Complete video at: fora.tv Sociology professor Tariq Modood expounds on recent polling data from Great Britain that found younger Muslims tend to be more overtly religious, which he calls a “reactive defiance.” “Any minority that has that kind of pressure put upon it becomes much more aware of its own identity,” he says. —– Featuring Jose Casanova, professor of sociology at Georgetown University and a Senior Fellow in Georgetown’s Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs; Tariq Modood, professor of sociology at the University of Bristol and Director of the Universitys Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Citizenship; and Aristide Zolberg, Walter P


Fox News Speaks for Majority on Health Care Reform?

Fox News Speaks for Majority on Health Care Reform?


OVER 100 MORE examples of Fox News Bias at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=A3BD2524FE99BD4D Earlier this month, when Jon Stewart and “The Daily Show” totally decimated the credibility of Fox News in general and Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly specifically because of the way that the supposed straight news anchors on Fox News like Megyn Kelly keep aggressively opposing health care reform under the guise of speaking for the majority of the American people, I thought it might make Megyn Kelly and the other Fox News anchors a little more circumspect on the subject, but, this week, despite that drubbing from “The Daily Show,” Megyn Kelly continued using questionable poll numbers to pretend to speak for the majority of Americans as I show in this video. The clips of “The Daily Show” that I use in this video come from the segment broadcast on Comedy Central on March 3, 2010, which is available online at http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-march-3-2010/anchor-management The clips I use of Megyn Kelly and Bernard Whitman come from a segment on the Fox News program “America Live” broadcast on March 16, 2010 (that I have not been able to find online).

Ron Paul says Federal Reserve Helps to Launch War 2010.mp4


Written by Bob Chapman The dramatic and costly undertow of deflation continues unabated, as government via fiscal policy and the Federal Reserve, by creating money and credit out of thin air, proceed to overpower this deflation with massive inflation. Unbeknownst to most the Fed and the Treasury have been maintaining this program for the past several years, accompanied by most major countries, all of which have taken the path of least resistance rather than address the underlying problems. The current stage of problems had to be addressed 2-1/2 years ago in what has become known as a credit crisis
