#107. To: Goldi-Lox (#79) Open letter to Goldi First off, I appreciate the fact that you re-instated my account, although on a probationary status only. Perhaps you actually read the exchanges between myself and Mad Dog that led up to my response, and decided that I was provoked to make my somewhat over-the-top comment to the sleaze-bag. You have been more than gracious by allowing me the privilege of posting again, and under normal circumstances, I would be happy to continue doing so. However, with all due respect, you have capitulated to evil by allowing this once great site to become infested with the likes of mentally disturbed, psychotic, juvenile delinquents like Mad Dog, yukon, ...

Tuesday, December 14, 2010 "Our 'neoconservatives' are neither new nor conservative, but old as Bablyon and evil as Hell." --Edward Abbey If you believed that the NeoCons disappeared after the 2008 election, how soon do you forget? With the next round in the never-ending beltway two-step, the Republican leadership readies their hold of the House of Representatives agenda. The Tea Party freshmen promise to bring a breath of fresh air to a stuffy chamber. Time will tell if their pledge of hope will pan out. What is known with certainty is that the entrenched GOP leadership continues with their dedication to the policies that exemplify their NeoCon mindset. So what is ...
Exclusive: 'The Fourth Estate Is Dead,' Ex-CIA Analyst Declares Post Date: 2010-12-11 19:21:14 by Brian S

Traditional lines of communication between the people and the press have fallen into such disrepair in America that a whole new approach is necessary to challenge the military-industrial-governmental complex, according to a former CIA analyst sympathetic to WikiLeaks. "The Fourth Estate is dead," Ray McGovern, of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity, told Raw Story in an exclusive interview. "The Fourth Estate in his country has been captured by government and corporations, the military-industrial complex, the intelligence apparatus. Captive! So, there is no Fourth Estate." McGovern explained that the term the "Fourth Estate," known today as the news ...
Swindle of the year (Stealth Stimulus) Post Date: 2010-12-10 10:34:59 by go65
10 Comments
Barack Obama won the great tax-cut showdown of 2010 - and House Democrats don't have a clue that he did. In the deal struck this week, the president negotiated the biggest stimulus in American history, larger than his $814 billion 2009 stimulus package. It will pump a trillion borrowed Chinese dollars into the U.S. economy over the next two years - which just happen to be the two years of the run-up to the next presidential election. This is a defeat? If Obama had asked for a second stimulus directly, he would have been laughed out of town. Stimulus I was so reviled that the Democrats banished the word from their lexicon throughout the 2010 campaign. And yet, despite a very weak ...

Why the Obama Tax Deal Confirms the Republican Worldview Post Date: 2010-12-09 18:48:59 by Brian S
5 Comments
Apart from its extraordinary cost and regressive tilt, the tax deal negotiated between the president and the Republicans has another fatal flaw. It confirms the Republican worldview. Americans want to know what happened to the economy and how to fix it. At least Republicans have a story -- the same one they've been flogging for thirty years. The bad economy is big government's fault and the solution is to shrink government. Here's the real story. For three decades, an increasing share of the benefits of economic growth have gone to the top 1 percent. Thirty years ago, the top got 9 percent of total income. Now they take in almost a quarter. Meanwhile, the earnings of the ...
Analysis: WikiLeaks Battle: A New Amateur Face Of Cyber War? Post Date: 2010-12-09 12:59:07 by Brian S
1 Comments
LONDON (Reuters) The website attacks launched by supporters of WikiLeaks show 21st-century cyber warfare evolving into a more amateur and anarchic affair than many predicted. While most countries have plowed much more attention and resources into cyber security in recent years, most of the debate has focused on the threat from militant groups such as al Qaeda or mainstream state on state conflict. But attempts to silence WikiLeaks after the leaking of some 250,000 classified State Department cables seem to have produced something rather different -- something of a popular rebellion amongst hundreds or thousands of tech-savvy activists. "The first serious infowar is now ...
How Can a Religious Person Justify Being a Slumlord Post Date: 2010-12-08 15:34:49 by Brian S

