The 9/11 - 7/7 ConnectionSun, 02 Nov 2008 01:48:18 -0800 by quietman1kZbigniew Brzezinsky former advisor under JFK, LBJ, Jimmy Carter and co- chairman of the NSATF under Herbert Walker Bush's administration."The Trilateral Commission was founded by the persistent maneuvering of David Rockefeller and Zbigniew Brzezinski. Rockefeller, [then] chairman of the ultra powerful Chase Manhattan Bank, a director of many major multinational corporations and 'endowment funds' has long been a central figure in the mysterious Council on Foreign Relations. Brzezinski, a brilliant prognosticator of one-world idealism, has been a professor at Columbia University and the author of several books that have served as 'policy guidelines' for the CFR. Brzezinski served as the (Trilateral) commission's executive director from its inception in 1973 until late 1976 when he was appointed by President Carter as assistant to the president for national security affairs." -Anthony C. Sutton and Patrick M. Wood, Trilateral Over WashingtonSome notable members of the Trilateral Commission include George Bush, Dick and Lynne Cheney, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, Walter Mondale, David Rockefeller, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Henry Kissinger, David Gergen, Richard Holbrooke, Madeleine Albright, Robert McNamara, Paul Volcker, Alan Greenspan and Paul Wolfowitz. US Senators Diane Feinstein, Robert Taft Jr., Charles Robb, William Cohen, and John Glenn, Congressmen, Ambassadors, Secretaries of Treasury, State and many other political figures are Trilateralists.

A show where I and the viewers can express opinions and thoughts of Past and Present events of the world on Youtube.com If You have a Opinion or a idea for the "The Opinion Show." Please type in at the commits.I'M LEARNING NEW THINGS AS THE DAYS GO BY AND LOVING IT.DONT FORGET TO COMMENT AND RATE._______________ ____________________ _____ ______________ (Ep.13-S2.) "Tonight's Topic": Sarah Palin.Sarah Louise Heath Palin ( born February 11, 1964) is the governor of the U.S. state of Alaska and the Republican Party's vice-presidential nominee for the United States presidential election of 2008.Palin was a member of the Wasilla, Alaska city council from 1992 to 1996 and mayor from 1996 to 2002. After an unsuccessful campaign for lieutenant governor of Alaska in 2002, she chaired the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission from 2003 to 2004. She was elected governor of Alaska in November 2006 by defeating the incumbent governor in the Republican primary and then a former two-term Democratic governor in the general election. She is the first female governor of Alaska, and the youngest person elected to the position.On August 29, 2008, presidential candidate John McCain announced he had chosen Sarah Palin as his running mate in the 2008 U.S. presidential election. Palin was formally nominated at the 2008 Republican National Convention in Saint Paul, Minnesota. She is the first woman to run on the Republican Party's presidential ticket and the first Alaskan nominee of either major party.On August 29, 2008, in Dayton, Ohio, Republican presidential candidate John McCain announced that he had chosen Palin as his running mate. According to Jill Hazelbaker, a spokeswoman for John McCain, "John McCain first met Governor Sarah Palin at the National Governors Association meeting in Washington in February of 2008 and came away extraordinarily impressed." He called Palin on August 24 to discuss the possibility of having her join him on the ticket. On August 27, she visited McCain's vacation home near Sedona, Arizona, where she was offered the position of vice-presidential candidate. Palin was the only prospective running mate who had a face-to-face interview with McCain to discuss joining the ticket that week. Nonetheless, Palin's selection was a surprise to many as speculation had centered on other candidates, such as Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, United States Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, and former Pennsylvania Governor Tom Ridge. Palin is the second woman to run on a major U.S. party ticket. The first was Geraldine Ferraro, the Democratic vice-presidential nominee in 1984, who ran with former vice-president Walter Mondale. On September 3, 2008, Palin delivered a 40-minute acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention that was well-received and watched by more than 40 million viewers. Several conservative commentators met Palin in the summer of 2007 when they sailed on cruises that docked in Juneau. Some of them, such as Bill Kristol, urged McCain to pick Palin, arguing that her presence on the ticket would provide a boost in enthusiasm among the religious right wing of the Republican party, while her status as an unknown on the national scene would also be a positive factor for McCain's campaign. Since Palin was largely unknown outside Alaska before her selection by McCain, her personal life, positions, and political record drew intense media attention and scrutiny. Some Republicans felt that Palin was being subjected to unreasonable media coverage, a sentiment Palin noted in her acceptance speech. A poll taken immediately after the Republican convention found that slightly more than half of Americans believed that the media was "trying to hurt" Palin with negative coverage.

