Government Pursuit of LtCol Chessani Continues; Marine Ordered to Face Board of Inquiry

ANN ARBOR, MI – Nearly four years after the so-called “Haditha Massacre,” an investigation conducted by over 65 NCIS agents (Naval Criminal Investigative Service) ─ the largest investigation in that agency’s history ─ with the expenditure of millions of taxpayer dollars, and prosecution losses at every stage of the criminal process, the government has decided to give up on the criminal prosecution against Marine LtCol Jeffrey Chessani.  Nonetheless, the battle for this loyal Marine officer continues.

On Friday, August 28, 2009,  the new general in charge of LtCol Chessani’s case, Marine LtGen George Flynn, Commanding General of the Marine Corps Combat Development Command in Quantico, VA, decided that criminal charges were not warranted.  Instead, he ordered LtCol Chessani to face an administrative procedure called a “Board of Inquiry.”  [see order here]

House Resolution 615

Over the past few weeks, members of Congress and the American people have come to know the details of the Administration’s proposed health care plan. Call it whatever you like, I believe this proposal is nothing more than government-run health care. As a physician, I am amazed at the number of bureaucrats in this House who are quick to claim a government-run health care plan is the reform this country needs. In response to this, I have offered a resolution that will offer members of Congress an opportunity to put their money where their mouth is, and urge their colleagues who vote for legislation creating a government-run health care plan to lead by example and enroll themselves in the same public plan.

You have to wonder when you see statistics like this (through 9:30 this morning):

Remove SPY, ETFC and LEHMQ (none of which trade on the NYSE) from the list and you get 606 million shares.

How many shares have traded in total with one hour in?

1.491 billion.

Forty percent of the volume is comprised of four used dogfood stocks, just as we’ve seen for the last couple of weeks – all people passing shares back and forth among each other, many of it being “computer HFT games.”

The other used dog-food stocks (LEHMQ and ETFC) are really no better; they just don’t trade on the NYSE. Lehman is particularly ridiculous as that’s a formally-bankrupt company!

Fannie and Freddie are two of the most outrageous abuses I’ve seen in a long time, second only to AIG. All three of these should be delisted as their equity value is quite literally bupkis.

This just goes to illustrate – the market is currently being levitated on literal trash. Again today we see the Casino trying to suck in people; I got emails from two more associates over the weekend telling me that their “advisors” are telling them “you have too much cash allocated; now is the time to buy.”

Now is the time to buy, after a 50% move?! Where the hell were these so-called “advisors” at SPX 666!

Obama: The Worst is Yet to Come

Obama:  The Worst is Yet to Come
By Sher Zieve

If it wasn’t before, the ultimate purpose of Dictator Barack Hussein Obama should now be clear to even his most die-hard fans.  With Obama’s planned and now-revised Cybersecurity Act of 2009, his inordinately broad and sweeping powers to take control of the Internet AND private networks is making its way through the Senate.

83 Percent of All Statistics are Made Up on the Spot…

83 Percent of All Statistics are Made Up on the Spot
By Dr. Tim Ball

Saki (H.H Munro) said, “A little inaccuracy sometimes saves tons of explanation.” Today we have tons of inaccuracy and very little explanation. Most inaccuracies come from claims based on non-existent or inadequate historical data, extremely crude estimates, computer model projections, or are simply incorrect. It’s prevalent in environmental issues but particularly bad with climate and animal extinctions. The reason is because they’re the most politicized, which automatically takes them further from the truth. As Henry Adams said, “Practical politics consists of ignoring the truth.”

Alinsky, Beck, Satan and Me…

http://newsrealblog.com/2009/08/16/alinsky-beck-satan-and-me/
For this first post, let’s just focus on the dedication of the book — to Satan:

“Lest we forget, an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical:” (Pause there for second. Now continue): “from all our legends, mythology, and history(and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”

So Alinsky begins by telling readers what a radical is. He is not a reformer of the system but its would-be destroyer. This is something that in my experience conservatives have a very hard time understanding. Conservatives are altogether too decent, too civilized to match up adequately, at least in the initital stages of the battle, with their adversaries. They are too prone to give them the benefit of the doubt. They assume that radicals can’t really want to destroy a society that is democratic and liberal and has brought wealth and prosperity to so many. Oh yes they can. That is in fact the essence of what it means to be a radical — to be willing to destroy the values, structures and institutions that sustain the society we live in. Marx himself famously cited Alinsky’s first rebel (using another of his names — Mephistopheles): “Everything that exists deserves to perish.”

