Washington, DC -- March 11, 2010
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and
prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has obtained documents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) detailing
federal investigations into the alleged corrupt activities of Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). The documents
reference serious allegations of corruption and voter registration fraud by ACORN as well as the Obama administration’s decision to
shut down a criminal investigation without filing criminal charges.
The documents include background information on two specific
complaints filed in October 2008 by Lucy Corelli and Joseph Borges, Republican Registrars of Voters in Stamford and Bridgeport, Connecticut,
respectively, during the 2008 election season.

Mexican Military Incursion In Texas
Last Updated: Fri, 03/12/2010 - 11:46am
Highlighting the U.S. government’s perpetual
failure to secure the southern border, a Mexican military helicopter was photographed by a Texas sheriff this week flying over a residential
neighborhood at least a mile into the American side of the Rio Grande.
These sorts of invasions by Mexico’s corrupt military,
long on the drug cartel payroll, have been going on for years but the timing of this incursion is especially alarming since it occurred
on the same week that Homeland Security officials revealed Mexican drug cartels are rapidly infiltrating federal law enforcement agencies
along the southwest border.
Testifying before a U.S. Senate panel, Homeland Security officials said that more than 400 public
corruption cases involving federal, state and local enforcement personnel in the crime-infested Mexican border region have been solved
in the last two years alone. Additionally, 576 corruption cases were opened in 2009 involving Border Patrol agents.
This makes
the repeated Mexican military incursions all the more abominable, especially since U.S. officials know they’re occurring. Last year
Judicial Watch obtained Homeland Security records documenting 226 incursions by Mexican government personnel into the United States
between 1996 and 2005. Obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, the annual intelligence summaries of “Mexican Government Incidents”
were designated as “limited official use” by the Department of Homeland Security requiring “special protection against unauthorized
or inadvertent disclosure.”
The following has not been documented as of this point in time...
This could be a scandal of epic proportions and one that makes Nixon's Watergate or Clinton 's Monica Lewinsky affair pale by comparison. Why was there neither rhyme nor reason as to which dealerships of the Chrysler Corporation were to be closed? Roll the clock back to the weeks just before Chrysler declared bankruptcy. Chrysler, like GM, was in dire financial straits and federal government "graciously" offered to "buy the company" and keep them out of bankruptcy and "save jobs." Chrysler was, in the words of Obama and his administration, "Too big to fail," same story with GM.
The feds organized their "Automotive Task Force" to fix Chrysler and GM. Obama, in an act that is 100% unconstitutional, appointed a guy named Steve Rattner to be the White House's official Car Czar - literally, that's what his title is. Rattner is the liaison between Obama, Chrysler, and GM.
Initially, the national media reported that Chrysler had made this list of dealerships. That is not true. The Washington Examiner, Newsmax, Fox New and a host of other news agencies discovered that the list of dealerships was put together by the "Automotive Task Force" headed by no one other than Mr. Steve Rattner.
Now the plot thickens. Remember earlier we said that there was neither rhyme nor reason why certain dealerships were closed? Actually there's a very interesting pattern as to who was closed down. Again, on May 27, 2009, The Washington Examiner and Newsmax exposed the connection. Amazingly, of the 789 dealerships closed by the federal government, 788 had donated money, exclusively to Republican political causes, while contributing nothing to Democratic political causes. The only "Democratic" dealership on the list was found to have donated $7,700 to Hillary's campaign, and a bit over $2,000 to John Edwards. This same dealership, reportedly, also gave $200.00 to Obama's campaign. Does that seem a little odd to you? Read the entire article
This venerable and much honored WW II vet is well known in Hawaii for his seventy-plus years of service to patriotic organizations
and causes all over the country. A humble man without a political bone in his body, he has never spoken out before about a government
official, until now. He dictated this letter to a friend, signed it and mailed it to the president.
Dear President Obama,
My name is Harold Estes, approaching 95 on December 13 of this year. People meeting me for the first time don't believe my age because I remain wrinkle free and pretty much mentally alert.
I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1934 and served proudly before, during and after WW II retiring as a Master Chief Bos'n Mate. Now I live in a "rest home" located on the western end of Pearl Harbor , allowing me to keep alive the memories of 23 years of service to my country.
One of the benefits of my age, perhaps the only one, is to speak my mind, blunt and direct even to the head man.
So here goes.
I am amazed, angry and determined not to see my country die before I do, but you seem hell bent not to grant me that wish.

