"Funny, but the whole issue of money up until this point has revolved around the fact that Strauss-Kahn -- ironically, a Socialist -- was staying in a $3,000-a-night suite at the Sofitel. The IMF's p.r. machine went into action by countering that he'd gotten a deal -- the suite was only $525 a night, and Strauss-Kahn paid for it himself. That's swell."

Eight Pols Own Stock in Airport Body Scanner Co.
[From article]
"A New World Order cannot coexist with our national sovereignty and a constitution protective of its citizens. Therefore, the power elite must deconstruct our rights and safeguards from within, and are readily doing so under the pretext of our own security. Once the majority of the sleeping population is properly conditioned, the violations of our rights will become incrementally more egregious until the perversions detailed by George Orwell’s 1984 are nothing more than a distant vision in our collective rear view mirrors.
[. . .]
The subtle deception by omission or deliberate evasion is likely to be the proverbial final nail in the coffin of our great republic.
[. . .]
Perhaps the most apparent of all totalitarian undertakings are those of the Transportation and Security Administration presently under the leadership of John Pistole, a branch of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security under the reign of Janet Napolitano.
We need to look no further than the TSA for illustrations of just how out of control the abuse of power is today. Unsurprisingly, the liberal watchdogs that have historically fought against such abuses are silent, while the conservative right permits the advances of such powers without objection as well.
[. . .]
We should be able to rely on those we’ve elected to protect our rights, yet the same people who have taken an oath to uphold the constitution are permitting and in many cases, facilitating its demise.
[. . .]
The Chertoff Group worked with RapiScan, which is one of only two companies that manufacture these devices who are TSA vendors. The other company, L-3 Communications, has as its lobbyist, Linda Daschle, who is the wife of former Democratic Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle. It should be looked upon as no coincidence that at least eight members of congress own stock in L-3 Communications. Included among those eight is Senator John Kerry, who owns upwards of a million dollars in L-3 stock.
[. . .]
In our opinion, the TSA has been openly running a criminal organization since its existence. The fourth amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects American citizens from unreasonable searches. Unfortunately, this law is apparently not followed anymore, and our rights under the fourth amendment are not being protected. The TSA’s response is quite simplistic. According to TSA Head, John Pistole, if passengers refuse screening by scanners or pat downs, they do not have the right to fly.

Hawking Declares There is No Heaven
And he knows this based upon what evidence? His conclusions are based on scientific evidence, which is always incomplete. Whatever theories of the universe scientists have made throughout history have always been dependent on facts known at the time. Hawking like other arrogant scientists makes claims that cannot be proved. This is more speculation.

Genetic Depression Requires Psychiatric Drugs?
If depression is a genetic problem why are drugs still the preferred treatment? With defective hearts researchers inject heart genes as therapy. Is this one more PR project promoting psychiatric drugs?

Fake Human Rights Commission
This was likely a Press Release with a picture of about 20 teenagers in the Cambridge City Council Chambers. Each year Cambridge and other cities in MA run art contests in high schools. This is what a full time Human Rights Commissioner declares is Human Rights. For several years in Cambridge until he left City government Quoc Tran used to give an award each year to the landlord who did not raise rents as high as he was legally allowed to do. That is what Cambridge one-party liberal democracy calls Human Rights. Never has any local Human Rights commission investigate why the Boston office of the US Fair Housing Act office of HUD employed five or more intake employees none of whom knew the legal definition of disability. Nor did any local or state Human Rights commissioners investigate why the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development was unconcerned with that fact. More smoke and mirrors from liberal Democrats.

How Gwyneth Paltrow Stays Fit
[From article]
"Gwyneth Paltrow serves up some cold, hard reality as she tells Self how she maintains that willowy silhouette: "I know if I put in an hour and a half (of exercise), five days a week, I'm good," she says. "If I'm prepping for something or if I've been eating a lot of pie, I do two hours a day, six days a week for two weeks." If that news isn't defeating enough for all you would-be Gwyneths, consider her typical prep for a walk on the red carpet: "Before last year's Iron Man 2 premiere, I did green juices and salads for three days."

