The 4th branch is alive and functioning. Check news sources other than NBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, PBS, MSNBC AND FOX.

Since the devestation of Mother Earth shifting, ravaging Haiti, the media has been attempting to shape our minds around the story.  President Obama was praised for acting so quickly.  One of the first moves by the president was to mobilize 3,500. Army Airborne troops and, 2200 Marines  Wow, I thought Airborne, Marines???  Airborne and Marine units are far from humanitairan units.  I wondered why not Army combat engineers or Navy Construction Battalion (C-Bees), these units would be most beneficial in this environment.  Nope, True combat teams came in first.  The Coast Guard Cutters Tahoma and Valient were the first on scene and in effect the USCG took control of Haitian skys.  The U.S. allows or disallows flights into the airport in Port Au Prince.  They control what countries land and deliver aide and what countries do not.  I Thought of the rebuilding of New Orleans and the no bid contracts awarded to Bush cronies.  And, I wondered to whom would this president award contracts?  The fast move did a lot to strengthen, in the eyes of some Black people, the resolve that president Obama didn't hesitate to save the Haitian people, much as G. W. Bush didn't act in New Orleans after Hurricaine Katrina.  Yet, president Obama invited G. W. Bush to a news conference, a man many Haitians hold a great deal of contempt. 

Now, the "news" is  attempting to shape our thoughts, into seeing the poor Haitians becoming violent  due to the lack of aide and food they weren't receiving and order must be attained.  I suppose when the 82nd Airborne and Marines fire on civilians it will be justified in order to bring about order.  The Haitian National Police have all run off, they're telling us.  Then the Airborne and Marines will have to "act."  Yet, there are other news agencies bringing us another perspective of what is happening in Haitil  Check this video and you decide.
