White Kids Die In Silence

Headline too harsh? It IS Reality.

Hey folks,

This is what I'm talking about is my issue, well, MAIN issue, with the Trayvon Martin Case. One guy, regardless of the Circumstance, is Shot to death, INSANITY engulfs the Country. Two White kids Murdered right here in Florida? No one takes notice? Where's Obama? The Guy that killed them is Black. They are White. Is this not a HATE Crime? Were is Jesse and Al? Well, we know where they are. But where WERE they when this happened.

Thankfully the guy that Murdered them is in Jail for Life. But why are their Faces NOT on the Cover of People? Where is their MERE mention by Obama? Well, the Parents of these two would like an official answer. Don't hold your breath. They answered their own question. According to The UK Telegraph - Parents of murdered British students criticise Barack Obama By Paul Thompson in Sarasota 3:00PM BST 29 Mar 2012

The parents of two British students murdered in Florida have criticised President Barack Obama for his lack of compassion over their sons' deaths.

His failure to respond to three letters sent to the White House was because there was no "political value" and not worthy of a few minutes of his time.

They spoke out as teenager Shawn Tyson began a life sentence after being found guilty of the murder of James Cooper and James Kouzaris last April.

The 17 year old, who shot the men as they begged for their lives, will die in prison.

Or be pardoned and set free by some Liberal that convinces someone that he does not deserve it. That the only reason he was arrest was because he's Black. Or some sort of nonsense.

His conviction of first degree murder carries an mandatory life sentence without the chance of parole.

The powerfully built teen even looked bored as emotional DVD presentations about the dead men prepared by their grieving parents were shown in court.

Tyson, who has the word 'Savage' tattooed across his chest didn't show a flicker of emotion, slumping in his seat as he was forced to watch a montage of photos showing the victims from early childhood to young men.

Two close friends of the dead men who had attended the eight day trial in Sarasota, Florida. had also delivered highly emotional impact statements to the court prior to the sentencing.

Paul Davies and Joe Hallett spoke of the "living hell" they and others who knew the men had suffered since the murders.

During the eight day trial they had been shown graphic crime scene and autopsy photos shown in court.

Later speaking after Tyson was jailed Davies and Hallett lashed out at Mr Obama saying the deaths of their friends was "not worthy of ten minutes of his time."

Davies said:"We would like to publicly express our dissatisfaction at the lack of any public or private message of support or condolence from any American governing body or indeed, President Obama himself.

"Mr Kouzaris has written to President Obama on three separate occasions and is yet to even receive the courtesy of a reply.

"It would perhaps appear that Mr Obama sees no political value in facilitating such a request or that the lives of two British tourists are not worthy of ten minutes of his time."

There you go. That's the answer right there. " Mr Obama sees no political value in facilitating such a request or that the lives of two British tourists are not worthy of ten minutes of his time." Yup. Be it them, James Cooper and James Kouzaris, The "White Girl" that Congresswoman Corrine Brown (D-Fla.)can't remember, even though there were "Protests" for her, or a Sweet Innocent Jewish Girl {Miriam Monstango} who was hunted and Murdered, just because she is Jewish? Where are the Hoodies? Or whatever the two British Students were wearing that day? Where are the calls to ESCALATE Protests?

Now I know. You are thinking, yeah, but the Murderer of Miriam Monstango is dead, and the Murderer of James Cooper and James Kouzaris, is Jailed for Life. Zimmerman is still out. What about the White Person that just died Last nigh? My point is that murders take place every day in this Country. Black on Black, White on White. White on Black, Black on White, As in the Trayvon Case, Hispanic on Black. Males on Females, ETC. You NEVER hear anything about it. This Case is so disturbing to me, not because it happened, but because of what WILL happen because of a few seeking to Profit from it. How do you feel this helps Race Relations in this Country? Trayvon on the cover of People, and White kids die in silence? Just saying.

Media Matters Not A Unbiased Media Watchdog?

"Wow, I never knew. I thought they were an unbiased media watchdog group."

Hey folks,

I really have nothing to add to this. At all. With one exception. This is no surprise. But it's good to see others reporting the FACTS about this Liberal Attack Dog Group. You WERE being Sarcastic, Right? Here it is. It's a little long but well worth the read. It's from The Daily Caller - Media Matters wants a fight, but can’t take a punch By Vince Coglianese - The Daily Caller Senior Online Editor

After facing down more than a month of tough reporting, David Brock’s Media Matters for America still has nothing to say for itself. The progressive messaging group has all but clammed up about its internal turmoil under a constant barrage of scrutiny from conservatives and liberals alike.

It’s been a little over a month since The Daily Caller published the beginning of an investigative series examining the inner workings of Media Matters. The reporting, bolstered by first-hand knowledge from sources familiar with day-to-day activities in the group’s Washington, D.C. offices, revealed close coordination with the Obama White House, a slew of favored — and receptive — mainstream journalists, intense erratic behavior by Brock, a Glock pistol illegally carried by Brock’s assistant and consequence-free sex in the office’s media war room.

TheDC also revealed an extensive list of left-wing foundations that bankroll the group’s operations. Those findings showed the organization’s use of Bernie Madoff-exposed assets, the receipt of a donation specifically earmarked for targeting religious media, and a laundry list of big-name progressive foundations, including the Tides Foundation, George Soros’ Open Society Foundations and MoveOn.org, among many others.

In that same time frame, Fox News reported that Brock had to sell his Rehoboth Beach, Del. home to pay his former domestic partner $850,000 in what Brock called “blackmail” to keep him silent about details purportedly devastating to Media Matters.

Additionally, Media Matters’ foreign policy department has risen to become the group’s greatest public liability, with senior fellow MJ Rosenberg under fire across the political spectrum — and in the pages of The New York Times — for being “virulently anti-Israel,” according to liberal Harvard Law School professor Alan Dershowitz.

