Governor Walker was in Springfield , Illinois today. The unions had their stooges there to give him a warm welcome. Go figure, a governor from a state that is getting it's budget in order gets a protest in a state that is rapidly failing.

GOP SENATORS TAKE OBAMA TO COURT OVER NLRB APPOINTMENTS CRAMDOWN
Today, Senate Republicans hired Miguel Estrada, the 2002 judicial nominee for the DC Circuit Court of Appeals filibustered by Senate Democrats, to press a lawsuit against the Obama administration. The lawsuit itself is based on President Obama’s non-recess “recess appointment†of political allies to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which oversees management-union relations; it was originally filed by Noel Canning, a soft-drink business owner who sued the NLRB over its ruling that the company had to work with a labor union.

Illinois Shows What Not to Do
Wise Wisconsin isn’t imitating its spendthrift neighbor.
In January 2011, facing a forbidding budget deficit and a backlog of unpaid bills, Illinois officials decided that a massive tax increase would lay the groundwork for the state’s recovery. As Barbara Flynn Currie, the majority leader in the state house of representatives, said at the time, the nearly $7 billion in new revenues would allow Illinois to “pay our old bills and deal with the structural deficit.†The taxes passed with little controversy. Several weeks later, Wisconsin governor Scott Walker proposed fixing state and local fiscal problems by narrowing public-sector workers’ collective bargaining rights and requiring them to contribute more to their pension and health-care benefits. His reforms, which took months to become law, provoked an occupation of the capitol and set off a national debate.
Little more than a year has passed, and Illinois is right back where it started: the state’s unpaid bills now top $9 billion. Meantime, Wisconsin’s state and local governments have made substantial strides toward long-term budget stability. The different fiscal outlooks of the neighboring states illustrate a crucial fact in today’s budget wars: you can’t tax your way to a better future. That’s because the promises made by previous generations of politicians to public employees and special interests have become, as one northeastern mayor colorfully put it, the “Pac-Man†of budgets, gobbling up revenues faster than governments can raise them.
Illinois has emerged as a poster child for fiscal irresponsibility. With its legislature beholden to public-sector unions, Illinois has long avoided financing state workers’ pensions out of its own budget. Instead, the state skips its contributions into retirement funds in some years and borrows money to finance the pensions in others. Since 2003, Illinois has floated more than $15 billion in pension-obligation bonds rather than pay for workers’ benefits out of its annual budget. Even with the borrowing, Illinois has one of the worst-funded pension systems in the country. One study estimates that the system could run out of money by the end of the decade.

Congratulations to Juan Williams son who was named 1 of the 10 Black Republicans You Should Know:
RAPHAEL “RAFFI†WILLIAMS
Williams is one of the smartest young guys coming up in the Republican Party. A recent graduate of Haverford College in Pennsylvania, He is currently Communications Director at Benishek for Congress. He left a position of Staff Assistant for the House Rules Committee to go on the campaign trail. Within 10-15 years, I expect him to manage a Republican presidential campaign. Williams will definitely be a “go to†political operative within the next couple of years.
Here's the list of the others listed:

Juan Williams’ Wife: NPR Liberals Are Hypocrites
Delise Williams, the wife of Fox News contributor Juan Williams, tells Newsmax that “so-called liberals†at NPR treated her — a light-skinned African-American — as if she didn’t exist.
“The NPR people were hypocrites because they are supposed to be the liberals who are accepting of all kinds of people and inclusive, and they were the most exclusive group in my experience of going to events related to work that I have ever seen,†says Delise, a former social worker who is the daughter of a doctor.
In the meantime, Delise says that she and Juan were the only blacks at NPR parties, a point confirmed by Juan. In general, both say, African-Americans were found only in low level jobs such as security guards.
But because she felt NPR personnel treated her like a second-class citizen, she says she stopped going to NPR social gatherings.
In contrast to NPR, “Even though politically I’m on the other side, the Fox people, included me much more in the interactions and in the gatherings, and I never felt like I was on the outside,†Delise says.
“The Fox gatherings are much diverse,†she says. “They have both African-American and whites. It’s great because when I sometimes go down to Fox and wait for Juan in the green room, they all speak to me as if they know me and are very friendly. I feel very comfortable there. With the NPR people, I did not feel comfortable.â€
Fox News has never told Juan what he could or could not say, she says. In contrast, NPR constantly criticized him when he expressed views that diverged from what they thought a black man should think, Delise says.
NPR consists of “pseudo-liberals,†Delise says. “I think liberal means being tolerant. You may have a certain set of beliefs, but you do not reject someone who may have a different set of beliefs or who looks different.â€

