Shake Pt. 2!


Embattled senate candidate Todd Akin is defiant. The Republican House and Senate Leaders are now calling for him to resign from Congress, entirely.

This controversy is ongoing. We here at Journal de la Reyna will cover this.

Washed up celebrity and televangelist Kirk Cameron is coming to the defense of the controversial Republican Congressman Todd Akin of Missouri.

Known as Mike Seaver from the 1980s sitcom Growing Pains, the conservative activist is demanding the Republicans to back off of the congressman. He joins the choir of anti-abortion activists throwing their support for the embattled senate candidate.

Washed up celebrity turned televangelist Kirk Cameron comes in support of Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) amid a brewing controversy of women's reproductive rights!
Akin won the Missouri U.S. Senate primary after a bitter fight against two primary opponents.

Now as the pressure mounts, the congressman's gains are going up in smoke.

Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas, U.S. Senate campaign organizer) and Senator Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky, Minority Leader) have called for Akin to get out. The biggest call to get out comes from the Romney campaign. Those request were ignored.

Akin is turning to the anti-abortion activists and fellow Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa) for moral support and fundraising.

Not backing down. Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri).
In what is considered cracks in the once stable Republican Party. The movement is showing signs of division.

Those who support pro-life positions are still shaky with Romney. They believe that Romney is going to continue to endorse abortion laws. Romney was once a pro-choice governor. Mitt Romney denies he was a pro-choice governor. The conservative base were hoping for Rick Santorum to continue his failed presidential bid to unseat the potential nomination of Mitt Romney. They were rushing to the internet and television saying that the media was in love with not only President Barack Obama, but the perennial presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

Some in the conservative media are upset with Akin and they're calling for him to get out!

Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter, the three most controversial voices in the conservative media are claiming that the "liberal media" lets politicians like Vice President Joe Biden get away with comments but they're so focused on Akin because he's a conservative. Although these three would love to see Akin get out the race, they're going to blame the media for the controversy.

Former governor and Tea Party queen, Sarah Palin has demanded that Republicans choice another candidate that appeals to the conservative causes. Palin blames Akin if the race tips in favor of Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri).

McCaskill is hoping that division among the party establishment and the Tea Party, will help her win her race and carry the state for President Obama.

Mitt Romney has no backbone. He can't even keep his party in line. Every freaking time he tries to make the case for party unity, Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin), Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and now Congressman Todd Akin are upstaging him at every whim.

__________________

Romney upset over Akin's refusal to concede.
The Romney Campaign complains about the president having no leadership and yet here we are! The Republican ticket can't even get a member of their party to resign. They made the controversy worse by calling for him to get out! The Republicans care only about winning! This is why the Tea Party is not relevant.

President Barack Obama does carry a share of trouble with his conservative Democrats. Some come from states that care about issues like firearms, abortion and regulations. Take West Virginia, for example. Two Democratic senators and the coal mining industry. The industry disapproves of President Obama.

The state of Arkansas. Known for the world's largest retailer Walmart, many in the state support non-union work and forestry. One Democrat and one Republican. One longtime Democrat was beat in the 2010 U.S. Midterm Election. Another one may retire and put the seat in Republican hands. The state highly disapproves of President Obama.

Republicans are purging their moderates. Over 50 members of Congress are getting out.

Republican and Democratic Senators and Representatives are getting fed up with the partisanship (rush to the cameras) members.

A list of those mention have been on television more:

Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Florida, Democratic Party National Chair), Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa), Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-Illinois), Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas), Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota), Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-California, Minority Leader), Congressman Charlie Rangel (D-New York), Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky (D-Illinois),  Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin, current vice presidential nominee), Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), Congressman John Boehner (R-Ohio, Speaker of The House), Congressman Eric Cantor (R-Virginia, House Majority Leader), Senator Marco Rubio (R-Florida), Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Connecticut), Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina), Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Senator Harry Reid (D-Nevada, Majority Leader), Senator Rob Portman (R-Ohio), Senator Dick Durbin (D-Illinois), and Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah).

These are the most well known members of Congress. Known for controversial statements.

Congressman Todd Akin: Mitt Romney, You Can Shove It!

Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) is not bowing down to Mitt Romney and Congressman Paul Ryan's (R-Wisconsin) pleas to get out the race!
On The Sean Hannity Radio Program, once again the conservative agitator is practically pleading to Congressman Todd Akin to drop his U.S. Senate bid. The eight term U.S. Congressman from Missouri is not folding nor quitting this race. This will put the U.S. Senate race for Missouri as a "TOSSUP" leans Republican.

Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) can breathe easy for now. The focus is back to "The War on Women".

Sean Hannity is the go to guy for Republicans. If a conservative is under fire or a Republican needs a moment to shine, look for the 50 year old conservative agitator.

This controversy is on going and believe me the Republicans don't need any more bad news.

The go to guy for a Republican scandal. The serial agitator plead to Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) to get out the race. The congressman refused to concede.

The deadline to have a replacement was 5PM (CST). This has passed and the Republican will be on the ballot. Despite the pleas of Republican candidate Mitt Romney, the congressman is not interested in being lectured by the likes of him.

Missouri Republican Senate candidate Todd Akin attacked the GOP’s presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, for joining a chorus of Republicans asking him to withdraw from the race. Akin said that Romney had blown the controversy out of proportion and implied that he had done so for his own political gain.

Mother Nature Hates Republicans Too!

Tropical Storm Issac could ruin the Republican National Convention.
Hurricane Issac is coming for the panhandle of Florida. Where it lands, could have festivities and revenue ruined for the city of Tampa, Florida. The Tampa Bay area is going to host the 2012 Republican National Convention.

Former Massachusetts governor and perennial candidate for president Mitt Romney has overcame the odds of the bitter Tea Party movement to become their nominee. He and his running mate Congressman Paul Ryan  (R-Wisconsin) will take helm as the Republican nominees.

What could ruin such a great occasion? The Republican Party's sworn enemy Mother Nature!

Hurricane spotters fear that Issac could become a Category 3 hurricane during the week of the Republican Convention. The notion is thought among some of the party faithful.

The pimps, the prostitutes, pizza joints, bars, restaurants, rental cars, strip clubs and law enforcement are looking forward to the Republican Party arrival.

Republicans are the adult industry's best customers. If a Republican is looking for a good time with a prostitute or male escort, they can find it in the Tampa area.

I'm not dissing Tampa, Florida,. But I'll bet ya, the professionals in the adult industry and your average street hooker are willing to do anything to make a Republican happy.

To be strictly honest, any political event will attract this. Just wait til the Democratic National Convention when President Barack Obama comes to town. Charlotte, North Carolina will host the event. I'll bet you that the Interstate 77/85 corridor is going to be congested with U.S. Secret Service and state law enforcement.

It's party convention time, hopefully for the Republican Party.

A rumor going around. Vice President Joe Biden may show up in Tampa to disrupt the convention. I bet you that the areas around Interstate 4 and 275 will be congested and the arrival of Vice President Biden will bring forth numerous delays.

The Obama Campaign despises Mitt Romney and his campaign. They believe that he'll pander to the extremist elements of the Republican Party to win this election. So far, Mitt Romney hasn't disappointed.

Barack Obama would win if one thing didn't hold him back. The economy and the fact that he's a Black man.

I'm Staying On The Ballot (For Now)!


Pressuring Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) to drop his bid for U.S. Senate.
Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) is under fire. With good reason. He just opened up a huge distraction. Over the past weekend, the congressman went on a local television program and stated that women can deny legitimate rape.

“It seems to me, from what I understand from doctors, that’s really rare. If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down. But let’s assume that maybe that didn’t work or something: I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be of the rapist, and not attacking the child.

Those comments let up a firestorm. Akin went on the serial conservative agitator Sean Hannity radio program to apologize. He bailed out on Piers Morgan and got a huge tongue lashing from the host. And even went forth to put a web video telling the public that he's sorry for what he's said.



The Missouri Republicans are not buying it. The Republicans want his sorry ass out of the race!

In a mere two weeks you see the implosion of a U.S. Senate candidate. Congressman Akin's bid for the U.S. Senate go up in flames. It's so bad, the Republican Senatorial Committee and state leaders are demanding that Akin step aside. They ceased fundraising. CBS anchor Norah O'Donnell stated that $10 million dollars was stopped after this controversy.

Again, they want him to get out the race! Akin so far is defiant.