Normalizing Homicide
[From article]
"No sooner does a Yemeni Muslim begin hammering on the cockpit door shouting “Allahu Akbar”, then the media speculates that he must have gotten confused looking for the bathroom. And on September 11, four groups of Muslim men with boxcutters got confused looking for the nearest post office.
[. . .]
Allah’s superiority renders all others inferior. That’s the message of Allahu Akbar. And it’s shouted much more often as a battle cry, than by people looking for the bathroom in the cockpit part of the plane.
[. . .]
Every news story takes great care to explain that AA, (Allahu Akbar not Alcoholics Anonymous), is a common Arabic phrase shouted at various occasions. Which is true. Muslims don’t just shout Allahu Akbar when they’re killing people. The problem is that they do shout Allahu Akbar when they are killing people. And that shout reveals motive.
No one shouts Allahu Akbar when trying to get into a bathroom, but they do shout it when they think have a shot of getting into a cockpit.
[. . .]
The normalizers insist that Islam is no different than Judaism or Christianity, but what they can’t explain is the global body count, except by twisting the signposts around until it’s all the Hindus, Jews, Christians, Animists and Zoroastrians who are to blame for being murdered.

San Francisco Protects Illegal Alien Felons
[From article]
"President Obama and his lame side-kick, otherwise know as Attorney General Eric Holder recently prosecuted the State of Arizona because Arizona had passed a law, with wording mimicking the federal statutes, to enforce immigration laws. Holder claimed the state was precluded from passing these type of laws as the state was “pre-empted” by the feds. However, Obama and Holder see no “pre-emption” policy violation when states and cities pass laws designed to defeat or circumvent federal laws. That’s apparently lawful according to the brain trusts that run the Attorney General’s office. Do you need more evidence that we live in an Alice in Wonderland world, a world full of left wing rodents running the government?"

Misguided Police Priorities
[In second later article below the first the suspect is reported to have been treated for schizophrenia. How likely is it that the drugs he was forced to take was the cause of this horrible crime?]
Here's one more example of a known violent man who was not under surveillance by any law enforcement agency. Even though he was allegedly a former mental patient which is all police and civilians need to fear people. For 35 years American police and taxpayer funded employees conduct 24/7 criminal surveillance, criminal harassment and character assassination targeting a law abiding citizen. They often use foreign states' or crime family employees to do the dirty work. Can you say political abuses of power and malfeasance?

Media Distorts Muslim Violence Toward Christians
[From article]
"The goal is to make sharia the only law of Egypt, just as it is the only law of Saudi Arabia and Iran. It is the goal of the Brotherhood in all of the scores of countries in which it operates: gradually implement sharia, enclave by enclave, country by country, until a global caliphate is established.
The Brothers have been playing this game for decades: stoking violence but distancing themselves when the violence breaks out; condemning “terrorism” but glorifying “resistance”; feigning a commitment to regular politics but forming Hamas; decrying Osama bin Laden’s attacks on civilians but — when speaking to Arabic audiences — praising bin Laden as a heroic mujahid, a warrior in Allah’s jihad against the oppressors."