A report published Monday by TheDC showed that Media Matters’ foreign policy associations include a tangled relationship with Al-Jazeera, a Qatar government-operated television network with an anti-Israel — and arguably anti-American — editorial posture.

Amid all this fallout are serious questions about Media Matters’ ability to maintain its tax-exempt charitable status with the IRS, with the White House and senior Democrats aligning themselves closely with the organization.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has even promised his voice — regardless of the consequences of political ties for Media Matters’ favored tax status — in helping to promote the organization’s latest anti-Fox News book, “The Fox Effect.”

That tax status, TheDC learned, began to face scrutiny from Republican members of Congress in mid-February.

Through all this, Media Matters has been extraordinarily quiet, publicly answering only a single question regarding a 2009 Media Matters internal memo suggesting the group hire private investigators “to look into the personal lives” of Fox News employees.

“I could not care if a Fox News person was cheating on their wife. That doesn’t matter,” Media Matters’ Executive Vice President Ari Rabin-Havt replied to TheDC during a book event. “We don’t dig into people’s personal lives, no.”

Beyond that claim, Rabin-Havt dismissed a Daily Caller reporter as a “troll.”

“I generally make a policy not to respond to trolls, basically,” he said. “I’m not going to respond to an article that’s basically filled up with just crap. There’s no point getting into a match back and forth with The Daily Caller, and that’s why we chose not to respond.”

Neither Brock nor his group’s spokeswoman, Jess Levin, has returned a single request for comment from TheDC.

Additionally, Brock has avoided nearly all national media outlets while promoting his book, “The Fox Effect,” giving him ample cover from facing tough questions.

The lone exception came late Tuesday night in the form of an op-ed appearing prominently on the home page of the news website Politico.

In an opinion column, Brock went back on the offensive against conservative radio talker Rush Limbaugh, complaining about his treatment of a Georgetown Law School student and contraception activist on Feb. 29. Limbaugh referred to Sandra Fluke as a “slut” on his show that day, and later apologized for his choice of words.

Brock’s Politico op-ed came 20 days later — and long after countless other liberal commentators had tired of attacking Limbaugh and his advertisers — in what amounted to a safe toe in the water that gave Media Matters a higher profile without addressing the widespread charges against it.

Brock was at least once offered, and refused, an invitation to appear on CNN’s “Reliable Sources” on Feb. 19. “We asked Media Matters to make someone available,” host Howard Kurtz told viewers on that day’s broadcast. “David Brock is not able to come on — the founder of the group — because he’s got a book coming out next week,” he explained.

During that program, when challenged on why Media Matters hadn’t yet responded to the reports published by TheDC, Kurtz responded, “Well, we’re going to give them that opportunity, perhaps next week.”

That opportunity never came, and it was not for a lack of trying.

A producer for “Reliable Sources” accidentally reached out to TheDC to confirm Brock’s appearance on the Feb. 26 broadcast. But that invitation was later retracted, according to Kurtz.

“In the end we wound up not inviting him because we had too much other news to deal with,” Kurtz told TheDC via email.

As to why Brock hasn’t even appeared on the liberal MSNBC to promote the book, the network did not return TheDC’s request for comment.

MSNBC may have some incentive for maintaining distance from Brock. A source within his organization originally told TheDC that Media Matters took credit for “pretty much writing their [MSNBC's] prime time.” The network’s president, Phil Griffin, made himself readily available to phone calls by Media Matters staff.

Politico, among the few national outlets to speak with Brock for his book tour, published a playful interview with him on March 13. The questions, ranging from “tell us your favorite joke” to “how often do you Google yourself?” are the same asked of every guest in the publication’s “Answer This” series.

Reporter Patrick Gavin told TheDC that he offered Brock the interview on Feb. 7, “before the Daily Caller thing ran [on Feb. 12].” Gavin said Brock’s answers were emailed back to him on Feb. 22, ten days into TheDC’s investigative series on the group.

Brock was also on MSNBC host Ed Schultz’s Feb. 21 radio show, where he took a cursory question regarding TheDC’s reporting.

“We haven’t responded,” Brock said. “Reuters [columnist Jack Shafer] said that The Daily Caller piece was ‘bad journalism and lame propaganda,’ and we don’t feel like we need to respond to that.”

It’s a drastically different PR strategy for an organization whose founder once published an open letter challenging Fox News host Bill O’Reilly to an on-air debate in an effort to defend Media Matters and George Soros, the liberal financier who would eventually become a major contributor to the group.

According to the Dec. 16, 2004 letter, O’Reilly had previously dismissed Media Matters as a “far left, deceitful, disgusting website” composed of “‘character assassins’ and ‘despicable weasels.’”

“You once offered your viewers your definition of the word ‘coward,’” Brock responded in the letter. “On the January 5, 2004, O’Reilly Factor, you declared: ‘If you attack someone publicly, as these men did to me, you have an obligation to face the person you are smearing. If you don’t you are a coward,’” he recalled.

“Well, Mr. O’Reilly,” Brock continued, “you have attacked me publicly on numerous occasions, and you refuse to face me. You, sir, are a coward — by your own definition of the term.”

“Should you continue to refuse this offer,” Brock concluded, “it is only reasonable that the American people will conclude that you are not only — as you would put it — a ‘coward,’ but a hypocrite as well.”

Beginning in February, Fox News has devoted extensive coverage to the challenges facing Media Matters, but none of those reports have elicited a response from the oft-pugnacious media monitoring group. Even the “Fox Attacks Media Matters” video round-up — featured prominently on the MediaMatters.org homepage — has gone dark, with the last clip dated February 8, 2012. The organization’s coverage now excludes dozens of once-meticulously documented mentions of Media Matters on Fox News programs.

Additionally, Media Matters has not published a single entry on its website challenging the many news stories released over the last month about its own operations.

Media Matters did not return a request for comment for this story.

