It is symbolic, but when Obamacare crashes -- as it will -- the Rs will be out there saying, "We tried to repeal it 38 times, but Pelosi & Reid stood in the way at every opportunity."

The wheels are coming off of it and it and everyone knows it. Well, everyone but you and Al, apparently.

News analyst: NBC News ‘on the hook’ in Zimmerman lawsuit
...............................................................................................
Washington Post ^ | July 17, 2013 | Erik Wemple


Lis Wiehl, a Fox News analyst, said, “That’s absolutely not enough. NBC is on the hook here for a big defamation, intentional infliction with emotional stress lawsuit here. They doctored that tape. It went out there. It started the whole narrative of Zimmerman being this hardened racist, this profiling racist that started everything.”

‘It was terrifying’: Zimmerman protester assaults woman driving daughter to the hospital

Hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets in Houston on Monday to protest against the acquittal of George Zimmerman, but what started as a peaceful rally turned terrifying for one woman who claims she was assaulted while trying to get her daughter to the hospital.

“I looked up and I see all the protesters, they’re everywhere,” said Georgia, who asked Click 2 Houston that her last name not be used. “So, we got into the traffic and they’re stopping us and not letting us go.”

Police told the station that protesters spilled into the road, blocking traffic for about 15 minutes during rush hour. Georgia was trying to get her younger daughter to Texas Children's Hospital, because she was having an emergency allergic reaction to some medication.

“My mom rolled down the window,” said Georgia’s older daughter. “She said, ‘We’re trying to get my granddaughter to the hospital,’ and a guy just started hitting her.”
