DANVERS, Mass. – Police said a cleaning man was taken to a hospital after being sucked into a machine at a sausage-making company in Danvers. The accident happened Thursday night as the man was cleaning the vacuum-type machine that is used to season the meat at DiLigui Sausage Co. Police said the man's head and shoulders became stuck in the machine after it somehow activated while being cleaned. Lt. Carole Germano told The Salem News that the man — whose name was not released — was freed from the machine and showed no obvious sign of trauma, but was taken to a hospital as a precaution. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is investigating the mishap.

Los Angeles—Here in Los Angeles, illegal immigration isn’t just the talk of the town, it’s a way of life. But for some illegal immigrants, there are just some jobs they won’t actually do. That’s where liberals come in, proving there’s nothing they won’t do. And one such liberal American is Patti Cake—a 36-year old unemployed accountant. Patti used to work at Forge, Forge and Forge, LLP, but since November 7, 2008, she’s been unemployed. Now, Patti has found a new career choice, one that even a Mexican won’t do. “After I got laid off in 2008, I used up all my unemployment benefits,” declared Patti. “That’s when I got ...

I thought Joe the Plumber was a one time thing but he went after the entire Hilton family for Paris’ behavior, brought in a foreign President to condemn our immigration policy which matches said foreign President's immigration policy, and used a back door vote to get health care passed in the middle of the largest recession since the great depression. We lost millions of jobs and they aren’t coming back. He seems Marxist and I wish I would have voted for McCain. It wouldn’t have mattered but are there any other disapointed Obama fans?

Palin: Press "looking for that 'gotcha moment'" Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin had a message Sunday for Rand Paul and other tea party or libertarian candidates this fall - never trust the press. "There's certainly a double standard at play here," the 208 Republican vice presidential nominee said on "Fox News Sunday". "One thing that we can learn in this lesson, that I have learned and Rand Paul has learned now, is don't assume that you can assume in a hypothetical discussion about constitutional impacts with a reporter or media personality who has an agenda, who may be prejudiced before they even get in the interview in regards to what ...

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Republican U.S. Senate nominee Rand Paul’s decision to cancel his planned appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday morning didn’t stop him from being the dominating topic of discussion during the show’s early minutes. Host David Gregory suggested that Paul, an eye surgeon from Bowling Green, may have found the national spotlight “a little too hot” over the past week. Paul triggered a firestorm of criticism and questions when he said in recent media interviews that private businesses should be able to decide whether they want to serve minorities, even though he abhors racism and discrimination. He also said President Obama ...
BP: Mile-Long Tube Collecting Less Oil From Gulf Spill As Crude Creeps Into Coastal Marshes

Three top Obama administration officials are returning to the Gulf Coast to monitor the massive oil spill that seems to have no end in sight, as BP PLC officials said Sunday that one of their efforts to slow the leak wasn't working as effectively as before. BP spokesman John Curry told The Associated Press on Sunday that a mile-long tube inserted into the leaking well siphoned some 57,120 gallons of oil within the past 24 hours, a sharp drop from the 92,400 gallons of oil a day that the device was sucking up on Friday. However, the company has said the amount of oil siphoned will vary widely from day to day. Engineers are working furiously to stem the growing ooze as more wildlife and ...
Insult my people with a cheap and tawdry insult and I will call you: BOSS NIGGER to your face!

The term "tea-bagger" is like uttering the word "nigger," some say. Though he aspires to promote civility, evidence has surfaced that President Obama has added "tea-bagger" to his public lexicon, though it's considered a cheap and tawdry insult by "tea party" activists. Watchdogs at Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) barked when they saw the proof, tucked in a sneak peak of Newsweek columnist Jonathan Alter's new book, "The Promise: President Obama, Year One," to be released May 18. Indeed, it appears the president joined certain partisan critics and the liberal media, and took the tea-bag plunge. "This remark is the equivalent of ...

The celebration at Hawaii Republican Party headquarters was barely 15 minutes old as Charles Djou, the GOP's newest darling, had already moved past the historic victory and turned his sights toward the general election in November. "I know there are going to be pundits out there who are going to try to minimize the significance of tonight's election," Djou told a crowd of jubilant supporters after winning the special election to fill the vacancy in Hawaii's 1st Congressional District. "These pundits are going to say the only reason this evening occurred is because of unique political circumstances," he added. "These pundits are going to tell you to ...

