Aramaic Broadcasting Network October News Letter
The mirror image of Bill Ayers and a modern patriot.
George Orwell's predictions in 1984, which he wrote in 1949, were 30 years too soon. His other predictions in the Animal Farm have already come to pass. The writing on the barn wall in that famous post war story about the threat of communism is ringing as true today as when Orwell wrote: "All animals are created equally." but the pigs changed it to read: "But some are more equal than others." The story that has yet to be written is about the mirror image that reverses the roles of the radical communist and the American patriot. A story that is almost 60 years in the making. William Charles "Bill" Ayers (born December 26, 1944), most famous for being the co-founder of the radical terrorist group Weather Underground, is five years younger than me, but for the sake of time, distance and wealth we are mirror images of each other in two different times. I am now what he was then.
I speak in riddles and metaphors. I am now in thought, what he was then in reality, but lets continue with this analogy.
In the mid 1960s self-described communist revolutionary Bill Ayers, the son of Thomas G. Ayers a wealthy businessman who would become CEO of Commonwealth Edison, was receiving his radical indoctrination into left-wing politics while attending the University of Michigan. In the mid 1960s I was starting out working my first full-time job after being honorably discharged after 5 years in the Coast Guard. A few years later this was a time of communist inspired riots in the streets and I had just become a member of The John Birch Society. This group of patriots became the primary source of my conservative political education that would last me a lifetime. I learned what America was about, the things that made us so great and, most importantly, who and why we had so many enemies, at home and abroad.
In the mid 1960s, as I was starting a family, America was a good place to live. Before the time of 700 channel High Definition TV, outside the cities we had quiet neighborhoods with neatly trimmed lawns, friendly neighbors, polite children and good work ethics. We had good Local Police then who believed in their job To Protect and To Serve, and we Supported them, and patriotism was flying the American flag, going to church and having picnics and parades. It was also a time when a few people who hated our country were setting off bombs and shooting cops. People like Bill Ayers were trying to change our country into some warped idea of a Socialist Police State. Groups like his own Weather Underground and The Black Panthers and the Students for a Democratic Society - The SDS, were subverting our culture on every college campus. They had the wealth and influence of a rich liberal elite on their side. Nowadays those offspring of the wealthy elite parents have themselves become respectable, no thanks to the power of the sympathizing news media that helped tear apart our once glorious Republic and decimate our Constitution in the pursuit of socialism. In 1997, barely 30 years after he was setting off his bombs, the city of Chicago awarded Bill Ayers its Citizen of the Year award and Wall Street Journal columnist Thomas Frank praised Ayers as a "model citizen". In the liberal world the only good PR work they do goes to promoting other liberals.
Well, the bald-faced reality of the situation is the communists have won. They're in the White House and in control of Congress. We underestimated the influence of the news media as being our greatest enemy. They helped to shape and popularize the image of our communist threat and to cover up the details of the past while at the same time to marginalize the conservative opposition. They basically rewrote history. They told the lies often enough and the people began to believe them. The fact is the leftists outsmarted us in realizing that the news media would become their greatest asset. As the pedophiles were flocking into the priesthood the communists were joining academia to churn out a generation of Marxists who would poison the field of journalism forever. We are still deluded into believing we can change things by winning elections. Perhaps things might have changed if some wealthy conservative industrialists like the Koch brothers had bought up a few colleges noted for journalism degrees and we were able to inject a pro-Constitutional mentality into the news media writers. No, that wouldn't work by itself. We would just wind up with a whole bunch of unemployed journalism graduates from conservative colleges. To make it work we would also need some conservative right-minded thinking instilled in the owners, editors and publishers of our newspapers. As hard as that dream would ever be. Then again there are the television news programs that have been solidly corrupted by a Marxist mentality. The garden has been taken over by the weeds and its time to bring out the rotor-tiller.
Bill Ayers is the epitome of the logic in None Dare Call It Treason. "Treason doth never prosper: what's the reason? Why if it prosper, none dare call it treason." Bill Ayers went on to a successful life as a college professor, and a profitable lecture tour after he retired. He helped launch the political career of Barack Hussein Obama, the communist who occupies our White House today, once a thought that was thoroughly debunked by the leftist news media but now Bill Ayers admits it was true. Just a minor detail he says. That is how brazenly frank they have become in acknowledging their success.
So now the images in the mirror have become reversed. The radical bombers who attacked our country have now assumed respectability in our society. And those moral, God-fearing, flag waving patriots, who do still cling to their guns and their bibles, who fought the radicals a long time ago and lost are about to become what their enemy once was. While my generation has grown too old to fight another war, I am almost 74, we tried to instill in our children and grandchildren the same love for freedom and liberty that our forefathers instilled in us. Hopefully, somewhere in America there is a younger, healthier generation that will see the path ahead and know now who the true enemy really is and be able to do what needs to be done. We do owe Barack Hussein Obama one small debt of gratitude for he has become the greatest gun salesman in American history. Next time we gather in protest we will not come unarmed.

