ABC NEWS -- Finds another witch

One victim was confirmed as the temple's president, 65-year-old Satwant Singh Kaleka who died as he tried to 'knife and tackle' the shooter. More here:

Ack ... I won't say it.

Seven people were shot and killed today at a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis., in what officials are treating as a case of domestic terrorism. 

Though police have not given any details on the identity or motive of the shooter, or released the identities of the victims, sources have told ABC News the shootings are the work of a "white supremacist" or "skinhead." 

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms Special Agent Thomas Ahern said the suspect had tattoos and that authorities were investigating whether he was a "skin head or "white supremacist" as two ABC Sources said. More here:

Oh really?  "Sources said?" Tattoos you say?  White supremacist, you say?  Why, I'll just BET YOU he's a Tea Partier.  LMAO ... they CAN'T SAY IT ... they want to say it but they canna.

They can't say it because this is the same ABC news that told us the Aurora shooter was a (gasp) filthy, disgusting, "Tea Partier"  And they got in big trouble for it ... that's right, people lost their jobs over it ... oh, wait, no they didn't.  I mean, it's not like they committed some unforgivable journalistic sin such as slanting their news coverage in favor of conservatives.

Meanwhile, if this guy is a "white supremacist" then why did he kill the Sikh's?  If he wanted to kill non-whites then why didn't he pick black people?  And aren't the nazi's supposed to hate the juice? (Jews)  Why didn't he find a Jewish Temple if he wanted to base his killing spree on religion?  Hmmm?

The Klown is no great genius jourrrrnalist but has suspicions something besides white superiority is going on here.

Braying jackass offers to save you from yourselves

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) on the Senate Floor: “I believe that the situation we face, Mr. President, is as dangerous as any of the sort of real crises that we talk about – today we had a hearing in the Foreign Relations Committee on the subject of Syria, and we all know what’s happening with respect to Iran, and nuclear weapons and the possibility even of a war. Well, this issue [Global warming} actually is of as significant a level of importance, because it affects life itself on the planet,” From Breitbart:

Right, and let me guess what your answer is ... for me to give up some more of my money (property) and freedom ... right, braying jackass.  Isn't that your answer to ALL "probems?"

I have an idea ... why don't you go to hell.

Also, I love how Dimbulbocrats just LOVE to use the word "planet."  Yes, it sounds so big and covers EVERYTHING.  I don't know about you but when I hear someone use the word "planet" I know they're talking about a serious situation.

Adam Smith, smited CFO

So this former CFO/Treasurer decided to show up at the local Chick-Fil-A for a "free water" and to dole out a tongue lashing to whomever happened to be working at the window... and then to film it... and then to post it on youtube. Well, it turns out that nobody likes a bully. His name is Adam Smith and after his video went viral, the company for which he had been serving as CFO and Treasurer fired him promptly.

TUCSON, AZ--(Marketwire - Aug 2, 2012) - The following is a statement from Vante: Vante regrets the unfortunate events that transpired yesterday in Tucson between our former CFO/Treasurer Adam Smith and an employee at Chick-fil-A. Effective immediately, Mr. Smith is no longer an employee of our company. The actions of Mr. Smith do not reflect our corporate values in any manner. Vante is an equal opportunity company with a diverse workforce, which holds diverse opinions. We respect the right of our employees and all Americans to hold and express their personal opinions, however, we also expect our company officers to behave in a manner commensurate with their position and in a respectful fashion that conveys these values of civility with others. We hope that the general population does not hold Mr. Smith's actions against Vante and its employees.

In a classic case of closing the barn door after the horses got out, he swiftly deleted the video but at least one thoughtful user reuploaded it for him.
Oh and by the way, I'm not sure why it bears mentioning (of course I know exactly why it bears mentioning), but he's not gay.

"I don't know how you live with yourself and work here," he tells the employee at the window. "I don't understand it. This is a horrible corporation with horrible values. You deserve better."

”I’m a nice guy, by the way … totally heterosexual," he continues. "Not a gay in me, I just can’t stand the hate.”

Peaceful Islamists give their version of the "no really" speech

Gunmen shot dead a well-known comedian known for poking fun at Al-Qaeda linked Shebab insurgents in the Somali capital Mogadishu, officials and colleagues said Wednesday.

