CNN says that you are making the Marshall Islands disappear.
You’re making this island disappear – CNN.com
Sea level at the Marshall Islands has been plummeting for several years, and is now about the same as it was in the 1950s.
The level of stupid on display by John D. Sutter is off the charts. And he is not alone.
Mr. deBrum’s focus is squarely on the West’s wallets
Rising Sea Levels; now serves as a trap for Climate Extremists. With most Harbors of the World showing an almost static situation; only a corrupted Media could regurgitate such “rising” lies…
Islanders leaving? Really?

Obama quietly signed the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement in New Zealand. The White House tried to minimize it because it knows the public isn’t pleased with the deal.

May that whole sleazy bunch of traitors rot in Dante’s ninth He!!
“Left wing” sort of vaguely suggests nonreligious looters, whereas “right wing” sort of conjures up prohibitionist looters wild-eyed with mystical religious zealotry. On these climate talks “rich nations” really means non-communist or non-socialist, and “emerging” or “undeveloped” actually refer to collectivist dictatorships or, at best, heavily-mixed economies crusted over with the parasites Adam Smith called “unproductive hands.” Translation: water vapor in atmosphere means noncommunists must make involuntary transfer payments to communist dictatorships.
Prohibition was a product of the Progressives, and not a right wing religious movement. As leftists often do, they coopted the churches to advance their agenda.
Historical myths sometimes die a slow death. One myth long held by Americans and many of their historians is that prohibition was a singularly conservative measure, promoted primarily by fanatical rural drys. In this little book, a happy combination of good scholarship and good writing, James Timberlake has snuffed out this notion by finding, as it were, the proper home for prohibition. He argues that prohibition was an integral part of progressivism; indeed, it was one of the more important (and least understood) reforms of the Progressive movement. Essentially a middle-class reform, deeply rooted in the American reform tradition, prohibition cut across geographic and class lines. It was successfully stitched into the Constitution, not merely because of the astute tactics of the Anti-Saloon League, but fundamentally because it was buttressed by the moral, economic, social, and political idealism of progressivism itself.

Learn something new everyday! Thanks Gator!
Nice find Gator, though I can not say I am surprized. At one point The Church was one of the pillars of the Left., along with the Media and Acadamia.
The Regressives are liars and cheats and have been rewriting history faster than Winston Smith. It is part of their Political Gaslighting of the US voters and used to make those who pay attention unsure as the past keeps changing. It also makes those who pay attention look crazy to the low info types. We have certainly seen this in the CAGW battle.
On the lying and cheating front I came across some intreresting articles (Don’t know if any is true)
Disinformation 101 A bit on the kooky side but it looks like they may have some decent information too.
Bots Are Now 61% Of Internet Users – disinformation
BUSTED! Police Trace IP of White House Disinfo Operatives!
If your on face book you already have made it clear by that action that communication is more important to you than security.
RAH,
There is no way in Hades I would be on Facebook or Twitter. But how many low-info types understand exactly what Facebook and Twitter are doing?
Many of the articles I want to comment on demand I get a Facebook account first so there is certainly presure to sign-up. A lot of teens and women signup as a way of communicating with friends and have ZERO idea of what it means.
Now employers are demanding your Facebook and Twitter information so they can vet your opinions before hiring. If you don’t have accounts then of course they can ‘legitimately’ pass you over as ‘unsociable’ and/or paranoid.
Are people being herded? Of course. The elite want to have you living in a fishbowl where they can manipulate you easily. If you resist they deny you a living.
Twitter is a phenomenal tool for conservatives to get their message directly to the right people.
Tony,
We looked into Facebook and you have to reveal all your personal info. Is Twitter the same?
With my little business we CAN NOT have a connection between us and our place because of major safety issues. We have already had enough problems with stolen and dead stock. We do not want to come home to a dead or hurt child.
I would love to be able to comment via twitter if I don’t have to reveal my location and business.
Gail, you do not have to ‘reveal all your personal information’ to have a facebook account. Many users have pseudonyms or fake names, and reveal little or nothing or wholly concocted info. in the way of personal information. Though by so doing, it limits your findability by friends from the past or distant relations. You can also limit what information you want seen as well as who can see what posts you make. Users who blindly post everything as public are the ones hanging it all out there and are most at risk. So you could create a pseudonymic account, but these sites that require FB for your comments?… Your comments would be under that pseudonym, and not as Gail. OTOH, for facebook pages created for a business, or an artist or performer, all posts you make are by default public and cannot be limited to friends or any subset thereof. FYI FWIW
I think your fears are somewhat everdone Gail. I have a FB account and have reconnected with people I years ago had thought I would never hear from again.
it is amazing.
And privacy settings are as described by Electric Dog.
You do not have to disclose anything you do not want to. You can select your audience for every thing you post, from public to a single person or no one at all. And make changes whenever you want.
Privacy on FB has evolved tremendously since I first signed up in 2009.
I have no privacy issues whatsoever.
And some people who I would like to know what they are up to have done likewise, and i cannot see anything they post…so I have it from both sides and know that it is airtight if you are careful. And you only have to be careful once…once set, your stuff will remain the way you set it until you change it…all new posts will be automatically as private as you want, or you can choose to set them one by one.
Plus, you can block anyone you want, and a blocked person cannot see anything you write or comment on, even on a mutual friends page for example.
I have some friends who have blocked each other, and they see only one side of a conversation. It can be comical.
Of course, they make money by ads and using your info to target whatads you see, and what posts you see on your news feed. But you can alter it if you do not like what you see or if you want to see more of a particular sort of thing.
Don’t worry, be happy!
Thanks for the info on facebook and Twitter guys. We will look into it again.
I have known many adults who never drink, or who really don’t like to drink (but may do so if pressured.)
But despite this fact, I’ve never had anyone express to my face that they think alcoholic beverages should be civilly banned. I understand that it’s out there, but in 30+ years of listening to people, I’ve never encountered it.
