You won't believe what Obama's cooking up now...

Phony Left/Right Paradigm
The White House has named the Obamas' personal Chicago cook as 'Senior Policy Adviser for Healthy Food Initiatives.'..."It's no joke, even though it sounds like a bad one. The Chicago chef's rapid ascension has been kept under the radar for the last month," Judicial Watch said. "Sam Kass went from being a 20-something, Windy City gourmet cook -- privately paid by the Obamas to feed them -- to big-time White House adviser in a matter of months," the report said. But it makes sense, the report said, since Michelle Obama has claimed that childhood obesity is a threat to "national security."

Future of the News

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 10:09:33 -0700

PR/Propaganda
Discussions underway at the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission point toward a dangerous new effort to regulate what Americans read and hear. The takeover under discussion would apply across the board to print media, radio and television, and the internet. The result of proposed regulations would be nothing less than an end to free speech in America. ..The FTC and FCC proposals are convoluted and numerous, but the net effect is to subsidize liberal news while taxing and restricting conservative media. This dangerous censorship is disguised as a well-intentioned program to "save the news." In fact, it is little different from the sort of limitation of free speech that is practiced in every totalitarian dictatorship.

New Eugenics and the Rise of the Global Scientific Dictatorship

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 10:07:03 -0700

Eugenics
War, genocide, persecution and human degradation are directly the result of decisions made by those who control the apparatus of power, whether the power manifests itself as intellectual, ecclesiastical, spiritual, militaristic, or scientific. The most malevolent and ruthless power is that over the free human mind: if one controls how one thinks, they control the individual itself. The greatest human achievements are where individuals have broken free the shackles that bind the mind and let loose the inherent and undeniable power that lies in each and every individual on this small little planet.
