   I learn such interesting things listening to Revolution Radio....Like my poor real info-starved mind has been missing it!
   
   Here's what I learned today: Don't know it if true, but found it to be real interesting....
   
   1. Zimmerman did not call 9/11 to report Martin, he made a direct call to an officer on the Sanford police force. It was an officer who told him not to follow Martin, not a 9/11 operator! He was in direct violation of a police order.....plenty enough to arrest on. 
   
   2. The Augusta Golf Championship that doesn't allow women, always gives a golf membership to the corporate sponsor of it's tournament. Well, this year, the sponsor is IBM, and the CEO is a woman! They can't give her the usual "gift", because she is not allowed to golf there!
   
   2012.....and this is how much we've "advanced"....I feel like it's 1950.

      Not familiar if it was a cop or a 911 operator that Zimmerman called. Regardless, the assh*** should been arrested, He would be in any other city. Of course, the cops are equaly quilty and imcompetent in this case.

         Remember when Cheney shot his friend on that hunting trip?  Reports later came out that he was drinking but local law officials allowed him to go home until the morning, which is when they decided to talk to him about the accident.
         
         I bet if I was out and shot my friend I wouldn’t be able to go home for a few hours before the cops came a calling.

      Now if only listeners would leave in droves. But that's the differnce between people who can and can't think for themselves.

   Tweet to Keith Olbermann: "Now that the left wing media has betrayed you once again, do you plan to switch sides and denounce Progressivism?"
   
   Answer: "The correct conclusion is: LW media is the minority"/////// No kidding.
   
   Erik Erickson, righty talker said he's glad Augusta doesn't admit women.
   We had this fight here on lil ole Cape Cod once too!
   
   A woman wanted to play in a golf tournament, and she wasn't allowed. She sued. Said her tax dollars were used to pay for the course, just like the men's.
   
   And then she got the backlash! I mean horrendous. Started calling her all kinds of names...she's so ugly no man will marry her,--she's a d*ke,--too manly anyway---How come we men can't join a woman's gym?? etc etc.
   
   and now I can't remember the outcome....I just remember the ugly debates on the internet web-site....
   
   Even Olympia Snow said she felt like she was in a 1950's debate. So weird.

   Here's something for Libs:
   
   "It's official. BEYOND OUTRAGE -- my new ebook -- will be out 4/17. In it I explain what's really wrong with the economy and our democracy, why the regressive Republicans are getting away with their lies, what Obama and the Dems must do, and how YOU can make it happen. It's critically important -- and cheap ($2.99, or $3.99 with 5 original videos). I look forward to your thoughts and ideas on Facebook and Twitter -- using hashtag #BeyondOutrage. Here's where you can find out more about Beyond Outrage:" https://www.facebook.com/RBReich/app_419991484682036.

   Since we always see GOP e-mails copied here, here's a Liberal one that I found:
   
   YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN THE REPUBLICAN BASE WHEN...
   
   You didn't get mad when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and
   appointed a President.
   
   You didn't get mad when Cheney allowed Energy company officials to
   dictate energy policy.
   
   You didn't get mad when a covert CIA operative got outed.
   
   You didn't get mad when the Patriot Act got passed.
   
   You didn't get mad when we illegally invaded a country that posed no
   threat to us.
   
   You didn't get mad when we spent over 1.7 TRILLION (and counting due to interest) on an
   illegal war.
   
   You didn't get mad when over 10 billion dollars just disappeared in
   Iraq.
   
   You didn't get mad when you saw the Abu Grahib photos.
   
   You didn't get mad when you found out we were torturing people.
   
   You didn't get mad when the national debt doubled under the previous
   President from $5.674 trillion to $10.024 trillion and has risen another 2.5 trillion since.
   
   You didn't get mad when the government was illegally wiretapping
   Americans and the President lied about it.
   
   You didn't get mad when we didn't catch Bin Laden in Tora Bora but you give the previous administration credit for catching him in Pakistan.
   
   You didn't get mad when you saw the horrible conditions at Walter
   Reed.
   
   You didn't get mad when we let a major US city drown!
   
   You didn't get mad when the deficit hit the trillion dollar mark.
   
   You finally got mad when the government decided that people in America
   deserved the right to see a doctor if they are sick.
   
   Yes! Illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, stealing your tax
   dollars to make the rich richer, are all ok with you, but helping
   other Americans... well that makes you mad!
