The March Report URGENTLY Needs Your Support NOW.

After two years of underwriting the costs of producing the March Report out of my own funds, those funds are now exhausted. The fact that we are still in operation is solely due to the generosity of one reader, who wants to remain anonymous, who donated enough money last month to keep us going for another month. That money has now been used up, and he is unable to donate such a large sum again.

I must now ask the rest of you, do you want the March Report to continue, or not?

If each regular reader would commit to donating as little as $5 per month for one year, that will keep us operating for another year as we pursue investment.

Were it not for the fact that I am disabled and homebound, such investment would have been obtained already. However, given that I cannot attend the usual venture capital meetings, that leaves me at a tremendous disadvantage, in that these meetings are the main way those wishing to invest find projects to invest in.

Currently, we are working on a radio advertising campaign that will blanket the country in the overnight hours, when costs are most economical and signal penetration is greatest. This campaign will boost awareness of the March Report nationwide, including among investors. Launching this campaign again depends on our readers' willingness to supply the needed funds to do so.

The homebound phase of my illness still has a year or two to run, but the March Report does not. Without an infusion of capital, the March Report will have no alternative but to cease operations within a matter of days.

I am urgently requesting your help. Please click here and donate whatever amount you can afford.

Without your immediate help, the March Report will die within a matter of days.

Will you please help?

 

Robert Jay March is a disabled, home-bound journalist, who produces The March Report daily. As an independent journalist, Robert Jay March depends entirely on the generosity of his readers and advertisers to fund his work. Without your on-going financial support, the March Report would cease to exist. Please donate whatever you can afford.

Telepathic Computer Can Read Your Mind

Richard Alleyne -- Telegraph (UK)

Telepathy has taken a step closer to reality after British scientists developed a computer that can read your thoughts. The system is able to decipher thought patterns and tell what people are thinking simply by scanning the brain. The breakthrough is a step forward because it can delve into people's memories and differentiate between different recollections. The breakthrough follows research last year by the same team who used the same technique to track a person's movements around a computer-simulated room. ...

Mike Snider -- USA Today

Sony is officially making its move into motion-controlled video games. Its Move system, unveiled Wednesday at the Game Developers Conference, arrives in stores this fall. The system, with prices starting at less than $100 including a game, enables players to physically control on-screen characters using body movements a la Nintendo Wii's motion-sensitive controller. Sony's Peter Dille credited Nintendo with doing a "great job in introducing motion gaming to the masses" but called Move "revolutionary and a step ahead of anything in the marketplace. We'd like to think this is the next generation of motion gaming." ...

YEST International Probe Targets Secretive Catholic Group

Dana Kennedy -- New York Times



"Dan Brown got the wrong group," said Genevieve Kineke, an orthodox Catholic who was a member of Regnum Christi, the legion's lay movement, from 1992 to 2000 and writes a blog about her experiences. "The Legion of Christ is the scary cult embedded in the bosom of the mother church. Not Opus Dei." Two of the most visible priests in America are Father Thomas Williams, a movie-star-handsome CBS News analyst, and Father Jonathan Morris, who is sometimes referred to as "Father Knows Best" on the Fox News Channel. They belong to the Legion of Christ but rarely identify themselves as such on camera. A book, "Vows of Silence: The Abuse of Power in the Papacy of John Paul II," written by Berry and Hartford Courant reporter Gerald Renner, was published in 2004 with what one reviewer called "horror stories ... of brainwashing, manipulation, pederast seduction rituals, character assassination, bribes, drug abuse, gulag-type threats -- you name it."

The 'Looting' Of $11 Trillion From The U.S. Economy

World Tribune



The New York Times is quoting a spokesman for George Soros as saying that the well-known hedge fund operator is guilty of no wrong-doing in connection with the financial upheaval currently affecting Greece and Europe as a whole. But Zubi Diamond, author of the powerful new book, Wizards of Wall Street: & Washington Lap Dogs; The Scam That Elected Barack Obama: The Economic Crisis, says the agenda of Soros and other short sellers is clear. Their purpose, he says, is "to loot America and any foreign country which invested in America. Greece was one of them. Iceland was ravaged and annihilated."

Americans Turn Right On Reds

by Robert Jay March

After months of demeaning comments about the Tea Party movement, the so-called "Democratic" Party, which is anything but democratic, is now quaking in it's Manolo Blahnik boots. Having tried to force-feed the takeover of the American Health Care system to the American public over it's vociferous objections, saying "Let's win it for Teddy," it is ironic that their wake-up call came in the form of the loss of the late Senator Kennedy's Senate seat to an opponent of that very bill. Obama's knee-jerk response, true to form, was to blame the loss on eight years of George W. Bush.

