Mitt Romney would restore ‘Anglo-Saxon’ relations between Britain and America 24 Jul 2012 Mitt Romney would restore “Anglo-Saxon” understanding to the special relationship between the US and Britain, and return Sir Winston Churchill’s bust to the White House, according to advisers. As the Republican presidential challenger accused Barack Obama of appeasing America’s enemies in his first foreign policy speech of the US general election campaign, advisers told The Daily Telegraph that he would abandon Mr Obama’s “Left-wing” coolness towards London. In remarks that may prompt accusations of racial insensitivity, one suggested that Mr Romney was better placed to understand the depth of ties between the two countries than Mr Obama, whose father was from Africa.

Mitt Romney’s Olympics blunder stuns No 10 and hands gift to Obama
Mitt Romney’s Olympics blunder stuns No 10 and hands gift to Obama 26 Jul 2012 Mitt Romney handed Barack Obama a potential gift for the US presidential election campaign when the presumptive Republican nominee blundered on his first diplomatic outing by questioning whether London was capable of staging a successful Olympic Games. In a move that astonished Downing Street, hours before it laid on a special reception for Romney at No 10, he told NBC there were “disconcerting” signs about the preparations for the Games. One senior Whitehall source said: “What a total shocker. We are speechless.” David Cameron wasted no time in rebuking Romney hours after his remarks were broadcast. On a visit to the Olympic Park, the prime minister said: “We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities in the world. Of course it’s easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere.”
Mom names twins after Obama, Romney (Mitt was No. 2)
The election has triggered a new generation of Barack Obamas and one Mitt Romney, with parents in Kenya naming their newborns after the newly re-elected president and his defeated rival, Mitt Romney.
At the Nyanza Provincial General Hospital in Kisumu, western Kenya, Obama’s ancestral homeland, several mothers named their babies after the first African-American president and Romney, just hours after the official announcement that Obama had been re-elected.
Millicent Awuor, 20, named her newly born twins Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.
“I gave birth to twins, and I decided to name them after Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. I named the first twin Barack and the second one Mitt just the way Obama and Romney performed in the US election,” said Awuor, a housewife.

US President Barack Obama has a stern warning for the country of Syria. In an address made early Monday, the commander-in-chief confirmed that he has not ruled out an offensive strike on Bashar al-Assad and his regime.
Speaking from the White House, President Obama said that if Syria is able to procure chemical or biological weapons, the United States will follow through with its threat of launching an attack.
Responding to a question about America’s current attitudes towards Assad, Obama said that the United States will not tolerate any efforts to allow Syria or any other countries to come into possession of weapons of mass destruction.
Biden, in leaked memo, told Obama war plan flawed
Biden, in leaked memo, told Obama war plan flawed 25 Jun 2012 As President Barack Obama considered adding as many as 40,000 U.S. forces to a backsliding war in Afghanistan in 2009, Vice President Joe Biden warned him that the military rationale for doing so was flawed, a new book about Obama’s expansion of the conflict says. The book, “Little America: The War Within the War for Afghanistan,” also says that in planning the drawdown of troops two years later, the White House intentionally sidelined the CIA. Obama purposely did not read a grim CIA assessment of Afghanistan that found little measurable benefit from the 30,000 “surge” forces Obama eventually approved, the book quotes a U.S. official as saying.
Bombshell: The Real Reason Barack Obama And Michele Lost Their Law License
(David Herold) I am reposting for those who have missed it.
FORMER LAWYERS?
I knew they had both lost their law license, but I didn’t know why until I read this.
This is 100% legit. I check it out at www.iardc.org/ Stands for Illinois Attorney Registration And Disciplinary Committee. It’s the official arm of lawyer discipline in Illinois ; and they are very strict. (Talk about irony.) Even I, at the advanced age of almost 65, maintain (at the cost of approximately $ 600/year) my law license that I worked so hard and long to earn.
Big surprise.
Former Constitutional Law Lecturer and U.S. President Makes Up Constitutional Quotes During State Of The Union (SOTU) Address.
Consider this:
1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is no longer a “lawyer”. He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application. A “Voluntary Surrender” is not something where you decide “Gee, a license is not really something I need anymore, is it?” and forget to renew your license. No, a “Voluntary Surrender” is something you do when you’ve been accused of something, and you ‘voluntarily surrender” your license five seconds before the state suspends you.
2 Michelle Obama “voluntarily surrendered” her law license in 1993. after a Federal Judge gave her the choice between surrendering her license or standing trial for Insurance fraud!
3. Facts.Source:
4. A senior lecturer is one thing, a fully ranked law professor is another. Barack Obama was NOT a Constitutional Law Professor at the University of Chicago .
5. The University of Chicago released a statement in March 2008 saying Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) “served as a professor” in the law school-but that is a title Obama, who taught courses there part-time, never held, a spokesman for the school confirmed in 2008.
6. “He did not hold the title of Professor of Law,” said Marsha Ferziger Nagorsky, an Assistant Dean for Communications and Lecturer in Law at the University of Chicago School of Law.

7. The former Constitutional Senior Lecturer (Obama) cited the U.S. Constitution the other night during his State of the Union Address. Unfortunately, the quote he cited was from the Declaration of Independence … not the Constitution.
8. The B-Cast posted the video: www.breitbart.tv/
9. Free Republic : In the State of the Union Address, President Obama said: “We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all created equal.
10. Um, wrong citing, wrong founding document there Champ, I mean Mr. President. By the way, the promises are not a notion, our founders named them unalienable rights. The document is our Declaration of Independence and it reads:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
11. And this is the same guy who lectured the Supreme Court moments later in the same speech?

Obama asserts executive privilege in Holder case
Obama asserts executive privilege in Holder case 20 Jun 2012 President Barack Obama asserted executive privilege Wednesday to withhold documents on a ‘gun-smuggling’ probe, sharpening a battle between the White House and Congress over efforts to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt. The claim of executive privilege, announced in a letter from Holder’s deputy to Representative [hypocrite] Darrell Issa, came on the day Issa chaired a House deliberation on whether to hold Holder in contempt over failure to hand over sufficient documents related to a flawed program that saw guns knowingly smuggled across the border to Mexico. The program [which began under the Bush regime and was stopped by Eric Holder] called “Fast and Furious” was a botched government effort to track arms flows into Mexico, and Republicans have seized on trying to determine exactly when Holder knew of the program destroy an African American Attorney General.
Barack Obama Manchurian Candidate
Eyewitnesses: Mitt Romney Attended Bilderberg 2012
(INFOWARS) Four separate eyewitnesses inside the Westfields Marriott hotel in Chantilly Virginia told London Guardian writer Charlie Skelton that Mitt Romney was in attendance at Bilderberg 2012, suggesting the Republican candidate could be the elite’s pick for the upcoming U.S. presidential election.
“Four eyewitnesses on the hotel staff told me Willard Mitt Romney was here at Bilderberg 2012. My four eyewitnesses place him inside. That’s one more than Woodward and Bernstein used. Romney’s office initially refused to confirm or deny his attendance as Bilderberg is “not public”. They later said it was not him,” writes Skelton.
The London Guardian writer adds that the fact Romney’s name did not appear on the official list of attendees is meaningless. Numerous power brokers, including Bill Gates, were photographed arriving at the event yet were not included on the list of participants, as is routinely the case.
With speculation already raging that Romney’s potential VP – Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels – was already being groomed by Bilderberg cronies, Romney’s appearance at the secretive confab of global power brokers suggests that he is being favored by the elite, who have seemingly lost faith in Barack Obama.
As Skelton noted in a separate report, on Saturday afternoon a limousine arrived at the hotel surrounded by a police motorcade, signaling the arrival of a “heavyweight politician”. Could this have been Mitt Romney? It’s unlikely given the fact that he was appearing at fundraisers on the west coast all weekend, but Romney’s schedule for Thursday, the first day of the Bilderberg meeting, was clear.
An invite to the Bilderberg conference has routinely proven beneficial to future Presidents and Prime Ministers.
Four years ago during a heated battle on the campaign trail, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton gave reporters the slip to attend the 2008 Bilderberg meeting at the same hotel. On precisely the same weekend as the confab was taking place, the Washington Post announced that Hillary was withdrawing from the presidential race and would support Obama.
Bill Clinton and Tony Blair were both groomed by the secretive organization in the early 1990′s before rising to prominence. Portugal’s Pedro Santana Lopes and Jose Socrates attended the 2004 meeting in Stresa, Italy before both going on to become Prime Minster of Portugal.
Bilderberg also played a key role in selecting John Edwards and John Kerry’s running mate in 2004 and Bilderberg luminary James A. Johnson also hand-picked Joe Biden as VP in 2008.
Confirmation that Romney attended Bilderberg 2012 may be hard to come by, but news that the former Governor of Massachusetts email account was compromised by a hacker could offer proof, although no emails have been leaked thus far.

CIA director beat up his deputy in front of Obama
CIA director beat up his deputy in front of Obama 05 Jun 2012 Former CIA Director Michael Hayden found an unusual way to show President-elect Barack Obama how the agency’s interrogation techniques worked during a December 2008 briefing: Hayden beat up his own deputy in front of the future commander-in-chief. ‘Kill or Capture’ is Daniel Klaidman’s new book released this week… “Not long into his presentation, Hayden called [Deputy DNU, David] Shedd over. Suddenly, unexpectedly, Hayden slapped Shedd’s face. Then he grabbed him by the lapels and started to shake him. He’d wanted to throw him up against the wall during the demonstration, but there were chairs in the way.” This was how then-CIA Director Michael Hayden persuaded President-elect Obama to think, hey, Guantanamo prisoners might not have it so rough after all.
Barack Obama ‘ordered Stuxnet cyber attack on Iran’
Barack Obama ‘ordered Stuxnet cyber attack on Iran’ 01 Jun 2012 President Barack Obama ordered the Stuxnet attack on Iran as part of a wave of cyber sabotage and espionage against the would-be nuclear power, according to a new book citing senior Washington sources. The computer virus, aimed at the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, was designed to damage centrifuges by making covert adjustments to the machines controlling them. It formed part of a “wave” of digital attacks on Iran codenamed “Olympic Games” and was created with the assistance of a secret Israeli intelligence unit, The New York Times said in a report based on a book chronicling secret wars under the Obama administration. The report confirms the suspicions of computer security experts who detected and forensically examined Stuxnet in 2010.

The Obama Flag: Who Decided That It Was Okay To Replace The Stars On The American Flag With The Face Of Barack Obama?
Barack Obama pushes for $1bn green tax credits
By: Suzanne Goldenberg, The Guardian
Another week, another car talk. Barack Obama stopped by a North Carolina truck factory on Wednesday to announce $ 1bn in tax credits and grants for alternative-energy cars and trucks. It was Obama’s third speech on cars and fuel in an election battleground state in three weeks.
The president has travelled from New Hampshire to Florida and now North Carolina to insulate himself from Republican attacks on rising gas prices and the on-again, off-again Keystone XL tar sand pipeline ahead of the general election.
“We can’t just keep on relying on the old ways of doing business. We can’t just rely on fossil fuels from the last century. We’ve got to continually develop new sources of energy,” Obama said in his speech at the Daimler truck plant in Mount Holly North Carolina.
The White House, briefing reporters on the plane and through a factsheet emailed out before the event, said Obama’s factory tour was intended to spur the development of a new generation of clean, fuel-neutral cars: electric, natural gas, and alternative fuels.
The Daimler plant is working to produce 18-wheeler trucks that use only half as much gas as current models. Long-haul trucks make up just 4% of all vehicles on the roads, according to the White House, but suck up 20% of all transport fuel in the country.
The factory also makes hydrogen-powered trucks.
The tax credits – which must be voted on by Congress – would help up to 15 cities and towns to pay for charging stations for electric cars and biofuel pumps for alternative fuel vehicles to encourage people to switch to electric cars.
“At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how much natural gas, or flex-fuel or electric vehicles you have if there’s no place to charge them up or fill them up,” Obama said.

“Watch Out For The Military-Industrial Complex” Ron Paul Wins Another Debate In South Carolina
The Republican Presidential Debate in South Carolina highlights the basic general problems we face in America today. One person can always change the world, but Ron Paul cannot save the country alone. Resistance towards the Military-Industrial Complex can restore the country to its founding principles. On January 16, 2012, Ron Paul got his chance to explain his views to the nation. In my personal opinion, Ron Paul was on fire during the South Carolina debate. He is the only Republican that I believe can beat Barack Obama in January, but more importantly he is the only candidate who is talking about issues that matter to American citizens. Issues such as ending the war in Afghanistan, bringing our troops home from military bases abroad, ending the Federal Reserve System, thus ending the crazy amounts of Federal taxes I pay every year, are all at the fore-front of the national debate. These issues will remain there if Ron Paul becomes the Republican nominee to challenge Barack Obama in November.
Ron Paul is consistent in his voting record, and insistent with this pledge to end wars and close bases overseas. Few of his supporters doubt he will lead the charge to end the Federal Reserve as we know it once he becomes president of the United States. Many citizens are cautious towards Ron Paul and doubt that he can stop the fall of our Republic. If they are cautious because of other politicians or political figures then their caution is not based on the actions of Ron Paul, but on stereo-types and generalizations where people, places, and things can be placed on a global chessboard and moved as submissive pieces under a New World Order. We should judge each person by their own deeds, not by the deeds of a collective group or associates and affiliates.
“After 9/11 I voted for the authority to go after [Osama bin Laden] and my frustration was that we didn’t go after him.” – Ron Paul
Congressman Paul vocalized the fact that we had Osama bin Laden cornered in Tora Bora. What other candidate has even mentioned Tora Bora?
During the South Carolina Republican Presidential Debate, Candidate Ron Paul was questioned by Gerald Seib, of The Wall Street Journal, about Paul’s plans to cut Defense spending by “several hundred billion dollars in the coming years that inevitably would cost South Carolina jobs. What do you say to people in this state who worry that your military plans would hurt the national security and cost South Carolina jobs?”
“I would say your question suggests you’re very confused,” responded Ron Paul, “about my position.” Seib focused on the importance of South Carolina’s “seven major military bases and thousands of people employed into the defense industry.” Seib was particularly interested in why Paul would want to cut defense spending that would surely put thousands of South Carolina citizens out of work. “I would probably have more bases at home,” Paul told Seib. Paul plans to cut Defense spending overseas, not at home as Seib was inferring.
Paul noted that he gets “twice as much money from the active military duties than all the other candidates put together. So they’re saying that I’m on the right track. They’re sick and tired of those wars. They’re sick and tired of the nation building and the policing activity.”
The Wall Street Journal executive editor reiterated his point that Ron Paul’s “plan calls for freezing defense spending at 2006 levels.”
Ron Paul immediately corrected the editor by responding, “You still don’t understand.” After a few seconds of laughter, Paul continued. “There’s a difference between military spending and defense spending. Just because you spend a billion dollars on an embassy in Baghdad, bigger than the Vatican, you consider that Defense spending. I consider that waste.” The crowd then erupted into cheers for common sense. Paul seized on the moment and explained that the first cuts he would make would be “some of this military spending, like Eisenhower advised us. Watch out for the Military-Industrial Complex. Defend this country. We have to have a strong national defense. But we don’t get strength by diluting ourselves in 900 bases, 130 countries. That is where the problem is.”
This is just one of the problems we face. The point is there are changes we can make as a country. The governmental process is the minimum we could be involved in, if we believe in our constitution and this nation. I don’t believe that this country is lost, but that doesn’t make me right. I still believe we can make a difference within the system, but we have to be willing to look outside of it as well.
A vote for Ron Paul could be a vote for freedom, for the Constitution, for the Republic, and for peace across the world. It could be. It may be. It’s up to us. Even if we think voting is a waste of time and will accomplish nothing, what does it hurt?
Is it submission to a tyrannical government? No more than any other form of submission; and if you live in America, in some form or fashion you are submitting to a tyrannical government. What can it hurt to vote for Ron Paul? Better yet, who can it hurt but Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, the establishment media, and the Military-Industrial Complex?
In theory, if Ron Paul truly is who some of us think he is, and as President will legislate and enforce the Constitution of the United States to the best of his ability, then we have a unique opportunity to once and for all end the Federal Reserve System; including the federal income tax on all United States citizens. What’s Paul’s answer as to how much federal income tax U.S. citizens should have to pay? “Up until 1913 it was zero percent. What’s so bad about that?”
Following up this point Paul added, “Any time you spend money it’s a tax. You might tax, you might borrow, you might inflate. The vicious tax that’s attacking the American people, the retired people today, is the inflation tax. The devaluation of the currency, the standard of living is going down, and you need to address that, and that’s why I want to make the inflation tax zero as well.”
Long ago, the United States changed its defensive strategy towards war into an an offensive one, with disastrous results. The warnings of a Military-Industrial Complex were heard loud and clear by people who grew up in Ron Paul’s era. It was and is their duty to pass this warning down to the younger generations. It’s important that people know what our government is doing as far as foreign policy is concerned.
“This idea that we can’t debate foreign policy, that all we have to do is start another war? It’s warmongering,” Congressman Paul tells the South Carolina audience. “They’re building up for another war against Iran and people can’t wait to get in another war. This country doesn’t need another war. We need to quit the ones we’re in.”
Asked about the direction of the nation, Paul responded, “I think we’re going in the wrong direction for the protections of our liberties at home. They’re under deep threat. The Patriot Act has eliminated the Fourth Amendment. We now have a policy of preemptive war. You don’t have to declare war, and you don’t even have to have an enemy. We can start the wars. That’s what preemptive war is all about. Now with the military appropriations defense act, this is major. This says that the military can arrest an American citizen for [being] under suspicion, and he can be held indefinitely without habeas corpus, and denied a lawyer indefinitely, even in a prison here [in America].”
Oh yeah, who else is talking about the Patriot Act?

Jon Huntsman on Monday formally suspended his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination and threw his support behind Mitt Romney, calling him the candidate best poised to beat President Obama in November. “I believe it is now time for our party to unite around the candidate best equipped to defeat Barack Obama,” Huntsman said from Myrtle Beach, S.C. “Despite our differences and the space between us on some of the issues, I believe that candidate is Mitt Romney.”
Obama sending 5 US military officers to South Sudan
Barack Obama is sending five American military officers to South Sudan amid recent outbreaks of violence in the newly independent African nation.
The White House said the U.S. forces will join the United Nations mission in the capital of Juba and focus on strategic planning and operations. They are not expected to engage in combat operations, but will be armed for personal protection.
Obama issued a memorandum Tuesday declaring that the U.S. officers could not be prosecuted by the International Criminal Court during their deployment because South Sudan is not a party to the ICC. The White House said prior administrations used similar designations when sending U.S. forces to United Nations missions in Haiti and Liberia.
The scaffolding of an American police state
The scaffolding of an American police state By Bill Van Auken 06 Jan 2012 With his December 31 signing of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), allowing for indefinite military detention without charges or trial, Barack Obama has made an infamous contribution to the steady march towards police-state dictatorship in the United States… As one of the legislation’s key Democratic sponsors, Senator Carl Levin of Michigan, revealed, the Obama White House intervened directly into the legislative process to kill amendments that would have specifically prohibited the military from indefinitely imprisoning US citizens without trial. It viewed such an exemption as an unacceptable restriction on presidential power.

3 New Hampshire Republican representatives question Obama’s background 04 Jan 2012 Three state representatives Tuesday asked the state Attorney General’s Office to launch an investigation to determine whether President Barack Obama meets the citizenship requirements to be President. Reps. Laurence Rappaport, R-Colebrook, and Carol and Lucien Vita, both R-Middleton, said they believe Obama is not eligible to be President because his father was not a U.S. citizen, and thus he would not be a natural-born citizen and could not serve as President.
