  1. Naked (american) emperor tries to ban child [strike-thru] reporter from his court

    Hi William,
    greatly appreciate your work. I'm sure you are aware of this story, am just thinking that the "emperor" angle described in the subject has not been exposed yet in a visual way even the average main street rube can grasp ;-)

    A lot of aware partecipants in the ZH forum (and I'm sure elsewhere, too) are wondering how it is possible that the american citizen don't protest or revolt against the treatment the political-financial-industrial complex is dealing them. To me it is apparent that Obama is running some kind of "russian scam" (complete version here) on the american people.

    At the time this document accusing Obama of using NLP to "wrap in" his voters appeared on the web, Obama was still pretty much "everybody's" darling, at least of the part of population that was hoping for some sort of "change", so the accusations contained in the text were buried under a choir of protests, so to speak.

    I reckon that by now the facts (US Main Road getting raped and apparently still loving it!!?!?) would actually indicate that there might have been something to the story.

    Cheers,
    g
