Over your shoulder there´s a world out there
You got the nerve - you gonna win
Boy you´re playing with a dangerous thing
So it goes without saying
She´s the queen of the nile
Lion woman with the crooked smile

So I guess by the previous thread that Hal is not a kid. I am sorry that he/she is filled with such hatred. But I think that this person is missing the point. We the People do not want America destroyed – plain and simple.

Actually Rose, I do apologize to you and you only. I don’t agree with some of your views but your approach isn’t full of ignorance and hate that many on the far right express.
I really do think some far right wingnuts hate this country; They are openly racist but they bash YOU if you happen to point it out to em.
They threaten to attack my leaders (violently) ; They call the Obamas , including their children every name in the book – make fun of how they look. People like Orly Taitz talk about bringing up a Civilian army to attack my country – which is SEDITION. ., I’ve even heard people on the far right talk about BURNING books that tend to go against their world view (evolution related for example)
These same people look at folks like Ann Coulter as a role model and spout that type of venom at anyone who disagrees with them.
So that’s just a little taste of where my hate comes from. I hate this side of America. They hate me. I consider them Enemies….
**********************************************************
Here is a perfect example of the pot calling the kettle black.
OMG!!!….I used the word “black”….I must be a racist.
Every single complaint that was stated in the above post was directed at the Bush Administration for eight years and for the last four of those eight years, it was dished out ten fold by the despicable leftists.
I have never made it a secret here that I am an independent and I’m equally disgusted by the right/republicans and the left/democrats….Well, I was until the current administration took over….Now I would have to say that the dems are leading the way in the disgust category….All in all, the two (actually one) party system is a friggin joke….Our country has been highjacked by corrupt career politicians.
People like Hal, that are so full of hatred, don’t even realize that they are being played like fiddle by their adored leaders….Here is a wake up call for the dumbed down MSM sheeple like Hal….The two party system is a effing charade, a production, a LIE to keep the sheeple divided and at odds with each other….Why would they do that?…..Because if “we the people” ever come together and unite, then the days of the lying, cheating, pocket lining, corrupt thief politicians will be over.
And for the record the democrats are historically the worst racists (KKK) the country has ever known and every single AA/black person that voted for Obama because he is partially black is a racist…..I do believe that MLK said something about judging a man by the content of his character and not the color of his skin…..That statement is a two way street.
STOP WATCHING THE MSM PROPAGANDA MACHINE….IT WILL POISON YOUR MIND!!!
DON”T ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE ONE OF THE SHEEPLE….BE SKEPTICAL, DO YOUR OWN INDEPEDENT INVESTIGATIONS OF ALL TOPICS AND SUBJECT MATTER!!!
BE AN IDIVIDUAL THINKER….DON”T FOLLOW A FREAKIN POLITICAL GROUP…..BE A SOVEREIGN INDEPENDENT INDIVIDUAL!!!
MARCH TO YOUR OWN DRUM!!!

If any of you ever find yourself scratching your head and thinking, “How in the hell could this have happened” in regards to our economy and the current state of our country in general, then you should ignore the title and watch this video.

Pakistan army ‘in Taliban city’
Fierce fighting is taking place between Pakistani troops and Taliban militants in Mingora, the main city in the militant-controlled Swat Valley.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8065062.stm
The military says the city is surrounded, most of the militants’ ammunition dumps are destroyed and their supply routes cut off.
The BBC’s Shoaib Hassan, in Islamabad, says it is the most important battle yet in the army’s offensive against the Taliban in Swat.
A swift victory would bolster public support for a greater fight against the militants, our correspondent adds.

