WATCH BRIAN TONIGHT ON ROCK CENTER WITH WHAT'S HIS NAME OH BRIAN WILLIAMS AT 10PM.
Now the news is to funny as the pie in the sky pizzaman is about to start losing in the poll numbers now the people know 999 was taken from a video game.
I am on facebook and for those who aren't it's really nice. Even Mark Zuckerberg allows you to ask question and you get his facebook post and even post to him. He does up grading and gives you help. He is so different then Steve Jobs and more approachable.
Well we can get ready for more birtha filings and more attacks on President Obama. Now questions of Senator Rubio, Governors Jindal and Haley are targets too. We have New Mexico Governor Martinez in the group. Now other then the dream of Obama not being an American citizen, the new question is can illegal immigrants who just come to the US to have their child born in the USA and then these parents never get their citizenship have their kids take elected jobs. Jindal says his parent just can to the US to have him born here. Rubio's parent traveled back and forth to Cuba just allowing their kids to be born here. Haley's parents did the same. We're learning Anchor babies are many and doing very well as their parents were smart to use our system. Gov. Martinez who's parents died but her grandparents live in the USA and are still never got their citizenship. But notice how how no one had a problem with John McCain who had proof he wasn't a US born citizen but still the GOP saw no problem breaking the US Constitution. Now these Republican/Tea Party elected officials are being questioned while they look to deport families just like theirs. Hate and evil runs deep and now we see the rats turning on the rats.
Thank goodness the President found a way to help some homeowners and our soldiers. Americans seem to agree with Mitt Romney's statement during the Debate. As he said Banks should get back to foreclosures and people should be renters not owners. What's scary is those who support that statement will learn the Banks no longer hold their Deeds nor do they have a Trustee/Lender and even when people finish paying their mortgage to the Bank servers but in the end the homeowners still doesn't have a Deed. Thank goodness our soldiers can get help as it seems Law Makers are busy protecting the Banks.
The GOP has announced when voters elected a Corporate/Bank President, they will pass the Transportation Bill but not until voters do as their told. Much like blackmail but don't expect anyone to report it that way. 2010 GOP made a promise and again broke it but why not lie again as it works really good on the voters.
see you same time same place
No way the next President is going to out do Obama on being the servant of Big Banks and corrupt corporations. He's been freaking historic bahahahahaha
OK If the Nazi Party, the Communist Party, Iran's 12ers weren't enough David Duke is backing the OWS Protesters. They have officially jumped the shark
President Obama's economic drive sounds like a Plan. It made my day that a
Wells Fargo CEO was interviewed; things are looking up. I am impressed with your
new home, Brian.

When the camera panned out and showed the Rock Center set, I didn't see the pasta bar you've been talking about, guess that's still in the works :)
Good Evening Mr.Williams, a great broadcast this evening as always. Wonderful studio for Nightly News and the set of "Rock Center" right across from you looked great.
First of all the report by Michelle Franzen from Eastern Turkey and the terrible 7.2 earthquake that struck the area. The rescue workers trying to find survivors in a race against time. It was miraculous the young man was found alive after 30 hours in the rubble also the toddler rescued. So very tragic the loss of hundreds of lives and the number rising. It is good relief is pouring into the area to help those who have survived, but that is little relief to those who lost loved ones. One hopes more people will be found alive by the rescuers. Thoughts and prayers go out to all those people in the area hit by the earthquake.
Ther report by Kate Snow about the debris from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan floating across the Pacific Ocean showed how massive the amount of trash. Ships having to steer around large massive floating fields of trash and it seems to be heading towards the United States coastline. It appears the Hawaiian Islands will have a substantial amount come near the coastline. It will truly have an effect on the wildlife in the ocean and the beaches. Time will tell what the toxi results this debris will inflict on the environment.
So very sad and tragic the loss of Sgt. First Class Christopher Domejii ahow was one of four soldiers killed in Afghanistan over the weekend. After 14 tours of duty which is incredible and shows such bravery and dedication to our nation. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family. So very sad.
Very inspirational and touching "Making A Difference" segment by Anne Thompson. Such a wonderful thing the little 8yr old boy is doing.