Bin Laden’s One Mistake
Bin Laden’s One Mistake
by Shmuel Sackett
International Director, Manhigut Yehudit
One thing made Osama bin Laden public enemy #1.
One thing made him a target for America’s hit squad.
One thing – and only one thing – made his assassination justified and praised by world leaders.
He didn’t just kill Jews.
Had he limited his terrorism to Jews only, he would not have been targeted.
The same world leaders, who today take great pride in his death, would have celebrated his life.
He would not have been killed by President Obama, he would have dined with him.
He would have been invited to the United Nations.
He would have been a featured speaker on the world speaking tour.
He would have won the Noble peace prize.
Think I’m crazy?
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the President of Iran. His resume includes a lot more than just politics. It has been proven that he personally ordered the attacks against the Jewish community of Argentina where hundreds of Jews were killed. He has stated – time and again – that he wants to destroy Israel. He wants to kill the 6,000,000 Jews (interesting number) who live there and he is feverishly working to build a bomb that will do just that.
Has he been targeted?
Is this animal on any one’s “hit list”?
Actually, just the opposite is true.
He recently spoke in the UN.
He was a guest speaker in Columbia University.
Why? Because he is only interested in killing Jews.
Khaled Mashaal is the leader of Hamas.
Hamas is the sworn enemy of Israel.
It has killed over 1,500 Jews in the last 10 years.
It has fired over 5,000 missiles into Israel, aiming for Jewish homes and hoping to kill Jewish children.
Has he been targeted?
Is this beast on any one’s “hit list”?
Actually, just the opposite is true.
Russian President Vladimir Putin recently invited Mashaal to Moscow.
Former USA President Jimmy Carter has embraced Mashaal and considers him a partner for peace.
Why? Because he is only interested in killing Jews.
Yassir Arafat was the founder and leader of the PLO.
He has more innocent blood on his hands than Osama bin Laden.
Yet, this murderer was invited numerous times to dine with President Bill and First Lady Hillary Clinton in the White House.
He spoke in the UN.
He was accepted around the world as a leader and spoke in over 30 countries.
He won the Noble Peace Prize.
Why? Because he was only interested in killing Jews.
Although I can go on, I will give just one final example: Adolph Hitler.
The world knew about concentration camps as early as 1933.
The world knew about Kristellnacht back in November of 1938.
Yet, the entire world called this monster; Herr Hitler.
They gave his respect.
They recognized him as a leader.
All that changed when Hitler invaded Poland on September 1, 1939.
From that point on he became an enemy.
Why? Because until that day he was interested in killing Jews only…
Osama bin Laden violated the golden rule: In addition to killing just Jews, he also killed non-Jews. That is why he was targeted and for no other reason!
The message to Jews – and the State of Israel - is very clear.
Learn to defend yourself .
Learn to take revenge yourself .
The world will not help you with Iran or Hamas.
Ahmadinejad and Mashaal will not make the same mistake as Bin Laden and will continue to be accepted and embraced by the world.
Understand this, accept this and deal with this.
“We have no one on which to rely, other than our Father in Heaven”.
May today’s Jewish leaders – and the brave warriors of the IDF – engrave this on their hearts.
And may they – very soon - do to these terrorists exactly what was done to Bin Laden.

Google Uses Private Information For Profit
Aside from the privacy issues about which there is a new book How Google Thinks, Works, and Shapes Our Lives By Steven Levy; this report verifies the notion that news is largely managed. If the PR firm (only one of many) can get an essay "placed" in major media outlets what does that say about what gets published?

Obama, Holder, Arbitrary Capricious
[From article]
"As for Attorney General Eric Holder, he's insisting the bin Laden hit was "justified as an action of national self-defense" against "a lawful military target." Khalid Sheik Muhammed, the 9/11 mastermind being held at Gitmo, should be tried in a civilian courtroom, the AG believes -- but his partner-in-terror, bin Laden, was a legitimate "military target." Any doubt these guys make this stuff up as they go along?"

Spitzer Most Corrupt Governor
[From articke]
"Spitzer -- who unleashed the State Police against a Republican foe, signed an ethics "reform" bill that made Albany's corruption worse, engaged in illegal banking transactions and patronized at least one prostitute -- was, in fact, the most crooked New York governor in modern times, the record clearly shows."

NYC Public Advocate expressed his "deep concern regarding alleged" NYPD ticket fixing probe. Why is there loud silence from the City Council, the Mayor, the City Comptroller, the Governor, state and US legislators? Is the Public Advocate the only elected official who does not accept corruption? Can't clean up legislatures without honest law enforcement. Was it the Mollen Commission that noted police need constant scrutiny?

Communist Priorities
Oleg Kalugin was KGB Chief in Washington DC. He revealed this on a FOX News interview. The priority was to divide Americans. They preyed on unhappy and dissatisfied American citizens. See how successful they are? Blacks against Whites; homosexuals against breeders, women against men, and even citizens against illegal aliens. Here is a list of the goals stated in 1963. Few Americans believe that Communists are actively making policy in this country. Because they call themselves Progressives, or Socialists they create the impression that Communists are no longer present in this country.

