In case you did not hear, A&E temporarily suspended reality TV star Phil Robertson. Luckily, the Republic survived the crisis. Miley Cyrus twerked on national television, but somehow fatalities were kept to a minimum. A royal baby was born to William and Kate, but the miraculous birth somehow did not bring about world peace or fix the stagnating global economy. While the morally bankrupt mainstream media was pushing stories like these, you may have missed a few real stories in 2013.
1. GITMO hunger strike
Guantanamo Bay is still open for business despite the empty promises
that President Obama made regarding closing it. The under-reported hunger
strike by many of its inmates was a sign that the federal government is good at
creating and nurturing potential blowback. Unless and until the inmates at
Gitmo are all charged and given trials, the island prison is more concentration
camp than anything else. What ever happened to innocent until proven guilty? If
the individuals being held at Gitmo are terrorists, then it should not be
difficult to convict them of those crimes.
2. Unrest
in Libya
While
the Benghazi controversy was well
covered in 2013, the bigger picture in Libya
was not. President Obama's unconstitutional "kinetic military action"
in the North African country has destabilized it and has created what looks
like a failed state. Qaddafi may be gone, but when the dust settles, Jihadists
may very well wind up ruling in Libya.
3. Painkiller addiction epidemic
While the pointless and totalitarian War on Drugs continues to rage and more nonviolent offenders are locked up by the Prison Industrial Complex as a result, it turns out that the real drug problem involves the legal prescription painkillers that big Pharma pushes.
By ignoring this story, the mainstream media is not making it go away. Radiation levels in Japan are dangerously high even if the MSM pretends this is not the case. Why is it that a media which loves to fearmonger about things in the average home that might threaten to kill your family ignores something that actually could pose a threat?
5. Global Warming stopped 16 years ago
Without the bogus bogeyman of Global Warming, environmentalists might actually have to focus on actual environmental issues. What fun would that be? Apparently, ensuring that air, water, and soil are not contaminated cannot give the federal government totalitarian control over the nation like Global Warming potentially can. Plus, with his agenda crumbling, the pro-Obama media needs something to scare the disenchanted electorate back into supporting the President.
Why does the media ignore American Indians? It seems that neither the left wing nor right wing MSM wish to attack or defend this segment of the American population. Why?
7. Friend of alleged Boston Marathon bomber shot dead by FBI
Why
is the FBI gunning down sources of potential intelligence? How was the
interview subject allowed to have access to a knife during an interview? Is the
FBI this incompetent or was something even more dubious going on?
8. Federal
Reserve 100th Anniversary
If the 100th anniversary of this evil and unconstitutional bankster cartel could not encourage wider media coverage of the Federal Reserve, then it seems that this nefarious organization will be enabled to continue to destroy the United States economy and devalue the dollar. If Ben Bernanke twerked on his way into retirement, would that help? What if Phil Robertson attacked the Fed in an interview with Vogue magazine while citing Matthew 21:12 or Revelation 13:16?
President Obama was trying to gin up a war in Syria by talking about chemical weapons? What about the chemical weapons the United States has been using in its unconstitutional wars? When these devastating birth defects lead to blowback in Iraq against the United States, will the federal government and mainstream media feign surprise?
While the mainstream media was debating the virtues of the bogus right to be on a television show versus the bogus right not to be offended by free speech, something major actually happened. Yet somehow the Fourth Amendment was not considered as important as whatever imaginary natural rights the right-wing and left-wing mainstream media was trying to concoct.
