NH State Representative Asks Where Congress’s Backbone Is| The Post & Email:
Why is it our elected Representatives in Congress do not have the backbone to bring Mr. Obama up on charges of treason! If they let this traitor off they are just as guilty as he is. They swore to uphold and defend the US Constitution, so what are they waiting for? It’s time for our elected officials to grow a backbone and stand up for America.
I hope you will join me in calling, writing or e-mailing you Congress person and ask them to do what is right for America, and ask for a Commission of Treason against Mr. Obama under Article III section 3 of the US Constitution. One person can make a difference. Wake up America!................

Obama Blames US Guns For Mexican Violence, Then Starts Running Guns to Mexico 5 Months Later
Obama Blames US Guns For Mexican Violence, Then Starts Running Guns to Mexico 5 Months Later:
FULL TITLE: Flashback: Obama Blames US Guns For Mexican Violence, Then Starts Running Guns to Mexico 5 Months Later
In April 2009 Barack Obama traveled to Mexico and blamed US gun sellers for “This war is being waged with guns purchased not here but in the United States...more than 90 percent of the guns recovered in Mexico come from the United States, many from gun shops that lay in our shared border. So we have responsibilities as well.”
Just to be sure, a few months later the Obama Administration started running their own guns to Mexico.
Also today..Mexican Attorney General told reporters that Obama is more involved with Operation Fast and Furious than he is admitting. The Cypress Times reported:

The Crisis
Because neither Clinton nor Obama directly addressed standing Military Code, the code remains intact, as it has existed much longer than 17 years. Homosexual service in the military is still a conduct punishable by Courts Martial, according to the manual and the UCMJ.
By trying to enforce executive political whims without altering code, they have placed both gay and heterosexual members of the military squarely in the line of fire of the UCMJ. Gays can be Courts Martialed for openly or quietly serving, and all other service members can and will be released from service with honors if they refuse to serve under the breech of Military Code and the contract they agreed to when they volunteered for service.
In typical leftist fashion, they have created another division, this time within the military.
Homosexuals represent less than 2% of service members, yet the other 98% have been forced into a position which is against standing Military Code and violates the agreement they signed when volunteering for service..................

Open Letter to Rep. Michele Bachmann| The Post & Email:
Michele, I would like to think you are a “Firebrand”, but the fact of the matter is…..you’re a BIG FAT ZERO!
You have REFUSED on numerous occasions to honor your Oath, and Tea Partiers are sick of the complicit tactics of EVERY member of the 111th and 112th Congresses.
Do you remember how the Donald rose like cream to the top? No one wanted to hear about his economic plans, or his experience, they wanted Barack’s ineligibility addressed. Americans are no longer fooled. Barack’s father was NEVER an American citizen, and even when a resolution was passed in Congress to certify John McCain eligible, the resolution stated CLEARLY that BOTH of his parents were U.S. citizens at the time of his birth. Michele,
I don’t care if Barack was delivered in the Oval Office by JFK, he is NOT and NEVER can be eligible because of his British citizenship at birth. Barack has freely admitted he was British at birth.
He cannot ever change his birth status, and therefore, can NEVER be eligible.
Americans want him indicted, tried, and punished.................

WHY DO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS NOT SEE THE OBVIOUS?
September 29, 2011
Rep. Marsha Blackburn has been serving as a U.S. Representative from Tennessee's Seventh District since 2003. Her district spans from Memphis to Nashville.
Dear Editor:
The following email was sent to Ms. Margaret Tipton, an aide to Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn, who serves the Seventh District of Tennessee.
Editor’s Note: Tennessee has been determined by some to be the most corrupt state in the nation based on reports of extortion, racketeering, police collusion with criminals, forgery, and judicial corruption. Even federal law enforcement in Tennessee can be described as nothing but corrupt, as they have consistently refused to act on multiple and ongoing reports of innocent people being sent to jails and prisons and judges who suborn perjury in the courtroom.
Grand juries established by the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution are rubber-stamp cabals which indict residents of the community without any evidence..........

His attorney, P. Scott Bratton, did, however, tell the Herald that Obama, who has been living illegally in the United States for nearly 20 years, has returned to work at Conti Liquors in Framingham.

