Surprise. The IRS "Scandal" is George W. Bush's and the Republicans Fault

First off, if your Organization Name incorporates Taxed Enough Already, you are one step behind the Sovereign Citizen Movements which declare themselves immune to local, state and federal laws. It shouldn't come as a surprise when the IRS investigates you.

It's possible and, most likely, probable that the Tea Party Organized Groups who applied for all these 501(c)(4) statuses are nothing more than thinly veiled Tax Shelters and Political Action Committees designed to improperly funnel and shelter monies. A 501(c)(4) has to be set up as Social Welfare Organization and can not engage in Partisan Politics.

But, here's the kick to the teeth of the Right-Wing cry babies, the Commissioner of the IRS while these investigations were conducted, Douglas Shulman, was appointed by George W. Bush and served until November 9, 2012. Prior to that Shulman worked with Grover Norquist as the Chief of Staff for the National Commission on Restructuring the Internal Revenue Service. President Obama does not have a nominee at the IRS because the Senate Republicans policy of filibustering all nominees put forth by Obama for  any position.

Now, of course, there is a huge component of IOKIYAR for the IRS under George W. Bush to investigate Liberal Churches, the NAACP and the ALCU. Because... Duh! They're "Liberal". However, that's when Republicans were declaring if you have nothing to hide you shouldn't mind and if you do complain it's because you've obviously broken the law.

But, more importantly what this IRS snafu shows is Tax Reform is a key part of the Economic Reform we need today.

Now, I'm not supporting Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan's version of Tax Reform, i.e. eliminating Taxes on the 1% and Corporate Behemoths and raising taxes on the Middle Class and "The Lucky Duckies", or as Mitt Romney stated during the 2012 Presidential Election, "I'm not concerned about the very poor."

No, I mean real Tax Reform which gets the Ultra-Rich and Corporations to pay their fair share of the Country's Tax Burden. It's been very clear that beginning in 1981 with Reagan's shifting of the tax burden onto the backs of the Middle Class the Rich have been inventing more ways and crafting more loop holes with which to steal Trillions of Dollars which belongs to the American People.

Once Piss Down Your Back Reaganomics became the Governing principle in Washington we suddenly grew a 15 Trillion Dollar Debt. And it simply is because the Rich Plutocrats and Corporations are not shouldering their share of the burden. 

The entire Debt is the result of the greedy rich scheming to transfer the burden of Government onto the backs of the Middle Class in the hopes it would grind them into penury whilst at the same time making their Government puppets eliminate the meager assistance provided to actual Americans.

In April, a hacked cache of millions of documents revealed the amount of Theft committed by Tax Frauds. 

The anonymity of the offshore world makes it difficult to track the flow of money. A study by James S. Henry, former chief economist at McKinsey & Company, estimates that wealthy individuals have $21 trillion to $32 trillion in private financial wealth tucked away in offshore havens — roughly equivalent to the size of the U.S. and Japanese economies combined. 

The report said the money being sheltered included proceeds of Ponzi schemes as well as money drained from national coffers, adding that studies estimate that cross-border flows of global proceeds of financial crimes total between $1 trillion and $1.6 trillion a year.

So, remember when right-wingers and Republicans talk of shared sacrifices they mean for you to sacrifice your pension and your health care insurance,

"They can tell their unions that they have to accept cuts now or face a much more dire fate in bankruptcy court.” - Grover Norquist

"Now, pain will be inflicted when we change that. People are going to do with less. People who are used to having entitlement at a certain level will not have them at that level anymore. That's the story." NJ Governor Chris Christie. 

Shared Sacrifice means the realization of the Republican Goal of Neo-Feudalism, Wage Slavery and cutthroat Capitalism for the Poor and Socialism for the Rich and their undying Corporate monsters. 

The Rich Never Had It So Good

Yet they still complain. And about whom do they complain? The Poor who have nothing.

"[W]e're not going to give up on destroying the health care system for the American people." Paul Ryan.  

"It just keeps getting worse. I am scheduling a vote for next week on the full repeal of #Obamacare." Eric Cantor 

The Republican Party, lapdogs of the Rich are eager to oppress the Poor at every opportunity. The Republicans and their Rich Masters absolutely loathe healthcare for the poor, sick and old. Republican Healthcare is predicated on the Rich sucking every single dollar from you and letting you die quickly after they've drained you of all your money.

But, the Plutocracy won't stop at merely stealing your life savings at the end of your life; they want you to be a pauper before that.

David Simon was on Real Time with Bill Maher last year and stated,

"What we need is a political culture where somebody plants a fuckin’ olive tree, which doesn’t even give you an olive for seven years. That’s how you fix an economy…When that olive tree becomes an orchard."

What Simon doesn't understand is the Republicans in 1980 did plant Olive Trees, except it was a privatized, deregulated, deferred income, out-scoured grove designed to provide Billions of Olives to the very, very rich while they told Us a few olives would trickle down. But, in fact, all we got were the pits.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average topped 15,000 this month an all time high, while at the same time half the jobs in the country pay less than $35,000.

Everything the Republicans do is predicated on expanding Income Inequality. Since, the Republican Recession, the economy's recovery has meant a recovery for the Very Rich.

From 1966 to 2011, the bottom 90 percent of Americans’ average income, as reported on tax returns, went up by $59 showing complete stagnation. If that $59 increase for the majority of Americans equals one inch, then on the same scale, the incomes of those in the top 10 percent went up by 168 feet. The top one percent, 888 feet. The Plutocrats income, the top one percent of the top one percent, rose by almost five miles relative to that one inch.

The Bush Presidency and Tax Cuts were nothing more than the destruction of the Middle Class and an acceleration of the Wealth Transfer Upwards.

According to research published by Emmanuel Saez, Professor of Economics at the University of California, Berkeley:

From 2009 to 2011, average real income per family grew modestly by 1.7% but the gains were very uneven. Top 1% incomes grew by 11.2% while bottom 99% incomes shrunk by 0.4%. Hence, the top 1% captured 121% of the income gains in the first two years of the recovery. From 2009 to 2010, top 1% grew fast and then stagnated from 2010 to 2011. Bottom 99% stagnated both from 2009 to 2010 and from 2010 to 2011. In 2012, top 1% income will likely surge, due to booming stock-prices, as well as re-timing of income to avoid the higher 2013 top tax rates. Bottom 99% will likely grow much more modestly than top 1% incomes from 2011 to 2012.