Abdi Jeylani Malaq Marshale, in his late thirties or early forties, was killed late Tuesday, minutes after leaving Kulmiye radio station, where he worked as drama producer and performer.

"Two men shot and seriously injured Marshale... the comedian was later pronounced dead," said police lieutenant Mohamed Gaal, adding that "unfortunately the assailants escaped."

The shooting of Marshale, who also worked for the London-based Universal TV station and who reported having received death threats on several occasions, is the latest in a string of apparently targeted killings against media workers. More here:

Yes, they'll shut you down if you disagree with them (and actually talk about it.)  Reminds me of Rahm Emanual and Chick-Fil-A.  SHUT 'EM DOWN, RAHM!!

The best way to deal with people like this is to let them be ... leave them alone.  If they bomb your city and kill thousands, just pretend like you deserved it.  That way they'll be sure to leave and never bother you again.

Did you hear about this? (Just kidding, I know you haven't heard)

While NAACP President Benjamin Jealous lashed out at new state laws requiring photo ID for voting, an NAACP executive sits in prison, sentenced for carrying out a massive voter fraud scheme.

In a story ignored by the national media, in April a Tunica County, Miss., jury convicted NAACP official Lessadolla Sowers on 10 counts of fraudulently casting absentee ballots. Sowers is identified on an NAACP website as a member of the Tunica County NAACP Executive Committee.

Sowers received a five-year prison term for each of the 10 counts, but Circuit Court Judge Charles Webster permitted Sowers to serve those terms concurrently, according to the Tunica Times, the only media outlet to cover the sentencing. More here:

LOL, the "NAACP."  When I think of this organization all I can think of is a bunch of black America-hating racists.  My understanding is it used to be a great organization.

No wonder they cry "racist" about voter ID laws.

Dumbass gets geography lesson -- then jail

A former military policeman is facing a federal narcotics rap after he allegedly sought to smuggle several pounds of methamphetamine to Japan in the form of 45 Snickers bars.

Rogelio Harris, 34, was arrested Friday afternoon at Los Angeles International Airport after federal agents discovered the narcotics in his suitcase during a “border search,” according to a felony criminal complaint. Traveling alone, Harris was headed to Tokyo on a Delta Airlines flight (and scheduled to return to L.A. three days later).

One of the seized Snickers bars is pictured in the above U.S. Customs and Border Protection evidence photo (click to enlarge).

Federal agents found the meth-filled candy bars inside a “box with a design printed on the outside suggesting that it contained Snickers candy bars.” When investigators unwrapped one of Snickers bars, they determined that the meth “was actually wrapped inside clear cellophane, which was itself coated in a chocolate-like substance so as to make the contents of the package appear to be a real candy bar.”

There was no tasty nougat, caramel, or peanuts to be found anywhere.

During questioning, Harris told agents that he last year received an “other than honorable discharge” from the Navy after testing positive for marijuana use. He claimed to be “traveling to Japan to visit his girlfriend, who lived in Hong Kong,” according to the felony complaint. When an investigator explained that Hong Kong and Japan were separate countries, Harris replied, “They are?” More here:

What can I add to this?  Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller?

Ha ha, you're not fooling HIM lady - he's a genius

JULY 31--Suspicious that his live-in girlfriend was planning an affair, a Tennessee man confronted the woman after spotting a photo of an unknown guy on her Facebook page, according to a police report.

 Lowell Turpin, 40, “angrily demanded to know who the male was,” reported Anderson County Sheriff’s Department investigators.

Crystal Gray, 38, “replied that it was a picture of Mitt Romney.”

Despite being informed that the man on Gray’s wall was the presumptive Republican presidential candidate (and not some hunky, severely conservative sidepiece), Turpin apparently was not placated. Gray said that he “became upset because she was attempting to communicate with friends through her Facebook account.”

In a subsequent tussle over the laptop, Gray’s hand was injured as she unsuccessfully tried to stop Turpin form smashing the computer against the wall. Gray told deputies that Turpin, pictured in the above mug shot, also punched her in the face during the encounter. More here:

What's the matter, lady?  You couldn't find a brainless troglo-dumbass to date so you picked this guy instead? That's what you get for dating "Democratics."

The Klown gets off track on the Second Amendment

Below are some snippets from this article at Fox News:

Congress passed a 10-year ban on assault-style weapons that expired in 2004, but there has since been no real interest among Capitol Hill lawmakers to reinstitute a ban.

