Tragedy At Wisconsin Sikh Temple!

                         
Another terrible tragedy that occurs in America. A Sikh Temple in near Milwaukee, Wisoncsin is mourning the lost of some of their members.

The is a developing story. This tragic act was done by some deranged individual and he managed to kill six before a shootout with cops lead to his own death. It's known that the individual was a White male dressed in black attire. The individual opened fire on the worshipers who attended a Sunday service.

This comes a few weeks after the tragic shooting in Aurora, Colorado at the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.

The police called the attack an act of domestic terrorism, but did not provide any details about the gunman or suggest a possible motive. Oak Creek Police Chief John Edwards did not say whether he specifically targeted the Sikh community.
                           
During a chaotic few hours after the first shots were fired, police in tactical gear and carrying assault rifles surrounded the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin with armored vehicles and ambulances. Witnesses struggled with unrealized fears that several shooters were holding women and children hostage inside.

                         
One of the first officers to respond to frantic 911 calls seeking help was shot several times as he tended to a wounded victim, and was in critical condition along with two other victims Sunday night, authorities said.

President Barack Obama, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Wisconsin governor Scott Walker have express grievance to those lost in this tragedy.

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

This is a continuing story and we will cover this as best as we can!

NBC Denies Calling Olympic Gymnast A Monkey!

Gabrielle Douglas (Gabby) is an Olympic Gold Medalist in gymnastics. She becomes the first African American woman to win a Gold in the sport.
Gabby Douglas is an Olympic Gold Gymnast at the tender age of 16 has become the nation's newest sweetheart. From West Des Moines, Iowa, the young African American gymnastic star has gotten endorsements and name recognition since her victory at the London 2012 Summer Olympics. Douglas is the first African-American and first woman of color in Olympic history to become the individual all-around champion, and the first American gymnast to win gold in both the individual all-around and team competitions at the same Olympics.

A controversy is brewing with NBC and their coverage of the Olympics. From the tape delays to editing out the five year tragedy of July 7, 2005, the network once again embroiled itself in another controversy.

Mediaite and Redding News Review have covered this controversy.

Someone pointed out that the network has ran a show called Animal Practice, a show about doctors, animals, and the hilarious hijinks they will surely get into on a weekly basis. One of the stars of the show is a little monkey, and as a tie-in for its Olympics coverage, NBC is airing a promo for the show featuring the monkey as a gymnast. Last night, the promo aired right after Bob Costas remarked that gymnast Gabby Douglas winning the gold medal would inspire young African-American girls, and NBC is now apologizing and denying any offense was meant in airing the monkey ad.


NBC was planning on having the gymnastics-themed ad airing right after the gymnastics-heavy segment, according to the Associated Press. The AP deals how the situation unfolded.

“Much of America has fallen in love with Gabby Douglas,” Costas said. “Also safe to say that there are some young African-American girls out there who tonight are saying to themselves, ‘Hey, I’d like to try that, too.’”

Then NBC switched to the commercial with the small, widely grinning monkey on the rings. Blacks in the past have been disparagingly referred to as monkeys to the point where it is considered a common slur.

“Gabby Douglas’ gold medal performance last night was an historic and inspiring achievement,” NBC Universal spokeswoman Liz Fischer said. “The spot promoting ‘Animal Practice,’ which has run three times previously, is one in a series with an Olympic theme, which have been scheduled for maximum exposure.

Certainly no offense was intended.”


Conservatives: Obama Hates Them Honkies!

Not to offend my readers, but this website called FightBigotry.com is another one of those SuperPacs that has Republicans seething their teeth into. In turn to make a case against the president, this website claim the first African American president supports Black racism against White people.

Now when was there ever a time that Barack Obama, the President of the United States ever saying anything that offends White people?

In the mind of the Republican Party and its allies in the conservative media, everyday!

After all he attended Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years. His Justice Department let the New Black Panthers get a pass. Henry  "Skip" Gates should acknowledge his tenure and the president shouldn't say the cops "acted stupidly" when arresting him. His USDA worker Shirley Sherrod said some racist things about these White farmers and the president won't admit his Attorney General Eric Holder is secretly plotting a vast voter fraud debacle in the election to hurt Republican Mitt Romney's chances!

