NORTH CAROLINA – On Monday, Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C). repeatedly refused to answer a simple question on when she knew people wouldn’t be able to keep their current plans under Obamacare.

Sen. Hagan promised on at least 24 separate occasions people in North Carolina would be able to keep their current health care plan — once Obamacare went into effect — if they wished to do so.

However, she dodged the question at her press conference after she made it official she’d be running for re-election.  (read more)

Yeah, think about it.   What lengths do you think these people will go to in their efforts to avoid sunlight ?   Carvalho is deeply connected to the political machine.  He turned down the position of Federal Asst. Secretary of Education – He’s connected deeply to both the President and First lady, as well as Eric Holder.  He’s also deeply politically attached to FL State Attorney General Pam Bondi.  

This is the man who created the M-DSPD issues which led to illegal diversionary programs in Miami-Dade Schools and eventually Trayvon Martin’s death…..  It just sickens me to see this guys get away with this, like – you have no idea.

MIAMI-DADE – Riding a cresting wave of accolades, Miami-Dade Superintendent Alberto Carvalho has been named the country’s top schools chief.

The School Superintendents Association announced in Nashville Thursday that Carvalho had won the 2014 National Superintendent of the Year. Carvalho, who attended the event with two school board members, said he was “humbled and honored” and as he accepted his award his first thoughts were of his father.

The award, given to one of the country’s 49 state superintendents of the year, is likely to further ever-present speculation about whether Carvalho will seek public office or a job on a bigger stage. But Carvalho said in an interview Thursday evening that he remains as focused as ever on working for the 350,000 students of Miami-Dade County. (more…)

This story is horrific.   A white male, Davis Woods, was leaving a local deli in Western Philadelphia when a black male walked up to him from behind and *brutally* smashed him in the head with a hammer.     Mr. Woods friend, Bernard Williams, was in their truck and witnessed the attacker.

The suspect was identified by the police using CCTV systems.    Last night (2/24) they named the suspect as Nathanial Maybin, aged 29.   Today (2/25) Maybin turned himself in.

The police are calling this an “attempted robbery”.   However, there is video available where you can decide for yourself –CLICK HERE– which was broadcast on local Philadelphia ABC channel.

If you watch the video, and listen to the statement of the witness, Bernard Williams – the man’s friend, you will note the friend does not think this was robbery either.

The friend thinks it was attempted murder.

The friend, Mr. Williams, also happens to be black.

It’s obvious to both Mr. Williams, and any non-PC infected observer, this was not a botched robbery.  WATCH THE VIDEO   However, the PC infected police department just cannot allow the truth to be discussed.   (more…)

We wrote about the attack yesterday, but we just noticed an ABC media report which includes another version of the victim statement to the police.  Identifying something the media refuse to accept is real:

Waggoner told police that he heard a suspect say:

…“if you want to be all the way in the club, you have to kill the polar bear.”  (ABC News)

A white Dayton Ohio bus driver was fixing a bus when a group of three black teens savagely attacked him in their attempt to gain gang membership.

Rickey Wagoner (pictured left), was shot multiple times in the chest, and hip.

Wagoner described the attackers as young black males, likely in their late teens. He said they fled in a dark-colored 1990s model Ford. No arrests have been made.

According to a police report, Wagoner told investigators he believed the shooting may have been a gang initiation. He said he heard one of the suspects tell another to kill him “if you want to be all the way in the club.” (full story link)

Notice in the local Dayton Daily News article (screen shot above) they cut out the full victim quote to remove the part: “you have to kill a polar bear“?

Typical Democrat.   Funny thing is sheeple around her probably don’t even notice it.  However, the comment is more than just flat out check-box racist, it’s elitist.   Look at it again:  ….”where are you going to get people to work to clean our hotel rooms or do our landscaping“…

Shouldn’t that be ‘where are “we”‘?  Oh, wait, I get it this is a divisional message.  Me worker – Me service you.   Then you have the: “our hotel rooms” – “our landscaping” ?   “Our”?

Limo-liberal x eleventy !

(Via Washington Free Beacon) Florida Democratic congressional candidate Alex Sink said immigration reform was important at a Tuesday debate because, without it, it would be difficult for Florida employers to find people to clean hotel rooms and do landscaping.

“Immigration reform is important in our country,” she said. “We have a lot of employers over on the beaches that rely upon workers and especially in this high-growth environment, where are you going to get people to work to clean our hotel rooms or do our landscaping? We don’t need to put those employers in a position of hiring undocumented and illegal workers.”

Because a Democrat Job Program starts on the plantation.  You’re latino, oh, ok you’re a maid or a lawn guy.

Just imagine the media if a Republican had said this.   Nuf’ said 

(Via Peoples Cube) According to Breitbart.com, dozens of posters of President Obama with a golf club and a caption “Sub Par” have been spotted outside the PGA’s golf tournament near the Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles, as well as near Pacific Palisades and Santa Monica, California, all of them upscale and liberal enclaves.

A quick web search discovered a number of other locations in LA with “Sub Par” posters pasted over signal boxes, hanging from the wires and lampposts on busy intersections, glued to park benches, and even attached as small stickers to the walls of public bathrooms.

This bears all the marks of an anonymous guerilla street art action by local artists. Photos of these posters, hangers, and stickers are beginning to appear on several websites, but this one is by far the most complete collection we could find. There is also a short YouTube video of a street cop making a comment about one of the hanging posters. (more…)

USA TODAY – America’s ruling class has been experiencing more pushback than usual lately. It just might be a harbinger of things to come.

First, in response to widespread protests last week, the Department of Homeland Security canceled plans to build a nationwide license plate database. Many local police departments already use license-plate readers that track every car as it passes traffic signals or pole-mounted cameras. Specially equipped police cars even track cars parked on the street or even in driveways.

The DHS put out a bid request for a system that would have gone national, letting the federal government track millions of people’s comings and goings just as it tracks data about every phone call we make. But the proposal was suddenly withdrawn last week, with the unconvincing explanation that it was all a mistake. I’m inclined to agree with TechDirt’s Tim Cushing, who wrote: “The most plausible explanation is that someone up top at the DHS or ICE suddenly realized that publicly calling for bids on a nationwide surveillance system while nationwide surveillance systems are being hotly debated was … a horrible idea.” (more…)

If you want to use a walk-off homer to silence the insufferable leftists on the issue of Gay Rights vs. Religious freedom simply ask the following question of the Anderson Coopers and watch them squirm:

If the owner/operator of a “Quick Print” media printing shop is Muslim, and I walk in there with a template image depicting the Prophet Mohammed standing in feces, should the print shop be required or forced to print my bumper stickers or T-shirts ?

Would the progs demand the shop owner be compliant ?  {{{crickets}}}

My liberty driven answer would be “yes”, the shop operator should be allowed to refuse the request based on his/her central tenet of faith.    But, well beyond that easy example my own perspective on freedom and liberty extends to:  Any individual should be free to engage in commerce – or not, contact – or not, relationship – or not, employment – or not, service – or not, for any reason they desire without needing justification.

I respect all people and views, it doesn’t mean I have to agree with them or desire the company of those who afford them.   Respect also means – leave me the hell alone, and don’t force me into relationships that are not determined by my own individual values.

(Via Moonbattery) The Arizona State Senate has once again placed itself in the liberal establishment’s crosshairs, this time by affirming our right not to be compelled to do business with overt homosexuals in situations that violate religious principles.

Media liberals, being extremely overrepresented in the current media, preposterously but predictably screeched like scalded cats that the rights of homosexuals are violated if private citizens are not compelled by the government to enter into relations with them that violate their consciences. Their attempt to equate this with civil rights struggles of the past is an insult that should enrage blacks.

Senate Bill 1062 was explicitly inspired by an outrageous case from neighboring New Mexico, where a Christian photographer was sued for refusing to photograph a ceremony that according to her Christian beliefs was a blasphemous travesty. (more…)
