How to Make a Republican Stop Talking About Obamacare? John Fugelsang Demonstrates

Now, I cannot promise that following Fugelsang’s example would stop the Republican from talking about Obamacare for ever, but at least it will shut them up for a little while.

John Fugelsang joined Republican fast talker Heidi Harris on the Ed Schultz Show to discussed the fantastic numbers who signed up for healthcare through Obamacare. After hearing “Mrs Harris” spit out the usual talking points as proof that the 7.1 million signups were fake, it was Fugelsang’s turn and needless to say, the facts from Fugelsang outweighed the talking points from Miss Harris.

“The interesting thing here about this is that this is a Republican designed healthcare plan by the Heritage Foundation,” Fugelsang said. “Implemented by a Republican Massachusetts governor, upheld by a Republican Supreme Court. And these guys need it to fail before it can start helping save Republican lives. If the GOP had been behind healthcare reform, if they cared enough, if they valued saving lives over here over blowing up people over there, we might not see this happen. We might see a real public option, real reform, instead of this moderate messy improvement that Obamacare is. I often wish that the GOP had been this concerned about fact checking back in the WMD days. Millions of Americans are now insured.

“Tune into Hannity to see why this is bad.”

SNL Spoofs Fox And Friend or Fox and Friends Spoof SNL – Video

This was a very simple task for Saturday Night Live – a parody of Fox’s Fox and Friends. Why was it a simple task you asked? Because Fox and Friends itself is a parody and anyone wishing to make a joke out of the Fox show already had most of the material written. They just had to come up with the actors.

In this skit, the Fox and Friends characters were really actors from Saturday Night Live, unlike the real actors playing the role on Fox. Get it? Watch as the actors talk about Obamacare, President Obama and their interview Neil deGrasse Tyson.

I bet you can’t tell the difference between the real Fox and Friends actors and the pretend actors of SNL.

Florida Woman Arrested – Torturing and Killing Animals for Sexual Satisfaction

Yes, there are a lot of sick people out there.

A Florida woman, already in custody for violating probation, is facing an additional forty years in prison after police turned up animal torture fetish videos she appeared in where she decapitated live chickens and killed rabbits while engaging in sex acts.

According to the Miami Herald, Sara Zamora, 28, was arrested on eight felony counts of animal cruelty for her feature role in a video called “SOS Barn” that showed her and other porn actresses “torturing and killing a wide variety of animals, including chickens, rabbits and more for the sexual gratification of its viewers.”

The snuff or ‘crush’ video was filmed at the South Miami-Dade home of Adam Redford, who is listed as a co-defendant.

Redford is already on probation for a similar animal cruelty case but has yet to be charged in this most recent case.

Possible Pinging Noise Detected in Search for Missing MH370

This could be the best news so far in the month long search for the missing Malaysia Airline. A Chinese vessel is reporting that it is picking up a sound deep in the Indian Ocean,  consistent with the ping of a black box.

“I have been advised that a series of sounds have been detected by a Chinese ship in the search area,” Angus Houston, the chief coordinator of Australia’s Joint Agency Coordination Centre, said in a prepared statement.

“The characteristics reported are consistent with the aircraft black box,” he said, adding that a number of white objects were sited about 56 miles (90 kilometers) away.

“However, there is no confirmation at this stage that the signals and the objects are related to the missing aircraft,” the retired air chief marshal said.

Neither the Australian Maritime Safety Authority’s Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC) nor the Australian Transport Safety Bureau can verify any connection to the missing aircraft, the statement said.

Woman Declared Dead Woke Up in Morgue’s Freezer, Then Froze to Death

A grandmother prematurely declared dead woke up in a hospital’s freezer and “struggled unsuccessfully to escape her frozen tomb” before dying, according to Los Angeles court documents.

The horrifying discovery came after Maria de Jesus Arroyo’s body was allegedly presented to her family disfigured with a broken nose and scars on her face so severe a mortuary wasn’t able to mask their appearance.

The 80-year-old married mother of eight had suffered a heart attack on July 26, 2010 when a doctor at Boyle Heights’ White Memorial Hospital in Los Angeles declared her dead.

When her mysteriously bruised body was returned to her heart-broken family for her funeral, they assumed it had been abused by hospital staff and contacted an attorney for help.

“I sued for mishandling,” attorney Scott Schutzman told the Daily News.

The hospital in turn, he said, “filed a motion to get out of the case saying there are red fleshy substances [in her wounds] … therefore she must have been alive,” he said of the approximated timing of her injuries.

Schutzman said he immediately consulted his own expert to verify their claims and to his horror, learned that their review concluded the same: “She was placed in the body bag while she was alive,” he said.

U.S Attorney Has Convened a Grand Jury in Bridge Gate Scandal

ABC news reported that the U.S. Attorney in New Jersey has convened a grand jury to investigate the involvement of Governor Chris Christie’s office in the George Washington Bridge scandal, ABC News has learned.

Twenty-three jurors convened in a federal courthouse in Newark today to hear testimony from a key staff member, Christie press secretary Mike Drewniak, whose lawyer, Anthony Iacullo, said Drewniak was not a target of the investigation.

“We’re here to answer questions and that’s what Michael did today,” Iacullo said.

The convening of the grand jury is evidence that the U.S. Attorney’s investigation has progressed beyond an inquiry and moved to the criminal phase.

Judge Refused to Remove Herself From Renisha McBride Murder Case

Theodore Wafer

The motion was submitted by the defense attorneys and today, the judge in the Renisha McBride case denied that motion to remove herself from the case.

Wayne County Circuit Judge Qiana Lillard rejected the motion filed by Theodore Wafer’s attorneys, who argued that her previous employment with the prosecutor’s office and associations with employees create an appearance of impropriety. Lillard was a prosecutor for more than eight years before Gov. Rick Snyder appointed her to the bench last August.

Wafer is charged with second-degree murder after shooting Renisha McBride, 19, at his Dearborn Heights home. He said he believed McBride wanted to break in. Prosecutors say Wafer should have kept the door shut and called police instead of shooting. McBride was drunk and in a car crash three hours earlier.

Firefox CEO Steps Down After Anti-Gay Sentiments

Brendan Eich

The company responsible for the Firefox browser was recently thrown into the midst of a controversy when their CEO made some anti-gay statements.

OkCupid shed more light on the matter when they began blocking Firefox users from accessing their services and now, the CEO of Mozilla is stepping down.

Here is part of the statement from Mozilla’s blog.

Mozilla prides itself on being held to a different standard and, this past week, we didn’t live up to it. We know why people are hurt and angry, and they are right: it’s because we haven’t stayed true to ourselves.

We didn’t act like you’d expect Mozilla to act. We didn’t move fast enough to engage with people once the controversy started. We’re sorry. We must do better.

Brendan Eich has chosen to step down from his role as CEO. He’s made this decision for Mozilla and our community.
