Ms. Sylvia Passes Away!

Dubbed the "Queen of Soul Food", Sylvia Woods passed away after complications of Alzheimer's disease.

I could remember that four years ago, Bill O'Reilly once said on his old radio program, "Hey, M-fer! I want more ice tea!" He made that comment about how unruly Black patrons act in restaurants. Black conservative commentator Juan Williams defended his comments and claimed that "the media" was blacklisting O'Reilly for his comments. If O'Reilly was blacklisted, why is he still on television?

That infamous comment from the conservative agitator came after he and now MSNBC commentator Al Sharpton were attending the Harlem restaurant Sylvia's. At first, O'Reilly was expressing his concerns about attending a Black restaurant but realized that the historic eating establishment was more than some run of the mill shack.

The reason why I bring this up is the fact that the owner of the famed restaurant had died.

According to CNN and the liberal agitating website, Newser, Sylvia Woods, known internationally as the "Queen of Soul Food," died Thursday, according to a statement issued by her family. She was 86.

"Sylvia gallantly battled Alzheimer's for the past several years, but never once lost her loving smile," her family said. She died peacefully, surrounded by loved ones at her Westchester home.

Woods' world-renowned Harlem establishment, Sylvia's, has drawn celebrities, politicians, tourists and locals alike to enjoy its famed soul food for more than 50 years.

Woods and her husband, Herbert, opened the Lenox Avenue restaurant in 1962, featuring Southern cooking staples like cornbread, collard greens and fried chicken.

"We lost a legend today," New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said in a statement. "For more than 50 years, New Yorkers have enjoyed Sylvia's and visitors have flocked to Harlem to get a table. In her words, the food was made with 'a whole lot of love' and generations of family and friends have come together at what became a New York institution."

Following the success of her restaurant, Woods and her family developed Sylvia's Catering Corp. and a nationwide line of Sylvia's Food Products.

Woods also penned two celebrated cookbooks, "Sylvia's Family Soul Food Cookbook: From Hemingway, South Carolina, To Harlem" and "Sylvia's Soul Food."

Woods announced her retirement from her soul food empire on her 80th birthday, her family said, passing the torch to her children and grandchildren.

Colorado Tragedy At Batman Premiere!

UPDATE: NBC News reports that the shooter is 24 years old. He is named James Holmes.

Reports of more than a dozen people were killed in Aurora, Colorado. At the blockbuster screening of the new Batman: The Dark Knight Rises, a gunman opened fired on the moviegoers. Over 50 people injured and the causalities could rise at any moment.

Many waited for the opportunity to be the first to view the hit movie. A callous human being decided to channel his rage into a deadly incident.

The Colorado State Police, Aurora Police and the FBI are working this case.

President Barack Obama released a statement condemning the shooter and praying for victims of this incident.

One suspect was arrested. Details haven't emerged on who the person is, but we'll keep an eye on it.


The rise of domestic terrorism in the United States. A disturbed individual can be riled up by the angry voices of conservative talk radio, the internet, word of mouth and of course a domestic dispute. It will drive an individual to violence.

Already, I've read comment sections linked through The Drudge Report, Huffington Post and Michelle Malkin's website. The comments from conservatives are disgusting and callous at best. They're blaming President Barack Obama for this tragedy and his call to prayer for the victims. What a shame!

People are reminiscing about the Columbine shootings in Littleton, Colorado.

Aurora and Littleton are a part of Denver, Colorado.

We send our condolences to those lost in this tragedy.

Hannity Comforts A Killer!

Sean Hannity defends George Zimmerman. An exclusive interview with the controversial shooter of Trayvon Martin.

Damn him. Damn this George Zimmerman. What a total fool! Again we at Journal de la Reyna want a fair trial. We want to see justice served to this reckless man! We want to see this gentleman found guilty in the murder of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin.

I also damn that stupid agitating rabble rousing moron! This conservative agitating idiot Sean Hannity and that awfully dumb George Zimmerman. That fool goes on Fox News Channel to give his side of the story. Of course, he going to taint his case!

