The Gretch Who Saved the War on Christmas - The holiday season wouldn't feel the same without people going out of their way to be offended by nothing.  (08:58):

Bill O'Reilly campaigns against the secularization of Christmas by putting those who wish 'Happy Holidays' on the naughty list....

Above at 3 mins 45 seconds: "Seasons Greetings and happy holidays, Bill, does not offend Christians" : Reply by Bill O'Reilly, "Yes, it does."

 i.e. "Christians" in the US are offended by everything. One might think they might boo the Golden Rule (you know, the rule where Jesus says 'Love thy neighbor')

O Wait! Too Late...


"Let the record show that on January 16, 2012, the good people of South Carolina booed the Golden Rule." ― Jon Stewart  [Note: Golden Rule = ‘Love your neighbor as yourself'. Matthew 22:39]

Headlines - Secular Central - Bill O'Reilly unearths a devastating year-old, six-second long Daily Show joke that threatens Christmas and Christianity itself.  (5:33) :

Terror Blues - According to gathered intelligence, homeland security money would be better spent on dog armor than on air conditioning for garbage trucks.  (04:07) :

The War on Christmas: Friendly Fire Edition - For Fox News, the war on Christmas has become a rote observance devoid of all its original meaning.  (07:23) :

The War on Christmas: Friendly Fire Edition - Bill O'Reilly's PhilosophyBill O'Reilly hands atheists another thing they can't f**king believe.  (02:48) : 

Notes:

At 33 secs where Bill O Reilly says Christianity is not a Religion its a philosophy he was copying me here. The only difference is that I can prove it. i.e. In ancient history 2 seperate forms of Buddhism emerged. One was a philosophical one and the other a religious one. The Philosophical one is the "Mahayana" or "the Greater Vehicle". It is the Southern Buddhism which no longer exists in Northern India, Tibet or Japan that Bill O Reilly could be referring to... or maybe he's just doing some sort of frame, saying that I'm lying & I'm a part of religion. If so I don't know why. I'm in Pakistan. People are peaceful here. I guess no one has seen the actual statistics of deaths in America? (see article extract below)

Anyways, I have explained Zen Buddhism (the philosophical path of Buddhism) in more detail here.

At 2 mins Bill O Reilly says Chirstianity has no organized form. Now he's talking about the Muslims! I posted this to facebook somewhere, but I can never find anything on facebook anymore. Anyways, Bill O Reilly must not be Catholic if he doesn't know about the Roman Catholic Church. I wonder who he thinks the Pope is? Himself?

Article Extract on JUST death by guns (murder) in America:

How Many People Have Been Killed by Guns Since Newtown?  Slate partners with @GunDeaths for an interactive, crowdsourced tally of the toll firearms have taken since Dec. 14.By Chris Kirk and Dan Kois

Update, June 19, 2013: As time goes on, our count gets further and further away from the likely actual number of gun deaths in America—because roughly 60 percent of deaths by gun are due to suicides, which are very rarely reported. When discussing this issue, please note that our number is by design not accurate and represents only the number of gun deaths that the media can find out about contemporaneously. Part of the purpose of this interactive is to point out how difficult it is to get accurate real-time numbers on this issue.

Using the most recent CDC estimates for yearly deaths by guns in the United States, it is likely that as of today, 6/28/2013, roughly 16,486 people have died from guns in the United States since the Newtown shootings. Compare that number to the number of deaths reported in the news in our interactive below, and you can see how undertold the story of gun violence in America actually is.

Kabulvision - The Florida Family Association believes that "All-American Muslim" is educationally harmful to America's belief structure.  (05:14) :

The right makes it clear that Muslims ARE terrorists. If they are depicted in any other way they don't like it (or at least, Fox News & thier GOP leaders, don't like it as it will require a retraction). If most of the Muslim World turns out to be like these boring TLC Muslims then the GOP/Fox-News has a serious problem... and makes ALL of thier math fuzzy. The logic used, 'We don't want people to think all Muslims are peaceful' is like Muslims saying we 'Don't want people to think all Christians are peaceful' ... in some hypothetical future where the cycle of global influence swings back to the Muslims (would be about 50 years after China reachs full supper power status) ... based on thier encountering "Christian" violence in the past.

Kabulvision - A New Lowe Aasif Mandvi explains why, without Lowe's, the jihadist goal is unachievable.  (04:26):

With all the strange precautions, such as 3 ounce shampoo etc. What the GOP is saying is that these terrorists can use anything. Even the petrol & fertilizer used by Timothy VcVeigh in OKC becomes 'sophisticated terror equipment' by comparison. Thus all home building stuff should be shut down as well! (or so Asif Mandvi argues)

The Elephant in the Room - Jason Jones heads to Florida to help Nezar Hamze, a Muslim Republican, gain the acceptance of the Broward County GOP. (05:21) :

Apparently, being 'against hate' doesn't apply to assumed associations.

How Do You Solve a Problem Like Sharia? - Peter King may have ties to the IRA, but he believes that Muslim Americans should be investigated for failing to denounce terrorist organizations.  (05:42) :

Peter King had ties to the IRA, AN ACTUAL TERRORIST ORGANIZATION, and Fox News supports him. Especially Bill O Reilly.

Who is Peter King?

Article 1 on Peter King:
But according to experts in counterterrorism law, if the tough-on-terror policies King trumpets today had taken effect a few decades earlier, King himself might have been subject to prosecution. Over parts of three decades, from his days as an aspiring politician in Long Island through his early years in Congress, King was one of the nation's most outspoken supporters of the Irish Republican Army and a prolific fundraiser for the Irish Northern Aid Committee (NorAid), allegedly the IRA's American fundraising arm. The IRA waged a paramilitary campaign against the British presence in Northern Ireland for decades before peace accords were signed in 1998. Part of that effort included bombings and shootings that resulted in civilian deaths in England and Northern Ireland. During the period of King's involvement, the US government accused both NorAid and the IRA of links to terrorism.

