UPDATED 9:00 Police Commissioner "Let me stress there is no suspect" -Marathon Bombing Story

Yid With Lid  "The explosions took place exactly 4 hours after the secondary runners started the race, so if it was a terrorist attack it was targeted to the regular joe-type runners."

White House believes deadly Boston Marathon bombing act of terror

In addition to the deaths, some 80 people were injured – including up to 10 with amputated limbs. Authorities were guarding a person of interest at a local hospital, according to a New York Post report confirmed by Fox News. The person, who sources said was 20 years old, had severe burns, but authorities had not determined whether the person was a victim or a perpetrator. Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis said during a press conference that no suspect is in custody.

...."Somebody's leg flew by my head," a spectator, who gave his name as John Ross, told the Boston Herald. “I gave my belt to stop the blood.” 

Boston Marathon Explosions

Mr. Obama, please give us something solid in the way of consequences for those who did this. No "let me be clear" or "will be brought to justice" clichés that the world laughs at.
Accusations against right-wingers or TEA Partiers will begin in three...two...one...



Washington Free Beacon 
"Two explosions fired in rapid succession at the finish line of the Boston Marathon Monday afternoon around 2:45 p.m., seriously injuring at least dozens of people, according to area reports.
"Boston Police have confirmed that 23 are injured and two are dead.
Boston Marathon officials said in a statement posted to the official Facebook and Twitter accounts that the explosions were caused by bombs. Law enforcement officials have not confirmed that the explosions were caused by bombs."

Smearing Mitch McConnell

Liberals fire and miss their top Senate target   "Last week, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, who is up for reelection in 2014, was the target of what appears to be a coordinated liberal smear campaign. Such partisan teamwork is certainly not unprecedented or exclusive to the Left. However, the recent activity warrants some additional scrutiny of the various groups involved."

Evil people around the world have to be laughting at the US. If they only knew that Obama does not bluff.

Remember that Iran is watching all this and making plans with our actions in mind.
But after seeing  the liberal's joy at Ms. Thatcher's death, I see signs that a strong stand by the US and our allies would be met with rioting nationwide by the left.
What was once called evil is now good and good has become evil.

John Kerry’s Words Don’t Match Obama Administration Actions on North Korea  "Rather than standing up to blatant belligerence, the Obama Administration has stepped back. And the reason for the capitulation? As Secretary Kerry explains, “Let’s face it. Everyone here knows this, we’ve got enough problems to deal with around the world.” One can only imagine the glee in Pyongyang and the trepidation in Seoul for the U.S. to prioritize other regions over defending our Korean ally."

The 5 Craziest Children's Cartoons from North Korea  "No matter where in the world a child is raised, odds are cartoons feature heavily in their upbringing. North Korean kids are no exception...." The US always being the bad guys, just as we are on colleges campii.

Dennis Rodman: I’m going back to North Korea  “He just wants to be loved. He just wants to sit down and talk. That’s all.”

Obama Calls for End to North Korean Rhetoric  "...President Barack Obama said, “We both agreed that now’s the time for North Korea to end the kind of belligerent approach that they’ve been taking. And to try to lower temperatures. Nobody wants to see a conflict on the Korean Peninsula.”"

 

World View: John Kerry Says North Korea's Rhetoric Is 'Unacceptable'  "The U.S. has been calling North Korea's actions and rhetoric "unacceptable" for years, so much so that saying it again is just a joke. So, why would a missile test be a "huge mistake"? Does anyone really believe that the North Koreans care if they're "further isolated"? "

 

North Korea: The bigger picture  "Perhaps it’s because of the constant coverage, or at least the perspective provided by the corporate media, that people aren’t understanding that we are currently engaged in World War III. It’s just that the actual shooting between the global super powers simply hasn’t started yet."

Iran’s North Korean Future

"A Tehran armed with nukes can play Pyongyang’s game — but with no Beijing to keep it in check."

Victor Davis Hanson   "In contrast, those who favor containment of a nuclear Iran do not quite know how the theocracy could be deterred — or how either Israel or the regional Sunni Arab regimes will react to such a powerful and unpredictable neighbor.
....
"A nuclear Iran would worry about neither a billion-person nuclear existential enemy nearby such as India, nor a billion-person patron such as China that would establish redlines to its periodic madness. Instead, Tehran would be free to do and say what it pleased. And its nuclear status would become a force multiplier to its enormous oil wealth and self-acclaimed world leadership of Shiite Muslims.
"If North Korea has been a danger, then a bigger, richer, and undeterred nuclear Iran would be a nightmare."

 

NYT in March and Daily Beast on Friday Call Gosnell's Born-Alive Victims 'Fetuses'

Viable fetus and womb

Newsbusters  "In the paper's only story relating to the trial of late-term abortionist Kermit Gosnell on March 19 on Page A17, Jon Hurdle at the New York Times opened by telling readers that "In opening statements in court on Monday, prosecutors charged that a doctor who operated a women’s health clinic here killed seven viable fetuses ..." -- not already-born infants."
....
"Even more troubling than the lack of coverage of the Gosnell trial is the apparent indication that there are more than a few members of the press, including at least one at a publication which believes itself to be the standard of journalism, who won't recognize a just-born infant for what it is: a baby."

