It is just a coincidence that Feinstein decided to release her CIA assault on the day that Gruber testified.

CBS News [comes on before Jeopardy in my neck of the woods] did report on the Gruber testimony. I told my wife, “Watch, this is going to be good, ” I was thinking of your post yesterday about, “Elijah Cummings Savages Gruber …” CBS didn’t show it. I should have known they wouldn’t I mean who can forget Dan Rather’s 2004 “60 Minutes” phony letter episode.
I read Saul Alinsky’s rules for radicals from time to time – It helps remind me who these people are. It would be good for anyone confronting these people to be familiar with their thinking. It is not like ours. That was one thing that Reagan did as seen in his book ‘the notes’. He kept notes of what the wise people said as well as the evil.
Saul Alinsky’s 12 Rules for Radicals
Here is the complete list from Alinsky.
* RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. (These are two things of which there is a plentiful supply. Government and corporations always have a difficult time appealing to people, and usually do so almost exclusively with economic arguments.)
* RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone. (Organizations under attack wonder why radicals don’t address the “real” issues. This is why. They avoid things with which they have no knowledge.)
* RULE 3: “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)
* RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)
* RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)
* RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. (Radical activists, in this sense, are no different that any other human being. We all avoid “un-fun” activities, and but we revel at and enjoy the ones that work and bring results.)
* RULE 7: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. (Even radical activists get bored. So to keep them excited and involved, organizers are constantly coming up with new tactics.)
* RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)
* RULE 9: “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist. (Perception is reality. Large organizations always prepare a worst-case scenario, something that may be furthest from the activists’ minds. The upshot is that the organization will expend enormous time and energy, creating in its own collective mind the direst of conclusions. The possibilities can easily poison the mind and result in demoralization.)
* RULE 10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. (Unions used this tactic. Peaceful [albeit loud] demonstrations during the heyday of unions in the early to mid-20th Century incurred management’s wrath, often in the form of violence that eventually brought public sympathy to their side.)
* RULE 11: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem. (Old saw: If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Activist organizations have an agenda, and their strategy is to hold a place at the table, to be given a forum to wield their power. So, they have to have a compromise solution.)
* RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)
There are no coincidences in Politics.
The Democrat party has the distinct odor of Treason.
I have tried comment here twice before. This is a test.
+10000
Actually D.C. has had that odor since 1913 when they gave the USA to the international banking interest.
See the connection between the Fabians and the bankers HERE
I found this on the internet and since the Fabians are the greatest danger to the USA, I thought it was useful to see what their objectives are and how well they have been met via their creeping socialism.
What the page numbers are in reference to was not given but the internet helped:
The essays are on line HERE (I strongly suggest at least skimming through the essays.) It is difficult to link to the objectives above because the page numbers are missing. The Preface to the American Edition, by H. G. Wilshire gives some but not all of the goals.
Within the text the goals are not very clearly stated but you can see them if you read between the lines. For example 1. Diminishing and then eliminating private ownership of property (p. 16)
Page 16 in Original Table of Contents refers to The Period of Anarchy.
So, yes I can see how that boils down to Diminishing ownership of property.

This essay is worth reading in it’s entirety.
Actually the Author is incorrect. See E. M. Smith’s comment:

As only the Poms can!
I saw Cheryl’s take on Agenda 21. Canada is lucky to have her. Haven’t been over to E. M Smith’s lately. He went off to a job in Florida and wasn’t posting much.
If you want the real dirt on Common Core try Robin’s site. He is a Lawyer who has really dug into the documents and such. Sort of a Steve McIntyre of Common Core.
Here are a few links. ( I wish he had a better index of contents.)

Oh, I should mention I have been trying to figure out the history behind the moves we have seen.
There is a direct link between the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, and the Royals with Agenda 21. Ged Davis wrote the scenarios for the IPCC. He was lead author and also a VP of Shell. Davis’s fourth Scenario is Sustainable Development (B1) That is your Agenda 21.

I believe that’s an Orwell Quote. Churchill probably just used it, and properly applied.
I’d have to guess it’s been said in many different ways by many different people for many millennia. It’s kind of a fundamental truth in the animal kingdom.
torture is so yesterday…..just drone them <irony
Hey they even said that some were slammed against the wall. I remember when my high school principal used to do that, always seemed to be into a locker so the smash was very loud, followed by some distinct yelling.
Our principal used the ruler smacked across the hands in front of the whole class.
Only took about one snack every couple of years or so to keep the high school kids in line. Now if a teacher or principal tried that he would likely end up dead or in prison.
Using that Churchill quote to justify torture is pure bs. These men were our prisoners, and incapable of doing us harm. And at least 22 of them were completely innocent. Churchill was himself completely opposed to torturing prisoners. He completely backed the prosecution of those who used torture during WWII. So if you really want to invoke Churchill here, it would be in support of prosecuting those in our government who approved, ordered, and carried out these infamous deeds.
The ‘yesterday’ remark was about Bush – U.N. Official: CIA and Bush Administration Officials Should Be Prosecuted for Torture
And the Drone remark about Obama – More than 2,400 dead as Obama’s drone campaign marks five years and Four U.S. citizens killed in Obama drone strikes, but 3 were not intended targets
Some of us Yanks are not very happy about our government over the last few presidents. I can think of four I would like to see placed on trial.
Man I don’t know if it has anything to do with it but the border going into Windsor Canada was terrible at certain times Tues and Wed. Trucks backed up across the Ambassador bridge all the way through the US customs side onto I-75. Ridiculous! Sometimes when I have seen or been caught up in such crap I have thought that maybe the Mexican truck drivers are on to something. When things get too screwed up and stay that way to long they’re liable to react en mass by turning off their trucks getting out and walking away with the keys. It seems to get the message across to the authorities that they aren’t really the ones driving the train.
