Bottom Line: it's OK to trash Martin Luther King and rewrite history...in IDIOT AMERICA and the previously liberal media that's been taken over by rightwingers and the GOP...that they still call liberal. Calling out to IDIOT AMERICA!!! Embarrassing MLK's legacy.

I suppose this isn't "racist", right? Mississippi Middle School has "whites only" for highest position. Rightwing "things" always start out with excuses, like: "We're not racist, ACORN stole the election!" "We don't hate Muslims, it's insensitive that the Mosque is next to ground zero!" "We aren't against gays and lesbians, it's the 'sanctity of marriage' we're concerned about!" They all start out like that, but end with beating up Muslims, dragging gays around with pickup trucks, shootings at "liberal" churches, threats to politicians they don't like, and THIS:
Republican Islamophobia...NOT being covered by the "liberal media"...NOT at "ground zero", but all around the country:
Republican New Jersey governor blows $400 million, then lies, then blames Obama...but the real story was all caught on video tape...OH! that video tape!!!

Today, a personal story of a national tragedy. Five years ago, Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans. Abdulrahman Zeitoun, a Syrian-born New Orleans building contractor, stayed in the city while his wife and children left to Baton Rouge. He paddled the flooded streets in his canoe and helped rescue many of his stranded neighbors. Days later, armed police and National Guardsmen arrested him and accused him of being a terrorist. He was held for nearly a month, most of which he was not allowed to call his wife, Kathy. Today, in a rare broadcast interview, Abdulrahman and Kathy Zeitoun join us to tell their story, along with the man who chronicles it in the book Zeitoun, Dave Eggers.

FKN New World Order news: HEADLIES TONIGHT - slight "delay" in the NWO...but they WILL get back on track...:
The TRUE attitude of Israeli's about torturing Palestinians: the FaceBook incident was NOT an isolated incident:
Media Monarchy News goes through the controlled U.S. mainstream media "news" headlines - WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING IN AFGHANISTAN???
As the far right calls for austerity, no one is thinking about a new economic model. AUSTERITY IN THE FACE OF WEAKNESS, AUSTERITY IN THE FACE OF WEAKNESS, WAGES AND THE CRISIS:
I will be off for a few days, chew on the information while I'm gone.......
Here are some of the reasons I don't believe the "official" 9/11 story
First and foremost, I'm not an idiot
NO EXPERTS believe it
Only politicians and the media pushed the official story, and they had it right on your TV's the instant it happened, which is impossible without first having real experts investigate it, which makes me also believe the media is corrupted
Rudy Giuliani had all the steel immediately shipped out and melted down from a crime scene that wasn't investigated by experts yet
No steel frame buildings EVER collapsed demolition style, due to fire, only the Twin Towers and WTC-7 (which wasn't hit by a plane)
Heat from fire cannot attain the degree to melt steel, according to ALL scientists
Mohammed Atta's VISA fell from the plane that hit the Twin Towers, and was found in pristine condition (impossible)
They won't release a tape of the plane that hit the Pentagon, even though the Pentagon is the most heavily filmed thing in the history of the earth
Cell phones couldn't have been used by passengers on the Pennsylvania flight to talk to people on the ground at that time
Osama Bin Laden was never charged with 9/11, nor was he ever wanted by the FBI for 9/11, because they can't prove he did it
I can go on and on and on with over 100 reasons, and I can think of NO reasons that I believe the "official" story...but that was just a quick list I thought of in less than 5 minutes..........
Aaron Russo: 9/11 and the "war on terror" is a JOKE, a FRAUD:
WTC-7, 47 story building a block away from the Twin Towers, was NOT hit by a plane but fell in 6 seconds demolition style. This was left out of the 9/11 Commission Report cover up:
Here's what REAL EXPERTS say about the "official" 9/11 story told to us ONLY by non-expert news media and politicians, the truth by the EXPERTS (architects, engineers, scientists, professors, firemen, policemen) has caught up to the FAKERS who pushed the FAKE story:
The role of the usurped mainstream news media is to push the views of: the wealthiest few elites, the military industrial complex, and corporations...all the while calling themselves "liberal":
ALL REAL EXPERTS (not politicians and the media) debunk the official story, saying it is impossible and proving it is impossible using FACTS and SCIENCE:
The Rockefeller brothers built the WTC. They named the towers after themselves. They built them FULL OF ASBESTOS. These are facts.
