John Roberts----We thank you & SCOTUS---NO BUFFER ZONE AT HOBBY LOBBY

So , based on the SCOTUS ruling on buffer zones at Planned Parenthood clinics , opponents of the Hobby Lobby decision can get "up close and personal" to supporters of Hobby Lobby--i.e. their customers.

Here's Justice Roberts take on this ---"At each of the three Planned Parenthood clinics where petitioners attempt to counsel patients, the zones carve out a significant portion of the adjacent public sidewalks, pushing petitioners well back from the clinics’ entrances and driveways," concluded Roberts in his opinion. "The zones thereby compromise petitioners’ ability to initiate the close, personal conversations that they view as essential to 'sidewalk counseling.'"

SOOOOOOOOO----if we could get a few clips of those ardent protesters at Planned Parenthood we could use them as instruction video for any demonstration we would like to make at Hobby Lobby-----

Except-- that I think moderation is the key here ---to behave with decorum---but let them that we are keen observers of those at the clinics

Halloween Nightmare for Hobby Lobby--for 2 months before the Mid Term election

And what an opportunity SCOTUS has made for the opposition----we can use the months of September and October to protest at Hobby Lobby---substantially reducing their profits during one of their busiest seasons-and at the same time using the protests to GOTV. It won't take much, because business bottom line is thin, a reduction in gross of 10% could be enough to bring the Green's to give up and at the same time galvanize women to vote on November 4. I am a business person and it is beyond me how the owners of Hobby Lobby could pick a fight on women's issues when they are the majority of their customers.

Could this be the start of O'Reilly's Demise

Megyn Kelly beats Bill O'Reilly for the whole week

Source: Deadline Hollywood

It might be known as the week that saw an earthquake at Fox News Channel as Megyn Kelly beat the almost unbeatable Bill O’Reilly in the key news demo last week. Yes, the 9 PM The Kelly File has topped 8 PM’s The O’Reilly Factor on FNC before both on individual nights and even for a full week. However, those single nights were mainly around the time Kelly’s show debuted in early October last year and on Election Night 2013. The Kelly File beat The Factor during the week of May 5, but O’Reilly himself wasn’t hosting that week. Last week’s victory was the first host-to-host face-off where Kelly came out the winner. From June 2-June 6, Kelly File drew 413,000 adults 25-54. That’s a hair ahead of the 402,000 that O’Reilly pulled in among the demo, but in ratings as in horse races, a win is still a win. Both shows were up from the 344,000 and 370,000 among the 24-54s that they had the previous week, respectively. O’Reilly remained No. 1 with 2.528 million viewers overall compared to Kelly’s 2.434 million. Last week was Kelly’s second best week of the year among the demo so far. For the week of January 27, the host had 440,000 viewers on average among Adults 25-54. With Kelly at No. 1, O’Reilly at No. 2 and Hannity at No. 3 with 340,000 in the demo.

Before anyone thinks I am cheering for any part of Fox News please understand that I do not even have TV coming into my house, but that I do pay close attention to the ratings. When you see Bill O'Reilly take a back seat to Megyn Kelly it means that he has been outsmarted (which isn't that hard to do) but it usually doesn't happen by a fellow Fox newscaster, especially during the prime time. My own belief is that Megyn Kelly is a very shrewd journalist who has figured out how to get ahead in this particular misogynist network.

Megyn Kelly‘s interview with Dick Cheney propelled “The Kelly File” to be the #1 show in cable news among the A25-54 demographic Wednesday night. The program delivered 2,378,000 total viewers and 389,000 A25-54 viewers. My belief is that she blindsided both of the Cheneys with her questions about how Cheney was so wrong. That is not the de riguer of a Fox reporter.

Of course her other big coup was on election night when she commandeered the camera for 3 full minutes with a walk down to the Fox election center - --she totally controlled the camera and had it focused on her while Karl Rove and Chris Wallace were left off camera and off mike for the entire time. She did this with the largest audience Fox had that year, and the ratings for that segment went through the roof.

I don't watch Megyn Kelly---Rachel Maddow is my favorite and I see her on a web podcast. But I do study all network and cable tv to try to gauge what is going on.

Flush Rush----and do the same with the Koch Brothers

the organization called Flush Rush has been able to deter over 3,000 advertisers from the Rush Limbaugh show------surely we can make a mark on the Koch Brothers------a boycott on Chick Fil A is hard to measure ---------but an outright boycott ----and constant vigilance on the Koch's will get them away from politics----they are more into greed than principle----and when they see that their profits are falling------trust me ---it won't take much-----these type of people have knee jerk reaction to market trend----and greed will drive them to play nice------let's hunt out their products and keep a tally-----it will show in midterms

OK --JOHN ROBERTS & SCALIA

Maybe they have thrown us into the brier patch-----we can use this ruling to expose any company that donates large sums to the GOP----let's give them an economic lesson----our future is not only GOTV ---but also boycott-----if 65,000,000 voted for Obama ----and only 60,000,000 voted for Romney------we need to create an additional focus on the economics ----if we just simply focus hard on Koch industries ---and really grind that message home to them-----I can assure you that greed is a greater motivator to them than principle ----and at the same time we really reward the companies that donate to Democrats------if you think that it won't work ask Vlad Putin what it meant when he lost Master Card-----midnight calls to Obama --------we need to show John Roberts where the muscle is in this country-----and let's start cracking down -----and who knows what else ----

Duck Dynasty look at Sherman's March to the Sea

Robertson thinks the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor because they didn't believe in Jesus. "All you have to do is look at any society where there is no Jesus. I’ll give you four: Nazis, no Jesus. Look at their record. Uh, Shintos? They started this thing in Pearl Harbor. Any Jesus among them? None. Communists? None. Islamists? Zero. That’s eighty years of ideologies that have popped up where no Jesus was allowed among those four groups. Just look at the records as far as murder goes among those four groups."

Although most Southerners are experts in history , he seems to be forgetting that William Tecumseh Sherman was a God fearing religious man that burned a swath through Georgia that is considered "scorched earth". The Civil War was started in South Carolina and was well supported by Christians both North and South.

The 113th Congress ---A Hall of Shame

They have voted 46 times to repeal Obamacare---an effort that has no way of winning in the Senate, and the President has assured them he will veto it if it ever reaches his desk

This Congress' record has nothing whatsoever to do with job creation-(remember jobs, jobs, jobs) or the country's economic well-being (a shutdown that cost the country $2 billion (from fiscal conservatives) and disturbed the full faith and credit of the US and gained them nothing but the loss of their brand image and a Governorship in Virginia. What they HAVE been about is bashing homosexuals, harassing illegal immigrants, crusading against abortion, invading a woman's private parts, denying climate change, flirting with birthers (except about Ted Cruz), opposing gun control, and revising science to fit a particular religious model. What bills have they passed? I can not find one bill of consequence in my review of the Congressional Record. I don't see one act of bravery on any of their parts. All that I can see is their continual reference to the Hasterd Rule, which even Dennis Hasterd the supposed namesake, denies that it is his. This is a "do nothing" congress that will go down in history as one that is extremely racist, hateful and obstructionist. The legacy they leave for their children and grandchildren is one of pure disgrace.