Ok, let's stop right there for a moment. From my point of view, anyone who uses the term "assault rifle" is one of the morons who wants to disarm you.  Oh, they SAY they don't ... but they really do.  They SAY all kinds of things ... and if you'll notice, most of what they say is intended to impact your life by enabling tyranny enacting legislation. 

The president was not specific about what measures he'd like to see enacted when he touched on the issue in a speech to the National Urban League. He affirmed his belief in Americans' right to own guns, but he singled out assault rifles as better suited for the battlefield.

"I believe the Second Amendment guarantees an individual the right to bear arms," he said. "But I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not on the streets of our cities."

Hmmm, there it is again ... the term "assault rifle." What other kinds of rifles are there ... fuzzy bunny, birthday cake, save-the-earth rifles?  Idiots.  What they call an "assault rifle" is just a .22 dressed up to look like a military rifle.  A military rifle is capable of full automatic (i.e. machine gun) where you don't have to keep pulling the trigger to fire another bullet ... but these "assault rifles" are not fully automatic.

Now the thing is, the second amendment was put there so we could fight the government if it became necessary ... that's it.  

They weren't thinking "we better put this in the constitution because the government might want to stop us from hunting," or, "we better put this in the constitution because the government might want to stop us from protecting our home."   No, they put it in there so we could protect ourselves from braying jackasses self-proclaimed geniuses who want to take away our freedom (for our own good, of course,)

So, think ... if they had full automatic weapons back then, do you think they would have excluded them?  I don't.  Of course, I think logically.  You see, they wanted a government which feared the citizenry, not the other way around.

So, according to the article, Justice Antonin Scalia was interviewed on "Fox News Sunday"and had some stuff to say on the topic.

Scalia, one of the high court’s most conservative justices, said on “Fox News Sunday” that the majority opinion in the landmark 2008 case of District of Columbia v. Heller stated the extent of gun ownership “will have to be decided in future cases.”

“We’ll see,” he said.

 

Scalia said exceptions to gun rights were recognized when the Second Amendment was written, including a tort that prohibited people from carrying a “really horrible weapon just to scare people like a head ax or something.”

Now, I have to tell you, as soon as I read that I cracked up ... because, a HEAD AX?  SERIOUSLY? LMAO.   I tell you I laughed until I had to wipe my eyes. 

So I started thinking about this.  I haven't done any research, but this seems to say that at the time the second amendment was written, there was a law prohibiting peeps carrying head-ax's around. Again, I didn't do any research to confirm Justice Scalia's assertion but let's just assume he's correct.  I'll save musing on the philosophy of it for a later time.

Anyway, it started me thinking about head ax's and I Googled images for 'er.

Ok, that's not really what I think of when I hear the term "head ax" (not that the term pops up in my conversations ... ever.)  But ... WTF?  Why the big/long extension?  What are you gonna do, ax-stab someone with that? What is the notch on the handle?  Some sort of grip aid?

I couldn't find anything in Wikipedia under "head ax" but I did find the following here while researching the images:

The most known weapon associated with head hunting of the Filipino tribes is the Head Axe. It is characterized by its specific blade shape with the long rear projection. Beside warfare, It was also used as a multipurpose cutting tool, worked in a very peculiar way: The long rear spike was driven in the ground, holding the axe in place edge up, and the cut object was drawn along the edge.

I still don't understand why this particular ax shape is so good for cutting heads and therefore I don't understand why they call it a head ax.

World, meet Ryan Lochte

“This time,” Ryan Lochte said of his diamond-encrusted grillz teeth, “the diamonds are bigger so I can shine a little more.” 

Since 2004, Lochte has played Robin to Phelps’s Batman in the 200- and 400-meter I.M.s. He finished second to him in both events at the 2007 world championships and qualified behind Phelps in the 200 I.M. at the 2004 and 2008 United States Olympic trials. “I looked up at the scoreboard and they showed the crowd, they showed Michael, and I kind of smiled,” Lochte said.

It should be noted that Lochte was not wearing his diamond-encrusted grillz teeth at the time. That adornment came later, during the awards ceremony, when Lochte received the gold medal after making off with Phelps’s global mark. More here:

Hey Ryan, thanks for "representin'" America with your "grillz."  It makes me so proud.  Asshat.

