FOX edits and then fakes applause for John Bolton pro-war statement

FOX edits and then fakes applause for John Bolton pro-war statement

Video is 2 min 32 sec     http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=m4JDX0-Uo1E

The 2-minute video is a public meeting of former US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton responding to a US war veteran’s question. The video shows that FOX then edits-out the audience response to replace it with applause from a different person’s question. The proof is that the applause-segment shows a different person walking away from the microphone than the person who asked the question. The veteran testified that the audience booed Mr. Bolton’s answer.

This is not just FOX, but all of the six mega-media US corporations who lie by commission and omission as war propagandists.

I previously documented FOX “reporting”, CBS, ABC, and CNN war propaganda by picking a day to look at their “news” and simply showing what they say.

Importantly, one could do this every single day with similar examples of what I wrote on CNN’s published work of “credible” journalism:

When we now know that all claims for war with Iraq were known lies as they were told (and verbally explained here), and CNN provides similar innuendo for war by an unsourced alleged report with concerns of what might occur in the future allegedly stated by an unnamed US source reporting on an unnamed foreign source, this is propaganda and not news.

You might need to read the above twice to feel the impact of this choice of communication from CNN, then verify the source to see this is exactly what they reported.

Reply from the brave soldier who Bolton had the audacity to accuse of doing a "grave disservice" to the tens of thousands of soldiers who, we'll just say "Served honorably."

MEDIA FINALLY PAYING ATTENTION TO ELIGIBILITY?


PHOENIX, Ariz. – Poll after poll in recent months has indicated that Americans have a high level of concern over Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president, with one poll showing fully half of the nation wants Congress to investigate the question.
But reporters for the traditional media – networks, major newspapers, major news corporations and conglomerates – mostly have giggled when talk turns to the serious question of just what the U.S. Constitution requires of presidents.

