First Obama learns a lesson from Nixon on falsely blaming speculators for what were really "Fed" intervention effects in the marketplace. Now Obama is learning a lesson from Nixon's 18½ minute gap Watergate tape.

In an interview with PBS, Mr Panetta said: "Once those teams went into the compound I can tell you that there was a time period of almost 20 or 25 minutes where we really didn't know just exactly what was going on. And there were some very tense moments as we were waiting for information. We had some observation of the approach there, but we did not have direct flow of information as to the actual conduct of the operation itself as they were going through the compound."

A photograph released by the White House appeared to show the President and his aides in the situation room watching the action as it unfolded. In fact they had little knowledge of what was happening in the compound:



Read the rest of Panetta's remarks about how the "crack" Navy SEALs murdered an unarmed crime suspect. Oh, and the latest revision to this tall tale is that Obama didn't order the killing of bin Laden. That Solomonic decision was made by the Navy SEALs themselves.

I take no pleasure in saying this, but I don’t believe it.

It is a sad state of affairs that we have reached the point where you can’t believe anything you hear. In fact, you can’t even believe what you see.

Call me whatever name you want to, ridiculing me won’t shut me up. The truth is you just can’t believe it any more.

It, you say. What is it?

Everything…anything…you just can’t believe it anymore. Modern-day America is just one big pack of lies, told by a cadre of liars.

I’m sorry…whatever it is…I don’t believe it.

How about you? Do you believe them? Do you believe the malarkey they are trying to feed us?
I’m not sure which makes me angrier…the lying…or them thinking I am dumb enough to believe the lies.

That’s why I have adopted a new position; A variation of Ronald Reagan’s “Trust but verify” philosophy.

I don’t trust until I verify. That’s my new motto.

They tell us that:

• Bin Laden is dead.
• They buried him in the ocean.
• He was unarmed.
• We can’t handle the pictures.
• That terrorism is crippled.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They tell us that:

• Obama was born in America.
• His birth certificate is authentic.
• He loves America.
• He is eligible to be President.
• He loves Jesus more than Mohammed.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

The want us to believe that:

• Republicans are for smaller government.
• Republicans want to stop abortion.
• Republicans are for the free market.
• Republicans believe in individual liberty.
• Republicans are better than Democrats.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They tell us:

• The economy is improving.
• The dollar is strong.
• Don’t buy silver and gold.
• The stock market is safe.
• The bankers are honest.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They tell us that Secular Jews:

• Don’t control the media.
• Don’t control Hollywood.
• Don’t control the financial systems of the world.
• Aren’t behind the ACLU and SPLC.
• Are a discriminated, powerless minority and if I speak out I am anti-Semitic.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They want us to believe:

• Our schools are doing a great job.
• We need to spend more on education.
• Higher education is not controlled by communists.
• The Department of Education improves education.
• Our students haven’t been purposefully dumbed-down.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They have tried to convince us that:

• Individual gun ownership makes us less safe.
• The courts can be trusted.
• Judges are impartial.
• Our elections are honest and the voting machines are tamper proof.
• Every vote counts and all votes are counted.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They have tried hard to sell us the idea that:

• Fox News is fair and balanced.
• Bill O’Reilly is looking out for you.
• Hannity is not a Republican cheerleader.
• Limbaugh doesn’t carry Republican water.
• Fox News is not controlled by the Saudis.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They have tried to convince us that:

• Homosexuality is normal.
• Women don’t regret their abortions.
• Planned Parenthood is good for women.
• Our tax dollars don’t fund abortions.
• God is ambivalent about child-killing.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

They want us to believe that:

• Our elected officials go to Washington to serve us.
• They follow the Constitution.
• Power doesn’t corrupt.
• There is a right to health care but not a right to life.
• There are honest people in Washington.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

Pastors tell us that:

• The rapture is going to rescue us.
• God is love and does not believe in judging.
• Government schools are good for Christian kids.
• We should stay out of politics.
• If we send them $100, God will send us $1000.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it.

