Washington DC (Ammoland.com) —  In the final push toward the Senate gun control vote on April 17 2013, Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) admitted Democrats were flying Newtown families into DC to break a Republican filibuster–he also admitted that those families did not know they were going to be used for that purpose until the plane carrying them was already in the air.

The families thought they were coming to DC to oppose “high capacity” magazines.  But according to The New York Times, once the families were in the air aboard Air Force One, Murphy let them know they would used “to get a vote on a vote.”

Here’s how Murphy put it: (more…)

Today, June 25th, is DAY #12 (of 3rd week) State of Florida V. George Zimmerman case. An explosive first day of opening statements and witnesses took place yesterday.

[yesterday] saw the completion of opening statements and the launch of the State’s case, with four of the State’s witnesses being brought to the stand. In a nutshell, I thought the defense did a far superior job in cross-examination than the State did on direct, with it’s own witnesses, which does not bode well for the State’s prospects in this case.

… even within the black community of Sanford.   Wow, what a staggering turn-a-round.   The NAACP event, which was WIDELY publicized by the ever helpful media, was a MASSIVE Thud.   Less than 200 people showed up at the Allen Chapel AME Church.

No Al Sharpton? No Ben Jealous?  No Jesse Jackson?

This is HUGE news.   Of course the NAACP goes in full spin control mode and proclaims they are not going to protest at the courthouse, because no-one should tell them where they can protest.   Which actually means, we can’t get enough people to show up so we’ll make some pathetic excuse to avoid the reality.   I was wondering why the media was not showing the outside of the courthouse.  Makes sense now.  No wonder the Scheme Team is distraught.  Here is the story from an NAACP friendly, white-apologist, local media outlet.

SANFORD — As the first day of the George Zimmerman trial comes to a close, supporters of Trayvon Martin and his family joined together not far from the courthouse to remember the teen.

Nearly 200 members of Seminole County’s NAACP spent the night of opening statements not in protest zones or in rallies but rather in prayer at the Allen Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Sanford. (more…)

Benjamin Crump on AC360 last night.  Anderson Cooper asks him a question about “Dee Dee” (whom everyone assumes is witness #8) and his involvement in finding her – Watch Crump strategically parse words to deflect the “media evidence” onto the phone records.

Dee Dee  (16 year old, hospitalized, minor child, with extremely concerned parents) becomes known as a phone number.   A phone number is not a person.

Why?

Because then the owner of the phone number, whoever she is selected to be, becomes Dee Dee. (more…)

SEN. TED CRUZ (R-TX): We have seen this play before. It is reminiscent of Obamacare, yet another bill that we were told we’ve got to pass it to find out what’s in it. And, unfortunately, it seems, there are some republicans eager to go along with the democrats in the mad rush to pass this bill. In the 2007 immigration debate, close to 50 amendments were considered. In this debate, only nine have been debated. I introduced seven substantive amendments to improve this bill. Not a single one has been considered on the floor of the senate.

My point is very simple: what is the rush? Why are we proceeding gangbusters? And the only explanation that makes sense is there are many senators it seems in this body perhaps on both sides of the aisle that very much want a fig leaf. They want something that they can claim we are supporting border security when, in fact, this bill does not.

The first and most important difference is this amendment provides legalization first and then border security maybe at some time in the future. We have seen this before. In 1986 it was the same promise congress made, and we got the legalization, we got the amnesty and we never, ever, ever got border security. In contrast, the amendment I introduced reflects the will of the American people to have border security first and only then the possibility of legalization.  (read more)
