Navy SEALs Face Assault Charges for Capturing Most-Wanted Terrorist.

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And three of the SEALs who captured him are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.

Police are routinely arresting people simply to record their DNA profiles on the national database, according to a report published today.

It also states that three quarters of young black men are on the database. The finding risks stigmatising a whole section of society, the equality watchdog has warned.

The Crime and Security Bill heralded in last week’s Queen’s Speech proposes cutting to six years the time that innocent people’s profiles are kept. Those arrested but not charged, or those cleared in court, currently remain on the database for ever. There are no plans to reduce police powers to take samples from everyone arrested.

— — — — —
The finding not only risks “stigmatising a whole section of society”, the finding also risks inciting a civil war/race war with L.E. square in the middle.  But then again, that may be the goal of the left.

The implications are way too insane to contemplate and this kind of thing is easily part of Obama’s and Holder’s wet dream for ’some Americans’.

Obama To Mandate CO2 Target Before Copenhagen……….. And May Even Show Up To Proclaim He’s The Kwisatz Haderach (without the test to prove it).

http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-world/us-to-set-co2-target-before-copenhagen-20091124-jdfp.html
The United States will announce a target for reducing its greenhouse gas emissions before the UN climate conference in Copenhagen, removing a major obstacle to a deal, a senior official says.

The official refused to be drawn on specific numbers but the announcement was expected to be in line with legislation being debated in the US Senate that envisages a reduction of up to 20 per cent from 2005 levels by 2020.

He indicated that President Barack Obama would announce the target in the next few days along with a decision on whether he will fly to the Danish capital to give added impetus to efforts to seek a global treaty to replace the Kyoto Protocol.

Salita, an Orthodox Jew from Brooklyn, New York, meets British Muslim title holder Amir Khan on December 5 in Newcastle, England.

Mr. Salita should coat his gloves in a mix of pig urine and pig blood (making a video of it), then during the bout, inflict a cut to Mr. Khan’s face and then rub the gloves in as often as possible.  After the fight, present a gift-wrapped DVD of the recording to Mr. Khan.

http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-world/news-corp-microsoft-hold-talks-on-google-report-20091123-iu0b.html

News Corp, Microsoft Hold Talks On Google.

Microsoft has held talks with Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp over a possible plan for the software giant to pay the media company to remove its news websites from Google, a report said Monday.

The plan sets a scene for a battle between search engines for access to websites, and puts pressure on search juggernaut Google to start paying for content, the Financial Times said.

My initial instinct is to say: “Why would an uber-politically correct entity like Microsoft want to pay Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp (owner of Fox News) to de-list itself from a leftist-owned search engine used world-wide by an overwhelming majority of the planet’s computer and wireless device owners ?

Can’t be just to bump up their own search engine, can it ?  Could it be  that “somebody” is looking to limit global access to News Corp (owner of Fox News) and it’s many outlets’ fair and balanced reportage ?

Naaaaaah, nobody could ever think like that nowadays, especially when…….. Hold on a second, I need to adjust the new tin-foil hat…… It beeped three times, then moved a bit when I typed that last sentence.

Where was I……. Oh yeah……………

(More from the article)  “This is all about Microsoft hurting Google’s margin,” an unnamed source was quoted as saying.

However the biggest beneficiary of the tussle could be the newspaper industry which has yet to construct a reliable online business model to replace declining newspaper circulation and print advertising revenues.

Ahhhhh, the ever-popular unnamed source has popped it’s head above sea level…… Watch out for the rising oceans, unnamed source…… remember the climate change.

Oops, there’s that triple beep and hat shift again.

Anyway, I’m quite positive there’s nothing nefarious whatsoever in play here……. Just a simple business arrangement, that’s all.

Yeah, that’s the ticket… I ahhhhhhhh…. invented simple business deals…… yeah.

Congressman Patrick Kennedy (D-RI-1) Barred From Receiving Communion.

The nephew of former president John F. Kennedy, a US legislator, has been barred from receiving communion at his Catholic church due to his support for abortion rights, a newspaper reported on Sunday.

US Representative Patrick Kennedy, son of the late senator Edward Kennedy, was told of the move by Roman Catholic Bishop Thomas Tobin, according to The Providence Journal newspaper in the US state of Rhode Island.

================

A call was placed to the late Senator Ted Kennedy for comment and answered by St. Peter’s administrative assistant, who offered the following:  “The Senator is not here”, she then mumbled something about “downstairs” and disconnected the call.

Payback’s a serious beeee-yatch from up on high, isn’t it ?…….. and they’re still the Kennedy’s, thinking they’re owed everything solely because they’re the Kennedy’s.

Attention needs to be focused towards Congressman Patrick Kennedy’s sponsored legislation and/or his amendments to bills going forward.  You can bet there will be some very interesting items included vis-a-vie the Catholic Church and religion in general - my guess goes to tax statutes.

If Bishop Tobin indulges in any earthly pleasures such as cigars, it would be my honor to send him a box of his favs.

======================

Elected:  New President Of Europe & Foreign Minister.

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/134527

The European Union has elected Belgian Prime Minister Herman Van Rompuy as President Of Europe and The UK’s Baroness Catherine Ashton has been chosen for the post of Foreign Policy Minister.

Actual foreign policy experience for both ?

Hamas: ‘Israel Won’t Go to War Again’

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/134536

Israel will not go to war again, according to the Hamas terrorist organization, which claims the recent United Nations Goldstone Report has legally bound the IDF.

The report by retired South African Judge Richard Goldstone claimed that Israel was guilty of war crimes, and possibly even crimes against humanity during last winter’s Operation Cast Lead in Gaza. Goldstone led a fact-finding mission to Gaza following the war that Israel maintained was biased from the outset.

Hamas “Interior Minister” Fathi Hamad told reporters at a news conference on Saturday that the report, which was endorsed recently by the United Nations General Assembly, will prevent Israel from launching any more military operations in Gaza.

————

Hey Hamas:  Pop off a few sets of rockets every day for a week and have some squads of terrorists peace-loving martyr-types run some ops…. then see how fast “Israel won’t go to war again”.

Thousands of pro- and anti-government protesters took to the streets of Nicaragua’s capital Saturday, protesting and backing President Daniel Ortega’s bid to remain in power.

Chanting “Democracy yes, dictatorship no!” Ortega opponents numbered at 50,000 by organizers marched peacefully in Managua against his controversial re-election plans, even as thousands of the president’s supporters gathered for their own demonstration.

Security was heavy in the capital following provocative gestures earlier in the week by both sides which suggested there could be clashes between the two demonstrating groups when they march in the city.

The Internet can be a powerful medium for politicians to get their message across but it is also a vital means for civilians to have a say in what politicians do, participants in a political technology conference said Saturday.

Speakers at the Personal Democracy Forum in Barcelona highlighted President Barack Obama’s election as an example of how the Internet was affecting politics.

“It’s safe to say that Obama would not be president today if it had not been for the Internet,” said Scott Heifferman, co-founder of hugely successful U.S.-based Meetup Internet platform, which enables people to organize in local community groups.

“We will be sending Ambassador Bosworth to North Korea on December 8 to engage in direct talks with the North Koreans,” Obama told reporters after talks with South Korean President Lee Myung-Bak.
—————

I thought Ambassador Bosworth was going to North Korea on December 8th to engage in direct talks with a rainbow-painted unicorn that lives on a cloud of faerie dust.  Don’t tell me he’s actually going to speak to real Norks who just might force him to bow deeply 50 times before taking him prisoner for spying ?!?

My boss was out of the office all day and didn’t know about the tax increase until I told him this afternoon.  He thought I was kidding….. but only for about two or three seconds.

I wonder how many of us will be left when this takes effect…….. if the company still exists.

Netherlands:  ALL vehicles mandated to have GPS installed.  Big Brother is alive and well.

http://www.onenewsnow.com/AP/Search/Business/Default.aspx?id=768544

Dutch drivers will pay less to buy a car but will be charged tax on every mile on the road, a system the government says will reduce traffic jams, fatal accidents and carbon emissions.

The Cabinet approved a bill Friday calling for drivers of an average passenger car to pay a base rate of euro0.03 per 1 kilometer (7 US cents per mile), beginning in 2012. Drivers of heavier, more polluting vehicles will pay more, and the cost will go up for driving in peak hours.

GPS will track the time, hour and place each car moves and send the data to a billing agency.
— — — — — —

“……the government says will reduce traffic jams, fatal accidents and carbon emissions.”

Think it’s funny, eh ?  Can’t happen here, eh ?
If you have a vehicle with OnStar, you can be tracked RIGHT NOW and it”l get done completely WITHOUT your knowledge or consent.

What do you mean by “Huh ?”

General Motors owns OnStar.

The US Government - as in The Obama Administration - owns and controls General Motors.

Do the math.

Ignore those pesky laws and that totally out of date Constitution thingy.

The obvious next step is tracking citizens by GPS “to reduce carbon emissions”.

Former US president Bill Clinton said Saturday that “If Yitzchak [Rabin] had not been murdered, I believe we would have achieved peace in three years’ time, and created cooperation between Israel, Palestine and Lebanon.”

Clinton added: “In the past 14 years, not a single week has passed in which I did not think of Yitzchak Rabin, and missed him very much.”

— — — — — —

I’m kind of at a loss as to commentary here…….
………But I’ll try………

Mr. Clinton:

What part of “these Muslim theocratic murderers want every Jew dead and gone not from just Israel, but the entire planet” (and then they’ll start in earnest on Americans) don’t you understand ?

Mr. Rabin wouldn’t have mattered.  Ms. Meir wouldn’t have mattered.  Not even Charlton Heston parting the sea again would have mattered.

Y’all keep on talkin’, talkin’, talkin’ and when the merde encounters the ventilateur, you’d best stand back because real leaders will take charge and save your hide as well as freedom itself.

You won’t owe anybody anything, because the look on your face when you realize you’ve been wrong about everything forever will be payment enough for folks who stand on the wall.

Australia is likely to have an emissions trading scheme locked in by the end of next week, with the Government caving in to a key Coalition demand to permanently exclude the farming sector.

In a significant concession, and a huge win for the powerful farming lobby, a senior Government source revealed Labor will this week agree to exclude agriculture from the scheme ”indefinitely” - knocking out a key sticking point in negotiations with the Opposition.

Italian Foreign Minister:  Since there’s only one nation of Europe, then the nation of Europe needs only one Army.

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article6917652.ece

Italy is to push for the creation of a European Army after the “new Europe” takes shape at this week’s crucial EU summit following the adoption of the Lisbon Treaty.

Franco Frattini, the Italian Foreign Minister, said that the Lisbon Treaty had established “that if some countries want to enter into reinforced co-operation between themselves they can do so”. This was already the case with the euro and the Schengen accords on frontier-free travel, and could now be applied to “common European defence”.

In an interview with The Times at his office in the monumental marble-halled Foreign Ministry on the banks of the Tiber, Mr Frattini said: “We have finally concluded a never-ending story”. The Lisbon Treaty, which comes into force in December, will be sealed on Thursday with an EU summit to choose an EU President and Foreign Minister.

— — — — — —

How long before some schmuck on the continent says they should go for a single Euro-police force with not even one on-the-street officer being armed (so they don’t offend anyone) ?

As an aside, I can’t wait to see the reaction when The UK is told they have to switch over from The Pound-Sterling to The Euro.  I give that deadline happening maybe a year from The Lisbon Treaty’s active date next month.

A Kent man who announced Friday that he intended to carry a pistol into a West Seattle community center to trigger a lawsuit challenging Seattle’s ban on guns in public spaces did just that Saturday, and was promptly asked to leave.

