FBI wouldn’t exclude extrajudicial killings in the US

Via Russia Today: "United States Attorney General Eric Holder recently explained how the president can order the assassination of his own citizens abroad. But did his rationalization justify executions within the US? Apparently, the FBI wouldn’t exclude it." More here.

Not only is the ordered assassination of US citizens in lieu of a fair trial deplorable, but the fact it can even be done on US soil signifies that our freedoms have truly been consistently stripped away to the point of nonexistence. How much further will this go before the citizens rise up and reclaim their freedom?

US staff sergeant kills 16 Afghan civilians, officials say

Via MSNBC: "A U.S. service member shot dead at least 15 members of two Afghan families as well as a 16th person before turning himself in, officials said Sunday. U.S. officials said the soldier was a staff sergeant." More here.
This is sick, and part of the reason we need to get out of these pointless wars.

Congress Approved H.R. 347 Could Make Most Forms of Protest Illegal

Via The Examiner: "On Ron Paul’s website it was duly noted that H.R. 347 could make the First Amendment illegal. No one is really covering this bill and the major media call it non-controversial. The innocent sounding bill titled The Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011 was passed Tuesday with only three dissenting votes including Ron Paul, and passed unanimously in the Senate. This bill dubbed the Anti-Occupy law was passed without one single Democrat speaking up for the First Amendment.

Once this Bill is signed into law some including Ron Paul believe it will make it a felony to exercise your first Amendment rights of Free Speech. Several of those commenting opined that the nearly unanimous vote proves that despite all the posturing both parties stand shoulder to shoulder in their defense of the greed and entitlement of the 1% from the rest of us. When you couple this with the indefinite detention of Americans in the National Defense Authorization Act it is clear that Obama is part of a ruling corporate oligarchy and is surely no Progressive."

These laws removing our freedoms need to be stopped before it's too late.

Barbara Bush calls 2012 race 'worst campaign I've ever seen'

The former first lady via Politico: “I think it’s been the worst campaign I’ve ever seen in my life,” she said Monday at Southern Methodist University during a conference on the influence of the nation’s first ladies. I hate that people think compromise is a dirty word. It’s not a dirty word. I think the rest of the world is looking at us these days and saying, ‘What are you doing?’”

Not just the rest of the world, but our side of the world too! I can't believe anyone would vote for any of these blithering idiots. Save for Ron Paul, the GOP is looking like the aftermath of the other word for "santorum." (google it)

Via The Huffington Post:

"Two radio stations announced Monday that they have dropped Rush Limbaugh's show from their stations in the wake of the talk show host's offensive comments about law student Sandra Fluke.

Just as troubling for Limbaugh, at least nine former sponsors of Limbaugh's program — including AOL, parent company of The Huffington Post — have cut their ties with the top-rated host. Several did so after his apology."

More here.

Back story via The Huffington Post, in case you missed it:

"Fluke, a law student at Georgetown University who was advocating for health insurance plans to cover the cost of contraception, became the target of a series of attacks by Limbaugh. Besides calling her a 'slut,' he also called her a 'prostitute,' said that he wanted her to make sex tapes and post them online, and speculated that she only had a problem paying for contraception because she was having 'so much sex.'"

I hope all of his sponsors back out. This is absurd. Obviously free speech should be protected, but this guy should not be getting paid to be spouting his often misogynistic and racist drivel.

Do people really think this man should be our President?!
