The Dr. Phil show will debut a new season on Monday September 10th.  Initially we knew that Mark and Sondra Osterman would be appearing to promote their new book, “Defending Our Friend The Most Hated Man In America”, along with the current wife of Tracy Martin, Trayvon’s step-mom, Alicia Stanley Martin.

Alicia is/was the step-mom of Trayvon Martin and the most consistent and stable female influence in his life for many years prior to his death.  She has made almost no public statements, and it was part of the controlled media narrative to keep her along with girlfriend, Ms. Brandi Green, out of the Ryan Julison created media construct.   However, apparently Alicia has found her voice.   Good for her.

The media consultant, Ryan Julison, who was hired by Martin Family attorneys Benjamin Crump and Natalie Jackson on March 5th, immediately felt it was better for the “public optic” if it appeared Tracy and Sybrina were more “traditional” parents. (more…)

DECEPTICONS 101

Democrats have a habit of trotting out General Colin Powell whenever they find it beneficial to have an optic of a well known self-described Republican who will belittle the “conservative sentiment” within the party.

So consider this recent picture from the London Olympics… (more…)

MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry passionately asks:  “What is riskier than living poor in America? Seriously! What in the world is riskier than being a poor person in America? I live in a neighborhood where people are shot on my street corner. I live in a neighborhood where people have to figure out how to get their kid into school because maybe it will be a good school and maybe it won’t”….

Do you really want to know what’s riskier? Really? Well, you better be well prepared to confront your own ideological race-based paradigms, because I will tell you straight up. (more…)

The prog’s entire life is a series of hypocritical avoidances and pretzel twisting illogical positions.    So this example is not a surprising contrast (but it is good):

Responsibility?   Heck who is the party of anti-independence?   (Via Wolfiles) Mayor Mia Love is running for the House of Representatives in Utah and, if elected, will be the first black female Republican member of Congress. (more…)

In Franklin Indiana, parents must pay for their children to be provided with transportation to school.   One woman campaigned to get the fees removed for lower income students and for subsidies to offset the cost (taxpayers to foot the bill).

In essence, she wanted to help poor children whose parents wouldn’t pay for them to ride the bus.   Consequently the majority of those helped by her action and advocacy, for free bus transportation, were black students.

On the first day of the school year, at the first opportunity for those assisted students to ride the bus free of charge,  her own 14 year own son was brutally beaten on the school bus by one of the black students benefitting from her efforts.

After crawling up, down, and inside out of everything associated with Sheriff Joe for more than three years, the feds did not find squat…. it was a pure political witch hunt.  In a typical Obama/Holder DOJ manuever the Feds announce the non-finding and dropping of their investigation at 5pm on Friday night of a holiday weekend.   Jerks.

PHOENIX — Federal authorities said Friday that they’re closing their abuse-of-power investigation into Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Arizona without filing charges against him.

Authorities were investigating America’s self-proclaimed toughest sheriff for his part in failed public corruption cases against officials who were odds with him. Arpaio brought cases against a judge and two county officials in 2009.

Federal authorities also decided to not prosecute matters tied to alleged misuse of county credit cards by sheriff’s officials, alleged misspending of jail-enhancement funds and other matters. (more…)

“The Introduction”

On the night of February 26th, 2012, the life of George Zimmerman was changed forever.

Since that date he has been saddled not only with the anguish of having to take a life to save his own, but he has needed to endure the obligatory state-sponsored witch hunt to boot.

These are the burdens that few ordinary humans will ever have to bear. In times like these it’s always better to surround yourself with people who you TRUST.

Inevitably, in this day of GREED and SELFISHness, there are many people who use situations like this as a platform to further their own agenda. George Zimmerman has seen this GREED manifest itself in many forms from those he considers his best confidants. (more…)

Must watch video.   The only question the videographer missed was asking the Obamabot to define “Rich” and what standard should be applied for progressive considerations.

This is what Obama’s Chicago HQ Looks Like in 2012

(Via NewsBusters)  During live coverage of the Republican National Convention here in Tampa, Yahoo News Washington bureau chief David  Chalian provided the perfect example of the pervasive anti-Republican bias  Mitt Romney faces in his bid to unseat President Barack Obama.

In video broadcast Monday night by ABC and Yahoo over the Internet, David Chalian  can be heard claiming that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his wife  Ann are unconcerned about the fate of residents of the New Orleans area who are  currently being hit by Hurricane Isaac.

“They aren’t concerned at all, they are happy to  have a party when black people drown.”

That line elicits laughter from several employees listening in on the  joke.

(Via Colin Flaherty) After looking at hundreds of cases of black mob violence in more than 70 cities all over the country in the last three years, I have found that racial violence is far more widespread than I had ever imagined.

As is the denial of it.

But you do have to know how to find it.

So let’s look at one case [of unreported black mob violence]: How the press ignored it; how the police denied it; and how we figured out what really happened on Aug. 5 when 800 people were fighting, firing guns, destroying property and “confronting” Delaware State Police at 2 a.m.  […] (more…)
