Former CBS News president Richard Salant (1961 - 64 and 1966 - 79) explained the major media's role: "Our job is to give people not what they want, but what we decide they ought to have." ...and to this very day most Americans haven't noticed they're being brained washed! ~ N. Hooben
Yes, the American people have allowed this tragedy to build to a point when resolving this mess will itself be very messy. But not resolving this disaster will be even messier...
White House
propaganda secretary Jay Carney finally said something that was true, which I can
agree with… “This is not a scandal” referring to the IRS gestapo
operations run by Obama henchmen.
He’s right, it
isn’t a scandal. A scandal is something to read in the supermarket tabloid for
entertainment value. No, this is a full-blown conspiracy to use the full weight
and power of all federal agencies to go after and destroy all political
opponents of “the one” Barack Hussein Obama.
No matter who
you ask about what in this administration, you get the same answer…. “We know
nothing!”
The current
story involving Obama’s use of the IRS to target political opposition via going
after more than 500 patriotic action groups, their donors and their volunteers,
is but one piece of a much larger conspiracy to destroy the United States
beginning with all who would stand in the way of that agenda.
Yes, the
administration has been using the IRS to target all political opposition since taking
office in 2009. They went after Tea Party, 912, Patriot, Liberty, Christian,
conservative, republican, constitutional, pro-life and anti-global governance
organizations.
These efforts
were aimed at blocking “tax exempt” fund raising by placing the groups 501
status on hold. But they were also used to acquire lists of donors, officers and
volunteers, individual American citizens who were then targeted for audits and
delays in their individual tax refunds, a deeper attempt to cut-off the life
blood of any political movement, the funding, and intimidate those who stand
opposed to Obama.
Heads should
roll on the IRS story, starting with everyone in that agency involved in carrying out these
operations, those in control of the agency at the time those orders were issued
to staff, and every member of congress or the administration who pushed the IRS
to act in gestapo fashion as nothing more than a tool for the Democrat Party and Obama Administration. Nothing
short of broad criminal prosecution is going to do on this matter.
However, the IRS story is
just the tip of the proverbial iceberg…
It has also
come to light that Obama’s so-called Department of Justice (DOJ) has been
tapping the phones of journalists in the Associated Press (AP) and I suspect that when that
investigation gets into full swing, we will learn that Holder’s DOJ was tapping
journalists well beyond the AP, as well as republican members of congress.
The IRS story
has been reported by independent sources since the gestapo operation began in
2009. The main stream press ignored it all until the main stream press found
themselves in the crosshairs of the most criminally corrupt administration in
U.S. history.
Once the press
found itself a target of the Obama administration via Holder’s DOJ, the main
stream press had a sudden interest in multiple “scandals” they had ignored or
covered up for more than four years… Benghazi, the downing of SEAL Team 6 on Extortion 17, the IRS story, etc.
But
oh, there is more…
It has been
reported by independent sources and ignored by the main stream press for over
four years now that Obama’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had turned all
of its assets on Obama’s political opponents as well.
In a publicly
circulated operational report, Obama’s DHS openly sought to identify every
freedom loving constitutionally grounded American citizen as a “right-wing
extremist” and “potential domestic terrorist…” as REAL Islamic terrorists were
being imported to America by the Obama Administration, accounting for FIVE known
successful terror strikes on U.S. soil thus far on Obama’s watch.
These
anti-American witch hunts have been passed down through the ranks of federal,
state and local law enforcement and today, we see these organizations created
and paid to “Protect and Serve” American citizens using their authority and
power to attack, disarm, incarcerate and sometimes kill innocent law-abiding
Americans.
Obama’s
Department of Defense (DOD) has been assaulting the U.S. Military through
suicidal Rules of Engagement (ROE), Muslim infiltrations and gay social
experiments since 2009. They have American blood all over their hands in
Afghanistan, Iraq and Benghazi and will likely be found responsible for the
unnecessary death of 30 American soldiers in the downing of SEAL Team 6 in
Extortion 17.
