GOP Congressman Caught Cheating On His Wife!

My personal business is none of your business! - Congressman Vance McAllister (R-LA). The Republican lawmaker rather be in the business of the president and those who aren't as privileged as he is.

The junk food media is abuzz about the controversy with Tea Party Republican lawmaker Vance McAllister of Louisiana. The staunchly conservative lawmaker is caught fondling and kissing on a woman that's not his wife.

Earlier this year, the lawmaker brought a member of the Duck Dynasty clan to the State of The Union Address to insult the LGBT community and President Barack Obama.

McAllister represents the Louisiana's 5th congressional district. A resident of Swartz in Ouachita Parish in northeastern Louisiana, McAllister has a background in business and the military. He won a special runoff election held on November 16, 2013, for the seat vacated by fellow Republican Rodney Alexander. He defeated State Senator Neil Riser of Columbia in Caldwell Parish, who was the choice of much of the state's Republican leadership.

According to the office of Louisiana Secretary of State Tom Schedler in Baton Rouge, McAllister defeated Riser, 54,449 (59.7 percent) to 36,837 (40.3 percent), with all 981 precincts reporting.

On April 7, 2014, The Ouachita Citizen newspaper of West Monroe, published by Sam Hanna, Jr., posted online a copy of a surveillance video from an anonymous source which shows McAllister kissing a woman in his Monroe district office.

According to the news source, the video was recorded in McAllister's Monroe congressional office on December 23, 2013, five weeks after his election to Congress. McAllister is shown turning off the lights and then kissing a woman for approximately thirty seconds.

The newspaper identified the woman as Melissa Anne Hixon Peacock (born c. 1981), his district scheduler from Sterlington, previously a cosmetologist. Peacock contributed $5,200 to McAllister's campaign in 2013.

Her husband is Heath Peacock (born c. 1980), who also contributed $5,200 to McAllister's campaign.

Heath Peacock was reared three miles from McAllister in West Carroll Parish and both graduated from Forest High School but six years apart. He worked with McAllister for more than sixteen years at Mustang Engineering.

"There’s no doubt I've fallen short and I'm asking for forgiveness. I’m asking for forgiveness from God, my wife, my kids, my staff, and my constituents who elected me to serve." McAllister said in a statement.

Chief of staff Adam Terry said that Peacock was removed from the payroll during the past twenty-four hours. Former opponent Neil Riser said, "I think right now we should be mindful and sensitive to the families who are involved.”

McAllister and his wife, Kelly were married in 1997 and they raised five children.

McAllister is a member of the North Monroe Baptist Church. He describes his decision to run for Congress as a "prayerful one. Many people make light of my spiritual faith, but that is okay with me.

I know the blessing that I have received from the good Lord and the inner peace that comes from being a believer. ... I knew there were a number of qualified people in the district to be congressman, but also I realized that I had the time and the financial capability ... that maybe [the others] didn't."

Seems like the freshman Congressman should have watched how Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) handles a "scandal". This is a textbook case of being caught on camera in the wrong place.

His own staffer betrayed him.

McAllister betrayed his wife, his longtime friend (the husband of the woman he was kissing) and his children.

But since he's a Republican (i.e. Mark Sanford), this is nothing. According to Republicans, we need to focus on Bill Clinton cheating! Because in their minds, he's biggest cheater of them all.

After all he's not running for president anymore. His wife could be!

The NY Post Calling Jay And Bey Racist!

If Jay-Z and Beyonce were racist, why would they allow two White women sit near them at the Barclay's court side?

A few years ago, the News Corp tabloid had a writer attack the media mogul's decision to become part owner of the NBA Nets. That move would carry the NBA team from New Jersey to Brooklyn.

The writer called the media mogul's decision to have a NBA team, a recipe for disaster.

He even referred the team to the New York NIGGERS.

This writer Phil Mushnick would say that:

As long as the Nets are allowing Jay-Z to call their marketing shots — what a shock that he chose black and white as the new team colors to stress, as the Nets explained, their new “urban” home — why not have him apply the full Jay-Z treatment?

