The New York Times reports that middle class Obama voters are less than happy with finding out that their private plans are being cancelled, and that the Obamacare plans are much more expensive than their private coverage.
The Times describes them as “frustrated”. (!)
…. “We are just right over that line,” said Ms. Chapman, who is 54 and does administrative work for a small wealth management firm. Because their plan is being canceled, she is looking for new coverage for her family, which includes Mr. Chapman, 55, a retired fireman who works on a friend’s farm, and her two sons. “That’s an insane amount of money,” she said of their new premium. “How are you supposed to pay that?”

[…] The Duck Dynasty patriarch led a small Bible study group in his home town church in West Monroe, Louisiana on Sunday, granting MailOnline exclusive access.
And the deeply religious outdoorsman stood by his incendiary statements – which saw him call homosexuality a sin and led to his suspension from the hit reality show by network bosses at A&E.
During Sunday’s speech, he defended himself, saying he was simply quoting from the Bible and even went so far as to say Jesus could save gay people.
‘I love all men and women. I am a lover of humanity, not a hater,’ he added. (more…)

Coast to Coast there were dust bunnies inside Cracker Barrel restaurants today – a Sunday.  The first Sunday since Cracker Barrel corporation did the big stupid.  The company had to respond quickly and urgently.   The restaurants were standing empty with employees standing around.

Dear Cracker Barrel Customer:
When we made the decision to remove and evaluate certain Duck Dynasty items, we offended many of our loyal customers. Our intent was to avoid offending, but that’s just what we’ve done.
You told us we made a mistake. And, you weren’t shy about it. You wrote, you called and you took to social media to express your thoughts and feelings. You flat out told us we were wrong.
We listened. (more…)

Charlie Sheen determines it is his job to represent Hollywood’s position on the Duck Dynasty controversy.    He does an exceptional job of representing the mindset of the Hollywood community.  The chosen platform for broadcast is TwitterPic:

hey Mallard brained
Phil Robertso!
you have offended and hurt so many dear friends of mine,
who DO NOT have the voice or the outreach that I do.
well news flash
shower-dodger,
I will speak loudly and clearly for ALL of them.
so,  just when your desperately sub evolved ass thought the pressure was off,  you are now in the crosshairs of a MaSheen style media 
beat down.
(I’ll try to keep the big words to a minimum as not to confuse you)

Methinks ValJar doth protest too much.  Apparently there is a lot of scrutiny surrounding the abysmal approval ratings for lip-syncing Milli Vanilli Obama.   Scrutiny which leads to band director Valerie Jarrett trying to parse a position as merely an abject observer and not participant in the scheme.   W-h-a-t-e-v-e-r.
WASHINGTON DC – Valerie Jarrett says she has “very specific responsibilities” in the Obama White House and focuses on them, rather than on an all-encompassing portfolio.
“I’m not the shadow chief of staff,” she said, responding to the use of the term by POLITICO’s Ben White at a Morning Money breakfast.
She mentioned her roles in outreach to women and girls, and to the business community and local government officials.
Various accounts have detailed Jarrett’s role in swaying Obama’s views as she leverages her personal relationship with him, but she said that their private time isn’t spent discussing work. “We do compartmentalize,” she said. (more…)

Teh radical Gays are apparently perplexed at how the non-gays are pushing back.   Perhaps the Pink Mafia are beginning to realize there’s a massive sentiment of “enough-is-enough” attached to their latest victimization exploits.  Nah, they’ll never recognize how they’ve exhausted their homophobe card, and now, just like the race-card, their cries of homophobia fall on a disinterested public.

President Obama held an “East Room” reception on June 16, 2012 marking LGBT Pride Month.  The Gay Participants (GLAAD) Took pictures of themselves giving the middle finger to presidential portraits of Reagan and Bush.  Nice Huh?    (full story link)

That said, watch the news cycle closely over the next 72 hours because if the Gay Pride crew follow their normal patterns they will “create” a situation for sympathetic attention.   Statistically it can be expected that somewhere, right now, a small band of gay advocates are formulating a plan to falsify a hate-crime.       
(Via Yahoo News)  In the fallout over Wednesday’s suspension of “Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson by A&E for anti-gay and racist remarks, GLAAD is experiencing record levels of backlash.
“In the five-and-a-half years I’ve worked at GLAAD, I’ve never received so many violently angry phone calls and social media posts attacking GLAAD for us speaking out against these comments,” the media watchdog organization’s vice president of communications Rich Ferraro told TheWrap. (more…)

Here are the THUGS

The suspects were identified as 29-year-old Hanif Thompson, of Irvington; 31-year-old Karif Ford, of Newark; 32-year-old Basim Henry, of Newark; and 33-year-old Kevin Roberts, of Newark.   (additional report)

…. They choose to side with the GAY extortionists  !

[…] Meanwhile, Cracker Barrel is tactically backing away. Employees contacted ABC7, saying they were instructed to pull Duck Dynasty products from the shelves on Friday, and slash prices of remaining items nearly 50-percent.

Late tonight, a Cracker Barrel spokesperson issued this statement:

“We continue to offer Duck Commander products in our stores. We removed selected products which we were concerned might offend some of our guests while we evaluate the situation. We continually evaluate the products we offer and will continue to do so.”
