U.S. regulatory czar nominee wants Net 'Fairness Doctrine'
"It's hard to imagine President Obama nominating a more dangerous candidate for regulatory czar than Cass Sunstein," he says. "Not only is Sunstein an animal-rights radical, but he also seems to have a serious problem with our First Amendment rights. Sunstein has advocated everything from regulating the content of personal e-mail communications, to forcing nonprofit groups to publish information on their websites that is counter to their beliefs and mission. Of course, none of this should be surprising from a man who has said that 'limitless individual choices, with respect to communications, is not necessarily in the interest of citizenship and self-government.' If it were up to Obama and Sunstein, everything we read online – right down to our personal e-mail communications – would have to be inspected and approved by the federal government."

Newsmax.com - DHS Chief Napolitano: Illegal Immigration Is Not a Crime
"Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano stunned many listeners during an appearance on CNN when she asserted that illegal immigration is really not a crime."
In an interview with CNN’s John King last week, Napolitano discussed Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz., a strict enforcer of immigration laws who says he wants illegal aliens to be prosecuted and jailed.
King said: “A lot of Democrats in Congress want you to investigate him. They think he is over the line. He says he is just enforcing the law and the problem is the federal government.”

"Thousands of confidential files on the U.S. military's most technologically advanced fighter aircraft have been compromised by unknown computer hackers over the past two years, according to senior defense officials."
In addition to files relating to the aircraft, hackers gained entry into the Air Force's air traffic control systems, according to the officials. Once they got in, the Internet hackers were able to see such information as the locations of U.S. military aircraft in flight.

Killer 'green' bill to slaughter U.S. economy
With hearings in the House of Representatives on the Obama administration's energy and climate change agenda, credible opponents are voicing concern that a U.S. "green" policy may kill the economy, Jerome Corsi's Red Alert reports.
"Hackett attacked the Obama administration's cap-and-trade proposal that will be included in the bill to be before the House committee next week, calling the plan an indirect tax on individuals that would be as open to manipulation as the European model."
John Holdren, director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy told the group that, "The energy challenge we face is actually a more difficult challenge than putting a man on the moon was."
"We have to do things that pervade our whole economy," Holdren insisted, "not just of this country but around the world, in order to get it done to the degree that is required."

Filmmaker: 'Obama, Abraham Lincoln born Muslim'
"A new Islamic film being promoted on the Internet boasts that not only was President Barack Obama born Muslim, so was Abraham Lincoln, who emancipated the slaves and commanded Union soldiers to confront the seceding South."
"The 16th president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, was born a Muslim.
According to the Quran, everybody is born a Muslim," he writes. "It is only by his own free will that a man chooses a different course for himself. In that Abraham Lincoln was not only a born Muslim but he chose to live by Islamic edicts like abolishing organized slavery; establishing equality of all human beings, democracy and accountability to God and man; core Islamic concepts as propounded in the Holy Quran."

"Such segregated Muslim communities are spreading throughout Europe at an alarming pace," Spencer writes.
He quoted Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, of the Muslim Brotherhood, who promised at a conference in Toledo, Ohio, "We will conquer Europe, we will conquer America. … Not through sword but through Da'wa (Islamic proselytizing]."
"If Western Europe does become Islamized, as demographic trends suggest, before too long America will be facing a world that is drastically different and more forbidding than today. And the same process of Islamization will proceed here – unless enough people wake up in time to head it off," Spencer's book warns.
House votes on 'hate crimes' bill
"The U.S. House Judiciary Committee will vote tomorrow on a 'hate crimes' bill that some say might allow federal officials to prosecute Christians who speak out against homosexual behavior."
"The federal government must have authority to be involved in investigating and prosecuting these crimes when state authorities cannot or will not do so."
"H.R. 1913 is a backdoor tool from the far left and radical homosexuals to shut down legitimate free speech from Christians and others who oppose their lifestyle," King said. "It is political payback from the new administration to the homosexual lobby, and could have radical ramifications."
But King noted that pastors in Europe and Canada have already been arrested for preaching against homosexuality based on similar legislation.
WND has also reported that the Obama administration has stated its dedication to strengthening "federal hate crimes legislation" and expanding "hate crimes protection."

Are you licensed to reload that ammo?
President Obama, who supported the handgun ban in Washington, D.C., before it was tossed by the Supreme Court, since his election has watched various proposals to ban "assault" weapons, require handgun owners to submit to mental health evaluations
"'If you reload your own ammo you may find yourself engaged in 'Illicit Manufacturing' of ammunition under an arms control treaty that President Obama started pushing last week in Mexico.'"
"The section … clearly identifies ammo reloaders that are not licensed by the government as 'Illicit Manufacturers' of ammunition.