The pious Orthodox Jew who is also a notorious slumlordnow there's a touchy subject, especially inside the large and diverse community of Jews in New York. After the Voice published its series this spring on the city's 10 worst landlords, which included some religious Jews, Rabbi Jill Jacobs tackled the topic, writing a column titled "When the Slumlords Are Us" for the Forward. This was already a familiar subject for the Conservative rabbi and activist. "When I was working at a housing-rights organization while doing my rabbinical training," she tells the Voice, "the No. 1 question I got from tenants was, 'Why is my bad landlord a religious ...
Julian Assange’s EgoLeaks Post Date: 2010-12-08 14:57:10 by WhiteSands

WikiLeaks is the journalistic equivalent of the art world’s Piss Christ — a product of the cynical postmodern West.
Julian Assange, the public face of WikiLeaks, is, among many things, cowardly. Courageousness would involve meeting with Iranian dissidents, Russian journalists, Pakistani Christians, or Chinese human-rights activists — and then releasing any confidential information that they might have about the torment institutionalized by their countries’ authoritarian regimes. That would be risky to Assange, however, since such governments do not customarily go to court against their leakers; they gulag them — or liquidate them.
So, instead, Assange navigates through the European ...
Israel: Using Wikileaks to Build a Straw Man Post Date: 2010-12-08 14:09:25 by Brian S

From the day the first batch of Wikileaks appeared in the international press, the Israelis were crowing "this is good for us". Seizing on documents demonstrating that some Arab leaders bear ill-will toward Iran, the Israeli spin machine went into action. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasted that Our region has been hostage to a narrative that is the result of 60 years of propaganda, which paints Israel as the greatest threat, claiming that Iran had, in fact, eclipsed the Palestinian issue as the number one concern of the Arab World. Another prominent Israeli official gloated that "Iran was now ten times more important than Palestine" and that it ...

Immigration: Congress is expected to vote on the Dream Act on Wednesday, providing a path to citizenship to millions of illegal immigrant youth. It's a bad precedent that uses kids, costs taxpayers and invites new amnesties. After years of failing to sell mass amnesty to voters, the open-borders lobby has turned to tugging at Americans' heartstrings, presenting treacly stories of illegal immigrants brought here as children who then bettered themselves here. Somehow legalizing this group ahead of all the other people awaiting immigration visas legally is supposed to specially benefit all of us, even though the most obvious beneficiaries are the individuals themselves. But out of ...
Obama sells out the left: a Republican win on taxes Post Date: 2010-12-07 01:50:29 by WhiteSands

There really is no other way to say it: the Republicans won, the liberal Democrats lost, and the president sided with the Republicans. The subject, of course, is an agreement to extend all the Bust tax cuts. The president tonight announced a "bipartisan framework" for agreement on, among other things, to extend the Bush tax cuts for two years. A Republican House aide tells me tonight it is "a damn good deal." And so it is, from the perspective of conservatives. As they've been demanding, all of the Bush tax cuts are extended for two years. The estate tax that was due to pop back up to a rate of 55 percent was retained, but with a $5 million exemption and at a rate ...

Well look who strolled back into town? The Republican grown-ups. And the Christmas presents they are bringing the country? A nuclear arms treaty with the Russians. Higher taxes. Earmarks. And a warm embrace of Hispanic immigrants, including the illegal ones.

What happened to that election you thought you won?

Rep. Peter King characterizes WikiLeaks as a terrorist organization, but whos the real terrorist-supporter? Wasnt it Rep. King who signed a statement of support for the National Council of Resistance, a front for the Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK), which appears on the State Departments list of designated terrorist organizations? The MEK has killed American diplomatic personnel, and is described as a fanatic cult by many observers: its supporters, who adhere to a weird combination of Marxism and Islam, were succored by Saddam Hussein in Iraq before the US invasion, where they still persist (under US guard) to this day. Kings support for ...

(CNN) -- The first date is over. Not much happened. President Obama and his new governing partners, the House and Senate Republicans, met at the White House along with the Democratic leaders and discussed the unsolvable issues between them. Even though they made no decisions and both sides went their separate ways, they agreed to start negotiations on extending the tax cuts. That in itself is the beginning of a positive process. They actually talked to each other and talked of a plan for action. As with real dating, both sides have to get along or nothing will happen. So maybe this situation has more in common with an arranged marriage. The American voters are the substitute parents, and ...
Analysis: Hard Case For U.S. Against WikiLeaks's Assange Post Date: 2010-12-01 00:41:31 by Brian S

(Reuters) - U.S. authorities could face insurmountable legal hurdles if they try to bring criminal charges against elusive WikiLeaks chief Julian Assange, even if he sets foot on U.S. soil. The Justice Department is investigating a series of leaks of hundreds of thousands of classified U.S. documents that the whistleblower website has provided to news media and made public on its own website. But three specialists in espionage law said prosecuting someone like Assange on those charges would require evidence the defendant was not only in contact with representatives of a foreign power but also intended to provide them with secrets. No such evidence has surfaced, or has even been alleged, ...

Wikileaks and the New Global Order: America’s Wake-up Call Post Date: 2010-11-30 15:44:54 by Brian S

The Wikileaks disclosure this week of confidential cables from United States embassies has been debated chiefly in terms either of the damage to Washingtons reputation or of the questions it raises about national security and freedom of the press. The headlines aside, most of the information so far revealed from the 250,000 documents is hardly earth-shattering, even if it often runs starkly counter to the official narrative of the US as the benevolent global policeman, trying to maintain order amid an often unruly rabble of underlings.Is it really surprising that US officials appear to have been trying to spy on senior United Nations staff, and just about everyone else for that ...
Leaked Cables Reveal America’s 'Profound Hatred Of Democracy,’ Chomsky Declares Post Date: 2010-11-30 15:34:50 by Brian S

What does the release of over 250,000 secret US State Department cables by WikiLeaks ultimately reflect? "What that reveals is the profound hatred for democracy on the part of our political leadership and of course the Israeli political leadership," Noam Chomsky, renowned American linguist and political dissident, told Democracy Now's Amy Goodman on Tuesday. In the context of Israeli and US policymakers view of Iran shown in the cables, Chomsky said that the perspectives of the leadership stand in sharp contrast to the opinions of the populations they supposedly serve.

Deficit Commission Plan Would Kill 4 Million Jobs, Analysis Finds Post Date: 2010-11-29 18:31:04 by Brian S

The preliminary deficit reduction plan recently released by the co-chairmen of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility would kill four million jobs over the next three years, according to a recently published analysis by the Economic Policy Institute (EPI). "Using the rule of thumb that a 1% increase in GDP increases payroll employment by 1 million jobs, we estimate that Co-Chairs Proposal would thus reduce payroll employment by roughly 723,000 jobs in 2012, 1.4 million jobs in 2013, and 1.9 million jobs in 2014," economists Josh Bivens and Andrew Fieldhouse said in their report, "Fiscal commissioners proposal would cost millions of jobs."

A German's View of Islam This is by far the best explanation of the Muslim terrorist situation I have ever read. His references to past history are accurate and clear. Not long, easy to understand, and well worth the read. The author of this email is said to be Dr. Emanuel Tanya, a well-known and well-respected psychiatrist. A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward fanaticism. 'Very few people were true Nazis,' he said, 'but many enjoyed the return of German pride, and many more were too busy to ...

Say what you want about WikiLeaks - and I don't much like what it has done - it nevertheless would be useful for its founder, Julian Assange, to follow George W. Bush as he lopes around the country, promoting his new book, "Decision Points." When, for instance, Bush attempts to justify the Iraq war by saying the world is a better place without Saddam Hussein, Assange could reach into his bag of leaked U.S. government cables and cite Saudi King Abdullah's private observation that the war had given Iraq to Iran as a "gift on a golden platter." Iraq now has a Shiite-dominated government and many senior officials who are ominously friendly with Iran. It was always ...
New Republican Congress Emboldens Netanyahu Post Date: 2010-11-29 14:41:12 by Brian S

The new Republican-led Congress will be more pro-Israel but it might not be manifest in foreign aid. The incoming majority leader of the House, for instance, will be Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia, a staunch pro-Israel lawmaker, and the incoming House speaker-designate is Rep. John A. Boehner of Ohio, who has outspokenly criticized the Obama Administration for pressuring Israel regarding construction in Judea and Samaria. On the other hand, as The New York Times has reported, newly-elected senator from Kentucky, Rand Paul, with isolationist, Tea Party tendencies, bluntly told AIPAC (the influential American Israeli Public Affairs Committee lobbying group) that they were "going ...
