PERCEPTION IS EVERYTHING......

Did you ever wonder how our President is perceived throughout the world?

This is how artist Carlos Latuff of Brazil sees our President and the U.S. relationship to other countries.

While at home our President is perceived, by many, like this......

There are some who perceive him as this......

I personally think he's getting a bum wrap on the third one.

ARE WE ALL FEELING SAFER, NOW THAT WE'VE GOT THE UNLIMITED POWER TO DEFEND OUR COUNTRY?

So, once again our Liar of the First Office is telling us how much he believes in a free and prosperous country, while simply signing into law an act that can put anyone, any time, anywhere, into prison for any reason, without trial or charges.

Is it just me? Or does that sound like Hitler has been resurrected?

Yes folks.... the same man who got elected on principles we all wanted to believe in, has signed into power the "National Defense Authorization Act". NDAA for short.
And with this act comes some really fun stuff for a "Democracy". Like being able to detain anyone at any time for any reason without the inconvenient need for a trial or filing charges. Thanks.... Mr. President. I feel so much safer.

I know it's probably not my place to point this out, but isn't there a few amendments to the Constitution that this sort of ignores????????

Like IV, V, and VI for starters? Not to mention VII and VIII.
And,... while we're on the subject,... what about that little innocuous document called "The Bill Of Rights"? What ever happened to that?

"IF YOU AREN'T OUTRAGED,... YOU AREN'T PAYING ATTENTION"

IF CONGRESS HAS THEIR WAY, YOU AND I WILL NEVER HEAR THE TRUTH AGAIN !!!

Congress is about to vote on two bills that could change the way we receive information for ever. The "SOPA"(Stop Online Piracy Act), and the "PIPA"(Protect internet Piracy Act) are the most insidious attacks on our rights to know the truth since the Warren Commission sealed away their report on JFK's assassination. It is virtually pissing on the first amendment of the Constitution, and that's just for starters.
Got Freedom??? Not for long. If Congress gets away with this, what we know as democracy will be gone forever. The wheels of Fascism roll heavy and hard. Free speech is what's at stake here. Make no mistake about it.

Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia and sixth most visited site in the world, will join websites like the content aggregator Reddit to "go dark" on Wednesday in opposition to the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and its companion bill, the Protect IP Act (PIPA), which are currently being debated in Congress. "What these bills propose are new powers for the government and also for private actors to create, effectively, blacklists of sites that allegedly are engaging in some form of online infringement and then force service providers to block access to those sites," says Corynne McSherry, intellectual property director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation. "What we would have is a situation where the government and private actors could censor the net." Chief technology officials in the Obama administration have expressed concern about any "legislation that...undermines the dynamic, innovative global Internet." But the bills’ main backers—Hollywood movie studios and music publishers—want to stop the theft of their creative content, and the bills have widespread bipartisan support. A vote on SOPA is on hold in the House now, as the Senate is still scheduled vote on PIPA next Tuesday.

If ever there was a time to call your representatives and voice your opinion,... now is that time.
