Hillary Clinton told the DNC that she wanted to be an astronaut but NASA told her they weren’t accepting any female candidates.
The first female candidate to be accepted by NASA for training was in 1959 during the Mercury program!

It was billed as European largest showcase of “Afro” culture. It ended in widespread violence and rioting.
The Notting Hill Carnival, meant to be a “showcase of Britain’s immigrant community and diversity” has ended in carnage, bloody street battles between police and black gangs, which resulted in at least 488 arrests.
Some 11,000 police officers were deployed at the event, costing taxpayers £6 million. They were attacked, glassed, pelted with missiles and confronted all day with everything from knife wielding black hoodlums and drunks, to dangerous dogs.
Knives, a Taser gun, CS spray and a baseball bat were among the weapons seized during the rioting which followed the end of the carnival, billed as Europe’s largest “celebration of Afro-Caribbean culture.”
A total of 488 arrests were made during the event — 330 in the Notting Hill area and 158 around Oval, where police prevented about 160 black youths from south London entering the main carnival area.
Officers bussed 151 of them to south London police stations where they were detained until the carnival was over. Seven were arrested for possession of bladed articles or public order offences.
Police were battered near the centre of the carnival in Ladbroke Grove after 40 black youths attacked them in planned formations for two hours, pelting them with everything they could find, including bottles, bricks, steel bars and other objects. One officer was glassed in the face.
Backup had to be called in the form of fully armoured riot police, who baton-charged the black mob before order was restored.
Witnesses described a ‘war zone’. One witness said: “It was a full-scale riot. Bottles were flying everywhere. Carnival-goers and police officers were bloodied. A policewoman was carried off unconscious.”

African orphans robbed by “African Americans.”
As the orphans from the SIFA African Children’s Choir prepared to perform at a church in the West Side’s Lawndale neighborhood (approx. 94% Black) Sunday afternoon, someone stole “irreplaceable” items from the van the orphans tour in.
The choir had spent almost a week in Chicago when they arrived at the City of Refuge Ministries, located at 15th Street and Keeler Avenue in the Lawndale neighborhood, according to SIFA founder and director Carrie Harless.
The children arrived in two vans just after 4 p.m. when, within minutes, someone broke the lock off their van and stole the backpacks of the two organization’s directors.
A GPS system, two laptop computers, a video camera, other camera equipment and the passport of one of the directors were taken from the van, Harless said, adding that the computers contained “irreplaceable” photos, sponsorship information and other information the group uses to plan their tours.
“We had been there two minutes,” Harless said. “We took the kids in to change their uniforms and when I came out to get some things from the van, somebody had busted the lock and cleaned us out.”
The California-based SIFA African Children’s Choir is made up of 20 Ugandan orphans who sing, dance and tour the U.S. with their choir to raise money for the Glory Children City Project in Masaka, Uganda, East Africa, a facility that will likely house the children and ultimately develop into a school if the funding comes through.

Freaks and weirdos counting down the days to protest the Democratic primary? The RNC isn’t the only convention that will be protested by a freakish assortment of the extreme left.
From the Riverfront Times
St. Peters alderman Don Aytes remembers well the fears some of his constituents expressed back in 1998, the year MetroLink supporters tried to bring light rail into suburban St. Charles County. “I thought for sure it would pass, and then someone on the MetroLink campaign made the decision to advertise that the train would connect Mid Rivers Mall with East St. Louis,” Aytes recalls. “That pretty much killed it right there. Soon you had people saying MetroLink riders would come to St. Charles by train and leave by car — stolen car.”
Ten years later and a growing number of Saint Louis Galleria and Delmar Loop merchants worry that St. Charles voters may have been right: that maybe MetroLink actually enables criminals, especially teenage lawbreakers. Ask virtually any store manager at the Saint Louis Galleria about shoplifting, and you’ll invariably get two responses: One, it’s out of control; and two, it’s gotten exceedingly worse since August 2006, when MetroLink opened a stop just 500 yards from the high-end shopping center.
In the first six months of this year, Richmond Heights police made 345 arrests at the mall. That’s nearly double the number of arrests made in all of 2005, before MetroLink opened its Shrewsbury line. “I know it’s not politically correct, but how else do you explain it?” comments a frustrated Galleria store manager who, like many Galleria shopkeepers interviewed by Riverfront Times, says her employer prohibits her from officially speaking for the company.
One business owner willing to speak is Rubina Patton, proprietor of Diversity Gallery and the Culture Café situated directly across the street from The Pageant. An African American and a licensed clinical social worker, Patton says it pains her to know that many of the teenagers involved in the attacks in the Loop are black. “I don’t care what color you are, you need to behave,” she says. “I don’t want this blown out of proportion, but it needs to be addressed.”
Note: According to U.S. Justice Department figures over 34,460 White women are sexually assaulted or raped by Black men each year, and most authorities believe that the actual rape figures are at least twice the reported number. The number of White rapes against Black women. Statistically, is 0! Because they have fewer than 10 cases nationally.
From Pittsburgh Tribune Review…
U.S. Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign paid more than $800,000 to an offshoot of the liberal Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now for services the Democrat’s campaign says it mistakenly misrepresented in federal reports.
An Obama spokesman said Federal Election Commission reports would be amended to show Citizens Services Inc. — a subsidiary of ACORN — worked in “get-out-the-vote” projects, instead of activities such as polling, advance work and staging major events as stated in FEC finance reports filed during the primary.
FEC spokeswoman Mary Brandenberger said it is not unusual for campaigns to amend reports, even regarding large sums of money.
But, said Blair Latoff, spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee: “Barack Obama’s failure to accurately report his campaign’s financial records is an incredibly suspicious situation that appears to be an attempt to hide his campaign’s interaction with a left-wing organization previously convicted of voter fraud. For a candidate who claims to be practicing ‘new’ politics, his FEC reports look an awful lot like the ‘old-style’ Chicago politics of yesterday.”

