Today is Tuesday, April 14, 2015. On This day one year ago the big news of the shooting at the Kansas City Jewish center by Frazier Glenn Cross also known as Frazier Glenn Miller. Every time you read about this crime he is identified as a white supremacist and a member of the KKK my question on that day was if he was a white supremacist why was he shooting white people? Indeed, the white supremacist organization had kicked him out because he ratted them out in order to get a reduced sentence for weapons violations. At that time I figured that the reports of also being a neonazi were true if he was going after Jewish people. Well it turns out that he was in fact a neonazi as well as a white supremacist. However he was acting in his neonazi persona for the shooting at the Jewish center, even screaming heil Hitler when he was arrested. So why then do ALL of the news reports harp on his white racist background and downplay or not mention at all his Nazi background? The ironic thing is that the three people he killed, including one child were all Christians. The most recent development in that case is that after a lot of foot dragging a judge has ordered him "fit to stand trial".

Yes, he will veto it. This kind of agreement is not a deal, it is a treaty and what the Senate should be doing is suing and seeking an injunction to get a ruling on the difference between a deal and a treaty. I view this as grandstanding since they have to know the lawless asshole will veto anything sent to him that isn't veto proof. http://fxn.ws/1NB0ZSG Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:22 AM (wlDny) 4 Jordan's King Abdullah II said Monday that airstrikes have increased inside Syria and Iraq following the murder of a Jordanian pilot burned to death earlier this year by Islamic State terrorists. I am glad that there are a few people over there taking action. Primarily this has been Jordan and Egypt. Iraq has been fighting back against them but their efforts have been largely unsuccessful. http://fxn.ws/1CIxHWt Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:22 AM (wlDny) 5 Navistar (formerly International Harvester) is now making a version of their pickup truck to be used as a military vehicle. Just what the enterprising suburban family needs for that future commute to Wallymart to get past the lawless wildings that the more urban mayors allow to occur with impunity. http://fxn.ws/1apQ0sF Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:22 AM (wlDny) 6 The UN will vote on an arms embargo for the Yemen rebels. Pooty Poot will likely vote against it. I look at this as a case of it doesn't matter whether it passes or not. These UN arms embargoes are worthless. http://fxn.ws/1FJsMfr Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:22 AM (wlDny) 7 Those Blackwater security guards who were hung out to dry in the shooting in Baghdad all got long sentences. They claim they were fired upon first others say not. I suspect anything the current administration, including the upper leadership of the Army, says. http://fxn.ws/1GFh7yq Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:23 AM (wlDny) 8 The FDA has issued a warning on a dietary supplement said to contain anabolic steroids. They say it can cause liver damage. Do I believe this? Maybe about 5% worth, as I said I don't believe anything out of Washington anymore. Anybody who takes this kind of crap should know they are taking big chances anyway though. http://fxn.ws/1O9pH7y Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:23 AM (wlDny) 9 We had a shooting at a NC community college yesterday. Maj. Tom Effler of the Wayne County Sheriff's Office announced that Kenneth Stancil, a bald, white male with a tattoo over his left eye, is considered a person of interest. Stancil was last seen wearing a blue shirt and light-colored pants, and is no longer on campus. I see they have no problem identifying the race of a perp if he is white. http://fxn.ws/1yq4zIr Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:23 AM (wlDny) 10 A two year old toddler ran out into the road in Milwaukee and was struck by a van. The driver stopped as required and somebody shot him and a 15 year old nearby (probably spray and pray victim). The shooter has not been identified because of "omerta" in black neighborhoods. http://fxn.ws/1CJeKTm Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:23 AM (wlDny) 11 Republicans in the CO Senate are taking aim at Democrat passed gun control laws in CO. Since the commie gun grabbers still hold the house there it is not likely they will get these through. CO used to be a reliably red state. Due to migration of locusts from NY and CA who abandoned their States after screwing them up, CO is slowly being turned into another blue