Election buying. Establishment Politics. Newt strikes back.

Can the GOP establishment BUY an election?

Will the nomination be won playing Obama/Chicago-style politics?

The Republican establishment seems to think so.

Newt Gingrich thinks they are wrong.

Newt used the debates to talk directly with the American people. And climbed from nowhere to lead in the polls.

Newt won a recent Tea Party poll. He also won a recent TownHall/HotAir.com poll.

That’s why the establishment's candidate has gone negative.

Because he can't win on his merits. He can't run on his record.

DON’T LET THE LIBERAL GOP ESTABLISHMENT BUY THIS ELECTION.

THEY ARE OUTSPENDING NEWT 20:1

NEWT NEEDS YOUR HELP NOW

You know Newt.

You have watched him on Fox News fight for your conservative values.

He fought for you as Speaker of the House:

With Newt, we balanced the federal budget four straight years
With Newt, we reformed welfare
With Newt, we cut taxes
With Newt, we created 11 million new jobs.

And, We did it all without the establishment's help.

Newt is the proven conservative leader:

Newt defended Life.
Newt defended our 2nd amendment right to bear arms.
Newt has a Lifetime 90% rating from the American Conservative Union.

Newt has fought for us. Now we need to fight for him.

If the establishment buys this nomination, we all lose.

Don’t let them.

Newt needs your help now.

Angela Zhang: 17-year-old wins 100k for creating cancer-killing nanoparticle

"....Angela Zhang is, and she’s just been awarded the $100,000 Grand Prize in the Individual category of the Siemens Competition in Math, Science & Technology. Her project was entitled “Design of Image-guided, Photo-thermal Controlled Drug Releasing Multifunctional Nanosystem for the Treatment of Cancer Stem Cells.”

Her creation is being heralded as a “Swiss army knife of cancer treatment.” Zhang managed to develop a nanoparticle that can be delivered to the site of a tumor through the drug salinomycin. Once there it kills the cancer stem cells. However, Zhang went further and included both gold and iron-oxide components, which allow for non-invasive imaging of the site through MRI and Photoacoustics...."  Continued: http://goo.gl/wpikL

( Fox Host distraught, thinks new Muppet Movie sends Anti-Corporate Message )

TOP TEN DISNEY MOVIES and their "evil librul" agenda:

1) 101 Dalmatians: teaches kids that fur is murder and that rich people are fucking cruel

2) The Rescuers: big gov't agents from a United Nations work together to save an orphan

3) Cinderella: hard work will only take you so far; sometimes the fairy godmother of socialism is necessary to achieve upwards social mobility

4) Dumbo: animal cruelty (and racial stereotypes) are wrong; believe in yourself

5) Bambi: pro-environmentalist theme that also shows that hunting is cruel

6) Fantasia: psychedelics and music are totally fucking awesome together

7) Pinocchio: another tale of upwards social mobility being made possible by hard work and the magic of socialism

8) Robin Hood: take from the rich and give to the poor

9) The Sword and the Stone: emphasizes the primacy of a good education

10) Winnie the Pooh: don't eat too much hunny, also: depressives and active children don't need to be medicated.

CONSERVATIVE Disney movies

1) The Lion King: an oppressed minority is forced to starve to death in order to maintain an illegitimate executive power; also, no sex before marriage

2) Beauty and the Beast: the return of debtor's prison is advocated and women are treated as objects. In normal conservative sloganeering, the message is patriotic and beautiful but hides ugliness. Here one is asked to see the beauty under the ugliness of the message. Also, no sex before marriage.

3) Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs: seven strip miners give charity to a homeless runaway by making her their slave; also, no sex before marriage

4) The Little Mermaid: the dangers of what happens when a girl disobeys daddy; also, no sex before marriage

5) Sleeping Beauty: because of one little prick, an entire kingdom is put in jeopardy (it's the George W. Bush story); also, no sex before marriage

A Brief History of Republican Treason - from Nixon to Boehner

" The GOP’s History of ‘Hostage-Taking’

November 6, 2011

Special Report: For more than four decades, Democrats have tolerated Republican abuses, claiming accountability wouldn’t be “good for the country.” But this softness has only encouraged the kind of hardball behavior that has now taken the U.S. economy “hostage,” writes Robert Parry.

By Robert Parry

Since the 1960s, the Republican and Democratic parties have diverged in behavior – as well as over issues such as war and social programs – with the Republicans sometimes called the “daddy party” and the Democrats the “mommy party.” But if that analogy is followed, you would be talking about a very dysfunctional marriage.

