Ratfink Ohio Baseball Fans Snitch On Players Enjoying A Victory Cigar

Reds owner Bob Castellini passed out cigars to players and coaches amongst the champagne showers inside the clubhouse at the Great American Ballpark after seeing his team earn its first postseason berth in 15 years.

Five people watching the celebration on television reportedly called the statewide smoking ban complaint hotline. The complaints were sent to the health department, leading to a letter landing on Castellini's desk notifying him of the pending investigation.

Cincinnati Health Department spokesperson Rocky Merz said while no fines are issued for any initial violation, someone from the department will enter the stadium unannounced to look for anyone smoking in the facility."

As we all know, the biggest difference between liberals and Conservatives is thus: If a Conservative doesn't particularly like something, he doesn't do it. If a liberal doesn't like something, he rushes to have the government ban it.

We've gone way too far down the rabbithole to undo all of the damage to personal liberties inflicted upon "pragmatic" Americans who strove mightily to just get along with the Suzy-Perfects of the country.

Not a damn thing we can do to prevent them from multiplying, and yeah, its all but impossible to listen to all of that whining and not feel the urge to simply give in. But there are also times when enough is enough.

Time to draw that line in the sand and grow some backbone. Ohio is Ohio, but Ohioan panty twisting doesn't have to spread to the free parts of the nation.

Barney Franks: Siwwy Wight Wing Media Nuffing To Wowwy About

Despite reports from local Massachusetts media, Rep. Barney Frank, Massachusetts Democrat, remains confident he will win his re-election in November against his Republican opponent Sean Bielat. Former President Bill Clinton appeared with Mr. Frank recently at a political rally in Taunton last week, and Mr. Bielat claimed, according to reports, that Mr. Clinton was brought in to help buoy Mr. Frank.

"The notion that it’s a sign of panic is just silly. That’s just politics when they don’t have anything else better to say. It’s a tougher race, because once I became chairman of the [banking] committee in 2007, the right-wing media talk show hosts decided to target me."

Yeah, he's correct you know. Right Wing types tend to disassociate themselves from congress"men" who run gay brothels in their apartments. Don't know if targeting is an appropriate description, however, as even wide-angle sights might not be enough.

CalGuns wins an important victory

San Carlos CA (September 29, 2010) - The City of San Diego will pay $35,000 to gun rights activist Samuel Wolanyk for his improper arrest. The San Diego Police Department also granted Mr. Wolanyk’s petition for a Finding of Factual Innocence, admitting no reasonable cause for his arrest existed.

The lawsuit – financially supported by The Calguns Foundation, Inc., and brought by attorney Jason Davis of Davis & Associates – sought to ensure San Diego properly trains its officers to deal with law-abiding gun owners.

“We do not encourage Unloaded Open Carrying of firearms in urban areas at this time,” said Gene Hoffman, Chairman of The Calguns Foundation. “But we believe the civil rights of gun owners must be defended to the utmost.”

Nearly two years ago, “open carry” activist Wolanyk wound up looking down the barrels of two police handguns when San Diego Police officers Jody Kinsley and Troy White responded to a call of a man wearing a kilt, with a holstered gun, in San Diego’s Mission Beach area. The officers immediately exited their vehicles on arrival at the location, drew their firearms, and ordered Mr. Wolanyk to the ground."

You may read the announcement in its entirety here

“We do not encourage Unloaded Open Carrying of firearms in urban areas at this time,” is of course a genuinely asinine thing to add, but they're Californians and part of the reason I just stopped by there to cancel my membership. I won't have my named associated with any organization opposed to open-carry.

Chicago Granny Got Her Gun

Neighbors said an elderly woman was fed up with constant harassment from a 12-year-old boy, so she took a gun and shot the child after he and his friends threw bricks into her home.

Now, the boy is charged with a crime, while the 68-year-old woman is not.

The boy who was shot, along with another boy, 13, are cited in juvenile delinquency petitions with one count each of misdemeanor aggravated assault to a senior citizen, according to police.

The woman, identified by neighbors as Margaret Matthews, was released from police custody without being charged, on the grounds that she acted in self defense, police said"

She most likely used a .22 handgun and the kid is okay. Regardless of what certifiable morons law enforcement ballistics experts and Hollywood assholes screen writers say, .22's are not all that lethal unless you place the barrel to someones temple and squeeze the trigger. The mob likes 'em because they make a lot less noise and are easily concealed, NOT because they pack the payload of a Hiroshima-nuke.

That out of the way, half the neighbors, strangely enough the black ones, are remonstrating against the woman, while others, strangely enough other black ones, are saying the kid had it coming.

Tell you one thing for certain; Chitown cops don't release someone who shoots someone without damned good reason. Kid had to have been known as a troublemaker from the get go.

The Decline And Fall Of An American Presidency...

That Took A Country Down With It?

"Someday historians may wonder what were we thinking about when you look at the imbalance of power between the U.S. and Iran, and we sat there with folded hands and watched this happen, going through just enough motions at the United Nations to lull the public to sleep. That, I think, is the biggest threat."

Thomas Sowell 

It isn't that historians "may" wonder, but just one instance where historians WILL wonder why we allowed an impotent crackpot to arm himself with nukes.

5 years from now, 7 or 8 tops, the bill for Barack Obama's treason comes due when the first backback nuke is activated and reaches critical mass in NY Harbor. Then D.C., then the Pentagon. Ground Zero times a million.

Tuesday Jocularity

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. 

She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude."

She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."

"I am," replied the man. "How did you know?"

"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help to me."

The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat."

"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now...

...it's my fault.

Under The Weather

Which of course comes from the older saying that taking shelter under the weather-bow of a boat can make you sea sick from alla the rocking and rolling.

Which 'Malik Shabazz' visited the White House?

