Recently the Obama administration in what appeared to be a move to try to silent the birther movement may have opened the can of worms. The birth certificate issued by the White house is so heavily photoshopped that it will only add to the hysteria.
Coupled with the fact that the administration has lied about almost virtually everything on the agenda from Obama's connections to the CIA to invading Libya troops that at this point it is insulting to anyone with half a brain.
The Los Angeles Times article plainly white washes the errors with a liberal biased only seen in US media. This article makes the New York Times (toilet paper of cover up record) look like a non-partisan truth teller.
The facts are clear.. "The story of Obama; All in the company," by Wayne Madsen clearly shows the cover up of his CIA ties. The fact that there are no records to indicate that he ever attended Columbia Law school and was infact part of a CIA funded group working in Afghanistan and pakistan has been well documented by Webster Tarpley, Wayne Madsen, Alex Jones, Gerald Celente and others.
The US media is a joke and deserves what is happening to the dinosour media. Obama has fooled the nation with help from the corporate giants. When will people wake up to Hollywood.

Is one game better so far
The Carmelo soap opera is far from over but the Knick's season is. The Denver Nuggets however live to fight another day.
After all this this season's drama the Nuggets could very well lose game 5 in OKC and finish with with a better record and one more victory in the playoffs than Carmelo's team.
I would go out on a limb to say that is a small victory for the average basketball fan in Denver. Who we're drug through countless rumors and mis-formation in what could have been a disastrous season.
George Karl's regular season asset is his playoff flaw, steady patience. In the regular season, the steady patience and demeanor of Karl pushes his team to be B+ in every aspect, in the last four seasons leaving the Nuggets with the usually benchmark 50 win season.
BUT,
In the playoffs I have often been crucial of Karl because of his personal choices. Karl simply plays in-effective lineups for too long.
In the game 3 loss, i was yelling at the TV for Karl to put J.R. Smith in with four minutes left in the fourth quarter, down by eight points to OKC. Karl waited until :48 seconds left to insert Smith down by 8 points. Smith immediately hit a three taking the lead to 5. A free throw or two later, one more 3 from Smith and a last minute heave and they lost by 3, 97-94.
The Nuggets organization should hope Karl retires at the end of this season and everything can end nice and clean. The new roster of whatever players will be left after free agency need a fresh start. Karl must go if we are going to attract any decent free agents or make it to the next level.

Police Brutality does not go away quietly
The disbelief in the voice of Addison Hunold still lingers in his voice as he re-tells the story of his run in with the Denver Police Department on June 19, 2009.
The incident although almost two years ago seems unreal to Addison who describes the incident as, “unbelievable. I can’t still remember it like it was yesterday.”
Addison was passenger to driver Alex Landau on that evening when the Police pulled over the pair for what DPD reported as an illegal left-turn.
Hunold said, “A black guy and a white guy in a big Cadillac. They thought we we’re doing a drug deal or something.”
Hunold admitted that the two had been smoking marijuana in the car before being pulled over and said the car “reeked” of the smell.
When cops approached the vehicle they mentioned the smell when asking for the identification and insurance of Landau.
When re-approaching the vehicle officers asked both to step out of the vehicle and before being searched Hunold surrendered his marijuana voluntarily saying, “I figured he would find it anyway.”
Hunold was naive to the law of proper search and seizer but Landau wasn’t
Landau allowed the police to search the inside of the vehicle but after being asked if they could search the trunk Landau notified the officers that they would need a search warrant to do so. That’s when the abuse began.
Hunold admitted that although his view was impaired sitting in the police cruiser he could see several police piling on top of Landau. He was unaware of the total abuse they inflicted on Landau.
During the episode Landau reported that the police beat him with their fist, batons and flash lights repeatedly until he was unconscious. Although beat to a pulp and brutalized by the police Landau had the awareness to make the paramedics photograph him. The image is a focal point of the investigation and will be certainly used in the oncoming legal pursuit by Landau.
One of the main officers identified in Landau’s case, Ricky Nixon, was fired on April 11, 2011. The firing resulted from another case in which it has been determined he and another officer lied about an incident outside of Denver Diner in 2009.
Hunold said of the officers firing, “it’s about time,” as he reluctantly chuckles.
The civil case has yet to begin but the case of popular opinion is swirling in Denver as the Mayoral race heats up with the issue of police brutality at the forefront.

The Cost of Rehabilitation
The Denver Post report on April 7th is a sad story and is exemplary of the underlying problem with the institutional programs in this country.
I am going to be very delicate about this because I know it involved someone elses life, Anna Villalobos, who I am saddened for.
The perpetrators name has not yet been released but it's ok because I know who it is. It's a name that has troubled me for most of my life. The man who killed his girlfriend in Wheatridge on Thursday, then turning to shoot himself when discovered, I witnessed shoot another person over 20 years ago with my own eyes; my mother.
The situation litters my stomach with deep emotions that only someone who has experienced something similiar could empathize with. Deep rooted hate, anger, love, and other emotions batter my brain in waves as I ponder over the death of a person I have loathed vigoursly throughout my life.
The attempted murder that he committed in 1987 in Lakewood Colorado with a .357 pistol at point black range was not enough to put him away forever and the family of Villalobos nows has to endure the same wave of emotions I am reliving now.
Not only we're there drugs involved in the original attempted murder but the man ran from police for a week before he was caught. In prison he went to school, it appears he worked hard and with the help of a certian former Colorado State Senator he fought for his parole and they gave it to him.
Unfortunately the State didn't act responsibly in accordance with his parole terms and notify the first person he tried to murder. Having to see him walking across a crosswalk in mid-day must have been horrifying to my mother on her drive home from work and i could see the stress on her face as she told me the occurance.
The simple fact of the matter is, the State failed on all accounts. They failed in the first case to give him life without the possibility of parole. They failed by paroling him and not notifying the families he helped to destroy. They failed Villalobos because now her death and her families mourning is all due to the ineptitude of the legal system.
I remember walking up to my house, unlocking the door and being presented with a loaded gun that unloaded in my mother and a failed attempt that went above my sisters head before he fled the scene. And I have witnessed and lived the aftermath of what a person seeking destruction can create in others lives.
It's unfortunate that Villalobos family and imparticular children have to go through for the next few years and my deepest sympathies go out to them.
At least he took his own life so the possibility of parole will never be presented to a jury again.
