o'SOTU - "Did The State of the Union Speech Sound Familiar?" (video 1m27s)

Be thankful he only has two sides to his mouth. -- rfh
     The phrase "speaks with a forked tongue" means to deliberately say one thing and mean another or, to be hypocritical, or act in a duplicitous manner. In the longstanding tradition of many Native American tribes, "speaking with a forked tongue" has meant lying, and a person was no longer considered worthy of trust, once he had been shown to "speak with a forked tongue".  This phrase was also adopted by Americans around the time of the Revolution, and may be found in abundant references from the early 19th century — often reporting on American officers who sought to convince the tribal leaders with whom they negotiated that they "spoke with a straight and not with a forked tongue" (as for example, President Andrew Jackson told the Creek Nation in 1829.)  According to one 1859 account, the native proverb that the "white man spoke with a forked tongue" originated as a result of the French tactic of the 1690s, in their war with the Iroquois, of inviting their enemies to attend a Peace Conference, only to be slaughtered or captured.  (Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forked_tongue )

From: dd Sent: Saturday, January 28, 2012 Subject:  "Did The State of the Union Speech Sound Familiar?"
Did the other night's State of the Union address sound familiar?  There's a reason for that.  The Republican National Committee created this video comparing this year's SOTU with years past.

o'bamacide - Roe and 54 million lives remembered

From: The ACLJ  Sent: Saturday, January 28, 2012 Subject: Roe and 54 million lives remembered
We marked the 39th anniversary of Roe v. Wade this week and the loss of over 54 million lives since that tragedy.
Our attorneys have some important updates on the defense of life.
President Obama says abortion is a fundamental constitutional right so that no one will be "punished with a baby."
A new study conducted by two abortionists makes the astounding claim that "[l]egal induced abortion is markedly safer than childbirth."
Health and Human Services has issuesd a new rule forcing hundreds of religious organizations to provide insurance coverage for abortion pills.
HHS: ObamaCare Requires Coverage of Abortion Drugs
This new regulation denies religious organizations' conscience rights, forcing them to provide abortion durg coverage to their employees, and only gives them one year to submit.
Since Roe v. Wade was handed down, more than 54 million babies have been aborted and an entire generation was eliminated.
Thank you for joining the ACLJ in taking a stand for unborn babies. To stay up-to-date with the latest news from the ACLJ, please "Like" the ACLJ Facebook page and follow the ACLJ on Twitter.

President Barack Obama's Pro-Abortion Record: A Pro-Life Compilation
by Steven Ertelt | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 11/7/10
Obama Pro Abortion Against Religious MoralityUpdated August 28, 2011
Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) — 
     The following is a compilation of bill signings, speeches, appointments and other actions that President Barack Obama has engaged in that have promoted abortion before and during his presidency.
     While Obama has promised to reduce abortions and some of his supporters believe that will happen, this long list proves his only agenda is promoting more abortions.
     During the presidential election, Obama selected pro-abortion Sen. Joe Biden as his vice-presidential running mate.

Pre-2008 Election Abortion Record in Illinois
Here is a full list of Obama's seven 'present' votes on issues related to abortion:
1997 Votes
SB 230 Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act.  Senate approved bill 44-7, with five senators voting present, including Obama.
HB 382 Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act. House version, passed Illinois State Senate, adopted as law.  Under the bill, doctors who perform partial-birth abortions could be sent to prison for one to three years.   The woman would not be held liable.
2001 Votes
HB 1900 Parental Notice of Abortion Act.  Bill passed 38-10, with nine present votes, including Obama.
SB 562 Parental Notice of Abortion Act.  Bill passed Senate 39-7, with 11 present votes, including Obama.
SB 1093 Law to protect Liveborn children.  Bill passed 34-6, with 12 present, including Obama.
SB 1094 Bill to protect children born as result of induced labor abortion.  Bill passed 33-6, with 13 present, including Obama.
SB 1095 Bill defining "born alive" defines "born-alive infant" to include infant "born alive at any stage of development."  Bill passed 34-5, with nine present, including Obama.
Following are Obama's actions and votes on Born Alive.  The bill number changed every year it was reintroduced.
2001 to 2003 ( source: http://www.jillstanek.com/archives/2008/02/links_to_barack.html )
2001
2003
     Democrats took control of the IL Senate with the 2002 elections. This year Born Alive was sent to the Health & Human Services Committee, chaired by Barack Obama.
     As can be seen on the vote docket, Obama first voted to amend SB1082 to add the "neutrality clause" from the federal version of Born Alive to the IL version to make them absolutely identical. (DP#1 means "Do Pass Amendment #1.)
     Then Obama voted against the identical version. (DPA means, "Do Pass as Amended.)
     Additional corroboration of Obama's vote: IL State Senate Republican Staff Analysis of SB 1082, March 12-13, 2003, bottom of page 2
     For 4 years following his 2003 vote Obama misrepresented it, stating the wording of the IL version of Born Alive was not the same as the federal version, and he would have voted for it if so. As recently as August 16, 2008 Obama made this false assertion.
     But when evidence presented was irrefutable, Obama's campaign on August 18, 2008, admitted the truth to the New York Sun.
     The nonpartison group FactCheck.org has since corroborated Obama voted against identical legislation as passed overwhelmingly on the federal level and then misrepresented his vote.

o'bamanomics - Black Bras: Size 38 [Yeah, I know....rfh]

This humor illustrates o'cap'n trade's energy policy especially as it applies to his 'head-in-the-sand' restrictions on domestic and U.S. waters offshore oil production.  His apparent economic model is to allow Chinese oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico between Florida and Cuba to drill into the oil reserves or to block the Canadian oil pipeline or to 'fund' $2B to South American oil interests of George Soros in order that we can then buy back the same oil from Communists and anti-Americans at higher dollar costs while at the same time killing American jobs! -- rfh
From: drude Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 Subject:  Black Bras size 38

The Business Deal
     A Chinese guy goes to a Jew to buy black bras, size 38.
     The Jew, known for his skills as a businessman, says that black bras are rare and that he is finding it very difficult to buy them from his suppliers.  Therefore he has to charge $50.00 for them.
      The Chinese guy buys 25 pairs. 
     He returns a few days later and this time orders fifty. 
     The Jew tells him that they have become even harder to get and charges him $60.00 each.
     The Chinese guy returns a month later and buys the Jews remaining stock of 50, and this time for $75.00 each.
     The Jew is somewhat puzzled by the large demand for black size 38 bras and asks the Chinese guy, "...please tell me - What do you do with all these black bras?"
     The Chinese guy answers: "I cut them in half and sell them as skull caps to you Jews for $200.00 each."
.......and this is why the Chinese own us!

2012 - free eBook: "Born to Lie" (137 pages, .pdf format)

From: The Washington Times  Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2012 Subject: complimentary book: "Born to Lie"
"Born To Lie: From The Birth Certificate to Health Care"
     Five questions President Obama is afraid to answer ... All the facts needed to win arguments with Liberals ... at your Fingertips.
 Dear President Obama:
     Why are you hiding your real birth certificate?  Even if you are an American, are you an American at heart?  Why don't Americans trust you?  Why do you want to take away our freedom in exchange for a false sense of security?  Do you want to play the role of God in our daily lives?  Both Obama and his teleprompter are afraid to answer these questions truthfully.  His actions during the last 8 months, however, do not lie.  The facts compiled in this book will send a shiver down your spine and give you the ammunition to win arguments with liberal co-workers.  Ask them if this is the 'hope and change' they voted for.  Timid conservatives will be strengthened.
     Born To Lie goes where no other book dares to go.  From the missing birth certificate to health care, can America trust her President to tell the truth?  What if the first African-American president turned out to be African but not American?  Is President Obama even an American citizen?  This unanswered question could be put to rest by simply producing Obama's original birth certificate.
     However, because President Obama has sealed his personal records and refuses to release a certified copy of his original birth certificate, the question continues to be asked.  Like all questions that are not properly answered, it will not go away.
     In addition to the birth certificate question, there are numerous other issues of transparency and trust that have caused President Obama's credibility with the American public to quickly wane.  The authors of Born To Lie are not birthers the label given by Obama's supporters to any and all who question the validity of his citizenship.  They are patriotic Americans with legitimate concerns who just want our President to tell the truth about his agenda of change.

     Google announced this week that it is rolling out a new, main privacy policy that covers the majority of its products.  The company is consolidating over 60 privacy notices into the main privacy policy.  It's keeping a few separate for "legal and other reasons". 
     "The main change is for users with Google Accounts," explains Alma Whitten, Director of Privacy, Product and Engineering at Google.  "Our new Privacy Policy makes clear that, if you're signed in, we may combine information you've provided from one service with information from other services. In short, we'll treat you as a single user across all our products, which will mean a simpler, more intuitive Google experience."

Google's new privacy policy raises new worries for feds

     Following Google's announcement of sweeping changes to its privacy policies on Jan. 24, concerns are being raised about possible user profiling and access to user information that could affect federal agencies and employees.
     For example, a privacy watchdog is cautioning that there may be implications for Google's role as a vendor of cloud email, Android mobile solutions and identity management services to federal agencies.
     "Congress should investigate Google's role as a federal contractor in light of its new data collection and profiling practices," Jeff Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, wrote in an email to FCW on Jan. 25.  "The government should require a better privacy standard from Google when it serves as a federal contractor."

