If it isn't treason, it's COLD BLOODED MURDER!The evidence is clear, the typical liberal Democrat, including, politicians, academics, and a bias media, are ghoulishly UNAMERICAN to their core!
I have seen enough! It's more than apparent that this election is so important to the Democrats, that they pray, promote, and prod the enemies of OUR COUNTRY, to murder us in our sleep, the more the merrier, so they can win back the presidency, and congress..
Who can deny that there are members of the Democrat Party that are salivating at the thought of another massive 9/11 type tragedy, or an increase in the number of our military brothers and sisters being slaughtered at will in Iraq. The higher the body count, the more gruesome the catastrophe, the better the headlines.. the real meat of the matter is to use the body parts of our children and family, to beat up the BUSH administration, and lower the approval rating of Republicans in general.
It's all to obvious, that their willing accomplices in public life and the national media in particular know that if they amplify the fear and violence, to their advantages, that they have once again resorted to lying and spinning the daily news and picking at any corner to tear away the facts so they can replace them with their propaganda.
A TRUE CAUSE FOR OUTRAGE
The Democrats, with the aid of our own national media are conscientiously and deliberately promoting the death and injuries of our American soldiers in Iraq for nothing more than their selfish political gains. With the unanimous liberal call for withdrawal of our troops, withholding of the funds to finish, and with each days incident reports, growing louder and louder they have finally found an audience, The Terrorist!..
The planned, and systematic media bombardment of our administration's prosecution of the rebuilding of Iraq is beginning to achieve it's intended consequences, more incidents and much more vicious escalation, feeding our headlines, and bolstering the carnage, thus weakening our national resolve! They are knowingly giving AID AND COMFORT TO THE ENEMY!
As the tempo of the Presidential campaign grows, so grows the whining of the left to paint our military conquest as a failure, thus discrediting president Bush and our current administration. The mainstream media's deliberate avoidance of any positive news coming from the theater of conflict, and their distorting the casualties as catastrophic is leaving the impression that things are actually deteriorating, when the exact opposite is true.
"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
- Sir Winston Churchill (1874-1965)
The enemies of our effort must be paying very close attention to this election cycle, as they plan every day to gain a foothold on the events by injuring, maiming and murdering, when at all possible, at least one serviceman or woman before the 6 pm news cycle approaches in New York. They are then rewarded with screaming leads on the National news, National and regional headlines, and clarion calls from the podiums following the contenders on the left of the political spectrum.
Faxes and spin doctors then pick up the momentum with canned nitpicks from a few malcontents in the military ranks, and issue staged outraged comments from their weak list of political leaders and candidates. All of this happening without much or any noticeable penalties from the patriots of our country, if there are any left, within their own party, or from the general public.. so it continues..
This scandalous conduct must be called to account, and the leaders of these traitorous activities must be exposed for all to see. There must begin a rising tide of outrage from the population. It is not enough to punish this behavior with lost elections and a falling viewers and readers, which appears not to deter their resolve. Their motives are more than nearsighted, and the damage they are inflicting on the fabric of our country so insidious that the lost profits of the news purveyors due to individual boycotts, pales by comparison to the death and dying they cause.
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
- Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
This is a worn and dog-eared page from the communist, socialist, and Marxist-Leninist play book. The repeat of the cold war. This is reminiscent of their heady days from the Viet Nam War marches and riots, when the Democrats cut off all funding of the war, and left our troops without ammunition or hope on the theater of battle.
"Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe."
- H. G. Wells (1866-1946)
This same planned activity worked so well to elect Bill Clinton in 1990, and left once again, another war to fight, more bodies to count, and a new cycle of cynicism and anti Americanism around the globe and sad but true, within American families. This cancerous plague being waged along party lines, with the organized effort to destroy our morals, diminish our standards, and capture our youth into their hideous grasp has reached an epidemic, and it must be stopped.
The UK has recently began to uncover rats under the rock at the Left-wing BBC, so must we began to flip a few rocks here at home, starting with our own homegrown leftist in and around, CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, PBS, MTV, etc. If you watch the news, on any of the national, regional, and even local broadcasts, and have had the unique experience of witnessing the facts, as in the Congressional Hearings of CIA Director George Tenet, and then hear and see the liberal spin an entirely new and completely fabricated version of the story.. you know what I mean.. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE, AND WE MUST STOP THIS NOW!
"Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action."
- Auric Goldfinger, in "Goldfinger" by Ian L. Fleming (1908-1964)ISN'T IT ABOUT TIME TO BRING BACK
THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON UNAMERICAN ACTIVITIES?
WE MUST ACT..NOW! For those with the power of persuasion, you must persuade! For those with the knack of organization, you must organize! For those with the power of the purse, you must spend for the cause.. donate!.
