			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those old enough to remember, the Watergate scandal was dismissed as a minor incident by some partisans when it broke. Then it ended up sacking an American president. And this Internal Revenue Service (IRS) scandal could do the same to Obama.</p>
<p>The minute that reporter Bob Woodward of Watergate fame turns on Obama then the game is over.&nbsp; Here is what Woodward said:</p>
<p>&ldquo;I know there have been these comparisons to Watergate. I would say not yet.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Note the words &ldquo;not yet&rdquo;&hellip;</p>
<p>Very interesting. Let&rsquo;s keep an ear out for anything new from Mr. Woodward. Don&rsquo;t think that he would not love to hype himself up on a new scandal 40 years after Watergate.</p>
<p>And don&rsquo;t think that this scandal is just about the IRS. Now it is being reported that the Environmental Protection Agency targeted the businesses of conservatives and Republicans with extra scrutiny, harassment, intimidation and demands.</p>
<p>Other federal agencies are reported to have done the same. In the 2009 General Motors/Chrysler bailout it was reported that car dealers targeted for closing were overwhelmingly owned by Republicans.</p>
<p>Nikitas3.com is guessing that this IRS scandal is going to be much worse than Watergate because it, in effect, flipped the whole November 2012 election to the Democrats by using government power against millions of citizens.</p>
<p>Mitt Romney and the Republicans could have won that election, including a dozen US Senate races, if the IRS and other agencies had not disenfranchised, defunded and scared off millions of conservative voters in a coordinated effort over several years.</p>
<p>Now the Liberal Media are going into damage control mode on behalf of Obama. That is why they are circling the wagons and shouting, &ldquo;There&rsquo;s nothing to see here! Please go and worry about the economy! This is not Nixon! Republicans are overplaying their hand!&rdquo; Even Obama himself took a lame shot, claiming that the growing IRS scandal is taking focus off of the economy.</p>
<p>These media types know exactly how these scandals start, grow and then metastasize. They see this one inflating like a balloon, like multiple balloons, in fact. They would like to pop it now&hellip; if they could.</p>
<p>But the internet and talk radio and Fox News have taken away their monopoly. They no longer can control the flow of information and squash the truth like they have done for decades on issues involving Democrats, like covering up for the Kennedys or Bill Clinton. And this is why Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and Nikitas3.com are going to be the ones that finally expose this fraud.</p>
<p>Just imagine that the Bush administration had used the IRS to intimidate black civil rights groups. The Liberal Media would explode. But when a Democrat administration uses government power to harass, intimidate and threaten conservative white groups, the liberals try to put the lid on the boiling pot.</p>
<p>But they are only burning their fingers and they know it so they have to strategize. That is why three of the most important liberal journalists are reported to have had a private meeting with Obama recently.</p>
<p>Nikitas3.com predicts that the internet and Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and the rest of the Honest Media are not only exposing the story, but are going to shame and force the dishonest Liberal Media into exposing it. The dam will finally break when the <em>Washington Post</em> and the <em>New York Times</em> and NBC and CBS can&rsquo;t hold it back any longer &ndash; after trying their hardest, rest assured.</p>
<p>It gets worse. Foxnews.com reported:</p>
<p>Democratic and Republican lawmakers were visibly frustrated Wednesday at the third congressional hearing on the IRS&#39; practice of singling out conservative groups. Members of Congress asked, again and again, how the program started and why nobody in the agency&#39;s upper echelons notified Congress despite knowing about it at least a year ago.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&hellip;Within minutes, though, the star witness &#8212; Lois Lerner, director of the IRS division in charge of the controversial program &#8212; invoked the Fifth Amendment and refused to testify.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Committee leaders briefly tried to get her to change her mind, but she was ultimately dismissed. (end of foxnews.com excerpt)</p>
<p>So there you go. A top IRS official taking the Fifth Amendment. This is more evidence of something huge. It has COVER-UP written all over it.</p>
<p>It is what we conservatives have warned about Obama &ndash; that he is a hard-left, secretive, manipulative shill who would corrupt American Constitutional freedom in a heartbeat in the name of political power.</p>
<p>Reported latimes.com, the website of the <em>Los Angeles Times:</em></p>
<p>Taylor, a criminal defense attorney from the Washington firm Zuckerman Spaeder, said that the Department of Justice has launched a criminal investigation, and that the House committee has asked Lerner to explain why she provided &ldquo;false or misleading information&rdquo; to the committee four times last year. (end of latimes.com excerpt)</p>
<p>&ldquo;False or misleading information&rdquo;&hellip; What was she trying to hide? Get ready for even more explosive revelations. Every day, this gets bigger.</p>
<p>Here is how latimes.com then grovels for Lerner:</p>
<p>According to an inspector general&rsquo;s report, Lerner found out in June 2011 that some staff in the (IRS) nonprofits division in Cincinnati had used terms such as &ldquo;Tea Party&rdquo; and &ldquo;Patriots&rdquo; to select some applications for additional screening of their political activities. She ordered changes. (end of latimes.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Look at that neat little phrase inserted innocently at the end, that &lsquo;She ordered changes&rsquo;, like a throwaway line to cover for Lerner.</p>
<p>Who says she &lsquo;ordered changes&rsquo;? If she did, then why is she taking the Fifth Amendment?</p>
<p>Here is an excerpt from nationalreview.com:</p>
<p>True the Vote, a Houston-based nonprofit dedicated&nbsp;to fighting voter fraud, has filed suit in federal court against the IRS, asking the court to grant its tax-exempt status (three years after applying) and seeking damages for unlawful actions taken by the IRS against the organization.</p>
<p>Catherine Engelbrecht, a member of the Harris County, Texas, tea-party organization King Street Patriots, founded True the Vote after serving as a poll worker during the 2008 elections. Observing how understaffed polling places seemed to encourage voter fraud, she established True the Vote to train poll workers to &ldquo;true&rdquo; the vote: &ldquo;to research the voter rolls in their home districts and to report inaccuracies to their County and State, to identify instances of vote fraud, and to be able to serve as observers at the polls to assure the integrity of the vote.&rdquo; (end of nationalreview.com excerpt)</p>
<p>So in other words, a group seeking to monitor Democrat voter fraud is subjected to more Democrat fraud and intimidation. This is frightening. And fortunately it is being exposed before the nation falls. Because this literally could be the End of America.</p>
<p>The scandal is working in reverse as well with Democrats using legal power to exonerate Obama&rsquo;s friends. Breitbart.com reported:</p>
<p>News reports from the time indicate&nbsp;the now-chief counsel of the IRS, William Wilkins, helped a church connected to President Barack Obama&rsquo;s friend Rev. Jeremiah Wright get out of an IRS probe in 2008 while working as a private attorney.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Lawyers from Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr have won the dismissal of an IRS case against United Church of Christ, Sen. Barack Obama&#39;s denomination,&rdquo; <em>The American Lawyer</em>&rsquo;s Zach Lowe wrote on May 22, 2008.&nbsp;(end of breitbart.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Unbelievable. But it is wonderful that we still have a free and honest press to uncover this treachery. No, not NBC and National Public Radio and the <em>New York Times</em>. They are liars and obfuscators and have been for decades. The truth is being told by Fox News and Breitbart and Nikitas3.com and other conservatives&hellip; as always.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a story on the internet about a college kid who says that both of his parents have Ph.Ds but that they both are unemployed.</p>
<p>Awwww&hellip;. Poor Ph.Ds&hellip; So smart and so unemployed!</p>
<p>Yet this kid fails to understand that millions of Americans are unemployed in the first place, including his parents, because there are too many Ph.Ds in our nation.</p>
<p>Huh? How does that work?!</p>
<p>Think about it. Who is undermining our economy?</p>
<p>Answer: The Democrat left is doing so with endless assaults on business &ndash; excessive taxation and regulation, overzealous enviro laws, suits by trial lawyers, outrageous demands by labor unions, and a mountain of anti-business press every single day. These forces have been killing jobs for decades now and sending them overseas.</p>
<p>For instance labor unions alone have been responsible for driving companies and entire industries out of business and millions of jobs out of America as far back as the 1950s.</p>
<p>Meanwhile modern-day environmentalism makes it difficult if not impossible for many essential wealth-creating industries to operate (logging, mining, oil drilling, manufacturing etc.).</p>
<p>The latest crusade of environmentalists is to stop natural gas extraction. They have succeeded in Upstate New York.</p>
<p>Gee, isn&rsquo;t natural gas the &ldquo;clean&rdquo; fuel that environmentalists have been demanding for decades now?</p>
<p>Yup. And environmentalism is concentrated heavily in the universities&hellip; you know, where the Ph.Ds used to thrive.</p>
<p>Obama in 2011 chose as his commerce secretary John Bryson who helped to found the Natural Resources Defense Council, an extremist environmental group. And now Obama has chosen as his Interior secretary Sally Jewell. Here is how Jewell is described by wikipedia.org:</p>
<p>In 1996, she joined the board of REI and in 2000 was named chief operating officer. In 2005, she succeeded Dennis Madsen as chief executive officer. (<em>Note:</em> REI makes and retails backpacking equipment.)</p>
<p>Jewell has sat on the boards of &hellip; the National Parks Conservation Association, and &hellip;She helped found the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust. &nbsp;</p>
<p>In 2009, Jewell received the National Audubon Society&rsquo;s Rachel Carson Award for her leadership in and dedication to conservation. The Rachel Carson Award honors visionary women whose expertise and dedication advance conservation locally and nationally. (end of wikipedia.org excerpt)</p>
<p>In other words Jewell has become a militant environmentalist. And the Rachel Carson award is telling. Because Carson wrote the 1962 book <em>Silent Spring</em> that led to the banning worldwide of the chemical DDT. Tens of millions of people, perhaps many more, in poor nations died as a result of the ban since DDT killed the mosquitos that spread malaria. DDT now is widely back in use after its dangers were debunked.</p>
<p>Thus you can rest assured that Jewell will always side with the eco-fearmongers and against using public lands for the economic benefit of all Americans, but only for the leisure benefit of the snob environmental elite on their precious backpacking trips. (Bryson resigned in 2012 as a result of a car accident.)</p>
<p>In short, those who are intellectually at the heart of American liberalism and regulation and environmentalism are members in good standing of the leftist intellectual and academic elite who are harming our economy and putting people out of work, including Ph.Ds. They are people like Jewell and Bryson and thousands like them. They vote 95% for Obama and the Democrats. They always fall on the side of government power.</p>
<p>These Ph.Ds used to be able to walk into a university and find great jobs. But no more. Those jobs are drying up as jobs further down the economic chain that actually create wealth &ndash; like logging and mining and manufacturing &ndash; are being thwarted by liberals of every stripe (regulators, environmentalists, media elites, university economists with job-killing theories about wealth creation etc.).</p>