They are nothing more than Bullies. You know what happens when you stand up to a Bully? They run and hide. They are typical Libs. They Lie, cheat, and steal. They have no ability to actually engage in an Intellectual Debate on their Positions. They simply attack. They follow scripts. They follow orders. They can not stand up to scrutiny. They can not deal with the TRUTH. I love it. Their little Bubble is bursting, and they have no idea what to do.

Have a great Weekend folks. See you Sunday.

Santorum, Religion, The Devil, and America

If you go to Church, or a Religious School, you may hear about Religion.

Hey folks,

If you walk into a Church and you hear THIS,,,

"The Father of Lies has his sights on what you would think the Father of Lies, Satan, would have his sights on: a good, decent, powerful, influential country -- the United States of America. If you were Satan, who would you attack in this day and age? There is no one else to go after other than the United States, and that's been the case for now almost 200 years, once America's preeminence was sown by our great Founding Fathers.

The next was the church. Now, you say, "Well, wait. The Catholic Church?" No. We all know that this country was founded on a Judeo-Christian ethic, but the Judeo-Christian ethic was a Protestant Judeo-Christian ethic. Sure, the Catholics had some influence, but this was a Protestant country, and the Protestant ethic. Mainstream, mainline Protestantism. And of course we look at the shape of mainline Protestantism in this country, and it is a shambles."

changes are, you would not be surprised. Correct? If you go into some other Churches, you may hear things like this

"It's not God Bless America, it's God Damn America. It's in the Bible."

Remember that? You hear people talking about God, the Devil, and everything Faith when you go to Church. That's why you go. If you go to a Religious School, they TEACH Faith, God, the Devil, ETC. That's why you go. I do not understand what is so heard to understand. If you go to Church, or a Religious School, you may hear about Religion. Imagine that. If you are asked to be a Guest Speaker there, YOU may talk about things that only those that UNDERSTAND Religion, can understand. That's why you are there.

So back in 2008, while NOT running for President, Rick Santorum, visited Ave Maria University. A RELIGIOUS School. He said "The Devil is attacking America, and the Mainline Protestants are basically more concerned with agendas than they are dealing with matters of Faith." More on this in a second.

So of course, the Mainstream Media is all over this. Ignorant Liberals and those that listen to the Media, are calling him names, and saying he is not fit for President. Just because he DARED mention the Devil. In a Religious School and 4 years ago when he was not even running for President. I even had to turn off a New Radio Host yesterday. I will not be listening anymore. He started his Show complaining about not getting calls, and then he went into this rant about how Santorum is a nut, and he needs to keep this talk in his "Crazy Land" {Meaning Church, meaning anyone that believes in God, the Devil, or the Bible is Crazy} And he kept going. Nut, Crazy, Kook, ETC. Sorry, you should have stuck to being non-political, and NOT attack anyone of Faith for their Views. I actually found myself getting offended. THAT is very hard to do. He did it. Therefore I will no longer be listening.

But the Media gave Obama a pass with all the "Crazy Stuff" that his Rev. said over Twenty years. But Santorum? Not fit for President? Our friends over at Red State, have a GREAT Piece today talking about this. It's at RS - A Primer for the Media and I Agree With Rick Santorum Posted by Erick Erickson (Diary)Tuesday, February 21st at 11:01PM EST

The Drudge Report put up a story about Rick Santorum’s speech to Ave Maria University in which Santorum said Satan was attacking the United States. The speech was giving in 2008, but is largely consistent with statements he has given in the past few weeks.

I agree with Rick Santorum. I also think that this is a Romney leaked piece. Given the close ties between Matt Drudge and the Romney camp, that’s an easy guess. I also think it will hurt Santorum who apparently has Gingrichitis, a disease the frontrunners all seem to get where they mouth off on any topic under the sun once they are the front runner.

Focus on this topic does not help Santorum and is largely irrelevant to being President. Nonetheless, I feel compelled to defend Santorum given how clueless some of those attacking him seem to be on the specific points he made and also given the cluelessness of a lot of reporters trying to put his remarks in context or explain them.

In 2008, Rick Santorum wasn’t running for President. His statement is well within the mainstream of orthodox Christian theology. And that’s the point here for a lot of reporters who seem stunned by Santorum’s statements.

I’m not Catholic and disagree with some of the teachings of that church, but both orthodox Protestant and Catholic views are consistent with the idea of Satan (who is very real) at war and trying to both tempt and corrupt people.

The humorous thing is there are many on the left who are trying to claim Santorum’s view is nutty, wacked out, or bizarre. There’s actually a stronger case for saying Satan is trying to corrupt the United States than that Barack Obama is a Marxist. Pick your poison.

But one of the statements Rick Santorum made that the media has terribly portrayed and clearly does not understand is Santorum saying, “We look at the shape of mainline Protestantism in this country and it is in shambles, it is gone from the world of Christianity as I see it.”

He is absolutely correct in this statement. When mainline Protestant denominations are in the news these days, it is more likely to be over their debates on the ordination of gays than on anything they have done to actually advance Christ’s kingdom. The problem is that a lot of reporters and even a lot of conservatives do not understand what “mainline Protestants” are.

It is not hard.

A mainline protestant is not a “mainstream” protestant. The two are not interchangeable. The former is more of an academic term.

The base way to understand what a mainline protestant is would be to understand that the term largely means those protestant denominations that existed during the colonial era of the American colonies and as they have evolved from that point.

Many suggest the term comes from the Pennsylvania Main Line railroad that ran through Philadelphia neighborhoods at the turn of the twentieth century, which were organized around communities of interest making up those original colonial faithes.

Specifically, Mainline Protestant denominations are Episcopalians, the United Methodists, the Presbyterians (USA), the American and Northern Baptists, the United Church of Christ, the Congregationalists, the Disciples of Christ, and the Lutherans.

While evangelical churches are more mainstream in America, they are not considered main line. Many evangelical churches branched off from the main line. The Southern Baptists, the nation’s largest protestant denomination, branched off from the Northern and American Baptist Churches. The Presbyterian Church in America, Evangelical Presbyterians, and Reformed Presbyterians broke away from the main Presbyterian Church, which is today the PCUSA. Anglicans have come back into the country in response to the ordination of gays within the Episcopalian Church.

I await the United Methodist Church splintering over that issue and the social gospel too. The Methodists are one of the last major mainline denominations not to have a serious split. But it is on the verge of happening.

There is a long history here and I am no religion scholar, but there are a couple of points to understand.

The mainline churches are more concerned these days with the social gospel, the role of gays in the church, etc. These churches are in decline. Their numbers are falling as they have replaced the actual Gospel with a modern sense of spiritualism that ultimately does not feed the flock.

Evangelical churches over all are growing. The charismatic churches are really seeing strong growth. These churches are much more concerned with fundamentalism, which is, like “mainline”, a specific term. Fundamentalist churches believe in the fundamentals of the faith, which were toward the turn of the twentieth century narrowed to five points including the inerrancy of the Bible, the death and resurrection of Christ, and the need for salvation. When people talk about “fundamentalists” these days, they usually mean hard line Christians who are no fun. Actually, a “fundamentalist” is someone who subscribes to five specific points within Protestantism: (1) the inerrancy of the Bible; (2) the virgin birth of Christ; (3) the atonement of sins through Christ’s death; (4) the bodily resurrection of Christ; and (5) the reality of Christ’s miracles.

So, when Santorum says mainline Protestantism in this country is in shambles, he is referring to specific churches, not all Protestants and specifically not evangelicals. He is referring specifically to those specific denominations more interested these days in the social gospel and the ordination of gay ministers than in salvation through grace. And both the decline of those churches’ populations and their ceding the field on actual matters of the Gospel are proof that Santorum is right. These churches have less and less to do with orthodox Christianity and it is no surprise that it is from the ranks of these churches that the media typically draws on ministers to rebut long held orthodox Christian views and the mainstream churches of America, which are more and more evangelical.

I don't think this will hurt him at all. The Media will of course jump all over it, but People of FAITH will understand EXACTLY what he means. They may even agree with him. There is only one thing in this whole thing that could be harmful to Rick Santorum. That is if he backs down. If he backpedals, or denounces what he said in any way. Rick, just say "I said it. I mean it. Look where I said it." Leave it alone. Do not show us that you can be Bullied by the Media and the Liberals. Stand strong Rick, stand strong.

Media Still Not Getting It?

I start having problems, the first thing I do is look into ME.

Hey folks,

This is just too funny. They really still do not get it. Then again, some of you most likely do not get why some are still there to begin with. According to Your News.com - American's to corporate media: We don’t trust you

A Gallup poll has revealed that a record majority of Americans fundamentally do not trust the mass media and believe it to be politically biased.

By Steve Watson

NEW YORK (NY) - When asked how much confidence they have in newspapers, TV and Radio to accurately report events, 57% of Americans surveyed said that they generally have “not very much or none at all”.

The figure marks a one percent rise on 2008’s record high of 56%, while the general trend shows an increase in mistrust in the media of around 13% over the past decade.

Just 43% of Americans said they now have “a great deal or fair amount” of trust in the mainstream media, a record low, and a plummeting drop from a height of 72% in the mid 1970s.

You know why right? The New Media. Back in the 70's, 80's, and into early 90,s The Media had no competition. They also attempted to at least mask their Liberal Insane agenda and their Bias. People trusted anything they saw on the Local 5pm News.

However, since the launch of the New Media, Talk Radio, the Blogs, the Internet, Cable News, ETC. they have been losing readers, viewership, ETC. Why? Because the Mainstream Media can no longer get away with MAKING the News. They get caught now in reporting misleading, or fraudulent Stories. They get caught every time they try. They have given up even trying anymore to hide their Bias. Now people get the truth. They get FACTS. They make up their own minds.

A total of 63% of Americans said that they perceive a political bias in the mainstream media, with 48% believing it to be too liberal and 15% too conservative.

Interestingly, the survey finds that those identifying themselves with Democrats and liberals are happier with their daily feed of corporate news, with 59% and 54% respectively saying they currently have a great deal or fair amount of trust in the mass media.

The results reflect the rise of the alternative media and Internet news sources, which are rapidly gaining popularity amongst Americans, who are turning away from traditional media sources.

In another recent Gallup poll, just 25% of people of all ages stated that they had trust in newspapers and television news.

So why are some of them still there? Why does it seem that they do not care that their Bias is on full display? They are OWNED by Corporations, and Liberals, that FUND them. They simple report whatever they are told to.

Yes folks, they do not rely on their Readership, Viewers, or the common folks. They are well funded by those that are still hoping that the majority of Americans still trust them over the New Media. That is not the reality of the situation as these numbers show. But they will continue because they are PAID by and Funded by Liberals. The truth is, Private Non-Profit Organizations Funding The NewsSome even want the Government to bail out some of them.

So I think they actually DO get it, they just do not care. They will continue to report, or not, whatever they are told, as long as the funding continues.

IWA For Sunday 100310

Did he REALLY think that he would not have consequences for this.

Hey folks,

How many of you out there have the privilege to go on National Radio and talk trash about YOUR BOSS? Not kidding here. How many of you, who even thought it were possible that your Boss may hear what you say, would talk trash about them? Well, that is what our Idiot did. Yeah I know, there is more to it then this, but still?

Look, it is obvious that this guy is a Racist and an Anti-Semite. So Jon Stewart pokes fun at our Idiot who claimed that he receive a "Tweet" from from House Republican leader John Boehner. Stewart called it a case of "send a twit a tweet."

Think about that. A Liberal Comedian poking fun at anyone in Public Life? THAT IS WHAT HE DOES. That's his job. But I guess it didn't sit well with our Idiot. First he shows us that he is either a Racist himself, or, being an Anchor on CNN, one of the most Liberal Stations out there, the Clinton News Network, he has actually bought into the whole Liberal BS stereotype.

"He's upset that someone of my ilk is almost at his level," Sanchez said during a satellite radio interview with Pete Dominick. Details of the interview were posted on the Mediaite website Friday and quickly became a topic of conversation in the media world.

Sanchez said that Stewart is bigoted toward "everybody else that's not like him." He said Stewart "can't relate to what I grew up with," saying his family had been poor and he had seen prejudice directed at his father.

Sounds an awful lot like Obama doesn't it?

Obama "doesn't look like all those other Presidents on the dollar bills."

Or that the "Bitter Clingers"

"cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them."

This is simply an easy out. When they can't win an intellectual debate, or don't want to explain they points, they simply play the Race Card. But then, regardless of what the official CNN line is, THIS is what got him fired.

Sanchez dismisses it when Dominick points out that Stewart, who is Jewish, is also a minority.

"I'm telling you that everyone who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority?" Sanchez said, adding a sarcastic "yeah."

"I can't see someone not getting a job these days because they're Jewish," he said.

{Laughing}"I'm telling you that everyone who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart," {Racist, Jews, who run the world.} So not only did our Winner this week call Jon Stewart a Bigot, he called his Bosses Bigots as well.

Congratulations Rick Sanchez, you ARE the Idiot of the Week. Can I offer you a suggestion? IF you get hired again, perhaps you should keep in the back of your mind, "Don't insult the Boss. Don't insult the Boss." {Smile} Just a suggestion.

Paladino Being A Dad

Any respectable Dad would feel the same.

Hey folks,

"What do you think of this? I don't blame him. But do you think he crossed the line?"

NO! Who I think crossed the line was the Reporter who was at his Ten Year Old Daughter's Bedroom Window. THAT is who I think crossed the line. I would feel the same way. Any respectable Dad would feel the same.



Look, Paladino came right out and told everyone, that He was Married with three kids at the time of his Daughter's birth. A product of an affair with her Mother TEN YEARS ago. He also allowed and set up his Wife, Cathy, for a string of Interviews in the past week in which she was asked about the young Girl. We already know what there is to know. There is no reason that the Media should be at his Daughter's house.

Remember Obama?

"I think peoples families are off limits and people's children are especially off limits."

So Paladino was open and honest about his affair, yet the Media STILL wants to harass this LITTLE GIRL and her Mother? No wonder he grew visibly angry and said stop it.

"My daughter is off limits.”

But we know that this is PURELY Political. Andrew Cuomo is ACTUALLY in trouble in NY. That was not suppose to happen. So just like when an army of Reporters descended on a Small Town in Alaska to dig up any kind of dirt they could on Palin, yet ignored ANY AND EVERYTHING about Obama, they are doing what the Liberals do. They attack that of which they fear. They couldn't really find anything on Palin, so they went with the mantra that she is an Idiot and doesn't know anything. That is what they are doing in NY. He already shared the Affair. Yet they are still harassing this little Girl and her family, yet ignoring Cuomo all together.

I got news for ya. I'm a proud Papa. I have a Son, one on the way, and I helped raise my Niece and an "Adopted" Daughter. If I ever caught ANYONE standing at my kid's Bedroom Window? No warning would be issued. I can assure you of that. Especially AFTER I have already been open and honest about them. No my friends, if you want to come after me for something, PLEASE feel free. If I put myself in a position that open me up to public scrutiny, I need to expect that. But go after my family? Yeah, we WILL have a problem.

I applaud Paladino. I'm glad he shows some Cojones. I'm tired of wishy washy Republicans that just lay down and take it. Don't think he can win in NY? I got two words for ya. Chris Christie.

State Run MMD Ignores Illegal Obama Bribery

"Didn't seem to stop us. Did it?"

Hey folks,

Happy Friday to you. Nope. It didn't stop us. The Tea Party and REAL Conservatives won BIG on Tuesday. The Media has all but ignored THAT as well. Yet some in the State Run MMD {Mainstream Media Drones} still wonder out loud, "What is going on?"

Conservatism is on the assent. But they do not want to talk about that. They do not tell us Obama is a FAILURE, as all the facts point out. They do not tell us when Obama is WRONG on ANYTHING. They lie, and completely make stuff up all the time. When caught, they blame others, or correct it, then move on quicker than prunes going through your body.

They ARE Obama. Obama and his Regime CONTROL the Mainstream Media. They tell them what to report, or what NOT to, and they dutifully comply. Like THIS example from the Media Research Center.

Now the text of the June 10 Media Reality Check:

Team Obama's Grubby Federal Job-Dangling Is Not News
MRC Study: Networks Contain Sestak Scandal to Nine Stories or Mentions on Memorial Day Weekend

On February 18, Rep. Joe Sestak, a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate from Pennsylvania, revealed in a Philadelphia TV interview that the Obama White House offered him a job in an effort to talk him out of opposing Sen. Arlen Specter, who’d recently switched parties. Network interviewers asked the White House for comment, but the network news bosses at ABC, CBS, and NBC kept any mention of this possible quid pro quo off the airwaves of their morning and evening news programs for more than three months.

Then ten days after Sestak defeated Specter, the White House issued a brief statement on the Friday afternoon heading into the Memorial Day weekend, claiming they asked former President Bill Clinton to offer Sestak an unpaid position on a presidential advisory board. That drew perfunctory reports on Friday night and some brief mentions over the holiday weekend.

During the following week, the White House narrative fell apart, since Sestak could not serve on these advisory boards as a member of Congress. Press Secretary Robert Gibbs obfuscated and dodged reporters when peppered with questions, which led to some newspaper and cable coverage, but ABC, CBS and NBC all blacked out the story as it crumbled.

Then Andrew Romanoff, a Democratic Senate candidate in Colorado, emerged with a similar story, complete with a White House e-mail he received that touted several positions in foreign aid programs he could have. This spurred two network morning show stories, but the networks weren’t acknowledging any kind of scandal was occurring. There’s now been 12 days of network silence on Team Obama’s Sestak maneuvering.

