In 1933 corporate America attempted to implement a coup against the US Government with plans to install a right-wing fascist dictatorship. One of the players in this treason was Prescott Bush, Georgie's grandaddy among other so called captains of industry, whom I refer to as traitors. This coup was thwarted due to the efforts of General Smedley Butler whom corporate america tried to draw into their conspiracy. Unlike the business sector of America, General Butler believed in democracy, he believed in the principles that America was founded upon and it is thanks to him that this coup didn't take place in 1933.

From my observations however of how America has changed since the first attempted coup I have posed for several years that this didn't end the corporate attempt to take over America, that it merely forced them to go underground and use more deceptive, furtive techniques over time to steal the nation from the people and complete for the most part what they tried in 1933.

A new Gallup poll shows that US Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton is the most popular US candidate for president among Jewish voters.

While Hillary Clinton fights on, the tide appears to be inexorably turning in favour of the frontrunner

US Dem. candidate Barack Obama has raised the possibility of helping Democratic rival Hillary Clinton pay off more than $25 million in debt.

The rumour has resurfaced – perhaps inevitably, but this time stronger than ever: could the long and bitter battle for the Democratic nomination end in what many see as the perfect answer – Barack Obama united with the all-but-vanquished Hillary Clinton on a "dream ticket" for the White House?

As soon as the Texas sun starts going down this evening, Jenna Bush will become the first presidential child in decades to get married during her father's term. "We will be laughing, weeping, hollering," predicts George Bush. "It's going to be a great time."

Republican candidate faces renewed scrutiny of his ties to business people and lobbyists

Democratic ex-presidential hopeful John Edwards says Barack Obama is now his party's likely nominee.

Hillary Clinton clumsily raised the issue of race Thursday in the Democratic primary, while Barack Obama deftly raised the roof over the halls of Congress.

Clinton defended her words as a common-sense analysis of exit poll data.

But some of her supporters - including Rep. Charles Rangel (D-Manhattan) - slammed the comments.

"I can't believe Sen. Clinton would say anything that dumb," Rangel told The News as he headed to the House floor, where earlier he had embraced Obama.

"If the people were to ever find out what we have done, we would be chased down the streets and lynched."

-- George Bush, cited in the June, 1992 Sarah McClendon Newsletter

Contributing Editor Catherine Austin Fitts, who was a Managing Director at Dillon Read before becoming Assistant Secretary of Housing under George Bush and who holds an MBA from Wharton makes things very simple. She points out that the four largest states for the importation of drugs are New York, Florida, Texas and California. She then points out that the top four money laundering states in the U.S. (good for between 100 and 260 billion per year) are New York, Florida, Texas and California. No surprise there. Then she rips the breath from your lungs by pointing out that 80 per cent of all Presidential campaign funds come from - New York, Florida, Texas and California.

Faced with a mathematical mountain climb that even Stephen Hawking could not ascend, the Clintons -- and it is indeed both of them -- are just about to paste a bumper sticker on the rear of the collapsing vehicle that carries her campaign. It reads: VOTE WHITE.

" ...Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."

Look the problem is not so much her acknowledgment of her support among whites of lower socioeconomic status, which is true to some degree if not somewhat tacky to bring up the way she did. It's her characterization of "WORKING, HARD WORKING AMERICANS,WHITE AMERICANS." The inference is obvious: that only white Americans are hard working (as only hard working Americans are working). In other words this is straight up Trent Lott at a Strom Thurmond party shit. I'm sure she's going to come out and say she misspoke. Whatever. She was clearly trying to walk on the fence of acceptable racial pandering and wound up taking a BIG misstep over. The Clinton's just seem completely hellbent at this point of screwing up their legacy and nothing more. Shouldn't someone talk them, down from the edge of the bridge?

Democratic White House contender Barack Obama says the US would be fully committed to Israel's security if he is elected president.

Where would Obama stand when the commitments to the constitution and the interests of the US people conflict with Israel's security and prosperity ?

Senator Barack Obama suggests that John McCain's smear campaign against him over remarks by Hamas proves the Republican to be confused.

Apart from George McGovern, a plainspoken man who knows something about losing elections, not a single Democrat of national stature publicly urged Hillary Rodham Clinton on Wednesday to end her campaign for the White House.

They didn't have to.

Clinton shows no sign that she is willing to bow out quietly

A leading American professor of international law has voiced readiness to represent Iran in an international court on Israeli crimes.

"I am ready to represent Iran in an international tribunal for trying the Zionist regime on charges of genocide of Palestinians and the blockade in the Gaza Strip," Francis Boyle, professor of law at the University of Illinois, told Fars News Agency.

According to the news agency, Boyle demanded his proposal to be submitted to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Professor Boyle accuses Israel of committing 'Nuremberg offenses' against the Palestinians.

Boyle has recently been calling for the impeachment of US President George W. Bush.

Boyle is author of Palestine, Palestinians and International Law, The Criminality of Nuclear Deterrence, Defending Civil Resistance Under International Law, The Future of International Law and American Foreign Policy, Foundations of World Order: The Legalist Approach to International Relations 1898-1921, and The Bosnian People Charge Genocide.

Clinton insists she intends to fight on, in spite of the arithmetic being against her and severe funding problems

Indiana and North Carolina led to discussions about how and when the Democrats would put the divisions behind them

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says 'threatening people and countries' is not the American way to deal with international issues.

Support for presidential rivals Obama and Clinton by their fellow Democrats in the Congress is just about split and may become pivotal.

A summer gas-tax holiday proposed by Dem. candidate Hillary Clinton and Rep. nominee John McCain lacks the crucial support of Congress.

