saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 NC Teacher Screams at Student: It’s Criminal to Criticize Obama Email ArticlePrint Article Send a Tip by Ben Shapiro 1 hour ago 45 post a comment A YouTube video uploaded on Monday afternoon apparently shows a schoolteacher from the Rowan-Salisbury school district in North Carolina informing a student that failing to be respectful of President Obama is a criminal offense. Breitbart News has uncovered that the student is a high school junior. The video shows a classroom discussion about the Washington Post hit piece about Mitt Romney bullying a kid some five decades ago. One student says, “Didn’t Obama bully someone though?” The teacher says: “Not to my knowledge.” The student then cites the fact that Obama, in Dreams from My Father, admits to shoving a little girl. “Stop, no, because there is no comparison,” screams the teacher. Romney is “running for president. Obama is the president.” ************* The student says that it would violate First Amendment rights to jail someone for such sentiments. “You would have to say some pretty f’d up crap about him to be arrested,” says the student. “They cannot take away your right to have your opinion … They can’t take that away unless you threaten the president.” Clearly, the student should be teaching the class, and the teacher should be reading the Constitution more often. The student responds that both are “just men.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 The real curse of the Kennedys It’s their treatment of women Last Updated: 10:14 AM, May 20, 2012 Posted: 11:15 PM, May 19, 2012 Maureen Callahan Along with their waning power, wealth, privilege and prestige, here’s another element of the Camelot mystique that needs to be extinguished: the myth of “The Kennedy Curse.” It’s almost a reflexive national reaction when we hear of yet another Kennedy dying too young, so of course it was invoked again last week, when news broke that Mary Richardson Kennedy, the estranged 52-year-old wife of Robert Kennedy Jr., had hung herself in her barn on Wednesday. A curse, however, implies supernatural intervention by vengeful gods jealous of mortal youth, beauty, brilliance. ACE/INFphoto.com Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his wife Mary Richardson Kennedy during a 2002 gala benefit to celebrate the Sundance Institute 20th Anniversary at Cipriani on 42nd St. in New York City Let’s just call it what it is: the natural fallout when you’re a member of a family riddled with entitled, underachieving drunks, drug addicts and adulterers, whose treatment of women is historically deplorable. It’s a top-down mentality that began in the 1920s, with patriarch Joe. Leaving aside his other character flaws — running with gangsters, espousing racist and anti- Semitic beliefs, buying his son’s presidential election — Joe was such a callous philanderer that he often brought his mistress, actress Gloria Swanson, home to dinner with his wife, Rose.

saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Heh. Calling @Geee (for reading later). Boehner: ‘218 frogs’ By DARREN SAMUELSOHN | 5/20/12 1:50 PM EDT House Speaker John Boehner says his Republican caucus often acts like a bunch of antsy amphibians. “It is hard to keep 218 frogs in a wheelbarrow long enough to get a bill passed,” the Ohio Republican said in an interview aired Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” when asked about the internal criticism of his leadership style.

saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I am watching the Panel on Fox News Sunday. Joe Trippi looked very uncomfortable when asked about what happens if Greece fails. He was making sense, about this possibly being more influential than Ohio or Florida in the election, but then he could not stop himself from hyperbolic statements on how austerity isn't working. It's working for Germans, but it doesn't work in the Euro. France and Greece essentially believe that they have voted themselves the German economy. On to Iran, Bill Kristol was talking about kicking the can down the road about what to do about Iran. Again, Joe looked deeply uncomfortable. Evan Bayh didn't show as much emotion, but I think that Joe may understand more, even if we disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 @saveliberty Leadership and Boehner? Isn't that some sort of oxymoron? Now you are being unkind. I think that he pushed the Administration into a very uncomfortable spot, which is why they aren't going any further without tax increases. I like John Boehner. Full disclosure, I have lived in Ohio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saveliberty Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Okay, if Joe Trippi didn't have such a bad record.... At least Joe seems to be saying what he believes honestly rather than dissembling, as is Evan Bayh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked this comment from the post: DocJay They could try being monogamous but that won't work in those crazy cultures. Oh well, as the moyl says," ignorance is bris". Besides they can can make a suitcase that if palpated properly will make a nice tent in a rainstorm. So I'm told at least but the info is circumspect.
