Rajjpuut Begins Weekly Media Evaluation

By any measure, July, 2010 was a Bad Day at Black Rock for the journalistic professionals, particularly the MSM (mainstream media). Hoping that July 31, marks the lowest of the low and a media resurgence is in the air . . . .

MEDIA MEASURES July 23 - 30, 2010

Rajjpuut hopes to stimulate the rebound of the American Journalistic Profession by running a weekly blog to be called “Media Measure” highlighting the best and the worst aspects of journalism over the past seven days. Since at present the weakest area of the media is political coverage, until further notice that will be the emphasis for Media Measure. But is such a blog truly necessary? Judge for yourself . . . .

The last full week in July, 2010, saw ten key stories play out in the political arena. Here’s a summary of what’s went on:

#1 Wikileak Reveals over 100,000 leaked Afghanistan War documents:

EVENT: A blogsite releases huge amounts of Field documents on the Afghanistan War many of which are covered in depth by the NY Times, etc.

IMPORTANCE: Unlike the “Pentagon Papers” released during the Viet Nam War this is NOT a case of our government lying to us, but rather someone getting a lot of secret documents and releasing them. It appears that the lives of troops on the ground are not that important and certainly in the Wikileak version, many Taliban informants are outright named in the documents putting their lives in danger. The NY Times ran the story but was about 95% effective in taking out names and GPS coordinates and other key information. Wiklieak and the NY Times both slanted things anti-war.

Best Reporting: ABC FOX NEWS CBS

Other: WS Journ jumped the shark to accuse liberal media of wanting to end the Afghan War without considering consequences. Excuse me? This is journalism, getting inside other journalists’s heads without proof? FACTS, FACTS, FACTS, please.

#2 JournoList Conspiracy to slant news

EVENT: After e-mail leaks, over 400 liberal journalists, academicians, media people are discovered to be involved in a thirteen-year old conspiracy via e-mail called JournoList to slant news coverage in the country.support Barack Obama and distract attacks on him using the terms “racist” and “racism.”

IMPORTANCE: Why is it that some seemingly important news doesn’t get covered while other trivial or even distorted stories are covered in sickening depth? This could be the answer. This 400+ person group conspired to lessen the impact of the “God Damn America” story with Obama’s reverend Wright by downplaying, by ignoring and by seeking or making unsubstatiated charges against conservative leaders. One woman journalist told the boys to bite the bullet on Wright that she was hurt “as a woman and a journalist” by having to ignore Monica, Jennifer Flowers, etc. for the good of the cause. These people conspired to make Barack Obama president and he succeeded.

Best Reporting: Only FOX NEWs covered the story with any depth; only FOX noted that JournoList had become extinct overnight, but that the group was still getting together as a new listserv group called CabalList.

Other: The Wall Street Journal has long criticized the MSM for left-leaning media bias, now when the proof is handed them, they completely bumble the coverage. WSJ did a horrible job on the two main stories of the week.

#3 Obama and Biden Begin “Summer of Recovery Tour”

Event: The President and VP are campaigning under the guise of a “look what great things we’ve done for you” evaluation of the economic situation.

Importance: Media coverage is automatic. If Media doesn’t put the “tour” in its proper light (a propaganda event at every stop rather than as hard news (which Obama prefers) than the Big Lie that “He’s saved us from a Great Depression” has a chance at being successfully sold and the administration's failure to provide jobs will be overlooked. Rather than using the Stimulus money back in early 2009 as one would expect, NOW, the administration is releasing a bunch of it to highlight their “tour."

Best Reporting: only FOX News and WSJ questioned the administrations, facts figures and conclusions every step of the way. Virtually all the rest of the media all the time covered the events as isolated incidents and gave ultra-positive coverage to the adminstration.

#4 and #5 and #6 Reverse-Racism Scandals Rock the DOJ + Sherrod firing by the Agriculture Department

Events: A) Obama appointee Deputy Attorney General Julie Fernandez, heading up the DOJ, has told a roomful of Department of Justice Employees there is “no interest” in investigating or prosecuting voter-intimidation or discrimination cases with White victims and Black perpetrators; and that the DOJ will not investigate violations of the Motor Voter Law “because it would dampen turnout.” B) the DOJ dropped a case won by the Bush administration against four New Black Panthers who intimidated a Black poll watcher and White voters in Philadelphia during the Presidential elections giving one Panther less than a slap on the wrist “punishment” and exonerating the rest. In another “racially-tinged matter, the administration, the Agriculture Department and the NAACP all rushed to judgment and fired a Black employee for racism; then reviewed the evidence and sought to apologize while accusing FOX News of causing their mistake.

IMPORTANCE: Is that the Department of INjustice? The first “post-racial” president has used the words “race,” “racism” and “racist” as the cornerstone of their reason for being and as their excuse for every charge of incompetence brought against them. Accusations are treated most often by the mainstream media as PROOF without further investigation (such as the “N-word” controversy during the Obamacare vote passage . . . despite literally hundreds of videocameras, the N-word was never used at that event). FOX news actually dragged its feet and did NOT cover the story until after Ms. Sherrod was fired despite administration and NAACP claims to the contrary. Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity of FOX covered the firing and the abbreviated video clip condemning Sherrod as the NAACP had and as the president and Agri-Dept did in firing her. O’Reilly and Hannity apologized to Ms. Sherrod once they had the full tapes (apologies do NOT happen in the MSM even though they have much more to apologize for than FOX).

