   Morning, guys.

   Move over Ayers, there’s a not-so-new domestic terrorist in town

   Drug dealer, alleged child molester, and convicted perjurer, forger and Indiana Speedway Bomber (who is also believed to have played a role in the assassination of a grandmother), Brett Kimberlin spent 17 years in prison before his ultimate re-absorption into American society

   He started a non-profit dubbed “Justice Through Music (JTM)” that has, since at least 2005, been funded by George Soros’ Tides Foundation, John Kerry’s wife, Teresa Heinz-Kerry, and Barbara Streisand among other leftists

   Along with his associate, Kimberlin also started an organization called “Velvet Revolution” that supports the Occupy movement

   Any blogger — conservative and liberal alike — who has written the truth about Kimberlin has come under vicious attack by either Kimberlin or his minions, suffering death threats (veiled and unveiled), multiple lawsuits, loss of jobs and worse

   This is making the news on several websites today. Takes some to back track to check past facts , but, if you do your own homework , you will appalled.

   Ouch!

   Carney made his comments while berating reporters for not realizing that “the rate of spending — federal spending — increase is lower under President Obama than all of his predecessors since Dwight Eisenhower, including all of his Republican predecessors.”

   Another one for you , Jeff, and from the Washington Post, too

    More Obama Hypocrisy: Obama National Campaign Co-Chair Works in Private Equity…Just Like Romney

    “Every issue Team Obama has tried has ended up blowing up in their face. First it was the dog issue. Then it was the imaginary “war on women.” Next was the gay marriage flip-flop. Now the private equity scheme is unraveling.”

    “One of President Barack Obama’s top campaign spokesmen is a private equity manager whose firm has shut down several factories and laid off hundreds of people amid a stalled economy.”

    Quanity does not equal quality or professionalism, or fair and balance. All it equals is that some like there news with some red meat. Yes Fox puts on a good show, great graphics, and know how to go right up to the edge without falling off. As for me, next to the comedy central it’s my favorite comedy network.
