The Emphasis Is On The Wrong Syllable – Michael Sam being selected at all (in the 7th round of the NFL Draft – 2nd to last pick) is just another hurdle for football fans.

Why?  Arguably, without the gay orientation he would not have been drafted.

His NFL combine results were no better than average and he’s slow on ‘turning the corner speed’.  Which, if he was not an outside pass rushing linebacker, would not be so much an issue; except  it is.

Luckily, for his lack of NFL football skill, Michael Sam is also gay.   Apparently it’s important to a lot of people that a gay man play in the NFL.  (more…)

Yes you read that correctly.   The United States Secretary of State is introducing a Greek socialist headliner….  Just let that sink in a bit.

All of them are lifetime Fabian Card Holders…

(Via Washington Free Beacon)  U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will introduce liberal megadonor George Soros at an open forum on Tuesday, the latest evidence of the billionaire using his political connections to benefit his investments and foreign policy goals, critics say.

Kerry will introduce Soros at the 1:30 p.m. forum on May 13 at the George C. Marshall Center, the Germany-based security and defense studies institute jointly operated by the U.S. Department of Defense and German Defense Ministry, according to a State Department event notice.

Soros will discuss “strengthening civil society, democracy and the world economy” with Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Douglas Frantz following Kerry’s introduction.  (read more)

Alternate headline to replace: “The Obama White House Requests Cabinet Members Lie to Create False Narrative”; would be something like:

…”Shock Study – Water is wet and fire burns“.

(Via Daily Mail)   The White House wanted Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner to lie on Sunday talk shows to downplay the part Social Security played in driving the deficit, it was revealed today.

Geithner writes in his memoir Stress Test, out today, that the White House communications director asked him to downplay the long term cost of Social Security spending to mollify the Democratic Party’s base.

‘I remember during one Roosevelt Room prep session before I appeared on the Sunday shows, I objected when Dan Pfeiffer wanted me to say Social Security didn’t contribute to the deficit. It wasn’t a main driver of our future deficits, but it did contribute,’ he says.

‘Pfeiffer said the line was a ‘dog whistle’ to the left, a phrase I had never heard before. He had to explain that the phrase was code to the Democratic base, signaling that we intended to protect Social Security.’ (more…)

If you do not denounce Donald Sterling, you are a racist.
If you do not denounce Brendan Eich, you are homophobic.
Yet, if you do not denounce Boko Haram?… (((crickets)))

The progressives are so conflicted when one of “their team” turns out to be a child rapist, abductionist and murderer. Sheeesh, what’s a grievance commission to do without some middle aged white man to rail against ?

U.S. Muslim Groups Say They Won’t Move To Excommunicate Boko Haram!

(Via Daily Caller)  U.S. Islamic leaders won’t try to formally excommunicate the Islamist Boko Haram group unless they can meet with its leadership to debate the religious legitimacy of its actions, a spokesman for a leading mosque told The Daily Caller. (more…)

When do you know the White House is circling the drain of irrelevance?

Apparently the Washington Post has just discovered Michelle Obama “fist pumps”…. or something;  and they are quite giddy in their rush to share:

(Washington Post)  First Lady Michelle Obama and Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden, welcomed a group of mothers with ties to the military to the White House today for a Mother’s Day tribute.

Then this happened:

Yes, that’s Michelle Obama arm-pumping in response to cheers from the crowd after Biden referenced the fact that she was a military mom. (Beau Biden, the Delaware Attorney General, served in Iraq.) (more…)

(White House)  Hello everyone, I’m Michelle Obama, and on this Mother’s Day weekend, I want to take a moment to honor all the mothers out there and wish you a Happy Mother’s Day.

I also want to speak to you about an issue of great significance to me as a First Lady, and more importantly, as the mother of two young daughters.

Like millions of people across the globe, my husband and I are outraged and heartbroken over the kidnapping of more than 200 Nigerian girls from their school dormitory in the middle of the night. (more…)

(Via NRO)   Republicans like Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, Grover Norquist, et al. who insist that the House GOP pass Chuck Schumer’s amnesty bill are saying that Obama can be trusted to enforce whatever new immigration laws we come up with.

As if there weren’t already abundant evidence of the absurdity of such trust, a Buzzfeed story adds to the pile.

The story is about disagreement between Schumer and the White House over plans to water down enforcement even more. The less-sophisticated among the anti-borders Left are demanding that the ongoing review of deportation policy, designed to make it more “humane,” result in dramatic new curbs on the removal of illegal aliens or, even better, de facto amnesty for all illegals along the lines of Obama’s illegal DREAM Act–style DACA amnesty.

Jaw dropping Moonbattery !!

The litmus test is…. wait for it,…. whether or not you voted for Obama.  

If you did not – you’re racist.   If you did not vote for Obama, and you don’t act or behave racist – you just don’t know you’re racist.

WARNING – Mother Jones Logic […]  And thus, while our society has made progress when it comes to matters of race, subliminal categorization tendencies still permeate human behavior. This much has been demonstrated in the lab multiple times, but here are some noteworthy findings on the psychology of implicit racial bias:

Not Voting for Obama. In a very different context, these tendencies also cropped up in the 2008 presidential election, pitting a white candidate (John McCain) against a black one (Barack Obama). In a 2009 study, B. Keith Payne of the University of North Carolina and his colleagues compared explicit and implicit bias scores for a large number of individuals with their self-reported voting behavior in the election.

Previously the Metro Police said they were going to open investigations into the militia members who rallied to aid Cliven Bundy.    Now, it appears the FBI is opening an investigation to identify the same….  

Consider it the “No Cry” list !   A list of patriots who refused to back down.

NEVADA – Clark County sheriff’s officials say they’ve been interviewed by the FBI as part of an investigation into armed supporters of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy.

Assistant Sheriff Joe Lombardo told KLAS-TV that federal agents have opened an investigation into the conduct of supporters of Bundy who reportedly pointed guns at officers during a standoff at his ranch April 12. (more…)
