Is Karl Rove Even Trying Anymore?

Filed under: Real America, Failure, Elsewhere — admin @ 20:52

Karl Rove came out against the Arizona immigration bill. But his reasoning on why there will be no racial profiling shows the master is maybe going soft and is way off his game:

“Rove… objected to comments by critics including President Barack Obama that the law will lead to problems such as racial profiling by police.

‘These are modern police forces that respect the rights of people in their communities,’ Rove said. ‘They’re going to do it on the basis of reasonable suspicion that these people are here illegally, like they’re driving a car with a Mexican license plate or they can’t speak English or they don’t have a drivers license.’”

Yes,the police will figure out they are illegals because they don’t have drivers licenses after they are pulled over for not having drivers licenses. Also, if you don’t speak English, you better git learnin’.

And one of you… will be (hanging) out

How Fair Use is Gawker.tv Daily Show Coverage?

The Daily Show has always been forward thinking when it comes to Internet dissemination of its show. From the high-speed-internet beginning, it has made itself available, in full, on demand at its website. It’s likely they are of the opinion that more attention is good for drawing future viewers.

Bad Times Ahead for Lottery-Winning Missouri Man

Filed under: Gaaaah!, Real America, Elsewhere — admin @ 12:18

Regarding the news that a Missouri man won $258 million in the lottery, some perspective. From Canada comes another lottery story with the absolutely terrifying title “Lottery scam victim dies scarred:”

“Even in the last months of her life, Lorraine Teicht could not fully trust people.

She could never get over how three of her workmates had once turned on her.

Suspicious that she had filched a $5.7 million 6/49 lottery ticket that rightfully belonged to all four, they had hired a private eye to see if her lifestyle had dramatically changed.

When police finally charged Hafiz Malik in December 2007, the victory was bittersweet and too late. Three and a half years earlier, the Dupont St. convenience kiosk owner had told her that her ticket was not a winner, then went on to claim it as his own.

But she died of cancer on April 5 at age 56.”

The tale of Nadia Bloom is all over the news today, especially on Today. After spending four days lost in a Florida swamp, during which the media covered the event in its typical reserved style of perspective and nuance, rescuers found the girl. Below is an early video report of the search. Can you identify what’s wrong with these boneheads?

Camouflage? You’re a rescue party searching in dense green foliage for a little girl and you’re wearing camouflage? The wannabe boys playing special forces cult in this country has gotten out of control.
