			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>REPORTER: Now there are dozens of so‑called sanctuary cities that have their own policies that might potentially conflict with federal law supplements like Governor Brewer to say that if Arizona&#8217;s in violation of federal law, then so are these localities. So my question is why did the president then ask DOJ to look at Arizona and not everywhere?</p>
<p>****Good question&#8212;-All states should be equal, right?</p>
<p>GIBBS: Let me — I don&#8217;t know the answer to that but I will try to seek some answer on — some answer on that. <a href="http://bit.ly/9fjQu0">http://bit.ly/9fjQu0</a></p>
<p>Then add groups like SEIU:</p>
<p>&#8220;Hope and Change&#8221; President Obama is a long-time SEIU supporter.Obama just loves the SEIU chant and &#8220;has fought side by side with them&#8221; because their agenda has been his agenda for years.</p>
<p>It seems that if the terms &#8220;racial profiling or racism&#8221; are used in immigration or when politically convenient.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t care about Mel Gibson and his dumb rantings&#8230;.Those rantings are all over T.V. and radio, but why not the following? Shouldn&#8217;t all racist rantings be given fair airtime? I think using the &#8220;race&#8221; card is igniting a division between Americans so that chaos will break out, so the government can come in and rescue us.</p>
<p>Rmember when Pelosi teared up</p>
<p><a href="http://bit.ly/bUjvN9">http://bit.ly/bUjvN9</a> Pelosi calling tea party goers racist</p>
<p>&#8220;I have concerns about some of the language that is being used because I saw this myself in the late &#8217;70s in San Francisco, this kind of rhetoric. &#8230; It created a climate in which violence took place. &#8230; I wish we would all curb our enthusiasm in some of the statements and understand that some of the ears that it is falling on are not as balanced as the person making the statements may assume. &#8230; You have to take responsibility for any incitement that [the speaker's words] may cause.&#8221; Pelosi said tearfully</p>
<p>Okay, so we can be angry an Mel Gibson, Tea Partiers, and those who use inciting type of  rhetoric.</p>
<p>&#8220;Race is an <em>insurmountable</em> barrier to success for many people&#8221;. Pelosi</p>
<p>Where is Pelosi now on the following rhetoric:</p>
<p>&#8220;You want freedom? You&#8217;re gonna have to kill some crackers! You&#8217;re gonna have to kill some of their babies!&#8221; <a href="http://bit.ly/cd8hnN">http://bit.ly/cd8hnN</a></p>
<p>Department of Justice under Attorney General Eric Holder may have backed off voter intimidation. <a href="http://bit.ly/advVx2">http://bit.ly/advVx2</a></p>
<p>&#8220;I hate white people, all of them. Every last iota of a cracker, I hate him. We didn&#8217;t come out here to play this game. There&#8217;s too much serious business going on in the black community to go out here sliding through South Street with white dirty cracker whore [ BLEEP ] on our arms and we call ourselves black men with African garb on. What the hell is wrong with you, black man? You had a (inaudible) with a white girl on your damn arm. You want freedom? You are going to have to kill some crackers. You are going to have to kill some of their babies. Click on video: <a href="http://bit.ly/bDqB3a">http://bit.ly/bDqB3a</a></p>
<p>In what context is is okay to kill white babies, Malik Shabazz (Black Panther Party) <a href="http://bit.ly/caw4zu">http://bit.ly/caw4zu</a></p>
<p>Interestingly Pelosi brought to tears by rhetoric, but where are the tears now as Black Panther says:</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t believe in overhyped rhetoric. I don&#8217;t believe in overhyped rhetoric that is not calculated to lead to serious action. And so I would say that —as an attorney and as a wise general, I don&#8217;t believe in telegraphing anything and I don&#8217;t believe —He has to speak better if he&#8217;s going to speak for this organization ever again in the future, he has to speak with a better, more calculated representation, and I believe that he has it in him to do it.</p>
<p>Leader of Black Panther: <a href="http://bit.ly/b2Bj1G">http://bit.ly/b2Bj1G</a></p>
<p>2001 died Khalid Muhammad, in 1993 “I say if they don’t get out of town…..we kill the men, we kill the women, we kill the children, we kill the babies, we kill the blind, we kill the crippled, we kill the crazy. We kill the Fa****s, we kill the lesbians. I say g*****t we kill them all</p>
<p>“The question that was debated was, was it- was it, or was it not the duty of every good revolutionary to kill all newborn white babies? Weather Underground discussion with Doug McAdam Stanford univ sociology professor</p>
