The Mexican Government Burns Hidden Marijuana Desert Farm And Arrests Farmers

    Listen closely. Do you hear that howling sound. That's the cries of rappers all over the world, bawling at the sight of the Mexican government burning the largest marijuana field in their nation's history, while arresting the farmers that cultivated it in the desert.

    Mexican solider: dude, do you smell that?

    Do you know how many male rappers would have wanted to run through those fields, like a woman picking flowers on a sunny summer day. Not to mention, Bob Marley is rolling in his grave at this development (I'm just teasing).

    It looks like a Christmas tree, but it certainly is not!

    The farm hidden beneath black mesh netting (tarpaulin), designed to conceal the illegal, lucrative crop, was spotted by helicopter, drawing the attention of the Mexican government.

    Weed fields covered in tarp. Unlike the TARP Bush/Obama issued, this one actually made a lot of money (kidding)

    In all seriousness, one has to give the Mexican government credit for its war on drugs, as it has been a massive effort. They've made so many arrests and seizures of cocaine and marijuana, it's amazing. Well done.

Officials Officially Pronounce Obama's Stimulus A Massive Failure That Added Billions To The National Debt


    Barack Obama

    Everyone from Alan Greenspan to Barack Obama's economic committee, have pronounced the President's stimulus a catastrophic failure that wasted huge amounts of taxpayer money in the billions. Mainstream newspapers and blogs have gone into overdrive, taking the president to task for the enormous waste that has set America even further behind.

    A year and a half ago, on November 13, 2009, the Judiciary Report predicted this would happen (Obama Calls For Job Summit). It is now being stated this week, it would have been cheaper for Obama to, "Cut a $100,000 check to everyone whose employment was allegedly made possible by the 'stimulus.'”

    STORY SOURCE

    Obama’s Economists: ‘Stimulus’ Has Cost $278,000 per Job

    12:07 PM, Jul 3, 2011 - The stimulus is now causing the economy to shed jobs. When the Obama administration releases a report on the Friday before a long weekend, it’s clearly not trying to draw attention to the report’s contents. Sure enough, the “Seventh Quarterly Report” on the economic impact of the “stimulus,” released on Friday, July 1, provides further evidence that President Obama’s economic “stimulus” did very little, if anything, to stimulate the economy, and a whole lot to stimulate the debt.

    The report was written by the White House’s Council of Economic Advisors, a group of three economists who were all handpicked by Obama, and it chronicles the alleged success of the “stimulus” in adding or saving jobs. The council reports that, using “mainstream estimates of economic multipliers for the effects of fiscal stimulus” (which it describes as a “natural way to estimate the effects of” the legislation), the “stimulus” has added or saved just under 2.4 million jobs — whether private or public — at a cost (to date) of $666 billion. That’s a cost to taxpayers of $278,000 per job.

    In other words, the government could simply have cut a $100,000 check to everyone whose employment was allegedly made possible by the “stimulus,” and taxpayers would have come out $427 billion ahead...

    Down on the Fourth of July: the United States of gloom

    July 3rd, 2011 - NEWS REVIEW: America’s deepening recession and widespread pessimism about the country’s prospects add a bitter note to Independence Day, reports Toby Harnden, US Editor. Across America today, people will gather for barbecues in their backyards, parades through their towns and firework displays lighting up the night sky. They’ll be celebrating Independence Day – the birthday of the United States and the 235th anniversary of shaking off the oppressive yoke of British rule...

    That’s the good news. On the flip side, however, a country whose hallmark has always been a sense of irrepressible optimism is in the grip of unprecedented uncertainty and self-doubt. With the United States mired in three foreign wars, beaten down by an economy that shows few signs of emerging from deep recession and deeply disillusioned with President Barack Obama, his Republican challengers and Congress, the mood is dark.

