I've Never Seen Barack Obama Eat Watermelon!

Real laugh riot!

But those conservatives once again bring forth their hatred of the nation's first Black president in a negative condescending and practically racist theme.

No surprise that the state of Kentucky is the hub of Appalachia. These poor ignorant ass White people fear the Godless Muslim, Socialist, Commie, Traitor And His Fat Ass Wife That Looks Like A Baboon.

See it's never us that invoke the hate, it's always them. They prove to Blacks, Hispanics and non-White Americans that Republicans aren't focused on the concerns. They're focused on dividing us with class warfare and then turn around and blame President Barack Obama for their own doing.

A Casey County man says the life-sized mannequin in his front yard of President Obama holding a slice of watermelon was meant as a joke and not a racist display.

"The way I look at it, it's freedom of speech," said Danny Hafley. "I don't know how other people will take it."

WHITE EXTREMIST Danny Hafley stands near his statue.

Hafley bought the Obama mask on sale after Halloween and put up the display around the time of November's presidential election.

The mannequin, dressed in a grey suit, clip-on tie and blue-collared shirt, was originally standing in Hafley's yard but the homeowner decided it would look better near the road.

"That's my buddy," Hafley said. "He don't talk. Don't make no smart comments. If I had a dollar for everyone who stopped and took a picture of it I'd be a millionaire."

When asked the reason behind the watermelon, Hafley responded that he thought the figure "might get hungry standing out here."

While several neighbors didn't find anything wrong with the life-sized doll and said Hafley had the right to display it, one anonymous neighbor felt others would find it racist.

"If he wants to place it someplace else that would be fine," said the neighbor. "We don't have black people in this community but I'm sure they travel this road like everybody else does. They could be offended. I don't agree with it."

The neighbor added that the figure originally had a sign asking people to pray that Obama won't destroy America.

This isn't the first time Hafley has made such a display. He pulled off the mask and unbuttoned the suit coat to show a white mannequin with a drawn-on moustache wearing a blue-collared shirt with "Stupidville Police Department' written on the right side. Hafley said he designed it after Hustonville Police Chief Fred McCoy.

"Freddy is what I named him," Hafley said.

Hafley says he doesn't plan on taking down the display until the springtime or whenever it gets him in trouble.

"He's pretty popular," Hafley said. "If he's as popular in Washington as he is here then he's a popular man."

To add insult to this conflict, his daughter took to Facebook to defend her father's blatant racism.

  This toothless, white-trash, redneck that you are referring to, served his country in the U.S. Army for 18 years and defended millions of strangers in Viet Nam. Therefore , I think that he earned his right to voice his opinions and display anything he wants.

And again, he earned his right to defend his "racist" ideas when he defended his country in Viet Nam!

Mark Preston So they can then force him to remove it???? That is exactly what would happen. This started out as a political statement. He put this on display asking people to pray for America, because 4 more years with Obama as president will destroy America. He removed it a couple of weeks ago because of the holiday season. But someone made the comment that he removed it because he got scared when a car full of African American's stopped and told him to take it down. That's when he put the display back up, but added the watermelon to it.

  Very proud to be like my father. At least he is brave enough to stand up for what he believes in. Can you say the same thing?

  Angie Hafley Stevens oh my god lol. yeah sure youre right, he has the right to make himself look like a racist idiot (just like you do) but we also have the right to call him out on being a piece of human trash. a car full of black people, omg lol. Serving in vietnam doesnt give him some kind of shield that keeps people from calling out what a hateful bigot he is. Are you from that area too?? is everyone there so hopelessly racist?

  You are probably correct. But you know what? At least he is man enough to stand up for what he believes in. He is prepared to face whatever consequences this may bring him. This was originally displayed during election time with a sign that read, "4 more years of this will destroy America." It wasn't until someone else tried to turn it into something racist, that he added the watermelon. It wasn't racist views that started this whole thing. It was his fear of "Godless" man being elected as our president again. He believes in God and believes that God should be an important part of our government, school, daily lifes, etc. He believes in our constitutional rights (all of them........freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to bear arms, etc)

It's proven time after time that Americans are so fucking stupid! !t's unbelievable at times. Once again White extremists online and in the general public figure these negative stereotypes of Black people being chicken bone sucking, watermelon eating, purple drank slurping, welfare grabbing, gubmint gibb mes is true! They think the Black people voted for President Barack Obama so they can get their Obama Phones and Obama Money!

They attack hip-hop music for embracing in the gun culture. But when a White mass shooter kills Americans, it's not about the guns it's about the man. They want gun control over Blacks, Hispanics and Muslims. But never the White guy. It's gun rights for them.

That is the reason to why Republicans and their conservative allies are the racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, condescending idiots liberals paint them out to be!

Fontella Bass Passes Away!

Fontella Bass passes away. Her famous single Rescue Me hit the charts in 1960s.

You may of heard of the famous song, Rescue Me and wondered who sung that one?

Well today, you'll get an opportunity to know who the singer was! Today she passed away at the age of 72.

Fontella Bass, a St. Louis-born soul singer died Wednesday night at a St. Louis hospice of complications from a heart attack suffered three weeks ago, her daughter, Neuka Mitchell, said. Bass had also suffered a series of strokes over the past seven years.

"She was an outgoing person," Mitchell said of her mother. "She had a very big personality. Any room she entered she just lit the room up, whether she was on stage or just going out to eat."

Bass was born into a family with deep musical roots. Her mother was gospel singer Martha Bass, one of the Clara Ward Singers. Her younger brother, David Peaston, had a string of R&B hits in the 1980s and 1990s. Peaston died in February at age 54.

Bass began performing at a young age, singing in her church's choir at age 6. She was surrounded by music, often traveling on national tours with her mother and her gospel group.

Her interest turned from gospel to R&B when she was a teenager and she began her professional career at the Showboat Club in north St. Louis at age 17. She eventually auditioned for Chess Records and landed a recording contract, first as a duet artist. Her duet with Bobby McClure, "Don't Mess Up a Good Thing," reached No. 5 on the R&B charts and No. 33 on the Billboard Top 100 in 1965.

She co-wrote and later that year recorded "Rescue Me," reaching No. 1 on the R&B charts and No. 4 on the Billboard pop singles chart. Bass's powerful voice bore a striking resemblance to that of Aretha Franklin, who is often misidentified as the singer of that chart-topping hit.

Bass had a few other modest hits but by her own accounts developed a reputation as a troublemaker because she demanded more artistic control, and more money for her songs. She haggled over royalty rights to "Rescue Me" for years before reaching a settlement in the late 1980s, Mitchell said. She sued American Express over the use of "Rescue Me" in a commercial, settling for an undisclosed amount in 1993.

"Rescue Me" has been covered by many top artists, including Linda Ronstadt, Cher, Melissa Manchester and Pat Benatar. Franklin eventually sang a form of it too – as "Deliver Me" in a Pizza Hut TV ad in 1991.

Bass lived briefly in Europe before returning to St. Louis in the early 1970s, where she and husband jazz musician Lester Bowie raised their family. She recorded occasionally, including a 1995 gospel album, "No Ways Tired," that earned a Grammy nomination.

Bass was inducted into the St. Louis Hall of Fame in 2000.

Funeral arrangements for Bass were incomplete. She is survived by four children. Bowie died in 1999.

GOP: Tokens Please!

Republicans are propping up Tim Scott as their new shield against charges of racism and extremism.

Republicans never cease to amaze me about how many shiny coins they find in the gutter. They're already playing racial politics with the latest appointment to a late senator's seat.

They're bragging about them being the party with at least a Black member in the senate.

But the Democrats can brag about having the first Black person elected twice to serve as President of the United States.

Senator Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii)

To be blunt, I knew this would happen. Hawaiian governor Neil Abercrombie is catching flack from the conservative media for appointing a successor of the late Daniel Inouye, the nation's longest serving senator.

The veteran of World War II, Medal of Honor who was an amputee served as a senator for Hawaii since 1963. He died in late December, and the governor had to appoint a person to finish his term. Abercrombie appointed lieutenant governor Brian Schantz to replace him. Congresswoman Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) won a U.S. senate race and will become the first Hawaiian female senator and Asian American woman to serve. Daniel Akaka, a moderate Democrat is retiring from the senate and Inouye declared that he would run in 2014, before his death. The conservative media rancor started when the dying senator wanted freshman Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa (D-Hawaii) or another woman to take his seat. That was ignored by the governor. The Republicans are crowing about politcial cronyism

I knew it was going to happen that the Republicans prop up Tim Scott! The South Carolina congressman is now going to replace Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina). Scott is an African American who ran under the Tea Party flank. He is going to be the only Black member of the Senate. He refuses to join the Black or Hispanic caucuses. Scott is going to be the Republican "NEXT BLACK HOPE". Soon you'll hear talk about a "real Black man" running for president.

Minus Herman Cain and Alan Keyes!

The Democrats scoffing at this one! They're probably lining a serious contender against Scott. They're likely going to appoint a Black candidate to run against Scott.

Retiring senator Jim DeMint and replacement Tim Scott are conservative Republicans. Scott promised to carry the mantle. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina) is the country's most controversial politician. He is the king of gridlock.

But I am hearing Mark Bellings, a stand-in for Rush Limbaugh today whining about the Republican Party's lack of diversity. He is bragging about the pick of Scott and elected member Ted Cruz, a Canadian born Hispanic legislator who becomes the newest senator from Texas. The conservative agitator wonders why since the Democrats are all about diversity, why isn't there any members of the senate from their party being Black!

Well for one thing, Harold Ford lost after a GOP ad featuring a scantly clad woman told Ford to "call me!"

Kendrick Meek was running a three man show against former Republican Charlie Crist and Republican Marco Rubio. Crist was the pick of President Barack Obama and former Bill Clinton. They were hoping that Meek dropped out. Meek refused and continued on to defeat.

Roland Burris was swamped in the Republican witch hunt over Rod Blagojevich. The former Illinois governor had tried to bribe potential picks for the president's former senate seat. Burris served the remaining three years of senate before retiring. The seat went to moderate Republican Mark Kirk, a Congressman from the state.

Every Black legislator who wanted to run for senate was either nominated for the respectful party but was handed a defeat after bitterness and unease from the voting public. Conservative Republicans and some Democrats harbor views that show bigotry towards race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, political and economic standings.

The Democrats have at least more members of Congress who are Black. When Scott takes seating on January 3, 2013, that leaves Republicans without a member of Congress being Black.

It's a lose-lose situation for the Republicans. Regardless of what they do.

He/She/They Said What???

President George H.W. Bush Fighting For Life!

George H.W. Bush, the 41st President Of The United States is in a Houston, Texas hospital. It's confirmed that his health is failing! We here at Journal de la Reyna wish him a speedy recovery.

The oldest living president is in intensive care in a Texas hospital with family. Former president George H.W. Bush, his son former president George W. Bush, first ladies Barbara and Laura are there.

George Herbert Walker Bush became the 41st president after beating Massachusetts governor Michael Dukakis in a landslide election. Bush served two terms as Vice President under 40th president Ronald Reagan. Bush served one term as president and paved the way for his son, George W. Bush to become the 43rd.

The former president celebrated his 85th birthday skydiving with CNN/HLN anchor Robin Meade.

Former president George H.W. Bush spent Christmas in a Houston hospital with a rising fever, his office confirms.

Spokesman Jim McGrath said in a statement Wednesday evening that doctors have put Bush in the intensive care unit and on a liquid diet.

“Following a series of setbacks including a persistent fever, President Bush was admitted to the intensive care unit at Methodist Hospital on Sunday where he remains in guarded condition,” McGrath said. “Doctors at Methodist continue to be cautiously optimistic about the current course of treatment. The President is alert and conversing with medical staff, and is surrounded by family.”

The 88-year-old has been in and out of Methodist Hospital since early November, battling a severe cough. In recent days, he has been undergoing physical therapy to rebuild his strength. Doctors expected he would be able to go home for Christmas, but Bush developed a fever that has left him weak.

President Barack Obama meets with former President George H.W. Bush and former Florida governor Jeb Bush.

On Christmas Day, the former president ate Chinese food with family members in the hospital.

Bush’s fever is being treated with Tylenol, according to the AP, but doctors haven’t figured out the cause. Meanwhile, the cough that brought him to the hospital has improved.

Bush held the presidency from 1989 to 1993. The oldest living president, he marked his 85th birthday in 2009 by skydiving.

Arrest The Media!

David Gregory shows NRA spokesperson Wayne LaPierre a magazine clip. The conservative extremists are demanding for David Gregory to be charged with a crime. The DC police are investigating if the NBC host violated the law.

Conservative Extremist agitating continues online and in the mainstream. The gun debate continues to rile up the advocates for control and supporters for rights.

The National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America had a media blitz and it only drew more controversy.

President of the NRA, David Keene was on CBS's Face The Nation to defend the gun rights organization.

NRA spokesperson Wayne LaPierre went on NBC's Meet The Press.

President of GAO, Larry Pratt goes on Piers Morgan on CNN and later The Bill Cunningham Live On Sunday Night Program.

Each of them defended the firearms and blame the entertainment industry. Each of them singled out President Barack Obama, Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California), the Brady Gun Control advocates and of course the mainstream media for politicizing regulations on firearms.

David Keene with Bob Schieffer.

Last Friday, the NRA responded to the Sandy Hook tragedy and the mounting criticism. LaPierre demanded that the Congress take action by having armed guards in America's schools. He pointed out that mental illness, video games like Mortal Kombat, Grand Theft Auto, Kindergarten Killer, and Resident Evil are corrupting the minds of sick individuals and the media for mention the name of the killer at Sandy Hook Elementary.

