ZERO! ROMNEY: NO BLACK SUPPORT!


Herman Cain, the former chief executive of Godfather's Pizza, and Mitt Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, were the targets of much attention at the Republican presidential debate in Hanover, N.H.
No kidding. Black voters aren't supporting Mitt Romney.
According to the NBC/Wall Street Journal Poll, the Romney/Ryan ticket has finally cracked a milestone. They have managed to keep less than 2% of African American vote. To make this clear, Mitt Romney has zero support from the Black community.

That's not good. President Barack Obama has 94% of the support with 6% undecided.

So I am guessing that Jesse Lee Peterson, Angela McGlowan, Congressman Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Congressman Allen West (R-Florida), and many Black Republicans cover only .0001% of the Black vote.

No, it's not about racism. It's about Mitt Romney not appealing to voters on issues that affect the Black community.

So don't bother us about the overwhelming support of President Barack Obama. Why the Black community isn't into the Republican Party?

And don't try to rehash that false argument that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. You may lose more support.

Ron Paul: I Maybe Crazy! But I'm Not Endorsing Mitt Romney For President!

Two perennial candidates share a moment during the 2012 U.S. Presidential Campaign. Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) ends his third run for president. His often controversial stances on issues such as the foreign wars, the legalization of drugs and eliminating government agencies and the Federal Reserve attracted an often crazy but supportive base of voters. 
The perennial candidate closes out his campaign in Tampa saying he's not going to endorse the Republican nominee. Dubbed the godfather of the American Tea Party movement, this congressman has been at the forefront of the war against the bloated government. Even though, he achieved little success as a legislator, he managed to be a well-known presidential candidate. He is hated both by the left and the right, this perennial candidate knew how to get the crowd roaring.

As the potential Hurricane Isaac disrupts the Republican National Convention, the cult of Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) is embracing their candidate with a farewell. The candidate announced that he wasn't going to seek reelection for his congressional seat. So as he begins his retirement from the House of Representatives he puts into perspective of his third and final run for Republican presidential nomination.

With a strong (almost scary cult) following of supporters, their aggressive carpet bombing of the internet help garner the congressman respectful coverage.

The supporters believe that the "lack" of coverage of the Ron Paul presidential campaign is a conspiracy created by the mainstream media and Republican leaders to keep him off the ballot.

The supporters of Ron Paul scorned Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich. They believe these two candidates were establishment figures of a bigger conspiracy. They believe that the candidates are followers of the New World Order.

The supporters of Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) believe the world is misinformed. They want to wake us up! Reality hasn't woke them up! They've  been ridiculed as extremist. The supporters of the congressman's presidential bid are very passionate about this. They have hostile confrontations online and in the public with people. They can become violent if they're provoked by someone who criticized Congressman Ron Paul.
When Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) defected from his father's failed campaign to endorse the perennial candidate, former governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney, the supporters went totally crazy.


There might be some of these supporters reading this article.

I want them to know the honest opinion about this person.

Ron Paul is an establishment candidate who's "KOOKY" ideas appeal to the broad coalition of pot smokers, disengaged conservatives and libertarians who hate this GOP crop of Presidential candidates, liberals who think he's all about ending the wars, anti-Semitics who think that ending foreign aid to lower nations and Israel is the perfect solution (even though these nations aid the United States in these goddamn wars), extremists (the ones who appear on tax revolters, survivalist, conspiracy theorist and White Supremacists websites) and people who think they've "read the Constitution all the ways!"

Understand this!

Congressman Ron Paul has no accomplishments under his over 30 years in Congress.

One freaking bill was passed by Congress under his sponsorship. He has no other endorsement politically. No one supports a fringe candidate who has a cult of ignorance. Just because a few "weed" smoking celebrities (Snoop Dogg and Kelly Clarkson) endorses this piece of shit, doesn't mean shit!

They'll end up voting for President Barack Obama any fucking way (once again for you for your information). You and the many followers of the cult will get nowhere! What on earth thinks you got the notion that "he's winning" every freaking time!" Paul has not won any states and has the fewest delegates by far.

