Can You Believe A 4 Yr Old Was Waterboarded For Not Learning The Alphabet?!!


Waterboarding
a terrorist is not acceptable to me because I don't believe in torture. But after 9/11,I can understand why some folks felt they had to go to any length to obtain any information that might prevent another attack. It was about keeping America safe.

What was the torture of a 4-yr. old girl about? Well,a U.S. soldier decided that this would be the appropriate way to punish his daughter for not reciting her ABC's. A torturous investigative method that is used on evil brutes was utilized by a father as a form of discipline.Since this guy thought this was a good form of punishment,I believe that he should be tortured as well.

Here's more from The Huffington Post:

"A U.S. soldier is accused of holding his 4-year-old daughter's head upside-down underwater because she would not recite the alphabet, according to court documents.

Joshua Ryan Tabor, 27, was arrested Sunday, January 31, when police in Yelm, Wash. were responding to a domestic disturbance.

According to court documents, Tabor was "irate, intoxicated and walking around the neighborhood with his Kevlar helmet threatening to break windows." Tacoma News Tribune has more on the abuse:

Tabor spoke to a Yelm police officer and said that he and his girlfriend had "held her down on the counter and submerged her head into the water three or four times until the water came around her forehead and jawline." He said that she was face-up when her head was in the water. He added that they gave this punishment for the 4-year-old "refusing to say her letters."


Tabor told police that his daughter is afraid of water "and was squirming around trying to get away from the water. Joshua did not act as though he felt there was anything wrong with this form of punishment."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the rest here.

I Never Would Have Guessed That Scott Brown Was Related To President Obama!




The newly elected Massachusetts senator,Scott Brown,is related to President Obama
. They are distant cousins. And this isn't the only Republican that Obama has family ties with. Not only is Scott Brown his 10th cousin,President Obama can also call Dick Cheney his cousin.

President Obama doesn't just have a "team of rivals" like Abraham Lincoln did.He has a family of rivals as well.

Here's more from The Wall Street Journal:

"President Barack Obama can add a new name to the list of things he calls Scott Brown: cousin.

Genealogists at the New England Historic Genealogical Society said today that the president and the Republican senator-elect from Massachusetts are 10th cousins. Obama’s mother and Brown’s mother are both descendents of Richard Singletary of Haverhill, Mass., who died in 1687.

The Obama-Brown family tree can be seen here.

This isn’t the first time genealogists have tied the president to notable Republicans. During the 2008 presidential campaign it was reported that Obama and former Vice President Dick Cheney are 8th cousins.

The revelation led Obama’s spokesman to quip: “Every family has a black sheep,” and the vice president to jokingly refer to him as “my cousin Barack Obama.” (END OF EXCERPT) Read more here.

Chris Matthews Is Obsessed With Obama's Blackness!


Oh,my goodness! I am so excited for Chris Matthews of MSNBC! He actually was able to forget that President Obama was black for an hour! How grand of him! What about our other presidents? Did he or anyone else ever forget that they were white?

I mean,that is pretty ridiculous to me. That is why I am leaning more & more towards becoming an independent. Because of folks like Reid & Matthews. They are so liberal that they have taken the liberty to say racist things. President Obama is a mulatto. Really, he is neither black or white. The man is a combination of both. Chris Matthews is using Obama's time in the White House to explore his own feelings about race out loud. Frankly speaking,he should keep his racist musings to himself.

But more importantly,Chris Matthews should obsess on not spitting while he talks. Because I'm sure some of his guests have been sprayed with his saliva. That would be my number one focus if I were him.

Here's more on Chris Matthew's ignorance from The Huffington Post:

"Chris Matthews is definitely going to take some heat for exclaiming that he "forgot [Obama] was black tonight for an hour... I said wait a minute, he's an African American guy in front of a bunch of other white people." Matthews was analyzing President Obama's first State of the Union speech when he made the remark.

As Mediaite points out, Matthews was fortunate that the GOP rebuttal began soon after his comment, preventing any awkward responses."(END OF EXCERPT) Read the rest here.
