Dem’s in Marin County

              hmmm…

              This diserter that also will not talk to his parents after his “release” just like Lindh didn’t his father go to collage or live in that same area at one time?

              Just wander’in 😉 absolutely not implying a thang 🙂

              • Boy, he’s dropped off the radar, hasn’t he? Have you even heard Bergdahl’s name since he came “home”? Yesterday’s news, I suppose. Nothing to see here, folks. MOVE ON.

            • So Eva’s daughter is Ronan’s sister? 😉 I wonder what she looks like. Is there anyone Frank didn’t have an affair with? Maybe Frank is connected. I mean, how else does somebody get a cushy “journalist” job AND a big award after only 3 days on the jop? Oh, thanks for the pen company connection. Tried to find it yesterday, but no luck. https://wtpotus.wordpress.com/2013/08/02/its-not-smart-to-go-smart/comment-page-1/#comment-120087

          • images clearer at site and magnified. Scroll down to “Let’s get Cooke-ing”

            • HOLD that THOUGHT… ‘Cookie’ does it ever END???
              & much more over at .. Sandy M’s

              • Sandy m??

                • Never mind. We need a link, if it’s pertinent. Good work on the images, WAH. Looks as if most of them went to Punahou. I’m assuming they’re all connected to that Castle and Cooke place? The longshoreman’s union worked at those docks. Dole Pineapple? Must be nice to be “elite” and have that kind of money and those connections.

              • Yes there is Zenway, Sandy M’s by golly does have more info. on the above original posting. Thing is Sandy M’s took the original information from here @ wtpotus. Hat tip would have been nice, but more power too her. Hope something more comes out of it from her research.

                  • Thank you Miri. Those links will help going back over our previous info./research on the Cooke’s. If only we could remember everything we’ve found and gone over in the past! I remember quite a bit, but name’s, just can not remember them all.

                    • I’m not sure these links go to the same topic/people but I searched on Cooke and that’s what came up. You have a great memory, though, which I don’t. Sometimes, I find comments by myself that I don’t even remember writing! 🙂

                  • “Another source tells us that on Saturday afternoon he and his wife were turned away from Boxwood Winery owned by John Kent Cooke (son of former Redskins owner Jack Kent Cooke) because the estate was closed for a “private event.””

                    The very first link you posted Miri – Jack Kent Cooke
                    See, the Kent’s of CA and the Cooke’s of Hawaii are all related. Several of them in Canada. Roger Kent’s brother that set up the C…I…A in several places on the net on the history of the C..I..A talks about his relatives the Cooke’s in Canada.

                    Did you notice that there’s a Georgia M. McCauley working in the office of the Hawaii Dept. of the ATTORNEY GENERAL? On Beretania St., too. http://dev.ncjp.org/node/8?q=states/hi

                    McCauley/Cooke connection –

                    http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/louisville/obituary.aspx?pid=143466299

                    COOKE, IRENE BROWN, 91, died peacefully on Monday, June 7, 2010 at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. McCauley Brown, of Harrods Creek. Mrs. Cooke had been battling bone cancer for several months, but notwithstanding her declining health, had come from her home in Amelia Island, Florida to visit her first great-grandchild.

                    Born in 1919 to Thomas Richard Brown and Irene Marie McNally, Irene Cooke was a sixth generation New Yorker proud of her Irish heritage. She loved telling her children the romantic story of her grandmother’s great-grandmother, an Anglo-Irish aristocrat named Lady Belle, who fell in love with an architect her father had hired and eloped with him to America, foregoing a life of privilege for love and adventure in a new world.
                    Snip~
                    Irene Cooke attended Villa Maria Academy and Mount St. Vincent College in New York, ultimately graduating from Mount St. Joseph on the Ohio in 1939 after the Browns relocated to Cincinnati. After graduation, Irene taught Latin and English to Xavier University’s football team and attended the Schuster-Martin School of Drama. During World War II, the Brown family moved back to New York where Irene’s father resumed his role in Naval Intelligence and was a founding member of the Central Intelligence Agency. Mrs. Cooke worked at Commonwealth Magazine as a spokesperson for the Waring Blender and as personal assistant to MGM’s Seymour Mayer.

                    Seymour Mayer? Wizard Of Oz Mayer? Yeah were living in a world of Oz alright!

                • I’m lost. What’s the original posting? Still would need a link because I don’t know what you’re looking at over there. I’m not looking for any hat tip. I don’t even remember doing much looking into Cooke. I do remember looking into that Castle and Cooke warehouse and its connection to the longshoreman’s union that’s connected to both BHO Sr. as well as one of the guys connected to the rollout of the LFCOLB. btw, I saw that Tuchmann guy on TV the other night obfuscating about the Bergdahl fiasco. Called back into service.

                  • Still would need a link because….Does not matter, you and I know Sandy M’s part of the team. I just thought as you and I had discussed in the past that taking research taken from here deserved at least a hat tip. It’s dropped and a hat tip maybe will be considered in the future.

              • half way down the page photo of …Valerie Sarruf ? interesting …
                I forgot the spelling of “monocle”… so I made it Sandy M’s …sorry

          • Thank you much Hoot for looking up the Cooke’s in your book’s and posting the images w/info..

            • Last night looking into some other things I came cross an Obit. The Obit was for a guy who it say’s he played Bridge with the Dunhams

              http://obits.staradvertiser.com/2014/05/25/henry-chip-chapin/

              His mother worked for the Hawaii Historical Society, worked with the newspapers of Hawaii. A real progressive. Just made me do a humm if she would have access to micro fish, if you get my drift. Also didn’t Bab’s Nelson play bridge? I believe I have posted link’s that she did on one of the post’s.

              Here’s his mother’s Obit

              http://obits.staradvertiser.com/2012/06/15/helen-geracimos-chapin/

              Have we ever heard the names before geracimos, or Chapin?

              • Hmmm. Interesting. Madelyn was allegedly a writer before they moved to Hawaii, wasn’t she? At one of those small towns where they lived. I’ll have to go searching to find it. While looking at this Cooke stuff, I ran across something WAH found: https://wtpotus.wordpress.com/2014/04/27/obama-mystery-theater-stanley-anns-passport-discussion-continued/comment-page-1/#comment-145012 Do you think the Debby Cooke who went to Kenya with Mabel Hefty is related to any of those Cookes in the book?

                • Yes I do think Debby is related, and also a big time judge in Hawaii is related. I can not remember his first name but his middle name is Kent Last name Cooke!

                  and this, where you directed me –

                  Belongs to the Outrigger Canoe Club where Babs Nelson had lunch with Dr. West and first learned about that little black baby Barack born to his mother Stanley.
                  Ha! I think were going with a Huge Bingo here. Good work all.

                  My internet is working very slow posting so please have patience with me.

                • Why must there always be these discrepancies…Chip graduated high school and went to college in Ohio, but moved to Hawaii in 1978, when he was 16?

              • Hey, that’s funny. In Chip’s obit he says Madelyn told him her grandson was just elected a state senator in IL, and yet that woman who remembers being on a cruise with Madelyn at the time said that Mad told her that Barry was a “social worker” in IL. Ha! Oh, it was Eleanor: http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2008/Dec/22/ln/hawaii812220320.html

                • Ha! did you see Helen Geracimos Chapin uncle was George Lycurgus whom owned the Hilo Hotel and in the1895 Counter-Revolution of Hawaii, Lycurgus was accused of smuggling guns for the Royalists and charged with treason. He was put in jail for 52 days, but nothing came of the charges.

                  You just can’t make this stuff up!

                • I caught that Miri, Chip said senator in IL, which got me thinking about before coming pres ducks needed to be in a row in HI with a little help from bridge partners/friends of the progressive/muslim followers, willing to follow through with an agenda?

    • You know what else I ponder? Are there REALLY hundreds of thousands of Guatemalan “children” crossing our border?

      • Miri, I sent you something, should be in m.o.d.e.r.a.t.i.o.n 🙂

        Are there REALLY hundreds of thousands of Guatemalan “children” crossing our border?

        It’s an outrage, I know i’m also outraged by it. Seem’s to be really happening. This outraged me even more –

        Honduran President Says U.S. Weak Laws To Blame For Child Migration Crisis

        Fox News Latino June 13, 2014 Ninoska Marcano

        WASHINGTON, D.C. – Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández, on a visit to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Friday, said the U.S. has to strengthen efforts to control the humanitarian crisis that both nations face with unaccompanied migrant children crossing the U.S. Southwest border.

