VIENNA | Sun May 20, 2012 9:20am EDT
(Reuters) - The U.N. nuclear supervisor flies to Tehran on Sunday looking for a deal to inspect suspected weapons sites - a potential breakthrough that Iran may hope could persuade the West to start lifting sanctions and deflect threats of war.
But though IAEA chief Yukiya Amano scheduled Monday's talks with Iran at such short notice that diplomats said agreement on new inspections may be near, few see Tehran convincing Western governments to ease back swiftly on punitive measures when its negotiators meet big power officials in Baghdad on Wednesday.

Amano, director general of the U.N.'s Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, meets Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili on Monday, two days before Jalili sits across a table in the Iraqi capital from Catherine Ashton, the senior EU official heading a six-power coalition comprised of the five U.N. Security Council permanent members plus Germany.

By promising cooperation with U.N. inspectors, diplomats say Iran might aim for leverage ahead of the broader negotiations, where the United States and its allies want Iran to halt works they say are cover for developing nuclear weapons. Western sanctions on Iran's energy exports, and threats by Israel and Washington of military action, have pushed up world oil prices.

Details on Amano's hurried mission were scarce.

The IAEA said only that he and Jalili would discuss "issues of mutual interest". Western diplomats say he would only make a rare visit to Tehran if he believed a framework deal to give his inspectors freer hands in their investigation was within reach.

"We regard the visit by the agency's director general as a gesture of goodwill," Iranian foreign minister Ali Akbar Salehi was quoted as saying by the Iranian student news agency on Saturday. He hoped for agreement on a "new modality" to work with the U.N. agency that would "help clear up the ambiguities".

The nuclear watchdog wants access to sites, officials and documents to shed light on activities in Iran that could be used to develop the capability to make nuclear weapons, especially the Parchin military complex southeast of Tehran.

Two meetings between Iran and senior Amano aides in Tehran in January and February failed to make any notable progress. But both sides were more upbeat after a new round of talks in Vienna last week, raising hopes they were making headway.

SKEPTICISM

Yet while an Iranian agreement on a so-called "structured approach" outlining the ground rules on how to address the IAEA's questions would be welcome, it remains to be seen how and when it will be implemented in practice, they say.

"We'll see if the Iranians agree to let the agency visit Parchin. I have my doubts, no matter what any agreement says on paper," said one Western envoy ahead of Amano's visit to Iran and the meeting with world powers, the P5+1, in Baghdad.

Such a deal would also not be enough in itself to allay international concerns. World powers want Iran to curb uranium enrichment, which can have both civilian and military purposes.

Iran, to general incredulity from its Israeli and Western adversaries, insists its nuclear program is intended only to generate electricity and other civilian uses. Unlike Israel, assumed to have the Middle East's only nuclear arsenal, Iran is a signatory to treaties that oblige it to work with the IAEA.

"We are not going to do anything concrete in exchange for nice words," another diplomat said of the Baghdad meeting, the arrangement of which stemmed from a P5+1 meeting with Iran in Istanbul last month that ended over a year of not talking.

"Presumably, we will get a flavor of what the Iranians are prepared to do," the diplomat said. "It sounds like they are interested in making progress."

Another Western diplomat said: "Cooperation with the IAEA is important but it takes some time to yield results.

"What we need now, with the situation in the region, are urgently concrete steps. So our talks will focus on something that can be implemented very quickly."

ISRAEL SCEPTICAL

Leaders of the Group of Eight, worried about the effect of high oil prices on their faltering economies, raised the pressure on Iran on Saturday, signaling their readiness to tap into emergency oil stockpiles quickly this summer if tougher new sanctions on Tehran threaten to strain supplies.

"All of us are firmly committed to continuing with the approach of sanctions and pressure in combination with diplomatic discussions," U.S. President Barack Obama said.

Israel, convinced a nuclear-armed Iran would pose a mortal threat, has - like the United States - not ruled out air strikes to stop Iran's atomic progress if it deems diplomacy has failed.

The Jewish state has made clear its skepticism about the prospects for diplomacy, saying Iran is just trying to buy time.

"We don't see any readiness from the Iranian side to give up their nuclear ambitions and for them all the engagement, from our point of view, it's clear deception," Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said on Sunday.

An Israeli official told Reuters: "There is no doubt that the Iranians believe progress with the IAEA will improve their position in the Baghdad meeting."

BAGHDAD GOALS

In Baghdad, the powers' main goal is to get Iran to stop the higher-grade uranium enrichment it started two years ago and has since expanded, shortening the time needed for any weapons bid.

Iran says it needs the uranium enriched to a fissile concentration of 20 percent for its medical research reactor.

An adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said there were hopes the Baghdad meeting would be successful.

But Iran will not "tolerate any pressure and it decides about its destiny in the nuclear issue with full authority," Mehr News Agency quoted Ali Akbar Velayati as saying.

The IAEA wants Iran to address issues raised by an agency report last year that revealed intelligence pointing to past and possibly ongoing activity to help develop atomic arms.

Iran says the intelligence is fabricated, and has so far resisted requests for inspectors to visit Parchin.

Western diplomats say they suspect Iran is cleaning the site to remove incriminating evidence, a charge Tehran dismisses.

"I hope Amano asks for his people to see Parchin," one Western diplomat said. "But it seems a wild guess to me."

Diplomats say the six powers will probably aim to extract an offer from Tehran to implement some limited curbs and begin a long-term process of gradual concessions from all sides.

Their hope is that economic sanctions imposed by Western nations in the last year, targeting Iran's vital oil revenues and ability to trade with international partners, would be enough to force Iran to take that first step, one diplomat said.

Immediate confidence-building measures that Iran could offer are "not all that complicated," said former senior U.S. State Department official, James Dobbins, now with the Rand Corporation's International Security and Defense Policy Center.

"It is essentially, 'Stop enriching to 20 percent, ship out what you've already done ... and then let's last start talking about more comprehensive measures'."

But European diplomats say any corresponding changes to their further oil embargo plans are out of the question for now: "The EU oil sanctions are a very big card and a very big step," one said. "Just because they have been applied last doesn't mean they will be the first to be taken off."

SENATE VOTES DOWN OBAMA BUDGET 99-0 AFTER HUDDLE WITH THE TEA PARTY......

ADDRESSING INFLATION...

HOW TO APPLY PAUL RYAN CUTS:

TEA PARTY BUDGET $2.5 TRILLION ANNUAL REVENUE http://lnk.ms/Wb6nV

THE GOP AND THE TEA PARTY ARE COMMITTED TO RESTORING THE VALUE OF THE DOLLAR, BY ADDRESSING INFLATION THROUGH BUDGETARY MEANS, AND WE EXPRESS OUR COMMITMENT TO SMALL BUSINESSES IN POLICY AND LEGISLATION. TEA PARTY SUMMARY OF BUDGET COMPARISON FOR CONSTITUTIONAL BUDGETING BY PRIORITY AND REVENUE VS. 2013 GOP PATH TO PROSPERITY BUDGET,

LINE-BY-LINE ITEMIZATION:

1) We need to pass the Paul Ryan GOP Path to Prosperity budget,

because we need a transitional tax rate and tax reform, before going

to a 20% flat tax. Obama is overbudget $3.2 trillion on his proposals

and the tax increases he’s trying to impose on Americans.

OTHER PROPOSALS: TEA PARTY 7-7-7 PLAN (7% SALES TAX, 7% INDIVIDUAL OR INCOME TAX, 7% STATEMENT OF WORTH TAX)

Many already pay 10% to the church, or more, which explains why states with more churches are not suffering the unemployment like Nevada, as Mormonism is about storing up the money than it is meeting the needs of the body of Christ, which is why I draw the distinction of public disclosure of deductions/donations and still acct. for statement of worth. Which means that the Mormon Church is operating as a business, not a charity, because they are using the religious racket to avoid paying taxes.

**We don’t like the Fair Tax, as it is a national V.A.T. which is too high 23%, gives the federal government too much power and strips states the power to fund themselves, any individual tax rate/small business must be around 20%, because not all individuals are giving 10% to the church but they are using 3% of services, roads and health care. Therefore, if an individual has no income we can verify, we can not prove that they are paying 7% of sales tax in a bad economy when sales are down, which is why the Fair Tax does not work past being on paper.
State sales taxes must go up to 10%, then a person may file that they gave 10% to the church so we would avoid the revenue crunch of them not paying for roads and health care, but most are under the $20,000 mark so they don’t ever file, but we should require that you must file every year, that you were exempt status and what your deductions/donations were. That way we can assess penalties for those abusing indigent services, sucking off Social Security or defrauding disability, or never paying taxes but sales tax and when they are practicing tax evasion altogether while getting TANF and health care as it is.

STATE TAXES WILL NEED TO GO UP 3% (2% FOR HEALTH CARE SERVICES ALREADY USED AND 1% FOR ROADS -- IF WE DO THIS, WE CAN FIX INCOME INEQUALITY AT STATE LEVEL BY PROPERLY FUNDING PROGRAMS WITHOUT BORROWING ON A PREMIUM FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, TO STABILIZE THE FEDERAL BUDGET ON CONSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY, NOT BALLOONING THE DIPLOMACY UMBRELLA OF THE BUDGET.

2) A 10yr. Window is an excellent budget principle to review sunset programs.

3) YEAH WE NEED TO GO TO A #CUTGO SYSTEM OF BUDGETING rather than #PAYGO

4) pg. 72 -- 2nd bullet is #CRUCIAL

5) If we go to 25% rate, we should end payroll tax holiday permanently.

6) Let us lower the corporate tax to 25%, I think that is reasonable,

so they don't have to cheat to get by.

I would rather lower the tax rate to a flat 20% or a 7-7-7 plan for corporations, so that they can get their profit margin back in order to invest and create jobs. In order to apply for this tax rate, we should say that they must prove to the I.R.S. that they spent 4-5% hiring new employees and to create jobs.

7) We must change the tax code for 2013, to your brackets Ryan, or
the joke will be on us as Japan lowers theirs.

8) I want 20% flat tax w/deduction lists, but we are not there, and we

can't take Obama's tax proposals.

9) pass #HR5 #BlockGrantMedicaid #EndSnap #ALL on #TANF

10) strike Obama's streamlining of MEDICARE, get Seniors off of

Medicare Part D by 2016 with a legit insurance coverage

11) Those w/massive student loan debt, give them a tax credit to help

pay it off as a loss on taxes-by tutoring others. We the taxpayers can’t be on the hook for lowering their student loan costs without it being offset by them paying for it with them tutoring others, that solves 2 problems at once, educating the younger youth and getting the loan rate low enough for those to be paid.

12) DO AWAY with SNAP, put everyone on TANF, put a red flag in

taxpayer files for those who do not file for the year.

13) pg. 42 return Medicaid to states, and strike individual mandate,

as it is unconstitutional, we don't live in MA

14) Barack Obama READ "Poverty can never be reduced in the absence of

a growing economy that produces jobs and facilitates shared

prosperity."

15) better yet, do away with SNAP and get everyone on TANF to more

accurately control fraud

16) cut the courts appropriation back 100 billion, appropriate for

Prison Reform Restoration Act must educate inmates (I’ll draft a program)

17) 5yr. mandatory sentences is housing someone who needs to be

educated, we need serious prison reforms

18) don't need my express written permission to cut duplicative

programs-we need judiciary to support Bachelor degrees

19) that is ridiculous: students should be restricted from carrying

over $10,000 of loan debt annually

20) SNAP cards should not dispense cash or be used for purchases that

are not food, cigarettes or alcohol, period.

21) No dual programs for drugs that are ruining our communities by

people selling pills !!!

22) Medicaid needs to be reformed to hospital supplemental insurance,

and it needs to be grouped with Medicare D - each state can create an OPTIONAL program for the uninsured

23) OR Scrap Medicaid: I have paid taxes for 15yrs. nearly for someone

else's health plan, that I don't get access to it.

24) Take 346 left and divide it in half, half for roads 173 for roads

and 173 energy COMPROMISE

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?pli=1&key=0Aq5m9QEGEZpOdDE0R0o1YmFJRDdyVkFIcVE0dkthUXc&hl=en_US#gid=0

25) better yet: take the energy cuts and renew the roads you have been

squawking about since January, split it

26) Why should Afghanistan get twice as much as Iraq and all we get is

grief from them and no minerals? CUT FUNDING

27) cut off aid to Afghanistan, in the diplomacy section. I am tired

of dealing with Karzai's fickle speech.

**2014 Withdrawal date, make concessions to pay back security costs with mineral development and internet upgrade, if Karzai wants that to enhance security

28) Something Obama hasn't learned: when you simply throw money at the

problem it doesn't go away, you just have debt.

29) Energy can have what is left from defense 346 billion, and it is

to be spent on Keystone, not solar paneled b.s.!

WHAT’S UP WITH THE WIND FARMS ON THE EAST COAST? LET ME GUESS: THOSE ARE GOING TO CHOP UP NUKES RIGHT? HOW ABOUT FOCUS ON THE MISSILE DEFENSE SHIELD AND GET IT COMPLETE BY 2014 OR 2015, NOT 2016.

30) Obama's increases for energy and on health insurance are denied:
apply cuts at 1.3 trillion, 800/500

31) pg. 27 strike $800 subsidies to insurance companies from the

federal govt. they are to govern not be insurance

32) I disagree: #HR4872 and the Unaffordable Care Act are

#renumeration not good laws or ethical legislation #strike

33) Obama'a requests to increase energy spending when it falls under

defense are denied, see Chu.

34) We are considering a law suit for every day Obama has stayed past

3/1/12 and travel expenses after 1/1/12.

35) What part of 0 travel, except for emergency, does Obama not

understand? You can't campaign on our dime.

36) 3 areas of budget I'm unhappy about 1) failing to write one 2)

courts being corrupted 3) diplomacy cuts unapplied

37) Plus Obama is impeached, and I do expect 107 to be supported.

38) Just because we have had a successful Treasury audit, we have not

had the job growth to approve Obama increases.

39) have you read my tax reform proposal on Elder Care? I'm on your

page 19 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ocpbGsEGdurMv_5XCedlFMbLV8L_6nwd1NlLM4y17XY/edit

if we do not adopt this, we are creating another housing bubble and not restoring the housing market the correct way

40) let us add 100 billion to your proposal for Syria operation, for
1yr. commitment, that is 654 billion - refigure

operations are being deployed for Syrian refugee camps on the border of Turkey and other miscellaneous military activity at this time. We will revisit funding needs by June/July for these areas with a report back.

41) I want the FULL constitutional provision available for defense, $1
trillion, you only have it budgeted for 554

42) Have you seen this timeline of things that have happened since

@SenateDems last passed a budget over #1000Days ago?