Best Reporting: No one looked particularly good WSJ with a B- and FOX with a C+ were easily best. The rest of the media ran the NAACP and administration line that FOX had caused the Sherrod fiasco without checking it out, and of course, never apologized to FOX. Most importantly, the MSM ignored the Julie Fernandez and Black Panther stories for the most part and earned an F- as a group.

#7 White House memo on Amnesty by Presidential Edict is revealed

Event: An undated White House memo discusses the option of Presidential Directive to provide Amnesty for illegal aliens without resorting to congress

Importance: President Obama seems bent upon making the U.S. congress a rubber-stamp organization or totally irrelevant. This is clearly an unconstitutional act being contemplated

Best Reporting: ABC A FOX News B+ Too often FOX opinion commentators get off track forgetting that opinion is only valid if facts are there to support them. ABC was truly the “fair and balanced” people on this story. The problem was that there was just too little evidence to allow conjecture of the sort that FOX’s Hannity for example allowed himself to make. FOX New’s straight news coverage was actually a bit better than ABC’s but FOX opinion folk need to learn restraint. Yes, 55% of the voters now DO call Obama a “socialist” but moving from there to dictator in one fell swoop is not professional without evidence to back it up.

Lesser Stories: #8 Gulf Oil Leak Nearing Resolution? #9 Arizona Anti-Illegal Immigration Law #10 Pelosi and Rangel Scandal

Events: Ongoing long-time hard news stories

Importance: is treatment objective and accurate? Does media hold government accountable?

Best Reporting: FOX News far and away A+. Wall St. Journal A- The MSM did its best coverage on the oil spill, BP and the moratorium, but many downplayed the moratorium story, thus protecting Obama. MSM showed very little appetite for Rangel’s corruption proceedings and totally went to bat for Obama in virtually all coverage of the Arizona law. According to the MSM, Rajjpuut, a half-Hispanic is an overt racist because he thinks the prefix “il” in the word “illegal” means something.

OVERALL GRADES for the Week of July 23-30, 2010:

FOX A-

Wall St. Jour C+

ABC C-

CBS D

NBC F

PBS 40%

WASH Post 30%

NY Times 10%

CNN Totally irrelevant

Critical Commentary:

FOX needs to remember that no one needs or wants pure opinion without a strong factual basis.

The Wall Street Journal with its narrower “business” orientation does work at a handicap to broadbased news organizations but can do better.

ABC showed itself capable of hard news treated evenly and in depth with: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/immigration-memo-republicans-accuse-obama-administration-scheming-amnesty/story?id=11288210

but needs to totally revamp to once again regain the glory of its earlier history.

CBS “Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio? Or you Walter Cronkite?

NBC It’s been a long, long fall since Huntley-Brinkley.

PBS This is what the nation and “viewers like you” are paying for?

Washington Post Until they re-learn what journalism is about there is little hope. One only wonders if Mr. Obama gives them plenty of orgasms while bedding them.

NY Times Pushed the progressive Democrat agenda all week long. While it did much better than Wikileak, it still endangered our troops and Taliban informers unnecessarily.

CNN Back in the '90's, Rajjpuut some days would watch CNN coverage 3-4 hours a day, but look at their vaunted political coverage now:

CNN

Politics

· Broken Government

· CNN Polling Center

· State of the Union Address

· Midterm Elections

· The 44th President: The First Year

· Edward Kennedy: 1932-2009

· The Sotomayor Vote

· Election Center 2008

· Freshman Year

· Transition to Power

· The 44th President: Inauguration

· The 44th President: First 100 Days

Over all: A very bad week all around. Rajjpuut earned a 3.92 GPA and was his university’s “Academic Excellence Award” in Journalism winner, but takes no pride in that now . . . what a sorry disgraceful week to call oneself a “journalist!”

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

Syria and Iran move to our Southern Border.
It has been reported that Venezuela and Syria and Iran signed a PAC to help each other develop nuclear weapons, among other things. Venezuela has the uranium needed. Several planes land every week unloading people who are dispersing through out that country. Thousands of people are now a driving distance from our southern border. People who came from Syria and Iran and who knows where else?. Who are these people? What are they doing?
Factories and buildings are being built in the jungles by people from the Middle east. A driving distance from our border.
Forget the Mexican drug lords... We have Iran and Syria on our border now...
This was reported on the Hannity weekend show 2 weeks ago

This is an in depth report.

When it comes to the polices of this White House to keep our border unprotected. To suite Arizona and keep that State from protecting America, could it be we are sleeping with the enemy..? You decide..!

Every American that wants this country to survive must see this. It must be passed on to every one on your list..

Though this blog is about the Big Lie and lies in general, Rajjpuut still believes that “the truth shall set you free.” In that vein he recommends the weirdest movie ever made about truth setting anyone free: “World’s Greatest Dad” starring Robin Williams. The key characters, Kyle Clayton and Lance Clayton, both remind Rajjpuut of Barrack Obama in so many very different ways.

Understanding the Democrats BIG LIES

and All those Smaller Supporting Lies

Two of the three names in Rajjpuut’s “Truman-Reagan-Kennedy Statesmen of the Month Award” belong to Democrats John F. Kennedy and Harry S (no middle name just the initial ‘S’) Truman. It is, however, very obvious that today’s typical Democrat is not only clearly NOT of Truman’s and Kennedy’s ilk, they are not true Democrats at all, but rather merely progressive sycophants of Barack Obama’s ultra-socialist agenda. The extreme left-wing of the party has pushed out all opposition. One of the surest things about today’s Democrats is their consistent and constant use of the propaganda device known as the Big Lie.

The idea behind the Big Lie, first stated in Chapter 10 of Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” is that . . . .

“. . . In the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying.”

The final “magic” occurs when you audaciously tell your huge lie often enough . . . the sheer power of repetition . . . generally wins the day. The audacity of Barack Obama is so great that he has at least seven Big Lies (like balls he’s forever juggling) up in the air at once.

#1 Everyone opposed (who’s not in line with the beliefs, actions and goals of progressive Democrats and) to Barack Obama is a racist.

#2 The opposition are NOT patriots (nor have they any rational reasons for their abhorrence of Obama’s goals and policies) Ideas like fiscal conservativism, national security from terrorism, constitutional conservativism, and other ‘reasons’ are cover-ups for their hatred of a Black President.

#3 Barack Obama is an American patriot and statesman, who is accountable, honest, open, and wants the very best for all American people.

#4 Racism is White bigotry against Blacks and other minorities only, it can never be the other way around.

#5 Barack Obama is NOT a socialist, much less a communist.

#6 Barack Obama understands economics and has surrounded himself with great and wise people who likewise understand it.

#7 Barack Obama’s big goal is to unite all Americans.

#8. The TEA Party don’t get America and are just fringe lunatics and racists.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

Most theme parks condition you to accept the Police State but at Dollywoodthey did not do Thumb Scans, not even bag searches.

While I was at Universal Studios, Disney World, and Kennedy Space Center they didone or more of the following to me while I was there:

  1. Searched my bags
  2. Checked my cameras to make sure they were cameras by forcing me to turn them on and show them the display screen.
  3. Made me go through a Thumb Scan
  4. Made me give some form of Identification or personal information

I had went through tyranny in 3 theme parks and it is all for the guise of NationalSecurity and stopping Terrorism.

While I went to Dollywood all I had to do was buy the ticket (They accept untraceable cash as well),take it to the gate along with my camera bags, the gate guards onlychecked my ticket and told me to go through and that was it. There wasno bag search, there was no retinal scan, there was no thumb scan,there was no request for Identification, there was no no-fly list thatcompares names of random people, the theme park was relaxed and had noneed for any bag searches.

Dollywood may lead the way to what Theme Parks used to be like before 9/11. The way all theme parks usedto be was if you didn't want to pay three to four bucks per drink youcould sneak a couple cans and nobody would be the wiser, and if youhave diabetes you can sneak candy and never have to pay loads just for abit of candy because since nobody searches your bags they can't bounceyou from the theme parks due to being unable to keep paying loads perdrink.

Dollywood is the only American theme park these days that doesn't tyrannize and force their patrons to pay loads more on food.

So while Universal theme park has a thumb scan database and other theme parks are heading that way Dollywood which is technically a themepark that has faith doesn't fear the terrorists so they don't give anypower to the globalists and their fake terrorist forces that are beingfinanced by the Rothschild controlled banking groups.

When all theme parks begin to do things such as forced thumb scans, forcedretinal scans, forced drug testing, forced Identification and forcedsocial security number requests, and forced bag searches the themeparks begin to precondition us to support the Police State, that aslong as we are safe it is ok to be tyrannized and in fact the themeparks sponsored by globalists may even promote these tyrannical securitymeasures as something fun, flashy, or something cool to get everybodyinto being used to Police State measures.

The Globalists want us to accept the Police State and bag searches everywhere like it is thenorm, that there is no Constitution, that we do not need a fair justicecourt, that only precrime and invasive bag searches at every facilitycan save us from the cursive terrorists.

I believe we need to boycott all theme parks except Dollywood because since they don'tsearch bags and don't give into to tyrannical police state measures weneed to make a positive example out of this and spread the message tothe world that we don't need to let the terrorists put us in fearbecause if we do then we Have NO Human Rights because security willdissolve Liberty.

Tell everyone to only visit Dollywood not just because they don't search bags but also because they don't believe inushering in the Police State for a One World Government run by a tinyelite.

Jason Allen has chosen the wrong adversary if he wants to spread lies about an opponent. Dr. Dan Benishek simply has too much grassroots support and Allen's union-based campaign of lies fell flat, flat, flat by late Friday evening.

Don't take my word for it, ask Herman Cain.



What caused this not-so-little tempest in a teapot? Jason Allen is the union-backed Republican who has received major union backing. Some union members are web/social networking savvy and have been producing a stream of lies about Benishek. Every one of these lies are thwarted by Benishek's values, his words in campaigning and even his web site. Just be proactive as an information consumer and be on top of the truth.


If you are even mildly conservative and hear even the least unsavory 'fact' about Benishek, it was probably propagated by Allen's lie mill. Got friends in Michigan 01? Pick up the phone and let them know! Better yet, enroll in Dan's online call center and let voters all across MI 01 know the truth. Act now.

Health Care Czar David Berwick ,

"Obamacare necessarily redistibutive"

Following new Obamacare head David Berwicks' recent admission that the program was "redistributive" and would necessitate rationing; and the funding of abortions in New Mexico and Pennsylvania (the very first two Obamacare operations in existence), one might wonder just how much gullibility still exists in the American public. Apparently an enormous amount since at least 38% of Americans still say that new stimulus programs are necessary to save the country.

Loyal readers of Rajjpuut’s Folly are familiar with the “Broken Window Parable” which is Chapter #2 from Henry Hazlitt’s powerful masterpiece “Economics in One Lesson.” The whole book is online absolutely free . . . however, for those of you at least as lazy as Rajjpuut and interested in the “Reader’s Digest” version . . . .

http://jim.com/econ/chap02p1.html

Chapter 2, above, is an ultra brief MUST-read for all thinking human beings

http://jim.com/econ/chap01p1.html

http://jim.com/econ/

http://jim.com/econ/chap03p1.html

as far as the “one lesson,” Hazlitt says “Bad economists see only what immediately strikes the eye; the good economist looks well beyond the obvious. Bad economists see only the direct consequences of a proposed course; the good economist looks also at the longer and indirect consequences (the ‘unintended consequences’). Bad economists see only what the effect of a given policy has been or will be on one particular group; the good economist inquires also what the effect of the policy will be on all groups.”

Hazlitt, Rajjpuut believes, was a wonderful and very insightful man but far, far too nice. Rajjpuut’s Corollary to the “one lesson” is this: Irrationally self-interested economists and/or politicians only show you the obvious, direct benefit of their policies on one narrow group of people while deliberately ignoring the less visible, direct and indirect effects upon all taxpayers and upon the economy as a whole.

In any case, 90% of all the chicanery occurs and 99% of all economic problems arise from the deliberate political intrigue known as “wealth redistribution.” As an A#1 bad example, let’s look at the auto company bailouts engineered supposedly for the benefit of General Motors (GM) and Chrysler . . . .

Roughly $100 Billion was set aside by the U.S. government for the use of GM and Chrysler. $65 Billion has been used thus far, $50 Billion by GM and $15 Billion by Chrysler. Thus far almost $15 Billion of that $65 Billion total has been repaid. You might recall GM making a big deal of repaying $8.1 Billion and acting like they’d come all the way back to profitability . . . far from it, at that moment, GM still owed $45.3 Billion to the U.S. and $8.1 Billion to Canada. As a result of the bailout shenanigans, the U.S. government owns 61% of GM, Canada roughly 12% and the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) owns a bit more than 25% of the company. Instead of a normal bankruptcy judge, Barack Obama, defying 223 years of United States bankruptcy law orchestrated and choreographed the GM and Chrysler takeovers.

In the Obama dog and pony bankruptcy process real creditors were shunted aside with no relief and both these creditors’ money and huge amounts of taxpayer dollars went to giving the UAW partial ownership of the two failed auto companies. Need one be reminded that the UAW and other unions were the very foundation of Barack Obama’s financial support in 2008? Not only Obama’s sins need to be mentioned here . . . the United States Supreme Court refused to hear the creditors’ case, which should have yielded an “UNCONSTITUTIONAL!” slam dunk against every single action of Obama.

The $65 Billion in auto bailouts amounted to roughly $14,000 for each GM or Chrysler car. Unmentioned in all this is that the strongest American auto company, Ford which got NO bailout, has been faced with competing with that $14,000 largesse for well over a year now. Ford, the most successful American auto company was handicapped mightily and immediately became the underdog in the American Auto industry. The fact that Ford is now in a close second place, is living testament as to just how poorly Chrysler and GM have been managed since the bailouts. Chrysler may, someday soon, be standing in line with its hand out hoping for bailout #3 (1979 was the first).

The infamous “Cash for Clunkers” program was the poster child for government interference in the private sector. Although lauded as a “remarkable and totally unmitigated success” by the president and all others in the Obama administration and purportedly only going to cost $4,000 per car . . . the fact is that CfC cost the taxpayers $24, 000 per car on top of the $14,000 per automobile from the bailout itself. By some economists’ calculation, however, CfC might have actually cost $45,000 per car!

http://money.cnn.com/2009/10/28/autos/clunkers_analysis/index.htm

http://seekingalpha.com/article/152909-cash-for-clunkers-may-cost-up-to-45-354-per-vehicle

So, pulling no punches, the theft of the taxpayers’ money A) has been renamed wealth redistribution which has B) put Ford Motor Company behind the 8-ball, C) given some of Obama’s biggest supporters, the UAW, a 25% ownership in two auto companies and D) the UAW now has lots of taxpayer funds to donate to Obama’s campaigning and E) a very few auto-buyers a great new car deal at F) the expense of keeping the United States deeply in recession and taxpayers facing monstrous deficits and national debt. More importantly, a much too large sector of the public has fallen for virtually every single one of the Obama administration’s lies and sees not only Cash for Clunkers but also the auto bailout itself as “wildly successful.” With truth like that, who needs enemies?

Barack Obama has returned to promoting his five-million “green-tech jobs” program. In Spain, where they went from 3% unemployment in 1997 to 21% unemployment today after taking up just such a challenge. The theft of $667,000 worth of Spanish taxpayers’ money was necessary to subsidize each of their green jobs. Unfortunately only 10% of those jobs proved permanent while each one cost 2.2 jobs from the real economy. Translated to Barack Obama’s promise (threat?) to create five million green jobs would mean 11 million real jobs would be lost; only 500,000 permanent green jobs would be created: a 22/1 ratio of failure. Since Spanish unemployment rose 18% during the ensuing 12 years, what might Obama’s theft do to America? Help a lot of Democrats subsidize their green dreams? Help America to 28% unemployment?

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

Taxpayers paid GM and Chrysler $14,000 per car$$, but during “Cash for Clunkers” GM, Ford and Chrysler received an additional $24,000 per sale from the taxpayers.

GM and Chrysler Still

More Than $50 Billion in the Hole

The numbers are terrible but many Americans seem to have forgotten the simplest facts about the takeover of the auto industry and are instead buying into the administration’s line that “He’s saved the U.S. auto industry.” Imagine being able to sell a car while knowing that the first $14,000 of underlying costs were POOF! Magically gone . . . How in hell, can these two auto companies continue to sputter and cough in recovery?