<p>So in effect the Ph.Ds are putting other Ph.Ds out of a job.</p>
<p>Who woulda thunk it? Imagine that. A vicious cycle emanating from the political left.</p>
<p>And normally these Ph.Ds would work at universities or colleges where they are insulated from the general economy that is being harmed by their policies. But even the universities are having financial problems in this recession. So finally the Obama Economy is catching up even with those on the political left.</p>
<p>In fact many arts organizations nationwide (dance troupes, theater groups, art galleries, museums, art publications etc.) have closed their doors or shrunk dramatically under Obama. Yet the <em>awtists</em> mostly all continue to support Obama.</p>
<p>Doesn&rsquo;t make sense, does it?</p>
<p>Actually it makes perfect sense. Because 70 years of prosperity since World War II have allowed these arts elites to ignore economic reality, and they continue to do so.</p>
<p>Indeed capitalist wealth was able to paper over the trap doors of socialism that now have fallen open. And the paper is not doing anything to prevent people from falling through. Because it is just paper&hellip; you know, the stuff that all those Ph.D theses are written on.</p>
<p>Worthless paper full of worthless words. And now the Ph.Ds are finding that all their paper brilliance is not working in the new, shrunken Obama economy. But they are not smart enough to understand why.</p>
<p>Meanwhile leftists in our universities speak out repeatedly against banks and Wall Street and corporations when they should be down at the White House protesting Obama and Sally Jewell and $6 trillion in debt that Obama has incurred since he took office.</p>
<p>Consider Upstate New York. It is suffering economically under stricter and stricter enviro laws like the one that allowed state officials in 2006 to kill off a proposed state-of-the-art cement production plant near Albany.</p>
<p>That plant would have employed hundreds of people and would have replaced older, dirtier plants in the area, assuring environmentally-sound cement production in the region for decades to come.</p>
<p>Now that cement production will likely go overseas. Thus we will lose jobs in the United States; send money to a foreign nation for cement; and import cement from nations with much looser enviro laws than New York state.</p>
<p>But the college kid would argue that his Ph.D parents would never work at a cement plant. Because the college kid, like any liberal, does not understand economics but only sees the world in terms of his own selfish interests. Like wondering why his parents are unemployed even though they are so brilliant.</p>
<p>But they are not so brilliant at all. They are modern-day intellectuals. And most of what goes on in today&rsquo;s universities adds up to little or nothing, like government-funded studies of pot-smoking monkeys and that sort of baloney.</p>
<p>So finally the nothingness of academia is catching up with the nothingness in the Democrats&rsquo; economic plans. Because the more obstruction that is placed in the path of economic freedom and growth &#8211; like the cement plant &#8211; the less wealth you are going to have. And the fewer jobs, even at universities.</p>
<p>That is not, however, the way that the average college kid sees the world. He was force-fed the leftist dogma at his public schools and in college that cement plants are bad, but that colleges and arts organizations are good because smart and &lsquo;cool&rsquo; people work in them.</p>
<p>No, the basics of economics and capitalism and wealth creation are never discussed in today&rsquo;s public schools, much less in the universities where money used to fall from the sky as it always does in utopia.</p>
<p>But the utopia that the socialist left has been constructing for decades is built on a foundation of sand with a house of cards on top. Indeed socialism is nothing but an intellectual construct created by people who are grossly out of touch with reality, like the reality of economic growth.</p>
<p>Meanwhile millions of young college graduates today are worried to death that they will never be able to pay back their student loans. Yet most never stop to think that their stints at these colleges may not have been worth the debt that they now have. They are too busy loving Obama and hating WalMart.</p>
<p>And for what were they incurring all this debt?</p>
<p>So that they can get a Ph.D and have a wonderful life.</p>
<p>Or at least they used to be able to do so.</p>
<p>(<em>Note:</em> My thoughts and prayers go out to the folks in Moore, Oklahoma, who recently suffered great destruction in the tornado &ndash; Nikitas)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barack Obama addressed students at the graduation for Morehouse College. His speech was a smokescreen. Here are excerpts from the speech with Nikitas3.com comments about each.</p>
<p>Washingtonpost.com reported:</p>
<p>President Obama on Sunday summoned the graduates of historically black Morehouse College to &ldquo;transform the way we think about manhood,&rdquo; urging the young men to avoid the temptation to make excuses and to take responsibility for their families and their communities.</p>
<p>Delivering a commencement address at the all-male private liberal arts college in Atlanta, Obama spoke in deeply personal terms about the &ldquo;special obligation&rdquo; he feels as a black man to help those left behind.</p>
<p>&ldquo;There but for the grace of God, I might be in their shoes,&rdquo; Obama said. &ldquo;I might have been in prison. I might have been unemployed. I might not have been able to support a family &mdash; and that motivates me.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The president also reflected on the absence of his father growing up, noting that he was raised by a &ldquo;heroic single mother,&rdquo; and urged the young graduates not to shrink from their family responsibilities. (end of washingtopost.com excerpt)</p>
<p>So we are all supposed to think that finally a Democrat &ndash; the president of the United States, no less &#8211; is telling young blacks to shape up and to take care of their families.</p>
<p>But remember that this is just one speech and it was made to elite college students, not to blacks in the streets. So Obama will get credit for this lofty rhetoric while Democrat party policies will remain the same &ndash; tolerate and even celebrate black illegitimacy, blame others for black failure, blame racism and discrimination, blame white people, blame America etc.</p>
<p>Meanwhile conservatives are the most discriminated-against people when it comes to giving commencement addresses today at American universities. They are shut out of most colleges and slandered every minute on the same campuses that love Obama. Conservative student groups are often harassed and marginalized.</p>
<p>Whom did Obama&rsquo;s Internal Revenue Service target and intimidate in 2012?</p>
<p>White conservatives and Tea Partiers. So as Obama acts magnanimous and thoughtful in one graduation speech, his policies remain discriminatory and divisive.</p>
<p>Obama then said in his speech, &ldquo;I want to break that cycle &mdash; where a father&rsquo;s not at home, where a father&rsquo;s not helping to raise that son and daughter. I want to be a better father, a better husband, a better man.&rdquo;</p>
<p>So why did Obama grow up without his father?</p>
<p>Because his father ran away. That is how blacks commonly behave in Democrat America today where the black illegitimacy rate is sky high while hard-working white people &ndash; and responsible people of all races &#8211; pay more and more in taxes to raise millions of illegitimate black children.</p>
<p>Who ended up saving Obama when his African father ran away and his white communist mother went off the deep end?</p>
<p>Obama&rsquo;s white grandmother did. She was a vice president at a Hawaii bank and sent him to an elite prep school. Don&rsquo;t believe the myth that Obama was some deprived black kid.</p>
<p>Obama is a classic socialist. He has an amazing way of suppressing the fact that he is half-white. He even said in his speech that Morehouse graduates should fulfill the &quot;special obligation I felt, as a black man like you.&quot;</p>
<p>Huh??!!</p>
<p>Meanwhile we conservative white people sustain our American culture through hard work and discipline as Obama and his left-wing cronies slander us and send IRS goons after us.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t be fooled by one Obama speech. This is all for public consumption, for him to appear grandiose and thoughtful. But his Democrat policies contravene this persona.</p>
<p>Obama then told the Morehouse graduates that &ldquo;the bitter legacies of slavery and segregation&rdquo; still exist and that &ldquo;as Morehouse men, many of you know what it&rsquo;s like to be an outsider, to be marginalized, to feel the sting of discrimination. That&rsquo;s an experience that a lot of Americans share.&rdquo;</p>
<p>OK folks, there we go. Slavery ended in 1863. Blacks should stop playing the &lsquo;slavery card&rsquo; every minute, but they never will. It is like a drug to them.</p>
<p>Meanwhile we white conservatives felt that &ldquo;sting of discrimination&rdquo; during the 2012 election when Obama&rsquo;s Internal Revenue Service targeted us. We white people feel that &ldquo;sting&rdquo; every day in countless black criminal attacks on whites, including murders, which the Liberal Media cover up and which Obama never will discuss.</p>
<p>Here is a big question: How did Obama get into Columbia and Harvard if he, by his own admission, &ldquo;spent the last two years of high school in a (drug-induced) daze&hellip;&rdquo;</p>
<p>Answer: He got into Columbia and Harvard because he is black, by affirmative action, like his radical Muslim/communist father did. That is called &ldquo;preference&rdquo; while Obama cries the opposite&hellip; &ldquo;discrimination&rdquo;. This is a classic leftist diversionary tactic.</p>
<p>And guaranteed that a much better qualified white student did not get into Columbia and Harvard because Obama took the slot. This is repeated tens of thousands of times in America every year.</p>
<p>The Radford-Espenshade study even says that poor whites are 10 times <em>less</em> likely than poor blacks to get into Ivy League colleges. This is a result of liberal racism and discrimination. But don&rsquo;t expect Obama to mention that in a college commencement address. Because his friends in the universities are the worst discriminators of all.</p>
<p>Obama then said in his Morehouse speech that Muslim Americans are wrongly regarded with suspicion. This is fraud. Because there is very good reason for that suspicion. Just ask the people of Boston.</p>
<p>Obama said that too many young black males &ldquo;make bad choices. Growing up, I made quite a few myself. Sometimes I wrote off my own failings as just another example of the world trying to keep a black man down.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Yet if black males like Obama had any courage they would take personal responsibility for those &ldquo;bad choices&rdquo; and would strive to do better. But under socialism and affirmative action blacks blame white people and blame America and then get free scholarships to the best colleges like both Barack and Michelle Obama did.</p>
<p>Then Obama said in his speech, &ldquo;we&rsquo;ve got no time for excuses&rdquo; (from blacks for their failures).</p>
<p>Yes, just like we conservatives have been saying for decades &ndash; we&rsquo;ve got no time for excuses. But blacks have been living off of excuses since they became Democrats in the 1960s. Before that blacks were almost all Republicans because Republicans freed the slaves, and blacks were more humble and honest and accepted personal responsibility for their failures.</p>
<p>Indeed all of this excuse-making is why many blacks have not made more progress. Because they are too busy making excuses, i.e., being good Democrats.</p>
<p>Meanwhile we conservatives have urged widespread social reforms in black America so that blacks would have paths to self-improvement through school choice, school vouchers, respect for the family and for marriage, love of God, respect for morality and for law and order. Yet the Democrats have obliterated every proposal that we have made, with Obama leading the charge.</p>
