SOTU - STFU

Obama's state of the union address started at exactly 9:11 pm EST with the words "thank you."

 The U.S."Sputnik moment" all over again.  Another take on  "Yes We Can."

We were sitting around waiting on the big annual pornographic political show and I asked  "what time do you think the speech will start."  Someone said  "about 9:15."  I said  "no, it will start at 9:11."  When it did I was asked how I knew that and why they might have timed it that way. I said  "it's just a part of how they play the game."

That's crazy talk or just a coincidence you may say.  Maybe  ... but I'm not so sure. 


You can read the transcript of the entire speech here,  but as always, nothing Obama says is worth the type on a teleprompter when there's the big lie of al Qaeda and 9/11 that has to be repeated over and over again. It's what the speechwriters will never leave out.
"Of course as we speak, al Qaeda and their affiliates continue to plan attacks against us."

"Our purpose is clear, by preventing the Taliban from reestablishing a stranglehold over the Afghan people, we will deny al Qaeda the safe haven that served as a launching pad for 9/11."

Basically the SOTU speech was Obama telling the American people ... STFU, we're going to do as we please and you're going to bend over and take it. 

I think we're told that each and every year and what do we do about it?  In essence ... nothing.

Indians Defy Obama, Globalism, Zionism and War


Some are also not in the dark about David Headley and the CIA agenda of terror against them.



















Americans should be in the streets doing the same thing when Obama returns.

Barry and a Beatle


Last night PBS finally got around to airing the "really big shew" of Paul McCartney receiving the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song at the White House which took place on June 2.

'Sir' Paul and his band and guests played a few tunes to remind the crowd what the award was all about and Paul gushed over Barry and Michelle throughout the love fest. It seemed like Paul thinks Barry is the best thing to happen to America since, uh, Stevie Wonder, who was also there.

A few of the other guests were surprising. Elvis Costello, fresh on the heels of canceling his concert in Israel, calling it an act of  'conscience'  in protest over the treatment of the Palestinians was there. Apparently his conscience didn't kick into gear over playing for drone lover, surge enabler and war puppet Barry. And Jack White was there too ... humm.

A little editing of the show was ordered by the White House. Reportedly Paul said near the end  "After the last eight years, it's good to have a president that knows what a library is."  Too bad Barry didn't spend more time at the library and check out the constitution.


The missing moment ...

I kept waiting. It didn't happen.

On his current tour, Paul has been playing a tribute to his assassinated partner John Lennon, "Give Peace A Chance." You might think the peace prize prez would want to continue the charade and sing along with that one. The grand finale to give the world 'hope.'

But na na na na na na na. Hey Jude got the finale honor with everyone joining in on stage


Just one question ... WTF was Seinfeld doing there?

The oil spill is not the last crisis America will face. "Pray Baby Pray"

Giving his obligatory Gulf disaster speech but lacking real specifics on what to do, Mr. Obama transforms into Pastor Barry and tells us to put our faith in the Lord 'cause there's more to come and this leak "has tested the limits of human technology."



"The blessing is not that God has promised to remove all obstacles and dangers.  The blessing is that He is with us always," a blessing that's granted "…even in the midst of the storm." 

The oil spill is not the last crisis America will face.

This nation has known hard times before and we will surely know them again.  What sees us through – what has always seen us through – is our strength, our resilience, and our unyielding faith that something better awaits us if we summon the courage to reach for it.  Tonight, we pray for that courage.  We pray for the people of the Gulf.  And we pray that a hand may guide us through the storm towards a brighter day.  Thank you, God Bless You, and may God Bless the United States of America."


As with all teevee preachers, there's also the cost of salvation. Only this time it goes far beyond tithing and it's not voluntary .....

State of the Union Hangover







Barack Obama greets Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner before the SOTU address and whispers "Let me show you how to lie to Congress and the American public. Watch closely and learn."




I still have a headache from the speech and didn't drink a drop.

One point I caught was where Obama deviated from the prepared speech and added his message to Israel.
"Now, these diplomatic efforts have also strengthened our hand in dealing with those nations that insist on violating international agreements in pursuit of nuclear weapons. That's why North Korea now faces increased isolation, and stronger sanctions -- sanctions that are being vigorously enforced. That's why the international community is more united, and the Islamic Republic of Iran is more isolated. And as Iran's leaders continue to ignore their obligations, there should be no doubt: They, too, will face growing consequences. That is a promise."
"That is a promise" was either ad libbed.or added after the prepared for delivery transcript was released.  

