The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) is poised to fight New Jersey Senator Frank R. Lautenberg’s (D-NJ) legislation in the Senate which is designed to expand his gun prohibition agenda under the cloak of national security. Lautenberg’s “Denying Firearms and Explosives to Dangerous Terrorists Act of 2009” would place unprecedented authority in the hands of the Attorney General to deny someone their Second Amendment rights without having been convicted, or even charged, with any crime.

And Obama and the White House are looking the other way as Lautenberg seeks to ban guns from 1,000,000 US citizens on a secret FBI terrorist watch list. Obama has deliberately and repeatedly lied to America’s 90 million gun owners across the country when he insisted that he would not try to take away anyone’s firearms. Now Obama’s silence endorses Lautenberg’s latest attempt at banning guns.

Get Stoked Notes: our founding fathers designed an inspired way to tell the difference legally between criminals and victims. Obama is already defining himself globally as a dangerous utopian.

Jackson's pals feared for his life

FRANTIC Uri Geller found Michael Jackson so sedated on a trip to the UK he SCREAMED at him to wake up, The Sun can reveal.
Spoonbender Geller battled to rouse his pal after the superstar's aides fixed up a private visit to London Zoo - which had to be scrapped because he was so out of it.
Geller, 62, last night said of the hotel scare: "I was so worried about him. The trouble is nobody said 'no' to Michael and that was a big problem."
Fighting back his grief over the King of Pop's death, Geller revealed for the first time how he often found himself yelling at the singer over his addiction to prescription drugs.
Distraught

He said: "I told him - shouting and screaming - that he would die if things continued as they were."
His chilling revelations came as Jacko's Brit bodyguard also lifted the lid on the star's hell, exclusively telling The Sun how the singer:
FEARED the gruelling run of dates looming at London's O2 arena would be too much - telling him barely a week before he died: "I don't know how I'm going to do 50 shows."
VOWED in another phone call to quit the music business before it killed him - declaring: "I will not end up like Elvis."
PANICKED his entourage who had to beg him to eat - while he let "parasite" doctors pump him full of drugs.
HID the fact a woman nobody knew about was his secret long-term GIRLFRIEND.
Matt Fiddes - Jacko's former head of security and one of his most trusted aides - said of the mystery lover: "She wasn't a celebrity figure - absolutely not." He added sadly: "I imagine she is distraught right now."
Leeches

Martial arts expert Matt, 30, of Barnstaple, Devon, became one of Jacko's closest friends after meeting him thanks to Geller in 1998.
But he watched in horror as the singer hired a succession of private physicians.
Matt branded them "leeches" who had no qualms about dosing their troubled patient with sedatives to relax him - or "uppers" to lift his mood.
The cocktail of drugs left Jacko so weak he regularly slept for DAYS at a time and missed important business meetings. Disgusted Matt said:
The doctors would change every few months - but there was always one there who would often claim just to be a friend.

It went two ways with what they did with Michael. Either he'd be totally sedated or they'd give him something which would make him incredibly high.
When that happened he would chant or be very overexcitable. He had clearly been given some kind of amphetamine-based prescription medication. That concerned the heck out of me.
If you give someone a sedative and then they take an upper, your heart doesn't know where to go. But none of his aides questioned it. If you did that you were thrown out from the court of "yes" men surrounding him.

Recalling Jacko's 2003 trip to London, Matt said: "We had a suite at a top hotel.
"His doctor was there and in the evening he would make me double lock my hotel room door, which was right next to where Michael was.
"He would come in and clearly make sure I was out of the way while he was in the room with Michael.
"Then I would go and check on him again. He would be drowsy and out of it.
"He would manage to walk to his bedroom and fall asleep on the bed - but then he would not wake up until two or three in the afternoon."

The minder said packages full of prescription drugs would arrive at Jacko's hotel from the US marked for "Mr Sterling".
Other aliases included "Jack London" and "Omar Arnold".
He and Geller would routinely sweep the singer's room of syringes and needles - to try to protect him from his own medics.
Matt said of the London Zoo trip that aides booked for the animal-loving star:
Michael had been sedated the night before and just wouldn't wake up. Uri went into his room - and was screaming at Michael.