I think that today, among professing Christians, true believers of such an idea are less than one in 200,000. They are the fringe of the fringe of the fringe, and they have been so since probably the early 1940s, if not earlier. They pose no political threat whatsoever any more, nor will they ever again, regardless of how they’re reacted to (or not).
Now, that said, does the fact that I don’t believe in Prohibition mean that I consider it all right for people to be intoxicated? No, it doesn’t. But that’s a moral position, and not one regarding civil law.
It’s very upsetting to me that so few people are willing to acknowledge such a distinction when discussing issues with those they disagree with. The two positions I hold are entirely mutually consistent, and they’re both conservative positions. There’s nothing dictatorial or Progressive about those views. All I do is exercise my freedom of speech, like everyone else can and does. And for that, and because of hatred of what I believe in, I’m continually smeared as authoritarian, tyrannical, crazy, a liar, brainwashed by Progressives; numerous lies are believed about me. The views I share are sometimes compared to excrement. I’ve been made the subject of fatwas that don’t appear to apply to very many others, if any. I know the reason for such things.
If you’re in search of authoritarianism, tyranny, and political Globalism, such is where you’ll mostly find it today.
Richard, it comes down to personal freedom and being treated as a reasoning adult instead of being treated as a child/serf or worse livestock.
That is why I am so livid over the treatment Ted Cruz dished out to the Iowa caucus. He treated them as LIVESTOCK not equals.
This is especially noticeable in that he was willing to apologize to Ben Carson for his dirty tricks because he sees Carson as an equal. However Cruz would NOT apologized to the Iowa voters. This dispite the fact he invaded their privacy and broke the law.
Iowa Election Law
Found on page 82 — Intimidation
To me that says he does not have the moral charater I want in a president.
Gail, I think what you are talking about came from CNN, was picked up by some of the Cruz political operatives, and spread. I do not think it correct to make more of it then that.
David A says: “..Gail, I think what you are talking about came from CNN, was picked up by some of the Cruz political operatives, and spread….”
……………….
First CNN is saying they did not say Carson was quiting only that he was headed to Florida for clothes and then back north. (See below)
You need to step back and actually see the strings that are being pulled. The MSM is in no way independent. The Elite are pulling the strings of the media and of almost all of the candidates. This is the point I am trying to make.
The Economic Forum at Davos was all about getting rid of Trump. And Martin Sorrell who can yank half of the MSM advertising dollars wants him GONE! link
Just for an example take the incestuous relationship at Fox news. Mygan Kelly has been gunning for Trump from day one. Bill Sammon of Fox News does the debate formatting. And guess who Bill Sammon’s daugher works for? Brooke Sammon, is Marco Rubio’s Press Secretary!
Then there is Mark Levin. Levin was finally forced to admit the son of his fiance’ is a full time staffer for Senator Ted Cruz.
Who owns Fox News? Murdoch and his buddy Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal. Murdoch is also co-chair of the open borders group, the Partnership for a New American Economy (PNAE). PNAE was one of biggest supporters of Marco Rubio and the Gang of 8 Immigration Reform Bill/Amnesty push. They flooded the airways and media with pro- immigration reform propaganda.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal bailed out Citigroup and is One of the largest shareholders. “Over the last two decades, he has swooped in with tons of cash to aid various companies and superstars at their low points, including London’s Canary Wharf, Citigroup, EuroDisney, Apple, Donna Karan (the company), and Michael Jackson, to name but a few.”
THe CEO of CNN used to work for Citigroup and the top holders of stock are Financiers. In the The Network of Global Corporate Control those companies are:
VANGUARD GROUP INC —- #8 on the list.
JPMORGAN CHASE & CO —- #6 on the list.
STATE STREET CORP —- #5 on the list.
CNN is owned by Time Warner and 32 out of 34 Time Warner lobbyists in 2013-2014 have previously held government jobs. Fox News is in the top five donors to the Clinton campaign and CNN has also donated $$$$ to the Democrats.
Regarding Left and Right, how many people know that the Scopes trial (the “Monkey Trial”) did not pit Left against Right, but Left against Left?
Quite correct!
Unfortunately Rand Paul isn’t off the hook on this deal. (I really wanted to be able to vote for the guy.) Remember that the World Trade Organization did not have China originally but it took less than a decade to get China signed on. With TPP the ease of adding countries is built in.
From the US Government Summary:
Here is Rand Paul blowing smoke in the voters face while carrying water for the globalists.
Los Angles Times: Rand Paul drops the mic on Donald Trump over China’s participation in trade deal
IF Rand Paul had actually read that damn treaty, he should have known it is very easy to ADD another country and the ‘No China” gambit was the exact same chess move Clinton played to get the World Trade Organization treaty ratified.
Is Rand really that dumb? Or is he FOR CHINA
So yeah, it looks like Rand is FOR CHINA.
Rand Paul’s paragraph is straight out of the Progressive play book on Interdependence one of Al Gore’s favorite issues. SEE: Dale C. Copeland, “Economic Interdependence and War: A Theory of Trade Expectations,” International Security, Vol. 20, no.4 (Spring 1996) for exactly how dangerous Interdependence is.
And I have certainly shown here how dangerous China is to the USA. link and link, and China military buildup not to mention Clinton’s sell out of US military technologies. link
And that doesn’t even get into the economic damage done to the USA by our current one sided ‘free trade’ agreements.
2012 – Economic Policy Institute The China toll: Growing U.S. trade deficit with China cost more than 2.7 million jobs between 2001 and 2011, with job losses in every state
More on USA losing out economically to China:
http://www.epi.org/?s=china
So why the heck is Rand promoting the idea of ‘Free trade’ in general and the USA/China trade in particular is a great for the USA?
Actually ‘Left Wing’ and ‘Right Wing’ are the dog and pony show for the Great Unwashed. The real issue is freedom and a government that protects the rights of the individual or serfdom where the serf exists to serve the state aka the aristocracy/elite.
Here is a more bit of background: (I have been digging around the internet for the last several days.)
I am starting with a more obvious article by Martin Wolf.
