Jesse Jackson Slams Conservatives For Comparing Trayvon Martin To Slain Aussie Baseball Player Chris Lane…


Weasel Zippers   Quoting The Hill
"The Rev. Jesse Jackson said Thursday that conservatives are wrong to compare the Trayvon Martin case to the death of Chris Lane.
"During an interview on MSNBC, Jackson was asked whether he thinks that “some on the right are making a false equivalency” between Martin and Lane, a young white baseball player allegedly killed Friday by three black teenagers."
Just the kind of leading question someone on MSNBC would ask. Megyn Kelly or Greta Van Susteren would not have served up that cream puff to Jackson because that would not be their agenda.

On Hillary Clinton

Salon; Camille Paglia: “It remains baffling how anyone would think that Hillary Clinton is our party’s best chance”
"It remains baffling how anyone would think that Hillary Clinton (born the same year as me) is our party’s best chance. She has more sooty baggage than a 90-car freight train. And what exactly has she ever accomplished — beyond bullishly covering for her philandering husband? She’s certainly busy, busy and ever on the move — with the tunnel-vision workaholism of someone trying to blot out uncomfortable private thoughts."

The Hillary Hype  "My column today is on what great fun it will be if Joe Biden decides to run for president. 
...."I am increasingly convinced the Hillary inevitability talk is ridiculous (and I am at a loss as to why so many conservatives are fatalistic about a Clinton victory). As I’ve written a few times already, she’s a decidedly dull politician. Ask a normal person to watch Hillary Clinton give a speech or an interview and odds are they’ll respond, “What’s the big deal? She’s boring.”.... Jonah Goldberg

A possible far[ther]-left challenge to Hillary in 2016   "Howard Dean could easily emerge in 2016 as the far left alternative to Hillary Clinton for president in 2016."

How Hillary pulls the strings at NBC "Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters exposes the way Team Hillary is manipulating the NBC networks over the planned miniseries on her life. The planned offer of fealty turned into a disaster when Reince Priebus and the GOP stood up, cried foul and threw NBC out of contention to host 2016 presidential debates, along with CNN which planned a documentary."....

"The Clinton Machine is a marvel to behold. Stay tuned for the project to die with no Clinton fingerprints on it."

Report: NBC News Fears 'Retaliation From the Former First Lady' If Hillary Miniseries Airs   " 'It's a bit rich for Todd and Mitchell to cry foul now about their journalistic purity being contaminated by commercial and ideological considerations. As if the MSNBC lineup where Todd and Mitchell ply their trade every day is not shared with activist ideologues such as Al Sharpton and Ed Schultz.' "


 

Brit Hume: Case For Hillary Clinton "Being A Great Secretary Of State Is Exceedingly Weak"   " I think those examples you cited would add up to a case for her competence. They do not

add up to a case for greatness, after all, the groundwork on Burma had been done by the previous administration.....Has the reset with Russia, which she so famously introduced with the photo-op in Moscow with the reset button, has they lead to a new and more cooperative relationship? Is there a Clinton doctrine that we can identify that she has articulated and formed as secretary of state? Are there major treaties that she has undertaken and negotiated through to a successful conclusion? I think the answer to all those questions is that she has not."....

The Oklahoma shooter was raised by this mother.

Meet Brenda Edwards, Mother of Accused ‘Bored’ Teen Killer James Edwards  "She has three known aliases. As things stand now, her relationship with Oklahoma’s criminal justice system won’t end for several decades. Her multiple convictions include distribution of cocaine. She was in court in Duncan, OK, as recently as May 2010, when she was found to have violated her parole by obtaining prescription drugs by fraud. Her probation was revoked.
"If we’re going to blame a “culture” for James Edwards’ alleged part in Chris Lane’s murder, as some want to blame the so-called “gun culture,” shouldn’t the culture of recidivist criminality come under scrutiny?"

No mention of a father.

White House would consider Bradley/ Chelsea Manning pardon request

The Hill  "The White House said Wednesday that it would consider a clemency petition for Bradley Manning "like any other application" after the Army private was sentenced to 35 years in prison for leaking a cache of documents to WikiLeaks.  Video 
 
"There's a process for pardon applications or clemency applications, I believe they're called," White House spokesman Josh Earnest said. "And I'm not going to get ahead of that process. If there is an application that's filed by Mr. Manning or his attorneys, that application will be considered in that process like any other application."
"Manning's attorney said shortly after his sentencing that he would ask the White House for a pardon. He added that even if the president did not do so, Obama should commute Manning's sentence to time already served."
Obama, being a friend of Bill Ayres- who hates the US military- can be expected to show his true colors with a pardon of Manning on his last day as president.

" 'As I transition into this next phase of my life, I want everyone to know the real me," Manning said in the statement. "I am Chelsea Manning. I am a female. Given the way that I feel, and have felt since childhood, I want to begin hormone therapy as soon as possible. I hope that you will support me in this transition.' "  And pay for it as well.

