Last week’s highly touted 1000 drop in unemployment claims revised to up 2000.

Rush Limbaugh reported that last week’s drop in unemployment was revised from down 1000 to up 2000.  AP hides the numbers.

Rush Limbaugh: Elizabeth Warren should be admitted to the Cherokee tribe.

Rush Limbaugh made the case for making Elizabeth Warren a Cherokee.

Why? 

Because they don't have any white women in the tribe. 

That's discrimination! 

If the Augusta Golf Club needs to admit white women because they don't have any, should the Cherokees be allowed to exclude white women?

Rove: What Obama's Campaign Team is Thinking

The only mystery to me is why so many people have left their money in the Greek banks this long.

By the time the Ministry of Finance is storing records in garbage bags and shopping carts, perhaps, just maybe, one might become a little concerned about loaning money to the Greek government. One hopes.

53,000 Dead Voters Found in Florida

J. Christian Adams: 

I have learned that Florida election officials are set to announce that the secretary of state has discovered and purged up to 53,000 dead voters from the voter rolls in Florida. How could 53,000 dead voters have sat on the polls for so long? Simple. Because Florida hadn’t been using the best available data revealing which voters have died. Florida is now using the nationwide Social Security Death Index for determining which voters should be purged because they have died. Here is the bad news. Most states aren’t using the same database that Florida is.

Wait, there's more: 

 Consider the case of Lafayette Keaton. Keaton not only voted for a dead person in Oregon, he voted for his dead son. Making Keaton’s fraud easier was Oregon’s vote by mail scheme, which has opened up gaping holes in the integrity of elections. The incident in Oregon just scratches the surface of the problem. Massachusetts and Mississippi are but two other examples of the dead rising on election day.

And more:  

My dad died in 2000 in South Carolina. He was a lifelong Republican and never voted any other way. In 2008 a letter addressed to him arrived from the board of elections. The letter said that they had received his request to switch parties and a new voter registration card was enclosed which now had him as a Democrat. You had better believe that the Dems are stealing votes via dead people.

Now, new evidence that Global Warming is a hoax.

The Sucker Punch

Are you beginning to notice a pattern?

Some guy is walking down the street, is approached by some teens, and gets sucker punched. No warning. No “give me your money.” Simple sudden violence with a punch in the face followed by a swarming gang attack with kicks to the head and body.

And then the gang runs away, perhaps after taking a cell phone or – in the case of Pastor Winans taking his car. Or maybe not taking anything at all, just laughing and enjoying the thrill of beating someone up.

Sort of like the story George Zimmerman told about being beaten by Trayvon Martin.

But the sucker punch seems to be a common thread, and if you can knock someone out with one punch to the face, like the Baltimore tourist, you get extra points and the gang laughs and cheers.  They're having a party watching someone being beaten and humiliated, even performing sex acts on the victim.  They even videotape their attacks and post them on-line.   The only people unaware of these attacks are those who get their news from their newspaper. 

Where does it come from? Is this a scene from a movie that kids are copying? Is this a style, like the droopy pants and shoes without laces that’s a take-off from prison wear ( where they take your belt and shoelaces to keep you from harming yourself)?

Really, it’s like a new dance craze. Where does it come from, who are they patterning themselves after?

Here's a story from downtown Washington DC.

Dear PoPville,

I wanted to make you aware of a recent attack in Logan Circle, particularly after the mugging incident near 15th & Q a couple of weeks ago.

A group of about 10 teenagers (approx. 13-14 years old) attacked a man on the north side of Q St near Kingman Pl around 5:30 p.m. last Saturday, May 12.

I noticed a group of teenagers standing near the corner of Kingman & Q on the south side of the street. I did not think much of it, as they seemed to be in good spirits and joking with each other. A few minutes later, I heard some unintelligible yelling from the north side of the street. I could not see what was happening because trees and cars on the north side of Q blocked my view, so I walked across the street.

I found a group of neighbors helping a man who had apparently been attacked by the group. We could see some of the teenagers in the distance running east, near the skate park at Rhode Island Ave. They appeared jovial, as if the attack was for fun.

A resident of a nearby home offered the man a seat on her front steps, gave him some water, and helped him treat his scraped wrist. The man called the police, who arrived shortly, and an ambulance came a few minutes later. The man said he was headed toward 14th St when the group crossed Q St to the north side of the street where they quickly approached him. One group member punched him in the face, sending him to the ground where about half of the others in the group continued to hit him while the rest watched. It was NOT a robbery – they did not take anything from him. Neither did they say anything to him prior to the attack.

It's worth reading the whole thing including especially the comments from the locals as well as the victim.  Note that the victim says the police don't return his calls.  The members of the Ruling Class which includes the editors and the police are rarely the victims so they are occupied covering up these acts out of political correctness. 

When they do surface, the excuse is that the police don't take them seriously.  That's the reason given by Dennis Findley of the Virginian Pilot for refusing to report the gang attack on a couple of his staff on the way back from a show.  The police don't follow up because it's too much trouble; besides the perpetrators are often juveniles who are going to be released if they are ever caught. 

Meanwhile the attacks go on and people are either afraid to go out or begin buying guns in record numbers.  Of course, sometimes the hit isn't a sucker punch, sometimes it's a drive-by shooting of a victim picked at random.  

