I LIKE JOE


This is EXACTLY what is wrong with this administration and with the media. Biden is asked a question... he gives an honest answer... (one, frankly, that i agree with)and next thing you know, the honest answer isn't any good... everyone is backtracking. How about the truth? The truth is... I too, would only get onto mass transit in any area with swine flu exposure if i had NO other option. I understand mexico not wanting to lose tourist dollars,and airlines not wanting to lose passengers, and pig farmers not wanting to lose money... but how about you just give us the truth and we'll do what we think is right for ourselves and our loved ones. As awalys i have more faith in the average American than i do in Washington... it's just that this time i agreed with a deomocrat... or at least i agreed with what he said before they decided that the truth couldn't be told. (P.S. do you think all of the green environmentalists were concerned with Biden's comments because people might get into their cars and drive themselves?)

THIS IS THE A.P. STORY, NOTE SPIN.

Oh, Joe: VP's off-base flu advice needs do-over
By NANCY BENAC – 57 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden — with a well-deserved reputation as someone who shoots from the lip — made it through the first 100 days of the Obama administration without any major gaffes. But on Day 101 the vice president, well, took a nose dive when it came to the government's talking points on air travel during the swine flu outbreak.

At 7:05 a.m. Thursday, Biden was asked on NBC's "Today" show what advice he would give to a family member who was considering flying to Mexico.

"I would tell members of my family — and I have — I wouldn't go anywhere in confined places now," Biden said. "It's not that it's going to Mexico. It's you're in a confined aircraft. When one person sneezes, it goes all the way through the aircraft." Biden went on to say he wouldn't suggest that they ride the subway either.

Avoid all airline travel? Don't ride the subway?

Cue the backpedaling.

At 8:47 a.m., Biden's office put out a statement gamely trying to rewrite the vice president's words:

"The advice he is giving family members is the same advice the administration is giving to all Americans: that they should avoid unnecessary air travel to and from Mexico," said Biden spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander. "If they are sick, they should avoid airplanes and other confined public spaces, such as subways."

By 10 a.m., Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano had supplied her own do-over for the VP:

"If he could say that over again, he would say if they're feeling sick they should stay off of public transit or confined spaces because that is indeed the advice that we're giving," Napolitano said on MSNBC.

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who takes the subway to work every day, also tried to channel the vice president.

"I think what Joe Biden was talking about was, it is true if you have all these symptoms, we recommend you stay home," Bloomberg said.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs also tried to close the gap that Biden left between "what he said and what he meant to say."

"If anybody was unduly alarmed for whatever reason, we would apologize for that," Gibbs added.

The people who provide and promote travel on planes and trains were not amused.

There was "extreme disappointment." There was talk of "fear-mongering." There was gentle scolding. There was clarification.

For the record, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Web site says this: "CDC has NOT recommended that people avoid travel at this time."

It does recommend that people avoid nonessential travel to Mexico, the flu's epicenter, and that those who are sick stay home.

With Biden's track record of impolitic remarks, it was only a matter of time before he found himself trying to eat his words as vice president.

President Barack Obama knew that going in. He praised his running mate's candor and made light of Biden's penchant for "rhetorical flourishes."

When they were still presidential rivals, Biden apologized for describing Obama as "articulate" and "clean," remarks that some thought had racial overtones.

Biden also had to defend his remark that "you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent."

He has been surprisingly disciplined since the inauguration — although when he joked about Chief Justice John Roberts flubbing Obama's oath of office, Obama didn't crack a smile.

That's just Joe.

"Sometimes maybe I shouldn't be as straightforward as I am," Biden said Sunday on CBS' "60 Minutes."

"I am who I am."

I LIKE BOTH OF THESE WOMEN



I LIKE BOTH OF THESE WOMEN. AND IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK... WELL THE TOP IS MISS CALIFORNIA. LET'S SEE SHE ANSWERED A VERY TOUGH QUESTION ABOUT GAY MARRIAGE WITH KINDNESS AND HONESTY (SOMETHING THE PUNK WHO ASKED THE QUESTION DIDN'T DESERVE). AND SINCE THEN SHE'S HAD TO ENDURE THE SMEAR JOBS OF THE LEFT (ENHANCEMENT IS NOBODY'S BUSINESS. SHE'S A MODEL AND SHE POSED IN UNDERWEAR. SO?)

