February 17, 2011 journal, military hypnotizing of U.S. Senate for more men and money for the war in Afghanistan. Is there a way to stop the killing machine of a Red Pentagon. Endless wars to keep the money flowing while our unaborted school children go hungry. We can report on the tyrants of the world except for the tyrants from within our country. Fox News and their gang of bloody Cheney supporters are not a friend to this country. You can look for the union label all day long but there is no more American made thing. It is said that WWI was started over nothing, actually, all wars are started over nothing. On Thursday 700 Club had a man that was dead for 90 Minutes from an accident. His book 90 Minutes in Heaven tells of the glories of heaven and the angels taking him there. According to the 700 Club Christian yoga is being offered now, even Jewish yoga is available. This may be one of the most healthy exercises of the Hindu world. I used to do thi chi with the Chinese in Hong Kong. March winds are blowing here already which seem to blow more in April than in March with the first and only unfriendly signs of summer howling around the corners. Gas prices now over $100 per barrel at $3 per gallon here is more about the war on Wall Street than in the Middle East. Why don't they just go ahead and print enough fiat money to give everybody some, not just banks, they will spend it and business will be real good. The crooked dirty judge in Stratton Pennsylvania was convicted of 14 of 78 counts of abuse of power, corruption and taking bribes. He was mentioned in the Michael Moore movie as putting teenagers in jail for profit from a privatized system he helped to create. He is still free on bail awaiting sentencing. So much for the privatizing of America. He was given a million dollars kickback from the system and that's probably just a drop in the bucket. Moore's movie showed his yacht and many other extravagant things he purchased. It's not much different from Main to Seattle or Chicago to Miami. The mother of one of his Young victim's that committed suicide from the ordeal was shown on national television screening in his face saying " remember me, remember me, remember my son". A black man here took 2 butcher knives from a Wal-Mart store and was threatening to use them on individuals or security before they arrested him and disarmed him of knives. Gasoline raised overnight to 3.19 about 10%, its cannibalism. They're taking advantage. Why are the baby Dolphins dying in the Gulf? Why are most Gulf residence coughing thinking they have the flu? This is a question for BP! It is the chemicals they sprayed. The 700 Club had a New Zealand citizen on Friday testifying of his death out of body experience. All these people saw light. Some wrote books others did not. I suggest you have a show entitled 'out of body'. A doctor was on the 700 Club Television that heals people saying the Holy Spirit can be measured in people. He decides whether to treat them with medicine or prayer. I have detected the Holy Spirit in people most of my life and I thought that was normal. I also automatically detect the spirit of the devil in people but I have never really announced it. This doctor said scientifically there is an electricity. February 18, 2011 journal, important stuff you will never see from Zionist owned media. Nearly all the press is owned by the Zionist or their collaborators in the war on freedom and independence. Only a move by God himself will wake up the dead American church! "The office of israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu offered their counterpart in the Egyptian government, Omar Suleiman, also head of Egyptian intelligence, to send death squad units, the groups of militant zionist murderers who wear Arab civilian clothes also known as "mistaaravim", to infiltrate the protesters in Egypt in order to assassinate the leaders of the opposition and the revolutionary movement who take part in the protests against the dictatorial regime of Hosni Mubarak and his thugs. The israeli hebrew newspaper "Maariv" revealed yesterday that high-level officials in the office of Benjamin Netanyahu carried out in recent days a series of phone calls with Suleiman and advised him about the urgent necessity of "security" coordination on several issues between Israel and Egypt. The newspaper added that the prevention of smuggling weapons through the tunnels on Egypt's border to the Gaza Strip was only one issue among others which the officials discussed. The Quds Press agency, quoting Israeli sources, said that the jewish zionist state had offered General Omar Suleiman, now appointed "vice-President of the Republic of Egypt" by dictator Mubarak, to put "all potential resources" at his disposal to "protect the regime in Egypt", including the implementation of the "specific operations to pre-empt the popular revolution", and asked him to work together to prevent what they called smuggling weapon to the Gaza Strip". Quds Press added that an official in the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that they had called Suleiman on Sunday 30 January 2011 and expressed their concern about the situation in Egypt, offering him the resources of the Israeli intelligence to implement special operations to end the protests. The Israeli source added that Netanyahu and Suleiman had discussed possible ways to secure the "border" of Egypt with the israeli jewish entity. The Israeli Prime Minister offered Suleiman to put the possibilities of the zionist entity at his disposal if he felt that his regime was in danger. On the other hand, US government representatives called Egyptian officials several times to discus the issue of Israels security concerns at the common border of the Sinai peninsula. After those calls, Egypt redeployed thousands of soldiers to the Sinai Peninsula to protect the so-called Israeli "security" with the consent of Israel, to bolster security in the face of protests demanding the fall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, which has spread throughout Egypt. According to the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel signed in 1979, the Sinai is a demilitarized area. But the jewish "state" demands that Egypt deploy its forces in the region whenever they need them to protect zionist entity. In 2005, when Israel withdrew its forces from Gaza, Egypt deployed its forces in the Sinai for the first time after the signing of the so-called "peace treaty" in order to protect the border between Gaza and Egypt. German Chancellor Angela Merkel, accompanied by more than half of her government, arrived today 1 February 2011 in Israel to discuss the issue of Israeli security and the wishes of israel for any new government which may be declared in Egypt in light of the Egyptian revolution against the current regime, they declared that "the world must force" Egypt to continue abiding by the decrepit "peace treaty" signed in 1979. US ex-ambassador to Egypt, Frank Wisner, returned to Cairo to meet senior Egyptian officials and to discuss the Israeli security issue and its demands, and the possibility of a transfer of power in Egypt to a pro-US and pro-Israel regime in the wake of crisis gripping Egypt since a week". One comment from Charles-"Has to be another shill supporting the Israeli War machine. The Egyptian People have a right to be free from tyrannical rulers, I know that Isreal helped to put him there and keep him there! The Israelis should keep their noses out of other people's business! It is Israel that is behind all the terrorists plots around the world! They hate all Gentiles because they are brainwashed to hate and murder by their tyrannical rulers! Everyone wants peace in the world! All accept the bastard demonic leaders of Israel! You are more fool for being so easily manipulated by these Zionist despots! You can't love people because it has been removed from you with years of being told how to think, what to think & how to hate and destroy everything good in this world! What kind of cult are you really in! Yes Jews are in a cult, not a religion or race. A dangerous and f--king evil cult! Try to show some signs of love and Compassion in your hearts instead of such vile hatred for all humanity!! What demons are you serving?" February 20, 2011 journal, you have more money in your pocket than BankAmerica paid in taxes or Citibank or Mighty G E or Exxon Mobile according to a report from Truthout. CNN reporting on failing nations said the people of Greece do not pay taxes thinking that only a fool would pay taxes. It is funny how we can get such good jokes out of misery. You want to bet the America's major corporations pay more money in taxes than you have it your pocket? "Today, hundreds of thousands of people comprising a Main Street Movement - a coalition of students, the retired, union workers, public employees, and other middle class Americans - are in the streets, demonstrating against brutal cuts to public services and crackdowns on organized labor being pushed by conservative politicians. These lawmakers that are attacking collective bargaining and cutting necessary services like college tuition aid and health benefits for public workers claim that they have no choice but than to take these actions because both state and federal governments are in debt. But it wasn't teachers, fire fighters, policemen, and college students that caused the economic recession that has devastated government budgets - it was Wall Street. And as middle class workers are being asked to sacrifice, the rich continue to rig the system, dodging taxes and avoiding paying their fair share. In an interview with In These Times, Carl Gibson, the founder of US Uncut, which is organizing some of today's UK-inspired massive demonstrations against tax dodgers, explains that while ordinary Americans are being asked to sacrifice, major corporations continue to use the rigged tax code to avoid paying any federal taxes at all. As he says, if you have "one dollar" in your wallet, you're paying more than the "combined income tax liability of GE, ExxonMobil, Citibank, and the Bank of America": [Gibson] explains, "I have one dollar in my wallet. That's more than the combined income tax liability of GE, ExxonMobil, Citibank, and the Bank of America. That means somebody is gaming the system." Help fight ignorance.

