Recording sex via spy cameras is getting a rise out of people
By Von Helman
The college dormitory is often considered a sacred and hallowed place where ones first real in depth sexual exploits often occur usually in a mix of alcohol and deep self exploration, however was violating this sacred and secret dorm room tradition really what has caused this firestorm of controversy and protest on the school campus where recently two friends secretly recorded their roommate engaged in sex?
While originally considered a practical joke the unintended consequences is that a young man committed suicide after discovering his two friends betrayed his trust and secretly recorded him having sex with another man and putting that video live on the internet. So maybe in part the malicious nature of the alleged perpetrators actions of recording and then posting that video on line for millions to see is what caused the outrage but I think it goes a little deeper than that.
This incident raises some very valid questions and ones that are very complex because where was the line crossed? Was it the fact they secretly recorded him, or was it that this recording was filmed in a college dorm room? Or was that line crossed when the video was sent live out over the internet for millions to view? Or “D”, all of the above?
Is anti-American rhetoric really, well… anti-American?
by Von Helman
Is it just me, or am I the only one hearing more Americans saying; “I love my country, I just don’t like the government that’s running it” Ok maybe some will ask me where the hell I’ve been because these comments have been going on for some time but I ask hasn’t there always been a worldwide discord between citizens and their governments all throughout history?
The USA is no different when it comes to this discord, especially today with all the political division that’s taken place. More Americans (and even foreigners) are proclaiming shame and anger towards the US government with calls for accountability, reform, and even some for revolution.
I can say my personal list of disdain for the US Federal Government and their actions would be so voluminous that it would crash even the largest server, or take so much paper that it would deplete the Pacific Northwest’s abundance of trees. But I also have to admit I have a certain disdain for the apathy that many Americans have. They mill through life thinking somehow, some way, things will get better or someone else will solve their problems, especially after they witness the consequences of their current politicians in DC, regardless of party affiliation, and more so with the current congress, and the clowns running it.
OBAMA'S RECESSION / NO END IN SIGHT
Allen L Roland
This is definitely now Obama's great Recession and his top down decision to bail out Wall Street , at the expense of Main Street, has left millions of Americans in an economic free fall with no real end in sight.
AP reveals that the top-earning 20 percent of Americans ~ those making more than $100,000 each year ~ received 49.4 percent of all income generated in the U.S., compared with the 3.4 percent earned by those below the poverty line, according to newly released census figures. That ratio of 14.5-to-1 was an increase from 13.6 in 2008 and nearly double a low of 7.69 in 1968.
G-D’S LITTLE AIR FORCE
By Gordon Duff
OUR "EVANGELICAL" FUTURE, AIR FORCE ACADEMY “BRAINWASHING CADETS”
Mickey Weinstein and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation have been fighting the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs for a very long time. Weinstein’s group is working to restore normal constitutional rights and practices in a military organization that has been hijacked by Christian Zionists who call themselves “Evangelicals.” The idea is simple. To get into the Academy or to remain there, un-raped, unbeaten, you have to attend regular “bible study” groups and continually mumble prayers.
In 1932, Fox Helped Make Propaganda Films for Hitler
By Webster G. Tarpley, Ph.D.
Observers of the current US election season have noted the prominent role of Rupert Murdoch’s reactionary Fox News Channel, which currently employs GOP and “Tea Party” partisans Sarah Palin, Glen Beck, Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Sean Hannity, and others. Some have alleged that a television network carrying so many potential political candidates and propagandists on its payroll is unprecedented. But there is a precedent for large-scale Fox intervention into a political campaign.
We Are Never Wrong
Peter Chamberlin
We have to stop thinking of the organized effort to control society as a dark conspiracy and learn to see its very existence as a sign of hope. If a small group of evil men can figure-out a way to take control of human fate, then other groups of intelligent men and women with the best intentions should be just as capable of learning how to break their control.
Hope is the commodity that we are most in need of at this time. If we look at the plot to control mankind’s destiny through the lens of “conspiracy,” we feel compelled to surrender to the broken spirit of hopelessness, thinking that our situation is above human resolution. This is the weakness of spirit that compels many to look for outside intervention from a divine or extraterrestrial source, or else from imaginary unions of upright moral men. We will find that no one else will save us. It is a task which we must accomplish for ourselves.
The world is in the unbelievable mess it is in not by accident, but because of an ancient plan. All the money and power in the world cant’ make anything better by themselves, simply because the people with all the power, who control nearly all the money, won’t let things get better until they get what they want. What they want isn’t merely the Asian oil and gas resources; what they want is the entire world.
Obama's Hard Line Neo-Con Agenda
by Stephen Lendman
Straightaway, Obama's promised "change" and "yes we can" became hard line foreign and domestic extremism, betraying his loyal constituency and any hope for kinder, gentler policies. His populist hypocrisy now exposed, voters are losing faith, but most remain mindless about the harm he commits daily, much of it touching them directly.

The Devil's in the Details - Foreclosures
By Numerian Posted by Michael Collins
It seems, therefore, that millions of foreclosures that have occurred in the past two years may be invalid. Investors who were part of the $8,000 tax credit program may not have valid mortgages and may not legally have the right to live in their home. Title insurance companies have stopped accepting mortgage titles from GMAC and other financial firms implicated in this situation. Numerian
