A New Hampshire lawmaker who said that the bombing of the Boston Marathon may have been a government “black ops” conspiracy resigned this week. Just a week after the Boston bombings, the birther lawmaker had posted a link to an Alex Jones video on Glenn Beck’s Facebook page. Tremblay suggested that Saudi nationals, Secretary of State John Kerry and “black ops” soldiers had conspired to carry out the attack.
New Hampshire Republican State Committee Chairwoman Jennifer Horn issued a statement on Thursday applauding the resignation and calling Tremblay “unfit for public office.” A statement from the New Hampshire Democratic Party said that the “resignation was long past due.”

"House Republicans are rebelling against the key recommendation of a party-sanctioned post-mortem: Embrace 'comprehensive immigration reform' or suffer crippling losses among Hispanic voters in 2016 and beyond."
"Widespread rejection of warnings from establishment Republicans goes beyond that, however. Many activists say the party simply needs to articulate its conservative principles more skillfully, without modifying any policies, even after losing the popular vote in five of the past six presidential elections."

"If you follow American politics day by day, tweet by tweet, poll by poll, and speech by speech, it's easy to lose sight of the biggest story over the past five years -- just how much change (both socially and demographically) this country has witnessed over the past four years. The nation has its first African-American president who won re-election a year ago. A majority of Americas now support gay marriage, and the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that married same-sex couples are entitled to federal benefits. The country is on track to be a majority-minority nation 30 years from now. And the Senate is poised to pass immigration legislation giving undocumented immigrants a path to citizenship. Taken together, this is a stunning amount of social change in a very short period of time."
"And all of that change helps to explain much of the partisanship and politics over the past four years. After all, when one side is pursuing change, the other side is often resisting it."

Starting today, Americans for Prosperity, (the Koch brothers’ propaganda arm) will run an ad, the first of several that are planned, to attack Obamacare. This marks the official opening salvo of the 2014 election campaign. With no accomplishments, no remotely popular vision of the country, on the cusp of possibly killing immigration reform, and perhaps admitting (at least to themselves) that Benghazi and the IRS are not going to be Barack Obama’s undoing after all, Republicans have been reduced to grasping at their final straw: frightening people about health-care reform.

to bad it wasn't picture of any number of reality TV stars that launched the up and coming generation.....
point being...get used to knowing your neighbor via voyeurism/internet/facebook etc etc.....
if it wasn't a gun it could be a gallon of clorox or a stupid pressure cooker and sh!t you can gather from your local walmart made by the engines that put $$ into your 401k/nest egg, money market etc, ie: DOW chemicals, johnson/johnson etc etc.....
and the best part is....I bet Pelosi has a grand old investment in all this crap...as does the guy with the gun...
...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......
The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Republicans: “Neanderthals fighting with Cro-Magnons”
Quoted Text
Democratic strategist Paul Begala on Sunday asserted that infighting between different factions of Republicans appeared just to be “Neanderthals fighting with Cro-Magnons” as the party lunged further and further to the right.
During a panel discussion on CNN, Democratic Pollster Cornell Belcher said that internal arguments about policies like National Security Agency (NSA) surveillance showed that Republicans were having difficulty reacting to social change in America.
“Unfortunately for us in Congress right now, you have this civil war unfolding in Congress and it’s making Congress completely dysfunctional,” Belcher explained. “America, your Congress does not work because of this civil war that’s going on.”
Begala added that the civil war also wasn’t working for the Republican Party politically. “I checked, party identification — the percentage of Americans who call themselves Republicans — all-time low, lower than Watergate, only 21 percent say that they’re Republicans today,” Begala noted. “That’s a catastrophe.”
“Republicans have become more ideologically conservative, they’ve moved farther from the mainstream, and they’re more fractured,” he continued. “Usually when you become more extreme — more left in my party, more right in the Republicans’ — you at least get some cohesion. Here you have a much more conservative party than 20 years ago and a much more fractured party.”
“The Neanderthals are fighting with Cro-Magnons, the neoliths hate the paleoliths. It’s great. I love it as a Democrat.”

Remember this Gilberton Police Chief??? (Yea the dufus who shot his finger off) The GunHugger is back in the news again, this time threatening the city council!
Quoted Text
Gilberton Police Chief Mark Kessler uploaded another video to YouTube on Monday. In the video, Kessler shoots at a picture of an evil “tyrant” clown that he calls “libtard Eric.”
The Vice-President of the Gilberton Borough Council is named Eric Boxer. Kessler has repeatedly blamed Boxer for instigating his suspension.
“Kessler is a ticking time bomb who must be removed from his position immediately,” said Michael Morrill, executive director of Keystone Progress. “His suspension is over this week. This video is clearly intended to intimidate Gilberton Council members before they decide on his future. Kessler’s continued intimidation of people he disagrees with has created a climate of fear in Gilberton and beyond. It is outrageous to allow him to continue to carry a badge and a gun while he repeatedly intimidates citizens.”

I wonder why, there were some asking the people to please not have any shootings during the march. Then you have scenes like this, hell I wouldn't go either

The foxes are inviting the chickens into their den...big surprise the chickens refused... If they had gone, they would have been ridiculed and heckled,excused of being disingenuous and pandering... which would have made the evening news...exactly what the organizers would want.
It's same same reason liberal Dems refuse to speak at an NRA convention....a no win scenario.
