POLITICAL: Murder is murder

So That’s Why They Kept the Drone Kill Memo Secret
By David Swanson
War Is A Crime.org
June 25, 2014
*** begin quote ***
The memo considers a section of the U.S. code dealing with the murder of a U.S. citizen by another U.S. citizen abroad, drawing on another section that defines murder as “the unlawful killing of a human being with malice aforethought.”
David Barron, the memo’s author, needed a loophole to make murder-by-missile a lawful killing rather than an unlawful killing, so he pulls out the “public authority justification” under which the government gets to use force to enforce a law. It’s a novel twist, though, for the government to get to use force to violate the law, claiming the violation is legal on the Nixonian basis that it is the government doing it.
Alternatively, Barron suggests, a government gets to use force if doing so is part of a war. This, of course, ignores the U.N. Charter and the Kellogg Briand Pact and the illegality of wars, as well as the novelty of claiming that a war exists everywhere on earth forever and ever. (None of Barron’s arguments justify governmental murder on U.S. soil any less than off U.S. soil.)

When the “King” kills his subjects, then we have tyranny.
Is there any doubt that the Gooferment has “crossed a very important Rubicon” with this memo?
No one can have any doubts now.

POLITICAL: Heart Disease ‘Pandemic’

Butter Is Back—Processed Foods Are Identified as Real Culprits in Heart Disease
By Joseph Mercola
Mercola.com
June 24, 2014
*** begin quote ***
Flawed Nutritional Guidelines Have Created a ‘Pandemic’ of Heart Disease
Between 1920 and 1960, Americans’ butter consumption declined by over 75 percent, yet heart disease went from a relatively unknown condition to the number one killer. Consumption of trans fat radically increased in the mid-1950s, and rates of sudden death from heart disease have faithfully risen right along with trans fat consumption.
Today, there are 30,000 items in the American diet that contain trans fats, according to the FDA. That should give you an indication of just how prevalent these dangerous fats have become!
Basically, if you eat processed foods, you’re likely eating trans fats. Many products that claim to be “zero trans fat” simply have portion sizes that are so ridiculously small that the trans fat falls below the permissible limits and therefore do not need to be listed.
Authority Nutrition has assembled several graphs with side-by-side comparisons of obesity and heart disease trends with nutritional trends over time. These graphs make it easier to visualize how the low-fat recommendations have done you no favors whatsoever.7 For example, the following graph shows how the European countries that eat the least saturated fats have the highest risk of heart disease:

We have to think for ourselves.

JOBSEARCH: How Can Women Advance? Let Them Fail – BankInfoSecurity

How Can Women Advance? Let Them Fail – BankInfoSecurity

How Can ANYONE Advance? Let Them Fail – BankInfoSecurity
Counter intuitive?
When I manage folks, my theory has always been: (1) allow them to set their own goals and objectives [I’m always surprised how aggressive folks can be!]; (2) if it’s a “below the waterline” failure, be supportive and don’t allow it to fail; (3) if it’s an “above the waterline” failure, permit it to fail. There’s a theory that says “we learn more from our failures than our successes”. Some of us never learn. Argh!

POLITICAL: “Disabled” America
Tuesday, June 24, 201411,004,507: Disability Beneficiaries Top 11 Million for First Time
June 20, 2014 – 4:04 PM
*** begin quote ***
The number of Americans receiving disability benefits continues to exceed the populations of Greece, Tunisia and Portugal and is drawing closer to Cuba, whose population of 11,047,251 (as reported by the CIA) is just 42,477 more than the 11,004,507 Americans receiving disability benefits.
*** end quote ***
I have read that once someone goes on disability, they never come off.
And, is this substitute for lifetime unemployment.
How does one differentiate between “the truly needed” and the moochers?
Really, all charity must be private.
http://www.acton.org/public-policy/effective-compassion
*** begin quote ***
How are the poor best aided? After a thirty year governmental “War on Poverty” failed to reduce poverty in America, a consensus developed that the centralized entitlement approach of the federal government created more problems than it solved. Consequently, in 1996 welfare reform and its “Charitable Choice” provision paved the way for more involvement by the private sector, especially by faith-based institutions, in helping the poor make the transition from welfare to work. The welfare reform law of 1996 was a first step away from direct federal control of help to the poor and toward private sector solutions-but it was only a first step. The Acton Institute envisions a revivified civil society that is energetically involved in transforming the lives of the poor with a minimum of government intervention.
*** end quote ***
It’s a hard topic, but if the economy was booming, it wouldn’t as big an issue.
And the economy isn’t going to boom until the Gooferment is cut down to the bones.
Minimum wage, high taxation, and over regulation!
Then maybe the “little people” would have a chance.

