Ann Coulter on Words with fiends
Human Events
"Whenever liberals are in a tight spot, they adopt the scorched-earth policy of argumentation. With no answer, they start demanding that you define words: What do you mean “liberal”? What do you mean “democracy”? What do you mean “patriotism”?
" 'They retreat from argument, burning the English language as they go."
....
"A 78-year-old woman is punched by a young black male for no reason, and the Times’ central point is: “Perp says it’s not a ‘game.’”
"Similarly, in Philadelphia magazine, Stephen Silver said of two recent knockout attacks in Philadelphia that he wasn’t counting either one as “confirmed cases of the Knockout Game” on the grounds that the puncher said he “was not participating in the Game.”
"Until the assailants admit they’re playing a game, liberals say the Knockout Game is a “hoax.”
....
"While we’re on the subject, I can’t think of a single instance in which someone has admitted to committing a “hate crime,” but liberals are always calling things “hate crimes.' ” Emphasis mine, TD
....
And lastly, is this point by Ms. Coulter I loved reading:
MSM Ignores 'Knockout' Game Radio talk show host Larry Elder: “The 'knockout game' – and the media underreporting of it – combines the breakdown of the family with the media's condescending determination to serve as a public relations bureau for blacks. The 'game' is a dare in which a young man – all the perps appear to be male people of color, mostly blacks – tries to literally knock out an innocent bystander with one blow. Both National Public Radio and The New York Times say these reports of the 'knockout game' being widespread are overblown and do not represent a trend. Really? … "From a distance, the media can spot some lone idiot holding up an offensive sign at a tea party rally. But when it comes to black perp/white victim crime, there is a very different attitude.”
Here is a feel-good story for you! Knockout Game Goes Right: Unlikely Target Gives Thug REALLY Ugly Beatdown
"When a would-be knockout game star and his accomplice run down a Vegas shopping mall to punch a random woman in the face, the attacker finds out quickly what happens if you pick on the wrong person.
"You wind up being humiliated on social media. The targeted woman doesn’t go down when the swing goes awry, and she begins waylaying on him. The boyfriend flies in with a Bruce Lee-style tiger knee to the face, and the rest is Internet history."
" 'They retreat from argument, burning the English language as they go."

But...“This incident does not suggest it would be related to any random incident like a ‘knockout’ type game,” he said, noting it “remains under investigation.”
Oh, well, as long as the knock-out gamers out there see this video.

A long flight back home for Barack? Just guessing. I don't know. I can't say.
American Thinker "Check out the pictures below. Did an irate Michelle make misbehaving Barry switch seats at Mandela's funeral?"

Experts snap at memorial selfies
"Nothing good can come of bringing an iPhone to a memorial service.
"That’s the consensus of etiquette experts who said Wednesday that President Barack Obama’s selfie at Nelson Mandela’s memorial was no time for a picture-perfect moment, but differed over whether it amounted to a serious protocol violation."
Obama and selfies; Did you think Rush Limbaugh wouldn't have an opinion? "The Biggest Selfie Boo-Boo Since Weiner"
The Sydney, Australia, Morning Herald covered the episode this way: "US President Barack Obama may have moved the masses attending Nelson Mandela’s memorial service with his stirring eulogy, but it was his grinning "selfie" with the Danish and British premiers that set social networks abuzz."
....
But keep in mind: "The event was a memorial service and not a funeral for Mandela, who died last week aged 95, and the mood was one of joy and hope as mourners sang, danced and chanted their way into the stadium."

(Above) Notice Michelle's body language; her knees are pointed away from Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt and Michelle's back is to her.
Another apology tour including some bowing?

Of Course: Photographer Who Took POTUS Selfie Photo Ashamed He Broke News “ 'That’s kind of a bummer.” Let’s translate that from MSM to English: I broke news — I’m a successful wire service photog! But I broke news that made Mr. Obama look bad. I’ll never hear the end of this from my peers standing around the Monsieur Coffee machine in the AFP break room in their Paris HQ. I am a failure of a photographer. I’ll never be stupid enough to break news again. Mon Dieu! Where did it all go wrong?"
If the above seems petty, it is because many of us remember this:
And we remember the total lack of grace Mr. Obama has returned to President Bush in the years since.
The Tunnel Dweller, writing from down where we can observe the character of today's Democrat party. This is most definitely NOT my father's or my Democrat Party (Except for shaking off it's Jim Crow roots).
UPDATED: When do we finally stop the harassment of little boys by school administrators?
Legal Insurrection "We need a K-12 Insurrection."
The "war on little boys in elementary schools continues unabated.
Little children are being punished with suspensions, expulsions, and permanent damage to school records based on standards of conduct carried into elementary schools from the adult world. Typically, but not exclusively, the insanity is directed at little boys for alleged violation of zero tolerance gun and sexual harassment policies."

"The Principal is defending the punishment:District superintendent Robin Gooldy told The Associated Press on Tuesday the boy was suspended because of a policy against unwanted touching."Something needs to be done about out of control school administrators."
“The focus needs to be on his behavior. We usually try to get the student to stop, but if it continues, we need to take action and it sometimes rises to the level of suspension,” he said.
He said officials have not heard from the girl’s parents, and no legal action is anticipated because it was only a violation of school policy.
