THANK YOU, GOVERNOR

Former Navy SEAL, professional wrestler, and Minnesota governor, Jesse Ventura, recently launched a new television show on the truTV (formerly known as Court TV) cable channel. The first episode debuted on Wednesday, December 2, 2009. And the final episode of this season aired this past Wednesday, January 13, 2010.
Here is the official web site for truTV's Conspiracy Theory:

According to press reports, 1.6 million viewers watched the premiere episode on December 2, which set a record for the network. I was one of those viewers. And I've seen each of this first season's 7 episodes.
Predictably, mainstream critics have universally condemned the series. Linda Stasi of The Washington Times said the show is "Mindless, good fun and a hoot to watch aging action stars still taking action." Robert Lloyd of the Los Angeles Times said, "Whatever truth is out there, it's filtered here through what is arranged more as an adventure series than a documentary."
First of all, let me state up front that I typically disdain "reality" shows. The only ones that are any good are Les Stroud's Survivorman and Bear Grylls' Man vs. Wild (and I really enjoy both of those programs). The rest of the so-called "reality" shows are junk, as far as I'm concerned (okay, I did enjoy watching a few episodes of Ice Road Truckers).
Contrary to the rants of modern critics, however, Ventura's Conspiracy Theory is not "reality" television or "mindless, good fun." It is better investigative reporting than anything I've seen on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN or FOX NEWS in a long, long time.

Obama's Secret Vault - Chuck Norris weighs in on the Interpol debacle
On Glenn Beck's Jan. 7 show, he was rightly puzzled regarding the exact purpose of President Barack Obama's Dec. 16 signing of an executive order "DESIGNATING INTERPOL AS A PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION ENTITLED TO ENJOY CERTAIN PRIVILEGES, EXEMPTIONS, AND IMMUNITIES."Glenn, I agree. But I think I recently have seen behind the veil on the White House's covert mission and mystery with Interpol.
Beck spoke for a host of other government watchdogs when he said on the air: "We've been asking ever since it was signed: Why? Who can tell me what special interest group asked for this? If it were about terror, why not tell us that when he signed it? This Congress attacks our CIA and FBI, but Interpol gets immunity? Why? It makes no sense."

Quotes of the day to think about.
"A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves."
--Edward R. Murrow
"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined."
--Patrick Henry
"The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground."
--Thomas Jefferson
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
--Thomas Jefferson (1802)