    The last comparable Fourth of July was probably in 1980, when there was a recession, skyrocketing petrol prices and an Iranian hostage crisis, with 53 Americans being held in Tehran. Frank Luntz, perhaps America’s pre-eminent pollster, argues that his countrymen are much more downbeat now than in 1980. “The assumption with the Carter years was that it was a failure of the elites, not the system. We thought the people in charge screwed up. We didn’t blame ourselves.” Remarkably, many Americans think things will only get worse and the good times will never return.

    A recent New York Times/CBS poll found that 39 per cent think that “the current economic downturn is part of a long-term permanent decline and the economy will never fully recover”. That was up from 28 per cent last October. Last month, a CNN poll found that 48 per cent of Americans believe another Great Depression is somewhat or very likely.

    Luntz has found that 44 per cent of Americans believe their country’s best days are in the past, 57 per cent that their children will not achieve the same quality of life, and 53 per cent that they are less free than five years ago. So what is going on? ...

Movie Review - Code Hunter

    Title: Code Hunter

    Year Of Release: 2002

    Review Date: June 30, 2011

    Rating: R

    Running time: 100 minutes

    Box Office Gross: N/A

    Site Rating: 3 out of 10 stars

    "Code Hunter" is the fictional story of a hacker being blackmailed into stealing technology for an unscrupulous enemy that seeks to control, then wipe out humanity with their insanity. He seeks help from a newscaster, played by Vanessa Marcil (the mother of Megan Fox's stepson) who is reluctant to assist him, due to his story being ambiguous.

    The film has guest appearances by rappers Coolio and Tone Loc. This film contains unnecessary cursing, which is why it was probably slapped with an R rating, limiting its audience. Though the film was somewhat low budget, it wasn't that bad in how it was filmed, in terms of picture quality and special efx.Source URL: http://crystal-harris-sum.blogspot.com/search/label/government

Obama Has Lost Sight Of His Goals


    President Barack Obama

    U.S. President Barack Obama has lost sight of the goals and lofty ideals he professed, when he swept to victory and into office a year and a half ago. This abandonment of ethics has greatly damaged his presidency, leaving many bewildered and confounded.

    It is always sad when politicians stray from what they initially claim to be their moral code, as in the end, the people suffer when they are not given what they were promised. It's the general wish of all men to have a better life. We are all striving for something better and deserve more than broken promises.

Snooki Slams Obama


    President Barack Obama

    MTV "Jersey Shore" reality TV star, Snooki, has slammed U.S. President Barack Obama for putting a tax on tanning beds. She said Obama wants everyone to be pale and former Presidential candidate, John McCain would not have done that. McCain agrees with her. Obama's talking smack, because he's already brown (just kidding).

    Snooki

    What Snooki must understand is the government is broke and looking to raise money anyway it can. Not to mention, tanning beds are cancerous. It's safer to use a gentle tanning product that is applied to the skin to give a brown or golden glow.

Obama Numbers Down Across The Board

    U.S. President Barack Obama (left)

    According to headlines on the website, Drudge Report, Obama's approval ratings have dropped to 44% and 63% of Americans want his health care law repealed.

    Additional reports on the internet from numerous news and government sites, indicate jobless claims also unexpectedly rose again and foreclosures in America remain high.

    It is abundantly evident to anyone with commonsense the economy is still in massive trouble and the measures being taken by the government to correct the depression that occurred in 2008 that is ongoing, have failed.

    Thrift should have been the order of the day, but the government deciding otherwise, has made the financial crisis exponentially worse. The government has racked up significant debt the American people will have to repay or face further financial uncertainties and a drastic deterioration of the economy.

Obama White House Briefing On Oil Spill

    U.S. President Barack Obama

    During a press conference held today in Washington, D.C., U.S. President Barack Obama's White House briefed the world on the oil spill in Louisiana, which happened under the watch of BP, Halliburton and Transocean.

    Adm. Thad Allen (left) and White House press secretary Robert Gibbs (right)

    Government advisors acting in the capacity of oversight, spoke of what they intend to do to address the problem. A relief well is being assembled by the oil companies, in a bid to skim some of the thousands of gallons of oil per day, gushing from beneath the ocean, thereby diverting it into containment units, such as ships. It's amazing to think a trillion dollars in oil is floating in the Gulf of Mexico.

"Off Label Use" - Part 2

    Topamax

    6-months ago, the Judiciary Report wrote a series of articles, beginning on November 19, 2009, regarding the "Off Label Use" of the terrible pharmaceutical drug Topamax and its debilitating effects. "Off Label Use" is a term used when drug companies promote their products for uses other than what they were originally intended and approved for by the government.

    Topamax is an epilepsy medication, but doctors, under the instruction of pharmaceutical companies, began prescribing it for other medical conditions, such as migraines, thunderclap headaches, depression and as a diet drug, because they were paid to do so. They greedily marketed it as a cure-all drug to cover a wide range of medical ailments, when it is a dangerous pharmaceutical.

    6-months later on Friday, May 21, 2010, Johnson & Johnson, the makers of the drug, Topamax, pled guilty to pushing the pharmaceutical drug Topamax for uses other than what it was approved for by the government, using doctors in pay for play schemes, who then prescribed it to their patients under said inducements. They have agreed to pay over $80 million dollars in government fines.

    I was speaking from experience when I wrote those articles last year, as I had a stress induced brain hemorrhage and was prescribed Topamax in 2009, for the headaches and head pains I began to experience after the incident, due to ongoing acute emotional distress and harassment.

    I resisted taking the medication, a fact that was noted in my medical records more than once, as based on my significant understanding of pharmaceutical drugs, it did not seem like something someone who had experienced the unprecedented type of brain hemorrhage I did, should be prescribed.

    However, a female doctor, who was a trainee at the teaching hospital, got upset during a follow up visit they ordered and demanded I take the medication.

    Concerned they would discontinue treatment, while I was still very sick from the hemorrhage and angiogram they botched, leaving me with nerve damage in my right leg, I took the Topamax.

    Within two days of doing so, I was as sick as a parrot, due to the Topamax. It was worse than the stress induced brain hemorrhage. I developed a condition known as metabolic acidosis, which is the end result of medication creating an environment in the body that promotes acid in the blood, which is horrible. In essence, it is like blood poisoning.

    The first signs of it was a very elevated heart rate, which simulated the feeling of having a heart attack and involuntary hyperventilation, which is the lungs trying to blow off the excess carbon dioxide, thanks to the Topamax.

    It reached a crescendo on the day before Thanksgiving last year. I fell asleep and one hour later, was awoken by a terrible pain on my right side that was wrapping around from my back to my ribs and depressing my breathing to the point I had stopped taking in oxygen. In short, I was choking to death in my sleep, with a sharp pain on the right side of my back and ribs, constricting to the point, I could barely move.

    When I was finally able to move and stand up, I started breathing again, but when I slowly walked over to a mirror, I noticed I was shaking like a leaf, a term known as "tremors" which was created by the Topamax.

    I asked my mom to call 911, as I was concerned I would lapse into a coma and die and the pain in the ribcage constricting my breathing, was still there. It literally hurt to breathe. The ambulance took me to the hospital that originally prescribed the Topamax, after the paramedics noticed the tremors.

    The hospital did everything they could to limit liability, realizing I was experiencing a very adverse reaction to the Topamax, an epilepsy drug, they had prescribed to me, someone without epilepsy, who was experiencing headaches and head pains (linger effects of the hemorrhage) and nerve pain in my leg (due to the botched angiogram).

Bill Signed To Block Obama Birth Certificate Requests

Bleak U.S. Jobs Report

Conservatives And Liberal Democrats To Form Government

    British Prime Minister, David Cameron and wife, Samantha Cameron

    With the pending political formation of a Conservative led, Liberal Democrat backed government on the horizon in United Kingdom, it gives both parties the chance to brainstorm and come up with ideas in the best interest of Britain.

