Corp Wolf P.A.C. Warlord-0666C01D, “Koch” Qaeda Bros Teahad & Billionaire Cabal ::
"Koch Brothers Exposed is a hard-hitting investigation of the 1% at its very worst. This full-length documentary film on Charles and David Koch—two of the world's richest and most powerful men—is the latest from acclaimed director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: the High Cost of Low Price, Outfoxed, Rethink Afghanistan). The billionaire brothers bankroll a vast network of organizations that work to undermine the interests of the 99% on issues ranging from Social Security to the environment to civil rights. This film uncovers the Kochs' corruption—and points the way to how Americans can reclaim their democracy." ::

“10 Shocking Facts on the Kochs…
<>
1.  Koch Industries, which the brothers own, is one of the top ten polluters in the United States - which perhaps explains why the Kochs have given $60 million to climate denial groups between 1997 and 2010.
<>
2.  The Kochs are the oil and gas industry's biggest donors to the congressional committee with oversight of the hazardous Keystone XL oil pipeline. They and their employees gave more than $300,000 to members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee in 2010 alone.
<>
3.  From 1998-2008, Koch-controlled foundations gave more than $196 million to organizations that favor polices that would financially enrich the two brothers. In addition, Koch Industries spent $50 million on lobbying and some $8 million in PAC contributions.
<>
4.  The Koch fortune has its origins in engineering contracts with Joseph Stalin's Soviet Union.
<>
5.  The Kochs are suing to take over the Cato Institute, which has accused the Kochs of attempting to destroy the group's identity as an independent, libertarian think and align it more closely with a partisan agenda.
<>
6.  A Huffington Post source who was at a three-day retreat of conservative billionaires said the Koch brothers pledged to donate $60 million to defeat President Obama in 2012 and produce pledges of $40 million more from others at the retreat.
<>
7.  Since 2000, the Kochs have collected almost $100 million in government contracts, mostly from the Department of Defense.
<>
8.  Koch Industries has an annual production capacity of 2.2 billion pounds of the carcinogen formaldehyde. The company has worked to keep it from being classified as a carcinogen even though David Koch is a prostate cancer survivor.
<>
9.  The Koch brothers' combined fortune of roughly $50 billion is exceeded only by that of Bill Gates in the United States.
<>
10.  The Senate Select Committee on Indian Affairs accused Koch Oil of scheming to steal $31 million of crude oil from Native Americans. Although the company claimed it was accidental, a former executive in this operation said Charles Koch had known about it and had responded to the overages by saying, 'I want my fair share, and that's all of it.'"

"in 1886 that a Supreme Court decision (Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Company) ostensibly led to corporate personhood and free speech rights, thereby guaranteeing protections under the 1st and 14th amendments." ::
“Chief Justice Morrison Waite wrote, ‘We avoided meeting the Constitutional question in the decision.’” ::
“Yet, when writing up the case summary - that has no legal status-the Court reporter, a former railroad president named J.C. Bancroft Davis, declared: ‘The defendant Corporations are persons within the intent of the clause in section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, which forbids a state to deny any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.’” ::
“But the Court had made no such legal determination.” ::
“It was the clerk’s opinion and misrepresentation of the case in the headnote upon which current claims of corporate personhood and free speech entitlements now rests."

U.S. Judicial Br.-Supreme Court-0666A05CU, Staging Chief Justice Louis Powell, POTUS 37 Richard Nixon (Republican – 1969-74), U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Corporate Takeover of Government by Judicial Activism ::
"Lewis Powell ...corporate lawyer and member of the boards of 11 corporations, wrote a memo to his friend Eugene Sydnor, Jr., the Director of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. ...dated August 23, 1971, two months prior to Powell’s nomination by President Nixon to the U.S. Supreme Court." ::
"Powell did embrace expansion of corporate privilege and wrote the majority opinion in First National Bank of Boston v. Bellotti, a 1978 decision that effectively invented a First Amendment “right” for corporations to influence ballot questions." ::
"The memo influenced or inspired the creation of the Heritage Foundation, the Manhattan Institute, the Cato Institute, Citizens for a Sound Economy, Accuracy in Academe, and other powerful organizations.
Their long-term focus began paying off handsomely in the 1980s, in coordination with the Reagan Admin’s ‘hands-off business’ philosophy."

