Seems our president is backing away from a whole bunch of ideas ( re-election moves) Now he's declaring we go to a smaller leaner government after expanding/ borrowing (oh it doesn't matter anyways) 6.2 trillion (lol) dollars more than all the presidents combined since george washington. Money isn't real anymore, the only false value anymore is what politicians define as value . Bond markets , credit default swaps ect. Like a merry go round. Maybe publicly the statement is no monitoring but ................................. just live your life and watch the sideshow from the side. It's going to be a very interesting chess match in the future .

Through the grapevine, allegedly it was the pressure of the Glider community that is behind this & not people power. The community (hackers/coders) have been fighting this all the way via the law system & putting in place measures via various devices to counteract any attempts made by [whomever] to take control & police the Internet. Sir Tim Berners-Lee the daddy of the www warned [whomever] around 2008 that the Internet is set up in such a way that any attempts by [whomever] to put censorship restrictions in place would be short lived. The likes of Richard Stallman (rms) & Michael L. Love are just another two high profile hackers/coders have been fighting this.

Obama said approximately the same thing about NDAA and then signed it into law. We will see where he goes with it if the congress and senate pass it. The show is not over until the fat lady sings. IMHO

His only true agenda beyond making it work for everybody was the institution of universal health care. As the only western civilized nation in the world without it and any and all statistics regarding quality of care indicating failure in the U.S., why would anybody fight it?

I can't tell for sure if you're being sarcastic or sincere, but it appears sincere so allow me to say (though this is off-topic to SOPA) The healthcare legislation that passed in the US was strong legislation protecting medical insurance companies and big pharma - not "universal health care" legislation. Calling it universal health care legislation is true Orwellian doublespeak.
This is not just my opinion, or that of casual bloggers, or someone with an ax to grind against Obama. I personally communicated with 2 of the principle activist/organizers behind Mad As Hell Doctors (http://madashelldoctors.com/), and although I did not read the entire Act (I don't know *anyone* that read the whole 1928 pages and would bet big money not one single Congressperson read the whole thing) I did read a synopsis and did research it. This was a huge, stinky pile of collusion, written by medical insurance lobbyists, and was celebrated as a great victory by medical insurers - not a bill protecting citizen heathcare rights. For those who skimmed the surface or listened to mainstream media*, it appeared that Obama and the Dems were champions of the people who were fighting a battle against republicans.
I can't think of any way to gracefully segue back to SOPA from this tangent. Perhaps we can say, the thought of SOPA passing made us sick, and we feel a little better now, after reading the White House statement (and we await the final verse from the fat lady.)
Dennis
*note that in David Wilcock's 3rd installment of the big financial swindle and the web of collusion, he notes that mainstream media corporations invested heavily in (or "cross-invested" might be a better term - they are in bed together) big pharma and the big medical insurance cabal. So, no wonder they were willing and able disinfo agents.

G'day All,
The article link (http://news360.com/#article/39511583?cluster=16912736&category=1&dummy=1326685281558) in the OP is not working.
Here (http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/01/14/us-usa-internet-whitehouse-idUSTRE80D0Q520120114) is the original Reuters article.
Interesting site that has more information:
https://www.eff.org
The legislation in question:
http://judiciary.house.gov/hearings/pdf/112%20HR%203261.pdf
For those who might like a bit of background in this mongrel legislation I started a thread (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?33535-Say-NO-to-ACTA) at the end of October that mentioned ACTA, IP-Protect (renamed the 'E-PARASITE Act'), SOPA, TRIPS and the TPP Agreement but (not surprisingly) it received little interest.
I don't read that the Reuter's article is saying that SOPA will not be enacted.
It seems more like a "testing of the waters" by the various interest groups and the US Government to see if there was much interest in the "public domain" regards these issues.
It is important to note that it was posted on some White House Officials blogs, not as official policy.
The legislation is still there, it hasn't been cancelled.
Obama has not stopped anything. His officials are using blog posts as a litmus test, that's all.
I agree with Bryn ap Gwilym that many people are fighting this and are concerned at its direction.
In my opinion censorship must always be fought against.

Hi Dennis,
yes, you are correct but I can assure you that was not Obama's intent...it would have been pointless. Therein lies the real view of politics and how they are played in the big leagues. It's obviously not a game for the fainthearted.
Incidentally, I did read the whole bill and most of what 'we' heard regarding it was complete fabrication...Again, perpetrated by 'conservative' interests and most of the sheeples bought it.
adding, there was more than one bill and versions, I read the final House and Senate versions. The house version was only a fraction of the senate's size.
And the battle rages on...

And Rupert Murdock loses his cool over it. Funny.
http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/01/rupert-murdochs-sopa-twitter-rant.html
Rupert Murdoch exploded last night after news that the Obama White House was coming out against two online anti-piracy bills near and dear to the hearts and financial interests of major media companies like News Corp. "Obama has thrown in his lot with Silicon Valley paymasters who threaten all software creators with piracy," Murdoch declared. The White House's top technology officers sort of agree with Rupert, saying that "online piracy is a real problem that harms the American economy, threatens jobs for significant numbers of middle class workers and hurts some of our nation's most creative and innovative companies and entrepreneurs." But many opponents of SOPA and PIPA claim that the bills would limit the freedom of expression. Google and Twitter have even reminded lawmakers that the bills take the same approach used by the China and Iran to censor their citizens' Internet access. The White House agrees: Proposed laws must not tamper with the technical architecture of the Internet through manipulation of the Domain Name System (DNS), a foundation of Internet security. [...] We must avoid legislation that drives users to dangerous, unreliable DNS servers and puts next-generation security policies, such as the deployment of DNSSEC, at risk. Already, the House bill's two co-sponsors have agreed to withdraw the DNS-blocking provision from SOPA, while several of the Senate bill's sponsors have asked Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell to delay a floor vote scheduled in less than two weeks, citing the barrage of calls and e-mails they've been getting from "a large number of constituents and other stakeholders with vocal concerns about possible unintended consequences of the proposed legislation." But not all supporters of the bills are taking these setbacks lying down. After the White House came out against the legislation, Murdoch took to Twitter (his favorite new toy, it seems) yesterday with a series of exasperated messages. 5:54 p.m. ET: Piracy leader is Google who streams movies free, sells advts around them. No wonder pouring millions into lobbying. 5:57 p.m. ET: Film making risky as hell. This has to lead to less, hurting writers, actors, all concerned. 10:25 p.m. ET: Just been to google search for mission impossible. Wow, several sites offering free links. I rest my case. Then again, Twitter may not have been the most sensible outlet for such sentiments, considering on which side of this fight the site and likely many of its users find themselves. Among the public responses Murdoch received were several with choice phrases like "walking embodiment of the old world" and "three words: make better films" and "searching google turned up no such links for me ... "

CNN Poll: Obama tied with Romney & Paul in November showdowns
Washington (CNN) – Mitt Romney is all tied up with President Barack Obama in a likely general election matchup, with the president showing signs of weakness on the economy and Romney seen as out of touch with ordinary Americans, according to a new national survey.
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2012/images/01/16/t1larg.obama.romney.paul.tri.jpg
And a CNN/ORC International Poll released Monday also indicates that Rep. Ron Paul of Texas is also even with Obama in another possible showdown this November. The survey also suggests the Republican advantage on voter enthusiasm is eroding, which could be crucial in a close contest.
See full results (pdf)
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2012/images/01/16/rel1bb.pdf
According to the survey, if the November election were held today and Romney were the Republican presidential nominee, 48% say they'd vote for the former Massachusetts governor, with 47% supporting the president. Romney's one point margin is well within the poll's sampling error.
The poll also indicates Paul statistically tied with Obama, with the president at 48% and the longtime congressman at 46%. But according to the poll, the president is doing better against two other Republican presidential candidates. If Rick Santorum were the GOP nominee, Obama would hold a 51%-45% advantage over the former senator from Pennsylvania. And if Newt Gingrich faced off against the president, Obama would lead the former House speaker 52%-43%.
Enthusiasm in voting in the presidential election this November now stands at 54% among registered Republicans, down ten points from last October. Meanwhile, enthusiasm among registered Democrats has risen six points, and now stands at 49%.
"In a race that tight, turnout is likely to determine the outcome, and the Democrats have begun to close the 'enthusiasm gap' that damaged their prospects so badly in the 2010 midterms," says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland.
While the Obama re-election campaign and the Democratic National Committee have all of the GOP White House hopefuls in their sights, they are directing most of their firepower towards Romney, and the poll indicates why that is the case.
According to the survey, both men are seen as strong leaders, and both are viewed as having the personal qualities that a president should have. Forty-eight percent of Americans say that Obama agrees with them on the issues they care about - not great, but better than the 43% who feel that way about Romney.
"But on the economy - issue number one to most Americans - Romney has a clear advantage. 53% say the former Massachusetts governor can get the economy moving; only 40% say that about President Barack Obama," says Holland. "But the numbers are reversed when voters are asked whether the candidates are in touch with ordinary Americans. Fifty-three percent say that Obama is in touch; only four in ten feel that way about Romney."
Obama and Romney are virtually tied on whether they are seen as strong and decisive leaders. The survey indicates that by a 61%-34% margin, Americans say Romney changes his position on the issues for political reasons. By a 56%-42% margin, the public feels the same way about the president.
The poll was conducted for CNN by ORC International from January 11-12, with 1,021 adult Americans, including 928 registered voters, conducted by telephone on January 11-12, 2012. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

I went over to Wikipedia to do some research last night I was redirected to get a hold of my Senators and Congressmen..............So I did............ And Maria Cantwells office replied this morning her is what she said......
Thank you for contacting me about the internet streaming of copyrighted material. I appreciate hearing from you on this issue.
On May 12, 2011, Senator Leahy (D-VT) introduced S. 968, the Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property (PROTECT IP) Act. While I am supportive of the goals of the bill, I am deeply concerned that the definitions and the means by which the legislation seeks to accomplish these goals will have unintended consequences and hurt innovation, job creation, and threaten online speech and security. On November 17, 2011, I signed a letter along with Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) objecting to the bill as it is currently written.
On December 17, 2011, Senator Wyden introduced the "Online Protection and Enforcement of Digital Trade" (OPEN) Act (S. 2029), of which I am an original co-sponsor. The bill has been referred to the Senate Finance Committee, where it is currently awaiting further review. The OPEN Act is a more effective approach to stopping foreign web sites that are found to be primarily and willfully used to infringe intellectual property rights. The OPEN Act builds on the existing legal framework used by the International Trade Commission for addressing unfair acts in the importation of articles into the United States, or in their sale for importation, or sale within the United States after importation.
Our trade laws have yet to catch up to deal with the global digital economy. The OPEN Act recognizes that the Internet has created new opportunities for foreign products to reach the U.S. market and that there is little difference between downloading a pirated movie from a foreign website and importing a counterfeit movie DVD from a foreign company. For those foreign web sites that are determined after an investigation to be primarily and willfully infringing, the International Trade Commission will issue a "Cease and Desist" order. The "Cease and Desist" order may also be served on financial intermediaries that provide services to that foreign web site, compelling financial payment processors and online advertising providers to cease doing business with the foreign site in question. This would cut off financial incentives for this illegal activity and deter these unfair imports from reaching the U.S. market.
The OPEN Act addresses the same challenges as the PROTECT IP Act, while protecting freedom of speech, innovation, and security on the Internet. The challenge of rogue web sites is one that many nation's face. The United State has always been seen as a leader on Internet issues. Laws we establish in the United States regarding the Internet are likely to be used as models around the world. And because the Internet is global in nature, it is important that we carefully consider how the laws and policies we adopt in this area may be received and translated by other countries.
Thank you again for contacting me to share your thoughts on this matter. You may also be interested in signing up for periodic updates for Washington State residents. If you are interested in subscribing to this update, please visit my website at http://cantwell.senate.gov. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future if I can be of further assistance.
Sincerely,
Maria Cantwell

In this make believe world we live in.
Could this just be another way to control the people.
For example.
Obama has a meeting with the person who 'proposed' the sopa bill. But the meeting was before the proposal and Obama asked him to propose the bill and get lots of congressmen to back the bill. Knowing full well that we the people would greatly oppose the bill of Sopa and pippa. Then Obama comes out and says no, we wont support it and will make sure it does not become law. Thus making Obama the hero again and winning votes in the next presidential election.
Or have I just turned into a cynical bastard.

Chris Hedges, one of my personal heros, has filed a law suit against Obama. Worth looking into... I personally am delighted that he is once again taking a stand for our freedoms.
From the Heart,
Wormhole
Attorneys Carl J. Mayer and Bruce I. Afran filed a complaint Friday in the Southern U.S. District Court in New York City on my behalf as a plaintiff against Barack Obama and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to challenge the legality of the Authorization for Use of Military Force as embedded in the latest version of the National Defense Authorization Act, signed by the president Dec. 31.
The act authorizes the military in Title X, Subtitle D, entitled “Counter-Terrorism,” for the first time in more than 200 years, to carry out domestic policing. With this bill, which will take effect March 3, the military can indefinitely detain without trial any U.S. citizen deemed to be a terrorist or an accessory to terrorism. And suspects can be shipped by the military to our offshore penal colony in Guantanamo Bay and kept there until “the end of hostilities.” It is a catastrophic blow to civil liberties.
I spent many years in countries where the military had the power to arrest and detain citizens without charge. I have been in some of these jails. I have friends and colleagues who have “disappeared” into military gulags. I know the consequences of granting sweeping and unrestricted policing power to the armed forces of any nation. And while my battle may be quixotic, it is one that has to be fought if we are to have any hope of pulling this country back from corporate fascism.
Section 1031 of the bill defines a “covered person”—one subject to detention—as “a person who was a part of or substantially supported al-Qaeda, the Taliban, or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners, including any person who has committed a belligerent act or has directly supported such hostilities in aid of such enemy forces.”
The bill, however, does not define the terms “substantially supported,” “directly supported” or “associated forces.”
I met regularly with leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza. I used to visit Palestine Liberation Organization leaders, including Yasser Arafat and Abu Jihad, in Tunis when they were branded international terrorists. I have spent time with the Revolutionary Guard in Iran and was in northern Iraq and southeastern Turkey with fighters from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. All these entities were or are labeled as terrorist organizations by the U.S. government. What would this bill have meant if it had been in place when I and other Americans traveled in the 1980s with armed units of the Sandinistas in Nicaragua or the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front guerrillas in El Salvador? What would it have meant for those of us who were with the southern insurgents during the civil war in Yemen or the rebels in the southern Sudan? I have had dinner more times than I can count with people whom this country brands as terrorists. But that does not make me one.
Once a group is deemed to be a terrorist organization, whether it is a Palestinian charity or an element of the Uighur independence movement, the military can under this bill pick up a U.S. citizen who supported charities associated with the group or unwittingly sent money or medical supplies to front groups. We have already seen the persecution and closure of Islamic charity organizations in the United States that supported the Palestinians. Now the members of these organizations can be treated like card-carrying “terrorists” and sent to Guantanamo.
But I suspect the real purpose of this bill is to thwart internal, domestic movements that threaten the corporate state. The definition of a terrorist is already so amorphous under the Patriot Act that there are probably a few million Americans who qualify to be investigated if not locked up. Consider the arcane criteria that can make you a suspect in our new military-corporate state. The Department of Justice considers you worth investigating if you are missing a few fingers, if you have weatherproof ammunition, if you own guns or if you have hoarded more than seven days of food in your house. Adding a few of the obstructionist tactics of the Occupy movement to this list would be a seamless process. On the whim of the military, a suspected “terrorist” who also happens to be a U.S. citizen can suffer extraordinary rendition—being kidnapped and then left to rot in one of our black sites “until the end of hostilities.” Since this is an endless war that will be a very long stay.
This demented “war on terror” is as undefined and vague as such a conflict is in any totalitarian state. Dissent is increasingly equated in this country with treason. Enemies supposedly lurk in every organization that does not chant the patriotic mantras provided to it by the state. And this bill feeds a mounting state paranoia. It expands our permanent war to every spot on the globe. It erases fundamental constitutional liberties. It means we can no longer use the word “democracy” to describe our political system.
The supine and gutless Democratic Party, which would have feigned outrage if George W. Bush had put this into law, appears willing, once again, to grant Obama a pass. But I won’t. What he has done is unforgivable, unconstitutional and exceedingly dangerous. The threat and reach of al-Qaida—which I spent a year covering for The New York Times in Europe and the Middle East—are marginal, despite the attacks of 9/11. The terrorist group poses no existential threat to the nation. It has been so disrupted and broken that it can barely function. Osama bin Laden was gunned down by commandos and his body dumped into the sea. Even the Pentagon says the organization is crippled. So why, a decade after the start of the so-called war on terror, do these draconian measures need to be implemented? Why do U.S. citizens now need to be specifically singled out for military detention and denial of due process when under the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force the president can apparently find the legal cover to serve as judge, jury and executioner to assassinate U.S. citizens, as he did in the killing of the cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen? Why is this bill necessary when the government routinely ignores our Fifth Amendment rights—“No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law”—as well as our First Amendment right of free speech? How much more power do they need to fight “terrorism”?
Fear is the psychological weapon of choice for totalitarian systems of power. Make the people afraid. Get them to surrender their rights in the name of national security. And then finish off the few who aren’t afraid enough. If this law is not revoked we will be no different from any sordid military dictatorship. Its implementation will be a huge leap forward for the corporate oligarchs who plan to continue to plunder the nation and use state and military security to cow the population into submission.
The oddest part of this legislation is that the FBI, the CIA, the director of national intelligence, the Pentagon and the attorney general didn’t support it. FBI Director Robert Mueller said he feared the bill would actually impede the bureau’s ability to investigate terrorism because it would be harder to win cooperation from suspects held by the military. “The possibility looms that we will lose opportunities to obtain cooperation from the persons in the past that we’ve been fairly successful in gaining,” he told Congress.
But it passed anyway. And I suspect it passed because the corporations, seeing the unrest in the streets, knowing that things are about to get much worse, worrying that the Occupy movement will expand, do not trust the police to protect them. They want to be able to call in the Army. And now they can.

