How Much Violence is Caused by Psychiatry?
Psychiatry is personal opinion masquerading as science. It is nonsense to blame an illness for crime. Mental illnesses are created by consensus like global warming. People believe in them as they believe in global warming. Psychiatric drugs are known to cause violent thoughts and violent actions. If you stop taking their drugs even the psychiatrists admit that. But journalists refuse to publish that fact, because? So if you will be violent if you stop taking drugs why start? It is a convenient argument to keep patients drinking the kool aid. You can fool all the people most of the time.

In Honduras Zelaya Complains of Microwave Attacks
"It was just past 2am when the music blasted us from our sleep. Honduran soldiers had placed high-powered speakers just outside the embassy compound for a night-long, deafening serenade."
"One song in particular, Two-legged Rat, was repeated again, and again, and again. The lyrics are not subtle: "Filthy rat/crawling animal/scum of life/ill-made monstrosity/subhuman/mirror image of hell/damned louse/how much damage you've done to me."
"In the first weeks, Zelaya was sleeping in the much larger office of ambassador, but then he thought the room was too vulnerable. He claims he is being subjected to an "electron bombardment with microwaves" which produces 'headache and organic destabilisation.'"
"To try to protect from these alleged attacks, all windows of the office where Zelaya spends much of his time with his closest aides or on the phone were covered with aluminium foil, creating a sort of low-budget sci-fi movie set."
"Besides the microwave bombardment, Zelaya also complains about the devices blocking mobile phone signals. On Saturday, he was forced to climb the small hill in the yard of the embassy, the only place where the connection is not cut off after a few seconds."
"The worst days were between 16 and 21 October 16, when army troops and police officers broke the silence in the night with loud noises. In addition to music, they used horns and imitated the screaming of animals, including cats, dogs, horses and cockerels, waking up almost everybody inside."

Conservative Party Candidate Ousts Republican in NY
In NY's 23rd Congressional District the Republican candidate's support has collapsed. Sarah Palin and others backed the Conservative Party candidate, who now leads in the polls. If this is a pattern it suggests that incumbents can be challenged and defeated due to the growing anger of voters.

Eating Right Helps Cure Cancer
With JAMA publishing this has a chance of succeeding. Pasteur revealed that washing hands between treating patients stopped the spread of bacteria and prevented unnecessary deaths.Today 130 years later some doctors still refuse to adopt this simple prevention technique. The reference to the cancer industry is almost correct. The problem is the research industry's grants to seek cures. See also drday.com for history of curing cancer without chemo.

NAMI is Not a Civil Rights Advocate
This article like others from the lazy journalist class cites NAMI as a mental health advocate. The terms are misleading. NAMI advocates for drug treatment not for constitutional rights or for humans. NAMI gets $3 million each year from drug companies to promote drug treatment. US Senator Grassley investigates their abuses.
http://www.ahrp.org/cms/content/view/644/36/
NAMI Constituency Revealed
AHRP.com
Saying the museum inhibits persons from seeking treatment shows their focus. If NAMI was truly interested in ending discrimination against persons with disabilities and helping them enjoy their basic constitutional rights, they would lobby against forced treatment which violates the US Constitution. They would object to negative bias among politicians, judges, prosecutors, Police, FBI, human services corporations, and journalists. These people every day refer to persons with disabilities as violent and scare others from allowing them to enjoy their rights.
NAMI encourages this stigma because the victims of the discrimination are forced into the hands of psychiatrists who will prescribe drugs for the drug companies. NAMI focuses on promoting drug treatment and leaves intact government regulations and laws which are egregious abuses of persons with disabilities. NAMI's funding comes from corporations which earn billions pushing toxic chemicals on humans. These drugs are known to cause violent thoughts and acts after starting and stopping taking these chemicals. If the drugs cause violence why start? Promoting dangerous drugs must end. NAMI ignores the constitutional rights of persons with disabilities. They advocate for drug companies not humans.

Double Standards in Honduras
The deal [to restore Manuel Zelaya to power], a diplomatic victory for U.S. President Barack Obama, leaves it up to the Honduran Congress to decide whether Zelaya can be restored to serve the last few months of his term -- the question that caused earlier talks to stumble.
A Congress vote is expected in the next few days, after the Supreme Court gives a non-binding opinion on the matter."
The US homosexual lobby uses the courts to thwart democracy preventing a vote by the people on same sex marriage. But in Honduras the Obama hypocrites want their Congress to decide whether the court correctly removed Zelaya. This is second guessing the highest court by an outside imperial power. The double standards pervasive in the Obama administration extends to foreign policy. It is evidence of the extreme abuses of power that Obama is willing to go in order to impose his politics on the US and others.

Why Journalists Love Psychiatric Drugs
Journalists ignore toxic effects of psychiatric drugs. Taking them and stopping is known to be the cause of suicidal and violent thoughts. If the chemicals cause violence when stopped why start? What role did drugs play in the violence at MGH? Selling chemicals with unknown effects on humans is a lucrative business based on irrational beliefs. Laws benefiting the psychiatric industry are written by politicians who get campaign contributions from drug companies. Psychiatry is personal opinion masquerading as science. Politicians and journalists submit to the masters of deception for economic and career benefits. Police love psychiatry which negates due process protections. Judges use psychiatry to avoid accountability. Everybody makes psychiatric diagnoses which are readily published in newspapers and broadcast on radio and TV. Psychiatry medicalizes human emotions, unpopular speech and behavior that is protected by the US Constitution. Drug companies fear any suggestion that their products cause violence. Their influence keeping evidence of dangerous drugs out of the public discourse is legendary. What happened to healthy skepticism among journalist regarding a business that eliminates freedom? How many journalists are taking psychiatric drugs?

What difference did it make in The Wire who was Mayor, who was Police Commissioner or who controlled the corners? The struggle for more power continued. Only the players changed. How is this different from what is happening in DC or MA? Governments are controlled by economic interest groups.

City Police Have Jurisdiction Over All
Harvard's prestige and money dazzles small-minded journalists who promote popular misconceptions of law. Harvard campus cops (special state police officers and deputies sheriff) do not have exclusive jurisdiction on Harvard property. They have state police powers only on Harvard property. They do not have jurisdiction to enforce city ordinances. Cambridge and Boston police have jurisdiction on Harvard property. Harvard likes to keep all criminal matters under their control to prevent embarrassing events becoming public (see e.g., the poisoning of med students in August). Is research no longer fashionable among journalists?

Attorney "Perullo said the results of toxicology and blood tests should reveal why Carciero became enraged at Desrosiers." Drug companies love to demonize victims of their toxic chemicals which often cause violence. Blaming the victims of psychiatric abuse covers-up for the drug corporations' liability.

Wilders’ Speech Should Be Protected
Geert de Wilders
By Roy Bercaw
Columbia Spectator
Published Wednesday 28 October 2009 07:10pm EST.
http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2009/10/28/letter-editor-0
To the editor:
Geert Wilders’ appearance indicates Columbia is re-establishing tolerance, as reported in “Dutch leader tests free speech,” (Oct. 23, 2009), and Adel Elsohly’s op-ed, “Wild, wild Wilders,” (Oct. 22, 2009.), but attacks on free expression continue.
“We are fundamentally accepting of freedom of speech,” said Elsohly. “What are denied are hateful and derisive comments.” Everyone supports speech that they like: Elsohly’s standard. The idea of free speech is to protect speech that you hate.
Elsohly argued that ‘freedom from fear’ is just as important as freedom of speech.” Under what system? Without free speech all other freedoms disappear. Try ending criminal abuse without expressing critical speech.
Ancient Greece thrived during 1200 years of free speech. There was no law or constitutional provision. It was a tradition.
Saying Wilders “would have us all give up not only our right to practice our religions but also our ability to see value in cultures that do not adhere to his perspective” is not logical. Criticizing religion is protected speech.
Saying “The line between freedom of speech and hate speech intent on inciting fear of Islam and Muslims within the greater community was crossed” makes no sense. Hate speech is protected speech. Who drew the line? Freedom from fear is not a right. “Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one,” Ben Franklin said. Equating speech with suicide bombers or beheading nuns for criticizing religion is distorted speech. Passing a course in logic should be required for participation in public discourse.
John Stuart Mill wanted to guarantee freedom of expression so that good ideas were given the chance to drive out bad ones. Bad speech is defeated by more speech, not less.

Bercaw was chairman of a University-wide group of students elected to meet with a Committee of the Trustees to study restructuring Columbia in 1968-69

Speedy Justice in Patient Killing
Two days after a licensed gunman shot dead a person with a disability the DA says it was lawful. Why does it take two years or more to decide the guilt of an ordinary person? Did Langone get preferential treatment? Is he connected politically? Journalists continue to demonize the murder victim. The killing may be technically legal. It is offensively immoral. Why do laws allow loaded weapons by private persons in a treatment facility? Why do police vigorously support this killing? In enlightened jurisdictions violent persons can be disarmed with proper training. Langone was trained in firearms. Was he trained to deal with disturbed persons without deadly force?

Human services corporations give hundreds to the politicians who give them back billions each year. Funding for psychiatrists and drug companies will not be cut. Only funding for vulnerable persons who have no clout which is all that matters in this one party corrupt state.

Stimulus and Gov't Control Needed
MGH is a high crime area like courthouses, city hall and the state house. An Obama stimulus grant will solve the problem, if MGH allows Obama, Emmanuel, Pelosi, Barney Frank, Axelrod to control the hospital and medical school. They run banks, wars, auto companies and newspapers. A hospital should be a breeze. Violence was inherited from George Bush anyway. Grab a broom and help The One.

Animosity Toward Vulnerable Persons
Saying the man with a disability was "a raging madman" is evidence that journalists at the Herald have an intense animosity toward persons with disabilities. When multi millionaire tenured Harvard professor Henry Gates was arrested for disorderly conduct the President, the Governor and the Cambridge Mayor questioned the veracity of police Sgt. Crowley. Why is a licensed gunman believed and cheered without question? Does it have anything to do with the pervasive hatred of persons with disabilities? Was Langone and his loaded licensed pistol at the treatment and research facility because of his compassion and training for interacting with persons with disabilities? Journalists act as if psychiatrists are always sensitive and all-knowing and never err. A little scrutiny of what kind of psychiatric experiments was done at that building would help uncover more psychiatric abuses. What happened to skepticism and objectivity?

Killer of Patient Cheered
"Mass. General security director Bonnie S. Michelman praised Langone for his 'heroic' actions. Michelman added that 'everyone was happy he was there.'" Was Jay Carciero and his family glad too? When multi millionaire and tenured Harvard Professor Henry Gates was arrested for disorderly conduct the President, the Governor and the Mayor spoke out about historical police abuses and questioned Sgt. Crowley's veracity. When a licensed gunman shoots dead a vulnerable person with a disability the shooter is called a hero. Why is this cop wannabe's account more believable than a trained police officer? This is equal protection of the laws and equal treatment by journalists? The cop wannabe just happened to be in the psychiatric treatment and research building? What kind of psychiatric human experiments are conducted by these researchers? What effect did the drugs if any that Mr. Carciero was taking or not taking have on his conduct? Why was an untrained (in interacting with vulnerable persons) licensed gunman allowed into a psychiatric treatment building with a loaded weapon? Is Mr. Langone "a caring guy who always takes care of others," known for his compassion toward persons with disabilities? Is that why he was there with his loaded pistol? How many more persons with disabilities will be murdered and their killers cheered?

