NOAA: DECLARE UNUSUAL MORTALITY EVENT FOR ALASKAN WHALES

18 ENDANGERED WHALES, 10 FIN WHALES AND 8 HUMPBACKS RECENTLY FOUND DEAD WITHIN SAME TIME FRAME OFF KODIAK ISLAND. 

SINCE ONE TEST HAS ALREADY COME IN AS NEGATIVE, AS IN NOT SO, FOR TOXIC ALGAE BEING THE CAUSE OF A RECENT MASS DIE-OFF OF ALASKAN/ALEUTIAN WHALES AND OTHER SEA LIFE, NOAA HAS ASKED THAT AN UNUSUAL MORTALITY EVENT BE DECLARED AND FURTHER INVESTIGATIONS BE DONE.

THE WHALES SHOWED NO SIGNS OF PHYSICAL INJURY, NO WOUNDS FROM GUNS, SHIPS, OR OTHER MARINE CREATURES.

ONE MUSCLE TISSUE SAMPLE WAS TAKEN FOR RADIOUCLIDES.
JUST ONE FROM 18 WHALES.

LOCAL FISHERMEN AND NATIVE AMERICAN TRIBAL MEMBERS HAVE BEEN PLEADING FOR MORE INTENSE STUDIES FOR RADIONUCLIDES EVER SINCE 2011.

SOME OLDER PEOPLE REMEMBER SEEING THIS IN SEA LIFE AFTER THE NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS IN THE 1940s AND 1950s WHEN AMERICA WAS "TESTING" EVER LARGER BOMBS.

NO ONE IS LISTENING.

NOAA IS "LOOKING INTO" THE DEATHS OF EVEN MORE THAN THESE 18 WHALES IN THE ALEUTIAN CHAIN, MORE DEAD WHALES OFF THE PACIFIC COAST OF CALIFORNIA, THE BAJA PENINSULA, MEXICO, CENTRAL AMERICA, SOUTH AMERICA, AUSTRALIA, RUSSIA, JAPAN, THAILAND, INDONESIA, MALAYSIA, CHINA...AND, RECENTLY, EVEN MORE SEA BIRDS ARE WASHING ASHORE, NAMELY MURRES AND SHEARWATERS THIS TIME.

MANY SPECIES OF DEAD SEA MAMMALS, FISH, AND BIRDS HAVE BEEN REPORTED SINCE LATE 2011 IN THE SAME AREA OF ALASKA.

MANY SHOWED CLASSIC SIGNS OF RADIATION POISONING, BUT SCIENTISTS INSIST ON LOOKING AT EVERYTHING BUT THAT AS A REASON FOR AN UNPRECEDENTED NUMBER OF MARINE DEATHS.

NOW THAT TOXIC ALGAE IS RULED OUT, WHERE WILL THEY FOCUS?

WARM WATERS?
WATERS HAVE BEEN WARMER, AND COLDER.

IN THEIR MIGRATION CYCLE, ALL THESE ANIMALS SWIM THROUGH SEVERAL CHANGES IN WATER TEMPERATURE.

NO ONE HAS YET EXPLAINED THE CHANGE IN HOW MARINE ANIMALS ARE TRYING TO STAY CLOSER TO SHORELINES, NOR WHY SOME, LIKE ORCAS  HAVE BEEN TRAPPED IN ARCTIC SEA ICE OR STRANDED TRYING TO FIND NEW ROUTES AND AVOID THEIR USUAL SOUTHERN ROUTES, OR, AS IN THE CASE OF THE WALRUSES, PILING ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER ON SMALL NORTHERN ISLANDS, REFUSING TO GO BACK INTO THE WATER, NOR WHY SO MANY LARGE WHALES ARE STAYING NEARER TO SHORELINES, NOR WHY SO MANY FEMALE SEALS AND SEA LIONS FAILED TO RETURN TO NOURISH THEIR YOUNG FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW, CAUSING MASS DEATHS AMONG THEIR YOUNG.

WHERE ARE THE MISSING SALMON, HERRING, OYSTERS, SCALLOPS, URCHINS, SEA STARS, CRABS, PELICANS, SEA TURTLES?

BEACHES FROM THE TIP OF SOUTH AMERICA TO THE NORTHERNMOST CANADIAN AND ALASKAN SHORES HAVE BEEN REPEATEDLY LITTERED WITH HUNDREDS, THOUSANDS, AND MILLIONS OF VARIOUS SPECIES OF MARINE CREATURES.

SOME WHO ARE KNOWN TO BE DEEP SEA DWELLERS ARE SHOWING UP DEAD OR DYING IN SHALLOWER WATERS.

EMACIATION, TUMORS, SKIN LESIONS, "MELTING" EYES, ODDLY COLORED AND DISFIGURED INTERNAL ORGANS, SEIZURES, ALL HAVE BECOME COMMON TO SEE IN ESPECIALLY OCEAN MAMMALS AND BIRDS.

ALTHOUGH OBVIOUSLY STARVING, YOUNG SEALS CAME ASHORE BY THE THOUSANDS AGAIN THIS YEAR, STAYED ASHORE TO FACE DOGS AND HUMANS AND COULD NOT BE DRIVEN BACK INTO THE SEA, MANY DYING INSTEAD AT OCEAN'S EDGE.

THIS IS NOT "HYSTERIA", THIS IS NOT DRIVEL, WILD IMAGININGS OR "CONSPIRACY THEORY"....THIS IS JUST FACT.

PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVED BY THE SEA ALL THEIR LIVES, PEOPLE WHO HAVE SAILED THE PACIFIC FOR DECADES, PEOPLE WHO HAVE SEEN THIS EXACT SAME THING BEFORE, SEVERAL REPUTABLE SCIENTISTS, MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS, RESEARCHERS, MARINE EXPERTS, AND RADIATION EXPERTS HAVE BEEN SAYING FOR FOUR LONG YEARS THAT THE EFFECTS OF ONGOING TONS OF HIGHLY CONTAMINATED WATER AND CONSTANTLY ESCAPING RADIATION FROM FOUR REACTORS AT FUKUSHIMA DAIICHI EVERY DAY, ALL DAY, INTO THE ATMOSPHERE  HAS TO BE AFFECTING ALL LIFE THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH IT.

MARINE LIFE IS MOST SENSITIVE TO EVEN SUBTLE CHANGES IN THE ENVIRONMENT.
WHEN WE READ THAT THIS AMOUNT OF DEATH IS UNPRECEDENTED IN RECORDED HISTORY, WHY DON'T WE LISTEN?

WE'VE SEEN SO MANY BEACHINGS BY DOLPHINS, WHALES, WALRUSES AND SMALLER MARINE LIFE THAT ONLY A FOOL WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THERE MUST BE A SPECIFIC FACTOR CAUSING ALL TO REACT AS THEY ARE.

THEY ARE ALL OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO ESCAPE FROM SOMETHING THAT IS HARMING THEM!

MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF SO MANY SPECIES OF FISH HAVE WASHED ASHORE, FROM LARGE SAILFISH TO SMALL ANCHOVIES, ON BOTH SIDES OF THE PACIFIC, FROM THE LOWEST REGIONS OF THAT OCEAN TO THE NORTHERNMOST, IN UNHEARD OF NUMBERS.

EVERYTHING OUT THERE SEEMS TO BE SUFFERING AND/OR DYING.

EVEN BEFORE THE "MELTING SEA STARS" STORIES MADE HEADLINES IN MAINSTREAM MEDIA, MILLIONS OF OTHER DEATHS HAD ALREADY BEEN REPORTED.

"In August 2011, scientists at the U.C. Davis Bodega Marine Laboratory walked into their labs to a strange, disturbing sight.

Thousands of purple sea urchins and other marine invertebrates were dead in their tanks, which are fed directly by seawater.
IN JUST A FEW DAYS THERE WAS A 99.9% MORTALITY EVENT OF SEVERAL SPECIES OF SEA STARS AND URCHINS.
Only 10 purple urchins were found in an area once home to millions of them.

There were no obvious physical stressors (e.g., a storm, heavy rainfall).

[N]o previously documented mortality event has been so severe over such a large region… its sudden onset [is] a pattern that is rare in marine systems… typically [it takes] several months or years."

Amchitka Island, Alaska, Biological Monitoring Report 2011 Sampling Results, September 2013: 
To determine what [Fukushima Dai-ichi's] direct release of radioactive materials into the atmosphere might have contributed to the background radiation on Amchitka and Adak Islands, semiquantitative gamma spectrometry measurements were made 

The results imply that Dolly Varden [a type of fish], rockweed, and to a lesser extent, Irish lord [a type of fish] appear to contain a significant cesium isotope signature from Fukushima Dai-ichi. 

The estimated 134Cs/137Cs activity ratios in pooled fauna samples at the time sampled ranged from <30 to about 60 percent. Observations of Fukushima-derived fallout impacting on this region are supported by findings of elevated levels of 134Cs (and 137Cs) in lichen and soil collected from both the Adak and Amchitka regions."Department of Energy: April 12, 2013 Biological Monitoring at Amchitka Appears to Show Impacts from Fukushima Daiichi Incident.

Because the Amchitka 2011 sampling event occurred soon after the Fukushima nuclear accident, the biota impacted by atmospheric precipitation showed the greatest impact (e.g., species that live in freshwater or shallow ocean waters) when compared to marine biota living in deeper water. This is because ocean currents are a slower transport process than wind currents. LM scientists anticipate that the marine biota will show the impacts of Fukushima during the next sampling event, currently scheduled to occur in 2016.

A documentary video that describes the 2011 monitoring event may be viewed from the following link: http://www.lm.doe.gov/Amchitka/Sites.aspx.
 
THEY WERE ON THE TRAIL OF THE CAUSE BACK THEN...WHAT HAPPENED?

WHY ARE THEY LOOKING FOR OTHER REASONS NOW?

YES, THERE IS A "LARGE BLOB OF UNEXPLAINABLE WARM WATER" IN THE PACIFIC!
AND IF YOU TRACK BACK, ANYONE CAN SEE ITS ORIGIN....RADIATION FROM NUCLEAR REACTORS BOILS WATER! 

RADIATION EMITS HEAT!

IT IS NOT "TOXIC ALGAE"! 
THAT MYTH IS DEAD NOW.

THE ONGOING DEATH WE SEE IS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PACIFIC FOOD CHAIN ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP....PLANTS, ANIMALS, EVERYTHING. 

BUT IT ISN'T JUST THEM, IT'S ALSO US, THE HUMAN TOLL IS ALSO OBVIOUS.

WHAT FEW ARE MENTIONING IN ANY MAJOR MEDIA ARE THE ONGOING CASES OF CANCER THAT PEOPLE EXPOSED TO RADIATION FROM LONG AGO ARE EXPERIENCING TODAY.

WE KNOW THAT THE BOMBS AMERICA DROPPED ON THE TWO JAPANESE CITIES AT THE END OF WORLD WAR TWO STILL CAUSE CANCER IN SOME TODAY.

WE KNOW THAT THE RADIOACTIVE FALLOUT FROM CHERNOBYL STILL CAUSES CANCER IN THOUSANDS TODAY. 

WE KNOW THAT "DOWNWINDERS" AND THOSE WHO USED MATERIAL FROM OLD URANIUM MINES IN BUILDING THEIR HOMES OUT IN THE SOUTHWEST ARE STILL DYING FROM CANCER TODAY.

THE SAME IS TRUE AMONG DOWNWINDERS AFFECTED BY THE HANFORD NUCLEAR SITE'S INFAMOUS "GREEN RUN".
MANY CEMETERIES IN THAT AREA HAVE HUNDREDS OF GRAVES OF NEWBORNS WHO WERE AFFECTED IN UTERO BY THE GREEN RUN.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT COLLECTED MANY INFANT CORPSES AND KEPT THEM FOR YEARS, SOME REMAINING UNCLAIMED EVEN TODAY. 

WE KNOW THAT THOSE WHO WORK NEAR HIGH RADIATION LEVELS HAVE MORE CANCERS THAN OTHERS.

ALTHOUGH THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT HAS DENIED IT AND FORCED MANY PHYSICIANS AND SCIENTISTS TO DENY IT, NEWS STILL LEAKS OUT ABOUT THE GREAT NUMBERS OF CANCERS, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN, SINCE THE FUKUSHIMA DISASTER.

THOUSANDS OF YOUNG WOMEN WHO KNEW THEY WERE EXPOSED TO FUKUSHIMA FALLOUT REQUESTED ABORTIONS RATHER THAN RISK BIRTH DEFECTS, STILLBORNS, BABIES BORN WITH CANCERS.
SOME OF THEIR STORIES ARE HEARTBREAKING.

MOTHERS BEGGING THOSE WHO LIVE IN SAFER LOCATIONS TO TAKE THEIR CHILDREN, TAKE THEM AWAY FROM THE CONTINUED EXPOSURE...SAD, HORRIBLY SAD.

THIS ONE CHART SHOULD CONVINCE ANYONE THAT CANCER IS ON THE RISE, IS RISING DRASTICALLY SINCE CHERNOBYL IN 1986 AND FUKUSHIMA IN 2011. 

LARGER IMAGE <HERE>.

" The focus now is on “mortality”, which in the twisted world of Big Med, just means that if you live for 5 years after diagnosis that your treatment was a “success”.    If you die at 5 years and 1 day, then the cancer didn’t kill you."

