Hellish to the extent the privileged do it, Ken. Like the scrubbing of Dubya's military service record, and nothing can be released without his consent.

Obviously, because of the racial aspect, as the Republicans would have, as usual, been labeled "Racist"..

Sure, a good example. It's very possible that he was able to serve in the Texas National Guard because of political favoritism. He was able to graduate Flight School and serve as a fighter pilot.

What's your point? I don't recall any assertions that Bush falsified any records, nor was ineligible to serve as President. He would have been subject to call-up, like any members of the National Guard. Guard call-ups post Vietnam were one of the problems we fixed, as now Guard units are much more integrated into Force Structure, a lesson we did learn from Vietnam.

It's a little different than Obama, as virtually all aspects of his past have been hidden. Since his ideology is so obvious, I think it's easy to speculate what would be found.

Kind'a like you getting a job as a reporter because of your father...

When I graduated high school, I couldn't get a job on Imperial Oil tankers to see southern US belles or those in the Caribbean, so I walked up two blocks to the Herald and asked if they had any jobs, reporter or anything.

Mr. Weldon, the advertising manager handling jobs, said there was an opening for proofreader to get the hang of daily reporting, and if I worked out after three months there would be a job for me in the newsroom.

My Dad then was 10 years from journalism, a village shopkeeper. No scrubbing: my career was featured article in The Financial Post magazine Impetus under "King Brown: the heroic battles of a bluenose paladin, by Harry Bruce, Feb. 1974."

It was distinguished journalist and author Bruce who wrote "Kingsley Brown, the boy wonder of the pioneer days of CBC news reporting, an international hotshot in the deadly competition of big-time television news coverage." Look it up.

The curious and enthusiastic don't need daddies to get them jobs. Mr. Weldon, an avuncular service club man, did just fine by me.

No doubt because of your ideology. Or, did you hide it at that time? Were you a statist religious sociopath then, or did you get converted by a "fellow traveler" along the way? Was it Frank Marshall Davis? If so, you and Obama are kindred souls.

I can't find the article. I did look on the list of CBC personalities on Wikipedia, but couldn't find your name. Were you a "flash in the pan"? As I recall, I did find a citation a while back that described you as a 'Committed Socialist", which was apt, as sociopathic religious statists go.

I have read about your "Back to Nature" lifestyle, your vineyard, etc. Too bad your sociopathic ideology prevents others from having the financial freedom to do the same thing, but it's all for the "Good of the People". But hey, you deserve it, after all, you think "Happy Thoughts" and are "More Equal" than the masses. Just like any piggy from Animal Farm...

Do you refer to your home as a "Dacha"?

I can't find it either.
Well King surely you would have kept a copy of this article for your own files.
Perhaps you take a picure of it and post it here.

I did find an article by Harry Bruce, pertaining to the CBC lockout of 2005. It's entertaining, and somewhat relevant of why Comrade King would work there. It sounds amazingly like American PBS. Here's an excerpt, from this link:

http://www.friends.ca/news-item/5027

The government, in many respects, is a highly conservative gang of Grits and seems to think the CBC has lost its stature as one of the great public institutions of Canada's 20th century, and degenerated into a nuisance, a left-leaning, artsy-fartsy embarrassment, a mewling nag that endlessly begs for hundreds of millions of dollars.

If the CBC's offering of a whole bunch of reruns, old interviews, out-dated comedy shows, unfamiliar faces, stumblebum voices, stale music and news from Blighty happens to drive away so many listeners and viewers that it might as well vanish from Canada forever, would this government really give a pinch of beaver dung?

When I searched the site a little more, I did find a reference to Comrade King's reporting on two mine disasters...

Comrade King, Have you EVER worked in the private sector? As a J-School grad myself, I'd love to read some of your articles...

List Of Records Obama Refuses To Release

Actual long-form birth certificate (NOT an easily-forged electronic copy of a short-form document that is not even officially accepted in Hawaii)
Passport files
University of Chicago Law School scholarly articles
Harvard Law Review articles
Harvard Law School records
Columbia University records

Columbia University senior thesis, “Soviet Nuclear Disarmament”
Occidental College records, including financial aid that he may have received
Punahou School records, where Mr. Obama attended from the fifth grade until he finished high school

Noelani Elementary School records, where Barack Obama attended kindergarten (according to the Hawaii Department of Education, students must submit a birth certificate to register — but parents may bring a passport or student visa if the child is from a foreign country)
Complete files and schedules of his years as an Illinois state senator from 1997 to 2004
Obama’s client list from during his time in private practice with the Chicago law firm of Davis, Miner, Barnhill and Gallard
Illinois State Bar Association records
Baptism records
Obama/Dunham marriage license
Obama/Dunham divorce documents
Soetoro/Dunham marriage license
Soetero/Dunham Adoption records


The non-issuance of the Occidental College records is especially pertinent. The United States Justice Foundation (USJF) served officials at Occidental College with a subpoena to produce records concerning Barack Obama’s attendance there during the 1980’s, because those records could document whether he was attending as a foreign national. Obama attended Occidental on a Fulbright scholarship — financial aid that is reserved for foreign students.

Here's a video of King's reporting on Civil Rights in the South. It's very good, with him making excellent points about the Constitution. His interview with Dr. Bull is there also.

http://www.cbc.ca/archives/categories/po...egregation.html

I'll reiterate a point about King I've said before, "How did you go from believing in Individual Freedom and Equality to believing in Sociopathic Religious Statism"?
