Patrick Fitzgerald FBI Director?, More Obama control of Justice Dept, John Kass Naive?
“Why did the Illinois Senate Health & Human Services Committee, with Obama as chairman, create and push Bill 1332, “Illinois Health Facilities Planning Act,” early in 2003, which reduced the number of members on the Board from 15 to 9, just prior to rigging by Tony Rezko and Rod Blagojevich?”…Citizen Wells
“Why did Patrick Fitzgerald and the US Justice Department prosecute Tony Rezko first and wait until after the 2008 election to arrest Rod Blagojevich?”…Citizen Wells
From John Kass and the Chicago Tribune March 17, 2011.
“And both he and Patti know the names of all the prosecutors and FBI agents, including U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald.
“My point is, it’s a selective prosecution,” Patti told the audience.”
“And now Fitzgerald might be making a move, to Washington. He’s on the short list to replace Robert Muller as director of the FBI.
Whether he gets the job or not is something else again. I think Fitzgerald would like the post. Friends of his have been talking about it for years. He’s obviously qualified, and he has hunted crooked Democrats and crooked Republicans with equal gusto.
But would the Chicago Way White House — with mayoral brother Billy Daley as chief of staff to the president — want an uncontrollable Fitzgerald running the FBI for the next 10 years?
Who knows? Billy Daley is approving the short list being leaked out to the media, with Fitz’s name on it.”
“”It would be Chicago’s loss if Patrick Fitzgerald became director of the FBI,” the former senator said. “All sorts of characters in Chicago would be delighted if Patrick were promoted out of town. As FBI director, his responsibilities would be focused on a broad spectrum and he wouldn’t have time to focus just on Chicago.””

John Kass has been one of the more outspoken critics of Blagojevich and Obama. However, he has not been paying close enough attention or has been held back by the Tribune. As you will see in my upcoming first argument against Patrick Fitzgerald and the Justice Dept., Fitzgerald was indeed aggressive in prosecuting Republicans, but slow as molasses in going after Blagojevich while all the time protecting Obama. Will Fitzgerald become director of the FBI and thus add another layer of control in the Justice Dept. for Obama?

Aussie,
It really disappoints that you won’t be honest and simply say that you were wrong when you made the EXACT STATEMENTS posted above. All one has to do to see that you are being dishonest when you say you were misquoted is to click on the links to your original posts.
Your statements that “The reactor is not harmed” “The reactor is quite safe” ” “My understanding is that the radiation levels are still very low” are obviously FALSE.
At this point it is obvious that your disinformation is willfully dishonest and you have lost all credibility.
We need to focus on using the Grand Jury process to legally remove bo. No matter who bo appoints traditionally the FBI Director stays after the POTUS is gone, unlike the AG.

we see by the failed 2010 elections, none of the politicians are even willing to take the basic steps necessary to clean up corruption in Washington because the politicians profit from the corruption in DC.
The mandate of We the People could not have been clearer. We have demanded that BHO’s background be thoroughly investigated.Clearly no political solution by our politicians will be forthcoming from this congress.
It is time for We the People to use the power of the 4th Branch of Government and issue State Grand Jury Indictments of all the politicians who are obstructing justice. Then, and only then, will the politicians take the demands of We the People seriously.

Reporters in Japan raised the notion Friday of sealing the reactors and fuel rods in concrete as an emergency measure. But officials with Japan’s nuclear safety agency and the plant’s operator did not embrace the idea.
“We believe it is not a realistic option,” said Hidehiko Nishiyama of the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency. And Teruaki Kobayashi, a manager at the Tokyo Electric Power Co., said the utility would not rule out entombing the reactors but thinks the probability is low.
It appears that the Government and Tepco don’t know what to do about the damaged reactors.

Officials admit they may have to bury reactors under concrete – as happened at Chernobyl
Engineers are trying to get the coolant pumping systems knocked out by the tsunami working again after laying a new power line from the main grid.
And they today admitted that burying reactors under sand and concrete – the solution adopted in Chernobyl – may be the only option to stop a catastrophic radiation release.
I just read where New Jersey shut down the” Barack Hussain Obama Elementary School” in that state. The reason given was fiscal mismanagement and non-achievement….The school opened in early 2010. most people remember it because they had brainwashed the kids and put out a Utube video where the kids were mumbling something like…”um, um um, um yes he can”.
Well now they can mumble something like, “um,um,um, um, no he can’t”. Students of that school now will be placed into other schools that can pass the test and have someone in charge who can count money!
I wonder if we could get the name of the person who closed this fiscal mismanaged school! I would like to recommend him/ or her for a medal! Perhaps the “Medal of Freedom”….presented by…you guessed it……the boy wonder himself!
BHO is so brave…with the whole damn world crumbling around us…Egypt in turmoil, Lybia in civil war, Japan in total ruins, Treasury Secretary saying we need a world currency that will take the dollars place, and a hundred other brush fires…what does the bummer do?
What he normally does when under fire!!!! He’s on another five vacation with Muchelllll in South America this time…Down hobnobing with his leftest friends and he want’s to see the big “Jesus” in Brizil. Now I ask you, don’t you go to bed every night feeling that he is protecting our country to the best of his abilities…?

http://www.gregpalast.com/no-bs-info-on-japan-nuclearobama-invites-tokyo-electric-to-build-us-nukes-with-taxpayer-funds/
I don’t know the law in Japan, so I can’t tell you if Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) can plead insanity to the homicides about to happen.
But what will Obama plead? The Administration, just months ago, asked Congress to provide a $4 billion loan guarantee for two new nuclear reactors to be built and operated on the Gulf Coast of Texas — by Tokyo Electric Power and local partners. As if the Gulf hasn’t suffered enough.
Reduced to it’s most simple terms, we have reached the final predicament.

Neil Abercormbie admitted to the press that he was told, by his own staff investigators, that all they could find was a hand written notation somewhere in the State Archives. Now there is talk in Hawaii that Birth Records may now be forged for a future release.”

Your comments about the reactors and all the surrounding events have ‘evolved’ from just plain wrong, to mean, the Obama supporting, to now they are becoming subhuman.
The level of misinformation, fearmongering, and purposefully aiding and abetting the destruction the useful and necessary Nuclear Energy infrastructure – and it’s expansion – are just plain criminal. “Never let a crisis go to waste”.

Hi Sue,
Why don’t you ask Leo why he was *really* arrested?
FOS,
The way I see it is either you ignore the elephant in the room and scroll through all his posts, or you confront him and call him out on his bogus statements. If you choose the first, as Aussie has done, it results in out right harassment (as you can easily observe). If you choose the latter, you are repeatedly called an obot or worse, and reminded of Leo’s (BARF ALERT) superior intelligence.
Either way, the situation is not relieved.
Leo,
I heard you were arrested. Why?
kittycat77 | March 18, 2011 at 5:12 pm |
If you notice I have been ignoring him, and have watched as he has become more shrill, as well as being extremely dishonest in the reporting of the situation.
The latest is the “potential homicides” for which TEPCO is supposed to be guilty… that is just nonsense.
I have provided links that lead people to sane blogs, and where the comment fields are packed with lots of information.
The issues being raised by the anti-nuclear lobby are a joke. Many of the alleged experts cited are nothing of the sort – they are activists and they know nothing about the industry, and their intention has been to mislead the public.
I am a member of that public. Rather than listen to the panic merchant anti-nuclear activists I have sought to find the truth. The people who are in the industry know more about interpreting the data than these activists!!
Other than that… the shrillness that you are seeing does nothing for the credibility of the poster…. 🙂

It is only harassment if I let it be harassment.
On the other hand it can be amusing to watch the lengths to which a person will go to use scaremongering tactics. It is somewhat amusing that there are multiple posts on the same thing, posted when I am in bed asleep!!
It is called the time zone, stupid…. those posts are being done when I am not even around… kinda pathetic, really.
I choose to post links that contain detailed analysis from the real experts, not from the rumour mongers and the hype-specialists, including reports from the LSM.. which are indeed over the top with the hype.
Getting information is very difficult. The regurgitation of information that is based upon the near-hysteria of the anti-nuclear lobby is unhelpful, especially to those of us who are nothing more than the public.
Fukushima is not Chernobyl. It is no greater than Three Mile Island.

The company was short of cash, and Gaddafi, who was piling up petrodollars, was not then generally viewed as a bankroller of terrorists. Fiat welcomed Libya’s investment of some $400 million…As Fiat has prospered, the value of Libya’s stock in the company has multiplied to an estimated $2.5 billion.”

Obama – Qaddafi Coincidence?

Whose interest was President Obama serving when on March 30 he ordered Chrysler to either conclude a merger with Italian automaker Fiat within 30 days or lose federal bailout funds? That untimely announcement placed Chrysler in the untenable position of accepting whatever Fiat offered, literally cutting the legs out from under the struggling American carmaker’s negotiating platform. Some financial analysts had already determined that what Fiat was offering was a very bad deal for Chrysler. “The steal of the century,” Forbes columnist Jerry Flint wrote of the deal back in January, “Fiat gets Chrysler for next to no money, and American taxpayers must throw in $7 billion to make it happen.” By most accounts, Chrysler was in real trouble, but by announcing to the world that Chrysler had no other alternatives Obama effectively told Fiat that Chrysler would accept whatever they offered, eliminating Chrysler’s ability to cut a better deal.

You know that an American administration has proven useless and ineffective for supporting liberty and freedom in oppressed countries when even France… France… takes the lead in recognizing a struggling, independent liberty movement. Such is the case in Libya where French President Nicolas Sarkozy has recognized and supported the Libyan rebels struggling to over throw Libyan dictator Gaddhafi.
For his part, President Obama, the man that is supposed to be fulfilling the role of the “leader of the free world” is attending school bullying pressers and secretly supporting fleebagging Democrats in Wisconsin while practically turning a blind eye to the Libyan rebels fighting for their lives.

Hi Aussie,
Have been hearing from other CW bloggers via e-mail asking if my comments were downloading on the previous, very long threads; looks as if we were all having trouble with threads that large!
The MIT article is a good, objective assessment of the situation (I used to work at MIT, but not in the NSE department; they were a bit over my head!). Their info seems to be spot on from what I’m reading in the other *credible* news sites.
NEI has also updated, and their info seems to mesh with MIT’s:
http://nei.cachefly.net/newsandevents/information-on-the-japanese-earthquake-and-reactors-in-that-region/
I was off today (needed it!) and my boss called this morning to let me know that the rating was indeed raised to a ‘5.’ Hoping they can get a handle on this and won’t have to use the ‘Chernobly method;’ that would effectively kill the reactors forever and create a dead zone that would be unusable for many lifetimes to come.
If they can get the reactors cool enough and the radiation levels low enough, they can get in there and see exactly what they’re dealing with. With fluctuating rad levels, it’s much too dangerous to mount an ‘exploratory mission’ into the containment structures. Hoping that can be done soon.
Will be making a few donations over the weekend to help the folks of Japan. It’s never enough, but it’s something…..

With little more than the skills of a community organizer when he was elected president, Mr. Obama’s dithering on Libya as the rebels face defeat, is turning off many, not the least his Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
In a recent interview almost at the end of a mid-east mission, Clinton said she would not serve a second term, even if Obama wins in 2012.

Sue, thanks for dropping by!!! It is appreciated.
Yes, agreed, there was an upgrade to Three Mile Island type event. Some have noted that this is retrospective (I hope so!!)
I still find that the information from Professor Barry Brook has been reliable and easy for me to at least get the gist of what is happening. The other experts in the field have been very helpful as well.
Jack, who runs nuclear fissionary has helped to break it all down into tiny bites, and one of his commenters on the Q & A thread has been a big help.
What I have learned is that Arne Gunderson has no credibility in the nuclear industry and reading through the thread helps to explain why that is the case.
I remain hopeful that the Japanese workers will manage to get things under control. I am full of admiration for the volunteers who have been working stoically through the past week. Their situation has not been good, but they have kept on working for solutions.
Other than that, I have learned that because the three reactors shut down when the earthquake hit, as expected, that there is less danger of a certain type of reaction. This does not negate any of the other dangers that are present. Also, that the fire in reactor 4 was caused by an oil leak in a fuel pump, and not the rods in the spent fuel rod pool. (or so it seems).

Is President Obama showing a lack of leadership during a time of multiple crises in March 2011?
With the Middle East in turmoil, one of the largest natural disasters in Japan’s history compounded with a possible nuclear meltdown, Congress unable to agree on a budget, sky-high gas prices and high unemployment, Obama is focused on equal rights and “bullying” in his two recent radio addresses, golfing and filling out his March Madness brackets.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1366975/Japan-nuclear-crisis-Libya-civil-war-President-Barack-Obama-Rio-Janeiro.html?ito=feeds-newsxml
Nuclear crisis in Japan, a civil war in Libya and where is the President? Heading for Rio de Janeiro
Where is the President?’ former presidential speechwriter John Podhoretz wrote in the New York Post.
‘The world is beset. Moammar Khadafy is moving relentlessly to crush the Libyan revolt that once promised the overthrow of one of the world’s most despicable regimes. So where is the President?
‘Japan may be on the verge of a disaster that dwarfs any we have yet seen. A self-governing nation like the United States needs its leader to take full measure of his position at times of crises when the path forward is no longer clear.
This is not a time for leadership; this is the time for leadership. So where is Barack Obama?’ he added.
Rush Limbaugh also fumed on his syndicated radio show: ‘We got the world on fire. We got Libya and the Middle East on fire and the guy’s out playing golf,” he said, referring to the round Mr Obama played on Sunday.
http://blackchristiannews.com/news/2011/03/showing-a-woeful-lack-of-leadership-is-president-obama-overwhelmed-is-he-hiding-from-reality-or-is-h.html
Showing a Woeful Lack of Leadership, Is President Obama Overwhelmed? Is He Hiding from Reality? Or Is He Just Concerned About Himself as His Detractors Are Saying?
But Obama’s critics have a different take. They say he’s exhibiting a failure of leadership on a whole range of matters, symbolic and substantive, ranging from his lukewarm support for a Libyan no-fly zone to his willingness to let others, especially Republicans, take the lead on entitlement reform.
A compendium of clips sent to reporters by the Republican National Committee on Tuesday was headlined: “Hiding from Reality: Obama’s noticeable lack of leadership illustrates a president looking out for himself above all others.”
And Obama may have given opponents another talking point by following through, despite the alarming news from overseas, on a promise to appear in a nine-minute ESPN segment to share his NCAA basketball tournament picks. (Video: Obama completes his NCAA bracket)
“Most people when it comes to Obama, you know what they’re anticipating? His NCAA brackets,” Rush Limbaugh fumed on his syndicated radio show Tuesday. “Every year at this time people wonder what the president’s brackets are going to be, who he’s gonna pick?
“We got the world on fire. We got Libya and the Middle East on fire and the guy’s out playing golf,” he added, referring to the round Obama played Saturday. (See: White House responds to bracket gripes)
Republicans say one compelling reason for Obama to stay home, is to work on an elusive long-term budget deal – with a confrontation looming on April 8 when the just-completed three-week stopgap funding measure expires.
what seems to be the latest from Japan:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/19/us-japan-quake-idUSTRE72A0SS20110319?feedType=RSS&feedName=worldNews&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FworldNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+International%29
We can only hope that this is successful. The linking up of the power cable, followed by cranking up the first of the reactors and that being successful will go a long way in bringing things under better control.

Considering his stance on nuclear weapons, the so called pro nuclear energy stance seems extremely inconsistent. Yes, I agree, the pos is lying about where he stands.
There needs to be a balance: coal, gas, and water as well as some nuclear electric plants. Forget the wind farms, as they are next to useless and the solar panels are a mixed blessing (work well in Florida and California but not so much in other locations).
So once again he is being caught out in the lie.

Hi Aussie,
🙂 I drop by when my antique system will load the page!
Yes, the upgrade was rumored (or rumoured, in the proper vernacular) but was confirmed today. It would behoove all of us to wait for official confirmation of events rather than scare the daylights out of everyone with wild rumo(u)rs and speculation; there’s enough trash floating around out there these days.
Prof. Brook is right on the money; that’s one source I go to for the real story without the hype. We must, however, always be careful of the ‘experts’ we choose to trust as some have hidden agendas that are not apparent at first glance. One so-called ‘expert’ was discovered to be a member of the CFR thus, his expertise was a tad slanted (and that’s an understatement!).
The ‘Fukushima 50’….the workers who are trading shifts at the reactor complex are the bravest people I’ve ever seen. They know the ‘dose’ of radiation they’ve been getting, and also know that this duty is tantamount to a suicide mission. I can’t think of too many folks who would volunteer for something like this. God bless them and watch over them!
And yes, the shutdown of the reactors doesn’t necessarily mean that the fuel rods stop heating. It takes a very long time for that fuel to cool. At our local nuclear power plant, ‘going offline’ for testing and repairs represents approximately 3 weeks to a month to complete the process and everything is done very slowly and precisely; it has to be! To shut down and power down lessens the liklihood of a catastrophic event, so that was a wise decision. After that, it was dealing with the other calamities that were present at that power plant.
The fires, as we know, were mostly caused by the explosion of hydrogen, but I’m not aware of the fuel pump. The rods themselves would heat to approximately 3,000 degrees Celsius (if I remember correctly) and not ‘explode’ unless there was something else exploding in their general vicinity; they would melt at those temperatures. I will check into the fuel pump-thanks for the info!

Tokyo Electric to Build US Nuclear Plants: The No BS Info on Japan’s Disastrous Nuclear Operators
Monday 14 March 2011
by: Greg Palast, t r u t h o u t | News Analysis
Texas nuclear plants planned by Tokyo Electric. (Image: NINA)
I need to speak to you, not as a reporter, but in my former capacity as lead investigator in several government nuclear plant fraud and racketeering investigations.
I don’t know the law in Japan, so I can’t tell you if Tokyo Electric Power Co (TEPCO) can plead insanity to the homicides about to happen.
But what will Obama plead? The administration, just months ago, asked Congress to provide a $4 billion loan guarantee for two new nuclear reactors to be built and operated on the Gulf Coast of Texas – by TEPCO and local partners. As if the Gulf hasn’t suffered enough. Here are the facts about TEPCO and the industry you haven’t heard on CNN:
The failure of emergency systems at Japan’s nuclear plants comes as no surprise to those of us who have worked in the field.
Nuclear plants the world over must be certified for what is called “SQ” or “Seismic Qualification.” That is, the owners swear that all components are designed for the maximum conceivable shaking event, be it from an earthquake or an exploding Christmas card from al-Qaeda.
The most inexpensive way to meet your SQ is to lie. The industry does it all the time. The government team I worked with caught them once, in 1988, at the Shoreham plant in New York. Correcting the SQ problem at Shoreham would have cost a cool billion, so engineers were told to change the tests from “failed” to “passed.”
The company that put in the false safety report? Stone & Webster, now the nuclear unit of Shaw Construction, which will work with TEPCO to build the Texas plant. Lord help us.
There’s more.
Last night, I heard CNN reporters repeat the official line that the tsunami disabled the pumps needed to cool the reactors, implying that water unexpectedly got into the diesel generators that run the pumps.
These safety backup systems are the “EDGs” in nuke-speak: Emergency Diesel Generators. That they didn’t work in an emergency is like a fire department telling us they couldn’t save a building because “it was on fire.”
What dim bulbs designed this system? One of the reactors dancing with death at Fukushima Station 1 was built by Toshiba. Toshiba was also an architect of the emergency diesel system.
Now be afraid. Obama’s $4 billion bailout in the making is called the South Texas Project. It’s been sold as a red-white-and-blue way to make power domestically with a reactor from Westinghouse, a great American brand. However, the reactor will be made substantially in Japan by the company that bought the US brand name, Westinghouse – Toshiba.
TEPCO and Toshiba don’t know what my son learned in eighth grade science class: tsunamis follow Pacific Rim earthquakes. So, these companies are real stupid, eh? Maybe. More likely is that the diesels and related systems wouldn’t have worked on a fine, dry afternoon.
Back in the day, when we checked the emergency backup diesels in America, a mind-blowing number flunked. At the New York nuclear plant, for example, the builders swore under oath that their three diesel engines were ready for an emergency. They’d been tested. The tests were faked; the diesels run for just a short time at low speed. When the diesels were put through a real test under emergency-like conditions, the crankshaft on the first one snapped in about an hour, then the second and third. We nicknamed the diesels, “Snap, Crackle and Pop.”
So, if we turned to America’s own nuclear contractors, would we be safe? Well, two of the melting Japanese reactors, including the one whose building blew sky high, were built by General Electric of the Good Old US of A.
After Texas, you’re next. The Obama administration is planning a total of $56 billion in loans for nuclear reactors all over America.
Indeed, the fact that residents near the Japanese nuclear plants were not issued iodine pills to keep at the ready shows TEPCO doesn’t care who lives and who dies, whether in Japan or the USA. The carcinogenic isotopes that are released at Fukushima are already floating to Seattle with effects we simply cannot measure.
Heaven help us. Because Obama won’t.
here is another miracle story in Japan:

“Let me be clear, these terms are not negotiable … If Gaddafi does not comply … the resolution will be enforced through military action.”
Regardless of the Security Councils resolution it is said that Gaddafi troops are still advancing towards the rebel stronghold at Benghazi . Residents in rebel held Misrata said they faced heavy bombardment on Friday

what a load of melodramatic twaddle.
The real industry experts actually agree that the dangers are within the zone that was evacuated.
The Japanese government has stocks of the idodide pills if they are needed. The truth is that the radiation levels have not been sufficient to cause harm to human health.
I believe the Libyan Freedom Fighters, not anything that comes from the lying lips of Gadhaffi:

The UN decision for a no-fly zone should have been made weeks ago, and all of the prevarication has meant that people in Tripoli have been “disappeared”.
This is not new for Gadhaffi, and the UN should have put an early stop to the slaughter. It does not involve troops on the ground (yet) but there should have been a response when it was clear that the dictator was using mercenaries to do the dirty work.

http://blog.heritage.org/?p=55014
In reality the U.N. resolution is nothing more than a “feel-good” palliative measure that is not likely to decisively affect the fighting on the ground in Libya. As Secretary of Defense Robert Gates testified last week: “Let’s just call a spade a spade. A no-fly zone begins with an attack on Libya to destroy the air defenses. That’s the way you do a no-fly zone. And then you can fly planes around the country and not worry about our guys being shot down. But that’s the way it starts.” But is that what the Obama Administration is planning? Even if the Administration has a plan on Libya, it certainly has not communicated it to the American people. Here are just some of the fundamental questions the Administration has failed to answer as our military stands on the brink of a new and costly commitment:

First of all, why does it matter? Second of all, some of those statements were made in the early days of the reactor’s malfunctioning. Thirdly, she was technically correct in that the actual earthquake did minimal damage to the reactors and it was the tsunami wave the took out the back up generators. Fourth, Aussie has not been minimizing the problems with the reactors. She has been trying to follow it, along with SueK, in a deeper and more technical fashion than you have been trying to relay.
Why don’t you get off of her back? She doesn’t owe you any explanations. Aussie is one of us and you are harassing her for no good reason except to build yourself up by breaking her down. It’s senseless. Aussie has clearly said, on multiple occasions, that this is a dire situation that could spiral out of control. That being said, she has been trying to put a hopeful spin on the fact that things can be done to prevent that from occurring. I’m not saying that damage to the environment and people’s health has not occurred, but the worst case scenario (that you have told us has already happened) still can be avoided with some luck and ingenuity.
I am, on a daily basis, becoming more and more disappointed at your behavior. It really is getting out of control. Why don’t you let the smart people reading this blog make their own minds up as to whom to put their confidence in on matters of importance…..and whom not to?
Sorry FS. But you are smarter than degrading yourself into this hyper obsessive and meaningless hairsplitting on these issues about who is right or wrong.

What is most ironic about the Brazil protests is that the PSTU is a hard core socialist party in Brazil. While anti-Obama protests in the US consider Obama a socialist, the socialists in Brazil consider him a yankee capitalist, the bane of the Latin American left.
PSTU said on its website that protests will also take place in São Paulo and Belo Horizonte cities around 19:00 local time. More were planned for Saturday morning in the nation’s capital, Brasilia, and a final protest was being organized by PSTU adherents for Sunday morning, the day of Obama’s speech.

By the way, I am definitely not an Obot. You say that only because you know that it gets under my skin and you are an arse hole. You enjoy battling, harassing, kicking people in the nuts and then blaming it on the other guy.

No worries. Lots of information to sift through, Aussie; it does get cumbersome and contradictory, at times.
Yes, we stick with our trusted and accurate sources and not the fearmonger we’ve seen a lot of here lately.
The latest from NEI:
“A World Health Organization spokesman said that radiation levels outside the 20-kilometer (12-mile) evacuation zone around the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan are not harmful for human health. He said the WHO finds no public health reason to avoid travel to unaffected areas in Japan or to recommend that foreign nationals leave the country. He also said there is no risk that exported Japanese foods are contaminated with radiation.
The Japanese government issued an advisory on Tuesday for people to evacuate from a 12-mile zone around the plant, and also told people living within an 18-mile radius to stay indoors. Radiation levels at the plant boundary have been declining in the last day or so.”
******************
Also, RadNet (the EPA’s monitoring system we have on the roof at work) has detected NO radiation levels of concern in the western part of the U.S. One monitor at Sacramento, CA did pick up a miniscule amount of Xenon-133. Other than that, nothing else has been detected.
Good news, for a change :).
bo the MISCREANT CON MAN STEALS lines from President Bush.
http://nation.foxnews.com/george-w-bush/2011/03/18/obama-copies-bush-speech#ixzz1H0ywGtw1
Obama closed Friday’s remarks by saying, “I’ve taken this decision with the confidence that action is necessary, and that we will not be acting alone. Our goal is focused. Our cause is just. And our coalition is strong.” Nearly a decade earlier, when President George W. Bush announced that U.S. forces were launching military strikes in Afghanistan, Bush said: “To all the men and women in our military … I say this: Your mission is defined. Your objectives are clear. Your goal is just.” Bush used similar wording in other remarks at the time.
Also on Friday, Obama said, “The United States did not seek this outcome. Our decisions have been driven by Qaddafi’s refusal to respect the rights of his people and the potential for mass murder of innocent civilians.”
On Oct. 7, 2001, Bush said of operations in Afghanistan, “We did not ask for this mission, but we will fulfill it. … We defend not only our precious freedoms, but also the freedom of people everywhere to live and raise their children free from fear.”

Hi Paxson,

My question from the previous thread was not answered. I asked if he was ’employed’ here as that’s what I suspect.
Also, Sue Q’s question (posed several times) as to why he was REALLY arrested was not answered, either.
I suppose you’d call it ‘selective reading’ and dodging the questions. Not worth my time.

SueK | March 18, 2011 at 11:03 pm |
SueK, I don’t want to be adversarial with FS. You can see the circular thought patterns and obsessive compulsive behavior. There is also a tremendous need to be recognized for being right and a less than stellar memory on things that he is wrong about. FS has always been harsh, in your face, a trouble maker and sancimonious but he has obviously gone downhill of late. I tried to prop him up with his battles with Carlyle, only because I knew that his behavior wouldn’t change and I thought that Carlyle could figure that out.
It’s only been lately that I have been calling FS out. This is because, in his mind, he is the ONLY non-obot here. Think about it…he’s called us ALL obots. Even though we have all been conversing for over two years. The wierdest thing about it is where he picks and chooses to draw the lines over his battles. They generally are over points of minutia.
Whatever the case, FS could be a positive force. He’s a smart guy. He’s one of us in our battle against the lords of darkness, but he doesn’t like any of us. That is sad. I respect CW tremendously, but one would think that he would just take him aside and quit using that term obot against us. FS only uses it to get under our skin and he is like the Little Boy Who Cried Wolf.
That being said, we should all just ignore him and not address him any longer at all. In the short run, he will lash out and start posting a ridiculous amount of repeat links etc. But maybe he will come around and see what a jackarse that he has been for no good reason.
Thanks to you and Aussie for your technical contributions. The rational person can see that neither of you have minimized in any way the potential dangers that these reactors can have on our ecology and population in Japan.
Kyodo has withdrawn the story about the man pulled out of the rubble:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/19/us-japan-survivor-idUSTRE72I0AC20110319?feedType=RSS&feedName=worldNews&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FworldNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+International%29
The real story in Japan is not the Fukushima reactors, but the humanitarian story regarding 390,000 people who are at this moment homeless, and are without the basic necessities of life.
The fight to restore power to the reactors continues to play out, however, the non-story there has overshadowed the plight of the 390,000 people.
More than 10,000 are still missing as a result of the tsunami. I get the feeling that the number of missing is a lot bigger than 10,000. More than 6000 are dead. That figure is peanuts compared to the figure for those who died as a consequence of the earthquake and tsunami in Aceh province not so many years ago.
From the Australian point of view, there are 10 people who are missing. Actually this is not so bad because the Dept of Foreign Affairs started with a much higher figure and now there are only 10 people who need to be contacted.
Whilst there remains the potential for a catastrophe with the nuclear reactors, the radiation levels have continued to drop, at least that was the last I noticed via the news reports. It remains a race against time… but it is not Chernobyl repeat in the making. For starters it is a different type of reactor and secondly the reactors had shut down at the moment the earthquake hit. The real damage occurred because the diesal generators were knocked out by the tsunami. The earthquake and the tsunami are seen as separate events.
Initially, there was no real damage to the reactors, until the explosions of hydrogen took place. The advice given about the damage to the first reactor where there was an explosion was that there was damage to the outer wall of the reactor, but not to the metal housing of the reactor. Then there was a second explosion, a third explosion and a fire in the 4th reactor. Each are separate events. The one that was of most concern was the one where the rods were exposed for something like 140 minutes.
Since that early advice, there has been further updates indicating that there was damage to the core inside those three reactors. There had been a partial meltdown, but according to my sources there has not been any pooling of molten mass. The partial melt-down does not mean that there will be a full melt-down.
If the current measures are unsuccessful then the worst case alternative of sand and concrete to entomb the reactors is being considered. I have provided links to sites from nuclear engineers where they go into detail about why the concrete entombing is not the best option.
At this point we can only pray that the ongoing efforts are successful and that the radiation remains minimal.

============================
Thank you. Only a psychotic dweeb (i.e. the MSM) would focus on the reactors.
Our biggest fear going into this was that the lunatic left and the greenpeace goons would seize on this as a rational for thwarting important energy initiatives here in the US. But even for these serious azzholes we figured they would have at least the modicum of decency to wait until the humanitarian crisis was at least mostly over.
It seriously takes a subhuman to wallow in this while the crisis is underway. We do not share Paxson’s optimism. Carlyle was only half right. Carlyle seemed to think FS was just a bad apple or “off his meds”. But the new round of belligerence is despicable to the point of being evil.
FS is not a postive influence to our cause in any way. He has to go.
PS – Paxon is wrong about another thing also. FS is not smart. He is very dumb and has a complex over it. That was first demonstrated during the Gulf Oil Disaster and now with the Reactor business. Also, please remember the positive and negative liberty discussion (documented fully on this blog). He got this totally jacked up and back asswards. And this is supposedly in his own field of ‘expertise’.

Aussie | March 18, 2011 at 11:21 pm |
Great post, Aussie…thanks!
I know the design of my ‘local’ reactor; it it a G.E. Mark 1, the same as the Fukushima reactors. The casings that surrounds the core is an incredible combination of very strong material, i.e., concrete, steel, and a variety of impenetrable materials and it would take a helluva lot of damage to actually get to and destroy the core components.
The Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station in Plymouth, MA (site of the Mayflower landing) was designed to withstand the impact of a 747 smashing into it, so when I look at Fukushima yes, there is damage but not enough to obliterate those reactors and cause a ‘China Syndrome.’
Let’s just hope that everything will come together for the Japanese people; they’ve suffered enough already.
G’night!

You do not have the credibility or high moral ground to even walk on the same ground as Aussie, let alone critique anything she does. Just STFU!
FOS. FS is obviously educated. He’s not like JS was in being completely uneducated and slovenly. FS just has a complex about being right. Smart people can be wrong sometimes, it’s how a person handles it that makes the difference. The incident with Mario shed a tremendous amount of light on certain behavioural deficiencies in his personality and thought process. I think that he enjoys being adversarial with people in matters of minutia that he lets cascade in his mind into bigger issues. Ultimately, I hate conflict with people whom I am trying to align myself with to solve problems. FS enjoys getting on other people’s nerves. In fact I think that he thrives on it.
That being said, I’ve said my piece. I need to take a shower now because I feel dirty even addressing this garbage with all of the depressing things happening in our world right now. I hope that FS will wise up, I know that he won’t, but I can live with not addressing him any more. I don’t think that anybody should any more. It’s a recipe for self mutilation.

Yes, SueK and my original post was based upon the information that was available prior to the first explosion, then after the first explosion.
I have not taken back that comment because it was correct at the time, and it remains correct for one reactor.
The other reason I am not taking back my initial comments is that the situation was very fluid. My original response was to daVerg who was wanting to run to the hills, when in fact there was no need at that point in time to panic (especially not in the USA) because it was clear that there were differences between the Chernobyl scenario, this one, and even Three Mile Island. It is now clear that this is a Three Mile Island type incident.
There are no massive plumes of radiation, especially of the type that is harmful to humans, although there has been radiation released.
What is obvious is that there are people getting the information wrong, and they are making statements that are incorrect or at least not backed up by facts – Dr. Greg J was wrong in the statement that he made about the holding pool at the 4th reactor being empty.
This does not take away from the urgency of the situation, especially for the Japanese who live close to the Fukushima reactors. There is no nuclear induced blizzard either – it is winter in Japan, and normal weather.
Aussie. There really was no need to explain. Your analysis has been straight forward the entire time. This has been a major distraction to the suffering of the Japanese people. You are a good person.
Paxson | March 19, 2011 at 12:56 am |
Paxson, some things need to be stated, especially when I see stupid statements about a nuclear blizzard when it was very far from the truth!!
All the while there are Japanese people who are without shelter, sitting together in the ruins with an open air fire to warm them.
The anti-nuclear lobby have annoyed me over the way that they pounced on the situation, and on top of that the way that they have exaggerated the situation.
There is a very fine line between what is pure fantasy, which has been pushed by the likes of Gundersen, and what is the real situation, which has been very serious since it became clear that the reactors were in trouble.
Hi, Aussie – Even conservative programs have been guilty of hyping the Japanese nuclear situation, and that really ticks me off. For example, I believe it was last evening that Sean Hannity opened his program with something to the effect that Americans are asking about the radiation threat coming here. He said very emphatically, “It is already here.” Then a pause….and he proceeded to relate the incident where slight radiation had been discovered on the shoes of a couple of people coming into a U.S. airport from Japan.
Sensationalism and fear sell, and, sad to say, ratings are what drives most of the media. On the whole, the rest of the program was fairly presented, but somehow that temptation is there to shock and awe the listening audience.
I have just been on a news site to learn that the disgusting Gadaffi has launched his attack on Bengazhi.
All I can do now is pray for the people who are there. If Gaddaffi is successful then the civilian population of 1 million people is at risk.
The prevarication and dithering that has taken place over several weeks has placed all of these lives at risk.
These are not the people who were cheering when the Lockerbie bomber was returned to Triopoli. They are of a different tribe.
Libya is made up of several tribes. The tribes that support Gadhaffi are around Sirte, as well as the tribe of the Lockerbie bomber. There are people who have been paid off who also support Gadhaffi but it is not true of the rest of the people. They might be Muslims but they are also mostly of peasant stock. This is true of the people of Benghazi.
Despite what Gadaffi has claimed the people who have been fighting him are not Al Qaeda.
Even in Tripoli the situation for those who oppose Gadaffi is dire. Many have disappeared. They are sending strangers to the schools and questioning the children… and then people disappear.
In some respects I was taken by the story of one young Libyan who is now an American citizen and a cardiologist. His father was taken when he was 6 years old. The family was brought to the USA thanks to a cousin. However, they have no idea what happened to their father. He disappeared after being taken from their home when they were living in Egypt.
So many have suffered at the hands of Gadhaffi and if Øbama has supported this creep in the past, it says a lot about him if you know what I mean.
The Libyans are not bad people. Gadhaffi stole power in that country. He was never elected. He has enslaved the people for over 40 years.
Cabby – AZ | March 19, 2011 at 3:09 am |
Cabby it is sad to see this kind of hype. It disgusts me because it makes the USA look very introspective… as in it is “all about me”.
What about the people who do not have a roof over their heads? What about those who do not have shelter in Japan?
The radiation to date is minimal. The nuclear plant survived the earthquake. It is what followed that caused the problem, but everyone is just hyping on the real facts.
I am hoping that they can get reactor nr 2 hooked up and started again… at least as far as emerency systems are concerned. Yet to me it seems as if the anti-nuclear lobby want a disaster to prove their point!!

Good Morning!
CW – I just posted this a military site I visit. It’s in moderation, but I expect it to be posted.
It looks like Leo Donofrio, Esq., is leading the research and analysis for other media sites to follow. The American Thinker, in a well-written article, discuses both the Prof. Solum head fake and the Immigration Reform Law Institute’s (IRLI) intentional misquote in their brief before the United States Supreme Court.
Just to be clear, what is happening here is an intentional attempt to rewrite the meaning of the Presidential eligibility requirements embodied in Article II, Section 1 of the United States Constitution without going through the Amendment process outlined in Article V.
Isn’t that something that those who have taken an Oath (Judges, Representatives, Lawyers, Military) to defend the Constitution from enemies, foreign and domestic, should be concerned about?
If it isn’t, maybe the Oath should be changed.

Obama’s Puddles
By Cindy Simpson
Sir Walter Raleigh, so the legend goes, once threw his cloak over a mud puddle that sullied the path of Queen Elizabeth I. His chivalrous gesture served to keep Her Majesty’s dainty feet free of dirt and to shield the ugly puddle from the Queen’s and her loyal subjects’ view. Although such gallantry is rarely seen today, we witness a similar display of devotion as the media fawns and covers for the present ruler of Camelot. …
…A professor of law at the University of Illinois, Lawrence Solum, in his 2008 Michigan Law Review article addressing the presidential eligibility of John McCain, asserted the “general agreement” that “Anyone born on American soil whose parents are citizens of the United States is a ‘natural born citizen.'”
But then a year and a half later (and coincidentally, as the “birthers'” nagging assertion that Obama did not have US citizen parents plural, gained wide recognition), Solum threw down his cloak and issued a revised version of his article, under the same title, with the above quotation changed to read: “As a matter of inclusion, anyone born on American soil with an American parent is clearly a ‘natural born citizen.'”
Our nation’s proclivity for “inclusion” has contributed to the controversial practice of “birthright citizenship,” whereby citizenship is automatically granted to all babies born on US soil, regardless of the citizenship of either parent or the legal status of their domicile. The practice results in dual citizenship for individuals like Obama, a status not allowed for naturalized citizens who must renounce previous foreign citizenship and swear singular allegiance.
The rules granting US citizenship to a child born overseas with only one American parent differ depending on the sex of the citizen parent, and this gender discrimination is the subject of the Flores-Villar case currently before the Supreme Court. The amicus brief submitted by the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) contained a quote of John Bingham (author of the 14th Amendment) that “birthers” offer in support of their rejection of Obama’s eligibility:
“All from other lands, who by the terms of [congressional] laws and a compliance with their provisions become naturalized, are adopted citizens of the United States; all other persons born within the Republic, of parents owing allegiance to no other sovereignty, are natural born citizens.”
However, IRLI, with no indication, omitted from their brief the two words underlined: “of parents.” The omission clearly changes the meaning of the quote, and is very interesting considering it was the IRLI who helped draft the “Interstate Birth Certificate Compact” model legislation which restricts “birthright citizenship” and grants the status of “natural born” to babies born with only one citizen parent.
Words do matter, and the undisclosed omission of two critical ones in a legal brief to the highest court in the land is uncomfortably reminiscent of Professor Solum’s cloak-throwing gallantry. The error, unintentional or not, impacts analysis of Presidential eligibility, proposed “birthright citizenship” legislation, and the constitutionality of the states’ “birther” bills….
Wondering what the hold up is with the Rezko sentencing. It will be 3 years in early June. How common is this practice? Any examples in recent history?
Who has jurisdiction in this matter?
Where is he? Is he really in jail?
What is his status?
CW,
I apologize for insulting you. I truly am sorry. But I can’t find it in myself to do the same to Free Speech. He is insulting and condescending to many good people here, and I think he owes them an apology. If, for that reason, you would like me to ban myself from posting here, I will oblige.
United we stand; divided,
we fall.
The hard work and courageous undertakings of our host is being ignored incessantly by welcomed guests on a daily basis in this forum. Hmmmm. I wonder why.
I wonder if the visitors here even bother to read the articles presented.
I wonder if the visitors here realize the topic at hand is the key to our loss as a soveriegn nation.
Perhaps the visitors here couldn’t care less about the obliteration of our Country from within as each and every moment passes. Perhaps they do, but not right now.
Why did Fitzgerald hold a national press conference on 12/8/08 at lunchtime? Mission? Purpose? Goal? Mmmmmkay. Nevermind.

CW. With all due respect, I don’t think you’ll find much sympathy around here for any defamatory remarks made towards Leo. He has called every person that posts on your blog an obot at one time or another. He doesn’t like any of us and is an abusive human being. I stuck up for him a while back and I’m now sorry that I did so. With respect to his case a few years ago, I will just add that FS has displayed an anger management issue coupled with an obsessive behavior of instigation and provocation. Let’s just say that the obots who were out to Get him there could have just been figments of his imagination. But whatever.
That’s being said, I’ll try to avoid any more of this garbage but it looks as though Leo is doubling down today.
Sherman…I am seriously looking at Trump. ..
Trump. As they say in Pinochle.
Maybe we should start to think about our 2012 plank and build our Cabinet in advance. Who will work to close our borders north and south? Who will work to bring industry and tangible products back to our cities? Who will say no to foreign law called Shariah? Who will reinstate our Military as a Force to defend our Country? Who will tell the UN to go pound sand? Who will tell the States to balance their budgets or do without? Who will reinstate the Constitution and prosecute breach of Oath? Who will
investigate the Media and their ties to the Federal government? Who will depose and present discovery of the communist infiltration of the DNC? Who will outlaw the Theft of earnings and seizure of property? Who will impose luxury and privilege tax on Sports and Entertainment if they make more than $250,000 per diem?
We need a team. In advance. The 2012 ticket needs to be assembled.
Did bo cohort judge eisenstein LIE on STATEMENTS to the GOVERNMENT? Did Did bo cohort judge eisenstein COMMIT FEDERAL and STATE CRIMES?
http://www.newschannel5.com/story/14144240/newschannel5-investigates-unlicensed-psychologist
“He literally said, ‘I am God in this courtroom. You’re going to do what I say you’re going to do,'” recalled Mental Health Court graduate Jessica Poe.
Under Tennessee law, it’s illegal for a person to present himself or let others present him as a “psychologist” — unless that person is indeed licensed by the state as a psychologist. It’s also illegal for them to provide “counseling, psychoanalysis [or] psychotherapy.”
Through an attorney, Eisenstein claimed he never hired Casey to do the work of a psychologist.
Then, in late 2008, documents show that Judge Eisenstein wanted to put Casey on staff using federal money, writing in a memo that Casey had proven himself “an excellent psychologist.” In that same document, the judge noted that Casey had previously “conducted weekly group therapy” for Mental Health Court defendants.
“You told the Department of Justice that he was an excellent psychologist. What gave you that idea?” NewsChannel 5 Investigates asked.
Eisenstein didn’t respond.
His lawyer says the judge later learned that Casey wasn’t licensed, although he felt that Casey could still be useful in other roles. Casey’s contract with the Mental Health Court Foundation — which began in February 2009 — is unclear on his exact duties.
But more than a year later, the Mental Health Court Foundation’s tax return — sworn to by the judge himself — listed Casey as “staff psychologist.”
“If you knew that he wasn’t licensed, why would you tell the IRS that he was your staff psychologist?” we asked again.
Still, the judge had nothing to say.

