Planned Unparenthood?
Midterminated?
The managing editor of Townhall Magazine called Diversity Lane “very, very well done.” And Michigan Review described it as “laugh out loud funny.” Why not make this the day you discover the best in conservative comedy today at Diversity Lane?

This comes via Reason.TV:
I have nothing to add, well, maybe this.
Looks like I am not the only one, who is in the sights of the intolerant left.
First off all, let me say, that I get this part here:
New Delhi: The White House will, of course, stay in Washington but the heart of the famous building will move to India when President Barack Obama lands in Mumbai on Saturday.
Communications set-up and nuclear button and majority of the White House staff will be in India accompanying the President on this three-day visit that will cover Mumbai and Delhi.
He will also be protected by a fleet of 34 warships, including an aircraft carrier, which will patrol the sea lanes off the Mumbai coast during his two-day stay there beginning Saturday. The measure has been taken as Mumbai attack in 2008 took place from the sea.
Arrangements have been put in place for emergency evacuation, if needed.
Obama is expected to fly by a helicopter — Marine One — from the city airport to the Indian Navy’s helibase INS Shikra at Colaba in south Mumbai.
Two jets, armed with advanced communication and security systems, and a fleet of over 40 cars will be part of Obama’s convoy.
Around 800 rooms have been booked for the President and his entourage in Taj Hotel and Hyatt.
The President will have a security ring of American elite Secret Service, which are tasked to guard the President, along with National Security Guards (NSG) and personnel from central paramilitary forces and local police in Mumbai and Delhi.
Similar arrangements will be in place in Delhi, with the Air Force One to be kept in all readiness throughout Obama’s stay here from Sunday afternoon to Tuesday morning.
Maurya Hotel, where the President will stay, has already been swarmed by American security personnel and protective measures have been put in place.
Security drills have already been carried out at the hotel as well as Rajghat, where he will visit.
Sources said 13 heavy-lift aircraft with high-tech equipment, three helicopters and 500 US security personnel have arrived in India ahead of Obama’s visit.
The US security has also brought interception and obstruction device, sniffer dogs, rescue gadgets.
Apart from Obama’s Air Force One, a few private luxury jets carrying top American corporate leaders, who are part of Obama’s entourage, are also expected to arrive in India in the next 2-3 days.
All high-rise buildings in the vicinity of Mumbai’s Taj Mahal hotel and Delhi’s Maurya Sheraton hotel, where the US President will stay, are being sanitised and security personnel will be positioned on rooftops to prevent any air-borne attack.
The Ridge area – opposite Delhi’s Maurya Sheraton hotel – has been illuminated by floodlights as part of the heightened security drill.
Okay, let me say this; I get this part here totally. Barack Obama is the President of the United States and it was just a few years ago that Mumbai had a horrible terrorist attack in that Country, so, unlike some of the Conservatives out there. I will not be whining about keeping our President safe.
However, I do believe this here is a just a wee bit much:
Officials in the Indian city of Mumbai (Bombay) have taken extraordinary measures to protect US President Barack Obama ahead of his visit.
In their effort to provide maximum security in the run-up to his visit on Friday, they have removed coconuts which may fall on his head from trees.
All coconuts around the city’s Gandhi museum have now been cut down, an official told the BBC.
Every year in India people are injured or even killed by falling coconuts.
‘Why take a chance?’
Mani Bhavan, where Mahatma Gandhi stayed during his freedom struggle against the British, is among five places the US president is visiting apart from a school, college and hotels attacked by Islamic militants in 2008.
“We told the authorities to remove the dry coconuts from trees near the building. Why take a chance?” Mani Bhavan’s executive secretary, Meghshyam Ajgaonkar, told the BBC.
Must….resist….urge….to….make….bad…joke….must….try….to…..show….restraint…..
I mean, seriously people! What is next? Round up all the chimpanzees, monkeys and apes in the area? For fear someone might be offended? Yeeesh. 🙄
What will be really funny, is if the President asks for a Coconut….to eat.
Hell, if they really wanted to save a bunch of money. They could have just gotten the man a hardhat. President Obama already has experience wearing those:
Others: theblogprof, srael Matzav, theblogprof, Weasel Zippers, JammieWearingFool, JOSHUAPUNDIT, The Jawa Report, Pundit & Pundette and Don Surber
Update: I thought something stunk to high heaven about that warship story! See here (Thanks to AllahPundit)
We might not have won it all. However, we did put a massive stop to the socialist agenda of a one B. Hussein Obama.
Enjoy the video: (H/T HotAir)
The good part, more is coming in 2012.
For what it is worth; what I said on Twitter — I speak for no one, except for myself. I have reasons for feeling the way that I do. It might have to with the fact that Michigan is essentially a failed state with over 30% unemployment and it is not getting any better. Yet, all Democrats can do is mock me for not having a job, and for living with my parents. Such class that them liberal Democrats have. 🙄
What they do not know, is the fact that I am an only child, and that my parents are in the 60’s and really do not want me to just leave them. I mean, the idea that I just sit around here and live off my folks; and do nothing for them. Is a bullshit lie. I do more than my share to help them. It is called the Christian way. Something most Godless liberals know nothing about.
Anyhow, thanks to the godless liberal John Amato for the free traffic. 😀
Heh.
If they think this is going to run me off, they’re crazy. I am going nowhere.
Also, if they want to discuss their own deranged behavior, we’ll discuss that —- otherwise, they all can just fuck off.
My song to them:
It is not pretty either….
I guess for expressing my true feelings about the far socialist left in this country has hit a nerve.

