Washington, DC—Say it ain’t so! Barack Obama caught with his pants down? Enquiring minds want to know!
Yep the National Enquirer is already up for a Pulitzer Prize for catching former VP candidate John Edwards with his fly open. Now it looks like catching Comrade Obama in flagrante delicto will win them another one for sure.
The bait for this hot badger game is allegedly a dedicated Obama campaign fund raiser, 35 year-old Vera Baker. The crime scene is the Hotel George.
The tabloid claims million dollar money offers are being made everywhere to buy silence. The big problem is a pesky security video. Apparently it was a limo driver that spilled the beans.
I hope the secret Service boys are on their toes because Michelle Obama may be swinging blunt instruments and throwing knives at the Chockalott Jesus. I’d hate to see a state funeral because they were asleep at the wheel!

Why Concealed Carry Is Right For Europe
Europe—Europe has a fascinating law-abiding substantial majority today. Europeans have amazing respect for all laws big and small. The timing is everything as crime rates now change for the worse.
Criminals here are particularly ruthless. Many criminals are coming from countries where respect for law is miniscule like the former Soviet Union. The Socialist run nations criminalized everything they could as a revenue tool. That destroyed respect for law in general.
Violence in Europe is on the increase and cannot be controlled by police especially in free societies. Committed and competent help needs to come from ordinary citizens.
The only meaningful way to stop in-progress crimes is with the threat of force or actual force. Superior manpower or firearms are the only resources that work to prevent imminent death or destruction. Just the threat of force nearly always works without injury. Except in rare circumstances, the cowardly criminals stop in their tracks or try to escape. Rarely is a single shot ever fired once an intended victim produces a gun. Peace is restored without injury or death.
Self-defense is nonexistent for those that cannot have the advantage of a weapon and several hours of training. Violent and early mortality can be avoided. Carrying a gun provides the same kind of advantage as wearing a seat belt while driving.
I carry a gun every day of my life. I wear a seat belt every time I drive. For me these things are automatic. I can say I’m alive today because I carried a gun. I have never been in a serious enough auto accident to claim a seat belt saved me from death or serious injury. I will still wear the seat belt as I pack my .45 automatic anyway.
The UK police make a big deal out of arming their officers. The government officials give their officers with weapons training initials to sign after their name just like they earned a PhD! Yes, that’s ridicules. The officers with that designation strut around like very important peacocks. The royally privileged and armed police then zealously set about to insure that only they be armed. How sickeningly repugnant is that?
The fact is, the members of society that need the firearm protection goes without and are at the mercy or lack of it displayed by the rapists, robbers and killers. The government holds down the law-abiding citizen until the thugs finish their acts. The government becomes parties and accomplices to the crimes.
Police always arrive after the fact, unable to arrest but simply to deal with the mops, buckets and report process. If the cops get lucky they will catch the most incompetent criminals that don’t know how to cover their tracks. Serial murderers are rarely captured by police. Their intended victims or armed people close to the victims actually have a much better capability to stop these killers.
As the crime rates increase in Europe the criminals will become bolder and unstoppable. This road to ruin can be stopped with trained armed citizens with the right to use reasonable force to stop victimization. Yes, the law-abiding can be trusted with firearms. We also know that convicted criminals cannot.
Gun training is important but the graduates need no initials after their names, just the right to be free from violent attack.
Europe simply needs to look at the statistics from the states in the USA that have concealed carry. Those who get the training and special permits are almost never found on the wrong side of the law. The very few who do break the law violence and firearms are never involved.

Justice Department Conspired, Not The Hutaree Militia
Detroit, MI—As the Barack Obama Administration controls the Justice Department this kind of despot law enforcement was anticipated.
The Whitehouse wants to intimidate and bully those who’d dare resist the Obama Socialist Revolution. How better to do so, than to label dissidents as terrorists and destroy their lives with raids, arrests and prosecutions.
What’s left of the discredited and doomed mainstream media better known as the, Obama Propaganda Ministry was quick to rewrite and publish the Justice Department press releases on the recent militia raids and arrests. This propaganda was to help with the Obama intimidation program aimed at dissidents.
Now comes the hard part, producing real evidence. Let’s start with the so-called illegal weapons. Weeks later the FBI claims they’re still testing the firearms and don’t know if they’re illegal. That’s beyond lame and an admission that the firearms were in fact legal.
It turns out they have some verbal exchanges among the members of the so-called Hutaree militia exchanging half-hearted, big talk about what they think the politicians and bureaucrats deserve for their treason.
There were no specific threats or plans to actually do anything at all but talk. Considering that paid informants infiltrated the group any of the braggadocio was undoubtedly inspired by the snitches sent to entrap them.
The FBI wants to keep the arrested dissidents behind bars in Detroit. The Whitehouse, Justice Department and FBI knows that any Detroit trial will have a super-majority African-American jury enamored Barack Obama. They will deliberate with hate against anyone that dislikes their Messiah and evidence won’t matter.
There is a conspiracy alright and that’s to violate the rights of any and all dissidents they can.
Now the problematic nature of the case is surfacing as U.S. District Judge Victoria Roberts’ questions about real evidence are going unanswered. The judge must decide if the nine defendants should be allowed to remain free pending the prosecution that may take as long as two years.
I can’t predict the ultimate outcome of this case since reverse race hatred, political competition and other factors are so heavily involved. The Justice department would have never pulled this stunt in an Area where jury panels would be not be stuffed with entitlement addicted Obama supporters.
I expect the Whitehouse and their goons to go after bloggers, radio show hosts and individual gun collectors that don’t share Obama’s hatred for the U.S. Constitution.
Some Americans will rightfully perceive government’s lawless and forceful political action an act of war and act accordingly.
Let me say this, Americans will never stand for another Waco assault on liberty. Government agents sent to victimize Americans will find themselves covered in their own blood. Millions of Americans are angry and willing to shed blood in order to preserve Liberty and the United States Constitution.
Update: On 3 May Judge Roberts ordered the defendats free peding further proceedings. The judge further indicated that the FBI's evidence was lacking.

Hollywood Is In A Creative Depression
Los Angeles, CA—Where are they? Where are the films that you really want to see? The compelling stories brought to the silver screen that have any relevance to our lives aren’t being made anymore.
Animations, robots, and comedies that barely make us chuckle are wasting space at the cinema’s. Gone are compelling stories of real heroes, courtroom dramas or historical events.
Personally, I want more actor driven films without the ridicules special effects that are just silly and not believable.
When I was visiting the Bendlerblock military compound in Berlin last November, I found 5000 stories there waiting to be told. That is where Col. Clause Von Stauffenberg and others planned the bombing attempt on Adolph Hitler’s life. Today a portion of that facility houses the German Resistance Museum. The stories here of of the heroes that were arrested tried and executed for resisting Adolph Hitler and the devastation he brought down on the German people. The stories documented there are all incredibly compelling and full of adrenalin fueled intrigue.
Nearly every courthouse in the entire world has those stories of justice served or gone wrong that would inspire, thrill and entertain moviegoers. Many of the best stories are long forgotten but none the less powerful and relevant to our lives.
Great films are out there that are not vehicles of the obvious product placement spam, action figures and the rest of the crap we did not spend our money to see.
My own film about recruit Chicago policewoman Ann Leybourne’s ending a career serial rapist’s reign of terror over the city’s North Side would put viewers on the edge of their seats. One beautiful young ingĂ©nue selected for brutal victimization by a cunning criminal was able to accomplish what Paul Kersey or Dirty Harry Callahan could only do in fictional thrillers. This film, COME FRIDAY is not so expensive to produce but will captivate and inspire the audience.
Every week I look for new movies and released DVD’s but can’t seem to find anything worthy of two hours and the price of a ticket. The Hollywood investors have never had a better opportunity to make quality films with so much expensive garbage out there. They just have look beyond the talent agencies that have lost their magic.
Film investors need to find a great story, land a decent director and avoid input from the large talent agencies their bad ideas that have not been working. Making films that’s actor driven is what movie goers really want.
Here is a great film waiting to be made that moviegoers are waiting to see. .