Still rehashing 2008 U.S. Presidential Elections, I see! The same old stuff that eventually turned off the independent voters who heavily leaned Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) and swung directly to then senator Barack Obama.
Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh agitate controversial issues such as the president's race, his former allies like Jeremiah Wright and relentless talk about The New Black Panthers, a fringe Black nationalist group that promotes hate and division among the races. They dog whistle white voters with rhetoric that comes off as extremist.

Alan Keyes tried it. He failed. Hillary Clinton tried it. She failed. John McCain tried it. He failed. Mitt Romney is already falling into the trap and he's going to fail as well.

What I'm saying is simple. The more you attack President Barack Obama personally, the more compassion he'll get from voters! They're already upset about the ways of the economy and Congress stalling on key issues for political gamesmanship. President Barack Obama is a likable person. Maybe to conservatives, he's the Kenyan, Marxist, communist, racist, Islamic dictator sent directly from the gates of hell to destroy the very livelihood of the United States!

Anyways, you look at all the doom sayers from talk radio, Fox News and the internet. Either they're too dumb to understand or just plain ignorant and not willing to admit things are better than they were under President George W. Bush.

He inherited a mess. He's tried on fixing the mess with great opposition from Republicans and even Democrats from conservative states. They're sitting back waiting on him to fuck up so they get back into power.

The conservatives think that rehashing issues around his race is going to make White voters more pessimistic about him. They want to chip away that last 40% of likely White voters for President Barack Obama.

In my last post, I've said that when Blacks become the predominant majority of the United States population, then you can at least admit they're racist. I mean there are people of color who are racist towards other races than their own.

But when's the last time you've seen a White person pulled over in a neighborhood for having a license plate light? I mean if he/she was with a Black person, it's likely the police officer is going to profile that vehicle and do a random pull over to see if the person has drug paraphernalia in possession. But a White person by themselves is less likely to be pulled over.

When White people are considered natural born criminals, then you can say Blacks are racist.

When interracial marriage is not looked upon as a failure of liberalism and parenting. Then you can say Black are racist.

When the economic gap between earnings improve between Whites and Blacks, then you can say Blacks are racist.

I won't go into detail about this website! All I can tell you that it's just a hodge podge of misinformation and outright smears against the president and his allies.

[If] I Could Of Shot Another N****r!

Walton Henry Butler charged with hate crime
Florida man accused of shooting an individual and hoped he could of killed more "niggers!"

The Redding News Review and Raw Story contributes to this story. This controversy expands the notion that white conservative males are becoming more unhinged and this example is the growing tension. Extremism is on the rise and with the first Black president, the conservative White male will continue to hope the day will come when either President Barack Obama is defeated in the 2012 U.S. Presidential Election or some untimely event happens to him and his family. Conservatives rooting online for a tragedy. You probably have a family member, co-worker, friend or complete stranger hoping for this to happen.

Florida man charged with with a hate crime after he felt inconvenienced by his arrest because he had “only shot a n*gger.”

Walton Henry Butler, 59, was arrested by Gulf County Sheriff’s deputies on Monday night for shooting 32-year-old Everett Gant, who is black, in the head with a .22 caliber rifle.

According to a charging affidavit obtained by The Star, Butler had referred to Pamela Rogers’ child and other children at his apartment complex with racial slurs.

Gant was shot between the eyes when he went to Butler’s apartment to confront him over the remarks, the documents said. Butler allegedly closed his sliding glass door and left Gant bleeding on ground outside.

The suspect contacted 911 and had finished his dinner before Gulf County Sheriff Joe Nugent arrived.

Nugent recalled that Butler appeared “inconvenienced” by the arrest, saying that “he had only shot a n*gger.”

“He was brought to the investigation unit where he was interviewed and basically admitted to shooting the victim and said he shot a, used a racial slur, and said that is what he shot and acted like it was not like a big deal or anything to him,” Nugent told WJHG.

Butler was charged with attempted murder with a hate crime enhancement. He was being held in the Gulf County Jail after an appearance in court on Tuesday morning.