I trust that since you have so completely renounced the teachings of Jesus concerning killing, treatment of others, and forgiveness, you’ll be immediately removing all mentions of religion from your site? After all, you obviously are not a Christian in any sense of the word.
Secondly, I refuse to renounce my position. Feel free to come and get me. I’m a retirted Airboren Ranger, and will happily meet you with the welcome my grandfahters gave to the Nazis back in World War II: A hail of lead and an unmarked grave.

Now I know how Juan Williams and Michelle Malkin feel. 🙄
Hey, I make zero apologies for how I feel about the far socialist left. I would like to think that not all Democrats are like this; but I am really beginning to wonder. Either way,. it does not matter. The left’s agenda is on indefinite hold and will be for the next 3 years. I doubt Obama will run for a second term. I look for the Democrats to get trounced in the 2012 election. This defeat last night was just a warm up.
Anyhow, I thought you all would like to see the venom that the left spews, when someone speaks their mind about the far left in this Country.
Now, before some idiot liberal says it or asks — do I consider what I said to be hate speech? Nope. I reject that term “Hate Speech” entirely. That is a method by the liberal left in this control freedom of speech. I believe that ALL AMERICANS, should be free to say what they want. As long as that speech does not cause mass hysteria or panic. Example: Yelling fire in a theater. However, expressing one’s feelings about a group of political fiends — is not hate speech in my book.
So, put that in your pipe and SMOKE IT liberals! HA! Because you will be waiting a LONG time before you’ll be getting an apology out of me. 
Update: Even more pearls of wisdom from the unhinged left:

Nice message jackass, and nice way to scrub your hateful bullshit. Holocaust fantasies are only for the very sickest assholes on earth – congratulations.
Amazing what kind of stuff your mind gets to when your dick doesn’t work anymore
What is it about liberals and their obsession of my penis? Perhaps my hypothesis of all most of them being godless child molesters is correct? 😯