Remember when running in the halls or chewing gum would get you in trouble?  No?  You must be young.

Pastor Marvin Winans carjacked and robbed in Detroit

Pastor Winans said a couple of things to the reporter.

“Not going to be afraid of us, Not going to be afraid of our sons. I’m sadden that it’s come to this. We just have to take a look at ourselves and say this just has to stop.”

Note that the race of the assailants was never specified but you knew who Winans was talking about when he said “us” and “our sons.”

But it won’t stop if – in the immortal words of Attorney General Eric Holder – we remain a “nation of cowards” when it comes to discussing race.

Too bad that most of the cowards are in the press, who are afraid to report gang attacks on their own reporters if the gang is the wrong color. It's almost as if they wanted racial antagonism to increase.  it could be a cure for circulation problems.  Nah, that would be too cynical; I'll just leave it as cowardice.

Metro Squad seeks suspects who gunned down Raytown jogger

Another random act of violence.




From FOX channel 4 in Kansas City:

Stone, 60, was killed while jogging Sunday morning at about 7:20 at 67th and Blue Ridge Blvd. Police suspect the murder could have been a gang initiation or a dare.

On Tuesday police returned to canvass the area to try to find evidence that will lead them to Stone’s killer. About 35 cadets from the police academy assisted.

Several people witnessed Stone’s murder. They told police a dark-colored car driving north on 67th Street passed Stone as he was jogging, and without slowing down, opened fire on him. Witnesses say there were two black men inside the car.

“It was daylight. There were witnesses,” said Thomas Prudden, a Raytown police detective. “But it was such a quick incident and there was nothing to tell you it was going to happen. Somebody driving by, holding a gun outside and shooting and then driving off. You can imagine how hard that is to investigate or get evidence from.”

Not much to go on.

North Carolina: Romney 51%, Obama 43%

Rasmussen poll:

Mitt Romney has moved out to an eight-point lead over President Obama in North Carolina after the two men were virtually tied a month ago.

I don't think that it's anything that Romney is doing. This election has always been and will always be about Barack Obama. Everything Obama does, everything his team tries, is backfiring.

It’s becoming evident that Obama did not run a brilliant campaign in 2008. McCain was running scared.  He and his staff were so intimidated by the fear that they would be called a racist in that campaign that they simply refused to engage with Obama. The only person who tried to fight Obama was Sarah Palin and she was demonized by the Left aided and abetted by McCain’s staff like Steve Schmidt who preferred Obama and hated her. Romney and the new media are not afraid of Obama and Palin is helping the House and Senate elect more Conservative candidates.

New O’Keefe video exposes non-citizens on voter rolls in NC, voter fraud comfort at UNC

Via Daily Caller

Here’s the reason why editorial writers will claim that there’s no evidence of voter fraud. No one ever bothered to determine the extent of voter fraud. Speeding is considered more serious than stealing elections via voter fraud. Liberals like it that way. They just deny that they do it. James O’Keefe is making an outstanding contribution to public service by proving the Liberals are liars about voter fraud.

Autopsy Reveals Trayvon Martin Had Bloody Knuckles When He Died

Say ...

WFTV has confirmed that autopsy results show 17-year-old Trayvon Martin had injuries to his knuckles when he died. The information could support George Zimmerman's claim that Martin beat him up before Zimmerman shot and killed him.

And ...

Zimmerman was diagnosed with a "closed fracture" of his nose, a pair of black eyes, two lacerations to the back of his head and a minor back injury the day after he fatally shot Martin during an alleged altercation.

But ...

WFTV has learned charges against George Zimmerman could be getting more serious. State prosecutors said Zimmerman, a neighborhood watchman, profiled and stalked 17-year-old Trayvon Martin before killing him, so the FBI is now looking into charging him with a hate crime.

Defending yourself against attack when you are a "white Hispanic" and the attacker is a black male who looks like Obama if he had a son is obviously a hate crime. I expect the reporters from the Virginian Pilot to be under investigation for hate crimes committed against the gang of "yoots" that got bruised knuckles when they "interacted" at the Norfolk intersection of  Church and Brambleton.

ABC, the network that told us George Zimmerman was not injured changes its story.

ABC News Exclusive: Zimmerman Medical Report Shows Broken Nose, Lacerations After Trayvon Martin Shooting

A medical report compiled by the family physician of accused Trayvon Martin murderer George Zimmerman and obtained exclusively by ABC News found that Zimmerman was diagnosed with a "closed fracture" of his nose, a pair of black eyes, two lacerations to the back of his head and a minor back injury the day after he fatally shot Martin during an alleged altercation.

Investigators are puzzled how he got injured.

FBI may charge George Zimmerman with hate crime

Of course.

Zimmerman - the "white Hispanic" - is caught in the crossfire of the race war.

Perhaps our impression of the 2008 campaign was mistaken.

James Taranto:

But was the '08 campaign really all that competent? Or was it successful because he was lucky enough to have incompetent opponents?

Make that "opponent" and identify him as the old guy, the "maverick" whose primary constituency was the press until he ran for President.  And don't forget the campaign staff who were too busy stabbing Sarah Palin in the back to run against Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm.
