Impressed by the effectiveness of the liberal
Center for American Progress, a group of conservative journalists and operatives are preparing to engage in their own sincerest form of flattery — launching an advocacy group with a similar name and mission but very different target.
Part assault on CAP and part homage, the Center for American Freedom’s goal is to wage a well-funded assault on the
Obama White House and the liberal domination of partisan online media.
June 30 2010 William Hodges has long been a critic of the Obama Administration, but recently while posting a news article, his facebook account was deactivated, and merely 12 hours later an FBI agents and Secret Service Agents interviewed him and all his friends on facebook.
There is something to that image, of a second grader on a chair in a spare police office, his feet not reaching the floor, his face a blur of tears and mud and snot, his heart pounding, and all he wants is to go home, to be far away from these frightening men, some of whom are nice but some of whom are yelling, all of whom are keeping him from his Baba, his Daddy, all of whom represent so much that is wrong in his young life, why his mother cries at night and his brother can’t build a new house and his sister can’t get to university in the morning and his Baba’s friend was shot — it is an image that makes the breath catch in the throat
May 7 2011 I don't trust known liars. I don't trust a government that launched a middle-east strategy based on a boogeyman and fabricated connections to a terrorist organization with a leader whom the US trained. I don't believe it is all a coincidence that high level officials were warned to not fly that day, or that Norad didn't scramble planes, and flight tapes were crushed and destroyed and thrown in garbage cans
And, I am sick of being called a 'conspiracy theorist' when the evidence contradicts their own claims and bolsters the case for logical scrutiny and a truly independent investigation. The killing of Osama Bin Laden has not been proven, and if we had him in our custody, that would have been very simple to do.
Why the hell didn't we?
It’s sometimes suggested that American car companies quit making more efficient cars and trucks after 1980 or so. But that’s not strictly true, according to MIT economist Christopher Knittel. In a new paper for the American Economic Review, building off his earlier research (PDF), Knittel calculates that automakers actually boosted vehicle fuel efficiency a whopping 60 percent between 1980 and 2006. Engine technology got better by leaps and bounds. It’s just that most of those improvements went toward making cars bigger and more powerful — and, as a result, all those advances barely increased gas mileage.

Lets face it, the only reason those drug ads are illegal for the most part is that the pharmaceuticals hate competing with their own products re-imported from other countries.
The low point came when the U.S. Government claimed we couldn't bring in the drugs from Canada because it wasn't safe.
And they said it with a straight face.
"All the power is in the hands of the pipeline companies," said Chris Wilson, an independent environmental consultant from Texas who opposes the Keystone XL. Landowners along the route "are really screwed…there's no one in the government they can call for help."
While everyone else is frantically searching for what they might need for several days away from home with minimal comforts, the person who has a ready-made survival pack can just pick it up and walk out the door, confident in having everything necessary to survive the harsh conditions of a forced evacuation.
There are just about as many names for a survival pack as there are varieties of the equipment they contain. There are survival kits, disaster kits, emergency survival bags, bug out bags, emergency packs, disaster survival bags, emergency medical kits, and so on.
A Survival Pack of any kind should be personal and not just something picked out of an advertisement, paid for then stored somewhere "to keep it out of the way."
Your pack should reflect what you need in an emergency survival situation. It is perfectly okay to buy a survival pack pre-made, but open it up and personalize the contents.
There is always extra room in any survival pack that you might buy. This is done purposely because everybody has their own personal equipment to add to any stock kit.
( I seem to recall reports of UK ads promoting this - though sunscreen these days may contain dangerous nanotech)
While Zero Hedge readers have long known about the eerie phenomenon known as China’s ghost cities (and ghost malls), Australia’s SBS’ Dateline has done a terrific documentary on the topic of “64 million empty apartments in China.
What constitutes a balance between work and life? The OECD settled on three chief variables: (1) The share of the labor force that works extreme hours; (2) leisure time; and (3) employment rates for women who have children. The United States, which leads most of the world in share of mothers who are working, lagged in leisure time and share of overworked employees.

You're right****. But that piece of information is only sauce on the cake. Only somebody from outside the US as I am could say that what I believed was that Clinton was the one hot to invade Iran and it was merely the pretext to do so.( If that implies 911 a 'False Flag' : that doesn't mean the idea is wrong ! The crime scene investigation - wasn't. And the much maligned Taliban never refused to hand over Osama : they required judicial process including particulars substantiating the allegation before they would do so. The whole thing stank. Bin Laden is Saudi royalty who close personal friends of the Bush family. The FBI escorted his family out of the country a week after 911. )
PakAlert had a wonderful rundown including names and bios of parties with an interest in this sort of activity.
