Oliver Stone to RT:
‘US has become
an Orwellian state’

RT (Russia), by Staff

Original Article

Posted By:pineledger, 12/30/2012 5:30:46 AM

Americans are living in an Orwellian state argue Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick, as they sit down with RT to discuss US foreign policy and the Obama administration’s disregard for the rule of law. (Snip)According to Kuznick, American citizens live in a fish tank where their government intercepts more than 1.7 billion messages a day. “That is email, telephone calls, other forms of communication.” RT’s Abby Martin in the program Breaking the Set discusses the Showtime film series and book titled The Untold History of the United States co-authored by Oliver Stone and Peter Kuznick.

Comments:
Before you swoon, read the interview or watch the clip. It´s now Bush´s fault that we ended up with a dictator.

Oliver, bless him, knows that evil is upon the land but just can´t seem to break his progressive mind conditioning. Oliver is still just one more useful idiot that will require re-programing or ridicule to effect isolation. I don´t think Oliver is so far gone to require janet N to classify him as a terrorist but saying that , he is a vet. Watch as more and more useful idiots wake up from the long delusional sleep to see what they have enabled, they are the great threat to the darkness and the greatest punishments are reserved for them. That´s just the way it has historicaly been, stalin killed his useful idiots wholesale, mao disarmed his first than slaughtered, che killed fidel´s useful idiots, pol pot killed his with a plastic bag over the head, hitler had his night of the long knife.

When do they wake up? Historicaly speaking, too late.

The last time America woke up facing a nasty dictatorship, it required "all this and World War Two" to get rid of it.

At least this time, the danger is closer to home.

Bush´s intercepts were done on a national security basis. Obama´s are out of plain old snooping and getting the goods on political enemies. Some new law just passed where the gov´t can snoop through e mails without a warrant.This after the SC ruled that you can´t put a GPS device on a criminal´s care without probable cause and a search warrant.Police were using these to save manpower tracking the crooks by car or some other old fashioned means.

The FBI went through extraordinary means to tack down the author of the email the Fl. socialite got which eventually led to Petraeus´s downfall and opting outof Libyan testimony. I mean should the gov´t have the power of unlimited access to people´s private accounts on the very slim notion there could be an organized uprising in this country?


The FBI should be out chasing down real criminals like the metal thieves robbing Sandy victims homes or addressing the 70% surge in dognappings,not sitting at a desk snooping through private emails without justification.

Obama is very phobic and paranoid about underground revolutions popping up,so he´s raiding every venue he can to get hints on any.

In hindsight,Watergate was pure child´s play compared to what Obama and his thugs are doing.

The one line with which I agree came when OS said liberal treat the symptoms and not the problem.

Liberals treat the symptoms by reducing the freedoms of law-abiding citizens rather than tackle the real problem of criminals breaking the law. They would rather eliminate the possession of guns rather than crack down on those who use guns in violation of the law.

Olly has been a solid General soldier in the long red march that got us here, what´s he complaining about. Maybe he knows that when the Party is consolidating many top party leaders are first to disappear. Rule of Law what Rule of Law. "We don´t need No Stinkin Badges" (Treasure of Sierra Madre)

If he really has problems, make a movie of what OBama gang is doing to the country. See what its like when the scalded dog leftist come after him. NO Guts.

Amazing what Hollyweirdites and other pols will say to RT that they will tell not say to an Obama loving press person in the USA.

They are barely seven years old, but these glum-looking children are already being drafted into a tyrannical regime hellbent on waging nuclear war with the world. Standing in arrow-straight rows, their faces are hardly the picture of happiness as they are forced to pledge their allegiance to North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and call him ´father´. Troubling images of them being inducted into an organisation likened to the Hitler Youth emerged as their despot leader pressed ahead with plans to launch a ballistic missile, potentially with nuclear capabilities.

Sebelius Tries To Blame GOP
For Coming ObamaCare Failures
Investor´s Business Daily, by Editorial    Original Article
Posted By: pineledger- 4/12/2013 4:50:03 AM     Post Reply
Health Care: As Democrats grow increasingly worried that ObamaCare will explode on the launch pad just as midterm elections get going, the Obama administration seeks to pin blame on Republicans. Good luck with that. Earlier this week, Health and Human Services head Kathleen Sebelius admitted that she didn´t realize how complicated getting ObamaCare off the ground would be. Sebelius complained that "no one fully anticipated" the difficulties involved in implementing ObamaCare, or how confusing it would be with the public.

