— Ace "The chief Lawgiver of the United States," says professional idiot/expert in being black Michael Eric Dyson.
You gotta watch it, man. (It's the Washington Free Beacon's video.)
He said this on Martin Bashir. When confronted with this frothing lunacy, Bashir responds, "Indeed."

They not only don't know the bible they don't know contemporary legal framework.
Reminds me of that quote: "A story told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing".

As many have said, so to speak, and forthwith, unperturbeable, inperpetuity, that what we have in terms of a lack of color, lack of patois and the speakings of our forefathers, and whom we daresay, owe a great deal to, for their suffering, for what they for us, and not only that, what the futuristically could potentially do, which will have massive repercussions in terms of blackness, etcetera, as well as the inscrutability of the culture, which, so to say, has not lost a single iota of the inherent meaning and cross-cultural shiftingness.
I could do this shit all day.

Well, I guess this fits with all the other bullshit we've been fed about this administration in an attempt to equate them with various deities: TFG's halo, his ability to lower the seas, etc.
And I remember the earthquake and storm that hit DC within about a week of each other.
Verily I say unto y'all. A plague has been brought to us by the 52%.

”Look all of this othering of Obama, like he’s from some other planet. Everything he does is subject to a different lens and seen through a microscope that really tends to pick him apart. I think it’s indivisible from the broader issue of his race, of his being a black man with a certain kind of authority. These are impolite things we don’t want to talk about. We think that they’re being extraordinary ratcheted up. But I don’t see any other way to explain it but a remarkable resistance to the integrity of this man that has no other explanation”

Later in the segment, asked by Bashir if Holder should resign as attorney general, Dyson agreed that he should step down… “off of that plateau where he resides in high principle, and whip some heads.”

I'm pretty sure that this is racist, but they're going to accuse us of that anyway.

Lest we forget what Republicans have done, lest we forget the ideals and tribulations that have besieged us for the entirety of our blackness and existence. We have seen the darkness, we have not seen the light, but now we have, dig?
We have seen the light and can now inch ourselves closer to the innoculation of our past grievances, lest we forget, those white assholes owe us big time...

I'm often amazed by the level of idiocy displayed by the commentators on talk shows. Your designation of them as 'media personalities' is more correct. They are there to show of f their histrionic skills not their intelligence. It's just that these sort of people used to appear on shows like Candid Camera not on political programs.

OT - I think I just got my first glimpse of how the pro-Obamacare push back is going to develop. Someone I know who recently friended me on Facebook shared a link from a Prog Facebook page (I think - I didn't follow that link) that was to a Forbes article. The article basically consisted of the author saying, "Gee, the health insurance being offered in the exchanges in the Pacific states is cheap! Those exchanges sure are generating a lot of competition among the insurers! And, incidentally, the states that haven't started the exchanges yet are led by highly political leaders who are bowing to their ignorant base." (I might have paraphrased all of that...)
Never mind that the Federal Government (i.e. taxpayers) can't afford it. Never mind that one of Obamacare's primary sponsers has come out just since the start of the year and announced that the bill sucks. Never mind that the thing is an administrative nightmare. Never mind that there are tens of thousands of codes for different types of injuries (including, as I noted last night, injury due to a frog). Never mind all the other myriad things wrong with it. The health insurance offerings in California (and Oregon, and Washington) were less expensive than some expert thought, so it must be a massive improvement over what we had before!!1!

There might actually be a reasonable explanation for that. That might have been intended to make it less likely that someone an angry crowd would gather outside a despoil his body (more than had already been done, of course).

How is this in any way a "bombshell?" It's an interesting piece of information, but doesn't seem damning in any way.
In fact it seems like the perfectly sensible thing to do. Why label him as being the dead American ambassador, and provide a juicy target for desecration by al Qaeda terrorists?

I would pay big bucks for Boner, McConnell and McCain to start using the phrase "whip some head" in their everyday discourse. Maybe Krauthammer, too.
True story: the early pressings of Brain Salad Surgery showed a penis in the HR Geiger drawing of the woman inside the fold (later removed). Keith Emerson's favorite request of a groupie was to "whip some skull on me."

but i can't see the players that might have had to do with the attack in the first place falling for john doe, still i don't see why this is anything more than the same type of information where the administrations choices were bad.
Posted by: willow at May 30, 2013 02:44 PM (nqBYe)
It does highlight the lack of post-attack response, there would have no need to play these games if the entire 173rd Airborne was relieving the SFguys response team that had inserted overnight at dawn with a full MEU 12hr out.

I would imagine that the original attackers had already done all that they cared to. The concern would be that another mob - unrelated to the original attackers - would form and raid the hospital once they learned that the ambassador's body was there.

Dyson said in that video that it's not illegal to leak classified info.
Really? Since when? And, if that's true, then why classify it in the first place?

I liked it when Moses came down and whipped some head, because, forthwith, those people deserved it!
Forthwith, furthermore, post haste, post office, with a fornication of the perfersion, as some may have said, at any rate, the pointillistic inquiries into the blackness and blackicity of this super-man, and I don't say this lightly, he has all the subjguluar qualities of the super, and the man. When you put the two words together, you have, super-man, hyphenated at the crux of intellectualism and bravado.
