UPDATED: Some press can do professional journalism if they want to: George Zimmerman- Prelude to a shooting

Zimmerman

Reuters  "Zimmerman's maternal grandmother, Cristina, who had lived with the Zimmermans since 1978, worked as a babysitter for years during Zimmerman's childhood. For several years she cared for two African-American girls who ate their meals at the Zimmerman house and went back and forth to school each day with the Zimmerman children.

" "They were part of the household for years, until they were old enough to be on their own," Post said."

Zimmerman

....

"In several of the incidents, witnesses identified the suspects to police as young black men. Twin Lakes is about 50 percent white, with an African-American and Hispanic population of about 20 percent each, roughly similar to the surrounding city of Sanford, according to U.S. Census data.

"One morning in July 2011, a black teenager walked up to Zimmerman's front porch and stole a bicycle, neighbors told Reuters. A police report was taken, though the bicycle was not recovered.

"But it was the August incursion into the home of Olivia Bertalan that really troubled the neighborhood, particularly Zimmerman. Shellie was home most days, taking online courses towards certification as a registered nurse.

"On August 3, Bertalan was at home with her infant son while her husband, Michael, was at work. She watched from a downstairs window, she said, as two black men repeatedly rang her doorbell and then entered through a sliding door at the back of the house..." 

The George Zimmerman narrative just got even tougher to maintain

“Let’s talk about the elephant in the room. I’m black, OK?” the woman said, declining to be identified because she anticipated backlash due to her race. She leaned in to look a reporter directly in the eyes. “There were black boys robbing houses in this neighborhood,” she said. “That’s why George was suspicious of Trayvon Martin.”

"Guess she’s a racist too.

...."Who else has to be hurt over this? How much more blood has to be shed? When are we going to stop listening to guys who pay the bills with race-baiting?

"What the hell is wrong with everybody?"

Attacker Tells Cops He Mugged and Robbed “White Boy” Because He Was Angry Over Trayvon Martin Case

"Hayes was charged with committing a hate crime Wednesday, as well as attempted robbery and aggravated battery. 

"The boy, who is also black, was charged with attempted robbery, the Tribune said.

"Hayes said he and his partner grabbed the man from behind and hit him several times, then grabbed a tree branch and said, “Empty your pockets, white boy,” FOX Chicago reported.

"The pair then threw the man to the ground and hit him in the head several more times before taking off."

Big Journalism reports the press has blood on it's hands  "My guess is that if Hayes is telling the truth about his sinister motives, he's been watching too much CNN, MSNBC, NBC, and ABC. After all, those are the media outlets guilty, in some cases, of outright racial fabrication in their zeal to aid Barack Obama's re-election campaign by falsely attributing racism to Mr. Zimmerman's motives."

"The bottom line is that if Hayes' professed motive for attacking another man is based on lies told over and over and over again by Obama's Media Palace Guards."

Thank you, Al Sharpton. Thank you, Jesse Jackson. Thank you national race-baiters.

One Cool Celebrity President appears in Republican ads

Via Bully Pulpit  Celebrity Obama Crushed By Karl Rove Ad

Operation Hot Mic:

President Reagan lectures Obama on socialism

Don't you prefer your heard-earned dollars go to American industry rather than to this government?

Forbes: EPA Official Not Only Touted 'Crucifying' Oil Companies, He Tried It  "The former professor at Southern Methodist University was appointed by President Obama in November 2009."...."Texas Monthly called him one of the 25 most powerful Texans, while the Houston Chronicle said he’s “the most feared environmentalist in the state.” "
...." In recent months a federal judge slapped the EPA, decreeing that the agency was required to actually do some scientific investigation of wells before penalizing the companies that drilled them. Finally in March the EPA withdrew its emergency order and a federal court dismissed the EPA’s case."
...".He ought to resign as well. His comments in the video are proof that facts and science don’t matter to him, that he’s already made up his mind that the industry he has regulatory power over is evil. When you lose faith in the impartiality of regulators every action they take is tainted. He’s the boy who cried wolf."
(Emphasis happily added)


Rick Moran: EPA official compares enforcement to crucifixions  "Spurious enforcement action just to intimidate the industry? That's what this goon seems to be saying. More than proving the EPA's war on fossile fuels, the video shows the arrogance of power little men like this petty bureaucrat exhibit when given responsibility far above their abilities or temperament."

Heritage: Armendariz’s comments, Inhofe said, “give us a rare glimpse of the Obama administration’s true agenda.”  " “It’s one thing to create regulatory certainty and fine or punish a company for breaking the law,” noted Heritage’s Nick Loris in reaction to the video, “but it’s another to target a specific industry and create a regulatory stranglehold on America’s access to affordable and reliable energy.” "


Speaking of abuse of power: Bloomberg; High Court Skeptical of Obama’s Use of Power as Campaign Starts  " “What does sovereignty mean if it does not include the ability to defend your borders?” Justice Antonin Scalia said during the 80-minute session, which ran 20 minutes beyond its scheduled time."


Collins Report: Fresh out of excuses, Int. Sec. Salazar and the media try to invent some new gas price “truths”  "Feeding his dimwitted audience more of what they want to write and say,  Salazar then babbled on about green energy and “staying the course” as the best energy policy. No one  in the supine media questioned why “staying” a course that has given us European type high gas prices isn’t lunacy,  but Salazar knew the media would never be impolitic enough to point that out." 

If Romney's Mormonism Is Fair Game, So Is The Rev. Jeremiah Wright

Larry Elder  "When Obama told Wright of his assistant's plans, Wright acknowledged that he tried to talk her out of moving. Why? Wright said that the boy "won't have a clue about where, or who, he is." Astonishing.

"Wright said this to a biracial man, the product of a black man and a white woman? Wright said that the assistant's son won't know "who he is"? Didn't Obama's mom send a young Barack back to Hawaii to live with his white grandparents in order to get a premium education at the finest prep school in the state?
"All Wright's poor, single mother/assistant wanted was a safer neighborhood where her son would be able to join a band and wear a uniform, an opportunity not afforded at his urban school. Did Obama get up and leave after Wright outed himself as an anti-white racist who did not want the best for the son of his assistant? No. Obama joined his church."

...."But when Obama instinctively sides with the black professor versus a white Cambridge cop doing his job; when Obama injects himself in the Trayvon Martin case, saying, "If I had had a son, he'd look like Trayvon"; when Obama falsely asserts that blacks and whites "receive very different sentences ... for the same crime," one can reasonably ask to what degree is Obama's worldview colored and shaped by Jeremiah Wright -- his angry, hostile anti-Semitic pastor of more than 20 years." Via Lucianne


Larry O'Donnell Again Attacks Romney's Religion "Watch the "progressive" O'Donnell's intolerance on display. Think he's ever treat[ed] the religion of, say, a Muslim candidate in such demeaning terms?" Well, after all it is MSNBC, often promoted on the old "Law and Order" series.


Fox and Friends Examines Rev. Wright ‘Re-emergence,’ ‘Hate-Filled Easter Sermon’ "The Fox & Friends panel then played a clip of Republican strategist Dick Morris who told Sean Hannity last night on Hannity that he “did not believe it was a total coincidence” that Rev. Wright has resurfaced at this particular moment in the 2012 campaign.

“I think that what may be happening here is that there may be a deliberate, orchestrated effort by the Obama White House to promote racial division,” said Morris. He claimed such tensions would drive up African American turnout at the polls in November.

" “I don’t know about that,” said Carlson, sounding a skeptical note."