BBC Turns Its Back on Year of Our Lord: 2,000 Years of Christianity Jettisoned for Politically Correct 'Common Era' by Chris Hastings:
The BBC has been accused of 'absurd political correctness' after dropping the terms BC and AD in case they offend non-Christians.
The Corporation has replaced the familiar Anno Domini (the year of Our Lord) and Before Christ with the obscure terms Common Era and Before Common Era.
Some of the BBC's most popular programmes including University Challenge, presented by Jeremy Paxman, and Radio 4's In Our Time, hosted by Melvyn Bragg, are among the growing number of shows using the new descriptions.
The BBC's religious and ethics department says the changes are necessary to avoid offending non-Christians.

The Day Science Died by Jeff Berwick and Derek Donohue:
So, it came as a very big surprise to me that of all the articles I have written, the article about the Electric Universe had the most direct feedback of any of them.
My email box was nearly full. There were a variety of emails including some who wanted to point out that Robin Hood was actually a libertarian/anarchist figure who "stole" the money back from the government of the time (the King) to give to the people. I admitted that that may very well have been the original point of Robin Hood, but Hollywood has unfortunately turned it into a socialist indoctrination system.
Other emails came directly from some of the founders of the Electric Universe concept, inviting me to a conference they will be having in Las Vegas in January – an invitation I accepted very humbly!
But the great majority of emails were from people who already knew about the Electric Universe or who found out about it through my post and who were excited about it.
One email I received in particular is quite insightful as to how the college and university bureaucracies of today have hindered the science itself..................

Eliminate the FDA, the Insurance Companies, and Medical Education Before They Kill You by James Altucher:
I’m a doctor. That’s not quite enough. Some might take that to mean I’m a “Doctor of Philosophy”. A PhD. In fact, I was rudely thrown out of graduate school.
I asked to at least use the office for the summer but they said, “No.” I needed to pack all my stuff and be out by afternoon. While packing my desk I found a woman’s earring underneath but that’s another story.
No, what I really mean is I’m a “MEDICAL” Doctor. In other words, you can come to me with your ailment, I can either diagnose them or tell you you need more serious help and recommend a specialist (for instance, if your finger has been accidentally amputated by a lawnmower , then I am NOT the guy to sew it back on. You need to go to a hospital where they have sewing machines for that sort of thing) and I can recommend treatment for you: take 5 of these pills, for instance, and call me in a week and avoid a diet that is high on carbs for at least this week.

Well, if it came out that Barack Obama was setting up a system that would identify “key bloggers” and monitor “billions of conversations” on the Internet to see what was being said about him, wouldn’t there be thousands of articles expressing outrage?

Ron Paul was on WMAL this morning and he just said there is no evidence Iran is developing a nuclear weapon. He also said that Iran needs to develop weapons because the countries around them have nuclear weapons.
Then he said if they did get nuclear weapons it would not matter since Stalin had nuclear weapons and we never used them. I guess he does not understand the concept of Nash equilibrium.............

Ron Paul Bests Obama in Latest Poll | EUTimes.net
Ron Paul Bests Obama in Latest Poll | EUTimes.net:
Shows Paul beating President in head-to-head matchup.
In a new Harris Poll, 2012 Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul beats President Obama 51 percent to 49 percent in a general election race.
“This is yet another poll that clearly proves how competitive Ron Paul is against the sitting President,” said Ron Paul 2012 National Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton. “Dr. Paul is making strides, affirming that the American people are looking for conviction instead of the typical status quo rhetoric being offered by establishment candidates.”
These results come just a few weeks after a Reuters/Ipsos survey showed Ron Paul polling within striking distance of President Obama among registered voters. Furthermore, a late August Rasmussen poll showed him within 1 percent of President Obama in a head-to-head matchup.
Another recent Gallup survey, conducted August 17-18, shows Paul only 2 percentage points behind Obama in a general election match-up.
In a similar head-to-head survey from last year done by Rasmussen, Dr. Paul drew a statistical dead heat with the President. And earlier this year in a survey by CNN, he did the best out of the other Republicans put up against Obama in a head-to-head poll.