African-American Murder Culture Plagues Chicago
Chicago, IL—I’ve heard every excuse for crime by Chicago’s African-Americans for more than four decades. That, as their despicable deeds causes them to overflow from the jails and prisons of Illinois.
The unimaginable, constant and senseless murders by African-Americans are are rarely seen in the White communities. These murders are incredibly cruel and depraved for the most part. Most of Chicago’s violent crime is Black on Black followed by Black on White. The rarest crime in Chicago is White on Black.
Thoughtless, violent depravity has become a way of life for young Black males. You may argue that poverty causes the hungry to steal but these savages are not hungry. Their only hunger is simply to inflict massive indiscriminate suffering on others. Far too many African-Americans just don’t respect the value of human life.
Our polite society has chosen to cover-up this horrible cultural behavior and instead assigns this unilaterally to all Chicagoans. To talk about the racial aspects of crime is somehow considered racist if spoken about by a White person.
The murders of African-Americans by African-Americans in Chicago, is genocide. Exposing and condemning this behavior is not any form of racism but a reasonable response to the unleashed horror.
We cannot begin to treat or cure the horror if we choose to politely pretend this is not an African-American cultural behavior. Somehow this mutant form of life must be reprogrammed back into the human race. Enablement through tolerance and excuses for this behavior will never repair anything. The greatest form of racism is acceptance and tolerance of this culture of violence.
Fearing and avoiding African-Americans by Whites is not racism in Chicago but a normal instinct for survival. This behavior is a public relations nightmare for those well-behaved African-Americans. Okay folks, how do we fix this mess?

The Final Solution To Chicago’s Street Thug Problem
Chicago, IL—Rising unemployment, prisoner releases, and temperatures along with a vastly undermanned, poorly armed and demoralized police department means armed thugs will own Chicago's streets this summer.
Horrible street crimes such as the recent, near fatal baseball bat beating of two pretty young women and the brutal fatal stabbing of a tourist by the Michigan Avenue Bridge are a rapidly growing intolerable threat.
Brain-dead politicians are demanding National Guardsmen get deployed to the inner city to combat the problem. That idea is unworkable.
Chicago has nothing to lose in trying a better idea. They can immediately end the gun prohibition they will lose anyway in the next 60 days because of the McDonald ruling that’s pending before the Supreme Court.
Right now the gun bans only work against the law-abiding folks that obey them. Police can't simply start searching everyone like they do at airports. Criminals are free to roam the streets with all the guns they can fit under their baggy jeans.
The City of Chicago has had 30 years of gun bans that have never done for public safety what the politicians promised. Gun bans are the problem, not the solution. Why deprive people of the means to defend themselves?
The Illinois Legislature can amend the Unlawful Use of A Weapon Statute to exempt those with a valid Illinois Firearms Owners Identification Card from arrest for carrying a concealed weapon. They can also require the FOID card WITH a security guard blue firearms training card or a certificate of training from a state, local or federal law enforcement training academy, or personal protection/Basic Pistol firearms course offered by the NRA.
Illinois should also recognize valid concealed weapon permits issued by any state within the United States.
Chicago’s street thugs would finally be on notice that the state or local government will no longer enable their violence. These cowards can be stopped, but only through a partnership between law-abiding people and the police. The people of the state of Illinois and Chicago deserve what they don’t have right now, meaningful protection.

Another Excellent Adventure For Crimefile
Chicago, IL—For nearly a year I’ve been investigating a horrendous and notorious criminal case filed against a Chicago cop. When he was arrested five years ago the media swarmed all over this high profile case. The cop’s reputation and standing in the community was absolutely destroyed.
When I was asked to look into the case by a cop friend of 40 years, I soon learned that the accused cop’s defense lawyer had been barred from the practice of law and was still practicing anyway.
Eventually I learned the cop was absolutely innocent and nothing more than the victim of typical Cook County corruption shenanigans. The investigation by Chicago police detectives and internal affairs was the worst I’d seen in 40 years inside the Criminal Justice System.
The pretend lawyer was trying to force the accused cop into a guilty plea and felony conviction. The pretend lawyer never bothered to do anything but manage to get the case endlessly continued for over four years.
The cop fired the pretender and retained one of the country’s better criminal lawyers and on Monday we will finally begin trial. I don’t know how long this trial will last but I’ve never been so sure of how it will end. I will be there in court for the duration.
I can’t give any details now but stay tuned, this will unfold right here once the case gets resolved. I am convinced that the cop will be cleared and his pension will be protected.

The Soviet Rape Of Berlin’s Women And Children
Berlin, Germany—The people of Berlin were law-abiding, moral and hard working folks. They suffered through one war that ended in a peace treaty rather than occupation. Aside from the wicked death toll, food shortages and economic collapse the people of Berlin were simply genuine victims of the world’s despot politicians.
Adolph Hitler, a Socialist politician promised the German people, Hope and Change. Hitler was competing with the Communists for control. History shows both political parties were miserable Socialist tyrants. Germany’s people went on to lose nine million souls through war, bombing and political murder. That does not include the six million souls murdered at Nazi concentration camps or during transport.
The German people like everyone were optimistic their leader would be a paternal icon that would deliver them from their suffering. Like today’s American politicians Hitler deceived the people that supported him.
Hitler knew full well that even the most anti-Semitic German people would never support his unbridled slaughter of Jews. That was a carefully guarded State Secret and bureaucrats that knew referred to the murder program in polite coded terms, “The Final Solution.”
The German people suffered constantly from World War One until well beyond the Second World War’s end in 1945. The occupation by foreign Armies was brutal. Random warrantless searches and thefts of personal property were a German's constant companion. Soldiers and bureaucrats simply moved into every nice home they could find evicting the occupants.
Berlin was subjected to special horrors since the Soviets conquered this once thriving capital city. The Bolshevik Army simply took the women and children as sex slaves. They raped and raped with unbridled brutality and this just went unchecked. Most women in Berlin had lost their male family members and there was nobody left to protect them. The few men left in Berlin were deprived of their wives, daughters and sisters by rapists sanctioned by the Russian government.
In desperation German women had to resign themselves along with all their dignity and adapt to their new lives. Many women learned their only salvation was to try and pick a single strong Russian soldier to service so they were not constantly gang raped. The women found it was better to be the property of just one rapist.
The Allies divided Berlin into four sectors. The Russians, Americans, French and Brits each owned a piece of Berlin. The Rape in the Russian zone never really ended until the Berlin Wall came down 20 years ago November 9th.
The Western sectors of Berlin were cut off from every form of food, supplies and heating fuel by the Soviets whose new territory surrounded the city. Berliners are still grateful today to the Americans that risked their lives flying in food and needed supplies to them during the Cold War's Berlin Airlift.
The German people slowly were allowed to go about their business in peace and rebuild. With American help West Berlin regained its charm beauty and culture. The occupation ended and Germany today is a powerful friend and NATO member.
Yes it’s true, I hate Communists and Socialists more every day. They are the Parties of Murder. People acting under the color of these governments have a record of non-stop killing and horror. We must end their hold on America through whatever means we have. Socialists are an evil cancer that must be cut out or we will face the horrors they always unleash for certain.
The Berlin atrocities and War Crimes committed by the Russian pigs went unpunished, but the tragic memories of the now elderly women, is still there.