<p>Glad certain group&#8217;s rhetoric is acceptable by our government while others are vilified. Make your vote count this next election. The immigration law in Arizona is just the tip of Racial iceberg. There is a lot more tension under the surface. Divided We Fall-so as Americans we have to choose to come together against what will tear us apart.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obama tries to make himself out to be open and honest, but he is not upfront with the truth or at least the truth expected by Americans. Maybe, that is why he chose to appoint another Czar while congress was out on break. Not being confirmed by Congress is explained by House Secretary, Robert Gibbs, who says there were few who don&#8217;t want progress so they just cut out those by appointing Berwick while on break. Here are some videos to watch to prove how sneaky our government is, but why so sneaky?</p>
<p>Don Berwick <em> </em> is an acknowledged socialist who absolutely believes in redistribution of healthcare, see video <a href="http://bit.ly/bcjvUg">http://bit.ly/bcjvUg</a></p>
<p>Don Berwick will head up the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. He believes in rationing???</p>
<p>BERWICK: And that any healthcare funding plan that is just equitable, civilized, and humane must, must redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate.</p>
<p>Robert Gibbs was asked if Obama agrees with Berwick, the new Medicare/Medicaid czar. And he is a czar because he wasn&#8217;t approved now by congress. Congress was bypassed on this, not because of the Republicans but because the Democrats didn&#8217;t want him, either. Why? Because the guy is a massive socialist, talks about any good healthcare system must, quoting, must, must be redistributive in nature. Redistribute the wealth.</p>
<p>Berwick was quoted &#8220;we have to ration. It&#8217;s not a question of whether we will ration, if we&#8217;ll ration but whether we&#8217;ll ration with our eyes open. So brave reporter asks the question, does the president agree he?&#8221;</p>
<p>When asked about this quote, Gibbs didn&#8217;t answer the question. Here&#8217;s what happened.</p>
<p>“Excellent health care is by definition redistributional,” Berwick said in a speech delivered on July 1, 2008. Here is a link to Gibbs response: <a href="http://bit.ly/a5aoBJ">http://bit.ly/a5aoBJ</a></p>
<p>&#8220;If (Berwick) is not provided opportunity to present his qualifications for the position in the usual process, it casts a shadow over his legitimacy and authority to serve as administrator during a critical time for CMS,&#8221; reads the letter signed by all Senate Finance Committee Republicans. <a href="http://bit.ly/aNRz9a">http://bit.ly/aNRz9a</a></p>
<p>We wanted restoration of our country. We wanted change that would build our country up, but instead we have transformation. We are almost bankrupt and shortly government run healthcare&#8230;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems to be a trend with this administration: He really didn&#8217;t mean to say that? We will deny that is what he meant. Then put into place the same program he just mentioned, but rename it&#8230;.What will be the new acronym for NASA now that space is secondary and the Muslim world is the focus of NASA. Not enough we are battling against a Mosque being built on ground zero, but now space?????? Will America ever be the focus of our own government. Fundamentally transforming us while building up other countries.</p>
<p>Charles Bolden: &#8221; Charged me with three things. One is he wanted me to help reinspire children to get into science and math. He wanted me to expand our international relationships and third and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations, to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science and engineering.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;To celebrate that murder of 3,000 Americans, they want to build a monstrous 13-story mosque at Ground Zero,&#8221; says the narrator over images of the destroyed World Trade Center. &#8220;This ground is sacred, where we weep, they rejoice &#8230; that mosque is a monument to their victory.&#8221; <a href="http://yhoo.it/bbNjLq">http://yhoo.it/bbNjLq</a></p>
<p>FROM DENIAL PLAY BOOK: White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said that Bolden &#8220;misspoke&#8221; during the interview. Continuing on the diplomacy-NASA topic, Gibbs went on to state that &#8220;that&#8217;s not the task of NASA.&#8221; <a href="http://exm.nr/9I6x48">http://exm.nr/9I6x48</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obama claims that his stimulus package is creating jobs, but is it?<a href="http://bit.ly/aQOjm8"> http://bit.ly/aQOjm8 </a></p>
