  2. Wathc out U of Zero, you have company:
    Student writes and puts on a play called Passion of the Musical, which pokes “fun at just about every conceivable racial, religious, ethnic, and sexual identity group.”
    The university administration purchases 40 tickets for hecklers to attend and disrupt the play. Shouts of being offended and death threats are hurled at the stage. The cops later show up and tell the guy that if he continues they [the cops] won’t prevent the hecklers from rushing the stage.
    Predictably, the university’s Center for Human Rights supported the mob.

  3. Congressional Rep. Joe Sestak’s allegation that the White House offered him a job to drop out of the Pennsylvania Senate primary race against Arlen Specter is a crime that could lead to the impeachment of President Obama, Congressional Rep. Darrell Issa said.
    The White House reportedly is going to formally address the allegation in the next few days. In the meantime, Issa, R-Calif., is one of many inside and outside Washington who want the Democratic Senate primary candidate to explain in detail what offer the White House made.
    “It’s very clear that allegation is one that everyone from Senator Arlen Spector to Dick Morris has said is in fact a crime, and could be impeachable,” said Issa, who is threatening to file an ethics compliant if Congressional Representative Sestak doesn’t provide more details about the alleged job offer.
    Rep Sestak, a former vice admiral in the Navy, first alleged in February that the White House offered him a high-ranking position in the administration last summer if he would sit out the primary against Senator Specter, who won the backing of the White House and state Democratic leaders for switching parties.
    If Obama offered Sestak a job, possible Admiral of the United States Navy, that is considered ‘high crimes and misdemeanors,’ an impeachable offense, so stated by the Congress of the United States.
    The media is all over this like ants on a honeycomb.
    Obamas presidency might come to an end.
    Soon!

  4. I think if the B. Hussien and the White House had any intention of telling the truth regarding the Sestak allegations, they would have simply stated them by now.
    http://www.neptunuslex.com/2010/05/25/karma-4/ a link is here also to the American Thinker … good timing as the SHTF just before the fall elections?
    “We call this a bribe.”
    “Congressman Darryl Issa has had enough.
    In a stunning, newly released YouTube video, the California Republican Congressman and member of the House Judiciary Committee has put together a Jobsgate montage of White House press secretary Robert Gibbs and Pennsylvania Congressman Joe Sestak in a veritable orgy of denial, evasion, and just plainly obvious dishonesty that could do serious damage not just to the White House but the U.S. Senate candidacy of Sestak..”

  5. “BP fights back with promises to ‘clean every drop of oil'” – Edmonton Journal headline, May 25 2010
    For the people that are always badmouthing ‘big oil’, what are the chances of us ever seeing the following headline?
    “Goldman Sachs fights back with promises to clean up every bad financial deal they sold to clients”

  8. marc in Calgary-
    Also ran his Senate campaign as a man of TRUTH AND MORE TRUTH.
    He is the only Pennsylvanian congressman to have a 100% rating from the League of Conservation Voters and Penn Environment. He was also endorsed by the Sierra Club in his 2008 Congressional re-election. He voted for the Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation Tax Act of 2007 and the New Direction for Energy Independence (cap and Tax), National Security and Consumer Protection Act.
    He was also an original co-sponsor of the Climate Stewardship Act (H.R. 620) and the Safe Climate Act.
    He is now trapped like a rat in a Cobras cage.

  10. Why was my reader tip removed?
    [ Reader Tips (5) says, Gulp: “Each Reader Tip should include a brief description of the item or the story and/or why the other end of the link(s) may be interesting (a sentence or two, or paragraph, or short quote). […] Tips that do not provide a reasonable description of their link, […] are not acceptable”. Your comment did not provide a reasonable description of its link, so it was not acceptable. ~Vitruvius]

  12. No, Gulp, it isn’t an “audio tape describing 2 Canadians visit to the U.S. for shopping”, it is an audio tape describing a Canadian who gets in trouble at a U.S. border crossing because he doesn’t understand the way customs and immigration checking works in almost all countries in the real world. It is a good thing for people to understand this before travelling naively, but you should explain that in your comment instead of expecting everyone to pick your link and listen to the audio just in case they might be interesting in, say, “shopping in the U.S.”, rather than, say, clearing customs in the U.S., which is what the tape is about. In other words: don’t obfuscate your content ~ that’s not a responsible way to treat the readers of SDA Reader Tips.

  13. For those who are interested, live video of the blow-out preventer and
    related footage during the “Top Kill” attempt at the Deepwater Horizon
    site is now available at The Oil Drum. We should know whether or not
    this effort is successful within the next 12 to 48 hours.

    Update: there is also a collection of six live streams now available, which
    provide some alternative views of the situation.
