When conservatives complain about Al Sharpton, they usually note his relationship to NBC news or his hosting a show on MSNBC. But a new book says the racial agitator and Democratic Party politician has considerable clout with Fox News, and in fact played a role in getting conservative Glenn Beck fired from the channel.
Fox News host Tucker Carlson says “people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton do not deserve to be called civil rights leaders. They are not. They are hustlers and pimps who make a living off inflaming racial tensions.”
However, The Zev Chafets book, Roger Ailes: Off Camera, has some revealing passages about the clout that Sharpton and Jackson have with the chairman and CEO of Fox News. It says Ailes took a phone call from Sharpton after Beck, then a Fox News host, staged a rally at the Lincoln Memorial 47 years to the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his “I have a dream” speech at the same location. Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally, designed to pay tribute to America’s military personnel and restore traditional values, was strongly attacked by figures such as Sharpton and George Soros-funded groups like Media Matters, then campaigning to have Beck fired from Fox News.
Chafets says Reverend Alveda King, a national pro-life leader, delivered a conservative “I have a dream” message of her own at the Beck-sponsored rally that was “infuriating to many viewers” and Ailes as well. “Ailes didn’t like it much, either,” he reports. However, the book doesn’t explain why Ailes took issue with the rally or the speech.
The book adds, “When Al Sharpton called him [Ailes] to complain, Sharpton was surprised to hear Ailes say he would ‘take care’ of it.” The passage is included in the context of Ailes making a decision that “he would have to get rid of Glenn Beck” and telling Howard Kurtz, then a media reporter with The Daily Beast, that “he was turning down the partisan heat at the network” and was pursuing “a more moderate tone” in programming.
Kurtz, who was recently hired by Fox News, is described by Michael Clemente, Fox’s executive vice president of news, as “the most accomplished media reporter in the country,” despite a series of embarrassments over erroneous and controversial columns and media appearances that resulted in his firing from The Daily Beast.
While the Chafets book is considered sympathetic to the chief of the Fox News Channel, it notes that Beck’s firing followed his strong criticism of billionaire George Soros and a vigorous campaign by various left-wing groups against him.
Chafets also points out that then-Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), another liberal recently hired as a Fox News commentator, is a member of the “roster of Friends of Roger” and an old “buddy” of Ailes.
Accuracy in Media chairman Don Irvine noted that Kucinich was “one of the most liberal members of Congress until he lost his seat after redistricting in 2012,” and that he was “the latest in a string of liberals at Fox, including former Sen. …read more

Most of us fell out of our chairs while watching the mega-hit TV miniseries The Bible when the character portrayed as Satan looked almost exactly like Barack Hussein Obama.
Glenn Beck immediately tweeted out the resemblance, and Rush Limbaugh jumped on the bandwagon the next day.
It was creepy to say the least; and it was reported the Obama administration was in hysterics, with something like fifty million people seeing that particular episode.
Of course, no one honestly thinks Obama is Satan; but the apple does not fall far from the tree.
Last week, the hacker known as Guccifer released a March 21, 2012 email hacked from the account of Colin Powell, an email sent from Andrew Knight, former director of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire News Corp and now working for the Rothchild banking conglomerate. In the email, Knight urges Powell to encourage Tony Blair, the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, to attend the playground of the elite, the Bohemian Grove—long known to take part in an occult ceremony called the Cremation of Care, where members wearing red-hooded robes cremate a coffin effigy at the base of an idol they call Moloch. Conspiracy theorist giant Alex Jones infiltrated the Bohemian Grove in 2000 and videotaped the ceremony, where a mock human sacrifice was offered to a god known as Moloch.
Of course, this is the exact kind of ceremony that Satanists take part in, substituting Moloch for Satan himself.
The Bohemian Grove has been called the American version of the Bilderberg Group, a secret gathering of the rich and powerful to decide how the world will be run. The June 2008 Bilderberg meeting at the Westfields Marriott hotel in Chantilly, Virginia was secretly attended by Democratic rivals Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Mysteriously—or not so mysteriously—Clinton shortly thereafter dropped out of the race, obviously Barack Obama being the candidate of the globalists. And if you look very carefully at the mainstream media coverage shortly after the Bilderberg meeting that began on June 6, almost to the day, the mainstream media switched from supporting Clinton to Obama. For example, Politifact, the go-to source for hit jobs on political opponents, ran a smear piece June 3 comparing Obama to Bush. On June 12, Obama released his so-called short-form birth certificate, which was immediately deemed a fraud. But who do you think began defending Obama almost to the day after the Bilderberg meeting? Politifact. For example, on June 13, Politifact began running articles backing Obama’s phony birth certificate and continued to belch out a stream of articles defending Obama on every front.
The Bohemian Grove is a much different breed than its Bilderberg cousin, held in Monte Rio, California a month after the Bilderberg soirée. Only males are admitted, with reports of male prostitutes that “service” the attendees.
The Cremation of Care ritual always takes place—and guess who was rumored to be there? Barack Hussein Obama—although the black hood portrayed in The Bible …read more

