US politics and election

Don't knock conspiracy theories! GOSH! Of course it is interesting that not one president elected since Kennedy I believe, has not been an invitee to attend a Bilderbergers meeting. Of course the media in America never mentions these meetings, or the really "noninfluential" people from all corners of the world who attend. It's not like they are world policy makers or anything. Oh wait a minute, yeah, they are. If, as I suspect, you have never heard of these down home folks, look it up. At least you'll know something that occurs that the American media doesn't think is important enough for you to know. Last year Governor Perry of Texas attended. Maybe we'll know how well received he was by this "think tank".

All supposition. Still, interesting.

In April, New York Times and NBC had a poll that 81% people said they believed "things have pretty seriously gotten off on the wrong track," and 78% people said the nation is worse off than five years ago. Things get worse since. I wonder how that 80% vs 20% poll with 60 point difference could become a negative 5 point as a recent poll said that McCain led over Obama by 5 point.

I don't think the people of that 81% would vote Republican otherwise it means they wish a bad driver stay on wrong track and wish to go on with a worse live. It doesn't make sense. Then how could mainstream media got such a contradictory poll result?

Here is a strange poll result in August by Reuters/Zogby.

Quote, "McCain Takes Lead Over Obama
8/20/08
A new national poll (according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.) shows Republican John McCain pulling ahead of Democrat Barack Obama, with a 5-point lead. It's a sharp turnaround for McCain, who has generally trailed Obama in national polls.

This is a rare mistake the ruler of this country has made. It reveals that this country is a covert totalitarian. The insiders select president by rigged election and justify the result by fake poll. They could even cheat you with 65 point diffrence and turn black into white. It is easier to manipulate an election when to get the competition at an even condition.
And the 2008 election said that Obama won the president campaign by 53% vs 47%. Still far from that 81% "wrong track" poll done by New York Times/CBS News in March/April. The real number should be 80% vs 20%. Because the financial situation of US gets much worse in October and November from April. It only proves election is rigged by the intelligence. They could put a notorious Bush to a second president term in 2004. And turned a landslide victory of 2008 into a small margin 53% vs 47%.

Um... 80/20 in favor of who? Obama? Are you kidding?

This is the problem with conspiracy nutz. You see conspiracies where none exist. Did it ever occur to you that just maybe... just possibly... that conservatives and republicans who despise Obama, might also answer that the US is on the wrong track?

Hint: I personally answer a question exactly like that (I don't think it was the NBC poll), that I thought the US was on the wrong track. I said that because I saw people voting for Obama. I said that because of the bail-outs Obama supported. I answer the question thus, because I saw idiots voting for stupid wannabe messiah socialist scum bags who hangs with terrorist.

The very fact Obama even had a chance to run for president to me, is a clear indication we are on the wrong track. So yes, I most certainly think America is on the wrong track, and I voted for McCain. :D

If the election came out 80/20, I'd be agreeing with you that it's rigged. But 53/47 is exactly what I expected. Obama is not nearly as popular as you would like to claim. Nor is the 80/20 poll on America being off track remotely surprising. Obama being elected is exactly why it's off track!
 
Quote, "Let's hold up the $50B stimulus for folks on food stamps and welfare, but pass the $700B bailout so Paulson can get his personal $500M back from Goldman Sachs. Am I reading this right?"

A few weeks ago, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released a statement of administrative policy today recommending Bush veto a proposed second stimulus package. The $56.2 billion package, announced y More..esterday, would extend unemployment benefits for seven weeks, increase food stamp benefits by 10 percent, and provide $50 million for food banks, among other proposals. This afternoon, Senate conservatives successfully blocked the bill, as the motion to proceed won 52 votes, eight shy of the necessary 60.

In the press briefing today, just an hour before the Senate vote, Dana Perino said the White House opposed the measure, specifically citing its extension of unemployment and food stamp benefits as explanation:

PERINO: There’s some elements of the package that have been put forward by Democrats that we do not think would be stimulative to the economy, such as unemployment insurance. The food stamps, we believe we have met the need.

In fact, the tanking economy has left more Americans in need of food assistance than ever, with 28 million Americans expected to receive food stamps this year, “the highest level since the aid program began in the 1960s.” At the same time, the purchasing power of food stamps has declined dramatically.