IN THE 1940s, THE ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION STATED WITHOUT RESERVATION THAT NOT ONE PARTICLE OF RADIATION WAS SAFE, THAT
NOT ONE RADIOACTIVE ATOM INSIDE A HUMAN BODY WAS "SAFE".
THE "BACKGROUND RADIATION LEVEL" HAS RISEN AND RISEN AND RISEN AND THE CONTAMINATION OF AIR, SOIL AND WATER FROM NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS, MINING OPERATIONS, MEDICAL TESTING AND RESEARCH, INDUSTRIAL AND AGRICULTURAL WASTE AND "ADDITIVES", ETC, UNTIL, THIS YEAR, THE EPA WAS MORE THAN WILLING TO ALLOW HIGHER LEVELS OF RADIONUCLIDES IN OUR DRINKING WATER!

Background Radiation Has Increased 600 Percent -
1 mSv In 1950 To over 6 mSv In 2014;
Where Is This Coming From?

"Dr. Chris Busby and other nuclear professionals discuss how the background radiation is increasing all over the globe due to the huge radiation releases, leaks and nuclear plant accidents year after year of radioactive man made elements."

OUR CRUMBLING NUCLEAR FACILITIES, DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND THE RADIATION THEY EMIT FOR AT MOST 40 YEARS TODAY HAVE THEIR LICENSES RUBBER-STAMPED FOR ANOTHER 10, 20, AND NOW 40 TO 50 MORE YEARS, THOUGH TESTS SHOW THEY ARE ALL LEAKING SOMEWHERE AND THOSE WHO DESIGNED THEM HAVE SPOKEN OUT AGAINST CONTINUED LICENSING.

NOAA SEES IT AS AN "UNUSUAL MORTALITY EVENT", BUT NOAA DOESN'T HAVE THE GUTS TO CALL IT WHAT IT IS.
THE ENTIRE NUCLEAR INDUSTRY WOULD LOSE BILLIONS ON EACH FACILITY IF THEY HAD TO SHUT DOWN EVERY TOXIC SITE, FIND A WAY TO SAFELY BURY MILLIONS OF TONS OF WASTE, SECURE THOSE "BURIAL SITES" FOR HUNDREDS UPON HUNDREDS OF YEARS.

THERE IS NO SAFE WAY TO DO THAT, AND THEY AND ALL OUR GOVERNMENTS KNOW IT.

INITIALLY, RADIATION WAS A CONSIDERATION WHEN SO MANY SPECIES BEGAN DYING AT THE SAME TIME...WHAT CHANGED?

• CTV News: The vanishing sea creatures have caused concern among marine experts… [They're] studying the potential impact of Japan’s Fukushima nuclear disaster.
• 
  
• Discovery News: A wasting disease that’s attacking starfish… could be at least in part caused by nuclear pollution from [Fukushima] said a marine ecologist involved with studying sick starfish. Peter Raimondi [told News 1130 in Vancouver] that nuclear pollution carried across the ocean… can’t be ruled out as a factor. “One of the byproducts is obviously nuclear radiation discharge…” he told the news outlet..  
  
• Dr. Ian Hewson, Cornell Univ. (.mp3): “We’ve had a lot of questions about whether it is related to radiation from Fukushima. We can’t completely exclude that possibility...

RIA Novosti, Jun 15, 2011: Ocean currents ultimately carry this radioactive material to N. America.Jeff Feldner, Oregon Sea Grant Extension (NOAA) fisheries specialist(at 2:30 in): It’s probable that, for one thing, a lot of the larger animals got out of there quickly. The other thing is that I suspect animals, like whales for instance, I think they would probably be able to tell that something was wrong. They’re very, very intelligent animals. They’re not going to just wait until they start to die off. I think they’re probably likely going to have voluntarily gotten out of the area.

Vancouver Sun, Nov. 27, 2013: Michael Harris, executive-director of the Pacific Whale Watch Association said he’s been working in Puget Sound and the Strait of Georgia for 30 years and has “never ever seen this kind of behaviour going on. They must sense this is a safe place to be.”
 'Wild Whales Vancouver' had up to 10 close encounters this season in the southern Strait of Georgia, mainly near Galiano Island . 
The whales typically rolled on their backs and sides next to the boat and looked up at the passengers. One even placed its head on the boat while spyhopping, a behaviour in which the whale rises up vertically to look above the water. 

CBC News Vancouver at 6, Nov. 4, 2013: What’s going on in B.C.’s weird ocean waters? Scientists are just as puzzled as the rest of us.

There’s something very odd happening in the ocean and in the waters around B.C. — sea creatures are behaving strangely. And species are turning up where they are rarely seen

CAN ANYONE CALL ALL THAT FEAR-MONGERING?

HYSTERIA?

PANIC?

NONE OF THE ABOVE!

YOU WON'T FIND ANY OF THAT HERE, EITHER!
THE TEA ROOM AUTHOR IS JUST MAD AS HELL, AND WAITING FOR THE FULL TRUTH.
I HAVE TO BELIEVE SOMEONE WILL BE BRAVE ENOUGH TO EXPOSE THE TRUTH FOR ALL OF US.

FEAR, HYSTERIA, PANIC...WHAT GOOD IS ANY OF THAT?

NONE OF THAT WILL SAVE ONE LIFE, ANIMAL, PLANT OR HUMAN.

BUT TRUTH MIGHT.

KNOWING WE SAVED JUST ONE LIFE SHOULD BE WORTH TELLING THE TRUTH.

NUCLEAR REACTOR BUILDINGS SINKING TEPCO SAYS

THE BUILDINGS HOUSING THE NUCLEAR REACTORS ARE "SINKING IRREGULARLY SINCE 3/11", TEPCO FINALLY ADMITS.

WITH THE ANNOUNCEMENT, THE SUPPOSEDLY "LIVE" CAMERAS FOCUSED ON THE INSTALLATION WENT DARK, NO VIDEO, NO STILL PHOTOS.
NOT THE FIRST TIME, AND IT'S PRACTICALLY A PROVEN FACT THE CAMERAS ARE NOT LIVE ANYWAY.

THE YOUNG, BRAVE LAD WHO KEEPS THE "FUKUSHIMA DIARY" WEBSITE TRANSLATED THE DOCUMENT, WHICH, FOR THOSE FLUENT IN JAPANESE AND WHO HAVE JAPANESE FONT, CAN BE FOUND <HERE>. 

THE ILLUSTRATIONS ALONE ARE TELLING.

WHAT IS ALSO TELLING IS THAT NOTHING BEING REPORTED IN JAPAN HAS BEEN SO MUCH AS MENTIONED IN AMERICAN MAINSTREAM MEDIA.
CAN'T THE EDITORS OF THOSE RAG SHEETS READ THE ENGLISH VERSIONS FROM THERE?

POSSIBLY TOPPLING REACTOR BUILDINGS AREN'T NEWS ENOUGH?

The report reads ,
Reactor 1 turbine building sank by 730 mm [2.40 ft],
 Reactor 2 by 725 mm, 
Reactor 3 by 710 mm, 
Reactor 4 by 712 mm.

THAT LEAVES REACTORS 5 AND 6.