From the Noisy Room: The Night Stalker Shows Her Poker Face
Posted: 17 Oct 2013 07:03 AM PDTNoisyRoom.net
By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton
Cross-Posted at Right Wing News
It is obvious to many of us that the whole government shutdown was preplanned. Collusion is the name of this game. Both sides of the aisle were involved. The former foreign editor of Newsweek and editor-in-chief of the New York Times Magazine, Ed Klein comes right out and says it. The plan was to force Obamacare on America and win votes to take over the House in 2014. Tsk, tsk… Marxists, be careful what you wish for. You have reawakened the Tea Party and they are coming:
Oh, and Senator Cruz basically made the Democrats fight for a whole bunch of things that they already had. And as for poll issues that sound just wrong, check out how David Pryor, Mark Begich and Mary “I’d vote for ObamaCare Again” Landrieu are doing lately. That’s three Red State Dem Senators with Lincoln Chafee 2006 re-election poll numbers.*
So obviously John McCain and Peter King both popped a vessel over what Senator Cruz did to the Republicans. John McCain wants Ted Cruz and Mike Lee held personally responsible for the government shutdown. According to him, elections have consequences. One only wishes he would have acted like it in 2008.
Peter King just about treats Ted Cruz the way he used to treat opponents of the War in Iraq. He claims Ted Cruz strengthened ObamaCare. Really? What he did was demonstrated in bold relief which members of both the GOP and the Democratic Party will most aggressively support it as it 404′s it’s way across cyberspace on it’s way to signing up 1.7% of the people it was intended to cover. The worse this rout becomes, the smarter Ted Cruz looks in comparison to John McCain and Peter King.
What just happened here was a wake-up call to the previously quiescent Tea Party. Red State Dems who champion ObamaCare and Republicans that are too weak such as Mitch McConnell are going to spend the entire time between now and November of 2014 running for their lives like a QB behind the Oakland Raiders’ Offensive Line. A whole bunch of Sunshine Conservatives now fear the fact that the Tea Party is now back. They are not happy campers. Things just got kicked up a notch. People can’t just pretend they are Conservative anymore. That explains the incoherent rage of John McCain and Peter King.By caving to the Progressives, both sides have reinvigorated the Tea Party. This time, they won’t be silenced or stopped. Which brings us back to the infamous Night Stalker, Valerie Jarrett:
Klein wrote a critical biography about Obama last year called “The Amateur.” He said he interviewed more than a half dozen White House and former presidential advisers about the shutdown plan.
He called Jarret the “architect” of the strategy of refusing to negotiate with Republicans over Obamacare.
“She convinced the president that a government shutdown and default offered a great opportunity to demonize the Republicans and help the Democrats win back a majority in the House of Representatives in 2014,” he explained.
“Valerie also came with the idea of using the words ‘hostage,’ and ‘ransom’ and ‘terrorists’ against the Republicans,” Klein maintained.
He said Jarrett’s advice to Obama was, “[D]o not cooperate one iota on Obamacare. Don’t give an inch. Let the Republicans stew in their own juice.”
Klein added, “Republicans walked into a trap set up by Valerie Jarrett and President Obama.”Klein is not alone. Louie Gohmert says that on the eve of the shutdown, Obama already had barricades and cones up.

All about Democrats. The things they do my liberal newspaper never told me.
Today is Columbus Day, the day we honor the 15th Century Italian explorer Christopher Columbus and the Catholic monarchs of Spain, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, for financing his quest. After Columbus discovered America in 1492, it was closely followed by the settling of New England by the Puritans who escaped England to protect religious freedom. Things worked well here until the atheists arrived, then came the communists and the liberals and the Democratic Party and then we all went to hell in a hand basket. Because of the holiday I expect the news to be relatively quiet today so I am going to recap some interesting stories about prominent Democrats that my liberal newspaper didn't bother to write about. And follow up with a commentary on the violence in America that can be traced to the Democratic Party.
There are two important political races going on. In New Jersey they will be voting this Wednesday on a special election for the U.S. Senate to replace Democrat Frank Lautenberg who died in January and in Virginia, the race for governor will be decided on November 5, 2013. The Democratic Senate candidate in New Jersey is Newark mayor Cory Booker and the interesting part of this race are the allegations that Cory Booker doesn't live in the city of Newark or even in the state of New Jersey. The allegations were reported on The Daily Caller which tracked down several residences listed by Booker, none of which were his home. Neighbors were interviewed and they said he never lived in any of them.Multiple residents of Newark told The Daily Caller that the longtime mayor doesn’t live at any of the addresses he has claimed as home. The mayor is believed to live in New York even though he is registered to run for New Jersey’s special senate election.
Booker, who filed to run for the U.S. Senate from a P.O. Box in Newark, is registered to vote at 435 Hawthorne Avenue but his next door neighbors told this reporter and filmmaker Joel Gilbert on camera that they haven’t seen Booker in years and that he doesn’t live there.In the state of Virginia, the Democratic Party candidate Terry McAuliffe has been caught up in a scandal involving Joseph Caramadre, a wealthy businessman who made high value contributions to the Democratic Party campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Harry Reid and who pleaded guilty to a fraud that used the stolen identities of dying people to apply for annuities and bonds. This profitable practice was joined by Terry McAuliffe, himself, who also invested $47,000 in the scheme.Read more: http://dailycaller.com/2013/10/14/neighbors-cory-booker-never-lived-in-newark/#ixzz2hjJrcnvE
As expected, the pro-Democrat liberal news media hasn't reported on this to any length.
Did the Devil make them do it?
A recent survey found that 57% of Americans believe the Devil exists. 65% of Republicans surveyed said they believed the Devil is real versus only 55% of Democrats. I believe that a sizable chunk of those 55% of the Democrats that believe in the Devil represent those who may actually worship the Devil as evidenced by those Democrats who attended their 2012 National Convention who loudly voted to remove the name of God from their party platform. To be fair, a large part of the 35% of Republicans who don't believe in the Devil are probably RINOs. As liberal Democrats try to distance themselves from the Judeo-Christian beliefs that helped shape our country, their actions give credence to the literary proclamation that "The Devil's greatest accomplishment was convincing the world he didn't exist." But within the scope of our national peril there must also be room for the argument that with the help of the Democrats, "The Devil's second greatest accomplishment was convincing the world that Islam is a religion of peace."
And this leads to one more observation. We live in a very troubled world today, both at home and abroad, where war and the slaughter of innocents take place every day. This widespread killing seems to come from two major sources of trouble:the mentally ill who roam our streets and the Muslims who hate everything that is not a part of Islam. We have the Democrats to thank for both. During the Democratic controlled administration of Bill Clinton, the enlightened liberals decided that putting mentally ill people in institutions was demeaning to their self respect so most of the insane asylums were closed and the patients released to live among society. That noble gesture resulted in a slew of mass homicides over the last 20 years committed by mentally ill people. Coincidentally, the Democrats used every act of gun violence to repeat their call for more Gun Control. Along the way, Democrats made allegiances with Muslim groups such as CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, their affiliated terrorist supporting groups such as ISNA, the Islamic Society of North America, which includes the MSA, the Muslim Student Association active on almost every college campus, and The Muslim Brotherhood. Several members of The Muslim Brotherhood have been appointed to positions within the Democrat administration of Barack Hussein Obama, including Homeland Security. It was also revealed that during the Clinton administration, the Democrats had been given the opportunity to kill Osama bin Laden, the leader of the radical Muslim terrorist group al Qaeda, but Bill Clinton declined the offer thus allowing Osama bin Laden to further carry out plots against America, culminating with September 11, 2001. The same pro-Democrat liberal news media that covered up Obama's radical, communist mentored past, his Muslim religion and his connections with domestic terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, subsequently began to white-wash Muslim terrorist plots and their accomplishments in America while using the acts of mass killings by guns in the hands of the mentally ill as an excuse to push to disarming Americans. A few of the worst mass shootings by mentally ill people include the following as well as two mass killings by Muslims:
Click to enlarge.
- April 20, 1999 at Columbine High School in Jefferson County, Colorado, Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, murdered 12 students, one teacher and injured 24 others. One official report suggested that Harris was a psychopath and Klebold was a depressive, and consequently that Harris was influenced by sadism, whereas Klebold was influenced by revenge.
- September 11, 2001, 19 Muslims, financed by Osama bin Laden, 15 who were citizens of Saudi Arabia, hijacked 4 U.S. airliners and crashed them into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon killing 2,977 victims.
- April 16, 2007, on the campus of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, Virginia, Seung-Hui Cho, a senior at Virginia Tech, shot and killed 32 people and wounded 17 others. Seung-Hui Cho had previously been diagnosed with a severe anxiety disorder.
- November 5, 2009, Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim and self-professed Soldier of Allah, killed 13 people and wounded 30 others in Fort Hood, Texas. The reason he gave at his Court Martial was because the victims were soldiers who were about to deploy to Afghanistan and fight Muslims.
