Vatican Condemns Hallowe'en
sahara
by sahara  10-31-2009    5
 Last year a newspaper controlled by the Italian bishops, Avvenire, called for a boycott of Hallowe'en, calling it a "dangerous celebration of horror and the macabre" which could encourage "pitiless sects without scruples". Earlier this week the Catholic Church in Spain also condemned the growing popularity of Halloween, saying it threatened to overshadow the Christian festival of All Saints' Day. The Bishop of Siguenza-Guadalajara, Jose Sanchez, said there was a risk that Halloween could "replace Christian customs like devotion to saints and praying for the dead."

 "It can start with just a few small steps. Mrs. Parks helped transform a nation by refusing to budge from her seat. Maybe you want to speak up publicly about an important issue, or host a house party, or perhaps arrange a meeting of soon-to-be dismissed employees, or parents at a troubled school. It’s a risk, sure. But the need is great, and that’s how you change the world."

Charles Krauthammer :: Fox Wars
merrie
by merrie  10-23-2009    6
 only disburses more than $3 trillion every year but is extending its reach ever deeper into private industry -- finance, autos, soon health care and energy. Think twice before you run an ad on Fox. At first, there was little reaction from other media. Then on Thursday, the administration tried to make them complicit in an actual boycott of Fox. The Treasury Department made available Ken Feinberg, the executive pay czar, for interviews with the White House "pool" news organizations -- except Fox. The other networks admirably refused, saying they would not interview Feinberg unless Fox was permitted to as well. The administration backed down. This was an important defeat because there's a principle at stake here. While government can and should debate and criticize opposition voices, the current White House goes beyond that. It wants to delegitimize any significant dissent. The objective is no secret.

Fox TV - No Shame for Beck Trivializing Holocaust
nedhamson1
by nedhamson1  10-13-2009    9
 People have been making money by the sack full and gaining power and recognition for generations preaching about who listeners should hate, fear, outlaw, lynch, beat to death. Hitler and Stalin have been joined by Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs and many wannabe head haters - including an ex-governor. In a market-driven economy what's one of the best ways to respond? For me it is to let Fox and CNN know, I am not watching until things change and and recommending the same to others. No Fox, No CNN. No advertising on Fox or CNN. Will they miss me - grin? Only if several hundred thousand join with me in skipping their favorite shows on Fox and CNN. I managed to quit smoking after forty years - cold turkey - so I think I can manage without my local or national Fox, or even the shows I like on CNN until they change. How about you?

Wasn't it Bush that got Chicago on the short list to begin with? The Olympic committee isn't going to give President Obama a chance to take his own advice in 2016..

ACORN's Corporate Donors Backing Off
merrie
by merrie  9-26-2009    5
 Banks and other financial institutions have given millions of dollars and other forms of support to ACORN for decades in response to boycott threats from the organization, as well as accusations of racism and other forms of discrimination in granting personal loans and mortgages. The ACORN campaigns followed passage of the 1977 Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), which was designed to pressure financial institutions to loosen lending standards in order to increase home ownership among poor and minority communities. Legislation strengthening CRA during the Clinton administration greatly encouraged such ACORN activities. Dissident current and former officials of ACORN claim that donations made to AHC and other affiliates are often misappropriated. “There’s no guarantee that any donations are going where they are supposed to be going,” said Ron Sykes, treasurer of the Washington D.C. ACORN and a member of the ACORN 8.

Open Letter From Alex Jones to Glenn Beck
davboz
by davboz   9-17-2009    2
 My own reactions to the Beck Boycott were to battle back. Digging a little deeper, much of this letter coincides with questions I had. As in: ~ "Some of the health reform resistance seems so extreme (death panels) it may have been sprouted by the radical left to drown out serious resistance and questions." That said, I have appreciated Beck pointing in certain directions (history of "progressive movement", etc.) in which I can head off on my own to educate myself on wider ideas. And for calling out the most radical in the current administration, as well. But then, neither am I so sure about all that Alex Jones purports to be the "truth". I sure do know the truth lies in that general direction as opposed to the socialized state or dominant governments.

Conservative squashes freedom of speech to destroy the Green for All Movement

by rachaelkeriwilliams  9-13-2009   
 Looks like the Bush Commission is still having a stifling effect on the First Amendment- Freedom of Speech. The question of whether or not Former President Bush and Administration "allowed 9/11" to happen is pretty much irrelevant- the information that attacks were imminent was circulating within the government and it was not acted upon. Most people have probably forgotten that because Bush launched a war on Afganistan practically the same day the news came out.

 Regarding Obama, he has had immense difficulty seeing past the president's skin. He said Obama was elected because of race instead of his policies. http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200906080010 He has portrayed the Democratic health care reform effort as "the beginning of reparations." http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907220015 He has said that Obama plans to "settle old racial scores through new social justice." http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907240012 So it should have come as no surprise when Beck, who believes it is actually Obama, not himself, who "has real issues with race," http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907270045 said the president had "exposed himself as a guy" with "a deep-seated hatred for white people." http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907280008 The next day, he said "I think the president is a racist." http://mediamatters.org/mmtv/200907290012 The Color of Change boycott started soon afterward. http://colorofchange.org/beck/

The Valerie Jarrett Show
merrie
by merrie  9-8-2009    1
 the leftist group Jones helped to found, and which launched the advertiser boycott against Fox News host Glenn Beck. The counsel's office places part of the blame on the Office for Intergovernmental Affairs and Public Engagement, which is overseen by Obama Senior Advisor and Assistant to the President Valerie Jarrett. "This wasn't simply Valerie Jarrett rubberstamping her guy," says a White House source. But Jarrett did view Jones as a critical member of the administration for her outreach efforts, in part, because he was so well known and respected in the radical-left world Playing to those types is another reason Jarrett's office approved the invitation of Jameel Jaffer, who runs the ACLU's "national security project," to the White House Ramadan dinner last week. Jaffer, a Canadian citizen, attended the dinner, which President Obama said was being held for American Muslims. Jaffer is a cause célèbre to the far left for his career of litigating against

Van Jones Resigns

 Van Jones, well-known in the environmental movement, was a civil-rights activist in California before shifting his attention to environmental and energy issues. He is known for laying out a broad vision of a green economy. Jones flatly said in an earlier statement that he did not agree with the petition's stand on the 9/11 attacks and that "it certainly does not reflect my views, now or ever." As for his other comments he made before joining Obama's team, Jones said, "If I have offended anyone with statements I made in the past, I apologize." Despite his apologies, Republicans demanded Jones quit. Fox News Channel host Glenn Beck repeatedly denounced Jones after a group the adviser co-founded, ColorofChange.org, led an advertising boycott against Beck's show to protest his claim that Obama is a racist.
