Tuesday: Oh I've heard about that.. I think Hubbard just took the likes of Christianity and/or other religions like Krishna and gave it a sci-fi twist.

... In Zen there is the story of how a devout monk training under a false master still achieved enlightenment and could when asked to walk, on water. It's not so much to me that they may believe in 'aliens', as to a certain degree reincarnation as taught in many religions cannot deny the possibility that we have lived on other worlds. I object to the way the people are used. One story of how a woman who was married could not tell her husband she was pregnant till 8 months gone is terrible.

Ex members of the official Scientology org are now it appears trying to start a reformation, to try and take it back to the early days when it was more a family then a business.

must have been the peanuts

..Interesting. Scientology as a religion was (according to original followers) ok.. then Hubbard died and da new management changed things. Money then became God.

Tuesday: Depends on how you define 'cult' .. Money changers would be more accurate.. just like some of the Christian Evangelists, or like one of the so called Christian channels here in the UK...

My.. what a big stone the presenter wore on her ring finger.. I wonder if it had anything to do with that she was the wife and co owner of the TV channel.

Tonight's Panorama is a revisit to the world of Scientology. Will the same events happen as last time?? Will the Scientologists stalk the BBC crew?? Will they diss everyone that speaks to the reporter dragging up any piece of dirt they can?

If they were so wonderful.. why do that?

Last night's Panorama was on how investigations into 'war crimes' committed by the British Army were blocked or delayed by the chain of command. It appears that the breaches in the Geneva convention were encouraged by the USA despite a 30 odd year ban after inquiries into the same sort of instances in Northern Ireland.

... As one person commentated.... "How can you try and win the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people if you are doing what you are saying is wrong to do"

A leaked report by the Red Cross into the treatment of prisoners in Iraq by servicemen sent to the MOD and British Army condemned the treatment of prisoners and the covering up of such. In the new year a report will be released into an incident where there is a disagreement over how many dead Iraqis were transported to a depot after an attack on a British column and how many were alive.

According to a recent poll, likely voters get their political news
primarily from cable television. Among cable channels, 42 percent, a
plurality, watch Fox News for its political coverage. Only 12 percent
said they watched MSNBC. What's more, most likely voters don't like or
have never heard of MSNBC's prime time talent.

“I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

In recent news .. a 100 strong wind farm has started producing green energy off the English coast... the power produced is enough to power 200,000 homes.

Citizen groups unmasking Dem voter fraud
Ed Lasky
We do the job because the government and media lackeys will not. Massive alleged voter fraud is uncovered by a group of concerned citizens down in Texas. The culprit? The Democrats and Barack Obama's favorite "union" - the thugs at the Service Employees International Union.

A group of people took it upon themselves to work at polling places in 2008 and observed - and were shocked - by what they perceived to be voter fraud. Their next step was to create a citizen-based grassroots group to collect publicly available voting data and analyze what they found (with the help of donated computers and volunteer helpers). They admit they did not know what they were doing at first but where there is a will there is a way.

Reports Fox News (the unlackey network):

"The first thing we started to do was look at houses with more than six voters in them" Engelbrecht said, because those houses were the most likely to have fraudulent registrations attached to them. "Most voting districts had 1,800 if they were Republican and 2,400 of these houses if they were Democratic . . .

"But we came across one with 24,000, and that was where we started looking."

"Vacant lots had several voters registered on them. An eight-bed halfway house had more than 40 voters registered at its address," Engelbrecht said. "We then decided to look at who was registering the voters."

Their work paid off. Two weeks ago the Harris County voter registrar took their work and the findings of his own investigation and handed them over to both the Texas secretary of state's office and the Harris County district attorney.

Most of the findings focused on a group called Houston Votes, a voter registration group headed by Steve Caddle, who also works for the Service Employees International Union. Among the findings were that only 1,793 of the 25,000 registrations the group submitted appeared to be valid. The other registrations included one of a woman who registered six times in the same day; registrations of non-citizens; so many applications from one Houston Voters collector in one day that it was deemed to be beyond human capability; and 1,597 registrations that named the same person multiple times, often with different signatures.



Minnesota also has a citizens group that had enough of being abused and took matters in their own hands to reveal that the Minnesota Senate race that gave us the hapless fool Al Franken was also rent with voter fraud that powered his victory over Norm Coleman. Secretary of States are supposed to monitor elections to ensure honesty in voting.

But with George Soros and the shadowy Democracy Alliance working to elect friendly to fraud Secretary of States across the nation, how likely are we to have truly honest elections? Thankfully, in the freshest expression of democracy in many years, we have citizens stepping up to the plate and hitting some homers.

More from Paul Mason's report on Glen Beck...

".....A local pastor kicks off the proceedings. Beck - and the other speakers - he claims, "will be speaking for God": a claim Beck is not around to hear and will later contradict. Not only this, but Beck and others are the target of unspecified people who would like to kill them, the pastor insists: hence, we the audience must pray for their safety.

Next the compere, who says that America is under siege from more than just al-Qaeda:

"Today we're not only being attacked by terrorists but by those who believe in different principles: our children are being indoctrinated with liberal views on a daily basis."

And consider this, from an Iraq-style deck of "wanted cards" on sale in the sparsely populated exhibition space: a picture of Barack Obama, framed with the legend:

"Trust me. I am not a Kenyan born, lying, arrogant Muslim communist that hates America - really I'm not: Barack Hussein Obama, President USA, Socialist/Communist . The Ultimate Race Card. Done in 2102," complete with the caveat: "This is not a quotation of this person merely a funny anecdotal statement."

http://www.novembersmostwanted.com/

...Beck spoke for one hour thirty minutes, to an audience of about 2,000 paying up to $125 (£80) a seat. Having been whipped up by the previous speakers, and videos eliding images of D-Day with 9/11 and Fallujah, they were now whipped down by Glenn Beck.

His website, TheBlaze.com had already warned followers to desist from wearing historical costumes and toting self-scrawled banners open to the accusation of bigotry. So the crowd were mainly wearing Beck t-shirts ($15) and, some, beatific smiles."

Looking down on people isn't exactly a new platform for Kerry...

During the 2004 Presidential election campaign, Kerry said of Bush, "I can't believe I'm losing to this idiot."

And in 2006, he famously insulted the intelligence of our fighting men and women with this gem:

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."

Regarding Kerry's recent snobbery, William Jacobson of Legal Insurrection points out that it's not uneducated voters that are the problem; it's Democrats that are simply out of touch.

"It just continues the Democrats' theme that the reason people are upset is because they don't understand," he said. "They're not smart enough. That sort of rhetoric just gets people even more upset."

A poll at the Boston Herald suggests that the accusation of ignorance belongs squarely on the shoulders of the Democratic leadership. Only 4% of the readers believe it is the voters that are uninformed about the Dems, while 86% say that the Democratic leadership is actually uninformed about the voters.

Glenn Beck is supposed to be a demagogue. A fear monger. A racist. But those who have been around him lately are having a hard time coming to those conclusions.

Enter Paul Mason. Writing for the BBC, he recounts a recent demagogue-less Beck speech. “Once Glenn Beck starts speaking the language becomes restrained, moderate, not even a hint of euphemism or innuendo,” he writes, “indeed an insistence that the audience must reach out and persuade their political enemies, not hate them.”

“[T]here was no hate in the speech I heard,” Mason adds later. “And there was very little politics. In the process of becoming the figurehead for the American right, Beck has found new depths within his own personality and ‘got religion’ even more than he had it before.”

Mason isn’t alone in his observations. Tim Kraulidis was assigned as Beck’s escort at another recent speaking engagement. Kraulidis describes the events he saw as intriguing. “I was impressed with the politeness, sincerity, and friendliness of this man,” he writes. “He is a very conscientious man.” He goes on to explain that Beck fulfilled every picture request, went out of his way to greet volunteers and production staff, and noted that Beck’s attitude was such that “it was not all about him.” No hate speech. No fear mongering.

Pedro Martínez: If true, then it follows that clueless voters are the ones that put Obama in power. That's something I can believe in!

FOX NEWS LIES AGAIN

The REAL story in Greece over the riots was due to the Greek government going almost bankrupt. Which meant the government (as part of the deal from the EU to bail them out) had to cut freeze public sector jobs and wages.

Another Dem leader blames stupid voters for not supporting Dems
Thomas Lifson
The Death Wish Democrats added another member yesterday, as Senator John Kerry calimed that voters were, in essence, too stupid to vote for his party.

Hillary Chabot reports in the Boston Herald:

A testy U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry yesterday blamed clueless voters with short attention spans for the uphill battle beleaguered Democrats are facing against Republicans across the nation.

"We have an electorate that doesn't always pay that much attention to what's going on so people are influenced by a simple slogan rather than the facts or the truth or what's happening," Kerry told reporters after touring the Boston Medical Center yesterday.


Yeah, that'll work.

Tuesday: They will see it for what it is: A well timed smear designed by the lying Left to help the Democrats win in November. They can't run on their record so the Liberal Left has to scrape bottom.

Reagan 'responds' to Obama and his supporters
David Paulin
Here is a must-see Youtube clip in which Ronald Reagan serves up a civics lesson -- talking about American exceptionalism, patriotism, and the importance of teaching these things to our children. And as the title of this Youtube clip suggests, it's as if Reagan were responding directly to Obama and his postmodern, anti-American, and post-colonial worldview.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yS4yf723kmY&feature=player_embedded

CNN, whose
poll has lagged considerably behind other polling outfits in gauging
Obama's unpopularity has released a survey that shows the president
tanking with 42% approval rating:

The
president's approval rating now stands at 42 percent - an all time low
in CNN polling and 8 points lower than where Obama was only three
weeks ago. Moreover, 56 percent of all Americans think the president
has fallen short of their expectations. (More poll results)

The
president's sagging poll numbers couldn't come at a worse time for
congressional Democrats, themselves facing a nine-point deficit in the
so-called "generic ballot" question heading into the midterm elections.
In fact, the president's approval rating is the same as that of

vote for a candidate.