More often than not in recent years, the Republicans have played the role of “abusive husband,” arriving home angry, busting up furniture and slapping around the wife and kids – before passing out on the couch – after which the Democratic “abused wife” tidies things up and tries to conceal bruises from the neighbors. Then, hubby arouses and the process begins again.... "

townhall.com joke of the week: Will the Government Confiscate Our Gold? Discounted Gold and Silver: FREE Shipping THIS WEEK ONLY!

Dear Fellow Conservatives,

If you are stockpiling guns, ammo, and food, now is also the time to stockpile gold! [ http://goo.gl/EltxX ]

It is no secret that gold is solid protection for your long-term wealth against market uncertainty. But in the event of another gold confiscation, some types of gold are less likely to be confiscated. How can you potentially prevent your gold from being taken by the government?

As currencies around the world including the U.S. dollar continue to fail, gold prices will continue to soar. Top economists are predicting $5,000 an ounce for the yellow metal over the next four years! Such staggering prices could result in a return to the gold standard in the not too distant future. While a return to the gold standard would require banks to increase their gold holdings and could make owning some types of gold illegal like it did back in 1933, we could see gold prices climb to $10,000 an ounce.

It is exactly these types of economic conditions that could lead to another GOLD CONFISCATION. Before you purchase gold, make certain you are buying the gold with the strongest benefit to you -- gold that may not be eligible for confiscation by the government. NOT ALL GOLD IS CREATED EQUAL!

Discounted Gold and Silver: FREE Shipping THIS WEEK ONLY!

PROCRASTINATOR'S SALE ALERT!

Protect Yourself with Gold and Silver

THIS WEEK ONLY and Get FREE SHIPPING

[ http://goo.gl/I3oPg ]

(Order by THIS FRIDAY and get FREE SHIPPING/INSURANCE – just call 1-800-800-1865 and mention Townhall and order by 7:30pm eastern time, Friday, October 28, 2011)

The clock is ticking, and you KNOW you need to do it. Until you own at least some gold and silver, you remain deeply vulnerable to dollar devaluation and financial turmoil – both of which are well underway and certain to get worse very soon.

So, as a service to Townhall readers, we're going to make it easy for you – with FREE SHIPPING until Friday, October 28, 2011. With gold and silver prices having recently fallen back, now is an ideal time to buy by calling 1-800-800-1865. But time is of the essence... here's why:

U.S. Treasuries have been stripped of their vaunted AAA status as debts spiral out of control.

Another financial crisis is unfolding, as European and U.S. banks begin to buckle. Central banks are responding with devaluations of currencies worldwide.

The U.S. economy is sinking into the mud after "stimulus" failed to restore job growth.

Bottom Line: You need to prepare for the possibility of serious trouble – dead ahead. Evacuating some of your money into the safety of physical precious metals is a prudent way to do so.
But time is short...

Huge Price Correction = Huge Opportunity!

The recent price correction has handed you a great buying opportunity, and many experts are still calling for at least $2,000 gold and $50 silver in a matter of months.

The time to act is NOW. The good news is – Independent Living Bullion is prepared to make it easy and affordable for you to do so. Just call 1-800-800-1865, place an order, and we'll securely ship and insure your gold and silver bullion for FREE.

Time is of the essence before prices go ballistic again. Right now, silver is still ON SALE – more than 35% below this year's highs!

Through this Friday, Independent Living Bullion is enhancing this opportunity to protect your purchasing power with FREE SHIPPING AND INSURANCE on any order – the absolute deadline is Friday, October 28, 2011 at 7:30pm eastern time (you MUST mention this Townhall email)! Call us today at 1-800-800-1865.

Don't Put Off This Protective Investment Any Longer – Call 1-800-800-1865 NOW!

Independent Living Bullion has but one purpose – to make it easy for customers to invest in physical precious metals... and to do it the right way, with:

The lowest possible premiums on popular bullion coins, rounds, and bars;
Courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable staff who gladly take the time to answer all your questions;

Maximum privacy. Inconspicuous packaging and no needless government reporting.

Many other major national dealers advertise gold and silver, but will unfortunately try to upsell you to super-high-margin "rare" coins. Such coins are NOT "investments" – and are almost always worth 30% to 40% less on resale from the moment you take delivery, thanks to the huge mark-ups involved.

Independent Living Bullion will never try to sell you these risky and speculative numismatic or collectible coins – and does not pressure you in any event.

We sell (and buy) gold, silver, platinum, and palladium coins, bars, and rounds – in bullion form only – and at prices near the live global spot market price.