European governments “completely puzzled” about U.S. position on Libya
“Frankly we are just completely puzzled,” the diplomat said. “We are wondering if this is a priority for the United States.”
On the same day, Clinton had a short meeting with French President Nicolas Sarkozy, in which Sarkozy pressed Clinton to come out more forcefully in favor of action in Libya. She declined Sarkozy’s request, according to a government source familiar with the meeting.
Sarkozy told Clinton that “we need action now” and she responded to him, “there are difficulties,” the source said, explaining that Clinton was referring to China and Russia’s opposition to intervention at the United Nations. Sarkozy replied that the United States should at least try to overcome the difficulties by leading a strong push at the U.N., but Clinton simply repeated, “There are difficulties.”
“The risk we run is to look weak because we’ve asked him to leave and we aren’t taking any action to support our rhetoric and that has consequences on the ground and in the region,” said the European diplomat.
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe wrote on his blog, “It is not enough to proclaim, as did almost all of the major democracies that ‘Qaddafi must go.’ We must give ourselves the means to effectively assist those who took up arms against his dictatorship.”
And Clinton’s former top aide Anne-Marie Slaughter accused the Obama administration of prioritizing oil over the human rights of the people of Libya.
“U.S. is defining ‘vital strategic interest’ in terms of oil and geography, not universal values. Wrong call that will come back to haunt us,” she wrote on Wednesday on her Twitter page.

Hi Aussie,
No need to explain at all!
As you say, this situation is quite fluid and changes by the minute! Our problem was (and continues to be) obtaining reliable information from *legitimate* sources and with the exception of a very few sites, there’s a lot of disinformation out there; much of it is posted here.
Initially, info was all over the place because reporters, people on the ground and officials were not able to witness exactly what was going on; from fluctuating radiation readings and the type of radiation being produced they could only assume what was taking place. We still don’t know what’s happening in the containment/core structure.
Hoping that the renewal of power to the reactors will give the teams a fighting chance to assess the damage and proceed with their plans to mitigate that damage and stop any further damage from occurring. As it is now, it’s like stabbing at some unseen threat in pitch blackness.
Aussie
please explain this ….

Hi da verg,
I think Aussie is sleeping at this hour, so permit me to jump in?
The ‘contamination’ of crops and milk is to be expected in an event like this. The hydrogen explosions at the nuclear facility would certainly spread some radioactivity from the air to the land. I’m sure that constant monitoring is being conducted around the area to see exactly how far the radioactivity has spread.
With the blasts sending meterial into the atmosphere, it just makes sense that it’d eventually fall to earth and settle on a anything on the ground.
I can only speak for my general area here in New England, but sampling is ongoing with the three nuclear power stations in our vicinity; groundwater, surface water, shellfish, fish, lobster, wild vegetation, crops, and milk are tested weekly (if not more often) for any effects that may be attributed to the nuclear power stations. As I’ve mentioned previously, monitoring arrays called RadNet (from the EPA) are in place in all 50 states; this equipment samples rainwater and air, looking for any radioactivity. One array in Sacramanto, CA did detect very low levels of radioactivity from Japan, but it was so far below the amount necessary to be deemed a danger, it really isn’t a significant event.
So, yes, radioactivity around Fukishima and the surrounding areas would be expected.

Thanks for the credible info, da verg.
As all responsible World Leaders demand testing of contaminated food from Japan, bo does NOTHING.
As Japan struggles to contain radiation leaking from crippled nuclear reactors, many countries, including China, Indonesia, South Korea and Thailand have already started to test food imported from Japan for radiation, and the European Union has recommended that member countries do so.

David Limbaugh: Obama’s the “most” racial president
While President Obama has touted himself as a post-racial president, he has built a record demonstrating precisely the opposite. Is it Obama’s bitterness, or is the incessant playing of the race card by him and many of his supporters merely calculated political exploitation — or both?
Let’s look at a non-exhaustive list of examples since Obama took office.
click link for list or my name
http://washingtonexaminer.com/node/63686
I think it is comical that someone would vote for Trump because he blurted out that he doubts Obummer was born in the USA.
Maybe Trump and Ron Paul will split the Loony vote.
Anyone running as an independant is most likely an Obot. No doubt in my mind.
Also, Bill Cutting….not that I have decided to back Trump, but he has gone further in “outing” Obama than nearly every other so-called Patriot that currently occupies any office in our country. That to me is worth a lot at this point. It makes sense that obots would attack Trump AFTER he gives “birthers” credibility by outing himself as one. Expect the obots to go after Trump hard. It has already started here with an obot posting after you regarding Trump going independent. Obots will attack Trump for outing Obama.
Mario and Charles did a radio interview that is well worth listening to. It may be located at his site..Puzo1.blogspot.com. or on facebook..Millions of Americans protest eligibility. They discuss the phony COLB..Citizen parents ect.. Keep up fighting for truth and justice, stay safe, God Bless. Feel free to punch the lights out of the MSM…may they burn soon.
Also, Trump has well defined positions on China and a multitude of other issues. Does this translate into Presidential material? Not sure yet, but there is NO DOUBT that he is pro-American and that he loves our country.
Thanks Margie… Mario is a gentleman and a scholar. He has actually stepped up to the plate with his legal expertise to challenge Obama. He’s no rabble rousing obot sent here to disrupt conversation and out people like Donald Trump who doubt Obama’s eligibility.

What was that Hamas-linked CAIR and other Islamic supremacist groups were saying about how it was utterly fanciful that Sharia would ever be used to judge cases in American courts?
For the record, I NEVER said Mario was “stupid,” I merely stated as many other lawyers did that Mario made mistakes in his dismissed case.
The only reason that I pointed out Mario’s mistakes was to help prevent other lawyers from making the same mistakes that Mario made.
I appreciate what Mario did to publicize bo’s ineligibilty, that work has been helpful to our cause.

Dazed and Confused on Libya
President Obama’s Latin Dance
Liberals and conservatives alike have begun to criticize President Obama’s sluggish handling of the crisis in Libya. A growing chorus of Americans is anxious for the Administration to take decisive action, or at least articulate a plan.
Mario addressed FS directly about his smears against him. FS could not rebut. You see, Mario has class.

Sad lack of decisive action from Obama over Libyan mayhem
Obots like FS want to destroy Donald Trumps credibility now that he has come out as a serious person with celebrity status doubting Obama’s eligibility.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/thereporters/gavinhewitt/
There is no doubt that the French leader, with his renowned energy, was the key player in driving through a UN resolution that now allows “all necessary measures” to be used to protect civilians in Libya. He was undeterred by a divided EU and a G8 palpably unenthusiastic about any military action.
It’s not that he acted alone. David Cameron was an ally, working the phones to get the votes in New York. But as Francois Baroin, Sarkozy’s spokesman said, it was “the French who led the calls for action”. The French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe travelled to New York to lobby the UN ambassadors.
The Obama administration had hesitated, reluctant to use its power in another Arab nation. But if Gaddafi won it would have been asked in Washington: “Who lost Libya?” And around the world, Obama would have been seen to have failed the Arab spring.
How does it feel, you prick?
Even Arab Americans are SICK of bo’s LACK OF LEADERSHIP

Japan is suffering from a natural disaster that threatens to turn into an existential crisis. Colonel Q-ball has unleashed a blistering assault on pro-democracy rebel forces. Large swaths of the Middle East are in turmoil. The federal government is bleeding red ink, with absolutely no end in site. The economy sucks and is getting battered by skyrocketing commodity prices and a volatile oil market. Near-record numbers of Americans are leaving the work force.

This is where Obama thinks he gets a pass. He believes that if he fails to make a decision that he is absolved of blame. He can disavow responsibility for the outcome. This is the shallow, self-serving and narcissistic aspect to the man that leaves so many wanting when they look to him for leadership. Obama is a small man concerned only with maintaining a false image in his mirror. He is incapable of facing the consequences of his actions, or inaction and the press has been loyally allowing him this evasion, but the bodies are starting to pile up outside the walls of his little Marxist kingdom and the blood is on his hands…

YES, obot FS called Trump LOONY right after Trump questioned Obama’s eligibility.
Regardless if you would vote for Trump or not, only an Obot like FS would immediately discredit Trump for lending our movement credibility.
SueK and Aussie, and Cabbie: Appreciate the info you have presented re the nuclear problems in Japan. It’s refreshing to have actual facts delivered and not the hype that some who are not really experts like to push as fact. I enjoy reading your posts here and hope you can keep them coming. I tend to skip over the majority of posters on this site who continue to bite each other with words. Very non-productive imo.

Obama and Family in Brazil: Lots of Ceremony, Little Else Snips
The first image was that of a smiling president of the United States, waving as he rapidly descended from Air Force One at 7:45 am this morning at the Brasília airport. Beside him, his oldest daughter, Malia, 10, followed by his wife, Michelle, and the youngest daughter, Sasha, 7. Bringing up the rear, Obama’s mother-in-law, Marian Robinson. Greetings were exchanged on the tarmac, more smiles and waving. Then everybody climbed aboard the presidential car, known as “the beast,” and drove off to the GoldenTulip Hotel.
With American president Barack Obama and his family aboard, Air Force One touched down at exactly 7:31 this morning in Brasília. Obama and his committee (estimated to be a total of one thousand) will spend the day in the capital of Brazil and leave for Rio de Janeiro this evening around 6:30 pm.

But plans for a joint news conference Saturday, with questions from the U.S. and Brazilian media, are now in doubt.
The White House says the Brazilians are balking at the idea of a news conference, and that the two leaders may not take questions. Instead, they may each issue a statement and leave it at that.
If it occurred, the press conference would have come at a sensitive moment for Mr. Obama. U.S. cabinet officials are conferring with allies in advance of a potential military strike on Libya. The administration has diverged from Japan, a close ally, in its assessment of the nuclear power plant crisis there. The governments of Yemen and Bahrain have cracked down on protests.

http://obamareleaseyourrecords.blogspot.com/2011/03/chicago-tribune-donald-trump-to.html
——–
Beth Fouhy – Associated Press:
“Obama should be pressed to disclose the original birth certificate. “When you look at what happens today, you look at the misconduct, the fraud and forgeries, you really want to see proof,” Trump told the AP. Obama was born and grew up in Hawaii, and his 2008 campaign issued a certification of live birth — an official document from the state.
–The “birther” movement has legitimate concerns, Trump told ABC. “The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him.””

*****************************
My position is somewhat like yours, Paxson, re. Trump. I would like to know more about him but am very gratified as to his being willing to speak out about the eligibility issue. When someone reacts as vehemently as FS at the slightest mention of Trump, then my antennae go up and my suspicions are aroused as you indicate yours are. There is something wrong here. I have personally felt for sometime that there is some serious undermining going on, and it is constantly getting worse. I have mixed emotions as to whether to continue to resist or just give it all up as a lost cause.
http://theoxpecker.blogspot.com/2010/07/obama-most-hated-president.html
In plain fact, Obama is on his way to becoming the most hated president of the modern epoch…
It should be clearly pointed out that most of the protesters in Brazil against Obama don’t have the same reasons as we patriots do. Many, if not most of them ,are hard-core socialists, and they are angry because Obama is not doing enough to please them. Read the reports carefully – on Drudge .
O has not reached THEIR expectations for bringing socialism to America. Their protests seem to be touted by some as though they agree with us and our constitutional beliefs. Should that give us any comfort that they think he is not socialistic enough? Absolutely not! But beware of thinking that just because they are the enemy of OUR enemy, then they are our friends.
Cabby,
FS has been too much of an oddball character. He is the Sunstein disinformation obot character.. this deal with Trump seals it.
In case anyone is interested, it is not the USA who is doing anything of value with regard to Libya:
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/03/19/3168556.htm
As you can see from this Australian ABC article, it is France that is leading the way, and it is French warplanes that are already involved in the very necessary action.

Obama’s Presidency Hangs by a Thread
Japan may be on the verge of an unprecedented catastrophe. Saudi Arabia is all but colonizing Bahrain. Qaddafi is close to retaking Libya, with bloodbath to follow. And, as Jim Geraghty notes, the president of the United States is going on ESPN to talk about the NCAA and delivering speeches today on his rather dull plan to replace No Child Left Behind with No Teenager Left Behind, or something like that.
It’s hard to overstate how poorly Barack Obama is doing in the face of these crises — and I don’t even mean how he’s doing substantively, which is a scandal in itself. I mean how he’s doing politically.
Recall how much hay Michael Moore made of the fact that George W. Bush read My Pet Goat for nine minutes in that Florida classroom on 9/11 after being informed that the first plane had struck.
We’re going on four weeks now, or more, that Barack Obama has been reading My Pet Goat.

You will find an answer to your questions regarding the contamination that has been discovered in the milk etc. You will find that it is expected that it will clear within days.
This is what minimal exposure means, it does not mean non-existent, but that some radiation escaped. What is important is the type.
I cannot copy the part of the text that makes the explaination, so I urge you to check out the link and read what is stated on the subject.

Fox & Friends’ Steve Doocy ripped Obama’s trip on Friday as a ‘vacation,” saying it’s inappropriate for a president to go on such a jaunt while officials in Japan race to prevent a total nuclear meltdown, and Libyan dictator Moammar Khadafy continues his assault on rebels, in spite of UN threats and his own promise of a ceasefire.
“What is happening with the president while all of this is going on in the United States and around the world?” Doocy said. “He’s going on vacation. He’s going to Rio. You’ve got to be kidding. Taking his family. It sounds like a vacation to me. Rio? Hello?”
The Washington Times ran an editorial this week titled ‘Obama Couldn’t Care Less,” declaring ‘the president parties while the world burns.”
And conservative television commentator Monica Crowley told Fox Business Channel that ‘Perception is reality. He’s always shooting hoops, he’s having Terry Bradshaw nights at the White House, he’s in Rio. The world is aflame! Go to work!”

Whether or not we agree with the concept of nuclear energy, it is here and up and running, so we deal with the good, bad, and ugly accordingly.
Apparently, some can’t seem to do that.

this website seems to have gotten away from obama eligibility / birth certificate issue just at the time it is getting hotter. that trial is a secondary matter compared to the importance of our constitution but you seem to stay on it almost all the time.
Donald Trump is a long time backer of Democrats, gave $50k to Marxist Mayor Rahm Emanuel. Watch for Obots to push Trump or some other fringe candidate (Ron Paul) on Conservative Blogs.
I really don’t understand the Birth Certificate folks, even if BHO produced a Long Form BC with BHO senior as the father, he is still ineligible under the Constituion.

Is a lie and defamatory toward Leo and insulting to me since I fully investigated the situation. This crosses the boundary of disagreeing
and will not be tolerated. An apology is in order.
====================================
SueQ, please do not be dismayed. You were given partial true information and based on activities here over the last weeks (and days, in particular) it strikes us you asked a reasonable question.
CW, of course you are correct but not everybody posting here goes back that far. Some of us at least lurked here from the beginning and know the work you did and the corruption of the Tennessee law and political system. Based on your research, many of us contributed significantly to help get Leo out.
BUT YOU SEEM TO FAIL TO REALIZE THAT SOME OF THE ONES HERE WHO ARE ABUSED THE MOST BY THIS UNGRATEFUL MAGGOT ARE THE ONES THAT CONTRIBUTED THE MOST.
He has worn out (many times over) any brownie points or hero charms he earned in that fiasco.
Finally, we seem to remember that Leo was involved in MULTIPLE run-ins with the law and that your research and our support was only directed at the one instance.
SO – SueQ – your question was reasonable and there is still very much more to the story.
BUT – CW – is technically correct on this one thing.
PS – everybody – and this no doubt explains some of the DEEP ANGER. Do you know who gave a LOT and worked HARD on getting Leo out of prison and getting the Tennessee “authorities” off his back? In fact at one time, I think it was thought that he had given the most. Although more may have been given later.
HINT: He doesn’t post here anymore but you can occasionally see him on moderated blogs where disrupters are sifted off the top. Places like at Mario Apuzzo, Post n Email, etc.
Birth Cetrificate issue is a Red Herring, started by Democrats to cover BHO dual citizenship.
Look at the leading “O” pologist site run by the Cowboy from the Village People , they rarely discuss the dual citizenship issue.

===========
Aussie,
Your statements that “The reactor is not harmed” “The reactor is quite safe” ” “The radiation to date is minimal. The nuclear plant survived the earthquake” “My understanding is that the radiation levels are still very low” are obviously FALSE.
At this point it is obvious that your disinformation is willfully dishonest and you have lost all credibility.
As it turns out, if we would stop and think just a bit, we wouldn’t have to call each other names. It is quite easily sorted out. (Yes, we know we posted this before, but not everyday everyhour. Hopefully enough time and space has elapsed to make this worthwhile again.)
OBOTS GALORE
Remember folks, there are exactly 3 types of Obots – you can use this handy guide.
1. Organized disrupters and ‘weasels’ that bury themselves into crowds of Patriots – often referred to as The Sunstein Army, although they seem to be more closely the spawn of the DOJ.
2. Individuals who take it upon themselves to carry the torch of the Obamessiah.
3. People who are perhaps not intentionally Obama Disciples, but in spite of carefully reasoned analysis against their various positions, persist in disruptively pushing the bad ideas and bad information.
Strictly speaking, only category 1 are really Obots. The second category are perhaps better classified simply as Morons or Goons. The third category are simply bullheaded to the point of being counterproductive.
But, regardless, they all have about the same negative impact on the proceedings. So, watch where you step. This list should help you avoid most of the cowpies.
Paxson | March 19, 2011 at 3:14 pm |
Paxson, speaking of robots (no, not that kind!) I was informed this morning that a local company, iRobot, headquartered in Bedford, MA (I drive by them each day on the way to work) will be sending a cadre of *real* robots plus a field team of 6 from MA to Japan to help with the reactor problem. Where people can’t go, robots sure can! The team from MA will be training the Japanese how to use the robots to access areas they can’t; a few models of one particular robot can ‘hold’ an industrial-type hose to spray large amounts of water whee needed. They also sent robots to the site of the Gulf oil disaster to see exactly what was happening under the surface.
This is the company that invented the Roomba, that little disk that vacuums your floors for you and scares the he*l out of any house pets you may have :).
Here’s their industrial and government page explaining what these little devices are capable of. I’m very proud that this company is right here in my own back yard, and prouder still that they’re stepping up to the plate to try to help the people of Japan. And I told them so!

Well remembered is the near “trashing” of good Mario Apuzzo and also his firm rebuttal. There have been so many times when I’ve just about had it. Only a very nasty or maladjusted person would continue to call everyone that doesn’t agree with him, an obot. The minute a person expresses any opinion that sufficiently crosses FS, he is labeled an obot. Coming from him, I wear the badge proudly, because I know it is untrue and only bespeaks of his low self-esteem. There is definitely NO excuse for this behavior. It doesn’t seem to make any difference whether one overlooks it or rebukes it.

http://www.prisonplanet.com/mainstream-media-halts-accurate-reporting-on-japans-worsening-nuclear-catastrophe-disinfo-campaign-now-underway.html
Almost as if on cue, the mainstream media today halted nearly all accurate reporting of the worsening situation in Japan, writing off the whole thing as a “non issue.” This all happened in a seeming coordinate effort following President Obama’s speech on Wednesday that urged Americans to NOT prepare for anything. The American people, Obama insisted, should simply watch television to “stay informed.” (http://www.naturalnews.com/031735_O…) Shortly after, mainstream television news returned to its regularly-scheduled sports and entertainment programming, barely touching on the reality of the worsening situation at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan.
Nuclear experts that were on mainstream news channels two days are now nowhere to be found today. Scary (but accurate) news stories about Fukushima have now been all but completely banned from the MSM. The word from the top is clearly that media outlets should start downplaying this nuclear accident, which even now ranks as the second worst nuclear accident in the history of human civilization (right after Chernobyl).

The Obama administration is corrupt and evil
President Barack Obama exhibits very little to none of the biblical teachings of the Judeo-Christian faith. To this day, he has not become a member of any of the Christian churches in Washington, D.C.
I’m not going to stop reminding the American people about the fact that Obama sat in the Trinity United Church of Christ for 20 years because he liked what he heard coming out of the mouth of an anti-American, anti-Semitic, bigoted pastor named Jeremiah Wright.
Progressive Black Liberation Theology is a Marxist teaching. It explains the goals of this president as he continually works to destroy our country. For nearly a century, communists have sought to bring down the greatest nation in the world, and the current resident of the White House is no exception.

When Obama was elected, those enamored with his rhetoric convinced themselves that he was going to bring a new respect to America through his “wise” foreign policy, even though that policy was never delineated. The results, after just two years, are that the US has lost its world leadership role, insulted its allies, and has become a nation of inaction, indecision, and internal squabbling.

Lack of Leadership: France Takes Lead in Libya While Obama Fiddles

Sharia has not been codified into the criminal or civil code of FL. Reading the short court decree referenced, this ruling makes perfect sense, considering these underlying ‘facts’ which any lawyer is able to extrapolate from the order.
Parties previously engaged in (and paying costs for) a lawsuit being adjudicated in court agreed with each other to enter into binding arbitration, instead, to settle their current dispute. This means, they agreed to mediate in a forum in which the ‘mediator’ and not the parties to the dispute, would ultimately decide who gets what. And the parties would accept that decision. (In fact, binding arbitration resembles contract law, in a sense. Only, the mediator gets to write the final contract.) The parties also agreed as to the rules of that mediation: Sharia. They asked for and received an (oral) order formalizing their agreement.
Now it looks like one of the parties to that previously agreed upon binding arbitration asked the court to issue a written order of that previous oral order. (Perhaps the other party is balking at the turn the mediation is taking; or is dissatisfied with the final ruling of the arbitrator.)
FYI, whether the agreement of the parties to enter into binding arbitration was ever memorialized in writing between the parties; or just by the court, the ruling of the arbitrator can now be enforced in a civil court, just like any other legal contract between parties.

What was that Hamas-linked CAIR and other Islamic supremacist groups were saying about how it was utterly fanciful that Sharia would ever be used to judge cases in American courts?