<p>During the campaign, President Obama promised he would not raise taxes on anyone earning less than $250,000 a year. That promise was broken early and often&#8230;.Now what?</p>
<p>&#8220;Overall what this does is it reinforces the market&#8217;s view that the U.S. recovery is losing steam,&#8221; said Greg Salvaggio, vice president of trading at Tempus Consulting in Washington.</p>
<p>Take a look at Greece, since we will follow  if we continue to belief that debt indicates we are a wealthy country <a href="http://bit.ly/cXedh8">http://bit.ly/cXedh8</a></p>
<p>Maybe we need to read up on our government&#8217;s arrogance of power:  <a href="http://bit.ly/cEfeh5">http://bit.ly/cEfeh5</a></p>
<p>Congressman Stark opens his mouth again and reveals the the stance from the White House-drive our country into bankruptcy:</p>
<p>Watch Stark video for  yourself: <a href="http://bit.ly/cvcFrr">http://bit.ly/cvcFrr</a></p>
<p>STARK: Is the national debt measures the wealth, well, the wealthier we are. The national debt, it&#8217;s an indication of wealth of the country, you are right.</p>
<p>Reporter: So the more you owe, the more you are worth?</p>
<p>STARK: In federal account — in national scheme of things, that&#8217;s quite right.</p>
<p>&#8212;When reporter asked about economy he was treated like he was stupid&#8212;Here is an example:</p>
<p>STARK: What I would suggest is that you — they are simple minded questions that don&#8217;t relate to the realities —</p>
<p>HELFELD: What about to the viewers who don&#8217;t have a doctorate in economic —</p>
<p>STARK: If you&#8217;d shut up for a minute. Why don&#8217;t you explain to your viewers. You are blabbing away here about something you don&#8217;t know anything about.</p>
<p>Sounds like King George. He talks like we are all stupid, subject to government&#8217;s whims , so he says to shut our mouths, and just follow.</p>
<p>One last tidbit: You think that government is trying to help with jobs and our economy?</p>
<p>SEIU appointee,  Craig Becker, in charge of  being Obama’s legal advisor on big labor is under investigation. He has served on the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for barely three months&#8230;.click link for more <a href="http://bit.ly/bGVx3u">http://bit.ly/bGVx3u</a></p>
<p>Our government&#8217;s goal is to collapse the system-take it over-then we will have no choice but a full governmental control of America.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Disgusted with Nevada unions, both of us have decided to stop paying for not being heard. Our unions support both Reids, so our money is promoting two people we don&#8217;t. Here arises the problem. My husband went to the bylaws and printed out a cancellation form. The Clark County Education Association has &#8220;join&#8221; on every screen and posted down both columns, but no bylaws or cancellation form. I had to send an email and will have to go to the office tomorrow to figure out where I can no longer be part of the association they call a union anymore.</p>
<p>Here is a quote from the union I joined in 1996 and I am sickened at how we no longer have a vision for our kids, but money and power supersedes everything.</p>
<p>”NEA General Counsel Bob Chanin “Some us want to believe it is not because of our creative ideas, it is not because of the merit of our position, it is not because we care about children and it is not because we have a vision of a great public school for every child, nea and its affiliates are effective advocates because we have power and we have powere because we have 3.2 million people willing to pay us hundreds of millions of dues each year because they believe that we are the unions that effectively represent them the unions that can protect their rights and advance their interests as education employees. “ Check it out: <a href="http://bit.ly/bOVVDM">http://bit.ly/bOVVDM</a></p>
<p>It is now who you know instead, so who else seems to have gotten a  nice job as a judge based on who she knew????? Elena Kagan</p>
<p>Not sure why it matters, except I can cancel my membership with groups I don&#8217;t agree with and hopefully figure out how to cancel my union affiliation, but what about a judge and how he/she will interpret or even believe in our constitution?</p>
<p>Obama File 105 &#8220;A Pattern of Socialist Associations&#8221;-Obama&#8217;s Supreme Court Nominee-Elena Kagan-her early years <a href="http://bit.ly/dOkP9S">http://bit.ly/dOkP9S</a></p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fine if the law bans books because government won&#8217;t really enforce it.&#8221; Elana Kagan</p>
