When Lebron James is busy choking in the 4th quarter and not getting it done in the NBA finals, he likes dunking over little kids in his spare time.
Why doesn’t he pick on somebody his own size?
The Blaze
This will probably not help Lebron James fix his tarnished image.
Not only did James dunk over a kid half his size at a recent basketball camp, but he also made the curious choice to stare the boy down afterwards like he was ready to throw down, and then walk away.
Classy.
James is a real jerk!

Obama says U.S. playing limited role in Libyan: Report says different
It has reached a point where everything that comes out of Obams’s mouth has to be taken with a grain of salt. He couldn’t even get the ages of his own children right.
Take about being detached from reality.
Daily Mail
U.S. forces are still flying hundreds of bombing raids over Libya even though the Obama administration claims that American armed forces are only playing a limited role in the conflict.
Since NATO’s Operation Unified Protector took over from the American-led Operation Odyssey Dawn on 31 March, the U.S. has flown hundreds of strike missions, according to United States Africa Command (AFRICOM).
The White House originally claimed that U.S. planes were mostly providing intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance and played down the number of bombing raids.
However AFRICOM spokeswoman Nicole Dalrymple said: 'U.S. aircraft continue to fly support missions, as well as strike sorties under NATO tasking.

Kaun Artist: DSK accuser recorded boating that she reeled in big fish
The unassuming West African woman the media portrayed as an innocent victim, turns out to be a predator on the lookout for a big pay day.
Dominique Strauss-Kahn was the true victim here!
When this story first broke, I ignored it because I thought it would be one of those stories that comes and goes. Besides, before this frenzied rush to judgment happened, I’d wager that 9 of 10 people didn’t know that the IMF was.
But, the story only grew because it had the template the Left loves to write about--poor working-class Muslim Black woman sexually assaulted by a rich and powerful French-White guy. It was the Duke Lacrosse case with an international reach.
The accuser had to be telling the truth because she was a minority, and they always have to be getting the short end of the stick in life according to the media. DSK was obviously guilty because he was a rich and powerful womanizer that gets what he wants.
The rich always screws the poor!
But, the facts are stubborn things.
New York Times
Twenty-eight hours after a housekeeper at the Sofitel New York said she was sexually assaulted by Dominique Strauss-Kahn, she spoke by phone to a boyfriend in an immigration jail in Arizona.
Investigators with the Manhattan district attorney’s office learned the call had been recorded and had it translated from a “unique dialect of Fulani,” a language from the woman’s native country, Guinea, according to a well-placed law enforcement official.
When the conversation was translated — a job completed only this Wednesday — investigators were alarmed: “She says words to the effect of, ‘Don’t worry, this guy has a lot of money. I know what I’m doing,’ ” the official said.
It was another ground-shifting revelation in a continuing series of troubling statements, fabrications and associations that unraveled the case and upended prosecutors’ view of the woman. Once, in the hours after she said she was attacked on May 14, she’d been a “very pious, devout Muslim woman, shattered by this experience,” the official said — a seemingly ideal witness.
Little by little, her credibility as a witness crumbled — she had lied about her immigration, about being gang raped in Guinea, about her experiences in her homeland and about her finances, according to two law enforcement officials. She had been linked to people suspected of crimes. She changed her account of what she did immediately after the encounter with Mr. Strauss-Kahn. Sit-downs with prosecutors became tense, even angry. Initially composed, she later collapsed in tears and got down on the floor during questioning. She became unavailable to investigators from the district attorney’s office for days at a time.
Now the phone call raised yet another problem: it seemed as if she hoped to profit from whatever occurred in Suite 2806.
The story of the woman’s six-week journey from seemingly credible victim, in the eyes of prosecutors, to a deeply unreliable witness, is drawn from interviews with law enforcement officials, statements from the woman’s lawyer and a letter from prosecutors to Mr. Strauss-Kahn’s defense team released in court on Friday. Some of the events were confirmed by both law enforcement officials and the women’s lawyer; others rely solely on law enforcement officials. In the end, it was the prosecutors’ assessment of the housekeeper’s credibility that led them to downgrade their confidence in the case and agree on Friday that Mr. Strauss-Kahn could be freed from house arrest.

UK woman Gemma Westmoreland with 34J breasts gets reduction-reduced 14 cups sizes
The Sun
A WOMAN has had her bust reduced by 14 cup sizes because she was fed up with being groped by strangers.
Tormented Gemma Westmoreland had her giant 34J breasts shrunk to a more manageable 32C after tiring of the unwanted attention.
The 26-year-old shed a whopping one-a-half stone and dropped from a size 16 to an 8 after the NHS op.
Gemma, from Barnsley, South Yorks, says she was jeered in the street, regularly had both men and women grab her chest on nights out and needed to wear TWO bras for support before she went under the knife.
Grope
She said: "Some girls might like big boobs but for me it was an absolute nightmare. I was getting unwanted attention not just from men but also from women.
"When I went on a night out in Barnsley people seemed to think they could just grope me. The same thing happened when I went to other towns.
"It was always the same, I would be walking down the street and people would start jeering and shouting 'they can't be real' and other insulting remarks.
"It reached a situation where it was embarrassing to go for a night out. I wasn't wearing low cut outfits or always showing a lot of cleavage. But it was obvious by my size that I had big boobs and I had just become a figure of fun.
"A lot of women these days are wanting boob jobs to make their breasts bigger but in my case it was the opposite. I just wanted to be able to go out without all the unwanted attention and groping.
"The surgeons were absolutely brilliant and I am so glad I had the operation.
Government Shutdown in Minnesota is a battle tax and spend Liberals and fiscally responsible GOPers
In Minnesota, their Democrat governor wants to tax the rich, while Republicans in the legislature don’t want taxes raised on anyone, least of all the job creators.
Where have you heard this before?
It’s a familiar song Democrats love to play to pit one group of Americans against the other. The Dems simply never learn that when you try and tax the rich, they leave the state or the country for a better environment to proper. When that happens the rest of the people left in the state are hit with tax increases anyway to make of the difference to fund Democrats wild spending.
It’s a pretty simple concept Liberals can never get through their thick heads.
Star Tribune
Dayton renewed his call to tax the rich; GOP pointed to harm of long-term debt. The governor and legislative leaders worked into the evening in a last-ditch bid for resolution.
Talks imploded Thursday between DFL Gov. Mark Dayton and Republican legislative leaders in the final hours before a midnight deadline, and Minnesota began a historic government shutdown.
"This is a night of deep sorrow for me," Dayton said in an address at 10 p.m. that was punctuated by jeers and hisses from Republicans, including some lawmakers.
The governor said his last offer would have raised income taxes only on those earning more than $1 million a year -- an estimated 7,700 Minnesotans, or 0.3 percent of all taxpayers, according to the Revenue Department.
Republicans rejected the proposal, Dayton said, because they "prefer to protect the richest handful of Minnesotans at the expense of everyone else."
Republican leaders made their own statement, saying Dayton's proposal for dealing with the projected $5 billion deficit would cause irreparable harm to the state's economy for generations.
"We will not saddle our children and grandchildren with mounds of debts, with promises for funding levels that will not be there in the future," said House Speaker Kurt Zellers, R-Maple Grove. "This is debt that they can't afford. It's debt that we can't afford right now."
Earlier, as it became clear there would be no deal, Republicans staged a sit-in in the legislative chambers, demanding Dayton call a special session to keep the state running.
"Our guys, obviously, are very comfortable with where we are," Zellers said, standing in the Minnesota House chamber at 8:30 p.m.
The political fight that has dominated the Capitol since January now will play out in public, as both sides try to win over Minnesotans in the hope that public sentiment will force the other side to a deal.
