I bet he does! Look at the circus around Bernanke’s
reappointment to the Fed. Didn’t matter. Sottomayor is
huge criminal and a member of La Raza, a blatantly
racist, supremacist organization. Didn’t matter. On the
contrary, it’s what got her the job. Hope you are right
and I am wrong though!!!

I don’t think Sunstein is going to the Supreme Court any more.  Imagine the circus of his confirmation hearings.

ITW:

I guess. I miss the context tho.

Anarcissie, always a pleasure, and I would add that not only was the article hilarious, it is now becoming open policy under Cass Sunstein himself! He is also on a fast-track onto the Supreme Court!

This site and the countless others where free speech is still possible are directly affected. Everyone should (must?) be aware of this, people, because YOU are among the targets. It is important to identify and expose these sorts of paid disrupters, which, fortunately, is generally very easy. Knowing that one of Obama’s “czars” is hiring these folks is essential information, and the most profound possible vindication of general “conspiracy theory” concerns and premises.

The latest update on the story is here:
http://theragblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/rag-blog-scoop-about-cognitive.html

A wealth of primary source reference materials are linked to to here:
http://slashdot.org/story/10/01/14/2226219/Obama-Appointee-Sunstein-Favors-Infiltrating-Online-Groups

For those who don’t have the time to read these links, the basic idea is that there will be tens of thousands of paid disinformation agents infiltrating websites and physical meetings. They openly state that they will also attempt to incite crime and violence in the hope of making arrests.

This conspiracy to undermine conspiracy theorists (ROFL!) is now broken wide open and is all over the alternative media. Wouldn’t he be great if TruthDig ran something on it?

Yes this is scary, but it is also deeply gratifying from the standpoint that it reveals the abject, helpless panic of the elites and officials.

The most comprehensive article I have been able to find seems to be this:
http://www.infowars.com/more-on-cass-sunstein/
It contains a full bibliography of, and much background detail about, the sicko-czar in the research links at the bottom of the page.

Heads up people!

Hey, Fidler…Since you compared Danny Glover to Pat Robertson, should I compare Chuck Norris to Reid?

rfidler, January 15 at 7:27 pm

Pot meet kettle heh? Speaking of dicks, how are you doing?

DieDaily—that blog article was hilarious.  The idea of dealing with the spread of conspiracy theorizing by conspiratorially infiltrating groups of conspiracy theorists—well, all I can say is, thank God I’m a paranoid and can appreciate that sort of thing.

I have taken care to plant stories about this in, I hope, fertile ground.

ardee:

GOD! I swore I’d ignore you from now on, but you are such a dick! Do you have ANY other way of responding that doesn’t involve insult and personal attack?

Shut the fuck up.

Ya got yer birthers on the right-
Ya got yer truthers on the left-

They all share a few things in common- loneliness, alienation, and the giant need to have a few shots of tequila and get laid. (Where IS that salt shaker?)

To Ardee,

Dear Sir, you must have an sharp eye, and must be a unbelievable fine observer, to see that this men Chuck Norris is an Human-being, and not an Buffoon.

You are a kind of artist to, you make people laugh, with your laughable writings.

Coming from a buffoon like you ( one who has shown blatant bigotry in referring to Muslims within his own and other nations in extremely derogatory fashion) there is no sting…...

Die Daily, the blog link suggested fills a void, seems possible delusions of fact or fiction have moved back to Never Never Land?

Yeah, Leefeller, exactly. Someday, when there aren’t
so many hundreds of thousands of obvious but suppressed facts for them to bring to light by
sidestepping the corporate media, that’s probably how
conspiracy theorists will have to work. Here’s one
for you that should hit close to home:

http://theragblog.blogspot.com/2010/01/got-fascism-
obama-advisor-promotes.html

There are a lot of jobs available now in the co-intel
pro industry. I was wondering, Leefeller, how did you
get hooked up, and can I too?

Conspiracy theorists need answers to something which is unexplained, their comfort zone has a need for answers, so if none are available, it seems they can always conjure some up!

drbhelthi, heck ya! You said it bro! And you barely
scratched the surface. What is is NOT very well
documented is the official version of reality!!!
Primary sources, primary sources…that’s what it’s all
about.

I am very sorry for your medical condition that makes you a victim of permanent PMS. I hope you are cured some day.

Paranoia?  Conspiracy theory?  Terms used by propagandists.

