Chinese President lands in US for state visit
Jan 19th
WASHINGTON: China”s President Hu Jintao arrived in the United States Tuesday for a state visit promising frank talk over economics and currency disputes, but likely to expose a wide gulf over human rights. Hu landed at Andrews Air Force base and was expected soon afterwards at the White House for a rare private dinner hosted by President Barack Obama in recognition of the key nature of a relationship under severe recent strain. US military officers rolled out a red carpet and gave full military honors complete with a brass band to the Chinese leader, who arrived at the base, just outside Washington, aboard an Air China jet.

Jan 1st
By Tom Carter The issue of where President Obama was born just won’t go away. I wrote an article 18 months ago that posed the question: “The President could put this whole thing to rest simply by releasing his detailed birth certificate. Why won’t he do that?” I believed at the time, as the evidence indicates, that he was born in Hawaii, and I still believe it. I also still wonder why the President won’t put an end to the debate. Now some Democrats are asking the same question. The new Democratic governor of Hawaii, Neil Abercrombie, said he’s “going to take care of that.” It isn’t clear what he plans to do, but he’s apparently working on determining whether there is some way for him to release all or part of the information on Obama’s long-form birth certificate. One thing is certain, though; if President Obama doesn’t want that information released, Governor Abercrombie may find that the President has a very long arm.

Dec 12th
By Nancy Morgan Political correctness is loosely defined as “avoidance of expressions or actions that can be perceived to exclude or marginalize or insult people who are socially disadvantaged or discriminated against.” In other words, millions of Americans have willingly allowed themselves to be placed in the losing position of continually being forced to prove a negative. “I’m not a racist,” “I’m not homophobic,” “I’m not a greedy capitalist”…ad nauseum.

They subject us to the sorts of governmental control the Constitution was intended to prevent and violate Fourth Amendment prohibitions in ways highly up close and personal.