After a few days to reflect and allow the humiliation and repudiation to penetrate that thick noggin of his, Obama was interviewed by Dianne Sawyer, who asked him if one term was enough. The question was shocking enough in and of itself, in that it was only a year ago that Obama was proclaimed as our saviour, the demi-deity who would solve all problems (hosanna in the highest and praise be to Barry). Obama chuckled nervously, and replied "I'd rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president."

Actually, he fails on all counts. One, he's not legally President, per Article II Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution. Two, in play-acting the role to the most receptive audience any politician has ever had, he's blown it so badly that, even in Germany, the press is saying "Bid fairwell to Obama." The scent of political "blood in the water" is so pungent that Democrats in droves are re-considering plans to run for office, and Republicans who had not planned to run are now gearing up to do so.

Those in the Tea Party movement who are celebrating the victory of Scott Brown have good reason the celebrate, but I urge them to keep it in perspective. Brown's victory was a repudiation of the Health Care Bill, not an embrace of limited government per se. Half of the people who voted for Brown believe government should do more to solve problems, which is inimical to the Tea Party philosophy.

Scott Brown is a "progressive" (read: "Big Government") Republican in the mode of John McCain. He is a friend of convenience, a temporary ally whom they will probably find themselves in opposition to down the road. While the enemy of my enemy may be my friend, I'd rather have a true friend at my side when going into battle.

Meanwhile, down at the Elephant Preserve, the elders of the Grand Old Party are scratching their heads, trying to figure out how to co-opt the Tea Party Movement and turn it into an appendage of the Republican Party. Remember how outraged the GOP was when Sarah Palin, Tim Pawlenty and Fred Thompson endorsed Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman in New York's 23rd District Congressional race? The party had picked yet another progressive, Dede Scozzafava, and all the party pros, such as Newt Gingrich, had endorsed her, feeling that party loyalty trumped principle. When it became apparent that Scozzafava has no chance of winning, she withdrew from the race -- and threw her support to the Democrat. So much for party loyalty.

Putting party over principle will leave us forever condemned to whip-sawing from left to right, as every urge to "throw the rascals out" leaves us with only the other set of rascals to vote for. Don't be a Democrat. Don't be a Republican. Don't align yourself with any political party. Be a LOCist.

What's a LOCist? Quoting from my Editorial of April 5, 2008 edition of MarchReport.com, brilliant as it was,

"It's a Party of one, of which I am Party Chairman. It is based on the 1960s theory of television programming put forth by CBS 'master scheduler' Mike Dann and Paul Klien of NBC, called the "LOP" or "Least Objectionable Program" theory. In those days, there were just the 3 major networks (or 2 plus ABC, if you're really honest) and programming was based on the concept of the Mass Audience. Nowadays, with network audiences down to about 50% from a high of 90%, the LOP theory no longer works.

"HOWEVER, when it comes to Politics, there are only 2 'channels': Democratic and Republican; all the other parties are the equivalent of local stations, some with and some without network affiliations. Each major party needs MASS NUMBERS, so they try to nominate the Candidate that is Least Objectionable to their base. That's why, in primary season, Democrats run to the Left and Republicans to the Right, but in the General Elections, both move towards the perceived center. Party loyalists always vote for their party's candidate; the rest of us vote for the Least Objectionable Candidate (LOC). The candidate perceived by most voters to be Least Objectionable wins. Yay! Tapioca pudding for everyone!"

Given that Government is a necessary evil (the operative word being evil), there will always be politicians. People who succeed in politics are people who lie well enough to get a plurality of voters to put them in office. While some may get into politics initially to serve the public, those who survive have that youthful zeal burned out of them. Much as a sword-maker pounds and heats his steel into submission, forming the blade he intended to form, so each party pounds their new blood into a pulp useful only for feeding the machine.

Until such time as our "tea" is steeped strongly enough that we can field candidates that stand on principle, rather than stand for party loyalty over integrity, we must vote for the Least Objectionable Candidate, regardless of what party they are affiliated with. Then, we must hold their feet to the fire, constantly reminding them of how they got elected in the first place, and how fleeting their jobs can be.

 Buffalo N.Y.'S "Temporary" Casino Expands Again

WKBW-TV

Casino gambling is growing in downtown Buffalo at the same time the Seneca Nation's internet cigarettes sales are taking a hit. Seneca Gaming Corporation officials cut the ribbon for the grand opening of a $9 million expansion of their temporary casino in downtown Buffalo on Tuesday. Gaming officials call the casino one of the most popular entertainment destinations in the city and say it attracted more than half-a-million gamblers last year. A separate issue threatening a prime Seneca Nation revenue source is the PACT act. PACT stands for Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking, and the U.S. Senate unanimously passed the bill last week. It has to be reconciled with the House version of the bill before it goes to Barack Obama to be signed into law. The legislation would prevent the U.S. Postal Service from delivering cigarettes. ...

