I have come to the realization by what has been said on this site by various people, that there is something fishy in Denmark! LOL..... But most definitly something is very fishy and I believe we have to be careful who we corespond with on this site. To answer your question Jeff, yes i do believe people on this site do want to make a difference. Because this site is for people who do want to make a difference and we are all like minded and our hearts are in the right places because we do love this country, we do love our freedoms, we do love one another because we are Americans.... And that is what this site was intended to do was to bring like minded people together in unity so as we can all put our heads and our hearts together and subport one another with the values we do have as American.Yes, we are here because we do care. And we do want to make things better. But from what I can gather from only being on here really just a short time, Is there are others who are here who would like to cause divisions, amongst our conversation, cause confusion. There is an old saying which I have hears for years and that is "to divide and conquer". We are all aware of what is going on with this leftist progressive agenda, and what they are try to do to our country and just all the craziness that is going on with everything it seems, No suprise to me that they are even having people come onto our site to cause, problems, division, confusion etc...... So lets all be very careful who we are talking with and if it is not out of Love, compassion and unity with like minded folks who love this country , lets just abstane from any kind of talk, Lets just don't go there with others who may want to just cause division. Remember we are Americans and we love our God given Country and our freedoms, and we love our fellow Americans. Lets just all try to do our best in making things better.. The powers that be would love to see us divided, if they can cause more caos, that allows them more control.... They are of evil, so they want to cause more evil, for their evil agenda....Lets be patient and kind to one another, espeacialy on this site. Lets love one another and do what we can to make this site a good one.....

I am amazed at the direction of every discussion group on this forum. Some of them seem to start out heading down a path of usefulness and "how can I help" attitudes, but the more I read through the responses to the discussions I notice a switch from the desire to help to a appeasing the trolls.
I have a lot to offer on this site. But, I guess it is of no benefit to those who watch mainstream megaliars each night during dinner. When I quit watching network TV over 25 years ago I did actually do things! I studied. I noticed long ago what kind of great tool we have in the internet. If anyone has a question they should immediately run to the internet to find answers.
I have been trying to find someone to have an intelligent conversation with. I go from site to site sharing some of the truth I have been fortunate enough to learn throughout my life. I am quite amazed that when someone can't "outsmart me" or prove a point that is not a point at all they will just shut me off. That is fine. I sure wish I could have that intelligent conversation some day! There is NO "OUTSMARTING" when it comes to saving our country. If I were you all and noticed that there is someone that actually might know what they are talking about, I would be asking questions, instead of playing stupid games with the trolls.
You all just keep watching your mainstream megaliars every night and see where that gets you, TaTa the same place you have been forever!
I really don't mean to be offensive to anyone, but I am so surprised at the direction of every conversation in this forum. They all seem to start out intelligent, until the trolls jump aboard then everyone plays along with the nonsense to the lose of the real truth which I try to share.
I wish I could have an intelligent conversation.

The Internet Sales Tax.   Nothing illustrates the ravenous nature of BigGov and its insatiable desire to destroy even the smallest extant vestiges of Free Enterprise in America than the effort underway to pull millions of small businesses into their net of taxation.  While the support this legislation is getting on Capitol Hill from Democrats is no particular eye-opener, it is the support from Republicans that should alert us to the hypocritical tendencies of that party.  

In one breath, they pander to us about smaller government and cutting spending and taxes – but when they think our backs are turned, they make a different pledge to special interests.  “There’s a lot of political difficulty getting through the fog of it looking like a tax increase,” said Rep. Steve Womack, R-Ark., one of the main sponsors of the bill in the House.  Well, Mr. Womack – the ‘political difficulty’ stems from the fact that the Internet Sales Tax not only looks like a tax increase, it is a tax increase!

This is really starting to sound like there is much more behind this than "Classified Documents" It is sounding more like looking to see who can and can not be trusted based on whatever one wants.

DOJ seized phone records for Fox News numbers, reporter's parents

Newly uncovered court documents reveal the Justice Department seized records of several Fox News phone lines as part of a leak investigation -- even listing a number that, according to one source, matches the home phone number of a reporter's parents.
The seizure was ordered in addition to a court-approved search warrant for Fox News correspondent James Rosen's personal emails. In the affidavit seeking that warrant, an FBI agent called Rosen a likely criminal "co-conspirator," citing a wartime law called the Espionage Act.
Rosen was not charged, but his movements and conversations were tracked. A source close to the leak investigation confirmed to Fox News that the government obtained phone records for several numbers that match Fox News numbers out of the Washington bureau.
Further, the source confirmed to Fox News that one number listed matched the number for Rosen's parents in Staten Island.
Rosen's father, Myron Rosen, told FoxNews.com he found the records seizure to be "downright ludicrous."
"My son and his wife call us all the time, and we talk about grandchildren," he said. "We don't talk about nuclear proliferation."
He continued: "The fact that they had our phone records, it shows how crazy they are, how desperate."
Asked about the documents, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told Fox News he "can't comment on an ongoing criminal investigation."
The documents filed in October 2011 appear to show exchanges that match the specific locations of Fox News' White House, Pentagon, State Department and other operations. The last four digits of each of the phone numbers listed are redacted in the government filing.
Among the numbers listed were several that start with the area code and exchange, 202-824 -- which is an area code and exchange for the Fox News Washington bureau.
The phone information was included in a long list of numbers, email addresses and other details that prosecutors shared with defense attorneys shortly after the alleged leaker was indicted. The document said the government had already obtained a trove of material from the defendant, Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, including his passport applications, State Department badge records, emails, computer and hard drive.
Click to read the documents.
The case is being prosecuted by U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Ronald Machen Jr.
Meanwhile, the White House Correspondents' Association spoke out on incidents involving two news organizations. The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of phone records from the Associated Press and obtained a search warrant for the personal emails of Fox News' James Rosen. The information about the phone records was uncovered Tuesday.
In the latter case, an FBI agent also claimed in an affidavit that Rosen was possibly a criminal "co-conspirator."
Though no charges were brought against Rosen, the White House Correspondents' Association said no journalist should even face that threat for doing their job.
"Reporters should never be threatened with prosecution for the simple act of doing their jobs," the WHCA said in a statement Tuesday. "The problem is that in two recent cases, one involving Fox News' James Rosen and the other focused on the Associated Press, serious questions have been raised about whether our government has gotten far too aggressive in its monitoring of reporters' movements, phone records, and even personal email."
The statement went on: "We do not know all of the facts in these cases, so we will just say this in general: Our country was founded on the principle of freedom of the press and nothing is more sacred to our profession. So we stand in strong solidarity with our colleagues who have been scrutinized. And in terms of the administration, ultimately what will matter more in all of these cases is action not words."
Earlier, Carney said President Obama believes reporters shouldn't be prosecuted for doing their jobs. The association said it agreed.
The WHCA's board is led by Fox News' Ed Henry.
The statement comes after court documents showed the Justice Department obtained a portfolio of information about Rosen's conversations and visits to the State Department. This included a search warrant for his personal emails.
In an affidavit, an FBI agent claimed there's evidence the Fox News correspondent broke the law, "at the very least, either as an aider, abettor and/or co-conspirator."
Michael Clemente, Fox News' executive vice president of news, defended Rosen in a statement issued Monday afternoon.
"We are outraged to learn today that James Rosen was named a criminal co-conspirator for simply doing his job as a reporter," Clemente said. "In fact, it is downright chilling. We will unequivocally defend his right to operate as a member of what up until now has always been a free press."
In the case involving Rosen, a government adviser was accused of leaking information after a 2009 story was published online which said North Korea planned to respond to looming U.N. sanctions with another nuclear test.
Rosen said Monday that "as a reporter, I always honor the confidentiality of my dealings with all of my sources."
The Department of Justice said in a statement that "leaks of classified information to the press can pose a serious risk of harm to our national security and it is important that we pursue these matters using appropriate law enforcement tools."
The U.S. attorney's office for the District of Columbia also said the government, before seeking approval for the search warrant, "exhausted all reasonable non-media alternatives for collecting this evidence."

Reactive Patriotism

The real canvas reveals that the solution to America’s problems will not be fixed with a march, a rally, or with bullets!

My friends, I do not share this message to be unkind. I share it because this is what time it is. This is our situation!

And the unfortunate truth of this matter is that a civil war of words is going to become a civil war of action. When this thing happens, it is going to change everything.

This is what the powers of darkness want. They want a civil war.

Right now, the despondency of American citizens is growing. The US Government is creating continual policies that impose, oppress and bully.

In the natural, this is a recipe for disaster. This is a recipe that is causing anger to incubate in the hearts of many American citizens.

Unfortunately, the temptation will GROW among some citizens to do something drastic! Eventually, at some point, there are going to be some radical patriot types that are going to say, “We’re going for broke.”
Regarding the july 4th march on washington!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pla...
Regarding this march, I do not know if this one is related to what God showed me, but I find the rhetoric very disturbing. At 9:00 minutes into the interview, Kokesh makes statements like:
"...we will stand up to their unjust authority in whatever ways we see fit..."
At 10:20 he says:
"...We will use physical force when necessary and when appropiate..."
At 11:00 he says:
"...When we march on D.C., liberty will be restored...!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since Alex interviewed Adam Kokesh on May 6, he has now decided that he is going to join in the march on July 4, 2013

This excerpt taken from a large article.

