A few of the stories happening today…
Via the Washington Free Beacon, Obama expelled excessive toxic greenhouse gases at the COP21 climate conference:
Organizers buzzed Obama every 30 seconds for over two minutes for a total of five buzzes, a Free Beacon analysis shows. The buzzer operator evidently gave up for the last three minutes of Obama’s 14-minute address, which exceeded the requested time limit by 11 minutes.

Via Reuters, online shopping business is booming:
U.S. online sales grew 14 percent on Cyber Monday, on track to set a record, leading some retail websites, like Target Corp’s, to crash temporarily due to high customer traffic.
Website outages and slow checkouts during the five-day shopping spree starting Thanksgiving Thursday, were also reported at PayPal Inc, department store chain Neiman Marcus, Wal-Mart Stores Inc, L Brands Inc’s Victoria Secret, and at Foot Locker Inc.

Via the Daily Caller, Turkey offers Obama a reminder after he lectures them about closing their border to Syria:
President Barack Obama wants Turkey to close its 60-mile-long border with Syria to end the influx of new Islamic State fighters pouring into Syria and Iraq.
If Turkey acquiesces to Obama’s demands, no entry points will remain between the two countries. The entire border is 550 miles long, The Wall Street Journal reports.
But a Turkish official quickly pointed out to The Wall Street Journal the irony in Washington’s call to close off the border, given the U.S. is completely unable to stop flows in and out of Mexico.
In response, a U.S. official said, “If we were at war with Mexico, we’d close that border.”
As new JV team recruits enter the fighting arena, more helpless women, children, and orphans flee for a more peaceful life elsewhere (language warning)…
A couple of headlines I saw regarding the video seemed more concerned that the driver veered toward the pilgrims than of the invading pilgrims themselves.

And “rhetoric” of the toxic, incendiary, X-treme flavor is topical again after some murderous prick killed three people at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs. Click on this link to Grabien to see video of just a sample of what the mealy mouths have been saying.

This is an open thread where you can discuss these topics and the rest of all of the things.