     However, the General Services Administration said its Google Apps for Government are not at risk and are not affected by Google's new privacy policy.
     "The recent changes announced by Google pertain only to their free, publicly available services," the GSA statement said.  "These changes do not apply to Google Apps for Government, which is the version used by GSA.  Our usage of the Google Apps solution is governed by contractual agreement with Google and our prime contractor, Unisys.  The solution is compliant with all federal regulations and requirements, including those regarding privacy and data protection."
     Even so, while the GSA's Google Apps application is exempted, it was not immediately known whether those same conditions applied to other federal agencies utilizing Google services through agreements with YouTube, Gmail and Android application providers, or to agencies using Google's services as a certified identity provider to the federal government.  Google users often have to log in with a username, which, in many workplaces, might be linked to the agency or company as much as the individual user.
     Google's new policies are raising questions in the blogosphere about how Google will use the tracking information it collects on individuals, whether it would assemble detailed dossiers on individuals, how long it would be stored, who might have access to it, and whether it would ever be disclosed publicly or to third parties.  The answers might have impact on federal workers, especially those in sensitive positions or those involved in contracting.
     For example, there might be reason for concern if Google assembles a tracking profile based on online activity by a federal contracting officer who is involved in a vendor selection in which Google is competing.  There may be ethical and privacy concerns about which Google company members are allowed to view the profile, or how that profile might be used or distributed.
     In another hypothetical scenario, there may be privacy concerns related to Google's collection of phone numbers and location data for a federal employee in a sensitive national security or law enforcement position who uses an Android mobile device.  It was not clear from the announcements how that information would be stored, and who might have access to it.
     In theory, those concerns might apply whether the federal contracting officer used Google at work or at home.  Broadly speaking, Google's policy changes also are triggering privacy concerns for the public, including federal executives and employees, who use Google's search, Gmail, YouTube in their private lives.
     Google announced it would begin consolidating and tracking personal user data collected through search, Gmail, YouTube, Google+ and other products into a single user data profile for the purpose of better serving users.  That allows Google to better target advertising to individual tastes across platforms; for example, users who view a Lady Gaga video on YouTube may see ads for upcoming concert tickets when they open their Gmail email account.
     Google executives described the changes as a streamlining and simplification of its services.  "Regulators globally have been calling for shorter, simpler privacy policies—and having one policy covering many different products is now fairly standard across the Web," Alma Whitten, Google's director of privacy, product and engineering, wrote in a blog post about the new policy. 
     The changes go into effect March 1.  Users cannot opt out of the new policies.      Reaction to the policy changes on the Web was leaning negative.  Although a few bloggers and observers were mildly supportive, many others questioned Google's motives and foresaw the possibility of broad profiling and significant privacy risks.
     "Google's Broken Promise—The End of 'Don't Be Evil,'" was the headline at Gizmodo. "This is an entirely new level of sharing.  And given all of the negative feedback that it had with Google+ privacy issues, it's especially troubling that it would take actions that further erode users' privacy," Gizmodo said.
     Those risks may be heightened for federal employees in general, many of whom work in sensitive positions, such as federal law enforcement or national security.
     Federal contracting workers also may be facing greater privacy risks, as a result of the strict ethics rules and conflict-of-interest prohibitions related to federal contracting.  In every agency, there are dozens if not thousands of employees who are covered by the contracting ethics rules.
In Google's role as a federal contractor, its new privacy policies may create new difficulties, Chester said.
     "Google's contracts with the federal government should be reviewed to ensure that it cannot gather and analyze additional data.  These contracts may require revision to limit the kinds of data practices Google just announced, which will enable it to collect and harvest complete profiles of its users," Chester said.
     Google's privacy changes are coming at a time when competition appears to be intensifying for social media advertising dollars.  Facebook recently changed its format to Timeline, with more than 60 new applications being introduced in its Timeline Open Graph. Google also announced recently it was adding social results to its search engine, which also was greeted with mixed reactions.
Google is on the defensive on its new privacy policy because of its track record on the subject, according to Juliana Gruenwald in an article in the National Journal.
     "The company has come under increased attention after a privacy settlement last year with the Federal Trade Commission on privacy concerns over the rollout of Google's now-defunct social-networking service Buzz," Gruenwald wrote.  "The commission said that Google engaged in deceptive practices when it automatically signed Gmail users up for Buzz without users' consent."

This is why I switched to DuckDuckGo several months ago.  They have a strict "no tracking" policy.  My understanding is they use the Bing engine in the backend, but it seems to work fine.  I very rarely need to go to Google.  I have Gmail and Google+ accounts that I don't use and will avoid even more now.  I'm glad I never started using GoogleDocs.

Everyone of our contracts includes a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and Rights in Data Clause.  Why should the darling Google be exempt from what we know works?  Someone have a sweetheart pushing business their way?

The combined policy is actually an improvement.  You have always been able to, and still can, opt out of using this data to serve you ads.  http://techcrunch.com/2012/01/24/you-call-that-evil/

The most important question, IMHO, is whether or not tracking information could be compromised by bad guys.  It could happen.  The wisest course of action is simply not to collect it for your Government customers.
