Trayvon Martin Killed in Florida, Leftists Don't Care About the Child & Tragedy

Bad reporting, some race hustlers and our racist president. It’s truly sad that an unarmed boy, Trayvon Martin, was shot and killed in Florida. We all know the details since the Jurassic Press gets a story that meets their Leftist templates, in this case race and guns, and worries it to death. The next level of sadness is racist extortionists Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton show up on the scene and make things worse. These two are media whores (not to demean whores) and never ever hesitate to turn tragedy into a media circus with them in the center ring.

Then our racist president chimes in on top of that with stupid personal comments. Obama: "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon." "Obviously, this is a tragedy." "I can only imagine what these parents are going through. And when I think about this boy, I think about my own kids." The President of the United States should not be personalizing such events to such a degree.

The bad reporting from Reuters here includes such ridiculous lines: “Obama, the first black U.S. president…” Really we don’t know that? How about Obama the first black racist president?  “Obama, the son of a white mother from Kansas and black father from Kenya, is often hesitant to reflect on race, a sensitive topic in the United States, which still grapples with a legacy of slavery, segregation and discrimination.” Seriously? He never hesitates to make racist judgments. Remember Henry Louis Gates and Sergeant James Crowley. The black racist Gates caused all sorts of grief for white Sergeant Crowley that was doing his job responding to a possible burglary. Obama was way quick to weigh in on the side of Gates without any info at all. The article described Zimmerman as a “white Hispanic”. Huh? Zimmerman has a Peruvian mother and a white father. Is Obama a white black African-American?

The Leftist Lap Dog Reelect Obama Media, Sharpton, Jackson, Obama and the rest of that group had nothing to say about the story of a thirteen year old white boy in Kansas City that was set on fire on the porch of his house by two black teenagers. Their comment while setting the child on fire: “This is what you deserve. You get what you deserve, white boy.” The kid’s five year old brother asked his mom, “Mom, am I going to get set on fire today?" There are also an increasing number of black gangs waiting for whites coming out of various venues and beating them half to death. Not a word from Obama. Yet he thinks about his own kids in this case, that if he had a son he would look like Trayvon. Obama is race hustler like Sharpton and Jackson.

Jackson commented that people thought electing a Black president would reduce racial tensions were wrong.   "There was this feeling that we were kind of beyond racism." "That's not true. His victory has triggered tremendous backlash." The reason for that is because of people like Jackson, Sharpton and Obama that bring race hatred into the socio-economic equation at every opportunity. Jackson again: "Blacks are under attack." Of course he has had nothing to say about the white kid mentioned above, or the black gangs lying in wait to beat the crap out of whites.

The “New Black Panthers” have issued a death warrant for Zimmerman. The racist US Attorney General, Eric Holder, has in the past refused to prosecute the Panthers because they’re black.  

Of course the Left is already exploiting this tragedy calling for the repeal and Federal intervention in States’  laws. "Stand Your Ground" laws allows people to use deadly force in self-defense. Of course there's another attack on the 2nd Amendment arising from this. The Left, Democrat Party and Obama want to disarm America. The “Stand Your Ground” law doesn’t apply here since Zimmerman pursued Trayvon. Make no nevermind thought, Leftists will pursue it anyway and the re-elect Obama press will promote it.

It’s tragic Trayvon lost his life. It’s horrible. The justice system should be left to do its work without all the race hating race baiting by Leftist Racists and the promotion of it by the Jurassic Press. It should be about the tragic loss of life. 

Collage of Democrats\Leftists Misogyny and Hate Statements

Bozos On The Bus

Firesign Theater was the hottest comedy troupe/act in the early 1970's. Odd, psychedelic, weird, offbeat, creative and amazing. One of the founders, Peter Bergman has passed, and I was reminded of how great their work was. I had mentioned to a friend one of their scenes just a few days ago. The main bar we hung out at in college was called Bozo's Bus Stop from their album "I Think We're All Bozos On This Bus". My favorite character by them was Nick Danger, Third Eye.

   


   This is just part 1. The rest of their work can of course be found on You Tube.                                                                                                           

http://youtu.be/q5XfXECpU6w

Some of their other albums included "Waiting for the Electrician Or Someone Like Him," "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me the Pliers," "How Can You Be in Two Places At Once When You're Not Anywhere At All".

Bergman was born in 1939, attended Yale and had a degree in economics, got in a lot of trouble there for his antics on the campus radio station, and parlayed that into a career.

Pink Slime?

