MedicalConspiracies- Fw: IT'S WHAT YOU SCATTER

IT'S WHAT YOU SCATTER
I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes... I noticed a
small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily
apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas.

I paid for my potatoes but was also drawn to the display of fresh green
peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes.

Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr.
Miller (the store owner) and the ragged boy next to me.

'Hello Barry, how are you today?'

'H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. They sure look
good'
'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?'
               
'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.'
               
'Good. Anything I can help you with?'

'No, Sir. Jus' admirin' them peas.'
'Would you like to take some home?' asked Mr. Miller.

'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.'

'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?'

'All I got's my prize marble here.'

'Is that right? Let me see it', said Miller.

'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.'

'I can see that. Hmm mmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go
for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?' the store owner asked.

'Not zackley but almost.'

'Tell you what. Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way
let me look at that red marble'. Mr. Miller told the boy.

'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.'

Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me.
               
With a smile she said, 'There are two other boys like him in our community,
all three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with
them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever.
When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides
he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce
for a green marble or an orange one, when they come on their next trip to
the store.'

I left the store  smiling to myself, impressed with this man. A short time
later I moved to Colorado, but I never forgot the story of this man, the
boys, and their bartering for marbles.
Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one. Just recently
I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while I
was there learned that Mr. Miller had died. They were having his visitation
that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany
them. Upon arrival at the mortuary we fell into line to meet the relatives
of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could.

Ahead of us in line were three young men. One was in an army uniform and the
other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts...all very
professional looking. They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and
smiling by her husband's casket. Each of the young men hugged her, kissed
her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket. Her
misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one; each young man stopped
briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket.
Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes.

Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and reminded her of
the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her
husband's bartering for marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took my hand
and led me to the casket.

'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about.  They
just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 'traded' them. Now, at
last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size....they came to
pay their debt.'

'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world,' she confided,
'but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho .....'
With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased
husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles.

The Moral:
We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds. Life is not
measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath.

Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ~ A fresh pot of coffee you
didn't make yourself...

An unexpected phone call from an old friend....

Green traffic lights when you drive....

The fastest line at the grocery store....

Your keys found right where you left them.

Send this to the people you'll never forget. I just did...

If you don't send it to anyone, it means you are in way too much of a hurry
to even notice the ordinary miracles when they occur.
               
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GATHER, BUT WHAT YOU SCATTER THAT TELLS WHAT KIND OF LIFE
YOU HAVE LIVED!

US pig snout even in Baltic states: Nearly 600 U.S. soldiers with tanks to arrive in Poland, Baltics 26 Sept 2014 Nearly 600 U.S. soldiers accompanied by tanks and other vehicles will arrive in Poland and the Baltic states at the weekend for military exercises, the Polish defence ministry said on Friday. The U.S. soldiers will replace a more lightly armed force of paratroopers and will take part in rotational exercises meant to show the United States' commitment to NATO's eastern allies, it said in a statement. "The Americans are training for the deployment of forces and for cooperation with allies," Artur Golawski, a spokesman for Poland's armed forces, told Reuters.
 
US-led coalition hits Islamic State group in 4 provinces across northern and eastern Syria 29 Sept 2014 Activists say the U.S.-led coalition has carried out several airstrikes targeting Islamic State group positions in northern and eastern Syria. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says the air raids overnight took place in four provinces: Aleppo, Raqqa, Hassakeh and Deir el-Zour. The entrance to Syria's largest gas plant, Conoco in Deir el-Zour, was among the targets. The Observatory says there were casualties in the airstrikes, but that it has no concrete figures.
 
Retaliation for US-led airstrikes in Syria will follow, Al-Qaeda offshoot vows 28 Sept 2014 The US-led air campaign against terrorists in Syria amounts to a war against Islam, Al-Qaeda[al-CIAduh]-linked Nusra Front group has claimed, promising retaliation against those states involved in the bombing of the 'caliphate' instead of targeting Assad forces. "We are in a long war. This war will not end in months nor years," group spokesman Abu Firas al-Suri said as cited by Reuters. Dozens of Al-Nusra Front fighters were reportedly killed after the anti-ISIS coalition launched the first round of its airstrikes on Tuesday, and the audio message released on Saturday is the group's first reaction to attacks.
 