Media Research Center analysts monitored all network morning and evening news coverage in 2010 on Sestak’s Senate campaign:

## The Sestak job-offer scandal drew only nine stories or mentions on the three networks. NBC offered only one evening anchor brief. CBS featured an evening anchor brief, a morning anchor brief, and a Saturday night interview where analyst John Dickerson dismissed the scandal. ABC did the most with five offerings: three stories or discussions on World News, and two on Good Morning America. All of these nine segments were contained within the Memorial Day weekend. ##

It sounded odd for ABC’s Jonathan Karl to announce on May 28 that “after months of dodging questions,” Team Obama offered an answer. How would anyone watching just network news have any idea the story wasn’t brand new?

The networks even failed to note developments on their own Sunday interview programs. On May 23, Sestak dodged questions on CBS’s Face the Nation and NBC’s Meet the Press, while ABC’s This Week ran a soundbite of the February interview with Sestak in Philadelphia. But none of the networks aired a second of the Sestak story until the following Friday night.

Only ABC reported a full story that Friday evening. On CBS, anchor Katie Couric offered only a 30-second brushoff. Couric’s sense of its news value was summed up seconds later when she followed that with a light story about frogs: “Thousands of them have been disrupting traffic along a busy highway in northern Greece for days now. And why did the frogs cross the road? To get to the food on the other side.”

NBC anchor Brian Williams offered a 73-second anchor brief with a no-news-here tone: “The story got out back in February, and the White House, as the President pledged yesterday, set the record straight today.” Williams signaled his lack of interest by putting that story after a two-minute obituary for ‘80s child star Gary Coleman. That was the only time NBC’s morning and evening newscasts have touched the story, even as MSNBC star Chris Matthews declared the whole Clinton-offer story "a big case of bluffing and BS."

ABC offered the most follow-up, offering a story on Saturday’s Good Morning America and a question to Jake Tapper on Sunday’s morning show. They also threw Tapper a Sestak question on Saturday’s World News, and a Sestak question to ABC political analyst Rick Klein on Sunday night’s newscast.

CBS added a few touches over the Memorial Day weekend as well. CBS threw in an anchor brief on Saturday’s Early Show and a couple of questions on Saturday’s Evening News to political analyst John Dickerson, who insisted Democrats saw nothing wrong and Republicans “don’t own the leverage of power to actually force an investigation, so it might just die there.” Especially if the networks want it to die there.

The only time CBS offered a full report came on The Early Show on June 3, when White House correspondent Chip Reid reported on the Andrew Romanoff case. ABC mentioned Romanoff briefly on its morning show, but NBC never did. None of the three evening news shows have touched the Romanoff story at all.

The networks cannot plausibly claim that this job-dangling is not a news story because it’s a commonly sleazy practice – not after years of claiming the choice of Obama was so idealistic and inspiring. Their inaction not only ignores Obama’s yellowed promises to be transparent and accountable, but also Joe Sestak’s new pledge on the night he defeated Specter that “accountability has been missing for far too long, and I want to help bring it back.”

LINK : MRC - Team Obama's Grubby Federal Job-Dangling Is Not News

Is this news? Of course it is. Did what Obama and Crew do constitute an ILLEGAL BRIBE attempt? Of course it DOES. Is it news to those in charge of propping you up and covering for your mistakes? Of course it ain't. It can't be. That would be like the PR department in your Company coming out saying "Yeah we suck." It just doesn't happen.

Journalism is dead my friends. It died a while ago. But it really doesn't matter. You all know this. If they do not want to tell you about Sestak or Romanoff, I WILL. If I don't, Fox News will. Rush will. Other Bloggers will. Thanks to the New Media, Blogs, cable news, Talk Radio, the MMD can not longer hind anything. Even if they ignore something, we all miss it, " Joe Schmoe, and his Blog from nowhere" breaks something that gets Rush, Fox, Drudge, and others attention. Then, after it's out there, growing legs and running, the MMD is FORCED to talk about it. Gone are the days of them controlling the news.

So even something like this? A CLEAR case of them attempting to ignore REAL news, doesn't really matter in the long run. In the long run, the truth get's out there. People learn what is really going on and they hold the NYT, ABC, CBS, NBC, and the like, accountable for NOT reporting it. Why do you think Readership and Viewership is at record lows? Conservatism is on the assent, because people are becoming EDUCATED. They couldn't stop this if they tried. And make no mistake about it. They ARE trying.

Obama's State of the Union Speech Analysis

Answering a question.

Hey folks,

OK. OK. OK. I will answer the question.

"What's up? Where is your 'expert analysis' of the state of the union speech? You are always quick to tell us what to think, so what gives? Shall we take it that you agree with everything President Obama said? I doubt that. But you said nothing. You did respond to 'Peter' but why did you not just attack the President like you do so often. Inquiring minds want to know."

{Sigh} Do I really have to? There are countless fact checks out there. Even the Mainstream Media did a pretty good job at it. It was all complete and total BUNK! The entire speech was filled with inconsistencies, untruths, exaggerations, and complete and outright lies. Even the All Barack Channel, ABC, did a Fact Check. They found the same things.

Just some? According to Fact Check.org,

■He said "we import more oil today than ever before." That’s untrue. Imports peaked in 2005 and are substantially lower today.
■He claimed his mortgage aid plan would help "responsible" buyers but not those who borrowed beyond their means. But even prominent defenders of the program including Fed Chairman Bernanke and FDIC chief Bair concede foolish borrowers will be aided, too.
■He said the high cost of health care "causes a bankruptcy in America every 30 seconds." That’s at least double the true figure.
■He flubbed two facts about American history. The U.S. did not invent the automobile, and the transcontinental railroad was not completed until years after the Civil War, not during it.
■He claimed that his stimulus plan "prevented the layoffs" of 57 police officers in Minneapolis. In fact, it’s far more complicated than that, and other factors are also helping to save police jobs.

