			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>By <a href="mailto:rochester_veteran@rochesterconservative.com">rochester_veteran</a></b></p>
<p>rochesterconserative.com member, HowardRoarke, tipped me off to an article on the <a href="http://newzeal.blogspot.com/2010/08/jounolist-soros-google-free-press-and_02.html">New Zeal Blogspot</a> about Journolist members connections to Marxist and far left organizations as well as having ties to the Obama campaign. From the <a href="http://newzeal.blogspot.com/2010/08/jounolist-soros-google-free-press-and_02.html">New Zeal Blogspot</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Many &#8220;JournoListas&#8221; were involved with Marxist based based organizations such as Democratic Socialists of America, or the far left Institute for Policy Studies.</p>
<p>Some, like Robert Kuttner of The American Prospect, had close ties to the Obama campaign and Administration.</p>
<p>An overlapping group of &#8220;JournoListas&#8221; , at least eight strong were centered on another organization, which has close ties to the three highly influential power centers &#8211; financier and &#8220;change agent&#8221; George Soros&#8217; , internet giant Google and DC based non profit Free Press &#8211; accused by its opponents of aiding Obama Administration attempts to censor and manipulate information on the internet.</p>
<p>The organization in question, the Washington DC based New America Foundation has close ties to the Obama Administration, stretching back to Obama&#8217;s alma mater Occidental College in the early 1980s.</p></blockquote>
<p>Marxist journalists shilling in their publications for Obama, who admitted in his book, &#8220;Dreams From My Father&#8221;, his interest in Marxism:</p>
<blockquote><p>To avoid being mistaken for a sellout,I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students.The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist Professors and the structural feminists and punk-rock performance poets.</p></blockquote>
<p>Birds of a feather flocking together for the &#8220;Hope and Change&#8221; to fundamentally transform America into a European style socialist democracy. </p>
<p>&#8220;JournoListas&#8221; connections to the New America Foundation that&#8217;s supported by George Soros, weaves a web of collusion where details of Obama&#8217;s radical past were suppressed by compliant, &#8220;fellow traveler&#8221; journalists. This is truly what Congressman A. S. Herlong Jr <a href="http://www.uhuh.com/nwo/communism/comgoals.htm">described</a> as Communist Goals to the House of Representatives back on January 10, 1963:</p>
<blockquote><p>20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.</p>
<p>21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.</p></blockquote>
<p>Rep. Herlong Jr also listed this:</p>
<blockquote><p>15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.</p></blockquote>
<p>The Democratic Party is now controlled by progressives (aka socialists).</p>
<p>Although the conservative blogsphere suspected all of this, the proof that a Marxist was elected as President of the US with the assistance of a compliant MSM and the Democratic Party is chilling.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>By <a href="mailto:rochester_veteran@rochesterconservative.com">rochester_veteran</a></b></p>
<p>A Federal Judge overturned California&#8217;s Proposition 8, the ban on homosexual marriage. This is the second time a Judge has overturned legislation that was voted in by the people of California. The first was back in May of 2008, when the California Supreme Court struck down Proposition 22, which was voted in back in March 2000. It passed by a margin of 61.4% to 38%.  Proposition 8 passed back on November 2008 by a margin of  52.2% to 47.8%.</p>
<p>Charles Donovan, Senior Research Fellow with the Heritage Foundation had this to say. From <a href="http://www.ocregister.com/opinion/marriage-260724-state-judge.html">The Orange County Register</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Today&#8217;s decision by a federal district judge in San Francisco striking down state constitutional protections for marriage and inventing a spurious federal constitutional right to same-sex marriage is an example of extreme judicial activism. Moreover, it is an affront to the millions of California voters who approved Proposition 8 in 2008 after months of vigorous public debate.</p>
<p>Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. The people of California, and the United States, have made clear in numerous ways that they have not consented to the redefinition of marriage. For the past two decades they have considered the arguments advanced by some for overturning marriage as it has been understood in our country. In state after state – 45 in all – they have chosen to reaffirm the meaning of marriage as the union of one man and one woman. They have done so because they understand that establishing same-sex marriage would transform the institution into a set of private interests rather than buttress it as a multi-generational reality binding mothers, fathers and their children biologically, socially and legally.</p></blockquote>
<p>Again, this is the second time the judiciary has overturned the will of the people of California, judicial tyranny at its worst!</p>