The Communist Takeover Of America -
45 Declared Goals
From Greg Swank
12-4-2
You are about to read a list of 45 goals that found their way down the halls of our great Capitol back in 1963. As you read this, 39 years later, you should be shocked by the events that have played themselves out. I first ran across this list 3 years ago but was unable to attain a copy and it has bothered me ever since. Recently, Jeff Rense posted it on his site and I would like to thank him for doing so. http://www.rense.com
Communist Goals (1963) Congressional Record--
Appendix, pp. A34-A35 January 10, 1963
Current Communist Goals
EXTENSION OF REMARKS OF HON. A. S. HERLONG, JR. OF FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES Thursday, January 10, 1963 .
Mr. HERLONG. Mr. Speaker, Mrs. Patricia Nordman of De Land, Fla., is an ardent and articulate opponent of communism, and until recently published the De Land Courier, which she dedicated to the purpose of alerting the public to the dangers of communism in America.
At Mrs. Nordman's request, I include in the RECORD, under unanimous consent, the following "Current Communist Goals," which she identifies as an excerpt from "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen:[From "The Naked Communist," by Cleon Skousen]
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
Note by Webmaster: The Congressional Record back this far has not be digitized and posted on the Internet.
It will probably be available at your nearest library that is a federal repository. Call them and ask them. Your college library is probably a repository. This is an excellent source of government records. Another source are your Congress Critters. They should be more than happy to help you in this matter. You will find the Ten Planks of the Communist Manifesto interesting at this point.

1963- The Year That Changed America
By Greg Swank
12-4-2
Over the years, I have shared in debates and discussions regarding the current state of affairs in the U.S., and the changing social climate of this great nation. Since the "baby-boomer" generation, society and its culture have become noticeably different than the way it was 50 years ago. From the late 50's to the 70's a series of events took place contributing to the way we are currently living. However, like anything else, there has to be a starting point at which the wheels are put into motion. Sometimes it can be a single event, such as war, but more often, it is a series of events, some intentional, some planned, others unpredictable. There is always a pivotal point when things begin to change. I believe that time was 1963.
For my generation, some of the following will certainly stir old memories. If you born later, this may serve as a brief history lesson into the times your parents traveled through.
By 1963 television was the leading sources of entertainment. The public enjoyed a different type of programming back then. Lessons on life could be viewed weekly on "Leave it to Beaver" or "My Three Sons." There were hero's back then that never drew blood, "The Lone Ranger" and "The Adventures of Superman." Cartoon series evolved, such as, "The Flintstones" and "The Jetsons" without messages of empowering the children, using vulgarities or demeaning parental guidance. Family's could spend a weekend evening watching "Ed Sullivan," "Bonanza" or "Gunsmoke." For those who enjoyed thrill and suspense, we were blessed with "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and the "Twilight Zone." 'My Favorite Martian," "Ozzie and Harriet," "Donna Reed" and "Sea Hunt" also kept viewers entertained weekly.
Movie theaters were not multiplex units with 15 screens, rather, one single, giant big screen with adequate sound and hard seats without springs. "Tom Jones" had won the Academy award for best picture. "How The West Was Won," "Cleopatra," "Lily of the Fields," "The Great Escape," "The Birds," and "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" were all box office hits.
By years end, "The Beatles" had played for the British Royal Family and were laying the groundwork to conquer the U.S. the following year. Eric Clapton began his journey to fame with Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Jim McCarty and their band, "The Yardbirds." Out on the west coast the surf was beginning to rock'n'roll with "The Beach Boys" and their first song to reach the top ten list, "Surfin' U.S.A."
"Joys of Jell-O" recipes for quivering florescent foodstuff hit the stores. U.S. Postal rates went up to five cents for the first ounce. AT&T introduced touch-tone telephones. The Yankees played in the World Series again; but lost to the Dodgers in four straight. The government and NASA began the Apollo program.
This is just a brief snapshot of some things that were going on back in 1963. Remember?
While some of these events played an important role in the direction of change that affect us today, many of them were lost to much greater, more political events, that I believe put everything into motion.
On January 10, 1963, the House of Representative and later the Senate began reviewing a document entitled "Communist Goals for Taking Over America." It contained an agenda of 45 separate issues that, in hindsight was quite shocking back then and equally shocking today. Here, in part, are some key points listed in that document.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
You can see the entire list on this web page - http://www.truthtrek.net/politics/takeover.htm
Now, I am not saying that the U.S. is under some kind of Communist control, but what I do find frightening, is of the 45 issues listed, nearly all of them have come to pass. Remember this was in January 1963.
In 1963 the news media showed women burning their bras as the women's liberation movement took off with the publishing of "The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan. Martin Luther King was jailed in April and civil unrest was being brought to the forefront. On August 28th the media brought us live coverage of the march on Washington and Dr. Kings famous "I had a dream" speech. The Cuban missile crisis found its way in to our homes and our nation was gearing up for conflict.
By September of 1963 we had lost some very influential people, Pope John XXIII, Robert Frost, and country legend Patsy Cline, to name a few. In the early hours of November 22nd we learned of the quiet passing of C.S. Lewis and hours later we were brought to our knees when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated and our nation mourned.
So you see, while long since forgotten, 1963 could very well have been, one of the most important years since our founding fathers provided us with the Constitution of the United States. Which brings me to one final and extremely important decision that was made during this most provocative year.
On June 17, 1963 the U.S. Supreme Court concluded that any Bible reciting or prayer, in public schools, was deemed unconstitutional.
While American's have endured great prosperity over the past 40 years we have also lost our moral compass and direction. In reviewing the research, data supports 1963 as a focal point, demonstrating a downward slope in our moral and social decline through 2001.
Certainly, one would have to agree that all of these events have had a profound impact on the way our current social structure has been changed. Personally, if I had to choose one specific event that has demonstrated the demoralization of our country, it would have to be the decision of the U.S Supreme Court in June of 1963.
But there is always "hope." As always, I welcome your comments and can easily be reached. Thanks for the response to "Daddy, What's Fluoride?" My email is: greg@truthtrek.net

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
You can see the entire list on this web page - http://www.truthtrek.net/politics/takeover.htm
Now, I am not saying that the U.S. is under some kind of Communist control, but what I do find frightening, is of the 45 issues listed, nearly all of them have come to pass. Remember this was in January 1963.
In 1963 the news media showed women burning their bras as the women's liberation movement took off with the publishing of "The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan. Martin Luther King was jailed in April and civil unrest was being brought to the forefront. On August 28th the media brought us live coverage of the march on Washington and Dr. Kings famous "I had a dream" speech. The Cuban missile crisis found its way in to our homes and our nation was gearing up for conflict.
By September of 1963 we had lost some very influential people, Pope John XXIII, Robert Frost, and country legend Patsy Cline, to name a few. In the early hours of November 22nd we learned of the quiet passing of C.S. Lewis and hours later we were brought to our knees when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated and our nation mourned.
So you see, while long since forgotten, 1963 could very well have been, one of the most important years since our founding fathers provided us with the Constitution of the United States. Which brings me to one final and extremely important decision that was made during this most provocative year.
On June 17, 1963 the U.S. Supreme Court concluded that any Bible reciting or prayer, in public schools, was deemed unconstitutional.
While American's have endured great prosperity over the past 40 years we have also lost our moral compass and direction. In reviewing the research, data supports 1963 as a focal point, demonstrating a downward slope in our moral and social decline through 2001.
Certainly, one would have to agree that all of these events have had a profound impact on the way our current social structure has been changed. Personally, if I had to choose one specific event that has demonstrated the demoralization of our country, it would have to be the decision of the U.S Supreme Court in June of 1963.
But there is always "hope." As always, I welcome your comments and can easily be reached. Thanks for the response to "Daddy, What's Fluoride?" My email is: greg@truthtrek.net

Electrical Stimulation Will Replace Drugs
Author is quoted saying, "For instance, pills will be obsolete, Linden says. Instead, scientists will be able to stimulate particular parts of the brain, perhaps with an implant, and control or create different behaviors as an outgrowth of that stimulation." This invasive procedure began with José M. R. Delgado in the 1960s. For at least 20 years the US Government is conducting involuntary experiments on humans using and testing electrical devices for treating alleged mental illnesses. The same devices are used illegally by police, crime families, and psychiatrists for extra legal punishment, harassment and provocations. Journalists pretend to be, or are ignorant about these abuses and ridicule the victims.
[From Book review]
"As weight drops, fat mass may decrease, but this decline instigates a stronger desire to eat and a slower metabolic rate.
“This is a sad but unavoidable truth that the multibillion-dollar-a-year diet industry doesn’t want you to know,” Linden writes.

Illegal Aliens Have Rights but Not Citizens
Massachusetts is a wonderful place. When I worked for a company that did not pay me, I had to write to the US Department of Labor. There were no lawyers to help me, a poor citizen of the country. Isn't it inspiring that illegal immigrants have rights that citizens do not? It is why Howie Carr says all he wants is to be treated like an illegal alien. If stopped by police with illegal drugs, driving with no license or no insurance the police just let them go. But a citizen is arrested. The Social Security Administration (SSA) does not investigate illegal aliens who use fake social security numbers to collect SSA benefits. But the SSA harasses citizens who purchase US Savings Bonds to see if they have too many resources. Recipients are allowed to have up to $2,000, a limit set in 1989, or SSA cuts the benefits. And if the citizen dares to appeal, the SSA just ignores the citizen's complaints. But illegal aliens, they get taxpayer funded attorneys to help them. Why is there a disclaimer on the telephone greeting for Greater Boston Legal Services that says they cannot help illegal aliens but they do so here? If the illegal alien does not admit he or she is illegal then the taxpayer funded lawyers help them too? Clever these immigrants. They know how to exploit American taxpayers' good will for their own benefit.

Police Harass Harmless Civilians Not Criminals
Three young men carrying deadly weapons robbed a man on his way home from work. None were under surveillance. For 30 years police watch me and harass me every day 24/7/365. They deny it saying there is no reason why they would do this. Ridicule passes for reason. Unlike misguided popular beliefs, police abuse harmless civilians, not dangerous criminals with weapons.

Henry Louis Mencken: First they pass laws [create technology] to use against the sons of bitches. Then they use them against the rest of us. Technology is amoral. Historically every new invention was used for both good and evil. What is to stop criminals e.g. from placing monitoring devices on vehicles to reveal when a person is far enough away for his/her home?
Police have and use a lot of high tech weapons that they do not broadcast to the public. If police use these high tech weapons you can be certain that organized crime is also using them. Now that the US Government is run by the Crime Families National Commission, the FBI and their obedient police agencies target critics of government and not criminals. The recent arrests of ten Russian agents and quick return to Russia by Obama's legal wizard AG indicates the attitude of the elected officials to criminals -- Cover it up. As Noam Chomsky observed the goal is to keep the herd bewildered.

Campaigner Obama Not Up To The Job
This is typical of Obama. He is uncomfortable making decisions, and ordering people to act. He has no spine. He is a product of academics.
Michael Savage said last week that Obama's first fund raising event was in Hollywood. He is wrong. The first fund raiser was in Cambridge at the home of a Harvard professor attended by Harvard professors.
When he was elected US senator he hired the chief of staff of Tom Dascle, telling him he knows how to make a speech but he does not know how "to get things done around here [the Senate]." Two years later he became President with no skills beyond speechifying. He loves being head of state, representing the US at dinners and award ceremonies, especially when he gets the award. But he is incapable of being head of government. That is why this sort of thing became standard for the last two years in DC. His skill is making speeches; he is not able to make decisions.
The flatterers around him keep telling him what a great job he is doing and the media mostly joins in. His vanity overrules realty.
There are so many major thefts of taxpayer money going on that few can keep up. So many of the politicians just go along as long as they get in on the action.
Two below articles verify my intuition.

Teen Tweets Show Cluelessness Among Youth
Now 13 to 15 they spend much time online. Why are they unaware of Osama bin Laden? He is mentioned most days on some news sites. I knew who the president was when I was 10. Do schools no longer teach current events? Quality of political leaders and journalists indicate extreme dumbing down of US population.