It's increasingly likely that the White House was involved in the decision to drop the election intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party and Big Government reminds us that the visitor's log indicates a Malik Shabazz visited there in July 2009. The White House has said it was a different Malik Shabazz, and Big Government asks which one, adding a timeline to show why it's likely it was the Black Panther's head Shabazz and not a stranger curiously sharing his name:

The idea that an individual named Malik Shabazz had a private meeting in the White House residence in July 2009 is highly relevant because throughout July, Congressmen Frank Wolf (R-VA) and Lamar Smith (R-TX) were beginning to ask questions about to the dropped charges against the NBPP. So was the United States Commission on Civil Rights. Here is a timeline, according to Adams:

* July 8, Representative Frank Wolf sent a letter to Judiciary Chairman John Conyers and Ranking Member Lamar Smith demanding hearings before the House Judiciary Committee.
* July 9, Ten members of the House sent a letter demanding the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation.
* July 13, The Dept. of Justice replied but their letter contained factual inaccuracies about the case
* July 17 Smith and Wolf send a swift and pointed rebuttal
* July 20, Low-level DOJ staffers were sent to the Hill to brief Wolf on the Panther story, but Wolf threw them out of his office claiming they weren't being truthful to him.
* July 22, Wolf sent another letter to Attorney General Eric Holder demanding answers.
* July 24, Portia Robinson, intergovernmental liaison at DOJ, sent a letter to the Civil Rights Commission trying to deflect attention.
* July 25, a man named Malik Shabazz visited the exclusive, private residence in the White House.
* July 30, the Washington Times broke the news that top political appointee, Tom Perrelli (the #3 official at Justice) was involved in the dismissal of the case. Perrelli was also a top campaign bundler for Obama.

The White House has assured the American people that the Malik Shabazz that visited the White House at that time is not the same Malik Shabazz at the center of the New Black Panther story. But, the White House has not provided any information to verify its contention or who this "other" Malik Shabazz is. 

                                                      
Interesting. July 25, 2009...

Caliph Barry's weekly radio address was broadcast on that date, but had been recorded a couple days earlier because the Caliph was going to be out of town on the 25th.

Someone named Malik Shazam, or whatever, visits the "private residence" on a day Barry is away...

Oh geez. The thought is simply too disgusting. 

Barry out smoking and golfing and Lord knows what else, while the head of the Black Panthers is slicing off some Kraken trim.

Barf.

Frost Cutlery Scams Anew

Evil never rests. Last night was a perfect example of why I despise the lying, cheating thieves from Frost Cutlery. Seems they were offering an every-15-minute giveaway. A Chinese knife, worth perhaps 50 to 60 cents of cheap steel garnished with pimp-appeal mother-of-pearl scales and plastic washers, was to be awarded free of charge to an over the phone purchaser. All you had to do was call to order a knife and your name "went into a hat."

One problem. Cutlery Corner is broadcast here in Florida, as well as in a lot of other areas, HOURS after the "live" show from Tennessee is over, and, obviously, so was the giveaway. No mention is EVER given to the fact that a great many people are watching a pre-recorded program, and the hustle just keeps on a'comin'. Cannot even begin to imagine how many clueless viewers thought it'd be worth a chance to "win" themselves a free knife without knowing that everyone from Frost Cutlery was home in bed and the "special customer appreciation giveaway" loooooooonnnnnnng over.

And yes, as usual they lied throughout the program, offering "factory-direct" cutlery even though James A. (stands I'm sure for asshole) Frost does not own a knife factory. Apologizing that they "just can't make 'em fast enough", when in fact they don't "make" anything.

Unscrupulous bastards just don't stop swindling folks and as long as they do I'll be here to shove a burr up their ass.

Re-Profiled Then Sharpened To A Razors Edge Kershaw Shallot in CPM S110V

So I sent a knife to a friend who does lots of testing and has a good hand with both still and video camera. The following is the video he just released, featuring my Kershaw Shallot in CPM S110V.

Why Jim? Several reasons, chief among them his being a nice guy with no axe to grind. Shit that was a play on words and I didn't mean to. Anyway, like a great many of us, Jim is interested in one thing and that's the bottom line. Which steel is best for which application. And being one of the finest hands at re-profiling and sharpening a blade as ever I've seen, doesn't hurt. Jim doesn't particular care who makes what, just how what they make works. Match made in heaven.

Why the Shallot? CPM S110V is currently THE super steel available today with regards to knife blades. Look at it this way; the light versus the darkness coming out of black holes like Frost Cutlery.

Carbon: 2.8%
Chromium: 14%
Vanadium: 9%
Columbium: 3.5%
Molybdenum: 3.5%
Cobalt: 2%

Now watch what a super-steel can do in the hands of a pro.

Voting Rights Official Calls Dismissal of Black Panther Case a 'Travesty of Justice'

The Justice Department is ignoring civil rights cases that involve white victims and wrongly abandoned a voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party last year, a top department official testified Friday. He called the department's conduct a "travesty of justice." 

Christopher Coates, former voting chief for the department's Civil Rights Division, spoke under oath Friday morning before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, in a long-awaited appearance that had been stonewalled by the Justice Department for nearly a year. 

Coates discussed in depth the DOJ's decision to dismiss intimidation charges against New Black Panther members who were videotaped outside a Philadelphia polling place in 2008 dressed in military-style uniforms -- one was brandishing a nightstick -- and allegedly hurling racial slurs. 

The case has drifted in and out of the limelight over the past year as the commission has struggled to investigate it. Former Justice official J. Christian Adams fueled the controversy when he testified in July and accused his former employer of showing "hostility" toward cases that involved white victims and black defendants.

Nearly three months later, Coates backed up Adams' claims. In lengthy and detailed testimony, he said the department cultivates a "hostile atmosphere" against "race-neutral enforcement" of the Voting Rights Act.

He said civil rights attorneys stick to cases that involve minority victims, and he said the Black Panther case was dismissed following "pressure" by the NAACP and "anger" at the case within the Justice Department itself...."

I have no problem with the Black Panther in question full frontal brandishing his big old nightstick. As a free member of this Democratic Republic, he is guaranteed access to arms, be they sharpened, percussive, or bludgeon worthy.

What makes this particular instance an intolerable one, is the fact that only HE is allowed to go so armed. Try the same thing at a different venue, with people of different colors, and see what happens.

It is of important note that our current justice system is being "led" by racists.

Time for a CHANGE we can DEPEND UPON?

Frittering Away Friday As The Cartoon Turns

The Politicians Assure That America Gets The School System It Deserves...

America's Schools...Failures? On The Contrary, Grasshopper...

Public schools aren't the failures they're castigated for being; they are misunderstood successes. True, they don't teach very much English, math, or history but that's a secondary job. Young kids are regularly suspended for drawing pictures of guns, wearing T-shirts with guns on them, possessing empty ammo casings, or anything else suggestive of an armed citizenry. That's primary, and the public schools are good at it. The students maybe can't multiply or read, but they all know guns are bad, just as they know how to do sex and sell green theory to their parents. They are turning out well-trained future voters favoring the current leftish pieties who will obediently support Progressive government and who will not ask too many questions.

Education is a low priority because teaching folks to think produces independent individuals who are troublesome to govern and become more difficult as government goes beyond a minimum. Much better just to provide basic tools to run the de-industrialized economy while building in the needed equality, groupthink, and conformity. Government wants sheep to herd, not educated, independent cats and government funds (with our taxes), and it operates the public schools. That's why neither Republicans nor Democrats have done anything about the schools, regardless of the fusses made. That is why the Republican and the Democrat running for Governor of New Mexico both oppose vouchers that would let parents select their schools, providing unwanted competition further opposed by the teachers' unions.

Chicago's Mayor Richard Daley, himself a Democrat, panned the Obamacrats' new Race To The Top law, advertised to fix the schools from Washington. It seems to sweep Bush's testing back under the rug as a favor to the teachers' unions. The status remains quo, as it has since "Progressive" education came into the public schools in the early 1930s. Meanwhile, the juggernaut rolls on, crushing true education with mind-molding; the posturing politicians pay off the schools while everybody involved makes sure nothing important changes. Those who supply both the money and the politicians who maintain the system are the only possible source of change, but no change is in sight. Like the weather, everybody complains, but nobody does anything. We deserve our schools, and we deserve the voters they are producing. "

So then; do the schools that spend the most money produce the best students?

Nope. Just the opposite, because, as we all know, that while teaching is a piece of cake, brainwashing costs plenty of money.

Deputy in town for firearms training accidentally fires weapon...

..And From A Semi-Automatic Revolver, Too!

LEWISTON, Idaho - There were some anxious moments late Monday afternoon, as police responded to a frantic call from a desk clerk of shots fired at the Inn America on 21st Street.

It turns out, it was an errant shot from a revolver fired by a Bonner County deputy who's in town for firearms training.

Lewiston Police Captain Roger Lanier said the deputy was in his room practicing what are called dry firearm drills, but had not made sure the gun was unloaded. 

The .40 caliber Glock Model 22 semi-automatic went off. The bullet went through a mirror, the wall and lodged in the wall of an adjacent room.

Lanier said no one else was in the deputy's room. He said Lewiston Police conducted an investigation and determined the accident was not reckless discharge of a firearm, which is a crime. 

Okay then. Biggest douche?

The idiot Capitan of Policia for determining that shooting your automatic revolver into the wall and endangering the life of the adjoining room's occupant is NOT reckless...

The idiot deputy who negligently discharged his automatic revolver...

The idiot who wrote the story, and didn't have enough journalistic acumen to determine that a semi-automatic pistol is NOT A REVOLVER...

Decisions, decisions.

Obama Not Fit To Be Commander-in-Chief...

White House May Attack Those "Extreme And Unhinged" Tea Partiers

Somehow average Americans who pine for constitutional limited government and the ideals of the founding period are considered extreme and unhinged. Meanwhile, White House officials and career legislators who expand the national debt and subjugate free enterprise are viewed as mainstream. That’s the world, according to the New York Times.

Consider the sub-head used on a front page story that ran on Monday about Obama Administration officials who now speculate that their party’s fortunes could be uplifted by interlinking the GOP with the Tea Party movement.

The sub-head reads: “Democrats Could Cast Rivals as Being Taken Over By Extremists.”

It is with complete certainty that one may make suggest His Highness King George believed the Founding Fathers to be "extreme and unhinged". It was after all, in response to his taxation without representation that instituted the very first Tea Party. Roosevelt thought the Japs to be unhinged, and ask a Jew, any Jew save for liberal Jews, their feelings about Hitler.

For the first time in the history of the Republic, though, there are highly placed government officials who have such a primal fear of the Tea Parties as to make personal attacks upon private citizens. Ask Lady Shelly's press secretary about her lavish Spanish vacation and the answer you'll receive is that "the first lady is a private citizen and therefore not subject to government scrutiny."

That's because Lady Shelly, Blessed in Grace To Lord Satan and all the demons in Hell,  is a SPECIAL PERSON demanding of SPECIAL TREATMENT, and so what if she uses our planes and men and resources to have a European fling, she is not, repeat not to be held accountable nor responsible.

But you and me; the regulars, irregulars, the veritable spine of the country, can be attacked at will with not only the blessing of the Obama Caliphate, but the Yellowstream Media as well.

"Emergency Bra" Turns Into Gas Mask...

Dr. Elena Bodnar won an Ignoble Award for the invention last year, an annual tribute to scientific research that on the surface seems goofy but is often surprisingly practical. And now Bodnar has brought the eBra to the public; purchase one online for just $29.95. 

"The goal of any emergency respiratory device is to achieve tight fixation and full coverage. Luckily, the wonderful design of the bra is already in the shape of a face mask and so with the addition of a few design features, the Emergency Bra enhances the efficiency of minimizing contaminated bypass air flow," explains the eBra website. 