The findings of several professional organizations about 11 Sept 2001, are well documented.  The Chronicles of Chip Tatum and other former CIA agents are genuine.  The Chronicles of Ted Gunderson former FBI Chief of the larger southern area of California, are well documented.  The testimony of Sibel Edmonds and similar former insiders, is well documented.  Articles in the Washington Post from the early 1980s about Reagan-Bush night-life escapades are well documented.  The book by former Nebraska senator, Atty. John W. DeCamp, “The Franklin Cover-Up: Child Abuse, Satanism, and Murder in Nebraska”  is well documented.  The findings of Mr. Jim Garrison of New Orleans are well documented. The information at http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20070405.htm has been authenticated by one American and one German historian, both reputable authors.  The current repetition of the depression of the 1920s is thought by most of us to be real, and once again, traceable to the “Federal Reserve,” manipulated by the “Queen´s men,” allegedly.

Paranoia is a condition that results from fantasy activity. None of the above is either fantasy or paranoia.  Use of the word paranoia is appropriate only by qualified professionals in a mental health setting.  When one sees the words “paranoia” or “conspiracy theory” in print currently, or hears their unqualified usage on a “Talk Show,” one can immediately conclude that their usage is distorted, and which results from the distorted thought patterns of the users of the terms, who are propagandists of some type.

hello. a conspiracy involves cooperating individuals working together in a group. maybe you think you can be equal to a group. for the benefit of humanity, we monitor group activities. if in the future i could beam Chuck Norris beside me to be my co-conspirator for truth and justice, i would be honored. having him watch my collective back is a privilege we experience in God’s time, and i am grateful. the more questions i have about my reality, the safer i feel. right or wrong conspiracy theorists inspire thought.

Chuck Norris may have a point.  I just listened to a segment on NPR today about
how U.S. Defense money, millions of $$$, gets funneled to the Taliban
inadvertently through Afghanistan trucking/road companies.  True story.  How
could intelligence not know of this?  And maybe if we’re lucky we might even find
certain missing black boxes in Obama’s secret vault!

I had lunch with Mr. Bill and he turned out to be a real nice guy, sort of especial only being six inches tall. Though I found his politics sucked, so I slammed the Taxi door on him, right after I got his autograph!  NO! No!———-N!

Re: ardee

Your comment: “We had a barbeque and the guy came off as a human being, not pretentious whatsoever. I may not agree with his political beliefs but that doesnt make the guy a buffoon….”

That is soo…ooo….oooo…ooo… way cool.  Can you define “human being”? (In your terms, of course)

Like you, certainly I think when “the guy” can actually “come off” as a “human being” this is a cause for rejoicing….. no?

Without “Interpol” there is no “Shadow”. Bah!

Norris is Norris. He’s partially awake to a few
things, and partly being led down the garden path.
For instance, he can’t seem to wrap his far-too-
trusting head around the fact that Glen Beck is an
evil shill. But what is interesting is the phenomenon
itself. As Noam Chomsky never tires of pointing out,
when people are getting no answers from the gummint
and the controlled media, they turn to any source of
information that has internal consistency. So when
Rush Limbaugh says “blah blah blah” it doesn’t matter
when he’s dead wrong. To the disaffected public, they
grasp that their instinct that “something is terribly
wrong” (which is correct) is being validated, and
there is internal logic to the load of crap (in
general) that they are then handed. The left has
failed so thoroughly to provide any useful
information that they have to turn to someone.

Of course, since facts are facts, anyone who does any
reasonable level of investigation must invariably
turn away from the left/right circus show. The truth
is typically non-partisan. Lies are virtually always
couched partisan terms, since the as yet unawakened
will hook into that partisanship at a primal level.

Chuck should stick to poor acting in bad movies.

He supports Huckabee, enough said.

I like this. I think this is funny.

von bargen, January 13 at 4:09 pm:
‘Considering the quality of the articles in Truthdig, I’m disappointed by the level of commnent from readers. I understand Anarcissie’s concern about not getting the truth, but I challenge her to make the effort to do the research necessary to find the truth. ...’

There are a number of people reading and writing here who see the article-comment contrast the other way around.  It depends what one sees as quality, I guess.  I don’t regard recitations of the sort of ruling-class propaganda found in the major media as of vary high quality these days, but others may be comforted by it.

