Robert Johnson, the founder of BET television, says President Barack Obama needs to stop taking shots at the wealthy. Appearing with FedEx CEO Fred Smith on "Fox News Sunday," Johnson said that demagoguing the wealthy is not the way to get people to like you. "I think the president has to recalibrate his message"…
He had better be careful. He is going to be labeled as a "greedy Uncle Tom!" You don't dare wonder off the Democrat plantation, if you are black. You are not allowed to think for yourself. You must do what your Democrat masters tell you!

Stop Coddling the Super-Rich
NYTimes.com
We mega-rich should not continue to get extraordinary tax breaks while most Americans struggle to make ends meet.
Hey Warren, why don't you lead by example. Put your money where your mouth is. If you don't think you've paid enough to the government, then write a multibillion dollar check to the government! Nothing's stopping you from doing so. Quit flapping your gums and show everyone you're serious!

Taking the pursuit out of the "pursuit of happiness"
NYPOST.com
The second sentence of the Declaration of Inde pendence contains the most beautiful song of human liberation ever composed. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."...
...Yet that glorious ode to freedom contains a little-noticed limit, one that carries a special meaning for our fractured nation today. The Founders, we can say safely, would have zero tolerance for the soul-sapping entitlement culture of modern America...
The welfare state is the biggest enemy to the survival of this nation, at least as created by our founders!

OSU Self Report: Tressel 2-Game Suspension, Fine
Bucknuts.com | Football Article
"...The university became aware of this situation on Jan. 13, while reviewing information on an unrelated legal issue. The university's Office of Legal Affairs notified the appropriate institutional officials and an investigation began immediately. After conducting additional fact finding, including questioning Tressel, the university notified the NCAA on Feb. 3. ..."
As this makes clear, the university discovered this on their own and reported it to the NCAA, on their own, without any "reporter" having to push them into doing so! They were not covering up anything. What happened the last two days is a couple reporters not allowing the university and NCAA to finish consulting, set the punishment and then make an announcement.

End Of Tressel Era? I'm Not Buying
BuckeyeSports.com:
"Speculation has run rampant since Yahoo! Sports reported Ohio State head coach Jim Tressel knew last April that his players were committing NCAA violations. Here is managing editor Mark Rea's take on that speculation."

Supporters of Slain Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry Seek Justice, Answers
ABC News
"The FBI is being completely mum on where the investigation is at," said National Border Patrol Council President T.J. Bonner in an interview. "We're pressing to get some answers not only for our organization but the family." ...
Pretty much what I'd expect from the likes of Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano (aka, Incompitano) and Barry Sitaro (that's Obama, for the uneducated)!

George Washington Concealed - Martin Luther King Day - Fox Nation
The monument of George Washington was concealed from the crowd during the annual King Day at the Dome rally.
The NAACP says no insult to Washington was intended - the three-sided structure that covered the front and sides of the statue was intended to display a rally graphic.

Pima County sheriff should remember duty
The Arizona Republic - Opinions
...Dupnik needs to recall that he is elected to be a lawman. With each additional comment, the Democratic sheriff of Pima County is revealing his agenda as partisan, and, as such, every bit as recklessly antagonistic as the talk-show hosts and politicians he chooses to decry.
As I said before, Loughner is just nuts. If you want to look as his politics, you are going to find a jumbled mass of confusion there as well. He cites the books, Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf as 2 of his favorites as well as having read some of the works of Orwell. He's a registered Independent and did not vote in the past election. He had an occultist shrine in his back yard and was big into the darkest forms of heavy metal rock. An associate describes him as a left-wing pothead. Others say he wasn't into politics at all, rather philosophy and psychology. He believes that the monetary system should be based on the gold standard.
What can be drawn from all that politically? Almost nothing! He is a mental mess that cannot truly be linked to either the right or the left. If you had to try, which is pointless, he'd lean more left, but again there is no point in attaching him to the left either. He is simply a mentally disturbed young man who is motivated by evil and did not care who he hurt.

Libel is No Path to a Civil Society
Morning Bell: The Foundry: Conservative Policy News.
...Americans like Sheriff Dupnik, who claim that they are interested in creating a more civil discourse, ought to think long and hard about pointing their fingers at other peoples’ words before making completely unsubstantiated accusations. Those who blame the rhetoric of their political opponents for these heinous crimes, when no such evidence exists, only further coarsen our civil discourse. ...

Raging Against “Them”
PajamasMedia » Works and Days
...California Got What It Wanted
The same is true of California. Our elites liked the idea of stopping new gas and oil extraction, shutting down the nuclear power industry, freezing state east-west freeways, strangling the mining and timber industries, cutting off water to agriculture in the Central Valley, diverting revenues from fixing roads and bridges to redistributive entitlements, and praising the new multicultural state that would welcome in half the nation’s 11-15 million illegal aliens. Better yet, the red-state-minded “they” (the nasty upper one-percent who stole from the rest of us due to their grasping but superfluous businesses) began to leave at the rate of 3,000 a week, ensuring the state a Senator Barbara Boxer into her nineties. ...
California, Greece and these other places have dug their own hole. It's time for them to climb out of it on their own. The morons in these places put the people in power that did this and have made no effort to correct course. Let them sink! I don't want any of my tax dollars used to bail them out!

Does Preserving the Bush Tax Rates Doom Us to Massive Deficits? Nope!
Hit & Run : Reason Magazine
...So, does keeping the Bush tax rates mean that the government, which has hiked federal outlays 60 percent in constant 2010 dollars since Bill Clinton left office, will be starved for money? Not hardly. ...
Sadly, too many people in this country are economically illiterate! You DO NOT "PAY" for reduced taxes! "Massive deficits" are the product of MASSIVE SPENDING. We are not in this mess because we have not taxed people enough, we are in this mess because we (our governments, at every level) have no restraint on spending. Some of you may say, "then tell me what you would actually cut." Okay, where to begin, eliminate the Dept of Education, the Federal Reserve, the IRS (at least as it currently is structured towards pursuing individual citizens), The Dept of Homeland Security (the same could be accomplished by combining current agencies like the FBI, US Marshall's, ATF, TSA, etc. so as to eliminate redundant operations under one umbrella), heck, just go to USA.gov and look at the list of agencies and 90% of them are unnecessary and, quite frankly, unconstitutional. That's just for beginners!
