More Than 2 Million in D.C.: Prescott, AZ and All Over the U.S. Too





1.5 Million At Least



Mason Weaver speaks at the TEA rally to state: "I came here because I thought you might want to hear a black man speak without a teleprompter."






1.5 million, at least, jammed Washington to protest the regime. Some estimates are even higher: perhaps up to 2 million.

9/11: Obama Declares "Interfaith Day of Service"

Americans may have noticed that all of the hijackers on 9/11 were Muslims. Despite this simple fact, Obama has declared 9/11 an Interfaith Day of Service in solidarity with his Muslim roots. The details of the Day are explained and how State Department employees are to be sensitive to the religious requirements of Islam.


The focus of the Interfaith Day is Islamic. The action request asks State personnel to support mosques: “Organize a food-drive for the end of Ramadan with religious leaders and citizens in Muslim communities to donate to a local mosque or community.” And it directs State personnel to a handy “list of Ramadan 2009 outreach materials for Muslim communities.”


In this country we have the separation of church and state but nothing of the sort separates the state and the mosque. The State Department is organizing donation drives for mosques.


Obama stated at his White House Ramadan dinner:

“Islam, as we know, is part of America. Together we have a responsibility to foster engagement grounded in mutual interest and mutual respect.” He said that this was one of his fundamental commitments as president both at home and abroad. That is central to the new beginning that I’ve sought between the United States and Muslims around the world and that is a commitment that we can renew once again during this holy season.”


Obama is pandering to groups sympathetic to destroying our country. Who needs al-Qaeda when we have Obama.

SUBJECT: INTERFAITH DAY OF SERVICE

REF: 09 STATE 77580

1. This is an action request (Para 4). The Department encourages posts to consider organizing an Interfaith Day of Service in their host countries as a way to commemorate the anniversary of the tragic events of September 11, 2001.

2. President Obama called for interfaith service to foster collaboration between people across the world in his Cairo speech: "Indeed, faith should bring us together. And that's why we're forging service projects in America to bring together Christians, Muslims, and Jews. Around the world, we can turn dialogue into interfaith service, so bridges between peoples lead to action -- whether it is combating malaria in Africa, or promoting relief after a natural disaster."

3. Interfaith service has been an inextricable part of Americans' dedication to serving others, which as early as 1831 was identified as a distinctive American characteristic by Frenchman Alexis de Tocqueville. In State 77580, Secretary Clinton specifically encouraged Department of State employees to support President Obama's domestic United We Serve campaign that embraces this tradition of community service. By participating in an Interfaith Day of Service, posts have the unique opportunity to expand the domestic commemoration of 9/11 as the National Day of Service and Remembrance -- as signed into law by President Obama on April 21, 2009 -- into a global initiative.

4. ACTION REQUEST: Posts are encouraged to plan an Interfaith Day of Service to commemorate 9/11 that would send a message of goodwill, cooperation, and shared interest to their host countries and their religious communities. To accommodate posts in countries where Muslims may be observing Ramadan until/about September 19, posts are requested to plan an Interfaith Day of Service between September 11 and October 18, 2009. We encourage you to bring together leaders of different religious backgrounds and identify jointly a priority project. Those leaders would encourage their members to join mission employees and resident Americans in working together on a community project. We request that posts keep their regional bureaus informed of their 9/11 commemoration plans so that the information can be made available to interested USG officials and agencies.

5. Sustainability is a key theme of President Obama's United We Serve campaign and Secretary Clinton's remarks at the Global Philanthropy Forum where she announced the appointment of the Special Representative for Global Partnerships (S/GPI) and described the Department's role as a convener, catalyst, and collaborator by fostering public-private partnerships with groups such as faith-based organizations. The Interfaith Day of Service is an opportunity for posts to expand their contact bases, initiate long-term partnerships with civil society, and spread goodwill in observing September 11, 2001. Some programming ideas and suggestions are listed in paragraph six, however posts are encouraged to be creative based on the needs, religions/sects, and opportunities in their country.

6. Programming Ideas
- Meet with interfaith leaders or an interfaith organization before the Interfaith Day of Service to identify a local development issue. For example, Interfaith Youth Core and Tony Blair's Faith Foundation collaboratively identified malaria as a problem in Africa and supported a service project for youth to raise funds and show the film "The Story of a Bed Net" in their faith communities.

- Form local partnerships:

- Organize a food-drive for the end of Ramadan with religious leaders and citizens in Muslim communities to donate to a local mosque or community, such as this activity in Dubai in 2008:

http://www.facebook.com/groups.php?id=28354#/group.php?gid= 5998096393&ref=search.

- Partner with universities or secondary schools to organize a day of awareness-raising, school clean-up, park rehabilitation, or a donation drive that includes students from different faith traditions.

- Work with the Red Cross/Red Crescent or a local hospital to promote the giving of blood and partner with different religious leaders to involve their congregations.

- Organize a free music workshop for a neighborhood where

STATE 00089406 002 OF 002

musicians from different faiths can share their traditions. This event could be a good way to promote a longer term arts education project, for example. - Set up an interfaith sports competition for youth that includes interfaith teams and incorporates skill-building activities.

- Organize a writing competition at a local school on respect for people of all faiths.

7. Resources
- Communities@State's new Religion and Global Affairs Community can be a resource for posts to submit service ideas. Washington can help connect posts to an interfaith and/or youth organization active in their host countries. Posts can participate in the Community at: http://www.intelink.gov/communities/state/ediplomacy/archiv es/new_community_r.html

- The Global Partnership Initiative (S/GPI) has developed new tools and talking points for the Department's efforts at the nexus of faith and foreign policy. These can be accessed on the intranet at http://gpi.state.gov, on the internet at http://www.state.gov/partnerships/, or by contacting Rob Lalka (lalkart@state.gov).

- The Office of the Special Representative for Muslim Communities (S/SRMC) can be a resource. Contact information: tel. 202-647-7710 or via email SSRMC

- INFOCENTRAL is a repository of information that all posts can use for outreach. A list of Ramadan 2009 outreach materials for Muslim communities can be found at:
https://infocentral.state.gov/info-topics/democracy--human- rights/democracy--human-rights/archive/ramadan - America.gov focuses on the theme of American Giving in several articles:

http://search.state.gov/search?oe=utf8&ie=utf8&q=American+G iving&filter=0&entqr=3&ud=1&sort=date%3AD%3AL%3Ad1&output=x ml_no_dtd&lr=lang_en&client=americagov&proxystylesheet=amer icagov&getfields=*&site=americagov&Submit.x=40&Submit.y=14 - Serve.gov, the United We Serve website, lists service opportunities in the U.S. that could provide ideas for similar activities at posts.

8. Reporting
IIP would appreciate a brief description of any plans for an interfaith service activity sent to your IIP policy officer in advance of the event. Following the event, IIP could potentially use photos and text about the activity on the English or language versions of America.gov and/or a social networking platform. Photos should be e-mailed to state61per@photos.flickr.com. The subject line will become the title of the photo. The body of the e-mail should include:

A description of the photo which will become the caption A photo credit in parentheses at the end of the description A carriage return followed by: tags: #service

If you have any questions about uploading photos, please contact Jason Katz (katzjx@state.gov). Please report your activities on Mission Activity Tracker and to your regional bureaus.

9. This is an exciting opportunity to answer the President's call to interfaith service and the Secretary's commitment to partnerships. We hope posts will find the Interfaith Day of Service a beneficial way to commemorate September 11 abroad and to promote goodwill in their host countries. 10. Minimize considered. CLINTON BT #9406

UPDATE: OT but not
Washington, D.C. - On September 25th there will be a national prayer gathering of Muslims on the west front of the U.S. Capitol Building. They are expecting at least 50,000 to attend from mosques all across America. They will gather to pray from 4:00 AM until 7:00 PM. The gathering will take place by the site where U.S. Presidents have been inaugurated since 1981. The organizers say that it was Obama's inauguration speech in January and his speech broadcast from Egypt in June that gave them the idea for this prayer gathering on Capitol Hill.