This is precisely the desired effect of the Republican Crafted and Conservative Inspired Recession. The Rich are prepared to lose money in the short-term knowing that their wholly owned and operated Republican Party will attempt to jam through Austerity Legislation to dismantle the Social Safety Net and designed to permanently solidify the Rigidly enforced Class System we have in this Country.

Every fiscal crisis is an opportunity for the Republican Party and their Right-Wing Stooges to advance the Plutocracy's schemes of deregulation of financial markets, selling off public lands for private exploitation, diminishing the power of Unions and Collective Bargaining and providing Hundreds of Billions in tax payer dollars extorted from the middle and working class as welfare to the Very Rich.

Gun Homicides are Down Because...

The latest Pew Research shows that Gun Homicides have been on a downward trajectory and are down nearly 50% since 1993.

The Question is: Why?

Gun Nuts and Shills for Weapon Manufactures claim it is because of the massive upsurge in weapons in the Country.

Of course, this is fallacious.

The number of laptops, PCs, Macs, Android devices, IPods, gaming systems has dramatically spiked since the 1970's, as well. The number of Micro-Breweries making craft beers has exploded in the last 20 years. The rate of church attendance and religious self-identification has dropped dramatically in the last 20 years.

I could argue the number of Internet diversions has allowed people to vent on-line and the ability to get their murderous rages out in first person shooter games has led to the decrease.

Or that because Americans now have a choice of finely crafted, tasty and quirky beers their soporific effect has stopped shootings.

Or that the abandonment of Christianity and adoption of Atheism is responsible for the drop in violence.

Because A, Therefore B.

Gun Maniacs also choose to base all comparisons against 1993 because 1993 had the highest number of recorded Gun Murders at 18,253. The figure in 2011 was 11,101.

Now, as a corollary let's simply not call the killing of a 2 year old by her 5 year old brother using a weapon specifically made for children and called "My First Rifle" a homicide.

Let's call the shooting of a 6 year old by her 13 year old brother a game of hide and seek and simply quote a neighbor, "I don't know how it went down but he shot his sister." See? Not Gun Violence.

Or let's call the Halloween Party shooting of a 9 year old dressed as a skunk by her adult cousin "an accident" and classify it simple assault and another gun violence data point vanishes and the downward trend continues.

Thus, by reclassifying these as Accidents or Negligent Discharges we can skew the numbers even more. Each shooting or killing is transferred allowing the "homicide rate" to drop 49%!!!!

When the total number of firearm fatalities is compared for 1993 and 2011 we see: 39,595 and 32,163. Recall that 1993 was the Peak Year with the highest recorded year for Gun Murders and suddenly that 49% drop trumpeted by Unrestricted Gun Violence Supporters is placed in the proper context.

The Pew Research paper also states that while the number of guns has increased to 310 Million the percentage of households owing weapons is the same (43%) as 1972. And importantly (according to data from a 2007 U.N. study) the U.S. firearm homicide rate and overall homicide rate are higher than those in Canada, Australia, Japan and in Western European and Scandinavian nations.

Thus, when put into context we see that Gun Deaths are cycling upwards from a low point in 1999.

The fact is what the NRA and Gun Owners of America apparently want is This.

Stand* with Rand! (*Whites or Hot Tubs Owners Only)

Do you see me doin' thrill seeker liquor store hold-ups with a "Born To Lose" tattoo on my chest? -  Bobby DeNiro, Heat   

 The 13 Hour Filibuster staged by Seantor Rand Paul a mere month ago was a dishonest sham staged only for theater. On a Faux Business Network Interview Rand stated,

"If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon and $50 in cash, I don’t care if a Drone kills him or a policeman kills him, but it’s different if they want to come fly over your hot tub, or your yard just because they want to do surveillance on everyone."

You see only those people rob liquor stores whilst the right people own Hot Tubs. I've also been informed that Hot Tub users have a high tendency of smoking pot, I wouldn't know I don't have a hot tub or smoke pot.

So, Rand is fine with using a Drone to kill a suspect of a Robbery, presumably an American, who hasn't had his Due Process. Please recall that on March 7, 2013, Senators Rand Paul and Ted Cruz introduced a Senate Bill: To prohibit the use of drones to kill citizens of the United States within the United States.

Now, I wonder if Glenn Greenwald will begin a campaign of lies and vitriol against Rand in the same manner he has against President Obama? Because according to Greenwald, President Obama is worse than Dick Cheney because he infringed on an American's Constitutional Rights by authorizing a Drone Strike on Anwar al-Awaki (and his son).

Rand Paul is a right-wing madman who would do away with all Civil Rights Laws and Unchain Business so they could put Americans back in chains.

Glenn Greenwald and Jeremy Scahill and all the neoliberal hipsters and self-satisfied libertarians who rushed to Stand With Rand and deified him to thwart the evil anti-chirst Obama got used by Conservatives like they always do.

Conservatives never viewed the Drone issue as anything other than an opportunity to attack President Obama while getting some confused or ignorant lefties to aid them.

Drones are valuable tools and weapons. It makes no difference if a person is killed by bullets, blood chokes, burning or drone strike. Dead is Dead. Drones simply fall under the Use of Force and the 4th Amendment. 

As for surveillance, using a Drone is no different than using binoculars or my eyes. If I observe a crime or contraband in plain sight or if I have a properly obtained Search Warrant then there is no issue.

Update:
Rand realized he upset the Gravy Train of his deluded followers who fund him. And Nothing so alarms a Grifter, like Rand Paul, as when his Grift is threatened:

"My comments last night left the mistaken impression that my position on drones had changed. Let me be clear: it has not."

Please consider sending $25 to Help Rand Fight the DroneZ!

Republicans and the NRA helped the Tsarnaevs and Murderers get their Guns

No this isn't hyperbole.

Now, the most despicable Republican (this time) has to be Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona who sent a handwritten letter to the mother of a shooting victim claiming that he was “truly sorry” for her son’s death and that “strengthening background checks is something we agree on.” Of course, like all Republicans he voted against the background check bill.

But, even before the NRA, Gun Owners of America and other Pro-Unrestricted Gun Violence Groups cowered 42 Republicans and 4 Democrats in the Senate to defeat the Manchin-Toomey Background Check Amendment, the NRA was fighting for the Rights of Terrorists, like the Tsarnaev's to have ready easy access to whatever firearms they wished.

In 2011, Republicans on the House Judiciary panel shot down a proposal Thursday to prevent weapon sales to suspected terrorists. In a party-line vote of 21-11, the committee Republicans killed an amendment from Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.) that would have blocked firearm purchases by those on the FBI's terrorist watch list. 