I'm sure Israel and AIPAC was pleased with that promise. I only wonder how far that 'promise' will go in the coming year.

Obama on 60 Minutes: "I Did Not Run For Office To Be Helping Out A Bunch Of Fat Cat Bankers On Wall Street"




But he sure took a lot of money from them for his campaign. Almost a million from Goldman Sachs alone.

His administration's economic team is a Who's Who of Wall Street Insiders.

A dog tends not to bite the hand that feeds him.









Video of Obama's 'bad banker' performance on 60 Minutes.


Mr. Obama is scheduled on Monday morning {Dec. 14} to meet with bankers to exchange ideas on ways to increase lending; to review the financial-industry regulatory bill moving through Congress; and to discuss bankers' compensation, the White House and industry representatives said.

Mr. Obama will meet with some of the country's top bankers, including Goldman Sachs Group Inc.'s Lloyd Blankfein, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.'s Jamie Dimon, and Bank of America Corp.'s Ken Lewis. {more}


I wonder if they will discuss the latest scheme/scam of 'cap and trade.' I can see the bankers drooling/foaming at the mouth over the prospect of stealing a few more trillion dollars. They might even talk a little about a new carbon based currency for the world with Wall Street leading the way.

But this latest Wall Street/Federal Reserve endeavor wouldn't be helping the 'fat cats.' It would all be to 'save the planet.' Obama wouldn't lie about something as serious as that ... would he?

Telling it straight up




No, not Obama, but a few folks who are tired of the deadly charade.



Illustration: Ramachandra Babu/Gulf News



Dear Progressives; You're Right, It's Not "Obama's War" ... it's Yours.

Well, now the Party is rolling on.

It’s rolling over Afghanistan and soon it will be rolling over Pakistan and possibly even Iran and Venezuela. The festive street-party of an election night celebration has faded away leaving nothing but a hangover and the gut-wrenching realization that your wallet is missing (along with the house, the 401k, most of the constitution, and of course… your job).

Guess what people, you voted for the puppet the fascist regime wanted you to vote for; you did exactly what they expected you to do. Obama was the only one capable of providing cover for their imperialist agenda, their bloody and illegal creation of a ”New Middle East”. Even Clinton couldn’t have done that, much less McCain or Romney or Thompson.

At a time when the vast majority of the people of this nation were determined to change course, to repudiate the prior 8 years of illegality, immorality, and injustice, you “progressives” accomplished the impossible, you allowed it to continue; you elected it. This time around, the only difference is, the imperialists didn’t have to steal a presidential election in order to install their moral compass lacking puppet president, you elected him. You gladly gave Obama the office and in so doing, you gave them a clear mandate to continue one of the most inhuman foreign policy programs the world has ever seen.

The only difference between this administration and the previous one, is that even after being warned, you “progressives” and “least worst” advocates actually worked, cried, lied, justified, petitioned, marched, donated, and prayed to put it in place.

The Bush administration stole two elections to gain the power that they used like a hammer both overseas and here at home… you guys just handed it over to Obama, even AFTER knowing what we all know now.

So this is NOT Bush’s war… and it’s NOT Obama’s war… it’s YOUR war. You did this.

Now what are you going to do to fix it and exactly how long are you going to continue lying to yourselves before you do? The rest of the world has a right to know. {more - Scott Creighton}


Imperial Democrats Line Up For War

In a scene replicated all over the country, a small, dispirited crowd protested on Boston Common following Obama’s West Point declaration of more war on the unfortunate people of Afghanistan and Pakistan. Obama intends to out-Bush Bush on Af-Pak, which has finally thrown some cold water on his supporters.

The large printed placards ordered up for the demo called for an end to the war on Af-Pak, but only three scraggily handmade signs mentioned Obama. The speeches ordained by the organizers also made scant mention of Obama, with two exceptions, one from Vets Against the War and another from Military Families Speak Out. When one guy took advantage of an open mike, not readily yielded to him, to criticize both Obama and the antiwar leadership of United for Peace and Justice, “Progressive” Democrats of America, and their bedfellows, there was a quiet over the crowd. It was the only speech without at least token applause. One could only wonder where this “movement” was headed next.

