When asked, “Are you in favor of scrapping [Obamacare] and going back to start over?”, famed investor Warren Buffett said on CNBC March 1, 2010, “I would be — if I were President Obama.”
Buffett insisted that without changes to America’s health system average citizens will suffer.
“We have a health system that, in terms of costs, is really out of control,” he added. “And if you take this line and you project what has been happening into the future, we will get less and less competitive. So we need something else.” Continue reading “Buffett: Scrap Obamacare and Start All Over”
At a recent event held by the Cato Institute concerning the NSA’s surveillance overreach, Washington Post reporter Barton Gellman, who broke the PRISM story and (of course) has been one of the three key reporters on all of the Snowden docs, noted that the feds begged him not to reveal the nine companies listed as participants in the PRISM program. Gellman and the Post refused, noting that the government’s reasons for wanting to keep the names out didn’t raise any legitimate security concerns, but rather had to do with making life easier for the NSA: Continue reading “Feds Begged Washington Post Reporter Not To Name Companies In PRISM, Because It Worried They’d Stop Cooperating”
Way back in 2005, we wrote a story about a ridiculous situation in which a group of students were suspended after filming an angry teacher go on a bit of a tirade, screaming at students and yanking the chair out from under one of them. Rather than discipline the teacher, the school suspended the students. This was way back before it was that common for everyone to have phones with cameras in them (back when people still called them “cameraphones” and mocked them) and before social media made it so easy to widely distribute such images and videos. You’d think, given nearly a decade of time to get used to the concept that we wouldn’t see a similar story pop up… but that’s not the case apparently.

WASHINGTON – The dean of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. claimed during his weekly address this past Sunday that it is a sin to oppose homosexuality.
The message was part of a weekend tribute to the homosexual youth at the National Cathedral, and a commemoration of the death of Matthew Shepherd, whose slaying sparked the passage of the federal “hate crimes” bill signed into law by Barack Obama in 2009. During his speech, Gary Hall blamed churches across the country for influencing American beliefs about homosexuality.

From major metropolises to small towns, America’s police forces increasingly resemble military units, thanks in part to billions of dollars in free equipment from the Pentagon.
The giveaways to date are valued at $4.2 billion, which the Department of Defense began distributing after Congress adopted legislation in 1997 authorizing the little-known 1033 Program. It appeared in fine print buried inside the National Defense Authorization Act (pdf). Continue reading “$4.2 Billion in Military Hardware Donations Fuels Militarization of U.S. Police Forces”

WEB Notes: As we noted yesterday in an article titled, “Obama cuts military aid to Egypt over continuing crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood,” Obama has blocked funding to Egypt. Not because Christians are being killed and their churches destroyed by Muslims. But due to the crack down on the Muslim Brotherhood.
(GateStone) – By not acting in the face of atrocity, the U.S. has unintentionally given the signal that it is retreating from the region. The implication of this retreat is that violence against Christians and other minorities can proceed with impunity. Continue reading “The Ethnic Cleansing of Christians in Egypt”
WEB Notes: We would like to note this is not about democrats or republicans. Both parties have been infuriated and neither party support the American people. What is happening in this country by both parties is the deliberate destruction of the United States. This will lead to the rise of the One World Beast Government of Satan.
(World Tribune) – Republicans are on the verge of again becoming the majority party. The conventional wisdom is that the GOP is taking the brunt of the public blame for the partial government shutdown. In the short term, that is true. In the long term, however, the Republicans are on the verge of a major triumph. They will lose the shutdown battle, but win the Obamacare war. Continue reading “ObamaCare: The Death of America”