So, even if the FBI could have put Tamerlan Tsarnaev on the FBI Terror Watch List he still could have bought guns.

And that's through a licensed dealer with a standard background check. Between 2004 and 2010, supposedly 247 people on the FBI Terror Watch List purchased guns legally in that manner.

It's, of course, completely unknown how many guns went to criminals, murderers and terrorists through p2p sales, unlicensed gun shows and thefts from the homes of so-called "responsible" gun owners.

I did a google search for the latest Gun Massacre in Seattle. The first two pages were a Gun Massacre in May 2012, in which 5 were murdered, 4 in Cafe Racer in North Seattle and a woman the shooter attempted to carjack. The Second Amendment Hero shot himself when he was surrounded by Police.

Continuing the search led me to the 2006 Capital Hill Massacre in which 6 people, 2 of them barely teenagers, were murdered by a Second Amendment Hero.

Of course, then I happened upon the 4 Seattle Police Officers murdered by ex-convict and good friend of Governor Mike Huckabee, Maurice Clemmons. However, Huckabee, who freed over a 1000 convicted felons, gets religious immunity for commuting Clemmons' sentence and freeing him because Maurice had repented and come to jesus, thereby washing Huckabee's hands of that killer's actions. 

I also came across a story from Oregon City which stated a 32-year-old Second Amendment Hero was at home on Sunday April 14th, prepping for his new job as an armed security guard by holstering and unholstering a loaded weapon.

Fourth grader Shayla May Shonneker was about 50 yards away when the gun discharged, sending a bullet through a wall and striking the girl in the face while she was playing outside. The girl was later pronounced dead after being rushed to Oregon Health & Science University Hospital by LifeFlight helicopter.

Finally I managed to read the story from Federal Way, Washington about a 28-year-old man who fatally shot and killed his live-in girlfriend inside an apartment south of Seattle, then went on a rampage that left three men dead, including a neighbor who had phoned 911 to report hearing gunfire, authorities said.

It's so ubiquitous that you have to know which gun massacre/mass shooting/child murder you're looking for in order to stay up-to-date on the latest.

I could list the number of murders and negligent discharges which occur daily but what would that do? Gun Nuts are immune to that. The Mass Murders at Newton did nothing to change their minds, quite the contrary, it reinforced their desire to get more guns into more hands.

And that's the issue; More Guns has not made Americans safer. What it has come to is that the NRA, Gun Owners of America and other Unrestricted Gun Violence Supporters are more concerned with getting as many guns into the Country and damn the Consequences.

Because of their unceasing desire to up the profitability of Gun Manufacturers Government Officials are being assassinated and the lives and safety of the American People have been irrevocably damaged by NRA Sponsored Second Amendment Heroes.

Terrorists, Murderers and White Supremacists have a staunch ally in the NRA and other Gun Rights Organizations which will fight tirelessly so that convicted felons and murderous villains will have ready access to any type of firearm, with which they can carry out killings of Government Bureaucrats and Kindergartners.

Republicans got their Mushroom Cloud over West, Texas

Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof -- the smoking gun -- that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud. - George W(orst President Ever) Bush 10/07/2002

Republicans are the servile lapdogs of Corporate Monsters. The Death Toll from the West, Texas Explosion is currently 14 with a hundred injured and millions of dollars of damage to property.

Why? Because the Fertilizer Plant was allowed to operate for years without Government Oversight. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security requires fertilizer plants and depots to disclose amounts of ammonium nitrate, which can be used to make a bomb, above 400 lbs. The West, Texas plant, West Fertilizer, reportedly held 270 tons of the substance, 1,350 times that limit.

"Somebody has to tell the E.P.A. that we don’t need you monkeying around and fiddling around and getting in our business with every kind of regulation you can dream up,” he said. “You’re doing nothing more than killing jobs. It’s a cemetery for jobs at the E.P.A." - Texas Governor Rick Perry.

With the area a disaster zone do you think Texas Senator Ted Cruz is going to vote against federal disaster relief funds as he did for the victims of Hurricane Sandy? No Ted Cruz like Rick Perry is one of those disgusting men who belong to the I Got Mine, Fuck You Class.

But, this explosion isn't a natural disaster it's a man-made disaster. Or more acurately, since Republicans aren't men; a Right-Wing Disaster.

Republicans and their conservative dupes are advancing the Destruction of The United States so they can institutue a Neo-Feudalist Wage Slave State.

White Male Privilege means Never being Suspected of being a Terrorist ala the Boston Bombers

The Only Thing which Stops a Bad Guy with a Bomb, is a Good Guy with a Bomb.

So, the two Suspects are brothers from Chechnya who emmigrated to the United States in 2002 with their families.

Most likely, you've followed the dramatic events as the FBI combined LE Assets began to close in on Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19 ending with Tamerlan's death and Dzhokar's capture.

This almost appears to be a textbook case of Who Becomes a Terrorist and Why. The two murderers fill the niche that Terror groups seek out. Young males, with some education, split between two worlds, suspectiable to radicalization.

What seems to have happened is Tamerlan being older found it harder to assimilate into Western Culture. He did attend college but dropped out, he was arrested in 2009 for Domestic Battery, he got married and made or coerced his wife to adopt Islam, he apparently was an amateur boxer of some ability but was defeated in his Golden Gloves matches and had a flashy persona until roughly 18 months ago when he adopted Islam and started done the path to terrorism.

Somehow the Russian Government came across Tamerlan as a possible extremist and requested the FBI investigate him in 2011 around the time of his transformation. Unfortunately, it seems Tamerlan had not yet been fully radicalized/recruited and had not taken the final steps towards Terrorism. Then, roughly a year later during Tamerlan's trip to Russia from Jan 2012 to July 2012 he completed his final recruitment and training and embarked on the path to the Boston Marathon Bombing.

It seems likely, Tamerlan embroiled his brother in the Boston Marathon Bombing plot. Once I heard Dzhokar had been located alive after the 18 hour search, wounded but alive it confirmed my belief that he wasn't a True Believer but went along with his Older Brother. Also his quick surrender as opposed to using pyrotechnic gas to burn him out means he wasn't ready to die.

Now, of course, this doesn't mean he didn't know what he was doing or the consequences of his actions. The fact that Dzhokar spent the week attending classes on the University of Mass Cambridge campus shows he wasn't an unwilling partner dragged along but a willing accomplice.

I fully endorse isolating and interrogating sans Miranda of Dzhokar for several months without counsel and prior to court procedures to find out if anyone else is connected or active in the States while evidence teams dissect his and his brothers' phones, computers, social media accounts, emails and apartments for other physical evidence and connection to additional plans.

It's worth noting that, while the FBI worked diligently and without bias allowing the evidence to lead them, everyone on-line got the story wrong for personal reasons. Faux News, CNN, Glenn Beck, Pamela Geller, Michelle Malkin, NRO, 4chan Users and Free Republic all were convinced the Saudi or the "Dark-skinned male" were the guilty party.

Malkin tweeted out: Just waking up?  Watertown rampage by bombing suspects Mike Mulugeta (dead) & Sunil Tripathi...

Beck went so far as to say Obama's Cover-up of the Saudi-link to the Boston Bombing "is so far beyond Benghazi it's criminal." Beck declared if Obama doesn't reveal the Saudi-Boston Marathon Bombing / Benghazi Connection uncovered by The Blaze, by Monday he will.

Citing unnamed sources, Faux News Terrorism Expert Steve Emerson told Sean Hannity that Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi, the 22-year-old Saudi national was to be deported by the U.S. government on Tuesday "on national security grounds." "This is the way things are done with Saudi Arabia. You don't arrest their citizens, you deport them because they don't want them to be embarrassed and that's the way we appease them."

Atlas Shrugs Pamela Geller called the Boston Police, FBI and ATF "The Keystone Kops" and gleefully wrote on Breitbart.com about their Epic Failure.

While, the initial Boston Marathon Bombing was a Terrorist act and the subsequent events for the past 2 days should be classified as Terrorism these events seem to me, at this point, to be more akin to Columbine than 9/11. Hopefully, the FBI and other LE Agencies will uncover the motives and accomplices (if any) and continue their excellent work.

But, all the political grandstanding isn't going to help the families of Martin Richard, Krystle Campbell or Lu Lingzi or MIT Officer Sean Collier or the 176 wounded and the Mass Transit Officer wounded by these two terrorists.

Conservatives still love to Order Black People around

An oft repeated refrain of Racist Republicans and Right-Wingers is that, properly understood, Democrats are the Real Racists.

Senator Rand Paul is the current rising conservative star and in order to burnish himself Paul gave a speech to Howard University in the continued Republican outreach to minorities and to cover-up for the fact he loves Discrimination and is against the Civil Right Act of 1964.

During his speech, Rand Paul argued that the Republican Party of the 21st century is the same as the 19th century, "The argument I’m trying to make is we haven’t changed." Of course, Senator Paul couldn't name the first African-American elected to the Senate. The crowd at Howard University educated him.

Paul cited evil racist behavior of Democrats from the 1860's and 1890's as evidence and was surprised by the level of knowledge possessed by the Howard students. Of course, when it comes to contemporary references, the best conservatives can come up with is to have Sean Hannity trot out a black woman on Faux News to say bizarre statements like President Obama has a war on black people.

What is actually occurring is outreach towards the pround white bigots of the Modern Republican Party. Who watches Sean Hannity's show? Who absorbs and believes President Obama is the real racist?

Right-Wingers are Reactionary, in all senses of the word. As racism has grown increasingly unacceptable in American society right-wingers have resorted to many efforts to cover-up their rampant bigotry.

An early attempt used by conservatives was the ubiquitous preface, 'Some of my best friends are ...' said just before something racist. Next came the current conservative favorite, the claim that pointing out their racism is the true racism.

Now, the current phony outreach effort is aimed at showing their base, 'See we made an effort to educate and lead those people and they still rebuke us.' So revel in your racism right-wingers you have the righteous right too.

It's easy to see what is driving this effort. Republicans really see no problem in telling blacks and other minorities that they are drawing the wrong conclusions from their life-experiences. That they don't grasp the awesome objective truth of conservative revelation.

And conservatives are perplexed when black people get upset at being spoken to as though they are children. As though they are so dumb or child-like as to not be able to draw the proper conclusions.

When Herman Cain said "If you're poor blame yourself," the whiter-than-white conservative audience which has been raised on Right-Wing lies of welfare queens, Willie Horton and the Faux News Crusade against the New Black Panther Party gobbled it up.

Just like at CPAC 2013, conservatives believe Slavery was good for Black People and current conservative principles of wage slavery and neo-feudalism are good for them, too. 

If Condoleezza Rice states she will be a lifetime Republican because in 1952 Southern Democrats would not help her father register to vote but Republicans would, good for her.

If Clarence Thomas is still bitter at the treatment he received at Yale Law School and from by the White establishment Law Firms who viewed his Diploma as being the product of affirmative action and it has driven him to be a Reactionary I Got Mine Right-Winger that's his choice.

Now here's the differenece. I, as a white Liberal, am not going to tell any black person what their experience means to them but lily-livered punk ass bitch Republicans and Racist Right-Wingers are still telling Black People what's what.

That is some true racist shit.

Marine Corps Base Quantico and Kurt Myers Join the Second Amendment Hall of Fame (Updated)

"The white man, that landed here; He came with two great weapons. One is the bible and the other was the gun. If he didn't humble you with the bible, he'd crumble you with the gun. And he's still praising the lord and passing the ammunition." - Lewis H. Michaux

The Second Amendment Hall of Fame is already loaded with such hallowed places like Columbine, Colorado and Newton, Connecticut and laudable Second Amendment "Heroes" Adam Lanza and Nidal Hassan and today we can add Quantico, Virgina and Kurt Myers to the Second Amendment Hall of Fame.

Gun Nuts believe their Right to Murder trump Americans Rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

In the early hours of 03/22/13, Three Marines at Quantico, Virginia have been shot to death. Apparently, two Marine Corps Officer Candidates were murdered by a Marine who then barricaded himself in a Barracks and eventually shot himself. The comments from the despicable Unrestricted Gun Violence Supporters were to blame Gun Control Advocates, President Obama and Muslims. (Update: The three Marines were all junior enlisted Active Duty trainers assigned to Quantico. As the killer murdered a male marine at one location and then killed a female marine and himself at the barracks it seems, sadly, this has the mark of an issue of infidelity.)

Last week, 64 year old Kurt Myers, a quiet loner who had only been arrested once in 1973 for Drunk Driving, shot six people seemingly at random killing four before barricading himself in an abandoned bar in Herkimer, Upstate New York. Myers then shot and killed FBI Working Dog “Ape” who was sent in against him before the Special Operations FBI/State Police Team killed him.

Seven people were shot in a wild gun fight after a rap concert at Mr. G's Entertainment Club in the Gresham Neighborhood of Southside Chicago in the early morning yesterday.