THAT ALSO LEAVES "FUKUSHIMA 2", THE DAINI NUCLEAR PLANT JUST SOUTH OF DAIICHI.
IT WAS ALSO DAMAGED BY THE TSUNAMI AND IT ALSO DUMPED CONTAMINATED WATER INTO THE PACIFIC, OVER 7,000 TONS FROM ITS FOUR REACTOR BUILDINGS.
IT WAS ALSO NEAR MELTDOWN AT THE SAME TIME AS DAIICHI.

On December 26, 2011, the Prime Minister officially cancelled the nuclear emergency declaration for the Fukushima Daini plant officially ending the incident.
SO, NO  ONE SEEMS INTERESTED IN DAINI AND NO ONGOING OUTSIDE MONITORING IS TAKING PLACE.
WE TRUST TEPCO AND ABE TO TELL US IF ANYTHING IS WRONG, RIGHT?

MEANWHILE:
"1,000,000 Bq/m3 of Sr-90 detected in seawater of Fukushima plant port / Highest in recorded history"

"On 6/19/2015, Tepco announced they measured 1,000,000 Bq/m3 of Strontium-90 at two locations in Fukushima plant port.

This is the highest reading in recorded history. The sample is the port seawater. Sampling date was 5/4/2015.

The location was near the water intake of Reactor 3 and 4, and also the screen of Reactor 4.

The previous highest readings were lower than 700,000 Bq/m3.

Tepco has not made any announcement on this rapid increase."

WHAT HAPPENS IF REACTOR BUILDINGS TOPPLE, CRUMBLE?Lake Barrett, Tepco adviser (pdf): Reactor building structure has likely been degraded… Explosions Weaken RB Structure… Aftershock May Cause Building Failure… — Issues: … Aftershock Structural Integrity

The explosions at the Fukushima Daiichi plant were indeed extremely destructive. 
The complex structure of the lower part of the reactor buildings is well suited to cause flame acceleration and potentially transition to detonation (see Sidebar 4.1 in Chapter 4). 
Ironically, having a strong structure with multiple compartments can greatly enhance the damage over a weaker structure—this result, although not intuitive, is now well established (NEA, 2000) and is an important consideration in combustion hazard analysis.

http://www.nap.edu/openbook.php?record_id=18294&page=340

THE SETTLING, AS MANY HAVE REPORTED WHO HAVE VISITED THE SITE, COMES NOT ONLY FROM THE SOFT GROUND AND WATER RUNOFF, BUT FROM THE INTENSIFYING DILAPIDATION OF THE BUILDINGS. 
THEY'RE QUITE SIMPLY CRUMBLING FROM THE UNPRECEDENTED RADIATION, THE CORROSIVE SEA WATER, AND FREQUENT EARTHQUAKES.

FROM THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, AUG. 6, 2013.Tatsuya Shinkawa, nuclear accident response director of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, at a news conference last month. "The water could pool dangerously underground, softening the earth and potentially toppling the reactor buildings", he said.

ON JULY 28, TEPCO BEGAN REMOVING THE COVER OF THE BADLY DAMAGED REACTOR UNIT 1 BUILDING., AND THEN...WE DON'T KNOW.Tepco accidentally destroyed a part of Reactor 1 cover at dismantling preparation in 2014.

TEPCO ALSO BEGAN REMOVING THE LARGEST DEBRIS FROM THE REACTOR UNIT 3 BUILDING THIS WEEK, A VERY HAZARDOUS JOB.
PHOTOS SHOW US HOW LARGE SOME OF THAT DEBRIS IS,

"Joint communications reported that the debris to be removed weighs 20 tons, but “Happy11311″ commented on Twitter that it is the 35 t of fuel handling machine. He added this is one of the most risky processes in decommissioning of Fukushima plant as fuel removal from SFP 4 (Spent Fuel Pool of Reactor 4)."

I GUESS WE HOLD OUR BREATHS AND WAIT.

COMEDY OF ERRORS FOR OVER 4 YEARS!
NHK Newsline, Apr. 14, 2014: [TEPCO officials] have revealed another mistake at the nuclear plant.

 Highly contaminated water was sent to the wrong building... about 240 tons¹ of contaminated water had flowed in.Mainichi, Nov 18, 2014 : Attempt to stop water flowing into trench at Fukushima plant fails… TEPCO determined that the leak must be continuing… critics have pointed out the possibility of it escaping into the ocean… TEPCO planned to freeze the water… However, the water was insufficiently frozen to stop the flow.

Newsweek, Feb 25, 2015: The fallout from the Fukushima disaster is far from over… Local commercial fishermen are reportedly outraged… “I don’t understand why [Tepco] kept silent… Fishery operators are absolutely shocked,” [said] Masakazu Yabuki, chief of the Iwaki fisheries cooperative… [The] plant has been plagued by a staggering number of accidents.
ACCIDENTS OR INTENTIONAL NEGLECT?
ACCIDENTS OR "WE JUST DON'T GIVE A DAMN"?

MANY TRIED TO TELL US BACK IN 2013 THAT THOSE BUILDINGS WERE SINKING.
TEPCO WAS IN DENIAL.

AP REPORTED IT IN 2013, BUT EVEN WAYBACK MACHINE CAN'T BRING UP THE ARTICLE:
{This page is a 403, forbidden page}

GOOD THING SOME OF US HUNG ONTO IT.

" Dec. 3, 2013: A government panel proposed additional measures to lessen the radioactive water crisis at Japan’s crippled nuclear power plant, saying Tuesday that current plans are not enough to prevent the risk of a disaster.
 A draft report, made available to reporters after the panel’s experts and officials met, proposes covering the ground with asphalt to reduce rain inflow  

Radioactive water has been leaking from the damaged reactors and mixing with groundwater.
 Experts say that the underground water that flows into the reactor and turbine basements is mostly rainwater, which can be reduced by covering most exposed dirt with asphalt. 

Experts also cautioned that decreasing the amount of groundwater could cause the ground to sink in some areas with soft structure. 

Such vulnerable locations include the area where hundreds of tanks have been built to contain highly radioactive water, said Hitoshi Tsukamoto, a geologist at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology."

[ANYTHING TO IMPROVE THE ECONOMY AND MAKE A PROFIT AND KEEP THOSE OLYMPIC GAMES IN TOKYO! 
LET DAIICHI FALL DOWN!]
TEPCO REPORTED THIS MONTH A HISTORICALLY HIGH PROFIT FOR THE YEAR, OVER 300% ABOVE LAST YEAR'S!
HOW CAN THAT BE IF THEY ARE SPENDING MUCH OF THAT ON REPAIRS AND CLEANUP?
IS IT BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT OWNS 51% OF DAIICHI 1 AND 2?

