De Blasio Blasts Disrespectful NYPD Cops While His Wife Wore Jeans To Funeral

While New York Mayor Bill de Blasio had the gall to cry "disrespect" after a slew of cops turned their backs on him- again- at murdered Detective Wenjian Liu's funeral, his wife (Chirlane McCray) turned up wearing denim blue jeans and a ratty looking blue coat and white scarf. I know it was cold, but couldn't she have mustered up a more suitable outfit. Maybe some gray or black slacks and a nice wool coat.  She looks like she should be out shopping at Walmart.

But this is what he said about the thousands of NYPD officers who have turned their backs on him, on various occasions, since he sided with protesters, some of whom have called for death to cops.

"Those individuals who took certain actions the last two weeks, they were disrespectful to the families involved. That's the bottom line." "I can't understand why anyone would do such a thing in the context like that."

And I can't understand why your wife would dress so inappropriately at a funeral. That's disrespectful, Mr. de Blasio.  What's that phrase about stone houses?

Compare George W. Bush With Hitler- DC Teacher Asks 6th Grade Students

So a teacher at McKinley Middle School in Washington DC gave his class an assignment: compare and contrast Hitler with George W. Bush with Venn diagrams. 

 It seems the class was studying war and peace, and the unidentified instructor at McKinley Middle School sent the class home to pore over the histories of "both men who abused their powers."

Parents got wind of it, and the district issued a quick mea culpa, the Washington Post reports. "The teacher deeply regrets this mistake, and any suggestion to malign the presidency or make any comparison in this egregious way," says a spokeswoman for DC schools. The teacher, she adds, acknowledges "extremely poor judgment" and will apologize to his students.

Now, imagine if this teacher had asked them to compare and contrast Hitler with Barack Obama? What do you think would have happened to the teacher.  Pink-slipped. Yeah, I know he's a sitting president, but still. An apology would not have sufficed.

Boston Bombers' Muslim Faith Irrelevant Says MSNBC'S Melissa Harris-Perry

Typical liberal-speak on Melissa Harris-Perry's MSNBC show regarding the Boston bombers.

Harris-Perry and her panel believe that the Muslim faith of the Tsarnaev brothers should have no bearing in the investigation into the Boston Marathon massacre. To do so is merely demonizing the "other", since "there is no evidence suggesting the suspected attackers may have embraced a radicalized version of Islam."  No? I guess she hasn't been keeping abreast of all the information that has been pouring in from the FBI, some family members and others.

Panel member Georgetown University professor Michael Eric Dyson said

“[Americans] fill in the blanks with the stereotypes… we fill in the blanks with what makes us feel most comfortable that this was an exceptional, extraordinary case that happened because they are this.”

Indeed. Imagine had they been conservative, white men who were responsible.  Melissa Harris-Perry would most definitely be singing a different tune.
