Feds Making NYCity Spend $27M to Change Lettering on Street Signs

Insane 'Taliban' Ad for Alan Grayson Backfires

Alan Grayson, Democrat candidate for re-election to the House of Representatives is known to be a big mouth, hot-headed, thin skinned leftist.  His latest ad against his opponent, Daniel Webster, reaches a new low in political campaigning.

Taking his opponents words COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTEXT and twisting them to produce an image OPPOSITE to that which the opponent really was portraying has appeared to backfire on Grayson.




Here's Webster's full quote, via the Orlando Sentinel:

"Find a verse. I have a verse for my wife; I have verses for my wife. Don't pick the ones that say, um, she should submit to me. That's in the Bible, but pick the ones that you're supposed to do. So instead, love your wife, even as Christ loved the church and gave himself for it, as opposed to wives submit yourself to your own husband. She can pray that if she wants to, but don't you pray it."

Obama appointee told me to stop pursuing race-neutral enforcement of Voting Rights Act

This is testimony [before the Civil Rights Commission] by an ex Dept. of Justice employee. He is one of two who have testified concerning the DOJ unwillingness to prosecute cases of whites being denied voting rights.  This is at the heart of the "New Black Panther" case.

"In the spring of 2009, Ms. King, who had by then been appointed Acting AAG for Civil Rights by the Obama Administration, called me to her office and specifically instructed me that I was not to ask any other applicants whether they would be willing to, in effect, race-neutrally enforce the VRA.  Ms. King took offense that I was asking such a question of job applicants and directed me not to ask it because she does not support equal enforcement of the provisions of the VRA and had been highly critical of the filing and prosecution of the Ike Brown case."     [Hot Air]

Christopher Coates takes the stand, cont'd Share Post Print S

"

A Justice Department prosecutor defied his superiors by testifying at a U.S. Civil Rights Commission hearing Friday, where he leveled an explosive allegation: top officials in the department gutted a voter intimidation case against a fringe African American militant group because the suspects were black and their alleged victims were white.
The prosecutor, Christopher Coates, also said the downgrading of the case against the New Black Panther Party was evidence of a Justice Department culture which discouraged "race neutral" enforcement of civil rights laws, frowned on prosecuting minority perpetrators and folded under pressure from black and Latino rights groups. After President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder took office, the culture intensified, Coates told the panel, ultimately leading to his departure as chief of the voting rights section early this year."

And all through the town

Emotions all up and down!

With a cat in my lap

Had cut off the TV

Tired of political crap.



When all of a sudden

There arose such a noise

I peered out of my window

Saw Obama and his boys



They had come for my wallet

They wanted my pay

To give to the others

Who had not worked a day!



He snatched up my money

And quick as a wink

Jumped back on his bandwagon

As I gagged from the stink



He then rallied his henchmen

Who were pulling his cart

I could tell they were out

To tear my country apart!



' On Fannie, on Freddie,

On Biden and Ayers!

On Acorn, On Pelosi'

He screamed at the pairs!



They took off for his cause

And as he flew out of sight

I heard him laugh at the nation

Who wouldn't stand up and fight!



So I leave you to think

On this one final note-

IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM

GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!

• No, you will not nationalize health care or manufacturing.
  
• No, you will not mortgage our children's and grandchildren's futures for any reason, let alone paying off your supporters.
  
• No, you will not place limits on media that serve only to silence criticism against you.
  
• No, you will not engage in a foreign policy that apologizes for our actions or undermines our allies.
  
• No, you will not use the Department of Justice as a political weapon.
  
• No, you will not view our Constitution as amendable at will by a handpicked judiciary without our consent.
  
• No, you will not cripple our industries with federal regulations designed to promote the wishful desires of the left.
  
• No, you will not play politics with our security to attempt to appeal to groups that will be beneficial to your electoral desires.

Most importantly at the top of a growing list is the direct statement of what the "party of no" truly means.

Oh, nothing. It's just that it just seems we haven't had a chance to talk for a while. I mean, I know we've both been busy for the past year or so. You with your fundraisers and golfing and stuff, and me with all those appointments at the unemployment office. But you know I think it's important in a relationship like ours to keep the lines of communication open. .......... " [Iowahawk]

Professor who was attacked by Muslim extremists fired by college

"Two months ago Professor T. J. Joseph was forced from his car and brutally attacked in front of his mother and sister in Kochi, India as they returned from Sunday Mass. During the bloody attack Professor Joseph was stabbed several times and the palm of his right hand was hacked off by a sword wielding thug. Surgeons at Specialists Hospital in Kochi performed two advanced micro-vascular surgeries to re-attach the severed palm and Joseph spent the remainder of the next two months recovering at his home.

