“The Agenda Project — the same progressive group behind the “Patriotic Millionaires” club and the uber classy “F*ck Tea” movement — are at it again, this time using their activist roots to drum up opposition to House Republicans’ budget proposal.
In a new YouTube video campaign sure to be a hit on the left, the group wonders if America is still beautiful without Medicare as we know it.
“Now, Republicans want to privatize Medicare,” the ad warns, right before a faceless suit dumps a wheelchair-bound grandma off a cliff:
{…}
The YouTube video description reads:
With pretty boy Paul Ryan’s draconian and savage cuts to Medicare in his budget proposal, we have to ask ourselves: Is America still beautiful without Medicare?
Apparently to these liberal activists, America was quite ugly during its nearly 200 years of history prior to 1965.
Erica Payne, founder of Agenda Project, sat down with Neil Cavuto to defend the ad:

PS — Why am I not surprised to learn the founder of this group has direct ties to George Soros and Obama administration officials? I tell ya — it’s SUCH a small world!”

Posted on The Blaze-By Jonathon M. Seidl-On May 19, 2011:
“The internet was ablaze this evening with the embarrassing story of the Secret Service accidentally tweeting an anti-Fox News message characterizing the outlet’s coverage as “blathering.” The tweet, which was meant to be sent out on an employee’s personal account, said that the Secret Service had to “monitor Fox for a story.”
That raises the question: What story?
Fox has a pretty good idea.
In a post about the incident on a Fox News blog, the outlet conjectures the Secret Service was looking to see how Fox covered the story of Vito LaPinta, the 13-year-old Tacoma, WA boy questioned by the Secret Service for posting a Facebook message about Obama (read that story here).
This is what Fox had to say:
Shortly after 3 p.m. Wednesday, the Secret Service’s account declared on the social media site: “Had to monitor Fox for a story. Can’t. Deal. With. The. Blathering.”
The posting was quickly removed, but within a half-hour dozens of other Twitter users had already begun re-posting — or “re-Tweeting” — the message.
[...]
Earlier in the day, Fox News had been covering the story of Vito LaPinta, the 13-year-old from Tacoma, Wash., who was recently visited by a Secret Service agent for posting a message on Facebook suggesting President Obama should watch out for terrorist attacks in the wake of Usama bin Laden’s killing. LaPinta’s mother was not present when the Secret Service interviewed her son, a move she decried as inappropriate.
For the record, LaPinta’s story did get some coverage on TV, but not an inordinate amount. It only garnered one post on Foxnews.com that actually linked out to a local news report.
As a side note, the Secret Service did not respond to the local Fox station‘s request for comment regarding its handling of the young boy’s case. But, within only hours of the errant tweet, it did issue a statement announcing the Twitter message was an accident.
The obvious question now is: Will the Secret Service assign someone on Thursday to monitor Fox’s coverage of the flubbed monitoring?
I have a guess.”

Posted on FoxNews.com-By The Associated Press-On May 19, 2011:
“President Obama, in a sweeping address tackling the uprisings in the Middle East and the stalled peace process, on Thursday endorsed Palestinians’ demand for their own state based on the borders that existed before the 1967 Six-Day War.
The break with longstanding U.S. policy is likely to aggravate the Israelis, who want the borders of any future Palestinian state determined through negotiations. The declaration comes ahead of a meeting in Washington between Obama and visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“The status quo is unsustainable,” Obama said. “A lasting peace will involve two states for two peoples.”
The U.S. had previously endorsed the concept of a Palestinian state, but not the demand for permanent pre-1967 borders, with mutually agreed land swaps.
Though the shift will likely create tension as the president meets with Netanyahu and heads next to address Israel advocacy group AIPAC this weekend, Obama sought to assure that the United States’ commitment to Israeli security is “unshakable.”
He said Israeli’s right to defend itself will remain paramount, and suggested the recent unity agreement between Fatah and Hamas, which the U.S. deems a terrorist group, is problematic for negotiations. Though Israel occupied East Jerusalem, along with the West Bank and Gaza Strip, in the 1967 Six Day War, Obama said Thursday that the “future of Jerusalem” remains to be worked out, as does the fate of Palestinian refugees.
He also publicly rejected attempts by the Palestinians to gain recognition for their own state before the United Nations. “Symbolic actions to isolate Israel at the United Nations in September won’t create an independent state,” Obama said.
The border announcement, which came toward the end of the president’s 50-minute speech, was arguably the most significant statement in an address otherwise devoted to underscoring U.S. support for the uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa. Speaking at the State Department, the president sought to align the U.S. with the ambitions of protesters pushing for economic and political reform, while warning heads of state who resist this wave that the U.S. is losing patience.
“We cannot hesitate to stand squarely on the side of those who are reaching for their rights, knowing that their success will bring about a world that is more peaceful, more stable, and more just,” he said.
Obama, in his strongest words to date, offered an ultimatum to Syrian President Bashar Assad. “President Assad now has a choice. He can lead that transition or get out of the way,” Obama said.
He said Assad’s regime, which has killed hundreds in an effort to quell the unrest in Syria, must stop shooting and arresting its people.
Obama also called Al Qaeda and Usama bin Laden, who was killed by U.S. forces in Pakistan, a “dead end,” suggesting the push for reform will represent the future of the region. He sought to connect the death of bin Laden to the wave of protests, arguing that anti-western rhetoric and attacks are losing their audience. “The slaughter of innocents did not answer their cry for a better life,” he said.