The Klown is not a jourrrrrnalist ... but has some questions anyway

MISSOURI (KCTV) - At least eight Walmarts across Missouri have been evacuated Friday evening after bomb threats. Two of the stores are in the Kansas City area. Two and a half hours after the threats were called in, police declared the scenes as safe.

The Gladstone, MO, Walmart at 72nd and North Prospect Avenue was evacuated after police got a call of a bomb threat about 6:30 p.m. 

I see, so someone "called the police with a bomb threat?"  Did they dial 911 or did they use another number?

About the same time, the Raytown, MO, Walmart on Missouri Highway 350 near Raytown Road was evacuated for the same reason. Police said someone called in the bomb threat.

"Police said?"  Which police, the same police that received the prior bomb threat?  Again, did they dial 911 or what?

Kansas City, MO, police as well as Olathe police volunteered their bomb and arson K-9 unit to help at the Kansas City area locations. Officers found nothing suspicious and let everyone back inside the big box store about 8:30 p.m.

Media outlets in southern Missouri report that two Walmarts in Christian County have been evacuated due to bomb threats. Those stores are in Nixa and Ozark. Other media outlets are reporting the Walmart in Jefferson City was evacuated as well as the Walmart in St. Peters, near St. Louis. Just before 10 p.m., police confirmed that the Walmart in Piedmont also received a threat.

"Police confirmed?  Which police?  Too much trouble to Google the numbers of the police departments in those other areas?

Jefferson City was evacuated as well as the Walmart in St. Peters, near St. Louis. Just before 10 p.m., police confirmed that the Walmart in Piedmont also received a threat. More here:

Again with the "police confirmed?"

I would want to know whether all these calls came in to 911 which rerouted them or if they all went to the same police station.  In addition to that I would have asked police if they had caller ID on the jackass ... and further if it was the same phone calling in all the threats.

Of course, that's just some of the questions I'd have if I were a genius jourrrrnalist.

At this time, it is unknown if police are investigating the threats as being connected.

Right, because all these bomb threats against Walmart on the same day in the same state could be just a coinkydink  We don't want to jump to any conclusions about them being related, right geniuses?

Seriously, is it any surprise these libs are in a perpetual state of wonder?

Clams are big fans of salt - don't tell Bloomberg

Racism, the libs love talking about it

It's a miracle - insane man regains sanity

SALT LAKE CITY (ABC 4 News) - A citizen with a gun stopped a knife wielding man as he began stabbing people Thursday evening at the downtown Salt Lake City Smith's store.

Police say the suspect purchased a knife inside the store and then turned it into a weapon. Smith's employee Dorothy Espinoza says, "He pulled it out and stood outside the Smiths in the foyer. And just started stabbing people and yelling you killed my people. You killed my people."

Espinoza says, the knife wielding man seriously injured two people. "There is blood all over. One got stabbed in the stomach and got stabbed in the head and held his hands and got stabbed all over the arms."

Then, before the suspect could find another victim - a citizen with a gun stopped the madness. "A guy pulled gun on him and told him to drop his weapon or he would shoot him. So, he dropped his weapon and the people from Smith's grabbed him." More here:

Gee, I sure hope the insane knife-man wasn't traumatized, don't you?  I'm sure the libs will see to it that he gets the help he needs so he can be released soon to become a productive member of society.  Too bad we can't release them all in San Francisco or New York City so they can get their starts with understanding and compassionate people ... who don't carry guns.

"Scientists" don't realize ... nobody believes in global warming

Strong summer thunderstorms that pump water high into the upper atmosphere pose a threat to the protective ozone layer over the United States, researchers said on Thursday, drawing one of the first links between climate change and ozone loss over populated areas.

In a study published online by the journal Science, Harvard University scientists reported that some storms send water vapor miles into the stratosphere — which is normally drier than a desert — and showed how such events could rapidly set off ozone-destroying reactions with chemicals that remain in the atmosphere from CFCs, refrigerant gases that are now banned.

The risk of ozone damage, scientists said, could increase if global warming leads to more such storms. More here:

Ha ha, they think we still believe in global warming.  Nice try, morons ... now get a real job because, as fast as I can, I'm voting for people who will slap your hand out of my wallet.

