“Oscar-winning actor and political activist Sean Penn flew to Cuba hoping to interview its revolutionary icon Fidel Castro, entertainment news website TMZ reported Sunday.”
“Sean (Penn) is going to the land of Fidel as a journalist, writing a story for Vanity Fair (magazine) about how the (Barack) Obama administration has affected Cuba,” TMZ reported.”
“Penn was traveling with Diana Jenkins: “Actually … it’s her plane … she’s married to the head honcho at Barclays bank,” TMZ added, noting the pair set out from Las Vegas on Saturday.”
“Barclays sources say Sean and Diana are going to meet (Fidel) Castro — presumably because that’s what Diana told them,” the website reported. Penn’s representative also told TMZ a meeting was possible.”
Anyone else as sick as I am of know-it-all rich celebrities sucking up to America hating communists?
You want to impress me, Mr. Penn? Go visit our troops in Iraq or Afghanistan and thank them for defending your right to make movies and spend your wealth visiting scumbags like Castro and Chavez.
Otherwise, do us all a favor and stay in Cuba. You obviously think it’s a better place than America.
Previously on this blog, I’ve written of Obama’s plans to re-brand 9/11 with the help of the DNC and Organizing for America, Obama’s political action group.
Organizing for America recently published, on their public website, their plans to use 9/11 to push Obama’s agenda by making it a day to call legislators in an organized campaign.
In their own words, they said the following:
“All 50 States are coordinating in this – as we fight back against our own Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists who are subverting the American Democratic process, whipped to a frenzy by their FOX Propaganda network ceaselessly re-seizing power for their treacherous leaders.”
“and according to a White House Advisor to the President with whom I spoke ten days ago at a DNC Panel, he said, “ON ONE DAY, you “burn up” the Senate Switchboards – the NEXT DAY you’ve got the Senator’s attention.” We will achieve that effect, on Friday, Patriot Day 9/11.”
This language has since been SCRUBBED from the OFA website but thanks to the Heritage Foundation, we have a screen capture. Click the image to enlarge.
Two things are crystal clear.
1. The Obama Adminsitration, in partnership with the DNC and Organizing for America, is using the tradgedy of 9/11, a national American tradgedy, to promote a political agenda. This is sick.
2. The Obama Administration, with the same partnerships, has declared war on FOX News which they clearly view as an enemy. This is something that would have caused left (including the media) to scream FASCISM from the rooftops if the Bush Administration had targeted a network, ANY network, in a similar fashion.
The Obama Adminsitration, OFA and the DNC are subverting a moment of national identity which should be above any partisanship, as it was on September 11, 2001. It is an insult to ALL Americans that they would do so.
A growing number of people in this country are beginning to believe it is under attack from within. Those of us who speak out are called terrorists (this, from the party of Bill Ayers) and propagandists by the very people who are using fear tactics and propaganda as they try to change the system to suit their agenda.
Science fiction is becoming reality. The British government is going to watch people on monitor screens placed in their homes. What for? To make sure they’re living the right way…
“THOUSANDS of the worst families in England are to be put in “sin bins” in a bid to change their bad behaviour, Ed Balls announced yesterday.”
“The Children’s Secretary set out £400million plans to put 20,000 problem families under 24-hour CCTV super-vision in their own homes.”
“They will be monitored to ensure that children attend school, go to bed on time and eat proper meals.”
“Private security guards will also be sent round to carry out home checks, while parents will be given help to combat drug and alcohol addiction.”
“Around 2,000 families have gone through these Family Intervention Projects so far.”
What a difference a new president can make. Listen to Obama cultist, Bill Maher in the following clip from Politically Incorrect in 2005.
Apparently, when George W. Bush was President the government and corporations were one in the same and it was fascism. Nothing like that is happening now though. Right?
The President of the United States took time out of his schedule today to hold a conference call with liberal bloggers and asked them to keep pressure on opponents of his health care plan.
An economy in shambles, unemployment nearing double digits, two wars being waged, and President Obama is on a conference call with bloggers asking them propagandize for him.
“In a reflection of a legislative strategy that has left no stone unturned, President Barack Obama on Monday called on like-minded bloggers to help his administration keep the heat on lawmakers to pass health care reform.”
