Democrats – Lying Liars that Lie over Sequestration
By Doc Vega In a statement to the press recently Maxine Waters, Democrat of California, said that 170 million persons would lose their jobs over the sequester cuts. In reality, there aren’t that many jobs in the US. Obviously, she needed to adjust her figures. The illusion created by your President A President who would rather play politics than lead the people and alleviate their suffering. Through-out the United States currently we find that federal employees are not actually being laid off at all. Furlough, as stated by the federal spokesman is actually a 30 day notice of a partial reduction in hours employed in the course of a week, perhaps one day out of a five day work week. This is not the catastrophic loss of government jobs and services forecast by the Obama [...]

Holder: Obama could Kill Americans on U.S. Soil
Yes, America, Obama doesn't torture, but he sure could kill you. President Barack Obama has the legal authority to unleash deadly force—such as drone strikes—against Americans on U.S. soil without first putting them on trial, Attorney General Eric Holder wrote in a letter released Tuesday. But Holder, writing to Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, underlined that Obama “has no intention” of targeting his fellow citizens with unmanned aerial vehicles and would do so only if facing “an extraordinary circumstance.” Paul had asked the Obama administration on Feb. 20 whether the president "has the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil and without trial." On Tuesday, he denounced Holder's response as “frightening” [...]
Venezuela VP Nicolas Maduro Accuses U.S. of Murdering Hugo Chavez
The government of Venezuela has announced that Hugo Chavez died this afternoon. His death was not unexpected. Media Credit: EFE/David Fernandez/Newscom What is unexpected is what occurred earlier today. Vice President Nicolas Maduro—Chavez’s heir apparent—informed a televised audience that Chavez was the victim of an attack by his enemies. “We have not a single doubt and at the proper moment we will convene a medical board to confirm that Chavez was attacked,” Maduro said. He linked Chavez’s case with that of Palestinian Liberation Organization leader Yasser Arafat, whose death, Maduro said, was caused by poisoning by the Israelis. Maduro then ordered the expulsion of U.S. military attaché David del Monaco, whom he charged with advancing “destabilizing projects” [...]
Flashback – Hugo Chávez – US gave me Cancer
Caracas.- Hugo Chávez says that the United States may have found a way to cause his cancer and that of other Latin American leaders. Chavez Claims the United States gave him Cancer The Venezuelan president, who had surgery in June to remove a tumor, speculated in a nationally televised speech about the possibility that America has developed “the technology” to induce cancer, Chávez said it was “very, very, very strange” that so many left-wing Latin American leaders have been diagnosed with cancer, including Chávez, Argentina’s Cristina Fernandez, Paraguay’s Fernando Lugo, Brazil’s Dilma Rousseff and former Brazilian president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. “It would not be strange if they had developed the technology to induce cancer and nobody knew about it until [...]
We Can Handle The Truth!
So maybe, just maybe, the nail in the coffin of American Journalism has popped out a bit before its inevitable lowering into the annals of history. The Obama Administration’s most recent debacle, under the label sequestration, a word even Webster had trouble defining, is perhaps the most glaring example yet of the “misleading leadership” that defines our government. Unfortunately, to those of us who were taught media principles, such as "good reporting must be objective reporting," our own press is nothing more than "The Left-Leaning Brothers Circus.". In fact, "The Biased Show on Earth" features reporters who, to the amazement of audiences everywhere, fail time and time again to ask a difficult question to our elected officials! However, the most recent [...]
