“Isn’t it ironic that we have a phony President of the United States complaining about the “phony scandals” he claims were created by those who dare to oppose him and his dictatorial regime?” –MichaelConnelly
"The reality is there is much more to see than initially meets the eye. When I refer to Obama as a phony President I am not just talking about the many unanswered questions about this man’s background. We know less about him than any other President in recent history, and he appears to lie about things even when he is aware that most people know he is lying. However, he is a phony President primarily because he took an oath of office to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution and is doing exactly the opposite.
Regardless of where he was born, Obama is not an American because he does not believe in our Constitutional form of government, our free enterprise system, or even the basic freedoms guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. He routinely takes actions that are contrary to the authority given to him as President of the United States." . . . Read More

2. Another Rogue Government Agency Revealed
"The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is funneling data from “from intelligence intercepts, wiretaps, informants and a massive database of telephone records” to jurisdictions across the country on anyone and everyone, unconstitutionally, to help federal, state and local authorities open domestic cases." -PoliticalOutcast
"The unit responsible for this outrage is called the Special Operations Division, referred to as SOD. According to Reuters, SOD’s members have been gleaned from over two dozen “partner” agencies which include the FBI, CIA, NSA, Internal Revenue Service, and the Department of Homeland Security. SOD has an annual budget estimated at $125 million with hundreds of employees. SOD’s work is classified, and even its physical location, somewhere in Virginia, is clandestine.
The SOD documents present evidence that 'law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations truly begin — not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges.'” . . . Read More

3. America’s Third Party: ‘Meet The Wobblies Family’
"Failed presidential candidate Mitt Romney has the epidemic disease that is taking out many, if not most, politicians of the day: A bad case of the ‘Wobblies’." -CanadaFreePress
"‘Wobblies’ is the disease that keeps eating away until it destroys whole wobbly politicoes. There’s ‘Weepy Wobbly’ House Speaker John Boehner and his gang of vacationing Republicans now hiding in fear from their own constituents’ shadows.
Senator John McCain is the Poster Boy for politicians plagued by the ‘Wobblies’, but now it turns out that Romney has a life-threatening case of it. ‘Wobblies’ have lost the courage they never really had, any zeal for doing the right thing and even their way back home. ‘Wobblies’ go along to get along and hide in pockets provided by the other side becoming Democrats in everything but name." . . .

4. For Twitter, Free Speech Is A High-Wire Act
“Twitter Inc.'s growing ambitions are making it harder to carry the Internet's free-speech banner.” –WallStreetJournal
"Chief Executive Dick Costolo promotes Twitter as a protector of more than 200 million people who broadcast their lives, be it love for a new pop song or Tahrir Square protests. But increasingly, freewheeling tweets are clashing with divergent global laws and standards in markets where Twitter is spreading its wings.
'You have to abide by the rule of law in the countries in which you operate,' the 49-year-old Mr. Costolo said in an interview at Twitter's San Francisco headquarters. Defending free expression 'gets more challenging for us as a company as we become an ever-growing global company, and have a presence and offices and people on the ground around the world.'" . . .

5. Al Qaeda Flag Flies High Above Christian Churches
More Blood On Obama's Hands: Anti-Christian Fury Encourage By Obama's Expected Silence Has Taken On Genocidal Proportions.
"'Allah willing, the day is coming when no Copt will ever again tread the ground of Egypt -- and no churches. We will no longer allow churches to exist.' Days ago, al-Qaeda's Egyptian leader, Ayman Zawahiri, portrayed the overthrow of Muhammad Morsi and the Brotherhood as a 'Crusader' campaign led by Coptic Pope Tawadros II who, according to Zawahiri and other terrorists, is trying to create a Coptic state in Egypt.
Since then, not only are Egypt's Christians and churches now being attacked in ways unprecedented in the modern era, but new reports indicate that al-Qaeda's black flag has been raised on some of them, specifically St. George Church in Sohag." . . . Read More

6. Faith Group To Pentagon
"Why are you listening to this atheist?" -OneNewsNow
"This week AFA dispatched a letter to the U.S. Air Force requesting a face-to-face meeting with Pentagon officials over recent incidents in which Christianity has been censored at military installations. At the center of many of those incidents is a group known as the Military Religious Freedom Foundation which, according to AFA, has urged the Air Force to begin a 'cleansing' of any public expression of the Christian faith in the military.
Bryan Fischer, director of issues analysis for American Family Association, tells OneNewsNow that atheist Mikey Weinstein – president of FFRF – is issuing orders to the Pentagon. In response, says AFA, military leaders are marching to his 'anti-Christian directives.' . . . Read More
