The Telegraph & AP join together for another flim-flam.


It looks like the AP and The [Macon] Telegraph have come together again for another grand con. We would assume in this case the con-artists are AP’s Kimberly Dozier and The Telegraph’s Executive Editor Sherrie Marshall.

Again in their bigotry and desire to cover for the incompetent, dishonest scam artist in Congress and the Obama Administration, the con this time is on the blood lust, Obama’s personal “kill list” and his move towards one party rule.

There has been a lot of controversy about the Obama Administration which claims to be the sole authority to decide whose life to take. There is no distinction between United States Citizens and others. When and where to take a life is to be the sole discretion of Obama. There is to be no oversight, as the Obama Administration has demonstrated in the past, he is above the Constitutions and the Courts.

Obama is now in the process of surrounding himself with sycophants who will aid him without question. In the case of Lt.(j.g.) John Kerry who has demonstrated his willingness to turn his back on and sell out the people he served with as well as his country, he is now on record as being willing to help Obama ignore the Constitution and bypass Congress.

By the way this is with the approval of the Senate including Georgia’s two so-called Senators, Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson,  they both proudly voted to confirm Kerry, after all Kerry is a remember of that exclusive club the U.S. Senate and that has to come before the welfare of the country.

The reason we credit AP’s Dozier and The Telegraph’s Marshall with this con is because Dozier wrote the article which was a total of 1,399 words then Marshall and her sycophants trimmed it to a total of 201 words for print.

You can be assured Sherrie Marshall and crowd did not trim the article to cover up Dozier’s flim-flam in the fourteenth paragraph.
Dozier tells us that:
 “Drone strikes have expanded dramatically in the Obama administration. Fewer than 50 took place during the Bush administration, while more than 360 strikes have been launched under Obama, according to the website The Long War Journal, which tracks the operations. The strikes have been credited with killing more than 70 senior al-Qaida and Taliban commanders in Pakistan alone since they began in 2004.”
We do not know where Dozier got his numbers, a quick check of the web site “The Long War Journal” provides proof of his misrepresentation – or as The Telegraph would say his lies.

The chart at the web site http://www.longwarjournal.org/pakistan-strikes.php does not distinguish between “senior al-Qaida and Taliban Commanders” The chart titled “ Civilian v. Taliban/al-Qaida Deaths in US Airstrikes in Pakistan – 2004 – 2013” tells us that “Since 2006, there have been 2,492 leaders and operatives from Taliban, Al Qaeda, and allied extremist groups killed and 153 civilians killed, Data for 2004 and 2005 are not available at this time.”

If the two con-artist had been interested in providing honest news they could have pointed the reader to the 182 page report titled “Living Under Drones”, dated September 2012 by “International Human Rights and Conflict resolution Clinic” – Sanford Law School & “Global Justice Clinic” – NYU School of Law. The report tells us how Obama’s “Drones hover twenty-four hours a day over communities….” and “Their presence terrorizes men, women, and children, giving rise to anxiety and psychological trauma among civilian communities.”

They could have also pointed to The Bureau of Investigative Journalism web site where we find that there have been a “Total reported killed: 2,640-3,474" by Obama and his drones.

The site also tells us about “Obama terror drones” and how “CIA tactics in Pakistan include targeting rescuers and funerals” and howA bureau [of Investigative Journalism] investigation examines terror tactics used by CIA drones in Pakistan”  

We realize these numbers vary. These web sites point out actual documented figures are hard to prove and the Obama administration is more interested in deceiving the public than being honest.

Of course this is nothing new it is just something these two con-artists are not willing to point out. After all you cannot con people by telling them the truth.

Have a nice day.
