First, a “news” story:
LA Gov. Bobby Jindal “The Confederate flag is a symbol of my heritage”
Baton Rouge, LA – Louisiana Governor and GOP presidential candidate, Piyush “Bobby” Jindal, 44, spoke with Phil Hemmer via satellite on Fox News’ Happening Now this morning to discuss the ever-growing Confederate flag controversy. However, it wasn’t Jindal’s opinion on what states should do about the flag that had people talking afterwords.
While discussing the historic South Carolina Senate vote to have the flag removed from statehouse grounds, Jindal told Hemmer, “Like the same-sex marriage issue, I believe this should be decided on by the states, not the courts. Let the people’s voices be heard. Like many others who hail from the great Creole state, the Confederate flag is a symbol of my heritage, and that heritage has nothing to do with racism or hate.”
It would seem Bobby is once again trying to put mileage between himself and his family’s immigrant past. It’s no secret that Jindal, the first Indian-American governor in US history, is uncomfortable in his own skin. For years now he has tried to distance himself from his Indian roots, and his remarks this morning are just the latest in a long line of bizarre statements and actions.
Good luck finding the video of that interview because it didn’t happen. It’s a bogus story. 100% F.A.K.E. It’s not even satire, it’s just a made up lie.
Ta Nehisi Coates got suckered in. Then when he was confronted with the truth he deleted his tweet and apologized. But that didn’t let Jindal off the hook.
“Ha ha, Palin is so stupid she thinks she can see Russia from her porch!”
“She never said that. It was Tina Fey on SNL that said it.”
“Well she’s stupid enough to say it!”
Today’s Progressives live in a world of caricatures and strawmen. Republicans are all stupid, racist, sexist, homophobic bigots who hate poor people. Anything that fits that narrative is believed and repeated. Anything that doesn’t fit that narrative is ignored.
And Progs are always right. Even when they are wrong. Because shut-up you racist!
My sister has a birthday coming up. I think I’ll buy her a case of my favorite beer. (Sierra Nevada Pale Ale)
She don’t drink and neither does her husband, but that way there will be some beer at her house when I go there to visit.
Where exactly does she live? Will probably visit Mariposa/Yosemite in a few days and could use a well equipt way station.
Off West 140
Perfect!
In the old days 1314 was a frequent stop.
“West 140” as in “Franklin/Mitchell” area.
have the snow chains in your car. see downstairs. snow at Yosemite
Thanks. Summer snows in the high country are normal. But not to worry. They never stick and I’m a Valley Boy. ☺ Just hang around the valley and Wawona areas. Far below the summer and early fall snowlines. ☺ Besides, California snow isn’t as cold or slippery as other snow. It’s the law.
Great idea and great brew.
Ruh roh!

Can you say “Ross Puh-row?”
How many years have we been screaming for a Third Party? Perot came close, as did Nader in 2k. As Nader said in 2k, if you can’t win in a landslide, you don’t deserve to win.
Trump may be the spoiler, so Hills will win? So be it. If you can’t get conservatives off their couches to vote, they deserve to lose, again.
I’ll say this for Donald Trump: If it comes down to a 3-way race between Jeb, Hillary and Trump, I’ll vote for The Donald.
I’m right there with you. I hate Bush and Clinton, and both parties. That would mess with things nicely. And I have this funny feeling we’re not alone.
This is the problem I have with Trump. If he wants to run as a third party, fine. But he shouldn’t expect to trash every Republican who disagrees with him, refuse to support the nominee and still be accepted as a Republican candidate. So far, Trump has only proposed building a big fence. Does that mean he’ll only fill cabinet posts or SCOTUS openings with border security supporters?
So far, he’s a one-trick pony. The difference is that no one else wants to use that trick.
Well the one trick Trump has picked affects so many things. Illegals take jobs from American citizens, they depress wages and some of the criminal illegals wage war and prey on American citizens. Illegals are a major problem and one that is ignored by both parties. they would rather pander to illegals than talk about the economic realities and safety of Citizens.
That’s the campaign (Perot) that Bill Clinton won with a plurality, not a majority in a 3-way race. What are the chances that the same strategy could get his wife elected 25 years later? High, ya think?
The same thing happened in 1996. Clinton won with just under 50%. Perot was on the ballot, but he wasn’t really “running” by then.
I just love this….making sh*t up seems to be the NEW media. Believing made up sh*t seems to be the NEW liberal battle cry==> Well it might be fake, but could be true ?
We are ‘administered to’ by Teh Stoopids. (Can no longer say ‘governed’ because they don’t).
OPM director’s priority is “diversity”. So now all races, nationalities, creeds, sexual preferences are able to hack us.
This is WHY you put a politics clause in your Hollyweird contracts, I don’t think this would be a story if this snowflake didn’t endorse Hillary and Michelle’s Healthy Grub initiatives…..