Sean Hannity was granted an exclusive interview with the shooter of Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman claims that the teenager instigated the conflict and blasted the media for portraying him as a "bad guy!" Mediaite has the controversial interview. Assured that Trayvon Martin's family is upset and they hope that this interview will be used against him in the upcoming trial. Sean Hannity's involvement in this case will jeopardize everything! It's a shame that he can't stay out of this! I seriously believe that Sean Hannity will involuntarily help President Barack Obama win reelection.

Why?

Because he's so obsessed with trying to defend the indefensible. If Satan was a Republican caught in a sex scandal, Hannity would blame the liberals for making Satan look like a pervert. Hannity would compare every freaking generic sex scandal to Bill Clinton, John Edwards and Eliot Spitzer. He thinks that if these men did it,the "liberal" media would give them a pass and not Satan!

Zimmerman described how he first noticed Martin as a suspicious presence in the neighborhood, the 911 call he made, and the violent confrontation between the two that led Zimmerman to pull out his gun and shoot Martin in self-defense, as he claims.

Zimmerman said he carried a gun around everywhere except for when he went to work. Hannity asked Zimmerman why he thought Martin looked suspicious. Zimmerman said he got a strange vibe from Martin that set off alarm bells in his head, and when he made the 911 call, he was concerned about Martin’s “confrontational” demeanor, but he didn’t feel very threatened at first. He explained that he was following Martin so that he could update the police on the situation, not because he wanted to personally track him down.

This is a terrible situation and George Zimmerman made things worse by an interview with this conservative agitator. People already accused Sean Hannity of meddling in this case by offering to pay for Zimmerman's legal defense. Hannity has already bashed the attorney representing Trayvon Martin and accused the teenager of being the instigator. Hannity thinks this was an "accident" and that the media is rushing to judgement!

No. What would happen if this was the other way around. Say if Trayvon Martin had the firearm and he was the neighborhood watch volunteer. He saw a White male walking in a hoodie in the rain acting "suspiciously". If he was to get into a confrontation with this person and ended up shooting him, they would have arrested him and charge him with murder.

It's Batman Fool!

Whoopi Goldberg said it best "It's Batman, fool!"

Christian Bale wraps his final role as the dark crusader in the latest summer blockbuster.

There's a huge controversy from a bunch of conservative agitators who believe the movie is promoting an agenda that favors President Barack Obama.

Rush Limbaugh once again goes through the movie script and determines that the Batman: The Dark Knight Rises is a liberal conspiracy.

I didn't want to waste my time on this story because it's obviously going another attempt to attack President Barack Obama. The movie is going to bring billions to Warner Bros. Studios.

Based on the DC Comics, Batman takes on Selena Kyle (known as Catwoman) and mercenary Bane.

The conservative agitator warns of a conspiracy theory because of the naming of the cast villain being a dig at Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's former employer Bain Capital.

Batman is likely going to break into the Spider-Man and Avengers mold. The billions of dollars that superhero movies obtain are monumental.

Rush Limbaugh isn't a big fan of pop culture unless he's a part of it.


Remember this guy pretended to be a liberal for Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy. 

MacFarlane is a liberal activist, comedian, singer and producer of raunchy comedies such as the movie Ted, sitcoms The Cleveland Show, American Dad and Family Guy.

The creators of Rotten Tomatoes were getting death threats after Rush Limbaugh and The Drudge Report rambled on about the Batman movie controversy.
                

If anything, Batman needs a new villain. How about a overweight commentator who was electrocuted by lightening bolt and became a supervillain. Oh, they have Livewire! How about Shock Rush?

Nevermind, I never was good with this namebranding!

The tragic shooting in Aurora, Colorado will be explained in the article I've written here!

Rush Limbaugh: Obama Hates America!

                    

The daily ramble of the conservative media. Rush Limbaugh (aka Jeff Christie) has the audacity to claim that President Barack Obama hates America.