TINFOILHAT: “Hitler Uberlebte in Argentinen”

Did Hitler Escape to South America?
By Christopher Condon
June 21, 2014
*** begin quote ***
Could the fallen German dictator, Adolf Hitler, have been among those Nazis who found refuge in South America? To most historians, the idea is preposterous because everyone knows that Hitler committed suicide in an underground bunker in Berlin at the very end of WWII. But the notion that Hitler had fled Europe did not seem preposterous at the time. Did not Admiral Donitz, the head of the German Navy, once state that the German Navy had prepared a safe haven for Hitler somewhere in the world in the event that Hitler’s position in Europe became untenable? In the immediate aftermath of the war, there was world-wide speculation that Hitler had escaped. For example, on July 17, 1945, the Chicago Sun Times reported that that Hitler was still alive and living on a ranch in Argentina. Some well-informed persons in high places, notably General Dwight Eisenhower and Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, took these reports quite seriously. The latter adamantly insisted until he died in 1953 that Hitler had escaped to either Spain or Argentina. But these doubters were increasingly ignored and the view that Hitler had committed suicide in Berlin became the official view and eventually hardened into dogma. Now and again, a few people in South America claimed to have seen Hitler on their continent, but these sightings were regarded in the same light as sightings of Elvis Presley are today.
*** and ***
There have been many additional eyewitnesses who claim to have seen not just German submarines but Hitler himself alive and well in South America after the war. A long list of perhaps 30 of these is given in the appendix to Basti’s book. Let us look at two of the very best.
*** and ***
If Hitler and several thousand highly ranked Nazis secretly escaped from Berlin toward the end of WWII, it is difficult to see how they could have done so without the knowledge of the United States Government. The growing number of investigators who believe that Hitler and many of his associates did escape suspect that it was by submarine that they made their way from Northern Europe to South America. By the end of the war, the United States Government had developed the ability to track any and all enemy ships on the Atlantic Ocean. It is difficult to see how they could have failed to notice a large convoy of German submarines, especially when those submarines would have had to surface and refuel at least once along the way. So if the German submarines made it all the way to South America without being stopped, they must have had the tacit approval of somebody with authority in Washington.
*** end quote ***
And, as usual, there is enough doubt around the “official story” that one has to suspect treachery.
Was a safe conduct give in exchange for German rocket scientists?
Yeah, inconceivable.
Really?
Could the elite wanted to keep the war going so as to line their own pockets?
Was it the policy of the Gooferment to set up the Russians as the next “convenient enemy” to keep the war machine working?
Yeah, I proudly wear my tin foil hat because “I wouldn’t believe you, if your tongue came notarized.” … attributed to Judge Marilyn Milian, but may have an earlier history.

INSPIRATIONAL: Gallantry, courtesy, and respect
Sunday, June 22, 2014http://www.artofmanliness.com/2014/02/10/always-treat-your-girlfriend-right-a-wwii-case-study/
*** begin quote ***
Consider this an invitation to be grateful for the close friendships in your life at this very moment.
It’s also a reminder that every dating relationship ends up one of two ways: you either break up as a couple, or you get married. There are no other options. That’s a healthy extrapolation to keep in mind while dating.
You might be tempted to gorge on your girlfriend’s goodness like a hungry man on a tin of canned pineapple, but there’s a strong chance that someday this same girl will be married to someone else. Her offspring and your offspring might even get married someday. So it will be in everybody’s best interest if you can always look each other in the eye with a clear conscience.
How can you guarantee that?
Simple.
Following the example of Sid Phillips, treat every woman you date with gallantry, courtesy, and respect.
*** end quote ***
Hope that I’ve always done that.
I think I have.
I know I do.
Sigh!
Great story!