Why the Brooklyn Nets when they can be the New York N------s? The cheerleaders could be the Brooklyn B----hes or Hoes. Team logo? A 9 mm with hollow-tip shell casings strewn beneath. Wanna be Jay-Z hip? Then go all the way!

Yeah many felt that the Post went too far in their criticism.

Now Barack and Michelle Obama are good friends with the Carters.

Trash talker Loudmouth Bill Cunningham hosts a syndicated program in New York on many CW affiliates. He also takes time to visit his hometown of Cincinnati to do his radio program in the afternoons and Sunday nights.

Mr. and Mrs. Shawn Carter are professionally known as Jay-Z and Beyonce.

Now the racist right (ahem) are fired up over a pendent that the media mogul wore while he and his wife were at the Brooklyn Nets game.

I happen to click on That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall's website and it lead me to the New York Post article.

In this tabloid piece, the pendent represents the Five Percenters.

In a big headline:

Jay-Z’s bling from ‘whites are devils’ group

By Gary Buiso

April 6, 2014 | 6:55am

Black people are the fathers and mothers of civilization, white men are the devil, the Christian god is nothing more than a ghost and only a small percentage of people understand the world.

These are just some of the ­beliefs behind the bling — the gaudy Five Percent Nation ­medallions worn by Jay-Z and Carmelo Anthony.

Last week, all eyes at the Barclays Center weren’t on Jay-Z’s better half, Beyoncé — but on the coaster-size golden pendant swinging from the rapper’s neck as the couple sat courtside. Asked once if the group’s symbol — an eight-pointed star with the number 7 in the middle — held any meaning for him, the rapper shrugged, “A little bit.”

So what exactly do Five Percenters believe?

“The rationale is that the black man is God and created the universe, and is physically stronger and intellectually stronger and more righteous naturally,” says Michael Muhammad Knight, an author of two books on the radical group.

“Whiteness is weak and wicked and inferior — basically just an errant child who needs to be corrected.”

The group was founded in 1964 in Harlem by Clarence Smith, who later changed his name to Allah, a former student of Malcolm X who disagreed with the Nation of Islam over the nature of God.

Smith rejected the notion of a supernatural deity and instead believed that all black men had God in them and that black women were “earths” who took on a complementary yet subordinate role to their gods.

The idea is empowering, Knight says.

This guy bitching again about Black entertainers.

“Anytime someone is saying you have to accept your conditions of oppression and slavery and pray to an unseen god — that kind of god is just being used to keep people down and to keep people from looking to themselves as a solution to their problems,” he notes. “If there is a problem, no one will fix it for you, except yourself.”

Five Percenters don’t consider themselves Muslim, but their name comes from the Nation of Islam’s belief that 5 percent of humanity are “poor righteous teachers” who exist to enlighten the masses about the truth of existence.

Members will sometimes refer to themselves as “scientists” to drive home the search for truth. And they face a tall task, because under their belief system, 10 percent of the world’s population controls the other 85 percent by spreading the belief in a “mystery God.”

To show followers the way, members must learn the Supreme Mathematics and Supreme Alphabet — powerful tools to decipher the meaning of the universe. In both, each letter and number represents a concept: for example, 1 is knowledge, 2 is wisdom, while A is Allah and B is be, or born. The number 7 on Jay-Z’s pendant stands for God.

The prince of race-baiting.

Caucasians, meanwhile, don’t enjoy an exalted status in the narrative of the Five Percenters.

“The first lesson I learned from the Five Percent was simple: F–k white people. Seriously. White people are devils,” Knight, 36, who is white and converted to ­Islam as a teenager, once wrote.

He insisted the movement has been welcoming and that he views the controversial sentiment as a statement about power rather than biology.

“For me, it is about who is marked as privileged in the power relations of this society,” he says.

Some followers take exception to those who transform their flag into a fashion accessory.

