Wow: NFL Owner Steps Up In Amazing Way To Help Families Of Charleston Victims : B. Christopher Agee
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 05:29 PMIn the wake of an act that exposed one shooter's inner evil, several stories of compassion, kindness and redemption have been able to take root. http://www.westernjournalism.com/theres-only-one-comment-on-accused-church-shooter-dylann-roofs-facebook-page-and-its-stunning/ http://www.westernjournalism.com/watch-daughter-of-charleston-victim-addresses-the-shooting-suspect-with-3-incredible-words/
One of the acts of generosity toward the grieving families of nine Charleston, S.C., parishioners fatally shot last week came from Carolina Panthers Owner Jerry Richardson. According to one Twitter post by State Rep. Bakari Sellers, D-S.C., Richardson sent a letter on behalf of his NFL franchise promising a donation totaling $100,000 to benefit the families and church involved. http://allenbwest.com/2015/06/look-whos-paying-for-the-funeral-of-the-sc-shooting-victims/ Jerry Richardson and the Carolina Panthers donated $100,00.00 to the victims families That sum, the letter explained, would be divided equally among the nine victims' families, each of which would receive $10,000. The remaining $10,000 is earmarked for a memorial to be placed at the church.
News of the gesture quickly spread across social media, with many commenters praising Richardson. http://www.westernjournalism.com/wow-nfl-owner-steps-up-in-amazing-way-to-help-families-of-charleston-victims/?utm_campaign=54ebe14371e7fc692400399a&utm_source=BoomTrain&utm_medium=email&utm_content=recommended&bt_alias=eyJ1c2VySWQiOiIzYTBhMjU0YS1kMjM1LTQzNTctYjFiZi05YzBiNzk1Y2JjZDAifQ%3D%3D
Limbaugh: Confederate Flag is the Legacy of Democrats Gov. Clinton presided over Confederate Flag Day, signed bill dedicating star in Arkansas flag to
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 05:09 PMSaying he knew he was "spitting against the wind" by bringing it up, Rush Limbaugh said Monday that the Confederate flag is "the legacy of the Democrats, not Republicans." One of the examples he gave: Bill Clinton, who as governor of Arkansas repeatedly presided over Confederate Flag day with no objections and in 1987 signed a bill dedicating one of the stars in the Arkansas flag to "commemorate the Confederate States of America." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/22/bill-clinton-arkansas-confederate_n_7638542.html ftp://www.arkleg.state.ar.us/acts/1987/Public/116.pdf
"Folks, do you realize the Confederate flag flies because of the Democrat Party?" began Limbaugh. "Do people even care anymore about truth, objective truth, ontological certitude?"
Limbaugh went on to explain that "there's a name" connected to the flying of the Confederate flag on statehouse grounds: former SC governor and Democrat Sen. Ernest "Fritz" Hollings, of "There's too much consumin' goin' on out there!" fame. https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Ernest_Hollings http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/account/login?return=/videos/38/20847
Asking "When did this become a Republican problem?" Limbaugh pointed out that while a Democrat had the Confederate flag first put up in SC, it was a Republican who first tried to get it removed:
LIMBAUGH: It was a Republican, ladies and gentlemen, a conservative Republican governor who first tried to get the Confederate flag removed from atop the statehouse. And, by the way, that conservative Republican governor got no support from the local NAALCP. In fact, when that all happened, the Democrats used the flag against the Republican governor, and it may have cost him the election. That was not that long ago. http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/limbaugh-confederate-flag-legacy-democrats
For another example of Democrat Confederate flag hypocrisy, Limbaugh flashed back to the 1980s when Bill Clinton was governor of Arkansas (hyperlinks added):
Cornel West: Obama the First 'N*ggerized' President "White supremacy is American as cherry pie." : Bradford Thomas
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 05:03 PMOn CNN Monday, civil rights activist Cornel West shamed President Obama for what he characterized as allowing himself to be too "scared and intimated" to truly stand up for African-Americans and fight against "white supremacy."
West, honorary chair of the Democratic Socialists of America made the comments in response to Obama's choice to use the N-word in a statement about the mass shooting at a historic black church in Charleston by white supremacist Dylann Roof. http://www.dsausa.org/cornel_west http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/obama-country-not-cured-racism
Calling white supremacy as "American as cherry pie," West blasted Obama for failing to be the fearless leader the black community needs him to be.