It sounds silly, but Bodnar, a Ukraine native who now lives in Chicago, started her medical career studying the effects of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear plant disaster. If people had had cheap, readily available gas masks in the first hours after the disaster, she said, they may have avoided breathing in Iodine-131, which causes radiation sickness.

Doesn't sound silly at all. If I'm getting the gist of this, should the need for a protective breathing device arise, one can simply turn towards the nearest gal and bury his face in the cleavage?

Sweet.

Is That A Zucchini Or Are You Just Happy To See Me...

FRENCHTOWN, Mont. -- Police say a Montana woman used an unlikely weapon to fend off a charging bear - a zucchini.

Missoula County Sheriff's Lt. Rich Maricelli says a 200-pound black bear attacked the woman's 12-year-old collie just after midnight Wednesday on the back porch of her home about 15 miles west of Missoula. When the woman, whom police did not name, screamed to draw the bear's attention, it charged her and swiped at her leg. Maricelli says the woman jumped back into the doorway and reached for the nearest object on her kitchen counter - a 12-inch zucchini from her garden. The woman flung the vegetable at the bear, striking it on top of the head and causing it to flee. Maricelli says the woman did not need medical attention. Wildlife officials were trying to locate the bear on Thursday.

Strange yes its strange. Blackies are usually scared witless of dogs; women in Montana usually aren't as clueless as their liberal sisters and know to have a weapon handy when living in bear country. The headline says she was bit in the leg, the body of the story says the bear clawed her. 

Then again, tree-huggers live in Montana too, as of the last census there were 7 or 8, I forget exactly how many, so being in a kitchen...the most deadliest of rooms in the average house... and having nothing more lethal than a large vegetable might mean she was: A) Just another loon, or B) Not inclined to hurt the poor widdle bear and used her dildo zuke to get 'er done.

All in all though, poorly done piece even by Yellowstream Media standards.

Trivia For An Otherwise Quiet Thursday: The Marine Corps Hymn Once Was A 4-Stanza Song

When we were called across the sea to stand for home and right,

With the spirit of the brave and free, we fought with all our might;

When we helped to stem the German drive, they say we fought like fiends,

And the French rechristened Belleau Woods for the United States Marines.

The missing 3rd stanza was removed circa 1930 in order to make peace with the Germans who were still feeling really really sad for alla that WWI schtick and promised to never ever do bad stuff again.

Bill Clinton Lies About Reducing National Debt

"It must be nice to know you can go on a nationally televised political talk show and not be challenged when you make an historically inaccurate claim, especially when it's about yourself.

Such happened Sunday when former President Bill Clinton was interviewed by David Gregory on NBC's "Meet the Press."

The host began the discussion by asking his guest about "pretty significant developments...inside the Republican Party after this turbulent primary season."

Clinton responded by saying members of the Tea Party have "good impulses" concerning the size of government adding, "They believe those in the Republican Party believe that they've talked a good game about balancing the budget, but the debt was quadrupled in the 12 years before I became president and then we paid down the debt for four years, paid down $600 billion on the national debt."

Actually, the national debt never declined when Clinton was President. Not one year.

Guess it's all how you define what "debt" is, and what "national" is and what "boldfaced liar" is.

Typhoid Mary...Charles Manson...Jim Jones...Barack Obama

Infamous Cult Leaders And/Or Disease Carriers

Regarding the enigmatic Obama, there are many theories percolating to understand his modus operandi.  Maybe he's a warrior righting the colonialist wrongs of his father. Or perhaps he's a fiery radical, à la Bill Ayers, raging against the system. Some people conjecture that Obama is a closet Muslim, trying to unleash sharia law on the United States.

While Obama appears to sympathize with all of the above, he doesn't embody
the warrior spirit. A freedom-fighter has fire in his belly; he burns with an inner combustion, even though his cause may be twisted.

Bill Ayers, for instance, got down and dirty by bombing the New York City Police Department, the Capitol, and the Pentagon. Van Jones served time in jail during the Rodney King riots.  

But Obama the warrior? I don't see it. He's a poser and a posturer, a blank screen on which others project their fantasies. Obama does not embrace his father's dreams, nor does he have many of his own.

He's just Barry, an orphan with no country, the perennial outsider. A loner who prefers his own company or the anonymity of crowds. In clinical terms, he may be a "secret schizoid" -- outwardly engaged but, in actuality, uneasy around people.

Obama comforts himself with pleasures -- parties, golf, vacations. He's easily tempted by the allure of wealth and power. Through his affiliation with the slumlord, Tony Rezko, he and Michelle acquired a mansion.

Where was Obama's righteous indignation when black tenants endured rat-infested,  unheated apartments? Where was Obama's towering passion when he cavalierly eliminated the D.C. school voucher program? As for his father, if Obama is ablaze with Barack Sr.'s spirit, why did Junior skip the man's funeral, and why did he allow Dad's family to live in squalor? 

Obama is no warrior. He's the middleman, the closer. This country has had a date with destiny since the radical Left began spreading its poison decades ago. Obama is simply the empty suit brought in to close the deal.

Obama doesn't have the fire, or the cojones, as Palin memorably phrased it, to be a revolutionary. He likes his arugula and his fine wine. He will not get his manicured fingers dirty.

Like Cloward and Piven, he's another version of the carrier syndrome, a sort of Typhoid Barry. He gestures with his middle finger about Hillary and whips the crowd into a frenzy. Or he cajoles people to hit back hard, and maniacs beat up conservatives.

Obama sneers that Cambridge cops practice racism, and voilà, attacks against police burgeon. He demonizes the banks, and AIG employees receive death threats.    

Obama doesn't lose his cool. Aside from the occasional passive-aggressive comment (for instance, saying snidely that Rush Limbaugh can play with himself), he's composed. Obama knows his role well. It was conceived and crafted before he was even born. 

Unlike Mary, Obama is a carrier not of typhoid, but of something much worse -- the sickness of hatred. He mesmerizes the masses with his magnetic charm. He casts a hypnotic spell over the desperate and forlorn.