AP ALSO REPORTED THIS IN SEPT 2013:"Japan posted a trade deficit in 2011 for the first time in 31 years, and another deficit of 8.2 trillion yen ($82.4 billion) in 2012. About half of the increase stemmed from rising fuel costs, according to the trade minister, Toshimitsu Motegi. The recent weakening of the Japanese yen has added to the burden on the economy from oil and gas imports.

Having invested billions of dollars (trillions of yen) in nuclear plants and technology it is counting on selling to a burgeoning global industry, many of Japan's business and political leaders appear reluctant to give it up.

Even if Japan's nuclear plants are allowed to restart, many will soon reach their 40-year operating limits, raising the issue of whether and how they will be replaced. Meanwhile, the disposal and security of nuclear waste are issues yet to be resolved."

THE JAPANESE PEOPLE MARCHED IN THE STREETS BY THE TENS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS FOR MONTHS TO FORCE THEIR GOVERNMENT TO ABANDON NUCLEAR ENERGY, BUT EVEN WITH PROTESTERS OUTSIDE THE GATES, ABE ALLOWED A NUCLEAR POWER PLANT TO COME BACK ONLINE.

AND THEN THE GOVERNMENT THERE ORDERED A MEDIA "BLACKOUT".

PEOPLE GAVE UP.

LOOKS LIKE EVERYONE HAS GIVEN UP ON FUKUSHIMA.

MILITARY DRONE EXERCISE BLACK DART, SMALL DRONES NIGHTMARE

THE MILITARY SAYS IT IS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT HOW EASILY SMALL DRONES HAVE RECENTLY BEEN USED NEAR "SENSITIVE AND RESTRICTED AREAS" AND PLANS AN "EXERCISE" OUT IN CALIFORNIA TO READY THEMSELVES SHOULD AMERICA COME UNDER ATTACK BY SMALL DRONES IN TERRORISTS HANDS.

"Sweat the small stuff."   

That’s the unofficial motto for this year’s edition of the military exercise Black Dart, a two-week test of tactics and technologies to combat hostile drones that begins Monday on the Point Mugu range at Naval Base Ventura County in California.

Small drones are this year’s focus, said the director of this 14th edition of Black Dart, Air Force Maj. Scott Gregg, because of worrisome incidents since the last exercise.

Gregg cited the quadcopter that a drunk crashed onto the White House lawn in the wee hours of Jan. 26 and sightings of unidentified small drones flying over nuclear reactors in France. In the wake of those events, he said, “Even though we’ve been looking at [the small drone threat], it’s taken on a new sense of urgency.”

Gregg also could have mentioned how, to protest government surveillance, the Pirate Party of Germany flew a small drone right up to the podium as Chancellor Angela Merkel spoke in Dresden two years ago. Or how in Japan last April, a nuclear-energy foe landed a drone carrying radioactive sand on the roof of the prime minister’s residence. And there was a report last week that British officials are worried ISIS may try to bomb festival crowds using small drones."

THEY'RE GOING TO BLOW SOME OUT OF THE SKY!

WOOOO-HOOOO!
THAT SHOULD BE FUN, RIGHT?
COULD WE HAVE THE ONES THEY MISS, PLEASE?

" The $4.2 million budget for the event covers the cost of running the Point Mugu range and providing a small fleet of “surrogate threat” drones. For five hours each day, Gregg’s Black Dart team will fly up to six drones at a time over the range while participants test radars, lasers, missiles, guns and other technologies they think the military might use to detect and kill or neutralize drones of all sizes."

$4.2 MILLION?
THAT'S WHAT, TAXPAYER FUNDS OR MONOPOLY MONEY?

THEY CUT THE FAILURES SOME SLACK...YOU FAIL, THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WILL STILL FUND YOU, BABY!
"One nice feature for contractors: Failure is an option. 

Black Dart isn’t an official procurement milestone, so companies can test their technologies there knowing that if they don’t work as hoped, there’s no obligation to file a report that might lead the Pentagon or Congress to cut their funding or cancel their program. They can just use the test results the way test results were meant to be used — to find out what works and fix what doesn’t."

IT WAS A SECRET...NOT ANYMORE!
"The military has largely kept its work on the problem quiet to prevent hostile actors from learning what defenses and countermeasures the US possesses."The Defense Intelligence Agency conducted the first Black Dart exercise in 2002 under a veil of secrecy, and the annual event stayed veiled through 2013.
REALLY?
THEN WHY SPILL THEIR GUTS OUT ABOUT IT NOW?
HOW D-U-M-B IS THAT?

FOR THOSE WE LABEL TERRORISTS, SURELY THIS TIDBIT THAT MADE MAJOR MEDIA NEWS WILL HELP THEM MAKE BETTER PLANS.
SOME AREN'T KNOWN FOR BEING ANY TOO CLEVER AND ANY TIME OUR GOVERNMENT CAN MAKE THINGS EASIER FOR THEM, WE WILL!

MAYBE THE MILITARY CAN JUST PRINT OUT INSTRUCTIONS USING CARTOON FIGURES?

A VIDEO HOW-TO MIGHT BE NICE.
WE COULD SEND THEM VIDEO PLAYERS, TOO.
AND A GOOD TRANSLATOR IN CASE THEY HAVE QUESTIONS?

WELL, I'M SURE THEY ACCOMPLISHED WHAT WAS INTENDED TO BE ACCOMPLISHED BY GETTING THIS OUT THERE FOR ALL OF US TO READ...

"LOOK, LOOK, AMERICA! A NEW AND IMPROVED THREAT! 

FEAR AND TREMBLING AND SHOCK AND AWE! 
AND IF THIS HAPPENS, IF THIS COMES TO PASS, THEN DAMN THOSE TERRORISTS!"

WE MAY BE ABOUT TO SEE SADDAM HUSSEIN OR USAMA BIN LADEN RESURRECTED FOR THIS ONE, RECKON?

HOW ABOUT ISIS?
HOME-GROWN TERRORISTS?
SOME STONED-OUT-OF-HIS-MIND KID, WITH ORANGE INSTEAD OF GREEN HAIR?
WHO WILL IT BE?

WILL THE FBI SAVE US AGAIN WITH ANOTHER "STING" OPERATION AND CATCH THE BAD GUYS AFTER THEY BUY THE DRONES FOR THEM, DRIVE THEM TO THE DRONE LAUNCH SITE AND PUT GAS AND MAYBE A WEE BIT OF ANTHRAX OR ??? IN THE LITTLE BOOGERS FOR THEM?

THE FBI REALLY DID LEND A HAND TO A FEW WHO "PLOTTED A DRONE ATTACK!

IN 2011, THE FBI WEBSITE PATTED ITSELF ON THE BACK FOR FOILING A WOULD-BE DRONE ASSASSIN.In recorded conversations with the CW that began in January 2011, 
Ferdaus stated that he planned to attack the Pentagon using aircraft similar to “small drone airplanes” filled with explosives and guided by GPS equipment.

IN 2014, IT WAS A MOROCCAN GUY WHOM THEY SAY WANTED TO FLY DRONES INTO SCHOOLS, BACK IN APRIL .
SEE THAT ARTICLE BY CBS <HERE>.

WELL, THE FBI DID CONFESS TO USING DRONES RIGHT HERE IN AMERICA 10 TIMES...JUST 10, BOYS?
REALLY?
COME ON!
I GUESS THAT GAVE THEM THE EXPERIENCE TO GO OUT AND HELP, I MEAN STOP, DRONE ATTACKS BY TERRORISTS, RIGHT?

LOOKING MIGHTY FINE, FBI, CIA, AND MILITARY GUYS, MIGHTY FINE!

CONTINUING...
"with more than 80 countries now buying or building drones of their own, and with terrorist groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas and ISIS known to have used unarmed drones in the Middle East, that advantage [THE U.S. MILITARY ADVANTAGE] has evaporated.

Few countries and no terrorist groups are likely to emulate the complex and costly US system of undersea fiber-optic cables and satellite earth terminals in Europe that allows crews in the United States to fly drones carrying missiles and bombs over Africa, the Middle East and South Asia."

YEAH, WELL, WHO NEEDS BOMBS WHEN THERE'S ANTHRAX OR OTHER BAD TINY THINGS IN THE HANDS OF THOSE TERRORISTS, RIGHT?
HOW MANY VIALS OF DEADLY TOXINS DID THE CDC SEND TO OLD SADDAM AGAIN?

DID THEY EVER FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH HE GOT?
[SEE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD <HERE>]

THE CDC DID FINALLY OWN UP TO THAT "OOPSIE" DEAL.
[CLICK ON THE LITTLE NUMBERS, CADETS, GO BACK IN TIME...]

"From the United States, the non-profit American Type Culture Collection and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control sold or sent biological samples to Iraq up until 1989, which Iraq claimed to need for medical research.

These materials included anthrax, West Nile virus and botulism, as well as Brucella melitensis, and Clostridium perfringens. 

Some of these materials were used for Iraq's biological weapons research program, while others were used for vaccine development.^[4] 

In delivering these materials "The CDC was abiding by World Health Organization guidelines that encouraged the free exchange of biological samples among medical researchers..." according to Thomas Monath, CDC lab director. It was a request "which we were obligated to fulfill," as described in WHO and UN treaties.^[5] "

AND HOW MANY KURDISH PEOPLE AND OTHERS DIED FROM THAT "HELPING HAND" AMERICA GAVE SADDAM?

According to an article in the London Sunday Times:
"During UN inspections in 1998, it emerged that Hussein had had prisoners tied to stakes and bombarded with anthrax and chemical weapons for experimental purposes. These experiments began in the 1980s during the Iran-Iraq War after initial experiments on sheep and camels. Dozens of prisoners are believed to have died in agony during the program. "

"The Halabja chemical attack killed between 3,200 and 5,000 people and injured 7,000 to 10,000 more, most of them civilians. Thousands more died of complications, diseases, and birth defects in the years after the attack."

SO WE'D BEST HOPE THE OLD CDC NOR ANY OTHER AMERICAN HELPING HAND SENT SOME OF THAT TO OTHER MIDDLE EAST NATIONS, YES?
IRAQ HAD PLENTY TO GO AROUND.

AND LET'S ALSO HOPE ALL THAT WHICH THE CDC SHARES WITH COLLEGE LABS AND ALL RESEARCH FACILITIES, GOVERNMENT AND OTHERWISE,  IS ALL TUCKED AWAY NICELY, SAFE FROM...WELL, WHOMEVER FEELS AN URGE?

AND WE CAN ALSO HOPE THE MILITARY DOESN'T GET ALL CONFUSED AS IT HAS SO MANY TIMES AND LAY IN A LITTLE "FRIENDLY FIRE" IN THEIR CUTE LITTLE GAMES OVER CALIFORNIA...OR ANYWHERE ELSE.

BUT, HONESTLY, ANYONE WHO HAS A COUPLE HUNDRED BUCKS CAN GET A DRONE, AND A FIRST YEAR COLLEGE SCIENCE MAJOR CAN DIG A LITTLE ANTHRAX OUT OF AMERICAN SOIL AND GROW AS MANY CULTURES AS HE/SHE WOULD LIKE.

THIS ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE.

LOOK AT THE GUY WHO MANAGED TO MOUNT A HANDGUN ON A DRONE!
http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/jul/16/drone-firing-handgun-video-youtube
EASY AS PIE!

AND WE'VE KNOWN THAT FOR SOOOOOOO LONG!

IT'S A GOOD TIME TO ADD ANOTHER MILITARY EXERCISE TO THE ONGOING JADE HELM 15, THOUGH... NICE THEY CAME UP WITH SUCH A HELPFUL ONE AS "BLACK DART".

CATCHY NAME, YES?
SORT OF LIKE "BLACK BART"....

<SIGH>... ONWARD.
GOOD LUCK, CALIFORNIANS!

GOOD LUCK, ALL OF YOU WHO ARE CURRENTLY ENTERTAINING THE BOYS PLAYING OUT "JADE HELM 2015"!

DO WE HAVE A BODY COUNT YET?

GOP EATS ITS OWN, DEMOCRATS REJOICE

I AM ALWAYS ENTERTAINED BY BOTH PARTIES DAILY LIES, ESPECIALLY DURING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEARS.

MAYBE YOU HAVEN'T NOTICED HOW THE CANDIDATES BEGIN DIGGING UP EACH OTHER'S SKELETONS AND SLINGING MUD ALL OVER ONE ANOTHER AS THE "RACE" WEARS ON, BUT I HAVE WATCHED IT FOR OVER 50 YEARS.
IT'S QUITE REVEALING.

DOESN'T IT OCCUR TO "PARTY MEMBERS" THAT, SINCE THERE'S THAT MUCH DIRT TO BE FOUND ON ALL THESE CANDIDATES, MAYBE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ENTIRE TWO-PARTY, OR ANY PARTY, SYSTEM AND EVERY "CANDIDATE" THEY APPROVE?

OLD WEEPING JOHN (BOEHNER) SEEMS TO BE THE PRIME TARGET TODAY, AS SOME IN HIS OWN PARTY HAVE SUGGESTED, YET AGAIN, THAT HE SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM HIS POSITION AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.

LET THE NAME-CALLING AND CHARACTER ASSASSINATIONS BEGIN!
THIS COULD PROVE INTERESTING.

WHAT DON'T WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT BOEHNER?
WHAT WILL THIS MOST RECENT FLURRY OF OPPOSITION TO JOHNNY BOY REVEAL?
WE KNOW HE HAS SOME EMOTIONAL ISSUES, A PROBLEM WITH ALCOHOL, BLESS HIS HEART, AS MY GRAMMY USED TO SAY, AND THAT HE IS QUITE, HOW SHALL WE SAY IT, VOLATILE WHEN THE PRESS PRESSURES HIM?