The Chief of the Colorado Department of Corrections Tom Clements was gunned down at his house two days ago*.

Gun Fanatics and Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists have so debased and sickened this Country that discussion of Gun Control evokes promises of violence and gun rampages. Multiple aspects of Gun Control enjoys overwhelming support amongst the American Populace. But, the NRA and Gun Nuts are creating an atmosphere of Death and Violence if their surrogate wieners are taken from them.

Speakers at CPAC 2013 promised a New Republican Party. But, what did The Lunatic Bachmann talk about at CPAC? Benghazi and Presidential Dog Walkers. Everytime a Republican mentions Benghazi they should immediately be asked to name the 4 Americans killed. I know it would be impossible to ask The Lunatic Bachmann because she’d run away from the Reporters.

And during all of this what are Right-Wing appointed Judges doing? Ruling that the Government keeping Guns out of the Hand of Convicted Felons is “Unconstitutional”. Because, the NRA backed a State Constitutional Amendment for Louisiana deeming gun ownership a “Fundamental Right” and according to Judge Judge Darryl Derbigny the State did not prove the “government’s compelling interest” in keeping the gun out of the hands of a convicted Felon.

We have a fundamental breakdown going on. The basic concept of Laws and Governance are being sundered by the NRA and a small minority of Gun Owners who would rather have scores of children die than see a single piece of legislation inhibit their so-called rights.

The Leadership of the NRA is paid millions to bully, cajole and entice Politicians to ignore the will of the people in service to Firearms Manufacturers. The NRA spends time attacking the ability of communities to restrict gun violence and supporting the rights of Felons and those on the FBI Terrorist Watch List to own firearms.

Even West Point Cadets know Conservatives are Domestic Terrorists. In response, Conservative Domestic Terrorists declare their intent to engage in Secession and armed violence using their beloved Second Amendment.

No, background checks aren’t a panacea. No, merely limiting the size of magazines to 10 rounds won’t stop the violence. Yes, the rules governing what is and what is not an “Assault Weapon” seem arbitrary.

But, More Guns has not made We, the People safer. More Guns Means More Gun Violence.

Unrestricted Gun Violence Supporters wail that it has but they are lying. We are awash in Gun Violence which is what Republicans, the NRA and Second Amendment Supporters obviously want. They want carnage and children murdered because they love and worship their Guns and Death.

Update:

*- The apparent suspect was identified in several reports as Evan Spencer Ebel, a 28-year-old Denver parolee who was shot to death Thursday after first wounding a North Texas sheriff’s deputy and then crashing his car during a chase that reached speeds of over 100 mph. Ebel is a member of the 211 Crew, also known as the Aryan Alliance.

Welcome to the Second Amendment Hall of Fame, Evan Ebel. You did the righteous work of Right-Wingers everywhere by gunning down a Bureaucrat who was trying to take away your Freedoms and Rights. 

Stand with Rand? Glenn Greenwald blubbers about Drones defends his support of the Iraq War.

"But I had somebody last week in Washington from either Georgia or Alabama that was saying, ‘Look, this goes back to we have got to have at least 50 rounds in our magazines because on average that’s about how many it takes to bring down a drone.’ I hope he was kidding, I don’t know for sure." - Representative Louie Gohmert, Confederate States of America on Drones.

Glenn Greenwald has declared that President Obama is worse than Dick Cheney. Because Obama, unlike Cheney, never infringed on an American's Constitutional Rights the way Obama did by authroizing a Drone Strike on Anwar al-Awaki (and his son).

What is this? Did the backlash against executive power take this long to foment in Greenwald? Does Glenn Greenwald feel frightened that Obama, who is worse than Cheney, is going to send a Drone Strike against him for speaking out?

What's actually happening is Glenn Greenwald is like John Wayne. Wayne chicken hawked his way out of World War II and in response became a jingoistic warmonger and arch-conservative. Greenwald supported the Phony GWoT and Iraq War Crime and now to make up for it he's become a lunatic anarcho-libertarian declaring all Government Action to be the illegal Use of Force.

Here is the text of what Greenwald, himself, relies upon to excuse his tacit support of the Phony GWoT and the Iraq War.

I did support the war in Afghanistan and, living in New York, believed the rhetoric about the threat of Islamic extremism.  

At worst, I was guilty of apathy and passivity. I did nothing for or against it because I assumed that those in positions to exercise adversarial scrutiny – in journalism and politics – were doing that. 

I had not abandoned my trust in the Bush administration. Between the president’s performance in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, the swift removal of the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the fact that I wanted the president to succeed, because my loyalty is to my country and he was the leader of my country, I still gave the administration the benefit of the doubt.  

I believed then that the president was entitled to have his national security judgment deferred to, and to the extent that I was able to develop a definitive view, I accepted his judgment that American security really would be enhanced by the invasion of this sovereign country.

The swift removal of the Taliban? He assumed others were scrutinizing the Rush to War. Loyalty to My Country! I deferred to Bush's Judgement.

As the 10 year mark of that bloody debacle hits home, it's amazing to watch those who participated in bilking the American People whitewash themselves of their guilt. I think that in order to prove himself, Greenwald will equate Obama's policies with Hitler at every opportunity. It's a powerful display. Hundreds of Thousands of Sunnis, Shias, Afghans, Pastuns, and others killed during the a Multi-Trillion Dollar Theft of Generations and Glenn will spare no effort over Drones?

Drones are tools and weapons. All the hand-wringing over their use in the Phony GWoT* is a mistake. Drones are a valuable tool which allows infiltration deep into hostile territory for targeted killings. Why send in a SEAL Team or conventional forces when a Drone can accomplish the task?

Drones for Domestic Use are also not a concern. Drones simply fall under the Use of Force and the 4th Amendment.

It makes no difference if a person is killed by bullets, blood chokes, burning or drone strike. Dead is Dead.

And under US Law (reviewed by multiple SCOTUS rulings and written into State Laws) Killing someone is considered the Ultimate Seizure under the 4th Amendment.

For Reference the applicable reviews of the 4th Amendment are:

• Graham v. Conner (1989)
• Tennessee v. Garner (1985)

Drones and their use gained massive blog-o-sphere attention after the Filibuster of the Director of the CIA by Senator Rand Paul. Couch-Borne Commandos and Self-Styled Champions of Liberty,as long as Liberty isn't Black people getting equal rights, like Senator Paul may have a problem with Drones but that's only because they've never been shot at or had to go hands on with a criminal.

Make no mistake if you've allied yourself with Rand Paul on this you're siding with John C. Calhoun before the Civil War. 