To date the facts are these: Chrysler received $15 Billion in loans; GM received $50 Billion in loans of that $65 Billion total in auto industry goals to-date $15 Billion has been repaid by GM and Chrysler . . . neither company looks particularly healthy and, indeed, Chrysler seems to be on the verge of collapse.

By the way, Chrysler received an auto bailout in 1979 in addition to the 2008 bailout both companies were given. Is there a simple lesson here? You think? Meanwhile, the only viable American auto company, Ford Motors, finds itself between the sword and the wall. On the one hand Ford like all of America is mired in a recessionary environment in which major purchases like cars and houses are not popular decisions. On the other hand that $14,000 safety net below each GM and Chrysler car is a tough nut for a company that received no bailouts to overcome. In short, the American auto industry is facing a crucial year as the 2011 models emerge onto the lots. The likelihood is that Chrysler goes under despite all the government interference and Ford, competing against the two bailed-out entities is also threatened.

One thing, Barack Obama doesn’t want you to think about is this: his “Cash for Clunkers” program achieved the brief pinnacle in sales for the three American auto makers. But what was the cost? Without going into the economics of unnecessarily removing many viable automobiles from the nation’s roads, the cost of Cash for Clunkers (CFC) came to at least $24,000** per car. So between the bailouts and Cash for Clunkers, GM and Chrysler during that two-month period had $38,000 paid them by the government for each car sold. Obama and his people, naturally enough, called “CFC, a wildly successful program.” Much akin to saying the President “saved us^^ from Depression,” it sounds like someone is seriously stretching the truth. Rajjpuut remains highly UNimpressed by the auto bailout and so should any thinking American, like you!

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

Rajjpuut

$$ Actually, by orchestrating and manipulating the two bankruptcies, Barack Obama personally diverted huge amounts of taxpayer money into the United Auto Workers Union (UAW) by giving them a large chunk of ownership of the two ailing auto makers.

** http://money.cnn.com/2009/10/28/autos/clunkers_analysis/index.htm

FAKE "TEA PARTY" FILES AS POLITICAL PARTY IN MICHIGAN...

A group of folks, which research is showing have strong connections to the Democratic party has copied a similar situation in Florida, and filed as a political party for the elections this fall.

The so-called "chairman", is a man from Reese, MI, a former UAW steward, with whom NO ONE in ANY functioning Tea Party group in the state has ever had contact with. He hired a former legal advisor to Jim Blanchard, a past Democratic Gov., and who has represented several Democratic concerns, to help with the ballots and legal wording. They then hired another Democratic-connected company to gather signatures to be allowed on the ballot. this company was paid around $100,000 to do the work; hiring people thru newspaper ads, and paying them $1 per signature.
They attended functions where real Tea Party groups had events, and claimed to be connected in order to get signatures. They met the required amount, at over 59,000 and turned them in to the State Board of Canvassers last Friday. Many Tea Parties went to Lansing on Friday to protest and ask the Board of Canvassers to investigate and do the more thorough form of ballot checking; Mike Bouchard and the Republican Party even came to support us in our claim that WE are the REAL Tea Party, and DO NOT wish to file as a political party.
When asked about their required Convention to select candidates for November's ballot, their attorney stated he did not know the date or place it would be held. That was a lie, as they held it the VERY NEXT DAY, Saturday, July 24, while our statewide Tea Parties were holding our LiberTEA Fair in Charlotte, MI.
(which by the way, was great, but I suspect few of you atteded - you missed a great event).
The slate of candidates selected by this FAKE Tea Party are very "coincidentally" only running for offices in hotly contested races where a strong conservative is vying for a seat of a Democrat, or where a Republican incumbent is being challenged by a Democrat, hoping to take a seat. In other words, they hope to fool enough of you Tea Party supporters into thinking their candidates are really Tea Party people, and split the conservative vote to see a Democrat win. And even more troubling, if they manage to capture 1% of the vote, they will automatically be eligible to be on next year's ballots without having to collect signatures again!!
We urge you to notify everyone you know about this situation, and DO NOT VOTE FOR A "TEA PARTY" CANDIDATE printed on your November ballot!!

Soldier overseas? No voting for you

DoJ scandal reveals how thousands of military ballots may go uncounted


Posted: July 24, 2010

U.S. Department of Justice Building

In the wake of the Department of Justice's New Black Panther Party scandal, a second former DOJ attorney has now come forward, blasting the department for failing to protect American soldiers' right to vote.

What's even more alarming, the attorney claims, is that despite congressional mandates passed in 2009 to ensure military personnel overseas can participate in elections, the DOJ's Voting Section is ignoring the new laws and may allow thousands of ballots to slip through the cracks uncounted in November.

Everybody talks about the problems, but "Taking America Back" actually offers some solutions for what the nation faces. Get it now.

M. Eric Eversole is a former litigation attorney for the Voting Section of the U.S. Department of Justice and an advocate for military voters. In an opinion piece in The Washington Times, Eversole explains how soldiers in the field may be disenfranchised in the 2010 election.

"Absentee ballots must be sent to overseas military voters at least 45 days before an election to give those voters sufficient time to receive and return their ballots," Eversole explains. "The Military Postal Service Agency goes one step further and recommends that absentee ballots be sent to war zones 60 days before an election."

