It Was Bound To Happen: Rapper's Reality Show Agitated Right Wing Media!

The Million Dollar Controversy Man!

Shawty Lo, the 36 year old rapper from Atlanta, Georgia  is snapping his fingers and rolling his camera on his HUGE family. The rapper's reality show All My Baby's Mamas which is a feature on the Oxygen Network is driving outrage from Civil Rights groups and of course practically begged the conservative and White supremacy bubble to rant about it.

Sean Hannity, Neal Boortz, and numerous other agitators in the conservative media are fumed up over the rapper's television special being aired on the network.

The rapper fathered 11 children by ten women and he's proud to have them! But since he's strapped on cash and probably facing legal issues, Shawty Lo wants a controversy! So what does he do?

Shawty Lo appears with T.I. at a concert. The rappers are putting their families in the spotlight with reality television shows based loosely on their lives. 

Put his HUGE family on the television!

It was bound to happen! I knew the WHITE EXTREMISTS would rush to either their local racist waterhole! They'll listen to Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Neal Boortz, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity for outrage. They'll go online to conservative agitating blogs,The Drudge Report, The Blaze and The Daily Caller to toss a word salad of racial slurs and anti-Obama rhetoric.

I knew the Civil Right groups would rush to The Huffington Post, Bossip, SOHH, ThisIs50, WorldStarHipHop and AllHipHop for the news.

What these people failed to realize about this controversy: It's assured somebody's gonna watch it! You keep on mentioning it!

Jersey Shore, Buckwild, The Real World, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, TI and Tiny: The Family Hustle, Real Housewives, Basketball Wives, The Apprentice, and American Idol are television shows that promote controversy.

Still bitchin' about President Barack Obama beating that perennial loser Mitt Romney, Sean Hannity and Neal Boortz now waste their time finding outrage with Black entertainers who create controversy. They now automatically assume that any Black entertainer who drives controversy is an example of an Obama voter!

So what! Not a huge freaking deal?

These individuals are entitled to shame Shawty Lo (born Carlos Walker). I find no care for it! It's reality television, it's supposed to be chalk full of controversy.

They find it outrage with it because they think liberals promote racism. They figured out since this rapper has "baby mamas" he's automatically an Obama supporter who supports the GUBMINT.

They didn't complain when Jon and Kate Gosselin had promoted their children in the spotlight.

They didn't complain when Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar promoted their 20 children and 2 grandchildren.

They didn't complain too much about Mike and June Thompson promoting their daughter Alana "Honey Boo Boo" for the cameras.

They didn't complain because these people are Republicans.

They complain about The Kardashians, Jersey Shore and Buckwild because these people are young, vibrant and likely liberal supporters of Barack Obama.

But since he's a rapper and the hip-hop slang for "baby mama" was used: Sound the alarms, proof there is such a thing as "liberal racism"!

Shawty Lo and his children.

Shawty Lo also can celebrate this. It helps him generate buzz for his albums and concerts.

The rapper is a former member of the hip-hop group D4L. The group was known for the song "Laffy Taffy" and "Betcha Can't Do It Like Me!" The rapper also released a solo album. The single "Dunn Dunn" and "Dey Know" helped created a buzz for the rapper. Shawty Lo is affiliated with 50 Cent's G-Unit by association. The rapper is signed to Asylum Records, a Warner Music Group company.

Shawty Lo had a minor feud with T.I. (born Clifford Harris) in 2009. They since ended their feud.

T.I. has his own reality television show and his wive Tameka Cottle-Harris has previously hosted a reality show with Lil' Wayne's former wife Toya Cater.

Since people like Sean Hannity, Neal Boortz, Bill O'Reilly Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge, Michelle Malkin and others on television rambling on about Black racism, they'll end riling up Black voters and in turn spark another high turnout against Republicans.

By the way, I stated this before! Rachel Maddow will surpass Sean Hannity in ratings in late 2013. People are getting tired of the right wing carnival. Sean Hannity's ratings are pummeling fast. This is the latest reason for people to change the channel. A middle aged man worrying his ass off about reality television.

Hey Hannity! It's all fake! It's nothing but a ruse to generate ratings! Just like your Fox News program!

This video coming from NewsNinja2012 has the conservative agitator debating phony liberal Tamera Holder and Black extremist Deneen Borelli over the reality show and the phony outrage about it. I bet you that Hannity drops President Barack Obama's name in the segment.

Aurora Shooter In Court! [NSFW]

Staring into the abyss.

White terrorist James Holmes is appearing in court and the families of each victim affected by the shooting at an Aurora, Colorado movie theater. The preliminary hearing is a chance for family members to face the killer.

Holmes being held in confinement. His mass shooting and the Sandy Hook shooting sparked national debate on firearms and gun control.

President Barack Obama ordered a review on how to tackle gun control. He asked Vice President Joe Biden to gather up supporters of gun rights and gun control to figure out a winnable solution.

Jon Blunk was gunned down in July after he and his wife attended the Batman: The Dark Knight Rises movie.

This week alone, we've seen the unhinged continue their path to insanity. This week, conspiracy kook Alex Jones didn't help his case for gun rights. He practically embarrassed himself on CNN last night. Wayne LaPierre and Larry Pratt, are proven to be WHITE EXTREMISTS by their flagrant attacks on the president and Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California). Feinstein, was a survivor of a mass shooting that killed Harvey Milk, a gay councilman who championed equal rights in San Francisco. The NRA and Gun Owner's Association are working overtime to rile up White extremist into believing the president is coming for their guns.

The Denver Post details what's going on in Aurora. The boombox would blare the music. Holmes was trying to booby trap his apartment for another massive attack on police if they should find him.

The music would draw the attention. The attention would jostle the door. The door would tug the fishing line.

The line would topple the thermos full of glycerin, and the glycerin would mix in the frying pan with the potassium permanganate to create a flame.

The flame would set the petroleum-soaked carpet on fire. The fire would light the fuses. The fuses would detonate the jars filled with homemade thermite, smokeless powder and stove-top napalm mixed with bullets. The white ammonium chloride sprinkled across the floor by the front door, that was just to scare the police.

And that, Federal Bureau of Investigation agent Garrett Gumbinner testified Tuesday in the second day of the Aurora theater shooting preliminary hearing, was one of two active explosive systems investigators found inside suspect James Holmes' apartment.

There was one more, Gumbinner said, that involved 6-inch fireworks shells, a commercial pyrotechnic firing box atop the refrigerator, another boombox, a toy car and a remote control placed by a Dumpster.

"The whole apartment would have either exploded or caught fire," Gumbinner said.

It didn't, but only because neighbors who heard the loud music just after midnight on July 20 didn't bother to bang on the door.

Gumbinner was one of two detectives who interviewed Holmes the afternoon following the early-morning shooting, hoping to gain insight into how to safely defuse the explosive tangle they say he created.

"He said he rigged his apartment to explode and catch fire," Gumbinner said. "He said he was hoping to send resources to his apartment rather than the theater. By resources I mean law enforcement."

Prosecutors honed their attention Tuesday on the devilish, meticulous plotting they say was behind the July 20 attack that killed 12 and wounded at least 58 others.

President Barack Obama meets with shooting victims in 2012 during the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado.

In addition to Gumbinner, an Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agent detailed the 16 separate purchases Holmes is accused of making to acquire the four guns; 6,295 rounds of rifle, shotgun and handgun ammunition; dozens of gun magazines; ballistic gear; weapon slings; two laser sights; two tear-gas canisters; hundreds of practice targets; explosive chemicals; fireworks supplies; handcuffs; and a military first aid dressing.

ATF agent Steven Beggs said the purchases — all from online retailers or the Gander Mountain and Bass Pro Shops sporting goods stores in the metro area — began on May 10 and ended July 14. There were five purchases, alone, in the first week of July.

An Aurora detective also testified about two online dating profiles Holmes placed on the websites Match.com and Adult Friend Finder. Det. Tom Welton said in both, Holmes asked the same question: "Will you visit me in prison?"

James Holmes official mugshot from Arapahoe County.

But, as prosecutors sought to establish premeditation in the attack, Holmes' attorneys also revealed more of their strategy.

After prosecutors finished questioning Beggs, defense attorney Tamara Brady asked him whether it was illegal, for instance, to buy body armor or tear gas. Beggs said it wasn't in Colorado.

"Is there any process in place in Colorado," Brady persisted, "to screen out whether a severely mentally ill person is purchasing these items?"

Beggs said no.

In afternoon testimony, Aurora homicide Det. Craig Appel testified that police did not request a blood sample from Holmes after he was arrested. He said Holmes' pupils were wide, but that "I saw now indication that he was under the influence of anything."

But under defense questioning, he said Holmes' behavior was at times odd while he was under observation.

Paper bags had been placed over his hands to preserve evidence and Holmes played with them as though they were puppets, Appel said. He also tried to place a staple into an electrical socket, he said.

Appel also testified that investigators collected six shotgun hulls, 204 live .223 shells and 65 .223 casings from the theater. Most of the casing were found near the door to Theater 9. The .223 ammunition is what is typically used in an AR-15 type weapon. Appel said some of the bullets went through the wall of auditorium and struck people in Theater 8.

Appel also said iPhone evidence shows Holmes purchased his ticket to the midnight showing of "A Dark Knight Rises" through Fandango. The ticket was issued for Theater 8, however patrons are allowed to move between theaters, so someone who purchased a ticket for Theater 8 could watch the movie in Theater 9, he said.

In earlier testimony Tuesday, 911 calls from inside Theater 9 were played in the courtroom.

A weeping 13-year-old girl can be heard with the chaos of the theater behind her.

"My two cousins, they're sitting on the floor ... one of them" is not breathing, the girl told the dispatcher.

The Century 16 reopens despite controversy. Many complain that it's just too soon to continue business as usual. 

The teen's cousins were 6-year-old Veronica Moser-Sullivan and Veronica's mother, Ashley Moser.

The girl tells the 911 dispatcher who was trying to give CPR instructions, "I can't hear ... it's too loud ... I can't hear you. I'm so sorry."

Veronica was one of those who died. Moser was partially paralyzed.

The first 911 call came from Kevin Quinonez at 12:38 a.m., about 18 minutes after the movie "The Dark Knight Rises" started.

In the 27-second call, Aurora Police Det. Randy Hansen said he counted 30 booms, which were gunfire.

Quinonez' voice is frequently drowned out by the sound of the shots, but he can be heard saying, "There's some guy ... after us."

Lives were lost on July 20, 2012. The Aurora movie shooting was one of worst shooting in the nation's history.

Within a 10-minute period, dispatchers received 41 calls from the theater.

Some victims and family members had seats in the courtroom Tuesday and listened to the tapes as they were played. One woman covered her face with a handkerchief.

Beggs said that on June 17 Holmes bought shooting targets.

The new district attorney for the 18th Judicial District, George Brauchler, was among those in the courtroom Tuesday. He was sworn in Monday.

During the first day of testimony Monday, Aurora police officers who arrived at the theater early July 20 testified about apprehending Holmes and helping victims.

Rita Paulina, 45, whose arm was shattered in the attack, and her husband, Anggiat Situmeang, who carried her from the theater, went to the hearing Monday but refused to go into the courtroom, instead watching on a television feed set up for victims and families in another room.

The stories they heard triggered painful memories and stirred their emotions, said Situmeang, 47. As police recounted the scene they found at the theater, Situmeang recalled, "my tears were coming out."

When Paulina saw Holmes she grew frightened that he would leap up and commit mayhem in the court itself. "Our minds go back to six months ago," Situmeang said.

Sam Soudani, father of 23-year-old victim Farrah Soudani, said Monday that his daughter attended with several friends and co-workers from Red Robin.

Farrah Soudani was hit by an explosive device in the theater, her father said. She lost her spleen and a kidney and had a big gash in her side

"I'm the father. I'm here to hold her hand. Personally, I don't want to be here."

"She had a really hard time looking at him," he said of Holmes. "He has no emotion. He's like a robot."

Prosecutors hope to show there is enough evidence against Holmes for him to stand trial on 166 counts of murder, attempted murder and other crimes for the shootings at the Century Aurora 16 movie theater that left 12 dead and at least 58 injured.

Extremist Wants To Deport Piers Morgan!

Alex Jones is fired up! Worried about the end of days! But yet he manages to turn a profit!

Conspiracy kook Alex Jones made himself look like a fool in front of tabloid journalist Piers Morgan. Of course, his gullible audience will say that he mopped the floor with Morgan. It would be funny if not sad that to make yourself a part of the news, you would get into a shouting match for ratings. Great tactic Piers Morgan. You may be a worthy competitor to agitators Sean Hannity and Rachel Maddow

It's the talk of the nation: gun control!

Since the Sandy Hook shooting, many Americans are now turning to Washington, DC for swift action on gun control. The National Rifle Association, Gun Owner's Association, Republicans and their conservative allies in the media are trying to hyperbole everything into the blame.

Alex Jones confronts Piers Morgan. The exchange was contentious.

The NRA blames President Barack Obama, the entertainment industry (i.e. video games, hip-hop music, movies, television programs, etc.) and gun control advocates for Sandy Hook. The NRA thinks its reasonable to have armed guards in America's schools.

The United Kingdom has strict gun control laws and less violence in number to domestic attacks by firearms.

Piers Morgan makes no bones about gun control. He's gotten into shouting matches with firearm supporters and it's riled them up! Morgan got into it with WHITE EXTREMIST Larry Pratt of the Gun Owner's Association. That lit up the internet and got PrisonPlanet/InfoWars/radio host Alex Jones ribbed.

Jones and his advocates took to the White House petition website to demand that Morgan be sent back to the United Kingdom (hereby banning him for speaking out against the Second Amendment of the Bill Of Rights).

Jones is no stranger to agitation. He's hated by both the left and right as a kook. While he's promoting the end of days, Jones is selling survivor kits and food preparation meals. The fool is a "prepper" and "Christian Identity" extremist. The Southern Poverty Law Center and Anti-Defamation League calls him an agitator of the "right wing extremism". His commentary and website promotes the 9/11 and birther conspiracies.

Little Green Footballs founder Charles Johnson, disassociated himself from the conservative movement after numerous racial attacks on President Barack Obama and the Black community from the likes of Matt Drudge, Michelle Malkin and Alex Jones. These three agitators were instrumental in posting stories about racial unrest. Little Green Footballs was once a conservative website, it leans liberal now!

The Drudge Report has put forth stories on the website about potential "racial unrest" in the nation due to the reelection of President Barack Obama. During the 2012 U.S. Elections, Alex Jones and his allies were posting stories about Black violence in urban areas. Matt Drudge was tipped off and it landed on his website.

