The Grand Jury System Is Broken

 

Commentary Magazine   "The announcement of the grand jury’s decision in the Ferguson case could hardly have been worse handled. The prosecutor waited until well after nightfall to make the announcement and the governor, having mobilized the national guard to protect persons and property, kept them in their barracks while the rioters ran wild." 

 

Watch: CNN Reporter Blasts Jesse Jackson Over How Little Sense His Ferguson Rhetoric Makes

Western Journalism  "While Ferguson continues to burn following a grand jury declining to indict Darren Wilson, CNN reporter Don Lemon asked Jesse Jackson a serious question:

“But Reverend, with all due respect, if people need jobs in the community, why would you burn down a store or a place where you could possibly work?”

“If you want a job, if you want to be educated then you go look for a job, you go look for an education, what does it have to do with burning down your neighbor or burning down a store that someone needs for their livelihood?” Lemon continued.
“Someone needs the income from that store. That is their job. Someone needs that income to pay their bills. What does one have to do with the other?”

"The Rev. stalled but then sidestepped the question, saying that the disproportionate ratio of black/white police officers and firefighters led to an “irrational dimension of pain.”

Victor Davis Hanson on the past six years of Obama

Explaining Away Obama

 

"The only mystery about the last six years is how much lasting damage has been done to the American experiment, at home and abroad. Our federal agencies are now an alphabet soup of incompetence and corruption ^[1]. How does the IRS ever quite recover ^[2]? Will the Secret Service always be seen as veritable Keystone Cops? Is the GSA now a reckless party-time organization ^[3]? Is the EPA institutionalized as a rogue appendage of the radical green movement with a director who dabbles in online pseudonyms ^[4]? Do we accept that the Justice Department dispenses injustice or that the VA can be a lethal institution for our patriots? Is NASA now a Muslim outreach megaphone ^[5] as we hire Russia, the loser of the space race, to rocket us into orbit?

"Will anyone again ever believe a U.S. red line, step-over line, or deadline? Will Iran ever accept that it should not have a bomb or fear the consequences of trying to get one? Is Iraq (omnis effusus labor) a sort of rescued Eurydice that was abruptly lost on the trek up from the Underworld? Will Afghanistan become Saigon, 1975? How could Putin ever again be worried about offending a U.S. president, or could China or North Korea? Are we now always to be allies of Islamist Turkey and indifferent to its enemies like our once-allied Kurds, Cypriots, Greeks, and Israelis?" ...

The Forgotten Americans;  Obama’s coalition is held together only by his personal mythography.

 

 

... "For liberals for whom power is the true goal, California is seen as a success because there are no more conservatives like Ronald Reagan or Pete Wilson in statewide office. Over the last 30 years, unchecked illegal immigration, an influx of high-income urban liberal professionals to the Los Angeles and San Francisco Bay areas, and a steady exodus of the white middle and working classes explain why this liberal blue state has the largest number of both poor and wealthy people in the nation — and a shrinking conservative percentage of the electorate.

"But is the California progressive future applicable throughout the United States?... Full article.

Luis Gutirrez: The Immigration Demagogues

"Hoping for surrender on amnesty, Representative Luis Gutierrez demagogues and bullies."

  John Fund

 

"Al Sharpton, make some room to your left. The Reverend Sharpton now has a competitor for the title “demagogue in chief” of American politics. Representative Luis Gutierrez of Illinois, Congress’s most outspoken advocate for immigration amnesty, appeared on MSNBC after President Obama announced his executive actions and was asked by Rachel Maddow why Republicans were opposing Obama. Gutierrez’s reasoned response was: “If you want to make it about people from Latin America, if you want to use xenophobia, if you want to use bigotry and hatred and [the president], then you want to mix up the facts.”

 

Gutierrez has followed up sound-bite missiles like that with something akin to a victory lap through America’s urban areas. He tells immigrants it is “my responsibility, now that [Obama] has done the executive action, to sign up as many people as possible.” That means getting them to pre-register for the time next year when applications will be available for what is likely to lead to amnesty.