Sigh, kids. Sidebar: I’ve still never heard of her.
She’s got talent, but she has been turned into a hypersexualized pop tart. Those things have a short shelf life.
She used to be a Nickelodeon star until a couple of years ago. It turned out she became more famous than iCarly, whose show she replaced.
She’s 22 — I had no idea she was that old (not that 22 is old — but I seriously thought she was 16). She is obviously playing up her child star roots with the pony tail and short skirts to appeal to the pedo/Lolita crowd.
And her brother is that super obnoxious no-talent loser Frankie Grande who was on Big Brother a few years back.
That’s two strikes against her even BEFORE the donut-liking/”I hate America” crap
LOL. I was going to mention Big Brother, but I thought no one would know what I was writing about. Frankie was ridiculous. He used a dying grandfather to get sympathy, then used his celebrity connection to stay a little longer.
I’m not even watching BB this year. They have a transgender house guest. They’re going to handle that in the most stupid way possible.
That is major nasty and anti-social behavior spitting or putting your filthy tongue to despoil food in a public place. But that is why donuts or any other food item should be stored behind glass or counters so little freaks like this moron can’t contaminate things with her mouth or filthy hands.
“Phil” Hemmer? That should have been a clue. Phil, Bill what’s the difference, they rhyme. Besides all those white privilege males all look alike.

Hahahah.
I ❤ Ace:
I’m low class all the way.
these are my kind of people
Perfect, Helen!
Everybody should read this! He is right too–the dems don’t want problems solved because these wedge issues are used to get them elected. Btw, just saw Megan Kelly make an excellent point. Obama has spoken, sent the DOJ, and the FBI for Trayvon Martin to Freddie Gray but silence on the woman shot in San Francisco.

I literally screamed when I first saw it.
And then you shared.
I think it’s cuuuute.

Not.going.there.
Put on reading glasses to see if she was really bare bottomed – surprise it’s a pink butterfly thong. The positives – she is wearing a bra and t-shirt (don’t want to see bikini top) and she’s on the beach not shopping at Wally’s.
Drinks are now being served in the dungeon – please join us. 🍹🍺🍸
Poor butterfly.
Now they are saying he’s not dead.
That’s weird.
I always thought Ken might be the second coming.
heh!
I have an autographed copy of his autobiography.

Now, if only Jerry Brown would rethink that bullet train thingy……
You can never discuss homosexuality with a prog. They are not equiped and in my experience cut you off completely. I am gay and I have questions. I was a sick kid did my mother over compensate because she felt powerless and smothered me. As I got older did I screw and dig out my eyeballs. NO but Freud is now bashed and completely dismissed. He was a very gifted writer. Had a bad habit or two but he also opened up discussion. Same thing happens with Ayn Rand. Discount entire body of work insult assault things you have never read because other hip elitists do. I do not see the use in simply extinguishing a fiery debate. I am flabbergasted by this flag thing. A flag did not make this sick boy shoot anybody.
Back to dear Ayn the first time I heard her dismissed was Dirty Dancing. Baby said the book was some people count and others do not. Huh? I am not smitten by Atlas Shrugged much prefer The Fountainhead. There is a graphic rape in there. Howard rapes Dominique . I could see someone getting upset there but the people that have never read Rand are the ones that attack Objectivism. I think thy are all Grubers following marching orders.The contradiction the far left has with her is astounding.
I bought a book one day on the street called The Homosexual neuro Neurotic Was in German I could read it back then. I cannot find an English language copy. Hitler had the author killed and all his works burned. The premise was all sexuality exists on a continuum. A gay person is neurotic because they chose to opt for a life that can bring anguish as opposed to one that rewards. I am not saying I agree I just found it interesting. I am not afraid of thinking for myself.
I have looked up this book so many times never a hit. I just binged it and there it was
