NEW BLACK PANTHERS LEADER: GOD TOLD US TO PUT BOUNTY ON ZIMMERMAN


Big Government  
Our belief teaches us that we obey man’s law, but wen(sp) there’s a conflict between man’s law and God’s law, we are duty bound to follow the law of God. And God says that justice must be done. And so we received a revelation, those that work in that particular department in the party received a revelation to work with the community there, and they came together with a $10,000 reward offer for a legal citizen’s arrest. Some are calling it a bounty. Whatever.
"President Obama is fond of lamenting religious extremists who use God to justify their violent and subversive activities. Yet his administration is nowhere to be found on this issue. In fact, his Justice Department has refused to prosecute the New Black Panthers for obvious voter intimidation. The good news is that Obama’s war on religion only extends so far; the bad news is that it doesn’t extend far enough to stop the New Black Panthers from incentivizing  people to capture, injure, or kill a legal citizen." 


God will never give us a command that runs counter to His will as expressed in the Scriptures. But Muslims do not yield to the authority of the New Testament.

The Vetting of Barack Obama Continues

Nice Deb
"America elected a lying, duplicitous, radical community organizer bent on transforming the nation from a free Democratic Republic into something at best resembling a European style Socialist state – at worst a Soviet satellite. The media gatekeepers continue to protect him from scrutiny, the Republican establishment is afraid to confront it because they don’t want to upset the mushy middle  – it’s up to the right-ring blogosphere, once again – to get the story out."

Many links on the subject included here, followed by the following:

[Retired United States Postal Worker Allen Hulton]'s "testimony states Mary and Tom Ayers (Parents of Bill ”I don’t regret setting bombs” Ayers) were sponsoring Barack Obama as a foreign student, and financially supporting his education.
"This is a huge revelation on not one, but two separate fronts.
"Bill Ayers of dubious “Weatherman” fame, was not just “a guy who lives in my neighborhood”, as then candidate Obama brushed aside. The video linked here comes from a televised DNC Debate in the summer of 2008. As Hillary Clinton revealed then, Obama served in a paid position on the Woods Foundation with Bill Ayers and the two were involved in several projects dispersing millions of dollars over several years.
"Realistically, the Ayers family could be said to have adopted Barack Obama, if not as a son then certainly as a kindred Marxist spirit, and treated him to one of the finest educations possible.
"There is little doubt Mr. Obama has been less than honest with regard to the Ayers family and their significance in his life.
"As disingenuous as this is, it is by no means the most important revelation."

Obama uses Gingrich to attack Ryan and Romney

Beltway Confidential  "That renowned liberal Newt Gingrich, called the first version of that [Paul Ryan] budget 'radical,'" Obama sarcastically told the assembled reporters. "This is coming from Newti Gingrich!" Obama was referring to Gingrich's description of the Ryan budget as "right-wing social engineering."

"Obama moved from the Gingrich dig to mocking Romney for using the word "marvelous". "One of my potential opponents, Mitt Romney," Obama observed, "said that he's very supportive of this new budget. He even called it 'marvelous,' which is a word you don't often hear when it comes to describing a budget."

MSNBC Fixes False Report Which Made Zimmerman Look Racist, Doesn't Acknowledge Error  "As noted above, MSNBC.com was not acting alone in editing the context of the telephone conversation, last night on Fox News Channel, NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell discussed with host Sean Hannity how NBC News did the exact same thing:"


WaPo: NBC to do ‘internal investigation’ on Zimmerman segment


But one set of facts is ironclad, and that’s the back-and-forth between Zimmerman and the dispatcher. To portray that exchange in a way that wrongs Zimmerman is high editorial malpractice well worthy of the investigation that NBC is now mounting."

SCOTUS meets Chicago style politics. Was there a leak to Obama? (Updated)

Did the Supreme Court’s initial ObamaCare vote leak to Obama?  " I have no idea why Drudge is pushing the “leak” angle. There’s nothing about it in the Reuters story he links to and, as far as I saw, nothing in O’s comments today in the Rose Garden to suggest he had inside info." 
....Rest assured, if Obama wins reelection and replaces Scalia or Kennedy with a hardcore liberal, the revered principle of judicial deference to Congress will be power-flushed down the toilet once a Republican president and legislature are in office together again.  Emphasis added.


