Myriad examples of the tolerant left.

Some of my favorite highlights: "Here, I'll give you a copy of the constitution." "That's okay, I know it in my heart." "Really? What's the first line." But she suddenly got really busy doing something else. Also, where the overweight, under-styled Lib starts arguing and stumbles upon a chant so awesome he can't stop saying it, "Unions aren't the problem... you're the problem... you're the problem.... YOU'RE THE PROBLEM YOU'RE THE PROBLEM YOU'RE THE PROBLEM."

A tale of two stories

Ever feel like the halfwits in the media aren't giving you the whole story?  Yes, that's what I thought.  But, they would never do that, right?

Here is a story told in two different ways.  See if you can tell which story is told by a journalist and which is told by a jourrrrnalist.

Note: This I just found this pic on the web.  It's not a pic of the swan attack in this story, it's just a random swan attack.

DES PLAINES, Ill. (CBS) – A man who neighbors say was devoted to caring for the swans of a Des Plaines area apartment complex might have paid for that devotion with his life. 

Devoted, you say?

CBS 2′s Mike Puccinelli has the story of a Villa Park man who died in what witnesses say was a freak incident. Early Saturday, Anthony Hensley, 37, was in a kayak on a pond at an apartment complex in the 9300 block of Bay Colony Drive in an unincorporated area of Cook County near Des Plaines, checking on swans that were kept at the pond to keep geese away. 

And why was he there?

 It was Hensley’ job to care for the swans at the Bay Colony Drive apartment complex near Des Plaines, but Saturday morning something went wrong, and there was an altercation with at least one of the large birds. More here:

I see.  Soooooo, part "devotion" and part "I get paid for it?" Is that possible?

Meanwhile, who needs to get in a kayak to "check on swans?"  Answer: nobody.  My guess is he just wanted to go commune with them and check on their eggs etc ... because, in his view, the swans loved him and wanted him to share in their family's joy.

OK -- here's another version of the story from a different reporter.

North Maine Fire Department responded about 6:59 a.m. Saturday to a report of a drowning victim at 9386 Bay Colony Drive. Emergency responders received a report that a man and a dog were in a boat when the dog jumped into the water, and a man jumped into the pond after the dog. A citizen spotter helped rescuers locate where the man went under the surface on the south side of the pond.

Divers and firefighters from Glenview, Park Ridge, Prospect Heights, Long Grove and Northbrook with sidescan sonar equipment responded to the scene. Wilmette also responded with a sonar tech.

The male victim, identified as Anthony Hensley, 37, was recovered from the pond at about 7:49 a.m. and transported with advanced life support, including CPR, by Niles firefighter/paramedics to Lutheran General Hospital. He was pronounced dead at 8:16 a.m. Saturday.

Anthony Hensley of Villa Park was apparently working for a Goose Control company, and was working on geese removal at the Bay Colony pond. Investigators suspect that a swan or a group of swans attacked Hensley when his kayak moved too close to their nest.

Hmmm, no mention of his devotion here.  They must have forgotten that part or something.

Stupid republican drops f-bomb on live tv

LOL.  What a dumb republican.  Now the lefties are going to be screaming bloody murder and calling for his resignation ... right?

Now, if this had been a lefty, there would be no outrage at all ... none.  You know why?  Because republicans don't raise hell over issues like this.  We're more worried about the idiot-libs democratics going through our economy like a liberal through tax money.

There's more interesting tidbits to their conversation in a transcript here:

WOMBAT here. There's a bit more to the story...

In a blooper that is as hilarious as it increasingly becomes painful, it slowly dawns on Beckel what actually happened, as Hannity insists he apologize and Beckel, after saying he won’t several times, finally realizes the cameras are actually rolling. When he finally figured it out, he told Hannity to “run your show better,” then covered his head in shame and refused to speak, other than to say “I’m going to be fired.”

 The complete video (including parts omitted above):

This guy has balls ... I think

So a guy tries out for the Denver Broncos cheerleading squad.  Yes, that's right ... a male.