“Jay-Z is not an active member — no one has vouched for him” Saladin Allah, a representative of the group’s upstate region, told The Post. “It was always understood that you don’t wear the ­regalia if you don’t totally subscribe to the life.”

Now of course the racist right starts on Sunday nights with Loudmouth Bill Cunningham. He was the first conservative agitator to mention this. Then of course, I am guessing King Hippo was the next one. I happened to sleep through his show.

Lastly, the most annoying of them all. That Guy Who Helped Obama Win (aka That Punk Ass Sean Hannity) is devoting a whole segment of his program to this.

Wow, if I didn't know better, I think these guys are pissed!

Yeah, Barack Obama won reelection on the power of hip-hop. Jay-Z is a product of this. He openly endorsed the president for reelection and encouraged his stans to vote.

The racist right have been really bitter about this. So they've devoted their time trashing him and Beyonce at every whim.

Again, why should we give the racist right any credence?

Can't Help The Dumb...

"Never again," says the perennial loser Mitt Romney about his potential third run for president.

If that foolish perennial loser Mitt Romney runs again for president, then I can assure you that the Republican Party is doomed.

Although there's no way that loser will run again for the embarrassment, the possibility could occur given that the Republicans have an even weaker field of contenders.

Yes, they're even a worse crop of candidates running for the Republican nomination. There's nothing great or fantastic about the current speculators.

Then of course, you have their toy, Dr. Benjamin Carson. There's a radio ad telling you to runbenrun

You would think if the possibility of running the flipper back in a race would be a joke.

According to The Raw Story, our friends over at Loserville would consider him a potential candidate for president.

After a few set appearances post election, the people are assuming again that the former nominee would throw his hat in the ring again.

Great.

I am guessing the Democrats are trembling in their boots!

Only in America.

You're Of The People, Priest!

Holier than thou.... Catholic archbishop was told to give up his lavish mansion.

Living lavish on the religion. The biggest money game is the American biblical.

Millions of tax free dollars goes to televangelists and Catholic priest. Without a paper trail, some of your religious leaders will make millions off you and your givings to GOD.

There was a controversy in Atlanta over the week. The Associated Press reports that Roman Catholic Archbishop Wilton Gregory announced the decision following a closed-door meeting with members of several church councils at his headquarters north of Atlanta. He will move out of the Tudor-style residence in early May. "I have decided to sell the Habersham property and invest the proceeds from that sale into the needs of the Catholic community," Gregory told the AP after the meeting.

The mansion was made possible by a multimillion dollar gift to the archdiocese. Laura Mullins, one of several Catholics who asked Gregory to sell, praised the archbishop for making a quick decision and ending the controversy. "He is the person we follow locally," she said. "He sets the example for all of us to follow. If he is choosing to use a gift so personally, what does that tell the people sitting in the pews?"

Southern hospitality.

Gregory has issued an apology after reports that he'd built himself a $2.2 million mansion sparked outrage in the diocese. Gregory bought the mansion with a $15 million posthumous gift from Gone With the Wind heir Joseph Mitchell, who wanted the money spent on "general religious and charitable purposes,"

Gregory explains that he was generously selling his old home to a nearby cathedral, and building himself a "comparable" residence.

"While my advisors and I were able to justify this project fiscally, logistically and practically, I personally failed to project the cost in terms of my own integrity and pastoral credibility," Gregory writes, adding that Pope Francis has "set the bar" higher for priestly humility. He promises to consult with other church officials and sell the residence if they advise him to.

Boneheaded "Racist" Prank Lands Four In The Lockup!

Only in America, you would have four grown adults do something so stupid. These four may end up int the iron college for a least 15 years for their boneheaded prank. And all over what? 

I don't know but Philadelphia police will do something about it.

WPIX reports that police say four people forcibly tattooed their roommate with racial slurs and obscene images while holding him hostage for three days in a Philadelphia basement.

