David Limbaugh: Regulators are wasting time regulating Christmas
It's that time of year when we are reminded just how indebted we are to the left's mega-tolerant cultural warriors. Annually, they jolt us out of our complacency to notice how imposing, intolerant and dangerous Christmas and Christianity are. If it weren't for these valiant Soldiers, this disturbing proliferation of Christmas celebrations and other Christian symbols would proceed unabated. Each year, the examples are too voluminous to document exhaustively, but permit me to share a few highligh...

Al Sharpton Working with FCC to Shut Up Rush Limbaugh and Others
Here’s audio of Al Sharpton talking to Tom Joyner (lib talker?) about how he’s working with the FCC to haul Rush Limbaugh and others to make them explain how they justify using public airwaves to offend people. Basically, he’s accusing Rush of being a Racist, and wants the FCC to shut him up. “Free Speech for me but not for thee.” Video below the fold. (Note: Video plays automatically) Flashback: This is the same Al Sharpton who shouted “punk faggot” a...

No, Haley Barbour is Not a Racist
Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour is being accused of being some sort of Jim Crow Racist for a comment he made during an interview with the Weekly Standard. “Because the business community wouldn’t stand for it,” he said. “You heard of the Citizens Councils? Up north they think it was like the KKK. Where I come from it was an organization of town leaders. . . .” You’ll have to follow the link above for the full quote. And if you read the entire article, you’ll no

NPR progressive hag Nina Totenberg I Was At Forgive the Expression a Christmas Party
NPR progressive hag Nina Totenberg - ‘I Was At - Forgive the Expression - a Christmas Party…’ I wonder if NPR will fire this hag for making a statement as outrageous as this? They fired Juan Williams for having in opinion by saying he gets nervous on a plane if someone is dressed in “Muslim garb.” This past weekend on “Inside Washington”, Nina Totenberg made the comment: I want to say one thing about the Budget that didn’t get passed, the o

NPR Reporter Nina Totenberg Ashamed to Say She was at a Christmas Party I was at forgive the expression a Christmas Party
What is wrong with Liberals, have they completely lost their minds and their souls. They certainly have lost their religion. From Newsbusters comes the following story of an NPR reporter Nina Totenberg interjected on Inside Washington, “I was at - forgive the expression - a Christmas Party.” What? Why would she have to forgive the expression? Are NPR liberals now openly apologizing for dare referencing the word “Christmas” in public. Are we to understand that the LEFT n

War On Christmas Resumes? NPRs Nina Totenberg Embarrassed To Say Christmas Party
On Sunday’s Inside Washington, NPR’s Nina Totenberg apologized for using the words “Christmas Party” in a discussion about budgets. It’s unclear why she became as red in the face as the red Christmas flowers behind her when she mistakenly allowed the “offensive” words to escape from her lips. Yet she does regret that no alternative expression was available to describe the party she attended. Maybe in the wake of Juan Williams’ firing, NPR employe...

Nina Totenberg is an idiot
No... really... there's just no getting around it: "I want to say one thing about the Budget that didn't get passed, the Omnibus Bill. You know, we talk a lot about - we just passed this huge Tax Cut in part because business said, you know, we have to plan, we have to know what kind of tax cuts we have. Well, these agencies, including the Defense Department, don't know how much money they've got and for what. And I was at - forgive the expression - a Christmas Party at the Department of Justic...

Nina Totenberg: "I Was -- Forgive the Expression -- At a Christmas Party"
She actually felt the need to literally apologize for using this foul expression. Does anyone think that Nina Totenberg, or anyone in the media or government or academy, would ever say, "I was -- forgive the expression -- at a gay Wedding"? No, of course not; they would never give that such a slight, classifying it as an actual vulgarity. But Christmas? To Nina Totenberg and the alien creatures who have, V-like, infiltrated and captured our key institutions, the word "Christmas" is now on par w...

Vacation's All She Ever Wanted
In the Chicago suburb of Berkeley (must be something about the name), a teacher wants some time off. Safoorah Khan teaches middle school, and she is a Muslim. She wants to take three weeks of unpaid leave in the middle of the school year to fulfill her religious duty to make the Hajj. The School District said no, it would be too inconveniencing. So she's suing. The Hajj is one of the obligations put upon every Muslim. It is one of the biggies. According to Wikipedia, "The Hajj is the annual pi...

Manchin stands by skirting votes
Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) stands by his decision to miss voting on the Repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell” and the Immigration Reform bill, the DREAM Act – two major Democratic-backed pieces of Legislation. This weekend the West Virginia Democrat’s office released a statement that he could not attend the rare Saturday session because of a “holiday gathering” planned “over a year ago with all their Children and Grandchildren.” Continu...
