...we already know the identities of his accomplices.So now, adding to my list of life's accomplishments, I can now be described as a racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, choice-ophobic, homocidal bigot.
They include every one who has ever called Tiller's late term abortion clinic a murder mill.
Who ever called Tiller "Tiller the Killer."
The groups who spent decades fomenting hate toward a man who simply believed that he was serving a purpose by being one of the few doctors in the country performing late-term abortions.
Hate. Not heated opposition. Not strong disagreement.
But blind hatred.
The kind of hate that would prompt some maniac to take a gun into a church and shoot a man to death in front of friends and family.- Mike Hendricks of the Kansas City Star
Only a few days before, Aryelle Cormier, 17, slept in her suburban Gwinnett home by night and and attended The Paideia School by day.Experiencing the homeless life: 3 weeks.
But not now. At the moment, she is homeless. Cormier and 14 of her schoolmates bed down each night on a playground of the Inman Park Cooperative Preschool near downtown Atlanta, an unlikely classroom with stark questions for the typical private school kid...
Many said they felt guilty about having grown up in middle and upper-middle class homes that afforded them so many opportunities. They also felt a second round of guilt for “intruding on the lives” of the homeless.
President Obama's expressed hope today in his weekly address "that we can avoid the political posturing and ideological brinksmanship that has bogged down this (Supreme Court nomination) process, and Congress, in the past" runs against another historical first for the 44th president: his unique role in history as the first US President to have ever voted to filibuster a Supreme Court nominee.Newsbusters' Warner Todd Huston reports a second:
Roll Call is reporting that during the typical Friday afternoon document dump -- a practice used to hide actions that might prove somewhat embarrassing to the White House -- the administration quietly announced that some of the former restrictions on lobbying ballyhooed about during the late campaign have been lifted.That's real change and I believe it.
Reporting from Oakland -- Not many schools in California recruit teachers with language like this: "We are looking for hard working people who believe in free market capitalism. . . . Multi-cultural specialists, ultra liberal zealots, and college-tainted oppression liberators need not apply."(H.T. Memeorandum.)
That, it turns out, is just the beginning of the ways in which American Indian Public Charter and its two sibling schools spit in the eye of mainstream education. These small, no-frills, independent public schools in the hard-scrabble flats of Oakland sometimes seem like creations of television's "Colbert Report." They mock liberal orthodoxy with such zeal that it can seem like a parody...
It would be easy to dismiss American Indian as one of the nuttier offshoots of the fast-growing charter school movement, which allows schools to receive public funding but operate outside of day-to-day district oversight. But the schools command attention for one very simple reason: By standard measures, they are among the very best in California.
The Academic Performance Index, the central measuring tool for California schools, rates schools on a scale from zero to 1,000, based on standardized test scores. The state target is an API of 800. The statewide average for middle and high schools is below 750. For schools with mostly low-income students, it is around 650.
En este mundo traidorTranslated, that comes to:
Nada es verdad ni mentira;
Tes según el color
Del cristal con que se mira.
Ramón de Campoamor (1817-1901)
In this treacherous worldThere's some serious diversity, multi-culturalism, and non-absolutism.
Nothing is either truth or lie;
Everything depends on the color
Of the crystal that one looks through.
The Minority Report would like to take this opportunity to honor the birth date of America's number one mass murderer. One hundred and two years ago today, Rachel Carson was born...Unfortunately, Rachel Carson's methodology is commonplace among the various Leftist movements in our day. It has also been effective. And like me back in the mid-60's, the road to such social engineering tactics has been paved by the modern American public education system.
That little work of fiction, which has become an anthem for the environmental lobby, single-handedly brought about the ban in this country, and throughout the world, of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, better known as DDT.
As a result of that DDT ban, more than 50 million people, mostly impoverished third world children, have died from Malaria.
And sadly enough, it was all a lie.
I wanna see it painted, painted blackThese lyrics are from the popular song Paint It Black. The United States cannot just stand by and let Earth-hating mongers range freely upon our soil.

I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!
Some people believe that nuclear power is the answer to climate change, others have proposed green technologies such as wind or solar power, but Barack Obama's top man on global warming has suggested something far simpler – painting your roof white.
Steven Chu, the US Secretary of Energy and a Nobel prize-winning scientist, said yesterday that making roofs and pavements white or light-coloured would help to reduce global warming by both conserving energy and reflecting sunlight back into space. It would, he said, be the equivalent of taking all the cars in the world off the road for 11 years.