EDMONDS, Wash. – The KING 5 Investigators have learned that an illegal immigrant accused of raping a woman in Edmonds Sunday has been deported nine times. That's much more than previously reported. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement won't comment on the case of Jose Lopez Madrigal. But KING 5 got the information through confidential sources and documents. Larry Klein was the man who heard the alleged victim's cries for help. Police say the suspect pulled the woman off the street to a dumpster and raped her. "I could see the back of his head. I could see his pants were down. I could see her lying on the ground. I could hear her crying, but I couldn't really see ...

Establishment Ass Kisser Kevin Tracy Says Rand Paul Proves The Idiot Doesn’t Fall Far From The Tree

Rand Paul is attacking President Obama for criticizing British Petroleum (BP) for it’s failure to handle the oil spill effectively. Rand Paul says it’s not the President’s place to criticize the company responsible for the thousands of gallons of oil flowing into the Gulf of Mexico every day. Instead, he says simply that “sometimes accidents happen.”
Yeah, I can think of another accident made by Republicans in Kentucky a few days ago.
There are 4,000 oil wells in the Gulf of Mexico, if accidents are going to “happen,” we should stop all off shore drilling. This sort of “accident” is devastating virtually every industry in an entire region of the country. If accidents are going to ...
Sharpton: Detroit Girl's Death Is 'Breaking Point'

DETROIT (AP) -- Hundreds of people turned out Saturday for the funeral of a 7-year-old Detroit girl killed in a police raid and were told they must help stop the violence that has recently swept the city. Civil rights activist the Rev. Al Sharpton gave the eulogy for Aiyana Stanley-Jones, who died Sunday when a police bullet stuck her in the neck. Sharpton questioned whether officers in the city's affluent suburbs would throw a stun grenade into a house before entering as Detroit officers did. But he said that while he could criticize Detroit police and political leaders, he'd rather offer a broader message to the community. "I'd rather tell you to start looking at the ...
Bigoted Rachel Maddow and her institutionally racist Statist-liberalism are in no position to point fingers at Rand Paul

(By Chris Moore) -- In this interview currently sweeping the Internet (video and transcript here), MSNBC's Rachel Maddow grills Rand Paul on the 1964 Civil Rights Act, of which he supports nine out of 10 of its Title provisions, stating time and again that he is opposed to all forms of institutional racism. Maddow self-righteously shakes her head in feigned disgust and contempt when Paul stands up for private property rights that conflict with a tenth provision, and implicitly accuses him of supporting violence against those who advocated desegregation:PAUL: Well, there's 10 -- there's 10 different -- there's 10 different titles, you know, to the Civil Rights Act, and nine ...

MEMPHIS, TN – The two gunmen connected to the shootings in West Memphis that left two West Memphis police officers dead Thursday, drove a van that's registered to a church in Ohio. According to records with the Ohio Department of Motor Vehicles, the plates on the gunmen’s van are registered to “House of God’s Prayer” in New Vienna, Ohio. The church was once affiliated with Harold Ray Redfeairn, a white supremacist preacher who died in 2003. Redfeairn was a leader of the Aryan Nation. He was also convicted of trying to kill a cop in 1979. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate groups across the country, Redfeairn was sentenced to four ...

The Environmental Protection Agency chief on the job during the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska in 1989 and a former Florida senator will lead the presidential commission investigating the Gulf of Mexico disaster. President Barack Obama on Saturday announced the appointments of William K. Reilly, EPA administrator under Republican President George H.W. Bush, and Bob Graham, a Democrat who also was Florida governor, as the panel's heads. Obama intends to name five others to the commission, which will examine issues such as what caused the spill, the safety of offshore drilling and operations at the Minerals Management Service, the federal agency that grants drilling rights.

Rand Paul Says He's Being 'Trashed Up and Down' by 'Democratic Talking Points'

Rand Paul, the Tea Party's rising star from Kentucky who won the state's GOP Senate primary this week, says criticism of his views on the Civil Rights Act and other pieces of anti-discrimination legislation are "red herrings" and Democrats' attempt to "trash" his campaign.
"When does my honeymoon period start? I had a big victory," Paul told George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America" today. "I've just been trashed up and down and they have been saying things that are untrue. And when they say I'm for repealing the Civil Rights Act, it's absolutely false. It's never been my position and something that I basically just think is politics."
Paul's comments came amid a firestorm of ...
Some Oil Spill Events From Friday, May 21, 2010

A summary of events on Friday, May 21, Day 31 of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill that began with the April 20 explosion and fire on the drilling rig Deepwater Horizon, owned by Transocean Ltd. and leased by BP PLC, which is in charge of cleanup and containment. The blast killed 11 workers. Since then, oil has been pouring into the Gulf from a blown-out undersea well at a rate of at least 210,000 gallons per day. HOW MUCH? With each day, the oil gushing into the Gulf of Mexico is adding up to mind-boggling numbers. Using worst-case scenarios calculated by scientists, a month's worth of leaking oil could fill enough gallon milk jugs to stretch more than 11,300 miles. That's more than ...
GOP Officials Ponder How To Help, And Tame, Rand Paul

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Even as national Republican officials seek ways to limit damage from Rand Paul's unorthodox remarks, the Kentucky Senate nominee raised more eyebrows Friday by defending the oil company blamed for the Gulf oil spill. Those comments, on top of Paul's earlier suggestion that businesses should have the right to turn away racial minorities, sent gleeful Democrats into full attack mode while top Republicans pondered how to calm things down. It's a delicate issue. The Republican establishment spurned Paul and supported his opponent, Trey Grayson, the hand-picked choice of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. Paul, a favorite of the tea party movement, ...
April mass layoffs rise led by manufacturing

(Reuters) - The number of mass layoffs by U.S. employers rose in April led by manufacturers who shed workers even as the economy began to recover. The Labor Department said the number of mass layoff events -- defined as job cuts involving at least 50 people from a single employer -- increased by 228 to 1,856 as employers shed 200,870 jobs on a seasonally adjusted basis. The number of mass layoffs in the manufacturing sector totaled 448 resulting in 63,616 initial jobless benefit claims, the department said. That was more than 24,000 higher than the previous month, but well below the 125,000 initial jobless claims in the manufacturing sector a year ago. The Labor Department said the ...

#72. To: Good Ole Boy (#49) Imagine if an attack like the Israelis warned about succeeded. Imagine the sweeping new powers the Govt would grab in the wake of it. Would the Leftists in power be willing to sacrifice a major city, or large piece of territory to a WMD attack in order to get that result? I certainly think so. It would save them a lot of trouble building up those powers the slow way, and give them a cop-out excuse for it to boot. Malignant narcissists do no have ANY concern for anyone other than themselves. They are ONLY concerned with POWER. And the accumulation of power. They want to be adulated, and have the POWER to destroy anyone who does not adore/worship them. Obastard ...

Like an annoying tune you can't get out of your head, Barack Obama keeps using his ''rock star'' aura to campaign for Democrat candidates...and they keep on losing. So much for star power and presidential ''coat tails.'' First in Virginia and New Jersey, then Massachusetts and now Pennsylvania just this week, Barack Obama's endorsement has led to election flop after flop. Now you can ensure the Democrats' 2008 overnight sensation and his ''Hope & Change'' theme turn out to be a one-hit wonder. It seems like just yesterday that the leftist Democrats and their fawning mainstream media fans were raving about their can't miss ...

Things are a' changing. Even the New York Times is jumping ship on Obama's Katrina and pointing to the many failures of the (once) Chosen One's administration. Recall last week that Obama 'went angry' and entirely blamed the gulf oil spill disaster on BP, et al? It's not hardly so (NYT): Tensions between the Obama administration and the scientific community over the gulf oil spill are escalating, with prominent oceanographers accusing the government of failing to conduct an adequate scientific analysis of the damage and of allowing BP to obscure the spill’s true scope. The scientists assert that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and other ...
