from corbett report: We are enslaved in our minds by the most pernicious of creatures: one that doesn’t even exist. Join us today on The Corbett Report as we go in search of that mythical beast called government and imagine a world in which we simply stopped believing in it.

from corbett report: What happened in the 80s doesn't stay in the 80s. Iran-Contra was an historical moment that reaches forwards and backwards in time to connect some of the key political players of the past 50 years... and exposes the shadow government that has been in operation for decades. Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we replace the Orwellian con/text of history by putting Iran-Contra history in context.
from whitehouse.gov: Consistent with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 1622(d), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate threat of further attacks on the United States. Because the terrorist threat continues, the national emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the powers and authorities adopted to deal with that emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 2009. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an additional year the national emergency the former President declared on September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist threat. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.
from nytimes: A shift in authority has given military officials at the White House a bigger operational role in creating a backup government if the nation’s capital were “decapitated” by a terrorist attack or other calamity, according to current and former officials involved in the decision.
In this outing Clyde Lewis demonstrates that America has a plethora of cold case crimes that need to be re-opened and the criminals need to be tried for treason. Barack Obama stood in the hall of records and endorsed Preventative jailing of suspected terrorists. Maybe we should look at the Project for the New American Century as pretext for the crimes of 9/11. The Dystopic Nightmare that America finds itself in today and each day brings new assaults on Freedom and Sanity. The framework for total control of the citizenry, the economy and the media is being built upon in a relentless aggrandizement of Governmental power and perpetual war. Clyde Lewis points out that the despotic empire that we have now was built on little crimes, that grew into bigger crimes, that led to war crimes in Vietnam, perpetual war with the war on terror, and the eventual police state New World Order.
Why is Dick Cheney coming out of the shadows taunting us about terror, torture, and incompetence within the Obama administration? It is because Cheney is part of the “Shadow Government,” so says Clyde Lewis in this outing of the Ground Zero Lounge. Obama still holds sway over the majority of the bewildered herd on the basis of the strength of the cult of personality alone. Apart from that, we need to now understand why we are not seeing Dick Cheney backing off. The reason we are still seeing no justice against torture, the escalation of wars, the failure to reign in the police state and the failure to hold accountable the war criminals is because it is becoming quite obvious that we are still in the stages of transition and the continuity of government. While Obama puts a confident smiley face on Imperialism – It is apparent that we are still under the control of the SHADOW GOVERNMENT which has a number of extremists at the helm ready to go rogue. Cheney is the worst of them all. Find out why and what his history reveals by listening to this vital Ground Zero Lounge.
There is a war brewing. Some will call it world war 3, Clyde Lewis calls it “Weird war 4” a war that will be far darker and apocalyptic than we can even imagine. We are closer now to a world war because loosely defined there needs to be a military conflict spanning more than 2 continents, in which at least 20 major countries participate in an attack against a common enemy. So all we need is Israel to start attacking Palestine, North Korea attacks South Korea or the US, or China invading Taiwan and we will have the Final weird war. Not only that but prophetic insight and the religious warnings from Muslims and Christians dictate that we might be in the first 1290 days of the unstable peace and the indications of the false prophet preparing the way for an Antichrist. Welcome to the Apocalypse where it is business as usual and business is good.
So anyone care to figure out why Barack Obama’s life history is completely off limits to U.S. Citizens? The Left wing news programs tell you that the nosy right wing wants to insist on knowing where Obama was born. They are being called “birthers.” However the media is lying again. Clyde Lewis demonstrates that the birther movement has its roots in the LEFT WING where Clinton supporters hell bent on foiling an Obama White House exposed the “birth certificate” scandal. Still, there is more to the story than just a forged birth certificate. Obama seems to have a “dark father” or a group of “dark fathers” pointing him in the direction of state socialism. Find out the scandalous Obama Family tradition and the Negro tradition that is also in the backgrounds of several Presidents. Obama is not the only Half blood prince that has been in charge of the United States. One drop of blood makes you black? One sperm from many possible candidates gave us the perfect president? The story is full of holes.
NASA is an acronym for NEVER A STRAIGHT ANSWER and once again Clyde Lewis exposes the lies about the LCROSS mission and its hidden agenda for a preplanned military experiment to explode a projectile on the moon. The space race is all a lie. NASA has locked up information on MARS and claims they are ready to go back to the moon. If this is so, then why are many programs being cut dealing with the past moon missions? How is it that missing videos from the first moon landing miraculously return on the anniversary of the first alleged moon landing? The space program is one big lie to cover up the militarization of space and the fueling of the Military industrial complex. WE WILL NEVER GO TO THE MOON! WE WILL NEVER GET A STRAIGHT STORY ABOUT LIFE ON MARS. Dream on.
from guardian: US defence officials are preventing Barack Obama from seeing evidence that a former British resident held in Guantánamo Bay has been tortured, the prisoner's lawyer said last night, as campaigners and the Foreign Office prepared for the man's release in as little as a week. Clive Stafford Smith, the director of the legal charity Reprieve, which represents Ethiopian-born Binyam Mohamed, sent Obama evidence of what he called "truly mediaeval" abuse but substantial parts were blanked out so the president could not read it. In the letter to the president [292kb PDF], Stafford Smith urges him to order the disclosure of the evidence.
from raw replay: Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush told Newsmax correspondent Ashley Martella that Republicans should create “a shadow government” to challenge Democrats. “In Washington we need to show humility and be the loyal opposition. I actually think we need to organize ourselves the form of a shadow government and make it based on policy and not on partisanship,” he said. Bush believes that the Republican Party needed to broaden is appeal and avoid being “the old white-guy party.” “It means recruiting candidates that look like the population we are trying to attract to our cause,” said Bush. Newsmax has more details here. This video is from Newsmax.com, broadcast Dec. 1, 2008.
from paul joseph watson: The world exclusive E. Howard Hunt JFK confession video tape was released this week to a deafening silence from the mainstream media, while the dumbed-down general public attempted to dismiss the now deceased whistleblower Hunt, a former CIA operative and Nixon White House insider, as a mentally unstable drunk... E Howard Hunt’s deathbed confession needs to be treated with the gravity it deserves, it warrants widespread mainstream media attention - especially in the run-up to the 45th anniversary of the JFK assassination this November 22nd.
from billboard: Thievery Corporation's fifth album, "Radio Retaliation," will emerge Sept. 23 on CD via the duo's own ESL Music, with a digital release scheduled for two weeks earlier. That version will include the bonus track "Philosopher's Stone" through Sept. 23. Among the album's guests are world music all-stars Femi Kuti, Seu Jorge, Anushka Shankar and Jana Andevska, as well as Go-Go pioneer Chuck Brown. Group member Rob Garza says the project is a "more overt political statement," with colleague Eric Hilton adding that it's "about an exodus of conscious people who are willing to acknowledge something is wrong with the 'official version' in news and culture."
from washington post: After years of aggressive lobbying by unhappy state governments, the administration chose to restore FEMA's power to coordinate federal disaster operations. That power was undermined in the administration's previous plan - used just once, after Katrina - when the secretary of homeland security appointed his own officer to oversee disaster response. Under the new plan, the head of FEMA will appoint the top coordinating officer, clarifying responsibility and, according to the states, ending confusion that caused critical delays. Congress ordered that change to the plan last year.
from danger room: American military researchers are working to uncover and harness the most terrifying chemical imaginable: that most primal odor, the scent of fear. Pheromones are chemicals released by animals as signals to their own kind: for sex, for territorial marking, and more. They're often detected in the olfactory membranes. But there's more to pheromones than attraction. Many animals have an alarm pheromone which is used to signal danger; aphids, for example, use it to cause their fellow lice to flee. Now, the US Army is trying to track down and harness people's smell of fear. The military has backed a study on the "Identification and Isolation of Human Alarm Pheromones," which "focused on the Preliminary Identification of Steroids of Interest in Human Fear Sweat."
from washington technology: The U.S. Joint Forces Command and Northern Command are planning a series of computer-based disaster drills with four states this year as part of their Noble Resolve 2008 preparedness exercises. The drills are intended to enhance military support during and after natural disasters, accidents and terrorist attacks. The participating states are Indiana, Oregon, Texas and Virginia.
from raw story/blacklisted news: President Bush yesterday issued a national security directive that would, in the event of a catastrophic attack on the federal government, assign the responsibility of running a shadow government to the White House, not the Department of Homeland Security, according to a Washington Post report:
