FTR #747 Bringin’ It All Back Home

GOP doing to Obama what CIA did to Allende in Chile; Repub­li­cans appear ready to destroy U.S., global economies to gain power; Bush admin­is­tra­tion deficits delib­er­ately struc­tured to force end of New Deal social pro­grams; Tea Party fas­cists pro­vid­ing “boots on the ground” for this effort.

FTR #744 The Shape of Things to Come

Pan­ul­ti­mate exam­ple of “off­shore,” the seasted­ding move­ment sees “free­dom and democ­racy” as incom­pat­i­ble.

FTR #743 Interview (#8) with Russ Baker, Author of “Family of Secrets”

More Information on Major Bashinsky’s “non Suicide”

COMMENT: Fol­low­ing up on FTR #742, the inci­sive blog Legal Schnau­zer has set forth still more evi­dence that Major Bashin­sky did NOT kill him­self. In addi­tion to the intelligence-insulting descrip­tion of the cir­cum­stances of Bashinsky’s death, it now turns out the World War II era pis­tol with which Major allegedly killed him­self is a [...]

Analy­sis: Prob­lem not solved

COMMENT: With the death of Osama bin Laden, much has (of course) been writ­ten about the event. Ana­lyz­ing what it did or didn’t mean or what will or won’t hap­pen as a result, com­men­ta­tors have ignored some unpleas­ant truths.

New York Times’ “Trump Card”: Covering Up GOP “Birther” Idiocy

While Everyone Was Paying Attention to the Latest “Lone Nut” . . .

COMMENT: Future posts will ana­lyze the lat­est “not polit­i­cally moti­vated”, “lone nut” polit­i­cal assas­sin in Ari­zona. [Ini­tial press accounts dis­cussed more than one sus­pect.] What has received lit­tle notice is the death in a strange-sounding car fire of Ash­ley Tur­ton,  the wife of Obama’s liai­son to the now-GOP con­trolled House of Rep­re­sen­ta­tives, Dan Tur­ton.
