GOVERNMENT BAILOUT FOR NEWSPAPERS??

Does anyone else see the problem with this scenario?? As this article states, it is the job of the media to keep an eye on the politicians. God knows no politician can be trusted to not usurp their authority and/or seek more power over the populace. If the print media gets bailed out by the government, the politicians will have a direct pipeline to the editors and owners and be able to apply pressure to print, or most importantly NOT print news that may be derogatory, painting the government or certain politicians in a bad light. This unfettered "over-watch" that the media is supposed to do must remain free and un-censored if we are to have any type of control over our elected officials. I'm sure there are many who would just jump at the chance to control what the print media reports. If print media is controlled, how long will it be before radio and television fall victim to the same oversight? This blog could fall victim to this type of censorship too.

DOD THINKTANK PREPARING TO INTERVENE IN THE EVENT OF CIVIL UNREST

I don't like the sound of this.......The Posse Comitatus Act needs to be re-instated with provisions that only allow for intervention in the case of enemy attack from within. We are a heart beat away from being a police state.........Think about it.......
Here is the wiki address for the description of the Posse Comitatus act.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_Comitatus_Act

OREGON GOVERNOR WANTS A MILEAGE TAX

Once again the Dem Governor of Oregon is looking to raise taxes. The working stiff cannot catch a break with this guy. He proposes using satellite technology to track how many miles Oregonians will drive. So, even if you'd have bought a fuel efficient car or truck to save on gas, your going to get dinged anyway on the mileage tax. He is just doing what Dems do,....raise taxes every chance they get. We have the same problem he in Washington with our Dem Governor Gregoire. Click on the title to go to the story.

2008 WAS THE YEAR THAT MAN MADE GLOBAL WARMING WAS PROVED TO BE A FARCE

Very good article and worth the read. I hope that we can get the word out to our elected officials about this farce and that they should not proceed down this "green" road we appear to be headed for. Click on the title to go to the story.

LIBERAL LEGAL GROUP COMMES TO THE FOREFRONT OF POLITICS

This is a group that needs to be watched closely. It was founded by liberals who are concerned about the spread of conservatism. The article is a good read. Here is their website address... http://www.acslaw.org/ Take a look at it and check it out.

OBAMA HAVING TROUBLE COPING WITH THE NEW REALITIES OF HIS LIFE

It looks like the President Elect is having a little trouble coming to grips with the realities of his new "position". Be careful what you dream for, you might get it BHO. Life at the top is not for the faint of heart or those who seek privacy. You are under a microscope now. Click on the title to go to the story.

THE OBAMA'S RELAX IN HAWAII

Now this just my thoughts on this, but for once, I would like to have a President that is more like a regular guy. They are now in Hawaii, relaxing in a multi-million dollar mansion. Now, I may be sounding petty here because everyone knows that every President "buys" their way into the White House so that fact alone makes each sitting President not the usual kind of guy. But wouldn't it be refreshing if a "regular" type of guy was the President and truly could relate to the rest of us working kind of schmucks for a change? Just a thought.........

PRESIDENT BUSH AND VICE PRESIDENT CHANEY COMFORTED THE FAMILIES OF FALLEN MILITARY PERSONALLY AND PRIVATELY

If you listen to the "flat earth/Bush is the Devil" crowd, you would never believe this story. To you flat earth, Bush bashers,...I say this....You have no concept or idea of how stupid you really are. You are totally incapable of independent thought and rely on others to tell you what to think. You have no idea of what patriotism is and are totally clueless as to what the real price is of freedom. You sit back and enjoy the warmth of the "blanket of security" our brave, VOLUNTARY, military people provide. Then in your infinite wisdom, you criticize them and our Commander and Chief for doing their duty honorably and bravely. In my opinion, you are not deserving of the freedom this great country provides. Feel free to move OUT of this country as soon as possible as you are not worthy as being a citizen of this great country and you are using up our valuable resources that could be going to much better use by our patriotic and loyal Americans.

THE 2nd AMENDMENT AND WHY IT WAS WRITTEN INTO THE CONSTITUTION BY OUR FOREFATHERS

Ok, for all you out there that don't understand WHY our forefathers wrote the 2nd Amendment, here's the reason, plain and simple straight-up. This is what scares our politicians. The fact that we know this. That is why we must inform our elected reps on our 2nd amendment concerns and hold their feet to the fire. Make no mistake, I am in no way advocating anarchy by this posting. I am just educating all who want to know. Click on the title to go to the video. If your a patriot, you'll like it.