We will soon
learn that the Obama Administration used the Federal Election Commission (FEC)
to run cover for the most massive federal election fraud in U.S. history which
resulted in stolen elections in 2008 and 2012, funded by hundreds of millions in
illegal campaign donations from foreign sources, most of it from all over the
Middle East.
We will learn
that Obama has been using the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to target
political opponents in the corporate world of American free enterprise too. More
shoes will drop over the coming days and weeks.
Obama has used
the Treasury Department to run up more than $17 trillion in U.S. debt and more
than $87 trillion in unfunded U.S. liabilities, all of which threatens to
destroy the entire U.S. economic system and the U.S. dollar.
Yes indeed,
Obama has been a busy little beaver in his mission to “fundamentally transform
the United States of America” and he is indeed, “standing with Islam” just as he
promised he would in his ego-driven autobiographies and his 2008 campaign for
dictatorial power.
So,
let’s sum it all up here…
Imagine what
would have happened if George W. Bush had done the following….
• Used the FEC to
cover up massive election fraud • Used DHS to identify all
Democrats and Liberals as “extremists” and “potential terrorists” setting the
entire intelligence, military and law enforcement community on a mission to
arrest, disarm, incarcerate and kill if necessary, all Democrats and
Liberals • Used the IRS to block ALL left-leaning 501
political action committees of just George Soros alone, stopping the billions
poured into left-wing causes by simply using the IRS to go after those groups
and all of their donors • Used the DOJ to wiretap all
journalists to control the messaging like Goebbels, and then wiretap all
Democrat members of congress in their private chambers in order to hear their
every conversation • Used the DOD to dismantle and destroy
the U.S. Military, leaving our soldiers like sitting ducks under insane ROE on
the field of battle and leaving our diplomats unprotected and
behind • Used the SEC to go after Democrat companies like
Progressive Insurance, GEICO, Microsoft and every film and music enterprise in
Hollywood • And then used the Treasury Department to destroy
the U.S. economy and even the U.S. currency so that no “middle class” voter
could find a job • All while importing known terrorists from
around the globe, killing millions of Natural Born Americans via abortion and
making room for millions of illegal aliens with an anti-American vision for
America…
What would
American Democrats have done to George W. Bush had he done what the Obama
Administration has been doing ever since illegally seizing control of the
federal government on January 20, 2009?
In America,
any one of these criminal acts would rise to the level of impeachment in a
heartbeat. But all of these acts combined, advanced by numerous key actors and
hundreds if not thousands of useful idiots, rises to the level of conspiracy to
commit treason. An act punishable by death!
It can
no longer be denied or ignored; our nation is under siege…
Every federal
agency has been set on a war footing against the American people. Contrary to
the steady flow of utter bullshit spewing from the mouths of left-wing
operatives, Barack Hussein Obama is directly involved in every decision made in
the Federal Government, the buck absolutely stops with him on all of these
events.
At a bare
minimum, congress should immediately move for impeachment of what is clearly the
most blatantly corrupt administration in all of American history. If congress
fails to do so, Americans must assume that congress is entirely complicit in all
of it, or completely impotent against it.
A VERY
Real Constitutional Crisis
Our problem is
as follows, and this has been the problem since 20 January 2009…
Barack Hussein
Obama MUST be held fully accountable for numerous blatant acts of treason,
period. If this does not happen, America is finished forever. This by itself
constitutes a “constitutional crisis…” but is again, only the tip of the
iceberg.
Due to the
massive conspiracy surrounding what can only be titled The Obama Crisis, and all
of the key figures involved in that conspiracy to “fundamentally change
America,” no one in the constitution chain of succession to the Oval Office can
be entrusted with that office today.
Constitutional Chain of
Succession – ALL Co-Conspirators
1. The Vice
President Joseph Biden 2. Speaker of the House John
Boehner 3. President pro tempore of the Senate Patrick
Leahy 4. Secretary of State John
Kerry 5. Secretary of the Treasury Jacob
Lew 6. Secretary of Defense Chuck
Hagel 7. Attorney General Eric Holder 8.
Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewel 9. Secretary of
Agriculture Tom Vilsack 10. Secretary of Commerce Rebecca
Blank (acting) 11. Secretary of Labor Seth D. Harris
(acting) 12. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen
Sebelius 13. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
Shaun Donovan 14. Secretary of Transportation Ray
LaHood 15. Secretary of Energy Daniel Poneman
(acting) 16. Secretary of Education Arne
Duncan 17. Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric
Shinseki 18. Secretary of Homeland Security Janet
Napolitano
This is the
very real constitutional crisis America has been living under since 20 January
2009 and every member of congress knows it, and so does every member of the U.S.
Supreme Court. This is the real constitutional crisis we face… who can hold
these offices once vacated, until a special emergency election can be
held?
Because every
individual listed in the constitutional line of succession is directly involved
in the conspiracy, the cover-up or both, none of them can replace Barack Hussein
Obama as President of the United States and Commander-in-Chief of the U.S.
Military.
Many on this
list must face criminal charges along with Barack Hussein Obama, including
former Obama appointees Hillary Clinton and Leon Panetta. Others must resign or be
removed from office for their supporting roles in this massive
conspiracy.
This cannot
wait until the next election, much less until the 2016 election. This ship must
be turned about-face right now! Unless the fraud of the 2012 election is
rectified, elections are off the table as a solution.
People have to
be removed from office, charged with crimes, put in prison and made an example
of… and no matter how difficult it is the American people must insist that our
government be cleansed of all frauds, infiltrators and criminals.
Yes, the
American people have allowed this tragedy to build to a point when resolving
this mess will itself be very messy. But not resolving this disaster will be
even messier and disasters are not like wine, they do not get better with
time.
Is this enough
for the average American to wake up and get engaged yet? If it isn’t, America
isn’t America anymore and it will never be America ever again.

Quote worth quoting...
With Nancy Pelosi repeatedly telling audiences about
hearing voices of deceased women, and Barack Obama regarded by many as
dangerously narcissistic, the mental-emotional world of leftists is actually
tantamount to a mental disorder. The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness –
can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to
adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the
liberal mind.When the modern liberal mind whines about
imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to
run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the
liberal mind becomes painfully obvious. ~ Lyle H. Rossiter, Jr., MD
I have no qualms about Roy's speech...an example of great courage during these perilous times. With the Obama administration pushing an anti-Christian agenda in this land of freedom of speech and religion it is time the sleeping giant awoke (recall General Yamamoto's famous words, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant.") and Roy Costner is a giant among his peers.
A few years ago I met a person whom I got to know earlier from her website. When I found out she was from Austin, Texas I arranged a meeting with her while visiting my daughter (who also lives in Austin). This brilliant lady had written a book in which she gave me a signed copy and one of the themes that she expressed was that of helping our youth. "Educating our youth to the truth.", she told me, was a worthy objective that would help save our country from the likes of Obama and company. I no longer hear from the lady and her website is down...I suspect that she has passed on for those reasons and her age which I guessed to be in her late 80's...maybe early 90's. It seems as though some parents must have heard from the same lady, "Educate our youth to the truth." Were Roy's parents listening? You be the judge.
Meanwhile we have a guy in the White House that lead many to suggest that he is not fit to lead. (see video below) ↓ ~ Norman E. Hooben
Ref: "at least not on purpose"
Does this mean that if you die as a result of poisoning that it would be called an accidental death or would Monsanto argue it was due to natural causes?
For those of you who are not familar with Monsanto and their GMO's, Monsanto has experimented with food seeds and were successful with the development of seeds resistant to their weed killer Round-Up. Maybe when you die from eating all that healthy whole wheat bread you won't have any weeds growing around your headstone. ~ Norman E. Hooben
It's on! Farmers begin
suing Monsanto over genetic pollution of wheat crops
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
(NaturalNews) The next wave of farmer backlash against Monsanto has just been
unleashed by Ernest Barnes, a wheat farmer in Morton County, Kansas. He filed suit this week in the U.S. District Court in Wichita, Kansas,
alleging that Monsanto's genetic pollution has financially damaged himself and
other farmers.