The USDA approves of this and has bought or is planning to buy seven million pounds of this stuff. Meanwhile a student was forced by a school to eat at the cafeteria because some knucklehead there said the kid's sack lunch made by mom wasn't nutritious enough. That kid was made to eat chicken nuggets instead. Who knows what that is. I've looked at a chicken, and didn't see any nugget parts.

Sarah Palin on Obama Accepting Bill Maher's Dirty Money

I've chronicled the misogynistic hatred of women the Left practices and articulates for years. Let's hope these chickens come home to roost, to paraphrase and beloved icon of the Left, racist and anti-Semite Jeremiah Wright. Their same attitude applies to women.
  
http://youtu.be/LE-neACt-To

Besides Maher continually calling Palin a cunt and a twat and making up stories about how stupid she is, we have this other piece of work, Louis CK:
"...her fucking retard making cunt"..."the baby that just came out of her fucking disgusting cunt"...and just "...stick your tit in its mouth and shut up".
Mocking a woman that decided to have a baby with Downs, to raise and love. Seriously.

This has been going on for years. Chickens.

Senator Johnson Questions Sebelius Regarding Obamacare Cost Estimates

One would think, having been a governor that she would have a better grasp of the costs/budget of her department. Ummmmm, did she used to work for Enron? This is a continuation of first female ex-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's 'we'll have to pass it to see what's in it'. We, Conservatives and Republicans know what's in it, these Statists keep passing on fiction as truth and reality. If any of us knew so little about our job, we'd be fired.

What waivers? Good grief.

More On Racist and Obama Friend Derrick Bell

The things Obama has said about whites in his books, that he spent 20 years in a racist anti-Christian church, and now with this info about Derrick Bell and his friendship can only conclude the  racism of Obama runs even deeper than previously thought.


Barack Obama: “White folks greed runs a world in need.”

What The Frack Is Up With Fracking Anyway?

It’s been made abundantly clear that the Democrat Party, Barack Obama and their environmental supporters do not want affordable energy for US citizens, energy sector jobs, or to reduce oil imports from countries that hate and want to destroy the United States. Besides putting the kibosh on the Keystone pipeline, shutting down energy production on federal lands and offshore, they’re against fracking. The federal lands bit is important because Obama and his energy people are claiming production is up in America, and it is, but only on private land. He then takes credit for increasing oil and gas production. Energy Sec Steven Chu in 2008: "Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe." Last I heard gas there was around $8 per gallon. Then there was Obama’s comment his energy policies would necessarily raise energy prices.

The Leftists want everybody to do with less; less energy, gas, utilities, housing, oil, freedom, income. But they want to do with more; taxes, spending, regulation, curtailing the Constitution, and living large on the citizens' dime. That they want to not only curtail fracking, but stop it all together, indicates to me it must be a good thing.

Leftists would have us believe this process of getting energy from the ground irreparably destroys the environment. Here’s how the process works. There are giant machines that look like robots that drill holes 5 inches in diameter a few thousand feet down. That’s where the gas shale is. Here’s an amazing bit of technology; it turns 90 degree and continues on. Now that the pipe is in there, it pumps sand and water at high pressure and it fractures the shale releasing the gas. The fractures are measured in millimeters.  The water opens the fractures and the sand keeps them open. When I worked as a roughneck, we pumped “mud” while we drilled that kept the hole open. There’s some other chemicals called biocides that work like chlorine in a pool. It keeps bacteria and algae from growing. There are a few other chemicals added into the mix, like polymers to keep things from getting sticky.

The Democrat Party, Leftists, Barak Obama, Steven Chu, environmentalists and the rest of course get all up because of the chemicals, and they claim it gets in the ground water. It’s pretty tough for that to happen since the aquifers are separated by impermeable rock of several hundred feet. I know from my oil patch experience there’s some tough rock down there. We would have to trip out (pulling the bit out is called a trip), change to a harder bit, and the drilling would slow to a crawl. Hated that part because we had to do make work during that time. The actually drilling was much more exciting.

The biggest challenge is what to do with all that water that has sand and chemicals in it. Anti energy Leftists would have you believe it’s just pumped out onto the ground and seeps back in polluting everything. Doesn’t happen. Just a side note, some other chemicals already in the ground gets activated, such as potassium salts and arsenic to name a couple. There’s no denying there’ some very bad stuff, combining to make some worse stuff. Leftists are concerned about how to dispose of all that nasty concoction. Because they don’t bother to keep up with energy technology they have the idea that drilling is the same now as back in the original boom days. Of course it’s not, but that doesn’t fit into their regressive nihilist worldview. It's not disposed by just pumping it out onto the ground.

The gunky nasty water is actually processed and cleaned. After the nastiness is removed, the cleaned water is used again. Recycling! Actually the EPA has enthusiastically approved the process. Of course the Jurassic Press won’t report this. The fracking industry has done everything, and then some, going above and beyond environmental controls and processing.