13,000 US troops to be deployed to Iraq: Officials 25 Sept 2014 Iraqi officials say that the United States is due to send 13,000 soldiers to Iraq, despite its claims of complete military withdrawal from the country. The vice president of the local council of Iraq's Saladin Province made the announcement on Thursday, adding that the troops, along with their vehicles, would be stationed at the Speicher airfield in the city of Tikrit, located 140 kilometers (87 miles) northwest of the capital, Baghdad. Washington has already sent 1,600 troops to Iraq, most recently on September 10, when an additional 475 soldiers were deployed to the country.
 
Australian forces prepare for military action in Iraq 29 Sept 2014 Australia's mission in Iraq is ramping up with cabinet expected to sign off on deploying troops and give the go-ahead for air strikes within days. Foreign Minister Julie Bishop says mentoring Iraqi and Kurdish forces remains the focus, but she hasn't ruled out Australian military or humanitarian involvement in Syria. The federal government national security committee and cabinet will meet early this week to discuss Australia's role in the conflict in Iraq, with the timing of a decision to go forward just a 'question of days', Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said.
 
Britain is at war: RAF Tornados in the air over Iraq with orders to strike ISIS as SAS teams on the ground prepare to guide arsenal of smart bombs to terrorists' lairs --Two armed RAF Tornados took off from their base in Cyprus today --They were armed with 500lb Paveway IV laser guided bombs 27 Sept 2014 RAF warplanes have completed their first mission over Iraq since Parliament gave the go-ahead for air strikes against Islamic State militants. Two Tornado GR4 fighter bombers were seen returning to their base at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus seven hours after they took off supported by a Voyager air-to-air refuelling aircraft. Neither plane deployed any of their weapons, but were ready to strike should the order have been given.
 
UK Airstrikes Could Begin in Hours After Yes Vote 26 Sept 2014 MPs have overwhelmingly backed airstrikes against Islamic State fighters in Iraq - meaning RAF bombing raids could take place in hours. Parliament gave approval by 524 votes to 43 (a massive majority of 481) for Britain to join the US-led coalition in the Middle East after the Prime Minister said IS forces are "psychopathic terrorists trying to kill us". Labour MP Rushanara Ali immediately resigned from the party's front bench after the result was announced.
 
MPs approve air strikes against 'Islamic State' in Iraq 26 Sept 2014 The Commons votes to join air strikes against the 'Islamic State' group after David Cameron says it poses a threat to Britain and is determined to "attack our country and our people". With the Conservatives, Labour and Liberal Democrats united on the need to take military action in Iraq, MPs voted by 524 to 43 in favour, a majority of 481. The debate prompted Bethanl Green and Bow MP Rushanara Ali to resign from Labour's frontbench because she was unwilling to vote for the government's motion.
 
Britain set to join third Gulf war 26 Sept 2014 French fighter jets hit Islamic State targets in Iraq and the US strikes in Syria, as British MPs debate joining a military coalition against the jihadi group. David Cameron will open a debate on joining the US-led campaign in Iraq at 10:30am -- but meanwhile the international action against the Islamic State group continues. US strikes were reported to have hit Islamic State targets in Syria's Deir al-Zor region, near the city al-Mayadin. French strikes in Iraq followed the beheading of a French tourist by militants in Algeria -- an act that it was claimed was retaliation for France joining the US-led campaign against Islamic State.
 
Ontario police urged to be vigilant following threats by Islamic State extremist group 27 Sept 2014 At least one Canadian law enforcement agency is urging its officers to be extra vigilant in the wake of the release of a speech from the Islamic State extremist group earlier this week urging attacks on Canada and other western countries, including their police forces. A security bulletin titled "Officer Safety: Jihadists Threats to Police" obtained by Postmedia News was sent to members of the Ontario Provincial Police on Wednesday. OPP spokesman Sgt. Peter Leon confirmed Friday that the bulletin was issued this week for reasons of officer safety.
 