THE BOTTOM PHOTO IS SUSAN BOYLE... A LATE BLOOMING GREAT SINGING TALENT WHO'S STORY WARMS YOUR HEART. WHO SAYS IT ALL COMES DOWN TO "PRETTY". THERE ARE MANY KINDS OF PRETTY. RICHARD

BLUE JACKETS


The name "Blue Jackets" was chosen to celebrate "patriotism, pride, and the rich Civil War history in the state of Ohio and city of Columbus."[58] When President Abraham Lincoln requested that Ohio raise ten regiments at the outbreak of the Civil War, the state responded by raising a total of 23 volunteer infantry regiments for three months of service. Ohio also produced a number of great Civil War figures, including William Tecumseh Sherman, Ulysses S. Grant, Philip Sheridan, and George Custer. Columbus itself was host to large military bases, Camp Chase and Camp Thomas, which saw hundreds of thousands of Union soldiers and thousands of Confederate prisoners during the Civil War.

EVERYMAN'S WAR


I will be introducing several films this weekend as part of THE INDIE SPIRIT FILM FESTIVAL.

http://www.indiespiritfilmfestival.org

The Indie Spirit Film Festival is an annual event for filmmakers (professionals and students) and film lovers alike, with a superb program of feature films, shorts, docs, animation, and many other films from around the world.

Indie Spirit also has a sub-theme in which Native American films are showcased. A portion of the proceeds from the ticket sales for Native American films will be donated to social programs at reservations across North America.

Indie Spirit is about filmmakers establishing a relationship with audiences, distributors, and other filmmakers.

Currently, Colorado Springs is very fortunate to have two major film festivals (Rocky Mountain Woman's Film Festival and Pikes Peak Lavender Film Festival) which turn out hundreds to thousands of people annually; however, this will be Colorado Springs first film festival that welcomes filmmakers to submit films who are of any age, gender, or sexual orientation. It is truly a festival open to anyone who has a good quality film to present.

One film that will be screening is based on a crucial battle during World War Two.

Everyman's War (2009)
As the seasoned infantry and tank units of the German 11th Panzer "Ghost" division move silently into position on the snow covered hills around Nennig Germany ,a battle weary GI and his unit stand ready to defend the small town, a key position in the Allied advance to win the war. Outgunned and outnumbered, S/ Sgt Don Smith (Cole Carson) struggles to find hope and courage against overwhelming odds in one of the decisive confrontations in the "Battle of the Bulge" during WWII. His squad of GI's of the 94th Infantry Division lay dug in on the ridge-line outside of town. No one in high command believed that German forces would attack in the sub zero temperatures and near blizzard conditions. As the pre-dawn attack comes, with communications down Sgt. Smith is left with no choice but to make his way through enemy fire, unarmed and wounded, into town and warn of the coming attack. Based on actual accounts "Everyman's War" explores the heroic events of this decorated veterans courage and the struggle between duty and desire. Between the prospect of the life and love, Dorine (Lauren Bair) that waits at home and the harsh realities of war which marks the pivotal epoch in his life as he discovers that the loss of hope can be worse than the loss of life. One man's courage...One man's hope...Everyman's War. An ensemble cast including Mike Prosser, Sean McGrath, Erik Reid and Brian Julian bring the authenticity of this company of Gi's in war ravaged Germany to life.

THIS GUY CALLED THE TEA PARTY A KLAN RALLY

Richard,

I'm sorry you took my "Klan Rally" remark in the wrong way. It was not meant as a political statement regarding prejudice only that the preponderance of attendees were white.

Your sensitivity appears to ratchet up when such illustrations are made about the conservative white community.

The history of your remarks about President Obama after the election are clearly biased and directed towards your perceived audience. But I always thought you enjoyed spirited debate and I felt disappointed that you were unable to address my question in real time and felt it necessary to cut me off. This does not speak well for your ability to handle dissent.