“Fitna” groups as stress creators
Mufti Kifayatullah (JUI-F – Fazl-ur-Rahman group) keeps on presenting a thesis that “fatah-e-Mecca” hasn’t happened yet.
That is, basically Sharia has not been implemented, so he basically welcomes any chaos that happens before that “since Sharia is not there to address criminal behaviour” – in effect placing the same Khariji forces (historical – a group which rebelled and was put down by Hazrat Ali) who are CREATING the “fitna” and chaos in charge of the eventual “bringing of justice”.
He says “when there is Sharia we can stop all this”. This is a facetious argument, and bordering on “harami pan” because it seeks to “zich” the other party by requiring some elaborate scheme to be accomplished BEFORE the competence and “naik neeati” of the “Khariji rebels” is EVER brought to challenge.
It essentially gives a LOT of space to criminals to do whatever they want, “because there is no law and order”. Essentially it is the criminals giving THEMSELVES the license to flaunt all rules of morality “because we are not living in a time of order”.
What does that say about these people ? That they have a predilection for disorder and chaos and are EAGER for any lapse in order to assert THEIR disorder.

Baitullah’s hideouts pounded in SWA
http://www.thenews.com.pk/top_story_detail.asp?Id=22300
Saturday, May 23, 2009
PESHAWAR/WANA:
According to sources, the shelling was started at a time when a 15-member Jirga of the Mehsud tribal elders and Ulema were holding talks with Baitullah Mehsud and his key commanders near Makeen.
The Political Agent of the South Waziristan Agency, Shahab Ali Shah, had convened a meeting of the Mehsud tribal Jirga in Tank a day earlier and sought their assistance in opening the Tank-Jandola and Jandola-Wana road.
The tribesmen have been avoiding travelling on the road due to insecurity caused by frequent terrorist attacks and growing loot and murder incidents.
Security forces also restricted their movements on the usually busy Tank-Wana road due to likely terrorist attempts by the militants in the region.
The Jirga, led by Senator Maulana Saleh Shah, returned Bannu later in the night after a meeting with Baitullah Mehsud and his key commanders.Saleh Shah accused the government of deteriorating the situation by violating peace accords.
He said it was the government that sent them to the Taliban for negotiation and then started artillery shelling on the Taliban’s positions.
“This practice by the government humiliated our position before the Taliban. There was no justification for the Jirga when the government believed in use of power,” the cleric-cum-parliamentarian remarked.
Also, he said, Baitullah Mehsud denied his involvement in the suicide attack near Jandola FC camp. Shah said he noticed that the Taliban militants were preparing themselves for likely military action against them.
Another noted tribal elder said during a meeting with the political agent, they felt that the government had already made up its mind to launch a full-scale military operation in the South Waziristan Agency.
He said 80 per cent Mehsud tribesmen had shifted to downtowns in Tank and Dera Ismail Khan districts in the past few days due to fears of military operation.

Shine your Searchlight on Harry Reid
Harry Reid sending out confusing signals
Most notably among them Harry Reid, the Senate majority leader, who spent the week sending out confusing signals on just where he stood.
“We are wanting and willing to work with” the president to come up with a solution to the detainee controversy, Reid said Thursday — a statement that conspicuously left open the possibility that some detainees would eventually be incarcerated in U.S. prisons.
Only two days earlier, Reid had adamantly told reporters he opposed the release of any of the detainees into the United States. On Wednesday, he joined 89 other senators in both parties who voted to prohibit their transfer.
Harry Reid’s Big Dairy Error
http://www.opinionjournal.com/best/?id=110006106
EXCERPT
When Congress reconvenes tomorrow, Sen. Harry Reid of Nevada is set to become the leader of the Senate Democrats.
Readers of this column will recall that last month we criticized Reid for calling Justice Clarence Thomas an “embarrassment” and saying Thomas’s opinions are “poorly written,” in contrast with those of the brilliant Antonin Scalia.
We noted that Reid hadn’t given an example of a poorly written Thomas opinion, and wondered if Reid’s statement didn’t amount to simple bigotry: stereotyping Thomas as unintelligent because he is black.
An alert reader points out that on the Dec. 26 episode of “Inside Politics,” a little-watched CNN show, Reid actually did name such an opinion, at the request of host Ed Henry (we’ve corrected several obvious transcription errors here):
Henry: When you were asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” whether or not you could support Justice Thomas to be chief justice you said quote, “I think that he has been an embarrassment to the Supreme Court. I think that his opinions are poorly written.”
Could you name one of those opinions that you think is poorly written?
Reid: Oh sure, that’s easy to do. You take the Hillside Dairy case. In that case you had a dissent written by Scalia and a dissent written by Thomas. There–it’s like looking at an eighth-grade dissertation compared to somebody who just graduated from Harvard.
Scalia’s is well reasoned. He doesn’t want to turn stare decisis precedent on its head. That’s what Thomas wants to do. So yes, I think he has written a very poor opinion there and he’s written other opinions that are not very good.
***
Here is Thomas’s opinion in full:
I join Parts I and III of the Court’s opinion and respectfully dissent from Part II, which holds that §144 of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996, 7 U.S.C. §7254, “does not clearly express an intent to insulate California’s pricing and pooling laws from a Commerce Clause challenge.” Ante, at 6-7. Although I agree that the Court of Appeals erred in its statutory analysis, I nevertheless would affirm its judgment on this claim because “[t]he negative Commerce Clause has no basis in the text of the Constitution, makes little sense, and has proved virtually unworkable in application,” Camps Newfound/Owatonna, Inc. v. Town of Harrison, 520 U.S. 564, 610 (1997) (Thomas, J., dissenting), and, consequently, cannot serve as a basis for striking down a state statute.
Is that written at an eighth-grade level? We report, you decide.

