Newsweek becomes Laughingstock of the Nation over their Dubious Polls Newsweek's readership, along with the readership and viewership of other Democratic Party media blocs, has dropped substantially in the last five years. Newsweek has suffered a drop of almost 9 percent in ad pages this year. Newsweek magazine, a political voice for the Democratic Party, now largely relies on sustained contractual agreements with vendors such as 7-Eleven and grocery stores to stock their magazines as the base for the greater part of Newsweek's profits, actual subscriptions to the magazine dropping to low levels, and actual numbers of purchases of their ...

Where is Colin Powell? Ok, Labor Day has come and past. So it's time to start playing hardball, it's time to stop barbecuing the meat and start biting the meat on the bone. And I ask . . . Where's Colin Powell? About now would be a good time for some of the heavy hitters to come out for Bush if they really expect us to take them seriously ever again. So, where's Colin Powell? In other words, where's Colin Powell stepping up to bat at this time when he can really make a difference, if he really cares about ...

BUSH CALLS ADAM CLYMER AN ASS-HOLE: GIVES BUSH A BUMP IN THE POLLS AT U.C. BERKELEY Everyone at the International Café at the U.C. Campus was talking about it. Bush, the man, called Adam Clymer, the N.Y. reporter, an ass-hole, and the students were impressed. "I was going to vote for Gore. But now, with the ass-hole thing, I'm switching to Bush. He's the man," said one Fraternity member and student of the well known left-leaning University. I was amazed at what was taking place about me. The buzz at the Café was about Bush, and it was resoundingly commendatory, ...

During 1962 Chinese Invasion The following is a memo of the RSS, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (The National Volunteers Association - also formally known as the Rashtriya Swayam Sewak Sangh or RSSS), the popular Right-Wing movement of National Renaissance in India, from the RSS publication 1988 - A VISION IN ACTION. The RSS is labeled a far right extremist organization by the Western liberals. Elements of the RSS were involved in the assassination of M. K. Gandhi, though it has never been totally proven. One of the greatest inspirations of the RSS is the famed Veer (The Brave) Savarkar. The ...

Scottish Festival a Grand and Heartwarming Success I attended a public Scottish Festival today - I was surprised to find myself in the midst of at least 30,000 people or more. Actually, though it was promoted as a Scottish Festival and a "meeting of the Clans", it really was a Scott, Keltic (Celt), Brit thing, and boy was it fun, grand, and the crowd dressed in finery of Scott dress & cap, the pipers! my God, the pipers, the pipers! - my soul flew to 7th heaven, they worked some kind of magic and the crowd was so loving and ...

Gore has Almost Won, so Let's get ready to put the Christians in the Ovens (ABC, NBC, CBS) Be aware, that it is not very PC, not politically correct, to discuss the lucrative dealings of a Pontius Pilate, or a King Herod. And be aware, to say anything that is outside the orchestrated "norm" of the government-media complex is suspect to indictment by the Department of Justice of the United States of America - the orchestrated "norm" is political correctness, and all others are not "normal", not "mainstream". What is not normal today is to be a Christian - just ...

JAPAN REARMING IN PREP FOR WAR WITH CHINA - Ending his South Asia trip last week, Japanese Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori publicly spoke of his concerns over the possibility of war in the sub-continent. The US State Department has also released it's report that revels Japan as the third biggest arms importer, and that in a three-year period alone, from 1995 and increasing in 1997, Japan imported arms worth almost $7 billion as shown in a report on world military expenditures by the Bureau of Verification and Compliance. Saudi Arabia tops the list at $31 billion, but among big military ...

BUSH IS WINNING We are told this week by the networks that President Clinton still holds a majority of America's approval for doing a "good job", the same news reports expounded with news-speak that for Clinton to sustain such a "majority" at this time in the closing months of a last term President is "unprecedented". Besides the fact that it is simply untrue that it is "unprecedented" that a President would hold a majority approval rating for doing a "good job" in the closing months of a last term - there have been numerous examples of this from previous administrations, ...

WHITE MAN’S GOVERNMENT First they will come, and ask for some of your wampum. Because they know better how to share the wampum. And then they will come, and they will ask for a lot of your wampum. Because they know better, how to spend your wampum. And then they will come, and they will TAKE your wampum. Because you owe them for their wisdom in spending your wampum. And then when they have taken your wampum, they will come, to take the little children. Because they have something important to teach children who may become Warrior. To teach ...

WESLEY BRADSHAW WRITINGS REVEAL SHERMAN ACCOUNT OF WASHINGTON'S DISTURBED ENCOUNTER National Tribune, Vol. 4, No. 12, December 1880 The writer Wesley Bradshaw was a contemporary of Anthony Sherman, who was an officer of the Revolution and under command of Washington in 1777. This account of Sherman was related to Wesley Bradshaw, outlined as follows, where Sherman reports on General George Washington's disturbed encounter with some kind of intruder that occurred on a chilly winter day, cloudless sky and bright sunshine, of 1777. General Washington was in his quarters, alone, all afternoon. He came out, he looked pale, and shaken. He ...

What Diversity Means to Al Gore The Democrats are far along in creating a new police force in America. What this is, of course, is the political police. The hideous face of Janet Reno is the Democratic Party's example of a Commandant of the political police, whose joint role, for now, is to act both as the political agent for the elite of the Democratic Party by providing obstruction of justice to protect this elite which is above the law, and to act as the Gestapo for this elite in state sanctioned military-style home attacks on citizens who do not ...

AL GORE GIVES THE SAME OLD CONVENTION SPEECH OF THE CENTURY Al Gore had to give the speech of his life if he was to turn this thing around. In part, he was counting on his peers and supporters in the Democratic Party to give him the ballyhoo he needed in the days, hours, and closing minutes prior to his speech, to set the stage for his moment. But, ultimately, even if they did their best, it still all came down to the speech. Would it be something that distinguishes Al Gore from the same old equivocation? He had to ...

Ted "Pumpkin-Head" Kennedy Spouts Suds-muddle at the 2000 Democratic Convention I can't remember exactly what year it was anymore, but it was back when a gunman managed to take hostages in the Washington monument in D.C., something like maybe 15 years ago or more. My friend and I were in D.C., staying in the D.C. Downtown Motel - it turned out that the gunman stayed two doors down from us. Boy what a dump motel, and the light-bulb kept dimming, whores outside, and I got bit by a rat. So we start getting the reports on the gunman, and the ...

The Great Calcutta Killings of 1946 and the Failure of Gun Control Through such popular movies as "Gandhi", many Americans have an idea of the events related to the great Calcutta killings of 1946, the Hindu-Muslim riots of that time in that metropolis sometimes called "the frightful", the images of the horrors that occurred. Actually, the brutalization of the human conscious that occurred is much worse than even some of the popular visions of the burning dwellings, the devil dancing murderers killing even children, the fire bombing of entire families in their cars, and other such ugly images. Referring ...

Maybe it's time the Democrats just say it like it is, that Al Gore is just a weak candidate. Clinton's orchestrated public expression of regret yesterday, the seventh time now since Monicagate, you got Lieberman who the media is touting as the "centrist" because they can't say the word "moderate" (no one will buy that one), and you know the whole "centrist" thing (as they pronounce it: cen-TRIST, oh how gravitas of them) and it is so obvious how the phony liberal network news is in medley with the DNC endeavor through this waggish campaign to succor some kind ...

BUSH IN TOWN ? My wife told me tonight that Governor Bush stopped through a nearby town on the campaign trail, but I missed him. I'm disappointed I missed a chance to see his campaign in action, though I understand he will be in the area and other counties. A Bush supporter, yet I wasn't even aware he was in town, no notification, no call from the RHQ, so my question is - wanted to bring my whole family out to see him, where can I find the specifics as to his stop overs, times/dates/locations? Don't want to be ...

GOING THE DISTANCE TOUR CNN was telling us the other day that, amazingly, a 14 point Bush lead over Gore had, suddenly, within fourteen hours, spectacularly vanished, the latest CNN poll - but a single graveyard shift later - is now a statistical dead heat! And of course, the take on it is that it was all because of the Lieberman pick, because, well, how else, what else . . . could you attribute it to?!? It's quite amusing, really: CNN, the Clinton News Network. And, you know, with all due respect to Joe Lieberman, this whole GORE-LIEBERMAN thing, well ...

Oakland's Last Gun Store About to Close Source: kcbs Publication date: 2000-08-05 (KCBS) The owner of an Oakland institution is closing the doors for the last time next week after 57 years in business. KCBS reporter Bob Butler says Siegle’s Sporting Goods which is the city’s last gun dealer is shutting down on Wednesday. Owner Mara Siegle tells KCBS the city’s special gun tax which costs owners $24 on every $1,000 in gross receipts, even if it is not on a weapons purchase makes it impossible to make a profit. Siegle believes the closure of her family owned store which ...

7-Eleven Clerk Gets Fired After Stopping Robbery Associated Press (Martinsburg, West Virginia) -- So much for being a hero. A convenience store clerk in Martinsburg, West Virginia, has been fired from his job after foiling a robbery last month. Antonio Feliciano wrestled a gun from a would-be assailant, but officials at Seven-Eleven say he violated store policy requiring workers to hand over the cash in hold-ups. Feliciano says he's no glory hound, and he wasn't thinking about the company rules when facing a sawed-off rifle -- he just wanted to be sure he was going home that night to his ...
