To: Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Rep. Bobby Rush, Rep. Maxine Waters, Rep Frederica Wilson, Spike Lee, Rep. Hank Johnson, The New Black Panthers, Mark Potok and Richard Cohen and the SPLC, and other race hustlers of their ilk.
Take a moment to read Thomas Sowell's column at Townhall.com, a commentary on Geraldo Rivera's "hoodie comment" and common sense vs. the race hustling that you engage in.
Some excerpts:
"The man who shot the black teenager in Florida may be as guilty as sin, for all I know -- or he may be innocent, for all I know. We pay taxes so that there can be judges and jurors who sort out the facts. We do not need Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton or the President of the United States spouting off before the trial has even begun."
"Playing with racial polarization is playing with fire."
"Have we forgotten the Jim Crow era, with courts making decisions based upon the race of the defendants, rather than the facts of the case? That is part of the past that we need to leave in the past, not resurrect it under new racial management."
"Who is really showing concern for the well-being of minority youngsters, Geraldo Rivera who is trying to save lives, or Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and others who are hyping this tragic episode for their own benefit?"
Read the entire column here.
Could not have said it better myself, except to pose this question to the race hustlers:
How many innocent people will have to be maimed or die as a result of the mob violence you have incited with your perverted calls for "justice"?
Don't even try to deny it, as it has already started. See here, here, and here.

Quote of the Day
In sum, from January 2009 to January 2011 — in the pre-Climategate days before Al Gore was a “sex poodle” and when the Himalayan glaciers were to be swamps and polar bears extinct — new gas and oil production was considered “bad,” given that Obama was pushing wind, solar, and “alternative” energies. In those giddy cap-and-trade days, he could afford to pontificate because he was not up for reelection and world demand was sluggish, dropping oil prices at the wellhead. When the world economy began rebounding, demand picked up, prices spiked, and now Obama is in campaign mode: suddenly high gas prices are bad and he claims not that he wants his House-approved cap-and-trade bill pushed through his Democratically controlled Senate, but rather that all along he has encouraged private enterprise to drill while successfully persuading us to cut back our consumption (as if we did so because of the impressive oratory of Barack Obama rather than because he had managed to ensure millions of Americans now had no jobs to drive to work to).
Victor Davis Hanson, The Gaseous Policies of Barack Obama
My Note: A must-read article for anyone who is a producer. Democrats and their ilk are requested to continue their immersion in Obamaganda.

Quote of the Day
"My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference!"
Harry S. Truman
By the way, some information about the last arguably honorable Democrat to occupy the White House:
Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation's history as any of the other 42 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House.
The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri . His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House, they lived their entire lives there.
When he retired from office in 1952 his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.
After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.
When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the President, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale."
Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."
As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food.
I have not personally verified this information. I received it in an email from a family member, and thought it sufficiently interesting to pass along.

Free Shipping Alert: US Plastic
I just received an email from US Plastic. They are running a free shipping promotion on orders over $75.00. I have ordered their economy five gallon buckets and standard lids in the past, and have found that US Plastic sells a quality product for the price. The economy buckets, in white, are food grade. The standard lids are food grade and have a rubber gasket seal.
The only reservation I have had about ordering is the cost of shipping. Well, that has been remedied through March 23, if you have at least $75.00 in your order and use code 68041 at step 3 in the checkout process.

Quote of the Day
"Due process and judicial process are not one and the same, particularly when it comes to national security. The Constitution guarantees due process, not judicial process."
Eric "Himmler" Holder, Attorney General of the United States of Amerika.
The above quote was Gestapomeister Holder's response to questions about whether or not the Obama regime felt that it could target Americans for assassination within U.S. borders.
Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/03/07/mueller-have-to-check-with-holder-whether-targeted-killing-rule-is-outside-us/#ixzz1oeGKOfOg
This story was covered by other blogs such as Zero Hedge and Mike Vanderboegh, but I did not see mention of this quote, which should scare the pants off of anyone with even passing knowledge of the Constitution and the concept of Due Process of Law.
Holder's statement is a very broad statement that exceeds the context in which it was given. He states that there is a right to due process, but not to judicial process. Think about this for a moment. What is due process and how does a citizen obtain it?
The simple answer is that judicial process is an inseparable part of due process. Without judicial process, the review of government action by the judiciary, due process is only the two words, a hollow shell of the idea that a person's rights under the Constitution are respected and enforced. Without judicial process, due process is whatever the executive branch says it is, without the mechanism of judicial oversight and review guaranteed by the Constitution. Due process would simply be a label plastered over the regimes practices, used to justify its actions, in this case the action being the sentencing to death of a citizen without judicial process.
How is judicial process essential to due process? Judicial process is the real time application of due process, the proceedings which form the check and balance on the power of the state. It is the court procedure and case law interpretation of statutory law which, for example, examines whether the state has reasonable suspicion of a crime committed, probable cause to believe that a person committed the crime, whether the state violated the person's rights such as to remain silent, to ensure that proceedings are fair and that the accused has legal counsel, to apply the legal standard of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, and to ensure that the punishment is not cruel or unusual.
Holder's statement, taken at face value, declares that none of the judicial process in the preceding paragraph is required.
Decades ago, the Supreme Court ruled that persons accused of misdemeanor traffic violations have the right to counsel where imprisonment was a possible penalty under the statute, even if it were unlikely that a defendant were to be sentenced to a day of jail time.
We have gone so far down the road to tyranny that, in a country that once upheld the right to a defense attorney for a misdemeanor traffic violation, there is no outrage when the nation's lead attorney declares that there is no right to judcial process (much less a defense attorney) when the government decides that a citizen's life is to be extinguished.
Holder is not only an embarrassment to the legal profession, but is a domestic enemy to the American people. FBI Director Robert Mueller, himself an attorney and former U.S. Attorney, is a co-conspirator to Holder's crimes against the American people. I only hope that the next administration prosecutes Holder and Mueller to the fullest extent of the law, but I will not be holding my breath in anticipation.
Sometimes I don't recognize this country that I was born and raised in.
Eric "Himmler" Holder, Attorney General of the United States of Amerika.

EyeWitless News: 84-year Old Voter Told She's Dead
On Super Tuesday, 84 year old Maureen McCloskey went to the polls in Falls River, Massachusetts and was told that she was dead and could not vote. Once Ms. McCloskey informed the poll worker that she was indeed alive, the poll worker allowed her to vote.
Ms. McCloskey disclosed that she is a lifelong Democrat, which explains why the poll worker would give her a ballot without independently verifying that Ms. McCloskey is alive. Now that Ms. McCloskey has identified as a Democrat, I predict that Massachusetts election officials will ensure that she continues to be registered to vote, and that she votes early and often, long after she departs the mortal plane.
I also predict that she has been registered to vote in Chicago, Illinois and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
CBS story, here.

The Reichsfuhrer's Peepshow
Interesting YouTube video on how to "Get Anything Through TSA Nude Body Scanners". Looks like there is only one reason for Reichsfuhrer Janet Incompetano Napolitano's airport body scanners: perversion.
