Of course, according to the ever post-racial Shirley Sherrod, this might as well be a KKKlan mobile.

Note to other “post-racial” racists: People don’t object to His Presidency because Obama is black. They oppose Obama because he is red.

Loyola University in Chicago refused to allow Karl Rove to speak on campus this fall. University officials said it was due to their tax status but they have allowed liberal speakers on campus in the past.

Not only have they allowed liberals to speak there in the past, they have let radical leftists hold reunions on their campus. Below is a clip of SDS radicals holding an event at Loyola University.

Double standard much?

We have two words for them: Eason Jordan.

You remember Eason don’t you? He was the CNN producer who admitted to broadcasting Saddam Hussein’s talking points as news, with NO disclaimer that what was being disseminated was regime propaganda. CNN did this for years so that they could maintain their precious valuable access.

Did that lead to a crackdown on cable news journalists and producers?

CNN is just about the last organization that should be calling for a crackdown of any kind.

For example, the comment below was just left on our clip Reid Supporters Throw Eggs And Assault Andrew Breitbart:

VanGoghsEar1890

Give Andrew a break. His father committed suicide before going to trial for child molestation ( which included Andrew, who couldn’t go to sleep until he finished his homework and his dad busted a nut in his mouth ), and his mom had to turn tricks to support the family. One day he wasn’t feeling well enough to go to figure skating practice, and he arrived home early only to find his mom in bed with 8 black men. So just pause before you call someone a sleazy racist, egg sucking, lying lunatic.

This is who is judging Andrew Breitbart?

UPDATE:

And now this death threat fresh in from the YouTube Sewer:

taosimplicity has made a comment on Is Andrew Breitbart Breaking Down?:

Breitfart deserves to die. Any takers? Any of you east coaster liberal elitists to good to serve up a can of whoopass to someone who REALLY deserves to die? (sound of crickets from the pussies) Too bad we have no passionate convictions that we’re willing to die for. It’s really sad that the worst are filled with passionate convictions like Breitart.

Representative Michelle Bachmann filed the paperwork late last week, and the approval was granted almost immediately:

They will be holding their first meeting tomorrow at 9am Eastern, followed by a 10am Press conference.

Response from the Left has been about what you might expect. Steny Hoyer took the opportunity to repeat the race-libel against the Tea Party:

“The Tea Party per se I don’t think is racist.”

“There are obviously, as I said on Sunday, I have seen some virulent racist tracks which I believe are harmful to the public discourse and inconsistent with Americans values. You would have to ask the Tea Party whether they agree with those or not. I mean I don’t know who the tea party is number one. You know, the answer to that question is I think that Joe Biden essentially said the same thing in a different, slightly different way. I don’t have any reason to believe the Tea Party itself is racist.”

When asked his feelings about the newly formed tea party caucus he said, “We’ll see how many of the Republicans join the Tea Party Caucus and see whether or not they want to adopt the Tea Party Agenda.”

There are also voices of caution from within Tea Party circles who do not want to see the Tea Party become an extension of the Republican party. Confidential sources, however, have told me that Mitch McConnell has quietly been traveling around the country raising money against potential Tea Party candidates, and Michael Steele has been almost silent in the face of race-libel charges from elected Democrats and the NAACP, so I don’t think there is much to worry about on that front.

Libertarians and Conservatives in the Tea Party should embrace this caucus for a number of reasons. First of all, even though Bachmann’s office denies this, this caucus could prove to be a formidable rival to the Congressional Progressive Caucus. More importantly though, the next time Democrats and their media organs label the Tea Party as racist, by extension they will be calling identifiable members of congress racists, too. It’s one thing for these race traffickers to ruin the lives and reputations of average plebeians, but they might hesitate to do the same to elected officials.

The other upside here is that now the Tea Party will know exactly which elected officials actually support the Tea Party Movement, and which ones only pay lip service.

The Caucus has already attracted several members:

• GOP Conference Chairman Mike Pence (R-IN)
• NRCC Chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX)
• Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI) — the ranking member on the Select Committee on Intelligence who is also running for governor of Michigan.

First it’s tangled in the trial of an ex-governor, then it loses a major Supreme Court gun ban case, and now, as if the Windy City needed another blow, a new report is out saying heroin use has become as thick in the Chicago area as deep dish pizza.

