UPDATEx6: For Lawsuit Purposes

Anybody know who Righthaven is?

Well, study up. The secret is out. An excerpt:

“As many defendants in Righthaven actions have argued, Righthaven does not truly own the copyrights it sues over,” Marc John Randazza, one of the attorneys for the Media Bloggers Association, said Friday in a blog post titled in part “Does the House of Cards Collapse?”

He said Righthaven’s lawsuits seem to run afoul of case law.

Read the whole thing.

UPDATE: Righthaven disses the Court.

UPDATEx2: A federal judge ruled Monday that publishing an entire article is fair use. This is the latest blow against newspaper copyright troll Righthaven.

UPDATEx3: Righthaven is not giving up.

UPDATEx4: RH’s attorney gives a lame excuse.

UPDATE x5: Appareently, the judge fined Righthaven $5,000 for misleading the court about their lawsuits. And, wait for it, Righthaven is going to appeal the fine. HAR!

UPDATE x6: Judge scolds Righthaven lawyer, adds another $32,000 judgment
Money talks, BS walks. Add more zeros, Your Honor.

POTUS Wants Congress Out of His Business

Funny, that.
Imagine, the Constitution keeps getting in his way.

One rider – Section 2262 — de-funds certain White House adviser positions – or “czars.” The president in his signing statement declares that he will not abide by it.

Is this Constitutional, or not? Sounds to me that our POTUS loves (too much) to show his temper with the people and our allies, but not our enemies (his friends?). He throws us into deep, deep debt, does not end the wars he has been against and starts a third.

Don’t know about anyone else, but this elected individual should never have been put into this job as POTUS. He keeps contradicting himself.

Come on 2012.

An aside but perhaps very telling.

Warring Against the Classes

Or, just one class. Trouble is, the POTUS has just one class in mind. And he wants automatic tax hikes when they (he) overspends.

His solution? Check this out –

A “debt failsafe trigger,” Obama’s scheme would automatically raise taxes if politicians spend too much. According to the talking points distributed by the White House, the automatic tax increase would take effect “if, by 2014, the projected ratio of debt-to-GDP is not stabilized and declining toward the end of the decade.”

Bullied By the IRS

By ABC News via TaxProf Blog.

A very important video to watch on that site above..

Could this happen to any one of us? Answer that after watching the video.

Incompetence From the Top Down

April Fools has been over for a bit.

So why would the White House think we would find their tacit admission that their 2012 budget plan wasn’t serious – funny?

This is beyond infuriating. This is unconscionable, ill-conceived, unwarranted and – to me – treasonous to the extreme since it detrimentally affects every – single – living (and yet to be) American in this country.

Meet the Proposed Head of the ATF

Andrew Traver, from Chicago. Feel any safer? I don’t. Second time the POTUS has nominated him.

Michelle Malkin says it best:

Traver’s pending nomination hearing comes as Republican watchdogs Sen. Charles Grassley and Rep. Darrell Issa turn up the heat on the Obama administration’s stonewallers over Project Gunrunner. The State Department, Justice Department and ATF have failed to produce documents in a timely manner on a bloody initiative that has been tied to the deaths of at least two American law enforcement officials. Traver would be another go-along, get-along Chicago cog in the machine. Americans need someone who’ll strip the whitewash, not second-coat it.

Oh, and by the way, how about that war on drugs? Is it getting any better? Or worse? Who is better funded and capable?
Think it might be their toys?

And how about a new Secretary of State? Will it be Cass Sunstein’s wife? Color me unimpressed and a bit more concerned for our U.S. Constitution. Correction: a LOT more concerned.

Incorrect Mr. Schumer

Declining support for the Tea Party? Sorry there, Chuckles. You have it wrong.
Maybe from your point of view (which is, myopic, to be kind).

More of us voters will vote against you, I feel sure, because of your willingness to spend us into oblivion.

We are watching. And we do not like what we are seeing.

Remember in November 2012.

GM Bailout Cost Us $B

But, not according to the head bailout artist, Barack Obama.

Let’s see now: the March 16 Congressional Oversight report, estimates taxpayers will be out of $25 billion, during its bankruptcy, GM got a $45 billion tax break and a February piece on AutoBlog also confirms that GM will also get a $14 billion dollar domestic tax break.

That adds up to $84B.

Now I have a question for Congress: How much spending are you cutting from here on out, hhhmmm ?????

Maybe.

Another Activist Judge:Take Medicare or lose Social Security

This should really upset everybody.

Apparently, Judge Rosemary Collyer has ruled that Americans have a legal obligation to accept subpar government health benefits.

Yeah, how about that.

…[T]he idea of patient choice offends many in government, and in 1993 the Clinton Administration promulgated so-called POMS (Program Operations Manual System) rules that say seniors who withdraw from Medicare Part A (which covers hospital and outpatient services) must forfeit their Social Security benefits.

Come on, Congress. Repeal Obamacare.

Remake Entire Global Economy

As driven/dreamed/preferred by a multi-billionaire, George Soros.

Should we be concerned?

On April 8, a group he’s funded with $50 million is holding a major economic conference and Soros’s goal for such an event is to “establish new international rules” and “reform the currency system.” It’s all according to a plan laid out in a Nov. 4, 2009, Soros op-ed calling for “a grand bargain that rearranges the entire financial order.”

Yeah. I’d say so. Pay attention.