Glenn Beck suggested Tuesday that the ethics investigation into the erstwhile presidential campaign of Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) is retribution for the congresswoman’s outspoken crusade against what she has called the threat of radical Islam.
“We have been sold to radical Islam,” Beck said matter-of-factly on his Internet show. “It has infiltrated and we have documented it.”
Beck continued, claiming that radical Islam is so powerful it affected the nonpartisan Office of Congressional Ethics, which, according to a Daily Beast report, is questioning former Bachmann staffers regarding “allegations of improper transfer of funds and under-the-table payments actions by Bachmann’s presidential campaign.”

Puerto Rico is working to become one of the most serious threats to the U.S.’s taxation empire in the entire world, all because U.S. citizens per an old taxation agreement become exempt from U.S. income taxes if they become residents of the territory. Under Puerto Rico’s remarkable new tax regime, U.S. citizens who become residents of Puerto Rico can potentially find themselves paying zero capital gains taxes, zero dividend taxes, zero property taxes on their new corporate residence, and a minimal 4% flat business tax on income from their business, the only catch being you have to open your business in the commonwealth and not service Puerto Ricans.
The setup is perfect for hedge fund managers, as well as software businesses and internet entrepreneurs.
The Puerto Rican government, which has slowly been abandoning its socialists ways which led it to bankruptcy, is actively perusing free-market reforms and is reportedly seeking to become “an alternative to Singapore.”
Singapore is one of the most free-market tax havens in the world, but citizens of the country are not allowed to have dual citizenship, if they’re U.S. citizens living there they must pay U.S. income taxes in full, and if they choose to renounce their U.S. citizenship to live there full-time they get looted like Facebook’s Eduardo Saverin by the U.S.’s draconian exit tax. Puerto Rico on the other hand is completely open to U.S. citizens, and actually can exempt them from U.S. income taxes if they become residents. That means there is no need for U.S. citizens looking to lower their tax bill to give up their U.S. citizenship in order to escape the U.S.’s previously inescapable global income tax, nor to avoid the U.S.’s exit tax.

