Good thing we’re not on the jury or she’d have rec’d an extra year under CTH insufferable rules violation #1:

“Your honor, we the jury object.  This defendant has a profound inability to move the needle on our give-a-damn meter; may we be excused”. 

EARLIER:  “She is a daughter of Ethel and Robert Kennedy and a niece of our past president, John Fitzgerald Kennedy,” said Kerry Kennedy’s lawyer, Gerald Lefcourt, to jurors in the packed White Plains court room, even adding that his “religious” client had two daughters who attended Ivy League schools.   She should be found not guilty of driving under the influence of a sleeping pill because she’s a human-rights activist whose life-saving work would be severely  curbed if she was sidelined by jail.

(New York) She’s a mom, a human-rights leader — oh, and another fatherless Kennedy.

Testifying in her own defense at her drugged driving trial Wednesday, Kerry Kennedy wasted little time before playing the “Daddy” card.

“Daddy was the attorney general during the civil rights movement and then a senator,” the 54-year-old testified, supposedly explaining why she grew up in Virginia, but coyly invoking the memory of her slain father, Sen Robert F. Kennedy. (more…)

Many have suspected this for quite some time.    We have known this for quite some time.   Edward Snowden releases new NSA documents which point out – There are paid intelligence and data operatives who professionally troll website content and comment pages based on federal strategies and objectives.

(WASHINGTON DC) The Internet has provided a forum for average people throughout the world to disseminate, share and debate information unattenuated by gatekeepers in the mainstream media and their politically connected friends.

New media outlets like Personal Liberty Digest™ have, for years, been warning readers that the well-connected and ruling elite, displeased by this newfound proletariat freedom, have been prolific in attempts to undermine and marginalize information provided by any media outlet unwilling to obey the same unspoken rules that govern the content choices of major media outlets.

Now, thanks to the efforts of National Security Agency whistle-blower Edward Snowden and journalist Glenn Greenwald, readers no longer have to take the word of “paranoid” bloggers who relate tales of paid government trolls lurking in comment sections and other concentrated top-down efforts to muddy the information provided by alternative media.

Trayvon Martin’s father, Tracy, appeared on MSNBC yesterday to talk about the second anniversary of Trayvon’s death.   Tracy Martin discussed America’s obsession with guns.

However, as with all things from Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton the TRUTH is 180 degrees divergent.

Apparently Tracy Martin was all for Trayvon having a gun, until after Trayvon was killed and then he changed his position.    You see, he was all for teens with guns, before he was against them. (more…)

Muslim print shop stores will now be open to litigation if they refuse to depict their prophet Mohammed on customer T-Shirts.  Muslim restaurant owners are now open to litigation if they refuse to make Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato sandwiches….. oh yeah, and Catholics business owners are now open to civil rights litigation if they refuse to participate in same sex marriage activities…..

(Raw Story) – After days of protests and criticism levied against her state, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer (R) said on Wednesday that she vetoed SB 1062, which would have effectively legalized discrimination based on religious grounds.

Brewer said she had not heard of one example of religious freedoms being attacked without the bill, considered it broadly worded, and did not address any specific concerns.

She further said that SB 1062 “has the potential to create more problems than it purports to solve” and would be divisive “to a degree that no one would ever want.” (read more)

Sometimes people ask me what a liberal splodey head looks like.   Many of my library versions are dated.   However, thanks to the wonderful peeps at Legal Insurrection we now have a more recent video to assist in the audio-visual department.

A UCLA student burst into tears and launched into a mostly incomprehensible anti-Israel rant on Wednesday after her fellow students voted to defeat a student council resolution aimed at divesting from the Jewish state.

UCLA’s student council defeated the boycott resolution by a vote of 7 to 5 following an all-night session, according to the blog Legal Insurrection.

Pro-Tip: Being guilty of creating a considerable number of splodey heads myself, the best response to the uncontrollable Splodey is to find a sufficient pause, then state:

“Are you done with that”? “Because if you are, or whenever you reach that point, you still LOST”.

Remember it was President Obama who said there was not even a “smidgen” of corruption in the IRS targeting of conservative groups.

WASHINGTON DC – The attorney for Lois Lerner, a central figure in the IRS scandal, said Wednesday his client will not comply with a request to return to Capitol Hill next week to testify.

Attorney William Taylor said Lerner, who resigned last year as the agency’s tax-exempt organizations chief, will return only if compelled by a federal court or if given immunity for her testimony.

