The DUmmies are claiming the police have joined the insurrection and will defy the Governor’s orders to clear the Capitol at 4 PM today.

On Saturday night’s broadcast of “Geraldo at Large,”

I suspect Geraldo wasn't thrilled with Tobin's reporting. Rivera has been in "solidarity" with the protesters since the get-go.

What? There are nasty, critical, bitter, angry liberals out there? No way! /sarc

I thought all of those adjectives were implied anytime you mentioned the word liberal in the first place.

Did you see the nut screaming “FOX Lies!” over and over again in the reporter's ear? I'd think some of the nut's fellow lefties would realize how bad he's making them all look and pull him away. OTOH, I'm surprised some FOX reporter hasn't been physically attacked by these goons. That might be the final straw to wake up Americans to what a bunch of violent criminal thugs so many of these union “protesters” are.

Well the Democrats are the Taxtakers and the Republicans are the Taxpayers. The question is how much tax can the taxtakers take without the taxpayers running out of money?

Of course the unions are full of hate. They are seeing their power being diminished and gulp, might end up being like the “common people”. Oh no, not that.

I don’t usually watch Jerry Rivers, but I had the channel on FOX when Tobin did his report. If they hated FOX before they’re really going to be hating on them now. FOX told the truth about the protesters, and you just do that and get away with it these days.

‘There is hate in their eyes’

They're not like us. They place very little value on human life.

Ready, aim, fire!!!

Oh my- that brings me back to my misspent youth ;)

Oh, the white folks hate the black folks,
And the black folks hate the white folks.
To hate all but the right folks
Is an old established rule.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
Lena Horne and Sheriff Clarke are dancing cheek to cheek.
It’s fun to eulogize
The people you despise,
As long as you don’t let ‘em in your school.

Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks,
And the rich folks hate the poor folks.
All of my folks hate all of your folks,
It’s American as apple pie.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans ‘cause it’s very chic.
Step up and shake the hand
Of someone you can’t stand.
You can tolerate him if you try.

Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics,
And the Catholics hate the Protestants,
And the Hindus hate the Muslims,
And everybody hates the Jews.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
It’s National Everyone-smile-at-one-another-hood Week.
Be nice to people who
Are inferior to you.
It’s only for a week, so have no fear.
Be grateful that it doesn’t last all year!

Celebrate Civility

They’re such role models for the rest of us. Don’t we all want to be angry, selfish, immature, and vulgar? I mean, c’mon.

Oh, and our children too. Thank God we have such fine people “teaching” the kids how to act the same way. What a wonderful investment of our tax dollars. They deserve so much more.

The Lessons of the Joe Columbo Shooting

by Wilson Blair

Joe Columbo was a well-guarded organized crime boss who operated in New York in the '60s and '70s. In 1972, a mob rival paid someone to murder Columbo during a New York parade. Knowing that the man might be caught and reveal who had hired him, the employer took additional precautions to silence the killer.

As planned, the hired assassin rushed Columbo during the parade and shot the mob boss. Columbo did not die, but was permanently paralyzed and soon lost control of his crime syndicate.

When the gunman tried to make his escape, however, five large Sicilian gentlemen tackled him and covered him with their bodies. When the five men stood up, the man who had shot Columbo lay dead with two bullet holes in him. A revolver wrapped in friction tape lay on his body. The entire incident was captured on film by several television cameras.

The five Sicilian gentlemen refused to talk to the police. So thorough was their refusal that the police were not sure whether the men spoke English, or any other language, for that matter. Attempted interrogations in various dialects were all fruitless.

All five men tested positive for nitrates on both hands. None of the five, as near as could be determined, had a Social Security number. All five were released by the police after being held for less than 20 hours. None of the five were charged with any crime.

Some people might ask why a charge of conspiracy was not brought. The fact was that since no one said one word to the police, there was no starting point from which to build a case. The five men could have been tackling the assassin to disarm him, and the trigger of his gun got squeezed twice in the struggle. Without testimony, the prosecution could not prove anything, and the DA knew this. The five men walked away.

The lessons of the Columbo shooting are clear and uncomplicated:

  1. Eyewitness testimony is the least reliable in court, even when the actions are filmed. There can always be multiple explanations for what someone saw.
  2. Forensic evidence is much harder to refute, but it can be completely neutralized with a little foresight.
  3. You pick the time and place for action if you want to succeed--don't let someone else dictate the terms.
  4. Never talk to the police. Ever. About anything. You will only give them rope to make a noose for you. This is just as important to remember when you are completely innocent. Open your mouth and a case may get built on some fragment of your testimony, and you will take the fall for someone who was smart enough to keep his mouth shut.

Keep these lessons firmly in mind. They will serve you well in all circumstances, including the times when you've done nothing.

The Pandora's Box that is gov./union corruption has been partially opened up for the masses to see(whether or not the masses are too blind, stupid or lazy to see and do something about it is another matter).

...something tells me they(union/gov.)will do anything and everything to stop further exposure.

Richard Trumka(President, AFL-CIO)is a crook of the first order...a bigger lying weasel you'll never see.

This recession has been hard on a lot of folks, my own-self included....but it also exposed a lot of sewers that, if they were allowed to continue, would have eventually turned the U.S.A. into a third world sh thole....whether it be greed on Wall Street, K-Street, or the same on Main Street...it's been building like a ponzi scheme for decades(accelerated since Clinton).

...Unfortunately, the reality is...the exposure(to some...not all of it)may have came too late to turn things around. I don't envy the next generation.