<p>Obama said: &ldquo;Moreover you have to remember that whatever you&rsquo;ve gone through, it pales in comparison to the hardships previous (black) generations endured &mdash; and if they overcame them, you can overcome them, too.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Yes, sure, we&rsquo;ve heard all this countless times before. Yet liberals fail to mention that tens of millions of white people and other immigrants from all over the world have suffered great poverty and hardship since the founding of America &#8211; in our cities, on the farms, in the factories, on the homesteads, on the railroads, in their small businesses, on the frontier.</p>
<p>Washingtonpost.com reported:</p>
<p>Obama told the graduates that they needed to be role models for others in their communities and not just chase after high-paying jobs and fancy cars. If they get a law degree, he told the graduates, they shouldn&rsquo;t defend only the powerful, but also the powerless. If they get an MBA and start a business, Obama said, they shouldn&rsquo;t merely try to make money, but also consider the broader purpose their business might serve. (end of washingtonpost.com excerpt)</p>
<p>So here Obama is suggesting that perhaps these graduates could start businesses and create jobs for other people. Gee, that sounds a lot like what Mitt Romney did when he created 130,000 jobs in the companies he helped to found as a venture capitalist, firms like Staples and Steel Dynamics. Yet Romney was maligned by the Democrats and impugned by Obama who never created one single job as a community organizer in Chicago.</p>
<p>Obama told the graduates: &ldquo;You are the mantle of Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington and Ralph Bunche and Langston Hughes and George Washington Carver and Ralph Abernathy and Thurgood Marshall and, yes, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. &hellip; Every one of you has a grandma or an uncle or a parent whose told you at some point in life as an African American you have to work twice as hard as anyone else if you want to get by.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Notice no mention of successful conservative blacks like Clarence Thomas or Condoleezza Rice or JC Watts whom we white conservatives embrace and respect. In fact conservative blacks suffer hyper-discrimination at the hands of the &ldquo;caring&rdquo; and &ldquo;tolerant&rdquo; Democrats.</p>
<p>Meanwhile we whites now have to work twice as hard to protect ourselves against the black criminals who have flourished under the Democrat party ethos. Because violence and destruction are the handmaidens of radical Obama-style socialism.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The November 2012 election that re-elected Barack Obama and many Democrats in the US Senate should be declared null and void.</p>
<p>We now know that the Obama administration and its Internal Revenue Service goons disenfranchised millions of voters in that election by targeting Tea Partiers and other conservatives for IRS harassment and delay in getting their tax-exempt status. The number of voters disenfranchised in certain key states easily could have tipped the election to Romney.</p>
<p>This IRS corruption is no different than standing at the polling place to keep blacks from voting. Except this time the victims were white conservatives and the perpetrators were Democrats.</p>
<p>Oh, wait, isn&rsquo;t this the same Obama administration whose attorney general declined to prosecute the New Black Panther members who in fact did stand at a Philadelphia polling place intimidating white voters in 2008?</p>
<p>Yes, indeed. Here is how that incident is described by wikipedia.org:</p>
<p>The conduct for which members of the New Black Panther Party were accused of voter intimidation took place on Election Day in November 2008, at a polling station in a predominantly African-American, Democratic voting district of Philadelphia. Two members of the New Black Panther party, Minister King Samir Shabazz, and Jerry Jackson, stood in front of the entrance to the polling station in uniforms that have been described as military or paramilitary. Minister King Shabazz carried a billy club and is reported to have pointed it at voters while both men shouted racial slurs including phrases such as &quot;white devil&quot; and &quot;you&#39;re about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.&rdquo; The incident drew the attention of police, who around 10:00 am, sent King Samir away in part because of his billy club. Jackson was allowed to stay, in part because he was a certified poll watcher. Stephen Robert Morse, a journalist and filmmaker, upon arriving at the scene, pulled out a Flip video camera and focused on Samir Shabazz. Morse turned over the video of the incident to ElectionJournal.org. The incident gained national attention after being uploaded to YouTube. (end of wikipedia.org excerpt)</p>
<p>Now this IRS scandal is so clear and so recent that we can do something about it &ndash; we should go back and re-run the 2012 election, with all affected Tea Parties, conservatives and religious groups first receiving monetary damages.</p>
<p>And since the law was broken by the Democrats and Obama, those damages should be paid out of Democrat party coffers. Then the conservatives and Tea Partiers can spend the money any way they wish to further their cause in the special election.</p>
<p>And with Obama and the Democrats finally exposed for who they are, Republicans would win this election in a landslide. Because even in dumbed-down America there still is a majority of citizens that wants fair play. That majority is not what it used to be since the Democrats have so corrupted our nation. But still it is a clear majority.</p>
<p>Second, we need to re-run the election without Barack Obama or Joe Biden as the Democrat candidates. They are stained beyond recognition with scandals from the New Black Panthers to the IRS to Benghazi to repeated terrorist attacks that should have been prevented, like Boston and Fort Hood.</p>
<p>Indeed we Republicans should request that Mitt Romney run again because he would have won a fair election in 2012. Here is just one single example of Democrat malfeasance against Romney, as explained on breitbart.com:</p>
<p>One of President Barack Obama&#39;s re-election campaign co-chairmen used a leaked document from the IRS to attack GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney during the 2012 election, according to the National Organization for Marriage (NOM).</p>
<p>NOM, a pro-traditional marriage organization, claims the IRS leaked their 2008 confidential financial documents to the rival Human Rights Campaign. Those NOM documents were published on the Huffington Post on March 30, 2012. At that time, Joe Solmonese, a left-wing activist and Huffington Post contributor,&nbsp;was the president of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC). Solmonese was also a 2012 Obama campaign co-chairman.</p>
<p>Both the Huffington Post&#39;s Sam Stein and HRC described the leak as coming from a &ldquo;whistleblower.&rdquo; The Huffington Post used the document to write a story questioning former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney&rsquo;s support for traditional marriage. The document showed Romney donated $10,000 to NOM. HRC went a step further than the Huffington Post in its criticism of Romney and accused him of using &ldquo;racially divisive tactics&rdquo; in a press release. (end of breitbart.com excerpt)</p>
<p>This is just the tip of the iceberg. Just think about millions of conservative voters in states all across the nation who were disenfranchised, and all of the candidates smeared by Democrats using government information.</p>
<p>This led to incumbent Democrat victories not only in the presidency but also in important US Senate races that easily could have gone Republican &ndash; and in some cases were expected to go Republican &ndash; in places like North Dakota, Montana, Florida, Virginia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, New Mexico and Maine. The US Senate balance easily could have tipped to Republican if we had had a fair election.</p>
<p>So now those of us who predicted a Republican victory in 2012 know what really happened.</p>
<p>According to one congressman the IRS demanded of a pro-life group: &lsquo;Please detail the content of the members of your organization&rsquo;s prayers&rsquo;</p>
<p>This is utterly shocking. This is stunning. This is grossly unconstitutional.</p>
<p>Friends, this is why Democrats do what they do in their historical, repetitive electoral corruption from impugning decent conservatives like Sarah Palin to buying votes to stealing votes to using government information as a political weapon.</p>
<p>It goes down to the street level. In the 2012 election, I, Nikitas, was working for incumbent Republican US senator Scott Brown in his bid for a full term. When a Brown lawn sign disappeared that a Republican homeowner had allowed me to plant in his yard, I asked why. The resident told me in so many words, and with trepidation, that he had been intimidated by his liberal neighbor into taking the sign down. One other resident told me the same thing.</p>
<p>Many other Brown signs were stolen. In another case, a big 4 foot by 8 foot Brown sign on a main highway was spray-painted over within just a few days. I experienced other such incidents in just one small area.</p>
<p>These stories are all over the nation and they add up to millions of separate incidents that definitely affect elections. Then Democrats say that these are isolated incidents and that &ldquo;both sides do it&rdquo;. Which is untrue. This fraud and intimidation is 98% Democrat and it is a coordinated nationwide plan that affects hundreds, perhaps thousands of races. It has been part of Democrat party operations for more than 100 years.</p>
<p>In fact the only reason that ObamaCare passed in the first place in March 2010 is because Democrats had 60 US senators at the time. That is a special number &ndash; 60 Democrats out of 100 US senators &ndash; because it gives Democrats what is called &lsquo;filibuster proof&rsquo; power.</p>
<p>The reason that Democrats had this power is because two of the 2008 races that elected Democrats to fill US Senate seats held by Republicans were corrupted by fraud.</p>
<p>In Minnesota, Democrat Al Franken won the seat from incumbent Republican Norm Coleman after several hundred Democrat ballots &ldquo;magically&rdquo; turned up when the race seemed very close. This is a standard Democrat fraud tactic.</p>
<p>In Alaska, incumbent Republican US senator Ted Stevens was called up on bogus legal charges in Summer 2008 that caused him to lose his re-election bid by a razor-thin margin, as he proclaimed that it was a political prosecution. Those charges were dropped after the election.</p>
<p>Now in addition to all of the routine Democrat fraud, this IRS scandal is vastly worse than Watergate. An entire American election was clearly tilted. And it is time for Republicans to fight back hard.</p>
<p>After all Richard Nixon did not fight in 1960 when it was a known fact that the Democrats and the Chicago mafia stole the presidential election for John F. Kennedy. If you are too young to know about this, look it up.</p>
<p>All of this comes atop another major <a href="http://nikitas3.com/3199/democrat-voter-fraud-has-reached-the-pentagon/">scandal</a> involving disenfranchised military voters as summarized by Nikitas3.com on October 3, 2012 in a commentary called <em>Democrat Voter Fraud has Reached the Pentagon.</em></p>
<p>This fraud clearly helped to tip some important states to Obama and the Democrats.</p>
<p>Republicans should demand a full investigation, including both the IRS fraud and the military ballot fraud. They should shut down the government and hold hearings until we know the truth. Because a government shutdown is nothing compared to the damage that the Democrats have done to our republic.</p>
<p>Republicans then should unanimously demand a re-play of the 2012 election without Obama or Biden on the Democrat ticket.</p>
<p>But many would cower at such a suggestion: Oh, no! We can&rsquo;t do that! It&rsquo;s never been done before! they would say.</p>
<p>To which Nikitas3.com says, &ldquo;Like hell. We have never had this kind of corruption before. Not even Watergate. Not even close.&rdquo;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is an old adage in politics that &ldquo;the cover-up is worse than the crime&rdquo;.</p>