- On January 8, 2011, U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords and eighteen others were shot by Jared Lee Loughner during a constituent meeting held in a supermarket parking lot in Casas Adobes, Arizona, in the Tucson metropolitan area. Six people died. Jared Lee Loughner had been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.
- July 20, 2012, James Eagan Holmes carried out a well planned assault in the Century movie theater in Aurora, Colorado and murdered 12 and injured 70 others. Holmes is currently on trial and his attorney is considering a plea of insanity.
- December 14, 2012 20-year-old Adam Lanza fatally shot twenty children and six adult staff members in a mass murder at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. Adam Lanza suffered from a severe mental condition and was living with his mother who had been trying to get him treatment. Adam Lanza also killed his mother and used her guns to commit the massacre at the school.
While many Americans relish in the soft and fuzzy thoughts of diversity and political correctness (aside from their newly created part-time jobs thanks to ObamaCare), the Democrats are hard at work plundering our treasury, pushing amnesty to gain millions of new voters, causing havoc with our economy and weakening our military. And their Republican counterparts, namely Speaker John Boehner and Senator Mitch McConnell, are preoccupied with trying to make friends and attack everyone who has anything bad to say about the Democrats. The only one in the Senate who spoke the truth about this country club mentality was Sen. John McCain who stated during a presidential campaign stop in 2008 that he would never say anything bad about a fellow member of the Senate. Too bad more people didn't pay attention.My name is Nelson Abdullah and I am Oldironsides.

Did boastful rhetoric dissuade Washington, DC truckers protest?
This was to be a weekend to remember in our Nation's Capitol. On Sunday a group of veterans have planned a Million Veteran March On The Memorials to reclaim the privately funded memorials illegally closed by Barack Hussein Obama. The veterans from WWII, Korea and Vietnam, some of them in wheelchairs, won't be alone. They will have some back up as Belinda Bee the organizer of the Bikers Ride to Washington last month has called for many bikers to return to give them support. Recalling the two-million Tea Party tax protesters who gathered on the National Mall in Washington in 2010 and the one-million bikers (the official estimate by the Washington, D.C. Police) who rode to Washington on September 11, 2013 to counter the Million Muslim non-event that turned out only a dozen Islamic sympathizers, a group of truckers planned a massive drive-through today to clog the Beltway around the Capitol. But one of the truckers organizers made some boastful claims that may have persuaded many others to avoid the conflict.
One of the organizers of the protest, Earl Conlon, was quoted on US News but later retracted his comments.
"We are not going to ask for impeachment," Conlon said. "We are coming whether they like it or not. We're not asking for impeachment, we're asking for the arrest of everyone in government who has violated their oath of office."
Conlon cited the idea of a citizens grand jury – meaning a pool of jurors convened without court approval – as the mechanism for indicting the officials.
"We want these people arrested, and we're coming in with the grand jury to do it," he said. "We are going to ask the law enforcement to uphold their constitutional oath and make these arrests. If they refuse to do it, by the power of the people of the United States and the people's grand jury, they don't want to do it, we will. ... We the people will find a way."
But Steve Nelson, who reported the story wrote: "It's almost certain that anyone attempting to "arrest" a member of Congress would be arrested themselves for attempted kidnapping." While the boastful rhetoric proved to be just that, the accusations made were still true.
The Hill reported three days ago that Earl Conlon told The Washington Post that his boastful rhetoric was a ploy to get national attention. “The comments to U.S. News were designed to do one thing and one thing only: stir the feather of the mainstream media,” said Conlon, a father of three. “Nothing gets the attention of the mainstream media like some sort of disastrous threat. I knew it was going to ruffle some feathers.” But the statements about convening a Citizens Grand Jury to indict and arrest members of Congress sounded like a lynch mob and may have been taken seriously by a lot of other truckers who avoided the protest drive to keep out of trouble. Someone should have mentioned to Earl Conlon one rule of automotive mechanics: too much fuel causes a backfire.Conlon and Andrews say Obama committed "treason" by allegedly funneling weapons to al-Qaida-linked rebels in Syria. Members of Congress who support arming Syrian rebels, Conlon said, are accessories to the alleged crime. He identified House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., as politicians he will seek to arrest for alleged acts against the Constitution.
So as the weekend progresses we have, as usual, our aging veterans and patriotic bikers left to defend our liberties. God speed to both of these patriotic groups. Our younger generation, at least those who are not serving in our Armed Forces, are still too busy trying to figure our why their "free" ObamaCare healthcare isn't free.A truck driver who called for protesting the government by backing up the Capitol Beltway says he made the threat to attract media attention.