More About AP's Tags: Gosnell's Serial Murder Trial Is About 'Abortion Controversy' and 'Reproductive Rights'
" "Abortion controversy" has been applied to 10 of the 14 stories about Gosnell, with no apparent logic as to why it was or wasn't used.
"The "reproductive rights" tag has been used in the following Gosnell "Big Story" articles:"    Examples given:

Why Aren’t More People Repelled by the Left?

Powerline  "Here is something I don’t understand: liberals are often revealed as vile, vulgar hatemongers–not all of them, of course, but far too many–yet they never seem to pay a penalty at the polls. Why is that?
"Margaret Thatcher’s death has been the latest occasion for the Left to show its true stripes. All across the U.K., there have been demonstrations–vulgar at best, and violent at worst. In Bristol, lefties celebrating a Thatcher “death street party” started fires, destroyed property and battled police:"

....
"Here in the U.S., the last similar display from the Left was the Occupy Wall Street movement, but liberal violence and general hatefulness have a long and consistent history.....
"It is notable that violent leftists are never denounced by Democratic Party politicians. On the contrary, as we have seen most recently with Kathy Boudin, they find them well-paid jobs as professors when they can. ....nearly every communication that emanates from the Democratic Party is a hateful, over-the-top smear against Republicans."

Police say Wu then struck the officer several times in the face. The officer was treated at the scene.
"The video shows the officer, dressed in camouflage fatigues, confronting the man before being attacked."

TIP LINE FOR JOURNALISTS: Did Your Editor Spike Kermit Gosnell Coverage? Report It Here Anonymously

PJ Media  "In an immoral, unprofessional, bizarre — surely, several other negative descriptors are apt — display of unity, virtually the entire U.S. media industry save for those generally referred to as “conservative outlets” have instituted a blackout of the trial."

Infanticide — the crime that gave even Timothy McVeigh pause — is a left/right issue for your employer? 

 "The media behavior regarding the trial of monster Kermit Gosnell is a turning point: with all of conservative media’s complaints regarding the liberal bias of U.S. media, we never imagined this could happen. 

"We know there are journalists out there infuriated by their employer’s current behavior: The change must start with you.

 "We are looking for whistleblowers: if you have any information regarding why your employer is not covering the Gosnell trial, please submit it here. Your anonymity will be protected."





The Gosnell silence: Murder, abortion and the media "The sensational nature of this case alone justifies massive media coverage. The doctor ran a filthy, uninspected clinic for decades as state regulators looked the other way. He infected women with diseases by using unsterile equipment. Two of the women who came to him for abortions died. But Kermit Gosnell is not a household name for one reason: His crimes raise uncomfortable questions for supporters of unlimited abortion on demand."

The Blaze 

Not Obama’s Gettysburg Addresses

Legal Insurrection   "Will the media compare Obama’s speeches against the Illinois Born Alive Infant Protection Act to the Gettysburg Address, as it did for Obama’s Newtown speech?
"I think not. Certainly not after Kermit Gosnell.
"They were not Gettysburg Addresses.
"The ground in which the dead were buried was not hallowed.
"The dead were not honored.
"Nor resolved that they shall not have died in vain." 

 

What don’t you (or didn’t Obama) understand about killing a baby born alive?

I Went to Bed a Christian and Woke Up a … Terrorist?

Doug Giles  "Yes my brethren, your love for God and country has caused thou to be deemed a menace to our national progress at least as the Leftists’ deem progress. Congratulations.
....
"Indeed, according to “them” we must forget the fact that it’s been nutty Muslims that have terrorized us for the last couple of decades and that it’s been radical leftists that have aggressively eroded our constitutional liberties. Parts of our armed forces and police departments have been told to just white all that stuff out and believe that it’s guys like Chuck Norris who are the real hazard that our cops and our military need to be concerned about.
Mr. Giles gives us a checklist to determine if we are a terrorist that includes these items:

....If you recognize, appreciate and wish to pass on to the next generation America’s godly heritage – you might be a terrorist.
· If you like the Declaration of Independence, our Constitution and the Bill of Rights – you might be terrorist.
· If you have Jesus Take the Wheel on your iPod – you might be a terrorist.
· If as a single man, you have told a homely single lady that, “all you’re looking for is a godly woman and that you don't care that she’s not attractive." – you might be a terrorist.
· If you believe Jesus is Lord and not the state – you might be a terrorist.
· If you raise your kids to be productive, independent and righteous kids who love God and our country and not be narcissistic entitlement hookers – you might be a terrorist.....

Obamacare is Imploding

Alan Caruba

"The bad news for Democrats and worse news for Barack Obama is that, since it was signed into law on March 23, 2010, Americans have had three years to learn what a total socialist time bomb Obamacare is. If you wanted to destroy the nation’s economy, you could not have chosen a better way."