 After Three Suspected Suicides, A Shaken Cornell Reaches Out

Trip Gabriel -- New York Times

The university is on high alert about the mental health of its students after the apparent suicides of three of them in less than a month in the deep gorges rending the campus. The deaths, two on successive days last week, have cast a pall over the university and revived talk of Cornell's reputation -- unsupported, say officials -- as a high-stress "suicide school." On Thursday, the body of a sophomore engineering student, William Sinclair, of Chevy Chase, Md., was recovered from the rugged gorge more than 70 feet below the Thurston Avenue Bridge, where the fierce waters of Fall Creek sluice through a narrow corridor. The body of Bradley Ginsburg, a freshman from Boca Raton, Fla., was found in the same vicinity on Feb. 17. Then on Friday, Matthew Zika, a junior engineering student from Lafayette, Ind., died when he dropped from a suspension foot bridge a short distance downstream, according to the university. Rescue workers have yet to recover his body in the rain-swollen creek. ...

Donna Simpson, a 42-year-old mom from New Jersey, already holds the Guinness World Record as the world's biggest mother. She was a whopping 520 pounds when she gave birth to daughter Jacqueline three years ago, becoming the largest woman to give birth. Now, clearly there's a difference between someone genetically predisposed to being large, as opposed someone willfully eating herself toward the title or heaviest woman alive. Which is exactly what Donna Simpson is doing, with a target of 1,000 pounds. Currently she weighs somewhere in the neighborhood of 600 pounds. ...

 Why Are Irish Prime Ministers Always In Washington On St. Patrick's Day?

Annie Lowrey -- Foreign Policy

It is a tradition, though not a particularly old one. Since the mid-20th century, U.S. presidents have sent warm words to Ireland on St. Patrick's Day. In 1937, for instance, Franklin D. Roosevelt delivered a radio broadcast from Warm Springs, Georgia, in honor of the holiday: "Good old St. Patrick, and may he ever be with us, was the epitome of unselfishness!" And in 1969, Richard Nixon welcomed the ambassador from Ireland into the White House and received the now-traditional Waterford crystal bowl filled with clover. The taoiseach's [head of government] White House visit on St. Patrick's Day became a permanent fixture during the tenure of Bill Clinton, for whom peace talks were a major foreign-policy priority. He used the glitzy events as a chance to bring both sides together: In 1995, he famously got the Irish nationalist Gerry Adams and Ulster loyalist leader Gary McMichael (whose father died at the hands of the IRA) in the same room, along with Republic of Ireland Prime Minister John Bruton. Doing so helped pave the way to the 1998 peace agreement. During Clinton's presidency as well, the term "shamrock ceremony" came into use in the United States. ...

Two US Congressmen sent a letter to the White House Tuesday calling on the Obama administration to tone down its attacks on Israel as several members released statements stressing the importance of American-Israeli ties. "We urge your administration to refrain from further public criticism of Israel," Mark Kirk (Rep.-Illinois) and Christopher Carney (Dem.-Pennsylvania) wrote to US President Barack Obama. "While the recent controversy is regrettable, it should not overshadow the importance of the US-Israel alliance," they said. "A zoning dispute over 143 acres of Jewish land in Israel's capital city should not eclipse the growing threat we face from Iran." ...

 German Bishops Call For End To Celibacy Mandate

Andrew Bowen -- Deutsche Welle (DE)

Few, if any, Catholic priests or bishops are likely to say their church's vow of celibacy for priests is a direct cause of child sexual abuse. Yet the most recent wave of abuse allegations across Germany and Europe has reignited an ongoing debate in the Church over whether priests should be allowed to marry. Hamburg Bishop Hans-Jochen Jaschke told the daily newspaper Hamburger Abendblatt on Saturday that coexistence between celibate and married priests should be possible. He added that while he saw no direct connection between the large number of abuse cases and priest celibacy, "the celibate lifestyle can attract people who have an abnormal sexuality." The president of the Central Committee of German Catholics, Alois Glueck, also spoke out for dialogue on reforming the celibacy requirement. ...

 Vatican Official Says Rising Number Of Sexual Abuse Cases Could Overload Staff

Rachel Donadio -- New York Times

As hundreds of new allegations of sexual abuse surface in the German church alone, a top Vatican official acknowledged Tuesday that, with only 10 people handling such cases, his office might not be adequate for the task. But the official, Msgr. Charles J. Scicluna, who is effectively the Vatican's internal prosecutor, said the church was working to bring more "transparency" to the delicate and emotional process of settling allegations of abuse by priests that have severely damaged the church's moral standing. ...