The Christian Science Monitor has tried to present the Russian-Georgia conflict in a balanced way, exploring the arguments of both sides. This is much more than can be said about the US major “mainstream” media. Such as CNN, whom we reported earlier fabricated an entire news story to paint Russia as the aggressor.
From Christian Science Monitor…
As Russia’s flash war with Georgia winds down, two distinct – and contradictory – stories about what happened and why are taking shape. The Moscow press paints a one-sided picture of a beleaguered Russia forced to respond to naked aggression by a pro-Western adventurer, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, in order to save Russian citizens from “genocide.” In the West, some depict the war as a replay of the USSR’s invasions of Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Afghanistan, and warning that a resurgent, oil-rich Russia is returning to Soviet-style domination of its neighbors with brute force.
But close examination reveals a more complex picture – one that suggests each side also has some valid points in its defense. Correspondent Fred Weir gives an overview from his longtime perch in Moscow.
Who started the conflict?
There seems little doubt that the conflict began with a massive military assault, launched overnight by Georgia on Aug. 7-8, apparently aimed at retaking the breakaway republic of South Ossetia before Moscow could react.
Human rights monitors and Western journalists now being admitted to the South Ossetian capital of Tskhinvali can find little evidence to back up Russian claims that the Georgians committed genocide.
But their reports so far implicate the initial Georgian artillery and rocket bombardment of the city of 10,000 people as causing the massive destruction they’re finding, including schools, churches, and the main hospital.
Also crucial, from Moscow’s point of view, is that the Georgian attack on Aug. 8 killed 15 Russian peacekeeping troops, stationed there under 1992 peace accords, and injured dozens.
But the causes of the conflict run deep and, like the layers of an onion, the conflict has many different levels.

Zoning has been denied for the proposed Iglesia de Cristo Su Gran Alabanza Assembleos de Dios church in Antioch, TN.
After 60 people staged a public protest led by city councilman Jim Hodges, the board of Zoning appeals shot it down.
Rush Limbaugh said it’s “striking how unqualified Obama is and how this whole thing came about within the Democrat Party. I think it really goes back to the fact that nobody had the guts to stand up and say no to a black guy.”
“I think this is a classic illustration here where affirmative action has reared its ugly head against them. It’s the reverse of it. They’ve, they’ve ended up nominating and placing at the top of their ticket somebody who’s not qualified, who has not earned it.”
“It’s perfect affirmative action. And because of all this guilt and the historic nature of things, nobody had the guts to say, well, wait a minute, do we really want to do this?”
George Soros funded Mediamatters.com furious at Rush. Soros has pumped millions into the Obama campaign.
Obama blames Limbaugh for losing Indiana primary.

Anyone who wants to know how we got to the point of all this Diversity nonsense and multicultural madness, and where it came from, should watch this 10 minute short film called The House I Live In. Starring Frank Sinatra, it came out in 1945, and was created “to oppose anti-Semitism and racial prejudice.” It was awarded both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award in 1946.
The plot’s pretty simple. Sinatra, playing himself, heads outside for a cigarette break in the middle of a recording session, where he happens upon a gang of about a dozen kids chasing and cornering another kid, getting ready to pummel him. Sinatra intervenes, asking what the trouble is. The ruffians explain that they want to beat the kid up because they don’t like his religion. One tells Sinatra “he’s a dirty -” but Frank cuts him off before he can finish the sentence.
Frank then has a talk with the boys, and shows them how wrong they are. Does he tell them that, while religion is important, going around beating up people with a different religion is not appropriate behavior? Nah, Frank cuts right to the chase. He tells them:
“Look, fellas, religion makes no difference. Except maybe to a Nazi, or somebody that’s stupid.”
Christians like to complain about “modern day” Hollywood denigrating and downplaying Christianity, while insisting that back in the good old days Hollywood respected Christianity. But even back in 1945 Hollywood was giving Oscars to a movie that says that anyone who thinks Christianity is better than other religions is either a Nazi, or stupid.
Sinatra then goes on to explain that we’re all Americans, no matter what we believe, and “prejudice” and “intolerance” are wrong, because even though we all may not see eye to eye on religion, we’ve got to stick together to fight “the Japs.” And, yes, he says “Japs”, repeatedly. The kids then stare wide eyed as Frank breaks into an expurgated rendition of the title song.
