"I Just Cancelled My Subscription To TIME Magazine"

American Glob  "I’m not just saying that.

"Last Christmas, I was given a subscription to TIME Magazine as a gift.

"I just called TIME and cancelled it.

"Because I saw this…"

"I’m done.

"I refuse to be called a woman hating racist by woman hating racists.

"You should too."

Media leftism destroys what's remained of it's honor

Thomas Lifson:  The Left is Losing the Media Wars  "The left is taking serious casualties in the Zimmerman affair. Two lefty media operatives lost their jobs, we learned late Friday afternoon. Heads are rolling in the wake of failed attempts to politicize the death of Trayvon Martin. At NBC, a producer has been fired*.  And now Media Matters senior analyst M.J. Rosenberg, having humiliated the organization, is leaving the Soros-funded media bully outfit."

*NBC's 'Rosemary Woods' defense of fired producer  "Tom Maguire points out that NBC is virtually forced to say that the editing was a "mistake" because to admit to a deliberate act would leave them open to legal issues -- like a fat, juicy defamation suit from Zimmerman."

EDITGATE: NBC'S NAMELESS SCAPEGOAT RAISES MORE QUESTIONS  "To think that this biased, irresponsible, race-baiter can now freely move about the cabin and get a job anywhere in the news business, free from public scrutiny, is a cover up.

"Moreover, if NBC won’t name the producer, how in the world are we supposed to know someone has actually been fired?

"But the biggest problem for NBC News is that a single unnamed sacrificial scapegoat doesn't begin to pay for the deliberate crime of throwing gasoline on a racial fire that was already raging."

'Fakegate': Climate Change Fanatics Wage War on Dissenters

By Nancy J. Thorner at  American Thinker  "Why would Dr. Peter Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute, a MacArthur Foundation Fellow, and chairman of an American Geophysical Union task force on "scientific ethics and integrity," break the law to engage in a smear campaign against a small think-tank called The Heartland Institute that resulted in "Fakegate"?"
...."An economist by training, Klaus made the following statement in 2011:

I'm convinced that after years of studying the phenomenon, global warming is not the real issue of temperature.  That is the issue of a new ideology or a new religion.  A religion or climate change or a religion of global warming.  This is a religion which tell us that the people are responsible for the current, very small increase in temperatures.  And they should be punished.

"In light of Heartland's worldwide recognition as a global warming/climate change skeptic of merit, it was only a matter of time before rage would ensue among climate alarmists to single out Heartland for discrediting and destruction."

Alan Caruba: Fakegate: The War on Science  "In the meantime, the mainstream media has swept Fakegate under the rug, says little of the vast implications of Climategate, and continues to pander to the EPA and other elements of the Obama administration despite the obvious fraud, waste and failure of its “Green” programs. 

"The Heartland Institute has already paid a big price for its efforts and needs donors to replace General Motors’ support. It needs your support. "

The Utter Desperation of Global Warmists  "Didn’t like the warmist’s bogus science? A former member of the Clinton administration, Joe Romm, defended a comment on his Climate Progress website that warned that a generation of brain-washed youth would see to it that skeptics would “be strangled in their beds.” 
...."Consider this, if they were in charge, anyone who voiced dissent from their global warming-climate change lies would be in concentration camps, undergoing “re-education”, being “treated” with mind-altering drugs, or dead."

All history-challenged members of the Western Left and their useful idiots on American campi and/or defecating on various public places should learn the following: 
Political abuse of psychiatry in the Soviet Union 

In the Soviet Union, systematic political abuse of psychiatry took place. Soviet psychiatric hospitals were used by the authorities as prisons in order to isolate hundreds or thousands of political prisoners from the rest of society, discredit their ideas, and break them physically and mentally. This method was also employed against religious prisoners and most especially against well-educated former atheists who adopted a religion. In such cases their religious faith was determined to be a form of mental illness that needed to be cured. Formerly highly classified extant documents from “Special file” of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union published after the dissolution of the Soviet Union demonstrate that the authorities of the country quite consciously used psychiatry as a tool to suppress dissent.   Wikipedia

So this is a considered tool of leftists.

"Good" Friday: The Opinion of Thieves

Faith Readers  "He listened only to Jesus. He tuned out the pain, the suffering and all that was going on and in that public place he found himself alone with Jesus and he said, "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom." There were no words of doubt. Now he knew that Jesus was about to receive a kingdom that few understood and he wanted with everything in him to be a part of it. Jesus responded, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise." So much could be said about this. But for now I only want to ask you, "What is your opinion?" "

AMAZING LOVE

He is risen, INDEED!    In the early Church, when one Christian would greet another, often he would say: "He is risen."  

And the other would respond, "He is risen, indeed!"

....

Finally, René López observes that Christianity itself would have died, along with its Founder, if it all ended at the cross: "Christianity would have died if Christ had not risen from the dead. There's no possible way to explain the growth of the church....That in itself must be answered by the critics today."

 He is risen. He is risen, indeed!

The Origins of Communism in California

Noisy Room  "Many lament what California has become and, despite the beauty of this State, people and businesses are leaving as fast as they can. On the other hand, Communists like Van Jonesand the Union leaders who control this State enjoy calling California their “home” while they live in the lap of luxury courtesy of people like George Soros and Barack Obama(through our tax dollars, of course).

"Here is Communist California today…"

"So, as you can see, the communists and the union members intermingled as the march progressed.  In case you were wondering what SEIU was saying during all of this, there is a video of SEIU chanting: “Legalization or REVOLUTION!” Clear enough?"

Coming Soon to Obama's America

Neal Boortz   "What do you get when you combine progressive global warming policies with progressive social medicine policies … this story from the UK! 

 "An elderly woman has been told that she must find a new doctor.  Her current doctor is one mile from her house and she has been going there for 30 years.  Why was she told she needed to find a new doctor?  Because the government is concerned that her two-mile round trips are making her “carbon footprint” too large." 

Notice that many of these silly rules are from the UK. They are on the cutting edge of Western socialism and offer a good look at where America is headed.

Stupid EPA Regulations   "The list of stupid EPA regulations is endless. Utilizing favorable court decisions that have proved elastic for their purposes, the EPA is seeking to exercise control over nearly every facet of American industry."

The legacy of Zimmerman/ Martin (Updated)

Man, 78, recounts assault by 6 youths in E. Toledo

"The boy, again, allegedly told his friends to "take him down.""

"At one point, the victim recalled being lifted from the ground so one of the boys could "drop-kick" him in the chest.

"One boy, he said, put his foot on the back of the victim's neck, with another shouting, "Kill him."

"While Mr. Watts was down the boys kicked him, over and over, shouting, "[Get] that white [man]. This is for Trayvon ... Trayvon lives, white [man]. Kill that white [man]," according to a police report.

"The boys fled when a man shouted at them, according to the report."

NBC Stonewalls On ‘Zimmerman Edit’ Probe    "Given how central these 911 calls are to this story, it is impossible to believe that these staffers "who have been working on the Trayvon Martin story for several weeks," would not have known the 911 transcript word for word.

"Which puts the lie to their claim that nobody at NBC noticed the "mistake" at the time it aired.

"No, they are only "in shock" that anyone noticed and called them on it. That isn’t supposed to happen. Which is why they are so desperate to get back their monopoly on the news.


Update: Breaking: NBC Fires Producer Who Created False Zimmerman Audio

While NBC has taken a good first step toward rectifying the situation, until the network releases the name of the person and explains its theory that the edit was not deliberate, its credibility is still under question.

From Weasel Zippers: Obama Campaign Scrubs Website of Alarmist Videos Targeting Black Voters…

"The Daily Caller has a compilation of the vids that were removed including the one that invokes Saint Trayvon."

In one video that the campaign yanked from the “African-Americans for Obama” section of its website Tuesday, actress Tatyana Ali seemed to predict that a second Obama term would bring a host of benefits to African-Americans once the president no longer had to concern himself with campaigning.“What really excites me … is that a U.S. president has only two terms,” a laughing Ali said in the footage that the Obama campaign scrubbed from its website Tuesday. “In the second term, ‘it’s on,’ because we don’t have to worry about re-election.”

 American Glob: Obama’s Ability To Give An Original Speech Still Evolving
"Do you ever get the feeling that every time Obama speaks David Axelrod is crouching behind him pulling a plastic ring attached to a cord somewhere on Obama’s body?"

...."You know, if Obama was a Republican all of America would be laughing too because this video would be on all the American late night comedy shows. Instead of a YouTube clip from a Danish TV show"

Hot Air has this on the subject:  Paul Ryan told ABC yesterday when they asked him about O’s latest smear job that he’s “become accustomed to this kind of rhetoric from the president,” but wait until you see this. He didn’t know the half of it.


More examples of majestic oratory by this great communicator:
"Here’s one from January 2012 which I referred to as Obama the Broken Record."
Just words? "Here’s a golden oldie from 2008 where Obama used a speech by MA Governor Deval Patrick word for word."

Alana Goodman: Obama Grandstands About the Masters   "The media is now running out to track down a Republican who will defend the Augusta National policy and serve as a useful foil for Obama’s completely uncontroversial stance on the subject.

Harry Reid's dilemma  "American broadcasting this week featured the worst example of hateful religious bigotry broadcast to a national audience since the days of Father Coughlin's antisemitic rants.  MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell, a former Democrat congressional staffer, launched an astonishing attack of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints, the religion of Mitt Romney."


Obama Labor Dept. glorifies Sharpton, Jackson in protest-preaching poster  

"The photo depicts Solis acting as an emissary of the Obama administration protesting against Alabama’s strict new law combating illegal immigration. Solis has her arms locked with Sharpton, and Jackson is a few feet away. The poster also carries a message for federal government employees — who are traditionally expected to be apolitical in the performance of their duties."

This is the picture that Hilda Solis wants everyone at the Labor Department to see: 

"On her right arm is SEIU exec R. Eliseo Medina.  On her left is, of course, MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton.  And that’s Jesse Jackson on the other side of Delores Huerta and AFL-CIO Executive Vice President Arlene Holt Baker. The experience clearly affected Secretary Solis. The Daily Caller reports that images from the event have now been turned into a poster that will hang in elevators at the Labor Department:"...

There will be that double standard applied no matter who it is."