If he failed the first time and the second time. What gives you the notion to honestly think this candidate could win if he tried for the third time.


The Republicans refuse to invite the former governor of Alaska, Tea Party maven Sarah Palin, former president George W. Bush, former vice president Dick Cheney and Congressman Paul. They fear the potential impact of these figures upstaging the nominee.

According to the New York Times, convention planners offered the Texas congressman the chance to speak under two conditions: that he gave a speech pre-approved by Romney's campaign, and that he give a "full-fledged" endorsement of Mitt Romney.

“It wouldn’t be my speech," Paul said. "That would undo everything I’ve done in the last 30 years. I don’t fully endorse him for president."

While the libertarian candidate effectively ended his presidential bid when he announced that he would stop formally campaigning in May, many of his supporters have held on to the hope that Paul could amass enough support to challenge Romney's nomination. As the Associated Press points out, several hundred delegates are still pledged to support Paul.
                               
Romney's camp has made attempts at mending fences with Paul and his devotees. CBS News reported that a video paying tribute to Paul will be played during the convention.

"While they certainly disagree on many issues, they always have had ... a mutual respect," Romney campaign strategist Russ Schriefer told CBS.

However, Paul's reluctance to give his rival a ringing endorsement should come as little surprise. In May, Paul campaign chairman Jesse Benton told reporters that formal backing was unlikely.

During the presidential campaign, Rick Santorum hammered Paul for "going easy" on Romney while beating up on him and Gingrich. Santorum push forth the claim that Romney called a truce with Paul and they were working together for political favors at the Republican National Convention.

The last time Paul ran for president, he lost to Senator John McCain (R-Arizona). He went on to endorse the  controversial perennial candidate Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party.

Baldwin is a radical Christian fundamentalist who is affiliated with the White nationalist movement.

R.I.P. Aaliyah: More Than A Woman!


File:Aaliyah Dana Haughton 02.jpg
I Miss You, Aaliyah!
With all the talk of the death of Neil Armstrong, I haven't forgotten about another legendary talent we've lost. 

Before I and most of the world was glued to the television on September 11, 2001, I remember the day that I've heard that R & B singer Aaliyah was killed in tragic plane accident in the Bahamas.

I remember buying Aaliyah's third album on the whim of her first single "We Need A Resolution". My sister begged me to buy that album because she was at work and didn't have the cash to get it at the time.

I was 20 at the time of the tragedy. I was going to community college and I was going to work and struggling to live on my own. One night I came back from the club and I decided to sleep over at my parent's house.

AaliyahI come in at 3am and told my parents that I'll be sleeping in my old room tonight. As I entered the home, I went to turn on the television and watched MTV's The Lyricist Lounge Show, a show that once featured comedian Tracy Ellis Ross. Across the screen ticker was an announcement that Aaliyah was killed in a plane incident according to the Associated Press. I remember that Kurt Loder and Sway Calloway were talking about it on the MTV News updates. 

I told my sister about it the next day. She was attending a nearby university at the time. We were both saddened by the lost of this great talent.

It's been over 10 years since the tragedy and new album is in the works. Timbaland, Missy Elliot and rapper Drake are collaborating on an album based off some of her unreleased tracks.

Aaliyah's death came after finishing up the single "Rock The Boat". This video was directed by hip-hop video director Hype Williams. The plane that carried Aaliyah, the pilot her manager, some of her personal staff and two of her family members crashed upon takeoff. The pilot was inexperienced and was on cocaine at the time of flight. 

Gladys Knight is the godmother of the late singer and Damon Dash former CEO of Roc-A-Fella Records was to marry the singer after the filming of her last movie Queen of The Damned. They were devastated by this tragedy.

From Wikipedia, She was born in Brooklyn, New York, and was raised in Detroit, Michigan. At the age of 10, she appeared on the television show Star Search and performed in concert alongside Gladys Knight. At age 12, Aaliyah signed with Jive Records and her uncle Barry Hankerson's Blackground Records. 

Drake announced that he will produce Aaliyah album.
Hankerson introduced her to R. Kelly, who became her mentor, as well as lead songwriter and producer of her debut album, Age Ain't Nothing but a Number. The album sold three million copies in the United States and was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). After facing allegations of an illegal marriage with R. Kelly, Aaliyah ended her contract with Jive and signed with Atlantic Records.
Aaliyah worked with record producers Timbaland and Missy Elliott for her second album, One in a Million; it sold 3.7 million copies in the United States and over eight million copies worldwide. In 2000, Aaliyah appeared in her first major film, Romeo Must Die. She contributed to the film's soundtrack, which spawned the single "Try Again". The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 solely on airplay, making Aaliyah the first artist in Billboard history to achieve this feat. "Try Again" earned Aaliyah a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocalist.

After completing Romeo Must Die, Aaliyah filmed her part in Queen of the Damned. She released her third and final album, Aaliyah, in July 2001. On August 25, 2001, Aaliyah and eight others were killed in an airplane crash in The Bahamas after filming the music video for the single "Rock the Boat". The pilot, Luis Morales III, was unlicensed at the time of the accident and had traces of cocaine and alcohol in his system. 

Aaliyah's family later filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Blackhawk International Airways, which was settled out of court. Since then, Aaliyah's music has continued to achieve commercial success with several posthumous releases. Aaliyah is estimated to have sold 24 to 32 million albums worldwide. She has been credited for helping redefine contemporary R&B and hip hop, earning her the nicknames "Princess of R&B" and "Queen of Urban Pop". She is listed by Billboard as the tenth most successful female R&B artist of the past 25 years, and 27th most successful R&B artist overall.

Fox News Outs Navy Seal [Spy]!

Fox News vindictive agenda lead to a ex-Navy seal name being leaked. The Navy Seal was a participant in the successful Osama bin Laden raid in Pakistan.
The raid in Abbottabod, Pakistan that lead to the killing of the chief mastermind of the September 11, 2001 attacks was killed. President Barack Obama announced on May 1, 2011 that he order the Special Operations Units with assistance from the CIA to go into Pakistan to track Osama bin Laden. This was a huge political gamble. If President Obama would have failed in the mission, the Republicans would forever tarnish him as a failed president. Of course, he's called a "failed president" by his chief rivals. This event came around the time Mitt Romney and his former rivals were preparing to attack the president on matters such as foreign affairs and national security.

Now that this argument is off the table, the political novice team of Romney/Ryan are trying to focus only on the economy. They have no foreign policy experience. But that hasn't stopped them from complaining about the so-called leaks that are coming from the White House.

Republican legislators are trying to investigate classified documents in regards to the computer virus that crippled the Iranian nuclear program.

They're angry that the media found out that the president has been more aggressive in capturing or killing al-Qaeda operatives such as Abu Yahya al-Libi, Abu Ayyub al-Masri, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, Sheik Saeed al-Masri, and Hamza al-Jawfi  and American born Anwar al-Awlaki. They claim the president has a "kill list" it's zeroing in on American born al-Qaeda spokesman Adam Gadahn-Yahiye and leader Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri.

President Barack Obama gets no praise from any Republican on foreign relations. They can't give him credit for the successful raid that ended the life of the world's most dangerous terrorist. They figured that former president George W. Bush deserved most of the credit.

While this is now a political football, a former Navy seal decides to write a book outlining his experience in one of the world's most clandestine military operation. TheNavy seal "Mark Owens" wrote a specific account of the events that led to the killing of bin Laden.


Even though he decided to write the book, the conservative media is outraged over the fact that the president played his cards. The Republicans figured that people aren't impressed with his handling of the economy, so he'll figure out distraction to keep them busy. They think foreign affairs shouldn't be on the table.

