Drowning In Hypocrisy

January 25, 2012
The US government is so full of self-righteousness that it has become a caricature of hypocrisy. Leon Panetta, a former congressman who Obama appointed CIA director and now head of the Pentagon, just told the sailors on the USS Enterprise, an aircraft carrier, that the US is maintaining a fleet of 11 aircraft carriers in order to project sea power against Iran and to convince Iran that “it’s better for them to try to deal with us through diplomacy.”http://ap.stripes.com/dynamic/stories/U/US_PANETTA_AIRCRAFT_CARRIER?SITE=DCSAS&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-01-21-19-22-34
If it requires 11 aircraft carriers to deal with Iran, how many will Panetta need to project power against Russia and China? But to get on with the main point, Iran has been trying “to deal with us through diplomacy.” The response from Washington has been belligerent threats of military attack, unfounded and irresponsible accusations that Iran is making a nuclear weapon, sanctions and an oil embargo. Washington’s accusations echo Israel’s and are contradicted by Washington’s own intelligence agencies and the International Atomic Energy Agency. Why doesn’t Washington respond to Iran in a civilized manner with diplomacy? Really, which of the two countries is the greatest threat to peace?

Even Israel Admits that Iran Has Not Decided to Build a Nuclear Bomb
Despite Misleading Hype, No Government Leaders Think that Iran Is Building a Nuclear Bomb
American and European leaders say that there is no evidence that Iran is building a nuclear weapon.
Even Israel – which has threatened to attack Iran on its own – now admits the same thing.
As Haaretz noted on January 18th:
The intelligence assessment Israeli officials will present later this week to [Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin ] Dempsey indicates that Iran has not yet decided whether to make a nuclear bomb.The Israeli view is that while Iran continues to improve its nuclear capabilities, it has not yet decided whether to translate these capabilities into a nuclear weapon – or, more specifically, a nuclear warhead mounted atop a missile. Nor is it clear when Iran might make such a decision.
UK Sending Even More Ships To Iran
Britain could send military reinforcements to the Gulf in the escalating confrontation with Iran, the Defence Secretary said yesterday as the Tehran regime declared it would "defend the nation" against the threat posed by an EU oil embargo.
Philip Hammond said contingency plans were in place to send extra warships, aircraft and troops to the region if it became necessary. He said the decision to send a flotilla led by the American aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln through the Strait of Hormuz – which Iran had threatened to block – sent "a clear signal about the resolve of the international community to defend the right of free passage through international waters."
Okla. senator wants ban on human fetuses in food
OKLAHOMA CITY – A Republican state senator from Oklahoma City introduced a bill Tuesday that would ban the use of aborted human fetuses in food, despite conceding that he's unaware of any company using such a practice.
Freshman Sen. Ralph Shortey said his own Internet research led him to believe such a ban is necessary and prompted him to offer the bill aimed at raising "public awareness" and giving an "ultimatum to companies" that might consider such a policy.

AP Story On Paul’s First Class Flights Debunked – AP Flat Out Lied
Watch Lawrence O’Donnell (who is no friend of Paul’s) debunk the AP story.
It turns out that those first class flights that Paul was accused of taking on the tax payers dime were actually upgrades that he purchased using his frequent flier miles. Paul buys all his tickets at the standard coach rates. The tickets he buys are refundable which means they are slightly more expensive, but because the congress never sticks to its schedule, it is a necessity that the tickets be refundable rather than the cheaper non-refundable advance tickets.
So in short, the AP story was a flat out smear that has no basis in reality at all.
Don’t hold your breath waiting for a retraction.

Killing You Baby Now Safer Than Keeping It?
NEW YORK |
(Reuters Health) - Getting a legal abortion is much safer than giving birth, suggests a new U.S. study published Monday.
Researchers found that women were about 14 times more likely to die during or after giving birth to a live baby than to die from complications of an abortion.
Experts say the findings, though not unexpected, contradict some state laws that suggest abortions are high-risk procedures.
The message is that getting an abortion and giving birth are both safe, said Dr. Anne Davis, who studies obstetrics and gynecology at the Columbia University Medical Center in New York, and wasn't involved in the new study.
"We wouldn't tell people, 'Don't have a baby because it's safer to have an abortion' -- that's ridiculous," she told Reuters Health. "We're trying to help women who are having all reproductive experiences know what to expect."
An induced abortion -- like any other medical procedure -- requires getting informed consent from the woman, said Dr. Bryna Harwood, an ob-gyn from the University of Illinois in Chicago who also didn't participate in the new research.
That means women understand and acknowledge the risks of their different options.
What makes it complicated, Harwood added, is when the law interferes and requires doctors to state information that isn't always balanced or medically sound -- usually exaggerating the risk of abortion.
The researchers on the new study combined government data on live births and pregnancy- and abortion-related deaths with estimates on legal abortions performed in the U.S. from the Guttmacher Institute, which conducts sexual and reproductive health research and education.
Dr. Elizabeth Raymond from Gynuity Health Projects in New York City and Dr. David Grimes of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, found that between 1998 and 2005, one woman died during childbirth for every 11,000 or so babies born.
That compared to one woman of every 167,000 who died from a legal abortion.

Hockey Player Has A Rare Case Of Ideals, Doesnt Go To White House
Thomas a no-show at White House, releases statement
But not all were there. The MVP was missing as President Obama praised his performance.
A team spokesman said in an email statement that Thomas opted not to attend the event. Thomas later posted a statement on his Facebook page saying,
"I believe the Federal government has grown out of control, threatening the Rights, Liberties, and Property of the People. This is being done at the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial level. This is in direct opposition to the Constitution and the Founding Fathers vision for the Federal government. Because I believe this, today I exercised my right as a Free Citizen, and did not visit the White House. This was not about politics or party, as in my opinion both parties are responsible for the situation we are in as a country. This was about a choice I had to make as an INDIVIDUAL. This is the only public statement I will be making on this topic. TT"

People Arent Voting on Issues
Hear me out here I just realized something. The people that wont support Ron Paul say they wont based on issues. Like issue X or Issue Y. Such as states rights on drugs or foreign policy of not starting new wars.
Well thats a flat out lie. Because they arent actually picking candidates based on issues because their not consistent. If you voted for Newt or Romney for the same reasons you WONT vote for Paul. You are admitting you support the multi trillion dollar bailout, you support Obamacares mandated health insurance, you agree with Newt and Pelosi that we must have new taxes to fight global warming, you agree with amnesty, and NAFTA. But your not voting Paul because of the "issues"....yeah right.

GINGRICH SUPPORTED GOLDWATER? NEWT HELPED REAGAN END THE COLD WAR?
Said Newt Gingrich tonight:
“I went to a Goldwater organizing session in 1964. I met with Ronald Reagan for the first time in 1974. I worked with Jack Kemp, and Art Laffer and others to develop supply side economics in the late ’70s. I helped Governor Reagan become President Reagan. I helped pass the Reagan economic program and worked with the National Security Council on issues including the collapse of the Soviet Empire…”
Said Gingrich before:
On Reagan’s decision to meet with Mikhail Gorbachev, Salon’s Glenn Greenwald notes:
“Newt Gingrich… denounced President Reagan’s rapprochement with Gorbachev in 1985 as potentially “the most dangerous summit for the West since Adolf Hitler met with Chamberlain in 1938 at Munich.”