Gant was in stable condition at Bay Medical Center and is expected to survive.


Another Round?

                         
President Obama plays golf and his political foes are whining about it! The president played more rounds than George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. The reason why they're complaining is because they believe he should be working every day instead of taking time to relax? The Republicans and their conservative allies are using political dog whistle to rile up white voters again! 
You know what?

PURE NIGGERIZATION!

I am getting really tired of hearing conservatives whine their pathetic asses off about the president playing golf. It's almost like they saying in dog whistle:

"That NIGGER doesn't deserve the right to play golf or have some time to relax! We the American people put that NIGGER in the White House! Why can't that NIGGER ever do anything? He fucked up the economy! And while he's destroying the Constitution, he and his 'fat' wife Moochelle are taking too many vacations and eating good while real 'patriots' are struggling!"

This is what White conservatives are thinking?

The president doesn't get a day off! Even though today is his birthday, his political foes aren't concerned about that! They're concerned about how many rounds of golf or vacations he takes. Nothing can satisfy the Republicans and their conservative allies.


Instead of worrying about how far they'll go to piss off the entire country, they'll worry their asses off about the president's time to relax!

Do you not understand the President of the United States is probably the most stressful job out there?

Hell you people in the conservative movement should check the script and learn that every freaking modern day president played golf.

The reason why this and that damn teleprompter stuff comes into the conservative media is the fact they're trying to paint the president as aloof, inconsistent and out of touch.

See when then President George W. Bush made the statement that he's given up on golf while the troops are overseas, the progressive pounced on the comments. They've made the case that Bush lied about giving up on golf. Even out of office, Bush was seen with conservative agitator Brian Kilmeade of Fox News playing a round of golf.

According to ABC News, like 15 of the 18 presidents since Theodore Roosevelt, Obama has used golf as a way to unwind outdoors, but away from the prying eyes of press and onlookers. And despite the fact that he had never golfed before taking office, his love of the game is well known.

On warm-weather weekends he frequently visits two courses in the Washington area, Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland and Fort Belvoir in Virginia. Typically close friends or junior aides join him as partners, as was the case today when he brought Marty Nesbitt, a chum and neighbor from this city.

Matching predecessors, he is also known to bring business to the green on occasion. Among others, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, former President Bill Clinton, and House Speaker John Boehner have all teed off with Obama at some point.

Republicans have attempted to target the president’s hobby as a sign of taking too much time off in an era of economic trouble for the country. In April, Mitt Romney, who does not play the game, told a conservative radio host it displayed a poor work ethic.

“I scratch my head at the capacity of the president to take four hours off on such a regular basis to go golfing,” he said. “I would think you could kind of suck it up for four years, particularly when the American people are out of work.”

Last year conservative media outlets like The Drudge Report and Fox Nation made a racially themed article saying the president, retired basketball player Charles Barkley, hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, comedian Chris Rock and legendary singer Stevie Wonder were having a good ole' "Hip-Hop BBQ"!

Golf is primarily for White males who vote Republican. White males are the most pessimistic voters! They are more concerned with issues such as the president playing golf or eating a freaking hot dog with Dijon mustard.

The biggest success for golf is Tiger Woods. And yet, conservatives can't stand him since he admitted he had numerous affairs with white women!

Blunder!


                     
The July jobs report is out. And right off the bat, the political analysis of this is not good. The unemployment rate is now at 8.3%. The country added 169,000 jobs in the previous month. Not bad, not good either. There were a high claim of unemployment applications during that month and many Americans are still searching or giving up on the job market.

Republicans can rejoice. The talking point reverts back to the economy and jobs.

Mitt Romney had a horrible month. Overseas was a huge fumble especially in the United Kingdom and Middle East. Over in the United States the talk of tax returns and hidden millions in foreign nations is really starting to make Americans question his judgement.

President Barack Obama will celebrate his birthday this weekend. His job disapproval will match his age of 51. According to the Gallup Poll, the president's job approval is 45% - 48%. It will tick up in the coming days due to the economy, the sharp rise in fuel prices and of course his actions here and abroad.