Fox News has a vendetta against the president, Vice President Joe Biden, First Lady Michelle Obama, MSNBC and those who support them. The network figured since this guy is writing a book about the successful raid, they wanted to sabotage him by leaking his name to the public. The Associated Press was first to get the name of the operative who wrote the book. Under the Freedom of Information Act, a news organization could obtain the real name of the person that could affect the security of the country.

Fox News reported that the former Navy SEAL who wrote the book "No Easy Day" under the pseudonym Mark Owen is 36-year-old Matt Bissonnette.
                   
Supporters of al-Qaeda condemn the author and called for his death.

Bissonnette could face charges if he revealed any classified information that could jeopardize the capture of Adam Gadahn-Yahiye and Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri.

President Barack Obama's administration is very serious about leaking to the press. Bradley Manning, the first class U.S. Army private is facing life in prison for leaking. Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is facing a rape charge in Sweden and possible indictment by Attorney General Eric Holder for releasing information that is could put the lives of the U.S. Military at risk.

Bissonnette is from Alaska and he was one of the men who was had a camera showing the successful raid.

Neil Armstrong, first man to walk on moon, dead at 82


Neil Armstrong - First Moon Landing 1969


Neil Armstrong Passes Away!

Neil Armstrong has died after complications from heart surgery. The former astronaut was the first American to walk on the moon.
The first American astronaut to walk on the moon has died. The famed aviator has passed away according to multiple sources. Armstrong along with Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins have piloted the Apollo 11 spacecraft to the Earth's moon. This pave the gateway for missions to the planet Mars and dwarf planet Pluto.

President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney issued statements in regards to the death of a legendary hero of flight.

Hailed from the state of Ohio, Neil Armstrong was in the United States Navy and served in the Korean War. After the war, he served as a test pilot at the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) High-Speed Flight Station, now known as the Dryden Flight Research Center, where he flew over 900 flights in a variety of aircraft. As a research pilot, Armstrong served as project pilot on the F-100 Super Sabre A and C variants, F-101 Voodoo, and the Lockheed F-104A Starfighter. He also flew the Bell X-1B, Bell X-5, North American X-15, F-105 Thunderchief, F-106 Delta Dart, B-47 Stratojet, KC-135 Stratotanker, and was one of eight elite pilots involved in the paraglider research vehicle program (Paresev). He graduated from Purdue University and the University of Southern California. He became an astronaut in the late 1960s.

Neil Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930 in Wapakoneta, Ohio, to Stephen Koenig Armstrong and Viola Louise Engel.

Armstrong is famed for saying the words: One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind!


USA Today and the Associated press reported that he had undergone heart surgery August. 8, three days after his 82nd birthday. His family said that Armstrong had passed from post-surgery complications.

"We are heartbroken to share the news that Neil Armstrong has passed away following complications resulting from cardiovascular procedures,'' the family said in a statement. "Neil was our loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend."


The lunar landing made him more popular than his hero, aviator Charles Lindberg , but Armstrong shunned the spotlight. After walking on the moon, he lived a mostly private life, buying a farm and teaching aerospace engineering at the University of Cincinnati  until 1979.

When he appeared in Dayton, Ohio in 2003 to help celebrate the 100th anniversary of powered flight, he bounded onto a stage before 10,000 people packed into a baseball stadium. But he spoke for only a few seconds, did not mention the moon, and quickly ducked out of the spotlight.

"Neil Armstrong was a pioneer of flight and that is how he would want to be remembered," says space historian John Logsdon , author of JFK  and the Race to the Moon. "In his mind he flew all kinds of vehicles that set record firsts, and one of them happened to be the first one on the moon."
Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins assisted Neil Armstrong in the Apollo 11 mission.
Armstrong basically saw himself as an aviator first and foremost, part of the long tradition of American pilots going back to the Wright Brothers, Logsdon says.

"For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple request,'' his family said in a Saturday statement. "Honor his example of service, accomplishment and modesty, and the next time you walk outside on a clear night and see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink."

"He will be part of history forever," Logsdon said.

He had died in Columbus, Ohio today.

Mitt Romney: Can't You Take A [Birther] Joke?

