A tea party group in Houston known for being a racist group of Obama protesters is circulating emails of President Obama dressed like a pimp.
The TeaParty.org group is drawing criticism after its founder Dale Robertson sent a fund raising email with a headline that read, “Obama Pimping Obama-Care, One Last Time!“, as well as a picture of the President dressed like a pimp.
If there was any doubt that Robertson and his klan were racist, the founder was previously pictured holding a sign that called taxpayers “niggars.”
Since his ridiculous actions several other tea party groups have distanced themselves from him.
The daughter of Oscar Grant, the man killed by officials with Bay Area Rapid Transit, is receiving $1.5 million in settlement money from a wrongful death lawsuit.
BART has agreed to pay 5-year-old Tatiana for financial support after the January 1, 2009 death of her father.
On New Year’s Day of last year, cell phone video surfaced showing the murder of Oscar Grant.
Officer Tony Pirone was seen holding Grant down while Officer Johannes Mehserle drew his weapon and shot him in the back.
Mehserle maintains that he meant to fire his tazer at the unarmed Black man….yeah, right.
Officer Mehserle has been charged with murder.
His case is still pending.
Attorney John Burris, who represents little Tatiana initially asked for $50 million in the lawsuit.
Is $1.5 million enough to make up for this???

As previously reported, California government passed the Donda West Law in honor of the late mother of Kanye West in fall of 2009.
The law was designed to promote cosmetic surgery safety after the untimely death of Donda West stemming from preexisting conditions.
Now with the law in place some cosmetic surgeons claim that the new law is ineffective and unnecessary.
The law requires a physical exam and medical history before cosmetic surgeries and according to surgeons like Dr. Michael Miguire, president of the American Society of Plastic surgeons, the law is redundant.
He states to CNN that the requirements of the law are “so fundamental as part of medical training and medical care that to require it by law seems to be moot.”
He then adds that it’s like telling doctors,
“Make sure you suture up all the wounds.’ At what point does it become absurd?”
While Donda West’s doctor Jan Adams claims that she underwent several pre-surgery consultations, several members of her family maintain that she did not.
In related news Donda’s son Kanye is seeing an ease in his legal woes now that criminal charges have been dropped against him.
Ye was facing criminal charges for breaking the equipment of two camera men during an incident at LAX in 2008.
Along with Ye his manager was charged with battery, grand theft and vandalism.
All of the charges have been dropped now that both men have successfully completed anger management classes and performed community service.
Steven Jackson of the St. Louis Rams is charged with beating his then nine-month pregnant girlfriend.
The now ex-girlfriend, Supriya Harris, filed a complaint to the Las Vegas police department saying that Jackson pushed her to the ground several times during an argument.
She also says her flung her into a door while she tried to protect her stomach and continued shoving her into the door until the player’s nephew interceded telling him,
“Uncle, she has a baby, stop.”
She then says he took her to hospital but told her to lie about the wounds received from being flung into the door and say she fell in the shower.
After giving birth to their son Harris says she left 4 months later after receiving another threat of violence from Jackson.
The head coach of the St. Louis Rams Steve Spagnuolo has since released a statement saying,
“We are aware of the situation involving Steven Jackson. We are in the process of gathering information. We are always concerned with issues involving our players.”
Snooki is ready to break loose from the Jersey Shore! We already know that she’s ready for action, and can take a punch, now her agent says that she would love a spinoff if MTV thinks it’s a good idea.
She’s even got a name picked out: Snookin’ For Love!
The Jersey Shore cast is currently in the middle of negotiations for a second season. An MTV publicist told us that the outcome of the negotiations should be known Monday at the latest and possibly by Friday.
Meanwhile, Snooki’s agent Scott Talarico said that he can’t put a date on the end of negotiations because idea and proposals are still being discussed by the parties. “I am confident there will be a second season I am just not sure of the end date of the negotiations.”
So expect Jwoww, The Situation and Snooki back on MTV despite the network letting it be known that an all new cast could be assembled quickly.
Meanwhile Snooki, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, has received more than her fair share of attention on the surprise hit and that’s got her thinking spinoff. “If in the event MTV would like to do a spin off show with her Snooki, she would love that,” says Talarico.