Silver is 35% Below Recent Highs – This Sort of Buying Opportunity is RARE!

The problem with a price correction is that buyers often miss their opportunity by holding out for EVEN LOWER prices. They miss the forest for the trees. If you haven't built a solid position in precious metals yet, gambling on even lower prices is a risky proposition.

History shows irredeemable fiat currencies enter crisis suddenly. No one can predict the event that ultimately destroys what little confidence is left in paper money. Even those who recognize the risks are often caught unprepared. Fragile (and diminished) confidence is all that backs our paper dollar, and, for that matter, all that backs fiat currencies world-wide.

Act Now and Get FREE SHIPPING AND INSURANCE!

So no more excuses! Take an important step today toward protecting your wealth with precious metals. We'll help with FREE SHIPPING AND INSURANCE on any order you place by the deadline!

Simply call one of our precious metals specialists at 1-800-800-1865 right now and mention this special Townhall email. You can complete your order in only a few minutes. We'll ship your purchase direct to you – fully insured and totally discreet – ABSOLUTELY FREE!

But, remember, you must order by 7:30pm eastern time, October 28, 2011. You will always receive great pricing and friendly service from Independent Living Bullion, but regular shipping rates will apply after this week.

Cop Punches Another #OccupyWallStreet Protester in the Face

Published by Mona
http://freakoutnation.com

At some point here we have to discern the New York Police Department’s intentions because clearly they are here to ‘protect and serve’ someone other than the public. Financial Giants have been putting the NYPD on their payroll for some time now.

Watch this chaotic video and pay close attention to the 34 second mark.



Alt. Video Source: http://youtu.be/vxZ8_JdKm0Q

Curiously:
" We are occupying the public space in front of J.P. Morgan Chase Bank on 5th Ave. and 10th St. We are occupying this space as a form of continuous protest. This location was chosen for various reasons. As one of the largest financial institutions in the world, and the recipient of a federal bailout, Chase Bank paid no taxes in 2010 while hardworking Americans continued to see their wages fall and the social safety net collapse. While continuing to fund Mountain Top Removal and the pill epidemic through their holdings in the pharmaceutical industry, their actions have been directly detrimental to West Virginia and Appalachia. Due to Chase donations to the NYPD, Wall Street protesters are arrested while Wall Street criminals run free. Chase Bank is representative of the corporate control of American democracy. "
Just after those dubious donations by Chase Bank to the Police department, the brutality we are witnessing recently took place. The force the police are using against protesters is almost as if they are trying to incite a riot.

This is why we rage. Even our police force, who are paid by taxpayer dollars [that's us] are bought and paid for by the Big Banks, who control everything around us, even our own safety.

UPDATE:

The female being punched in the face was apparently a male, Felix Rivera-Pitre. My bad.

Special thanks to OccupyLove2011.

Many thanks to the Huntington News.

OWS Protester gets Run over by a Cop on Video – Right Wing Spins it as Fake

Published by Anomaly100
http://freakoutnation.com

During the impromptu march after the Occupy Wall Street protesters’ triumphant victory of avoiding eviction from Liberty Park, one protester, reportedly a lawyer, was run over by a police officer on his motorcycle. With videos and pictures of the incident now circulating, I was curious as to what spin the right wing would give this, after all, the motorcycle is on top of the man’s leg as the cop saunters off leaving him in agony.

Here’s the picture clearly showing the cop after he got off of his motorcycle leaving the man on the street in pain under the motorcycle.





Alt. Video Source: http://youtu.be/VrzQedHM6SY

The Gateway Pundit ‘reports’ their denial:
" Don’t get too upset. The whole incident was totally staged. The protester wasn’t even in front of the police officer. He just laid down and started writhing in pain like he had been hit. "
By all means, don’t prove it, just say it enough times until it’s a fact. How very Fox News of them.

Republicans are attempting to deny any police brutality has taken place from the onset. Even when the initial pepper spraying incident took place showing two females in a video screaming on their knees — one of them couldn’t weigh more than 100 pounds dripping wet wearing a Polly-Annish looking dress, yet somehow Tea Party Republicans justified it.

The spin on this is amazing. Tea Partiers deem these protesters as ‘dirty hippies’ yet they are ‘patriots’. Their pomposity is overwhelming, given that we would defend them if we saw the prevalence of police force. Their smug feigning of righteousness of all that is good while dismissing clear facts right in their tea party faces is absurd. These are the people that were voted in, thus taking control of the House. These are the people that wanted to shut the government down.

