While Senator John McCain thinks that we should ‘love bomb’ Syria back to the dark ages, he’s come out this week saying it’s time that we legalize weed in America. In stark contrast to his anti-marijuana stance of the past, McCain now feels that legalization will be good for the economy and bad for the drug cartels in Mexico. What is this all about? Has John McCain ‘lost his mind’ as shared by Russ Belville in the video below? As a man who once advocated the death penalty for drugs, does John McCain now ‘respect the will of the people’ as he stated in delivering his new marijuana stance? If so, why does he disrespect the ‘will of the SAME people’ on Syria?   Continue reading “John McCain: Time To Legalize Weed”

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

While the world was glued to the developments in the Mediterranean in the past week, Poland took a page straight out of Rahm Emanuel’s playbook and in order to not let a crisis go to waste, announced quietly that it would transfer to the state – i.e., confiscate – the bulk of assets owned by the country’s private pension funds (many of them owned by such foreign firms as PIMCO parent Allianz, AXA, Generali, ING and Aviva), without offering any compensation. In effect, the state just nationalized roughly half of the private sector pension fund assets, although it had a more politically correct name for it: pension overhaul.   Continue reading “Poland Confiscates Half Of Private Pension Funds To “Cut” Sovereign Debt Load”

In an interview with Time, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said that she doesn’t know if a majority of House Democrats will support President Barack Obama’s rush to war with Syria.

“I don’t know. I think it would be important to get a majority in the Congress,” said Pelosi in response to a question about support in the Democratic caucus for military strikes against Syria. “But I don’t know if it’s important how you would break it down. These issues are not really partisan.”   Continue reading “Pelosi is unsure that House Democrats will back Syria intervention”

The DC Caller – by Reza Kahili

As Congress debates whether to support President Obama’s call for a limited strike against Syria for the alleged use of chemical weapons, Iran is vowing to back Bashar al-Assad’s regime to the hilt and threatening to unleash terrorism should the U.S. strike.

Your voices aren’t being heard by this administration. They will silence you by any means necessary. This government doesn’t give a crap what we think or want, in regards to the Syrian conflict. Which, by the way, is none of our damn business! We are not the police of the world. We were not attacked by Syria. It is a civil war and we have no business interfering. Our 1st, 2nd, and 4th amendments are being ripped away from us! This cannot stand! Activists who protested President Obama’s plan to launch a military strike against Syria were dragged out of the Senate hearing on Tuesday after vocally opposing statements by Secretary of State Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel.   Continue reading “Protesters Kicked Out Of Syria Hearing”

Atheist Familys Lawsuit to Axe Under God From Pledge of Allegiance Heads to Massachusetts Supreme CourtThe Blaze – by Billy Hallowell, September 3, 2013

The US Park Police Is The New UN Police ForceThe Common Sense Show – by Dave Hodges

How many bad policemen does it take to say that we are living in a police state? Of all the abuses of power by the newly federalized police across America, there is one law enforcement agency that is moving to the head of the class with regard to invoking police state type of tactics against innocent American citizens, and that agency would be the United States Park Police. However, the United States Park Police is a misnomer because the title of this agency should be The United Nations Park Police. The unconstitutional and brutal practices of this Gestapo organization provides Americans with a glimpse of what it will be like to live under the New World Order under its Agenda 21 policies.   Continue reading “The US Park Police Is the New UN Police Force”

New Gun Control Executive Orders to eliminate corporate jackings. Photo: FoxNews.comAmmoLand

USA –-(Ammoland.com)- The shooting community was stunned by two Executive Orders from the Obama administration earlier this week.

One of the proclamations effectively closes a secret loophole commonly used by street thugs, gang members, and the Reverend Al Sharpton. Under current law, legally formed corporations and trust officers are able to purchase restricted firearms such as short-barreled shotguns, automatic rifles and sound suppressors. The new Executive Order mandates finger prints, background checks and local law enforcement approval of officers and trustees before these legal entities can apply for special permits from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Although the process is cumbersome, federally controlled and takes 6 to 12 months to complete, administration officials are convinced that low lifes and gang bangers are taking advantage.   Continue reading “President’s Gun Control Executive Order Will Totally Reduce Street Crime”

A senior Syrian opposition figure warned Washington that all its interests in the region will be attacked by battalions of suicide bombers formed by the Syrian opposition forces if it dares to attack Syria, stressing that homeland is more important to the dissidents than opposition to the government.

“Although, we are among the Syrian government’s opposition forces, we assume our homeland’s interests to be more important than any other interest and therefore, we have formed a number of battalions to conduct suicide operations and target the US interests in the Middle-East,” Secretary-General of al-Shabab Party Mahir Marhaj told FNA on Saturday.   Continue reading “Syrian Opposition Vows to Join Ranks with Assad if US Attacks Syria”

Eating TunaDr. Mercola

When you eat tuna, there’s a good chance you’re not actually eating tuna. Instead, the majority of fish labeled ‘white tuna’ may actually be escolar, a type of fish that can cause serious digestive effects, including oily anal leakage.

Oceana, the non-profit ocean protection group that revealed the findings, further found that nearly 60 percent of ‘tuna’ sold at restaurants and grocery stores is another type of fish entirely – and the results fared worst for sushi restaurants.1   Continue reading “59% of the ‘Tuna’ Americans Eat Is Not Tuna”
