Quick takes

Now whose playbook did he take this one from?

Ferguson Police: Public info led to arrest of man in shootings of two officers

“One element of the case that authorities have yet to sort out is intent, McCulloch said, adding that Williams has acknowledged firing the shots but has said he wasn’t aiming at the police officers.

“Investigators are not sure they “buy” Williams’ claim that he opened fire after a dispute with other individuals, McCulloch said, but he didn’t rule it out.”

This is a defense (he meant to kill somebody else) straight out of the Obama administration’s default position whenever they are caught in their latest scandal: incredible incompetence:

“Hey, ah din’t know that was goin’ on in my area of responsibility. Ah din’t even know about it ’til ah read it in the paper…” (“You don’t think I read all those reports and briefings I get, do you…seriously?”)

What could be worse?

Gay groups march at last in Boston St. Patrick´s Day parade  via Lucianne

Boston — Boston´s St. Patrick´s Day parade made history Sunday as two gay and lesbian groups marched after decades of opposition that went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. The gay military veterans service group OutVets and gay rights group Boston Pride joined the annual celebration of military veterans and Irish heritage at the invitation of the sponsoring South Boston Allied War Veterans Council.

“We march today for the memories of those thousands and thousands of people who went before us, some who went to their graves in the closet,”

Comment appended to Lucianne post:

Life in a dying republic: Not one single thing prevented anyone from marching in this parade, but because their entire identity appears to be wrapped up in their genitallical fixation, the US Supreme Court said there´s a constitutional right to march behind a banner announcing who they like to play with between the sheets, in front of the children watching the parade. You´ve got to love the clever way they tie veterans into all of this; pick a read-meat sector beloved by conservatives, then give it a twist. Who would object?

Being tolerant of other is not enough…we all have to become cheerleaders as well.

And damn it, why should she be subject to it !

Carville: Hillary Just Didn’t Want Congressional Oversight   from Patriot Post

Clintonista James Carville is one of the few rushing to defend Hillary Clinton over her secret email servers. But after his most recent comments she may not want his “help” any more. “At the end of the day,” Carville said, “the Republicans can’t pass a budget, alright, [so] we got another investigation, just like we had the Whitewater, just like you go through the file-gate, you go through travel-gate, you go through seven or eight different congressional committees. And you wonder why the public is not following this? Because they know what it is.” In other words, Carville says it’s a political distraction contrived by Republicans — a standard talking point. But he wasn’t finished, adding, “I suspect she didn’t want Louie Gohmert rifling through her emails, which seems to me to be a kind of reasonable position for someone to take. It amounts to … nothing but a bunch of people flapping their jaws about nothing.” Oops. Hillary Clinton just wanted to avoid congressional oversight. How inconvenient to have Congress “rifling through her emails.” Who’d want that? Of course, that oversight is precisely the point, but the Clintons have always played by their own rules.
