Senator accuses Bin Laden
movie director of fabricating
controversial waterboarding scene

Daily Mail (UK), by Meghan Keneally

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 12/10/2012 10:38:19 AM

A high-ranking government official accuses the director of Zero Dark Thirty of fabricating the key waterboarding scene where a terror suspect is interrogated for information that leads to the capture of Osama Bin Laden. Dianne Feinstein, the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, says that the interrogation of Bin Laden´s courier, who then led U.S. military teams to the Al Qaeda leader´s compound, did not involve any waterboarding.(Snip) Their response to Feinstein´s claims, however, gave a bit more room for creative license. ´It’s a movie, not a documentary,´ Boal told The New Yorker.

The intelligence that allowed the US to find Bin Laden came from waterboarding; 0bama was oh so against this "so called" torture, yet, when the Seals finally located Ben Laden from this information gotten from waterboarding, 0bama was the first one to puff out his chest and proclaim all the credit for himself.

There is still many in the liberal progressive Entertainment Indsutry community that will trash the USA when-ever they can...this account one example. Sadly...the DOD,Joint Chiefs,and head of Special Forces Ops want to keep and maintain strict Info controls...while the Obama Team acts in total disregard of such long-held policies sadly.

About Kermit Gosnell And The
Abortion ‘House Of Horrors’ Trial
Mediaite, by AJ Delgado    Original Article
Posted By: JoniTx- 4/12/2013 10:55:51 PM     Post Reply
[Editor´s note: This article contains highly disturbing, graphic images. Please proceed with caution.] Who is Dr. Kermit Gosnell? Dr. Kermit Gosnell, age 72, ran an abortion clinic for over 20 years in Philadelphia, now dubbed as the ‘House of Horrors.’ Gosnell allegedly performed illegal, late-term abortions (past the 24-week limit permitted by law), cutting the spinal cords of countless aborted babies. Gosnell also employed unqualified staff, including teenagers and two other “doctors” who were merely medical school graduates without a license. Gosnell allegedly made millions of dollars over his 30-year career and lucrative cash-only abortion practice, as well as

The First Family’s 2012 tax returns are out today and they show that the Obamas paid an effective federal tax rate of 18.4 percent, almost half of the top tax rate last year. Neil Cavuto reacted on Your World this afternoon as the news broke, pointing out that President Obama slammed Mitt Romney for paying an effective tax rate of 14 percent on his income during the presidential campaign. “Remember what a big deal ‘fatcat Mitt’ supposedly dodging the tax man was then, and ask yourself why the president paying not much more isn’t remotely a big deal now,”

Republican leaders unanimously approved a resolution Friday urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold Proposition 8, the measure under court review that forbids same-sex marriage in California. The Republican National Committee “affirms its support for marriage as the union of one man and one woman, and as the optimum environment in which to raise healthy children for the future of America and … implores the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the sanctity of marriage in its rulings on California’s Proposition 8 and the Federal Defense of Marriage Act,” according to a resolution approved at the group´s meeting in Hollywood.

They say they were just doing what the boss trained them to do. But eight former employees of a run-down West Philadelphia abortion clinic now face prison time for the work they did for Dr. Kermit Gosnell. Three have pleaded guilty to third-degree murder. And Gosnell, 72, is on trial in the deaths of a patient and seven babies allegedly born alive. In testimony at the capital murder trial this past month, an unlicensed doctor and untrained aides described long, chaotic days at the clinic. They said they performed grueling, often gruesome work for little more than minimum wage,

President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama reported income of $608,611 in 2012 and paid $112,214 in total taxes, the White House announced Friday. Tax documents released by the White House show the first family donated $150,034 to 33 different charities, representing nearly a quarter of their gross income. In addition to his federal salary, Obama made $258,772 from book royalties. The president´s effective federal income tax rate was 18.4 percent. That represents a decline in both income and effective tax rate for the first family from 2011, when the president saw an income of $789,674 and paid

LOS ANGELES — Jonathan Winters, the cherub-faced comedian whose breakneck improvisations and misfit characters inspired the likes of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, has died. He was 87. The Ohio native died Thursday evening at his Montecito, Calif., home of natural causes, said Joe Petro III, a longtime family friend. Petro said Winters died of natural causes and was surrounded by family and friends. Winters was a pioneer of improvisational standup comedy, with an exceptional gift for mimicry, a grab bag of eccentric personalities and a bottomless reservoir of creative energy.