Georgia-based truck driver Earl Conlon, who was behind the group “Truckers for the Constitution,” told The Washington Post he was hoping to use the threat of shutting down the Beltway to highlight the industry's frustration with federal regulations.
"The comments to U.S. News were designed to do one thing and one thing only: stir the feather of the mainstream media,” Conlon said. “Nothing gets the attention like the mainstream media, like some sort of disastrous threat. I knew it was going to ruffle some feathers.”
79-year old cancer victim blasts Congress as permanent political ruling class.
The headline comes from Brietbart.com and the story comes from an appearance by Gov. Sarah Palin on a TV talk show, but the substance comes from a 79-year old cancer victim who knows the difference between a government of the people, for the people and by the people - and an elitist ruling class government that thinks only of themselves. This is the letter written by Bill Schoonover, a veteran dying from cancer, to two Washington state Democrats in Congress.
Palin: Citizen Letter Blasting Permanent Political Class 'Rings True'
April 3, 2013
Senator Patty Murray
Senator Maria Cantwell
Washington, DC, 20510
Dear Senator:
I have tried to live by the rules my entire life. My father was a Command Sergeant Major, U.S. Army, who died of combat related stresses shortly after his retirement. It was he who instilled in me those virtues he felt important - honesty, duty, patriotism and obeying the laws of God and of our various governments. I have served my country, paid my taxes, worked hard, volunteered and donated my fair share of money, time and artifacts.
Today, as I approach my 79th birthday, I am heart-broken when I look at my country and my government. I shall only point out a very few things abysmally wrong which you can multiply by a thousand fold. I have calculated that all the money I have paid in income taxes my entire life cannot even keep the Senate barbershop open for one year! Only Heaven and a few tight-lipped actuarial types know what the Senate dining room costs the taxpayers. So please, enjoy your haircuts and meals on us.
Last year, the president spent an estimated $1.4 billion on himself and his family. The vice president spends $ millions on hotels. They have had 8 vacations so far this year! And our House of Representatives and Senate have become America's answer to the Saudi royal family. You have become the "perfumed princes and princesses" of our country.
In the middle of the night, you voted in the Affordable Health Care Act, a.k.a. "Obama Care," a bill which no more than a handful of senators or representatives read more than several paragraphs, crammed it down our throats, and then promptly exempted yourselves from it, substituting your own taxpayer-subsidized golden health care insurance.
You live exceedingly well, eat and drink as well as the "one percenters," consistently vote yourselves perks and pay raises while making 3.5 times the average U.S. individual income, and give up nothing while you (as well as the president and veep) ask us to sacrifice due to sequestration (for which, of course, you plan to blame the Republicans, anyway).
You understand very well the only two rules you need to know - (1) How to get elected, and (2) How to get re-elected. And you do this with the aid of an eagerly willing and partisan press, speeches permeated with a certain economy of truth, and by buying the votes of the greedy, the ill-informed and under-educated citizens (and non-citizens, too, many of whom do vote) who are looking for a handout rather than a job. Your so-called "safety net" has become a hammock for the lazy. And, what is it now, about 49 or 50 million on food stamps - pretty much all Democratic voters - and the program is absolutely rife with fraud with absolutely no congressional oversight?
I would offer that you are not entirely to blame. What changed you is the seductive environment of power in which you have immersed yourselves. It is the nature of both houses of Congress which requires you to subordinate your virtue in order to get anything done until you have achieved a leadership role. To paraphrase President Reagan, it appears that the second oldest profession (politics), bears a remarkably strong resemblance to the oldest.
As the hirsute first Baron John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton (1834 - 1902), English historian and moralist, so aptly and accurately stated, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men." I'm only guessing that this applies to the female sex as well. Tell me, is there a more corrupt entity in this country than Congress?
While we middle class people continue to struggle, our government becomes less and less transparent, more and more bureaucratic, and ever so much more dictatorial, using Czars and Secretaries to tell us (just to mention a very few) what kind of light bulbs we must purchase, how much soda or hamburgers we can eat, what cars we can drive, gasoline to use and what health care we must buy. Countless thousands of pages of regulations strangle our businesses costing the consumer more and more every day.
As I face my final year, or so, with cancer, my president and my government tell me "You'll just have to take a pill," while you, Senator, your colleagues, the president, and other exulted government officials and their families will get the best possible health care on our tax dollars until you are called home by your Creator, while also enjoying a retirement beyond my wildest dreams, which of course, you voted for yourselves and we pay for.
The chances of you reading this letter are practically zero as your staff will not pass it on, but with a little luck, a form letter response might be generated by them with an auto signature applied, hoping we will believe that you, our senator or representative, has heard us and actually cares. This letter will, however, go online where many others will have the chance to read one person's opinion, rightly or wrongly, about this government, its administration and its senators and representatives.
