			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to Leon Panetta, who is the director of the CIA, Al-Qaeda is on the run and are being driven further underground.  Panetta stated that recent military strikes in Pakistan have seriously lowered morale throughout the terrorist camps.  He also referenced an intercepted message in which a member of the terrorist group plead for Osama Bin Laden to rescue a group. </p>
<p>Through the use of real time intelligence received from Pakistan’s security officials, the US military has been able to send out missile strikes that are able to disrupt Al-Qaeda operations.  Panetta further stated that in recent months, the missile strikes conducted have led to the death of nearly half of the terrorist group’s top officials as well as hundreds of other lower ranked soldiers. </p>
<p>According to reports, the US killed another top Al-Qaeda official on Wednesday.  Through the use of another missile strike, the military was able to take the life of Hussein al Yemeni in Miram Shah.  Yemeni was widely believed to have played a large role in the bombing of a CIA post in the southern side of Afghanistan in December 2009.   </p>
<p>Panetta further stated that by targeting Yemeni in Miram Shah, the military sent a message that says terrorists will not be able to hide in populated cities. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With the Republicans short of stimulating candidates, General Petraeus is once again being touted as the opposition candidate for the election of 2012. He is being pushed by Congressman Peter King (R) NY. Comparisons between General Petraeus and General Dwight D. Eisenhower are being heard more frequently.</p>
<p>General Petraeus gained credibility when he turned President Bush&#8217;s &#8220;surge&#8221; into a success when prosecuting the war in Iraq. Almost everyone thought that the &#8220;surge&#8221; would be a failure but it turned out to be one of President Bush&#8217;s rare successes.</p>
<p>The General nor his advisers have hinted of a possible run in 2012, but these denials are part and parcel of the game of politics. The General&#8217;s relationship with Obama is not like it was with President Bush. The two of them sometimes went mountain biking in Washington, D.C.</p>
<p>General Petraeus is not endowed with a great personality and his actual combat record is not spectacular. Still, if America becomes disenchanted with President Obama and there are no other stimulating candidates on the Republican side, General Petraeus could be a &#8220;dark horse&#8221; choice.</p>
<p>Until the time of decision, General Petraeus will keep his head down. However, he does have a proven track record of getting along with Congress, which might make him a desirable candidate in 2012. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many politicians on the Left continue to shun Fox News appearances. This cannot be said for Congressman Dennis Kucinich and President Obama. The President will appear on Fox News, to be interviewed by Bret Baier on Wednesday and it is described as an &#8220;exclusive&#8221; interview. The interview will take place on the 6 PM show Special Report.</p>
<p>The main topic will be Health Care Reform. Bret Baier will also try to get some information on what is on the President&#8217;s agenda for the remainder of the year. Over the past year, Fox News and the White House have not been on the best of terms. Recently, the Communications Director for the White House Anita Dunn charged that Fox was not a legitimate news network. In response to this, Fox News network head, Roger Ailes conceded that Fox displays a lot of opinion in its news shows.</p>
<p>In the past, the First Lady has appeared on the Huckabee Show and Fox White House correspondent Major Garrett did interview President Obama. It should not be earth shattering because the people want to see the President interviewed by a competent correspondent, no matter what network it is. Major Garrett and Brett Baier present intelligent interviews, leaving the network philosophy out of their questions. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new book has revealed some startling secrets the government has kept under wraps for years. The author claims the CIA used unsuspecting civilians to test the effects of the psychedelic drug known as LSD. Documentation provided for the books appears to support the theory. So is it true?</p>
<p>H.P. Albarelli is the author of the book “A Terrible Mistake: The Murder of Frank Olson and the CIA’s Cold War Experiments.” The book took him more than ten years to research. His research included more than 100,000 government documents to support his theory.</p>
<p>His startling revelation that the agency used aerosol forms of LSD sprayed into New York City’s busy subway system has many in shock and disbelief. The government was attempting to test the biological weapon as a mind control device. Wouldn’t it be great if a simple command would get the enemy to drop their weapons? A document dated in 1950 supports this theory.</p>
<p>A colleague of the scientist Frank Olson, who jumped to his death after being experimented on with the same hallucinogenic drug has come forward to substantiate the claim. He claims in November of 1950 the experiment was conducted. There have been several previously unexplained subway incidents that may be related to these government experiments. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It was always known that the CIA and the US federal government has conducted expieriments with LSD. Now comes word that the CIA may have possibly staged LSD on New York City subways.</p>
