Online story: "Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) had some harsh words for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) while speaking at an event for the Jefferson County Democratic Party in Kentucky. * "I can be really brief tonight and just say, Mitch McConnell sucks,” Yarmuth said Thursday, according to the Washington Post. * McConnell campaign manager Jesse Benton called the comment "classless." * “The liberals are coming completely unhinged,” he told the Washington Post." -- That is what liberals do when they can't back up words with facts. On the other hand, if McConnell had said that about Yarmuth, mainstream media would have called it a "slur', and sexually insensitive.

Don't hold your breath on Holder resigning. Well at least until his presence is no longer protecting Judas 00- bama. 00-bama will throw him under the bus whenever it benefits him more than keeping him on hand. The same thing happened when Reno wouldn't leave Clinton in the second term, and keeping her mouth shut benefited Clinton.

---

Online headline: "Obama, China Make Climate Change Agreement" -- Hmmm, now that's something not worth the rice paper it's written on. You know, I guess Judas 00-bama is tired of being compared to Jimmy Carter... and coming up short, so now he's further trying to emulate Nixon. I guess he figures even the new mainstream media still hates Nixon.

Online story: "WASHINGTON, June 8 (Reuters) - A U.S. intelligence agency requested a criminal probe on Saturday into the leak of highly classified information about secret surveillance programs run by the National Security Agency, a spokesman for the intelligence chief's office said. * Confirmation that the NSA filed a "crimes report" came a few hours after the nation's spy chief, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper launched an aggressive defense of a secret government data collection program." -- Why am I expecting a movie about all this... maybe "The Keystone Kops Meet the 3 Stooges"?

That (_@_) in Ohio who kidnapped and enslaved 3 girls for 10 years... well, his lawyers says he's going to plead "not guilty" at the arraignment. "Arraignment"? He was arrested over a month ago... no wonder out legal system is so expensive.

From the "what's wrong with this picture" department:

How many people standing behind this banner do you think know what the banners says?

Online story: "LONDON -- The British government says that some $4 billion in new funding has been secured to help fight hunger and malnutrition. * Britain's Department for International Development says that the signing of nutrition pact in London will improve the lives of 500 million pregnant women and small children." -- WOW! $4 BILLION DOLLARS TO FEED 500,000,000 women and children! Liberals will be out in droves applauding such good intentions, BUT, none will do the math to know that divided that thin, that's but $8.00 per person... and that's assuming ALL of it will actually reach pregnant women and small children. The reality is, though, that each of those 500 million women/children may get 1 not-so-Happy-Meal.

Judas 00-bama just said, 'You can't have 100% security, and 100% privacy, and 100% convenience." -- Well, it seems Judas 00-bama must have been on another page when he decided that states can't require photo ID at the ballot box. Voter fraud is as great a terror threat as al Qaida.

---

With Judas 00-bama deciding that our freedoms are compromisable with his paranoia, how can he ask our military to put their lives on the line?

From the "as predicted" department - Online story: "A top county Democratic official in New Jersey has filed a lawsuit against Gov. Chris Christie (R) challenging his decision to call a special election in October to fill a U.S. Senate seat. * Somerset County Democratic Party Chairwoman Peg Schaffer's law firm filed suit to move the Oct. 16 special election to the Nov. 5 general election date, alleging that the October date could suppress voter turnout in November" -- Let's see... DUMBERats had passed two conflicting laws so they could sue no matter which one Christie chose, but the real complaint the DUMBERats have is that they will have to pay "twice" to get their voters to the two elections.

---

As to the above - another NJ DUMBERat has filed another suit to move the "special election" fro October 16th to November 5th to correspond with the existing General Election date... "to save money". Imagine that... a DUMBERat who wants to save money. Of course, tax dollars could be saved every year if Political parties, which are private enterprises, had to pay for their primaries themselves.

The next time you hear anyone on the MCSD board or working at a school complain about lack of funds, ask them if them if they know whether or not MCSD is collecting the fees for out of county and out of state students. An insider says this is not a worry or priority of Dr. Phillips.

College baseball has reached a point of excessiveness. Now players catching a third out in an inning casually flip the ball into the bleachers. I remember when fans were expected to throw foul balls back or a goon would come looking for the ball.

Speaking of college baseball: Yes,Virginia, there is a Mississippi State Bulldog.

Those actors doing the "I Am Bradley Manning" ads should get the same sentence Bradley Manning gets for being a traitor.

---

One of those 'actors' was Oliver Stone. Oliver Stone once said in an interview that, Hitler was "an easy scapegoat", ""Hitler was a Frankenstein, but there was also a Dr. Frankenstein. German industrialists, the Americans and the British. He had a lot of support," the director reportedly said." -- Public outrage did get an apology from him, but that still doesn't mean he feels any different now.

When Watergate happened, it took a team of investigative journalists to out the facts. When the IRS scandal hit the fan, it was only because the mainstream media stopped ignoring what Judas 00-bama was conducting in front of their eyes.

RE: Collapsed building in Philadelphia. The operator of the excavator that knocked a wall over into the Salvation Army Thrift Store next door has been arrested because he had marijuana in his blood. Bet his defense lawyers will campaign for a 'change of venue' to either Colorado or Washington State, where marijuana is legal under state laws.

One aspect of former IRS Director Shulman's 157 White House "visits" has not been examined enough... "visits" to the White House are pretty much a "command performance" orchestrated by the White House. No one calls and says "I'm dropping by", and no one drops by the White House unexpectedly... your name has to be on "the list" at the main gate.

L-E headline: "School board considers renewing John Phillips’ interim superintendent contract for one year or until job is filled; superintendent search enters 2nd year" -- Can't the MCSD Board do anything right? Imagine the uproar if Auburn had given Gene Chizick a 1-year extension to coach football because they hadn't found a replacement...

---

Why doesn't the MCSD Board just go out and ask Ron White to be the next superintendent. He won't be disappointed at conditions here, because he already knows "You Can't Fix Stupid"!

---

From L-E story on the MCSD: "Quote: "At age 67 and with 42 years in public education, including 27 as a superintendent, Phillips could be spending more time with his hunting dogs than being dogged for hunting budget cuts, but he says he has a commitment to keep." -- Well, Phillips ain't "stupid". $8,400 plus a month ain't bad part time work when you're retired.

From above story: "The only current applicant the Ledger-Enquirer has identified grew up across the Chattahoochee River from Columbus, and he hasn't been granted an interview. * Phenix City native Eugene White, 65, retired April 5 as Indianapolis Public Schools superintendent. During his seven-year tenure, he became the state's only two-time winner of the superintendent of the year award, in 2002 and 2009, but he was forced out of the job when the new school board bought out his contract. * The Indianapolis Star reported Jan. 14: "White's early community support waned and frustration built over the district's continuing problems with low test scores, declining enrollment and charges of a bloated bureaucracy. New state initiatives -- such as a private school voucher program, an expansion of charter schools and the state's move to take over four persistently failing IPS schools this year -- raised the stakes. The district came under increasing fire for not making more progress." -- The Indianapolis system bought out (the only way to fire him) Eugene White's contract because "White's early community support waned and frustration built over the district's continuing problems with low test scores, declining enrollment and charges of a bloated bureaucracy", and the L-E and MCSD Board thinks he's a candidate worth exploring? ...

I really hate it when anyone refers to what has been done to the Chattahoochee as a 'restoration'. Restoring something is to put it back to as close to original as one can... not adding more concrete that was taken out.

L-E story: "ATLANTA — Trustees of Morris Brown College have turned down an offer of nearly $10 million in taxpayer money. * Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed had offered the money that would have eliminated the bankrupt school’s $35 million debt and solved its legal problems, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports . * Morris Brown’s Philadelphia-based lawyer Anne Aaronson has said the city’s offer was insufficient because it covered the college’s debt but didn’t provide operating funds. She says the school has a better offer on the table." -- Oft we hear of tales that mention 'the blind leading the blind', but this is, if not the first, then the worst case of 'the stupid leading the stupid'. It's a Ron White joke on steroids.

---

From the L-E's "Today in History" feature: "In 1943, the federal government began withholding income tax from paychecks." -- Hmm would that be because for the first time in Roosevelt's presidency that enough people had a paying job from which to tax?

DUMBERat Congressman Sanford Bishops' paid re-election staffer, Karl Douglass writes today: "This past week’s revelations about the PRISM program and the FISA court order issued to Verizon for the National Security Administration took me back to the time I read George Or-well’s “1984” in the 10th grade. The only thing missing from this week’s saga has been a Winston Smith-type character charged with rewriting old news stories to support the party line. " -- Who needs Winston Smith? Our education system has been plying re-written history books to students for the last 40 years.

There's a resolution to name a section of RiverWalk after two men. I cannot believe Billy Wickham would feel that a natural trail being asphalted or concreted over would be an honor.