Retaliation for Hate Speech?
This essay was rational until the last paragraph asking, "How, then, are we supposed to react to people like Wilders? The first step is giving them a taste of their own medicine." John Stuart Mill supported free expression so that in case we are wrong about a belief we can correct our misconception. If we are correct we can affirm what we believe. Responding to unpopular speech with more unpopular speech "to give them a taste of their own medicine" is childish. Censoring speech restricts freedom. Repeatedly in the name of religion violence was used to silence speech critical of Islam. There is the concurrent harm of the chilling effect. How many people now fear speaking out because of fear of being killed? The notion of free speech is to protect speech that you hate. If it is wrong show how. If hate speech is correct it needs to be adopted no matter how hateful. But if it is censored how can it be evaluated?

Is Coffee Poisoning Factual?
The intentional poisoning theory does not make sense. Who would want to harm a medical student? They are altruistic and help people. They save lives. Who opposes that? Perhaps this is imaginary illness, and associative behavior as their colleagues would call it. Have any of these "victims" been in therapy? More importantly if this event really happened, why did the Harvard campus police withhold the facts from the Harvard community and the public for two months? Why have the Boston Police, the state police and Homeland Security been shut out of the investigation? Are they not to be trusted? This may be a terrorist poisoning ring. If a poisoning ring is operating in the Boston area people need to know and so they can take precautions. On the other hand if this is a hoax the perpetrators need to be identified and punished for spreading false rumors. Can Harvard campus police be trusted not to abuse their power? The Commonwealth should investigate the HUPD immediately and thoroughly. Campus police powers are special privileges.

Psychiatric Industry Thrives Without Stimulus
Headline shows bias. These are humans with disabilities. They are not diseases. The important fact omitted is greedy psychiatrists and drug companies did not have their funding cut, only safe havens for persons with disabilities to hang. When will the corruption of the psychiatric industry be exposed? Greedy pols take campaign money to maintain funding for the human services corporations. Persons with disabilities with up to 85 percent unemployment do not have PACs or lobbyists. How long before MA police begin shooting mental patients? Oh they already started. They're using private security vigilantes.

Cambridge and Harvard Racism
Racism is alive and well in Cambridge MA. Black racism flourishes in the host city of Harvard and MIT. For a disorderly conduct arrest black racists and their guilt-ridden white enablers continue to focus on the meaningless. Harvard Law School, Harvard Kennedy School of Government, Cambridge City government, MA state government continue to ignore the murders of 19 white men and women by FBI informants assisted by FBI Special Agents.
If these allegedly concerned academics and politicians were really interested in good government they would be on the case of the local and state police and the FBI which allowed this to happen. They remain silent as well about the frame-up for murder of four white men by the FBI. Two died in prison, two were released after 30 years. This is a non issue for these hypocrite black racists. But a disorderly conduct arrest of a multi millionaire tenured Harvard professor is a teachable moment? It is continuing propaganda warfare by black racist collectivists to destroy Constitutional government and individual rights.

Obama and Senate Mislead on Health Care Bill
The Senate bill "controls doctors by cutting their pay if they give older patients more care than the government deems appropriate."
Obama claims "patients who get less care -- fewer hospital days, doctors' visits and imaging tests -- have the same medical 'outcomes' as patients who get more care."
'Doctors [examining patients with heart failure at six CA teaching hospitals] found that hospitals giving more care saved more lives. In hospitals that spent less, patients had a smaller chance of survival. That's the opposite of what Obama is claiming and Congress is proposing."
The Senate bill "may save money, but the CA study suggest it will cost lives."
"When Medicare started in 1965, the law forbade the federal government from interfering in treatment decisions."

Media Makes the Politicians?
Obama snubbed NY Gov. Paterson showing his love for Cuomo. Are Obama and Cuomo products of media images?
"If you think Cuomo's probe of Lewis is misguided, consider some of his other pet projects. He investigated the bond-rating agencies -- which slapped all those Triple-A ratings on near-worthless mortgage debt -- without forcing the raters to do anything more than make some marginal added disclosures. The raters' conflicted business model of being paid by the companies they're rating remains firmly intact.
[. . .]
Cuomo's record isn't all bad. Early in his career, he broke with conventional wisdom and issued a report showing how the homeless were afflicted with mental illness or drug addiction, rather than simply down on their luck.
[In]

Obama snubbed NY Gov. Paterson showing his love for Cuomo. Are Obama and Cuomo products of media images?
"If you think Cuomo's probe of Lewis is misguided, consider some of his other pet projects. He investigated the bond-rating agencies -- which slapped all those Triple-A ratings on near-worthless mortgage debt -- without forcing the raters to do anything more than make some marginal added disclosures. The raters' conflicted business model of being paid by the companies they're rating remains firmly intact.
[. . .]
Cuomo's record isn't all bad. Early in his career, he broke with conventional wisdom and issued a report showing how the homeless were afflicted with mental illness or drug addiction, rather than simply down on their luck.

Patient Shot Dead by Cop Wannabe
Patient Shot Dead by Cop Wannabe
Journalists continue to publish negative bias against persons with disabilities. The latest event describes a gunman shooting to death a person with a disability. Police deny to persons with disabilities protection from crime and harassment. Psychiatrists abuse their power ignoring laws protecting persons with disabilities. When the power mongers get the reaction they sought they demonize the victim of their abuses. How many more persons with disabilities will be murdered and their killers applauded by the depraved society in which they live? Mass General Hospital is getting to be as high a crime area as courthouses and city halls.
If the patient confronted the gunman and ordered him to drop it, and when he refused the patient stabbed the gunman to death would he be cheered? What gives this gunman the right to give orders? Is vigilantism now legal in this lawless one-party state? Was the shooter a liberal Democrat?
[Alternative version reporting this event.]
Gunman shoots dead a person with a disability. Reacting to long term psychiatric abuses the victim refused to take it any more. The abused civilian returned the long term violence which the psychiatrist unleashed on him in the name of treatment. Forced psychiatric drugs made the victim violent causing the victim to strike out at his abusers. Lucky for the abusers a cop wannabe was nearby with his licensed deadly weapon. When the person with a disability failed to obey the cop wannabe the gunman shot him dead and was cheered by the blood-thirsty police, psychiatrists, journalists and citizens who love to hate persons with disabilities.

Politics Ruins Schools
Unsure that Craig Kelley's assessment of Cambridge as the standard for success "in a diverse urban environment" is merited. Having elitist universities makes it more difficult to focus public attention on public secondary schools. Children of Cambridge academics mostly attend private schools and have little interest in the public schools. New York City with a population 70 times greater attracts relatively much more attention on public schools than Cambridge does. Having a zombie-like electorate which supports political tampering with school time promoting non educational political issues over basic learning is why Cambridge fails to succeed with all of its funding. The focus is political not educational. Having a Mayor who teaches bad lessons to students is only one example of why this city fails. Not even the local newspaper recognizes the problem.

A Message to the HMS Community Regarding the Incident at NRB
As you may be aware, we have been investigating an incident that occurred on August 26, 2009, when six members of our community were seen in the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center emergency room after drinking coffee from the same single serve, manual-fill coffee machine located in an open common area on the eighth floor of the HMS New Research Building (NRB). All reported similar symptoms. Five employees were treated and released that day; one was held overnight and released the next morning.
Since late August, an HMS leadership team has been working closely with Harvard University Police Department and a team of health and safety experts on an extensive investigation of the incident. We also are in contact with the Boston Public Health Commission and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
While we do not yet know how this incident occurred, we have recently learned that sodium azide, a preservative commonly used in laboratories, was present in the coffee consumed by the six employees. As the investigation continues, we are being prudent and taking additional precautionary measures to ensure the well being of our community.
As always, we are mindful of the need to be diligent about laboratory safety and security and the importance of proper management of laboratory chemicals. Last year we convened a task force to make recommendations that will further promote the security and safety of laboratories throughout HMS, and we are now in the process of implementing a number of these recommendations, which include the following:
•Safety professionals will be meeting with laboratory representatives to discuss ways to enhance the best practices already in place throughout HMS for chemical usage and management.
•We are in the process of installing additional security cameras throughout our buildings, and we are strengthening the security systems that manage access to the laboratories during both normal business hours and off hours.
HMS leadership is committed to doing everything possible to understand what may have occurred, and we will notify you at the conclusion of the ongoing investigation. In the interim, if you have any questions or information, please contact Rick Shea at Richard_Shea@hms.harvard.edu.
Sincerely,
Daniel G. Ennis

Do Psychiatry and Psychology Belong in the Criminal Justice System?
There is no doubt that "Psychology and neuroscience are increasingly informing and challenging some of the assumptions of the criminal justice system, and the mind science promise to help sharpen and clarify legal concepts." But does this improve the criminal justice system? Psychiatry and psychology are opinion based masquerading as science. Law and psychiatry are both systems of social control. Psychiatry has the advantage of operating without due process protections. Police love psychiatry. Nazis medicalized social problems as does psychiatry. There is no appeal from a medical opinion. Lawyers do not predict the future. Psychiatrists and psychologists do that in court to enable judges to avoid accountability. In so far as these "mind sciences" are arbitrary and capricious they should be banned from law courts and the criminal justice system. But when it comes to faith it is easier to open a rock than a mind.

Nonsense Passes for Opinion
It is illogical to say that Wilders "would have us all give up not only our right to practice our religions but also our ability to see value in cultures that do not adhere to his perspective." Criticizing religion is protected speech and does not deny free practice of religion. Opposing such speech is censorship.
Saying "the line between freedom of speech and hate speech intent on inciting fear of Islam and Muslims within the greater community was crossed." makes no sense. Hate speech is protected speech. How is Wilders' intent established? Denying hate speech is promoting censorship. Freedom from fear is not a right. People who give up their freedom for security deserve neither. Equating speech with suicide bombers, beheading nuns for criticizing religion shows how distorted the minds of liberal college students are these days. Passing a course in logic should be required for participation in public discourse.

Persecuted Dutch Politician, Geert de Wilders, Speaks at Columbia
Geert de Wilders
[From article]
Wilders’ appearance sparked substantial controversy, as he is known for his provocative calls to end Muslim immigration to the Netherlands and impose a national ban of the Quran. The Republicans maintained that their invitation was not an endorsement of Wilders’ views—which they characterized as “extreme”—but rather a defense of free speech.
[. . .]
“We felt that inviting Mr. Wilders would provide Columbia with a view into what freedom of speech is like in other parts of the world, how it has been limited, and how it is very important that we continue to fight for that freedom,” College Republicans member and event organizer David Honeycutt said in a statement.
Wilders was invited to discuss free speech and his experience with repression. In February, the British government banned him from the country, though a court overturned the ban this month, and within the Netherlands there have been numerous calls for his prosecution. “I would not qualify myself as a free man anymore,” Wilders said.
He devoted much of his address to criticizing Islam, stating at various points, “The Quran is an evil book, full of violence, murder, terrorism, war,” “Muhammad was not a perfect man—he was a mass murderer and a pedophile,” and “Europe is in the process of becoming ‘Eurabia.’” He maintained that he did not hate Muslims, distinguishing between the Muslim people and the “ideology” of Islam.
“We didn’t invite him to talk about his views on Islam,” the Republicans wrote in a statement released on Thursday. “We find the fact that he spent so much of his speech talking about those views regrettable, but he did explain that those views play a part in his concern for free speech.”
Wilders sought to draw a direct connection between Islam and his own repression, stating, “Free speech is Islam’s enemy,” and calling cultural relativism and Muslim immigration obstacles of free speech.
[. . .]
“We are fundamentally accepting of freedom of speech, which is not denied in Islam,” said Adel Elsohly, a graduate adviser to the Muslim Students Association of Columbia. “What are denied are hateful and derisive comments.”

[Precisely the issue. Free speech is a concept to protect speech that you hate. Speech you like needs no protection. This is the essential point that censors like this student remains clueless.]
Elsohly argued that “freedom from fear” is just as important as freedom of speech, but added that the MSA chose not to protest the event in order to underscore its commitment to First Amendment principles. [Does the freedom from fear include the fear of being censored?]
[. . .]
Wilders’ appearance at Columbia came one day after he spoke at Temple University, where his speech was cut off midway through and his invitation officially rescinded due to student protests.