Seriously, if Barack Obama hates America so much, why on earth would he run for President of The United States? 

The line in the sand is coming! When will we learn that words have consequences!

How could anyone take Rush Limbaugh seriously?

Limbaugh comes under fire yet again after making these remarks in regards to the president's aggressive campaign against the Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

Limbaugh makes his claim that since President Barack Obama is telling "lies" about perennial candidate Mitt Romney's record at Bain Capital, is it fair that the candidate make light of the president's job performance, his associations to radicals (rehash Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers), and the lavish lifestyle on the taxpayer's expense!

Limbaugh has the nerve to compare the president to media celebrity Kim Kardashian.

Limbaugh came under fire this year after he made inflammatory comments about Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown University student and birth control advocate. The private citizen was made into a public figure after the radio host made the comment that she was a "slut" for demanding organizations contribute to women's health.

Former New Hampshire governor John Sununu made the comment that President Barack Obama doesn't know anything about the economy and he spent most of his time smoking something! Sununu claimed that the president ought be more American like Mitt Romney.


Many progressives are calling upon the U.S. Defense Department to have Limbaugh dropped from the Armed Force Radio/Entertainment Network.

George Zimmerman Mocks Trayvon Martin!

George Zimmerman mocks Trayvon Martin in jailhouse phone calls. Latest bombshell to unravel  in this controversial case. Also a witness comes forth claiming that Zimmerman sexually abused her when she was child.

The controversial shooting incident in Florida in which an unarmed teenager got into a confrontation with the neighborhood watch volunteer takes another turn. Apparently George Zimmerman didn't care about taking out a person's life! The Trayvon Martin shooting has become an international issue. The legislation that gave Zimmerman a choice to stand his ground in defending himself is under fire by gun control advocates and Civil Rights leaders. Florida governor Rick Scott was pressured to find a special prosecutor to indict Zimmerman after the Sanford Police botched up the case. The incident led to massive protests and divided many among racial and political lines.

Zimmerman and his wife lied about their defense funding and were held in contempt of court. After the judge granted a lower bond for Zimmerman, newly uncovered tapes have shown that he and his wife Shellie were trying to hide fundraising and secondary passport. The bond was withheld and he was placed back in jail.

Zimmerman was released again on a $1 million dollar bond. The legal defense is now scrambling after bombshell evidence comes forth about Zimmerman mocking Trayvon Martin while in jail.

Zimmerman speaking in Spanish was taking a cheap shot at Martin. While in jail on the phone, Zimmerman made the comment, "You know that when I get out of here, I'll come out with my hoodie!"


The phone call was released against Zimmerman's attorney's wishes by the judge in the case. Reports said this phone call was one of 145 calls that revealed Zimmerman's defense attorney knew the defendant could afford a higher bond, and that he does not like black people.

Hannity offered to pay for George Zimmerman's defense.

Another bombshell comes from the controversial conservative agitator Sean Hannity. A few months ago, the conservative agitator was in contact with George Zimmerman. According to Global Grind, Hannity was willing to help pay for all of George Zimmerman's legal defense. The Fox News Channel denies these claims. 

Sean Hannity was bashing Trayvon Martin and President Barack Obama. Numerous times, Hannity have mentioned that Zimmerman is a "good man" and the media was portraying him as "reckless killer". The conservative agitator claimed that it was an "accident" and it was Martin who threatened Zimmerman before he attacked him. Those claims are disputed.

Hannity will interview George Zimmerman and his attorney this coming week.

And another bombshell also comes in the wake of this tragedy. A witness comes forth saying that she was sexually abused by George Zimmerman. According to Reuters and USA Today, this witness is a cousin of Zimmerman and she decided to come forth.

The alleged assaults began when the woman was 6 years old and Zimmerman was 8; they allegedly continued until she was 16, USA Today reports. Zimmerman is currently 28 years old.

But even if the woman's allegations are true, could Zimmerman face criminal charges for incidents that happened at least a decade ago?

It depends on the nature of the alleged abuse, and where they took place.

