Video: Illinois Democrat dismisses GOP colleague as “half” a black person

Guy Benson

April 10, 2014

 

The context for this little chestnut of racial nastiness was a heated floor debate in the Illinois legislature over a proposed education reform bill. The fireworks started when Democratic Representative Linda Chapa LaVia, who is Hispanic, delivered a speech criticizing charter schools. Ms. Chapa LaVia was no doubt casting aspersions on behalf of teachers unions — who’ve contributed heavily to her campaigns, are bankrupting the state, and don’t much care for competition. In defense of the status quo — which traps far too many children, especially children of color, in failing public schools — Chapa LaVia appealed to her fellow minorities within the chamber. In doing so, she took a racial shot at her Republican colleagues, pointedly noting that “we’re all over on this side [of the aisle], right?” That didn’t sit well with some people, including State Representative John Anthony, who is a black Republican (via Champion News):

As some may know, DIRECTV got rid of Weather Channel for a while and substituted Weather Nation. Weather Nation went on and The Weather Channel left, despite The Weather Channel owners asking subscribers to please tell their congress critters how valuable their channel was.

 

http://money.cnn.com/2014/04/08/news/companies/directv-weather-channel/index.html

 

The Weather Channel had lots of complaints deservedly for not showing weather and instead showing Bull Sh&T shows about nothing.

 

Now the Weather Channel is back as well, their whining must have worked or else someone posted a three some of Al Roker and Pelosi and Reid.

 

Anyway, this was the weather menu yesterday around 8 pm:

 

Weather Nation on 361 had guess what:

Real Weather information with real temperatures and radar etc

 

 

And the New and Improved Weather Channel on 362 had:

 

wait for it,

drum roll please,

 

a documentary from 2008, Locusts gone wild.

I saw this article this morning. My first thought was " No wonder he acts like Bahgdad Bob"

 

press secretary's tie costs ($135). huh.png I'm sorry (actually I'm not sorry) I have a problem with this. Why would anyone with an IQ 4 points higher than a flatworm pay $135.00 for A tie? OTOH I may just have answered my question.

The Week in Pictures: Names, Claims, and Autonubiles

A few readers haveshall I sayobserved that while this humble weekly feature ends with armed cheesecake, we arent offering up any gender balance, which is only right to correct since indeed we dont want to be known as just a laddies site, as theyd say in the UK. So were going to start fixing this asymmetry. And since its the Masters tournament this weekend, we can begin by following up on last weeks parting pic:

This is old--from August, 2012--but is still good! Dr. Bellar was running again for state senate in Illinois and spoke at a Romney rally. She released the one-sentence diatribe on Obamacare on YouTube which which has had 3.6 million views.

 

Her contract was not renewed by her employer, MetroSouth Medical Center in Chicago which she believes was a direct result of her anti-Obamacare video.

 

 

IMO, she certainly has an impressive biography.

Yep, I know she was fired, she knows she was fired, but MetroSouth said, "her contract was not renewed." That way they believe they are legally safe. I could not find anything further as to whether she followed up with litigation.
