Obama: If [Weeper] Boehner Spent More Time Working Than Crying Maybe We Could Get Things Done!

If the president wanted to be really disrespectful to Boehner, he would have told the junk food media that the Weeper needs to stop spending taxpayer money on those awful tans. He's starting to look Blacker than Obama.

President Barack Obama scoffed at the notion of the most inept House Speaker's threat of a lawsuit over the executive decisions being made.

The president knocked this lawsuit as a "stunt" to impress the insurgency and their goal is to BLACK everything he does!

Oops, I meant block!

In a much televised interview with ABC News host George Stephanopoulos, the president states that Congress is a train wreck and he welcomes the Speaker and Republicans to compromise on some his policies.

President Barack Obama on Friday said he wasn't going to apologize for his use of executive power.

Boehner officially announced he would introduce legislation in the coming weeks that would authorize the House General Counsel to sue the Obama administration and "compel" the president to enforce existing law. Without citing the specific executive orders he found troubling, Boehner named health care, energy, foreign policy and education as areas where the president has "repeatedly run an end-around on the American people."

“You notice that he didn't specifically say what exactly he was objecting to,” Obama said in the interview. “I'm not going to apologize for trying to do something while they're doing nothing."

Often stymied by a recalcitrant Congress, Obama declared 2014 a "year of action" and issued executive orders on immigration, the federal minimum wage and federal pay discrimination. His Environmental Protection Agency further plans to unveil unprecedented regulations to curb greenhouse gas emissions from coal-fired power plants. But the moves have infuriated Republicans, who say the president is unlawfully bypassing Congress.

"We elected a president, Americans note; we didn’t elect a monarch or king," Boehner wrote in the memo.

Obama said he was forced to take action because Congress refused to do its job.

"What I've told Speaker Boehner directly is, if you're really concerned about me taking too many executive actions, why don't you try getting something done through Congress?" Obama said on ABC. "The majority of American people want to see immigration reform done. We had a bipartisan bill through the Senate. And you're going to squawk if I try to fix some parts of it administratively that are within my authority, while you are not doing anything?"

Congressman John Boehner (R-OH) is probably one of the worst leaders to hold the House of Representatives. As House Speaker, Boehner has been pretty tied up in a pretzel over how he handles business.

Washington, DC is in a gridlock. Republicans and their insurgency have been at odds with one another over how they could oppose the president.

Since he's gotten into office, the Republicans have been obstructive to his agenda.

When Boehner won another term as House Speaker, he told the Republican caucus that he is "done" with President Barack Obama. He couldn't trust him.

So now that the president and the Democrats go at it alone, these very same Republicans run to cameras on Breakfast Chats, GOP Sundays and every social network they can dig their claws in.

They hand those conservative agitators talking points and let them go to town on every proposal or even an ounce of bipartisanship from fellow Republicans. They trash the proposals or fellow Republicans for even having the decency to work with "that guy".

They don't understand that if the Democrats fall back into the minority, they'll become just as aggressive as the Republicans. Trust me: They will find ways to undermine a Republican president.

The choices of candidates are even weaker than before. They fear Hillary Clinton so much, they'll find everything to destroy her.

‘More Offensive Than the N-Word’- Update

Update:

‘More Offensive Than the N-Word’: Paula Deen’s Son Posts Photo of Him Kissing Employee ‘Forced’ to Dress Up Like Aunt Jemima | Issue Hawk


Do you see the similarities between Paula Deen's son photo and the blatantly racist 19th century cartoon, "Not Particular" depicting that very same scene except they were standing up instead of sitting?



Disgustingly Racist and Sexist!  Paula Deen's son ought to be ashamed of himself!

Here's more racism from the Deen family on Mail Online newspaper

More offensive than the N word': Paula Deen's son reignites racism row after posting photo of him kissing employee 'forced' to dress up in Aunt Jemima outfit

  • Jamie Deen has re-ignited the accusations of racism that surround the family a year on from the scandal which cost his mom her TV career
  • On Friday he posted a photo of him cuddling Ineata 'Jellyroll' Jones, an employee at the center of some of last year's racist accusations
  • Other employees claimed that Deen forced the woman to dress up in an Aunt Jemima-style outfit against her wishes
  • His questionable tweet comes amid a reports that his Food Network show has been dropped
  • Last week his mom launched The Paula Deen Network, a show to be made available to digital subscribers from September


Just as Paula Deen is attempting to rebuild her sullied reputation in the wake of last year’s N-word scandal, son Jamie has re-ignited the accusations of racism that surround the family.
Amid reports that the Food Network has cancelled his own cooking show, Jamie posted a photo on Twitter on Friday of him smooching with an older African-American woman.
The image was captioned ‘Don’t tell [my wife] Brooke. #jellyroll #sugar’.

The woman in the photo, Ineata ‘Jellyroll’ Jones, is an employee of Paula Deen who was at the center of some of last year’s racist accusations.
In 2013, The Columbus Dispatch claimed, ‘Deen used Jones for restaurant theater. At 11 a.m., when the doors opened at [her restaurant] Lady & Sons, she stood in front and rang an iron dinner bell.’


Ineata Jones was being made a "mammy" by the Deen family.  The blatant racism of the Deen family is beyond disgusting.

“Wow, did Paula Deen really call one of her workers JellyRoll?” LaVerne Mack (@shaigirl11) wrote on Twitter. “I find that more offensive than the N-word.”

Another woman wrote:


"I didn't know about the history of the term jellyroll but she clearly doesn't mind the nickname. Paula asked her to dress as Aunt Jemima and she said no, end of story. Sometimes people need to be educated on other cultures. Clearly Paula has a romantic view of certain periods of time in the south that was very painful for African Americans. The south is not the most tolerant place and it's steeped in tradition. Instead of vilifying, why not use these incidents to begin a conversation about some of the issues that exist with race."-  Charli at Radaronline.com.

I agree.

NAACP: Dayton Bus Driver Gotta Go!

The NAACP and local leaders want this "hero" bus driver fired.

The NAACP and members of the community want that lying bastard fired and prosecuted.

Unfortunately, Richard Biehl police chief for the city of Dayton was told that the county prosecutor wasn't going to do it. But the bus company that hired him is looking forward to put the brakes on his career.

Back in February, Ricky Wagoner claimed that he was working on his bus route for the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority. His bus broke down. He would exit his bus.

He claimed that a group of Black teens confronted him. They told the bus driver they were "polar bear" hunting and they happened to find him.

So what "these Black teens" did was shoot him and stab him. He wrestled the gun from "these Black teens" and fires back at them. He would enter the bus and finish his route.

 He claims that the bullets that travel hit his chest and it was deflected by a pocket size bible.

That turned out to be a damn lie.
WHIO-TV's Jessica Heffner confronts the bus driver. The bus driver tells her to get the "fuck" off his property.
Police said last week that Wagoner’s claim of being assaulted by the teens wasn't supported by the facts. He told authorities in February he suspected the assault was part of a gang initiation.

RTA representatives met with Wagoner Tuesday to begin the first step in the transit agency’s personnel process that could lead to Wagoner’s termination.

The meetings are the first steps in the hearing process in relation to the charges Mr. Wagoner faces at the RTA, according to Donaghy.

Wagoner’s legal representatives will get a chance to present evidence and introduce witnesses in his defense. “It’s a labor issue, not a legal proceeding,” Donaghy said.

Dayton’s City Prosecutor, Stephanie Cook, has declined to file charges based on the police investigation. She also has declined, through a city spokesman, to explain why no charges were filed.

  Case into shooting of RTA bus driver closed as ‘unfounded’ photo
The FBI, which investigated the incident as a possible hate crime against the white bus driver, has concluded that a crime of that type did not occur.

Wagoner repeatedly has declined comment. The attorney who represented him in the criminal investigation, Jeremiah Denslow said Tuesday, “From my understanding not only the Dayton police but the FBI has done a thorough investigation and a lengthy one. While they believe Mr. Wagoner was not truthful with them, I suspect the authorities didn’t feel they could prove it in a court of law.”

The investigation also has been reviewed by the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office. On Monday, a coalition of black civil rights groups including the NAACP asked County Prosecutor Mat Heck to consider charging Wagoner.

Office spokesman Greg Flannagan said Tuesday that the police investigation had the potential for misdemeanor charges, which would not be handled by the county prosecutor.

“Our office did have some discussions with the Dayton Police Department concerning this matter and we were assured any possible alleged charges would be misdemeanors. There would not be any felonies they could pursue.”

SCOTUS Rules Big!

Cameras aren't allowed in the Supreme Court. Recording devices are limited to audio. A courtroom sketcher will display the reactions of those in the courtroom. 

