An honest look at race

 "Black people could benefit from an honest examination of the bill of goods they've been sold. Such an examination would not come from black politicians, civil rights leaders or the black and white liberal elite. Those people have benefited politically and financially from keeping black Americans in a constant state of grievance based on alleged racial discrimination. The long-term solution for the problems that many black Americans face begins with an absolute rejection of the self-serving agenda of hustlers and poverty pimps."
Prof. Walter Williams. Professor of Economics at George Mason University.  Read it all.

Dim Crims: Driven to distraction

A 23-year-old Ohio man is facing a child endangerment charge after allegedly allowing his nine-year-old daughter to drive the family car, a 1998 Honda that the child lost control of after “achieving excessive speed” and drove into a tree. Jaron McGee was riding shotgun while his child was tooling around last night in the parking lot of Headlands State Park, according to the Lake County Sheriff’s Office. “However the child lost control of the car after achieving excessive speed, and drove directly into the large tree,” investigators reported. Before deputies arrived, the girl was driven from the scene of the accident by family members, who said she was not injured in the crash. Despite that assurance, investigators were checking on the girl’s welfare.

Fifth Amendment move ratchets up stakes in IRS scandal

The IRS official in charge of the division that scrutinized tax exempt organizations when the agency targeted Republicans will invoke her Fifth amendment right not to incriminate herself if forced to appear as scheduled Wednesday before the House Oversight Committee, writes Keith Koffler at White House Dosssier.
"This ratchets up the scandal for President Obama, make no mistake," says Koffler. "Government officials are now taking the Fifth, like mobsters appearing at the Kefauver hearings. Average Americans are going to be smelling a lot of smoke and wondering intently about the fire. Read  More

The Dung Beetle Award goes to...

The Academy of Dung Beetles' Award is being rolled towards  those who are trying to blame the GOP for the Oklahoma tornado  which, in turn,  they blame on "anthropogenic" global warming. They conveniently ignore the fact that this has been the quietest tornado season on record. Read More

Barack Obama's Diary: Bunsen Burma

Dear Diary: My main duty today-- aside from sticking my fingers into the ever-growing number of leaks in the dikes surrounding my administration -- was to meet with President Thein Sein of Myanmar [formerly Burma].  According to the talking points that I was handed just before welcoming him, Thein is a stranger to democratic principles which should make him feel right  at home with several of my czars. He might even get to like some of my dikes. But enough about me.

Ludicrous leftoids

Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith never punish their children and leave them free to make their own decisions. Yet Jaden, 14, finds this too confining and  has decided that for his 15th birthday in July he would like the gift of legal emancipation -- freedom  from his parents — and to be able to live in a home of his own. ...So, that parenting style went well.

Your tax dollars at work...

Just when you thought the U.S. government’s global warming frenzy couldn’t possibly get any more insane, the Obama administration announces that it’s dedicating a whopping $19.5 million to study the effect of climate change on cows. This crazy story comes via the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which is giving several academic institutions the cash to support research, education and other activities associated with climate solutions in agriculture. The goal is to uncover the impacts of climate variability and change on dairy and beef cattle, according to an agency announcement released this week. “We have seen the impact that variable climate patterns have had on production agriculture for the past several years,” according to USDA Secretary, Tom Vilsack. “These projects will deliver the best tools available to accurately measure and respond to the effects of climate on beef and dairy production.” This is the same guy who heads President Obama’s special White House Rural Council that among other things is supposed to expand “ecosystem markets” and develop “renewable energy projects.” Yada, yada, yada.

Obama denies involvement with government

The brilliant Borowitz reports:  President Obama used his weekly radio address on Saturday to reassure the American people that he has “played no role whatsoever” in the U.S. government over the past four years.
“Right now, many of you are angry at the government, and no one is angrier than I am,” he said. “Quite frankly, I am glad that I have had no involvement in such an organization.”
The President’s outrage only increased, he said, when he “recently became aware of a part of that government called the Department of Justice.”
“The more I learn about the activities of these individuals, the more certain I am that I would not want to be associated with them,” he said. “They sound like bad news. Read it all.