NEW CONCERNS OVER MEDIA CENSORSHIP

What's this? The liberals are getting worried about freedom of the press without censorship. I though that once the "Anointed One" (Obama) was elected all was going to be nirvana? Now, don't get me wrong, I am a strict "Constitutionalist" and am not in favor of any infringement of ANY of our rights as established by the Bill of Rights. Am am however quite amused when I hear a liberal now complaining about anything like this especially because they voted in their messiah and all was supposed to be great and wonderful. As usual click on the title to go to the story. This does concern me though.........

THOUSANDS OF IRAQI'S DEMAND RELEASE OF SHOE THROWING REPORTER

Click on the title to go to the story. Personally speaking, I am just amazed at how backward the middle eastern culture seems to be. GW freed I don't know how many millions of Iraqi's from the likes of Saddam Hussein and his band of thugs who on a whim would torture, maim and kill anyone for anything and this idiot has the audacity to throw his shoes at GW at a press conference. In case you may not know, that plus calling him a "dog" is the lowest insult a person could do in their culture. I take offence at that as I'm sure most of the militay troops probably did. As far as I'm concerned, pull everyone out now and let them all go back to the life they had before. They do not deserve our help if this is the gratitude they show.

MORE PROOF OF VOTER FRAUD

Click on the title to go to the video. At this point, ya gotta laugh at the level of absurdity, stupidity and the gall of the Democrat Party in their stealing of the election. Like I said before, we are going to hear about stuff the likes we have never seen or heard before. I prey that the Republicans hold their feet to the fire. Check this out!

MARIA CANTWELL REPLY TO 2ND AMMENDMENT LETTER OF CONCERN

Thank you for contacting me to express your views on gun ownership. I appreciate hearing your concerns about gun control and understand how strongly you feel about the right to bear arms.

You should know that I take our Constitution very seriously. It is a most fundamental goal for me as your Senator to work to uphold the rights guaranteed by our founding document. Furthermore, I know that recreational use and collection of guns for hunting, sport, and other activities is extremely important to you and many other law-abiding Washingtonians.

Just as I am committed to protecting Second Amendment rights, I believe you would agree with my long-standing conviction that we must keep guns out of the hands of criminals and children. I believe that our first step in preventing further criminal and youth gun violence should be stricter enforcement of responsible gun laws that punish criminal use of firearms and that make access to guns harder for children and criminals.

As your Senator, you can be assured that I will work to protect the legitimate rights of law-abiding American gun-owners, while continuing to support responsible gun control legislation to reduce crime and make our communities safer. I believe both of these goals are important and can be simultaneously accomplished through common-sense gun laws and stricter enforcement of existing laws.

Again, thank you for contacting me on this important issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me again on this or any other issue.

Sincerely,

Maria Cantwell
United States Senator

THE DIRTY LIE ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE AKA GLOBAL WARMING

For some reason unknown to me, this site will not post my narrative I have for this article. The article speaks for itself though. Read it and believe it. This is nothing short of social engineering and manipulation. Before you accuse me of being a conspiracy theory guy, read the story. There are thousands of mainstream scientists breaking ranks and telling the truth. This is being talked about more and more and needs to be fully exposed.

UNITED STATES EXCLUDED FROM LATIN AMERICA AND CARIBBEAN SUMMIT

This area has long been considered an area within the US Sphere of Influence and now it seems the U.S. has been excluded from the summit meeting being held by the respective leaders. This is not a good development because we now have no influence over the happenings that have a direct impact on our security as a nation. This is to mean not only militarily but economic.

RUSSIAN WARSHIPS WITHIN 90 MILES OF THE U.S. COASTLINE

It looks like Russia is moving in much closer than comfortable. I am old enough to remember the Cuban missile crisis and this event has me concerned. Russia is moving all through Central America and other countries in the northern part of South America making deals and cementing ties. Our Government says they are not concerned about the Russian Navy because it is a mere shadow of it's former self.........In my opinion, we need to be more vigilant than ever. We are being pushed into a corner by the Russians. How close is the Obama Administration going to allow them to get? They are also back to their usual northern overflights as they did back in the cold war era. Whats next? Click on the title to go to the story.

OBAMA'S PICK FOR CHIEF OF STAFF HAS HAD CONTAQCT WITH IL. GOVERNORS OFFICE ABOUR SENATE SEAT

Gee, it looks like the incoming Chief of Staff has been running like crazy from reporters wanting to ask questions about his contact with the Governor of Illinois regarding Obama's vacant Senate seat. Why is he being so incommunicato? Could it be that he has knowledge of Blagojevich's nafarious dealings? I think so. Click on the title to read the story.
