The President went to Chicago and decided to do some early voting. For those who are still unaware, the midterm election is just a couple of weeks away on November 4th!
Apparently, a young couple decided to vote early too and found themselves voting right next to the president. As the president began the process of casting his ballots and minding his own business, the girl’s boyfriend walk past and advised the president not to try anything with his girlfriend.
“Don’t touch my girlfriend,” the guy said to the President. He was later identified as ‘Mike.’
“I really wasn’t planning on it,” Obama said, as he joked with the woman voting in the next booth. She was later identified as Aia Cooper, Mike’s girlfriend. “There’s an example of a brother just embarrassing you, just for no reason whatsoever.”
“And now you’ll be going back home and talking to you friends; what’s his name?” the president asked.
“Mike,” Cooper said.
“‘I can’t believe Mike. He’s such a fool,’” Obama said, impersonating the woman.
“He really is,” she agreed.
Obama continued: “‘I was just mortified. But, fortunately, the president was nice about it. So it’s all right.’”
“I am freaking out right now,” she said, laughing.
The president got the last laugh, though.
“Give me a kiss and give him something to talk about,” the president said, as he gave Cooper a hug and a peck on the cheek. “Now he’s really jealous.”
But Cooper downplayed the moment.
“He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Just the cheek,” she told ABC’s Chicago station WLS. “Please, Michelle, don’t come after me!”
A Corpus Christi, Tex. man accidentally shot and killed his 16-year-old brother Sunday night, police told South Texas TV station Kiii News.
Investigators said that the 24-year-old man was removing his gun from its holster, and the gun accidentally discharged. The 16-year-old was shot in the chest.
Police said that the man kept his gun nearby while watching the TV show “The Walking Dead.”
Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher who was dismissed earlier this year as a racist for his remarks about black people, thrust himself back into the political discourse this week with an apparent endorsement of a candidate for Congress in Nevada. The Congressional candidate is a black man named Kamau Bakari.
The odd couple is seen in an ad complaining about black people and political correctness, with Bundy claiming that he has done the hard work, has put his time in and should be allowed to say whatever he wants in this country. After all, FREEDOM!
“I worked my whole life without mistreating anybody,” Bundy said in the ad, “a man ought to be able to express himself without being called names.”
Kamau Bakari agreed with Bundy, calling him “a brave white man” for making his racist statements. He said Bundy was exactly what America needs to “put an end to this political correctness stuff!” Kamau then said he “is ashamed” when black folks talk about white folks, saying, “white folks this and white folks that, always begging.” And to that statement, Bundy answered, “it’s almost like black folks think white folks owe then something.”
Sidenote: In case you forgot, Bundy was chastised for saying that black people are on government subsidies and “they abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I’ve often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn’t get no more freedom. They got less freedom.”
The two men then called out Eric Holder, labeling him a “race baiter.” They asked Holder to come to Nevada and talk with them, just like he did when he went to Ferguson. “Mr. Eric Holder, this is one white that’s not scared to talk about race,” Bundy says. “I dare you to come to Las Vegas and talk to us.”
President Obama took the First Lady out to dine while he was here in New York for meetings at the United Nations, but when he offered his card to pay for the meal, the charge was declined by his financial institution, causing the president to think he was the victim of identity theft.
“It turned out, I guess I don’t use it enough,” Obama said Friday at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
“They thought there was some fraud going on,” he said, chatting while announcing a government plan to tighten security for debit cards that transfer federal benefits like Social Security to millions of Americans.
“I was trying to explain to the waitress ‘No, I really think that I’ve been paying my bills.'”
Fortunately first lady Michelle Obama was able to whip out a credit card they could use.
Identity theft is a growing problem and an estimated 100 million people have been affected by security breaches in the past year at retailers like Target and Home Depot.
“Even I’m affected by this,” he said.
Employees at Estela, the New York restaurant where Obama dined on Sept. 24 while attending the U.N. General Assembly, said they couldn’t discuss the credit card issue.
Now I’m not sure what tests Pat Robertson conducted, or how many Kenyan towels he personally checked for the AIDS virus, but Robertson is going out informing his audience that yes, you can in fact get AIDS from a Kenyan’s towel.