Congress has really "done nothing". The Republican controlled House of Representatives has voted down the Democrats plan to bring tax cuts to the middle class. The Republicans argue that if you can't give the millionaires the tax breaks, we're not going to support this law. The U.S. Senate managed to pass it with a slim majority. How come the House is stalling on progress?

President Barack Obama, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada) are looked upon as a bunch of hyperpartisans who are willing to screw up the country for political gamesmanship.
From the right: House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-California).

Congress Republicans have move further to the right on issues. The moderate Republicans are exiting faster than the moderate Democrats. They're fed up with the conservative wing of the party stalling progress.

Cracks in the stalemate. Some Republicans are tearing up the "Tax Pledge" by conservative activist Grover Norquist. The Republicans are slowly warming up to the notion of abandoning tax breaks to the high end earners.

This jobs report is political football for the cable news and talk radio circuit. Of course, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck will say the usual "end of days" nonsense that gives Republicans assurance they'll prevail in the 2012 U.S. Elections.

This jobs report will allow Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow and Alan Colmes to defend the president by saying that "see there's jobs" and the usual upbeat nonsense that gives Democrats hope that they'll prevail in the elections as well.

The jobs report makes a point to how our economy succeeds or fails.

The Republicans believe that the country is going down a dangerous path to economic failure because of the president's policies and they want to fix the problems. They want to pass domestic austerity cuts for lower class citizens, create bigger defense budgets for the military, roll back regulations for companies that pollute our nation, repeal legislation that protects unions, civil groups and minorities.

The Democrats believe that the country is slowly rebounding. They claim that the dangerous path the Republicans are taking is basically waiting to the last minute to get things done. They want to pass regulations on corporations that ship funds overseas while laying off employees, establish a safety net for struggling families, keep firearms out of the hands of terrorists and the mentally insane, and give rights to civil groups such as allowing LGBT to marry and undocumented workers get an opportunity to become citizens.

The government isn't going to pass legislation to keep the post office running until they get back after their six week vacation. When they go home to their respectable districts or states, your Representative or Senator will have a great time enjoying their vacations while you work harder. While they enjoy a round of golf, boating or an adulterous affair, you're trying to keep the lights on in your home, food in your refrigerator, and fuel in your vehicle.


The Republicans are stalling progress to defeat President Barack Obama. The Democrats can't let go of issues that are deem too controversial. The gridlock is still here and of course we the American people are fed up.

How can you get anything done if you have a bunch of partisans running the Congress or the White House?

I support the president on most issues, but if President Barack Obama has to go negative in order to secure his second term, then it defeats his "hope and change" mantra that he's been rallying his base on!

Mitt Romney is a perennial candidate that will say or do anything to escape the controversy that he puts his big mouth in. He's not the Republican Party's favorite son, but you better believe they are willing to take a moderate Republican over Barack Obama any day!

Mia Love: GOP Utah Mayor Runs For Congress!

Saratoga Springs, Utah mayor Mia Love is running for Congress. If elected, she would be the first Black female Republican elected to Congress. 
Coming out nowhere is another Black Republican who wants her voice to be heard. The Black Republicans are marching forth in unison against progressives, the middle class, and of course, the first Black president.

The most known Black Republicans include: Jesse Lee Peterson, Alveda King, Michael Steele, Armstrong Williams, Angela McGlowan, Charles Payne, Congressman Allen West (R-Florida), Congressman Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Artur Davis, Alfanzo Rachel (MachoSauce/Pajamas Media), Amy Holmes, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell, Herman Cain, Florida Lieutenant Governor Jennifer Carroll, Larry Elder, Juan Williams, J.C. Watts, Jr., James David Manning, and Deneen Borelli.

These people are screaming at the top of their overpaid lungs about how the Black community is enslaved by the government plantation master and his "House Nigger" Barack Obama. The Republican Party hasn't cracked over 20% of the Black vote since the days Dwight Eisenhower. I don't understand why the Republicans fail at achieving this voting block.

Maybe it's their condescending attitudes towards Black people who refuse to endorse Republicans.

Republicans and their conservative allies always look upon Blacks as reactionary, violent and "natural born" criminals. Black Republicans also agree with the general aspect of the party.

