Obama’s Facebook Townhall crashes; conservative group claims credit

For about 39 minutes Wednesday afternoon, the Obama Facebook Townhall event page was down.

According to representatives of the conservative group ForAmerica (which is chaired by conservative Brent Bozell) they are likely responsible. Just prior to the crash, ForAmerica sent out word to their nearly 1 million fans on Facebook that they should post comments on the site. The Townhall event began at 4:45 EST Wednesday, but opened for questions and comments earlier. The theme of the event was “Shared Responsibility and Shared Prosperity.”

Everyone but the blind and reckless agrees that the United States faces a dire financial crisis. But only one of the two major political parties is offering a plan that has a reasonable chance of averting this crisis and restoring the nation to financial health.

Probably the most controversial aspect of modern search and seizure law is the concept of “aggressive patrolling,” a means of using stop and frisk authority to make the police presence felt in certain neighborhoods, remove weapons and drugs from the streets, and turn targets into informants. Because arrests are rarely made in this context, the exclusionary rule is almost useless as a deterrent. An analogous strategy occurs in connection with traffic stops.

WASHINGTON — Easter morning sunrise services are part of a long tradition in Christianity. For millenniums, believers around the globe have gathered in the open at dawn on Easter Sunday to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ and profess their faith. This year, there will be far fewer such assemblies in the Middle East and southwest Asia. For this we can thank what President Barack Obama calls the "Arab spring."

Have Republicans figured out Obama’s birth certificate is a political loser?

By Matthew Continetti 

Continetti is guest-blogging for The Post.
I went on NPR’s “On Point” program this morning to talk about — what else — Donald Trump’s potential presidential candidacy. Before the interview I read Trump’s USA Today op-ed, “Obama, come clean.” The headline implies that Trump is continuing his quest to uncover President Obama’s actual birthplace and maybe recover the lost ark of the covenant while he’s at it. But what struck me was that Trump seems desperate to move beyond the “birther” issue:

"He also told me something that I never forgot, for it caused me to do some other things in an effort to be nice to him and possibly a favor. We spoke of where I had been and the world as I saw it. I told him I had been to Africa , Mombassa specifically, and he said to me abruptly, “I was born there.”

In the light of what is called “The Birther” movement, these memories are still foremost in my mind concerning this. While I cannot swear it was Barak Obama, all the details I do remember of that chance encounter fit the profile of the man who some people claim is born in Kenya and others claim he was born in Hawaii .

Last weekend, Tea Parties throughout the country held Tax Day rallies to protest bloated government budgets, ever increasing debt, and the ballooning entitlement state. Some among the Left were not content to let the Tea Party own Tax Day.

In Arkansas, an anti-Tea Party rally dubbed "Make Them Pay" took place on the steps of the state capitol. Jim Lendall, a former state representative and 2010 Green Party Gubernatorial nominee, was applauded when he took the podium to call for the beheading of businessmen and conservatives.
The French, inspired by our American Revolution, knew how to deal with the wealthy arrogant aristocrats. The French people built guillotines. Maybe we can park a guillotine in front of every chamber of commerce, corporate headquarters, bank, investment house, and Republican Party headquarters to remind them that democracy is about people, not profits. We need to tell them in one clear voice, ‘No more greed.’

It seems that around the turn of the century – the old one – 1900 or 1901, Sun Yat-sen returned to Hawaii. It was at this time in his life that Sun was involved in politics and trying to free China from it’s dictatorial monarchy.

In 1904, Sun obtained a “Certificate of Hawaiian Birth,” issued by the Territory of Hawaii, stating he was born on November 24, 1870 in Kula, Maui. (See the Wikipedia entry at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun_Yat_Sen#cite_note-17)

The discrepancy of birthdates didn’t startle me, but the significance of the document’s meaning did.

Can President Obama be defeated in 2012? No. He can't.
I am going on record as saying that President Barak Obama will win a second term.

The media won't tell you this because a good election campaign means hundreds of millions (or in Obama's case billions) of dollars to them in advertising. But the truth is, there simply are no conditions under which Barak Obama can be defeated in 2012.

The quality of the Republican candidate doesn't matter. Obama gets reelected.

Nine percent unemployment? No problem. Obama will win.
Gas prices moving toward five dollars a gallon? He still wins.
The economy soars or goes into the gutter. Obama wins.
War in the Middle East? He wins a second term.

On tonight’s The Last Word, host Lawrence O’Donnell had some strong words for Donald Trump… kind of like all the other times he’s had strong words for Trump.

Calling Trump “America’s Vulgarian-in-Chief,” O’Donnell led viewers through Trump’s recent Today interview with Savannah Guthrie, his awkward chat with George Stephanopoulos, and his interview Michael Isikoff – discussing his stance on abortion, his doubts about Barack Obama’s country of birth, and his business practices (not to mention the establishment of his genuinely perplexing “Trump University”), respectively. O’Donnell continued by calling Trump a “very silly man” who can barely string a sentence together, calling special attention to an instance of Trump using poor grammar

Obama, Let My People Go - Daniel Greenfield

Obama, Let My People Go

 - Daniel Greenfield  Thursday, April 21, 2011 
 
3,000 years after the Jewish people left Egyptian slavery bound for the land of Israel, their freedom remains as elusive as ever. A new Pharaoh adjacent not to the Nile, but the Potomac, looks out from the White House and issues his decrees regarding the Jews.
No sooner does a Jew build a house in Jerusalem, than one of the Pharaoh’s flunkies rushes to condemn him for it. A week before Passover, one of those flunkies announced that the administration was both “deeply concerned” and “very worried” about new Jewish homes in Jerusalem. A day later Jewish families hoping to be able to live in their own holy city were greeted with the announcement that approval for more housing had been suspended to avoid offending the little man with the big ears in the White House.

The Obama Administration has spent more time condemning housing in Jerusalem, than genocide in the Sudan

The Obama Administration has spent more time condemning housing in Jerusalem, than genocide in the Sudan. If some parts of Israel are constantly being shelled by terrorists, the Gilo neighborhood of Jerusalem is constantly being shelled by administration spokesmen. Year after year, the people of an overcrowded city are frustrated in their efforts to find a place to live, when some White House or State Department flunky finishes sipping his coffee, gets up in front of a microphone and expresses the grave concern of his master that a new condominium might go up in a place where Jews had been living long before the religion of Obama’s grandmother was even a twinkle in her mad prophet’s eye.

Fear and Loathing” is a phrase made famous by the late Hunter S. Thompson, gonzo journalist extrordinaire.  I recall an old “Rolling Stone” magazine article in which he endorsed Jimmy Carter for President—with fear and loathing.

My support for Donald Trump has no fear in it, and certainly no loathing, but it does have its share of care and caution. In essence, my support of Trump is support for openly discussing Obama’s eligibility to be POTUS. Trump is just the current standard-bearer for the cause.

Cheer Up! It Could Be Worse!

by Bob Bauman
The Sovereign Society
That headline is an old saying, to which the traditional reply is: "Sure enough. I cheered up and it did get worse."
But these days, I am not sure how much worse it can get.
In the last 14 years here at the Sovereign Society I have had the sad duty to chronicle and warn about the Leviathan state’s ferocious war against free market economics, and especially against your freedom to bank, invest and do business offshore.

This unrelenting war has been led by the leftist Democratic Party in the U.S., including President Barack Obama, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the European Union, the Organization for Community and Economic Development (OECD) and its Financial Action Task Force (FATF), as well as the United Nations.
Each of these big spending, high taxers, for their own, and for common tax hungry reasons, has joined in a coordinated attempt to crush offshore financial havens which they see as nothing more than centers for massive tax evasion.

“My view is, we ought to double Guantanamo,” he said, radiating the sense that if primary voters wanted something, anything, he’d be willing to sell it. His strategists obsessed about creating and selling “Brand Romney.”