There are a lot of cultural cliches American Blacks must navigate.
One, the one I specialize in as a matter of fact, is escaping the cliche where we somehow are obligated to be “professionally angry” at White people ad infinitum.
My “Making Peace With America” emphasis addresses this unpleasant reality head-on. I note for community critics’ sake that Making Peace With America isn’t synonymous with making excuses for her shortcomings.
My activism includes copious complaints against Whites I or others alleged were racially biased. These complaints involved both the public and private sectors.
But, filing complaints against one group of people can’t be the extent of one’s relations with other Americans.
Common traditional values and an inclusive grassroots conservative culture has expanded my Make Peace With America coalition beyond anything professionally angry Black liberals could fathom.
I chuckle when these leftists accuse me of ignoring racism. The record speaks loudly to the contrary- plus, I address liberal racism too, which they don’t like.
One of many myriad forks in the road from progressives is my conclusion that being perpetually peeved is a poor substitute for acknowledging nigh miraculous progress in some areas and coalition building with like-minded souls who happen to be wrapped in different packaging.
Making peace, and keeping it, constitutes the one ingredient the absence of which no civilization can withstand.
Black culture, especially its lower income end, is awash in societal noise. Gunfire, raised voices, loud music, and sirens blaring drown out contemplation and serenity.
Extending this deficit to the outside community means a combative posture where crime and rudeness are considered today’s sad equivalent of civil rights activism.
Those who have yet to make peace with America content themselves to blame White Conservatives for all our ills.
Not all progressives fall in this category.
One progressive spokesman who I think has made peace with America is Dr. Cornel West, a Democratic Socialist who unfailingly calls everyone “brother” and “sister” (opponents Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck included.)
His liberal supporters ought to note this as they fume on camera at yet another “Blame Whitey!” press conference.
Absent staging an armed coup, being professionally angry is a poor substitute for effective problem-solving. It sells tickets, books, and videos but accomplishes nothing!
Making Peace With America for me means operating as an individual free of the limitations of a captive past.
As such, I take Americans (regardless of color) on a case-by-case basis as individuals, instead of tentacles from some collective.
It also means I don’t pull to my proverbial bosom human vipers I call chocolate Klansmen (urban thugs), sun-tanned socialists (Black liberal mouth pieces in office and out), and other enemies because of ethnicity.
Black liberals who run the phrase “Black liberation” into the ground should realize that liberation in its truest form means making peace with America.
If Congressman John Lewis, a liberal icon who was savagely beaten by police throughout his 1960s civil rights career, can make peace with America, what’s the excuse of younger blacks today?
Absent peace, our community and the country surrounding it falls from within.
That doesn’t seem very liberating to me.

Our children’s opportunities to learn based on technological advances has been more than offset by the loss of appreciation of literature and the humanities – including history, theology, philosophy and even economics. Our old friend Jon T. Barton, a classical violinist wrote an 800 page 2 volume work called “The Bible in Western Literature.” He co-authored with attorney John Whitehead a 1981 book, “Schools on Fire” – a prophetic work warning of the now deplorable and unnecessarily expensive condition of American education.
I met a young man recently with a degree in “Environmental Studies” from screwball UCal/Santa Cruz, home of the Banana Slugs. His student loan is $90,000 and he still can’t get a job. His girlfriend has a degree in Psychology and is only $60,000 in debt and can’t get a job either. In a two class society, only the wealthy and their satraps will be able to get a college education.
My Grandson’s Saudi ex-roommate at University of Alaska/Anchorage rolled out his prayer mat then went out to play. He wasn’t hungry to learn so he was happy to return home to his Ferrari’s and servants – compliments of American technology and insane energy, environmental and foreign policies. The “progressives” have created the biggest educational jerk circle in history and we all let them get away with it. History hasn’t been kind to such nations and empires. We’re intelligent enough to turn it around, but are we wise enough?
With the prevailing attitude that every kid should go to college or he’s a loser, we’ve lost much of our ability to make things, provide employment for all skill and intellectual levels and to maintain infrastructure and beauty. Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are classic examples of men who eschewed college to avoid stifling their creativity or be drawn into the perverse world of political correctness. I want my grandkids to think out of their own boxes before they get destroyed by academia and debt as they set their life goals.
My old Cockney friend Leon Shaw made a part for my rare Omega Sea Master watch when Omega in NY couldn’t fix it. He also repaired Big Ben in London and dozens of ancient fancy gold embellished clocks from Brentwood after the earthquake in LA. He even rebuilt a cheap Chinese lathe and converted it to a precision auto-feed miniature parts turning lathe. He made all the stable vortex flowmeter and nozzle parts we designed and tested. He was a displaced Brit after WWII when England took a dive like the “progressives” are doing to us now. Their brain drain helped improve our once vaunted “Yankee ingenuity” – now better known as “Yangtze ingenuity” for obvious reasons.
My boys made usable kitchen spatula’s at Bakersfield’s Chipman JHS in the 1970’s. They learned to measure, cut, file, bend, forge, drill, grind, carve, polish and rivet – all needed to make a simple wood-handled aluminum spatula. We still have one and use it regularly.