<p>The constitution is the supreme law of the land:</p>
<p>The government’s view is that although 441B does cover full-length books that these would be a quite good as applied challenge to any attempts to apply 441B in that context and I should say, the FEC has never applied 441B in that context, so for 60 years a book has never been at issue….” Sept. 9, 2009</p>
<p>What about Healthcare? There is a piece in there about regulating what people eat, so check this out:</p>
<p>When asked where in the Constitution is the federal government charged with maintaining people’s health? Congressman Clyburn responded “Well, It’s not in the constitution. There’s nothing in the constitution that says that the federal government has got anything to do with most of the stuff that we do.”</p>
<p>Kagan was asked about this too: Link you to her own words <a href="http://bit.ly/ahsppR">http://bit.ly/ahsppR</a></p>
<p>Kagan has now testified that not only does she find the Founders’ concept of “unalienable Rights” irrelevant to Constitutional interpretation, but she also declined to say if the Constitution prevents Congress from telling Americans what to eat. <a href="http://blog.heritage.org/2010/06/30/live-blogging-the-kagan-confirmation-day-three/"> <em>Her evasive non-response to Coburn’s Commerce Clause inquiry shows that she would indeed be a rubber-stamp for almost any part of the Obama agenda that Congress enacts</em></a><em>.</em></p>
<p>It is the court’s decision to make sure congress is faithful to the constitution-which is why Kagan’s nomination is so important. Judges ask if it constitutional? Judiciary branch is anti-democratic that keeps the other two branches confined within the constitution.</p>
<p>“Progressives see constitution as outdated,”  so will Kagan follow this philosophy or uphold our constitution in the court system.</p>
<p>Unions seem to think they hold the power, why? Our Constitution is not only being questioned by judges but said to be outdated? Our president is telling us and other countries that spending will eventually get us all out of debt?   This administration is taking over every part of our lives, EPA still approving a ship that could help with oil spill, Why?</p>
<p>Europe does not want to spend while obama says countries need to spend more to stimulate the economy.</p>
<p>“A strong and durable recovery also requires countries no having an undue advantage. I think we all have the same interest, and that is the United States can compete with anybody as long as we’ve got an even playing field.” President Obama</p>
<p>Science Czar John Holdren “I think ultimately, the rate of growth of material consumption is going to have to come down and there’s going to have to be a degree of redistribution of how much we consume in terms of energy and material resources in order to leave room for people who are poor, to become more prosperous.”</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s learn from history:</p>
<p>“We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work And I have just one interest, and if I am wrong somebody else can have my job.I want to see people get enough to eat…I say after eight years of this administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started, and an enormous debt to boot” Part of FDR’s Administration: Henry Morgenthau, Jr. May 1939</p>
<p>As Americans we should not allow this to happen to our country, we need to hold to our founding fathers and our Constitution:</p>
<p>The second sentence of the Declaration of Independence reads:</p>
<p><em>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During this day of celebration, we should be reminded that our freedom was paid at a cost of many lives. We used to hold that freedom as a privilege and not expected. I think I was more disgusted this week when I read an article about our borders along with watching a video where a Congressman makes fun of American citizens who are asking what the government is doing to secure our borders.</p>
<p>A headline on ABC News : Phoenix Arizona has become the kidnapping capital of America, with more incidents than any other city in the world outside of Mexico City.</p>
<p>ABC News 2-11-2009 http: <a href="http://bit.ly/9lrGpY">//bit.ly/9lrGpY</a></p>
<p>Closed off 80 miles in Arizona because it is so dangerous, even border of Texas and Juarez focused on America’s Most Wanted regarding the drug gangs hunting down police and killing them along with their families. Then we have a Congressman who wants to make of the serious issues we have along the Mexican border almost compared to Colombia???? We need to vote these people out, especially since our country is about freedom and safety.</p>
<p>Rep Pete Stark (D-CA) in office since 1973-Addressing a group on topic of border security:</p>
<p>Minuteman: “I would, just like to know well, actually American citizens are being killed right now by this drug war that is going on.”</p>
<p>See Mr. Stark in his own words: <a href="http://bit.ly/9MrPMa">http://bit.ly/9MrPMa</a></p>
<p>Our Border Patrol get spit on, things thrown at them, and are threatened on a daily basis trying to stop the drug traffic along will trying to keep the our border states safe. Here is a liberal activist degrading our police along with our border patrol. She is able to speak out because she has the freedom of speech, but apparently does not appreciate those keeping her freedom alive:</p>
<p>Listen to the words of wisdom of Elena Herrada: <a href="http://bit.ly/cGSsjW">http://bit.ly/cGSsjW</a> Oh by the way,she spoke at the US Social Forum.  The <a href="http://www.ussf2010.org/about" target="_blank">US Social Forum</a> is a huge gathering of radical liberal activists (i.e. socialists), community organizers, and union leaders. Their slogan is “another world is possible, another U.S. is necessary”.</p>
<p>Representative Maxine Waters “and guess what this liberal will be all about socialize…huh,huh, ummm, would be about …pausing…..basically taking over and the government running all of your companies.” watch her:<a href="http://bit.ly/bCiKmL"> http://bit.ly/bCiKmL</a></p>
<p>Wow, in the light of today being the 4th of July, another United States is necessary? We want the freedom that our founding father&#8217;s came across the ocean for. We want the freedom that so many died for. It is why our troops are over in Afghanistan for&#8230;.FREEDOM!!!!!!!</p>
<p>God Bless our freedom and may we never fundamentally transform our beautiful country, EVER! God Bless our troops!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our president has changed his mind regarding campaign financing. He was able to raise a large amount of money, but now is against the Republican party to raise money in the same manner that got him elected. Here are words from Congressman Hank Johnson</p>
<p>&#8220;More Republicans getting elected, both local, state and federal. What it means is that BP, a corporate wrongdoer, foreign corporation can influence elections.&#8221;</p>
<p>This is a bit bizarre too. What are you trying to say we do about population on Guam, Mr. Johnson?</p>
<p>&#8220;My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.&#8221;</p>
<p>Maybe we can find out about the status of our own country from our president:</p>
<p>“And one of the interesting things that&#8217;s happened over the last 18 months as President is for some reason people keep on being surprised when I do what I said I was going to do.” President Obama</p>
<p>&#8220;So, I say I&#8217;m going to reform our health care system and people think, Well, gosh, that&#8217;s not smart politics. Maybe we should hold off. Or I say we&#8217;re going to move forward on don&#8217;t ask, don&#8217;t tell. Somehow people say &#8212; you know, Well, why are you doing that? I&#8217;m not sure that&#8217;s not good politics. I&#8217;m doing it because I said I was going to do it and it&#8217;s the right thing to do. And people should learn that lesson about me because next year, when I start presenting some very difficult choices to the country&#8211;I hope some of these folks who are hollering about deficits and debt step up because I&#8217;m calling their bluff.&#8221; President Obama</p>
<p>Mrs. Obama may give us some insight:</p>
<p>&#8220;And Barack Obama knows that we&#8217;re going to have to make changes, we&#8217;re going to have to change our conversation. We&#8217;re going to have to change our tradition, our history. We&#8217;re going to have to move into a different place.&#8221;  Michelle Obama</p>
<p>We may want to do some reading since I am still unsure what &#8220;calling their bluff&#8221; means&#8230;..Who are &#8220;these folks?&#8221;&#8230;..One thing is for sure, his goal is to fundamentally transform our Nation.</p>
<p>&#8220;When you look at Saul Alinsky&#8217;s Rules For Radicals and he talks about defeating capitalism, the next step people don&#8217;t get much further than that. The next step is dictatorship, and that&#8217;s how you move to utopia. You&#8217;ve got to have a dictatorship. The people that help overthrow the country then become the subject of a dictator. The left doesn&#8217;t even get that.&#8221; Brad Thor (author of Foreign Influence)</p>
<p><a href="http://bit.ly/dcVFfO">http://bit.ly/dcVFfO</a> U.S. Espionage Claims Recall Cold War &#8216;Spy Mania,&#8217; Russia Says</p>
