Oy,… There’s a headline you don’t see often.   Lesbian…. Solidarity…. Islamic Law ?   Seriously, can she be a bigger doofus ?   Someone might want to tell Chief Harteau the Sharia folk don’t like “teh gay” aspect.

(Via Front Page Mag)  When the left finally cracks up, the few survivors will have a really good laugh.
According to a Facebook post, Somali staffers that work at Minneapolis City Hall declared February 28 “Hijab Day” at City Hall and convinced the police chief and female city council reps to wear hijabs on the job.
Pictures include: Minneapolis police chief Janee Harteau (who recently married her favorite female sergeant – not very hijab like), city council members Elizabeth Glidden and Lisa Bender as well as other staffers. (more…)

Talk about pathetic political correctness and overblown response….

OH’ CANADA – The University of Regina is responding after a photo depicting some members of the school’s cheerleading team posing in stereotypical “cowboys and Indians” costumes sparked outrage over the web.

Some of the women in the Instagram picture are wearing plaid shirts and cowboy hats, while others have feathers, headbands and braids in their hair and dresses that are made to look like they’re made from animal skin.
University of Regina President Vianne Timmons issued a written release Sunday acknowledging that the team was part of a social event Friday evening that included “culturally inappropriate themes and costumes.”

This is something the TV media are not reporting to the extent it is an explosive development.  

We know from media reports the two stolen passports were used by two Iranian Nationals.    We have previously been told the passports were used to try and gain entry to Europe their final destination.   However, if this report from the LA Times is accurate EVERYTHING changes and actually aligns with our theory of why the plane was taken.

BEIJING — Stolen passports carried by two Iranian men to board missing Malaysia  Airlines Flight 370 were used last year by two people applying for visas to  work as entertainers in China, according to the head of an entertainment  company. (more…)

By now you might have noticed that Texas Governor Rick Perry endorsed Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell in his re-election bid.   You might have also heard his endorsement was during the Kentucky Lincoln/Reagan Dinner.   But did you hear that McConnells opponent, Matt Bevin, was also present and NOT allowed to speak ?
Such is the state of the Establishment Republicans, the “Decepticons”, fear.   You think the BIG R’s speak for freedom – they don’t.

Back in the summer of 2011 as the 2012 candidates were aligning/positioning for a potential run, a meeting was held in Colorado with the Koch Brothers et al, the Decepticons,  the Big Money Donors and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce folk including Tom Donohue.
Governor Rick Perry was the group’s hand selected man of choice.  His presence was unpublicized and somewhat mysterious.   In his home state there were questioning reports of his whereabouts.   That was 2011.
Fast forward to 2014 and it is any surprise the Decepticons and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce / Tom Donohue would not leverage ‘their man’ to assist their agenda ?   Actually, it shows just how desperate they are to retain power.   They wouldn’t even permit Matt Bevin to speak at the dinner.   THINK ABOUT IT.
Is that FREEDOM, or FEAR ?

“Sources with knowledge of the sting said the investigation made financial pitches to both Republicans and Democrats, but only Democrats accepted the payments.”

 PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA – The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office ran an undercover sting operation over three years that captured leading Philadelphia Democrats, including four members of the city’s state House delegation, on tape accepting money, The Inquirer has learned.
Yet no one was charged with a crime.
Prosecutors began the sting in 2010 when Republican Tom Corbett was attorney general. After Democrat Kathleen G. Kane took office in 2013, she shut it down.
In a statement to The Inquirer on Friday, Kane called the investigation poorly conceived, badly managed, and tainted by racism, saying it had targeted African Americans.
{snip, it “targeted African Americans” is a misnomer.  African Americans were caught as an outcome, not an intent.   Think about it – This is the concept of “disparate impact’ applied to the rule of law.  Whereas using ‘disparate impact’ logic: law enforcement, or lawful investigation, is defined as “targeting” by the result, not the intent.  If you say stealing a car is unlawful, and you target car thieves, and all of the thieves are black – then arresting car thieves is ‘targeting African Americans’… /SD}

Putin plays “Risk”, Potus plays “Sorry”. 

