The Coders Rule

Those who WRITE THE CODE actually RULE virtual communities, because the code tells you what you can and cannot do by literally placing “digital” limits that are structurally unbreakable. This is something none of us can hope to ever escape from! Try as you might, if you use someone else’s platform, you are just “renting” and the “landlord” makes all the rules, rules that you either submit to or that, when broken, get you thrown out!

So what about those of us who are not that technically driven?

 

AT THE VERY LEAST we MUST become

A Day Of Infamy For The GOP Plantation Owners

Black Thursday- Will John Brown Ride Against The GOP Plantation Owners?

January 26, 2012 may become known as the beginning of the beginning of the end of the end of the establishment plantation’s hold over the freedom-seeking electorate. The freedom-seeking electorate (we call them “Freedomists”) understand and value life, the family, our Christian moral heritage, a fair and competitive free market, our Union of Popular and Democratic REPUBLICS, and a strong, prosperous, and free America that has achieved food, energy, and manufacturing independence.

On Thursday, January 26, 2012 the sky opened and, from the fonts of so-called “conservative media”, a barrage of outright lies, told in blazing sensational headlines, descended on one Newt Gingrich’s head. At one point the former conservative icon Matt Drudge had 14 such headlines scrawled all over his website, shocking people by its outright slanderous nature and blatant bias to help the establishment’s puppet, Mitt Romney.

The real issue is not this campaign, it is not about Romney or Gingrich or any one person; the real issue is the long night freedom-seekers have suffered as un-thanked and un-rewarded slaves on the establishment’s cleverly devised plantation. For the first time, all pretense is gone: the GOP as a plantation, true freedom-seekers as slaves, and the real plantation owners as well as their favorite “house slaves” were revealed against the clear backdrop of this ceaseless attack on someone that many (but no all) freedom-seekers saw as their BEST chance at freeing America from the Progressive freedom-takers.

Elliot Abrams led the attack with outright lies about Newt’s record as Speaker of the House: this once highly regarded man surrendered his reputation in service of the establishment agenda. He and the so-called “conservative” outlets who touted his bilge were exposed as house slaves.

Then there is the rallying of the “masters” to their puppet- the Bush family, Bob Dole, Karl Rove, all the top GOP “leaders”, and the like. This coterie of defenders showed the world that they were not happy with this slave uprising! They would treat Newt Gingrich like John Brown and teach the rest of us a lesson we’d never forget.

Finally, we saw who the slaves are: freedom-seekers who are expected to make defeating Obama so much of a priority that they give their money, time, resources and votes (the fruits of their labor out in the fields) to WHOMEVER the establishment picks as their new “boss”. The very notion that we, the slaves, could strike out on our own and urge our fellow Americans to stand behind our agenda, instead of just a person, is met with derision.

John Brown rose up in righteous indignation against the idea that some people could own other people, but it remains to be seen whether a “John Brown” freedom-seeker will rise up and lead the slaves off of the plantation, or even what that might look like. We can be certain that what happened on January 26, 2012, and what is ongoing, has the potential of igniting a slave rebellion that could be far more successful in the 21st century than John Brown’s failed attempt in the 19th century.

America and The Progressive Socialist Threat

The Stark Choice- Freedom Or Obama
- Future generations may indeed use the word “Obama” in the same way that Norwegians remember the name “Quisling”. Quisling was a man who placed his ideology, an ideology rejected by Norwegians, above his country. Even if the People didn’t want his brand of national socialism, he was determined to impose it on the nation. Not even the brutal occupation and terrorization of Norway by the Germans phases this man, he keeps pushing until the bitter end, right up until the moment of his execution.

Obama is not going to be executed, and he doesn’t need a foreign power to help him, in fact, he is far more popular than Quisling ever was. The comparison between Obama and Quisling is rooted in the fact that both men held radical ideological views that, were they to be out in the open, their countrymen would reject. Obama’s form of progressive socialism is globalist, not nationalist, and, unlike Quisling, he is not at all up front about it.

Obama does have a radical ideological agenda, and he doesn’t care HOW it gets imposed. The facade of “democracy” is all well and good, until that democracy stands in his way. During his 2012 State of the Union speech, Obama as much as declared his agenda- he was going to get his agenda done, “with or without Congress”. This was nothing short of a declaration of war on freedom and democracy itself, but most did not see it as such, most chalked it up to “political rhetoric”. Forget the ideal of “the republic, for which it stands” (the flag), Obama’s only flag is the bright red flag of his progressive socialist ideology.

With his army of Union stormtroopers, a progressive media establishment that towes his party line, complicit courts, and dozens of well-catered to special interest groups, Obama has set up all the preconditions for an outright dictatorship, even his rheotric was that of a dictator: every idea but his own he lables as “partisan”, only his ideas are “patriotic”, and indeed the very history of the nation’s founding principles is rewritten in progressive socialist terminology. His opponent demonized and divided, his army of street rioters at the ready, with untold powers over the means of communication, there remains only a pretext, whether real or manufactured.

This does not mean that if a reach for ultimate power, and the termination of the Republic, is attempted that it will succeed, but as each day passes without united opposition to the real enemy of freedom, the man and his minions who Occupy the White House, it becomes more likely that any attempt to rid the nation of the progressive socialist threat to its existence as a free Republic will be resisted with, how shall we, “less than civil means.” The progressive socialists think this is their last shot to create a progressive utopian super-state that will make its billionair sponsors supremely rich and powerful. Those who fail to understand that this group of people wants to end America as a free Republic and create what is essentially a soviet socialist “republic” are failing to see the stark truth.

The election in 2012 will determine, once and for all perhaps, whether the progressive socialists can be removed from power peacefully or whether we will see the nation torn asunder by tyranny or even some form of civil war. Progressive socialists are the real enemy, everyone else had better unify, behind someone, right now, or watch this nation suffer, possibly unto death! Whatever you think of Romney’s flip-flopping or Newt’s filandering or “lobbying”, none of these men are hard-core dedicated progressive socialists, despite the frantic rantings of Glenn Beck.

This will only sound over the top to people who refuse to believe that the unthinkable could come to our shores. It has happened in this nation before and it has happened in many other nations, often with seeming “suddenness” that is “shocking”. The signs are there, clear as day, that the progressive socialists want a dictatorship headed by Obama. Obama has shown his contempt for democracy and freedom, and has never hesitated to put his ideology and his party ahead of the interest of the nation.

Whatever happens, future generations will see in the name “Obama” a byword for “putting radical ideology ahead of the nation”

Santorum Wins Iowa Caucus despite Iowa GOP fixers

Santorumm Iowa Caucus
Santorum Wins Iowa Caucus: GOP Cronies Call It A “Tie”

Before the certified results were in, even with outstanding allegations of vote-counting errors, the Iowa GOP was in the tank for Romney, calling him a “winner” on the basis of an 8-point, unconfirmed lead. The Establishment then waxed eloquent about the “Romney win” and, after a not-suprising New Hampshire win (boosted by Democrats and Independents), the narrative was that Romney was the only candidate since the inception of dirt to win both Iowa and New Hampshire.

Now we have the certified results and, what do you know, a full 8 precints’ vote counts are declared “unreliable” and, while Santorum has won, with 34 votes, the GOP establishment is pushing the storyline that “it’s a tie.”

Santorum won, and many suspect, as we reported earlier, that somebody was monkeying around with the vote counts to ensure a Romney win. That we now have this new number and 8 whole precints’ numbers “gone” merely adds credence to such suspicions. The fix is in, and your vote is not important to the elites, who want what they want even if most of the People don’t want it.

Mitt Romney is the candidate of the center-right progressives who control the GOP, mere puppets of the Bush-Rove plutocracy and they will do whatever it takes to win.

While this controversy rages, Matt Strawn, the Iowa GOP chairman, went on TV to tout the importance of the Iowa caucuses, and tried to soft-peddle what was a botched vote. The problem for Strawn is that the Iowa GOP called Romney a winner, but now, with Santorum ahead by 34, it is called a tie. Strawn talked over Martha McCowen on FoxNews, ignoring her as he droned on, trying to miminimize the descrepencies, but everyone knows that Strawn, at best, is incompetent and, at worse, is monkeying with a vote count to help Mitt Romney.

The Santorum victory is being denied by the GOP establishment for no other reason but that they want Romney and will do anything to help him win.

Many are saying that this calls the whole Iowa claim to first-status into question. To claim to have a right to vote first before every other state and then be caught either fixing a vote or just flubbing it up badly doesn’t make much sense: perhaps a more just approach would be a lottery to choose the first few states and stop giving the same states a disproportionate voice in who will win their party’s nomination

Skewing The Results In Iowa

Who really won the Iowa Caucus vote and who is being accused of potentially skewing the results?

What happened in an Appanoose County caucus where 53 people showed up in Moulton to cast their votes?

Edward True, a Ron Paul supporter from Moulton, looked at the caucus vote results on the GOP website that tallies each caucus’s vote totals and, to put it mildly, he begs to differ with the GOP numbers. According to True, the GOP chiefs claim, on their website, that their were 22 votes cast for Romney in a caucus of only 53 people. The problem is that if True is, well, true, then the actual vote for Romney was 2, not 22.

The Iowa GOP chiefs are circling the wagons claiming that True is not a precinct captain, has no official position, and should stop talking about results. Meanwhile, they refuse to actually discuss the election results, claiming that the vote has not yet been “certified.” But this changing of results did not stop the GOP chiefs from reversing other numbers after it was allegedly discovered that  a vote tally in favor of Santorum was in favor of Romney instead.

Could it be that the Moulton Caucus results being potentially skewed by GOP chiefs are part of a bigger picture? Is the fix in for Romney and is this a nationwide problem?

Santorum for his part has downplayed the problem, but this may be seen as a lack of leadership on his part for what many see as a critical issue, the sanctity of the vote, if in fact more such alleged discrepencies appear.

Those who watched the tallies live were surprised by how long the count took to tabulate, which raised suspicious eyebrows, by vote reversals, and by the closeness of the race itself. Adding to all of that this latest allegation of faulty vote tallies and we begin to see a trend, a trend that some say demonstrates that the GOP chiefs are in the tank for Romney.

Even now, after this latest allegation, the GOP chiefs counter that “other” vote tallies in error had to be corrected in favor of Romney- what a coincidence. It’s almost, some say, as if the party chiefs are manufacturing “corrections” to favor Romney when their errors that favored Romney are uncovered.