YEST Jerusalem Clashes Erupt After Hamas Declares 'Day Of Rage'

Liel Kyzer, Jack Khoury and Fadi Eyadat -- Haaretz (IZ)

Dozens of Palestinians clashed with Israeli police in East Jerusalem on Tuesday on a "day of rage" Hamas declared to protest Israel's consecration of an ancient synagogue in the city one day earlier. Palestinians hurled stones at police and burned tires and trash bins in several areas of East Jerusalem, which Israel captured along with the West Bank during the 1967 Six-Day War. Police responded with tear gas and fired rubber bullets, witnesses said. Some 40 Palestinians were treated at East Jerusalem hospitals for minor injuries, medical officials said. Jerusalem police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby says police fired stun grenades to disperse dozens of protesters at one site. He said village elders helped end protests at another site. ...

 Fed Unconvinced Recovery Strong Enough To Warrant Higher Rates

Scott Lanman -- Bloomberg News

Federal Reserve officials signaled the U.S. recovery isn't strong enough to stoke inflation, reduce unemployment quickly or justify an end to record-low interest rates. Central bankers yesterday retained a pledge to keep their benchmark rate "exceptionally low" for an "extended period," one year after first using the phrase. While the economy is improving, employers are still reluctant to hire, homebuilding is "depressed" and inflation will be "subdued for some time," the Federal Open Market Committee said in a statement after meeting in Washington. Chairman Ben S. Bernanke and his colleagues are waiting for sustained increases in employment before starting to exit a record expansion of credit. ...

YEST Google's China Internet License May Expire This Month

Mark Lee -- Bloomberg News

Licenses for Chinese Internet service providers are "generally up for renewal this month," Jessica Powell, a Tokyo-based spokeswoman at Google, said by phone today. The owner of the world's most-popular search engine in January said it may exit China pending, talks with the government on a plan to stop censoring search results in its Google.cn site, after claiming it was targeted by cyber attacks from within the country. Failure to end the dispute may hand more sales to rivals including Baidu Inc. in the world's biggest Internet market. Google should continue to abide by Chinese laws, which the company agreed to do when it initially started services in the nation, Yao Jian, spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, said today at a press conference, without saying if the company needs to renew its license. Google's advertisers in China are being advised to switch to rivals including Baidu and business partners are exploring alternatives as speculation grows the Mountain View, California- based company will shut its main operations in the country. An outcome in Google's talks with Chinese authorities is expected "soon," Chief Executive Officer Eric Schmidt said last week. ...

Ms. Hunter said: "I didn't feel like I could ever speak until he did that. Because, had I spoken, I would have emasculated him. And I could not emasculate him.

The cause was heart disease, said his daughter, Susan. Dr. Patz, a former director of the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins University, also did pioneering research, using lasers, that has been credited with preserving the sight of adults with common conditions that cause blindness.

He told his agent to tell David and Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams, the director-producers, to find themselves a comedian. He relented when the Zucker brothers explained that the secret of their spoof would be the deadpan behavior of the cast; they didn't want a comedian, they wanted the Peter Graves of "Fury" and "Mission: Impossible." ...

Jonathan Leake -- London Times (UK)

The doubts of Christy and a number of other researchers focus on the thousands of weather stations around the world, which have been used to collect temperature data over the past 150 years. These stations, they believe, have been seriously compromised by factors such as urbanisation, changes in land use and, in many cases, being moved from site to site. John Christy, professor of atmospheric science at the University of Alabama in Huntsville, a former lead author on the IPCC, has published research papers looking at these effects in three different regions: east Africa, and the American states of California and Alabama. "The story is the same for each one," he said. "The popular data sets show a lot of warming but the apparent temperature rise was actually caused by local factors affecting the weather stations, such as land development." ...

Washington Post

As the House moves toward a vote on health-care legislation, one possible route to passage involves a procedural measure called a "self-executing rule," or "deem and pass." It would allow House members to pass the Senate's bill by voting not on the measure itself, but rather a fixes package. "It's more insider and process-oriented than most people want to know," Pelosi said in a roundtable discussion with bloggers Monday.

 Democrats Make Final Pitch To Moderates On Health Bill

Gerald F. Seib -- Wall Street Journal

The arguments for voting no on final passage of the health overhaul are pretty obvious. Republicans are pounding away in opposition, to great effect. A compilation of the latest health-care polling data on the Web site Realclearpolitics.com shows Americans opposing it by an average of 48.9% to 41.3%. The drift against the legislation has come mostly from the kind of centrist, independent voters that you, as a moderate Democrat, depend on for your political life. So what arguments can Democratic leaders muster to push back? Conversations with several key Democrats suggest a handful of the closing arguments they will make, some about policy and some about politics. ...

