There is no mention in the accompanying report about former President Jimmy Carter joining a coalition of U.S. dignitaries for the Mandela funeral / memorial.

Could Mr Peanut have been excluded from invite because it was his administration who designated Nelson Mandela as an international terrorist?    Hmmmmmm….

Here’s the Politico article about who’s going –  […]  The younger Bush and former first lady Laura Bush “gratefully accepted” the invitation of President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama to travel aboard Air Force One, spokesman Freddy Ford said. The trip will be for “memorial services next week,” but Ford didn’t specify whether that means the Obamas and Bushes will attend a large memorial planned for Dec. 10 in Johannesburg or go to the state funeral set for Dec. 15 in Mandela’s hometown, and referred questions to the White House.    (read more details)

By now almost everyone is aware of the “exclusive” MSNBC/Chris Matthews interview with President Obama on Thursday.

However, many may not know the venue,  American University’s Greenberg Theatre, was previously booked by a 7 and 8-year-old dance troupe, Ballet Petite, to present their Christmas Nutcracker Ballet under a $25,000 contract.   A contract the university cancelled/dismissed without any consideration.  The university just told the troupe and the parents, “tough”.
…Because when it comes to exclusive propaganda no previous commitments are bold enough to break the demands of the sycophants.
(Via Washington Post)  The fight for Christmas took a hit this week when politics bigfooted  a troupe of adorable little ballet dancers performing “The  Nutcracker.”
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews is scheduled to interview  President Obama on Thursday night at American University as part of the  “Hardball College Tour.” MSNBC approached AU to host the chat, and  officials jumped at the chance for a free, hour-long commercial for the  university and its students.
But the interview, announced Tuesday morning, abruptly kicked the  Ballet Petite’s rehearsals of ”The Nutcracker” out of AU’s Greenberg  Theatre. That didn’t sit well with the ballet school’s staff, teachers  and parents who have been preparing for the performance for months. (more…)

Expect to see a celebration of communism take place at the National Cathedral in Washington DC!

Apartheid, as a political structure, was wrong.  Oppression is always wrong.  It is antithetical to Freedom.   However, as much as Apartheid was antithetical to freedom of the majority – so to is Mob Democracy antithetical to freedom of the minority.

NEVER LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE:   The left needs a boost in the U.S.   Their progressive ideological systems, and subsequent sales pitches, are fraying under the now visible weight of consequence – most notably with Obamacare.
Expect to see a significant attempt to *use* the death of Nelson Mandela to pump up the associated progressive causes; the Che Guevara of Africa.
The claims of victimization, inherent in the ideological goals of the progressive left, need emotional boost to maintain their disconnect from the sunlight of actual and truthful consequence.     Nelson Mandela’s death presents an opportunity to return to the use of emotionally connected Cultural Marxism to advance their cause.
It will be large, it will be massive, it will be substantial – and it will take place using the full weight of the progressive left, the professional grievance industry, labor unions, socialists, communists, marxists and all forms of radical left-wing ideology. (more…)

Sheesh,…. Just when you may have thought it was ok to put the neon big lettered 1980’s white-guilt quilt/blankie back into a hermetically sealed box, South Africa’s version of Communist Che Guevara, Nelson Mandela, dies.

Dust off the Bob Geldof albums, wait…. no, that’s Sir Bob Geldof now…  see if you can find your Bono U2 cassettes, try to remember the words to “We Are The World”, and get ready to cry while listening to sorrowful Paul Simon VHS replays with tribal drumbeats and elephant cries.   How’d that James Taylor tune go again?…
Ya see, predictably we have to look forward to ten days of historical rewriting, and  simultaneously avoid mentioning the explosion of African AIDS and a never lost bromance between Muamar Kadaffi, Fidel Castro, and Winnie Mandela’s insta-meal ticket. (more…)

More on this entire interview later, but just listen to the salutation:  “loyalists to you”

When Obama was proclaiming he was going to be “transparent”, I doubt the listeners actually understood what he was saying. For Dear Leader Obama, it’s always about Dear Leader Obama.
First we start with the “I”, “I”, “I”, speech about how Obama himself was the really important figure, the epicenter of anti-apartheid sentiment in South Africa, and how “he” thought of that other, now dead, Mandela guy.  (skip the video to the 2:00 minute mark)

The speech was followed up with this tweet from the White House showcasing how it is really Dear Leader Obama who deserves to be recognized today upon the passage of the other dead guy.

Wisconsin is one of those really progressive regions where the media talking about Black on White violence is strongly discouraged.  
Wisconsin is also the state which brought forth the collegiate “White Guilt” classes.
(PennLive) – With his blackened eyes and broken nose, Tim Bessette may just be the country’s latest victim of an urban crime wave known as the “knockout game.” Speaking from his hospital bed in Milwaukee this week, the 53-year-old says he’s lucky to be alive.

He remembers getting off the bus, walking down the street and encountering four youths. The next thing Bessette knew, he was sucker-punched in the nose. The world went black, and Bessette woke up on the pavement. And as he did, he heard the youths running away, joking and laughing. (more…)

A State Funeral is being scheduled.

Last week a New York City politician, Charles Barron, said the only way to stop black’s from punching Jewish people and non-blacks in the face was to pay blacks to stop.   This week another local politician steps forth to say it’s the Jew’s fault.

 NEW YORK – A local New York City politician and ally of mayor-elect Bill de Blasio says  the recent spate of “knockout” attacks in Brooklyn may stem from “a genuine  concern” about Jewish influence.
Laurie Cumbo, the councilwoman-elect for the Brooklyn neighborhood of Crown  Heights, made the comments in an open letter posted to her Facebook page. In the letter,  Cumbo reports that many of her African-American constituents are alarmed by the  growth of the local Jewish community.
The resulting tension, she says, could have lead to a number of attacks on  Jewish residents that bear the hallmarks of a “game” in which teens attempt to  knock someone unconscious with one punch. (more…)