Democratic Senator Joe Manchin Says He May Not Vote For Obama
by Noah Rothman 12:10 pm, April 20th, 2012
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), who won a special election in 2010 to serve the remainder of the late Sen. Robert Byrd’s term and is up for reelection this year, says that he is considering voting for the presumptive Republican nominee in November and not President Obama.
National Journal reported on Thursday that Manchin, a centrist Democrat “who has done more than any other Democrat up for reelection this year to distance himself from President Obama†is weighing his options.
“The people in West Virginia, they basically look at the candidates—whatever you’re running for, whether it be the president itself, or whatever—[they look at] the performance and the result that’s been attained,†Manchin said when asked how he will vote. “Right now in West Virginia, these first three and a half years haven’t been that good to West Virginia. So, then you look [at] what the options will be, who will be on the other end.â€

Democrats Joining G.O.P. on Pipeline
By JENNIFER STEINHAUER
Published: April 19, 2012
WASHINGTON — President Obama is finding himself increasingly boxed in on the Keystone pipeline fight as more Congressional Democrats are joining Republicans in backing the project, which has strong labor support and could generate significant numbers of jobs in economically hard-hit states.
On Wednesday, the House passed a short-term transportation bill that included a provision that would pave the way for the construction of the next stage of the oil pipeline, a measure that Mr. Obama has said he would veto. The bill passed 293 to 127, with 69 Democrats supporting it.
It is the fourth time the House has passed a measure to expedite the project; one failed narrowly in the Senate only after Mr. Obama personally lobbied some Democrats to vote no. With the House vote, Mr. Obama finds himself, for the first time in his presidency, threatening a veto on a significant piece of legislation that enjoys the support of an increasing number of Democrats, as well as the vast majority of Republicans in Congress.
With gas prices sticking near $4 a gallon, unemployment high in many states and demonstrable support for the project in numerous polls, many Democrats — especially those from states where pipelines are commonplace — are beginning to sound almost indistinguishable from Speaker John A. Boehner, who called Mr. Obama “increasingly isolated†in his opposition to expanding the project.
Representative Dennis Cardoza, a California Democrat who voted for the House measure, said he would be happy to vote to override a veto if needed. He said: “I think the president has made a very serious mistake here. I’m still supporting the president. But we have to do what’s right.â€

Never happen. He has carved out a hugely lucrative niche as a black liberal who speaks on the air with impeccable diction and grammar.
A non-ebonics black liberal is as rare as hens' teeth, and it's made him rich.
Whatever he privately thinks about politics isn't important, and he'll never admit it if he really does have a civilized personal philosophy.

Not to mention the left would start their usual slurs towards Juan if he switched parties. He's more valuable to conservatives if he stays a DemonRat, and voices disagreement with the left at times.

He has stated a "civilized personal philosophy". It's why NPR fired him and why most liberals hate him.

Science: GOP voters better informed, open-minded
Yet another new survey shows that Republican supporters know more about politics and political history than Democrats.
On eight of 13 questions about politics, Republicans outscored Democrats by an average of 18 percentage points, according to a new Pew survey “Partisan Differences in Knowledge.â€
The Pew survey adds to a wave of surveys and studies showing that GOP-sympathizers are better informed, more intellectually consistent, more open-minded, more empathetic and more receptive to criticism than their fellow Americans who support the Democratic Party.
“Republicans fare substantially better than Democrats on several questions in the survey, as is typically the case in surveys about political knowledge,†said the study, which noted that Democrats outscored Republicans on five questions by an average of 4.6 percent.
A March 12 Pew study showed that Democrats are far more likely that conservatives to disconnect from people who disagree with them.
“In all, 28% of liberals have blocked, unfriended, or hidden someone on SNS [social networking sites] because of one of these reasons, compared with 16% of conservatives and 14% of moderates,†said the report, tiled “Social networking sites and politics.â€
The report also noted that 11 percent of liberals, but only 4 percent of conservatives, deleted friends from networks after disagreeing with their politics.
A March Washington Post poll showed that Democrats were more willing to change their views about a subject to make their team look good. For example, in 2006, 73 percent of Democrats said the GOP-controlled White House could lower gas prices, but that number fell by more than half to 33 percent in 2012 once a fellow Democrat was in the White House.
In contrast, the opinions of GOP supporters were more consistent. Their collective opinion shifted by only a third, according to the data. In 2006, 47 percent in believed the White House could influence gas prices. By 2012, that number had risen to 65 percent up 17 points compared to the Democrats’ 40 point shift.
The academics’ work is also being backed up by commercial research into the tastes and political views of potential customers.
For example, researchers have learned that Internet sites offering financial information, sports scores, online-auctions attract far more interest from Republicans than from Democrats, according to a 2010 study by National Media Research, Planning and Placement, based in Alexandria, Va.
In contrast, Democrats outnumber Republicans at online dating sites, job-searches sites, online TV and online video-game sites, said the firm.

