Can you trust the American media?




No one in mainstream media seems inclined to mention Barack Obama’s horrifying mistake last Thursday when, speaking at Fort Drum,  he said that SFC Jared Monti was “the first person who I was able to award the Medal of Honor to who actually came back and wasn’t receiving it posthumously.” Alas, he was mistaken. He awarded the Medal of Honor to Jared Monti posthumously in 2009 and awarded the Medal of Honor in person to SSG Sal Giunta in person in 2011. Obama later apologized for this mistake, but it’s really dismaying that a president who spoke movingly and even eloquently in awarding the Medal of Honor made a mistake of this magnitude.

“It shouldn’t take a teleprompter for the C-in-C to get it right,” writes military blogger Black Five. It’s interesting that mainstream media journalists who are so eager to zing Michele Bachmann for getting John Wayne’s birthplace wrong, have not been interested in asking whether this was a mistake Obama made in ad libbing or whether the White House speechwriters and fact-checkers fell down on the job. You might think that their chief motive is to make Obama look good and to suppress facts that make him look bad.

'Anonymous' hackers declare war on Orlando!!!

To The Orlando City Visitor Board

June 29, 2011

The City of Orlando has ignored our warnings, and our generous
offer of a cease fire. On Wednesday last you not only arrested
two more people for feeding but you arrested the worldwide
President of Food Not Bombs Keith McHenry. This is a
declaration of war.

Henceforth there will be no more cease fires, no more attempts
to get you to resolve this issue with human decency. We will
now treat you like the human rights abusers that you are.

Anonymous will now begin a massive campaign against you and
your city web assets. Everyday we will launch a new DDoS attack
on a different Target. We will continue to E-Mail millions of
people in 50 countries with the Boycott Orlando campiagn message.

In our experience a government that acts this way is also corrupt.
We therefore call on any government or police employee who has
evidence

 of any kind of wrongdoing to consider disclosing it to
http://www.LocalLeaks.tk an organization that specializes in
dealing with local disclosures.

We have said what we have to say. The media has many press
releases and communiques from us. From now on we will DO not talk.
Journalists should follow the Twitter for that days targeted take
down or other un-planned assaults.

On June 30th at 10:00 AM ET Anonymous removed
from the world wide web www.visitorlando.com and it
remained down until 6:00 PM ET. We will also E-Mail Bomb
the owners of this site, identified as the OCVB.

We Are Anonymous - We Are Everywhere - We Are Legion - We Never
Forget - We Never Forgive

FREE Keith McHenry

EXPECT US -- Anonymous

P.S. To the Orlando City Visitor Board you can have your web site removed from our Target list by releasing a statement to the press in support of Food Not Bombs and calling on the City of Orlando
to stop the arrests.

One of the activists arrested after feeding the homeless at Lake Eola Park said he will file a defamation lawsuit against Mayor Buddy Dyer for calling members of his anti-poverty group "food terrorists."
Ben Markeson said Dyer should not be so cavalier with his use of the "terrorist" label, particularly when describing those charged with the misdemeanor offense of distributing food without a permit.
"It just shows Mayor Dyer doesn't understand the issues involved," Markeson said.
Markeson has been arrested along with other members of Orlando Food Not Bombs for defying the city's ordinance that prohibits sharing food with large groups in downtown parks without a permit.