But legal complaints, news stories and studies all showed dozens of states failing to give soldiers enough time to vote in the 2008 election – resulting in tens of thousands of soldiers' mailed ballots that arrived too late to be counted, perhaps enough to swing, for example, Minnesota's closely contested election of Democrat Senator Al Franken.

(Story continues below)

Eversole cites the Election Assistance Commission in arguing that more than 17,000 overseas voters were disenfranchised in 2008 because their ballots arrived after the deadline. In Minnesota, which mailed absentee ballots to soldiers just 30 days before the election, Eversole contends, more than 500 military and overseas ballots arrived too late and had to be rejected.

Furthermore, a 2009 Pew Center report found more than a third of states do not provide military voters stationed abroad enough time to vote or are at high risk of not providing enough time. The study found six states provide time to vote only if their military personnel overseas return completed absentee ballots by fax or e-mail – a practice that raises questions about privacy and security.

Eversole contends that despite clear authority under the law to bring action against the offending states in 2008, the Department of Justice refused, a "misfeasance" Eversole says was "was more than Congress could stand," leading to the passage of Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment Act of 2009.

The MOVE Act contains several provisions, including mandates that states make absentee ballots available electronically and, as of November 2010, provide 45 days for oversees ballots to get to and from solders, round-trip.

But despite the MOVE Act's passage, states are still scrambling to change their election laws to comply with it, and, according to Eversole, Justice Department officials have already stated they're willing to let states slide for the 2010 election.

"A law … is only as good as the people who enforce it," Eversole contends. "In February, a senior official in the Voting Section … expressed the section's willingness to work with states to submit waiver applications and emphasized the section's desire to avoid litigation. Since February, the section has continued to advocate a position that would grant waivers freely."

"In other words," Eversole writes, "notwithstanding Congress' clear mandate, the section continues to argue that military voters should have less than 45 days to receive and return their absentee ballots."

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, has been trying for years to pass legislation that would give soldiers overseas ample time to vote, including cosponsoring the MOVE Act.

Cornyn brought up Eversole's charges in a meeting earlier this week with Defense officials responsible for ensuring military voting rights.

"I was very encouraged by what the Defense Department is doing in terms of marketing the new system to military and civilian personnel overseas," Cornyn told The Washington Times. "But the bureaucracies at both the federal and state levels are agonizingly slow. And I am concerned with the process by which waivers are being granted. I want to make sure [states] aren't being granted permission not to comply with federal law."

"I want to make sure there is not a presumption that [states] don't have to comply," Cornyn explained.

State support for AZ

I (and if the polls are accurate 70% of all Americans) am opposed to amnesty and in full support of AZ Govenor Brewers attempt to rid her state of illegals by doing the jobs the "Fed. Gov't. refuses to do". A Clinton appointed judge has determined that the state of AZ may not be legally able to protect itself and must be dependent on the Feds. I think we can help change that opinion. I hereby urge everyone who may come across this blog to contact legislators in their own states and ask them to pro actively introduce, sponsor, or support bills identical to SB 1070 in their own individual states. If thirty states passed bills identical to the one passed in AZ perhaps the Fed. Gov't. would finally get the message. Imagine if your own state had parks you could not enter because they were full of foreign drug trafficers, or that one of your largest cities were the kidnapping capital of the world, or that rural residents were being robbed and murdered by illegal aliens. In AZ they don't have to imagine this, it is part of their everyday life. They are our fellow citizens and they need our help. Call your legislators today. Implore them to sponsor legislation identical to SB 1070. It's time we demanded that those we elect do their damn jobs and if they refuse to get the hell out of our way.

Racism, Racism, Racism, Racism,

Racism, Racism . . .

Rajjpuut, who voted against Barack Obama was nonetheless ambivalent about the election of a black president in November, 2008. “Too bad it wasn’t someone with competence and experience who’s got a good head on his shoulders like Clarence Thomas, but this could be a great thing for the country.” How naïve can a Libertarian be? The candidate without proven business or government executive competence and the shortest experience resume with clearly a head full of mush has proven to be not only the worst president in our nation’s history (James Buchanan may have actually been worse overall but Obama’s first 18 months have made Buchanan look sensational so far) but also the most divisive president since Jimmy Carter and Buchanan.

Obama, the consumate expert in straight-faced lying, convinced those who voted for him that he would be efficient, super-competent, run the most open, accountable and honest administration in history; the first “post-racial” president; the most bi-partisan president in history and would “bring us together. Six amazing promises that have all earned him a grade of F-.

We have heard the word “racism” from Obama and his administration at least one-hundredfold as many times as it was heard by the Bush administration in its full eight years. He has played politics (both by invoking “racism” and by insulting the Republican party) at least fifty times more often than George Bush did in his entire two terms. How did this happen?

In a poll last week, 55% of Americans labeled Barack Obama “a socialist. Unfortunately that’s a realization they’ve arrived at 21 months too late and it’s only the tip of the iceberg. How did this realization escape voters? Barack Obama campaigned like a left-center version of Ronald Reagan and continually appealed to the best instincts of voters who, thanks to the liberal media protection of Obama (they never ever got close to truly vetting his background) never actually saw that Obama was the singlemost radical left-wing senator in American History . . . nor did they see items like this (linked immediately below) by his Kenyan birthfather, Barak (with no ‘c’) Hussein Obama, Sr. who discusses 100% tax on earnings and about six other sparkling communist desiderata:

http://www.politico.com/static/PPM41_eastafrica.html

Barak, Sr. was the subject of Barack, Jr.’s first autobiography “Dreams from My Father” and one reason 80% of those who voted for Obama know virtually nothing about his background is that his childhood, his mother’s and grandfather’s politics, and this book were never vetted. This man’s dreams were the “Dreams from My Father” that Obama, our president wrote about, lo these many years. 90% of Americans would never support a communist, but 54% of American voters did support a communist thanks to the liberal media’s great work in protecting him from scrutiny. Only FOX News did any kind of job vetting this man’s past.

When Obama’s own racism was exposed along with the racism of the good Reverend Jermiah Wright of “God damn, America” fame, the liberal media (or more correctly over 400 members of it plotting together via a 13-year old e-mail connection called “JournoList” (yes, with an ‘o’ in the center) conspired to barely cover the story and to set out calling key Republicans and other Conservatives, you guessed it: “racists” to detract attention.

http://dailycaller.com/buzz/journolist/

Now any time anyone opposes an Obama bill, program or initiative, not only does the Obama administration yell, “Racist, racist!” but often before the administration even knows it’s under attack, the liberal media is interviewing some Democrat who will call anybody who opposes any Obama idea as having racial motives. This is the man who’s promised to bring us together and now it’s quite obvious he has planned to advance his objectives by tearing us apart all along.

Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,

Cap and Trade Fix is in, NOAA Says

Earth Growing Warmer Last Five Decades +

Where did that quote in the headline come from? Here it is, from Townhall.com and TEA party blogger Rajjpuut as spoken three seconds ago, “Scientific evidence of NOAA’s and Jane Lubchenco’s bullsh__ is unmistakable.” Yep, folks, the fix is in! In deference to Barack Obama’s “Cap and Trade” legislation being in deep trouble . . . and despite the facts that the world’s premier climate research organization’s (the East Anglia University’s Climate Research Unit or CRU) purportedly 2500 year statistical study have been proven doctored and flim-flammed; and the 300-year long Medieval Warm Period a.k.a. Medieval Optimum or Medieval Climate Anomaly

http://www.prisonplanet.com/medieval-warm-period-rediscovered.html

was deliberately omitted by CRU’s (United Nation’s) climate calculations to give them their infamous “hockey stick” spike in recent years’ figures

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6936289.ece

the NOAA, another so-called scientific watchdog bureau, stated today that “the scientific evidence for global warming is unmistakable.” Why should they be believed?

Item: You might be able to fool liberals and people tied to the environmental agenda again, but when you cry “Wolf!” too often, people with common sense stop listening . . . .

http://www.petitionproject.org/

Item: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA, run by an Obama appointee Jane Lubchenco naturally, is now making climate conclusions based upon fifty-plus years instead of the 2,500 years that CRU supposedly was considering.

Item: Ms. Lubchenco calls herself a scientist, but is not, not a real scientist, she’s a gung ho “environmentalist” whose conclusions all fit the environmentalist razzle-dazzle that “the sky is falling” and “we’re all gonna die.”

Item: Until recently, the climate functioning of NOAA, was known as AIRS, the Atmospheric Institute for Research Science out of Boulder, Colorado. They were supposedly the premier Climate research group in the nation. Since they weren’t amenable to global-warming corruption, the Maryland-based NOAA was tasked with climate matters for the country. So the question is, where did this 50-years + worth of weather data come from? And, of course, talking about climate with only a fifty-year base is kind of ludicrous on the face of it.**

Item: Purportedly Ms. Lubchenco has 50 years of increasing temperatures working for her, back in 1974, the experts talked about a serious cooling trend from 1923-1974 an overlapping 51-year cooling trend. Can the “experts” from this administration be trusted to accurately research and present any facts at all? Rajjpuut remembers quite well, and perhaps you do also, that in the ‘70’s we were eaten alive by the environmental kooks^^ saying we had been in a rapid cooling period for the last fifty-one years caused by man’s corrupton of the environment and a new ice age was likely. Obama Science Czar John Holdren was quoted extensively in depth by all the print and broadcast media back then about the coming ice age.

Item: The mainstream media in Europe dutifully reported the Climate Gate rigged-science scandal when the e-mail leak made it evident back in November, 2009. Even the ultra-liberal London Times did the story up rightly . . . .

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6936289.ece

but the American media in loyalty to Obama (400+ person JournoList scandal to protect him and to cover up anti-Obama stories,

http://dailycaller.com/buzz/journolist/

to protect Obama from the Rev. Wright scandal by making “racism” charges against several leading Republicans rather than covering the Wright story, to dirty the name of Sarah Palin, and even reaching back 13 years NOT to ask the National Organization of Women (NOW) or leading feminists any questions about Bill Clinton and M0nica Lewinsky (with several leading feminist journalists talking about how tough it was to ‘bite the bullet’ for Clinton). It all comes down to a horrific journalistic scandal to control the country for liberal politician’s benefit which naturally assumes that the progressive/liberal agenda has got things straight . . . but they don’t.

Item: the #1 seminal-environmental ‘easy-read’ of all time was a 1962 pseudo-scientific expose by Rachel Carlson called “Silent Spring.” The thesis of the book was that we were wrecking our environment and soon we might have silent springs without birdsong as a result. The truth is a lot of what she was saying made easy and obvious sense. You needn’t be a rocket scientist or an environmentalist to realize that “crapping in one’s nest” is not a good long-term policy.