Article 2 on Peter King: "The British government is a murder machine," King said. He described the IRA, which mastered the car bomb as an instrument of urban terror, as a "legitimate force." And he compared Gerry Adams, the leader of Sinn Fein, the IRA's political wing, to George Washington.

Wish You Weren't Here - Obama uses NASA to reach out to the Muslim world, while plans to build more mosques in America spark outrage.  (07:36) :

Fox News immediately connects any attack to Muslims and begins to anchor it to them. The Boston Bomber turning out to be Muslim was their biggest propaganda success in recent days. The simple reality is that they will always blame Muslims. If you play the probabilities AND assume it's not a Muslim involved in a terror attack, then you'll be right more often than not.

Note: 'He looked Nordic'. 'Maybe it was a good disguise' as reports can be mistaken during the trauma of an attack. Calls Norway's terror attack. By focusing on death and terror on Muslims mass hysteria is created.

Memo: Containing Radical Islam: Now all over the world, extreme Muslims believe they're allowed to kill people with whom they disagree. They even kill each other. Thousands of people are dying and the world's response is largely silence. Remember, the Sudanese government is allowing killers to slaughter hundreds of thousands of civilians in Darfur. As China blocks action in the U.N., the world just stands by and watches.

There is no question that Muslim killers are a threat to the entire world. Iran is funding and arming Hezbollah, which may start a war in Lebanon any time. Pakistan is allowing the Taliban sanctuary so it can kill Afghans and Americans at will. And Al Qaeda is actively seeking ways to kill just about everybody. With Pakistan already having nukes and Iran on the way to getting them, you'd have to be a complete moron not to understand the danger here.

On Topic - Colbert Case Files - Tea Party Stephen tracks the rise of the Tea Party movement from Hannity and Beck to Palin and O'Donnell.  (03:57) :

Fox News created the Tea Party and then distanced themselves. Why?

Exclusive - The Qu'osby Show - The Pilot Aasif Mandvi stars in "The Qu'osby Show," a sitcom about a NASCAR-loving family that eats pork and dances to Toby Keith.  (05:25):

Note: Half my family is Christian & the other half is Muslim. I'm a Zen Buddhist with an interest the mystical philosophy of Sufism. I like some rap, less country music though if I'm sitting somewhere and people are playing music, unfamiliar country music may be more pleasant for me than unfamiliar rap. I'm mostly interested in Rock & Heavy Metal. That doesn't help, of course. Not to mention my long standing interest in Yoga, Hypnosis & Meditation.

GOP's creating paranoia around rap music to the point where chick and lettuce in rap form become threats!...

To put the violence of rap lyrics in perspective I thought I would just make a little list of songs with violent themes from a completely different music genre that hasn’t received any negative publicity from Fox News & Friends.

Here is another example of a political echo chamber using multiple people for ONE view and on ONE channel. (And proof of demonization of the 'left' by this 'conservative' echo chamber):

GOP -Special Victims Unit Conservative pundits hate it when liberals play the victim card because it distracts from the real victims: conservatives.  (06:24):

Above: 'Conservative' Echo Chamber through Murdoch's Network (using multiple books on one view, talking about one perspective ONLY on a network owned by one man, i.e. the new republican party is an invention using multiple media channels all owned by the same group. Ironically, or perhaps, intelligently, the 'left' (i.e. the networks NOT owned by Murdoch) are grouped together as having a separate agenda thereby creating the 'Us vs. them' dynamic.

Fox News's Class Warfare "Hypnosis" - Using %s & Numerical Figures Interchangeably To Fit Their Personal Agenda

World of Class Warfare - The Poor's Free Ride Is Over The government could raise $700 billion by either taking half of everything earned by the bottom 50% or by raising the marginal tax rate on the top two percent.  (06:32):

Notes:

A. "We gotta start somewhere... that's a million dollars (that we could save)" - in contrast to the 700 billion we could save to reduce the deficit from the rich and unfairly untaxed - i.e. They start with the assumption that this is the only way, so dumb uneducated people who are in love with the anchors, buy it.

B . From fox news: Dont tax the rich but 'broaden the tax base'. Or in other words, don't inconvenience me with a 2% tax increase, make the poor suffer by increasing their tax burden.

C. Taxing the majority (poor) instead of taxing the minority (super rich by comparison) this is the very definition of despotism.

D. Heritage institute (Koch Brother funded) are trying to create the image of poor being wealthy cause they have normal second world amenities, it's not even first world anymore! (i.e. this will lower standard of living in the USA even further).

E. Demonizing (ex. irresponsible animals) the part of society that is suffering from the excess and scamming of certain individuals on wall street etc.

Exclusive - Ron Paul Extended Interview Pt. 1 Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul believes his political message is a threat to the establishment.  (04:55):

Notes:

1. 'Ron Paul is not an electable figure' this was the statement by everyone in the media at one time or another. Since I was fighting for Ron Paul for President when Rick Santorum dropped out and we started gaining on them... and Romney was declared winner, despite several other things that no one seems to remember,  I have a whole blog explaining his views. He is not as bad as the GOP owned media makes him out to be.

2. I remember one article talking about how facing Ron Pal was like facing a chasm as big as the Grand Canyon. It's true. Most people think it terms of wedge issues to win an election. At the end it comes down to picking up the people on the wedgiest of issues. For some strange reason, denying rape in the US military became a wedge issue at Fox News. Here are some other interesting correlations (notice that many correlations together build a case for a possible cause and effect relationship)