The asbestos filled towers were a $12 – $15 BILLION liability of Dresser (see GHW Bush family). When Cheney was CEO of Halliburton, he made the world’s worst investment, acquiring Dresser just prior to the announcement of massive asbestos liability claims against it. HE KNEW in advance that he was making what on its face appeared to be a horrible investment.
As one would surmise, Halliburton’s stock was crushed upon the revelation that the asbestos liabilities that Cheney had acquired to save the Bush Family’s bacon would now cost Halliburton billions. Not to worry. The insiders had a plan – a direct quid pro quo – that REQUIRED that GW and Cheney be installed in the White House to implement. Keep in mind that throughout the Bush/Cheney administration, it was actually GHW calling all the shots.
Now let’s look a level above at who they all really work for – David Rockefeller.
Rockefeller built the towers, and they had become a massive liability of the NY Port Authority – which he surely controls from on high. The cost to dismantle the towers was astounding. The only option for a heartless oligarch was to demolish them the old fashioned way, with well placed explosives, but there was no way to get that approved, in light of the fact that lower Manhattan would be buried in asbestos-filled concrete dust. It had to look like a terrorist act. This was their ONLY cost-effective solution. In fact, it was to become a HUGE moneymaker for the globalist oligarchs, and the solution to Likud’s expansionist desire to create “Eretz Israel,” all in one slick operation.
The co-conspirators included at the outset, David Rockefeller, Ken Lay, Dick Cheney, Don Rumsfeld, all operating at the behest of GHW Bush (the owner of the CIA). Bush enlisted his co-conspirators, Mossad, to implement the attacks, and installed agents as needed (such as Dov Zakheim) to ensure its success. FYI – Ken Lay’s job was to manipulate the California energy grid to ensure that the public would demand “energy experts” be installed in the White House.
For those on the inside with knowledge of the plan and results of the “blessed event,” they will tell you that the days was a total cock-up. The fact that WTC-7 was left standing until that evening (when it was clearly brought down by nothing other than high-explosives – following an actual countdown to demolition) was directly attributable to the fact that the plane shot down on Rumsfeld’s order over Pennsylvania was then not able to reach its intended target, WTC-7.
Do you realize how many in the Secret Service can confirm the truth of these statements? Thousands. Literally every highly placed official in DC knows this to be true. They also know that they all work for Rockefeller, and they are all being blackmailed by Israel.
Don’t take my word for it. Do your own research. It’s all over the Internet. Virtually everywhere.
It's time to publish a list of politicians in the U.S. government that have dual Israeli leadership so we can question whether they're loyal to America or Israel, based on their actions:
Leave it to Comedy Central to tell us that the same guy who funds the Mosque...funds FOX "news"!!!!!!!!!! So, will Tea Partiers and protesters protest FOX "news" as a "terrorist organization"? Naaaaah!!!! They're brain dead "American Idiots"!
The not Mosque at not Ground Zero brain dead American idiot hatemonger protesters harass black guy who looks like a Muslim...but isn't. Black? Muslim? Same difference. Can you say "lynch mob"????
Black Man Accosted At 'Mosque' Protest (extensive video, Cenk is the ONLY one who tells you EVERYTHING the black man said in the conversation...):
Glenn Greenwald: Opponents of the Park51 Islamic community center held a rally yesterday in Lower Manhattan, and a 4-minute video, posted below, reveals the true sentiments behind this campaign. It has little to do with The Hallowed Ground of the World Trade Center -- that's just the pretext -- and everything to do with animosity toward Muslims.
Glenn Greenwald explains on the Dylan Ratigan Show:
Why do Americans only talk about rightwing talking points in the so-called "liberal media"? Everything from stoking up hatred towards Muslims, blacks, hispanics, women, Mosques, the unemployed, intellectuals, colleges and universities, welfare recipients...and ginning up support for tax cuts for the rich, raising the Social Secutiry retirement age, continuing the wars, continuing paying $2.5 BILLION a week taxpayer money for the wars. Who is on the so-called "liberal media"? Dick and Liz Cheney, Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and rightwing, GOP pundits. Here's why: rightwing billionaires have financed FOX "news", rightwing think tanks such as CATO Institute, pundits such as Rush Limbaugh, and have taken over what was the "liberal media"...all the while having their guys still call it the "liberal media" (see the Koch family story above, too):
The Republican Noise Machine
David Brock, the reformed conservative noise-maker, on how the Right has sabotaged journalism, democracy, and truth.