How to Run a Bus from Harvard Square to NYC
How to Run a Bus from Harvard Square to NYC
In this colorful election year the petitioner should attend a City Council meeting after having his issue placed on the agenda. City Councilors notoriously oppose inconvenient laws. Whether or not the law prohibits or allows an activity the council will support your petition if you contribute to their campaign. They imitate the US Congress in all ways. Then again the real power lies with the unelected City Manager who decides who does business in the city. He always responds positively to requests from university administrators. So the road to a Harvard-NYC bus line likely lies in the offices of the Harvard President, Provost and General Counsel.

I am a Jew
I am a Jew
Written by an Israeli named Dan Sporn
אני יהודי
נכתב ע"י ישראלי בשם דן ספורן
Our condition, in Israel , has never been better than it is now! Only
The television and the media make people think that the end of the
World is near.. Only 65 years ago, Jews were brought to death like
Sheep to slaughter. NO country, NO army. Only 60 years ago,
Seven Arab countries declared war on little Israel , the Jewish State,
Just a few hours after it was established.
המצב שלנו, בישראל, מעולם לא היה טוב יותר מאשר עכשיו!
רק הטלוויזיה והתקשורת גורמים לאנשים לחשוב שסוף העולם קרב.
רק לפני 65 שנים, יהודים הובאו למוות כצאן לטבח. ללא מדינה, ללא צבא.
רק לפני 60 שנים, 7 מדינות ערב הכריזו מלחמה על ישראל הקטנה, מדינת היהודים, רק כמה שעות לאחר היווסדה.
We were 650,000 Jews against the rest of the Arab world.
No IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) or Air Force. We were only a
Small group of stubborn people with nowhere to go.
היינו 650,000 יהודים כנגד שאר העולם הערבי.
ללא צה"ל (צבא הגנה לישראל) או חיל אוויר. היינו רק קבוצה קטנה של אנשים עקשנים עם שום מקום לאן ללכת.
Remember: Lebanon , Syria , Iraq , Jordan , Egypt , Libya , and
S Audi Arabia , they all attacked at once. The state that the
United Nations "gave" us was 65% desert. We started it from
Zero.
זכרו: לבנון, סוריה, עירק, ירדן, מצרים, לוב וערב הסעודית, כולם תקפו בעת ובעונה אחת.
המדינה שהאומות המאוחדות "נתנו" לנו הייתה 65% מדבר.
התחלנו את זה מאפס.
Only 41 years ago, we fought three of the strongest countries
In the Middle East , and we crushed them in the Six Day War.
רק לפני 41 שנים, נלחמנו נגד שלוש המדינות החזקות ביותר במזרח התיכון, וריסקנו אותם במלחמת ששת הימים.
Over the years we fought different coalitions of=2 0Arab countries
With modern armies and with huge amounts of Russian-Soviet
Ammunition, and we still won.
במהלך השנים נלחמנו בקואליציות שונות של 20 מדינות ערב עם צבאות חדשניים וכמות עצומה של תחמושת רוסית – סובייטית, ועדיין ניצחנו.
Today we have a beautiful country, a powerful Army, a strong
Air Force, an adequate Navy and a thriving high tech industry.
Intel, Microsoft, and IBM have all developed their businesses
Here.
היום יש לנו מדינה יפיפייה, צבא רב עוצמה, חיל אוויר חזק, חיל ים הולם ותעשיית הי-טק משגשגת.
אינטל, מיקרוסופט, ו- I.B.M פיתחו כולם את עסקיהם כאן.
Our doctors have won important prizes in the medical
Development field.
הרופאים שלנו זכו בפרסים חשובים בתחום הפיתוח הרפואי.
We turned the desert into a prosperous land.
הפכנו את המדבר לאדמה פורחת ומשגשגת.
We sell oranges, flowers, and vegetables around the world.
אנחנו מוכרים תפוזים, פרחים וירקות בכל רחבי העולם.
We launched our own satellite! Three satellites at once! We
Are in good company; together with the USA (280 million
Residents), Russia (220 million residents), China (1.3
Billion residents) and Europe ( France , England and Germany
35 million residents), we are one of the only countries in the
World that have launched something into space!
שיגרנו את הלווין שלנו! שלושה לווינים בעת ובעונה אחת! אנחנו בחברה טובה: יחד עם ארה"ב (280 מיליון תושבים), רוסיה (220 מיליון תושבים), סין (1.2 ביליון תושבים) ואירופה (צרפת, אנגליה וגרמניה 35 מיליון תושבים), אנחנו אחת מהמדינות הבודדות בעולם ששיגרו משהו לחלל!
Israel today is among the few powerful countries that have
Nuclear technology & capabilities. ( We will never admit it,
But everyone knows.)
ישראל היום היא בין המדינות הבודדות החזקות, שהיא בעלת טכנולוגיה ויכולות גרעיניות. (אנחנו לעולם לא נודה בזה, אבל כולם יודעים).
To think that only 65 years ago we were disgraced and
Hopeless.
לחשוב שרק לפני 65 שנים היינו מבוישים וחסרי תקווה.
We crawled out from the burning crematoriums of Europe .
We won in all our wars. With a little bit of nothing we built
An empire.
Who are Khaled Mashal (leader of Hamas) or Hassan Nasrallah
(leader of Hezbollah) trying to frighten us? They are amusing us.
זחלנו החוצה מהמשרפות הבוערות של אירופה.
ניצחנו בכל המלחמות שלנו. עם מעט מכלום בנינו אימפריה.
מי אלו חלאד משעל (מנהיג החמאס) או חסאן נסראללה (מנהיג החיזבאללה) המנסים להפחיד אותנו? הם משעשעים אותנו.
As we celebrate Independence Day, let's not forget what this
Holy day is all about; we overcame everything.
בזמן שאנחנו חוגגים את יום העצמאות, בואו לא נשכח מהי המהות של היום הקדוש הזה: התגברנו על הכל.
We overcame the Greeks,
התגברנו על היוונים,
We overcame the Romans,
התגברנו על הרומאים,
We overcame the Spanish Inquisition,
התגברנו על האינקוויזיציה הספרדית,
We overcame the Russians pogrom,
התגברנו על הפוגרום הרוסי,
We overcame Hitler , we overcame Germany and overcame the
Holocaust,
התגברנו על היטלר, התגברנו על גרמניה והתגברנו על השואה,
We overcame the armies of seven countries.
התגברנו על הצבאות של 7 מדינות
Relax chevray (friends), we will overcome our current enemies.
הירגעו חבר'ה, אנחנו נתגבר גם על האויבים הנוכחים
Never mind where you look in human history. Think about it,
The Jewish nation, our condition has never been better than now.
So let's lift our heads up and remember:
לא משנה לאן שנביט בהיסטוריה האנושית. תחשבו על זה, העם היהודי, מצבנו מעולם לא היה טוב יותר מאשר עכשיו.
אז בואו נישא ראשנו מעלה וזכרו:
Never mind which country or culture tries to harm us or erase us
From the world. We will still exist and persevere. Egypt ? Anyone
Know where the Egyptian empire disappeared to? The Greeks?
Alexander Macedon? The Romans? Is anyone speaking Latin
Today? The Third Reich? Did anyone hear news from them lately?
=0 D
לא משנה איזו מדינה או תרבות מנסה לפגוע בנו או למחוק אותנו מהעולם. אנחנו עדיין קיימים ושמורים.
מצריים? מישהו יודע לאן האימפריה המצרית נעלמה? היוונים? אלכסנדר מוקדון? הרומאים? האם מישהו מדבר לטינית היום? הרייך השלישי? האם מישהו שמע חדשות מהם לאחרונה?
And look at us, the Bible nation – from slavery in Egypt , we are
Still here, still speaking the same language.
Exactly here, exactly now.
והסתכלו עלינו, העם התנ"כי – מעבדות במצרים, אנחנו עדיין כאן, עדיין מדברים את אותה השפה.
בדיוק כאן, בדיוק עכשיו.
Maybe The Arabs don't know it yet, but we are an eternal nation.
All the time that we will keep our identity, we will stay eternal.
אולי הערבים עדיין לא יודעים את זה, אבל אנחנו עם נצחי.
כל זמן שנשמור על זהותנו, נשאר נצחיים.
So, sorry that we are not worrying, complaining, crying, or fearing…
אז סליחה שאנחנו לא דואגים, מתלוננים, בוכים או פוחדים.....
Business here is beseder (fine). It can definitely be much better,
But it is still fine. Don't pay attention to the nonsense in the media,
They will not tell you about our festivals here in Israel or about the
People that continue living, going out, meeting friends.
העסקים כאן בסדר. זה בהחלט יכול להיות טוב יותר, אבל זה עדיין בסדר. אל תשימו לב לשטויות בתקשורת, הם לא יספרו לכם על החגיגות שלנו כאן בישראל או על האנשים שממשיכים לחיות, לצאת ולפגוש חברים.
Yes, sometimes morale is down, so what? This is only because we
Are mourning the dead while they are celebrating spilled blood. And
This is the reason we will win after all.
נכון, לפעמים המורל נמוך, אז מה? זה רק בגלל שאנו מבכים את המתים בזמן שהם חוגגים על דם שנשפך. וזו הסיבה לכך שאנו ננצח למרות הכל.