Just who won Iowa may never be known, and that neither helps Romney nor endears the GOP to the People, who already see this party as an elitist haven for political insiders who have lost touch with reality, and calls the whole Iowa caucus into question.

The Emerging Threat Of Pan-Islam To Human Freedom

Surging Threat Emerging In Middle East
Pan-Islamic Agenda Versus The People

All throughout the Middle East, average people, and people who don’t particularly like or want to live under Sharia law, face a growing prospect of extreme Pan-Islamic fundamentalism. The Arab Spring which so many, including the Freedomist, have cheered on is becoming a prelude to an Arab Dark Age dominated by bad actors who have no respect for human righs or basic human decency.

Why is this happening? Did the good people of Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, and now Syria riot in the streets for imposing more radical and constricting versions of Sharia law than their tyrants gave them?

Part of the problem is that Pan-Islam, like the USSR in the first few decades of the 20th century, has its share of Western apologists who excuse or gloss over its true nature, and who even blame Western actions for the excesses of the evildoers! People like Ron Paul have no clue what Pan-Islam is all about and what a fundamental and existential threat it poses to human freedom on this planet.

During the uprising in Iran against the Mullas, back in 2009, we invested ourselves and “technical resources” to assist the protestors in getting their message out and even in communicating with one another and we assisted in a concerted cyber-war against the regime. We had the sad experience of seeing some of the people we communicated with become martyrs. One I shall never forget told me via chat, “They’re coming now, goodbye, tell everyone I died for freedom.”

Many Muslims and others in the Middle East want to see freedom in an environment of love and tolerance. While we see apologists for Pan-Islam counseling us to not feel threatened or ooutraged by its practicioners, on the other hand we see some painting all Muslims and Arabs with this borad brush, not even caring about the heart’s cry of so many people for true freedom. I remember urging conservatives to help the Iranian people and being tol things like “they’re Muslim, why should we help them” or “Iranians hate us”.

We should care, as people, for the freedom of all people and whoever is willing to fight for their freedom should be able to count on the support of free people! As the tyrants of Pan-Islam use the discontent of the people to fool some into supporting them and to weasel their way into power, it is the common person, who wants nothing to do with such an agenda, that loses. Without any external support, intellectual, spiritual, or material, average people find themselves dominated by a top-down system that insists it knows best what people should believe and how they should act.

Pan-Islam is making life a living hell for everyone that comes under it sway, only the top people, the sheiks and mullahs at the top, benefit. Perhaps this is the reason why so many Progressives are apologists for Pan-Islam: they secretly admire the power the Pan-Islamists are gaining and wish they had such power themselves.

People who want to be free will always have as much of our support as we can offer, now matter where they are from and no matter what their religion.

Ron Paul’s Conspiracy Theory

Ron Paul told Jay Leno that Rick Santorum hates Muslims, that Michelle Bachman hates Muslims, and that Rick Perry hates Muslims and homosexuals. So, according to this thinking, every effort to fight Islamic extremist violence and terrorism or imperialism, such as Iran’s imperial ambitions, can be chalked up to a conspiracy by his opponents in the primary race based on hatred for Muslims.

North Korea’s Newest Kim

Kim Jong Un Replaces Kim Jong Il- Hawkish 29 Year Old Rules North Korea 

The portly, competitive, and self-absorbed heir of Kim Jong Il, who breathed his last on the 17th or 18th of December, is a son of privilege who went to private schools in Switzerland and who is known in many circles to be rather hawkish with regards to North Korea’s foreign policy. Kim Jong Un does not have the experience to lead a troop of window washers let alone a nation, but his petulant fingers will control North Korea’s nuclear weapons.  » Read more..

Reports- US Forces In Jordan

US Troops Reported In Jordan

We are seeing numerous unconfirmed reports that US forces are inside of Jordan at this hour, but their intentions and their planned length of stay is not known.

While some reports claim that US forces are deployed opposite of the Syrian border with Jordan to forestall Syrian forays into the Hashemite Kingdom, other possibilities are far less ominous.

When the US went to war against Iraq, American forces transited through Jordan from Aqaba and some deployed to help with Iraqi refugees.

This may be what is happening now US forces may be transiting in reverse, from Iraq via Jordan to the port of Aqaba. Additionally, US forces may be helping with Syrian refugees.

If, however, US forces have deployed to Jordan to defend against a possible Syrian incursion, this would violate the spirit and letter of the War Powers act, placing US forces in potential combat zones without even a nod towards Congress. This would prove controversial in the extreme, especially in today’s political climate.

If US forces have deployed from Iraq to Jordan to stave off a potential Syrian move it would most likely be the result of some form of substantiated intelligence. The Syrian regime is still smarting over an incursion of Syrian protestors into Jordan who attacked their embassy in Amman and may also be targeting refugees with operatives who infiltrate the Syrian refugee camps in Jordan. The threat, therefore, may be more covert than overt and merely having US forces “pause” en route to Aqaba could be enough.

Other possibilities, however, include a potential positioning of forces for a new Libya-like intervention should the opposition in Syria materialize into a cohesive force that can take and hold territory. The “no-fly zone” approach has been used with telling effect against Serbia, Saddam Hussein, and Qhadafi. US ground forces would prevent an incursion into Jordan and could even protect Iraq, whose government is alarmed at the possibility of being flooded with Syrian refugees.

The transiting of US troops out of Iraq through Jordan makes perfect sense however it is possible that this could be a good cover for other purposes as well.

Occupiers Target US Ports- Progressive Socialist Sedition Targets THE END OF AMERICA

Socialist Occupiers Wage War On America- Bill Collier- Radical Progressive anti-capitalists are targeting US ports on the west coast with street actions in the hope of provoking a police response and creating unsafe working conditions which the Unions can use as an excuse to stop work in the ports. The Occupiers, who want to implement a Soviet-style one-party state in America, are backed by radicalized front groups, like the local teacher’s union in Oakland, California, in their bid to replace capitalism with state-controlled economic planning.

Ports along the west coast are bracing for a promised onslaught of Progressive socialist sedition which many fear will lead to violence. The Occupiers have engaged in violence in cities throughout America leading to injuries of law enforcement officers and even rapes and murders within their illegal encampments. The socialist sedition, if successful, would plunge the US into a massive depression, which could turn out millions of angry workers who the Progressive socialist Occupiers believe they can then recruit for their world-wide socialist revolution.

The agenda of the Progressive socialist agitators is to impose a “sexual liberation” that distracts people from the loss of their far more important economic, cultural, religious, and political freedoms as they impose a Soviet style one-party state once they have seized power. The Occupiers, unlike the Progressives in the Democratic party, favor immediate revolution while the Democrats favor a slow-motion “revolution by subversion”. As more and more Americans are waking up to the reality of, and getting angry about, this radical anti-freedom agenda the Occupiers are looking for a way to quickly finish their revolution before the Progressives lose even more ground during the next election cycle.

The Occupiers are using the rhetoric of populism, much as many authoritarian regimes in the past and present have (including the Mullahs of Iran, Hugo Chavez, Lenin, Franco of Spain, Mao, and even Hitler’s “National Socialist German Worker’s Party”). Their proposal for solving “injustice” by “corporations” is to totally transfer power away from the corporations to the state, under the guise that they are transferring power to “the People.”

The waging of economic war against these United States is an act of sedition, however, the present American Administration is not likely to label this sedition as such because the Democratic Party is actively seeking to co-opt or channel the radical energy of the Occupiers into support for Democratic candidates during 2012, a fact that this front party for American radical Progressive socialists seems to want to conceal from the majority of voters who reject the socialist ideology which is at the heart of Progressivism.

The emergence of a true Worker’s Freedom Movement which stands up for the rights and interests of workers, as well as their values and beliefs, without compromising our national commitment to a free market and a constitutionally limited form of self-government, is the only viable alternative to Unions that have become purely ideological, in favor of state-control over the economy in the NAME of the workers, and which reflect the corrupt moral depravity of a small minority of God-hating, America-hating secular humanists who seek to impose an atheistic, amoral lifestyle on America (beginning with our children) while forcing any kind of morality that has a religious genesis into the “closet”.

The Occupiers wish to recolonize America with a caesaristic old-world ideology of state-control over the economy that gives people “sexual freedom” at the expense of REAL freedom. Their waging of economic war on America’s ports is not likely to be responded to in a proportional manner, with under-armed and under-staffed police forces being sent against groups of seditionists who want to destroy America itself as part of their ideology for a world-wide socialist revolution.

Some of the Unions, however, may be seeing in this effort a really bad “jump the shark” moment which, far from shutting down ports and winning more powers for the state-controlled economy, will only harden public sentiment against Progressivism, hurt Democrats at the polls, and cause their members to be out of work, and this all for little real gain.

Regardless of the outcome, the Occupiers are determined that NOW is the time to implement a Progressive socialist revolution and destroy America as a union of popular and democratic republics while creating, in its place, a union of soviet socialist “republics” with Washington DC as the national capital and planning center for the state-controlled economy.

State Senate Race In Illinois Garners National Attention- Lennie Jarratt

 

In the 31st State Senate District in Illinois Lennie Jarratt’s bid to be the new State Senator is getting national attention among rank and file conservative activists. Jarratt, a long-time proven fighter for conservative causes and values, has won the admiration and support of many of his peers as a faithful defender of freedom for all against the encroachment of big brother government.

Jarrat’s own story in private and public employment as well as in his own business, providing web design services, is a typical American story these days- an honest, hard-working citizen whose greatest obstacles seem to be the big brother government policies coming from Washington DC and Springfield Illinois. When Jarratt learned that his bank would get more money, thanks to government policies, to foreclose on him after an 11 month period of unemployment than to settle with him, his thoughts turned to the thousands of other citizens in Illinois who were probably facing the same problem, with NO help or support from their elected officials.

Jarrat’s campaign motto is “Supporting Families, Not Government” and this sets the tone for his whole campaign, a campaign that has been endorsed by Illinois Conservatives and is lauded on many national conservative blogs and websites.

Some of Jarratt’s stances include:

Pro Family

The family is the basic unit of our society and it must be preserved. Income tax hikes, property tax hikes and the continual raising of fees are sapping the hard earned money from the families and businesses of Illinois.

