    LOS ANGELES - Millions of fans from around the globe gathered along Sunset Boulevard to pay final respects to California today, as a slow moving funeral procession transported the eccentric superstar state's remains to its final resting place in a Winchell's Donuts dumpster in Van Nuys. The self-proclaimed 'King of Pop Culture' died last week at 160, in what coroners ruled an accidental case of financial autoerotic asphyxiation. The death sent shock waves across the world and sparked an outpouring of grief by rabid fans. "I don't care what the tabloids and the Wall Street Journal say," said a weeping...

    What does $10 million buy? Many of you might buy property and become rental owners. Some of you might retire and live a life of leisure. Still others might decide they would like to help out those injured or in need, perhaps including those left in the dust by the federally bailed out and bankrupt GM and Chrylser. I just submitted a proposal to build a four-story, 40,000 square foot museum that should end up costing less than that to build, barring major design changes by the owners. The owners will have a fully functional and operating museum for less...
  • Racist, Violent Attack Against Whites Being Ignored

    07/09/2009 12:54:27 PM PDT · by vaper69 · 14 replies · 443+ views
    In light of my recent posts on rejecting the term reverse racism, and commentary on how some blacks use their race to be jerks, I am saddened to bring you this latest installment. The media frequently will not report a hate crime against whites as a hate crime, and authorities are just as bad. Anyone who remembers the Christian-Newsom Murders will understand what I’m talking about. Ohio is the latest such circumstance where a blatant racist group of blacks attacked whites, but they are hesitant to call it a hate crime.
  • Democrats Back Off Cap and Trade Bill; Postpone Senate Action Until September

    Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | July 9, 2009 | BrianinMO
    Opponents of President Obama's "Cap and Trade" Legislation have won a temporary victory today as the U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee backed off on pushing the bill forward this summer. In fact, Chairwoman Barbara Boxer said it would not be taken up by the Senate until September. This about face by Boxer, who had set a deadline of early August to complete work on the bill, is undoubtedly a result of strong opposition from the American people, the announcement by Democrat Robert Byrd that he will oppose the bill, and falling poll numbers for President Obama . ....

    Our country currently finds itself in the midst of the worst economic crisis since the 1930s and, as during all economic crises, people search for the answer as to why this has happened. Not only have large financial firms been affected, but also mainstays of American industry such as GM and Chrysler, all the way down to the Mom & Pop stores on Main Street. The easy way out is to blame the traditional scapegoats: foreign governments, fraudulent businessmen, and greedy speculators. But the real villain is far more sinister; the organization entrusted with maintaining a stable dollar and touted...

    This is good news:A federal judge in June threw out seizure of three fake passports from a traveler, saying that TSA screeners violated his Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable search and seizure. Congress authorizes TSA to search travelers for weapons and explosives; beyond that, the agency is overstepping its bounds, U.S. District Court Judge Algenon L. Marbley said. "The extent of the search went beyond the permissible purpose of detecting weapons and explosives and was instead motivated by a desire to uncover contraband evidencing ordinary criminal wrongdoing," Judge Marbley wrote. In the second case, Steven Bierfeldt, treasurer for the Campaign...

    Telegraph Blogs (U.K.) ^ | July 9, 2009 | Alex Spillius
    While Barack Obama continues his foreign tour in Italy, trouble is brewing on the home front. His poll numbers are slipping, as Rasmussen reports here, and Gallup does here. The source of the shift is independent voters, particularly in swing states. The numbers are nothing for the White House to fret about, but clearly the president’s shine is beginning to wear off. The main reason for his slump was a depressing jobs report last week that saw unemployment rise to 9.5%. It is soon likely to hit the red letter figure of ten per cent. The $787 billion stimulus package...

    The Obama administration is currently working to push health care reform down the pipeline at an alarming rate. The reason for this is that President Obama is trying to make good on his promise that sweeping health care reform will be completed by the end of 2009. What’s really important here though is not whether or not he meets that deadline. Hitting that deadline is actually quite irrelevant as the proposed options to fix the system won’t address the real problems in health care. Even worse yet it seems that the administration doesn’t care that the real problems won’t be...

She's like the ex-girlfriend they're SO over, never want to see again, have already forgotten about -- really, it's O-ver -- but they just can't stop talking about her.

    In a poll sponsored by Expedia.com, 4,500 international hotels were asked which country’s tourists were they least excited to see come through the lobby. The answer? Of course, the French. According to the responses, the French were seen as cheap, arrogant, and unwilling to speak the languages of the places they visited. Isn’t this how Barack Obama characterized Americans who traveled abroad, as knowing nothing more than “merci beaucoup”? A spokesman on French radio explained away the poor performance in the survey by saying that the country of France is so superior that few French ever feel the need to...

    Since my appearance on MSNBC regarding Sarah Palin has generated so much conversation, I felt it might be a good idea to expand upon the points I made while debating the commentators. I realize my comments fly in the face of conventional wisdom and are contrary to the analysis given by most Republican consultants. That understood, I think there are three good reasons that the Palin resignation could (key word: could) be a good move for her on a long term basis: 1) The money angle (as Charlie Cook covered this week). 1. The Palin’s aren’t wealthy. They haven’t reached...

    Maybe Congress believes that the "other white meat" is good for you, because the health care bill is loaded with it, even though people are already choking on the price tag. In one more example that the Democratic Party-run congress is just not listening to the will of the people, both the house and Senate versions of the developing Obamacare legislation has special "pet projects" designed to make the representatives more popular in their districts. Included are projects that have nothing to do with providing universal health insurance such as adding lighting to a playground or clearing a walking path...

But instead of trying to recruit new hires, they fired nearly 200 almost exclusively white workers and replaced them with a large number of minority employees, many of whom were seen by their fellow workers to be unskilled at their new jobs. The move produced severe racial tensions, made worse by the fact that, as a high-level Democratic staffer confided, “We’ve been...

    Early this morning, while most Americans were asleep in their beds, Barack Obama was protecting the world, one degree at a time. In a decisive maneuver to control the earth’s climate change, the U.S. president and his comrades at the G-8 summit promised to keep the world’s temperature from rising over 3.6°F (2.0°C). Details of the president’s plan are still sketchy, though the cap-and-trade bill passed by the House and due for debate in the Senate is likely a first step. Obama may then contact the Defense Department, which has been largely idle now that the president has begun to...

Likewise such behaviors will be the premature ruination of any people directly or any nation indirectly. Yes it is true that...