IT ISN'T LIKE OTHERS IN THE GOP CAMP HAVEN'T SPOKEN ILL OF HIM BEFORE.
HE'S BEEN CALLED A "WIMP", A "LUSH", "STAND-OFFISH", ETC, EVER SINCE BEFORE HE WAS SPEAKER OF THE BROTHEL, I MEAN, HOUSE.

WHAT I'D LIKE TO CONCENTRATE ON IS THE CANNIBALISM THAT IS ONGOING.
WHEN THE GOP ATTACKS ANY MEMBER, ANY OF ITS OWN, OR WHEN THE DEMOCRATS DO THE SAME, WE CAN LEARN A LOT!
GLOVES COME OFF, IT'S A SLUGFEST, AND TRUTHS EMERGE...QUITE OFTEN.

EVEN A WEE MORSEL OF TRUTH FROM ANY POLITICIAN IS REFRESHING.

WHO HAS MORE "DIRT" ON ONE ANOTHER THAN THOSE IN THE SAME PARTY, RIGHT?

ABOUT JOHN...SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE OF CARDS.

THE LAST ROUND OF ELECTIONS FOR SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, JANUARY OF THIS YEAR, SAW 25 REPUBLICANS VOTE AGAINST BOEHNER, SEVERAL OF WHOM HAD RECEIVED CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS FROM HIM.
MORE THAN TWICE THE NUMBER OF REPUBLICANS VOTED AGAINST HIM THAN DID IN 2013.
HE WON WITH 216 VOTES, 192 OPPOSED.
OUCH!
THAT HAD TO HURT.

WHO WOULD BE THAT THANKLESS?

AS BLOOMBERG "REPORTED" (I USE THE TERM VERY LOOSELY. BLOOMBERG ONLY "REPORTED" 24 GOP MEMBERS VOTING AGAINST BOEHNER, BTW. THERE WERE 25.):

1~"Paul Gosar of Arizona, who voted for Representative Daniel Webster of Florida as speaker, received $10,000 from Boehner's political operation in 2012, when Arizona's districts were dramatically revised; he received nothing in 2014, when he was easily re-elected. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington-based research group that tracks campaign giving, 19 of the Republicans who didn't vote for Boehner today have received money from his PAC since 2010.The person these anti-Boehner renegades backed to become the next speaker is noted parenthetically, [THE AMOUNT EACH RECEIVED FOLLOWS WHOM THEY BACKED.]:

2~ Curt Clawson of Florida (Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky): $14,000. Clawson won a special election last June and was re-elected last November in a strongly Republican district. He ran as a political outsider.

3~ Rod Blum of Iowa (Daniel Webster): $7,000. Blum, a freshman, won the eastern Iowa district that Democrat Bruce Braley gave up to wage a Senate campaign that was unsuccessful. Democrats will target his seat in 2016.

4~ Dave Brat of Virginia (Representative Jeff Duncan of South Carolina): $10,000. Brat stunned the political world when he unseated Eric Cantor in a Republican primary in June, when Cantor was the incumbent majority leader and No. 2 to Boehner. 

5~ Scott DesJarlais of Tennessee (Representative Jim Jordan of Ohio): $5,000. Weakened by personal scandal, DesJarlais nonetheless eked out a win in his 2014 primary, the key election in the Republican-friendly district. 

6~Chris Gibson of New York (Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California): $5,000. Gibson, one of the least conservative House Republicans, said before the vote that he would honor a term-limits pledge and not seek re-election in 2016.

7~Mark Meadows of North Carolina (Webster): $5,000. Meadows is in his second term representing the western section of the state.
[NOTE: THIS PUTS TO BED THE DAY'S ACCUSATIONS THAT MEADOWS HAS BROUGHT UP OUSTING BOEHNER DUE TO HIS REMOVAL FROM ONE OF THOSE CLOSED-DOOR COMMITTEES. HE VOTED AGAINST BOEHNER BEFORE HE WAS OUSTED AND WAY BEFORE TODAY'S NEWS.]

8~Gary Palmer of Alabama (Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama): $5,000. Palmer, a freshman from an overwhelmingly Republican district in and around Birmingham, said during a candidate debate in June that Boehner had "lost his legitimacy to lead." 
Boehner's PAC sent him a check in September anyway.

9~Marlin Stutzman of Indiana (Webster): $5,000. Stutzman, who represents a safe Republican district in and around Fort Wayne, lost out to Steve Scalise of Louisiana in a race for majority whip last June.

10~Daniel Webster, a well-respected member whose 12 votes for speaker included his own, received $5,000 from Boehner's PAC in May 2013, about six months after he was re-elected in 2012. Webster won easily in 2014.

11~Brian Babin, a Texas freshman who voted "present" rather than back a candidate, received $5,000 from Freedom Project last September. Babin represents a staunchly Republican district that was previously held by Steve Stockman, who opposed Boehner for speaker in 2013.

12~ Boehner didn't make any political contributions during the 2014 campaign to Representative Justin Amash of Michigan, who voted against Boehner on Tuesday and also in 2013. Two of Boehner's former deputy chiefs of staff donated to Amash's opponent in the 2014 Republican primary. Even so, Amash has said he and Boehner have a very good working relationship.   

Which others in the GOP voted against Boehner?

13~ Rep. Randy Weber (Tex.) 
14~Rep. Jim Bridenstine (Okla.)
15~Rep. Jeff Duncan (S.C.)
16~Rep. Louie Gohmert (Tex.)
17~Rep. Tim Huelskamp (Kan.)
18~Rep. Walter Jones (N.C.) 
19~Rep. Steve King (Iowa)
20~Rep. Tom Massie (Ky.)
21~Rep. Rich Nugent (Fla.)
22~Rep. Bill Posey (Fla.) 
23~Rep. Scott Rigell (Va.)
24~Rep. Ted Yoho (Fla.)
25~ Rep. Scott Garrett (N.J.)

IT'S OBVIOUS BY VOTE TOTALS FOR "OTHERS" THAT THERE WERE INDEED 25 VOTES AGAINST BOEHNER FROM THE GOP SIDE OF THE AISLE:

Vote totals:

Webster: 12
Gohmert: 3
Yoho: 2
Jordan: 2

Others/"present": 6

TED CRUZ AND BOEHNER HAVE BEEN AT ONE ANOTHER FOR QUITE AWHILE NOW.
THE ONGOING ANIMOSITY BETWEEN CRUZ AND BOEHNER HAS GARNERED MUCH MEDIA ATTENTION, BUT THE BIGGEST HOOT HAD TO BE THIS ONE REPORTED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES:

"at a closed fund-raiser — in Texas, no less — it seemed to some of the 40 people in attendance that Mr. Boehner made his feelings about Mr. Cruz quite clear.
During the event, in Midland, Mr. Boehner was asked by the chairman of the state’s Republican Party, Tom Mechler, for his thoughts on Mr. Cruz’s presidential campaign. 