A bit about Financial Times associate editor Martin Wolf
Wolf got a job in 1971 at the World Bank, In 1987, after working for six years at a pro-free-trade think tank in London, Wolf was courted by Sir Geoffrey Owen, then editor of the Financial Times. For nine years, he wrote with no byline, occasionally advocating stances he did not espouse, which rankled after his experience at the World Bank. Finally, in 1996, Wolf was given his own column on international economics. the current crisis has reawakened Wolf’s dread of the 1920s and ’30s As a result, he has swung back toward Keynes–closer to his ideological root.
To understand Wolf’s influence, one must first understand his audience. They are dedicated Financial Times readers, and Financial Times readers are some of the top earners, spenders, and decision-makers in the world. “I’m writing for the people who are doing these things, who are running these things, both governmental and politicians and financiers,”
Stolen from https://newrepublic.com/article/69326/call-the-wolf
In the article The economic losers are in revolt against the elites Wolf writes
(You can find an excerpt at http://upload.democraticunderground.com/1280104613 )
This is where all the “Trump is another Hitler” crap originates. It is the nationalism, patriotism that is the concern of the Global Elite and they use Hitler’s nationalism to frighten the masses.
A bit of recent history that should look very familiar since it describes what we see today.
Proffesor Carroll Quigley, was a member of Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and mentor to Bill Clinton. He researched the Milner Round Tables, like CRF and the Committee on Economic Development, for twenty years. He included that research in his book Tragedy and Hope, (1966)
As we know, because CAGW is one of the whips, the globalist agenda has been advancing at full speed with no real opposition since the elite own BOTH parties as Quigley suggested above.
“The Rockefeller File” by Gary Allen January 1976 Forty years ago. Sound familiar?
What is really scary is the elite no longer even bother denying a ‘New World Order’ is their goal any more.
The Trans Pacific Partnership, that I have been yammering about lately is a major step in this ‘Global Governance’ plan. It not only opens the USA to unrestricted immigration it makes ALL US treaties and presidential agreements dominant over US law.
“There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters” ? Daniel Webster
I do not have the quote to hand, but it is those who govern out of ‘concern ‘ who are the worse type of dictator because they will invade every aspect of your life and never rest. DIctators in it for the money are not nearly as bad because their focus is only on robbing you.
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”
– CS Lewis
Thanks Gator that was the quote I was thinking of. Lewis really expresses the thought much better than I did.
I am now using Firefox (hence a lot more misspellings) and I don’t have access to all my files like I do on Opera.
Opera keeps crashing my system so I switched. I really do need to get a better computer.
One of my all time favorite quotes.
Thanks Gator and Gail!
Ted Cruz responds…
“The Ex-Im Bank is a classic example of corporate welfare. It is cronyism at its worst, with U.S. taxpayers guaranteeing billions of dollars in loans for sketchy buyers in foreign nations. Ex-Im is scheduled to wind down on June 30. But powerful lobbyists in Washington want to keep the money flowing.
After witnessing several senators huddle on the floor the day of the TPA vote, I suspected that to get their votes on TPA, Republican Leadership had promised supporters of Ex-Im a vote to reauthorize the bank before it winds down.
At lunch that day, I asked Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)what precise deal had been cut to pass TPA. Visibly irritated, he told me and all my Republican colleagues that there was no deal whatsoever; rather, he simply told them they could use the ordinary rules to offer whatever amendments they wanted on future legislation.
Taking McConnell at his word that there was no deal on Ex-Im, I voted yes on TPA because I believe the U.S. generally benefits from free trade, and without TPA historically there have been no free-trade agreements.
But then the vote went to the House. Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), to the surprise of many, led House Democrats to oppose TPA en masse. (Technically, they voted against TAA, which was wrapped into the deal on TPA.)
At that point a group of House conservatives went to Speaker Boehner and said they could support TPA if Boehner agreed not to cut a deal with Democrats on Ex-Im, and just let the bank expire.
Boehner declined. Instead, it appears he made the deal with Democrats, presumably tossing in the Ex-Im Bank and also increasing tax penalties on businesses.
Moreover, the Speaker punished conservatives, wrongly stripping Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) of his subcommittee chairmanship, and reportedly threatening to strip other conservatives of their chairmanships as well.
Why does Republican Leadership always give in to the Democrats? Why does Leadership always disregard the promises made to the conservative grassroots?
Enough is enough. I cannot vote for TPA unless McConnell and Boehner both commit publicly to allow the Ex-Im Bank to expire—and stay expired. And, Congress must also pass the Cruz-Sessions amendments to TPA to ensure that no trade agreement can try to back-door changes to our immigration laws. Otherwise, I will have no choice but vote no.
There’s too much corporate welfare, too much cronyism and corrupt dealmaking, by the Washington cartel. For too long, career politicians in both parties have supported government of the lobbyist, by the lobbyist, and for the lobbyist – at the expense of the taxpayers. It’s a time for truth. And a time to honor our commitments to the voters.”
https://www.tedcruz.org/
Cruz already proved he will LIE to get votes. As far as I am concerned he is a complete SLEAZE.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CZ8PctBUUAA2hMf.jpg
The text reads:
There is no VOTING VIOLATION the information is confidention and not public domain.
Can you imagine what this guy would do with real power? How about IRS targeting like Obama used onf True-The-Vote.
Can you imagine what he would do with the Cambridge Analytica type profiling that he is already doing?
The percentages on that mailer are completely made up.
One of the targeted voters of Ted Cruz’s campaign shaming letters in Iowa is a democrat and political scientist. He was VERY unhappy about the fraud and went to the New Yorker.
http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/ted-cruzs-iowa-mailers-are-more-fraudulent-than-everyone-thinks
News flash. “Violation” does not just mean violation of state law. And “voting” does not just mean voting in state elections.
The mailer may indeed be rather sleazy, but it doesn’t appear to contain any lies. And he probably really regrets that he sent it out.
The comment you quote from Paul Pate is not correct in that this mailer is definitely not a false representation of an official act. Only in his mind. Maybe he wants it to be, but that doesn’t make it so.
Do you really think that this convinced anyone to vote for Cruz? I think that, if anything, it may have depressed his vote. Probably, most who were already committed to Cruz just groaned or rolled their eyes. That’s what I would have done, and then burned it.
