In terms of pure projectable power, there’s never been anything like it. Its military has divided the world — the whole planet — into six “commands.” Its fleet, with 11 aircraft carrier battle groups, rules the seas and has done so largely unchallenged for almost seven decades.
Its Air Force has ruled the global skies, and despite being almost continuously in action for years, hasn’t faced an enemy plane since 1991 or been seriously challenged anywhere since the early 1970s. Continue reading “Why Washington just can’t stop making war”
The 10 highest-paid chief executives officers (CEO’s) in the United States each received at least $100 million in 2012, even as the wages of working people sinks, according to a new survey of executive pay.
According to GMI Ratings annual poll of executive compensation, released on Tuesday, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s co-founder, was America’s highest-paid boss in 2012, earning a staggering $2.27 billion or more than $6 million a day. Continue reading “Top 10 US CEOs earned nearly $5bn”

Fifty senators are standing together to protect the right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment.
In a letter addressed to President Barack Obama, the senators enumerated six reasons the president should refuse to present the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) to the Senate for ratification. Among the objections raised by the senatorial signatories is the ambiguity of the treaty, as well as the grant to “foreign sources of authority” the power to “impose judgment or control on the U.S.” Continue reading “50 Senators Warn Obama: We Will Not Ratify UN Arms Treaty”

More than 10 months after Adam Lanza massacred 26 students and faculty and committed suicide at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut, questions still abound in the midst of conspiracy theories and prolonged speculation. The October 21 edition of The Hartford Courant, which has been following the story closely since the mass murder last December 14, ran an editorial complaining about State Attorney Stephen Sedensky’s delay in releasing the full investigative report, originally expected by the end of June. In the meantime, says the Courant, details continue to leak, feeding “the sick conspiracy mill and prolong[ing] the pain.” Continue reading “What Do Sandy Hook Investigators Have to Hide?”
There are several horrendous aspects to this video: 1.) Adelson being taken seriously as some sort of analyst on Iran 2.) The belligerent manner in which Sheldon Adelson calls for nuking Iran. 3.) The approving response of the audience. 4.) Rabbi Shmuley Boteach not challenging or rebutting Adelson immediately. All in all an epic moral failure.

More than 700 websites have been created with names playing off of Obamacare or Healthcare.gov, making it likely that some Americans will mistakenly hand over private information to unknown third-parties.
For instance, there is a website — www.obama-care.us — that brands itself as part of the “Obamacare enrollment team,” directs people to an “Obamacare enrollment form” and asks users for their name, address, Social Security number and other contact information. According to a counter at the bottom of the page, more than 3,000 people have visited obama-care.us.

President Barack Hussein Obama is picking a fight with gun owners once again. As reported by The Blaze on Tuesday:
One day after a deadly middle school shooting in Nevada, President Barack Obama “remains committed” to pushing for stricter gun control laws and will “keep at it,” White House press secretary Jay Carney said Tuesday. Continue reading “Obama Plugs for Gun Control in Wake of Nevada Shooting”
Assaulting peaceful protesters with pepper spray can be awfully stressful, and John Pike certainly knows it better than most. Now a judge has awarded $38,000 to the former University of California cop filmed discharging his weapon on Occupy demonstrators.
Administrative Law Judge Harter has approved a workers’ compensation settlement totaling $38,059 between UC Davis and Pike, a former Marine-turned-campus law enforcement lieutenant, according to Yolo County’s Davis Enterprise newspaper.

Right off the bat, I will credit Gary North for putting words together that crystalized this idea in my head.
The rollout of Obamacare is a bomb (O-bomb-a has a new meaning, it appears).
President Barack Obama sought on Monday to limit political damage from the problematic launch of the government website for his signature healthcare law… Continue reading “Hooray for ObamaCare!”

Mark Witaschek, a successful financial adviser with no criminal record, is facing two years in prison for possession of unregistered ammunition after D.C. police raided his house looking for guns. Mr. Witaschek has never had a firearm in the city, but he is being prosecuted to the full extent of the law. The trial starts on Nov. 4.

