These same youths on hearing about this will turn against Obama.

It’s like Glenn Beck has said - if the right hand is in the news, check what the left hand is doing! Except in this case it’s more like a Medusa (or hydra? whatever).

You read my mind. Jeff, what is the military offensive maneuver for a multi-pronged attack, coming from several far-away locations ... unseen from the target?

So far, over on DU, there hasn’t been a peep about this.

No, it’s some guy named Joseph Goebbels. But it might just as well be Rahm.

Maybe dui thinks this won’t apply to them.
They may be in for a big surprise when their messiah turns on them.

Re Ham Radio...

Good luck with that...there are no sunspots....

Sunspots are at a low point not seen in perhaps a hundred years, no doubt, and a lot of HF communication is not always as easy as we'd like it because of that, BUT...

80M & 40M are still very reliable for comms ranging from local areas to 1-2 states away with barefoot 100W rigs & simple wire antennas, and 20M is open at some time almost every day with transcontinental coverage using equally simple and portable equipment. This year I have been experimenting and practicing with my own station to get a good feel for it's usefulness with the possibility of govt. comm shutdowns in mind, and my HF gear is about as bare-bones as it comes. It doesn't take all that much to have a very functional station.

Sunspots do affect radio propagation to some extent, but 14 MHz and below are not so dependent on them to be functional. In the cycle highs, propagation does most of the work, but in the lows we have to rely more on operator skill and antenna design.

One of the most active groups of like minded Ham Radio operators interested in individual readiness, you'll find here:

Olympia Snowe has got to go. She lends the Republican stamp to every horrible piece of legislation out there.

The Dems in TX are conservative compared to the rest of the country.

This, like Hussein Obama’s birth certificate, is a non-issue to the State-run media.

The real bone here is that they really intend to control communication between the citizens.

Bingo.
