Hold the phone … huh?
If you’ll recall, this past weekend, Donna Brazile declared that voter fraud is “a big ass lie.” Has she had a change of heart?
Hmmm. That sounds an awful lot like voter fraud …
Let’s let her be clear:
OK, so it’s not voter fraud, per se. It’s more like “deceptive voter practices.” Voter fraud is essentially a myth.
“Under the guise of voter fraud”? C’mon, Donna.
There’s only one thing left to say:

As Twitchy has reported, the layoff bomb has detonated. Small business owners relayed their heartbreak over having to lay off employees, due to the crushing finanical burden of Obamacare. Large businesses are contemplating cutting workers’ hours and hiring freezes. Small businesses are doing the same.
People everywhere are closing up shop on small biz. laying off employees. Ending their medical practice. #obama2012

And they are being attacked for it. Threats of boycotts have been spewed. Because, you know, that totally helps the employees whose hours keep being cut due to business-crushing Obama policies. Other businesses have been attacked as racist or as un-American. For struggling to remain in business.
Now, small business owners on Twitter, and their loved ones, report further devastation. Countless small businesses are now forced to close their doors. Here are just a few of the heartbreaking stories.
So sad, our diner in business for over 35 years just posted a sign of impending closure. They can’t afford to stay open, 23 employees

The heartbreak is palpable. The devastation is overwhelming. People have worked so hard all their lives in order to build businesses and employ others. And now it’s gone. The sad reality is that President Obama and his policies have destroyed these small businesses.
I’m so sad my work is closing down after 20 years of business. I got this with my paycheck 💔😢 twitter.com/itssrachelann/…
— Rachel P(@itssrachelann) November 8, 2012

The Left would demonize that company, too. They clearly value and love their employees. Heartbreaking. And the heartache will just keep coming.
When small business thrives, we all do. When small business suffers, we all do.

Are you listening, “leaders?” We know President Obama isn’t. Talk to the hand, business owners. You didn’t “build that” anyway.

“Melissa & Joey” and “Clarissa Explains it All” actress Melissa Joan Hart describes herself as a conservative and recently tweeted that she’s “totally” for the Second Amendment.
http://twitter.com/#!/MelissaJoanHart/status/456411355101147137Totally? She’s become quite the promoter of Mike Bloomberg’s anti-gun umbrella group, Everytown for Gun Safety.
http://twitter.com/#!/MelissaJoanHart/status/471817832855269376And she’s helping Moms Demand Action spread the word about its #ShakesNotShotguns campaign.
http://twitter.com/#!/MomsDemand/status/471984441901199360TheBlaze’s Dana Loesch has had a run-in or two with the Moms Demand bullies. “Wow,” she tweeted when she learned that Hart had gone full Moms Demand.
http://twitter.com/#!/DLoesch/status/471130039308648448You never go full Moms Demand.
Hart was a politically engaged and outspoken supporter of the Romney/Ryan presidential ticket. We get that she has a negative reaction to the optics of open carry demonstrations, but if she’s the Second Amendment supporter she claims to be, it’s time for her to do a little research into the tactics, hypocrisy and true mission of Moms Demand.

Rap mogul Russell Simmons’ interview with CNN’s Don Lemon was taped today but doesn’t air until Saturday. Presumably the two hashed out their differences over black culture, which got ugly when Simmons called Lemon a “slave” for urging black youth to pull up their pants and stay in school. In the meantime, R&B singer and woman-beater Chris Brown has weighed in with his own indictment of modern rap, saying it makes him sick.
We’re fine with less “gansta” in our hip hop. Pair that with some respect for women in real life and we’re on to something. What do you think, Twitter?

Visitors to Berlin show us their favourite art on the capital’s fallen wall at the East Side Gallery and tell us why it’s special.
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I really like this piece because in general the Berlin Wall has so much history and social attachment to all the different conflicts that have happened in Berlin and in Germany as a whole. In most places they don’t have a wall for graffiti and someone expressing themselves. I really like this one because personally there’s so much detail, it’s very abstract, but you can see what’s going on, you see the different areas, people holding prized possessions. It catches your eye, makes you want to stare at it and take it all in.” – John Linari Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I think I particularly like this piece because of the scale and the juxtaposition with the surroundings. It’s a really nice balance of chaos and simplicity – the colours are really enjoyable.” – Dana Reynolds Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
Katie said this was her favourite because of the “colour and symmetry”.
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I must say that this is the first time I’ve seen this – I’ve been here three or four times in this part of Berlin, and this is the first time I recognise this painting, and I like it because of the idea that someone else is pushing your thumb up. I guess it reminds me of the Soviet Union somehow. That’s why I like it.” – Gianmarco Trapani Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I like this because it looks like there is a woman trying to keep out all the armies and violence from the planet. You can see how outside this planet there is a spreading rainbow and some roots of trees, and some guys that are partying, they are happy.” – Nicolò Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I really like this work of art by Peter Russell because the colours are very beautiful, there’s a lot to see, it’s really full, so it catches your eye. Everything on this wall has symbolism that really speaks to me, which makes it very interesting to look at and also the way it is painted is very beautiful. It’s nice that you need to have time to look at it – you have to look longer at it to understand what it means, and what the artist means with it.” – Hanneleen and friends Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed

“Albert Einstein is a very famous person in Germany and he’s a very intelligent guy who has always impressed me.” – Sillmann Helge
“This piece of art seems so incongruous with everything, because you’ve got the history of the Berlin Wall, where you’re entering either the American or Russian sector. I just love that they decide to go with the Japanese sector instead. It’s completely out of place, and for that purpose I absolutely love it. Me with my Russian hat, being in Germany, looking at the Japanese sector. I just love how it all comes together.” – Andrew Allan
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
“I think this art stands out because it’s predominantly black, which the rest of them aren’t, the rest are trying to be very colourful. It’s remarkably different. The black is fitting, as the days of the Berlin Wall depict a very depressing atmosphere etc, [and] with Tokyo and New York it shows international influences in Berlin. All that combined, along with the depiction of the Berlin TV Tower and the big rotating Mercedes symbol, brings it all together quite nicely.” – Andrew

“I like this piece because it signifies freedom, so humans are able to overcome any type of obstacle and get to the final goal, and it’s colourful.” Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed

“We like this one because it’s very colourful and it’s a gloomy day, and because it reminds us of the Spanish painter Picasso.” – the Fernandez family Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed

“We like this because the hands appear to press the wall.” – Alice.

“I like this art because of the year 1989, which was an important year for German people, but also for me, as it’s the year I was born.” – Chiara

“I like the dove because it’s on the Berlin Wall, which represents sort of the peace when it was brought down, and then you’ve got the chain instead of the branches [the dove] normally holds, which represents the breaking of the peace. It’s a bit more symbolic than just the branches.” – Melissa Bowen Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
This piece of art was on an adjoining wall to the Berlin Wall that was adorned with equally impressive art. Tom enjoyed it with quiet appreciation.

“She says that she likes the controversy of it because it reflects modern times, especially the shock, as the people are dressed like really important people from the parliament, government people, and that makes it even more of a shock.” – Laura’s friend Matthew Tucker / BuzzFeed
