COD MW2 Nuke Fail Kid Starts Crying

Senator Elizabeth Warren Speaks Up For ProgressivismJuly 22, 2014 SPECIAL Good for her! Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is letting us know where she stands. There's no oily evasiveness for her - or at least there's less than we usually get from politicians. Here are Warren's 11 tenets of today's progressivism, outlined in a July 18 speech before Netroots Nation. Below each tenet are a few questions for her. 1. "We believe that Wall Street needs stronger rules and tougher enforcement, and we're willing to fight for it." Will you fight to end government bailouts? How will you end them if Wall Street is operated as a subsidiary of Washington? How will you end them if Washington needs big Wall Street firms to buy its bonds with money created by Washington? The real problem here is that government control, tough or not, is destroying the market's own internal discipline. Markets aren't just about profits. They are also about bankruptcy. Wall Street firms must be allowed to fail. 2. "We believe in science, and that means that we have a responsibility to protect this Earth." So progressivism is backed by science and other political philosophies aren't? People who disagree with you don't care about the Earth? 3. "We believe that the Internet shouldn't be rigged to benefit big corporations, and that means real net neutrality." Rigged to benefit big corporations? No. But are you just benefiting some big corporations at the expense of others? What do you mean by "real net neutrality?" 4. "We believe that no one should work full-time and still live in poverty, and that means raising the minimum wage." What if someone can't get a full-time job, perhaps because of Obamacare? Do they get no help? And how will an increase in the minimum wage help those who can't get any job because of the minimum wage? How will this help teenagers or other young people get their first job? The great progressive President Franklin Roosevelt intervened to keep wages high during the Great Depression. The result was that those who succeeded in keeping their jobs were even better off than before, while millions of others were thrown out of work and had nothing. 5. "We believe that fast-food workers deserve a livable wage, and that means that when they take to the picket line, we are proud to fight alongside them." Hm. How are you "fighting alongside them" other than giving speeches? Are you fighting for the workers or for the unions? And how much money have you received from unions? 6. "We believe that students are entitled to get an education without being crushed by debt." Yes - and then what? Hasn't the Federal student loan program driven up the cost of a college education, leaving many students worse off than before it existed? And why is the Federal government borrowing at a low interest rate and then charging the students a much higher rate? How can it be right to make a profit off the students and then apply it to the Federal budget under a line called "deficit reduction." 7. "We believe that after a lifetime of work, people are entitled to retire with dignity, and that means protecting Social Security, Medicare and pensions." How exactly will we do that? Should we keep borrowing from the Chinese in order to "protect" these programs? What kind of protection is that? 8. "We believe - I can't believe I have to say this in 2014 - we believe in equal pay for equal work." Are progressives the only people you think believe in this? 9. "We believe that equal means equal, and that's true in marriage, it's true in the workplace, it's true in all of America." Except in Federal programs that discriminate in favor of one group over another? If equal is equal, then why are non-unionized companies barred from Federal construction contracts? Other examples could fill the page. 10. "We believe that immigration has made this country strong and vibrant, and that means reform." It may "mean reform," but what does "reform" mean? This is evasive. 11. "And we believe that corporations are not people, that women have a right to their bodies. We will overturn Hobby Lobby and we will fight for it. We will fight for it!" If corporations are not people, is it OK for the Federal government to gag their speech, tell them what they must say or not say, and otherwise deny them any of the protections offered by the bill of rights? Having recited what Warren believes to be the 11 tenets of contemporary progressivism, what does she think that conservatives believe? Here it is: "I got mine. The rest of you are on your own." But is this what conservatives teach? Is this even what markets teach? Do they teach us to be selfish? Or do they teach us that we had better put our selfishness aside and tend to the needs of customers and employees first if we want to be successful? People who run businesses are serving the needs of others. And people who work for the government may be just as selfish as anybody else. Did Warren describe all the tenets of contemporary progressivism? No, she described the ones she wanted to describe. But let's leave it for now with her 11.

Donkey carrying too much weight

The NAACP is holding their 105th annual gathering in Las Vegas, Nevada this week. This year's theme? "All in for justice and equality." And what better venue could there be for fighting against injustice and inequality then a multimillion dollar Las Vegas resort, the lavish Mandalay Bay. After years of rejection, black conservatives were allowed a single booth at the convention this year, but they're still locked out of speaking at the convention. As minimal and restricted as their presence is at the NAACP event, black conservatives are still met with open hostility by NAACP faithful because they fail to toe the Progressive line. Yesterday, conservatives Deneen Borelli, director of outreach at FreedomWorks, CL Bryant, a fellow at FreedomWorks, were harassed in the convention hall just because they are conservatives. source

Russia's top 10 lies about downed Malaysia airliner See alsoGovernment MH17 Russia Ukraine Lies Julia Davis Photography Zoom in Julia DavisLA Homeland Security ExaminerSubscribe Follow: Facebook Twitter Pinterest Linkedin Google Plus July 20, 2014The tragic downing of a Malaysian passenger plane sent Putin's elaborate propaganda machine into overdrive, ultimately causing it to unravel. The evidence points overwhelmingly at the terrorists, whose leaders are Russian citizens, current and former members of the Russian armed forces and FSB. In the past, their presence on the frontlines alongside the terrorists in Ukraine provided valuable advantage to the Russian media outlets. They were typically the first on the scene, filming the footage that would be shown on Russian television in short order. This powerful sword of immediate access to live events finally cut the other way on July 17, 2014. Russian media and the terrorists themselves were caught red-handed in making numerous misrepresentations and outright fabrications, intended to override their own previous admissions. Here is a collection of the most outrageous lies with respect to the shooting down of the Malaysia airliner. 1 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 1The Malaysian airliner was shot down at approximately 17:30 (Moscow time). The wave of coverage commenced with the posting on the social media page of a Russian terrorist Girkin (also known under his pseudonym "Strelkov") at 17:50. Russia's mainstream media routinely uses postings on this page as the primary source for their news stories. In his commentary, Girkin boasted that the terrorists managed to shoot down another Ukrainian plane, specifically mentioning what he believed at the time to be a Ukrainian AN-26 airplane, shot down in the area of Torez. Girkin postured, writing: "We warned you - don't fly in our skies" and followed up his comment with two videos,depicting the aftermath of the crash. A similar message was posted by one of Girkin's cohorts, Pavel Gubarev (also known as the Neo-Nazi Santa Claus). After their closer inspection revealed that the terrorists had, in fact, shot down a civilian airliner, Girkin attempted to debunk his own earlier assertion with a bogus message allegedly broadcast by Ukraine's President, Petro Poroshenko. In a garbled pidgin-Ukrainian (obviously written by someone who doesn't speak the language), with numerous misspellings, President Poroshenko allegedly admitted that Ukrainian military shot down "the terrorist plane." This desperate attempt at subterfuge would fail to impress even the most gullible readers. 2 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 2In another failed attempt to hide his culpability, on July 17, 2014, Girkin claimed that the terrorists did not have any equipment capable of shooting down the aircraft traveling at the altitude of more than 4,000 meters. Only one day earlier, on July 16, 2014, Girkin boasted of the terrorists shooting down a plane that was traveling at an altitude of 6,000 meters. These obvious contradictions are self-explanatory. Tragic events of July 17, 2014, demonstrated that a group of drunken rag-tag bandits, headed by Russian intelligence officers and members of the military, should not be entrusted with weapons of any caliber, much less anti-aircraft missile systems. 3 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 3One of the most bizarre exertions, blaming the Ukrainian military for allegedly shooting down the Malaysian airliner, was based on a claim that this was an attempt to murder Russian President, Vladimir Putin. Networks reported that on July 17, 2014, the presidential plane took quite a bizarre round-about route across Ukraine, on its way from Warsaw, Poland to Moscow, Russia. It was reported by Russia Today (more than once), Komsomolskaya Pravda and a number of other Russian mainstream media outlets. Russian aviation sources assert that Putin's airplane never flies through Ukrainian airspace (particularly since the time Russia started fomenting unrest in the East of Ukraine this year). 4 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 4Russian media networks proudly reported that so-called "rebels" again succeeded in shooting down a Ukrainian airplane. This act corresponded with the pattern of terrorist attacks on Ukrainian aircraft. On June 13th, terrorists shot down a Ukrainian transport plane, killing 40 paratroopers and 9 crew members. On June 24th, they downed a Ukrainian helicopter, killing all 9 on board. On July 14th, terrorists shot down a Ukrainian military cargo plane. On July 16th, terrorists downed a Ukrainian fighter jet. These attacks were praised and touted in the Russian mainstream media, as the victories of the imaginary "Novorussia" over the government of Ukraine. LifeNews outlet, whose reporters proudly serve on the frontlines alongside terrorists, rushed to the scene. In the meantime, their network announced on Russian television that another Ukrainian plane was shot down by the "rebels." They also published a corresponding article on their website. Once the network's reporters discovered that the plane shut down by the terrorists was in fact a civil airliner, the article and the video were promptly