Less than a week ago Ferguson activists were giddy proclaiming the news of 3,287 voter registrations.
However, apparently they were more than a little wrong in the math. D’oh:
Less than a week ago, Days’ office reported that 3,287 brand new voters registered in Ferguson after the shooting death of Michael Brown on August 9. The figures seemed to show an energized voter base and the promise of political change in Ferguson — the current mayor James Knowles was elected with only 1,324 votes back in April.
But according to her latest release, Days’ office is now putting that figure much, much lower — it seems only 128 new voters have registered in Ferguson. (link)
This report comes as Missouri officials are now confirming plans to deal with anticipated widespread violence and riots without a Grand Jury indictment. (more…)
As expected the Syrian Kurdish controlled city of Kobane (Kobani) -located near the border with Turkey- is about to fall into the hands of Sunni ISIS extremists, and Recep Erdogan is doing everything he can to insure it happens.
[…] Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the coalition air campaign launched last month would not be enough to halt the Islamic State advance and called for greater cooperation with the Syrian opposition, which is fighting both the Islamic State and forces loyal to Syrian President Bashar Assad.
“Kobani is about to fall,” he told Syrian refugees in the Turkish town of Gaziantep, near the border.
“We asked for three things: one, for a no-fly zone to be created; two, for a secure zone parallel to the region to be declared; and for the moderate opposition in Syria and Iraq to be trained and equipped.”
Turkish tanks and other ground forces have been stationed along the border within a few hundred meters of the fighting in Kobani — also known as Ayn Arab — but have not intervened. (link)
For two weeks we have watched Erdogan do everything he can to facilitate the falling of Kobane into the hands of his Sunni compatriots, ISIS. Erdogan’s request for a “no-fly” zone insures that Kobane, once lost, will remain a safe haven for the ISIS extremists. (more…)
You just can’t make this stuff up. A liberal activist judge -forced to follow the law and legal precedent- tells the DOJ they must turn over Fast and Furious documents. The DOJ refuse. The federal judge then gives the DOJ a deadline for producing the documents. The DOJ ignore the deadline, and again refuse. The judge is now in a position of having her own court order defied by the entity under her jurisdiction… so she punts, or, well, ‘kicks-the-can’ down past the election.
WASHINGTON DC – A federal judge has declined a House committee’s bid to have Attorney General Eric Holder held in contempt of court — and perhaps even jailed — for failing to turn over documents related to the Justice Department’ s response to Operation Fast and Furious.
However, in a ruling Monday, U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson also denied Holder’s request for an indefinite stay of her prior order that the attorney general must turn over any “non-privileged” documents the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee subpoenaed as part of an investigation into the botched gunrunning investigation. The judge previously ruled that Holder must give the panel any documents that are not both predecisional and deliberative in nature. (more…)
Within the details you find all the jihadist nuggets which connect leftists (Democrats) to radical terrorists (ISIS).
A “teenage” “activist” leaving “Chicago” to travel to “Turkey” to cross into “Syria” and become a “jihadist“…. Can you identify a logical, historical and familiar evolutionary pattern?
[Also, (we know Treepers are sharp on this stuff) notice the picture the liberal media are using to portray the “teen”, and you can identify the liberal bent ideology behind the sketch artist. They want him to appear “older” because it deflects attention from the indoctrination et al. If the media could attach a right-wing-extremist label to the teen, they would use his high school yearbook picture.]
CHICAGO – An Illinois teenager was arrested Saturday at a major airport as authorities say he was attempting to travel to the Middle East to join the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). (more…)
Grand Central Moonbats Traveling To Ferguson
Pete is riding his bike to meet up with Justin in Ferguson.
Every hard core left-wing, communist, socialist and racist group is coordinating to advance upon Ferguson Missouri this weekend. However, the problem the professional agitators might run into is if they are met by the real boys of the hood who are smart enough to know professional opportunists when they are noticed.
Check out this All-Star list of groups planning to support Ferguson October !
Then again, with all of these Brangelina Beatnik Moonbats running around parading their social justice causes – the liquor stores might be less guarded. Lucky Day, Lucky Day…. Whoot, there it is. (more…)
Reverend Carlton Lee also told the Sunday service crowd that Darren Wilson was a coward for “not turning himself in”.
As soon as the crowd was worked into the customary frenzy the collection baskets were passed around for the Mike Brown Grief and Hair Extension Memorial fund.
FERGUSON – Activists crowded into a Missouri church Sunday to demand the arrest of the white police officer who fatally shot an unarmed black 18-year-old in August, sparking weeks of protest and a national debate on policing and race. “We’re calling for the immediate arrest of Officer Darren Wilson,” said Rev. Carlton Lee, the pastor of the Flood Christian Church in Country Club Hills, Missouri, a community adjacent to the city of Ferguson, where Michael Brown was shot dead on Aug. 9.
Brown’s parents, who did not speak at the 3:30 p.m. ET event, stood solemnly behind Rev. Lee. The slain teen’s father, Michael Brown Sr., wore a t-shirt that said “Arrest Him Now” above a photo of Wilson.
Rev. Lee said officials should “bypass” a grand jury that is reviewing evidence in the shooting death of Brown, and instead immediately charge Wilson in Brown’s death. Anthony Gray, the Brown family attorney, stressed that the activists calling for Wilson’s arrest were not “anti-police,” and that they merely wanted to see justice served for Brown’s surviving relatives.

There will be those who say this is just poor timing, or was previously timed, and obfuscate their excuses around a premise this was accidentally bad.
HORSEPUCKY!
These White House delegations are planned, vetted and relentlessly poured through the prism of “what and how would it look if we do thus“.
This is not a “mistake”. This is intentional. FULLSTOP.
OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma Muslims marked the end of the yearly pilgrimage to mecca with communal prayer and celebration called Eid Ul-Adha on Saturday.
Leaders of the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City say it’s been a tough month for Muslims here in Oklahoma after being associated with the beheading at Vaughan foods in Moore. (more…)
These professional political race-baiters are something else. The Washington Free Beacon can now add new item to their ongoing list….
WASHINGTON DC – As a lengthy record of U.S. Secret Service security lapses has been exposed, skepticism of the agency among African-Americans is growing, with an increasing number of blacks believing that agents who are supposed to be protecting President Barack Obama are deliberately dropping the ball. The latest scandal to plague the agency was reported on Friday, and involved a man who posed as a member of Congress and got close to the president while he delivered a speech.
“It is something that is widespread in black circles,” U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver II, D-Mo., who is black, told the New York Times. “I’ve been hearing this for some time: ‘Well, the Secret Service, they’re trying to expose the president.’ You hear a lot of that from African-Americans in particular.”