Update: Hoover Institution: Justice Kennedy's Million Dollar Question"
Can you create commerce in order to regulate it?
Thomas Lifson  "President Obama's Rose Garden remarks yesterday on the Supreme Court are shameful, a blot on his presidency.
"Ultimately, I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress,"...
...."The Justices know very well that they depend on consensus acceptance of their rulings. What if certain segments of society began to characterize the Court as illegitimate?  The prospect of a president whipping up a segment of his base against the court's authority is, to use Obama's much-abused word, extraordinary. In the wake of liberal activist ruling, the talking heads always remind us that we must respect "the rule of law" when the Court invents law."
.... "I await the reaction of left wing law professors. Will any actually defend Obama's lies?"



President Obama is attacking the Supreme Court in a desperate attempt to salvage his presidency.    “What was ‘unprecedented’ was the partisan process President Obama used to shove this unconstitutional bill through despite the overwhelming objections from Americans across the country. Even if the law is upheld, Governor Romney will begin the process of repealing it on Day One in office.”

Red State on March 30th: Will Kagan leak the SCOTUS vote to the WH? ( but of course) Will the WH show that they’re about to lose? ( probably)    "So we now come to the question of Madame Justice Elena Kagan, who by any reasonable standard should have recused herself from the case. The former Solicitor General, who was instrumental in attempting to formulate the administration’s  ( inept) defense of Obamacare ( and one could only imagine her, while watching the current ( as of now) SC,  Donald Verrilli give a truly inept performance) thinking…”boy, am I glad I’m NOT the one having to try and defend this puppy.”) is a political and ideological creature first and foremost, a hard core leftie.

"Her question ( “isn’t it OK if we just let the feds give the states boatloads of money to insure poor people?”) demonstrates everything that is wrong with, and about, this woman."


Neal Boortz: Caesar prepares to blame the court   "Over 230 years ago patriots would wrap their bloody feet in rags and drag them across frozen ground to engage the British in the next step to independence.  Surely, on election day, you can manage to put your healthy feet into a pair of warm shoes and make your way to a voting precinct near you to preserve that independence.  Nobody will be shooting at you as they were our Revolutionary War soldiers.  (Well – Holder’s Black Panther Party may be there for a little voter intimidation .. but you can handle that."

Do not forget the JOURNOLIST in this election year


Has a shadowy gang of left-wing journalists and intellectuals been plotting to manipulate the news cycle…
"Its dues paying member organizations include The Nation,Mother JonesTalking Points MemoThe American ProspectMs., Democracy Now! and many more (a complete list is here). The purpose of the group was explicit and can be found on their websiteThe Media Consortium".   Inspiration for all this was from today's post in American Glob

Never forget what the Journolist was, especially during this election year:  Present among the bloggers, reporters and editors were a number of professional political operatives, including top White House economic advisors, key Obama political appointees, and Democratic campaign veterans. Some left government to join Journolist. Others took the opposite route. A few contributed to Journolist from their perches in politics. At times, it became difficult to tell who was supposed to be covering policy and who was trying to make it.


Wikipedia had this excerpt in it's explanatiion of "Journolist":
On July 20, 2010, The Daily Caller (DC) published the dialog of the JournoList concerning Jeremiah Wright.[12] The contributors discussed killing the Wright story, as it was reflecting negatively on Barack Obama. In a separate discussion, about an ABC News-sponsored debate between Obama and Hillary Clinton, Michael Tomasky, a writer for The Guardian, also tried to rally his fellow members of JournoList: “Listen folks – in my opinion, we all have to do what we can to kill ABC and this idiocy in whatever venues we have. This isn’t about defending Obama. This is about how the [mainstream media] kills any chance of discourse that actually serves the people".[12] James Taranto observed that one JournoList contributor,Spencer Ackerman of The Washington Independent, stated "If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they've put upon us. Instead, take one of them — Fred BarnesKarl Rove, who cares – and call them racists".[13]

"Just to give you an idea how serious the Consortium was about this, have a look at this paper and accompanying graph co-authored by the Media Consortium’s head, Tracy Van Slyke:"


When reading or viewing liberal media stories, one needs a long memory

Is there nobody this man will not single out for attack?