They become the warriors. With the snap of the hypnotist's finger, they'll do the dirty work for him.

Most cult leaders wind up dead or imprisoned. Just think; all this misery in a scant 18 months, and sometimes it seems the lad is just getting started, but a great many of us hope his salmonella-impregnated feathers will be clipped soon. 

When we regain the House, then the Senate, the next great American hope will be the investigation, then prosecution of those who've aided and abetted the most prolific terrorist in American history. He's stupid because he believes himself immune from the wrath of civilization, but like ALL international criminals eventually the gig is up. Make no mistake about this, he's not going down easily, though, cornered rats rarely do

Awaiting his comeuppance with bated breath.

Female teachers accused of sex with minors

Two Boiling Springs teachers are facing charges after deputies say they threw parties for teenagers that involved alcohol, marijuana and sex.

Sarah Jane Lindsay, 42, of 438 Maplecroft St., and Audrey Beidleman Grabarkiewicz, 44, of 230 Sandy Drive, were taken into custody by Spartanburg County sheriff's deputies Monday. Police had been investigating since a parent came forward with a complaint in July.

Lindsay, a teacher at Boiling Springs Elementary, is charged with nine counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and criminal sexual conduct with a minor between 11 and 14 years old.

This is horrible. Disgusting. Totally out of bounds.

That teachers didn't act this way WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL.

84 Year-Old Vet Has Neck Broken By Officer...

ORLANDO -- 

An elderly man is in critical condition after being thrown to the ground by a police officer.
 
It happened Saturday night near North Orange Avenue after police say Daniel Daley put his hands on the cop.

The World War II veteran is out of surgery.  He suffered an injury doctors at Florida Hospital say only about 10 percent of people are lucky enough to survive.

Daley left the Caboose Bar and headed to his car across the street Saturday night.
    
Witnesses say the 84-year-old was upset when he saw his car was about to be towed.
    
The Ivanhoe Grocery owner recently posted signs warning drivers because customers of other businesses were parking in their spots.
    
Several people, who didn't want to go on camera, say it has led to plenty of arguments the past few weeks, but none with the potentially deadly consequences that happened Saturday.    
    
The police were called and say Daley, who'd been drinking, put his hands on the officer.
    
Witnesses say he put his hands on the officer three times and the cop warned him to stop each time.
    
Police say Daley made a fist and said ‘I'm not leaving until I knock this cop out.’

Another witness says the officer then violently hip checked him and took him to the ground.

Daley ended up in Florida Hospital with a broken neck.

The old guy was wrong, dead wrong. Then again, he's an old guy and most of the time they ARE wrong. Knocking him to the pavement was uncalled for, but this isn't yesteryear, back when the old guy grew up, back when cops respected the elderly.

Now he knows, but too painful a lesson at that age. As a volunteer driver for the aged I have dealt with many old men who wanted to vent by taking a poke at me. Never had to deck one, never could have lived with myself after decking one.

But cops are hourly told how special how important how intricate they are to ticketing motorists for going 2 miles over the speed limit keeping the peace and will do whatever they can get away with. 

Damn The Original StarTrek

For introducing the very idea of being able to communicate like this:

 

Cut to the chase…

For mainstream media to survive, if not thrive, it must embrace social media and take on the critical role of curator of the conversation. For social media to remain relevant and avoid slipping further into a wall of noise, it must work hand in hand with news organizations to create a symbiotic storytelling relationship.

The result will be a kind of curated grassroots conversation that has the authenticity of social media and the reach and authority of mainstream media.

The above claptrap was taken from Echo Blog; that horrific place you can visit by mistake while trying to figure out why your PAID-FOR comment section sucks so badly.

Key words that should send you screaming into that dark night: "embrace", "relevant", "curator", "symbiotic", and I'll toss in "wall of noise" for good measure.

Yes kids, these are the dolts who cannot create and/or maintain a simple commenting section, but they're here to tell us all how modern media should work. Perhaps if they spent a little more time on the fundamentals of what they do for a BUSINESS, then Echo might be worth a damn.

And yeah, the original Star Trek writers wracked their brain housing groups to come up with language that was stunted, inhuman, ass-backwards, and a scourge upon English, in order to make it appear as if alien beings had written or uttered an otherwise familiar phrase. "CAREGIVER" was something that made me cringe back then and is part of the vernacular now, but to tell the truth if I could go back in time and had the power, I probably wouldn't change a thing.

It was good on so many levels and it isn't Star Trek's fault that loons learned how better to obfuscate.

PS: The comment section appears to be working properly, meaning only one click will bring you to the area that one click should naturally bring you to if Echo was properly designed. Again and again I asked them how to fix the thing but at the end of the day had to work it out by myself because they spend too much time trying to out-Trek Star Trek.

Almost. Two days away, but the nutcases are really coming out of the woodwork. My emails have taken a decided turn for the lunatic, and a 3 year old post was just thusly commented upon:

Here's a link to the post, but you really don't need to be going there. All the fun is in the above message from an obviously well educated person of high breeding.

Chanting "U-S-A" Is Decidedly Anti-Moslem

..So Says This Lunatic Fringer*

"The vast majority of 9/11 observances in this country cannot be seen as politically neutral events. Implicit in their nature are the notions that lives lost at the World Trade Center are more valuable than lives lost in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and elsewhere; that the motives of the 9/11 attackers had nothing to do with genuine grievances in the Islamic world regarding American imperialism; and that the U.S. has been justified in the subsequent killing of hundreds of thousands in so-called retaliation.

The vast majority of 9/11 observances in this country cannot be seen as politically neutral events. Implicit in their nature are the notions that lives lost at the World Trade Center are more valuable than lives lost in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and elsewhere; that the motives of the 9/11 attackers had nothing to do with genuine grievances in the Islamic world regarding American imperialism; and that the U.S. has been justified in the subsequent killing of hundreds of thousands in so-called retaliation.