Property Taxes

Lake County has the highest property taxes in the Midwest and the 14th highest in the country according to Forbes magazine. Budgets are shrinking, yet taxing bodies never stop increasing these taxes. Families should not be squeezed any more. It is time to restore fiscal sanity to Springfield and reform this state sanctioned local tax.

Income Taxes

Illinois is currently is in the 48th worst financial position*. The 66% tax increase on individuals and 45% increase on the companies that drive our economy caused unemployment to rise to 10%.

Foreclosures

1 in 295 Lake County homes received foreclosure filings in September. In October, the rate climbed to 1 in 271. There are over 2500 active cases in the courts here in Lake County, of which mine is one. I too am living the reality of bad tax and spend policies destroying the jobs families rely on.

Education

Education is the key to the future. All children deserve access to a quality education to unlock their door to excel. We need to empower parents to be able to better direct their child’s education, be it public school, private school, charter school, home school, or other alternatives. The parents know their child best.

Honest Government

Every citizen has the right to expect open and honest government. We should never have to pay a corruption tax as the price of government graft and back room dealings.

Pro 2nd Amendment

It’s simple, the right to bear arms is enshrined in our Constitution and it should not be infringed upon.

Aside from his stance on particular issues, the Freedomist has found him to be capable, credible, honest, a man of his word, and consistently reliable. Often people give lip service to these things, make great promises, do little, and THEN insist on getting credit and glory for things they did not actually do! Lennie has often done more than he says he will while often letting others “get the glory” who did much less, and that without complaint.

But while Jarratt may have earned a good reputation, which explains some of the interest in his candidacy among national activists, there are other reasons for this interest.

Jarrat’s district, the 31st State Senate District, is in the region of northern Chicago and many conservatives believe that a Jarratt win here would prove that running on a conservative platform is in fact a “mainstream” value, contrary to the Karl Roves of the GOP who insist that one has to be center-left (what they call “moderate” or even “independent”) to win elections.

These two schools of thought, one that says that candidates can run on conservative values and win voters over and the other that assumes the media’s view of “mainstream” is the right view that candidates need to conform to, are looking at the 31st State Senate District as a bell-weather for the validity of their approach.

While polls have not been conducted in the district, Jarrat’s involvement in helping dozens of local conservative candidates win elections over the past 4 years seems to indicate that creating a solid “ground game” will not be a problem for his campaign, even if his financial war chest is not on par with the establishment candidates GOP progressives will run against him.

That being said, more and more conservative activists are going to http://www.lenniejarratt.com/donate/ to donate “$20.11” to help Jarrat’s campaign round out 2011 with a god-sized financial war chest.

What Motivates Mitt Romney?

By Bill Collier- Mitt Romney desperately wants to be President but WHY?

Often people who want to be President are motivated in one of four ways- they are on a power-mad ego trip, they are inspired by a cause or ideology, they have a hidden agenda, or they are being propped up as a front-person for hidden forces.

When considering a candidate one always looks for one of, or a combination of, these four motives. With our current President, whose behavior comes across to some as rather Quisling and Ahab-like, betraying America’s core values and discarding morality and ethics, it appears that he may be a front-man for hidden forces and he has a hidden agenda but that he is also on a power-mad ego trip.

President Obama’s conceited tendency to couch everything he does as “good for America” while attacking all who disagree as “putting politics ahead of the country” may in fact be a classic Freudian slip. The reality is that President Obama is doing what he thinks is best for his ideology, for his allies, and for his globalist/progressive agenda, even if that is, objectively speaking, bad for America’s economy, culture, or security.

So what is Romney’s core motivation?

Prior to 2007 he was worse than a “RINO”, he was an outright Progressive! He implemented socialized medicine in his state, he acquiesced on gay marriage, he was staunchly pro-abortion, and was generally in tune with all of Progressivism’s tenets. His Mormon faith might have informed him for all those years that he was a member of one church that his values were skewed, but when it came to politics Romney checked his faith at the door.

To this day, Romney does not deny that global warming is man-made, a “fact” that most freedom-minded people are highly suspicious of because this claim usually precedes a call for radical government control over people’s lives.

Now Romney is claiming to have had a change of heart, but since 2007 Romney has scrupulously avoided wading into any controversy and when fellow-conservatives have been attacked he has stayed on the sidelines. When people like Bachman and Palin were going after egregious offenses by the progressives in power all these past 4 years since Romney’s “conversion”, the “former” Progressive said and did nothing.

All through the past four years Romney has not taken any stands for any conservative cause or issue, unless it would help his campaign, and he has not helped any candidate, as his rivals have all done. If Romney hasn’t made any gaffs or foolish choices in the past four years it is because he has never taken any leadership role for any candidate, cause, or issue not directly related to his own campaign.

While his opponents were publicly exclaiming against progressive policies like cap and trade, stimulus bailouts, gay marriage, and more, Romney was quietly but earnestly raising money with insider fact-cats and staying mute!

Those who question Romney’s “conversion” can rightfully ask “what price has Romney ever been willing to pay for a principled stand?” His career has always been characterized as one big “conflict avoidance” journey. Did he take a principled stand in business, as governor, or as a candidate that actually cost him something personal?

One can hardly see a man whose political training occurred in an extremely progressive-dominated state, where one’s choices were moderate progressivism versus radical progressivism, to NOT fall back on those habits if he is ever in power again.

Romney’s behavior is very Progressive. He won’t debate if Donald Trump moderates, but he’s happy to have the journolist media moderate a debate. He mischaracterize his opponent’s stances and vilifies them through proxies, with media complicity, but he won’t admit when he is caught red-handed changing his tune on his socialized medicine scheme’s similarity with ObamaCare.

Romney’s attacks on Gingrich may in fact be backfiring, if one reads conservative blogs right:

Romney brings out big guns, shoots self in foot (Romney imploding) 
Legal Insurrection ^ | 12/8/2011 | William Jacobson 

Posted on Thu Dec 08 2011 14:06:28 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time) by Lakeshark

Romney is losing it. His coordinated assault on Newt does not make the case for Romney.

And it’s embarrassing. Romney brought out former Congressman and former Senator Jim Talent to bash Newt’s leadership as Speaker. Talent forgets that the internet has a long memory, and that Talent supported Newt for Speaker of the House even after the issues Talent now complains about were raised:

Old Quote from Talent: Allegiance comes from Rep. Jim Talent, R-Mo., who says, “I intend to support the speaker”

 

As I mentioned last night, bringing John Sununu to the rescue just reminds us of the appointment of David Souter and the breaking of George H.W. Bush’s “no new taxes” pledge, in both of which Sununu played an instrumental role as Chief of Staff.

—————————

It would seem that Romney, while he is no Obama, is a moderate progressive who has a hidden agenda that he conceals behind his new-found conservative rhetoric. It would also seem that for Romney the real motive is power while he is being propped up financially by the insider Republican progressives.

What is also clear is that when it comes to the issues and values of GOP primary voters Romney has not ever been willing to pay any price to stand up for them.

Silent Coup In Pakistan- Islamists Seize Power In Pakistan

Pakistan’s President, Asif Ali Zardari, may have already been “deposed” in a silent coup by Islamist insiders with the backing of the ISI, Pakistan’s intelligence service which is notoriously pro-Islamist in its agenda. While Zardari is off to Dubai for what could be anything from a routine check-up to a life-threatening heart condition, it is becoming obvious in many circles that the real power in Islamabad is in the hands of a coterie of ultra-Islamist insiders.

The “silent coup” is being orchestrated behind the scenes in a series of seemingly innocuous moves, right under the nose of US intelligence assets which are hamstrung by directives from the White House which are focusing more on placating Pakistani sensibilities than spying on their inner workings and shifting motives.

Fears of an Islamist coup to take over Pakistan’s nuclear weapons, which are resulting in what some see as an over-the-top policy of appeasement in the face of countless Pakistani provocations, may have already been realized in what may now be a bigger intelligence failure than the failure to detect the coming of the 911 attacks by Islamist forces. The whole effort to prevent a coup by a policy of overlooking countless Pakistani offenses may already have met with failure and, even now, Islamist forces may have access to nuclear weapons.

Regardless of the status of the Pakistani President, or the real reasons for his ailment and his departure to Dubai, the Islamist forces that run the ISI now appear to be on the ascent in all branches of the Pakistani government, from the Presidential palace to the military.

 

 

Blssburg PA Freedomist To Be Launched

Kross Publishing, which owns The Freedomist, announced today the launching of The Blossburg PA Freedomist, begining in January of 2012.

Blossburg is a small town (borough) located in southern Tioga County Pennsylvania which is in the Twin Teirs region that includes counties in the southern tier of New York State and the northern tier of Pennsylvania.

The local Freedomist will focus on being a watchdog, an advocate, and a resource for freedom-focused news, local events, and local information that is useful to local readers.

The digital newspaper will begin online however plans for a print component are in the works.

The basic business model is to provide local businesses with a low-cost, highly effective marketing resource that will effectively encourage local readers to “buy local first” as part of a freedom building initiative for the whole community.

Local businesses and organizations will have access to a whole range of services, including a free advertising cooperative, a $65 per month local business directory, display ads online and in print, video ads, SEO marketing, content marketing, and more.

This local digital-to-print local “newspaper’ is expected to appeal to a wide range of local readers who need local news and/or who want news from  pro-freedom perspective. With a local population of over 12,000 in the greater Blossburg PA region, which includes Arnot, Liberty, and Morris Run as well as neighboring townships, it is expected that daily readers will exceed 3,000-4,000 local readers.

Kross Publishing has been involved in local newspaper operations in multiple locations around the United States, from New Mexico and Texas to Pennsylvania, and will be utilizing its expertise and a proven formula for success in this local effrt.

The Blossburg Freedomist will be the first in a series of local versions of the Freedomist which will be licensed, conditional franchises operated by LOCAL editors who will be trained in the Freedomist news model.

Schoolchildren Frozen To Save The Planet?