Others pointed out that there is NO WAY of checking his numbers of saved jobs. Or even created.

ABC reported this.

But the figures that the president was citing for workers and teachers are from a different assessment. Those numbers are determined based on responses from recipients of the stimulus money, and those haven't always been accurate. For example, last November, Recovery.gov claimed that in Arizona's 15th congressional district, 30 jobs had been saved or created with just $761,420 in federal stimulus spending. The one problem that was spotted later: There is no 15th congressional district in Arizona.

Another thing he was talking about was how his Administration would not allow Lobbyists to be part of Policy Making. However, he signed an Executive Order.

The order allows for waivers, however, and several have been granted. For instance, Jocelyn Frye, who used to lobby on employment and gender discrimination, became director of policy and projects for Michelle Obama; Cecilia Muñoz, who formerly lobbied for the National Council of La Raza, was appointed White House director of intergovernmental affairs; and former Raytheon lobbyist William Lynn became deputy secretary of defense.

Obama might have been trying to leave himself some wiggle room when he specified "policymaking jobs." But Lynn’s job sounds to us like it involves policymaking. And it’s hard to claim that Ron Kirk, the United States trade representative, doesn’t have a policymaking role. Kirk didn’t need a waiver because he was a lobbyist — for Merrill Lynch and others — in Texas, not Washington, but Obama made no such distinction in his statement Wednesday night.

My analysis? Obama being Obama. Lies, and deceit. Sorry, the Speech Wednesday was all about the State of Obama. NOT the State of the Union. It was all about furthering his and the Loons INSANE Agenda to remake this country into the new USSA. That's all this was about. He attempting to appeal to everyone. Do you really believe this?

"I'm also proposing a new small-business tax credit, one that will go to over 1 million small businesses who hire new workers or raise wages."

Three thousand vs $40 thousand or so to hire?

"While we're at it, let's also eliminate all capital gains taxes on small-business investment and provide a tax incentive for all large businesses and all small businesses to invest in new plants and equipment."

I have a Bridge to sell you.

"Next, we can put Americans to work today building the infrastructure of tomorrow."

Where are all those Shovel Ready Jobs? What happened to all of them? What about THIS?

"It means making tough decisions about opening new offshore areas for oil and gas development."

Really?

"It means continued investment in advanced biofuels and clean-coal technologies."

DRILLING? CLEAN COAL? I have some Swamp land to go with the Bridge. But NONE of this will matter a bit with this.

"And, yes, it means passing a comprehensive energy and climate bill with incentives that will finally make clean energy the profitable kind of energy in America."

Do you really believe he wants to DOUBLE the child tax credit? Like I said, the whole speech was nothing more than BUNK. An attempt to rescue Obama from plummeting Poll Numbers, and an attempt to make the Political Landscape, a little more friendly for the Left, going into this mid term Election year.

Mainstream Media, Obama Drunk, Misses REAL News

From The Emails 010110

I love this.

Hey folks,

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU! Yes, it IS New Year's Day!! The first day of 2010. This means we have less than a 11 months to go to slow this train wreck down. We have 11 months to get the word out, that these insane Socialistic Dictator Wannabes, need to go.

One thing we do know, is that we can not count of the State Run Mainstream Media to help us, tell us the truth, or even simply do their jobs. True Journalism is DEAD. Here is a CLEAR example of what we are talking about.

"Hey, at least we know what Michelle is wearing right?" {Laughing} Yup.

Andrea Mitchell

“What a day it was. It may take days or years to really absorb the significance of what happened to America today....When he [Barack Obama] finally emerged, he seemed, even in this throng, so solitary, somber, perhaps already feeling the weight of the world, even before he was transformed into the leader of the free world....The mass flickering of cell phone cameras on the Mall seemed like stars shining back at him.”

One they missed?

Van Jones

White House Green Jobs adviser Van Jones resigned from his post in September after weeks of pressure over his radical past. A former self-avowed Marxist and anarchist, Jones signed a 2004 petition that suggested the U.S. government was involved in the Sept 11. terrorist attacks. The New York Times and Washington Post ignored the story until Jones' resignation, which occurred in the middle of the Labor Day weekend.

What they reported?

Joe Klein

“The legislative achievements have been stupendous — the $789 billion stimulus bill, the budget plan that is still being hammered out (and may, ultimately, include the next landmark safety-net program, universal health insurance). There has also been a cascade of new policies to address the financial crisis — massive interventions in the housing and credit markets, a market-based plan to buy the toxic assets that many banks have on their books, a plan to bail out the auto industry and a strict new regulatory regime proposed for Wall Street. Obama has also completely overhauled foreign policy, from Cuba to Afghanistan. ‘In a way, Obama’s 100 days is even more dramatic than Roosevelt’s,’ says Elaine Kamarck of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. ‘Roosevelt only had to deal with a domestic crisis. Obama has had to overhaul foreign policy as well, including two wars. And that’s really the secret of why this has seemed so spectacular.’”

One they missed?

ACORN Tapes

Filmmakers James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles, posing as a pimp and a prostitute, went undercover to the offices of the community organizing group ACORN in the summer. They secretly videotaped employees instructing them in how to falsify tax forms and seek illegal benefits for 13 "very young" girls from El Salvador whom the pair said they wanted to import to work as child prostitutes. New videos emerged daily, but the mainstream media ignored the growing scandal for days, even as federal agencies began severing their ties with the group and members of Congress cried for an investigation.

What they reported?

Janeane Garofalo

“The type of female that does like Rush is the same type of woman that falls in love with prisoners. You know what I mean? They like Richard Ramirez or — Squeaky Fromme is a good example. I think Charles Manson’s — Eva Braun, Hitler’s girlfriend. That is exactly the type of woman that responds really well to Rush. And there will be some Eva Brauns, Squeaky Frommes out there that will respond really well to this cattle call right now.”