<p><a href="http://bit.ly/bE9VZf ">http://bit.ly/bE9VZf </a>Take a look at the 105 Obama Files on this site regarding his radical friends, associates, and appointees.</p>
<p>If this man is correct about our president then we are in serious trouble:</p>
<p><a href="http://bit.ly/bvhfJO">http://bit.ly/bvhfJO</a> Mouth dropping video, you have to watch what this man says about our president:</p>
<p>Dr. Richard L. Rubinstein, Yale fellow, &#8220;Distinguished Professor of the Year&#8221;, and Harvard Phd, states that president Obama&#8217;s intention is to &#8220;correct the historical mistake of the creation of the state of Israel.&#8221; Dr. Rubenstein states that president Obama due to his family heritage is extremely pro Muslim &#8211; to the point of &#8220;wanting to see the destruction of Israel.&#8221; (this is printed right above the video dated June 29, 2010)</p>
<p>We better start praying for our country!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Half a century ago we were rooting out communists as traitors to the country; now we are listening to them on C-SPAN.</p>
<p>&#8220;You Americans are so gullible. No, you won&#8217;t accept communism outright; but we&#8217;ll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you&#8217;ll finally wake up and find that you already have communism. We won&#8217;t have to fight you; we&#8217;ll so weaken your economy, until you fall like overripe fruit into our hands.&#8221; Former Secretary of Agriculture, Ezra Taft Benson</p>
<p>Look at FDR and history:</p>
<p>FDR used the Department of Agriculture as his own communist recruiting station. Henry Wallace was secretary. Wallace was a progressive supported by the Communist Party USA. He never denounced any communist support he received. FDR and Wallace decided they needed to help farmers, who were in dire financial crisis. What was their idea? They artificially raised prices. They slaughtered 6 million pigs, plowed up cotton fields, and destroyed other crops. This happened in the middle of the worst depression in our country. Is it any wonder socialism and communism end up with people starving to death?</p>
<p>See if we are watching history repeat itself? In the 1960&#8242;s, there was a list of to-do&#8217;s for total government control. Do you think this is what our founding fathers had in mind when they wrote the constitution?</p>
<p>No. 3: Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength</p>
<p>No. 15: Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States</p>
<p>No. 17: Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers&#8217; associations. Put the party line in textbooks</p>
<p>No. 20: Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions</p>
<p>No. 21: Gain control of key positions in radio, TV and motion pictures</p>
<p>No. 27: Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with &#8220;social&#8221; religion</p>
<p>No. 28: Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of &#8220;separation of church and state&#8221;</p>
<p>No. 29: Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis</p>
<p>No. 30: Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the &#8220;common man&#8221;</p>
<p>No. 36: Infiltrate and gain control of more unions</p>
<p>No. 37: Infiltrate and gain control of big business</p>
<p>More and more spending&#8230;..We can spend our way out of this recession? Government Control over healthcare? Social Justice, New World Order, Morally responsible regarding the oil spill, what next??????</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Ever wonder why President Obama said there was no point in talking with CEO at BP about the oil spill? </strong></p>
<p>A blanket moratorium is not the answer. It will not measurably reduce risk further and it will have a lasting on the nation’s economy which may be greater than that of the oil spill.</p>
<p>Will Obama&#8217;s administration listen? I don&#8217;t think so. Let&#8217;s see who will benefit most from the spill.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s start with billionaire progressive George Soros who has sunk millions on progressive websites like mediamatters or the Tides foundation. He is for and has stated that it is time for a new world order. In an interview in October of 2009 he promoted to replace our capitalist system, but with what?</p>
<p>“I believe that basically the system is broke and needs to be reconstituted.”</p>
<p>“The system we have now has actually broken down, only we haven’t recognized it and so you need to create a new one and this is the time to do it.”</p>
<p>“You really need to bring china into the creation of a new world order, financial world order, So I think you need a new world order that China has to be part of the process of creating it.”</p>
