Jesus Christ Batman! I know, and agree, that cell phone usage while
driving is dangerous. Texting is just fucking stupid. But lets have
at it parents:

What is the one reason you are paying for your kids cell phones?

Hello! Is there intelligent life here?

Re: The Mark Twain Prize Debacle: Another Reason to De-Fund PBS

I watched a small portion. I couldn't help thinking, "huh?"

Her achievements are beyond impressive, but isn't it a little early to
be hanging out with the likes of Richard Pryor, Carl Reiner, Jonathan
Winters, Bill Cosby and George Carlin? Tell ya what though, I'd swap
Whoopi for Robin Williams in a heart beat.

We also got to see that Amy Poeler just ain't that funny without
writers.

Weird. The Mark Twain is big stuff, or at least was.

Fwd: Sec. of Transportation: "We're Looking into Technology to disable cell phones in vehicles"

    What happens if you are in an emergency?

Sec. of Transportation: "We're Looking into Technology to disable cell phones in vehicles"

Big brother is even bigger since Obama took office. Their goal is to turn American into a nanny-state where the government knows all and controls all.
 

Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said using a cell phone while driving is so dangerous that devices may soon be installed in cars to forcibly stop drivers — and potentially anyone else in the vehicle — from using them.

I'm guessing they didn't think about the consequences of jamming cell phone signals. What happens if someone is trapped in their vehicles and can't call 9-1-1?

"There's a lot of technology out there now that can disable phones and we're looking at that," said LaHood on MSNBC. LaHood said the cellphone scramblers were one way, and also stressed the importance of "personal responsibility."

Personal responsibility with the help of Big Brother.

The hosts of Morning Joe pushed the secretary about the possibility of requiring scrambling technology installed in vehicles.

"I think it will be done," said LaHood. "I think the technology is there and I think you're going to see the technology become adaptable in automobiles to disable these cell phones. We need to do a lot more if were going to save lives."

CBC Approves of Clyburn's New Position on the Pelosi Plantation




CBC Approves of Clyburn's New Position on the Pelosi Plantation

The 'back of the bus' face of affirmative action

James Clyburn (D-SC) is officially a 'assistant leader' on the Pelosi plantation. You see, Pelosi didn't want Clyburn to be the number two-man in charge (no doubt it is due to his race) and sided with white bread Steny Hoyer to be her 2nd in command. To make Clyburn happy, Pelosi created an affirmative action post for him.

Now the Congressional Black Caucus is clapping like a bunch of seals over the fact that a black man is now a 'assistant leader.' Imagine if this happened inside the Republican Party. It would be the lead off story on every liberal media network. The liberal double standard continues to keep folks on their plantation.

Politico reports:

The new leadership job created for Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) got strong reviews from some critical members of the Congressional Black Caucus after they met Tuesday evening to discuss the post with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

The exact responsibilities of the post of "assistant leader" -- not to mention its staffing, funding and office allocations -- remain murky, but two high-ranking CBC members said they are satisfied that the position is suitable for Clyburn, who is the highest-ranking African American in Congress.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) said it will include duties as a liaison to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and to the House Appropriations Committee, where Clyburn served before entering House leadership. Clyburn is currently the majority whip, but when the new post was announced by Pelosi, he abandoned a bid to fight Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) for the minority whip position when Republicans take control of the House in January.

The job, reconfigured from the existing position of "assistant to the leader," will be ranked third in the Democratic leadership if the full party membership signs off on Pelosi's plan to create it during a Wednesday meeting.

CBC members had been concerned that Clyburn might not be given duties and resources commensurate with his standing in the party leadership.

CBC Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Texas) said that the job will position Clyburn to continue "helping move the Democratic agenda forward."

Cleaver emphasized his belief that Clyburn should not be viewed as the black representative in the leadership -- stressing that the CBC will continue to speak for the African American community.

"This is not a black position," he said.

That last line is a laugher. Clyburn was given this special job based solely on his race and anyone with an ounce of critical thinking skills knows this. Stay on the plantation CBC.

Fwd: [I-S] Report: Airport security firestorm ignored by Obama, cabinet

Airport security firestorm ignored by Obama, cabinet

·         November 17th, 2010 6:29 am ET

 

Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and the rest of President Barack Obama's cabinet are either evasive or silent about their latest public relations fiasco: invasive security measures at U.S. airports.