Bob Warden, 44, announced his intentions in an e-mail Friday morning to media as well as to the city of Seattle, including the police and city attorney.
On Saturday, Warden walked into the Southwest Community Center at 2801 SW Thistle Street with a Glock-27 .40-caliber sub-compact pistol under a black jacket in a holster strap over his left shoulder. Parks Department employee Lisa Harrison asked him to leave, and he did.

“I’m not here as a Second Amendment activist,” Warden said. “I’m here as a citizen who believes in the rule of law.”

I can offer quite a selection in the way of documented national support for Mr. Warren and my own original and splendid commentary thereafter, but I’ll allow the following rather simple statement to convey the point:

“A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.”

I’m fairly certain that’s a sort of law or something.

Maybe.

Kind of.

An Irish jihadist living in Pakistan’s Swat valley says he is preparing to wage war against British and allied troops in Afghanistan.

Khalid Kelly, a former altar boy from the Liberties area of Dublin who used to be known as Terry, told The Sunday Times he is undergoing weapons training in Pakistan’s mountainous tribal region in order to fight jihad against the enemies of Islam. His dream is to face a British soldier in combat, although he would “settle” for an American, he said.

snip

In a meeting in one of the city’s parks last month he told The Sunday Times that he had a “divine calling” to kill. “I would feel good because you are killing for God. I have practised enough mentally to know that when my time comes I’ll be ready. I pray every night for bravery,” he said.

Looks like a new Irish national dinner menu is on the horizon.

Corned Beef & Damage.
Irish Blow-Up Bread.
And a wee taste of Whiskey… Tango Foxtrot !

So let me get this straight……

Someone from The UK actually meets and interviews this traitor…. and claiming some sort of press cover (or maybe even agreeing with his agenda), doesn’t forward the location to any military authority ?  (At this point, just take out the entire Swat Valley and save the planet some real trouble down the road.)

A former militia leader serving five consecutive life sentences in an Israeli prison for a bombing in Tel Aviv has emerged as the likely successor to Mahmoud Abbas, the moderate Palestinian leader who plans to stand down.

Marwan Barghouti, a charismatic figure frequently described as ”the Palestinian Nelson Mandela”, was considering making a stand if presidential elections went ahead as scheduled for January, officials in the West Bank said.

The prospect of a prison cell campaign would delight many ordinary Palestinians as well a number of left-wing Israeli politicians.  But it could also please pragmatists in the Jewish state, who see Mr Barghouti as a vital element of the Middle East peace process who could unite Hamas and Fatah.

(snip)

Nor is it certain that Mr Abbas will fulfill his pledge not to seek a second term.

Although he insisted his decision was no stunt, many observers suggested Mr Abbas was sending a pointed message to his ally, the United States, after the Obama Administration showed signs of aligning itself with Israel on the controversial issue of Jewish settlement construction in the West Bank.

(snip)

Many observers see Mr Barghouti as playing a vital role in the peace process because of his potential to end the damaging divisions that have prevented Palestinians speaking with one voice.

===================

“…….Mr Abbas was sending a pointed message to his ally, the United States……” Oh yeah, ally is a good way to put it.   ‘Kindred spirit’ would be more like it.

That last bit though is the money line of the article and plan……. One voice alright……. Eliminate Israel and kill all Jews, then go after (what’s left of) The Great Satan.

What in the name of all that is Holy am I missing here ?
Except for a few people ‘on the wall’, I think the entire world is taking stooooopid pills.

Now then, just for laughs (and also because I instinctively knew what I was going to find), I looked around and Mr. Sinegal has made some interesting political donations over the past several years……….   http://www.newsmeat.com/ceo_political_donations/James_Sinegal.php

============================

Thoughts to ponder for mere civilians who can’t think for themselves because of being mind-numbed robots who need Mr. Gore to hold their hands throughout life:

1.  What exactly does a ‘carbon credit’ provide a corporation or individual, as no goods or services are given in return (the good will is at best debatable) ?

2.  Who is the end recipient of the money changing hands to buy these ‘carbon credits’ ?  (Answer to this question:  The main recipient is a corporation who’s founder and CEO happens to be on the cover of the current Costco Connection magazine.  Add the investors and associates in this corporation as well and you’ve got the ‘wow’ factor quite nicely ).

3.  …….. and how does money changing hands for no goods or services in return to anyone do anything towards correcting a problem that doesn’t exist on the claimed level ?

4.  A single volcanic eruption about the size of what occurred with Mt. St. Helens sends more toxins and problematic material into the Earth’s atmosphere at once than all man-made emissions ever produced.

5.  When you really think on what’s involved, ‘carbon credit’ is just a new way to define ‘extortion’.

============================

A corporation can do what it wants, as long as it’s legal.  Supporting Mr. Gore and his goals is a corporate choice Costco has made.

So is my dropping using their services and explaining why.

Cheers !

Highly doubtful anyone in the current administration will even attempt to criticize this, let alone try and stop the transaction’s completion.

Besides, if anyone in DC actually does give a damn about our national sovereignty and tries to do the right thing for our nation in this matter, China may simply say ‘no problem, we want our investment back now - all of it’, or simply drop the US Dollar faster than they’re doing already.

Any bets in how long it’s going to take our uber-concerned-about-the-nation media to cover this ?

Abdullah pulls out of Afghan run-off election.

Opposition candidate Abdullah Abdullah announced on Sunday that he was pulling out of this week’s run-off presidential election in Afghanistan.

“The decision which I am going to announce was not an easy one. It was a decision that I have taken after wide-ranging consultations, with the people of Afghanistan, my supporters and influential leaders,” Abdullah told supporters.

“In protest against the misconduct of the government and the Independent Election Commission (IEC), I will not participate in the election,” he added.

Abdullah’s decision is set to plunge Afghanistan into further uncertainty with the country in political limbo since the first round of voting on August 20, which was tainted by widespread vote-rigging.

Follow-up article about an hour later…….. with commentary by Hillary Clinton.

http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-world/abdullah-pulls-out-of-afghan-runoff-election-20091101-hri7.html

Asked whether the outcome of a run-off with only one candidate would result in a legitimate government, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Saturday that such situations are “not unprecedented.”

“We see that happen in our own country where, for whatever combination of reasons, one of the candidates decides not to go forward. I don’t think it has anything to do with the legitimacy of the election,” she said.

“I’m not going to comment on what any of the candidates might decide to do,” Clinton said, adding: “It’s a personal choice which may or may not be made.”

====================

Well then, I’ll comment, Ms. Clinton.  You see, it’s like this:  Disingenuous people know no bounds, especially when…………. Ahhh….. I’m wasting my time here…… Nobody’s going to care……  Y’all will take this simply as a weekend/overnight news dump.

Besides, why should it matter to anyone that there’s tens of thousands of American Armed Forces members stationed in Afghanistan not allowed to fight a war, and still waiting for their Commander-In-Chief to make a decision from a request received OVER THREE MONTHS AGO to get them some help.

—————

Hey, can we still call it a war, or is it now just “an enhanced and extended conflict resolution exercise resulting from a man-caused disaster” ?

This is going to be my last post for a while.   I need to back off a bit.   This story did it to me.

The thought of a bunch of sub-human pieces of garbage, let alone supposed parents who would even remotely allow……………..

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article6889829.ece
Teenage girls wanting to join violent male gangs are being forced into having sex and ferrying guns, knives and drugs, police and charities have found.

The girls, some as young as 13, want to join gangs to raise their own profile or to seek protection. Often they are swayed by the status given to the senior members of the gang.

When they first join they are told they must have sex with one member of the gang — and then find several of the gang waiting for them.

What has shocked welfare workers is that the girls accept the situation as normal and do not appreciate that they are being violated.
=============================

Sincere apologies if this was/is too disturbing for you, but it’s absolute reality and unfortunately, I have a feeling it’s definitely not limited to The UK either.

What passes for “normal” society has a dire issue in that many people (especially some of the folks now in charge world-wide) see the above as no real problem whatsoever and ’simply curable’ by just talking to pure evil who are using, abusing and killing others, thinking they’ll see the light and magically reform instantaneously.

I can’t comment further without becoming emotional to the point I was when I first saw this article about an hour ago.  Those of you who don’t know about my day job…… I help protect kids.

24 October 2009, Washington DC.
“Small businesses have always been the engine of our economy - creating 65 percent of all new jobs over the past decade and a half - and they must be at the forefront of our recovery,” Obama said in his weekly radio address.

He added that it was time for large American banks that received government assistance at the height of the current economic crisis “to stand by creditworthy small businesses, and make the loans they need to open their doors, grow their operations, and create new jobs.”

http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-world/europe-swine-flu-spreads-millions-infected-in-us-20091024-hduw.html

A top US health official said Friday swine flu had infected “many millions” and killed over 1,000 people in the United States since the outbreak began six months ago.

“We have seen, since the beginning of the pandemic in April and May, more than 1,000 deaths from pandemic influenza and more than 20,000 hospitalizations in this country,” Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) chief Thomas Frieden told reporters.

“We have had, up until now, many millions of cases of pandemic influenza in the US, and the numbers continue to increase,” he added, lamenting the scarcity of influenza A(H1N1) vaccine.

What kind of talk is that ?  Already infected “many millions” here in The USA ?

BULLCRAP.

There’d be panic on the streets, dogs and cats living together…. mass hysteria.

Even more bullcrap……. The vaccine…… It’s barely been tested, totally unproven and being soft-forced onto the public (world-wide) by a marketing campaign led by the one-world-government folks.

Schwein Grippe - The Swine Flu…….. It’s the lying-through-their-teeth, let’s-get-the-crisis-too-good-to-waste-going-already tie-in to it all so they can grab for the brass ring of Totalitarian Rule in an overnight instant.

……and late last night - after the news cycle ended -  POTUS signs a document declaring H1N1 a national emergency.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091024/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_obama_swine_flu

The national emergency declaration was the second of two steps needed to give [Health and Human Services chief Kathleen] Sebelius extraordinary powers during a crisis.

Has anyone ever looked into just exactly what ‘extraordinary powers’ are granted to different sections of the government during a national emergency ?

I have.

Please do your own research so there’s no possibility of error-filled communication here.

………and all this doesn’t even take into account the media being almost completely controlled by the Statists, “Net Neutrality” on the horizon, the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen (where a treaty will be signed to literally create and empower a one-world government baseline) and of course, the Muslim lunatics who want a full-on Holy War to start yesterday and are working towards that goal to make it happen.

Still think we’re going to have elections in 2010 if these people aren’t stopped now ?

There’s a light at the end of the tunnel……. But right now, we can’t really tell if that light is a beautiful green valley, or an oncoming 2-mile long fully-loaded freight train moving at the speed of sound.

Police in Austria are investigating the mysterious death of a British nuclear monitoring expert. Early news reports said that Timothy Hampton, who worked for an international monitoring unit called the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO), died after falling 12 stories in a building in the Vienna International Center, one of the United Nations’ main office complexes in Europe.

=====================

Breaking News:

Vienna - via Colorado.
A chief investigator has just been apointed to look into the somewhat unusual death of Mr. Timothy Hampton, investigative nuclear materials scientist.

Officer Barbrady of The South Park Colorado Police Department has arrived in Vienna and immediately went to work.  Thirty minutes later, he met a rather large gathering of international press.

“Good afternoon.  On investigating Mr. Hampton’s unfortunate fall and demise in an alarmed-access stairway from the 17th floor to the 5th, the first thing I noticed is the alarm never rang anywhere.  There was a bag over Mr. Hampton’s head tied by a wire, so I removed that and threw it out so I could compare Mr. Hampton’s face with his driver’s license for identification.  It was him.

Next, I untied Mr. Hampton’s hands from behind his back, in order to make things easier for the coroner’s office.  What a coincidence, his hands were tied with the same type of wire as was the bag.

Anyway, I did a bit more investigating and could deduce only one conclusion:  Nothing to see here.  Move on you Lookie-Lou’s……. I’ll now take questions…………………….. Anybody ?……………………. Anyone ?”