<p>What does George Soros have to do with our president and the oil spill? Well Mr. Soros has 900 million in Petrobras which is a Brazilian Oil Company which the Obama administration has decided to loan 2 billion dollars for exploration, ironically after Soros invested in Petrobras?</p>
<p>Once again, why does this matter? Soros is founder of Center for American Progress (CAP) which according to two different sources&#8221;</p>
<p>Bloomberg in November 2008, &#8220;CAP helped build the platform that triumphed in the 2008 campaign.”</p>
<p>Time Magazine in November 2009, “Not since the heritage foundation helped guide Ronald Reagan’s transition in 1981 has a single outside group held so much sway.”</p>
<p>Oh wait, the head of Obama&#8217;s transition team is John Podesta who was also a founder of the Center for American Progress (CAP). He was in charge of staffing the White House. He picked out all the cabinet members.</p>
<p>How much influence does Mr. Soros and Mr. Podesta have over the White House?</p>
<p>Well, why not ask Tony Podesta who is the lobbiest for BP. No wonder our President had no need to talk with the CEO of BP. His main man, John Podesta, could just go and talk to his brother for inside information.</p>
<p>Okay, now we are receiving Government policy about Cap &amp; Trade which is no a moral choice based on Pelosi&#8217;s statements. Really, wanna talk morality here? Obama wants to suspend deep water drilling to 1500 meters where Petrobras is drilling at  2, 777 meters. Now we are loaning money to a profit making oil company? Why are we investing in another country&#8217;s offshore drilling while trying to reduce ours?</p>
<p>Hmmm, Soros is a huge shareholder in Petrobras? Who is out to get rich here and is connected to making White House policy?</p>
<p>BP has oil spill-CAP is used to create Mr. Obama&#8217;s policy such as Cap &amp; Trade?</p>
<p>If you have forgotten, CAP was a spending bill to stimulate the economy which was written by the APOLLO Alliance-oh wait, John Podesta sits on board of both CAP an Apollo Alliance.</p>
<p>Can we say &#8220;conflict of interest?&#8221; Don&#8217;t you find it interesting, now pushing so hard for Cap &amp; Trade?</p>
<p>Soros said he would rather that Obam nationalize banks instead of bailing them out.</p>
<p>Wonder if we will nationalize everything in this country? Who is in charge of our White House? NOT &#8220;for the people by the people.&#8221;</p>
<p>We have lost too much already, so make sure you learn about who is really in charge of our country before it is too late?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Ayers sparked controversy</strong> during last year&#8217;s presidential campaign when it was disclosed the former terrorist worked closely with Obama for years</p>
<p>-Founder of Weather Underground who bombed the New York City Police headquarters in 1970, the Capitol in 1971 and the Pentagon in 1972. The group was responsible for some 30 bombings aimed at destroying the defense and security infrastructures of the U.S.</p>
<p>-Characterizing Weathermen as &#8220;an American Red Army,&#8221; Ayers summed up the organization&#8217;s ideology: &#8220;Kill all the rich people. Break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home, Kill your parents.&#8221;</p>
<p>-&#8221;Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,&#8221; Ayers recalled in his 2001 memoir, &#8220;Fugitive Days.&#8221; &#8220;The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.&#8221;</p>
<p>-Ayers brandished his unrepentant radicalism for years to come, as evidenced by his now notorious 2001 interview with the New York Times, published one day after the 9/11 attacks, in which he stated, &#8220;I don&#8217;t regret setting bombs. I feel we didn&#8217;t do enough.&#8221;</p>
<p>-Ayers posed for a photograph accompanying the New York Times piece that showed him stepping on an American flag. He said of the U.S.: &#8220;What a country. It makes me want to puke.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Connection to our President:</strong></p>
<p>The Obama campaign has cried foul when Bill Ayers comes up, claiming &#8220;guilt by association.&#8221; Yet the issue here isn&#8217;t guilt by association; it&#8217;s guilt by participation. As CAC chairman, Mr. Obama was lending moral and financial support to Mr. Ayers and his radical circle.</p>
<p>The Chicago Annemberg Challenge was the brainchild of Bill Ayers who was the founder of the Weather Underground in the 1960s. Mr. Ayers and his cohorts bombed the Pentagon, and he has never expressed regret for his actions. Barack Obama&#8217;s first run for the Illinois State Senate was launched at a 1995 gathering at Mr. Ayers&#8217;s home.</p>
