Joan Walsh is a regular pundit for the MSNBC Chris Matthews Hardball show.  She is also editor for Salon.   A committed liberal hack, who is now screaming mad at anyone who points out the HHS failures for Obamacare.

 (Salon) — As predictably as night follows day, on Monday the media establishment pivoted away from obsessing about GOP extremism and the party’s alleged “civil war” to the “train wreck” that is, allegedly, the Affordable Care Act.
And liberals helped lead the pivot.
Don’t get me wrong: The problems with Healthcare.gov are real, and disturbing, and must be fixed asap. (Think Progress has a dispassionate assessment here.)
But excuse me if I believe the president knows that without my telling him. It’s like watching the 21st century version of the rise of the Democratic Leadership Council, and I feel the way I did back then: On the one hand, yes, it’s important for Democrats to acknowledge when government screws up, and to fix it.
On the other hand, when liberals rush conscientiously to do that, they only encourage the completely unbalanced and unhinged coverage of whatever the problem may be. (more…)

Today, yet another example of a black youth mob attacking a white couple hits the local New York Media.     CNN?  MNSBC? CBS-ABC-NBC?…. = nothing to see here, move along, move along…. It’s simply the same national media approach taken toward the Virginia Pilot mob assault last year; heck, it’s virtually the exact same scenario.
White couple driving through black neighborhood, their car hit and kicked, the driver gets out to check for damage and then WHAMMO the black mob begins their assault.
But reverse the races and this would be national news – So, what gives?

Last year while defending Trayvon Martin, MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry went on a ridiculous diatribe (December 3rd 2012), about America not being a safe place for “young black men” because non-black people are refusing to be attacked by them.
Same insufferable logic surrounding “The Safari Principle” best identified in the mantra of ‘George Zimmerman should not have gotten out of his car’;  To which you can now add several more examples…

THE SAFARI PRINCIPLE – George Zimmerman left his vehicle, oh my!

The hidden subtext could be construed as the following… In modern America, a prudent citizen should know to remain in their vehicle, doors locked, windows up, when there are young black males known to be in the vicinity.

What does this say about our society?

Are we living in a drive through Safari Park?

If we get out of our vehicles we deserve what we get and we shouldn’t blame the animals, much less shoot them in self-defense?

Intellectual Exercise – Reverse the Races.    Think about what the headlines would look like if a group of white teens dragged a black couple from their car while shouting “die nigger”, “get that black whore”… and beat the man and his wife mercilessly….. THAT would be national headlines on all major media 24/7, Sharpton and Jackson would be quick to the scene, and CNN would be calling again for that national conversation.   Yet a group of black thugs do it, yet again, and it’s merely a local story buried from sight.

NEW YORK –  A group of 10 black youths — one of them a 12-year-old girl — surrounded a  white couple’s car in Brooklyn, viciously beating the husband and yanking the  wife to the pavement by her hair as they peppered the two with racial slurs,  authorities said.

“Get those crackers!” some of them screamed,  according to court papers. “Get that white whore!”

The confrontation erupted about 7 p.m. Monday, as the marauding group crossed  Avenue U at E. 58th St. near Kings Plaza Shopping Center in Mill Basin.

Ronald Russo, 30, and his wife, Alanna, apparently had the green light and  the husband honked at the group to get out of the way. The rowdy kids started  kicking the car, according to the criminal complaint. Ronald Russo got out to  check on potential damage to his vehicle.

And that’s when all hell broke loose. (more…)

One person, that’s ONE PERSON, said:  “that be like stealin'”.   Like stealing?

“Springhill Police Chief Will Lynd confirms they were called in to help the employees at Wal-Mart because there were so many people clearing off the shelves. He says Wal-Mart was so packed, ‘it was worse than any black Friday’ that he’s ever seen”.

Louisiana – The Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) system allows recipients of government food stamps to purchase goods using a digital card with a set spending limit, but for a few hours over the weekend, that limit disappeared for many users visiting Walmart stores in Louisiana.

Walmart and local police in Springhill and Mansfield confirmed to CBS affiliate KSLA that officers were called into the stores to help maintain order Saturday as shoppers swept through the aisles at two stores and bought as much as they could carry.
Xerox, which hosts some of the infrastructure used by the EBT card system, told KSLA that a power outage during a routine maintenance test caused the temporary glitch.
Walmart workers phoned their corporate headquarters to ask how they should handle all the shoppers with unlimited, government-funded spending limits, and were told to keep the registers ringing. (more…)

Every time we see the media lie and hide behind this talking point…:

‘Obamacare is a law passed by congress, signed by the president, and upheld by the Supreme Court’.

….we will highlight the falsehood and update with recent events.

This week NBC’s David Gregory used it in an interview of Senators’ Dick Durbin-(D) and Rob Portman-(R):

Let me just raise this issue about ObamaCare, because I want to come back to that. One of the issues is that for conservatives, this has been such a huge issue, even though the law’s been passed and upheld by the court, they still argue, “No, there’s a basis to really try to make it better, to replace it, to get rid of it.” – David Gregory on Meet The Press

FIRST WATCH THIS VIDEO:  [<— It has not been seen enough]

Another video from today’s Veterans’ March shows another angle at confrontation with the regime.
What I find interesting is how the liberal left, who supported the entire construct of the Occupy Wall Street movement, now find themselves demanding the police begin to attack the protesters.   The same people who rallied for visible confrontation for their Occupy cause’s are now the same people proclaiming the Tea Party is just too aggressive in their voice demanding freedom and reduction in government influence.

It’s an interesting psychological reconciliation on display. It will be further interesting to see how the media covers it.
The parasite Occupiers who, in vast majority and their own comfortable proclamation, did not pay federal taxes and yet were demanding more government benefits, rec’d warm underdog treatment from the liberal media as they confronted the regime.   So how will the media cover increasingly frustrated tax payer expressions from those within ‘middle America’ who ultimately are the providers of the underwriting?
Lastly, as you review the media response, imagine for just a minute that George W Bush was still in the White House against the backdrop of these confrontations. How would that change their coverage?

Police believe 22-year-old Lindsey Sparkles Lashayla became angry at the way 21-year-old Kim Kilgore was driving.    Lashayla allegedly followed Kim to her apartment and then shot and killed her.   Police do not believe that Kilgore and Lashayla had ever met before.
If the races were reversed this story would be a major national news story as a “racial hate crime.”   Instead it is quarantined to local Georgia news while avoiding racial motives.
GEORGIA (Cobb County)  –  Cobb County police have arrested and charged a suspect in the fatal shooting of a college student following a road rage incident in Kennesaw early Friday morning.

The only reason this is happening is specifically because the: Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, Samantha Powers, Cass Sunstein, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett,…. crew of checked scarf wearing, Palestinian sympathizing, jew hating, left-wing, scum sucking progressives’ have been rebuked by the vast majority of Freedom Patriots in Egypt. Period.
