Charlie Thai's article about Aaron Zwahlen's choosing to be a 2-year missionary for the Mormon church instead of playing football features a strange image.
I guess Thai is pretty upset about it?

5/18/13NPR Spins Conservative Letter To GOP: "Don't Legislate, Focus On Scandals"
NPR- "In a letter this week to the leaders, Heritage Action CEO Michael Needham says "outrage over Benghazi" and the IRS targeting of Tea Party groups has "rightly focused the nation's attention squarely on the actions of the Obama administration." The letter goes on to say the House must continue holding oversight hearings, "but it would be imprudent to do anything that shifts the focus from the Obama administration to the ideological differences within the House Republican Conference." That isn't quite what the letter says. It actually says only the oversight committee should deal with the scandals in the House: "It is incumbent upon the House of Representatives to conduct oversight hearings on those actions, but it would be imprudent to do anything that shifts the focus from the Obama administration to the ideological differences within the House Republican Conference." So who does the letter refer to when it says don't "do anything that shifts the focus"? Again NPR snipped off an important part of the letter: NPR- "Legislation such as the Internet sales tax or the FAARM Act which contains nearly $800 billion in food stamp spending, would give the press a reason to shift their attention away from the failures of the Obama administration to write another 'circular firing squad' article." The media!! This conservative letter to the GOP didn't tell them focus on scandals, as NPR reported. It advised them not to shift media focus by raising taxes. NPR falsely calls the opposition to a new federal internet tax and farm bill: "Don't legislate." The new internet tax would hurt the middle class, who most frequently make purchases over the internet. And the Senate's farm bill has twice the spending that the House farm bill would have. NPR doesn't mention that. Conservative groups obviously obviously don't want higher taxes. That's all this letter was saying. NPR lies as they report that with regards to the Senate farm bill, the "Senate is working through it now and is likely to pass it soon." Actually it already passed 3 days ago, and the House approved its own version.

4/2/13Associated Press No Longer "Sanctions" Term "Illegal Immigrant"The double-think dictionary has been updated... (http://blog.ap.org) "The Stylebook no longer sanctions the term “illegal immigrant” or the use of “illegal” to describe a person. Instead, it tells users that “illegal” should describe only an action, such as living in or immigrating to a country illegally... The Associated Press "stylebook" is exactly like the new-speak dictionary described in the futuristic book 1984. "The state wanted to destroy every idea that conflicted with Ingsoc (English Socialism). The concepts of freedom, liberty, love, privacy, and democracy went against basic party principles, and therefore, had to be stamped out. And, since these concepts were becoming non-existent, there was no longer any need to have words to describe them. By destroying the words themselves, the state would be able to destroy the concepts they represented." (http://www.newspeakdictionary.com)

2/14/13Associated Press Says Dorner's 'Mistake' Was Tying Up Hostages Instead Of...AP- "He styled himself as a Rambo-like guerrilla, someone trained to outwit and outshoot the police at every turn, and while Christopher Dorner left no doubt he could be unforgivingly violent, when it came to keeping ahead of the law during his deadly rampage, he made one gaffe after another. AP doesn't flatly say that Dorner should have killed them instead, but they hint at it. His "gaffe" was not being "unforgivingly violent" enough? AP reports that Dorner was successful earlier because he killed a couple: AP- "The manhunt, one of the largest in recent memory, began last week after Dorner was linked to the killings of a former Los Angeles police captain's daughter and her fiance. Does any sane-minded person think that Chris Dorner's 'mistake' was leaving innocent bystanders bound up instead of murdered? AP/Yahoo.com has really gone over the edge.

1/30/13Yahoo spins death of inauguration performer into gun control debateUPDATE: Yahoo now mentions in their article that the performer was "gunned down" at a Chicago park. Yahoo-This Week "As Congress holds a much-anticipated hearing on gun control, there was a disturbing reminder that gun violence in America never takes a break.... Since the school massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, in December, more than 1,400 people have been killed in gun violence across the country." Yahoo forgets to mention that the shooting happened in Chicago. They say the victim was from Chicago but doesn't mention she was shot in Chicago. Chicago happens to have one of the nation's strictest gun control laws. Gun shops are banned, there are no shooting ranges, assault weapons are banned. Hand-guns were banned until the Supreme Court overruled the law. Despite their strict bans, Chicago is one of the most deadly places in the country with staggering shooting rates. But the media still holds the city up as a reason why we need more gun control... if they mention the city at all!

1/23/13Reuters Hypes Chris Christie As 'Heavy Favorite' In Poll
Reuters- "Christie, a Republican who is often mentioned as a potential presidential contender in 2016, has seen his popularity skyrocket since superstorm Sandy ripped through the state last fall. The poll is only of New Jersey voters regarding his governorship, but Reuters insists that it shows a rebuke of Republicans, broad support of Barack Obama, and possibilities of a presidential run. Reuters doesn't mention any polls about 2013 Republican presidential contenders.