The observance at Saturday’s football game was no different. A moment of silence was followed by a military airplane flyover; in between, Block-I students chanted “USA, USA.” This was neither patriotism nor remembrance in any justifiable sense, but politicization, militarism, propaganda and bellicosity. The University is a public institution that encompasses the political views of all, not just the most (falsely) “patriotic.” 

Athletic planners should cease such exploitation for political purposes. They might at least consider how most Muslim students, American or otherwise, would respond to this nativist display; or better, Muslims and others that live their lives under the threat of our planes, drones and soldiers.

The overwhelmingly white, privileged, Block-I students should be ashamed of their obnoxious, fake-macho, chicken-hawk chant, while poverty-drafted members of their cohort fight and die in illegal and immoral wars for the control of oil. University administrators need to eliminate from all events such “patriotic” observances, which in this country cannot be separated from implicit justifications for state-sponsored killing.

David Green,

University Academic Professional

Personally, I've never been fond of the USA-USA chant; always reminds me of something people from a third-world country or some other filthy place like Russia would use instead of a hooray.

That said, I seriously hope that it does INDEED offend moslems and other dirty people, and will also now begin chanting U-S-A...U-S-A...

Now with regards to Mr. Green, who is, in fact, an Academic Professional for Excellence, or APE for short, methinks he need be tarred, feathered, then flayed, just for general purposes.

Every Day Carry: Cold Steel American Lawman

Disregarding the name, which would have been a lot catchier and more true to facts were it to have been called the "Krispy Kreme Kutter", Cold Steel's American Lawman has been building a head of steam and attracting lots of highly favorable attention.

An awful lot goes into a modern pocketknife these days. Just ask Frost Cutlery. Wait. NEVER ask Frost Cutlery anything cuz they lie.

Fact of the matter is, everyone who owns one likes  the thing an awful lot, and here's why




Specifications:
Blade: 3 1/2" Overall: 8 1/8"
Thick: 3.5mm
Weight: 4.5 oz.
Japanese AUS 8 Steel

Large enough to be considered somewhat of a serious cutter, but small and lightweight enough to toss in the pocket, and that right there is enough for a look-see. The steel, competently heat treated, is good enough for most applications and inexpensive enough to keep the knife somewhere in the range of $70 to your door. The G-10 handles are grippy as all get out, some say maybe too much so but those someone's are probably hairdressers who like to keep their darling little fingers nice and soft.

Relatively low cost, great locking mechanism, decent steel, and black, let's not forget oh-so-black, adds up to a winner, and while I recommend only what I consider to be the absolute best products, the Cold Steel Lawman does warrant your attention because to your way of thinking it could very well be the cat's meow.

Clicking the headline link will provide you with mostly more bullshit but still and all a way to order the thing too.

When Only Weasel Words Will Do

"Support For Obama's Historic Candidacy Is High" (their headline not mine)

"The day a black president took office was historic in American society, and a new University of Florida study shows many Americans are proud. Political Science Department Chair Michael Martinez says telephone surveys conducted during the election season and immediately after found surprisingly low levels of upset and racism among white voters, in fact many supported the candidacy. He says these findings could be encouraging for future minority candidates who may expect a more accommodating electorate."

Even in outrageously liberal Gainesville, finding enough folks to say anything good about Caliph Barry is becoming a chore. So what's a Political Science department to do when their fair-haired boy is being pummeled to Mergatroid?

Conduct a poll that is fashioned in such a way as to focus upon his race...remember now, for liberals its all about race 24/7...then slowly begin spreading the lie that wait a minute, most Americans really DO like Mr. Soetoro after all!

Brought To You By Those Wonderful Folks Called Public School Teachers, Its: Take Your Kid to a Radical Mosque Day!

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but wouldn’t the ACLU, Barry Lynn, and Rachel Maddow all crap a ball of barbed wire and birth seven cows if a public school took students to a church to be taught erroneous world history then evangelized by Ignatius the Ultimate Youth Pastor and invited to get on their knees and pray to Jesus? 

Uh, heck yeah they would. 

Heads would immediately begin to roll in said school, and the left’s panties would get in an inextricable wad over the violation of the Establishment Clause they supposedly care so deeply about. This, if true, would no doubt also cause Keith Olbermann to stroke out on live TV—which would be a shame because if Keith croaked then who would we, the columnists, have to BBQ on a regular basis?

The above is what occurred in May, 2010 when Wellesley, Massachusetts public middle school students took a field trip to the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center—a controversial Saudi-funded mega-mosque run by the Muslim American Society of Boston.

This “cultural center,” by the way, has had several of its leaders (past and present) linked to terrorism. One of their darlings, Abdul Rahman Al-Amoudi, is currently serving 23 years in the slammer for an al-Qaeda terror plot. 

This is the same “cultural center” that Federal prosecutors say is an overt arm for the Muslim Brotherhood and that has wife-beating tips for Muslim men on its website (they’ve probably been deleted by the time you’ve read this column).

Yep, this is the mosque hundreds of students were bused to in order to become more “well-rounded and open to new ideas.”

To see the shocking undercover vid of this inexcusable nonsense, public school parents and patriots, go here and be prepared to get righteously disturbed."

Uh-huh; the kids all learned how to drop down and pray to Allah.

So bearing that in mind, we officially ordain the town of Wellesley, Mass. to be today's WORST PLACE ON EARTH.

Texas Governor Perry Tells Washington To Butt-Out

I’d rather stay in Texas and compete against my other 49 brethren and let Washington get back to standing a strong military, which they do an admiral job of; defending our border, which they are abject failures at; and maybe even getting back to delivering the mail on time and on Saturdays. Until they get those three right, please don’t come down to our states and tell us how to run our business.

Good to see that Texans still know how to hire a decent enough Governor.  Click here to read the full interview with a man who won't cave to Washington kickbacks.