Their denial is simply a jealous tea party temper tantrum. Time Magazine’s new survey resulted in 54 percent of Americans having a favorable impression of the protests; just 23 percent have a negative impression. An NBC/Wall Street Journal survey, meanwhile, found that 37 percent of respondents “tend to support” the movement, while only 18 percent “tend to oppose” it. In fact, Occupy Wall Street has more public approval than Congress, the Tea Party and President Obama. I’m sure they’ll deny those statistics too.

I’m sure this isn’t really an officer’s arm about to smack that guy upside his head.

The Limits Of Free Speech

by Joyce Arthur

Joyce Arthur is a writer, activist and founder and Coordinator of the Abortion Rights Coalition of Canada, a national political pro-choice group. This article originally appeared on the RH Reality Check blog, and is being reprinted here with the express permission of the writer.

" The popular catchphrase of free speech defenders is a quote attributed to Voltaire: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” Civil libertarians often defend and support the notion that the right to freely express offensive opinions is a bedrock human right that should not be abridged except under very narrow circumstances—typically for hate speech that directly incites violence against a person or group of persons. However, I support broader prosecution of hate speech—defined here as speech that disparages a person or class of persons based on an immutable characteristic (colour, race, origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, and age), or their occupation, family or marital status, and religion or lack of religion. Proscribing hate speech more broadly would, I believe, foster a more inclusive, tolerant, and safer society.

Many western countries already do criminalize hate speech [6] in a more encompassing way, although enforcement is often weak and spotty. A typical example is Canada, where it is illegal to “expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt…on the basis of a prohibited ground of discrimination” (Canadian Human Rights Act [7]) and to “wilfully promote hatred against any identifiable group” (Criminal Code of Canada [8]). The United States, however, stands almost alone in its veneration of free speech at almost any cost. The U.S. Supreme Court insists that the First Amendment protects hate speech unless it constitutes a “ true threat” or will incite imminent lawless action [9].

But societies should take action against hate speech without requiring that a few specific words by themselves must directly and immediately incite violence, or be likely to. That sets a very high bar and is difficult to prove. It also allows purveyors of hate to evade responsibility simply by not making explicit calls for violence. Further, our new digital world raises the stakes—the Internet has spawned a proliferation of hate speech along with useful information such as bomb-making instructions or the home addresses of abortion providers. This has enabled others to commit violence long after the words were first published.

Violent acts of hate are generally preceded by hate speech that is expressed publicly and repeatedly for years, including by public figures, journalists, leading activists, and even the state. Some examples include Anders Behring Breivik’s terrorist acts in Norway (June 2011), the assassination of Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller (May 2009) and other abortion providers in the 1990’s, the Rwandan genocide against the Tutsis (1994), the ethnic cleansing of Bosnian Muslims in Bosnia-Herzegovina (1992-1995), and the Nazi Holocaust.

Courts of law should be able to look at broader patterns of hate speech in the culture to determine whether a hateful atmosphere inspired or contributed to violence, or would likely lead to future violence. When hate speech is relatively widespread and acceptable (such as against Muslims or abortion providers), it’s not difficult to see the main precursor to violence—an escalation of negative behaviour or rhetoric against the person or group. Dr. George Tiller endured a previous assassination attempt and a decades-long campaign of persecution waged by the anti-abortion movement, which worsened over time, especially in the last year or two of the doctor’s life. Anders Behring Breivik had actively opposed multiculturalism for years and had immersed himself in Christian Right propaganda about the supposed threat of Muslim immigration to Europe, a view popularized only in recent years by a growing army of anti-Muslim bloggers and right-wing journalists.

As these examples illustrate, we can often pinpoint the main purveyors of hate speech that lead to violent crimes. In the Norway shootings, the killer Breivik relied heavily [10] on writings from Peder Jensen (“Fjordman”), Pamela Geller, Robert Spencer, Mark Steyn, Jihad Watch, Islam Watch, Front Page Magazine, and others. Such individuals and groups should be charged with incitement to hatred and violence. Similar culpability for the assassination of Dr. George Tiller should rest on the shoulders [11] of the extremist anti-abortion group Operation Rescue and Fox News commentator Bill O’Reilly.

In general, anyone spewing hate to an audience, especially on a repeated basis, could be held criminally responsible. This would include politicians, journalists, organizational leaders and speakers, celebrities, bloggers and hosts of online forums, and radical groups that target certain categories of people. We also need to hold people in accountable positions to a higher standard, such as government employees and contractors, ordained religious leaders, CEOs, and the like.

