Benjamin Carson and Donald Trump lead in the polls. Trump is down in the CBS/New York Times poll to Carson.
Wednesday will have the third Republican debate. CNBC will host this debate at the University of Colorado in the city of Boulder. There will be ten candidates on stage to debate who can be a wiz in economics. Many of the candidates who are on stage will be the usual ones but who will be the center is up in the air. Today, a new poll shows a real competition for the top spot.
Ben Carson for the first time is leading in the national polls. The CBS/New York Times poll has the former neurosurgeon up by a few points against Donald Trump.
Trump who has been leading for months saw a decline in this poll. Carson who suspended his campaign for fundraising and promoting his newest book has gradually seen religious conservatives flock to his bandwagon.
The junk food media has been watching the back and forth between Trump and Carson. These two are extremely controversial candidates.
Trump already sparked outrage when he mocked Carson's religion. Trump considers his rival a "low energy candidate". I agree with Trump on that thing.
Carson is a Seventh Day Adventist and vegetarian. His soft spoken demeanor and "genius" skills makes him a pretty boring guy. I believe he's an opportunist who has no real capability of running government.
Conservatives are hoping Carson avoids playing "the race card" when he excels in the race for the nomination.
On GOP Sundays, Carson made some comments that got some attention. He said comments that were just as bad as Todd Akin.
When you look at the polls, many Republicans aren't excited about their candidates. I mean Trump still has the advantage on "populist outrage" and "a need for change". Carson has the advantage on "who can appeal" and "what conservatives stand for".
The polls have also been well for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). Rubio is facing criticism for being a relatively inept lawmaker. Rubio claims that he can't stand his job as a lawmaker. So why the fuck is he running for president? The president is the head of government.
Other candidates who are struggling but still in this race are Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Mike Huckabee, Chris Christie, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) and John Kasich.
The lower tier candidates Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Bobby Jindal, Rick Santorum, Jim Gilmore and George Pataki will host their debate in the early.
Teacher facing criticism after posing as Kanye West in blackface.
A Decatur, Alabama teacher may face a cannon firing for posting on social media his "cool" costume.
He and his wife wanted to go as America's most talked about reality couple. Unfortunately he put on the coal and started doing the "nah nah".
Heath Marrow is apologizing to the junk food media after his wife posted the picture of him in blackface as the rapper/producer/celebrity agitator Kanye West.
It soon made it to Reddit and went viral. Now his school is investigating the incident and may fire Marrow out the cannon.
He's a primary school educator who loves his job. He loves to teach and he has "many black friends".
“I didn’t know dressing up as a celebrity couple would cause so much controversy,” his wife Shannon Morrow told the junk food media. “There was no malicious intent in this costume. It’s for HALLOWEEN, the one time a year it is okay. Some of my husband’s best friends are black. There was no racial intent whatsoever.”
So as in "I'm not a racist" fashion, Heath and Shannon issue an apology to the local junk food media that covers the Huntsville-Decatur area.
To whom this may concern:
I would like to first apologize for my error in judgment. My intentions were not malicious or directed toward any certain group of people. I would also like to say that everyone who knows my character and knows my heart, knows that I have never seen color in my life. I wasn’t raised or taught that way and do not raise my children that way. I see people for who they are, and my wife and I go out of our way to help anyone we can in my profession as an educator. When deciding to dress up for a Halloween party, my wife and I made a decision based on celebrities and the political climate today. I do not want this to reflect on my school or school system based on my poor decision that I made. Again I apologize and this will not happen again.
Sincerely,
Heath Morrow
Kanye and his celebrity agitator wife Kim Kardashian-West have been in the news for their wacky family drama and the second bump her belly. There's talk about friction between the two.
Is divorce on the way says the junk food media?
For one thing, I don't believe anything on the internet. Second, who cares?
They are right now consoling Khloe in the wake of her ex-hubby Lamar Odom's tragic accident.
They care less about some nobody in Alabama.
Morrow, a 5th-grade teacher at Chestnut Grove Elementary School, went to a private Halloween party over the weekend with his wife.
Morrow's boss the superintendent Ed Nichols said the district is investigating the incident.
