Michigan State Police confirmed one fatality in the crash. Area hospitals reported treating 16 patients; one remained in serious condition about 1 p.m. 

I-94 is closed in both directions from Exit 88 east of Galesburg to Exit 92 west of Battle Creek, the Michigan Department of Transportation said.

NJ Democrat, running for mayor, caught on tape saying, "This is going to be a f--g n---town!" Crickets...

May 03, 2014 Councilman Kevin Kennedy , Democrats 0 Comments


By John Featherman, May 2, 2014, Philly.com

 Mainstream media bias is alive and well.

 While it’s not surprising that a far left publication like Mother Jones would go there, it didn’t take long for the mainstream media to make front page news revealing that Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling was a Republican.

 The horrors! Those evil, racist Republicans.

 Right?

 In almost every article I’ve ever read that involves a racist or sexist Republican, the fact that they are, in fact, a Republican is often made the most prominent aspect of the column – as if there is something terrible wrong and humiliating to have the dreaded GOP affiliation linked to you.

 Bear in mind, Donald Sterling has not, is not, and probably will never run for public office.

 But he’s been given the dreaded Scarlet Letter.

 Fast forward to this breaking story from New Jersey’s Star-Ledger about a councilwoman from the city of Belleville, N.J who is now seeking to be its mayor.

 From the story, reporter James Queally tells us:

 BELLEVILLE — A Michigan forensics lab has confirmed with "85 percent" certainty that the voice heard on a phone message using a racial slur is that of Belleville councilwoman and mayoral candidate Marie Strumolo Burke.

 In the recording, which was posted to YouTube and has been the subject of local discussion for weeks, a woman’s voice that is allegedly Burke’s can be heard yelling in the background of a voicemail left on Councilman Kevin Kennedy’s answering machine.

 "This is terrible. This is terrible. This is gonna be a (expletive) (N-word) town," the woman says near the end of the 90-second message.

 You can hear the audio here and make up your own mind.

Balanced Budget Convention Gains Steam--Congressman Calls For Official Evaluation -- After BB, spending cap essential

April 02, 2014 Budget , California 0 Comments
By Stephan Dinan, Apr. 1, 2014, The Washington Times
Rep. Duncan Hunter on Tuesday asked Congress to evaluate whether enough states have officially called for a constitutional convention to propose a balanced budget amendment — marking the next step toward what could be an historic gathering.

Mr. Hunter, California Republican, said Congress should take stock of where things stand after Michigan last week approved an official call for a balanced budget amendment convention. According to some analysts, Michigan’s move makes it the 34th state to request a convention.

The final decision is up to Congress.

“It is my belief that the House should lead an effort to ascertain whether 34 states have voted affirmatively,” Mr. Hunter said in a letter to House Speaker John A. Boehner.

“A balanced budget amendment is long overdue and remains an effective tool to address runaway spending and deficits,” he wrote. “With the recent decision by Michigan lawmakers, it is important that the House — and those of us who support a balanced budget amendment — determine whether the necessary number of states have acted and the appropriate role of Congress should this be the case.”
