As Maher, other celebs wallow in imagined racism, teens die in the streets

Comic Bill Maher said Matt Drudge is a racist. (Screen snip from video at The Daily Caller)Bill Maher recently declared Matt Drudge is a racist because he ran some photos of black celebs on his news page.

As Maher and other celebs,  including some high profile black Democrats, imagine racism on every corner, teens are dying in the streets, but racism has nothing to do with it.

A shooting occurred in Nashville on Saturday night in the same neighborhood where 17 year old Antwand Covington was killed the previous Saturday as he arrived at a Sweet 16 party.

League of Women Voters special deal on Cuba travel—partisan or not?

Screen snip of video posted on League of Women Voters-Virginia home page. I admit I’ve always assumed the League of Women Voters leans to the Left—just my personal impression based on snippets of policy statements and such. I noticed a link beneath a story at Pajamas Media on Friday and got curious.

The title of the story PJ Media linked to: “League of Women Voters Aren’t Nonpartisan.”

I did a little searching, but I can’t say I was surprised by what I found.

Millions in earmarks, grants enriched Obama’s city of residence

“The Department of Health and Human Services last week announced it had awarded a $5.9 million grant to a University of Chicago Medical Center program tied to Michelle Obama and run by Eric Whitaker, one of President Obama’s closest friends.”—White House Dossier; May 14, 2012

From the grave, Breitbart vets ‘Baraka Obama’

This screen snip from a 1998 poster publicizing the play ‘The Love Song of Saul Alinksy’ shows Obama’s first name spelled as ‘Baraka.’ Obama participated in a panel discussion following the play performance in Chicago, a city most view as an icon of corruption.

There’s no doubt traditional media refused to vet Barack Obama when he was a junior senator running for the presidency. In 2008 most conservative media also refused to vet the candidate who rose so quickly in the power sphere of Democrat politics.

The US Report repeatedly pointed out Obama’s lack of real world experience, his mysterious background partially documented in his books and his foray into politics launched in the home of a notorious domestic terrorist turned activist-theorist in the field of public education.

Chicago city workers herded into ‘Wellness Program’ (Or else!) by Emanuel

Will Mayor Emanuel designate birthday cake as a controlled substance in Chicago?You have to wonder about people who decide to elect a man like Rahm Emanuel to serve as their mayor. Emanuel is notorious for ruthless political strategies and gutter talk, something even those who admire him acknowledge.

Now Emanuel has issued a ruling to the city employees who help keep Democrats in office. You either enroll in the city’s ‘Wellness Program’ or you cough up an extra $50 a month. Oh, well, at least the mayor just set a monetary penalty. He didn’t slam a steak knife into the table and declare anyone DOA.
