Once again, the corporate controlled media wants you yo focus on the SHOCKING American Idol final! and none of the main U.S. outlets want you to hear about or care whats going on in our government. Latest news, there are currently 16 members of congress under investigation by various federal and state agencies. As you can see both Republicans and Democrats are both equally corrupt and time and time again are accused of lining their own pockets and pockets of families and friends. Feel free to write your representative or Senator and let them know your feelings! Thanks to CREW for this information.

As reported by Wired.com, in a shocking declaration by the Federal Communications Commission, according to the Communications Act of 1934. If you own any wireless RF device, this includes a baby monitor, wireless router, cell phone or cordless phones, the FCC has a right to enter the property and inspect the item in question:
You may not know it, but if you have a wireless router, a cordless phone, remote car-door opener, baby monitor or cellphone in your house, the FCC claims the right to enter your home without a warrant at any time of the day or night in order to inspect it.
That’s the upshot of the rules the agency has followed for years to monitor licensed television and radio stations, and to crack down on pirate radio broadcasters. And the commission maintains the same policy applies to any licensed or unlicensed radio-frequency device.
I imagine that this will be challenged in court but according to the Wired.com article, the FCC is trying to shut down “Pirate” radio stations. I understand the need to monitor radio stations to make sure that there isn’t some complete wacko giving out advice on how to commit crimes or something but it seems like that information can be ascertained by actually listening to the station!
Repeat after me! You will not listen to anything over the airwaves that the government and corporations do not control or cannot monitor. Failure to comply will result in financial ruin.
I have sat back quietly and watched “Mr. Change” Barack Obama and its time to speak out. I think I have given Mr. Obama the benefit of the doubt and now its time to comment.
Despite his initial speech to the world promising a new era of “Transparency” and open government, he has gone back on almost every single one of his promises and stances in his first 100 days in office. Its time to record some of this “Change” he has promised us.
Before you try to slam me or make assumptions about this post or this blog, go back into the archives and check out some of the criticism I’ve leveled at our last great president and his shining administration. At this point its not the false “right vs. left” argument thats distracting most of the people in this country, its really and issue of the Federal government vs. the American people.
So without further ado, lets see how the latest presidential administration is handling the new “Change” they been touting since last year. This latest report is brought to you by Rawstory.com.
According to Michael Isikoff on the Rachael Maddow show detailed a “secret meeting” between Obama and his closest officials and select members of Civil rights groups and the press. From the article:
The meeting was off the record, but MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow reported that Obama was “demonstrably not pleased” when told that he was “allowing President Bush’s policies to become his own.” Obama also “curtly” dismissed any suggestion of a truth commission or even a single symbolic torture prosecution.
At the same time, probably one of the least effective Congress’s in the history of our government voted 90-6 to pull any funding regarding the closure of the U.S. run Guantanamo Bay gulag. Not only do we have a president that continues to carry on W’s policies, we have a more than ever complicit Congress just following along.
I dont know if this is the “change” I’ve been looking for…
In an entertaining interview with Larry King on CNN, former Minnesota Governor Jesse “the Body” Ventura lets his opinions fly about the former villainous Vice president of the United States Dick “Shotgun” Cheney.
KING: A lot of things to go into, Jesse. What do you make of the Cheney/Limbaugh?
VENTURA: I don’t have a lot of respect for Dick Cheney. Here’s a guy who got five deferments from the Vietnam War. Clearly, he’s a coward. He wouldn’t go when it was his time to go. And now he is a chicken hawk. Now he is this big tough guy who wants this hardcore policy. And he’s the guy that sanctioned all this torture by calling it enhanced interrogation.
KING: Do you think Rush Limbaugh’s a better Republican than Colin Powell?
VENTURA: No, not at all. In fact, if you compare the two, let’s look at Colin Powell, who’s a war hero, who strapped it on for his country, and didn’t run and hide.
KING: Twice.
VENTURA: And then you look at Dick Cheney who ran and hid. I have no respect for Dick Cheney. I have tremendous respect for General Powell.
I wonder how talking head Neocons like Ann Coulter will respond. Not only was he a badass Navy SEAL in Vietnam, he was a professional wrestler as well. I guess that rules out the “far left liberal wussy” card… On another note, Mr. Ventura puts his money where his mouth is because he no longer lives in the United States and apparently now resides in Mexico. Ventura for President!
Heres the video clip from the Larry King show just in case you missed it…
