  As Obama admits in “Dreams,” Gramps hangs out in otherwise all-black bars and pals around with his communist soulmate and sex merchant, Frank Marshall Davis. Did a black woman – perhaps a friend of Davis’ – give birth to a child of Dunham’s? Might that explain what Obama describes as “the complicated, unspoken transaction between the two men”? Or, another possibility, was Davis the father of Ann’s baby, as he, too, matches the description of “Pop” in all salient details?

  STOCKHOLM, Sweden, – A Swedish woman said she nearly fainted when animal shelter workers called to say they had found her cat after nine years. Vera Dettmann said the then-3-year-old cat, Lakrits, ran away shortly after her family moved to Stockholm in 2001 and they could find no trace of their pet during months of searching, The Local reported Friday. Dettmann said there were sightings of a cat matching Lakrits’ description in 2008, but she did not allow herself to believe the cat might still be alive. However, Dettmann received a phone call Thursday from workers at a cat refuge,…

“The most important political office is that of the private citizen”
Justice Louis D. Brandeis

Were it not clear before yesterday in the manner which Glenn Beck sandbagged and ^[2]set a trap ^[3] for surging ^[4] Texas gubernatorial candidate Debra Medina ^[5] who was rising in the polls ^[6] and closing in on ^[7] establishment insiders Rick Perry ^[8] and Kay Bailey Hutchinson ^[9], it should be clear now that Glenn Beck ^[2] is an inside job ^[10], an establishment status quo shill masquerading ^[11] and posing as a revolutionary. His job is to obfuscate the truth, to serve as an outlet for the supremely misguided and ill informed in America, a master manipulator ^[12], a minister of disinformation and propaganda telling authorized truths ^[13] as a card carrying member of America’s propaganda matrix ^[14].

The original Tea Party Movement ^[15] which coalesced around the candidacy of Ron Paul ^[16] was hijacked ^[17] and infiltrated ^[18] by Neocon’s ^[19] who have built a front around Republican Establishment insiders and put forth folks like Sarah Palin ^[20], Rick Perry et al etc. who are not Tea Party Constitutionalists ^[17] to distract the original goals of the movement to lead it down a path of irrational behavior which can easily be discredited ^[21]. You can thank Palin’s sponsor ^[22], William H. Kristol ^[23] of The Weekly Standard ^[24] and one of the principal co-founders of The Project for the New American Century ^[25] (”PNAC”) for the rise of an agent of distraction in the form of Sarah Palin ^[26]. While he lurks in the shadows his puppets do the work of diluting, discrediting the truly independent voices representing the heart and soul of America, voices like Debra Medina ^[5] who is the Tea Party candidate for Governor in Texas. Beck’s antics or so called “mad genius” ^[27] may have thrown a monkey wrench ^[28] into the candidacy of Debra Medina ^[5], if only because from Beck ^[29]operates from the confines of a more powerful platform ^[30] than any one candidate. Until 9/11 the McCarthy era ^[31] was a period of history that I understood only from history books, the History Channel ^[32] and Hollywood movies. It was a period of American history that seemed so unbelievable and unlikely to ever happen again, given the lessons one would assume that we would have learned from it. That is until a new McCarthyism ^[33] was ushered in during the Bush/Cheney ^[34] era and has continued ^[35] to this day ^[36] by folks like Glenn Beck ^[37].

Corporate Media Smears Medina For Expressing View Shared By Majority Of Americans

Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com ^[1]
Friday, February 12, 2010

The attack dog corporate media, in cahoots with loathsome phony neo-con crybaby Glenn Beck, are once again attempting to manufacture reality by smearing Debra Medina for expressing a view shared by the vast majority of Americans in an effort to purge her from the Texas gubernatorial race.

Fox News blowhard Glenn Beck attempted to set up Medina on his radio show yesterday by asking her if she believed the U.S. government was involved in 9/11.

“I think some very good questions have been raised in that regard,” Medina said. “There are some very good arguments, and I think the American people have not seen all the evidence there, so I have not taken a position on that.”

Medina’s response was measured and even less vehement that than six of the ten 9/11 commissioners ^[2], who have all gone on the record to discuss how the government lied about the official story.

Furthermore, in merely refusing to completely accept the official version of events, Medina stands firmly with the majority of Americans. An October 2006 CBS/New York Times poll ^[3] found that only 16% of Americans thought the government told the truth about 9/11 and the intelligence prior to the attacks. Medina is in agreement with no less than 84% of Americans who do not readily accept the official story as true.

Dan Licht, NPS biologist for the Northern Plains Region led a team of five researchers who authored the paper published in BioScience.