"Too many black people are niggerized," West said, explaining that the word meant a black person who is too fearful to really confront white racism. "I would say the first black president has become the first niggerized black president," said West.
WEST: You can't talk about wealth and inequality, you can't talk about education, you can't talk about massive unemployment and under employment and you can't talk about drones being dropped on people in other parts of the world without talking about white supremacy and its ways in which it operates. It doesn't have to be overt. The president is right about that. But too many black people are niggerized. I would say the first black president has become the first niggerized black president.
CNN ANCHOR: What do you mean by that?
WEST: A niggerized black person is a black person who is afraid and scared and intimidated when it comes to putting a spotlight on white supremacy and fighting against white supremacy. So when many of us said we have to fight against racism, what were we told? "No, he can't deal with racism because he has other issues, political calculations. He's the president of all America, not just black America." We know he's president of all America but white supremacy is American as cherry pie. http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/cornel-west-obama-first-nggerized-president
American Tax-Deductible Contributions Pay For Defense Of Arab Terrorists in Israel American Jews are funding the families of Arab terrorists who kill
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 04:59 PMA few days ago in these pages we wrote about an extreme left-wing American Jewish organization, The New Israel Fund (NIF), which has the constant agenda of harming the State of Israel through a variety of mechanisms. http://www.truthrevolt.org/commentary/commentary-if-you-support-nif-you-support-boycott-israel
The latest – as reported by Israeli media today – is that the Israeli Supreme Court has rejected a petition by an NIF-supported organization to allow the wife of Ghassan Abu Jamal who murdered five Israelis in November 2014 in a brutal massacre during morning prayers in Jerusalem to remain in Jerusalem. Rightfully, courts have ruled that the terrorists' wife – who is not a citizen of Israel - will not be allowed to remain in the Holy City.
Hamoked- an NIF grantee - has announced they will appeal this decision in court on July 13, 2015 – and until that time Nadia Abu Jamal is not allowed in Jerusalem. The New Israel Fund opposes "collective punishment" – and Hamoked's supposed mission is to assist Palestinians "whose rights are violated due to Israel's policies." http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-4598738,00.html http://www.hamoked.org/home.aspx
Separately, Israeli courts also recently rejected a petition from Hamoked which seeks to allow "family unification between Israeli Arabs and Gaza Strip residents." http://www.hamoked.org/Document.aspx?dID=Updates1501
In the past, Israel's State Prosecutor concluded that HaMoked's "self-presentation as 'a human rights organization' has no basis in reality and is designed to mislead." This organization – which is largely devoted to the defense of Arab terrorists - as a grantee of the New Israel Fund, has received $688,901 worth of grants from them between 2008-2013. http://www.ngo-monitor.org/article/_israeli_state_prosecutor_recognises_bias_of_israeli_human_rights_ngos_hamoked_and_b_tselem_
As The Algemeiner Journal reported New Israel Fund is "a controversial foundation that supports dozens of Israel related causes, many of which are considered hostile to the Jewish State." http://observer.com/2014/11/new-israel-fund-supports-groups-that-hurt-the-jewish-state/ http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/exclusive-american-tax-deductible-contributions-pay-defense-arab-terrorists-israel
Thank the New Israel Fund for United Nations Report Accusing Israel Of War Crimes Netanyahu: The U.N. Human Rights Council does "everything but w
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 04:51 PMToday, the United Nations issued their report on Operation Protective Edge, and found that Israel may have "committed war crimes." Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the report biased, noting Monday "...that the U.N. Human Rights Council that commissioned the inquiry does "everything but worry about human rights." http://www.cbsnews.com/news/benjamin-netanyahu-israel-prime-minister-united-nations-2014-gaza-report-bias/
Israel's war effort was widely supported by the left, center and right of the Israeli political spectrum as the entire nation was under relentless rocket attack. The Israeli government elected to not cooperate with said UN investigation, due to the UN's long-standing anti-Israel bias.