I am glad you guys known I was born an American! The Romney Campaign denies that he cracked a dog whistle to the brither movement.
While stomping in Michigan, Mitt Romney the perennial candidate for president made a joke to dog whistle the extremist within the conservative movement.

What is apparent is this campaign and the president's campaign have focused on going hard on one another.

But how can the former governor of Massachusetts maintain a straight face and saying that?

He was talking about where he and his wife Ann Romney birthplace saying that Americans never questioned where he was born. That was apparently dig at President Barack Obama being constantly hounded about his birthplace.

Of course, the president was born in Hawaii. Conservatives aren't buying it. It generated a brief controversy when Donald Trump, the reality television star and businessman got into the issue of the president's birth certificate.

In late April 2011, the president released his long-form birth certificate. About a week later, he order the mission to kill Osama bin Laden.

Now that Romney rang the bell, the Obama campaign shot back. They believe that Mitt Romney is pandering to the birther movement to win voters.

Mitt Romney dismissed the claims and stated that it's a little bit of mild humor, get over it! Rush Limbaugh went on radio to praise the candidate for mentioning the birth certificate.


The Obama campaign released an ad is the latest in a string of responses from Romney's comment. First, a campaign spokesman slammed the Republican for "embrac[ing] the most strident voices in his party instead of standing up to them." Later, the president's official Twitter account followed with a barely veiled reference to the joke. The campaign also sent a fundraising email to supporters, with the subject line: "A new low for Mitt Romney."

Romney since insisted that he harbors no illusions about the president's birthplace, telling a reporter that, "there's no question about where he was born. He was born in the U.S."

"This was fun about us, and coming home," Romney went on to say.


Now that we're getting pass the Vice President Joe Biden and Congressman Todd Akin scandal, we turn to the ridiculous birther wars.

Yet, Mitt Romney hasn't shown the public his 2011 tax returns and President Barack Obama hasn't released a video that inspires the magic he obtained in 2008.

Mitt Romney can't take questions that could embarrass him. Conservatives make a huge fuss about these so-called "gotcha questions." When a local station ask the candidate questions about how to fix the economy, his negative campaign, why he choose Congressman Paul Ryan (R-Wisconsin) as his running mate, and his tax returns, they dodge the questions or attack the station for going into that issue.

When President Barack Obama takes questions that are trying to embarrass him, the conservatives are thrilled. When they question his birthplace, on why he's being called a socialist, his race, topics about other political players comments about Mitt Romney, or misquotes about his policies, the president answers them and does get annoyed with the interviewer. But when conservatives get wind of it, they claim that the interviewer is fair and the president is hostile.

This birther nonsense is racism. The White angry male is likely to believe that the president isn't an American born citizen. They believe that his father is Frank Marshall Davis, a Hawaiian political activist. They believe he's either a Muslim, Kenyan born or Indonesian born citizen and he managed to outmaneuver the media by disclosing these "facts". They claim he's spent millions of dollars trying to hide this information.

Mitt Romney will say or do anything to appeal to the conservative base. They're shaky on him. He wasn't their first choice. They've rather dealt with either Herman Cain,  Jeb Bush, Rick Santorum, Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) or even Senator Marco Rubio (R-Florida) as potential candidates.

Tragedy At New York's Empire State Building!


                            
Again another mass shooting. Despite the concerns raised by the Southern Poverty Law Center, law enforcement and gun control advocates, right wing extremism is on the rise.

Mitt Romney and the Republican Party will not acknowledge the growing anger within the conservative movement. They are allowing people like Sean Hannity, Matt Drudge, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh continue their charade of rabble rousing people who take politics too far.

Expect President Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, New York Democratic Senators Kristen Gillibrand and Charles Schumer, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie to make statements on the situation.

And in this case the tragedy in New York appears to be an apparent workplace shooting. The New York Police Department is one of the finest and most controversial law enforcement agency in the country.

According to multiple news sources, the shooter Jeffery Johnson was apparently fired from his job over a year ago and he decided to take revenge on those who fired him.

Over multiple causalities and two confirmed dead. We will keep you updated on the situation as it develops.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those who were lost in this senseless tragedy.

Brother No !!!!!!!

LA Porn Star Started A Syphilis Outbreak!


Syphilis admission: Porn star Mr Marcus has admitted he continued to work after contracting the bacterial infection on set which has led to the shut down of the adult film industry in Los Angeles
Black porn star has confessed to starting a dangerous outbreak of the STD known as syphilis. He not only put his life at risk, but gave guaranteed assurance of riling up conservatives and White supremacists. In turn, they'll use this as an excuse to blame President Barack Obama and the Black community for something.
The adult entertainment industry is rattled by a member's confession that he's obtained a dangerous disease.

Mr. Marcus (Marcus Spencer, age 41) is an African American porn star comes out of the shadows admitting that he has put thousands of  people's lives at risk of syphilis.

Once again, I stress this story is NSFW (Not Safe For Work). This story will rile up conservatives and White supremacists. They already have a negative opinion about the Black community and President Barack Obama. They are going to paint Black males as sex crazy lunatics. They're going to tie the president to this individual.

As a porn star, many in the adult industry perform sex acts on women, men, and transexuals. Sometimes when they perform sex acts, they are not wearing condoms. They are required to have mandatory STD and HIV-testing.

Mr. Marcus' selfish act of altering his test results has rocked the industry.

According to the Huffington Post and AVN (Adult Video News), he believes he contracted the STD on set but admits that he altered his syphilis-positive test so that he could keep performing. His altered test was what started the scare and initiated the industry's self-imposed 10-day moratorium while actors are tested and treated for syphilis.

"I tried to cover it up… Because I said it was like the scarlet letter. It’s the word. Syphilis, whoa," Marcus said to XBiz. "Mr. Marcus, syphilis? Mr. Marcus, the one I worked with? The one that everybody works with? The one that’s been in this industry forever?"

In an emotional interview that brought the 18-year veteran actor to tears, Marcus said that he only altered the test because his doctor told him he would not be contagious 10 days after taking a shot of penicillin. “I have to live with this, no one else does,” he said. “I’m very sorry. I did not think that this would come out like this."

The porn actor was diagnosed with syphilis on July 12, received a penicillin shot on July 13 and returned to work 11 days later, on July 24, AVN reports. However, he still had the STD. Perhaps most disturbing, the producer of the shoot didn't ask for a paper or digital copy of Marcus' STD test. Instead, the actor showed a copy of the test on his cell phone so that the syphilis portion wasn't visible.

For a subsequent porn shoot, Marcus said he folded his test covering the syphilis portion and photocopied it.

However, a producer noticed this time that the numbers were missing and called Marcus out on it.


As many as nine syphilis cases have been identified among porn performers, and more are expected, according to the Associated Press. Marcus said that the three women he performed with after his diagnosis have all tested negative for syphilis.


You can be disappointed, but don't throw stones. Some of you are living in glass houses.


Speculation it came from Hungary: Porn star Aletta Ocean said on Tuesday that she contracted syphilis in Hungary leading to speculation that the outbreak came from there
Hungarian porn star Aletta Ocean contracted the disease. 
The porn moratorium comes days after the California Department of Public Health released a report finding that syphilis cases in the Golden State have jumped by 18 percent from 2010 to 2011. Men had a vastly higher rate as it largely affects men who have sex with men. The STD also affected African Americans at a higher rate than any other racial demographic.

Los Angeles County officials have approved a ballot initiative that will ask voters to decide whether porn actors should be required to wear condoms in sex scenes.

According to The Daily Mail, Porn star Aletta Ocean, 24, said on Tuesday that she contracted syphilis while shooting movies in Budapest, Hungary.
Her revelation led to speculation that the outbreak of the disease came from Hungary.


