Posted on by Jim

FIRST AMENDMENT LOST DEPT. Sometimes we tend to throw out the baby with the wash water. In this article, Glenn Greenwald correctly warns that a federal prosecution of Julian Assange will become the new weapon of choice in this administrations continuing battle against whistleblowers, those who try to inform the public of the excesses and wrongdoing of Government. Learn from history or continue to repeat it. Jim A reminder about WikiLeaks As the risk intensifies that Assange may be prosecuted for his journalism, it is vital to remember what's at stake By Glenn Greenwald Salon.com May 31, 2012   “Just in time to spoil the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the publication of the Pentagon Papers, ...

ONE NATION UNDER SURVEILLANCE

Posted on by Jim

HERE’S LOOKING AT YOU DEPT. Apparently spy satellites are not enough. Now “free” Americans must suffer cameras, RFID chip readers and facial-recognition software on every street corner and highway, not to mention the 30,000 armed pilotless drones soon to be hovering overhead. Is this the America you grew up in? Is this the America you want for your children and grandchildren. Act now or accept your role as an indistinguishable member of Big Brother’s Orwellian New World Order. Jim  ONE NATION UNDER SURVEILLANCE   By Chuck Baldwin NewsWithViews.com May 31, 2012 America prides itself in being called "the land of the free." But, what, exactly, does it mean to be free? Does it mean owning a ...

FRANKENFOOD BY ANY OTHER NAME DEPT. What’s in a name? When it comes to consumable products, packaging should list all known ingredients so that consumers can judiciously choose what to put into their bodies. But the Big Question is this – if Monsanto and other gene modifiers are really proud of their products which they claim are perfectly safe, why are they spending so much money to keep from placing truthful labels on them? Jim Meet the Corporate Front Groups Fighting to Make Sure You Can't Know What's in Your Food By Alexis Baden-Mayer and Ronnie Cummins AlterNet.org May 31, 2012 What do a former mouthpiece for tobacco and big oil, a corporate-interest PR flack, ...

ANOTHER PHONY UNDERWEAR BOMBER PLOT

Posted on by Jim

MORE GOVERNMENT LIES DEPT. Remember the old line “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me?” George W. Bush couldn’t remember this admonishment, but all Americans should. Below World Affairs Brief editor Joel Skousen dissects the latest in government-sponsored false-flag events. Based on my independent research, I wholeheartedly agree with his assessment. How long will we tolerate such devious and freedom-destroying activities by our Government, which is supposedly there to serve and protect us?

WHO SAYS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA IS CONTROLLED DEPT. If you ever wanted proof that the mainstream corporate mass media is under total control, just watch this short video about the Ron Paul Revolution. Then ask yourself, where are all the massive rallies like this for Mitt Romney? They are not there.

If you want to restore the American Republic, vote for Ron Paul and work to get him elected. If you want the graft, corruption, lies and wars to stay the same, then ...

A Policeman’s Lot

Posted on by Jim

WHERE’S A GOOD COP WHEN YOU NEED ONE? DEPT. Having ridden with the police for more than a dozen years, I am one who understands that police work is tough and generally thankless, but also one of the most helpful and necessary professions in our society. But recently, thanks to declining standards and federal intrusions, police departments are becoming worrisome. There have always been problems with the police outlook of “you are either with us or against us.” But today it’s gotten worse. Now it seems to be “I’m the good guy and you are the bad guy until proven otherwise.” They also seem to have forgotten who pays their salary. ...

Terrorist Plots, Hatched by the F.B.I.

Posted on by Jim

I TOLD YOU SO DEPT. What?! The much vaunted FBI is behind recent terrorist attacks?! Now even the normally staid and Establishment New York Times finally is admitting that most of the terrorist attacks we have heard about are the result of FBI informants (usually criminal hoping for leniency or pay)or undercover agents. Faithful readers might recall that I tried to tell everyone this long ago but when the Times admits it, it is no longer the preserve of conspiracy theorists. So, just remember when you pay your taxes and the TSA puts their hands down your pants, it is your own government that is the greatest terrorist. im Terrorist Plots, Hatched by ...