Obama Slams Supreme Court over Obamacare  "The highest elected official in the United States dished out an extra helping of irony yesterday when, in speaking at a joint news conference with Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Mexican President Felipe Calderon, President Barack Obama slammed the Supreme Court as an “unelected group of people” who will have turned to “judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint” if they strike down Obamacare."
...."The irony in all this is that this President has presided over an Administration that is the epitome of recklessly abusing power, at times in flagrant violation of the Constitution, and has empowered unelected bureaucrats to write scads of new regulations impacting nearly every corner of American life."   
 Emphasis added. Perhaps Mr. Obama should think of the court as "justice czars"


Volokh Conspiracy: Four Thoughts on the Individual Mandate Argument  "If the Court does end up striking down the mandate, this will be the second consecutive presidency in which the Supreme Court imposed significant limits on the primary agenda of the sitting President in ways that were unexpected based on precedents at the time the President acted. Last time around, it was President Bush and the War on Terror." Also from Volokh:

President Obama versus the Constitution  "President Obama can call legislation enacted by a vote of 219 to 212 a “strong” majority if he wishes. But there is nothing in the Constitution suggesting that a bill which garners the votes of 50.3% of the House of Representatives has such a “strong” majority that it therefore becomes exempt from judicial review. To the contrary, almost all of the 165 federal statutes which the Court has ruled unconstitutional had much larger majorities, most of them attracted votes from both Democrats and Republicans, and some of them were enacted nearly unanimously."


: Obama goes after the Supreme Court  "The president’s attack, then, is not only irresponsible but also politically risky. If his own side doesn’t call him out on his antics, Romney and other conservatives should — in defending the court they’d be right on the merits and right on the politics."


Legal InsurrectionHey Obama, know what else those unelected judges have? "The thing is, those judges may not be elected, and may not have any divisions.
But they have one thing, long memories:"

"The other thing they have is class, so they will not allow those memories to get in the way of their decision. And they will not be bullied by the bully pulpit."

Group to honor Minn. residents of US Civil War

Shakopee, MN  "Just three years into statehood, Minnesota in 1861 was anxious to prove itself.
"Volunteers, the first of an estimated 24,000 state soldiers who would fight in the Civil War, rushed to sign up to preserve the Union by putting down secessionist Southern states.
"They fought their first battle three months after the war began. Dozens more followed, often accompanied by heavy casualties. Late one afternoon at Gettysburg, four of every five soldiers of the First Minnesota Volunteers were killed or wounded in a heroic charge that bought crucial time for the Union army to prevail in battle and, ultimately, to win the war."
Art above from Gettysburg Daily:Major General Winfield Scott Hancock on horseback in the center of the painting, directs Colonel William Colvill of the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment to charge down the west slope of Cemetery Ridge towards Confederates approaching a weak point in the Union line. This image, titled “Minnesota Forward” by artist Dale Gallon is courtesy of Ms. Anne Gallon and Mr. Dale Gallon of Gallon Historical Art Inc., 9 Steinwehr Avenue, Gettysburg, PA 17325. 

Stone Sentinels; 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment  "The 1st Minnesota performed one of the most critical actions of the battle during Longstreet's Assault of July 2nd. Sickles' Corps was falling back in disarray and Longstreet's men were advancing to penetrate the center of the Union line, which had been dangerously thinned to prop up other sectors. General Hancock rode up to the 1st Minnesota, the only organized Union troops at hand, pointed at the advancing Confederates, and ordered them to "Take those colors!" Their sacrificial charge against overwhelming odds halted the Confederate advance and bought time for the Union line to reform, forcing Lee into one last desperate gamble with Pickett's Charge the next day. The survivors of the 1st Minnesota played a role in repulsing that charge as well."

From the Trayvon Martin Tragedy to a National Travesty

Victor Davis Hanson The Rules of Outrage — Or Why the Trayvon Martin Tragedy Divides the Country
"In other words, we are left with the following paradoxes: the traditional civil rights industry will see the Martin case as an indictment against America, one deserving of compensatory and reparatory action from the majority, which they are prepared to oversee and adjudicate. The majority, of citizens, however, sees the current civil rights hierarchy as much of the problem with, not the solution to, the Martin tragedy. No, it is worse than that still: the Martin case has evoked renewed interest not in disproportionate rates of black crime alone, but in the civil rights leadership’s apparent lack of concern about it."

NBC....again: Trayvon Martin Tape Editing Prompts Internal Probe at NBC "The edited call, which aired on NBC’s "Today Show" on March 27, featured Zimmerman talking to a 911 dispatcher.

“This guy looks like he’s up to no good … he looks black,” Zimmerman said in the edited segment.
That, it turns out, appears to be only part of the exchange. The complete exchange went like this:
Zimmerman: "This guy looks like he’s up to no good. Or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around, looking about."
Dispatcher: "OK, and this guy — is he black, white or Hispanic?"
Zimmerman: "He looks black."    (Emphases added)
Hat tip to Andrew Klavan, who linked to the above post in his column today entitled, "The Truth, Crucified". The column begins: 
I’m writing this on Palm Sunday. This is the day we remember Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, when the crowds hailed him as the King who came in the name of the Lord. A few days later, the crowds — possibly even some of the same people — were calling for his crucifixion.