Global Warming Radical Freezes Schoolchildren
Bill Collier

Meet Bob Benzie of Ansford, England’s secondary school. He’s the “headmaster” or principal, and he has a plan to save the planet, it’s a plan that is leaving everyone out in the cold, or IN in the cold.
Benzie took it upon himself to turn off his school’s heating system on what turned out to be the coldest day of the year so far, which was near freezing at 34°F. This left everyone, staff and student included, to fend for themselves with as many layers of clothing as they could manage to put on.
Students and teachers complained that work was impeded because the only way to stay warm was to wear gloves, through which it was impossible to write or type on a keyboard.
While the global warming radical deemed the event a “success” and claimed that parents and students had been warned about the event and that the only complaint came from a staff member who, “in the end got on with it”, in other words, according to Benzie, everyone was fine.
But parents aren’t fine. Many children came home still shivering and some near hyperthermia. Long-term exposure to cold for more than 4 hours is especially unhealthy for children increasing the risk of sickness, especially colds and flu, and of hypothermia.
In the US, turning off the heat in a school would run afoul of the law on two counts- reckless endangerment of children and unsafe working conditions. It is common in the US for schools to close when their heating system is not working properly.
HVAC experts recommend that large buildings with older heating systems maintain a steady temperature rather than turning off the heat, even when nobody is in the building, because it takes more energy, and is harder on the heating system, to restore a cold building’s temperature than to maintain a decent temperature throughout the whole day, even during times when nobody is in the building. What Benzie has done may in fact result in more fuel being consumed while putting much more war and tear on the school’s heating systems.
Far from reducing the school’s carbon footprint, Benzie may have actually frozen a school full of 640 children while INCREASING the school’s “carbon footprint.”
Benzie’s plan was meant to help “save the planet” from the bogeyman of “man-made global warming”, but with that thesis in question and, regardless of that thesis, with the known very real health risks to children for long-term exposure to the cold, many whether Benzie is qualified to be the headmaster of ANY school of any type.
Benzie passed the blame for the unhealthy idea on to a small group of students from the eco-class who came up with the plan.
To make matters worse, the global warming radical promises to hold more such cold-days (”eco-days”) during the next semester in order, he says, to “reduce our carbon footprint.”

The War On Iranian Nukes Gains Momentum

Covert War Against Iran Catches Media’s Eyes- Iran’s Options For Response Are Dwindling
William R. Collier Jr.

The media are finally covering something that Freedomist has covered for two years, the ongoing covert war against Iran. This war has consisted of cyber attacks, assassinations, and mysterious “blasts” as well as covert support for anti-regime forces.

Before we dive in with our analysis, we need to report on the US drone that Iran may have gained possession of and which it claims it shot down. We believe the Iranians, if they have possession of an RQ-170 US drone, have been given a drone that the Taliban captured in Afghanistan. We do not believe the US is actively engaged in Iran.

The famous “Stuxnet” attack was a cyber attack we assessed originated in Israel back on 2009, which caused industrial accidents at uranium enrichment facilities. During 2009 Freedomist was involved in our own “cyber engagement” with the Iranian government in support of the freedom advocates during the 2009 uprisings which President Obama utterly failed to support.

Assassinations against key Iranian scientists and even a few generals in their Revolutionary Guards appear to be conducted by anti-regime forces with the support of Israel and possibly Western powers. These assassinations have deteriorated Iran’s brain trust and they have frightened outside experts who might otherwise have made themselves available to the Iranians.

Of note, many Russian advisers are reported to have fled the country not only for fear of assassination but also because of the growing paranoia of the Iranians who suspect everyone of being a spy. Iranian fear of spies, infiltrators, and saboteurs has slowed their progress and made practical sharing of ideas and normal communication more and more difficult.

The “mysterious blasts” being reported at key Iranian facilities, especially the uranium enrichment and processing sites, have been ongoing for 2 years, with reporting by Freedomist always pointing to outside sources or anti-regime forces with primarily Israeli assistance. These blasts have been more extensive than the media have even reported and can be counted in the dozens over the past two years.

Iran’s claim to have captured a US R-170 drone, an advanced stealth design, which was most likely captured by the Taliban and shipped to Iran, may be an effort to expose the covert war, implicate the US, and justify some form of retaliation, including acts of terrorism.

Iran’s options, however, may be limited.

While the Islamists in Egypt appear to be doing well at the ballot box, the military may have little stomach for turning Egypt into an Islamist state. The possibility of Egypt discarding the Cam David accords could also open up the possibility of an Israeli incursion into the Sinai peninsula which Israel surrendered to Egypt in return for a peace treaty, a possibility that is more real than most analysts predict.

Aside from Egypt, which may become Islamist, events in Lebanon and Syria do not favor Iran.

In Lebanon the nations seems to have gown sick of both Syria and Hezbollah and increasing demands to end the tolerance for an armed Hezbollah are being backed up with threats by Sunni, Druze, and Christian Phalange groups re-arming for battle against the Islamists. Some think that these groups are already arming with Israel once again helping the Christians and the Druze.

In Syria, it appears that US and Israeli resources are flowing to opposition forces who are arming against the regime. Some attacks have already occurred and various ethnic groups also appear to be preparing for a civil war. This has been a huge distraction for the Assad regime, Iran’s ally, and has also lessened Syrian material for Hezbollah.

The fact that a serious Hezbollah attack on Israel has not occurred may in fact reveal that such an attack is untenable. It would have to happen under the noses of an armed UN mission and it might cause Lebanese forces, both official and unofficial, to turn on Hezbollah. This does not mean that Hezbollah can’t or won’t attack, but it does mean that such an attack might be resisted from within Lebanon itself.

Iran’s options, as the Freedomist has already noted, are dwindling as the pro-Islamic forces face increasing popular resistance. Their excesses are outraging many and even in places where they might enjoy a majority support, a significant minority who feel an existential threat may be compelled to offer armed resistance. Even the native Egyptians, the Copts, may end over 1400 years of accommodation with the Arab occupiers and go over to armed resistance, even if this is an unlikely possibility.

The pendulum is swinging against Iran and unless Iran takes radical and decisive action soon, it may be too late.

The covert war against Iran’s mullahs will continue, no doubt expanding to regime assets, possibly command and control and key personalities, and actions against Iran’s allies, Hezbollah and Syria, will continue to degrade Iran’s ability to respond.

The covert war is not likely to let up, unless Iran takes overt action that escalates matters to an open shooting war, which is increasingly possible as Iran’s ability to indirectly attack its chief enemy, Israel, decreases.

The Russian Bear Emerges From Its Slumber

Vladimir’s Third Reich Looms- West Unprepared

Vladimir Putin’s “United Russia” Party is soon going to secure a majority in the Russian Duma making him the new prime minister and virtual emperor over a reborn Russian reich, the third iteration, that might just rival the German version in terms of its evil potential and intent.

The third Russian reich, or empire, is going to be crafted, says Putin, on a policy of aggressive anti-Americanism, hegemony over central Asia, and leveraging Russian energy supplies to Europe to stifle and then roll back NATO expansion. The former Soviet satellites and conquered states within the old USSR had better stand up and take notice.

Obama’s much trumpeted “Salt 2″ treaty with Russia is set to be the first casualty, Putin wants more US concessions regarding missile defense, despite adding more dangerous missiles to Kalliningrad (“Konigsburg” the capital of occupied East Prussia), or he will renounce the treaty. Some security experts would be glad to see the US unshackled from the loathsome, one-sided treaty.

Russia itself is swimming in money, thanks to a US anti-energy-at-home policy which not only makes the US dependent on foreign oil and drives up the overall price, but with increased demand on energy from Russia by Europe puts untold BILLIONS in Euors and Dollars in the Kremlin’s coffers and gives the Russians a tremendous influence.

Russian has used that influence, often in league with China, to bolster the world’s bad actors whenever they resist the US or the West, such as Syria, Iran, and North Korea. Even as war looms in the Middle East, Russia and China are talking about an attack on the Iranian regime’s nuclear weapons program as an “act of war” which THEY might respond to.

The Russian lust for power, not unlike the German lust for power, remains unquenched and is deeply imbedded in the psyche of the People. Unlike the Germans, who seem to be conquering Europe with the Euro as their weapon, Russia is looking to more martial means. On that score, Putin has announced a dramatic increased in defense spending.

Over the past 3 years or so, Russia has been modernizing key military units, investing in equipment and training at a level per unit that far exceeds Soviet era standards, giving Russia a solid, modern, and well trained core of professionals around which an expanded force can be built.

This will all, it would seem, take time, depending on how fast Putin moves, how long the US lets the world energy market spin out of control as energy in the US remains untapped, and depending on how long the US ignores or even caves in to Russian saber rattling.

Obama Hoisted On His Own Petard

Will Occupiers Turn On Their Master?
Progressives’ Manufactured “Revolutions” Backfires

When shadowy bigwigs want to take down a popular resistance movement, like the Tea Party, they usually sponsor their own mob to fling at the opposition. The problem with flinging mobs at your enemy is that mobs can see their former sponsors as their enemy and turn on them.

On the northwest corner of 53rd Street and 7th Avenue, in view of the Sheraton hotel in New York City, a groups of 100 or so ultra progressive extremists who want a socialist worker’s paradise NOW started an “action” that President Obama may have been surprised by.

As the progressive President arrived at around 9 PM the uber-radical vanguard his team thought might reinvigorate his base like the Tea Party did for the other side turned its guns on him. Signs proclaimed:

Obama Is A Corporate Puppet
Sold Out
War Crimes Need Persecuting, No Matter Who Does Them

One of the organizers lamented that Obama was going to get money from “the richest of the rich.”

Obama’s visit to New York has been marked by controversies and irony. He allegedly came to New York for the lighting of the Christmas Tree in Rockefeller Plaza, but he is snarling traffic on  an epic scale to attend numerous fundraisers for extremely wealthy donors. Rudi Guilliani criticized Obama’s segway from nice public event to money-grubbing politicking.

The irony of this was not lost on the Occupiers- little people’s lives were severely inconvenienced so that Obama could get big bucks from the very same wealthy people both he and the Occupiers were vilifying.

It’s not certain that the whole movement, largely “sponsored” by legacy, but often covert, radical progressive organizations will turn completely on its master and become a source of trouble from Obama’s left flank, but the first signs of potentially losing control of the mob they sought to fling against the Tea Party may have already emerged.

Britain’s Public Workers Strike Despite Poor Economy

While most Britons struggle under an economy that is seeing private sector jobs and waged shrink, the 2 million public workers are striking.

Everything from courts, schools, hospitals, and most government offices are facing closure or reduced services as the progressive unions are scheduling over 1,000 demonstrations to demand that, while the rest of Britain tightens its belt the elite class of public workers continue to enjoy their high wages, taxpayer funded generous pensions, and easy working conditions.

