COMMON CORE LESSON PLAN PORTRAYS OBAMA AS MESSIAH TO THIRD GRADERS

Daily Insider

"At this point, Obama’s fanbase has shrunk to a small, fanatical group that persists in believing the lies he spouts. This wouldn’t be a problem except for the fact that this much of this small group is spread through very influential places.

"Everybody and their grandma knows that Common Core is a half-baked scheme to increase the government’s control over education, but new information shows that the plan goes even deeper than previously thought. It isn’t just meant to expand the already bloated bureaucracy running our schools: it’s meant to brainwash American kids into blindly following Obama." . . .

Hillary NOT Happy When Asked About Transcripts to Wall Street Luncheon Speeches

Legal Insurrection  "Hillary Clinton does not like being asked to release transcripts from her pricey paid Wall Street lunch speeches. Clinton was paid a whopping $675,000 for three speeches to Goldman Sachs.

"In an interview with the editorial boards of two Philadelphia-based newspapers, Clinton got nasty when asked if she would release her speech transcripts. True to form, she shifted to the matter of tax returns and bemoaned double standards rather than answering the question." . . .

Mr. Springsteen, is this a fight worth having? (Updated.)

"There’s no way to make everyone happy about transgender bathrooms and locker rooms. So the priority ought to be finding a way to keep everyone safe."

VIDEO: Sexual predators take advantage of transgender laws  "It may not have been intended, but it was predictable.  This video spells out case after case of sexual predators entering women's locker rooms and dressing rooms and other private places that are speedily becoming "unprivate," demanding to shower and change with them." . . .

. . . "So the laws that permit males to invade that space simply have to be stopped, and any law that has already been implemented must be repealed.

"Enough is enough."

Bruce Springsteen cancels NC concert citing anti-trans law  . . .North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory signed HB2 into law last month. It prevents municipalities from raising their own minimum wages and repeals any municipalities' nondiscrimination ordinances, replacing them with a statewide ordinance that doesn't protect individuals based on sexuality. 

"The most controversial portion of the bill focused on bathrooms. It requires people use the bathrooms matching the sex on a person's birth certificate, regardless of their gender identity, while in public buildings.

"Backlash has been rolling in ever since. Springsteen was scheduled to perform April 10 in Greensboro, and announced Friday he wouldn't perform because of the law." . . .

Michael Moore joins Springsteen in a N.C. boycott  "In a message posted to his Twitter account Tuesday, the 61-year-old liberal documentary filmmaker said that he has asked the distributor of his latest film, Where to Invade Next, to withhold the film from theaters in North Carolina due to the state’s “bigoted law against LGBTQ” people."

In the liberal search for causes, how many more letters will be added to "LGBTQ"?

Hollywood loves Springsteen's boycott.  There are, of course other issues beside bathroom use that might have merited discussion, but transgender rest rooms have been the spoiler.

World's largest private coal company declares bankruptcy

American Thinker  "The Obama administration's war on coal claimed its most significant victim as Peabody Coal, the largest private coal company in the world, filed for bankruptcy today, citing several factors, including "ongoging regulatory challenges."  CNN Money: . . .

. . . "Would Peabody be bankrupt if the government had kept its nose out of the energy business? It's a seductive theory but market forces appear to have played a larger role than government interference.

"The fact is natural gas, mostly obtained from hydraulic fracturing, is booming and utility companies see the writing on the wall regarding the cost of coal going up as a result of the goverment's "war on carbon." Even without the price increase, natural gas would still be the winner given the oversupply for the foreseeable future. "

Mr. Springsteen, no, It’s Not Okay to Allow Men in the Women’s Bathroom

" . . .but these feelings of empathy take a distant second place to my desire to keep my 12 and four year-old daughters safe."

Dan Bongino

"No, it’s not okay in a civil society to allow biological males into the women’s bathroom. 

"Even in the increasingly dystopian far-left vision for tomorrow, this is still a sick, yes SICK, proposal. The far-left has grossly overestimated their battlefield strength in their never-ending war on our culture, and their new front, the battle for bathroom privacy and safety, is going to be a major loser for them. Here’s why. The far-left thinks they are fighting a savvy public relations battle in the culture war. But the majority of Americans, not aligned with the increasingly deranged far-left, are fighting a totally different battle. They are fighting for the dignity, the privacy, and most importantly, the safety, of their daughters and their wives. And this is a battle they are unwilling to forfeit or lose, REGARDLESS of the legal penalties, or the division-politics labels the far-left will disingenuously throw at them." . . .

I sincerely do not wish emotional pain on anyone conflicted over which bathroom they should use, but these feelings of empathy take a distant second place to my desire to keep my 12 and four year-old daughters safe. For all of the far-left bluster about what these new bathroom rules are and aren’t, they cannot run, or hide, from the FACT that a man, with all of his male physiology intact, can claim on any given day that he identifies as a woman and follow my daughter into a bathroom. 

Bigot.

Networks Style Bathroom Bills ‘Legal Protection’ for Transgenders
Words mean everything.

"Transgender bathroom bills were a hot topic and a favorite of the media including NBC, ABC, and CBS this past year.

"The networks have made clear where they stand as state after state decides whether it will require transgenders to use the bathroom corresponding with the gender indicated on his or her birth certificate." . . .

Here’s Your Disturbing Social Commentary Meme Of The Day…  "This is obviously brought on by the fights now going on in states like North Carolina, which is being threatened with economic terrorism by the likes of PayPal and a number of banks, who are purporting to pull investments of jobs and capital out of the state in retaliation for passing a law that, among other things, makes women’s bathrooms for women and men’s bathrooms for men.

"Somehow that’s controversial. Most of us are puzzled by why – your sex is determined by the plumbing you were born with, and while you might well “identify” as something else, that’s your problem."

Obama improperly leaps to Hillary’s email defense again

Legal Insurrection

"President Obama has a history of publicly defending Hillary Clinton on her email scandal, and he did it again today on Fox News Sunday.

'"Such public statements in and of themselves are improper political interference in agencies that report to the President.

"In a 60 Minutes interview in October 2015, Obama pretty much signaled Justice to lay off Hillary (emphasis added):

. . .

"Perhaps now we know why Hillary is so confident nothing will happen to her.

"On Face the Nation on March 7, 2016, Hillary rejected the suggestion that she might be indicted:

John Dickerson, host of CBS’s “Face the Nation,” told Clinton he has “talked to Democrats and they worry that somebody is going to get indicted.”

“Well, there is no basis for that,” Clinton responded.

"Worse still, Clinton blamed the State Department for the classification problem, making light of the situation."

Obama tells Loretta Lynch not to prosecute Hillary on classified email crimes

Thomas Lifson  'Interviewed by Chris Wallace of Fox News (transcript here, video embedded below), President Obama pulled down the blindfold on Lady Justice and signaled that there was no crime at all when Hillary Clinton set up an unsecured private server and left classified information vulnerable to hacking by the world’s intelligence services.  He also created a new category of classification: “top secret top secret” as opposed to mere “top secret,” which he averred to Chris Wallace might be information that could be gleaned from public sources."
. . . 

"Nope.  The fix is in.  If the FBI makes a criminal referral, and Lynch declines to prosecute, we are headed for a crisis that will echo Watergate.

"Side note: The left has a new tactic for minimizing misdeeds that are inconvenient for it to confront.  Naming the issue once is now a way of trivializing it.  Only when repeated is it real.  Thus, we need to worry about only “top secret top secret” or, as Whoopi Goldberg put it, “rape rape.”

"Of course, none of this applies to conservatives.

"Video of the complete interview:

Embrace the Chaos, Excuse the Dust

Jack Cashill   . . .“I'm getting questions constantly from foreign leaders about some of the wackier suggestions that are being made,” echoed President Barack Obama. “I have to emphasize that it's not just Trump's proposals. You are also hearing concerns about Cruz's proposals.”

"The operative word about the primaries among the naysayers is one that Kerry uses frequently, “embarrassing.” The Republicans are embarrassing themselves before the nation and embarrassing the nation before the world.

'"Hogwash.

"This year, the Republicans have defied their own party mandarins, the high priests of political correctness, and a complicit and corrupt media to stage the most exciting and energetic primary process since they nominated underdog Abraham Lincoln on the third ballot during a tumultuous Chicago convention." . . .

Exclusive: Kathleen Willey Blasts Feminists for Ignoring Bill Clinton’s ‘Rapes, Sexual Assaults,’ Says Hillary ‘Allowed Herself to Be Humiliated’

https://earloftaint.com/

Breitbart  "Kathleen Willey, one of the women who famously accused Bill Clinton of sexual assault, and who has said she faced attempts to intimidate and silence her, used a radio interview on Sunday to blast established feminists for not speaking out about Bill Clinton’s alleged sex crimes.

"Willey said she found it “very frustrating” that feminists haven’t called out Hillary Clinton for ignoring the controversies over her husband’s alleged assaults against women.

"Stated Willey:

I don’t understand why these [feminist] women will not address this. It’s a problem. It’s Hillary Clinton’s problem. It’s Bill Clinton’s problem. It’s Chelsea Clinton’s problem.  Hillary Clinton chose to look the other way, to allow herself to be humiliated in front of the world and she enabled him to continue on with his behavior.  And it has not stopped.You know, if he has a consensual relationship with somebody and she doesn’t care and he doesn’t care, then I guess that’s none of our business. But when it crosses the line into rape and sexual harassment and sexual assault, well then that ought to be the business of the feminists.

If You Don't Rent to Criminals, Are You a Racist?

Townhall

"You're a private landlord, renting apartments in a building you bought with your savings from years of hard work and modest living. You take pride in maintaining your property, keeping it clean, comfortable, and attractive. You charge a fair rent and treat your tenants with courtesy and respect. Your tenants, in turn, appreciate the care you put into the building. And they trust you to screen prospective tenants wisely, accepting only residents who won't jeopardize the building's safe and neighborly character. That's why you only consider applications from individuals who are employed or in school, whose credit scores are strong, and who have no criminal record." 

"Most Americans would look at you and likely see a prudent, levelheaded property owner. Not the Obama administration. The Department of Housing and Urban Development warned last week that landlords who refuse to rent to anyone with a criminal record are in violation of the Fair Housing Act and can be prosecuted and fined for racial discrimination." . . .

Krauthammer: Obama Used ‘Deception’ To Sell Iran Deal, ‘You Want to Weep’ When You See His Reaction To Iran’s Behavior

Breitbart (NOT the evil Disney character.)

Video here.

. . . "Krauthammer said, “You hear the administration reaction to what Iran is doing, and you want to weep. The president says it’s not living up to the spirit of the agreement. As if anybody sentient would believe that the Iranians believe in the kind of spirit Obama does. The reaction, the behavior since the signing of the agreement has shown that it has shown no concern whatsoever, the ballistic missiles, the shipping of weapons to rebels, the using of Hezbollah to fight on behalf of Assad in Syria, the threatening of the neighbors. I mean, this was so obvious from the beginning. Then you get Earnest today saying that what the Iranians are doing with the weapons shipment is not consistent with UN Security Council. No, it’s a violation. And the worst part of this is not just the naïveté, it’s the deception that the administration used in selling the agreement on two fronts. Number one, you show the clip of the administration spokesman saying that UN Security Council resolutions would prohibit ballistic missile launches. No, the administration, at the last minute, caved, changed the resolution, so it is not a violation. And we have now admitted it at the UN, and secondly, we had promised the Congress that we would not allow the Iranians to dollarize their transactions, and we are doing that now.' ” . . .

All wrong -- in California, girls can use urinals in the boys' restroom
"As of January 1, students in California public schools have been able to choose whether to use the boys’ rest room or girls’ rest room, as well as the girls’ locker room or boys’ locker room, based on whether they feel female or male, not whether they are anatomically female or male." . . .