In the particular case of the present story, while Chuck Norris doesn’t have any facts, he does have his right-wing instincts, and right-wingers often have good instincts—something the Left seems to have lost when it lost its teeth.  Anything to do with the police is sinister, and there is something particularly odd in setting a small, inconsequential office off-limits to public investigation.  It is odd to portray a five-person enterprise as some sort of repository of hot secrets; what do they have, a receptionist and four armed guards?  Won’t al-Qaeda or the Mafia just come along and kick the door down?  The Newsweek story was simply another dutiful piece of tut-tut har-har boilerplate, with child pornographers and drug dealers thrown in for extra flavor.

My guess is that Mr. O and his administration, like most of them, are doing what the powerful always do, and expanding secrecy as much as they can; this office just happened to get on the list.  That sort of thing is sinister enough for me; it doesn’t need to have a specific evil purpose.  What do you like about it?

I doubt if there is any way I can find the truth; it is a case of the Cretan Paradox.  The best I can do is subject the tale to a little literary criticism, hoping to improve the quality of the fables we are told.

This is just another piece of junk celebrity pandering, and I
really don’t see norris making straight forward efforts through
his celebrity to help bring information, real information, to the
people that would create some faction that could be used to
expose and protest what the real criminals are doing to our
government, the main part being, how this republic’s
democracy of representation by, for and of the people has
been subverted to the aristocracy representation of those who
criminally bribe the people we elect making this no different
from that monarchial aristocratic government we fought in the
american revolution to become what was the United States of
America.

IF chuck could do anything, but I rather think he really finds that he isn’t as effective as maybe he would want to be to do that.

For Anarcissie, in case she/he didn’t see the link (to Newsweek, not WAPO) The story is not odd, it is the spin that Norris et al have put on it.  This weekend the Fox News people even dismissed this as an issue and Lord knows, they don’t cut the administration any slack.

http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/declassified/archive/2010/01/12/chuck-norris-hunts-for-obama-s-secret-vault-as-interpol-conspiracy-theories-get-wilder.aspx

Really, there’s something odd about this story.

Conspiracy theories are like mushrooms; they grow in the dark and feed on decay.  I believe people are becoming more and more aware that they are not being told the truth, indeed, are not getting anything meaningful out of the government and the media.  We have a great desire to know and understand, some of us, anyway, and if we can’t get the facts we make them up.  As in this case, trivial as it is.  It doesn’t make any sense.

We in Europe have learned to split op artistic people in 1 the artist, and 2 the human, it makes it all more clear.

You can be a great artist but an humble men, as the Roman emperor said, when he was defeated, big. Emperor with the mind of a small men in the street, when he was afraid of his end.

Thats real live, and real human thinking, before dead we are all very humble, we go back to the cradle of live.

A few of us know a lot about a lot of persons´ marital problems and breakups. I cannot recall one single situation in which it was clearly apparent that one or the other was totally responsible for the difficulty and breakup.

Nor does knowing >part< of the details of one breakup qualify one to judge character any more than interacting with such a person at a barbecue, which allows participants to relax.

Comspiracy theories are becoming less theory and more factual, and increasingly. Usage of the term “conspiracy theory” in an attempt to scapegoat someone is in itself questionable.

We are all so easily charmed. On the basis of a chance meeting at a barbecue years ago, one reader has decided Norris is not what he appears to be to many of us.  His first wife might have a different opinion, by the way.  I know a bit about that.

The evidence that Norris has gone round the bend on conspiracy theories about Obama is out there for all to see.  He was talking this way before Obama even got elected. (My previous comment that he was qualified,based on his other successes was meant to be sarcastic, by the way.)

Anarcissie, there are two possibilities as to why
Interpol will be immune from FOIA. One is that the
government will use this to stash documents whenever
they like. For instance, any XXX-gate documents could
be “investigated” by this Interpol unit and would
become their property (and therefore more secret).
The other one, and I’m not ruling this one out yet,
is that Interpol is investigating the incredibly
festering and corrupt DoJ itself. It’s REMOTELY
possible that Obama is going rogue on his handlers
(obviously not due to conscience, duh, but possibly
under pressure) and is getting immunity of some sort
from Interpol in return for letting them clean-house
in the US. I’d love to believe it’s the latter and it
may be, but it’s probably just another FOIA-ducking
gummint scam.

If Anarcissie does a little more digging (more than Norris bothered to do)by just reading the whole article,  she’ll get the answer to her otherwise valid question.

