Obama’s law school course description cited ‘institutional racism in American society’
A course description for “Current Issues in Racism and the Law,” a class Barack Obama taught at the University of Chicago Law School 12 times between 1992 and 2004, categorized race relations in the United States as “institutional racism in American society.”

Yippie. Look what the top 2 cable outfits did last night in way of numbers. I like to call it what it is. The lets scare the holy ghost out of old people hour. No wonder old people get such a bad rap. these networks are there to put them in their place. By saying you don’t get on board then we will take away your pills and rape your children. Never mind that this horrid economy that is out there still produces christmas sales through the roof, charity out the ying yang and a big screen tv everywhere. Not to mention I phones in everyones hands and dollar menus everywhere. Just to bad that old folks don’t take a walk on their walker once in awhile because they might see that the sky isn’t falling and black people are not rounding up invisible people to vote. Not to mention my wonderful democrats you can still get your prescriptions because nobody touched your medicare. Then we wonder why are children are stupid and get out teached by countries whose children lay in the dirt learning by cave torches. God bless america home of free land of the insecure and stupid
Fla. pastor Terry Jones advises Egypt: ‘Put Muhammad on trial,’ not me
Florida pastor Terry Jones isn’t concerned about a warrant for his arrest issued by Egypt’s general prosecutor on charges that could bring the death penalty.
Jones told The Daily Caller that the charges — stemming from his promotion of the film “Innocence of Muslims” — are “absolutely ridiculous” and “typical” of Islam.
The criminal charges include insulting Islam and Muhammad, harming national unity, and spreading false information.
Egyptian authorities, Jones said, “would definitely be better advised to put Muhammad on trial.”

Bashir is nuts. He fits in nicely with Sharpton and Tingles.
GALLUP: O 47% R 47%…
OBAMA APPROVE SLUMPS TO 46%…
Jewish support down 7% in FLA…
AHAHAHAHA. Why are you all of a sudden showing Gallup now? When a leftie shows a gallup poll it’s always “rasmussen is more accurate”. Is it because Gallup has them equal and Rasmussen has Obama leading by 2 points?
Obama attracting support from 47% of voters nationwide, while Mitt Romney earns 45% of the vote.

Mitt Romney ad spot leaves coal workers fuming
If some of the coal miners standing with Mitt Romney in his new campaign ad don’t look happy, it’s probably because they’re not.
The campaign pulled the footage for its new “War on Coal” spot from a recent Ohio rally that some coal miners complained they were forced to take a day off without pay to attend.
The footage of Romney, flanked by coal miners, was taken at a Beallsville, Ohio, rally in August, where about a dozen employees have told WWVA-AM they were pulled out of the mine to join the Republican candidate.
Murray Energy Chief Financial Officer Rob Moore told the radio station in an extended interview that the company shut down the mine because senior managers wanted to attend, and it could not remain open during a rally.
Here is the best quote
“We had managers that communicated [to employees] that the attendance was mandatory,” Moore said. “But no one was forced to attend the event.”
There is that 47% again. Boy Romney was right on the mark.
FNC & MSNBC tied with 3 shows each on the list.
Bill O in second place with total viewers 3309. Royal Pains number 1 with 4232.
Honey Boo Boo & Royal Pains tied for number 1 in the demo. 1.0

I was thinking more Paris Hilton on Lindsey Lohan. I didn’t just say that. You are a bad influence Hillbilly.
Suikostinger – BTW, I can gaurantee you that the only reason that BO went from 47% to 40% is so people like you can be like “he didn’t agree with him!!!”
———————————–
I don’t watch (the whole show) Bill O. I don’t care if he agrees or disagrees with anybody/anything. I knew you was wrong just from reading Bobbyv’s comment.
I went to his site looking for a clip to prove you wrong AGAIN. He made the statement at the BEGINNING of the show. You kept trying to spin your way out of what you said by saying something like – “only hinted it was smaller after being smacked around by his guest.” So you once again opened your mouth & inserted your foot.
Honey Boo Boo, I’m sorry but that is one unattractive little child.

I would be careful about quoting a Politico story. They have their collective heads so far up President Obama’s…

It’s fact coal miners called a radio show that they were sort of pushed to go tot he event without pay and the quote from the owner is true as well(although I guess you could argue that might be selectively edited since he did say nobody was fired who didn’t go)
You think somebody would at least pay these guys(their days salary) for using them in a commercial/photo Op
Another strong night for msnbc!!
-coal miners FORCED to pose behind Mitt for a speech as a back drop and not compensated are now speaking out.
-coal miner executive caught playing dress up in a GOP ad, dressed up as a coal miner.
-Tim Pawlenty resigns as Romney Ryan campaign chair to become a lobbyist. Smart move, probably needs to have a job in November since Mitt will not be in a position to offer him one.
Going to see Tony Award winning The Book of Mormon tonight at The Pantages. Everyone have a pleasant evening.

Mitt Romney
The President said on Leatherman that he did not know how much the national debt was when he took office. Find the videos from 2008 where he quotes George Bush’s debt and run ads.

Okay Mark you got me but Poltico still has their heads so far up President Obama’s…
With as many coal mines closing I doubt if the Romney camp had to force any miners to do photo-ops
