Obama Owned NBC Will Not Dump its President, Steve Capus

Editgate: Three Strikes and NBC’s Steve Capus Should Be Out.

John Nolte over at Breitbart  outlines three major instances of media malpractice by NBC,  designed to Wag the Race War for the Left.

If we’re distracted by racial polarization, we might pay less attention to the looming spectre of Obamacare,  the destruction of our economy, and the mismanagement of forieign policy which will soon ignite World War III.

Obama ‘owns’ Jeffrey Immelt,  CEO of GE,  which still owns 49% of NBC.    President of CE, Steve Capus, has overseen a good deal of media abuse during his tenure, which began in 2005,  which, in earlier  times could have cost him his job.

NBC’s latest attempt to start a race war involved purposefully editing the Zimmerman 911 tape (click this)  to present  a racist, wanna-be cop, pursuing a  Black kid.   NBC is still claiming that the editing wasn’t with this intent,  but listening to the cut version vs the original version leaves zero room for doubt.

George Zimmerman has to hide, in fear for his life.  NBC has supposedly fired the senior producer, who edited the tape, but will not name him.   He is free to continue his malpractice elsewhere.

Contessa Brewer remains in place after chopping the head off of a gun toting individual photographed at a Tea Party event.   This is because NBC did not want anyone to know that he was a Black Man.  It wouldn’t fit the Brewer’s narrative  that we’re all a bunch of racist, white homophobes,  who could constitute  threat to Obama’s life.

NBC’s Ed Schultz similarly edited a speech by Rick Perry about the Black Cloud of 14-16 trillion dollars debt, hanging over America.  He chopped out the words about debt on either side of the “Black Cloud” words,  and then stated that Perry was talking about Obama.    Race baiter,  (and misogynist)  Ed Schultz,  still retains his job.

Hat’s off to John Nolte for his triple header — check it out if you want to see  additional evidence of editorial malpractice.  

Obama’s Army, AFL-CIO Division, Takes Hostages in Longview, Washington

Longshoremen storm Wash. state port, damage RR – Yahoo! News.

An estimated 500 longshoremen took six security guards hostage, dumped grain cargo, and cut brake lines of railroad cars at the Port of Longview on Thursday morning.

These workers belong to the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, part of the AFL-CIO, who’s boss, Richard Trumka was invited to attend Obama’s speech on Thursday night.

Some of the protesters are saying that this is only the start of their violent tactics. This action of Thursday morning is in defiance of a federal restraining order against union after previous accusations of assaults and death threats.

Of course the vandalism and taking of hostages is illegal in its own right, but no state or federal reprisals against Obama’s Union Army is expected.

We are expecting Obama’s Army to be present at election polling places in 2012, intimidating voters, also with no intervention from the government.

Do not forget that the AFL-CIO leader sat with the first lady and corporate crony Jeffrey Immelt during the Obama speech on Thursday night after the violent hostage taking and illegal actions of his longshoremen in Washington.

Obama’s Man, Immelt says Businesses Have to Hire

~ Pharmer

Immelt to jobs summit: Businesses need to do more – Jul. 11, 2011.

What this disgusting creature, Jeffrey Immelt, head of GE, and of Obama’s council on jobs and competitiveness,  fails to realize is that his situation is not like that of other companies.

Because of GE’s most favored position with the US government, and with China,  it has a huge advantage over all other businesses.

GE does not have to pay taxes on its U.S. profits.   It has always been able to avoid most taxes paid by other businesses.

For Immelt to demand the tax paying businesses hire more workers while facing economic  and health care uncertainty is an extreme joke.

G.E.’s Strategies Let It Avoid Taxes Altogether – NYTimes.com.

Jeffrey Immelt has a special position as Obama’s Liaison to the Business Community, and as Chairman of the President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness.

Immelt’s Company, General Electric is numero uno among U.S. corporations in Tax Avoidance.  Their net payout on (5 billion in profit) to the IRS is Zero.

The company has managed to balance it’s financial statements of profit from the U.S. and abroad so as to be paying zero U.S. taxes.

These kinds of strategies are out of reach for normal U.S. taxpayers, and of course we are not serving on Obama’s special committees.  So we do not have most favored Tax Status. Ronald Reagan had noticed such outsized advantages for large corporations and eliminated many loopholes, while drastically lowering the tax rates for everyone.  In succeeding decades  the large entities regained much of their preferential tax advantages.

In the last 8 years, GE has reduced US employment by 20 percent and has increased overseas employment.  Cumulative overseas profits have increased from $15 billion to $92 billion in that period.   Declaring profits in countries with much lower taxes than the U.S. is highly beneficial to the bottom line

Wouldn’t you like to be multinational too?