removed (although still available here, side by side with the conflicting coverage that followed). In the first clip, LifeNews proudly announced that "the rebels" successfully downed another Ukrainian plane, AN-26. In the subsequent coverage (on the same day, with the same host, wearing the same clothes), LifeNews claimed that civilian Malaysian airliner was shot down by the Ukrainian military. It should be noted that since the beginning of this crisis, Ukrainian Air Force has not fired a single missile, despite several alleged violations of their airspace by Russian aircraft. Since Russian terrorists in Eastern Ukraine do not operate any type of aircraft in the area, there is no plausible explanation for the outrageous speculation that Ukrainian military would suddenly attack an airplane. Furthermore, a professional radar operator would have been able to distinguish between a civilian airliner and military aircraft. 5 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 5Russian mainstream media proudly boasted that the terrorists had in their possession SA-11 missile systems, also known as the Buk-M1 surface-to-air missile system. For example, on June 29, 2014,ITAR-TASS news agency reported that "rebels" gained control of a Buk missile installation. After the system was apparently used to shoot down the Malaysian airliner on July 17, 2014, ITAR-TASS reported that none of the "rebels" in any of the self-proclaimed "republics" in Eastern Ukraine ever had the lethal and sophisticated Buk. Recent intelligence reports reveal that neither one of these stories were correct, since the weaponry used for the attack, along with the crew of operators, was imported from Russia and later returned. 6 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 6"Russia One" television channel and other mainstream media in Russia would have you believe that OSCE has full trust in the "rebels" and has been granted full access to conduct a thorough investigation. In reality, OSCE report complains of "visibly intoxicated and aggressive" terrorists, who have given the investigators very limited access. Journalists on the scene report that victims wallets have been completely emptied, their belongings were looted and corpses ignored, while the terroriststook shameless selfies on-site. 7 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 7The same terrorists who first proudly boasted they had the Buk system, then categorically denied it after shooting down MH17, now say they do have Buk, but it is "broken." It should be noted that the terrorists previously claimed that should Buk malfunction, they could easily fix it up and use it to shoot down planes "like taking candy from a baby."Russian news media gushed about the so-called "rebels" who will "guard the skies" with their new Buk system. Russian Twitter trolls, working in tandem with propagandists and the media, spread "happy news" about repaired Buk being ready for use as of July 14, 2014. 8 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 8Russian mainstream media often relies on unnamed social media users and self-proclaimed experts, without fact-checking any of their claims. Russia Today found someone claiming to be "Carlos," an alleged Spaniard, working as an air traffic controller in Kyiv's international airport, Borispol. Without ever fully identifying himself, "Carlos" Tweeted in Spanish that Ukrainian jets were following the passenger plane and shot it down. Numerous prominent news outlets picked up this ridiculous story, including television channel Russia 24, the Defense Ministry's Zvezda channel, Rossiiskaya Gazeta and Komsomolskaya Pravda. No one found it suspicious that a foreigner would be working in a Ukrainian airport and live-Tweeting ridiculous claims, while not speaking either Russian, Ukrainian or English languages (Russia Today had to interview him in Spanish). Minimal fact-checking would have revealed that Ukrainian authorities do not hire non-citizens of Ukraine as airport dispatchers, or even accept them for training as such. As usual, Russia Today was unperturbed by these minor details. On July 17, 2014 Russia Today acknowledged that the unidentified "Carlos" ran a fake Twitter account, which had been deleted. Two days later, on July 19, 2014, Russia Today again cited "Carlos" as their primary source in another article. 9 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 9Notorious Girkin birthed one of the most outlandish allegations, claiming that all of the passengers on the Malaysia flight were already dead, prior to the plane being shot down. To buttress this allegation, Russian media raised the question of why the passports of the victims appeared to be so clean, as though they were brand new. This red herring may indeed impress some people in Russia, where the passport has to be shown even when you're simply taking out the trash. This approach is drastically different from the West, where the passport is used mainly for international travel. Girkin likely borrowed this twisted tail of "corpses on a plane" from a British TV Series, "Sherlock." Girkin's lame attempt of convincing the world that his group of merry terrorists didn't murder hundreds of innocents, "because they were already dead," only magnifies their obvious culpability. 10 Julia Davis Photography Zoom in 10Russian propaganda is willing to do whatever it takes to sway popular opinion. Mark Sleboda, political analyst for Russia Today, tried to use Ukrainian kindness and compassion to favor Russia. He Tweeted a photograph taken at the makeshift memorial for the victims of MH17 in Kyiv, Ukraine - dishonestly claiming that it depicted Muscovites honoring the victims. While Russia's anti-Ukrainian propaganda alreadyreached unprecedented lows, its media fiasco with respect to the downing of a Malaysian airliner crossed over any remaining boundaries. Suspension of disbelief simply cannot stretch that far. From now on, any reporting by Russian mainstream media or statements by its public officials about Ukraine can be safely filed in the category of "'Hello,' he lied." http://ift.tt/1nN9uXA