The Cult Of Obama To Force Illegal Alien Amnesty Down America’s Throat Now
Washington, DC—In light of Arizona’s making illegal aliens illegal Barack Obama and his Marxist cronies are in a panic. They know that statistics of cost savings will prove the real burden taxpayers have because of open borders. Immigration laws non-enforcement has put our healthcare and schools straight into bankruptcy. Arizona is bound to get some quick taxpayer relief because of their new state law.
The constant Central and South American export of crime, poverty and drugs will slow down in Arizona. This new Arizona law will definitely push California into more fiscal chaos and deeper insolvency as the illegal immigrants abuse entitlements in that formerly golden state.
Socialism can only exist where the majority of the population is completely dependent on government handouts. Obama’s band of Marxists know they are very close to their goals and with just a little more voter fraud they can get absolute and permanent power.
The majority in our Congress are desperate to give America another forced feeding of the Marxism they don’t want. These traitors are Hell bent on creating The Socialist states of America before voters get a chance to boot them out of office.
We have to punish the Marxists in our government in every way possible. We have to make things uncomfortable and dangerous for them as we can before they do much worse to us

Today’s Violent Criminals Escape Justice By Simply Crossing State Lines
Phoenix, AZ—As Phoenix police officers discover and arrest violent fugitives wanted in other states they get a rude surprise. The state that originated the warrants now tells them, “Keep him we don’t want him.”
Kidnappers, child molesters, robbers and burglars are escaping justice. Why you ask? It’s because, state and local governments are too cash poor to pay for the high cost of extradition.
Theft and drug offenders wanted for probation violations are getting a free ride most of the time. The best thing you can say to the fugitives leaving your jurisdiction today is good riddance.
The pay back for this kind of enforcement is brutal. Rather than clean up their act many of these felons graduate to even more serious crimes. The most glaring example is the fugitive that recently murdered four cops in the state of Washington.
Those felons that remain furthest away from the state they are wanted always stand a better chance of escaping the not-so-long arm of the law and avoiding incarceration.
This seems like a throwback to yesteryear when leaving state jurisdiction meant the end of the hunt by police. Extradition was not nearly automatic as it is today. Modern federal flight laws and better Governor’s extradition agreements insured there was no escape for criminals.
Of course there will still be the special criminals that catch the attention of the media or police administrators. Being a celebrity like Roman Polanski will get you extradited from anywhere since cops and prosecutors are star struck. I don’t think Lt. Phillip Gerard would ever let Dr. Richard Kimball escape even with a tight budget. The sad part of that story as we all know, Kimball was innocent!
Being an Illegal Alien In Arizona Is Now Illegal
Phoenix, AZ—With our medical care facilities and schools overwhelmed with trespassers from all of Central and South America and we are in a major crisis. Adding to the fact that jobs being held by American citizens and lawful immigrants are rapidly vanishing, the people of Arizona are under attack.
Arizona Senator Russ Pearce introduced legislation to help our federal government with the mission they’ve been unable or unwilling to do. That legislation passed both Houses and has been signed by Governor Jan Brewer. Police can now arrest these trespassers on state charges if they dare set foot in Arizona.
The illegal aliens already in Arizona can alleviate the threat of arrest and imprisonment by simply going away. That’s really very simple.
President Barack Obama in violation of his oath has openly favored the current policy of not enforcing existing laws. Obama has now attacked Arizona for taking action to remedy the problem.
I’m proud to have known Russ Pearce since he was a young Maricopa County deputy sheriff 33 years ago. I’ve also known Jan Brewer for at least 30 years and found her to be a freedom loving Conservative American.
The Leftists want what they call, Immigration Reform. That misleading title is bogus. Their idea of reform is the simple repeal of existing immigration laws and amnesty. We have a legitimate system for immigration that overwhelmingly favors the ignorant, and entitlement hungry from our Southern border. That over educated, English speaking people from Europe we know will never be a burden to taxpayers.
We should realize a substantial Arizona entitlement tab drop along with those unpaid hospital bills and public school enrolment. Those statistics may reveal just how expensive open borders are to taxpayers.
Our neighbors south of the border have only exported crime, poverty and drugs to Arizona and the United States.
Barack Obama is by far the largest threat America has ever faced to its Constitution and way of life. Obama is Public Enemy #1. All Americans have a duty to rid ourselves of Obama and his Socialist cronies or we will deserve what we get.
Sit back and watch my long time friend Frank Camacho report on this new law at the State Capital.
Blago About To Receive A Get Out Of Jail Free Card?
Chicago, IL—We know that Barack Obama controls the US Attorney and has the votes in Congress to obstruct any investigation of his own political corruption.
The inconvenient indictment and pending prosecution of former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich is now a genuine threat to the Presidency. Sealed court information has been leaked and now Obama’s own criminal conduct has been exposed. All the King’s horses and all the King’s men won’t save the Messiah’s skin. That is of course if the case against Blago moves forward.
Obama’s supporters are in a deep cult induced denial that their Messiah would do anything wrong. They want to believe they’re being led to the Promised Land. I guess the new arrivals at the Auschwitz Concentration Camp wanted to believe that they were only being led to a harmless shower too. Being optimistic is all very understandable but often fatal.
Blago has laid his cards on Obama’s table demanding his right to subpoena witnesses for his defense. Obama has too much to hide and he knows it. There is only one answer for Obama, and that’s to find a graceful way to make Blago disappear or at least the criminal case against him.
Blago has had that Ace up his sleeve from day one. Will it be a contrived technical glitch that frees Blago? Will it be a Presidential Pardon that does the trick? Or will someone just kill the former governor to shut him up for good?
Let me make my prediction that this prosecution is about to be interrupted by the fickle finger of fate or at least an Ace up Blago’s sleeve.

Blago Now Has A Price On His Head For Sure
Chicago, IL—An analysis of the latest filing by the defense attorneys representing former Governor Rod Blagojevich reveals there exists evidence of direct and sinister conduct by President Barack Obama.
The Ward Room has uncovered damning information in the filing that should cause the appointment of a Special Prosecutor to look into the role Obama played in selling his old senate seat.
Rod Blagojevich is in real and mortal danger of being liquidated to silence him and prevent his testimony.

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
Now Comes Defendant Rod Blagojevich, by and through his counsels and hereby
requests this court issue a subpoena ad testificandum for President Barack Obama. In support of
said motion, defendant states the following:1
1. President Barack Obama was elected November 4, 2008 and was inaugurated January

2010 (document 305) “Redaction, in cases where the redacted words are relevant to the case and considered in
reaching a decision, is still permitted but discouraged.” See In re Krynicki, 983 F.2d 74, 75 (7th Cir. 1992)
(“Information that is used at trial or otherwise become the basis of decision enters the public record.”) (citation
omitted). The case for redaction has to be proven not presumed. ... But it is clear that the remedy to the objection
that a portion of a statement may be misleading to the public (and the jury pool) is not redaction but disclosure of the
omitted portion. Disclosure of written material a month and a half before the beginning of trial does not come close
to presenting a significant threat that a fair jury cannot be found. The experience of the courts in cases which attract
significant news coverage has shown that pretrial news reporting is an overstated menace to fair jury trials.”

