Alison Rose Levy: Wisdom 2.0 Panel Explores the Power of New Media for Inner and Outer Transformation

Audio: ABC edited out Sarah Palin's mention of Mark Levin's book
From The Right Scoop via memeorandum, any mention of Mark Levin is banned by ABC News: So what we have here is the establishment MSM that claims that Palin is uninformed because she doesn't read enough, but edits out what she does read. Yeah - that's fair and balanced. More from NewsBusters, Conservatives4Palin.com, Pajamas Media and The Daily Caller ...

Palin on Good Morning America
Christian Heinze (who you should read all the time) with the scoop: Sarah Palin will spend a day with GMA's Robin Roberts, a media gift formerly reserved for Greta Van Susteren. Heinze reads into this: Recently, Palin's been stepping a little out of her Mark Levin/Sean Hannity box, and the Roberts interview is another sign she's thinking about trying to reach indies that have, so far, rejected her. Well, I don't think this is recent. Since the launch of Going Rogue, Palin has had a two-pronged ...

Sellers Pushes Consolidation
S.C. Rep. Bakari Sellers (D-Bamberg) is pushing the consolidation of South Carolina’s Prison and Probation agencies - a long-overdue, common sense structural reform that could save Palmetto state Taxpayers millions of dollars each year. He’s also proposing to consolidate the state’s Law Enforcement agencies - a move we’ve supported in the past which could produce additional taxpayer savings. Sellers pre-filed Legislation on Tuesday that would merge the S.C. De...

Hey Lefties Ignorance of the Law Doesnt Hold Up In Court
There’s been a lot of debate over the constitutionality of ObamaCare. Those on the left have been pretty arrogant about the whole subject - they’ve scoffed at anyone who questions the legality of the Legislation. James Taranto makes the case in The Wall Street Journal that ignorance is no defense. Our position was not that ObamaCare was clearly Unconstitutional or that it was likely to be struck down, merely that there were serious constitutional arguments against it that had...

Tonight! Conservative group to protest Berkeley celebrating (alleged) Wikileaks leaker
Alert the local TV news crews, because here's an early Christmas Present, Visuals Division: A conservative group -- with links to the Tea Party -- will be in Berkeley Tuesday night to Protest its City Council thinking of celebrating The Army private accused of leaking the Wikileaks documents. As Comrade Jones told us, Berkeley's Peace and Justice Commission (yes, yes, we know, "sooo Berkeley") recommended the city pass a resolution lauding Private Bradley Manning "for his courage in bringing ...

Welcome To The "No Labels" Party
Now that they've been drummed out of their party by the purity police tea partiers, moderate Republicans are creating their own party, the "No Labels" party, hoping to bring some Independents and disaffected Democrats with them. Good luck with that. Have you heard about the new national political organization called No Labels? It’s a ragtag collection of Journalists, pundits, and politicians who claim they support civility in campaigning and Bipartisanship in government. That sounds great,...

Report: Scientific Consensus of Global Warming Never Existed
Those who believe in “Global Warming” will often say that there is a world-wide scientific consensus on the theory of “global warming.”  THAT,  they will tell you, settles THAT. To THAT, we say HOGWASH.  First, let me remind readers of a blockbuster new report prepared by ClimateDepot.com and released last week, which now documents the statements of 1,000 scientists world-wide who believe the theory of “global warming caused by man’s energ...

Ben Chipman, only independent in Maine legislature, to be on IPR Radio tonight at 8 PM EST
Ben Chipman is a Green Party Activist in Maine and was elected to the State Legislature this year as an independent.  I, Ross Levin, along with Daniel Surman, will be interviewing him tonight on blogtalk radio.  Chipman has been a Green Party Activist for a long time, including being an aide to Maine’s only former Green State Legislator and a member of the Portland Charter Commission.

Right Wing Leftovers
For some reason, Michael Steele thinks he has a chance of getting re-elected as Chairman of the RNC. Good luck with that. Want to spend ten minutes listening to Mike Huckabee talk about playing bass guitar? Well, you are in luck. Anti-choice Activists have big plans for when Republicans take over State Legislatures. Focus on the Family is airing its interview with George W. Bush and it was surprisingly dull. Finally, the American Decency Association reports that "shoppers are appalled at th...

Defying Iran's regime from inside
Mohsen Sazegara was at the heart of Ayatollah Khomeini's regime from the moment the spiritual leader returned to Iran from exile. Throughout the 1970s Sazegara had been a Student Activist agitating for the overthrow of the Shah. In 1979 he became Khomeini's press attache. He also helped found the now feared Revolutionary Guard, originally established as a defence force against possible attack from Israel or the United States. As the Islamic state was established, dissenters were exec...

Judge Who Struck Down Health Care Law Recalls "20 Years Of Active Service To The Republican Party"
Earlier this week, U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson ruled that a key provision in the Affordable Care Act requiring individuals to own Health Insurance is Unconstitutional. Hudson's opinion, which has even conservative legal scholars questioning his logic, did not come as a surprise given the Bush-appointed judge's known "roots in Republican politics." In his 2007 memoir, Quest for Justice, Hudson recalled how his " 20 years of active service to the Republican party " helped him land a seat o...

Winning At The Local Level
Ben Smith and Byron Tau report on recent actions by gay equality Activist Tim Gill.  Josh Green, who profiled Gill a couple years back, weighs in: What was interesting about Gill in 2007 was that he was the rare major Donor content to remain anonymous; indeed, his political strategy of quietly jumping into races at the last moment with boatloads of money to defeat anti-gay politicians depended upon it. Gill's great success in the last few years was influencing the Makeup of Iow...

Anonymous turns attack drones against fax machines
From cyberspace to Office Space Pro-Wikileaks hacktivists have begun targeting the fax machines rather than the websites of firms who have withdrawn services from Wikileaks. As part of the new Leakflood mission, Activists have been encouraged to send faxes to Amazon, MasterCard, Moneybookers, PayPal, Visa and Tableau Software. The group published a list of fax numbers, encouraging members to send over extracts from leaked cables, letters from or images of Guy Fawkes - but no gross-out porn or...

Sarah Palin's Haiti trip: Fox exclusive & tour security sparks media resentment
Even though AFP points out that Sarah Palin' s  low profile visit to Haiti, "was tightly controlled for security reasons ," Mainstream Media  reporting  reflects  resentment for lack of access to Palin.