California protesters block Israeli-owned ship 28 Sept 2014 Officials say a group of pro-Palestinian protesters are again blocking an Israeli-owned ship from unloading its cargo at a port in California. International Longshore and Warehouse Union spokesman Craig Merrilees says dockworkers at the Port of Oakland did not unload cargo from the ZIM Shanghai on Saturday because of safety concerns raised by the presence of police and protesters. He said the protesters blocked workers from driving into the terminal during their morning and evening shifts.
 
California governor vetoes drone warrant bill 29 Sept 2014 The measure, which passed the state's Senate and Assembly with broad support, would have required law enforcement agencies to obtain a warrant before using an unmanned aircraft, or drone, except in emergencies such as a fire or a hostage-taking. California Governor Jerry Brown [another useless DemocRAT] vetoed a bill that would have placed strict regulations on how law enforcement and other government agencies can use drones, his office said on Sunday.
 
Japan's Fukushima Prefecture Stricken by 5.0-M Earthquake 25 Sept 20145 Japan's Fukushima Prefecture has been jolted by a pair of moderate earthquakes on Wednesday. The first temblor with a magnitude of 5.0 struck at 9:45 pm JST (8:45 am EDT in the U.S.), according to the Japan Meteorological Agency. The second struck 46 minutes later at a slightly stronger 5.2 magnitude. JMA said the epicentres of the two earthquakes registered just off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture, where the Fukushima Daiichi and Fukushimi Daini reactors were located.
 
Volcano Erupts in Japan - 7 Rescued, 32 Missing 28 Sept 2014 Military helicopters plucked seven people from a Japanese mountainside Sunday after a spectacular volcanic eruption sent officials scrambling to reach many more injured and stranded on the mountain. Mount Ontake in central Japan erupted shortly before noon Saturday, spewing large white plumes of gas and ash high into the sky and blanketing the surrounding area in ash. At least 34 climbers have been injured, including 12 seriously, according to Japan's Fire and Disaster Management Agency.
 
American Doctor Exposed to Ebola in Sierra Leone Admitted to NIH --Patient to be treated in a 'high-level isolation' unit 27 Sept 2014 An American doctor exposed to Ebola in Sierra Leone will be admitted to a National Institutes of Health hospital in Maryland for care, the agency said Saturday. The unnamed physician will be observed and enrolled in a clinical study in the coming days. His admission to the Bethesda center is a precaution, and doesn't mean the physician was infected with the deadly virus while volunteering in West Africa, officials added.
 
Wisconsin's new voter ID law could keep me from voting at age 87 --I've been registered to vote since 1948. But once Republicans passed the law, I was asked to prove I'm not an 'illegal alien' By Ruthelle Frank --Ruthelle Frank is a plaintiff in the ACLU's federal lawsuit against the state of Wisconsin over its voter identification law [which the Koch suckers on the Supreme Court will eventually overturn]. 24 Sept 2014 In October 2011, an article appeared in my local paper reporting that, in order to vote in the next election, everyone was going to need a state-issued identity card for the first time. At 85 years old, I didn't have one, because I'm handicapped and so I never drove a car or needed an ID. The newspaper said that I'd have to go to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and register for a card, and it had a list of the documents that I needed to bring. I had everything -- except for the legal birth certificate. I'm not sure my parents ever gave that to me. [The petitions--and lawsuits--aren't working. Only open revolt can save us now.]
 
Wisconsin voter ID law ruling threatens chaos on election day 23 Sept 2014 Election officials and civil liberties advocates are predicting that a surprise court ruling that lifted a stay on Wisconsin's controversial voter-ID suppression law will produce chaos on election day, as estimates suggest that up to 300,000 eligible voters may not have the documentation now required to vote. With only six weeks to go before the general election - including a hotly contested gubernatorial campaign - activists say there is little chance that identification papers can be issued in time to all those who lack them. Thousands of absentee ballots had already been mailed before the ruling on September 12, without any reference to the voter ID requirement.
 