"The Powell Memo (also known as the Powell Manifesto) The Powell Memo was first published August 23, 1971"

POTUS Obama Is Quiet On T.P.P.; U.S. is pushing the toughest regulations::
“If instituted, the TPP’s [Intellectual Property] regime would trampled over individual rights and free expression, as well as ride roughshod over the intellectual and creative commons.  If you read, write, publish, think, listen, dance, sing or invent; if you farm or consume food; if you’re ill now or might be one day be ill, the TPP has you in its crosshairs.“

>_^_ Methane Release from Meteor Impact on Ocean Floor ::
The Permian Mass Extinction; 95% of all life died; In 1990's scientists found the Siberian flood basalt eruption that proved the cause of the event;
(An effect of volcanic eruption in 1783-1784 was frigged temperatures & no summer);
When earth temps raise 4-5 degrees Celsius (7-8 degrees Fahrenheit) most species die; The Dating System for Permian Mass Extinction is the 23,000 year cycle of earth orbit adjustment;
An 8,000 to 10,000 year mass extinction is very abrupt;  It indicates that a huge meteor strike caused the extinction; An effect of the hit is… the Permian Crater filled with lava from the Earth’s Crust Rebound (filling in the depression); Proof in Antarctica is the confirmation of deformed shattered “shock quartz grains” with rare extra-terrestrial “iridium” from the meteor;
Whitmore’s Greenland Expedition;
Stages of the Permian extinction, a gradual event, spanned 80k years of land, sea, then more land extinctions;
Dickens: Release of Methane Hydrate Reservoirs at the edge of continental margins contained and released carbon 12; Warming the water releases methane and carbon 12 from once living organisms; That resulted in a 4 to 5 degrees Celsius warming (7-8 degrees Fahrenheit);
2 Permian Era Killers 250 million years ago:
(Huge Meteor Strike depressing earth’s crust followed by a rebound…)
(1) 1st a killer flood basalt eruption heating earth 4-5 degrees Celsius, then
(2) Ocean water heated up releasing the (Global Warming Gas) Methane
that heated earth up an additional 4-5 degrees Celsius;

Environment, A Global Disaster-2666A2, Current Ocean Extinction Event; Ocean Acidification; Carbonic Acid ::
Ocean plants make 70% of the oxygen (O2) we breath; Humans are producing 10 billion metric tons of Fossil Fuel per year; 90% of CO2 production is from fossil fuel use, and 10% is from Deforestation; 25% of CO2 enters the Oceans causing chemical changes; CO2 stays near the Ocean Surface; Calcium Carbonate is used by Sea Creatures with hard parts; As Oceans become more acetic, organisms find it harder to extract and crystallize calcium into the shell or skeleton; The inability of organisms to accumulate calcium for shell or bone leads to food-web collapse.

“small amount in your lungs can kill you.”
Bolenbaugh worked for Enbridge clean-up crew and he demonstrates the clean up hoax. Enbridge Canadian Pipeline Corp covered up creek spilled Tar Sands Oil with tarps, sand, rock and grass matting and didn’t clean the bottom of the sterile Kalamazoo River ::

MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET – ENBRIDGE {min 21:50}
CHEMICAL COMPOSITION of HEAVY PETROLEUM CRUDE:
Methane, Ethane, Propane, Iso-Butane, n-Butane, Hexane, N-Pentane, Iso-Pentane, Heptane, Octane, Nonane, Decane, NeoHexane, Benzene, Toluene, Methylcyclohexane, Hydrogen sulfide, Ethylbenzene, Xylenes ::
WARNING:
Acute Effects: Ingestation
Ingestation may result in nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and central nervous system, and depression.  Aspiration of liquid into the lungs must be avoided as even small quantities in the lungs can produce chemical pneumonitis, pulmonary edema/hemorrhage and even death.
Inhalation:
Prolonged or excessive exposure may cause irritation to the nose, throat, lungs and respiratory tract which may lead to headache, nausea, drowsiness, fatigue pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, CNS depression, coma and respiratory arrest.
Chronic Health Effects from Overexposures:
Skin and eye irritation. May affect the respiratory and central nervous systems.  {min 23:26}

“This is what will happen to BC (British Columbia) and BC's coast if we the people of BC and the rest of Canada allow Enbridge to build their pipeline.
>
Another thing to note is that the spills are toxic and poisonous. If they happen near residential areas as they did in Michigan, they can make people very sick, cause seizures, and even cause comas or death. Very dangerous and Enbridge does not want to spend the millions cleaning it up when they can just hide it in the woods under rock and grass.
>
When a spill occurs in our treacherous waters it will flow all down the coast of BC destroying fishing and tourism. People will lose their jobs, careers, livelihood, and BC which relies a lot on tourism and fishing will suffer as the people will.” ~ End Quote - from N.B. below

Health Care Insurance Open Enrollment for private health coverage from 10-01-13 to 03-31-14 – 6 Months

>_^_ The U.S. 50 State ACA - Affordable (Private Health Insurance Access) Care Act 2010/ObamaCare Marketplace is open for enrollment to those who have no health care benefit at work or no work at present.   Health Care insurance is offered by participating “private” health insurance providers, with a range of plans, prices and deductable options available from 10-01-13 to 03-31-14 (a six month window). ::
<>
[26 some Redneck Koch-Tea Governed &/or Legislature States* have “rejected” the “3 year free Medicare Expansion” benefit for their state’s neediest residents.  Also deflected were thousands of jobs, dozens of billions of health care income dollars and state income tax windfalls.  (After 3 years, states are required to pick up just 10% of the Medicare Expansion cost to cover the neediest residents. *AL, *AK, *FL, *GA, *ID, *IN, *KS, *LA, *ME, *MI (Delayed to 04-01-14), *MS, *MO, *MT, *NE, *NH, *NC, *OH, *OK, *PA, *SC, *SD, *TN, *TX, *UT, *VA, *WI, & *WY )]
<>
[NOTE 1:  The ACA/ObamaCare Website is handling traffic from 36 states and 5 territories that don’t have or couldn’t implement State Exchanges, or just rejected State Exchanges and spurned the Medicare Extension Coverage for their most underserved residents.  The 14 (much smaller) Individual State Health Insurance Exchanges are said to be working well.  (96% of all Website Roll Outs, exceeding $10 million to implement, failed and had to be fixed over a period of months.)
<>
The “unfunded” and “unbudgeted” Medicare D program rolled out by the George W. Bush Administration in 2006, (that cost taxpayers far “more” than the Affordable [Private Health Insurance Access &] Care Act), failed miserably at its initiation too.  But unlike now, Democrats joined with Republicans in calling for fixing those glitches and kerfuffle’s in Medicare D, accepting the settled “uncontested” law.  President Obama put “both” Medicare D & ObamaCare “in the budget” of the United States Government. 
Congress needs to fund them both by taxing “Pay-To-Play Sacred Cows” like Multinational “Corporate Welfare” Queen Recipients and the Forbes 400 Kings.  Those interests have mutually used our collective commons resources, our infrastructure, and bought many of our politicians who introduced “Boutique Legislation” that continue to exploit “our tax code” so they can become richer …since 1981 as Ronald Reagan reignited Class Warfare, a dynamic income shift best characterized as “Trickle-Up,” not “Trickle-Down” Economics.  From then to now, lobbyists numbers went from just 300 to 30,000+.]
[Note 2:  Thank the gay English code-cracking mathematician and World War II Hero, Alan Turing, for ciphering early “computer code” which produced a communication venue which circumvents Corp’s and Oligarch’s “Ad Propaganda Media” (even if “they do monitor” …lol).  And though Turing committed suicide rather than subject himself of British court mandated injections or prison, computer communication of truth means we “don’t” have to repeat what Fascism did to his generation. 
<>
The 1% has corrupted paperless track-free electronic voting machines though.  Wealthy U.S. Republicans own the Corp’s that manufacture them; and electronic voting machines are easily hacked by a high-school computer nerds and more sophisticated programmers alike.  Returning to “physical evidence” producing paper ballots is a necessity …in order to avoid the austerity of the GO Pee “Golden Shower” on the entire social safety net, and prevent tag-along Blue-Dog Corporate Dems from rusting the fire plug reg’s on Wall Street to keep up w/the Joneses and stay in a country club.]

Psychology-0666FU02B, Trolls, They Effect Threads & Reasoning ::
"...psychological theory of motivated reasoning ...The emotions come faster than the “rational” thoughts—and also shape the retrieval of those thoughts from memory. Therefore, if reading insults activates one’s emotions, the 'thinking' process may be more likely to be defensive in nature, and focused on preserving one’s identity and preexisting beliefs."

Election 2014-101A, Precinct Committeemen; How Party Politics Works ::
"To understand why this office is so powerful, you must understand the Seven Steps of government.
1.)  To change things, you have to change the law...
2.)  To change the laws, you have to change the people who make them.
3.)  To be elected, your candidate must be on the ballot...
4.)  To get on the ballot in a general election, you have to be nominated for an office in a Party Primary Election or Convention...
5.)  Candidates endorsed by the Party usually win the Primary Election...
6.)  Primary endorsements are often made by the Party's "County Committee" (or Township Committee, etc.), which is elected by the Precinct Committeemen of the Party....
7.)  It's easy to be elected a Precinct Committeeman...
........a.) To change things, we must change the laws.
........b.) To change the laws, we must change the people who make them.
........c.) To get elected, your candidate must be on the ballot.
........d.) To get on the November ballot you must win the Primary.
........e.) To win the Primary, you must get the support of people who make endorsements in the Primary, who reliably vote in the Primary, and who get out the vote of others in the Primary. Those people are the Precinct Committeemen." ::
"Precinct Committeeman is the most powerful office in the world because Precinct Committeemen determine who gets the chance to be elected to office at every level of government. Remember, if your candidate is not on the ballot, he will not be elected."
**"Duties of the Precinct Committeeman
...legally charged with getting out the vote on election day. ...ring the doorbell of every household in the precinct ... find out the Party and other political views of every voter. (...canvassing.) ...each election, ...personally deliver campaign literature (such as a marked sample ballot) to every voter who is expected to vote for your Party."
**”Powers of the Precinct Committeeman
....1.) Friendly access to neighbors....
....2.) Respect from elected officials....
....3.) Launching pad for other offices....
....4.) Direct influence over Party Platform, policies, and selection of candidates..."