Thank You for the broadcast Mr.Williams. Peace to You and to All!
Be Well Everyone!
Stay Extra,Extra Safe and Well Richard!
Take Extra,Extra Good Care Richard and Crew!

there have been 3 fires in the trailer park, one in the dumpster, one at an empty trailer and a pile of tree branches pruned and last night, , 4 trailers down from me, a palm tree, a shed and the back bedroom of an empty trailer lit up the night. i went into the living room and saw the illuminated windows, looked outside and saw the flames shooting into the sky, i thought an entire trailer was going up in smoke. my high school friend in the trailer next to the fire was pretty distraught as was her mom. i called 911, the fire trucks were already on their way, thank goodness. last thursday, the empty trailer next to me was broken into and the other day i saw a 'fortuna' brand cigarette pack on the grass behind it. i gave that to the fire men last night, maybe those were the felons and it had fingerprints on it, hope, hope. maybe they were the real jerks that started the fire in the canyons this summer that mike almiguer came in to report on.
on a happier note, after making several phone calls, i located the cochise county office that helps poverty level with utilities and things like dead furnaces, which my neighbors 3 trailers down have, dead gas furnace and oven. i got all of the info for the 10 or so items that she will need to apply for help. the mom has serious arthritis, she doesn't need to freeze for another winter . . . . . i will call back to see if they will have a spanish-speaking interviewer, if not, her daughter can go with her. my mother didn't speak english her whole life, either, and she came to the united states when she was 18 and worked for one of the williams families of douglas, founders of the town and phelps dodge, the copper mining company. she worked for them until she married my dad when she was 35.
finally over my dastardly flu bug that i caught at motor vehicles department, thank you very much. ugh. waiting to call my son tomorrow for his birthday, he is on a business trip in japan, training a new employee in the micro-chip industry. he was looking forward to great sushi, sake and hunting down the ramen restaurants.
i'm glad our soldiers are coming home from iraq. i still think they should let those that want to homestead out west do just that:-) they should do a 'back 40', plant a bunch of trees and put in very large ponds for the migrating birds and load them with fish:-) maybe some interesting birds that have long been instinct (i.e., they just went into a parallel universe that still had water in those areas) will come back, kind of like what started happening in the everglades in florida with flora and fauna when jeb bush was governor and they made the everglades a priority.
best, anna martina
Here are some stories you didn't see recently on Nightly News (and are not likely to see for obvious reasons):
***Michael Douglas's son Cameron, who is already serving a five-year prison sentence for dealing meth and cocaine, pleaded guilty to possession of drugs in prison and is expected to receive an additional 12 to 18 months on his sentence. Many news organizations reported this story, but Brian Williams will never report it because Michael Douglas is an FOB (Friend of Brian). Brian doesn't report negative stories about his friends and their families, and he obviously quashed this story as a favor to Michael Douglas, who introduces Brian almost every night on Nightly News.
***According to an article in The New York Times this week, McDonald's has indicated that it may be necessary for them to raise menu prices for the third time this year. Brian will not report this because he only reports good news about McDonald's, like the launch of their new gourmet coffees, how they spent a billion dollars to renovate their restaurants or how their Happy Meals are now healthier. McDonald's is one of NBC's best advertisers, so you won't hear this story on Nightly News.
***On Friday, CBS News reported that Walmart is drastically cutting their employee health benefits (The New York Times also reported this on Friday--on the front page of their business section). Employee health insurance premiums will increase by 20%-60%, company health savings contributions will decrease by 50% and Walmart will no longer provide health insurance for new part-time employees who work less than 24 hours per week. Brian will not report this because he doesn't like to report bad news about Walmart, one of NBC's biggest advertisers. Of course, he's happy to tell us when Walmart is planning to sell healthier food or slash their prices because Walmart pays NBC for positive news coverage with their millions in ad dollars each year.
Brian and his producers often decide what stories to report on Nightly News based not on the newsworthiness of the stories, but on how much the stories can help their sponsors. Conversely, they also protect their sponsors (and FOBs) by refusing to report negative stories. That's how Brian and his producers operate. Welcome to Nightly News. New studio, same old tricks.