West Hollywood water main break sends torrents of water down Sunset Strip --The pipe with the break was installed in 1916. [Right, there's billions to fund al-CIAduh and I-CIA-SIS, so US corpora-terrorists can pave the way to steal all the oil in the Middle East - but there's not one cent available to fix hundred year-old pipes. Start reading.] 26 Sept 2014 A water main break on a 36-inch pipe in West Hollywood on Friday afternoon sent torrents of muddy water down Sunset Strip, prompting a series of street closures as crews respond to the mess. The break near Sunset Boulevard and North Olive Drive occurred at 2:18 p.m., and authorities are still trying determine the extent of damage...The pipe with the break was installed in 1916, then cement-lined in 1957, according to the LADWP.
 
Censorship of books in US prisons and schools 'widespread' - report to UN --Free-speech organisations find US government is 'failing to protect the rights of its most vulnerable citizens' as popular books -- including Shakespeare -- are banned from institutions 26 Sept 2014 There is "widespread censorship" of books in US prisons, according to a report submitted to a UN human rights review, which details the banning of works about artists from Botticelli to Van Gogh from Texan state prisons for containing "sexually explicit images". The report from two free-speech organisations, the New York-based National Coalition Against Censorship and the Copenhagen-based Freemuse, to the United Nation's (UN) Universal Periodic Review states that the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) lists 11,851 titles banned from its facilities...Prisoners in Texas are entitled to be mailed books and magazines, but the titles are checked on arrival against a "master list" of acceptable works. If they do not appear on the list, then it is the decision of the post-room officer as to whether they are objectionable.
 
Police Behavior in Ferguson Draws Attention of Justice Department 26 Sept 2014 Ferguson Police Department to stop its officers from wearing bracelets stamped with the message "I am Darren Wilson," in solidarity with the police officer who is being investigated for shooting an unarmed black 18-year-old, and from covering up their name plates with tape. The bracelets, dark blue with white lettering, were photographed on the wrists of several Ferguson police officers who were interacting with demonstrators this week as protests flared up once again in this small city in the suburbs of St. Louis...In a stern letter to Chief Thomas Jackson, Christy E. Lopez, deputy chief of the special litigation section of the Justice Department's civil rights division, said that the bracelets "upset and agitated people."
 
Ferguson, Missouri, Police Officer Shot Saturday Evening 27 Sept 2014 A Ferguson police officer was shot Saturday night, a senior local police source with official knowledge of the situation tells NBC News. The officer was shot close to the area impacted by protests last month in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting of unarmed teenager Michael Brown by Ferguson police Officer Darren Wilson, according to the source. Tim Zoll with the Ferguson Police Department told NBC affiliate NewsChannel 5 in St. Louis that the officer was shot in the arm.
 
James A. Traficant Jr., colorful Ohio congressman expelled by House, dies at 73 27 Sept 2014 James A. Traficant Jr., an iconoclastic nine-term Ohio populist in the House of Representatives who was convicted on corruption charges in 2002, becoming the second member of Congress to be expelled since the Civil War, died Sept. 27 at a hospital in Youngstown, Ohio. He was 73. The former congressman was injured in a tractor accident on his farm near Greenford, Ohio, on Tuesday...A fiery advocate for the disenfranchised, Mr. Traficant (D) became a local folk hero when he went to jail for three days rather than obey a court order to foreclose on the homes of unemployed mill workers.
 
Sen. Durbin calls for inquiry into fire at Aurora air-traffic center 28 Sept 2014 As federal officials declared it will be at least two more weeks until the Chicago Center air-traffic facility in Aurora is back at full capacity, U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D) said Sunday he wants the Federal Aviation Administration's inspector general to scrutinize the circumstances surrounding the sabotage that grounded and delayed hundreds of flights since Friday. Authorities say a contract employee, 36-year-old Naperville resident Brian Howard, set a fire in the basement of the facility as part of a suicide attempt.
 