It wouldn't be worth my time to explain this character. He's shady.

Jones would count himself as an agitator of the conservative media.

The man who wants Piers Morgan deported for advocating gun control faced off with the CNN host on Morgan's show Monday night, denouncing Morgan as "a hatchet man of the New World Order" and warning of a new American revolution.

Radio talk show host Alex Jones backed a petition on the White House website calling on Morgan, a British citizen, to be deported "for his effort to undermine the Bill of Rights and for exploiting his position as a national network television host to stage attacks against the rights of American citizens."

Alex Jones: "The Republic will rise again when you attempt to take our guns"

"We did (this) to point out that this is globalism, and the megabanks that control the planet and brag they have taken over in Bloomberg, AP, Reuters, you name it -- brag they're going to get our guns as well," said Jones, who said his show is carried on 140 U.S. stations.

Morgan has been outspoken in calling for restrictions of semi-automatic rifles like the kind used in last year's mass killings in Newtown, Connecticut, and Aurora, Colorado. But Jones said the U.S. Constitution's guarantee of a right to bear arms "isn't there for duck hunting. It's there to protect us from tyrannical government and street thugs."

"Hitler took the guns. Stalin took the guns. Mao took the guns. Fidel Castro took the guns. Hugo Chavez took the guns. And I'm here to tell you, 1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms," Jones shouted.

This is a portion of CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight in which he engages with Alex Jones.

Teen Caught In Failed Mass Shooting Plot!

Derek Shrout may get life in prison for his plot to carry out a massacre on his high school. The teenager claims he's a devoted White supremacist. Yeah, wait til you go to prison. They'll eat this boy alive. You notice that the police officers escorting him to the courtroom are Black! An insult right?

A self proclaimed White supremacist was caught over the weekend after its was revealed the extremist tried to plot a mass shooting and bombing at his high school.

I guess he wanted to top the Sandy Hook shooting! It's a good thing that someone ratted this White terrorist out! It could of have been another mass shooting in an American school.

The Ledger-Enquirer based out of Columbus, Georgia, reports that the teenager wanted to commit a massacre! The reelection of President Barack Obama has driven the hate up! Firearm sales are up and conservative agitators in the media continue to push forth more divisive controversies that trigger the mentally disturbed to commit an act of terrorism.

Derek Shrout, 17, was released Monday afternoon from Russell County Jail on a $75,000 bond after he was arrested for allegedly planning to use homemade explosives in a terrorist attack on fellow students at Russell County High School in Seale, Ala.

Judge Albert Johnson set the following conditions for Shrout: He must remain at home; wear a GPS locator bracelet on his ankle; refrain from initiating contact with anyone connected to the school; and be monitored by a parent while on the Internet.

Johnson scheduled Shrout’s preliminary hearing for Feb. 12 at 9 a.m.

Shrout’s hands and ankles were chained as deputies escorted him into the courtroom Monday. He made no comment during his bond hearing. His attorney, Jeremy Armstrong, entered a plea of not guilty on his behalf.

After the hearing, Shrout’s family members declined comment. Armstrong said the case against Shrout is an overreaction in the wake of last month’s shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

“Our position is that our client had no intention to harm anybody,” Armstrong said.

Russell County Sheriff Heath Taylor said Sunday a search of Shrout’s home Friday found about a couple dozen small tobacco cans and two large cans, all with holes drilled in them and containing pellets.

Russell County Sheriff Heath Taylor said Sunday a search of Shrout’s home Friday found about a couple dozen small tobacco cans and two large cans, all with holes drilled in them and containing pellets.

He said other ingredients to complete the small bombs such as black powder, butane and fuses were not found.

Taylor said the devices were just “a step or two away from being ready to explode.”

Shrout described the bombs he was making in a journal, Taylor said, and, if completed the way Shrout described, the bombs would have blown up.

Chew bombs. Shrout planned to have homemade grenades installed in chewing tobacco tins.  

“It would have been serious,” Taylor said.

A teacher found the journal, determined it belonged to Shrout and gave it to an administrator who got it to School Resource Officer Tommy Morrison, one of Taylor’s deputies. He recognized the potential for danger, and Shrout was brought in for questioning, Taylor said.

Taylor said Shrout claimed the writing in the journal to be fictitious, but Shrout’s parents, whom Taylor called “very cooperative,” allowed a search of the house and the bomb materials were located.

Russell County Sheriff’s Deputy David Webster arrested Shrout on Friday evening in the department’s headquarters and charged him with first-degree attempted assault. It is Shrout’s first arrest, according to the report. The report also shows that Shrout lives on Pope Street in Fort Mitchell, Ala., and was born in Manassas, Va.

Shrout admitted to being a white supremacist, according to authorities.

“He has a lot of pent-up anger toward blacks,” Taylor said.

Russell County junior Jessica Watkins confirmed Shrout’s racist reputation.

Although he is a senior, Shrout is in Watkins’ history class this year to make up credits after transferring from out of state with his military family in October, she said. Watkins sat in Shrout’s seat Monday and was horrified by what she saw written on the desk.

“It said, ‘white power’ with the F-word, and it was covered in Nazi symbols,” Watkins said. The teacher tried to scrub it off, she said, but couldn’t because it was in permanent marker.

Shrout often would holler “white power” and make a “W” sign with his fingers and hold it to his chest, Watkins said. “But I always thought he was joking around,” she said.

Watkins said he heard that the Hispanic and black students mentioned as targets in Shrout’s journal were in her history class. “I teared up when I found out,” she said. “That was our lives he was going for.”

Shrout was involved in JROTC and often wore camouflage and boots, but he also has a soft side, Watkins said. Shrout helped Watkins study in class. “He was always so quiet and sweet,” she said.

Most puzzling to Watkins, she said, is that Shrout would use the N-word and other racial slurs, but a black student was considered his best friend.

God I Hate Stupid A** Black Conservatives!

Deneen Borelli is a far right Black extremist who wrote books attacking the Black community and President Barack Obama. She represents the mindset of radicalism in the United States.

Before I give my honest opinion of Black conservatives, I want to make sure that I leave nothing out! I want to be clear that they're entitled to be the condescending, hateful bigots they've promote themselves out to be!

It doesn't matter if they're Black, White, Hispanic, non-White, Christian, Jewish, Muslim or non-religious.

Conservatism is dosed in the fuel of hate of someone's race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, political and economic standings. They don't represent progress! Conservatives represent a shallow reality of American bigotry.

You can go into this narrative of me being hateful towards Black conservatives. I don't care anymore! I have no patience for this anymore!

I am tired of Black conservative agitators. I am tired of Travis Smiley and Cornell West running around with this "OBAMA GOT TO BE A BLACK MAN, FIRST" crap! I don't have no respect for them either! Smiley and West are liberal extremists and they will be addressed later.

If you think White conservatives are seriously disturbed individuals, you're right. But unfortunately, Black conservatives are just as bad. These individuals are progress in reverse when it comes to Civil Rights for all Americans. They believe that this country is on a slow path to destruction due to the policies of the "Democrat" Party and liberalism.

Jesse Lee Peterson is a Black extremist.

They rally around Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Booker T. Washington and Fredrick Douglass. They use their names in vein to promote a hateful agenda against Blacks, Hispanics, LGBT and the poor.