Free Speech | March 19, 2011 at 5:00 pm |
From commentor George ,
[Just finished reading through the whole smash here. David Yerushalmi, call your office! Not an attorney here (though I play one on TV),
but here’s what I get from a layman’s perspective:
Our generated and veneered legal experts are telling us that if there’s an agreement between 2 parties to accept arbitration–by whatever criteria and arbiters to which they agree–then our courts will recognize and enforce (?) this agreement. So if they agree to settle any “contoversies” per Space Federation Law with Leonard Nimoy as arbitrator, our courts will recognize his decision–and make certain on any appeal that Federation Law was properly invoked by the arbitrator. Or perhaps Sicilian Law with John Gotti as arbitrator? Or maybe…sharia law with mohammad (or his local mouthpiece imam) as arbitrator?
Do I have that right? So, if they’ve already agreed to arbitration, then why do they need the court? Does that mean that the party ruled-against has refused to comply and this was the winner’s only remedy? But…doesn’t that require the court, per paragraphs 2 and 3, to interpret and enforce “Islamic Ecclesiastical Law, pursuant to the Qur’an”–and per paragraph 3, to ensure “Islamic dispute procedures have been followed?”
So…does this mean that muslims in this country can agree to use sharia law to settle their disputes and then, if anything goes awry, to use the power of our courts to enforce their sharia? So they’re just using OUR law to enforce THEIR law?
Excuse me, but I think that sucks! Parasitic is an apt description, Wellington. And, you legal eagles can tell me that this is just business-as-usual, nothing new under the sun–but…when I see an AMERICAN legal document, bearing the court’s stamp, with the islamic goddbledygook this one contains–I feel like I’m deep down in a mine with a canary on my shoulder, singing its little heart out… ]
In America, one cannot ‘consent’ to a criminal act. For example, in Oregon, the only reason doctors prescribe medication to terminally ill patients to end their lives is that, the law deems this conduct is not illegal. http://public.health.oregon.gov/ProviderPartnerResources/EvaluationResearch/DeathwithDignityAct/Pages/index.aspx
Maybe this concept would be easier to understand in this context. In criminal law, the ‘victim’ is the state, and not the person aggrieved by the unlawful conduct, who is technically the state’s witness against the Defendant. That’s why the Plaintiff is listed as the state (or commonwealth).
Binding arbitration is a common (much less expensive) remedy to civil disputes. Any lawyer knows this.
FOS. I wish that I would have known about that birther.org analysis and info earlier. I also did not know that he had attacked Kerchner. I have come to my conclusions on my own, which is the way it ought to be I suppose. I am just disappointed in myself that I let this person cause me So much mental anguish.
Attacking Trump for no good reason, whether you believe he is Presidential or not, was very suspicious. Especially since Trump has gone further than anyone doubting the nativity story. Only an obot like FS appears to be would do this.

Obama’s Indonesian gay nanny and other things from his past
With Obama visiting Indonesia today, the New York Times has a story that is just chock-full of interesting tidbits about Obama’s time living there as a child in the late 1960s. For example, the Times reports that back then Obama was “chubby” and that some of the locals referred to him as “the boy who runs like a duck.”
Then, of course, there’s this:
His nanny was an openly gay man who, in keeping with Indonesia’s relaxed attitudes toward homosexuality, carried on an affair with a local butcher, longtime residents said. The nanny later joined a group of transvestites called Fantastic Dolls, who, like the many transvestites who remain fixtures of Jakarta’s streetscape, entertained people by dancing and playing volleyball.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d95_1223958449
The National Enquirer now suggests Barack Obama had an underage, gay affair with a pedophile.
The ENQUIRER exclusively reports a “sex pervert” was Sen. Barack Obama’s longtime mentor and “father figure”.
For seven years, the presidential candidate had a “father-son” relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, who has confessed to having sex with children, sadomasochism, bondage and practicing a wide array of deviant sexual activities.
In his 1995 memoir Dreams from My Father, Obama identifies his childhood mentor only as “Frank,” but Obama insiders later confirmed he was referring to Davis, a journalist and poet who was a pal of Obama’s maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham.
Frank Marshall Davis admitted in his private papers that he had secretly authored a hard-core pornographic autobiography called Sex Rebel: Black, published in 1968. The author of the book – a copy of which was been obtained by The ENQUIRER – is listed as “Bob Greene.” Davis later confessed to its authorship after a reader noticed similarities in style and phraseology between that book and Davis’ poetry.
Davis confessed: “I could not truthfully deny that this book, which came out in 1968 as a Greenleaf Classic, was mine.”
“Davis’ admission he wrote this disturbing book exposes Obama’s mentor as living a secret double life – and as a sexual pervert,” disclosed a source.
In his shocking tell-all, Davis admits to seducing a thirteen year-old girl, voyeurism, exhibitionism, bisexuality, rape and sadomasochism.
Barack describes how Frank Davis had a lasting effect on him and became a father figure over the seven years they knew one another on the tropical island.
In Dreams from My Father, Obama wrote: “He would read us poetry whenever we stopped by his house, sharing whiskey with Gramps out of an emptied jelly jar.
“As the night wore on, the two of them would solicit my help in composing dirty limericks.”
Obama described being counseled by Frank often and recalled drinking whiskey with him.
Since Frank Davis has been identified as the author of Sex Rebel: Black, Obama has been extremely secretive about the true nature of his experience with the self-admitted deviant.

For three decades, mystery and myth have surrounded the death of Malcolm X in the Audubon Ballroom and what role, if any, Mr. Farrakhan played on that bloody Sunday afternoon, Feb. 21, 1965.
Last year, Dr. Shabazz said in a television interview with a New York station, that she believed Mr. Farrakhan had been involved in the assassination.
“Nobody kept it a secret,” Dr. Shabazz said on WNBC-TV’s “News Forum.” “It was a badge of honor. Everybody talked about it.”

You know that an American administration has proven useless and ineffective for supporting liberty and freedom in oppressed countries when even France… France… takes the lead in recognizing a struggling, independent liberty movement. Such is the case in Libya where French President Nicolas Sarkozy has recognized and supported the Libyan rebels struggling to over throw Libyan dictator Gaddhafi.
For his part, President Obama, the man that is supposed to be fulfilling the role of the “leader of the free world” is attending school bullying pressers and secretly supporting fleebagging Democrats in Wisconsin while practically turning a blind eye to the Libyan rebels fighting for their lives.

Sue K, it looks like all of the Muslims are disgruntled in the middle east. Best yet, they want the USA to side with them, as they revolt against their leaders. If anything good comes out of this, Obama wants to be in a position to take the credit.
Anyone who wants accurate comment and reporting on the current situation in Fukushima should visit this site:
The comment field provides a lot of information. A lot of the misinformation that is being bandied about by the hysterical anti-nuclear lobby is answered by many of the guests who are leaving comments.
One does not need to be pro-nuclear energy to see that there has been a group of opportunists, and Helen Caldicott is one of those most despicable opportunists who have been busy creating hysteria about the situation.
Each day I have tried to interpret what I have been reading. My understanding remains that the situation is serious but relatively stable.
The radiation detected in milk and spinach from farms near the reactor is a concern, but if you read the articles properly the amounts found are within reasonable limits at this point in time. There are many factors that might change in the near future. We do not know for certain whether this will get worse or not.
At this point in time the engineers are working to start up the cooling system in plant number 2. A generator was hooked up to plants 5 and 6 (where there were no explosions) and they are stable with the cooling systems working.
The change from a category 4 incident to category 5 was retrospective. It is the same category as Three Mile Island, and is not the same as Chernobyl. For a start it is a very different type of reactor.
I stand by my original comments about the stability of the inner metal containers at the plants, based upon the information that was being made available. With the situation being so fluid though, changes were not surprising, including the explosions. At least one explosion was due to human error when the rods in that particular plant were exposed to the air for more than 140 minutes.
Also I stand by my comments about radiation levels, because of the constant monitoring, I have not seen any evidence in reports that indicates that the levels have reached those that are dangerous for human health.

“They have entered Benghazi from the west. Where are the Western powers? They said they could strike within hours,” rebel military spokesman Khalid al-Sayeh told Reuters.
Hundreds of cars full of refugees headed east from Benghazi toward the Egyptian border.
In the besieged western city of Misrata, residents said government forces shelled the rebel town again on Saturday and they were facing a humanitarian crisis as water supplies had been cut off for a third day.
“I am telling you, we are scared and we are alone,” a Misrata resident, called Saadoun, told Reuters by telephone.
Benghazi residents were angry at the West’s delay. “Europe and America have sold us out. We have been hearing bombing all night, and they have been doing nothing. Why? we have no one to help us but God,” said Hassan Marouf, 58, standing outside the door of his house in Benghazi.

Do you think O will be welcomed in Chicago by Farrakhan and his followers?
Also, on Drudge did you notice the picture of O walking in a dress ceremony. O looks bad (skin and bones) a loss of weight?

The profound debate dividing the US government on how to proceed on the Libyan crisis burst out into the open this week in several conflicting statements: President Barack Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Defense Secretary Robert Gates and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Adm. Mike Mullen, were all seen to be pulling in different directions – especially over military intervention to resolve the uprising against Muammar Qaddafi.

Two thirds of the Americans are against US military intervention in Libya, according to the latest polls. Yet, we are bombing Libya and it is a fact. The US Congress did not authorize it and the Commander-in-Chief Obama is dining with his Comrade Rousseff of Brazil like the event in North Africa is a firework show and not another war for the USA.
Typical bo STUPIDITY, announcing that he did not have the balls for battle before the War began.
http://www.kansascity.com/2011/03/18/2736530/obama-vows-us-role-in-libya-will.html
As Western powers and Arab allies prepared to meet Saturday for an emergency summit on Libya, President Barack Obama pledged to support a United Nations-backed military campaign against Col. Moammar Gadhafi but said that he wouldn’t send troops to Libyan soil or take over the operation.
Obama’s comments, a day after the U.N. Security Council authorized Great Britain and France to launch airstrikes to protect civilians and enforce a no-fly zone over Libya, signaled a circumscribed U.S. role in the troubled North African nation and came after a meeting with members of Congress, some of whom have voiced reservations about U.S. involvement.

WASHINGTON — Top Pentagon officials strongly suggested Tuesday that American military intervention in Libya is unlikely, even as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told a congressional panel that the Obama administration was looking at “every single lever it can use” to push Moammar Gadhafi out of power.
This is another baseless tempest in an increasingly rancid teapot. You keep repeating frivolous proclamations from LD – I am sorry AT got taken in this time, too – which I then have to de-bunk. In fact, I am already well into the process of writing another article completely de-constructing not only this latest mythological construct from LD, but also pointing out, the IRLI is an extreme right-wing group and so, would never support the contention, Obama is a U.S. citizen, anyway. (Didn’t he even look them up before he accused them of complicity in the D’s eligibility schemes?) But this is only one aspect of this present ‘the documents don’t fit’ saga LD got completely wrong.
http://blogs.forbes.com/gordonchang/2011/03/19/war-by-committee-against-libya/
This is how President Obama wants to wage war—standing in the middle of a pack of nations.
Yet can multilateralism win wars? By its very nature, collective action also brings complexity, and complexity is rarely good in geopolitics. Question: Why did it take so long for the international community to come together on Libya, despite the obvious need for military action some 10 days ago? Answer: The seemingly intractable differences among members of the Security Council…
Complex coalitions also rarely stay together and often lead to indecision and delay, usually fatal to war fighting. It is no coincidence that NATO’s 48-nation security mission in Afghanistan, the International Security Assistance Force, is having so much difficulty. The coalition now arrayed against Gadhafi, unfortunately, looks even less capable or resilient than the much-derided ISAF.

Seriously, if I checked in daily, the trackball on my mouse would explode in heat from all the fast forwarding required to get by Free Speeches’ repetitive drivel.
And Bill Cutting – whoever you are – here is the bottom line: We need to win the next Presidential election. Period. The country cannot survive four more years of Obama. Conservative litmus tests are so last year – get over it. Trump can carry New York – perhaps much of the northeast – and therefore can win. His speeches are all about tackling the fiscal issues and stay away from the bedroom issues. To my mind, a perfect candidate.
I do not care if his motivation is selfish – might even be – as Trump owns so much property in the U.S. If he just wants to save the country to save himself – all the better motivation.
I keep hoping the sign in here and find a Leo free zone. Kudos to the poster who provided the link to the exposure of him at birthers.org – sorry I did not note the name. Everyone should scroll up, find it and read it.

Yep, Bob, even though they hate us, they want us to help. I feel that old Barky has lost not only the American public (even those who supported him), but his ‘brothers’ in the Middle East. He’s weak and a turncoat to them, so I think he lacks credibility no matter how you slice it. somehow, I don’t think he’ll come out of this smelling like a lily no matter what he does.
I’ve always been of the school that says keep our noses out of that sewer over there, use our own energy resources here, and let ’em all duke it out according to the ‘Religion of Peace.’
Why we’re held hostage at their hands for damned oil when we have plenty of resources here is still beyond me.

It appears as though the worm is beginning to turn. If he’s not measuring up to not only Soros’ agenda but the Muslim agenda, ass well, he’s a goner.
Here is some perspective on the real situation in Japan, where thousands are still missing, and these men, who are volunteers, face the task of trying to find the bodies of those who have died. Many of them are homeless, living in a communal shelter, with not enough to eat and to sustain them.

Hi Aussie,
Your 8:39PM post is spot on! Please see my post to da verg at 11:09 AM regarding the contamination. It was for you but I assumed you were sleeping, so I jumped in. Sorry if I stepped on any toes.
Yes, we don’t yet know the extent of any contamination, but it’s to be expected with an event like this. Radiation likes to travel on ‘particles’ and since it’s winter in Japan, snow and any air pollution present would make a terrific carrier.
My heart breaks for the people who are left with nothing. Being an island nation, Japan has few natural resources (thus, the dependence on nuclear power) and like Hawaii, must import many staples for the survival their population. Food and shelter is critical and that’s in short supply right now. This is where the (legitimate) relief agencies come in to try to work their magic. My favorite is the Salvation Army because unlike other ‘charities,’ their Director only earns $13,000 year. My few dollars will be in their cup tomorrow.
We can’t even imagine what those good folks are going through with the ‘triple whammy’ of a major earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear event. We just can’t imagine…
@SueK,
yes I was sleeping when the question was asked and I should have thanked you sooner for making a response. My bad.
I made a small donation via Zynga games and Save the Children Fund using my spare farm cash :). I did the same with Haiti. Otherwise I agree that donations to the Salvation Army is good for making the right target.
When I was younger I babysat some Japanese children – Hiroko and Yoichiro (boy born overseas) Seki. I hope that they were not in the earthquake zone.
CW. Really? After 3 years? You are choosing the maniac?
@Paxson, it is far better to not directly respond to this individual.
Let me just say that it is a tactic that I use to remain calm when people are being rude, bigoted and otherwise objectionable.
Aussie. ..I never mentioned this before, but I played the Kiwi national sport at the very highest levels. I Have done things and seen things that our resident loser (and it saddens me to make that accusation ) will never nor ever have the balls to do. This is nothing compared to the bravery of fellas like Old Salt, but it should lend some insight into the fact that I have no fear of small people. I gave FS a hard time today, trying to show him how ridiculous that he is, but his inability for self reflection gives him does not compute response. I don’t believe that he is an obot. I do believe that he is a self absorbed human being who only cares for himself. I also believe that he has retarded (as in stunted) social skills. As an intelligent person, I’m sure that you could pick up What I was putting down in my reciprocity of FS”s daily behavior and giving him a dose of What he puts out every day to anyone who doesn’t completely agree with his myopic view of the world.
I was,frankly, shocked when CW asked SueQ to apologize to FS. Can You Get over that one given Leo’s behavior and how he mistreats everyone? Surely CW must be doing his own self reflection in backing up the words and deeds of such a maniacal person as Leo.
It is self evident, not sure why CW is so bought in given Mario”s, Kerchner’s and a multitude if righteous people’s opinions of the (small) man.
You know it took me a long time to articulate these opinions and I tried to convince others to give him the benefit of the doubt. ..I was wrong. ..he is doubling down. …
Sorry my sentences and grammar is so jacked up…my computer was sent back under warranty and I’ve been on my android which has a mind of it’s own…
While it may well be wishful thinking, I can’t help wish that some (alleged) world leader would have enough golf balls to haul Soetoro into the World Court,for Internatrional Fraud. Particulary those countries who have signed AGREEMENTS with him. They DON’T necessarily need any eligibility, or citizenship issue, to support their charge of fraud. However it might be the best place and time to expose him. While it is both possible and probable that the world ALREADY knows the truth about him, I am wondering WHY none of the important countries have DONE NOTHING to protect themselves from his LIES,and CONTINUOUS FRAUDULANT ACTS. Either these countries are woefully stupid,or they are COMPLICIT. Perhaps it is the latter,because they have something to gain, in so doing. They are recipients of money that belongs to the TAXPAYERS of this country. It is handed out to these countries like candy,in exchange for their SIGNATURE on the DOTTED LINE. The LOSER is WE THE TAXPAYER.
Old Salt, This is why it was so monumental to Have a main stream character such as Donald Trump voice his opinion on our side. We’ve had so many cowards that claim to be patriots, but when push comes to shove they are wimps. This includes Allen West , Sarah Palin and the rest.
Very curious that FS attacked Trump as rapidly as he did…sheds some light on Leo…

Paxson…………………
When somebody ridicules others, it is either for good reason, or out of a childish need to elevate HIS/HER own imagined self importance which they believe makes them SUPERIOR to all other people.Further this sort of person is the ABSOLUTE LAST PERSON that ANY PLATOON SERGEANT wants to have at any level within his group. It is very likely that such a person would be among the first killed in ANY confrontation with an enemy……………simply because they THINK THAT THEIR OWN WAY IS SUPERIOR to TIME TESTED strategies. In the Navy such a person eventually finds himself re assigned on MONDAY OF EACH WEEK to another command.In addition he is totally ALONE in everything. Nobody will talk with him, socialise with him, or eat with him. This is just one way that the military entities use to get rid of these people. Such people are NOT COHESIVE. To become an accepted member of a FIGHTING FORCE you must be a person of CHARACTER.. Otherwise you are OUT. Like it or not these rules ARE NEVER CHANGED. That is also why “Don’t ask….Don’t tell” …DOESN’T WORK EITHER. Eventually the dimwit is found out, no matter HOW WELL HE/SHE TRIES TO CONCEAL IT. Company COs watch very closely for people who do not fit in. These people are a very real danger to both themselves,as well as the rest of the company. That is the PRIMARY REASON for the “GENERAL DISCHARGE”. This is the spigot through which the UDs of the military forces pass on their way out the door.The same discharge used to be called…….”SECTION EIGHT”or “PSYCHO”.

People who THINK that COALITIONS ARE COMPLICATED AND RARELY STAY TOGETHER show their ignorance. Just what the hell do they think the forces that fought WW2 was called. a coalition then referred to as the Allies, which RECORDED history tells us did stay together, and brought down three illegal,and otherwise abject regimes. Lets see if ANYONE we know can DISPROVE the conclusion of WW2, without making him/or herself into a complete halfwit by attempting to do.
http://www.infowars.com/obama-declares-unconstitutional-war-on-libya/
Obama Declares Unconstitutional War on Libya
Article One, Section Eight of the Constitution reads: “Congress shall have power to … declare War.” Congress did not declare war on Libya. The globalist sock puppet Obama did.
Speaking from Brasilia, Obama said that he had authorized “limited military action in Libya.”
He does not have the authority to call for military action against other countries.
Paxson…………………..
The primary differrence between myself and many others is that, right,wrong or indifferent, I believe what I CHOOSE to believe. If childish people think that their like ridicule will change my mind or otherwise effect me had better rethink what they believe. I wasn’t born yesterday. Most of the time I already know the truth, but sometimes I am WRONG. Frankly I don’t give a damn what others think. Some have chosen to go out in the world and obtain a really great formal education. For this I take my hat off to them. But their book learning, is also JUST THAT. Now they have to go out in the world and RE LEARN what they READ about in the books, combine it, THEN apply it when ASKED, or hired for that purpose. We have a hell of a lot of KNOW IT ALLs who can recite word for word passages from somebody’s book, but can literally do nothing constructively. I guess this is why we have JUDGES, PARALEGALS, and……..lawyers. They have learned to twist,alter, and otherwise ridicule that which someone else believes. Then they try to make it appear that it is the person who they are ridiculing who is the blame.That is straight out of the LIBERAL DEMOCRAT PLAYBOOK. Hubert Humphrey was a PAST MASTER of TWISTING THE WORDS OF OTHERS.Look what it got him. ” I guess we have arrived at the end of the line Murial.”ie(Murial) Hubert Humphrey’s wife. He is alleged to have told her this as they boarded a train back to Minnesota, after he left the VP office.

Our founders would be appalled that a President of the United States could launch the country into an armed conflict half a world away without a formal declaration of war by Congress, much less barely any discussion of it by the House or by the Senate.
Article 1, Section 8, of our Constitution is unambiguous: Only Congress has the authority “to declare war.” James Madison warned that allowing the President to take the country into war would be “too much of a temptation for one man.”
At this point in the warping of our system of checks and balances, a President can wage war almost whenever he feels like it — or at least whenever he can cobble together some “broad coalition,” as Obama put it, or a “coalition of the willing…”
We, as Americans, need to face facts: We have a runaway Executive Branch when it comes to warmaking.
And Obama appears naïve in the extreme on this one.
It is naïve to expect U.S. involvement in this war to be over in “days, not weeks,” as he said.
It is naïve to expect that he can carry this out without using ground troops.
It is naïve to wage war that is not in response to a direct threat to the U.S. national security.
It is naïve to expect millions of Libyans to cheer as their own country is being attacked by Western powers.
It is naïve to expect civilian casualties not to mount as a result of his actions, which he said were designed “to protect Libyan civilians.”
And it is naïve to expect the world to go along with the ruse that this is not a U.S.-led act of aggression.
Finally, Obama’s stated reasons for this war, which he refuses to call by its proper name, are hypocritical and incoherent.
He said “innocent men and women face brutality and death at the hands of their own government.”
That’s true of the people of Yemen, our ally, which just mowed down dozens of peaceful protesters.
That’s true of the people of Bahrain, our ally, which also just mowed down dozens of peaceful protesters.
Then there’s the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, our chief Arab ally and a repressive government in its own right, which just rolled its tanks into Bahrain.
In the Ivory Coast today, another country on good terms with Washington, a dictatorial government is brutalizing its people.
And a brutal junta has ruled the people of Burma for decades now.
There is no consistent humanitarian standard for Obama’s war against Libya. None whatsoever.
Obama has now pushed the United States to a place where we are now engaged in three wars simultaneously.
He’s a man, and we’re a country, that has gone crazy on war.”