Mr. Daniels, a Republican, is the governor of Indiana .
Indiana Says ‘No Thanks’ to Cap and Trade
No honest person thinks this will make a dent in climate change.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124234844782222081.html
We are told that although China, India and others show no signs of joining in this dismal process, we will eventually induce their participation by “setting an example.” Watching the impending indigence of the Midwest, and the flow of jobs from our shores to theirs, our friends in Asia and the Third World are far more likely to choose any other path but ours.
Politicians in Washington speak of a reawakened appreciation for manufacturing and American competitiveness. But under their policy, those who make real products will suffer. Already we observe the piranha swarm of green lobbyists wangling special exemptions, subsidies and side deals. The ordinary Hoosier was not invited to this party, and can expect at most only table scraps at the service entrance.
No one in Indiana is arguing for the status quo: Hoosiers have been eager to pursue a new energy future. We rocketed from nowhere to national leadership in biofuels production in the last four years. We were the No. 1 state in the growth of wind power in 2008. And we have embarked on an aggressive energy-conservation program, indubitably the most cost-effective means of limiting CO2.
Most importantly, we are out to be the world leader in making clean coal — including the potential for carbon capture and sequestration. The world’s first commercial-scale clean coal power plant is under construction in our state, and the first modern coal-to-natural gas plant is coming right behind it. We eagerly accept the responsibility to develop alternatives to the punitive, inequitable taxation of cap and trade.
Our president has commendably committed himself to “government that works.” But his imperial climate-change policy is government that cannot work, and we humble colonials out here in the provinces have no choice but to petition for relief from the Crown’s impositions.

You Can’t Possibly Take Care of Yourself
What worries me about Obama is not the specifics of
the nationalization of GM and Chrysler,
the government rescue of the United Auto Workers,
the effort to take over college financing,
proposed universal health care, (“universal” is good; “public” option bad)
massive deficits and tax increases,
although they are worrisome and only the beginning, (uh, yeah!)
but the attendant culture of ‘inflate your tires’ and ‘wash your hands’ paternalism.
I think we are entering an age in which the federal government will increasingly guide our thoughts into what is deemed correct –
the sort of car we must drive, the type of salary we should make, the sort of job we should have, even the type of thoughts we are to express, and all in the name of collective brotherhood.
(You see, Michael Steele is right!)
The slavish manner in which the media lock stepped into
Bush the near fascist for tribunals, wiretaps, intercepts, renditions, Patriot Act, Iraq, and Guantanamo, followed by choruses of
Obama the sensitive, anguished overseer of tribunals, wiretaps, intercepts, renditions, Patriot Act, Iraq, and Guantanamo was
one of the most frightening things I ‘ve seen in a free society in 50 years.