| Keith Olbermann interviews Joe Biden after president debateTue, 14 Oct 2008 11:39:52 -0700 by AntiConformist911Biden unveiled a stump speech that was a blunt and aggressive attack on McCain?on his economic policies and his ties to Bush. But ladies and gentlemen, I know John well. John does not disagree with George Bush on any single substantive issue. Biden used that line of attack during the debate with Palin, on October 2nd, which was seen by seventy-three million viewers?more than watched either of the Obama-McCain debates. He continued to link McCain to George W. Bush, while praising Obama and promoting his agenda?the consummate Vice-Presidential candidate. The Republicans to whom Biden is closest are Senator Richard Lugar, of Indiana, the ranking Republican on the Foreign Relations Committee, and Chuck Hagel, of Nebraska. (Both senators are close to Obama, too.) Lugar would undoubtedly be an important ally, but Hagel is retiring this year. As a longtime chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Biden was at the center of many of the hard-fought debates of the culture wars, and many conservatives still resent him for leading the fight against Robert Bork, Ronald Reagans nominee for the Supreme Court. Bork, a strict constructionist, expressed his views freely, and Biden had little trouble using Borks past opinions to embarrass him.Yet, despite his decades in Washington, Biden has never become a symbol of liberal perfidy for the right. He was once regarded as a lightweight, even by some Democrats, but he has earned a reputation as a serious legislator. Hes a superb strategist, John Kerry said. He has worked through some of the most contentious issues in the last thirty years, many of them in a senior position on Foreign Relations or Judiciary. Biden is the rare senator whose ideology has been formed inside the Senate rather than outside it. Im going to say something presumptuous, Biden said to me. The reason Ive been relatively successful is that I have never questioned the motive of other senators, and thats instinctively Barack. Barack doesnt start off, Well, you disagree, you must be a, you know, an S.O.B. or you must not care about the poor or youre sexist or youre racist or youre a whatever. He doesnt think that way. Biden continued, veering slightly into stream-of-consciousn ess, I think it comes from a guy who is, you know, whos half white and half black. You know, this idea?he is a black man because society wont let him be anything else. But hes as much his mothers child as he is his fathers child. And heres a guy raised in an environment that was relatively normal in the sense that there was no?he wasnt able to be squirrelled away somewhere, or he didnt live in a homogeneous neighborhood where he was part of the homogeneity. You know what I mean?Biden said that Obama had asked him to start thinking about their early objectives. Barack is the only guy when we were out there campaigning and debating each other who I knew thought about our agenda?his agenda, he said. I thought about my agenda. We thought alike. Biden was impressed that Obamas proposals seemed to be written with an eye toward passage in Congress. (For instance, the lack of a mandate in Obamas health-care proposal could make the idea more palatable to Republicans.) During the primaries, Biden often played the role of policy grownup, the candidate who liked to chide the unrealistic plans of his rivals. According to a senior Biden aide, after a debate in which Bill Richardson, the New Mexico governor, argued that he could have all hundred and sixty thousand American troops out of Iraq in a matter of months?something that is logistically beyond reach, according to most observers?Biden approached Richardson backstage and told him that the plan was impossible. Richardson didnt seem concerned. Tony Blinken, Bidens top foreign-policy adviser, says that when Obama and Biden talked about the Vice-Presidency Biden made it clear that he didnt want the job to be the ceremonial, go-to-funerals-and-w eddings thing. Blinken added that Biden also made it very clear to Obama that he didnt want to be a shadow Secretary of State. It was surprising to hear that Biden intends to stay out of the way of the State Department, but it suggests that he understands what might be called the Mondale Rule: that the most powerful Vice-Presidents are those who take on the fewest assignments. Biden asked Obama for little more than access and influence. http://www.newyorker .com/reporting/2008/ 10/20/081020fa_fact_ lizza?currentPage=al l Related: barack obama joe biden john mccain sarah palin iraq war speech interview debate oil iran foreign policy experience bush | |
