Can it all be coincidence? By Don Fredrick web posted October 8, 2012 As I noted in the introduction to my book, The Obama Timeline, a jury at a murder trial will often find the accumulated circumstantial evidence so overwhelming that a guilty verdict is obvious—even though there may be no witness to the crime. "The jurors in the Scott Peterson trial believed the collection of evidence more than they believed Scott Peterson. Among other things, the jury thought that being arrested with $15,000 in cash, recently-dyed hair, a newly-grown goatee, four cell phones, camping equipment, a map to a...

The Federal Reserve and Bank of America Initiate a Coup to Dump Billions of Dollars of Losses on the American Taxpayer Bloomberg reports that Bank of America is dumping derivatives onto a subsidiary which is insured by the government – i.e. taxpayers. Yves Smith notes: If you have any doubt that Bank of America is going down, this development should settle it …. Both [professor of economics and law, and former head S&L prosecutor] Bill Black (who I interviewed just now) and I see this as a desperate move by Bank of America’s management, a de facto admission that they...

(Army.mil) — Two hundred and thirty-six years ago, the United States Army was established to defend our Nation. From the Revolutionary War to the current operations taking place around the world, our Soldiers remain Army Strong with a deep commitment to our core values and beliefs. This 236th birthday commemorates America’s Army – Soldiers, Families and Civilians – who are achieving a level of excellence that is truly Army Strong. Being Army Strong goes beyond physical endurance and mental preparedness. It encompasses an indomitable spirit, and high ethical and moral values. These are not only desirable traits in a person,...

I DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR SENDING THIS BECAUSE ALL OF IT IS TRUE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If any other of our presidents had doubled the National Debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would You have Approved? If any other of our presidents had then proposed to Double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved? If any other of our presidents had criticized a State Law that he admitted he never even read, would you think that he is...

5-14-2011 Heard some SR71’s are going to be sold surplus….hope my bid wins! 5-20-2011 Well, I didn’t win the SR71 auction. Some guy from Venezuela, (the only other bidder) out-bid me by $19,999,500. 5-21-2011 Okay, the SR71 story hasn’t ended yet. It’s gone into bazaaro world. Too much to print here, so I posted the story on my “Notes” page. Last night, I was eating a Hostess Cherry Pie & drinking a glass of milk while watching “The Office”. I get a call from an unidentified caller. The guy has a thick accent and introduces himself as “Hugo, the guy...

A proposed Constitutional Amendment

The Most Intelligent Analysis Yet! Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured out. "The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president." "The problem is much deeper and...

PTSD by J.R. 7. November 2009 03:47 I’m more than a little angry right now. Yes, I’m irate that some shitbag Major (“shitbag” is often used as a technical term in the Army) opened fire on a group of his fellow Soldiers killing 12 and wounding 30. But that’s not even what is under my skin right now. What is bothering me is the general reaction of our media and those stupid enough to think this was not an act of terrorism, but was caused by supposed PTSD caused at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. You want to know what...

162nd Inf Bde, FSF-TT mission move forward By Maj. FRANK L. NIETO Fort Polk Guardian Posted Oct 02, 2009 @ 09:36 AM Fort Polk, La. —The hot desert sun splashed down on a group of Soldiers clustered outside the Iraqi Army compound. Maj. Gen. Mustafa, the Iraqi Division commander, shook hands with the brigade commander politely covering his heart and gesturing towards the door. Standing beside these two was another colonel, wearing the distinctive 1st Armored Division patch. In the past, this may have seemed out of place. The three and their entourages then stepped inside and got down to...

From an extremely well-placed source in congress: It's game-on against the "Bluedogs".

Need some help here. Looking at the great signs people are holding at some of the TEA Parties, I had a thought: The pro-abortion ghouls hold up pre-made printed signs that say something like "keep government out of my body They seem to be at all the pro abortion gatherings.If anybody with a little talent can come up with a look-a-like sign, same colors, shape, lettering that say something like Keep Government out of my body / doctor's office, etc, it might be very effective.I don't have any artistic ability but somebody out there surely does. If signs like that...

Monday, July 13, 2009 How to Stage a Revolution A new mathematical model reveals the tactics that a small number of interlopers can use to seize power. How is it possible for a small number of newcomers to displace a well-established group of leaders? That's not just a question for military organizations wanting to overthrow governments; it's a question for political parties controlling national debates, new products displacing well-established market leaders, and flocking birds following leaders to new food sources. Social scientists have studied the nature of effective leadership for centuries with limited success. Physicists, on the other hand, are...

The Barack H. Obama Family Rescue Foundation

Comments of a KGB defector

ALL THE elements were present: the individual stories told by real people of their situations and hardships, the packed-to-the rafters crowd, the crowd's chanting of key phrases and names, the action on the spot of texting and phoning to show instant support and commitment to jump into the political battle, the rallying selections of music, the setting of the agenda by the power people. The Democratic National Convention had all the elements of the perfectly organized event, Saul Alinsky style.

This is what one high school teacher is teaching advanced placement students: He posted it on Daily Kos.Comparative Government 101 by Hawesdawg Fri Sep 12, 2008 at 07:55:56 AM PDT This year, for the first time, I'm teaching AP Comparative Government. I have a smidgen of background on the topics, but I'm basically diving into the true depths of this issue as we go along. I thought I would throw out some thoughts and, optimistically, insights into this fall's electoral craziness through the medium of the course I'm teaching. I also request that if you know more than me, please...

Does anyone know if Barack H. Obama "The One" registered for the draft?

What a relief!!! Our son made it home safe and mostly unharmed last night. Along with his unit, he served for 15 long months in Iraq. What a great anniversary gift for his mom and I! We are grateful to God for his safe return.