However, I am prepared to continue our tenuous relationship and bring to your attention much that will, in the future, be ignored or downplayed by the conservative right.

I hope that you will accept my reasoning.

Rick

LATEST ON OBAMA LAWSUIT

Berg states Hollister case has been ‘Appealed’
as Opinion is so ‘outrageous’ and Sanction imposed was ‘totally unfair’
Judge showed his total bias since case was filed
We will be successful on Appeal !
Spread the word !




(Lafayette Hill, PA – 04/09209) - Philip J. Berg, Esquire, the first Attorney who filed suit against Barack H. Obama challenging Senator Obama's lack of Constitutional "qualifications/eligibility" to serve as President of the United States and his cases that are still pending, Berg vs. Obama [2 cases – 1 under seal] and Hollister vs. Soetoro a/k/a Obama, et al announced today that an Appeal has been filed in the Hollister case for several reasons.



Judge James Robertson showed his bias from the time the case was filed: 1) Berg and Joyce filed Motion for Admission Pro Hac Vice and Judge Robertson stated he would hold in abeyance until we appeared in front of him ……….and then he would make a decision if we should be admitted…….; 2) Judge Robertson never scheduled a Hearing regarding our Motion Pro Hac Vice; 3) Judge Robertson was aware our local Washington, DC attorney, age 84, was not computer savvy; 4) Judge Robertson issued two [2] Orders, one [1] with two [2] days to respond and one [1] with one [1] day to respond, Motions that we responded to because others made us aware.



The decision by Judge Robertson in dismissing our case showed further his bias as he made statements that were totally untrue and no evidence thereof had been presented. Specifically, Judge Robertson stated how Obama’s citizenship has been “vetted, blogged, texted, twittered” during the two years of his campaign. This statement regarding Obama is so outrageous as Obama was never vetted or otherwise questioned.



Further, Judge Robertson keeps referring to Obama being “Native-born,” a new term in the efforts to justify Obama’s citizenship. The Constitution and all lawsuits attempting to discover the “truth” about Obama refer to the words in the Constitution, that being “Natural Born.”



Without testimony being presented, Judge Robertson decides our Interpleader case is “frivolous,” a decision that we completely differ with.



Judge Robertson refers to attorney Joyce and myself as “agents provocateurs.” I am honored by this designation because it shows that we are determined to expose the HOAX of Obama, the greatest HOAX upon the citizens of the United States in the history of our country, over 230 years.



The imposition of sanctions by way of a “Reprimand” to our local counsel, John D. Hemenway, Esquire was uncalled for and another attempt by Judge Robertson to stop the legitimate search for the truth about Obama’s citizenship.

The following remarks by Margaret Calhoun Hemenway are right on point, “This is not a political issue – it is a legal issue and one of paramount national importance. Some question the wisdom of "undoing" an election if Obama's doubters are proven right. My father-in-law has lived through a World War, an actual impeachment and a President who was forced to resign under threat of impeachment – the nation survived, without chaos. The greatest danger to our freedom is disrespect for the Constitution and a President, who by his failure to provide evidence of his eligibility for the Presidency, evidently doesn't believe the rules should apply to him.”

Berg continued, “The Obama candidacy is the biggest "HOAX" perpetrated on the citizens of the United States in 230 years, since our nation was established. Obama must be legally removed from office.

I believe that 10 to 15 million people are aware of the Obama 'HOAX,' and we must make 75 million people aware. When people are made aware of the Obama 'HOAX,' that Obama has not proven he is constitutionally 'qualified/eligible' to be President; that Obama has not produced his original (vault version) 'Birth Certificate;' that Obama has not produced legal documents to show he legally changed his name from his 'adopted' name of 'Barry Soetoro' from Indonesia; they will demand Obama be removed from his office of President of the United States."



Berg concluded, "I am proceeding for the 305 + million people in 'our' U.S.A., for 'our' forefathers and for the tens of thousands of men and women that have died and/or been maimed defending our Constitution, with our legal fight to prove that Obama is not constitutionally qualified/eligible to be President."



The following is an update on my three [3] pending cases regarding my challenge to Obama's lack of qualifications/eligibility to be President.



Also, I am preparing to file a 4th case - Quo Warranto [challenge person in office - that does not meet the qualifications].



As you know, I was the first to legally raise the issue - having filed my lawsuit on August 21, 2008, before the DNC Convention



Status of Cases:



Berg vs. Obama, Third Circuit Court of Appeals No. 08 – 4340

Brief have been filed by all parties.

This is case that was dismissed in U.S. District Court, Eastern District of PA

Judge Surrick dismissed for lack of "standing" by Philip J. Berg

This is case that I bypassed Third Circuit to U.S. Supreme Court - where U.S. Supreme Court denied several Injunctions and to hear case.

However, case is still alive in Third Circuit.

Oral argument is scheduled for the end of May 2009.



Berg vs. Obama, U.S. District Court

Case filed under seal on 11/07/08 – cannot be discussed



Hollister vs. Soetoro a/k/a Obama,

U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, No. 09-5080
U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, No. 08-cv-02254
This is the case of retired Air Force Colonel Hollister who is on lifetime Presidential recall.
Hollister needs to know if recalled by Soetoro/Obama - must he obey an Order by legal President or disobey the illegal Order by a constitutionally ineligible/unqualified "Usurper" President.
Case was dismissed and Sanction of “Reprimand” imposed on our local attorney.
Appeal has been filed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.

TAX DAY TEA PARTY

HERE IS THE LATEST ACCORDING TO THE EL PASO COUNTY REPUBLICAN PARTY

Colorado Springs Tax Day Tea Party
Change of Venue:
Event will take place at ACACIA PARK. Still beginning at NOON on Wednesday, April 15th.
PRESS RELEASE:
“Colorado Springs Tea Party”
Citizens Prepare to Gather in Protest of Wasteful Government Spending


NATIONAL- On April 15th the DontGo Movement (www.dontgomovement.com) in collaboration with Newt Gingrich, Michelle Malkin, Top Conservatives on Twitter, and Smart Girl Politics will be hosting Tax Day Tea Parties in every state in America. There are Tea Parties in over 150 cities that are going to occur on April 15th. The Colorado Springs Tea Party will start at the Pioneer Museum (215 South Tejon) at noon and march as a group to City Hall (107 North Nevada).

Insert Note: Bring signs and at least one nonperishable food item to donate to Care & Share Foodbank.


The Obama Stimulus, Omnibus, and Budget are borrowing or printing an unprecedented amount of money. It’s the largest giveaway in American History. Even the Congressional Budget Office says that the Stimulus Bill will create few jobs in 2009 and 2010, but will instead cause dangerously high levels of inflation as the Federal Government writes blank checks that our children and grandchildren will have to repay.


The goal of these protests is to call attention to the unprecedented wasteful spending by the Obama Administration and Democrats in Congress. In the spirit of showing that people would rather help their neighbors out in times of crisis through charity than government bureaucracy, we are also holding a food drive, with all food items going to Care and Share Foodbank.

BROTHERS AT WAR

Richard here... says you can see this at Tinseltown 20. I give it 5 stars.

or visit bothersatwarmovie.com



BROTHERS AT WAR is an intimate portrait of an American family during a turbulent time. Jake Rademacher sets out to understand the experience, sacrifice, and motivation of his two brothers serving in Iraq. The film follows Jake’s exploits as he risks everything—including his life—to tell his brothers’ story. Often humorous, but sometimes downright lethal, BROTHERS AT WAR is a remarkable journey where Jake embeds with four combat units in Iraq. Unprecedented access to U.S. and Iraqi combat units take him behind the camouflage curtain with secret reconnaissance troops on the Syrian border, into sniper "Hide Sites" in the Sunni Triangle, through raging machine gun battles with the Iraqi Army. Ultimately, the film follows his brothers home where separations and life-threatening work ripple through their parents, siblings, wives and children. BROTHERS AT WAR provides a rare look at the bonds and service of our soldiers on the frontlines and the profound effects their service has on the loved ones they leave behind.