<p>In a book written by H.P. Albarelli titled &#8216;A Terrible Mistake: The Murder of Frank Olson and the CIA&#8217;s Secret Cold War Expieriements&#8217;, declassified documents from the FBI dated from August 25, 1950 unveiled an LSD test was done on the New York City Subway system. At the time it was called a BW test or biological weapons test and at first was said that it did not happen. In the book though, Dr. Henry Eigelsbach, who at the time was a CIA research scientist said that the test did occur but little is known about the results.</p>
<p>The test involved a Narcotics agent who worked with the CIA by the name of George Hunter White. White was the administrator of the test and it involved him posing as an artist at the Greenwich Village subway station and he would take passerbys and give them the drug. White gave them a safe space to &#8216;trip&#8217; and after overdosing them would try interrogation tactics on them to see how much information he could get out of them, according to the CIA document. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The worst cyclone in 20 years has rocked the island of Fiji. Cyclone Tomas did not claim many lives on Monday night but it did cause the evacuation of nearly 18,000 residents. Tomas came across the northern part of Fiji and did cause some major structural damage. Authorities have said that the storm packed wind gusts in excess of 280 kh an hour.</p>
<p>According to authorities, the biggest thing has been is the damage to the water, sewage, and other services. The major airports are shut down and the assessments by the government are set to be done on Tuesday. The government has also said that the 18,000 residents have been placed in about 250 government shelters throughout the country.</p>
<p>New Zealand officials have said that they will step up to the plate as far as coming to the aid of the Fijians. Foreign Minister Murray McCully said an Air Force C-130 is currently on standby to render aid. He said that the plane is set up to deliver emergency aid and will also help in reconnasiance to help in assessing the damage of Cyclone Tomas. &#8216;According to local accounts, Cylcone Tomas is the worst storm to hit Fiji in nearly 20 years&#8217; McCully said. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A 29 year old woman who had been missing for three months has been found. </p>
<p>Sarah Rogers went missing back on December 12th after she left her home in a manic state. Her family reported that Rogers suffered from bi-polar disorder and paranoid schizophrenia.</p>
<p>Her body was found in the same wooded area where her abandoned car had been discovered. Her car had been found shortly after she originally disappeared with the keys in the ignition along with her cell phone and other belongings. The night she went missing a snowstorm racked the area and her car had slid off into a snow bank.</p>
<p>Authorities do no believe foul play was involved in her death but an autopsy will be performed. Her father is confident if his daughter would have been in the right frame of mind she would have called him for help. Unfortunately, Rogers had been struggling with her disease and needed help.</p>
<p>Her husband begged doctors for three weeks prior to her disappearance, to commit her. She had been hospitalized in the past after two suicide attempts but was released. They refused, citing Rogers&#8217;s unwillingness to be hospitalized. Now the young mother of a two year old child is dead. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>President Obama&#8217;s agenda is still on track. This week his major policy initiative, the Health Bill will face a final showdown. The President has kept Health Care in the forefront of his agenda, pushing for the whole pie, instead of pieces of the plan, which would be more assured of passage.</p>
<p>The revival of the economy, through further stimulus measures is still on the agenda. Though a comprehensive and expensive stimulus program will not pass, here the President is going to push smaller programs, with a goal of putting America back to work. Strengthening Social Security and the education system is still being pushed as witnessed by recent Obama pronouncements.</p>
<p>Energy independence and climate change initiatives are still on the burner. The President has again vowed to increase support for Green measures along with an increase in power derived from nuclear reactors.</p>
<p>In the realm of foreign policy, he is intent on winding down the Iraqi involvement but is determined to carry out the mission in Afghanistan. This is witnessed by his increased use of drones, far more intensive than that of the Bush administration. President Obama is still determined to prevent the Iranians from developing nuclear weapons. How this can be accomplished is still a mystery. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Coffee Party is set to be the next new rage in the political scene. Unlike the Tea Party, the Coffee Party is not about eliminating government, but rather, about wresting control of the government from corporations and special interest groups. They are about government following the will of the people and doing the bidding of the voters. They about finding solutions to the problems of the U.S. through discussion and decry obstructionism and political tactics.</p>
<p>As it gathers momentum, the Coffee Party is set to explode into a new grassroots movement that looks to impose the will of the people on government and without radical tactics. Their basic tenet is that the government is hired and paid for by the people and, therefore, should follow the will of people. They have the same concerns as the majority: the economy, affordable health care and education, and to cut government waste. They welcome diversity &#8211; ethnic, religious, and political.</p>
<p>Saturday, March 13th, 2010, has been established by the group as National Coffee Party Day on which they encourage small groups of members to meet at local coffee shops and discuss the issues that concern them most. A second date has been set for March 27th which they hope will draw even more people. </p>