  Scientists have identified areas of the brain that, when damaged, lead to greater spirituality. The findings hint at the roots of spiritual and religious attitudes, the researchers say. The study, published in the Feb. 11 issue of the journal Neuron, involves a personality trait called self-transcendence, which is a somewhat vague measure of spiritual feeling, thinking, and behaviors. Self-transcendence “reflects a decreased sense of self and an ability to identify one’s self as an integral part of the universe as a whole,” the researchers explain. Before and after surgery, the scientists surveyed patients who had brain tumors removed. The surveys…

Obama’s 2011 Budget Allocates $4 Billion For ACORN

  The Washington Times is adding ACORN to the list of outrageous earmarks in Obama’s fiscal 2011 budget. ACORN, the embezzlement-prone, voter-registration-fraud-plagued, leftist community organizing group, is slated to receive nearly $4 billion from a taxpayer-funded slush fund. The money will come from the Community Development Block Grant, one of the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s longest-running programs. The HUD Web site cryptically defines the grant’s purpose as providing “communities with resources to address a wide range of unique community development needs,” not a reassuring description given the group’s recent past history of aiding the community through gratuitous misappropriation of…

  There is, I think, an amazing political fact right now that is hiding in plain sight and is rich with implications. It was there in President Obama’s Jan. 25, pre-State of the Union interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer, who was pressing him about his political predicaments. “I’d rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president,” he said. “And I—and I believe that.” Now this is the sort of thing presidents say, and often believe they believe, but at the end of the day they all want two terms. Except that Mr. Obama shows every sign of…

  The New York Times’ frontpage headline this morning is “Obama Fares Better in Poll Than G.O.P.” According to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll, more Americans blame former President George W. Bush for the bad economy than they do the current president, Barack Obama. More of those polled are upset with the Republican Party than they are with either the Democratic Party or Obama. In short, while the New York Times/CBS News poll found that 62% of respondents said that the country was headed in the wrong direction and that Obama’s own approval rating was at its lowest point…

Who Owns Your PC? New Anti-Piracy Windows 7 Update “Phones Home” to Microsoft Every 90 Days

  Greetings. Sometimes a seemingly small software update can usher in a whole new world. When Microsoft shortly pushes out a Windows 7 update with the reportedly innocuous title “Update for Microsoft Windows (KB971033)” — it will be taking your Windows 7 system where it has never been before. And it may not be a place where you want to go. Imagine that you’re sitting quietly in your living-room at your PC, perhaps watching YouTube. Suddenly, a pair of big, burly guys barge into your house and demand that you let them check your computer to make sure that it’s “genuine”…

The future of policing: Dissidents to be tortured into compliance by marauding unmanned vehicles

Illustrating once again that the prison planet being built around us far outstrips anything Aldous Huxley or George Orwell ever imagined, a Wired News report details how police forces worldwide are preparing to unveil drone aircraft that can not only conduct surveillance of protesters, but also zap them into submission with non-lethal weapons.

As part of their ongoing mission to “protect and serve” the new world order, cops across the world are getting access to military drones which allow them to “carry out surveillance on everyone from protesters and antisocial motorists to fly-tippers,” reports Wired News ^[2].

The report details how the future of policing will resemble something approaching a combination of They Live and The Running Man, with unmanned drones replacing police helicopters whizzing around everywhere torturing and knocking out anyone who misbehaves.

Muslim-American body issues fatwa against airport body scanners

  Times of India ^ | February 12, 2010

  WASHINGTON: Some Muslim-American groups are supporting a fatwa issued by a body of Islamic scholars forbidding Muslims from going through full body scanners at airports, a media report said. The Fiqh Council of North America issued the religious ruling this week that says going through the airport scanners would violate Islamic rules on modesty, Free Press reported. “It is a violation of clear Islamic teachings that men or women be seen naked by other men and women,” reads the fatwa issued Tuesday. “Islam highly emphasises haya (modesty) and considers it part of faith. The Quran has commanded the believers, both…

Increasing Government Power Threatens Freedom

  Government is taking us a long way down the Road to Serfdom. That doesn’t just mean that more of us must work for the government. It means that we are changing from independent, self-responsible people into a submissive flock. The welfare state kills the creative spirit. F.A. Hayek, an Austrian economist living in Britain, wrote “The Road to Serfdom” in 1944 as a warning that central economic planning would extinguish freedom. The book was a hit. Reader’s Digest produced a condensed version that sold 5 million copies. Hayek meant that governments can’t plan economies without planning people’s lives. After all,…

  Churchill was right, history is written by the victors, and no one believes that more than than President Obama, which is ironic as one of the president’s first moves was insulting our ally Great Britain, by refusing their gift of bust of Winston Churchill. The other night, our SCHMOTUS, Joe Biden, stunned audiences by claiming Iraq will go down as Obama’s greatest achievements. Obama’s opposed almost everything the the previous administration did to win the war including the Surge. Obama’s only achievement in Iraq, is keeping with the plans left by the Bush administration, including the withdrawal plan. The same…

  Relax, Beck fans — Glenn isn’t going soft on Republicans, whom he diagnoses as “Suck-o-Rama.” He’s not even really complaining about the Democrats being worse, but merely noting that Barack Obama is in a Rama all by himself. Beck uses his chalkboard to do a comparison between deficits as a percentage of GDP from actual budgets during the Bush and Clinton presidencies to the White House projections for future budget deficits under the Obama plan. In fact, Beck generously attributes 2009 to Bush, even though Bush never signed that budget, and offers to disregard this year’s deficit (projected at 10.6%…