<p>And indeed Obama suddenly has run into a bulldozer of both scandal and cover-up in not one but <em>five</em> separate issues, the first and foremost being the use of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to harass, intimidate and disenfranchise Obama opponents.</p>
<p>Then comes the Benghazi consulate attack in Libya and the cover-up of what really happened; the suspicious and still-unexplained reasons for the crash of the Chinook helicopter in Afghanistan in 2011, killing 30 US military personnel including elite fighters from the Navy SEAL Team Six that killed bin Laden; the seizing by the Obama Justice Department of phone records from reporters of the Associated Press in a &ldquo;leak&rdquo; investigation; and repeated small-scale terrorist attacks under Obama, with the Boston Marathon bombing being the latest.</p>
<p>These scandals are happening because Obama is a radical, unaccountable socialist with a complicit media that won&rsquo;t expose him. And don&rsquo;t think that these stories are not much deeper and more pervasive than we know. New information is trickling out every day about this IRS scandal.</p>
<p>Remember when it was announced that General Electric would pay no taxes on billions in profits earned in 2010? And it was glossed over by the media because it happened under Obama? When it would have been a major scandal under Bush?</p>
<p>We conservatives warned that this was typical Democrat socialism where Obama&rsquo;s rich friends like General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt get big tax breaks while everybody else pays more and more to make up the deficit.</p>
<p>And now we are seeing socialism writ large again with Obama using the IRS as a political weapon, this time in the opposite way as these Tea Parties were subjected to inordinate IRS harassment and delay despite the fact that they were just small grass-roots organizations.</p>
<p>It is a clear sign that Obama Socialism is out of control. As expected. And this is precisely what the Founding Fathers warned about &ndash; an all-powerful government intimidating and thwarting the people until they can no longer exercise their freedoms.</p>
<p>Oh, sure, Obama says he knew nothing, and the IRS chief has resigned and a few lower-down IRS officials will be fired.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t buy this fraud. These IRS people are loyal socialists who know exactly what Obama wants and they work in a way such that his fingerprints would not be on the scandal. And the IRS chief will leave his job with a full pension, rest assured.</p>
<h3>Washingtonpost.com reported:</h3>
<p>Federal authorities have opened a criminal investigation of whether Internal Revenue Service employees broke the law when they targeted conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status &mdash; the latest setback for an agency that is the subject of withering bipartisan criticism and multiple congressional inquiries.</p>
<p>Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said Tuesday that the Justice Department and the FBI began the probe after the IRS acknowledged that it selected conservative groups with the words &ldquo;tea party&rdquo; and &ldquo;patriot&rdquo; in their names for special reviews.</p>
<p>Also Tuesday, a widely anticipated report by the IRS&rsquo;s watchdog described the agency&rsquo;s tax-exempt unit &mdash; where the screening of conservative groups occurred &mdash; as a bureaucratic mess, with some employees ignorant about tax laws, defiant of their supervisors and blind to the appearance of impropriety. (end of washingtonpost.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Think of it &ndash; the word &ldquo;patriot&rdquo; is dangerous to the Democrat left. While the ultra-corrupt ACORN has gotten boatloads of taxpayer money for decades and Obama sends more than $1 billion in military aid to the oppressive Islamic government in Egypt.</p>
<p>&hellip;&lsquo;a bureaucratic mess, with some employees ignorant about tax laws, defiant of their supervisors and blind to the appearance of impropriety&rsquo;?</p>
<p>This is another example of a corrupt federal government whose employees earn exorbitant salaries, benefits and pensions as their agencies sink into ineptitude and malfeasance that would have the Founding Fathers in an uproar. These people would be fired if they worked in the private sector. That is why they work for the government.</p>
<p>Said George Washington: &ldquo;Government is not reason, it is not eloquence &ndash; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and fearful master.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The British political leader Lord Acton (1834-1902) famously said, &ldquo;Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.&rdquo;</p>
<p>In another instance in a growing litany, politico.com reported:</p>
<p>The IRS came after Billy Graham, too, his son charged Tuesday in a letter to President Barack Obama.</p>
<p>Franklin Graham, the president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and the family&rsquo;s international humanitarian organization Samaritan&rsquo;s Purse, said that the IRS notified the organizations in September that it was conducting a &ldquo;review&rdquo; of their activities for tax year 2010.</p>
<p>With the IRS admitting it gave extra scrutiny to conservative political organizations, Graham says he now believes that the review was part of an Obama administration effort of &ldquo;targeting and attempting to intimidate us.&rdquo; (end of politco.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Billy Graham targeted? Perhaps the most decent man in America?</p>
<p>Unbelievable, until you think about who is doing the targeting&hellip; the militant leftist/atheist Obama administration. Then it all makes sense.</p>
<p>This is classic socialism &ndash; decent, conservative, hard-working, honest, taxpaying people are targeted and harassed while bad people are given the key to the treasury, including millions of lazy welfare deadbeats.</p>
<p>Now&hellip; why do you think that Obama&rsquo;s multi-billionaire friends like Warren Buffett and Michael Bloomberg repeatedly side with the Obama narrative that rich people are evil and that &ldquo;the rich must pay more in taxes&rdquo; when they themselves are rich?</p>
<p>Most Americans only scratch their heads over this paradox. Because most Americans are na&iuml;ve about how abusive government power works, and who &ldquo;the rich&rdquo; really are in the first place.</p>
<p>These billionaires play along because they are liberals, they vote for Obama, they donate to liberal causes and often they profit from government spending. They are Obama&rsquo;s friends, and thus they don&rsquo;t get Internal Revenue Service scrutiny, like General Electric did not. They can take all they want in tax deductions and never be exposed.</p>
<p>Meanwhile wealthy conservatives and Republicans are harassed, targeted and audited. And this goes all the way down to little Tea Party groups with budgets of only a few hundred dollars.</p>
<p>This is how the Democrat party wields the IRS (the government) to intimidate good people. This is why Democrats do not want any changes at all to the tax code. Because they want the IRS as a weapon.</p>
<p>Here is more from politico.com:</p>
<p>The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association urging of voters to back &ldquo;candidates who base their decisions on biblical principles and support the nation of Israel&rdquo; during last year&rsquo;s presidential race was the reason why IRS agents visited the North Carolina offices of both Graham groups, the letter accuses.</p>
<p>&ldquo;While these audits not only wasted taxpayer money, they wasted money contributed by donors for ministry purposes as we had to spend precious resources servicing the IRS agents in our offices,&rdquo; Graham wrote in the letter shared with POLITICO. &ldquo;I believe that someone in the administration was targeting and attempting to intimidate us. This is morally wrong and unethical &ndash; indeed some would call it &lsquo;un-American.&rdquo; (end of politico.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Think of it &#8211; a group that supports &lsquo;biblical principles&rsquo; and &lsquo;the nation of Israel&rsquo; is targeted by the Democrats. Because that is what liberals consider a threat to America&hellip; or rather to Democrat power.</p>
<p>Meanwhile millions of illegal aliens run free all over America, Obama ignores the bottomless corruption in our cities run by his Democrat cronies, and solar energy companies collapse like dominoes after getting billions in taxpayer cash.</p>
<p>There&rsquo;s a new story every day. Here is an excerpt from theblaze.com:</p>
<p>Dr.&nbsp;Anne Hendershott, a devout Catholic and a noted sociologist, professor and author, exclusively told TheBlaze that she believes she may have been one of the IRS&rsquo;s targets.</p>
<p>According to Hendershott, the IRS audited her in 2010 and demanded to know who was paying her and &ldquo;what their politics were.&rdquo;</p>
<p>It all started with a phone call she received at her home in May of that year &mdash; a call during which&nbsp;Hendershott was told she would be audited. A letter that followed on May 19, 2010 solidified the IRS&rsquo;s request to meet her in person two months later in July. While IRS investigations are certainly not uncommon occurrences, the professor believes that the situation surrounding hers was more-than-curious.</p>
<p>&ldquo;The IRS calls my house and says &hellip; &lsquo;I just wanted to let you know that we&rsquo;re going to be auditing your business&rsquo; and I said &lsquo;My businesses?&rsquo; and he said, &lsquo;You know the expenses you take off for writing,&rdquo; the academic recalls. (end of theblaze.com excerpt)</p>
<p>This is a type of &ldquo;totalitarianism&rdquo; or &lsquo;total control&rsquo; over all people through government intimidation.</p>
<p>Remember when Joe the Plumber confronted Obama during the 2008 campaign? Then within just a day or two, damaging facts about Joe&rsquo;s personal finances were leaked by a public official in Ohio?</p>
<p>This official did not even have to be told what to do. This is what Democrats naturally do to promote a leftist agenda and defame opponents. It is ingrained into them from their youth to use government power in every way possible. And this is why Obama can play dumb about the IRS scandal.</p>
<p>And that is why liberals obsessively need and want to be in the government.</p>
<p>Here is an excerpt from breitbart.com:</p>
<p>One of President Barack Obama&#39;s re-election campaign co-chairmen used a leaked document from the IRS to attack GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney during the 2012 election, according to the National Organization for Marriage (NOM).</p>
<p>NOM, a pro-traditional marriage organization, claims the IRS leaked their 2008 confidential financial documents to the rival Human Rights Campaign. Those NOM documents were published on the Huffington Post on March 30, 2012. At that time, Joe Solmonese, a left-wing activist and Huffington Post contributor,&nbsp;was the president of the Human Rights Campaign (HRC). Solmonese was also a 2012 Obama campaign co-chairman.</p>
<p>Both the Huffington Post&#39;s Sam Stein and HRC described the leak as coming from a &ldquo;whistleblower.&rdquo; The Huffington Post used the document to write a story questioning former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney&rsquo;s support for traditional marriage. The document showed Romney donated $10,000 to NOM. HRC went a step further than the Huffington Post in its criticism of Romney and accused him of using &ldquo;racially divisive tactics&rdquo; in a press release. (end of breitbart.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Friends, this is how all oppressive governments work just like we conservatives have always warned and like the Founding Fathers warned. That is why our Constitution is a document that does not list what the government can do, but it lists what the government CANNOT do, i.e, &ldquo;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peacably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Breitbart.com further reported:</p>
<p>NOM discovered that when HRC published its confidential financial documents, it failed to conceal the source of the documents. &ldquo;After software removed the layers obscuring the document, it is shown that the document came from the Internal Revenue Service,&rdquo; NOM asserted in its April 2012 release.</p>
