Politicians: Promoters or Representatives
2008-06-06 23:38:00
Polls are showing that a majority of people favour a ‘NO’ vote for Lisbon. The press is presenting this as a crisis for Brian Cowen.

The crisis arises because all mainstream politicians are ...

More Needless Fuss Over Celebrities Smoking On Screen
2008-05-18 20:56:00
After Amitabh Bachchan, NOTE-India (National Organization For Tobaco Erradication) & the health Minister Anbumani Ramdoss are to now sue Shahrukh Khan over smoking in public. Well, SRK forgot that since he is such a big celebrity, he has to devote his entire life to setting good examples for the public. During the match between his Knights and the Mumbai Indians in which his knights were R.A.P.E.D, he [SRK] was snapped chain smoking cigarettes openly as his Multi Million $ cricketing team got out for a meagre 67 runs. Now NOTE is crying foul once again over this. Their argument: SRK should instead have behaved like a true sportsman by trying to raise the morale of his team, instead he himself got bogged down himself and smoked in full public view.Personally, I feel that stars like Shahrukh khan are humans themselves and have their own private lives in which they can do what they like, they did not come on this planet with a single purpose of living for the public. Last time, NOT...

DC Madam to Washington politicians commits suicide by hanging herself follo
2008-05-02 04:33:00
Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the so-called "D.C. Madam" who was convicted last month of running an escort service that catered to Washington's political elite, killed herself near her mother's home in Florida:The body of Deborah Jeane Palfrey was found in a shed near her mother's home about 20 miles northwest of Tampa. Police said the 52-year-old Palfrey left at least two suicide notes and other writings to her family in a notebook, but they did not disclose their contents. Palfrey apparently hanged herself with nylon rope from the shed's ceiling. Her mother discovered the body.Blanche Palfrey had no sign that her daughter was suicidal, and there was no immediate indication that alcohol or drugs were involved, police Capt. Jeffrey Young said. I think most suicides are  planned well in advance and normally the suicide victim does their best to disguise any suicidal ideations. They don't want to jeopardize "the plan". In another strange twist, one of the esco...

Making the News: Going after Politicians for Following the Law
2008-04-27 16:50:00
by Akiva at Mystical PathsA study released about a month ago statistically confirmed what many of us knew, 40% of news reports in Israel aren't news, they're opinion (the reporter is making them up to present his/her position). This is blatently clear from reading websites such as YNetnews or Haaretz.It gets worse when they specifically go after someone, and if they can't find the merest excuse or example of lawbreaking (such as having spit on the sidewalk once 10 years ago), they'll try to make one up. This was recently the case with Bibi Netanyahu, who they went after for making a trip to London where the accommodations were paid for by the trip sponsor. Besides this not actually being illegal, the trip was requested by the Israeli government and for Israeli PR purposes. And, as anyone who watches Israeli PR knows, Netanyahu is about the only Israeli politician who has the slightest clue how to speak to the Western press. In the end the issue faded because, well, there wa...

Umm? Those Lines Weren?t Cherry-Picked - Wright?s Whole Sermon Was Hateful
2008-04-27 04:03:00
Gateway Pundit Moyers was able to accidentally do us all a favor and settle the “Wright’s hateful words were cherry-picked” argument. They weren’t. (pictured is damage inflicted on Obama campaign) Moyers aired the whole America-hating sermon of Wright G-damning America. The whole rant was hateful, bitter, looney, and raging. If you’re not ready for some of the most insidious ...

Note to Republican Politicians, Compromise does not Make You Better
2008-04-22 03:04:00
I just saw a commercial where Nancy Pelosi and Newt Gingrich sit on a couch together and advocate “Climate Change” legislation. The funny thing is that we have not had a warming period for almost a decade. In fact most long term climate studies that propose a “Global Warming” scenario end in the 1990’s, which coincidently ...
Redefining ?Swiftboating? and Rewriting History

AmericanThinker.com - By Henry P. Wickham, Jr. Despite their short-term relevance to the 2008 presidential campaign, this current misuse and redefinition of swiftboating are far more than just semantic developments.  Words and their meanings, like ideas, have consequences.  Here, there is a very real and conscious strategy involved with the redefinition of this word. It entails ...