"We are saddened as a district by the action of a member of our staff that have offended members of our community, and most of all, have taken away from the focus of our children and the good things that are going on in our school district and with our children," Nichols said.
The country's most talked about celebrity couple got rumors of divorce in the air.
Nichols wouldn't comment on the teacher's current employment status with the school.
"As a school district, we are looking into this issue and seeking advice from our legal counsel, and I want to make sure that all the citizens of our community know that we do not condone this action or any action that would bring any offense to a person based on their race, their religion, or any other matter," Nichols said.
Nichols also didn't say anything about follow-up actions.
"Due to the ongoing investigations, I cannot talk about those procedures. However, I do plan to meet with leaders in our community to discuss this issue and seek their advice and their counsel on what we can do as a school district, for our staff and our students, to do a better job of being sensitive to those around us and their feelings," said Nichols.
Conservatives upset that Quentin Tarantino spoke out against police brutality. The controversial NYPD police union president is calling a boycott against Tarantino's projects.
There's no war on the police.
No one wants those in law enforcement killed. The law isn't scared to do their jobs. The law still hides behind the "blue wall of silence" when they see wrongdoing by one of their own.
Yeah those in the Black Lives Matter movement have sympathy for the slain officer Randolph Holder. We all mourn the lost of a dedicated lawman.
Those behind the badge use their power of enforcement to exploit the very communities they've sworn to protect. In the age of YouTube, there are some in law enforcement using bad judgement when engaging in contact with unarmed suspects.
With open carry laws in many states, the law can't determine who's legal or who's illegal.
For you see if you're a Black man with a conceal carry license, you may be killed by the law if there's a mistaken identity. If you're a White man with a conceal carry license, you might be able to walk into a building without a single peep from a person. If you have intentions of murdering people and you're a White person, you may massacre a handful of people before the law gets you.
There's a rise in heroin in White communities. Many White women are addicted to heroin. I know three people addicted to heroin. They're either dead or on the verge of being dead.
Black motorists are likely to be stop for minor traffic offenses more than any other race. Black motorists often have their vehicles searched even if there's no illegal activity. Racial profiling happens quite often. Black men are profiled by the law more than any race or gender.
White people who commit criminal acts are often diagnosed with mental issues. Black people who commit criminal acts are often labeled "thugs" and "Obama's children". Anyone who commits a criminal act and they're a Muslim, they are often labeled as terrorists.
That network is America's most watched in cable news. It's often labeled that network the most divisive. Those in the junk food media often blame that network for exploiting insensitive issues for ratings.
That network that promotes the narrative that #BlackLivesMatter embraces "cop killing" is prime real estate for people who believe this nonsense.
Conservative outrage at the controversial filmmaker Quentin Tarantino. He appears at Washington Park in New York City to protest police brutality within the New York Police Department.
I guess conservative agitators can't accept the fact Quentin Tarantino has the freedom of speech. After all, they can say the president is a "communist" and a "cop killer".
The "Rise Up! Stop Police Terror!" protest rally had a few hundred protesters. The high profile appearance of Tarantino gotten the junk food media's attention.
Of course, Tarantino isn't afraid to speak his mind. And what got the junk food media's attention (by which they've looped over and over) was the mention of "murder" and "cops".
"I'm a human being with a conscience," Tarantino said at the protest. "And if you believe there's murder going on, then you need to rise up and stand up against it. I'm here to say I'm on the side of the murdered. When I see murders, I do not stand by … I have to call a murder a murder and I have to call the murderers the murderers."
Now NYPD police union president complains and urges people to boycott his movies.
Patrick Lynch, the president who said that Bill de Blasio had "blood on his hands" once again emerges into the limelight to bitch about the filmmaker's remarks.
"It's no surprise that someone who makes a living glorifying crime and violence is a cop-hater, too," said Patrick Lynch, president of the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association. "It's time for a boycott of Quentin Tarantino's films."
"The police officers that Quentin Tarantino calls 'murderers' aren't living in one of his depraved big screen fantasies—they're risking and sometimes sacrificing their lives to protect communities from real crime and mayhem," Lynch said.