New law to 'manage' 8 million 'volunteers'
"President Obama today signed into law the 'GIVE Act,' H.R. 1388, which expands massively the National Service Corporation and allocates to it billions of dollars, and one executive for the program now says it will allow for the 'managing' of up to eight or nine million people."
He said the possibility with the expanded authorization and funding means that up to eight or nine million could be involved.
Congress also is considering a "public service academy, a four-year institution that offers a federally funded undergraduate education with a focus on training future public sector leaders."
"We hope sooner or later this will be a part of every citizen's experience," he said.
"But members pressed into the service of the one million-strong Youth Brigade, sanctioned by 'Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE),' will have none of the freedoms of the community organizer who started it all.
Hitler knew that if you control the youth, you control the future. I wrote about him in 'The Threats to Homeschooling: From Hitler to the NEA.' As I noted in that article, Hitler said: 'The Youth of today is ever the people of tomorrow.

"And several organizations are reporting Congress could begin adopting measures similarly draconian to Brazil's as early as this week.
'It is imperative that we contact all members of the House and demand that they vote against this bill as it will not protect a pastor, Bible teacher, Sunday School teacher, youth leader or anyone else from prosecution if he or she teaches against homosexuality if an individual who hears their message then goes out and commits a crime against a homosexual,' wrote Pastor Rick Scarborough of Vision America Action, which as a website link to make that contact."

Experts: Obama biofuel policy boosts world hunger
"The Obama administration's policy of producing ethanol as a renewable fuel substitute for gasoline will add to the number of people in Third World countries who are chronically hungry, according to energy experts.
The administration's mandates for the use of ethanol are 'immoral,' asserts Robert Bryce, managing editor of the monthly industry magazine Energy Tribune.
'We are burning food to make motor fuel at a time when there's a growing global shortage of food and no shortage of motor fuel,' Bryce told WND.
'The corn ethanol scam is not an energy program,' he continued. 'It is a massive farm subsidy program masquerading as an energy program.'"

CNN reporter refers to Hitler as Bush 'lookalike'
CNN reporter Susan Roesgen
"While CNN reporter Susan Roesgen became obviously upset when a Tax Day tea partier compared President Obama to Hitler, she showed no such concern when a protester did the same to President Bush in 2006.
'You know, what is this supposed to mean?' she asked an April 15 tea partier with an agitated tone as she pointed to his anti-Obama poster.
'What do you mean by that?' she demanded, jabbing at his Obama-Hitler representation.
The protester responded, 'He's a fascist.'
'Why do you say he's a fascist?' She asked. 'He's the president of the United States. Do you realize how offensive that is?'"
While Roesgen was clearly upset with the Obama-Hitler comparison, another video shows she unflinchingly referred to a Hitler mask as a President Bush "lookalike" in 2006.
In a Jan. 13, 2006, CNN clip Roesgen reported on another protest during President Bush's administration.
"They and their teachers say more money is needed to fix the levies and they hope the president would stop by after his meeting with business leaders," Roesgen said in a voiceover. "But while a lookalike showed up with a wad of cash, Mr. Bush did not."
She referenced the following paper-mache mask of President Bush with a Hitler haircut and mustache:

Obama will 'quickly' give Palestinians state
"TEL AVIV, Israel – President Obama will move to create a Palestinian state 'more quickly than anybody could imagine.' At least that's the message the Palestinian Authority claims it received from the U.S."
Said the PA negotiator: "They (the U.S. team) told us, 'We don't mind who is the government in Israel. Things will be closed (for a Palestinian state) and more quickly than anybody could imagine."
Following scores of denials he would trumpet the plan, Obama in January hailed the Arab initiative, which offers normalization of ties with the Jewish state in exchange for extreme Israeli concessions. In an interview with an Arab television network – his first formal interview as president – Obama stated:
Palestinians have long demanded the "right of return" for millions of "refugees," a formula Israeli officials across the political spectrum warn is code for Israel's destruction by flooding the Jewish state with millions of Arabs, thereby changing its demographics.

It is more for camera quality than anything else," he surmised. "They don't want distractions that would make the eye wander. I don't think this is motivated by theology, but by communications strategy

I thought he was a Christian, and not a Muslim like many feared, and believed?

'This is not an intelligence report but a diatribe against those who oppose the policies of the Obama administration,' said Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel for the organization."
"It is a declaration of war against the American people and our constitution. It is a prelude to extreme gun control legislation and hate speech laws targeting Christian churches and others who oppose abortion and same sex marriage," he continued.

Rick Perry: Tea party darling - Andy Barr - POLITICO.com
"Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s star is rising among a new constituency — the anti-tax “tea party” crowd — in the wake of his recent endorsement of a Texas state House resolution affirming the state’s sovereignty.
The resolution urges that “all compulsory federal legislation that directs states to comply under threat of civil or criminal penalties or sanctions or that requires states to pass legislation or lose federal funding be prohibited or repealed.”
The Republican governor’s public embrace of that language — a thinly veiled reference toward the conditions set by the Obama administration’s financial stimulus package — and his efforts to reject some of the stimulus funds have made him popular among the big government opponents who attended Wednesday’s “tea party” events across the nation.
“I believe that returning to the letter and spirit of the U.S. Constitution and its essential 10th Amendment will free our state from undue regulations, and ultimately strengthen our Union,” the governor said. “I believe that our federal government has become oppressive in its size, its intrusion into the lives of our citizens, and its interference with the affairs of our state.”"