Rather, Obama said: “A new generation has emerged and their voices tell us that change cannot be denied.”
The president is taking a carrot-and-stick approach as the Arab Spring turns to summer and protesters’ demands across the region are met with repression.
After sending U.S. forces into Libya two months ago to halt strongman Muammar al-Qaddafi’s advances against his people, the Obama administration sent a message Wednesday to Assad by slapping him and top officials in Damascus with financial sanctions over his regime’s brutal crackdown.
Obama, in his speech Thursday, addressed the standoff in these two countries, staunchly defending U.S. military involvement in Libya. But he also offered new levels of support to Egypt and Tunisia, countries where demonstrations ousted entrenched leaders and which the administration is holding up as a “beacon” in the region, according to one official.
He outlined specific dollar support for Egypt, where the nation’s tourism-fueled economy has fallen into a slump in the wake of the upheaval, in turn increasing the country’s projected deficit. Obama said Thursday the U.S. would forgive roughly $1 billion in debt owed by Egypt to free up money for job-creation efforts there. Plus he plans to guarantee up to $1 billion in loans for Egypt through the Overseas Private Investment Corp., a U.S. government institution that mobilizes private capital.
Obama is pushing other steps to bolster loans, trade and international support in Egypt and in Tunisia. Protesters in Bahrain, Yemen, Syria and other nations have endured brutal setbacks. He said the changes in the region mark a “new chapter” for U.S. diplomacy and argued that America has an important role to play.
A new poll out of the Pew Research Center, though, found that the shifting political sands in the Middle East have not generally led to an improvement in the U.S. image in the region.“

Posted on NewsMax.com-By Newsmax Wires-On May 18, 2011:
“Sarah Palin, Tim Pawlenty and other leading conservatives blasted former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Obama administration Wednesday over the huge number of waivers from the national healthcare law being granted to posh eateries and other businesses in Pelosi’s San Francisco district.
Pelosi and administration officials, meanwhile, fired back saying the lawmaker had nothing to do with the waivers and that conservatives were orchestrating a smear campaign.
“Seriously, this is corrupt,” Palin told The Daily Caller, referring to the waivers the San Francisco businesses received. “And anyone who still supports the Pelosi-Reid-Obama agenda of centralized government takeovers of the free market and the corresponding crony capitalism is, in my book, complicit.”
But the two-day dustup may have obscured a more pressing question for Democrats: Why are businesses in liberal San Francisco and elsewhere clamoring to opt out of the massive healthcare law that was supposed to help them?
The answer boils down to simple dollars and sense, experts say. Because so-called Obamacare prohibits lifetime dollar limits on health insurance plans, businesses from Pelosi’s -- as well as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s -- districts are demanding waivers because they already are paying for employees to be covered in plans with limits in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“Obamacare forbids insurers from placing annual and lifetime limits on health plans,” explained The Heritage Foundation’s Kathryn Nix on the think tanks’ blog. “These ‘consumer protections’ have endangered the limited coverage plans that some employers currently offer.
“Unable to provide more comprehensive coverage, those employers would be forced to drop coverage altogether if they abide by the new law. To avoid this consequence of the new law, employers are flocking to secure the waivers offered by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to keep their employees covered.”
Heritage’s Foundry blog likened the situation to a sickened patient clamoring to be spared the vaccine that’s supposed to save them. The patient knows better than the “doctor” it may end up killing them.
In fact, the law very well could destabilize the entire national health insurance market, according to Sen. Dean Heller, R-NV.
“It is becoming increasingly clear how flawed this law really is,” Heller said. “Not only did it cut a half trillion dollars from Medicare, impacting thousands of Nevada’s seniors, now the law would have driven health insurers out of our state if a reprieve had not been granted . . . This is why ‘Obamacare’ will not work for Nevada.”
On Monday, The Daily Caller ignited the debate with a story reporting that among HHS’s most recent round of 204 Obamacare waivers granted across the nation, “38 are for fancy eateries, hip nightclubs and decadent hotels in House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s Northern California district.” To date, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has approved just 1,372 Obamacare waivers [1], covering 3.1 million [1] Americans.
Conservatives, reacting to the fact that 19 percent of the waivers had gone to the district of one of the law’s unabashed champions, didn’t hold back.
“It looks like Obamacare’s backroom sweetheart deals didn’t end when it became law,” House Speaker John Boehner’s spokesman, Michael Steel, told the Daily Caller.
Palin accused the Obama administration of corruption for granting the waivers to constituents of a key Democratic ally.
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) plans to use the waiver controversy to attack Democratic supporters of healthcare reform on the 2012 campaign trail.
Republicans played up the news of businesses in Pelosi’s district asking for exemptions to parts of the new healthcare law, The Hill reported.
“Remember when former Speaker Pelosi said we needed to pass the Obamacare bill to find out what was in it?” Steel told The Hill in an email. “I guess once they found out, the high-end eateries and spas in her Congressional District weren’t big fans.”
On Fox News on Tuesday night, former Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty called the waivers as clear evidence of"crony politics or crony capitalism."
"If you've got the right connections, the right lobbyists, the right interest group, you get your special deal, and the rest of us get our wallet out, and that's in the tax code, it's in earmarking, and now you see it in ObamaCare," Pawlenty told Sean Hannity.
