Sunday, April 3rd open thread: ‘I Want You To’

April 3, 2016

  open-threadHere is the open thread for Sunday, April 3rd. Please feel free to post links to interesting articles and to discuss whatever issues arise during the course of the day. Nothing is off-topic here.

   Last week we covered 9 stories, did you miss any of them? If so there is an easy way to make sure it does not happen again. I understand that all of you are busy and cannot always find the time to check the blog for updates so why not subscribe to America’s Watchtower and receive email updates whenever I write a new post? That is the easiest way to follow the blog to ensure you never miss another post.

  In addition to subscribing you can also follow America’s Watchtower on Facebook and Twitter by clicking the links on the right. But you will get more than that for I often post links to articles I probably will not be writing about so it is a great way to keep up with what is happening.

  The Twitter widget in the sidebar is fully interactive. This widget updates my tweets in real time and allows you to respond to or retweet my tweets right from the blog. It also allows you to tweet me right from America’s Watchtower. How cool is that! If you do not have a Twitter account what better reason do you need to sign up for one!

  Here is Weezer performing “I Want You To” live.

      Afternoon, SDL! Hope you are well! I have been messing with the tv/cable/phone and disconnecting stuff. Need to get another modem/router and take back the rental, that is crap for any distance to get a signal. Will be with only cell phones, no TV and just internet. Might do Magic Jack for a phone in the office, just in case. We might get a second TV other than the big one in the livingroom, but will only be doing Netflix, at least for now. Have not read up on Hulu or Roku yet, but think they are pretty close to Netflix. I am tired of spending money on channels we do not watch and the bill keeps going up.

      That is a very strange song, but kind of soothing, actually.

        If only I could be qualified for these “bennies”! The free phone was shoved down our throats and yes SHOVED, I know there will be some that think otherwise, but it has been a real scam, I know people that have more than one of them, how can that be? Now we have the free internet, certain people are entitled to that as well, of course at OUR expense….I want the free internet!!!!

        From what I have heard Netflix carries all the current programming on TV, you just have to wait before it is available. I could be wrong but if this is true I am sure you will not be missing the TV.

        Hello Lou ! I don’t understand TV anymore, lot of lies and misleading stuff. Trying to shape your mind. But there is History Channel ..Mezzo, well tv that allow you to do stuff while the TV is on.

        About the video, I have a Feeling that people have lost their roots, the pride of their tribe…The song is Nordic in a time or you couldn’t imagine a rape or a lack of respect not ending in pièces…. today if they have been arrested, they are free from the police station back in the street..

        Yes I like To See Western Countries Wake Up, it’s because of our ancesters that we enjoy a certain freedom…

    I find the technical side of legal cases interesting. Judge Napolitano has this on his website.

    The Clinton Investigation Enters a Dangerous Phase

    “The Department of Justice will not reveal to the aides or their lawyers what it knows about the case or what evidence of criminal wrongdoing, if any, it has acquired on each of them. Hence, if they submit to an FBI interview, they will go in “blind.” By going in blind, the aides run the risk of getting caught in a “perjury trap.” Though not under oath, they could be trapped into lying by astute prosecutors and aggressive FBI agents, as it is a crime — the equivalent of perjury — to lie to them or materially mislead them.”

    Oh the mental agony! Do you rat on your friends or did your friends rat on you? They have to go through this drill twice once once with Judicial Watch and then the FBI ( or visa versa)

      Well, those aides knew there might be a price to pay if this was ever brought out in the open….they knew what they were doing. I don’t feel the least bit sorry for them and they deserve more than we know they will get. Flip this to a Republican Administration “issue” and all hell would have broken out years ago. But, this is not the case, so we can hope for the best, but expect that nothing will ever be done about the corruption.

    What is Barack’s long game in this email mess? He appears to have know that Hillary had her at least her own email address. Other Administration Officals used their own email addresses rather then the official .gov email. He also never filled the Inspector General position at the State Department during Hillary’s tenure which allowed for no oversight of the email or Blackberrys. As we know BO and the Clintons hate each other.

    Is this all going play out at the Democrat convention? Is that the reason for the super delegates? Will Hillary and Bill be handed a fait accompli – Hillary is forced out of running. BO also has something or someone that he can use against Bill to silence him. BO wins. Biden or some other flunky is nominated. The Go Along to Get Along party has its rigged brokered convention so they can nominate a patsy that stands no chance.

    I found this to be a interesting read. Terrorism and the U.S. Death Machine
    The bloggerJacob Hornberger writes the following

    “Hey, I have an idea: How about asking the terrorists [ I disagree with this term because it plays into the governments false narrative] themselves about what has motivated them to become radicalized? They would tell you that it’s because of the U.S. death machine in the Middle East and Afghanistan, which has been killing people in that part of the world for decades.”…
    “Let’s see if we can follow the reasoning as to why the terrorists would seek revenge. The U.S. death machine goes abroad and kills people as part of a regime-change operations. There is no remorse for any of the dead. All the matters is the importance of the regime-change operation. No sacrifice in terms of people killed is too high compared to achieving regime change. The dead people have friends, relatives, countrymen, and people who share their religion. Some of them get angry over the deaths of all those people. They decide to retaliate. Some of them, feeling that they lack the armaments and personnel to attack the U.S. military component of the U.S. death machine, attack civilians, no doubt feeling that many of the civilians support their government’s death machine.

        I mentioned this mosque to my husband this morning…he had heard of it and said it was the most costly one that has been built…guess they are doing it on purpose, right? Now, will they also have the call to prayer (the Presidents most favorite tune) 5 times a day and will the locals get tired of it? Maybe they should have stopped the building of it…but since it is close to DC, I am sure the libs had their hand in it being able to pass and be built. They do not want to assimilate into this country, they want to take it over. Sad thing is, most people will let it happen.

        I forgot about Obama calling it the most beautiful sound in the world, or something like that. If you get the chance you should read Mark Steyn’s book “America Alone.” It talks about what the goal of the Muslims in Europe is. And of course America will be next.

    Should Hillary take the perp walk who will the RNC back for the presidency? That would totally screw up their plans to run Romney as their failed candidacy since he just might beat Biden or Moe Ginsberg.

        The content of the video makes up for that image, it does not take away from the message. I do have to admit I was surprised when I saw the image though but I was not offended because I knew that you would not have posted it if there was not a message that needed to be heard.

        Yeah Lou, it’s part of the ‘downing down’ of America that’s been going on for years = toilet humor and de-grading of the human body. Sick perverts laugh and have their jollies now but won’t later. Meanwhile, let’s just be glad that we’re not a part of that cesspool! (Even though the content on the vid was informative – just for the fact they ‘chose’ that as the cover pic, makes me not want to promote them at all! They ‘add’ to the problem and are probably even working for the cesspool group!)

        Music Industry, need Artists and to print PRODUCT, giving a mad name to music in his all, because all those are boring and on a similar sound that pass one to an other.
        Certains Artists are “They Own” and after few note you guess who it is and the music is often outside the Grid, and stand for years to come as “those” ..you forget them easly.

    Cruz told reporters …Trump is wrong that America should retreat from Europe, retreat from NATO, hand [Russian President Vladimir] Putin a major victory and while he’s at it, hand ISIS [Islamic State militants] a major victory,”

    Apparently Cruz is not reading the news and can only repeat the neocon lies.

    Trump has been saying basically:

    “Look, I see NATO as a good thing to have – I look at the Ukraine situation and I say, so Ukraine is a country that affects us far less than it affects other countries in NATO, and yet we are doing all of the lifting, they’re not doing anything. And I say, why is it that Germany is not dealing with NATO on Ukraine? Why is it that other countries that are in the vicinity of the Ukraine not dealing with — why are we always the one that’s leading, potentially the third world war, okay, with Russia? Why are we always the ones that are doing it? And I think the concept of NATO is good, but I do think the United States has to have some help. We are not helped. I’ll give you a better example than that. I mean, we pay billions– hundreds of billions of dollars to supporting other countries that are in theory wealthier than we are.”