MSNBCNTYIMESCBSABCCNNREUTERS: “No, we’re good.  Fantastic job and thanks, Officer Barbrady.”

“Your welcome.  My job here is done.”

Nicaragua court backs re-election.

The Nicaraguan Supreme Court has lifted a constitutional ban on re-election, clearing the way for President Daniel Ortega to run again in 2011 elections.

The court’s decision followed an appeal by Mr Ortega and a group of mayors.  In July, Mr Ortega said publically he favoured allowing people the right to seek consecutive terms.

The issue of presidential term limits is controversial across Latin America, where several nations have moved to allow consecutive terms in office.  The argument in favour is that, in the modern world, continuity over more than four years is needed if effective policies for change are to be enacted.  But ending term limits is a divisive subject in a region which saw long-running military dictatorships hold sway for much of the 20th Century.

My Note:  There’s that damn word again…. “change”.   I’m replacing my dictionary’s entry for “change” with “Communist Dictator”.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8316445.stm

Re-election issue divides Nicaragua.

President Ortega says that he is continuing the 1980s revolution. All over the capital in recent months, banners have been proclaiming that this is the triumphant 30th anniversary of the Sandinistas.

But his critics, many of them former colleagues from his first government, see things very differently.

===================

Our Dictator In Training Pants absolutely loves this whole idea of President-For-Life and will undoubtedly offer unlimited financial and other aid to such a great upstanding man as Daniel Ortega.

In a revised version of the nursery rhyme that aired recently on the British Broadcasting Corporation’s children’s channel CBeebies, the tale – which first appeared in print in 1810 – no longer ends with “all the king’s horses and all the king’s men/Couldn’t put Humpty together again”. Now, a crack squadron of His Majesty’s finest hard-boiled military personnel has found the recipe to “make Humpty happy again”. How eggsellent.

Leftist Latin American leaders have agreed on the creation of a regional currency to scale back on the use of the US dollar as well as economic sanctions against Honduran coup leaders.

Nine countries of ALBA, a leftist bloc conceived by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, met Friday in Bolivia where they vowed to press ahead with a new currency for intra-regional trade to replace the US dollar.

“The document is approved,” said Bolivia’s President Evo Morales, who is hosting the summit.

The new currency, named the Sucre after Jose Antonio de Sucre, who fought for independence from Spain alongside Venezuelan hero Simon Bolivar in the early 19th century, will be rolled out beginning in 2010 in a non-paper form.

========================

OK, so what now Oh Teh Won ?

Hey….. Dictator In Training Pants, are you listening, or is your chin so high up in the air you can’t see anything other than your own reflection in The Sun ?

I’m talking to you, impostor POTUS…. yeah you.  The law-and-regulation-usurping, anti-Constitutional, anti-American, real piece of work in The White House.

Oh, I forgot….. You actually want this to happen, but on a much wider scale.

More than 30,000 Pakistani have soldiers launched a much-awaited ground offensive in an al-Qaida and Taliban stronghold along the Afghan border.

The offensive in South Waziristan follows months of air strikes intended to soften up militant defences. The bombing has forced tens of thousands of civilians to flee.

snip

Even if the operation is largely successful in South Waziristan, many of the militants could escape to Afghanistan or other parts of Pakistan’s semi-autonomous tribal belt.

snip

Despite sometimes rocky relations with the Pakistani military, the US is trying to rush in equipment that would help with mobility, night fighting and precision bombing.

===========

Hey, this is great…. “Months of air strikes” that we all knew about because the media has been doing such a great job covering facts……….. 30,000+ soldiers set up for a fall by senior commanders and a government that at best, is completely unstable and may even be part of our enemy…… The really bad guys will simply go deeper into the caves and/or keep hiding in plain sight………… and Obama authorizes high-tech gizmos to be sent over there - which will undoubtedly and quickly end up being “donated” to the very peace-loving-religious people who want to kill us all.

Did I miss anything ?