What would you think if, before any government contracts could be awarded to private businesses, all bidders were required to reveal any and all political contributions made by the company, its executives and board of directors? One could infer that such a rule might create the potential for the government to decide on who wins the contract based on the company’s political leanings or that of its officers, instead of getting the best company to do the job for the best price.

As Barack Obama's recently released tax return reveals, the president made $1,512,933 in book royalties in 2010, and that was a relatively slow year.

A children's book Obama produced, "Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to My Daughters," appears to account for $131,075 of this amount with the rest divided between his 1995 memoir "Dreams From My Father," and his 2006 policy book, "The Audacity of Hope."
As I argue in my book "Deconstructing Obama," Weather Underground veteran Bill Ayers had little, if anything, to do with "Audacity" – indeed, he recently dismissed it as a "political hack book" – but he had everything to do with "Dreams."

This, the first of a series of articles on the Obama home at 5046 S. Greenwood, establishes that three individuals other than Obama are listed in public records as owners and taxpayers on the property. Barack Obama is not among at least three people listed as current owners and taxpayers of the mansion his family calls home in Chicago's upscale Kenwood neighborhood, according to public records.
WND reported in December 2008 that William Miceli, the attorney for convicted political operative Tony Rezko and a fundraiser for Obama, owns the Obama home at 5046 S. Greenwood.

I understand under "normal" circumstances, next would be the Vice-President, then the Speaker of the House, then the Secretary of State. BUT...... How could Biden be eligible if the whole thing was illegitimate? How could they drop to Boehner if the democratic party was elected?

Just who has the final say in a situation like this? Overheard this conversation last night and what a heated discussion - I thought FREEPERS know, I'll ask.

I don’t think the world has ever seen anything quite like the times in which we now live. There seems to be so much swirling around us. Sometimes I feel like my head is spinning.

Is it just me, or do you find it hard to know who and what to believe?
I write this with much caution because I am rapidly become more aware of the impact my writings have. I know that may sound arrogant, and that is certainly not my point, but the truth is, thanks to NewsWithViews.com, and the power of the internet, there are many around the world who are reading what I write....
***...
The Spiritual war is real and is playing out before us. Because most Americans are so shallow in their thinking they do not understand that there is a spiritual reason, connection really, to everything that is going on in this world. The battle between good and evil, light and dark, truth and lies, right and wrong, is playing out in the battle for the culture. 

Most of us think it is political; democrat bad/republican good, liberal bad/conservative good, Fox News good/MSNBC bad…but that merely identifies the teams and some of the star players.

The battle before us is the battle of the ages; The seed of the serpent against the seed of the woman…make no mistake about it. It is a REAL war with real eternal consequences. Hell is real, angels, demons, Satan…Jesus…they are all real…but invisible. Often it is hard to believe what you CAN see, let alone what you can’t.
But trust me; there is a dimension around us where this “wrestling” is taking place. “High places” is the term the Scriptures give us, where the “principalities and powers” battle for control of this earth-world.

Trump blasts Seinfeld pullout

Trump blasts Seinfeld pullout

Donald Trump wasn't laughing when funnyman Jerry Seinfeld canceled an upcoming appearance at a benefit for his son's Eric Trump Foundation.
Seinfeld pulled out of the Sept. 13 event benefiting the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital because he disagrees with The Donald's questioning of Barack Obama's citizenship, his reps said. 

"I just learned you canceled a show for my son's charity," Trump fired off in a scorching letter to Seinfeld yesterday, "because of the fact that I am being very aggressive with respect to President Obama, who is doing an absolutely terrible job as our leader."
"Celebrity Apprentice" star Trump piled on the insults, saying he wished he'd canceled his appearance on Seinfeld's "failed" NBC show, "The Marriage Ref."

"We don't care that you broke your commitment," he wrote, "even though the children of St. Jude are very disappointed, and despite the fact that your manager clearly stated you are 'truly a man of his word.'
