But one of them made bail.. and rather INEXPENSIVE bail at that.. $11,000. That's $1,100 dollars..

The other guy could be out on $3,100 at some point in the future..

I have a friend who received a DUI charge and his bail was $30,000. And he didn't threaten, or come close to endangering anyone, at the time of the traffic stop.. This is BS!!

Tea Party Group Jokes About Beating Obama To Death By Igor Volsky on Aug 6, 2012 at 3:33 pm


A local tea party group in Pennsylvania called Northeast Pennsylvania Spirit of 1776 is sending out an email alert in which it imagines the Founding Fathers beating up President Obama in Heaven for being a “radical, socialist leader”:



ThinkProgress spoke with a member of the group, who confirmed that the organization sent out the mailing to its members. She explained that the missive was funny because it’s predicated on the notion that Obama “may be a Muslim.” NEPA Spirit Of 1776 appears to be an independent group that does not endorse candidates and is not aligned with the Republican party.

The bit is a copy of Robin Williams’ ’71 Virginians’ routine, in which he jokes that Osama bin Laden is greeted by Virginians — rather than virgins — when he dies and goes to Heaven.
