Hashtag Activism
The saga continues in the case of the captured Nigerian girls who were abducted by the Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram. A video
has been released, proclaiming that the girls had converted to Islam
and shows the girls praying to Allah. The terrorists claim that the
girls will be released if Islamic militant prisoners are freed.
Over the weekend, First Lady Michelle Obama used the presidential weekly address
to make a statement surrounding the Nigerian school girls. She invoked
her own girls, stating, "In these girls, Barack and I see our own
daughters." Last week Michelle Obama tweeted a picture of herself
holding up a sign with the hashtag "BringBackOurGirls." The hashtag has
gone viral, with various leaders, celebrities and activists tweeting
similar pictures of support.
I've explained the failure of Hillary Clinton's State Department
to accurately designate this group as a terrorist organization, rooted
in radical, violent Islamic extremism. But our government is so
reluctant to label radical Islam as a driving force behind terrorism and
violence that it may be hindering our ability to clearly asses threats
throughout the world.
Hashtags aren't going to save these abducted Nigerian girls. Standing up to, and killing these terrorists will. |

ObamaCare Price Tag Rises
The American taxpayers spent nearly half a billion dollars to create
four ObamaCare state exchanges that don't even work. In order to save
these exchange, the price tag is going to go even higher.
Massachusetts, Oregon, Nevada and Maryland all jumped on board with
ObamaCare, but after spending $474 million, they failed to create
functioning state exchange websites.
After scathing criticism, they are now frantically working to either fix
the sites or transition to the federal exchange.
The figure could climb higher if states like Minnesota and Hawaii are
added to the list of failed state exchanges, which is quite possible.
Hawaii alone has spent nearly $10,000 per person to sign people up for
ObamaCare.
How inept do you have to be to waste so much money building websites that don't even work?
