A community poisoned, city engineer and mayor now felons for long term conspiracy concerning water, a working police chief charged with a felony, voting machines tampered with, and the little guy(federal witness) bucking the system, who’s girlfriend died because of the water. The community is trying to keep everything secret while persecuting him. Look at Stover MO topics, signs @ pallet company. We are just questioning what is happening here. Grand jury indictments set for 20 years without being served, the witness has been unprotected, his animals hung, life threatened, criminally set-up, and basically put through hell. Please help question this and get the word out. This is a small community plight that should be every State’s Citizen, State Representative and Senators concern. Please help us...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99704500378481622.post-87153567156580097272012-04-18T07:00:18.741-07:002012-04-18T07:00:18.741-07:00Tweel,

It would give the government the power to shut down any website where copyrighted material was posted based on complaints from copyright holders. No hearing in a court of law would be necessary. One copyrighted picture could be used to shut down all of blogger.com for instance. That would be that. No recourse. This would make it virtually impossible for any website that allowed users to post to remain in business. The MSM would then be the only voice left. Those laws were only tangentially related to copyright protection. Their real purpose was to limit freedom of speech.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Coal GuyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99704500378481622.post-80450973251834685482012-04-17T08:03:32.782-07:002012-04-17T08:03:32.782-07:00Our news media has been in the business of selling...Our news media has been in the business of selling lies for over 100 years now. It's become more obvious with the Internet and near-instant fact-checking, but it's been there all the time.<br /><br />The previous media moguls realized that they needed to provide some truth so that the lies would be easier to swallow. Now we have journalists instead of reporters, and 'news' invented from their imaginations. They also aren't doing so well financially, as more and more people stop paying for the privilege of being lied to. The media still has great power, but it's shrinking. As their coverage drifts further away from reality, it will continue to shrink.tweellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164718561825615886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99704500378481622.post-22661042030579786972012-04-16T09:40:47.037-07:002012-04-16T09:40:47.037-07:00An update on fed, debt, and other financial stuff....An update on fed, debt, and other financial stuff....You've all probably seen this before, but maybe not...<br /><br /><i>Did you know that in 2011, The Fed purchased 61% of the total net Treasury obligations that were issued?

Somehow, a satisfactory life is only to be gained by having a hot shot career to feed the ego and afford all the crap they tell you you absolutely have to have. Everything else in life should be subservient to that goal, especially for women. Contrary to their propaganda, the Left has made it all about power and money. It is fascinating how often those things the Left decries are exactly the things they promote. They are all about isolation, dehumanization and consumption. But, I digress.<br /><br /> Greg, you have figured out, as I have that happiness lies in the people you love, and not in the crap you collect. Ego thrills are nice, and I have a job that I like. But, I work to live, and for the benefit of those I love. Ultimately, family is where it's at.<br /><br /> Just watched a movie called "Young Adult". Every angry young feminist should watch it. Most probably won't get the point.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Coal GuyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-99704500378481622.post-12395043313914909072012-04-16T06:38:12.986-07:002012-04-16T06:38:12.986-07:00Wow, you really got a lot of good stuff in there!
