It’s not surprising.  It’s crap like this MSNBC/Pravda propaganda which infects the minds of Millennials, Twenty-somethings, and unfortunately youth currently in education.
It’s not surprising – but it’s sickening.   Really sickening.    The sad reality is – in their thirst to mold an agenda into reporting they miss a great opportunity to discuss real principles of freedom.   Then again, freedom doesn’t fit within a leftist-minded definition of liberty.
For the institutional left it’s always a mantra: freedom “from” – instead of freedom “of“.
When they use “from” they get to play the victim card and define the acceptable conduct of others.  If the left was forced to affirm freedom “of” they would actually have to drop their hypocritical ideology and accept the very tenet of liberty.
…I digress, here’s MSNBC:

I doubt we will see the update to the story mentioned in the mainstream media the same way they jumped full bore to tell it when they thought it was true….
NEW JERSEY – A New Jersey waitress who raked in thousands in donations after claiming a couple didn’t tip her because she’s gay was fired from her job on Saturday.
Dayna Morales, 22, was finally canned from Gallop Asian Bistro in Bridgewater — nearly a month after she made national headlines over what’s likely a hoax.
The restaurant announced her termination on Facebook Saturday shortly after it was revealed she was returning donations from supporters across the world.
“In light of … recent events, both Ms. Morales and Gallop Asian Bistro have made a joint decision that Ms. Morales will no longer continue her employment at our restaurant,” the eatery wrote. “We wish her well in the future.” (more…)

Two Memphis 15-year olds, Derek Cunningham and Corey Sandifer, will be tried as adults for the brutal murder of J. P. Shelley; a General contractor in Tennessee.

The victim, Mr. Shelley, was a father of two, and a general contractor who was at work when two teens robbed him at gunpoint.
According to police investigative reports Mr. Shelley complied with every request they made – yet they shot him in the chest anyway. The circumstances around the shooting point to a specific intent to murder and not just a random robbery, but that consideration is highly uncomfortable for the media to report.

Looks like California is intent on driving people to ObamaCare whether they want it or not.   “Covered CA”  gives insurance agents contact information for thousands of people who checked out the website.   All Your Personals Are Belong To Us !
CALIFORNIA – Raising concerns about consumer privacy, California’s health exchange has given insurance agents the names and contact information for tens of thousands of people who went online to check out coverage but didn’t ask to be contacted.
The Covered California exchange said it started handing out this consumer information this week as part of a pilot program to help people enroll ahead of a Dec. 23 deadline to have health insurance in place by Jan. 1.
State officials said they are only trying to help potential customers find insurance and sign up in time. But some insurance brokers and consumers who were contacted said they were astonished by the state’s move. (more…)

Update:  Alas, we were wrong – It appears President Obama did actually recognize Pearl Harbor Day – On his FaceBook Page, with… well, what else,… a picture of President Barack Obama of course – Duh

(Via WSJ)  President Obama has found someone to blame for the Affordable Care Act’s rolling failures besides Republicans. ObamaCare is the government’s fault, not his.
On Thursday, Mr. Obama dropped by American University for a heart to heart with Chris Matthews, and the MSNBC host wondered who in the executive branch is responsible for the botched health-care rollout. Mr. Obama listed a few impersonal culprits including “cynicism,” “Washington gridlock” and “the management of government,” but he then drifted into another classic. (more…)

Last month in Lunenburg Massachusetts a bi-racial family claimed they were victims of racist attacks against their son.    The story gained massive media attention and was highlighted on CNN with Anderson Cooper’s AC360 show.
The claim (outlined in this video) was made against the backdrop of a white mother and black father claiming their bi-racial son was discriminated against on his football team and subjected to racist epithets.  To boost their claim they pointed to graffiti being spray painted on the side of their home, and they accused the football team of doing it.   The team coach took the accusation seriously and cancelled all football games until the suspect could be identified and arrested.

By now almost everyone is aware of the “exclusive” MSNBC/Chris Matthews interview with President Obama on Thursday.

However, many may not know the venue,  American University’s Greenberg Theatre, was previously booked by a 7 and 8-year-old dance troupe, Ballet Petite, to present their Christmas Nutcracker Ballet under a $25,000 contract.   A contract the university cancelled/dismissed without any consideration.  The university just told the troupe and the parents, “tough”.
…Because when it comes to exclusive propaganda no previous commitments are bold enough to break the demands of the sycophants.
(Via Washington Post)  The fight for Christmas took a hit this week when politics bigfooted  a troupe of adorable little ballet dancers performing “The  Nutcracker.”
MSNBC’s Chris Matthews is scheduled to interview  President Obama on Thursday night at American University as part of the  “Hardball College Tour.” MSNBC approached AU to host the chat, and  officials jumped at the chance for a free, hour-long commercial for the  university and its students.
But the interview, announced Tuesday morning, abruptly kicked the  Ballet Petite’s rehearsals of ”The Nutcracker” out of AU’s Greenberg  Theatre. That didn’t sit well with the ballet school’s staff, teachers  and parents who have been preparing for the performance for months. (more…)

Expect to see a celebration of communism take place at the National Cathedral in Washington DC!

Apartheid, as a political structure, was wrong.  Oppression is always wrong.  It is antithetical to Freedom.   However, as much as Apartheid was antithetical to freedom of the majority – so to is Mob Democracy antithetical to freedom of the minority.

NEVER LET A GOOD CRISIS GO TO WASTE:   The left needs a boost in the U.S.   Their progressive ideological systems, and subsequent sales pitches, are fraying under the now visible weight of consequence – most notably with Obamacare.
Expect to see a significant attempt to *use* the death of Nelson Mandela to pump up the associated progressive causes; the Che Guevara of Africa.
The claims of victimization, inherent in the ideological goals of the progressive left, need emotional boost to maintain their disconnect from the sunlight of actual and truthful consequence.     Nelson Mandela’s death presents an opportunity to return to the use of emotionally connected Cultural Marxism to advance their cause.
It will be large, it will be massive, it will be substantial – and it will take place using the full weight of the progressive left, the professional grievance industry, labor unions, socialists, communists, marxists and all forms of radical left-wing ideology. (more…)

More on this entire interview later, but just listen to the salutation:  “loyalists to you”