We were worried. We were shaking him, saying: "Come on - wake up." Uri was saying: "What are you doing? Have you taken something?" Then he came round drowsy - and said he was jetlagged. He came round, but not enough to take him to the zoo. Uri had to make up an excuse for him.

Dad-of-five Matt said lonely Jacko would spend hours holed up in hotel rooms watching his DVD collection of The Simpsons - in which he famously provided the voice for a character in one episode.
The singer would also listen over and over again to Britney Spears. Meanwhile he would barely eat.
Matt said: "He was totally and utterly isolated and he lived on scraps. He'd only eat a quarter of a normal meal.
"He had a small frame but getting him to eat was a big deal - one meal a day and you were lucky. Me and his friends used to literally sit him down and say, 'You eat that'."
Sexuality
He also told how Jacko phoned him to say: "I will not end up like Elvis. I'm going to work hard for a few years, retire, live good and spend the time with my children. I don't want to perform into old age."
In their last phone conversation - less than a fortnight ago - Jacko said of his dates at the O2: "I went to bed praying that I'd sold out ten shows and I was so happy.
"Then I woke up and I saw I'd sold out another 40. I don't know how I'm going to do 50 shows. But I'll find a way."

Matt refused to name Jacko's girlfriend - but said if the singer had been more open about his private life it could have put paid to rumours about his sexuality.
The minder said: "He had his own way of dealing with that - and that unfortunately gave people the wrong impression."
He said of the drugs Jacko was continually prescribed: "Doctors have blood on their hands, and I hope police bring them to justice.

"I've been close to Michael's brother Jermaine for years. We tried everything to get Michael away from these leeches and we just couldn't do it."
Geller said: "I didn't live with Michael, but like Matt, the things I did witness were simply horrifying - and destroyed my hope for his future."

Federal Drug Agents Asked to Join Michael Jackson Death Probe

By VIC WALTER and RICHARD ESPOSITO
July 1, 2009
Federal drug agents have been asked to join the investigation into Michael Jackson's death, ABC News has learned. Until now, the probe into the pop star's death has been managed by the LAPD alone.

The Drug Enforcement Administration's diversion division, which looks into issues of doctor shopping, over shopping, and pill mills, and has regulatory authority over prescription drugs, is now involved with the investigation, two separate sources tell ABC News. Further details are expected to emerge.

The DEA issued an official statement on the investigation that shed little light onto any role they might play in assisting the LAPD.

"We routinely offer assistance to any agency regarding the Federal Controlled Substance act, however at this time we have nothing further to comment about the death of Michael Jackson," the statement said.

A number of prescriptions were found in the Jackson residence, ABC News has learned, that are part of the LAPD probe.

Statute of Limitations Reform for Sex Abuse Victims

Source: "http://writ.news.findlaw.com/hamilton/20090611.html/

By MARCI A. HAMILTON

Thursday, June 11, 2009


When the California legislature passed amendments to its statute of limitations on child sex abuse in 2002, no one knew that its members were initiating a revolution for child sex abuse survivors.

In California, over 1,000 survivors came forward (about 850 from the Catholic Church). No one knew, though, what the benefits or costs of the window would be. It was a large experiment. Now that the claims have been litigated or settled, however, there are important facts that we have learned for the first time, or that reinforced facts unearthed by previous studies:


First: In California, the names of over 300 perpetrators who had never before been named publicly were released. And the bishops' role in placing children's needs below public appearances was also elaborated. Making that information public is a benefit to every parent and child.

Second, many survivors need decades to come forward. The fact that over 1,000 survivors (from a variety of groups) took advantage of the window confirms what social science studies have shown repeatedly: It is a psychological fact that child sex abuse victims are disabled from revealing the abuse at the time they suffer it and for many years thereafter. However, if given an opportunity to come forward years later, they do want to – and are finally able to – do so.


Third, until the window was in place, society had been making public policy based on too little information. The window revealed that the laws we have focused upon, like sex offender registries and pedophile-free zones, have assumed we know who the predators are. One of the greatest shocks in the last ten years is to learn that we only know about 10% of the perpetrators because of a broken legal system that shuts victims out of court before they get there. (Victims usually cannot name their perpetrators without the legal system, because perpetrators can and will sue the victim for defamation.

