Modesto Press Features "Stop The Mormons" Photo In Article About Football Player

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?

NPR Spins Conservative Letter To GOP: "Don't Legislate, Focus On Scandals"

The government-run National Public Radio desperately sought to deflect attention away from Obama's scandals in their reports. But NPR took their government propaganda further with spin and blatant lies.

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.

Bias Against Margaret Thatcher: 'While In Power'

The simmering hatred for Margaret Thatcher in the media is not easy to miss. But to fully appreciate how hard the media is working to instill hatred in their viewers, consider closely the language in their articles.

The Guardian's recent article about Obama's "low-key" appreciation for Thatcher is an example. The writer seems almost grateful that Obama is "opting" not to attend her funeral, saying there are already many "trappings" of a state funeral.

Something that caught my eye was the article's mention: "while Thatcher was in power." While Thatcher was in power? When is the last time you heard this phrase concerning a prime minister? This is something you would expect to read in a discussion about a dictator or queen.

But this phrase pervades the media. A google search finds over 100,000 such articles. Radical Left-wing media who use this subtle phrase include:

The Guardian
Daily Mail
The Telegraph
BBC News
The Mirror
Huffington Post
Forbes
Vice Magazine

Associated 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...

Is this the best way to describe someone in a country without permission? We believe that it is for now. We also believe more evolution is likely down the road.

Will the new guidance make it harder for writers? Perhaps just a bit at first. But while labels may be more facile, they are not accurate.

I suspect now we will hear from some language lovers who will find other labels in the AP Stylebook. We welcome that engagement. Get in touch at stylebook@ap.org or, if you are an AP Stylebook Online subscriber, through the “Ask the Editor” page.

Change is a part of AP Style because the English language is constantly evolving, enriched by new words, phrases and uses. Our goal always is to use the most precise and accurate words so that the meaning is clear to any reader anywhere."

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)

Associated Press Says Dorner's 'Mistake' Was Tying Up Hostages Instead Of...

This is just sick

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.

The last one — letting one of two people he tied up get loose and call police as he made off in their purple car — tipped authorities he was coming."

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.

Soon after the couple was found shot death near their Orange County condo, authorities linked their killings to a long, rambling rant they say Dorner posted on Facebook vowing to get revenge on the Los Angeles police and their families for ruining his reputation by firing him."

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.

ACLU Shakes Down Utah Town For $11,000 Over Protest 'Rights'

The American Civil Liberties Union was paid $11,000 to settle a lawsuit with a Brigham City, a small town in Utah. The ACLU sued after the city restricted the Main Street Church from holding hateful anti-religious protests in front of a Mormon church. This hate organization has an extensive anti-Mormon mission.

The $11,000 will go to the fascist ACLU.

The hypocrisy of the ACLU is thick. In 2003, several Mormons were arrested for counter-protesting a hate group in Salt Lake City. ACLU representatives and police officers stood with the hate group as they screamed at worshippers through megaphones. Two Mormon men were arrested for trying to retrieve sacred Mormon clothing from the bigots.

Guardian Pressures DC Comics To Drop Orson Scott Card As Superman Writer

The Guardian is at it again.

The radical tabloid has begun a campaign to bully DC Comics for hiring Orson Scott Card to write for a digital Superman strip. They are upset because Orson Scott Card called gay marriage "the end of democracy in America."

And that's about it. They hate Card because he correctly observed that forcing gay marriage diminishes the public's ability to vote on their laws. I mean, that's just common sense, isn't it? Before we even get to the validity of gay marriage, forcing a law and not allowing the public to vote on it diminishes democracy.

The Guardian.co.uk underlines Card's point with an ironic quote from some gay activist: "I feel like they were hoping that no one will notice. It's a free country, and what's important is what we do here." Indeed it a free country, and freedom to express one's opinion without being blacklisted is what is at stake here.

Some unknown Hollywood actor trying to get publicity goes on to compare Orson Scott Card to a white supremacist, though the actor himself is white.

Another irony is that The Guardian is one of the most bigoted and hateful tabloids out there. They are careful to label Card "a prominent member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." Surprised? They blamed the Mormon church for Elizabeth Smart's abduction and rape, lying about Orson Scott Card's religion and claiming that the founder was just as dangerous as Elizabeth Smart's abductor.

Orson Scott Card is actually not anti-gay. He has actually included gay protagonists in his stories and written in support of gay rights. The "Superman fans" who are "up in arms" are nothing more than the usual small group of radical trouble causers, the wrecking crew, and this British tabloid that is trying to make it an issue is a typical Leftist propaganda outlet. Their problem with Card is that he is a conservative Democrat. The gay issue is just a vehicle for their Leftist machinations.

Yahoo spins death of inauguration performer into gun control debate

UPDATE: Yahoo now mentions in their article that the performer was "gunned down" at a Chicago park.

A 15 year old girl who performed at President Obama's inauguration was shot to death in Obama's native Chicago.

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!

Reuters Hypes Chris Christie As 'Heavy Favorite' In Poll

Really?

Reuters/Yahoo uses a fat joke in their headline about the morbidly obese Chris Christie, along with a photo of his pudgy face.

"Heavy favorite" indeed! Christie is the media's favorite for the upcoming presidential elections, and we all know why. Because he gave Barack Obama the boost he needed to win in 2012. He will be just another fall-guy.

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 governor's embrace of President Barack Obama, a Democrat, and his angry rebuke of the Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives for its initial refusal to approve a storm aid package, helped cement his image as an independent-minded executive capable of rising above partisanship for the good of his constituents....

"'Give 'em hell, Chris!' New Jersey voters say about Governor Christopher Christie's attack on House Speaker John Boehner and House Republicans when they delayed the vote on superstorm Sandy relief," said Quinnipiac's Maurice Carroll."

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.

Fox News Compares Gun Control To Ending Slavery

When someone points out that Americans overwhelmingly support their constitutional right to bear arms, Stepford Smith of Fox News angrily blurts out: "If we stuck with the polls though we’d have had slavery alot longer than we did.”