Whistle Blower Proves Barry's Department Of Injustice To Have Lied In Black Panther Case

Former Department of Justice attorney in the Voting Rights section J. Christian Adams has been blowing the whistle on the department for months regarding their lax enforcement of voting rights for any case other than those involving blacks as victims.

Today at PJ Media, he reports that Judicial Watch has unearthed a bombshell: Proof that it was political appointees and not career civil servants, as DoJ has been insisting, who scuttled the Black Panther Party voting rights case.

Yes, the cretins over at Caliph Barry's Department of Injustice were lying their craven asses off about why the Black Panthers were not prosecuted for voter intimidation. 

Deceit, fraud, and virtually anything unconstitutional they can get away with. Welcome to the America where Indonesian/Kenyan (at one time or another both countries have claimed him as a citizen) Barry Soetoro reigns supreme. Virtually everything this man has uttered as being the truth has been demonstrated to be a callous misrepresentation, so why NOT disbelieve his claim to citizenship?

I'm not a birther; just someone who can smell a liar a mile away, and the littlest Caliph stinks to high heaven.

"...just another rabid neocon who would probably shit himself down each leg if any one came near enough to swing at you....leave the shooting and the killing to the police who know what there doing...then go back to dreaming about your imaginary adventurs..."

I really don't know what in particular fanned the flames of this loon, and since my emailed response was returned as undeliverable I thought I'd have a go at replying here.

I've been on both ends of a barrel my fine, frenzied, friend, and cannot ever recall such goings on causing a bowl movement. But if you've got pictures I'm dying to see 'em.

After years of practicing I don't think it'd be much of a stretch to declare myself at least as capable as the more competent members of the constabulary with regards to defending myself against a gremlin. Can still draw, fire, and hit a pie plate at 20' in about a second, and while that's damned ass slow compared to those that do it for fun & profit, it'll have to do. Was lots quicker way back when but didn't mind missing as much as missing pisses me off these days. Or, I could drop to a lesser caliber; hot .40, .45, and .357 loads can wrestle you hither, yon, and back to hither again if you let them, but a 9mm or .380, .32, etc, would certainly result in quicker shots but that'd mean learning the manual of arms all over again.

By and large I've no complaint with my proficiency in the defensive department, but I can sense that you take umbrage at my thoughts and ideas, as opposed to how fast my trigger finger happens to be, and for that there's but one remedy:

Go fuck yourself.

Better Students? Then Big Bird Must Die

By Robert Weissberg

"All learning requires pain, but the least able academically must necessarily suffer the greatest distress. Properly reading even a comic book versus just looking at the pictures requires decoding novel words and keeping the plot straight -- not easy for the barely literate. For those lacking English fluency -- a phenomenon increasingly common in American schools -- the pain of school learning is especially intense.

The Sesame Street approach has become the pedagogical orthodoxy so students can supposedly learn and feel good about their modest accomplishments. Consider one authoritative, typical example: Merrill Marmin's Inspiring Active Learning: A Handbook for Teachers (1994). Here's how teachers are taught to motivate students: Move lessons quickly to prevent boredom, even if students fall behind; include varied material in lectures (but not so diverse as to confuse students) so something will always be attention-getting material; shift topics when sensing growing boredom; do not wait until students are attentive to begin talking since they will catch up; and avoid repetition to keep it exciting (but return to the subject later if necessary).

Conspicuously absent from this approach (and many similar ones) is teaching children to persevere when confronting initially confusing or boring material. This is light-years from George Orwell's observation that classical education is impossible without corporal punishment. It is a recipe for promoting attention deficit disorder and building self-confidence apart from any demonstrable accomplishment. Semi-literates will never know the truth. Teachers are further told to post anxiety-reducing classroom posters like "Everyone makes mistakes" or "It's okay to make mistakes" or "Hunting for right answers is more important than right answers." It is no wonder that educational professions hate testing -- it contravenes their core beliefs about how to teach."

  
Mr. Weissberg dismisses a certain elephant in the room, the one happy with portraying America as a ghetto country replete with garbage strewn streets and unintelligible actors whose accents are thick enough to ride a homemade skateboard on. 

The fall from grace of our public school system can be traced directly to the Sesame Street factor. Learning from a book or listening to a good teacher stimulates different areas of the brain then does cavorting cartoon characters, and actually LEARNING is what education is supposed to be all about. Not making the little darlin's happy. Not making the teachers happy.

Bring me the head of Big Bird.

We've Heard This All Before...But...

GOP Plan: Draw 'Line in the Sand' on Spending

Looking to take over the House come November, Republicans are planning to chip away at Obama's legislative agenda — particularly the health care law — by depriving programs of cash.

Well it sure as hell better be different "Republicans" drawing that line, because when it comes to spending, our weak-kneed little sisters of charity have done their fair share of spiraling us into deeper and deeper debt.

Obama doesn't care, neither does Nancy Pee. It's their JOB to ruin the American economy in order to usher in a federal takeover of everything from butter to bullets, so our "Republicans" better do something because what would be in store for Caliph Barry can just as easily land upon THEIR shoulders, too.

This is serious stuff, make no mistake about it. Right this very minute I'd vote for Florida's secession from the Union, and if we kept the dead people, the illegal immigrants, and the Black Panthers away from the polls, much of Florida would do the same.

We'd have to take out Disney, that's for sure, but it'd be a piece of cake handling that Mickey Mouse outfit.

Moslem President Barry Drops Mention Of "God" From Declaration Of Independence

President Obama gave a speech last week in which he quoted the Declaration of Independence. Sort of. He made a small, but telling edit.

The Founding Fathers’ version: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness…”

President Obama’s version: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness…”

Hmmmm. Strange edit for a self-professed Christian, would you not agree?"

Yep. Moslems are only allowed to call Allah, Allah. Even by his saying "creator", and even with the koran being okay with lying, he'd be on thin ice by using "Creator" instead of Allah.

Clicking here or the headline link will take you to I Hate The Media whereupon you may also bear witness via the video of his mightiness,  Caliph Barry The Great changing our Declaration.