Two major decision came from the U.S. Supreme Court. They managed to not only deal a blow to law enforcement agencies but also start up companies that advocate advancements in the digital age.

First things first, have you ever posted anything incriminating on your phone?

Have you ever posted something that you know will get you in trouble?

Think about that young woman who posted on the social networks and on her phone. She was the one who robbed a bank. Hannah Sabata got 20 years in the iron college for that incident. Before the Court decision, the boys in blue would have checked her phone for incriminating evidence. No more.

The law must now get a warrant to look into a person's phone. Today the landmark decision given by the Court unanimously held that search and seizure of digital contents of a cell phone during an arrest is unconstitutional.

The case arose from a split among state and federal courts over the cell phone search incident to arrest (SITA) doctrine. The Fourth, Fifth, and Seventh Circuits have ruled that officers can search cell phones to arrest under various standards. That rule has been followed by the Supreme Courts of Georgia, Massachusetts, and California. Other courts in the First Circuit and the Supreme Courts of Florida and Ohio disagreed.

Now if you want to see your local news on the phone or through the computer. It may be even harder to stream the service if you're not licensed by the company. The Court ruled that online streaming service Aereo violated copyright when they were charging fees to stream local programs over their programming. This means that any start up business that wants to stream programming that comes off the free broadcast will be subject to infringement and shut down.

Broadcasters argued that Aereo was a threat both to their business model, by undermining the cable retransmission fees and the size of their audience.

Because the fees cable companies pay for broadcast content can comprise up to 10% of a broadcaster's revenue, broadcasters object to Aereo's re-distribution of this content without paying any fees. Broadcasters have also identified Aereo as part of the cord-cutting trend among television audiences that poses a threat to broadcasters' advertising revenue.

Aereo was sued for copyright infringement by a consortium of major broadcasters, including CBS Corporation's CBS, Comcast's NBC, Disney's ABC and 21st Century Fox's Fox.

The broadcasters argued that Aereo infringed their copyrighted material because Aereo's streams constituted public performances. They sought a preliminary injunction against the company. On July 11, Federal Judge Alison Nathan denied this injunction, citing as precedent the 2008 Cablevision case, which established the legality of cloud-based streaming and DVR services.

In response to the decision, Aereo Founder and CEO Chet Kanojia said “Today’s decision shows that when you are on the right side of the law, you can stand up, fight the Goliath and win.”

In a subsequent interview with CNET, Kanojia asserted, “With one step, we changed the entire TV industry. The television industry and its evolution are now starting towards the Internet and that was stopped until Aereo came along...And I think as consumers start migrating to the Internet, new programming and new content are going to come in.

The Court decided in favor of the broadcasters on June 25 in a 6-3 decision and remanded the case with Justices Scalia, Thomas and Alito dissenting. The Court's decision describes Aereo as not being "simply an equipment provider," with an "overwhelming likeness to cable companies" that "performs petitioners' works 'publicly.'" Further, the Court adds that its decision should not discourage the emergence or use of different kinds of technologies, a conclusion that will remain to be seen.

Research was obtained through the SCOTUS Blog and Wikipedia to conclude the summary of this decision.

These decisions are monumental. The Court's rulings will affect the digital age. The Roberts Court is pretty damn conservative. The swing is Anthony Kennedy and he's tolled the line toward libertarian. These decisions are pretty much setbacks to law enforcement and digital technology.

Thad Cochran Beats Insurgent!

I'll have this order to go. Thad Cochran, U.S. Senator from Mississippi beats the insurgent in a Republican primary run-off election. This race was one of the most closely watched. It would have determined the mood of U.S. Midterm voters.

Could you imagine staunchly conservative Senator Mississippi Republican Thad Cochran beats insurgent candidate Chris McDaniel?

I'll tell you the truth, he won on the power of Democratic voters who happened to be a lot darker than he is.

In a highly contested Republican primary run off the long-term senator Ted Cochran pulled off a victory that was deemed inevitable for the insurgent. A Southern White politico from the most reddest state in the United States will now face another Southern White politico who is just like him only with a Democratic label.

The insurgent rose to fame on the power of the conservative agitators who deemed Cochran too liberal and part of the establishment of Republicans.