The event is tomorrow at 1 p.m. Mountain Standard Time in Phoenix, 3 p.m. Eastern, and 
will be live-streamed by WND.Nevertheless, media organizations from all political persuasions are seeking admittance to a news conference to be held by Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz.
The topic of discussion will be an investigation by Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse into concerns about Obama’s eligibility. It’s the first time an official law enforcement report has addressed many of the allegations about the presumptive 2012 Democratic nominee for president.
The issues include Obama’s eligibility under the U.S. Constitution’s requirements, questions about his use of a Connecticut Social Security number and the image of his purported birth certificate from Hawaii.
Top national media organizations have indicated their plans to attend, and bookings for radio and television reports are in the works. Expected are reporters from the Associated Press, Reuters, Univision, the Washington Times and NBC, CBS and ABC affiliates, as well statewide radio networks, among many others.
Because of the circumstances, a decision was made to hold the press conference at the sheriff’s training center on the outskirts of Phoenix, rather than at the downtown office.
The event is expected to draw protesters who object to the sheriff’s office review of allegations that Obama may attempt to use a fraudulent document to have his name placed on the 2012 presidential election ballot in Arizona.
Without releasing any details, Arpaio has said the findings “could be a shock.”
He constituted a special five-member law enforcement posse last year to investigate allegations brought by members of the Surprise, Ariz., Tea Party that the Obama birth certificate released to the public by the White House on April 27 might be a forgery.
The posse is made up of three former law enforcement officers and two retired attorneys with law enforcement experience. Members have been examining evidence since September concerning Obama’s eligibility to be president under Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, which requires a president to be a natural-born citizen.
Among other issues, there also have been allegations of Obama’s use of a Social Security number that corresponds to a Connecticut address, even though the president apparently had no links there.
WND earlier reported a private investigation found that the Social Security number being used by Obama does not pass a check with E-Verify, the electronic system the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has created to verify whether or not someone is authorized to work legally in the country.
Arpaio’s investigation is the first official law enforcement look at the allegations surrounding Obama’s eligibility. Many of the private investigators who have examined it contend there are too many questionable circumstances to believe that everything regarding Obama is above-board.
Arpaio previously told WND that when he launched his Cold Case Posse it was with the possibility that he would clear Obama.
He said it wasn’t an issue he could ignore, after 250 members of the tea party organization “came to me and asked their sheriff to investigate Obama and the birth certificate.”
The WND TV live-streaming coverage of the news conference Thursday is possible through the support of the Western Center for Journalism.
The decisions in dozens of court cases over the last few years questioning Obama’s eligibility were typified by a recent decision in Georgia in which several individuals filed challenges to Obama’s name on the 2012 ballot and provided evidence to a hearing officer.
Even though Obama and his lawyer deliberately snubbed the case – the lawyer wrote the judge a letter in advance telling him Obama would not attend – the judge threw out the evidence presented by several attorneys and ruled in favor of Obama.
Similar ballot challenges are being filed in a long list of other states already.
The Arpaio investigators were given the case following a meeting held in the sheriff’s office Aug. 17, 2011, with tea party representatives from Surprise, Ariz., who presented a petition signed by more than 250 Maricopa County residents. The petitioners expressed concern that their voting rights could be irreparably compromised if Obama uses a forged birth certificate to be placed on the 2012 presidential ballot in Arizona or otherwise is found to be ineligible.
The tea party letter formally stated the following charge: “The Surprise Tea Party is concerned that no law enforcement agency or other duly constituted government agency has conducted an investigation into the Obama birth certificate to determine if it is in fact an authentic copy of 1961 birth records on file for Barack Obama at the Hawaii Department of Health in Honolulu, or whether it, or they are forgeries.”
The posse was constituted as a 501(c)3 organization, designed to cost the people of Maricopa County nothing, while enabling people from around the country to contribute to its mission.
Those wishing to send a tax-deductible contribution directly to the Cold Case Posse may do so by mailing a check or money order to: MCSO Cold Case Posse, P.O. Box 74374, Phoenix, AZ 85087.
WND has reported that dozens of experts with varying ranges of competency who have looked at the situation believe the birth documentation image released by Obama last year is not genuine.
A flying-banner and billboard campaign to let people know about the questions regarding eligibility that was started by WND CEO and Editor Joseph Farah also has raised the public’s awareness of the situation.
Farah wrote recently that the underlying question to be determined is whether the U.S. Constitution remains the law of the land, or whether it has become “an archaic old document that needs to be amended.”
“At its core, it’s really quite simple: Does Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution dealing with who can serve as president of the United States simply mean that any citizen age 35 or older is eligible? If so, why did the founders use a different term altogether – ‘natural born citizen’? What is a ‘natural born citizen’? Is it anyone born in the United States? If so, why have candidates born outside the United States been deemed eligible? Do we owe it to America’s future to go back in history to determine what that term actually means?
“Until now, as hard as it may be to believe, no official vetting of Obama’s credentials has been done – not by the 50 secretaries of state who oversee elections, not by the Federal Elections Commission that administers the nation’s elections laws, not by the Electoral College, not by any judge in America, not by Congress, not by anyone,” he continued.
Even before the results become public, Farah said he’s confident there will be a significant impact.
“I strongly believe it could be a game-changer,” he said

Castro / Obama

What others see plainly, we often are blind to or just ignore.

Now here's something to think about.

When I was about 9 years old I remember asking my dad about Castro.

I asked, "Is Castro a good guy or bad?"

Dad said...he couldn't tell!! This was about 1955. We were living in
Louisiana...at the time. Dad was in the Army and stationed there.

Cuba was fairly close and in the news a lot. The Cubans were asking the same
question! Ike was president.

This past July 4th, we had the pleasure of sharing a summer barbecue with a
refugee from Cuba. Our dinner conversation was starkly different than most.

This refugee came to the United States as a young boy in the early 1960's.
His family was more fortunate than most, as they were able to bring a
suitcase and $100 when they fled Castro's newly formed revolutionary
paradise.

Our dinner consisted of all-American fare: hamburgers, potato salad, fresh
ears of sweet corn and watermelon. This is a menu shared with family and
friends nationwide...while celebrating the birth of our beloved America...on
the Fourth of July.

We began with a simple discussion about our country, and the direction it
has taken since Barack Obama came to power. We shared the usual complaints
about the sour economy and liberal social engineering emanating from the
rulers in Washington .

But then he said it. The sentence flowed naturally from our refugee guest. I
assume it was unplanned. But it carried the weight of a freight train.

"You know when Castro took power, none of us knew he was a Communist".

We sat stunned. He continued, "Yes, we all thought he was a patriot, a
nationalist. Before the revolution he didn't sound like a radical."

The comparison at this point was easy, and I interjected, "You mean just
like Barack Obama?"

He responded; "Yes, just like Barack Obama." He continued, "We were all
shocked as the government just continued to grab more power. First they said
the revolution is over, so please turn in your guns. We all complied."

I also remember my uncle saying; Castro will only nationalize some of the
big industries. He will never come and take our family hardware store!! But
that is exactly what happened. Castro started with the sugar mills and the
large industries, but they eventually came and knocked on the door of our
family hardware store. My family had run this store for generations. They
said we now own the hardware store, you work for us. And that four-bedroom
home you own...it is now our property too. You have to move yourself and the
five children into those two rooms of the house, because others are moving
in here with you."

The lesson learned from this discussion, is a lesson most Americans refuse
to hear. Political leaders can lie about their agenda and once in office,
they can take totally unexpected turns.

If you had asked us three years ago if we thought General Motors or Chrysler
would be nationalized, we would have never believed it. We could never
contemplate a country where the rule of law, the most fundamental building
block of a justice society...would be evaporating, just like it did in
Castro's Cuba in the early 1960's.

But the news of injustice keeps increasing: Black Panthers are not charged
with wrong doing by the U.S. Department of Justice...because their crimes
are against whites; The bond holders of GM are stripped of their
assets...without being given due process by the government; Car Dealerships
are closed with out due process; Governmental leaders are bribed in full
daylight...only to have all investigation of the crimes stifled...by the
Attorney General; The U.S. borders are over run with crime and illegal
activity, and the leaders in D.C. act as if it is important to protect the
lawbreakers...while the innocent are killed and over run; when local
communities attempt to enforce the law, they are ridiculed...and threatened
as racists and bigots. They are sued by the very administration entrusted
with enforcing the law.

Without the rule of law, the U.S. Constitution is a sham!! Without the rule
of law, our beloved America is swiftly becoming a country where only the well
connected and politically powerful will be safe. As an author recently and
so eloquently explained in her most recent book..."a culture of corruption
has replaced honest government" (Michelle Malkin).

The only way this problem will be fixed, is by massive citizen action. All
honest citizens that want to be treated equally, must come together...and
demand that the favoritism, the bribes, the uneven enforcement of law...end
now!! And yes, it can happen if we all pull together.

PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!! **** ============================= I JUST DID !!!!

And...may God save the United States of America!

...the very least you can do is forward this email. 6 million plus Jews
didn't believe it could happen in Germany either!!! If you're a Christian in
these United States of America, you're probably next on the list. History
bears that out.

The real problem here is, the boy from Cuba did manage to make it to the
U.S. Today he and we will not have any place to escape to...except death!

And, for the most part..even though I'm forwarding this to you, probably
less then 10 will even read it completely, let alone forward on to others.

AS A COUNTRY, HAVE WE BECOME THIS COMPLACENT? WILL YOU JUST TURN YOUR BACK
AND LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES? I HOPE NOT... ****

YOU KNOW I DIDN'T, BECAUSE YOUR READING THIS, AND NOW I HOPE AND PRAY YOU DO
FORWARD IT.