Those who were not committed were more likely to decide for someone else (unless they saw something equally sleazy from that person!)
Gail, the article you linked stated
“This was not a misstep on the part of Cruz. It was a Psy-ops move based on data mining research. Remember it was ‘narrowly focused’. So how did the Cruz Machine focus this mailer? It was focused using “hoovered up personal data” that was used by ” paid researchers at Cambridge University” (Cambridge Analytica) to come up with ” detailed psychological profiles” as I showed in another comment here today.”
This appears more then farfetched to me. Why? Well they claim these “detailed psychological profiles” and narrowly focused research, but that does not begin to fly with sending it to a
“…Dave Peterson, a political scientist at Iowa State University who is well-acquainted with the research on “social pressure” turnout techniques, received a mailer last week.
“Peterson, who is actually a Hillary Clinton supporter, moved to Iowa in 2009. He told me that he has voted in three out of the last three general elections and in two out of the last three primaries”
I will wait to hear the Cruz campaign explanation before coming to any conclusions on what this is about and who exactly authorized it.
“the information is confidention and not public domain.”
“The percentages on that mailer are completely made up.”
“The most aggressive letter matched the Alaska mailer and the Ted Cruz mailer. It included the addressee’s voting history“
“voter records [. . .] are available for purchase for political purposes only, under Iowa Code”
With all due respect, those quotes do not agree with one another. So it appears that some of this is being made up, not by Ted Cruz, but about him!
Richard.
Cruz got slapped by Iowa’s secretary of state, Paul Pate for calling information that was not within the public domain public. He also slapped Cruz fo using the words VOTING VIOLATION which is an OUTRIGHT LIE.
Cruz got lapped by Dave Peterson, a political scientist at Iowa State University for making up about the percentages.
So you have two people with decent ‘credentials’ either telling the truth about Cruz’s sleazy tactics or hanging their rumps out in the breeze by commiting libel.
I very much doubt this is the end of the Mailergate. There are a lot of people who got that mailer in which Cruz was lying. On top of that Cruz lied about Carson. I expect there are lawsuits being readied because American voters are fed up with dirty politics.
Cruz’s Misleading Mail Angers Iowa Secretary of State
Did Ted Cruz gin up Iowa voter histories? This article gets into the nitty grittyof the percentage numbers with pointers towards. Emails, David Peterson, professor of political science, Iowa State University, Feb. 3, 2016
OFFICE OF THE IOWA SECRETARY OF STATE
Statement from Secretary of State Paul Pate Regarding Misleading Mailer from Cruz for President Campaign
People can spin this however they want but the facts are the facts and the facts show Cruz is a morally corrupt sleaze.
Cruz told no lie about Carson; that’s absurd.
Use of the term “Voter violation” is sleazy, but it’s not a lie if it doesn’t claim to originate from an elections office, which it doesn’t.
This is important because there’s a huge difference between being sleazy and being an outright liar.
Richard T. Fowler says: “…Cruz told no lie about Carson; that’s absurd….”
Actually Richard more and more is coming out on that story and the mre information the sleazer Cruz looks.
Carson had plans to go home to Florida. He was simply leaving Iowa to avoid a winter storm and to get fresh clothes before continuing his campaign on Wednesday.
However it turns out the Ted Cruz Headquarters was telling Iowa precinct captains that Ben Carson had dropped out of the race before the CNN report. The messages were sent at 7:07pm (CST), and 7:29 (CST) before the votes were cast.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/04/ted-cruz-voicemails-ben-carson-exclusive-audio/
There was a now-deleted tweet (I saw that too) by someone on Cruz’s team, saying that the Carson team in NH had confirmed that Carson was planning to quit. The NH team had left Carson’s team on Sunday to join the Cruz team.
ALL the evidence, tweets and all are shown in this video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=X8hJofse56g
To top it off CNN says Ted Cruz’s claims about CNN are ‘false’
So as I keep saying CRUZ IS A SLEAZE!
Gail, why don’t you just put another democrat in office and be done with it. It is this sort of he-said-she-said childish BS infighting that lost the last election.
I have many things I could say about Trump, but I hold it back, as I do not want another democrat in office.
About Cruz about Carson ….
What business does one candidate have telling anyone anything about what they think another candidate is doing? Even if it were true, why not just keep it to yourself. Clearly the only reason to tell others anything about the other candidate, is self-serving sabotage of that other candidate.
Neal more and more information is comming out about Cruz.
The Real Ted Cruz: I studied nearly every word the Texas senator uttered during the immigration showdown. He may be the most spectacular liar ever to run for president.
OUCH!
Neal, thanks for your thoughts. It’s not sabotage if the candidate who is passing on the report … believes it. And as of this moment, there is no reason to think that Cruz didn’t believe it. In fact, I haven’t even heard or seen any evidence that he knew about the e-mail before it was sent out. He said his team sent it out. If he thought that whoever was responsible believed that it wasn’t true, but sent it out anyway, I think he would have either fired or demoted that person.
And let’s not forget that, not only was the part of the story that was passed on by Cruz true, but the original source for the story was official comments by the Carson campaign. This wasn’t some murky investigative report with a secret source trying to sabotage the campaign they work for. It was Ben Carson’s loyal staff, putting out information on the record. (Information that they didn’t see a problem with putting out, or perhaps just thought they had no choice but to put out. Of course, they didn’t foresee how CNN would spin it, or else they would have been more careful in their wording.)
But now that Carson sees an opportunity to sabotage another candidate, a candidate who he apparently don’t like (which is news to a lot of Cruz supporters), they’re twisting the dagger. There’s the problem you should be concerned about. Why aren’t you? Probably because you’ve bought into the MSM spin on this story. Unfortunately, they know how to push our buttons to get what they want from us.
All Cruz did, at the very most, was authorize an e-mail which repeated the CNN story but didn’t go quite as far as the CNN commentators did to question the authenticity of Carson’s continuing his campaign. AND WE DON’T EVEN KNOW THAT HE DID THAT. Cruz’ subsequent statement doesn’t indicate whether he even knew about the e-mail before it went out.
