Lou Dobbs, above, at the anchor desk at CNN’s New York studio in 2006, said Wednesday that he is leaving the cable news channel effective immediately.

Lou Dobbs, the longtime CNN anchor whose anti-immigration views have made him a TV lightning rod, said Wednesday that he is leaving the cable news channel effective immediately.

Sitting before an image of an American flag on his television set, he said “some leaders in media, politics and business have been urging me to go beyond the role here at CNN and to engage in constructive problem solving as well as to contribute positively to the great understanding of the issues of our day.”

“I’m considering a number of options and directions,”

The big question is if he is leaving on his own or got canned. CNN didn’t seem to care for his birther tendencies but I won’t go into that taboo subject here. Maybe there is no room for diversity at CNN. Toe the Obama line or be gone. That would be easy to believe given their last place cable news status.
Is he going to Fox News…?
That would be awesome.
Is he going into politics…?

We will have to wait and see.

Hoffman. Yes.
Christie. Yes.
McDonnell. Yes.

I guess that means we’re screwed now. Now that the moderates have been driven from the party I guess this is the death knell for the GOP.
Damn….why did we have to win?
This is a disaster.
Now Obama and the Democrats are stronger than ever.
MSNBC has told us this election was not about Obama at all.
Conservatives winning tonight means that we are now weaker than ever because winning this election will only drive away the independents away.
Oh god…why didn’t we stick with Scozzafava…?
Damn those conservatives.

I’m not from New Jersey but I’m pulling for you big guy.
I really hope you win. If you manage to pull it off it will be a political tsunami.
May the Force be with you.

Your buddy NeoKong.

Didn’t see this on CBS tonight.
I don’t blame them really. They are only following orders not to repeat what is reported by FOX News.
What’s a “news organization” to do….?

DETROIT — Federal authorities on Wednesday arrested several members of a radical Sunni Islam group in the U.S., killing one of its leaders at a shootout in a Michigan warehouse, the U.S. attorney’s office said.

Agents were trying to arrest Luqman Ameen Abdullah, 53, at a Dearborn warehouse on charges that included conspiracy to sell stolen goods and illegal possession and sale of firearms. Authorities also conducted raids elsewhere to try to round up 10 followers named in a federal complaint.

Abdullah refused to surrender, fired a weapon and was killed by gunfire from agents, FBI spokeswoman Sandra Berchtold said.

Nothing to see here . Move along.
I thought that those guys were all about peace and stuff.

In the 43-paged complaint unsealed Wednesday, the FBI said Abdullah, also known as Christopher Thomas, was an imam, or prayer leader, of a radical group named Ummah whose primary mission is to establish an Islamic state within the United States.

No one was charged with terrorism. But Abdullah was “advocating and encouraging his followers to commit violent acts against the United States,” FBI agent Gary Leone said in an affidavit.

He told them it was their “duty to oppose the FBI and the government and it does not matter if they die,” Leone said.

Abdullah regularly preached anti-government rhetoric and was trained, along with his followers, in the use of firearms, martial arts and swords, the agent said.

Leone said members of the national group mostly are black and some converted to Islam while in prisons across the United States.

“Abdullah preaches that every Muslim should have a weapon, and should not be scared to use their weapon when needed,” Leone wrote.

Thank goodness he wasn’t a returning Iraqi war vet because it could have been serious. Those guys are scary. We can thank out lucky stars that he wasn’t a Tea Partier too because Nancy Pelosi told us how violent they could be.
Why should we worry about this guy ?

Seven of the 10 people charged with Abdullah were in custody, including a state prison inmate, the U.S. attorney’s office said. Three were still at large. Another man not named in the complaint also was arrested.

The group believes that a separate Islamic state in the U.S. would be controlled by Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin, formerly known as H. Rap Brown, who is serving a life sentence in a federal prison in Colorado for shooting two police officers in Georgia in 2000, Leone said. Al-Amin, a veteran of the black power movement, started the group after he converted to Islam in prison.

