Observers of the current US election season have noted the prominent role of Rupert Murdoch’s reactionary Fox News Channel, which currently employs GOP and “Tea Party” partisans Sarah Palin, Glen Beck, Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Sean Hannity, and others. Some have alleged that a television network carrying so many potential political candidates and propagandists on its payroll is unprecedented. But there is a precedent for large-scale Fox intervention into a political campaign.

We have to stop thinking of the organized effort to control society as a dark conspiracy and learn to see its very existence as a sign of hope. If a small group of evil men can figure-out a way to take control of human fate, then other groups of intelligent men and women with the best intentions should be just as capable of learning how to break their control.
Hope is the commodity that we are most in need of at this time. If we look at the plot to control mankind’s destiny through the lens of “conspiracy,” we feel compelled to surrender to the broken spirit of hopelessness, thinking that our situation is above human resolution. This is the weakness of spirit that compels many to look for outside intervention from a divine or extraterrestrial source, or else from imaginary unions of upright moral men. We will find that no one else will save us. It is a task which we must accomplish for ourselves.
The world is in the unbelievable mess it is in not by accident, but because of an ancient plan. All the money and power in the world cant’ make anything better by themselves, simply because the people with all the power, who control nearly all the money, won’t let things get better until they get what they want. What they want isn’t merely the Asian oil and gas resources; what they want is the entire world.

Straightaway, Obama's promised "change" and "yes we can" became hard line foreign and domestic extremism, betraying his loyal constituency and any hope for kinder, gentler policies. His populist hypocrisy now exposed, voters are losing faith, but most remain mindless about the harm he commits daily, much of it touching them directly.

It seems, therefore, that millions of foreclosures that have occurred in the past two years may be invalid. Investors who were part of the $8,000 tax credit program may not have valid mortgages and may not legally have the right to live in their home. Title insurance companies have stopped accepting mortgage titles from GMAC and other financial firms implicated in this situation. Numerian

Like most others in Congress, Senator Patrick Leahy is no progressive. He voted to fund imperial wars, regressive Obamacare, Wall Street-friendly financial reform, and other pro-business measures, including agribusiness-empowering bills, harming small farmers and consumers.
Now he's at it again. On September 20, he introduced S. 3804: Combating Online Infringement and Counterfeits Act (COICA), "A bill to combat online infringement, and for other purposes." Referred to committee, it awaits further action. In fact, it needs a dagger thrust in its heart to kill it.

Numerous previous articles documented two decades of US war crimes in Iraq, the latest titled, "One of History's Greatest Crimes," accessed through the following link: sjlendman.blogspot.com
On August 31, declaring an "end to the combat mission in Iraq," Obama disgracefully said: "Through this remarkable chapter in the history of the United Stated and Iraq, we have met our responsibility," infamously displaying his culpability as a war criminal, matching the worst America ever produced. Daily he proves it in Iraq, Afghanistan, and by reckless global marauding.

Obama started his Mideast involvement by demanding that Israel stop building settlements. The settlements are the land the government of Israel stealing from Palestine to construct housing project for Jews only. Streets only for Jews, schools only for Jews, and so forth. These settlements are constructed on hilly areas to put the Palestinian villages under its mercy. These settlements have destroyed the ecological system in Palestine because they are made without any consideration to the ecological system; their only consideration is the interest of Jews and only Jews even if Palestinians go to hell.

One thing is for certain, anything that comes out of Washington DC regardless of political alignment or the person spewing it, or even if it’s from political pundits within the MSM all of it contains numbers.
There is a fascination for numbers, and there are numbers attached to almost everything these days. I invite you to pick up any recent news story from any news source you prefer and read the top three political stories and I will almost bet the farm there is mention of numbers in the article somewhere.
Whether it’s Obama’s approval ratings which contain low numbers or the national deficit which contains too many numbers there are numbers all over DC. Now that election time is again upon us we will also be seeing how much the black tie political fund-raising dinners cost per plate which get you your 1 minute photo op with your favorite political. Then there will be the numbers in terms of how much each candidate has spent on their campaign and how much it will cost to investigate any wrong doing within that same campaign once the final votes are counted in terms of numbers. Then once in office all of these newly elected politicians will also spend their time worrying about their own approval numbers.