In this edition of the Reality Report Gary Franchi presents the activist beat down footage initiated by the not so funny writers of the Daily Show. Nina Police breaks down the headlines including midterm elections, the Illinois gubernatorial recall vote, Obama’s recent enemy declarations and a new website that will empower
Americans to take action on the issues. Gary provides a candid sneak preview interview with Sheriff Richard Mack from his new film Enemy of the State Camp FEMA 2. He also presents the guest list for this Friday nights special web-cast of “Late Stream LIVE”. Viewers weigh in on the existence of chemtrails and a new “Enemy of the State” is eternally branded.
(Based on a post by this guy)
We did well….
Read about it Here, Here, Here, Here, Here, Here….
We did well here in Michigan WOW! 😯
My Democratic Party voting Mother and Father are maaaaaad! Woo Wee! 😯 They now refer to the newly elected Republican Governor as “Your Buddy….” sarcastically. I just smile and say, “Blame Granholm!” 😀
I say that to all the Democrats who are ticked off…. Don’t like being defeated? Don’t elect idiots… Just that simple.
Of course, I tend to believe this had something to do with it too. Americans are just not cool with that sort of thuggery…
As for me, I’m going to bed… More blogging and opinion tomorrow…
As usual liberals cannot detect snark.
Perhaps Alan Colmes can try vetting his own damned party.
Do I really think that about liberals? No. 🙄
Why’d I say it? Because I fucking enjoy watching liberals heads explode. 😛 😀
I am pissed off about how Democrats ran Michigan into the ground. Not to mention what they did with the healthcare bill, the bailouts. and the so-called “Stimulus” that utterly failed.
So, yeah, I am a bit pissed; so, fuck ’em if they don’t like it. 😡
I consider it to be a badge of honor to be an object of their rage. 😎
Out With the Garbage!!
Video: (Via Michelle Malkin)
The Washington Examiner has the story:
If you thought negative campaign ads were a problem in this election, perhaps you haven’t spent enough time in Virginia’s 5th district. This video depicts two men unleashing a string of racial epithets at members of Americans for Prosperity, who took the video. While flailing arms and shouting, the two also start yanking signs off of private property and throwing them aside, while saying, “This is public space. I pay taxpayer dollars while y’all to spread racism and bigotry.”
Michelle Malkin Says:
Especially love how he screams “You f**king House nigger white-black bitch!” at a black GOP woman and then turns around and screams “RAAAAACIST!” at her and the rest of the peaceful conservative activists peacefully sitting together in their yard.
I am seriously starting to believe that people like Trent Lott and Strom Thurmond…. were absolutely right. 😀
Countdown to some unhinged Black liberal coming here and calling me a “RAAAACIST!” 🙄
Because you know, like the guy in the video says, if that would have been a Conservative tearing those signs down, they would have been placed in jail in a big ol’ hurry. But, because he is a Democrat and black; he gets away with it. That is how it works anymore. If you are black, you can kill someone and just about get away with it. Just ask Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.
Remember folks, VOTE and end this sort of crap! 😡
With emphases on supposedly:
Christine O’Donnell’s campaign late Thursday night responded to an anonymous Gawker post claiming a drunken encounter with Delaware’s Republican Senate nominee, calling it “sexism and slander.”
“This story is just another example of the sexism and slander that female candidates are forced to deal with — from Secretary [Hillary] Clinton to Gov. [Sarah] Palin to soon-to-be Gov. [Nikki] Haley. Christine’s political opponents have been willing to engage in appalling and baseless attacks — all with the aim of distracting the press from covering the real issues in this race,” O’Donnell Communications Director Doug Sachtleben wrote in a post on Facebook.
via Christine O’Donnell camp rips Gawker ‘slander’ – Andy Barr – POLITICO.com.
What really strikes me as funny, is this. Look what NOW’s President said:
Sexist, misogynist attacks against women have no place in the electoral process, regardless of a particular candidate’s political ideology.
Today the tabloid website Gawker published an anonymous piece titled “I Had A One-Night Stand With Christine O’Donnell” that takes the routine sexual degradation of women candidates to a disgusting new low. NOW repudiates Gawker’s decision to run this piece. It operates as public sexual harassment. And like all sexual harassment, it targets not only O’Donnell, but all women contemplating stepping into the public sphere.
NOW/PAC has proudly endorsed women’s rights champion Chris Coons, O’Donnell’s opponent in the Delaware Senate race, and finds O’Donnell’s political positions dangerous for women. That does not mean it’s acceptable to use slut-shaming against her, or any woman.
NOW has repeatedly called out misogyny against women candidates, and this election season is no different. Let me be honest: I look forward to seeing Christine O’Donnell defeated at the polls, but this kind of sexist attack is an affront to all women, and I won’t stand for it.
Ah, yes, the joys of gender entitlement. So, O’Donnell is entitled to kid glove treatment —- because she is a woman. 🙄
Let me tell you all something, politics is a contact sport and if this woman cannot handle a little rough treatment, she needs to get the hell out of the political arena and quick!
Anyhow, the roundup on this story is located here, go read, if you need a good laugh.
It just strikes me as quite funny that somehow a woman is afford some sort of special privilege in politics, because she is a woman. If she cannot handle smears that this, without whining like a two year old; how is show supposed to handle the problems of Delaware?
Again? Yes, Again.
Blazing Cat Fur has the Story:
About 18 months ago everybody’s favourite Ex-Canadian Human Rights Commission employee Richard Warman launched one of his many, as in very many, SLAPP suits against yours truly for, among other dastardly deeds, linking to the “far-right web site http://www.steynonline.com/“. Sheesh everybody knows Mark Steyn is controversial.
It gets better. I’m also being sued for linking to a web site while specifically referring to “the allegations” against Richard Warman. But what else would you expect from Warman, a man so tone deaf he actually believed he could win the support of both the CJC and B’nai Brith in a hate crime complaint against the JDL, who dared offend him by showing the Geert Wilders film “Fitna”.
Warman is also suing for comments made by multiple readers. In one instance for the heinous crime of calling him a “Bully”. We all know what this SLAPP suit is really all about. Warman is using every lawfare tactic he can to prevent a discussion in the public interest of Section 13 (1) and the CHRC. A discussion in which he must feature prominently.Warman is suing me for $500,000.00 Dollars. A ridiculous amount for an equally ridiculous lawsuit. Nonetheless even nuisance suits such as this must be defended against. To date legal fees have run me about 10K. I’ve covered that from my own pocket. I am now asking for your help. I know times are hard for many of us but if every reader who visited daily were to contribute 5 or 10 dollars then that would go a long way to helping all of us out.
This is your fight too, well except for the lawyer stuff anyway;)

