John Hanson was our First President
http://www.thehollowearthinsider.com/news/wmview.php?ArtID=4
"George Washington was elected President on February 4th, 1789… eight years, and several presidents later. The Continental Congress was the United States’ first government. And John Hanson was our first President. In an ironic twist there is a letter from General George Washington to newly elected president John Hanson him congratulating on his “appointment to fill the most important Seat in the United States”. *
Of course the die-hard skeptic will think “That’s because Hanson was elected by Congress… but, Washington was the first to be elected by the people”. This is a non-reason and only opens up another can of worms.
There are several instances of Vice Presidents taking over for President’s, but the case that comes to mind is that of Gerald Ford. He wasn’t elected by anyone. Not as President nor Vice President. He was appointed by Richard Nixon to replace Vice President Spiro Agnew.
It’s also interesting to note that after advancing to the presidency following Nixon’s resignation to stop impeachment against himself, Ford gave Nixon a full pardon blocking any criminal charges that might come along. If Hanson doesn’t deserve to head the short list of America’s presidents because he wasn’t elected by the people then it would mean Gerald Ford wasn’t the 38th President.
The fact of the matter is John Hanson, the real first president of the United States has been virtually ignored by historians and educators."

Bush-appointed judge orders wikileaks.org domain off-line
http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks.org_under_injunction
| Excerpt: Wikileaks has six pro-bono attorneys in San Francisco on roster to deal with a legal assault, however Wikileaks was given only hours notice "by email" prior to the hearing. Wikileaks was NOT represented. Wikileaks pre-litigation California council Julie Turner attended the start of hearing in a personal capacity but was then asked to leave the courtroom. ... The order is clearly unconstitutional and exceeds its jurisdiction. Wikileaks will keep on publishing, in-fact, given the level of suppression involved in this case, Wikileaks will step up publication of documents pertaining to illegal or unethical banking practices. ... In order to deal with Chinese censorship, Wikileaks has many backup sites such as wikileaks.be (Belgium) and wikileaks.de (Germany) which remain active. Wikileaks never expected to be using the alternative servers to deal with censorship attacks, from, of all places, the United States. |

From The Raw Story
http://rawstory.com/news/afp/Quarter_of_Brits_think_Churchill_wa_02032008.html
"Britons are losing their grip on reality, according to a poll out Monday which showed that nearly a quarter think Winston Churchill was a myth while the majority reckon Sherlock Holmes was real.
The survey found that 47 percent thought the 12th century English king Richard the Lionheart was a myth.
And 23 percent thought World War II prime minister Churchill was made up. The same percentage thought Crimean War nurse Florence Nightingale did not actually exist.
Three percent thought Charles Dickens, one of Britain's most famous writers, is a work of fiction himself.
Indian political leader Mahatma Gandhi and Battle of Waterloo victor the Duke of Wellington also appeared in the top 10 of people thought to be myths.
Meanwhile, 58 percent thought Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective Holmes actually existed; 33 percent thought the same of W. E. Johns' fictional pilot and adventurer Biggles.
UKTV Gold television surveyed 3,000 people."