As a young journalist in the 1990s, David Brock was a key cog the Republican noise machine. Writing for the American Spectator, a conservative magazine funded by billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife, Brock gained fame for his attack pieces on Anita Hill and President Bill Clinton. Then, in 2002, Brock came clean. In his memoir, Blinded by the Right, Brock admitted that his work was based on lies and distortion, and part of a coordinated smear campaign funded by wealthy right wing groups to discredit Clinton and confuse the public.
Since then, Brock has continued to expose the conservative media onslaught. In his newest book, The Republican Noise Machine, Brock documents how right-wing groups pressure the media and spread misinformation to the public. It's easy to see how this is done.
Fringe conspiracies and stories will be kept alive by outlets like Rush Limbaugh, the Washington Times, and the Drudge Report, until they finally break into the mainstream media.
Media groups like Brent Bozell's Media Research Center have spent 30 years convincing the public that the media is, in fact, liberal. As Brock says, it's all asham: "I have seen, and I know firsthand, indeed from my own pen, how the organized Right has sabotaged not only journalism but also democracy and truth."
Outfoxed examines how media empires, led by Rupert Murdoch's Fox News, have been running a "race to the bottom" in television news. This film provides an in-depth look at Fox News and the dangers of ever-enlarging corporations taking control of the public's right to know.
Before the Mosque was bad, it was "OK" to conservatives back in this December clip...before they decided to flip the switch on their sheeple followers:
Here's when rightwing media and the GOP decided to flip the switch:
Above: Pam Geller pictured with her female hatemonger protege Ann Coulter.
Instead of talking about the Mosque, let's talk about who let 9/11 happen: the Bush administration!
Charlton Heston back the Mosque:
From his cold, dead mouth, Charlton Heston supports the Mosque:
Charlton Heston: "It is forgotten that we are first, Americans. I am asking all of us on both sides to take one step back from the edge. Then another step. And another. However many it takes to get back to that place where we are all Americans. Different, imperfect, diverse, but one nation, indivisible. This cycle of tragedy-driven hatred must stop. Because so much more connects us than that which divides us. And because tragedy has been and will always be with us. Somewhere right now evil people are planning evil things. All of us will do everything meaningful, everything we can do to prevent it. But each horrible act can't become an axe for opportunists to cleave the very bill of rights that binds us. America must stop this predictable pattern of reaction, when an isolated terrible event occurs...Now, if you disagree, that's your right. I respect that. But we will not relinquish it or be silenced about it, or be told, "Do not come here. You are unwelcome in your own land." Let us go from this place, from this huge room, renewed in spirit and dedicated against hatred. We have work to do, hearts to heal, evil to defeat, and a country to unite. We may have differences, and we will again suffer tragedy almost beyond description. But when the sun sets on Denver tonight, and forever more, let it always set on We, the People. Secure in our land of the free and home of the brave. "
Well, actually it was his speech saying that despite the tragedy of the Columbine shootings, all gun owners shouldn't be demonized and they should still give their annual convention next to Columbine, despite cries of being insensitive. Just as conservatives won't tell about Republican president Eisenhower's "beware of the military industrial complex" speech, they won't tell you about this speech from their hero Charlton Heston:
How appropriate: your democracy is PAC-MAN...in case you haven't noticed, we don't have a democracy with proven easily hackable electronic voting machines -
San Diego Woman WikiActivated by 'Collateral Murder' Video: "I think he's a hero and we should all recognize that. ... I think we are starting to understand the war in a way we never understood before. ...

I'm standing up for the best interest of America." -- Loraine Reitman, Bradley Manning Support Network
Thanks for your post EdwardTeller! I always love reading your diaries, and your comments. I would concur with your analysis. I didn’t want to start dishing out on Rayne, and in my comment I was not taking sides with anyone here. But I do make the same point as you. Perhaps this was a misunderstanding on the part of some as to Rayne’s intentions. Until I see my posts and comments “disappear” and my favorite links broken, I will not jump to the conclusion that Jane or FDL or Rayne have been targeted by CAMERA or the Foxman ADL or AIPAC or others to shut down the I/P debate. I will hope that no matter the pressure exerted by a foreign intelligence agency upon US Citizens to freely express their political opinions, trade in facts, and discuss relevant current events, that we will continue to resist such pressure and hold true to our First Amendment.
