From Diogenes’ Middle Finger:
The Reinvigorated Thought Police
In the space of just a few weeks, the quality of American freedom has been cheapened and its future made uncertain by a renewed assault of left-wingers bent on having their own way and running roughshod over all other opinions in the process.
This intolerance is political. It is issue-driven. It is meant to ensure a leftist agenda prevails despite legality, logic or popular support. They often exaggerate their claims of support by quoting phony polls and statistics said to reinforce their views.
Despite liberal declarations in 2008 that America was entering a “post-racial” era, the race card seems to be played more than every. Free speech through political contributions (from conservatives, at least) is under fire even though the U.S. Supreme Court, for one, continues to invalidate onerous campaign finance restrictions. Americans who have spoken out on the issues of traditional marriage have found themselves attacked, protested and forced out of public and private positions they have earned on merit because they dare to hold views counter to the mob.
These leftist have sought to imprint their opinions on America through the media, public institutions and schools. Anyone who is found to hold beliefs counter to theirs are smeared as racist, traditionalist, sexist or homophobic because what this evil minority has not yet been able to do is stop the exchange of ideas that Americans have come to appreciate and is still guaranteed by our Constitution.

Obama: Only ‘Two to Three Months’ Left to Pass Amnesty
Twenty-two senators recently denounced Obama in a letter for threatening the “entire constitutional system” by essentially nullifying the nation’s immigration laws.
“Your actions demonstrate an astonishing disregard for the Constitution, the rule of law, and the rights of American citizens and legal residents,” the senators wrote in a letter to Obama. “Our entire constitutional system is threatened when the Executive Branch suspends the law at its whim and our nation’s sovereignty is imperiled when the commander-in-chief refuses to defend the integrity of its borders.”
Barry’s response was probably terse:
‘What’s your point?’
This will probably get rammed through during the lame duck as the dems and unseated establishment GOP make their exit.

Obama Releases 36,000 Illegal Alien Criminals
From Rush yesterday:
Okay, well, let’s look at these 36,000 individuals released by ICE. CBS News breaks down who some of these people are. They have 193 homicide convictions and 426 sexual assault convictions.
The president just said, “Hey, hey, these people are woven into the fabric of our communities! Their kids are going to school with our kids. Most of ’em are not making trouble; they’re not causing crimes.” They have 303 kidnapping convictions, 1,075 aggravated assault convictions, 1,160 stolen vehicle convictions, 9,187 dangerous drug convictions, 16,070 drunk or drugged driving convictions, 303 flight escape convictions.”
Of the 36,000 people released, 28,000 of ’em have some sort of serious criminal conviction!
Those are the ICE released that was announced. This is what Lamar Smith of Texas is calling a federally sanctioned prison break.

Oprah acquires rights to Sam series
The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) announced on Wednesday that it had purchased the rights to a documentary series that will follow the life of Michael Sam. Terms were undisclosed, but sources said that negotiations to make the deal took two months.
The Rams are stuck:he was drafted near the end,which means they do not think much of his talent.If he cut him because he’s not good enough to make the team,there will be much wailing and lamentations about cutting him just because he smokes wieners.
it’s sickening how they mocked Tim Tebow for being a Christian and fall all over themselves over this guy.

CONFIRMED: Tea Party Donors “Audited” 1,000%+ More Than Others
These donor lists are proof that Lois Lerner was ignoring internal protections in order to target donors for audit based on their political beliefs. Lerner abused her power to try to intimidate conservatives into silence by having their taxes audited, which is a clear violation of the law.

Bill Clinton: It Took Hillary Six Months to Recover
Missed in Bill Clinton’s mockery of Karl Rove today was that he blew up the official account of Hillary Clinton’s near-instantaneous recovery from her December 2012 episode. The former president said it took Hillary six months to recover, as ABC News reports:
“They went to all this trouble to say she had staged what was a terrible concussion that required six months of very serious work to get over,” he said. “It’s something she never low-balled with the American people, never tried to pretend it didn’t happen.”

Bill and Hillary Clinton auction off a private lunch date
The Clinton Foundation is hoping to bring in at least $250,000 for the “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity” with an online auction ending May 29.
The winning bidder and a guest will be treated to between 45 minutes and an hour with the former president and former secretary of state and first lady, during a meal at the foundation’s headquarters in New York City. The lunch, which also includes a photo with the Clintons, will be scheduled within a year of the auction.
“Clinton Foundation”=shell for dodging taxes on money they extract from stupid people.How does a not-for-profit charity get $50 million in debt???Hmmm??

The Intolerant Hypocrisy of America’s ‘Tolerant’ President
Clearly thrilled beyond belief, via a White House statement, Barack Obama congratulated Michael Sam, the Rams, and the NFL for “taking an important step forward in our Nation’s journey.” After all, knowing Sam’s sexual preference is sure to have a huge impact on next year’s football season.
Here’s the problem with that heartwarming sentiment: just days prior to Obama’s message to Michael, real-estate expert David Benham and his twin brother Jason’s fixer-upper show Flip it Forward, which was due to premier in October, was canceled by Home and Garden TV because a left-wing activist group exposed the brothers, calling them “anti-gay extremists.”
They believe in traditional marriage,therefore they are fair game for verbal abuse from the oh-so-tolerant left.

Circuit Clerk Brown’s husband subpoenaed in grant probe
federal authorities, who already have requested documents from two state agencies regarding Gov. Pat Quinn’s troubled Neighborhood Recovery Initiative, are taking a closer look at Cook’s role in receiving grant money from the program.
It’s the second, ongoing probe into Cook that is also looking at how monies were dispensed from the $54 million anti-violence program.
The other is a state grand jury investigation that is in part looking at a piece of property Cook and Brown received for free from a Brown political donor, then sold for $100,000.
Just more Chicago democrat corruption;nothing to get excited about.

Former Abortion Clinic Owner: We Pushed Sex Ed on Kids to Create a Market for Abortion
Everett, who left the abortion industry after a Christian business counselor she hired lead her to Christ, also talked about how damaging government-funded sex education programs are. In her speech at the Rose Dinner, she took aim at the programs for stealing away the innate modesty of children and creating a rift between children and their parents. She says that the programs aim to teach children that talking to their parents about sex is uncomfortable and then they offer to be the people the children turn to for support. She says that girls are then provided with low dose birth control, which is ineffective if not taken at the same time each and every day, which is close to impossible for any teenager. When the girls get pregnant, they then turn to abortion clinics, she says.

GOP: We’ll move immigration reform if we take back Senate
Senate Republicans say they’ll try to pass immigration reform legislation in the next two years if they take back the Senate in November.
The Republicans say winning back the Senate will allow them to pass a series of bills on their own terms that have a better chance of winning approval in the House.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), a central member of the coalition that passed a comprehensive reform bill in the Senate last year, said he would craft a better legislative approach if Republicans control the upper chamber in 2015.
That would give his party a chance to pass immigration legislation before the presidential election, when Hispanic voters will be crucial to winning the White House.
It is heartbreaking to watch a Party I was once a proud member of commit suicide in exchange for cash from big businesses who just want cheap labor.Hispanics have never and WILL never vote republican.Its just sad to see it and know there’s nothing we can do about it.
