Every election year…stories about churches engaging in impermissible activities with respect to campaigns…commercials from outside groups from both sides that are supposed to be issue ads…..

And nearly all of them composed of out of context quotes from Lefty-agitators looking to start somethin’. These accusers should give video like the Reverend Wright tapes to make a case of electioneering violations; otherwise, like many of the ads, it’s a matter of subjective interpretation.

Certainly not paying attention, that’s for sure.

On December 8, the Court issued its opinion—the first authored by Justice Sotomayor—in Mohawk Industries, Inc. v. Carpenter. Resolving a split among the courts of appeals, the Court held that an order requiring the disclosure of information protected (arguably) by the attorney–client privilege is not immediately appealable under the collateral order doctrine. The collateral order doctrine, progeny of the Court’s ruling in Cohen v. Beneficial Industrial Loan Corp., allows for the immediate appellate review of an order that fulfills three criteria: first, the order must conclusively determine the disputed question; second, it must resolve an important issue completely separate from the merits of the case; and third, the order must be effectively unreviewable, were a party to wait for the final judgment in a case. Concluding, as did the Eleventh Circuit, that an order requiring the disclosure of allegedly privileged information can manageably be reviewed on appeal from a final judgment, the Court held that the collateral order doctrine does not allow the immediate appeal of such an order.

The facts of the case are straightforward. Mohawk was born of two separate lawsuits. In one, a group of employees sued Mohawk Industries over an alleged conspiracy to drive down their wages by knowingly hiring lower-paid undocumented workers. Without knowledge of that lawsuit, Carpenter allegedly complained to Mohawk’s human resources department about the company’s employment of undocumented aliens.

College kids always tend to favor the “cooler” candidate. Usually there’s not much difference but this time they got Mr. Uber-Cool.

Um, yes. Every election year, you hear stories about churches engaging in impermissible activities with respect to campaigns. Juts as many of these come from the right as they do the left. Every election year you see commercials from outside groups from both sides that are supposed to be issue ads, but that are clearly not

Aw, come on, chaps, that is small beans compared to ACORN’s thuggery.

Add to that affirmative action, from begining to end

I did read that he got Harvard Law Review editor on pure merit.

If he aggressively hides everything (while preaching about transparency to his idiot followers), no one will dig as hard for that one thing because they won’t know where to look

How about where did he get the money to travel to Pakistan when he was a student?

Which schools?

Occidental, Columbia University, Harvard Law School, University of Chicago. I mean, he SAYS he went there, but won’t release any of this records? So why should I believe it? Has anyone come forward who actually saw him attending those schools?

happy, as much as I would dearly love to see Obumbo flushed back to Chicago, or better yet, Indonesia, I don’t think there’s any lack of evidence for his attendance of those schools.
I do remember seeing a class photo of him from Harvard where he was the editor of the Law Review. And Michelle did a lot of bitter carping during the campaign about paying off their student loans. All the white kids had trust funds, she said.

My sincere sympathies, Roland!! I imagine Thanksgiving with your family must be a hoot. You are right, we need to get our children early before they have been brainwashed. Our solution for the future lies in the education of our kids. And that means the pubic schools sytem needs to be either overhauled completely, or disbanded. Stay vigilant, parents and grandparents, to what they are teaching your kids!!

And please, both sides of the isle? somehow I doubt that.

A cross to bear, I know.

Imagine both parents, all of your siblings, all of your aunts and uncles and nephews and nieces and cousins and all of their spouses were Carter, Clinton, Obama cheering leftists who thought and still think Ronald Reagan was one of our worst Presidents.

Welcome to my world.

And in the 20+ years since I figured out they were all nuts and they’ve been trying relentlessly to bring me back into the fold, I haven’t managed to move even one of them one iota away from their world views.

You have to teach the children. Nothing else works.
