Did the hate filled liberals appologize for their hate speech blaming conservatives for the Kentucky suicide?

PostDateIcon April 13th, 2011

When news broke in September that a census worker had been found hanged Wire Transfer Solera National Bank in rural Kentucky with the word "fed" scrawled across his bare chest, a number of liberal commentators suggested that anti-government sentiment whipped up by conservative activists had inspired a heinous crime.

Now it turns out to have been a suicide, but the mistaken impression of the commentators was no accident.

Kentucky State Police announced Tuesday that William Sparkman Jr. staged his death to look like a homicide motivated by hatred toward the federal government in hopes that his family would be able to collect on his life insurance.

Shortly after Mr. Sparkman’s death, there were attempts to blame the political climate fostered by Fox News commentator Glenn Beck; Rep. Michele Bachmann, Minnesota Republican, and other conservatives.

In a blog post from September titled "No Suicide," the Atlantic magazine’s Andrew Sullivan wrote "the most worrying possibility – that this is Southern populist terrorism, whipped up by the GOP and its Fox and talk radio cohorts – remains real. We’ll see."

At his site Tuesday night, Mr. Sullivan wrote, among other things, that "although I clearly suspected foul play and believed it wasn’t suicide, I drew no firm conclusions about the actual perpetrators of this act. In every post, I made sure readers knew that the investigation was ongoing, and we did not yet know the full facts."

Neither Mr. Sullivan nor the magazine returned e-mail messages from The Washington Times seeking comment.

Mr. Sullivan and some other bloggers made it clear in earlier posts that Mr. Sparkman’s death could have been the result of him stumbling across drug dealers as part of his duties as a part-time census worker. But they also theorized that Mrs. Bachmann’s criticism of the census, which she discussed on Mr. Beck’s show, may have motivated the apparent homicide.

Do you think that Obamacare will end up in the United States Supreme Court?

Napolitano: Supreme Court to Strike Down Obamacare
Friday, 26 Mar 2010 06:32 PM Article Font Size
By: David A. Patten

President Barack Obama is one of the worst presidents ever in terms of respecting constitutional limitations on government, and the states suing the federal government over healthcare reform "have a pretty strong case" and are likely to prevail, according to author and judicial analyst Andrew P. Napolitano.

In an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV’s Ashley Martella, Napolitano says the president’s healthcare reforms amount to "commandeering" the state legislatures for federal purposes, which the Supreme Court has forbidden as unconstitutional.

"The Constitution does not authorize the Congress to regulate the state governments," Napolitano says. "Nevertheless, in this piece of legislation, the Congress has told the state governments that they must modify their regulation of certain areas of healthcare, they must surrender their regulation of other areas of healthcare, and they must spend state taxpayer-generated dollars in a way that the Congress wants it done.

Special: Do You Back Obama’s Healthcare Plan? Vote Here Now!

"That’s called commandeering the legislature," he says. "That’s the Congress taking away the discretion of the legislature with respect to regulation, and spending taxpayer dollars. That’s prohibited in a couple of Supreme Court cases. So on that argument, the attorneys general have a pretty strong case and I think they will prevail.”

Napolitano, author of his just-released “Lies the Government Told You: Myth, Power, and Deception in American History” and a Fox News senior judicial analyst, is the youngest Superior Court judge ever to attain lifetime tenure in the state of New Jersey. He served on the bench from 1987 to 1995.

Napolitano tells Newsmax that the longstanding precedent of state regulation of the healthcare industry makes the new federal regulations that much more problematic.

"The Supreme Court has ruled that in areas of human behavior that are not delegated to the Congress in the Constitution, and that have been traditionally regulated by the states, the Congress can’t simply move in there," Napolitano says. "And the states for 230 years have had near exclusive regulation over the delivery of healthcare. The states license hospitals. The states license medications. The states license healthcare providers whether they’re doctors, nurses, or pharmacists. The feds have had nothing to do with it.

"The Congress can’t simply wake up one day and decide that it wants to regulate this. I predict that the Supreme Court will invalidate major portions of what the president just signed into law…"

The judge also says he would rate President Obama as one of the worst presidents in terms of obedience to constitutional limitations.

"I believe we have a one party system in this country, called the big-government party," Napolitano says. "There is a Republican branch that likes war and deficits and assaulting civil liberties. There is a Democratic branch that likes welfare and taxes and assaulting commercial liberties.

"President Obama obviously is squarely within the Democratic branch. The president who had the least fidelity to the Constitution was Abraham Lincoln, who waged war on half the country, even though there’s obviously no authority for that, a war that killed nearly 700,000 people. President Obama is close to that end of lacking fidelity to the Constitution. He wants to outdo his hero FDR."

For those who oppose healthcare, the Fox legal expert says, the bad news is that many of the legal challenges to healthcare reform will have to wait until 2014, when the changes become fully operational.

Until then, there would be no legal case that individuals had been actually harmed by the law. Moreover, Napolitano says it takes an average of four years for a case to work its way through the various federal courts the final hearing that’s expected to come before the Supreme Court.

"You’re talking about 2018, which is eight years from now, before it is likely the Supreme Court will hear this," he says.

Other issues that Napolitano addressed during the wide-ranging interview:

He believes American is in danger of becoming "a fascist country," which he defines as "private ownership, but government control." He adds, "The government doesn’t have the money to own anything. But it has the force and the threat of violence to control just about anything it wants. That will rapidly expand under President Obama, unless and until the midterm elections give us a midterm correction – which everyone seems to think, and I’m in that group, is about to come our way.
Napolitano believes the federal government lacks the legal authority to order citizens to purchase healthcare insurance. The Congress [is] ordering human beings to purchase something that they might not want, might not need, might not be able to afford, and might no

Who do you think will win the ACORN fake video lawsuit?

PostDateIcon April 3rd, 2011

One of the many victims of Andrew Breitbart’s ACORN video hoax has filed suit against pseudo-pimp James O’Keefe and pseudo-ho Hannah Giles. Former San Diego ACORN office employee Juan Carlos Vera, who was falsely portrayed in a heavily edited videotape as conspiring with O’Keefe and Giles to traffic underage girls across the Mexican border, is suing both of the right-wing filmmakers, seeking ,000 in damages under California’s privacy statutes.

Filed last week in the U.S. District Court in San Diego, Vera’s complaint claims that O’Keefe, Giles and up to 20 unnamed parties violated his "reasonable expectation of privacy" by conspiring to secretly videotape him and then posting the tapes on the Internet without his consent, causing him to lose his job and other damages.

The notorious tape featuring Vera — with his friendly smile and hesitant English — was aired repeatedly on Fox News and cited as proof of the most incendiary charge against ACORN by conservative Web impresario Breitbart: namely, that the anti-poverty organization was in fact a criminal conspiracy to promote teenage prostitution.

But as California Attorney General Jerry Brown discovered when he investigated the ACORN matter last spring, the actual meaning of the Vera tape was severely distorted by dishonest editing to suggest that he had agreed to help smuggle young girls for O’Keefe’s mythical brothel. To obtain unedited versions of the tapes from O’Keefe, Brown gave him and Giles immunity from any criminal prosecution under the state privacy statutes.

What really happened in the San Diego ACORN office, as Fox News and many other outlets neglected to report, was that immediately after O’Keefe and Giles departed, Vera called a cousin who is a detective in the National City Police Department to report the planned crime. Police detectives later confirmed Vera’s effort to local news outlets and to the California attorney general’s office. When Vera learned that O’Keefe and Giles were hoaxing him, he again called the police, who terminated their investigation.

"The evidence illustrates," said Brown when he released his report last April, "that things are not always as partisan zealots portray them through highly selective editing of reality. Sometimes a fuller truth is found on the cutting-room floor." And soon that fuller truth may be weighed in the halls of justice.

Is Harry Reid no longer any help for immigration reform 10,000 tea partiers vs 100 Reid supporters?

PostDateIcon March 28th, 2011

After more than 10,000 tea partiers descended on Sen. Harry Reid’s hometown of Searchlight, Nev., to demand an end to the Senate majority leader’s term in one of the largest political events in town history, Reid launched his re-election campaign – in front of a paltry crowd of 100 supporters.

On March 27, tea partiers flocked from cities all over the nation to the small town of Searchlight, with a population of only 800. Crowd estimates at the "Conservative Woodstock" ranged from 10,000 to 30,000.
The event featured Gov. Sarah Palin and a host of other guests, including 2008 libertarian vice presidential candidate Wayne Allyn Root, WND columnists Roger Hedgecock and Melanie Morgan, Joe the Plumber, commentator Andrew Breitbart and former "Saturday Night Live" regular Victoria Jackson.

The following are photos of the massive rally taken by the non-profit group American Border Patrol: Just more than a week after taxpayers stormed Searchlight, Reid launched his re-election campaign near the tea-party site.

Barack Obama condescends to them and to Nancy Pelosi, they’re "Nazis." This reveals what the tea partiers really are!

The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Reid was cheered on by more than 100 close supporters.

The Tea Party Express issued a release Monday headlined, "Harry Reid humiliated in ‘hometown.’"

"We did it folks," Tea Party Express spokesman Sal Russo declared in the memo. "We stood up to the corrupt Senate Majority Leader and we showed the power of We the People."

Reid can be seen addressing his supporters and taking a few jabs at Palin in the following video posted by Fox News:

Later, when Las Vegas Review-Journal reporters asked Reid what he thought of the 10,000 tea partiers who converged on Searchlight calling for his defeat, Reid said he understands anger at government and Washington during an economic recession. However, he said he was confused about what tea partiers mean when they cite the Constitution and call for liberty, freedom and limited federal government.

"The people who are really upset don’t really know why they’re upset," Reid told the newspaper. "What do they mean?"

Fox News reported Reid canceled a scheduled appearance at a Mormon church Sunday because protesters threatened to show up.

Will Breitbart, O'Keefe and Giles come clean about the ACORN pimp hoax?

PostDateIcon March 18th, 2011

James O’Keefe never wore his crazy hustler outfit to meet with community organizers. Instead, the ’70s-style blaxploitation pimp costume O’Keefe helped make famous was a propaganda tool used after the fact to deceive the public about the undercover operation.

Yet in the very infancy of the ACORN scandal, Fox News was peddling a false story about O’Keefe’s pimp costume, a false story that quickly morphed into accepted fact. (Eventually, after an avalanche of repetition, didn’t pretty much everyone believe O’Keefe was decked out as a pimp?)

It quickly morphed into fact because the lead propagandists helped to spread the tall tale. And now they won’t come clean about their role.

For instance, during that September 12 broadcast, Giles said nothing to set the record straight. That night, she sat and listened to Gutfeld tell the phony pimp story, and she became complicit in the lie. Obviously, Giles knew her undercover pal didn’t look like he just came from a costume party when he walked into ACORN outposts with his undercover camera. But on Fox News, when Gutfeld spread that tale, Giles did nothing to correct the record.

Soon, her undercover cohort joined in the misinformation campaign. Two days later, O’Keefe appeared on Fox & Friends decked out as a pimp. Host Steve Doocy announced that O’Keefe was "dressed exactly in the same outfit that he wore to these ACORN offices up and down the Eastern Seaboard."

O’Keefe made no effort to correct Doocy’s falsehood.

And then one week later, writing in The Washington Times, O’Keefe and Giles’ mentor, conservative activist Andrew Breitbart, whose website Big Government first hosted the ACORN clips, added to the misinformation movement. He wrote that O’Keefe had been "dressed as a pimp" while "getting" tax advice inside ACORN offices.

It was all part of a campaign, often fueled by winks and nods, to plant the indelible image of O’Keefe strolling into inner-city ACORN workplaces on summer afternoons decked out in his furry pimp costume and clueless ACORN employees not batting an eye.

BE CAREFUL, cons. You are being lied to.

Do you think ACORN Could Open Pandora's Box?

ACORN Could Open Pandora’s Box

by Ken Blackwell

Ken Klukowski co-authored this piece

In the wake of Fox News reporting on the unfolding ACORN scandal, ACORN is now threatening to sue the network. Now that Fox is actually breaking news on this story by showing new videos, ACORN might just do it. Fox News should pray that ACORN does sue, because it would blow the doors off this story, possibly destroying ACORN and erupting into a political scandal in Washington.

As bizarre as it seems, ACORN is threatening to sue Fox for reporting on these incriminating videotapes. Glenn Beck broke news with a new tape on Monday, and Sean Hannity might be doing the same shortly. Evidently, ACORN is accusing Fox of coordinating with the filmmakers, arguing that somehow these reports make Fox legally liable.

ACORN’s unavoidable problem, however, is that suing Fox News would give Fox — or any other media organization — the ultimate Christmas present: a legally enforceable way to compel ACORN to give up all its secrets.

The process by which a party to a lawsuit can force the opposing party to disclose information is called discovery, which can take the form of depositions, written questions, or demands for the production of documents. Under federal rules, a defendant can get court orders for discovery for any information relevant to its defense, except for privileged information such as attorney-client discussions.

If ACORN sues, it would have to sue alleging some variation of defamation or fraud. The problem is that for either allegation, truth is an absolute defense. Nothing could be more relevant to Fox establishing its defense of truth in the lawsuit than having access to ACORN’s office memos, emails, phone records, and bank statements. All of these would have a reasonable chance of providing evidence as to whether ACORN workers had knowledge of any of the topics seen on the videotapes.

In short, it would blow the doors off ACORN’s vault of secrets. Fox would learn which organizations collaborate with ACORN, how they spend taxpayer money and what ACORN’s leaders say to each other behind closed doors. It would be a treasure trove for a media organization.

It could also become a massive political scandal in Washington. Two of the individuals on ACORN’s eight-member advisory board include John Podesta (the chairman of President Obama’s transition team after the election) and Andrew Stern, the president of SEIU who is intimately involved with the White House on numerous issues, including the health care plan. Some Democratic elected and appointed officials also have close ties with ACORN.

While it’s certainly possible that none of these public officials have any knowledge of criminal activities by ACORN workers, it would be embarrassing to have their names associated with the investigation. Does ACORN really want to open Pandora’s box by suing a media company when these things would be at stake?

It’s not surprising that ACORN is considering lawsuits out of desperation, including suits against the intrepid reporters who filmed these tapes, and against Big Government, the new political website by online media guru Andrew Breitbart that first broke this story and has been the leading source for continuing developments.

(Not that any of them should be overly concerned, either. They would have no trouble collecting vast sums for a legal defense team and would have a good chance at winning on the merits in any such lawsuit. And again, their discovery efforts would give Big Government reams of material for new stories. In short, they would become heroes to the national conservative movement for helping bring down ACORN.)

So ACORN’s legal actions would be its undoing. The resulting exposure would explode into a national story that even sympathetic media outlets could no longer ignore, bedeviling ACORN’s allies at SEIU and even dragging top advisers to President Barack Obama into humiliating legal proceedings.

And once top ACORN officials were put on the witness stand under oath, who knows what the American taxpayer would learn?

It would be one huge, ongoing scoop for Fox. And their ratings would soar, as ACORN sinks beneath the waves.

Should FOX News ban Geraldo, and Judge Andrew Napolitano, for questioning the War on Terror?

PostDateIcon December 20th, 2010

Those who question their Government are as bad as those who take up arms against their Government.

NOTE: I know you guys don’t like YouTube, but this is simply a clip from FOX News, so it should be credible enough.

The Wolf: I think you and I have watched enough FOX News to know that it is VERY unpatriotic to challenge the War on Terror.

By the way, I’ve never voted for a Democrat or a "liberal" (whatever that is).

I’ve supported Pat Buchanan, and Reagan, and in 2008, I wrote in RON PAUL.
