Will Obama Open Up All U.S. Travel to Cuba?..

Few things engender hypocrisy more broadly than U.S. policy on Cuba. It's embarrassingly inconsistent for Washington to maintain a trade embargo against Havana and to bar U.S. citizens from traveling to Cuba when the U.S. gleefully does business with regimes like China, whose human-rights violations are more egregious than Cuba's. At the same time, it's curious at best that embargo foes like California Representative Barbara Lee, who led a congressional delegation to Havana last week that met with President Raúl Castro and his brother Fidel, rarely mention Cuba's jailed dissidents but will, as Lee has, blast China for "repression against the Tibetan people."...Link

Barack Obama is "wavering"......

President Barack Obama is "wavering" on whether to fully release details of the Bush administration's approved torture techniques, according to a report in Wednesday's Wall Street Journal based on statements by "people familiar with the discussions." "Among the details in the still-classified memos is approval for a technique in which a prisoner's head could be struck against a wall as long as the head was being held and the force of the blow was controlled by the interrogator, according to people familiar with the memos," the paper reported...link

A hard pill to swallow..............

No one likes to hear what Gerald Celente and Peter Schiff have to say, but there is no denying that they have been right when others were all wrong. They are not pretending that they know the future, just giving logical predictions. Now...what they say may turn out to be a little extreme, but is it bad to be prepared for the worst. All these economist are telling you...it's all right...go spend your money...nothing bad can happen, this is the United States....Yah, we shouldn't listen to those who are advocating saving your money, getting out of debt and being concerned that our government hates saving and thinks the more debt we have the stronger our economy will be.

Obama and habeas corpus -- then and now....

It was once the case under the Bush administration that the U.S. would abduct people from around the world, accuse them of being Terrorists, ship them to Guantanamo, and then keep them there for as long as we wanted without offering them any real due process to contest the accusations against them. That due-process-denying framework was legalized by the Military Commissions Act of 2006. Many Democrats -- including Barack Obama -- claimed they were vehemently opposed to this denial of due process for detainees, and on June 12, 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court, in the case of Boumediene v. Bush, ruled that the denial of habeas corpus rights to Guantanamo detainees was unconstitutional and that all Guantanamo detainees have the right to a full hearing in which they can contest the accusations against them...Link

On the campaign trail while defending his support of the "Patriot" Act, Obama said,

"...most of the problems that we have had in civil liberties were not done though the Patriot Act, they were done through executive order by George W. Bush. And that's why the first thing I will do when I am President is call in my Attorney General and have he or she [sic] review every executive order to determine which of those have undermined civil liberties, which are unconstitutional, and I will reverse them with the stroke of a pen... That is actually how the worst abuses have occurred. That's what happened with Guantanamo, that's what happened with the warrantless wiretaps, that's what's happened with the suspension of habeas corpus, that's what's happened in terms of the rounding up of Americans of Muslim extraction. Those weren't done through the Patriot Act, those were all done separately."