State. http://fxn.ws/1aN5bwz Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:24 AM (wlDny) 12 Another white deputy shoots a black perp this time in OK. This was an undercover sting operation involving the sale of an "illegal" gun. The deputy was a 73 year old "reserve" deputy participating in the operation. The perp ran and one deputy tackled him and as the struggle started the reserve deputy evidently went to pull his stun gun and instead pulled his pistol instead. I suspect that the race baiters will be out in force. The shooter has been charged with negligent homicide. http://fxn.ws/1O9rHg8 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:24 AM (wlDny) 13 An entire family was killed in WA State when a chunk of concrete fell from construction on an overpass and struck their vehicle. A lot of questions here but mainly why were they allowing traffic beneath the area of construction? http://fxn.ws/1criown Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:24 AM (wlDny) 14 The mother who dropped her toddler in to the cheetah pit at the Cleveland Zoo will be charged with child endangerment. Unbelievably she was holding one other child in her arms when she dangled the toddler over the fence. She is lucky that Darwin did not exert his hand in this one. One wonders what would have happened with the CPS if this had been in that town in MD? http://fxn.ws/1aKbIbp Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:24 AM (wlDny) 15 Greece is getting ready to stiff the IMF on loans. Guess who backs most of those IMF loans. This is one disaster from the Breton Woods conference that needs to be remedied. http://on.ft.com/1zclBVi Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:24 AM (wlDny) 16 The VA continues to go after whistle blowers even though that is illegal. They know that Holder is not prosecuting anybody except "white privileged" people who are not in government service. http://bit.ly/1zaF5tv Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:25 AM (wlDny) 17 Evidently you can not kill nuisance squirrels with a BB gun in Melbourne, FL. Cops told man he must hire a "professional" service. Just another reason to never live inside the city limits. http://bit.ly/1I6jUh7 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:25 AM (wlDny) 18 Scankles Scooby Doo van drawing mockery from all over. http://bit.ly/1aq0vMP Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:25 AM (wlDny) 19 Evidently black lives don't matter when it comes to who gets to pump gas for nickels and dimes in Philly. That is unless it's a white who beats the black into a coma. http://bit.ly/1aNgK71 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:26 AM (wlDny) 20 Read the latest disclosure from the Lerner e-mails and ask why she has not been indicted? This will make your blood boil because it is clear evidence of multiple felonies being committed. Holder should be impeached and his successor should be warned they are next if they fail to indict this scrunt. http://bit.ly/1DYvHAo Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:26 AM (wlDny) 21 Racist judge in Louisville, KY gives black perp convicted of a home invasion robbery probation and says he is offended by victim's statement that the 3 year little girl in the home was now afraid of black people. Where is the hate crime prosecution from Holder and why has he not even become involved in this case? Oh, he is just a racist as this judge. http://bit.ly/1Hn3uTC Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:26 AM (wlDny) 22 Commie Ferguson agitators are convening in North Charleston now to stir up trouble. I think they are going to find a surprising reception there. SC will not put up with their shit. http://bit.ly/1IZlotK Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:26 AM (wlDny) 23 Guess what other Democrap besides DeCommio is not endorsing Scankles? You guessed it, her arch enemy Obama. http://bit.ly/1DdNBM4 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:27 AM (wlDny) 24 As I said, the knives are out. Even MSNBC is hitting her now. http://bit.ly/1I7nU15 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:27 AM (wlDny) 25 Stanford student running for judicial board questioned about being an evil Joo because she may oppose their anti-Israel policies.

Another foreign policy win for the Choom. http://bit.ly/1FPP9wN Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:27 AM (wlDny) 27 Dr. Ben Carson (R) will make an announcement about his presidential plans on May 4 in his home town of Detroit, Michigan. http://bit.ly/1H2zXy2 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:28 AM (wlDny) 28 BB gives three reasons why Scankles is not Obama. But I disagree with Obama being her appointee. http://bit.ly/1DDkTpr Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:28 AM (wlDny) 29 Morning!

They were able to take quick action on the firing of the cop. http://dailysign.al/1crvFF5 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:29 AM (wlDny) 33 Heritage takes on the new version of No Child being pushed by a coalition of RINOs and Dems. http://dailysign.al/1IHR0r4 Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:29 AM (wlDny) 34 Ramirez http://bit.ly/1IZottR Posted by: Vic We Have No Party at April 14, 2015 06:29 AM (wlDny) 35 The Daily Deals http://amzn.to/1H2D5tL That's it for today folks.

Posted by: Conservative Crank at April 14, 2015 06:31 AM (WUYpW) 39 So now that Putin has sold advanced anti-aircraft missile systems to Iran, he has all but insured that Israel (and perhaps others in the area) will attack Iran that much quicker. As vaunted as Iran's military is, in reality their air defenses aren't all that sophisticated - until now. Posted by: J.J.

Md legislature has put forth a bill reminding the need for purchasers of new guns to submit a fired shell casing for retention by the Maryland State Police. Since the passing of the original Bill requiring them, the State Police have been storing the casings, in their little envelopes in 55 gallon drums, with no system in place to catalog them. Weird things happen when a Democratic state elects a Republican Governor. Posted by: Village Idiot's Apprentice at April 14, 2015 06:35 AM (irGEw) 42 Vic and I are part of a vast conspiracy.

This bill is to remove the existing requirement to submit a shell casing. So...it's a good thing. During family meal at a local Towson restaurant last night, our regular waitress starts a conversation with us. 24 year old female College student who has not taken out student loans, and is working her butt off to stay out of debt. Real nice girl. So she explains to Mrs VIA that she just got done shooting guns for the first time in her life over the week-end, and loved it. Started with boyfriends 22lr, thru a Glock 9mm, to shotgun, and finally his AR-15. She loved shooting them all. She now has plans to go to the range with us as well. Baby steps.

Oh, and they also had better have fire control people stacked up like firewood in a warehouse someplace. It is going to be a high-risk occupation come the day.

I did just buy a book on the history of the Warner Brothers studio, so if I get anything interesting out of it, you'll be the first to know. Instead, how about a story starring the legendary showman George M. Cohan? When Cohan was a very young child, his parents made him take vioin lessons, which he absolutely hated, and dropped the first moment he could. After he'd become a great success, he took his father one day to a very posh restaurant. Winding his way through the tables that day was a violininst, playing fancy solos for the customers. "See, George," joked the elder Cohan, "if you had paid more attention to your violin lessons, it might be you who was playing here now." "So it might," agreed George. "But then, you wouldn't be eating here." There are plenty of pictures of Cohan. But here's James Cagney, as the great showman, surrounded by some luscious beauties in 1942s Yankee Doodle Dandy: http://goo.gl/Tf22mJ Posted by: Mary Poppins' Practically Perfect Piercing at April 14, 2015 07:06 AM (zF6Iw) 74 Baby steps.

I've been carrying for awhile now and this weekend, she found out. Whoa. Crisis. My basic premise is as follows: I'd die to protect you and Tiny Nearsider. You don't think that's irrational. Why, then, is it irrational that I'd kill to protect you? Well. Posted by: Washington Nearsider, Keeper of the Guards at April 14, 2015 07:07 AM (fwARV) 75 Obviously: http://tinyurl.com/lv4598x Russia's delivery of advanced AA system to Iran is direct result of Obama's reach around with Iran. It kills me that people would still rather attribute this umteenth time of giving direct aid to the enemy to incompetence instead of what it is - a planned, purposeful degradation of this country and willful support to the destruction of Israel.

"Found guilty" implies they were tried, defended, and convicted. CPS determined they'd done something undefinable that they think just has to be bad somehow... That's not 'found guilty'.

The US will not provide any meaningful assistance because Nigeria will not adopt LGBT-friendly policies. John Fing Kerry, who by the way served in Vietnam, personally visited to reiterate the point. BTW, the new President, Muhammedu Buhari, was a former general elected principally on the issue of going after Boko Haram. Plus he is personally incorruptible (although the people around him, probably not so much -- it is Nigeria, after all). He was the military dictator for a year or so at one point in the 70's before he was thrown out in a coup because he wasn't spreading the wealth around to the right generals. Despite being a Muslim northerner, he got significant support in the Christian south because they believe he means what he says about hunting down the terrorists and killing them.

