Thanksgiving Day is one of the most beloved of American holidays. It is traditionally the busiest travel time of the year as many Americans travel to celebrate the holiday with family. Thanksgiving Day is a time for Americans to return to their roots; i.e., where they grew up.
Thanksgiving Day–a day set aside to count blessings and be thankful for what one has–is slowly being supplanted by increased attention to Black Friday–a day dedicated to greed, covetousness and material possessions.
We hope everyone, while enjoying Thanksgiving Day 2014 with family or friends, will not forget to take a moment and be thankful for what you have.

–Seen on a church sign
Israel says it needs tougher tools to stop recent “lone wolf” attacks on Jews by Palestinians. But critics say the practice is strikingly at odds with basic notions of justice, fairness and legality in a democracy — and that it is bound to bring on more hatred rather than serve as a deterrent.
How Obama dumped Hagel – Cabinet members come and go during a president’s administration. A two-term president’s cabinet is shuffled several times (usually). But the “pro-Obama” Corporate Media is relentless in building resentment toward a man who knew that he would be resented for his actions. It was part of the deal, so to speak.
Obama is supposed to be the “failure president;” the Jimmy Carter of the early 21st century.
He has lived up to the title. He has worked hard to earn it. His “friends” in the Corporate Media have helped stoke resentment since 2009.
Obama is playing his part. Hagel is playing his. Everyone else with a stake in the matter is along for the ride.

HAGEL: The Fall Guy – This probably belongs more properly in the “Media Narrative” section, but we’ll put it with the other Hagel-o-lania today…
“Once a year, we set aside this event to, uhhh, to celebrate people who have helped make America stronger. And wiser. And more humane. And more beautiful. with our highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom.”
Clearly, this didn’t include Meryl Streep. But she was honored nevertheless.
Actors are treated much differently in 21st century America than they have been treated throughout most of recorded history.
FERGUSON: No indictment for police officer – There were a few things which stood out among all of the pleas by the various government officials for “peace” and “calm.” The announcement was made in such a way as to get maximum tension from the racial situation.
1- Instead of announcing the decision this morning or Tuesday morning, the officials allowed the tensions to build all day long. In fact, the time of the announcement was delayed an hour from the previously-announced 8 pm until 9 pm EST.
2- The prosecutors (who set the time of the grand jury verdict) made the UNUSUAL move to make the announcement after dark. This was so odd that USA Today even commented on the situation.
“The unusual timing of the grand jury’s announcement, after darkness had fallen, was a decision of prosecutors, [Missouri Governor Jay Nixon] said.”
For a government supposedly beside themselves with worry and concern, why delay the announcement until after dark?
The events in Ferguson–like many situations which face Americans today–showcase officials who say one thing but whose actions declare something altogether different.
They deceive the unsaved apostates in the American Church into believing they are living righteous Christian lives.
The MIcroaggression Farce – This is a very well-written piece. But whether a piece is well-written does not affect whether it is a media narratives or not. This piece details the railroading of a white professor at UCLA. Yes, the actions against the professor by UCLA were in no way fair or professional.
BUT, the author of the piece wastes no opportunities to gather sympathy for the professor. No opportunity is missed to disparage the students–even though some occasions appear warranted.
The piece is written to create that common Corporate Media product: anger. In this case, anger at “Scholars of Color.”
The fault lies totally with UCLA. Students will push the boundaries; the administration is supposed to firmly push back. UCLA railroaded this 79-year-old professor. There’s no two ways about it.
But the piece is still a narrative piece of propaganda. (Propaganda being defined as something which appeals primarily to the reader’s emotions.)
Which is what this article does from the opening paragraph until the last.
The Bible warns of the lawlessness of the end times; that this time will be a time of no restraint; of casting off the cords of civilized society. Of rejecting the restraints placed on man’s evil heart by God and His Anointed, Jesus Christ.
So it makes sense Satan and his apostate church are proclaiming: “We are breaking the chains!”
The apostate churches are excited. They believe the time of Jesus is past. The Age of Man (and the man of sin) is here.
They will try and put their proclamations into another context naturally. But some no longer try to hide it.
Whenever you hear someone proclaiming they are “breaking the chains,” they are fulfilling Psalm 2.
Day by day, one can hear the chains falling.
However, there is more to Psalm 2 than just the first three verses.
“He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.”
—Psalm 2:4-5
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
THE GOSPEL
“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
-–1 Corinthians 15:1-4 – (h/t:B)
“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master.” “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do.
Doing Heroin with my dad – Most humans tell themselves a wide variety of little lies and fairy tales in order to make their way easier as they move through life. This is a particularly sad collection of such fables.
It’s amazing the many ways man will attempt to repair the holes opened up by sin.
