“This

National Committee dun notice.
Surely:
The Catholic Church Insurance Company, Limited (Hey, I'm not
making this up!) writes insurance policies to cover losses suffered
by the Catholic Church Unlimited when its priests get caught diddling
little kids. To protect themselves against unnecessary losses (and
let's face it, with all the child molesters running around the
Catholic Church, some losses are necessary...) the CCICL insists that
they be informed when the Higher Ups in the CCU learn that a
particular parish priest
has been caught playing with the parishioners'' kids. They have
files. Extensive files. But they are not going to let anybody see
them.
The
Beat Goes On:
The US reports that it killed 73 'militants' in Brussels
Helmand province, Afghanistan over the weekend. We know they were
militants because they're dead.
Honey
Combed:
US Naval
Captain Daniel Dusek, once the chief of Naval operations for the US
Pacific Fleet, has been jailed for providing classified information
to a Malaysian defense contractor (who passed it on to god knows
who) in return for prostitutes.
Soup
To Nuts:
Hillary Clinton is holding a $175,000 a plate fundraiser in
Hollywood. In the last two months Bernie Sanders has raised more
than $140,000,000 from 2 million donors –that's
$170 a plate.
Fails
Smell
Test:
Obama explained to Argentina the CIA helped their generals overthrow
a democratically elected government, ushering in a reign of terror
that killed over 7,000 and “disappeared” tens of thousands in
order to protect US corporate interests, but
that it was just growing pains from the “early dark days” of the
agency. Which was then only 25 years old. Anybody want to talk
about Kissinger, Allende's
overthrow and the Chicago School of exploitation
Economics?
Our
Master's Voice:
The Netinyahu government has approved a bill mandating that children
under 14 be punished as terrorists.
Self-Governing:
The Brits have decided to repeal their animal welfare laws and
let chicken farmers set the rules for chicken farmers, pig farmers
regulate pig growing and the foxes will continue to oversee the hen
house... what could go wrong?
Left
And Rights:
The same time a federal judge was ruling Alabama's abortion
restrictions
were unconstitutional, Florida's
governor was signing a law that will keep poor women from having
access to safe
abortion procedures and Indiana
passed a law requiring women carrying a fetus with Down syndrome
carry
it to
term as
punishment for getting pregnant.
Happy
Daze: Saudi
Arabia, which claims that democracy
is not needed in the Kingdom because their subjects are happier
“than almost any other people in the world.” Except, of course,
for the guy they just sentenced to 5 years for tweeting something the
Royals didn't like.
Batter
Up: Is it
reasonable to expect that the thaw of relations between Cuba and the
US will lead to American and International companies raping the
country in the name of democracy, capitalism and profit? How long
before the Mob gets to run casinos and whore houses again?
Out
Of Town Tryouts:
The US will fund a multi-million dollar border surveillance system
covering about half the Tunisian/Libyan border. Why only half? And
why – are we trying out some new system that we don't dare use in
Arizona?
Wilder
West: In
Idaho, everybody over 21 can now carry a concealed handgun, no permit
or training required. Drive defensively.
Porn
O'Graph: Down
is down, up is up.

Yet another 'litany of woe' if taken on the whole...and considering how we are fed a steady diet of this, what is the corporate owned media trying to accomplish?
It has certainly sparked protests [which have yet to turn violent...although we don't know that for certain.] The COM is notoriously tight-lipped when it comes to master's bidding.
Are we being set up for another 'shock & awe' campaign or are they just keeping the 'outrage meter' pegged like Rove & Co explained?
Yet another mystery...how was that weasel allowed to slither of into the night unmolested? [not that we aren't all glad to see the back of him!]
wonderful list, as always. sometimes it's hard to believe you don't make these up, but i know better. as they say, Fact is stranger than Fiction. i especially love the part about Cuba, American Business,the casinos and the Mob, et al. The irony in life is deep, way, way deep.
American Exceptionalism. lol
Smells Test: Sanders will smell/talk about the CIA, he sounded like a more straight forward Noam, listing about 7 or so of them in his TYT interview.
