Rush Limbaugh did play the role of Captain Obvious earlier in the week and say the media would circle the wagons behind the killers if they are leftists. Duh!
It’s much easier for the progressive media to find compassion for a man who killed 4 including a child, injured almost 200, blown the limbs of dozens of people, if the killer is a left-wing ideologue and Islamist to boot. [Via Dan Riehl]
Had these been conservative, or Tea Party attributed killers, the media would hold no such sympathy. Sickening, left-wing media bias…….. just sickening.
Napolitano questioned about Saudi student being “deported, due to national security concerns“…. watch:
On Monday night 4/15/13 (the day of the Boston Bombing) new media reports from the Boston area discussed that an apartment belonging to a Saudi National, Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, in Revere Mass, was searched by FBI and Law enforcement. Abdul was in the U.S. on a student visa.
Federal search warrant is now being executed at 5th floor apt 364 Ocean Ave in Revere, MA – alot of activity, different agencies on scene.
Immediately following this report I checked this site and found Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi lived in Revere, Mass (Boston suburb) at an apartment on the 5th floor. #503 – That listing is now scrubbed, gone, disappeared…. down the rabbit hole. (more…)
WASHINGTON – The Senate will vote Wednesday afternoon on what could be the biggest change in U.S. gun laws in nearly two years.
Senators will take up the bipartisan proposal from Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) to expand background checks on firearm purchases and close the so-called gun show loophole at 4 p.m.
It will require 60 votes to pass, and the White House and Democrats still lack the final votes they need. (more…)
Here is the sworn affidavit given by Commander Deanna Fox-Williams (pictured above second from right) to the internal affairs division of the Miami-Dade School Police Department. The redacted name in all the documentation is Trayvon Martin, or the initials “TM”.
Within the affidavit you will find even more information about the specifics surrounding how statistics were manipulated and how officers were given specific instructions to conceal student encounters with law enforcement. Generally in favor of diversion programs intended for one purpose, to improve statistics.
The M-DSPD, under the leadership of Police Chief Hurley was attempting to inflate the appearance of their effectiveness by changing how police officers were permitted to engage with School Students and uphold the law.
Police officers were pressured and given instructions to falsely classify behavior, at times even invoking the “Baker Act”, so the criminal justice statistics could be artificially improved. By all appearances Trayvon Martin was one of those “diversionary” students. (more…)
Delinquency referrals in schools throughout the state declined 16 percent compared to the same period the year before. School referrals declined in 46 of Florida’s 67 counties, with Miami-Dade recording the biggest numeric decline (353 cases or 60 percent) in school-related delinquency. A school-related referral is an arrest for a juvenile misdemeanor or felony committed on school grounds. (link)
Two weeks later, February 15th, 2012, the following Press Release:
Another two weeks later, Sunday February 26th, 2012, one of those improved Miami-Dade statistics decided to confront a hispanic man named George Zimmerman, in Sanford Florida. The high school junior, a diverted statistic from Krop High, punched Mr. Zimmerman in the nose, knocking him to the ground, and straddled him MMA style. (more…)
We call it “his money” because in the world of all things progressive they view wealth, or income, as belonging to the State. Progressives in a larger sense view wealth as a static amount of available resource, a single pie to be divided – the Scarcity mentality.
Therefore all production value, the income earnings of your labor, actually belongs to the State, and they alone will determine how much of their money you are allowed to receive. It is, in its most direct sense, the essential tenet of fabial-socialism; Which is, as you know, the essential ideology of modern progressives (Democrats or Liberals defined).
WASHINGTON – President Obama’s 2014 budget calls for a trillion dollars in new taxes, almost twice as much as previously thought, The Washington Examiner has learned.
“Of the more than $1 trillion in new taxes, about $800 billion is raised through the individual income tax system, about $125 billion comes from new excise taxes — including new taxes on tobacco and financial companies,” a source familiar with the president’s budget explained. “The remainder comes from reverting back to the 2009 estate tax parameters and other miscellaneous tax increases.” […] (link)
FACT: The last federal budget actually signed into law took place in September of 2007 for fiscal year 2008. It was signed by President Bush.
FACT: Since then, and due to the Democrat party spending objectives, not a single day of the Obama administration has been with any budget restrictions at all.
FACT: The ‘spend at will’ Democrats had full control of both houses of congress and the White House for Fiscal Years 2009, 2010, 2011 and they never passed a budget. The Senate never even proposed one, and the Obama budget proposal only got 2 votes in 2011, and -ZERO- votes in 2012. (more…)
….. Modern Progressive goals are based on self-fulfilling prophecy. Overwhelm the system, create crisis (the need for change), deconstruct established safeguards, and then rebuild a New World Order….
Let there be no further doubt: Exhibit “A” Joe Biden
Vice President Joe Biden calls for the creation of a “new world order” at the Export Import Bank conference in Washington on April 5, 2013
WASHINGTON DC – Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Friday that unless nominations start moving swiftly through the Senate, another round of dramatic rules changes may be in the offing.
The Nevada Democrat said that while he was “happy” with the modest rules changes adopted in January on a bipartisan basis, the number of pending judicial nominations led him to warn his colleagues of the potential for the chamber’s rules to be modified at any point in the year, not just at the opening of a new Congress.

Earlier we brought you the story of how the Housing and Urban Development has lost account for over $700 million in taxpayer money they slopped into the grievance trough after Katrina.
Here is yet another example of how The Federal Government promotes the fiscal dependency initiatives. The same department, H.U.D, now promoting discrimination complaints for muslims.
When you read the claim by H.U.D. ask yourself a simple question. Is there really rampant discrimination based on religion in housing? Really?…, or is this just another Pigfordesque guise. (more…)
