No media is allowed inside the fenced complex.... No media is allowed inside the fenced complex... [Brian] Sotelo scrolls through the photos he took inside the facility... images on the small screen include lines of outdoor portable toilets, of snow and ice breaching the bottom of the tent and an elderly woman sitting up, huddled in blankets... when it became clear that the residents were less than enamored with their new accommodations Wednesday night and were letting the outside world know about it, officials tried to stop them from taking pictures, turned off the WiFi and said they couldn’t charge their smart phones because there wasn’t enough power...

The most important election held in the United States on Nov. 6 was not the one that determined which teleprompter reading, neuro-linguistic programmer would occupy our screens for the next four years (if that description is too obscure, we mean the President of the United States), it was the one in California that determined what citizens could choose or not choose to take into their digestive tracts for the rest of their lives. We speak of California Proposition 37, which if passed would require the labeling of GMO food products. Unfortunately, in spite of strong polling in favor of its passing before the election, it failed. This was due in part to an agri-business sponsored media blitzkrieg leading up to election day, but also by election fraud...

Lame Cherry: The Election BoxGATE

Amid all of these questions of the veracity of the election results, and with the persistent questions surrounding the Benghazi situation as well as Fast and Furious - two scandals that implicate the administration in at best negligent mass homicide - some electors designated to vote for the Democratic ticket may be persuaded to alter their votes. This has happened on occasion in the past for a variety of reasons given by so-called "faithless electors," though it has never changed the expected outcome of an election. There is always a first time for everything, however, and it is notable that the subject was of enough interest to some members of Congress to have this report completed on the eve of the general election...

Congressional Research ServiceThe Electoral College - How It Works in Contemporary Presidential Elections

Twenty four states legally require their electors to abide by the popular vote, swing states Florida and Ohio among them, though as noted in the CRS report, "most constitutional scholars believe that once electors have been chosen, they remain constitutionally free agents, able to vote for any candidate who meets the requirements for President and Vice President..." (Pg. 6).

Occupy.com (A.G. Marshall): WHY SO SECRETIVE? THE TRANS-PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP AS GLOBAL CORPORATE COUP

As a letter from Congress to United States Trade Representative Ron Kirk stated, the TPP “will create binding policies on future Congresses in numerous areas,” including “those related to labor, patent and copyright, land use, food, agriculture and product standards, natural resources, the environment, professional licensing, state-owned enterprises and government procurement policies, as well as financial, healthcare, energy, telecommunications and other service sector regulations.”...

...leaked documents revealed that the Obama administration “intends to bestow radical new political powers upon multinational corporations,” as Obama and Kirk have emerged as strong advocates “for policies that environmental activists, financial reform advocates and labor unions have long rejected for eroding key protections currently in domestic laws.”


Just the sort of policy a voice for the working man like Bruce Springsteen can get behind.