Mr. Boehner chuckled and then raised a middle finger.

BACK IN JULY OF LAST YEAR, CRUZ DID A PHONE-A-THON TO OTHER GOP MEMBERS TO TRY TO GET THEM TO OPPOSE BOEHNER'S IMMIGRATION BILL.
"Boehner's bill aims to make it easier to deport the tens of thousands of Central American children who have crossed the border from Mexico earlier this year. 

Cruz's opposition to Boehner's plan, HE SAID, lies in the fact that the speaker has declined to defund President Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Child Arrivals [DACA] executive order."
AND TEDDY OPPOSED ALL GOP "LEADERS"ON THAT NEW TRADE BILL, WHICH BOEHNER LIKES.

"Ted Cruz is reversing his position on a major trade bill, calling it a “corrupt” backdoor deal between Republican leaders and the White House.

“Why does Republican Leadership always give in to the Democrats? Why does Leadership always disregard the promises made to the conservative grassroots?” he wrote."

HOUSE REPUBLICANS TURNED ON BOEHNER BACK IN 2012 IN A BIG WAY.

"House Republicans embarrassed their speaker Thursday night by shutting down his Plan B to protect all but millionaires from a tax hike, come Jan. 1."

ALTHOUGH BELEAGUERED, BOEHNER IS BY NO MEANS THE ONLY REPUBLICAN THAT OTHER REPUBLICANS HAVE TURNED ON.

GOP INFIGHTING IS COMMON.IT HAS BEEN GOING ON IN A SERIOUS WAY FOR OVER A DECADE, BUT HAS ESCALATED CONSIDERABLY SINCE 2008.

REMEMBER THE BLATANT DISRESPECT RON PAUL AND ALL WHO SUPPORTED HIM AT THE GOP CONVENTION RECEIVED?
THE DIRTY TRICKS THE GOP LEADERSHIP PULLED MADE HEADLINES AROUND THE WORLD.

THE MIAMI HERALD, WAY BACK IN 2010, ON SOME IN THE GOP TURNING ON ALLEN WEST:

"GOP infighting: Flare-up over failure to gerrymander in favor of Allen West"

SALON, 2010:PHOTO CAPTION:
"U.S. House Majority leader John Boehner (R-OH) arrived to testify before the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct House ethics panel on Capitol Hill in Washington, October 19, 2006. The panel is looking into the conduct of former Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL), who resigned from Congress on September 29 amid revelations that he sent sexually explicit messages to young male congressional aides. "

"Among the party’s leaders in both chambers, there are some serious personality, policy and strategic conflicts — conflicts that figure to become more apparent if the GOP takes power.
Start in the House, where John Boehner, the GOP leader, can hear the footsteps of Eric Cantor. The two men don’t care for each other and have been in an uneasy alliance since Cantor became the party’s whip.
Tea Party senators — their ranks could include Marco Rubio, Sharron Angle, Rand Paul and Alaska’s Joe Miller, among others — will have a leader of their own: South Carolina’s Jim DeMint."[NOT MITCH McCONNELL.]

FROM HUFFPOST, 2013:
Here's an extraordinary pair of paragraphs from GOP strategist Brian Walsh,writing in the opinion pages of U.S. News And World Report:
 "The Senate Conservatives Fund and Heritage Action, the political arm of the once well-respected Heritage Foundation, have spent more money so far on attack ads this year against House and Senate Republicans than the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Democratic National Committee, combined.
Pointing fingers and attacking Republicans is apparently a very profitable fundraising business. It's also a detriment to the future of the Republican party. "

The business of enforcing purity control within the GOP ranks is booming, even if it fails to help the GOP govern. And the knives that carved up rock-ribbed Republicans like South Carolina Rep. Bob Inglis, Utah Sen. Bob Bennett and Indiana Sen. Dick Lugar are out once again. This time, they're aimed vaguely in the direction of GOP figures with well-established conservative pedigrees, like Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander and Texas Sen. John Cornyn."

ALSO BACK IN 2013, US NEWS AND WORLD REPORT MADE THE COMMENT

"Conservatives Eat Their Own for Profit"
"As chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee in 2010, Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, led what has been cited as the "GOP's greatest expansion in the House since the Eisenhower Administration."

For more than two years, Sessions spent countless hours recruiting strong candidates and raising tens of millions of dollars that were pumped into Republican campaigns around the country. On November 2, 2010, House Republicans won a net gain of 63 seats and Nancy Pelosi's days as speaker of the House were over. 

This week, the Senate Conservatives Fund – a super PAC run out of a Capitol Hill townhouse by operatives of former U.S. Senator Jim DeMint – called  Sessions a "Texas RINO" (that's a Republican-In-Name-Only for those unfamiliar with the term) and threatened to "actively recruit and fund a primary challenger" against him next year.
The career-threatening offense committed by this lifelong conservative leader? As chairman of the House Rules Committee, Sessions does not appear willing to help march Republicans off a political cliff and risk the House majority by shutting down the government – cutting off checks to military families and seniors and putting at great risk the recent spending cuts achieved through sequestration – over a fantastical fight to "defund" Obamacare. "

ON AND ON AND ON IT GOES.
WHO WILL BE ON THE GOP MENU TODAY?

AS THE CAMPAIGN FOR "PREZ, 2016" RAMPS UP, THE LIST OF THOSE WHO WANT TO BE KING GROWS DAILY.
BACKS WILL BE STABBED, ADS THAT TELL US THE SORDID TRUTHS ABOUT EACH ONE WILL BE BOUGHT AND WE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE INUNDATED AND BESIEGED BY CAMPAIGN LIES AND MUTUAL THROAT-SLASHINGS IN EVERY MAJOR MEDIA IN AMERICA.

AND IT IS NOT JUST THE GOP, THE DEMOCRATS HAVE ALREADY STARTED THE MUD-SLINGING AS WELL.

THIS SHOULD TELL AMERICANS SOMETHING, ALL THESE "TRUTHS REVEALED" ABOUT EACH CANDIDATE BY ALL THE OTHERS, ALL THIS EATING OF THEIR OWN, ALL THIS CONSTANT INFIGHTING...
NOT ONE OF THEM IS FIT TO BE DOGCATCHER, LET ALONE SERVE IN CONGRESS OR IN THAT OVAL OFFICE.  

ALL POLITICIANS, BOTH PARTIES HAVE SOLD US DOWN THE RIVER, AND HAVE TURNED ON AMERICAN VOTERS JUST AS THEY TURN ON EACH OTHER. 
THEY'VE TURNED ON THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, NONE HAVE KEPT THEIR OATHS OF OFFICE.

WHILE THEY DEVOUR ONE ANOTHER, THEY EAT AT THIS NATION LIKE A CANCER.

WE REALLY SHOULD DO THE SANE, LOGICAL THING TO SAVE AMERICA...
CARVE OUT ALL THE CANCERS!
IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE THE PATIENT!
