You have the criminalization of the reporter at Fox News, and the AP dragnet, and you have IRS that clearly showed some criminal behavior that at least we know was back at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. And that pattern of deception when this broke made it almost impossible for those of us who know this program, worked on this program, to make sure there were no laws broken on this program, it made it very, very difficult to explain the difference to the American people.” Read full article &gt;&gt;         ...&lt;/p&gt;</description>

            <title>White House Guidelines: Don't Arm Teachers</title>
            <link>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DistrictDossier/~3/QnFOZFJSPiE/white_house_guidelines_dont_ar.html</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="Gray"&gt;Source: blogs.edweek.org --- Wednesday, June 19, 2013&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday, the Obama administration released the comprehensive emergency guidelines for school districts it had first promised after the school shootings in Newtown, Conn. this winter. The guidelines were written jointly by the U.S. departments of Education, Homeland Security, Justice, and Health and Human Services, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and contain lessons and suggestions from each. They deal with prevention, protection, mitigation, response, and recovery from technological, human-caused, natural, and biological threats. The document is quite thorough, touching on everything from school design and storm shelters to planning emergency drills to balancing privacy and safety. It's important to note that this is explicitly a guide, not a new set of federal requirements. It reads as a compilation of the lessons and best practices that have been gleaned from agencies and schools that have had to cope with various types of emergencies in the past. Though the report's recommendations about storm cellars and buildings will seem particularly timely after the tornadoes in Oklahoma this spring, the active shooter section that was developed in response to Newtown is particularly resonant and in-depth. That section addresses head on the debate that raged this spring about whether school employees should be armed, as the National Rifle Association suggested this winter: This guide say ...&lt;/p&gt;</description>

This is the latest in a series of concrete steps the President has made to advance his Prague agenda and the long-term goal of achieving the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons. Following the release of the 2010 Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) and ratification of the New START Treaty, the President directed the Department of Defense (DOD), the Department of State, Department of Energy, and the intelligence community, to conduct a detailed analysis of U.S. nuclear deterrence requirements and policy in order to ensure U.S. nuclear posture and plans are aligned to address today’s security environment. This review was based on the principle that a robust assessment of today’s security environment and resulting Presidential guidance must drive nuclear employment planning, force structure, and posture decisions. The President’s new guidance: · affirms that the United States will maintain a credible deterrent, capable of convincing any potential adversary that the adverse consequences of attacking the United States or our allies and partners far outweigh any potential benefit they may seek to gain through an attack. · directs DOD to  ...&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Apparently not taking their own advice and actually reading the Bible, in their statement, they quote the Bible selectively to condemn Obama for the “goal of normalizing homosexuality in America” and warned that this goal would not go unpunished. They stated “President Barack Hussein Obama and Vice President Joe Biden spent last Thursday celebrating ‘gay pride’ at a &lt;b&gt;white&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; ceremony – a ceremony that included two young twin girls who are being ‘parented’ by two lesbians.” They went on to say “In a special video on LGBT Gay Pride Month, Obama praised ‘gay’ leaders who had ‘bent the arc of the moral universe towards justice.’ That’s a clever way of saying they have turned morality upside down and violated God’s moral laws in pushing for the normalization of homosexual sex acts. . .Obama, who claims to be a Christian, might want to read Romans 1:18-31.” Actually, they probably could have just said Romans 1:27-31 which reads: And lyke wyse also the men lefte the naturall vse of the woma and bret in their lustes one on another. And man with man wrought filthynes and receaved in them selves the rewarde of their erroure as it was accordinge.

            <title>White House threatens to veto U.S. Farm Bill over food stamp cuts</title>

            <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="Gray"&gt;Source: www.agcanada.com --- Tuesday, June 18, 2013&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The &lt;b&gt;white&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; has threatened to veto a five-year farm bill on Thursday because of “unacceptable deep cuts” in food stamps for the poor that could increase hunger across America. In a statement on the eve of debate in the &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; of Representatives, the Obama administration said the bill should cut crop subsidy rates and crop insurance subsidies rather than public nutrition. Food stamps are the major dispute in the farm bill. The &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; would cut food stamps by US$20 billion over 10 years, the deepest cuts in a generation. Some two million people would lose benefits under the &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; proposal. “The bill makes unacceptable deep cuts in (food stamps), which could increase hunger among millions of Americans who are struggling to make ends meet, including families with children and senior citizens,” said the &lt;b&gt;white&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt;. It said there are better ways to reduce the deficit, including by reducing crop insurance subsidies. Spending on the taxpayer-supported crop insurance program would rise by 10 per cent under the farm bill. The &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; bill also would boost so-called target prices for crop subsidies by 45 per cent. The &lt;b&gt;house&lt;/b&gt; could begin debate on the farm bill as soon as Wednesday. More than 200 amendments have been proposed. Some would cut much deeper into the program. Three dozen Democrats sponsored an amendment to eliminate the food stamp cuts and to cut two new crop subsidies by $20 billion (all figures US$). Some 47.7 million Americans ...&lt;/p&gt;</description>
