Mark Potok of the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center claimed on Monday's Newsroom on CNN that radical Islam wasn't "our biggest domestic terror threat," that instead, "that pretty clearly comes from the radical right in this country." Anchor Suzanne Malveaux touted Potok as "expert on extremism" from "one of the most highly regarded non-governmental operations that are monitoring hate groups."Christians also blow people up, according to these expert types. Of course, the term "Christian" doesn't mean Christian, per se, as much as home grown problem. Any nut murderer is assumed to be Christian. Of course, any terrorist is not assumed to be Islamist, according to our government.
In other instances of reality disconnect, Obamacare continues to issue waivers to itself at an astound race to guess who? The people who paid for the propaganda to pass it and pummeled others into accepting it. Daily Caller:
In fact, since Upton first requested documentation from Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius in late January, the administration has issued 307 more Obamacare waivers, 47 of which for labor unions. That brings the total number of waivers to 1,040. Labor unions received 269 of those.
That means unions received about 26 percent of all waivers the administration has given out, but only about 12 percent of workers nationwide are unionized.Although all eyes have been on the shenanigans in Wisconsin, Ohio is the first to begin passage of the anti-union bill. Pajamas Media has the consternation felt by the Democrats as they realize that those who lost their union jobs no longer feel so sympathetic toward the union pensions their neighbors get, indeed a result of the class warfare so encouraged by the likes of Michael Moore types. Pajamas:
Certainly, Wisconsin was the first to reveal the disconnect between working class voters and government unions, but it will not be the last. With states facing deep debt and generously paid government workers, it now appears that traditionally pro-union households are prepared to adopt an anti-union stance. If so, there is the possibility the Midwest may become a new conservative coalition with pro-union working class families, a seismic political revolution.And in the UK, which is rapidly winding down, we learn that its residents won't have full command of their electricity in the future. Why? Because the UK is going to be depending on windmills to meet global warming regulations and guess what no one realized. The wind doesn't always blow. Huh. Seriously. That means the government gets to decide who gets power (WE THE GOVT) and who doesn't (YOU PEASANTS). Read at Pajamas Tatler:
UK electricity CEO: Get used to not having any electricity, suckas!
Steve Hollliday is the UK’s power czar, basically. He’s the CEO of National Grid. He is predicting that, because the UK is moving to more wind-generated electricity to meet government emissions targets, residents will end up with less access to electricity. And they’d better learn to like it!
The grid is going to be a very different system in 2020, 2030,” he told BBC’s Radio 4. “We keep thinking that we want it to be there and provide power when we need it. It’s going to be much smarter than that.
By which he actually means that First World UK will get a barely functional, and hideously expensive, Third World power grid. Win the future!Hey, let's just kill ourselves! Then the dogs can have the planet to themselves!
Oh, and this being Tuesday, a Democrat congressman has been accused of harassment....of the sexual kind.
Whatcha wanna bet he doesn't immediately retire in shame, like a Republican.
Whatcha wanna bet the MSM ignores it.
Whatcha wanna bet he pays her off and goes on his merry way.
Rep. Hastings. What a peice of work! Can you imagine an impeached federal judge running on the GOP ticket?
ReplyDeleteIndiana's fleebaggers say they may stay gone the entire session. Indiana legislators serve 60 days the first year and 30 days the second year.They are paid up front, $22,600 and $155 per diem. So they got their money and there is very little anyone can do. There is no mechanism in the state constitution for removing a legislator. Of course Indiana won't have a budget and when that happens I think the 'it will hit the fan.
Uhhhhhh and you gotta REAL LOSER in the DICK Luger....he can't go along with the lousy joke cuts. First it's a joke that anyone would label the Republican cuts as "steep." Second it's a joke that it's a political RISK to try to balance this budget and stop the insane spending.
ReplyDeleteAnd Hastings? Hey, it's not like as a Democrat he tried to money in his freezer. Oh, wait. Or was a COKE addict or anything. Oh,
But I digress.
Yeah, you got REAL problems in Indiana.
Look at the bright side.
This will boost the tea party's stock in your state. This is SUCH a bad message to send to the voters that people will get disgusted.
And I think Republicans (if they were smart, which they're not) should use this time to pass all kinds of laws, controversial laws like VOTER ID laws.
Lugar won't survive the primary.The present Secretary of State, Richard Murdock will beat him. The Tea Party was very successful last round. There is only one winable congressional seat left (the 2nd-lost by about 1700 votes). The 1st & 7th (Indianapolis & Gary) are too blue without some serious gerrymandering. Coats wouldn't have won the primary except the Tea Party was split geographically. We in southern Indiana liked Hostettler; in the north they liked Stuzman. The senate is 37-13 Republican; the lower house is 60-40 with two rino senators and a Republican governor. Unlike Lugar, Coats does know where his bread is buttered we just have to work to keep him humble.
ReplyDeleteAnd good riddance. I wasn't sure about Coats. Some of those RINOs need to be shown the door and to let another one back in is a travesty. I'm beginning to doubt ANY of them have the fortitude it takes to clean up this mess. As Rush says, the only ones with nads in the Republican party are wearing skirts.
ReplyDeleteYep, I hope Sarah or Michele runs.
