Ron Paul Wins 2011 Values Voter Summit Straw Poll Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com October 8, 2011 Ron Paul has won another straw poll, indicating he is the choice for many if not most voting Republicans. Demonstrating that the influence of establishment Republicans remains strong in the party, Herman Cain came in a distant second. Cain recently made the news when he said unemployment is basically the fault of the individual and not transnational corporations that have sent most of the decent jobs to slave labor gulags in China and Asia. Cain is the former boss of the Kansas City Federal Reserve. Here is the poll breakdown: Ron Paul – 36.9% (732) Herman Cain – 22.5% (447) Rick Santorum – 16.3% (323) Rick Perry – 8.4% (167) Michele Bachmann – 7.9% (157) Mitt Romney – 4.4% (88) Newt Gingrich – 2.7% (54) Undecided – 0.7% (13) Jon Huntsman – 0.1% (2) Note that the current darling of the global elite, Mitt Romney, comes in at a dismal 4.4%. Even the wash-out and faux Tea Party cowboy Rick Perry does better than Mitt.

Ron Paul warns journalists: You could be next on Obama’s ‘kill list’ By Vishal Ganesan -- The Daily Caller Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul warned journalists that they could be placed on a “kill list” should the government deem them a threat to national security. The Associated Press reported that the Texas congressman encouraged journalists and citizens alike to condemn the President’s actions, lest they find themselves placed on the list for their own views. “Can you imagine being put on a list because you’re a threat?” an exasperated Paul asked. “What’s going to happen when they come to the media? What if the media becomes a threat? This is the way this works. It’s incrementalism.” His statements come in the aftermath of the assassination of Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen killed by a CIA drone in Yemen last month. Decisions about whom to place on the “kill list” are reportedly made by secret panel of federal government officials whose deliberations are withheld from public view. “There is no public record of the operations or decisions of the panel, which is a subset of the White House’s National Security Council, several current and former officials said,” Reuters reported Thursday. ”Neither is there any law establishing its existence or setting out the rules by which it is supposed to operate.” The role of the president in the process is unclear, although he is informed of the panel’s decisions. Rep. Paul is not the only critic of the government’s actions. In a statement last week, ACLU legal director Jameel Jaffer condemned the administration for what he called “a program under which American citizens far from any battlefield can be executed by their own government without judicial process, and on the basis of standards and evidence that are kept secret not just from the public but from the courts.” “It is a mistake to invest the President — any President — with the unreviewable power to kill any American whom he deems to present a threat to the country,” Jaffer concluded. Although the Obama administration has refused to release evidence that definitely links al-Awlaki to specific acts of terrorism, it has claimed he was behind two failed terror attempts on American soil. In a statement made after al-Awlaki’s death, President Obama said it represented a “significant milestone in the broader effort to defeat al Qaida and its affiliates.”
Romney Picks Notorious Neocon as Lead Foreign Policy Adviser Kurt Nimmo Infowars.com October 8, 2011 GOP front-runner Mitt Romney – who has promised us another century of mass murder and crimes against humanity – has picked a neocon as his new foreign policy adviser. Walid Phares is a Lebanese terrorism “expert” who often makes the rounds to denounce enemies of the empire (usually Iran and Syria) and is featured as a speaker by Benador Associates, a public relations outfit promoting the worst of the worst in the neocon constellation. Phares is also connected to David Horowitz, the former Marxist magazine publisher who has taken money from CIA operative Richard Mellon Scaife. Horowitz, who admits he is a traitor to the United States, runs an extreme neocon and ferociously anti-Muslim website called FrontPage and is often referred to as one of America’s most dangerous hatemongers by his ideological enemies over on the so-called left. Phares is a “contributing expert” along with fellow neocons Frank Gaffney and Meyrav Wurmser at the rabidly pro-Israel Ariel Center for Policy Research. In the mid-1980s he was the Washington lobbyist for the Lebanese Phalange party. It was founded in the 1930s by Pierre Gemayel and inspired by the Nazi Youth Movement in Hitler’s Germany. In 1982, the Phalange cooperated with Israel in its invasion of Lebanon and participated in the Sabra and Shatila massacre of Palestinians that same year. Israel’s invasion resulted in 19,085 deaths and 31,915 wounded, overwhelmingly civilians. By placing Phares in his campaign, Romney has signaled that he is exactly the same as George W. Bush – a sock puppet for neocons who are determined to keep the war against Islam on track despite the overwhelming desire of the American people to put an end to the decade-long multiple front war in the Middle East and South Asia.
