Someone in the US Senate or HOR is going to be sacrificed, maybe a clerk or an aide? i don't know, but the rhetoric by ALL the talking heads is getting very ugly. These TURDS who stole the Tea Party make me sick, they can all choke themselves as far as I am concerned. And for the left, they don't even know that they have committed Political Jonestown by following Pelosi, Reid, and Obama with this government controlled HC. You can put a leather coat on a turd, but it's still a turd.

If we even make to the summer without any violent actions breaking out, which I doubt. The President will be waiting to stop the elections and declare Martial Law when the violence does break out to allegedly protect the citizens. In actuallity, he doesn't want to lose control of the House and Senate.

There will be, and there are agent provoceteurs within all factions to stir the pot and get things heated. Don't believe me, that's fine, your loss, I have done it, in training and for real world situations in places I cannot say. There are those who think I am whacked, YES I AM ! SO WHAT !
I am ready, I don't live life on a hair trigger, but I am aware. I look up in the sky daily and see chemtrails, not contrails, and I know that the planes above are spraying chemicals. Contrails disapear after 1 minute. Chemtrails spread out because they are aerosol particals and other chemicals, look them up.

Just be ready for some unfortunate accident and the finger pointing and the "Men in Black" and it ain't gonna be Will Smith !

FROM CNN's Jack Cafferty:

At the NCAA tournament, the basketball team that loses shakes hands with the team that wins. It's called sportsmanship.

You see the same thing at NFL games, the World Series and boxing matches.

But where you don't see it much these days is in Washington, DC. We have become so bitterly divided that people on the losing side of a political debate - in the case of health care reform, Republicans and their supporters - have taken to hurling insults, using names like Baby Killer and using the most vile racial epithets to refer to African-American members of the United States Congress, as well as our President.

These recent examples follow the beginning of this descent into schoolyard behavior when during the President's State of the Union address - a Republican congressman yelled out: "You lie!"

That followed talk of death panels and the government killing your grandmother.

This kind of behavior by our leaders sends a subliminal message that this kind of behavior is acceptable, and eventually you get to death threats and perhaps worse.

What exactly are we becoming here? Do members of Congress start punching each other and throwing furniture the way they do in some legislative bodies elsewhere in the world?

In fighting health care reform at every step of the way, the Republicans may have made the political miscalculation of the century. When Republican Scott Brown won in Massachusetts, the GOP figured it had the health care debate in the bag and they didn't even have to be nice about it anymore.

But they lost, and now the residue of the bile they spewed during the debate has left a nasty taste in everyone's mouth.

Here?s my question to you: Are Republicans sore losers?

Interested to know which ones made it on air?


Richard writes:
Republicans are not only sore losers but are also promoters of hateful rhetoric which has now been taken beyond just words. The party has spent so much time and effort convincing people that they should fear their government and yet they completely disavow themselves of any responsibility when those same people begin to act, in some cases, dangerously.

Adam writes:
Positively, I don't remember hearing or seeing the Democrats jumping up and down pouting about the Bush tax cuts. You win the election, you set the agenda! The GOP keeps saying they are in favor of health care reform, but when they controlled Congress, I do not remember hearing one word about it. It was all tax cuts for the wealthy and spending the surplus invading sovereign nations.

Joe writes:
Yes, most definitely they are! Not only are they sore losers, I really feel that what they hate most was losing to an African-American.

Danny writes:
What a shame and disgrace that the Republicans have to act like bullies because they did not get their way. I have never done this before, but I have made a commitment that I will not vote Republican ever again? Those that make up the Republican Party, the religious right, the tea partiers, the social elite and mostly the wealthy, would have their will imposed on all of us who would disagree with them. Until we can agree to be disagreeable without being mean spirited, we have a very bleak future ahead, for all of us.
.......................................................................


I said this along time ago and the thing that really bothers me most is that the two partys cannot unite and work together to get things done.

Not one Rep voted for Health Care reform . Not one. Its sick. The only thing they are worried about is losing the next elections in the future because Obama was able to get this done.

And of course all the right wingers have to throw up the appeals and make it look like they are doing something when it reality its just a dog and pony show to save their own dumb asses.

I got news for ya. This aint going to be repealed.

They are barking at the fawking moon.

Such a sad state of affairs.

For a head of government to visit the White House and not pose for photographers is rare. For a key ally to be left to his own devices while the President withdraws to have dinner in private was, until this week, unheard of. Yet that is how Binyamin Netanyahu was treated by President Obama on Tuesday night, according to Israeli reports on a trip viewed in Jerusalem as a humiliation.