I love how these people use the government to get their hands on my money ... and then use my money to convince the government they need MORE of my money.  And the funny part is, no matter how much they get, it's never enough, is it?

Idiot libs find another problem unsolvable

SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) – Bay Area Rapid Transit users have all experienced it; escalators that are down at their station. But what’s really behind the maintenance issues for the transit agency?

Officials said one of the main issues is the copious amounts of human excrement found in the escalator’s works, gumming up the wheels and gears. The bottom of BART’s stairwells often act as prime spots for the homeless to take shelter at night and in many cases, relieve themselves.

Last month, work crews opened up the broken BART escalator at San Francisco’s Civic Center Station and found so much human waste that they had to call in a hazardous-materials team.

BART police said there is little they can do about the problem as officers have to witness someone in the act to issue a citation. More here:

Right ... "nothing  we can do."  

Pay attention here folks because there are some problems the libs just cannot solve ... and it looks like "dirtbags shitting on their escalators" is one of them.  Yes, that and arresting illegal aliens are among the myriad problems that libs cannot fathom ... and it's funny too because they usually want to solve EVERYTHING ... you know, like how much salt you eat

Also, a citation?   What about an arrest for destruction of public property?  Oh, never mind, I forgot, logic is confusing to liberals.

Gasp, Hollywood dumbass overestimates his influence

Weinstein, an avid Obama supporter, cites lack of gun control as the real culprit behind the Colorado theater shooting and says it's time for Hollywood to examine its part in perpetuating real-life events. Harvey Weinstein -- the man behind some of the most violent movies to ever hit the big screen -- says it's time for Hollywood to address how violence in movies influences people.

"I think as filmmakers we should sit down -- the Marty Scorseses, the Quentin Tarantinos and hopefully all of us who deal in violence in movies -- and discuss our role in that," Weinstein said. 

This guy cracks me up. He thinks he is responsible for violence because movies are violent. What about books? What about plays? What about campfire stories? Don't think about that. It might take away from the self-important attitude of some Hollywood crapstain. 

But Weinstein -- an avid supporter of President Obama -- suggested the No. 1 culprit is the lack of gun control and said it is time for politicians to "put up or shut up" on the issue. 

Hey, Weintstein, bite my ass. Who are YOU to steal my freedom? It's never enough for jackasses like you. First you want to implement a few "laws" to control guns. Later you are mystified to learn that criminals disregard the laws. So what's your answer? More gun control. Idiot.

It may interest you to know that Aurora (i.e. hippieville) has plenty of gun laws ... so many in fact that nobody in the movie theater had a gun ... except the bad guy. So, nice job, gun-control morons. 

"Violence on the screen has increased tenfold. It's almost pornographic. In fact, it is pornographic. Video games are violent, too. It's all out of control. I can see where it would drive somebody crazy," Bogdanovich said. More here:

Out of control?  Out of WHOSE control?  Yours?  Mine? Gotta luv libs, they have a need to "control" everything.

Speaking for myself, oftentimes the violence I see in movies is so outrageous I have to stop watching the show ... not because I can't take the violence, it's because it's just so ridiculous that I can no longer take the movie seriously. I'm thinking "what mental midget can still enjoy the show after this bit of gratuitous life wasting?"

So go ahead, Mr Weinstein, have your big pow-wow with your big power-broker Hollywood friends. See if anyone gives a shit.  And stop trying to present a "young/hip" attitude by only shaving every few days.  Seriously, stop flailing ... take a shave ... and while you're shaving, look at yourself in the mirror and think of ways you can stop inflicting your idiocy on me. Thank you.

Strippers prepare for Republicans

With high-rolling Republicans flooding into Tampa Bay, Fla., this August for the party's convention, local strip club owners hope many of them spill into their champagne rooms.

The Tampa Bay area boasts more than 40 clubs. Some expect their business to more than quadruple during the massive, four-day Republican National Convention, WFLA-TV reported.

To get a leg up on the competition, some are adding special attractions to help entice GOP bigs.

So while top Republicans work the conventioneers during the day, a Sarah Palin doppelganger will be working the same crowd at night. A strip club called Thee DollHouse, which got a $1 million facelift in advance of the big event, has hired a look-alike - sporting glasses and her trademark updo - to entertain hard-working Republicans after-hours. More here:

It occurs to me that strip clubs everywhere (not just Tampa) could capitalize on this idea.