Hardest hit will be people seeking healthcare or those suffering medical emergencies. All operations other than life-saving operations are cancelled and ambulances are only available for “life-threatening” emergencies. The problem of course is that nobody can tell if a cancelled operation for a non-life threatening illness won’t lead to a life-threatening or a seemingly non-life threatening emergency really won’t devolve quickly into a fatality.

Most of Britain’s schools will also be closed and all save a few notorious court cases will be suspended.

The public workers want to continue high wages, liberal working conditions, and free pension benefits at public expense despite the fact that meeting their demands might bankrupt the nation.

The strike is expected to do serious harm to Britain’s fragile economy, but the public workers have made themselves the highest priority instead of the nation they allegedly serve.

Is The West, Israel ALREADY At War With Iran?

A series of mysterious explosions at key Iranian sites linked to their covert nuclear weapons program has may wondering if Israel and/or the West are already attacking the Iranian war machine in dribs and drabs.

If indeed they are it’s a fact the Islamic state does not want to acknowledge, with efforts by local citizens in Isfahan, one of the key sites, to find out the source of two large explosions in two weeks meeting a stonewall of official denial.

Satelite images of the targeted sites reveal large-scale destruction, beyond a mere “accidental misfire”, as some have posited. What could be intertpreted as an impact crater in the center of one site with nearby buildings being levelled. The hole thus gouged into the earth could also indicate a “bunker busting” munition or a bomb placed deep underground.

Meanwhile Iran is moving its own chess peices on the board, orchestrating a storming of the British Embassy (which failed to acheive the goal of taking hostages thanks to quick reactions by the staff) and now orchestrating a not-so-subtle probing attack on Israel from Lebanon.

The attack on Israel consisted of a few rockets being launched into Galilee, which did no damage. This attack may have been a precursor attack to something bigger which was designed to allow the shooters to get their range.

Iran, meanwhile, is facing a growing likelihood of losing its chief ally, Syria, as what amounts to a civil war seems to be developing in the country. The Arab league has condemned and cut off the Assad regime and Turkey has joined in imposing sanctions. Russia and China, however, remain loyal to Syria and Iran as a counter to the United States, whom they view as their enemy.

Incidents in what may be a slow-motion attack on Iran include over 6 bomb blasts, targeted killings of key Iranian scientists, and a massive and ongoing cyber attack, all designed to slow, contain, and then destroy the Iranian nuclear weapons program without provoking an all out war.

Occupiers Ousted- Wearing Thin On Sympathetic Mayors

They want to like them, these progressive mayors, but as the general public gets to see, and smell, these “Occupiers, mayors who want to keep their job can’t stomach the progressive tools any longer.

Whil Richmond VA has the gall to audit the Tea Party for pointing out that progressive mayor’s double standard (the mayor charged Occupiers nothing but made the Tea Party pay to use public space), overnight the mayors of Philadelphia and Los Angeles sent swarms of cops in to evict their Occupiers.

In both cases police came in after midnight and declared that the Occupiers had 10 minutes to get out. Scuffles and Occupier violence against police ensued, and operations seem to have been wrapping up as of this writing.

The Occupy movement are dominated by progressive fringe groups, among whom are the Communist Party, and are backed by the Unions as well as President Obama. They seek a Marxist wealth redistribution scheme and an end to America as we know it, all in the name of so-called “social justice.”

In LA, over 250 tents occupied public space in front of City Hall, denying use of that space to all save the Marxist activists, while the camp in Philadelphia was smaller. In both cases, the city tried to cooperate with the Occupiers, mainly because the mayors are both closet Marxists themselves, but the public outcry against their behavior was becoming too much, and now the Ocupier’s allies have turned on them.

Germany Conquers The EU As Euro Crisis Deepens

What the German war machine could not acheive in two world wars, hegemony over western Europe and beyond, is now seemingly falling into Germany’s lap through its dominance of the Euro.

The German economy is the strongest and the largest in Europe, it is the fiscal heart of the Eurozone that is pumping much needed funds into the increasingly prostrate limbs of the European Union. Now, Berlin is poised to become the hegemony over the Euro by virtue of the simple fact that without Germany to prop it up the entire facade will come crashing down leading to an economic catastrophe of biblical proportions.

When Berlin actualizes a policy of fiscal hegemony over the rest of Europe, no nation within that Union will be able to survive economically without bowing to the diktat from the old Prussian capital. In fact, nationhood itself will be a quaint myth that has no real expression or meaning in the world of realpolitik, a world whose language will be Deutsche.

The final act of independence may have come with news that now, in addition to the Greeks, Italians, Spanish, and Portuguese, the French economy is threatening the fiscal solvency of their government. Without fiscal solvency, these governments are easy prey to the holder of the purse, which now seems to be the only nation that CAN keep the shared currency afloat, the Germans.

The end result of all of this, barring a decisive renunciation of the Euro by member nations, cannot be avoided or denied- the German colossus will sit astride western Europe, perhaps with the French playing the role of junior partner, and from financial “coordination” will flow military coordination with the armed forces of member nations acting more or less as a foreign legion for the German military and its French auxiliaries.

What would the implications for America be?

A German-European empire would be, in its own right, a superpower and would necesarily pursue its own interests. The era of NATO being an American-led coalition would end, in fact NATO could disappear and the new German-European Empire could become as hostile to US interests as the old USSR was.

This may be too far off to discuss at this time, but such shifts of power often occure suddenly and seemingly out of nowhere, and that can happen any time after the condition is right. All that is needed is an event that sparks a change in thinking away from the mindset of the old conditions (e.g. American hegemony and European disunion) and towards a mindset more suited to the new conditions (American retrenchment and German-led European unity).

What is becoming clear is that Germany is the central bank of the Eurozone, which gives Germany, and only Germany, the final say as to what happens in the EU. Currently, the Germans can dictate policy, including internal policy, to all of the EU states that are in crisis, and soon even those that are not in crisis.

The only way to avert this may be the German People themselves, who seem to be rejecting such a role for their government. Some 52 percent reject Germany’s role as the Euros savior, but the Government is not really listening to them, so far. With national elections two years out and the Euro’s crisis growing daily, the popular consensus of the German People may have little chance of influencing events.

Intolerable Acts- Barney Frank, EPA, Israel-Iran, Pakistan, Egypt, and More

Intolerable Acts November 28 2011

By, By, Barney Frank!

The dean of financial corruption masquerading as reform, Barney Frank, is not going to run for re-election. The 31 year politico and author of Dodd-Frank, a financial “reform” bill that is causing heartache across the nation’s financial sector, has not announced why he is leaving his plush DC digs nor what he will do with his time.

California- Corrupting Of Youth Now An Educational Mandate

Begining in 2012, kids in California’s failing public schools will be forced to show “admiration” for the homosexual lifestyle, banishing any talk that this gross perversion against God, men, and nature is “sinful”, and promoting “exploration” of “sexual identity” by grade-school children against parental wishes. Under the guise of preventing bullying, homosexuals will be bullying children into becoming prey for sexual predators in their classrooms.

Climate Change Gurus Get Nervous

The old joke about how politicians would tax air if they could is no longer funny. As the climate-change gurus get more nervous about being exposed, their minions in Obama’s EPA are still cramming down outrageous “regulations” based on the notion that carbon dioxide is “toxic”. But all is not well for these gurus as Canada, showing their quiet mistrust of the whole climate-change agenda and its doctored “science”, is reportedly going to back out of the so-called “Kyoto Agreement” which many see as imposing jobs-killing regulations without any appreciable reward and for spurious reasons at that.

Pakistan’s Islamists Orchestrate A Rupture With The US

The recent NATO strike on a Pakistani army outpost was the result of that unit firing on Afghan soldiers on the other side of the border. The Afghan soldiers requested and received air support and in the return fire over 25 Pakistani troops were killed. The entire incident was orchestrated by the Islamist elements in the ISI to deliberately provoke a response that would lead to casualties on the Pakistani side which would then enflame the populace. Those who predict that nothing of substance will change with Pakistan may not be considering that this entire fiasco is being manufactured by the Pakistani government.

Israel Drags Its Feet On Iran

Will Israel deal with Iran’s burgeoning nuclear weapons program by shutting it down or is a nuclear Iran an inevitability? So far, the Israeli left are siding with Israel’s enemies, acting like collaborators in the demise of the Jewish People, while the Netanyahu government toys with every other option but the military one, so far caving to US pressure, led by America’s Pan-Islamic sympathetic president, and refusing to move beyond rhetoric. The clock is ticking and it in days, not months, it may be too late.

Democracy Or Justice?

Should people be allowed to launch Jihad against minorities or their neighbors in the name of democracy? That’s what is happening in Egypt as the Muslim Brotherhood calls for killing all the Jews and taking away the rights of non-Muslims in Egypt. What is worse is that, while the Muslim Brotherhood may not be a majority after today’s vote, they will form the largest political block and likely head a coalition government. So, US M1 tanks, sold by the hundreds to Egypt, may in fact one day be turned against Israel.

Robert Schuller- Positively Wrong?

Millions of Christians have embraced Robert Schuller’s “positve thinking” theology. Schuller described how his poisitve thinking allwed him to “visualize” the Crystal Cathedral which was erected in 1980.

But the proof of the validity of an idea has to be rooted both in Scripture and in the fruits of that doctrine. For positive thinking fans, the demise of the Crystal Cathedral a bare 31 years after it was erected may be the biggest disappointment.

The entire enterprise is mired in lawsuits and conflict as the Schuller’s threaten to sue the church over intellectual property rights and overcome a family fued between father and son.

Positive thinking was not enough to visualize a way to overcome falling revenues in the wake of a massive recession as revenue dropped and the church failed to attract a younger membership, while some older members were put off by the younger Schuller’s ascent to the pulpit.

If positive thinking was all it took, some argue, then Schuller would have been able to navigate through the current eonomic downturn.

Donations for the church have gone down from over $6.7 million to $4 million and are expected to reach only $3.5 million this year.

The Crystal Cathedral is being sold off in a bidding war between a Catholic Diocese and a local university. The Diocese is offering more money, nearly $58 million, with a right to buy  back the property, while the university is ofering $55.5 million and will lease some building to the ministry for $1 per month without a right to buy back the building. The ministry board wants to selll to the university to keep the building in Protestnt hands, while the Schullers favor the Diocese beause it is offering more money.

