#Benghazi: Hearings show Hillary Clinton really is “Lady Macbeth.”
**Posted by Phineas I’ve joked since the Clintons first came on the national scene that Hillary was a modern-day “Lady Macbeth,” willing to do anything and put up with anything to get power and keep it.

Barack Obama is a petty, spiteful man-child unworthy of the title “Chief of State”
**Posted by Phineas Okay, okay, Barack. You don’t like those ex-colonialist British and you have emotional issues with the way they may have treated your grandfather in Kenya. I get it, I really do. You just don’t have it in you to overcome your childish bigotry. But the British are among our closest allies, you [...]
(Video) The President on the North Korean threat
**Posted by Phineas The Virtual President, that is. “President” Bill Whittle holds a press conference to explain American policy (and opinion of) North Korea in no uncertain terms: Honest, direct, and no diplomatic weasel words such as “unacceptable,” “world opinion,” or my favorite, “the international community.” (1) Neither bellicose nor warmongering; no chest-thumping to be [...]