Chicago-area air traffic center fire grounds nearly 1,500 flights, disrupts travel 26 Sept 2014 A fire set by an employee at a Chicago-area air traffic control center led to the cancellation of nearly 1,500 flights at the city's two major airports, snarling air traffic across the nation and globally. Flights resumed after a delay of about four hours, but there were bottlenecks across the air system. The blaze at the facility in Aurora, outside of Chicago, apparently was set by a man who suffered self-inflicted wounds, Aurora police said.
 
'Bear at Door' Is a Solid Reason to Not Deliver a Package 25 Sept 2014 "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds. Bears do, though. We don't mess with bears." -- Unofficial motto of the Canada Post. On Sept. 23, a postal worker left a note on Matthew Fane's Vancouver-area mailbox stating that they were unable to deliver a package to his door due to a "bear at door." According to Canada.com, the bear was likely a grizzly or black bear, which are frequently spotted around Fane's home in British Columbia.

CIA: COST OF PERSONAL COMPUTER IN 1987 IS A SECRET

Under the prevailing information policies of the Central Intelligence Agency, even some well-known public facts, such as the price of a popular personal computer, may be withheld from public disclosure.

"We bought our first Commodore Amiga in 1987 for less than [price redacted] including software," according to a paper entitled
"NPIC, Amiga, and Videotape" from the CIA journal Studies in Intelligence. It was among hundreds of papers posted online this month in response to a FOIA lawsuit brought by Jeffrey Scudder.

The redacted Amiga price figure is marked "(b)(3)(c)", signifying that the information is being withheld under The CIA Act of 1949, by which CIA may withhold information about the organization, functions, names, official titles, salaries, or numbers of personnel employed by the Agency.

But is the cost of a publicly available consumer item like the Commodore Amiga computer properly subject to this exemption? A CIA information management official did not respond to an inquiry on the subject from Secrecy News.

Based on previous official statements, however, the CIA would likely say that even if the cost of the Commodore Amiga in 1987 is not intrinsically sensitive, the fact that CIA expended that amount makes it so.

Moreover, CIA seems to have adopted a declassification rule dictating that all of its expenditures, no matter how trivial, shall be withheld from disclosure, except in extraordinary cases (or the occasional mistake). The Agency might go on to argue that such a rule actually facilitates disclosure by expediting the declassification review process. That's because instead of needing to pause to consider the potential ramifications of any individual spending disclosure, the Agency can proceed more quickly by simply withholding all such figures.

However, by adopting such sweeping non-disclosure practices, the CIA inevitably withholds more information than it should. And it lacks a reliable mechanism for correcting errors and excesses.

This has been a longstanding problem when it comes to withholding information concerning "intelligence sources and methods," as authorized and required by the National Security Act [a FOIA exemption designated "(b)(3)(n)" in CIA's internal notation].

The 1997 Report of the Commission on Protecting and Reducing Government Secrecy (the
Moynihan Commission) said that the "sources and methods" justification for secrecy had been invoked too broadly and required clarification.

"Neither the National Security Act nor any of the relevant executive orders has defined what constitutes a 'source' or a 'method,' and the use of these provisions has been the subject of frequent criticism. Protection of sources and methods has been used to justify the classification of a range of information sometimes only indirectly related to a specific source or method," the Moynihan Commission said (in
Chapter 2 of its Report).

"In practice, the sources and methods rationale [for withholding information] has become a vehicle for agencies to automatically keep information secret without engaging in the type of harm analysis required by executive orders as a prerequisite to keeping other kinds of information secret. The statutory requirement that sources and methods be protected thus appears at times to have been applied not in a thoughtful way but almost by rote," the Commission said (in
Chapter 3).

