ACORN = URBAN TERRORISTS + OBAMA = ACORN'S MENTOR = RESULT, INEPTNESS

Linked: White House and ‘urban terrorism’

Barack Obama’s favorite advocacy organization, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), is part political group, part crime syndicate and part urban terrorist organization, according to a stunning new book, “Subversion Inc.,” by award-winning investigative journalist Matthew Vadum.
Vadum, senior editor at Capital Research Center, a think tank that studies left-wing advocacy groups and their funders, has assembled the information from nearly three years of research and hundreds of interviews, in the project.
He documents how ACORN’s sinister motives, however, never stopped Obama from supporting the organization. Obama organized its voter drives, represented it in court, trained its activists, and mentored its leaders. In fact, ACORN was so important to Obama that during the 2008 presidential campaign he felt compelled to reassure ACORN officials that he was still a steadfast ally.

OBAMA DEMORALIZES INTELLIGENCE PERSONNEL

Bush Attorney General Slams Obama Terror Policies

By Andra Varin


The killing of Osama bin Laden was a great victory for the U.S. intelligence community, but it may well be the last one because of the Obama administration’s refusal to use tough tactics such as waterboarding on terror suspects, former U.S. Attorney General Michael Mukasey warns.

The information that led U.S. agents to bin Laden could not have been obtained without stringent interrogation methods, Mukasey writes in The Wall Street Journal.

Bin LADEN'S DEATH CHANGES LITTLE - WAR ON TERROR CONTINUES

Evil does not die of natural causes

By Charles Krauthammer, Published: May 5

Two months and a day before 9/11, terrorism expert Larry C. Johnson published “The Declining Terrorist Threat,” a New York Times op-ed decrying the fact that “Americans are bedeviled by fantasies about terrorism,” when, in reality, “the decade beginning in 2000 will continue the downward trend” in lethal terrorism.
Not quite.
A decade later, Osama bin Laden is dead and the old chorus of pre-9/11 complacency has returned. The war on terror is over — yet again, it seems. Bin Laden was but “a distraction,” writes Peter Beinart, and the war on terror “a mistake from the start.” 9/11 was nothing more than “an isolated case,” argues Ross Douthat. And “bin Laden was always the weak horse.”

OBAMA SEEKING WAYS TO END ANY BUSINESS CONTRIBUTIONS TO GOP! TO THINK HE IS PRESIDENT IS SICKENING!

GOP Warns Obama Not to Issue Executive Order for Government Contractors


Republicans are warning President Obama not to issue an executive order that would require government contractors to disclose their political donations.
Obama drafted the proposal last month, which is reminiscent of a provision in a Democratic bill called the Disclose Act that died in the Congress last year.
That bill would have required corporations and unions to identify themselves in political ads they pay for – a response to a 5-4 Supreme Court ruling that upheld the First Amendment rights of these groups to spend money on campaign ads.

ARE WE NEAR THE END? CAN'T AMERICA BE RETURNED TO GREATNESS? (lengthy)

"IN THE DAY OF THE GREAT SLAUGHTER,
   WHEN THE TOWERS FALL"
(Isa 30:25)

[Does the Bible Reference the Trade Center's Twin Towers?]

WHEN IS THE END OF THIS WORLD?
Over the years I have been asked many times whether or not I thought the end of this world was near and the coming of our Lord was at hand? This question is usually asked with reference to some recent happening in the world, such as a war or rumor of wars, bad weather, famine, a new potential disease epidemic, some huge earthquake, volcano, hurricane, or a tsunami. These events are general, and have been with us for thousands of years. So my answer was always pretty much the same: "No, I do not believe that the end of the world is near, but certainly "…now our salvation is nearer than when we believed" (Rom.13:11). But that all changed on "September 11, 2001." This to me was not a "general" catastrophic happening as has been witnessed time and again, but this was a very specific catastrophe unlike anything before it.
Back in 2002 I gave a short lecture on 9-11. I now wish to make public to our readers the prophetic implications of this colossal disaster, as I believe is attested to in the Book of Isaiah.

NEVADA - GOV BRIAN SANDOVAL REPORT 05/06/2011

Raising Taxes Will Harm Our Fragile Economic Recovery
"We can't tax our way out ... but we can and will grow our way out," the governor said. Some will say even an extra $270 million for the coming biennium "is not enough, yet they offer no plan" to find the extra money "without harming the fragile economic recovery Nevada is now experiencing."

First the tears, now the anger: Pakistanis burn U.S. flags as backlash over Bin Laden's death grows
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1383011/Osama-Bin-Laden-dead-Pakistanis-burn-US-flags-backlash-grows.html
I’m as outraged and offended by Muslims burning the US Flag as Muslims are over some American burning the Qur’an. So if I go nuts and slaughter the nearest Muslim, who is entirely innocent but handy, it will not be my fault, right, but the fault of those flag-burning Muslims for provoking me and not being sensitive to my feelings, the Americaophobic bastards! And if the innocent-murdering bin Laden who Obama assured us (rightly) had slaughtered many more Muslims than kuffer doesn’t represent Islam, why are so many Muslims weeping for him? He must have represented them. ~Bob. Excerpt: These were the angry scenes across Pakistan today as Muslims staged protests against the killing of Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden. Hundreds of people marched through Multan, burning U.S. flags and waving placards as they warned the terrorist's death could produce many more radical figures to take his place. It comes after crowds of weeping mourners were pictured offering funeral prayers for the Al Qaeda mastermind widely blamed for thousands of deaths at 9/11.