Telegraph, December 26, 2008.

5. On December 19, 2009, the defense filed a Motion for Discovery. In that motion, the
defense requested all notes, transcripts, and reports generated from the government’s
interview of President Barack Obama.
6. As of today’s date, the defense has not received any notes, transcripts, or reports from
President Obama’s interview with the government.
7. The government alleges that Defendant Rod Blagojevich met “with a labor union
official who he believed to be in contact with the President-elect in regard to the
vacant Senate seat, and suggested to the labor union official that Rod Blagojevich
would appoint Senate Candidate B to the vacant Senate seat in exchange for Rod
Blagojevich being named Secretary of Health and Human Services.” (Indictment p.
101, para. 10(c)).
8. President Obama has stated publicly that he was “confident that no representatives of
mine would have any part of any deals3 related to this seat.”4
9. Yet, despite President Obama stating that no representatives of his had any part of
any deals, labor union president told the FBI and the United States Attorneys that he
spoke to labor union official on November 3, 2008 who received a phone message
from Obama that evening. After labor union official listened to the message
labor union official told labor union president “I’m the one”. Labor union
president took that to mean that labor union official was to be the one to deliver
the message on behalf of Obama that Senate Candidate B was his pick. (Labor
union president 302, February 2, 2009, p. 7).
10. Labor union official told the FBI and the United States Attorneys “Obama expressed
his belief that [Senate Candidate B] would be a good Senator for the people of
Illinois and would be a candidate who could win re-election. [Labor union
official] advised Obama that [labor union official] would reach out to Governor
Blagojevich and advocate for [Senate Candidate B].. . . [Labor union official]
called [labor union president] and told [labor union president] that Obama was
aware that [labor union official] would be reaching out to Blagojevich.” (Labor
union official 302, February 3, 2009 p. 3).
3 Deal is defined as a “transaction; bargain; contract; an arrangement for mutual advantage.” Merriam-Webster
Online Dictionary. A deal requires two willing participants.

11. According to Senate Candidate B, on November, 4 2008, Senate Candidate B
spoke with labor union official about the Senate seat. Labor union official said
he spoke to Obama. Labor union official said he was going to meet with
Blagojevich and said “he was going to push Blagojevich hard on this. According
to Senate Candidate B, labor union official’s language could have been stronger
than the language that she was reporting to the government.” (Senate Candidate
B 302, December 19, 2008).
12. On November 5, 2008, Blagojevich told John Harris that labor union official “talked
to Barack Obama, wants to come and see me.” Blagojevich then told Harris that
labor union official “was very explicit with me, “I talked to Barack about the
Senate seat. Can I come and see ya? Can I do it tomorrow?’ I said, sure.”
(Blagojevich Home Phone Call # 261).
13. A supporter of Presidential Candidate Obama suggested that she talk to the wife of
Governor Blagojevich about Senate Candidate B for Senator. (Valerie Jarrett
302, December 19, 2008). Supporter of Presidential Candidate Obama is
mentioned in a phone call on November 3, 2008, having offered “fundraising” in
exchange for Senate Candidate B for senator (Blagojevich Home Phone Call #
149).
14. President Obama has direct knowledge to allegations made in the indictment. In
addition, President Obama’s public statements contradict other witness statements,
specifically those made by labor union official and Senate Candidate B. It is
anticipated that labor union official will be a witness for the government. His
accounts of events directly related to the charges in the indictment are contradicted by
President Obama’s public statement.
15. Even the prosecutor in this case indicated “there’s no allegation that the presidentelect
– there’s no reference in the complaint to any conversations involving presidentelect
or indicating that the president-elect was aware of it.”5
16. There are two conflicting stories and the defense has the right to admit evidence that
contradicts the government’s claims. Only President Obama can do this.
17. President-elect Obama also spoke to Governor Blagojevich on December 1, 2008
in Philadelphia. On Harris Cell Phone Call # 139, John Harris and Governor’s
legal counsel discuss a conversation Blagojevich had with President-elect

Obama. The government claims a conspiracy existed from October 22, 2008
continuing through December 9, 2008.6 That conversation is relevant to the defense
of the government’s theory of an ongoing conspiracy. Only Rod Blagojevich and
President Obama can testify to the contents of that conversation. The defense is
allowed to present evidence that corroborates the defendant’s testimony.7
18. President-elect Obama also suggested Senate Candidate A to Governor Blagojevich.
John Harris told the FBI and the United States Attorneys that he spoke to
President’s Chief of Staff on November 12, 2008. Harris took notes of the
conversation and wrote that President’s Chief had previously worked as
Blagojevich's press secretary. Obama agreed of Staff told Harris that Senate
Candidate A was acceptable to Obama as a senate pick. (Harris handwritten
notes, OOG1004463) President’s Chief of Staff told the FBI that “he could not
say where but somewhere it was communicated to him that” Senate Candidate A
was a suggested candidate viewed as one of the four “right” candidates “by the
Obama transition team.” (Rahm Emanuel 302, p. 5, December 20, 2008). Harris
told Blagojevich Obama’s suggestion on November 12, 2008 (Blagojevich Home
Phone Call # 539).
19. President-elect Obama was also involved in other senate candidate choices. On
December 8, 2008, John Harris’ secretary’s call log noted President’s Chief of
Staff called at 10:47 am and wrote “needs to talk to you asap” (Harris 302,
February 20, 2009). President’s Chief of Staff told the FBI that he had a
conversation discussing the Senate seat with Obama on December 7, 2008 in
Obama’s car. President’s Chief of Staff told the FBI “Obama expressed concern
about Senate Candidate D being appointed as Senator. [President’s Chief of
Staff] suggested they might need an expanded list to possibly include names of
African Americans that came out of the business world. [President’s Chief of
Staff] thought he suggested Senate Candidate E who was the head of the Urban

Return for his Appointment of a United States Senator.” The paragraph states: “Beginning in or about October
2008, and continuing until on or about December 9, 2008 . . .”
7 See, Wisconsin ex rel. Monsoor v. Gagnan, 497 F.2d 1126 (7th Cir. 1974) (holding that the state trial court
committed reversible error and violated the defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial and compulsory
process by striking the testimony of the only corroborating witness to a phone call that related directly to the
defendant’s defense), citing Braswell v.Wainwright, 463 F.2d 1148, 1155-56 (5th Cir. 1972) (holding that “Closely
related to [the defendant’s] Sixth Amendment right is his right to a fair trial - - to due process. [The defendant] had a
right to at least present the testimony of his sole corroborating witness to the jury. That the jury might still have
returned a guilty verdict is beside the point; judgment of the credibility of witnesses is for the trier of fact.”)

