Stop me when you have heard this before.   A 22-year old white guy was riding his bike home from work, minding his own business, when a 16-year-old thug ran up to him and started stabbing him repea…….
CLEARWATER, Fla. – Clearwater Police announced the arrest of 16-year-old Mychal King on Thursday. He is accused in the January murder of Jason Taylor Paul, the city’s first homicide of 2013.
Police said King admitted to killing Paul for no reason other than he had a hard day with his family that night of January 6, and “just wanted to kill the first person he saw.”
Police say 22-year-old Jason Taylor Paul was stabbed multiple times while riding his bike home from work late.
Jason’s parents, John and Renee Langfritz had been distraught since the news of Paul’s death, and desperate for closure, even offering a $10,000 reward for information. (more…)

In 1986 Libyan diplomats, acting at the specific instruction of Libyan leader Qaddafi, sent a bomb expert, Yasser Chraidi, from Tripoli to East Berlin.   Chraidi was a member of The Libyan People’s Bureau (LPB).   Driving a Volkswagen Golf bearing East German diplomatic license plates, Chraidi then left East Berlin and traveled through Checkpoint Charlie into West Berlin.
He constructed and hid his device in an apartment belonging to a Palestinian student.   On April 5th 1986 the bomb was delivered to an apartment beloging to Ali Chaana.   His wife, Verena Chaana, and her sister Andrea, took the bomb to Friedenau, a district in West Berlin, where they walked in to “La Belle”, a popular Black hip-hop style nightclub.    It was shortly after 1:00am and the place was packed.

About McDonald’s, $15/hour wages and much more, BigFur shares:

Nothing is a distraction. It’s all part of being fundamentally  transformed. The punches are being thrown in a windmill fashion, and some may  hurt more than others, but it’s the same assault.

I don’t buy the notion that any single issue that burns our ass hairs is a  distraction. That’s actually an insulting elitist charge. It implies that  “you don’t know what’s really going on but I do.”

The people who read  political blogs know what’s going on. The people who don’t don’t care and/or  are Obama voters. Our job is to get them to care.

The “one big picture”  story that the “clued in people know what’s what” posted over, and over, and over  again, is fruitless.

You capture the hearts and minds of people over time when you show them lots  of examples of our destructive march leftward. You never know what’s going to  resonate with the otherwise disinterested. It might be a story about how PETA  is actually more cruel to animals than they let on.

THAT’S WHY THIS EXAMPLE IS IMPORTANT – CLICK HERE

When ever you want to know what direction the left-wing limo liberals want the Decepticons to take, all you need to do is watch Joe Scarborough.   That’s what makes his recent pontifications about his hurt fee fees so funny.

(Via Mediaite)  On Friday’s Morning Joe, the hosts and guests of the program argued over the direction the Republican Party needs to take in order to become a viable national party again. The conversation veered from what important traits a GOP presidential candidate should have to whether Joe Scarborough himself embodied those traits. Democratic strategist James Carville argued that Scarborough was too moderate for his party, but Scarborough disagreed. He said that a few “Cheeto crunchers on blogs” dislike him, but he more often hears Republicans praise him and “thank God” for his commentary. (more…)

“Joshua is not that person,” Reddin’s mother said, after seeing the video for the first time.
“That’s really not him,” McKnight’s dad said. “That’s not his character.”
“If someone had told me that, and I had not seen that, I wouldn’t believe it,” said Khemradj’s grandfather, who is raising the boy.

CLEARWATER — There was a Jeykll and Hyde quality to Thursday’s court proceedings, where three 15-year-old boys pleaded guilty to beating a 13-year-old student on a school bus last month.

The boys appeared remorseful and respectful, their heads sometimes bowed.
It was all “Yes, sir” and “No, sir,” sometimes in unison, as Circuit Judge Raymond Gross painstakingly asked them a series of questions after their attorneys announced the trio would be pleading guilty in the July 10 beating.
But then Assistant State Attorney William Schopper asked that the video of the attack — the one that’s gone viral and turned the Gulfport school bus assault attack into a national story — be shown before Gross decided on a punishment.

In it, one of the boys, Joshua Reddin, is seen sitting behind the victim, snarling expletives. Soon, another boy, Julian McKnight, moves from his assigned seat, toward the back of the bus, to the front, near the victim. The pair pocket their cell phones and straighten out their clothing before they and the third boy, Lloyd Khemradj, pounce on the victim. (more…)

(Via National Review)  At a town-hall event in Chantilly, Va., yesterday, Gutiérrez told attendees that while he has objections to the immigration bill passed by the Senate earlier this year, he would “vote for that proposal today . . . even under those harsh conditions” rather than not pass anything. He went on to list a series of cautionary tales about the tragedy that would result should Congress fail to pass an immigration bill:

“Today, someone is going to die in that desert, trying to return to their families, women and men are going to die in that desert; someone’s going to lose a finger, a hand, an eye, a life today because an unscrupulous employer is going to put them in harm’s way, someone’s going to die; there’s a woman that’s going to be raped in a field somewhere in America today because she has no rights in this country, and we need to end that; there are children who are going to cry and there are marriages that are going to be destroyed because someone is going to be deported, and there are going to be children that are going to be left orphaned in this country.”  (link)

Quite a kerfuffle amid the media scoopers today.    Who really knows the origin of the back story, which has led to this recent news cycle based on the continued liberal goal of isolation, but one thing is certain.   The media are quite happy to broadcast the division.
Shellie Zimmerman gave an interview with ABC News…..

….. or did she?
(more…)

Shellie Zimmerman sat down with ABC for an interview.   ABC of all outlets?   The same organization which manipulates edits in interviews to sell a specific narrative.   Look at what they did to juror B-29.    Why sit down with ABC?   Unreal…..
The article below, which ABC is using as the precursor, is generally the interviewer, Christi O’Conner’s descriptions of what Shellie Zimmerman said.   So take that for what it’s worth….

( VIA ABC ) The Florida investigative journalist who is the first reporter to sit down with George Zimmerman’s wife, Shellie, said that during their “stunning” hour long interview, the acquitted killer’s wife said that her husband has “beaten down her self-esteem,” but she is “looking forward to getting her life back.”
Christi O’Connor spoke with ABCNews.com today about her experience locking down an interview with Shellie Zimmerman as the media focused its attention on her husband, who was acquitted of second-degree murder charges in the death of Trayvon Martin, an unarmed 17-year-old, in Sanford, Fla., in February 2012.

The Grievance Industry said more than 100k would attend.    An average day on the National Mall in DC in August sees about 20,000 – 30,000 tourists.     So today law enforcement estimated the crowd at the Lincoln Memorial around 20,000.  
Think about it.

WASHINGTON DC –  over 100,000 people were expected to show up at today’s ceremonies marking the 50^th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech, late estimates put the crowd numbers at 20,000. Mike Levine of ABC News reported at 2:10 p.m. ET that unofficial crowd estimates from law enforcement sources put the number at “over 20,000.”  (READ MORE)

I’m telling ya, this is de-ja-vu all over again…. As expected, the golfer-in-chief looks into his political 8-ball and says about Syria – pick the course of action that makes me look strong, makes me look good enough, not wanting to be mocked……   Nuf said.    He knows he’s turning this into a win for al-Qaeda, but he needs it to look like he’s magnanimous or something…. 
Remember in Libya, the Golfer even defied his own Office of Legal Council advice, and violated the central restrictions on his own executive power… 

Jeh C. Johnson, the Pentagon general counsel, and Caroline D. Krass, the acting head of the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel, had told the White House that they believed that the United States military’s activities in the NATO-led air war amounted to “hostilities.” Under the War Powers Resolution, that would have required Mr. Obama to terminate or scale back the mission after May 20.  [2012 link]

President Obama ignored them, dispatched them for other advisors who would agree with his own pre-conceived Power/Rice/Clinton/Jarrett agenda.  So essentially, anything goes in his own mind – so long as the politics of it can be steered in his favor…
(Via LA Times)  The apparent poison gas attack that killed hundreds of Syrian civilians last week is testing President Obama’s views on military intervention, international law and the United Nations as no previous crisis has done. (more…)
