Do You Qualify As A Domestic Terrorist?

Author: Mac Slavo

April 6th, 2011

A few weeks ago Bernard von NotHaus, purveyor of the gold/silver backed “Liberty Dollar”, was convicted on numerous charges including making, possessing, and selling his own coins, as well as conspiracy against the United States. Western District of North Carolina US attorney Anne Tompkins issued a Department of Justice press release that should raise blaring, high decibel sirens across the entire Union:

“Attempts to undermine the legitimate currency of this country are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism,” U.S. Attorney Tompkins said in announcing the verdict. “While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence, they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country,” she added. “We are determined to meet these threats through infiltration, disruption, and dismantling of organizations which seek to challenge the legitimacy of our democratic form of government.”

The definitions for what is or is not a “terrorist” are ambiguous as defined by the Patriot Act, and have been progressively, hastily and secretively expanded over the course of the last decade. A “terrorist,” it seems, is now anyone who actively engages in an activity – whether it’s violent, peaceful, public or private – perceived to threaten the legitimacy and/or stability of our government.

Magnate tells “Today” he has people in the Aloha State conducting on-the-ground research into the president’s birthplace.

MEREDITH VIEIRA: So, is the time right now for you?

DONALD TRUMP: Well, the time certainly is right. We’re a laughing stock as a country throughout the world. We’re being taken advantage of by other countries

***

MEREDITH VIEIRA: If you were President, would keep a military presence in Iraq indefinitely.

DONALD TRUMP: Let me just say something. There’s nobody more militaristic than me, but it’s also called attack the right target. Iran is going to take over Iraq, because we have de-neutered Iraq, you know that, in terms of their military. They’re gonna take them over very quickly as soon as we leave. If that’s gonna happen, they’re gonna take over the oil fields. The second biggest oil fields in the world. And if that’s gonna happen, I say we take over the oil fields…I would take over the oil fields, because otherwise, Iran is gonna take over the second biggest oil fields in the world….

Facebook beginning to feel wrath of conservatives

Facebook beginning to feel wrath of conservatives
Yahoo! News ^ | April 6, 2011

It’s a fairly typical day when Facebook has managed to spark the ire of man–including members of Congress, left and right–over its ever-evolving user privacy policies. Still, the company has managed to avoid pushing user patience to the point where people can’t maintain at least a base level of friendship. No significant block of the population has been moved to walk away from the site, much less take to the streets in protest.

But now, fueled by yesterday’s news that Facebook will host an online townhall meeting for the President, the company may be courting such a revolt by agitating a segment renowned for mobilizing and voicing their collective anger: modern conservative activists.

It’s the latest in a growing far right versus Facebook battle that began when the New York TimesAndrew Ross Sorkin recently reported that the social media giant was in talks to offer millions to former Obama White House press secretary Robert Gibbs to run its communications operation. The prospect of the move immediately raised eyebrows on the right, exemplified in comments to a post by Mike Riggs on the conservative website the Daily Caller–which also pointed out that Facebook had already hired a number of Obama administration alumni.

Crackbook would become much less addictive for conservative patriots” if the company hired Gibbs, opined one commenter. Another wrote, “More and more I might end up yanking my profile from facebook as each day goes by.”

Hollywood’s Red Dawn

“One of the most dangerous plots ever instigated for the overthrow of this Government has its headquarters in Hollywood.” The year was 1945. The speaker was Rep. John E. Rankin (D-Mississippi). The forum was the House Un-American Activities Committee.

Rankin was a racist, a bigot, and an overall nasty fellow. On this, however, he was absolutely right. The only problem is that he was 70 years too early. Of course, he was somewhat right when he spoke the words, too. Ronald Reagan was head of the Screen Actors Guild from 1947-1952, and again in 1959-1960. During that time, he watched as Communist revolutionaries infiltrated the unions, attempting to shut down the studios and turn the instruments of culture toward anti-American ideologies. They remained a vocal minority inside Hollywood, but a dangerous one.

Now, the threat is much greater. The threat remains Communist. It is no longer Russian, and it is no longer internal. The threat comes from abroad, and it comes in the form of cash.

Obama Shying Away From Entitlement Reform

Obama Shying Away From Entitlement Reform
Townhall.com ^ | April 6, 2011 | Donald Lambro

WASHINGTON — In the last three months, the biggest battle here has been about carving a relatively tiny amount of money out of this year’s $3.7 trillion budget.

But while Republicans, Democrats and the White House bickered over whether to cut anywhere from $61 billion to $33 billion — or else shut down the government — a far bigger battle looms in the months ahead over the fiscal 2012 budget and trillion dollar deficits as far as the eye can see.

House Republican budget leaders were expected to unveil their budget proposals Tuesday that called for spending reductions in the order of $6.2 trillion over the next decade. It tackles entitlements as well as discretionary spending cuts that will make this week’s fight over the fiscal 2011 budget look like an attempt to break into a child’s piggy bank.

The question is, will the emerging story be all about the GOP’s attempt to reform fiscally unsustainable entitlement programs, or about extreme spending increases by President Obama and the Democrats? To a large degree, that will depend on how the House GOP leadership frames the issue and their proposals. Done correctly, the story should be about the GOP reining in an irresponsible, spendthrift Congress whose budget policies have driven our country to the brink of bankruptcy.

Obama came into office in 2009 facing a budget deficit in the $400 billion range under President George W. Bush, largely the result of a fierce 2008-2009 recession that sharply cut federal tax revenues.

Obama Stumbling Through Speech in PA

Watching Obama make a speech at a wind power company in PA. Apparently no notes or TOTUS in sight. He’s stumbling, mumbling and jive talking his way through it. No reaction from the audience.–

NEW YORK— FOX News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the FOX News Channel (FNC) as well as content for other platforms including FOX News’ digital properties. Glenn intends to transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year.

Roger Ailes, Chairman and CEO of FOX News said, “Glenn Beck is a powerful communicator, a creative entrepreneur and a true success by anybody’s standards. I look forward to continuing to work with him.”

Glenn Beck said, “I truly believe that America owes a lot to Roger Ailes and FOX News. I cannot repay Roger for the lessons I’ve learned and will continue to learn from him and I look forward to starting this new phase of our partnership.”
