Amnesty Legislation – Mitch McConnell supports it,  The U.S. Chamber of Commerce supports it, The Republican Party Supports it, every single Democrat supports it, and you are going to get it whether you want it or not.
WASHINGTON DC – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said she spoke with Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday and asked when an overhaul to immigration laws could be considered in the House.
“He told me yes, we have to wait until next year,” Pelosi told reporters on Wednesday morning.
Democrats have been pushing House Republicans to hold a vote on a landmark immigration reform bill that was passed in June, or try to work on their own immigration legislation. But Republicans have been apprehensive, with the most conservative members opposed to anything that could provide a pathway to citizenship or legalization for undocumented immigrants.  (continue reading)

They have a literary agent?   Out of an abundance of caution, and under the advice of physicians, I will refrain from commentary.  FOR NOW.   However, I would like to know your thoughts on what their book should be titled.

(NEW YORK) The parents of Trayvon Martin met with publishers this week to shop a book about their son, the unarmed black teenager who was shot and killed in Florida in 2012.

According to two publishing executives who participated in meetings, Mr. Martin’s parents, Sybrina Fulton and Tracy Martin, said they intended to write a book that gives the full picture of their son while tracing their own experience of shock and sorrow.
The meetings were described as somber and moving by publishers who were present. Ms. Fulton and Mr. Martin were accompanied by Jan Miller, their Dallas-based literary agent. (more…)

Thamsanqa Jantjie, the fake sign language interpreter from the Mandela Funeral is reportedly -according to his own admissions- being treated for schizophrenia.
However an alarming investigative media report released today from South Africa also reveals he has faced serious criminal charges before including:  rape (1994), theft (1995), house-breaking (1997), malicious damage to property (1998), murder, attempted murder and kidnapping (2003) charges.

The case and court files around the Murder and kidnapping charges have mysteriously disappeared.    It appears that most of the other charges were dropped from prosecution around the defense that Mr. Thamsanqa Jantjie was mentally unfit to stand trial.
He was convicted of the theft charge and sentenced to three years in prison, however it is undetermined if he actually spent any time incarcerated.   On the rape charge he was acquitted – reason undetermined. (more…)

(Via Politifact)  It was a catchy political pitch and a chance to calm nerves about his dramatic and complicated plan to bring historic change to America’s health insurance system.

“If you like your health care plan, you can keep it,” President Barack Obama said — many times — of his landmark new law.
But the promise was impossible to keep.
So this fall, as cancellation letters were going out to approximately 4 million Americans, the public realized Obama’s breezy assurances were wrong. (more…)

Counterrevolutionaries’ will be punished.  Get out of line and you’ll be chummy with the fishes…

WASHINGTON DC – The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services told contractors not to cooperate with Congress’s efforts to investigate work related to the Obamacare website, a top Republican lawmaker said.
The agency informed Creative Computing Solutions Inc. on Dec. 6 that it isn’t authorized to disclose security testing information and other details to third parties, according to a letter today from Representative Darrell Issa to Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.
The department may have sent similar letters to other contractors working on the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, wrote Issa, a California Republican and chairman of the House oversight committee. (more…)

Delicious news – President Obama is hiring John “Damn Skippy” Podesta to join his inner circle and advisors.  Podesta was for Bill Clinton what Denis “The Fixer” McDonough is to President Obama.

Now both “Skippy” and “Fixer” are part of the Obama circle with Valerie Jarrett still looming.   That is a highly volatile mix.   Explosive and unstable in the extreme.
However, it makes sense against the backdrop of a Hillary run in 2016 because Team Clinton needs to have their interests represented quickly. (more…)

Funny, I don’t remember President Obama, Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid saying if we wanted to keep our doctors we were going to have to just “pay more” for them. Well, that is, back when they were ‘selling’ this Obamacare “pass-it-to-find-out-what’s-in-it” legislation.

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:

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…)