You borrow and spend at unprecedented, astronomical levels. You expand government exponentially, insist that our health care (and every other) system is broken. Then you wring your hands, declare it all unsustainable, and bleed the country dry with a national sales tax.Another crisis that has to be handled quickly that only the government can fix.
The leg humping sycophancy of the media.Chris Matthews, et al., you have understated the 'tingle up your leg.'
Memorial Day is the perfect occasion to embrace the truth. Do not listen to those who say that it is just another day off where people do nothing but drink beer and eat barbecue with their buddies. That’s a strawman offered up by the bumper sticker set because they fear Memorial Day’s true meaning.I also think that George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. wouldn't want to be honored by taking the day off from school or work. They would be more honored by people working or studying a little harder on that day.
At the risk of being presumptuous, those who gave their lives for our country would want you to gather your buddies and drink beers and eat barbecue... There is a reason that on Memorial Day the flag flies at half-staff only until noon, when it is raised to the top of the pole again. It symbolizes that we honor our dead by going forward with our lives.
North Korea announced Monday that it successfully carried out an underground nuclear test, weeks after threatening to restart its rogue atomic program.The study done by our secret basement laboratory's scientists and researchers have concluded differently, however. The research was done by 3 of our nuclear physicists, 2 nukyoolar weapons scientists, and 3 North Korean cultural experts.
The country's official Korean Central News Agency called Monday's test "part of measures to bolster its nuclear deterrent for self-defense."
President Lee Myung-bak convened an emergency security session. His spokesman, Lee Dong-kwan, confirmed that a nuclear test may have been carried out in the North.
Seismologists from the U.S., South Korea and Japan reported earthquakes in an northeastern area, where North Korea conducted a nuclear test in 2006.
A 4.7-magnitude earthquake was registered in northeastern North Korea at 9:54 a.m. (0054 GMT), the U.S. Geological Survey said.
We unanimously conclude that the 4.7-magnitude seismic reverberation was not due to an underground nuclear detonation. We highly suspect that Kim Jong Il and Kim Jong Woon's personal underground kimchi (In North Korea its name has been changed to kim jong chi.) production facility suffered an unfortunate fermentation accident.
Bite-sized chunks of partially fermented cabbage were found as far away as Manila, Vladivostok, and Honolulu.
Knowing that Western news outlets would bite on any cover-up propaganda, the North Koreans chose to use this culinary explosion to perpetuate their bad boy, rogue regime, dangerous, blackmail-the-West image.
...used the controversy surrounding his Notre Dame address Sunday as a lesson on the need to bridge cultural divides in America, as he urged graduates to seek common ground on issues, like abortion, that stir passion on both sides.
But Obama called for "open hearts, open minds, fair-minded words" in the midst of such persistent debates.

O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye, to Washington.
Come and behold Him, born to save us from the Pubbie elephant;
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a gigantic coffer, and eight tiny brains here,
With the President as driver, so fashionably black,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Barack.
More rapid than pickpockets his counselors came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and call'd them by name:
"Now! Pelosi, now! Biden, now! Geithner, now Reid,,
"On! Rahm, on! Kerry, on! Ayers and Reverend Wright, indeed;
"To top the last deficit! to top the world's debt!
"Now dash away! dash away! dash away without regret!"
When George W. Bush and the GOP were in control from 2000-2006, the Democrats complained, generally without cause, that they didn’t have enough influence, that the Republicans didn’t reach out to them, even though John McCain, to name one, spent so much time reaching out that Cindy McCain began to worry that she’d lost her husband to Russ Feingold or Ted Kennedy.Personal side note to Burt: Our lab scientists have been working on that vaccine for years. The only successes to date have also been fatal. (Some suggest that we market that one.)

In a May 19 segment on his "Hardball" program about global warming, MSNBC's Chris Matthews interviewed Reps. Jim Moran, D-Va., and Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif., who had opposing views on the issue. However, Matthews attacked Rohrabacher, a global warming skeptic, as someone ignorant of science.Ms. Matthews, you shouldn'ta outta said that 'cause one of these guys is agonna git ya. It'll probably be Rohrabacher 'cause Lance will just enjoy the extra blog hits.
"Congressman Rohrabacher, are you a Luddite, a troglodyte? Are you a part of ‘The Planet of the Apes' that doesn't want science? Where would you place yourself in this argument?" Matthews asked.
