Obama Admits Ineligible For President?

The Chinese is what you get if you put Drew's text into translate.google.com for English -> Chinese, presumably, because when I put the Chinese in the opposite way, I got Drew's text in English, exactly.

The point, however, I'm not clear on.

It is so bizarre this shit is still going on. At this rate Mit will ask Pam Geller to be his running mate. The kinds of problems we have vs. the level of debate that exists spell nothing but doom for the republic. The billionaires and the Rev. Headupass are just creating side shows until they are done figuring out how they can survive without one. They are getting pretty fucking close. The Rapture people will be easiest to euthenize they will just have to have some guy in a jezuz (trademark pending) costume tell them if they want to go vacation with him in the sun, it is time to drink the kool-aid. From everyone else the resistance will be stiffer unless they can liquify brains directly through televisternet, which it looks like they have pretty much accomplished already.

Amen. And my exact reason for posting this post is as you say. I'm trying to alert fellow travelers. An ill wind this way blows. As I said previously the constitution is no more. If any disbelieve simply look at the new laws.

and riddle yourself this...one....the ramifications are what they are...

sounds reasonable to me, I see no reason why legal fictions should be absolutely free in their speech (spending). On the other hand, who's really speaking? Perhaps the regulation should be directed at Organizational Leaders. I'm not at all sure this bill as written would work or not, but maybe. Something has to be done about combating psiwar conducted against the US population, doesn't mater who's conducting it, something has to be done, "education" and "more speech" are not getting the job done. At some point we'll have no choice but to use "we the people's" sovereign power to curtail such operations. Complicated, and not easy to do, but MAYBE there's not much choice left before it's too late.

Perhaps the best thing would be to simply BAN TELEVISION AS WE KNOW IT.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi on Thursday endorsed a movement announced by other congressional Democrats on Wednesday to ratify an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow Congress to regulate political speech when it is engaged in by corporations as opposed to individuals.

CNS tell us there's a threat to Citizens' United! Oh noes! eyeno's almost ready to be honest and rename himself Tea Party Repeater.

I don't see television as we know it staying around too much longer. I got rid of mine because it's just stupidly expensive, and for almost zero return on money spent. I think more and more people are gonna realize that it's a ridiculously big monthly expense, and they just don't need to pay money to get a hundred channels of fucking infomercials and reruns.

The only thing I miss, really, is live sports. At some point that will be online (it probably is already, I'm just behind the times) and cable and satellite TV will die out.

[eyeno]

riddler it is not the source of the information that I am concerned with. I have no idea who cns is and I don't care. It is the content of the bill that I take notice of.

This is a potential change to the first amendment. This is serious business. This is speech rights we are talking about. This bill would limit speech. I'm a little old fashioned when it comes to speech. I don't care what people say but I think they should be allowed to say it, whatever it is. When we lose that, its game over.

then maybe the game is over, because there's always been limits. "Fire in a crowded movie theater" isn't that far off from the demagoguery of Fucks News and limbow-style radio that daily spread the most pernicious nonsense and scare-mongering. It's slow-boil incitement to riot. Paid for by some of the nations leading advertisers and it need not go on. It's a national security issue, and it needs to be dealt with. We need to set a tone. Move on with reality-based pubic information media. This info-crack Influencing Operation has to be stopped. Would America sit still as a foreign nation ran a multi-billion dollar decades long psiwar campaign on the People? Of course not, it would be shut down. The American People would SHUT IT DOWN. They would demand it be shut down. Just because the source of that campaign is a private network of the super-rich Lords of Capital and their purchased men, makes no difference. Shut them down, even if we have to shout them down; and ignore them right into history books. Let people know, the right wing war on America is over.

Try googling Firrrst Rrrrow Ssssporrrtssss, spelled correctly. On the day of the game, you'll almost certainly find what you're looking for.

Thanks, I'll check that out. Today I missed a Lakers game, where Metta World Peace wasn't so peaceful and violently elbowed some guy in the head. I am dismayed, I really like to think World Peace means it with his name change. It's a lot to ask, I know.

Yes, I noticed that you coincidentally repeat from all these extreme right wing sites and indeed do not care you are using them as a source and pretend always to have no idea who they are even though you are always posting from them. This bullshit no longer flies. In fact, I respect you too much to believe you are as stupid as you always claim every time you are caught dispensing this right-wing shit here and then pretend to be naive about it. Birther and now straight-up Citizens United, go ahead and stand by it or be gone. It's the lying that is so disgusting about you. You are hands-down the most craven piece of shit on this board with no self-respect whatsoever.

The first amendment? Contrast the treatment of the Occupy movement to the outcome and consequences of Citizens United. The corporations have all the free speech they can buy, citizens have zero if they're not parroting the stupid.

Maybe you should care. It is fine to see what all sides are saying and to try to understand an issue from a different point of view. But if you are hearing nothing but lies, you aren't learning anything about anything, except the propaganda of the hour. If you get anything from such a biased source, you need to spend a little time researching the claims made therein. That goes for any source, really. "Citation needed" at all times.

Here is the fruit of about 90 seconds of research on "cnsnews:" Cybercast News Service (wikipedia)

The CNSNews.com (or Cybercast News Service), formerly called the Conservative News Service, is an American news website owned by the Media Research Center

OK, who is the Media Research Center?
Media Research Center - About Us:

Rush Limbaugh: "CNSnews.com breaks new ground on stories that mainstream journalists don’t cover."
Sean Hannity: "I'm a big fan. I quote CNS News all the time."
Mark Levin: "I read CNSnews.com every day and so should you."

No ownership information, etc plainly visible on the About page. I lost interest.

From the linked article, I can't tell exactly what they are talking about. Has an amendment been put forward in the House, or what? So let us go to Wikipedia: Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission - Legislative responses

...California is also planning on calling a constitutional convention to pass an amendment that would repeal the decision[1]

follow the citation to cbsnews...
Calif. lawmakers vote to overturn Citizens United (cbsnews.com)

Assembly Judiciary Committee Passes Wieckowski, Allen Resolution Urging Congress to Overturn Citizens United
Sacramento – The state Assembly Judiciary Committee voted overwhelmingly Tuesday morning to support a resolution calling on Congress to overturn the United States Supreme Court’s ruling in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. The resolution next heads to the floor of the state Assembly.

Not an amendment yet, not a law; not even a resolution by a state legislature yet. Pelosi not involved, except by party affiliation.

I would not worry; Pelosi can't amend the constitution by herself (only Obama or a future Prezinator can do that by signing statement); a few Republicans would have to vote for it along the way, if I recall my high school civics.

Any amendment that comes from the two major parties will be all but meaningless - unless of course #occupy has some influence in the process, which I hope they do. They - that is, the 99.99% - are the ones who should be feared by cnsnews and by Nancy Pelosi.

No, I'm not clicking on anything else at cnsnews.com. I'm afraid of cooties.

We shouldn't have to pay for broadcast teevee across OUR airwaves, and then be advertised at in spite of paying for it.

I made the mistake of watching a few minutes of CBS morning "news" this a.m. Wow, what a travesty. All Trayvon & secret service. Outrage outrage outrage!

1) Easy, please.

2) Considering how much training and work I put in for that title, I won't lie, I'm offended to see it handed over so casually here.