So, if you're like me (cynical profiling homophobe) right away you're thinking, "this guy MUST be gay."  And you're probably thinking "he's gotta be jumping and prancing around like a fairy" (yes, you know ... a "must watch" video.)

Ha ha ... stop jumping to conclusions you politically incorrect jackass. More here:

Justice system? Or "Stupidity system?

Zimmerman was taken into custody earlier Wednesday on second-degree murder charges in the teen's death. 

Corey said the decision to bring charges was based on the facts and the law, declaring: "We do not prosecute by public pressure or by petition." 

When asked by Local 6 reporter Tony Pipitone what specific evidence was uncovered to bring the charges against Zimmerman, 

Corey said she wouldn't discuss details about the case. "That will be in court, detailed evidence -- that's why we try cases in court," Corey said. "That would be commenting on the facts of the case, and we are not going to do that at this time." More here:

I assume, if she answered, she'd try to tell the truth ... the facts as she believes them to be. Why can't she "comment on the facts of the case?"  Ever wonder why?

What kind of "justice system" do we have when the litigants can't "comment on the facts of the case?"  What do they stand to gain (or lose.)  More importantly, WHY do they stand to gain or lose just because they tell the truth?  Why would the truth hurt anyone?

I think our "justice system" is in need of a major overhaul.

Those rich arabs ... so much smarter than Americans

 Mr Big: Qatar's leader Sheik Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani 

Qatar, the richest nation on earth, is also the fattest with half of all adults obese and 17 per cent of the population suffering from diabetes. 

Richest nation on earth, you say? 

By comparison America, which is often assumed to be the fattest, looks positively slim with a third of adults obese and eight per cent diabetic. 

And why is America "assumed to be the fattest?" I think you can answer that yourself if you think about it. Hint: Think (baaaa-bleat) "media." 

Out of a population of 1.7million, just 250,000 are native Qataris, who, in the space of just two generations have switched from a tribal existence to living in air conditioned villas being waited on by armies of servants.

In the space of just two generations, you say?

The tiny Arab state, with its vast supplies of oil and natural gas, became the richest nation in the world last year as measured by per capita gross domestic product. More here: 

So their oil is bringing them wealth and luxury. 

I wonder where their "environmentalists" are? 

Why aren't "environmentalists" over there blocking every inch of progress possible like they do in the United States? Oh, that's right, over there they don't have the standing to be able to sue in court ... on behalf of the public, of course. 

Nor do they have an "environmental protection" agency ... paid for by their citizens ... which is blocking and suing their productive companies every five seconds. 

Keep voting for "Democratics," folks. They are geniuses.

Only slightly-biased news reporting from our friends at the NFM (Non Fox Media).

Emphasis mine.

Trayvon Martin through the eyes of the NFM.

George Zimmerman has been charged with second degree murder in the shooting death of unarmed (Did you catch that? He was unarmed.) Florida teenager (Did you catch that? He was a teenager. Poor thing. A child.) Trayvon Martin, says prosecutor Angela Corey.

Zimmerman has surrendered (NPR reports that he was arrested.) to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, his new lawyer, Mark O'Mara, told CNN legal analyst Mark NeJame.

Martin, 17, was killed February 26 as he (among other things that will go largely ignored by all but the full-story news venues.) returned to his father's fiancee's house in Sanford, Florida, after picking up candy (That's right- candy- like what you can easily take from a baby. Poor thing.) and an iced tea at a nearby convenience store.

Zimmerman, a 28-year-old neighborhood watch volunteer, says he shot Martin in self-defense.

The case has drawn comments from President Obama and the United Nations, led to protest marches in cities and campuses around the country, and sparked a nationwide debate about race in America (Re-sparked is more like it. Liberals never ever want to do away with racism. If we treated minorities like equals, Liberals would blow a gasket because "don't you get it? They need our help! By holding them to the same standard as everyone else, you're not giving them a chance!" Of course when you hold people up to the same standard, they'll almost universally meet and exceed your expectations.) and Florida's "stand your ground" law, which allows the use of deadly force by anyone who feels a reasonable threat of death or serious injury. (The alternative law states that you must retreat if you can do so safely. You know- leave the criminals to us. We, the courts and the penal system will handle everything. You can trust us- everything will be fine. Now run along now. No serously, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!) Readings of the law are crucial to a prosecution, Conway said (No earlier mention of Conway in this article. I guess you're just supposed to know who he/she is. Also, that sentence doesn't seem to be particularly worthwhile anyway. Maybe the author had a minimum word count requirement.).