Actor Jon Lovitz Explodes At Obama: ‘What A F**king A**hole’ audio
by James Crugnale | 7:20 pm, April 23rd, 2012
Former SNL cast member and star of The Critic Jon Lovitz profanely lit into President Obama during his ABC’s of SNL podcast on Monday.
“This whole thing with Obama saying the rich don’t pay their taxes is ****ing bullshit. And I voted for the guy and I’m a Democrat. What a ****ing asshole,†Lovitz fumed.
“The rich don’t pay their taxes? Let me tell you something, right,†Lovitz added. “First they tell you–you’re dead broke–This is the United States of America, you can do anything you want, go for it. So then you go for it, and then you make it, and everyone’s like, **** you.â€
Co-host Kevin Smith argued with Lovitz that he was unfairly ripping on the 99%, Lovitz fired back by saying the director was “masquerading as a 99%er.â€
Listen to Lovitz’s anti-Obama comments below.

Obama Can Do It All!
By Jonah Goldberg
Brother Geraghty has a great tidbit from Jodi Kantor’s book, The Obamas:
Obama had always had a high estimation of his ability to cast and run his operation. When David Plouffe, his campaign manager, first interviewed for a job with him in 2006, the senator gave him a warning:
“I think I could probably do every job on the campaign better than the people I’ll hire to do it,†he said. “It’s hard to give up control when that’s all I’ve known.†Obama said nearly the same thing to Patrick Gaspard, whom he hired to be the campaign’s political director. “I think I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,†Obama told him. “I know more about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you right now that I’m gonna think I’m a better political director than my political director.â€
Jim has a few other examples. But he forgot one of my favorites. From New York magazine’s John Heilemann
Emanuel’s ad-hocracy, meanwhile, didn’t faze Obama. The president’s friend and adviser Valerie Jarrett sometimes pointed out that not only had he never managed an operation, he’d never really had a nine-to-five job in his life. Obama didn’t know what he didn’t know, yet his self-confidence was so stratospheric that once, in the context of thinking about Emanuel’s replacement, he remarked in all seriousness, “You know, I’d make a good chief of staff.â€
Those overhearing the comment somehow managed to suppress their laughter.
In fairness, even Obama would be an improvement as GSA Director.
-
RE the Jon Lovitz article:
Just reading through those comments, let me say that it's a sad state of affairs when our tax code is so complicated and convoluted, that people can't even have a reasoned debate about it. It's almost all misinformed, unless you're a CPA or tax attorney.
Lurking DUmmies: 1950 tax rates are not relevant because of loopholes and deductions. This simplistic talking point only makes you look stupid and ignorant of history. Math as well.

Beg's link to Jonah Goldberg is priceless. The anointed, immaculate, flawless one should be given every opportunity to further inflate his overinflated ego.

Elizabeth Warren Ancestor Rounded Up Cherokees For Trail of Tears
But the most stunning discovery about the life of O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford is that her husband, Ms. Warren's great-great-great grandfather, was apparently a member of the Tennessee Militia who rounded up Cherokees from their family homes in the Southeastern United States and herded them into government-built stockades in what was then called Ross’s Landing (now Chattanooga), Tennessee—the point of origin for the horrific Trail of Tears, which began in January, 1837.