One they missed?

Science Czar John Holdren

President Obama's "science czar," John Holdren, floated a number of lethal policies to shrink the human population -- including compulsory abortions and other Draconian measures -- in science textbooks he published in the 1970s. Though the news spread widely through the blogosphere, the mainstream media never touched the controversy. Click here to see a slideshow of the radical ideas he proposed.

What they reported?

Katie Couric

“You’re so confident, Mr. President, and so focused. Is your confidence ever shaken? Do you ever wake up and say, ‘Damn, this is hard. Damn, I’m not going to get the things done I want to get done, and it’s just too politicized to really get accomplished the big things I want to accomplish’?”

One they missed.

Climate-Gate

Hackers broke into the servers at a prominent British climate research center and leaked years' worth of e-mails onto the Web, producing what some skeptics of man-made climate change said was "smoking gun" evidence of collusion among climate scientists. One e-mail referenced a plan to "hide the decline" in global temperatures, as another lamented the "travesty" that temperatures had not increased over the past decade. Prominent climate scientists discussed blackballing skeptics and admitted to dumping data to avoid public scrutiny. The head of the Climatic Research Unit at Britain's East Anglia University stepped down amid the uproar that followed. But the television networks ignored the story for so long they even got scooped by Comedy Central.

What they reported?

Terry Moran

“I like to say that, in some ways, Barack Obama is the first President since George Washington to be taking a step down into the Oval Office. I mean, from visionary leader of a giant movement, now he’s got an executive position that he has to perform in, in a way.”

One they missed.

Politicizing the NEA

A senior official at the National Endowment for the Arts encouraged artists to promote President Obama's political agenda in a conference call he organized with the White House. The NEA's communications director Yosi Sergant eventually resigned in August amid accusations that the grant-making organization was becoming politicized. The administration called it a "teaching moment," but the media didn't seem to catch the lesson.

What they reported?

Evan Thomas

“Reagan [at the 1984 D-Day commemoration] was all about America, and you talked about it. Obama is, ‘We are above that now. We’re not just parochial, we’re not just chauvinistic, we’re not just provincial. We stand for something.’ I mean, in a way, Obama’s standing above the country, above — above the world. He’s sort of God. He’s going to bring all different sides together.”

What they missed?

Chas Freeman

Chas Freeman, the Obama administration's appointee to chair the National Intelligence Council, had major conflicts of interest with the Saudi and Chinese governments as a private citizen. He referred to Tibetan Buddhist protests against the communist government in China as a "race riot," and said the Chinese had been "overly cautious" in killing hundreds of protesters in the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989.

But Freeman drew special ire for his fierce and open criticism of what he called Jewish "colonists" in Israel. Even as prominent members of Congress blasted the appointment, the New York Times covered the story only after Freeman had already withdrawn his name for consideration.

What they reported?

Thomas Friedman

“Watching both the health care and climate/energy debates in Congress, it is hard not to draw the following conclusion: There is only one thing worse than one-party autocracy, and that is one-party democracy, which is what we have in America today. One-party autocracy certainly has its drawbacks. But when it is led by a reasonably enlightened group of people, as China is today, it can also have great advantages. That one party can just impose the politically difficult but critically important policies needed to move a society forward in the 21st century.”

What they missed?

Tea Party Protests

In the wake of the bank bailouts and the federal stimulus package, some critics of the Obama administration's economic crisis plans urged citizens to mail tea bags to their congressmen as a form of protest, recalling the Boston Tea Party and unjust taxes imposed by the British before the American Revolution. The Tea Party movement grew to include massive protests, as tens of thousands of Americans joined in on Tax Day. After utterly ignoring the movement for weeks, the mainstream media finally caught up to the story, but mostly used their coverage as an occasion for sexual puns and frathouse humor.

What they reported?

John Harwood & David Shuster

Correspondent John Harwood: “He had this fly that was persistently buzzing around him....He swatted his hand and he said, ‘I got the sucker.’ He threw it onto the ground. It was a, you know, Dirty Harry ‘make my day’ moment.”...

MSNBC anchor David Shuster: “Amazing...An amazing interview....It never fails — great weather, rainbows, incredible speeches, and three-point basket. A fly and he nails it. Unbelievable. Unbelievable.”

What they missed?

Kevin Jennings, Safe Schools Czar

President Obama's "safe schools czar," Kevin Jennings, is a former schoolteacher who advocated promoting homosexuality in schools and was forced to admit he had poorly handled an incident in which a student told him he was having sex with older men. Jennings has since been tied to a pornographic suggested reading list for 7th graders that was designed by the organization he founded and directed for over a decade, and dozens of members of Congress have called for his ouster.

What they reported?

Denis Leary

Actor Denis Leary: “I do have to say that I think that President Obama is the greatest President in the history of all of our Presidents, and that he can do no wrong in my book. So how’s that for prejudice on the Democratic side?”...

Fill-in host Joy Behar: “What do you think of Obama’s pick of Sotomayor?”

Leary: “Fantastic!”

Behar: “You love her?”

Leary: “Everything you ask me about President Obama I’m just going to say it’s the greatest thing ever. I love the guy!”

One they missed?

Democratic Stimulus

A December study from George Mason University showed that Democratic districts have received nearly twice as much stimulus money as Republican districts -- and the cash has been awarded without regard to how badly an area was suffering from job losses or income problems. Blue districts garnered the majority of the $787 stimulus package, getting an average of $439 million per district to the Republican average of $232 million.

Real news IS out there. What is happening to us, and our country, is out there in the open, right in front of every one's face. Yet, the State run, Mainstream Media, will NEVER report these things. They simply report whatever they are told to. What are they told to report? Obama. They have created the Dream. They created the imagine. They will NEVER report the TRUTH. They will cover, ignore, and completely make stuff up to further the agenda of those that OWN them. That is those on a quest for Tyranny. It really is, just that simple.
