Romney Must Go on Offense
on Media, Middle East

Breitbart's Big Journalism, by Pat Caddell Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought- 9/28/2012 8:02:18 PM Post Reply

Mitt Romney is not going to win the White House if he doesn’t speak in plain terms about the true nature of this election campaign. That is, if Romney doesn’t stand up and point out the obvious--that he’s not going one on one with Barack Obama, but rather one on two, with Obama being helped by the Main Stream Media--then he has no chance of rallying the support he needs to win the election. In a football game, a team can’t win if the referees are helping the other team. And in the Romney vs. Obama Bowl, the refs

National power-grid tech blueprints
'stolen by Chinese hackers'

Register [London, UK], by John Leyden Original Article

An espionage attack on Telvent - the maker of power-grid control systems and smart meters - has been linked to a prolific Chinese hacking crew. Telvent, a division of Schneider Electric, has admitted hackers breached its corporate network, implanted malicious software and lifted sensitive project files. The raid spanned Telvent systems in the US, Canada and Spain, according to a letter sent to the company's customers this month. Criminals can now study the documents for vulnerabilities in the systems, and potentially devise attacks to sabotage nations' electricity distribution networks.

We know that the mainstream media is in the tank for President Obama. It took them two full weeks to turn their attention to the inconsistencies in the Obama administration’s Libya cover story. So it’s no surprise to find that they’re not covering continuing turmoil in the Muslim world. At all. (Snip) protests continue outside our embassies around the globe. As Jim Geraghty points out, hundreds of Thai Muslims are massed around our embassy in Bangkok, Thailand; Bangladesh’s police reported that they had picked up a university professor for planning an attack on our embassy in Dhaka; hundreds more Muslims

Democrats: Investigate Benghazi

Don’t be fooled by the supposedly bipartisan effort to investigate the Obama administration’s actions after the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya. Democrats are no more serious about challenging their leader in the White House than they have ever been. Trying to pass off his actions as part of a bipartisan effort at investigation, Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry (D-Mass.) started circulating a letter that his aides said would be asking for more information. (Snip) But here’s the salient point, and how the Democrats are duping the public into thinking that they truly want an investigation: Kerry

Washington - In a bid to hold onto his House seat, freshman Republican Rep. Allen West is making his opponent's bleary mug shot from nine years ago the focus of a blistering ad. On a single night in February 2003, the ad released Friday notes, West was on an Army base in Texas, preparing to go to war. College student Patrick Murphy, meanwhile, was being arrested outside a Miami-area nightclub after an alleged drunken brawl, the ad says. "Two men, a country in crisis. You decide," says a narrator.

It was a case of turning lemonade into lemons -- Sarah Palin-style, contends a self-described citizen lobbyist. Chip Thoma, a longtime Alaska activist, said the former Alaska governor ordered her staff to destroy his reputation after he complained about the large number of tour buses driving by for a peek at the governor’s mansion. Palin, he said in a federal court lawsuit, saw an opportunity to portray herself as a victim of his traffic complaints. She directed her staff to put out the word that Thomawas not only trying to drive her out of the governor’s mansion,

Fox News devoted a fair amount of time this afternoon to broadcasting live footage of a car chase in the Arizona desert. At one point, Fox anchor Shepard Smith expressed dismay with a director’s decision to cut away in mid-chase from the Dodge car speeding down a highway. “If it were up to me, we’d stay with this,” he told his viewers.

Venezuela's president and candidate for reelection, Hugo Chávez, asserted on Wednesday on a visit to the town of Coro, Falcón state (northwest Venezuela) that the request for a TV debate made by the presidential candidate for the opposition Unified Democratic Panel (MUD) Henrique Capriles a few days ago, "shows that they are losing," because, from his point of view, the trend favoring Chavezism is "irreversible." The Head of State asserted that Capriles was a "political illiterate," and asked, "Who is going to debate with you, boy? First, you have to learn how to talk."

Weeks before members of U.S. Sen. Scott Brown's staff were caught on camera taunting supporters of his opponent, Elizabeth Warren, by imitating “tomahawk chops” and “war whoops chants,” Bob Bolduc, a disabled veteran experienced it. Mr. Bolduc, who has Native American heritage, said that while holding signs for Ms. Warren in Auburn and Worcester, he would occasionally be passed by motorist who would throw war whoops and other stereotypical Native American utterances at him. “Here I am a person with Native American heritage, and these people were treating me

One of the reasons why Barack Obama is regarded as the greatest orator of our age is that he's always banging on about some other age yet to come – e.g., the Future! A future of whose contours he is remarkably certain and boundlessly confident: The future will belong to nations that invest in education because the children are our future, but the future will not belong to nations that do not invest in green energy projects because solar-powered prompters are our future, and, most of all,

Elvis Presley's daughter has been selling fish and chips from the back of a van in the sleepy English village where she lives. It is the latest example of Lisa Marie Presley, 44, and her guitarist husband, California native Michael Lockwood, embracing local life since moving to Rotherfield, in southeast England, two years ago. Her secret fish-and-chip gig delighted her friends, Kim and Justin Scales, who run the business.