I only hope that occasionally you might quietly thank the taxpayer for all the generous entitlements which you have voted yourselves, for which, by law, we must pay, unless, of course, it just goes on the $17 trillion national debt for which your children and ours, and your grandchildren and ours, ad infinitum, must eventually try to pick up the tab.
My final thoughts are that it must take a person who has either lost his or her soul, or conscience, or both, to seek re-election and continue to destroy this country I deeply love and put it so far in debt that we will never pay it off, while your lot improves by the minute, because of your power. For you, Senator, will never stand up to the rascals in your House who constantly deceive the American people. And that, my dear Senator, is how power has corrupted you and the entire Congress. The only answer to clean up this cesspool is term limits. This, of course, will kill the goose that lays your golden eggs. And woe be to him (or her) who would dare to bring it up.
Sincerely,
Bill Schoonover

COMMON CORE: Prediction, Propaganda or Indoctrination. “the government of United States is currently revisiting” the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
Common Core is the new push by liberal educators to create a national standard for our classrooms. Apart from the grandiose sounding platitudes, what it actually is designed to do is indoctrinate a generation of our youth into misunderstanding the history of our nation and the function of our government. And it also is redefining what our young people know about our rights. Take, for example, the following workshop instruction on our Constitution being presented by Common Core. We older folk know that the Constitution of the United States is the framework for our government. It contains the assignment of authorities between the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of our government known as "the separation of powers". Our Founding Fathers were skeptical of too much power concentrated into the hands of government so they created the first ten amendments called The Bill of Rights. And the Constitution also contains the exact process which allows it to be amended in a precise manner that first involves passing the amendment by 2/3 of both Houses of Congress and then ratification by 3/4 of the State's Legislatures. Common Core apparently wants to create a false impression in the minds of students as to what the Constitution is and what it is not so that these misinformed youth will be ignorant of the facts when they get old enough to vote.
The Daily Caller reported a story today with the ominous title:
Common Core assignment makes sixth-graders SCRAP Bill of Rights amendments
The story originated on the web site EAG News about a school in Bryant, Arkansas that handed out a worksheet to students that contains this quote: “the government of United States is currently revisiting” the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Because, it was reported, "the Constitution is outdated". There is nothing in the worksheet that informs the students of the correct process to amend the Constitution making it appear that those "outdated" rights in The Bill of Rights can be taken away by a simple act of Congress or even by some tyrannical leader's Executive Order. Here is a copy of the worksheet:

And a blowup with the critical statement underlined. Also, please note the misspelling and grammatical errors.

As Eric Owens wrote on The Daily Caller,
Well, America: if you thought the people behind the Common Core couldn’t possibly be any more moronic or tone deaf, you were wrong.
A Common Core worksheet handed out this year in a sixth-grade history class in Bryant, Ark. required students to ditch two amendments from the Bill of Rights, reports EAGnews.org. Students were also told to plug their rights eliminations by creating “a visual aid that could act as a clear representation of your proposal.”
EAGnews says the assignment is part of the Common Core State Standards Initiative, an attempt by educrats to standardize various K-12 curricula across the country. This fall, 45 states and the District of Columbia have begun implementing the curriculum.
This is from the same Democrat-controlled government that occupies itself with publishing images of Barack Hussein Obama surrounded by a halo as if he really was some messianic personification.
Our Founding Fathers must be turning over in their graves. When they formed our government they briefly debated having our country run by a King and offered the position to George Washington but the experience with the King of England convinced them to discard the idea. In their wildest dreams they could never have imagined a political party like the Democrats trying to turn the elected office of president into a deity and a country run by Executive Orders.

The death of democracy in America.
Democracy <noun> has many meanings, some good, some bad. Our Founding Fathers despised the word and for what it stood for and did not mention it once in either The Declaration of Independence or in the Constitution of the United States. Instead, the chose to build the framework of our nation upon the principles of a Republic, a Constitutional Republic, a nation of laws. Aside from the darker meanings of the word democracy which has included references to mob rule, as in lynch mobs, democracy has come to be known as a two party political system. Leaving out the fringe third-party groups for the moment, that leaves us with Republicans and Democrats. And our democratically <adverb> elected government.
Thanks to the unending efforts of the Democrats, the party that derived its name from the word democracy, America will soon become a single party system just as soon as the Democrats push through their immigration reforms and legalize several tens of millions of grateful illegal immigrant workers who already crowd our shores and utilize our welfare programs, our over-taxed public schools and our medical system.