However, the larger truth is that a lot of what she claimed to be “science” and representing real and serious studies were balderdash. The chief results of the book’s overnight popularity is that A) the United Nations led by USA banned the pesticide dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) as a dangerous substance and pretty much a worldwide ban ensued and B) malaria deaths which had dropped to 42,000 have been averaging more than 2 million annually worldwide ever since which amounts to roughly 60 million unnecessary deaths since the ban began because C) none of Ms. Carlson’s claims against DDT were ever verified and most are untrue and D) to date, no reputable studies have ever been done showing DDT causes human cancers; or kills any animals other than mosquitoes, lice, fleas, apple boreworms, corn earworm, cotton bollworm, tobacco budworms, several varieties of potato beetles and other insects; or causes genetic defects in birds, humans, mammals, amphibians, fish or reptiles; or that DDT makes the shells of bird’s eggs thinner endangering the chicks.

Forgetting the rest of those nasty insects: the mosquito alone (remember those two million malaria deaths annully) and its gifts to humanity such as malaria, yellow fever, West Nile virus, encephalitis, meningitis, dengue fever as well as equine encephalitis, canine and feline heartworms and roughly twenty other serious diseases is the bane of mankind and nothing ever handled mosquitoes nearly so effectively as DDT. Two pieces of good news: A) Recently the World Health Organization rescinded their ban on DDT and countries like Uganda immediately began fighting malaria with it. B) Though undocumented rumors of laboratory success in doing so have floated about for years, it’s virtually impossible to transmit AIDS via mosquitoes . . . that is, because of mosquito$$ plumbing, it mighy actually happen in nature once and then not happen again for fifteen years or longer. Studying mosquito-borne diseases is a much simpler scientific venture than studying so-called global warming and so-called anthropomorphic (man-caused) global warming; and studying whether carbon dioxide can actually make global temperatures rise . . . and the selfsame environmentalist who sold us on DDT’s evil are no selling us another bill of goods. As a great, great man recently said, “Scientific evidence of NOAA’s and Jane Lubchenco’s bullsh__ is unmistakable.”

Ya’ll live long, strong and ornery,

** In fairness, Rajjpuut must admit that while weather can be easily monitored from Boulder, Colorado . . . monitoring climate from Boulder is like monitoring chipmunk populations from the moon. The oceans create and control climate so Maryland is presumably a far better place to study oceans and climate from . . . but why do we need Ms. Lubchenco, a 2009 Obama appointee involved, why replace competent oceanographers at NOAA with a political hack who’s sold her soul to the environmental extremist contigent at birth?

^^Most notably Obama Science Czar John Holdren wrote several articles on the coming ice age and the need for population control based upon the impossibility of feeding our present world populations under frigid conditions) and he also co-wrote a book about the same time combining all the extreme leftist concerns (population, environment, pollution, etc.) in which he advocated sterilizing agents in the water and food supply, forced abortions, and compulsory sterilizations. Recently, Mr. Holdren has contorted the past mightily to distance himself from his extremism.

$$ The only vector (means) for mosquito-borne AIDS would be if microscopic droplets outside the mosquito probosis (blood-sucking nose-like part) gained entrance into the next human’s body which is virtually, but not utterly impossible because of the refined techniques mosquitoes employ in sucking us dry

White Critics Accuse DOJ, Rile Obama,

Barack Disbands DOJ, Creates DoI-J and DOS-J

Boldly shouting, “We don’t need no stinkin’ Constitution,” Barack Obama at a stroke eliminated any and all further criticism from legions of constitionally-aware Americans by disbanding the Depart of Justice (DOJ) and immediately replacing its functions under aegis of the Department of Injustice; and Department of Social Justice . . . immediately the liberal media lauded the move as a “brilliant stroke,” Iluv Vem at the N.Y. Tripe, “magnificent move, a long time coming” from Kleine Joe at Times underhandedonline, and over 400 individual messages of praise from JournoList.toadies.

“I see the problem, now,” said the President as he dodged accusations of reverse-racism, “it was a matter of putting the proper name to the thing that was getting in the way, all the time.” Much like Nancy Pelosi telling unbelieving listeners, “the problem is we’ve been calling it the ‘public option,’ when its really the ‘consumer option.’ So simple to correct,” folks with commnsense all around the globe immediately began banging their heads against the wall and yanking chest hair out at the president’s latest power-grab and refusal to require any accountability by his administration.

The problem all began** with a voter-intimidation case against four paramilitary attired Black Panthers in Philadelphia, accosting White voters with a nightstick and verbal abuse; and a Black poll watcher was threatened with a beating, in 2008. The case won by the Bush DOJ, was dropped by the Obama DOJ nearly 17 months after taking office. Obama-appointee to the DOJ, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandez also has been quoted as telling a roomful of DOJ employees that the department had “no interest in cases where Black perpetrators accosted White victims” and that the DOJ would no longer investigate irregularities in the Motor Voter Law “because that might dampen turnout.” Ms. Fernandez was obviously speaking of voter turnout by the dead, by previous residents that had moved, by illegal felons, by non residents, by duplicat names on the rolls, and other irregular voters . . . . which if stymied would decrease voter turnout. “Can dead men vote thrice,” Ms. Fernandez?

In other futurenews, the Obama Department of Social justice has been empowered to spare the president and other Democrats from researching specious opportunities to yell “Racist Pigs!” at conservatives; and protect welfare cheats from annoying prosecution. ACLU employees are lining up on the Whitehouse lawn in hopes of becoming part of the new DOSJ. And in a related story, Federal Judge Susan Bolton has been arrested for not having up-to-date rabies shots after her recent ruling against the state of Arizona immigration law; Bolton's innoculation status had first been brought to the now defunct DOJ's attention after an outcry by the Southwestern Kennel Club Veterinarians Assoc.