Why Is White House Stonewalling On Benghazi?

More than six months since Ambassador Christopher Stevens was assassinated by terrorists in Benghazi, the Obama administration is still trying to keep a lid on information about the attack. Congress and the American people need to know what happened the night of Sept. 11, 2012. Who did the killing and what was their motive? Why wasn´t help sent? And why did the administration lie about who was responsible? (Snip) The identities of those Americans who were there, including those who were wounded, has been kept from congressional investigators who have a constitutional responsibility to oversee U.S. foreign policy

Last month, the Supreme Court decided to allow the importation and resale of foreign editions of American works, which are often cheaper than domestic editions. Until now, courts have forbidden such activity as a violation of copyright. Not only does this ruling open the gates to a surge in cheap imports, but since they will be sold in a secondary market, authors won’t get royalties. (Snip)But it is the latest example of how the global electronic marketplace is rapidly depleting authors’ income streams.

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

U.S. Adds Only 88,000 Jobs;
Jobless Rate Falls to 7.6%

Posted By: pineledger- 4/5/2013 9:23:27 AM     Post Reply
For the 30th straight month, the United States economy added jobs in March, albeit still at a pace too sluggish to put a big dent in the backlog of 11.7 million idle workers. The nation’s employers increased their payrolls by 88,000 last month, compared with 268,000 in February, according to a Labor Department report released Friday. The unemployment rate, which comes from a different survey, ticked down to 7.6 percent from 7.7 percent. The slight decrease in the unemployment rate occurred not because more unemployed people got jobs,

Bank of Japan launches

Tokyo—The Bank of Japan [8301.JA +4.83%] is pulling out all the stops to get the economy out of deflation, its new governor said, after the central bank rolled out aggressive easing measures that surprised markets, pushing bond yields to an all-time low and boosting share prices. At his inaugural policy board meeting Thursday, Haruhiko Kuroda convinced the nine-member panel to agree to a major expansion of government bond purchases, including buying longer-term debt, which is designed to drive down longer-term rates. The BOJ also broke free from some self-imposed limits that the previous leadership under Masaaki Shirakawa adhered to.

The present darling of the right wing, Dr. Benjamin Carson, is a distinguished neurosurgeon who went from the depths of Detroit poverty to the heights of Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. But his current status among conservatives isn’t so much rooted in Carson’s redemptive rise from rags to respectability, as it is in the belief that he is, in the long winter of Obama, the one they’ve been waiting for. (Snip)He then cast himself as a victim of political correctness, besieged by white liberals — “the most racist people there are”

Boston--Lost in the debate between Anne-Marie Slaughter’s chronicle of the obstacles confronting career-oriented mothers and Sheryl Sandberg’s call to “lean in” is a crucial reality: taxes. Women — no less than other humans, it turns out — can be rational economic actors. The tax code starts with a bias in favor of couples in which one partner works and one stays home.

Did Putin Sink Cyprus?
New York Times, by Ben Judah    Original Article
Posted By: pineledger- 4/3/2013 5:58:03 AM     Post Reply
Istanbul--The blue-glass skyscrapers of Moscow City — fragments of Russia’s boom-time dream — are visible from the Kremlin walls, within which there was once hope that those towers could supplant the West’s financial centers. When the sun sets behind them, you can see that many of the offices lie empty.In fact, the real hubs for Russian banking are in other countries. Moscow’s billionaires squirrel their fortunes abroad, and many businessmen register their companies as British, Dutch, Swiss or Cypriot — anything but Russian. Whistle-blowers would have us believe that even President Vladimir V. Putin stashes his money offshore.

Nicosia, Cyprus—-Lines formed outside banks in Cyprus´s capital early Thursday, but there was little sign of panic as the island´s lenders reopened after a two-week hiatus. Small groups of depositors—mainly numbering a few dozen, mostly pensioners—pressed to enter the banks as they formally reopened at noon (1000 GMT) local time. Police officers and security guards at Bank of Cyprus in Nicosia´s old town allowed eight depositors in at one time. (Snip)Some Cypriots said they would wait until the weekend to go to the bank, fearing that a rush might topple the very banks

Europeans Planted Seeds
of Crisis in Cyprus

Nicosia, Cyprus--When European finance chiefs explained their harsh terms for rescuing Cyprus this week, many blamed the tiny Mediterranean nation’s wayward banking practices for bringing ruin on itself. But the path that led to Cyprus’s current crisis — big banks bereft of money, a government in disarray and citizens filled with angry despair — leads back, at least in part, to a fateful decision made 17 months ago by the same guardians of financial discipline that now demand that Cyprus shape up.