It is disturbing to me that a foreign nation can exert so much influence over our elected representatives. IT is no comfort to see that our largest media outlets can also be so easily bought and silenced. But when it starts to impact our individual rights as citizens to speak, then I think the real curtain starts to fall. People will begin to finally realize (who haven’t already) that something nefarious has taken place.
I am Jewish (well, the State of Israel won’t recognize it) as is my wife (who the State of Israel not only DOES recognize, but because she is a Citizen, my children are subject to being drafted into the IDF upon return at 18 if we don’t get them exempted). So, I know first hand how hateful and spiteful the regime in Israel has become on matters of Orthodoxy and “true” Jewishness. My marriage would not be recognized in Israel (well, none of my Rabbi’s marriages would be recognized there, even though he spent most of his adult life training and becoming ordained, and even though he is as “ethnically pure” as it gets… but because he wears the robes of the Reform tradition, he is not welcome).
I could go on, with more bitter herbs in my mouth over how “second-class” I’ve been treated by the Israeli consulate here in this nation, but I will leave it at that for now. Let me just say that the descent of Israel into this madness should be opposed by all of us within the Tribe or without (depending on who’s specific defintion of “Jewish” you want to use… mine and my wife’s, or the Orthodox rabbinate that now runs Israel). The same can be said for whose definition of Zionist you want to use.
I have a father in law in Israel who settled in the Kibbutz at the age of 15, with his future wife, fleeing a Germany that had itself descended into madness. He did not settle in ISrael and help found that Kibbutz on the grounds of racial superiority, hatred, or apartheid. He is in his last days, and he has openly said he wants to just be done. He is so tired and sick of what has happened to the nation he helped settle, he is so upset and feels betrayed by how much of the dream of a democratic, religiously tolerant nation has turned into a mirror image of what he fled.
Those are his words. Not that he has many words left these days. This was not what he fought for. And I have to agree. And I have to ask my fellow Americans if the current state of our nation is what we fought for? Is it what our ancestors fought for? Was the intimidation of America by an Orthodox Jewish rabbinate what we fought for?
The two states of America and Israel are not intricately intertwined with one another. Our fates are becoming collective and shared. We are fighting wars with American blood for the sake of Israeli regional hegemony. The left and more dovish members of the Israeli citizenry (and those denied such citizenship) are in the same boat as the “professional left” of America. Despised, vilified, and on the run.
So, until FDL shuts me down, I hold out hope that FDL is staying true to the mission, and I will give Rayne the benefit of the doubt that this was a misunderstanding through a digital medium and that the intention was not to shut down this thread. I notice we are all stilll posting and being allowed to use links, so my hope is being confirmed by the actions of the editor so far.
MATT SIMMONS dead - Heart attack WEAPON by the ELITES?
LA Times corporation sides with another corporation, Target, against MoveOn.org's Target advertizement, and also adds that they were for the military against MoveOn's Petraeus ad. What a shocker! This blog is all about pointing out that the mainstream media is controlled and represents 3 things: the wealthiest, corporations, and the military industrial complex...and is not "liberal". "Liberals" don't own the mainstream media, 5 corporations own it. How many times have I said that? You can search my blog. So, what a shocker that the LA Times editorial backs Target and General Petraeus vs. MoveOn. I hope you are starting to believe me.
