Barbarians Inside Our Gates: Who Makes Your List?

In the spring of 1775, silversmith and patriot Paul Revere rode into the cold night to warn that the British were coming. A century and a half later, America helped defeat Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan — two nations bent on world domination and extinguishing individual liberty.

The world has changed, and the war at home rages. Geographic borders no longer demarcate the saintly from the sinister. Battle lines between good and evil dissipate like ink in a churning ocean.

Look no further than billionaire Donald Trump who wanted to sell out America for better ratings and bigger profits — so says author Jerome Corsi, who has accused Trump’s publicized run for the Republican candidacy as “working with (President Barack) Obama.” The goal of Trump’s gambit was to neutralize the entire Birther controversy.

Corsi says the real truth is in his book Where’s the Birth Certificate? Corsi declared that revelations in his book would mean the Obama Administration “would not survive.” Corsi believes he has evidence that proved the administration has tried to preserve itself using “criminal fraud.”

According to Corsi, Trump engineered the entire birth certificate controversy in order to make the press “go to sleep.” Trump was able to kill two birds with one stone. Not only was Obama exonerated, but candidate Trump smeared the conservative movement just as it was gaining momentum.

Trump’s reward was a $60 million television contract with NBC, owned by General Electric, which has been an enormous backer of Obama. This won’t surprise readers of Personal Liberty Digest™. More than a month ago, Bob Livingston, Ben Crystal and yours truly suggested this Trump card was being played out.

It is deceit like this that makes it harder to know who stands with us and who stands against us.

Trump jumps to joint TOP of Republican polls as he taunts Obama and blames him for rising oil prices

Donald Trump has surged in the polls to become the joint-first candidate when Republicans are asked who they would support for the 2012 presidential nomination.
The big CNN survey rise comes after he continued his bizarre potential campaign by taunting Barack Obama over oil prices, China and saying he’s his ‘worst nightmare’.
Mr Trump - fifth place last month - is now level with Mike Huckabee on 19 per cent and in front of Sarah Palin (12 per cent), Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney (both 11 per cent).
Mr Trump seems to have taken much of his nine per cent rise on March's CNN poll from Mitt Romney, after the former Massachusetts governor fell seven per cent.
But the poll was conducted before Republican heavyweight Mr Romney threw his hat in the ring and entered the 2012 race for the White House on Monday

Mr Trump said the President is ‘very much to blame’ for oil prices going up and believes the U.S. will ‘never, ever recover’ if they continue to rise.
He also said nobody wants to run against him if he stands for Republican presidential candidate, claimed China is ‘absolutely ripping off our country’.
Mr Trump told CNBC that he is concerned about rising oil prices, claiming the liquid is the ‘lifeblood of this country’ and that Mr Obama has no control of the situation.
‘He’s in bed with (OPEC),' Mr Trump said. 'He doesn't speak the way you have to speak to them and it's going to be a very sad day for the U.S. if oil goes up any further.'

The tycoon said he will decide before June whether to run for office, after a separate Wall Street Journal and NBC poll last week put him second behind Mr Romney.
Mr Trump also slammed White House senior advisor David Plouffe for calling his campaign a ‘sideshow’ and saying he has ‘zero chance’ of being hired.
This was a 'nasty statement (but) really very gratifying' as he must be ‘bothering’ Mr Obama on the issues surrounding his birth certificate and China, Mr Trump said.
‘I am bothering on China - China is absolutely ripping off our country, China's taking our jobs, taking our money and loaning it back to us,’ he told CNBC.
He also claims nobody wants to run against him and that Mr Obama is scared of him.

‘I don’t hear them talking about (Tim) Pawlenty or anybody else,’ he told Fox News. ‘They’re talking only about Trump. And I can tell you, I’m their worst nightmare.
‘I am not the person that they want to run against and they know it and I know it.’Donald Trump has surged in the polls to become the joint-first candidate when... more

Trump brings media blitz to NBC, ‘steamrolls’ Meredith Vieira on birther issue

As reports that Meredith Vieira is planning an exit from NBC's "Today Show" swirl, the anchor has sparked controversy over her failure to question a number of unsubstantiated challenges to the U.S. citizenship of President Barack Obama that Donald Trump floated in an interview with Vieira this morning.
Trump--the billionaire real estate tycoon and reality TV figure who is flirting with a 2012 presidential run--again sought to suggest that Obama was not born in the United States. "Birther" activists on the right have circulated the unsubstantiated claim in an effort to depict Obama's presidency as the outgrowth of a shadowy, constitutionally illegitimate conspiracy.
The birther position has been thoroughly debunked, and it hasn't gained traction within the journalistic mainstream. But Trump has nonetheless been on a media blitz in recent weeks promoting it.
When the issue came up on "Today"--which airs on the same network as Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice"--Vieira didn't exactly hold his feet to the fire.
"His grandmother in Kenya said he was born in Kenya and she was there and witnessed the birth," said Trump, reiterating a claim that has been proven false, as Vieira sat by silently. (You can watch the exchange in the clip above.)
Critics took note.
"Trump simply steamrolled over her challenges, for instance, on Hawaii's policy as to what birth documents it makes available," writes Time's James Poniewozik. "But she also let him make the claim that Obama's grandmother said she saw him born in Kenya--an old, and long-debunked, chestnut of birthers that ranks up there with the fake Mombassa birth certificate--without questioning it. So now millions of Today viewers are invited to take it as fact."
A spokeswoman for the "Today Show" did not respond to a request seeking comment on whether Vieira felt that she had adequately pressed Trump on his claims. But judging by how some of her peers in TV news have handled Trump in the same situation, she appears to have failed.
Take, for instance, conservative Fox News host Bill O'Reilly, who had Trump on his prime time show several weeks ago, and was well prepared to spar with his guest on the birther issue.
"There were two announcements the week [Obama] was born [in his native Hawaii] in both Honolulu newspapers saying that he was born. That is impossible to make happen if he had not been born in the hospital," said O'Reilly, incredulously. "What is he, baby Jesus? There was a sophisticated conspiracy to smuggle that baby back into the country?"
Vieira, meanwhile, is said to be ready to abandon her anchor chair at "Today." TV Guide reported Tuesday that the host is expected to leave the show when her contract expires later this year. Items reporting the same development swiftly followed in the Hollywood Reporter and the New York Times.
NBC News pushed back on those reports--and a separate one claiming that Vieira's co-host, Matt Lauer, is also on his way out the door--via the network's own internal news service.
"There seems to be an awful lot of speculation around news anchors these days, and it's not our practice to comment on any of it," the network said in a statement.