I watched this last night and man was Juan Williams angry. You could see it in his eyes. I could, at least.
Here’s Juan really giving it to his former employer:
Turns out, Juan is not only person angry. Check out these quotes, and be sure to follow the links with them.
One thing is for sure, this story is not going away anytime soon. NPR screwed up in a big way and they are going to pay the price —– big time.
This proves what I have known about this type of liberals, which are the “Saul Alinsky” type of liberals, of whom the “New Left” admired and the “Neo Left” studied and learned from; they believe in freedom of speech —- as long as it does not go around their orthodoxy. The minute you stray away from that orthodoxy, they use every Saul Alinsky tactic in the books.
The sad part is; there are some on right that use these same tactics towards those they disagree with, most likely towards those on the left. But sometimes, it is used against people on the right. I ought to know, it was used against me.
That is what separates me from the Neo-Conservative right; I do not believe in using those tactics — at all for any purpose at all. Because it makes us look no different than the left. Which is why I do not ID myself as a Republican or even a Right Winger. I like to think of myself as a Berry Goldwater or Pat Buchanan type. However, I do have disagreements with some of what the Paleo-Con right says or believes.
I have one thing to say about the dump by Wikileaks of documents related to the War in Iraq.
War —— is pure hell.
I did not agree with the decision to go into Iraq and I always knew —- always — that this stuff would eventually come out.
It does hurt our guys over there now; which is the goal of the rat bastard that is running the site. I loathe him with every fiber of my being.
However, I believe that this should a be lesson to those who are in places of influential power—- that they should think long and hard, the next time they try to persuade a President to go to war with a Country to further your own political agenda or foreign policy vision that you support. Going to war to support a Country with zero standing with the United Nations and who was illegally recognized by a sitting President —- always has disastrous results. You would have thought that these idiots would have learned that lesson during the Vietnam era — but, as they say, old dogs never learn new tricks. 🙄
It is a sad thing, but it was bound to happen — sooner or later.
Go feast your eyes on it; if you have the stomach to read it:
What a week Juan Williams has had! From mild-mannered NPR analyst and Fox News liberal stand-in to multimillionaire full-time Fox News guy, thanks to one dumb comment. Fair warning, Juan: you’re about to throw away your entire career. Needlessly.
Ever heard that little tune, “Everyone’s a Little Bit Racist”? It’s quite true. Even you, Juan. Look, we don’t think you’re any more bigoted than the average person. In the circles in which you run, you’re probably much less bigoted than the average person. But saying that you fear people who look like Muslims is a bigoted statement.
But, really, you don’t have to let that fuck you up! Simply acknowledge what it is, apologize, and move on. You’re a respected black journalist with a long track record of civil rights journalism. (Although not as respected as you were before your Fox News pundit days began). You can overcome one dumb statement. Apologize! Vow to improve your character! Move on. — Read the rest at the liberal rag Gawker.com
Obviously, this liberal douche nozzle never reads anything other than liberal Blogs; because if he had actually read, say, my blog or hotair.com, he would know that Juan Williams is not the only one saying what Juan said on Bill O’Reilly’s show. So, obviously, the only person here that is making the mistake — is this liberal moron Hamilton Nolan. Nolan is, from what I assume; some white liberal elitist, who thinks because he is one of those enlightened liberals, that it gives him the right to tell Juan Williams what to think, feel and say.
This is all, as I have written about many times on this blog; just your typical liberal elite mentality, when it comes to minorities. We saw this with Rick Sanchez; which caused him to go off on an Anti-Semitic rant; and now were are seeing with Juan Williams. It is a fact, that liberals, like this Nolan idiot, are under some sort of delusion that they are entitled to tell Juan Williams how to think, feel and act. The funny thing is, 50 years ago, these same liberal Democrats, were still lynching black men, like Juan. Which is what happened this time — except it did not involve rope and trees; it involved a white woman and her friends at a public-funded media outlet. So, nothing has changed, at all — just the methods — instead of trees and rope — they just fired the man. Luckily for Juan, I would assume.
I know, I know…. At this point, even I am sick of writing about it. The man got fired, and got a nice deal from Fox. But he is not letting this one go; at least not right away. I cannot say that I blame him either. I mean, Liberals are supposed to be the tolerant ones and something like this happens —- it just kills that Meme totally.

Now before anyone says, “Oh, that is just his opinion!” Think again, looks like Mr. Williams is not only one feeling the way he does:
As an Arab-American of Muslim descent, I am not offended by this because in all honesty I have had the same reaction in similar circumstances. In Berlin a couple of years ago, my flight was delayed because, we were told, one of the passengers, who was in a wheelchair, needed extra assistance. When she finally was brought into the waiting area, she was covered from head to toe in traditional Muslim dress and only her eyes were visible. What happened? I grew nervous. I got on the plane just the same, but with trepidation.
Was my response rational? Yes and no.
It was not Muslims in traditional garb who hijacked those planes on 9/11, and it certainly was not Muslim women in veils and wheelchairs. If anything, an Islamist terrorist wants to blend in, not stand out.
However, it was not a traditional sort of terrorist attack I feared in this case, but perhaps something unexpected: a traditional Muslim woman in a veil, confined to a wheelchair, who was loaded with explosives.
That may make me guilty of an overactive imagination, but perhaps not. Not that many years later, a young Muslim on an international flight into Detroit tried to light explosives in his underwear.
I mention all this for one main reason. I grew up surrounded by Islamic culture, went to Islamic events, and was used to seeing women in traditional Muslim clothing, and yet when that woman appeared at the Berlin airport, I was scared.
That’s all Mr. Williams was saying. He didn’t say that they should be removed from the plane, treated differently, or anything close to that. He simply said he got nervous. And for that, he was fired.
The reality is that when Muslims cease to be the main perpetrators of terrorism in the world, such fears about traditional garb are bound to vanish. Until such time, the anxiety will remain. In the long run, it’s what we do with such fears that matters, not that we have them.
But regarding what happened to Mr. Williams, no one should tolerate such intolerant behavior on the part of NPR. This broadcast network is paid for by the American taxpayers, and as such we all have a stake in its decisions.
Anyone who cares about freedom of speech should protest what has been done to this decent and fair man. And even if that were not the case, even if Mr. Williams’ views made him a detestable ogre to most, he still has the right to voice them. For many Americans, NPR’s consistent tilt to the left has caused them to reject it as a viable source of news.
NPR often embodies the very things it claims to stand against: unfairness, narrow-mindedness and reactionary policies.
I ask all Americans of conscience, most particularly those of Arab and/or Muslim descent, to protest the firing of Juan Williams and to demand that public funding to NPR cease until Mr. Williams’s good name has been cleared and he has been rehired (if he still wants to work for this network).
We deserve better from a public radio network funded by taxpayer money.
I have no idea what that man’s politics is, or what party he votes for — but even I cannot argue with that.

You can buy President George W. Bush’s Book here:
Disclosure: A percentage of the purchase cost of this book goes to me, at not additional cost to the customer.
Also, please note; I did not always agree with the decisions that George W. Bush made while he was in office. However, considering what we have now for a President — I have to respect this man. He was, for all of his faults, a leader. Again, I did not agree with everything he did — especially his decision to go to war in Iraq — I also disagree with his idea of exporting democracy to other countries; which is a hallmark of Wilsonian foreign policy. However, I will give the man the respect and honor he does the deserve. That is what separates me from the left — they steadfastly refuse to respect the man and the office. I respect the man and the office; I just do not agree on the policies. I can separate the two, liberals cannot.
Well, there seems to be push back from Juan Williams and his supporters in response to his firing by NPR.

Needless to say, Bill O’Reilly is out for blood….. NPR’s Blood! 😯
Media Bistro has the story:
As we reported early this morning, Juan Williams was fired from his news analyst role at NPR for comments he made on Fox News Channel earlier in the week. Williams, who’s been an FNC contributor for 13 years, was back on the network this morning.
In a taped soundbite during “Happening Now,” Williams explained how his NPR firing went down during a cell phone conversation with the head of news at NPR: “I said, ‘you mean I don’t get the chance to come in and do this eyeball-to-eyeball?’ I’ve been there for more than 10 years.” TVNewser has learned from a Fox insider that SVP of News Michael Clemente conducted the interview.
I would be willing to bet; that the O’Reilly Factor is going to be some majorly hot TV to watch tonight! I’ll be there… 😀

This is unreal and must have broken after I went to bed. Juan Williams who is a contributor at Fox News, was fired from NPR and for what? This:

Guess who stirred the pot? No other than Think Progress and the Huffington Post.
You should also click on the video and go read the comments over at the video site. It will make your stomach turn.
The Story via NYT:
NPR has terminated its contract with Juan Williams, one of its senior news analysts, after he made comments about Muslims on the Fox News Channel.
NPR said in a statement that it gave Mr. Williams notice of his termination on Wednesday night.
So True....
Mr. Williams said he concurred with Mr. O’Reilly.
He continued: “I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.”
Mr. Williams also made reference to the Pakistani immigrant who pleaded guilty this month to trying to plant a car bomb in Times Square. “He said the war with Muslims, America’s war is just beginning, first drop of blood. I don’t think there’s any way to get away from these facts,” Mr. Williams said.
NPR said in its statement that the remarks “were inconsistent with our editorial standards and practices, and undermined his credibility as a news analyst with NPR.”
The public radio organization said it thanked him for many years of service. Mr. Williams did not immediately respond on Wednesday night to an e-mail seeking comment.
Mr. Williams’s contributions on Fox raised eyebrows at NPR in the past. In February 2009, NPR said it had asked that he stop being identified on “The O’Reilly Factor” as a “senior correspondent for NPR,” even though that title was accurate.
Alicia C. Shepard, the NPR ombudswoman, said at the time that Mr. Williams was a “lightning rod” for the public radio organization in part because he “tends to speak one way on NPR and another on Fox.”
Ms. Shepard said she had received 378 listener e-mails in 2008 listing complaints and frustrations about Mr. Williams.
The real sick part is? We fund that intolerance; yes, with our hard earned tax dollars. That is the part that really cheeses me off, NPR is a Government funded enterprise. It is also bastion of liberalism and has been, for years. That needs to stop.
There is a big Memeorandum thread on this one; the reaction is pretty much huge in the Blogosphere. Also at Mediagazer.

The Story via NewsBusters:
“Lean Forward,” MSNBC’s new slogan suggests. The better to stick a shiv in your opponent’s back.
Ethics-averse Rachel Maddow did exactly that on her MSNBC show last night. After disparaging Republican candidates for their gall in criticizing reckless federal spending and government-controlled health care, Maddow made this jaw-dropper of a claim —MADDOW: Yes, this has happened to a smaller degree before. In 1994, in the first mid-term election after the last Democratic president was elected, we got a slate of candidates that included Helen Chenoweth of Idaho and Steve Stockman of Texas. These two were so close to the militia movement in this country that Mr. Stockman actually received advance notice that the Oklahoma City bombing was going to happen.
… and by that, Maddow implies, Stockman consigned 168 innocent people to death. Except that Stockman received no such prior, uh, “notice” (note how Maddow did not say “warning”) , which explains why Maddow neglected to attribute this outlandish assertion to a source, any source.
Problem is, she’d have trouble doing so beyond left-wing fever swamps comparable to MSNBC. A perfunctory search through Google quickly reveals evidence refuting Maddow’s claim.
For example, on April 25, 1995, six days after the destruction of the Murrah federal building, the Dallas Morning News ran this story under the headline, “Fax referring to bombing sent by ex-GOP Texas official, party aide says” —Mr. Stockman on Sunday denied reports that his office passed the fax to the National Rifle Association and failed to give it to the FBI. Yesterday he released a letter to the FBI confirming his version of events.
Mr. Stockman also said that a staff member had given the fax to the NRA without his permission. He said he was considering whether to discipline the aide.
Telephone toll records indicate that the fax was sent about 50 minutes after the bombing, a federal official said.According to the Morning News, a hand-written message on the fax read, “First update. Bldg 7 to 10 floors only. Military people on scene — BATF/FBI. Bomb threat received last week. Perpetrator unknown at this time. Oklahoma.” The machine that sent the fax to Stockman stamped “Wolverine” at the top of the page, the Morning News reported.
That Stockman received the fax after the bombing was also reported in a June 22, 1995 column in the Houston Press by Jim Simmon, titled “God, Guns and Kombucha: Is Steve Stockman a committed crackpot, or just a hapless goofball?”As its headline suggests, this was hardly a puff piece favorable toward Stockman. Nonetheless, Simmon wrote —Contrary to suggestions in some earlier reports, Stockman’s office had received the fax after the bombing and promptly passed it on to the FBI. (Ironically, the initial misunderstanding about the fax was propagated by the National Rifle Association, Stockman’s chief patron.)
I’ll venture a guess that self-proclaimed geek Maddow not only has access to computers, but that those computers are connected to the Internet — leading to all sorts of wondrous possible discoveries (and, alas, inconvenient facts), assuming a person is inclined to look.
This is nothing more than straight up lying on the air; she should be fired, and if MSNBC has an ounce of integrity; they would terminate her employment. However, because I know that network well, I know that nothing will happen.
What really pisses me off about this whole thing, is this:
Maddow’s mention of late congresswoman Helen Chenoweth-Hage is even more gratuitous than her attempt at character assassination of Stockman. Chenoweth and Stockman “were so close to the militia movement,” Maddow says, that he, Stockman, but not she, Chenoweth, received “advance notice” of the bombing. Chenoweth-Hage, killed in a 2006 car accident, is no longer able to defend herself. Maddow didn’t give Stockman the chance.
Slandering dead people, that is the Democratic Party of today. 🙄 Which is why I will never vote for that party; ever again.

I wrote a few days ago about Germany learning the lesson that America would learn one day. Here is more proof that I do know what I am talking about — Via V-DARE:
He was a “wonderful kid.”
“A man of high moral character.”
“There was no reason to fire shots.”
“Senseless.”
“He had a great personality, a warm smile, and …a very generous heart” … except for when he was trying to murder three policemen.
Go read the rest of that. It is some interesting reading. Liberals in the Country have it so backward. Criminals are celebrated, while American Patriots are condemned.