Newt Gingrich, who is still recovering from his seeming endorsement of the Obamacare insurance mandate, piled on as well. "This discretionary power wielded by unelected bureaucrats presents an enormous danger for corruption. Indeed, we have already seen how they can be abused," he wrote in a Wednesday morning newsletter for the conservative website Human Events.
But the San Francisco Business News and Pelosi’s defenders said that the waivers are so heavily concentrated in San Francisco not because of any political maneuvering but because of Healthy San Francisco.
Under Healthy San Francisco, all San Francisco businesses with over 20 employees must provide health care coverage or access to health care for its employees. Many employers opt to open a Health Reimbursement Account or HRA for its employees; those accounts are then used to reimburse employers for some health care costs.
The waivers that are granted for one-year periods are intended to protect employees from suffering any reduction in coverage because of suddenly increased premiums, and to limit how much employers need to pay in a given year for coverage.
“We have mandatory health care expenditures. We are the only place I know of in the country that has that,” said Rob Black, executive director of the Golden Gate Restaurant Association. “Because we have a 100 percent expenditure rate, we are going to have a much higher take-up rate (of waivers) than the country as a whole. That is what is driving that.”
But the very fact that companies and unions covering 3.1 million Americans need to request waivers of the requirements for a $750,000 level of coverage and comprehensive services including vision, dental, and other services when they currently provide lower levels of health insurance for their employees illuminates the central problem with the law, writes Stanley Goldfarb on the conservative FrumForum blog.
“Most small companies can’t afford to provide comprehensive fee for service, unmanaged health insurance to their employees,” Goldfarb pointed out. “If business can’t provide it now, the unaffordability of comprehensive insurance will be transferred to the taxpayers. Subsidies will be provided to the new insurance exchanges and we’ll have to borrow trillions of dollars more in the coming years to pay for it.
“If Obamacare succeeds in its essential goal of providing comprehensive health insurance to another 30 million people, companies will be foolish not to put their employees into the newly created plans. Certainly all the companies and organizations that have requested waivers will be doing exactly that. They can’t afford comprehensive insurance now and won’t be able to afford it in 2014.”
Once again, the burden will fall to American taxpayers.”

Posted on The Washington Post-By Bruce Ackerman and Oona Hathaway-On May 17, 2011:
“This week, the War Powers Act confronts its moment of truth. Friday will mark the 60th day since President Obama told Congress of his Libyan campaign. According to the act, that declaration started a 60-day clock: If Obama fails to obtain congressional support for his decision within this time limit, he has only one option — end American involvement within the following 30 days.
Obama has not only failed but he hasn’t even tried — leaving it to Sen. Richard Lugar, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, to call for a “specific resolution that would give [the president] authority.”
Neither the president nor the Democratic congressional leadership has shown any interest. They have been sleep-walking their way to Day 60.
Obama’s politics of silence contrast sharply with clear and consistent legal pronouncements of the executive branch.
Richard Nixon vetoed the act in 1973, precisely because it imposed restraints on presidential war-making. But two-thirds of both houses of Congress overrode his veto, and the presidency soon fell into line. Jimmy Carter’s Justice Department expressly affirmed the constitutionality of the 60-day clock in 1980 — and its verdict has not been challenged by executive-branch lawyers.
Obama has continued this tradition. His March 21 letter to Congress telling of the Libyan campaign stated that it was “consistent with the War Powers Resolution.” And his Justice Department issued an opinion that acknowledged the 60-day rule without questioning its constitutionality.
Why, then, hasn’t the president been pressing Congress to approve the war before the looming deadline? Because it’s easier to paper over the problem with new legal fictions pretending that the time limit doesn’t apply to this instance. By Friday, the administration’s legal team is likely to announce that the clock stopped ticking on April 1 — the date when NATO “took the lead” in the bombing campaign. Since NATO is running the show, the argument will go, the War Powers Act no longer applies, and the president doesn’t have to go back to Congress after all.
But American planes and drones continued their bombing long after the April turnover — and the drones are still flying over Libya. Since the cost of the mission is at three-quarters of a billion dollars and climbing, it is sheer fiction to suggest that we are no longer a vital player in NATO’s “Operation Unified Protector.”
This is especially so when an active-duty American officer remains at the top of NATO’s chain of command. As supreme allied commander, Adm. James Stavridis “leads all NATO military operations.”
While a Canadian air force general, Charles Bouchard, is in charge of the Libyan campaign, the buck doesn’t stop with him but with Stavridis, who also reports to the Pentagon as head of the U.S. European command. Even if American drones discontinue their operations before the deadline, an American admiral will still be in a position to call the shots.
This is no accident. NATO has been a key vehicle for American military interests since the 1950s. It would create a terrible precedent to pretend otherwise. Once Obama crosses the Rubicon, future presidents will simply cite Libya when they unilaterally commit America to far more ambitious NATO campaigns.
Make no mistake: Obama is breaking new ground, moving decisively beyond his predecessors. George W. Bush gained congressional approval for his wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Bill Clinton acted unilaterally when he committed American forces to NATO’s bombing campaign in Kosovo, but he persuaded Congress to approve special funding for his initiative within 60 days. And the entire operation ended on its 78th day.
In contrast, Congress has not granted special funds for Libya since the bombing began, and the campaign is likely to continue beyond the 30-day limit set for termination of all operations.
