  • Tranyvon Martin's Body
    (Chorus)John Brown was a hero, undaunted, true and brave, And Kansas knows his valor when he fought her rights to save; Now, tho the grass grows green above his grave, His soul is marching on. (Chorus)He captured Harper’s Ferry, with his nineteen men so few, And frightened "Old Virginny" till she trembled thru and thru; They hung him for a traitor, they themselves the traitor crew, But his soul is marching on. (Chorus) John Brown was John the Baptist of the Christ we are to see, Christ who of the bondmen shall the Liberator be, And soon thruout the Sunny South the slaves shall all be free, For his soul is marching on.  William Weston Patton:

  • Giving Away the Farm
    Agriculture Chairman Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) told the Rules panel that he is committed to moving a nutrition title this summer or early fall. But Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-N.Y.) said the process was “perfectly dreadful” and “an earthquake” to break up the farm bill in this manner.
    “I trust you. …I know you are a straight-shooter,” “But given what I heard on the House floor during the farm debate … I don’t have a lot of trust in the people that run this place right now, especially in regard to Title IV [nutrition].” Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.)

  • Abortion Texas Style
    The Texas House voted to give initial OK to House Bill 2, a proposal that would ban abortion at 20 weeks and impose stricter standards for clinics. Critics of the bill say the added burden would cause the majority of providers in Texas to close. “Now is not the time to play political football with women's health,” said Rep.

  • The Cheneys of Wyoming
    A California-based political action committee has mounted a national petition drive to draft Liz Cheney to run for the U.S. Senate in 2014.
    The One Nation political action committee’s original goal was to collect 50,000 signatures by June 21, but the deadline has since been extended. The signatures are intended “to present to Liz to show her broad support among conservatives,” the petition on the One Nation website reads.Star Tribune
    It would bring about “the destruction of the Republican Party of Wyoming if she decides to run and he runs, too,” Alan K. Simpson, a former Republican senator from the state, said in an interview last week. “It’s a disaster — a divisive, ugly situation — and all it does is open the door for the Democrats for 20 years.”