One last note on the process. A lot of the machines doing the fracking are solar powered. 

Dems Still Causing Political and Economic Mayhem in Wisconsin

Gov Scott Walker

The recall of Gov Scott Walker of Wisconsin has become something of a mess. The national unions and the Democrat Party pulled together a massive national effort to recall Gov Walker because he’s done what he said during the campaign he was going to do. You know, something stupid and irresponsible like paying down the state’s debt and increasing employment.

Where the mess comes in, and I’m not talking about the mess these Leftist goons did destroying millions of dollars of property during their protests and breaking a lot of laws they didn’t get punished for, but the election mess. Wisconsin has a lot of elections coming up. There’s a primary May 1^st, and a general election on May 29^th. Then there’s the presidential primary April 3^rd. The state election board has given two dates for the recall vote, which besides Gov Walker includes five Republicans, May 15 and June 12. Republicans, to reduce costs (these things cost lost of money) want to roll the recall votes into one.

The national Leftist political machine wants two different recall dates. Leftist Attorney Jeremy Levinson: "That seems totally unreasonable and unnecessary and it would change the character of the election." Since Leftists are irresponsible about money (because they only use other people’s money) they see this as a political ploy by Republicans. All those elections and two recall votes are a bit much, in terms of both fiscal and time costs. I know Leftists don’t understand people that actually have to go to work, but this could seriously cut into citizens’ day.

 Wisconsin Democrat hard at work protesting 

When Walker ran for governor, he said he would curtail the collective bargaining power of government employees unions, which he did. If you’ll remember, this was the whole source of the“occupy” mess (literal mess with $millions of property damage and garbage resulting), and yet one of the Leftists planning to run against Walker, Kathleen Falk, said Walker was dishonest because he didn’t talk about curtailing state employee unions’ bargaining power. Problem is there were several articles in the Sentinel during the campaign about his saying just that.

All this stupid stuff from the Democrats, supported by the national Democrat Party, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, national unions, of Democrat state legislators fleeng the state to avoid voting, occupied and filled the capitol building with filth and garbage causing $millions in damage, lots of arrests, some violence, tried to get a judge recalled and failed, then created this election mess. All the Republicans did was campaign, win office and implement what they said they were going to do. No violence, no property damage, no political cowardice.

Of course the Democrats are upset. The state debt is going down, employment is going up, and kids are getting educated. The horror!

All this could be avoided if we went back to states being states, and not wards of the federal government and all the other interventions into states by national entities. My view is there should be no money from outside sources into the politics of a state. Local politicians and the state political party should only get money locally. States have personalities, are the reflection of the people that live there. That gets corrupted when big, usually East coast money, gets pumped in. Unions should do not belong in the public sector. If one works for the government, that’s working for the citizens, and what they can afford. The pay and benefits even without unions are usually higher than the public sector, and if they don’t like it, they can go work in the private sector and join a union there.

Derrick Bell, Critical Race Theory and Re-Elect Obama Press

This stupid woman posing as a journalist and as informed interviewer descends into the dregs of cover up and racism, lies and distortion. Note Soledad O’Brien’s definition of Critical Race Theory. It’s the first line of the Wikipedia entry on the subject. Obviously she didn’t read any further. Her witchy whiney sing songy condescending voice shows just how stupid and invested she is in this Obama is a god and could do no wrong narrative


Bell: “I prefer using stories as a means of communicating views to those who hold very different views on the emotionally charged subject of race. People enjoy stories and will often suspend their beliefs, listen to the story, and then compare their views, not with mine, but with those expressed in the story.”  The idea by the racists positing their vile theory using fiction rather than facts and analysis. “I do not consider my stories a major departure in legal education. The use of hypotheticals is a staple of discussion in law school classrooms. In addition, final examinations are generally presented in a series of fictional facts out of which law students are expected to recognize and apply legal precedents to support their conclusions. Building on this foundation, I began extending these fictional stories to reflect the contradictions and dilemmas faced by those attempting to apply legal rules to the many forms of racial discrimination. “

Relying more on fiction than fact, Bell wrote “Space Traders” in which aliens offer solutions to all our environmental and economic problems in exchange for giving them all the black people on the planet. Jews stand by and acquiesce. The whole thing about Liberation Theology and Black Liberation Theology taught by Jeremiah Wright and Derrick Bell is its anti Semitism. Remember Obama and his family spent twenty years in Wright’s church listening to anti American, anti White, anti Semitic, and anti Christian rants, then denied he ever heard such things.