When Will the SEALs Kill George W. Bush?
Sarah Palin inciting violence again? Nah, just some liberal radio guy. Perfectly acceptable. Nothing to see here. ~Bob. Excerpt: If any American with a patriotic pulse listened to the Mike Malloy radio show, they would have been shocked on Monday night when Malloy outrageously suggested that Navy SEALs should have shot former president George W. Bush, and not Osama bin Laden.

'SPECIAL RIGHTS GRANTED TRANSGENDERED BY EXECUTIVE ORDER. IS THAT CONSTITUTIONAL?

Sex Change You Can Believe In! Obama Enacts Transgender Policies by Executive Fiat
By Ben Johnson, FloydReports.com


Call it sex-change you can believe in. This author reported Tuesday that Barack Obama had held the first-ever White House transgender conference last Friday. The People’s House conducted this proud meeting in such complete secrecy that we know the identity of only one attendee, Mara Keisling of the National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE), a group lobbying for “a comprehensive civil rights bill that protects people from discrimination based on gender identity.” The measure, which would forbid private individuals from refusing to do business with or rent a home to a cross-dresser, is but one of many extremist policies that earned NCTE a meeting with White House brass. The U.S. Civil Rights Commission is now planning to “hold its first-ever hearing to specifically address the civil rights of LGBT people.” Despite these “firsts,” the Obama administration has already advanced transgender interest groups through a series of executive fiats. If you don’t believe me, believe The Huffington Post. It remarked that a recent housing proposal “marks the latest in a string of Obama administration attempts to enhance gay rights through federal regulation.” Some of the administration’s actions literally redefine the government’s definition of the family, stifle any opposition to gender confusion, and encourage schoolchildren to think of transgender practices as normal and mainstream (or else).

LIBERAL MEDIA CONFUSED BY THEIR OWN BIAS?

I just love listening to the Liberal talking heads and their media lapdogs who refuse to challenge them.  If you listen to blabbermouths like Chris Matthews and others of his ilk, you would think that we Tea Party members have all been fitted for white robes and hoods.  You would think we're all collecting fuel for the next cross burning and are preparing to start a race war.

OBAMA WANTS TO SILENCE CONSERVATIVES - WANTS TOTAL CONTROL OVER NEWS!

McCarthy to Obama: Speech is Constitutionally Protected
Washington, D.C. – House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is calling on President Barack Obama not to issue an Executive Order designed to limit the speech of organizations that oppose the Obama Administration’s policies. McCarthy is joined by 20 co-signers on the letter, including the Chairmen of 19 House Committees.

“Much like the DISLCOSE Act, which failed to garner enough support to pass during the 111th Congress, this proposed EO seems like a blatant attempt to intimidate, and potentially silence, certain speakers who are engaged in their constitutionally protected right to free speech,” McCarthy said in a letter to the President.

Additional signers of the letter include Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Agriculture Committee Chairman Frank Lucas, Appropriations Committee Chairman Hal Rogers, Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon, Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairman John Kline, Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Fred Upton, Financial Services Committee Chairman Spencer Bachus, Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King, House Administration Committee Chairman Dan Lungren, Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, Natural Resources Committee Chairman Doc Hastings, Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, Rules Committee Chairman David Dreier, Science, Space and Technology Committee Chairman Ralph Hall, Small Business Committee Chairman Sam Graves, Transportation and Infrastructure  Committee Chairman John Mica, Veterans' Affairs Committee Chairman Jeff Miller and Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp.

The text of the letter is below.

UNEMPLOYMENT SCAM CONTINUES




From the Bureau of Lies and Scams (BLS):
Nonfarm payroll employment rose by 244,000 in April, and the unemployment rate edged up to 9.0 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in several service providing industries, manufacturing, and mining.
That sounds good.  The unemployment rate edged up as allegedly more people came back into the workforce:

Al QAEDA ISSUES THREATS - PREPARE YOURSELVES!

Submitted by: Doris Parker
CAIRO — Al-Qaida on Friday confirmed the killing of Osama bin Laden and warned of retaliation, saying America's "happiness will turn to sadness."


The confirmation came in an Internet statement posted on militant websites, signed by "the general leadership" of al-Qaida.
The announcement opens the way for the group to name a successor to bin Laden.
His deputy Ayman al-Zawahri is now the most prominent figure in the group and is a very likely contender to take his place. The U.S.-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, thought to be hiding in Yemen, has also been mentioned as a possible successor.

FRAP 28 (j) Citation of Supplemental Authorities

Third District Court of Appeals of CA, in Keyes et al v Bowen et al C 062321 Third District Court of Appeals of CA which was based on a prior decision in Robinson v Bowen 567 F. Supp. 2d at p1147 from U.S. District Court for the Northern District of CA. Both Robinson and Keyes dealt with the challenge of presidential eligibility. Robinson dealt with the challenge of the eligibility of senator McCain in light of his birth in the city of Colon, Panama and Keyes challenged eligibility of senator Obama in light of lack of long form birth certificate. Both cases were filed against the Secretary of State of CA Debra Bowen. Both the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of CA and the Third District court of Appeals in Ca concurred that the proper time to challenge presidential eligibility, is after the election and after the congressional confirmation.