http://www.sunjournal.com/story/318553-3/MaineNews/Health_care_reform_yes_soda_tax_no_Snowe_says/
Even as lobbying efforts supporting varying plans are ramped up, Snowe said she’s determined to keep an open mind on what policy direction the country should take.
“How do we foster competition? We’ve seen in Maine what can happen with a lack of competition,” she said, referring to high health care premium costs in the Pine Tree State. “I have strong reservations about a public option. We’ve got to determine ways in which we can reform the private market; once you develop a public plan, it’s going to be very difficult to create a system where everyone is playing at the same level.”
The key to successful reform, she said, is standardizing an affordable plan and then allowing private insurance companies to compete with each over that market. The best way to achieve that goal may be to create a public plan as a fallback option if the private market fails to meet reform goals, similar to how Medicaid Part D was developed, Snowe said.
***
“We had a fallback plan when there weren’t two or more competitive plans, but it’s never been triggered,” Snowe said. “At that time, we were talking about a market of $300 billion or less and now some estimate the value of the health care industry to be about $2 trillion – that’s the enticement. Which insurance company won’t want to be involved?”
(This is a very important point and one which should be driven home by moderate Repubs and Dems.)
***
Snowe said her committee is working hard to establish bipartisan support for whatever legislation they develop and believes President Obama realizes that for any new system to be credible to the public it will need endorsement from members on both sides of the aisle.
The arduous policy work is scheduled to continue throughout the summer, Snowe said.
“I’m trying to see the forest for the trees,” she said. “During all these sessions I’m thinking, ‘What do I want this to look like?’ and I can see a place where we could construct something.”

Robert Spence was just on Fox News laying out the funding and organizations in US prisons building up subversive Islamic recruitment.
As soon as he tied the organization and funding back to the Saudis, the host cut him off “well they are not here to defend themselves” and ended the interview.

Michael Steele: Obama wasn’t vetted folks!
by DefendUSx May 24, 2009 01:20
Steele said this on a radio talk show earlier this week:
“The problem that we have with this president is that we don’t know him,” he said. “He was not vetted, folks. … He was not vetted, because the press fell in love with the black man running for the office. ‘Oh gee, wouldn’t it be neat to do that? Gee, wouldn’t it make all of our liberal guilt just go away? We can continue to ride around in our limousines and feel so lucky to live in an America with a black president.’ Okay that’s wonderful, great scenario, nice backdrop. But what does he stand for? What does he believe? … So we don’t know. We just don’t know.”

I’m glad someone is paying attention to this. I wonder what is the status of 773 and 778.
Senate bills No. 773 and 778, introduced by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.V., are both part of what’s being called the Cybersecurity Act of 2009, which would create a new Office of the National Cybersecurity Advisor, reportable directly to the president and charged with defending the country from cyber attack.
A working draft of the legislation
http://cdt.org/security/CYBERSEC4.pdf
obtained by an Internet privacy group also spells out plans to grant the Secretary of Commerce access to all privately owned information networks deemed to be critical to the nation’s infrastructure “without regard to any provision of law, regulation, rule or policy restricting such access.”
Analysis of S. 773, Cybersecurity Act of 2009

Conclusion
In our view, the Rockefeller-Snowe legislation has jumpstarted a vital dialogue on the development of a more effective national cybersecurity system.
It raises critical issues of information sharing, software assurance and incentives for private sector action.
However, the bill as introduced paints with too broad a brush.
It vests too much power with governmental entities at the expense of civil liberties and innovation, and fails to recognize the special status of those components of the Internet that have a particularly sensitive role in supporting free speech, economic innovation, and democratic activity.
CDT looks forward to working with Senators Rockefeller and Snowe to improve the legislation.

Jets pound militants in Orakzai Agency, 13 dead
KOHAT: An important commander of the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) was among the 13 militants killed in air strikes by jets in lower and upper Orakzai Agency on Sunday.