YEST House Democrats Tried To Approve The Healthcare Package Without Actually Voting For It

David Lightman -- McClatchy News Service

Under the plan, the House of Representatives would approve the Senate bill by "deeming" it to have passed as part of a separate measure governing the rules of a House debate on a follow-up healthcare measure. That follow-up legislation would be designed to change certain controversial portions of the Senate-passed version, a path more palatable to House Democrats who fear that voting for the Senate bill could backfire against them in elections this fall. The maneuver would enable House members to avoid casting a politically risky vote on the Senate package and to say they voted only for the more popular follow-up measure. In 1998, the Supreme Court ruled that once one house of Congress approves an "exact text," the other house must pass "precisely the same text" before the president can sign it into law. ...

As a candidate for president, Sen. Barack Obama rejected "the politics of fear." Well, he won. So now he's playing the fear card to the hilt. Premiums will go up if insurers have to cover more sick people. Costs will go up if the government subsidizes more Americans.

Democrats are in a tight spot on health-care reform.

Those deals won the support of recalcitrant senators. But now they're now the biggest obstacle Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi face as they make their final health-care push. These deals helped shift public opinion against health-care legislation. The picture of cash traded for votes has created a whiff of corruption and undermined the credibility of the entire health-care effort. ...

YEST U.S. Intelligence Planned To Destroy Whistle Blower Website

Julian Assange -- WikiLeaks

PDF File This document is a classifed (SECRET/NOFORN) 32 page U.S. counterintelligence investigation into WikiLeaks. "The possibility that current employees or moles within DoD or elsewhere in the U.S. government are providing sensitive or classified information to Wikileaks.org cannot be ruled out." It concocts a plan to fatally marginalize the organization. Since WikiLeaks uses "trust as a center of gravity by protecting the anonymity and identity of the insiders, leakers or whisteblowers," the report recommends "The identification, exposure, termination of employment, criminal prosecution, legal action against current or former insiders, leakers, or whistlblowers could potentially damage or destroy this center of gravity and deter others considering similar actions from using the Wikileaks.org Web site." As an odd justificaton for the plan, the report claims that "Several foreign countries including China, Israel, North Kora, Russia, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe have denounced or blocked access to the Wikileaks.org website."
    Thanks to Julian Assange, Editor of WikiLeaks, for bringing this story to our attention. ...

YEST Doctor Who's Flame-Haired New Assistant Karen Gillan Makes Her Debut ... As A Cover Girl

Liz Thomas -- Daily Mail (UK)

This time last year she was an unknown jobbing actress and model. Today new Doctor Who companion Karen Gillan is every inch the modern cover girl. The 22-year-old, who follows in the footsteps of stars such as Billie Piper and Catherine Tate as the Doctor's assistant, is fast becoming a fashion favorite thanks to her long legs and striking good looks. The next series of Doctor Who starts next month with 27-year-old Matt Smith replacing David Tennant as the Time Lord, while Miss Gillan plays his sidekick, Amy Pond. ...

 The Movie Studios' Big 3d Scam

Alexander Murphy -- Gizmodo

The good Avatar 3D experience happened because James Cameron is a technically savvy director, and thus the 3D aspect of Avatar was technically well executed. When done right it allows the viewer to more seamlessly enjoy a 3D film. Done poorly and all it does is get in the way. The problem is it's expensive and difficult to do it right. Double the camera gear means double the footage and often doubling the camera crew. It also doubles much of the visual effects work as you have to render everything twice. But what you get is the real thing, a true stereo view of everything in the frame. The process of making a movie 3D after it was shot is a complicated and time consuming process but can be somewhat convincing. The problem is it will never reflect the same results as if you were filming using two cameras, simultaneously, from slightly different perspectives. Endless rotoscoping provides layers that can be separated to fake a different perspective for the second eye, but that's what it looks like, layers. So yes, you can push things away and pull things forward and enhance the depth, but the content within each layer has no depth. We use our eyes everyday and whether you know the geek stuff or not it's just not what we are used to seeing. The stereo technicians involved in bringing the images to us in 3D in the best possible way have their hands tied in some ways, they're not often working with two true perspectives. ...

 'South Park' 14th Season Opener Spoofs Tiger Woods

Richard Huff -- New York Daily News

Cartman and Woods


Woods is the latest in a long, long line of big-name celebrities to be poked fun of on "South Park" since it launched in 1997. Indeed, the celebrity appearance has become a staple of the show, whether the stars participate or not. "The fact that it is a pretty smart show, the fact it is a popular show, and the fact it is a hip show means they can go pretty far with some of their subjects and not worry about getting sued," said Syracuse University Prof. Robert Thompson. ...