Researchers from Roosevelt University released the study Monday, which cites as part of its evidence a sharp increase to 24,000 people admitted to emergency wards for problems related to using smack. Chicagoland now has the highest number of any metropolitan area in this category.

How’s that War On Drugs working out for us? There can be no doubt that driving these people into the horrors of the black market is what really caused their overdoses. Who knows what is in the drugs they buy. Who knows where they go to get it or use it.

Unfortunately most people don’t give a crap, as long as it isn’t their child, or sister, or uncle who is doing the overdosing.

July 12 (Reuters) – Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said on Monday that Iran was moving closer to having the potential to create nuclear weapons.

What an idiot. He obviously didn’t read the Huffington Post back in 2007:

An explosive new U.S. intelligence report has concluded that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003. Read below for statements on the report from top Democrats:

Senator Harry Reid: “Today this nation’s senior intelligence analysts concluded that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003, directly challenging some of this Administration’s alarming rhetoric about the threat posed by Iran.”

Keep reading here.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi: “While we should harbor no illusions about the intentions of some Iranian leaders, the new Iran NIE suggests there is time for a new policy toward Iran that deters it from restarting its nuclear program while also improving relations overall.”

Keep reading here.

Senator Hillary Clinton: “The new declassified key judgments of the Iran NIE expose the latest effort by the Bush administration to distort intelligence to pursue its ideological ends.”

Keep reading here.

Senator John Edwards: “The new National Intelligence Estimate shows that George Bush and Dick Cheney’s rush to war with Iran is, in fact, a rush to war.”

Keep reading here.

Senator Chris Dodd: “The NIE on Iran contains some very important findings by the intelligence community. Taken together these findings make a strong case for pursuing robust diplomacy to resolve our differences with Iran and for an end to the reckless talk by the Administration and reckless votes by some members of Congress.”

Keep reading here.

Chairman Silvestre Reyes: “Today’s National Intelligence Estimate on Iran reflects a remarkable shift in our Intelligence Community’s assessment of Iran’s nuclear capabilities and intentions.”

“He speaks as an owner of LeBron and not the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers,” the reverend said in a release from his Chicago-based civil rights group, the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. “His feelings of betrayal personify a slave master mentality. He sees LeBron as a runaway slave.

Jacko is responding to an open letter Gilbert wrote to Cleavland fans in response to learning his star basketball player will departing for Miami. Here are some excerpts of that letter, which is available in full here.

…. You simply don’t deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

….This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown “chosen one” sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And “who” we would want them to grow-up to become.

It might be a poor business decision to write such a letter. You might even fairly characterize Gilbert of being a poor sport, but is there any evidence at all whatsoever that Cleavland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert is a racist? Has he ever purposefully insulted/attacked/or otherwise denigrated anyone based on their race? If Gilbert is some kind of Marge Schott of basketball, he should be outed.

If, on the other hand, Dan Gilbert is not a racist, then Jesse Jackson most certainly is.

All of this is pretty ironic anyway, coming from Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson.

And while we are having fun remembering the good Reverend, lest we not forget the ball torture he wanted to visit upon the President of the United States:

From the NYT Blog:

Climate Panel Urges ‘Distance’ From Reporters

Forget reporters, they should worry about having to answer questions from prosecutors and judges.

If they had the truth on their side, they would have nothing to hide.

SFGate is reporting that the “the RNC has still not been reimbursed for the $2,000 spent on entertaining donors at a lesbian/bondage nightclub in West Hollywood.”

This is prompting a religious based women’s advocacy group to call for Steele’s ouster

“Concerned Women for America members understood that Michael Steele had no knowledge of the notorious RNC funded outing with donors to the strip club earlier this year. We avoided taking the serious step of calling for his resignation when it appeared that ‘action’ was taken to hold staff responsible and to clean up the general issue of fiscal irresponsibility.

“However, if this is not true, then we have no choice but to admit that the RNC, and its leadership, is completely out of touch with conservatives. After making a national pledge on television that the money would be returned, the RNC has not followed through and seems to be fine with picking up the tab for something that their members, and most donors, would find offensive and improper. [LINK]

For the record, we like lesbians. A lot! We also are all for lesbian clubs and parties. Lots of them. We encourage everyone to visit a lesbian club or party or wedding at least once in their lifetimes. But private sexual behavior should not be sponsored by the RNC. Why has that money not been paid back yet?