In the class action suit, the garment workers claim that in addition to the 100 hour work weeks, they faced â€intentional affliction of emotional distress†including being â€regularly called ‘lazy,’ ‘stupid’†among other names and suffering “disparaging references†to their “national origins.†Fearful of being fired, the workers were also allegedly told that â€if anyone complained they would be summarily terminated.†The workers also claim that Wang, who is Taiwanese, had uniformly white managers who discriminated against the workers, who were all Asian and Latino.

NOAM CHOMSKY: SARAH PALIN WAS RIGHT ABOUT OBAMA
Probably the last person you’d expect to cite Sarah Palin favorably is Noam Chomsky. Yet in an interview with the Leftist news organization Democracy Now, Chomsky did precisely that, saying Palin was right to mock Obama for his lack of substance.
“I don’t usually admire Sarah Palin,†Chomsky said, “but when she was making fun of this ‘hopey changey stuff,’ she was right, there was nothing there.â€

Catholic university drops all health-insurance coverage in response to HHS mandate
Campus Health Insurance Policy
The Obama Administration has mandated that all health insurance plans must cover “women’s health services†including contraception, sterilization, and abortion-causing medications as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). Up to this time, Franciscan University has specifically excluded these services and products from its student health insurance policy, and we will not participate in a plan that requires us to violate the consistent teachings of the Catholic Church on the sacredness of human life.
Additionally, the PPACA increased the mandated maximum coverage amount for student policies to $100,000 for the 2012-13 school year, which would effectively double your premium cost for the policy in fall 2012, with the expectation of further increases in the future.
Due to these changes in regulation by the federal government, beginning with the 2012-13 school year, the University 1) will no longer require that all full-time undergraduate students carry health insurance, 2) will no longer offer a student health insurance plan, and 3) will no longer bill those not covered under a parent/guardian plan or personal plan for student health insurance. The current student health insurance plan will expire on August 15, 2012.
We encourage you to decide how you are going to provide for accidents or illnesses requiring visits to physicians, health clinics, or the hospital emergency room while you are a student here. As always, our Health Center on campus will be staffed by a certified nurse practitioner Monday – Friday during normal business hours. No insurance is necessary to receive basic health-related services at the Health Center, and the visits cost only $5 at the time of service. However, if you are referred off campus for further lab testing, physician specialists, X-rays, etc., you will be responsible to pay for those services.
While Studying Abroad
Those who study for a semester in Austria while students at Franciscan will be covered under a different plan—contact the Study Abroad Director for further information. Students will need to waive this plan to avoid being charged for it automatically.
Athletics
Students who participate in intercollegiate sports will be covered under a different plan during all activities related to that athletic endeavor. This plan does not incur a separate fee of its own; it is covered by the fee charged for participation in intercollegiate sports.

Lefty Journal Sentinel endorses Walker!
No governor in recent memory has been so controversial. No governor in America is so polarizing. Everyone has an opinion about Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin.
Here's ours: We see no reason to remove Walker from office. We recommend him in the June 5 recall election.
Walker's rematch with Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett was prompted by one issue: Walker's tough stance with the state's public-employee unions. It's inconceivable that the recall election would be occurring absent that. And a disagreement over a single policy is simply not enough to justify a vote against the governor.
A Marquette Law School Poll in January showed that many people in the Badger State agree. In that poll, 72% of Republicans, 44% of independents and 17% of Democrats said recalls should be limited to criminal wrongdoing. Republican state Rep. Robin Vos has proposed tightening the recall mechanism; he should continue to push for that after the election, regardless of who wins.
Walker brought some of this animosity on himself. He chose an in-your-face style from the start. To his credit, the governor now acknowledges that he did a poor job of building support for his policies. "The one thing if I could go back in time is I would try to spend a little bit more time building the case," he told the Editorial Board earlier this year.