This has nothing to do with “working men” or political parties.
Obviously, Norris was a successful entrepeneur, actor/producer and martial arts expert.  By virtue of that, Norris has shown that he can satisfactorily grasp the nuances of international politics and international law enforcement.  That means that his opinions about those issues are worthy of consideration by anyone interested in fair and balanced weighing of the facts.

Do you see the problem here?  No matter what the issue and no matter how clear the truth may be, it is easy to find a nut like this so that media outlets can say “On the other hand, some say…” and then create a fictitious controversy where there really is none.

Why does the Interpol office with its staff of five have highly secret documents which must be exempted from the FOIA?  This seems like a reasonable question to me.

When you don’t measure up, the cheap way of dealing with it is to condem. Then what usually follows, is a long stint of jerking off your anger toward someone you believe to be a safe target.

There’s a reason why Mr. Norris has such strong appeal to working men and women on the right, and it’s not because people on the right are stupid, at all.

If the Democrats ever hope to be a party for everyone, their going to have to learn why they lost the working mans vote. Every time they seek the support of Unions and then turn around and betray them afterward, as a political expediency, then it just puts one more nail in the coffin of the Democratic parties future..

Maybe we can hire Chuck Norris to find out were all those missing socks go!

Or as some seemingly already conclude about everything, the Zionist’s must have done it! What ever it is?

Norris and Palin in 2012!  One can hear the Democrats now,  crying; “This like having Fox in the White House”. 

There will be tea bags in every home and Burning cross’s in every neighbor hood. Religion will be opt out, only then do you get a burning cross? Sounds almost socialist?

This feels so good and tingly, I feel like winking!

Are Republicans allowed to be correct about anything?
Nawwww, heck no! So don’t you dare look into Norris’
claims. Remember, the facts don’t and shouldn’t enter
into this. Just affiliations, reputations. We must all
make sure to keep firmly to our Dem/Left and Rep/Right
pens, since it’s been working so very well for us. Why
fix a system that works so well? ‘Sides, if too many of
us escape, it could lead to (gasp) Anarchy!

When we consider that the same NAZI types who invented the CIA “disinformation program” also invented the terms, “conspiracy theory,” more recently the term “Al Kaida,” comprehension is swift.

One minor news network recently published 33, yes thirty-three alleged “conspiracies” that have been verified to be reality, not theories.  The family Bush and the CIA “disinformation program.”  Call in the trash truck.

Driving the money-changers out of the temple is a repetitive task.

Norris is a buffoon. 
******************

Ever meet the guy?

My eldest daughter went to high school with his niece. Upon occasion I drove her and her friend to visit her dad who lived in St.Helena. One time in walks Chuck, first time I made the connection that Jessica Norris was related to THE Chuck Norris.

We had a barbeque and the guy came off as a human being, not pretentious whatsoever. I may not agree with his political beliefs but that doesnt make the guy a buffoon….

The USA is transparent as a block beton, nobody knows?,who is who, their is something very rotten in the strait of Danmark, or could it be the USA.

They have all their small compartments ready to put you in with an small label around your neck, we have the following tastes : anti-semiet, valse-conspiracy-theories, anti-patriot, and others.

Thats how they make people shut up, to label them.

Why is the term conspiracy theorist, when used to describe someone, take on a negative connotation?

People conspire everyday. Many times they hold public office; sometimes they hold board seats of corporations.

Personally, I believe in facts. Sometimes they are conspiracy facts.

Fact: The Interpol office in New York does indeed get an exemption from the Freedom of Information Act under Obama’s order.

Did someone conspire to give such authority? Probably not, but it is not a theory. It has already happened.

So who watches the watchers?

The ‘old man of Texas’ gonna save us! Save us Marshal Chuck, save us.

you forgot to mention his real life role - IDIOT

I have a friend who suffers from Dementia Americana.  He watches too much prime time crime, and believes that the most believable conspiracy theories are conspiracy theories about conspiracy theories.
  Are you scared yet?  Next step:  Down the rabbit hole where the sun don’t never shine and “Eureka” is the name of a Secret Federal Bureau that sucks up clues and suspicions from all over the world, and little green men chew them up and mix them all together.  Then the Bureau spits them back out for us to re-assemble into even more scarey conspiracy theories.
  Watch what happens in next week’s episode.
