Government Cover-ups: Chemtrails From the World Affairs Brief: CHEMTRAILS: FINALLY, SOME ANSWERS Canadian investigative reporter William Thomas has uncovered, through tenacious and prodigious research, some answers to the mysterious chemtrail issue. “Chemtrails” are chemical laden vapor trails dispersed at high altitudes by US military tanker aircraft and by some private aircraft under top-secret contracts with the US government. A draft version of Thomas’ report can be read online at I don’t agree with everything Thomas writes or speculates about, but I will summarize his conclusions and share my analysis of what I think is well founded. The chemtrail phenomenon has been observed for many years in different parts of the US as well as in other allied nations. These chemtrails are primarily characterized by thick trails of white vapor, which persist for long periods of time, gradually dispersing to cover wide areas of the sky. Let’s review some of the major differences between these chemical ...
Today, I visited one of our local DMV centers in the Eastern Panhandle. The staff was unbelievably helpful and responsive, something I greatly appreciated. However, I can't say that all of the rules governing the DMV are rationale. Some are completely ridiculous and need to be changed. One of the reasons I ran for office was to help citizens cut through red tape. Like many of you, I get frustrated by rules that lack common sense. During my tenure in office, we will work to change as many of them as possible. My office has certain enumerated powers, so I can't change everything. So please bear with me and don't expect everything to happen overnight. But we will act when we have constitutional authority to do so. Change is coming to the rulemaking processes in our state. If you have suggestions about how to fix some of our faulty regulations, get ready and email them to our office in January.
I have heard the Senate is currently voting on a new Emergency Manager act, one that flies directly in the face of the message voters sent in November when they rejected Proposal 1. This law reestablished the powers of the Governor's appointed Emergency Managers, and worse, they've inserted an appropriation in the bill so that voters will not have an opportunity to again overturn this blatant power grab.
It is good to honor the Goddess. When she smiles upon you, all things are enriched and prosper.” “Collective wisdom - wisdom larger than one individual's insight - draws near in such moments, as if to say, "Here is a fertile field of people. Here are tenders of spirit. Let's plant this creative possibility, so needed now on earth, right here." “Breathe OUT love, light and gratitude, into Mother Earth, out to Father Sky, and into the hearts and minds of every living thing, friend and foe, experiencing the space in me and around me being conditioned by the love-light-gratitude as a gift from the I AM Presence.” “Human beings and all living things are a coalescence of energy in a field of energy connected to every other thing in the world. This pulsating energy field is the central engine of our being and our consciousness, the alpha and the omega of our existence. 'The field,' as Einstein once succinctly put it, 'is the only reality.” "We are all beings of energy, and are connected to one anothe ...

It really does suck to be a Michigander right now, because your Republican lawmakers apparently hate you – with a passion.
It was good to hear Boehner finally admit that he and the Republican Party are fully responsible for the out of control Federal spending of the past 2 years. But it's clear he still doesn't understand. The only way for the Federal Govenment to get spending undercontrol is for the Republicans to stop issuing 2 trillion dollar blank checks every time they approach the debt ceiling. No more debt equals no more deficent spending.

It was a long night in Leinster House last night for the debate on the Social Welfare Bill and it was disgraceful that, by the time proceedings ended at 11.15pm, just THREE Government TDs were left in the Dail chamber. I found it shocking that none of the rest of the Government felt they should stay around until the debate on something so important as the Respite Grant and cuts to Child Benefit concluded. One thing that seems to have gone under the media radar is the fact that local authority tenants who fall into arrears with their rent will soon be obliged to pay 15% of their social welfare payment until they are up-to-date with their rent again. I proposed an amendment that, if a tenant falls into arrears for more than a month, they are instead referred to MABS, who will make fair arrangements to have them repay their outstanding rent. It was rejected. This is democracy at its very worst

Since the first leaks emerged on Budget 2013 I have had deep misgivings on aspects of the Budget in relation to the changes to PRSI, to child benefit, to respite grants and to the overall regressive nature of the budget in terms of income. Since Monday of last week I have been working to overturn the more odious aspects of this budget. I voted for the measures on the night of the budget in order to allow time myself and other deputies to campaign for the reversal or amelioration of these measures. Even last night I voted for the Second Stage of the Social Welfare Bill in order to allow for an opportunity for an eleventh hour change to be made. I and the other deputies have been unsuccessful in that regard. Therefore, I have this afternoon voted against the Bill. I could not for reasons of conscience, or on the basis of the mandate that I received from my constituents in Galway East, vote for the measures in this Bill. I simply cannot vote in favour of measures that will have such a negative effect on work ...
esident Yoweri Museveni Thursday afternoon addresses Parliament hours after jetting back into the country from a Russian trip. The Ugandan leader held talks with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin at the Novo-Ogaryovo state residence outside Moscow on Tuesday. One of the key issues Museveni is expected to talk about before the House is that of oil, and the government Chief Whip Justine Kasule Lumumba thinks so. She said during the NRM Parliamentary Caucus meeting, the President had promised to talk to the country about the oil resource. Last week the NRM caucus sitting at Parliament entrusted the Energy minister with powers over oil deals through a vote. More than 130 MPs voted 'aye' while only a handful abdsconded. The issue was put to a vote following heated debate over contention over clause 9 of the Petroleum (Exploration, Development and Production) Bill, 2012 with Government wanting the amended clause revisited so that powers to grant and revoke licenses revert back to the energy minister instea ...

666 = The mark of the Beast President Obama Vs Revelation13:15 ­-18 The US Senate has passed the Obama Health Care' bill into law. The implementation Would commence on 23/03/ 2013.This bill would require all Americans to be implanted with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chipin order to access medical care. The device will be implanted on the forehead or on the arm. This is to fulfill the p rophesy in the Book of Revelation 13:15-18 concerning the MARK OF THE BEAST! Are you still in doubt concerning the ENDTIME? GET READY! The rapture is near! Be prepared so you are not caught unaware. Live a good life, pray more, preach the GOSPEL to others and save souls. Revelations 13 is being played out right before us. Many are still unaware. (1) Why is the chip being implanted exactly where the Bible says it would be. Why on the hand and forehead. Why not anywhere else? (2) Why is it being connected to your bank account? Remember the Bible says you won't be able to buy or sell without the mark. And guess wh ...
Week 50 Day 4 (Thursday) Read Ephesians 1-4 Please say a special prayer for Bill L’s mother and his father. She’s going thru some health problems and her husband is having to care for her by himself. Our churches come in all styles and shapes…secret meetings in homes; wide open gatherings in arenas, large sanctuaries, small sanctuaries, internet feeds to movie theatres; meetings in urban storefronts. Buildings will vary but the church is NOT confined to four walls. (read that again!) The church of Jesus Christ is people. HIS PEOPLE. The “church age” began and Pentecost (Acts 2). Persecution fanned the flame of church growth as Paul took the gospel flame to cities and nations. On three journeys Paul and his associates established local churches in scores of Gentile cities. One of the more prominent was the church at Ephesus. Another book probably written from prison in Rome. This is so cool that for Paul, it’s not about where you are but what’s inside. He was penning these letters from his h ...

I have long been a proponent of Abolishing the EPA in it's entirety. Since the very beginning of this bogus agency which Richard Nixon created in an effort to appease The Leftists In The USA who opposed his otherwise conservative agenda, including the Vietnam War, the EPA has been used as a Tool that is selectively used for Political and Special Interest Purposes. There is no consistency in how EPA enforces regulations. They turn a blind eye to projects when told to do so by Presidents and others, while Turning A Lazer Eye on Targets Which They Are Directed To By Presidents. ( For example, Obama is using this Bogus Agency To Try and Destroy our Energy Base in the USA by Getting EPA to Target Mining, Oil Drilling and Energy Production In General. In Order to Protect OPEC and Other Muslim and Communist Oil Producing Nations, Obama Wants To Destroy Our Ability To Produce Our Own Energy making us dependent on Foreign Oil. So, Obama Directs EPA to do what He and Congress Cannot Legislate. Obama, before beco .. ...

“The Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution begins with the premise that the individual is sovereign, meaning that the individual’s rights are supreme and that individuals are free and autonomous. Governance granted to the States is constituted by the sovereign individuals via State Constitutions. Thus the States are also sovereign, being free and autonomous to legislate as they see fit on all matters that do not infringe on individuals, enunciated through the Bill of Rights. Governance is granted by the States to the new Congress limited to the enumerated powers granted to the Congress in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution. The sovereignty of individuals and States is emphasized and reiterated in the Ninth amendment and as the endpoint of the Tenth amendment. That is, a reader would find a list of the powers granted to Congress within Article I, read through the list of entrenched, unalienable rights of the individuals in the first eight amendments, and then if any question remains, find that ...

Bill aimed at giving CCI more teeth tabled With an eye on strengthening the Competition Commission of India (CCI), corporate affairs minister Sachin Pilot introduced a Bill to amend the Competition Act, 2002. This Bill aims at extending CCI’s jurisdiction to cover all M&A deals without the exception of any sector. However, all forced mergers involving, for example, ailing banks and insurance companies would come under the ambit of the RBI and the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority. Once passed, the time period for the CCI to decide on the combinations would come down to 180 days from 210 days. The amended Act would grant powers to the CCI chief to allow the DG, its investigating arm, to carry out search and seizure activities. At present, CCI’s director general, upon authorisation by Delhi’s chief metropolitan magistrate, can carry out search and seizure in any investigation.

The Senate is set to vote on the reauthorization of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act Amendments Act (yes, that is the real name), passed in 2008, which will once again give the government vast powers to spy on American citizens. But as Adam Serwer reports, there is a small cabal of Senators who have drafted amendments to the amendment act, that would reign in law. "The reform proposals are all pretty simple: Don't spy on Americans (which the government claims it's not doing anyway), tell Americans how much the government has spied on them in the past, and explain to the American people exactly how much authority the government believes it has to spy on its own citizens without a warrant. For a Congress bubbling over with Republican anti-big-government crusaders and Democrats who slammed Bush for shredding the Constitution, that ought to be an easy sell, right? " -Erika

Have you ever gotten out of bed in the morning and realized that you don’t simply disagree with your political opponents, but that they just don’t get it? “The one thing that actually works. State run communism may not be your cup of tea, but their government works.” That was said by Jeff Immelt, President Obama’s Jobs Council Head, to Charlie Rose on Monday. Is this where the Obama administration wants us to head? Really? China, though freer than it once was, is a nation that micromanages practically every aspect of its citizenry. If any part of it does work, it is not hard to find the cause – workers who slave away in virtual bond-servitude and a government that holds the power to compel its populace to do things its way. Is that what we want here? This is not the first time such extraordinary statements have come from the Obama Administration. President Obama himself said that, “Generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. It says what the states can’t do to y ...