Yep, at The Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY, early 60s. It's a Moron-friendly story too. The bar owners' college-age kid came in buzzed with a bunch of his friends as the bar was closing. They were hungry but everything had been put away. His mother pointed to the bucket of wings (left over from chicken dinners) bound for the trash and told him to deep-fry them if they were hungry. So they did. Sadly, if you want to order the traditional Buffalo wings, they have to be specified even in Buffalo anymore. Baked wings, (gasp!) BBQ wings, sweet-n-sour wings...none of 'em are the real thing. Real Buffalo wings are deep fried. Health nuts just have to deal. And they are served covered in melted butter and Frank's Hot Sauce. That's it. Until wings became gentrified in the mid-80s, the only part of your order that had to be specified was: hot, medium or mild.

It has defense against knives and guns. No knife fighting though. Yesterday, he was assaulted in our driveway after a "gentleman" in our neighborhood took exception to him having the audacity to turn onto our street while the dude and his wife were casually strolling down the middle of it. This jackass gave my hubby a pseudo headbutt and pushed him. He doesn't know how lucky he is that Mr. Deed kept his head. We were willing to let it go, but as the jerk walked away, he threatened our cars and house. Had to call the cops after that. We didn't press charges, but we will if anything happens to our property. Who knew that walking the neighborhood is now a contact sport. Ten years ago, they would have been scraping that dude off the street. Hubby as mellowed.

Their carriers (and planned carriers) all were designed specifically for V/STOL and would be rendered useless without a new airplane that could operate from them. Combine with a strong Marine need for the same, the budget situation of the late 1990s, and wrapping it all up along with a new "low" fighter for the USAF and NATO it was a convenient solution.

Then the Navy and Air Force can have their stealthy, supersonic F-35 that doesn't look like it swallowed a second air intake, improved aerodynamics, and probably still increase the internal weapon pods...but that would make too much sense and deny the brass their multi-purpose boner vanity project...

Could you get it approved, funded, saved from the budget axe? Big part of the reason they threw in with the F-35. The Marines were succesful with the Harrier in large part because it was "off the shelf" design not terribly expensive. The Navy could jump in at any time and say "they don't their own airplanes, give us their money and we'll give them close air support." Marines are afraid of that.

Posted by: @votermom at April 14, 2015 08:37 AM (cbfNE) 265 There are factors on how fast any ship can go besides the power available in their engine rooms be it nuclear, gas turbine, or fuel oil. The biggest one is how long since it has had it's hull scraped and repainted. All that crud will act as a lot of friction that must be overcome. And no matter how much power you have available there is a real limit to how much shaft torque you can apply before you endanger a broken shaft accident which would be a major catastrophe.

The current Ocean is a landing platform-helicopter, and is currently the only British ship that is even remotely capable of handling VSTOL aircraft as the Invincible class has been decommissioned and 2 of the 3 ships of the class have been already broken up. The forthcoming Queen Elizabeth class is big enough to handle standard carrier-based aircraft, but as constructed, it lacks the arresting gear required to recover them.

His excuse was that we had to get "something" or Obama would go with executive amnesty. One of these sites touted how he was right about that. I throw the BS flag. What difference is there between executive amnesty which is illegal and legal amnesty which is not. Answer: Executive amnesty can be halted with an honest court and it can rolled back in the future if we ever get a Republican President with balls.

It gets worse. Big news on local tv this morning, some NJ 3rd grade teacher had her class write get-well cards to Mumia -- the black dude who shot a white cop at point-blank range. So tv interviews a bunch of AA's. They were fine with the teacher doing that. They all spoke in something which remotely resembled English.

It's a very nice high school. No. 2 decided that their writing students are thoroughly unserious and he will go elsewhere. So I told my mother this story and she flipped out. "Do you know who their commencement speaker was last year?" I did not. "They played a recording of Mumia".