Republicans and the Right-Wing Fart Bubble only mention Drones as a smear tactic against President Obama.

Now, there may be arguments to be made against the Use of Drones. But, if you're mad that President Obama is using Drones in and of themselves you are wrong.

If there had been a Drone available to use against Christopher Dorner (Or against the Newest Second Amendment Hero Kurt Myers) then it should have been authorized and used.

Remember Dorner had already killed 4 people. He published a manifesto in which he stated he was going to kill as many people as possible. Some only tangentially connected. On the day of his death he shot two more Deputies, killing one, carjacked a couple and holed up in house firing numerous rounds at the surrounding officers.

Against a person, such as Dorner, does Glenn Greenwald or Senator Paul demand we send in single officers one at a time to face them man-o y man-o?

Now, Greenwald did write a column asking whether "[A]n armed drone should be dispatched against Dorner?"

But, while Greenwald believed it to be a good thought experiment about "Due Process" and his belief that Drones represent a massive violation of civil liberties, it highlighted the misunderstanding of seizures under the 4th Amendment (again killing someone being the ultimate seizure) and the Use of Force.

Apparently, Greenwald believes "Due Process" entitles a person to this level of warning:

If you believe that a Government should not be killing it's citizens, ever, that's a legitimate debatable position. But, Drones aren't used for the killing of incarcerated persons.

If  you're concerned about Drones being used for surveillance, well unless you are complaining about Cameras in high-crime areas, wire-taps, and police officers with binoculars then it seems an arbitrary concern.

If you believe the President does not have the authority to use Drones for targeted killings overseas then your complaint is with Congress. Force Congress to exert their constitutionally-mandated War Powers Role and have them vote to seize back that power by removing authorization. 

There might be legitimate concerns about the Use of Drones and there should be oversight and legal guidelines but they are nothing more than a tool. Every tool can be misused.

*- The War on Terror has a War Crime of Epic Proportions and has lead to thousands of unnecessary deaths and criminal theft of Trillions. As such it should be ended. But, the Drone Strikes aren't the worst thing about it.

CPAC 2013: Unchaining the Inner Racist in Every Conservative

Republicans continue to be racist assholes. And why not? Besides Grifters and Plutocrats the only other groups which aligns with conservative "thinking" are bigots and racists.

Right-Wing Pigs went whole hog racist during a CPAC 2013 panel entitled: Trump the Race Card: Are You Sick And Tired Of Being Called A Racist When You Know You’re Not One?

A spokesman for the Frederick Douglass Republicans, K. Carl Smith, was brought into CPAC  to allow Right-Wingers to engage in their favorite pastime of bad faith denialism of their rampant bigotry.

While Smith spoke, Scott Terry while flanked by his Confederate-flag festooned compatriot Matthew Heimbach, rose to complain the Republican Party was alienating, "young Southern white males" and the minorities were "systematically disenfranchising” him and whites. He then scoffed when Smith spoke of Frederick Douglass forgiving his former slave masters, "For giving him shelter? And food?"

Conservatives believe that Slavery was Good because it exposed Africans and their descendants to America. And experiencing American Exceptional ism is worth anything, or so those who've benefited from slavery and continue to count White Privilege as the natural state of America.

When the lone black woman in attendance, objected to the idea that Slavery was great, the entitled white crowd shouted her down and Smith declared her "intentionally disruptive and coercive". The Tea Party Racists blamed the entire episode on her temerity.

But, remember conservatives know they're not racists. Conservatives stand in principled opposition to President Obama; Race has nothing to do with it!

Of course, one need not look further than CPAC last year. Remember those Awesome White "Rappers" Steven Crowder* and Chris Loesch at CPAC 2012? When their Mr. America "song" reached it's apex they yelled Ni-[clang], pretending they we're saying “knickers.”

 "What? Knickers? I can say ‘knickers’ because I wear knickers.”

During the run-up to the 2012 election, Rick Santorum told Iowa Republicans,

"I don't want to make blahh [black] people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money; I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money."

Of course, it doesn't matter that 9% of the those on food stamps in Iowa are black because the truth is conservatives know they're not racist!

Representative Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) who called the massive $2,000,000,000,000+ Iraq War Swindle "Just and Noble" is peeved about that darn steak-eating Obama wanting to give hard-working rich white people's money to Santorum Blahhh people,

"We can't keep increasing taxes every three months just because Barack Obama wants more welfare spending."

Sometimes conservatives use coded-language instead of saying "knee grow" or "knickers". Mitt Romney's campaign spoke of Obama not understand Our shared history with England,

“We are part of an Anglo-Saxon heritage. The White House didn’t fully appreciate the shared history we have.”

John Sununu pouted throughout 2012 he wished, "this President [Obama] would learn how to be an American." Sununu must have felt it was hard for Obama to understand how to be an American since he's "lazy" and "disengaged".

Newt Gingrich, that expansive southern gentleman who's been "earning" tax-payer money for 35 years, picked up when Sununu wore himself out from working so hard,

“I’m assuming that there’s some rhythm to Barack Obama that the rest of us don’t understand. Whether he needs large amounts of rest, whether he needs to go play basketball for a while or watch ESPN..." 

But, the svelte Roger Ailes really pointed out Obama's laziness, 

“Obama’s the one who never worked a day in his life. He never earned a penny that wasn’t public money. How many fundraisers does he attend every week? How often does he play basketball and golf? I wish I had that kind of time. He’s lazy, but the media won’t report that.”

State Representative Kris Crawford a Republican from Florence, South Carolina knows what the GOP needs to do,

“The politics are going to overwhelm the policy. It is good politics to oppose the black guy in the White House right now, especially for the Republican Party.”

Of course, in South Carolina Republicans don't just hate President Obama but all black people including the dead. Todd Kincannon, the former executive director for the South Carolina Republicans, claimed the murdered Trayvon Martin would have grown up to be a gay prostitute for drug money. What he wrote was so offensive I'm not going to re-write it here.

There are so many more incidents originating top-down from Republican Leadership but also bubbling up from the diseased recesses of the conservative id.

So, it’s no wonder Right-Wing White Racists think they are the most oppressed people ever. They keep listening to their leaders who tell them they are.

*- Steve Crowder got punched in the head while covering Union protests in Michigan. Well, the man who punched him is not going to be charged because, surprise, surprise once full non-Faux video footage of the incident was reviewed it was clear the protestor was defending himself.

The Iraq War: $2,000,000,000,000 and Rising

And they knew it was based on lies. But, Benghazi! And Drones!!!

200,000 dead*** and at least $2.2 Trillion*** for the Iraq Debacle based on "intelligence" Tony Blair and MI6 and George W(orst President Ever) Bush and the CIA knew was fabricated while dissenting intelligence was ignored.

Two senior Iraqi politicians told Western intelligence that Saddam Hussein had no weapons of mass destruction on the eve of the 2003 invasion – but their warnings were ignored and then not reported to the subsequent Butler inquiry, according to a major new investigation. 

Vital intelligence used to justify the invasion of Iraq 10 years ago was based on "fabrication" and "wishful thinking", the BBC Panorama documentary claims. While information from highly placed Iraqis was dismissed as unimportant if it indicated that Hussein did not have WMD, tip offs from low-ranking Iraqis were eagerly lapped up if they reinforced what George W Bush and Tony Blair wanted to hear, it is claimed.

If the evidence conformed to NeoConservative warmonger thinking then it was highlighted, if it disagreed it was discarded. Confirmation Bias is a needed state of thinking when the Goal isn't saving America from WMD or removing a Brutal Dictator but too steal as much money as quickly as possible from the American People.

I'm certain any day now Senator Rand Paul is going to stage a "brilliant" Filibuster. Surely, Senator Lindsay Graham will place a hold on the business of the Senate until he gets some answers.

Anyone clamoring to Fix-The-Debt or suddenly scared of Government spending do you want to know where the Deficit came from? Well, it was born in Bush's Brain and Dick Cheney's Heart and grew up in the Iraqi Desert.

And how are we going to fix this problem? Why on the backs of the Middle and Working Class. This is going to steal Trillions from 6 generations of Americans.

Republicans and all the squishy Democrats who are the Guardians of the Rich aren't content with just the money they've all ready swindled via Iraq, no now they are going to confiscate from future and past generations with fancy terms like: Chained CPI, Sequestration and the Grand Bargain which is nothing more than the Rich stealing Social Security.

But, worse than the Trillions of Tax Payer dollars stolen by Bush and Cheney and they Enablers is the human factor. The daily suicides by Veterans, the broken parents of those sacrificed to the War, and the millions of future irritations, family squabbles, and days of pain which will be felt and probably not understood for Generations.

***- "We don't do body counts." The actual amount spent on the War and the DoD during Bush's Presidency and the first two years of Obama's won't reflect all the costs.

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) supports Child Pornography and Adam Lanza's Right to Murder Children

Senator Ted Cruz is the latest in the string of needle-dicked pissant Republicans to bring their sick and twisted ideology to Washington DC.

Like a plague of locusts they descend upon the Capitol with the goal of grinding the American people into dust. Cruz thought he would school Senator Diane Feinstein (D-California) about the Bill of Rights.

Senator Cruz: The question that I would pose to the senior senator from California is Would she deem it consistent with the Bill of Rights for Congress to engage in the same endeavor that we are contemplating doing with the Second Amendment in the context of the First or Fourth Amendment, namely, would she consider it constitutional for Congress to specify that the First Amendment shall apply only to the following books and shall not apply to the books that Congress has deemed outside the protection of the Bill of Rights? Likewise, would she think that the Fourth Amendment’s protection against searches and seizures could properly apply only to the following specified individuals and not to the individuals that Congress has deemed outside the protection of the Bill of Rights? 

So, according to Cruz's view of the Senate and Constitution Child Pornography magazines and websites can't be deemed illegal because of the First Amendment.

Also I, as a Police Officer, am unable to arrest people deemed criminals because the Senate can't specify that some citizens lose their Fourth Amendment Rights.

And I couldn't do anything when a gang banger threatens to "catch you on the street" and "cap your bitch-ass" to a person in my town. I can't arrest him because that would be a violation of his First Amendment rights.

And Senator Cruz's condescending despicable rhetorical question was all about protecting the right of murderers. According to Senator Cruz, the Second Amendment Rights of Nancy and Adam Lanza are more important than 26 Americans, including 20 children, Rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.

Republicans are twisted and evil. Their minds have become so warped by their sick ideology that they can not support Laws or Government.

The US Senate is attempting to create sensible Gun Restrictions. No Republicans will support such a Law. When a Country loses the Rule of Law you have Anarchy and that was as big a fear to the Founding Fathers as any.

Update:
I could have highlighted any number of possible scenarios (could the Senate stop the publication of a book containing Senator Cruz's bank account numbers, access codes, passwords, SSN, mothers' maiden name along with his address and photos of his daily routine, routes to work, time he likes to shower for instance) but it comes down to the fundamental question can the Government pass any Legislation?

The Republicans want Americans to treat CEOs like the Pope and Corporations like the Catholic Church

"The name's Francis, but everybody calls me Psycho. Any of you guys call me Francis... and I'll Kill You." - Stripes, 1981 

The Conclave elected Pope Francis I, an Argentinian (of Italian Descent though) to lead the 1 Billion catholics worldwide and address the various problems afflicting the faithful. The United States has the 4th most Catholics by country but America's True Religion is Corporate Hegemony.

Corporations and the Rich and Powerful are the Holy Church and Clergy of this Nation.

Now, the Rich like to call their religion Capitalism and style themselves Job Creators instead of Cardinals but, in reality they are Destroyers and Parasites who live by sucking away money, time and lives from workers.

“When private equity works, it really works,” Stephen Schwarzman said on a Jan. 31 conference call while discussing the year’s earnings. “And our credit business had a truly standout year.” 

Stephen Schwarzman, co-founder and chief executive officer of Blackstone Group LP (BX), received $213.3 million in pay and cash dividends last year, almost matching his payout of $213.5 million a year earlier.

Hosannah...

While the Rich have always had their Bishops, the Republican Party, to issue edicts enforcing their Power nowadays they rarely have to resort to actual physical violence, ala the Pinkertons in the 1800's.

Today their militant religious zealots are provided by the thousands of keyboard conservative commandoes holed up like monks in the flatulent Right-Wing Blog-o-sphere who have willfully cosigned their souls into service of the Rich and issue death threats to the heretics.

Erick Erickson, the disgusting fat-faced, wide-waisted, chicken hawk coward tweeted out the following:

Erick Erickson        ✔ @EWErickson 

That lefties are accusing the new pope of handing over lefties to the right wing junta for execution makes me adore the new pope.

Praise Capitalism! Death Squads sure are hilarious Erick.

Of course, besides the run-of-the-mill sinners, Erickson's "leftists", there exist the high-profile heretics who must be made to repent. The two most often cited inside the Right-Wing Fart Bubble and Faux News are Warren Buffett and George Soros.