What’s so wrong about that ? A separate Islamic state in the U.S. controlled by a double cop killer serving life.
Nothing newsy there.

Not much of a news story really now is it ?
Let me see if I got my facts straight.
American citizen.
Muslim convert.
Weapons.
Shooting range in mosque.
Preaching violence.
7 in custody. 3 on the run.

Ah….there’s nothing there. There is no connection to Rush. There is no connection to the GOP.
No Tea Partiers. Nobody is white. Can’t call it racial.
No one is probably even a Republican.
If only we could link them to Sarah Palin. Then you would have a story.
Nope….not news.
Sorry for wasting your time.

Boondoggle.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - The Los Angeles Police Department is officially being handed the keys to its new headquarters.

Local officials including Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and outgoing police Chief William Bratton are scheduled to open the gleaming 10-story, $437 million downtown structure Saturday morning.

The so-called Police Administration Building will replace Parker Center four blocks away. The 1955 facility has outlived its service life and is likely to be demolished.

Voters in 2002 approved a bond measure for new police facilities, and construction began on the new headquarters in 2007.

The new building features a broad glass front police say represents a new era of transparency for a department once resistant to public scrutiny.

That’s just one police station. Not all of them. Picture.
Wow….ten whole stories for the bargain price of 437 meellion dollars.
About 43 million dollars a floor. I’m sure they have underground parking as well.
Gee. I guess L.A. county must be swimming in the dough to have built such an expensive building.
Could they have possibly spent any more money on it…?
How the hell they managed to spend 437 million dollars on just one ten story building is beyond me.
Just to compare. Let me show you what much less money can build.

Hoover Dam bypass project. 240 million dollars.
Picture.

Trump World Tower. 300 million.

Zakim Bridge. 105 million. The widest cable stayed bridge in the world. Picture.

One Wal-Mart 10.3 million
Wal-Mart could build 43 new stores for the price of that one single police station.
What’s it got…? Golden toilets.

See what happens when you have robust debate.

TEHRAN, Iran — Three defendants in Iran’s mass trial of opposition figures accused of fueling the country’s postelection unrest have been sentenced to death, an Iranian news agency reported Saturday.

Two of them were convicted of membership in a monarchist group seeking to topple Iran’s Islamic Republic and restore a monarchy, the semiofficial ISNA news agency reported, quoting judiciary official Zahed Bashiri Rad

Well imagine that. Someone in Iran doesn’t like it when some people try to topple govt.s and stuff.
Go figure.

The judiciary official would only identify the three sentenced to death by their initials, the news agency reported. He said their lawyers have been informed of the rulings and that they can appeal the sentences, ISNA reported.

On Friday, Amnesty International identified one of those sentenced to death as Mohammad Reza Ali Zamani.

Amnesty said the 37-year-old was convicted of “enmity against God” through membership in a monarchist group. It also said he was convicted of making propaganda against the ruling regime and of leaving the country illegally to meet with U.S. military officials in Iraq.

Iran is going to put those men to death.
Obama says we can negotiate with Iran.
I wonder how he feels about the death sentence thing…?

Poor guys. It looks like they are in trouble.
If only there was some person…say with new found international clout.
Some guy…who was heralded by some world body or something.
Some person who those in the world look up to and even tell him so with distinguished awards who could somehow intervene on their behalf.
Someone perhaps who inspires hope that the world will become more peaceful in some way who could speak out against this.
That would surely be noble or even a prize if you will.

Anybody….somebody.

(crickets chirping…..)

It’s on baby…!
Cage match.

I think the guy is getting a little sensitive lately.

Since I’m being excommunicated from the ranks of the faithful anyway, I’ll come out and say it: this is absolutely disgusting. Where was Michael Steele? What the hell is wrong with the right?.

What the hell is wrong with the right….?
What the hell is wrong with that site. It’s like the daily Kos now.
I have never seen him get like this. He was practically flecking spittle all over the computer screen in his angry rant to demonize Rush Limbaugh.

He put up an audio of Rush Limbaugh talking about the white school kid who had the bejeezuz beat out of him on the school bus filled with black kids while they all laughed and cheered.
Johnson was angry.

There’s much more to this ugly rant than the “segregated buses” line. It’s pure race baiting. If you don’t see that, well, there you go.

He got the audio btw from …drum roll please, Media matters. The same Media Matters that put out a severely altered video the other day to critcize Glen Beck.
Charles Johnson is now linking to Media Matters.
Pathetic.
He also linked to NewsOne for black America who had an article of Rush Limbaugh’s ten most racist quotes.

Top 10 Rush Limbaugh Racist Quotes.

All out of context, and sarcasm. Right?

He also threatened people who disagreed with him and there were at least six deleted posts. Many tried to say that Rush was just being sarcastic. Charles would have none of it.

If you want to disagree with my take, that’s fine. But if you can’t do it without being insulting, your account will be history.

He posted at least 14 comments on the diary about all of Limbaugh’s racism. That’s a lot for him.
The man was motivated.
Of course two of his loyal little soldiers, Kilgore Trout and Sharmuta were there to back him up.That would be the same Kilgore Trout who was planting comments on Hot Air the other night to embarrass them.

It’s also worth noting the the schoolbus fight ended up not being a racial incident. Rush, Drudge and Malkin were trying to turn it into one.

I will leave it you people to figure out how he came to that conclusion since there has been almost a media blackout on it.

I fail to see how Rush’s “sarcasm” is making things any better. I fail to see how it encourages understand, or sympathy for our fellow Americans. Rather this “sarcasm” seems more like another wedge to divide people than to bring us together. Hooray for furthering increased polarization, eh?

What the hell is he doing to that site. I think he sold it to someone else and just walked away.
This is not the Little Green Footballs that I used to know.
He is picking fights with everybody on the right.
Kilgore Trout was trying to set up Hot Air…?
Now he is calling out Limbaugh in a most incendiary fashion.
This is gonna’ get good.
I imagine that Rush will be addressing this tomorrow.
Stay tuned.

And Joe Wilson got in trouble why….?

STEPHANOPOULOS: How about the funding for ACORN?

OBAMA: You know, if — frankly, it’s not really something I’ve followed closely. I didn’t even know that ACORN was getting a whole lot of federal money.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Both the Senate and the House have voted to cut it off.

OBAMA: You know, what I know is, is that what I saw on that video was certainly inappropriate and deserves to be investigated.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So you’re not committing to — to cut off the federal funding?

OBAMA: George, this is not the biggest issue facing the country. It’s not something I’m paying a lot of attention to.

Wow…I’m speechless.
Why wasn’t little Stephie jumping up and screaming “ARE YOU BLEEPING ME!” ?

Yeah…Obama had no idea that ACORN was getting a whole lot of federal money.
You lie Mr. President.

Their hypocrlsy know no boundaries.
Shame on you Nanzi Peloser.

House Democratic leaders will move ahead with a “resolution of disapproval” against Rep. Joe Wilson (R-)(S.C.) on Tuesday afternoon, following through on their threat to sanction the conservative lawmaker for heckling President Obama last week.

House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.) will formally introduce the resolution Tuesday afternoon, according to Democratic insiders, and the vast majority of Democrats - as well as some Republicans - are expected to vote for it.

Did they ever sanction William cold cash Jefferson…?
How about Charlie tax cheat Rangel…?
What about when Cynthia McKinney slapped a Capitol Police officer….?
How about when John Murtha accused the Marines in Haditha of committing cold blooded murder with absolutely no evidence?
I believe that Nancy Pelosi herself even called the CIA liars recently.
They are the most shameless corrupt group of thieves and liars I have ever seen.

They can sanction Joe Wilson but the rest of the country wants to put him on their shoulders.
They had better hope that the voters have a short memory next year.