In a similar head-to-head survey from last year done by Rasmussen, Dr. Paul drew a statistical dead heat with the President. And earlier this year in a survey by CNN, he did the best out of the other Republicans put up against Obama in a head-to-head poll.

Warning: The threat of suspended elections is real
Warning: The threat of suspended elections is real:
A dangerous new chapter is being written in American history that, if successful, is destined to impact the history of the West. It’s called ‘Re-Election by Suspended Election Revolution’

imageWith absolutely no proof of any kind of who he really is, Barack Obama made it to the Oval Office in 2008. There was no media vetting of the largely absentee senator from Illinois, who even back then had the temerity to compare himself to Abraham Lincoln. All anyone ever had to go on was an autographical book suspected of being ghost-written by an unrepentant domestic terrorist. We all know how it goes with politicians and autobiographical books.
When Nancy Pelosi writes hers she will claim she trumps Mother Teresa, the Calcutta saint, not the one married to John Kerry.
If Harry Reid ever gets around to it writing his, wine will turn to vinegar overnight.
You can claim to be anyone you want in a book, and that’s what Barry Soetoro did............

Former Governor Calls For Paul-Ventura Ticket
September 29, 2011 Gunny G
Former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura has sensationally called for Ron Paul to quit the Republican Party in order to form a Paul-Ventura libertarian ticket that can take on the establishment candidates in the race for the White House in 2012.
“Ron Paul can win, all you’ve got to do is activate and get the silent voters out to vote,” Ventura told the Alex Jones Show, adding that a Ron Paul-Ventura Libertarian ticket would create “incredible excitement”.
“Ron Paul needs to quit the Republican Party, get the nomination for the Libertarian Party,” said Ventura, adding that he would consider being in a Ron Paul cabinet if the Congressman won.
“I would be his best choice because.....

Court: Islam, Buddha, Homosexuality OK, but no God Allowed in Classroom
Court: Islam, Buddha, Homosexuality OK, but no God Allowed in Classroom:
The communist Left’s campaign to drive every hint of God from our nation’s classrooms continues. In case you missed the story from a couple of weeks ago, the latest twist in the case of the assault on one teacher’s freedom of speech has been a blow dealt by the notoriously leftist 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that ruled that school district authorities did not violate the teacher’s right to freedom of speech when they ordered him to remove patriotic banners from his classroom that included the name of God.
This ordeal began back in 2007 when Brad Johnson, a math teacher in San Diego’s Westview High School of the Poway Unified School District, was ordered by the schools principal to remove the banners.
WorldNetDaily reported that Johnson did not take the attack lying down and filed suit against the school district.

NEW: Kindle library lending starts in Seattle, goes national (I Just Started Using This Service!!!):
Seattle-area libraries on Tuesday began testing the long-awaited Kindle feature that lets patrons transfer borrowed library books to the electronic device.
This morning (Wednesday), Amazon.com announced that the program is now available across the country, at more than 11,000 libraries.
Amazon agreed in April to work with OverDrive, a Cleveland company that provides electronic book lending services for numerous libraries, but the companies didn't provide many details of what to expect. Amazon's website had promised the service was coming to 11,000 libraries.

Why not embrace America's oil and gas boom to revive the moribund economy?:
..... In a sluggish economy, energy-producing states like Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, North Dakota and Louisiana are benefiting from the job and income growth associated with the resurgent oil and gas sector. Each of these states currently posts unemployment rates below the U.S. average of 9.1 percent and each has posted job gains over the past year, led by energy.

Did the Founding Fathers Screw Up?
Did the Founding Fathers Screw Up?:
The country needs and, unless I mistake its temper, the country demands bold, persistent experimentation," Franklin Roosevelt declared as he campaigned for the presidency in the spring of 1932. "It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something."
Most of the experiments Roosevelt tried to rebuild the economy once he took office encountered fierce opposition. But his closing admonition -- try something -- transcends our political particularities. It's an affirmation of a specifically American common sense, a statement of our national inclination to action, an affirmation of the pragmatism that remains the country's signal contribution to philosophy. In times of trouble, try something. Who could be against that?
Yet, three years into the worst recession since Roosevelt's time, a countercurrent, every bit as American as our bias for action, has swept over us.
Twenty-five million Americans are either unemployed or underemployed, and the average duration of joblessness stands at record highs. Consumers are too deep in debt to consume; our producers produce and our investors invest abroad. To remedy all this, the federal government today tries ... nothing.

