This Why We Don't Need No Steeenkin' Czars

Yeah, its those evil white guys who control the media who are definitely the problem. We should go drag them from their mansions and make them broadcast all Zero all the time.

From the Washington Times, reported by the extremely talented Amanda Carpenter.

President Obama's diversity czar at the Federal Communications Commission has spoken publicly of getting white media executives to "step down" in favor of minorities, prescribed policies to make liberal talk radio more successful, and
described Hugo Chavez's rise to power in Venezuela "an incredible revolution."
Mark Lloyd's provocative comments - most made during a tenure at the liberal Center for American Progress think tank - are giving fodder to critics who say Mr. Obama has appointed too many "czars" to government positions that don't require congressional approval. They are also worrying to some conservatives who fear the FCC might use its powers to remove their competitive advantage on talk radio and television.

Many of the remarks have been unearthed by conservative-leaning writers and bloggers and discussed on cable television amid a broader critique of Mr. Obama's penchant for czars that exploded with the ouster this month of "green jobs czar" Van Jones.

In one of his more eye-opening comments, Mr. Lloyd praised Mr. Chavez during a June 2008 conference on media reform, saying the authoritarian Venezuelan president had led "really an incredible revolution - a democratic revolution."
In a video clip of the conference that has been aired by Fox News personality Glenn Beck and others, Mr. Lloyd seems be siding with the anti-American leader against independent media outlets in his own country, some of which supported a short-lived coup against Mr. Chavez in 2002.

"The property owners and the folks who then controlled the media in Venezuela rebelled - worked, frankly, with folks here in the U.S. government - worked to oust him," Mr. Lloyd said. "But he came back with another revolution, and then Chavez began to take very seriously the media in his country."

Mr. Chavez in fact forced the nation's oldest television network, RCTV, off the air in 2007 by refusing to renew its license, replacing it with a state-run station that showed cartoons and old movies while protesters marched in the streets against the shutdown. His government has also threatened to shut down Globovision, one of two TV channels that continue to criticize Mr. Chavez.

Those pesky property owners are always causing problems.

I Wonder Which American Way They Represent

From NewsMax:

I guess "People for the American Way" aren't really all that gung-ho on grassroots activism.
PSHAW!!!!!

A liberal advocacy group founded by TV producer Norman Lear has launched an attack on conservative talker Glenn Beck, saying his influence on the GOP is "shameful."

In an e-mail sent to supporters, People for the American Way's President Michael B. Keegan referred to last weekend's protests in Washington against President Barack Obama and the Democrats and rebutted the claim that as many as 2 million people took part.

"Officials estimated the crowd to be about 60,000," Keating wrote. "Significant, yes, but not indicative that these people are anything more than a vocal minority
representing the views of only a small portion of Americans.

"A PFAW staffer who showed up to check out the scene talked to many participants, and when she asked why they showed up, an overwhelming number gave the same answer: 'Glenn Beck sent me.'"

Keating continued: "It is shameful that the GOP would give someone like Glenn Beck that sort of power. The Rush Limbaughs and Glenn Becks of the world have been pulling the strings of the Republican Party for too long."

Oh bullshit!!!
Rush and Glenn speak for the grassroots conservative movement, NOT the Republican Party.

Thank you Rush.

The Time Is NOW!!!

It looks as though we are entering a new phase on the Obama citizenship issue. It appears that a rumor has surfaced from an FBI agent that a forgery of Obama's birth certificate is under way. This would explain the 120 days requested by Obama's legal team to address an issue regarding a birth certificate, an issue any lawyer worth his salt - let alone one worth millions, himself surrounded by million-dollar lawyers - would put to rest months ago in a heartbeat by simply producing the document and using the moment to belittle his detractors - a technique not at all beneath Obama as we have seen. Paper and ink can be chemically treated to fool dating analysis, but needs a little time to settle in. Inks and papers can be carefully reproduced. Does anyone believe that a man whose ambition is to be the most powerful person on earth would be above such tactics? Can we risk indulging in the happy thought that he would not?
We must assume that this is a new, clock-driven phase we're in. Any other assumption is terribly irresponsible. Time, if half these rumors are true, is against us.
ACTION STEPS:
NOW - is the time to stop posting on message boards in anything but a clear, concise organized attempt to draw large national attention to the Obama citizenship issue.
NOW - is the time to put contact numbers and e-mails HERE for immediate dispersion.
NOW - is the time to use those numbers and e-mails. If you are worried about being identified and having your life ruined by vindictive left-wing activists - a legit concern - use *67 when you call in, which will block your name and number to the radio show or congressional office.
NOW - is the time to call Hannity and wait for 3 hours to get on, using a false topic for clearance through the call-takers and then condemn him before millions for betraying his country by not bringing this issue up with so many guests available and such news-worthiness behind it. Let him know on-air you're calling for all his listeners to turn off their radios for the day in protest and as a sign of strength. That you'll contact his sponsors and threaten to boycott his program on the radio and Fox TV.
NOW - is the time to do the same to Rush.
NOW - is the time to do the same O'Reilly.AND Savage.AND Ingraham. And local conservative stations.

NEXT:Your congressmen care about only one thing: the next primaries.
NOW - is the time to contact them - anonymously if necessary (it's legal, use *67 or separate free Yahoo e-mail accounts created for the purpose) and politely tell them you'll campaign like hell against them in the next primary, never forgetting, to your last breath if need be, if they don’t confront this issue head -on NOW.
Tell them tomorrow is too late - for their re-election.
We don’t have months to organize a tea party on this matter.
The clock may very well be running out.
There is a reason why a million-dollar lawyer consulting with million-dollar lawyers won’t turn over a document you need for a passport or your kid needs to get his drivers license. The reason isn't for the fun of it.
NOW - is the time to take pen to paper, hand to keyboard, voice to phone, and make this go viral this week, the week of May 4, 2009. The week after next may simply be too late if even half of what we’re hearing turns out to be true(that 120-day stall request by Obama's lawyers probably has a very large safety zone built into the timetable as a contingency, just in case)
NOW - is the time to do all these things.
NOW. Not tomorrow. Not in 2 hours. Put off dinner. Forget the movie, or the game, or your favorite reality show. Dinner can stay warm. Your favorite shows will be waiting for you next week.
THE TIME TO LET THOSE WITH THE BULLY PULPIT TO MILLIONS KNOW THAT IF THEY FAIL THEY WILL BE DESPISED FOR THEIR COWARDICE FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES IS NOW.
Sound melodramatic? Sure, but melodrama is their trade. You're only speaking to them in the language they respect when you put it like that. Cut and paste this wherever you will. Add to it. Subtract from it. But get the word out.
If we're responsible, if we care and love this still-free country, if any of what he have heard is in fact true (there are many people still alive who remember Hitler's rein of terror - never confuse the unthinkable with the impossible), then we have no responsible choice but to err on the side of caution - and indignation, quite frankly - and assume the clock may very well be ticking, now. Time waits for no one, and don't expect an evermore-corrupt government to do you any favors.
There is no harm in doing all this if this rumor turns out to be untrue. Indeed, it simply clears up a very, very troubling, nagging issue all the faster. The question is: do you love your country enough to spend a little time on a gamble to save it in the event even half of it is in fact actually true?
Our Founding Fathers are watching you. What would you have them think?
DO IT.
NOW.
Keep this thread alive with contact info, reports on what you are doing, cut-and-paste it elsewhere and provide links here. It's time to get to the bottom of Obama's citizenship status once and for all - BEFORE he covers his tracks.
NOW