From This ain't Hell, but you can see it from here: Oh, my bad, it’s CHELSEA Manning now. . . how could I have been so silly?
 ...."I have no doubt before long he’ll somehow turn into a rally cry for every transgendered person that has anything to do with the military.  I have no doubt that while all this is going on, he’ll send out “statements” which will reaffirm he’s the victim in all of this, and the evil nasty military won’t allow him to be self actualized." 

Arab Spring: Worst Soap Ever

Political Cartoons by Gary Varvel
Ann Coulter   "I didn't care for the "Arab Spring," but the "Arab Summer" is a blockbuster!

"Liberals' rosy predictions for Egypt's Islamic revolution didn't turn out as planned. Who could have guessed that howling mobs in Tahrir Square in 2011 would fail to produce a peaceful democracy?

Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak had supported U.S. policy, used his military to fight Muslim extremists and recognized Israel's right to exist. So naturally, Obama told him he had to go."....

5 of the Most Hysterical Liberal Overreactions To Criticism of Obama

  Townhall

"When George Bush was in office, liberals regularly compared him to Hitler, speculated that he was behind 9/11, fantasized about murdering him and generally talked about him like he was the Son of Satan. This was called "speaking the truth to power." Then Barack Obama came into office and ironically, dissent isn't so patriotic anymore. Suddenly these same people became angry, humorless scolds who believe that the President of United States is beyond criticism. Of course, the truth is that they haven't changed at all; they're just hypocrites. If you want to see how hypocritical and oversensitive to criticism they can be, here are five great examples."....

Judge Clears the Way for Sharia in Oklahoma!!

Craig Andresen  "Further proof that the America we used to know is NOT the American in we are living today.
"In the words of U.S. District Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange, a Bill Clinton, liberal apointee, “While the public has an interest in the will of the voters being carried out, the court finds that the public has a more profound and long-term interest in upholding an individual’s constitutional rights.”
"And with that, she STRUCK DOWN an Amendment to the Oklahoma Constitution banning courts from considering SHARIA LAW in making their decisions."....
....
"Remember…THIS judge is a U.S. DISTRICT JUDGE…FEDERAL…So this is NOT confined to just 1 STATE."
 

Australian baseball player in OK killed by 'bored' teens' Jesse Jackson update

Rick Moran at American Thinker  "Much has been made of the attention paid to this crime as opposed to the scrutiny given the Trayvon Martin case. Sorry, I don't see it. Even if there was a racial element to this crime, the circumstances that surrounded the Martin shooting are miles apart from the gunning down of Chris Lane. This is a tragedy where gangsta culture should be blamed, and not necessarily racial animus."
"Nobody would ever mistake him for Obama’s son."

...."Note the hashtags under the photo — they use both “Crip” and “cc,” which is a Crip affectation."....
James Edwards, 15, was treating the murder as a joke, District Attorney Jason Hicks told a hearing in the town of Duncan on Tuesday (Wednesday morning AEST).

Mr Hicks told the court that Edwards has previously been in contact with police, and that he had “an attitude of total disregard for law enforcement” when he was being charged over Lane’s death.

“He thinks it’s funny, and it’s all a joke,” Mr Hicks said.

"After President Obama waded into the Trayvon Martin shooting death and subsequent acquittal of George Zimmerman, critics of the president wonder whether he’ll also address the senseless killing of an Australian college student in Oklahoma last week.
"On Twitter, former Rep. Allen B. West, Florida Republican, hinted that there may be a racial double standard at play, given the lack of outrage from Mr. Obama and civil rights leaders.
“ 'Three black teens shoot white jogger. Who will [Mr. Obama] identify w/ this time?” Mr. West wrote."....

UPDATE:  Dem Strategist Blames Murder of Aussie Baseball Player By Three Black Teens On Oklahoma’s Gun Control Laws…
 
This following is a Facebook dialogue between the Tunnel Dweller and "FB" about the previous post concerning Sharpton and Jackson:
 
FB: What do Sharpton, Jackson and Obama have to do with this gang murder?
 
TDWhat did they have to do with Trayvon Martin?
 
FBWhat?? THis(sp) post is about a gang killing.
 
TDWhat if the ball player had shot the gangstas?
 
FBHe would be the murdering POS. Do you have a point?
 
TDThe race industry foments dissension when it suits their purposes; when the guilty party belong to the Sharpton constituency, there is no outrage. Jackson merely "frowns" on it with no condemnation, much as Maxine Waters "did not condone but did understand" the anger of the four who nearly killed Reginald Denny during the King riots in LA. Are you saying that no comment was necessary from Jackson/Sharpton? That there is no obligation on their part for moral leadership toward their people?  
 
TDIf a white group had murdered a young African-American in the same way, what people would you expect to see making a public denouncement?
 
FB: Come down off the ledge, son. Perhaps it's sunstroke.
End of conversation, I suppose.