Senator Dick Durbin: "According to experts, Guantanamo, unfortunately, has become a recruiting tool for Al-Qaeda that is hurting America's security."Rush misses the point here, but he can be forgiven since the report by the Middle East experts in our secret basement laboratory has not yet been forwarded to him.
Rush Limbaugh: "Al-Qaeda uses it as propaganda to recruit terrorists in the Middle East, to show how evil we are to terrorists at Club Gitmo.
Ohhh! Oh, I get it. I get it. So it's all part of this theory that we create more terrorists. I got you. Okay. There aren't any stories out there to that effect, or there are no stories. There's no empirical evidence. There's more evidence that we evolved from that lemur monkey, 47 million years old, than there is that Guantanamo Bay created more terrorists."
Typical conversation between two Arab young men would commonly go something like this:
Sadiq: "The Al-Qaeda recruiter is in town today. Are you going down to sign up?"
Hasan: "Are you kidding? The Americans are kickin' Al-Qaeda ass all over the planet. And if they capture you instead of killing you they send you to some hell hole like Guantanamo."
Sadiq: "Guantanamo? We should be so lucky. It's even better'n stayin' at the Bagdad Hilton. Ya get three squares a day of the best Arab food and generally get treated like kings. Cousin Raghib is there and really is packin' on the pounds.
They give ya a Quran and prayer mat and let you do all of your rituals."
Hasan: "But the New York Times says they torture you in a most sadistic way!"
Sadiq: "Camel droppings! Sometimes they give you the evil eye and talk mean and yell or put a crawly bug on you, but they are so soft that they even make Uncle Pasha look like The Great Satan."
Hasan: "Wow, I'm tired of herding these stinky goats all day. I'm going to sign up right now!"
Sadiq: "Me, too! Let's went, Cisco!"
I was awakened this morning by our two cats licking my back and our dog licking my butt instead of her own. I thought this a little odd and I did feel a little funny. When I went into the bathroom and glanced up at the mirror this is what I saw. "Hmmm," I thought, "am I putting on a little more weight?" Then I noticed a couple of 'zits' that I hadn't noticed before.1. I once was a very liberal hippie vegan and voted for both George McGovern and Jimmy Carter.I hack a loogie full of F1BP1 infected phlegm on tee bee, Ling Carter, and Snaggletoothie Chris.
2. Jesus Christ took me into His Kingdom in 1982 while riding my bicycle in Victoria, Texas.
3. I met my wife in a psych ward. She was the unit nurse and readied a syringe with Thorazine before someone told her that I was a 'float' working there and was not a patient. We married in 1998. I was 46. I now have 5 grandchildren, all ages 4 and below. Those squirts are a lot of fun.
4. I served in the U.S. Army in the early 1970's as an M.P. After receiving orders for Viet Nam and going to Oakland, California to ship out, my orders were changed and I served my tour near Stuttgart, West Germany.
5. I like cats even better than dogs.
6. Once as a high school wrestler, I came back on the Monday after Thanksgiving weekend 161/2 lbs. overweight with a Tuesday night match looming. I made weight and won my Tuesday match.
7. I listen to Rush Limbaugh at work.
8. I may very well have as much fun blogging as anyone on the planet.
Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes. Then you'll be a mile away, have his shoes, and can say anything you like.1
TOPIC: Abraham Lincoln was neither a breast-supporting women's undergarment, nor the upper hind leg of a hog, nor even an expensive luxury automobile. But... did he exist? Why or why not believe this? Discuss!2
So, a grandchild on the way, being likened to the idiot, and suffering from the flu... unrelated facts or circumstances of life? Nay, nay, I tell you! These are integral clusters of pixels forming a single coherent picture of meaning. These situations point out very plainly to the discerning mind that 1) I am a phlegming idiot, and 2) that I am an expectorant grandfather.
Now isn't that definitive proof of intelligent design, you dogmatic offspring of Beelzebub and High Priests of the Temple of Darwin ?3
Effigies? What for? You should use the real guy!4
Paternity tests then revealed what had happened — two eggs had been fertilized by two different sperm and there was a 99.99% chance the twins had different dads.The surprised mother realized that the 'enchanted evening' in Havana's Copacabana Lounge and Hotel several decades ago was not just a product of a drug induced haze. Her encounters with both Fidel Castro and the visiting Robert Mugabe must have done the two tricks. She had long wondered how she ended up with that box of Cuban cigars and a 1 Billion Zimbabwean Dollar Banknote.