Criteria by which to assign culpability could include a speaker’s past record of prior hate speech against a particular person or group, how widely and frequently the views were disseminated, and the specific content and framing of their views. In cases where violence has already occurred, judges could determine how likely it was that the violent perpetrators had been exposed to someone’s specific hate speech, and hand down harsher sentences accordingly.

townhall.com Spotlight: Horrific Predictions For 2012 - joke of the week

From: Maxwell Swart – Independent American Researcher
Date: Friday 9/16/11

Dear Fellow American,

The US government has been lying to you.

I wish I could say that the government was just keeping the secret because they’re incompetent…

But no one can miss how vital this secret is.

In fact, this secret could literally save millions of innocent American lives…

Or spell near-certain death for thousands of families.

Please don’t think I say this to scare you; this is reality.

The worst part is…

We’ve made it easy for them to lie to us.

Click Here To Get The Inside Scoop On The Horrific Predictions The Government Has Been Hiding! [ http://goo.gl/H1oWR ]

You and I have been ignoring the fact our loved ones are in grave danger. Pretending this “President” isn’t ruining our country, military and economy. Pretending it’ll just “blow over.”

But you’ve had that sinking feeling…

You know there is something very wrong here.

I can relate to that.

It was tough for me to admit it, but our homeland is in a precarious position.

As hard as it is to imagine, our great nation could literally be wiped-out – by an enemy we don’t even have on the radar.

You see, right now our biggest threat isn’t the Taliban, Islamic radicals, North Korea or even a deadly disease from Africa.

Our biggest danger, is also something we can’t live without…

The sun could kill us.

Click here to read the time sensitive predictions made on the fate of the US in 2012… [ http://goo.gl/Fa8Ax ]

Oddly enough, there’s more here than pure scientific discoveries…

For The First Time In Modern History, Science, Religion, & Common Sense Agree…

Strangely enough multiple unrelated sources are pointing to something big:

The Mayan Calendar drops off completely

Current events have started sounding an awful lot like Revelation

Now NASA picks up potential for the sun to go haywire and decimate our nation.

Bottom line?

Something is very wrong. Sure, here in the US we’re still reasonably safe – but for how long?

Take a good look at the world. In 2010 alone we’ve had:

The Haitian earthquake killing over 220,000 – not to mention more massive earthquakes than the world has seen in the past few centuries…
A dramatic increase in tornadoes in the US…

Wikileaks jeopardizing our relationship with practically every country on the map…

North Korea gearing up to attempt a nuclear Armageddon…
Islamic Jihadists in Sweden…

Just turn on CNN & I’m sure you’ll have more.

The painful reality is… we’re spiraling downward.

The even more painful reality is…

If you haven’t started preparing for 2012 you could be sealing your family’s fate.

Again, this isn’t fear mongering. Here’s why:

I HATE to think of my fellow Americans harmed, and I pray that your wife and children stay safe.

Which is exactly why I’ve got to be honest with you about the dangers of 2012.

No one likes to imagine your starving neighbors rioting. Beating down your front door to steal any food you were smart enough to stockpile…

It’s a nightmare to imagine yourself losing everything you’ve worked so hard to achieve… The home your family was raised in, the nest-egg you scrimped and scraped to save.

Worst of all is the thought of our noble nation being torn apart from the inside. Torn apart by widespread fear and panic. Brother turning against brother.

Trust me, you don’t want to be forced to rely on strangers for your next meal.

Or even worse – the government…

But don’t take my word for it. Ask the Katrina survivors what it was like…

Not showering for days. Having no place to go but FEMA refugee camps, and being treated like dead weight…

Click Here to learn exactly how to protect yourself & your family from the horrific predictions of 2012… [ http://goo.gl/ZUj6S ]

You see, the reality here is not pretty. And the government knows it. But…

The Government Does NOT Want This Information Becoming Public!

Since the Wikileaks fiasco, the electronic arm of the FBI has been on the prowl to shut down any and every website that might have “potentially harmful” information.

While I applaud them for prosecuting that good-for-nothing cyber-spy Assange, the sad truth is they’re going to tackle anything they see as a threat.

Which wouldn’t be so bad, but, this administration sees American pride and truth as a threat.

Now, I’m not going to lie down and give up without a fight, but, I’m not sure how much longer this information will be available…

Click here to read the time sensitive predictions made on the fate of the US in 2012… [ http://goo.gl/KCchH ]

Please do not procrastinate! Without this knowledge you and your family are wide open to serious danger that you absolutely must prepare for.

Sincerely,

[ Signature ]

Maxwell Swart

P.S. NASA has made some of the biggest discoveries in human history. Don’t let their earth shattering secret that could save our nation stay hidden!