The results of the country's most watched Republican races. It was one of the most controversial as well.
Republican Party primary runoff for Mississippi United States Senate election, 2014
PartyCandidateVotes%±%
RepublicanThad Cochran190,48150.9+1.9
RepublicanChris McDaniel183,60149.1-0.4
Total votes374,082100.00%
The Country Club, Blue Blooded Republicans according to the insurgency have been too willing to work with President Barack Obama and they wanted to stop it.

State Senator Chris McDaniel, a supporter of the insurgency was totally pissed. He thought that his bid for the Republican nomination was a wrap.

I thought it was a wrap after that old fool spoke about abusing animals. Cochran managed to pluck a few extra votes in an apparent open primary.

Under Mississippi rules, all voters, regardless of affiliation, are permitted to vote in the GOP primary, as long as they did not also cast a vote in the parallel Democratic primary. After the embarrassing defeat in the first round of voting, Cochran’s strategists calculated that their best option was to appeal to a broader base of voters, including those who do not usually support the party.

During the primary election, Senator Cochran and State Senator McDaniel received 49% and 49.5% of the vote respectively. Since no candidate received over 50%, there was be a runoff to determine the Republican nominee on June 24, 2014.

In the runoff campaign, Cochran tried to expand the electorate by encouraging independents and Democrats to vote in the runoff. After downplaying the various federal spending projects Mississippi received during his time in office, federal spending has become 40 percent of spending in the State of Mississippi

The Guardian reports that Cochran's influence may have sway Democratic-leaning black voters. Cochran could actually damage the prospects for Democrats in November. Travis Childers a former Democratic U.S. representative is a pro-life, pro-NRA, and anti-Obama candidate.

Say if McDaniel would have won, Childers has the profile that could conceivably win the conservative state in a race against McDaniel, whose extreme views could alienate the business community and more moderate voters.
The insurgent is pissed. He hasn't concede the race and vows to fight in court.
McDaniel has refused to concede to the race. He was very pissed at the outcome. He released a statement.

“We had a dream and the dream is still with us,” said McDaniel to an increasingly vocal crowd, telling them that the fight is not over. “Today the conservative movement took a backseat to liberal Democrats in Mississippi.”

The Politico reports that the crowd at the McDaniel event was equally fired up after the loss, capping off a bitter extended primary fight that pitted the insurgent against long-time establishment candidate Cochran.

Could you imagine, Senators Mitch McConnell (R-KY, Minority Leader), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Representatives James Lankford (R-OK, Republican senate nominee), Kevin McCarthy (R-CA, Majority Leader-elect) have survive an insurgency sweep?

Representative Eric Cantor (R-VA, Majority Leader) was the only high profile lawmaker defeated in a primary. The only high profile member who managed to be beaten by a weaker and probably more extremer candidate.

We Miss You Michael!


Michael Joseph Jackson passed away on June 25, 2009. The international media went bezerk!

Never since September 11, 2001, the American and international junk food media interrupt programming to discuss an event that no one expected would ever happen.

I can tell you that I was at my job that day when I got the word that Farrah Fawcett had just passed away that morning. Everyone was talking her death and the hit 70s action/drama Charlie's Angels.

But all of sudden, here comes the biggest thing to happen. Michael Jackson was being admitted to the hospital. At first I was hearing that his heart stopped and he's being rushed to the hospital. Somehow that gave me a feeling that he's on the verge of death.

Jackson was being admitted to Ronald Reagan UCLA Hospital. They did all they could to save him. But to no avail.  Michael Jackson died of acute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication after suffering cardiac arrest at his home on North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills neighborhood of Los Angeles.

On the eve of Jackson's 51st birthday, the Los Angeles County Coroner concluded that his death was a homicide.

The King of Pop
Shortly before his death, Jackson had reportedly been administered propofol and three anti-anxiety benzodiazepines, lorazepam, and midazolam, in his home.

His personal physician was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011 and had served a two-year prison sentence.

When Michael Jackson died, the junk food media went "LIVE". That meant that every news channel, every music channel and radio was interrupted to cover the death of a legend.

My question to those reading?

Where were you when Michael Jackson died?

And there’s so much…I’m sure you all know, this company offers so much opportunity for growth,” she said. “I want to be on in different cities, I want to be able to grow, I want to be able to have new challenges, see new things. I want to learn how this studio works…it was time. I feel like I’ve done what I could do in that company. I think my friendships remain. I never really subscribed to, cause somebody else works somewhere else we have to be enemies. Me and you [DJ Envy] always been cool.”

Martinez has a son with former Dru Hill singer and music producer Nokio.