The six weeks between Martin’s death and the announcement that Zimmerman would face charges led critics to list Martin along civil rights martyrs slain in the pursuit of racial justice. (Again, there's no proof or evidence that Zimmerman was a racist nor that he had profiled Martin because of his race. However, if you're going to advance a baseless cause, you need your martyrs. They'll preach that they want to ensure that "nobody ever has to die due to _______ again" but if that happened, they wouldn't have anything to do with all their idle time so they ensure it will never happen.)

Zimmerman’s supporters have sought, in turn, to portray him as a symbol of an essential American character, the community protector who risks his own safety to help his neighbors. (I'll take their word for it on this one since I haven't heard anything about that).

The news that Zimmerman would be charged came shortly after the Rev. Al Sharpton and the Martin family attorney called for the public to remain peaceful whatever the decision of the special prosecutor. (Well I don't know much, but if Rev. Al Sharpton is involved, there'll be no inciting racial hatred, nossir.)

From CNN.

Coming to the US soon (stop these cavemen now)

Those who understand complexity see this as "literal".

I shall make bold the parts I thought were hysterical.

3M was so sure their Security Glass was unbreakable, they put a large stack of cash behind it and shoved it in a bus stop. Actually, it was only $500 of real currency stacked on top of fake money, and people could only use their feet to try to break it. A security guard was present to make sure no one broke the rules and that people couldn't get to keep the money if they broke it.

Please allow me to iterate, "3M was so sure that their Security Glass was unbreakable". Just exactly how sure were they?  Seems to me they only slightly trusted it. Seems to me that you don't want this type of glass protecting anything that actually needs protecting.

Of course the lib author of the above commentary still somehow and mysteriously found this to be "impressive". You know- because of the 30 foot head start double-footed kick. Anyone know knows anything about human physiology knows that after 10 feet, you actually slow down so those extra 20 feet are really just for impressing friends at cocktail parties. Friends who don't understand physics/aren't really paying attention anyway.

More Lib logic

Objective jourrrrnalist fails to see the ironing (libs are blind to the ironing)

 Members of the National Socialist Movement during a patrol on the US-Mexico border in January

Neo-Nazis are currently conducting heavily armed patrols in and around Sanford, Florida and are "prepared" for violence in the case of a race riot. The patrols are to protect "white citizens in the area who are concerned for their safety" in the wake of the Trayvon Martin shooting last month, says Commander Jeff Schoep of the National Socialist Movement. "We are not advocating any type of violence or attacks on anybody, but we are prepared for it," he says. "We are not the type of white people who are going to be walked all over."

Because nothing diffuses racial tension like gun-toting racial separatists patrolling an already on-edge community. More here:

 

Well, very interesting.  My sarcasm detector blew a circuit board when I read that second paragraph. I mean, since WHEN has the media in this country cared about "diffusing racial tension?"  I'll tell you when ... NEVER.

All the media does is blow "racial tension" out of proportion ... every ... single ... chance they get.  That's right ... and then they step back and write about how we all need to get along ... jackasses.

I'm going to step out on a limb and say the media is jealous.  They can't believe other peeps are horning in on their heretofore exclusive territory.

"Democratic" senator says give money to envronmentalists or die

Sen. Dick Durbin reacts to the tornadoes in Dallas, Texas earlier this week. Durbin calls for more laws regulating carbon output while he sends a dire warning that we must convert to hybrid cars or lose our life. Durbin says we must spend money now to fix the problem.

Ha, the Democratic's answer to everything ... "give us more of your freedom and money and we'll fix everything."

Also ... I thought they told us that "weather isn't climate."  I thought they said we'd be up to our wind gages in extra hurricanes for eight out of the last ten years.  Didn't they?  Yes, I think they did.  Instead, the pattern has been sort of ho-hum.  