Population Problems
Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a
way that you can quickly understand them. This quote came
from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has it figured
out. It was translated into English from an article in the
Prague newspaper Prager Zeitungon on 04.28.2010.
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a
citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the
Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the
follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary
common sense and good judgment to a depraved 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 America. 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, who is, after all,
merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of
fools, such as those who made him their president."

Journalists Resume Character Assassination of Palin
In the sidebar of his essay on the capture of bin Laden, ("Grand Bam opportunity to unite US," New York Post, May 4, 2011) Michael Goodwin says of Gov. Palin, "she congratulated every body involved except President Obama." Not so. She thanked the President, contrary to the continuing elitist propaganda campaign to discredit her. CBS News edited out her thanking the president from their video, but admitted she did so in the text of their report. (See CBS and YouTube below). Surprisingly Mr. Goodwin did not listen to the complete video of her speech. Instead he took a cheap shot and got it wrong like most of his inept colleagues. Will this factual error cost Goodwin as dearly as he threatens his misreporting will cost Gov. Palin?
[From sidebar page two of article]
"Failin' Palin
Sarah Palin's been sinking in the polls, and that was before her latest mistake. In a speech about bin Laden, she congratulated every body involved except President Obama. It was a cheap shot that will cost her plenty."

MA Police Corruption
Police deny pervasive corruption. The county of Middlesex was disbanded due to saturation corruption. This one was investigated due to an anonymous tip. The state law enforcement community never investigates itself. James Bulger killed 20 civilians who reported him to the FBI. One criminal court clerk in Middlesex sold search warrants to drug dealers. One party governments are corrupt. Open your eyes and stop lying to the voters and taxpayers.

Racially Pure Congressional Districts
Regarding affirmative action congressional redistricting, according to the figures cited in this essay white people are 48 percent of the 8th Congressional district. Why is there no affirmative action and reparation scheduled for white people in the 8th?
[From essay]
"Sen. Brown objects to gerrymandering that “dilut[es] the voting strength of citizens based on the color of their skin.” But no one involved seems concerned in the slightest with gerrymandering that concentrates the voting strength of citizens based on the color of their skin.
[. . .]
The discussion is analogous to that surrounding affirmative action. If it’s racist to exclude students or job-seekers based on the color of their skin, why should it be praiseworthy to promote applicants based on skin color? Martin Luther King dreamed of “a nation where [his children] will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Racial gerrymandering makes a mockery of this dream."

"most in the administration came to Washington from either academia or prior state and federal government employment, where policy is theoretical, without grounding in real experience."

Is This The Same Obama?
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies…
Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here.” Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.”
- Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), March 20, 2006

Racism Abuses
Letterman does not define what he means by the word "racism." One definition of racism is "I don't like what you said." Another is "I disagree with you." A third is "I don't like you." There is a real phenomenon called racism. Due to over use for trivial purposes, the concept has lost much of its meaning. Anyone not in a coma in the USA knows it is likely the worst thing that can be said about a person. It is worse to be called a racist than a murderer. Priorities are severely distorted with that word. Propagandists who call themselves journalists are mostly to blame for the demise of public discourse. If words can have any meaning they have no meaning at all.

Drug Company Abuses
[From article]
"Charged with fraud, TAP pleaded guilty to illegal marketing and agreed to settle the case by paying $875 million -- the largest settlement of a medical-fraud case in U.S. history. In November, a judge approved a $150 million settlement in a class-action suit brought by Lupron patients, pushing the potential total the company will pay to more than $1 billion.[. . .]
Patients pay more for medications they may not need and that may actually have harmful side effects.
[. . .]
In 2000, Merck spent more to market Vioxx than Anheuser-Busch spent pitching Budweiser.
[. . .]
federal and state governments generally only prosecute cases of fraud involving Medicare or Medicaid
[. . .]
Last year, pharmaceutical companies spent a combined $3.8 billion on direct-to-consumer advertising, an expense the companies say is necessary to keep the public informed about breakthrough drugs. But the amount spent on consumer advertising was only a small portion of the industry's combined $21 billion marketing budgets.
[one doctor] charged some $38,000 for drugs he got for free,"

Bad Medicine
Drug companies, already under fire for selling medications that don't work, are bribing doctors to prescribe pills you don't need.