Wisconsin –-(Ammoland.com)- The Canadians do law enforcement very similarly to the US–understandable, considering both countries learned their basic law enforcement skills from Mother England.
The biggest difference in US and Canadian law enforcement is that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) is a national police force. A Mountie has full police powers anywhere in Canada. If RCMP Constable Smith, who works in Vancouver, British Columbia on the far west coast of his country, is on holiday on Prince Edward Island on the far east coast of his country, he can enforce Canadian law.

Governments and private entities throughout the world spent $359 billion last year – or nearly $1 billion per day – to prevent global warming even though the Earth’s temperature has remained virtually flat for the past 17 years.
But even $1 billion a day is apparently not enough, according to the Climate Policy Initiative’s (CPI) “Global Landscape of Climate Finance 2013” report released Tuesday, exactly one month after NASA researchers recorded a new record for sea ice in the Antarctic. Continue reading “$1Billion/Day To Prevent Global Warming As Antarctic Sea Ice Hits Record High”

Here’s a penny for your thoughts: One red cent could’ve landed you the Navy’s first supercarrier, the decommissioned Forrestal.
The U.S. Navy sold the 1,067-foot behemoth to a Texas company, All Star Metals, to be dismantled, scrapped and recycled, Navy officials announced. It’s an inauspicious fate for a ship with a colorful — and tragic — history. It’s perhaps best known for a 1967 incident in which stray voltage triggered an accidental explosion that struck a plane on the flight deck whose cockpit was occupied by a young John McCain. A chain reaction of blasts and fires ultimately killed 134 men and injured more than 300. Continue reading “USS Forrestal, the Navy’s first supercarrier, sold for 1 cent”

In Washington state battle, pro-GMO lobbyists forced to expose illegally hidden donors
Following ongoing legal pressure from campaign groups and the Washington State Attorney General’s office, pro-GMO trade group the Grocery Manufacturers Association released a list of high rolling donors to their campaign aimed at blocking GMO labeling in the state.

The contamination of Japan after the Fukushima accident has been investigated mainly for volatile fission products, but only sparsely for actinides such as plutonium. Only small releases of actinides were estimated in Fukushima. Plutonium is still omnipresent in the environment from previous atmospheric nuclear weapons tests. We investigated soil and plants sampled at different hot spots in Japan, searching for reactor-borne plutonium using its isotopic ratio 240Pu/239Pu. Continue reading “Plutonium release from Fukushima Daiichi fosters the need for more detailed investigations”

Progressives love statistics. That’s because progressives lie. We know, as Mark Twain knew, that statistics lie; and progressives love nothing more than lies and propaganda.
There are lies, damned lies and statistics. Mark Twain
Examples of lying statistics that progressives embrace are those that “prove” that racial profiling exists in traffic stops, that minority groups suffer from voter suppression, and that blacks get inferior health care, all because of racism.

China and India combined have more coal-burning energy plants than the rest of the world, and China has more than India. Japanese scientists are openly complaining that the almost 13,000 foot Mt. Fuji is coated with toxic mercury from China’s coal burning plants.
Some Chinese scientists have challenged that by explaining Mt. Fuji’s high mercury counts could be from other sources, but Japanese scientists have noted the mercury count is highest when the air currents are westerly from the Chinese mainland. They say they are lowest when Pacific air currents come through. Continue reading “China’s industrial pollution is so bad that it’s dumping toxic mercury on Japan’s Mount Fuji”
A video featuring a bizarre, mind-boggling REAL chat session with Healthcare.gov support staff is going viral across the ‘net. It reveals the shocking depth of insanity that now passes for “support” inside a government program that Obama still unbelievably claims is “a great product!”
In the video and transcript shown below, Obamacare support staff actually tell a customer this totally bizarre, meaningless statement, “Imagine you are stuck in this site’s rush hour traffic. You still exist. You just aren’t going anywhere.” Continue reading “Actual chat session with Healthcare.gov support staff reveals mind-boggling insanity, total detachment from reality”
