Wake up in your Right Mind
This is NOT a parody…… found at Newsbusters. CNN anchor Deb Feyerick really asked if global warming had an influence on the meteor passing nearby to Earth on Feb 15th.
One of the priceless gems: “Talk about something else that’s falling from the sky and that is an asteroid. What’s coming our way? Is this an effect of, perhaps, of global warming or is this just some meteoric occasion?”
NBC has been the mouthpiece of the left for decades. Your friendly Pharmer was personally caught up in this, long ago, having an hour-long interview turned into a soundbite in a shill for Planned Parenthood. After that interview, all other interview requests from NBC were refused, including their nationally syndicated evening news.
No one should be using NBC or MSNBC as a news source, because their output is fictionalized by heavy and biased editing.
John Nolte of Breitbart has decided to recognize the singular efforts of Eric Wemple at the Washington Post ! for recognizing and reporting on the latest transgression at NBC.
For his efforts to fairly investigate a claim by MSNBC, that the father of a child killed in the Sandy Hook shootings was heckled while giving testimony, Eric Wemple gets links of his coverage:
Was Newtown father really heckled?
MSNBC ‘reviewing’ Newtown ‘heckled’ video
Here’s why Newtown victim’s father was NOT heckled
MSNBC, Huffington Post respond to ‘heckling’ issue
Hannity compares ‘heckling’ case to Zimmerman tape edits
The short of it is that MSNBC edited another tape to portray conservatives and 2nd Amendment supporters as insensitive troglodytes. They did to all of us collectively, as they did to George Zimmerman, and likely it will have similar unjust and disastrous consequences.
The proper response to MSNBC is to stop looking at it, do not click their ads, and try to avoid supporting their known advertisers. Give MSNBC the corporate “death penalty” for its transgressions.

Here’s a collection of NBC editing efforts on behalf of their leftist agenda.
Reuters carefully kept the camera angles low to conceal the fact that the Anti-gun rally on Saturday, in Washington DC was less than a hundredth of the size of the annual March for Life. “Thousands” were said to have attended. See for yourself by checking out their slide show HERE. This would be considered a mandate from the people for the Obama administration.
But 40 years of THIS happening every January in the capitol means absolutely nothing to the Obama administration and its useless media. Check out the 2013 March for life slide show found by Bing image search.
Nothing for the media to see here. NYT had been ignoring it for years, but published just a little bit on it this time.
Here’s a video by Rico Viqueira at ground level, which gives some views of March for Life 2013 passing through.
Now…….. take a look at Telegraph TV, showing you the “1 percent” at the anti-gun rally in DC, on the day after the March for Life.
Who do you think has the ear of the Obama administration?
Is CBS News your trusted news source? Pharmer sees no reason to obtain information from any mainstream television source. John Dickerson is called Slate’s chief political correspondent, but he is also the Political Director at CBS News. He’s been caught telling us just how he feels about the Republican party.
Dickerson thinks that Obama needs to destroy the republican party in order to prevail. This is in keeping with his old habit, dating back to Illinois politics, of eliminating, rather than beating political opponents.
Dickerson says that Obama needs to “pulverize”. “If he wants to transform American politics, he needs to go for the throat”.
Do you see a reason why the republicans should be striving for approval from CBS or any of the other alphabet networks??
John Nolte, at Breitbart thinks that the media, having come out so blatantly as sycophants of Obama, will wear out their welcome into the televisions and computers of the American public, and eventually go belly up.
On to the FUN story of the week. Politifact has mud on its face slung by Reuters announcement that Fiat, which bought Chrysler will be making a hundred thousand Jeeps in China by 2014. They’ll be working with Guangzhou Auto Group to become big players in the auto industry.
What was the biggest lie of 2012 according to Politifact?? It was Romney’s campaign ad, which picked up early on this news and ran with it. Politifact refuted the ad as a lie, and blamed the story on a conservative blogger.
The Romney ad claim, which Politifact called the biggest lie of the year, is actually the literal TRUTH!
Obama signed 23 new executive orders, expanding federal control over the distribution and tracking of guns. Congress is also expected to deal with new legislation, as a solution to the governments utter failure to enforce the existing legislation. The fact that the cited gun violence is concentrated in the areas with the strictest gun control has been ignored, thus revealing that the new legislation is not about protection or safety at all.
As the Abortionist in Chief pretends to be pushing gun bans for the sake of the children, take some time, surfing links below, to review some of his killer classics:

A good, strong media-grrl, Lara Logan shows us the way….following her gang-rape in Tarir ‘Square’ by a mob of crazy Egyptians, engaged in’ Arab Spring’ demonstrations. Perhaps she wants to show us that the trauma of gang-rape is do-able. She sucks it up and heads out on her missions as CBS foreign correspondent, with the help of diazepam and red wine. As we know, diazepam (Valium)is a rather long acting benzodiazepine, so she might retain the effects of the active metabolites of this drug for days after her pre-mission doping. One astute comment followed the story below, suggesting that Ms. Logan should be engaged in different journalistic pursuits until she is able to deal with these trips to other countries without self medicating, for her own sake, as well as that of others.
Pharmer suggests that CBS is still abusing Lara Logan, and obtaining benefit from it.

Health Care and Pursuit of Profit Make a Poor Mix – NYTimes.com.
If you’re feeling bulimic today, you can read (above) a leftist, Eduardo Porter, telling us that profit and health care don’t mix.
Health care professionals are supposed to do their work for free. Profit is evil and the motivation for making money should not have any association with health care. How this leftie expects to attract people to incur huge educational debt, and enter into a very difficult field to work for nothing, is anyone’s guess.
There’s a claim in the NYT article that a health care institution which switches from non-profit to for-profit is more likely to experience patient deaths over subsequent two years. The cited study admits that the shock of switching management and workers, and a myriad of other factors could have much more to do with this effect than the mere acquisition of a profit motive. In fact, the effect of the staffing changes, and the patient mortality rate recedes after the initial shock of change. This is a strong indicator that the mere profitability has nothing to do with the mortality rate, and that the shock of reorganization and personnel changes has everything to do with it. The initial pressures of an institution to sell out to private investors is also discussed in the original study as a major factor.
The NYT also cites a 30 year old study of an unmentioned number of Southern Wisconsin nursing homes, and implied from the invisible data that for-profit institutions used higher doses of sedatives in their patients than the non-profits.
That the New York Times would try to convince you that health care workers and institutions should provide services for free, or at cost, is no surprise. That they would extrapolate the study results from religious affiliated non-profits, and pretend that government-run institutions would operate similarly is similarly not a surprise.
It would, however, be a huge shock and surprise to see the leftie press calling for ABORTIONISTS to provide their services at cost, and take no profits. There’s a fortune in abortion, and this is true for Planned Parenthood, which is excused from taxes as a supposed non-profit (though it does make and report profit), as well as the multitudinous for-profit abortion industries. See an example of Planned Parenthood’s form 990. Don’t ever hold your breath waiting for abortionists to be held to the same standards as real health care providers.
You will NEVER hear a cry from the New York Times that Universities should cease to take profits, or stop paying their instructors and administrators well over the salaries and benefits of equally educated private sector employees. You will never hear them ask that the salaries and benefits of public school teachers be reduced to that of similarly educated private sector employees.
Those involved in furthering the agenda of the left will continue to reap profits and rewards well above the national average with the blessings of their media machine. However, they won’t be satisfied until the rest of us, who provide essential goods and services, are working and living as slaves.
The Washington Examiner’s Paul Bedard clues us in on the latest Washington Secret. This one happens every year, but flies under the radar for most lamestream media attuned Americans.
This year will be the 40th annual March for Life, on Jan 25th, and hotel reservations for that event are outpacing those for Obama’s second inauguration. Every year hundreds of thousands of people, mostly young people and students, show up to re-energize their efforts for the pro-life cause. This year the event organizers are expecting record crowds and are preparing for the youth oriented event with their first-ever use of jumbotrons along the route, a 5 K race, and many accompanying educational events. Check out the website HERE.

Fury After Paper Publishes Names, Addresses of Legal Pistol Owners in New York | TheBlaze.com.
Pistol permit holders in two New York counties experienced the honor of having their names published in the Journal News, and with it, the increased likelihood of having their guns stolen. A map indicating the locations of neighborhood gun owners was published, which included handgun owners, but excluded those who only owned long rifles or shotguns.
Naturally the gun owners were displeased at the prospect of being targeted for home invasions by those who would like to steal guns for possible use in criminal activity. One commenter at The Blaze Blog pointed out that the Roanoke Times in Virginia had published names and addresses of concealed carry permit holders, including that of a woman who was hiding from an abusive ex-husband.
The natural result of the latest action of the Journal News was retaliation, and there was only a short wait for the fun to start.
Bloggers have published the names and addresses of Journal News employees and editors on a map, leaving out the freelance writers. New Yorkers can learn Where Are the Journal News Employees in Your Neighborhood. The journaLOSTS have been given a taste of their own medicine. Perhaps this will serve to discourage any future targeting of lawful gun owners by the press.
See the full sized map here, and the work of another blogger amassing names and addresses here.