Idiot mayor of Chicago tries to punish free speech

This Thursday, July 19, 2012 photo shows a Chick-fil-A fast food restaurant in Atlanta. Gay rights advocates were surprised Thursday that the president of the Atlanta-based chain has taken a public position against same-sex marriage. Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathy said this week that his privately owned company is "guilty as charged" in support of what he called the biblical definition of the family unit. (AP Photo/Mike Stewart)

The anti-gay views openly espoused by the president of a fast food chain specializing in chicken sandwiches have run afoul of Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a local alderman, who are determined to block Chick-fil-A from expanding in Chicago.

Excuse me?  Isn't this the government punishing someone for their viewpoint ... for exercising free speech?

I mean, I can understand if the private sector wanted to punish Chik-fil-A by not shopping there or protesting etc ... but I cannot accept the government going after people for expressing a point of view.  Something tells me there's something in the constitution about this.

I guess nobody should be surprised though.  To me, finding out someone who was in Obama's White House staff is a communist with tyrannical tendencies is about as surprising as finding out about Pavlov's dogs salivating, capisce?

I sure hope Chik-fil-A doesn't sue the everloving crap out of Chicago, don't you? 

Liberals have a tough time learning

Shaun Tudor subjected a 10-year-old boy to a terrifying sexual assault, just minutes after being released from a secure unit

A clinical psychologist killed herself in a burning car after blaming herself when one of her patients sexually assaulted a ten-year-old boy, an inquest has heard.

Lisa Derriscott “couldn’t live with herself” after being told that convicted paedophile Shaun Tudor had committed the attack whilst on temporary, unsupervised release from his secure unit.

The 33-year-old doctor was a member of a large team that had approved Tudor’s two hour release.

When told of the assault, Dr Derriscott “obsessed” over it and became "quiet, distressed and withdrawn", the inquest heard.

Although the decision to release Tudor was not hers alone, she had quickly blamed herself and spent hours analysing her notes on the case to determine whether or not more could have been done.

Andrew Whittle, Dr Derriscott’s partner, said she had blamed herself for what happened "repeatedly" and had also talked of "not being able to live with herself" and "wanting to go to sleep and not wake up".

Her body was found on August 3 last year, two weeks after the attack.

The following day, Tudor, 43, pleaded guilty to attempted rape and sexual assault at Nottingham Crown Court.

He was jailed indefinitely and the judge said that it was probable he would never be regarded as safe enough to be freed. More here:

Really, judge?  Are you really getting your feet in cement here?  "Probable."  LMAO.

Well, at least this hadn't happened before, right?  Wait, WHAT?  It happened before?  With the same guy?

The sex offender, 43, who had previously assaulted a child while on leave from a different secure unit, was locked up indefinitely at Nottingham Crown Court. From here:

Gee, that's funny, the first article didn't mention that part.  I wonder why a Klown (with almost average intelligence) can find it by accident but it totally eludes a professional and objective jourrrrnalist.  How does that happen ... over and over and over again?

When are people going to come to the conclusion that psychologists are not gods?  Seems to me they're mostly full of shit ... and Tom Cruise agrees with me, soooo ....

Seriously though, I had some respect for psychology when I was a kid ... but it sort of ended when I found out how amazed they were that they could make Pavlov's dogs salivate by ringing a bell ... after they had been ringing the bell and then feeding them.  Who could have predicted this result?

And yet the libs are/were completely amazed by this and STILL teach about it in first year psych courses.  And whenever they discuss this great and significant discovery they all nod knowingly, puff on their pipes, and rub the patches on the elbows of their sport coats ... that's how you can tell they are geniuses.

So back to the judge who said that it was probable he would never be regarded as safe enough to be freed ... "probable." 

These days people are SO AFRAID to be "wrong" that they couch their language.  They use terms that aren't really specific so that a lawyer can't sue them later.  Ever notice how useless  "important" people do that?  That's why you get a bunch of non-sensical, double-talking crap out of public officials all the time. 

Lawyers have done so MUCH for the good of our society, don't you think?  I hope one day they get the recognition they so very richly deserve.

Watch a Liberal Convert to Conservatism Right Before Your Eyes

It happens at the 2:14 mark. Liberals would call this "being motivated primarily by fear". People with a brain would call this "common sense".