<p>A <a href="http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/general_state_surveys/new_york/56_in_new_york_favor_repeal_of_health_care_bill">Rasmussen Poll</a> that was published yesterday showed that 56% of New Yorkers support repeal of the Health Care Reform Bill.</p>
<blockquote><p>Fifty-six percent (56%) of New York voters favor repeal of the new national health care bill, according to a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state.</p></blockquote>
<p>Considering that New York is a pretty liberal state (due to Downstate dominance), I was surprised at the percentage of people that favored repeal. According to <a href="http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/general_state_surveys/new_york/56_in_new_york_favor_repeal_of_health_care_bill">Rasmussen</a>, the percentage of people who favor repeal has risen by 6% since April. People are finding out what&#8217;s actually in the bill and are finding out that it really doesn&#8217;t reform, but does add mandates and more government regulations that will end up costing us, not only in the wallet, but also our liberties. </p>
<p>The mandate that forces people to buy health insurance in the Health Care Reform (NOT!) Bill is un-Constitutional and violates the Commerce Clause. Fourteen States are suing the Federal Government to block the bill.</p>
<p>Nationally, <a href="http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/current_events/healthcare/health_care_law">Rasmussen</a> reports that 58% of Americans support repeal of the  Health Care Reform (NOT!) Bill. </p>
<p>Remember in November and vote out everyone in the House and Senate who voted for the  Health Care Reform (NOT!) Bill!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b>By <a href="rochester_veteran@rochesterconservative.com">rochester_veteran</a></b></p>
<p>Rush Limbaugh was all over Clinton appointee, Judge Susan Bolton&#8217;s ruling that ripped the guts out of the Arizona immigration law sb1070. From <a href="http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_072810/content/01125110.guest.html">RushLimbaugh.com</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Associated Press, partisan political operatives, and the Democrats are just doing handstands. They are ecstatic. Susan Bolton, the judge, &#8220;has blocked the most controversial sections of Arizona&#8217;s new immigration law from taking effect tomorrow, which is a major victory to opponents of the crackdown. The law is still gonna take effect but without many of the provisions that angered the opponents, including sections that require officers to check a person&#8217;s immigration status while enforcing other laws.&#8221; The cops cannot do that now. Why not? Now, this is just until the courts resolve the issues. This is a temporary injunction, pending a trial to have final adjudication on this. But this is just flat-out amazing. Who is going to enforce immigration law if the Feds are not going to do it?</p>
<p>I mean, there are states that already do this, cops that already determine this. What about raids in states that are hiring illegals and they&#8217;re found and they&#8217;re deported? &#8220;Yeah, Rush, but those are federal agents doing that.&#8221; No, not entirely. Local police in Rhode Island are enforcing federal immigration law, but now a judge has said that that cannot happen in Arizona, pending the results of a trial. By the way, if this gets all the way to the appellate court that&#8217;s the Ninth Circus Court of Appeals that will decide this, which is to say they will uphold her. So if this ends up as far as they go there&#8217;s going to be a trial with this and be after that then it will get to the Ninth Circus. So local cops will no longer be able to go after kidnappers. I mean, that&#8217;s a federal offense. This is absurd. This is patently absurd, and I&#8217;m going to tell you something.</p>
<p>All of you Democrats, all you liberals, you think you&#8217;ve won something here. This is just gonna add to your defeat, the size of your defeat come November. </p></blockquote>
<p><a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2010/07/28/2010-07-28_arizona_immigration_law_sb_1070_has_support_of_55_of_americans_new_poll_shows.html">Polls are showing</a> that 55% of Americans support Arizona sb1070. That&#8217;s a similar percentage that was opposed to the Health Care Reform (NOT!) Bill that was shoved down our throats.  You can be sure that Obama ordered Holder to file this lawsuit that goes against the will of the American people and the people of Arizona and lackey Judge Susan Bolton followed the party line with her ruling that yet again went against the will of the American people and enforcement of the rule of law.</p>
<p>Americans will Remember in November!</p>

<p>The un-Constitutional &#8220;Disclose Act&#8221; failed 57-41 in yesterdays (7/27/2010) cloture vote in the Senate! The Republicans all voted against it.</p>
<p>If it had passed, the so-called &#8220;Disclose Act&#8221; &#8212; more properly referred to as the &#8220;Incumbent Protection Act&#8221; &#8212; would have:</p>
<p>
<li>Imposed sweeping new regulations on organizations  to keep them quiet and cripple their effectiveness during election years; </li>
<li>Forced grassroots organizations to publicize and release the names of their top five contributors making them vulnerable to threats, intimidation or worse from political dissidents;
</li>
<li>Required organizations to expose the location of their top donor&#8217;s home and workplace in the disclaimer at the end of every television ad. </li>
<p><p>
Of course, New York Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer both voted for this un-Constitutional act. We&#8217;ve got to vote them out this November!</p>

<p>Peter Brown, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, had an interesting and informative article in the Wall Street Journal about Independent voters and where they stand. From <a href="http://blogs.wsj.com/capitaljournal/2010/07/25/who-are-the-independents-and-what-are-they-thinking/">Who Are the Independents, and What Are They Thinking?</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>At this point, independents are significantly closer to Republicans than they are to Democrats on a host of questions involving their views of President Barack Obama, the political parties and issues. This is a reversal of the situation in 2006 and 2008.</p>
<p>Unless the Democrats can move independents’ views closer to their own, they are likely to face the same fate Republicans met in the last two elections.</p></blockquote>
<p>Brown is basing this on a Quinnipiac national poll of 2,181 voters that was released last week.</p>
<p>This shift by Independents to the right is not surprising to me. By it&#8217;s very nature based on its founding, America is a fundamentally conservative country. Many people got snookered by &#8220;hopey changey&#8221; and the desire to elect a person of color to the presidency and the MSM was complicit in keeping the lid on Obama&#8217;s radical past. Unless people were reading conservative blogs, they didn&#8217;t know about any of this. Now that people have been able to see Obama and his administration in action, they are witnessing his agenda of transforming our country into a European style socialist democracy. Independents are taking notice of this direction Obama is leading our country away from its founding principles and are waking up with a case of buyers remorse.</p>
<p>I also believe that the Tea Party Movement has been instrumental in sounding the alarm to the American people of Obama&#8217;s socialist agenda. We had to speak out because the MSM is almost fully behind Obama and acting like TASS back in the days of the Soviet Union. We hit the streets, regular working class folks, and people saw us and listened to us and our message of smaller government, lower taxes, adherence to the Constitution and individual liberty resonates with most Americans. The radicals and socialists are well organized and loud but we outnumber them by a wide margin. The Independents are seeing socialism in action in the White House and they are rejecting it.</p>
