One of the most fascinating notions raised by the current presidential campaign is the idea that the United States can and must finally overcome the divisions of the 1960s. It's most often associated with the ascendancy of Sen. Barack Obama, who has been known to entertain it himself. Its most gauzy champion is pundit Andrew Sullivan, who argued in a cover article in the December Atlantic Monthly that, "If you are an American who yearns to finally get beyond the symbolic battles of the Boomer generation and face today's actual problems, Obama may be your man."

No offense to either Obama or Sullivan, but: No he isn't. No one is. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/02/01/AR2008020102827_pf.html

Any discussion of marijuana should begin with the fact that there have been numerous official reports and studies, every one of which has concluded that marijuana poses no great risk to society and should not be criminalized. These include:

• the National Academy of Sciences Analysis of Marijuana Policy (1982);
• the National Commission on Marihuana and Drug Abuse (the Shafer Report) (1973);
• the Canadian Government's Commission of Inquiry (Le Dain Report) (1970);
• the British Advisory Committee on Drug Dependency (Wooton Report) (1968);
• the La Guardia Report (1944);
• the Panama Canal Zone Military Investigations (1916-29);
• and Britain's monumental Indian Hemp Drugs Commission (1893-4).

It is sometimes claimed that there is ``new evidence'' showing marijuana is more harmful than was thought in the sixties. In fact, the most recent studies have tended to confirm marijuana's safety, refuting claims that it causes birth defects, brain damag e, reduced testosterone, or increased drug abuse problems. http://paranoia.lycaeum.org/marijuana/facts/mj-health-mythology.html

A new book entitled Secrets Uncovered, J Edgar Hoover - Passing For White? has been published revealing that J Edgar Hoover, the head of the FBI for most of its early history from 1924 until his death in 1972, had black ancestors. http://www.fantompowa.net/Flame/hoover_fbi.htm

Everyone knows that Thomas Jefferson had sex with one of his slaves, resulting in a kid. The bad news? Those are also the same people (the press), that thought Hoover wore dresses. Get ready to have that belief turned upside down!  http://www.ashbrook.org/articles/mayer-hemings.html

The song DIXIE is now hated and seldom played. The original "Dixie," was actually Johan Dixie (or Dixy), a Manhattan slave owner (yes, there were such things) in the 1800's. With the abolition of slavery in the northern states, Dixie, known as a decent slave owner (a debatable concept, to put it mildly), had to send his slaves to the South. Faced with harsher treatment in the South, the slaves remembered "Dixieland" (later shortened to just "Dixie") as a land of contentment. It's true. THE WORD IS ABOUT THE NORTH!  http://www.word-detective.com/back-i2.html

Accused of creating a bogus Red Scare and smearing countless innocent victims in a five-year reign of terror, Senator Joseph McCarthy is universally remembered as a demagogue, a bully, and a liar. History has judged him such a loathsome figure that even today, a half century after his death, his name remains synonymous with witch hunts.

But that conventional image is all wrong, as veteran journalist and author M. Stanton Evans reveals in this groundbreaking book. The long-awaited Blacklisted by History, based on six years of intensive research, dismantles the myths surrounding Joe McCarthy and his campaign to unmask Communists, Soviet agents, and flagrant loyalty risks working within the U.S. government. Evans’s revelations completely overturn our understanding of McCarthy, McCarthyism, and the Cold War.

 
Soviet documents released now back up McCarthy's claims!

Drawing on primary sources—including never-before-published government records and FBI files, as well as recent research gleaned from Soviet archives and intercepted transmissions between Moscow spymasters and their agents in the United States—Evans presents irrefutable evidence of a relentless Communist drive to penetrate our government, influence its policies, and steal its secrets. Most shocking of all, he shows that U.S. officials supposedly guarding against this danger not only let it happen but actively covered up the penetration. All of this was precisely as Joe McCarthy contended.  http://www.amazon.com/Blacklisted-History-Senator-McCarthy-Americas/dp/140008105X

The true story of the adopted black child of Jefferson Davis! Hidden for a century! 

The Vitaphone division of Warner Bros. was established in Brooklyn specifically for the production of musical shorts.  The Vitaphone process was an early sound format that synched the picture to a record.  The proximity of the New York stage provided Vitaphone productions with an endless pool of vaudevillian talent.  And in many cases, the Vitaphone shorts are the only surviving recordings of these vaudeville acts.  For example, a year before the landmark talkie The Jazz Singer (1927), Al Jolson did a Vitaphone short called A Plantation Act.  Other Vitaphone acts included Baby Rose Marie shown in Baby Rose Marie the Child Wonder (1929), George Burns and Gracie Allen featured in Lambchops (1929), and Charlie McCarthy and Edgar Bergen in Nut Guilty (1936).  The Nicholas Brothers also sang and danced their way through the Vitaphone short The Black Network (1936).  In 1938, Vitaphone studios was moved West and incorporated into the Warner Bros. Hollywood shorts division.
