You know.. it's happened.. public education has failed.. a Houston,Texas
area principal has been fired for wanting her "55%" Hispanic school to prefer
speaking English versus Spanish in school. She knows that being street affluent
in English will make a difference in their lives. What's sad is that I remember
taking Spanish in high school and my teacher in Spanish II asked us to converse
in Spanish in class, She was applauded for her techniques of making students
become better bi-linguists. In today's academic chaos, she's probably would get
fired, too.

HuffPost "headlie"/story: "Gaza truce expires, rocket fire resumes * Israel
and militants from Gaza resumed cross-border attacks on Friday, after a
three-day truce expired " -- "Israel and militants"? How about as soon as
the truce "expired", HAMAS unleashed a barrage of 21 rockets toward Israel! You
know.. Hamas basically threw a blindside sucker punch.. mainstream media...and
Factless Shrugged ..just prefer to remain biased..
---
Factless Shrugged says he's not going go sit around "twiddling his thumbs"
waiting for Congress to act. Hmmm, Congress might "act" if he told Senator Harry
Reid to bring the House originated bills to a vote, and told Boehner he'd like
to meet with him and listen to his ideas.

HuffPost "headlie": Obama authorizes airstrikes against militants in Iraq"
-- "militants"... cannot the HuffPost just call terrorist organizations
by their names?
Instant repeat - HuffPost headline/story: "Obama authorizes airstrikes
against militants in Iraq * After years of resisting the pull of more Mideast
conflicts, President Barack Obama is ready to return the United States to
military action in Iraq, the very country where he accused his predecessor of
engaging in a "dumb war. * The president's authorization of airstrikes against
militants in Iraq threatens to upend his legacy as the commander in chief who
ended the long, unpopular war which killed nearly 4,500 American troops. It also
raises fresh questions about whether Obama's desire to end that conflict clouded
his assessment of the risks of fully withdrawing U.S. troops, as well as his
judgment about the threat posed by the Islamic extremists who have taken
advantage of a vulnerable Iraq." -- "threatens to upend his legacy "? "clouded
his assessment of the risks of fully withdrawing U.S. troops"? "threat posed by
the Islamic extremists"? Good grief.. the HuffPost still cannot.. will not,
refer to jihadist.. to "Islamic extremists".. by their recognized organizations
names, but at least HuffPost is showing it's not happy with the Mosqued-man. Of
course, it'll still be left for Fox News to blow its own horn and say, "I told
you so!"

Comment on above story: How many military leaders were canned for speaking
their minds about Factless Shrugged's strategies? How many mainstream media
outlets supported Factless Shrugged's strategies and firings with open
silence?

Online headline: "WHO: Ebola a global health emergency" -- Hmmm... Bud
Abbot was wrong.. WHO's not on first... WHO is in the bleacher section of
the grandstands.

Online story: "WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- A local diner that received attention
from around the world for giving a discount to those who took a moment to pray,
meditate or simply say "thank you" before their meal will stop offering the
discount due to the threat of a lawsuit. * A group called the Freedom from
Religion Foundation in Wisconsin stirred the pot Tuesday by releasing a letter
accusing Mary's Gourmet Diner owner Mary Haglund of violating the Civil Rights
Act by denying "customers who do not pray and nonbelievers the right to 'full
and equal' enjoyment of Mary's Gourmet Diner." * Haglund said she had no idea
her discount was breaking the law." -- Huh? The only question here that's worth
mulling over is why any court would even accept such a lawsuit without making an
instant ruling that the complainant should be hung in public.

Online story from a copy of Kanye's deposition in the lawsuit filed against
him by a paparazzo whom he attacked at LAX. :
Nate Goldberg -- the lawyer for the photog -- is asking Kanye about a verse
from his song, "Flashing Lights" ... rapping about paparazzi and saying, "I hate
these n***as more than a Nazi."
Goldberg asks Kanye, "So why did you say that you hate the paparazzi more
than the Nazis?"
Kanye responds, "'Cause that's what I wanted to say in that song."
Goldberg: "Well, you understood that the Nazis killed --"
At that point, Kanye's lawyer, a panicked Shawn Holley, interrupts, "Oh my
gosh!"
Goldberg: "-- six million Jews."
Holley: "It's really been a long day and we should probably" (she's about
to say recess)
Goldberg: "Well I'm not finished."
Goldberg then goes on to explain how it's "legitimate" for him to ask about
the song because it shows Kanye's hatred for paparazzi." --
Hmmm--- "I hate these niggas more than a Nazi!" ? You know.. why do parents
support not only the anti-Semite position, but also the racist spewings of
K(_*_)nye? K(_*_)ne has made a fortune being an (_*_) as a role model for black
youths.. like I say.. it's no longer a racial issue, it's a cultural
decay.

Online headline: "The Buffalo Bills may get new celebrity owner" -- The
Buffalo Bills... you know, that name is probably more offensive to Native
Americans than the Washington Redskins. Buffalo Bill Cody got his name for the
indiscriminate slaughter of buffaloes which took food out of Native American
children's mouths. How about renaming the team the Buffalo Bobs? That way, the
NFL could get Howdy Doody as its new puppet Commissioner. Wake me up at the two
minute warning.

There's an ad running show a preemie baby with numerous problems, and an
actress/mother claiming responsibility because she smoked while pregnant. You
know, most mothers of baby boomers smoked and the longevity of life is at its
highest. I guess the ad just didn't want to mention/infer what "modern mom" was
smoking while pregnant.

L-E headline/story: "Son of retired judge John Allen charged with simple
battery, violating oath of office * A former Columbus Police officer was
arrested Wednesday and charged with two felony counts of violation of oath of
office and two misdemeanor counts of simple battery * Allen is accused of
physically assaulting two juvenile burglary suspects who were in custody about
8:30 a.m. April 14, Miller said. Allen was a corporal in the fugitive unit of
the Bureau of Investigative Services when he responded to a reported burglary at
a relative's home on Whippoorwill Lane, Miller said. The alleged burglary was at
the home of Allen’s mother * After a foot chase, two officers apprehended two
suspects, one 15 and the other 16, * “After the arrests had been made, Corporal
Allen Jr. responded to the scene, got into the rear of each patrol vehicle and
physically hit and choked the juveniles," -- It's sad, but why do we expect
police officers to be numb in the frustrations we all feel with the court
system.

Dmitry Medvedev, Mr Flexible messenger for Putin, says Russia is now
banning all food stuff from the US, European Commonwealth, the British
Commonwealth et al . A crack reporter went so far as to suggest that this may
have been a retaliatory revenge move because of US, and UN sanctions..you
guess?

Rumor has it that President Factless Shrugged will leave his vacation home
on Martha's Vineyard later this month and return to Washington to address
crises. On the other hand, it's more likely he will leave his Martha's Vinyard
vacation to get a vacation away from Michelle.

Online headline: "Metta World Peace changing name to "The Pandas Friend""
-- Good grief.. it's just Ron (_*_)rtest mainstream media "pandering"
again...
---
HuffPost headline: "Insane footage of bear walking upright drives everyone
nuts" -- Ooops, my bad.. thought someone had caught Factless Shrugged standing
up like a man for a change.. on a positive note.. it was about a "bear" not Joe
"the BARE" Biden.
---
Online quote source: "“Success is never on discount. Greatness is never on
sale. Greatness is never half off! It's all or nothing! It's all day, every day!
Greatness is never on discount!” - Eric Thomas " -- Hmmm.. tell that to
Democratic Party supporters when given a choice of a free Obamaphone or
OObamaCRAP versus working and paying for it themselves.
---
You know.. When Factless Shrugged extolled his OObamaCRAP plan, he said it
would get 30,000,000 more people insured. Well, he claims 8,000,000 actually
signed up (unfortunately, a lot of those were signed up with illegal subsidies
so many will be kicked out when the correct premiums arrive). Excuse me, but
when the plan is to get 30,000,000 out of uninsured status, and 8,000,000 sign
up, how can he stand up and say, " Mission Accomplished"?
---
Hmmm this past Spring, Mayor Obamalinson said the roundabout at River
Road/Cascade/Bradley Park and Green Island Drive would begin right after the May
elections. Aside from it being a future disaster if it is built according
to either of the two plans the GA DOT offered, why is she waiting to start now
that schools have begun again and the traffic is at its worst?

Online story: "Fifty Gainesville area citizens Thursday night were asked
what their top regional transportation planning priorities are and how to pay
for them at a community meeting at the Hall Government Center. * John McGuidwin
told consultants he wants a Gainesville bypass, but not one that cuts through
neighborhoods and would disrupt the community. * “You need a by-pass outside the
city, not bringing it into the city,” McGuidwin said. “If you want to keep the
community the way it is you don’t want to congest it even more by bringing more
traffic in" -- Good grief.. typical liberal.. "I want to eat my cake and have
it, too" attitude.. In other words, "not in my back yard".
---
Random thought: It was built it... we named it.. The RiverWalk.. Now it
seems that it's used by more bicycles, raft trailers/trams, Segways, and
loiterers than "walkers".

Do you know what a 1098-T tax form is? What it is...is a bribe to buy
student votes. From what I can decipher, it more or less provides a tax credit
for the student "fees'' that are added on to every semesters' bills that are
paid by parents or Student Loans, It can put a $2,000-$2,500 bucks (via tax
refund) in students hands around Spring Break. Why are not the parents getting
this, or why isn't this being paid to the Student Loan originators to reduce the
students' loan debt? This is of interest as I just got through paying two
different semester tuitions.. one had $1,100.00 in fees, and the other $900.00..
The $900.00 fee is especially egregious as this daughter is an online student,
and doesn't even go to campus for which the fees are paying for her
activities.

L-E's "Today in history" feature: " In 1942, during World War II, six Nazi
saboteurs who were captured after landing in the U.S. were executed in
Washington, D.C.; two others who’d cooperated with authorities were spared." --
Hmmm, even liberal favorite FDR had a more effective illegal alien policy than
Factless Shrugged!
---
L-E's "Today in history" feature: "In 1974, President Richard Nixon
announced his resignation, effective the next day, following damaging new
revelations in the Watergate scandal." -- Hmmm, and Nixon was more transparent
than Factless Shrugged...
---
L-E story: "DOVER, Del. — The cremated remains of nine victims of a 1978
mass cult suicide-murder in Jonestown, Guyana, have turned up in a former
funeral home in Delaware, officials said Thursday." -- Hmmm, a Carter's years
memento for reminding Democratic voters what lies in wait for drinking the
Kool-Aid too long.
---
L-E headline: "Hawaii hit by earthquake while waiting for hurricane" --
Oooops, my bad.. thought Michelle decided to change her vacation plans from
Martha's Vinyard.

L-E story: "DALLAS, Ga. — The Paulding County Sheriff’s Office said
Thursday that it plans to add dozens of high-resolution cameras along the Silver
Comet Trail in the wake of an attack that left a jogger severely injured. *
About 47 high-resolution digital cameras would be added at about 21 locations
along the trail in the first phase of the project, with more cameras added
later." -- Hmmm.. the cameras won't stop muggings, and won't get police there
any quicker, but there will be an up-loadable to YouTube/FaceBook memento for
the victim. PSST - Make sure our Mayor Obamalinson doesn't see this! She'll want
cameras every 5 paces on the bike trail and RiverWhatever.