Corry Campbell, 20, Sandra Ng, 19, Jennifer Pratt, 29, and David Thomas, 27, are charged with aggravated assault, reckless endangerment, kidnapping and related counts.

Police said the 52-year-old victim called 911 on Tuesday and told investigators he was held against his will in the basement of a home in the Mayfair neighborhood where he lived with the four suspects. The man said he was beaten and tattooed by three of them.

Police said the victim’s lower arms were covered with nearly a dozen offensive tattoos. Investigators say his hands were badly bruised and swollen and his eyes, legs, ribs and torso were also bruised.

GOP Senate Candidate Uses "OBAMA" In Campaign Ad!

The establishment's choice for the open U.S. Senate seat will use everything to win. He tries to lure voters with a fake Obama voice message.

Congressman Jack Kingston (R-GA) is running for the open seat in the state. Senator Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) is finally realizing that there's no hope for those in Washington, so he decides to take his peaches back to the old Georgia home.

In an attempt to rile up those "old White folk" down in the deep south, Kingston would get an Obama impersonator in this ad warning him to back off Obamacare and to stay out the race.

Basically this ad is showing his establishment friends that he's the only one with the balls to directly insult the president in his face.

If you're confused about the ad, don't worry, it's just another boneheaded Republican attempting to undermine President Barack Obama's signature law. A law that Kingston along with his opponents Congressman Paul Braun (R-GA) and Congressman Phil Gingrey (R-GA) have repealed over 50 times.

These inept Congressmen must obtain over 50% of the vote in order to be the nominee.

The Democrats hope to retake a seat that was once held by Max Cleland, a double amputee Vietnam War veteran who lost to Chambliss in the 2002 election. Chambliss played dirty bull against Cleland.

To make it worse, Cleland's former colleague Zell Miller (one of the last element of the Dixiecrats) endorses Chambliss. And its likely Miller will endorse a Republican in the election.

Kingston's ad is ridiculous.

Could it inspire a few of them Southern White folk votes?

April Showers!

Good news for the job market is still not enough for the critics of President Barack Obama.

Unemployment numbers are out once again showing that the month of March despite the horrible Winter.

We got an added net jobs. A fruitful amount of jobs were announced today leading to the claim that its back to pre-recession levels.

Over 192,000 jobs were added in the month of March leading to the job rate idling at 6.7%.

The Labor Department says employers added 192,000 jobs, slightly below February's total of 197,000. Employers also added a combined 37,000 more jobs in February and January than previously estimated.

The unemployment rate was unchanged at 6.7 percent. But a half-million Americans started looking for work last month, and most of them found jobs. The increase in job-seekers is a sign that they are more optimistic about their prospects.

March's job gain nearly matches last year's average monthly total, suggesting that the job market has mostly recovered from the previous months' severe winter weather.

The Klan Flocks To Harrison Arkansas!

Harrison is a friendly town. 

Americans Against The Tea Party (AATTP) is becoming my favorite website besides The Hinterland Post, Addicting Info and Raw Story for stuff involving the racist right.

They got this article on a city in Arkansas that's a majority White city. The KLAN is looking forward to adding new residents to the town. I wonder if Craig Cobb got the word.

The sign that greets visitors of Harrison.

Okay, Harrison, Arkansas is about 2 1/2 hours away from Little Rock. The city's racial makeup of the city was 96.2% White, 0.3% Black or African American, 0.6% American Indian and Alaska Native, 0.7% Asian, 0.0% Pacific Islander, and 1.6% from two or more races. 2.2% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

There's little to no Black or African American residents in the city.

The racist right would love it.

Why don't Congressman Tom Cotton (R-AK) open two campaign offices there?

Hell get Senator Mark Pryor (D-AK) to march in their parades as their "Grand Pumba"?

Harrison is trying to disspell the notion of being the town that hates Blacks. They want to rid themselves of a resident and his followers.

Thomas Robb, national director of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, maintains his headquarters near Harrison in the outlying town of Zinc and uses a Harrison mailing address for the organization.