Occupy DC Participant Shoots At White House

An Occupy DC protestor, 21-year-old Oscar Ramiro Ortega of Idaho, is being sought by DC Police after a shooting at 16th Street and Constitution Avenue Bullets, which are believed to have come from this shooting, were found lodged in the exterior of the White House. One bullet was found in bullet-proof glass and one in the outside wall of the White House.
Police say that Ramiro has a “fixation” with the White and poses a potential threat after the man’s car was discovered. While they did not describe all the contents of the car, beyond a rifle and ammunition, they must have found enough paraphelia to indicate the shooter’s state of mind.
The media are depicting the Occupy DC protestor as “mentaly ill”, although beyond the fact that he allegedly shot at the White House, was found in a local abandoned house, and was seen for days participating in the Occupy DC protest, not much is known of him.
Media seeking to distance the violent man from the Occupy DC protest have stated that “Ortega may have spent time blending in with Occupy D.C. Protester.”

This story is as much about how an Occupy DC Protestor may have been firing potshots at the White House as it is about th ongoing media cover-up of the true nature of these protestors, which have been heavily laced with deranged characters, the likes of which would hve received short shrift in the Tea Party.

Is Gloria Allred’s Lynch Mob Partner, Sharon Bialek, A Marketing Executive?- Sharon Bialek

Sharon Bialek, claiming to be a tea party supporter, made a lot of wild accusations against Herman Cain.

Her allegations have no basis of external proof, it is stricly a "she-said/he-said" deal, and her lawyer is the infamous Gloria Alred, who famously trumpeted the accusers of the Duke Lacrosse team, ruinbing their seaon, only to see her client exposed as an outright liar.

The whole thing smells of political fishiness, and now we may have discovered that Sharon Bialek is an acccount executive for a liberal leaning ad agency, see here: http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/153340-Fates_Fortunes.php

See bottom of page-

At Katz Marketing Dimensions: Judy Carlough, sales manager, Greater Boston Radio, Boston, named VP/manager, Atlanta; Jeanne Schad, account supervisor, Richards Group, Dallas, named account manager, Dallas; Sharon Bialek, NTR director, WGN Radio, Chicago, named account manager, Chicago.

Why would THIS matter?

If Bialek is a marketing executive whose firm worked on "branding" and "media communications". then this would make sense. No doubt Cain's accuser, if she IS a marketing executive, knows that she will be the darling of the liberal elite social circles and hereafter never lack for a good place of employment.

Is what she is saying TRUE?

So far the accuser has claimed that she is a registered republican and tea party supporter.

In Illinois there are no "registered" this or that, unlike in Pennsylvania where you delcare a party, in Illinois, you don't. So then nobody could ossibly substantiate this claim.

Hat tip to Steve Eggleston for showing us this: http://norunnyeggs.com/  

We are hearing from LOCAL Tea Party groups, via http:/www.publiusforum.com that so far NO local tea party member has ever heard of this woman.

This is America, we are supposed to say "inocent until proven guilty", a principle Alred urged be abandoned during the Duke Lacrosse debace and that she is trying to set aside now.

Intolerable Acts For November 5, 2011

Ventura Says Adios to US
‘I will never stand for national anthem again. I will turn my back and I will raise fist’, Jesse Ventura. The atheist and “truther” said this after a Federal Judge tossed out his lawsuit against airport security measures. Ventura is moving to Mexico where, as a foreigner, he will not be allowed to own land or even comment at ALL on Mexican politics.

WHITE HOUSE REJECTS SOLYNDRA SUBPOENA..
Obama and his staff at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue might prefer to go outside the Constitution by using regulatory powers and executive order to effectively legislate from the Oval Office, but when it suits them they will use the Constitution. Now they want to hide from scrutiny the internal goings-on about the botched Solyndra deal citing “separation of powers” and “executive privilege.”

GIULIANI: Obama ‘owns Wall Street movement’.. ‘Will take down his presidency’…
Rudi isn’t pulling any punches and he predicts that as the “Occupiers” show us more and more of their proverbial backsides Obama and company will regret embracing them. We have called for Resisting the Occupiers, predicting that only a solid, peaceful counter protest by the Tea Party will ensure that this doesn’t get out of control. To date our appeals to Tea Party leaders and groups have been ignored or rejected and the Occupiers are waxing worse and worse.
It might be good politics to let the other side show its proverbial backside in living color, but it’s not necessarily good for the country.

BREAKING- Andy Rooney Is No Longer An Atheist
The progressive funny man, pundit, and God-hater who was given an open mic by CBS for many decades has finally discovered something that isn’t too funny- that, yes Virginia, there is a God. We hope sincerely that he made his peace with God before he discovered this truth.

Gen X’er Thinks His Generation Sucks?
Dean Malik is a nice enough guy, but when he rips into my generation, well, it’s time for a food fight!
Malik (who writes here http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/11/a_gen-x_perspective_on_our_nations_decline.html) seems to think that Gen X’ers don’t appreciate hard work and didn’t have any great accomplishments.
It was Gen X’ers who manned the US military during its peak under Reagan and who directly contributed to the ending of the Cold War.
I served in the Navy at the tip of the spear hunting (finding) Soviet subs and helping to keep them bottled up in the North Sea.
As for history, Gen X’ers are among the leaders of the Tea Party and I was there, when the Tea Party was #dontgo and #tcot and many of us all threw in our support and effort to help give birth to the greatest political movement in modern history. Sarah Palin, one of the strongest pro-life and pro-America voices around, is a Gen X’er!
Todd Beamer and many of the passengers that sacrificed their lives in Shanksville PA were Gen X’ers!

Breaking- US Senate Race In Pennsylvania Begins In Earnest

The US Senate Race in Pennsylvania is under way and three top names seem to be in the mix.

On the GOP side it looks like the heavy hitters will be the guerilla campaign of John Vernon versus what may be a wall funded traditional campaign by Sam Rohrer. Both men have Tea Party street cred with Vernon coming in as a social conservative free marketer and Rohrer, the AFP state director for PA, being a center-right favorite.

On the other side is Bob Casey who, at present, doesn’t have a serious primary opponent. As Casey is presented as pro-life, and many in PA vote very much on the basis of this issue, a strong pro-life advocate from the GOP seems to be prescribed.

Will John Vernon or Sam Rohrer be the proper counter to Bob Casey in the US Senate race in PA?

We do know both men and find both to be likeable, but if anyone thinks Vernon cannot compete with Rohrer, who ran for governor in 2010 losing in the primary, we know that Vernon’s bag of tricks might be exactly the kinds of moves that fit this current political climate. Without tipping our hat too much on embargoed information, it appears to us that Vernon is going to mount an unexpected campaign from unexpected quarters that could give him at least a 50/50 shot or better at winning the nod next year.

Either Rohrer or Vernon would be a better and more solid pick than the waffling Casey, but for staunch pro-lifers, like ourselves, the real question is which of these candidates is most likely to pro-actively carry the banner of life into the US Senate?

All three men claim to be pro-life, although Casey’s votes have caused many to question his sincerity on this issue.

Rohrer, however, has run afoul of himself in a recent AFP commendation on Tom Smith, a recent Democrat who is now running in the GOP primary and who is unlikely to garner much conservative support. The State chapter of Americans For Prosperity, an organization the Freedomist has always admired, praised Smith for signing a pledge against carbon taxes, url here: http://www.politicspa.com/potential-senate-rival-rohrer-commends-smith/29125/

The problem? While Rohrer praised Smith, a Democrat running as a GOP candidate, he left our John Vernon, who signed the same pledge. Perhaps this is because Vernon is his strongest rival for the GOP nod amongst conservatives.

One commenter noted:

Judy Brown says:
November 2, 2011 at 3:19 pm

Too bad Sam Rohrer doesn’t know that John Vernon already signed the American for Tax Reform pledge and the Contract from America.

Sam doesn’t mention that Smith was a democrat until about 6 weeks ago and donated to Jason Altmire and hasn’t donated to Republican challenger Keith Rothfus. And, while a democrat donated to Republicans.

Now how can Sam run against Smith?

Some have taken this as a sign that Rohrer does not intend to run, but others see this as acknowledging that Vernon is in fact his real chief rival and that giving some praise to the Democrat running as a Republican will make Rohrer look magnanimous without really helping someone who could never seriously challenge him, as Vernon can.

All of this is giving Vernon some real credibility as the insurgent candidate to beat, making for an interesting primary in which PA Voters will have a choice between two conservatives, one with more political experience (although Rohrer is not seen as a political insider) and one with an amazing ability to create a serious political challenge with almost no visible previous support (although that is changing as Vernon leverages his oratory, networking, and plain old-likeability with his creative and highly effective use of funds).

Israel Prepares For War

Willia R Collier Jr.- On All Fronts Israel Faces Pan-Islamic Aggression- Even as the Israeli left gears up to demand hand-outs while opposing a strong defense against the Pan-Islamic aggression being aimed at Israel, the Prime Minister wants to prepare for a war for Israel's survival.

The main threat is coming from Iran, both in the form of its nuclear ambitions and its constant support for Pan-Islamic aggression through the Arab occupiers of Judea, Samaria, eastern Jerusalem, and Gaza. These Arab occupiers want to forge another Pan-Islamic state on the carcass of a dismembered and shrunken Israel, stealing the lands of the Jews as they often do of their neighbors, including Egypt, Kurdistan, Lebanon, and Assyria.

Israeli preparations for war include, as we have already noted, possible sub-launched missile attacks, land-born missile attacks, and, potentially, material support for anti-regime forces in Iran. The Israeli cabinet, after a wrangling debate, authorized the use of force, including ground operations, against pan-Islamic rocket and mortar attacks emanating from Gaza. Recently, an Israeli man was killed in a rocket attacks while dozens of rockets have damaged property and caused minor injuries throughout the area around Gaza.

Meanwhile, as Jewish citizens seek to build homes on their own land, the Obama Administratoin, continuing to demonstrate its sympathies with the an-Islamic forces, railed against Israel calling new building in so-called "occupied" territory "unproductive". (NOTE: Judea and Samaria are considered to be "occupied" by Jews, when in fact the Arabs are the occupiers.)

The Obama Administration is seeking to suppress any Israeli counter-strike against Iran, despite Iran's efforts to become a nuclear power and despite its promises to "wipe Israel off the map." It is apparent that President Obama secretly harbors a deep-seated hatred of Israel and the Jewish people that he is afraid, if discovered, will result in a loss of support by the Jewish community who continue, despite the anti-Semitic nature of the Democrat Party, to support Democrats.