According to porn industry blog LukeIsBack.com she tweeted: 'F****** siphilis problem… In Budapest many people got it..Me too…’

Sex workers are supposed to undergo regular blood tests to ensure they are free of sexually transmitted disease.

It was reported that one of the labs frequented by porn stars does not test for syphilis.

Syphilis is a treatable bacterial infection that can be spread by both bodily fluids and contact with infected skin.

Its causes skin lesions and rashes. If left untreated, it can permanently alter and damage internal organs and brain function.

The number of syphilis cases in California has jumped 18 per cent according to a recent report from the California Department of Public Health.

The results showed a much higher rate of men had contracted the infection and that African Americans were affected more than any other racial demographic.

The outbreak is likely to bolster a ballot issue in November that aims to force all porn performers to wear condoms during pornography shoots.

Condom use has become of political issue in Los Angeles since a 2010 AIDS outbreak, which infected one performer.

The Todd Akin Scandal: Drudge Wants To Scalp Al Franken's Head!


There's talk that Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) getting out the U.S. Senate Race. The Republicans want him not only out of the race but to resign from the House of Representatives. They fear his impact could damage the Romney/Ryan Campaign.
So Matt Drudge wants to make the controversy involving Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri) deflect off to actor/writer Senator Al Franken (D-Minnesota)! On the infamous Drudge Report, the gay conservative agitator is pulling out the "big guns" and going back after his old enemy. When Matt Drudge ended his radio program in 2007, he handed the keys to Cincinnati's controversial talker Bill Cunningham. Cunningham takes the mantle and focuses his daily and Sunday based program on issues about his community of Cincinnati and the national news based off the Drudge formula. When Al Franken was on the radio, he wished the agitator happy trails. But he got a good dig at Drudge on his way out!

Since then, it's been kind of a retaliation for Matt Drudge to go after his rivals. When Franken ended his program to run for the U.S. Senate, he took on then Senator Norm Coleman (R-Minnesota), a former mayor and Democrat who switched parties. In a contested race between the candidates, the Republicans were hoping that Franken would lose big. They've thought wrong!

Then they've went forth to contest the race results.

The race resulted in less than 1,000 votes between Coleman and Franken.

Coleman conceded the race! Franken became the new senator.

Now that it's been three years since he's been in office. The Republicans hate him as much as Barack Obama. They thought he was going to be acting like a "comedian". So far, he's been a very serious about issues. The senator has worked hard for the people of Minnesota. He managed to keep the focus on the middle class. He never backs down from the responsibilities as a senator.

The Todd Akin Scandal has distracted the Mitt Romney Campaign. They fear that the message on the economy will dwindle away from voters minds. They fear that members of the Republican Party will screw it up by focusing on issues that will turn off moderates. The culture war is an ongoing controversy and they fear the moderates and independents will swing to President Barack Obama.
Senator Al Franken (D-Minnesota) and Vice President Joe Biden. The conservatives are trying to tie the extreme comments of Congressman Todd Akin (R-Missouri).
The Weekly Standard, a conservative publication from the NewsCorp founded by Bill Kristol and Fred Barnes is trying to find an excuse. They wanted to paint Senator Al Franken then a writer on the TV show Saturday Night Live as a serial pervert. Then, he famously joked about raping CBS reporter Lesley Stahl.

As New York magazine reported in 1995, from a writing session that the reporter sat in on:

Franken: “And, ‘I give the pills to Lesley Stahl. Then, when Lesley’s passed out, I take her to the closet and rape her.’ Or, ‘That’s why you never see Lesley until February.’ Or, ‘When she passes out, I put her in various positions and take pictures of her.’”

With the national conversation now turning to women's issues as a result of the bizarre and offensive comments by Missouri Senate candidate Todd Akin over the weekend, it seems a bit odd that Vice President Biden would take the stage with Franken, considering his own lack of sensitivity to the horrors of rape.

Since conservatives love to blame the so-called liberal media for saying things that come off as racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, condescending, overreaching, and moronic, the Republicans want this controversy to disappear.

So what do they do, blame others and President Barack Obama?