Obama going "all in"
Obama going "all in":
It appears that this administration and Republicans are going ahead with a request to have the Supreme Court rule on obamacare early in 2012.
You have to ask yourself, "why would this administration want to pursue a ruling on his signature piece of legislation," if...if they didn't have some sort of ace up their sleeve.
This administration is perceived as weak and losing steam -- Why, why would they push for this. We know why the Republicans are pushing for this, we have the votes and the legislation is un-Constitutional it will get defeated. We know this!
But why is this administration going along with this -- What are they up to.
Sun Tzu wrote; "All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.
Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him." ~ the Art of War.....

The GOP race and the power of irrational thinking
The GOP race and the power of irrational thinking:
The fact that Rick Perry has been enduring a bad-to-terrible few weeks means that Mitt Romney has been enjoying a good-to-great few weeks.
When Perry burst into the race last month and immediately surged to the head of the GOP pack, there was a strong sense in the political world that Mitt's jig might finally be up. But now conventional wisdom is rapidly swinging back Romney's way. A new poll from Iowa even shows Romney back in first place -- and Perry running in third, a point behind Michele Bachmann.
Romney's durability is prompting some understandable confusion. For more than a year now, we've heard that his Massachusetts healthcare law -- which included an individual mandate and which served as the blueprint for "ObamaCare," and for which Romney refuses to apologize -- makes him absolute poison to the Obama-era GOP.
And yet he's surviving -- and it really shouldn't be all that surprising. Romney's endurance serves as a fine illustration of how fundamentally illogical public opinion really is, and to the backward-working way that most people actually form their opinions.

Obama and the Meaning of Life
Obama and the Meaning of Life:
As I grew up, I found some soft spirituality, in the form of Buddhism and Sufism. I loved to read the Sufi poems -- I still do; I feel comforted by the poets' adoration of God.
Buddhism also gave me a road to dealing with suffering, as well as some vague notions about what life was all about (as in, being awakened to the "truth," whatever that means).
But it's been only in the last couple of years of my life that I finally have a clearer idea of why we are here, and what this wondrous and brutal existence is all about. It took my whole world being tossed around like a pair of dice three years ago, and then thrown out there in a completely new configuration. Somehow, for reasons I'll never know, everything looks different.
And now I finally have some answers, because they are all contained in a book I'd never even seen before, called the Bible. Just like Dorothy in the Land of Oz and her ruby* slippers, the hidden jewel was there all along. I was just kept away from seeing it by a culture that detests and fears anything having to do with God.
I asked a friend the other day how often he ponders the meaning of life. He is a brainy Ph.D. who immerses himself each week in heady tomes. To my surprise, he answered, "Never."

Tim, Liz and Bev Equals Moe Larry and Curly:
Remember the Three Stooges? Moe, Larry and Curly entertained a generation of kids with antics that were a combination slapstick comedy mixed with unrelenting stupidity. Most comedy today is much more “sophisticated.” So where do we find today’s Three Stooges? Inhabiting the government, or trying to.

But when you talk about the Republican establishment -- and you've read their pieces today -- you know what I'm talking about: The columnists, the magazine directors, editors, publishers, whatever, they are reaching and searching for a counter to the conservatives.
They don't want Herman Cain getting the nomination; they don't want Perry getting the nomination; they don't want Bachmann getting the nomination. The Republican establishment does not want a conservative getting the nomination...

A Bizarre New Reason for Football Postponement: Fire Ants!
A Bizarre New Reason for Football Postponement: Fire Ants!:
When Friday's football game between Hunter-Kinard-Tyler (S.C.) High and Calhoun County (S.C.) High (members of which are pictured below) was delayed for two days, few people (if any) would have predicted what caused the postponement.
Weather? Not this time. A power outage? Nope, the electricity was flowing just fine.
Instead, the matchup between two small South Carolina schools was delayed because of a massive infestation of fire ants on Hunter-Kinard-Tyler's home field . After inspecting the field before the game's opening kickoff, football referee Steve Hook discovered nearly 20 active fire ant mounds on the surface of play.