Turn Over the Chessboard
by Diane Sare -- LaRouche National Candidates Slate
Have you succumbed to the stupid election game? Have you decided that even though you don’t really like anybody running, that you have to choose X because he’s better than Y? Don’t do it!!! These candidates, from Obama to the silly Republicans are a disaster, which our nation cannot afford. The reason we are in this mess is because YOU, the voter have been too willing to go along with a cast of candidates hand picked for you by the enemies of our republic.
If Obama were to be thrown out of office under Section IV of the 25th Amendment, that would turn over the chess board. And why shouldn’t he be impeached? His serious violations of the Constitution are many, and Professor Francis Boyle has even offered his legal advice free to any Congressman prepared to initiate impeachment proceedings.
So what’s the hold up? It’s the same hold up that causes YOU to keep contributing to either party, and voting for stupid candidates when they are all acting against your interests and the interests of the United States. Stop playing the game!
The LaRouche Slate is organizing a second American Revolution. We are running for US Congress, but we, with Lyndon LaRouche, must act for the Presidency. The work done by Ben Franklin and his younger collaborators to create the United States in the first place is a good model. They defeated the British Empire before they had a President. With the groundbreaking scientific work being done by our Basement Team, and LaRouche’s expertise on economy and statecraft, there is no crisis facing mankind that we could not solve, provided YOU decide to jump out of the cage of popular opinion, where you are thrown a few scraps that make you want to vomit, and work with us

My question is why is he suing Barack Obama? The bill, like all bills was written by congressmen. Why not sue them all? It just seems like an easy out to go after the head guy when it is quite easy to see who sponsored and wrote the bill.
Someone is also requiring him to come down to Georgia to prove that he is a citizen.
People keep ignoring this one idea.....if he is not a citizen, then the electoral college should be sued for fraud or at least sued for malfeasance.
You know, just how when a gas station operator is prosecuted when he sells cigarettes or liquor to a minor.
Just a couple of thoughts.

Actually, it's easier to sue one person then all of congress and the senate. Also, Obama is the one who signed his name on the bill and passed it when he promised publicly to veto it. He is responsible to read, overview, and decide if a bill has the best interests of the public at heart. The end of the line is the presidents veto.

It is indeed easier to sue one person, however that would still leave those who actually thought it up (and many other atrocious ideas) free to do it again, or something worse.

The problem is, voting is rigged and no one , not the american people have voted into office anyone since Bush Sr. If not further back. The Electronic Voting machines just made this worse. If there wasn't media manipulation, voting and poling fraud going on, the Ron Paul would be strongly on the road to being the next president, and be winning right now.

LOL, thanks for taking my little joke as it was intended. I haven't looked into the citizenship aspect of the President Elect. The reason why has two parts. First part is that I'm living in Canada and thus have been dealing with the issues of our government being usurped by Harper and his Bush/Corporate Elite BS. The second is that since Obama has been in office this long the damage is already done, if he is pulled out and shamed at this point... well what's the point. My thoughts on suing the Electoral College are that it would be great to dismantle it entirely. I think that it was an unconstitutional idea to begin with and should be dismantled. That would have to end by the Supreme Court ruling that the EC is in fact unconstitutional and must come to an end. I would like to see a law suit that created this possibility and would support its conception.
My hope and the desire of suing the President with concerns to the bill is to over turn this bill and create a safer place for Americans to live by preserving the rights of it's citizens. To keep our presidential office honest and accountable for it's actions. To quell the idea that it is OK for the President Elect to outright LIE to the citizens of the US and then do exactly the opposite. We've become so used to this that in many ways we have become emotionally defeated and feel hopeless to change... Hedges is doing a great service here.
Form the Heart,

Another Murder By Obama's Drones
January 26, 2012 • 8:51AM
On Saturday in Somalia, the U.S. fired missiles from a drone and killed the 27-year-old Lebanon-born, ex-British citizen, Bilal el-Berjawi. His wife had given birth 24 hours earlier, and the speculation is that the U.S. located him when his wife called to give him the news.
According to a column by Glenn Greenwald, "Roughly one year ago, El-Berjawi was stripped of his British citizenship, obtained when his family moved to that country when he was an infant, through the use of a 2006 British anti-Terrorism law — passed after the London subway bombing — that the current government is using with increasing frequency to strip alleged Terrorists with dual nationality of their British citizenship (while providing no explanation for that act). El-Berjawi's family vehemently denies that he is involved with Terrorism, but he was never able to appeal the decree against him for this reason:
"Berjawi is understood to have sought to appeal against the order, but lawyers representing his family were unable to take instructions from him amid concerns that any telephone contact could precipitate a drone attack. Obviously, those concerns were valid.
So, first the U.S. tries to assassinate people, then it causes legal rulings against them to be issued because the individuals, fearing for their life, are unable to defend themselves. Meanwhile, no explanation or evidence is provided for either the adverse government act or the assassination: it is simply secretly decreed and thus shall it be.
According to Greenwald, a Daily Beast report says that the Obama administration is finally going to break its silence on the Awlaki killing, but instead of handing over the memo justifying his extrajudicial assassination, they merely intend to send Attorney General Eric Holder out to make a major address on the administration's national-security record. Embedded in the speech will be a carefully worded but firm defense of the government's right to target U.S. citizens.
"An early draft of Holder's speech identified Awlaki by name, but in a concession to concerns from the intelligence community, all references to the American citizen were removed. As currently written, the speech makes no overt mention of the Awlaki operation, and reveals none of the intelligence the administration relied on in carrying out his killing.
"In other words, they're going to dispatch Eric Holder to assert that the U.S. Government has the power to target U.S. citizens for assassination by — CIA — drone, but will not even describe a single piece of evidence to justify the claim that Awlaki was guilty of anything."

Someone else should sue the supreme court for illegally appointing (which they legally can't do!) Bush back when he was made president, and also therefore throwing out every bill , tax break etc he signed while in office.
Personally Wormhole, I think everyone from the Governors straight through to the president should be dumped, and the system gutted and re-done. Non-Electronic Voting machines put in place and a sequestered pool of people for counting put in place under guard of Navy Seals to prevent fraud,intimidation or tampering, and a fair and legal 100% election race should be done. The media should not be allowed to run any kind of negative or attack adds. But, also forced to provide equal share of time to every perspective candidate. The debates should be done with the intent of informing the people about the qualifications, and any adds etc ran should be clearly informing the people of the qualifications of each candidate. Also a thoroughly independent team, prevented from being intimidated or 'taken out' or caused to be fraudulent should be hired to thoroughly investigate all potential presidents. If any illegal or unconstitutional acts have been committed they are dequalified and prevented from ever in the future running for presidential office. And, elections should be done on a meritocratic format and not autocratic.
Also to include a system of checks and balances to prevent fraud, and illegal behavior during elections. As there is also way to much intimidating of voters done. Plus canidates would have to be prevented and held accountable if found to be lying about anything. Or providing misleading information.
That's probably one of the hugest issues in the government, and society today. No one is held truly accountable for their actions.

Did anybody actually think he would show up? That would have given validation to the charges against him and that's the last thing he will do. I predict he will first ignore this completely, if it gets pushed he will dismiss it as crazy, if by some miracle he is forced to confront the issue he'll use every legal shenanigan he can to squash it. The one thing he WON'T do is treat is seriously.

Basically though in court if you don't show up it means or signifies that it's "Uncontested" and the one filing the suit automatically wins.
There is actual authentic documentation available on the internet that proves he's foreign born. That is traceable in the Keyan government records, etc.

I realize this may be very unpopular here, or not, I don't really know. BUt I like Obama. I think he's a good guy who has been forced to do some stuff he wouldn't otherwise do. I always get a very good vibe from him.
Things he does upset me, yes. I get furious with him. But when I see him, I always get a totally good feeling about him.
And to tell the truth I don't really care where he was born, although I believe he was born in Hawaii. But if he wasn't, so what? That's just something people who don't like him use against him. Why don't we hear anyone talking about George H.W. Bush, aka George Scherff, coming from Germany?
So, it's all personal, whether you like him or not. Me, I like him, and I think we'll find out he's been on our side all along.

I think EVERYONE "likes" Obama.. I used to be a die hard concervative & even fell for some of his 2008 adds; the very reason you like him is why I deeply distrust him (plus if you look at how he came into office in illinois your going to be dissapointed).
I think anyone who takes the time & does their own research (basicaly vetting him) they will find a picture other than what is offered... but most will not do this as what is offered is exactly what your experiencing & people don't want to challange that (for some reason, that warm fuzzy feeling reason ;) ).
is it a case of "better the devil you kno" ? no I don't think so,, this time people ACTUALLY like this guy! but start comparing him to JFK (a REAL democrat) & tell me what you think...
you'r right, it really is irrelivant where he was born, but what IS relivant is that he lied about it & as we are a Representative Republic (NOT DEMOCRACY) you HAVE to follow laws in a republic or the whole system starts to crumble... this is the issue at hand.

It is very relevant where he was born. The United States Constitution states that a president must be a naturally born US citizen. Under these rules even John McCain the last republican candidate was not eligible either. He was born in Panama.
What is alarming about this is that this issue can be used to get rid of the president at any point if somehow this story is true. If we have been lied to and he is not a naturally born US citizen then he should not be president and he should not be able to run in the next election. I do see what you are saying about his abilities to get things done because no one is letting him do anything he said he was going to do in the election. Here's comedian Bill Hicks talking about what happens to newly elected presidents (video contains adult language):

It's about upholding the Constitution, telling the truth and leading with integrity. Forging documents is fraud, and sticking your nose up at the judicial system undermines all that we hold sacred in this country.

DID, LOL, I hear you. The system was in fact set up to provide these check and balances. Our original constitution was a fine document. Nothing is perfect, yet the ideas that founded the states had good legs. We are under corporate control now. Capitalism can not run free as is. The dangerous reality of profit outweighing beneficial balance to the planet and it's inhabitants is obvious. The system is not inspired any longer to protect our environment or the people's rights but rather the rights to pillage more and to make money merely to make more money without conscious thought as to what mess is left behind or who it hurts. The entire government and it's fingers: FDA, Military Industrial, Reeducation programs, prison systems, etc. are all corrupted to provide protection to the corporate elite. Big business and Banks have run amok. Yes, I agree. They all need to be tossed and cleared out to allow in people without conflicting interests. It's a BAD idea when Monsanto execs are allowed to run the FDA, when presidents are groomed and chosen by Rockefeller's, when Presidents elect have large scale business interests in the Military and oil companies or the CIA... The people in the government should reflect the people at large in the country, as is, they do not. Our government is supposed to protect us and create a sustainable environment for a healthy economy.
In many ways this is our fault for not being diligent, and in other ways it is not our fault as this conspiracy to usurp the constitution was a plan set into action deliberately and with a smart set of rules: ie the take over of the media, food, fuel, and perception of "We the People". I could rant on about all this, but I'll save it for those that do not agree rather then those of us here with similar eyes. I'm preaching to the choir right now. It is so important that we fight for these changes to occur, and to do so NON VIOLENTLY. The PTB are trying to provoke people into rioting so that they can arrest and toss us all into prison without trial. They want people to raise arms so they will have an excuse to take them away forever. They are begging all of us to take a shot at them. I for one refuse to be bullied into a fight that is my right to resolve peacefully. We have a lot of power right now while we still have the internet. The entire world is watching the US and praying that there will be radical change, and peaceful change. If we loose the states entirely, the rest of the world will be in dire straights as the military arm will increase it's holdings under the guise of "democracy" and eventually rape the rest of the world. Why? Because they are mostly controlled by psychopaths.

What Happened At Obama-No-show Trial--Sworn Testimony Reveals Fake Social Security Number, Other Gaps
http://www.wnd.com/wp-content/themes/worldnet-theme/_/images/logo-special.jpg
Jerome R. Corsi
Friday, 27 January 2012
Georgia citizens today delivered sworn testimony to a court that Barack Obama is slam-dunk disqualified from having his name on the 2012 presidential ballot in the state, because his father never was a U.S. citizen, which prevents him from qualifying as a “natural-born citizen” as the U.S. Constitution requires for a president.
http://www.wnd.com/files/2012/01/ObamaMug-274x275.jpg
The historic hearing was the first time that a court has accepted arguments on the merits of the controversy over Obama’s status. His critics say he never met the constitutional requirements to occupy the Oval Office, and the states and Congress failed in their obligations to make sure only a qualified president is inaugurated. His supporters, meanwhile, argue he won the 2008 election and therefore was “vetted” by America.
Discover what the Constitution’s reference to “natural born citizen” means and whether Barack Obama qualifies, in the ebook version of “Where’s the REAL Birth Certificate?”
The hearing was before Judge Michael Malihi of the Georgia state Office of State Administrative Hearings. In Georgia, a state law requires “every candidate for federal” office who is certified by the state executive committees of a political party or who files a notice of candidacy “shall meet the constitutional and statutory qualifications for holding the office being sought.”
State law also grants the secretary of state and any “elector who is eligible to vote for a candidate” in the state the authority to raise a challenge to a candidate’s qualifications, the judge determined.
Citizens bringing the complaints include David Farrar, Leah Lax, Thomas Malaren and Laurie Roth, represented by California attorney Orly Taitz, who has handled numerous cases concerning Obama’s eligibility; David Weldon represented by attorney Van R. Irion of Liberty Legal Foundation; and Carl Swensson and Kevin Richard Powell, represented by J. Mark Hatfield. Cody Judy is raising a challenge because he also wants to be on the ballot.
Several of the attorneys introduced passages from Obama’s own writings that Barack Obama Sr. was his father. They then introduced evidence that the man never was a U.S. citizen, that he was a citizen of Kenya at the time of junior’s birth and was therefore a subject of the United Kingdom.
His father’s citizenship, they said, precludes him from serving as president, since the Founders required that officer to be a “natural-born citizen,” not just a “citizen.”

"Today (25 or 26th January 2012) I give thanks to God and the great state of Georgia which demonstrated that we are in some parts of our nation still a nation of laws and not men. Obama and his attorney thumbed their noses at the Georgia court and the entire judicial system and decided not to even show up at the court hearing in Atlanta GA today to present evidence and the real 3-dimensional identity documents requested and subpoenaed, not merely digital images on the internet. Obama thinks he is a King and thus not subject to the election laws of Georgia and the United States Constitution. He will soon learn otherwise. As the Georgia Secretary of State said in warning Obama and his attorney if they did not show up for the court hearing today … if they do that, they will do so at their own peril. See results below. CDR Charles Kerchner (Ret), cdrkerchner.wordpress.com
Update 12:45 pm : Based on watching the live feed. Obama’s attorney was a no show. Hearing was conducted without him. At least one of the attorney’s pointed out to the judge that Obama’s attorney not showing up was showing contempt to the court and to the entire judicial system. There was a short private meeting in the Judge’s chambers prior to the start of the hearing. The hearing ended after about two hours of presentation by the various lawyers for the plaintiff’s side including getting testimony from witnesses and presenting the court exhibits and Supreme Court case law covering the issue of natural born Citizenship and that Obama is not “natural born Citizen of the United States” and thus is not eligible to be on the GA ballot. Atty Taitz also introduced evidence and witness testimony regarding Obama’s identity fraud activities regarding the Connecticut SSN and the forged online birth certificate. The judge is allowing some additional time for the both sides to submit written briefs to him before he makes his decision. As I understand it, he will release the final outcome and his decision sometime in early February. But he was obviously not happy that Obama and his attorneys stiffed the court. More details will be posted as additional information is provided by those who physically attended the hearing.
Update 1:05 pm: Per telecon between G Wilmott and Dean Haskins which was relayed to me. Dean Haskins who was in the courtroom this morning assisting with the Art 2Pac live stream. Judge Malihi talked to the attorneys in chambers before the hearing this morning and told them that he was going to enter a DEFAULT JUDGMENT against Obama and recommend that Obama’s name not be on the Georgia ballot! All the attorneys expressed a desire to put an abbreviated streamlined case on the record and the judge agreed. How does the mainstream media spin this? The Georgia SOS has already indicated that he will follow the judge’s recommendation. Obama will not get any popular vote or electors from the great state of Georgia! Congratulations to all freedom-loving Americans!
Barack Obama is NOT a “natural born Citizen of the United States” and is thus constitutionally ineligible to be the President and Commander in Chief of our military. Obama was born to a FOREIGN NATIONAL FATHER who was NEVER a U.S. Citizen nor was Obama’s father even an immigrant to the USA or even a permanent resident in the USA. For no other U.S. President in the history of the nation since the founding generation (who were exempt from the natural born Citizen clause in the U.S. Constitution via a grandfather clause in Article II Section 1) was that the case, i.e., having a foreign national father who was never a U.S. Citizen or even an immigrant to this country. Obama being seated as the putative president is an outrageous violation of Article II Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, the presidential eligibility clause. Obama was not born with sole allegiance to the USA. Sole allegiance and unity of Citizenship at birth was the goal and purpose for putting the natural born Citizen clause into Article II Section 1 of the Constitution as to who could serve as president once the founding generation has passed away. Obama (II) was born a British Subject via his foreign national father Obama (Sr.) who was a British Subject. Obama is not a “natural born Citizen of the United States” to constitutional standards since he was born with dual allegiance and citizenship. The founders and framers did not want anyone with foreign allegiance to ever get command of our military, i.e., be the president. Obama is constitutionally not eligible to be president and commander in chief of our military.
Adjectives mean something. A “Citizen at Birth” is not logically identically equal to a “natural born Citizen at Birth”. Barack Obama may be a ‘Citizen of the United States’ but he is not a ‘natural born Citizen of the United States’ and does not meet the constitutional standards as to who can be the President and Commander in Chief of our military: http://puzo1.blogspot.com/2010/03/obama-maybe-citizen-of-united-states.html
The natural born Citizen clause in our Constitution is a national security clause inserted into our Constitution by John Jay and George Washington. Read why the natural born Citizen clause is still important and worth protecting.

