Guess who Obama thinks should have 9/11 immunity

The Obama administration has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court [go here] to protect Saudi Arabia and four of its princes from being held accountable for their alleged role in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the United States that killed almost 3,000 Americans. One has to ask oneself: 1) WHY? and
2) Why am I NOT surprised? At first I was reluctant to open this old wound but then I realized that it has never closed and never will, and that is probably a good thing. Like Eisenhower's directive to take pictures of Germany's death camps upon their liberation lest the world disbelieve or forget what happened there [Ahmedinejad excepted], so must we see pictures and follow all news pertaining to 911, lest we become complacent or minimize its enormity.

As deep concerns about the individual in the White House continues to spread, it is things like this that add fuel to the fire and wind to fan it. Among other things, a letter to the White House resident from Lou Pritchett, speaker and corporate consultant, formerly with Proctor & Gamble gives credence to the fact that the concerns are myriad, serious, and shared by many.

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA
Dear President Obama:
You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.
You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you..
You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.
You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.
You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.
You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core.
You scare me because you lack humility and 'class,' always blaming others.
You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.
You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America' crowd and deliver this message abroad.
You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.
You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a governmentcontrolled one.
You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.
You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.
You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations.
You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.
You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.
You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.
You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.
You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Relllys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view..
You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.
Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Add to this a cooling attitude toward long time ally Israel and his plan for a speech to the Muslim world on Israeli Independence Day and it simply does not look good. Not for America, not for the World, not for anyone. Except, perhaps, Himself. First, Last and Always. It would not surprise me if the Handlers that installed him were having second, third and even fourth thoughts right about now, as Americans are being poured into some of Afghanistan's cruelest and most inhospitable terrain [both Nature and the Taliban seem to have teamed up here], and Camp Leatherneck, with the largest combat zone parking lot for air vehicles in the world is being built in Helmand Province. Even Tom Rall, Miami's loyal Liberal, has called for the resignation of this guy...it's got to give one pause for thought...doesn't it?

Thanks to TIME and James Nachtwey for heartrending pictures of Ground Zero, and to Joseph Farah and World Net Daily for reporting on the Obama administration's petition filed in U.S. Supreme Court to protect Saudi Arabia and four of its princes from being held accountable for their alleged role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the United States that killed almost 3,000 Americans. And to our troops, especially the 2/8 in Afghanistan.

Fly By's, Flu Bugs...What To Do?!

Fly By's, Flu Bugs and What To Do?! Whoooaaaaa! NOT good. Well, other than stepping up those visits to the Reflexologist, look at the bright side: now we know why they're floating that flu thing all over the wires... Massachusetts legislators yesterday unanimously rammed a martial law bill into law with a 36-0 vote, allowing a public health commissioner to close or evacuate buildings, enter private property for investigations, and quarantine individuals — in a public health emergency, of course. The bill specifically mandates the following:

(1) to require the owner or occupier of premises to permit entry into and investigation of the premises;
(2) to close, direct, and compel the evacuation of, or to decontaminate or cause to be decontaminated any building or facility, and to allow the reopening of the building or facility when the danger has ended;
(3) to decontaminate or cause to be decontaminated, or to destroy any material;
(4) to restrict or prohibit assemblages of persons;
(5) to require a health care facility to provide services or the use of its facility, or to transfer the management and supervision of the health care facility to the department or to a local public health authority;
(6) to control ingress to and egress from any stricken or threatened public area, and the movement of persons and materials within the area;
(7) to adopt and enforce measures to provide for the safe disposal of infectious waste and human remains, provided that religious, cultural, family, and individual beliefs of the deceased person shall be followed to the extent possible when disposing of human remains, whenever that may be done without endangering the public health;
(8) to procure, take immediate possession from any source, store, or distribute any anti-toxins, serums, vaccines, immunizing agents, antibiotics, and other pharmaceutical agents or medical supplies located within the commonwealth as may be necessary to respond to the emergency;
(9) to require in-state health care providers to assist in the performance of vaccination, treatment, examination, or testing of any individual as a condition of licensure, authorization, or the ability to continue to function as a health care provider in the commonwealth

Any person who knowingly violates an order of the commissioner or his or her designee, or of a local public health authority or its designee, given to effectuate the purposes of this subsection shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 6 months, or by a fine of note more than one thousand dollars, or both.

Well, by hook or by crook, the government continues to wedge itself into positions of increasing authority, making further inroads into our Constitution. [ Earlier this year, the State of New Jersey passed into law a bill mandating vaccinations for all children, desite the fact that it runs contrary to the tenets of our Constitution, which, along with our Declaration of Independence, states otherwise]. In fact, to be perfectly clear here: The Constitution does NOT CONFER rights upon us. Rather, it affirms the Declaration of Independence's assertion that

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

Again: there ARE 'certain inalienable rights' which we hold automatically, as human beings, and which cannot be taken, by the government or anyone else, because they cannot be 'given.' We ALREADY HAVE them. Or did, until this bunch of clowns forced their way into our government.

However, the brouhaha about the latest round of flu appears to be at best a conundrum and at worst, a smokescreen for something far worse. It seems that another one of the patterns [so many patterns, so little time!] that has emerged in the last 100 Days is the Smoke and Mirrors ploy, in which a maddening, albeit lesser event such as AIG executives' bonuses [or a flu outbreak] consistently floods the airwaves, only to cover up something else, far more nefarious, that is actually transpiring behind the scenes, for the most part safely unreported. Take, for example, the Bailouts, which 99% of the American people opposed, or the Goldman Sachs/AIG ruse. Media had the public all worked up over AIG bonus packages, which, while significant by most middle class standards, was a mere drop in the bucket compared to the bazillions being shoveled out their back door into their own executives' pockets and foreign owned subsidiaries. [For more on that, go here or to our Constitutional Radio archives for Mike Morgan's Aprl 21 spot with us].

Yesterday I had occasion to be in a room with about 10 people, all of us held captive by CNN bleating constant flu coverage from a shelf too high up on the wall to mute. Not ONE of us was paying even the slightest bit of attention. After about 45 minutes, someone said, "I don't believe anything I hear on the news." Another said, "I never watch it." All concurred. Then in walked three people who appeared to be Mexicans. [no, I am not a racist; there is a large Mexican community here]. No one moved away from them, held their breath or pulled out their hand sanitizer. Interestingly, however, a source recently told me that Baxter [you remember Baxter--they reported that clusterfrack in March where they "accidentally" contaminated "samples" with live bird flu virus] has been stockpiling huge amounts of flu vaccine, amassing store rooms full of it. The source said claims he has never seen anything like in Baxter before. Now, admittedly, this is purely anecdotal and, as this piece is not really about Baxter or the flu, I am leaving it at that: a FWIW that may or may not fit into the puzzle. Then again...walking and talking like a duck may very well indicate the presence of one. However, as with most things, one must sift events not individually, but through the aggregate to get a feel for reality. In other flu news, for instance,

As the World Health Organization raised infectious disease alert level Wednesday and health officials confirmed the first death linked to swine flu inside U.S. borders, scientists studying the virus are coming to the consensus that this hybrid strain of influenza -- at least in its current form -- isn't shaping up to be as fatal as the strains that caused some previous pandemics. In fact, the current outbreak of the H1N1 virus, which emerged in San Diego and southern Mexico late last month, may not even do as much damage as the run-of-the-mill flu outbreaks that occur each winter without much fanfare. http://www.latimes.com/features/health/la-sci-swine-reality30-2009apr30,0,3606923.story

So...just what is one to believe? It was clear from the huge turnouts at April Tea Parties this month that the American people are indeed "Mad As Hell and NOT Going To Take It Anymore." As much as main stream media tried to ignore them, it became impossible to do it, and so, Plan B was rolled out with personal attacks on the attendees designed to neutralize and dismiss them as "veterans" [heaven forbid!], right wing crackpots and domestic terrorists [projection?], which culminated in MSNBC and CNN being reported to the FCC for using foul and inappropriate language regarding tea, rude, pushy and obviously biasedCNN reporter Susan Roesgen suddenly disappearing for a "vacation" and the American people triumphing in their effort to take to the streets to make their voices heard. So much for Plan B. Is it possible that Plan C includes a ruse to scare them off the streets over the long, hot summer ahead with threat of the flu? Certainly. Any administration that would even CONSIDER terrorizing its own citizens with a flyover above lower Manhattan in post-911 times is not only ghoulish, but capable, obviously, of trying anything to achieve their goal, which at present appears to be that of scaring, demoralizing and immobilizing Americans in order to keep them quiet, malleable and easy to subdue. As the domestic terrorist in the White House continues to shock, awe and amaze with the worst combination of cavalier bad taste, poor judgment and bait and switch tactics the world has ever seen, we stand at the ready to decipher the WRH's, the WORMS, and the battle of words, all the better to defend ourselves and our country against the onslaught from within and without.

Happy Trails, all. Oh, and wash your hands, willya? Oh Yeah, and 911? Get over it. It was just a photo op, and NO we don't have Photoshop.