Pro golfers, golf writers, and TV commentators are up in arms that Tiger Woods was only given a 2-stroke penalty for his illegal drop on the 15th hole yesterday. Tiger said last night that he dropped his ball two yards behind his previous spot, clearly violating the rule that you must drop "as nearly as possible" to your original spot. Golf people are not happy about it. They say that the new rule is B.S. (or it´s at least being misinterpreted), and Tiger should DQ himself to save the integrity of the game.

In Philadelphia, at a human abattoir on Lancaster Avenue, is where it ends, not where it starts. It starts with the perversion of language. It starts when the icons of a dissipated culture reduce a baby to a “fetus.” From there, Yeats’s blood-dimmed tide rolls rapidly in. Before long, a baby is not a person but a punishment, as President Barack Obama framed the matter in his familiar off-the-cuff iciness. Of course, to describe newborn children in their boundless possibilities and wonder would be to acknowledge, foremost, their humanity. That is why, instead, abortion enthusiasts must grope for words

Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV), one of the architects of the Affordable Care Act, said on Tuesday that the healthcare law, set to go into full effect in less than eight months, is “probably the most complex piece of legislation ever passed by the United States Congress” and “is just beyond comprehension.” Rockefeller said he is concerned that early missteps with implementing the healthcare overhaul may cascade into confusion and chaos. The law, said Rockefeller, is “so complicated and if it isn’t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse.” Rockefeller’s consternation echoes comments made earlier this

On his Friday show, syndicated talk show host Mark Levin said that a Republican congressman is attempting to persuade one of his affiliates to remove his show from the airwaves. Although Levin would not offer the congressman’s name on air, he has been a vocal critic of various members of the House Republican leadership in the past. But Levin called the situation “fascism.” “Well, it has come to my attention that there is a Republican congressman out there who doesn’t like what I’ve been saying,” Levin said. “It has come to my attention that there is a

They say they were just doing what the boss trained them to do. But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic. They said they performed grueling, often gruesome work for little more than minimum wage,

With President Obama, there’s always a catch. In the 2014 budget he announced last week, Obama proposed a more accurate way of calculating the inflation rate for annual cost-of-living increases in Social Security. It’s a technical change in pursuit of honesty and good government. And if adopted, it would cause benefits to grow more slowly, though almost imperceptibly so. Republican leaders in Congress ought to be delighted since they had “championed”—Obama’s word—the idea in the first place. Then came the catch. The president’s price for adopting this gentle reform was hundreds of billions in new tax increases.

Few Americans can not answer this question: who is the worst domestic mass murderer in United States’ history? Due to the United States media, most are aware that Timothy McVeigh slaughtered 168 people with a bomb in 1995. Most Americans also know the names of our three most monstrous serial killers: “The Green River Killer” Gary Ridgeway, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy. The U.S. media is again responsible for the general awareness of these men; these stories deserved — and received — national attention due to our common interest in personal safety, the rule of law

Here is something I don’t understand: liberals are often revealed as vile, vulgar hatemongers–not all of them, of course, but far too many–yet they never seem to pay a penalty at the polls. Why is that? Margaret Thatcher’s death has been the latest occasion for the Left to show its true stripes. All across the U.K., there have been demonstrations–vulgar at best, and violent at worst. In Bristol, lefties celebrating a Thatcher “death street party” started fires, destroyed property and battled police: This evening in Trafalgar Square, liberals have turned out for a long-planned celebration of Thatcher’s death:

TALLAHASSEE - Picture this: You´re in the left lane of the interstate, driving a little below the speed limit, when some guy zips up behind you and swerves past you on the right. Then you notice the blue lights flashing. You´re savoring the satisfaction of seeing a trooper actually nab an aggressive driver — until you realize it´s you he´s pulling over. This could happen, if not very often, under a major transportation package expected to be taken up in the Senate Appropriations Committee next week. Introduced by Sen.

A few hours after Margaret Thatcher´s death on Monday, the snarling deadbeats of the British underclass were gleefully rampaging through the streets of Brixton in South London, scaling the marquee of the local fleapit and hanging a banner announcing, "THE B@&$!

Mrs. Thatcher would have enjoyed all this. Her former speechwriter John O´Sullivan recalls how, some years after leaving office, she
