The Denver Post re-edited their initial story removing the reference to the shooter being a socialist. When challenged about why that decision was reached the editor of the DP began a series of obfuscations and ridiculous explanations:

@Whatwesettlefor We decided not to have another student apply a label to the shooter — a label the student likely didn't even understand ..

Glitchy Madness – Registering for ObamaCare is like playing Lotto with your life…
(Via Daily Caller)  Nearly 15,000 enrollment records from Americans trying to sign up for Obamacare never made it to insurers — but the federal government does not know which records never made it to which insurer.

The federal analysis merely compares the number of times Obamacare enrollees clicked “enroll” to the number of plans HealthCare.gov sent to insurers, according to The Washington Post. Consumers who send the vanishing enrollments, or “orphan files,” are not notified that their information has not been processed and an insurer did not receive sensitive financial and health-related data, meaning that they could be in for an unpleasant surprise when the Dec. 23 deadline — the last day for customers to sign up for health insurance — comes and goes.

So Speaker John Boehner doesn’t LIKE US ?

In 2009 we had a decision to make.   Either assemble our rapidly growing force under a new structure, a new political party; or align and take over an existing structure, and existing political party.     A prudent decision was made in 2010 to just take over an existing structure – Conservatives became insurgents within the Republican Party.
Initially the GOP saw benefit to our association.   Through us they could gain back the House of Representatives, and we did.   We handed them the gavel as a stop-gap measure to slow the growth of the infection, big government, that was killing our freedom.
But the GOP doesn’t like us.   We are not *their* type of people.  We are surly, deliberate, loud and, according to them, unrefined extremists, jihobbits and terrorists and such.   They consider us a rowdy bunch more comfy with a beer straight from the bottle and incapable of appreciating the aroma of their preferred vintages.
In short, they don’t like us.  We represent a risk to their influence, careers and livelihoods built upon retention of power.
Screw em’. (more…)

Amnesty Legislation – Mitch McConnell supports it,  The U.S. Chamber of Commerce supports it, The Republican Party Supports it, every single Democrat supports it, and you are going to get it whether you want it or not.
WASHINGTON DC – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said she spoke with Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday and asked when an overhaul to immigration laws could be considered in the House.
“He told me yes, we have to wait until next year,” Pelosi told reporters on Wednesday morning.
Democrats have been pushing House Republicans to hold a vote on a landmark immigration reform bill that was passed in June, or try to work on their own immigration legislation. But Republicans have been apprehensive, with the most conservative members opposed to anything that could provide a pathway to citizenship or legalization for undocumented immigrants.  (continue reading)

They have a literary agent?   Out of an abundance of caution, and under the advice of physicians, I will refrain from commentary.  FOR NOW.   However, I would like to know your thoughts on what their book should be titled.

(NEW YORK) The parents of Trayvon Martin met with publishers this week to shop a book about their son, the unarmed black teenager who was shot and killed in Florida in 2012.

According to two publishing executives who participated in meetings, Mr. Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, said they intended to write a book that gives the full picture of their son while tracing their own experience of shock and sorrow.
The meetings were described as somber and moving by publishers who were present. Ms. Fulton and Mr. Martin were accompanied by Jan Miller, their Dallas-based literary agent. (more…)

Thamsanqa Jantjie, the fake sign language interpreter from the Mandela Funeral is reportedly -according to his own admissions- being treated for schizophrenia.
However an alarming investigative media report released today from South Africa also reveals he has faced serious criminal charges before including:  rape (1994), theft (1995), house-breaking (1997), malicious damage to property (1998), murder, attempted murder and kidnapping (2003) charges.

The case and court files around the Murder and kidnapping charges have mysteriously disappeared.    It appears that most of the other charges were dropped from prosecution around the defense that Mr. Thamsanqa Jantjie was mentally unfit to stand trial.
He was convicted of the theft charge and sentenced to three years in prison, however it is undetermined if he actually spent any time incarcerated.   On the rape charge he was acquitted – reason undetermined. (more…)

Yesterday Nancy Pelosi had a curious reaction to the budget deal made with Republicans.  Prior to the vote she instructed her fellow Democratic leaders to “embrace the suck.”
Jake Tapper questioned her about it:

PYONGYANG, North Korea — North Korea on Friday announced the execution of Kim  Jong Un’s uncle, calling the leader’s former mentor a traitor who tried to  overthrow the state.

….”Wait,…. Wait,…. Wait…., Annnddd FIRE” !…..
…..”See,…. I tell you uncle Dog Boy run fast”…

The announcement came only days after Pyongyang announced through state media  that Jang Song Thaek — long considered the country’s No. 2 power — had been  removed from all his posts because of allegations of corruption, drug use,  gambling, womanizing and leading a “dissolute and depraved life.”

The state news agency KCNA said a tribunal examined Jang’s  crimes, including “attempting to overthrow the state by all sorts of intrigues  and despicable methods with a wild ambition to grab the supreme power of our  party and state.”

The Senior underage hooker customer/senator from New Jersey, and the Junior doesn’t live in New Jersey but plays one on TV plutocrat/senator from New Jersey, are joining the fast for immigration crowd in DC whom we are told have not eaten in almost 8 weeks yet don hair and makeup routines for photo-ops.

The Robert Menendez / Corey Booker angle is outlined HERE.

(Via Politifact)  It was a catchy political pitch and a chance to calm nerves about his dramatic and complicated plan to bring historic change to America’s health insurance system.

“If you like your health care plan, you can keep it,” President Barack Obama said — many times — of his landmark new law.
But the promise was impossible to keep.
So this fall, as cancellation letters were going out to approximately 4 million Americans, the public realized Obama’s breezy assurances were wrong. (more…)