So long as the war machine does not need the votes of congressmen with strong antiwar constituencies, these representatives are free to cast a vote to mollify their voters. But when the chips are down and every vote is needed, the charade is called to a halt and these counterfeit progressives cast their votes as instructed by Pelosi or whatever gauleiter happens to be in charge at the moment. Thus the empire rules by demanding loyalty to one of the two War Parties over the will of antiwar constituents.

As the late Eugene McCarthy pointed out in 1968 in the snows of New Hampshire, drawing on the words of Daniel Webster, wars of empire continue because the people’s “representatives” put loyalty to party over loyalty to the people and to principle. Thus the Vietnam War ground on, and thus does the U.S. empire’s deadly game in Central Asia continue. {more - John Walsh via Atheo News}

All the different ways to kill and move people around the globe, surely this is according to some plan

1. kill them overtly: bomb attacks, non-stop war in Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan. goals: kill and terrorize, pollute the land, make the people leave

2. force people around the globe via immigration: asylum seekers, workers, globalization

3. destroy their culture with consumerism

4. cull through bio-engineering {more - A. Peasant}


When Blood is Their Argument: An Empire on Fire
You cannot achieve such goals, even in the slightest degree, with the foreign policies and military actions of the Bush and Obama administrations. You cannot invade countries, kills thousands upon thousands of innocent people, destroy societies, unleash and foment civil war, impose corrupt, violent, repressive regimes on shattered, suffering people and expect that this will somehow build "a better future" for your children and grandchildren -- much less for the children and grandchildren that you are murdering, brutalizing and traumatizing.

As we said here the other day, only an idiot could actually believe such things. And while our leaders may be moral nullities, they are not idiots. Therefore it is clear beyond all doubt and argument that the stated purposes for the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan are deliberate, knowing, well-considered lies. Thus all the earnest debates and commentaries on the relative efficacy of various policies aimed at achieving these completely specious goals are pointless. In the end, such diversionary "debates" only serve the causes of war, domination, profiteering and elite power that are, in the end, the only true goals of these campaigns. {more - Chris Floyd}

The Devil and Mr. Obama

Soc-cover

Well lookee here! An invite from my limey comrades to recap Barack Obama's first year in office. Well comrades, I can do this thing two ways. I can simply state that the great mocha hope turned out to be a Trojan horse for Wall Street and the Pentagon. Or I can lay in an all-night stock of tequila, limes and reefer and puke up the entire miserable tale like some 5,000 word tequila purged Congolese stomach worm. I have chosen to do the latter.

As you may know, Obama's public approval ratings are taking a beating. Millions of his former cult members have awakened with a splitting hangover to find their pockets turned inside out and eviction notices on the doors of their 4,000 square foot subprime mortgaged cardboard fuck boxes. Many who voted for Obama out of disgust for the Bush regime are now listening to the Republicans again on their car radios as they drive around looking for a suitable place to hide their vehicles from the repo man. Don't construe this as support for the GOP. It's just the standard ping ponging of disappointment and disgust that comes after the honeymoon is over with any administration. Most Americans' party affiliations are the same as they were when Bush was elected. After all, Obama did not get elected on a landslide by any means; he got 51% of the vote.

Right now his approval ratings are in the 40th percentile and would be headed for the basement of the league were it not for the residual effect of the Kool-Aid love fest a year ago. However, millions of American liberals remain faithful, and believe Obama will arise from the dead in the third year and ascend to glory. You will find them at Huffington Post.

Americans may be starting to get the big picture about politics, money and corporate power. But I doubt it. Given that most still believe the war on terrorism is real, and that terrorists always just happen to be found near gas and oil deposits, there is plenty of room left to blow more smoke up their asses. Especially considering how we are conditioned to go into blind fits of patriotism at the sight of the flag, an eagle, or the mention of "our heroes," even if the heroes happen to be killing and maiming Muslim babies at the moment. Patriotism is a cataract that blinds us to all national discrepancies. {more - Joe Bageant}

Obama Treason Charges Advance In Tennessee Grand Jury

I haven't gotten into the Obama 'birther' issue because I never thought that it would ever go anywhere, and still don't, but this story from Monroe County Tennessee by way of Canada is hard to pass up.

OK, I'll admit it's a sideshow and a good opportunity for the 'liberal' alternative media to make fun of southerners, but it still doesn't mean that Obama and crew are not guilty of treason. There are plenty of reasons to indict him no matter where he was born. Along with a great number of present and previous government criminals.



The Village Voice must have a good budget to come to Tennessee to cover the story. They got this picture of the 'hillbilly jury.' They could have just used a file photo since this is how we all look down here in the sticks.



Formal treason charges filed against Barrack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, reach Monroe County Tennessee Grand Jury - Tuesday December 1, 2009

By JB Williams - Canada Free Press

On June 10, 2009 I wrote about formal treason charges filed against Barack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, in - Is Obama Guilty of Treason? I followed that column up with - Why Commander Fitzpatrick Is NOT Guilty of Mutiny! on June 13. Since then, numerous others have filed similar treason charges against Obama/Soetoro with little or no fanfare…

If Obama is indeed guilty of treason - then we have a growing list of folks who are also committing treason. Namely, every member of law enforcement and the justice system who have taken an oath to uphold and defend the US Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic - along with every individual in Washington DC and beyond who has chosen to look the other way while denying American citizens their day in court - claiming that no citizen has the “legal standing” to ask who in the hell Barack Hussein Obama really is…

After visits from the Secret Service and months of rejection by the courts, Commander Walter Fitzpatrick may get his day in court.

On Tuesday December 1st 2009, Retired Navy Commander Walter Fitzpatrick III will present the evidence behind his treason complaint against Obama/Soetoro to all thirteen members of a Tennessee Grand Jury in Monroe County Tennessee.

The road to justice has been bumpy, to say the least. Commander Fitzpatrick has been ridiculed, blocked in court house halls, threatened, accused of mutiny and labeled a “crackpot” by Obama supporters who see no need for a standard background check for the most powerful office in the world.

Fitzpatrick had to go so far as to file criminal obstruction charges against Grand Jury Foreman Pettway before he would gain access to the court. Despite it all, Commander Fitzpatrick forged ahead and on December 1st, his complaint will be heard by his local Monroe County Tennessee Grand Jury.

Now, this places the Tennessee Grand Jury squarely in the middle of the biggest Constitutional Crisis in U.S. history. Fitzpatrick will be under oath before the Grand Jury on Tuesday. If the Grand Jury has any doubts about Fitzpatrick’s testimony, they must arrest him for perjury on the spot. If they don’t arrest him for perjury, they are accepting his testimony as true and accurate…

If Article II—Section I—Clause V of the U.S. Constitution means nothing—then no part of the Constitution means anything today. On the other hand, if the Monroe County Tennessee Grand Jury follows its oath to uphold, protect and preserve the Constitution and apply the law equally to all, then the charge of treason must be allowed its day in court.

The Monroe County Grand Jury appears ready to act on its oath and authority. But if they don’t, they could become thirteen new members of a long list of folks equally guilty of treason, for turning their heads the other way and denying the American people access to the courts in what might be the greatest case in U.S. political history.

Thirteen members of the Monroe County Grand Jury hold the future of Constitutional Law in their hands. Come Tuesday, they will have an opportunity to keep their oath to the American people - the citizens of Monroe County and state of Tennessee. Of course, they will also have an opportunity to do what several civil and criminal court judges have already done on the matter. They can turn their heads and deny citizens their right to be heard…

Yet ten months after inauguration, Obama’s entire past remains a mystery under lock and key. Obama has spent almost $2 million in legal fees to keep his life Top Secret, not counting millions in tax-payer funded road blocks thrown up by Obama’s Justice Department, which has sent numerous federal attorneys into court after court to file dismissal requests on the basis of “standing” - with great success. They don’t want the courts to ever decide Obama’s Constitutional eligibility on “merit,” because if discovery ever goes forward and Obama’s files are opened up, Obama is finished and so is his Marxist Global Agenda!