White extremist Thomas Robb lives outside of Harrison. He's determined to keep the town White and Right.

Combined with the history of the 1905 and 1909 banishment of African-Americans, this incidental connection to the KKK has given the town a negative image which it has taken active steps to combat in recent years.

 In 2013, a billboard appeared above a local sign company on the eastern edge of Harrison that read: "Anti-Racist is a Code Word for Anti-White." In response, a local radio station removed its nearby billboard, and students from North Arkansas College passed out fliers calling for a protest of the sign.

An official statement read: "the mayor’s office considers the content inflammatory, distasteful and not in line with the truth on how Harrison is a city of welcoming and tolerant citizens."

David Letterman Retires!

Millions of laughs and hundreds of guests. David Letterman says that the time has come for retirement. 

The Late Show with David Letterman is the stable of CBS late nights. And it will soon have a vacancy in the coming year. The host is preparing for retirement.

This was announced on the current taping of the show.

David Letterman 67, started the Late Show in 1993 after a bitter fallout with NBC when he was passed off for Jay Leno on The Tonight Show. They had a competitive and yet bitter rivalry for the most part.

Leno was forced out The Tonight Show this year for Jimmy Fallon. Seth Meyers took the mantle of Late Night. Letterman continues to be reigning king of late night.

Jimmy Kimmel regarded Letterman was a mentor and friend. He took to Twitter wish the comedian well.

David @Letterman is the best there is and ever was.
— Jimmy Kimmel (@jimmykimmel) April 3, 2014

Letterman announced the news during a taping of Thursday's episode of "Late Show." He called CBS president Leslie Moonves before the program, "And I said ‘Leslie, it’s been great, you’ve been great, and the network has been great, but I’m retiring.'"

The late night host explained that "Moonves, he and I have had a relationship for years and years and years, and we have had this conversation in the past, and we agreed that we would work together on this circumstance and the timing of this circumstance."

"I just want to reiterate my thanks for the support from the network, all of the people who have worked here, all of the people in the theater, all the people on the staff, everybody at home, thank you very much," Letterman said, then joked, "What this means now, is that Paul and I can be married ... we don’t have the timetable for this precisely down – I think it will be at least a year or so, but sometime in the not too distant future, 2015 for the love of God, in fact, Paul and I will be wrapping things up."

By the time Letterman retires, he will have hosted CBS' "Late Show With David Letterman" for 22 years.

He previously hosted NBC's "Late Night" for 11 years.

Paul Shaffer.

Moonves said in a statement that "we knew this day was getting closer" when Letterman went with a one-year extension for his contract, "but that doesn’t make the moment any less poignant for us."

"For 21 years, David Letterman has graced our Network’s air in late night with wit, gravitas and brilliance unique in the history of our medium," Moonves stated. "During that time, Dave has given television audiences thousands of hours of comedic entertainment, the sharpest interviews in late night, and brilliant moments of candor and perspective around national events. He’s also managed to keep many celebrities, politicians and executives on their toes – including me."

"There is only one David Letterman," Moonves added. "His greatness will always be remembered here, and he will certainly sit among the pantheon of this business."

Conservatives Hate Muslims!

American conservatives have another reactionary response to an event.

As developments unfold to how Spc Ivan Lopez went on his rampage at Fort Hood, the president and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel have issued condolences and the lowering of American flags.

As the conservatives mount another assault against people of color and the president, we here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those who were lost in this horrible tragedy.

Here's a dose of bigotry courtesy of Pat Dollard of Breitfart News.

If there is even one more act of Muslim terrorism, it is then time for Americans to start slaughtering Muslims in the streets, all of them.
— Patrick Dollard (@PatDollard) April 2, 2014

The asshole quickly goes to Twitter to post his reactionary outrage towards today shooting at Ft. Hood in Texas.

Also TruthRevolt, a spin off site created by former Breitfart editor Ben Shapiro makes the case to attack the president for heading to Chicago for a fundraiser instead of heading back to the White House.