    Liberal Democrat chief, Nick Clegg

    Though they share contrasting views, it could afford Britons the best of both worlds, if the most useful and beneficial ideas are distilled into one governing format.

Arizona Governor Changes Immigration Law


    U.S. President Barack Obama's Department of Justice dropped the ball and the economy is paying a price for it

    The Governor of Arizona, Jan Brewer, made change changes to the controversial Arizona immigration bill in America, hoping to pacify public outcry, that has gone international, while the Department of Justice, continues to waste time. The amendments only stipulate racial profiling is illegal, but that will not stop some from engaging in it, under the color of law enforcement.

    When most people think of immigrants in America, they assume it is in reference to non-white people. Hispanics compose the largest number of immigrants to America and as a result, they will be unfairly targeted, via racial profiling in Arizona.

    Numerous people, businesses and the state of California, have threatened a sweeping boycott of Arizona, in light of the inhumane immigration bill that violates the U.S. constitution.

    Some of the features of the contemptible bill include, as mentioned previously, racial profiling, which will largely target Hispanics in the state of Arizona, whether they are legal or illegal immigrants, spontaneous searches demanding people produce proof of U.S. citizenship, in violation of the Fourth Amendment and six months incarceration if one is found to be in the United States unlawfully.

    All lawmakers in Arizona have managed to do is give the state a bad name on a national and international level as human rights abusers, run up taxpayer tabs, via imprisoning illegal immigrants for 6 months, cut their statewide work force, damaged a number of local businesses relying on cost effective labor and removed massive sums of money from their state's coffers, by unjustly putting hard working illegal immigrants in prison, who were paying their way in America.

    If you are an illegal, it is very hard to get benefits and live off the U.S. taxpayers. Therefore, you have to pay your way, feeding, clothing and housing yourself, by shopping at local supermarkets, eating at local restaurants, buying clothes from Arizona businesses and fuel from local gas stations.

    That's money, which was going into the Arizona economy, while jobs many Americans do not want to do, such as working in the farming industry (picking produce in the fields all day), construction field (assisting on construction sites and handyman type jobs), the garment industry (sewing clothes several hours a day) and the hospitality and food service industries.

    This bill was a terrible, ill-conceived idea that only stands to hurt Arizona and America. In closing, locking someone up for six months, because they were seeking a better life in another country, is appalling.

Obama Meets With Billy Graham


    President Barack Obama and Billy Graham

    U.S. President Barack Obama met with America's most well-known preacher, the wonderful, Billy Graham, who prayed with him. It is my hope President Obama takes away from the meeting, a renewed respect for human life, as his lift of the stem cell ban was the worst decision he has made in his young presidency.

    Chinese President, Hu Jintao, consoled victims of the terrible earthquake that hit China last week, killing over 2,000 people. Previously, Jintao, was often seen smiling in public when greeting his constituents and foreign leaders, but international papers noted he let his compassionate side show in visiting, embracing and encouraging earthquake survivors this week. Jintao promised them "new homes" stating the region "will be rebuilt" and they "will have bright futures." That was nice.

Poland's Political Crisis

    President Lech Kaczynski memorial

    Poland is facing a political crisis in the aftermath of the death of President Lech Kaczynski and 94 members of his government, who were killed in a plane crash, shrouded in conspiracy theories of foul play.

    It is a government's worst nightmare. It also serves as additional proof, key members of the same government should not travel together, as one accident can destabilize a nation.

    The Polish people are making plans to regroup and reorganize, calling for elections to be held as soon as possible. The Judiciary Report sends its condolences and sympathy to the people of Poland in this terrible tragedy.

Lisa Raye: The Real McCoy

    Warning: contains some inappropriate language that is beeped out, but not enough for you not to know what they said!

    Lisa Raye McCoy has debut her new reality show titled "The Real McCoy" and it does not paint her in a flattering light. McCoy is a Hollywood actress that had a few minor film roles and co-starred on a sitcom that was moderately successful.

