(Bloomberg Business) Dec. 16, 2014 - Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush said today that he's taking another step toward running for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016. Bloomberg Politics’ Mark Halperin reports on “Market Makers.”
A right wing maniac, part of the royal Bush Dynasty, former governor of distorted and perverse Florida -- who speaks Spanish and is married to a Latina -- wants to be selected as the next president of the U.S., Inc. Are the capitalists biting, and will the rest of us go along with it without too many protests? Who would be vice president? Let's bring back Dick Cheney for another eight years.
Give me another chance, motherf*thers!
We have had many long years of disappointment attributed to liberalism, socialism, Islam, and Nazism but which are actually a continuation of Bush-Cheney policies. Obama has done everything within his power to promote the Bush agenda in the name of an "alternative," "change," and a "Yes we can" attitude. Why not swing even further to the right, going from George W. to Jeb (Johnny Ellis) Bush? If Germans had a choice, would they have voted Dolfie Hitler or Joey Goebbels?

Will we take Karl Rove or keep watching MSNBC and pretending we are levelheaded moderates when all of our policies are to the right of former Republican presidents Reagan and Nixon? We have moved to the right of those icons because the who board is being moved to the right. There is no actual left wing representation, just nominal (by name only) "liberals" and "progressives." It's all relative.
Republican extremists are ruthless, sensible, intolerant who will say anything to win.
What do these men have in common? God-Kings? Retiring from political life to lead a more spiritual existence? No, they were painted by an infantilized madman. And that man, we maintain, is the very face of evil. He's no mover or shaker, no architect of his own rise, no brilliant tactician or orator -- but instead the mouthpiece of a thousand points of light, the New World Order's answer to the gramophone, a Hitler to Rove's Goebbels. You know who.

Former US Vice President Dick Cheney is making headlines after canceling an appearance in Toronto, reportedly citing safety concerns.
"Dick Cheney cancels Toronto trip, says Canada is too dangerous," bleated the headline in the National Post, which made the story a featured headline pick Tuesday on its homepage at nationalpost.com.
Ryan Ruppert, president of promotions company Spectre Live Corp., which scheduled Cheney's April 24 appearance at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, said Cheney and his daughter, Elizabeth, canceled citing safety concerns. "After speaking with their security advisors, they changed their mind on coming to the event," Ruppert told CTV Network. They "decided it was better for their personal safety they stay out of Canada."...
Karl Rove runs after being confronted by Code Pink's Jodie Evans
[C]ritics there call him a "war criminal" and blame him for human rights violations including the United States' controversial use of waterboarding to elicit information from terrorist suspects. [He is apparently afraid of being arrested, extradited, and brought up on war crime charges in an international court such as the Hague. And if Canada cannot guarantee that he will not be arrested, he is staying put where his cousin, B.S. Obama, can protect him from being prosecuted or, if need be, pardon him after conviction.] More
Senator Daniel K. Inouye (Hawaii) in 1987 Chaired the Senate Select Committee on Secret Military Assistance to Iran and the Nicaraguan Opposition, which held public hearings on the Iran-Contra affair. Senator Inouye summarized its involvement by saying:
"There exists a shadowy government with its own Air Force, its own Navy, its own fundraising mechanism, and the ability to pursue its own ideas of the national interest, free from all checks and balances, and free from the law itself."
The full-length (90 min.) version of Bill Moyer's 1987 scathing critique of criminal subterfuge in the United States. It is carried out by the executive branch of the US government. A hidden and secretive group carries out operations that are clearly contrary to the wishes and values of the American people, their elected representatives, and most arms of the military and law enforcement.
The significance of the documentary is probably greater today than when it was made. We now have a situation in which these same "shadowy" forces (elements in the Pentagon, CIA, NSA, NSC, TSA, and Homeland Security) have committed the most egregious terrorist acts on US soil while justifying their treasonous activities by declaring a fraudulent "War on Terror." (It is impossible to win a war against a tactic, but that's the point -- endless war).
The ruling unelected regime in the US has insisted on the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq (and the destabilization of China, Japan, Iran, Libya, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Egypt, Syria, Yemen, Bahrain, Iran, North Korea, and any other state or stateless entity it determines is blocking its ambition total dominance sometimes referred to as the New World Order or the realization of Biblical Revelation). The same regime is now banging the war drum against the Muslim Brotherhood because it needs an inexhaustible "enemy" (having lost its Cold War partner with the fall of the USSR).
The subterfuge is legal as well as extralegal. The PATRIOT ACT, launched by Cheney/Bush and ratified (unread) by a very cooperative and fearful elected government, has stripped us of many of our basic civil rights. This is justified by the terror of 9/11, which was the shadow government's own doing.
The TSA, FEMA, Homeland Security, and other such institutions are engaged in abuses to prepare the public for living in a police state without end and without the necessity of false flag operations to secure our cooperation.
“Fair Game” Blu-ray widescreen and DVD widescreen, 2010, PG-13 for brief language. Best extra: There’s only one and it’s a doozie -- the commentary with former C.I.A. operative Valerie Plame-Wilson and her husband, Joe Wilson.
“IT’S A SURREAL experience,” Valerie Plame says, reacting to the movie based on her assignment as a C.I.A. operative. Plame had been assigned to a special task force to investigate Saddam Hussein’s reported weapons of mass destruction. When results proved he had none, her identity was revealed by the traitorous Bush administration -- putting Plame, her family, and the informants she had worked with in jeopardy. It is assumed that many of Plame’s contacts died. More
BEVERLY HILLS (CBS) ― About 100 fans came out to hear Karl Rove at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills Monday night to discuss his book Courage and Consequences: My Life As a Conservative In The Fight, -- but the fight wasn't contained to his book. Anti-war protesters came out, some rushing the stage, to call Rove a "war criminal" and worse. The fans came to get their books signed, but they never got that chance. One woman, the co-founder of the anti-war group Code Pink, approached him with handcuffs and said she was there to make a citizen's arrest. Jodie Evans charged him with "outing a CIA agent...you lied to take us to war..." and "totally ruining the country." KCAL 9's Dave Bryan was there and said Rove "was shouted down and forced to leave the stage." More>>
While President Obama makes plans to escalate Bush's war in Afghanistan to make it his own, he also has to prepare to receive his Nobel Peace Prize. Human Rights Watch and Amnesty Int'l gave Obama mixed reviews on his human rights record a day before he is slated to accept the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. They urged him use his acceptance speech on Thursday to renew U.S. leadership on human rights after it was undermined by abuses committed during the Bush administration's endless "war" on terrorism.
Happy Holidays from the American President (Diwali is the Indian "Festival of Lights")
Gil Kerlikowske, the new White House drug czar, signaled yesterday his openness to rethinking the government's approach to fighting drug use.
Kerlikowske says [war] analogy is counterproductive; shift aligns with administration preference for treatment over incarceration
WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration's new drug czar says he wants to banish the idea that the U.S. is fighting "a war on drugs," a move that would underscore a shift favoring treatment over incarceration in trying to reduce illicit drug use.
In his first interview since being confirmed to head the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, Gil Kerlikowske said yesterday the bellicose analogy was a barrier to dealing with the nation's drug issues.
"Regardless of how you try to explain to people it's a 'war on drugs' or a 'war on a product,' people see a war as a war on them," he said. "We're not at war with people in this country." More>>
