Obama’s phone call priorities seem out of whack [corrected]

Editor’s note: After publishing this post, it came to our attention that President Obama reportedly called the families of Brian Terry and Amb. Stevens. Twitchy apologizes for the error.

In the interest of transparency, Twitchy does not remove posts once they have been published. The original post remains below.

President Obama has yet to comment on the killing of U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Harold Greene in an attack in Afghanistan that wounded many others. It’s hard not to notice the situations Obama comments on publicly when he wants to, not to mention the phone calls he finds time for:

Obama phone calls:

• Brian Terry's family ❌ • Sandra Fluke ✔️ • Amb Chris Stevens family ❌ • Jason Collins ✔️ • General Green's family ❌— Hair (@SHannitysHair) August 06, 2014

Oof!

‘In the shadows?!’: Colorado to issue driver’s licenses to illegals Friday

http://twitter.com/#!/IngrahamAngle/status/495023450592145408

What’s this about living in the shadows? Colorado will begin issuing driver’s licenses and other state IDs to illegal immigrants Friday. Bloomberg News reports:

Undocumented immigrants in Colorado may face waits of a year or more to obtain drivers licenses under a program starting tomorrow, as thousands seeking to apply overwhelm an online scheduling system and available staff.

When the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles started accepting appointments from foreign nationals online July 1, it received as many as 107,500 page views an hour, crashing the system for several days. The DMV expects to process 9,551 applicants through September.

Laura Ingraham’s followers aren’t fans of the idea.

The last time we saw the Kansas City Police Department having fun with Twitter was earlier this week, when they asked the public not to commit crimes during the Royals game. Friday, the police had some more fun with Twitter by announcing the discovery of a deceased hair extension at 39th and Benton.

Katie Pavlich urges #SGS13 attendees to debunk the media narrative

http://twitter.com/#!/Indepgirlism/status/366347597025251328

Smart Girl Politics Action’s annual summit kicked off this morning in Indianapolis, Ind., with a trip to the gun range and wrapped up this evening with speeches by Katie Pavlich and Georgia Senate candidate Karen Handel. Pavlich stressed the importance of debunking the media narrative and then got right to it, putting Nancy Pelosi and Sandra Fluke on notice that they do not represent her when they speak of behalf on American women.

Pavlich also took on NOW and the modern feminist movement.

Pavlich wrapped up the night by accepting this year’s Breitbart Spirit Award, which Dana Loesch successfully transported home last year after the TSA confirmed it was a trophy and not a bomb.