Since the House of Representatives is out of session this week, Congress can’t approve the operation before the Friday deadline. But under the expedited procedures specified by the act, speedy congressional approval is feasible next week.
If nothing happens, history will say that the War Powers Act was condemned to a quiet death by a president who had solemnly pledged, on the campaign trail, to put an end to indiscriminate war-making.

I'm going to make a long story short. I get emails from several Tea Party (TP) members, and emails from associated groups (Rainy Day Patriots). Most all, if not all, serve to bring the current administration negatizm to the attention of the recipient. Who at this time in the current administration are unaware of the hundreds of problems that face our citizens. Bottom line... no more complaints. We need a Presidentual candidate to support.
Who would this be? A person with a strong backbone; a positive degree of charisma; successful business person; a person that generates respect when he walks into a room; a person with no personal interests except to stand for, support and work toward changing the current circus inside the 'beltline' in Washington. I for one, am desperate to find, this person, and would fly to wherever to be a part of a process of choosing this person through the process of meeting, questioning, and evaluating such a person. I only wish this individual would willingly and seriously step up to the plate in order to forego a long drawn out search. Do we need a separate party to get our unified message across? Probably so, to week out political chronies (professional speaking) from continuing business as usual. I'm not young, and I want more than anything to get this country moving in a direction that represents the desires of the majority of the public.... if not for me.. for my younger family.
We have to quit complaining. We MUST find this person, begin to apply bumperstickers, yard signs, hold public forums, have a voter registration campaign... and do all it takes to get this person elected. Am I right?
Posted on National Review Online-By EUGENE KONTOROVICH-On May 18, 2011:
“The hostile nations surrounding Israel have sent thousands of men across its borders in a violation of the internationally recognized boundaries of the Jewish state. While Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called this influx an invasion, a variety of United Nations officials defended the infiltrators as innocent “demonstrators.” International law has a clear answer to the question who is right.
For this is not the first time in modern Middle Eastern affairs that an Arab autocracy has used massive marches of nominally civilian personnel to invade and undermine a neighboring state. In the past, such attempts have been denounced by the international community for what they are: a use of force against the territory of another state in violation of the U.N. Charter. International law is based on practical precedents, on the way given actions were legally judged by the world community in the past. It is a testament to the selective use of international law in the case of Israel that Morocco’s “Green March” into Western Sahara, by far the closest parallel to this week’s events, has not even been mentioned by world leaders.
In 1975, Spain appeared ready to pull out of much or all of Western Sahara, a large desert region between Mauritania and Morocco. Rabat hoped to annex the mineral-rich territory, but its claims of sovereignty were successively denied by a report of a U.N. fact-finding mission and an advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice, both of which favored self-determination for the region.
Morocco was not deterred. Right after being rebuffed by those international organs, it mounted the Green March — sending 350,000 unarmed Moroccans on a well-choreographed hike into Western Sahara. Spain was not willing to fight against such numbers, and evacuated the territory. The Moroccan military moved in, and the territory remains under Moroccan control to this day.
The press has taken to calling the Arabs marching across the Israeli frontier “protesters.” In fact, “protests” are contained within a country; the organized crossing of a frontier is an invasion. In 1975, when Western Sahara was the victim, the world community was clear on this point (even though the Moroccans were unarmed, while the Syrians and Lebanese attacked Israeli soldiers with stones and other objects). Other Arab leaders called the Green March “a violation of the sovereignty of” Western Sahara and “an act contrary to international law.” Prominent international scholars described it as an illegal use of force, a “stealing of the Sahara,” in the words of one of the leading international lawyers of the time. The U.N. Security Council passed a measure that “deplored” Morocco’s invasion.
Moreover, despite the nominally civilian character of the marchers, several U.N. General Assembly resolutions recognized that the enterprise constituted a military occupation by Morocco. Observers noted that the march could not have gone off without the permission, and indeed encouragement, of King Hassan of Morocco, and thus he must take responsibility as if he had ordered army units across the border. It was a conquest despite the lack of arms: A large organized mob can be as forceful as an armed military unit. Indeed, as the Spanish capitulation proved, a march could be a more effective tool of conquest than a military strike against Western armies reluctant to fire on civilians.
Perhaps world leaders today would rather not remind anyone of the Moroccan occupation of Western Sahara, which in many ways showcases how the international rules applied to Israel are not those that govern the rest of the world. Rabat has occupied Western Sahara almost as long as Israel has occupied the West Bank, and with much less legal pedigree. Yet international efforts to end Morocco’s occupation have been scant and half-hearted. The occupation has been effectively accepted since the “peace process” in the region collapsed in 2004, when Morocco rejected a peace plan endorsed by the Security Council, with no damage to its international relations. Moreover, Morocco has implemented a massive policy of government-orchestrated settlement of Western Sahara. Yet the failed U.N. peace proposals did not contemplate uprooting a single Moroccan settler. Indeed, in the Security Council’s failed plan, the settlers, who now outnumber the natives, would get to vote in a plebiscite on the territory’s future.
Many observers have suggested that infiltrations represent a powerful new Arab tool for influencing world opinion against Israel. Yet the march tactic is not civil disobedience: It is an attempt at foreign conquest by the Arab states, just as when Morocco did it. Netanyahu has filed an official complaint with the Security Council. The United States, a permanent member, should press for action on it. If that body wished to demonstrate its impartiality, it would condemn Israel’s invaders as surely as it did Western Sahara’s.

Posted on Bill Muehlenberg’s CultureWatch-On May 17, 2011:
“The uproar over religious education in schools is reaching fever pitch, with all the usual suspects (the ABC, the Age, etc.) going ballistic as they whip up hysteria about this matter. Indeed, it is just like the witch hunts of old, with all kinds of panic mongering and gloom and doom-ism.
The old chestnut about church and state separation is of course being thrown around here, with all the usual muddled thinking surrounding it. As if schools and education can ever be completely neutral and value-free. Such a condition does not exist. All knowledge, all education, and all learning is impacted by one’s worldview, by one’s values, and by one’s belief systems.
And it so happens today that the number one belief system being promulgated in our schools today is secular humanism. Indeed, it is the default position, and it is being force-fed to our children every single day of their lives. This in fact is the religion of modern education.
A religion did you say? You heard me right bub. Not only did the US Supreme Court declare secular humanism to be a religion, but plenty of the early secular humanists quite proudly proclaimed the religious nature of their belief system.
Only later, when they realised that they too could get booted out of schools because of the bogus “separation of church and state” nonsense, did they stop admitting to their religious basis. I have written before about this, offering a number of quotes along the way:
http://www.billmuehlenberg.com/2007/05/22/secular-religion/
This is such an important issue that one American expert, David Noebel, has written an entire book documenting all this. Entitled Clergy in the Classroom: The Religion of Secular Humanism (3rd ed., Summit Books, 2007), this revealing volume offers 63 different pieces of information to verify this thesis.
Let me cite just one of his pieces of evidence. Back in 1983 John Dunphy wrote an article for The Humanist, entitled“A New Religion for a New Age.” The title already gives the game away, but he went on to say this:
“…the battle for mankind’s future must be waged and won in the public school classroom by teachers who correctly perceive their role as the proselytizers of a new faith: a religion of humanity. . . . These teachers must embody the same selfless dedication as the most rabid fundamentalist preachers, for they will be ministers of another sort, utilizing the classroom instead of a pulpit to convey humanist values in whatever subject they teach, regardless of the educational level – preschool, day care center or large state university. The classroom must and will become an arena of conflict between the old and the new – the rotting corpse of Christianity, together with all its adjacent evils and misery, and the new faith of humanism.”
This is as good an admission as any of the reigning religion in our schools. No wonder the secular humanists are doing all they can to banish every last trace of Christianity in the education realm. They know it is a competing worldview, and one which directly challenges their own premises.
And of course besides this obvious point about there being no such thing as neutrality in the classroom, these secular jihadists are simply making a mountain out of a molehill here. There is no one holding a gun to the heads of the students, forcing them to take a CRE class, or visit a school chaplain.
Any concerned parent can simply say that they do not want their children taking part, and that is the end of the matter. But according to the secular witch hunters, this is the worst thing which possibly be occurring in our schools. However, as Nicholas Tuohy has rightly noted, this is far from the case:
“Are there not more pressing needs to protect our children from? A recent conference in Melbourne was held concerning the increasingly disturbing sexual portrayal of children in the media. In relation to the findings of a 2010 survey by the Advertising Standards Bureau, Melinda Tankard Reist said ‘the proliferation of ads sexualising children showed self-regulation was failing.’ What about the increasingly violent video games and movies that children are regularly exposed to, not to mention hard-core pornography that is now only a click away? Then there is the epidemic of childhood obesity. With significant challenges and threats like these, it defies imagination that The Age and the crusading humanists take up arms against ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Blessed are the poor’.
He continues, “I think Australians are largely fearful of religion. That’s why no one talks about it and media campaigns like The Age are always trying to sideline religion or make it out to be some sinister and suspicious practice we need to protect our children from. Like it or not, our very education system comes out of the Christian heritage of Western nations. Great learning institutions like Oxford were started by very Christian people. It is absurd to say that Christian faith is some threat to kids. Even the most vituperative critics of Christianity, Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, have recently expressed praise for the role the King James Bible had on literature and Western culture.”
And spare us the furphy about proselytising: “Everyone does it. Football teams, soft drink companies, fast food joints, and newspapers. That is, If we believe we have a ‘product’ that is worthwhile we will want to share it and promote it. The gaming and alcohol industries spend hundreds of millions a year to get people to buy their products, and everyone is fine with this? Get a few well-meaning and good Christian people telling kids that God loves them, to do unto others as you would have them do to you, telling the story of the Good Samaritan and The Age sees fit to launch a witch-hunt against Christians? I know first-hand that CRE and chaplaincy goes to great lengths to offer no-strings services and does not attempt to ‘convert’ children.”
The truth is, this is just another secularist beat-up, aided and abetted by a leftwing secular media. They are just as much fightin’ fundies as any Christians can be. And it is clear that they are not at all averse from going on their own witch hunts and conducting their own secular Inquisitions.
The secular jihadists are clearly alive and well.”

“A new poll commissioned by The National WWII Museum reveals the nation is in danger of forgetting the real meaning of Memorial Day. Fully 80 percent of all Americans confess to having “little,” or only “some” knowledge of the military holiday. Just 20 percent of respondents claim to be “very familiar” with the day and its purpose.
Memorial Day is a federal holiday honoring those who have died in military service. Begun to remember Civil War warriors, the remembrance grew to encompass all Americans who have died in all of the nation’s wars. The day is observed annually on the last Monday of May and is traditionally viewed as the official start of the summer.
