The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

To Attend or To Not Attend?


For John, BLUFPeople notice when the US doesn't show.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



The headline from yesterday's edition of The Wall Street Journal:
Obama won’t attend France peace rally
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel and President Mahmud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority attended.

The article lists the main attendees, from Albania (Prime Minister Edi Rama) to NATO (Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg).  US Attorney General Eric Holder was in Paris, but did not participate in the March.  Our Ambassador did.

There has been some back and forth on this.  Did we do what we should have or did we fail to do our duty in solidarity with our French Brothers and Sisters.

Sadly, this time, we cannot declare, "Lafayette, we are here!".

BTW....Obama's Sunday schedule was that there was nothing scheduled. So, he stayed home because he didn't want to go. I don't buy that the SS didn't want to risk it. Every other world leader did....and several of them have more to fear than Obama. In fact, the Islamists would go out of the way to protect him....he is too valuable to their "cause."