It appears that in an effort to protect traveling Americans, while at the same time adhering to the liberal-left orthodoxy, on domestic and international commercial airline flights, new state-of-the-art body-scanners are now in use at airports throughout the nation. These admittedly intrusive devices leave nothing to the imagination when a man or woman is scanned, and should travelers resent being subjected to a full-body scan, they may opt to be "manually" frisked by airport security officers.
 
While Americans are being told that these measures are in place to protect them, Muslims -- both citizens and immigrants -- are demanding to be exempt from such security procedures.
 
"This is being done in recognizing that we all have a collective role in our security and we all know and can recognize that there are threats and risks that have been articulated by those who seek to harm the United States, particularly in the aviation environment. And, so, you know, what we are doing is designed to really be risk based, to be intelligence based, to be layered like I said, when you get to the airport at that screening center, these TSOs (Transportation Security Officers) are really the last line of protection we have for the aircraft and that's the way we're going to evaluate things," said Secretary Napolitano in a news conference on Tuesday.

According to conservative talk host and former attorney Laura Ingraham, when Napolitano was asked by a reporter if Muslim women wearing burqas or hijabs refuse to undergo scanning or frisking, what will Transportation Security Administration personnel do, Napolitano didn't answer, preferring to continue her scripted dialogue on the list of items not permitted on commercial flights such as powders and gels.

When pressed for an answer about Muslims wearing hijabs being scanned or frisked, Napolitano stated simply that "there is will be more to come" from the Homeland Security Department and the TSA.

The issue of the invasion of privacy created by the newly enhanced procedures has been raging for the last few days. Yet, President Barack Obama continues his silence on the issue.

President Obama had ordered Napolitano to conduct security reviews following the attempted terrorist attack on December 25, 2009, including recommendations from the intelligence and security communities.

"The attempted attack on Christmas Day is a powerful illustration that terrorists will go to great lengths to try to defeat the security measures that have been put in place since Sept. 11, 2001,"said Secretary Napolitano.

"These recommendations will strengthen aviation security—at home and abroad—through new partnerships, technology and law enforcement efforts," she said at the time.
 

Secretary Napolitano provided the following recommendations:
 

 *    Accelerate deployment of advanced imaging technology to provide greater explosives detection capabilities — and encourage foreign aviation security authorities to do the same — in order to identify materials such as those used in the attempted Christmas attack. The Transportation Security Administration currently has 40 machines deployed throughout the United States, and plans to deploy at least 300 additional units in 2010.
 

*     Re-evaluate and modify the criteria and process used to create terrorist watch lists—including adjusting the process by which names are added to the "No-Fly" and "Selectee" lists.
 

*     Establish a partnership on aviation security between DHS and the Department of Energy and its National Laboratories in order to develop new and more effective technologies to deter and disrupt known threats and proactively anticipate and protect against new ways by which terrorists could seek to board an aircraft.
 

   
*    Strengthen the presence and capacity of aviation law enforcement — by deploying law enforcement officers from across DHS to serve as Federal Air Marshals to increase security aboard U.S.-bound flights.
 

*    Work with international partners to strengthen international security measures and standards for aviation security.
 

Secretary Napolitano's recommendations came in addition to the Department's immediate actions following the attempted attack on Dec. 25, 2009 — including enhanced security measures at domestic airports and new international security directives that mandate enhanced screening of every individual flying into the United States from or through nations that are State Sponsors of Terrorism or other countries of interest and the majority of all passengers traveling on U.S.-bound flights.

"It is unacceptable to just claim human error and systematic problems, but not assign responsibility except to say 'the buck stops here.'  The blame does rest with the President for creating an atmosphere in his Administration where no one wants to offend anyone – not even a terrorist," said Danny Gonzalez, director of communications for KeepAmericaSafe.org, a grassroots organization

"Obama said that as a country we would not have a siege mentality and we wouldn't hide behind the walls of suspicion and mistrust. This is ignoring the fact that America is under siege, and we have bad people at our borders trying to get in.  Most importantly, visiting the United States is a privilege not a right, and we shouldn't be afraid to deny people that privilege if there is any chance they pose a threat," said Gonzalez.