Remember it was all the way back on February 19th when Obama promised to take action if Vladimir Putin “stepped over the line” and used military action in Crimea. Russia has not only used military action, it has annexed Crimea.  So today:
WASHINGTON DC – President Barack Obama today imposed sanctions on seven top Russian government officials and four others from Ukraine and warned Russia will face more penalties if it doesn’t pull back from Crimea.
“Continued Russian military intervention in Ukraine will only deepen Russia’s diplomatic isolation and exact a greater toll on the Russian economy,” Obama said at the White House. The U.S. can “calibrate our response” based on whether Russia chooses “to escalate or to de-escalate the situation.”
The U.S. actions, which mark the broadest use of sanctions on Russia since the end of the Cold War, were made in concert with the 28-member European Union, which imposed its own set of penalties. The U.S. also included a ban on travel visas.

Obama left the door open for diplomacy, saying Russia must pull its forces back to their bases in Crimea, accept international monitors and open discussions with the government in Kiev.  (read more)
 

The U.S. Big Business Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue is on record with full support for Obamacare and Amnesty (comprehensive immigration reform).   Now he and the likeminded K-Street Lobbyists are presenting a third issue which runs in opposition to the will of the people, Common Core education. 
I fail to see how people like Ann Coulter et al can marginalize the Tea Party and support the likes of Mitch McConnell, when it is an absolute fact the CoC simultaneously supports McConnell and issues which are diametrically opposite to conservative principles.
Why can’t people see through this Big R smokescreen ?   ObamaCare, Amnesty and Common Core education standards are supported by the same people who support the likes of Mitch McConnell.   These are facts.
WASHINGTON DC – Tea party activists have been waging war for months against the Common Core  academic standards. Now, in a coordinated show of muscle, Big Business is  fighting back — and notching wins. (more…)

The victim, 54 year old David Peterson, was actually on the phone with police when he was shot in the chest.

SEATTLE, WA – A 17-year-old boy accused of killing a Seattle man after the other man fought off a robbery attempt has been charged as an adult.
Charged with first-degree murder, Byron White is alleged to have shot and killed David Peterson on Feb. 23 in Seattle’s Greenwood neighborhood. White was arrested at Sea-Tac Airport attempting to board a flight to Atlanta.
King County prosecutors contend White, a Ballard High School student,  first approached Peterson at 8:30 p.m. in the 8500 block of First Avenue Northwest.
White attempted to steal Peterson’s cell phone, but Peterson, 54, fought him off, according to prosecutors. White is alleged to have walked away, then doubled back and shot Peterson in the chest, killing him. (more…)

(UK Independent) The Libyan former prime minister Ali Zeidan fled last week after parliament voted him out of office.
A North Korean-flagged oil tanker, the Morning Glory, illegally picked up a cargo of crude from rebels in the east of the country and sailed safely away, despite a government minister’s threat that the vessel would be “turned into a pile of metal” if it left port: the Libyan navy blamed rough weather for its failure to stop the ship. Militias based in Misrata, western Libya, notorious for their violence and independence, have launched an offensive against the eastern rebels in what could be the opening shots in a civil war between western and eastern Libya.
Without a central government with any real power, Libya is falling apart. And this is happening almost three years after 19 March 2011 when the French air force stopped Mu’ammer Gaddafi’s counter-offensive to crush the uprising in Benghazi. Months later, his burnt-out tanks still lay by the road to the city. (more…)

BBC reporting 95.5% in #Crimea voted to join Russia. Which means that North Korea will claim their dictator is 4.5% better.

(Reuters Report) Russian state media said Crimeans voted overwhelmingly to break with Ukraine and join Russia on Sunday, as Kiev accused Moscow of pouring forces into the peninsula and warned separatist leaders “the ground will burn under their feet”.
RIA news agency said 93 percent backed annexation, citing an exit poll released as voting ended at 8 p.m. (1800 GMT). Another Russian agency said turnout was over 80 percent.
Caught in an East-West crisis reminiscent of the Cold War, Kiev said Russia’s build-up of forces in the Black Sea region was in “crude violation” of an international treaty, and announced plans to arm and train 20,000 members of a newly-created National Guard to defend the nation. (link)