Make no mistake… The courts have clearly ruled that NO AMERICAN CITIZEN has the “proper standing” to ask even the most fundamental questions about Barack Hussein Obama (aka Barry Soetoro). The American press has not only ignored these facts, but mocked anyone willing to ask the right questions - of the right people - in the right way.

Tuesday, the Monroe County Grand Jury will get an opportunity to make history and reverse the modern trend of denying citizens their day in court. The people have a right to know who and what Obama really is. Let’s see if the Monroe County Grand Jury has the backbone to force Obama to answer that question.

When an unconstitutional resident of the White House rushes a laundry list of unconstitutional policies through, including the use of the Military against U.S. citizens—against the demands of the American citizens, it’s time to ask some very serious questions and the American people deserve no less than honest answers.

The Monroe County Grand Jury will hear these and other charges Tuesday December 1st. God help this nation if they lack the courage to take a stand with the citizenry of this great nation. The future of American justice hangs in the balance! The people deserve much more than a simple birth certificate. They deserve a legitimate government - limited to its constitutional authority - and they deserve a justice system willing to uphold those foundational principles and values. {more}


Mother Jones, the old bastion of the alternative media who also backed the 9/11 commission findings, doesn't think much of questioning Obama's place of birth and the charges of treason.
Tue. December 1, 2009
Tea-party style activism has taken some nutty turns before—the Hitler references, the Holocaust pictures. But Walter Fitzpatrick III may be about to push anti-Obama activism to new heights. On Tuesday, he plans to walk into the Monroe County courthouse in tiny Madisonville, Tennessee, and attempt to convince a local grand jury to indict the president on treason and fraud charges.

Fitzpatrick is one of those alternate-reality Americans who believe that Barack Obama is actually one Barry Soetoro, a man who is not an American citizen and thus ineligible to serve as president. Fitzpatrick claims that since March, he has been trying to get federal prosecutors in Tennessee to bring treason charges against the president. All that effort earned him, however, was a visit from the Secret Service.

But then Fitzpatrick evidently discovered that Monroe County has rather liberal rules about grand juries. In most places, only a local prosecutor can present evidence to a grand jury and request an indictment. In Monroe County, any private citizen can show up with a petition and seek an indictment. The most common initiators of such proceedings are usually victims of robberies or assaults, however, not activists trying to unseat the president.

Fitzpatrick is hardly the first to attempt legal proceedings against Obama, but his scheme is unique in that it involves criminal allegations.

Fitzpatrick is trying to appeal directly to the people through a grand jury comprised of average citizens who volunteer their time. Still, unless the jurors of Monroe County are truly rabid Obama haters, it seems unlikely that they will be persuaded—or that they even have the power to indict the president in the first place. Treason, after all, is a federal crime, not a county-level offense. When I asked a court employee whether the Monroe County grand jury has jurisdiction to indict a sitting president, she seemed rather baffled: "I wouldn’t think so. That would not go before a local court." She observed that the grand jury won’t issue any decision on the case until December 7. But for any real criminal charges to go forward, the local district attorney would have to agree to take up the case, a move that any sane prosecutor would be reluctant to make. {more}

The 'birther' angle puts us into a gray area. Our president promised transparency and it would take little effort to once and for all put the issue to rest if there is nothing to hide.

But by leaving the doubt and spending a lot of money to repress efforts to just get the facts could be a means to a distraction and a way to lump 'birthers' in with all sorts of 'conspiracy' theories/facts and demonize the ones who speak out about them. Divide us.

I can hear Rahm saying "yeah, they got us, it could be a crisis but let's don't waste the opportunity."

I'm going to ask the question ... are any of these people who file these 'birther' civil lawsuits and now attempt to get a grand jury indictment being paid to do so? By the ones who they are going against? Controlled opposition is always a variable.

Obama Treason Charges Advance In Tennessee Grand Jury

I haven't gotten into the Obama 'birther' issue because I never thought that it would ever go anywhere, and still don't, but this story from Monroe County Tennessee by way of Canada is hard to pass up.

OK, I'll admit it's a sideshow and a good opportunity for the 'liberal' alternative media to make fun of southerners, but it still doesn't mean that Obama and crew are not guilty of treason. There are plenty of reasons to indict him no matter where he was born. Along with a great number of present and previous government criminals.