What I just stated above is the facts of the matter. Everything beyond that is simply spin from an Establishment that is obsessed with destroying Cruz, and has been ever since he launched his campaign. You of course have the privilege to disagree, but I encourage you to consider the extreme likelihood that you are being scammed by people who know the truth of this matter, but don’t want you to know it.
Having been a strong Cruz supporter for the past few months, based on his opposition to the climate liars, I signed up to volunteer for his campaign, which is a first for me.
But I am with Gail on this…this is dirty. I disagree that it is not an outright lie.
And I will do anything to avoid having a Democrat win the WH again.
This is not how we will prevent that.
We will prevent it by putting up the strongest candidate.
I am becoming less enamored with every passing day since the caucuses.
I will support any Republican over any Democrat, but Cruz is no longer at the top of my list. I doubt he is the strongest chance we have in the November election, although that could change.
I remain open minded on all the Republican contenders, even on Trump (who I note also calls out the climate liars for what they are), who may be the best one of the three on the economy (We may well sink into recession this year) and on security/national defense issue (I am sure we will not go the next 9 months without a major act of terrorism, despite the current lull. In fact I view the lull as ominous), and so may wind up in polling as the best chance against either of the likely demorats.
Menicholas, Cruz is being kneecapped by the media and by two of his opponents. It is standard Leftist tactics. It could happen to any candidate, and it WILL happen to whoever gets nominated. Cruz is definitely the strongest candidate of the race. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been pushing back strongly on the lies and spin that are being put out there, as the long knives come out. I guess he figures that if he gets louder about it, people will accuse him of becoming more Trump-like, and he still won’t win. It’s a very difficult situation for Cruz. Personally, I would have handled it a little more aggressively. But he made a strategic choice. Unfortunately, the MSM editors and strategists play 3D chess just like he does, and they have him considerably outnumbered in terms of smart people planning their battles in advance. So we have to expect that setbacks like this will happen, no matter who the nominee is. Trump is getting the kid glove treatment because most of all, they want to get rid of Cruz. They figure they “can work” with Trump, and they’re right. Trump is very open about that. And they figure that they probably can’t get Rubio because he has too big of a hill to climb, though they’re doing every thing they can to make it easier for him.
How are the elite going to get the candidate THEY want and not the candidate we choose?
It is very simple. Field a lot of candidates use divide and conquer to make sure no one get 50% or more of the delegates and go for a brokered convention where the GOPe can harass and threaten the delegates into supporting the candidate THEY have already chosen.
N.H. Republican Power Broker Says NO Trump, NO Cruz – Promises Brokered Convention That would indicate they want Jeb Bush or maybe Rubio.
Brokered convention (WIKI)
Here it is spelled out by the GOPe
RNC Rule Changes and RNC Rule Battles
I ran across a site called DC Whispers that has some really interesting info in light of the Martin Wolf article. Especially since it was written several days earlier.
Ferguson is the guy who gave us McCain to run against Obummer instead of a viable candidate.
Statistics showed in 1990, before WTO was ratified, Foreign ownership of U.S. assets amounted to 33% of U.S. GDP. By 2002, just after he left office this had increased to over 70% of U.S. GDP. source: http://www.fame.org/HTM/greg%20Pickup%201%2010%2003%20report.htm
The wealth of America has been quietly sold off piece by piece. This means the advertizing dollars driving the US media is in the hands of Foreign Globalists.
This is a sampling of the industries directly involved with the media that haveh over 50% foreign ownership, according to Source Watch ( 31 October 2008) http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Foreign_ownership_of_U.S._corporations
* Sound recording industries – 97%
* Commodity contracts dealing and brokerage – 79%
* Motion picture and sound recording industries – 75%
* Motion picture and video industries – 64%
* Database, directory, and other publishers – 63%
* Book publishers – 63%
* Advertising and related services – 41%
That tells you why Levin, Rush, Fox News and most of the rest of the ‘Conservative Media’ are FOR the GOPe candidates like BOOOOOooosh, Rubio and Cruz.
George Orwell, understood the power of patriotism (He also distinguishes between patriotism and nationalism.)
This is why the Globalists with their mass immigration and multiculturalism are trying to destroy American culture and patriotism. link Patriotism is what has called Americans to Mr. Trump’s message. You can see it in these polls which scare the living daylights our of the Elite. (They thought with PC they had already killed it.)
This is what Orwell has to say about Nationalism (Hitler and Stalin) vs Patriotism,
And as usual Regressives will use their word games to make sure people think Patriotism == Nationalism == Hitler.

Some patriotism can be good; extreme patriotism is bad. That is why you see Orwell alluding to the fact that Hitler and Mussolini exploited patriotism so effectively to get and maintain power.
The extreme within the spectrum of patriotism is the kind which says, “Anyone who disagrees with us, or is very different, is not one of us, and cannot be allowed in our presence, or must be kept at a lower level. To do otherwise is to unnecessarily permit weakness within the nation, which would be a threat to our security or our dominance.”
And that, inevitably, leads to threats against the security or life of the oppressed minority.
I never even mentioned immigration. I have been outspoken against continuing current levels of immigration, lawful or otherwise.
At this point, I’m not sure I could be any clearer than I was, about what I was talking about.
One other thing … Cruz’ campaign was not treating the caucus-goers of Iowa like cattle, by repeating the accurate portion of the report from CNN, the source of which was the Carson campaign. The e-mail did not repeat CNN’s editorialization, just the reported facts, which turned out to be 100% true.
Now, assuming that Cruz knew about the e-mail in advance and allowed it to go out (which as far as I know, has not been revealed, but if we just assume), the rationale for that is to let Carson caucusers know about it, since it wouldn’t necessarily be known to the Cruz camp whether or not the Carson camp had informed its own supporters of the same things they told CNN. (One would hope they would have prior to or at the time of caucusing, but there’s no telling about that.)