Indeed, as politicians are asking ordinary Americans to sacrifice their education, their health, their labor rights, and their wellbeing to tackle budget deficits, some of the world's richest multinational corporations are getting away with shirking their responsibility and paying nothing. ThinkProgress has assembled a short but far from comprehensive list of these tax dodgers - corporations which have rigged the tax system to their advantage so they can reap huge profits and avoid paying taxes: BANK OF AMERICA: In 2009, Bank of America didn't pay a single penny in federal income taxes, exploiting the tax code so as to avoid paying its fair share. "Oh, yeah, this happens all the time ," said Robert Willens, a tax accounting expert interviewed by McClatchy. "If you go out and try to make money and you don't do it, why should the government pay you for your losses?" asked Bob McIntyre of Citizens for Tax Justice. The same year, the mega-bank's top executives received pay "ranging from $6 million to nearly $30 million." Boeing Aircraft Co. has just lifted $300 million from a hurting South Carolina Treasury. BOEING: Despite receiving billions of dollars from the federal government every single year in taxpayer subsidies from the U.S. government, Boeing didn't "pay a dime of U.S. federal corporate income taxes" between 2008 and 2010. CITIGROUP: Citigroup's deferred income taxes for the third quarter of 2010 amounted to a grand total of $0.00 . At the same time, Citigroup has continued to pay its staff lavishly. "John Havens, the head of Citigroup's investment bank, is expected to be the bank's highest paid executive for the second year in a row , with a compensation package worth $9.5 million." EXXON-MOBIL: The oil giant uses offshore subsidiaries in the Caribbean to avoid paying taxes in the United States. Although Exxon-Mobil paid $15 billion in taxes in 2009, not a penny of those taxes went to the American Treasury. This was the same year that the company overtook Wal-Mart in the Fortune 500. Meanwhile the total compensation of Exxon-Mobil's CEO the same year was over $29,000,000. GENERAL ELECTRIC: In 2009, General Electric-the world's largest corporation - filed more than 7,000 tax returns and still paid nothing to U.S. government. They managed to do this by a tax code that essentially subsidizes companies for losing profits and allows them to set up tax havens overseas. That same year GE CEO Jeffery Immelt-who recently scored a spot on a White House economic advisory board - "earned total compensation of $9.89 million." In 2002, Immelt displayed his lack of economic patriotism, saying, "When I am talking to GE managers, I talk China, China, China, China, China ....I am a nut on China. Outsourcing from China is going to grow to 5 billion." WELLS FARGO: Despite being the fourth largest bank in the country , Wells Fargo was able to escape paying federal taxes by writing all of its losses off after its acquisition of Wachovia. Yet in 2009 the chief executive of Wells Fargo also saw his compensation "more than double" as he earned "a salary of $5.6 million paid in cash and stock and stock awards of more than $13 million." In the coming months, politicians across the country are going to tell Americans that the only way to stave off huge deficit and balance the budgets is by gutting programs for the poor, eviscerating support for the middle class, eliminating labor rights, and decimating the government's ability to serve the public interest. This is a lie. The United States is the richest country in the history of the world, and income inequality is higher now than it has been at any time since the 1920's, with the top "top 1 percentile of households [taking] home 23.5 percent of income in 2007." It is simply unfair for Main Street Americans who've already been battered by one of the worst economic crises in our history to have to continue to sacrifice while the rich and well-connected continue to rip off taxpayers and avoid paying their fair share. That's why a Main Street Movement consisting of Americans who are fed up with the status quo is rocking the nation, and one of its first targets should be tax dodgers like Bank of America and Boeing. "America is a Free Fire Zone-Ernest Partridge, The Crisis Papers: "On January 12, thirty thousand people attended a memorial service for the seven victims of the Tucson massacre. Thirty thousand: that's about the same number of Americans who died in 2006 from gunshot wounds. Almost one hundred every day. That is a statistic that stands alone among the civilized nations of the world... Then, as now, I asked myself, what more can I say about the gun menace in the United States, that has not been repeated, time and again, ad nauseam? What could I possibly add to the debate? Perhaps my contribution might be drawn from insights gained from my four decades of toil as a professor of philosophy and a frequent teacher of critical thinking"
