(Via Stutzman and Weiner @ Orlando Sentinel)  Despite all the investigation, public outrage and scrutiny over the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, at least one major piece of evidence has not yet been thoroughly analyzed: his cellphone.

Presented as if the “cellphone” sits unattended in a vacuum closet – tearfully waiting for someone, anyone, to just ask it a few simple questions.

Police found it at the scene the night Trayvon was shot, its battery dead. Authorities tried but failed to download data from the phone, then asked his father, Tracy Martin, for the security code so they could unlock it.   They didn’t get the code and turned the phone over to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

They didn’t get the code because on Monday March 5th (note the date this is the monday following the funeral services and internment – the same Monday Ryan Julison became the Media Consultant for the plan, “the scheme”.)  Tracy Martin said he needed to talk to his attorney “Benjamin Crump” first.    Why?

(The Hill via GWP) Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) infuriated Republicans during the campaign with his harsh partisan attacks and now faces the delicate task of mending his relationship with the GOP.

Some Republicans say Reid poisoned his relationship with their party by waging controversial attacks against GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney. They were most angered by Reid’s charge that Romney had not paid taxes in ten years, attributing the information to an anonymous source. (more…)

The United Food and Commercial Workers Union (UFCW) used five busses to ship in protesters to Wal Mart at Landover Maryland they walked circles for about an hour for the TV cameras then left…

ROFLMAO – “Occupy Palm Beach County” joins picket line…  😀

In Orlando a one woman protest, Lisa Lopez, joined with re-elected congressman Alan Grayson.   At least one worker went out on strike at stores in Ocean City, Md.; Orlando, and Baton Rouge.    The Huffington Post reported that 70 Los Angeles Walmart workers from nine stores walked off the job Thursday (avg 8 per store) in what the news site “hyped as” the first walkout by workers in multiple stores in the retailer’s 50-year history.

(AFP) – Denied the right to travel without consent from their male guardians and banned from driving, women in Saudi Arabia are now monitored by an electronic system that tracks any cross-border movements.

Since last week, Saudi women’s male guardians began receiving text messages on their phones informing them when women under their custody leave the country, even if they are travelling together.

Manal al-Sherif, who became the symbol of a campaign launched last year urging Saudi women to defy a driving ban, began spreading the information on Twitter, after she was alerted by a couple. (more…)

When you peel all of the toxic propaganda skin from the onion of public opinion, you recognize more and more the institutional leftist legacy “media” is the enemy of this republic.

Show me a challenging current day issue of public interest, any issue, and I will prove to you root of the cancer infecting the United States of America is the media. – Yes, it is that bad.

The extent of the media manipulation toward the position of the “collectivist” is so bad there is no longer a single ‘event’, significant or otherwise, they will not try to mold to fit their ideological view of the world.

The latest example is the creme filled sponge cake – The Twinkie. (more…)

President Obama’s core, his center, his essence, is not as simple as viewing him as a classic leftist/progressive in the FDR model.   To really understand, and subsequently be able to predict his future activity you have to understand his Global Leftism.

In part driven by his upbringing, and in part driven by his associations, and in part driven by his own self-created values and beliefs.   When you listen to his words, watch his behaviors, understand his purposes and intents, watch his jealousies (Clinton Global Initiative), and understand the well written psychologies behind his endeavors, you recognize his approach is more mentally academic than I believe people give him credit for.

President Obama believes the stuff he has developed an affection for.  He truly does.   That’s not to say the policies that flow from it are appropriate, reasonable or even well constructed, indeed most are not.   But what they “are” is predictable. (more…)

(Via AP)  Hostess Brands Inc. lived to die another day.  The maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs said late Tuesday that it failed to reach an agreement with its second-biggest union. As a result, Hostess plans to continue with a hearing on Wednesday in which a bankruptcy court judge in White Plains, N.Y., will decide if the company can shutter its operations.

The renewed talks between Hostess and The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union came after the company declared last week that it would move to wind down its business and start selling off its assets in bankruptcy court. The company cited a crippling strike that was started on Nov. 9 by the union, which represents 30 percent of Hostess workers. (more…)
