I am criticized quite a bit for the things that I say.  I am threatened...and it is not my intention to be offensive to anyone. 

The preceding words could very well be contained in quotation marks and be attributed to General Boykin but just as he has said them I have said them also... No this is not some kind of contest of who said what first or 'he said, he said' and its not just a simple matter of being on the same page; another oft used acronym in today's political climate.  But if I may plagiarize his concept, "My twenty-one years in the Air Force was really just preparation for the battle that I'm in today; the battle that we're all in today." that should emphasize the importance of the matter at hand...the battle that America is in today.  I am called to be a watchman.  I have seen the sword coming...and I have blown the trumpet.  For what are you accountable?  Will you rise up?  ~ Norman E.

Breaking News: Leon Panetta...A communist Spy?

This is indeed a breaking story and it also backs up my suspicions concerning Panetta and his Marxist overseer in the White House.  The headline over at Trevor Loudon's New Zeal reads: "Obama's CIA Director Linked To Spies Through Communist Party Figure" and if that isn't enough to make you worry about what's happening to your country then you better wake the hell up! ~ Norman E.

Leon Panetta Hugh DeLacy: Panetta Friendship with Hugh DeLacy of Communist Party USA

June 10, 2011 By Maggie

Trevor Loudon at New Zeal has another breaking story, reporting CIA director Leon Panetta’s (current candidate for Secretary of Defense) former close relationship with Communist Hugh DeLacy. DeLacy died in 1986 at the age of 76. DeLacy served in the U.S. House from Washington State from 1945 to 1947. His membership in the Communist Party USA was undisclosed, just as was his friendship with Panetta.

Leon Panetta

Pullout Quote:

“it is clear that Panetta, whose nomination to be CIA director was considered mystifying even to those in the intelligence business, has been a key component of a network of left-wing activists and socialist organizations for over two decades.

In 1977 Panetta was serving his first term in the U.S. House of Representatives. According to Loudon, that same year Panetta wrote a letter to DeLacy and:

…offered a summary of a report on U.S. military operations that Panetta said was “unavailable for distribution.” Panetta concludes the March 24, 1977 letter: “If there is anything I can do for you in the future, Hugh, please feel free to call on me.”

Cliff Kincaid is working on this story with Trevor Loudon. Read a letter at Kincaid’s USASurvival blog showing Panetta asking for clemency for a man convicted of killing two FBI agents – both first degree murder. Peltier remains incarcerated.
Leon Panetta’s confirmation hearing for Secretary of Defense began yesterday before the Senate Armed Services Committee. Now is the time to contact your Senators before the full-Senate vote, and even before the Committee votes, likely next Tuesday. We know the Senate body gets little news in their isolated Land of Oz. We must make sure they have the details. Go to New Zeal Blog for all the information and please, let the following motivate your phone calls, emails and faxes – quickly:

…Loudon reviewed the Hugh DeLacy papers at the University of Washington, while Kincaid examined hearings conducted on “Communist Political Subversion” by the House Committee on UnAmerican Activities and “Un-American Activities in California” by the California Senate Fact-Finding Committee on Un-American Activities.
“When this information is examined in context,” Loudon and Kincaid stated, “it is clear that Panetta, whose nomination to be CIA director was considered mystifying even to those in the intelligence business, has been a key component of a network of left-wing activists and socialist organizations for over two decades. These individuals and groups include not only Hugh DeLacy and his communist associates but the communist-dominated Progressive Party, Democratic Socialists of America and the neo-Marxist New American Movement. Panetta, in short, was a player in the network that sponsored the political career of a young Barack Obama in Chicago. This helps explain why Panetta was picked, seemingly out of nowhere, for the CIA job.”

The Washington Post says Senators on the Armed Services Committee “gushed” over the outstanding job Panetta has done. The gushing also came from Republicans, or at least one, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) (said he “couldn’t wait” to vote for him – will get his chance next Tuesday.)

The Transportation Opportunities Act...an act to tax you by the mile!

Obama Moves To Tax Cars By the Mile

Getting us out of our cars is a major goal of Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development. How do they do that – make it impossible to own or drive a car.
$5 per gallon of gas is one good way to stop your driving.

Taxing every mile you drive is another.
The Obama Administration is already well on its way to the $5 per gallon mark, pretending that forcing alternative energy policy is some kind of an answer to high gas prices. It’s not.
But now, the Administration is quietly organizing plans to tax automobile drivers based on how many miles they drive.
Of course the Obama crowd denies any such thing. Classic.
The plan is part of Obama’s “Transportation Opportunities Act.” Don’t you love the 1984 newspeak title?
The plan that is being considered and developed is this:

• Create a new federal bureaucracy inside the Federal Highway Administration called the “Surface Transportation Revenue Alternatives Office, with a budget of $300 million – to start.
• The office would then be assigned the task to “study framework that defines the functionality of a mileage based user fee system and other systems.”
• Install electronic equipment on every car to determine how many miles are driven.
• Create a “Vehicle Miles Traveled” Tax (VMT).

The push to tax mileage is part of the over-all Sustainable Development agenda to raise the cost of energy to force us to “conserve.” There are now moves to put a tax on the use of toilet paper and plastic bags.
Sustainable Development is part of an international agenda to force us to sacrifice and transform American society through a top-down centrally-controlled economy – in short – Socialism.
During the presidential campaign in 2008, Obama told us that international policy would be his driving policy force when he said “We can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times…and then just expect that other countries re going to say OK…That’s not leadership. That’s not going to happen.”
Of course, NOW the Obama Administration denies the whole thing. His spokesmen say the mileage tax is just a “study framework.” But the Senate Budget Committee, chaired by Senator Kent Conrad (D.N.D.) issued a report suggesting the mileage tax as a way to generate more revenue.
After that report was released, the Obama Administration issued the Transportation Opportunities Act. Section 2218 of that bill includes the mileage tax idea.
Obama’s people say it’s just an “idea” being considered.”
Remember Obama’s first choice for Energy Czar, Van Jones, an avowed communist, who said, “The green economy will start off as a small subset. And we are going to push it and push it and push it…until it becomes the engine for transforming the whole society.”
“Americans must know now that these “ideas” are NOT just random air”
THERE WILL BE A MILEAGE TAX IMPOSED ON YOU WITHIN THE NEXT TWO YEARS. COUNT ON IT.
That’s why it’s urgent that you and I take immediate action to kill this “idea” right now!
If you are taxed for every mile you drive will you feel as free to go where you like? Or will you be more inclined to stay home? This is an assault on your freedom.
Do you want yet another government meter on your car measuring where you go? Big Brother spying has no place in a free society.
Action to take:

1. Call the White House and tell them you are outraged by such a plan. Tell them NO on a mileage tax. We must convey that message to them right now. Let them know it will not be tolerated. Whitehouse Switchboard: 202-456-1111
2. Call your member of Congress with the same message. NO mileage tax. House switchboard: (202) 225-3121
3. Call both of your United States Senators with the same message. NO mileage tax. Senate Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

If we don’t kill this idea now – in the planning stages it will become reality.
Send this message to 10 more people and urge friends and neighbors to call. They will all be affected by this outrageous tax on yet another part of our lives.
Remember! TEA Party means = Taxed Enough Already!