<p>Sen. Obama dismissed Mr. Ayers as just &#8220;a guy who lives in my neighborhood,&#8221; and &#8220;not somebody who I exchange ideas with on a regular basis.&#8221; Yet documents in the CAC archives make clear that Mr. Ayers and Mr. Obama were partners in the CAC.</p>
<p>CAC was supposedly created to improve Chicago&#8217;s public school. Mr. Obama was appointed the first chairman of the board, which handled fiscal matters. Mr. Ayers co-chaired the foundation&#8217;s other key body, the &#8220;Collaborative,&#8221; which shaped education policy.</p>
<p>The Obama campaign issued a statement saying that Mr. Ayers had nothing to do with Obama&#8217;s &#8220;recruitment&#8221; to the board. They claim Obama was recruited by  Deborah Leff and Patricia Albjerg Graham (presidents of other foundations). Yet the archives show that, along with Ms. Leff and Ms. Graham, Mr. Ayers was one of a working group of five who assembled the initial board in 1994. Mr. Ayers founded CAC . No one would have been appointed the CAC chairman without his approval.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m a radical, Leftist, small &#8216;c&#8217; communist,&#8221; Mr. Ayers said in an interview in Ron Chepesiuk&#8217;s, &#8220;Sixties Radicals,&#8221; at about the same time Mr. Ayers was forming CAC.</p>
<p>CAC disbursed money through various far-left community organizers, such as the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (or Acorn).</p>
<p>Mr. Obama once conducted &#8220;leadership training&#8221; seminars with Acorn, and Acorn members also served as volunteers in Mr. Obama&#8217;s early campaigns. External partners like the South Shore African Village Collaborative and the Dual Language Exchange focused more on political consciousness, Afrocentricity and bilingualism than traditional education.</p>
<p>CAC funded programs that promoted parents and teachers in &#8220;leadership&#8221; roles.</p>
<p>Mr. Obama&#8217;s alma mater, the Developing Communities Project, to recruit parents to its overall political agenda. CAC records show that board member Arnold Weber was concerned that parents &#8220;organized&#8221; by community groups might be viewed by school principals &#8220;as a political threat.&#8221; Mr. Obama arranged meetings with the Collaborative to smooth out Mr. Weber&#8217;s objections.</p>
<p>Mr. Ayers is the founder of the &#8220;small schools&#8221; movement (heavily funded by CAC), in which individual schools built around specific political themes push students to &#8220;confront issues of inequity, war, and violence.&#8221; He believes teacher education programs should serve as &#8220;sites of resistance&#8221; to an oppressive system. (His teacher-training programs were also CAC funded.) The point, says Mr. Ayers in his &#8220;Teaching Toward Freedom,&#8221; is to &#8220;teach against oppression,&#8221; against America&#8217;s history of evil and racism, thereby forcing social transformation.</p>
<p><strong>Education Reform: &#8220;Safe Schools&#8221; ??????<br />
</strong></p>
<p>Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and Undersecretary Martha Kanter keynoted an education reform seminar where William Ayers was a major speaker and participant. What kind of education reform can we expect?</p>
<p>Duncan and Kanter discussed their education initiatives at a convention for the Renaissance Group, which defines itself on its website as &#8220;a proactive force for the improvement and reform of education, locally, regionally and nationally.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Add to the mix</strong> Obama&#8217;s &#8220;Safe Schools Czar&#8221; Kevin Jennings and the GLSEN(Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) Reading List. Beware as you click on this link. I don&#8217;t approve of a reading list that promotes heterosexual erotica in the classroom, but Jennings pushes for homosexual erotica. Content very explicit.  <a href="http://bit.ly/9tbHI7">http://bit.ly/9tbHI7</a></p>
<p>Barack Obama’s “Safe Schools Czar” was the keynote speaker at the GLSEN/Boston Conference at Tufts University in 2000. High school students at the conference learned about fisting and watersports from the GLSEN activists. Content very explicit.  <a href="http://bit.ly/9GKKmv">http://bit.ly/9GKKmv</a></p>
<p>Mr. Duncan, Mr. Jennings, Obama administration spokesmen and the president himself are going to have to start answering questions about all this. Refusing to do so won&#8217;t make the issue go away. Washington Post article <a href="http://bit.ly/9U7oLp">http://bit.ly/cXAABh</a></p>
