There’s really only one video I’ve seen this week that’s worth repeating (besides Rep. Buyer’s amazing interview) - 1) Auto Tune the News But in honor of the recent IU conference on Black impact on Rock , I thought that it was worth mentioning the rapper from “the only place more dangerous [...]

Advance Indiana: Obama Still Covering Up Fort Hood Muslim Terrorist Attack

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 22:53:00 -0500

President Barack Hussein Obama continues to demonstrate that he is more interested in not hurting the feelings of Muslims than protecting our soldiers. This means pretending that Maj. Nidal Hasan's execution of 12 Army soldiers and one civilian employee last week at Ft. Hood was something other than a Muslim' [...]

TheBellCurve: Can you hear me now?...

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 17:41:00 -0500