Senate Dems Betray Lilly
Senate Democrats pay female staffers less than male staffers
A group of Democratic female senators on Wednesday declared war on the so-called “gender pay gap,†urging their colleagues to pass the aptly named Paycheck Fairness Act when Congress returns from recess next month. However, a substantial gender pay gap exists in their own offices, a Washington Free Beacon analysis of Senate salary data reveals.
Of the five senators who participated in Wednesday’s press conference—Barbara Mikulski (D., Md.), Patty Murray (D., Wash.), Debbie Stabenow (D., Mich.), Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) and Barbara Boxer (D., Calif.)—three pay their female staff members significantly less than male staffers.
Murray, who has repeatedly accused Republicans of waging a “war a women,†is one of the worst offenders. Female members of Murray’s staff made about $21,000 less per year than male staffers in 2011, a difference of 35.2 percent.
<snipped>
Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D., Ill.) paid men $13,063 more, a difference of 23 percent.
Other notable Senators whose “gender pay gap†was larger than 23 percent:
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.)—47.6 percent
Sen. Jeff Bingaman (D., N.M.)—40 percent
Sen. Jon Tester (D., Mont.)—34.2 percent
Sen. Ben Cardin (D., Md.)—31.5 percent
Sen. Tom Carper (D., Del.)—30.4 percent
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.)–29.7 percent
Sen. Kent Conrad (D., N.D.)–29.2 percent
Sen. Bill Nelson (D., Fla.)—26.5 percent
Sen. Ron Wyden (D., Ore)—26.4 percent
Sen. Tom Harkin (D., Iowa)—23.2 percent
Sen. Sanders, who is an avowed socialist who caucuses with the Democrats, has the worst gender gap by far. He employed more men (14) than women (10), and his chief of staff is male. Like many of his fellow partisans, he has previously accused Republicans of “trying to roll back the clock on women’s rights.â€
One possible explanation for the pay disparity is the noticeable preference among Senate Democrats’ for male chiefs of staff, who typically draw the highest congressional salaries. Of the 46 Democratic Senators listing a chief of staff on their payroll in 2011, 13 were women.

Unions angry with Democrats over lack of help in Wisconsin governor's recall
By Cameron Joseph and Kevin Bogardus - 05/25/12 06:00 AM ET
Top union officials are lashing out at Washington Democrats, claiming they haven't done enough to help them unseat Gov. Scott Walker (R) in Wisconsin's recall election.
President Obama has been silent on the race since his campaign released a statement endorsing Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett (D) immediately after his primary victory two weeks ago. The Obama campaign is helping Barrett with get-out-the-vote operations, but the president has not publicly mentioned the race.
The Democratic National Committee has been similarly tight-fisted. The DNC sent out a fundraising email for Barrett, and DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) will be in Wisconsin for a fundraiser next week, but the national party has refused entreaties to give the state party money.
The election is on June 5, just 10 days away.
International Association of Fire Fighters President Harold Schaitberger acknowledged the DNC’s help on the ground but said a major cash investment would have been worth a lot more.
"I'm very disappointed that the DNC has not seen fit to make a dollar investment," Schaitberger said. "When you're facing $25 million or more in super-PAC funds, you need money. The campaign needed funds to get up on the air to fight back. ... I think that would have been a good investment going into November."

Why Bankers Give Money to Obama
Remember when Comrade Obama ignored the law to reward his union cronies at the expense of secured creditors when the Leviathan gobbled up Chrysler? He’s at it again:
A billionaire Chicago family that has donated and raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for President Obama got a deal from the federal government to avoid paying all of a $460 million settlement it agreed to in the 2001 failure of a Chicago-area bank it owned, while 1,400 former depositors are still owed more than $10 million in lost savings.
And now, 11 years later, the prospect that any of the depositors will get their money back is bleak.
The Pritzker family, which made its fortune in hotels and manufacturing, agreed to a $460 million settlement offer in December 2001 to avoid sanctions and civil lawsuits in the failure of Superior Bank in Hinsdale, Ill.
But after paying $316 million of the interest-free debt, the family quietly struck a deal with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) in June 2011 to discount the balance in return for paying off the debt early.
“We have been stiffed again,†said Fran Sweet, 67, a depositor still owed $70,000. “It is a lot to lose. We are not wealthy people. We are white-collar and blue-collar workers who saved this money, [or] thought we saved this money.â€
John W. Courtney, 67-year-old Vietnam veteran and construction worker still owed $50,000, said, “I worked hard for the money. [The Pritzkers] signed an agreement that got them off the hook, and now they are backpedaling. A deal is a deal. Who gave the FDIC the right to discount the note?â€

