G-20 Cops Force Handcuffed Student To Pose For Group Photo
Text from Huffingtonpost: The video shows nearly a dozen Chicago cops gathering around a handcuffed man while another officer apparently takes a group photo. The Tribune identified the handcuffed man as Kyle Kramer, a college student. Kramer appears to have been brought out and put on the ground in front of the officers as the centerpiece of the picture.

Breaking News: Bernie Goldberg Grows Testicles
This is Bernie Goldberg on O'Reilly telling Billo The Clown that Fox News is pretty much not fair and balanced. He even gets Bill to agree that Fox News was and is a cheerleader for the Teabag, I mean Teaparty movement. This is news because usually, Bernie is asked to be a guest on Bill's show so that he can kiss Bill's ass and further the notion that all media are corrupt and out to tear down Fox News. Bill must have been fuming on the inside. Now, I'm sure if you watch tonight, Bill would have collected his thoughts and he'll probably answer Goldberg's analysis with some B.S. Talking Points memo when Goldberg isn't around to defend himself.

Welcome To The "New" America. You Like It?
This is footgage from the much hyped (by Glenn Beck and Fox News) 9/12 demonstration in Washington D.C. In the clip you can see a very angry white guy continuously harass a couple of black teenagers and a female adult. The guy does not let up. At one point he calls the black teenage male "boy", which I think is still a no-no where I'm from. The guy also claims that one of these teens assaulted him. He claims to have video proof, although I've seen none. At the end, he's interviewed by a "citizen journalist" and claims that these teens incited him!!!! As if I didn't just watch over 5 minutes of this idiot attempting to incite the teens!! I applaud the class that these teens displayed as they were being harassed by this psyco. In reality though, the guy needs a beatdown. Seriously.
Now, what do you suppose would have happened if an angry, middle-aged black man was following white teens and females while screaming at them? I'm pretty sure there would have been an immedite uproar and the black man would have ended up on the wrong side of a taser.

For those 2 or 3 people that read this blog, I've been busy. I'm back.
During Obama's speech on healthcare to a joint session of Congress, Rep. Joe "The Heckler" Wilson yells out "You lie" when Obama points out that no illegal aliens would benefit from the new healthcare bill. You can see the stunned looks of Vice President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Keep in mind that this type of behavior has NEVER happened in the history of this country.

The Irrepressable Former Congressman James Traficant Of Ohio
If you don't know who James Traficant is, he used to be a Democratic Congressman from the State of Ohio. He was expelled after being convicted of taking bribes, filing false tax returns, racketeering, and forcing his aides to perform chores at his farm in Ohio and on his houseboat in Washington, D.C. He served an eight-year prison term. I'm not sure if he's been turned loose yet or not but, I know that he'll be out real soon. Out of all of the corrupt politicians in D.C., this guy is my favorite. He seems to be angry about hypocrisy. He doesn't use that word hypocrisy but, he seems to be offended by the Congress's "holier than thou" approach to him. Good for him.
I have a series of James Traficant clips below. Because he's entertaining.

Ben Stein: "I Have Plenty Of Friends Who Are Racist"
The quote comes at the 4 minute mark in this video. Interesting that when Stein admits that he has racist friends, Beck dosen't seem to hammer him. I mean, according to Glenn Beck, Obama has racist friends (which I haven't seen evidence of) so he's racist. But, Stein ADMITS to having racist friends and his credibility is never questioned. Now what if Obama said, "yeah, i have racist friends"? Would he have ANY credibility?

I love how Beck first says "I'm not saying he dosen't like white people" and then goes on to call Obama a racist. Note: How can Obama be racist when he's appointed or hired more white people than any other black President in history?
Isn't this how conservatives defended Bush? He had Colin and Condi so he couldn't be a racist, right? The fact that he didn't react to Hurrican Katrina until 5 days later had nothing to do with his lack of concern for African-Americans.

G. Gordon Liddy Contorts To Imply Obama Not A U.S. Citizen
It should be no surprise that a right wing shill like Gordon Liddy would jump on this conspiracy theory. Of course Liddy himself has had a few problems with credibility. From Wikipedia:Liddy was the Nixon Administration liaison and leader of the group of five men who broke into the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate Complex with the intent to plant listening devices. John Dean had been given the responsibility for overall campaign intelligence by H.R. Haldeman, and recommended Liddy as intelligence chief to the Committee to Re-elect the President to Jeb Magruder, the Deputy Director. [4] Liddy did not participate in the break-in himself, insomuch as he did not actually enter the Watergate Complex, rather, he admitted to supervising the break-in from another hotel across the street. For his crime, which he coordinated with Hunt, Liddy was convicted of conspiracy, burglary and illegal wiretapping. Liddy was sentenced to a 20-year prison term and was ordered to pay $40,000 in fines. He began serving the sentence on January 30, 1973. On April 12, 1977, President Jimmy Carter commuted Liddy's sentence to eight years

If you haven't seen the first C Street video that was posted, please scroll down and review that one first.
Why Is Fox News Not Talking About The C Street Group?
This is a brilliant piece of reporting by Rachel Maddow of MSNBC. Her reporting sheds light on a secret religious group of Republican lawmakers who adhere to their "own" code of ethics which apparently doesn't involve being honest with the people who elected them. Seems they are only answerable to themselves. I just wonder why Fox News, with all it's investigative reporting on Obama's associations and Clinton's fundraising, hasn't sniffed this one out. Heck, they knew about Ensign because the husband of the woman he was cheating with went to Fox News... of all places, hoping the cable "news" channel could make Ensign stop sleeping with his wife!! You mean they didn't send Griff Jenkins to Ensign's doorstep for one of those famous ambush interviews? Maybe it was just an oversight.

It's so hard for Conservatives to appreciate the fact that a lot of people adored Michael Jackson. Yes, the news coverage was a little much but, the media covers tons of stories ad nauseum.

This, in my opinion is just more red meat for his kooky base.