“Our poll is very revealing,” said The National WWII Museum President and CEO Gordon H. “Nick” Mueller. “More than 416,800 American servicemen and women died in World War II. Today, with Americans fighting in Afghanistan, a time to honor those who give their lives for their country has never been more urgent. Unfortunately, few of us really know the full importance of Memorial Day. As a nation we’re in danger of forgetting the day’s meaning altogether.”
To help educate all Americans on Memorial Day’s importance, The National WWII Museum is launching a number of initiatives, including a new website – www.mymemorialday.org, which offers 10 things anyone can do to share and commemorate the holiday.
The Museum’s Memorial Day suggestions include:
- Thanking a veteran
- Placing an American flag on the grave of a veteran
- Visiting a military museum or historic military site
- Writing a veteran and thanking them for their services to the nation
- Organizing a community-wide observance
- Honoring a veteran with a brick at The National WWII Museum
- Changing their Facebook profile to an American flag
- Writing a letter to the editor of a local newspaper to remind their community about Memorial Day’s significance.”

Posted on Americans for Legal Immigration PAC-By William Gheen-On May 18, 2011:
“Those of us who have studied the nation’s crushing effects and causes of illegal immigration for sometime have become acutely aware of the driving forces facilitating the invasion of the United States of America.
Millions of illegal aliens have not landed in the United States via random acts or the chaotic consequences of market forces. This invasion of the American homeland and mockery of constitutional governance driven by American citizens is being funded, planned, assisted, and facilitated by well financed global power players.
Banks, global corporations, despotic billionaires like George Soros, cryptic organizations like the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), and an army of their minions are pushing for the integration of North America and the disintegration of the United States!
The most recent information to come to light regarding these plans has come in the form of secret documents released by the notorious WikiLeaks organization.
WikiLeaks is an international nonprofit organization directed by the currently jailed Australian Internet activist Julian Assange. Many of you have heard of the group in the American press in regards to the issue of released documents related to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
These new secret documents appear to confirm an incremental and covert plan within the highest levels of the American and Canadian governments to accomplish deeper “North American Integration,” while keeping most average citizens in the dark and bypassing the constitutions of the existing three sovereign nations of America, Canada, and Mexico.
WikiLeaks released these documents on April 28, 2011, and news of these shocking findings is just now reaching the public via patriotic groups and the news media. This game changing document is a secret 2005 U.S. Embassy cable from Ottawa signed by then-Ambassador Paul Cellucci.
Paul Cellucci is a former Republican Governor of Massachusetts and a big supporter of illegal alien Amnesty proponent AZ Senator John McCain!
In the secret document, US Ambassador Paul Cellucci expounds upon a well researched and refined plan to mostly replace the existing borders of sovereign nations with some kind of privacy-invading biometric “security perimeter,” where the borders of the nations will still stand, but information will be exchanged on all citizens in the nations, thus creating a super state law enforcement effort to manage security.
The document specifically states that Cellucci and his fellow conspirators fear the US could wake up and secure the borders against contagious diseases and terrorism. He points out that financial interests in Canada fear US attempts to protect citizens from terrorism or pandemics and could interfere with some financial interests in Canada.
“Even with zero tariffs, our land borders have strong commercial effects. Some of these effects are positive (such as law enforcement and data gathering), so our governments may always want to keep some kind of land border in place... The risk that business will be obstructed at the border by discretionary U.S. actions, such as measures to defend against terrorism or infectious disease, in addition to growing congestion, have become major risks to the economy, inhibiting investment in Canada,” the document reads.
Here we have a man who has sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America and the people who pay his exorbitant salary and expenses with their hard earned taxes and who is taking the side of financial interests that cannot be bothered by dead Americans killed by Mexican Flu pandemics and other diseases, rampaging armies of illegal alien marauders, or the lethal terrorists among them.
The secret document also advocates that this North American Integration (NAI) will transform sovereign nations into a “single market” with some form of “monetary union.”
Of course, by “single market” they mean single labor market, which means that all the labor they want from other nations can be brought into Canada, Mexico, and America without hindrance from existing laws, constitutions, or pesky existing American citizens who are being systematically conquered and vanquished piecemeal from their jobs and homes.
The document is very clear about moving slowly and incrementally and not attempting to arouse public suspicions by making a big move all at once.
This document is consistent with the North American Community plans we have documented that are coming out of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and Dr. Robert Pastor of American University, as well as other proillegal alien amnesty and open borders groups.
Some Americans who are new to these issues may be asking what this has to do with the topic of illegal immigration?
The non-enforcement of America’s existing constitution and federal immigration laws is facilitating this North American Integration, North American Community, North American Union plan.
Unlike the European Union, American citizens are not being asked if they want to lose their sovereignty and self-governance; we are not being asked to vote on this or ratify this!
While the passage of unwise trade agreements like NAFTA and CAFTA have accelerated us down this path to national disintegration, for the most part the Congress is not being asked to ratify these nation-eroding agreements.
By not adequately enforcing America’s existing immigration and border laws, and by assisting millions of illegal aliens with everything from credit cards to bilingual voice systems demanding we “press one for English,” an invading economic army has been brought to Americans’ doorsteps.
While we have documented that illegal aliens are already voting in mass numbers in probably every state, the populist political uprising of Americans, partially reflected in the Tea Party movement, was stalled west of the Mississippi in the 2010 elections where the largest illegal alien populations resided, yet no investigations or charges are being pursued.