Democrat Barack Obama beats Hillary Clinton in the contest for wining the party's nomination on the Pacific island of Guam by just seven votes.

I'm shocked and have decided to go with Obama.

Imagine Hillary Clinton's luck.

When she needed to win a primary in New Hampshire, the machines glitched up, and she emerged with an unexpected margin of victory. Whether it was due to electronic voting breakdowns is not clear. But there was never a a full recount or a thorough investigation of the serious problems that plagued the vote count in that state.

When she needed a victory in Ohio, Republican voters -- urged on by Rush Limbaugh -- crossed over in droves and helped give her one. Cross-over voting may also have been a factor in her critical victory in Pennsylvania. There were also numerous instances of computer tabulation glitches in the Pennsylvania secretary of state's office.

Now the Indiana primary looms ahead. Less than a week prior, the US Supreme Court has delivered a devastating decision on voter ID that could again make a big difference in Clinton's favor.

The Hillary Clinton campaign is dealing with a quickly exploding controversy. WSBT News has received dozens of emails about a YouTube video that shows a high level Clinton campaign advisor allegedly making degrading remarks about people from Indiana.

In the video from 1992, Mickey Kantor, who was an advisor to former President Bill Clinton’s 1992 campaign and the commerce secretary when Clinton was president, says it doesn’t matter whether Clinton wins Indiana. He then appears to make comments about Hoosiers at large.

Those Democrats are always stretching the truth about themselves. How else to explain Barack Obama appearing on network television to reveal he has not "slept since October". Come on senator, we know the campaign trail is gruelling but still.

Former Democratic National Committee Chairman Joe Andrew has reconsidered his endorsement of Hillary Clinton favoring Barack Obama.

In a lengthy letter Andrew explained why he switched his allegiance to Barack Obama saying "a vote for Hillary Clinton is a vote to continue this process, and a vote to continue this process is a vote that assists (Republican) John McCain."

Obama now leads in the delegate count overall 1736.5 to 1602.5 for Clinton. A candidate needs 2,025 delegates to win the nomination.

The US Supreme Court has just dealt a serious blow to voters' rights that could help put John McCain in the White House by eliminating tens of thousands of voters who generally vote Democratic.

By 6-3 the Court has upheld an Indiana law that requires citizens to present a photo identification card in order to vote.

The decision turns back two centuries of jurisprudence that has accepted a registered voter's signature as sufficient identification for casting a ballot.

Voting rights activists have long argued that since photo ID can cost money, or may demand expensive trips to government agencies, the requirement constitutes a "poll tax." Taxes on the right to vote were used for a century to prevent blacks and others from voting in the south and elsewhere. They were specifically banned by the 24th Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in 1964.

US Supreme Court has issued a law requiring voters to present a photo identification card dealing a serious blow to voters' rights.

Judicial Watch asks federal election commission to investigate London fundraiser

Yes.

US Democratic Party chief Howard Dean says either Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton must end their presidential campaign in June.

Barak Obama is to make a drastic change in his campaign style by directly addressing the voters' economic concerns in Indiana.

Judging from the campaign rhetoric coming out of both camps, whoever wins the Oval Office will be inclined to continue the failed military policies in Iraq and to pursue a confrontation with Iran. Apparently it does not matter to either party what will follow those actions, or what these disastrous policies have produced as they played-out in Iraq and Afghanistan. It does not matter who gets elected, whether it is “bomb, bomb Iran” McCain, or “obliterate/massive retaliation” Clinton, nothing will change.

It is no coincidence that the nations that have been targeted are all enemies of Israel. Neither is it a coincidence that Israel has been the source of the “evidence” (much of it fabricated) that has been used, and is still being used, to authorize the war resolutions.

Former US Clinton administration official Tony Lake has said Dem. candidate Barack Obama is uniquely qualified to be commander in chief.

US President George W. Bush has poked fun at his potential successors at the White House Correspondents' Association annual dinner.

Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has again taken a sarcastic tone talking about the US President George W. Bush during her campaign.

Democratic Congressman Jim Clyburn has criticized presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton's campaign for 'demonizing' rival Barack Obama.

Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has proposed that she and opponent Barack Obama talk in the absence of a moderator.

The Pentagon has temporarily stopped feeding information to pundits who generate 'favorable' war coverage for the Bush administration.

According to The New York Times, the Defense Department had been giving information to retired military officers serving as pundits for various media organizations in a bid to garner favorable media coverage of the White House wartime performance.

"Analysts have been wooed in hundreds of private briefings with senior military leaders, including officials with significant influence over contracting and budget matters, records show," the Times article read.

In return, they echoed President Bush's talking points, 'sometimes even when they suspected the information was false or inflated'.

"Following the allegations, the story that is printed in the New York Times, I directed my staff to halt, to suspend the activities that may be ongoing with retired military analysts to give me time to review the situation," said Principal deputy assistant secretary of Defense for public affairs Robert Hastings in an interview with Stripes.

While mainstream US media has chosen to ignore the newfound information, the revelation has caused widespread anger among some high ranking US officials

"There is nothing inherently wrong with providing information to the public and the press," Democratic US congressional representative Ike Skelton said.

"But there is a problem if the Pentagon is providing special access to retired officers and then basically using them as pawns to spout the administration's talking points of the day," continued the chairman of the House Armed Services Committee.

Former US president Bill Clinton has been involved in a new race flap after accusing Barack Obama of 'playing the race card on' him.

"I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran," Clinton said. "In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them."

Democratic White House hopeful Hillary Clinton says in case she becomes the next US president she would support Israel against Iran.