David Keene goes on Face The Nation and argues with host Bob Schieffer over the notion to reinstate a law that bans assault weapons.

Unsurprisingly, he came out swinging against tighter laws on guns.

"We will continue to oppose a ban on semiautomatic weapons," he said. ""These aren't military weapons," Keene continued. "If we equipped our army with the AR-15, we'd be beaten by every Third World - you know, every Third World dictatorship in the country. Military weapons are fully automatic weapons, and that's illegal. You don't get those. That's not what we're talking about."

Host Bob Schieffer asked Keene if he thought NRA's policies were at least partially responsible for the recent gun violence.

"We don't think they have," he said. "We're living in a country, a free country, where people have a right to express their Second Amendment rights."

When Schieffer said that it's easier to get a gun in the United States than a driver's license, Keene responded, "There' s a difference between a driver's license, driving is a privilege, and owning a firearm, which is a constitutional right."

Piers Morgan slams WHITE EXTREMIST Larry Pratt over gun laws.

"I'm not saying that every mental patient is a potential killer. I'm not saying that everybody that watches a video is a potential killer. That's not true. But neither is, everybody who owns a gun is a potential killer," he said."The fact that something is misused, whether it's a baseball bat, or the mass killing in a Chinese school with an axe and a knife, doesn't mean that you ban baseball bats, axes and knives or guns."

LaPierre's presser flopped. Many in the media were angered by his contentious blaming of others. He didn't get to the point of why should Americans own high capacity firearms such as the one used in Sandy Hook and recently Wesbter, New York.  The media hammered him for being more focused on guns than those who were lost. So in order to get clarification, he appears on Meet The Press with David Gregory.

Gregory criticized the NRA for allowing their blind support of more firearms! He tried to press him on what could the NRA do to prevent mass shootings, LaPierre dodged it. He held up a magazine clip from a high powered firearm. Asking him what could he do to prevent those from entering the hands of possible shooters.

LaPierre continues to distract the issue and the interview ended on a sour note.

Well here in the online world, The Daily Caller and numerous other conservative extremist websites balk on David Gregory breaking the law. I guess in the District Of Columbia, it's against the law to have possession of a high powered magazine clip. Washington, DC Metro police are aware of requests made by NBC News to hold a magazine clip, but it was denied at first. It was later confirmed that Gregory had permission from the ATF and local authorities. Although this matter is an open investigation, it's probably not likely that Gregory will get charge with a crime.

The commentator used an empty magazine clip as a prop to describe to the audience how a high capacity clip works inside a firearm.

Gun Owners of America president Larry Pratt on the other hand got his ass handed to him by British tabloid journalist Piers Morgan. The CNN host interviewed the WHITE EXTREMIST over the past week. Piers Morgan, a longtime advocate of new gun laws, has spoken out strongly in favor of gun control and the two got into it. Pratt went on to argue that gun laws promoted violence because people are unable to defend themselves, and said that gun bans in other countries have not affected violent crime rates.

Morgan said that was not true, and could not hold himself back. “You’re an unbelievably stupid man, aren’t you?” he said.

“It seems to me you are morally obtuse,” Pratt calmly responded. “You seem to prefer being a victim to being able to prevail over the criminal element. I don’t know why you want to be the criminal’s friend.”

“What a ridiculous argument," Morgan shot back. "You have absolutely no coherent argument. You don’t actually give a damn about the gun murder rate in America.”

The conservative extremists are fumed up! Alex Jones and his paranoid freaks of the internet went to the White House petition website demanding that Morgan should be deported for attacking Second Amendment. The petition is over 75,000 signatures as of today.

Quick summary of the Second Amendment:


As passed by the Congress: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

As ratified by the States and authenticated by Thomas Jefferson, Secretary of State:
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.


This is how WHITE TERRORISTS act. In their sick minds, they think they're protected from criticism. They put on this phony "patriotism" act to defend the indefensible. They don't understand the real message to the Second Amendment. All they know is that the amendment gives them a right to bear arms. All they understand is that if they can have the freedom to be the racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, condescending idiots, it's perfect fine with them. But how dare those dirty, race baiting, no job having, liberal hippies want laws to take our guns.

If you happen to be a White guy, you're entitled to have a firearm. But say if you're either a Black, Hispanic or even a Muslim, you have no business owning a firearm according to those in the extremist media.

You wonder why they always attack hip-hop music?

You wonder why they want all the "illegals" to depaorted?

You always wonder why they call Muslims terrorists?

Republicans and their allies in the conservative movement harbor bigotry towards a person's race, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, political and economic standings.