        At the end of his speech to the chamber, where the Honduran head of state discussed his nation’s short- and long-term investment projects with U.S. businesses, Hernández seemed to blame the U.S. for the crisis – saying a lack of immigration reform and weak drug laws has contributed to the problem.

        It is unfair, he said, for his nation to tackle the surge of migrant unaccompanied children alone.

        “We are very worried about the children, but sadly this is a security problem provoked by drug trafficking from the drugs that are consumed by the US, and this has had an impact in the displacement situation (of Hondurans,)” Hernández, who took office in January, told Fox News Latino. “The U.S. has to be more proactive (with the immigration reform) because these separations are inhumane.”

        To tackle the humanitarian crisis of the migrant unaccompanied children, Hernández said his government has asked Mexican officials to immediately set up four new Honduran consulates in the Mexican-Honduran border known as “Ruta del inmigrante” to provide humanitarian aid and custom and immigration support as the flow of people – mostly children alone or with their parents – reach the area.

        ….”To tackle the humanitarian crisis of the migrant unaccompanied children, Hernández said his government has asked Mexican officials to immediately set up four new Honduran consulates in the Mexican-Honduran border known as “Ruta del inmigrante” to provide humanitarian aid and custom and immigration support as the flow of people – mostly children alone or with their parents – reach the area.”

        I’m sorry, but WTF? Seriously? WHY, why is this son of a jackass is letting this happen!

        The “Beast” train that’s transporting them –

        http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3167581/posts?page=5#5

        • Quick thoughts: Not weak laws; weak president. What is MEXICO doing to “control the humanitarian crisis?” It takes two to make a border. Is Barry trying to push a confrontation with Texas and AZ governors to get them to call out the national guard to patrol the border? He’s waiting for an excuse. They’re buying bus tickets and plane tickets for them, so why not tickets HOME instead of elsewhere in the USA? So I’m guessing that the Mexicans are supposed to set up a “ruta del immigrante” to HELP them get across Mexico and into the USA? This answers my question about how they’re getting across Mexico:

          And when they reach the border? And BEFORE this overloaded train gets to the border, as it’s crossing Mexico, what do all the many local authorities and train workers say or do?

      • Did they crawl north in Mexico? What a Feat!
        Who changed their diapers on the WAY?

  7. So MUCH GOOD NEWS!!!! TIME …. to get it OVER!!!!! NOW!!!

    • It isn’t a matter of them thinking we’re stupid; it’s a matter of them (apparently) KNOWING that we’re helpless. What can be done about these “lost” emails? They circumvent the law and LAUGH, SMIRK, SNARK about it because they KNOW they’ll get away with it. Amoral people always believe they’re smarter because there’s NOTHING to hold them back. There’s no conscience there and so they always have an edge on people who have morals, ethics, and consciences. With this complicit, lily-livered Congress, what can be done? Nothing. They have figured out how to game the system. Do what they want and run out the clock. Lie as necessary. Lie more as that lie unravels. Lose documents. Have them eaten by bugs or destroyed in floods or misplaced or destroyed by non-existent policy, etc. It has worked so far, so why would they change? What’s Congress going to do now, about the accidentally missing emails? The lie doesn’t even have to be plausible. ALL it has to be is something that the media will obediently repeat and that the “low-information” voters will accept and that the complicit politicians will repeat to us, with straight faces. Either they’re as stupid as many low-information voters, too, or they’re complicit.

      • Chaffetz suggests the IRS guy LIED UNDER OATH by claiming earlier that the emails WERE “archived”. So lied then or lied now. Either way, it’s a CRIME. Isn’t it? There should be logs of computer down time. There are SURELY backups (multiple ones) of ALL government documents such as emails. Otherwise, that’s probably a crime, too, if they’re missing. Maybe it’s like the missing 18 minutes of Nixon tape. That was a crime, too. Turning off the machine or erasing the tapes. I saw Bernstein on TV this morning. What a clown. Years later, still acting as if his reporting on Nixon was the coup of the last 100 years. Barry makes Watergate look like child’s play, but there’s Bernstein–calling Watergate the biggest scandal ever. It’s ridiculous. Right under his nose these atrocities happen. Could he come out of retirement, maybe, and go for another prize? Please?