Police Call: Report to Take Your Flu Shot



Jane Bürgermeister lives in Vienna and, while working as a medical editor, was horrified to learn in early 2009 of the fiasco in which a Baxter International research facility in Orth-Donau, Austria, sent a quantity of human H3N2 viral material to 18 European laboratories.

Such a supply of experimental material would have been totally normal--except that in this instance the H3N2 had been somehow contaminated with live H5N1... the far more lethal Avian Flu.

As a medical editor, Jane immediately realized the import of what had happened - and what had nearly happened - and raised the alarm. But no-one in the Austrian media was interested. She then took matters into her own hands and filed legal charges against those who she considered the perpetrators to be.

Not long after Jane was dismissed from her job without explanation. Undeterred, she sought support on the internet and continued her campaign.

Health Care Rationing is Coming

The stage is being set by the majority in Congress realizing of course that the people do not want rationing. The Democrats will argue that Senate leaders have been forced to use a partisan budget tool known as reconciliation to pass a health bill through the Senate by a simple majority, instead of 60 votes. The Republicans can not realistically agree allowing the Democrats they their hand has been forced. The one people forced in this nonsense is the ordinary, average, hard-working American who has to put up with this nonsense from the gangs in Washington. Perhaps people can keep demanding their representatives are accountable to them. If not, we should be ensure the incumbents are out at the next available time during elections. I say all incumbents in now should be out.

Obama Promoting Islam on 9/11

On the anniversary of 9/11, Dalia Mogahed, executive director of Gallup Muslim Studies and a member of Obama’s Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, says “The Domestic Crusaders” allows the audience to see a more humanized face of Muslims. The "Crusaders" is a play debuting in New York City today. The Obama regime and its representatives can not be clearer that there is no respect for the innocent Americans who were killed on 9/11. The regime wants Americans to consider how human the Islamists are. Is this statement intended to provoke a response? Is this a statement seeking to stir up emotions? This is incredibly insensitive and extraordinarily disrespectful to the families of Americans killed eight years ago. Would it be too much for Obama to promote America? Is it too much to ask him to support the memory of the Americans who died? His alleged sympathy for the Americans at a service today was overshadowed by the security incident on the Potomac. Obama is clear; his mission is to promote Islam.


In Obama's Cairo speech he stated:

"I consider it part of my responsibility as president of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear."

Another Military Incident Similar to the Flyover Fiasco

The flyover fiasco was bizarre to say the least, and today, just happens to be the anniversary of 9/11, Obama just happens to be crossing a bridge nearby,




a training exercise just happens to occur at the same time, no one happens to mention to related agencies that a military training exercise is taking place? Either this is yet another staged event, such as the flyover, or this is an exercise to get Americans accustomed to a greater military presence, or, Washington, D.C. is filled with complete morons. Who is running the show here? On 9/11 one of the worst problems was the lack of coordination between related official agencies, and yet today, the same problem occurred. Official Washington, at best, is completely incompetent and unable to protect anyone. The several agencies do not even inform each accurately about their respective activities. In the meantime, Americans have to wait for the official word from government agencies who do not know what is happening any way. I can think of few scenarios that would be as bad for the ordinary, average citizen who would like to be informed. We need to know if this is an actual threat or a drill. The government seems more likely to be just making things up as they go along. This could be a tactic to keep people in the dark and unable to make sound decisions based on accurate information. It is the perfect opportunity for the Federal government to take advantage of people. The media does a abysmal job of reporting and finding out factual information. The free press is supposed to be able to discern fact from fiction but they can not be relied on as well.


The time line:
CNN reported that the Coast Guard has fired on a boat on the Potomac River.

10:10 a.m. ET: The report of some activity on the river comes only minutes after Obama concluded 9/11 memorial ceremonies at the Pentagon not far away.

10:12 a.m. ET: CNN says the Coast Guard fired 10 rounds at the boat.

10:14 a.m. ET: CNN broadcasts what it says is audio of the Coast Guard apparently speaking to a suspicious boat. The Coast Guard speaker is heard saying; "Slow down or you will be fired on."

10:27 a.m. ET: The AP quotes the Coast Guard as saying training was being conducted in Potomac River moments before Obama motorcade crossed.

10:32 a.m. ET: Fox News quotes Coast Guard Chief Keith Moore as saying no shots were fired as part of the exercise.

10:33 a.m. ET: Reuters quotes an FBI spokeswoman as saying the agency was told by the Coast Guard that no shots were fired at a boat in the Potomac.

10:41 a.m. ET: NBC's Pete Williams, quoting a "senior Coast Guard official," says the incident was just an exercise to "challenge response times." Or, perhaps to test a military response crosses my mind.

10:53 a.m. ET: USA TODAY's Kevin Johnson reports that the Coast Guard is preparing a statement for release in a few moments.

12:01 p.m. ET: Note the time; I believe this is key. The statement stretches out from a "few moments" to more than a hour later. I wonder what was really going on here.

Here is a statement on the incident from the Coast Guard:

The U.S. Coast Guard reported on Friday that reports in the media were based on overheard radio calls made over a training frequency and that no shots were fired during the exercise. The exercise was planned in advance and was being conducted on a marine radio frequency reserved for Coast Guard training and operations. No recreational boaters were involved in this training exercise. We are still gathering information of how this training event might have been misconstrued as an actual incident. We will conduct a thorough review of this incident.


Reports were based on, and once I heard them, what sounded like actual reporting of shots fired by the Guard. Then, the Guard states no shots were fired. No one had said anything about recreational boats yet the Guard statement includes this idea. Why? We do not know. If this was a planned exercise do they notify anyone? Does each agency operate separately? Isn't there any coordination?

The statement continues:

Coast Guard boats were operating in the vicinity of 14th Street and Memorial Bridges this morning. Whether or not these were the same boats using the marine radio frequency used for training purposes has not yet been confirmed.


The Guard does not know where their own boats are?

The best way that we in the Coast Guard can remember Sept. 11 and our security obligations to the nation is to be always ready and this requires constant training and exercise. To ensure the appropriate readiness posture we conduct training scenarios across the nation on a daily basis.

How and when this exercised was conducted will be reviewed.


The statement ends with a rhetorical flourish seeking to re-assure people we know what we are doing; and, of course it also connects their exercise with 9/11 as a ploy for sympathy for their actions.

12:07 p.m. ET: Vice Adm. John Currier, Coast Guard chief of staff, tells reporters that the incident was a "low profile, normal training exercise" that, he says, is done everyday.

Perhaps this is but has anyone in the news media been able to confirm his point? Does this happen everyday? Has anyone in D.C. noted this or not? Where is the media every day?

Currier says the normal procedure is to announce "This is a drill" before and after such exercises, and that while he has not heard the tapes of this particular incident, he has a "high degree of confidence" that normal protocols were followed.

But the spokesperson does not know if normal protocols were followed or not. Shouldn't someone know?

Currier says other agencies were not notified because of the low-profile and routine nature of the event.

This should be obvious to anyone in the media; does this happen daily or not?

Asked why some police units were seen around the Potomac area after the incident, he replied: "What you see here is a loop between what actually happened, press reports, and the uncertainty that was generated by that because of the high profile of the press reports. Other agencies due to that uncertainty reacted as they normally would, they dispatched units."

Who dispatched them? Why? How would the police know what CNN, on TV, was reporting? If something is uncertain no one is dispatched. Is someone checking the police response time?

He also confirmed that the FAA briefly grounded flights out of nearby Reagan National Airport as a response to the media coverage.

Who ordered this? Is the confusion because there is some one who wants to have people question the reporting?

"Radio intercepts generated intense media coverage, and, justifiably so, but what you saw is this spiral up," Currier say. He says one area they will examine is "press engagement" and that they may ask the media for input.

Yes, and this is a terrific way to control the media. Next time they may not report anything because they have been told not to report anything.

12:39 p.m. ET: CNN's Jeanne Meserve, who covered the breaking story, says CNN contacted the Guard Guard before airing their first report to ask what was happening, based on the radio intercepts and activity in the river. She said, "They couldn't tell us. They didn't know what was happening."

So who do you believe? CNN or the Guard? They can not both be correct.

CNN also broadcast excerpts of the audio of what turned out to be an exercise in which one person is heard shouting "slow down ... or you will be fired on." She also says that in other excerpts a person is saying "10 shots have been extended, we are going to assess the situation." Meserve says there was no indication that this was a drill."

From what I could hear the tapes sound authentic as if it had actually happened.

No one will make the connection publicly but in general outline this is similar to the Mumbai scenario which was a sophisticated attack launched by boat. If this exercise was legitimate training for such a possibility it would be reasonable but there are too many loose ends. Even the simplest and easiest to answer, whether this training routine is a daily exercise no one seems able to answer. No one can tell us?


Oddly enough, the organizers of tomorrow's TEA rally that will largely to protest Obama and the gang in Washington, received a bomb threat. The FreedomWorks staffer who spoke with ABC News said that the organization has received multiple threats but that for "some reason, the DC Metro police thought that this one was credible enough to evacuate the building." I did not realize that the police fielded calls and determined, unknown to anyone, which bomb threats are credible and which ones are not. Imagine the egg on their face if an organization received a bomb threat that proved to be real and the building was not evacuated. This was one a real threat though. The stories and spins get to be so outlandish that they are more bizarre and strange all the time.

Obama's ACORN Advises "Prostitute," "Child Pimp," "Tax Cheat"





The entire transcript of filmmaker James O'Keefe and his undercover operation exposing Obama's ACORN office has been published. ACORN advised the pair who posed undercover on how to defraud the government perform their scam. Someone should check just how much the politicians voted to award ACORN as part of the stimulus package.


They are just dreadful.

Verification is the Issue: Obama Lied



There is nothing in the health care rationing bill that requires verification of a citizen's status, thus, illegal immigrants will receive health care that American citizens pay for. Obama lied. Two amendments were proposed so that health care recipients had to produce verification of status: Democrats struck both of them from the bill.

Taitz Has Gotten Further than Anyone, So Far



Attorney Dr. Orly Taitz’ Barnett v. Obama case has gone further than any similar Court case, so far.

U.S. District Judge David O. Carter has ordered a scheduling conference between the parties to the case to occur on 5 October 2009 with tentative trial dates following up thereafter, assuming that the Court finds reason to go so far.

Calling Out: Rep. Wilson and the Obaaamaaas



You know for the usually staid English calling out in Parliament is not only typical but it is a part of the hurly-burly actual debating style of the council. Representatives hoot, jeer, call out, and boo their opponents. The minor incident of calling out in our august chamber has a precedent: English democratic practice. It really shouldn't be that big a deal, or we could simply advocate change.


The irony in the incident, and dismissal, is that Rep. Wilson is correct. Obama was lying. Wilson was telling the truth. H.R. 3200 does not contain any restrictions on non-citizens. The CRS (Congressional Research Office) reports do not get released to the public. CRS offers private analysis to members of Congress on request, but rarely do they see the light of day. However, David Freddoso got his hands on a copy of the 11-page analysis, “Treatment of Non-Citizens in HR3200″ late last night, and confirmed its reading:

In its subsection on health insurance subsidies (known as “affordability credits”), HR 3200 does state, “Nothing in this subtitle shall allow Federal payments for affordability credits on behalf of individuals who are not lawfully present in the United States.” That would seem to solve the problem, but it’s more rhetoric than reality. The bill contains no verification requirement or enforcement process for citizenship or legal residency, as exists for other federal benefit programs. The only verification required for the subsidies pertains to family income. Beyond that, as the CRS report notes, everything is left in the hands of the Health Choices Commissioner.

House Democrats defeated all attempts in committee to add an enforcement mechanism that would require proof of citizenship or legal residency for those getting subsidies.


In short, illegal immigrants will get health care; Obama lied.

Obama's disapproval number jumped to 52% just as word was released that the 44 more moderate Democrats of the Democrat Caucus have gone on the record in opposition to the current health care rationing bill in the House. Meanwhile, 57 Liberal Democrats are on record to vote no on a bill without strong government intervention. The Democrats, totally in control, and completely disintegrating all on their own without the Republicans.
