William F. Buckley v Saul Alinsky: ‘Mobilizing the Poor’
Investigators of Globalist Conspiracy, Meet your Mentor, Mr. Norman Dodd. Klaus warns euro pact will lead to full political union. BRUSSELS - Vaclav Klaus, the Czech Republic's famously eurosceptic president renowned across Europe for holding up passage of the Lisbon Treaty for months, has launched an attack against a fresh EU target: the ‘Euro-plus-pact'. Vaclav Klaus held up ratification of the Lisbon Treaty for months (Photo: wikipedia) "The Brussels summit on 25 March was not about anything else but the further integration of Europe towards fiscal ... union," he wrote in an opinion piece in Czech daily newspaper Pravo on Monday, referring to the meeting of EU premiers and presidents where 23 out of the bloc's 27 member states signed up to a pact that aims to boost European competitiveness. "It was a radical reduction of the sovereignty of other EU countries.
" The pact, along with other far-reaching measures endorsed by the summit last Friday, intends to deliver ever closer ‘economic governance' where the economic polices of each member state are co-ordinated centrally and supervised by Brussels.

Majority of American students flunk civics test , Barbara Hollingsworth writes at . Move all liquids and flammables away from the computer before you read this (emphasis added): A groundbreaking multi-year survey of 28,000 students attending 85 U.S. colleges and universities by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute (www.isi.org) found that American institutions of higher learning are not providing students even basic instruction on American history, economics and government — probably not even enough for them to make informed decisions at the ballot box.
Even Ivy Leaguers could not pass a multiple-choice test on America’s foundational principles. Students at Harvard scored highest nationwide, but only managed an average score of 69 percent on the 60-question test – compared to 54 percent on average for seniors and 51 percent for college freshmen. he added. Only 49 percent – less than half of all college students – could correctly identify the three branches of the federal government. . . » Lessons From Wisconsin: No Wonder the Founding Fathers Equated Democracy with Mob Rule - Big Government. Reparations for slavery. Reparations for slavery is the idea that some form of compensatory payment should be made to the descendants of those who have been enslaved by the Atlantic Slave Trade. Demands for reparations[edit] In 2004, Lloyds of London was sued by the descendants of African slaves.
The case was not successful.[2] In Jamaica in 2004, a coalition of Rastafari movement groups argued that European countries formerly involved in the slave trade, especially Britain, should pay 72.5 billion pounds sterling to resettle 500,000 Jamaican Rastafarians in Africa. The claim was rejected by the British government, which said it could not be held accountable for wrongs in past centuries.[3] In 2007, Guyana called for European nations to pay reparations for the slave trade.[4] In 2011, Antigua & Barbuda called for reparations at the United Nations, saying "that segregation and violence against people of African descent had impaired their capacity for advancement as nations, communities and individuals".[5] Progressive Christianity. Progressive Christianity is a form of Christianity which is characterized by a willingness to question tradition, acceptance of human diversity, a strong emphasis on social justice and care for the poor and the oppressed, and environmental stewardship of the Earth.
Progressive Christians have a deep belief in the centrality of the instruction to "love one another" (John 15:17) within the teaching of Jesus Christ.[1] This leads to a focus on promoting values such as compassion, justice, mercy, tolerance, often through political activism. Though prominent, the movement is by no means the only significant movement of progressive thought among Christians (see the 'See also' links below). Origins[edit] The contemporary movement[edit] The ascendancy of Evangelicalism in the US, particularly in its more socially conservative forms, challenged many people in mainline churches.
Examples of statements of contemporary Progressive Christian beliefs include: Seventh-day Adventism[edit] Controversy[edit] Federal Eye - TSA employees can vote on union representation, labor board rules. Posted at 7:12 PM ET, 11/12/2010 By Joe Davidson In a significant victory for federal employee unions, the Federal Labor Relations Authority decided Friday that Transportation Security Administration staffers will be allowed to vote on union representation. The decision clears the way for a campaign by the government's two largest labor organizations, the American Federation of Government Employees and the National Treasury Employees Union, to represent some 50,000 transportation security officers. "It is no secret that the morale of the TSO workforce is terrible as a result of favoritism, a lack of fair and respectful treatment from many managers, poor and unhealthy conditions in some airports, poor training and testing protocols and a poor pay system," said AFGE President John Gage.
