ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

This Sunday morning our talking heads will dissect Obama's Address to the Joint Session of Congress and a rapt national audience. Carrying over from August GOP Lawmakers Treat President Obama’s Joint Address To Congress Like A Town Hall Protest with Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC-2) shouting out "YOU LIE!" during one segment. Throw some bricks at Rep. Wilson on Sunday's FAKE NEWS and maybe drop some sofa change to his Democratic challenger former Marine and Iraq Veteran Rob Miller. Also on FAKE NEWS it's Blue Dogs MCKASKILL & CONRAD up against Hard-liners GRAHAM & HATCH. Meanwhile the WH Limo service revs up with HHS KATHLEEN SEBELIUS on This George, Advisor DAVID AXELROD on Face the Bob and Press Guy BOB GIBBS on State of the King. More Blue Dogs MARY LANDRIEU & JAY ROCKEFELLER back up Sebelius on This George. Gibbs gets backup from Blue Dogs JEAN SHAHEEN and DIANE FEINSTEIN on State of the John. Meet the David lines up DICK DURBIN and DR. HOWARD DEAN to face off against JOHN CORNYN and NEWT "Contract ON America" GINGRICH. To escape the Attack of the Blue Dogs, get Ring of Fire Radio with Senator SHELDON WHITEHOUSE. Also catch Consortium News's ROBERT PARRY on AntiWar Radio and MAX KEISER on Russia Today TV interview plus the weekly BTV Alerts. The Brick TeeVee crew has been winding down the garden after a bumper crop of zucchini and late cukes. Our few tomatoes are just now reddening and the butternut squash are starting to come into their own. We hope to have our first batch of BTV Salsa this week and have several recipes to try (tomato donations from the neighborhood are helping). We expect it to be very hot! Here's to an extended Indian Summer as we get ready for spinach and lettuce Round Two. Enjoy your Sunday!

Labor Day 2009 at Brick TeeVee!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

Ahead of Obama's speechifying this week to the full congress about health care much ado has been focused on the President's address to the nations students on C-Span and on-line. Pitt County schools won’t broadcast Obama’s speech, Backlash Growing Over Obama School Speech, Grand Forks students won't see Obama speech live, NE Ohio: School districts 'opt out' of live Obama speech. You get the idea. Judge for yourself by reading President to Address Students Fact Sheet. Keep a box of tissue handy as we get more scared of Swine Flu (and its alleged "safe" vaccine) from Secretary of Education ARNE DUNCON on Face the Bob and Center for Disease Control Director THOMAS FRIEDEN on State of the King (not to be confused with Flat-Earther Thomas FriedMAN - THROW BRICKS at the Real TOM FRIEDMAN on Meet the David). Our Holiday Knuckledragger Awareness Award goes to Dr. Howard Dean for trying futilely to convince faux news watchers single-payer is in their best interest. And George Will has an epiphany on Afghanistan on This George! Great stuff in BTV Alerts and our non-corpormedia sections. Do spend some Labor Day time watching/listening/linking to these important stories. The Brick TeeVee Crew awoke to a hurt deer in the back yard on Wednesday morning. We checked it out and a six-point buck was laying on its side with a pretty badly damaged leg (musta got hit crossing the road behind the BTV compound). Ohio Division of Wildlife advised us of a State Law "Do not resuscitate deer" law and asked us to leave it be. When we returned at noon Mr. Buck had passed. We summoned the city's services dept. to remove the Mr. Buck from our back yard. Deer get hurt and killed by vehicles every day but this one chose to lay down here after running fifty yards, jumping a wooden fence and dragging itself to the softest part of the yard. We excuse all the deer that chowed down our garden this summer. Neighbor Old Man John said he saw a Doe and two Fawns in the wood behind the compound. ;-( Have a SAFE Labor Day Holiday. Brake for Critters.

Brick TeeVee Remembers Ted Kennedy

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

As you all know Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy was buried in Arlington Cemetary on Saturday. But did you know he almost caused a "brokered" Dem Convention in 1980? Kennedy came into the Democratic convention at Madison Square Garden in New York City with 1,225 delegates to Carter's 1,981 and 122 uncommitted. Kennedy's only chance to wrest the nomination from Carter, who had enough delegates to win, was to pass an "open rule" motion. Read the rest. As we know from the 2008 election the gap between HRC and BO was much closer going into the convention, despite the efforts of Michigan and Florida and the Dems magically awarding Obama delegates from Michigan out of thin air. Just sayin'. So, on this somber weekend, YOU CAN THROW BRICKS! Start with NEW This George's Roundtable member LIZ CHENEY and throw them hard enough to bounce off and hit GEORGE WILL too. Throw them REALLY HARD and bounce them off to DARTH CHENEY on FAKE NEWS. The usual suspects you've seen and heard all week will blanket the other shows. Of course check out the BTV Alerts and Updates and the alternative voices we have every week. The Brick TeeVee crew wonders what liberal Senator will take up Ted's place as the "Liberal Lion"? Sheldon Whitehouse? Sherrod Brown? Bernie Sanders? An unknown to us now who breaks through? Rest in peace now, Teddy. We're still here. Fighting. Like you did.

Add your comments in too! Protection From Compulsory Vaccination, Drugging - Your Right to Self-Shield! SIGN NOW!
MORE INFO HERE: What's the Danger of Swine Flu Vaccinations? The average quantity of squalene injected into the US soldiers abroad and at home in the anthrax vaccine during and after the Gulf War was 34.2 micrograms per billion micrograms of water. According to one study, this was the cause othe Gulf War syndrom in 25% of 697.000 US personnel at home and abroad. (3). You can find this table of FDA analyses from the Gulf War lots on The Military Vaccine Resource Directory website (4) These values were confirmed by Prof. R. F. Garry (5) before the House of Representatives. Prof Garry was the man to discover the connection between the Gulf War syndrome and squalene. According to his findings, the Gulf War syndrome was caused by squalene, which was banned by a Federal Court Judge in 2004 from the Pentagon´s use. (6) ~ As seen on p. 6 of this EMEA document (7), the Pandremix vaccine contains 10,68 mg of squalene per 0,5 ml. This corresponds to 2.136.0000 microgrammes pr. billion microgrammes of water, i.e. one million times more squalene per dose than in (4). There is any reason to believe that this will make people sick to a much higher extent than in 1990/91. This appears murderous to me.~~ So far the use of squalene has been banned by the FDA in the US according to Der Spiegel (9). However, this may not last long (10). ~ My advice: If you are forced to be vaccinated against the harmless swine flu (H1N1) – demand a vaccination with the AstraZeneca nasal vaccine MedImmune (8)– thereby avoiding squalene side effects. -Dr. Anders Bruun Laursen @ Global Research, August 20, 2009

BRICK TEEVEE UPDATE!

We reported about Whole Foods CEO's John Mackey and his WSJ op-ed on health care a few weeks ago. Now Yahoo Finance reports (last Tuesday), "The CtW Investment Group, a part of the Change to Win federation of unions that advocates on behalf of workers' investments in pension funds, said in a statement that it is calling on the Whole Foods board to remove Mackey as chairman and find a new CEO. "Mr. Mackey attempted to capitalize on the brand reputation of Whole Foods to champion his personal political views, but has instead deeply offended a key segment of Whole Foods consumer base," CtW Investment Group's Executive Director Bill Patterson said in a statement." Well, THAT didn't take long! Go to BOYCOTT WHOLE FOODS for more info.

• Stacy Summary: What say ye? I note in the ‘emergency control’ over internet story, this paragraph: “Probably the most controversial language begins in Section 201, which permits the president to “direct the national response to the cyber threat” if necessary for “the national defense and security.” The White House is supposed to engage in “periodic mapping” of private networks deemed to be critical, and those companies “shall share” requested information with the federal government. (”Cyber” is defined as anything having to do with the Internet, telecommunications, computers, or computer networks.)“ So, the emergency powers would extend to personal computers as well as the actual internet? Bill would give president emergency control of Internet @ c|net Barney Frank says HR1207 will pass @ youtube

Eugene Bird, president of the Council for the National Interest Foundation, discusses Obama’s leaked plan for a Palestinian state, evictions and house demolitions in non-Jewish areas of East Jerusalem, increasing agreement among foreign policy elites that Israel must make concessions and how Iran’s nuclear issue is exaggerated by Israel to divert attention away from the Palestinian issue.