FYI:
"Andrew Restuccia of The Hill is reporting that Ener1, a battery company that President Obama referenced in his State of The Union Speech on Tuesday as an example of successful energy investments, has just filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy.
That's just two days after the speech.
“In three years, our partnership with the private sector has already positioned America to be the world’s leading manufacturer of high-tech batteries,” Obama said in his speech.
According to Phil Milford and Dawn McCarty at Businessweek, Ener1 had received a $118 million U.S. Energy Department grant to make electric-car batteries. And the grant received bi-partisan support, so it is not entirely on Obama's shoulders. From Businessweek:
Under President Barack Obama’s economic stimulus package, the Energy Department awarded grants in an attempt to create a U.S. electric-car industry. Ener1 subsidiary EnerDel was the grant recipient and has received about $55 million of its grant so far. A spokesman for the Energy Department, Jen Stutsman, said the department would provide comment soon.
In the 2010 State of the Union address, Obama mentioned Solyndra as another successful investment by the government in private-sector green-energy companies:
"You can see the results of last year's investments in clean energy. A North Carolina company that will create 1,200 jobs nationwide helping to make advanced batteries. Or in the California business, that will put a thousand people to work making solar panels,"
Solyndra, that California business, received a $535 million loan guarantee from the government before going bankrupt last September. Its top executives were enthusiastic Obama campaign donors. Solyndra had also spent nearly $1.8 million lobbying the government prior to receiving the loan guarantee.
It's obviously hugely embarrassing for the president to give another green-energy company a shout-out in his prime-time speech only to have it declare bankruptcy two days later. "

White House photo
1/27/12
Unbeknownst to the press, President Obama met Friday evening with former president George H.W. Bush and his son, former Florida governor Jeb Bush, in the Oval Office.
White House officials did not list the meeting on the president's schedule but released a photo on Flickr. According to the photo's time stamp, the meeting occurred shortly after 5 p.m., about the time the president returned to the White House from a fundraiser.
When asked what the men discussed and why it wasn't on the schedule, the White House released a statement saying, “The three men enjoyed a personal visit in the Oval Office – as they have done on previous occasions when President Bush is Washington.”
The Bushes are in town to attend the exclusive Alfalfa Club dinner Saturday, an annual get-together for Washington power brokers that Obama also is scheduled to attend, according to the Associated Press.
The meeting came at an interesting time politically, just one day after Obama, in an interview with ABC News, blamed predecessor George W. Bush for policies that brought on the greatest recession since the Great Depression. He also blamed him for initiating the expansion of food stamp rolls.
Jeb Bush has also played a critical role in the GOP presidential primary contest in Florida -- primarily by saying he wouldn't play a role. His endorsement would have been key in the race, currently neck and neck between Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, but Jeb Bush said last week that he would remain neutral.

Snippet from Article: (link at bottom of post)
Here five things that prove to me that your "hope and change" was a fraud, and that you're a stooge for the elite:
1 - Continuing The Iraq & Afghanistan Debacles
You knew that our invasions and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan went against every moral compass you claim to possess.
You knew the Iraq thing was all about lies and disinformation. You knew we had no legal or moral justification to bomb the hell out of that country and then invade and occupy it. You could have told Congress and the American people that funding such a disgrace would bankrupt us financially and spiritually… as it has.
As president, you could have and should have used the bully pulpit to alter the conversation and push for a withdrawal of forces and funds immediately.
Yes, you would have gotten slack from it, yet with folks like Republicans Ron Paul and Walter Jones, and Democrats like Dennis Kucinich and many others, the case would have been one of a bipartisan nature.
The fact is, Barack, that most Americans would have agreed with you, despite the bought-and-paid for mainstream media with its phony left-and-right slants. As far as Afghanistan, this whole ‘get those who did 9/11’ (if they were even the real culprits) action should have been part of a United Nations policing effort… not a vendetta or revenge act of imperialism.
By now you should realize that it really had very little, if at all, to do with Bin Laden or Al Qaeda. It was about extending our power to that region. History should have taught you, the scholar, that no foreigners have ever successfully colonized or occupied Afghanistan.
How many of our own former military officers and CIA analysts do you need to tell you that?
2 - Increasing Funding For This Military Empire
You have turned out to be the same as that jackass who you followed into the Oval Office.
Instead of drawing down our 800+ bases worldwide and cutting this outrageous military spending, you give us halfhearted political stunts. The military spending last year was over 560 billion dollars… and that does not include the black budget that even you probably know very little about (so much for who runs things Barack).
Ten years ago, the military spending was almost half of what it is now! We now spend, and you know this, Mr. President, 56 cents of every federal tax dollar on it… and you say we need economic stimulus!?
Now, you are being forced, along with Congress, to cut spending. The plan you are selling us is a joke Barack, and you know it! It comes out to less than 8 % a year over 10 years. Ron Paul says all the cuts should be completed in one year!
How many more foreclosures, lost jobs, homeless, hungry, medically untreated and underwater Americans need you see before you 'Get it'?

Someone sent me this email. I am thankful to whomever researched it. Sorry if it has already been posted.
1. Back in 1961 people of color were called 'Negroes.' So how can the Obama 'birth certificate' state he is 'African-American' when the term wasn't even used at that time?
2. The birth certificate that the White House released lists Obama's birth as August 4, 1961. It also lists Barack Hussein Obama as his father. No big deal, right? At the time of Obama's birth, it also shows that his father is aged 25 years old, and that Obama's father was born in " Kenya , East Africa". This wouldn't seem like anything of concern, except the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after Obama's birth, and 27 years after his father's birth. How could Obama's father have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until Kenya was formed in 1963, it was known then as the " British East Africa Protectorate".
3. On the birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place of birth is "Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital". This cannot be, because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called "KauiKeolani Children's Hospital" and "Kapi'olani Maternity Home", respectively. The name did not change to Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been applied to it until 1978?

FYI:
"US President Barack Obama has told Congress that the sanctions his administration imposed on Libya last year will be extended for another year, White House officials said.
Obama informed Congress on Thursday that the national emergency order allowing sanctions against Libya will continue, noting that Washington was concerned by ongoing threats posed to US interests by the family of Libya's slain dictator Muammar Gaddafi.
“The situation in Libya continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States,” Obama said in a letter to congressional leaders.
“We need to protect against this threat and the diversion of assets or other abuse by certain members of Gaddafi’s family and other former regime officials," he said.
"Therefore, I have determined that it is necessary to continue the national emergency with respect to Libya," he wrote.
Obama declared the national emergency over Libya on February 25, 2011, citing threats to US national security and foreign policy posed by Gaddafi and his government in their "extreme measures" against the people of Libya.
National emergency regulations authorize the US president to impose sanctions on foreign countries.
Sanctions imposed on overseas Libyan assets by the United Nations, the United States, and other nations have unwound slowly since Gaddafi’s death last year. However, releasing the assets is both politically and legally complicated, because the frozen funds include investments and property owned by private individuals. "

Update on lawsuit:
Why I'm Suing Obama, by Chris Hedges
Attorneys Carl J. Mayer and Bruce I. Afran filed a complaint Friday in the Southern U.S. District Court in New York City on my behalf as a plaintiff against Barack Obama and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to challenge the legality of the Authorization for Use of Military Force as embedded in the latest version of the National Defense Authorization Act, signed by the president Dec. 31.
The act authorizes the military in Title X, Subtitle D, entitled “Counter-Terrorism,” for the first time in more than 200 years, to carry out domestic policing. With this bill, which will take effect March 3, the military can indefinitely detain without trial any U.S. citizen deemed to be a terrorist or an accessory to terrorism. And suspects can be shipped by the military to our offshore penal colony in Guantanamo Bay and kept there until “the end of hostilities.” It is a catastrophic blow to civil liberties.
I spent many years in countries where the military had the power to arrest and detain citizens without charge. I have been in some of these jails. I have friends and colleagues who have “disappeared” into military gulags. I know the consequences of granting sweeping and unrestricted policing power to the armed forces of any nation. And while my battle may be quixotic, it is one that has to be fought if we are to have any hope of pulling this country back from corporate fascism.
Section 1031 of the bill defines a “covered person”—one subject to detention—as “a person who was a part of or substantially supported al-Qaeda, the Taliban, or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners, including any person who has committed a belligerent act or has directly supported such hostilities in aid of such enemy forces.”
The bill, however, does not define the terms “substantially supported,” “directly supported” or “associated forces.”
I met regularly with leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza. I used to visit Palestine Liberation Organization leaders, including Yasser Arafat and Abu Jihad, in Tunis when they were branded international terrorists. I have spent time with the Revolutionary Guard in Iran and was in northern Iraq and southeastern Turkey with fighters from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. All these entities were or are labeled as terrorist organizations by the U.S. government. What would this bill have meant if it had been in place when I and other Americans traveled in the 1980s with armed units of the Sandinistas in Nicaragua or the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front guerrillas in El Salvador? What would it have meant for those of us who were with the southern insurgents during the civil war in Yemen or the rebels in the southern Sudan? I have had dinner more times than I can count with people whom this country brands as terrorists. But that does not make me one.
Once a group is deemed to be a terrorist organization, whether it is a Palestinian charity or an element of the Uighur independence movement, the military can under this bill pick up a U.S. citizen who supported charities associated with the group or unwittingly sent money or medical supplies to front groups. We have already seen the persecution and closure of Islamic charity organizations in the United States that supported the Palestinians. Now the members of these organizations can be treated like card-carrying “terrorists” and sent to Guantanamo.
But I suspect the real purpose of this bill is to thwart internal, domestic movements that threaten the corporate state. The definition of a terrorist is already so amorphous under the Patriot Act that there are probably a few million Americans who qualify to be investigated if not locked up. Consider the arcane criteria that can make you a suspect in our new military-corporate state. The Department of Justice considers you worth investigating if you are missing a few fingers, if you have weatherproof ammunition, if you own guns or if you have hoarded more than seven days of food in your house. Adding a few of the obstructionist tactics of the Occupy movement to this list would be a seamless process. On the whim of the military, a suspected “terrorist” who also happens to be a U.S. citizen can suffer extraordinary rendition—being kidnapped and then left to rot in one of our black sites “until the end of hostilities.” Since this is an endless war that will be a very long stay.
This demented “war on terror” is as undefined and vague as such a conflict is in any totalitarian state. Dissent is increasingly equated in this country with treason. Enemies supposedly lurk in every organization that does not chant the patriotic mantras provided to it by the state. And this bill feeds a mounting state paranoia. It expands our permanent war to every spot on the globe. It erases fundamental constitutional liberties. It means we can no longer use the word “democracy” to describe our political system.
The supine and gutless Democratic Party, which would have feigned outrage if George W. Bush had put this into law, appears willing, once again, to grant Obama a pass. But I won’t. What he has done is unforgivable, unconstitutional and exceedingly dangerous. The threat and reach of al-Qaida—which I spent a year covering for The New York Times in Europe and the Middle East—are marginal, despite the attacks of 9/11. The terrorist group poses no existential threat to the nation. It has been so disrupted and broken that it can barely function. Osama bin Laden was gunned down by commandos and his body dumped into the sea. Even the Pentagon says the organization is crippled. So why, a decade after the start of the so-called war on terror, do these draconian measures need to be implemented? Why do U.S. citizens now need to be specifically singled out for military detention and denial of due process when under the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force the president can apparently find the legal cover to serve as judge, jury and executioner to assassinate U.S. citizens, as he did in the killing of the cleric Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen? Why is this bill necessary when the government routinely ignores our Fifth Amendment rights—“No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law”—as well as our First Amendment right of free speech? How much more power do they need to fight “terrorism”?
Fear is the psychological weapon of choice for totalitarian systems of power. Make the people afraid. Get them to surrender their rights in the name of national security. And then finish off the few who aren’t afraid enough. If this law is not revoked we will be no different from any sordid military dictatorship. Its implementation will be a huge leap forward for the corporate oligarchs who plan to continue to plunder the nation and use state and military security to cow the population into submission.
The oddest part of this legislation is that the FBI, the CIA, the director of national intelligence, the Pentagon and the attorney general didn’t support it. FBI Director Robert Mueller said he feared the bill would actually impede the bureau’s ability to investigate terrorism because it would be harder to win cooperation from suspects held by the military. “The possibility looms that we will lose opportunities to obtain cooperation from the persons in the past that we’ve been fairly successful in gaining,” he told Congress.
But it passed anyway. And I suspect it passed because the corporations, seeing the unrest in the streets, knowing that things are about to get much worse, worrying that the Occupy movement will expand, do not trust the police to protect them. They want to be able to call in the Army. And now they can.

Are you sure this info is genuine?
I´m really astonished here! If you see the second video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S40WKxKSlHc&feature=player_embedded), I´ll see that they claim to have downloaded the BC PDF from an official government site.
However, I can´t imagine that anyone from the government could be so stupid to actually upload a PDF file with layers, which obviously proves that it´s fabricated, to an official gov website!!
I mean, if they have indeed fabricated the PDF and the BC is a fraud, how did they forget to "flatten" the original file before saving as PDF! This is so stupid!
If this is true, I´m sure someone up there in the White House will never get a job for the rest of his life! This is such an amateurish mistake!

FIRST EVER LAW-ENFORCEMENT INVESTIGATION CONCLUDES OBAMA's BIRTH CERTIFICATE 'COMPUTER-GENERATED FORGERY'
"President Barack Obama's long-form birth certificate released by the White House on April 27, 2011, is suspected to be a computer-generated forgery, not a scan of an original 1961 paper document as represented by the White House when the long-form birth certificate was made public," Arizona's Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said at a press conference today in Phoenix.
This is the major preliminary finding of a six-month ongoing Sheriff's Cold Case Posse law enforcement investigation into the authenticity of Obama's birth certificate and his eligibility to be president.
Having developed probable cause to believe the long-form birth certificate was most likely a computer-generated forgery, investigators began examining other evidence of President Obama's life history.
Investigators additionally have developed credible evidence suggesting:
• President Obama's Selective Service card was most likely a forgery, revealed by an examination of the postal date stamp on the document;
• Records of Immigration and Naturalization Service cards filled out by airplane passengers arriving on international flights originating outside the United States in the month of August 1961, examined at the National Archives in Washington, D.C., are missing records for the week of President Obama's birth, including the dates Aug. 1, 1961 through Aug. 7, 1961.
Beginning in October 2011, the Sheriff's Cold Case Posse, consisting of former law enforcement officers and lawyers with law enforcement experience, examined dozens of witnesses and hundreds of documents, as well as taking numerous sworn statements from witnesses around the world.
In August 2011, 250 members of the Surprise, Arizona, Tea Party, residents of Maricopa County, presented a signed petition asking Sheriff Arpaio to undertake the investigation.
The Tea Party members petitioned under the premise that if a forged birth certificate was utilized to obtain a position for Barack Obama on the 2012 Arizona presidential ballot, their rights as Maricopa County voters could be compromised.
The Cold Case investigators further determined that the Hawaii Department of Health has engaged in what Sheriff's investigators believe is a systematic effort to hide from public inspection whatever original 1961 birth records the Hawaii Department of Health may have in their possession.
"Officers of the Hawaii Department of Health and various elected Hawaiian public officials may have intentionally obscured 1961 birth records and procedures, to avoid having to release to public inspection and to the examination of court-authorized forensic examiners any original Obama 1961 birth records the Hawaii Department of Health may or may not have," said Mike Zullo, the lead investigator in Sheriff Arpaio's Cold Case Posse.
The Cold Case investigators have not yet determined who, when, or precisely how the long-form computer-generated birth certificate released on April 27 may have been forged, but investigators say the evidence contained in the computer-generated PDF file released by the White House as well as important deficiencies in the Hawaii process of certifying the long-form birth certificate establish probable cause that a forgery has been committed.
The Cold Case Posse investigators advised Sheriff Arpaio that the forgers most likely committed two crimes: first, in fraudulently creating a forgery that the White House characterized, knowingly or unknowingly, as an officially produced governmental birth record; and second, in fraudulently presenting to the residents of Maricopa County and to the American public at large a forgery the White House represented as "proof positive" of President Obama's authentic 1961 Hawaii long-form birth certificate.
"A continuing investigation is needed to identify the identity of the person or persons involved in creating the alleged birth certificate forgery, and to determine who, if anyone, in the White House or the state of Hawaii may have authorized the forgery," Arpaio said.
Among the evidence released at the press conference were five videos the Cold Case Posse produced to demonstrate why the Obama long-form birth certificate is suspected to be a computer-generated forgery.
The videos consisted of step-by-step computer demonstrations using a control document.
The videos were designed to display the testing used by the investigators to examine various claims made by supporters of the April 27 document.
The videos illustrate point-by-point the investigators' conclusion that the features and anomalies observed on the Obama long-form birth certificate were inconsistent with features produced when a paper document is scanned, even if the scan of the paper document had been enhanced by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and optimized.
Additionally, the videos demonstrated that the Hawaii Department of Health Registrar's name stamp and the Registrar's date stamp were computer-generated images imported into an electronic document, as opposed to actual rubber stamp imprints inked by hand or machine onto a paper document.
"That we were able to cast reasonable suspicions on the authenticity of the Registrar stamps was especially disturbing, since these stamp imprints are designed to provide government authentication to the document itself," Zullo said, stressing that if the Registrar stamps are forgeries, the document itself is likely a forgery.
The investigators also chronicled a series of inconsistent and misleading representations that various Hawaii government officials have made over the past five years regarding what, if any, original birth records are held by the Hawaii Department of Health.
"As I said at the beginning of the investigation," Arpaio said, "the president can put all this to rest quite easily. All he has to do is demand the Hawaii Department of Health release to the American public and to a panel of certified court-authorized forensic examiners all original 1961 paper, microfilm, and computer birth records the Hawaii Department of Health has in its possession."
Arpaio further stressed the Hawaii Department of Health needs to provide, as part of the full disclosure, evidence regarding the chain of custody of all Obama birth records, including paper, microfilm, and electronic records, in order to eliminate the possibility that a forger or forgers may have tampered with the birth records.
Arpaio went on to say the President should also authorize Kapiolani Hospital, the birth hospital listed on the Obama long-form birth certificate, to release any and all hospital patient records for Stanley Ann Dunham Obama, his mother, and for the newly born Barack Obama, in order to provide additional corroboration for the original 1961 birth records held in the Hawaii Department of Health vault.
"Absent the authentic Hawaii Department of Health 1961 birth records for Barack Obama, there is no other credible proof supporting the idea or belief that President Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, as he and the White House have consistently asserted," Zullo said.
"In fact, absent the authentication of Hawaii Department of Health 1961 birth records for Barack Obama, there is no other proof he was born anywhere within the United States."
Arpaio concluded the press conference by suggesting a congressional investigation might be warranted and asked that any other law enforcement agency with information referencing this investigation be forwarded to his office.