And for all of us, VOTE, and VOTE, and VOTE, and VOTE!"Sometimes a scream is better than a thesis."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
- Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

HUAC and Censorship ChangesThe content of Hollywood films has always been regulated in one form or another-, however, between 1947 and 1954 the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) became indirectly involved in this kind of regulation. After the Second World War the United States’ alliance with the Soviet Union ended, the Cold War began, and the “Red Scare” moved into full force. The HUAC members considered it their duty to purge the country of any Communist influences. While numerous industries were investigated by HUAC, because of Hollywoods high profile, it became the best known target of this infamous committee.
Nineteen “unfriendly” witnesses were subpoenaed. These were people whom the committee considered to be Communists. Although only eleven were called to testify, all their lives were deeply affected. German playwright Bertolt Brecht was the only one of the eleven to answer any questions on the stand. He claimed he was not a Communist, but after testifying he immediately left Hollywood to return to East Germany. The remaining ten became the famous so-called “Hollywood Ten”. One director (Edward Dmytryk) and nine screenwriters (John Howard Lawson, Dalton Trumbo, Albert Maltz, Alvah Bessie, Samuel Ornintz, Herbert Biberman, Adrian Scott, Ring Lardner, Jr., and Lester Cole) took the stand and refused to answer any questions, claiming their Fifth Amendment rights. These ten witnesses knew they had three options. They could claim they were not and never had been members of the Communist Party (this would have meant perjuring themselves); they could admit or claim membership and then be forced to name other members (and this would have meant losing their jobs both because of their former membership and their dubious position as informers); or they could refuse to answer any questions (which is the choice they made). Although most lawyers would agree today that the Fifth Amendment gave them tire right to choose this last option, the committee (and then the courts during appeals) did not agree. All ten were held in (contempt and subsequently served between six and twelve months in jail, although one, Edward Dmytryk, later agreed to cooperate with the committee and did not serve his entire sentence. The remaining nine were blacklisted by the Hollywood film community and found themselves forced to use pseudonyms in order to sell scripts. (“Robert Rich”, for instance, who won the Oscar for Best Screenplay for The Brave One in 1956, was actually the blacklisted Dalton Trumbo.) Immediately after these ten men went before the committee, fifty Hollywood executives gathered for a two-day secret meeting. Knowing that they could face huge losses at the box office no matter what the committee’s findings, they debated the best way to handle the situation. On November 24, 1947, they announced as a group that the Hollywood Ten were suspended without pay. Furthermore, they issued a statement that declared, “We, will not knowingly employ a Communist or a member of any party or group which advocates the overthrow of the Government of the United States by force, or by any illegal or unconstitutional method.” While this statement was purposely worded ambiguously, in the end it served to encourage and condone a ten-year blacklist. From 1951 to 1954, HUAC, now directed by John S. Wood, again focused on Hollywood, compiling a list of 324 present and former Hollywood workers who supposedly were or had been members of the Communist Party. Whether or not these people admitted membership, they ended up on an unofficial blacklist. Even cooperative witnesses who named others or renounced their own former membership in the party were on the list. Of these 324 people, 212 were actively working in Hollywood during this time, and thus lost their jobs. The production process was affected by these proceedings. Not only were the 212 workers lost at almost all levels of production (actors, writers, directors, technicians), but the content of the movies being made began to shift as well. Studios became even more cautious and aware of the public’s reception of their films. Between 1947 and 1954 almost forty explicitly propagandistic anti-Communist films were made in Hollywood. Despite the fact that nearly all lost money, the studios continued to put the products out, hoping to prevent boycotts. Furthermore, producers tended to shy away from films about social problems. Pressure from banks also worked to limit the film industry during this period. During the war the banks were quick to lend money for film projects. The audiences were growing, while the products were becoming fewer as a result of the war. Simple supply and demand told the banks that just about any film would make a profit. However, after the war the audience began to turn to television in lieu of movies. Combined with the other changes, this meant that Hollywood films could not necessarily be assumed to turn a profit. Thus, as the banks became more cautious, they got more involved in monitoring the content of the films, pushing for conservative, safe ventures. Yet, even as HUAC and the subsequent blacklist served to limit and control the content and system of production and financing of Hollywood films, other forces were working against censorship and tight studio control. Imported foreign films and independent productions distributed through Hollywood began to bypass the Production Code Administration. In fact, foreign films never did go to the PCA. Instead, individual state censorship boards granted particular films licenses. As the number of foreign films being imported into the United States after World War 11 grew, more and more of their distributors ended up going to the courts to ensure their right to rent their films to exhibitors. The first and most important of these cases took place in 1952, when Roberto Rossellini’s “The Miracle” was