When you listen to people such as Jesse Lee Peterson, Alveda King, or even Deneen Borelli rushing to the cameras to promote conservative ideas, most look at them as extremists.

They hate when Black liberals call them "sell outs", "Uncle Toms", "bootlickers" and the such. Of course, they're so eager to call President Barack Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, "race hustlas", "racists" and "liberal slaveowners".

In my opinion honestly, I can't stand Black conservatives! They're just as bad as these White extremists in the conservative media.

How many times have you've heard from one of those Black conservatives who figured that Blacks were solely focused on helping "our brotha" Barack win reelection?

How many times have you've heard from a Black conservative about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. being a Republican?

Alveda King (right) is the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. She attends Tea Party spreading the gospel of her uncle being a registered Republican. Despite his surviving children saying otherwise, Alveda continues to profit off the legacy. Her uncle supported rights for all Americans. Alveda doesn't support abortions, gay marriage and immigration reform. She sits near Mike Huckabee, a former presidential candidate turned right wing agitator.

How many times have you've heard from a Black conservative when it comes to them being isolated from the rest of the Black community when they say condescending themes that paint a group as a threat?

How many times have you've heard a Black conservative say there "ain't no racism"?

How many times have you've heard a Black conservative say that if it wasn't for the Republican Party, civil rights would not have been passed?

How many times you've read in the comments section of a blog or even a Facebook posting saying that "all Blacks" are likely stuck on the plantation of "welfare", "gubmint handouts", "victimization", and "laziness"?

How many times have you've heard from a Black person who overwhelming supports Mitt Romney say that Republicans are the party that "freed" the slaves?

Okay, let me just say this clearly!

BLACK CONSERVATIVES = TOTAL EXTREMISTS

Yeah, I said it! I meant it, seriously.

Black conservative Larry Elder.

What the heck is wrong with these people?

Black conservatives are dumb ass human beings!

Why do we even give these people any attention anyways?

These individuals are just as upset over the president trouncing Mitt Romney, more than these White extremists in the Republican Party. They've complain about Blacks voting solely on race and not on policies!

I love how conservatives believe this crap about "patriotism" and "freedom"! These individuals are traitors to the nation and their freedom of speech should be noted for how society should basically ignore them for what they are, racist!

Why bother giving them airtime?

I mean seriously I think Rush Limbaugh and the like are profiting off of this "phony" conservatism! These guys aren't even conservative in the standard of Thomas Paine, Ronald Reagan or even George W. Bush!

These are stark crazy lunatics!

We do not live in a colorblind society. I don't understand why these idiots can't get it through their mentally inept heads. 

Conservatives are proven to show their extremism in the public arena. It's bad enough, they're sore losers, but their "principles" will doom this country!

Perennial candidate Herman Cain is a Black conservative agitator on radio.

If you hate the United States so much for its democracy and the leadership, go to a country of your choice!

Instead of wasting the time to create your own country on land that was originally owned by the Native Americans/First Nations, how about you grab all the garbage you've polluted the land with and make an island of filth and live your lives in hate of everyone else!

Seriously why should I waste my time giving these people a link to click on!

These assholes should shut up and move on with their lives!

But they can't do it! They're invested in hating on President Barack Obama for profit. Conservatives need an enemy. The media needs a scapegoat.

The changing demographics will be the end of the Republican Party. They can't get over the fact that non-White births surpassed this year and 30 years it's going to be a browner nation!

In a New York Times opinion piece by Adolph L. Reed, Jr., he states the Republicans boasting of newly appointed South Carolina senator Tim Scott, South Carolina's first Black senator. Scott will be the first black senator from the South since Reconstruction; the first black Republican senator since 1979, when Edward W. Brooke of Massachusetts retired; and, indeed, only the seventh African-American ever to serve in the chamber.

James David Manning is a birther and Black extremist. He preaches at the ATLAH Worldwide Church in Harlem, New York. He is one of the many controversial figures on YouTube saying not so nice things about President Barack Obama and the Black community.

But this “first black” rhetoric tends to interpret African-American political successes — including that of President Obama — as part of a morality play that dramatizes “how far we have come.” It obscures the fact that modern black Republicans have been more tokens than signs of progress.

The cheerleading over racial symbolism plays to the Republicans’ desperate need to woo (or at least appear to woo) minority voters, who favored Mr. Obama over Mitt Romney by huge margins. Mrs. Haley — a daughter of Sikh immigrants from Punjab, India — is the first female and first nonwhite governor of South Carolina, the home to white supremacists like John C. Calhoun, Preston S. Brooks, Ben Tillman and Strom Thurmond.

Armstrong Williams, a closeted Black conservative agitator.

Oh, don't forget North Carolina's Jesse Helms, the firebrand Republican senator. Anyways, Reed stated that  even if the Republicans managed to distance themselves from the thinly veiled racism of the Tea Party adherents who have moved the party rightward, they wouldn't do much better among black voters than they do now. I suspect that appointments like Mr. Scott’s are directed less at blacks — whom they know they aren’t going to win in any significant numbers — than at whites who are inclined to vote Republican but don’t want to have to think of themselves, or be thought of by others, as racist.

Just as white Southern Democrats once used cynical manipulations — poll taxes, grandfather clauses, literacy tests — to get around the 15th Amendment, so modern-day Republicans have deployed blacks to undermine black interests, as when President Ronald Reagan named Samuel R. Pierce Jr. to weaken the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Clarence M. Pendleton to enfeeble the Commission on Civil Rights and Clarence Thomas to enervate the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Over the course of history, racial alignments have shifted radically. The Democrats were the party of white supremacy until the New Deal. The Republicans were a party of relative, if feeble, support for civil rights until the 1950s. The tables have completely turned. No Republican presidential nominee has won the black vote since 1936. All four black Republicans who have served in the House since the Reagan era — Gary A. Franks in Connecticut, J. C. Watts Jr. in Oklahoma, Allen B. West in Florida and Mr. Scott — were elected from majority-white districts.

Juan Williams is a Fox News commentator who masquerades himself as a "liberal analysis". In reality, he's a Black conservative who tries to be at least "rational" on most issues in the Black community.

There is little that connects these men to mainstream black politics or to the country’s first two black senators, Hiram R. Revels and Blanche K. Bruce, who were elected (by the Mississippi State Senate) during Reconstruction, that extraordinary and brief moment of African-American political empowerment after the Civil War destroyed chattel slavery.

Not until the Great Migration of blacks to Northern cities between the two world wars were they again capable of electing candidates of their choosing. In the South, blacks began to register to vote in substantial numbers only after the Supreme Court overturned the “white primary,” which had allowed Southern Democrats to exclude blacks by defining the party as a private club, in 1944. The Voting Rights Act in 1965 turned the trickle of black politicians into a flood.

Old school right wingers Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell reject Affirmative Action and believe in this fallacy of a "colorblind" society in which racism doesn't exist.

But the increase in representation has been a mixed blessing. Redistricting and gerrymandering have produced “safe” seats for black politicians across the South but have also concentrated black votes in black districts, giving white Republicans a lock. (As The New York Times reported, House Democratic candidates won about 50.5 percent of the national vote last month but only 46 percent of the seats; in North Carolina, they won 51 percent of the vote but only 27 percent of the seats.)

Reed mentions that the trope of the black conservative has retained a man-bites-dog newsworthiness that is long past its shelf life. Clichés about fallen barriers are increasingly meaningless; symbols don’t make for coherent policies. Republicans will not gain significant black support unless they take policy positions that advance black interests. No number of Tim Scotts — or other cynical tokens — will change that!

Conservatives got riled up with this one! Regardless of how many Black Republicans they've lined up, they'll still be labeled extremists in the eye of me! 

Let me repeat this for the slow readers who are conservative.

If you're still stuck on 20th Century, you better wake the heck up!

The future will steamroll over you if you're still stuck on Ronald Reagan and the fears of the past.

This country will succeed with or without you!

GOP Feuds With Chuck Hagel! | Sour Krauthammer Says Hurricane Relief Is Rape!

President Barack Obama wants Chuck Hagel to be Defense Secretary. Republicans are opposed to the idea. This is a picture of the two when there were senators. Barack Obama was an Illinois senator running for president in 2008. He accompanied then Nebraska senator Chuck Hagel in Jordan.

A twofer!

The 113th Congress is in session. They first certified that Barack Obama won the reelection with 332 electoral votes over perennial loser Mitt Romney 206.

Now that that's out of the way, the president has work to do. First is fill the vacancies in his cabinet and then federal court.

The former Republican Nebraska senator Chuck Hagel is likely to replace Defense Secretary Leon Penetta.

President Barack Obama is going to swing the cabinet around with the departures of Penetta, Department of Transportation Ray LaHood, CIA director David Petareus, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of the Treasury Tim Geithner.

Republicans already signal a fight with the president over these replacements. Senator John Kerry and Hagel are the mentioned as replacements to fill the Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense.

Republicans already threaten filibuster over Kerry because of the Benghazi scandal. The Republicans want to have Secretary Hillary Clinton to testify to Congress about her role in the failed security of the Libyan consulate that lead to the deaths of four Americans one being a Libyan ambassador J. Christopher Stevens.

Republicans are going to give former senator Chuck Hagel a hard time to be confirmed as well. To make this worst, Republicans deem Hagel a "RINO" because he is endorsed by President Barack Obama. The controversy lingers among the senator's apparent criticism of Israel. Even some Democrats are concerned about this nomination.

The Jewish nation has been a key figure in the conflict over in the Middle East. The nation is conflicting with the Gaza Strip and West Bank. Those factions want to create an independent nation of Palestine, but it's constantly tied up with the United States, Israel and United Kingdom's blocking at the United Nations.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a highly conservative leader. President Barack Obama and Netanyahu have a tremulousness relationship to say at least. The prime minister ignores warnings from the Untied States and the United Nations constantly. The areas near Jerusalem are where Israelis want to build settlements (or real estate properties) on the Gaza Strip.

This has been a major conflict and this engages in the unrest of the Middle East.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is a firebrand among the conservatives. He promotes himself as a "fiscally responsible" Republican who will be the voice opposition to President Barack Obama.

Chuck Hagel on one hand said he represents the needs of the American people, not Israel! This lit up the right wing media. They already dismissed him for his endorsement of the president over perennial losers Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) and Mitt Romney.

The Daily Telegraph reports that Republicans sharply criticized the selection, promising to question Mr. Hagel on Israel and other controversial views in confirmation hearings by the Senate, which must approve his appointment.

Lindsey Graham, a Republican Senator for South Carolina, on Sunday described the pick as an "in-your-face nomination", telling CNN that Mr. Hagel "would be the most antagonistic secretary of defense towards the state of Israel in our nation's history".

Despite being a fellow Republican who sat in the Senate for the party from 1997 to 2009, Mr. Hagel holds markedly less hawkish views on foreign and military policy than many former colleagues.

The 66-year-old Vietnam veteran endorsed Mr Obama, a Democrat, in 2008, having criticized the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and urging a less gung-ho approach to America's alliance with Israel.

Mr. Hagel also voted against sanctions on Iran and urged Israel to engage in direct talks with Hamas, the militant Islamic group.

Mitch McConnell, a Senator for Kentucky and the party's leader in the upper chamber, predicted that Mr. Hagel would face "a lot of tough questions" from disgruntled Republicans.

 Congressman Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) is a favorite among the Tea Party Movement. Cotton retired as an U.S. Army Captain ran for congress and won. The freshman congressman is likely going to be on the television. Conservatives will push for him to run for president, since he's a rising star.

"His views with regard to Israel, for example, and Iran and all the other positions that he's taken over the years will be very much a matter of discussion in the confirmation process," he told ABC News.

In addition to ongoing tensions over Iran's nuclear program, Mr. Hagel is also likely to have to confront sharp cuts in spending on the military proposed by Mr. Obama and opposed by many Republicans.

Ted Cruz, a newly elected Republican senator for Texas and a favorite of the right-wing Tea Party movement, said that he too was "concerned" about Mr. Hagel's past statements. He accused Mr. Obama of being "high on re-election".

Mr Obama's Democratic party holds a majority in the Senate and it is highly unusual for a president's opponents to block the appointment of cabinet secretaries, even in times of sharp political division.

However, while in the minority, Republicans could wield the filibuster – an obstructive tactic – to prevent Mr. Hagel's nomination from being brought to a vote.

The pick was defended by Heidi Heitkamp, a Democratic senator for North Dakota, who described Mr. Hagel as "a tremendous patriot and statesman".

"This kind of fight is the kind of fight that the people of this country get so frustrated by," Ms. Heitkamp told ABC News.

Controversy over the likely nomination comes weeks after fierce Republican opposition torpedoed the hopes of Susan Rice, reportedly Mr. Obama's first choice to be Secretary of State.

Ms. Rice, America's UN ambassador, came under attack from Mr. Graham and two other senators for her role in the administration's public mishandling of the September 11 attack in Benghazi, Libya.

After Ms. Rice announced that she was withdrawing her name from consideration, Mr. Obama nominated Democratic Massachusetts Senator John Kerry, the former presidential candidate, to replace Hillary Clinton.

Charles Krauthammer used a bad analogy for hurricane relief.

Now you tell me Republicans! Why on earth are you that willing to expose your problems to the forefront.

Republicans have not only let their private affairs get into the public, but it allow the Democrats to rebound in popularity. The Republicans and conservatives are so extreme, they can't even trust one another now!

Last week, Congressman Peter King (R-New York) slams House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) for allowing the Hurricane Sandy relief bill die off. Boehner promised that a bill will be passed. On Friday, it was passed overwhelmingly but there were some Republicans who continue to hold the line for their "principles".

Arkansas Republican congressman Tom Cotton is a growing face in the Tea Party and he got his opportunity to flex his pea brain on the national networks. Senator Ted  Cruz (R-Texas) also managed to be the new voice of the Tea Party, with his broad and yet incorrect statements of the president.

It's likely they'll buddy up with the likes Fox News personalities Sean Hannity and Greta Van Susteren soon.

To make matters worse, it's just not Cotton and Cruz! The whole U.S. Congressional delegation from Kansas voted against the relief bill. These people unwilling to help the needy are embraced by the likes of famed writer and conservative alumni Charles Krauthammer. The often vocal Krauthammer went into a rant over how Democrats blaming former President George W. Bush for his handling of Hurricane Katrina.

So instead of figuring out who to the blame, Krauthammer says it's was the best idea for House Speaker Boehner to let the legislation die. He concluded that the relief bill was a "rape of the Treasury".

Tell me, Krauthammer, would you like to say this to the family who lost their home?