Brick TeeVee goes to Afghanistan!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

Our focus this week was going to be on Astroturf® organizations (created out of whole cloth with funding from prominent corporate elite structures in pharma, oil, energy and more) who are trying boldly to disrupt policy debates on a host of issues, but it was not easy to sift through the vast maze of lobbyists and websites. Corporomedia via Reuters actually got ONE story out there The summer of Astroturf which tells us, "The Public Relations Society of America equates it with the use of "front groups," which the above organizations accuse one another of being. (The trade organization eschews the more popular term "because Astroturf is a registered trademark.") The society, noted its Chairman and CEO Michael Cherenson, bans the practice - to no evident effect." Please comment and provide links to these so-called "Astroturf®" organizations for a future Brick TeeVee Special. Meanwhile the WH & Pentagon send the HumVee out with Joint Chiefs Admiral MIKE MULLEN and U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan and former Lieutenant (3-star) General KARL EIKENBERRY to Meet the David and State of the King to prop up the Afghanistan "surge", a war now in its 8th year with no strategy (other than protecting oil/gas pipelines aka PIPELINEISTAN). DOCTOR HOWARD DEAN goes to Face The Bob to take on Big Pharma Stooge CHUCK GRASSLEY and Blue Dog Apologist KENT CONRAD. Fake News Sunday tries to look "bi-partisan" with New Dem ARLEN SPECTRE. Throw bricks at JOE LIEBERMAN and DICK LUGAR on State of the King. Or throw bricks at dinosaur JOHN "Crazy Train" MCCAIN on This Snufagopolis. Your choice! Give a great big "welcome back" to GEORGE WILL on ABC's Roundtable where The KrugMan and ROBERT RIECH rib Will on his "extended" vacation (not unlike teabaggers' favorite targets those damned Public School Union Teachers getting all summer off!) Of course there's plenty of SUBSTANCE in the BTV Alerts and our regulars at AntiWar and Max Keiser. Seems the staff at Ring of Fire are on vacation so no new guest list this week so just tune in to the rebroadcast. The Brick TeeVee crew's garden is experiening a bumper crop of zucchini and huge loaves of tasty zucchini bread with our www.JustCoffee.coop "The Progressive Century Blend" morning brew! Yummy! Our late growing season is finallly letting cukes and tomatoes get going (despite raids by local deer and other critters) and some of our hot pepper plants have yielded nice peppers, so the BTV Salsa is still on! Hope your garden is productive this year, too!

Brick TeeVee Health Care/Insurance Reform Spectacular!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

AS the Congressional Recess gets into full swing with "birthers", "deathers" and various right-wing astroturfers shouting and yelling at town hall meetings across the country, in comes Whole Foods CEO John Mackey with a WSJ op-ed full of the same right-wing talking points (lies, mostly) the astroturfers spew. Ellis Weiner breaks the whole thing down point-by-point in HuffPo Half-Assed From Whole Foods: "In other words, just as patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel, so "a careful reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution" is the last, and sometimes first, refuge of the wing-nut. These people must be told, over and over (although they already know it; it's not as though they're arguing in good faith) that we can have the kind of society we choose to have." So get yer bricks ready for Astroturfer Supreme DICK ARMEY on Meet the David as NBC News tries to fill the gap with this "health care special". Will David confront all the disinformation spread by FreedomWorks? Look for RACHEL MADDOW and CHARLIE "Where's my General?" RANGEL too. This Snufagoplois goes with SEBELIUS, SPECTOR and HATCH while GEORGE WILL is still MIA from the roundtable. Face the Bob features ROBERT GIBBS from the WH and two former somethingorothers. SEBELIUS gets the WH Limo to take her to State of the King, joining a cast of shouting thousands, plus that loveable political odd couple of MATALIN and CARVILLE. Fake News Sunday sez: "We'll get 'just the facts' when we're joined by" Sen. KENT CONRAD AND RICHARD SHELBY (I swear that's what it said on the FNS website!). Ring of Fire has Bobby and Mike back with guests MATT TAIBBI and DAVID NIEWART while AntiWar Radio has a great interview with CHRIS FLOYD. Max Keiser gets in his digs on France 24 and there's more good stuff in the Brick TeeVee alerts, too. The Brick TeeVee Crew is saddened by the news of guitar innovator LES PAUL passing away. Rest in Peace, Les. Our condolences go out to the Les Paul family.
