Rivero's Ripostes

Selected comments from Mike Rivero of whatreallyhappened.com

There's a whole lot more there if you care to give a click, readers.

"Obliterate"

"Obama built up his insurmountable lead over Clinton because he was the only candidate for the No More Wars For The Jews Party. Clinton had been able to build a tiny bit of momentum after Pennsylvania. Why then did she court disaster by reminding the voters of North Carolina and Indiana that she was the candidate for the More Wars For The Jews Party by raising the issue of the obliteration of Iran? Suddenly, Americans were reminded of why Obama built up his big lead."

"Israel's supporters may have oodles of money with which to reshape American politics, but in the end, they only really have 2% of the votes. And even the best vote fraud cannot overcome that fact."

"F.B.I. Says the Military Had Bogus Computer Gear"

"The F.B.I. is still not certain whether the ring's actions were for profit or part of a state-sponsored intelligence effort. The potential threat, according to the F.B.I. agents who gave a briefing at the Office of Management and Budget on Jan. 11, includes the remote jamming of supposedly secure computer networks and gaining access to supposedly highly secure systems. Contents of the briefing were contained in a PowerPoint presentation leaked to a Web site, Above Top Secret."

"...part of a state-sponsored intelligence effort..."

Now who would do a thing like that to the United States?

"Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information." -- US official quoted in Carl Cameron's Fox News report on the Israeli spy ring and its connections to 9-11."

"Obama Now Takes The Lead in Superdelegates Too"

"ABC News' Karen Travers Reports: For the first time this campaign season, Barack Obama has surpassed Hillary Clinton's support among superdelegates, according to the ABC News delegate estimate.

Sen. Obama, D-Ill., picked up two superdelegates this morning giving him a new metric to tout in addition to his current commanding leads in pledged delegates, popular votes, states won, and money raised."

"Yet Hillary still acts like she knows something may happen to give her the nomination."

"Clinton says insurgency is failing"

"As 55 people died in Iraq on Saturday, the holiest day on the Shiite Muslim religious calendar, Sen. Hillary Clinton said that much of Iraq was "functioning quite well" and that the rash of suicide attacks was a sign that the insurgency was failing."

"Mission Accomplished"

"Final Throes"

"Insurgency failing..."

Yeah, MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!!!!!

"U.S. deploys more than 43,000 unfit for combat"

"More than 43,000 U.S. troops listed as medically unfit for combat in the weeks before their scheduled deployment to Iraq or Afghanistan since 2003 were sent anyway, Pentagon records show."

"Looking at this data, there's one, almost inescapable conclusion; with these continuing "wars without end "this administration (and a couple of presidential candidates) appear to love having continue, it's only a matter of time before a draft is reinstated in the US.

The legislation has been lying dormant, in committee, until congress feels it's the right time.


And don't be so certain that their concept of "the right time" won't be right in the middle of an election year; after all, it appears that this administration is gearing up for some kind of an attack on Iran right in the middle of an election year.

"'Deafening' silence on analyst story"

"Even with countless media outlets available these days, a Sunday New York Times cover story could always be counted on to send a jolt through the television news cycle.

But apparently that's no longer the case. Indeed, reporter David Barstow's 7,600-word investigation of the Pentagon's military analyst program -- whereby ex-military talking heads, often with direct ties to contractors, parroted Defense Department talking points on the air -- has been noticeably absent from television airwaves since the story broke on April 20."

"But Miley Cyrus' Vanity Fair pictures got OODLES of coverage!"