TEA PARTY BUDGET $2.5 TRILLION ANNUAL REVENUE http://lnk.ms/Wb6nV

Obama's 2013 Budget Package is 30yrs. of economic slavery to

government, and it needs to be publicly lit on fire: CHARGE SENATOR

REID AND OBAMA WITH MISAPPROPRIATION THEN CARRY OUT OBAMA'S

IMPEACHMENT ON 3/1/12, AS SET FORTH BY ORDER OF IMPEACHMENT!

http://lnk.ms/YgBkH

Here is the bankrupting of the tax dollar by Obama's speculative

budgeting: our annual revenue trend is $2.5 trillion (in billions)

*$721 Social Security

*$457 Medicare

*$284 Medicaid

(CHIP included, and after 10yr. audit, it is unsustainable increasing

87% for cost of program)

#Privatization of Medicare/Medicaid needs to occur/return these

programs to state level where people are paying their sales taxes!

= $1.462 trillion for these 3 entitlement programs alone

+

War-time Defense

*$719

= $2.181 The primary purpose of the budget set forth by the

Constitution is to provide for the common defense FIRST...

+

Welfare/unemployment

$577

= $2.758 trillion, which is over budget $258 billion dollars

+

Interest on it

$188

= $2.946 trillion, including interest

Payroll Tax Revenue is $500 billion, Obama wants to give you an

illusion of a tax break, but you will only see a return of $10 billion

in spending for this break!

40% OF THE TAX DOLLAR IS SPENT ON DEFENSE

40% IS SPENT ON HEALTHCARE AND WELFARE ALONE, AS PEOPLE ARE NOT CARING

FOR THEIR OWN BODIES BY BUYING THEIR OWN FOOD AND MEDICINE

This is why it is so difficult to squeeze any money out of the $2.5

trillion annual revenue for infrastructure when Defense and

Entitlements have already burnt the candle at both ends, and why

education suffers: 20% is leftover, for Judiciary/Education, Patents,

and Diplomacy!

$2.946 x .40 = $1.17840 on entitlements, and they are running over

budget by 457+384+577 =

$1.318 trillion on health care and welfare

over budget by $1.318-$1.17840 = $1.13960 over 40% on health care and

welfare, which is in the diplomacy segment appropriation

http://lnk.ms/Wb6nV

of which, there is only $80 billion dollars, over budget $30 billion

on that with no foreign aid or travel.

In order to adhere to budget, we must #Privatize Medicare/Medicaid,

which will free up 40% that can be spent on education and

infrastructure, without the worry of sequestration on the military and

still adhering to law on the 2011 Budget Control Act.

Government must get out of the business of the Church: the federal

government is not a grocery store, a health insurance company, or a

hospital which all provide private services that are expenses of

private citizens.

The Tea Party rests that he has been impeached. It is up to Congress

to remove him from Office, but for all intent and purposes, he has

been stripped of power.

Ayotte Backs "No Budget, No Pay Act"

Bill would dock congressional pay unless budget, appropriations bills passed on time

Apr 16, 2012

WASHINGTON, D.C. -Continuing her efforts to force Congress to pass a responsible budget plan, U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) announced today that she is cosponsoring the "No Budget, No Pay Act," legislation that would dock pay for Members of Congress for failure to pass a budget resolution and regular appropriations bills before the start of the federal fiscal year. The "No Budget, No Pay Act," introduced by Senator Dean Heller (R-NV), would prohibit U.S. Treasury funds from paying the salaries of Members of Congress during any period of time after October 1 of any year that the budget and appropriations processes are not completed. The bill also bars retroactive pay for any period of time determined to be in violation of the bill.

"For the third straight year, Congress has failed to pass a budget resolution by the April 15 deadline - the date by which Congress is required by law to do so. And for the past 1,083 days, the Democrat-led Senate has failed to pass a budget resolution. Since that time, Washington has added $4.4 trillion to the debt," said Senator Ayotte, a member of the Senate Budget Committee. "It's time to hold Congress accountable, and this commonsense legislation forces Members of Congress to make a simple choice - do our jobs and pass a budget, or don't get paid."

Congress is required by the 1974 Congressional Budget Act to complete action on a budget resolution by April 15, but there is no penalty for inaction. In October, Senator Ayotte introduced bipartisan legislation with Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) that would require Congress to pass a budget resolution by April 15 or suspend other business.

Boehner on CNN: No Reason to Wait, Let’s Address Spending-Driven Debt Now
Posted by Don Seymour
May 16, 2012

General
In an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett following remarks to the Paul G. Peterson Foundation’s Fiscal Summit, Speaker John Boehner said there’s no reason to wait until we reach the debt limit to enact real spending cuts and reforms – the American people are ready, Republicans are ready – “let’s go.”
The only stumbling blocks are President Obama and the Democratic-controlled Senate who appear afraid – or unwilling – to seriously address America’s economic challenges. As Burnett pointed out, top Democrats are already criticizing what Stanford economist John B. Taylor dubbed the “Boehner principle” – that spending cuts and reforms (not tax hikes) exceed any debt limit increase – as a “line in the sand.” Boehner responded:

watch video here:

http://www.speaker.gov/general/boehner-cnn-no-reason-wait-lets-address-spending-driven-debt-now

“It is a line in the sand because Washington has kicked the can down the road, kicked the can down the road, kicked the can down the road and the American people think we're crazy. They're re-- ready for Washington to take action. I'm here. I'm ready to do it. Let's go.”
Boehner explained how the tax hikes demanded by Democrats would only do more damage to our economy and put more people out of work. Instead, Boehner said “We've gotta have real economic growth and we have to have real controls on spending.”
The House already started by passing a responsible budget that cuts spending and preserves our biggest entitlement programs for our children and grandchildren. And last week, the House voted to reduce the deficit by additional $242.8 billion while protecting our troops and their families. But bills like these and others that create a better environment for job growth are being blocked by Senate Democrats.

FROM JOSEPH FARAH'S G2 BULLETIN

SYRIAN OPPOSITION GETS SHOULDER-FIRED MISSILES

Gadhafi's lost supplies also turning up in hands of terrorists
WASHINGTON – There remains frustration in trying to track down up to 20,000 missing shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles taken out of the bunkers during the waning days of the regime of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, according to a report in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.
Now that they have disappeared, and despite a U.S. program worth tens of millions of dollars to try and relocate them, only 5,000 have been turned in.
Concern is that many of them were acquired by al-Qaida elements in Libya and surrounding countries. Increasingly, intelligence sources also are seeing these weapons wind up in the hands of African jihadists such as the al-Qaida affiliated Boko Haram in Nigeria or the Tuareg tribesmen in Niger and Chad.
Those could be used against commercial airlines. Because civilian airlines would be a likely target, there also is concern that Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb may have acquired many of them and could potentially be smuggling them into Europe. That could be a potential threat to civilian airlines flying there.
That results in the possibility of catastrophic costs should those who have the missiles unleash them on civilian aircraft at any point.
Now, informed sources tell G2Bulletin that al-Qaida elements said to be infiltrating into Syria from Lebanon to join the opposition at the urging of central al-Qaida leader Ayman Mohammed Rabie al-Zawahiri also may have acquired many of the missing shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles.
Al-Qaida elements also appear to be infiltrating from the Western-most provinces of Iraq – which are predominantly Sunni – and going directly into Syria from there, possibly with some of these shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles.
In addition, the Palestinian camp, Ein el-Hilweh near Saida, or Sidon, south of Beirut, also is known to have a concentration of al-Qaida elements, something which even the Iranian-backed Shi’ite Hezbollah also is concerned about.
Sen. Lieberman urged Lebanon to help Syrian opposition
MAY 2, 2012 ⋅ 2:46 PM ⋅
FILED UNDER LEBANON, LIEBERMAN, SYRIAU.S. Senator Joseph Lieberman urged Lebanon on Wednesday to help the Syrian opposition and do more for refugees fleeing the violence in their home country while voicing understanding of Lebanon’s dissociation policy toward events in Syria.
Lieberman ( CT Ind), who who arrived in Lebanon on Tuesday from Saudi Arabia at the head of delegation, was flown by helicopter early Wednesday to the north Akkar town of Andaqit to inspect the Lebanon-Syria border crossing of Bqayaa in Wadi Khaled. During the two-hour tour, he met with several displaced Syrian families at the residence of the former municipal chief of al-Moqaibleh in the area of Bqayaa.

A statement released by the US embassy said that Senator Lieberman , a ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee completed his visit to Lebanon on Wednesday as part of a tour of the Middle East region.

During his visit , Lieberman met with high-ranking Lebanese officials, including President Michel Suleiman, Prime Minister Najib Mikati and Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblatt, and discussed bilateral relations as well as the situation in Syria, the statement added.

His visit coincided with that of U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Jeffrey Feltman, who arrived in Lebanon Tuesday from London. Jumblatt hosted a dinner in their honor on Tuesday at his residence in Clemenceau, Beirut in the presence of , U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Maura Connelly, Cabinet ministers Ghazi Aridi, Wael Abu Faour and Alaeddine Terro, as well as PSP deputy foreign affairs official Doreid Yaghi and Jumblatt’s son, Taymour.

Last month Lieberman and US Senator John McCain called for arming the Syrian opposition during a visit to a Syrian refugee camp in Turkey

Where the money comes from

Contributions to campaigns and super PACs greater than $200
Large states like New York, California, Florida and Texas provide the biggest source of campaign contributions. However, some candidates do better elsewhere around the country, especially in their home states where they already have a network of supporters.

Some candidates rely on legions of grassroots supporters giving a little bit of money while other politicians collect large checks from a smaller number of wealthy contributors. President Obama has been able to tap very large contributions by raising some of his funds for the Democratic Party, which can accept more than $60,000 from one person over the 2-year campaign. Candidate's campaigns are limited to $2,500 from one individual for the primary election and $2,500 for the period after. However, individuals and organizations can give unlimited amounts to super PACs supporting individual campaigns.

Posted on May 19, 2012 by Sharon Glass

Remarks by Sharon Glass: Along with all of this “big” money there are many efforts of grassroots groups (not even mentioned) to elect the right leaders. We are all aware that money can buy someone an office, and money is the main focus of this article.
It is apparent that not much attention is being paid to what is happening in the election process through thousands of grassroots groups working quietly all across this country. Many are going door-to-door, churches are coming together to encourage their members to vote, and people are talking one on one about candidates. Yes, money will get more information out on a candidate, but it is not money that walks into the voting booth, it is

We the People, so We the People need to be doing all we can to see that people get out to vote.
If some of the recent race victories mentioned in this article are any indication of what could happen in August and November, it looks like there could be another ”conservative” takeover in the upcoming elections.

While I was telling the heads of state how to save the world, RuChelle entertained the little women with a tour of our house. For some reason, Angela Merkel’s wife didn’t show up.

RuChelle said “Next, I’ll show you the East Room, where I had a group of fatties sweat all over the rug for a very popular American television show. And then there’s the Blue Room, where I played a game of tug-of-war with a very popular American television star.”

Laureen Harper, the Canadian PM’s wife turned to Valerie Trierweiler, the partner of my new BFF, Francois Hollande, and said “N'est pas cette robe laide?”

Valerie sniffed “Oui. Elle ressemble à un gros porc.”

RuChelle snapped “Hey, quit talkin’ that froggie crap! You’re supposed to be listening to ME. This is MY house!”

Laureen said “I’m just translating. In Canada, we always say everything in English and French.”

RuChelle snapped “Well, alright. As long as I’m the center of attention.”

Laureen said “Oh, don’t worry. You are.”

RuChelle snapped “Good. After I show you the Blue Room, I’ll show you where world-renowned celebrities come to play concerts for me. Laureen, be sure to tell Valerie how cool and popular my husband and I are.”

Laureen turned to Valerie and said “Son mari est très gai.”

Valerie said “Oui, et Il est un connard.”

RuChelle smiled. “Yes he is!”

Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley The priority is defense, we will revisit the funding issue on #VAWA if needed, but please include the language of #SB1925

1m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley the wording of #SB1925 is what I want we can keep the cost-effective provisions with #HR4970 as we need to table that anyway

2m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley #HR4970 does not uphold the spirit of the law unless judges or law enforcement do, and they don't -- we need #SB1925 wording

3m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley The law stands on its own that we will not tolerate ANY abuse, not just we'll fund investigations of it that won't get done!!

3m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley If you pass #SB1925 the woman does not have to haul someone into court or police to make reports that they won't make

4m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley That's what we're saying: the legislation is cost effective but it does not meet the effectiveness of what it was written for

5m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley I mean really: if you designate #SB1925 then I have legal recourse, if not then I have to serve someone at a prison address

6m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley that is why language of #SB1925 is necessary, for the cost of restraining orders and to spell out legal definitions #TITLEIX

9m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley An impoverished woman, a weak woman, and a woman loaded down with children is often the root of most existing crime *KEY*

9m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley Also that without the *language* law enforcement can pick and choose what to investigate rather than focus on the women

11m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty
@ChuckGrassley I suppose you will tell me *language* unnecessary but it forces women to cough $180 Protective Orders when they don't have it

13m Tea Party Chief @2012_TeaParty

A day of dramatic, emotional debate in the House of Representatives gave way to a narrow but largely partisan vote to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act on Wednesday.

Top 9 reasons Congress is broken

Senate Republicans plead for a budget as frustrations boil over

Is Washington careening toward another debt limit crisis?

VAWA, passing 222-205 with 23 Republicans in opposition and six Democrats in favor, will now join another once-uncontroversial measure – the transportation bill – in a conference committee between the two chambers.
The act provides some $660 million in funding over five years for programs ranging from protecting victims of domestic violence and community violence prevention to legal aid for survivors of violence. Historically a light political lift, VAWA breezed through Congress in its two prior reauthorizations.
RECOMMENDED: Top 9 reasons Congress is broken
But just like the 2012 transportation bill, a bipartisan measure passed first in the Senate was initially blocked by House Republican leaders – and bitter partisan rancor followed.
Democrats said the GOP’s bill – which removed Senate-passed provisions relating to extending protections to Native Americans, lesbian, gay, and transgender Americans and illegal immigrants – showed a shocking lack of concern on the part of House Republicans.
“The indifference in this bill toward some, just some, is as chilling and callous as anything I have seen come before this Congress in modern times,” said Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D) of New York at a press conference Wednesday. “Do they not bleed, and bruise, and are injured just as much as anyone else?”
Republicans accused Democrats of using the bill to back their claim that Republicans were waging a “war on women.”
“Can we stop the election-year gimmicks? Can we stop these manufactured wars that pit one group of Americans against another group of Americans?” thundered freshman Rep. Trey Gowdy(R) of South Carolina on the House floor Wednesday.
The White House, for its part, supports the Senate measure and said it would veto the House bill because the measure “rolls back existing law and removes long-standing protections for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault – crimes that predominantly affect women.”
The House and Senate versions of VAWA have several key differences:

The Senate adds language that explicitly mentions gay and transgender Americans for protection, while the House version is gender neutral. Republicans contend that their measure allows all Americans to receive protection because it does not specify who qualifies for various programs. Democrats, however, say that local law enforcement could use the lack of specificity to discriminate against gay or transgender people.