After the California statute of limitations (SOL) window closed at the end of 2003, Delaware opened a two-year window in 2007, which will close in July 2009. Once again, in Delaware, survivors deeply appreciated the opportunity for justice and the public was educated about previously anonymous child abusers.

When the California window legislation passed, the hierarchy of the Catholic Church was still reeling from its recent exposure in Boston, and other communities across the country, and did not put up much of a fight. When the hierarchy realized after its passage, though, that many of their victims in California would open the window on the Church's secrets, they quickly mobilized, hiring an army of lawyers in California to fight every case (and now to fight the release of every document,
as I discussed in a previous column

The reform movement has become more sophisticated, with the Survivors for Justice purchasing radio spots urging passage, other groups even hiring lobbyists, and the creation of a comprehensive website, on which I have taken the lead. Moreover, the movement has expanded well beyond survivor groups alone, to now include Parents for Megan's Law, the National Organization for Women, Pandora's Project, Justice for Children, the Leadership Council, and the National Sexual Violence Resource Center, among many other worthy organizations.

Get Stoked Note: if we study our Bill of Rights as it applies to this problem we see a balance between the rights of the abused and the accussed.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Get Stoked Note: our current elected officials, even though they have lost site of it after just a few months took a very serious oath to obey our constitution including our Bill of Rights.

Our Dear Leader Obama Swore the following words:
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Our Dear Leader Pelosi Swore:
"I, ___, do solemnly swear (or affirm)that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;
that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me god.’’

The oath of office required by the sixth article of the Constitution of the United States, and as provided by section 2 of the act of May 13, 1884 (23 Stat. 22), to be administered to Members,Resident Commissioner, and Delegates of the House of Representatives,the text of which is carried in 5 U.S.C. 3331:

Supreme Court Says No Constitutional Right to DNA Testing for Convicts

Source: http://blogs.findlaw.com/blotter/2009/06/supreme-court-says-no-constitutional-right-to-dna-testing-for-convicts.html
By Javier Lavagnino

It's not unusual to hear news stories about individuals who have languished in prison for years to be freed based on exonerating DNA evidence. Similarly, although they might not get as many headlines, the police-indicate-john-floyd-thomas-jr-may-be-westside-rapist-mandatory-dna-collection-was-key.Police Indicate John Floyd Thomas Jr. May be 'Westside Rapist': Mandatory DNA Collection Was Key?"
The value of evidence from DNA tests for law enforcement and the prosecution in pursuing and establishing the guilt of a defendant is tough to dispute. In a close 5-4 Dist. Atty's Office for the Third Jud. Dist v. Osborne decision today, the Supreme Court today announced that there is no constitutional right for someone who has been convicted of an offense to get access to the prosecution's evidence to perform DNA testing.

In the eyes of the Court's majority the issue may have boiled down to one of procedure after someone has been convicted. With the consideration that someone has already been found guilty, the issue is best left to the legislatures of the states to resolve. Indeed, the Court pointed out that 46 states and the federal government already have laws dealing specifically with access to DNA evidence.

Get Stoked Note for the Abused: our Bill of Rights was never designed to be a suicide pact. Study all 10 of them they are meant to balance the way between protection of the innocent and the rights of the accussed. period.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common, promote the general Welfare and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Obama Demands Rejecting Hypocratic Oath to get Funding is BOOED by AMA

Source: http://www.rightpundits.com/?paged=2

By Cathryn Friar

It was inevitable I suppose. After just six months in office the Light Fantastic, Barack Obama, was actually booed during a speech - by Doctors! Read more below, see photos and the video.

Frankly, I didn’t know they had it in them! If the reception Barack Obama got from doctors at the American Medical Association meeting is an indicator, The One is in for a bumpy ride as he tries to sell ‘Obamacare’ - his plan to socialize our country’s health care system.

Those rowdy doctors booed Obama when he told them he wouldn’t help them win their top legislative priority: placing limits on jury damages in medical malpractice cases.

