“It’s an outrage,” Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch said in a statement. “Electing genocidal Sudan to a global human rights body is like choosing Jack the Ripper to guard a women’s shelter. This diminishes the credibility of the United Nations human rights system and casts a shadow upon the reputation of the organization as a whole.”
Simmer down, Neuer. They’re just taking their turn at the trough.

Well, this I did not know – the FBI has a That Person Sent Me A Nasty Personal Email Division.
In total, there are 21 districts in Cleveland where Mr. Romney received precisely 0 votes. In 23 districts, he received precisely 1 vote. And naturally, in one of the districts where Obama won 100% of the vote, there was 100% turnout. What a coincidence!
6) The only thing registering any meaningful growth in the US is the national debt. It took over 200 years for the US government to accumulate its first trillion dollars in debt. It took just 286 days to accumulate the most recent trillion (from $15 trillion to $16 trillion).
When it all comes to a crashing end, I suggest they eat the “journalists” first.
A little Mark Steyn to start off your morning.
Unable to face the fact they made a colossal mistake in 2008, sufficient Americans voted to keep a president who broke more promises than he kept, who set historic new debt limits, created four consecutive trillion-dollar budget deficits, failed to achieve his own employment goals and accepted responsibility for nothing, except what SEAL Team 6 did for us.
“The best is yet to come,” the chronic deficit spender vowed ominously.
Succinct and scathing.
Hear my prayer.

Posted this not out of arrogance or cockiness, but to highlight something I found shocking. Not one thing did I say about economics is false or a lie. It all stands to not just logic and reason, but reality. The shocker is how there are so many people that refuse to accept this as reality and resort to emotion, if not outright anger (though I did add the cigar to give it that “arrogant touch”).
Via Instapundit;
Okay. Just so we’ve all got our history right:
1990′s: Use an ill-timed military exercise to divert attention from the botched handling of an extramarital affair.
2010′s: Use an ill-timed extramarital affair to divert attention from the botched handling of a military exercise.

So, let’s get this straight.
“A lot of us out here are fighting for our lives,” said Feliciano, 51. “A lot of people are desperate. They don’t know where they are getting their next meal.
“We are fighting amongst ourselves here because we are tired. And we are frustrated.”
A major disaster occurs on the outskirts of one of the most advanced civilizations on earth, and 10 days later there are victims walking 6 miles to find food?
They should have voted for Republicans. This might be a scandal by now.
My cousin-in-law, Robert, an American originally from Nicaragua, shares his thoughts.
Before anyone jumps the gun about Benghazi or other theories regarding Patraeus’ resignation, it should be noted that having a secret affair while involved in the CIA is a very big deal.
You understand that he has some very big things in his head that have to remain secret. Setting yourself up for blackmail is a bad thing. He had to come clean.
After Obama reelection coal company CEO reads prayer to staff, announces layoffs
The head shaking part is in the comments. Lots of hate and ignorance about their own law.
All these layoffs are because the 2014 Obamacare fines will be calculated using 2013 full-time employee numbers over 50. All these hour reductions down to 29 hours? The bill redefines “full-time” as 30 hours of work a week.
(See below the fold for further explanations.)
But they were communist mass murderers so it’s all OK
I love how some of the ignorant students clap. Perhaps Dr. Grover Furr could speak with a fellow professor who actually lived under communism..