The House bill does not include a Senate provision that would allow Native American women to take American citizens who abuse them to court within the tribal legal system. Republicans say that the Senate measure is unconstitutional and replace it with a proposal that allows Native American women to apply for protection orders from local US courts. Democrats contend that without the Senate’s proposals, Native American women abused on an Indian reservation are often left without legal recourse.

The House bill does not allow for a path to citizenship for illegal women who have been abused and agree to cooperate with the police investigation of the crime. Moreover, it holds the cap on temporary visas offered to women cooperating in legal investigations to 10,000, below the Senate’s increased 15,000 level. Republicans say the citizenship provision is akin to amnesty for illegal immigrants. Democrats, on the other hand, say that women fearing deportation may never come forward to take abusers off the street under the House bill.

Perhaps emblematic of the highly partisan atmosphere around a bill that once enjoyed widespread agreement are freshman Rep. Sandy Adams (R) of Florida and Rep. Gwen Moore (D) ofWisconsin. Congresswoman Adams, the GOP bill’s sponsor, and Congresswoman Moore, who sponsored the House version of the Senate legislation, have heart-wrenching stories of their own experience with domestic violence and sexual assault, respectively. And both said the bill should not be subject to partisan political concerns.
So had the two women ever crossed the aisle to speak about the bill?

“No,” Moore said.
After the vote, however, the two women embraced on the House floor.
Next, House and Senate negotiators must find a way to embrace a common version of the bill that can pass both the House and Senate.

Top 9 reasons Congress is broken

Congress, hovering at barely 10 percent approval in national polls, is empirically gridlocked: More than halfway through its term, the 112th Congress has approved just 106 bills, versus 906 in the actual "Do Nothing Congress" of 1947-48 – and is filled with such rancor that moderates such as Sen. Olympia Snowe (R) of Maine are fleeing the place.
Nearly three dozen D.C. insiders recently gathered at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars to discuss why. These include the former Senate parliamentarian, former members of Congress, and longtime Hill staffers. From that conversation comes this list of the nine toughest problems facing Congress today.

1. Insufficient presidential leadership
Strange to start a list of problems with Congress by pointing the finger at another branch of government, perhaps. But one of Congress’s main problems is a lack of presidential leadership: For better or for worse, the president is a major part of the national political agenda.
“The president is always the leader,” said former Rep. Dan Glickman (D) of Kansas, who also served as Agriculture secretary in the Clinton administration and as chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America. It’s up to the president to set “where the direction of the country is going to go. The Congress may tinker with it or Congress may stop it. We can’t talk about the Congress without talking about the president.”
Just like members of Congress, presidents often seek advantage by campaigning as “outsiders” untainted by time in Washington, D.C. While that doesn’t mean presidents can’t be effective working with consummate insiders, what Congress needs is a president with a plan. Without an executive branch keyed in to working with Congress, the potential for politically perilous legislation to cross the finish line with the president’s signature fades to black.
President George W. Bush and President Obama both came to Washington hoping to change Washington’s culture, says former Rep. Vin Weber (R) of Minnesota, now a top lobbyist and a GOP fundraiser. They just went about it the wrong way.
“They thought they could do it through force of personality,” Mr. Weber says. "You’ve got to have real honest-to-God political skills, and you have to work it every day.
"The next president has to realize, 'This is a nitty-gritty political problem, and I have to put together real plans to achieve bipartisanship,' " he adds.
The president who got this right? “We achieved a great deal under Bill Clinton,” Weber says. “It wasn’t because there wasn’t partisanship. But Clinton understood how to work the process.”

AND WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS TRUE, THIS IS INDEED A PERCEPTION THAT WE CAN OVERCOME:

2. Republicans at fault, especially those newcomers
Two Washington scholars set cable television tongues a-wagging with their boldly provocative op-ed in the Washington Post, “Let’s just say it: The Republicans are the problem.”
And these aren’t two lefty partisan hacks: One of the authors, Norman Ornstein, is a widely quoted scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. The other, Thomas Mann, is a longtime Congress-watcher, working out of the Brookings Institution in Washington.
Their critique of the contemporary GOP, published April 27 in the Washington Post, boils down to this:
“The GOP has become an insurgent outlier in American politics. It is ideologically extreme; scornful of compromise; unmoved by conventional understanding of facts, evidence and science; and dismissive of the legitimacy of its political opposition,” they write. “When one party moves this far from the mainstream, it makes it nearly impossible for the political system to deal constructively with the country’s challenges.”
This is music, of course, to Democrats’ ears.
“I expect Republicans to defend their right to take different positions, but at some point, at some time, we as a country have to actually figure out a way to solve our problems,” said former Rep. Tom Downey (D) of New York. “Dealing with that will need the energy and courage of two political parties working together, not one trying to stab the other in the heart.”
It’s not so much that Democrats are pure as driven snow, Mr. Mann and Mr. Ornstein write, but that they’ve largely hunkered down.
“Democrats are hardly blameless, and they have their own extreme wing and their own predilection for hardball politics. But these tendencies do not routinely veer outside the normal bounds of robust politics. If anything, under the presidencies of Clinton and Obama, the Democrats have become more of a status-quo party,” they write.
Where Democrats clearly didn’t adore George W. Bush, they “worked hand in glove with the Republican president on the No Child Left Behind Act, provided crucial votes in the Senate for his tax cuts, joined with Republicans for all the steps taken after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and supplied the key votes for the Bush administration’s financial bailout at the height of the economic crisis in 2008. The difference is striking.”
Are Republicans the problem? Both parties, without a doubt, engage in political knife fights with few policy gains at stake. And it's not as if Republicans aren’t popular across the country.
“Nothing says marginal extremism like holding the US House, most state houses, most governorships, and a plurality of national party ID,” wrote RedState.com managing editor Erick Erickson, in a blog critiquing the argument of Ornstein and Mann on April 30.
And it isn’t as if Republicans are operating in a vacuum.

“I do think there are bigger forces than one party over the other, there are bigger forces than extremism versus moderation, there are some fundamentals about the environment in which Congress operates” more significant than single-party obstruction, says Julian Zelizer, a congressional historian at Princeton University.
But Mann and Ornstein insist: “Today, thanks to the GOP, compromise has gone out the window in Washington.”

3. Too few with institutional knowledge
The average tenure of members is at a historic high for the Senate and near a historic high for the House, yet the perception is widespread that institutional knowledge is declining. What gives?
First, members don’t sustain positions on committees as long as they used to. Whereas chairmen of congressional committees previously could stand for decades, Republicans in the House, for example, instituted rules limiting chairmen to six-year terms.
Says Princeton's Mr. Zelizer, who has studied earlier congressional periods, “There was a sort of insider knowledge because of the durability of these positions. People knew each other, they had fought the same battles over decades ... they know how they ticked, they know a lot about their opponents and their allies ... [they] cooperated, often behind closed doors, and gave the culture of Congress a very different feel than it [has] today.”
When members know less about policy, the argument goes, they’re less effective at deciding between policy alternatives and perhaps more likely to kowtow to the wishes of party leadership because they lack strong policy positions.
“There’s less autonomy [today] for committee chairs – people who would serve a decade or more and develop very thick personal networks and institutional knowledge over the course of that period,” says Zelizer.
Insider networks and knowledge built by living near Capitol Hill and spending social time with other legislators play terribly on the campaign trail. But such activities did allow legislators to get to know one another and build knowledge of congressional powers and precedents, especially what is involved in working across party lines.
“The fact that members of Congress don’t really live here anymore ... has changed the House particularly, and it has changed it in multiple negative ways,” said Mr. Weber, the former Minnesota representative. “Members don’t have an opportunity outside of business hours to get to know their colleagues, particularly their colleagues on the other side of the aisle, and it takes away from the time you can spend to think about doing things [legislatively].”

4. More fundraising, more problems
When Tom Downey arrived in Congress in 1974, he had spent $64,000 to get elected, “and like a good Democrat I raised $43,000.” The gap between the two seemed hopelessly large to then-Representative Downey, from New York, and he held two Washington fundraisers over the next year to close out his campaign debt.
Then-Rep. Dan Rostenkowski (D) of Illinois chided him for what was, for the time, an aggressive Washington fundraising schedule.
“‘Two fundraisers? How many are you going to do here?’” Rostenkowski asked, as Mr. Downey tells it. “He said, ‘You need to go home and raise the money where you should be raising it.’ ”
Today, members can handle two fundraisers a day without blinking. A straightforward equation describes how money went from being a huge part of the political process to a massive part, argues historian Zelizer: Rising costs plus campaign-finance reforms limiting donations from single sources equal an explosion of the time members of Congress need to raise money.
Even when members succeed in stocking their campaign war chests, the growth of "super political-action committees" (super PACs), which can spend unlimited sums, means candidates live in fear of a PAC swooping in near Election Day with millions of dollars in advertising “that you have no control over,” Downey says. “This is no way to run elections.”
The need for greater and greater campaign funds, moreover, may be spilling over into the legislative process.
“Choosing committee and subcommittee chairs in the House is sometimes based more on members’ fundraising abilities than on their expertise or seniority,” Don Wolfensberger, director of the Congress Project at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, testified before a Senate Oversight committee hearing in March. “And then, once they become chairs, they are assessed specified amounts by their campaign committees to contribute to party coffers.”
Want to climb the leadership ladder on the Hill? Better be ready to raise the big bucks, too – another change in emphasis over past Congresses, Downey says.
“To talk about cultural change would be to so understate the way that money has influenced politics,” Downey says. “In the '70s and the '80s, we selected our leaders because we thought they would be good ones. We didn’t select them to be our leaders in Congress because they were the best fundraisers.”

5. Hyperactive news media
If intense media attention has cleared out the smoke-filled rooms of old-style politics of dealmaking, it has also made it harder to cut deal deals anywhere, say some observers of Capitol Hill.
“We now have a media culture which is ongoing, instantaneous, where there is very little space for [lawmaker] deliberations to take place without them being leaked to the media,” Zelizer says.
Media representatives used to prepare all day for the evening broadcast or the final deadline, a schedule that seems deliberate compared with today's rapid-fire, minute-to-minute competition for the latest tidbits and utterances from around the Capitol, says Zelizer. That electrified news cycle comes courtesy of 24-hour cable news stations that have partisan perspectives and of the end in 1987 of the Federal Communications Commission's "fairness doctrine," which had required broadcast media to show both sides of a debate.
“This hypercompetitive environment made it more difficult for legislators to find insulated space to negotiate deals and lent itself to accusations of scandal and brutal partisan battles,” Zelizer writes in a recent paper on the subject. “Internet sites such as Politico covered negotiations in real time and leaks from staffers and politicians easily found their way into national visibility.”

6. The filibuster
The Senate filibuster – the parliamentary procedure that lets a single senator halt any legislation lacking the 60 votes needed to overcome his or her disapproval – has left many a bill to die in the upper chamber.
But use of the filibuster – and the associated "cloture" vote – has become a choke point in Senate business.
“The filibuster rule is abused in a way that I think no one ever really contemplated,” says Downey.
Want proof? Votes on cloture – the vote to overcome a filibuster – have skyrocketed in recent years. The last two sessions of Congress have produced 137 and 139 cloture votes, respectively. Before then, no Senate had gone much over 80. It took the Senate 57 years (1917 to 1974) to cross a total of 100 cloture votes.
A political system with so many "veto points," such as the filibuster, is a key problem, says David Karol, a political scientist at the University of Maryland. Where some might blame today's political parties, Mr. Karol says such fractiousness among parties was common throughout American history. "These political parties are natural and normal, and so it's not that easy to change them," he says. "But we could at least make a government so that when people win the election as Democrats did in 2008 and as Republicans did before that, that they can govern.”
Two senior senators, Carl Levin (D) of Michigan and Lamar Alexander (R) of Tennessee, recently wrote an op-ed arguing that “self-restraint” is the key to improving the Senate and limiting the legislative shackles imposed by frequent use of the filibuster.
Why the need for self-restraint? “Frequently,” they write, “senators in the majority think those in the minority introduce amendments to delay bills or raise extraneous issues. Those in the minority think the majority unduly restricts consideration of amendments. The result is often gridlock.”
How could the filibuster, an important tool to preserve the Senate's historic function as a body that is more deliberate and more protective of the minority party’s prerogative than is the House, be adjusted to make the Senate work better?
“In exchange for allowing a bill to come to the floor without the 60-vote exercise,” they write, “every senator would agree to limit consideration of amendments to those relevant to the bill before us. Vigorous and extended debate on the substance of important bills would still take place. Senators would have ample opportunity to offer amendments. But our proposal would give senators a more effective way to deal with the issues voters expect us to consider and would help restore public confidence in the Senate.”

7. You get the Congress you vote for
Americans say they want compromise in their government. But they don’t vote for compromisers. (Case in point: Richard Lugar, the senior senator from Indiana who was ousted in May by a Republican primary challenger who vowed never to compromise with Democrats.)
That may be, in part, because they don’t have a lot of shared experiences with people unlike themselves – a consequence of what author Bill Bishop sees as the human tendency to live among people like oneself.
“People – especially Americans – hate disagreement,” writes Bill Bishop, author of “The Big Sort,” a book that examines how Americans are dividing themselves geographically. “That's why they put themselves in churches, neighborhoods, and clubs where they easily find agreement.
"It's interesting, however, that when pollsters ask about compromise, most Democrats and Republicans believe their side has given enough – that it's time for the other side to see the error of their ways. We all seem to think it's the other side that's causing the problems. So, yes, there's a lot of talk about the end of partisanship. We just don't see anybody changing neighborhoods.”
“The public’s expectations are skewed, and I hate to blame them and I’m not,” says Mr. Glickman, the former congressman from Kansas, “because they do not have this sense of common ground or shared experiences.”
Others argue that congressional districts are helped along in this "sorting" process by gerrymandering – the practice of drawing districts that are considered "safe" for one party or the other. If a district is drawn so that its voters are overwhelmingly conservative or overwhelmingly liberal, the argument goes, what's the incentive for a lawmaker elected to such a district to compromise or strike deals with the opposing party? However, many see this concern about gerrymandered districts as overstated.
How might Congress have more compromising members, given a currently uncompromising electorate?
Downey, the former representative from New York, suggests mandatory voting. Under such a system, both parties would be forced to address their messages to the widest possible audience, proponents argue.
“You have to moderate, and you have to spend some time thinking about how people who don’t agree with you are going to react to your ideas,” Downey says.