Speaking of a “long war,” Colonel Qaddafi said: “We will not leave our land and we will liberate it.”
“We will fight you if you continue your attacks on us,” he Qaddafi said. “Those who are on the land will win the battle,” he declared, warning without explanation that “oil will not be left to the United States, France and Britain.”

Libya: the West and al-Qaeda on the same side
Statements of support for Libya’s revolution by al-Qaeda and leading Islamists have led to fears that military action by the West might be playing into the hands of its ideological enemies.
WikiLeaks cables, independent analysts and reporters have all identified supporters of Islamist causes among the opposition to Col Gaddafi’s regime, particularly in the towns of Benghazi and Dernah.
An al-Qaeda leader of Libyan origin, Abu Yahya al-Libi, released a statement backing the insurrection a week ago, while Yusuf Qaradawi, the Qatar-based, Muslim Brotherhood-linked theologian issued a fatwa authorising Col Gaddafi’s military entourage to assassinate him.
But they also agree that the leading roles in the revolution are played by a similar cross-section of society as that in Egypt next door – liberals, nationalists, those with personal experience of regime brutality and Islamists who subscribe to democratic principles.
The WikiLeaks cables, initially revealed by The Daily Telegraph and dating from 2008, identified Dernah in particular as a breeding ground for fighters in a number of causes, including Afghanistan and Iraq.
“The unemployed, disfranchised young men of eastern Libya have nothing to lose and are therefore willing to sacrifice themselves for something greater than themselves by engaging in extremism in the name of religion,” the cables quoted a Dernah businessman as saying.
bo got ripped for his INCOMPETENCE on Fox and even Meet the Press today. Only support bo has left are the same old MENTALLY DERANGED OBOT PERVERTS

Until I know who will replace Moammar Gadhafi, I will set on the sidelines of Hillary’s war. I believe Obama still would like to see Gadhafi hang on. In any event, it is hard for me to see any honor for our brave soldiers as long as they are following the orders of a fraud.

CAIRO – Hundreds of Islamists hurled stones at secular opposition figure Mohamed ElBaradei as he went to cast his ballot in a referendum in Egypt’s capital on Saturday, an AFP reporter said.
“We don’t want you,” they shouted, forcing the former UN nuclear watchdog chief to retreat to his car and leave, but not before being hit by at least one stone in the back and drenched with water.

Obama’s Foreign Policy Has Failed
He was supposed to change Washington. But the president’s strategy in the Middle East and Afghanistan has lacked courage and creativity—and pales in comparison with Bush’s.
Just over three years ago, acclaimed author and campaign adviser Samantha Power published a memo outlining the foreign policy Barack Obama would pursue if elected president. It was called “Conventional Washington versus the Change We Need.” Power’s argument—aimed straight at then-candidate Hillary Clinton—was that merely replacing George W. Bush with a Democrat would not truly change American foreign policy. It would not truly change American foreign policy because many of Bush’s policies had been supported by “the foreign-policy establishment of both parties,” which remained enthralled to a “bankrupt conventional wisdom.” Obama, she suggested, offered something different. As with his opposition to the Iraq War, he would offer “fresh strategic thinking” undeterred by charges that he was “weak, inexperienced, and even naive.” He represented “a break from a broken way of doing things.”
Obama hired, for the most part, foreign-policy versions of Elena Kagan: ambitious, talented people who have never publicly espoused a truly controversial opinion about anything.
Three years later, measured by the criteria Power laid out, Obama’s foreign policy has failed

http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/beltway-confidential/little-known-fact-obama039s-failed-stimulus-program-cost-more-iraq-war
Expect to hear a lot about how much the Iraq war cost in the days ahead from Democrats worried about voter wrath against their unprecedented spending excesses.
The meme is simple: The economy is in a shambles because of Bush’s economic policies and his war in Iraq. As American Thinker’s Randall Hoven points out, that’s the message being peddled by lefties as diverse as former Clinton political strategist James Carville, economist Joseph Stiglitz, and The Nation’s Washington editor, Christopher Hayes.
The key point in the mantra is an alleged $3 trillion cost for the war. Well, it was expensive to be sure, in both blood and treasure, but, as Hoven notes, the CBO puts the total cost at $709 billion. To put that figure in the proper context of overall spending since the war began in 2003, Hoven provides this handy CBO chart showing the portion of the annual deficit attributable to the conflict:
But there is much more to be said of this data and Hoven does an admirable job of summarizing the highlights of such an analysis:
* Obama’s stimulus, passed in his first month in office, will cost more than the entire Iraq War — more than $100 billion (15%) more.
* Just the first two years of Obama’s stimulus cost more than the entire cost of the Iraq War under President Bush, or six years of that war.
* Iraq War spending accounted for just 3.2% of all federal spending while it lasted.
* Iraq War spending was not even one quarter of what we spent on Medicare in the same time frame.
* Iraq War spending was not even 15% of the total deficit spending in that time frame. The cumulative deficit, 2003-2010, would have been four-point-something trillion dollars with or without the Iraq War.
* The Iraq War accounts for less than 8% of the federal debt held by the public at the end of 2010 ($9.031 trillion).
* During Bush’s Iraq years, 2003-2008, the federal government spent more on education that it did on the Iraq War. (State and local governments spent about ten times more.)
Just some handy facts to recall during coming weeks as Obama and his congressional Democratic buddies get more desperate to put the blame for their spending policies on Bush and the war in Iraq. For more from Hoven, go here.

Public Opinion and Obama’s Failed Leadership on Afghanistan
The Washington Post reports alarming news today on Afghanistan:
Nearly two-thirds of Americans now say the war in Afghanistan is no longer worth fighting, the highest proportion yet opposed to the conflict, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll …
The number of respondents to the Post-ABC News poll who say the war is not worth fighting has risen from 44 percent in late 2009 to 64 percent in the survey conducted last week.
Two-thirds of independents hold that position, according to the poll, and nearly 80 percent said Obama should withdraw a “substantial number” of troops from Afghanistan this summer. Barely more than a quarter of independents say the war is worth its costs, and for the first time a majority feel “strongly” that it is not.
This collapse in public support for the war effort in the nation where the 9/11 attacks were planned has taken place entirely on President Obama’s watch. Note the trend line in this graph:

Stimulus Two Years Later, Networks Ignore Obama’s Failed Job Promise
Just a few years ago, double-digit unemployment seemed like a crazy idea. But when the economy began to stumble, it was fear of high unemployment and a promise to prevent it that the Obama administration used to usher in the $787 billion stimulus package. As The New York Times reported on Oct. 22, 2009, “The Obama administration’s forecast at the start of the year, which predicted that unemployment would not climb much above 8 percent.”
A big promise to be sure and a claim that proved false as unemployment climbed higher and higher reaching 10.2 percent at its peak. Yet, ABC, CBS, and NBC referenced this promise just nine times in two years in stimulus stories mentioning unemployment.
Unemployment still exceeds the Obama-guaranteed 8 percent unemployment rate two years after the bill’s passage. In the same time period, network news barely reported that the stimulus failed to halt the sharp rise in unemployment. ABC ‘World News,’ CBS ‘Evening News’ and NBC ‘Nightly News’ all paid plenty of attention to the stimulus and its accomplishments, but more than 98 percent of those evening broadcast stories skipped over the administration’s failed prediction.

Japan’s Efforts to Ease Nuclear Crisis Hit Setback as Reactors Face Unexpected Rise in Pressure
March 20, 2011 Snips
Growing concerns about radiation add to the overwhelming chain of disasters Japan has struggled with since the 9.0-magnitude quake. The quake spawned a tsunami that ravaged the northeastern coast, killing more than 8,100 people, leaving 12,000 people missing, and displacing another 452,000, who are living in shelters.
Fuel, food and water remain scarce. The government in recent days acknowledged being caught ill-prepared by an enormous disaster that the prime minister has called the worst crisis since World War II.
Bodies are piling up in some of devastated communities and badly decomposing even amid chilly rain and snow. “The recent bodies — we can’t show them to the families. The faces have been purple, which means they are starting to decompose,” says Shuji Horaguchi, a disaster relief official setting up a center to process bodies in Natori, on the outskirts of Sendai. “Some we’re finding now have been in the water for a long time, they’re not in good shape. Crabs and fish have eaten parts.”

G’day, All,
For anyone interested in the latest from Fukushima without the conjecture or hype, here’s the update:
***************************************************
UPDATE AS OF 10:00 A.M. EDT, SUNDAY, MARCH 20:
A two-part operation to spray water into the used fuel pool at Fukushima Daiichi reactor 4 ended just before 7 A.M. EDT. Japan’s defense ministry announced that the Self Defense Force discharged more than 100 tons of water at the pool, and concluded that much of it reached inside the reactor building.
This was the first time since the March 11 quake that reactor 4 has been doused. Yesterday the Tokyo elite fire services used a high-pressure fire truck to spray water for more than 13 hours into the fuel pool of reactor 3.
The ministry also reported conducting surface temperature measurements of reactors 1 through 4 from a helicopter to evaluate the effect of the water discharge operations. The surface temperature of each unit is below 100 degrees Celsius.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. said this morning that pressure within the reactor containment vessel from reactor 3 has begun to stabilize and has decided against an operation to vent gases to reduce pressure inside the containment vessel.
TEPCO is continuing work to restore electricity to reactor 2. A power cable has been connected from a nearby transmission line. TEPCO hopes to have power restored to the reactor’s control room sometime today. Connections to reactors 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are to follow.’
*******************************************************
Let’s hope this continues! Robots and the field team from iRobot in Bedford, MA should be arriving in Japan shortly.

P.S. CW, thanks for letting some of us have a side conversation regarding the horrible events in Japan. Much appreciated :).
I remember as a child when we found out that the scientists themselves were not sure what the results of the first atomic tests in New Mexico would bring –
“An experiment that was unprecedented in the history of humankind. Test predictions ranged from a complete dud, to destruction of the state of New Mexico , to ignition of the atmosphere and incineration of the entire planet (the last result had been calculated to be almost impossible, although for a while it caused some of the scientists some anxiety).”

Mullen says Gadhafi could cling to power
Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staffs, described the campaign’s aims as “limited,” saying it “isn’t about seeing him (Gadhafi) go.” Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Mullen was asked whether it was possible that the mission’s goals could be achieved while leaving Gadhafi in power.
“That’s certainly potentially one outcome,” he replied.
Pressed on this point later in an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Mullen was more vague. “How this ends from the political standpoint, I just can’t say,” Mullen said. He said it was too early to speculate.
“Leading it now, we’re looking to hand off that leadership in the next few days,” Mullen said. “This is a military operation, so that’s got to be done smoothly.”
Obama, in Brazil for a five-day Latin America visit, made clear the U.S. reluctance to take on another war.
Gates was skeptical of getting involved in Libya’s civil war, telling Congress this month that taking out Libya’s air defenses was tantamount to war. Others have worried that the mission could put the U.S. on a slippery slope to deeper involvement in yet another Muslim country — on top of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Hours after Clinton attended an international conference in Paris that endorsed military action against Gadhafi, the U.S. and Britain kicked off their attacks.

Dear Governor Abercrombie:
I am quite certain that you are aware that there is widespread public concern as to whether or not Barack Hussein Obama II is eligible to serve as President in accordance with Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of the U.S. Constitution, which requires that the president-elect be a “natural born Citizen” of the United States of America.

The left is so inconsistent and dangerous. What is their premise? Why Libya? Of all the madmen in all the world, why Gaddafi and not Ahamdinejad? Gaddafi gave up his weapons of mass destruction program. Ahmadinejad is pursuing a catastrophic nuclear weapons fiercely.
Obama said “Our consensus was strong, and our resolve is clear. The people of Libya must be protected.”

Obama’s “Failed” Presidency
The real question, of course, is how you define failure. Obama promised and delivered a big stimulus, though it wasn’t as big as some wanted and was bigger than many thought we could afford. Almost all nonpartisan economists say it helped pull the economy out of recession and created jobs, but the vast majority of Americans don’t believe it for a minute.
The TARP bailout — passed under President Bush but now owned by Obama, who extended it with bailouts of GM, Chrysler and others — is also seen as a success by economists but is absolutely hated by voters. In fact, a vote for TARP is proving a kiss of death for many Republicans and will be trouble in the fall for some Democrats.

Obama also promised health care reform and delivered a bill that his predecessors couldn’t. But liberals are unhappy that Obama abandoned the public option, conservatives see it as a government takeover and the public is understandably confused and will have to wait years to see if it works.

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — A defiant Moammar Gadhafi vowed a “long war” after the U.S. and European militaries blasted his forces with airstrikes and over 100 cruise missiles early Sunday, hitting air defenses and at least two major air bases and shaking the Libyan capital with explosions and anti-aircraft fire.
Despite the strikes, Gadhafi’s troops lashed back, bombarding the rebel-held city of Misrata with artillery and tanks on Sunday, the opposition reported.

Obama Has ‘Failed to Lead’ on Spending Cuts, Democratic Senator Says
Freshman Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin accused President Obama of sitting on the sidelines Tuesday while Congress debates “wildly different” budget bills that are expected to fail.
“Our president has failed to lead this debate or offer a serious proposal for spending and cuts that he would be willing to fight for,” Manchin, D-W.Va., said on the Senate floor

please explain the use of videows from extreme left wing types with regard to the legalities or otherwise of action in Libya.
It seems to me that a certain person spends a lot of time posting stuff from extreme left wing sources like Noam Chomsky.
I belong to the group that sees action in Libya i.e. the enforcement of a no-fly zone as the right thing in the circumstances.
Thousands have already been massacred by the Gadfly and with the threat to Benghazi of the Gadfly showing no mercy it was really imperative that there was action.
In Tripoli people could not leave their homes because the snipers were killing them. In Zawiyah where the people put up a lot of resistance the snipers were doing the same thing. We still do not know the extent of the slaughter that took place in Zawiyah but women and children were murdered by the Gadfly.
It is the same with Brega, Ras Lanuf and other towns. The people took a big beating.
When the UN resolution was finally made the Gadfly had already moved troops to Benghazi. It was the 11th hour. The people there have reported that the shelling of their city by the Gadfly had started. Then the French swooped and took out several Gadfly vehicles.
The French have been leading the way with the action. They need to be able to distinguish between the Freedom Fighters and the Gadfly loyalists.
The action to destroy the Gadfly military aircraft was very necessary. The targets for the missles have been the air defence. Again that is necessary.
The purpose was to stop the Gadfly from bombarding his people. Already most of the military have deserted and he has been using mercenaries from poor nations in Africa, in particular from Mali.
I do not know if these captured mercenaries are being treated humanely. What I do know is that journalists are only safe if they are with the Freedom Fighters. They face capture and imprisonment from Gadfly forces.
oops, that is “videos”, and not what my keyboard wrote.

Obama’s ‘internationalist’ approach has failed
Daniel Henninger at The Wall Street Journal writes a harsh obituary for the internationalist school of dealing with foreign crises. Time and place of death: March 2011, Libya:
Not the 28 members of NATO, not the 15-member U.N. Security Council, not the 22 nations of the Arab League could save Libya’s rebels from being obliterated by the mad and murderous Moammar Gadhafi. The world has just watched the collapse of internationalism.
The world’s self-professed keepers of international order, from Brussels to Turtle Bay, huffed and puffed, talked and threatened. And they failed. Utterly.
But what we’ve watched is not merely the failure of the gauzy notion of “internationalism.” It’s more specific than that. What has collapsed here is the modern Democratic Party’s new foreign-policy establishment.
Barack Obama is the first Democratic president to assemble a foreign-policy team made up entirely of intellectuals who for years have developed a counter-thesis to the policies of presidents extending back to John F. Kennedy. We are in a “post-American world,” they have argued, in which the U.S. is obliged to pursue its interests in concert with the rest of the world’s powers, never alone.
The uprisings against autocracies in 10 separate Middle Eastern countries, a crisis inherited from no one, was their real-world test. In Egypt, they fumbled. In Libya, they have failed.
The poster boy for this internationalist view is White House deputy Ben Rhodes, who told a reporter last week: “This is the Obama conception of the U.S. role in the world — to work through multilateral organizations and bilateral relationships to make sure that the steps we are taking are amplified.”
Days later, bemused Libyan rebel spokesman Essam Gheriani remarked in Benghazi: “Everyone here is puzzled as to how many casualties the international community judges to be enough for them to help. Maybe we should start committing suicide to reach the required number.”

John Boehner to President Obama: Define the mission
“The president is the commander-in-chief, but the administration has a responsibility to define for the American people, the Congress, and our troops what the mission in Libya is, better explain what America’s role is in achieving that mission, and make clear how it will be accomplished,” the Ohio Republican said in a statement. “Before any further military commitments are made, the administration must do a better job of communicating to the American people and to Congress about our mission in Libya and how it will be achieved.”

Actually, your perspective is much closer to Obama’s than those that think that the “no fly zone” is necessary to stop a mass killing. Obama RELUCTANTLY came around to being a proponent of the “no fly zone” out of enormous political political pressure. Ghaddafi is Obama’s ally and Obama would love nothing more than to make sure that Ghaddafi finished off his political opponents for good. Obama’s buddy Louis Farrakhan sent him a coded message reminding him that Ghaddafi helped him get elected.
If Obama was really behind the “no fly zone” he would have come out weeks ago for it. He was forced to back it.
Just like ol’ Louis Farrakhan, Obot FS wants to make sure that Ghaddafi is kept in power through a “killing fields” WMD massacre of his political opponents. Obot FS wants to make sure that Ghaddafi is around to donate more illegal money to the Obama campaign in 2012.
Obot FS is on the same side of the issue as Louis Farrakhan. Imagine that! The more that I pay attention to what FS REALLY says, the more shocked that I am.
Barack Obama certainly is living up to his billing as one poor excuse for a president and an even poorer excuse for a leader.
Much of the Middle East is ablaze in revolution, the thuggery of Libyan strongman Moammar Gadhafi being the highlight of how low megalomaniacs will go to stay in power.
And, of course, the nuclear tragedy unfolding in Japan, following the devastating earthquake and tsunami, is reeling the world.
Then there’s that little matter of a looming government shutdown.
But what’s the leader of the free world been up to?
On Wednesday, Mr. Obama appeared on ESPN to announce his picks for the NCAA basketball tournament.
Earlier in the week, he gave “exclusive” interviews to TV stations from around the country — including Pittsburgh’s KDKA — on “education reform.” (KDKA’s story catapulted pro forma local TV video stenography to news lows.)
Saturday last, when not giving his weekly radio address on the critically important issue of Women’s History Month, Obama was playing golf — reported to be the 61st round of his presidency — joking that it was not “playing” at all but an “investment.”
That was fast on the heels of his riveting summit on “bullying.”
Can you imagine how the mainstream media would have reacted to such disconnected behavior had it been a Republican president?
This isn’t a matter of “optics” but one of judgment. This president is woefully out of touch with reality and how a leader should behave in such trying times. And it’s not just conservatives and Republicans saying it — it’s liberals and Democrats, too, Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia among them.
Asked Fox News Channel’s Glenn Beck, “Has someone hit this man with a stupid stick or a tranquilizer dart?”

Given the fact that obot FS wants to prop up Moammar Ghaddafi by allowing him to slaughter his political opponents, I’m wondering if obot FS also was in favor of the release of the Lockerbie bomber?
Obot FS was a cheerleader for Obama dragging his feet long enough on the “no fly zone” so Obama’s ally Ghaddafi could get the bulk of his killing done and tamp down the revolution.
Obama reluctantly came to the table behind the “no fly zone”, but waited long enough for the signal from Ghaddafi that the real damage was done and it was o.k. to protect himself politically.
Barack Obama, Louis Farrakhan, Moammar Ghaddafi and our very own FS. What a gang of evil mongers.

Obama, Mr. Indecisive, it is too little, too late
Wow, Obama has finally, finally, finally decided to act regarding Libya. He gets no street cred for this. France, the European Union, the Arab League have all been in the forefront while Obama twiddled his thumbs and played golf.
His rationale for why act now is to ’save the civilians.’ Like the civilians haven’t been being murdered over there for more than a month now?! If he’d taken this same stance and decided on these actions a couple of weeks ago… you know, like when the rebels managed to, oh so briefly, gain control of most of the country’s territory, then like the whole situation would have been a whole lot easier with a far rosier outlook than now that Gaddafi has managed to reclaim most of it.
There is the most egregious sort of swill and shill for Obama in an article over at Politico. Oh, Obama had to act because of “visceral fear of a massacre.” Yeah, where was that visceral fear when it was reported back on February 26th that thousands of civilians had been killed? Seems Obama’s fear-o-meter takes as long to get to “visceral” as it does for him to do anything else: a very, very long, waffling, filled with ineptness, time.

for those interested in what is known about the size of the Libyan forces this artcile gives the numbers before and after the uprising:
http://www.theage.com.au/world/blasts-reported-near-gaddafis-home-20110321-1c2kn.html
A majority of the armed services defected and are with the Freedom Fighters.
They are not Al Qaeda. They are not being financed by Iran. Any heavy weapons that they possess have come from the captured weapons stores. Their rag tag army is controlled by former army generals.
The lie about being Al Qaeda has come about because Daffy Duck released the Al Qaeda prisoners back into the community. This was a ploy so that he could make such an unfounded charge against the people.
Another lie is that 48 civilians were killed when the missiles hit. The Freedom Fighters in the hospitals have charged that the Loyalists went to the hospitals and dragged out the dead bodies, and then placed them at the bombing sites in order to discredit the action. It looks like the head of the Arab League has swallowed the lie.
The action against Daffy Duck is the right thing, especially when Daffy is employing mercenaries from Malia to do his dirty work. He offered no mercy to the people in Benghazi and no mercy should be shown to him in return.
Aussie said: “I belong to the group that sees action in Libya i.e. the enforcement of a no-fly zone as the right thing in the circumstances.”
———————————————————————————————
Thanks for the clarity Aussie. It doesn’t surprise me that obot FS degraded you for taking a position that will help save the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of people. Obot FS takes the same position as Louis Farrakhan in trying to prop up Obama ally Ghaddafi. Even more curious, based on the links that obot FS is endorsing is the fact that it is difficult to find out where he stands on anything. The one “theme” is that he says that the “no fly zone” is worthless and he essentially supports the same position as Farrakhan and Obama (by his footdraggin) in allowing Ghaddafi to push down the revolution to remove him. Obama is friends of Ghaddafi and doesn’t really want the ‘no fly zone’ either.
Which brings me back to thinking about the Gulf Oil spill. His alarmism is exactly what Obama desired in having a political excuse to essentially all but halt drilling in our country.
When you read between the lines on issue by issue, FS takes a position that benefits Obama even while he is screaming the loudest against others who disagree. It is a form of psychological warfare that has the end results in mind.
Calling Trump loony and trying to discredit him after coming out as one of the most well known mainstream people to question Obama’s “nativity story” really got me thinking about FS and the positions that he holds that all benefit Obama in a descrete manner.