Does anyone know of a good means to acquire the links of the current administrator's management hierarchy?

With the recent scandal of the IRS, they simply pushed Susan Rice to be promoted to the division of Obamacare, within the IRS.

I think it would be good to create each person of interest and link them in their respective roles, within this administration.

This can then be expanded to profile each activities in their respected groups. I suspect the same names will begin appearing, but at least we will have a visual and working document to go to (when we start inquiring specific questions) to our Representives.

Thoughts?

Is NPR now turning on Obama?

Why the IRS Cannot Be Reformed
By Richard W. Rahn

This article appeared in Washington Times on May 21, 2013.
Every few years, at least from the time of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, there is a scandal involving abuse of power at the Internal Revenue Service. We are again in the midst of one of these periodic abuse scandals, with many solemn promises that the problems will be corrected and will not happen again. As always, the rhetoric is far from the reality for two basic reasons. The first is the nature of the income tax, which, by definition, is subjective in its interpretation of the definition of “income” and thus subject to abuse. The second is the type of person that the IRS attracts as an employee.

“
Imprecise tax laws leave room for agency abuse and corruption.”
A substantial (and ever-growing) portion of the income-tax code and IRS regulations are devoted to trying to define income. This may seem simple, but consider a business that operates in numerous states and countries and has many product lines. Beginning accounting students learn that business profit or income is equal to net revenue minus expenses. Yet, it is almost impossible to precisely define what is and is not a legitimate expense. What is the proper rate of depreciation for each and every item the business uses? How should a company allocate business revenue and expenses among many taxing jurisdictions? Different countries, states and localities often have conflicting standards, definitions and laws. The never-ending definitional problems provide full employment for tax lawyers and accountants, and they create a costly burden on businesses. These costs are passed along in lower wages for workers and higher prices for consumers.

Economic income is defined differently than taxable income. As a result, most companies are required by law to keep a separate set of books to comply both with Securities and Exchange Commission regulations and IRS regulations — and often other sets of books to comply with the regulations of foreign countries.

The IRS is inconsistent, even with individuals, in definitions of income. In some cases, adjustments are made for inflation, but not in other cases. For instance, with capital gains and interest, the IRS charges tax on the purely inflation portion, which is not income by any reasonable economic or common understanding of the word. In so doing, the agency is corrupt in the Orwellian sense. When the federal government’s General Services Administration or the IRS takes a number of its employees to Las Vegas for a conference, is this a taxable benefit (income) or not? The answer is this case is “no” because this is the type of benefit the political class enjoys. The questions are never-ending — e.g., sometimes parking fees are deductible and sometimes not, some charities are deductible and some are not — and hence, the opportunities for corruption and political bias are endless. Most of these questions will not go away with “tax reform” because they are inherent in an income-tax system.

The second reason that the IRS cannot be reformed is the type of individual who chooses to work for the agency. Some people have a passion to educate, so they become schoolteachers. Others have a passion to help people in trouble, so they become emergency first responders, doctors or other medical workers. Others want to help defend the country, so they join the military. Others want to design and build buildings, or just make money, so they become businessmen and quickly learn that the best way to make money is to provide goods and services that others need or desire. This is the beauty of the capitalistic system. It is win-win, because those who can provide the most-desired goods and services at the best price can make the most money over the long run — by creating the most amount of happiness for their fellow man.

By contrast, the IRS is feared, loathed and resented. Thus, the IRS tends to attract all too many workers who are insensitive to the needs and problems of others, and some even enjoy being bullies. The tax code is so complex that no individual can understand it, including those who work for the IRS. That does not keep those who work there, though, from threatening everyone else for not understanding what they themselves do not understand. Many seem totally ignorant of the protections afforded by the U.S. Constitution and the American ideal of a civil society. The type of arrogant, mean-spirited, aggressive, biased and hypocritical incompetence by many IRS employees that has been revealed in the congressional hearings and other investigations would not be tolerated in most organizations.

Taxes are the necessary price for a civil society, but obtaining the revenue to operate the legitimate functions of government does not require an intrusive, destructive and easy-to-abuse income tax. A number of states and some foreign countries get along perfectly well without an income tax.

IRS misbehavior and abuse will not cease for the aforementioned reasons until the income tax is abolished. Moving to a flat tax would lessen the problem, but the potential for abuse will still occur. The long-term solution is to move to a system of user fees and consumption-based taxes, in which the opportunities for bias and abuse are minimized.
