Online headline: "Boston marathon bomber sentenced to death" -- There's but one question left to ask... what took the jury more than 5 minutes to decide this?

---

HuffPOOPOO headline: "7 Things You Should Know About The Death Penalty, Even If You Support It" -- Hmmm, aside from the mantra liberal reasons against the death penalty.. here are two more reasons that should be included in this lib rant.. 1 - it's not used enough, and 2 - too much time elapses between sentences and results.. Ironically, this "report" was published in connection with Bomber Brother 2's sentence, and the libs reason #1 is "We're likely putting innocent people to death.".. Yeah, right...

Online story: "The Amtrak train that derailed Tuesday, killing eight people and injuring more than 200, may have been struck in the windshield by an object, possibly a rock or bullet, before it careened off the tracks," -- Hmmm.. this excuse sounds like something Jon Lovitz would use in a SNL skit... "yeah..that's the ticket", but unless "an object" had been a meteor, I cannot see it having any effect on a train's stability. It's not like the driver could have "jerked the steering wheel" in a sudden reaction. My bet is still on excessive speed in a curve..

Online story: "Hillary Rodham Clinton and former President Bill Clinton reported Friday they earned more than $25 million combined in speaking fees since January 2014." -- Hmmm... must be nice to be "dead broke" and unemployed...Oh... and how does that compare with what their lowest paid employee made?

F.A.O. Schwarz is closing its 5Th Ave NYC icon location.. What a shame.. we got to take our daughters there in 2002, so they will have that memory (plus pictures) to remember.. it's citing the high and rising costs of running the retail space as the reason... but.. toy stores don't close doing good economic times.. This will be another nail in Obamageddon's legacy coffin.... wish it was the final one.

Online headline: "Obama speaks out on 'rift' between police and citizens" -- "speaks out on rift"? Obamageddon IS the rift!

---

HuffPOOPOO headline: "UN Issues Scathing Assessment of U.S. Human Rights Record" -- Hmmm.. I tell you what.. why doesn't the UN set up a border operation to stop illegals crossing illegally into out "horror house", the contract with individual state to come in and remove existing illegals back to the utopian countries they came from...

Online story: "ABC News chief anchor George Stephanopoulos apologized Friday to his viewers for his failure to disclose $75,000 in gifts he made to the Clinton Foundation while he was covering Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and foundation controversies." -- "apologized... for failure to disclose"? He should be apologizing BECAUSE he gave them something...

---

You know.. I'd be real interested in seeing George Stephanopoulos' donations to other charitable organizations focused on poverty and 3rd world counties' health issues...over the past 20 years...

---

L-E headline: "Seven principal changes on Muscogee County School Board agenda" -- Ooops. my bad.. well, any way, maybe next meetings agenda will be about "seven PRINCIPLE changes"..

---

You know.. I'm really not a proponent of the state taking over any of our schools.. the state's (as well as the federal's) influence is built into the system already.. what I would like to see is an appointed school board again.. that way.. if a current member wanted a second or third appointment, he/she would have to show the Grand Jury how he/she has been effective for the general education of our children.

Jonathan Gruber triple-double (well, the NBA uses this term) extra stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": " After years of watching and sitting on either side of the fence from time to time, I decided that it’s impossible to have a conservative form of government and freedom at the same time." -- Good grief... a conservative form of government is the ONLY kind of government that can guarantee our freedom.. we have to do something... fast.. about public education.. it seems educators have been serving Kool-Aid in class as well.

---

A "gets it" L-E "soundoff": " I’m still waiting for documented proof from “income inequality” whiners (Millard Grimes, Clinton, Obama, etc.), that they have distributed all their personal assets, over median family wealth, to the poor." -- Hey, don't leave Gates and Buffett out of the mix...

---

Another "get it" L-E "soundoff": " Instead of “No Justice! No Peace!” try “No Crime! No police!” -- -- hmmm.. pretty much self-explanatory....

L-E story: "Part of the erotic movie “Fifty Shades of Grey” was shown in a West Virginia high school classroom this week after students convinced their teacher to let them watch it as a reward for good work.
* The Charleston Daily Mail reports that the teacher apparently didn’t know what the film was about. * Hampshire High principal Jeff Woofter says the film was shut down after 10 minutes when an assistant principal walked by and saw what they were watching" -- "teacher apparently didn't know what the film was about"? ...Right off we know this is lie.. I have... won't for that matter.. read the book nor seen the movie.. but I know it's not what I want to watch with my wife, much less my young adult children.. but the giveaway is that the movie was showing for 10 minutes when the assistant-principal saw it, so how did the teacher not see in the 9 minutes/59 seconds prior to the assistant-principal walking by?

---

You know.. in the above story, it was stated that "It is unclear if the students or teacher will face disciplinary action.".. you got to be kidding me..

This ad ran in today's edition of the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer:

"all the allotted grant funds have been expended to assist thousands of residents in Muscogee County" - Excuse me.. seems like some money was still available to run this ad.. I wonder how this can possibly be considered an expenditure that assists those in need?