And you thought human beings were the most advanced species.
Robertson was responding to the concerns of a missionary who wanted to travel to Africa to help the people. The person expressed concerns about the present dangers and diseases like ebola, but stated that they are not concerned because they will be doing God’s will. But the person did not want to be presumptuous. They wanted to make sure that they were doing the right thing and not testing God.
Pat Robertson answered, “Not in Kenya. You might get AIDS in Kenya, the people have AIDS. You got to be careful, the towels can have AIDS.”
The incident happened on July 14th of this year in Michigan. The man, identified as 46-year-Timothy Mitchell was at an auto dealership when police was called because according to the caller, Mitchell was drunk and acting up. Mitchell left the dealership, driving away in his car and a high-speed chase ensued when cops spotted him.
The chase was eventually called off due to public safety concerns and Timothy’s car vanished. Shortly afterwards, a police officer named Justin Schlabach, spotted Timothy’s car crashed along the roadside. With his dash-cam filming, officer Justin Schlabach is seen pulling up to the scene. He exited his car and walked towards Timothy, his gun drawn.
The camera, which is capable of recording sound, is suspiciously quiet. It is later revealed that the officer’s microphone was broken, so no sound was recorded.
According to the officer’s report, Timothy started walking towards him, saying “you’re going to have to shoot me.” On the video, Timothy is seen walking towards the officer. The officer took a few steps back and shot. Timothy staggered off to the side, fell and died.
Claiming that the officer did nothing wrong in taking the man’s life, prosecutor of Marquette County Matt Weise, refused to prosecute and cleared officer Schlabach of all wrong doings.
An Imperial Beach barber sliced his customer’s neck in the middle of a straight razor shave Monday, police said.
Cops arrested 22-year-old Daniel Flores on attempted murder charges shortly after the nightmare slashing at Vic’s Barber Shop, Fox 5 San Diego reported.
Witnesses said there was no fight between Flores and his customer, 33-year-old Timothy Paul Vaughn. Instead, the Sweeny Todd-like hairdresser cut the man’s throat during the shave, bolted from the store and fled to his aunt’s house, where police nabbed him.
Vaughn’s condition is not known, but he is expected to survive, police said.
Police did not detail the two men’s relationship: it’s not clear if Vaughn was a long-time client or a new customer. Investigators have not discussed a possible motive.
Her name is Malala Yousafzai. Malala, not “melaria!” And it is called the Nobel Peace Price, NOBEL, not Noble!

Her intentions were good, but her spelling was terrible.
A Detroit police homicide sergeant has been suspended after department officials found him wearing a murder victim’s expensive watch.
Sgt. Alex Vinson was the officer in charge of a case several months ago involving an unknown murder victim who was found wearing an expensive, German-made watch, Detroit Police Chief James Craig confirmed.
The watch was photographed and put into storage in the Homicide Section’s property room. The victim has not been identified, and the homicide case has gone cold.
This week, while Vinson was in Idaho for advanced police training, fellow homicide detectives decided to reopen the case.
The detectives wanted to take another look at the watch — but when they removed the victim’s belongings from the property room, the watch wasn’t the same one that was photographed at the start of the case. Instead, it was a cheaper model, Craig confirmed.
The detectives quickly informed police officials about the discrepancy, Craig said.
“We were made aware of this a few nights ago and immediately initiated an internal investigation,” Craig said. “We directed (Vinson) to return home.”
Craig added the FBI helped police recover the watch, which Vinson was wearing during the training session. Vinson returned to Michigan Wednesday, and was read his Miranda rights by Internal Affairs officers.
“The case in ongoing, and the sergeant has been suspended while we prepare a warrant for review by prosecutors,” Craig said.
The reports say the man, who was not identified, was coughing during the flight to the Dominican Republic. Right before the plane landed, the passenger made the scary proclamation, causing widespread terror amongst the other passengers.
When the plane landed in Punta Cana, the passengers were checked at a medical facility for a fever, a main symptom of the deadly diaease. They all checked out and we’re eventually sent on their way.
Video taken in the plane shows workers in hazmat suits going through the aircraft. A man, believed to be the one who made the announcement, is seen being escorted off the plane, while saying “I ain’t from Africa!”
The only ‘news’ from Fox News is the ‘News’ that comes after the word “Fox.” If that word wasn’t included in the name, then they would more appropriately be called ‘Fox Opinions’ instead.
Here is an example explaining why I make that statement. What “news” network would advice the Generals in any administration to “put their stars down and walk out?”
President Obama is not George Bush and should never be confused with Bush. George Bush had a reputation of being a numskull, incapable of formulating an independent thought, the marbles in his brain were the toys of Dick Cheney. Barack Obama on the other hand is the total opposite, and has been accused by some in his own circle as taking his time when making decisions. Getting all the information first and thinking things through completely.
Over the last few days, some former workers in the President’s circle have been making the rounds, promoting their books about their time in the administration and insights they gained while working with the president. And like any other smart book salesperson, these former White House workers are telling the media exactly what they want to hear – perceived faults of the president – in hopes of bringing more attention and publicity to their books.
Leon Panetta has been extremely critical, blaming the president for the rise of ISIS and being a vocal opponent to the president’s “no boots on the ground” strategy. The media loves hearing this stuff and Panetta is feeding off their love of Obama-hate. Talking about positive attributes of the President apparently makes bad television, so Panetta has been making the rounds, his criticisms getting repeated airplay on television, his book sales undoubtedly rising.
So needless to say, Fox News found “news” in Panetta’s claims and decided to share it with their loyal fans. Their discussion focused on Leon’s critical statements and the statements of couple other Generals on the president’s “no boots” strategy in fighting ISIS. They all want the president to put “boots on the ground” to fight ISIS in Iraq and Syria and his decision not to do so is upsetting to them.
One of the ferns on the Fox couch expressed how frustrated the Generals must have been, when they told the President to put boots on the ground and he refused..
“You know what’s curious about the books that come out, is it’s pretty clear that in this administration the president of the United States ultimately decides what to do. But we’ve heard from Gates, we’ve heard from Pinata, they’ve given him great advice and he doesn’t take it. You’ve got to figure if you’re them and you’re sitting in a meeting and you make the case – and Hillary Clinton had a book that came out too – you make the case why you should do certain thinks a certain way and he says ‘no, we’re not going to do it that way,’ you just got to figure they’re sitting around the table going, [hits himself in the forehead] ‘no, not again!'”
And then this piece of news from another guest was the response.
“Why would they sit around the table Steve, they should just lay their stars down and walk out!”
First, a congressman claimed he is advising generals in the Obama administration to quit, now Fox is doing the same. Could you imagine the size of the posse they would have sent to take you to the gallows if you, as a liberal, had suggested that the Generals in the Bush administration should have quit? Especially in a time of War?
Day after day, Republicans tun in by the millions to hear the things Rush Limbaugh say. Not only to hear the things he say, but also to memorize the list of new talking points from their leader with the golden mic.
On Monday, said leader with the golden mic went on a rant, stating, without facts of course, that president Obama is allowing Americans to be infected with the Ebola virus as a payback for slavery.
I know, I know, just when you think a couldn’t get any crazier, this will be the new talking point from the Republican party.
While speaking with one of the unfortunate callers on his nationally syndicated talk show, ‘the Limbaugh’ said that there are liberals who believe that America is responsible for the spread of Ebola in Liberia because that nation was established by freed American slaves.
“And if it hadn’t been for that they probably wouldn’t have [Ebola]. So there are some people who think we kind of deserve a little bit of this,” he said, before accusing elected leaders of purposely leaving the country vulnerable to the virus.
“The danger we have now is that we elected people in positions of power and authority who think this or think like this in terms of this country being responsible, this country being to blame for things and it’s that kind of thinking that leads to opposition to shutting down airports from various countries,” Limbaugh explained, referring to the Obama administration’s handling of the crisis.
“It leads to opposition to keeping these people out of the country: ‘How dare we? We can’t turn our back on them! They exist because of us. We can’t turn them away!’”