<p>&ldquo;The top of each page says, &lsquo;THIS IS A COPY OF A LIVE RETURN FROM SMIPS. OFFICIAL USE ONLY,&rsquo;&quot; the statement continues. &quot;On each page of the return is stamped a document ID of &lsquo;100560209.&rsquo; Only the IRS would have the Form 990 with &lsquo;Official Use&rsquo; information.&quot; (end of breitbart.com excerpt)</p>
<p>There was nothing vaguely like this under George W. Bush, yet Bush was trashed by the Democrats and media for years.</p>
<p>This is Watergate on steroids&hellip; except this time our media love the president, unlike Richard Nixon whom they hated. Meanwhile an honest businessman like Mitt Romney is impugned to the heavens and targeted for political destruction.</p>
<p>Townhall.com reported:</p>
<p>In February 2010, the Champaign Tea Party in Illinois received approval of its tax-exempt status from the IRS in 90 days, no questions asked. That was the month before the Internal Revenue Service started singling out Tea Party groups for special treatment. <strong>There wouldn&#39;t be another Tea Party application approved for 27 months. In that time, the IRS approved perhaps dozens of applications from similar liberal and progressive groups</strong>, a USA TODAY review of IRS data shows. As applications from conservative groups sat in limbo, groups with liberal-sounding names had their applications approved in as little as nine months. With names including words like &quot;Progress&quot; or &quot;Progressive,&quot; the <strong>liberal groups applied for the same tax status and were engaged in the same kinds of activities as the conservative groups. </strong>(end of townhall.com excerpt)</p>
<p>So not only have conservative groups been targeted but, in addition, they are being denied political participation through delay. This definitely played a role in Obama&rsquo;s 2012 electoral victory as Democrats have chipped away voter by voter for years at the Republican/conservative electorate.</p>
<p>These scandals &ndash; and this is not all of them, rest assured &ndash; are what happens when an arrogant Democrat cabal like Obama&rsquo;s takes control of a nation and has the full complicity of the media.</p>
<p>But the seizing of phone records from Associated Press reporters over the information &ldquo;leak&rdquo; could create conditions under which some of these Liberal Media hounds could turn on Obama.</p>
<p>Here is Bush attorney general Alberto Gonzales about a similar situation during the Bush administration:</p>
<p>&ldquo;There was at least one occasion in which we were engaged in a very serious leak investigation and we had to make some very difficult choices about whether or not to move forward, going after the reporters in order to try to figure out where the source of the leak is. And sometimes, the department finds itself in a situation where they have exhausted all means and they have to make a very hard determination as to whether or not they want to subpoena the reporter, if they want to subpoena the reporter&rsquo;s notes. So yes, I&rsquo;ve had that situation. In the instance that I have in mind, we ultimately decided not to move forward.&rdquo;</p>
<p>These Obama scandals are the Second Term Curse that is part of American political lore. And even if these scandals don&rsquo;t sink Obama &ndash; indeed Obama already is playing dumb &#8211; they are going to do him and his agenda harm. After all, how can we discuss immigration when we have these scandals?</p>
<p>And don&rsquo;t think that Democrats are not waking up every morning thinking about this very subject. Because the only thing that Democrats care about is political power.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Independent.co.uk, the website of the <em>Independent</em> newspaper in Britain, recently reported:</p>
<p>An idyllic hilltop setting in the Cadarache forest of Provence in the south of France has become the site of an ambitious attempt to harness the nuclear power of the sun and stars.</p>
<p>It is the place where 34 nations representing more than half the world&rsquo;s population have joined forces in the biggest scientific collaboration on the planet&hellip; The international nuclear fusion project &ndash; known as Iter, meaning &ldquo;the way&rdquo; in Latin &ndash; is designed to demonstrate a new kind of nuclear reactor capable of producing unlimited supplies of cheap, clean, safe and sustainable electricity from atomic fusion. (end of independent.co.uk excerpt)</p>
<p>OK, folks, here we go again. Another fraudulent plan to save the world. Now they are saying that the &ldquo;solution&rdquo; to our world energy &lsquo;crisis&rsquo; is just around the corner and it is nuclear &ldquo;fusion&rdquo; (not to be confused with nuclear &ldquo;fission&rdquo; which we already use in power plants).</p>
<p>Friends, there is no energy crisis. This crisis is all created by the environmentalists. For decades now we have been told by these enviro lunatics that solar power and windmills are &ldquo;cheap, safe and sustainable&rdquo; sources that will provide us with limitless electricity.</p>
<p>So then why are these scientists still working on nuclear fusion, which is inexplicably complex like nothing ever before?</p>
<p>It is because solar power and windmills don&rsquo;t work and everyone knows it. &lsquo;Green energy&rsquo; produces no usable energy at all. That is why &lsquo;green energy&rsquo; needs to be subsidized by the taxpayers. In short, you as a taxpayer are paying to subsidize the electric bill of your neighbor who has solar panels. It is utterly unsustainable, as all of socialism is.</p>
<p>Oh, sure, you can get a solar-powered car weighing 200 lbs. to carry one teenager at 9 miles an hour at high noon on a cloudless sunny day. But in the real world this solar car produces, in effect, zero usable energy. <em>This is solar energy in a nutshell; it produces no usable energy.</em> The smallest car on American highways today weighs 2,000 lbs. and most cars weigh up to 3,500 lbs. or more.</p>
<p>Reported independent.co.uk:</p>
<p>If (the fusion project) Iter demonstrates that it is possible to build commercially-viable fusion reactors then it could become the experiment that saved the world in a century threatened by climate change and an expected three-fold increase in global energy demand.</p>
<p>This week the project gained final approval for the design of the most technically challenging component &ndash; the fusion reactor&rsquo;s &ldquo;blanket&rdquo; that will handle the super-heated nuclear fuel.</p>
<p>The building site in Cadarache has also passed the crucial stage where some 493 seismic bearings &ndash; giant concrete and rubber plinths &ndash; have been set into the reactor&rsquo;s deep foundations to protect against possible earthquakes.</p>
<p>Over the next few years about a million individual components of the highly complex fusion reactor will arrive at the Cadarache site from around the world. They will be assembled like a giant Lego model in a nearby building which has a volume equal to 81 Olympic-sized swimming pools. (end of independent.co.uk excerpt)</p>
<p>What does this sound like?</p>
<p>Well, first of all it says &lsquo;If (the fusion project) Iter demonstrates that it is possible to build commercially-viable fusion reactors&hellip;&rsquo;</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s a big <em>if</em> to start. There is absolutely no indication that this project is going to succeed in any way.</p>
<p>Second this project has BOONDOGGLE written all over it in capital letters. So why are they doing it?</p>
<p>Because the same environmentalists who are promoting ineffective windmills and solar panels are blocking the most efficient energy source in the history of mankind &ndash; nuclear &lsquo;fission&rsquo; power like the nuclear plants that we already have. Today 435 reactors are operating worldwide, 220 in the US alone.</p>
<p>So-called &lsquo;breeder reactors&rsquo; are the best option going forward for nuclear fission energy. They actually &lsquo;breed&rsquo; more nuclear fuel than they consume through something called &lsquo;neutron conversion&rsquo;. There currently are breeder reactors operating in several countries. They could easily provide all of our global electricity demand for centuries to come.</p>
<p>What about nuclear waste?</p>
<p>First, breeder reactors keep using their existing fuel. There is little waste to begin with.</p>
<p>Second, the fear of nuclear radiation and nuclear waste is all completely fake disinformation being trumped up by radical environmentalists. Consider these facts:</p>
<p>*The Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were hit directly by American nuclear bomb blasts in 1945. Yet people live in those cities today and have lived there since right after the blasts. But the hysterical environmentalists of 1945 warned us over and over that the radiation would make those cities unlivable for thousands of years.</p>
<p>*The worst nuclear accident in the world, at Chernobyl in Ukraine in 1986, was predicted to kill millions of people. But in fact it killed just 31 people who were up close to the plant fighting the reactor fire. Meanwhile the area around the plant, which enviros said would be sterile for thousands of years, today is home to a lush variety of flora and fauna.</p>
<p>*The US government detonated atomic bombs in open-air tests just over the horizon from Las Vegas, Nevada in the 1940s. Yet Las Vegas never has been deemed radioactive and off limits to humans. Are there large swaths of Nevada that are radiation danger zones? No.</p>
<p>*Today a common medical practice shoots radiation at cancer cells to kill them. People who have had radiation treatments even set off radiation detector alarms after their treatments. Yet the radiation does not kill the nearby cells or harm the patient.</p>
<p>*Today almost every American home has a radiation device in its kitchen &ndash; a microwave oven. Yet environmentalists warned about this &ldquo;dangerous device&rdquo; when it first was introduced.</p>
<p>Reported independent.co.uk about the Iter fusion project:</p>
<p>&ldquo;It is the largest scientific collaboration in the world. In fact, the project is so complex we even had to invent our own currency &ndash; known as the Iter Unit of Account &ndash; to decide how each country pays its share,&rdquo; says Carlos Alejaldre, Iter&rsquo;s deputy director responsible for safety. (end of independent.co.uk excerpt)</p>
<p>So there you go&hellip; That is why they are pursuing this &lsquo;fusion&rsquo; boondoggle. Because it is just another government program, this one drawing taxpayer money from all over the world. It is employing thousands of &ldquo;scientists&rdquo; at huge salaries, people who would otherwise be washing dishes, where many of them belong. It is pure socialism.</p>
<p>Yet we already have nuclear &lsquo;fission&rsquo; power and have had it for decades. Today we Americans get 21% of our electricity from &lsquo;fission&rsquo; power plants. Meanwhile many US Navy aircraft carriers and submarines are quietly and efficiently powered by &lsquo;fission&rsquo; reactors and have been for decades.</p>
<p>In short, we do not need this Iter project. It is just more pie in the sky, and a government scam to boot.</p>
<p>Now look at this built-in bias in the independent.co.uk report:</p>
<p>Many energy experts believe that nuclear fusion is the only serious, environmentally-friendly way of reliably producing &ldquo;base-load&rdquo; electricity 24/7. It is, they argue, the only way of generating industrial-scale quantities of electricity night and day without relying on carbon-intensive fossil fuels or dangerous and dirty conventional nuclear power.</p>
<p>&lsquo;Dangerous and dirty&rsquo;? Who says? Name one single person who has died of nuclear power in America.</p>
<p>You can&rsquo;t. Because not one single person has ever died. US president Jimmy Carter even went right inside the Three Mile Island plant right after the nuclear accident there in 1979. He is still alive today 34 years later. Yet environmentalists were calling TMI the most dangerous place on earth.</p>
<p>We already have the solution to our global power needs. It is called nuclear &lsquo;fission&rsquo; power. It has been around since the 1940s and can provide all of our global electricity demands without destroying the environment with millions of skyscraper-sized windmills scarring the landscape or billions of acres of ineffective solar panels blackening the earth.</p>
<p>And if you ever have seen birds killed by windmills, it is sickening. And it is happening by the millions but is being covered up by the media and the environmentalists. Here is one sad <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwVz5hdAMGU">video</a></p>
<p>Meanwhile many people have reported being sickened by windmills and their constant rotation. The media, of course, are ignoring this.</p>
<p>Here is another hint about the absurd nature of the Iter fusion project:</p>
<p>The original date for &ldquo;first plasma&rdquo; (first energy production) was scheduled for November 2020 but delays with the construction and commissioning phases have pushed this back to October 2022 &ndash; although some of that lost time has since been clawed back. One of the electromagnetic coils used in the giant magnets, for instance, had to be scrapped after a worker in one of the participating countries left a towel on one of the superconducting cables which then became compressed within a coil. Costly mishaps like this put the entire project behind schedule. (end of independent.co.uk excerpt)</p>
<p>Oh, sure, just 9 more years and we will see the first teeny, tiny trickle of energy after decades of experimentation, after we have rocketed to the moon and developed supercomputers.</p>
<p>What does this Iter project remind you of?</p>
<p>Well, if you remember over the last decade we were told over and over that hydrogen fuel cells would power our cars forever with no pollution. Yet we do not hear about hydrogen fuel cells anymore. Have you noticed? Why not?</p>
<p>It is because they were just another utopian scam from the environmentalists, a proposal that Nikitas3.com said repeatedly would never work on a commercial scale. And this fusion project is 100 times as bad.</p>
<p>Nuclear &lsquo;fission&rsquo; power is the answer. We don&rsquo;t need any expensive research. We already have the technology. Let&rsquo;s use it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>(This is a Nikitas3.com editorial from late 2010 that is still pertinent today.)</em></p>
<p>C-Span is a noncommercial cable TV channel (actually three channels now) that shows programs and events that would never be covered on traditional commercial stations. For instance it recently hosted a two-part panel discussion about the history of and then the future of the conservative movement.</p>
<p>C-Span often shows live proceedings from the US House or Senate, or it carries in-depth discussions with authors of all political stripes.</p>
<p>It also showed excerpts from two August 28, 2010 rallies in Washington, DC &ndash; the conservative Glenn Beck Restoring Honor rally at the Lincoln Memorial which attracted hundreds of thousands; and the much smaller and angrier Al Sharpton counter-rally across town which attracted just a fraction of the Beck rally but which seemed much more significant because C-Span gave it &lsquo;equal time&rsquo;.</p>
<p>This shows clearly how certain media &ndash; including even &ldquo;nonpartisan&rdquo; C-Span &#8211; distort our view of the world.</p>
<p>C-Span has a policy during guest appearances of taking phone calls from Democrats, Independents and Republicans, each calling on different phone lines and identified as such. And one thing you will notice is that liberals and leftists use their standard disinformation tactics when calling in to C-Span.</p>
<p>It works like this: William Kristol, editor of the conservative <em>Weekly Standard</em>, was recently a guest on C-Span and there was a caller on the &lsquo;independent&rsquo; line. This caller immediately started ranting about how conservatives and Republicans are just shills for the corporations, and that the GOP wants to dismantle Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc. And on and on.</p>
<p>What is wrong with this call?</p>
<p>It is the self-identification of the caller. This sure did not sound like an &lsquo;independent&rsquo; caller. From the nature and angry tone of the call, you could tell that this caller probably was part of a hard-left activist network, the kind of people who surely monitor C-Span and call in routinely.</p>
<p>They often pose as &lsquo;Republicans&rsquo; or &lsquo;independents&rsquo; to cover their real identity when they attack the GOP or conservatives. Because if they said that they were Democrats or liberals, the attacks would have much less impact.</p>
<p>See for yourself. If you see a guest on C-Span and there are callers, watch for a while and you may see the tactic because it seems to be quite common. Indeed listen to callers particularly on the &lsquo;Republican&rsquo; line who say things like &ldquo;I&rsquo;m a Republican but, gee, I don&rsquo;t know about these Republicans. I used to always vote Republican, but I don&rsquo;t know anymore&hellip;&rdquo; and then they will give five reasons why they disagree with Republicans and conservatives.</p>
<p>Now, again, they could legitimately be Republicans and sometimes are, but we also know that this easily could be a deceiver from the Democrat left.</p>
<p>One caller to the Sean Hannity radio show identified herself as a &ldquo;lifelong conservative&rdquo; and a public school teacher from Ohio. She then lambasted the Republican Ohio governor John Kasich for promoting union-restraining policies and predicted that Ohio would vote for Obama in 2012.</p>
<p>But this caller was very likely not a conservative at all. This sounded like a Democrat teacher-union operative or other liberal operative seeking to sway Hannity listeners about what was going on in Ohio through a national forum.</p>
<p>And, again, my charges here cannot be proven, but they are based on what we all know about how liberalism operates. These charges fit into a pattern.</p>
<p>These deceptions are just another standard disinformation tactic of the left. They used to try to do it when they called Rush Limbaugh&rsquo;s program, although the Limbaugh show screens callers much more closely since his program is clearly biased to the conservative side unlike C-Span which is supposed to be nonpartisan.</p>
<p>Meanwhile on the air, Limbaugh can smell a rat right away and sometimes points these fake callers out. He used to refer to them as &#39;seminar callers&#39; because they had attended seminars (or been instructed) on how to get onto a show like Limbaugh&#39;s and pull off the subterfuge. Meanwhile they still do get on C-Span and many other media by misrepresenting themselves.</p>
<p>On October 30, 2010, two C-Span callers in a row to the &lsquo;Republican&rsquo; line described themselves as &quot;an angry Republican who is voting Democrat&quot; or &quot;a former Republican who is voting Democrat this year.&quot; Being just three days before the midterm election, these consecutive calls sure sounded suspiciously alike, particularly with all the predictions for that election being a Republican rout (which it was).</p>
<p>C-Span is not nearly so skeptical of callers&rsquo; stated affiliations as Limbaugh is. It is supposed to be a nonpartisan network that accepts people at their word, which makes it fertile ground for deceivers.</p>
<p>The casual observer may contend that these calls are nothing really, just political hijinks. But in fact they are part of a much bigger national web of subterfuge that keeps Democrats in power by building on baby steps toward their agenda using every deceptive tool in the book.</p>
<p>There is a flip side to this. One caller to the C-Span &lsquo;Republican&rsquo; line started claiming that &quot;Jews run all the banks&quot; before he got cut off. This very likely could have been a shill caller seeking to smear Republicans by using anti-Semitic rhetoric.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t think so? Friends, this is what Democrats do every minute of every day &ndash; they use duplicity, deceit and lies. They manipulate the media in a thousand ways. It is like the incident during the 2008 Democrat convention, when the Democrat headquarters in Denver was vandalized. And the media immediately conjectured that it must have been a conservative, but it turned out to have been an inside job done by a liberal that was intended to put Republicans in a bad light.</p>
<p>This is like the Liberal Media and many left-wing internet crazies &nbsp;immediately blaming Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin for the shooting of congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords simply because Giffords is a Democrat. Yet the shooter turned out to be a drug-abusing, leftist nut who hated Bush.</p>
<p>And the important thing to the leftists was not the ultimate truth, but the short-term advantage of smearing Limbaugh and Palin.</p>
<p>So if they will do that out in the open, just imagine what they will do on a telephone line where nobody knows who they are.</p>
<p>Or how about all the media hounds immediately conjecturing that the Boston Marathon bombers were very likely white, anti-tax protesters since that attack happened on tax day, April 15.</p>
<p>These are all part of an array of&nbsp;leftist tactics used to win political power in any way at any cost including these other tactics:</p>
<p>*intentionally lying in public statements but acting as if you just misspoke. For instance,&nbsp;you might hear a Democrat hypothetically say, &ldquo;I just read that Republicans want to cut $80 million from this government program&rdquo; when the real published number was $8 million, or no cut was proposed at all. This is a common strategy.</p>
<p>*misrepresenting your political positions intentionally. This is like Obama saying you can keep your health insurance when he knows that the Democrat plan under ObamaCare is to make private insurance unaffordable and to push everyone onto the government plan.</p>
<p>*covering for past actions or statements or having the media cover them up. Just look at how the media have covered up over and over for Democrat congressman Barney Frank&rsquo;s staunch defense of Fannie Mae over many years before it collapsed. If it had been a Republican, they would have made a major issue out of it;</p>
<p>*running as fake conservative or Tea Party candidates in order to siphon votes from the Republican. This happened in a special US Congress election in western New York state where a rich Democrat spent lots of his own money running as an independent candidate and calling himself a conservative Tea Partier. He drew enough votes away from the Republican such that the Democrat candidate won the election in a traditionally Republican district;</p>
<p>*stealing elections outright for the Democrats. There are too many examples to count, including big ones like the 1960 presidential election for John F. Kennedy, the worst fraud in American history; the US Senate election in Minnesota in 2008; or the gubernatorial race in Connecticut in 2010. Isn&rsquo;t it amazing how almost all really close elections go to the Democrat&hellip; or to the marxist, like happened in Venezuela after major voter fraud was reported all over the nation in a very close race?</p>
<p>This is because in many states or districts or towns, a Democrat operative who is close with a Democrat town voter registrar both are willing to go to jail if necessary to steal an election.</p>
<p>The operative has a trunkful of ballots in his car, obtained from the registrar right before the election, made out overwhelmingly for Democrats with a few Republican and independent votes thrown in just to make it look like it wasn&rsquo;t a complete put-up job.</p>
<p>And then if&hellip; and only if&hellip; the election result is extremely close, like a few hundred votes, the operative pulls the ballots out of his trunk and says, &ldquo;Oh, look what I found! Look at all these ballots that we haven&rsquo;t counted yet!&rdquo;</p>
<p>This fraud comes on top of routine Democrat fraud (dead people voting, illegal aliens voting, fraudulent vote counts etc.) that can amount to hundreds or thousands of votes or more, depending on the size of the electorate.</p>
<p>This type of ballot fraud happened in November 2008 when several hundred Democrat ballots magically appeared in Minnesota when the US Senate race involving Republican Norm Coleman and Democrat Al Franken was counted as very close. Franken then won by just a few hundred votes. It also happened in a very close gubernatorial election in Washington state in 2004, which a Democrat won, and ditto in Connecticut in 2010. Ditto in a US Senate race in South Dakota in 2002.</p>
