Amazon.com, The World’s Largest Online Marketer, And Largest Pornographer To Boot

(BrightCitizen.com)  If you are using Amazon.com to buy things online, you will find that in general they are easy to deal with.  Jeff Bezos has done an amazing job turning this money losing company into a money maker.  However, there is a dark side to the story.

Amazon does not allow customers to turn off pornographic content.  You have to see all the trash.  So you could be searching for sunglasses and all the sudden see a porn flick in your search results.  Somehow we were served up a video described as ‘A Lesbian Romp’.  Finding something we don’t want to see that is offensive is not the best customer service.

Someone contacted Amazon customer service at Amazon via email and asked them where there was a setting to turn off the adult/explicit content.  They response was long and unrelated.  You can skip over that below.

Subject: Your Amazon.com InquiryHello,Thanks for contacting us at Amazon.com and providing us with an opportunity to assist you.

I’m sorry for any inconvenience. I understand your concern regarding searching items on our website.

When you use our search engine to look for items, our system attempts to find the products you’re most likely to be looking for based on the words you entered. Our search methods go beyond simple keyword matching and may also be using information not visible on the search results page, including attributes provided by the publisher or manufacturer.

For books, results may be based on the text of each book, not just its title. That’s why you may sometimes see results you weren’t expecting.

NARROWING YOUR SEARCH

Once you are searching within a department, you’ll be able to refine your results further by selecting the desired attributes of the products (e.g.: brand, size, etc.) using the links shown to the left of the search results.

In some departments, you may also choose Advanced Search from the navigation bar at the top of the home page. Advanced Search allows you to choose which attributes of a product (title, author, etc.) to search for.

Conclusion to the story, Amazon will sell anything and everything regardless of what lives it destroys, marriages it ruins, or people it messes up… Amazon will do whatever it can to make a buck.
A good response if they want to be considered the world’s best Customer Service team is to allow users to turn off explicit content as one can on Google, Yahoo, as well as Bing.

Accommodating The Enemy, Dealing With Terrorists

(BrightCitizen.com)  They plotted to kill not soldiers, but civilians of the United States of America.  There is no remorse, if released many have said they’ll do it again.  So what do the misguided leaders of the Obama administration do?  They put these murderers on trial.  Trial is not usually a way you deal with your enemy who wants to kill you.

To make matters worse, political correctness has weakened the United States.  Must we even dress like the enemy and talk like the enemy?  The media reports

The defense attorney who wore a traditional Islamic outfit during the rowdy arraignment of the accused Sept. 11 terrorists is defending her courtroom appeal that other women in the room wear more “appropriate” clothing to the proceedings — out of respect for her client’s Muslim beliefs.

Cheryl Bormann, counsel for defendant Walid bin Attash, attended the arraignment Saturday dressed in a hijab, apparently because her client insisted on it. She further requested that the court order other women to follow that example so that the defendants do not have to avert their eyes “for fear of committing a sin under their faith.”

Americans might as well give they freedom away now.  They are so busy trying to give freedom away, their freedom has enslaved them.

Former President Bush The Passion President

President George W. Bush will probably always be known for his passion for people. Even at 66 years old, he decided to encourage people and take the wounded warriors (US Service men and women who had fought for the United States) out on a bike ride to challenge their skills.

Great work President Bush!

Campaigner And Chief Obama Makes Issue Out of Student Loan Non-issue For Campaign

(BrightCitizen.com)  Campaigner and chief Barry Hussein Obama has decided to make a issue out of the soon to come interest rate increase for student loans.  The problem, the democrats were the ones who engineered the rate increase.

The Republicans agree with delaying the interest rate increases.  So why is Obama campaigning… or as he says, ‘consulting with Students’ in face to face visits at three universities?  He apparently needs something to demonize his Republican opponents.     The problem is actually both parties agree on the issue.

As one famous lawyer said, “I feel Obama has gone from campaigner and chief, to Chief Deceiver”.  Are there any American people ignorant enough to fall for Obama’s blatant deception?  We’ll soon find out.

The Truth About Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman

(BrightCitizen.com)  The media has doctored recordings, the usual social deviants Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson (mail order ministers that masquerade as Jesus followers but do other things behind the scenes) have worked had to stoke the racial fires, and much of the United States has focused on an isolated shooting in Florida drawing lots of prejudice.  Even the campaigner and chief Barak Obama has claimed the Black American as his son.

History is always the best way to see the hearts of people. One media company did extension research on George Zimmerman to try to put together a background on the overblown event and reported here.  What were their conclusions?