I have no particular interest in this but here i go!
In the 1950s I was at boarding school in the UK. Ex-pat farmers and govt officials used to send their children 'home' for their education and we had quite a number. As well as girls from India, Ceylon (as it was then) and even the US(!) we had quite a few from Kenya. It may have been called something else officially, but I have only ever heard of it called Kenya, pronounced KEEnya, as in 'need', not Kenya as in 'get'. Just anecdotal I know, but at least it casts some doubt on such certainty.
Maybe Mr Obama's father referred to himself as an African American as that is what he was. An African in America. Maybe it was easier than trying to explain Kenya and Protectorates to everyone. i am sure he would not have done so had he known the trouble he would cause. But then again....!

Another possibility ... the fake birth certificate might have been a setup ... to enable taking Obama down if he didn't start "playing ball" with some faction that managed to slip out the obvious fake.
It seems, from such reports as this one Veterans Today: Weekly Intelligence Report. Israel, Korea, Gass Prices and More. (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?41792-Veterans-Today-Weekly-Intelligence-Report.-Israel-Korea-Gass-Prices-and-More.) that major news media (likely in line with Israelie-Zionist support) are suppressing news favorable to Obama and giving wide coverage to news hurting Obama.

The page with this information has been up on the white house website for some time RMorgan. James Gilliland sent an email with the youtube presentation about 9months ago. I was shocked to read it for myself, posted in the plain light of day on the official site.
Why, when the content of the PDF is obviously fudged and layered? Good question. It is almost like a bait, come get us! Now what would be the reason for that? I never trusted the entrance of Obama - always have believed that all incoming US presidents are compromised the day that they take up office. From this information, you could ascertain that Obama was a willing participant from the word get go - as Basiago and company have so eloquently laid out for us in recent times. Or, a p***d off insider has deliberately inserted this into the public ether.

Sorry Viking...this sounds like right wing propaganda gone wild! They have absolutely lost their minds over here in the US and will do whatever it takes to smear Obama's reputation to take back the White House. Brietbart was pure journalistic scum who was about as low as you can get on a professional ethics scale. He personally ruined the career of many people, including Congressman Anthony Weiner last year who was one of the last true American hero's in Congress fighting the the working class. He caused Shirley Sherod to lose her government position when he doctored tapes of a lecture she did...the details escape me, but the point is he was a tool of mass destruction for right wing msm and this sounds just like something they would manufacture or create to keep the Obama hate frenzy fueled.
My college degree's in radio broadcasting and to be honest I've never been so ashamed of the entire news industry, it's an utter disgrace the way they've lied incessantly to manipulate the public...Republican and neoconservative interests own the entire mass media machine in America. From the moment Obama stepped into office the race to the bottom began with Fox News (Rupert Murdoch) in the lead. Every morning the talking heads get their talking points straight from right-wing think tanks like the Heritage Foundation and Americans for Prosperity, doesn't anyone wonder how Limburger, Beck, Hannity and Sludge can all be talking about the same thing everyday? The whole thing is orchestrated....including stories like this. which is nothing more than an opportunity to keep hate alive!
I've been amazed at how people who claim to be enlightened and aware fall for these lies spewed on a daily basis daily by the talking heads, when half the time if they did a little research they would learn that their hate is based in half truths, omission's or political slight of hand. It's all smoke and mirrors, a way to keep us distracted from all the cosmic energies coming in...after all how can one ascend when they have so much hate in their heart for Obama?
Your over in the UK where you have your own crazy ars media to contend with...over here the lunatics have taken over the asylum. If you know how to understand code then you can comprehend the news, that is now that we live in opposite world where black is white and white is black.
Although I recently heard RUMOR that CBS may break away from the pack to begin exhibiting journalistic integrity again...we'll see.
Good ridence to Brietbart...he's surely facing the music for his transgressions against humanity and Broadcast Journalism, and, you can bet the right wing media will use his death in whatever way they can to it's advantage on the Hate Obama Crazy Train.
I haven't been happy with everything he's done either...but no president could function effectively in a hateful environment such as he's faced with the "just say no" Senate and congress where most of the work actually takes place. But while Americans face high unemployment and a whole Myriad of problems do you want to know what the Republican led Congress did last week....NAMED POST OFFICES!! While saying no to every good thing presented for the people by Obama or the Dem's.
Anything Breitbart was going to release in 7-10 days was a doctored piece of manufactured propaganda aimed had fueling hate, fear and division in America. Why bother with that toxic rubbish, when it only serves to lower your awesome vibration Viking!? :hail:

Look, Viking, anyone who disagrees with Liberalism is somehow a fascist, neo-con, nut-job. It doesn't make the Left correct, it just makes them angry hate-mongers (who, for some reason, seem to think that they are the most tolerant people in the room).
Breitbart had the balls to stand up against the Left and their propaganda. That's why his death is celebrated. The Left doesn't realize that it comes off like a bunch of loons/fanatics/radicals because they assume that everyone who has a brain should (naturally) agree with them. They don't allow for the possibility that they could be wrong and that other viewpoints and lifestyles are just as a valid. Other people have just as much right to their opinions and beliefs as they do. However, the Left's goal is to suppress anyone or anything that doesn't go along with their ideology.
The truth is the truth, regardless if it fits a political ideologically or not. The fact is that there are valid reasons why President Obama is disliked. Breitbart used the tactics of the Left to go after the Left. Of course, he's going to get this kind of treatment when he dies. That's what the Left always does. They're going to shut down anyone who doesn't buy into their propaganda. Meanwhile, on the right, the elites wish they could get their grassroots to shut up and drink the Kool-aid too.....Neither side is 100% right on every issue. To think that is very short-sighted and means that people are excluding a lot of inconvenient data to keep their ideology in tact. That's what's dangerous about this whole political climate we are in.....I'm not delusional because I don't agree with you. I'm exercising my right to have independent thoughts that don't agree with yours.

I am constantly amazed that people actually think Obama is some kind of "good guy". I have a relative that is a Family adviser to him, he was also an adviser to the both Bush's when they were up there. The kind of adviser that is not on the books, so trust me they all work for the same secret group and do as they are told. The Bush's were Nazi's and Obama is a Marxist, but they got were they are because they have taken an oath to push the Family agenda forward regardless of what they think.
The people that they work for also own ALL of your television media, stop watching it, its all lies. YOUR NEWS IS FAKE. My mother was a CIA asset and was involved in many CIA/military black projects involving mind control. She used to do TV commercials and then was involved in the civil rights movement back in the sixty's. You see ALL sides of that mess were funded and ran by the secret govt, and the TV media reported on it and made up the rest. Most members of your major TV news today are actually either CIA themselves or are members of Bloodline Family's. Ever wonder who Anderson Cooper really is? No? you should. Its all there to give you a belief in a false reality. Everything you have seen on TV is either fake or told in some way that is part of their agenda. Stop giving your energy to this, TV programing is mind control programing, period.
Anyway people like Breitbart are just doing their job. If however you get deep enough to blow the whistle then you have already made the agreement to go along with the agenda or pay the price. They will take you out if you betray your oath, you will have a heart attack or shoot yourself twice in the head. The internet is full of people that have no such agreements, if they have no connections to the mainstream. Spend your time there and throw out your television.

Thanks Ascending...much appreciated feedback...
You know I really am not sure with Obama... I really would love to believe that he is one of the good guys, but by 'their fruits you shall know them' ...
Show me please...that he is of the light.
Blessings

Denial is a form of Guilt...
Obama is 'GUILTY' as charged and 'WORSE'..!
It actually pains me to think that anyone can believe he is from the 'Light'..?
...ad hominem hubris & hyperbole is a slight on Discernment of 'Truth'..!

I'm quite frankly not interested in this particular drama, but would just like to ask ONE simple question:
If this video is as Earth shattering and important as it's being claimed to be, why announce that it will be realeased in n days ? What's wrong with now ?

The right and the left are both as crooked as the day is long. In order to get to postions of power they have to owe someone something to get there.Stagnation in the government is want they want. Nothing gets done, they can't get blamed ,so they get voted back in. Then when they get old or tried they become lobbists and continue to make money off the rest of us. We need the old system of bardering with your neighboor and dam the rest of em who make money for nothing but managing the system.No taxes just resepct of other and their work to keep us moving towards a goal that this group of good people should help society come up with. Throw out all the bums and get back to people making the decision.Let us vote on important things and then except the majority rule. My 2 cents.

It does'nt matter whether Brietbart was Murdered or Not, the fact remains that he has (MASSIVE SUPPORT) moreso than any other in the Alternative Media personality I have ever seen...
Why..? Because he was respected by the MainStream that's Why..!

So true TargeT. I can see the trend in the Thanks footers that folk here are giving to each of the posts :cheer2: There is some swinging going down! Confused? Fencers? Impartialists? Or just saying thanks for saying what you are thinking and what you believe in.
All OK with me too :wacko:

BUT
Posted by Siberia9 (here)I am constantly amazed that people actually think Obama is some kind of "good guy".
This suggests that we are all still drowning in duality. I agree with Siberia. The evidence is in, we of all people within this alternative domain, cannot continue to deny that there is something very rotten in the state of Obama. The man comes from the belly of the beast. A good number of credible witnesses have now said that he has ALWAYS been a part of it, raised and trained to be part of an elaborate plan which is so patently evil - it is sometimes just so uncomfortable to entertain.
To Americans on here, I hope you don´t mind me commenting on all of this, but I have always felt connected with the US. I also have both family and friends living there - and because of the distance - some objectivity if you like. Over the last 10 years especially, for some cosmic reason, I have become privy also to disturbing information - about the most outrageous claims, about covert military operations and including the dirt on who did and who knew about 9/11 before it happened. Info given to me face to face by people who have opened up and off the record of course. Not information I was asking for, let me tell you, but once you hear it, you are complicit in some way. It has taken me a few years to integrate some of the information that has been shared with me. I have been slow, but when the hard evidence started about 9/11 and this was eight years after when I first heard it, I guess I got my personal proof that what I had been told all those years ago was TRUE! I felt sick. I felt angry. I felt it was time I started taking some responsibility.
Sorry to say, but when Obama frenzy took over before the last election, I just could not get excited. It was also too slick for my liking. This was something that was eating at my gut. I thought, well where did he come from? Everyone was glowing about how this guy has a great cabinet behind him. Top team to turn things around. All I could think of was: REALITY CHECK EVERYONE! Get a grip. Am I the only one thinking this? Day one of office, this guy is going to get a visit from the big guys. Forget it. Don´t you get it? !!
I may seem a little negative but how much more evidence do we need? The US government, any western government, all compromised, owned. I don´t trust the system in any way, shape or form. Because it is not controlled by me or you, and it is constantly re-writing itself to protect and look after no-one but itself.
So we have got to take the lead ourselves, and start standing up when we know something stinks.
Who was it who said the changes you want to see, must start with yourself? That you start with feeling into what you think in your heart is right or wrong? We have got to start using that powerful inner knowledge to discern. Knowledge combined with intuition. USE IT. The emotion you feel attached to an idea, if it feels strong, clean and coming from a place of love, then you have your answer.
There are a lot of good people still left standing, and if we stand together, we will get there. At least we shall inspire evolution into a healthier new world.
As for Breitbart, I beg you all to have compassion for the man, his spirit, his family and his dream - even if it was not always played out so sweetly and with sophistication to everyone´s tastes - his core intention to improve the state of his country and the future, you cannot deny that was not in his heart. In the big picture of things - Breitbart´s untimely and suspicious death has become a sacrifice - it is a gift and we should use that gift well and be grateful for it, because all said and done, Breitbart did put himself on the line - and for a lot more than himself.
Thanks for reading. Keep the dialogue rolling. It is a pleasure to read you all .. and also to be challenged to think deeper.

Thanks brenie,
Good point. I get a good vibration from Ron Paul. He has made some beautiful speeches. I admire his ability to hold the space and with grace even under severe attack.
However, although I noticed that Obama did grow grey hair by the end of his first year as president, I wonder brenie. The more I listen into all of this, the more I think that Obama is not in the least concerned about his dodgy birth certificate. I think he´s been a good employee of the firm (TPTB) all along and trusts that he is above the law. He made a very convincing statement last year in his defense I have to say, but I question why he did not allow for any questions from the press at that conference, and just walked away.

Look, Viking, anyone who disagrees with Liberalism is somehow a fascist, neo-con, nut-job. It doesn't make the Left correct, it just makes them angry hate-mongers (who, for some reason, seem to think that they are the most tolerant people in the room).
Breitbart had the balls to stand up against the Left and their propaganda. That's why his death is celebrated. The Left doesn't realize that it comes off like a bunch of loons/fanatics/radicals because they assume that everyone who has a brain should (naturally) agree with them. They don't allow for the possibility that they could be wrong and that other viewpoints and lifestyles are just as a valid. Other people have just as much right to their opinions and beliefs as they do. However, the Left's goal is to suppress anyone or anything that doesn't go along with their ideology.
The truth is the truth, regardless if it fits a political ideologically or not. The fact is that there are valid reasons why President Obama is disliked. Breitbart used the tactics of the Left to go after the Left. Of course, he's going to get this kind of treatment when he dies. That's what the Left always does. They're going to shut down anyone who doesn't buy into their propaganda. Meanwhile, on the right, the elites wish they could get their grassroots to shut up and drink the Kool-aid too.....Neither side is 100% right on every issue. To think that is very short-sighted and means that people are excluding a lot of inconvenient data to keep their ideology in tact. That's what's dangerous about this whole political climate we are in.....I'm not delusional because I don't agree with you. I'm exercising my right to have independent thoughts that don't agree with yours.
The journalism Breitbart did could hardly be called such. He cut and spliced to make people seem to be saying the opposite of what they were saying, and caused them a great deal of grief. What he did to Sherod was indefensible. Indefensible. There is no way it can be defended. He was not honest.
If you want to sing his praises and jump on his bandwagon because he's selling something you want to believe is true.... Well, that doesn't make it true. No matter how badly you or his other followers want it to be true.

