Fact-checking organization Politifact has named their “Lie of the Year,” and it’s bad news for the White House and the Affordable Care Act.
President Barack Obama’s often-repeated assertion that “If you like your health care plan, you can keep it,” won the ignominious honor for 2013, the group announced.
In a blog post, Politifact– which is affiliated with the Tampa Bay Times – said Obama’s promise was “impossible to keep” and has resulted in a “real hit to his credibility.” Continue reading “Obama health care promise named ‘Lie of the Year’”
U.S. lawmakers have approved boosting funding for Israel’s missile defense program by $173 million in fiscal 2014 as the Jewish state’s military establishment draws up a new defense doctrine to protect cities from Hezbollah’s growing missile arsenal.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Israeli military intelligence now believes that the Iranian-backed Lebanese movement now possesses around 5,000 long-range missiles that can reach Tel Aviv, the country’s largest conurbation, and carry warheads packing between 1,300 pounds and one ton of explosives.

A cross atop Mount Soledad in California is an unconstitutional religious display on government land and must come down, a federal judge in San Diego ruled late Thursday.
U.S. District Judge Larry Burns ordered the cross, which honors veterans, must be removed within 90 days — a decision that could result in the case being sent back to the U.S. Supreme Court. Burns immediately stayed his order pending an expected appeal. Continue reading “Federal Judge: Mt. Soledad Cross Must Come Down”

We know that Washington DC is the heart of America’s government. I tend to think of it as the belly of the beast and I happen to be here today and tomorrow.
DC is an enigma to many because on the surface, there are so many things that appear to support truth and specifically, the Constitution. Yet, underneath, it’s clear to those who can see that this is the furthest thing from reality.

Today [December 10] is International Human Rights Day. So here in the United States, it’s worth revisiting a debate that nearly every other developed nation has already sorted out: Is it a human right NOT to be legally murdered by your own government?
The United Nations thinks so. In February, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said, “Capital punishment is inconsistent with the mission of the United Nations to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights and the dignity and worth of the human person.” Continue reading “The US executes more people every year than Yemen, Sudan and Afghanistan.”

The Governors of the Great States of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia still have under their Command-and-Control the State Defense Forces to go against U.S. Federal forces should the need arise.

If every Christian in the united States of America prayed this prayer nightly,choruses in Heaven would sing of our praises and of our wish. . . . and our Father would provide.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to you today with praises. You are my God, and the God. The Maker of heavens and earth, all living creatures, all growing things. Father, You created the world from nothing but a thought, a word, a wish. You are imperially powerful, without a fault, unfathomably unstoppable, and all knowing.

It appears EAA is moving away from their Turkish manufacturer SAR ARMs
in favor of their Italian line of “Witness” models.
Both are CZ 75 knock offs. The one at the link has nothing but high remarks
everywhere I’ve researched it online other than a few personal quirks.
I have one on order now. Mine was actually 10 bucks more when I ordered it Sunday. Continue reading “9mm recommendation at a deal”
While TPP negotiators had hoped to finish off the negotiations in Singapore over the past few days, it appears that did not happen, though they claim to have made substantial progress and will meet again next month. From the reports of people there, the negotiators made sure that public interest groups were excluded from even the press briefing about the negotiations, which should tell you all you need to know about what the negotiators think of the public. But, in case you weren’t sure, the USTR, Michael Froman, has finally explained why the TPP negotiating positions must be kept secret. Apparently, all of us in the public, are too fucking stupid to understand the important work that he’s doing, and we might “misunderstand” it. Therefore, we peons must be kept in the dark, while important people like himself negotiate on our behalf. According to Jamie Love: Continue reading “USTR Says TPP Must Be Kept Secret, Because The Public Is Too Stupid To Understand It”