GOD HELP ME FIND AND SAVE AMERICA

BLESS THE TROOPS AND THEIR FAMILIES

August 29, 2009

Greetings

I have been asked recently and often: “Bean, what about joining or forming up a militia or something..should I look for one to join or even form my own group?”

Well, that’s a large undertaking to explain in a few simple words, but I’ll give a hack at it. You may be surprised, disappointed, or angry with the answer I give you but bear with me. I think there are things here to say and discuss before anyone gets as far as forming up armed platoons and picking leaders. First we need to look at some history concerning militias, take notes, this is all applicable to any modern day militia though the story is millennia old.

WHAT IS A MILITIA?

If you ask one group of people they’ll say they are armed patriots who operate training camps and plan to fight America’s enemies through use of military level force. Ask another group and they’ll say militias are weekend warriors who like parading around in camo outfits, shooting guns, drinking beer, and talking about how all the unamericans are gonna “get theirs.” The truth is more the former than the latter but both do exist certainly.

In the classic definition of a militia: it’s composed of a group of loosely organized citizens who are armed with their own personal weaponry and may be called upon through some prearranged signal to fight in unorthodox or guerrilla actions against an enemy invasion or coup attempt and it’s stated purpose is to save and preserve a government or community until the formal army can respond and assume control. These citizen soldiers may also be called upon to join the formal army at this point and continue to fight alongside them. This is a vast simplification but it will suffice for here.

The Middle Finger has always been the Kennedy family crest
The Collins Report ^ | August 31, 2009 | Kevin “Coach” Collins

I don’t know what the listed Kennedy family crest looks like. It may be a drunken “liberal lion” driving off a bridge for all I know.

Nevertheless, on Saturday during the funeral for “Sir” Edward Kennedy we got a glimpse of the real Kennedy family crest proudly displayed by one of Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg’s daughters Rose 21 or Tatiana 18.

One of these “lovely” damsels held up her middle finger to a FOX TV camera for her adoring fans to feast on.

The Kennedy family crest has always been the middle finger.

The patriarch of the family, Joseph senior regularly displayed the crest when he became rich as a bootlegger and openly supported the Nazis while ambassador to England during WW II.

In 1960 according to his family Sam Giancana was visited by Joseph Kennedy to offer him a deal: Giancana would get an “open door” to the Oval Office in return for his help in swinging Chicago to Kennedy. Keep in mind it’s common knowledge voting machines from Republican areas in Chicago disappeared. That was a big display of the Kennedy crest.

Major Bills to Defeat After August Recess ~ by Devvy Kidd

Major Bills to Defeat After August Recess
We the people must be unified in our actions. As I said, the Outlaws will be back in Washington, DC next week. There will be massive chaos to get several major pieces of unconstitutional legislation pushed through while creating “emergencies” on the side to keep everyone rattled. I believe at this time, instead of the normal break from 1 Oct until the following January, these buzzards are going to stay in session for longer than normal in an attempt to pass major pieces of legislation which will pick our bones clean……..

It is difficult these days not to come upon some pessimistic patriotic commentator expressing the fear that something called “martial law” may soon be imposed on this country, as the General Government’s response to a new “terrorist attack”, or to the economic and social chaos arising out of a collapse of the monetary and banking systems, or to some other dire event that frightens hapless Americans into trading a sure and certain loss of their liberties for a dollop of conjectural safety.

In an explosive interview by Dr. Laurie Roth on her syndicated West Coast radio show on August 7th with Douglas Hagmann — a respected journalist, director of the Northeast Intelligence Network, and longtime private investigator, and Judi McLeod, a prolific journalist and the managing editor of Canada Free Press — the reason for the media blackout about the birth-certificate issue was nothing less than organized Mafia-like dire threats to members of the media issued not only from the heads of major TV and radio stations but also from Federal Communication Commission officials!

According to Hagmann and McLeod, who conducted a nine-month investigation and documented their findings scrupulously, after Obama was elected but before he was inaugurated:
