A family, as defined by the BLS, is a group of two or more people who live together and who are related by birth, adoption or marriage. In 2013, there were 80,445,000 families in the United States and in 16,127,000—or 20 percent–no one had a job. (more…)

The parallel between Eric Holder doing this and Alberto Carvalho’s program in Miami-Dade schools with the use of the MDSPD is IDENTICAL.

(Reuters) – The U.S. Justice Department on Monday said it will begin collecting data on stops, searches and arrests made in five U.S. cities to weed out possible racial biases within the criminal justice system.
Later this year, a $4.75 million federal grant will be awarded to recipients who compete for the funds to work with their local law enforcement to analyze arrest data and find ways to reduce any biases they find, particularly toward young minority men.
Black men were six times more likely, and Latino men were 2.5 times more likely, to be imprisoned than white men in 2012, according to Justice Department data. (more…)

A little more than a week after the mysterious Malaysian Flight MH370 disappearance, and the day after a report that Boeing had signal confirmation of their engines being located in Pakistan, a CIA analyst walked into the offices of the New York Times to present satellite pictures of a fake Iranian aircraft carrier. 
It seemed rather odd considering there was really no value in the story beyond exposing our spy intelligence in the region.    However, against the backdrop of the missing MH-370, and considering the images came from the CIA via DigitalGlobe -the same satellite company doing the MH-370 search- some speculated it may have been a message to regional players that we have the ability to see more than they may think we have the ability to see.   *nudge, nudge – wink, wink*
Well today:  
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — An Iranian newspaper is reporting that the country’s military plans to target a mock-up American aircraft carrier during upcoming war games. (more…)

– Post Bumped and Updated With The Video –
The first U.S. journalist to rise and ask a question during the official press conference between President Obama and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib was Chuck Todd from NBC News.
What does he choose to ask about ?
The Russia v Ukraine crisis?  EU Sanctions and growing fears of NATO nations?  G7 and the fears of another world war?  The collapse of a Japanese trade deal from the previous day ?   The coordination of U.S. search efforts for Missing Malaysian airlines MH-370?   Pan-Asian relations and nuclear agreements?
Pfffffftt….   silly rabbit.

Why… LA Clippers Owner Donald Sterling, and the existence of racism in the USA of course.

Race-baiters gotta’ race-bait.    And… of course President Obama has a well briefed response reflecting he has been *THOROUGHLY* apprised of the situation.

  Independent journalist Jack Cashill discusses his examination of the Trayvon Martin shooting/George Zimmerman case (“If I had a son: Race, Guns and the railroading of George Zimmerman”) at a forum held at the Platte County Resource Center in Kansas City, Missouri and televised on C-Span’s “Book TV”.
The entire discussion is about 1 hr  and 15 minutes long.  He opens up the discussion of his book about the Trayvon Martin shooting by laying down the foundation for the Progressive/Communist Agitprop history of politicizing non-political criminal cases for the advancement of the Socialist agenda, starting with the Sacco/Vanzetti case in the 1920’s.  It is a worthwhile listen for those who don’t have a full appreciation that the techniques used by the Progressives in the Trayvon Martin drama were from an old, old playbook.

Obama can’t get a trade deal with Japan.   Obama angers the Chinese relations over Senkaku Islands.   But hey, there’s always  “THE SELFIE”…

For some reason this continuing saga of socialist oppression seems to have escaped the mainstream media…. Sean Penn unavailable for comment (?) 

(From PanAm Post Via WeaselZippers) Peaceful protests in Venezuela will from now on require express authorization from the mayor or the governor of the jurisdiction where they are carried out. The Supreme Court (TSJ) made this decision yesterday, declaring that the right to protest “is not an absolute right.”

Police forces will now be legally allowed to disperse people who shut down a street to voice their complaints. Also, the attorney General will be allowed to prosecute unauthorized protestors for disobedience.
The TSJ considered it is imperative to “guarantee the right to free movement,” which would justify dispersing any unauthorized congregation. According to the ruling, written by Judge Arcadio Delgado, local police forces have “an obligation to cooperate with the rest of the security forces in maintaining public order during the illegal exercise of the right to protest.” (more…)

Generally we stay away from the Hollywood gossipy ‘People Mag-Type’ stuff.  However, with Dorkman Clooney we make an exception; because like the insufferable Moonbat, Matt Damon, Clooney does political stuff that can actually have adverse consequence.

This article about Clooney is so accurate it bears sharing.

(CafeMom.Com)   A lot of you ladies (and gents) out there will be disappointed to hear that George Clooney, self-declared eternal bachelor, is supposedly getting married!
Scratch that.
He’s apparently engaged (still has to make it to the altar).
People Magazine and Page Six are reporting that Hollywood heartthrob *cough* Clooney, 52,  is engaged to Amal Alamuddin, 36, the London lawyer who he has been dating for less than a year.
Oh, where to begin? (more…)

If all the raindrops where lemon drops and gum drops oh what a world it would be…. Hey, it’s Wisconsin – what do you expect. 
WISCONSIN – A Wisconsin high school is defying state law by removing “God” from the Pledge of Allegiance.
Instead of saying, “One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all,” Madison East High School has students say, “One nation under peace, with liberty and justice for all,” according to RedState.
For years, atheists have railed over including God in the pledge, and the courts have consistently ruled against them. This time, a courageous sophomore, Samantha Murphy, told her family that her school ignored state law and did not recite the Pledge of Allegiance at all, RedState reported.
When her parents raised the issue with school Principal Mary Kelley and the School Board, school officials dithered for months before reluctantly agreeing to follow the law – but only to a point. (more…)