Never in American history have so many lies been told by so many, so often, about so much.

I don’t trust until I verify. Turn on your truth-detector.

Wake up. No one is looking out for you.

US Aggression Againt Libya

Did it have anything to do with Gaddafi's plans for a gold dinar to rival the fiat dollar?

Real Cause for Gaddafi's Expulsion: Wanted Gold Currency?
Thursday, May 05, 2011 – by Russia Today

Some believe it [the NATO/US-led Libyan invasion] is about protecting civilians, others say it is about oil, but some are convinced intervention in Libya is all about Gaddafi's plan to introduce the gold dinar, a single African currency made from gold, a true sharing of the wealth.

Gaddafi did not give up. In the months leading up to the military intervention, he called on African and Muslim nations to join together to create this new currency that would rival the dollar and euro. They would sell oil and other resources around the world only for gold dinars.

It is an idea that would shift the economic balance of the world.

"If Gaddafi had an intent to try to re-price his oil or whatever else the country was selling on the global market and accept something else as a currency or maybe launch a gold dinar currency, any move such as that would certainly not be welcomed by the power elite today, who are responsible for controlling the world's central banks," says Anthony Wile, founder and Chief Editor of the Daily Bell.

"So yes, that would certainly be something that would cause his immediate dismissal and the need for other reasons to be brought forward from moving him from power."

And it has happened before.

In 2000, Saddam Hussein announced Iraqi oil would be traded in euros, not dollars. Some say sanctions and an invasion followed because the Americans were desperate to prevent OPEC from transferring oil trading in all its member countries to the euro.

A gold dinar would have had serious consequences for the world financial system, but may also have empowered the people of Africa, something black activists say the US wants to avoid at all costs.

Some say the US and its NATO allies literally could not afford to let that happen.

When Liars Murder A Dead Man

When Liars Murder A Dead Man
Written by Becky Akers

Let us pretend for a moment that the United States’ government ­ which we’ve caught in lethal lie after lie, whose financial credit is as shaky as the that of the homeowners its malfeasance forced into foreclosure, and whose worldwide empire relies on deception, torture and secret prisons ­ is finally and unprecedentedly telling the truth.

This blatantly unreliable source has long insisted that Osama bin Laden was the brains and bank behind 9/11. It now further alleges that despite repeated reports of his death or at least renal failure and other poor health, he nonetheless flourished in Pakistan. U.S. Navy Seals killed him there in a firefight Sunday.

Okaaaaaaay. I’m trying to figure out exactly which legal, constitutionally declared war counts him as a casualty. Because otherwise, the Feds murdered him.

Apologists for the American Empire might finesse the crime as an “execution.” But for what? No court of law ever tried or convicted Osama for 9/11’s atrocities; indeed, the Feds are unable to convince a substantial percentage of their own subjects that he pulled off the attack, so how likely is it their “evidence” would have withstood a jury’s scrutiny?
 
I’m also trying -- but sadly failing -- to understand why it’s wrong for someone to have murdered 3,000 folks on 9/11 but heroic for the Feds to murder Osama, three men, and one woman on 5/1, let alone all the others their illegal, unconstitutional wars have massacred.

Alas, politicians who smeared anyone protesting their communism a few years ago as a “ domestic terrorist” now tar us as “[in]decent” for questioning their right to murder -- or the fact that they murdered at all, given the lack of a body.
 
This according to that arbiter of decency, Mike Huckabee. Perhaps your parents raised you to believe no decent person speaks ill of the dead or glories in the eternal damnation of a human being; Mike apparently missed that lesson: “ Today Americans and decent people the world over cheer the news that madman, murderer and terrorist Osama Bin Laden is dead,” he gloated. “… It has taken a long time for this monster to be brought to justice. Welcome to hell, bin Laden.”
 
But that’s not all: Mike’s happy Our Rulers “brought” “this monster” “to justice.” He thereby warbles a common chorus. Also rejoicing at the “justice” of murder are Comrade Obama; Mr. Neocon Himself, Rudy Giuliani; our former führer, George Bush; playboy Bill Clinton; and corporatist Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio).
 
Another guy thrilled with the U.S.’s decline from “land of the free” to “home of the Godfathers” is Tim Pawlenty, the presidential candidate who wants a shot at all of us after dictating to Minnesotans: “ This is terrific news for freedom and justice. … Today, justice is done, but the fight against radical Islamic terrorism is not yet over.”
 
Of course it isn’t. Indeed, more astute neocons than Tim have assured us that the War on [So-Called] Terrorists [Who, Surprisingly Enough, Usually Turn Out To Be Former Allies No Longer Toeing the Line], like the One on Drug Users, will never end. Nor will the sexual assault at airports, the PATRIOT Act’s domestic spying, the tireless federal efforts to tag us with a national ID, or the other onslaughts against freedom that supposedly “protect” us from the terrorism that the Feds’ foreign meddling provokes. And now the murderers self-servingly fret that their slaughter of a man many Muslims admired might anger them enough to attack us. You guessed it: another excuse to steal more liberties. Indeed, “ Rep. C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger (D-Md.) the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee,” concentrated the threat ­ and, obviously, any response to it ­ right here on the ol’ Homeland: " My concerns are the homegrown terrorists right now."
 
Meanwhile, behold Our Rulers’ utter contempt for us in the silly, totally unbelievable lies they continue spewing. They dumped Osama’s body at sea? Oh, pu-leeeezzzze. Next they’ll claim they made the corpse walk the plank first. Not only did they allegedly exterminate their victim roughly 750 miles from the nearest body of salt water, but “a myriad of state and federal laws” regulate pitching the dead into Davy Jones’s locker. “Penalties for violating these laws are oppressive” ­ at least for you and me.
 
Imagine the disgust an earlier “terrorist” would feel for his murderous successors. George Washington took command of a mob of militia the British Empire condemned every bit as much as Our Rulers condemn Al-Qaeda. In both cases, the justice of the respective causes counted for nothing: only the combatants’ tactics mattered.
 
The farmers who shot at the British Army as it retreated from skirmishes in Lexington and Concord one fine day in April 1775 fired at those Redcoats from behind rocks and trees, sheds and fences. This was not only rebellion: it was murder in an age when governments defined “warfare” as armies advancing on one another across fields, firing volleys in the open, not from cover. This insanity arose from the musket’s technology: since the barrel wasn’t rifled, the shooter couldn’t control his ball’s path. Soldiers simply held the musket in front of them and fired without aiming. They mowed down opponents because the kings directing European warfare homicidally forced tight ranks of their serfs to march into that wall of death.
 
Americans sensibly disdained this royal tradition. Amateurs with inferior weapons evened the odds of challenging armed professionals by firing under cover.
 
Though this saved American lives, Britain and other nations would dismiss the colonists’ defense of liberty as mere murder until the Continental Army fought pitched, scripted battles like everyone else. So Gen. Washington and Baron von Steuben spent much energy and the horrific winter at Valley Forge training free Americans to stand, fight, and die à la European vassals.
 
Thanks partly to accidents of geography and timing -- accidents that don’t bless Muslim countries today -- this strategy succeeded. Americans defeated the British Army at its own game and won international recognition as an independent nation.
 
Muslims who want to free their countries from the American Empire may want to take a lesson and quit blowing up the taxpayers forced to finance the oppression.
 
I leave you with a happy thought from Mike Huckabee, of all people: “Let us all hope that [Osama’s] demise will serve notice … that the United States will be relentless in tracking down and terminating those who would inflict terror, mayhem and death on any of our citizens."

No one inflicts more terror, mayhem and death on us than our own government. Track down and terminate away!