Obama Hypocrisy and Abuses of Power
Obama suggested "the pay packages for executives at bailed-out firms violated Americans' standards of right and wrong." Obama claims he did not participate in the decision to limit executive salaries. But he supports government interference with private corporations who receive taxpayer funds.
This indicates hypocrisy by Obama and his supporters. If receiving taxpayer funds is the standard for government action to enforce right and wrong, why has the Obama administration refused to act to curb denial of access to basic rights to persons with disabilities? Local governments all receive US taxpayer funds. Like Cambridge, MA, host city of Harvard University and MIT local police and government officials refuse to enforce the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Here is one more example of how Obama services his friends and attacks his critics. Continued abuses of power will limit criticism of government abuses by misusing US taxpayer funds for political purposes. Sweet talking Obama and his PR flacks will spin the facts and deny what they do. They will proclaim that they do the opposite. They are very successful at fooling many people. It is how Obama got elected.

Prevent Swine Flu
Dr. Vinay Goyal is an MBBS,DRM,DNB (Intensivist and Thyroid
specialist) having clinical experience of over 20 years. He has worked
in institutions like Hinduja Hospital , Bombay Hospital , Saifee
Hospital , Tata Memorial etc.. Presently, he is heading our Nuclear
Medicine Department and Thyroid clinic at Riddhivinayak Cardiac and
Critical Centre, Malad (W).
The following message given by him, I feel makes a lot of sense and
is important for all to know
The only portals of entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is.
While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing on how
to stock N95 or Tamiflu):
1. Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).
2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face.
3. *Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don't trust salt).. *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.
4. Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water. *Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but *blowing the nose hard once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.*
5. *Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.
6. *Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm.

Gubmint and How Gubmint Works
Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the > middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night."
So they created a night watchman position and hired a
person for the job.
Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.
Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a Quality Control department and hired two
people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.
Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So They created the following positions, a time keeper, and a payroll officer, then
hired two people.
Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?"
So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.
Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one Year and we are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost."
So they laid off the night watchman.
NOW slowly, let it sink in.
Quietly, we go like sheep to slaughter.
Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment of > the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY..... during the Carter Administration?
Anybody?
Anything?
No?
Didn't think so!
Bottom line. We've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency...the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember!
Ready??
It was very simple...and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.
The Department of Energy was instituted on August 04, 1977, TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.
Hey, pretty efficient, huh???
AND NOW IT'S 2009 -- 32 YEARS LATER -- AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. THEY HAVE 16,000 FEDERAL
EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES; AND LOOK AT THE JOB THEY HAVE DONE! THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FORE HEAD AND SAY, "WHAT WAS I THINKING?"
Ah, yes -- good ole bureaucracy.
AND, NOW, WE ARE GOING TO TURN THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE, AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY OVER TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT?
HELLOOO! Anybody Home?

City of Manheim in Lancaster County installed 11 sidewalk ramps which did not comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The city must redo all of the ramps. This is a pattern nationally. One wonders if this is an intentional pattern to make work for construction companies and police details?
Cambridge Official Wants to Know About Plan E
Ken Reeves is the longest serving city councilor. After 18 years he remains clueless about legal requirements of Plan E government. Instead of learning and reading the laws (he is a Harvard College, and University of Michigan Law School graduate), he wants to spend other people's money to study Plan E.
"We are at a place where we need to know what the sphere is limited to and not limited to,” Reeves said. City Councilor and state Rep. Tim Toomey said, “That’s incumbent upon us to know what the city charter is,” he said. “It’s 101 in being elected.”
Contrary to conventional wisdom (misconception) city councilors have no concept of laws Constitutions or even their own rules.

Reeves wants to evaluate Cambridge's Plan E form of government
By Jillian Fennimore
Cambridge Chronicle
Oct 21, 2009 @ 12:25 PM
Ken Reeves is the longest serving city councilor. After 18 years he remains clueless about legal requirements of Plan E government. Instead of learning and reading the laws (he is a Harvard College, and University of Michigan Law School graduate), he wants to spend other people's money to study Plan E.
"We are at a place where we need to know what the sphere is limited to and not limited to,” Reeves said. City Councilor and state Rep. Tim Toomey said, “That’s incumbent upon us to know what the city charter is,” he said. “It’s 101 in being elected.”
Contrary to conventional wisdom (misconception) city councilors have no concept of laws Constitutions or even their own rules.

'They Tried to Steal an Election,' N.Y. Voter Fraud Case Heats Up
Thirty-eight forged or fraudulent ballots have been thrown out, according to records at the Rensselaer County Board of Elections in Troy, N.Y. Enough votes, an election official admits, to likely have tipped the November election to the Democrats.

If George W Bush was an idiot
If George W. Bush had been the first President to need a teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would you have laughed and said this is more proof of how inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes?
If George W. Bush had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take Laura Bush to a play in NYC, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had reduced your retirement plan's holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought this embarrassingly narcissistic and tacky?
If George W. Bush had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia , would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had visited Austria and made reference to the non-existent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a minor slip?
If George W. Bush had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, would you have winced in embarrassment?
If George W. Bush had mis-spelled the word "advice" would you have hammered him for it for years like Dan Quayle and potatoe as proof of what a dunce he is?
If George W. Bush had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?
If George W. Bush's administration had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11?
If George W. Bush had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence?
If George W. Bush had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved?
If George W Bush had proposed to double the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have approved?
If George W. Bush had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved?
So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 5 months -- so you'll have three years and seven months to come up with an answer.

How to Defend Against Character Assassination
"The question facing any public figure who has been the target of character assassination in the media is: Is it worth investing a large amount of time in a process that can make you worse off by spreading the very lie that you are suing to stop?"

Ziegler Offers $100 K for Debate
Ziegler accurately notes that his confrontation with David Keene was about conservatism, not Republicanism. Outside of New York few states have conservative parties or liberal parties in addition to Democrats and Republicans. It shows how superficial Olbermann and his Democratic guest are. In addition the guest said only 20 percent of Americans say they are Republicans. But a majority of Americans in all 50 states say they are conservatives.

Obama Exhibits Lack of Grace
"Obama's perpetual campaign against Bush is graceless, whiny and tin-eared."
[. . .]
"Obama complains of having to clean up what he charmingly calls 'somebody else's mess.'"
[. . .]
"Obama acts as if Bush were the former president of another country, or a disgraced leader ousted in a coup. No calumny is too much to heap on him,"
[. . .]
"he impugns his predecessor with classless regularity, and attributes the worst of motives -- pure partisanship and unrestrained greed -- to those who oppose him. Their assigned role is to get the hell out of his way."
[. . .]
"the White House inevitably exposes a president's character flaws: Nixon's corrosive paranoia, Clinton's self-destructive indiscipline, Bush's stubborn defensiveness. Obama is exhibiting an oddly self-pitying arrogance."

Palin Polls Make No Sense
Palin Polls Make No Sense
This essay makes sense only to poll takers. Without knowing the questions how can the results have any meaning? Bailey says, "Two polls released in the last several days suggest Palin might not be in good shape should she seek the GOP presidential nomination." That depends upon what being "in good shape" means. Palin said she was tired of personal attacks on her family. Having a respite may have improved her "shape."
Bailey says, "Palin’s strength has always been her appeal to the GOP base." Oh? And what about her genuineness? That is what many people admire about her. Towing the party line will alienate that base.
Suggesting "the big unknown is whether Palin can change what the public already thinks about her and regain ground" presupposes that Bailey knows what "the public" thinks. How does she know that? From polls?

Obama's Spin Doctor Attacks Fox News
One more example that all politics is local. Who is imitating who? When the Cambridge MA weekly newspaper published a series of stories criticizing City Councilor Ken Reeves for misspending taxpayer money he began saying that the Cambridge Chronicle is not a real newspaper. Other councilors joined him when they were targets of critical stories. When they liked what was published they quoted the newspaper. Now David Axelrod Obama's Senior Adviser (Rasputin) who as a PR flack spins facts for Obama "went further by calling on media outlets to join the administration in declaring that Fox is 'not a news organization.'"
"The White House stopped providing guests to 'Fox News Sunday' after host Chris Wallace fact-checked controversial assertions made by Tammy Duckworth, assistant secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs, in August.
Dunn said fact-checking an administration official was 'something I've never seen a Sunday show do.'
'She criticized "Fox News Sunday" last week for fact-checking -- fact-checking -- an administration official,' Wallace said Sunday. 'They didn't say that our fact-checking was wrong. They just said that we had dared to fact-check.'"

The "Bells" and Politics
John was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young layers (hens),called 'pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.
He kept records, and any rooster not performing
went into the soup pot and was replaced.
This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells
and attached them to his roosters.
Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance,
which rooster was performing.
Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report
by just listening to the bells.
John's favourite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen,
but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all!
When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, could run for cover.
To John's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.
John was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Renfrew County Fair and he became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result was the judges not only awarded old Butch the No Bell Piece Prize but they also awarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.
Clearly old Butch was a politician in the making.
Who else but a politician could figure out
how to win two of the most highly coveted awards
on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace
and screwing them when they weren't paying attention.
Vote carefully next year,
the bells are not always audible.

Cambridge Conservation Hearing on Magazine Beach
Cambridge Conservation Hearing on Magazine Beach
Monday October 19, 2009
Cambridge Conservation Commission’s hearing Monday, October 19, 2009 at 8:00 p.m., on the joint Cambridge-Department of Conservation and Recreation project. The hearing is at 344 Broadway, corner of Inman Street, in the fourth floor conference room.
Hundreds of us signed the 2008 petition to support the conservation of Magazine Beach and Captains Island as natural and historic green space—as untreated, multipurpose fields open to all. We supported Cambridge purchase of land for new sports fields away from the banks of the river, in underserved Cambridge neighborhoods; funding and proper maintenance for existing children and adult pools; restored access to the river for human activity and waterfowl of all kinds; and a natural history walk and passive information center on the history and ecology of the Charles River estuary.
Now the DCR is asking the ConCom for an extension of the ConCom's Order of Conditions to allow the work to continue.
The ConCom has repeatedly accepted the DCR’s lies about habitat at Magazine Beach and the DCR’s claims it can prevent the chemicals necessary to maintain the fields there from polluting the river. If the effects of climate change—including storms that overwhelm levees and swales—on human and wildlife habitat weren’t clear in 1999, or 2003, or 2006, they are now. It is time to put a stop to this project.
Please let the ConCom know you oppose allowing the project to continue. Please attend the hearing or, if that’s not possible, contact ConCom Director Jennifer Wright, at jwright (at) cambridgema.gov.
Finally, at the most recent City Council candidates’ forum focusing on the environment, a candidate familiar with our petition seems to have claimed there was no public opposition to the destruction at Magazine Beach, that it is “gone.” I would suggest that in this election year it’s also time to hold our elected officials, who could have stopped the project but did not, accountable; and to ask what the challengers will do.

Rio de Janeiro Violence Explodes

Common Sense Exams
"The Taxi and Limousine Commission [will] ban drivers from [using] a mobile communications device while a taxi is in operation." (Editorial, "The cab crackdown," New York Post, October 17, 2009) This is common sense for drivers and the TLC. Distracted driving is a menace to public safety. Drivers should know that but some don't. But radio dispatched taxis use their radios to respond to calls. Police drive when they respond to emergency communications. Laws will not stop simpletons from harming others. Taxi drivers and police should be examined for common sense.

Spineless Defense of Free Speech
Rush Limbaugh gives his perspective on spineless journalists. After David Checketts asked him to join a group to purchase the St. Louis Rams, Checketts refused to stand up and defend Rush Limbaugh's First Amendment Rights. That pattern is pervasive even in Cambridge MA host city of Harvard and MIT where politicians and university officials silence unpopular speech. The current editors of the Cambridge weekly newspaper show no spine and an inability to stand up for protected speech.
Academics with PhDs. and lawyers lead neighborhood associations in this elitist enclave. They deny access to citizens to participate in their forums adhering to conformist liberal Democratic policies. Leftist abuses of law are ignored by these same conformist spineless leaders. If the best and the brightest (Ahem!) are censoring protected legal speech and using character assassination to silence citizen speech, it is not surprising that US Congresswomen, football fans, players union officials, and sports writers do the same to a wealthy, wildly successful and politically connected broadcaster.

The Race Card, Football and Me
My critics would have you believe no conservative meets NFL 'standards.'
By RUSH LIMBAUGH
Rush Limbaugh gives his perspective on spineless journalists. After David Checketts asked him to join a group to purchase the St. Louis Rams, Checketts refused to stand up and defend Rush Limbaugh's First Amendment Rights. That pattern is pervasive even in Cambridge MA host city of Harvard and MIT where politicians and university officials silence unpopular speech. The current editors of the Cambridge weekly newspaper show no spine and an inability to stand up for protected speech.

With lively young men and young women Chicago sounds like the perfect city for the Olympics. Murderous and pregnant teens, what more could Olympian athletes want. Shame that the committee let a crisis go to waste.

Sharpton Continues to Bash Limbaugh
"Sharpton added in a telephone interview that major sports leagues shouldn't welcome owners who are 'divisive and incendiary.'" That would rule out Sharpton as an owner.

Democrats Are Not Military Experts
"It's always something with the Muslims. You either have mostly sane people governed by a crazy dictator -- Iraq, Iran and Syria (also California and Michigan) -- or a crazy people governed by relatively sane leaders -- Pakistan and Afghanistan, post-U.S. invasion (also Vermont and Minnesota). There are also insane people ruled by insane leaders (but enough about the House Democratic Caucus). Sane people with sane rulers has not been fully tried yet."

Criminal Abuse of Elderly
Taking care of elderly and persons with disabilities is not a sexy job. It is quiet stressful. In addition there are no real advocates for these two forgotten groups who have no political action committees. Consequently they get little attention. Those who provide goods and services are often greedy exploitive predators. The state bussed prison inmates on work release to do overnight duty at mental hospitals resulting in rapes and thefts. Elderly and disabled citizens suffer abuse due to neglect of journalists and politicians, who want rewards for their attention.