But no action was taken on the Commission's critique, and 15 years later the
Public Interest Declassification Board still found reason to recommend that "The specific protections afforded intelligence sources and methods need to be precisely defined and distinguished." So far, the Board's 2012 recommendation to clarify the parameters of the National Security Act on this point has also gone unheeded.

Meanwhile, based on CIA's promiscuous use of its withholding authorities as evidenced in the newly posted Studies in Intelligence papers, similar remedial action seems to be required with respect to the CIA Act as well.

And what was the cost of the Commodore Amiga in 1987 that CIA believes is exempt from disclosure today?

According to
an online history, the Amiga 500 cost $699 in 1987, while the high end Amiga 2000 (with 1 MB RAM and a monitor) cost $2395.

 
DNI ISSUES DIRECTIVE ON POLYGRAPH POLICY

Polygraph testing is here to stay, judging from a new
directive issued by Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. The directive governs the use of polygraph testing in vetting executive branch agency personnel for security clearances or determining their eligibility for "sensitive" positions.

The new Security Executive Agent Directive 2 on the use of the polygraph was
obtained by Marisa Taylor of McClatchy News, who has done a series of in-depth news reports on polygraph testing over the past couple of years.

The
directive does not seem to entail any major departures from current polygraph policy, but it has several noteworthy features.

Above all, it signals that polygraph testing is not going away. Despite
significant skepticism among scientists about the validity of using the polygraph for employee screening, the directive envisions continued reliance on polygraph testing. It states that agencies may even "expand an existing polygraph program" or "establish a new program."

The directive also represents the further consolidation of the authority of the DNI in his capacity as "Security Executive Agent." The new directive applies to all executive branch agencies, not just those that are formally members of the U.S. intelligence community.

Finally, among all the possible occasions for use of polygraph testing, the
directive singles out "espionage, sabotage, [and] unauthorized disclosure of classified information," suggesting that these diverse offenses are of comparable significance and concern.

In another recent issuance, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence produced a
Strategy and Schedule for Security Clearance Reciprocity in response to a congressional mandate. Reciprocity here refers to the mutual recognition by executive branch agencies of each other's security clearance approvals, which has been a longstanding but elusive goal.

With at least five (5) of the Supreme Court justices reported to be bought off, and Holder the engineer of the dastardly works beginning with the FBI/Murrah Building bombing and cover-up, followed by a long list of others, and Obama likely to use an Executive Order to suspend the 2016 elections after having declared Martial Law and effectively making himself Dictator-in-Charge of the U.S. of A., he will have the entire enchilada in his pocket.  If people think we are in trouble now, YOU AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN YET!  If you can't follow the progression in process, you got to be asleep as George Carlin put it.  Many are.  Just make sure you are not one of them.  Bob J

Subject:Supreme Court Appointment..............
 
  Hold on to your seats folks because this will rock you. The rumor
  Mill in Washington is that Obama wants a Supreme Court Judge to
  Retire quickly (I.e., Ginsberg) so he can nominate his pick while
  Harry Reed and the Dem's still control the US Senate. Remember, this
  Is a LIFE TIME appointment. Who is his rumored pick? Are you ready
  For this? "ERIC HOLDER!!!"
  Remember Harry Reed changed the rules of the senate so the
  Republicans couldn't stop it either. What then people? What do we do
  Then if this happens?
  This was a discussion topic on "The Five" today. It was brought up
  By Dana Perino, Bush's former press secretary. Bob Beckle also
  Indicated this possibility on the show.
  I'll tell you what. If Obama want's a communist long term legacy,
  Putting Eric Holder on the Supreme Court would do it. That
  Possibility should scare the crap out of all of us. Can you say
  "Good-bye 2nd Amendment" for starters?"
  Our only hope is that no one on the Supreme Court resigns or retires
  Before January 2015 and that Republicans take the senate in the
  November, 2014 elections. That is our ONLY hope. If we didn't already
 
  Have an incentive to vote, this sure as hell is a huge one.
 
VOTE…VOTE…VOTE….GET EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO VOTE IN NOVEMEBER!!!!!