The cousin claims George Zimmerman sexually abused her numerous times when she and her sister spent the night with Zimmerman's family in Virginia, according to the Orlando Sentinel. At least one incident took place in Florida.

The location is important because each state has different laws about prosecuting child sexual abuse cases. Virginia, for example, has no time limit for prosecutors to charge someone with child sexual abuse, according to Virginia Statehouse News.


But the last of the alleged abuse happened in Florida, when the cousin was 16 and Zimmerman was around 18. In Florida, such an assault can be a first- or second-degree felony, depending on the amount of violence involved. Prosecutions must take place within four or three years, respectively, of a child victim turning 18. For the Florida incident at least, the woman's claim is likely too late to prosecute.

Time limits for prosecutions in other states can be found in FindLaw's collection of State Criminal Statute of Limitations Laws.

It's not yet clear how prosecutors intend to use the George Zimmerman sexual abuse allegations in their murder case against him, if at all. At this early point, there is also no indication whether Zimmerman will face any sex abuse charges anywhere. Prosecutors released the taped interview Monday along with other recordings, including 145 phone calls by Zimmerman in jail, USA Today reports.

This Is Like The Umpteenth Racist Email Attack From A Republican....

One of the many racist emails being spread around by some conservative. When they're caught, they apologize sincerely for their behavior! Why don't they just admit they can't stand a Black man in the White House? C'mon. Stop playing us like fools! We know you're dying to calling him a........

There's a blog that keeps track of all the right wing based emails. It's called MyRightWingDad.net. This blog keeps track of all the outrageous emails that are sent to your crazy family member's inbox. Most of the controversial emails implement President Barack Obama in a negative light.

Stuff that you'll normally see in the comment sections after a link through either Fox News or The Drudge Report. Or even the daily hostile rhetoric on chatter blogs such as The Daily Caller, The Blaze, WorldNetDaily, Newsmax, Michelle Malkin and Breitbart News. 

This is a rehashed email from 2010.

----- Original Message -----

Subject: FW: Hooray! It's finally here.........

Hi all !

Just wanted to let you know I received my 2010 stimulus package today.

It contained two watermelon seeds, cornbread mix, and 10 coupons to KFC.

The directions were in Spanish.

Amended version

Just wanted to let you know -- today I received my 2012 Social Security Stimulus Package. It contained two tomato seeds, cornbread mix, a prayer rug, a machine to blow smoke up my butt, 2 discount coupons to KFC, an "Obama Hope & Change" bumper sticker, and a "Blame it on Bush" poster for the front yard. The directions were in Spanish. Watch for yours soon.

This is one of the many racist and downright offensive emails that Republicans send online to their friends for a good old time yuk at the expense of President Barack Obama, non-White people and the Democratic Party.


This is email was transported to Facebook where Rutland County GOP member Rob Towle thought it be a little funny to send an offensive joke to his fellow friends.


But he didn't count on the Americans Against The Tea Party group to monitor. Moments after the news spread about the offensive joke, the Facebook page was taken down and Towle immediately apologized for his actions.


I totally regret that some members of the Democratic party were offended by the satirical post on this page yesterday. There were some that commented on the post that they did not see how the possibly inflammatory comments were anything other political commentary. This page is not the original author and the intent was to show the author's frustration at the current economic situation that he/she finds themselves in.

I realize now that there are those that were deeply offended and for that I am very saddened and I will make sure that our editoral process will result in posts to our pages that reflect the spirit of good natured political discussions. My hope is that we can get back to the critical dialog necessary to move Vermont and the US back towards economic prosperity.

Why should they apologize for being what they are? 


They don't have to hide their hate!


They've played the game from the bottom up and they do deserve some credit here! 


All these "jokes" are found on MyRightWingDad.net. They could find a whole lot of offensive ones there.


This goes to show you that the Republican Party and its allies in the conservative movement have wrapped their asses around the American flag in defense of these stupid culture wars. They harbor bigoted views towards race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, political and economic standings.