I guess he doesn't understand what New Jersey hot fist special is?

Governor Chris Christie (R-New Jersey), a potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate has hammered Republicans for constant delay of relief to his state.

I guess you might want to wheel yourself back a couple of feet. Krauthammer is paralyzed from the neck down after he fell in a diving accident. He is a Canadian-American duel citizen. He was born in Montreal, Quebec, but currently resides in Washington, DC.

Who Are You Calling A "Low Information" Voter?

A low information voter listens to people like Rush Limbaugh!

When you lose a presidential election, you figure out why did the nominee lose?

Many figured that perennial loser Mitt Romney ran a horrible campaign. They believe that his infamous 47% comments doomed him. They figured that due to the inconsistency of policies, most Americans couldn't trust him as president.

Despite these issues, many Republicans and their conservative agitating allies in the media are making another reason to why liberals consider them condescending, ignorant, racist morons!

The condescending comments begin with retiring radio shock jock Neal Boortz. The complaining began during the elections. When this ongoing whinefest of Benghazi came forth, Boortz whined that many people aren't concerned about this controversy. Boortz blogged about a conservative agitator confronting Ohio University students attending President Barack Obama event. The edited video has the agitator confronting students off guard with questions about Benghazi and the taxes. Hence forth, the newest right wing talking point, call an Obama supporter a "low information voter"!



Boortz, Rush Limbaugh, Herman Cain, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Glenn Beck Michelle Malkin, Fox News, The Drudge Report and many other conservative agitators in the media are now pushing the notion that most Obama supporters are "low information" voters. They complain that many Obama supporters care about issues like Kim Kardashian's pregnancy, Lindsay Lohan and American Idol.

NEWSFLASH: NO ONE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT POLITICS! MANY AMERICANS HATE TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT MAY COST FAMILIES TO BREAK UP OR FRIENDSHIPS! POLITICS IS TOO DIVISIVE! PEOPLE LIKE RUSH LIMBAUGH, NEAL BOORTZ AND MICHAEL SAVAGE ARE OLD AND OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE REST OF THE CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS! THEY HAVE A HUGE AUDIENCE OF LISTENERS BUT THE REST OF THE COUNTRY NEVER HEARD OF THEM AND DON'T GIVE TWO LICKS ABOUT THEM!

Neal Boortz and Herman Cain. The Atlanta based shock jock is retiring from radio. Perennial candidate Herman Cain will takeover for Boortz at the end of the month.

Okay, honestly most Americans don't follow politics. People find it to be extremely boring and too hostile.

People shouldn't discuss politics, sports, religion and past relationships around the table. These issues cost friendships and break up families.

It's a taboo in the country to discuss race relations in our country.

The younger generation wants change to the nation. They want the rich to pay more taxes, the president and Congress to compromise on issues, gay marriage, easy access to loans, and entitlements.

Unfortunately, the conservative agitators in the media haven't got a simple understanding of what a low information voter is! These websites Snopes, MyRightWingDad, The Drudge Retort (not The Drudge Report) show the most common fallacies spread around by conservatives. Now you tell me who is a low information voter when you go around saying that:

• Barack Obama was born in Kenya.
• Barack Obama is a Socialist.
• Barack Obama is a Muslim.
• Barack Obama endorses The New Black Panthers.
• Barack Obama is a communist.
• Barack Obama hates America.
• Barack Obama's real name is Berry Soetoro.
• Barack Obama is the anti-Christ.
• Barack Obama hasn't released his real birth certificate.
• Barack Obama's speech to school students to do well in school is a means to indoctrinate our kids with a left-wing political agenda.
• Barack Obama promised that unemployment would not go above 8 percent if the stimulus was passed. 
• Barack Obama’s spending has resulted in a huge budget deficit.
• Barack Obama's father is Frank Marshal Davis.
• Barack Obama is coming for the guns.
• Barack Obama spends taxpayer money to take vacations. Barack Obama vacations more than any president.
• Barack Obama and Michelle Obama demanded and spent more money than any first family to move into the White House.
• Barack Obama received extra money as part of his Nobel Peace award and he pocketed it all.
• Barack Obama has been secretive and unwilling to allow public or media access.
• Barack Obama is giving away free phones and money.
• Barack Obama wants government control of the car industry and health care.
• Barack Obama gets favorable media coverage.

If you believe in these things, then I guess you're more informed than the rest of America. But I can tell you that honestly, you're looked upon as crazy in my opinion if you believe half of the crap conservative talk radio tells you! 

Now if you want to have a dose of reality, how about Rush Limbaugh appearing on Family Guy! He openly admits that his talk radio rambling is all an act! Seth McFarlene, an Obama supporter and marijuana legalization advocate plays the role as family dog Brian Griffin (as well as patriarch Peter, rebellious toddler Stewie and sex crazed Quagmire). Family Guy lampoons the conservative agitator and Republicans. This clip from YouTube leaves out some of the most controversial scenes of the episode. 

The Family Guy episode from 2009 is called Excellence In Broadcasting.

ADDED: Okay, here's a reason to why President Barack Obama won! He maintains an active grassroots campaign based on highly skilled campaign operatives who keep close contact with individuals who voted for him in the last election. The president and his staff maintains constant contact through Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, email, text messaging, and field offices.

The president opened more field offices in swing states surpassing each failed Republican presidential candidate and eventually perennial loser Mitt Romney. President Barack Obama courted the entertainment industry to woe over voters. With celebrities who reach out to a larger audience, it made the president's reelection more easier than most people thought.

The Republicans and conservatives in the media have failed in active grassroot campaigns. The fallout from Tea Party Nation, FreedomWorks and Crossroads GPS shows that money can't buy an election. The Republicans spent more money trying to defeat President Barack Obama on a theme of NIGGERIZATION. The reckoned with a community organizer. The community organizer took these fools down hard. The news will get worse for Republicans come this second term. President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party are hoping that the momentum of distrust to Republicans continues. Democrats hope they can take back the House of Representatives.

An Amazing Life!

Oldest living African American woman died this week.

There's been plenty of supercenturians but none so than Marnie Rearden, the oldest African American woman. At age 114, she died Wednesday confirming her family.

Mamie Rearden of Edgefield, South Carolina who held the title as the country's oldest person for about two weeks, died Wednesday at a hospital in Augusta, Georgia, said Sara Rearden of Burtonsville, Maryland, and Janie Ruth Osborne of Edgefield. They said their mother broke her hip after a fall about three weeks ago.


"My mom was not president of the bank or anything, but she was very instrumental in raising a family and being a community person," said Sara Rearden, her youngest child. "Everybody can't go be president of a bank or president of a college, but we feel just as proud of her in her role as housewife and particularly as mother and homemaker."

Mamie Rearden, who was married to her husband Oacy for 59 years until his death in 1979, raised 11 children, 10 of whom survive, Sara Rearden said. She lived in the family homestead with a son and a daughter on land that had been in the family since her father's accumulation of acreage made him one of the area's largest black landowners.

Her father sent her off to earn a teaching certificate at Bettis Academy on the far side of the county, spending an entire day on a loaded wagon to reach the school along dirt roads, her daughter said. She taught for several years until becoming pregnant with her third child.

In the mid-1960s at age 65, when some settled into retirement, she learned to drive a car for the first time and started volunteering for an Edgefield County program that had her driving to the end of remote rural roads to find children whose parents were keeping them home from school, Sara Rearden said.