League and with President’s Chief of Staff’s suggestion." (President’s Chief of
Staff, 302, 12-20-08).
20. President Barack Obama has direct knowledge of the Senate seat allegation.
President Obama’s testimony is relevant to three fundamental issues of that
allegation. First, President Obama contradicts the testimony of an important
government witness. Second, President Obama’s testimony is relevant to the
necessary element of intent of the defendant. Third, President Obama is the only one
who can say if emissaries were sent on his behalf, who those emissaries were, and
what, if anything, those emissaries were instructed to do on his behalf. All of these
issues are relevant and necessary for the defense of Rod Blagojevich.
21. Tony Rezko is one of the government’s main witnesses.8 Mr. Rezko’s credibility is
extremely relevant in this trial. In many instances, Mr. Rezko is the government’s
crucial witness to prove up their allegations.9 Mr. Rezko wrote a letter to a federal
judge stating “the prosecutors have been overzealous in pursuing a crime that never
happened. They are pressuring me to tell them the “wrong” things that I supposedly
know about Governor Blagojevich and Senator Obama. I have never been a party to
any wrongdoing that involved the Governor or the Senator. I will never fabricate lies
about anyone else for selfish purposes.” (Exhibit A)
22. However, the defense has a good faith belief that Mr. Rezko, President Obama’s
former friend, fund-raiser, and neighbor told the FBI and the United States Attorneys
a different story about President Obama. In a recent in camera proceeding, the
government tendered a three paragraph letter indicating that Rezko “has stated
in interviews with the government that he engaged in election law violations by
personally contributing a large sum of cash to the campaign of a public official
who is not Rod Blagojevich. … Further, the public official denies being aware of
cash contributions to his campaign by Rezko or others and denies having
conversations with Rezko related to cash contributions. … Rezko has also stated
in interviews with the government that he believed he transmitted a quid pro quo
offer from a lobbyist to the public official, whereby the lobbyist would hold a
fundraiser for the official in exchange for favorable official action, but that the
8 The defense has requested that the government provide a witness list. To date, the government has not provided a
list of witnesses.
9 See, Counts 1, 2, and 3 of the Indictment. The Pension Obligation Bond Deal ( p. 9 (para. 7), p. 48 (para. 6)); The
Solicitation of Ali Ata (p. 9 (para. 9)), Benefits Given to Rod Blagojevich (Rezko directed or provided payments to
Rod Blagojevich’s wife) (p. 53 (para. 9 (a.), (b.), (c.))), Blagojevich used the power of the Office of the Governor to
give Rezko substantial influence over appointments to boards and commissions (p. 8 (para. 5)) (p. 13 (para. 18)) (p.
42 (para. 4-5)) (p. 47 (para. 4)) (p. 53 (para. 17)).

public official rejected the offer. The public official denies any such
conversation. In addition, Rezko has stated to the government that he and the
public official had certain conversations about gaming legislation and
administration, which the public official denies having had.”10
23. President Obama is the only one who can testify as to the veracity of Mr. Rezko’s
allegations above.
24. President Obama has pertinent information as to the character of Mr. Rezko.
President Obama can testify to Mr. Rezko’s reputation for truthfulness as well as his
own opinion of Mr. Rezko’s character. See, Fed. R. Evid. 405(a) and 608. Mr.
Rezko and President Obama became friends in 1990. According to President Obama,
Mr. Rezko raised as much as $60,000 in campaign contributions for Obama.11
25. Based on the relationship that President Obama and Mr. Rezko had, President Obama
can provide important information as to Mr. Rezko’s plan, intent, opportunity, habit
and modus operandi. See, Fed. R. Evid. 404(b) and 406. For example, in June 2005,
President Obama purchased a house for $1.65 million, $300,000 below the asking
price. On the same day Tony Rezko’s wife, Rita, paid full price -- $625,000 -- for the
adjoining land. In January 2006, Obama paid Mr. Rezko $104,500 for a strip of the
adjoining land. The transaction took place when it was widely known that Mr. Rezko
was under investigation.12 President Obama’s relationship with Tony Rezko is
relevant and necessary Fed. R. Evid. 404(b) and 406 evidence.
26. Regarding a Presidential subpoena, the Supreme Court has held that:
“The right to the production of all evidence at a criminal trial . . . has
constitutional dimensions. The Sixth Amendment explicitly confers upon
10 The defense has a good faith belief that this public official is Barack Obama. See, “Obama on Rezko deal: It
was a mistake”, Dave McKinney, Chris Fusco, and Mark Brown, Chicago Sun Times, November 5, 2006. Senator
Barack Obama was asked: “Did Rezko or his companies ever solicit your support on any matter involving state or
federal government? Did Al Johnson, who was trying to get a casino license along with Tony Rezko, or Rezko
himself ever discuss casino matters with you?” Senator Obama answered: “No, I have never been asked to do
anything to advance his business interest. In 1999, when I was a State Senator, I opposed legislation to bring a
casino to Rosemont and allow casino gambling at docked riverboats which news reports said Al Johnson and Tony
Rezko were interested in being part of. I never discussed a casino license with either of them. I was a vocal
opponent of the legislation.” Obama’s involvement with Tony Rezko and this legislation coincides with the
three paragraph summary the government has provided to the defense referenced above.

every defendant in a criminal trial the right ‘to be confronted with the
witnesses against him’ and ‘to have compulsory process for obtaining
witnesses in his favor.’ Moreover, the Fifth Amendment also guarantees that
no person shall be deprived of liberty without due process of law. It is the
manifest duty of the courts to vindicate those guarantees, and to accomplish
that it is essential that all relevant and admissible evidence be produced.”
United States v. Nixon, 418 US 683, 711 (1974).
27. Although it is not commonplace to subpoena a sitting President, the Supreme Court
has noted that sitting Presidents have been subpoenaed by federal courts with
“sufficient frequency that such interactions between the Judicial and Executive
branches can scarcely be thought a novelty.” Clinton v. Jones, 520 US 681, 704, 137
L.Ed. 2d 945, 967 (1997).
28. Indeed, history is replete with cases in which Presidents have been subpoenaed or
have provided evidence in federal cases.13
29. In addition to criminal trials, Theodore Roosevelt, Harry Truman and John F.
Kennedy were defendants in civil cases involving actions prior to taking office.
Clinton v. Jones, 520 US at 692, citing People ex rel. Hurley v. Roosevelt, 179 N.Y.
544, 71 N.E. 1137 (1904); DeVault v. Truman, 354 Mo. 1193, 194 S.W.2d 29 (1946);
Bailey v. Kennedy, No. 757,200 (Cal. Super. Ct. 1960); Hills v. Kennedy, No. 757,201
(Cal. Super. Ct. 1960). President Nixon was deposed in several civil actions and