Taylor stated his position in a letter to Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. He was responding to a letter Tuesday from Issa saying, in part, that Lerner’s testimony remains “critical to the committee’s investigation.” (more…)

Germanys former Ministry of State Security –  “Stasi”:  One of Stasi’s main tasks was spying on the population, mainly through a vast network of citizens turned informants.

How does pre-1990’s East German “Stasi” apply to modern 2014 New York ?   The answer is within the following article:

YORKTOWN — A Putnam County special patrol officer resigned from his position Friday, one day after being accused of illegally possessing weapons, authorities said.

Steven P. Zagorski, a former Putnam Valley police officer who worked as a Putnam County Sheriff’s deputy before retiring in 2004, was arrested by Yorktown police about 5:45 p.m. Thursday after a search of his home yielded several unregistered guns, Yorktown police said.

Zagorski, who has more than 30 years in law enforcement, had most recently been working as a special patrol officer assigned to the Putnam County Board of Elections in Carmel, officials said. Putnam County Sheriff’s Capt. William McNamara said Zagorski’s resignation was accepted.

McNamara said his office began investigating Zagorski last month after receiving information that the 66-year-old illegally owned several guns.

Yeah, think about it.   What lengths do you think these people will go to in their efforts to avoid sunlight ?   Carvalho is deeply connected to the political machine.  He turned down the position of Federal Asst. Secretary of Education – He’s connected deeply to both the President and First lady, as well as Eric Holder.  He’s also deeply politically attached to FL State Attorney General Pam Bondi.  

This is the man who created the M-DSPD issues which led to illegal diversionary programs in Miami-Dade Schools and eventually Trayvon Martin’s death…..  It just sickens me to see this guys get away with this, like – you have no idea.

MIAMI-DADE – Riding a cresting wave of accolades, Miami-Dade Superintendent Alberto Carvalho has been named the country’s top schools chief.

The School Superintendents Association announced in Nashville Thursday that Carvalho had won the 2014 National Superintendent of the Year. Carvalho, who attended the event with two school board members, said he was “humbled and honored” and as he accepted his award his first thoughts were of his father.

The award, given to one of the country’s 49 state superintendents of the year, is likely to further ever-present speculation about whether Carvalho will seek public office or a job on a bigger stage. But Carvalho said in an interview Thursday evening that he remains as focused as ever on working for the 350,000 students of Miami-Dade County. (more…)

We wrote about the attack yesterday, but we just noticed an ABC media report which includes another version of the victim statement to the police.  Identifying something the media refuse to accept is real:

Waggoner told police that he heard a suspect say:

…“if you want to be all the way in the club, you have to kill the polar bear.”  (ABC News)

Screen shot from ABC/Yahoo News Report

A white Dayton Ohio bus driver was fixing a bus when a group of three black teens savagely attacked him in their attempt to gain gang membership.

Rickey Wagoner (pictured left), was shot multiple times in the chest, and hip.

Wagoner described the attackers as young black males, likely in their late teens. He said they fled in a dark-colored 1990s model Ford. No arrests have been made.

According to a police report, Wagoner told investigators he believed the shooting may have been a gang initiation. He said he heard one of the suspects tell another to kill him “if you want to be all the way in the club.” (full story link)

Notice in the local Dayton Daily News article (screen shot above) they cut out the full victim quote to remove the part: “you have to kill a polar bear“?

Typical Democrat.   Funny thing is sheeple around her probably don’t even notice it.  However, the comment is more than just flat out check-box racist, it’s elitist.   Look at it again:  ….”where are you going to get people to work to clean our hotel rooms or do our landscaping“…

Shouldn’t that be ‘where are “we”‘?  Oh, wait, I get it this is a divisional message.  Me worker – Me service you.   Then you have the: “our hotel rooms” – “our landscaping” ?   “Our”?

Limo-liberal x eleventy !

(Via Washington Free Beacon) Florida Democratic congressional candidate Alex Sink said immigration reform was important at a Tuesday debate because, without it, it would be difficult for Florida employers to find people to clean hotel rooms and do landscaping.

“Immigration reform is important in our country,” she said. “We have a lot of employers over on the beaches that rely upon workers and especially in this high-growth environment, where are you going to get people to work to clean our hotel rooms or do our landscaping? We don’t need to put those employers in a position of hiring undocumented and illegal workers.”

Because a Democrat Job Program starts on the plantation.  You’re latino, oh, ok you’re a maid or a lawn guy.

Just imagine the media if a Republican had said this.   Nuf’ said