“It is important just to keep the pressure on members of Congress because what happens is there is a default position of inertia here in Washington,” the president said during an invitation-only conference call. “And pushing against that, making sure that people feel that the desperation that ordinary families are feeling all across the country, every single day, when they are worrying about whether they can pay their premiums or not… People have to feel that in a visceral way. And you guys can help deliver that better than just about anybody.”
It’s like Obama’s advising them on what to write about and how to frame it. Offering suggestions to “make sure people feel that desperation” and saying people have to feel it in a “visceral” way. This is just flat out creepy.
You may remember Obama’s science Czar John Holdren from his appearance in the 1982 fim The Beastmaster as the child sacrificing high priest, Maax.
Actually, Maax was played by Rip Torn, but the character is reminiscent of John Holdren, who Obama has just appointed as his US Science Czar. What you don’t know about John Holdren can hurt you…
The explosive and stunning facts about John Holdren were originally broken by the Zombie Time blog which exposed some information about Holdren that reads like science fiction.
John Holdren co-authored a book in 1977 which advocated some pretty weird and scary ideas.
• Women could be forced to abort their pregnancies, whether they wanted to or not;
• The population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nation’s drinking water or in food;
• Single mothers and teen mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to other couples to raise;
• People who “contribute to social deterioration” (i.e. undesirables) “can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility” — in other words, be compelled to have abortions or be sterilized.
• A transnational “Planetary Regime” should assume control of the global economy and also dictate the most intimate details of Americans’ lives — using an armed international police force.
If you still doubt that such a person could be appointed “Science Czar” by an American president and that these quotes can’t possibly be real, you may want to read David Freddoso’s piece on the subject form the Washington Examiner where he wrote:
“Given the general unreliability of Internet quotations, I wanted to go straight to this now-rare text and make sure the reports were both accurate and kept Holdren’s writings in context. Generally speaking, they are, and they do.”
Front Page Mag points out that John Holdren also believes in the “redistribution” of blood and treasure. Great!
“The redistribution of blood and treasure were high priorities for Holdren, et. al. They advised the “de-development of overdeveloped countries…should be given top priority” (p. 926), and such nations — e.g., the United States and the developed West — should “divert their excess productivity into helping the poorer people of the world rather than exploiting them” (p. 931).”
Shocked? Surprised? Funny the media kept telling us last year that Obama is not a radical and has no ties to radicals of any kind. I’m almost starting to think they weren’t telling the truth.
“While it is harder to exactly count the number of Obama administration czars, with yesterday’s appointment it seems fair to say it is now certainly in excess of 18.”
“In addition to Bersin, we have energy czar Carol Browner, urban czar Adolfo Carrion, Jr., infotech czar Vivek Kundra, faith-based czar Joshua DuBois, health reform czar Nancy-Ann DeParle, new TARP czar Herb Allison, stimulus accountability czar Earl Devaney, non-proliferation czar Gary Samore, terrorism czar John Brennan, regulatory czar Cass Sunstein, drug czar Gil Kerlikowske, and Guantanamo closure czar Daniel Fried. We also have a host of special envoys that fall into the czar category including AfPak special envoy Richard Holbrooke, Mideast peace envoy George Mitchell, special advisor for the Persian Gulf and Southwest Asia Dennis Ross, Sudan special envoy J. Scott Gration and climate special envoy Todd Stern. That’s 18.”
“The Obama administration plans to appoint a “Special Master for Compensation” to ensure that companies receiving federal bailout funds are abiding by executive-pay guidelines, according to people familiar with the matter.”
“The administration is expected to name Kenneth Feinberg, who oversaw the federal government’s compensation fund for victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, to act as a pay czar for the Treasury Department, these people said.”
A “Special Master for Compensation?” A Pay Czar?
Really?
Obama supporters like to attack anyone who says Obama is a Socialist or a Communist. Think Glenn Beck or Sean Hannity.
I think it’s worse than Beck and Hannity even realize. When did the role of “Czar” become an acceptable title in American Government? When did the idea of a Special Master for Compensation become an acceptable idea?
An America with more czars than Mother Russia is not an America headed towards Socialism, it’s an America already embracing Communism.

ABOUT the name... American Glob is a pretty silly name for a conservative leaning libertarian blog, isn't it? There's a reason for that. A long time ago, American Glob was a parody news site. With the country in its present state, I no longer have to make stuff up. Capiche?