Alongside unemployment benefits and food stamps, the OMB also objected to a provision increasing infrastructure spending, arguing, “Infrastructure spending is never an effective means to create rapid stimulus.” However, a Center for American Progress study found that two million jobs could be created within two years through robust investment in green energy and infrastructure.

Center for American Progress is not even remotely trust worthy on anything. As for the blowing more money on give outs, seems we are only $10.8 trillion in debt. I'd rather not be blowing more thanks.
 
Caroline's withdraw (1/22/09)

President Kennedy was assassinated by the Feds. To prevent his family members to rise in power to investigate the truth of murder, the other member of Kennedy's family either was murdered or intimidated when they dare to gain power politically.

So we saw Robert Kennedy was murdered before he could win a president campaign. And a scandal prevented Senator Ted Kennedy to join a president election. Jacklin died early in her 60s because she knew something about her husband's death. Jr. Kennedy died in a misterious air plane accident.

Now Kennedy's daughter was intimidated when she tried to test that forbidden area. On 1/20, Ted Kennedy was sent to hospital after he had a seisure in Obama's Inauguration Ceremony. The warning was the result of an high tech. EM wave weapon. One day later, we saw the news:

A person who worked closely with Caroline Kennedy says her decision to abruptly withdraw her bid for New York's Senate seat was unrelated to the poor health of her uncle, Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy.

Is that particular description - "unrelated" ridiculous?

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert says he had told the US president not to vote in favor of the recent United Nations resolution on Gaza.

"I told him (George W. Bush) the United States could not vote in favor. It cannot vote in favor of such a resolution. He immediately called the secretary of state and told her not to vote in favor," said Olmert on Monday.

This article does an intelligent job of explaining how Republicans have been led down a path of intellectual bankruptsy and empowered with it for the last thirty years.

You posted a link that had a video game screen capture as the lead in? I stopped reading after it mentioned Reagan as being a "Cowboy" president... because there was nothing "cowboy"ish about Reagan.

I support Israel. Thanks for you time.
 
Pentagon's psychological war on public. It has 27,000 people work to influence your opinion.

27,000 Work in Pentagon PR and Recruiting
By Noah Shachtman Email February 05, 2009

Forget the drone stuff. Here is your eye-popping statistic of the day: "This year, the Pentagon will employ 27,000 people just for recruitment, advertising and public relations - almost as many as the total 30,000-person work force in the State Department."

That's from an Associated Press investigation, "which found that over the past five years, the money the military spends on winning hearts and minds at home and abroad has grown by 63 percent, to at least $4.7 billion this year."

Fat cat profit from Iraq war

When they attacked Daschel on his tax problem, GOP never talked a bit of how much money they embezzled from Iraq. That may be the reason why GOP is so fond of "war on terror". Because they always profit from a conflict, from fat budget of defense to profitable contract.

Ordinary people pay tax. Selected politicians vote for war. Fat cats make profit. That's US politics.

Senior US soldiers investigated over missing Iraq reconstruction billions
By Patrick Cockburn in Sulaimaniyah, Northern Iraq

In what could turn out to be the greatest fraud in US history, American authorities have started to investigate the alleged role of senior military officers in the misuse of $125bn (£88bn) in a US -directed effort to reconstruct Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein.
The exact sum missing may never be clear, but a report by the US Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR) suggests it may exceed $50bn, making it an even bigger theft than Bernard Madoff's notorious Ponzi scheme.

"I believe the real looting of Iraq after the invasion was by US officials and contractors, and not by people from the slums of Baghdad," said one US businessman active in Iraq since 2003. ....

The end of the Bush administration which launched the war may give fresh impetus to investigations into frauds in which tens of billions of dollars were spent on reconstruction with little being built that could be used. In the early days of the occupation, well-connected Republicans were awarded jobs in Iraq, regardless of experience. A 24-year-old from a Republican family was put in charge of the Baghdad stock exchange which had to close down because he allegedly forgot to renew the lease on its building......