8. Interest groups rule, political parties drool
Special-interest groups are wielding too much influence on Capitol Hill, to the detriment of political parties and lawmakers' ability to focus on broad goals, say some Congress-watchers.
“Parties have flaws. But parties really have an interest in coalescing a majority, because they want to win," says Weber, the former US House member. "A lot of the problems we have in politics we have today ... are because, yes, interest groups have supplanted a lot of the functions that political parties used to play.”
In particular, Weber says, these groups box in politicians by applying lots of pressure and money, starting with the earliest stages of a prospective member's campaign.
“If you’re a Republican running for office, your goal is to get endorsed by your party, but you probably care more what the single-issue groups think,” he says. “What do the taxpayer groups think? What do the pro-life groups think?”
On the Democratic side, one could easily sub in public employee unions, environmentalists, or feminists, he adds.
And that leads to members whose concerns are more narrowly focused.
“Interest groups have a different set of motivations: They want to get more donors and more activists, and they get there by distilling their message down, not by broadening it out. And I think that explains a lot of our politics in this town,” Weber says.
And while corporate America isn’t seeking more donors or activists, it has a new outlet to pressure Congress: unlimited donations to political organizations, courtesy of the US Supreme Court's ruling in 2010 in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission.
It only makes things worse that campaign-finance laws put limits on people's donations to political parties but allow unlimited funds to flow to interest groups, he says.
“We have the worst system of all,” Weber says, “and both sides need to give a little bit to reform it and get a system that is both more palatable and [that] strengthens those institutions that have an interest in achieving a majority as opposed to [a] narrow partisan interest.”

9. Congress is back to the future
Some argue that the Congress of today is not all that different – in its political temperature and its general fractiousness – than the Congresses of yore.
The Congresses of the past 40 years may have been the aberration, a time when America's political parties were less ideologically cohesive and were divided more by region, says University of Maryland's Karol.
The Republican Party and the Democratic Party over those decades “were very abnormal if you compare [them] to other democratic, stable countries, and even in our history, where we had much more polarized parties in the 19th century,” he says.
So what’s the big deal about today?
Members of Congress have long put their own political needs ahead of the body’s institutional effectiveness, argues Mr. Wolfsenberger of the Congress Project. Likewise, politicians have long found it “easy and convenient to run for Congress by running against it. And they continue to get away with it at the polls,” Wolfsenberger wrote in an April paper.
How long can this hold up? “To that extent, at least,” Wolfsenberger writes, “the culture hasn’t changed all that much since Members first started running for Congress at the beginning of the Republic.”
Zelizer broadly agrees that the 112th Congress is largely in line with historical precedent, but he wonders whether it is bumping up against an unfamiliar question: Is Capitol Hill so polarized, so consumed with fundraising, hounded by interest groups, and lacking institutional knowledge that getting back to normal, from a historical perspective, would be a bad, bad thing?
Will “routine decisions become impossible?” he asks. “Is that the danger zone we’re now entering?
“I see no reason why the last two years don’t get repeated the next two years,” Downey says.

OR MAYBE THE LAST TWO YEARS GET REPEATED AGAIN UNTIL THE PRESENT AND FUTURE IS NOT LIKE THE PAST 10 YEARS...

Glenn’s take on the latest birther claims
Friday, May 18, 2012 at 3:23 PM EDT
The birthers are back. Why? Yesterday Breitbart.com released a biography used by Barack Obama’s literary agent from 1991 describing him as ‘born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii,’ through 2007 when it was corrected to say ‘born in Hawaii.’ This morning, Glenn gave his take on what has been released and the reaction to it thus far.

Glenn, who has been pretty vocal about his opposition to the ‘birtherism’ movement since its start, wasn’t swayed in his opinion by the release of this document. Glenn saw the length this document was allowed to run inaccurately as more of an Elizabeth Warren type of move, where progressives try and make themselves more appealing by the the left’s love of multiculturalism. Obama was pumping up his ethnic connections for personal gain, probably unaware that his short term goal for recognition in 1991 would come back to haunt him among the birther movement.

For the past couple of weeks Glenn has been breaking news on Barack Obama’s “fairy tale life” and the inconsistencies in the stories he tells about it. “I think this verifies another piece of the storyline of what this guy will say and do,” Glenn said of the news that broke this morning. “He’s Elizabeth Warren to the thousandth power.”

Glenn explained that while he does not have a literary agent, he does have a speaking agent. Every year they publish a booklet, similar to the one that was released with President Obama’s biography, that goes out to all of the people, corporations, etc. that are looking for speakers.
“I know that if somebody saw ‘Glenn Beck born in Bonne, Germany,’ we wouldn’t have called and gotten it pulled. It probably would have run for a year, but it wouldn’t have run for sixteen consecutive years,” Glenn said.

Glenn compared this to the Elizabeth Warren story that is currently in the news where she claimed she was a Native American for ten years. They think anything that is radical, diverse, international, etc. is “cool.” “That’s absolutely how they are. It’s a badge of honor if she’s a Native American,” Glenn said.
“Barack Obama wrote about this in in his book. He used the name Barack because it was cool,” Stu said.
“It goes back to what we’ve been saying the last couple of weeks. The guy’s life story is fiction. It’s fiction,” Glenn said. “He’ll create anything he has to be create depending on who he’s with, what he’s doing, so he can fit in, and he can be the star. Is that unreasonable to believe?”

“Not at all,” Stu responded. “Elizabeth Warren is the perfect example.”
To further make the point that he doesn’t believe this document does anything to negate the president’s birth certificate or any other document that confirms his birth in Hawaii, Glenn gave the example of his Italian in-laws. Glenn’s wife’s parents are Italian.
“I’m willing to give which they would never do for me. I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt because I have heard my in laws, I have heard Tania say ‘I’m from Italy; my whole family is from Italy.’ No you’re not. Your grandparents but your mom and dad weren’t. Your grandparents were. I understand it in context I understand it. They are from Italy. What? I mean that’s the way that some people talk in the right context. Now will they ever be this kind to me? No.”
In the end though, who really benefits from this story? Barack Obama! All it does is continue to take attention away from the economy and the destructive path he has put this country on. The supporters of the birther theory are used to make conservatives as a whole look radical and conspiratorial, and it hurts the efforts to vote him out of office in 2012. Take the biography as an example of his efforts to appear “cool” back in 1991, not as a missing key in proving he wasn’t a natural born citizen.

A state official in Arizona has asked Hawaii for verification of the information on Barack Obama’s birth certificate, the document that Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s special investigative team has concluded may be a forgery.
Members of the Surprise, Ariz., Tea Party, who petitioned Arpaio to investigate Obama’s eligibility, say they are awaiting word from the state secretary of state regarding whether Obama’s name will be on the 2012 presidential ballot in Arizona.

Secretary of State Ken Bennett had promised to ask Hawaii officials for verification of Obama’s documentation, vowing that if answers are not forthcoming, Obama’s name will not be on the ballot.

The assurance came in an email to various constituents in Arizona who had contacted Bennett’s office expressing concern that the name of an ineligible candidate would be presented to voters in November.
Sign the petition now to show members of Congress just how many Americans demand constitutional integrity.
“Because of the importance and profile of the president’s case, and at the request of many constituents, I have gone the extra step of asking the state of Hawaii to verify the facts contained in his birth certificate,” Bennett wrote in response to concerns last month. “Hawaii is bound by their own statutes to provide such verifications to other state officials in their official duties.
“With all due respect, the [Arpaio] investigation has not proven anything other than raised probable cause that the birth certificate posted on the White House website ‘may be’ a forgery. The next lawful step would be for the sheriff’s office to turn their findings over to the county attorney for prosecution,” he continued. “Evidence would be brought on both sides and a judge should issue a decision.
“Whether or not that happens, if Hawaii can’t or won’t provide verification of the president’s birth certificate, I will not put his name on the ballot,” he wrote.
“I can tell from the tone and language of your letters that the only acceptable outcome for you is that his name not be on the ballot, period. That may be what happens, but under my watch, it won’t happen based on opinions, petitions, probability or pledges to support or oppose me in the 2014 governor’s race. My oath of office is to uphold the Constitution and laws of our state and country, and I’m going to do that by following the law,” he said.
Amen, said Brian Reilly, the Surprise Tea Party member who originated the idea of asking Arpaio for an investigation.
He also was part of the group that sought from the state legislature this year a requirement that presidential candidates document their eligibility. The proposal that fell by the wayside despite some 3,000 signatures of people endorsing the plan.
Reilly told WND that those who contacted Bennett are concerned about the integrity of the state ballot and “whether their votes mean anything.” He argued, as have others, that having an ineligible candidate on the ballot destroys the integrity of the entire election process.
Reilly said he’s confident the system will produce the truth eventually. And Tea Party members are awaiting word on whether Hawaii has provided the information Bennett has sought.
“In my mind, no way can (Hawaii) certify or confirm what that is,” he said, referring to the birth certificate image posted online by Obama. “We actually need to see the hard copy.”
One constituent message to Bennett said, “There is a great deal of weight that has been placed onto your shoulders, base[d] on the requirements that your office has and can impose … on anyone that wishes to run for president. All that we ask is that you do your absolute best, to [e]nsure that everyone who[se] name appears on the ballot in the 2012 president election, is eligible to become president if elected.”

Freshly updated! Find out what Obama’s story truly is, in “Where’s the REAL Birth Certificate?” by Jerome Corsi. Or join in the billboard campaign that seeks the answer to “Where’s the Real Birth Certificate?”
Bennett’s communications director, Matt Roberts, told WND today that the secretary of state indeed has asked Hawaii for the answers. In fact, he said, there was a conversation about proper procedures to submit the request.
“We are awaiting their response,” he said.
In the past, the state of Hawaii has been inconsistent in making statements about Obama’s birth records.
After Obama released the online image in 2011, state officials said the original was in state files and it remained confidential.

The image released April 27 by the White House was described by Obama administration officials as “proof positive” of Obama’s Hawaiian birth.

Image released by the White House April 27, 2011

At that time, officials in Hawaii’s health department and governor’s office refused to provide confirmation to WND that the image released by the White House accurately represented the birth documentation in the state’s custody.
State officials later refused to respond to a subpoena requesting the birth record, citing confidentiality. The request came from California attorney Orly Taitz in her lawsuit against the commissioner of the Social Security Administration over records related to Obama.
The case brought by Taitz was seeking the original application for Obama’s Social Security number, a document that could reveal information about the president’s early life relevant to his eligibility to be president.
However, Hawaii Deputy Attorney General Jill T. Nagamine refused to respond, according to documents obtained by WND.
“These subpoenas would require disclosure of privileged or other protected matter, and there is no exception that applies to allow disclosure to you,” she told Taitz. “Vital statistics records, such as birth certificates, are protected by strict confidentiality requirements under state law.”
Earlier, Hawaii’s former Health Department director, Chiyome Fukino, the one official who claimed to have examined the original birth document under lock and key in Hawaii, was interviewed by NBC News’ national investigative correspondent Michael Isikoff. Isikoff said Fukino told him she had seen the original birth certificate and that it was “half typed and half handwritten.”
However, the document released by the White House was entirely typed. Only the signatures and two dates at the very bottom were “handwritten.”
At the same time, Hawaii officials repeatedly have pointed to a state law that prevents them from releasing state records.
Fukino moved unwillingly to center stage in the Obama birth certificate controversy after issuing a statement on Oct. 31, 2008, in which she stated: “Therefore, I as Director for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
Below is a screen copy of the Fukino press release:

Later, in a separate statement, Fukino said, “I and Dr. Alvin Onaka have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
But those with questions have pointed out that neither statement revealed what the “record” or “certificate” says or clarified many of the questions raised over the issue. Do the “original vital records” and “original birth certificate” indicate a Hawaii birth or an overseas birth?
Adding fuel to the fire has been Obama’s persistent refusal to release documents that could provide answers and his appointment of lawyers to defend against all requests for his documentation.
Among the documents not yet made public by Obama are his kindergarten records, high school school records, Occidental College records, Columbia University records, Columbia thesis, Harvard Law School records, Harvard Law Review articles, scholarly articles from the University of Chicago, passport, medical records, files from his years as an Illinois state senator, his Illinois State Bar Association records, any baptism records and his adoption records.

PETITION URGING CONGRESS TO INVESTIGATE OBAMA’S ELIGIBILITY

PETITION DEMANDING THAT CONGRESS OPEN AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION OF BARACK OBAMA’S CONSTITUTIONAL ELIGIBILITY TO SERVE AS PRESIDENT, IN LIGHT OF THE FIRST OFFICIAL LAW ENFORCEMENT PROBE INTO THE MATTER DISCOVERING “PROBABLE CAUSE” THAT BOTH OBAMA’S BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND SELECTIVE SERVICE REGISTRATION FORM ARE FORGERIES.