This will soon be true because according to a recent Pew Research Center survey, while 43% of American voters identify themselves with the Republican Party, 48% identify themselves with the Democrats. Add to the mix a large number of newly minted voters who are expected to show enormous gratitude to the party that grants them citizenship and the percentages of voters will be spread much further apart. Should amnesty and immigration reform become law, it is estimated that the legislative branch of government will become solidly Democrat for many decades to come. And just as WalMart uses its enormous size and clout to stifle its local competition so will the Democrats effectively dominate most state and local elections.
In our nation's capitol the push for immigration reform has turned into a Zombie-like pandemic with several not so conservative Republicans believing that if they don't support amnesty it will make those presently illegal immigrants hostile toward the Republican Party for not giving them what they want. Terresa Monroe-Hamilton pointed this out in her web site commentary today.Amnesty is Alive and Well and Moving Forward

Lest you mistakenly thought that Amnesty had faded away, no it hasn’t. Marxists and illegal aliens across the US are still pushing it — hard. With the help of Progressives on both sides of the Aisle, from Nancy Pelosi on the Left to Paul Ryan on the Right:
Thousands of supporters of an immigration overhaul held rallies on Saturday at more than 150 sites in 40 states, trying to pressure Congress, despite the partisan turmoil in Washington, to focus on passing a pathway to citizenship for millions of immigrants here illegally.
Hoping to display the wide reach of their movement, advocates held larger rallies in immigrant strongholds like Los Angeles, San Diego and Boston, with smaller demonstrations in places where immigrant groups have grown recently, including Atlanta; Rogers, Ark.; and Yakima, Wash. Organizers described the events, and a large rally they have planned for Tuesday on the National Mall in Washington, as their major show of force this year.
On what they called a “National Day of Immigrant Dignity and Respect,” supporters said more than 50,000 people had turned out nationwide. But the demonstrations came when few lawmakers on Capitol Hill were thinking about immigration, with the federal government shut down and the House of Representatives locked in a feud with President Obama and Democrats over health care and debt funding.
Even while advocates have built up their strength — with a broad coalition of business, labor, religious and law enforcement groups calling for a comprehensive bill — they fear that momentum is slipping away for Congress to act this year.

From The Noisy Room: Gut the Progressive GOP
Gut the Progressive GOP

John Boehner needs to go – yesterday. This proves everything we have been saying forever. In an effort to tear the GOP apart (and it is working), the Progressive Dems have leaked emails written by House Speaker John Boehner’s Chief of Staff, Mike Sommers. Turns out, Boehner has been supposedly coordinating with Senate Majority and head weasel Harry Reid to exempt Congress from Obamacare. Can you believe this crap? Look, I don’t care that the emails were leaked yesterday by Reid Chief of Staff David Krone, who has a penchant for dirty tricks like this. Boehner is now really exposed for the dirty dealings we all knew he was up to, but could not prove. We hate both sides of the aisle with good reason.
The Blaze:
The leaks, which are a major taboo in Washington, show Boehner (R-Ohio) worked behind the scenes earlier this year to address confusion over a provision in the Affordable Care Act that would force members of Congress and their aides into the exchanges. In fact, if one were to go by the leaks, which were first published by Politico, it appears that the offices of Boehner and Reid regularly coordinated to exempt Congress from the health care law.
But given that Boehner is now apparently against congressional Obamacare exemptions, the emails make him look inconsistent and hypocritical – which may have been the point of their leaking.Boehner and the rest of his ‘Progressives on the Right’ posse have sold us out. He needs to have his arse handed to him and his tanning privileges revoked. I knew this politico was in bed with Obama when they became golfing buddies. Disgusting and enough to make blood shoot from my eyes.
From the Politico:
[B]ehind-the-scenes, Boehner and his aides worked for months with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.), and others, to save these very same, long-standing [congressional Obamacare] subsidies, according to documents and e-mails provided to POLITICO. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) was also aware of these discussions, the documents show.NRO even reported that Boehner and his toadies were collaborating to arrange a meeting on this carve out disguised as a meeting on illegal immigration. Lies, deceit, sleight of hand and manipulation – where are those damned tar and feathers?
More from The Blaze:
“We can’t let it get out there that this is for [Boehner] and [Reid] to ask the President to carve us out of the requirement of Obamacare,” Boehner chief of staff Mike Sommers wrote on July 17.
“This is a little bit more difficult because it isn’t a routing meeting because [House Minority Leader Nancy] Pelosi and [Senate Minority Leader Mitch] McConnell won’t be there,” he wrote. “I am even ok if it is the President hauling us down to talk about the next steps on immigration.”About 1.5 seconds after this came out, the GOP right on cue started whining and proclaiming that these emails were mischaracterized. Really? That’s the best you’ve got? Actually, I think they are mischaracterized. They are worse than they look by a whole lot. You betcha.