 The Smoking Gun On Glenn Beck And Obama's Birth Certificate

Peter Boyles Show -- KHOW Radio

Audio In an interview with Denver radio talk show host Peter Boyles, Glenn Beck was asked about Obama's eligibility for the office of President. Beck, who has engaged in Saul Alinsky-style mockery of those of us who have investigated it seriously, replied "I haven't looked into it at all ... It doesn't matter to me." Which is just what Robert Jay March said about Beck in his last podcast on Beck's credibility... or lack thereof. Listen to the exchange here. Duration: 9 minutes and 25 seconds. ...

Woman Claims She Helped Obama Campaign Staffer Divorah Adler Create Obama's Fake Birth Certificate

Citizen Wells

"My name is Chanise Foxx. I work at a office supply store in Kenwood, IL. After nearly 3 years of silence and death threats to me and my family to stay quiet, I am compelled to come forward and tell the world my secret. I helped Obama campaign staffer Divorah Adler create a fake birth certificate for use in the famous Fact Check story to prove the world of Obama's birth in the 2008 election. Divorah approached me in early 2007 and held onto the birth certificate until she released it in August 2008." ...

Face-To-Face With The Young, Marxist Obama

John C. Drew, Ph.D. -- NewsReal

Video AND TEXT. John C. Drew, Ph.D.: "My most vivid memory of my time visiting with Obama was the way he strongly argued a rather simple-minded version of Marxist theory. I remember he was passionate about his point of view. As I remember, he was articulating the same Marxist theory taught by various professors at Occidental College. Based on my more detailed studies at Cornell, I remember I made a strong argument that his Marxist ideas were not in line with contemporary reality -- particularly the practical experience of Western Europe." ...

Obama Tells Another Nativity Fib

Jerome R. Corsi -- World Net Daily

Official documents catch Barack Obama in another apparent misrepresentation of his life story, this time challenging a claim made during his campaign that his father was part of a JFK-era airlift to bring Kenyan students to the U.S. to study in American universities. Research indicates Barack Obama Sr. was not brought to Hawaii in 1959 by any airlift of Kenyan students organized by baseball great Jackie Robinson, John F. Kennedy or the African-American Students Foundation, the AASF. Nor was Barack Obama Sr. on any of the three subsequently chartered airplanes in what became known as the "second airlift" organized by Kenyan Luo politician Tom Mboya in 1960 after the Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. Foundation contributed $100,000 to AASF. Moreover, after a thorough search of the Jackie Robinson papers at the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress, WND can find no mention of Barack Obama Sr. in the files on deposit, either as an applicant or candidate for an airlift from Kenya to study in the U.S. ...

Another Look At Obama's Origins

Jack Cashill -- American Thinker

The murky circumstances of Obama's birth invite attempts to make the known facts fit together. A cryptic poem by the 19-year old Obama called "Pop," relates an encounter between Obama and a man most reviewers presume to be Obama's maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham. Dunham would have been in his early 60's at the time. The Obama of the poem is cynical, even a little bitter. He makes several allusions to the fact that he and the old man look and even smell alike, a fact that strikes Obama as more ironic than reassuring. Don Wilkie, a Michigan entrepreneur, says "I think the poem zeros in on that poignant moment when Obama was told that his grandfather was in reality his father." Wilkie concedes his theory is "off-the-wall," but he also offers photographic evidence to show that Obama much more closely resembles Dunham -- especially the telltale ears --than he does Barack Obama, Sr. ...

On a forum page at The Hill newspaper, one commenter wrote that the president has only himself to blame for the questions. "Personally I am no birther ... but I am curious as to why Obama continues to beat on this issue ... is it a political ploy by his handlers to continue to use this as a divisive issue? To try and embarrass a certain segment of the population? And if not, why doesn't he just provide the certificate and end all the speculation for the conspirators once and for all? Obama has certainly been a little less than forthcoming on his grades, his Harvard review publications and many other accomplishments" ...

Anti-Tea-Party Ads Tied To Obama Eligibility

Chelsea Schilling -- World Net Daily

Democrat operatives, using the same address for an attorney who represented the Democratic National Committee in an eligibility lawsuit against Barack Obama, have launched an ad campaign and website called TheTeaPartyIsOver.org to "prevent the tea party's dangerous ideas from gaining legislative traction." In the wake of Scott Brown's dramatic victory for the U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts, the energized national tea-party movement is targeting lawmakers deemed unresponsive to Americans. The anti-tea party website comes as Illinois will have its first-in-the-nation primaries Tuesday. The American Public Policy Committee shares an identical suite address with the Alliance for North Carolina; the Patriot Majority; and Sandler, Reiff & Young PC - the law firm of Joseph Sandler, general counsel to the Democratic National Committee who filed a motion to dismiss Philip Berg's eligibility lawsuit against Obama and the DNC. Sandler is also former counsel to both MoveOn.org and the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Muslim group named an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorist-finance case in U.S. history. ...