The LA Times thinks it's "distasteful" that MoveOn attacks Target for giving $$$ to an anti-gay candidate...but the actual anti-gay candidate and Target aren't "distasteful" and thanks to the activist conservative supreme court, corporations are "people" who can give unlimited $$$ to candidates, but that's not "distasteful" either:
The dumbing down of America: "News" for retards - The Mosque (that's not a Mosque) at Ground Zero (that's not at Ground Zero) on the liberal media (that's not liberal) is going to be a terrorist training headquarters and is connected to Iran...because a guy on FOX "news" held up a giant index card he made with yellow highlights that said so...pretty soon, the only people who watch FOX "news" will be people with 2nd grade mentality who believe some guy holding up a hand printed highlighted index card he made himself is "news". Here's what retards think: we should attack IRAN because some guy on FOX "news" held up an index card on which he printed "IRAN" and highlighted it in yellow. Or maybe Glenn Beck wrote "IRAN" on a chalkboard or "ALLAH", so we should attack them. The people who are insensitive toward Muslims, gays, lesbians, blacks, hispanics, women, the unemployed...say it's insensitive to the 9/11 victims to build a Mosque! They are never insensitive! Only if you control the media, can you get away with saying something so asinine that goes unchallenged. You know how people on the right, Tea Partiers, etc...are always whining that the left are "intellectuals" making fun of them? The fact is we're just "average". But to a RETAAAAAHD who watches "news" with guys writing on index cards and Glenn Beck writing on a chalkboard, I guess "average" seems like "intellectual". I now think I understand what they mean when they call us "intellectuals" (re: NOT RETARDED like they are). Maybe no one's telling them they're FUCKING RETARDS! Maybe that's the problem! They have us convinced we can't say the truth about them or we're "insensitive intellectuals". While they're busy with their insensitive non-stop attacks against their fellow Americans who are Muslims, gays, lesbians, hispanics, blacks, women, the unemployed...maybe we should be calling them what they are: FUCKING RETARDS!!! Maybe that'll stop 'em!!!
Above right: the "mosque" is tied to IRAN, because that guy held up an index card he hand printed that said "IRAN" on it highlighted in yellow........because he thinks you're retarded!!! (who's the hot "news" chick with him, btw?) He has his sleeves rolled up, so he must be a "regular Joe 6-pack" that you can believe!
"News" on FOX "news" is now guys writing on index card and chalkboards for 2nd graders and retarded adults - stick figures and drawings are easier to understand for retards...look at the scary ALLAH that Glenn Beck drew...BOOOO!!!! SCARED YA:
News Ethics: Can Ruppert Murdoch's News Corps "news" outlets be unbiased and full disclosure (FOX "news", Dow Jones, NY Post), if they just gave ONE MILLION DOLLARS to the Republican Governors' Association?
A former executive editor of the New York Times has charged the president of Fox News, Roger Ailes, with "using the network to conduct a propaganda campaign against the Obama administration -- a campaign without precedent in our modern political history."
"Through clever use of the Fox News Channel and its cadre of raucous commentators, Ailes has overturned standards of fairness and objectivity that have guided American print and broadcast journalists since World War II," Howell Raines wrote in an op-ed in the Washington Post.
"Yet, many members of my profession seem to stand by in silence as Ailes tears up the rulebook that served this country well as we covered the major stories of the past three generations, from the civil rights revolution to Watergate to the Wall Street scandals," Raines continued.

Noam Chomsky: "The Myth of the 'Liberal Media' - Manufacturing Consent" -
If the media is "liberal", and they have 8 years of hundreds if not thousands of video clips of George W. Bush extolling the virtues of Islam and Muslims, why aren't they playing them??? Have you seen these on TV? Or do you see Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich Mosque-bashing? George W. Bush can be found ducking the media on this issue.
President George W. Bush said "Islam is a noble faith"
"Islam brings hope and comfort",says President George W.Bush
American Idiot - people who watch FOX "news" and repeat whatever they say like bashing Mosques, Muslims, blacks, hispanics, gays, lesbians, the unemployed, people without health care...you know, our fellow Americans:
(don't wanna be an American idiot, don't want a nation under the new MEDIA (rightwing media with mainstream media only talking about rightwing talking points), hey can you hear the sound of hysteria? the subliminal mind fuck America)
"American Idiot" Don't want to be an American idiot. Don't want a nation under the new media And can you hear the sound of hysteria? The subliminal mind fuck America. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. Well maybe I'm the faggot America. I'm not a part of a redneck agenda. Now everybody do the propaganda. And sing along to the age of paranoia. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue. Don't want to be an American idiot. One nation controlled by the media. Information age of hysteria. It's calling out to idiot America. Welcome to a new kind of tension. All across the alien nation. Where everything isn't meant to be okay. Television dreams of tomorrow. We're not the ones who're meant to follow. For that's enough to argue.
