I cant help but wonder where all the liberal 60's activists have gone? These people are a huge part of Obama's base. They protested vehemently against Vietnam, against Bush, and Iraq. Yet barely a peep is heard as Obama's warmongering is reaching levels Bush and Cheney could only dream of while spooning each other on piles of tax payer money in the back of a Goldman Sachs vault. With 30,000 more young men and women headed to Afghanistan "to kill or be killed" (a quote from Obama's peace prize speech), conducting around the clock Predator Drone bombings in Pakistan, making plans to bomb people in Yemen in retaliation to the "underwear bomber". We are told that the troop levels in Iraq are beginning to lower but what the media forgets to tell us is that the use of private contractors such as Xe, a.k.a. Blackwater, has risen 60% under Obama's reign. Where are those activists? Did we all vote for this? I voted for Obama,I was lied to as were we all.I found this picture of what appears to be a dangerous terrorist that hates your freedom and wants to kill you. Good thing they got her before she got you..... Here is the story behind the pic:
KANDAHAR, AFGHANISTAN - OCTOBER 13: (EDITORS NOTE: Image contains graphic content.) Asan Bibi, 9, sits in the bathtub while being washed in the women's ward of the Mirwais hospital October 13, 2009 in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Asan Bibi, her sister and mother were badly burned when a helicopter fired into their tent in the middle of the night on October 3rd, according to their father. Three members of the family were killed in the incident. The family belongs to the Kuchi ethnic tribe, nomads living in tents out in the open desert whom are very vulnerable to a war they have little understanding of.
This vid is brought to you hijackednation, his vids are some of the best Ive seen mixing info and emotion. I feel this combination is important for getting a message across. The emotion makes the information real. Here is hijackednations explanation of his vid, PLEASE WATCH!
"Afghanistan pipeline insight. Crap the mainstream media doesn't really shed that much light on if any. Learn something. Also, check out John Foster he's the petro economist I used as the star of this vid . The little things the Orwellian zombietards pay no mind to. Also, opium plays a part of this as well. Last estimation was Afghanistan produces 70 billion annually in opium this is another topic unto itself that 11 minutes cannot justify .. The pipeline issue makes the most sense for our presence in Afghanistan" ...
According to the Tax Foundation, taxes now consume more than 38% of the average family's budget. That is more than is spent on food, clothing, housing, and transportation combined. Compare this to the plight of medieval serfs. They only had to give the lord of the manor one-third of their output -- and they were considered slaves. So what does that make us? – Daniel Mitchell, The Washington Times, 3/9/99

ReplyDeleteThat's a very disturbing statistic,especially because its 10 years old! With national health care being shoved down our throats, a purposed "warfund" tax, and the "value added" taxes, Id like to know what the percentage is now.
The comparison to medieval serfs is right on target. Forget socialism,fascism,communism, I believe it to be a form of feudalism. Like the medieval serfs living in the shadows of Rome's Colosseum and aqueducts. I fear we to may be living in those shadows very soon.