Libya strike came too late, some politicians say
“He waited too long, there is no doubt in my mind about it,” said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. “But now, it is what it is. And we need, now, to support him and the efforts that our military are going to make. And I regret that it didn’t — we didn’t act much more quickly, and we could have.”
McCain’s remarks came in an interview taped Friday and airing Sunday on CNN’s State of the Nation.
McCain, the top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said if the United States had taken action two weeks ago, “a no-fly zone would probably have been enough. Now, a no-fly zone is not enough. There needs to be other efforts made.”
McCain quickly ruled out ground troops — either by the U.S. or its allies — but said the Navy should move an aircraft carrier to the Mediterranean Sea. The nearest carrier, the USS Enterprise, is in the Arabian Sea.
Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said criticism that American forces were acting too late was “speculation.”
“I don’t know that going two weeks ago would have turned things one way or another,” he said on NBC’s Meet the Press. He said it was important to have the support of the United Nations Security Council and allies in place.
The Arab League supported a no-fly zone a week prior to the airstrikes, and the Security Council authorized it Thursday.
Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., said later on Meet the Press that he’s worried the airstrikes could be “too little, too late.”
“Had it been done several weeks ago, we’d be in better shape than we are today,”

Statements of support for Libya’s revolution by al-Qaeda and leading Islamists have led to fears that military action by the West might be playing into the hands of its ideological enemies. WikiLeaks cables, independent analysts and reporters have all identified supporters of Islamist causes among the opposition to Col Gaddafi’s regime, particularly in the towns of Benghazi and Dernah. An al-Qaeda leader of Libyan origin, Abu Yahya al-Libi, released a statement backing the insurrection a week ago, while Yusuf Qaradawi, the Qatar-based, Muslim Brotherhood-linked theologian issued a fatwa authorising Col Gaddafi’s military entourage to assassinate him.

So which is it FS, was it implemented too late or should it not be implemented at all? You just accused Aussie of “being an obot” becaus she said that she supported the “no fly zone”. Now you ENDORSING links that say that it should have been done sooner, yet none of them say that it should still no be done at all. What do you believe? Do you just sit there in your underwear all day posting every single link that you read?
People, start reading between the lines of what FS endorses in his posts and what he accuses others of endorsing. First of all you will find that nearly all of the time, FS’s position benefits Obama in the long run. Secondly, you’ll find that he posts a ton of cr.p.

I hear what you are saying in “be careful what you wish for as you just might get it.” But this isn’t what FS was alluding to as he never mentioned it once, but I’m sure that he will poach your rationale in order to bring out his obot card.

President Barack Obama is rushing to roll out a new economic plan this week, but his fellow Democrats are confronting a difficult question: Is it too little, too late?
On one hand, Obama used a Labor Day speech in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to suggest he wasn’t rattled about the economic crisis that might wipe out Democratic majorities in the House and Senate in less than two months.
“Now, the plain truth is, there’s no silver bullet or quick fix to the problem,” he said.

It is not just putting up something from the far left goon Chomsky, it is also putting up the video from the far left Helen Caldicott who knows nothing about nuclear energy and proclaiming her as an expert on the subject.
This no fly zone was proposed by David Cameron and Nicholas Sarkozy. KRUDD the former Australian Prime Minister and now Foreign Minister advocated for the no fly zone. The mission so far has seen the air defence system knocked out, and the French have bombed Daffy Duck Loyalists heading to Benghazi.
Daffy Duck’s military is depleted. He has about 5 000 loyalists and he is paying very poor people from Mali to do the killing.
The Freedom Fighters in Tripoli have been in lockdown. When the truth emerges, you will probably find that the numbers killed by Daffy Duck in Tripoli, Zawiyah, Brega, Ras Lanuf and other towns are in their thousands. Many have disappeared and journalists have been arrested.
The no fly zone should have been agreed weeks ago, and I and if there was a need to have got the permission of Congress then that should have been done a month ago.
It was the all options are on the table approach that showed dithering and was complete and utter B.S. in my opinion.

Serious Doubts Raised About Obama’s War In Libya
On Saturday, President Obama while visiting Brazil launched a United Nations war without obtaining Congressional approval. We all must remember how the left crucified President George W. Bush over a 9 month debate concerning war with Iraq. This debate included multiple UN Resolutions and a Multi-National Force composed of dozens of nations. Many refer to this time of debate as a “rush to war.” Yesterday however, President Obama approved the launch of Tomahawk missiles effectively engaging us in a Libyan civil war. This decision came with no debate in Congress and one UN Resolution that was only voted on 48 hours before. Political Analyst Larry Sabato today tweeted his opinion on causes given for our military action stating, “I’ve never heard such a muddle of half-explanations and weak reassurances on Sunday talk shows–& this was from #Libya adventure BACKERS.” Dick Morris stated, “The time to define mission goals is before bombs fall not after. What is our goal in Libya? Obama has no idea!” Andrew Sullivan at “The Atlantic” said, This adm is willing to throw out its entire strategy and principles..in defense of rebels about whom we know almost nothing.” House Speaker John Boehner released his first statement on the U.S. attacks on Libya expressing his approval for the actions taken, but demands, “the Administration must do a better job of briefing members of Congress and communicating to the American people about our mission in Libya and how it will be achieved.” Below is Speaker Boehner’s statement:
“The United States has a moral obligation to stand with those who seek freedom from oppression and self-government for their people. It’s unacceptable and outrageous for Qadhafi to attack his own people, and the violence must stop.
The President is the commander-in-chief, but the Administration has a responsibility to define for the American people, the Congress, and our troops what the mission in Libya is, better explain what America’s role is in achieving that mission, and make clear how it will be accomplished. Before any further military commitments are made, the Administration must do a better job of briefing members of Congress and communicating to the American people about our mission in Libya and how it will be achieved.”
To read more about Boehner’s statement go to washingtonexaminer.com
We are now beginning to see doubts arise over the outcome of the conflict in which we are now engaged. On “Face the Nation” today, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen acknowledged that there was a possibility that the conflict could end in a stalemate and that the length of the military action could not be foreseen.
A RATIONAL person would consider the fact that it would benefit Obama if his CIA suddenly began floating stories that al Quada was involved in the revolution so Obama can protect his “brother” Moammar Gaddafi. The same Moammar Gaddafi that Obama conspired with to release the Lockerbie bomber to. The same Moammar Gaddafi who helped fund the “Friends of Obama” monies that went to Odinga in Kenya.

My Letter to Bob Unruh of WorldNetDaily
March 13, 2011 by paralegalnm
The ‘left’ has corrupted the law to promote odd ‘equal protections,’ and ‘citizenship at birth’ for children of illegals, for purposes of a larger agenda.
In the 1940s, the communists had infiltrated the unions, creating a crisis over concerns that the communist party (controlled by foreign countries) would use the ‘strike’ for political purposes, rather than industrial democracy. The result has been rampant illegal immigration, communist and Muslim fronts established in the United States in open opposition to the U.S. Constitution, the wholesale murder of unborn children, undermining of private property by taxation and unconstitutional ‘takings,’ Gay Marriage, and a president born not only of an alien, non-citizen father, but of a heritage of hatred for Western civilization, and admittedly a socialist and Muslim ‘sympathizer.’
In other words, the dilution of the U.S. Constitution, U.S. Sovereignty, and a Denial of Christian Values and Family.
In the Schneiderman case (320 U.S. 118; 63 S. Ct. 1333; 87 L. Ed. 1796; 1943 U.S. LEXIS 1110), the court blocked a challenge to the admission of an avowed, radical communist organizer into the United States, and his successful naturalization as a U.S. citizen. In that case, the court violated the legislature’s enumerated, plenary powers over naturalization law, claiming an Article III power over ‘cases and controversies’ determining citizenship.
Pa.Com.Pl. 1947. The Christian religion is a part of the common law. Scranton Broadcasters, Inc., v. American Communications Ass’n, CIO, Broadcast Dist. No. 1, 48 Lack.Jur. 241.
What an interesting holding, especially in the face of the surge of communist organization (see Obama as ‘community organizer’). The Taft-Hartley Act and the National Labor Relations Board were battling communism . . . which, unlike normal society working each day for their families and communities, was a world-wide and foreign-funded movement intent on destroying the American Way of Life.
If that case was followed in our highest court, Abortion would not be justified by an antiquated English wives’ tale called the Quickening, but Exodus 22:23 (cited but glossed over by Justice Blackmun). Cf. the almost religious ‘all or nothing thinking’ of the courts in perpetuating English common law ‘jus solis’ citizenship, flying in the face of the 1790, 1795 et seq Uniform Naturalization Acts sole reliance on ‘jus sanguinis.’
The Protestant Reformation returned the Christian religion to the People, taking it away from the Priest, the Papacy, and Potentates . . . which resulted in the emigration of Religious Freedom to the Shores of the New World . . . America. From Miles Standish to Roger Williams, and William Penn . . . to the Founding Fathers . . . a new nation was formed of such vitality in the individual freedom bred into its very soul by the precepts of individual conscience, i.e., the Golden Rule, that it quickly became the most powerful nation in the world, in every aspect of society. We quickly became the leader in economic wealth, standard of living, legal process, military might, and influencing business through the English language and technology.
Just as a virus feeds off a host until it kills it, the communists wish to sap that strength for their own aggrandizement.
What we see in Wisconsin, our National Debt, the undermining of Marriage, the destruction of Education through Unionization, and Illegal Immigration and an Ineligible President of the United States are the debilitating symptoms caused by a deep, underlying Infection . . . Socialism and the World Communist Agenda, . . . and its willing partner, the dar al-Islam of the Muslim religion.
The new Republican governor of New Mexico is fighting, and so close to success, in voiding tens of thousands of drivers licenses issued to illegal aliens. The premise for that policy is to increase purchase of automobile liability insurance (it is said half of drivers in New Mexico drive without it anyway), however the end result is enough illegal aliens voting in state and federal elections to void the interests of the legal polity. In other words, U.S. and New Mexican sovereignty has been undermined and destroyed in this Southwestern state. In addition, that policy allows license holders to move across state lines and dilute sovereignty across the United States.
Emerich de Vattel, in his treatise on ‘Laws of Nations,’ admonished any nation who remained silent in the face of undue foreign influence and incursion, stating plainly that if the people did not speak up, they deserved to lose their sovereignty!
Following is the referenced quote from Vattel. We have allowed enemies of our Society to immigrate, namely Muslims and Communists. In fact, Barack Hussein Obama is the son of an alien enemy of our state, a Muslim and Communist, and we elected him President of the United States, in direct conflict and violation with Article II.
§ 199. How the right of the nation protected is lost by its silence.
But if the nation that is protected, or that has placed itself in subjection on certain conditions, does not resist the encroachments of that power from which it has sought support — if it makes no opposition to them — if it preserves a profound silence, when it might and ought to speak — its patient acquiescence becomes in length of time a tacit consent that legitimates the rights of the usurper. There would be no stability in the affairs of men, and especially in those of nations, if long possession, accompanied by the silence of the persons concerned, did not produce a degree of right. But it must be observed, that silence, in order to show tacit consent, ought to be voluntary. If the inferior nation proves that violence and fear prevented its giving testimonies of its opposition, nothing can be concluded from its silence, which therefore gives no right to the usurper.

This whole thing with FS’s assault on Donald Trump really has me looking at what FS endorses in his news articles and what he says when he battles those who disagree with him. Start to read between the lines with what he says. Could he be in deep cover to pretend to be a “patriot” screaming the loudest in his accusations against others, but when you read what he really supports it always benefits Obama?
@ Zach, consider the source of the article. It is the Telegraph. and not all that reliable. That being said, consider this:
Daffy Duck locked up some Al Qaeda operatives and then around the time that the protests started he released them. Then to justify the murder of people in the city of Zawiyah he claims that they are thugs and members of Al Qaeda. Really?
When the people in Benghazi successfully breached the barracks in their town, they were met by the interior minister and an army unit. A fight ensued ? No. These men had defected and joined the protest. Was the former interior minister a member of Al Qaeda? I do not think so, and neither were the members of the army that have also defected.
The people in Benghazi and in Zawiyah made sure that the journalists who have spoken to them got out the message that they are not Al Qaeda. It is insulting to them to have Daffy’s lie spread like wildfire.
That being said, Al Qaeda is an enemy of Daffy Duck, which means a statement from the leadership supporting the Freedom Fighters should be seen in its proper context.
What would be of concern to me, however, would be Al Qaeda showing up and taking a military stance in Libya, and with their anti-West attitude, they could decide to take on France and the UK because they are the ones that really pushed the no-fly zone.
The leadership of the Freedom Fighters requested the no-fly zone weeks ago. They have shown themselves to be pro-West rather than anti-west. They have not shown signs of being Islamists but when they get excited they cry “Allah Akbar”, which needs to be placed in context of their religious affiliation.
There are Libyans who are the opposite of the Freedom Fighters, and yes this group are more than likely Al Qaeda. However, they have not been in charge of the fight against Daffy Duck.

In my opinion, a good 2/3 of these posts could be eliminated (as they have little value) so that the rest of us could see what’s here and comment.
Sigh.

MR. GREGORY: And I, and I want to get more into that, but I want to just say, 25 years ago, Richard Haass, Chernobyl was the meltdown in that Time magazine cover. But again, confluence of crisis. For any president, this is a lot to manage at one time.
MR. RICHARD HAASS: It’s a lot to manage, but also it raises the importance of an administration having its priorities. You’ve got a lot to manage with Japan, you’ve got a lot to manage with what’s going on in the broader Middle East, you’ve got a lot to manage what’s going on in the United States in terms of our economy and our deficit. So one of the real questions is why are we doing as much are we are doing in Libya? So many of your guests are talking about too little too late. Let me give you another idea, David, too much too late. In times of crisis and multiple crisis, administrations have to figure out their priorities. They got to do some triage. The–to me, the big problem is not what we haven’t done, it is what we are doing.
MR. GREGORY: General Hayden, what are your concerns and your thoughts right now as you’re watching this unfold?
GEN. MICHAEL HAYDEN (Retired): Well, I, I think what the folks that I used to serve with in the armed forces in the intelligence community are, are wondering is, “How do I know when I’m done? What, what, what constitutes accomplishing this mission?” I mean, we can say this is for humanitarian purposes, we can say it’s a no-fly zone; but, in reality, what we have done is intervene in a Libyan civil war. We now own a moral responsibility for the outcome.
MR. GREGORY: Richard, you, you just have broad concerns as you, as you penned a piece in the Wall Street Journal earlier this month, “The US should keep out of Libya.”
MR. HAASS: Again, our interests aren’t vital. We’re talking about 2 percent of the world’s oil. Yes, there’s a humanitarian situation on, but at the risk of seeming a bit cold, it is not a humanitarian crisis on the scale say of Rwanda. We don’t have nearly 100–a million people, innocent men, women and children whose lives are threatened. This is something much more modest. This is a civil war. In civil wars, people get killed, unfortunately. But we shouldn’t kid ourselves. This is not a humanitarian intervention, this is U.S. political, military intervention in a civil conflict which, by the way, history suggests, often prolongs the civil conflict. And, as several people have already pointed out, what is step B? Whether Gadhafi complies with what we want or whether he resists successfully, either way, we are going to be stuck with the aftermath of essentially having to take ownership of Libya with others. And just because others are willing to share in something, as so many people point out, doesn’t make it a better policy. It just means the costs are going to be distributed. But the policy itself is seriously flawed.
MR. GREGORY: Well, and General Hayden, you said that this notion of a no-fly zone is–how do you describe it? Should not be the focus.
GEN. HAYDEN: Right, right. No. I mean, look, it wasn’t the Libyan air force that was causing problems. It was the preponderance of ground power that Gadhafi could bring to bear. And so stopping them flying doesn’t solve anything.
MR. GREGORY: No. It’s so we can bomb them from their airspace, right? If they start to move on the ground.
GEN. HAYDEN: We have–we have to do. But I found it striking that your reporter from Tobruk said that the reaction of the opposition to this was they’re putting their helmets back on, buttoning their chin straps…
MR. GREGORY: Yeah.
GEN. HAYDEN: …and going back on the offensive. Now, what kind of dilemma policywise does that present us with if now it’s the opposition on the move taking on Gadhafi’s forces?
MR. GREGORY: All right. Now I want to get a quick break in here. We’re going to come back and talk about this and some of the bigger questions about what comes next. More with our roundtable as the situation in Libya unfolds right after this.
MR. GREGORY: We’re back.
Richard Haass, let me pick up with you. The issue that was on the table is, what if now the opposition feels emboldened, and they’re now on the move, and civil war starts again? What position does that put us in?
MR. HAASS: Well, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
Advertise | AdChoices
MR. GREGORY: Yeah.
MR. HAASS: And we don’t know what the political agenda of these people are. The tribal makeup of Libya is so complex. I hope that the people making the decisions in the administration have a real feel for what is going on and what are going to be the political agendas of the people we may be now empowering. But the one thing we know is that this thing now has a new lease on life. And what might have burned out is not going to, if you will, be rekindled. This is now going to be a prolonged civil war. And at some point we’re going to have to decide new forms of intervention. It’s not going to stop here, David. It’s not going to end with simply the United States shooting off some Tomahawks or doing some aircraft runs. This is going to require, ultimately, the one thing the administration says it probably doesn’t want to do, boots on the ground. Someone is going to have to provide that kind of involvement in Libya because this is a country that is going to be fundamentally divided with places people are killing each other and places the government is not in control of.
MR. GREGORY: But, Jim, is that fair? I mean, General Hayden, I had a member of the Bush administration say to me candidly, look, can you imagine if Sarkozy was in power in 2002 as we were starting the Iraq War. You really do have the French and the British leading on this. As the senator has pointed out, the Arab League swinging behind this here. It’d be difficult, Gadhafi may try, but to make this a unilateral U.S. effort here.
GEN. HAYDEN: Oh, no. and I, I don’t think anyone’s saying that we should. But let’s look at why people are doing these things. I think the Arab League move was quite remarkable, frankly. But with our European friends, I mean, this is about cold, hard facts. This is about mass migration. They, they have a direct interest here that they have to protect. It’s no wonder that they had a greater sense of urgency about this than we did.
MR. GREGORY: The big ideas and are we getting them right?
MR. HAASS: Mike Mullen says the big idea, the biggest single national security threat facing the United States is our economy, it’s our fiscal situation. This will not make it better. Instead, we are ignoring a previous secretary of state, John Quincy Adams, someone you haven’t had on the show in awhile. We are going abroad in search of monsters to destroy. There’s any number of monsters. But is this, right now, something that’s strategically necessary and vital for the United States, given all that’s happening in places like Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, around the world, with all that we need to repair at home? The answer, I would think, is not. And that’s the big idea the administration’s missing. It’s not enough to simply want to do good around the world wherever we see bad. We’ve got to ask ourselves, where can we do good, at what cost, against what else we might have to do?

Your cockamamie accusation saying that we supported the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has one giant hole that you could drive a truck through. ..go back and read my remarks at the time. In fact. I was the one who brought William Ayers and Code Pinks involvement to this blog.
Just like a true Marxist and Muslim, obot FS will tell an easily disprovable lie and repeat it over and over again, whitewashing the facts of the past in order to control the present. … does he not think that people here are smart enough to figure him out?
http://www.rolandsmartin.com/blog/index.php/2011/03/17/trump-says-he-has-doubts-about-obamas-birth-place/
Donald Trump, the business mogul who continues to claim he is seriously interested in mounting a bid for the White House, says he has doubts about whether President Obama was born in the United States.
In an interview with ABC, Trump said he finds it strange “nobody knew” Obama as a young child in Hawaii.
“Let me tell you, I’m a really smart guy. I was a really good student at the best school in the country. The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him,” Trump said in the interview that aired Thursday.
“If I got the nomination, if I decide to run, you may go back and interview people from my kindergarten. They’ll remember me. Nobody comes forward. Nobody knows who he is until later in his life. It’s very strange,” the Celebrity Apprentice host added. “The whole thing is very strange.”

