Jef Night - The New America

I have always believed that some of the best work of Jesus today is probably done through atheists while he waits for the Christians to wake the F*** up.

The cross is just another brand in America. People wave it around like a flag and call themselves exceptional. It is the most powerful political symbol there is for some people. In those places I think it just might be taking on a swastika like use. . and I do wonder if Jesus is actually becoming dead in people's minds there.

That is why this song caught my attention and made me cheer inside. I like the slap in the face it presents to our nation of political Christianity.

Politics: Michael Kirschbaum - Justice Accomplished

This is Michael Korschbaum's first post on YouTube under the account name Whitehousedotgov and it has alread hit 21,247 views in 2 months. I can't find much else about him but the video speaks for itself. This is YouTube and free speech in action. It's shocking and some might even say offensive but I think it makes a point that needs to be slapped upside some people's heads. What is being done by our leadership in this country today is just as perverse and offensive as what it is being represented by in this video.

Public Speech: Michael Papantonio - The Mainstream Media is Dead

GoLeft Tv describe themselves like this:

GoLeft.tv is an innovative, web-based television and multimedia center featuring political, social and entertainment news and commentary from a Progressive angle, advocating a more enlightened, intelligent view of America and the world.

Michael Papantonio is one of the founders of GoLeft TV. He is a public advocate and a talk show host on Air America Radio. The above video is from their archives and it is a public speech that Michael gave to Canadians about their media. He goes over the failings of the American media over the last 29 years and warns Canadians that it is time to draw a line in the sand.

I think this is a very powerful video because it explains exactly what motivates me and the other contributors to this blog. Our American news is dead. It has been killed by various deregulations and the eliminations of standards of fairness. What we have today is a dog and pony show pretending to be the news. With some exception, one is lucky these days if you get 5 minutes worth of good information out of a 1 hour broadcast.

News: Michael Moore Calls out CNN

It is a snowballs day in hell that you will see a clip from CNN on this blog but that day just arrived and doubled up because this is extraordinary.

CNN aired this hit piece on Michael Moore's latest movie Sicko:





They then, unwisely, had Michael Moore on live after playing it to get his response. Boy did he respond. He went ballistic on them and said pretty much everything I ever wanted to say to the mainstream media. God bless Michael Moore.




As promised, Michael also provided his own fact checkers for CNN's report and he put the results on his website.

Documentary: Aarron Russo - America from freedom to Fascism

Aaron Russo is bes known as Bette Midlers manager and the producer of the feature films: The Rose and Trading Places. In this documentary he explores some pretty disturbing accusations about the American income tax and banking system. I'm not quite sure what to make of this movie except that it really disturbed me and made me wonder if we really are all living in The Matrix. This one is a bit long but it is definately an eye opener.

Music Video: TIMZ - Iraq

An Iraqi American rapper defending his old hood in rhyme. Not something you see every day. This video originated on YouTube where there is now a collection of videos documenting TIMZ's activism.
