November 11 - News Points

Recently I made the decision to make this blog public, and by public I mean posting the link to my facebook page.  This was a huge step for me.  I still dont think there is anyone who wants to hear what I have to say, but guess what I really dont care.  This is all about me anyway :) Anyway back to the news that the mainstream media will NOT cover.

Ft. Hood shooter:

• White house not able to share information with the ranking republican (Peter Hoekstra) member of House intelligence committee.
• Required by law to inform on a timely basis of national security matters
• Whitehouse has information regarding Islamic contacts, mosque and the FBI was following the domestic terrorist since 2008.
• President Obama stated we should not jump to conclusions – but had information that states the contrary.  Funny thing though...remember this? When President Obama stated while he did not have all the facts the Cambridge Police acted stupidly.
• Compare how much conviction conveyed during that press conference with the press conference for the Ft. Hood shooting.  Does something seem wrong to you...I know it does to me.
• Let’s call it what it is. If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck – well you get the idea. This was a planned terrorist attack. To call it anything less is just a disgrace to the men & women who died at Ft. Hood.

Chris Matthews:

• Stated on his show “Hardball” that its not illegal to call Al-Qaeda is it?  I dont know about you...I am sure questions would have been raised if in 1940's people made phone calls to Hilter or his Army.  Maybe it's just me.

Global Warming:

• 3rd coldest October in recorded history.  So again, gotta save those Polar Bears dont we.

President Obama:

• Fired Susan Crawford – Internet Czar. She is behind Net Neutrality.  Don't worry it was another in the middle of the night removal we have come to expect from our "transparent" President.
• I still cannot forgive the President for giving a shout out before addressing a national tragedy.
• Speaking of which, Did President Obama's speech to the Native American's sound familiar.  It did to me.  Check out this video of Van Jones.  I thought he was out of the White House? Hmmm, I guess I was hoping for some change.

Congressman Barney Frank:

• Was on front porch in Maine when police found marijuana plants outside.
• Frank did not have an idea of what was happening.
• Would not be able to recognize a pot plant because he is not an outdoorsman.

Eric Holder:

• United States Attorney General
• US Department of Justice – Grand Jury subpoena demanded all IP traffic to and personal information from website to be disclosed:
• SSN
• Banks Accounts
• E-mail addresses
• IP Addresses
• Physical Addresses
• Credit Cards
• Placed gag order on indymedia.us not to mention probe was going on.
• Issued by US Attorney Tim Morrison – Indiana
• Fed representative – “I didn’t think we are doing anything to warrant national attention”
• What is Eric Holder really after?

And to leave you with a quote from a radical - Benjamin Franklin "To get people out of poverty, make them uncomfortable in poverty”.  You think its time to overhaul the system and stop this maddness of entitlement from the government?
