House Teabaggers Don't Fear McCain's Pending Attack... Not Even A Little
No one in the House Republican caucus thinks the man who befriended Muammar
Qaddafi and lolled away his evenings at the Qaddafi family ranch, is any
kind of threat to their political careers.
Beltway Republicans expect McCain to blow any minute now-- and that the
target of his wrath will be the far right of the House Republican caucus
this time-- teabaggers, Know Nothings and the blatantly racist end of the
party. But they're laughing at the 2008 presidential candidate. His
opposition-- the louder and more vitriolic, the better-- makes them
stronger with an electoral base that ... more »

Two years ago, RBC Capital Markets started “following” Postmedia, Canada’s
largest newspaper company, and issuing reports for investors.

As the nation sweltered in front of its TV sets, there's a game of
political tennis taking place far away from Centre Court. The Blairites
thought they'd scored an ace when dodgy doings were uncovered in Falkirk.
Unite's Len McCluskey returned the ball with a few, sharp volleys but his
stroke was hamstrung by his line that Unite was "within the rules". As a
result, they have mostly gone wide. With their work done, Ed Miliband has

The whole world changed
Are you the same?
If not,
Who are you now?
What do you want?
Know thy Soul
Be very clear
Person, place and thing
Will respond
In kind
In time
Longing to kiss that light
So shake off what is not you
Be clean
And ready to be seen
Fulfillment is near
Tho in the present
What shall I say?
The things you want
Are excited
And asking…
When will you be here?

Considering the source on Snowden
Honestly, I'm rather tired of the Edward Snowden story but another slow

suppose it was inevitable that his motives would come into question.
On that point I agree with Nate Silver's tweet from a few days ago:

people, but about whether the source's account is reliable and accurate.
That being said, I did find this hit piece on Snowden mildly interesting.

We're doing the flip side of last week: what politician(s) are you most

As I explained in the conservative question, I'm not talking about, say,
support for Reagan or Bush before you became a liberal. I'm looking for
either politicians you supported who turned out to be other than what you
thought at the time, or politicians you had to hold your nose to support
(yeah, I know, some of you went to this in last week's flip side, but I was
already planning to do it as this week's question...).

when they were young and liberal) -- I'm interested in either politicians
who disappointed you by being something other than what you thought at the
time, or (equally interesting to me) politicians you didn't like at the
time but thought were the best choice for strategic reasons.

Sunspot AR1785 ‘grows’ 25,000 Miles In Size Over 24-Hour Period

15 Signs That The Quality Of Jobs In America Is Going Downhill Really Fast

Trying to find a job in America today can be an incredibly frustrating

and there is intense competition for just about any job that is open. But
it wasn't always like this. When I was in high school, I was immediately

It's official. He's Washington's man in Cairo. More on that below.
Ousting Morsi unleashed widespread violence. Pitched battles erupted. Both
sides clashed with each other.
On July 6, Russia Today reported Friday's toll caused 36 deaths. One or
more others followed. Over 1,100 were injured. Unknown numbers were
arrested.
Neither side's yielding so far. Egypt's Supreme Council of the Armed Forces
(SCAF) is notoriously brutal. Mercy isn't in its vocabulary. It conspired
with Washington against Morsi.
Popular outrage made him damaged goods. He's gone. He's under hou... more »

Listener complaint partially upheld but BBC programme still available | BBC Watch
'... there is no point in the BBC wasting public resources to address
audience complaints if, in cases in which those complaints are found to be
valid, the output concerned is neither subsequently amended to reflect that
fact, or removed.'
The BBC's hatred of Israel knows no bounds, anybody fancy complaining about
this directly?