All signs have been pointing to a potential Israeli first strike, however the division of the Israeli polity by their leftist elements who are more concerned with hand-outs and who are willing to surrender Judea and Samaria in a bid to win peace (the "land for peace" agenda), is undermining the Government's efforts. Leftists are opposed to any pre-emptive strike fearing further retaliation by their Arab neighbors.
Even so, it is considered highly possible that the Israeli government which, despite the loud left, enjoy a majority support, will feel compelled to strike at Iran before it is too late.

Rumors abound that the US and the UK are pondering military action as well, however the latent anti-Semitism of the US President makes this highly improbable.

Romney Shill Behind Lynch Mob Media Attack On Cain? – Alexander Burns Joins Cain Lynching

BREAKING- Romney supporter serves on National Restaurant Association Board!

Alexander Burns was the Politico reporter who ginned up a controversy to hurt Rick Perry when he asked a Christian Pastor, off stage, to comment on whether or not Mitt Romney, a Mormon who believes in “another gospel” was a Christian. Of course, Christians reject the idea of “another testament of Jesus Christ”, as the Book of Mormon claims to be< and therefore do not consider Mormons, who have another gospel, to be Christians.

It seems that Burns is now interposing himself into the Cain lynching with his latest piece in which he claims that Cain is in damage control mode while ignoring the failure of Politico to live up to any basic journalistic standards in its anti-Cain hit piece. Burns has been subtle in his efforts to inoculate Romney against potential resistance to his claim to be a jobs creator by means of an old, un-aired ad about his ties to a failed company that received government funding.

Not so with Cain: Burns went overboard to sensationalize the ginned up scandal and seems disconnected from reality with his predictions of doom and gloom over Cain even as Cain holds strong and is getting more donations than ever as conservatives realize that, for once, they have to collectively stand up to the lynch-mob media.

It seems that Burns saves his poison quill for anyone who threatens Romney. Whether he likes Romney or simply knows that a Romney win is good for the left, Romney would lose to Obama as many conservatives refuse to support the closet Progressive RINO, no matter what, is not clear.

What is clear is that Burns saves his “gotchya” lynch-mob journalism for anyone who threatens Romney.

One biographical piece, written as Burns was leaving Harvard and heading to DC, gushed about him- 

“His success as a political blogger also has a great deal to do with his moral perspective. Although his writing is often backed up by facts and statistics, Burns is no policy wonk. Being a history and literature concentrator has sensitized him to the moral and ethical issues embedded in today’s political issues.” 

His “moral perspective” seems to have gone off the mark a bit when anyone has come close to being a threat to Romney.

Goodbye Greece

National Review Editorial- Reprinted By Permission- How does one say “Goodnight, Irene” in Greek? Or “Show Me the Way to Go Home”? Or, if neither of those classic festivity-enders does the trick, “Hit the Road, Jack”? In any case, the message needs to be sent: The party is over, and it is time for Greece to be shown the door, if the Greeks cannot find it themselves, and exit the eurozone.

 

A Greek default appears to be imminent. The question is whether it is to be an orderly default or a chaotic one. At the moment, the odds are about even between those two possibilities.

 

Prime Minister George Papandreou has called a parliamentary vote of confidence and a national referendum on the European bailout conditions to be imposed on Greece. Those conditions include bondholders’ taking a 50 percent haircut on Greek liabilities while the Greek government promises to enforce austerity measures to reduce spending and return the country’s debt-to-GDP ratio to a more manageable level (though getting Greek debt down to the level legally required by the Treaty of Maastricht is not in the works, a fact that should put the European project in perspective). Athens has made such promises before. Greek unemployment remains high, its economy a shambles. The recent recession has made things worse than they otherwise would have been.

 

The European Union being the European Union, it had been assumed that these conditions simply would be imposed by Brussels, without the Greek people’s having a say. The vote threatens to throw a monkey wrench into European designs, and markets tanked on the news. And what would happen if the Greek electorate rejected Brussels’s agenda? It is far from impossible that Brussels and Athens would simply collaborate to impose the terms in the teeth of democratic rejection. The Greeks should keep in mind the experience of those national electorates that rejected membership in the European Union only to have the same referendum voted on again and again until Brussels got its way.

 

Unhappily, the Europeans aren’t much in funds these days, which has them appealing to China for assistance in their bailout scheme. Which is to say, not only would the deal make Athens entirely subordinate to Brussels, it would make Athens entirely subordinate to a Brussels that is partly subordinate to Beijing. That may be too high a price even for the pension-loving, debt-ridden, bailout-begging Greeks to pay.

 

And we would not blame them. Membership in the European Union as currently constituted is plainly incompatible with national sovereignty. In fact, the European project has quickly proved to be not only incompatible with national sovereignty but positively hostile toward it, its consolidation of transnational power and its running rough-shod over ancient nation-states exhibiting a degree of vigor and energy shocking even to the most suspicious Euro-skeptics. This incompatibility has come to a head now over fiscal questions, but it might have come to a head as easily over questions of national defense or immigration — questions in which the interests of a France or a Finland are very different from those of a Bulgaria or a Cyprus, but which in any case will be decided in accord with no country’s national interest but in accord with the interests of the bureaucratic elite in Brussels.

 

There is very little reason for Greece, Spain, and Portugal to share a single monetary policy with Germany and France — their public finances, labor conditions, balance of trade, and other economic fundamentals are radically different, and cannot be brought into harmony without something approaching a soft dictatorship. The business cycles of the members of the European Union are not coordinated, and neither are their economic interests. Less competitive nations such as Greece suffer particularly from sharing a currency with highly productive nations such as Germany, because it takes away the option of using currency depreciation to make one’s exports more attractive on world markets. (Germany, a strong exporter, has benefited from this arrangement.) There is some wisdom in human traditions, and it turns out that the Germans and the Greek have separate countries for a reason — one of them being that they are separate peoples.

 

The theory of Europe’s Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) is that a borderless environment with a single currency would minimize economic friction and produce vast economies of scale, making Europe’s economy more competitive. Europe had an example in the United States, roughly comparable in size and population but with a much more dynamic economy, especially when it comes to the work force. There are gains to be had, unquestionably, but there are always tradeoffs, and in this case they produce a net loss for much of Europe. This was a gross miscalculation on the part of the European centralizers, who neglected to account for the fact that important, fundamental cultural differences — including language, family habits, and religion — mean that a Bulgarian factory worker or a Latvian financial manager cannot simply relocate to London or Paris the way an American worker can move from anywhere in the country to Houston or New York with relative ease. The formal, legal barriers to European integration are not the only barriers, nor even the most important. As it turns out, there are not many Europeans in Europe, which is mostly populated by French, Germans, Swiss, Italians, Greeks, Poles, etc. Wishful thinking will not make it otherwise.

 

Such realities can only be ignored for so long. The appetite of the Greek people for further austerity measures is limited, as is the appetite of the German people for expending their own hard-earned capital to prop up their careless, spendthrift neighbors. Nobody in Europe has much appetite for continued economic chaos. The best outcome and less likely outcome would be to have the economically stable northern European countries break away to form their own union. The second-best and more likely outcome is for Greece to leave the eurozone, voluntarily or involuntarily. Either scenario would probably entail a default and would bring about massive economic disruption, and not just for the Europeans. But the alternative is a prolonged, slow-motion crisis and the entrenching of the one-size-fits-all, central-planning approach from Brussels that is a very large part of the present problem and no part of its solution.

Romney and Politico In League Against Cain?

 

Is Romney Behind The High Tech Lynching of Cain?

Mitt Romney is known to play dirty pool, using smear campaigns if need be to destroy opponents, so did he surreptitiously give Politico the so-called information on this story?

Politico has so far refused to reveal its sources and is shamelessly going along with the high-tech lynching of Herman Cain. The accusations have centered around two anonymous women who received what amounts to a severance package after making accusations against Herman Cain which were later dismissed as baseless by the National Restaurant Association. Legal experts have noted that settling with employees who make such claims in order to avoid costly legal fees is more or less normal and is in no way an admission of any kind.

The women in question would be prohibited from revealing details about their case or their accusations, so there is open discussion right now about who gave Politico the news tip and why Politico would run with such a story without substantiation from independent sources, other than that such unfounded allegations, forwarded by a political campaign, fit their agenda.

Suspicion now turns to the Romney campaign, which may want to destroy Herman Cain because Caine stands between him and the nomination as the best true conservative alternative to the rino progressive. As Romney stands the most to gain, and has many connections with political insiders, the politicos who are most served by the Politico, he seems to many to be the most likely source.

A new group is organizing protests against Politico, http://occupypolitico.us, after a caller on the Laura Ingraham show called for such a campaign. Ingraham suggested a dot com version of occupypolitico, but the politico quickly snatched up that domain and in a bit of arrogant snobbery, redirected that domain to their lynch piece against Cain. Occupypolitico.us is calling on Americans to support a physical protest against Politico along with a boycott by the Politico.

RESIST THE OCCUPIERS!

What are you all doing about these “Occupiers” as I like to call them?
The following is our approach, anyone here is more than welcome to take this idea and use it for your own group or effort….

IT’S TIME TO RESIST THE OCCUPIERS!

America is under siege, socialist revolutionaries and their paid cadres are taking to the streets in a mad bid to end freedom as we know it and, once and for all, eliminate the free market! THIS IS NO JOKE and it is NOT A DRILL: they mean what they say and they say what they mean.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

We know from the Bible, a book sacred to our Founders but despised by the Occupiers, not to “return evil for evil”, so while they threaten to use violence against American patriots simply because they are successful, we need to SHOW UP in LARGE NUMBERS and show them how PEACEFUL Americans resist occupation of this nation by foreign and alien ideas that have their root in the writing of dead tyrants!

The Occupiers want to drag Americans, kicking and screaming if need be, BACK to the bad old days of the all-power socialist workers’ paradise that so many of us stood against during the Cold War. Their anachronistic slogans and Marxist-sounding rhetoric about “equality” at the point of a gun have not gone un-noticed by thoughtful Americans who embrace The Declaration of Independence and the Constititution over Mao Tse Tung or Hugo Chavez, or even Roseann Barr and Nancy Pelosi.

ARE YOU PREPARED TO STAND UP to the Occupiers?

We need to get organized and link arms QUICKLY with every freedom loving Amercian we can find to STAND UP and SHOW UP in these cities targeted by the OCCUPIERS to demonstrate that there are more of us, who love America and the values that made this nation great then those who hate America and want to impose the foreign and alien ideas of the OCCUPIERS on us all!

WILL YOU HELP?

Volunteers are needed NOW to help promote the FREEDOM alternative to the OCCUPIERS, the “RESIST THE OCCUPIERS” Project.

Our aim is to enable and equip hundreds of thousands of Americans to SHOW UP in every city targeted by the OCCUPIERS and JUST SAY NO TO SOCIALISM!

We need to see AMERICAN FLAGS not the flags of socialism organizations and REAL Americans, not the rent-a-revolutionaries or the Soros foundation, in ALL of these cities and NOW!

HERE’S WHAT YOU CAN DO:

  1. SIGN UP to be a volunteer organizer in your city or community to RESIST THE OCCUPIERS

  2. Volunteer to use social media to urge freedom-minded groups and individuals to take similar action

  3. Laiason with us if you are a member of a group that is organizing a RESIST THE OCCUPIERS activity or event

WE MUST RESIST THE OCCUPIERS and we need to take action NOW!

Stealing Your Medical Records For Profit and Political Gain- The Epic Systems Scandal

Judy Faulkner's EPIC FAIL!

Epic Systems doesn’t seem to care if your doctor and your surgeon can communicate about your medical history in an emergency- what they want is a monopoly strangelhold (worth BILLIONS in taxpayer dollars) over ALL medical records (thanks to a new rule being pushed by the Obama Administration and they’ll get it unless Congress stops them! CONTACT CONGRESSMAN ISSA ABOUT THIS NOW, ask him to investigate Epic Systems!

Judy Faulkner could gain a near monopoly over the entire “Health IT” sector through the leveraging of her insider political status with ruthless practices designed to give her company an unfair and unethical advantage in the marketplace. Faulkner, who owns Epic Systems, is getting paid by US Taxpayers to control digital access to hundreds of thousands of US citizens’ medical records and could soon control millions upon millions of medical records and get BILLIONS in taxpayer dollars.

This is theft by regulatory fiat and by insider politics, crony socialism at its worse.

CONTACT CONGRESSMAN ISSA ABOUT THIS NOW, ask him to investigate Epic Systems!

Judy Faulkner is a hyper partisan and big donor to ultra Progressive causes. In the past she has even called for virtual boycotts of businesses that supported other political causes or candidates and has even pulled contracts with providers for purely political reasons.

Judy Faulkner's EPIC FAIL!

Faulkner sees no problem, for instance, in being named to a panel that is in charge of handing out contracts to companies that provide digital record-keeping services while getting many of the best contracts herself.

What is more, Faulkner is supposed to be on this panel to provide expertise on something called interoperability. In a nutshell, that means that the government wants to ensure that different providers who NEED to see your medical records can access them easily, even if they all use different software platforms. The problem is that Faulkner’s company, Epic systems, sells a software platform that does not communicate with other software platforms.

In other words, if your doctor uses Epic Systems and your surgeon doesn’t they can’t share your information digitally in an emergency!

So why did Faulkner get named to a panel that is supposed to promote such “interoperability” when her company is the only major player in its field that explicitly, and ruthlessly, refuses to let its platform “talk” to other platforms?

The answer is simple: Faulkner is a big Obama supporter and fundraiser and has inside connections with the Obama administration.

In what amounts to a bad case of doublespeak, Faulkner is being asked to oversee the implementation of a policy goal, interoperability, that her company singularly refuses to participate in. This would be like having a KKK member being named to a panel that is supposed to promote the end of race-based separatism and discrimination.

What we see in Epic Systems is a dangerous mix of partisan extremism, and no doubt if they control your medical records they will not hesitate to use that power in partisan ways we can’t even imagine, while getting billions in taxpayer dollars, giving hundreds of millions back to Progressive political causes to finance more of the same kind of crony socialism.

body

Rumors abound that Faulkner and Epic Systems will get the contract if a new rule requiring that ALL medical records be shared with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).Under this rule the federal government would require that insurance companies submit detailed health care information about their patients. (The rule is available online at gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-07-15/pdf/2011-17609.pdf)If Faulkner gets the contract to manage these records, which is a distinct possibility, then EVERY healthcare provider would be forced to use Epic Systems because Epic Systems does not let other software programs communicate with its software. The only way to send or receive information to an Epic Systems platform is to use Epic Systems!

Judy Faulkner should be removed from ANY government panel that has to do with Health IT and NO federal contracts should go to a company that refuses to meet interoperability standards.

CONTACT CONGRESSMAN ISSA ABOUT THIS NOW, ask him to investigate Epic Systems!

Crony Socialism Is An Epic Fail For Most Americans

plan-to-pass-bill-FULL
Voters Trust GOP Presidential Candidates On Jobs More Than Obama- After a recent poll claimed that voters trust Obama more than the House Republicans to create jobs, a poll that conveniently left out the Democrats in Congress, comes a new poll that shows a very different picture: GOP candidates Rick Perry and Mitt Romney are more trusted on jobs than Obama. Is crony socialism an epic fail in the eyes of most Americans?

The Quinnipiac poll was conducted from Sept. 27 to Oct. 3 and has a margin of error of 2 percentage points.

In this poll, voters were asked if they approved of the Democrats in Congress and the Republicans, and both scored low numbers at 24 and 23 recent respectively.

Asked about whether they approved of Obama’s handling of the economy and the number who approved is only 32 percent, an all time low. Interestingly, this number itself is buoyed by the Democrats who give him a 66 percent approval. His approval among independents is only 26 percent and among Republicans it is only 4 percent.

When voters were asked to choose between Obama and either Rick Perry or Mitt Romney, Obama loses. Obama loses 45-42 percent to Perry and 49-39 percent against Romney.

A total of 77 percent of voters think the economy will get worse or stay the same if Obama is re-elected and the same number of voters, 77 percent, think the economy is in recession.

Crony socialism, or “stimulus” is not working. In fact, it could even be deadly. As we are reporting, under Obamacare cronies are getting key positions in the implementation process of Obama’s socialiszed medicine plan which, in the case of Judy Faulkner and Epic Systems, could lead to patients’ records NOT being able to accessed by a surgeon who does not use Epic Systems if the doctor does. This story is of vital concern because it involves millions of Americans and BILLIONS of dollars, but so far is being ignored by the media. It is a story that is all too common under the policies of crony socialism.

Meanwhile, House Speaker, John Boehner, posted a graphic showing that “all roads lead to nowhere” for Obama’s stimulus package disguised as a  jobs bill, which the Senate Democrats panned and have since rewritten to try to shore up the number of needed votes. Their new plan is to raise taxes FIRST, then spend MORE money on more of the same programs, many of which are rife with crony socialism, to try to stimulate the economy.

Democracy Denied: How Obama is Ignoring You and Bypassing Congress to Radically Transform America – and How to Stop Him

GET IT NOW!

 “This is a must-read for everyone who values our nation’s bedrock principles. What Obama is trying to unilaterally impose on the American people is nothing short of regulatory tyranny. Phil Kerpen breaks down the Obama administration’s regulatory onslaught and shows those of us who love the Constitution what we can do about it.”
Mark Levin, bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio host

“Phil Kerpen offers both a warning and a lesson about a radical minority and its concerted efforts to control the lives and voices of all Americans. Democracy Denied is a literal guidebook on the progressive game plan—now it’s up to us to heed the warning.” Glenn Beck, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Democracy Denied demonstrates how President Obama is packing federal agencies with handpicked liberal activists who are rewarding campaign allies, punishing opponents, and pushing the failed Keynesian fiscal policies Americans rejected at the ballot box in 2010. Phil Kerpen’s must-read book provides much-needed solutions to the unaccountable bureaucrats who seek to control what cars we drive, the foods we eat, and even the lights we use.” —U.S. Senator Jim DeMint (R-South Carolina)

“Obama is on a mission—to conceal his socialist record behind a veil of moderation. Phil Kerpen pierces that veil and shows the Obama beneath. He has broken the Obama code.” —Dick Morris, Fox News contributor

“President Obama has sought from day one to bypass elected representatives in Congress and impose his liberal agenda by regulatory fiat. This unchecked regulatory assault is draining the lifeblood from our economy and eroding our liberties. Phil Kerpen’s book is an excellent tool for anyone seeking to understand the consequences of regulatory tyranny and the story of the REINS Act—the most important reform that, if passed, will restore accountability and balance to the regulatory process.” —U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky)

“You know Team Obama is up to no good, but you don’t even know the half of it. Phil Kerpen takes you inside all the back rooms and back doors that these left-wing power-grabbers have used to subvert the will of the people—and trample the rule of law. Democracy Denied exposes you to the true size and scope of the Obama regulatory Leviathan. Kerpen’s comprehensive research will make your blood boil and stir you to action.”
Michelle Malkin, Fox News contributor and bestselling author of Culture of Corruption

“The American people are the most innovative in the world, but they are being held back by the Obama administration’s extreme regulatory agenda. Phil Kerpen cuts to the heart of this problem and shows us the path forward.” —U.S. Representative Mike Pence (R-Indiana)

“Federal regulations have the slippery tentacles of an octopus strangling businesses, families, and workers. Democracy Denied exposes the threats to economic freedom from Barack Obama’s gang of unelected regulatory zealots.” —Stephen Moore, senior economics writer and editorial board member at The Wall Street Journal

“The Obama socialist juggernaut is attempting to ride roughshod over the will of the people, skirt existing laws, and sideswipe the Constitution. In Democracy Denied, Phil Kerpen masterfully articulates the challenges we face, and, most importantly, provides common sense solutions and strategies you need to know.” —Jerry Doyle, nationally syndicated radio host

“As an elected city official, I have seen firsthand how the federal regulatory racket hurts local governments, citizens, and businesses. Phil Kerpen does an excellent job exposing abuses and offering constructive solutions to rein in the autocracy of unelected regulators.” —Erick Erickson, Editor of RedState.com

“Phil Kerpen has accomplished the impossible: he’s given us a rousing polemic against President Barack Obama without being polemical. He exposes Obama’s hidden agendas with take-no-prisoners investigative spadework instead of conspiracy-theory guesswork. And he shows us from the forefront of the battle how to stop Obama with no-nonsense legislative and political strategies that any citizen can help with.”
Ron Arnold, Executive Vice President of the Center for the Defense of Free Enterprise, and bestselling author of EcoTerror