Of course we know what would have happened if The One had said he would help the doctors — the trial lawyers and unions who are major supporters of Democratic candidates would go ballistic. And that would be just the beginning. A wide variety of consumer groups would also revolt against Obama and we can’t have that now can we?

The doctors at the AMA meeting are only the first stop on Obama’s effort to socialize our health care in this country. Of course, his efforts to stamp out private insurance and subplant it with ‘Obamacare‘ would reduce the best medical care in the world to a mere shadow of itself — bad news for American taxpayers, health-care providers, and, most important, patients.

It is certainly clear, after just six months in office, that Barack Obama’s vision for our country is one where the government is greatly involved in the private sector: sometimes mandating heavily, sometimes taking over, sometimes competing. And despite Obama being booed by doctors, his efforts to get Obamacare passed by the end of his first year in office is a priority.

"Above all, do no harm"

Q: Why all the stress among our national physicians?
A: Until this administration everyone encouraged them to be loyal to their historic Hypocratic Oath.

The Hippocratic Oath is an oath traditionally taken by physicians pertaining to the ethical practice of medicine. It is widely believed that the oath was written by Hippocrates, the father of western medicine, in the 4th century BC, or by one of his students.

It is thus usually included in the Hippocratic Corpus. Classical scholar Ludwig Edelstein proposed that the oath was written by Pythagoreans, a theory that has been questioned due to the lack of evidence for a school of Pythagorean medicine.

The phrase "Above all, do no harm" is usually attributed to the oath. Although mostly of historical and traditional value, the oath is considered a rite of passage for practitioners of medicine, although it is not obligatory and no longer taken up by all physicians.

The Inspector General to Close to Obama's Crimes?

Gerald Walpin: more Obamaland thugery

June 17, 2009

confused? disoriented? i think not. i’ve seen gerald walpin, the fired americorps inspector general, on a number of shows and he is completely lucent, articulate, and very compelling.

apparently, The One is practicing hardball politics, chicago-style, with the firing of the inspector general, gerald walpin for his aggressive investigation of the misuse of federal americorps funds by sacramento, california mayor, former nba star, and big time obama supporter, kevin johnson as well as the research foundation of the city university of new york. you can read inspector walpin’s very lucid reports here.

the wh says they fired walpin for:

“Mr. Walpin was removed after a review was unanimously requested by the bi-partisan Board of the Corporation,” Obama ethics counsel Norm Eisen wrote in a letter to senators Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) and Susan Collins (R-Me.), with a copy directed to McCaskill. “The Board’s action was precipitated by a May 20, 2009 Board meeting at which Mr. Walpin was confused, disoriented, unable to answer questions and exhibited other behavior that led the Board to question his capacity to serve.”

“We further learned that Mr. Walpin had been absent from the Corporation’s headquarters, insisting upon working from his home in New York over the objections of the Corporation’s Board; that he had exhibited a lack of candor in providing material information to decision makers; and that he had engaged in other troubling and inappropriate conduct,” Eisen wrote. …

the white house is simply demonstrating Obamaland thugery by using shameful allegations of mental illness to discredit someone who didn’t fall under the spell of The One’s hopechangery but rather took his job seriously, daring to call out anyone - even friends ofOobama - who are fraudulently using taxpayer dollars.

now here’s what Gerald Walpin has to say after learning of the wh reasons for his firing:

“Anybody who’s heard me speaking more than I’m used to speaking on radio and TV in recent days, obviously under great pressure from what happened would clearly know that I know what I’m saying and what I’m doing and I’m not incoherent,”

Walpin told POLITICO. “There’s nothing confusing about malfeasance and there’s nothing confusing about what appears to be the fact that they terminated me because I was doing my job because the White House wanted to protect people who proclaim they are friends of the White House.”

amen.

with walpin’s firing, the top management positions at obama’s ‘new and improved’ americorps parent organization are now all open. Obama has in effect, cleared the way to install his lackeys who will protect the government volunteerism industry and its democrat cronies. and a cold chill has undoubtedly taken hold in every other inspector general’s office in washington.

any principled liberals or democrats left in congress? in the country? why is this chronic bullying and thugocracy toward political ‘enemies’ of the wh being tolerated? and answer me this: how’s all this hope and change working for you?
