Thursday Morning News Roundup
I know that everybody was waiting on the edge of the seats to see if Sarah Palin was going to run for president. Right now, the rumors are she’s not going to run. This should be no surprise to anyone who follows politics. As remember, Sarah Palin started her bus tour several months ago. No matter what she and her handlers said about the bus tour, the purpose of the bus tour was clear – generate a buzz. Unfortunately, for Sarah Palin, her bus tour of New Hampshire and Vermont and New England was a flop. So, she fell back to her alternative plan, <a href="http://www.ecigs-store.com/kgo-001-p-16.html"><strong>where to find electronic cigarettes</strong></a> let the presidential race start and then let a groundswell of people who did not want Mitt Romney or Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann to ask her, to demand that she get in the race. That didn’t happen either. So, I think she has no alternative but to announce that she is not running for president. A new immigration law is <a href="http://www.ecigs-store.com/egot-001-p-9.html"><strong>electronic cigarette brands</strong></a> causing many Alabama workers to flee the state. The mainstream media has completely missed the whole point of Occupy Wall Street. The mainstream media continues to point out there’s not a coherent message. I find this somewhat amusing. The tea party for months never expressed a coherent message yet the mainstream media covered every sneeze, hick up and rally, even if there is only three people there, of the tea party. Jon Stewart has a nice segment on this. Liberals and progressives need to take notice of occupy Wall Street. This is people power. Occupy Wall Street has grown out of the overwhelming show of solidarity that we saw in Wisconsin. I know that the word maverick has been thrown around a lot in the last 24 months. The word had been hijacked by Sarah Palin when in fact, the word opportunist would probably fit her better. On the other hand, Derrick Bell was truly a maverick. His work in the Justice Department when superiors told him that his membership in the NAACP was a conflict of interest. He quit his job in the Justice Department. When he was a tenured professor in Harvard Law school he stepped down because of Harvard’s minority hiring practices (or lack thereof). Derrick Bell has died at the age of 80. He was a true maverick. He fought for social justice. <a href="http://www.ecigs-store.com/egob-001-p-7.html"><strong>blu electronic cigarette</strong></a> He was a true warrior.