-If Zimmerman were a racist, why would he have partnered in an Allstate Insurance business with his black friend.

-Zimmerman’s also comes of African descent through his Afro-Peruvian great grandfather

-Black youth just like Trayvon Martin had been burglarizing the neighborhood and no one is sure if Williams was one of the thieves or not.

-The media has blown Zimmerman’s history with the police out of proportion when he pushed an undercover plainclothes police officer away from an underage drinker in a bar.

Clearly, all parties need to tone down the hype and focus on letting the justice system work it’s course.  The big question at BrightCitizen is if Martin was one of the thieves in the neighborhood or truly the innocent youth walking with the skittles and drink.

An sad sideshow is begin put on by Trayvon’s mother the daily mail reports

It was revealed today that Sabrina Fulton, the boy’s mother, filed two petitions last week to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to specifically gain the rights to the phrases ‘I Am Trayvon’ and ‘Justice For Trayvon’, both of which have been frequently used by protesters across the country.

The trademark application shows that she is specifically looking for control of the use of those phrases on CDs and DVDs that feature her deceased son.

We air on the side of, what ever is done in the darkness is going to come to light.

Reuters Misreporting Again On Obama Using The Federal Government To Attack States

(BrightCitizen.com) The Presidency of Barak Obama will no doubt go down as the Presidency of Litigation.  Instead of hearing the concerns of the majorities of States and their governments, the Obama administration has decided that spending tax payers money to sue States they don’t agree with or see some potential for ‘buying’ votes.  They have become the bully and vacated the seat of moderation and unity.

Ask any citizen of Arizona and you will have a hard time finding anyone disagreeing with their law authorizing police to check ID for people that could possibly be illegal.  Police check ID of regular citizens all the time for traffic stops. One would wonder what is the big deal.

Reuters news agency must see itself as working for Barak and his crew of nation busters.  When states finally got fed up with Obama and his efforts to derail their efforts to operate Attorney Generals started to respond.  Now  Reuters tries to write it up as a Republican conspiracy.  They say,

(Reuters) – In the ornate Chinese Ballroom of Washington’s Mayflower Hotel, nine Republican state attorneys general gathered last month at a long, white-cloth covered table for an unusual news conference. One by one, as TV news cameras rolled, they catalogued their many lawsuits against President Barack Obama’s administration.

When it came to Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne’s turn, he said, “We have eight lawsuits.” One of those, defending Arizona’s new law requiring police officers to check the papers of anyone they suspect is in the U.S. illegally, will be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday.

Like the Supreme Court challenge to the Obama-sponsored healthcare law heard last month, the Arizona case is part of a larger story about an escalating battle between Republican-led states and the federal government. All but one of the 16 states that have filed “friend of the court” briefs on the Arizona side have Republican governors. Meanwhile, all of the 11 states lining up with the Obama administration are led by Democrats.

The article is written by Joan Biskupic and can be read in it’s entirety here.  However the point is, quit being a political mouthpiece for the current Obama regime and start reporting the news Reuters.  Your bias is blatant and discredits you.  Making an effort to come across as more neutral may sell more advertising.  Then again, maybe sensationalism brings more revenue?  That helped William Randolf Hearst to build his empire of manipulation.

The fact is federal and state governments need to work together, not be taking legal action.  The buck stops and start with the office of President, no matter what party is there at the time.

Another Broken Obama Promise- The Federal Election Commission (FEC)

Bloomberg reports on another broken Obama promise.

Barack Obama pledged as a presidential candidate to strengthen the Federal Election Commission and nominate members “committed to enforcing our nation’s election laws.”

Since taking office, he hasn’t pushed for achievement of either goal.

The president has taken no action to reshape the FEC, even as five of the six commissioners are serving on expired terms. In the meantime, the FEC deadlocked along party lines on whether to consider requiring nonprofits spending millions of dollars on political ads to disclose their donors.

America Is Floundering, America Needs a President Who Understands Business

(BrightCitizen.com)  Barak Obama has proven to America and the world that he is clueless in business.  Gas prices are at their highest level (over $4/gallon), businesses aren’t hiring for fear of more regulations, and American universities are beginning to lose their shine for international students. His constant cries for “Tax the rich” are pure attempts to buy the votes of the less fortunate.

The United States of America needs a President that understands business and understands people.  We are excited about Mitt Romney because he understands business and has done a good job in it.  Looking forward to 2013 when our newly elected president takes office.