I am constantly amazed that people actually think Obama is some kind of "good guy". I have a relative that is a Family adviser to him, he was also an adviser to the both Bush's when they were up there. The kind of adviser that is not on the books, so trust me they all work for the same secret group and do as they are told. The Bush's were Nazi's and Obama is a Marxist, but they got were they are because they have taken an oath to push the Family agenda forward regardless of what they think.
The people that they work for also own ALL of your television media, stop watching it, its all lies. YOUR NEWS IS FAKE. My mother was a CIA asset and was involved in many CIA/military black projects involving mind control. She used to do TV commercials and then was involved in the civil rights movement back in the sixty's. You see ALL sides of that mess were funded and ran by the secret govt, and the TV media reported on it and made up the rest. Most members of your major TV news today are actually either CIA themselves or are members of Bloodline Family's. Ever wonder who Anderson Cooper really is? No? you should. Its all there to give you a belief in a false reality. Everything you have seen on TV is either fake or told in some way that is part of their agenda. Stop giving your energy to this, TV programing is mind control programing, period.
Anyway people like Breitbart are just doing their job. If however you get deep enough to blow the whistle then you have already made the agreement to go along with the agenda or pay the price. They will take you out if you betray your oath, you will have a heart attack or shoot yourself twice in the head. The internet is full of people that have no such agreements, if they have no connections to the mainstream. Spend your time there and throw out your television.
Excuse me, are you saying the CIA made up the civil rights movement?
Excuse me for asking, but would you mind saying how old you are? I'm going to guess you are young, because only someone young would say "were funded and ran" instead of "were funded and run," but I'm almost sixty and I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee watching the civil rights movement all around me. My mother was in it, and she wasn't any CIA asset. Neither was Mattie Singstack or Jesse or Allegra Turner or a multitude of other activists. The CIA didn't make up the Saturday Luncheon Group, either.
And I think it was, all in all, a rather good thing. I would imagine the CIA certainly infiltrated it, or the FBI did, or both, as they infiltrated all social movements. But they were just tagging along until they could do some damage or maybe bring someone like MLK, Jr. down.
You are right that all the news today is fake. But back then it wasn't. Back then there were still newspapers that were owned by families -- although they were disappearing at a great rate! But they were still there. Like the one in Little Rock, Arkansas (the Little Rock Gazette, I think? Not family owned anymore, of course), where the editor went up against his advertisers to tell the truth about what was happening there with desegregation.
Breitbart shouldn't even be called a journalist.

How much would you like? This is just a taste....
[To summarize, though, he took a video of Shirley Sherrod making a speech at an NAACP meeting or dinner or something, in which she told a story about dealing with a farmer in the south. He edited this video to remove all context, said that it proved that she was performing her job in a way that was racist, and that this racism was deliberate, and that the people at the NAACP dinner applauded this display of racism. She lost her job because of this.
Then it came out that he was presenting the opposite of the truth: she was telling the story to make the point that racism could be overcome, left behind.... Not that she was proud of being a racist!
Breitbart even admitted he took her comments out of context. But he said he used just that portion because it was all he had. Then it was demonstrated that it had even been edited, to make her look even worse. Needless to say, it was all cut, snipped, taken out of context and then lied about to make a completely false point, by Breitbart. Not my idea of good journalism.]
From Media Matters:
Breitbart Posted Heavily Edited Video To Smear Shirley Sherrod
Breitbart Posted "Video Proof: The NAACP Awards Racism" By Sherrod. Breitbart posted heavily edited video of Sherrod speaking at an NAACP function and falsely suggested that Sherrod discriminated against a white farmer in her capacity as the Agriculture Department's Georgia Director of Rural Development:
We are in possession of a video from in which Shirley Sherrod, USDA Georgia Director of Rural Development, speaks at the NAACP Freedom Fund dinner in Georgia. In her meandering speech to what appears to be an all-black audience, this federally appointed executive bureaucrat lays out in stark detail, that her federal duties are managed through the prism of race and class distinctions.
In the first video, Sherrod describes how she racially discriminates against a white farmer. She describes how she is torn over how much she will choose to help him. And, she admits that she doesn't do everything she can for him, because he is white. Eventually, her basic humanity informs that this white man is poor and needs help. But she decides that he should get help from "one of his own kind". She refers him to a white lawyer.
Sherrod's racist tale is received by the NAACP audience with nodding approval and murmurs of recognition and agreement. Hardly the behavior of the group now holding itself up as the supreme judge of another groups' racial tolerance.
Full Video From NAACP Exonerated Sherrod From Accusations Of Racism. On the evening of July 20, the NAACP posted the full video of Sherrod's speech, proving Breitbart's accusation of racism false:
The video of Shirley Sherrod released by Andrew Brietbart's Big Government Blog on July 19 didn't tell the full story. It was selectively edited to cast her in a negative light. Here is the video, shot by the local NAACP unit that hosted Ms. Sherrod. Watch the video, and judge for yourself. [NAACP, 07/20/10 (http://mediamatters.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.naacp.org%2Fnews%2Fentry%2Fvideo_sherrod%2F)]
Breitbart On Why He Did Not Post Full Video: "I Don't Have It." In an interview with Talking Points Memo, Breitbart confirmed that he never had the full video of Sherrod's remarks:
The crux of the Shirley Sherrod controversy is what she said outside of the two-minute video clip posted by Big Government -- whether she was, as she claims, telling a story about how she overcame racial prejudice while helping poor farmers in Georgia, or whether the clip is a good encapsulation of her views. So we asked Andrew Breitbart, the founder of Big Government, why he hasn't posted the full video.
"I don't have it," Breitbart told TPMmuckraker in an interview. Breitbart said his source sent him just the edited clips at first, but is in the process of sending the full video. [Talking Points Memo, 07/20/10 (http://mediamatters.org/rd?to=http%3A%2F%2Ftpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com%2F2010%2F07%2Fbreitbart_i_did_not_edit_this_th ing.php)]
Breitbart On Whether The "Edited" Sherrod Video He Posted Was "Out Of Context": "Well, Yes." In an interview with Daniel Stone of Newsweek, Breitbart did not object to Stone's characterization of the Sherrod video as "edited" and admitted that he "took things out of context":

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#mw-head), search (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#p-search)
On July 19, 2010, [B]Shirley Sherrod was forced to resign from her appointed position as Georgia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_%28U.S._state%29) State Director of Rural Development (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USDA_Rural_Development) for the United States Department of Agriculture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Department_of_Agriculture)[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-Vilsack-0) because of video excerpts from her address to a March 2010 NAACP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAACP) event and commentary posted by blogger Andrew Breitbart (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Breitbart) on his website.[2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-Fox20100719-1) Based on these video excerpts, the NAACP condemned Sherrod's remarks as racist and U.S. government officials called on the official to resign. But, with review of the complete unedited video in full context, the NAACP, White House officials, and Tom Vilsack (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Vilsack), the United States Secretary of Agriculture (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Secretary_of_Agriculture), apologized for the firing and offered Sherrod a new position.
Extensive media coverage of the excerpted videos, various parties' comments, and later corrections when the full story was discovered, exacerbated the affair. The event brought to the forefront current debates regarding racism in the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racism_in_the_United_States), cable news (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_cable_news) reporting, ideological websites (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_blog) on the internet, and decisions made by President Barack Obama (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama)'s administration (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_Barack_Obama).[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-BBC_News-2)[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-3)
The Obama administration apologized to Sherrod, and offered her a full-time, high-level internal advocacy position with the USDA[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-LA20100722-4)[6] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-5)[7] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-6), which she ultimately declined.[8] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-turnsdown-7) In 2011, Sherrod initiated a libel lawsuit against Breitbart and co-defendant Larry O'Connor for defamation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defamation).[9] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resignation_of_Shirley_Sherrod#cite_note-atgathering-8) Their attorney filed for dismissal two months later on First Amendment grounds. In February 2012, defendant's's motion for dismissal under provisions of the "SLAPP" act was denied and subsequently appealed to the U.S. District Court for the D.C. Circuit.
From Huffington Post:
Shirley Sherrod Case Against Andrew Breitbart Begins
WASHINGTON — Lawyers for conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart asked Tuesday that a federal judge throw out a defamation case that former government employee Shirley Sherrod brought against him.
Sherrod was ousted from her job as a Georgia rural development official last year after Breitbart posted an edited video of her making supposedly making racist remarks. She sued Breitbart, his employee Larry O'Connor and an unnamed defendant for defamation and emotional distress. Sherrod's lawyers say the unnamed defendant is the person who they believe passed the video on to Breitbart.
The video on Andrew Breitbart's website turned out to be edited, and when Sherrod's full speech to an NAACP group earlier that year came to light, it became clear that her remarks about an initial reluctance to help a white farmer were not racist but an attempt at telling a story of racial reconciliation. Once that was obvious, Sherrod received public apologies from the administration – even from President Barack Obama himself – and an offer to come back to the Department of Agriculture, which she declined.
In the first hearing in the case Tuesday, exactly a year to the day Sherrod was ousted, lawyers for Breitbart argued that Sherrod's case is an attempt to dampen free speech and should be dismissed. They also argued to have it dismissed under a District of Columbia statute that aims to prevent the silencing of critics through lawsuits.
If the case is not dismissed, Breitbart and O'Connor's lawyers argued to have it moved from the District of Columbia to California, where the two men live. U.S. District Judge Richard J. Leon said he would consider all of the requests but did not indicate how he would rule.
Sherrod's complaint says the incident has affected her sleep and caused her back pain. It contends that she was damaged by having her "integrity, impartiality and motivations questioned, making it difficult (if not impossible) for her to continue her life's work assisting poor farmers in rural areas" even though she was invited to come back to the Agriculture Department.
Breitbart's original posting a year ago showed an excerpt of a March 2010 speech to an NAACP group in which Sherrod talked about her reluctance to help a white farmer who came to her more than two decades ago when she worked at a farm aid nonprofit group. The video was posted amid ongoing friction between the NAACP and the tea party movement, each of which were accusing the other of having racist elements among their ranks.
The blogger said at the time that the video showed the NAACP condoning racist comments from a government official.
The full video, however, shows Sherrod explaining to the audience how she eventually became friends with the farmer and helped him save his land from foreclosure. .
Of course, the best would be to show his "edited" version, the one he presented as proof of her racism, and the real video. I don't know if I can find those, and if I could, if I could post them, but I'll give it a shot. Unless someone more technically savvy than I would like to volunteer?
And, sad to say, this is just one case. There are others, of course.
I didn't know it was possible to live in this country and not know what Brietbart did to his videos, but I guess it is possible. I don't watch the news anymore myself, so, if it were now I probably wouldn't know either. But that was then...

Anyone that made any noise needed people to write the speech's, generate funding etc etc. The people that showed up to do that were almost all govt asset's, didn't matter if it was the Black Panthers or the Klan or MLK. They quietly controlled all these groups from inside.
The secret govt liked the civil rights movement as much as you did. They also ran the womens lib movement from beginning to end. Good well meaning people showed up to help and the News Media did their part.
This social engineering is all part of their agenda not yours. I wish there was a way that I could help people see it but I know it isn't going to happen so I say believe what you like. Frankly I'm out of gas, I no longer try to help people see the truth in all this, its not my job and its a waste of energy. I know what they did and are doing, however this type of information only serves to generate anger toward me because it challenges everything folks think is real. It also gets "Them" angry at me, and recently was asked why I bother, it was suggested that I no longer speak on private subjects. For the first time I think they are correct, so on that note I will bow out.

Who was Obama before becoming president, I mean, did he have a solid political history?
Obama served six years in the Illinois state senate (1997 to 2004) and was in his first term as US Senator for Illinois when he ran for Presidency (running during 2007, winning election in Nov 2007, to begin serving Jan 2008).
He was not particular distinguished (in my view) in either capacity. His history prior to that claims degrees from Columbia University and Harvard Law School ... though there are massive gaps in the record ... it's not clear to me where he was prior to 1997.
No ... not a solid political history.
Rather it is a demonstration of how readily the powers that be can install their preferred candidate into the White House, regardless of the candidate's background.

he got his state senate seat through redistricting.... I'd say his political career is FAR from even qualifying as "not particularly distinguished" more like very particularly curious, groomed and catapulted into office...

Siberia,
Your voice is valid. What you bring is valuable. It is a hard job delivering the truth, as you know it. People are being raw on here, stating what they know to be true. And when paradigms are jolted, there can be countless directions in which responses go ... open and curious, confused and speechless, outraged and reactive. Some give everyone the space to speak and support them lovingly, others tend to joke .. etc., etc..
You are brave to bring details of your background to the table. The context you share is as valid as the next person. I would hope it all serves the emergence and shared understanding of what the truth really is.
No one should be cast into quarantine, and certainly not put themselves there either. :)

Clues Left in Obama 'Birth Forgery' on Purpose?
Friday, March 02, 2012 – by Staff Report
An investigative "Cold Case Posse" launched six months ago by "America's toughest sheriff" – Joe Arpaio of Arizona's Maricopa County – has concluded there is probable cause that the document released by the White House last year as President Obama's birth certificate is a computer-generated forgery. The posse says it has identified at least one person of interest in the alleged forgery of Obama's birth certificate. – ABC News
Dominant Social Theme: It was a great cover-up, but now it's been found out. Obama is not what he seems to be. So what are you gonna do about it?
Free-Market Analysis: While we have always believed that President Barack Obama was controlled by the larger forces of the Anglosphere elite, the apparent forgery of his birth certificate raises even more questions.
Is it possible that Obama, one of the most powerful men on the planet, released an apparently hideously flawed document on purpose? The alternative is to believe that he put out an electronic document with NINE LAYERS that clearly seems to show evidence of tampering.
All the man and his (hypothetical) handlers had to do was print out the document and run it through a scanner (thus re-condensing the layers). Heck, they probably could just have re-saved the document as a jpeg, pdf, etc.
It seems crazy, doesn't it? Anyone who has the patience to sit through yesterday's Cold Case Posse presentation (see article excerpt above) should come away astonished by two salient facts:
One, the US President is apparently occupying his position illegally (so it seems); and two, the release of the "long form" and its clumsy manipulations must be comparable to the Watergate cover-up in terms of its ineptness. This is not too strong a statement, in our humble estimation.
There are tens of millions in the US who work with Photoshop or Illustrator regularly or irregularly. Ask almost any of these individuals if they would release a document with nine separate layers showing evidence of tampering (when trying to establish the authenticity of a document) and listen to their responses.
We can't say for sure but we'd be surprised if more than a handful would indicate that they'd follow the path Obama (or those around him) took ... providing what seems to be a kind of documentary proof that Sheriff Joe Arpaio has now seized upon (though it took his "cold case posse" six months).
With all the resources at his disposal, Obama still evidently managed to release an easily exposed cover-up. This despite plenty of apocryphal evidence that Obama is a direct product – or outcome – of US Intel, with its literally millions of spooks, "spook support" and high-tech gadgetry.
We do believe that Obama is "handled." What else CAN we believe? He won't let any of his records be examined, going back all the way to kindergarten. And his activities are in line with what the elites want to accomplish – one-world government.
The elites apparently are creating a formal world government in the modern era via global depression and war. We don't believe the US economy is improving and we don't believe the EU "crisis" is over.
Nikolas Sarkozy was just chased into a French pub in Basque country and had to hide out there for several hours while the crowd raged outside. The mood in Europe is foul. In the US and Britain it's just as bad. China isn't so happy, either.
And yet ... this is exactly what can be expected given the policies that are in place. There is no doubt the current economic environment is a "controlled" outcome. Central banks are not flora or fauna; they are not "potted plants." They do not occur naturally.
Monopoly fiat money is a ruinous phenomenon. Those who have built and implemented some 150 central banks around the world understand full well what they do and what the ramifications are.
It is the Internet itself – through what we call the Internet Reformation – that has challenged the plans of the powers-that-be. Like the Gutenberg Press before it, it has exposed the larger strategy of the elites of the day.
We're not sure if there was a larger, cohesive conspiracy 700 years ago, but there sure seems to be one now. An entire globalist system is now in place including NATO, the UN, the World Criminal Court, the IMF, the World Bank (which wants to take over jurisdiction for the oceans) and the World Health Organization.
The elites have moved their plans forward via dominant social themes – fear-based promotions – that frighten Western middle classes into giving up power and wealth to globalist facilities. But in the Internet era, these promotions are working a good deal less effectively.
It is to the benefit of the elites to continually sow doubt and confusion within the mind of the larger public when it comes to any kind of modern facility, either governmental or technological. We believe the power elite through its controlled Intel operations is pouring resources into undermining the alternative 'Net media.
The idea is to create a narrative of confusion, one in which the outlines of the REAL story are gradually blurred and no one knows whom to trust or what the outlines of objective truth (yes, there is such a thing within the purview of our experiences) might look like.
But we also believe the historic release of this questionable Obama long-form gives us another tactic to ponder. As the Internet Reformation has had a continual impact on the plans of the elites they have grown far more brutal and obvious. As someone recently wrote, "the gloves are off."
Thus, we figure the clumsiness of this long-form forgery (if that is what it is) is perhaps predictable, and even PURPOSEFUL. The idea might be that those who are "running the show" want to provide us with irredeemable proof that they can basically do whatever they want.
They're SHOWING us that they're in charge; that they can put a man in office who has no business being there and is actively trying to destroy what is left of the US Republic. Yes ... it could be argued this is part of a larger methodology of intimidation.
There may be even more to it, by the way. We're not necessarily big fans of either "Sheriff Joe" – an authoritarian bully, in our view – or the hyper-conservative/hyper-theological World Net Daily (though its editors and writers certainly break courageous stories now and again).
But we can't help noticing this entire incident has ended up pitting these two elements against an even more objectionable opponent (from a freedom standpoint) in the Obama administration. Once again, we're being presented with a conservative/liberal dialectic. The world is being framed in illogical, but compelling, ways.
We find it really difficult to believe that with all the resources available to him, Obama (knowingly or not) released this apparently clumsy forgery. One can, of course, make an argument that it was created so badly because only a very few people were involved. But we also think there could be more to it.
Alternatively, the idea is simply to sow confusion and dissent. Obama may be reelected, but the result will be an even more polarized society as many will have good reason to believe the president is not legally viable. This would certainly provide increased fodder for social disruption and a subsequent crackdown.
One grants, with this latter argument, that Obama is in a sense the ultimate disposable man. But we are not surprised that logic leads to this latter conclusion. In our view, many of those who work directly for the great central banking families are continually surprised that they can be world leaders one day and scapegoats the next. But that's how these people seem to work.
Conclusion: You make your deal. Don't be surprised by the consequences. Obama may be in for a rough ride. And his "fellow citizens" as well ....
Editor's Note: Feedbacker Marty, in the thread below, offers several scenarios including one along the lines that we mentioned, but also this thought-provoking one: "The forgery is intentionally of low quality, so that it will be found out. It will be shown that the original was lost, or destroyed inadvertently, by an incompetent clerk (probably one of a male Caucasian republican persuasion), and that he created the document to cover up his own incompetence. Thus the discoverer of the fraud, can be ridiculed in the eyes of the public, for being correct, and a nobody (a now wealthy nobody) can be scapegoated." In fact, "Sheriff Joe" indicated at the press conference that his office already had identified a "person of interest." And it's true that the Sheriff made a point several times that the forgery was not necessarily coordinated from the top down. In other words, President Barack Obama may have had nothing to do with it. Or, so, according to Marty, the scenario could play out ...

Thanks Calz_Avaretard !
The future scenario of a patsy who has created a fumbled document has crossed my mind as well. It may indeed be the case that they are stringing for time, with a number of decoys to bring them back into golden favour, whilst they continue their agenda. The birth certificate is tangible evidence but what about the case that is built by Anthony Basiago and Project Pegasus. Basiago and the other whistleblower who has come forwards - Brett Stillings?
Mars visitors Basiago and Stillings confirm Barack Obama traveled to Mars
By Alfred Lambremont Webre, JD, MEd
Two former participants in the CIA’s Mars visitation program of the early 1980’s have confirmed that U.S. President Barack H. Obama was enrolled in their Mars training class in 1980 and was among the young Americans from the program who they later encountered on the Martian surface after reaching Mars via “jump room.”
Andrew D. Basiago, 50, a lawyer in Washington State who served in DARPA’s time travel program Project Pegasus in the 1970’s, and fellow chrononaut William B. Stillings, 44, who was tapped by the Mars program for his technical genius, have publicly confirmed that Obama was enrolled in their Mars training class in 1980 and that each later encountered Obama during visits to rudimentary U.S. facilities on Mars that took place from 1981 to 1983.

Obama to AIPAC – No War, No Way, Just Promises
Press Lies About Key Areas Of President’s Talk
After hours of the usual AIPAC drivel, a presidential speech in the midst of an AIPAC spying trial, Obama made a plea for as much Jewish support, votes and money as possible, promising everything everything Israel demanded.
Then, in the end, he took it all all away, warning that “war talk” was irresponsible and that the US would seek a diplomatic solution.
What did he really say:
~ War is off the table
~ Sanctions have to be allowed to go forward
~ Loose talk about war is unacceptable
~ No attacks are planned or prepared for
In a talk about this today on live on Press TV’s International Service, Veterans Today’s Senior Editor, Gordon Duff, predicted this election year performance. Video will be included as soon as available.
In the midst of the controversy, Veterans Today published the transcript of an interview with former Nuclear Weapons expert Clinton Bastin, advisor to Veterans Today, who briefed both Netanyahu and President Obama on Iran’s nuclear weapons program as he had on India’s and North Koreas.
Bastin simply sites that IAEA inspectors have no weapons knowledge and seem to be tasked with misidentifying medical engineering programs that are not weapons oriented as something else. He calls them “political.”

Liar: Netanyahu’s Official Briefing-Iran Has No Nuclear Weapons Program
Briefed Netanhau, Top Nuclear Weapons Expert from Veterans Today
Iran Has a Nuclear Power, Not a Weapons Program
Clinton Bastin, a nuclear scientist, chemical engineer, and former Department of Energy official, was interviewed on the recent IAEA report on Iran’s nuclear program.
By Clinton Bastin for Jim W. Dean of Veterans Today
Clinton Bastin was responsible for the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission(AEC)’s reprocessing of plutonium, and plutonium scrap operations, plutonium-238 production, transuranic materials processing, tritium and deuterium production for weapons programs, radioactive waste management, and related activities at the Department of Energy’s Savannah River Plant in South Carolina.
He was also involved in the diplomatic side of U.S. international nuclear efforts, and he was president of the Federal Employees Union at the Department of Energy headquarters.
Upon his retirement, Bastin was recognized by the DOE in a Distinguished Career Service Award, as the U.S. authority on reprocessing and initiator of total quality management and partnering agreements.
Bastin served as a Marine in World War II and was an instructor in chemistry for the Marine Corps Institute.
He was interviewed on Nov. 18, 2011, by Marjorie Mazel Hecht, Managing Editor of 21st Century Science& Technology magazine.
Here is an edited transcript.
21st Century:
As a nuclear scientist and chemical engineer, who for decades directed U.S. programs for production and processing of nuclear materials and components for weapons, you have asserted that there is no weapons threat from Iran.
What is your assessment of Iran’s nuclear program?
Bastin: It’s a nuclear power program. Iran made a commitment to full use of nuclear power in 1970, ordered five nuclear plants from the United States, which promised, but later denied, reprocessing technology. This resulted in Iran’s cancelling the U.S. plants and ordering them from others, which were cancelled during the revolution.
But Iran has stayed committed to nuclear power. Russia is building Iran’s nuclear plant, which is ready tostart operation.
Because of the denial of reprocessing, Iran is reluctant to rely on others, so they wanted to enrich their own uranium, which is essential for nuclear power. That’s what they’re doing. Their reactor is a U.S.-type light water reactor. The Russians started building them successfully,and I think it’s fine.
I believe Pakistan provided the gas centrifuges, which have had problems. I was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission’s steering committee for gas centrifuge development, and I know that they are very sensitive, run at high power, and often crash. I suspect problems are related to that, and not computer hacking.
Iran also has a research reactor, Osiris, which was built by the French and uses 20% enriched uranium,
which they’ve been getting from others and would like to make themselves. Twenty percent is not weapons material. Weapons material is about 90%.David Albright has been claiming that you can make a weapon with it, but it would be incredibly difficult, and it’s not a rational thing to try.
Iran Cannot Make a Nuclear Weapon
21st Century: You mean he’s claiming that you can make a weapon with 20% enriched uranium?
Bastin: He said theoretically you could—but you could not. A gun-type weapon would require several tons of highly enriched uranium, and wouldn’t make sense. Anyway, that’s not a real concern under these circumstances.

I posted a whole thread dealing with those who within the black community who acknowledged later that the civil rights movement was a planned Marxist agenda to overthrow the country and continue to pave the way to make America into a socialist country. I could dig up the thread on that. This all plays into the Illuminati plan to destabilize the west to make us ready for the next stage of their plan to implement their New World Order which is nothing more than Babylon the great headed by their beloved prince who wants to be God, Lucifer.
This video deals with the way to affect a society and is instructive in understanding how we are being played by the right and the left who are both controlled by their overseers, the Illuminati.

You can catch up on some good stuff regarding what's coming in this thread as well:
http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?38644-How-it-will-fall-together-as-planned
I can't help but wonder how much we are being herded towards a planned goal. Yes, prove Breitbart is murdered, Obama is a liar, the bankers have destroyed us (Of course they've all run from the sinking ship as the rats they are), TSA is groping our mothers, aged parents, children, and young adults all while we get more and more angry, and now they will botch a false flag event I bet so we finally stand up to them? They must be amazed at how well their pacification system has worked and wonder where the soul of America is, I know the rest of the world wonders where our great spirit has gone to that stood and dumped tea into the water in Boston over unfair taxation. We are greedy, lazy cowards who feel isolated, hated, and unsupported. We are being told our Military is waiting for us to rise up, and yet I wonder how many are wondering if that is true. We cannot win by violent revolution, but we cannot win this if we continue doing what we have done. We will go silently into the control of the Illuminati or we will have to oppose them peacefully but forcefully by getting out there and demanding our rights, our money, and our minding our own business around the world. Dismantle the FED, CIA, EPA, AMA, FBI, and clean house from the top down through Independent council investigations, but we cannot allow the foxes to guard the hen house.
Is this whole Breitbart / Obama affair just one big psy op to play into their Hegelian dialectic?

I can´t believe this is true. I mean, the USA Gov has all kind of top notch high technology equipment! Why would someone make such amateurish mistakes while falsifying a document; a document for the current president of the USA!
I'm pretty sure it's true.
They are not trying to mislead all of us.
They are trying to mislead half of us, so the two halves can fight.
Given how dumbed down they've gotten us, the deceptions have to be pretty crude, to get some reasonable percentage to actually see through it, and thereby create a division amongst the people with substantial energy.
Hello, I think Paul is on it. Hasn't anyone been paying attention to the real "fake" gold certificates or is it the fake "real" gold certificates? Divide and conquer.

Former IAEA Inspector Sees 'Deja Vu' in Developing Case Against Iran Nuclear Program
March 5, 2012 • 10:47AM
In an exclusive interview scheduled to appear in the March 9 edition of Executive Intelligence Review, former Chief Inspector the the International Atomic Energy Association in Iraq, during the 2002-2003 period, Robert Kelley recounted the scandalous way in which incompetent accusations by on single low level analyst were used to provoke the war against Iraq, and argued that the exact same method was being used today to justify war against the nation of Iran.
"When a country goes to war as the U.S. did in 2003 with disastrous results, there should be some lessons-learned on the table," Kelley told EIR's Michele Steinberg. "It would appear there are no lessons-learned being used in the current hysteria. The most important is peer review. The accusations leveled against Iraq in the nuclear area in 2003 were largely from the mouth of one single low level analyst in the U.S. He got far outside his competence and made accusations that were shredded in peer reviews by far more competent people, yet his veiw bubbled to the top because the peers were muzzled and his scary message was more welcome in high circles. The November 2012 IAEA Board Report [on Iran] looks like deja vu."
"....I think the Board of Governors should demand an investigation of the report and an independent review, line by line, of where that information was coming from, and why it was spun so heavily to one side."
Kelley has spoken out consistently against the current campaign, which is using the IAEA reports as evidence, against Iran. On Feb. 21, he joined with Dr. Hans Blix, the former Director General of the IAEA, and former chief of United Nations inspection commission, UNMOVIC, at the invitation of the National Iranian American Council (NIAC). Speaking to the standing room only audience of Congressional staffers, diplomats, political officials, journalists, and activists, the two experts made clear that there is no evidence that Iran has a nuclear weapon, or a nuclear weapons program, and that war against Iran is unnecessary and will be a disaster for the region and the world. Both support the immediate return to diplomatic talks between Iran and concerned parties, especially, the United States.
Earlier, in a January 11, 2012 Bloomberg article entitled, "Nuclear Arms Charge Against Iran Is No Slam Dunk," Kelley, a nuclear engineer with over 30 years of experience in the field questioned the evidence presented in the November 2011 IAEA report on Iran.
In the EIR interview, Kelley provides an inside view of how the fraud of 2003 was conducted, and how this process is being replicated today. His evaluation is must reading for those who wish to avoid the danger of a thermonuclear world war III, which Lyndon LaRouche has warned is the intention of the British Empire.
A prepublication copy of the interview will be made available in the coming days.

I must say some really thought provolking comments on this thread, One of Breibarts exposures was on the govt funded Acorn showing how they were exposing young girls into prostitution and how acorn was showing them the ropes and how to get away with it. Acorn was then defunded after that video from Breibart. There was a postive outcome to his work.
This last election I was a campaign manager for a guy that was running for congress on a federal level , I felt it was time to step up myself and I did. My candidate was running as an independent. He stated over and over during debates that this entire polical system is a game of blame every 2 years and nothing is getting accomplished at all . We havn't even had a budget proposed on spending for the last 3 years either here in the states. I remember at the debates when my guy would be just ripping on both parties and all of the PAC money they were taking and my guys most famous line " All of you in both parties are bought and paid for before you even get into office". Oh yes candidates from both parties during the debates just wanted to crawl into a hole as they were being called out upon. My guy didn't get elected but it was one hell of ride, we should have done a documentary from start to finish to show just exactly how the system is beyond repair at this point, but perhaps one day as I tend to believe in people as when things are at their very worst , we seem to bring out our very best in ourselfs. I truly do believe we are ascending in many ways and I see that from many on this particular thread.

In lieu of the "system" how can we not assume he was threatened like that???
My own personal opionion (worth nothing) is that nothing coming from a president since Kennedy came from an actual president's intention.
There is simply no way for us ... the common folk ... to know if there is any actual integrity within the man or not. Those that suggest there is say he needs to play the game to survive until he plays his hand. Who knows???

But CA, how do any of us know that he was threatened like that? We don't. Someone assumed it. No one told him to constantly lie or to steal our money....IMO he's not one of the good guys.... Obama was specifically chosen,groomed,and financed by the british oligarchy, just like they did with Hitler, that today controls everywhere on earth in conjunction with the Roman Vatican except for Russia and China. His personality is like that of Emperor Nero, and through Obama the br.ol. now has access to the nuclear warheads. Which ultimately br.ol. wants to force Russia and China into destroying themselves and joining one world monetary system, by way of starting war in Iran & Syria, knowing they are alighned and working to protect each other from hostile british oligarchy takeover. Bottom line is the oligarchy would rather have ww3, then to admit the monetary system is a failure and give up control of something already dead and rotting away quickly. It's good to be able to identify your enemys and know their methods of deception.

You can catch up on some good stuff regarding what's coming in this thread as well:
http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?38644-How-it-will-fall-together-as-planned
I can't help but wonder how much we are being herded towards a planned goal. Yes, prove Breitbart is murdered, Obama is a liar, the bankers have destroyed us (Of course they've all run from the sinking ship as the rats they are), TSA is groping our mothers, aged parents, children, and young adults all while we get more and more angry, and now they will botch a false flag event I bet so we finally stand up to them? They must be amazed at how well their pacification system has worked and wonder where the soul of America is, I know the rest of the world wonders where our great spirit has gone to that stood and dumped tea into the water in Boston over unfair taxation. We are greedy, lazy cowards who feel isolated, hated, and unsupported. We are being told our Military is waiting for us to rise up, and yet I wonder how many are wondering if that is true. We cannot win by violent revolution, but we cannot win this if we continue doing what we have done. We will go silently into the control of the Illuminati or we will have to oppose them peacefully but forcefully by getting out there and demanding our rights, our money, and our minding our own business around the world. Dismantle the FED, CIA, EPA, AMA, FBI, and clean house from the top down through Independent council investigations, but we cannot allow the foxes to guard the hen house.
Is this whole Breitbart / Obama affair just one big psy op to play into their Hegelian dialectic?
I have trouble drawing any conclusion but this; I find it helps if you remember that these people have some ability/desire to plan a 10,000 year (or more) plan, who here even knows for sure what they are doing in a month (I have trouble planning for the coming weekend...).
Studying the World Trade Towers & their eventual destruction on 9/11 (which allowed the passing of the Patriot act after many attempts, OKC bombing, the original WTC bombing etc..) this gives just a HINT at how tenacious these plans are.. waiting 10-20 years to accomplish something is "no sweat" apparently (though when you analogize the government to a ratchet, once it clicks in place it NEVER goes back it makes sense that waiting is more prudent)
not to sway the conversation any more off topic, but here is a PERFECT example of what we are speaking of.. Look at how Orgone was suppressed and Wilhelm Reich destroyed for his work:
tgYIVM_Qm8g
something that is seemingly "so good" and does ZERO harm to anyone (as far as we know) is viciously suppressed; things like this get my attention quickly; we cannot forget that it is very likely that we are facing something that thinks in ways we do not & all these little clues (this thread included) are as much as we get to figure it out.
I must say some really thought provolking comments on this thread, One of Breibarts exposures was on the govt funded Acorn showing how they were exposing young girls into prostitution and how acorn was showing them the ropes and how to get away with it. Acorn was then defunded after that video from Breibart. There was a postive outcome to his work.
But what was REALLY acomplished? I don't hold "left" views, but I (assume) that the acorn thing did nothing to "obama's image" for them, but it did everything for the right (more divide and conqure, more hegelian dialect).

Hawaii official now swears: No Obama birth certificate
Signs affidavit declaring long-form, hospital-generated document absent
Published: 01/24/2011 at 8:48 PM
by Jerome R. Corsi
Former Hawaii elections clerk Tim Adams has now signed an affidavit swearing he was told by his supervisors in Hawaii that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Barack Obama Jr. in Hawaii and that neither Queens Medical Center nor Kapi’olani Medical Center in Honolulu had any record of Obama having been born in their medical facilities.
Adams was employed at the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division from May 2008 through September 2008.
His position was senior elections clerk, overseeing a group of 50 to 60 employees responsible for verifying the identity of voters at the Absentee Ballot Office. It was in this capacity that Adams became aware of the search for Obama’s birth-certificate records.
See the movie Obama does not want you to see: Own the DVD that probes this unprecedented presidential-eligibility mystery!
“During the course of my employment,” Adams swears in the affidavit (viewable in full as part 1 and part 2), “I became aware that many requests were being made to the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division, the Hawaii Office of Elections, and the Hawaii Department of Health from around the country to obtain a copy of then-Senator Barack Obama’s long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate.”
As he inquired about the birth certificate, he says, his supervisors told him that the records were not on file at the Hawaii Department of Health.
“Senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division told me on multiple occasions that no Hawaii long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Senator Obama in the Hawaii Department of Health,” Adams’ affidavit reads, “and there was no record that any such document had ever been on file in the Hawaii Department of Health or any other branch or department of the Hawaii government.”
In a recorded telephone interview, Adams told WND that it was common knowledge among election officials where he worked that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate could be found at the Hawaii Department of Health.
“My supervisor came and told me, ‘Of course, there’s no birth certificate. What? You stupid,’” Adams said. “She usually spoke well, but in saying this she reverted to a Hawaiian dialect. I really didn’t know how to respond to that. She said it and just walked off. She was quite a powerful lady.”
Moreover, Adams was told that neither Queens Memorial Hospital nor Kapi’olani Medical Center had any records of Obama’s birth at their medical facilities: “Senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division further told me on multiple occasions that Hawaii State government officials had made inquires about Sen. Obama’s birth records to officials at Queens Medical Center and Kapi’olani Medical Center in Honolulu and that neither hospital had any record of Senator Obama having been born there, even though Governor Abercrombie is now asserting and various Hawaii government officials continue to assert Barack Obama Jr. was born at Kapi’olani Medical Center on Aug. 4, 1961.”
“We called the two hospitals in Honolulu: Queens and Kapi’olani,” Adams stressed. “Neither of them have any records that Barack Obama was born there.”
In 2009, WND documented that Obama and his supporters had first claimed he was born at Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, before the story changed to Kapi’olani Medical Center in Honolulu.
After WND’s report on the two conflicting hospitals, online news sites including the United Press International and Snopes.com scrubbed their websites to eliminate any reference to Queens Medical Center, substituting instead that Obama was born at Kapi’olani Medical Center without explaining the discrepancy or the correction.
In 2010, then-candidate for governor Neil Abercrombie was involved in an Obama birth controversy when he read a letter at a Kapi’olani Medical Center centennial dinner in Honolulu that supposedly was authored by President Obama, claiming Kapi’olani as his birth hospital.
As WND reported, the letter read by Abercrombie and initially displayed on the Kapi’olani website turned out to be a computer-created likeness of a letter using HTML code, the building blocks of Internet websites, not an actual paper letter.
The White House has still not confirmed it wrote or sent the letter.
Moreover, Adams claims, the Hawaii government was engaged in a cover-up designed to tell the American public through the Obama-supporting mainstream media that Obama was born in Hawaii, even though no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Obama could be found on record in the Hawaii Department of Health.
In the affidavit Adams swears, “During the course of my employment, I came to understand that for political reasons, various officials in the government of Hawaii, including then-Governor Linda Lingle and various officials of the Hawaii Department of Health, including Dr. Chiyome Fukino, the director of the Hawaii Department of Health, were making representations that Senator Obama was born in Hawaii, even though no government official in Hawaii could find a long-form birth certificate for Senator Obama that had been issued by a Hawaii hospital at the time of his birth.”
Adams further swears his supervisors told him to quit asking about Obama’s birth records.
“During the course of my employment,” Adams states in the affidavit, “I was told by senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division to stop inquiring about Senator Obama’s Hawaii birth records, even though it was common knowledge among my fellow employees that no Hawaii long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Senator Obama.”
“I can go get my long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate,” Adams told WND. “And so I don’t understand, this whole controversy should have been settled three or four years ago in about five minutes.”

Who was Obama before becoming president, I mean, did he have a solid political history?
Obama served six years in the Illinois state senate (1997 to 2004) and was in his first term as US Senator for Illinois when he ran for Presidency (running during 2007, winning election in Nov 2007, to begin serving Jan 2008).
He was not particular distinguished (in my view) in either capacity. His history prior to that claims degrees from Columbia University and Harvard Law School ... though there are massive gaps in the record ... it's not clear to me where he was prior to 1997.
No ... not a solid political history.
Rather it is a demonstration of how readily the powers that be can install their preferred candidate into the White House, regardless of the candidate's background.
Thanks Paul,
That´s exactly what I had in mind.
How stupid is this Obama thing since the beginning.
A man comes from nowhere, with no significant political history, and is elected president of the most powerful nation in the world.
This just proves how easily people can be manipulated by the media.
The media have full control over who is elected or not. They´re the ones who choose the political destiny of your nation, not you.
This is not democracy.

More I think about it, the division this has created is spot on. I agree with Paul as well. I had to extricate myself from a very uncomfortable conversation two days ago that took place on my facebook wall, which is usually a jolly place to go, after I posted the video of Arpaio´s announcement. I did not realise how fervent the belief is in people in my own circles who, I discovered very quickly are rabid Obama lovers, and which I never knew. They went for me like two heat seeking missiles and were pretty blunt with me, calling the whole birth certificate thing a total wind up, a load of ****e, and basically a desperate attempt backed by a racist political party. And these ´friends´:angry::angry:they are not even American! Naive of me maybe, to air this on facebook but I soon realised that I had stepped into a minefield. I was framed publicly as utterly irresponsible and stupid. Pick your forums eh? LOL Anybody else experience this kind of reaction?
They are not trying to mislead all of us.
They are trying to mislead half of us, so the two halves can fight.
Given how dumbed down they've gotten us, the deceptions have to be pretty crude, to get some reasonable percentage to actually see through it, and thereby create a division amongst the people with substantial energy.

People have been told that obama is not a natural born citizen but they just don't
care. They say things like, we should be concentrating on our economy instead of trying
to get rid of obama. What they refuse to believe is that obama is making things worse
on purpose. People just want to close their eyes and act like nothing is wrong and live

It flabbergasted me that issues of incredible important like government backing of the banksters, the suppression of clean technologies and the perpetuation of the war machine - were not good enough points to flipping consider.
How can we at the grassroots level help people wake up? It is their vote that will decide who goes back in. Actually, go past doing an election. Wake up enough to pull the whole system down and start again.
What do people like Ron Paul and his supporters think? Do they really know what they are up against?

it helps to know that a strongly held belief, when challanged triggers a "reptilian brain" response of FIGHT FLIGHT or FREEZE... people become physically narrow minded as their bodies experience this, if you look back to "heated" arguments you've had in the past can you see this? the elivated heart rate, the agitation, maybe sweaty palms?.. its very clear with men as we react stronger than women (because we are the HUNTER & traditionally needed to react strongly to stay alive); if they are not masters of their own emotions (few people are) then you will run into this confrontation over and over with no real resolution or forward movement. What you describe with your "facebook" confrontation is a perfect example of this, there is NO logic to the responses you got, just "feeling" and to somone working from a rational base (as you seem to be) it is confusing (is it not?).

Even in those days he had 'the gift of the gab' >>>>
Breitbart's mystery tapes on Obama released
Video footage of President Obama during his college years at Harvard University was intentionally suppressed by news media and academia during the 2008 presidential campaign in order to hide Obama’s connections with radical leftists, according to the editors of Breitbart.com, the website of late conservative activist Andrew Breitbart.
Tapes of Obama at Harvard in 1991 have now been posted online and aired on the Fox News Channel, and they show then-student Obama speaking warmly on behalf of a leftist professor, Derrick Bell.
“Open up your hearts and your minds to the words of Professor Derrick Bell,” Obama says during his speech before hugging him.
The embrace between the pair had been edited out of a video that was released earlier in the day by Buzzfeed. (Video of the embrace can be seen here.)
“This is just the beginning. And this video is a smoking gun showing that Barack Obama not only associated with radicals, he was their advocate,” said Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro.
Referring to Professor Bell, Shapiro explained, “This is a close associate of [controversial Obama Rev.] Jeremiah Wright, a man who was quoted by Jeremiah Wright regularly. This is a man who posited that the civil rights movement was too moderate because it accepted the status quo, and believed that the entire legal and constitutional system had to be transformed in radical fashion. This is a man so extreme that, as we’ve reported, he wrote a story in 1993 in which he posited that white Americans would sell black Americans into slavery to aliens to relieve the national debt, and that Jews would go along with it.”
Shapiro says the original video “was spliced and diced by the media to avoid showing just how close Obama was to Bell. More than that, a close associate of the Obama campaign, Harvard Law School’s Professor Charles Ogletree, admitted on our exclusive tape, ‘We hid this throughout the 2008 campaign. I don’t care if they find it now.’”
Portions of the tape had apparently been aired on PBS during the campaign four years ago, but without the audio of Obama’s statements and without video of Obama’s embrace of Bell.
“The media cover-up was very real. Ogletree’s cover-up was very real,” Shapiro said.
The videos were broadcast tonight on “Hannity” on Fox News, where columnists Juan Williams and Michelle Malkin were asked to weigh in on their content. (Video of “Hannity” can be seen here.)
“I thought this was going to be so much more,” said Williams. “I thought it was going to be a smoking gun. … But it really didn’t come to much.”
Malkin disagreed vehemently.
“I reject this idea that we should just shrug our shoulders and buy the PBS/Buzzfeed line that ‘There’s nothing new here.’ Stop it!” Malkin exclaimed.
“This is news. They didn’t want to talk about it then, and they don’t want to talk about it now. Do you think it’s a coincidence of timing that Barack Obama has now hired people to put out some 17-minute documentary? This is all about the Alinskyite control of who tells the story.”
Breitbart editors say today’s release was just the beginning.
“We’ve got plenty more and a lot will be released next week,” Shapiro said.
WND reported earlier that Andrew Breitbart had been investigating Obama just before the activist’s sudden death March 1, which is being probed by a coronor.
He told a crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington he had obtained videos of Obama from the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee’s college days.
“I’ve got videos, by the way. This election we’re going to vet him. I’ve got videos – this election we’re going to vet him – from his college days to show you why … racial division and class warfare are central to what hope and change was sold in 2008,” Breitbart told CPAC.
He said the videos would reveal Obama during a time when he was meeting a “bunch of silver ponytails” – referring to Weather Underground terror group members Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
It was in the couple’s Chicago home that Obama’s political career reportedly was launched, and his ties to the two run deep. There’s been a solid argument made that Ayers ghost-wrote Obama’s highly acclaimed memoir, “Dreams from My Father.”
The possibility of videos producing revelations about Obama’s college days is significant, as Obama has carefully kept concealed evidence about his life during the time he reportedly attended Occidental College in California and later two East Coast schools.
A lawsuit at one point obtained an order for Occidental to reveal Obama’s student records.

Interest in the issue of Obama’s eligibility skyrocketed recently when an investigative team commission by Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz., said there is probable cause that the document released by the White House last year as President Obama’s birth certificate is a computer-generated forgery.
At a news conference, lead investigator Mike Zullo said his team believes the Hawaii Department of Health has engaged in a systematic effort to hide from public inspection any original 1961 birth records it may have in its possession.
“Officers of the Hawaii Department of Health and various elected Hawaiian public officials may have intentionally obscured 1961 birth records and procedures to avoid having to release to public inspection and to the examination of court-authorized forensic examiners any original Obama 1961 birth records the Hawaii Department of Health may or may not have,” Zullo said.

Well the issue does not distract me... I guess I'll have to wait for the more to come next week. Certainly does not seem enough to get one murdered over.
And I really have no support for Obama at all, that's just my call.
If I had been slightly older I would have been 'associating with radicals' then too. At least back then a segment of the population was aware of the need for major change and willing to become radical about it. Now so many just sleep as our freedoms are voted and signing-statement-ed away.
Of course, once they got Obama in, the Military-Industrial-Corporate-Security complex asserted total control over him, as they always do, and he has been an excellent servant for them.
But it really didn’t come to much.”

Breitbart's mystery tapes on Obama released
Video footage of President Obama during his college years at Harvard University was intentionally suppressed by news media and academia during the 2008 presidential campaign in order to hide Obama’s connections with radical leftists, according to the editors of Breitbart.com, the website of late conservative activist Andrew Breitbart.
Tapes of Obama at Harvard in 1991 have now been posted online and aired on the Fox News Channel, and they show then-student Obama speaking warmly on behalf of a leftist professor, Derrick Bell.
“Open up your hearts and your minds to the words of Professor Derrick Bell,” Obama says during his speech before hugging him.
The embrace between the pair had been edited out of a video that was released earlier in the day by Buzzfeed. (Video of the embrace can be seen here.)
“This is just the beginning. And this video is a smoking gun showing that Barack Obama not only associated with radicals, he was their advocate,” said Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro.
Referring to Professor Bell, Shapiro explained, “This is a close associate of [controversial Obama Rev.] Jeremiah Wright, a man who was quoted by Jeremiah Wright regularly. This is a man who posited that the civil rights movement was too moderate because it accepted the status quo, and believed that the entire legal and constitutional system had to be transformed in radical fashion. This is a man so extreme that, as we’ve reported, he wrote a story in 1993 in which he posited that white Americans would sell black Americans into slavery to aliens to relieve the national debt, and that Jews would go along with it.”
Shapiro says the original video “was spliced and diced by the media to avoid showing just how close Obama was to Bell. More than that, a close associate of the Obama campaign, Harvard Law School’s Professor Charles Ogletree, admitted on our exclusive tape, ‘We hid this throughout the 2008 campaign. I don’t care if they find it now.’”
Portions of the tape had apparently been aired on PBS during the campaign four years ago, but without the audio of Obama’s statements and without video of Obama’s embrace of Bell.
“The media cover-up was very real. Ogletree’s cover-up was very real,” Shapiro said.
The videos were broadcast tonight on “Hannity” on Fox News, where columnists Juan Williams and Michelle Malkin were asked to weigh in on their content. (Video of “Hannity” can be seen here.)
“I thought this was going to be so much more,” said Williams. “I thought it was going to be a smoking gun. … But it really didn’t come to much.”
Malkin disagreed vehemently.
“I reject this idea that we should just shrug our shoulders and buy the PBS/Buzzfeed line that ‘There’s nothing new here.’ Stop it!” Malkin exclaimed.
“This is news. They didn’t want to talk about it then, and they don’t want to talk about it now. Do you think it’s a coincidence of timing that Barack Obama has now hired people to put out some 17-minute documentary? This is all about the Alinskyite control of who tells the story.”
Breitbart editors say today’s release was just the beginning.
“We’ve got plenty more and a lot will be released next week,” Shapiro said.
WND reported earlier that Andrew Breitbart had been investigating Obama just before the activist’s sudden death March 1, which is being probed by a coronor.
He told a crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington he had obtained videos of Obama from the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee’s college days.
“I’ve got videos, by the way. This election we’re going to vet him. I’ve got videos – this election we’re going to vet him – from his college days to show you why … racial division and class warfare are central to what hope and change was sold in 2008,” Breitbart told CPAC.
He said the videos would reveal Obama during a time when he was meeting a “bunch of silver ponytails” – referring to Weather Underground terror group members Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
It was in the couple’s Chicago home that Obama’s political career reportedly was launched, and his ties to the two run deep. There’s been a solid argument made that Ayers ghost-wrote Obama’s highly acclaimed memoir, “Dreams from My Father.”
The possibility of videos producing revelations about Obama’s college days is significant, as Obama has carefully kept concealed evidence about his life during the time he reportedly attended Occidental College in California and later two East Coast schools.
A lawsuit at one point obtained an order for Occidental to reveal Obama’s student records. The aim was to find out whether he obtained aid or assistance as a foreign student, lending credibility to the argument that he does not qualify to be president under the Constitution’s “natural-born citizen” requirement.

Ok now that ive seen the video i feel silly for hoping that this would be a game changer. Who cares if obama associates with "radicals"?! He signed the ndaa bil, assassinated an american citizen and started more wars! This breitbart video is a HUGE distraction from issues that actually DO matter. Obama is bad news and a horrible president but this video has nothing to do with the reasons WHY he is a horrible president.

1. The birth certificate lists his father's race as African, not African-American. Since the form did not give options there was no requirement to describe an African as Negro. His father was African, NOT Negro.
2. Africans have always called Kenya just that. In Africa we have never used colonial names when referring to our countries.
3. Actually the birth certificate names the hospital as Kapiolani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital, which it was called from 1931 until about 1978 I think.
My view is that it is a genuine birth certificate that was photocopied from a folder (without removing it from the folder), hence the obvious marks on the left of the form, and then placed on a background of green paper and one document was created using the wizardry of layers in a programme like Adobe InDesign 5. The document created was then stamped, signed and dated. Why go to all that effort? Maybe simply because it looks more smart and official than a photocopy, especially if the document is required by the President and is going to be on public display.

The labelling in American politics is crazy. People classed as radicals would be seen as right of centre here in Europe. Allowing for the fact that all political labels have been made completely meaningless, some Avalonians would be surprised to learn that they hold pretty radical views, in many ways way off into the infra-left of the political spectrum.
I recall seeing a while back on this forum some videos about young Spaniards (not so young now) rebuilding whole villages and living together in a totally unconventional way. If there is a word for this kind of society that many of us would like to belong to, it is communism – obviously not, I hasten to add, comparable in the slightest to any political system past or present actually known by that name, but in the original sense of the world.
I remember as a small child asking what the word meant and on being told, feeling appalled that such a noble ideal should be treated as anathema.
I still find it scandalous that in the dictionary, a single word can be defined, with a small c, as ‘a system in which goods are held in common and are available to all as needed’, and with a capital C, ‘a totalitarian system of government in which a single party controls state-owned means of production’.
Language as a means of production is always first in line for totalitarian control.
So, is Obama a radical? God, I hope so!

Those videos have significance. If the above video was the best Breitbart could do to discredit O'Bomber, he wasn't trying very hard. In fact, it seems more like phony opposition.

This whole thing is nothing but right-wing hate propaganda, full of distortions, racial undertones and outright lies. It's a distraction aimed at those who are easily distracted by bright shiny objects and the willfully mis-informed. Brietbart was a graduate with honors from the "School of Yellow Journalism" who kept great company with people like Hannity. Anyone saying he was murdered over these tapes is delusional...there was nothing there, Obama didn't do anything wrong. Listen to the Soledad Obrien interview below,...his whole thing is utterly laughable, the right wing has made something out of nothing just to keep people distracted while they continue to Lie, cheat and steal. They don't have a candidate that can beat Obama so they're all piling on the crazy train...the lunatics have taken over the asylum in the right wing media.
But don't believe me...here's a short article from Randy Rhodes homework with a whole page full of links to the articles and video's listed below to help people sort through this mess. She did a great job of pulling ALL THE FACTS TOGETHER to help put this mess to bed.

Breitbart’s supposedly shocking 1991 video of Obama has been unleashed. It turns out that there’s no need for a leash. This little puppy isn’t going to bite anybody. In the video, Obama is seen speaking on behalf of granting tenure to more minority and female professors at Harvard. Anybody who could be even remotely disturbed by this video is already severely disturbed. Unfortunately, that includes a sizeable chunk of the rightwing.
There is absolutely nothing in this video of a young Barack Obama that is embarrassing to Obama. Nothing! Even his clothing and haircut are tasteful. How many of us can say that about pictures of ourselves at that age? I mean really, it was the early 90’s. Most of the kids in America were wearing Nirvana-inspired flannel shirts, and the other ones were wearing harem pants like MC Hammer. This tape is an embarrassment, alright—it’s an embarrassment to anyone who would think this kind of thing would be an embarrassment. If this is Andrew Breitbart’s posthumous legacy, it’s almost as pathetic as the stuff he did when he was alive.

Yea, he died of a heart attack. Men die of those quite often. His own father stated that he had one just last year. Sometimes what is reported isn't a cover-up. Sometimes a person that lives in anger succombs to what that creates.
But what did this release do? It brought forth a video showing a student in a law school that had little diversity, welcoming a faculty member who supported their efforts to inform the school that they need more diversity.
So this professor had some radical ideas right? But basically anything that is different from the "status quo" is considered radical.
Let us not forget that the people that support this think it is radical for everyone in the "Best country in the World" to have basic healthcare.

How does this tie into the Breitbart story? Because the major media will never give equal airplay to facts about Obama, so for all the Obama kool aid drinking supporters, just remember that Obama said a lot of things in his 08 campaign about Bush that are actually worse under Obama. If you supported Clinton/Gore and thought this was a great speech, worthy of throwing out the sitting President, then it should be just as true today and worthy of throwing out the current sitting President. Oh, and just as a reminder, Bush isn't the President now, so please stop blaming Bush for the economy and everything else wrong with the world.

The national security state needs a boogeyman to keep the money flowing
by Thomas Drake and Matthew Harwood
http://www.globalresearch.ca/coverStoryPictures2/29678.jpg
Global Research, March 9, 2012
Thomas Drake, the whistle-blower whom the Obama administration tried and failed to prosecute for leaking information about waste, fraud and abuse at the National Security Agency, now works at an Apple store in Maryland. In an interview with Salon, Drake laughed about the time heconfronted Attorney General Eric Holder at his store while Holder perused the gadgetry on display with his security detail around him. When Drake started asking Holder questions about his case, America’s chief law enforcement officer turned and fled the store.
But the humor drained away quickly from Drake’s thin and tired face as he recounted his ordeal since 2010 when federal prosecutors charged him with violating the Espionage Act for retaining classified information they believed he would pass on to then Baltimore Sun reporter Siobhan Gorman. While Drake never disclosed classified information, he did pass on unclassified information to Gorman revealing that the NSA had wasted billions of taxpayers’ dollars on Trailblazer, a contractor-heavy intelligence software program that failed to find terrorist threats in the tsunami of digital data the agency was sucking up globally — and sometimes unconstitutionally. While Trailblazer burned through cash, in the process enriching many NSA employees turned contractors, Drake found that another software program named ThinThread had already met the core requirements of a federal acquisition regulation that governed the proposed system at a sliver of the cost, all while protecting American civil liberties at the code level. The NSA leadership, however, had already bet their careers on Trailblazer. So Drake blew the whistle, first to Congress, then to the Department of Defense Inspector General’s Office, and finally, and fatefully, to Gorman.
Last June, the government’s case collapsed. On the eve of trial, all 10 counts were dropped. In a Kafkaesque turn of events, Drake actually helped the government find a misdemeanor to charge him with — exceeding authorized use of an NSA computer — so federal prosecutors could save face. Once facing 35 years behind bars, Drake pled guilty to the misdemeanor charge and was sentenced to one year of probation and 240 hours of community service, what he sardonically calls “his penance.”
But his legal battles haven’t ended. Currently, Drake, along with the four other whistle-blowers he worked with to expose NSA waste, fraud and abuse, are fighting to get their property back that the FBI confiscated during its criminal investigations. Once a registered Republican and now a self-described “free-speech absolutist,” Drake describes the NSA as a rogue agency that operates in a black box that the public cannot penetrate.
Drake, along with his attorney Jesselyn Radack of the Government Accountability Project, sat down for a three-hour interview with Salon. Here are some excerpts from our conversation.
Matthew Harwood: What happens at a place like the NSA when they don’t trust you anymore?
I blew the whistle literally on Trailblazer during that 2003-2005 time frame. That led to a whole series of what I will call the retaliation, reprisal and retribution by a thousand cuts, bureaucratic and administrative, where they slowly take you away from your primary responsibilities. They isolate you so you increasingly have less and less of a role to play, even though I was a senior executive in the government.
It’s like Milton out of “Office Space.” You’re put in the basement in a cubicle away from everyone.
You talk about Milton in the basement with his stapler. That’s effectively what happened. You are uninvited from certain kinds of meetings. You end up having certain key functions reassigned to even your own staff members or informed that the funding that you had been receiving, well, you know we don’t need to do that anymore.
In your opinion, is it in the hope that you resign?
Yeah, part of it is the isolation. A bureaucracy can really create this artificial desert, but the desert is real. And in essence, what happens is that they’re taking away the meaning and purpose for who you are when at work. Given that work for so many people is their identity, it attempts to fragment your identity. If you fragment that identity enough, then the hope is you’ll just pack up and take your bag somewhere else. And good riddance. I remember when they realized that I was a threat. The white blood cells were kicking in big time.
It sounds like some dystopian corporate environment but in an absurd, petty way.
You talk about the dark side of Dilbert; they were literally manufacturing incidents that never occurred. That’s the level at which they excel. The distrust within this dystopia of each other: people come into work looking to make someone else’s life bad and they’re deriving great pleasure from the psychological pain they’re inflicting bureaucratically on one another. What does that tell you?
Did you lose your pension?
I was within five-and-a-half years of retirement based on a combination of my military and government time, both CIA and NSA. That’s not there. I have what’s called a thrift savings plan, but I had to take half of that money out. You talk about the price you pay. Most people don’t know it’s significant. I spent close to $100,000 on attorney fees plus expenses. I have literally given up hundreds of thousands of dollars and a government pension that would have been worth close to a million dollars.
Would you still blow the whistle if you knew what you know now?
Yes. There are a few things I would have done differently, though. I would not have spoken to the FBI. I knew that in speaking with them that something could be used against me. I was read my Miranda rights, but I waved them to cooperate, but to report crimes: misdemeanors, illegalities, management malfeasance, program fraud, waste and abuse. I would have immediately had an attorney, but that’s in hindsight.
Another regret: I would have gone public before indictment. Remember, once they indict you’re already in a severely negative place. But the last place I would have shared any information with is WikiLeaks, and yet it is a viable internationally based alternative for getting the truth out. This is partly why Manning is in the hot water because he’s not going through, allegedly, an American citizen; he’s going somewhere else. And it’s not the enemy, let’s get that straight right off the bat, but he’s going to an organization that’s non-U.S.-based, non-U.S. citizen.
And I never would have gone to NSA as a senior executive. I would have stayed a contractor. I would have just made money. But, see, it’s easy to say that. And there are no regrets because I have to live with the integrity of who I am. I recognize that it’s a very lonely space as a whistle-blower, how incredibly isolating it is. And how you keep what you know because of the risks that are involved, recognizing you’re in a much bigger system. You end up keeping the truth from those who you think you could share it with. That includes close family members because you don’t want them implicated. You don’t want them to be viewed as an accessory. My spouse, because she works as an NSA contractor, was interrogated/interviewed by the FBI for a couple of hours. She had no knowledge of any of the specifics of the cooperation I had with DoD. Or the fact that I had contact with a reporter. They were betting that in terms of sitting one pillow next to another that you would share.
[B]In your opinion, is Bradley Manning a whistle-blower?
There is also a lot of what I call false flag arguments with Manning. It took incredible courage, incredible risk. He ended up listening to his conscience. All the other stuff you hear about is a red herring. All the other stuff is personal and it’s misdirection. Remember, the government uses the court of public opinion, just as much if not more so than whistle-blowers. The advantage they had, in my case, remember, I was way behind the 8-ball. In essence they already made like six moves in chess, before I could make a move at all. They already had the upper hand. They had the narrative. They had the charges. They had painted me as a traitor. That I had violated my oath. That I had betrayed my country.
The only defense you have then is the truth.
But what if it’s not sufficient? The truth was always on my side. I knew the truth. It’s one of the advantages of the truth; you don’t have to make up a story. You just tell the truth. I never had to think about what to say, I just said it.
You talk regularly about how a feeding frenzy occurred throughout the U.S. security establishment and its defense contractors after Congress starting writing blank checks in an effort to prevent another 9/11. A decade later, are we at a place now then where they have to manufacture threats to keep the money flowing?
You have to persist the threat. You have to find another existential reason why this is indefinite. The only way to do that is the boogeyman. You have to paint that.
Whether that’s Iran or homegrown terrorists or China?
Doesn’t matter, and especially when you have less understanding about it. Radically different cultures. Radically different environments. We don’t learn very well, except where it’s reflexively us. We have a tendency to project ourselves onto others. So yes, you have to manufacture if you’re making that kind of money. The national security state became a growth industry — huge redistribution of wealth. I had people coming to me: “Tom, you have to get out. The money is unbelievable. You can be a millionaire.”
Literally the idea is after 9/11, you could retire, exit the door, and then walk back in a week later as a contractor making way more money.
That’s correct. Some people did. We’re talking lots of money. The revolving door is an understatement. The number of millionaires made at NSA, one of these open dark secrets, is phenomenal. I had very senior defense contractors attempting to compromise me, co-opt me. “Tom, you have all this access now. Sheesh. We could bring you over. You could lead our NSA business office.”
Advanced software, like what Palantir sells, boasts that it can establish connections between individuals that a human investigator or analyst would find impossible. Can’t that be reverse engineered to track down whistle-blowers?
Yes, by the very means by which you can detect patterns. What is true about technology like ThinThread or Palantir Government is the real potential for irresponsible abuse in secret and targeting those who are deemed as trouble, dissenters in government or industry – using the very technology designed for intelligence indications and warning about real threats, and then using it against internal threats like whistle-blowing and profiling their activities for identification and punishment.
They certainly did it with me using similar kinds of monitoring technology. I recognize that I was a template. I was profiled. There was no question. And part of the profiling is what was the activity set that identifies whistle-blowers. But remember, part of this requires persistent surveillance electronically. I was electronically surveilled 15 ways to Sunday. And I was physically surveilled. My car was searched, in terms of patterns, far more frequently than I would have expected. And I realized what was happening but I couldn’t say anything. They made no bones about that fact and part of it is intimidation. It’s sending the message: “We know what you’re up to.”
Jesselyn Radack: Which brings us back to the dark ages. Pay in cash. Meet in person in obscure locations. You adopt drug dealer tactics. You adopt the tactics of high-level criminals.
But by doing that, guess what you establish: you’re suspicious. And see isn’t that a Catch-22. But there is a defense to this. Forget all the furtiveness. Forget all of this stuff about what criminal enterprises do to hide their criminal activity, which is what the government is doing themselves. They’re hiding their own activity. The answer is openness and transparency, period. Right now with my colleagues, we’re not encrypting with each other when we’re communicating on the civil lawsuit. We’re wide open. We’re in the open. If they’re monitoring us, then so be it.
In the New Yorker article, Jane Mayer quotes you as saying, “I actually had hopes for Obama.” What’s your opinion on the Obama administration’s stated support for whistle-blowers and, more generally, his counterterrorism record?
Worse than Bush. I have to say that. I actually voted for Obama. It’s all rhetoric for me now. As Americans we were hoodwinked. He’s expanding the secrecy regime far beyond what the Bush even intended, interestingly enough. I think Bush is probably like, “Whoa.”

What we need is a 'Miracle' to turn around this Sad & Sorry state of affairs...

A century ago in the age of imperial Empire Africa was carved up by the European powers mainly Rothchild owned Britain and France....
http://www.thelatinlibrary.com/imperialism/maps/africa1914.jpg
After the two world wars where many Africans served and died in the various imperial Armies, eventually they were granted their independence.
One by one ,some by consent and others like Angola, Mozambique & Zimbabwe by long conflicts.The PTB new this was doomed to fail as most
of the countries are set up on false concepts imperial cartographers and empire makers drawing lines on maps overs ancient tribal boundries
and creating artificial unions. Which later and still have disasterous effects as has been shown in civil wars in The Congo,Nigeria ,Uganda
Rwanda and countless other local conflicts based on tribal disputes as the new elites in these emerging countries favoured one group over
another and democracy soon got lost under military coups and despotism. In fact Africa was designed to fall into chaos by TPTB so that
at a later time they would move back and take over the reigns as their forefathers before...
Other agendas involve the depopulation of the continent thats why the UN has had no serious attempt to stop these wars,disease,famine
and corruption as it has been left to one side to deteriate, as a battle field for various factions and a arms dealers paradise both from the West &
former Warsaw pact to get rid of surplus out dated weaponry to fuel the conflicts and also keep the vast majority of Africans in poverty
while there western or eastern sponcered elites grew wealthy and gave away their various assets to Western banks and Military complex's
and corporation that in the end are owned by the same few families....
After the end of the cold war, the the Neo Cons and others replaced it with the war on terror there was a void created in Africa.
TPTB were happy to let it devolve into its many petty wars and massacres , leaving the project to fester so at a later time
they would be able to 'Corporate recolonise' in the name of restoring order that was set up 100 years earlier with the
aid of the 'New Britania' in Washington and the puppets in the UN...
Whether unforseen or not the Chinnese in the 90's/2000's began aid for trade in parts of Africa and now have a strong toe
hold and is helping devolop some countries in exchange for raw materials ,exectalty what imperial Europe was doing
last century, but updated. As TPTB pull all the strings behind the scenes this has been allowed to happen to fill
the void left by the collapse of the Soviet union and a counter to western military power. This is a vast subject and
cannot be written here, only the jist as many books have been written about the complaxities of politics...
But in the end it boils down to the agendas of a very few 'Elite families' governed from the background !!! imho...

The link with China & Africa in this thread is why Obama and the military in the
west are trying to counter their influence and get back into the African continent...
and Bypass Congress to enable Obama and his masters to keep the chess game going
without interferrence as even some Congressmen are begining to smell a rat !!
This documentry explains part of Chinas rise, mainly by the Corporate world
who moved industry out of the west for cheap labour and no enviromental
laws so pollution has swamped the country as it did in Dickensian Europe & US.
China is exporting these methods to Africa in a rerun of the industrial revolution!!
This is deplorable and should be stopped , but not by the agendas of the west or
corporates who set all this up behind the scenes.....
The real answer is the development of free clean energies and the dismantling
of vast corporations and military ind complex...Thats not going to be let happen
in the forseeble future volentarily, which is another reason TPTB have been
encouraging China to militarise to keep the status que in military spending to
justify the Pentagons evergrowing demands for military funds...

Jesselyn Radack, his laywer, and a whistleblower in her own right, writes a blog at Daily Kos occasionally, almost always related to whistle-blower persecution ongoing - it's one of the few things worth reading at that location for cheerleading Dems, many of whom don't like her for her criticisms of Obama and his admin's policies.
This search brings up her blogs since february

That is interesting and very much worth to be read.
I am not surprised at all, corruption is extremely heavy in govenrment, around the world. It truly looks like we are run by rogue elements all over. The worst your are, the more you run the country or a company.

I wonder why this story get such little attention here, this is bombshell news.
Maybe because we heard calls for an impeachment so often, but this is actually the real deal, there is a real chance of setting a precedent.
Last week, North Carolina Representative Walter Jones filed an Impeachment Resolution in the House H.CON.RES.107.IH (http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c112:H.CON.RES.107:) stating “Expressing the sense of Congress that the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.”

So if he's impeached is it on the grounds of his shredding the constitution and those "acts" will be repealed? Or are these just on what wars? His continuing of the Middle East Charades or what?

The law is to prevent him from doing it again as he did in Syria. This law is result of the administration stating that the choice of offensive act of war was determined by the UN or NATO and congress might be notified. If Obama is impeached it will be for violation of the Constitution of the US. A joint house/senate resolution was drawn up to inform Obama and the administration that they will be in violation if they performed any offensive action without the consent of congress.

Right so then it wont matter if he decides to behave now? Or are they definitely going through with the Impeachment Proceedings? I have heard from several sources that the votes already exist for Impeachment of Obama, but that it hadn't been put through because they (congress/senate) hadn't decided what to do after the fact. Maybe now they've made up their minds.