"New Yorkers need to send a message to this purveyor of degeneracy that he has no business coming to our city to peddle his slanderous 'cop fiction.'"
Okay ask James Blake if there's fiction! I mean the tennis star was pummeled to the ground.
Listen to the words of Harvey Superboy. He spoke about the opportunistic motives of Tarantino.
FBI head James Comey said that the Ferguson effect kind of makes policing a tad bit difficult.
He said that in the age of YouTube, this is making police officer's jobs even harder. He believes police officers will deliberately ignore criminal activity in order to do their jobs.
Nowadays you can whip out a camera phone and record an encounter with the law. Again, you have the right to film police officers. They are civil servants. They're human as well. They are obligated to follow the law as well.
When you put something on the internet, it's there forever. It's apart of the social media craze that driven the narrative #BlackLivesMatter.
The group has been actively protesting against unfair police encounters.
Shaun White, DeRay McKesson and Bree Newsome have been pushing this controversy into the mainstream.

And of course, the noise. The conservatives line up the biggest concern troll to hide behind the badge.
Milwaukee County sheriff David Clarke, Jr. is the racist right's go-to guy for all things anti-Black.
Clarke was on that network saying that police brutality doesn't exist. This clown adamantly said that President Barack Obama is solely responsible for the deaths of police officers.
So I am guessing that he's solely responsible for the deaths of citizens held in police custody too!
In Columbia, South Carolina, a lawman who operates for the school is in the freezer after a video surfaced of him slamming a disruptive student on the ground. A student filmed the encounter and posted it on YouTube. The young girl who is not identified as of yet, was seen being dragged on the ground and body slammed by the officer.
The school officer grabbed a high school student from her chair, knocked her to the floor and dragged her across the classroom on Monday, a video shows.
The brief, shaky video shows an officer grab the student by her arms while she's sitting at her desk and flip her over, toppling the desk. The officer then yanks the girl to the front of the classroom.
The officer has been identified as Deputy Ben Fields. He's in the freezer pending a decision on whether discipline or criminal charges are filed. Richland County Sheriff's Department spokesman Lt. Curtis Wilson said, according to the junk food media.
The lawman drags the young girl across the floor. A student records the encounter and posted it on social media.
The video becomes blurry after the officer and the student reach the front of the classroom, but the officer appears to restrain the student by putting her arms behind her back. In a longer version of the video, the officer looms over the student before grabbing her.
Libby Roof, a communications officer for Richland School District Two, told the junk food media that officials were "deeply concerned" about the incident.
"Student safety is and always will be the district’s top priority," Roof said in a statement. "The district will not tolerate any actions that jeopardize the safety of our students. Pending the outcome of the investigation, the district has directed that the school resource officer not return to any school in the district."
The student had refused to leave class before the school officer became involved, the sheriff's office told the local TV station.
Incidents of violence involving students and school or local law enforcement are not uncommon. Last November, a video emerged of a school resource officer punching a student in the face, supposedly to break up a fight. An incident earlier this month shows a cop grabbing a teen by the neck and slamming him to the ground. And another shows a man using what Fusion calls a "WWE wrestling move" on a 14-year-old student.
Spring Valley High School officials didn't immediately respond to inquiries. A spokesman for the Richland County sheriff's office was unavailable, according to someone who answered the department's phone, because the office had been "inundated" with calls.
A man from Columbus, Ohio was killed in front of his family. He went to a local restaurant and was mugged by the gunman. The gunman put slugs in him. The law and feds are seeking information.
Gun violence happens everyday. I don't have the opportunity to cover every tragedy in the world.
I admit that I am pretty selective in how I address these stories. I tend to a left-of-center opinion on most issues. I don't consider myself a liberal or progressive. I consider myself a rationalist.
I am a supporter of gun rights. But also I am a rationalist. I believe that we should have reasonable gun control. Too many people are dying in senseless tragedies and we've become numb to this.
We're seeing a rise in anti-Muslim violence. Thanks to that right wing network and the many agitators in the conservative media, Muslims are often harassed and killed because of their religion.
A man from Columbus, Ohio was gunned down in front of his six children and wife. He was on a dinner outing at a local Golden Corral restaurant.
