Follow Sierra @ www.twitter.com Sierra Adamson talks to Jeremy Scahill, journalist and author of 'Blackwater,' about some of the under-reported issues such as drone strikes in the Middle East, Obama's kill list/Disposition Matrix, NDAA, use of the Espionage Act against whistle-blowers. Jeremy talks about the assassination of the 16 year old American citizen, Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, who was killed by a drone strike authorized by President Obama and the response Robert Gibbs recently gave us when we questioned him on it. He discusses the left's disregard of their anti-war principles in favor of being loyal to leaders in their own party and the war propaganda that is fed to Americans through mass media.

Get the Fast & Furious facts at oversight.house.gov Your government - in the form of the Obama-Holder Justice Department - helped arm Mexican drug cartels through the botched sting known as Operation Fast and Furious. Hundreds have died and the Obama Administration refuses to answer the question: who is accountable here? Where does the buck stop? Oversight Committee watchdogs, led by Chairman Darrell Issa, will not relent until those responsible for this felony stupid, deadly Obama Administration program is held to public account. Americans have a right to know. 10-7-11: Oversight Productions Author: oversightandreform Duration: 1:18

In a massive dump of 55000 more State Department cables by Wikileaks today, we saw the first hand written account of Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham's visit to Libya in 2009. Gaddafi was in the good graces of the US and discussions of weapons sales had taken place. But two years later, what happened to that whole guarantee against foreign aggression?

25+ MORE examples of Fox News Biased Video Editing at www.youtube.com 135+ MORE examples of Fox News Bias at www.youtube.com Last week, Fox News' supposedly straight news program "America's Newsroom" spun North Korea's recent revelation of a uranium enrichment facility as evidence of an error by the Obama Administration both by dishonestly editing a clip of a 2009 Fox News interview of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (which was itself edited out of context to remove criticism of the Bush Administration) and also by misrepresenting statements from former ambassador Christopher Hill about aluminum tubes only being usable for uranium enrichment already debunked as part of the discredited evidence of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction (WMDs), as I show in this video. The clips I use of Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer and Fox News reporter Jennifer Griffin come from a segment broadcast November 22, 2010, on Fox News' "America's Newsroom" (which I have not found available online) The clip I use of James Rosen's February 2009 interview of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton comes from a segment broadcast on Fox News' "Special Report" available online at video.foxnews.com The clip I use of former ambassador Christopher Hill's February 22, 2007, speech to the Brookings Institution comes from the ForaTV video available online at fora.tv The image I use of the transcript of James Rosen's February 2009 interview of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton comes from the Fox News webpage at <b>...</b> Author: LiberalViewer Duration: 5:57

From the war in Iraq to the space station, government programs almost always end up costing much more than they were supposed to. They also usually end up doing more than they were supposed to. Would ObamaCare be any different? Some say ObamaCare would lead to death panels, even euthanasia classes. Now supporters of President Obama's health care overhaul are fighting back against such charges. And the president himself warns: "If you misrepresent what's in this plan, we will call you out." But you don't have to side with those who warn of euthanasia classes to recognize that government programs often end up doing all kinds of things that weren't in politicians' original plans. Call it mission creep. Politicians pass a program, and then the scope of the program grows and changes. It's happened with everything from state-level health insurance plans to the Troubled Asset Relief Program. TARP's original mission was spelled out in its name--the governments would purchase troubled assets from financial institutions. However, just over a year later TARP's mission has exploded, and billions in TARP funds have gone to bail out General Motors, Chrysler, and struggling homeowners. TARP money may even fund another stimulus. "The Best Laid Plans of ObamaCare" is written and produced by Ted Balaker, and hosted by Nick Gillespie.