Mamie Rearden always counseled that her children should treat others as they wanted to be treated and that included never gossiping or speaking ill of others. When asked about a preacher's uninspiring sermon, her daughter recalled her mother saying: "`Well, it came from the Bible.' She never would bad-mouth them."

GOP Grumbles As They Finally Pass Hurricane Relief!

Congress passed Hurricane Sandy relief, finally!

This week has been very bad for Congressman John Boehner (R-Ohio). He's taken a lot of lumps from the left and yes, even the right when it came to debating important issues.

The 113th Congress appoints him again as the Speaker Of The House. This time, the weeping speaker is going to bring his A-game to President Barack Obama. Boehner and the more conservative Republicans members of the House of Representatives have fought over the past month with the fiscal cliff.

The fiscal cliff was a contentious debate. The Republicans fought tooth and nail for spending cuts. That didn't happen. President Barack Obama managed to box them in with tax cuts. The Bush tax cuts will expire for the upper end earners. And despite bipartisan passage of the fiscal cliff, Republicans were grumbling over this.

What also have Republican at odds with one another was hurricane relief. Speaker Boehner pulled the plug on the Hurricane Sandy relief causing a major rift between New York and New Jersey Republicans.

Congressman Pete King (R-New York) at first warned that if Congress fails at passing hurricane relief, he would rally local Republicans to not donate to the party.

All of this infighting was put to rest after Republicans elected John Boehner as the House Speaker. A few rogue members wanted former congressman Allen West to take the helm. Democrats rather had Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-California) as the speaker.

Republicans maintained this narrative that entitlements are out of control and their job is to prevent government dependency. 

Congress passed the relief bill today and it will be sent to President Barack Obama to be signed. The $9.7 billion package is guaranteed to aid those affected by the devastating superstorm that hit the Atlantic coast in October 2012.

The New York Times report that intense pressure from New York and New Jersey, Congress adopted legislation on Friday that would provide $9.7 billion to cover insurance claims filed by people whose homes were damaged or destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. 

The measure is the first, and least controversial, portion of a much larger aid package sought by the affected states to help homeowners and local governments recover costs associated with the storm. The House has pledged to take up the balance of the aid package on Jan. 15.

The House passed the insurance measure 354 to 67; it then cleared the Senate by unanimous consent. President Obama is expected to sign the measure into law.

In the House, all of the votes against the aid came from Republicans, who have objected that no cuts in other programs had been identified to pay for the measure despite the nation’s long-term deficit problem. The 67 Republicans who voted against the measure included 17 freshman lawmakers, suggesting that the new class will provide support to the sizable group of anti-spending conservatives already in the House.

Still weeping! 

Speaker John A. Boehner, Republican of Ohio, brought the bill to the House floor after he drew criticism from Democrats and Republicans alike for adjourning the previous Congress earlier this week without taking up a $60.4 billion aid bill that the Senate had passed to finance recovery efforts in the hurricane-battered states. Among those most critical of Mr. Boehner were several leading Republicans, including Representative Peter T. King of Long Island, who is a senior member of Congress, and Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, who is a possible presidential contender in 2016.

The bill adopted on Friday would give the National Flood Insurance Program the authority to borrow $9.7 billion to fill claims stemming from damage caused by Hurricane Sandy and other disasters. The Federal Emergency Management Agency, which administers the flood insurance program, recently notified Congress that it would run out of money within the next week to cover claims filed by individuals.

“The administration is pleased that Congress has taken action to ensure that FEMA continues to have the funds to cover flood insurance claims, including over 100,000 claims from Hurricane Sandy the agency has already received,” Clark Stevens, a White House spokesman, said in a statement. “We continue to urge Congress to take up and pass the full supplemental request submitted last year to ensure affected communities have the support they need for longer term recovery.”

Congress’s action did not fully mollify lawmakers from New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and other states struck by the storm. Some officials continued to criticize the chamber’s leadership for failing to act more quickly on the larger aid package, saying it provided the necessary financing to help the region rebuild.

“I am optimistic and worried,” said Senator Charles E. Schumer, Democrat of New York. “Optimistic because there is pressure on the House to produce. Worried because I know how difficult it is to get things through the Congress.”

Mr. Christie and Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo of New York, a Democrat, issued a similarly cautious statement.

“Today’s action by the House was a necessary and critical first step towards delivering aid to the people of New Jersey and New York,” they said. “While we are pleased with this progress, today was just a down payment, and it is now time to go even further and pass the final and more complete, clean disaster aid bill.”

The overall measure would provide money to help homeowners and small-business owners rebuild; to repair bridges, tunnels and transportation systems; to reimburse local governments for overtime costs of police, fire and other emergency services; and to replenish shorelines. It also would finance an assortment of longer-term projects that would help the region prepare for future storms.

Some Republicans have been critical of the size of the proposed aid package, and have suggested that it includes unnecessary spending on items that are not directly related to the hurricane, like $150 million for fisheries in Alaska and $2 million for museum roofs in Washington. Representative Frank A. LoBiondo, Republican of New Jersey, said Friday that the measure going before the House later this month would “strip out the extraneous spending directed to states not affected by the storm.”

“Today’s vote is a key step in getting critical federal assistance to the residents, businesses and communities devastated by Hurricane Sandy,” Mr. LoBiondo said in a statement. “I hope my colleagues recognize politics has no place when dealing with a disaster and that the overwhelming bipartisan support demonstrated today is present as the remaining federal aid is considered.”

In the House debate leading up to the vote on Friday, several lawmakers said it had taken too long for Congress to provide federal aid to the region and urged the speaker to make good on his pledge to bring the $51 billion aid package to the floor later this month.

“We have been waiting for 11 weeks,” said Representative Carolyn B. Maloney, a Democrat from New York City. “It is long overdue.”

Al Gore Sold Out Both Ways!

Al Gore is catching flack for getting a huge payday. Current TV is being sold to Al-Jazeera Worldwide and the network will finally break into the United States with groundbreaking coverage.

Former Vice President of The United States, Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Al Gore, once again puts himself in the news for all the wrong reasons. Today, the former vice president attracts not only outrage from the conservatives but the liberals as well.

Gore became a media mogul in the late 2000s when he and Joel Hyatt created Current TV. The network revamped its image last year with the addition of commentators who represented the progressive movement.

Well as of today, it's confirmed that Current TV was sold to Al-Jezeera, a Qatar based network that covers international news and politics in the United States. The network will revamp its image and purge itself of likely most of the staff.

Liberal agitators such as Cenk Uygur, Bill Press, David Shuster, Stephanie Miller, John Feuglsang, Joy Behar, former New York governor Eliot Spitzer and former Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm, were eager to jump into Current TV after the network had bumped off its former star Keith Olbermann.

Olbermann, the once mighty voice of MSNBC abruptly left the network after conflict with the network president and took an opportunity to join the Current TV staff. For at least one year, Olbermann brought his Countdown program with the same themes and unique stamina. But that all turned sour when Current fired him and they're feuding in court over a contractual agreement.

Keith Olbermann short tenure with Current TV went sour after nearly a year on the air.

Current TV staff, program hosts and cable subscribers were caught off guard by the decision.

The network prompted itself as the alternative to "MSNBC" and "Fox News". Unfortunately many cable subscribers couldn't get it on their regular lineups. Time Warner Cable, the nation's second largest cable provider has pulled the plug on Current TV after it learned that Al-Jazeera was moving in. The cable company attracted controversy for the pull and now its considering to add the news network to its lineup.

