This has all the keen indicators of a back-fire waiting to happen.   Great opportunity for 2nd Amendment supporters to show the majority voice….   The one thing you can always count on with Progs is their entrenched echo-chamber ideology keeping them isolated from the “real views” of Americans, See: ObamaCare.

How much you want to bet this idea gets scrapped before the end of next week.

WASHINGTON DC – Vice President Biden said he and President Obama will tour the country making the case for gun control laws – the centerpiece of which is a requirement that all gun buyers submit to a federal background check.

Biden, speaking to the U.S. Conference of Mayors, devoted the heart of his remarks to pushing the background check requirement twinned with pleas that state and federal governments share their information on prospective gun purchasers. (more…)

I didn’t watch the interview.  But UK Daily Mail has the whole story.

Right is right even if nobody does it, and wrong is wrong even if everybody does it…   🙁

(Daily Mail) Lance Armstrong finally came clean about his  years of doping in his first lengthy public interview since the governing  committees accused him of running the ‘sophisticated’ doping ring to secure his  world record titles.

‘I view this situation as one big lie that I  repeated a lot of times,’ he said in an televised interview with Oprah  Winfrey.

He admitted that he doped in some form for  each of his seven Tour de France victories, though he maintained that the last  time that he ‘crossed that line’ was in 2005.  (read more)

There is no reasonable doubt, Obama’s decision is a payback for McDonough’s unyeilding loyalty in handling both Fast and Furious and Benghazigate.

The picture of President Obama, Vice-President Biden, Chief of Staff Jack Lew, National Security Advisor(s) Denis McDonough and Tom Donilon, has drawn quite a bit of attention. Not from the main stream media – but from independent-minded research bloggers and seekers of truth.

The backstory that began the research is HERE, and the ultimate unraveling of the riddle behind what was actually taking place is HERE. But the issues that surround the team pictured are larger and even more consequential. (more…)

Details are again sketchy. The official U.S. media is avoiding this like the plague. Huffington post had an article with 6 victims. But, it appears the reality is far worse. Reuters reports 34 of the initial 41 hostages have been killed, and U.K. Daily Mail says up to 35 of the hostages killed.

Reports late last night from French Media were that the hostages had been outfitted with explosive, suicide type, bomb belts/vests.  Prayers for all the families of the victims. Here are a couple of latest reports. 

(Daily Mail)Two British workers were reported tonight to be among the dead following a botched Algerian military raid to free hostages at a desert gas plant.

Thirty hostages, including at least seven foreigners, were killed when Algerian forces stormed a BP desert gas plant seized by Islamist militants, an Algerian security source said. (more…)

Piers keeps going on the “Do you want a tank” issue…. ridiculous. Typical Prog. Who cares. Airplanes have been used to murder more people than “tanks”, and someone tell this doofus you can indeed still buy an airplane if you have enough money.

DUH !

Use this thread as an open thread just for Zimmerman Case stuff. A place to just dump, collect, or discuss general information about the Trayvon Martin VS George Zimmerman Case.

“The sensationalized, fact-deficient coverage of this case has achieved the
desired results. The networks got their ratings. The politicians got their
