Landmark legislation approved by the Senate yesterday will give the
federal government sweeping new powers to oversee tobacco products,
allowing regulators to control factors including the amount of

Obama to fire inspector general of AmeriCorps, apparently for doing his job too well.
06-11-2009
•
AP
President Barack Obama plans to fire the inspector general who investigates AmeriCorps and other national service programs amid a controversy between the IG and Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, who is an Obama supporter and former Phx. Suns NBA basketball star.
The
IG, Gerald Walpin, was criticized by the U.S. attorney in Sacramento
for the way he handled an investigation of Johnson and his nonprofit
group, which received hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal grants from the Corporation for National Community Service. The corporation runs the AmeriCorps program.
On Thursday, Obama said in a letter to Congress that he had lost confidence in Walpin. Neither the president nor deputy White House press secretary Josh Earnest would give details.

"It's The Money" by Will Grigg

Pro Liberate
What is it that turns a man into a specimen like Acting United States Attorney Edward R. Ryan, whose name is inscribed on the tissue of lies and totalitarian assertions called a "Bill of Indictment" against four key figures in NORFED, aka the Liberty Dollar organization?
To
at least some extent, it must be the money (or at least the officially
sanctioned similacrum of the same) that provides for Ryan's material
comforts and subsidizes whatever squalid vices he enjoys. Since Ryan is
a servant of the kleptocracy we can assume that vice, of some kind,
plays a significant role in his discretionary time: Someone who steals
for a living isn't likely to be a moral paragon when he's off the clock.

Obama Bows on Settling Detainees
06-11-2009
•
Washington Post
The Obama administration has all but abandoned plans to allow
Guantanamo Bay detainees who have been cleared for release to live in
the United States, administration officials said, a decision
that reflects bipartisan congressional opposition to admitting such
prisoners but complicates efforts to persuade European allies to accept
them.

than seven years in captivity, his lawyers said.

James Von Brunn Plays Right Into the Zionist's Hands

Zionists Play the Jews and Blacks versus Whites Card
Last week, President Obama delivered a sorrow-filled and remorseful address in Poland, at one of those supposed World War II "death camps" the Nazis ran. Zionist-written history aside, Obama stressed at one point in the speech that there was an epidemic of "holocaust deniers" in the U.S. and on the internet. CNN then spent the next ten minutes talking to Jewish "experts" on "holocaust denial," of course without having ONE dissenting opinion. That's what I call open debate!
Yesterday, a guy who has claimed to be a white supremacist for decades, but doesn't seem to know anyone except through the internet (one of these people he happened to be in contact with was John De Nugent-a recognized leader of the white seperatist movement), walks into the Washington D.C. holohoax museum and blows away, not a JEW, but a BLACK security guard. No jews have died, yet it is being treated by the mainst

National Healthcare Plans Would Kick Seniors to Curb
6/10/09
•
Newsmax
Here is what this “efficiency” would mean in stark terms: severely restricting healthcare services to our elderly, and the severely and terminally ill. “Efficiency” here means providing services to millions of young and healthy, who do not need much of it, and cutting healthcare to seniors and the severely ill who “statistically do not have as much to lose by not getting good healthcare.” ....
