• In a Bold Move, Texas Announces Plans to Eliminate CSCOPE Curriculum Program from Its Schools

  May 20, 2013 at 1:01pm

  I hope this good news doesn’t open the door for something even more nefarious.
  ““One size does not fit all. Those lessons, every lesson, needs to be developed on a local level,” he added. How local? Like mosque/masjid level? Will maps of the middle east erase Israel without oversight from Texas boards? Will lesson plans which teach ‘people-of-the-book’ are apes and pigs be acceptable? My concern is the political pendulum swings to extremes.

• Robert Gates: I Would Have Made the Same Decisions During Benghazi Attack

  Gates is a card carrying member of the “winning hearts and minds” boondoggle. Stupid is as stupid does.

• ‘Lies and Deceit’: See What the Families of the SEAL Team 6 Members Slain in Chopper Crash Alleged at Their Press Conference

  May 9, 2013 at 9:03pm

  Father of Michael Strange also pointed out that he requested a copy of his son’s autopsy report which arrived with a disc including at least one photo of his dead son visibly holding a weapon as if killed in action. Mr. Strange is convinced his son was not burned beyond recognition and it was unnecessary to ‘cremate’ his remains against his wishes. It is disturbing that the Cambridge funeral home refused to cremate Islamic terrorist Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s carcus to respect his family’s wishes, yet here we have military brass refusing to extend the same courtesy to our soldiers. Disgusting. Spit.

• Bizarre Detail Discovered in Case Surrounding 3 Women Found Alive Nearly 10 Years After Disappearing

  May 7, 2013 at 5:17pm

  This “Castro” family was one very disfunctional unit – well beyond the kidnapped girls.

  http://tinyurl.com/d3fjoz3
  Ariel Castro had been accused of attacking his former wife Quote: “accused of attacking his former wife, GRIMILDA FIGUEROA . . . suffered two broken noses, broken ribs, a knocked-out tooth, a blood clot on the brain and two dislocated shoulders, according to a
  2005 filing. . .Her attorney requested that a judge “keep [Castro] from threatening to kill [Figueroa].’’

  Well, now we learn, Ariel Castro’s wife, http://tinyurl.com/ceg9h9z
  48 year old, GRIMILDA FIGUEROA died April 25, 2012.

  Their daughter, http://tinyurl.com/cj9b4y7 ,
  20 year old, Emily L. Castro was accused of slashing her 11-month-old daughter’s throat.

  Quote: “Allen County prosecutors contend Castro tried to kill the baby because she and
  the baby’s father had ended their relationship the day before.”

  “She didn’t think straight,” said Castro’s mother, GRIMILDA FIGUEROA. “She
  would think things about people that wasn’t true, paranoid.”

• NY Times: Boston Bombing Suspects Originally Planned Deadly Fourth of July Attacks

  May 2, 2013 at 11:23pm

  Abdul Rahman Ali Al-Harbi, that Saudi student (aka person-of-interest-#1) had a facebook page photo album featuring evening ‘fireworks’ images @ Boston Harbor(?). The Brothers Tsarnaev used fireworks components for their pressure cooker bombs detonated during the Boston 2013 marathon. Now we learn that the Brothers Tsarnaev also planned another terror/suicide event for the 4th of July. Fireworks? 4th of July? Coincidence?

• TheBlaze Extends Its Reach, Announces TV Deal With Tri-State (NY, NJ, CT) Cable Provider

  In reply to Wakeupandsmellthepatriots.

  This is a welcome surprise given the canned response I received just last month:
  Quote: “Thank you for your inquiry regarding the availability of carrying GBTV on our cable system. “…”While we do make every attempt to accommodate programming requests to satisfy customers’ preferences, factors such as technical limitations, contractual obligations with programmers and federal government regulations may limit our ability to honor each request that we receive. While GBTV may not be added at this time, there is a possibility it may be added in the future. “…”

• Update: Saudi Embassy Says It Never Warned U.S. Gov’t About Boston Bombing Suspect

  May 1, 2013 at 4:01pm

  Funny how the Russians came out publicly with their information about Tamerlan more than a week ago, yet today we are learning about the Saudi’s simultaneous release/retraction of their supposed intel about Tamerlan. Let’s see, things didn’t look so good for the Saudi’s in the early investigative hours of the 2013 Boston Marathon Bombing, given the identity of ‘person-of-interest-#1′. Why sit on this intel, unless they didn’t sit on it at all. Rather is the House of Saud politically strong arming this administration for protections Obama is finding increasingly difficult to provide? This all stinks to high heaven of j-i-h-a-d.

• Is Congress Trying to Exempt Itself From Obamacare? The Interesting Details

  April 25, 2013 at 2:27pm

  Let me turn this scenario around a bit. What kind of health care treatment do all these political exemptees (exempted from obamacare) think they will get from non-exempted health care employees who already question whether they will remain in the health care industry? Doctors are retiring early, in droves. Nurse practioners and Physicians Assistants are currently filling many of those gaps but they are well aware and already fed up with federal interventions. As these young pseudo docs are forced to limit treatment options to ailing loved ones, at the expense of those who come in politically exempted from such limitations – who, in their right mind would want to expose their ‘exemption’ status when medically vulnerable – just saying

• ‘Armed and Dangerous’: Beck’s Latest Revelations on Saudi National Once a ‘Person of Interest’ in Boston Bombings

  In reply to dublinthewagons.

  Recall that a week ago today, simultaneous bomb threats to the hospital where this ‘person-of-interest’ received treatment and the federal court house created quite a distraction to coincide with CNN’s breaking reports of imminent arrest and hearing.

• Teen Featured in NY Post’s Boston Bombing Story Speaks Out: I’m Not the Bomber (But There Is a Twist)

  Begs the question, what were these two carrying in those big bags if they were there as spectators? Have either of these two individuals shown the bags to authorities to prove the bags remain intact and contain mundane articles (perhaps for gym)? Inquiring minds want to know, given the speculation about the type of bag used to conceal each of the pressure cooker incendiary devices.
