New Jersey diner waitresses criticize Gov. Christie’s minimum wage views

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/nj-diner-waitresses-diss-christie-minimum-wage-views-article-1.1984979

With the governor on the campaign trial at the Mastoris Diner in Bordentown Township, waitress Stacey Ellis said his remarks showed zero empathy for workers like her. ‘Maybe he should take one of our jobs for a week, like a training program, and try to itemize your bills,’ she said.

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) blamed President Barack Obama for creating the conditions that allowed the Islamic State to flourish in the Middle East, and declared that in his long life, he’s never seen a worse administration.

“What’s happening in the Middle East today is not like a hurricane or an earthquake or a dust cloud that’s just sort of an accident of nature,” McCain said Monday in an interview with KFYI radio in Arizona. “It is because of a failed, feckless foreign policy on the part of this president, which we’re going to be paying for for a long, long time.”

medical examiner's findings were clearly influenced by police - Oklahoma City

Results of a private autopsy on a man who died following a confrontation in front of the Warren Theatre differ from a report from the state medical examiner.

The private autopsy found Luis Rodriguez, 44, died from asphyxia, attorneys for Rodriguez’s widow said at a news conference Tuesday.

Rodriguez died Feb. 15 following an encounter with five law enforcement officers outside the Warren Theatre in Moore. Three Moore police officers and two game wardens struggled to handcuff Rodriguez in the parking lot.

The state medical examiner said Rodriguez died of a heart condition known as cardiac arrhythmia, brought on by physical restraint. Cleveland County District Attorney Greg Mashburn announced June 20 he would not file charges on the officers.