The attack on Professor Joseph had been carried out by Muslim extremists who were enraged by an exam question which they perceived to be offensive to Muhammad. Bowing to pressure from the Muslim community, Newman College suspended the professor................ " [American Thinker]

Obama is pulling down the shades on union financial disclosure

"Should a union officer be able to keep his full compensation from the union treasury secret from the members?

Should a union officer be able to accept personal payments from businesses the union has dealings with and then keep such dealings confidential?

Most would think the answer to these questions is an obvious “no.”

Union management does not agree and they are willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars from their members’ dues to prevent any such reporting and disclosure." [Washington Examiner]

Media Bigotry Showing

"The amount of anti-conservative vitriol wrapped in accusations of racism that make it into the reporting and commentary on the Tea Party movement or town hall meetings is shocking.

Researching via the excellent Newsbusters, a media watchdog group, allows me [the author] to provide you with an abbreviated list of examples.

1. Chris Math: Palin Supporters Racist -- 'White vs. Other People'
2. Cynthia Tucker - 45% to 65% of townhall protesters are racist

Smartest President in History Botches Oval Office Rug Quote

"Woven into the new presidential seal rug adorning the Oval Office is a misattributed quotation, offering us a perfect metaphor for the Obama presidency." [American Thinker]

After describing Obama's quotation error, the article goes on to describe the paucity of ACTUAL evidence of Obama's high intellect, great mind, and brilliance in academics.... characteristics often used to describe Obama..... and then says:

"For some reason or other, Obama has been able to skate through academia and politics without ever being seriously challenged to prove his depth.."

In my opinion, there is no mystery as to the reason this happened. In his college days, academia caved in to the political correctness mavens. In their world it is not reasonable to question the credentials, the actual skills and knowledge of a black person.... especially one who speaks so well (no jive talk, uses all the right leftist code words, dresses well). By default he has been given a mantle of protection against those who seriously question his knowledge, skills and qualifications. He has worn this mantle throughout his entire life and is shielded by it today.

Former Car Czar Rattner Rats on Obama

The auto takeover was NOT done in the best interest of the country ..... IT WAS ABSOLUTELY A POLITICAL CALCULATION !!!!!

"..... this is the first kiss-and-tell book from the Obama team.

..... shows Obama as "out to get" the car companies and the administration making political decisions about how to deal with bankrupt automakers GM and Chrysler.

-Rattner describes presidential political adviser David Axelrod coming to car meetings armed with poll data to support the takeover and Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel identify Congressmen in whose districts large Chrysler facilities were located.

[and the book depicts Obama as the business illiterate that we all knew he was] -Rattner said Obama was frustrated with the auto companies from the start: "Why can't they make a Corolla?" he has Obama asking." [Fox News]

US forces still in fight at end of combat mission

"Even as President Barack Obama was announcing the end of combat in Iraq, American soldiers were sealing off a northern village early Wednesday as their Iraqi partners raided houses and arrested dozens of suspected insurgents." [AP]

Cantor: Beware of the Obama tax increases

"Listening to the Democrats this summer, you're unlikely to hear about an impending tax increase. In an effort to sanitize their historically irresponsible decision to raise tax rates in the midst of a struggling economy, President Obama and the congressional majority say they are merely "allowing the Bush tax cuts" to expire.

Skillful messaging perhaps, but cold comfort to the millions of Americans and small businesses who aren't concerned with what their effective tax rate was in 2001." [USA Today]

Harry Reid Now Denies Saying “This War Is Lost” (Video)

Arizona Now Has ‘Whopping 30’ National Guard Troops and 15 Billboard Signs Warning Citizens About Drug Cartels Operating on Public Lands

" “We have a whopping 30 [National Guard troops] this week that are showing up,” Babeu told CNSNews.com. “It’s less than a half-hearted measure designed to fail.”

But the federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has placed 15 signs along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 that links San Diego with Phoenix and Tucson warning travelers of drug cartels and human trafficking operations.

“DANGER – PUBLIC WARNING, TRAVEL NOT RECOMMENDED,” read the signs placed along Interstate 8. “Visitors May Encounter Armed Criminals and Smuggling Vehicles Traveling at High Rates of Speed. Stay Away From Trash, Clothing, Backpacks, and Abandoned Vehicles.” [CNS News]

Typical liberal look-at-America-through-a-toilet-seat perspective

"Last week, the Obama State Department submitted a report to the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights on the supposed human rights violations taking place in the United States. According to the Washington Times, the report describes how the United States discriminates against the disabled, homosexuals, women, Native Americans, blacks, Hispanics and those who don't speak English.

.....for many citizens, this report is a rank anti-American manifesto and the last straw. Many believe it to be outright evil, that there is no other word to encompass Obama's disgraceful and indefensible decision. This odious report has placed America -- us -- on a list of human rights violators that includes Iran, North Korea, and Sudan. And Mr. Obama and his administration have done it purposefully, intentionally, and with malice aforethought." [American Thinker]