This event occurred the moment the president got into Chicago. Yet our mindless peons in the racist right can't stomach him in the White House. No amount of good will satisfy these Americans.

It's usually created by two of the country's most notorious agitators. Loserville and That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall, the racist right's perfect combination.

That Guy Who Throws Shit To The Wall is already trying to make the racist right have a meltdown against the Muslim community.

Again, extremists don't always have long beards, sandals and turbans. These people are professionally trained to blend in with the Western world.

The racist right takes to the social networks and vent off about this....

So the Ft Hood Shooter has been identified as a Mexican, Muslim, transgendered, jihadist, officials are trying to find his motivation.

Shooting At Fort Hood!

Again a shooting at Fort Hood has the nation mourning.

Nearly five years ago, American soldiers were attacked by their own.

Today, I think it may have happened again! We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those who were lost in this horrible tragedy. The Associated Press reports that this shooting has multiple injuries and the possibility of death.

One person was killed and 14 injured in a shooting Wednesday at Fort Hood, and officials at the base said the shooter is believed to be dead.

The details about the number of people hurt came from two U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the information by name.

Fort Hood said in a statement posted online that its Directorate of Emergency Services had an initial report that the shooter was dead, but that the report was unconfirmed. Additional details were not immediately available.

A U.S. law enforcement official said reports circulating within the Justice Department indicate the shooter died of what appears to be a self-inflicted wound. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is still ongoing.

The Army said on its official Twitter feed that the Texas Army post was still on lockdown. Injured people were being treated at the post's Carl R. Darnall Medical Center and other local hospitals.

Nidal Hasan was a decorated soldier. He snapped and ended up killing 13 of his fellow members. He was inspired to kill by American born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki who became a recruiter for extremism. al-Awlaki was killed in 2011 and Hasan was sentenced to the gas house.

President Barack Obama said he was following the situation closely and that the government will get to the bottom of what happened.

He said Wednesday's incident brought back painful memories of a 2009 mass shooting at the Texas Army post. Thirteen people were killed and more than 30 wounded in what was the deadliest attack on a domestic military installation in history.

"We're heartbroken that something like this might've happened again," Obama said at a restaurant in Chicago where he held a fundraiser.

"The folks there have sacrificed so much on behalf of our freedom. Many of the people there have been on multiple tours to Iraq and Afghanistan," Obama said. "They serve with valor, they serve with distinction and when they're at their home base, they need to feel safe. We don't yet know what happened tonight, but obviously that sense of safety has been broken once again."

The November 2009 attack happened inside a crowded building where soldiers were waiting to get vaccines and routine paperwork after recently returning from deployments or while preparing to go to Afghanistan and Iraq.

Army psychiatrist Nidal Hasan was convicted and sentenced to death last year in that mass shooting.

According to testimony during Hasan's trial last August, Hasan walked inside carrying two weapons and several loaded magazines, shouted "Allahu Akbar!" - Arabic for "God is great!" - and opened fire with a handgun.

Witnesses said he targeted soldiers as he walked through the building, leaving pools of blood, spent casings and dying soldiers on the floor. Photos of the scene were shown to the 13 officers on the military jury.

Developments are rapid.

The rampage ended when Hasan was shot in the back by Fort Hood police officers outside the building, which left him paralyzed from the waist down. Hasan is now on death row at the military prison at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.

After that shooting, the military tightened security at bases nationwide. Those measures included issuing security personnel long-barreled weapons, adding an insider-attack scenario to their training, and strengthening ties to local law enforcement, according to Peter Daly, a vice admiral who retired from the Navy in 2011. The military also joined an FBI intelligence-sharing program aimed at identifying terror threats.

In September, a former Navy man opened fire at the Washington Navy Yard, leaving at least 13 people dead, including the gunman. After that shooting, Hagel ordered the Pentagon to review security at all U.S. defense installations worldwide and examine the granting of security clearances that allow access to them.