Know Your Enemy — Baitullah Mehsud
South Punjab sees Taliban connection as stigma
LAHORE: ‘Wrong address,’ cry out the people in south Punjab as they receive another journalist arriving to look for Taliban and terrorists in their midst.
http://www.dawn.com/wps/wcm/connect/dawn-content-library/dawn/news/pakistan/provinces/12-south-punjab-sees-taliban-connection-as-stigma–bi-14
South Punjab has grabbed the attention of the western media and their governments over the past few months because of the alleged involvement of the so-called Punjabi Taliban — a blanket term for members of banned sectarian/jihadi groups like Lashkar-i-Jhangvi, Sipah-i-Sahaba Pakistan and Jaish-i-Mohammad arrested in Punjab and the federal capital after a spate of terror attacks.
The alleged links of operatives of outlawed sectarian and jihadi groups from the ‘impoverished’ south Punjab with Baitullah Mehsud’s Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan and other militant groups in Fata and Swat are also a cause of concern in the western capitals, as well as for the NWFP government.
Americans are worried because the purported liaison between the outlawed sectarian groups (for whom southern Punjab serves as catchment area) and TTP in parts of the NWFP threatens the stability of the country.
The NWFP government is anxious because it believes that ‘fresh recruits’ for militant groups challenging its writ are coming mostly from the southern districts of Punjab — D.G. Khan, Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar, Muzaffargarh, etc.

I have been a student of the Middle East and North Africa for a very long time.
May I suggest that, when it comes to Israel, you please pay attention to what is being said inside Israel. Many times, the American voices that you are hearing are much farther to the right than the average Israeli.
After all, they are the ones who have to live over there.
I don’t know what Netanyahu will ultimately decide to do, Vis-à-vis Iran.
But he won’t do anything that won’t succeed, and not without a majority of his people supporting him.

Imagining the Other
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/24/books/review/Schillinger-t.html?ref=world
Amos Oz has been obsessed with the land and the state of Israel and the city of Jerusalem — where he was born in 1939 — for all his writing life.
Oz once wrote that he loved Jerusalem “as one loves a disdainful woman,” but he has often reproved what he loves.
A lifelong Zionist, he is also a staunch advocate of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which he has characterized as a clash of “right against right” and, more recently, as “wrong against wrong.”
His views have made him controversial in Israel, even as his writing (most recently the haunting memoir “A Tale of Love and Darkness,” set mostly in the Jerusalem of his boyhood), has made him beloved.
“My stories and my articles,” he admitted long ago, “have often unleashed a storm of public fury against me.”

Stealth Legislation: HR 985 To Protect Obama From Providing His Birth Certificate

Update: Obots are saying it doesn’t apply to Obama. It applies to Judges as employees of state governments to make sure and include these excuses below as a means to counter scrutiny for providing document or media forgeries.
Obots are correct, it does apply to media, but also applies to any businesses conducting suspected document transfers.
And .. don’t forget, the media has tried pushing that bogus Certification of Live Birth forgery as proof, and would not need to come up with a corrosponding document to prove its’ validity otherwise.
Also, any agency publishing public information (i.e. the White House) is also protected by the bill from disclosing important documents. National Security in this instance should definitely not be used a guise. The opposite should be true, instead using the public as a guaging tool (and who gets to determine “how interested” the public is?), any agency suspected of fraudulent transactions or publishing media forgeries should be be required to show proof.

I’m trying to figure out where “David-Crockett” got this from.
Geez-Louise! Are there two Lisa Liberi(s) or only one?
How hard is it to answer such a simple question?
All I know is that if it turns out there’s two, DrOrly is going to look like a horse’s ass!

13. • I uncover that Lisa Liberi, assistant for Philip Berg has an extensive criminal record in the state of CA, including forgery of documents and grand theft. It was reported that Liberi was born in the state of WA (I am verifying). Liberi has numerous social security numbers. Was she planted to discredit the whole effort? I report it to Berg and recommend to go together to FBI and demand investigation and to hire a forensic document examiner to check all the docs handled by her. Instead Berg is filing a frivolous malicious law suit against me and everybody around, trying to intimidate me and trying to keep me quite.
14. • Berg is trying to obfuscate the truth by posting his office address in the pleadings as hers even though she lives in Santa Fe NM and corresponds with Berg by e-mails and phone while she is being supervised by the Santa Fe probation officers.
