I just read last night (somewhere) that not only is Rockefeller one of the private owners of the “company” which makes up the Federal Reserve - he has also donated large sums of $ to the Timberline <—correct name? which is the foundation that FUNDS all the leftists organizations that Beck has been talking about (i.e. STORM, Ella Baker, ACORN, etc).

The NYTs and some of the other newspapers would LOVE this....they’d have their control back as long as they printed all the approved propaganda.

Im guessing an “emergency” would be something like loseing an election.

Flopping Aces had an Obama quote up the other day to the effect that in a democracy there are times when the majority should not prevail.

Only FoxNews, C-Net (originated) and this paper have picked up this story.

..and Obambi just extended his vacation..*smiles*....it would be in bad taste for the MSM to ask the Joker about this while he's grieving....so this may have to wait until after he gets back from his extended romp. How dare you question his motives...*tsk tsk*

For the record, as is the convention on Free Republic, I was indicating a quote from a previous post by using italics.

I read on another post somewhere that in the 90’s some company by the name of Reliance bought transformers thoughout the U.S. but then immediately “leased” the transformers back to whoever was using them at the time. Turns out this company “Reliance” was partially owned by none other than George SOROS.

Older versions of this wireless router are hard to find but very important since the newest linksys routers don't have external antennas you can easily detach and replace with a single outdoor antenna. You can even make your own antenna out of a soup can with the right parts, but I bought the grid dish since it'll probably last longer and not rust. With a little custom 3rd party firmware (http://www.dd-wrt.com/) uploaded to the router you can set it to act as a repeater, bridging separate networks over a great distance. With two small antennas like the one I have, one on each end, you can connect easily as far as 3 miles away, and I've heard some say as much as 10 miles - depends largely on how much power you're willing to set the router to with DD-WRT; more power = more range = less lifespan of the router.