The office of the United States' top intelligence official appeared to take the blame Friday for the Obama administration's changing narrative on the U.S. Consulate attack in Libya, saying administration officials who initially claimed the attack was spontaneous did so based on intelligence officials' guidance. The statement by Shawn Turner, spokesman for Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, was put out late Friday -- (Snip) Turner's statement marked a complete reversal from the initial claims.

In Florida this afternoon, Vice President Joe Biden reminded supporters that thanks to President Obama, they could now get colonoscopies without a co-pay. During his speech, Biden reminded the audience that some of their Republican friends would distort Obama’s record on Medicare. “Everyone knows, everyone in this room knows that President Obama has increased the benefits available to people on Medicare by the action he took,” Biden said. “You are now able to go get a wellness exam, and guys, if you conclude you need a colonoscopy because of the feeling you had or you need a breast health examination,

It has become the new battle cry for Republicans: All the polls showing Mitt Romney trailing by big margins are just wrong because pollsters are interviewing too many Democrats. Surveys showing President Barack Obama leading nationally by 5 to 7 points, and even more in swing states, have come under fire from the Romney campaign and conservatives who accuse polling companies of misjudging their data at best, (Snip) While pollsters say the Republicans are griping because they are losing, the kernel of the conservatives' complaints - that pollsters frequently survey more Democrats than Republicans - is true.

Last week, First Lady Michelle Obama sounded a battle cry at a Congressional Black Caucus awards dinner when she said protecting the right to vote is the nation’s most important civil rights issue. If that were true, that would mean there no credible civil rights concerns in the country. What Obama was talking about was the effort by Democrats to prevent the implementation of laws requiring voters to present a photo ID when casting their ballots. The common sense measure has the support of the overwhelming majority of Americans.

The U.S. intelligence community has revised its assessment of the deadly attack on the American consulate in Libya, saying it now believes it was a deliberate terrorist assault. In an unusual statement on Friday, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence sought to explain how it has revised its view of the September 11 attack on the diplomatic post that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others.

LOS ANGELES --George W. Bush, Tony Blair, and John Howard have all retired. Barack Obama is hiding under the covers unable to function until Valerie Jarrett pats him on the head and reminds him how special he is. That gives him the courage to spend time with Joy Behar and the rest of "The View" while Benjamin Netanyahu tried to prevent a global armageddon. Mr. Obama will not use the words "Radical Islam." This is moral abdication. Bibi is now the leader of the free world.

Belief among Americans that the Federal Reserve Board chairman has too much economic clout has softened a bit from previous years, but a plurality continues to feel the chairman of the independent agency is influenced in his decision making by the president.

Six percent (6%) say the chairman does not have enough power, while 38% say the level is about right. Another 15% are undecided.

Thrill still gone for Obama

Young voters are tuning out the 2012 presidential campaign and fewer have registered to vote than four years ago, when young adults were a key element of Barack Obama’s coalition. But several factors could limit Mitt Romney’s ability to benefit from those trends, according to a new Pew Research Center analysis. The study found, for example, that the drop off in young-voter engagement in this year’s election has been even greater among those who plan to vote Republican than it is among Democrats. At the same time, moderate Republicans of all ages are less engaged.

One way of gaming out what is happening in this election is to compare George W. Bush’s approval rating in 2004 with Barack Obama’s approval rating now. So where are we? Well, Obama continues to track Bush, but is running just slightly behind him. So consider that a warning for overconfident liberals — or conservatives in premature despair. By this metric, Obama is on track to win, but just barely. The numbers, per Gallup.

President Obama accused Mitt Romney of shooting first and asking questions later when responding to violence unfolding in the Middle East. But a quick review of the timeline, and the White House's "evolving" explanation for the attacks on the Benghazi consulate are beginning to make it clear that Obama's the one who's guilty of speaking too soon. “Let’s be clear, these protests were in reaction to a video that had spread to the region,” White House press secretary Jay Carney said on Sept. 14.

This breaking story comes straight from The Blaze. A clip from a recent Romney/Ryan rally has recently been played over and over at MSNBC highlighting what appears to be an embarrassing moment on the campaign trail for Governor Romney. Originally aired on Wednesday's "Morning Joe," the clip shows Paul Ryan introducing Romney as the MSNBC-added text appears on the screen proclaiming that the crowd is shouting "Ryan!" Romney gets the mic and asks the crowd to say "Romney/Ryan!" Joe Scarborough covers his face and grumbles out the words, "Sweet Jesus." Then the Blaze received a call from one of the rally attendees:
