SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – AT 11:48 P.M. ET: 

AGING WORLD – From CNS:   (CNSNews.com) - Sometime in the next four years the global population of human beings who are 65 and older will surpass those under 5 for the first time, according to a new report from the U.S. Census Bureau.  “For the first time in human history, people aged 65 and older will outnumber children under age 5,” says the report, entitled “An Aging World: 2015.”  “This crossing is just around the corner, before 2020,” says the report.  What does that tell you about the future of Social Security? 

INCREDIBLE – From Breitbart:   The Havana Tribune, a state-controlled Cuban newspaper, has added insult to injury following Fidel Castro’s scathing criticism of President Barack Obama upon his departure from the island. In an editorial, the title of which refers to President Obama as “negro,” an opinion columnist has accused him of “inciting rebellion.”  The article is titled “Negro, ¿Tu Eres Sueco?” which roughly translates to “Black Man, Are You Dumb?” (The idiom “pretend to be a Swede” means to play dumb, hence the title is literally asking, “Are you Swedish?”) The author, who is black, goes on to condemn President Obama for meeting with Cuban pro-democracy activists and “subtly” suggesting that the Cuban Revolution needed to change. “Obama came, saw, but unfortunately, with the pretend gesture of lending a hand, tried to conquer,” Elias Argudín writes.   We await the reaction of the American left.  If language like this were employed in the United States, college students would claim to feel unsafe, and would demand personal psychiatrists.

THE TRUTH COMES OUT – Now, after days of heartbreaking waiting, we know the truth about Obama's Argentinian tango.  From the New York Post:   She dances to her own tune!  The professional Argentinian dancer who tangoed with President Obama last week is an ex-Playboy model who threw caution to the wind and defied direct orders to two-step with the Leader of the Free World.  “It wasn’t in the protocol. To tell you the truth, it was forbidden for me to ask him to dance,” sultry Mora Godoy told The Farandula Show in Argentina. “This is why everyone was surprised, especially President Mauricio Macri, who then supported my invitation.”  Godoy, 43, got a leg up on Obama during a state dinner in Buenos Aires last Wednesday where the two trotted around the Centro Cultural Kirchner ballroom for about a minute as she led him around the dance floor.  And thus is important history made, at least for Field Marshal Obama.  I wonder what Michelle thought.