Fox News is the sworn enemy of President Barack Obama, former president Bill Clinton and Gore. The conservative news network wasted no time attacking the decision for Gore to sell his network.

Many of the commentators, one being the serial annoyance Sean Hannity were eager to attack Gore for allowing the sale of the network go forth. He went on to criticize Gore for being an advocate of the environment but he's willing to sell out for the oil rich nation of Qatar.

Bill O'Reilly was the most harshest of the commentators. Mediaite obtained the portion of The O'Reilly Factor in which the serial agitator blasted Gore for hypocrisy. O’Reilly took issue with Gore’s hypocrisy in trying to finalize the sale before the fiscal cliff deadline this past Monday night to avoid paying higher taxes, as well as doing a deal with “anti-Americans” at Al Jazeera. O’Reilly declared that Gore has “shamed himself” with the deal.

Stephanie Miller, a liberal talk host on Current TV.

Many conservatives believe that Al-Jazeera is "anti-American" for promoting terrorists videos, graphic images of victims, and hostile leaders criticizing the United States. Others consider the network very balanced in their coverage.

Al-Jazeera is by far one of the world's leading news organizations. They've covered news that most networks such as CNN, MSNBC and Fox News refuse to cover. While Fox News and MSNBC rank as the nation's largest cable news companies, these networks fear Al-Jazeera approach to the news will shape the opinion of the nation. So by Al-Jazeera jumping into the fray, one could think this will shake up things.

Now liberals are kind of mad that Al Gore would hire these commentators to host programs on the network and then give them the news that their jobs may be lost after the deal.

Stephanie Miller in particular is the 10th most listened radio host in the country. Her show Talking Liberally, comes forth through The Stephanie Miller Show, a nationally syndicated morning show. Miller, a comedian and liberal agitator is one of the fixtures of the network. Her radio show competes with conservative agitators Laura Ingraham and Glenn Beck. Ingraham and Beck are ranked the 4th and 5th most listened to in the nation respectfully.

Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks.

Eliot Spitzer was the former governor of New York embedded in a sex scandal. He left abruptly the governorship. He went on to host a program with Kathleen Parker on CNN. When Parker left after a few months, Spitzer took over and ran his program. With CNN's ratings down and the MSNBC and it's ratings of Rachel Madow, Al Sharpton, Ed Schultz, Lawrence O'Donnell improving, CNN let Spitzer go. They replace his show with Anderson Cooper. Spitzer replaces Keith Olbermann after he got into it with Current TV staff.

Jennifer Granholm, the former governor of Michigan came into the limelight after a passionate speech in favor of President Barack Obama. She was granted her own program and garnered positive reviews. Now that's uncertain where she'll go but it's likely ABC News since she rose to fame after she left Lansing, Michigan.

Bill Press is the morning host who features his program out of Washington, DC. He hosted The Bill Press Show on Current TV as the Full Court Press. Press is formerly a host on CNN's Crossfire. Press has filled in for MSNBC hosts before he went on Current TV.

Cenk Ugyur is also another fixture to Current TV. He is the host of The Young Turks, a daily program that runs concurrently on the internet and the network. Like Olbermann, Uygur had issues with the direction of MSNBC. He was angered by the decision to put Al Sharpton into his 6pm. When the network refused to hear him out, Uygur left the network. He began hosting The Young Turks on Current TV at 7pm. Uygur brings TYT to the nation. The program also has a YouTube channel which features some of the shows best interviews.

Their futures with Al-Jazeera America is uncertain but it's likely they'll be purged upon the change.

Eliot Spitzer joined Current TV in 2011.

The Associated Press reports that Al-Jazeera, the Pan-Arab news channel that struggled to win space on American cable television, has acquired Current TV, boosting its reach in the U.S. nearly ninefold to about 40 million homes. With a focus on U.S. news, it plans to rebrand the left-leaning news network that co-founder Al Gore couldn't make relevant.

The former vice president confirmed the sale Wednesday, saying in a statement that Al-Jazeera shares Current TV's mission "to give voice to those who are not typically heard; to speak truth to power; to provide independent and diverse points of view; and to tell the stories that no one else is telling."

The acquisition lifts Al-Jazeera's reach beyond a few large U.S. metropolitan areas including New York and Washington, where about 4.7 million homes can now watch Al-Jazeera English.

Al-Jazeera, owned by the government of Qatar, plans to gradually transform Current into a network called Al-Jazeera America by adding five to 10 new U.S. bureaus beyond the five it has now and hiring more journalists. More than half of the content will be U.S. news and the network will have its headquarters in New York, spokesman Stan Collender said.

Collender said there are no rules against foreign ownership of a cable channel — unlike the strict rules limiting foreign ownership of free-to-air TV stations. He said the move is based on demand, adding that 40 percent of viewing traffic on Al-Jazeera English's website is from the U.S.

"This is a pure business decision based on recognized demand," Collender said. "When people watch Al-Jazeera, they tend to like it a great deal."

Al-Jazeera has long struggled to get carriage in the U.S., and the deal suffered an immediate casualty as Time Warner Cable Inc., the nation's second-largest cable TV operator, announced it is dropping Current TV due to the deal.

"Our agreement with Current has been terminated and we will no longer be carrying the service. We are removing the service as quickly as possible," the company said in a statement.

Jennifer Granholm delivers a passionate speech for President Barack Obama. She hosted The War Room on Current TV.

Previous to Al-Jazeera's purchase, Current TV was in 60 million homes. It is carried by Comcast Corp., which owned less than a 10 percent stake in Current TV, as well as DirecTV. Neither company announced plans to drop the channel.

In 2010, Al-Jazeera English's managing director, Tony Burman, blamed a "very aggressive hostility" from the Bush administration for reluctance among cable and satellite companies to show the network.

Even so, Al-Jazeera has garnered respect for its ability to build a serious news product in a short time. In a statement announcing the deal, it touted numerous U.S. journalism awards it received in 2012, including the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award Grand Prize and the Scripps Howard Award for Television/Cable In-Depth Reporting.

But there may be a culture clash at the network. Dave Marash, a former "Nightline" reporter who worked for Al-Jazeera in Washington, said he left the network in 2008 in part because he sensed an anti-American bias there.

Joy Behar is a co-host on ABC's The View. But on weeknights she host her own program on Current TV.

Current, meanwhile, began as a groundbreaking effort to promote user-generated content. But it has settled into a more conventional format of political talk television with a liberal bent. Gore worked on-air as an analyst during its recent election night coverage.

Its leading personalities are former New York Governor Elliot Spitzer, former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm and Cenk Uygur, a former political commentator on MSNBC who hosts the show called "The Young Turks." Current signed Keith Olbermann to be its top host in 2011 but his tenure lasted less than a year before it ended in bad blood on both sides.

Current has largely been outflanked by MSNBC in its effort be a liberal alternative to the leading cable news network, Fox News Channel.

Current hired former CNN Washington bureau chief David Bohrman in 2011 to be its president. Bohrman pushed the network to innovate technologically, with election night coverage that emphasized a conversation over social media.

Current TV, founded in 2005 by former vice president Gore and Joel Hyatt, is expected to post $114 million in revenue in 2013, according to research firm SNL Kagan. The firm pegged the network's cash flow at nearly $24 million a year.