Lasy year when Buffett stated Taxes should be raised Faux News devoted days of coverage and multiple sermons to denounce his Blasphemy. They asked each other if the Satan of Socialism had corrupted his soul.

But, all of the religious trappings the Plutocracy adopts is window dressing for their true purpose. Which is the creation of a Wage Slave State and the adoption of a code of laws ushering in a Neo-Feudalist Empire.

The Ryan Budget, the current carried interest rules, the Capital Gains tax rate, the Graham-Leach-Bliley Law, the repeal of Glass-Stegal, the demonization of Senator Elizabeth Warren, the destruction of regulations on Banks and Wall Street, Austerity, Sequestration are all about setting up a system of legalized theft by the 1% whilst forcing the entire burden of government to fall upon the Middle and Working Classes. This accomplishes three goals: 

1) Corporations are protected by a legal system which subsidizes their losses and violently protects their profits,

2) The meager pittance of Medicaid, SSI, unemployment thrown to the poor comes entirely from the middle class,

3) Facing the entire burden of a Nation-State and Massive Overseas Empire The Middle Class is ground down and reduced to poverty and penury along with the rest of those not making up the Rich Aristocracy.

The Daily Caller lies. Breitbart.com lies. Welcome to the Right-Wing Fart Bubble Echo Chamber

Conservatives spend their time inside the Right-Wing Blog-o-Sphere bubble regurgitating each others farts and cross-contaminating their lies amongst themselves.

It's known as incestuous amplification.

There have been several recent Prime-Time examples: such as Karl Rove's 2012 Election Night Meltdown on Faux News with "the math you do as a conservative to make yourself feel better." and Michele Bachmann repeating the Right-Wing Fart Bubble lies that President Obama spent $200 Million USC a day, with a 3000 person staff occuping 800 Hotel Rooms accompanied by a 34 Ship US Navy Armanda in 2010. But, those incidents don't underscore the vicious smears and whispering campaigns Conservatives concoct to get Liberals fired or discredited.

Like Paul Krugman. Right-Wingers hate Paul Krugman, because as Loudon Wainwright III noted, Krugman's Got the Noble Prize So Krugman Ought-a Know

So, Right-Wingers are constantly on the lookout for slanders to publish about Krugman and then cross-link amongst themselves.

In the March 11 post, Deadbart (Breitbart.com) editor at large Larry O'Connor mocked the New York Times columnist for his alleged financial mismanagement. Unfortunately for O'Connor, the report that Krugman went bankrupt was clearly a joke and originated from the satirical website The Daily Currant.

In his post, O'Connor jabbed Krugman for supposedly spending "$84,000 in one month" on Portuguese wines and "a dress from the Victorian period," and concluded that "apparently this Keynsian [sic] thing doesn't really work on the micro level." O'Connor sourced the report to a Boston.com post written by "Prudent Investor." The post by "Prudent Investor" sources an Austrian website, which reprinted the original Daily Currant story.

O'Connor has since deleted the post without explanation.

This type of Right-Wing perfidy against Paul Krugman has happened several times before. In 2011, a Right Wing Punk Ass Bitch named Carlos Gaterol, opened a Google+ account under the name Paul Krugmann, and released a message after an East Coast earthquake, 

"People on twitter might be joking, but in all seriousness, we would see a bigger boost in spending and hence economic growth if the earthquake had done more damage." 

This was immediately grasped by the Right-Wing Nut Jobs and recirculated inside their Fart Bubble.

Of course, Paul Krugman didn't write it Carols Gaterol did. But, over at Hotair, conservatives revealed it doesn't matter if it's actually true: 

"I don’t really care if this moron said it because I know for a fact there are progressives out there who do actually think a good catastrophe would be good for the economy. Unless of course it is an oil spill in the gulf that kills birdies and makes The Messiah look bad."

Gaterol defended his lying by stating he wanted to show through 'parody', "the many misguided beliefs that Paul Krugman holds, defends, and espouses on a daily basis."

O'Connor, like Gaterol and all lying conservative "journalists", find evidence to confirm their conclusions. And if they can't find it, they just make it up; Conservative Mantra.

During the confirmation hearings, Breitbart Senior Editor Ben Shapiro ran with a story about Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel and his secret association with "Friends of Hamas." What's important to understand about the Hagel Hearings was that Shapiro (a chicken hawk, warmonger, Bush backer) found a perfect story with which to slander Hagel and by association President Obama.

Friends of Hamas was just perfect. It fit with everything Right-Wing Nutjobs have been saying for years about President Obama and Leftists, i.e. that Liberals are Muslim Loving Anti-American Terrorist Appeasers. And here was evil Kenyan Marxist Muslim Loving Obama pushing a Terrorist Lover onto the Secretary of Defense!!! Republican Senators referenced the lies during the hearings. Every right-wing blog and journal sucked up the story and regurgitated it in the Fart Bubble. 

Of course, it doesn't matter that the story is entirely false, apparently started when a reporter asked a series of absurdist questions, and Shapiro didn't even do the most basic of research (a google search). What matters to Right-Wing Toxic Nut Job Bloggers is getting as many anti-liberal blog stories, facebook posts, e-mails, tweets and memes into the Blog-o-sphere as possible.

Tucker Carlson and his Daily Caller are engaged in this same sort of "journalism". They've got a Vendetta against Democratic Senator Bob Menedez which they've propagated through lies and payoffs. The Daily Caller alleged Menedez engaged in prostitution in the Dominican Republic, most likely, in the time-honored right-wing tradition of Sex Shaming Democrats into stepping down.

Now when the Washington Post published a story entirely dismantling the Daily Caller's story,

An escort who appeared on a video claiming that Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) paid her for sex has told Dominican authorities that she was instead paid to make up the claims and has never met or seen the senator, according to court documents and two people briefed on her claim. 

The woman said a local lawyer had approached her and a fellow escort and asked them to help frame Menendez and a top donor, Salomon Melgen, according to affidavits obtained by The Washington Post.

The Daily Caller and the conservative dupes who sucked up Tucker Carlson and editor-in-chief David Martosko farts lashed out! There's an Investigation! It's a different hooker! Hookers Lie! 

That the story is an entire lie and malicious campaign to force Menedez to step down doesn't matter.

What Right-Wing Liars are tasked with is keeping enough chum in the water in order to get enough duped and battered conservative drones slurping down the frothy mixture and vomiting it back into the Blog-o-Sphere.