To: All members of the U.S. Congress:

Whereas, the first official U.S. law enforcement investigation into Barack Obama’s legal eligibility for the presidency, led by Maricopa County, Ariz., Sheriff Joe Arpaio and involving a six-month investigation by three professional criminal investigators and two attorneys, established “probable cause” that the document released with great fanfare by the White House April 27, 2011, as Obama’s “long-form birth certificate” is a forgery;

Whereas, specifically, these investigators, after interviewing dozens of witnesses, examining hundreds of documents, and taking numerous sworn statements from witnesses around the world, including multiple document experts, concluded that said “birth certificate” did not originate in a paper format, but was created – that is, forged – as an electronic file on a computer;

Whereas, the Arpaio-led law-enforcement investigation cited numerous experts demonstrating that an additional fraud was allegedly committed in the forgery of Barack Obama’s Selective Service registration card;

Whereas, the investigation also found that, according to a sworn affidavit by the longtime mailman for the parents of ex-Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers, Ayers’ mother enthusiastically claimed she had helped pay for the Harvard Law School education of “foreign student” Barack Obama;

Whereas, Arpaio’s lead investigator Michael Zullo explained at a March 1 press conference that the 1961 Hawaiian newspaper “announcements” of Barack Obama’s birth confirm nothing, since the investigators “can prove beyond a doubt” that these newspapers also announced arrivals of foreign babies as well as native-born; and that the investigators even possess “documented evidence of two adopted individuals who were breathing three years prior” to their supposed Hawaii “birth” and subsequent newspaper “birth announcements”;

Whereas, the investigation determined that immigration files in the National Archives recording overseas arrivals into Hawaii are missing from one particular week – the week of Obama’s birthday, August 4, 1961;

Whereas, , lead investigator Mike Zullo also said his team believes the Hawaii Department of Health has engaged in a systematic effort to hide from public inspection any original 1961 birth records for Obama it may have in its possession;

Whereas, investigators have advised Sheriff Arpaio they believe at least two crimes of fraud were committed: 1) The White House allegedly created a forgery it claimed was an officially produced governmental birth record; and 2) the White House allegedly presented to the residents of Maricopa County, Ariz. – and to the entire American public – a forgery represented as “proof positive” of President Obama’s authentic 1961 Hawaii long-form birth certificate;

Whereas, Sheriff Arpaio said March 1: “The president can put all this to rest quite easily. All he has to do is demand the Hawaii Department of Health release to the American public and to a panel of certified court-authorized forensic examiners all original 1961 paper, microfilm and computer birth records the Hawaii Department of Health has in its possession”;

Whereas, Arpaio concluded: “Absent the authentication of Hawaii Department of Health 1961 birth records for Barack Obama, there is no other proof he was born anywhere within the United States”;

Whereas, despite a virtual media blackout on the issue, repeated national polls show that almost half of registered U.S. voters remain unconvinced that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is authentic:

We, the undersigned, demand that the 112th Congress immediately undertake a full and impartial investigation into the constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to serve as president of the United States. Despite the fact that anyone expressing concern over this issue is ridiculed as a “conspiracist” and even a “racist” by the major news media, every scientific survey shows that around half of American voters simply do not believe Barack Obama is telling the truth about his past – and specifically they remain unconvinced he is even legally qualified to occupy the presidency. Not to finally resolve this monumental and unprecedented constitutional issue would be intolerable, and would constitute the most extreme disrespect and contempt for the U.S. Constitution which every Congress member has sworn a solemn oath to defend.

Obama may be the first gay President, but he is also a murderer for having his ex-lovers (male) bumped off as a Senator.

Obama can not undo laws by Executive Order that passed through Congress like it's a magic eraser to #DOMA nor can he fund Obamacare properly

50+ Professors & Staff Resign From Christian University After Refusing to Sign Anti- Homosexuality Pledge!!!!!

Posted by Michael CHILDS, Admin II on May 16, 2012 at 2:30pm in Patriot Action Alerts

View Discussions

In October of last year, news came out that Shorter University, a Christian college in Rome, Georgia, had decided to make its employees sign a controversial pledge that says that they are not engaging in homosexuality, among other forbidden activities. Now, after nearly 50% of the employees refused to sign the Pledge. The college, which is affiliated with the Georgia Baptist Convention, has received a massive number of resignations
Dr. J. Robert White, executive director of the Georgia Baptist Convention, which Shorter is a part of, told The Christian Post that the “lifestyle statement” is consistent with the convention’s position.
“We have not taken a specific position related to the ‘lifestyle statement,’” said White, “but the history of our convention, which goes back to 1822, has approved many resolutions regarding homosexuality as a sin and alcohol use as ill-advised.”
Despite the outcry from some faculty and staff regarding the statement, White did not believe the measure would be overturned.
“I do not believe there will be any changes in the ‘lifestyle statement’ due to people who are opposed to it,” said White. “I think that at any educational institution the faculty and the administration are responsible for following the guidelines set by the board of trustees who provide this whole governance for the university.”
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/50-professors-staff-resign-from-chr...

http://www.christianpost.com/news/faculty-refuse-to-sign-lifestyle-...
:
Plainly stated: the opposition to the regulatory mechanism isn’t likely to lead Shorter University to reverse course. Aside from forbidding an active role in a gay relationship, the lifestyle pledge also bans pre-marital sex, adultery and drug use and abuse. Additionally, employees are asked to be active members of a church and to live their lives as committed, Bible-believing followers of Jesus Christ.
“Shorter University will hire persons who are committed Bible believing Christians, who are dedicated to integrating biblical faith in their classes and who are in agreement with the University Statement of Faith,” the document reads. “Moreover, employees are expected to be active members of a local church.”
Michael Wilson, a tenured librarian who has worked at the school for 14 years, had originally planned to stay until retirement. Now, in light of the statement’s enforcement, he has handed in his resignation. Wilson, who is gay, naturally refused to sign the document, calling his choice “a matter of conscience.”
Below, see footage from a protest against the statement last November:
Last October, university president Don Dowless defended the new policy, while saying that the higher educational facility can discriminate in its hiring practices and make specific requirements of employees.
“We have a right to hire only Christians,” he said. “I think that anybody who adheres to a lifestyle that is outside of what the biblical mandate is and of what the board has passed, including the president, would not be allowed to continue here.”

I will have to side with the College, it is their right to set forth standards that all employees must follow because of their religious beliefs.
read the scriptures below and you will find why they have set these standards. Because God wants it that way. And to live a Christian life is to follow the word of God, it's not that you have to live by the word it is that you choose to live by the Word of God
Proverbs 6:16-19
1 Corinthians 6:9-10

God Loves the Person but hates the Sin and God cannot look upon sin, therefore God does not see a sinner. It is only through the forgiveness of Jesus Christ that the Father God knows us.

I believe that we are headed to turmoil and the real persecution of the Christians in this country. We must do what the bible tells us as Christians to do. WHEN YOU HAVE DONE ALL YOU CAN DO THEN STAND STILL AND LET GOD MOVE!!!!!!

WHAT SAY YOU?

MR. OBAMA RIPS INTO MARRIAGE

Exclusive: James Dobson says the family 'will cease to exist' if 'gay' matrimony prevails
Published: 4 days agoby JAMES DOBSONEmail | Archive
James Dobson, Ph.D., is a well-known psychologist, broadcaster, best-selling author, and president and founder of James Dobson's Family Talk. Subscribe to author feed
President Barack Obama told reporter Robin Roberts last week that his thinking has “evolved” into support for same-sex marriage. His words conjure up imagery of a brooding, contemplative president, seeking the advice of friends and associates and finally coming to a new conclusion three years later. I don’t believe it for a minute. He stated as far back as 1996 that he was in favor of gay marriage and then flip-flopped on the issue when he ran for president. His new position sounds more like a political calculation in an election year.
The president’s evolution of gay marriage also lacks credibility because of his consistent support for the gay and lesbian agenda. He opposed “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” for military personnel and ordered his Justice Department not to fight for the Defense of Marriage Act in court. Then on Monday, Obama declared that he now wants DOMA repealed. The president hasn’t opposed LGBT activists on any substantive issue since taking office. Now that he is seeking re-election and has been smoked out by Vice President Biden, he apparently decided it was time to reveal what he has believed about same-sex marriage all along.
The president’s statement also lacks internal consistency. He said he favors each state’s right to determine the definition of marriage – yet isn’t that precisely what the people of North Carolina did last week? Was their vote of 61 to 39 percent in favor of traditional marriage a fluke, or was it the result of the citizens of North Carolina making their own choice?
And speaking of states’ rights to define marriage, wouldn’t that wreak havoc on individual families? Imagine the chaos of a couple being married in Texas but not married in Arkansas, or being married in Arizona and not married in Massachusetts. Children in one state would be legitimate, but would be the product of unmarried parents in the next. And what about the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts? Could they continue to override the will of the people, as did the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in California? And what about inheritance issues from state to state? You would think the president of the United States would have thought through his position and its implications before impulsively making it known to the nation. If traditional marriage is not the law of the land, the institution of the family will cease to exist.
Finally, this story has been mishandled by the biased news media, as usual. Even Fox News, notably Shepard Smith, told its viewers for weeks that the nation was shifting dramatically in the direction of same-sex marriage. That is palpably untrue. North Carolina and 31 other states have now voted on the definition of marriage, and every one of them has affirmed it as being exclusively between one man and one woman. There have been no exceptions. Mr. Smith never acknowledged that fact and said instead that the president was at last on the “right side of history.” Really, Mr. Smith? Traditional marriage has been the cultural norm on every continent on earth for 8,000 years, even in Greece and Rome.
Mr. President, I hope you live to regret ripping into the institution of marriage, which has been foundational to the social order of all nations. It must continue to be protected in law and practice if the family is to survive in this shock-wave world.
INSTEAD OF THE ISSUE OF THE DAY....

STUBBORN UNEMPLOYMENT AND STAGNANT GROWTH
REVISITING UNEMPLOYMENT PREDICTIONS
e21 Team | June 7, 2011
Back in January 2009, Christina Romer and Jared Bernstein produced a report estimating future unemployment rates with and without a stimulus plan. Their estimates, which were widely circulated, projected that unemployment would approach 9% without a stimulus, but would never exceed 8% with the plan. The estimates, along with real unemployment rates, are posted below:
In May 2011, using the latest figures available from the BLS, the unemployment rate reached 9.1%. In contrast, the Romer and Bernstein projections estimated that the unemployment rate would be around 8.1% for this month without a recovery plan, or 6.8% with a stimulus plan (which was ultimately passed). The actual unemployment rate has been consistently above Romer and Bernstein’s worse case scenario for the economy – and by a considerable margin. They projected that the unemployment rate would never climb above 9%. As time has passed, it turns out that only two months out of the last two years have seen an unemployment rate lower than 9%.
And the unemployment trajectory appears to be getting worse, not better. The last two months have seen unemployment grow; again, against projections that unemployment would decline every single month after August 2009 with a stimulus in place.
The stark unreality of the Administration’s estimates is actually not that surprising in retrospect given the nature of the estimates. Romer and Bernstein simply assumed that a dollar of spending would increase GDP by $1.55. If this assumption proved to be wrong, then all of the knock-on effects of the stimulus would simply not follow.
Romer and Bernstein defend their estimates with the argument that the economic situation turned out worse than they had anticipated; and so the economy would have done even worse without a stimulus. That may or may not be the case – but at this point, a more thorough explanation is certainly warranted.
The recession “officially” ended two years ago, yet the first quarter of 2011 only saw 1.8% growth. The Administration and Congress should have a more robust discussion about their self-proclaimed “2010 Recovery Summer” – if for no other reason than to better inform the public about the recovery challenges the U.S. still faces in 2011.
For example, there is new research that suggests that the stimulus may actually have resulted in a net loss of jobs. Regardless of the exact number of jobs lost or created, however, the fact that some economists are even arguing that it had a negative impact tells you that the stimulus may very well have been a wash overall.
Larry Lindsey offered his own review of the stimulus this week, arguing that it failed what’s colloquially known as the Sharp Pencil Test. As he explains, “if you sit down and do a back of the envelope calculation of the [stimulus] program’s costs and benefits, there is no way to conjure up numbers that allow it to make sense.” Here is more on how Lindsey applies this test to the stimulus:
[E]ven if you buy the White House’s argument that the $800 billion package created 3 million jobs, that works out to $266,000 per job. Taxing or borrowing $266,000 from the private sector to create a single job is simply not a cost effective way of putting America back to work. The long-term debt burden of that $266,000 swamps any benefit that the single job created might provide.
At minimum, the public now deserves a response from policymakers about what they have learned from 2009 and 2010 – about what actually does and does not help get the economy growing and producing more jobs.

2 Kings 3:16,17
And he said, Thus saith the Lord, Make this valley full of ditches. For thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain; yet that valley shall be filled with water, that ye may drink, both ye and your cattle, and your beasts.

The armies of the three kings were famishing for want of water: God was about to send it, and in these words the prophet announced the coming blessing. Here was a case of human helplessness: not a drop of water could all the valiant men procure from the skies or find in the wells of earth. Thus often the people of the Lord are at their wits' end; they see the vanity of the creature, and learn experimentally where their help is to be found. Still the people were to make a believing preparation for the divine blessing; they were to dig the trenches in which the precious liquid would be held. The church must by her varied agencies, efforts, and prayers, make herself ready to be blessed; she must make the pools, and the Lord will fill them. This must be done in faith, in the full assurance that the blessing is about to descend. By-and-by there was a singular bestowal of the needed boon. Not as in Elijah's case did the shower pour from the clouds, but in a silent and mysterious manner the pools were filled. The Lord has His own sovereign modes of action: He is not tied to manner and time as we are, but doeth as He pleases among the sons of men. It is ours thankfully to receive from Him, and not to dictate to Him. We must also notice the remarkable abundance of the supply-there was enough for the need of all. And so it is in the gospel blessing; all the wants of the congregation and of the entire church shall be met by the divine power in answer to prayer; and above all this, victory shall be speedily given to the armies of the Lord. What am I doing for Jesus? What trenches am I digging? O Lord, make me ready to receive the blessing which Thou art so willing to bestow.

WE ARE GOING TO MAKE THE PREPARATIONS....
We ARE working with Mitt Romney, Governor Perry, and Senator Santorum to create 1 million jobs in 30 of the worst disaffected states, and challenge Romney to make a promise to create 10 million jobs, as Obama lost over 30 million jobs, and Obama had not nor does he have the influence in the private sector to create 10 million jobs

H. CON. RES. 107
Expressing the sense of Congress that the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
March 7, 2012
Mr. JONES submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Expressing the sense of Congress that the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.
Whereas the cornerstone of the Republic is honoring Congress's exclusive power to declare war under article I, section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of Congress that, except in response to an actual or imminent attack against the territory of the United States, the use of offensive military force by a President without prior and clear authorization of an Act of Congress violates Congress's exclusive power to declare war under article I, section 8, clause 11 of the Constitution and therefore constitutes an impeachable high crime and misdemeanor under article II, section 4 of the Constitution.

Pending the resolution of Congress on the above matters, Congress is drafting contempt of Congress to hold Eric Holder accountable, given the Obama Administration’s complicit involvement in the scandal; wherein, guns were secretly given to cartels for payment of bulk drugs, to silence cartel demands against corrupt law enforcement officials/in order to extract intelligence information of the identity of cartel members which soon became a series of botched gun running operations, which then posed danger to further eroding border security and national security matters. With Obama and Eric Holder following these policies: usage of unethical confidential informants and not following the letter and spirit of the law when it came to straw purchases, the people of the United States have been embarrassed by a President who had this happen on his watch with the death of 2 agents and 300 Mexicans. Obama’s Administration has been riddled with voter fraud and endless scandals, even despite the fact he does not have the pedigree, legal and authentic paperwork, or authority to enforce laws that he created or collect taxes!

A far cry from the campaign promise of transparency, the Obama Administration has proven to be lawless and without regard to the will of the people Obama serves. The will of the people regarding H.R. 4872, the UnAffordable Care Act, and all related Obamacare legislation is that it is unconstitutional because of the individual mandate and taxes imposed without providing a single ounce of health insurance. Besides the physical body, our Creator has given us free will, and the right to pursue happiness. These rights are not given to us by government, but government was created to preserve those rights, not trample upon them and squish them like grapes!