    She then met and married Michael Misick, then Premier of Turks and Caicos, located in the Caribbean. She admits it was a business marriage and not one of love. Together, they overspent the people's money to the tune of $20,000,000, which ended in Britain returning the island to colony status, a move that was not welcome in the Caribbean or by CARICOM.

    Lisa Rae McCoy and Michael Misick

    McCoy states Misick told her he had $180,000,000, which is stunning considering the British government reports he went into office with $15,000 - $50,000 in his bank account.

    There were reports of frequent shopping trips by the First Couple, where they dropped $100,000 minimum during each spending spree, purchasing the finest clothes and jewelry money can buy. She flew in her Hollywood friends to the island on private jets at $50,000 per trip. The couple took expensive vacations and bought real estate all over the world, all out of the people's money, leading to the financial ruination of the nation.

    Misick lost his footing and began living like a rich movie star. He even began dressing like Scarface, with a cigar hanging out of his mouth, rather than a Prime Minister.

    One of Raye's friends she brought to meet Misick, who is the co-host of B.E.T.'s 106 & Park, had an affair with the Premier behind her back, infuriating McCoy.

    Turks and Caicos is a beautiful place with so much economic potential, but rather that building on what the nation has in its favor, Misick became sidetracked through questionable financial choices he made and it led to the collapse of the government.

    Kai (Lisa Rae's daughter), Lisa Raye McCoy and sister Da Brat (incarcerated rapper)

    Now McCoy is back in Hollywood and almost broke. Misick is up on corruption charges in Turks and Caicos and McCoy is still clinging to the title of First Lady in restarting her career, even comparing herself to U.S. First Lady Michelle Obama. Sorry, but Mrs. Obama would not have said, "I have a new leash on life" during a radio broadcast.

    The reality show The Real McCoy is at times very awkward to watch. You see a woman financially struggling to come back to earth, after living like a queen. Her eyes water like an onion is present, at news from Al Sharpton and a lawyer, who inform her, there is no money to get out of Misick and his creditors may pursue her. McCoy in turn asks if she can beat Misick up to get the money...which isn't even his to begin with, as it belongs to Turks and Caicos.

    McCoy is very haughty in this reality series and it does her no favors. Her daughter is definitely her best accomplishment, as she is a beautiful girl that speaks well and carries herself with a humility that translates well on screen. She could learn something from her daughter.

Qatar Diplomat In U.S. Terrorism Scare Released

    Video: Police Release Smoker in Plane Scare

    Mohammed Al-Madadi, the Qatar diplomat that caused a scare on a U.S. plane in Colorado yesterday, has been released, after being detained for allegedly attempting to ignite a shoe bomb.

    It is now being claimed it was a misunderstanding, due to the diplomat having gone to the bathroom to illegally smoke a cigarette. When confronted about the smoke emanating from the airplane toilet, believing he had been racially profiled, he reportedly joked he was attempting to set off a shoe bomb.

    If this version of events are true, under the circumstances, such a joke is not funny. In light of the airplane tragedies that have happened as a result of terrorism, with one occurring just 3 and 1/2 months ago, such a joke is insensitive.

    Mohammed Al-Madadi should face disciplinary action in his home country for smoking on a plane and making such a joke, which resulted in a national emergency, money expended on law enforcement and military response and more importantly, distress to fellow passengers. Why was he smoking in the bathroom when it is prohibited.

    Officials: Jet restroom smoker caused bomb scare

    50 minutes ago - DENVER — A Middle Eastern diplomat who set off a national terrorism scare when he grabbed a surreptitious smoke in a jetliner's bathroom and then joked about lighting his shoe on fire has been released from custody and will likely not face criminal charges.

    The scare prompted the military to scramble fighter jets to escort the Boeing 757 to the Denver airport Wednesday night. But no explosives were found on the flight.

    Authorities speaking on condition of anonymity said they don't think the envoy was trying to hurt anyone and he will not be criminally charged...
