Stupid machine is acting like a Malaysian Airlines jet…it keeps crashing. This probably won’t work, but I’ll give it a try.
Ever been to a grade school talent show? We went to our granddaughters’ show on Tuesday. It was actually better than I expected. It’s a pre-K through 8th grade Catholic school, so each class had a distinct uniform. The pre-k-kindergarten group sang along with a recording of the old Sunday School song,wise man/foolish man (built his house upon the sand). I’m sure they practiced doing all the gestures in unison, but one just stared off looking for his mom, and another girl who will be the class clown grinned and danced to the tune in her head. There were skits, a first-grader read jokes off her note cards, one kid did a hula hoop, one had several duck calls he demonstrated, and the biggest surprise was a boy from Miss Isabel’s fifth grade class who pulled a violin out and announced he was going to play Orange Blossom Special. I was ready to cringe, since there’s nothing as ear-splitting as someone on the violin when they don’t know how to play. Apparently he started years ago because he was really good.
Three 8thgraders were hosting the show and they gave away ‘Mary’ awards, named after the school, St. Mary’s, to teachers in appreciation. There were certificates for best musician, most helpful, athletic, most compassionate,etc. There was an award for best principal (the head honcho lady) and one for knowing the most about the Saints. The priest won that one. They even had an award for the best janitor (they only have one). One of the kids ran to get him and when he came into the auditorium the room erupted. They really love this little man.
I know this is boring, but there’s a point. The children were all quiet, patient and respectful. My stepdaughter, who I consider one of my own kids, teaches at a public school in another city but sends her kids to Catholic school, like many other teachers do. There’s a reason for that.
This video is a tragic example of what public school teachers are subjected to when faced with trying to teach violent, ignorant savages anything useful. The 62 year old teaher took away the 16 year old ninth grader’s phone and was pummeled. In my day, this would have been unthinkable. Sadly, if the man had tried to defend himself or fight back, the little darlins’ mama and her baby daddy would appear out of nowhere to sue the poor man and the school to get a chunk of money. Our educational system has been destroyed by the teachers’ unions and the democrats the unions and welfare leeches vote for perennially.
Apparently the video has been removed…use your imagination.
“It’s troubling that in our society today students think that inside a school they can put their hands on each other and teachers as well,” said Jonathan Hodges, a veteran school board member. “I went online trying to find this video and I found numerous videos of teachers being attacked by their students.”

Attorney General nominee defends Obama immigration changes
If confirmed as attorney general, I would be myself. I would be Loretta Lynch,” the nominee told her Senate confirmation hearing as Republicans showered criticism on the current occupant of the job, Eric Holder. They said Holder was contemptuous of Congress and too politically close to Obama, and repeatedly demanded assurances that Lynch would do things differently.
“You’re not Eric Holder, are you?” Texas Republican John Cornyn, one of the current attorney general’s most persistent critics, asked at one point.
“No, I’m not, sir,” Lynch responded with a smile
If she were not as virulently racist as Barry is,she wouldn’t be there.
this is all a pile of horseshit.

But can Lynch as an investigator really be objective when it comes to her predecessor, who is currently in contempt of Congress over Fast and Furious scandal document obstruction and would probably warrant investigation from an unbiased successor? After all, Lynch goes way back with Holder’s wife.

“I was literally just trying to leave the meeting and I got caught in whatever Roorda and Kennedy had going on in their exchange,” said Cachet Currie, the woman who was pushed. “Roorda just jumped out into the aisle, pushed me over, and tried to get to Kennedy. I’m like ‘wait a minute, don’t push me.’ Then he started going off on me, pushing me.”

Obama speech in India: On him being Muslim, “as if that were somehow a bad thing”
Obama] noted the persistent false rumors that he is a Muslim, not a Christian. “There have been times where my faith has at times been questioned by people who don’t know me, or they’ve said that I adhere to a different religion, as if that were somehow a bad thing,” Obama said. What is a “bad thing” is that Obama is a pathological liar, and he has hidden so much from the American people, it’s hard to know what is and isn’t true.

Abortion Protesters Don’t Count?
It was a breathtaking sight.
Except virtually no one watching the networks ever saw it. CBS gave the story a paltry 15 seconds. NBC “News” blacked it out entirely. So too did ABC “News.”
Liberal journalists have made it perfectly clear over the years that only radical leftist protesters count. In fact, two or three of them together matter more than hundreds of thousands of social conservatives. The “problem”? You could argue that social conservatives march peacefully, prayerfully, with no violent clashes with the police and no destruction of property, and since it doesn’t bleed, it doesn’t lead.

Thanks, Pete. Just before taking that picture, I took this one:
Me and youngest son took a little drive through Ferguson Sunday night while he was still wearing tactical law enforcement gear from an earlier event. For some reason, that made him nervous. But all was calm and we didn’t have any trouble. It was a good opportunity for life lessons, too. When I got back into the car after stopping to take a leak in a local convenience store (that hadn’t been looted yet), I pointed out to my son that the majority of people in Ferguson were really good folks. It’s not like it’s Chicago, for Pete’s sake. 😉 When I held the door open for a young black woman as I was leaving the store, she said: “Thank you, Sir!” I told him: “You see? Not everybody’s a ghetto rat around here.” Son of MonteCristo just retorted: “She just said that because you’re an old man!” Good times.

Stevie Wonder Uses Funeral For Gospel Legend To Rail Against Racists Thwarting Obama’s Agenda Because He’s Black…
Stevie Wonder was one of many high profile performers at gospel legend Andraé Crouch’s funeral in Los Angeles on Jan 21. But some funeral attendees were surprised when Wonder made political statements at the event instead of focusing on the Grammy-winning singer’s life and accomplishments.
The roots of racial hatred run deep
Video at link
Wonder’s remarks from the event can be heard in the video below around the 1:20 mark. There, Wonder, 64, says: “We live in a time where I believe we have a president that truly wanted to see the world come together, to see this nation come together, but yet too much, too many people are judging their dislike of him based on the color of his skin. And I know there are some who say, ‘No that’s not true,’ but I’m telling you what I see.”

Grunt: “Um,… because we was drunk?”
If I was at the desktop, I’d search my bookmarks for the story I read recently, from the home town when I was a yout’. Some local teens drove down to Texas and stole … I’m trying to remember what. Something like Sam Houston’s tombstone, but not that. I could guess which ones of my older brothers’ friends they were, but I don’t know who did that particular bit of thievery. I know a guy who would know – heck, I suspect he was in on it, based on the M.O. Anyway, somehow, they tracked whatever it was down to the home town and it was returned. Intact and unharmed. On condition nobody was named or charged. (Which narrows the perps to a few of the upper-crust families.) That’s how you pull a prank. A good one.
Busting up the dinosaur statue and dumping him – a scumbag move. They’re scumbags, regardless of whether alcohol was involved.
