(Guardian UK ) On 29 May 2012, the New York Times published a remarkable 6,000-word story on its front page about what it termed President Obama’s “kill list”. It detailed the president’s personal role in deciding which individuals will end up being targeted for assassination by the CIA based on Obama’s secret, unchecked decree that they are “terrorists” and deserve to die.

Based on interviews with “three dozen of his current and former advisers”, the Times’ Jo Becker and Scott Shane provided extraordinary detail about Obama’s actions, including how he “por[es] over terrorist suspects’ biographies on what one official calls the macabre ‘baseball cards'” and how he “insist[s] on approving every new name on an expanding ‘kill list'”. At a weekly White House meeting dubbed “Terror Tuesdays”, Obama then decides who will die without a whiff of due process, transparency or oversight. It was this process that resulted in the death of US citizen Anwar Awlaki in Yemen, and then two weeks later, the killing of his 16-year-old American son, Abdulrahman, by drone. (more…)

Diffusing The Weapons of Misdirection

This is a follow-up to our previous outlining of intentional media manipulation during the last Presidential Debate – Specifically with CNN and the Obama Campaign.   Their coordination is beyond refute at this point.   Backstory Here and History Here.

Previously I shared:  Occam’s Razor –  Ladka is a NY Dem minded ideologue.   However, if he was “registered as a Democrat” the Alinskyites would have chosen a different front man.    Bottom Line Ladka aligns himself ideologically with Dear Leader.   Hence, his “handlers”, while known or unknown, will carefully guide him into the spotlight…..  

Water follows the path of least resistance.   So does ideology.   This Kerry Ladka guy is beyond a doubt a David Plouffe coordinated OFA strategic manuever.   Just watch…..

Many readers and commentators posted discussion about the Libyan questioner “Kerry Lakda” and the ideology behind the approach.   Initial research into Ladka is available HERE.

As the days advance, the cloud covering intentions are removed.   Today is no exception.

Why would random undecided voter, Mr. Kerry Ladka, of Long Island NY, be calling media outlets, media pundits, and requesting to be on their shows? (more…)

Socialism, or as Dear Leader says “Fair Share”, Always Fails Because Sooner or Later You Just Run Out Of Other People’s Money…..  

France is sliding into a grave economic crisis and risks a full-blown “hurricane” as investors flee rocketing tax rates, the country’s business federation has warned.

TEXAS – Brushing aside privacy concerns by parents and civil rights activists, a Texas school district has gone live with a controversial program requiring all students to wear a locator radio chip that will enable officials to track their every move – or face expulsion.

At the beginning of the school year students at John Jay High School and Anson Jones Middle School within the Northside Independent School District were told their old student ID badges were no longer valid. During registration they were required to obtain new badges containing a radio frequency identification tracker chip.

Students refusing the chips were reportedly threatened with suspension, fines, or being involuntary transferred. Unlike chips used by retailers to track inventory which activate when scanned by a reader, these chips contain batteries and actively broadcast a continuous signal. (more…)

U.S. President Barack Obama issued a new executive order last week to fight human trafficking, touting his administration’s handling of the issue.

“When a little boy is kidnapped, turned into a child soldier, forced to kill or be killed — that’s slavery,” Obama said in a speech at the Clinton Global Initiative. “It is barbaric, and it is evil, and it has no place in a civilized world. Now, as a nation, we’ve long rejected such cruelty.”

But for the third year in a row, Obama has waived almost all U.S. sanctions that would punish certain countries that use child soldiers, upsetting many in the human rights community. (more…)

(Reuters) – With both presidents facing tight re-election fights, Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez gave a surprise endorsement to Barack Obama on Sunday – and said the U.S. leader no doubt felt the same.

“I hope this doesn’t harm Obama, but if I was from the United States, I’d vote for Obama,” the socialist Chavez said of a man he first reached out to in 2009 but to whom he has since generally been insulting.

Chavez is running for a new six-year term against opposition challenger Henrique Capriles, while Obama seeks re-election in November against Republican candidate Mitt Romney. Venezuela’s election is next weekend. (more…)

I’m just dumbfounded by this.   WTF?  There are multiple layers of consideration for this latest Obama Campaign concept Their Own Version of the American Flag.   The Obama Flag.

Personally I just can’t fathom the layers upon layers of self-serving narcissism this image reflects upon a sitting President.   Either the campaign is oblivious to the optic, or they have an intentional desire to provoke a visceral response.   Can they actually be THAT disconnected?

This is more than just misplaced marketing imagery, it has to be.  A marketing campaign for a sitting U.S. President thinking it was in any way appropriate for the Stars and Stripes to be manipulated to reflect the ideology of “one man”; while simultaneously pontificating about the need for a President to be a representative of “all Americans”?

You shut up, stop talking…. ignore, run away,…. refuse.

WASHINGTON – The State Department told reporters Friday afternoon that it won’t answer any more questions about the Sept. 11 attack on the consulate in Benghazi that killed four Americans until the investigation into the incident is complete.

“…a movie did it… a movie did it, quick, hide…. a movie did it”…

“I’m going to frustrate all of you, infinitely, by telling you that now that we have an open FBI investigation on the death of these four Americans, we are not going to be in a position to talk at all about what the U.S. government may or may not be learning about how any of this this happened — not who they were, not how it happened, not what happened to Ambassador Stevens, not any of it — until the Justice Department is ready to talk about the investigation that’s its got,” State Department spokeswoman Victorian Nuland told reporters late Friday afternoon.

In 1989 the Chinese Tiananmen Square “student” popular uprising began.  Their quest was more freedom and a voice in their governance.   The Chinese Government eventually cracked down on the protests and thousands of Chinese citizens were killed by the Mongol contingency of the Chinese Army.

In the United States the response from the Chinese Government was ideologically reported by the Academic and Legacy Media leftists as a hard-right crackdown.   An insufferable conflagration of historical reference.   The push-back by the Government was a reaction from the left side of the political continuum, not the right.

The government in control of the individual, and extending their controlling influence, is the left, not the right.   Communism, Socialism and totalitarianism are political ideologies on the left side of the freedom continuum.

The hard-right is the push toward freedom and liberty, not more government.   Quite the opposite, the students and protestors were aiming for freedom, they were the “Right“, the government was on the “left” in opposition.

But the insufferable elitist media then, as today, refused to accept their ideological beliefs being displayed.  So they obfuscated history, they obfuscated reality, and they sold a flawed construct of “right-wing” government murdering its own people.

Fast forward to today, 2012, and what do we witness?   The exact same systemic narrative positioning of the radical left regarding the Occupy Wall Street group(s).  From the Madison Project: (more…)
