How come?

M$M created the Tea Party, they are an astroturf group funded by the Koch brothers as people were ashamed of being GOP!

Their owners, all 5 or 6 of them, want the Koch agenda enacted, and they were created to stymie Obama's plans, discredit him, make him 'fail,' and to stop the sunsetting of the Bush tax cuts.

No matter how loathesome or criminal their candidates were in 2010, they pushed GOP voters to think they'd been absolved of their crimes by re-branding. They are a brand and nothing else.

This woman and government hating murderer, oh, meh! They're for that too.

The suppression of women world wide is the tool of empire. Not just here, but by ISIS itself. But the media does a shell game to point the finger at them. They are what the fundies plan for us, and the media is desensitizing us all kinds of horrors.

But then they always have.

The 'GOP war on women' and what is enacted by ISIS is never seriously looked at. Nor is the oppression of women in other nations and sex slave addressed. Much less racism,. the push more racist memes than the KKK, and are more insidous.

Because those are crimes that will never be spoken of seriously by the paid shills of media owners. They will not allow the reasons behind this are happening to get out and make people think. They don't care about oppression, if the money keeps on rolling in.

The shooter was neither a POC or an unpopular religion. That is, he is white and presumed a Christian. So the media's 'War on Christianity' is a sham, when they refuse to admit the war on black Christians in Charleston and since then. Where are the cries of oppression?

*crickets*

Eff the lying media that edits the words of Obama, talks over him and lies about him! He noticed. Check as the media laughter dies down:



Thought you needed a laugh. The only better part was Luthor the Anger Translator. And last year when he called Fox a shadowy Koch front group and had his staff removed the word News from their name placard. They had hissy fit over it the next day on the air.

Hey. JAG, about this and O'Malley:

The narrative pushed by the OP, et al, is falling apart quickly:

UPDATE: Clinton NOT under "criminal investigation" for emails

@JohnJHarwood: Justice Dept official says "referral" related to Hillary Clinton's email is NOT for a criminal investigation - contradicting earlier reports

New York Times Adds A 64-Word Correction To Its Clinton Email Story

Correction: July 24, 2015

An earlier version of this article and an earlier headline, ​using information from senior government officials, misstated the nature of the referral to the Justice Department regarding Hillary Clinton’s personal email account while she was secretary of state. The referral addressed the potential compromise of classified information in connection with that personal email account. It did not specifically request an investigation into Mrs. Clinton.

DOJ: No, We Weren't Asked To Launch A Criminal Probe Into Clinton's Emails

The Evil Clinton drooling should be over by now, but it's been hardwired since Rush began it back in the 1990s to give Newt that Republican majority. Yes, I remember all of that. Wait, let me offer them a virtual hanky to wipe it off their chin... See, much better. I might even take them seriously now... NOT.

As far as O'Malley, I think he handled it all very well. After his gaffe, he kept on listening. He didn't lose his cool at BLM, he was taking in a new reality, not hiding from it all. And he seems to have his principles down and not running from them. I can see and hear a bit of the hope and faith of Obama in him, and that is heartening to me. Still, he's not beating the lecturn with a shoe, and that appears to be all that satisfies some people. I am a little surprised O'Malley's not doing well in the polls. And if he calls Clinton out, fine by me. But this other stuff... Not buying it.

If learning is called hating white people, sorry to say, they're just hating themselves. Getting along with others is Survival 101. The white people doing this kind of talk are shooting themselves, and the aware white people in the foot. Heck, they may kneecap of the white people if they keep on hanging onto that.

BLM is merely reporting a 'crime in process' that needs some very hard action. The only thing I think makes it hard for O'Malley or Clinton, is they speak in terms of experience in getting things done, which is harder not to let infuse one's dialogue.

I'm going to let what bravenak posted show the urgency of the crime in process, from BLM:

252. Maybe delete and apologize for your 'race nagging' comment. We are dying and in jail.

It is not nagging. We are fighting for our lives and our childrens lives. How is that nagging? It is a demand to be treated fairly and equally and to be seen. Look at me. Notice my race. It affect me everyday. Why not just join our call and not feel nagged, but instead feel called to action?


Black Lives Matter:

This is a CALL TO ACTION TO PROGRESSIVES!!!SOS!!!!SOS!!! MAYDAY MAYDAY, WE'RE SCARED TO LEAVE OUR
HOMES AND THE COPS CAN JUST COME IN AND KILL US, HELP HELP HELP!! OUR HUSBANDS ARE IN JAIL AND OUR KIDS ARE POOR, WE'RE SCARED!!


To that you say: Race naggers!!! I think that was a terribly unfeeling and mean response. It saddens me.

Format edited by me. Probably the most poweful call to action for 'progressives' and 'liberals' I have ever seen. That is what the Democratic Party is supposed to be about, not what is going on here. Anti-Democratic Party?

And no, HRC isn't going to jail!

Barney Frank got in trouble with this quote:

Understand that the more deeply you hold your ideals, the more you are morally obligated to be pragmatic... Idealism without pragmatism is just a way to flatter your ego.

Docile now? I think not. The adage, 'Still waters run deep,' isn't the half of it:

Must I at length the Sword of Justice draw?
Oh curst Effects of necessary Law!
How ill my Fear they by my Mercy scan,
Beware the Fury of a Patient Man.