comply with a subpoena duces tecum in the trial of Aaron Burr); Rotunda, Presidents and Ex-Presidents as
Witnesses: A Brief Historical Footnote, 1975 U. Ill. L. F. 1, 5-6 (referencing President Monroe’s answers to
interrogatories in the trial of an appointee, whose meetings with the President were cited as contributing factors to
accusations he received his job appointment under “intrigue and misconduct” and also references a lengthy
deposition given by President Grant in a criminal case); United States v. Nixon, 418 US 683, 41 L.Ed. 2d 1039
(1974) (The Supreme Court held that President Nixon was obligated to comply with a subpoena duces tecum in a
criminal trial); United States v. Poindexter, 732 F. Supp. 142, 145, citing to United States v. Mitchell, 385 F.Supp
1190 (D.D.C. 1974) and United States v. Haldeman, 559 F.Supp.2d 31, 80-81 (D.C. Cir. 1976) (where President
Nixon was subpoenaed by the Government and defendants in criminal trials of his appointees resulting from the
Watergate scandal); United States v. Fromme, 405 F.Supp. 578 (ED Cal. 1975) (where President Ford was
subpoenaed and deposed as a defense witness in the criminal trial of the woman accused of attempting to assassinate
him); United States v. Poindexter, 732 F.Supp. at 145 (D.D.C. 1990) (referring to President Carter’s videotaped
deposition in a criminal trial and a separate grand jury investigation); Id., at 144-46, 159-60 (where President
Reagan was ordered to testify via videotaped deposition in the criminal trial resulting from the Iran-Contra affair);
and Clinton v. Jones, 520 US at 705, citing United States v. McDougal, 934 F. Supp. 296 (ED Ark. 1996) and
United States v. Branscum, No. LRP-CR-96-49 (ED Ark., June 7, 1996) (referencing President Clinton’s compelled
testimony via videotaped deposition in two criminal proceedings, including as an impeachment witness for the
defense in the McDougal case).
Case 1:08-cr-00888 Document 327 Filed 04/22/10 Page 7 of 11
8
Presidents Lincoln, T. Roosevelt, Tyler and Adams were compelled to appear before
congressional committees. United States v. Poindexter, 732 F. Supp at 145.
30. It is well settled that the Federal Courts have subpoena power over a sitting
President. Chief Justice Marshall’s early opinion from the Burr case has
been “unequivocally and emphatically endorsed” by the Supreme Court and
other federal courts. See, United States v. Nixon, 418 US at 706; Clinton v.
Jones, 520 US at 704.
“Whatever difference may exist with respect to the power to compel the
same obedience to the process, as if it had been directed to a private
citizen, there exists no difference with respect to the right to obtain it. ...
The guard, furnished to this high officer, to protect him from being
harassed by vexatious and unnecessary subpoenas, is to be looked for in
the conduct of a court after those subpoenas have issued; not in any
circumstance which is to precede their being issued.” United States v.
Fromme, 405 F. Supp. At 582, citing United States v. Burr, at p.30.
31. The Supreme Court has consistently ruled that “the twofold aim [of criminal justice]
is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer.” United States v. Nixon, supra, citing
Berger v. United States, 295 US 78, 88 (1935). The Court continued, in Nixon, that
“the need to develop all relevant facts in the adversary system is both fundamental
and comprehensive. The ends of criminal justice would be defeated if judgments were
to be founded on a partial or speculative presentation of the facts. . . To ensure that
justice is done, it is imperative to the function of courts that compulsory process be
available for the production of evidence needed either by the prosecution or by the
defense.” United States v. Nixon, 418 US at 709. In sum,
[Federal precedent holds that] no person, even a President, is above the
law and that in appropriate judicial proceedings, documents and other
tangible evidence within the very office of the President may be obtained
for use in those judicial proceedings. Similarly, where the President
himself is a percipient witness to an alleged criminal act, the President
must be amenable to subpoena as any other person would be. United
States v. Fromme,405 F.Supp. at 582 (emphasis added).
32. Here, President Obama is a critical witness. All of President Obama’s testimony
would entail evidence he witnessed before he became president and does not involve
Executive Privilege. As the District Court ruled in Fromme:
Case 1:08-cr-00888 Document 327 Filed 04/22/10 Page 8 of 11
9
“Notwithstanding the burden which is imposed on the person of the
President if he is called to testify as a witness in a criminal trial, this
court has an even heavier burden to ensure a fair and a speedy trial to
the accused, with total regard for all the rights and protections afforded
an accused under the law of this land.
‘[The] allowance of the [Executive] privilege to withhold evidence that
is demonstrably relevant in a criminal trial would cut deeply into the
guarantee of due process of law and gravely impair the basic function of
the courts.’” United States v. Fromme, 405 F.Supp. at 583 (emphasis
added)(citations omitted), citing United States v. Nixon, 418 US at 712.
33. President Obama has direct and intimate knowledge of facts alleged in the indictment.
Indeed, the President is a percipient witness. United States v. Fromme, 405 F.Supp.
at 581. President Obama is a witness to the conduct alleged as well as an
impeachment witness to at least two of the government’s critical witnesses.14
34. The defense does not take lightly the overwhelming schedule the President has and
the security constraints surrounding his testimony. A videotape deposition will
remedy both of those legitimate concerns. See, Fed. R. Crim. Pro. 15 and see also,
United States v. Fromme, 405 F.Supp. at 582 (videotape deposition “protect[s] the
accused’s rights under the Sixth Amendment of the United States Constitution while
at the same time imposing the least onerous burden on the person and the office of the
President of the United States.”).
35. The defense requests that, if this court grants a videotape deposition in lieu of in-court
testimony, defense counsel be permitted to conduct the examination of President
Obama after the government’s case in chief. See, United States v. McDougal, 103
F.3d 651 (ED Ark. 1996) and 943 F.Supp. 296 (ED Ark. 1996) (videotaped
deposition of President Clinton which took place at the White House, and because
President Clinton was called as a defense witness to impeach David Hale, the Court
ordered that President Clinton not testify until after the in-court testimony of David
Hale.).
36. The defendant has a right to put on a case and challenge the allegations the
government attempts to prove. President Obama is relevant and necessary to the
14 Joseph Aramanda is another government witness that President Obama can testify to as well. Joseph Aramanda’s
son, John Aramanda, received an internship with then-Senator Obama. Joseph Aramanda contributed $11,500 to
Obama since 2000 and John Aramanda was recommended by Tony Rezko. Internship also links Obama, Rezko,
Frank Main, Chicago Sun-Times, December 24, 2006. President Obama will be able to provide relevant information
as to Joseph Aramanda. See, para. 24 and 25, supra.
Case 1:08-cr-00888 Document 327 Filed 04/22/10 Page 9 of 11

defendant’s case. The defense understands that the President of the United States of
America is not a routine witness and would not request his appearance if it did not
think he was critical to the liberty of Rod Blagojevich. Whatever security or
scheduling concerns can be reduced by arranging for the most convenient
presentation of testimony. The President can testify via video conference or can be
deposed outside of court at an evidence deposition. These options would satisfy the
defendant’s fundamental right to a fair trial and security and scheduling concerns.
37. The defense requests this court grant this motion not because Rod Blagojevich was
the Governor of Illinois, but because he is a defendant in a criminal case where his
liberty and freedom are at stake. Likewise, the defense requests this court grant this
motion to issue a subpoena ad testificandum to President Obama, not because he is
the President of the United States, but rather because he is a witness necessary to Rod
Blagojevich’s Constitutional right to a fair trial. Justice requires no more and no less.
“it would be inconceivable -- in a Republic that subscribes neither to the
ancient doctrine of the divine right of kings nor to the more modern
conceit of dictators that they are not accountable to the people whom
they claim to represent or to their courts of law -- to exempt [the
President] from the duty of every citizen to give evidence that will
permit the reaching of a just outcome of this criminal prosecution.
Defendant has shown that the evidence of the . . . President is needed to
protect his right to a fair trial, and he will be given the opportunity to
secure that evidence.” United States v. Poindexter, 732 F. Supp at 159.
WHEREFORE, defendant Rod Blagojevich respectfully requests this Honorable Court
order the government turn over to the defense any and all reports generated during any and all
interviews had with President Barack Obama and issue a subpoena ad testificandum for
President Obama to appear at the trial of United States v. Rod Blagojevich.