A Republican aide called David Krone “a low-rent, self-dealing bagman.” And that they could never deal with him again. Well, you better say the same about Boehner and the Progressives on the right. All of them are despicable. Because Boehner is a double dealing, two-faced, sleaze bucket and is not clean, the Dems have leverage and can use this crap against him and the GOP. Duh. The slimy bastard Krone went on to proclaim:
In a statement to National Review Online, Krone defended himself: “Every time one of these anonymous Republican aides takes a look at their paycheck, I hope they remember it was Harry Reid who protected their employer contribution.”
“They and their bosses are welcome to return it if they’re so outraged. I took the action I did because I refuse to stand by and watch those who pressed for this ruling turn around and attack the very thing they asked for, simply because they don’t have the courage to stand up to a few whiners in their caucus. Integrity means owning in public what you advocate for in private,” Krone said.This is just the latest greatest piece of offal that Boehner has been caught rolling in. Don’t forget that there were earlier allegations that he advised the White House in September on how to win Republican votes for U.S. military action in Syria. Speaker of the House, my ass. He’s the Speaker of the Ruling Marxist Class and we all know how that ends throughout history.
I couldn’t agree with Glenn Beck more on this:
“This is officially my snapping point. I have had it with John Boehner. I have thought he was not a good guy for a very long time. Not on our side. We all know that. We all know that,” an exasperated Glenn said. “But there’s a difference between not a good guy – not on your side – and somebody who is knifing you in the back. I want to make it very, very clear, John Boehner is knifing you in the back. And there’s no two ways about it.”
[...]
“Now remember, there’s no way for a Republican to get away with saying, ‘I know you have to join Obamacare, but we’re not going to.’ That was one of the things: Make Congress abide by their own laws. Make them feel the pain that they have inflicted on all of us in every shape and form. Make them abide by the same laws.”
[...]
“So, here is the letter. He writes, or his chief of staff writes to Harry Reid about how they have to get into see the President to save the Congressional subsidies. They need to see the President and do some backroom, off the record, deal,” Glenn explained. “John Boehner’s chief of staff writes, we can’t let it get out there that this is for Boehner and Reid to carve out the requirement of Obamacare. Got it? We can’t let it get out. We have to find some way to get them to the President, quoting, ‘I am even okay if the President is hauling us down to talk about the next steps on immigration. I really don’t care what we say it’s about. It just can’t be about what we know it’s about.’ End quote.”
[...]
“Let me ask the Republicans. Are you as dumb as the Democrats have been because the Democrats allowed the progressives to take over their party,” Glenn said. “Republicans, the evidence is here. John Boehner is a lying thief. He is trying to portray himself as something he is not. You now have the evidence of his chief of staff in bed with Harry Reid saying, ‘Can we bury this? Can’t we just make this happen? Can’t we just keep the subsidies for us while we pretend to fight against them?’ So now it’s up to you. You have the information.”
[...]
“I guarantee you, John Boehner would step down today, if the big donors would actually come to the plate today and say, ‘I’ve given my last dime to the Republican Party until john Boehner steps down – not as speaker of the house – but resigns. Until that happens, you don’t get a dime from me. Not one dime from me,’” Glenn said. “If everybody who has ever given any money would call their congressman and call GOP Headquarters and say, ‘Don’t you ever ask me for a dime. Don’t you ever send me an email. Don’t you do it.’ There’s step one: #DefundTheGOP.”
[...]
“I’m pretty good at predicting the future. I’m pretty good at seeing the trends. If you don’t come off of this road now, you are going to have a GOP that is just like the Democrats. And your choice will then be Chris Christie or Hilary Clinton. Which one you want? I don’t want either of them,” Glenn said. “You want a real choice? Good. Right now you can have that. If everybody got on the phone, everybody called John Boehner, Everybody called their representative and said, ‘I’m done with you. You know, you are a good representative but unless you can convince him, you are going to have to step out of your party. I won’t give any of you another dime.’”
“You are a steward of your money. You are supposed to do the right thing. Do you really believe giving your money to the GOP and to John Cornyn and to John Boehner to have them decide who is going to protect the Republican freedom [is the right choice],” Glenn asked. “I ask you to pray on it. Do you really think that’s the way to go? These guys are a knife in the back. Not a dime from me. #DefundTheGOP.”Boehner got caught with his orange paw in the Obamacare cookie jar. Bad Progressive GOP, bad… The Republicans have allowed themselves to be overrun by Progressives – infiltrated and conquered. Gut the Progressive GOP. Turn towards the Cruz Coalition and the Tea Party. #DefundTheGOP.