The 2010 Democratic 'Birther' Strategy

Zach Jones -- Australia.to

Notwithstanding the eligibility issue's complexity, when Obama's so-called 'birth certificate' appeared online, media supporters quickly realized it would likely appear farfetched to the casual reader that the document could mean anything other than absolute proof that Obama was born in Hawaii. As such, Obama's support in the media seized upon the possibility that they could easily ignore the actual parameters of the issue and shape the news to redefine the 'eligibility' issue to mean: if Obama has a Hawaiian Birth Certificate, of course he is a 'citizen', and of course, this equals Obama is eligible to be President. Voila, the media found their vehicle to infer that anyone questioning Obama's eligibility to serve as President of the United States was a complete and utter fool. Because, most people pay little attention to and/or fail to verify the details of news stories (most barely read past the headlines), the media has been able to pull off their slight of hand. And as the media is well aware, once people commit to a version of the facts they are reluctant to revisit an issue. Especially, given that many of the normal players (Hillary, Republicans, and the courts) for their own reasons have been reluctant to touch this story, it makes the casual observer's commitment to his or her position even stronger. Thus, the term 'birther' has become an effective tool for the media and politicians to use to ridicule their opponents. ...

Aaron Klein -- World Net Daily

Rev. Jim Wallis, a member of Barack Obama's "faith council" who is described as a spiritual adviser to the president, is a socialist activist who has championed communist causes and previously labeled the U.S. "the great captor and destroyer of human life." Wallis is a long time socialist advocate and founder of a far-left magazine, Sojourners, that has championed communist causes. As a theology student, Wallis founded an anti-capitalism magazine called the Post-American, which identified wealth redistribution and government-managed economies as the keys to achieving "social justice." ...

Obama Throws Democrat Congressman And His Brother To The Wolves

Wes Vernon -- Renew America

Barack Hussein Obama has just presented us with more evidence that his agenda and his ego are so important that he is more than willing to sacrifice his own political allies in order to make the history books on passing his signature Health "Care" bill. He doesn't care if his party goes under in the 2010 midterm elections. We already knew that. He and his minions are so power-mad and locked into their Marxist ideology and Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals," that they are willing to go down to defeat at the polls - confident that the American people will fall in love with their plot to put themselves between you and your doctor. Thereafter -- according to their playbook -- once they have you addicted to the new entitlement, they can then beat Republicans over the head every election year with their pious claims that anyone who opposes their plot to increase handouts from the program wants to toss seniors, the sick, and the poor out into the snow. They actually think you're stupid. ...

John Lillpop -- Canada Free Press (CA)

Those who voted for Barack Obama cannot claim that they were not forewarned. In his own words, The One wrote of skirmishes with illegal drugs during his misspent youth. It's all there in The Audacity of Hope. Clearly, this is a man of substance ... illegal no-nos, that is. Despite his past, with a major assist from the mainstream media and other leftist institutions and $750 million dollars in the bank, Barack Obama managed to recast his image for the 2008 elections. Just in time, he became as clean a a whistle, the ideal role model for children all over the world to emulate. ...

Obama's Done Everything Wrong

Mort Zuckerman -- Daily Beast

Obama punted on the economy and reversed the fortunes of the Democrats in 365 days. He's misjudged the character of the country in his whole approach. There's the saying, "It's the economy, stupid." He didn't get it. He was determined somehow or other to adopt a whole new agenda. He didn't address the main issue. This health-care plan is going to be a fiscal disaster for the country. Most of the country wanted to deal with costs, not expansion of coverage. This is going to raise costs dramatically. ...

Obama's Newest Idea: Simply Outlaw Reality

Charles Hurt -- New York Post

After months of swearing that his health legislation would lower the skyrocketing costs of insurance premiums, Obama finally acknowledged that actually it would not. So, instead, he has included a new provision that can simply outlaw premium increases his administration deems "unreasonable and unjustified." Why create a whole new federal law to cap premium hikes? There is only one reason: Even this White House can no longer keep up the charade. Perhaps even more disturbing than Obama's back-door admission here is his plan for fixing it. The Democratic health-care bill actually causes insurance premiums to rise: well, then, we'll just pass a law! Let's pass a law to outlaw reality! ...

 Obama's Weak Response To Airliner Attack Increases Threat To U.S.

Jim Meyers -- NewsMax

Influential journalist Arnaud de Borchgrave says that the Obama administration is "trying to make the best of a very bad situation" by downplaying the security lapses that led to a Nigerian sneaking an explosive device aboard a plane. De Borchgrave also warned about the threat posed by Pakistanis who are British citizens and can enter the U.S. without a visa; and he pointed to a "growing convergence" between the ambitions of Iran and al-Qaida in the Middle East. Asked about the Obama administration's response to Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a 23-year-old Nigerian Muslim who spent time in Yemen and allegedly attempted to detonate an explosive device aboard a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day, de Borchgrave said, "I think it's been very weak." ...

March Report Podcast


News and Opinion Presented by Robert Jay March

21:39. Recorded
Monday, January 11, 2010
TOPICS DISCUSSED:

Glenn Beck:
The Verdict Is In

On the January 4, 2010 edition of Glenn Beck's Radio Program, Beck mocked the so-called "birthers": those of us who believe, and have submitted extensive evidence to prove, that Barack Obama is not legally qualified to serve as President of The United States, per Article II Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution: "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President." March discusses Beck's remarks, why he made them, and what Beck's afraid of. During his last podcast, Robert Jay March asked, "Is Glenn Beck a Hero or a Coward?" The verdict is now in.


Britt Hume's Remarks on Tiger Woods and Buddhism.
On the January 3, 2010 edition of Fox News Sunday, Hume said this: "the extent to which [Tiger] can recover seems to me depends on his faith. He's said to be a Buddhist. I don't think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith." Robert Jay March, a practicing Buddhist for 38 years, and a devout Catholic before that, corrects Hume's misunderstanding of the Buddhist faith, explaining how that "kind of forgiveness and redemption" is implicit in the Buddhism, and the personal tragedy in Hume's life that account for his statement.

Rants & Raves from Our Readers

A reader who wishes to remain anonymous sent in this criticism:

Mr. March, You linked the video of Hillary Clinton having what has been referred to as an 'outburst' on your site, yet, you did not explain the context. You omitted the truth and presented the situation as another crazy Clinton moment. You not only misportrayed the situation, you lost an opportunity to share/address the plight of women who have no rights in their country. I have been a long time reader of your March Report and have shared the Report with many people. I wrote to you addressing the Clinton video and have seen no retraction or explanation. I won't be referring anyone to this page anymore. My belief and trust that you maintain objectivity and research all sides has been permanently altered recently. Consevative or not, you have always seemed to work at being fair and true to journalism. I now am seeing you differently.

Robert Jay March Responds:

This reader has mischaracterized the report. In fact, we went out of way to add clarity to the situation. The copy proved by WMAQ-TV, the televsion station which provide the report through one of our syndicators, said "A Congolese university student seems to presume that Bill Clinton's opinion is more important than the current Secretary of State's." In order to portray the situation accurately, we rewrote the copy to read as follows (emphasis added): "As a result of a translator's error, a Congolese university student appears to presume that Bill Clinton's opinion is more important than the current Secretary of State's. Hillary explodes, and hilarity ensues. Oh, those wacky, wacky Clintons." That was all the information that was available on August 11, 2009, when we ran the story. Witty retort aside, we went out of our way to clarify the report. Further details from the State Department and the White House did not become available until the following day.

Another reader, who wish to be referred to by the nom de plume "Needles," has an unusual take on the Certifi-Gate crisis:

The birthers need to step back and consider the consequences of their actions. If Mr. Obama were to be declared ineligible, there are several possible outcomes. They could remove him from office and install Joe Biden as President. The argument would be made that if Mr. Obama was not eligible to run for President, then the ticket is invalid as well and Joe Biden should not be Vice President. The next person in the order of succession would be Speaker of the House; Nancy Pelosi. Because no eligible candidate received a majority of electoral votes, the selection of the President could be thrown into the House. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, would then be king-maker. The choices are Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi or someone Nancy Pelosi picks. Maybe it is best to leave the birth certificate matter alone.

Robert Jay March Responds:

Mr. Obama being declared ineligible does not legally invalidate Biden's election, provided he is qualified. Even if it did, the Constitution is too important to ignore; it is all that separates us from tyranny. Regardless of the consequences, if in fact Mr. Obama is ineligible, he must be removed. That said, all we have thus far is the preponderance of evidence leading to a likely conclusion, not conclusive facts. That is why the revelation of the long-form birth certificate is so important.

Finally, a third reader who wish to be referred to by the nom de plume "unihawker," writes:

Dear Mr. March, I was watching TV the other night and they showed a clip of Obama in Kenya during his trip there during the campaign. I am not sure if it was just some Freudian slip or not, but he said as he was waiving to the people greeting him, "Thank you, it is great to be back home". My question was, If he was not born in that country why would he call it home?

Robert Jay March Responds:

Good question, for which I have no answer. If this report is correct, it is yet another contribution to the preponderance of evidence that implies Mr. Obama is ineligible. A copy of the long form birth certificate would cost Mr. Obama $12; thus far he has spent $1.3 Million to avoid producing it. As in any investigation, follow the money: in this case, what money is being spent on to conceal.
