Dr. Edgar Mitchell: Aliens Have Visited!

Whoa!!

When I first came across this, I was like, "This is a joke."

Usually, this type of talk is reserved on "The Sci Fi Channel" or the tabloids.

Here's one of OUR astronauts, Dr. Edgar Mitchell, an astronaut on Apollo 14, saying that THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT ALIEN LIFE EXIST!!

Now some may say, "Of course there are UFOs." or "Big friggin' deal."

Well, it IS a big deal, because NASA has an unofficial "non-disclosure policy" towards this type of talk. It's TABOO for NASA astronauts to even discuss this topic in public!

So that's why this is such a "big deal."

Check it out below (This clip is courtesy of Youtube.com):

Dr. Edgar Mitchell: Aliens Have Visited!

UFOs:

They're here already?

"Big Deal," indeed!!

Food for Thought...

Just some Food for Thought...

Homeland Security, Deutschland Sicherheit?

Well, I don't want you there with me!! I LOVE my privacy!!

Police State: 2008

Oh really? Is it truly safe?

Homeland Security: Are we really secure?

Get off the phone, man! I'm talking to my Moms!!

Freedom?

What have we wrought?

Liberty Has been "secured"

Let her go, damnit!!

The Future??

No, I would rather not want to find a terrorist under by bed. That being said, I DON'T WANT YOUR ASS UNDER MY BED, EITHER!!!

Am I living in the freakin' Twilight Zone?!

Update!! HR 6304 - A Bill to Abolish the 4th Amendment.. IS NOW LAW!!

This is an update of this pos t.

On 7/8/08, Dubya Bush signed HR 6304 into law, allowing the gov't to spy on Americans,

It also:

1) Allows the telecom companies to kept it secret and protects them from lawsuits and prosecution,

2) Permits the gov't not to keep records of searches, and destroy existing records,

3) Increased the time allowed for warrantless surveillance to continue from 48 hours to 7 days,

4) Prohibits the individual states from investigating, sanctioning of, or requiring disclosure by complicit telecoms or other persons,

5) Removes requirements for detailed descriptions of the nature of information or property targeted by the surveillance,

6) Requires FISA court permission to wiretap Americans who are overseas,

7) Prohibits targeting a foreigner to eavesdrop on an American's calls or e-mails without court approval,

8) Allows eavesdropping in emergencies without court approval, provided the government files required papers within a week,

9) Prohibits the government from invoking war powers or other authorities to supersede surveillance rules in the future

10) Removes requirements for detailed descriptions of the nature of information or property targeted by the surveillance

and pretty much rapes The Fourth Amendment.

This was passed without The Mainstream Media saying a damn thing!

This is what The Fourth Amendment says:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

The Constitution & Dubya

It's only a god-d*mned piece of paper! - President George W. Bush

State employee won't lower flags for Helms...

State employee won't lower flags for Helms

By The Associated Press

Wednesday, July 9

updated 4:35 pm

RALEIGH (AP) -- A longtime North Carolina state employee has chosen to retire instead of lowering flags to honor former Sen. Jesse Helms, saying in an e-mail that the late conservative had a "doctrine of negativity, hate and prejudice."

U.S. and state flags flew at half-staff on Monday and Tuesday following an order from Gov. Mike Easley. Helms died Friday.

L.F. Eason III, director of the state Standards Laboratory - which calibrates equipment for critical measurements such as the weight of medicines or trucks on a highway - told his staff to ignore the directive. He sent workers an e-mail saying he didn't think it was appropriate.

"I don't see how anybody could celebrate his career," the 51-year-old said in an interview, noting Helms' opposition to the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the filibuster to stall the effort to make Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday a national holiday. "Everything he did was such a disservice to this state."

Eason, who had worked for 29 years at the Department of Agriculture, requested the option to retire Monday after his superiors overruled his decision and ordered the flags be lowered. Eason wrote an e-mail to the governor and other supervisors saying he could not in good conscience honor Helms.

The governor's orders were for state agencies to keep the flags lowered until Tuesday at sunset - after Helms' funeral and burial. The flags were flying at full-staff Wednesday.

A spokesman with the agriculture department did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment Wednesday.

Ironically, Eason's unyielding stance mirrored the man he refused to honor. Helms steadfastly stood by his positions throughout his career, frustrating fellow lawmakers for an unwillingness to compromise.

Helms' political career made him a lightning rod for controversy. He entered politics in helping elect segregationist candidate Willis Smith to the Senate in 1950 and continued a drumbeat of racial division until his final campaign in 1996.

The conservative icon also clashed with gay activists by opposing domestic AIDS treatment.

"I can't say my hardheadedness is the same as his," Eason said. "Maybe it is the same level of conviction. I'd like to think that it's more righteous than Jesse's."

L.F. Eason III

A man of conviction

(L.F. EASON,III) For refusing to honor Jesse Helms. "Eason, a 29-year veteran of the state Department of Agriculture, instructed his staff at a small Raleigh lab not to fly the U.S. or North Carolina flags at half-staff Monday, as called for in a directive to all state agencies by Gov. Mike Easley." Now Mr. Eason, not honoring that racist scum, and standing for your convictions, is HFN behavior.

Amen, Mr. Eason, AMEN...

House Negroes on Fox: Juan Williams, Jesse Lee Peterson, etc...

I gotta say this (Excuse the language, folks!):

The first and second clips are courtesy of Youtube.

F*CK JESSE!! F*CK AL!! F*CK JUAN!! AND ALL THE REST OF YOU "SELLOUT NEGROES!!"

It's really a shame when "House Negroes" get mad at a Black man (Well technically, Obama's biracial, but this IS American after all.) for actually having a legitimate shot at being the First President of Color.

It's a damn shame.

And for Jesse Jackson wanting to "cut Obama's nuts off" (That's an actual quote, as you will soon see.) well...

F*CK YOU, JESSE!!

YOU ARE JUST HATIN' ON OBAMA BECAUSE HE DID WHAT YOU COULDN'T!!

HATIN'-ASS HOUSE NEGRO!!

50 Cents is speaking...

Now before you check this video out (courtesy of WorldstarHipHop.com), it does have harsh language and Fiddy says the "dreaded N-Word" alot.

But if you look & listen past the language, he actually make sense, ALOT of sense.

Peep it out:

Woooooow...

Fiddy DOES have a smart head on his shoulders.

Standing Up...

I thought I'd put up this pic that was sent to me on my Myspace page.

Amen...

Viacom To Get A Look At The You In Youtube...

WTF?

What is this world coming to?

Do we have ANY RIGHTS AT ALL?

Viacom To Get A Look At The You In Youtube

4 July 2008 10:35 AM, PDT

Viacom's efforts to keep its TV shows and movies off YouTube has resulted in a court ruling that could have profound implications for websites in general. Under the ruling the video website must turn over to Viacom the user names (but not the actual names) of every YouTube user, their IP addresses and a list of videos that each user has watched on YouTube. Under the ruling, the data would only be disclosed to Viacom and would not be made pu

blic. Google, which owns YouTube, expressed disappointment with the ruling but did not indicate whether it plans to appeal.

*********

Now Viacom wants to be in your business, too. Even if you've NEVER watched an Viacom-affiliated show on Youtube, they want your lists, IP addys, and anything else they can get.

Question: Why is it necessary to get a list of videos of what people watch on Youtube?

Answer: TO BE F*CKIN' NOSY!!

To Viacom: Please read this...