But not so fast, replies MTV. One of the network’s publicists told RadarOnline.com: “All the cast members have talked about wanting their own spin off show but there are no shows in the works.
“Snooki has talked about having her own spin off show. She talks about it a lot, she calls it Snookin’ For Love but again, no we have no plans for a spin of show yet.”

ESPN Reports:
TEMPE, Ariz. — Kurt Warner has called an end to one of the great storybook careers in NFL history.
The 38-year-old quarterback announced his retirement from the game on Friday after a dozen years in a league that at first rejected him, then revered him as he came from nowhere to lead the lowly St. Louis Rams to two Super Bowls, winning the first of them.
“Not much on the drama part of it, as most of you know,” Warner said to begin a news conference at the Cardinals’ training facility. “I’m excited about what lies in front of me. I’m excited about spending more time with my family, and seeing what God’s going to do next.”– Kurt Warner
Warner said he’d been leaning toward retirement for the last half of this season.
“Obviously, it’s been 12 unbelievable years, some of the best years of my life,” a composed Warner said. “But I want everybody to know that I’m just as excited about the next 12, that I’m excited about what lies in front of me. I’m excited about spending more time with my family, and seeing what God’s going to do next.”
Written off as a has-been, he rose again to lead the long-suffering Arizona Cardinals to the Super Bowl a year ago.
Warner walked away with a year left on a two-year, $23 million contract, knowing he still had the skills to play at the highest level.
He had one of the greatest postseason performances ever in Arizona’s 51-45 overtime wild card victory over Green Bay on Jan. 10, but sustained a brutal hit in the Cardinals’ 45-14 divisional round loss at New Orleans six days later.
Warner leaves the game with a legacy that could land him in the Hall of Fame even though he didn’t start his first game until he was 28.
In a comparison with the 14 quarterbacks to make the Hall of Fame in the last 25 years, Warner has a better career completion percentage, yards per pass attempt and yards per game. Only Dan Marino had more career 300-yard passing games.
In 124 regular-season games, Warner completed 65.5 percent of his passes for 32,344 yards and 208 touchdowns. He and Fran Tarkenton are the only NFL quarterbacks to throw for 100 touchdowns and 14,000 yards for two teams.
Warner, who grew up in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and played collegiately at Northern Iowa, ranks among the career leaders in a variety of passing statistics.
He was also the fastest player in NFL history to 10,000 yards passing and tied Marino as fastest to reach 30,000.
He has the top three passing performances in Super Bowl history. His 1,156 yards passing in the 2008 playoffs broke the NFL record of 1,063 he set with St. Louis in 1999.
Warner’s rise from obscurity seems the stuff of sports fiction.
He played three seasons in the Arena Football League and one in NFL Europe, mixed in with a sting stocking grocery shelves back in Iowa.
Warner made the Rams as a backup in 1998, then was thrust into the starting role in 1999 when Trent Green was injured.
What followed was a masterful and wholly unexpected season, when he led the Rams to a 13-3 regular-season record, then a Super Bowl triumph over Tennessee. He was named the league and Super Bowl MVP.
St. Louis was upset in the first round of the playoffs the following season, but Warner had them back in the big game in 2001, where “The Greatest Show on Turf” lost a squeaker to New England. The season earned him a second NFL MVP award.
But after an injury-plagued 2002 season, he was sacked six times and suffered a concussion in a 2003 season-opening loss to the New York Giants. He never started for St. Louis again.
He signed a free agent contract with the Giants for 2004, but was replaced by rookie Eli Manning after nine games. Warner came to the Cardinals in 2005 and was an off-and-on starter before replacing the injured Matt Leinart part way through the 2007 season.
Warner had to beat out Leinart the following spring, then led the Cardinals to the NFC West crown and playoff victories over Atlanta, Carolina and Philadelphia before the narrow loss to Pittsburgh in last year’s Super Bowl, where he threw for 377 yards.
Off the field, Warner has been just as impressive.
He and his wife operate the First Things First Christian charitable foundation. Last year, he was named the NFL’s Man of the Year for his off-field and onfield accomplishments.
Warner’s departure leaves Leinart the presumed replacement. The former Heisman Trophy winner has started 17 games for Arizona but only one in the last two years.