Black Republicans are usually front in center on Fox News and conservative talk radio. They shield the bigotry of their fellow Republicans. They maintain that racism is product of liberalism, civil rights leaders meddling, Democrats emboldening in making Blacks angry at Republicans.

To prove that the party is diverse, many people of color are thinking of running for higher office as conservative Republicans.

Texas senatorial candidate Ted Cruz, a Canadian born Latino man who was born to Cuban and American parents won the Republican run-off primary against the state lieutenant governor David Dewhurst.

The Republicans are showing their muscle by saying: Hey, liberals! We got Blacks and Latinos running for office? Why are you calling us racist?

Here's you're answer.

The Republican Party masquerades their racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, condescending, reactionary, nauseating, pain inducing rants under the banter of either using the Holy Bible and the U.S. Constitution. If you're claiming that you are a patriot, why on earth are you hating on your fellow American just because you don't agree with your political views?

Enter Mia Love, the mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah is thinking about running for U.S. Congress. She will be facing off against Democratic incumbent Jim Matheson, the Blue Dog Democrat who's been stalling progress. Many Democrats are distancing themselves from the president. Matheson is among other Democrats who will not go to the Democratic National Convention. Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri), Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia), Senator Jon Tester (D-Montana), Senator Joe Lieberman (I-Connecticut) and Congressman Dan Boren (D-Oklahoma) are not attending the Democratic National Convention. Lieberman and Boren are retiring from Congress. They're seats are potential Republican grabs.

Matheson is a vulnerable incumbent. He knows that the political mood in his state is souring on President Barack Obama. They will take this reactionary outrage to the poll stations.

Love who is considered a Tea Party favorite is getting political buzz in the media. And on Fox News, the candidate is getting her badge of honor! Bashing the president over some perceived "end of days" claim that usually comes from the conservatives.

Her claims of the president and his supporters bidding on tearing apart America is an example of the ridiculous nonsense you'll hear from Republicans and their conservative allies. This type of nonsense is reminded of the "end of days" theme the Republicans and their nominee Mitt Romney plan on running on!

About Love, her real name is Ludmya Bourdeau. She was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1975; she was largely raised in Connecticut. Both of her parents immigrated from Haiti in 1973. After they moved to Connecticut, her parents brought her older siblings from Haiti. She graduated from the University of Hartford with a degree in Fine Arts. She worked at the Sento Corp. and the Ecopass Corporation. She was also a flight attendant with Continental Airlines.

In 1998, Mia moved to Utah and met her husband Jason Love, who she met when he was an LDS missionary in Connecticut. Love joined the LDS Church and married Jason. The couple resides in Saratoga Springs and have three children.

Love favors eliminating the Department of Education and the Department of Energy, and favors returning health care to the states.

Love said that she favors "fiscal discipline, limited government, and personal responsibility."

At her college orientation, Love’s father told her: "Mia, your mother and I never took a handout. You will not be a burden to society. You will give back," a philosophy she underscores on the trail and uses to sum up her conservative views.

Love is pro-life and has been endorsed by the Susan B. Anthony List.

She supports domestic energy exploration, local control of education, Second Amendment rights, and state control of public lands.

Love’s race has been the subject of much attention, as she is the first black woman mayor in Utah history.

She has said that if elected to Congress, she would “join the Congressional Black Caucus and try to take that thing apart from the inside out” and has described the Caucus as “...demagoguery. They sit there and ignite emotions and ignite racism when there isn’t. They use their positions to instill fear. Hope and change is turned into fear and blame. Fear that everybody is going to lose everything and blaming Congress for everything instead of taking responsibility."

This explains a little about the candidate. She makes the claim that Republicans aren't racist. That's just an imaginary thing created by the liberals and President Barack Obama. They would rather carry on themes that could ruin the economy. If they really want "smaller government" how about retiring from your position and never take a pension.

A reminder to those who think like this!

If you fear the future, the end is near. If you are strong and confident about the progress of our country, things would look better and will get better.

President Barack Obama is not a ney sayer! His political foes are! And it's a shame, people actually buy into this crap! And yes, this leads into the next extremist elected for higher office or plotting for the destruction of this country.
