Your One Minute News Digest

• The Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee responsible for nutrition guidelines is calling for the adoption of “plant-based” diets, taxes on dessert, trained obesity “interventionists” at worksites, and electronic monitoring of how long Americans sit in front of the television. This Federal leftist idiocy is in a 571-page report detailing its plans to “transform the food system.” The report is open for public comment for 45 days. It is imperative that every citizen write comments to derail this intrusion into Americans’ freedom.

• “Here in America,” Obama stated at the so-called summit on violent terrorism, “Islam has been woven into the fabric of our country since its founding.” Hmmmmm. Really? In what way? Let’s examine that statement. Thomas Jefferson knew Islam, having been educated in 1786 as Barbary pirates demanded tribute from American ships. At that time, there was a Barbary emissary who justified piracy as mentioned in the Koran. Jefferson wrote: “The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in their Koran, that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners.” The historical record is clear that Islam had no role except as a negative notation about freedom and self-government. Obama is supposed to be educated. Obviously he didn’t pay much attention to American History.

• Obama will do anything to fly through hoops to avoid dealing with Islamic Terrorists. According to the CNN website: Some federal and local law enforcement groups view the domestic terror threat from sovereign citizen groups as equal to — and in some cases greater than — the threat from foreign Islamic terror groups, such as ISIS, that garner more public attention. This conclusion came from The Homeland Security/FBI report, which counts 24 violent sovereign citizen-related attacks across the U.S. since 2010.
• Mayor Giuliani challenged Obama’s love of America. He has a point when you consider Homeland Security’s plans for H-1B visa holders. Not only are these workers not allowed by law, but DHS is planning on issuing work permits to their spouses. In other words there are some 200,000 H-1B holders in the USA today, all of which are in jobs formerly held by American citizens, who are now basically unemployed. Now Obama wants to double that number and make more Americans unemployed. Does this seem to verify Giuliani’s claim?
• Obama imported about 70,000 illegal aliens last year from Latin America. So far 93% have NOT shown up for deportation hearings, according to Stephen Frank.
• Watch out for “Net Neutrality”. What it means is that if one news outlet has fewer viewers than another, the government will cut off access to viewers of the more viewed outlet until there is equality in viewership, all in the name of fairness. The government is then determining what it is that you should be able to view. This is a clear violation of freedom, free choice and encourages conformity. Freedom is dying before our eyes. Fight “Net Neutrality”.
• Obama thinks “global warming” is more important than fighting terrorism. That is like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic while it is sinking.