Courts Rule Vaccines Containing MMR and Thimerosal Caused Autism and Brain Damage
Dees Illustration Joe Martino
All information containing new and unprecedented conclusions begins by
being violently opposed by those who create the prior information and those
who subscribe heavily to it. This is very much the case with the link
between Autism Spectrum Disorder and vaccines; mainly the MMR vaccine and
other thimerosal-containing vaccines.
It is clear that the stance from mainstream science is that there is no
link between vaccines and autism. You can find more about that here. But
for many people this does not dispel all concern. Dr. Hooker, PhD, PE says
that th... more »
The "Primitives" Have Got It Right
In a recent article, Noam Chomsky asks the question we should all be
asking: "Who will defend the earth?" The people who are desperately
interested in the answer to that question are people we have traditionally
thought of as "backward." But, Chomsky writes, they understand what is at
stake:
That the Earth now desperately needs defense from impending environmental
catastrophe is surely obvious to any rational and literate person. The
different reactions to the crisis are a most remarkable feature of current
history.
At the forefront of the defense of nature are those often called... more »
Lead Gardasil Vaccine Creator Confesses to Clear Conscience
Heather Callaghan
Media, medical and science claims love to push that untreated HPV (Human
Papilloma Virus) perhaps-maybe-someday can lead to cervical cancer. So far,
it can't be confirmed if getting Gardasil and Cervavix actually take
cervical cancer cases down. What's really shaky is the safety of a
seriously under-evaluated vaccine pushed on both young girls and boys who
may or may not become sexually active soon and may never contract HPV.
According to the manufacturers, the vaccine only addresses 4 out of 40 HPV
strains.
What is confirmed is that 44 girls have died after v... more »
Venezuela Grants Snowden Asylum
image source Stephen Lendman
On July 6, Russia Today headlined " 'Free from imperial persecution:'
Venezuela offers Snowden asylum."
Days earlier, President Nicolas Maduro said asylum would be "seriously"
considered if sought. Snowden deserves a "humanitarian medal," he added.
"If this young man is punished, nobody in the world will ever dare to tell
the truth," he stressed.
He's a man of his word. It's official. Maduro granted Snowden asylum. He
did so on Venezuela's Day of Independence.
On April 10, 1810, the First Republic of Venezuela was established.

11 Signs That Italy Is Descending Into A Full-Blown Economic Depression
Michael Snyder
When you get into too much debt, really bad things start to happen. Sadly,
that is exactly what is happening to Italy right now. Harsh austerity
measures are causing the Italian economy to slow down even more than it was
previously. And yet even with all of the austerity measures, the Italian
government just continues to rack up even more debt. This is the exact
same path that we watched Greece go down. Austerity causes government
revenues to drop which causes deficit reduction targets to be missed which
causes even more austerity measures to become necessary.

Insanity in the genes.
During the few years I contributed to the Biased-BBC blog the area that
particularly interested me was the BBC’s one-sided attitude towards all
Israel-related matters, and latterly the BBC’s naïve, misguided and flawed
interpretation of Arab Spring; from ecstatic live reporting from Tahrir
Square, to the ongoing Pollyannaish euphoria over the dawning of democracy
throughout the Arab World.
Those pieces are archived on that blog until another site revamp sends them
into cyber-oblivion, but they still seem relevant, despite everything that
has occurred since.

everyone should stay in their seats, a passenger told ABC News.
Within minutes, however, flames could be seen outside the plane's windows
and smoke was seeping into the cabin.
Lee Jang Hyung, 32, was sitting with his wife Lee Jee Young, 33, and his
toddler son who is 15 months old in the front row of the plane's economy

Adventures in responsible gun ownership
Ye gods. Adam Kokesh is a bonafide crackpot:
The libertarian activist Adam Kokesh who called for and then canceled an
armed march on Washington uploaded a YouTube video on July 4 that shows him
loading a shotgun in the center of Freedom Plaza, Washington, D.C, near the
White House. In the video, Kokesh cryptically warns, “We will not allow our
government to destroy our humanity. We are the final American revolution.
See you next Independence Day.”
You have to watch the video clip to appreciate the full scope of his
insanity. This guy just exudes teh crazy.

Tim Maudlin's right and (more often) muddled opinions about physics
Vincent has asked me what I thought about an interview with philosopher of

On the foundations of physics.
Regular TRF readers remember Maudlin as the main villain in the 2011 story
about Tom Banks and anti-quantum zealots which was ignited by a discussion
at Preposterous Universe (well, it was at Cosmic Variance at that time).
Yesterday, Maudlin mostly said the same wrong things as he did 1.5 years

THE SECRET HISTORY OF AIRPLANE SABOTAGE, by Sherman H. Skolnick
"THE SECRET HISTORY OF AIRPLANE SABOTAGE", Part One
by Sherman H. Skolnick 08/6/01
In November, 1972, Richard M. Nixon was re-elected President. One month
later, on behalf of the Nixon White House, America's secret political
police, the American Gestapo, the FBI, and the American CIA, arranged to
sabotage a commercial airplane headed for Chicago. On board were twelve
Watergate figures, including Dorothy Hunt, wife of the Watergate burglar,
E.Howard Hunt. They had reportedly blackmailed two million dollars out of
Nixon threatening, among other things, to publicize documents they had ... more »

Benghazi: Where Does Egypt Figure into All of This....?
This thing in Egypt isn't a coup, it's a counter-coup.
The installation of Morsi was entirely an expression of a covert operation

destabilise Nasser and other Pan-Arabist Socialists.
The "uprising" of 2011 was not authentic and it was not native - it was