Barnes' case appears to be well supported by the facts: Last week the USDA announced the shock discovery that genetically
engineered wheat strains from Monsanto's open-field experiments had escaped
and spread into commercial wheat farms. Almost immediately, Japan and South Korea cancelled wheat purchase contracts from
the United States, and more cancellations are expected to follow. The more
countries reject U.S. wheat due to GMO contamination (genetic pollution), the
lower wheat prices will plunge and the more economic damage will be felt by
U.S. farmers.
Monsanto now a confirmed
genetic polluter
GMO wheat (i.e. "GE wheat") has never been
commercially grown in the United States... at least not on purpose.
Experimental fields were approved by the USDA and planted across 16 U.S.
states. Until now, it was not known that these GE wheat experiments escaped
their designated field plots and began to spread as a form of self-replicating
genetic pollution.
Humanity has reached a tipping point of developing technology so profound
that it can destroy the human race; yet this rise of "science" has in
no way been matched by a rise in consciousness or ethics. Today, science
operates with total disregard for the future of life on Earth, and it scoffs at
the idea of balancing scientific "progress" with caution, ethics or
reasonable safeguards. Unbridled experiments like GMOs have unleashed
self-replicating genetic pollution that now threatens the integrity of food
crops around the world, potentially threatening the global food supply.
Those words, it turns out, were prophetic. We are now faced with precisely this
situation in the U.S. agricultural sector, and farmers are starting to feel the
economic losses. GMOs are just one of several areas where so-called
"science" actually threatens humanity with total destruction.
The petition filed by Barnes claims Monsanto knew there was a high risk the
genetically modified wheat it was testing could contaminate other varieties of
wheat, and the company failed to follow proper procedures to keep the wheat
contained.
Monsanto tested the wheat in many states, including Kansas, the top U.S.
wheat-producing state, but did not disclose to farmers in those states that it
was testing the controversial wheat there, the petition states.
Monsanto to sue the
farmers?
Monsanto claims it will mount a "vigorous defense"
against the lawsuit, expressing that it takes no responsibility whatsoever for
all the genetic pollution it spews across America's farm lands. If Monsanto's
genetically modified, toxin-producing crops just happen to infect your
commercial crops, then that's your fault!
In fact, I'm surprised Monsanto hasn't announced plans to sue all these farmers
for "stealing" its "intellectual property." That's what the
company has done before, of course: sued farmers whose fields were contaminated
by Monsanto's genetic pollutants.
Is this not the height of corporate evil? When British Petroleum spills
billions of gallons of oil in the Gulf of Mexico, it at least pretends to be
sorry about it. But when Monsanto spews its genetic pollution all over the
planet, it blames the farmers! It would be like if BP drove an oil tanker right
into your front yard, dumped a thousand gallons of oil on your lawn, then sued
you for stealing their oil.
That's the Monsanto model. And it's yet another example of the total runaway
criminality of this evil corporation that frankly should have its corporate
charter yanked. This is one business that deserves to be permanently put out
of business and never allowed to operate again. When corporations become
such arrogant, destructive and threatening monsters that stomp on our farmers
and spew their genetic jizz all across the planet like a bunch of sicko ag
perverts, something has gone terribly wrong and needs to be stopped.
The recent March Against Monsanto was only the beginning. I even foresee a day
when millions of citizens from around the world engage in a far more aggressive
march on the Monsanto headquarters and literally tear the place apart brick by
brick until this corporate demon is permanently excised from our planet.