JACKSON, Ky.-Breathitt County school officials say they are removing Ten Commandments displays from the high school, middle school and elementary schools. WYMT-TV reports the move came after the schools received a complaint from the Freedom From Religion Foundation. The group´s letter says the displays have been up for years. Kentucky Board of Education officials released a statement saying that the display of religious materials in public schools violates the U.S. Constitution. It goes on to say that the Kentucky Education Department´s focus in Breathitt County "is on student achievement and college and career readiness

It was taken by JD Mullane, a news writer and columnist for the Bucks County Courier Times, The Intel and the Burlington County (NJ) Times. He says: Sat through a full day of testimony at the Kermitt Gosnell trial today. It is beyond the most morbid Hollywood horror. It will change you.

Retail sales unexpectedly fall in March

Posted By: JoniTx- 4/12/2013 8:49:57 AM     Post Reply
WASHINGTON- Retail sales contracted in March for the second time in three months, a sign the American economy may have stumbled at the end of the first quarter. Retail sales fell 0.4 percent during the month, the Commerce Department said on Friday. That was below analysts´ expectations that sales would be flat. Readings for retail sales have been volatile so far this year, making it difficult to know whether the weakness in March was due to a tax hike that went into effect at the start of the year or to temporary factors related to the weather.

At the time, it must have seemed like the ultimate work-study program. Ashley Baldwin, a 15-year-old sophomore at University City High School who was thinking of becoming a doctor, got a job at one of the busiest clinics in West Philadelphia.(Snip) Now 22 and the mother of a 2-year-old son, Baldwin on Thursday told a Philadelphia Common Pleas Court jury hearing Gosnell´s murder trial of her unusual hands-on medical apprenticeship. Baldwin also told the jury about seeing at least five aborted babies moving, breathing, and, in one case, "screeching"

In 2011, the journalist Mara Hvistendahl published Unnatural Selection: Choosing Boys Over Girls, and the Consequences of a World Full of Men, detailing the societal effects of sex-selective abortions that target women the world over and resulted in the absence of perhaps more than 100 million girls who by now should have been born. But Hvistendahl soon learned the downside to uncovering what many believe to be a shocking trend in human rights offenses: people will want to do something about it. And so she lashed out, declaring that “anti-abortion activists

The withdrawal came less than a week after medical school Dean Paul B. Rothman chastised Carson for his comments and met with graduating students concerned that the famed physician was an inappropriate commencement speaker.

Only one of my six children has left New York for economic reasons but the strain of living in this expensive nanny state is weighing heavy on my other five and their families. As a native New Yorker, I´ve seen its middle class population decline over the years due to its neglect of blue collar families which is ironic since this is a Democrat city. With the recent arrests of several local politicians for corruption perhaps New Yorkers will pay more attention to those they put in office. Given their past indifference in local elections this is highly unlikely.

Remember little Anthony Freemont, played by cute little Billy Mumy, in one of the "Twilight Zone´s" most famous episodes? In the opening sequence Rod Serling informs us: "A monster had arrived in the village. Just by using his mind, he took away the automobiles, the electricity, the machines -- because they displeased him -- and he moved an entire community back into the dark ages -- just by using his mind. . . . and the people there have to smile. They have to think happy thoughts and say happy things because once displeased, the monster can wish them into a cornfield

Is Anthony Weiner completely delusional? Or is he out of his flipping, sex-crazed gourd? Whatever big-busted fantasies crawl around the ex-congressman’s delirious noggin, la Weiner made his next goal as clear as the skin of the wholesome college students he craved: He relishes being Mayor Weiner. Please, shut up this clown. These days, the genitally obsessed Weiner has nothing much to do, except sit in his lavish Manhattan apartment and — the inhumanity! — change the poopy diapers of his 16-month-old son, Jordan. Worse, Weiner is living under a kind of house arrest, sentenced to take extreme grief

Seven hundred Military Special Operations professionals. And one insistent and very angry Mom. This is becoming a deadly combination for the political game players in the Obama Administration. Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again. Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.

I’ve been writing about media coverage of abortion for many years. And so have many others. If you haven’t read David Shaw’s “Abortion Bias Seeps Into The News,” published in the Los Angeles Times back in 1990, you should. That report also explains why we cover the topic here at GetReligion.But the thing is that I’m getting kind of sick of pointing out egregious bias only to see things not just remain bad but get worse. Just think, in the last year, we saw the media drop any pretense of objectivity and bully the Susan G. Komen Foundation