Perhaps the greatest folly following Obama’s lack of citizenship and defrauding Social Security with a Connecticut Social Security number, has been the composition of that package of legislation, willful political opposition to the actual will of the people, and dictatorial manner in which the Obamacare set of laws have been illegally imposed upon our citizens; in its origin and composition, to its practice of threatening punishment by fines and incarceration for failing to buy a product of insurance without providing the reform or coverage promised, while yet creating taxation and funding mechanisms for abortion services, prison expansion, and scratching the back of Big Pharma with pill contracts to mass medicate society.
What the people wanted, they did not get with this legislation!

The people find that Obama is in civil contempt of court:
Existence of a lawful order (abridging and discounting the Constitution and disrespecting the authority and knowledge of the Supreme Court regarding the Constitution)
The potential contemnor's knowledge of the order (Obama has a degree in Constitutional law but does not follow it, and this legislation was found to be an impeachable offense)
The potential contemnor's ability to comply (Obama and a small strain of Democrats have continued to publicly deny the will of the people despite successive efforts by the House of Representatives to repeal the legislation)
The potential contemnor's failure to comply (several repeal bills since 2010 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jK6-kGCB_Dbb5K98YSS9o9kSNBwLJsSb7XQ5GQSvTks/edit?authkey=CIS_je8I and proposed policies http://www.ricksantorum.com/news/2012/03/healthcare-freedom-agenda-rick-santorums-prescription-america http://www.ricksantorum.com/health-care-freedom-agenda have been deemed to provide health reform and properly fund insurance programs without punitive means of taxation through fines and imprisonment, to increase access to HSA’s and require insurance companies to address waste, fraud, and abuse while covering students/pre-existing conditions, by requisite of making their product available to markets that they had denied; however, without full repeal of the individual mandate which has caused prolonged unemployment by forcing businesses to be compliant rather than hire employees whose insurance they can’t cover (rather than focusing on the insurance companies or enforcing market standards for cost of procedures and medical supplies), premiums are not lower and now 50.7 million have no insurance))
Civil contempt
In civil proceedings there are two main ways in which contempt is committed:
Failure to attend at court despite a subpoena requiring attendance. In respect of the High Court, historically a writ of latitat would have been issued, but now a bench warrant is issued, authorizing the tipstaff to arrange for the arrest of the individual, and imprisonment until the date and time the court appoints to next sit. In practice a groveling letter of apology to the court is sufficient to ward off this possibility, and in any event the warrant is generally 'backed for bail' i.e. bail will be granted once the arrest has been made and a location where the person can be found in future established.[citation needed]
Failure to comply with a court order. A copy of the order, with a "penal notice"—i.e. notice informing the recipient that if they do not comply they are subject to imprisonment—is served on the person concerned. If, after that, they breach the order, proceedings can be started and in theory the person involved can be sent to prison. In practice this rarely happens as the cost on the claimant of bringing these proceedings is significant and in practice imprisonment is rarely ordered as an apology or fine are usually considered appropriate.
[edit]United States
Under American jurisprudence, acts of contempt are divided into two types.
Direct contempt is that which occurs in the presence of the presiding judge (in facie curiae) and may be dealt with summarily: the judge notifies the offending party that he or she has acted in a manner which disrupts the tribunal and prejudices the administration of justice. After giving the person the opportunity to respond, the judge may impose the sanction immediately.
Indirect contempt occurs outside the immediate presence of the court and consists of disobedience of a court's prior order. Generally a party will be accused of indirect contempt by the party for whose benefit the order was entered. A person cited for indirect contempt is entitled to notice of the charge and an opportunity for hearing of the evidence of contempt and, since there is no written procedure, may or may not be allowed to present evidence in rebuttal.
Contempt of court in a civil suit is generally not considered to be a criminal offense, with the party benefiting from the order also holding responsibility for the enforcement of the order. However, some cases of civil contempt have been perceived as intending to harm the reputation of the plaintiff, or to a lesser degree, the judge or the court.
Sanctions for contempt may be criminal or civil. If a person is to be punished criminally, then the contempt must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, but once the charge is proven, then punishment (such as a fine or, in more serious cases, imprisonment) is imposed unconditionally. The civil sanction for contempt (which is typically incarceration in the custody of the sheriff or similar court officer) is limited in its imposition for so long as the disobedience to the court's order continues: once the party complies with the court's order, the sanction is lifted. The imposed party is said to "hold the keys" to his or her own cell, thus conventional due process is not required. The burden of proof for civil contempt, however, is a preponderance of the evidence, and theoretically punitive sanctions (punishment) can only be imposed after due process but the due process is unpublished.
In civil contempt cases there is no principle of proportionality. In Chadwick v. Janecka (3d Cir. 2002), a U.S. court of appeals held that H. Beatty Chadwick could be held indefinitely under federal law, for his failure to produce US$ 2.5 mill. as state court ordered in a civil trial. Chadwick had been imprisoned for nine years at that time and continued to be held in prison until 2009, when a state court set him free after 14 years, making his imprisonment the longest on a contempt charge to date.
The United States Marshals Service is the agency component that first holds all federal prisoners. It uses the Prisoner Population Management System /Prisoner Tracking System. The only types of records that are disclosed as being in the system are those of "federal prisoners who are in custody pending criminal proceedings." The records of "alleged civil contempors" are not listed in the Federal Register as being in the system leading to a potential claim for damages under The Privacy Act, 5 USC section 552a (e)(4)(I).[10][11]

Obama has not attended state ballot disputes and court hearings regarding his citizenship: essentially claiming he is too powerful, above the law and immune to being prosecuted, and that he is even above upholding his Oath of Office. Obama is in civil contempt for not honoring subpoenaed court appearances and orders of smaller courts that he provide authentic and not photoshopped imagery of his birth of origin. Obama is also in indirect contempt of the Supreme Court for not upholding the Constitution as it is written and properly interpreted, and not giving them the due honor and respect that they deserve.

While the Tea Party and the Republican Party have worked together to propose equitable remedy in the form of repeal legislation as listed above and defund and strike most of the existing legislation, the people of the United States are filing this injunction to inform Obama that he must refrain from discussion and entertainment of these unconstitutional laws as previously detailed, including enforcement in any capacity, and that he must refrain from threatening to veto all legislation if he doesn’t get his way, or we will veto him.

If the Democrats continue the unconstitutional parade, we shall seek an injunction against John Kerry, and censure as it is appropriate. Failing to adhere to the Impeachment Order from January 1st, 2012 will incur criminal charges for perjury, felonies for each campaign donation as applicable for Obama’s 2008 campaign, and a forfeiture of his current campaign funds to the I.R.S. for corruption and fraud.

In order to restore status quo ante, so-to-speak, Obama must no longer abuse his position and Office to micromanage the citizens of the United States when it comes to their private lives, health decisions, and employment matters.

Obama must cease and desist in enforcing Obamacare legislation and the individual mandate so that businesses may hire employees at will, not at the government’s discretion or compliance to this heinous monstrosity that did not accomplish health reform or coverage for the uninsured, which are state matters, may I remind Obama.

We write this in faith that Congress is working on our behalf to restore the full rights afforded to citizens by the Constitution, that we are satisfied with their inquiries and investigation on corruption involving Eric Holder and the Justice Department, in this long-awaited process of full impeachment which may result in Obama’s removal from Office before the November 2012 election or by concession of election to a more deserving leader.

We document this injunction filed with Congress to state that each small business or business owner is not required to comply with ANY onerous and tyrannical laws enacted from 2008-2012, as Obama possesses no legal authority over the citizens of the United States to do as he commands against our will with the particular and specific legislation regarding health care regulations.

Each business may sign and date their own copy below, to give them legal authority to hire again without fear of penalty and punishment of the law, establishing this as a legal document of understanding of the facts spelled out here in this injunction, as such this may be referenced or effective on today’s date from here on out that we are not required to respect any of the remaining existing law or individual mandate. A copy may be put into each employee’s file or one copy of this on file with each business to be compliant with I.R.S. and court records. May this stand to unshackle the private sector market in order to hire employees, as they did so prior.

GOP House Leaders Demand Fast and Furious Answers from Holder
Friday, 18 May 2012 03:26 PM
By Dan Weil

House Republican leaders have joined the effort to push Attorney General Eric Holder to provide more information about the Fast and Furious gun walking operation.

House Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, and Whip Kevin McCarthy joined Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa in sending a letter to Holder Friday, demanding more information about the government program to sell weapons to Mexican criminals.

The move is important, because so far it’s just been Issa spearheading the investigation. He and some other Republicans want to hold Holder in contempt of Congress for not cooperating with the committee’s investigation.

Later Boehner said "all options are on the table" in the investigation during the taping of an interview for ABC's "This Week," which will air on Sunday.

Congress wants "to hold everyone at the Department of Justice and the administration accountable for what happened or what didn't happen in Fast and Furious," he said.

Until now, the House leaders have been more cautious. But now they’re clearly taking a stronger stand. The letter actually decreases the amount of documents Issa requests. But it also asks the Department of Justice to reveal who planned Fast and Furious.

The program allowed Mexican criminals to buy U.S. weapons, with the idea that the arms could then be traced to Mexican drug kingpins. But it didn’t work, and some of the weapons were found at the murder site of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

“Two key questions remain unanswered: first, who on your leadership team was informed of the reckless tactics used in Fast and Furious prior to Agent Terry’s murder; and, second, did your leadership team mislead or misinform Congress in response to a Congressional subpoena?” the letter reads.

"One fact appears to be undisputed by all concerned: Fast and Furious was a fundamentally flawed operation," the letter continues. "It was taken to an extreme that resulted in at least one death of a U.S. Border Patrol agent and unknown other consequences, because U.S, law enforcement agencies allowed thousands of firearms to be illegally 'walked' into Mexico and into the hands of drug cartels.

"Beyond the horrific impact on the Terry family, there is no doubt that this operation has done serious harm to one of the United States' most important bilateral relationships. It is our hope that, in finding the truth, we can both provide closure to the Terry family, begin to repair our relationship with Mexico, and take steps to make necessary changes at the Department."

It also asks for all communication after Feb. 4, 2011, when Issa received a letter from the Justice Department, saying it wasn’t involved in gun walking. That turned out to be false.

The letter does not threaten Holder with contempt, but shows that the House leadership stands behind Issa’s investigation.

Why Eric Holder Would Rather Go To Jail Than Surrender Fast and Furious Documents to Congressional Investigators
Posted on May 15, 2012 by dancingczars | 5 Comments
The Truth About Guns
by Robert Farago
By Jim Campbell, Citizen Journalist
DEALING WITH ERIC HOLDER:
There is a simple solution to this matter of continued obstruction of justice. If Issa would get in gear, quit playing with this dirt bag, figure out away to have him arrested. Forget about jail, turn him over to the Mexican Police, or the Zetas.
I’d have no problem the next time I see this racist slug being just his head on a pole or hanging from a bridge. This is daily happenings in Mexico. Is Holder to special?
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it, I’m J.C. and I approve this message.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder continues to stonewall Congressional investigators over Operation Fast and Furious. Congress wants to know the origin, scope, scale, nature and timing of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ illegal gun running program.
A program that facilitated the illegal sale of over 2000 U.S. gun store guns to members of Mexican drug cartels; some of whom used the weapons to murder U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, Immigrations and Custom Enforcement Agent Jaime Zapata and an unknown number of Mexican citizens. Ignoring an impending contempt of Congress citation, the U.S. Attorney General has refused to provide tens of thousands of key documents to Congress. Why? Let’s start with the official explanation . . .
The Department of Justice (DOJ) continues to claim they can’t release the subpoenaed documents because they might jeopardize “ongoing criminal investigations and prosecutions.” Yes well . . .
The Fast and Furious program ran for ten months in 2010. U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was murdered in Christmas of that year. Since then, most of the low-level scum who conducted the actual Fast and Furious firearms transactions (and attendent smuggling) have been tried, convicted and sent to jail, albeit with suspiciously light sentences.
As for the gun running “kingpins” whose activities supposedly inspired the ATF’s illegal “sting,” they never existed. The most senior U.S.-to-Mexico gun runner was an FBI informant. So it will be a very long wait indeed for any high profile criminal prosecutions related to Fast and Furious. Especially if we’re talking about the people who created the ATF’s extra-legal operation.
During that same one-and-a-half year gap between Agent Terry’s death and now, none of the government employees involved in Fast and Furious have been so much as officially reprimanded. At the beginning of the scandal, the DOJ refused to answer questions about their [lack of any] internal response to F&F by saying they were waiting for the final report from an Inspector General’s Office investigation. The DOJ hasn’t mentioned this “independent” IG investigation in well over a year.
Which brings us to the current impasse.
The mainstream media reckons Eric Holder’s stonewalling Congress because he’s covering-up pre-Terry knowledge of Fast and Furious at the administration’s highest levels. The subpoenaed documents would establish a connection between Obama’s Boyz (perhaps even the President himself), the ATF and Agent Terry and Zapata’s death (oh and the Mexicans).
The question is: so what?
That’s not enough “dirt” to justify Holder’s decision to hold out on Congress. Even if Holder and his boss knew about F&F, it’s not like they ordered the ATF to sell guns to Mexican drug thugs so they could murder U.S. government agents. The DOJ has claimed all along that Operation Fast and Furious was a “botched sting.” That “Our heart was in the right place. Shit happens” strategy is working just fine.
So perhaps the documents reveal F&F as gun-grabbing groundwork: part of a coordinated effort to create a sense of emergency to justify the introduction of new, draconian gun control laws for American citizens.
Again, so what?
The Obama administration could easily spin everything Fast and Furious related as an anti-crime effort that went south (literally and figuratively). The President could claim national security, point to [illusory] progress on The War on Drugs and call it a day. The media would move on (dot org).
There must be something bigger than “oops they killed someone with ATF-enabled guns” and “we were planning another assault weapons ban” under wraps. Something so damaging that Eric Holder would rather go to jail rather than comply with the law of the land. Something that could bring the Obama administration down.
The answer’s right there in front of us. Has been for some time. The Obama administration was (is?) in business with the heinous Mexican drug cartels. As in allowing tons of drugs and millions of illegal immigrants into the United States, and letting tens of billions of dollars and thousands of guns (don’t forget official military and police sales) out.
I’m not going to revisit all the posts that establish this government-wide pattern of corruption, from the “forgotten” gun running scandal (Tampa ATF’s Operation Castaway) to the IED builder allowed to walk back into Mexico (Mr. Kingley). But I want to draw your attention to one story that proves my point. As in Watergate, with Fast and Furious, you gotta follow the money.
Undercover American narcotics agents have laundered or smuggled millions of dollars in drug proceeds as part of Washington’s expanding role in Mexico’s fight against drug cartels, according to current and former federal law enforcement officials.
. . . the former officials said that federal law enforcement agencies had to seek Justice Department approval to launder amounts greater than $10 million in any single operation. But they said that the cap was treated more as a guideline than a rule, and that it had been waived on many occasions to attract the interest of high-value targets.
According to this December 2011 story in the New York Times (which we blogged at the time), the DEA laundered drug cartel cash as part of their own “botched sting.” What are the odds of two different federal agencies working on behalf of Mexican cartels that delivered the goods but somehow never managed to close the [supposed] trap?
I am convinced that U.S. collusion with Mexican drug cartels accounts for Eric Holder’s steadfast refusal to surrender a truckload subpoenaed documents to Congress, at the risk, of a jail sentence (no joke). But I’m still unclear as to why the Obama administration jumped into bed with the drug thugs. To protect the Calderon administration? Greed? Dunno.
The answer lies in those documents. Meanwhile, funding and arming the drug cartels while allowing the Mexican government to disarm their citizens has created unimaginable suffering on both sides of the border. In the memory of Agent Terry, who believed in the U.S. constitution and the rule of law, someone should be held accountable. Eric Holder’s as good a place to start as any.

THE SHOCKING TRUTH THAT THE STIMULUS DID NOT WORK, OTHER THAN TO STABILIZE STOCKS AND LINE THE PURSES OF BANKERS:

#51st rank WORST STATE - NEVADA - Senator Harry Reid’s area of responsibility
STATE MOTTO SHOULD BE “SIN AS A BUSINESS” OR “WE TRADE IN SINFUL COMMODITIES”

Nevada’s unemployment drops from 13.6% from 2011 to 12% in March, and 11.7% in April, but this is due to even more people leaving the workforce, so while the figures are positive this is offset by that many people exiting the workforce. National unemployment is 8.1%, meaning the stimulus did not even get or keep unemployment levels at 7% or lower and most have run out of their ability to re-apply for 2nd or 3rd tier federal unemployment extensions...

Nevada (i /nəˈvædə / or /nəˈvɒdə /) is a state in the western, mountain west, and southwestern regions of the United States. Nevada is the 7th most extensive, the 35th most populous, and the 9th least densely populated of the 50 United States. Over two-thirds of Nevada's people live in the Las Vegas metropolitan area,[6] which contains its three largest incorporated cities.[7] Nevada's capital is Carson City.
Nevada is largely desert and semiarid, with much of it located within the Great Basin. Areas south of the Great Basin are located within the Mojave Desert, while Lake Tahoe and the Sierra Nevada mountains lie on the western edge. Approximately 86% of the state's land is owned by the US government under various jurisdictions, both civilian and military.[8]

STATE GOVERNMENT REVENUE/BUDGET -   EDUCATION ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK TO BALANCE THE BUDGET

Brian Sandoval, Nevada’s newly inaugurated Republican governor, has proposed a budget of $5.8 billion for the next two years, which would reduce the budget to the 2007-2008 level, while the Democrats have countered with a proposal of close to $7 billion, but which is not entirely funded. Under either proposal, major cuts would take place.

DEFICIT - Nevada currently leads the US in unemployment, bankruptcies and foreclosures, and now has a budget deficit that stands at 54 percent of the total state budget, the highest percentage in the nation.

CRIME RATE - OLD MINING COMMUNITY, GAMBLING, AND PROSTITUTION
Financial institutions
Similarly, many U.S. states have usury laws limiting the amount of interest a lender can charge, but federal law allows corporations to 'import' these laws from their home state.
[edit]Drugs and alcohol
Non-alcohol drug laws are a notable exception to Nevada's otherwise libertarian principles. It is notable for having the harshest penalties for drug offenders in the country. Nevada remains the only state to still use mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines for marijuana possession. However, it is now a misdemeanor for possession of less than one ounce but only for persons age 21 and older. In 2006, voters in Nevada defeated attempts to allow possession of 1 ounce of marijuana (for personal use) without being criminally prosecuted, (55% against legalization, 45% in favor of legalization). However, Nevada is one of the states that allows for use of marijuana for medical reasons (though this remains illegal under federal law).
Nevada has very liberal alcohol laws. Bars are permitted to remain open 24 hours, with no "last call". Liquor stores, convenience storesand supermarkets may also sell alcohol 24 hours per day, and may sell beer, wine and spirits.
[edit]Smoking
Nevada voters enacted a smoking ban ("the Nevada Clean Indoor Air Act") in November 2006 that became effective on December 8, 2006. It outlaws smoking in most workplaces and public places. Smoking is permitted in bars, but only if the bar serves no food, or the bar is inside a larger casino. Smoking is also permitted in casinos, hotel rooms, tobacco shops, and brothels.[56] However, some businesses do not obey this law and the government tends not to enforce it.[57] Yet, in one case, they did prosecute an establishment called "Bilbo's." As of 2008, the trial was still pending.[58]
[edit]Crime
Nevada has been ranked as the most dangerous state in the U.S. for five years in a row, just ahead of Louisiana [59][60] In 2006, the crime rate in Nevada was approximately 24% higher than the national average rate. Property crimes accounted for approximately 84.6% of the crime rate in Nevada which was 21% higher than the national rate. The remaining 20.3% were violent crimes and were approximately 45% higher than other states.[61] In 2008, Nevada had the third highest murder rate, and the highest rate of robbery and motor vehicle theft.[59]

The economy of Nevada has long been tied to vice industries. "[Nevada was] founded on mining and refounded on sin—-beginning with prizefighting and easy divorce a century ago and later extending to gaming and prostitution", said the August 21, 2010 issue of The Economist.[36]
The Bureau of Economic Analysis[37][38] estimates that Nevada's total state product in 2010 was $126 billion. Resort areas such as Las Vegas, Reno, Lake Tahoe, and Laughlin attract visitors from around the nation and world. In FY08 the total of 266 casinos with gaming revenue over $1m for the year, brought in revenue of $12 billion in gaming revenue, and $13 billion in non-gaming revenue. A review of gaming statistics can be found at Nevada gaming area.
The state's Per capita personal income in 2009 was $38,578, ranking nineteenth in the nation.[39]
As of August 2011, the state's unemployment rate is the worst in the nation at 13.4%.[40]
Its agricultural outputs are cattle, hay, alfalfa, dairy products, onions, and potatoes. Its industrial outputs are tourism, mining, machinery, printing and publishing, food processing, and electric equipment.
In portions of the state outside of the Las Vegas and Reno metropolitan areas, mining and cattle ranching are the major economic activities. By value, gold is by far the most important mineral mined. In 2004, 6,800,000 ounces (190,000,000 g) of gold worth $2.84 billion were mined in Nevada, and the state accounted for 8.7% of world gold production (see Gold mining in Nevada). Silver is a distant second, with 10,300,000 ounces (290,000,000 g) worth $69 million mined in 2004 (see Silver mining in Nevada).[41] Other minerals mined in Nevada include construction aggregates, copper, gypsum, diatomite and lithium. Despite its rich deposits, the cost of mining in Nevada is generally high, and output is very sensitive to world commodity prices.
As of January 1, 2006, there were an estimated 500,000 head of cattle and 70,000 head of sheep in Nevada.[42] Most of these animals forage on rangeland in the summer, with supplemental feed in the winter. Calves are generally shipped to out-of-state feedlots in the fall to be fattened for market. Over 90% of Nevada's 484,000 acres (196,000 ha) of cropland is used to grow hay, mostly alfalfa, for livestock feed.
Further information: Nevada locations by per capita income
The state sales tax in Nevada is variable depending upon the county. The minimum statewide tax rate is 6.85%, with five counties (Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Humboldt, and Mineral) charging this minimum amount. All other counties assess various option taxes, making the combined state/county sales taxes rate in one county as high as 8.1%, which is the amount charged in Clark County. Sales tax in the other major counties: Carson at 7.475%, Washoe at 7.725%. The minimum Nevada sales tax rate changed on July 1, 2009.[43]
Nevada has by far the most hotel rooms per capita in the United States. According to the American Hotel and Lodging Association, there were 187,301 rooms in 584 hotels (of 15 or more rooms). The state is ranked just below California, Texas, Florida, and New York in total number of rooms, but those states have much larger populations. Nevada has one hotel room for every 14 residents, far above the national average of one hotel room per 67 residents.[44]
Prostitution is legal in parts of Nevada in licensed brothels, but only counties with populations under 400,000 residents have the option to legalize it. Although prostitution employs roughly 300 women as independent contractors, and not a major part of the Nevada economy, it is a very visible endeavor. Of the 14 counties that are permitted to legalize prostitution under state law, about 8 have chosen to legalize brothels. State law prohibits prostitution in Clark County (which contains Las Vegas), and Washoe County (which contains Reno). However, prostitution is legal in Storey County, which is part of the Reno–Sparks metropolitan area.

The Obama Administration is once again poised to begin harassing Gibson Guitars of Nashville, Tennessee, this time taking its grievances with the company to musicians and fans at summer concerts across the nation.

Administration officials have threatened to raid summer concerts in order to seize what it deems to be illegal guitars made from wood that has been banned.

The issue has been in the news before when federal investigators raided Gibson factories in Nashville and Memphis on Aug. 25, 2011:

Guitars were seized as evidence. Pallets of wood were confiscated. Computers containing electronic files were taken, all under the assumption that something in those files would indicate that Gibson had used 'protected wood from overseas' in the making of its guitars.

Gibson denied the allegations, stating that the wood used to make its guitars comes from a Forest Stewardship Council certified supplier.

The latest skirmish, however, takes the government's case against Gibson to a new level. The feds intend to take the battle directly to the musicians who use Gibson guitars, which are considered the best in the business, and to the fans who come to hear them play.

If the feds raid summer concerts, major disruptions will ensue which will impact the fans who paid hefty ticket fees to see their favorite musicians such as Sheryl Crow, Ted Nugent, and Paul McCartney, all of whom use Gibson guitars.

The threat was enough to send U.S. Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., quickly leaping into action to make sure the government is prevented from seizing guitars made with forbidden wood provided they were manufactured prior to 2008. A law passed 112 years ago in order to regulate bird feathers used in hats was amended in 2008 to protect wood in "protected forests."

Alexander does not wish to repeal the amendment but to insure that it is understood that guitars and other musical instruments made before the amendment passed in 2008 cannot be considered unlawful, given that they were manufactured when using such wood was fully legal.

A meeting was held today between Alexander, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., representatives from the music industry and the wood import business, and conservation and environmental groups to come up with a workable solution.

(NaturalNews) In a bombshell revelation of the depth of the food police state that now exists in LA County, California, NaturalNews has learned that the LA County health department has unleashed door-to-door raw milk confiscation teams to threaten and intimidate raw dairy customers into surrendering raw milk products they legally purchased and own.

According to Mark McAfee (see quotes below), both LA County and San Diego county have attempted to acquire customer names and addresses from Organic Pastures (www.OrganicPastures.com) for the sole purpose of sending "food confiscation teams" to customers' homes to remove the raw milk from customers' refrigerators. Using both phone calls and home visits, these teams intimidate customers and try to force them to give up their milk.

These revelations have surfaced in a recorded NaturalNews interview with Mark McAfee, the founder of Organic Pastures and a food rights advocate. Here's what he told us:

LA County health enforcers go door to door, demanding your fresh milk

"I received a phone call yesterday morning from a wonderful young gal, a 36-year-old mom out of LA County. She's one of our UPS customers that we deliver overnight raw milk to her house. When the CDFA was in here the other day on our recall, they demanded to have all our delivery addresses for overnight UPS delivery. We screwed up and [inadvertently] gave it to them, they got it from one of our secretaries here. The LA County health department started calling her, six or seven times, demanding that she give up her raw milk from her own home to the health department.

She refused, then they showed up at her house and demanded that she give her raw milk to them. She was getting ready to call 911 for the Sheriff's department and have them removed from her front doorstep, and she was threatening to use her camera to take a picture of them and post it on Facebook for harassing her over her raw milk... The investigators left after she told them she was not going to give them the raw milk and to get the Hell off her property.

This is what's going on, it's like food Nazis, it's incredible what these people are doing, trying to collect food from people's houses, that have not made them ill!

Then the San Diego health department called me up and said oh we want a list of all your buyer's club members, and I said no... and they said we want all their addresses and their names, because we want to go to their homes. I said it ain't happening, we aren't going to give it to you."

Are armed raids on raw milk customers next?

LA County has already conducted armed raids on raw milk distribution centers -- are armed raids on raw milk customers next? Will LA County Health Department investigators start calling on the police to go door to door, arresting raw milk owners as if they were crack dealers?

Remember: The raw milk from Organic Pastures is legally sold, legally purchased, and greatly enjoyed by its customers. There are virtually no complaints about this product. Customers love it. Only the government wants to confiscate it and destroy it.

And even as the county is unleashing food police to confiscate raw milk that authorities say might be dangerous, they cannot find anyone actually harmed by it. Nor do they pay any attention to the fact that upwards of 70 percent of the fresh chicken meat sold at grocery stores across California is routinely contaminated with salmonella and other pathogens.

What this clearly demonstrates is yet another ratcheting up of the California police state, where county authorities reach right into your refrigerator and confiscate food that they claim might not be safe -- food that you've legally purchased and wish to consume knowing full well that it's fresh and raw!

Regulators operating as lawless, idiotic tyrants

The question on all our minds is simple: Where does this end? Having already criminalized raw milk distribution at Rawesome Foods, thrown James Stewart in jail (http://www.naturalnews.com/035208_James_Stewart_torture_county_jail.h...) and completely shuttered the Rawesome operation, California's bureaucrats seem to have too much time and money on their hands, so they target real food and local farms while ignoring the truly dangerous criminals running loose across the streets of L.A.

Such is the inevitable result of big government gone bad, which is almost an oxymoron because big government always goes bad. Eventually, the power granted to authorities at any level (county, state, federal) is turned against the People, and food, farms and freedoms are among the first targets to be threatened.

Read NaturalNews for more breaking news on this food police confiscation story. In the mean time, I also recommend reading www.TheCompletePatient.com for timely coverage of this topic, as well as "Raw Milk Freedom Riders" (http://rawmilkfreedomriders.wordpress.com).

To Governor Nathan Deal, Governor Perry, and Senator Mitch McConnell:

While I know that we have not had substantive tax reform, I include on my Facebook business page a disclosure statement because I lobby unregistered with the Tea Party, as Chief of the Southern Crescent area. In writing a political newsletter for 3 years, we can not underscore the role of small businesses in their ability to lift people out of poverty and creating employment, even though these businesses are not profitable at this time because sales are down, they may be serviceable to others until the economy improves (unlike monster corporations subject to taxes higher than 25%).

Rather than continue arguments, I have decided to pay-it-forward: meaning, while I do not make over $20,000 a year nor am I required to pay a 7% individual or income tax if my products are not selling, I have determined that charities and churches are often meeting their own quotas and agendas, rather than the needs that they were designed to serve. Therefore, I believe a 7% statement of wealth is necessary to help the federal government lower its operational costs without overtaxing or confiscating individual wealth to do so, by increasing business contracts and lowering the doling out of federal dollars to fix local community issues.

Therefore, my annual 2012 statement of worth is $13,321 that can be found here http://www.facebook.com/TeaPartyConsortium/info and this means I am giving the federal government over $900 access to my products to allieviate disaster relief funding in certain states, in order to restore individuals disaffected by the destruction we’ve seen in recent years that makes the needs so great. These disasters wipe out food and clothing storehouses, used regularly to help the poor that are becoming depleted to not be able to meet the growing needs. I want to contribute this amount to lower the cost of federal dollars, like the federal dollars that were used for Hurricane Katrina victims who were given FEMA cash cards to spend at retail stores, as an apology for lack of disaster preparedness. Instead of donated items, I want for those most disaffected to be able to pick out something new and unique, so that they understand that the federal government is not just dispensing federal dollars or stimulating retail sales off of disaster, but that those who are small business owners care about their community and our current budget crisis, and that we are doing something to lower that cost all the way around!
Enclosed are $320 certificates to Governor Perry, $320 certificates to Mitch McConnell, and $270 for Governor Deal, which totals $910 for disaster relief programs and cost of shipping items redeemed to your respective offices will meet/exceed the 7% annual statement of worth, of $932.37. Have recipients type #REDEEM on items they wish to have from http://www.facebook.com/TeaPartyConsortium so I may ship them to your offices for them to pick up. Certificates are active for 90 days, and at such time of expiration, this allotment may be used to assist other related programs, as accounted for http://www.facebook.com/TeaPartyConsortium/info .

Have a great summer, and let us all push for a great Convention and elect Republican leadership that is ready, willing, and able to restore our Nation.

NO... I DID NOT ATTEND THE CONVENTION, BECAUSE EITHER YOU ARE TRANSPARENT OR YOU’RE NOT. FINANCES ARE NOT A PRIVATE MATTER WHEN YOU ARE INVOLVED IN POLITICS FOR A REASON, FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION AND FOR THE INTEGRITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF THE GROUPS AND PEOPLE YOU SERVE.

IT IS THE ONLY WAY THE TEA PARTY IS DIFFERENT AND FUNCTIONS SO WELL TO MAINTAIN THE DISCIPLINE AND ORDER TO GET LEGISLATIVE TRACTION WHERE OTHER GROUPS DO NOT.

State GOP convention could have delegate, ethics fight

By Aaron Gould Sheinin
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Georgia Republicans gather today in Columbus for a state convention where delegates could send a powerful message to GOP leaders in the General Assembly: Strengthen Georgia's ethics laws.
But the move toward ethics reform might not be the only ruckus at the two-day conclave as party regulars, eager for a party united behind likely presidential nominee Mitt Romney, fear an attempt by Ron Paul supporters to crash the convention.
The state convention is typically the ultimate insiders' ball. Delegates from around the state vote on a variety of policy resolutions, hear speeches from elected officials and elect party leaders. Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich will make one of his first public appearances Saturday since ending his presidential bid. And, in presidential election years, conventioneers also elect a select group to be delegates to the Republican National Convention, to be held this year in Augus.
This year's convention might have a little added tension. Some grassroots activists, including Tea Party supporters, will push for a resolution calling on state lawmakers to strengthen ethics laws, which could include a cap on lobbyist gifts to legislators, something top Republicans in the House and Senate have not supported.
An ethics resolution would be received warmly, said Justin Tomczak, a Cobb County delegate who chairs Romney's 11th district campaign in Georgia.
"Republicans in Georgia are sick and tired of a few bad apples giving the rest of us bad name," he said. "Unfortunately, many of our party leaders have remained silent, leaving it up to the Tea Party, the media and conservative blogs to continue to put the spotlight on an isolated few who have lost their way. It is time for us to again show that Republicans are the party of strong ethics and clean government."
Jason Thompson of Suwanee, chairman of the 7th District GOP, said he doesn't know any delegate who doesn't support an ethics resolution.
"Everybody is (supporting the ethics resolution), except some of the people under the Gold Dome," Thompson said. "I can’t remember talking to anybody that’s against that. The only people I can think of are state representatives or state senators.”
Republican leaders in the General Assembly object to that characterization. Marshall Guest, spokesman for Speaker David Ralston, R-Blue Ridge, reiterated Thursday that his boss continues to think that transparency works better than caps.
Ralston helped push through ethics reform in 2010 that increased reporting by lobbyists and stiffened fines for late filers. The Legislature continues to make tweaks to ethics laws, too, and this year restored some funding to the state ethics commission.
The question this weekend is whether the issue reaches the convention floor for a full vote. Resolutions amount to statements of party beliefs; that is, delegates vote to affirm official party positions. But before resolutions reach the floor, they must first be approved by a committee chaired this year by former state Sen. Chip Pearson, D-Dawsonville. Pearson said Thursday he was not ready to discuss the resolutions.
What comes out of the committee concerns Alton Russell of Columbus, chairman of the 3rd District GOP. He believes the committee will consolidate several ethics resolutions and send one to the floor.
"To some extent, I agree with that, but I’m afraid they’re going to water it down," he said.
Meanwhile, 64 Georgians will be elected delegates or alternates to the Republican National Convention, to be held in August in Tampa. The slots are typically rewards to long-time party activists, donors and rising stars in the party.
In Tampa, those delegates' role will be to vote for a party nominee. There's little question that Romney will be the Republican nominee but Paul, the libertarian-leaning Texas congressman, has continued to try and amass delegates through state conventions after having largely failed to earn delegates through state primary elections.
But Bruno Rivera, 23, said the concern is misguided. Rivera is a Paul supporter and a delegate to the state convention.
"We're not trying to take over the party," Rivera said. "We're trying to cooperate with the party and with Republicans and see if we can find a better solution," Rivera said. "Obama is not qualified to run the nation another term, but we don't need another George W. Bush," he said referring to Romney.

It will be the second round of delegate selection, because regional party regulars in each of Georgia's 14 congressional districts already have chosen three people to represent their areas at the national convention, a total of 42.
This weekend the state convention will choose 31 more, along with a national committeeman and committeewoman to serve on the Republican National Committee.
The state party chair, Sue Everhart, also will represent Georgia on the RNC. Adding those three brings the state delegation's total to 76, the fourth largest at this convention.
The national party expects 2,286 delegates and 2,125 alternates this summer at its 40th presidential nominating convention.
Chris Kelleher of the state party said 2,115 delegates are expected here this weekend, and the total attendance likely will be about 3,000.
The national convention comes to a major metropolis every four years, but the state convention is held three out of every four years -- excluding years when Georgia elects a governor -- and it finds Columbus a convenient venue, said Josh McKoon, a Republican state senator and former Muscogee County party chairman.
The state convention has come to Columbus every presidential election year since 2000, he said.
Hometown advantage
"We're a more inexpensive venue, and the local folks here, the party folks, have worked very hard to make sure it's a hospitable site, and helped work with our vendors and everything," he said.
Why choose Columbus instead of say, Savannah?
"It is so expensive to have a meeting in Savannah," he said. "We're doing the party's business, but we're also looking to turn a profit. It's a lot easier to do that in a venue like Columbus, because the costs just aren't as high…. We've had a real good volunteer base, which helps them an awful lot."
Columbus can muster an army of laborers to hang banners, assemble gift bags and run errands, and that's a big factor, he said: "It's like moving the fair to town. They've got a trailer full of stuff they bring down here…. There's a package that is issued to each one of the delegates and those bags have to be stuffed, and you've got thousands of those, and then you've got preparing the convention hall, getting everything organized, decorating the room, stuff like that."
Among those attending the convention will be former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who's to speak Friday during a 7 p.m. banquet at the Trade Center and during a 7:30 a.m. breakfast Saturday honoring Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal.
Other elected leaders expected are U.S. Senators Johnny Isakson and Saxby Chambliss, Republican congressional representatives and state office-holders such as Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle and Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp.
Picking players
The delegates selected Saturday at the Civic Center are designated "at large."
At the national convention, most initially are bound to vote for Gingrich, who won Georgia's March 6 Republican Presidential Primary.
A few will be pledged to presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who got about 26 percent of Georgia's March 6 vote.
Those who want to go to the national convention submit a resume to a state nominating committee, which interviews prospects and submits a report of 31 delegates and 31 alternates, the latter to replace anyone who can't make the trip. State convention delegates vote on that report.
Any delegate can propose a competing slate, which all state delegates then would vote on, McKoon said: "That way you just have one vote instead of 62 different votes for each slot…. You can have multiple competing slates. Then what you do is you have a round of voting, and the bottom finisher drops off and you keep eliminating those until you get down to two, and then the winner of that final vote winds up being the slate that goes."
The state party also has a resolutions committee that proposes issue positions for the national party platform.
The convention votes on those, too, before they're sent to the national committee.
The convention convenes at 10 a.m. Saturday. Absent any contentious delays, it likely will end by mid-afternoon, McKoon said.

ARMED FORCES DAY... OH I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THE DEFENSE BILL ALSO INCLUDES THE PURPLE HEART FOR THOSE AT FORT HOOD AND OTHER VICTIMIZED BY INTERNAL ATTACKS.

United States
In the United States, Armed Forces Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in May. It falls near the end of Armed Forces Week, which begins on the second Saturday of May and ends on the third Sunday of May.[2]
The day was created in 1949 to honor Americans serving in the five U.S. military branches – the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force andCoast Guard – following the consolidation of the military services in the Department of Defense. It was intended to replace the separate Army-, Navy-, Air Force-, Marine Corps- and Coast Guard Days, but the separate days are still observed, especially within the respective services.[3]
The first Armed Forces Day was celebrated by parades, open houses, receptions and air shows. In 1962, President John F. Kennedyestablished Armed Forces Day as an official holiday. The United States' longest running city-sponsored Armed Forces Day Parade is held in Bremerton, Washington. In 2012, Bremerton celebrated the 64th year of the Armed Forces Day Parade.[4]
Because of their unique training schedules, National Guard and Reserve units may celebrate Armed Forces Day/Week over any period in the month of May.

Armed Forces Day, c. 2010

First, there's the Army.
It's been around since ... well, since the beginning. It totally created the idea of a voluntary force. But the US Army didn't celebrate a "birthday" until 1924. Then it celebrated again in 1925. Both times were on National Defense Test Day. It was not a popular holiday.
The date got moved to May Day in 1928 to compete with World Communism Day. Huh?
In 1936, FDR officially moved Army Day to April 6, the date we entered World War I.

Then there's the Navy.
From 1922-1950, Navy Day was celebrated on October 27 for two main reasons: In 1775, the Continental Congress decided to re-outfit merchant ships as warships, hence the idea of a naval corps was born. The other reason is that October 27 is the birthday of a former Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Theodore Roosevelt.

And the Marine Corps.
Ah, the Marines. They date to the Revolution, too. And like much about our Revolution, they find their way back to Philadelphia. Born on Nov. 19, 1775, the Marines said fare-thee-well after the Revolution was over. It was too costly. But in 1798 they were back and under the jurisdiction of the Navy.
Marine Corps Day traditionally was celebrated on the Marine Corps' birthday, Nov. 10.

Don't forget the Coast Guard.
Alexander Hamilton wouldn't: As Secretary of the Treasury, he created the first Coast Guard in 1790 for the express purpose of collecting US tariffs.Coast Guard Day traditionally was celebrated on August 4.

And then there's the Air Force.
Air Force Day was a completely different holiday. The Air Force was newer than any other military branch. On August 1 in 1907, the Army created an aeronautical division. On August 1 in 1947, President Truman recognized this branch of the military with an official Air Force Day, a part of the US Army. Now the Air Force is its own division of the military, the US Air Force.

United: The Dept. of Defense
In 1947, a governing body for all branches of the US military, was created: the Department of Defense. A few years later, all the military holidays were officially consolidated as well. Hence, Armed Forces Day, a day given to honor all the branches of the US military.

The original Armed Forces Day proclamation is here:

Haggai 1:9
Ye looked for much, and, lo, it came to little; and when ye brought it home, I did blow upon it. Why? saith the Lord of hosts. Because of mine house that is waste, and ye run every man unto his own house.

Churlish souls stint their contributions to the ministry and missionary operations, and call such saving good economy; little do they dream that they are thus impoverishing themselves. Their excuse is that they must care for their own families, and they forget that to neglect the house of God is the sure way to bring ruin upon their own houses. Our God has a method in providence by which He can succeed our endeavours beyond our expectation, or can defeat our plans to our confusion and dismay; by a turn of His hand He can steer our vessel in a profitable channel, or run it aground in poverty and bankruptcy. It is the teaching of Scripture that the Lord enriches the liberal and leaves the miserly to find out that withholding tendeth to poverty. In a very wide sphere of observation, I have noticed that the most generous Christians of my acquaintance have been always the most happy, and almost invariably the most prosperous. I have seen the liberal giver rise to wealth of which he never dreamed; and I have as often seen the mean, ungenerous churl descend to poverty by the very parsimony by which he thought to rise. Men trust good stewards with larger and larger sums, and so it frequently is with the Lord; He gives by cartloads to those who give by bushels. Where wealth is not bestowed the Lord makes the little much by the contentment which the sanctified heart feels in a portion of which the tithe has been dedicated to the Lord. Selfishness looks first at home, but godliness seeks first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, yet in the long run selfishness is loss, and godliness is great gain. It needs faith to act towards our God with an open hand, but surely He deserves it of us; and all that we can do is a very poor acknowledgment of our amazing indebtedness to His goodness.

House passes Violence Against Women Act, grudgingly

The Violence Against Women Act breezed through the Congress in previous years, but it's suddenly a heavy lift. The GOP House passed its version of the bill on a largely party-line vote, but getting to yes with the Senate will be tough.

Top 9 reasons Congress is broken

1. Insufficient presidential leadership

2. Republicans at fault, especially those newcomers

3. Too few with institutional knowledge

4. More fundraising, more problems

5. Hyperactive news media

6. The filibuster

7. You get the Congress you vote for

8. Interest groups rule, political parties drool

9. Congress is back to the future