We are winning the war
against Monsanto
I also predict -- but do not condone this violence -- that
if Monsanto continues to engage in its crimes against farmers, nature and
humanity, we are going to start seeing well-planned "acts of
justice" against Monsanto executives, employees and scientists. I
literally had a bizarre, disturbing dream the other night where a band of
activists had kidnapped a Monsanto executive, tied him to a chair, and forced
him to admit to all the crimes Monsanto has committed while being filmed on
camera. The videos were then released on the internet. I realize this sounds a
lot like the plot of a major motion picture, but I believe this could become
reality if Monsanto continues on its current path.
Again, for the record, I do not condone the kidnapping of Monsanto executives.
Kidnappings and executions are no way to resolve problems in a civilized
society. If such an act actually takes place, it would actually hurt the
anti-GMO movement and allow the government to paint all GMO protesters as
"potential terrorists." So if anyone out there is actually thinking
of doing this, please redirect your energy and focus into non-violent
protests and other similar actions that are already making tremendous
progress. As I said recently on Natural News, I believe we have reached a tipping point of success against Monsanto.
Let's continue to pressure Monsanto in a grassroots, non-violent way, okay?
Emotional Testimony of Becky Gerritson over IRS Scutiny before Congressional Investigation Committee, June 4, 2013
A lot of finger pointing has been going on regarding the recent IRS' illegal activity but one thing is for certain, all fingers will eventually point to Barack Husein Obama...at the moment he is in the 'I-don't-know-nothing' mode. Remember this: All mission objectives are planned at the top echelons and all orders to reach those objectives come from the command center...and the command center gets the go ahead from the chief honcho...
Mr. Jackson is running for Lt. Governor of Virginia...that may be good for the state of virginia but the rest of the states need him in the United States Senate...and maybe even in the White House!
Socialists,
therefore, by endeavoring to transfer the possessions of individuals to the
community at large, strike at the interests of every wage-earner, since they
would deprive him of the liberty of disposing of his wages, and thereby of all
hope and possibility of increasing his resources and of bettering his condition
in life.
"...The discussion is not
easy, nor is it void of danger. It is no easy matter to define the relative
rights and mutual duties of the rich and of the poor, of capital and of labor.
And the danger lies in this, that crafty agitators are intent on making use of
these differences of opinion to pervert men's judgments and to stir up the
people to revolt.
3. In any case we clearly
see, and on this there is general agreement, that some opportune remedy must be
found quickly for the misery and wretchedness pressing so unjustly on the
majority of the working class: for the ancient workingmen's guilds were abolished in the
last century, and no other protective organization took their place. Public
institutions and the laws set aside the ancient religion. Hence, by degrees it
has come to pass that working men have been surrendered, isolated and helpless,
to the hardheartedness of employers and the greed of unchecked competition. The
mischief has been increased by rapacious usury, which, although more than once
condemned by the Church, is nevertheless, under a different guise, but with like
injustice, still practiced by covetous and grasping men. To this must be added
that the hiring of labor and the conduct of trade are concentrated in the hands
of comparatively few; so that a small number of very rich men have been able to
lay upon the teeming masses of the laboring poor a yoke little better than that
of slavery itself.
4. To remedy these wrongs the
socialists, working on the poor man's envy of the rich, are striving to do away
with private property, and contend that individual possessions should become the
common property of all, to be administered by the State or by municipal bodies.
They hold that by thus transferring property from private individuals to the
community, the present mischievous state of things will be set to rights,
inasmuch as each citizen will then get his fair share of whatever there is to
enjoy. But their
contentions are so clearly powerless to end the controversy that were they
carried into effect the working man himself would be among the first to suffer.
They are, moreover, emphatically unjust, for they would rob the lawful
possessor, distort the functions of the State, and create utter confusion in the
community.
5. It is surely
undeniable that, when a man engages in remunerative labor, the impelling reason
and motive of his work is to obtain property, and thereafter to hold it as his
very own. If one man hires out to another his strength or skill, he does so for
the purpose of receiving in return what is necessary for the satisfaction of his
needs; he therefore expressly intends to acquire a right full and real, not only
to the remuneration, but also to the disposal of such remuneration, just as he
pleases. Thus, if he lives sparingly, saves money, and, for greater security,
invests his savings in land, the land, in such case, is only his wages under
another form; and, consequently, a working man's little estate thus purchased
should be as completely at his full disposal as are the wages he receives for
his labor. But it is precisely in such power of disposal that ownership obtains,
whether the property consist of land or chattels. Socialists,
therefore, by endeavoring to transfer the possessions of individuals to the
community at large, strike at the interests of every wage-earner, since they
would deprive him of the liberty of disposing of his wages, and thereby of all
hope and possibility of increasing his resources and of bettering his condition
in life.
6. What is of far greater
moment, however, is the fact that the remedy they propose is manifestly against
justice. For, every man has by nature the right to
possess property as his own. This is one of the chief points of
distinction between man and the animal creation, for the brute has no power of
self direction, but is governed by two main instincts, which keep his powers on
the alert, impel him to develop them in a fitting manner, and stimulate and
determine him to action without any power of choice. One of these instincts is
self preservation, the other the propagation of the species. Both can attain
their purpose by means of things which lie within range; beyond their verge the
brute creation cannot go, for they are moved to action by their senses only, and
in the special direction which these suggest. But with man it is wholly
different. He possesses, on the one hand, the full perfection of the animal
being, and hence enjoys at least as much as the rest of the animal kind, the
fruition of things material. But animal nature, however perfect, is far from
representing the human being in its completeness, and is in truth but humanity's
humble handmaid, made to serve and to obey. It is the mind, or reason, which is
the predominant element in us who are human creatures; it is this which renders
a human being human, and distinguishes him essentially from the brute. And on
this very account - that man alone among the animal
creation is endowed with reason - it must be within his right to possess things
not merely for temporary and momentary use, as other living things do, but to
have and to hold them in stable and permanent possession; he must have not only
things that perish in the use, but those also which, though they have been
reduced into use, continue for further use in after time.
7. This becomes still
more clearly evident if man's nature be considered a little more deeply. For
man, fathoming by his faculty of reason matters without number, linking the
future with the present, and being master of his own acts, guides his ways under
the eternal law and the power of God, whose providence governs all things.
Wherefore, it is in his power to exercise his choice not only as to matters that
regard his present welfare, but also about those which he deems may be for his
advantage in time yet to come. Hence, man not only should possess the fruits of the
earth, but also the very soil, inasmuch as from the produce of the earth he has
to lay by provision for the future. Man's needs do not die out, but forever
recur; although satisfied today, they demand fresh supplies for tomorrow. Nature
accordingly must have given to man a source that is stable and remaining always
with him, from which he might look to draw continual supplies. And this stable
condition of things he finds solely in the earth and its fruits. There is no
need to bring in the State.Man
precedes the State, and possesses, prior to the formation of any State, the
right of providing for the substance of his
body.
8. The fact that God has
given the earth for the use and enjoyment of the whole human race can in no way
be a bar to the owning of private property. For God has granted the earth to
mankind in general, not in the sense that all without distinction can deal with
it as they like, but rather that no part of it was assigned to any one in
particular, and that the limits of private possession have been left to be fixed
by man's own industry, and by the laws of individual races."
Source: United States Representative Martha Roby Roby Bill Affirms State Authority in Education
Time for Washington to respect the authority of state and local leaders to define curriculum and set assessment policy
In an effort to rein in the Obama Administration’s overreaching attempts to dictate state education policies and standards, U.S. Representative Martha Roby (R-AL) today introduced legislation prohibiting the federal government from making special funding grants and coveted regulation waivers contingent on whether a state is using certain curriculum or assessment policies.
States should indeed set standards – high standards - for education, Roby said. While collaboration between states can add value in setting curriculum and assessment policies, the unwelcome intrusion of the federal government into the process “invariably comes with a political agenda from Washington.”
“The Executive Branch has exceeded its appropriate reach where state education policy is concerned, and it’s time to rein it in,” Rep. Roby said. “The Defending State Authority Over Education Act will prevent undue influence by the federal government by taking away the Department of Education’s ability to attach curriculum and assessment policy strings to special grants and waivers. Local and state leaders – those who have direct interaction with parents and teachers in their communities – are best positioned to determine policies that affect Alabama’s students. Washington bureaucrats are not.”
Rep. Roby explained the bill in-depth in an op-ed running today’s Montgomery Advertiser, which can be viewed online here.
Rep. Roby also outlines the bill in a video message, which can be viewed online here.
The Defending State Authority Over Education Act would prevent any officer of the federal government from using “grants, contracts, or other cooperative agreements” to “mandate, direct, or control” a state’s educational standards or curriculum. The bill would specifically prohibit the U.S. Secretary of Education from influencing, incentivizing, or coercing a state to participate in a particular multistate educational partnership. Further, it would prohibit making the approval of waivers or grants contingent on whether a state has adopted any specific “academic standard,” “assessment, “or “evaluation system.”
Rep. Roby is working with fellow House Education and the Workforce Committee Member Rep. Todd Rokita (R-IN) to promote the bill and highlight this issue as the Committee begins taking up reauthorization of the nation’s K-12 education law, known as the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), in the coming months. Rep. Rokita chairs the Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Education.
Reiterating her support for high education standards, Rep. Roby said state decisions about such policies are best made without undue pressure from Washington.
“Count me among those who believe Alabama should indeed set statewide standards—high standards that challenge students, build critical thinking skills, and enhance opportunities to succeed. As a mother of a child that attends public school, I’m glad our state has made an effort to raise its standards in recent years when we lagged behind for so long.
“However welcome the collaboration between states may be, the intrusion of the federal government – directly or indirectly – into the process is inappropriate. It invariably comes with a political agenda from Washington. And, unfortunately, the Obama Administration has improperly inserted itself into state education policy making.”

Our society chooses to pay for bastards and wonders why the number of bastards increases. Our society refuses to support poor families with married fathers in residence, and wonders why the number of single mothers increases. Our society pays for single motherhood, and wonders why we get it. Our society gives stipends to unemployed and/or homeless males, and wonders why we get more and more of them. — Bill Quick (More like this here) The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” ~ Author Unknown
The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap-and-trade," and the real goal of the "stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control.

They and will make matters much worse, for that is their design. ~ November 23, 2009 Cloward-Piven Government By James Simpson

The truth to the matter is that Obama lies but he does it with such finess that the easily fooled are easily fooled. ~ Norman E. Hooben
"Going for the grandest illusion of all, [Obama] ... told the New York Times: 'We've actually been operating in a way that has been entirely consistent with free-market principles.' Excuse me while I pick my jaw off the ground. Everyone knows -- or should know -- that putting more and more of the government in charge of more and more of the economy is entirely inconsistent with free-market principles. This means that the president's statement to the contrary is what is known as a big lie." --columnist Diana West

Hooben in response to a writer who complained of not having the honor of serving in the U.S. Military)
"If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a small chance of survival. There may even be a worse case: you may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." -Winston Churchill

There was a Chemistry professor in a large college that had some Exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab the Prof noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back And stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.
In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked,'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?' The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly, the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity. The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America.
The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms- just a little at a time.
One should always remember 'There is no such thing as a free Lunch!' Also, 'You can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
You apparently don't share a sense of patriotism, Americanism, freedomism, or whatever kind of 'ism' that true Americans believe in... You do however, display a bit of socialism, communism, marxism or whatever kind of 'ism' that you make excuses for... ~ Norman E. Hooben (in response to an Obama supporter's views about the ACS census)
Anation that knows not from where it came, knows not where it is going!Today, Americans know too little about the foundations of our nation.The result is a nation now in chaos, its people unable to discern what is wrong with the transformation (paradigm shift) of our society and form of government that, if left unchecked, will destroy every facet of freedom, liberty and justice.The price of freedom is vigilance; the price of vigilance is knowledge.Many of America's founding documents are now available on the web. ~