The gunman ambushed them at the door and demanded money. The gunman didn't give a fuck and bucked him in the leg and then the chest.
The gunman would take his wallet and phone. The suspect got away and the Columbus Metro police and the feds are hoping the suspect makes a mistake.
Shueyb Abukar, 40 was the name of the victim.
Police Sgt. Christ Holzhauser said that Abukar was a Columbus resident. Voters’ registration and county auditor’s records show a man of that name and age owning a home on Minerva Avenue on the Northeast Side.
Columbus Police and the feds are looking to witnesses. A father of six was gunned down after a robbery.
The shooting occurred about 6:30 p.m. Friday. Holzhauser said that Abukar and his family were leaving the restaurant after eating there and hadn’t even gotten to their vehicle when the man came up to them.
It’s unclear exactly what happened next, but Abukar was shot in front of his family for what Holzhauser said “appears to be a random robbery.” He said police don’t believe the shooter knew the man. Holzhauser couldn’t say whether the shooter got away with any money.
All of the children, Holzhauser said, saw their father shot. The oldest child is around 9 or 10 years old.
Holzhauser, a supervisor of the second-shift homicide squad who deals with slayings all of the time, was visibly shaken as he talked about the shooting.
“For some measly mother f----- to shoot a man in front of his whole family, that’s f------ sick,” Holzhauser said.
The shooter, Holzhauser said, jumped into a tan car with a second person at the wheel and sped away. The car is described as possibly a Toyota Corolla or a Ford Taurus. It’s unclear whether the getaway driver was a man or a woman.
The shooter is described as a black man who is about 6 feet tall and 160 to 170 pounds. He was wearing a red Ohio State hoodie and pajama bottoms with OSU insignias on them.
Breanne George heard the shooting and saw people run from the Golden Corral parking lot as she and her mother walked into the Ruby Tuesday restaurant right next door.
“I’d never heard a noise like that,” George said. “It was so close and so loud. I thought it was a car backfiring.”
But George said she then saw people run from the Golden Corral parking lot and heard screaming and yelling.
She quickly guided her mother, who is blind, into the Ruby Tuesday. Her mother, she said, was certain it was gunfire because her father had been a police officer.
George, 32, said there were three or four gunshots total.
She said she didn’t know exactly what had happened until she later read media accounts. She finds it all “very unnerving” because she was here from Chicago to sign a lease on a new Dublin apartment — not far from where the shooting occurred. She’s taking a job here.
“It was all just unbelievable,” George said.
World News Today send our condolences to the family of Shueyb Abukar and every victim of gun violence.
The conservative Craiglist decides to go after the age of Clinton. The conservative agitator Matt Drudge thought wishing Hillary Clinton a 68th birthday was a goodwill gesture.
NOPE.
It's a part of the distractions that you see in politics. This agitator finds an issue that tarnishes the image of a candidate and runs with it. Repeat this narrative until a sponge soaks it up. The sponge will word vomit this in a comment section.
Concern trolls will say well you guys on the left were going after Ronald Reagan and John McCain for age. For one thing, I admit I did enjoy John McCain for his silliness. The unintended photo of McCain sticking his tongue out after he made a mistake exiting the debate stage was a goldmine.
That was comedy.... Many saw that as a sign of age and temperament.
When Clinton aced the Congressional select committee hearing on Benghazi, she made Republicans look foolish. Now Republicans and their conservative allies are trying to save grace. The junk food media and the public wants to move past Benghazi. Republicans aren't done with it.
Like with Obamacare and Planned Parenthood, the insurgent Republicans are still stuck on stupid.
They get their "facts" from a website that looks like an advertising website. It's pathetic that people would believe things off the internet.
Drudging the stories again.
I seriously believe that once again, the old fart Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity (aka that annoying conservative agitator), Alex Jones and Matt Drudge will once again hand the election to the Democrats.
This is the type of stuff isn't productive to the country.
I seriously believe that they profit off President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Without someone to attack, these agitators would be considered irrelevant. No one should believe the stuff that comes out of their mouths. They were the ones who delivered two successful elections to Obama.
When has the conservative Craigslist ever had any "bombshell" stories?
Indiana University student got busted for attacking a Muslim woman. He also is facing federal charges.
Because of the junk food media's obsession with the Islamic State, some Americans actually believe that radial Islam is bigger threat than gun violence. The conservative agitators have promoted these theories that Muslims are terrorists.
Some lawmakers have called for legislation to selectively target Muslims and ban the non-existent "Shir'a Law".
They want Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims watched under a microscope. They don't want these groups to own guns. They don't want these groups to have the safety net entitlements.
They will line up "___________" agitators to say that these groups should "stop complaining and fall in line". Conservatives will automatically blame President Barack Obama for not expressing a pro-nationalist agenda. In turn it leads to hate crimes committed by individuals brainwashed by this notion that they can't get ahead because of these groups.
The Associated Press reports that an Indiana University has expelled a 19-year-old sophomore accused of attacking Muslim woman over the weekend, trying to remove her headscarf and shouting racial slurs, a school official said Tuesday.
School spokesman Mark Land said IU's dean of students "dismissed" Triceten D. Bickford on Monday night as a "direct result of what happened over the weekend" when the woman was attacked Saturday evening outside of a Bloomington cafe.
"He didn't withdraw, let's put it that way," Land said, adding that he couldn't go into further detail due to privacy concerns.
He said the university, which had already called the attack a "horrifying incident," won't have anything more to say about Bickford and will "let the legal process run its course."
Bickford, who is from Fort Wayne, Indiana, has been charged with multiple felony charges, including intimidation, strangulation and battery, in the attack at a Turkish cafe in Bloomington, about 50 miles southwest of Indianapolis.
According to a probable cause affidavit, the Muslim woman was sitting at a table with her 9-year-old daughter when a man later identified as Bickford emerged from a nearby alley shouting "white power," anti-black racial slurs and "kill the police." Bickford grabbed the woman by the neck and forced her head forward, restricting her breathing as he tried to remove her headscarf, police allege.
The woman said that this suspect screamed "WHITE POWER" before he tried to rip off her hijab.
The woman's husband and a passer-by dragged Bickford off and restrained him until police arrived. Bickford spit in the men's faces, threatened to kill them and arriving officers, tried to kick out the windows of a patrol car and bit an officer on the calf at the Monroe County Jail, the affidavit states.
Bickford was released Sunday from Monroe County's jail on $705 bond and other fees. He returned to class Monday but was expelled later that day.
The Associated Press sent emails to Bickford and left cell phones messages for him seeking comment Tuesday. Both the Monroe County prosecutor's office and Land said it's unclear if Bickford has an attorney who could speak on his behalf.
Bickford told WTHR-TV in Indianapolis that he has no memory of the incident and that a combination of drinking alcohol and not taking his anti-anxiety medication caused him to snap. He said he is not a hateful person.
"I'm so sorry to that woman. I have no idea who she is ... I've never hurt someone like that before," Bickford told the TV station.
The woman's 48-year-old husband, who asked that their names not be used, said Tuesday that the family had moved from Turkey to Bloomington nearly two decades ago but had never experienced anything like the attack.
He said his 47-year-old wife was sitting outside the restaurant when she noticed a drunk man approaching "mumbling some drunk stuff" and then heard him repeating "white power" shortly before he attacked her.
He said Bickford's bond was set "too low" and that he and his wife would have preferred for Bickford to remain in jail until his initial hearing on the charges, which is scheduled for Friday. He expects prosecutors to request a restraining order at that hearing to keep Bickford away from the family.
"But right now we have no restraining order against him, and that makes us kind of feel uncomfortable," he said. "It affected all of us, but especially our 9-year-old daughter," whom he said was so upset she stayed home from school Monday.
Ibrahim Hooper, a spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said the attack fits a nationwide pattern.
"We've seen a tremendous spike in the level of anti-Muslim sentiment in our society and increasingly violent hate rhetoric," in recent years, he said Tuesday.
Wendy Osborne, a spokeswoman for the FBI in Indianapolis, said the agency is reviewing Saturday's incident and could open up a hate crimes investigation if it "determines that a federal law has been violated."