More on the Critical Race Theory

Breitbart  "Picture this: you are the president of a major law school. A visiting professor, assigned to teach an introductory law class, ignores the curriculum and instead usurps the class time to espouse a radical race theory he has recently developed.First-year law students, mandatorily assigned to the class, stop attending the class, moonlighting instead at other sections of the same course being taught by other professors. As an administrator, what do you do? To reasonable people, the course of action is obvious--you simply tell the visiting professor to stop it, and to stick to the curriculum. 
"But you don’t do that. Why not?
"The answer is obvious, but complex: because you know you will be called a “racist” by activists, and you will do anything to avoid that. So you try to tiptoe around the problem, and you make it worse.
"That's one legacy of racialist Derrick Bell, when he was invited to teach at the home of political correctness, Stanford Law School, in the 1980's."
To justify his race war, he argued that the existence of slavery at the time of the U.S. Constitution rendered that agreement unenforceable against blacks. He reasoned that the Constitution was fatally illegitimate, and could never be fixed--not by the Civil War or the resulting anti-slavery amendments, nor by the Civil Rights amendments. To Bell, the Constitution was merely a tool to keep the black race down--permanently. It was government of the racists, by the racists and for the racists.
And this refers to the very Constitution that President Obama swore to defend.

"Breaking footage shows a young Barack Obama leading a protest at Harvard Law School on behalf of Prof. Derrick Bell, a radical academic tied to Jeremiah Wright. We will be releasing significant information in the coming hours."

Thomas Sowell: Back to the Future? Congress' power to regulate interstate commerce.

Thomas Sowell  "The underlying argument was similar to that in the 1942 case of Wickard v. Filburn: School violence can affect education, which can affect productivity, which can affect interstate commerce.

"Since virtually everything affects virtually everything else, however remotely, "interstate commerce" can justify virtually any expansion of government power, by this kind of sophistry.
....
"No doubt people who are tired or drowsy are more likely to run through a red light than people who are rested and alert. But does that mean that local governments should have the power to order people when to go to bed and when to get up, because their tiredness can have an effect on the likelihood of their driving through a red light?
"The power to regulate indirect effects is not a slippery slope. It is the disastrous loss of freedom that lies at the bottom of a slippery slope."
This argument may sound ridiculous, but we have years of examples of how this is the way liberal minds work.

The vultures circle Trayvon Martin

"In ways I have not seen in my forty-one years on this earth, this case -- or as it should be properly put -- the out-of-context reaction to this case has been perhaps the single most racially divisive event of my lifetime. ...More than the O.J. Simpson verdict, more than the Rodney King case, more than any other incident I can call to memory -- the drummed-up reaction -- as was on display by the sandwich ladies -- made multiple customers in the Atlanta airport's Charley's cafe (in the B terminal) physically uneasy.


George Zimmerman and the Hate Crime statute  "Furthermore, judging from their past actions and statements, the President and the Attorney General will be open to prosecuting Zimmerman. If they nonetheless decline, Zimmerman's innocence will be evident, and we will also know the names of those who turned a teenager's death into a circus. "

Boortz: "If creepers Sharpton and Jackson were really serious..." "… those two race whores would pay as much attention to the culture of urban black violence as they are to this case in Sanford, Florida."

"Florida Code 788.01." 
Black Panther leader tells CNN's Anderson Cooper he doesn't follow "white man law," disavows federal and state law.
Cooper interviews Muhammad
This provision of the Florida criminal code makes it a felony to “by threat, confining or abducting, or imprisoning another person against his will” in an attempt to terrorize that person."....
 "Florida Code 777.04."
This one deals with soliciting someone to violate the law. “A person who solicits another to commit an offense prohibited by law and in the course of such solicitation commands, encourages, hires, or requests another person to engage in specific conduct which would constitute such offense or an attempt to commit such offense commits the offence of criminal solicitation.”

 "By posting a “wanted dead or alive” poster, and by exhorting people to “capture” Zimmerman and deliver him to Moonpie’s gang, Moonpie* has violated this section of Florida law."
*"Michael Muhammad Knight (born 1977) is an American Muslim novelist, journalist, and performance artist. His writings are popular among American Muslim youth. The San Francisco Chronicle described him as "one of the most necessary and, paradoxically enough, hopeful writers of Barack Obama's America."....