Yet, when there's an avenue for which Israel can be criticized, one can count on The New Israel Fund (NIF) being there. http://www.algemeiner.com/2015/05/07/the-new-israel-fund-is-beyond-defense/
The extremist organization granted hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to organizations - including B'Tselem, Breaking the Silence, Adalah, Physicians for Human rights & Hamoked: Center for Defense of the Individual – that published reports and lead the campaign to delegitimize the Israel Defense Forces. They have received extensive worldwide media coverage which has harmed Israel, and leaves Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officers vulnerable to biased attempts to arrest in the International Criminal courts. Just yesterday, former IDF Chief of Staff Shaul Mofaz reportedly "escaped arrest for war crimes" in London. Israel was unable to receive diplomatic immunity for Mofaz – and similar situations have happened in the UK to former Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni former Shin Bet head Avi Dichter, Moshe Ya'alon, Dan Meridor, and others. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/197006#.VYlx1PlVhBd
Those who support the New Israel Fund should know that their partner in attacking the IDF worldwide is Palestinian organizations, and the UN. What does that say about the intentions of the NIF?
In July 2014, an organization named Gisha participated in a joint appeal to the defense minister by several NIF organizations: "The call to residents to evacuate their homes in the northern Gaza Strip raises suspicions of widespread and fatal harm to the civilian population and to damage to their property... Israel cannot exempt itself from responsibility for the grievous harm to civilians that we are witnessing since the beginning of the current campaign (as well as in the past), on the grounds that Hamas and other organizations are operating within the civilian population or that they are using the residents as human shields. The responsibility for the assaults that Israel is launching in the Gaza Strip lies with Israel alone... deliberate attacks on the civilian population and its property constitute a harsh violation of international humanitarian law." http://www.acri.org.il/he/32004 http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/exclusive-thank-new-israel-fund-united-nations-report-accusing-israel-war-crimes
Baltimore Mayor Elected As President of U.S. Conference of Mayors "It's a nice feather in her cap. But I think the people of Baltimore want
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 04:30 PMAmid a crime spree that is devastating her city and the tumult of a highly scrutinized case involving six officers, Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake has been elected the new president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/politics/bs-md-ci-srb-position-20150618-story.html
Rawlings-Blake took over as mayor in 2010 when her predecessor Sheila Dixon resigned after an initial guilty verdict on corruption charges. Rawlings-Blake became a nationally recognized name when Freddie Gray, a black man, died while in police custody and the mayor subsequently seemed to say that she would give the rioters who "wished to destroy" the "space to do so." Since the Baltimore State's Attorney charged six officers with a laundry list of crimes for Gray's "murder," Baltimore has been plagued by a wave of violence. http://www.truthrevolt.org/search/site/Rawlings-Blake http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/2010/0106/Baltimore-Mayor-Sheila-Dixon-resigns-as-part-of-plea-deal http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/baltimore-mayor-i-certainly-used-wrong-phrase http://www.truthrevolt.org/search/site/baltimore%20states%20attorney http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/officers-charged-death-eddie-gray http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/violence-baltimore-surges
Despite the grim scene in Baltimore, however, Rawlings-Blake's peers voted for her to be the next president of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, making her the first African-American to hold the highly influential position.
"The systemic issues we have in cities ... are problems we cannot solve alone," said Rawlings-Blake in an interview. "I intend to use my role as president to advocate for those very specific needs, whether it's food access, education, poverty or neighborhood investment."
"When I became mayor, nobody was checking for Baltimore as far as national profile for leadership," Rawlings-Blake said. "When you're president, you have the opportunity to advocate on a national level. I can't think of a more important time to have that visibility when we have so many significant needs in our city."
Mayor Rawlings-Blake signaled that she would focus on the "urban agenda" in her new influential position. "It's important that we put the urban agenda on the map," Rawlings-Blake said. "We have issues that need to be at the forefront, whether you are a Democrat or a Republican. More than 80 percent of the country lives in metro areas."
As the Baltimore Sun highlights, while many are cheering her election, "others question whether it will cause her to be out of town too much in the aftermath of April's rioting": http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/politics/bs-md-ci-srb-position-20150618-story.html http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/baltimore-mayor-elected-president-us-conference-mayors
Uber Driver Stops Mass Shooting with Gun, Now Uber Bans Guns : Trey Sanchez
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 04:22 PMIt was reported in April that an Uber driver with a concealed-carry permit shot and wounded 22-year-old Everardo Custodio, who had opened fire on a crowd in front of the driver's vehicle. Thanks to the driver's quick response and access to a weapon, a mass shooting was avoided with no injuries reported other than Custodio who laid incapacitated on the ground bleeding from gunshot wounds to the back, thigh, and shin. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-uber-driver-shoots-gunman-met-0420-20150419-story.html
But in a bid "to make sure riders and drivers feel comfortable," Uber announced Friday that it had changed its policy on guns, banning drivers and passengers from carrying, even if legal. Previous to the policy change, said to have taken place on June 10, the company abided by local laws regarding carrying weapons. Anyone found in violation of the new policy risks losing access to the service. This ruling also applies to any affiliates of Uber as well.
According to the Associated Press, Uber made the decision after reviewing feedback from passengers and drivers. http://www.sfgate.com/business/technology/article/Uber-says-drivers-and-passengers-banned-from-6338626.php http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/06/21/uber-bans-guns-after-driver-uses-one-to-stop-attempted-mass-shooting/
Obama Shows His True Colors During Charleston Speech by Mychal Massie
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 03:13 PMObama had the opportunity to bond a nation together, bringing solace and comforting words to a nation, a people, and a state in the aftermath of the Charleston, S.C., mass murders. But that would have been asking Obama to at least pretend to be something other than the pernicious liar and anti-Constitution neo-Leninist he is.
The nation needed to hear words of comfort from its leader and leaders. America did not need politicians attempting to gain points embezzled from the blood of those murdered. President George W. Bush spoke hope and reassurance to America on 9/11, when those Obama defends committed the greatest mass murder in American history. President Ronald Reagan gave America a vision of hope and prosperity of a shining city on a hill. Even reading President Reagan's farewell address today causes one to be proud and filled with hope for the future.
But Obama's speech at a time America needed reassurance from its leaders was filled with mordancy from the lips of a pusillanimous mockery of leadership.
I'm not politically correct, neither am I remotely hesitant to call a spade a spade. It's a quantifiable fact that the stenotopic neo-Leninist in the White House has time and again brazenly lied. He ignores the fact that some who were listening to his so-called speech, far exceeded the Flesch-Kincaid levels his speeches are generally directed at.
He chose the solemnity of the mass killings to ratchet up his assault on the American Constitution. A Constitution, he supposedly swore an oath to uphold and defend.
Obama lost no time blaming guns for the killings. Let's be honest; I can leave my gun loaded with the safety off and one in the chamber lying on my kitchen table for the next ten years and I guarantee that my gun won't kill anyone no matter how many arguments or even fistfights were to take place in that kitchen during those ten years. Guns do not kill people; people kill people with guns, bricks, ice picks, knives, hammers, and whatever else a person is creative enough to use. Should we ban those items?
It is a painfully simple expression, but if guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns. Have the draconian anti-gun laws prevented gun violence in Chicago, New York, or New Jersey? Perhaps Obama will admit that he has contributed to violent gun deaths vis-a'-vis his illegal gunrunning operation called Fast and Furious? Will he admit those illegal weapons are now being brought back across our borders and are being used by gangs?
Obama was lying we he fallaciously said: "At some point, we as a country will have to reckon with the fact that this type of mass violence does not happen in other advanced countries."
Someone should have told "Mr. Harvard" that: Britain has the highest rate of violent crime in Europe, more so than the United States or South Africa. They also have the second highest overall crime rate in the European Union. In 2008, Britain had a violent crime rate nearly five times higher than the Untied States (2034 vs. 446 per 100,000 population). (http://www.gunfacts.info/gun-control-myths/guns-in-other-countries/)
Either Obama knew he was lying in which case he should be publicly rebuked or he has surrounded himself with liars and anarchists. If I were given to betting I would bet both to be the case.
I repeat that which I have said often: "Never in my life, inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed such dishonesty in a political leader. He is the most mendacious figure I have ever witnessed. Even by the low standards of his presidential predecessors, his narcissistic, contumacious arrogance is unequalled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to be elevated to sainthood."
During times of crisis, America needs a leader who can lead her in prayer and comfort that comes only from God above.
But, that's not Obama's style. His style is to foment animus and resentment.
If I were in office, I would tell people that evil exists amongst us and that the act of the alleged shooter was evil on every quantifiable level. I would tell the people that the shooter didn't represent the will and character of America or her citizens. I would have put aside my golf game and I would have cancelled my wife's latest taxpayer funded welfare "spend and splurge" excursion and together we would have gone to Charleston where I would have made it abundantly clear that any introduction of race mongering by the race pimps would earn my full presidential wrath.
If I were in office I would adjure all the people to join my family and me on bended knees as we offered prayers to God in heaven. If I were in office I would lead. I wouldn't seize upon tragedy to call for the further deconstruction of America.
But then I am Mychal Massie, a Christian man who loves America. I'm not an unlicensed pettifogger and community organizer committed to fundamentally destroying America. http://mychal-massie.com/premium/obama-shows-his-true-colors-during-charleston-speech/?inf_contact_key=235d2ec0391ea28e6c6dc978248f2daf09984d39eb45d7bf6fcdb12716494e6a
Hillary and History : Thomas Sowell
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 02:39 PMThere are no sure things in politics, but Hillary Clinton is the closest thing to a sure thing to become the Democrats' candidate for president in 2016.
This is one of the painful but inescapable signs of our time. There is nothing in her history that would qualify her for the presidency, and much that should disqualify her. What is even more painful is that none of that matters politically. Many people simply want "a woman" to be president, and Hillary is the best-known woman in politics, though by no means the best qualified.
What is Hillary's history? In the most important job she has ever held -- Secretary of State -- American foreign policy has had one setback after another, punctuated by disasters.
U.S. intervention in Libya and Egypt, undermining governments that were no threat to American interests, led to Islamic extremists taking over in Egypt and terrorist chaos in Libya, where the American ambassador was killed, along with three other Americans.
Fortunately, the Egyptian military has gotten rid of that country's extremist government that was persecuting Christians, threatening Israel and aligning itself with our enemies. But that was in spite of American foreign policy.
In Europe, as in the Middle East, our foreign policy during Hillary Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State was to undermine our friends and cater to our enemies.
The famous "reset" in our foreign policy with Russia began with the Obama administration reneging on a pre-existing American commitment to supply defensive technology to shield Poland and the Czech Republic from missile attacks. This left both countries vulnerable to pressures and threats from Russia -- and left other countries elsewhere wondering how much they could rely on American promises.
Even after Russia invaded Ukraine, the Obama administration refused to let the Ukrainians have weapons with which to defend themselves. President Obama, like other presidents, has made his own foreign policy. But Hillary Clinton, like other Secretaries of State, had the option of resigning if she did not agree with it. In reality, she shared the same flawed vision of the world as Obama's when they were both in the Senate.
Both of them opposed the military "surge" in Iraq, under General David Petraeus, that defeated the terrorists there. Even after the surge succeeded, Hillary Clinton was among those who fiercely denied initially that it had succeeded, and sought to discredit General Petraeus, though eventually the evidence of the surge's success became undeniable, even among those who had opposed it. http://townhall.com/columnists/thomassowell/2015/06/23/hillary-and-history-n2015842/page/full
Mother’s Incredible Act of Kindness After Seeing a Man With One Eye & One Leg on His Way to Charleston Church : Erica Ritz
from Doofiegirl on 06/23/2015 02:17 PMKayla Robinson Hall was bringing her three sons to the church in Charleston, South Carolina where nine people were shot and killed last week in a devastating attack when she came upon a man struggling to push his car to the gas station.
Though Hall was worried about bringing her young children to the scene of the tragedy, she decided that she needed to show her children "how good people can be and how united we can be even when things are very scary."
"While I was pumping gas I was looking around me. It was almost like the day after 9/11, when you just wanted to hug everybody you saw," she explained on The Glenn Beck Program Monday. "I went into the gas station and I kept trying to make eye contact with people and it just wasn't happening. And I went out; I was done pumping my gas and I just hear this gentleman say, 'Young lady!'"
The man had one eye and one leg, and "without even a thought of his age, his race, [or] the hat he was wearing," Hall said she ran to help the man push his car.
"He said, 'No ma'am,'" Hall continued. "And I said, 'I can push it! I'm strong! I want to help.' And he just said, 'I might have one eye and one leg ... but I can push this car. I just need you to move your car.'" Hall said she asked the man how he lost his eye and his leg, and he responded: "Serving my country in Desert Storm."
"He said, 'I'm on my way downtown to go to Mother Emanuel and the church.' And I said, 'So am I.' And we just hugged," Hall recalled.
The man said he just needed $6 to get downtown, but Hall was concerned about how he would get home after making it to the church.
"So I ran and got my wallet, and as I'm pumping I get to $6 and he said, 'That's good! That's good!' And I just waved him off and said, 'I know how much it costs to get downtown and I want you to get back,'" Hall said. "And so I kept going and then we hugged again and I asked him, 'Can I take a picture with you? I never want to forget your face.' http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2015/06/22/mothers-incredible-act-of-kindness-after-seeing-a-man-with-one-eye-one-leg-on-his-way-to-charleston-church/