After failing to extract a written promise of concessions on settlements, Mr Obama walked out of his meeting with Mr Netanyahu but invited him to stay at the White House, consult with advisers and ?let me know if there is anything new?, a US congressman, who spoke to the Prime Minister, said.

?It was awful,? the congressman said. One Israeli newspaper called the meeting ?a hazing in stages?, poisoned by such mistrust that the Israeli delegation eventually left rather than risk being eavesdropped on a White House telephone line. Another said that the Prime Minister had received ?the treatment reserved for the President of Equatorial Guinea?.

Left to talk among themselves Mr Netanyahu and his aides retreated to the Roosevelt Room. He spent a further half-hour with Mr Obama and extended his stay for a day of emergency talks to try to restart peace negotiations. However, he left last night with no official statement from either side. He returned to Israel yesterday isolated after what Israeli media have called a White House ambush for which he is largely to blame.

Israel threatens to block peace talks for year
Sources said that Mr Netanyahu failed to impress Mr Obama with a flow chart purporting to show that he was not responsible for the timing of announcements of new settlement projects in east Jerusalem. Mr Obama was said to be livid when such an announcement derailed the visit to Israel by Joe Biden, the Vice-President, this month and his anger towards Israel does not appear to have cooled.

Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary, cast doubt on minor details in Israeli accounts of the meeting but did not deny claims that it amounted to a dressing down for the Prime Minister, whose refusal to freeze settlements is seen in Washington as the main barrier to resuming peace talks.

The Likud leader has to try to square the rigorous demands of the Obama Administration with his nationalist, ultra-Orthodox coalition partners, who want him to stand up to Washington even though Israel needs US backing in confronting the threat of a nuclear Iran.

?The Prime Minister leaves America disgraced, isolated and altogether weaker than when he came,? the Israeli daily newspaper Haaretz said.

In their meeting Mr Obama set out expectations that Israel was to satisfy if it wanted to end the crisis, Israeli sources said. These included an extension of the freeze on Jewish settlement growth beyond the ten-month deadline next September, an end to building projects in east Jerusalem and a withdrawal of Israeli forces to positions held before the second intifada in September 2000.

Newspaper reports recounted how Mr Netanyahu looked ?excessively concerned and upset? when he pulled out a flow chart to show Mr Obama how Jerusalem planning permission worked and how he could not have known that the announcement that hundreds more homes were to be built would be made when Mr Biden arrived in Jerusalem.

Mr Obama then suggested that Mr Netanyahu and his staff stay at the White House to consider his proposals so that if he changed his mind he could inform the President right away. ?I?m still around,? the daily newspaper Yediot Aharonot quoted Mr Obama as saying. ?Let me know if there is anything new.?

With the atmosphere so soured by the end of the evening, the Israelis decided that they could not trust the telephone line they had been lent for their consultations. Mr Netanyahu and Ehud Barak, his Defence Minister, went to the Israeli Embassy to ensure that the Americans were not listening in.

The meeting came barely a day after Mr Obama?s health reform victory. Israel had calculated that he would be too tied up with domestic issues to focus seriously on the Middle East.
.................................................................

Finally a US President that stood up to Isreal.

Geezz when was the last time that happened.

We are usually kissing their ass

They need to get off that settlement stuff or this peace process will never get done.

..................................................................

I really dont understand where you are coming from with this.

In my own life I worry about things before they ever happen and most shit I worry about does not.
Its so much easier to not worry but I am not that type of person.

As far as losing my freedoms, I cant remember worrying about that in my life. I havnt seen that much that really affects my day to day life.

Taking off my shoes at the airport. no biggy

Just removing your skids, no biggie, well that's a violation of your privacy to begin with. It will be much worse.

In all the places I have been we have restricted peoples travel, put curfews on them. We were constantly searching them, violating the basic human rights. How fun will that be here in the Great old USA ?


Now Mobile Devices Will Scan Your Naked Body On The Streets

Airport tyranny comes to your door, as predicted


Naked body scanners are being readied to go mobile and scan you on the street, at football games and any other event where masses of people are congregated, according to a leaked paper written by Dutch authorities.
As we have been warning all along, the tyranny now being metered out at airports was always intended to be rolled out onto the streets, with mobile metal detectors already being stationed at various transport hubs in the UK in the name of stopping knife crime.
Now Dutch police have announced that they are developing a mobile scanner that will ?see through people?s clothing and look for concealed weapons?.
According to a confidential document, ?The scanner could first be used as an alternative to random body searches in high risk areas. The mobile detector would enable the search to be carried out more quickly and would only be used on people suspected of carrying concealed weapons,? reports Dutch News.nl <SUP>[2]</SUP>.
The device would also be used from a distance on groups of people ?and mass scans on crowds at events such as football matches.?
?The biggest challenge is making it portable and ensuring it can carry out a scan in seconds,? Giampiero Gerini, a professor at Eindhoven University, told the paper.
The aim is to develop and deploy the device within three years. With police in major American and British cities already carrying out random searches of innocent people under routinely abused terrorism laws, mobile scanners are likely to be added to their arsenal, especially if people have been trained to accept their use as routine in airports.


Three years ago, leaked documents out of the Home Office revealed <SUP>[4]</SUP> that authorities in the UK were working on proposals to fit lamp posts with CCTV cameras that would X-ray scan passers-by and ?undress them? in order to ?trap terror suspects?.
?The questions are when is this a useful addition to security and when does it become unduly intrusive and worrying to the public?? said Professor Paul Wilkinson, a terrorism expert.
Since everything that we see being installed at the airports is now gradually being introduced on the streets, how long will it be before mind-reading devices that scan individuals for behavioral psychology, now being discussed for use in airports, are stationed on every major street corner?
The technologies now being prepared not just for the airport, but for our everyday lives, are far more frightening and technologically advanced than anything George Orwell wrote about in 1984. Unless we stand up in unison and say enough is enough, our world will become a literal hi-tech prison grid characterized by a caste system of slaves and controllers.​



Dutch police develop mobile body scans

Friday 08 January 2010
Rotterdam police are trying to develop a portable scanner which will allow them to see through people's clothing and look for concealed weapons, the NRC reports on Friday.
The force has been given a ?500,000 government grant to develop the mobile weapons detector, which would use similar technology to the scanners being introduced at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport, the paper says.
The aim is to develop a prototype ready for production within three years.
The paper bases its claim on a confidential document which suggests the scanner could first be used as an alternative to random body searches in high risk areas. The mobile detector would enable the search to be carried out more quickly and would only be used on people suspected of carrying concealed weapons, police spokesman Paul De Kruijf told the paper.
The document also mentions the possibility of carrying out long-distance scans and mass scans on crowds at events such as football matches. In addition, the scan could be combined with a sniffer detector which would analyse an 'air sample' from a suspect for traces of drugs or explosives, the paper says.
Giampiero Gerini, a professor at Eindhoven University of Technology told the paper the technology to develop such scans is now mature. 'The biggest challenge is making it portable and ensuring it can carry out a scan in seconds,' the NRC quotes him as saying.



Isn't that just fucking special ? Now they can just roll up and have you walk thru anytime, anywhere. To get into a mall, the movies, concerts and sporting events.

I guess you will know it when you see it ?

I look at it as the world is a much more dangerous place than 30 years ago.

We cannot trust that a terrorist is not going to try to do something stupid in the US

I am a fairly law abiding citizen.

They can search me. If I have a gun , I have the permit.

Everyone always says yeh but wait until next year and see what happens.

I aint thinking about that shit.

I guess I'm more concerned with all the earthquakes and volcano action going on of late. Makes me think the Mayans may know the real story with the 2012 stuff. And we're supposed to have a bad hurricane season, too? I dunno.

I don't expect to see Obama kick off martial law any time, soon, though. JMO, FWIW.

I characterize people like Palin, Beck. Rush, Hannity as "careless." The "collateral damage" they inflict on others' lives is incalculable, but they just go on living their own way as if nothing has happened. They are impervious to the plight of others. Other people are, in fact, virtually invisible to them, acknowledged only as a means to an end. You could call it a narcissistic personality disorder, and no amount of education will cure that. They are worse than an ignorant fools, they are dangerous. Shun them.

I believe sometning will happen, and I am far from being a fearmonger. I tend to look at things as Scott, but if you look at history, we have things in place for violence.

We are at the place in American times where the poor realize their government really doesn't give a fuck about them. The government never has but its never been more evident than it is now.

Whats funny is the riches that Palin, Beck, Limbaugh and Haniity have can be undone by all the hate they are causing. I plan on being around for a long time. Its gonna be interesting.

There is something wrong with the American way when Sarah Palin has shopped a TV show to History channel for 1 million a episode.

And they I read that Jeter wants to buy a baseball team. To have sports figures make that much money to become owners. WTF i:SIB

There is something inherantly wrong here.
