Confusing Actions, An Unbelievable Revelation and Something To Think About and Do

The information provided here should make you uncomfortable with the goings-on in high places aided and abetted by a complicit mainstream media.

1.  This first linked item is an assessment of a magistrate judge's abrupt interruption of the interrogation of the surviving Boston bombing perpetrator in order to read him his Miranda rights. Procedurally things are all out of whack.  The author examines the probable cause of the government, the President and Attorney General in this case, injecting itself in the midst of police interrogations.  He provides three Canards most likely at play based on his reasoning as he winnows his way through some of the odd twists and turns that plague this whole matter.  The bottom line is that the federal government appears to be deflecting the public's attention away from its failures leading up to the disaster and create the illusion that it did a great job preventing another disaster in New York City's Times Square, among other things.  http://www.nationalreview.com/article/346785/obama%E2%80%99s-national-security-fraud

2.  This item is almost unbelievable.  Some of you are already aware that our nation's attorney general has over the years said some really incredible things, maybe unbelievable is the better word.  Mr. Holder, in an April 24 speech to the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund Awards Gala, said that "creating a mechanism for [illegal aliens] to earn citizenship and move out of the shadows... is a matter of civil and human rights."  It is truly hard to believe that he announced that this administration's position is that granting amnesty to illegal immigrants is a matter of "civil rights".  When exactly did that happen?  I know of nothing in our Constitution under which such a claim could be made, especially regards to individuals illegally in this country.  My take is that he was doing nothing more than pandering to a sympathetic audience.  Such is the way our leaders seek to manipulate public thinking on this and other matters.  This guy is our nation's Attorney General for heavens sake!!!  How can this be?  As the author notes:  "Aside from disregarding the interests of American workers and turning the concept of justice on its head, Holder's recent remarks show a very disturbing set of priorities."  Read more here: http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/04/amnesty_as_a_civil_right.html

3.  This last link does not deal directly with either of the above two items.  It does, however, offer observations relevant to why and how such events and behaviors are often passively received by much of the public.  It most definitely provides us with a disturbing perspective and suggests that public passivity must soon be replaced by more active public involvement or we likely face uncomfortable consequences.  Among other things the author notes that "for a variety of reasons -- poor schools, jounalistic malfeasance, whatever -- we live in the age of the 'low-information voter' (LIV), and LIVs are too ignorant to realize how bad thing are."  No longer can we simply throw up our hands and say that "somebody" ought to do something.  http://www.americanthinker.com/2013/04/why_dont_they_do_something.html

Not only are these things worth thinking about but they are things each of us must do something about.
