The following video is not a spoof, it is a real news report, based on real events, about real decisions, made by real progressives.
What was alarming to me as I watch this video was the discussion being from educators, the so-called smart people in any society.
How many corners (right angles) on a square?
How many corners (right angles) on a Triangle?
Think about it……
Cairo: Egypt’s prosecutor general on Monday ordered the arrest of five prominent political activists accused of inciting violence against President Mohamed Mursi’s Muslim Brotherhood, a step the opposition decried as a reversal for democracy.
The move seemed certain to deepen mistrust in an already polarised political landscape, further complicating Mursi’s efforts to build bridges with his opponents before parliamentary polls the opposition has threatened to boycott.
Those ordered arrested included Ahmed Douma and Alaa Abd El-Fattah, a leading blogger who became a symbol of the uprising that overthrew President Hosni Mubarak in 2011. Also ordered arrested were Karim al-Shaer, Hazem Abdel Azeem and Ahmed al-Sahafi. (more…)
(CNN) – If you think Paris is expensive, the City of Light costs a lot more when you’re traveling with the vice president. Recent documents posted to a government website give a rare glimpse of Vice President Joe Biden’s overseas travel expenses.
Official business took him last month to Europe, a trip that included a bill of $585,000 for his one-night stay in Paris.
Also on the receipt was $321,665 for a limousine company and $459,338.65 for a hotel stay in London.
And while Biden was only in each town for one night, the London hotel bill, for example, included 136 rooms for multiple nights for his advance team, according to the documents posted on the website for Federal Business Opportunities and unearthed by the conservative magazine, The Weekly Standard.

A while ago, around the time we were contemplating “Password Protected Posts for ongoing research sharing”, and during an email exchange with DiwataMan, he posed the question: (paraphrased)
“how do you know the integrity of the person you may or may not give the password to – that they would not divulge sensitive information“?
Indeed, it has been a challenge to discover the “intents” of many people following this case – because, as you are probably aware, many of the Scheme Team players embedded into the Treehouse commenting community. They hid their agenda and operated a psy-ops campaign to discover information, that information was then transmitted to the prosecution team, the BGI and the concentric circles around the DOJ.

(via WeaselZippers) DAILY CALLER – An unemployed illegal immigrant who has spent the last few years playing video games reportedly used records of his playing time to apply for and receive President Obama’s “deferred action” status.
According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, Jose Muñoz was an out-of-work 25-year-old Mexican immigrant who graduated with honors from his Sheboygan, Wisconsin high school in 2005.
Since that time, Muñoz — who was brought to the United States at the age of one — has been out of school and out of work, instead spending time helping his family with household chores and countless hours playing sports video games on his Xbox.
WASHINGTON DC – President Barack Obama on Monday called for lawmakers in Washington to muster the “political courage” to pass comprehensive immigration reform that he can sign into law “as soon as possible.”
“We are making progress but we’ve got to finish the job,” Obama said at a naturalization ceremony for 28 new Americans at the White House.
The White House has offered support to the efforts of bipartisan lawmakers on Capitol Hill who have been working behind closed doors to craft reform legislation. (more…)
Today in the State of Florida VS. George Zimmerman case (Trayvon Martin shooting) the defense counsel Mark O’Mara has provided the court with a motion to Sanction the Prosecutorial Team [The State of Florida]. pdf available here
Specifically O’Mara is outlining to the court how Witness #8, “DeeDee”, Trayvon’s reported girlfriend, had lied in her sworn statements and how the State of Florida, Bernie De La Rionda, had known about her lies since August 2nd 2012, and yet never divulged that factual knowledge to the court or defense team in discovery.
O’Mara is asking for punitive sanctions, fines and legal reimbursement, against the State of Florida for their complicit and intentional hiding of pertinent discovery.
The motion cites the specific examples of how the lies were created, why the lies were told, and how the State of Florida was told about the lying by the witness herself. (more…)
We are currently awaiting some very substantive, researched, background and proprietary information, regarding the events which surround the shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman.
However, in advance of the information it is perhaps important to revisit the substance of our position from the outset of initial interest in this case; And, more importantly, discuss two specific principles which have caused some readers to erroneously reconcile information gleaned from the spotlight of our research: Projection and Transference:
Projection – where a person subconsciously denies his or her own negative attributes by ascribing them to objects or persons in the outside world instead; or a person affirms their own positive attributes by ascribing positive intent toward the behavior of another.
Thus, projection involves projecting faults or attributes of altruism onto others.
Projection can also be established as a means of justifying a person bearing witness to certain actions that would normally be considered intolerable.
This often means projecting false altruism toward an individual for the sole purpose of maintaining a self-created illusion.
One of the many problems with this process whereby ‘something dangerous that is observed can be justified’, or shifted, from actual expressed intent into a false belief of assigned honesty – ergo a process of “projection”‘ – Danger lies in the approach because as a result the projector may become somewhat cognitively depleted and rendered limp in objectivity.

EGYPT – Egyptian President Mohammed Mursi warned Sunday of taking unspecified measures to “protect the nation” following violent clashes two days earlier between opposition demonstrators and Muslim Brotherhood supporters in Cairo.
“I am president of all Egyptians and I will not allow anyone to tamper with the nation,” President Mursi said in statement posted on Twitter, adding:
“If I am obliged to do what is necessary to protect this nation, I will do, and I fear I am about to do that.”