Often sums paid out in cash were never recorded. In one case, an American soldier put in charge of reviving Iraqi boxing gambled away all the money but he could not be prosecuted because, although the money was certainly gone, nobody had recorded if it was $20,000 or $60,000.

How media to cheat public

Though media makes him a popular figure, he is actually not a welcome man. Or he doesn't represent the grass root people. His story is only a soap opera conducted by GOP for their campaign. He became popular because media is controlled by Republican and they need to show that Republican Party supported by grass root people. But all that is only a propaganda. A book signing tells it all. After all Republican Party is for the interest of rich people, they are minor in US. They could win the election because they control the media and the intelligence. They selected politicians such like Bush by rigged election (becuase they control intelligence) and justify the result by fake poll. (they control media).

Quote, "Soros funds infiltration of 9/11 truth, election protection, and independent journalism

By Wayne Madsen
Online Journal Contributing Writer


Feb 20, 2009, 00:2


(WMR) -- WMR has learned from well-placed sources that international hedge fund mogul and financier of progressive causes George Soros has been, for a number of years, infiltrating 9/11 truth organizations, groups advocating election reform, and so-called independent journalism enterprises in order to hijack agendas and, eventually, cause the groups to collapse from within or be absorbed into larger organizations servile to Soros and his agenda.

By far, the largest group Soros and his allies has infiltrated and taken over is the Democratic Party of the United States. It now totally adheres to a corporatist line and has purged from its leadership Dr. Howard Dean and replaced him with Virginia Governor Tim Kaine, a Democratic Leadership Council adherent. The Soros faction and its allies has also seen to it that Bill Richardson, Caroline Kennedy, and others who represent the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party have been shut out of the Obama administration.

In many ways, Soros operation is strikingly similar to the FBIs former Counter-Intelligence Program, also known as COINTELPRO. There is also ample evidence that Soros program is linked to Israeli intelligence operations in the United States and that some presidential campaigns in 2008 were infiltrated by the joint operation, including those of Democratic candidate and former Senator Mike Gravel, and Republican candidate Ron Paul.

Soros operations, according to our sources, involve his Open Society Institute, as well as Soros Fund Management LLC, in which his son, Jonathan Soros, plays a leading role.

For Soros, his political operations in America are much the same as they are in places like Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, Romania, and other countries: divide, confuse the political sides, and conquer.

The modus operandi is that Soros operatives either help establish progressive organizations or join them after they are established with a new infusion of a modest to substantial funding. The agenda of the organization is then altered to make it look either like a far-out conspiracy association or the infiltrators of the organization create internecine battles between factions or tamp down its fervor. In some cases, the organizations ultimately cease to exist or are combined with other Soros-controlled or influenced organizations.

In the case of alternative journalism operations, Soros operatives launch attacks, some of them highly personal, against bona fide independent journalists and question their sources and investigations. WMR has been a primary target for such operations, according to sources familiar with Soros tactics.

Soros agents of disinformation and influence have moved in to manage the stories about jailed Alabama Democratic Governor Don Siegelman, the 2004 vote fraud in Ohio, the Turkish and Israeli intelligence penetration of the highest echelons of the U.S. government, the presence of Israeli spies among the accused 9/11 hijackers in the months prior to the terrorist attacks in 2001, and Russian-Israeli Kosher Nostra criminal activity from London to Kyiv and New York to Moscow.

Overall, Soros operations are primarily focused on controlling the left through the use of censors and online gatekeepers in the media operations he funds. Recipients of Soros money are found running web sites, some of them well known; hosting TV and radio programs; and writing regularly for major periodicals.

A prison country

Study: 7.3 million in U.S. prison system in '07

(CNN) -- A record number of Americans served time in corrections systems across the country in 2007, according to a report released Monday by the Pew Center on the States.
The U.S. correctional population -- those in jail, prison, on probation or on parole -- totaled 7.3 million, or 1 in every 31 adults.

The Pew Center on the States compiled the information from Justice Department and Census Bureau statistics.

America's prison <http://topics.edition.cnn.com/topics/prisons> population has skyrocketed over the past quarter century. In 1982, 1 in 77 adults were in the correctional system in one form or another, totaling 2.2 million people.

The United States has 5 percent of the world's population, but 25 percent of the world's prison inmates, the center said.
