Those worried about the "reputation" of the FBI better think back a bit to J. ("I prefer spaghetti straps") Edgar.

Then to the FBI files Hilly had delivered to the White House (also illegal).

Those who believe that exposing Government corruption is bad are in the wrong Country. We don't worship Government here.

At least, not the sane ones.

Boy, you sure aptly named this blog.

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Well, at least your venerable President showed off his leadership skills when he made this very specific, insightful and intelligent comment on the memo.....You know, just in case anyone needed clarification......."I think it's terrible what's going on in this country........I think it's a disgrace and when you see that and you see other things what's going on, a lot of people should be ashamed of themselves and a lot more than that and a lot of people should be ashamed."............Brilliant......

I'm sure he is real and speaking his mind.....what little there is of it.....Really? This vague inarticulate, toddler-speak is what you have been longing to hear from politicians?........Why don't you want intelligent, well-informed people leading your country?........

Ironic that you should call this blog "The Pretzel"
You obviously know nothing of what the shape of a pretzel symbolises.

Claim: An open microphone caught President Obama muttering caustic comments about the 4th of July holiday.

FALSE

Example: [Collected via e-mail, July 2013]

Origins: On 4 July 2013, the web site Duh Progressive published an article about President Obama’s supposedly muttering caustic comments about the 4th of July holiday that were inadvertently picked up by an open microphone after he delivered an Independence Day speech:

The smaller of Obama’s two microphones, which was clipped inches below Obama’s shirt collar, was supposed to have been turned off immediately after his closing remarks to guests and reporters on the White House lawn. But the microphone remained “hot,” catching the President muttering: “God, this holiday sucks! All this national pride shit get’s [sic] on my nerves.”

“You’d think we’d stop celebrating the birth of the worst imperial power in history — but nooooo … we have to do this flag-waving bullshit every year,” Obama muttered more as he made his way from the podium. “I can’t believe I have to miss a good day of golf for this crap!”



Links and excerpts referencing this article were soon being circulated via social media, with many of those who encountered the item mistaking it for a genuine news article. However, the article was just a bit of heavy-handed political satire from Duh Progressive, whose disclaimer notes:

Duh Progressive is a political satire site. While some of the individual quotes, people and events mentioned on Duh Progressive may be real, most of the content is fictional and should not be taken seriously.

Maisie, why do you even bother?