Egypt's highest court declares parliament invalid
[Updated at 11:09 a.m. ET] Egypt's highest court on Thursday declared the parliament invalid, and the country's interim military rulers declared full legislative authority, triggering a new level of chaos and confusion in the country's leadership.
The Supreme Constitutional Court also ruled that a former member of President Hosni Mubarak's regime may run in a presidential election runoff this weekend.
The ruling on parliament means that it must be dissolved, state TV reported. An Egyptian constitutional law expert told CNN that following the court's decision, a political decision will be made about what steps to take next.
Parliament had been in session for just over four months.
The court found that all articles making up the law that regulated parliamentary elections are invalid, said Showee Elsayed, a constitutional lawyer.
The Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, in control of the country since Mubarak's ouster, announced that it now has full legislative power and will announce a 100-person assembly that will write the country's new constitution. The court's rulings come a day after Egypt's military-led government imposed a de facto martial law, extending the arrest powers of security forces.

The StatistQuo
I am sure Hillary will express "concern" over these latest developments . . . with a stern letter to follow. The whole world is saying to her and Barack, "I got your reset button right here". Back to square one, guys.
I don't think Obama "bungled" this— His actions indicate this outcome was pretty close to his desire. He hasn't been very concerned about Iran and I don't think he minds another militarized Islamic enemy of Israel— or the United States for that matter! As I recall, he was rooting for the "Arab Spring" not very long ago. Saying he "bungled" national policy this badly implies he is an imbecile. He's not!
Liberty and a republican (not the party but the concept) form of government is European in its origin. An authoritarian regime was best suited to Egypt and when the Islamist s take control, you can bet your life it will be authoritarian, just like Iran. Herein is another example where our president has bungled it, Egypt, which was an ally, now a potential enemy and another "Iran". All of North Africa is going the way of radical Islam, another bungle by Obama. Russia is closely allying itself with Syria beginning to send troops (like Afghanistan in 1980). I was in college during Carters regime, this is like deja vu.
Yea!!! Obama's "democracy" in action.
chalk up one more win for Obama.
If Obama had a failed foreign policy, it would look a lot like this.
Same failed policies as with oil. "Bush only went to Iraq for oil for his buddies.' How much oil are his 'buddies' getting? Russia, China can drill of our coasts but we can't Oil for sale all over the world and Russia and China are buying it all. Meanwhile, obama and his minions deny us the right while throwing OUR MONEY into failed green energy companies- who in turn, give it back to him for re-election. Sounds illegal to me, but who's going to stop him? our crooked atty general?
Gee, I think Beck predicted this. So much for an rab Spring, sure hope it doesn't come here
Ah, remember back when the main stream media and the Obama administration was feeling the joy over the Arab Spring? They were all teary eyed over the spread of freedom and democracy. At the same time Laura Logan was being molested by gangs of freedom loving Egyptian men? Almost beyond all sense of logic and reason, They were both telling us that Al Jazeera was now a main stream news network and the Muslim Brotherhood were..... moderates? Fundamentalist are not moderates. Which means, there are no moderate Brothers (are there any "Sisters" in the Brotherhood) or moderate Taliban either. It's hard to tell who the enemies of America are.
Way to pick winners, Obama. You have such a startling ability to be on the very wrong side of every single decision.
Eygpt is Doing Fine
Obama's foreign policy initatives in the Middle East are working out as expected. It appears that Obama's handles foreign policy as well as he handles the US economy.
Obama did a great job masterminding this one. He got rid of Mubarak, who was a U.S. ally, and set it up for the Islamists to take over in a "democratic" election. Instead, Egypt now has a new military dictatorship. Looks more like the return of Nassar than a democracy. Pathetic!!
Egyptian military timed this with the understanding that the US would not intervene seriously ahead of a US election.
Alabama Black Snake
If the Christian Brotherhood (tea baggers) take over the US, all hope is lost.
:whatever:

I can't believe "Alabama Black Snake" could even remotely make a moral equivalency between Republicans and the Muslim Brotherhood.
Liberalism IS a mental disorder.

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. --Does a fork or dinner knife pose an unacceptable danger to President Barack Obama?
One wouldn’t think so, given the hundreds of lunches and dinners he’s attended ranging from state dinners to political fundraisers to run-of-the-mill stops on the rubber-chicken circuit.
However, at one such lunch Friday afternoon, guests heard an unusual announcement that they needed to hand over their silverware for security reasons.
“It’s very important that you use your utensils as soon as possible,†National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials board member Raquel Regalado told about 1000 delegates at the group’s annual conference.....