Blago Has the Goods On Obama, Fireworks Starting
Chicago, IL-The Regular Democratic Party Organization here is nothing more than a criminal Mob enterprise operated by the Daley-Burke Crime Families. They exist through racketeering, bribery, extortion, theft of public funds and a code of silence.
Former Governor Rod Blagojevich got sideways with his former friends and that gave the U.S. Attorney here, Patrick J. Fitzgerald rare job security through a changing Presidential administration. Fitzgerald has enough knowledge to destroy Barack Obama and is holding a trump card as J. Edgar Hoover did over everyone during his dynasty at the FBI. Wire-taping was the tool for both men.
When Blagojevich was arrested his former pals that endorsed him for the state’s highest office quickly labeled him as mentally ill and a liar before he said a word in his own defense. Blagojevich was part of the crime cabal, wheeling and dealing no differently than anyone else in that cesspool.
Now Blagojevich’s lawyers are seeking to subpoena Barack Obama. That’s not a dumb move since Blagojevich has the goods on our Socialist leader. Obama has the both the need and ability to force the case against Blagojevich to quietly end.
As for the wire-taped conversations Fitzgerald has, they are being kept secret. They can only be one reason for that and it’s called a cover-up. That’s what has been Fitzgerald’s trump card he hopes will perhaps even land him a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.
I can’t predict just what will happen other than to say Fitzgerald will do anything and everything to protect Obama. Blagojevich should simply come clean and go public with everything he knows about the former members of that Chicago criminal enterprise that included Barack Obama. The conspiracy and cover-up needs to end. Obama needs to be exposed, removed from the Whitehouse, tried and put in prison with all of his fellow mobsters.

The Socialist Liar Has Spoken, New Taxes For All
Washington, DC—Despite claims by Barack Obama that no American earning less than $250.000 per year will see their tax increased by a single dime we are all in for his new extortion program, a Value Added Tax.
How dare anyone call Obama a Marxist or Socialist! He just admires, hangs around with and takes advice from them at every opportunity. I guess it’s just a coincidence that each and every move Obama makes is right out of Karl Marx’s Das Kapital or Hitler’s Mein Kamph.
There is little or no evidence that Obama has any respect for the Constitution of The United States. Barack Obama is the single biggest threat to the United States of America and our hard won freedoms in its entire history.
Obama’s supporters are in denial even though this traitor has broken each and every campaign promise he ever made to them.
It’s only a matter of time until this dangerous despot makes war on the Americans that resist his Socialist and un-American dictates. Obama must make his move within the next couple of years because he will never see re-election and he knows it. Whoever loses this conflict will be visited by the hangman.

A Monday evening in Santa Monica
Santa Monica, CA--Last night (Monday), I was attending a one woman play put up by acting coach and consummate actor, Graham Beckel for one of his many talented students. You will remember Beckel playing Sgt. Dick Stensland in LA Confidential or perhaps in nearly 100 other movies and TV shows.
I had parked my car and had about eight minutes to kill so I hit the street with my little Flip video camera. There are all kinds of people doing this on the Santa Monica Third Street Promenade. This was only a little of the talent that can be seen here performing for their supper.
Update: My pal Pablo Lewin is and actor, director, film maker and airline pilot is also a good investigator. He tracked down the amazing blond singer's website. Her song was, Aint Got Nothing On You and her name is Sammie Jay. Her website is here.

Are Americans Are Too Disobedient And Well Armed For Absolute Socialist Power?
Washington, DC—As the Marxists within the Barack Obama administration plan on their new Socialist state they are running into huge problems they never anticipated. These Bolsheviks are working with the same tactics used to control Russia, China and so many other countries. The National Socialists took power in Germany with relative ease. Those plans won’t work here.
In the past the inhabitants of those converted Socialist countries were an obedient lot that viewed resistance against government authority to be morally wrong. Of course we have that element here too but it’s just not the same.
Unlike the countries that submitted to the Socialists, America has a strong history of government dissent. Americans openly defy whatever the government of the day tries to dictate. There is just one additional huge difference and that’s the nearly 300 million firearms in the hands of its citizens.
For over a year Americans have bought up every single round of ammunition available. Then there are those that are capable that manufacture their own ammunition using readily available and inexpensive equipment. These proud Americans are the ones in charge of the Socialist Welcoming Committee.
Logistically, fighting armed Americans is an impossible task. The most heavily armed are spread out over vast areas of land. Getting control of the large cities won’t be a cake walk but they can be beaten into submission.
Thy pacification of the vast land that is the United States by Socialists would require military assets that just don’t exist.
Socialists first try a revolution of ideology, empty promises and words. When that fails the Red Bastards always use guns. That political terrorism always works against the unarmed and helpless but can only fail against armed freedom loving Americans.
One only needs to look at those political maps to see the confined and heavily populated places that contain people that supported the Leftists. Then look at the vast areas of land that contain the people we can count on to resist. Next you have to see just who has the most stable food and water supply and it is not the entitlement addicted Leftist big city dwellers.
The American landscape is loaded with millions well-trained and armed combat veterans that will do whatever necessary for our way of life, mom and apple pie. Local law enforcement officers will never take orders from Socialists that control Washington, DC.
With the likes of the Obama Cabinet and parallel Czar Cabinet that would be waging their revolution have a vast lack of anyone with military skills.
Go ahead Bolsheviks with your grand plans, MAKE MY DAY!

Is Crimefile News Guilty Of Sedition?
Time Magazine’s Joe Klein and New York
Magazine's John Heilemann would hold a show trial and hang me along along some great company, Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin.
Klein threw down his anti-sedition gauntlet on the MSNBC Leftist Chris Matthew’s Show on Sunday. Heilemann was in full agreement.
Klein offered a definition of sedition which is conduct or language inciting rebellion against the authority of the state. Sedition is of course a serious felony crime.
Klein forgot just one little item and that is the state’s officials get their authority from the United States constitution. If our officials elected or not try to govern outside of this inconvenient document, the Constitution itself legitimizes and legalizes rebellion.
Everyone must remember it’s always the winners of these conflicts that hang the losers and they also get to write the history books. This country was not founded by a bunch of limp wristed cowards that failed to zealously protect freedom and liberty.
There are plenty of well armed, real Americans that would jump at the chance of waging full scale war on any American politicians tampering with the Constitution and freedom.
To Klein and Heilemann, Please add this middle-aged, freedom loving, White man to your sedition list.
It is indeed threats like this from the Bolsheviks that will guarantee another civil war in America. America’s military and police are taking side everyday and only a tiny minority support the Socialists.
Our founders designed this country to operate on a principal that the government fear its citizens rather than the other way around. As they trample the rights of Americans these despots will need much larger armies of bodyguards.

Weis Cowardice Makes the New York Times!
Chicago, IL--At least here the Daley/Burke Crime Family controlled Chicago media has obviously put a blackout on this story. The New York Times has not swept it under the national rug however as they covered this and other problems facing Chicagoans bracing for a very violent summer.
Chicago cops loath their police superintendent and city administration more than ever. It is not a good time to live or work in Chicago. Avoiding all city events such as the Taste of Chicsgo is advisable in this climate.
The NY Times left out some important and highly relevant facts that can be counted on to contribute to violence such as wholesale prisoner releases and the skyrocketing unemployment rate. Of course self-defense has been outlawed in Chicago for three decades of a gun ban so only criminals are armed.
It was Good Friday when Chicago police superintendent Jody Weis fled on camera from an in progress fatal shooting. The killer of Reggie Myers escaped because not enough police made it to the scene quickly enough. The shots could be heard on tape and Weis' now legendary sound bite, “Gotta run!” was made. That, as Weis fled from a CBS2 reporter and any personal danger.
You can read the New York Times article here.
Here is the “Gotta run!” video:

Nazi Group Battles LA Today
Los Angeles, CA—A group will demonstrate and celebrate the April 19th birthday of Adolph Hitler in downtown L.A. under the swastika. They seem to admire Hitler and his National Socialist movement, or do they?
It appears they have no clue just what National Socialism is. They apparently only like the master race aspect of Hitler’s disaster. These Nazi supporters are incoherent about what they really want from government. I guess these folks feel disenfranchised, frustrated and pushed to second class behind illegal aliens, and Blacks that are invited to suck up government entitlements. They do have a legitimate point.
Racial hatred is nearly always a two sided affair. Racial hatred in America is politically correct as long as the targets are heterosexual Caucasians.
If these people want to form a group demanding White rights and end reverse discrimination they would be better advised to create their own icon and flag rather than plagiarize on Adolph Hitler’s failed Third Reich. There can be no question that the Nazis had the snappiest uniforms, symbols and graphics of our time.
Hitler may have killed six million Jews but we must always remember his efforts cost nine million German lives along the way. National Socialism was a really bad idea.
National Socialism was just that a classic form of Marxist inspired Socialism.
Equally intellectually challenged are the whack-jobs that will show up violently confronting the confused Nazis. They are giving the Nazis far too much importance. I imagine we will see some great combat video of two equally stupid groups proving, Darwin’s theory of Evolution. Darwin wins again!
Weis Laments Chicago’s Code of Silence, Demands More Gun Control
Chicago, IL—Chicago’s police superintendent, Jody Weis blames a “code of silence” and a lack of gun laws for the spike in cold blooded murder. Wasn’t the City of Chicago declared a Gun Free Zone three decades ago?
Weis said that even the dying victims of shooting refuse to reveal the names of their killers. He complained that the lack cooperation by the community was the reason the shootings go unsolved. Weis devoted much of the nearly half-hour press conference to complaining that there are not enough gun bans and promised another lobbying effort in Springfield to end what few gun rights citizens have in Illinois.

Is Weis so stupid that he can’t figure out that the community knows that they can’t be protected by an undermanned, underpaid and poorly equipped police department?
Is Weis so stupid that he can’t figure out that law-abiding and forcibly unarmed citizens would be crazy to cooperate with police? Clearly you have a community where people are forbidden to protect themselves and the police are unable to protect them.
Is Weis so stupid that he does not realize that the cops working in the trenches want to see thugs stopped by trained and armed citizens that are willing to protect themselves, their families and businesses?
Is Weis so stupid he does not know that gun bans have never reduced gun crime, but in fact increases it?
Is Weis so stupid that he can’t understand that guns in the hands of the law-abiding save lives?
Weis actually said that without guns people can’t murder. Weis needs to pay a visit to the medical examiner who can explain how thousands have died over the years from fists, feet, rocks, sticks and knives. Of course there is plenty of strangulation, arson, bombing and using motor vehicles as deadly weapons.
This is a case where Chicago’s politicians and bureaucrats are so incredibly out of touch with reality. There is no hope under this corrupt and incompetent administration for this once great and relatively safe city to survive.
I have two videos. The first one shows surveillance video of a shotgun wielding thug robbing a Chicago dry cleaner and terrorizing the people behind the counter.
The second is the afternoon press conference given by Jody Weis. Noticeably missing was a single question about his running away from that in progress shooting/homicide two weeks ago. I guess Chicago’s reporters are too afraid of being cut off from police information to dare ask anything embarrassing.

Chicago’s Cops Are In A really Foul Mood
Chicago, IL—An arbitrator settled the three-year running dispute between the city administration and its police officers. Because of inflation and out-of-control city taxation the officers are actually getting pay cuts. Of course the city always has millions for public works projects they don’t need.
I waited to see just how the cops were feeling after the news and there is one word, hatred. They hate the mayor, city council and more than a million unwashed freeloaders that support the administration.
Retaliation is on the way. The cops I talked to vowed that no more revenue producing enforcement efforts will be part of their routine. The response times will be reduced as officer obey traffic laws and wait for adequate back up before dealing with potentially violent calls.
Chicago cops are out-gunned and driving patrol vehicles that need junkyard retirement. Look for more officers taking more sick time and reporting more on duty injuries. Younger cops will be looking for work in other jurisdictions or to change careers and more older cops will look for retirement.
The people of Chicago need to arm themselves and prepare to fight or move to a safe location outside the city. Arrests will be way down as crime goes way up. As the street thugs learn they can control the city this will prove to be a dangerous year.
Don’t Confuse Being Anti-Socialist With Anti-Government
It happened under the Leftist Clinton Administration and it’s now more pronounced than ever under that Marxist Barack Obama. Conservative Americans are distrustful and greatly concerned about liberty, freedom and the U.S. Constitution. The Lleftists holding office claim that those who resist their policy are anti-government.
Our government can only operate under the Constitution. If those in power abuse the rights of Americans fighting them is not fighting the government but rather fighting piracy. Acting under color of law as a pirate is criminal and loyal Americans can be expected to kill pirates even if they hold office.
Pirate politicians that act in secret, use trickery to avoid proper public notice and step on the rights of or confiscate the money of citizens can expect to be taken out by patriots.
It is and should be a very dangerous business for pirate politicians because Americans cherish freedom and know blood must sometimes be shed to preserve our Constitution and way of life.
A good pirate is a dead pirate. If you are a public official, you take our property and liberty at your peril.
Liberty Rules In Arizona!
Phoenix, AZ—Governor Jan Brewer signed into law a significant measure of liberty for all law-abiding citizens. Carrying a concealed weapon is no longer a crime. No permits are required but the gun-packing people must not be convicted felons, mental defects or drug addicts. Those convicted of domestic violence are also prohibited. To enjoy the new liberty you must be at least 21 years of age. I call it a "new" liberty since it has been gone so long.
Arizona now joins Vermont and Alaska as states that have fully legalized self-defense.
Those Arizonans that wish to carry their weapons in the 40 or so states that recognize Arizona CCW permits should keep renewing theirs. Also the display of the CCW permits during police traffic stops will be appreciated by police officers.
The current process by the Department of public safety to issue CCW permits will continue for those wishing to obtain them.
Just because the training requirement has been discontinued does not mean training is not important. The training can save lives and keep you out of jail. Knowing the laws and liability of the justifiable use of deadly force is very important for anyone that refuses to be a crime victim. Contact the NRA or the Arizona State Rifle Association for training referrals. The Department of Public safety has a list of training schools on their website too.
The new law takes effect 90 days after the current legislative session ends, probably putting the effective date in July or August. I don’t suspect that cops, prosecutors or the courts will want to do much with people that jump the gun on the timing of the new law.

“The Coward” Will Personally Be On Patrol Tonight In Chicago
Chicago, IL—Police superintendent Jody Weis came out in the sunshine today long enough to tell reporters he was personally going out on patrol in the inner city tonight in light of the nasty violence of the last 24 hours.
I can’t help but believe this is just cheap publicity stunt to mitigate his running away from an in progress shooting homicide where the killer escaped two weeks ago. Weis has to somehow replace the image he left with the public with a new one perhaps of him actually arresting and frisking someone.
The official complaint of Weis’ cowardice from retired sergeant John Northen will not be erased from departmental history at least for decades. It will be a big part Weis’ pathetic legacy.
I know the officers on patrol want no part of this dog and pony show and will consider the superintendant’s efforts now a major hindrance rather than help. There will also be real concern for reporters getting hurt covering Weis’ theatrical endeavor.
In case you missed it the first time watch Jody Weis run away:
