Re-posted for recoverydotgod but perhaps many people will also benefit from revisiting.
RE-POST:  Perhaps this update is best contrasted against the concept of “Six Degrees Of Kevin Bacon“. The associations highlighted explain how Tracy Martin, Trayvon’s dad, was put into contact with Benjamin Crump, the proverbial head of the “scheme team”, and along the way the cast of characters is quite interesting.
As well as one seeking political office in Miami-Dade.

Mr. Trayvon Martin was not the only person creating a well, shall we say, “colorful“, on-line and in-real-life social style. Indeed, the new age social media platform(s), in all their unintended varieties, provide an odd connectivity to even the most embarrassingly public of profiles. Especially when running for political office 😉
Here is an odd story of association that stems from within this Reuters article: (more…)

Feeling underexposed having run out of late night talk shows to visit, without Oprah to send invitations for more TV appearances, and now no-one paying attention to the vegetable garden.  President Obama steps in to appoint his beard to head the US Olympic delegation.     All Obama, all the time.   LOOOOK AT MEEEEEEEE…..
WASHINGTON DC – First Lady Michelle Obama will head up the presidential delegation to the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony this summer.

President Barack Obama on Friday named FLOTUS, the U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom and four Olympic medalists to the U.S. delegation. (more…)

The Right Scoop just *updated* their blog with this comment:  “I think I blew it with this one. The tactic referred to by Carney in his press conference yesterday and referenced in my video below is gun-walking, not gun-running. I mistakenly conflated the two of them. Gun-Walking to be clear is the weapons we allowed into Mexico that were never traced – the 2k weapons that turned up into the hands of the Cartel, one of which was used in Brian Terry’s death.
In the video below they are referring to gun-running which did start under the Bush admin. Now both you and I know that the announcement in March 2009 was likely the beginning of Fast and Furious under the guise of Project GunRunner. But the video below doesn’t prove that and thus I have deleted it.
The only question that remains in my mind, and it’s a big one, is how in the world can Jay Carney and the White House say gun-walking started under the Bush administration without supplying proof that it did? No, we all know it didn’t start under the Bush administration or else they’d release the documents and vindicate themselves.  In any event, I’ll try harder to not conflate these two in the future.”

The fact that this insufferable little crapweasel took the podium yesterday and continued to lie to our faces is beyond belief.  How…let me repeat….how can he continue to assert Holder put an end to something Holder himself says he didn’t even know about?  We’ve gotten to the point with this administration where the spoken word means absolutely nothing.
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney maintained several times yesterday that gun-running was not generated out of Washington DC and when A.G. Eric Holder found out about the tactic of gun-running, he stopped it. But this is simply not true. Deputy Attorney General David Ogden at a news conference in March of 2009 clearly associates A.G. Holder and the Obama administration with the tactic of gun-running:

For those of you who will contest this clip is out of context, go watch the entire 30 min news conference at C-SPAN.

Now that George Zimmerman’s own account is available for review, in his own words, his specific story no longer needs speculation as to construct, only credibility.   Now it is just a matter of seeing if the foresensics, witness statements and physical evidence align with his statements.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but it appears all the evidence supports Zimmerman sans DeeDee.  It appears the DeeDee narrative is the only contradiction to  all of Zimmerman’s statements.
Over 5 hours questioning on the night of the 26th, another time during the walkthrough re-enactment on the 27th, and then again back at the police department on the night of the 27th for more recorded questioning.   All statements consistent including the passing of a Voice Stress Lie Detector Test.

The Orlando Sentinel has a history of blatant media manipulation in the same lying manner as NBC News.   However this one is WAY OVER THE TOP !    Here is a screen grab from their article about George Zimmerman and the “Voice Stress Test”.

Go there now to see how they were forced to the change the false statement when challenged with the Truth.  They changed at 2:38pm 

(CBS News) — Documents obtained by CBS News show that the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) discussed using their covert operation “Fast and Furious” to argue for controversial new rules about gun sales.
In Fast and Furious, ATF secretly encouraged gun dealers to sell to suspected traffickers for Mexican drug cartels to go after the “big fish.” But ATF whistleblowers told CBS News and Congress it was a dangerous practice called “gunwalking,” and it put thousands of weapons on the street. Many were used in violent crimes in Mexico. Two were found at the murder scene of a U.S. Border Patrol agent. (more…)

(via ABC NEWS) “He took my head and slammed it against the concrete several times, and each time I thought my head was going to explode and I thought I was going to lose consciousness,” George Zimmerman told police the day after he shot and killed Trayvon Martin.
“I started screaming for help,” but Martin pressed his hands over Zimmerman’s mouth and nose, he said. “He told me to shut the f&#k up, and I was suffocating.”
Zimmerman told police he was lying on the ground, but his head was on the concrete.
“I didn’t want him to keep slamming my head on the concrete so I kind of shifted. But when I shifted my jacket came up…and it exposed my firearm. That’s when he said you are going to die tonight. He took one hand off my mouth, and slid it down my chest. I took my gun aimed it at him and fired.”

The latest and most detailed account yet of what happened in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26 comes from a voice stress test that Zimmerman passed, along with a video re-enactment, a handwritten statement and audio interviews conducted in the days after the shooting by investigators. (more…)

“Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.”

Any attempt to justify the firing of Sanford Police Chief, Bill Lee, in any form other than admitting it to be self-serving political interest, and short-sighted racist appeasement, is political correctness run amok.     You can’t pick up that turd by the clean end, period.
If you have followed this case, and actually read the accompanying research, you would admit as such with intellectual, albeit uncomfortable, honesty.  Chief Lee is being cast aside, blamed, ridiculed, obfuscated and sacrificed in the same manner, by the same people, for the exact same reason, as those who attack George Zimmerman himself.

This is a developing story.    CNN reports that Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee has been FIRED !!   More to come soon…
SANFORD —   Police Chief Bill Lee, who has been under fire for his department’s handling of the Trayvon Martin case, has been fired, according to his spokesperson.

Lee’s spokesperson, Sara Brady, confirmed the news Thursday. She says city manager Napoleon Bonaparte terminated Lee, but the details have not been finalized. (more…)