Now, the suggestion being made is that Carson people were being treated like cattle by informing them of the factual part of the story (which we now know to be TRUE) and then expressing the opinion that it means he’s giving up, and that they might be better off voting for someone who’s still seriously in the race.
Now that latter part (that Carson was not still seriously in the race) is a conclusion that Cruz supporters might draw from the reported facts. (Factual statements which turned out to be TRUE.)
Now, if they had drawn a spurious conclusion from the facts, then that might be said to be treating caucus-goers like cattle, in some sense. But if the conclusion is reasonable, and the proposed remedy (support someone else) is reasonable, that is NOT treating caucus-goers like cattle, unless one believes that making any sound, rational argument in favor of one’s candidate, in the caucus room, at the time of caucusing, is treating them like cattle.
Sorry, the above was not supposed to go there.
On one end we get Nationalism which is characterized by expantion of a country as seen by Hitler and Stalin. Patriotism is NOT about expanding borders. It is about politicians puting their nations concerns first. On the other end is multiculturalism which has the goal of deliberately destroying a nation.
How To Destroy America By: Dick Lamm | Sat, Mar 25, 2006
Lamm was governor of Colorado and a Democrat.
Yeah, yeah, I cited your own quote, Gail. Not any source of mine. Yours.
Richard,
Fifty years ago people came to this country LEGALLY with the hope of making a better life for themselves. They became AMERICANS. Three of my four grandparents are immigrants and NONE of them failed to learn English, failed to become citizens, failed to work hard to better themselves. None lived in an area that was exclusively Syrian or German or Danish or French. They were proud to be Americans and taught their children to be Americans.
Today we have people coming here illegally and making no attempt to learn English, no attempt to become citizens and in many cases they do not even bother to get jobs. When they do get jobs they send the money home with the intention of leaving the USA once they have finished screwing us.
Why in Hades shouldn’t we kick their butts out of this country? It is not ‘Nationalism’ (which you and the Regressives link to Hitler), it is Patriotism, being proud of your country and wanting to protect what is YOURS.
I see ZERO difference in locking the doors of my home and insisting no one enter with out permision, no one stealing my belongings, being proud of my home and what I have built. Patriotism applies the same concepts at the national level and people are getting DARN sick and tired of people telling them to shut up lie down and let NONCITIZENS walk all over them!
If there is a major backlash, and there is, don’t go blaming the people who have been robbed and kicked in the face. Blame the PC Regressives.
Trying to ‘shame us’ by link our genetically imprinted territorial behavior to ‘Hitler’ just makes us all the Angrier.
Reposting this where it was intended to go …
I never even mentioned immigration. I have been outspoken against continuing current levels of immigration, lawful or otherwise.
At this point, I’m not sure I could be any clearer than I was, about what I was talking about.
One other thing … Cruz’ campaign was not treating the caucus-goers of Iowa like cattle, by repeating the accurate portion of the report from CNN, the source of which was the Carson campaign. The e-mail did not repeat CNN’s editorialization, just the reported facts, which turned out to be 100% true.

At this point the GOPe race is looking more like a blood sport than a civilied debate between adults.
For the first time, thanks to the internet we get to see the inner workings as the curtain gets yanked back.
Just for yucks:
The OBAMA PROPAGANDA NETWORK
CBS President David Rhodes is the brother of Ben Rhodes, Obama’s Deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications.
ABC News correspondent Claire Shipman is married to former Whitehouse Press Secretary Jay Carney.
ABC News and Univision reporter Matthew Jaffe is married to Katie Hogan,Obama’s Deputy Press Secretary.
Jorge Ramos Discloses Daughter Works for Hillary Clinton’s Campaign:
ABC News executive producer Ian Cameron is married to Susan Rice, National Security Adviser.
ABC President Ben Sherwood is the brother of Obama’s Special Adviser Elizabeth Sherwood.
CNN President Virginia Moseley is married to former Hillary Clinton’s Deputy Secretary Tom Nides
David Pfeiffer former White House senior advisor joins CNN
NBC General Counsel Kimberley D. Harris served as White House Deputy Counsel and Deputy Assistant to the President.
Jeb Bush has been keeping his head down so he may be the last man standing. Rand Paul and Ben Carson have no chance of pulling the 51% needed to sweep the table and keep the GOPe from a brokered (fixed) Convention.
CRUZ
At this point Cruz is the front runner competing with Trump.
I originally wanted a Cruz/Trump or Trump/Cruz ticket until I found out just how sleazy the guy is. Remember he is a LAWYER and therefore should be held to a higher standard in regard to breaking laws.
Cruz sealed HIS records and did not give the same privacy to the serfs. The voting record of affiliations he used in his mailers are NOT open to the public.
“Also, the Iowa Secretary of State does not ‘distribute’ voter records. They are available for purchase for political purposes only, under Iowa Code.”
Kinda debunks the whole public record meme the cruz enablers are pushing.
One of the targeted voters of Ted Cruz’s campaign shaming letters in Iowa is a democrat and political scientist. He was VERY unhappy about the fraud and went to the New Yorker.
http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/ted-cruzs-iowa-mailers-are-more-fraudulent-than-everyone-thinks
And yes it was OUTRIGHT FRAUD as this man describes in detail. The % voted were made up numbers pulled out of someone’s rump.
Rand Paul has dropped out of the race.
Cruz eligibility issues make Obama’s look like a walk in the park.
Sen. Ted Cruz’s birth certificate shows he was born in Calgary Canada in 1970. At that time Canada DID NOT have dual citizenship. Sen. Ted Cruz only gave up his Canadian dual citizenship on May 14, 2014 roughly 9 months after he learned he wasn’t only an American. Ted Cruz, like Obummer has sealed his records. Boy, Oh Boy will the Birthers have lots and lots of fun with the following information!
Ted Cruz’s Mother Was On Official List Of Canadian Citizens Eligible To Vote [and so was his father]
Canada and Dual Citizenship
From WIKI seems the US government pulled their page that I referred to earlier on Dual Citizenship— SURPRIZE!
This is an interview regarding Obama in 2012 when Cruz was running for Senate.
And even funnier Cruz wrote the forward for the book “US Constitution For Dummies” The book reveals Cruz not eligible as natural born citizen per the US Supreme Court case United States vs Wong Kim Ark 1898. Going to Cornell Law you find this juicy tidbit.
This may no longer be the case but the Birthers are going to have a field day.
My opinion is Cruz was never ment to be a real candidate but is instead a stalking horse for Bush. There are several Supreme Court Justices who will be retiring and that is probably his payoff.
. Newton B. Schwartz, Sr., an 85-year-old Houston lawyer who is leaning toward supporting Bernie Sanders for president, filed the lawsuit.
We Have Our First Lawsuit Over Ted Cruz’s Eligibility — And It’s A Doozy
“My opinion is Cruz was never meant to be a real candidate [. . . .]”
Are you treating anyone like cattle, by making this statement?
The other main challenger is Rubio. He has as many problems as Cruz. So he also is a likely stalking horse for The Twig.
Rubio is called the “Milk Carton Senator” because he’s no-where to be found when he is supposed to be voting. link
“Gang-Of-Eight” Rubio was for illegal alien amnesty, voting with Democrats to block amendments that would have forced border security first. link
There is a 555 page report on Rubio dirty dealings – http://www.scribd.com/doc/99535157/American-Bridge-Rubio-Book“>link
Dirty business – http://observer.com/2016/01/poor-little-rich-boy/
Rubio and Amnesty – http://marcorubioamnestyman.com/
His brother in-law was part drug ring. http://www.tampabay.com/news/politics/stateroundup/the-drug-smuggling-ring-that-brought-anguish-to-marco-rubios-family/2257721
When his brother in-law got out of jail, Rubio used his influence as House Majority Whip to get him a real estate license he was not eligible for without disclosing they were related (conflict of interest)
http://ipledgeallegiancetotheflagocpi.blogspot.com/2015/12/rubio-used-office-to-help-drug.html
He also has a friendship with Norman Braman, who subsidized his job as a college instructor and gave both Rubio and his wife jobs. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/10/us/politics/marco-rubio-finances-debt-loans-credit.html?_r=0
Rubio’s press secretary is the daughter of the Fox News Media executive, Bill Sammon, who is in charge of putting the candidate debate questions together.
http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/01/28/internecine-politics-fox-news-debate-executives-daughter-is-marco-rubio-press-secretary/
Fox News Media who have been trying to prop up Marco Rubio for the benefit of Fox’s corporate goal for illegal alien amnesty.
http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/11/13/fox-news-rupert-murdoch-and-the-immigrationamnesty-agenda/
http://mediamatters.org/research/2015/08/04/bill-sammon-is-the-secret-weapon-shaping-the-fo/204734
So Rubio is being propped up by Fox News and others like Rush and Levin while he makes sure Trump and Cruz and the others have no change of getting the 51% needed for a clean win.
Do I think Trump will get the needed 51% of the delegates?
No. Even if he actually does there is always voter fraud.
Microsoft provided the aps for vote counting in Iowa for free.
Marco Rubio: http://www.opensecrets.org/politicians/summary.php?cid=N00030612
Rubio’s press secretary is the daughter of a Fox News Media executive in charge of putting the candidate debate questions together. So those two facts may explain the ‘Rubio Surge’
And speaking of Fox News….
A quicky on Rush Limbaugh.
Rush is very good friends with Ailes (Fox News) and has Megyn Kelley over for dinner.
Limbaugh bashed Trump about Obamacare saying Trump is for Obamacare just before the Iowa Caucus Rush Limbaugh refused calls from Trump supporters and ignored the Cruz Shame-Mailer. Rush trotted out Trump support of Obummercare based on Trump mentioning people dying on the street at the Wounded Veterans rally (Referring to our disgraceful Veterans Hospitals — One year after VA scandal, the number of veterans waiting for care is up 50 percent)
This is a major falsehood. pg 121 to 134 of Trump’s book “Time to get Tough” he calls for repeal of Obummercare, Tort reform to lower insurance cost of medical practitioners and more competition in the health insurance industry by allowing cross-state competition. It is not like Blue Cross Blue Shield isn’t already available in all states already now is it?
For small business owners Obamacare is a real horror and Iowa is full of small businessmen. So this was a targeted attack on the part of Rush.

Gail, reading all this is very depressing and galling.
I almost wish I had not read any of it.
Almost, but not quite.
Gail, as they say ; that’s a very big can of worms..! Can thing’s get any worse..?
Yes a very very big can of worms and I do not think we have much chance of reversing it.
If people do not wake the F…k up NOW the USA is dead and buried. Killed by the foreigners who have strangled her and sucked out the life over the course of the last hundred years.
The USA will be just like the European Union run over by third world people with no loyalty to the country. Our laws will be handed to us by foreigners from outside the country and we will be nothing more than a vassal state stripped of our sovereignty, national identity and wealth.
If I did not think this was a very very big threat I would not bother investigating and posting all this crap since I completely despise politics.

The one reliable way to avoid a brokered convention is for 90+% of conservatives to support an authentic conservative. Any conservative voter supporting a phony is supporting us going to a brokered convention in Cleveland. Because the phony conservative candidate is less likely than any authentic conservative to achieve the support from conservatives in the primaries that he would need, to get an absolute majority of delegates, prior to the convention.
The Democrats don’t do this to themselves, because their hard-left leaders are smart enough to see that supporting a phony Leftist who’s just faking it would weaken their chances in November, and also force them into a brokered convention. So, they go to great lengths to vet candidates and expel any who they perceive to be phony. They’re being smart about it (though not exactly democratic.)
We, on the other hand, are being stupid about it, mainly because the party leaders are not on our side, so they want chaos and destruction within the Republican Party. They are secretly for the Democrats.
gator69 says: “…Gail, why don’t you just put another democrat in office and be done with it….”
THAT is the whole point gator, we have two parties that are no different from each other and we have an MSM that is controled by foreigners dictating who wins our elections either by propaganda or outright voter fraud.
The GOPe is going to pull the same crap they did with McCain and Romney. We will be saddled with a no can win candidate — Jeb Bush via a brokered convention if no candidate gets 51%. No one will vote for Bush against Hillary because he barely pulls 2 to 4% in the polls.
Foreigners at the Davos Economic Summit have come out and said point blank Hillary is to be GIVEN the presidency. link
The critical point is the Democrats are a braindead voting block who will vote for who ever they are told to vote for and that includes Hillary. The Republicans hate the GOPe RINO picks and so do the independents. That is the reason we ended up with the Tea Party and a 1/3, 1/3 and 1/3 split before the MSM took out the Tea Party with false advertising. Now we have a media company beholden to Martin Sorrell’s advertising dollars telling the Tea Party what to think.
At this point we have a bunch of bought and paid for career politicians who are FOR open immigration and FOR the Trans-Pacific Partnership with ties to Citigroup and Goldman Sachs. In other words they are all Globalists with a coating of slime to boot. The only ones who are not are Trump and Carson.
Trump does have international negotiating experience, he has management skills, he can pick the right people for the job AND he is not a politician or a do nothing lawyer. Ben Carson is the only other non-politician but he does not have Trump’s broad experience. He is for tight gun control similar to Australia
Carson supports giving guest-worker status to millions of undocumented immigrants without criminal records.
Dr. Ben Carson Signals Openness To Obamatrade’s Pacific Rim Trade Deal
So Ben gets a zero out of three and his lack of showing at the polls reflects this.
That was not my point Gail. Rantings like yours are making a democrat win in November ever more likely, exactly as they did in 2012. Keep it up.
OK Gator lets reverse this.
Tell me WHY you think the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a clone of the European Union with international corporations having the final say on any Amercain law, and completely open borders, is such a great idea for the USA?
Are you a globalist Gator? Because Trump is the ONLY non-globalist in the whole pack as I just got through pointing out.
Remember the Trans-Pacific Partnership ?

DISPUTE SETTLEMENT
This is what is being used against Russia
CROSS-BORDER TRADE IN SERVICES
TEMPORARY ENTRY FOR BUSINESS PERSONS

And what about our government services like the Post Office, drivers license bureau… Can’t leave those out.
That is not reversing anything Gail, it is you supporting the democrat nominee by circular firing squad.
And yeah Cruz flipped on his position but only after he found it would lose him votes.
Ted Cruz flips on Obama trade agenda after months of support
WHAT absolute BULL SHIT the government synopse I posted above shows it opens borders!
Marco Rubio
Marco Rubio Praises Obamatrade
Gator, how many times have republicans LIED to us to get our votes and then gone along with the globalists and helped remove our freedom and strip our wealth? Do you really really believe GOP establishment politicians tell us the truth? Especially sleazeballs like Rubio and Cruz who have already proven they have the morals of a mink?
Gail, how many times has childish he-said-she-said BS caused democrats to win office and caused the globalists to remove our freedom and strip our wealth? Do you really really believe politicians tell us the truth? Especially sleazeballs like Trump and who has already proven they have the morals of a mink?
Fixed it for ya!
Just slap on a Hillary 2016 bumper sticker on your horse trailer and be done with it.
So Why Trump?
First and foremost because he has a vested interest in not only the USA but in a healthy prosperouse middle class. AND he is the ONLY one running who is tied to this country. In other words the rest could give a sh..t about this country. They have no vested interest or real loyalty.
Think about it. Trump is a builder. He builds big and small buildings, hotels, casinos. His wealth is dependent on a healthy USA and a healthy prosperouse middle class. Agenda 21 IS A WIPEOUT MOVE to his empire. So is a rotten economy for that matter.
So Why Trump?
Because he is pulling over 50% of the vote in the polls. Rasmusen shows he has a chance of winning against Hilary.
So Why Trump?
Because of his big draw for not only republicans and independents but also Reagan Democrats.
Trumps biggest draw, which Rasmusen highlighted is.
Americans Tired of Elites Considering Them Stupid and Vicious
Anericans are also tired of being gaslighted by the media and politicians. Tired of the lying about Obamacare and then told they are STUPID by Gruber. Tired of the government hiding the high unemployment and rotten economy. Tired of seeing THEIR jobs go to foreigners and then being told it is because the USA has no one to fill those jobs. Jobs THEY trained the foreigners for before getting fired.
This is why the Globalist are scared out of their mind.
They can see the Great American Giant slowly waking up and listenning to Trump tell them they are good and smart and the problems ARE NOT THEIR FAULT. That Americans have been hoodwinked by PC and outsiders and they can Make America Great Again.
What I very very much fear is either Trump will be assasinated (and the relatiation promised) or a major wipeout move.
Duke Energy controls the Eastern Seaboard grid. Duke Energy formed in 1997 just after the WTO was ratified. Duke Energy loaned money to Obama and is fully on board Agenda 21.
Shut down the electric grid causing a major blackout on the eastcoast and the innercities, primed for violence by George Soros, go up in smoke. Government suspended. Voting suspended. Welcome Dictator Obama.
If Americans are tired of being called stupid by the statist elite, then why did Trump insult those who support him, saying he could commit murder in full view, and they would still vote for him?
Did you hear the whole speech or are you quoting that out of context?
Because he wasn’t calling them stupid he was actually complementing his supporters, joking with them and expressing his surprise at the enthusiastic support he has been given.
It is called Hyperbole
(Trump does not have speech writers testing every phrase on a panel of people like the rest.)
Gail,
Cruz is my man and not a thing you wrote (and I’ve read it all) has changed my mind. Trump is not my man because I instinctively distrust those with a NYC mindset when it comes to politics and because I think as far as real politics goes on the national level he’s a babe in the woods who can’t tell you how he is going to accomplish all he says he’ll do, simply because he doesn’t know how he can do it. I also shy away from demagogues, and Trump is one. Populists like Trump are one of the reasons the founders settled on the electoral college and not the popular vote as the mechanism for electing the POTUS.
All that being said, I will vote for whoever the Republicans put up because every single one of them are closter to my ideals than either of the democrat candidates.