Feds push for tracking cell phones

  Two years ago, when the FBI was stymied by a band of armed robbers known as the “Scarecrow Bandits” that had robbed more than 20 Texas banks, it came up with a novel method of locating the thieves. FBI agents obtained logs from mobile phone companies corresponding to what their cellular towers had recorded at the time of a dozen different bank robberies in the Dallas area. The voluminous records showed that two phones had made calls around the time of all 12 heists, and that those phones belonged to men named Tony Hewitt and Corey Duffey. A jury eventually…

Texan Medina: U.S. involved in bringing down World Trade Center

  Dallas News ^ | 11 February 2010 | April Castro

  A Republican gubernatorial candidate said Thursday she has questions about whether the U.S. government was involved in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks — a statement she swiftly backed away from and one that drew immediate criticism from her better-known rivals in the race. Gov. Rick Perry and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison dismissed the comments made by Debra Medina on the Glenn Beck Show that there were “some very good arguments” that the U.S. was involved in bringing down the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. “I don’t have all of the evidence there, Glenn,” Medina said. “I think some…

How Come Marc Lamont Hill can call John Mayer a “White boy” and Not Be Called a Racist for It?

David Horowitz’s NewsRealblog ^ | David Swindle

Joe Klein had a great post today calling out Marc Lamont Hill on last night’s O’Reilly Factor. Those new to NewsReal Blog might be unfamiliar with our history of confronting Hill for his extreme views and for Fox and O’Reilly for putting him on as a foreign policy expert when he specializes in hip-hop culture. NewsReal Blog and Accuracy in Media were successful in getting Hill fired as a paid contributor at Fox. Never the less, he’s still featured occasionally as an unpaid commentator. One of NRB’s primary gripes with Hill is that he’s dishonest. When on Fox News

  Black History Month really is the liberal democrats’ annual fundraiser to hit up guilt ridden whites for more entitlements says Lloyd Marcus, an unabashed and unhyphenated America lover. He condemns what he calls “white people and America suck month.” Marcus, a conservative patriot who sang at the 9/12 rally in D.C, so loves his cause he has brought out an American Tea Party CD featuring such great songs as “Our Wonderful Country,” “American Tea Party Anthem,” and his pro life song based on a true story, “Hello Mom It’s Me.” Marcus says every February our liberal media and many democrats…

Jerusalem —- February 11, 2010…… Upon returning to Israel from an humanitarian mission with Israel Flying Aid in Haiti I have been asked several times – how was it? At first, I usually state that the horror of human suffering in Haiti goes beyond articulation. What I do not mention is how many lives could have been lost as a result of relying upon Facebook to communicate with other humanitarian, governmental and media organizations.

I have been on the Internet since co-creating the first commercial Website in Israel in 1995. The first Website for the Israel Defense Forces, the Office of the Israel Prime Minister and the first online news organization – Israel News Agency. In this time I have reported through the Israel News Agency and Google News the good, the bad and the Islamic terrorism for which Israel has suffered.

I have also reported on one Website which I see to be nothing more and nothing less than evil – Wikipedia. Wikipedia, the encyclopedia that “anyone can edit”, had the honor of hurting more people through slander and libel then any other medium.

Now comes Facebook…

You have your Sean Hannity, Bill’ Reilly, Greta Van Susteren asking the hard legal questions and more.

  More than 200 years ago a new idea about the rights of individuals and the rights of government began as a tax protest in Boston Harbor. “No taxation without representation” was the rallying cry that led to the new concept that all government power and authority should derive from the consent of those governed. Is a second American tax revolt now needed to restore that noble but increasingly tattered idea?

  There´s a sign in a highway in Minnesota (I-35) with a photo of President Bush waving at drivers, with the words “Miss me yet?.” This sign in Minnesota reflects how much Americans are missing George W. Bush. A non-scientific poll in (leftist) web site AOL News shows 52% miss President Bush, 14% Miss him somewhat, and 34% Don´t miss him. People in both sides of the aisle are beginning to realize the era of hopey and changey is dead, because socialism didn´t work. Many Obama supporters (the moderates, the socialists will never wake up… Brain death) are turning their back…

  Long ago, executions of convicts were carried out in public view. Then they were carried out of public sight, in chambers and prisons, with a red lamp glowing to indicate that an execution is taking place. I have started this thread because I want to ask this question: Should prisoner executions be televised live?Yes or No?

  Fearful Vallejo residents thinking about arming themselves after a rash of violent crime may be jumping the gun, police said. Police Department spokesman Abel Tenorio said he has read online comments from people saying they’re alarmed and may arm themselves — something police don’t recommend. “The Constitution allows citizens who are not otherwise prohibited from having a gun to have a firearm in their home,” Vallejo Police Department Support Services Manager Bill Powell said. “But we don’t want any kind of tragedy to occur because someone got a gun and they’re not familiar with it.” Unless you’re licensed to carry…

Burges is one of 11 House and Senate sponsors and includes 25 cosponsors for a total of 40 supporters of the bill: Despite the concerns of the opposition commenters attached to this posting, Rep. Burges’ thoughts on the basis for presidential eligibility qualification are truly hers and do not represent adding further qualifications to Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution; to wit: B.