According to the Associated Press, if the congressman doesn't concede his nomination by the end of the day, he'll be on the ballot and it's going to be a likely federal court dispute.

While it's likely he'll resign either from Congress or give up his nomination bid, the damage is done.

The Republicans let the grips of victory slip from their grasp. They launched the culture war and this has finally taken a toll.

Breathe easy! Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) is now the frontrunner.  Embattled senator could win reelection.
Another native Missourian had let his loose lips sink his radio endorsements and ratings. Yet, he's managed to strive in this controversy and managed to pull in a few new listeners. That commentator went off on a Georgetown law student and called her a "slut" and wanted to see "her make a sex tape". He caught the attention of President Barack Obama who offered comfortable words to this private citizen. This private citizen became the public voice of women's rights. That Missourian is Rush Limbaugh and the woman is Sandra Fluke. This controversy was this year.

Congressman Todd Akin really effed up! He made it easier for his opponent Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri). President Barack Obama and Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) will rile up women votes by tying Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and running mate Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) to the extreme views of Akin and likely Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa).

This is an ongoing issue. This controversy was discussed by me and LeReyna. I believe this will be the turning point for the Democratic Party. This controversy will eventually die off! But as of right now, if the Democrats and President Barack Obama outline the gridlock in Congress and issues such as this controversy, they'll have a better chance at winning.

We here at Journal de la Reyna will cover this controversy.

Soledad O'Brien Smacks Down Romney Supporter!



CNN is trailing behind in the ratings due to the hyperpartisan rabble rousers of Fox News and MSNBC.

CNN has been in the game since the 1980s. But competition is rising. And CNN tried to fend it off!

CNN is considered the most fairest network in political coverage. It's hated by both the left and the right.

Soledad O'Brien is one of the toughest in the news.

A few days ago, former New Hampshire governor, Republican John Sununu gets into it with the host of Early Start. Sununu is one of those pain inducing conservative agitators who doesn't care about facts.

All he wants to do is get his own television show on these freaking cable news channels.

Soledad O'Brien goes at it with John Sununu.

Sununu made the news recently by claiming the president was smoking something while attending Columbia University. Sununu is a birther and borderline racist.

ESPN Anchor: White Fans Will Not Support Black Players!

Skip Bayless insert his foot in his mouth.
If you're a White conservative male, even in sports, you're likely to have this opinion of major athletes.

Skip Bayless is another example of the brainless idiots in the media saying things that are so inappropriate, they'll either be forced to apologize or be sent their walking papers.

Congressman Todd Akin, a Republican running as the Missouri U.S. Senate Candidate knows how to insert his foot in his mouth or head right up his ass.

Bayless is no exception.

The Huffington Post presents another controversy from the ESPN sports deck.


Perhaps best known for lauding Tim Tebow and tearing down LeBron James, Bayless contended that it is human nature for white fans to support a white athlete over a black athlete if given a choice.

"I'm going to throw it out there. You also have the black-white dynamic and the majority of Redskins fans are white. And it’s just human nature, if you’re white to root for the white guy," Bayless contended. "It just happens in sports. Just like the black community will root for the black quarterback. I'm for the black guy. I'm just saying, I don't like the dynamic for RG3. It could stunt his growth in the NFL."

Bayless made this claim about human nature to bolster his argument that Robert Griffin III, the reigning Heisman Trophy winner and the No. 2 overall selection in the 2012 NFL Draft, is in a precarious position in Washington due to the presence of fellow rookie QB Kirk Cousins, a fourth-round pick out of Michigan State. While attempting to make the case (which he has been doing for months) that the Redskins erred in drafting Cousins, who is white, because it puts unnecessary pressure on Griffin III, who is black, to flourish quickly, Bayless cited race as factor in determining fan opinion. This discussion came two days after Griffin delivered a lackluster effort in a preseason game against the Chicago Bears.

Since Bayless does proclaim his support for Griffin by saying "I'm for the black guy," he does allow for the possibility that not all people make rooting decisions based on the race of a player. Does he only think that Redskins fans let their allegiances be swayed this way? Does he really think that Cousins is better, even if only right now, and that Redskins fans will be swayed by the preseason productivity of each player? Or did Bayless only "throw it out there" in order to generate controversy?

At the Bar: The Heterosexist Narrative

Thank you Ankensen Mie.  I was thinking the same thing.  Hollyweird have a fantasy about Hetereosexual Upper Middle Class Whiteness at the expense of POCs, GLBTs, working/lower middle class/poor people.  I, a woman of Color, am so sick of it!  La Reyna says I'm sick and tired of it.  That's why I don't watch TV and movies often.

Did GOP Congressman Sink His Senate Bid?

Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) is under fire for comments about rape victims. The comments gave Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) an opening.  
Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) is the most vulnerable member of the U.S. Senate. Her state highly disapproves of her and President Barack Obama. A major swing state, it's trending more redder. Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) carried the state by just a point. The Republican candidates who are running for the U.S. Senate are hoping the bad economy and President Barack Obama's job approval could be the ticket to reclaiming the Senate.

Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) won the Missouri GOP primary and will be the one running against McCaskill.

Akin is a Republican member of Congress since 2001. His district covers the suburban St. Louis County.

Akin won a bitterly fought primary against two other candidates, one rival being endorsed by Tea Party maven former governor Sarah Palin. Akin wasn't endorsed by Palin, but managed to win over Missouri Republicans.

Akin who is a pro-lifer said something over the weekend that may have gave a struggling McCaskill the break she needed.

Republicans emboldened by the culture wars have finally taken its toll. Akin being a representative of the culture war, said something inappropriate about rape victims and the media has zeroed in on it!



According to Talking Points Memo, a progressive blog, his opposition to abortion rights even in case of rape with a claim that victims of “legitimate rape” have unnamed biological defenses that prevent pregnancy.
Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) has distanced herself from President Barack Obama. She is facing a tougher reelection this year.
“First of all, from what I understand from doctors [pregnancy from rape] is really rare,” Akin told KTVI-TV in an interview posted Sunday. “If it’s a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.”

Akin said that even in the worst-case scenario — when the supposed natural protections against unwanted pregnancy fail — abortion should still not be a legal option for the rape victim.

“Let’s assume that maybe that didn’t work, or something,” Akin said. “I think there should be some punishment, but the punishment ought to be on the rapist and not attacking the child.”


A 1996 study by the American Journal of Obstetricians and Gynecologists found “rape-related pregnancy occurs with significant frequency” and is “a cause of many unwanted pregnancies” — an estimated “32,101 pregnancies result from rape each year.”

In a tweet, McCaskill said she was “stunned” by Akin’s comments.

After the interview caused a firestorm, Akin said in a statement that he “misspoke.”

Akin is perhaps the boldest among a crop of conservative 2012 nominees who could hamper GOP efforts to take back the Senate in the fall. Akin has called for an end to the school-lunch program and a total ban on the morning-after pill.

His claim about “legitimate” types of rape is not completely foreign to the current Republican Congress, however. In 2011, the House GOP was forced to drop language from a bill that would have limited federal help to pay for an abortion to only victims of “forcible rape.” Akin was a co-sponsor on the bill.

Nor is this Akin’s first time suggesting some types of rape are more worthy of protections than others. As a state legislator, Akin voted in 1991 for an anti-marital-rape law, but only after questioning whether it might be misused “in a real messy divorce as a tool and a legal weapon to beat up on the husband,” according to a May 1 article that year in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

GOP Congressmen Skinny Dip Overseas Causing A Sex Scandal!

Speaker John Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor are walking from the White House. The Republican leaders are angry at members of the Republican caucus for a sex scandal overseas. They fear the media will cover this instead of the message of bringing stability to the economy.
This is going to be the buzz of the week. Just like the U.S. Secret Service, our members of the U.S. Congress are to handle themselves accordingly when overseas. The Republican Party once again has to defend its actions by its freshmen members of Congress.

The Politico released a bombshell. And this bombshell will have more ammunition for President Barack Obama to go after Congress for ineptness. The Republican controlled House of Representatives has passed legislation that could roll back the progress that the president sought. With a slim majority in the U.S. Senate, the Democrats can't achieve the 60 votes needed to block filibusters. The Republicans are hoping the mood of the economy will be their winning strategy.

The FBI probed a late-night swim in the Sea of Galilee that involved drinking, numerous GOP freshmen lawmakers, top leadership staff – and one nude member of Congress, according to more than a dozen sources, including eyewitnesses.

During a fact-finding congressional trip to the Holy Land last summer, Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-Kansas) took off his clothes and jumped into the sea, joining a number of members, their families and GOP staff during a night out in Israel, the sources told POLITICO. Other participants, including the daughter of another congressman, swam fully clothed while some lawmakers partially disrobed. More than 20 people took part in the late-night dip in the sea, according to sources who took part in the trip.

The FBI looked into whether any inappropriate behavior occurred, but the interviews do not appear to have resulted in any formal allegations of wrongdoing.

But Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.), who was the senior most GOP lawmaker in Israel on the trip, was so upset about the antics that he rebuked the 30 lawmakers the morning after the Aug. 18. 2011, incident, saying they were distracting from the mission of the trip.

Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was also on the privately funded excursion, which means two of the three top Republicans were a part of this trip. Neither Cantor nor McCarthy went swimming that night, the sources said. Some of their staff did.

The account of that Aug. 2011 night in Israel was pieced together for the first time by POLITICO based on interviews with more than a dozen sources, including eyewitnesses, as well as public records of the trip.

A Cantor spokesman confirmed that the majority leader dressed down his Republican colleagues and that a staffer was later interviewed by FBI agents.

“Twelve months ago, [Cantor] dealt with this immediately and effectively to ensure such activities would not take place in the future,” said Doug Heye, Cantor’s deputy chief of staff.

Heye added: “Last year, a staffer was contacted by the Bureau [FBI], which had several questions, the staffer answered those questions and that appears to have been the end of it.”

The FBI’s questions focused on who went into the water that night, and whether there was any impropriety, according to multiple sources.

The American Israel Educational Foundation, a group related to AIPAC, the prominent pro-Israel advocacy group, sponsored the trip, which ran from Aug. 13 to Aug. 21, 2011. The trip cost AIEF upwards of $10,000 per person, according to records filed with the House Ethics Committee. More than 60 people took part in this AIEF trip.

These trips to the Holy Land are a rite of passage for members of Congress, as they visit the most sacred sites in the Jewish and Christian faiths – while their Israeli government hosts drive home the huge importance of U.S. support of Israel. That’s partially why, when the trip devolved into drinking and merrymaking, Cantor was livid.

In a Congress that has already sunk to new lows in public-opinion polls, and seen a bipartisan wave of scandals, this latest controversy could only further damage that image. Since the start of the 112th Congress, former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.) resigned following the revelation that he was sending naked pictures of himself to women he met on the Internet. Former Rep. Christopher Lee (R-N.Y.) quickly left office after he was caught sending a topless photo of himself to an online acquaintance. Former Rep. Christopher Wu (D-Ore.) stepped down after an “unwanted” sexual encounter with the daughter of a long-time friend. 

Former Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) resigned after having an extramarital affair with the wife of an aide and then trying to cover it up.

On the Israel trip that included the late night swim, the group of lawmakers on Aug. 18 departed the posh David Citadel Hotel in Jerusalem for Tiberias, a historic seaside town located on the banks of the Sea of Galilee. On the night in question, the GOP group checked into Scots Hotel, where rooms could run up to $1,000 each night. At 8:45 p.m., they headed to Decks, a popular restaurant located on the sea, according to an itinerary filed with the House Ethics Committee.

As dinner was winding down, Cantor and McCarthy left the restaurant, but the most of the other lawmakers and staff stayed behind, and the drinking continued, according to several sources who attended the dinner.

After what they describe as a “long, hot day,” more than 20 lawmakers and senior aides decided to jump into the sea, sources said. Some went in wearing all their clothes, although others partially undressed.
Yoder removed all his clothes, the only person to do so, according to multiple sources.

Senior aides also jumped into the Sea of Galilee. They include: Steve Stombres, Cantor’s chief of staff; Tim Berry, McCarthy’s chief of staff; Laena Fallon, Cantor’s former communications director and Emily Murray, McCarthy’s top health care aide. Kristi Way, a top Cantor staffer, was also on the trip.

Few offices responded to requests for on-the-record comment about the incident. However, numerous Republicans discussed what occurred on the condition of anonymity.

Some of those present took photographs of the group right after the late-night swim, sources said.

After the lawmakers and staff returned to the United States, FBI agents questioned congressional staff about the trip, specifically about what happened in Tiberias.

The FBI declined to comment on its probe, saying its standard policy was not to comment on such matters.

Hank Williams, Jr. Proves To The World He's A Dumbass!


Dumbass singer once again drags his ass into controversy again!
I am getting really annoyed with this beer guzzling buffoon. Once again, this jackass opens his mouth!

Besides the tobacco and Jack Daniels breath, you'll find the son of famed country singer Hank Williams acting like a complete asshole on television or radio. I'll bet you that Sean Hannity will get the first interview when he's pulled off another endorsement.

In 2011 on an appearance of Fox & Friends, Gretchen Carlson asked the singer how he feels about the political climate and then candidate Mitt Romney.

The redneck asshole didn't support him, then. He was upset over the fact that Mitt Romney's campaign was laying waste to former rivals Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum. But he saved the worst for President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, and Ohio Republican governor John Kasich. He made the reference to Adolf Hitler when describing the president and called Biden and Kasich, two of The Three Stooges.

That comment got him banned from ESPN as their opening act. A thing he's done for the past 20 years.

Now that's he's back on tour with his rebel rousing and the like, his big mouth is in trouble again.

Yes, friends, this jackass once again calls President Obama a "traitorous Muslim." The Iowa State Fair is the place where politicians reign in their support for the festivities and try to woo the swing voters in their direction. Barack Obama won the Democratic primary and carried the state in the 2008 U.S. Elections.

The president and vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan were at the Iowa State Fair earlier. Now that they've gone, here comes this jackass and his beer guzzling audience of right wing bigots.

The show was relatively free of politics until the end, when Hank Williams Jr. made the following claims:

"We've got a Muslim president who hates farming, hates the military, hates the U.S. and we hate him!"

The comments were apparently met with applause and loud cheers.

Now that he's warming up to the Romney/Ryan Presidential ticket, The Rolling Stone interviewed the asshole and yet he turned up the heat on the Obama administration.

"We've got a President that does a call to the Koran or Mecca or whatever," he told the magazine. When asked if he believed Obama hated America, Hank Williams, Jr. responded, "I don't know about that but it's kind of obvious. I guess when you take a tour, a world tour, to apologize for America."

A number of entertainers have come out in support of Obama and/or against the Romney-Ryan ticket. The Silversun Pickups issued a strongly worded cease-and-desist letter to Romney when it was revealed that the campaign had played one of their songs. The campaign responded by saying it was within its legal rights in playing "Panic Switch" and added that the song was not among those usually played and would not be used again.

The Motor City Madman and Bo Cepheus together with a fan. Ted Nugent (right) had the U.S. Secret Service visit him this year for his comments about President Obama. Last year, Hank Williams, Jr. (left) was fired as spokesperson for ESPN's Monday Night Football after comparing the president to Hitler. These notorious singers support fans who have ties to right wing extremism.
Ted Nugent, Jon Voight, Victoria Jackson, Mary Tyler Moore, Jenna Jameson and Jon Lovitz have an opinion about the president. Fine. They support Mitt Romney for president. Cool. But there's a line that's been crossed when they say these things.

How could conservatives stand there and allow these entertainers attack the president?

I mean conservatives get so frustrated with Touré, Jay-Z, Bill Maher, Chris Rock, Anna Wintour, Sarah Jessica Parker because they've come out in favor of President Barack Obama. They've gotten mad at Kanye West, Eminem, Ludacris, Jay-Z, The Dixie Chicks, and Lil' Wayne for criticizing George W. Bush.

People like Brent Bozell were pleading to radio and television stations to have them pulled off the air.

Now should Media Matters for America, or activists like Van Jones demand some retribution for such disgusting anti-American things being spoken about President Barack Obama?

Here's the video of the asshole explained by me!

I Seriously Think Sean Hannity Will Help President Obama Win!

If President Barack Obama wins reelection, I can tell you who's responsible for his victory!
After five years of listening to the second most listened and watched conservative talker in the nation, I come to grips with the notion that he's secretly rooting for President Barack Obama to win reelection. Seriously!

If you watch or listen to a full episode of Hannity, you'll hear the conservative agitator name drop Barack Obama's name faster than the president dropping his pants and taking a dump.

Of course, the president is aware of his chief foe. President Barack Obama has mentioned Sean Hannity by name. To Sean Hannity, it's a badge of honor! Sean Hannity loves it when he gets under the president's skin.

I really think that all this anti-Obama nonsense has helped Sean Hannity really well. I mean look at his ratings of his show on Fox News. His average age 18-45 demographics are high according to TV by The Numbers from Zap2It.

The Hannity Show is a carnival of right wing agitation. You already know that Sean Hannity will say something totally negative about President Barack Obama. On his show, you'll have either Dick Morris, Sarah Palin, Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter, Brent Bozell, Jesse Lee Peterson, and Pat Buchanan saying even more outrageous things about the president and Hannity sits there agreeing with it.

When Hannity puts on one liberal, especially one that shouts over him, it's another combative interview. The commentator goes totally ballistic and starts complaining about how the "Obama-loving mainstream media" corrupts the minds of those who disagrees with him.

Like a dog with a bone in his mouth, Sean Hannity can't let go of these ridiculous issues. After listening to conservative Black commentator David Webb say the lie about President Barack Obama spending $5 trillion in government spending, Hannity rehashed an old Ronald Reagan line.
An "average" guy who makes over $150 million. Sean Hannity signed a ten year $100 million contract for Premiere Radio Networks and a $10 million contract for four years on Fox News.  
Whenever he confronts a liberal guest, he'll always say: "Are you better off now, then you were four years ago (and five trillion dollars now)?"

Sean Hannity's insults President Barack Obama by calling him: The whiner-in-chief, President Crybaby, President Civility, the Anointed One, and comparing him to one-term president Jimmy Carter.

He constantly attacks First Lady Michelle Obama for her healthy eating initiatives that could end obesity in children. He labeled her a hypocrite. He mocks the First Lady constantly. When she was on the campaign trail in 2008 campaign for then senator Barack Obama, she was saying "For the first time in my adult life, I am truly proud of my country! Because hope is coming back!"

He constantly whines about Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers. He urged Republican candidate Mitt Romney to  question the president's "associations" with these two individuals. The Romney campaign has abandoned that plan.

President Barack Obama has mentioned Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck by name. Conservatives treat this as a badge of honor for them to be mentioned by the president. They know that they're getting under his skin. 
Sean Hannity is the go-to-guy for Republicans and conservative activists. He's always there trying to help these extremists get air time.

The conservative agitator supports controversial figures such as the shooter of Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman, convicted war criminal Oliver North, and homophobic preacher Jerry Falwell. One he refuses to acknowledge is Hal Turner, a White Supremacist who turned into a federal informant. When Hannity got into it with New Black Panthers leader, Malik Zulu Shabazz, the Black separatist mentioned Hannity's long standing with the White supremacist.

Sean Hannity is a rich man. He signed a contract to stay on Fox News for four more years, a 10 year contract for Clear Channel's Premiere Radio Networks, and wrote his bestseller Conservative Victory. He claims he's an average guy, but yet makes ridiculous requests to fly private planes and takes $100,000 speaking fees. His Freedom Concerts are a fraud as well. The earnings for scholarships fail to match the cost of having washed up musicians like Charlie Daniels, Ted Nugent, Meatloaf and John Rich's performance fees.

So I come to grips with this guy! He needs Barack Obama to keep his ratings up. He needs the president to stay relevant. Because I bet you, if we elect a boring guy like Mitt Romney, I'll bet you that Fox News will lose 12% of its ratings.

Sean Hannity is completely unhinged with Obama Derangement Syndrome!

He can't help himself! He believes anyone who supports President Barack Obama is worshiping an alter of him. On radio, if a caller corrects Hannity on issues that favor the president, he'll cut off the phone call. He'll disrespect the caller for taking "Obama talking points (aka facts that dispute his argument)!"

I bet you that Mr. Hannity's has an alter of Ronald Reagan. Since he's obsessed with name dropping "The Gipper".

Touré: Mitt Romney Working A "Niggerization" Of President Obama!

Touré angered the Romney Campaign.

Touré, a pop culture analysis from MSNBC and Vibe Magazine made it clear that former Massachusetts governor and perennial candidate for president Mitt Romney really swallowed the dog whistle. That has the Romney campaign fuming! The campaign wants to kick the host off the air after this!

Touré made the news after it was reported by Mediaite and buzzed by conservative agitator Matt Drudge.

The commentator is one of the main host of The Cycle with conservative commentator S.E. Cupp, Steve Kornack, and Krystal Ball. 

Touré believes Mitt Romney is really pandering to the extremist wing of the Republican Party. After making a fiery speech in Chillicothe, Ohio, Mitt Romney demanded “[President Barack Obama] take his campaign of division and anger and hate back to Chicago.”

Touré who is African American and slightly conservative stated this issue really bothered him. 
"You notice he said anger twice. He’s really trying to use racial coding and access some really deep stereotypes about the angry black man. This is part of the playbook against Obama, the ''otherization,'' he’s not like us."
“I know it’s a heavy thing, I don’t say it lightly, but this is ''niggerization''! You are not one of us, you are like the scary black man who we’ve been trained to fear."
That's riled up the conservatives. Mediaite has the clip of the exchange between the commentator and S.E. Cupp. But the most disturbing is the comments. Since this was a link from The Drudge Report, his readers are lockstep in their word salad of hate. The conservative word salad will include either an insult on Touré, President Barack Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, First Lady Michelle Obama, Vice President Joe Biden or the Black community in general.



The Republicans are having trouble trying to win over Hispanics, Blacks and non-White voters. The president carries a 3:1 ratio when it comes to this block. Mitt Romney carries the White male vote overwhelmingly. President Barack Obama can achieve mainly 40% of the White vote.

Older White people are more likely to harbor bigoted views towards race, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, political and economic standings. White conservative males are by far the most pessimistic voting block this year.

They're usually the ones who are angry about the struggling economy, illegal immigration, Black crime, and the president's race and his policies.

The exchange obtained by Mediaite has gone viral. Portion include, Touré denied calling [Romney and the Republicans] racist. This comment angered S.E. Cupp.

She stated to Touré: “Certainly you were implying that Mitt Romney and the base will respond to this dog-whistle, racially-charged coding, and hate Obama, the angry black man?”

“Absolutely,” he replied.
Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have dog whistled to the angry White conservative voter. They deny they've done it but a recent ad released by the Romney Campaign saying the president is a "sugar daddy" to welfare recipients.
“That’s so irresponsible,” Cupp answered back.

“This is not a revolutionary comment,” Touré later said. “This is a constituency all-white party that rejects the black vote.”

“You have two white guys in Joe Biden and Mitt Romney,” Cupp clarified. “Joe Biden made the overtly racial comment and has a history of making bigoted remarks. Mitt Romney was responding to the comment. Yet he is the one responsible for the whole Republican history of racism in politics?”

“That’s not what Touré is saying,” co-host Krystal Ball interjected. “You’re twisting his words.”

“No, he can speak for himself,” Cupp shot back.

“He’s using the playbook Republicans have been using for decades now,” Touré concluded.

Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity will cover this controversy. I will assure you! But the point of this matter is how much Mitt Romney despises the media, in particular MSNBC.

Romney can't take criticism. He can't handle the pressure. He attacks President Barack Obama for being hateful and divisive. Yet, he's allowing Sean Hannity, John Sununu, Rush Limbaugh, Ted Nugent, and Jon Voight say nasty things about the president. He allows a woman to call the president a "monster" in front of a crowd.

President Barack Obama is feuding with Fox News, but yet he manages to go on The O'Reilly Factor or Special Report with Brett Beier. He knows the network supports Mitt Romney and the Republican Party.

They were attacking him for shutting out Fox News. During the 2009 debacle with Fox News, then White House communications adviser Anita Dunn famously declared that the network operates as a research arm of the Republican Party.

Fox News continues to agitate stories that paint President Barack Obama, Muslims, Hispanics, and the Black community in a negative light.

Before I go, I want to share with you the comments section of a linked story. Mediaite has closed off comments after finding racial slurs in the comment section. Most supporters of Barack Obama said that Romney should get over it. Most supporters of Mitt Romney have stated that the president and his progressive allies are the real "racists".

Thom Hartmann, the host of The Big Picture (simulcast radio show) on the Russia Today Network talks about how Mitt Romney panders to the extremist wing of the Republican Party.