"The morale problems are documented by the government's own surveys. TSA employees have already joined both unions, but the workers do not have collective bargaining rights.
Issachar Report: Rules for Radicals Revisited - Mary Miller, Director of Issachar Studies and IDB. To watch the political landscape in America today is to watch a body’s immune system on over-drive; a condition that causes the body to attack itself unto death unless it is brought back under control. Lulled to sleep by relatively easy prosperity, Americans have for decades given up their freedoms piece by piece.
The cries of the watchmen God placed upon the wall in the last four decades have fallen mostly upon a deaf population—until the election of Barack Hussein Obama. With lightning speed, Americans have been thrust back in time with a “Hope and Change” philosophy that came to life in Saul Alinsky’s 1971 primer, Rules for Radicals: A Pragmatic Primer for Realistic Radicals. One only has to read the book’s opening credits to under-stand the spiritual nature of the battle plan laid out in Alinsky’s mind and soul. Establishing the Seeds of Doubt Visually, on one page, Alinsky walks through a process that his primer strives to complete with re-education: 3) Acceptance of a new savior.
Manifest Destiny. In the 19th century, Manifest Destiny was the widely held belief in the United States that American settlers were destined to expand throughout the continent. Historians have for the most part agreed that there are three basic themes to Manifest Destiny: The special virtues of the American people and their institutions;America's mission to redeem and remake the west in the image of agrarian America;An irresistible destiny to accomplish this essential duty.[1] Historian Frederick Merk says this concept was born out of "A sense of mission to redeem the Old World by high example [...] generated by the potentialities of a new earth for building a new heaven".[2] Merk concludes: From the outset Manifest Destiny—vast in program, in its sense of continentalism—was slight in support.
Context[edit] Manifest Destiny was always a general circular notion rather than a specific policy. Yet Jackson would not be the only president to elaborate on the principles underlying manifest destiny. John L. Klein: Oops! ‘JournoList’ member admitted media bias in 2008. Conceded fellow reporters abandoned Hillary, ‘threw their support’ to Obama. American Thinker: Progressivism and the Dissolution of Boundaries. The genie is out of the bottle, and has been for some time. Unfortunately, this genie has bestowed more curses than gifts upon mankind. The genie I am referring to goes by many names: liberalism, progressivism, idealism, secularism -- call it what you will, but the end game has been the degradation of morality, the trampling of traditional values, the destruction of the nuclear family, and the annihilation of our economy.
In its place we have apathetic youth, abortion on demand, scientific historicism, Social Darwinism, voter disenfranchisement, and financial chicanery. The genesis of all these issues is the same: the unrelenting erosion of boundaries that traditional mores placed on individuals, families, and communities. You can see this trend everywhere you look nowadays.

Topic category: Government/Politics Great! Glenn "Better Late than Never" Beck Finally Sees Liberation Theology For What It Is The good news is that Fox News host Glenn Beck's July 13, 2010 focused on how "progressives" shamelessly misuse theology for their radical political purposes. The bad news is that it took him so long. The truth was there years ago, but it was a place where the liberal media establishment would not go and others either did not dare or did not know.

You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.The fourth rule carries within it the fifth rule: Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage. - Saul Alinsky; Rules for Radicals; 1971; p. 128 Now, I'm not certain whether Bill O'Reilly is pulling our leg here, as he ruminates over whether the politics of ridicule being employed nearly nonstop by our new President's administration is intentional or not. Nevertheless, I've been working for the past year on solid methods to defeat this politics of ridicule - the tactics advocated by Saul Alinsky to every 60s radical that ever burned a draft card or a bra, or vowed to smash monogamy or made a nail bomb.
