A little time today, so:

The Stupid Party clowns who helped Eric Holder screw things up this badly:
...remember the actions of all 19 Republican senators who ignored Holder's abominable career as a political fixer and confirmed him. "I found Mr. Holder to be a good listener, which is an important prerequisite for any good leader," Missouri GOP Sen. Kit Bond explained in support of the nomination. "I believe him when he says that he's willing to take good ideas from wherever they come."

In addition to Hatch and Bond, the other 17 Senate Republicans who helped put Holder in place at the Justice Department were: Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., Bob Bennett, R-Utah, Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., Susan Collins, R-Maine, Bob Corker, R-Tenn., Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, Judd Gregg, R-N.H., Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., Richard Lugar, R-Ind., John McCain, R-Ariz., Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, Arlen Specter, R-Pa., and George Voinovich, R-Ohio.



Because the IRS can't screw with your life enough now.


Anti-self-defense gun bigots trying to change Michigan law, including a former Governor wearing a effing hoodie to show her solidarity with a possible drug-using criminal. Or something.


Speaking of the Martin-Zimmerman incident, prosecutor Angela Corey, from the looks of this, should be not only removed from this, but disbarred.
Even worse, it appears the prosecution doctored the transcript of Mrs. Zimmerman’s testimony in the bond hearing to make the perjury charge.

Q: How much money is in that website right now? How much money as a result of that website was —

A: Currently, I do not know.

Q: Who would know that?

A: That would be my brother-in-law.

Q: And is he — I know he’s not in the same room as you, but is he available so we can speak to him, too, or the Court can inquire through the State or the Defense?

A: I’m sure that we could probably get him on the phone.

Q: Okay. So he’s not there now.

A: No, he is not, sir.

Q: Do you have any estimate as to how much money has already been obtained or collected?

A: I do not.

Corey’s team stripped out the original text in bold in order to make their perjury argument. I’ll be very surprised if this doesn’t come back to bite Corey savagely.

I would damn well hope so.


First I'd heard of this; apparently the Fort Pierce Police Department needs some serious attitude-adjustment training, and qualified immunity removed. From cops and prosecutors both.


And now I've got to go back out and do more catchup
