Crossing hairs? SOCOM uses all of them together all the time. Bin Ladens raid should show that. Navy seals, FBI yes they were there, CIA were the eyes on the compound, Airbourne rangers took out the electric in the town. The list goes on. SOCOMs job is to cross the hairs between all the groups. The war on terror uses all these groups together as one.

I'm seeing a lot of pissed off ppl, but not even one single Obama quote.
What exactly is he saying?
“There’s a lot of reasons you can release classified information, a lot of justifiable reasons, but making a movie for political gain isn’t one of them,” Mr. Zinke said.
According to Mr. Zinke, there are currently at least four other anti-Obama groups made up of former elite military operatives: Special Operations Speaks, Veterans for a Strong America, Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund Inc. and his group, Special Operations for America. He said he expects that number to climb. Because active-duty soldiers are barred from engaging in political activity, Mr. Zinke believes it is especially important for retired military personnel to speak up.
“It’s really incumbent upon the retired guys to articulate a message. You look at the approval ratings of the president, Congress is in single-digits, the president is not far behind, and I think Americans still appreciate the credibility of our military,” he said.

I'm not an Obama fan, but it's pretty easy to see through this one.
I wonder if it's the same SuperPAC Sherrif Joe hooked up with.
Are you looking for the days where men can buy the Presidency
with their own funds?
Tell me, name me one politician that is not partial.
Please. Please I am waiting.

Nope. I'm looking for the day when campaigns, and their associated funding, is based promoting ideas and plans, rather than using silly negative videos like this one to try and trick people.
Leaders of the group, the Special Operations OPSEC Education Fund Inc, say it is nonpartisan and unconnected to any political party or presidential campaign

What's really got me concerned is the recent news that China has pulled all their money out of the US stock market.

U.S.-traded Chinese companies faced scrutiny after auditors for several quit and others were accused of accounting irregularities. Concerns about company finances have caused share prices to tumble, costing investors several billion dollars. "Probably all these companies have some questionable accounting, so they may prefer to move out of the U.S., not to come under too much scrutiny," said Marc Faber, managing director of Hong Kong fund management company Marc Faber Ltd.
A financial firm, Muddy Waters Research, accused Focus Media last year of overstating the number of its display panels and questioned acquisitions reported by the company. Focus Media denied the allegations and said independent auditors confirmed the size of its network.
This week, Muddy Waters founder Carson Block said in a statement: "The markets are far better off if a few deep pocketed investors own Focus Media instead of mutual funds and other public shareholders." The group proposing to take the company private includes its chairman, Jason Nanchun Jiang, and private equity firms Carlyle Group, CITIC Capital Partners, CDH Investments and China Everbright Ltd.
In November 2011, Muddy Waters Research reported massive fraud at the company. It alleged that
- the company has been fraudulently overstating the number of screens in its LCD network by approximately 50%,
- has claimed to acquire, write down, and dispose of companies that it never actually purchased,
- has written at least 21 acquisitions down to zero and then given them away for no consideration,
- has been used by insiders as their counterparty in trading in and out of subsidiary Allyes, with several individuals earning a total of at least $70.1 million, while shareholders lost $159.6 million.[1]
Focus denied the allegations.
