http://twitter.com/#!/toddstarnes/status/250031074405658625

The 64th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony was full of left-wing Hollyweirdo political jabs? Say it ain’t so!

It wasn’t just Julianne Moore’s Palin bashing and smarty pants commentary on the “electorial” process. Host Jimmy Kimmel took swipes at Republican actor Kelsey Grammer and Mitt Romney. And liberal bogeyman Chick-fil-A got not one, but two mentions.

Chick-Fil-A joke tally tonight… 2 #Emmys

First up, Kimmel played to Tinseltown progressives with a Chick-fil-A one-liner.

Hardy har har. Get it? Awesome progressives won’t eat Chick-fil-A. Because tolerance or something.

Next up, the cast of “Modern Family” appeared in a skit painting adorable 5-year-old actress Aubrey Anderson-Emmons as history’s greatest monster-in-training. And you know what little monsters eat while they mock gay people, right? Yep. Chick-fil-A sandwiches.

No, seriously: Wendy Davis nail art is a thing

http://twitter.com/#!/alicebolin/status/349743876157874176

What a woman chooses to do with her fingernails is a personal decision between her and her manicurist. And now, women fighting a proposed Texas law that would require them to make the choice to have an abortion within the first 5 months of pregnancy aren’t waiting for state Sen. Wendy Davis to show up on a campaign poster for governor; instead, they’re choosing to have their new hero emblazoned on their fingernails.

African Union launches US-backed force in hunt of Kony

http://twitter.com/#!/WillyFoReal/status/183694605320077312

After a YouTube video gained traction around the Globe, Joseph Kony is now the spotlight of multiple human rights activists around the world (and has been for several years).

Here’s the report from Haaretz:

The AU force aims to coordinate soldiers already hunting for Kony from South Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Central African Republic (CAR) and Uganda with logistical and intelligence help from Washington.

In October, U.S. President Barack Obama said he was sending 100 military advisers to the four countries involved in the new AU force.

“The Americans are playing a pivotal role in some aspects,” AU special envoy Francisco Madeira said on Saturday.

“They support us militarily, they support us with equipment, they support us with military advice, they support us even with intelligence and training,” he told reporters at its launch ceremony in the South Sudanese capital Juban. He gave no details on the troops’ strategy.

The force will be headquartered in Yambio in South Sudan near the border to the DRC. Units will be also based in Dungu in the DRC and Obo in the CAR, officials said.

UN Central Africa envoy Abou Moussa said the force had to capitalize on the high level of global pressure on Kony.

“We need to take advantage of the high level of interest, goodwill and political commitment to finally put an end to this crime.”

Zimmerman helps rescue family; ‘MSNBC tonight’ mockery springs into action

http://twitter.com/#!/charlescwcooke/status/359368210795085825

MSNBC and other media outlets might be really struggling to come up with an angle for this one, but fortunately many Twitter users are here to help.

George Zimmerman is often reported as being “in hiding,” but according to Florida authorities he made a recent public appearance:

http://twitter.com/#!/BreakingNews/status/359352751643303936

From ABC News:

The crash occurred at the intersection of I-4 and route Route 46, police said. The crash site is less than a mile from where Zimmerman shot Martin.

By the time police arrived, two people – including Zimmerman – had already helped the family get out of the overturned car, the sheriff’s office said. No one was reported to be injured.

Zimmerman was not a witness to the crash and left after speaking with the deputy, police said.

By the time the story is reported tonight (or should we say if it’s reported), it might sound much different.

Tweeters took the opportunity to predict how the story might be reported on #MSNBCTonight:

http://twitter.com/#!/BenHowe/status/359364746786508803 http://twitter.com/#!/KatiePavlich/status/359371127753150465 http://twitter.com/#!/Macs_Wax/status/359373067534876674 http://twitter.com/#!/RickSheridan/status/359371271580041217 http://twitter.com/#!/ERE1968/status/359374930447564800 http://twitter.com/#!/MBGlenn/status/359380840473559040 http://twitter.com/#!/libertychick80/status/359373710563618816

Or maybe MSNBC will avoid the Zimmerman rescue story altogether and stick to the kind of hard-hitting investigative journalism that has become their wheelhouse in recent days:

That sounds more like it.

Sen. Bernie Sanders comes out against Jack Lew for Treasury Secretary

http://twitter.com/#!/SenSanders/status/289461969700925440

As a supporter of the president, I remain extremely concerned that virtually all of his key economic advisers have come from Wall St.

He’s worried that Lew will be too … conservative?
