Imagine for a moment if a Christian fundamentalist pastor publicly threatened a Democratic Party governor about to sign a legitimately passed bill into law with a long-term campaign of public harassment for doing so. Now imagine if that pastor extended that threat to include appearances at the governor´s home and at his children´s sporting events, and that Republican and conservative elected officials on hand during the pastor´s announcement voiced no objection to the pastor´s threats. All of that would be news, right? Well, Detroit pastor Charles E. Williams II, described here as "Pastor, Historic King Solomon Baptist Church

To borrow a line from Mr. Spock, I would say to this so-called pastor, "Sir, you are employing a double negative."

But,but,but..........

The liberals feel so deeply and care so much more than others that we have to overlook their occasional exaggerations.

Laws controlling the actions of dangerous conservatives must be strengthened,however.

This ´pastor´ is no Christian, fundamentalist or otherwise. Unless you include charlatans of the Jackson/Sharpton stripe in your definition of ´Christian´.

The lunatic left harrassed Governor Walker & our republican legislators for over a year. Other than conservative talk radio & websites it went largely unreported so it continued without public outcry. Can´t condemn stuff you know nothing about !

Then one day a lefty union hack had a couple eggs thrown at his house. This story made front page headlines, above the fold, complete with pictures & outrage over the behavior of conservatives.

I´m still bruised & battered over what our state went through. The hypocrisy from the left, the double standards, the lies, the misinformation & the free pass from the press has just about turned me off of all things political.

The brutal fact is that Democrats have declared everyone who can´t be bullied by them to be enemies of their state. We, who believe in our Constitution and the rule of law, are their enemy and they have given themselves permission to destroy us by any means possible. Since 1967 we have been in a Second American Civil War- and we´ve just lost a huge battle in that war. The Orcs are coming for us and you better be prepared.

What the left is disparate to tear down capitalism.

1) We know our value system is bankrupt, but if we all stick together, we all get paid.

2) We know we are wrong, but don´t judge us - this is why we hate Judeo-Christian ethics.

3) We are lazy and understand that our lack of motivation will take us to abject poverty and that alone will discredit any arguement we put forth - this is why we push for "social justice".

This last paragraph sums up the ´non-coverage´ by our press very well:

~~But when a reasonably prominent far-left pastor threatens a long-term campaign of harassment against a sitting governor and his family, there´s nothing but stone silence. The only reasonable conclusion is that the press doesn´t want the nation to know about the chronic incivility, threats, or even the violence routinely carried out by the left against Republicans and conservatives. The non-exposure only encourages more of the same. It would appear that the press wouldn´t mind seeing that result at all.~~

This kind of dangerous nonsense is why we moved out of Ann Arbor to a small town in the same county. It is also why I won´t substitute teach in A2 or points East either.

I´m so tired of unions, progressives,and Affirmative Action people who think they are owed something and who care less about the good of the state, city, county or country. They are power hungry and anyone who threatens to take that power away, they will have no compunction about doing great harm to that person.

Rick Snyder was not my preferred candidate for Governor, but his signing the bill has certainly elevated him in my approval.

I´ve been attending a different church this year. Last week, the pastor preached on the importance of accepting change. Interesting timing. Today he managed to include the exhortation "Forward!" in his sermon. At that point, several families got up and walked out.

A few years ago ads promoted --send 10 dollars and receive legal registration as a minister all that´s necessary is to maintain a a spot in your home place a Bible on something designated as an altar and begin your church and pay no property taxes .
My brother decided to check out the con and applied then was shocked to receive a legal license. That license even allowed him to claim his home as an official tax free location. He took it to the court house and was told so it´s legal enough and no official classes necessary to qualify. He tucked it away to show real ministers what their competition had become.
Now any more questions about certain people
have acquired this religious designation.

Now they need to make clear that they will not tolerate this kind of threat-mongering and lawlessness, and bullying and thuggishness.

The Leftists never ever hesitate to make their loud obnoxious voices heard. Now the civilized members of our Republic need to speak out and NOT back down.

Now. No time to waste.

Non-deportation rate
drops — to 99.2 percent
Washington Times [DC], by Stephen Dinan    Original Article
Posted By: JoniTx- 5/19/2013 3:28:53 PM     Post Reply
The Homeland Security Department has granted legal status to 99.2 percent of all illegal immigrants who have applied under President Obama’s new non-deportation policy for young adults, according to the latest numbers released Friday. That’s a slight drop from the 99.5 percent approval rate reported last month. The policy, known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, grants legal status to most illegal immigrants under the age of 31 who came to the U.S. before age 16 — usually brought by their parents. They are allowed to remain in the U.S. without fear of deportation, and are given work permits.

President Obama on Sunday summoned the graduates of historically black Morehouse College to “transform the way we think about manhood,” urging the young men to avoid the temptation to make excuses and to take responsibility for their families and their communities. Delivering a commencement address at the all-male private liberal arts college in Atlanta, Obama spoke in deeply personal terms about the “special obligation” he feels as a black man to help those left behind. “There but for the grace of God, I might be in their shoes,” Obama said. “I might have been in prison.

Washington - Veteran journalist Bob Woodward accused Obama administration officials of invoking the worst instincts of former President Richard Nixon in their response to last year’s deadly attack on two U.S. compounds in Benghazi, Libya. “This is not Watergate, but there are some people in the administration who have acted as if they want to be Nixonian, and that’s a very big problem,” he said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” The longtime Washington Post journalist, whose reporting on the Watergate burglary led to the resignation of Mr. Nixon in 1974, questioned the Obama

White House Senior Adviser Dan Pfeiffer made the Sunday show rounds this week, including a stop at Fox News Sunday, where Chris Wallace pressed him on the administration’s handling of and response to the Benghazi attack. Wallace persisted on the topic of the emails about the talking points in particular — but the two couldn’t manage to agree. Wallace began by questioning Pfeiffer about what President Obama did the night of the attack and whether he was in the situation room — but Pfeiffer said Obama was kept updated, and didn’t provide specifics, contending that which room

"Partisan fishing expeditions" - like the amplifying clamor around news that the Internal Revenue Service targeted for excessive review conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status - White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said Sunday on "Face the Nation," won´t "distract" President Obama from doing his job. Pfieffer did admit, however, the the IRS´ conduct was wrong and should be fixed. "It´s inexcusable conduct that needs to be fixed," Pfeiffer said.

Even as his administration has faced intense scrutiny over a trio of controversies, President Obama’s approval rating hasn’t suffered, according to a new CNN/ORC International poll released Sunday. Fifty-three percent of Americans said they approve of the job the president is doing, while 45 percent said they disapprove. That’s virtually unchanged from an early April survey in which Obama’s approval/disapproval split was 51 percent to 47 percent. The poll is one of the earliest indicators of how Obama’s image has been affected during one of the worst weeks of his presidency.

DAMASCUS, Va - At least 50 people were injured Saturday after a car struck a crowd of hikers in the Appalachian Trail Days parade in Damascus. A Virginia State Police reconstruction team has closed off the bridge where the incident happened and is investigating it as a crime scene. According to authorities, a green Cadillac was traveling on Route 91 in Damascus around 2:15 p.m. when his vehicle cut through a nearby car wash located off Third Street, where the parade was taking place.

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

WASHINGTON - There were new questions Saturday night concerning if anyone in the White House was aware of the IRS´ targeting of conservative groups. Inspector General Russell George said he informed a deputy at the Treasury Department in June of 2012 about the probe into the IRS. The Treasury Department confirmed the timeline but said they did not know the details of the investigation until last week.(Snip)Marcus Owens ran the tax-exempt division at the IRS for 10 years.

In the wake of one of the worst abuses of government power in recent history, many are rushing to frame the Internal Revenue Service scandal as simply an attack on conservative activists. That view risks creating a partisan political football and misses a fundamentally scarier abuse that exceeds the scandals of Watergate or any other prior government abuse. The IRS has admitted that since May 2010 it targeted grassroots-conservative organizations that had applied for tax-exempt status, unfairly subjecting them to rigorous scrutiny due to their political leanings. Such groups were told they were required to comply with IRS requests,

Treasury Secretary Jack Lew on Friday urged congressional leaders to raise the debt limit and insisted that the White House is not going to negotiate over the increase because lawmakers have "no choice." "We will not negotiate over the debt limit," Lew wrote. "The creditworthiness of the United States is non-negotiable. The question of whether the country must pay obligations it has already incurred is not open to debate." Lew said that while President Obama is willing to discuss plans to reduce the nation´s deficit with Congress, those talks must be kept separate from any effort to raise the nation´s debt cap.

It began in earnest last Friday. A flash mob of latte drinking, tofu eating media that has done its best to quell, rather than fan the flames of truth, turned on one of their own. Jay Carney lay bludgeoned at the base of the podium, a victim of friendly fire. Ironically, the attack was reminiscent of the one in Benghazi he has repeatedly denied the Administration he represents bears any responsibility for. “Changed twelve times?!” came the cries. And with good reason. We were misled; no, lied to.
