Congressional leaders ordered the flags at the U.S. Capitol lowered to half-staff Tuesday morning to honor the five victims of last week’s shooting rampage in Chattanooga, Tenn. — but no such order came from President Obama, as the White House flag continued to fly at full staff.
…. So far, the White House has not ordered its flags to be lowered. The White House has ordered flags lowered on several occasions in the past, including after the tragic mass shooting in December 2012 at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. The directive at the time ordered flags lowered, “As a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless acts of violence perpetrated on Dec. 14, 2012, in Newtown, Conn.”
Asked about the matter on Monday, Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters that Obama has offered his “sincere condolences to the families of those who were killed in this attack.”

“Deborah Nucatola—the Planned Parenthood doc with the stone-cold heart and the lucrative skill of “crushing” babies in just the right spot—has been advising the Obama administration on family planning policy since 2010.
From April 2010 through April 2014, Nucatola was one of several experts the U.S. Health and Human Services Office of Population Affairs (OPA) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Division of Reproductive Health tasked with creating federal guidelines for “quality family planning services.” A member of the “Expert Work Group” and the “Technical Panel on Clinical Women’s Services,” Nucatola was actively engaged in the “multistage process” that produced the government’s 2014 report, “Providing Quality Family Planning Services” (QFP).”
“What’s the goal of those government recommendations? To help “clients…achieve their desired number and spacing of children and increase the likelihood that those children are born healthy.”
Leave it to the Obama administration to tap an abortionist for “expert” advice on ensuring that children are “born healthy”—an abortionist, mind you, who relishes butchering a “17-weeker” and bagging up a tiny infant’s “heart, lung, liver” to sell for a few extra bucks.”
“The group behind the undercover video purportedly showing a Planned Parenthood official speaking frankly about harvesting fetal organs between bites of dinner have released another potentially damaging video of one of the organization’s leaders.
The Center for Medical Progress has released a video of Planned Parenthood Federation of America’s Medical Directors’ Council President Mary Gatter seemingly haggling over the price of fetal tissue. “What would you expect for intact tissue?” an undercover actor asks her.
“Well, why don’t you start by telling me what you’re used to paying,” Gatter says. “…You know, in negotiations whoever throws out the figure first is at a loss, right?”
“What I want to know is, what would work for you? Don’t lowball it, tell me–”
“$75 a specimen,” Gatter cuts across.
Later in the discussion, she says that she wants a higher price if it turns out Planned Parenthood’s California affiliates are getting more. “Let me just figure out what others are getting, and if this is in the ballpark, then it’s fine, if it’s still low, then we can bump it up. I want a Lamborghini!” Gatter joked.
“What did you just say?” the actor asked.
“I said I want a Lamborghini!” she repeated.
Throughout the video, Gatter constantly clarifies that Planned Parenthood is not in it for the money. “You know the money is not the important thing for me,” she says after the Lamborghini crack. “But it has to be big enough that it’s worthwhile for me.”
“President Obama is finally ordering the American flag to be flown at half staff after the Chattanooga terror attack last week. Five Marines were murdered in that attack.
“”Our thoughts and prayers as a Nation are with the service members killed last week in Chattanooga. We honor their service. We offer our gratitude to the police officers and first responders who stopped the rampage and saved lives. We draw strength from yet another American community that has come together with an unmistakable message to those who would try and do us harm: We do not give in to fear. You cannot divide us. And you will not change our way of life,” Obama writes in a presidential proclamation.”
” … Trump shockingly questioned whether Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is a war hero. According to Trump, Americans praise McCain as a military hero because he was a prisoner of war. But Trump asserted he prefers military heroes who are not captured by the enemy. Trump also recently stunned Christians when he asserted at the Family Leadership Conference that he is a Christian but has never asked God for personal forgiveness.
“Critics say these kinds of remarks suggest Trump is politically incompetent, arrogant, and out of touch with average working-class voters. But his comments and his ad hoc style might reveal something else to average, working-class, and religious voters, regardless of their race: Trump has an entitlement attitude because of his privileged status. …”
Anonymous, 🙂 the comments on one video are pretty good too: if the guy had posted a Confederate flag on Facebook, they’d know his motives immediately. But make it really obvious you want to be a martyr for Islam, and your motives become indecipherable. Madness!

And yet, they were soldiers, frankly, killed while defending the country, albeit not in a war zone. 😦