So is Little Dick Durbin out there calling for the repeal of any of these idiot environmental laws?  Answer: No. Does the average idiot lib find this the slightest bit incongruous?  Answer: No.

"It's your money or your life," he said a press conference. "We are either going to dedicate ourselves to a cleaner, more livable planet and accept the initial investment necessary or we're going to pay a heavier price in terms of loss of human life, damage and costs associated with it."

LOL.  Yes.  Little Dick Durbin from Illinois ... Lincoln would be so proud, don't you think?  Little Dick wants you to give money to his environmental buddies and he'll do anything ... I SAID ANYTHING ... to make it happen.  

But seriously, Little-Dick ... "It's your money or your life?"  What's the matter you idiot "Democratic?"  Did you run into a wall while running on the hyperbole track?

This is what I mean when I say a "Democratic" is invulnerable to humiliation.  It's as if they forget about their statements right after saying them.  I suppose the media can't be bothered to show them for the fools they are every time they make a false prediction ... after all, that's all the media would be doing, day after day, after day.  See how accurate and helpful boring that would be?

These "Dumbocratic" idiots can't contain themselves.  They always have to escalate things to some wild-ass concept so far removed from reality that only idiot libs their thoroughly brainwashed sheep will buy it.

Honestly, how is this crapstain not in federal prison?  If any corporate officer in the private sector tried Durbin's tricks (fiduciary malfeasance) and bankrupted the investors, they'd be in federal prison. More here:

This makes sense

"Democratic" dumbasses sure hate voter ID laws

Democratic officials Wednesday launched a two-pronged attack on states with new laws requiring identification before voting, the highlight being a call to boycott Coke, Walmart and others that back a leading organization pushing for voter ID laws. 

 “We are organizing. We are not agonizing,” said Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., who is leading a parallel Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s effort to get government identification into the hands of the estimated 2-3 million Democrats who don’t have one. “We have staffed up,” he said. More here:

Yeow - someone must have dropped a hat -- the "Democratics" are boycotting again.

Too bad Clyburn and the "Democratics"don't produce a damn thing ... except racial animosity of course.  Otherwise we could boycott their asses.

Obama - Just saying what he thinks

LMAO @ this hypocritical braying jackass ... aka, idiot-lib.

He refers to the Supreme Court as "an "unelected group of people."  He CLEARLY thinks they should have no say-so in whether this "duly constituted and passed law" is constitutional or not.

I mean, he wants to pass any law he likes and nobody should be able to object.

Unfortunately for dumbass Obama, the framers of our constitution saw tyrants him coming way back then. 

That's why they put limits on the power of government ... so asshats like Obama don't come along (with their strong majorities) and steal your freedom with a simple vote ... for your own good, of course.

Well, you heard him. And yet ... where is the first place an idiot-lib goes when there is a law they don't like? That's right, the courts. 

And they sue like hell to get the law overturned. 

Perhaps you'll recall the recent brouhaha in Arizona with their immigration law? How about that California marriage law? Remember those? The libs/Obama couldn't get their legal teams there fast enough. You know why? Because they were hell bent on overturning a "duly constituted and passed law," that's why.

And another thing ... at the 28-seccond mark he states the law passed with a "strong majority." And what was the "strong majority?" Shall we check the actual votes?

The house passed it 219-212 with ALL Republicans voting against (joined by 34 Democrats voting against.) That's 50.3% to 48.7%.

Does that fit YOUR understanding of "a strong majority?"

The Senate majority was higher (60-39) but again, ZERO Republicans voted for it.

Never mind that though ... it was a "strong majority" according to Obama. And he thinks a "strong majority" should rule and the court should uphold his liberty-stealing horseshit.

No question the court has upheld some idiocy in the past. Dred Scott? Fugitive slave law? Wickard vs Fulburn? I could go on and on ... but, you know, I'm talking about other "duly constituted and passed laws ... no doubt with strong majorities."  Was it right for them to uphold those laws Obama?  If not, why not?

In conclusion let me just say this ... shut up Obama, you braying jackass ... shut up and leave us alone ... how would that be? Too much to ask?
