Patriots For Private Property Push Back

IMMIGRATION, Media, Private Property

Matters boiled over in Murrieta, California (while Bill O’Reilly interviewed the Hollywood Idiocracy, and his photogenic philosophical twin, Megyn Kelly, did take number four or five in her “Endless Ayers” series. So much for news). Private-property patriots pushed back against an invasion, by uninvited dependent aliens, of their space, their bank accounts and possibly their bodies (by pathogens). The heroic stand athwart forced the invaders to back away. Alarming, however, is the idiot elite’s position: they pushed back not against the invaders and their proxies (the Feds), but against the patriots.

Murrieta’s obsequious, pathetic mayor, Alan Long, apologized for his townsmen, depicting the protest as “angry,” lacking in compassion and unreasonable. Replace the guy!

O’Reilly performed the same jig, suggesting that the patriots were unamerican and nasty.

As I said, the Idiot Elite.

Endless Ayers: Megyn Kelly Discombobulates

Journalism, Media

Vanity creates professional blind spots.

The headlines are hot with real news: The crush of illegals, some carrying serious diseases, is moving from the US border to the interior. This might be taking place with government imprimatur, but residents into whose communities the hordes are being moved are having none of it. Consequently, some courageous Americans have turned them away from the Murrieta Border Patrol facility. Israelis and Palestinians are certainly rioting, to say nothing of the ladies of the American left and their male lap dogs. All are having grand-Mal seizures because a few christian employers won’t be forced to pay for their IUDs and morning-after pills. Things are indeed heating up.

But what has occupied Fox News sensation Megyn Kelly for the last 4 days (and counting), to the almost complete exclusion of all else? That old has-been Bill Ayers. This was a story in 2008, if I am not mistaken, Miss Kelly. But I don’t care enough to … even check how dated this nonsense is.

“A world exclusive” Kelly calls her endless Ayers interviews; “a special report about Professor Bill Ayers,” who “admits to terrorizing this country, bombing buildings and committing other crimes during the 1970s. And he got away scot-free. Because this is America, he wound up as a college professor, who even helped a president launch his political career.”

There is nothing here that wasn’t reported back in 2008. More importantly: it doesn’t matter.

News Blackout For Barack

It looks like CNN might have been shamed fleetingly into fulfilling its mandate: covering current news. Yesterday, out of the blue, Wolf Blitzer conducted an interview not entirely friendly with that piece of detritus, IRS Chief JOHN KOSKINEN. By contrast, a day prior, reporter Dana Bitch ran a smarmy, lighthearted and facetious segment about the Internal Revenue scandal, suggesting it was a figment of the minds of Republicans. Perhaps the stark data of the sparse coverage of this and other Obama scandals, gathered by Media Research Center senior news analyst Scott Whitlock, and presented to large audiences by Bill O’Reilly, did something to create oscillation in the closed media circuit (“circus” is a better word).

… A grand jury is investigating whether members of Mr. Christie’s staff sabotaged traffic on the bridge to get revenge on a political opponent. The story is valid and the network news went wild with it, devoting 112 minutes to the situation in the first week, 112 minutes.
But when the VA scandal story broke, there was no coverage on the nightly network news broadcast for almost two weeks. No coverage.
When the lost IRS email story broke, just three and a half minutes combined on all the network newscasts. Unbelievable. That is a news blackout.
On the newspaper front, the big three liberal papers – the New York Times, L.A. Times, Washington Post – printed fifty-six stories and commentaries about Governor Christie in the first week. Fifty-six.
First week of the V.A. Scandal, two stories. First week of the IRS scandal, three stories. You want media bias, there it is beyond a reasonable doubt.

Lawless Lynching Of Mississippi Tea Partier

From her position as a lowly reporter at CNN, dumbo Dana Bash—whose love for Barack Obama is second only to Jessica Yellin’s, another of CNN’s pack animals—often allows herself to editorialize. Today Dana was doing Jackson, Mississippi, where she campaigned (oops, reported) for establishment Republican Thad Cochran, urging Democrats, via her “suggestive reporting” and selective interviews, that, “African-Americans … do have a stake in this runoff election.” In other words, vote against anti-establishment Republican Chris McDaniel if you don’t want to witness a reinstatement of Jim Crow laws.

Dana assures her readers and viewers that, “Mississippi law allows anyone to vote in the runoff, meaning Democrats can go to the polls so long as they didn’t vote in the Democratic primary and they don’t plan to support their party candidate in the general election.”

Not everyone agrees with Dana, who is no more than an Obama devotee, parading as a journalist. J. Christian Adams, “an election lawyer who served in the Voting Rights Section at the U.S. Department of Justice,” has this to say:

Mississippi law has a prohibition against voting in the Republican primary if you do not intend to support the nominee in November. The law is still on the books. A case which undermined the statute was thrown out and vacated by a federal appeals court. The closest thing there is questioning the law is an old attorney general’s opinion questioning the enforceability of the law.
The attorney general’s opinion, issued by a Democrat in 2003, doesn’t do what the left is claiming it does. For starters, it is simply an attorney general’s opinion. When I went to law school, we learned that such opinions are not binding authority. These days it seems that they are binding authority, as long as the left agrees with the outcome.
But the AG opinion cites eight reasons a voter may be challenged. Number 8 says “(g) That he is otherwise disqualified by law.” “Otherwise disqualified by law” certainly might mean they aren’t supposed to vote in the primary because they don’t qualify under Mississippi Code 23-15-575.
When I went to law school, we also learned about the canon of statutory interpretation that “courts must not construe statutes so as to nullify, void or render meaningless or superfluous.”
The chairs of the Democrat Party and Republican Party recognize what the academics apparently do not. Both are calling for Democrats not to raid the Republican runoff Tuesday. … MORE.