P.P.S. You’re not going to get any scientific mumbo-jumbo here – just exactly what you need to save your family, and possibly your country.

Attack of the trolls: Who does it and why

"....An internet "troll" has been jailed for mocking dead teenagers on various websites. Public figures, including Stephen Fry and Miranda Hart, have also been victims of trolling. So what is it and why do people do it?

The word comes from a Norse monster but the troll is a very modern menace. For some it's the internet equivalent of road rage, vandalising a grave, or kicking a man when he's down.

Trolling is a phenomenon that has swept across websites in recent years. Online forums, Facebook pages and newspaper comment forms are bombarded with insults, provocations or threats. Supporters argue it's about humour, mischief and freedom of speech. But for many the ferocity and personal nature of the abuse verges on hate speech.

In its most extreme form it is a criminal offence. On Tuesday Sean Duffy was jailed for 18 weeks after posting offensive messages and videos on tribute pages about young people who had died. One of those he targeted was 15-year-old Natasha MacBryde, who had been killed by a train. "I fell asleep on the track lolz" was one of the messages he left on a Facebook page set up by her family...." -- Continued: http://goo.gl/37xEB

Christian Parent: We Must Stop Schools from Teaching Kids That Gay Couples Exist!

Src.: Friendly Atheist by Hemant Mehta

"..The Christian group CitizenLink (a Focus on the Family affiliate) has exposed the gay agenda in public schools! Thankfully, Education Analyst Candi Cushman is here to tell us how the homosexuals are out to indoctrinate the children by teaching them about things like (*ugh*) tolerance

[ Video: http://goo.gl/Qbb1Y ]

I can’t believe it either. They’re teaching kids in first grade that gay couples exist! (*Cue screams*)

Cushman says that elementary school is too early to talk about sexuality — as if kids don’t understand anything about it. We know that’s not true, though. I had my first crush in kindergarten and several more over the next few years. It’s never too early to let kids know that it’s ok if they like someone of the same sex.

Cushman’s writings, a lot of them found at the misnamed True Tolerance site, are littered with phrases like “pro-gay” and “promoting homosexuality”… as if our side is dead set on “converting” people into gayhood. They don’t get it. We’re simply saying that there’s nothing wrong with being gay. The earlier kids understand that lesson, the less bullying LGBT students will have to endure as they get older and the easier it’ll be for kids to accept their own sexual identity — whatever it is — when they’re old enough to understand what that means...." -- Src.

The full story behind Rev. Jeremiah Wright's 9.11 sermon

"The Day of Jerusalem's Fall" 9/16/2001 & "Confusing God and Government" 4/13/03 -- Reverend Wright Transcript http://goo.gl/3NDzH

Watch unedited: Jeremiah A. Wright " whole context "
http://goo.gl/in5Ge and the " god damn " sermon http://goo.gl/xaRvn

....

The full story behind Rev. Jeremiah Wright's 9/11 sermon ( CNN )
http://goo.gl/15Qhw

" Editor's note: CNN Contributor Roland Martin has listened to several of the sermons of Rev. Jeremiah Wright from Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. Portions of the sermons have been excerpted in recent stories.

As this whole sordid episode regarding the sermons of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright has played out over the last week, I wanted to understand what he ACTUALLY said in this speech. I've been saying all week on CNN that context is important, and I just wanted to know what the heck is going on.

I have now actually listened to the sermon Rev. Wright gave after September 11 titled, "The Day of Jerusalem's Fall." It was delivered on Sept. 16, 2001.

One of the most controversial statements in this sermon was when he mentioned "chickens coming home to roost." He was actually quoting Edward Peck, former U.S. Ambassador to Iraq and deputy director of President Reagan's terrorism task force, who was speaking on FOX News. That's what he told the congregation.

He was quoting Peck as saying that America's foreign policy has put the nation in peril:

"I heard Ambassador Peck on an interview yesterday did anybody else see or hear him? He was on FOX News, this is a white man, and he was upsetting the FOX News commentators to no end, he pointed out, a white man, an ambassador, he pointed out that what Malcolm X said when he was silenced by Elijah Mohammad was in fact true, he said Americas chickens, are coming home to roost.”

"We took this country by terror away from the Sioux, the Apache, Arikara, the Comanche, the Arapaho, the Navajo. Terrorism."

"We took Africans away from their country to build our way of ease and kept them enslaved and living in fear. Terrorism."

"We bombed Grenada and killed innocent civilians, babies, non-military personnel."

"We bombed the black civilian community of Panama with stealth bombers and killed unarmed teenage and toddlers, pregnant mothers and hard working fathers."

"We bombed Qaddafi's home, and killed his child. Blessed are they who bash your children's head against the rock."

"We bombed Iraq. We killed unarmed civilians trying to make a living. We bombed a plant in Sudan to pay back for the attack on our embassy, killed hundreds of hard working people, mothers and fathers who left home to go that day not knowing that they'd never get back home."

"We bombed Hiroshima. We bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon and we never batted an eye."

"Kids playing in the playground. Mothers picking up children after school. Civilians, not soldiers, people just trying to make it day by day."

"We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff that we have done overseas is now brought right back into our own front yards. America's chickens are coming home to roost."

"Violence begets violence. Hatred begets hatred. And terrorism begets terrorism. A white ambassador said that y'all, not a black militant. Not a reverend who preaches about racism. An ambassador whose eyes are wide open and who is trying to get us to wake up and move away from this dangerous precipice upon which we are now poised. The ambassador said the people we have wounded don't have the military capability we have. But they do have individuals who are willing to die and take thousands with them. And we need to come to grips with that."

He went on to describe seeing the photos of the aftermath of 9/11 because he was in Newark, N.J., when the planes struck. After turning on the TV and seeing the second plane slam into one of the twin towers, he spoke passionately about what if you never got a chance to say hello to your family again.

"What is the state of your family?" he asked.

And then he told his congregation that he loved them and asked the church to tell each other they loved themselves.

His sermon thesis:

1. This is a time for self-examination of ourselves and our families.

2. This is a time for social transformation (then he went on to say they won't put me on PBS or national cable for what I'm about to say. Talk about prophetic!)

"We have got to change the way we have been doing things as a society," he said.

Wright then said we can't stop messing over people and thinking they can't touch us. He said we may need to declare war on racism, injustice, and greed, instead of war on other countries.

"Maybe we need to declare war on AIDS. In five minutes the Congress found $40 billion to rebuild New York and the families that died in sudden death, do you think we can find the money to make medicine available for people who are dying a slow death? Maybe we need to declare war on the nation's healthcare system that leaves the nation's poor with no health coverage? Maybe we need to declare war on the mishandled educational system and provide quality education for everybody, every citizen, based on their ability to learn, not their ability to pay. This is a time for social transformation."

3. This is time to tell God thank you for all that he has provided and that he gave him and others another chance to do His will.

By the way, nowhere in this sermon did he said "God damn America." I'm not sure which sermon that came from.

This doesn't explain anything away, nor does it absolve Wright of using the N-word, but what it does do is add an accurate perspective to this conversation.

The point that I have always made as a journalist is that our job is to seek the truth, and not the partial truth.

I am also listening to the other sermons delivered by Rev. Wright that have been the subject of controversy.

And let me be clear: Where I believe he was wrong and not justified in what he said based upon the facts, I will say so. But where the facts support his argument, that will also be said.
So stay tuned. -- http://goo.gl/15Qhw

"America's Chickens are Coming Home to Roost"

" The Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Jr. of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ, and Barack Obama's pastor since 1988, told his congregation in a sermon on Sept. 16, 2001, "The Day of Jerusalem's Fall," that U.S. terrorism had precipitated Al-Qaeda's attack. "We bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye. We have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards." Wright concluded that "America's chickens are coming home to roost."
That last phrase has a history. " -- http://goo.gl/xaI7X

Right-wing and Racist Terrorism groups has emerged as an increasing threat

Right-wing and Racist Terrorism
http://goo.gl/zoG4d

DIGG ( Sockrates ): http://goo.gl/xzSMN

"....During the last couple of decades, terrorism from racist and right-wing groups has emerged as an increasing threat. This has been particularly noticeable in North America and Europe. Some of these forms of terrorism have long traditions: violence against ethnic, racial, sexual and political minorities has been going on for decades, and even centuries, in some countries. Lynchings of blacks in the USA, and violence against gypsies, refugees, and labour migrants in several European countries are almost part of the local lore. However, recent waves of immigration and asylum seekers have been met by alarming amounts of violence in some countries, prompting the political system and the public to respond — although sometimes rather hesitantly.

However, the public was mentally unprepared for a new form of right-wing terrorism that virtually exploded with the car bombing of the Federal office building in Oklahoma City in April 1995, killing 169 persons and wounding more than 400. In peaceful Sweden, neo-Nazis in 1999 murdered two police officers, assassinated a labour union activist, bombed a journalist and his son in their car and, in 1998, Nazis also sent a letter-bomb to the Swedish Minister of Justice....." - Continued: http://goo.gl/zoG4d

After Boring the Entire Digg Community, Jesus Schools a Banned Digg User

DIGG: http://goo.gl/vdrNY ( video ) "We have faith in our paranoia."

....

Re-Post:

Fav. forum comment of the month: Digg Patriots have expressed concern
Digg.com forum: http://goo.gl/stKs4

" anomaly100

Open Request:

Active members of the Digg Patriots [ http://notruepatriot.org/public/8-10.html ] have expressed concern over being down voted while others are being up voted. I ask you to show them compassion and allow them to carry on with their business as usual (wink wink) without feeling less popular or inferior than they already are.

Although the down/up voting is a big part of Digg, they prefer it's ignored while they are commenting. This is apparently extremely important to them, since Digg is their life's focus.

Hopefully this open request will 'pacify' active members of the Digg Patriots. I post this message in good faith asking nothing in return from the DP's (because I'm just nice like that).

Carry on. Express your feigned outrage (Grrr! Roar!).

Thank you & Sincerely,

Anomaly100 "

NY Times editor compares religious belief to belief that space aliens live among us


....and suggests that candidates for President should explain their faith.

[ NY Times article: http://goo.gl/2OIAv ]

" Oh I LIKE this guy!

Courtesy of Bill Keller of the NYT: [ http://goo.gl/2OIAv ]

If a candidate for president said he believed that space aliens dwell among us, would that affect your willingness to vote for him? Personally, I might not disqualify him out of hand; one out of three Americans believe we have had Visitors and, hey, who knows? But I would certainly want to ask a few questions. Like, where does he get his information? Does he talk to the aliens? Do they have an economic plan? This year’s Republican primary season offers us an important opportunity to confront our scruples about the privacy of faith in public life — and to get over them. We have an unusually large number of candidates, including putative front-runners, who belong to churches that are mysterious or suspect to many Americans. Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman are Mormons, a faith that many conservative Christians have been taught is a “cult” and that many others think is just weird. (Huntsman says he is not “overly religious.”) Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann are both affiliated with fervid subsets of evangelical Christianity — and Rick Santorum comes out of the most conservative wing of Catholicism — which has raised concerns about their respect for the separation of church and state, not to mention the separation of fact and fiction.

I honestly don’t care if Mitt Romney wears Mormon undergarments beneath his Gap skinny jeans, or if he believes that the stories of ancient American prophets were engraved on gold tablets and buried in upstate New York, or that Mormonism’s founding prophet practiced polygamy (which was disavowed by the church in 1890). Every faith has its baggage, and every faith holds beliefs that will seem bizarre to outsiders. I grew up believing that a priest could turn a bread wafer into the actual flesh of Christ. ...." -- Continued: http://goo.gl/wJRIt

townhall.com - Help Stop the Radical Environmentalists - joke of the day


Why do they want to kill the essential resources of capitalism and democracy?

It's simple: Capitalism and human progress are the antithesis of radicals' planned enviro-topia because they believe man and all we have achieved is the scourge of earth.

Unfortunately more and more people are being fooled into following the radical enviro-conspirators down this dangerous path. Our crashing stock market, growing unemployment- and Chinese control of essential minerals and economic ascendency are signs of their success.

Don't be fooled – they have a vision for America and it's not one either you or we share.

Let's STOP them now before it's too late. [ http://goo.gl/g4Pmi ]

Take the FIRST STEP right now to STOP the Radical Agenda.

Defend America by standing up and being counted – it'll cost you nothing other than your willingness to join.

Resourceful Earth, a project of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, is ready to kick some green and take the fight to them.

Our sole focus is to free the American resources of capitalism available under our feet that have been held hostage by Radical greens and their compliant EPA.

You know what will destroy the Radical Environmentalist Agenda to destroy our nation? They lose when we can produce cheap gas, affordable electricity from coal, and vast domestic supplies of minerals like copper and rare earths.

The radicals know it! That's why they are so strenuously fighting every plan to drill or mine.

Here's what we will do to fight back:

Dominate the public debate to show the public the radicals war on coal, oil, and mining is stalling economic growth.

Expose the corporate cowards, media know-nothings, and Green RINOs. the radicals hide behind. We will call them out by name and judge them by the company they keep.

Uncover and sever the big greens' funding from foundations, radicals, and foreign sources.

Finally we will fight in the trenches and no longer allow them to own the voice of the people in public hearings and the permitting process.

We are prepared to take the fight to them – for you all it takes is for you to join with us as we build this army.

Together we will dismantle the green agenda and restore American prosperity.