Liberal heartthrob Alec Baldwin allegedly had a world-class Dem Crow attack where he recently called a Black New York Post photographer, among other things, a “coon.”
As if “drug dealer” and “crackhead” weren’t enough to call an American Black who’s also a retired NYPD officer?
Alec Baldwin used the “C-Word!” Will Obama and the Congressional Black Caucus ignore daily urban fratricide to banish him from Hollyweird liberaldom?
Not likely.
It warms my heart to see a high-profile member of the so-called “party of the little man” show just how little he always thought of the little man.
If true, don’t expect the pigmentary politburo ruling my figurative side of town (Black America) to fall over themselves chastising him.
That’s reserved for the likes of Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and other conservative white men whom liberals of all colors feel are America’s only racists.
I wonder what Baldwin’s lame excuse will be for this tirade, while worried millions of dollars may possibly slip through his fingers?
Exhaustion?
Demonic possession?
OD?
Bi-polar disorder?
At day’s end (and I could be grievously wrong), nothing will happen because he’s a Hollyweird Democrat, and the mainstream media would have to demonstrate rare integrity to punish him on the merits of this allegation.
We’ll see.
If he did deploy the “C-Word”, he quoted from the old school Democrat handbook on what to call Black folks.
Way to go, Alec!

This is Part IV and the conclusion of my series on The Problems of Women in Combat. View the previous posts here.
On Thursday January 31, 2012, I had the pleasure of participating in a roundtable discussion on the subject of women in combat roles on the Glenn Beck show (members can view the show in full in the website’s archives). I didn’t know Green Beret Greg Stube or Navy Seal Pete Scobell before that day, but we got to know each other well over the course of the show and afterward. I was blown away by their level of sacrifice, what they had endured and overcome, and how they are still serving our country in their current endeavors. “Heroes” doesn’t begin to cover it, but this is not unusual for men in units like these who have seen action again and again. As I listened, I was reminded once again of the truth about the male bond in these elite units and the superhuman things they do.
Watch the series “Surviving the Cut”, which shows the rigorous training men go through to make it into the elite Special Forces. They’ll start off with a hundred men who are already the top performers in their branches, but only ten will make it to graduation. The only example we have of women even attempting such training are two women who attempted the Marines Infantry Officer Course. One washed out after a day, the other after a week.
The decision to open the combat units to women was done without any testing because testing shows that women can’t cut it. To be brutally honest, we can’t even approach cutting it, as anyone who watches this series will be able to see. The truth is that the top 25% of women performers in any branch is equivalent to the bottom 50% of men. The top woman is no comparison to the top man. Some pundits like to say “get the best man for the job, even if the best man is a woman.” The best man in combat is never ever a woman (and women prove it). The best man is always a man. Let’s give them credit where credit is due. Each one who makes it into a combat unit or Special Forces trumps the best woman, and by a large margin. The caliber of man that a high-performing woman could compete with doesn’t make it into the Special Forces. He washes out. Comparing these potential (fictional) women to the men in these units is not just comparing apples to oranges. It’s comparing apples to steak, and the result is to demoralize our country’s strongest, bravest, and most capable men who risk and sacrifice their lives for us doing things that no woman really wants to do.
Another interesting facet of these men as I’ve gotten to know them is that they shun recognition, even refusing their hard-earned benefits from the VA. Compare that to …read more