Mr. Donald Trump, Personal
Trump Organization
725 Fifth Avenue
New York, NY 10022
Dear Mr. Trump,
It never occurred to me in my life I would be sending you a letter. Until recently, there was nothing in each of our lives to have anything to say to each other.
As a matter of fact there is no reason that you would ever have to communicate with me. You see, Mr. Trump I am not fabulously rich, super successful at anything, very famous, vitally important, own any thing of interest to you and I AM NO LONGER YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL. In fact, the best I can say is I am an invisible American citizen who has achieved nothing more than raising her family, earning her own living, purchasing my home, and living responsibly and honorably.
Why would you be receiving a letter from some one like me?
Though you do not plan to announce your presidential candidacy until June, I believe you will choose to run. Chances are very good you will get the Republican nomination and you will be running against Obama in 2012. Honestly, in my humble opinion, I believe your chances of winning are very good. When you run, you will be asking for something from me. My vote! This is why I am writing to you now.
Among your considerations for deciding to run for president must be your platform. What will be the CENTER PIECE OF YOUR PLATFORM? What will you tell America is the highest and best reason to vote for you and no one else?
In order to defeat Obama, you must look better, be brighter, and be more pro-America, constitution, free enterprise and capitalism than Obama. You must also look better than all the sniffing and wagging presidential hopefuls planning to step into the presidential arena. If your platform is basically the same as all the other sniveling cowards—then you have said or done nothing new or different. You won’t pass my acid test. YOU WILL NOT GET MY VOTE!
You are astutely aware how dangerously close “we the people” are about to lose the United States Republic of America under God (not Allah) protected by the greatest contract ever written—The US Constitution. As I write the Constitution is being violated and ripped to shreds every day by this “regime”.
You have made it abundantly clear you don’t like the direction this current regime is taking America. I and millions of voting Americans agree with you. This is why if you or who ever runs against Obama in 2012 must be certain to win. Who ever wins must be exceptionally wise, extremely honorable, forged in the hottest fires to be strong, fearlessly single minded, so patriotic and loving of America that nothing can separate him from placing country, duty and obedience to the oath . . .to protect and honor the Constitution from enemies within and with out above his career and all else.
We already know the basic issues your competitors will be touting. America’s housing needs a boost; our energy resources must become less dependent upon foreign lands. Americans needs jobs. Travelers need to be protected from having their genitals groped at air ports in the false name of “for your protection.” America knows its borders need to be secured. The UN is a disaster. NAFTA has hurt America. The Federal Reserve sucks. America must get out of foreign wars and create better more workable foreign policies. Government needs to get out of the education business. Obama is trying to convert America from a Christian/Judeo country to a Socialist/Fascist/Muslim-under-Sharia-law land. The stimulus is a failure. The banks are making very few loans. These and more will be what the snake oil candidates will be saying while imagining themselves so clever and we the people so dumb. The yadda, yadda goes on. That’s what so. So what? You, Mr. Trump must do what your competition is too frightened to do.
There is only one issue and only one issue for any presidential hopeful to put forward. OBAMA IS NOT OUR LEGITIMATE PRESIDENT UNDER THE NBC CLAUSE OF THE CONTSTITUTION. REMOVE HIM ON THAT BASIS AND ALL HIS POISON POLICIES WILL BECOME NULL AND VOID. ONCE THAT IS RESOLVED, AMERICA WILL IMMEDIATELY BEGIN TO HEAL AND RESTORE IT SELF UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF AN ASTUTE BUSINESS MAN SUCH AS YOUR SELF. A GREAT MANY EXISTING PROBLEMS WILL DIMINISH. THERE IS NO BETTER OR OTHER STRATEGY THAN THAT.
Forgive me while I put forward my argument:
A is A or Don’t Put the Cart before the Horse!
IF THE TREE IS POISON, SO IS THE FRUIT. So why would destroy the fruit and not the tree?
If the foundation is cracked or askew, so will be the structure. So why would the structure continue to be built without first correcting the foundation?
If the POTUS is not legal, so follows all his policies and every action he makes. So why any one would ignore the POTUS and simply focus on his illegal policies. Isn’t that putting the cart before the horse? THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT CONGRESS, SENATE, THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM, MAIN STREAM MEDIA, AND THE REST OF THE POLITICAL WHORES ARE DOING.
If a presidential candidate avoids confronting the NBC issue of Obama for fear of ridicule and not being elected—THEN HOW IS HE GOING TO STAND UP TO CHINA, RUSSIA, THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, THE UNIONS, OR ANY OTHER DECISION THAT DEMANDS COURAGE AND FEARLESSNESS? HE ISN’T WORTHY OF THE JOB. He/she will not get my vote. HE’S FIRED!
If any candidate hopeful ignores this primary issue—with the false logic:
“Obama’s eligibility is not a very important issue. Therefore it is far better to focus upon his policies”
—then that hopeful is clearly in the process of FLIM FLAMMING, SHUCKIN & JIVEN, AND ATTEMPTING TO CON THE PUBLIC. HE IS ALSO COMPLICIT IN OBAMA’S GREAT COVER UP SCANDAL. It is one more example of the Emperor and His new suit of clothes—and not one political leader with the stones to call the emperor NAKED.
IT IS DISRESPECTUL AND DEMEANINNG TO BE ASKED FOR OUR VOTE BY THESE COWARDS WHILE WE WITNESS THEIR DENIAL, AVOIDANCE, OBFUSCATION AND DENIGRATION OF PATIROTS BEGGING THOSE IN POWER TO CONFRONT OBAMA REGARDING HIS CONCEALED DOCUMENTS. If they lie and avoid this issue, what other areas are they willing to deceive us?
The great November 2010 “shellacking” Obama claimed he got has turned into another useless Congress of elected officials working hard protecting their careers instead of their country. Look at Scott Brown, the Rino. What has the forked tongue Daryl Issa accomplished? Rugged John Boehner claims Barry was born in Hawaii, is a Christian and there are more important issues than Bo’s eligibility. Huckabee wants to praise Michelle Obama for telling people what to eat. Sarah Palin sold out to Fox news partly owned by Prince Al Aweed. She simply avoids the issue. Mitt Romney ignores the issue. New Gingrich validates Obama as president. Ron and Rand Paul are afraid to confront Obama’s legitimacy for fear of being ridiculed out of their careers. Judge Napolitano who presents a program based upon the constitution HAS NEVER CONFRONTED THE NATURAL BORN CITIZEN REQUIREMENT TO BE PRESIDENT IN THE CONSTITUTION. Allen—talk tough—West advises people there are more important issues than Obama’s birth certificate! The cover up continues.
What do you think these alleged leaders look like in the eyes of millions of citizens who sincerely and rightfully want to know who this cheap shot punk really is?
Efforts to bring this controversy to court have met with dismissal after dismissal based upon “lack of standing” and not the merits of the facts. It appears judges were either bribed, intimidated or both. Main stream media has consistently refrained from all important discussion of the subject and simply suppressed most information about it. The White House approach in dealing with the issue is to use Saul Alinsky tactics of ridicule and denigration of any one or group who seriously is concerned with Obama’s legality under our Constitution. The demeaning word is “birther”. The United States Supreme court has simply refused to hear cases that have been brought to them regarding Hussein’s eligibility.
Millions of Americans and people all over the world know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Obama is a usurper and is bribing, intimidating, judges, Governors, Congress, Senate and the press to suppress the evidence, look the other way, or simply insult legitimate investigation regarding Barry’s citizenship. He has suppressed all his records from school, to law practice to birth certificate (the COLB is a proven forgery). He has spent millions keeping this out of court. Now he has grown so cocky, he’s making jokes about it.
Soon, you will be presenting your self as a candidate. You stated you would be willing to spend six hundred million of your own money to purchase the position of US President. Obama’s thugs raised and spent over ONE BILLION DOLLARS TO BUY THE EMPTY SUIT THE PRESIDENCY in 2007. They are already talking about raising another Billion dollars and probably more for a second term. Therefore, Mr. Trump, you will have to raise an additional ONE BILLION DOLLARS TO DEFEAT HIM AND MAKE YOURSELF STAND OUT AS THE BRAVEST, CAN’T-BE-BOUGHT-BRIBED-OR-INTIMATED CANDIDATE IN AMERICA. NOTHING WILL PROVE IT MORE THAN IF YOU CONFRONT OBAMA’S USURPATION HEAD ON.
The candidate who fearlessly and openly challenges Obama’s eligibility will not only become a national and international hero, he will become the next president of the United States.
Mr. Trump, would it be possible for you to get a new hair style if you run for president? You not only must have the big bucks to run—YOU MUST LOOK PRESIDENTIAL.
Respectfully,
This is an open letter that will be e-mailed to my long personal list, published on several web sites with permission for others to post this on their web sites, too.
SueQ was banned? That is unfortunate considering the fact that FS has provoked every person on this blog at one time or another by calling them an obot. I would think that asking about the details of his case that FS wears like a badge of honor is fairly benign. If you love our country as much as I suspect That most of us who post here do, one would take the insult of being called an obot the biggest slime that you could come up with. FS has called us all obots and it is the thing ultimately drove me against him and begin to ponder who was the actual provacateur in his own case that we all were worried about him at the time. TALK ABOUT KICKING YOUR FRIENDS IN THE NUTS, BECAUSE THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT FS HAS DONE TO THOSE OF US WHO CARED ABOUT HIS PREDICAMENT AT THE TIME..
BOY, WEREN’T THOSE FEELINGS OF WORRY MISPLACED? BECAUSE WHEN HE GOT HERE…BOY OH BOY….WEREN’T WE SURPRISED TO SEE WHO THE CANTANKEROUS HUMAN BEING THAT WE CARED ABOUT WAS?
what did we get in return? A kick in the nuts and being slurred as obots….
Sorry to see you go SueQ. Hope that your husband’s cancer goes into remission. …I know you are going through a lot.

Okay, after reading here for a couple of days I have concluded one thing is certain concerning our most prominent poster: CONFUSION, CONFUSION Whether this is intentional or just plain stupidity, I am not sure. I lean heavily towards the former, because of the nature of the posts he makes after being “outed”.
If I were new here, I would have to conclude that this poster has no real position himself but delights in copying everything he can find re. the subject at hand, regardless of the source. Recently he posted a large segment of an article from an openly stated “progressive” website. Such an article immediately raises my alert antennae, because I know that it is, no doubt, biased. Presenting the views of Noam Chomsky is of the same ilk.
It is one thing to have differing viewpoints, which creates good, sensible debate, but it is way off the wall to haphazardly post repeatedly one contradictory view after another that seems to have one goal only – to confuse. That can only benefit the enemy! That can only benefit Obama and those who want to decimate good, patriotic, effective blogs like CW’s has been. That can only discourage sincere readers and commenters.
Even the Lib demRats rip bo’s Wag the Dog Stunt
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0311/51595.html
A hard-core group of liberal House Democrats is questioning the constitutionality of U.S. missile strikes against Libya, with one lawmaker raising the prospect of impeachment during a Democratic Caucus conference call on Saturday.
Reps. Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.), Donna Edwards (Md.), Mike Capuano (Mass.), Dennis Kucinich (Ohio), Maxine Waters (Calif.), Rob Andrews (N.J.), Sheila Jackson Lee (Texas), Barbara Lee (Calif.) and Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D.C.) “all strongly raised objections to the constitutionality of the president’s actions” during that call, said two Democratic lawmakers who took part.
Kucinich, who wanted to bring impeachment articles against both former President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney over Iraq — only to be blocked by his own leadership — asked why the U.S. missile strikes aren’t impeachable offenses.
Kucinich also questioned why Democratic leaders didn’t object when President Barack Obama told them of his plan for American participation in enforcing the Libyan no-fly zone during a White House Situation Room meeting on Friday, sources told POLITICO.
And liberals fumed that Congress hadn’t been formally consulted before the attack and expressed concern that it would lead to a third U.S. war in the Muslim world.
While other Democratic lawmakers have publicly backed Obama — including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and top members of the Armed Services, Foreign Affairs and Intelligence committees — the objections from a vocal group of anti-war Democrats on Capitol Hill could become a political problem for Obama, especially if “Operation Odyssey Dawn” fails to topple Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi, leads to significant American casualties, or provokes a wider conflict in the troubled region of North Africa.
(Pelosi did not participate in Saturday’s call; she is in Afghanistan to meet with U.S. military and diplomatic officials.)
U.S. warships fired more than 100 Tomahawk cruise missles on Saturday in a bid to knock out Libya’s air-defense systems, targeting command-and-control and radar units near Tripoli, the Libyan capital, and the city of Misurata, according to Pentagon officials and media reports. French aircraft attacked armored units loyal to Qadhafi around the city of Benghazi after they ignored international calls for a cease-fire.
Saturday’s conference call was organized by Rep. John Larson (Conn.), chairman of the Democratic Caucus and the fourth-highest ranking party leader. Larson has called for Obama to seek congressional approval before committing the United States to any anti-Qadhafi military operation.
“They consulted the Arab League. They consulted the United Nations. They did not consult the United States Congress,” one Democrat lawmaker said of the White House. “They’re creating wreckage, and they can’t obviate that by saying there are no boots on the ground. … There aren’t boots on the ground; there are Tomahawks in the air.”
“Almost everybody who spoke was opposed to any unilateral actions or decisions being made by the president, and most of us expressed our constitutional concerns. There should be a resolution and there should be a debate so members of Congress can decide whether or not we enter in whatever this action is being called,” added another House Democrat opposed to the Libyan operation.

********************************
Thanks again, Suek, for all of your excellent input re. the nuclear situation. Also, Aussie……. As you know, I haven’t been on the conputer for very long compared with the rest of you. Lately when I come here and there are so many comments I get the spinning beachball (Mac’s way of telling me he doesn’t “like” the way things are.) I can eventually get rid of it but wonder if it isn’t a forerunner of a “crash”? Does anyone know? It would be very helpful if there was a limit, of sorts, on how many posts one could make in a given time.
Sorry, “conputer” s/b “computer”.

SueQ left me a message to say hi and that she was banned because she asked a question about the circumstance of that arrest. It was a question that many who were not around when it happened would have because of the hints that have been thrown out. It would have been better to have given an objective response which would have stasfied SueQ.
==================================
The last I knew, she had not been banned, per se, but just got smacked hard by CW himself for goring the sacred cow.
Some of us immediately jumped to her defense at risk to ourselves. Please tell her she is missed and that she should come back.
Whether she was banned or not, it looks like ANOTHER GOOD PERSON THAT LEO HAS RUN OFF.
We fail to see how any one person could be worth the dozens of good posters being run off. That SSOS lady says that CW says “he doesn’t care, more will come”. Personally I have to believe that this was a fabrication of SSOS. With all the otherwise good work, I find it hard to believe that CW himself would be so callous and cavalier.
On the other hand, his continued refusal to “deal with the situation” is more than curious – – –
Paxson, here is a case in point: At 6:54 PM there is a post appearing to at least acknowledge Trump’s open stand about his doubts as to O’s eligibility. Prior to that, we all know FS has repeatedly trashed Trump and anyone who dared to say something possibly good about him. So where does FS really stand? More confusion, or, perhaps, as we suspect, intended consequences?
I deeply regret SueQ’s being banned, because she has a lot to bring to the table, and I believe that her being able to participate has meant much at this critical, sad time in her life. Something is very strange indeed with this situation. We miss you, SueQ, and pray for your comfort and strength!
I must get dressed and then head out the door. In the meantime, a decent analysis on why it is necessary to impose the no fly zone in Libya
http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-national/no-end-to-gaddafi-attacks-anu-expert-20110321-1c2nq.html
Keep in mind that the people in Benghazi do not want troops on the ground.
Keep in mind that Daffy did not destroy all of his mustard gas as he had agreed in the past. No one takes him at his word.
FS. Mr.Enigma. Why the Trump link? We all saw that and yesterday you called him loony. Don’t you think we remember your feelings in the man and how you degraded those who support the man?

FS loves to see strife reach a crescendo, he steers it that direction incrementally and then plays the victim. He thrives on this. He is getting what he has created. I wasn’t there, but I’m wondering if that happened in his jail situation?
http://www.timesnow.tv/Gaddafi-defends-attack-on-rebels/articleshow/4368205.cms
Gaddafi prefaced his letter saying, “To our son, his excellency, Mr Baracka Hussein Obama. I have said to you before, that even if Libya and the United States of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed.”
Cabby,
To those people that don’t listen, who refuse to listen, it is best to just ignore them. Why? You don’t want to become like them. So to those who act foolish and are unable to settle down, it’s best to ignore them because all they know is strife and quarrels. I think they deem themselves more important than others because they don’t want to hear what anyone else has to say, so it’s just kind of pretty much selfish.
I already had posted that Times of India article where Gadaffi calls Obama a brother. . I was pointing out that it was telling that FS wants to prop up Obama’s buddy by opposition to the “no fly zone “. He Just got done calling Aussie an obot because she supported it. FS clearly is a real obot, or is just insane.
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/flip-flop-obama-admin-sends-signals-that-gadhafi-can-stay-in-power/
On the Sunday news shows this morning, the Obama administration sent signals that Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi could stay in power–despite earlier statements from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and President Barack Obama that Gadhafi must go.
On Fox News Sunday today, Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staffs, said “We’re in a situation now that what we do will depend to some degree on what he does,” Mullen told Fox News Sunday.
“This is not about going after Gaddafi himself or attacking him at this particular point in time. It is about achieving these narrow and relatively limited objectives so that he stops killing his people and so that humanitarian support can be provided.”
On “Meet the Press,” Mullen described the campaign’s aims as “limited,“ saying it ”isn’t about seeing him (Gadhafi) go.” Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Mullen was asked whether it was possible that the mission’s goals could be achieved while leaving Gadhafi in power.
“That’s certainly potentially one outcome,” he replied.

******************************
kittycat77, I hear you and have done plenty of ignoring over the past year, but sometimes it is necessary to expose and refute. Oh, yes, it is easier and safer to keep quiet, but in my mind it is NOT the right thing to do all of the time. I don’t believe in belligerent sniping, but I do believe there are times that call for frank, straight talk. Maybe there has been too much silence here by some. “Becoming like them” doesn’t hold water. Read the following:
Let’s just translate that method to the condition which we face in this country. Does any one of us think that we can effectively come against the PTB and make a difference? Isn’t there a real risk that by being outspoken against the injustices we see in our country we may someday pay a price personally? After all, we all can be located by evil people if that time ever comes. Yet we take that risk because there is much at stake and it is the right thing to do, at least for me. I have friends who wouldn’t be caught dead on a public forum, because they fear retribution some day.
Sometimes “silence is not golden; it is yellow.”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DogPJVtsL-Y
I love CW and his blog, I will never turn my back on him or this place that he built with his hard work, love of this country and dedication to do something about it. That being said, I don’t like what I have become in dealing with this individual who clearly is not a good human being, is maniacal. And very possibly insane.

Very close encounters of the ‘super moon’ kind: Amazing pictures of our lunar neighbour… the nearest it’s been in 20 years

It looks like an intergalactic pilot is trying to cut the moon in half. In fact, this memorable image was created by a very Earthly vapour trail from a plane.
The shot is one of many extraordinary pictures of our nearest neighbour taken across the world this weekend, including a magical one below at Glastonbury Tor, Somerset.
As well as being full, the moon is currently relatively close to the Earth.
On Saturday it was 220,625 miles away, making it seem brighter and yellower and creating the eye-catching ‘super moon’ effect.
It was the first time since January 19, 1992, that the moon has been so close to the Earth. At its furthest, it can be 250,000 miles away.

bo gets PUNKED by his musbros
http://pajamasmedia.com/tatler/2011/03/20/obama-punked-by-the-arab-league-on-libya/
No doubt Ashton Kutcher is hiding behind a bush at whatever golf course Barack Obama happens to be playing today, ready to jump out and shout at the hapless president, “Dude, you just got punked!”
That’s about the only explanation after the Arab League reversed course and criticized the U.S.-led attack on Libya (via Reuters):
European and U.S. forces unleashed warplanes and cruise missiles against Gadhafi on Saturday in a United Nations-backed intervention to prevent the veteran leader from killing civilians as he fights an uprising against his 41-year rule.
But Arab League chief Amr Moussa said what was happening was not what Arabs had envisaged when they called for the imposition of a no-fly zone over Libya.
“What is happening in Libya differs from the aim of imposing a no-fly zone, and what we want is the protection of civilians and not the bombardment of more civilians,” he said.
In comments carried by Egypt’s official state news agency, Moussa also said he was calling for an emergency Arab League meeting.
It only seems like yesterday that Hillary Clinton was citing Arab League support for Obama’s war against Libya. Oh wait, it was only yesterday.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the United States will support its European, Canadian and Arab partners in their efforts to stop further violence against civilians in Libya by Muammar Qaddafi’s forces, including “through the effective implementation of a no-fly zone.”
Arab nation leadership in efforts to stop violence in Libya has played a key role in mobilizing the international coalition, Clinton said. Clinton said that the Arab League with its “pivotal statement” changed the “diplomatic landscape” with regard to the approach toward the United Nations Security Council resolution this week authorizing “all necessary measures,” including a no-fly zone to end violence and protect civilians in that country.
If I were a betting man I would take the Arab League’s reversal as an indication they believe Gaddafi is going to survive. Welcome to Barack Obama’s AWOL presidency.
The Meet the Press Panel ripped bo’s STUPID WAG THE DOG STUNT
http://nation.foxnews.com/obama/2011/03/20/serious-doubts-raised-about-obamas-war-libya
MR. GREGORY: And I, and I want to get more into that, but I want to just say, 25 years ago, Richard Haass, Chernobyl was the meltdown in that Time magazine cover. But again, confluence of crisis. For any president, this is a lot to manage at one time.
MR. RICHARD HAASS: It’s a lot to manage, but also it raises the importance of an administration having its priorities. You’ve got a lot to manage with Japan, you’ve got a lot to manage with what’s going on in the broader Middle East, you’ve got a lot to manage what’s going on in the United States in terms of our economy and our deficit. So one of the real questions is why are we doing as much are we are doing in Libya? So many of your guests are talking about too little too late. Let me give you another idea, David, too much too late. In times of crisis and multiple crisis, administrations have to figure out their priorities. They got to do some triage. The–to me, the big problem is not what we haven’t done, it is what we are doing.
MR. GREGORY: General Hayden, what are your concerns and your thoughts right now as you’re watching this unfold?
GEN. MICHAEL HAYDEN (Retired): Well, I, I think what the folks that I used to serve with in the armed forces in the intelligence community are, are wondering is, “How do I know when I’m done? What, what, what constitutes accomplishing this mission?” I mean, we can say this is for humanitarian purposes, we can say it’s a no-fly zone; but, in reality, what we have done is intervene in a Libyan civil war. We now own a moral responsibility for the outcome.
MR. GREGORY: Richard, you, you just have broad concerns as you, as you penned a piece in the Wall Street Journal earlier this month, “The US should keep out of Libya.”
MR. HAASS: Again, our interests aren’t vital. We’re talking about 2 percent of the world’s oil. Yes, there’s a humanitarian situation on, but at the risk of seeming a bit cold, it is not a humanitarian crisis on the scale say of Rwanda. We don’t have nearly 100–a million people, innocent men, women and children whose lives are threatened. This is something much more modest. This is a civil war. In civil wars, people get killed, unfortunately. But we shouldn’t kid ourselves. This is not a humanitarian intervention, this is U.S. political, military intervention in a civil conflict which, by the way, history suggests, often prolongs the civil conflict. And, as several people have already pointed out, what is step B? Whether Gadhafi complies with what we want or whether he resists successfully, either way, we are going to be stuck with the aftermath of essentially having to take ownership of Libya with others. And just because others are willing to share in something, as so many people point out, doesn’t make it a better policy. It just means the costs are going to be distributed. But the policy itself is seriously flawed.
MR. GREGORY: Well, and General Hayden, you said that this notion of a no-fly zone is–how do you describe it? Should not be the focus.
GEN. HAYDEN: Right, right. No. I mean, look, it wasn’t the Libyan air force that was causing problems. It was the preponderance of ground power that Gadhafi could bring to bear. And so stopping them flying doesn’t solve anything.
MR. GREGORY: No. It’s so we can bomb them from their airspace, right? If they start to move on the ground.
GEN. HAYDEN: We have–we have to do. But I found it striking that your reporter from Tobruk said that the reaction of the opposition to this was they’re putting their helmets back on, buttoning their chin straps…
MR. GREGORY: Yeah.
GEN. HAYDEN: …and going back on the offensive. Now, what kind of dilemma policywise does that present us with if now it’s the opposition on the move taking on Gadhafi’s forces?
MR. GREGORY: All right. Now I want to get a quick break in here. We’re going to come back and talk about this and some of the bigger questions about what comes next. More with our roundtable as the situation in Libya unfolds right after this.
MR. GREGORY: We’re back.
Richard Haass, let me pick up with you. The issue that was on the table is, what if now the opposition feels emboldened, and they’re now on the move, and civil war starts again? What position does that put us in?
MR. HAASS: Well, that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
Advertise | AdChoices
MR. GREGORY: Yeah.
MR. HAASS: And we don’t know what the political agenda of these people are. The tribal makeup of Libya is so complex. I hope that the people making the decisions in the administration have a real feel for what is going on and what are going to be the political agendas of the people we may be now empowering. But the one thing we know is that this thing now has a new lease on life. And what might have burned out is not going to, if you will, be rekindled. This is now going to be a prolonged civil war. And at some point we’re going to have to decide new forms of intervention. It’s not going to stop here, David. It’s not going to end with simply the United States shooting off some Tomahawks or doing some aircraft runs. This is going to require, ultimately, the one thing the administration says it probably doesn’t want to do, boots on the ground. Someone is going to have to provide that kind of involvement in Libya because this is a country that is going to be fundamentally divided with places people are killing each other and places the government is not in control of.
MR. GREGORY: But, Jim, is that fair? I mean, General Hayden, I had a member of the Bush administration say to me candidly, look, can you imagine if Sarkozy was in power in 2002 as we were starting the Iraq War. You really do have the French and the British leading on this. As the senator has pointed out, the Arab League swinging behind this here. It’d be difficult, Gadhafi may try, but to make this a unilateral U.S. effort here.
GEN. HAYDEN: Oh, no. and I, I don’t think anyone’s saying that we should. But let’s look at why people are doing these things. I think the Arab League move was quite remarkable, frankly. But with our European friends, I mean, this is about cold, hard facts. This is about mass migration. They, they have a direct interest here that they have to protect. It’s no wonder that they had a greater sense of urgency about this than we did.
MR. GREGORY: The big ideas and are we getting them right?
MR. HAASS: Mike Mullen says the big idea, the biggest single national security threat facing the United States is our economy, it’s our fiscal situation. This will not make it better. Instead, we are ignoring a previous secretary of state, John Quincy Adams, someone you haven’t had on the show in awhile. We are going abroad in search of monsters to destroy. There’s any number of monsters. But is this, right now, something that’s strategically necessary and vital for the United States, given all that’s happening in places like Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, around the world, with all that we need to repair at home? The answer, I would think, is not. And that’s the big idea the administration’s missing. It’s not enough to simply want to do good around the world wherever we see bad. We’ve got to ask ourselves, where can we do good, at what cost, against what else we might have to do?

If Obama launches an air war on Libya without prior congressional authorization, he’ll violate the Constitution. What’s more–by his own admission–he’ll be breaking his oath to uphold the Constitution.
On the campaign trail in late 2007, reporter Charlie Savage quizzed the candidates on their views of presidential power. Asked if the president had the power, without congressional approval, to bomb a country that didn’t represent an imminent threat to the US, Obama answered:
The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.
At a hearing today, Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., ranking Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, declared “if the Obama administration decides to impose a no-fly zone or take other significant military action in Libya, I believe it should first seek a Congressional debate on a declaration of war under Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.” Lugar said. When asked by Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., if the administration thinks it needs congressional authorization to bomb Libya, the hearing’s lone witness, the State Department’s Bill Burns, replied, “I can’t give you a yes-no answer.”
Back on the campaign trail, Obama answered that question: it was, yes, unless there’s an imminent threat, the president needs congressional authorization to go to war.

I think Trump would be great. Like me, he saw the light after hilary was robbed, and he moved to the GOP side. Trump loves the US and Israel, and he is very concerned about China and OPEC. He is smart and articulate, and can debate Obama easily. He is very impressive.

It’s obvious that he’s only here to spread contention and cause division. He’s not a uniter-type person at all. So I don’t find replying to him causes anything worth speaking of.

CIVILIAN CASUALTIES
A Libyan government health official said 64 people had been killed in the Western bombardment overnight from Saturday to Sunday…
The Arab League’s Moussa called for an emergency meeting of the group of 22 states to discuss Libya. He requested a report into the bombardment, which he said had “led to the deaths and injuries of many Libyan civilians.”

Arab League denounces Libya strikes
Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa has denounced military strikes on Libya and called an emergency meeting to discuss the crisis.
The Arab League joined international calls for a no-fly zone over the country last week.
The League’s withdrawal of support for coalition strikes could be a major setback. “Regional consent” was cited by a number of world leaders as a prerequisite for action, and Arab League approval was pivotal in attaining UN Security Council Resolution 1973, which authorises “all necessary measures [barring occupation] to protect civilians and civilian populated areas under threat of attack.”
But responding to reports of US, French and UK air strikes and cruise missile attacks, Moussa stated: “What is happening in Libya differs from the aim of imposing a no-fly zone, and what we want is the protection of civilians and not the bombardment of more civilians.”

Obama: An inept, amateurish failure
Like an increasing number of Americans, I’m sick and tired of the ineptitude of Barack Hussein Obama.
I’m sick of his lies. I’m sick of his inability to do his job. I’m sick of his abandonment of virtually all of the promises he issued with so much gusto during the 2008 election.
As a President, Obama is a monumental failure. As a human being, he is devoid of morality, honesty or ability to accept responsibility for his actions.
He’s living proof that affirmative action can — and does — fail to work, even at the highest levels of government.
What — in retrospect — drove this nation to put such an inexperienced moron into the highest office in the land? A first-term Senator? A product of the Chicago Democratic machine? What the hell were we thinking?
Even Democrats privately call Obama an amateur. In the House and Senate chambers, they whisper and laugh at his many mistakes and realize that they — like too many others in Americans — were had by a con man.
Nineteen months into his administration of mishap, missteps and mistakes, Obama continues to spout the same verbal mantra: It’s not my fault. George W. Bush did it all. I just inherited the mess.
George W. Bush did not orchestrate a budget-busting, lobbyist-crafted phony health care reform bill that will do nothing to provide affordable medical care to Americans who need it most.
George W. Bush did not expand the Afghan war into another Vietnam-style morass.
Polls show Americans no longer buy into Obama’s “it’s all Bush’s fault” whines. They want action, not excuses. They want a leader, not an equivocator.
At this critical time, America needs a leader.
Barack Hussein Obama ain’t one.
Daffy’s command headquarters have been attacked:
http://www.smh.com.au/world/gaddafis-command-and-control-capability-destroyed-says-official-20110321-1c2kn.html
http://www.nationalenquirer.com/obama_sex_perv_scandal/celebrity/65575
The ENQUIRER exclusively reports a “sex pervert” was Sen. Barack Obama’s longtime mentor and “father figure”.
For seven years, the presidential candidate had a “father-son” relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, who has confessed to having sex with children, sadomasochism, bondage and practicing a wide array of deviant sexual activities.
In his 1995 memoir Dreams from My Father, Obama identifies his childhood mentor only as “Frank,” but Obama insiders later confirmed he was referring to Davis, a journalist and poet who was a pal of Obama’s maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham.
Frank Marshall Davis admitted in his private papers that he had secretly authored a hard-core pornographic autobiography called Sex Rebel: Black, published in 1968. The author of the book – a copy of which was been obtained by The ENQUIRER – is listed as “Bob Greene.” Davis later confessed to its authorship after a reader noticed similarities in style and phraseology between that book and Davis’ poetry.
Mr Rudd Says that people should be very sceptical of Daffy’s claims regarding civilian casualties:

Arab League Denounces U.S. Attack
Air strike on Sudan is called violation of international
The Arab League condemned Thursday’s U.S. air strike against Sudan yesterday, charging that Washington violated international law.
“The Arab League received with disgust the news of the attack which killed several innocent people and destroyed a plant which provides 50 percent of Sudan’s medical needs,” the Cairo-based organization said in a statement.

The Arab League has reportedly condemned yesterday’s air strikes in Libya, despite the organisation appealing to the international community to enforce a no-fly zone.
Secretary general Amr Mussa was quoted as saying: “What has happened in Libya differs from the goal of imposing a no-fly zone.
“What we want is the protection of civilians and not bombing other civilians.”
Russia, one of five countries on the UN security council which abstained in Thursday’s vote, today joined criticism of the bombing raids.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said the strikes hit non-military targets.
He added: “We are calling on the respective states to halt the indiscriminate use of force.”

Almost 100 people were killed in Benghazi by Daffy’s mercenaries during fighting that had commenced on Friday and raged on Saturday before the mercenaries were scattered. The dead included children as young as 8 years old:
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/03/21/3168927.htm
The Daffy story about 48 civilians being killed during the allied bombardment have not been substantiated. It is a Daffy propaganda story
Before the missiles are fired, they are given set GPS coordinates. Their target was the air defence system. If there were bodies of civilians found at those locations then Daffy had those dead civilians shot by his mercenaries in Tripoli and elsewhere, their bodies taken from the hospital morgues and taken to those locations in order to spread the vicious lie.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/03/21/3169048.htm
The Libyan army announced a ceasefire was in force for all its units and outlined a plan to stage a peace convoy to Benghazi to offer condolences and prayer.
But Vice Admiral Gortney said Libya’s declaration of a new ceasefire on Sunday was not credible.
“I question anything Gaddafi calls for. He called for a ceasefire and then told his troops to move into Benghazi after a ceasefire.”
The vice admiral also said no coalition aircraft had been hit in operations over the past few days.
Top US military commander Admiral Mike Mullen echoed Vice Admiral Gortney’s statements, saying the aim now was to cut off Mr Gaddafi’s logistical support.
He stressed the immediate goal of the coalition’s intervention – as prescribed by a UN Security Council resolution on Thursday – was to protect civilians with a no-fly zone, not to oust the Libyan leader.
US president Barack Obama has vowed US troops will not be deployed on the ground and Admiral Mullen stressed military action was limited to protecting civilians, particularly in the rebel bastion of Benghazi.
Earlier on Sunday, three US B-2 stealth bombers dropped 40 bombs on a major Libyan airfield in an attempt to destroy much of the Libyan air force.
NATO ambassadors, meanwhile, have approved an operations plan for the alliance to help enforce a UN arms embargo on Libya, but more discussion was needed on separate plan for possible NATO involvement in enforcing the no-fly zone.
A Libyan government health official said 64 people had been killed in the Western bombardment overnight, but it was impossible to verify the report as government minders refused to take reporters in Tripoli to the sites of the bombings.
A spokesman for the opposition movement told Al Jazeera more than 8,000 rebels had been killed since the revolt began last month.
Commenting about Western intervention in a defiant speech on Sunday, Mr Gaddafi said: “We will remain alive and you will die.”
He said he would not be forced out by a “crusader war” and said he would give out weapons to his people to help defend Libya from “colonial, crusader” aggression.
The coalition acting against Mr Gaddafi, which originally grouped the US, Britain, France, Italy and Canada, has broadened to include Belgium and Qatar.

IT IS DESPICABLE THAT OBOTS HERE CONDONE bo’s KILLING OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS!
====================================
One would think a sane person would at least try to keep separate two different things that are happening.
1. Should the international community do something like a no fly zone to protect the Libyan victims from being bombed and massacred by Gadaffi? There is a large consensus of YES, and some quite good reasons involved. There is an alternate debatable point, a position favored by some other good intentioned and intelligent people that maybe no good can come from it or that greater care and deliberation is needed. Nobody should be criticized for considering these positions.
2. The overall handling of the thing by Obamessiah, The Won. As usual ample criticism is appropriate here.
There is no reason for lashing out at people and calling them Obots for wishing to do a good thing – and in essence blaming THEM for mishandling by Obama.
The Arab League Members who sanctioned bo’s “No-Fly Zone” have no reason to LIE ONLY bo HAS A MOTIVE TO LIE TO ATTEMPT AVOIDING PROSECUTION FOR HIS CRIMES.

The latest update from Professor Barry Brook, Adelaide University:
The comment remains the same, with regard to any danger to human health.
Aussie | March 20, 2011 at 11:07 pm |
==============================
Remember also that in countries like Libya, the distinction between Officials and Civilians is almost non existent. Civilians are employed for Army jobs (paid or volunteer – makes no difference) and not all Army have proper uniforms all the time.
We also know that a great number of actual Civilians (above and beyond quasi-Army) are in favor of Gadaffi and will fight for him and defend him.
So, even if there were a number of “regular people” killed, how could anybody possibly tell if they were quasi-Army, pro-Qadaffi civilans, or rebels.
Methinks somebody is trying to put too fine a point on things – making a mountain out of a molehill.
bo has DESTROYED his coalition. The UN and the Arab League will NOT support bo’s WAR CRIMES.

The reports of Libya mobilizing its air force against its own people spread quickly around the world. However, Russia’s military chiefs say they have been monitoring from space – and the pictures tell a different story.
According to Al Jazeera and BBC, on February 22 Libyan government inflicted airstrikes on Benghazi – the country’s largest city – and on the capital Tripoli. However, the Russian military, monitoring the unrest via satellite from the very beginning, says nothing of the sort was going on on the ground.
At this point, the Russian military is saying that, as far as they are concerned, the attacks some media were reporting have never occurred.
The same sources in Russia’s military establishment say they are also monitoring the situation around Libya’s oil pumping facilities.
Aussie – here is a question for you – which may be what Free Speech is/was trying to say if he were not such a Demented Prick.
You have been a great believer that intervention in Libya was necessary. But do you really trust the USA (as led by our current CiC) to be able to do it – or even be part of a coalition – without cocking it up?
I think that is a really critical question.
FOS it needs to be pointed out that it was a bombardment that was a joint effort, with British and French playing a role. The French were the first to open fire on Daffy’s mercenaries outside of Benghazi.
The claim of civilian deaths has not been independently verfied because Daffy refused to allow the journalists to see for themselves. On the other hand staff at the local hospitals have stated that the Daffy goons came and took bodies of those killed by Daffy mercenaries to these sites in order to fool people into believing his lies.
Personally, realizing the great humanitarian crisis, the ‘need’ to protect the rebels from their own government, but tempered with the reality of US overall war fighting policy, and the competence (and suspect motives) of the US Executive Office and the State Department and the advisory Czars – –
There is NO WAY THIS CAN POSSIBLY COME TO ANY GOOD.
Sometimes you have to forgo the ideals in the face of practical reality.
The Arab League sanctioned bo’s “no fly zone” until it was proven that INNOCENT CIVILIANS were KILLED
PS – not to say that other International players cannot or should not insert themselves in this crisis. I’m just saying that USA (as currently lead) is incapable of doing this well.
Free Speech | March 20, 2011 at 11:37 pm |
The Arab League sanctioned bo’s “no fly zone” until it was proven that INNOCENT CIVILIANS were KILLED
================================
You need to READ and THINK before you open your mouth and spew nonsense.
1. There is no proof that ANY civilians were killed – certainly no corroboration by any reputable body. Just self-statements by Gadaffi regime.
2. Even a further stretch would be whether any killed civilians were INNOCENT.
FOS, the Americans are not in charge of the operation. The British and the French are in charge.
The role of the US appears to be confined to the use of missiles that have knocked out the defense systems. This has been successful.
The missiles are ver precise and they are given coordinates of their targets. They do not go astray to hit civilians.
The claim about civilians being hit during the bombardment is a claim that has come from an unreliable source in Tripoli and according to all of the news reports the claim cannot be substantiated.
The counter claim is that bodies were taken from the hospital morgues with the express purpose of deceiving the world into believing that civilians were killed by the missiles.
I trust the US Navy to get the coordinates correct for a precision hit and I trust the intelligence of sources outside of Tripoli.
FS says, “According to Al Jazeera and BBC, on February 22 Libyan government inflicted airstrikes on Benghazi – the country’s largest city – and on the capital Tripoli. However, the Russian military, monitoring the unrest via satellite from the very beginning, says nothing of the sort was going on on the ground.
At this point, the Russian military is saying that, as far as they are concerned, the attacks some media were reporting have never occurred.”
***************************************
Since when are we placing so much trust in Russia? Is Russia our friend? Does Russia like America? Is Russia looking out for her own self-interests? Before we place any confidence in that report we need to do some independent investigating.
FS says, (10:56 PM) “Russians should call for an Emergency Meeting of the UN Security Counsel to investigate bo’s WAR CRIMES.” That is absolute hogwash! I am not defending the despicable Bo, but for us to be subjected to a Russian chastisement for alleged WAR CRIMES is absurd. It would be the US, not Bo, who would suffer. Let’s get reasonable and realistic here for a change and not just talk off the top of our heads! It seems now that anything a person wants to dump out there is okay. Hanging around this type of stuff creates a “smear by association” problem, to say the least.
BTW it is not Bo’s no-fly zone. It is Sarklozy and Cameron’s No FLY Zone.
As it stands Bo had to be dragged kicking and screaming to make a decision because Daffy and Bo are of like mind and Bo did not want to make that decision but Hillary is more of a hawk.
The decision to go ahead with the no-fly zone rests with the UN. There was a resolution that allowed implementation. The French were the first to strike, not the USA.
How can anybody sanction the deaths of thousands of Freedom Fighters plus civilians as has occurred since the uprising began? Daffy was promising to show no mercy in Benghazi which in turn prompted the resolution and its implementation by France and the UK.
everyting is not as it seems in Tripoli:

It did strike me as odd to rely upon anything coming from the Russians.
Russia is an enemy, not an ally.
here is a very detailed report that indicates that the allied forces were very careful in their actions:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/mar/20/air-strikes-clear-skies
the information on this link might be a bit old, but it is worth reading. It clarifies a number of instances of contradictory statements, including some from Iran ( the Iranian statements are posturing)
this report is very disturbing:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/libya/8393843/Libya-Benghazi-about-to-fall…-then-came-the-planes.html
Daffy’s goons have been lining up people and executing them. On top of that there is evidence that many young Daffy fighters have been reluctant to participate, and they have been chained to the tanks and then executed.
This is an outrageous abuse of human rights perpetrated against Libyans where more than 8000 have died at the hands of Daffy since the protests began.
It pains me to post this – and I most likely will not be allowed to post again – but the one responsible for allowing the continued and mostly despicable posts by Leo/FS is for unfathomable reasons – our host, Citizen Wells.
An apology should never have been demanded of SueQ – all she did was speculate as to what Leo might have been accused of. I thought it was amusing.
I have never seen CW demand an apology from Free Speech!
So now I have a question.
What does Leo/Free Speech have on Citizen Wells?
That is the only thing that makes any sense.
I can go on, because it is late at night, and I may not have another chance.
Citizen Wells, I admire you and your amazing research. You are the third place I check every morning for news before I get out of bed on my IPod Touch. For the record, I first check lucianne.com and Drudge.
Lately, I look at your posts and avoid the comments that I used to enjoy.
I realize that I have been a sporadic poster on your site, but have done my best. (I think my time is best used posting on enemy sites, hoping to change minds.) Usually, when I checked in here, there was a reasonable conversation thriving.
Not any more and it has not happened for some time.
Almost all the posts are from Leo, mostly links. If not that, he is attacking and accusing a long time poster of being an Obot.
This cannot be the positive vision you imagined when you began this endeavor.
I hope you will receive my comment with the sincerity I wrote them.
All the very best to you.
If I am reading this report correctly, Bahrain is blaming Iran for the Shiite unrest in that country:
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/21/us-bahrain-protests-king-idUSTRE72K11L20110321?feedType=RSS&feedName=worldNews&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+reuters%2FworldNews+%28News+%2F+US+%2F+International%29
Actually I think that this is probably correct, but I would have thought that MB might have been involved as well.
Also Egypt has rejected Mr Potato head with the acceptance of the proposed reforms. Mr Potato Head is excluded from running for President because his wife is Iranian.

Please be careful of making such vindictive remarks regarding individuals.
In the interests of harmony on the blog I believe that people should just shut up and stop with the snide innuendo.

for us to be subjected to a Russian chastisement for alleged WAR CRIMES is absurd. It would be the US, not Bo, who would suffer.
===============================
That needed to be said! Further, calling on ANYONE in the international community to progress against any American citizen or official, in regards warcrimes, is a specific instance of Terrorism and Treason, in and of itself.
It cannot possibly be long now before CW bans this demented prick for life.

God bless you maam!
The several of us comprising the “FOS Alert Team” were forced to join together specifically to fight this particular scourge. In retrospect we should have chosen the tag “FOS Abuse” – that is what we meant to stay. FS is ABUSING the concept of Freedom Speech and CW is allowing this.
For the record, and to try to clarify once again –
We are NOT Carlyle. Although we know Carlyle, know exactly who he is, and know how ludicrous it is for someone like FS to even attempt an even debate. Carlyle is a male. The primary lead for FOS Alert is a LADY, for chrissake!
Sure, different ones of us post and sometimes say “I” and sometimes “we”, but don’t let that confuse you. Some of us have posted here before under other names. Most have not – only lurked for years. But we couldn’t take it anymore. So we speak out!
We note with amusement that the two most horrific insults that FS can muster are “must be Obot” and “must be Carlyle”. We are honored with either title.
And yes, we do talk with Carlyle once in a while, and we are sure (and hope) that some of his wisdom leaks through once sometimes.

It must have been really bad. It seems to have mysteriously disappeared. Is this another case of censorship (no matter how bad it was) of a remark critical of The Sacred Cow?
FOS Alert | March 21, 2011 at 10:25 am |
It was an unnecessary remark, that is all.
