Empty Theatre!!!: MSM Currently Brewing Up Phony 'Undefeated' Narrative

bighollywood.breitbart.com

July 15, 2011

One writer. One article. One screening. Apparently, what we used to consider anecdotal now equals news.

With the roaring success "The Undefeated" has already had at changing the conversation about Sarah Palin from tanning beds and crosshair maps to, you know, her actual record as a public servant, the Left and their dishonest allies in the MSM are obviously as worried as they are desperate. As a result, this morning at "The Atlantic" we're greeted with a 950+ word article filled with precious NPR-esque prose and the delicate pose of a journalist just reporting the difficult truth, all under the following headline: "Sarah Palin Movie Debuts to Empty Theater in Orange County"

Jerry Brown's Budget Blowback: 10,000 Amazon Jobs Will Leave California

uncoverage.net

June 30, 2011

Congratulations to the "geniuses" in Sacramento who keep doing the same job-killing things over and over again, somehow expecting a different result.

California Democrats and liberals in general think they can just "pass a tax" on something and more money will flow into state coffers. California hemorrhaged jobs last year with more than 212 businesses leaving the state. As of today, 129 are leaving, which is five times the total in 2009. The new "internet" sales tax which lawmakers "think" will raise $317 million, will now cause Amazon.com to yank 10,000 jobs in California.

US Govt. plant USB sticks in security study, two thirds take the bait

You can have all the firewalls and Internet security software in the world, but sometimes there's just no accounting for human curiosity and stupidity.

Bloomberg reports that The US Department of Homeland recently ran a test on government employees to see how easy it was for hackers to gain access to computer systems, without the need for direct network access. Computer disks and USB sticks were dropped in parking lots of government buildings...

Broome County town clerk quits, cites gay marriage opposition

June 25, 2011

BARKER, N.Y. -- A town clerk in upstate New York says she's resigning over her religious opposition to gay marriage.

Laura Fotusky submitted a letter of resignation to the town board in Barker on Monday, saying her religious beliefs prevent her from signing a marriage certificate for a gay couple, as she'd be required to do as a municipal clerk. The letter was published on the website of the Christian lobbying group New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms.

Editorial: Is Obama's Oil Dump A Political Ploy?

investors.com

June 23, 2011

With Democrats' poll numbers in the dumps, President Obama has decided to release some of the U.S. strategic petroleum reserves to cut prices at the pump. Problem is, its only real "strategic" purpose is politics.

The White House announced Thursday that for only the third time in history, the U.S. would release 30 million barrels of oil from the national stockpile. America's 727 million barrel-strong reserve, buried deep in the salt domes of Texas and Louisiana, was created in the wake of the 1973 Arab oil embargo. It's always been meant to cushion the U.S. economy against shocks from sudden disruptions in oil supplies. The spigots have been opened just twice - in 2005 by President Bush, who released 11 million barrels after disruptions from Hurricane Katrina, and in 1992 by President Bush Sr., who tapped 20 million barrels in the wake of the Gulf War. President Obama's release - which is far bigger than either of those two emergencies - is supposedly in response to disruptions from Libya, which isn't even a U.S. supplier. It isn't our crisis.

Leaked Pentagon Video - Flu Vaccine Use to Modify Human Behavior

June 13, 2011

What you are about to hear is not science fiction or conspiracy theory but a glimpse of what is going on behind the closed doors of the United States Pentagon.

In a small auditorium labeled BC232 a man is presenting a discussion on how the military industrial complex can spread a virus and use a vaccine to extinguish what the pentagon calls undesirable human behavior. Specifically in this case religious behavior. This is dark science my friends. With all the mandatory vaccine programs in the United States do not be deceived for a moment that something like this will not or possibly hasn't already been used on the American public.

Revisiting Unemployment Predictions

economics21.org

June 7, 2011

Back in January 2009, Christina Romer and Jared Bernstein produced a report estimating future unemployment rates with and without a stimulus plan.

Their estimates, which were widely circulated, projected that unemployment would approach 9% without a stimulus, but would never exceed 8% with the plan. The estimates, along with real unemployment rates, are posted below...

The Age of Obama #fail

theblaze.com

June 3, 2011

Recessions come and go. Typically we emerge with strong sustained growth. Not this time. Today we learned that employers added the fewest jobs in 8 months. Unemployment jumped back to 9.1 percent - and really, the level is 15.8 percent.

The housing market still stinks, as does other foundations of the economy. The answer from the Democrats has been bailout after bailout, antiquated economic schemes, huge expansion of regulation, calls for higher taxes, attacks on the profit motive, roadblocks to energy production, increasing moral hazard in markets, more crony capitalism, food stamps, dependency, massive new entitlement program, sharing of the prosperity but less new prosperity, the same wars (and more!), but no budget, no spending cuts and little economic hope.

The Inherently Ideological Evaluation of the GM Bailout

The American Scene

June 2, 2011

Megan McArdle has done consistently excellent reported pieces on the GM bailout, and her recent evaluation of its net effect on the U.S. Treasury is no exception.

Her bottom line is that the deal caused U.S. taxpayers to "burn $10-20 billion in order to give the company another shot at life. To put that in perspective, GM had about 75,000 hourly workers before the bankruptcy. We could have given each of them a cool $250,000 and still come out well ahead compared to the ultimate cost of the bailout including the tax breaks."

Project 60: China Buying Idaho?

commentsonnationalamnesia.com

June 1, 2011

The following excerpts are from an article in the Boise (Idaho) Examiner will not make it to the mainstream media. The article details how Idaho's Governor, Butch Otter, has teamed up with the Obama agenda of globalization.

Governor Butch Otter, in league with....(Barack) Obama, has hatched a plan to make Idaho the first Chinese owned state in America. Otter and company have named this Project 60. Sounds innocent enough, until you realize that Otter and his minions are afraid to call it what it is, globalization of America and surrender of sovereignty. If it were called that someone may want to charge Otter with sedition. Under....Obama it has become increasingly difficult to do business in America, unless you are from a foreign nation. Idaho, under the stewardship of Governor Butch Otter, has opened the door for a Chinese invasion wherein the sovereignty of Idaho and America will be sodomized by all parties involved. Project 60 takes advantage of a federal program that grants permanent residency to foreign nationals, in this case, Chinese. This program comes with special tax exemptions to the foreign firms moving here. American companies do not get the tax exemptions; So much for the Constitution and equal protection. Idaho is struggling financially and it is widely known that America is broke, so why tax breaks for the Chinese?