initially banned by New York censors as “sacrilegious”. Despite such contests, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA; formerly MPPDA) continued to enforce and rely on its production code. In fact, in 1951 new restrictions against mentioning abortion or drugs in films were introduced. Although most people either working in or distributing through Hollywood continued to shape their films to please the PCA, some did not. Otto Preminger was the best known independent producer to challenge the code. In 1953 United Artists released his “The Moon Is Blue”, a film that dealt with seduction and adultery, without code approval. Although a few states did ban the film, and the producers did in fact go all the way to the Supreme Court over the ban in Kansas, the film was a great success, earning more than $3 million. In 1955 Preminger again bypassed the code, this time releasing (again through United Artists) “The Man with the Golden Arm”. The hero of the film (played by Frank Sinatra) was a drug addict, and this had been deemed an offence by the MPAA. Again, the film was a financial success. By this time, the PCA realized that if it wanted to maintain any control over Hollywood product, it would have to revise its code. Changing a little in 1953, a little more in 1954, and finally a great deal in 1956 the code came to reflect the kind of movies that were going to be produced anyway. While the specifics of these censorship and self-censorship changes may not have led directly to specific production, distribution and/or exhibition changes, they helped to define the changes going on throughout the film industry during these years. As films seen in the United States increasingly were produced by non-Hollywood workers, the content of the films changed. Furthermore, distributors (whether they were the Hollywood studios or not) were forced to carry these films because they had fewer titles to choose from, and, perhaps more important, because they realized that these films would make a great deal of money. This in turn created new appetites and interests in the audience and tended to splinter it into smaller, more specialized groups. Lastly, exhibitors rented these films for the same reason distributors offered them. They needed to fill their screens and then to fill their seats. The HUAC political investigations removed talented individuals from the system and affected the kinds of films being made while the new censorship systems began to splinter the audience from one mass group into smaller specialized groups. Although one was a repressive force that drove talent away (HUAC), and one was a non-repressive force that loosened censorship and created new audience interests, both contributed to the collapse.

Exposed: Pelosi's Socialist Ties
Something the leftist media establishment doesn't want you to know: San Francisco Democrat Nancy Pelosi's ties to socialism.
Writing in the Washington Times, Balint Vazsonyi notes that in a recent New York Times article about the soon-to-be House minority leader, there was not "a single mention of her executive position in the Progressive Caucus, and the latter's ties to the Socialist International."
"Question: If an international organization existed to carry the torch for Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, and if a person running for minority leader had past or present ties to such an organization, what are the chances the New York Times would find it irrelevant to the matter at hand?" asks Vazsonyi.
"None. Zero. Nada.
"Double standards: Do you remember the Austrian nationalist Joerg Haider? He had no such affiliation. Yet the mere possibility that he might harbor sympathies for National Socialist ideas sufficed to make him, and the country in which he holds office, an international pariah.
"The Socialist International carries the torch for Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, V.I. Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Josef Stalin. Pay no attention to the desperate attempts by socialists to distance themselves from Stalin. For our purposes, it suffices to observe that every single tenet of the Socialist International is the exact opposite of the principles upon which America was founded, and which define the U.S. Constitution.
"For our purposes, it suffices also to observe that members of the U.S. Congress are required to furnish an oath whereby they will preserve, protect, and defend said Constitution.
"DSA/USA, the 'Democratic Socialists of America' are the U.S. arm of the Socialist International. They share the symbol of the fist holding the rose, and they share the tasks to be accomplished — in our case, an altogether different America.
"Some time ago — the date is missing from the descriptions — 58 members of the U.S. House of Representatives formed a subdivision of the Democratic Socialists of America and called it the Progressive Caucus. Their statement of purpose, as well as their membership list, formed an integral part of the dsausa Web site [www.dsausa.org]. The membership list appeared on the screen with the continuous background of the fist holding the rose, should anyone have missed the connection with the Socialist International."
After the Washington Times in November 1998 blew the whistle on the so-called "Progressive" Caucus, "action was taken to hide the true nature of the organization, and its membership list was eventually taken off the dsausa Web site."
Vazsonyi continues: "Rep. Nancy Pelosi has long been, and is now, a member of the executive committee of the Progressive Caucus. Her election as minority leader would firmly establish the link between the Democratic Caucus of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Socialist International.
"The U.S. Constitution places no restrictions on political creeds. There is no earthly reason why socialists could not be elected to Congress if the people so choose. There is a question of honesty, though. Candidates for office ought to put their cards on the table."
No wonder some Democrat congressmen are ready to bolt the party.