If the plans to make illegal aliens new legal voters via the Dream Act or Comprehensive Amnesty become reality, then the North American Integration has been accomplished and any political resistance by American patriots will be overridden by the new illegal alien voting block.
The political voices of once free Americans will be silenced by the new illegal alien voting block of over 12 million invaders, who were promised our jobs and lands. and power over us and our descendants, in return for their services of overthrowing the American Republic. Their relatives and friends back in their home nations will soon be joining them in this endeavor.
Many of us who first warned America about these issues after US President Bush, Mexican President Fox, and Canadian Prime Minister Martin announced the Security And Prosperity Partnership (SPP) in 2005 to create a “free flow of people, goods, and services” across our borders have been ridiculed by liberal media character assassins. We created the term North American Union to convey a lot of meaning to our fellow Americans quickly.
Even now, if you look at Wikipedia, you will see claims that such concerns about this kind of North American Initiative, Union, Integration, or whatever are the mad rantings of “conspiracy theorists.”
Yet, here are leaked documents from a US ambassador advocating this very idea and speaking of it in a way which makes it clear he is not alone and that such plans were already well under way by 2005!
Their eventual goals are to have everyone in North America governed by a new continental government, which would completely supersede what is left of the existing American government.
A recent book called “The Right Balance” written by Canadian Senator Hugh Segal, who is the Canadian equivalent of a Republican, advocates openly for Canadians to understand and accept a “North American Community.” This mouthpiece of the traitors says, “A continent-wide commitment to economic and social development, through which models such as Canada’s equalization program could be applied elsewhere... The creation of a North American Assembly, similar to the European Parliament in its early days” is needed.
Hugh Segal reveals more of their plans which are afoot in Canada, where freedom of speech among regular citizens has been highly compromised by political correctness tribunals, of which I would have been fined or jailed a long time back. Segal calls for “the creation of a North American Assembly, similar to the European Parliament in its early days.”This sounds exactly like the student government triumvirate mock assembly we caught the elites staging in Mexico a few years back, where one student was assigned to impersonate “William Gheen of Americans for Legal Immigration”during the exercise!
These nation-stealing, treasonous conspirators are quite aware that millions of Americans will not accept the news that the divinely inspired experiment in self governance earned by George Washington, Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and many others has been stolen from us.
They are quite aware that in the final steps of this effort to enslave Americans, many Americans will try their best to use their 1st and 2nd Amendment rights to preserve and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; that is likely why all of these recent Homeland Security documents going out to police across America demonize American Patriot defenders as “violent extremists.”
American citizens loyal to the US Constitution are not currently extremists, but those perpetrating this North American Integration plan are expecting Americans to become violent eventually in reaction to their plan. This would explain their preparations.
The most recent release from the White House was part of an agreement crafted in secret as well to create this so called“perimeter,” and instead of identifying terrorists as Islamic extremists, invading illegal immigrants, or forces from outside of America or Canada who might attack, it reads, “We intend to cooperate to identify, prevent, and counter violent extremism in our two countries. By working cooperatively on research, sharing best practices, and emphasizing community-based and community-driven efforts, we will have a better understanding of this threat and an increased ability to address it effectively.”
Those who conspire to move secretly and incrementally against us and our revered US Constitution are called enemies, and it is becoming clear that many of the enemies of the people of America now hold high level positions in the government that our life energy and taxes sustain.
Illegal immigration must be stopped and reversed using humane, peaceful, and political processes via the simple adequate enforcement of America’s existing immigration and border laws.
These treasonous politicians, financial and business leaders, academics, and bureaucrats currently pushing for the disintegration of America and the reformation of a new United States of North America, must be identified, stopped, and thrown down from their positions of power or influence, and held accountable for the massive amount of death, loss, and suffering they are inflicting upon innocent American citizens with their elitist plans.
We must stop them because we are Americans. We are the only ones on the planet who have fought this kind of battle before and won. Please remember that America’s founders did not just take on the English government. They took on a king, a church, and one of the world’s first global corporations and with God’s grace prevailed!
The hour is late and our chances look as daunting as when George Washington knelt on his knees in prayer upon the snow-covered ground at Valley Forge.
The new American political revolution that began in 2010 must grow and intensify and we Americans who are still loyal to the principles and the Constitution that once made America the greatest nation on earth must organize in greater numbers.
These secret documents found by WikiLeaks confirm that we have traitors among us that seek the disintegration of America for the creation of a new more regional and global governance. Let us work and pray together to overcome their politics of division and rally our countrymen and women to the American cause once again.
May God save the United States!”

Thorium as a nuclear fuel
Thorium, as well as uranium and plutonium, can be used as fuel in a nuclear reactor. A thorium fuel cycle offers several potential advantages over a uranium fuel cycle including much greater abundance on Earth, superior physical and nuclear properties of the fuel, enhanced proliferation resistance, and reduced nuclear waste production.[14] Nobel laureate Carlo Rubbia at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), has worked on developing the use of thorium as a cheap, clean and safe alternative to uranium in reactors. Rubbia states that a tonne of thorium can produce as much energy as 200 tonnes of uranium, or 3,500,000 tonnes of coal.[15][16] One of the early pioneers of the technology was U.S. physicist Alvin Weinberg at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee, who helped develop a working nuclear plant using liquid fuel in the 1960s.
In 1997 the U.S. Energy Department underwrote research into thorium fuel, and research was also begun in 1996 by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), to study the use of thorium reactors. Nuclear scientist, Alvin Radkowsky, of Tel Aviv University in Israel, founded a consortium to develop thorium reactors, which included other companies: Raytheon Nuclear Inc., Brookhaven National Laboratory, and the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow.[17] Radkowsky was chief scientist in the U.S. nuclear submarine program directed by Admiral Hyman Rickover and later headed the design team which built the world's first civilian nuclear power plant at Shippingport, Pennsylvania, which was a scaled-up version of the first naval reactor.[17]
Some countries, including India, are now investing in research to build thorium-based nuclear reactors. Anil Kakodkar, chairman of the Indian Atomic Energy Commission, said in 2009 that his country has a "long-term objective goal of becoming energy-independent based on its vast thorium resources."[18][19] In May 2010, researchers from Ben-Gurion University in Israel and Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York, received a grant to develop a thorium-based, self-sustaining light water reactor[20] that will produce and consume about the same amounts of fuel.[20] In the U.S., NASA scientist and thorium expert Kirk Sorensen calls it the "next giant leap" in energy technology, noting that the "potential energy in thorium is staggering," explaining how just 8 tablespoons of thorium could provide the energy used by an American during his or her lifetime.[21][22]

The Most High, the title that depicts God as the sovereign ruler of the world enthroned high above his dominion, gave the nations their inheritance.
He alone sets the boundaries of the peoples of the world for His purpose. From one man he made every nation of men that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.
God is the final authority! He is the creator of all things. Because He sent His Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins, we have Life and the Liberty to choose the course we will pursue seeking Happiness in our lives. Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented.
The United States of America is here for a purpose. We are to show the world as our forefathers did that “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.”
This sculpture of Moses holding the Ten Commandments reigns over the Supreme Court building. It symbolizes that the basis of our legal system is the Judeo-Christian values found in the Bible, both the Hebrew and Christian Bible. Christians who founded America saw themselves as heirs to the Hebrew Bible using the Ten Commandments and its moral standards as the basis of the laws serving as a guide for the behavior of a secular society, but recognizing the need for the Christian Bible and the acceptance of Jesus Christ to provide the moral guidance for individuals to live in harmony. Thus, the Holy Spirit is the true guiding light of the American culture sustaining our belief in universal, not relative, morality. God is part of our culture. We believe that every individual and America as a nation must answer morally to this God.
Without teaching our heirs the Christian Religion as the basis of the founding of our country we could never expect this experiment in the republican form of government to succeed, for without internal moral guidance the desire for pleasure becomes the controlling influence of individual behavior. We have the freedom and ability to vote for our legislature and leaders. This offers the opportunity for the elected officials to buy votes catering to this desire for pleasure.
The result as we see today is anarchy. A few corrupt powerful legislators are extending an unwarrantable jurisdiction over the rest of the nation. The passage of laws providing benefits to specific groups of people and judicial interpretation of legal issues based on precedence without returning to the constraints of the Constitution result in unequal treatment for individuals which is not acceptable. All laws passed by the legislature should apply equally to all citizens of the United States of America and the Constitution is the standard by which those laws are used to settle disputes in the courts of law. No single judge or panel of judges has the right to change the Constitution or amendments thereto based on precedence.
I accept your beliefs as individuals, and will not question why you have them, as in matters of conscience all men are free. All I ask is that you accept mine, and live in harmony. We are allowed every opportunity to enjoy the freedom and all this country has to offer. As a Christian Nation this is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE and of Right we expect immigrants to assimilate into our culture and visitors to respect our laws, beliefs, and values.
ENGLISH is the language mainly spoken here. If you wish to become part of our society learn the language, do not expect us to accept the everyday use of a foreign language which will divide our culture.
We are one nation under God with Liberty and Justice for all. We recognize that God is in control of everything. We believe in a judging, loving and forgiving God who holds every individual accountable for their own thoughts and actions. We are not a society ruled by the clergy or any established national religion but we are a nation in crisis as Secular Humanism is being forced upon us.
"When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is composed of two characters.
One represents danger and the other represents opportunity."
President John F. Kennedy, speech to United Negro College Fund, Indianapolis, Ind., April 12, 1959
Some might say we have reached a "crucial point" in our decision making process and they would be correct as well for in either case change will occur. Appeasement is the failure to take action in the face of fear; leadership is the ability to provide a vision for what needs to be accomplished and to take action to achieve it.
We are the generation of his future to arrive at the point feared by a founder of the Harvard Law School Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story, who wondered if we could survive as a nation if we did not “teach our children about religion and morality as restraints upon the liberal sensual desires of freemen”.
As a nation we have not established our national identity and communicated it to the world or even our own children. As a result we have lost the character, the vision and the Spirit that brought 13 states in the wild frontier to the leadership position of the world. Our God given freedoms are being taken from us.
Freedom is a wonderful thing, but it does not come free. We must “Take Action” to protect the Freedom we enjoy.
God Save the USA!
Listen to Murray's song by the same name. His paintings are awesome! Please take a moment and watch and pray for our nation without ceasing.
I love God! I love my country. It is time for the people of America to stand up and be counted as a Christian nation before we loose the rights that God has so richly blessed us with. Who will stand with me and "TAKE ACTION" to save our country?