Dems Target Private Retirement Accounts
from the Carolina Journal 11/4/08
Democratic leaders in the U.S. House discuss confiscating
401(k)s, IRAs
RALEIGH — Democrats in the U.S. House have been conducting hearings on proposals to confiscate
workers’ personal retirement accounts — including 401(k)s and IRAs — and convert them to accounts managed by the Social Security Administration.
Triggered by the financial crisis the past two months, the hearings reportedly were meant to stem losses incurred by many workers and retirees whose 401(k) and IRA balances have been shrinking rapidly.
The testimony of Teresa Ghilarducci, professor of economic policy analysis at the New School for Social Research in New York, in hearings Oct. 7 drew the most attention and criticism. Testifying for the House Committee on Education and Labor, Ghilarducci proposed that the government eliminate tax breaks for 401(k) and similar retirement accounts, such as IRAs, and confiscate workers’ retirement plan accounts and convert them to universal Guaranteed Retirement Accounts (GRAs) managed by the Social Security Administration.

Cloward-Piven Government
By James Simpson
It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to
lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact.
In September of last year, American Thinker
published my article, Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis. Part of a series, it connected then-presidential candidate
Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government.
Since then, the story of that strategy has found its way across the blogosphere, onto the airwaves of radio stations across the country,
the Glenn Beck television show, Bill O'Reilly, and now Mark Levin.
The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and
we can all be grateful to David Horowitz and his 'Discover the Networks' for originally exposing and explaining it to us. He describes
it as:
The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the
fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis
and economic collapse.
Response to Obama's State of the Union Address 2010
Dear Colleague:
If you're like me, you were astounded by the State of the Union. Of course, it was predictable, but it is now more obvious than ever that the President of the United States doesn't have the foggiest idea as to how to set this country on the path towards prosperity and security. He not only fails to grasp the underlying issues that brought us into this recession, he is apparently blind to the actions on his part that have made this recession far worse.

The state of the union is as follows: our unemployment is at its highest in decades. Unemployment is at its
highest because America's small businesses aren't hiring the nation's working families. America's small businesses aren't hiring,
not because the government hasn't spent enough, and not just because government continues to saddle them with onerous regulatory and
paperwork burdens, but because these small businesses see through the President's agenda and what it means for them. Why would
any small business assume the expense of hiring more people if the President's agenda is going to drive up their health care costs,
drive up their energy costs, and ultimately drive up the costs for manpower and materials?

"I'm 63 and Im Tired"
by Robert A. Hall
I'm 63. Except for one semester in college when jobs were scarce and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every day, I've worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven't called in sick in seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, there's no retirement in sight, and I'm tired. Very tired.
I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.
I'm tired of being told that I have to pay more taxes to "keep people in their homes." Sure, if they lost their jobs or got sick, I'm willing to help. But if they bought McMansions at three times the price of our paid-off, $250,000 condo, on one-third of my salary, then let the left-wing Congress-critters who passed Fannie and Freddie and the Community Reinvestment Act that created the bubble help them with their own money.

Understanding the Democrats' Scheme
By John F. Gaski
Poor Bill O'Reilly and Brit Hume. There they were on the O'Reilly show a
few weeks ago, puzzling over why Barack Obama and the Democrats are doing so many things that are damaging to our country. Bill and
Brit agreed that they couldn't possibly be harming the nation intentionally, because negative voter reaction would redound to them
politically and electorally. Can't the Democrats see this? Did they suddenly get stupid politically? This is so unlike them. How to
explain this anomaly?
Poor Bill and Brit, and many others, indeed. It is time to think the unthinkable and speak the ineffable.
Apart from the troubling question of intent, or whether Obama-Pelosi-Reid just have a novel view of the public interest, the national
Democrats are unnaturally and mysteriously sanguine despite growing backlash by the American people. Why? One reason: The Dems
don't believe they will ever have to face a real election again. Is their plan not becoming obvious? It is very straightforward:
(1)
Grant amnesty to the illegal aliens (the correct term for lawbreaking invaders, regardless of their natural and rational motives)
which will create up to 30 million reliably Democrat voters -- especially after being registered at least once each by ACORN. That
is cushion enough to carry any national election. Why else could Dems be so fixated on this agenda item?
Muslim world missing from Haitian aid
Thank goodness President Barack Obama told
the world last June that the United States could be seen as “one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.” If it weren’t for
that declaration there wouldn’t be one Muslim country helping out in Haiti.

