Citizenship Needs an Owner’s Manual

Helen is the prime mover behind many effective projects over the years, including the impressive Leadership Program of the Rockies. Her latest is the Lens of Liberty Citizenship Initiative , “a series of projects and programs to educate Americans on what it means to be a United States citizen, and on the responsibilities that come with citizenship.”

It’s nothing like the nondescript mush you hear from groups that purposefully steer clear of any principled message—you know, the ones that go no deeper than tell you to vote (for anybody, so long as you vote), write your congressman, tour the capitol building and attend school board meetings. Everything Helen’s organization produces is aimed at getting Americans to see all issues through the “lens of liberty” and then equipping them to act on behalf of their vanishing freedoms.
 
This weekend’s advancement of Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen to the second-round of the French presidential election represents a setback to the French political establishment. For the first time in the 60 years of the country’s Fifth Republic, neither of its two establishment political parties, the Republicans and the Socialists, will have a representative in the second-round run off scheduled for May 7.

This makes it all too likely that whoever becomes France’s next president will have to work with a parliament (to be elected in June) that is of a very different political complexion from themselves.--Desmond Lachman
 
Muddy Maxine Waters: What a riot

By Michelle Malkin • April 26, 2017 07:33 AM

Are you freaking kidding me? Thirteen-term Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Beltway barnacle permanently affixed to USS Government, is now the fresh-faced “rock star” of the Democratic Party.

“Auntie Maxine” is stoking the resistance, inspiring millenials, combating hate, crusading against corruption and invoking the counterinsurgent cry to “stay woke!”

I do not have enough guffaws to give.

This new spokesmodel for civility and clean government has stoked division and exploited taxpayers for decades.

Change agent? She has served on the Democratic National Committee since 1980 — when the Atari 2600 was cutting-edge, Kim Kardashian was a newborn, and Al Franken was hamming it up on “Saturday Night Live.”

Waters has spent 37 years in office — many of those years as head of the Congressional Black Caucus — promising to make life better for constituents in economically ravaged South Central Los Angeles.

What do the denizens of her district have to show for it? Staggering levels of persistent unemployment, poverty and gang violence as the 25th anniversary of the L.A. riots looms this coming weekend.
 
This is your your hero Wez.
What a shit stain on our great country.

Ex prez back in public eye leading by example, Obama-style

The ex-prez is still leading by example in his own curious way:

That Hillary-esque shot & chaser made for a funny juxtaposition, but CNN was too busy blushing to take much notice in anything like that:

Need a minute alone, CNN?

I think a better choice would be my wife - she is not a Mexican, but she is an immigrant, and served almost a decade on the San Diego Human Rights Commission Board - so she is sort of an official local expert on racism.
Don't you mean Human Relations Commission Board?

Fox News anchor Kelly Wright joins lawsuit against network alleging racial discrimination
Updated | Kelly Wright, a black reporter and anchor who has worked at Fox News since 2003 has joined a racial discrimination lawsuit against the channel claiming that he was “effectively sidelined” from major shows and asked to perform “the role of a ‘Jim Crow’ – the racist caricature of a Black entertainer” for whom the American segregation laws were named.

The class-action lawsuit, filed Tuesday in State Supreme Court in the Bronx, expands on a complaint filed last month by two black women, Tichaona Brown and Tabrese Wright, a former payroll manager and current accounting employee at Fox News, respectively. In total, 11 plaintiffs—all people of color—have their names attached to the updated complaint, which accuses the network of “abhorrent, intolerable,unlawful and hostile racial discrimination.”

The complaint includes allegations against Fox News host Bill O’Reilly, who parted ways with the network on April 19 after a series of sexual harassment accusations, which he denies. According to the complaint, O’Reilly refused to air one of Kelly Wright’s segments because it presented black Americans in “too positive” a light.

Anyone buying this shit?