<p>Watch the Democrats&#39; ongoing subterfuge from C-Span to the polling place. It is a plan to use any deceptive tactic to increase their power. And unless we call it out every time, they will continue usurping our freedom.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our depression-era president Barack Obama was in Texas twice recently. One picture showed him wearing a cowboy hat. He was touting jobs and the &ldquo;growing&rdquo; American economy and is trying to get more Texans to vote Democrat.</p>
<p>Yet one of the only factors that is keeping the national economy afloat is growth in conservative states like Texas, Georgia and Florida.</p>
<p>Obama is such a fraud: A community organizer from Chicago in a cowboy hat. That would be like Guns n&rsquo; Roses playing in an Orthodox Jewish synagogue.</p>
<p>This president sees the math evolving &ndash; that more and more people are relying on the government and voting Democrat precisely as his policies are making more and more people poor and dependent on the government. It is an intentional strategy and a vicious cycle.</p>
<p>Texas is thriving because it is one of the conservative states that is pursuing policies that are contrary to what Cowboy Obama has implemented nationally.</p>
<p>Yet now Obama is seeking to do to all of America &ndash; including Texas &#8211; what his socialist policies have already done to the failing liberal states like California, Illinois, New York and Vermont, states that are losing populations of younger, productive, skilled and educated people.</p>
<p>Oh sure, the &ldquo;official&rdquo; unemployment rate for the United States has fallen to 7.6% while the stock market has cracked 15,000 for the first time ever.</p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t believe this stuff. It is all a smokescreen. Our Cowboy President and his policies are as fraudulent as his Stetson hat, which, by the way, was black.</p>
<p>Gee, doesn&rsquo;t a black hat mean a bad guy?</p>
<p>Of course it does. The symbolism is appropriate.</p>
<p>Who is thriving in this stock market boom?</p>
<p>Obama&rsquo;s rich friends are, like Al Gore and Bill Gates and Warren Buffett and George Soros, while tens of millions of Americans suffer in a depression, losing ground every month while millions have lost everything.</p>
<p>And the unemployment rate is not 7.6%. It is really 12% to 20% depending on how you measure it and where you live. It is worse for some groups in some places.</p>
<p>So we have the rich getting richer and the poor expanding in number. In March alone there were only 88,000 new jobs created while a whopping 663,000 people dropped out of the labor force and stopped looking for work. This type of math is unsustainable.</p>
<p>Yet what is capitalism always criticized for?</p>
<p>For creating a society of rich and poor. Yet it is Obama socialism that really creates this type of society, as we conservatives have always warned. And to see its inevitable conclusion look at these communist nations where most of the people end up poor, like the Soviet Union where citizens waited in long lines for basics like bread and soap. Meanwhile the communist elites at the top flourish like the late marxist dictator of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, who had a personal fortune estimated at $2 billion.</p>
<p>Now guess how much the &ldquo;rich Republican capitalist&rdquo; former US president George W. Bush is worth today?</p>
<p>Answer: About $30 million&hellip; with an &lsquo;m&rsquo;.</p>
<p>Now guess how much our humble, &ldquo;caring&rdquo; Democrat former president Bill Clinton is worth today?</p>
<p>$125 million. And his Clinton Global Initiative has $500 million in assets.</p>
<p>How much is former Democrat vice president and &lsquo;global warming&rsquo; alarmist Al Gore worth?</p>
<p>$200 million.</p>
<p>The entertainer Cher, the left-wing Follywood kook?</p>
<p>$330 million. Eleven times as much as Bush.</p>
<p>Obama supporter Michael Bloomberg, the nanny-state mayor of New York City?</p>
<p>$11 Billion with a &lsquo;B&rsquo;.</p>
<p>Democrat lover Larry Ellison?</p>
<p>$35 Billion.</p>
<p>Obama sycophant Warren Buffett?</p>
<p>$45 Billion.</p>
<p>Obama supporter Bill Gates?</p>
<p>$52 Billion.</p>
<p>How about &ldquo;filthy-rich Republican&rdquo; George H.W. Bush, who was US president from 1989 to 1993?</p>
<p>Just $25 million&hellip; with an &lsquo;m&rsquo;.</p>
<p>Friends, indeed &ldquo;the rich are getting richer&rdquo; and they are mostly in the Democrat party and on the socialist left, including radical George Soros at $22 billion. And Soros makes his money through pure currency speculation. In other words, he does not create wealth and jobs for others but only gets money for himself in one of the lowest ways possible. George Washington even warned about accumulating wealth through speculation.</p>
<p>At the same time Republican venture capitalist Mitt Romney (estimated net worth is $270 million) created 130,000 jobs through companies he helped to found like Staples and Steel Dynamics. And that was more than 15 years ago before anyone knew who he was.</p>
<p>In fact it is Romney-style free-market capitalism that creates economic growth and a middle class. Always has and always will.</p>
<p>Then look at the Obama &lsquo;stimulus&rsquo; package of 2009. After decades in which &ldquo;the experts&rdquo; told us that we need $1 trillion or $2 trillion in infrastructure repairs to get America rolling again, Obama gave us an $800 billion &lsquo;stimulus&rsquo; and none of it went to fix roads and bridges. It all was funneled to his union cronies and his Democrat friends. It was pure theft.</p>
<p>This is classic socialism &ndash; the common good be damned. And this is why liberal states are declining; because big blocs of Democrat voters including public-employee unions and welfare recipients are taking the wealth that should be going to fix roads and bridges or to be invested in new economic growth.</p>
<p>Obama&rsquo;s very liberal home state of Illinois has one of the worst unemployment rates in America. Chicago, Illinois also is the most violent city in America. Because violence, unemployment and poverty always rise together with socialism.</p>
<p>Isn&rsquo;t socialism supposed to create utopia?</p>
<p>Yes&hellip; in theory. But in practice it creates utopia only for people at the top like Obama, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, George Soros and their socialist cronies.</p>
<p>In Texas, Republican governor Perry has consistently promoted his state as a haven for people who want to work hard and advance themselves.</p>
<p>Yet the Liberal Media and the Democrats have maligned Texas as a backward, redneck haven. But in truth they know what is happening. Texas is thriving with Americans freely and willingly moving there by the millions. Meanwhile an estimated 225,000 people per year are moving out of ultra-lib, Democrat-controlled California.</p>
<p>Here is the frightening thing &#8211; the Democrats know that they have big electoral states in their pocket like California and New York, states that are in serious economic trouble, where productive people, including Republicans, are leaving while more and more of the remaining dependent poor people vote consistently Democrat as budgets explode and taxpayers are crushed.</p>
<p>And so like good socialists the liberals are trying to turn Texas into a Democrat state and to bring down the growing states like Texas rather than elevating the declining states like California. Because it is infinitely easier to tear things down than to build things up.</p>
<p>Here is the socialist strategy in just one phrase &ndash; <strong><em>weaken the strong and strengthen the weak. </em></strong></p>
<p>Meanwhile, it was reported recently that Obama&rsquo;s Internal Revenue Service had flagged conservative political groups like the Tea Parties for additional scrutiny during the 2012 election to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status.</p>
<p>So the Obama template is this &ndash; target taxpaying Tea Parties and other law-abiding, conservative, self-reliant people who pay their own way, but then let the Welfare State run amok, giving away trillions of dollars, leading to debt and stasis. While the rich get richer.</p>
<p>This is Obama&rsquo;s America. And Al Gore&rsquo;s America. And Bill Gates&rsquo; America. And George Soros&rsquo; America. And now they want to make Texas part of it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are several stories that have been in the news lately that are worth thinking about for the way that the Liberal Media have been treating them.</p>
<p>The first was the trial of a woman named Jodi Arias who stabbed her boyfriend to death. Many Liberal Media outlets covered it like it was the Kennedy assassination. Another story concerns one single basketball player who announced that he is a homosexual. This received wall-to-wall coverage for more than a week.</p>
<p>Then on the other hand there was the case of the black abortionist in Philadelphia, Kermit Gosnell, and his &lsquo;house of horrors&rsquo;. The Liberal Media virtually ignored this story because it casts abortion in a bad light. And don&rsquo;t think that this is isolated. That is precisely why the media are refusing to cover it. Because they do not want America to know the truth about the horrible way that abortion is really being done more often than we know.</p>
<p>Then there is the story about the Benghazi consulate attack in Libya on September 11, 2012 in which two Navy SEALs, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, and two consulate officials died. The Obama administration knew it was a terrorist attack that could have been stopped with quick military action.</p>
<p>But Obama and his media cronies are now trying to cover up what really happened in order not to harm our foreign policy chief at the time, former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, because she is going to run for president in 2016.</p>
<p>About the blatant Liberal Media bias in seeking to gloss over the disaster of Benghazi, foxnews.com reported:</p>
<p>NBC said there was an &ldquo;obvious political undercurrent&rdquo; to the (congressional hearings on the Benghazi attack) and accused the GOP of going after the &ldquo;most popular Democrat,&rdquo; Hillary Clinton.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The New York Times public editor criticized her own paper&rsquo;s Benghazi coverage and The Washington Post&rsquo;s Twitter account inexplicably mocked those Tweeting about the case as &ldquo;Chick-fil-A&rdquo; lovers. AP even called it a &ldquo;GOP&rdquo; hearing, to make sure readers saw it as partisan.</p>
<p>A Politico story about CBS showed the truly insidious nature of media bias on this story and how the network held back Emmy award-winning reporter Sharyl Attkisson. &ldquo;CBS News executives see Attkisson wading dangerously close to advocacy on the issue, network sources have told Politico,&rdquo; wrote Dylan Byers. So much so that Attkisson is &ldquo;in talks to leave CBS ahead of contract&rdquo;. As a result, she hadn&rsquo;t even reported on the Libya attack for five months.</p>
<p>It hasn&rsquo;t just been CBS that has been trying to corral this story. New York Times coverage might still damage the administration even though that paper has tried to prevent it. MSNBC&#39;s sometime conservative, former Florida Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough, even Tweeted about Thursday&rsquo;s Times story, saying it &ldquo;should cause great concerns in the White House.&rdquo;</p>
<p>That piece, &ldquo;Diplomat Says Questions Over Benghazi Led to Demotion&rdquo; detailed State Department retaliation against one witness, saying &ldquo;the prospects for the 2016 presidential election&rdquo; could be impacted.&nbsp;(end of foxnews.com excerpt)</p>
<p>Demotions and firings over people trying to report the truth about a terrorist attack? &lsquo;Chick-fil-A lovers&rsquo;?!</p>
<p>Friends, this is our dangerous, demagogic left-wing media seeking to cover up a major story about a significant foreign policy disaster. And this is not isolated. This ties in with other issues like the Boston Marathon bombing and the Fort Hood terrorist attack. Both could have been prevented.</p>
<p>In short, the Obama administration is turning a blind eye to Muslim terrorism here and abroad because Obama is Muslim-friendly.</p>
<p>Meanwhile it was reported recently that Obama&rsquo;s Internal Revenue Service had flagged conservative American political groups like Tea Parties for additional scrutiny to see if they were violating their tax-exempt status.</p>
<p>This is the Obama strategy &ndash; pursue and harass productive Americans but ignore dangerous Muslim extremists.</p>
<p>Meanwhile foxnews.com reported about another story that the media are seeking to ignore:</p>
<p>WASHINGTON &ndash; &nbsp;The families of Navy SEAL Team 6 members killed in a disastrous August 2011 helicopter crash in Afghanistan blamed the (US) government for the tragedy, during an emotional press conference in Washington Thursday.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The family members, speaking at the National Press Club, tried to reopen the book on the crash, in which 30 Americans were killed, most of them belonging to the same unit as those who carried out the raid on Usama bin Laden earlier that year. The helicopter was shot down by insurgents.&nbsp;</p>
<p>During the event organized by a group called Freedom Watch, family members and former military personnel claimed President Obama turned the SEALs group into a Taliban target after the administration revealed they had conducted the bin Laden raid.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Doug Hamburger, whose son Patrick was killed, called the incident an &ldquo;ambush&rdquo; that could have been prevented.&nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;re very concerned that the administration had disclosed that the Navy SEALs had carried out a successful attack on bin Laden&rsquo;s compound resulting in his death. And you know, never before in the history of our county (had) a sitting president released that type of information to the public, especially when he was talking about special forces. Their names and their missions had never been revealed before. And we really feel that this put our guys in an unnecessary risk,&rdquo; Hamburger said.</p>
<p>Many military experts at the time, including some of Obama&rsquo;s top military advisers, had questioned the White House&rsquo;s public praise of SEAL Team 6 and said it put members in danger.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Three months after bin Laden&rsquo;s death, members of the SEAL Team 6 force &#8212; though apparently not the same ones who carried out the bin Laden raid &#8212; were on board the CH-47 Chinook transport helicopter, along with its Army National Guard aircrew, several support personnel and seven Afghan commandos. In all, 38 people died that night after the chopper was shot down by a Taliban-owned rocket-propelled grenade &ndash;or RPG &ndash; over the Wardak Province on Aug. 6, 2011.&nbsp;(end of foxnews.com excerpt)</p>
<p>This was a horrendous tragedy that also was skimmed over by the media when it happened. And immediately after the crash Nikitas3.com called for a full investigation. Because there are so many things that don&rsquo;t add up, including why a slow-moving chopper like a Chinook was loaded up with elite personnel like SEALs and used for a dangerous military raid. Only now is it even being discussed, almost two years later.&nbsp; Most media have ignored it.</p>
<p>But they have focused on a homosexual basketball player for weeks now.</p>
<p>This shows how we are being undermined by our Liberal Media, to make Americans think that important things are trivial and that trivial things are important. This is socialism writ large where, for instance, gay marriage is considered a crucial issue but jobs are lacking for millions and poverty is spreading.</p>
<p>Now here is an amazing Clinton quote from an exchange between Wisconsin Republican US Senator Ron Johnson and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton about the Benghazi attack. Notice the italicized words that show the arrogance of Clinton:</p>
<p><strong>Clinton: &ldquo;</strong>With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they&rsquo;d they go kill some Americans? <em>What difference at this point does it make? </em>It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator.&rdquo; (end of exchange)</p>
<p><em>&ldquo;What difference at this point does it make?&rdquo;</em> This is shocking. A Republican who said such a thing would be targeted for media destruction.</p>
<p>It makes all the difference in the world to those of us seeking to find the truth and to protect our nation, and to the families of those killed in Libya and in the Afghanistan crash. We need leaders whom we can trust, who will not seek to obstruct the truth as Obama&rsquo;s administration seems to be doing routinely.</p>
<p>And it makes all the difference in the world to those who may be thinking about voting for Hillary Clinton for president in 2016. And this is the really big story that the media never will cover.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Middle East is in turmoil and Christians are being threatened, displaced and killed across the region by radical Muslims.</p>
<p>Raymond Ibrahim, a Middle East and Islam specialist, is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center and an associate fellow at the Middle East Forum. He recently wrote in a column on foxnews.com:</p>
<p><span style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>A mass exodus of Christians is currently underway.&nbsp; Millions of Christians are being displaced from one end of the Islamic world to the other.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We are reliving the true history of how the Islamic world, much of which prior to the Islamic conquests was almost entirely Christian, came into being.</p>
<p>The US Commission on International Religious Freedom recently said: &ldquo;The flight of Christians out of the region is unprecedented and it&rsquo;s increasing year by year.&rdquo;&nbsp; In our lifetime alone &ldquo;Christians might disappear altogether from Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt.&rdquo; (end of Ibrahim excerpt)<span id="cke_bm_85E" style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span style="display: none;">&nbsp;</span>Christians and Muslims have worshipped side-by-side peacefully for centuries in the Middle East. But now extreme Islamist thugs and murderers are taking over. These are brutal terrorists and killers who are bent on exterminating anyone who is not a believing Muslim. There are 8 million Coptic Christians in Egypt alone who could be displaced.</p>
<p>Just imagine that we in America started to burn mosques and execute Muslims and force them out. There would be an international uproar. But when Muslims do that en masse to Christians in the Middle East it is barely even reported in the world media or discussed in the United Nations. Because the atheist leftists in the media and the UN turn a blind eye to anti-Christian tyranny.</p>
<p>Indeed Christians are the best and most peaceful people in the world. Christian-based societies in Europe and the United States have given to the world all of its great art, science, technology, freedom, economic advancement and social stability. Meanwhile most Muslim nations are destitute and lacking in basic liberties.</p>
<p>The stories about the targeting of Christians are becoming depressingly common. I know about one story personally: A Christian from Syria told me that his brother has been kidnapped by Islamists and his whereabouts are not known. The family even paid a ransom but the brother was not returned.</p>
<p>Nikitas3.com has advocated for several years now that the United States should never side with any of these &ldquo;rebel&rdquo; or &ldquo;liberation&rdquo; movements in the Middle East, like the Islamists in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia or Syria. Because ultimately they are paving the way for radical Muslims to take over and to displace and kill Christians who, in many cases, have lived in places like Egypt for much longer than Muslims have.</p>
<p>Even the war against Saddam Hussein in Iraq was a mistake. Because more than one million Iraqis have been killed, injured and displaced &ndash; including hundreds of thousands of Christians &ndash; since Hussein was overthrown by US military action. Hussein was a brutal dictator, but he kept Iraq stable, and now we are seeing that the alternative is actually worse.</p>
<p>Reported Mr. Ibrahim on foxnews.com:</p>
<p>The 2010 Baghdad (Iraq) church attack, which saw nearly 60 Christian worshippers slaughtered, is the tip of a decade-long iceberg.</p>
<p>In 2003, Iraq&rsquo;s Christian population was at least one million.&nbsp;Today fewer than 400,000 remain, the result of an anti-Christian campaign that began with the U.S. occupation of Iraq, when countless Christian churches were bombed and countless Christians killed, including by crucifixion and beheading.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, as the U.S. supports the jihad on Syria&rsquo;s secular president Assad, the same pattern has come to Syria: entire regions and towns where Christians lived for centuries before Islam came into being have now been emptied, as the opposition targets Christians for kidnapping, plundering, and beheadings, all in compliance with mosque calls telling the populace that it&rsquo;s a &ldquo;sacred duty&rdquo; to drive Christians away.</p>
<p>In October 2012 the last Christian in the city of Homs which had a Christian population of some 80,000 before jihadis came&mdash;was murdered.&nbsp; One teenage Syrian girl said: &ldquo;We left because they were trying to kill us&hellip; because we were Christians&hellip;.&nbsp; Those who were our neighbors turned against us. At the end, when we ran away, we went through balconies. We did not even dare go out on the street in front of our house.&rdquo; (end of Ibrahim excerpt)</p>
<p>Meanwhile we conservatives predicted that the deposing of pro-American president Hosni Mubarak in Egypt in the &lsquo;Arab Spring&rsquo; uprising of 2011 was a dangerous turning point for that nation.</p>
<p>Yet Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton cheered the overthrow of Mubarak because they are secular, anti-Christian Democrats like US president Jimmy Carter was. Here is Mr. Ibrahim talking about the Coptic Christians in Egypt:</p>
<p>In Egypt, some 100,000 Christian Copts have fled their homeland soon after the &ldquo;Arab Spring.&rdquo;&nbsp; In September 2012, the Sinai&rsquo;s small Christian community was attacked and evicted by Al Qaeda linked Muslims, Reuters reported. But even before that, the Coptic Orthodox Church lamented the &ldquo;repeated incidents of displacement of Copts from their homes whether by force or threat.&rdquo; (end of Ibrahim excerpt)</p>
<p>Here is another fact from Mr. Ibrahim:</p>
<p>Even in European Bosnia, Christians are leaving en masse, &ldquo;amid mounting discrimination and Islamization.&rdquo; &nbsp;Only 440,000 Catholics remain in the Balkan nation, half the prewar figure. &nbsp;(end of Ibrahim excerpt)</p>
<p>This is the long-term outcome of Clinton-era bombing of Christian, pro-Western factions and governments in the former Yugoslavia, which includes Bosnia. And now the Muslims have taken over and are driving the Christians out. This is the &lsquo;ethnic cleansing&rsquo; that the Christians were accused of, and it is a pattern.</p>
<p>Meanwhile the most anti-Christian and anti-American regime of all &ndash; Iran &ndash; was turned over from a stable, pro-American state that was moving toward democracy to an anti-American, anti-Christian and repressive&nbsp; regime under the Islamist mullahs.</p>
<p>This began under Jimmy Carter in an intentional Carter policy. Iran is the source for much of the terrorism in the world today, much of it directed at Christians. Mr. Ibrahim also reported:</p>
<p>In (the African nation of) Mali, after a 2012 Islamic coup, as many as 200,000 Christians fled. According to reports, &ldquo;the church in Mali faces being eradicated&rdquo;, especially in the north &ldquo;where rebels want to establish an independent Islamist state and drive Christians out&hellip; there have been house to house searches for Christians who might be in hiding, churches and other Christian property have been looted or destroyed, and people tortured into revealing any Christian relatives.&rdquo; At least one pastor was beheaded.</p>
<ul>
<li>In Ethiopia, after a Christian was accused of desecrating a Koran, thousands of Christians were forces to flee their homes, when &ldquo;Muslim extremists set fire to roughly 50 churches and dozens of Christian homes.&rdquo;&nbsp;</li>
<li>In the Ivory Coast&mdash;where Christians have literally been crucified&mdash;Islamic rebels &ldquo;massacred hundreds and displaced tens of thousands&rdquo; of Christians.</li>
<li>In Libya, Islamic rebels forced several Christian religious orders serving the sick and needy in the country since 1921, to flee. (end of Ibrahim excerpt)</li>