Reporter Fired For Telling The Truth About Obama...

Hold The Presses And Contact Diogenes* Immediately...

WJLA-TV has fired veteran anchorman Doug McKelway for a verbal confrontation this summer with the station's news director that came after McKelway broadcast a sharply worded live report about congressional Democrats and President Obama. 

McKelway was placed on indefinite suspension in late July after his run-in with ABC7's news director and general manager, Bill Lord. In a letter to McKelway this week, the station said it was terminating his contract immediately, citing insubordination and misconduct. 

Amid the ongoing BP oil spill in July, McKelway covered a Capitol Hill demonstration by environmental groups protesting the influence of oil-industry contributions to members of Congress.

In his piece, McKelway said the sparsely attended event attracted protesters "largely representing far-left environmental groups." He went on to say the protest "may be a risky strategy because the one man who has more campaign contributions from BP than anybody else in history is now sitting in the Oval Office, President Barack Obama, who accepted $77,051 in campaign contributions from BP."

Luckily, Emperor Barry and Lady Shell-Shell were most likely unawares of Mr. McKelway's daring to report the truth. Not like either are remotely literate or interested in anything not hand fed to them.

Liberals And Brain Cancer...Incurable Diseases Of The Mind...

And In Obama, We've Been Infected By The Mother Of All Epidemics

by Chuck Roger

"Back in 1969, while teenagers debated the message behind a barefooted McCartney on the "Abbey Road" album cover, little Barry Soetoro, son of an absent communist father and future protégé of a communist mentor, was slogging through an unhappy childhood in Indonesia. Barry would take the name Barack, partner with Pentagon bomber William Ayers, and use a school reform project to push left-wing ideology and social unrest on young minds. Barack would become America's most radical president. William would express no regrets for his Weatherman underground's 1970s marching orders to youngsters: "Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents."

My friends and I sort of liked our parents. Besides, decoding song lyrics and procuring fake IDs for beverage purchases left little time for revolution.

Our favorite bands pushed controlled substances and out-of-control sex. Hard radicals like Ayers channeled anger into violence against "the man" and "the system," only to later infiltrate the system and become the man. Soft radicals like Barack Obama infiltrated from the outset. Products of neglectful and often bizarre upbringings, Obama types developed insatiable urges to cure society's ills. No one should feel less-than. Everyone must be made equal.

Although most Americans reject forced equality, since the '60s, we have dutifully bowed to the weak thinking of political correctness, the "inclusiveness" of "diversity," the "fairness" of affirmative action, and the "tolerance" of multiculturalism. We underestimated the dangers posed by evangelists preaching pretty theories that ignore human nature and sane economics. Graduates of the school of Lennon and Zeppelin, we tried to "imagine no possessions" in "a brotherhood of man" where "all are one and one is all." We smiled politely at depravity in order to show that we "appreciate differences."

Too many of us manufactured excuses for personal, family, and societal problems caused by buying into liberal dogma. And our minds weakened.

Then Barack Obama moved to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Suddenly, synapses in our brains that had gone dormant fired up and began to calculate the cultural and economic ruin assured by liberalism on steroids. We quickly recognized that our lengthy foray into mindlessness had taught us how to distinguish between fact and fancy.

We learned that liberals are conceptually disabled critters who struggle to link cause to effect and place exclusive value on perception over reality. Now we clearly see ideologues clinging to childish innocence, uploading their minds to utopia, and resisting the left-to-right evolution experienced by emotionally healthy adults, a process called "maturing."

Immaturity has drawbacks. Liberals offer people compassionate but hastily conceived "helping" programs that create dependence on help and demand for more. And that's sad, because most liberals really do want to help fellow human beings.

To be fair, liberals do assist owls and the delta smelt. Whales and polar bears? Sure. But improve the human condition? Not a chance. Liberals are weighed down by childhood confusion and paralyzed by a mean truth: useful results flow from useful effort. For illustration, we look to people like Barack Obama, for whom useful solutions don't hold a candle to showy alternatives that win praise and warm the heart.

Yet the heart can mislead. Covering for the shortcomings of sons and daughters may feel good, but smart love teaches children that action and inaction have consequences. Showering people with unearned praise and unearned money might seem nurturing, but coddling must die before character can come alive. Nowhere in the liberal toolbox do we find the powerful love that lets people fail, grow up, and learn to succeed.

Many radicals never grow up. Barack Obama will relentlessly try and miserably fail to establish "social justice." Our president is an ideologue whose upbringing tied his soul into knots, a man whose mind may never escape the debilitating simmer of radicalism. Obama is a misguided man of average intelligence, told since childhood of his brilliance. In a stroke of genius, Barry-cum-Barack calls for shrinking the prosperity of high earners and small businesses in order to help people who could help themselves by taking jobs created by high earners and small businesses.

What a spectacle the American people now witness. Barack Obama grows increasingly agitated at having to account for the awful consequences of his policies. When reminded of his failures, the president treats us to how-dare-you exhibitions of petulance. Our Narcissist-in-Chief refuses to admit any error and continues to push wealth-destroying, class-dividing liberalism to extremes.

Yet in the final analysis, we have ourselves to blame for our country's condition. To be sure, Barack Obama's catastrophic presidency has crowned five decades of ever more leftward government insanity. But our mess is the logical consequence of too many Americans going liberal. Too many of us accepted too many feel-good lies and did too little too late to stop a culture-killing ideology from commandeering education, news and entertainment media, business, and government.

Decisive action is long overdue. Liberals must be reduced to harmless minorities in government. "Conservative" politicians who haven't the guts to support truth, logic, sound economics, objective science, and rational social policy must be fired. It is time to shut down the ideology that almost liquefied the American brain. Liberalism has got to go."

I feel your pain, pal, but all organisms need a predatory one to keep them in check, and on planet Earth nature has decided that liberals are that organism. 

Eventually, researchers will find a cure for pretty much whatever ails us, except for our enduring nemesis. The insufferable lefty.