Speaker Pelosi spends your hard-earned tax dollars on expensive booze
Respectfully
demand that your representative stop these abuses of taxpayer dollars
February 1, 2010
According to WorldNetDaily
(WND), Judicial Watch has obtained documents under the Freedom of Information Act which reveal that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has
spent over $2.1 million on air travel over the last two years, treating the Air Force jets on which she flies as if they were her
own personal air taxi service.
She often reserves the jets, then cancels them at the last minute despite the considerable cost
involved in pre-flight preparations.
Worse, $101,000 of that total was for food and alcohol consumed by her, her staff, her family
members and other invited passengers while in flight. (See the actual receipts for the hard liquor here.)
Richard Reid, The Shoe Bomber Verdict
Remember the guy who got on a plane with a bomb built into his shoe and tried to light it? Did
you know his trial is over? Did you know he was sentenced? Did you see/hear any of the judge's comments on TV or Radio?
Didn't think so.!!! Everyone should hear what the judge had to say.
Ruling by Judge William Young, US District Court
Prior to sentencing, the Judge asked the defendant if he had anything to say. His response: After admitting his guilt to the court for the record, Reid also admitted his 'allegiance to Osama bin Laden, to Islam, and to the religion of Allah,' defiantly stating, 'I think I will not apologize for my actions,' and told the court 'I am at war with your country.'
Judge Young then delivered the statement quoted below:

AARP: Reform advocate and insurance salesman
Seniors group makes millions from royalties on health plans
By Dan Eggen
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, October 27, 2009
The nation's preeminent seniors group, AARP, has put the weight of its 40 million members behind health-care reform, saying many of the proposals will lower costs and increase the quality of care for older Americans.
But not advertised in this lobbying campaign have been the group's substantial earnings from insurance royalties and the potential benefits that could come its way from many of the reform proposals.
The group and its subsidiaries collected more than $650 million in royalties and other fees last year from the sale of insurance policies, credit cards and other products that carry the AARP name, accounting for the majority of its $1.14 billion in revenue, according to federal tax records. It does not directly sell insurance policies but lends its name to plans in exchange for a tax-exempt cut of the premiums.

To Obama
by Patrick J. Buchanan
Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America.. Fair enough. But this
time, it has to be a two-way conversation. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.. This time, the Silent Majority
needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are:
These: First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known. Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

Second, no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white
Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the ' 60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants,
student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community
into the mainstream.
Jason Whitlock, race-baiting the Super Bowl
Peter Heck - Guest Columnist AFA - 3/1/2010 8:45:00 AM
The old adage says
that religion and politics don't mix. Someone needs to tell FOX Sports writer Jason Whitlock that sports and politics don't
either. In his February 17 column dedicated to ranking the top ten quarterbacks of all-time, Whitlock made one of the most ridiculous,
outrageous, and boneheaded statements any sports reporter has made in a very long time.
Whitlock was describing the game-clinching play of Super Bowl XLIV when Saints defensive back Tracy Porter jumped a route being run by Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne, intercepted quarterback Peyton Manning's pass, and galloped down the field for a touchdown, securing the Saints win. For Indiana folks like me, it was heartbreaking. For the folks of New Orleans...ecstasy.
But Whitlock managed to drive a political wedge into what should have otherwise been left as a thrilling moment of sports history by writing, "A black defensive back outsmarted a beloved white quarterback. I know. That's a truth many of you can't handle. It makes you uncomfortable."
Child Marriage still an issue in Saudi Arabia
"The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with 'Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she
was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)." -- Bukhari 7.62.88
This is Muhammad's example.
It will be essentially impossible to keep Muslim men from emulating his example as long as he is held up as the supreme model for
conduct (cf. Qur'an 33:21).
Sharia Alert from the Kingdom of the Two Holy Places: "Child marriage still an issue in Saudi Arabia,"
by Joel Brinkley for the San Francisco Chronicle, March 13:
Saudi Arabia has a serious child-marriage problem.
It's emblematic
of the nation's struggle between modernity and traditional Islam. But the lives of thousands of little girls are being destroyed as
the Saudi government ponderously debates a solution.