I’ll be writing more bringing together Liberation Theology and Critical Race Theory. They are of a piece. Obama was never vetted. We know the grades of every presidential candidate except Obama’s. We know every little thing about all the presidents, especially GW Bush. We don’t know much about Obama, because we haven’t seen the papers Obama had to have written in college and most especially the Law Review where it’s said he was the editor. How can one be an editor of a magazine and not write anything? This tape Brietbart released was suppressed, as noted in the display of Leftist stupidity and race baiting in the last election, along with much else. This kind of thing shouldn't be the main thing for the upcoming election, but should be a part of it. Obama should be vetted just like any other candidate. It should have happened the last election, but what else do you expect from a press corp that is stupid and ideological? 

Obama’s horrible record as a president, and if he were a Republican with sky rocketing gas prices, increasing utility and energy bills, nine percent unemployment, the whole of the Middle East being taken over by Islamofacists, and all the rest of it, the Re-elect Obama Press would be screaming bloody murder. Obama was raised and mentored by communists, fascists, racists, and terrorists. His presidential decisions are founded in this, and he doesn’t own up to what he is. Leftists can’t. If they did they would say, “We believe in a strong central government and our intent is to control your health, your income, your housing, the car you drive, and what you eat  (legislation recently submitted would limit the amount of sugar Americans would be allow to consume, and it wasn’t submitted by a Republican), and how you worship (if they will allow it).   

  

My Apology to President Karzai on Behalf of Americans

Great apology unless you're a Leftist and support Obama's foreign policy. Sweet twists of irony and sarcasm.

"I Owe You an Update" Cardinal Dolan

This is an excerpt from Cardinal Dolan, written March 1.  Full letter here. I would go a step further; this isn't just about religious freedom either, it's about freedom from the government mandating how we live our lives. Statists have taken how we take care of our bodies away from us with ObamaCare, and they're using ObamaCare to oppress religious freedom. 

“This has not been a fight of our choosing.  We’d rather not be in it.  We’d prefer to concentrate on the noble tasks of healing the sick, teaching our youth, and helping the poor, all now in jeopardy due to this bureaucratic intrusion into the internal life of the church.  And we were doing all of those noble works rather well, I dare say, without these radical new mandates from the government.  The Catholic Church in America has a long tradition of partnership with government and the wider community in the service of the sick, our children, our elders, and the poor at home and abroad.  We’d sure rather be partnering than punching.

Nor is this a “Catholic” fight alone.  As a nurse from Harrison emailed me, “Cardinal, I’m not so much mad about all this as a Catholic, but as an American.”  It was a Baptist minister, Governor Mike Huckabee, who observed, “In this matter, we’re all Catholics.”

And it is not just about sterilization, abortifacients, and chemical contraception.  Pure and simple, it’s about religious freedom, the sacred right, protected by our constitution, of any Church to define its own teaching and ministry.

When the President announced on January 20th that the choking mandates from HHS would remain — a shock to me, since he had personally assured me that he would do nothing to impede the good work of the Church in health care, education, and charity, and that he considered the protection of conscience a sacred duty — not only you, but men and women of every faith, or none at all, rallied in protest.  The worry that we bishops had expressed — that such government control was contrary to our deepest political values — was eloquently articulated by constitutional scholars and leaders of every creed.  Even newspaper editorials supported us!

On February 10th, the President announced that the insurance providers would have to pay the bill, not the Church’s schools, hospitals, clinics, or vast network of charitable outreach.  He considered this “concession” adequate.

The President invited us to “work out the wrinkles,” and we have been taking him seriously.  Unfortunately, this seems to be going nowhere: the White House Press Secretary, for instance, informed the nation that the mandates are a fait accompli (and, embarrassingly for him, commented that we bishops have always opposed Health Care anyway, a charge that is simply scurrilous and insulting). The White House already notified Congress that the dreaded mandates are now published in the Federal Registry “without change.” The Secretary of HHS is widely quoted as saying, “Religious insurance companies don’t really design the plans they sell based on their own religious tenets,” which doesn’t bode well for a truly acceptable “accommodation.”  And a recent meeting between staff of the bishops’ conference and the White House staff ended with the President’s people informing us that the broader concerns of religious freedom — that is, revisiting the straight-jacketing mandates, or broadening the maligned exemption—are all off the table.  Instead, they advised the bishops’ conference that we should listen to the “enlightened” voices of accommodation, such as the recent hardly-surprising but terribly unfortunate editorial in America.  The White House seems to think we bishops are hopelessly out of touch with our people, and with those whom the White House now has nominated as official Catholic teachers.

So, I don’t know if we’ll get anywhere with the executive branch.”
