Rose Wilder Lane (December 5, 1886 – October 30, 1968) was an American journalist, travel writer, novelist, political theorist and daughter of American writer Laura Ingalls Wilder. Along with two other female writers, Ayn Rand and Isabel Paterson, Lane is noted as one of the most influential advocates of the American libertarian movement.

Early life

Lane was the first child of Laura Ingalls Wilder and Almanzo Wilder and the only child of her parents to survive into adulthood. Her early years were a difficult time for her parents because of successive crop failures, illnesses and chronic economic hardships. During her childhood, the family moved several times, living with relatives in Minnesota and then Florida and briefly returning to De Smet, South Dakota, before settling in Mansfield, Missouri, in 1894. There, her parents would eventually establish a dairy farm and fruit orchards. She attended secondary school in Mansfield and Crowley, Louisiana, while living with her aunt Eliza Jane Wilder, graduating in 1904 in a class of seven. Her intellect and ambition were demonstrated by her ability to compress three years of Latin into one and by graduating at the top of her high school class in Crowley. Despite her academic success, she was unable to attend college as a result of her parents' financial situation.

Early career, marriage and divorce
After high school graduation, Lane returned to her parents' home in Mansfield and learned telegraphy at the Mansfield railroad station. Not satisfied with the options open to young women in Mansfield, by early 1905 she was working for Western Union in Sedalia, Missouri. By 1906, Lane was working as a telegrapher at the Midland Hotel in Kansas City. Over the next five years, Lane worked as a telegrapher in Missouri, Indiana and California.

In 1908, Lane moved to San Francisco, California, where she worked as a telegrapher at the Fairmont Hotel. In March 1909, Lane married salesman, promoter and occasional newspaperman Claire Gillette Lane. Evidence exists that suggests the Lanes had met back in Kansas City and Lane's diary hints that she moved to San Francisco to join her future husband. Shortly after they wed, Lane quit her job with Western Union and the couple embarked on travels across the United States to promote various schemes. Lane soon became pregnant. While staying in Salt Lake City the following November, Lane gave birth to a premature, stillborn son, according to public records. Subsequent surgery in Kansas City likely left her unable to bear children. The topic is mentioned only briefly in a handful of existing letters written by Lane years after the infant's death in order to express sympathy and understanding to close friends who were also dealing with the loss of a child.

For the next few years, the Lanes continued to live a nomadic lifestyle, including stays in Missouri, Ohio, New York and Maine to work together and separately on various promotional and advertising projects. While letters to her parents described a happy-go-lucky existence, Lane's subsequent diary entries and numerous autobiographical magazine articles later described her mindset at this time as depressed and disillusioned with her marriage.  She felt her intellectual interests did not mesh with the life she was living with her husband. One account even had her attempting suicide by drugging herself with chloroform only to awake with a headache and a renewed sense of purpose in life.

During these years, Lane, keenly aware of her lack of a formal education, read voraciously and taught herself several languages. Her writing career began around 1908, with occasional freelance newspaper jobs that earned much-needed extra cash. In 1913 and 1914, the Lanes sold farm land in what is now the San Jose/Silicon Valley area of Northern California. Conditions often required them to work separately to earn greater commissions and of the two Lane turned out to be the better salesperson. The marriage foundered as there were several periods of separation and eventually an amicable divorce. Lane's diaries reveal subsequent romantic involvements with several men in the years following her divorce, but she never remarried and eventually chose to remain single and free of romantic attachments.

The threat of America's entry into World War I had seriously weakened the real estate market, so in early 1915 Lane accepted a friend's offer of a stopgap job as an editorial assistant on the staff of the San Francisco Bulletin. The stopgap turned into a watershed. She immediately caught the attention of her editors not only through her talents as a writer in her own right, but also as a highly skilled editor for other writers. Before long, her photo and byline were running in the Bulletin daily, churning out formulaic romantic fiction serials that would run for weeks at a time. Lane's first-hand accounts of the lives of Henry Ford, Charlie Chaplin, Jack London and Herbert Hoover were published in book form.

Later in 1915, Lane's mother visited San Francisco for several months. Together they attended the Panama–Pacific International Exposition. Details of this visit and Wilder's daily life in 1915 are preserved in Wilder's letters to her husband in West from Home, published in 1974. Although Lane's diaries indicate she was separated from her husband in 1915, her mother's letters do not indicate this. Lane and her husband are recorded as living together with him unemployed and looking for work during her mother's two-month visit. It seems the separation was either covered up, or had not yet involved separate households.

Freelance writing career
By 1918, Lane's marriage officially ended and she had quit her job with the San Francisco Bulletin following the resignation of managing editor, Fremont Older. It was at this point that Lane launched her career as a freelance writer. From this period through the early 1940s, her work regularly appeared in leading publications such as Harper's, Saturday Evening Post, Sunset, Good Housekeeping and Ladies' Home Journal. Several of her short stories were nominated for O. Henry Prizes and a few novels became top sellers.

Lane became the first biographer of Herbert Hoover, writing The Making of Herbert Hoover in 1920 in collaboration with Charles K. Field, editor of Sunset magazine. The book was published well before Hoover became president in 1929. A friend and defender of Hoover's for the remainder of her life, many of her personal papers would later be included in the Rose Wilder-Lane Collection at the Herbert Hoover Library in West Branch, Iowa. While Lane's papers contain little actual correspondence between them, the Hoover Post-Presidential Individual series contains a file of Rose's correspondence that spans from 1936 to 1963.

In the late 1920s, Lane was reputed to be one of the highest-paid female writers in America and along with Hoover counted among her friends well known figures such as Sinclair Lewis, Isabel Paterson, Dorothy Thompson, John Patric and Lowell Thomas. Despite this success, her compulsive generosity with her family and friends often found her strapped for cash and forced to work on material that paid well, but thus did not engage her growing interests in political theory and world history. She suffered from periodic bouts of self-doubt and depression in mid-life, diagnosing herself as having bipolar disorder. During these times of depression, Lane was unable to move ahead with her own writing, but she would easily find work as a ghostwriter or silent editor for other well-known writers. In 1928, Lane returned to the United States to live on her parents' farm. Confident in her sales of her books and short stories as well as her growing stock market investments, she spent freely, building a new home for her parents on the property and modernizing the farmhouse for herself and a steady stream of visiting literary friends.

Lane's occasional work as a traveling war correspondent began with a stint with the American Red Cross Publicity Bureau in post-World War I Europe. She would continue with the Red Cross through 1965, reporting from Vietnam at the age of 78 for Woman's Day magazine to provide "a woman's point of view". She traveled extensively in Europe and Asia as part of the Red Cross. In 1926, Lane, Helen Dore Boylston and their French maid traveled from France to Albania in a car they had named Zenobia. An account of the journey called Travels With Zenobia: Paris to Albania by Model T Ford was published in 1983. Lane became enamored with Albania and lived there for several long periods during the 1920s, spaced between sojourns to Paris and her parents' Rocky Ridge Farm in Missouri. She informally adopted a young Albanian boy named Rexh Meta (), who she claimed saved her life on a dangerous mountain trek. She later sponsored his education at Cambridge University. He served in the Albanian government and was imprisoned for over thirty years by both the Italian fascists and the Albanian communists, dying in Tirana in 1985.

Literary collaboration
Lane's role in her mother's Little House book series has remained unclear. Her parents had invested with her broker upon her advice and when the market crashed the Wilders found themselves in difficult times. Lane came to the farm at 46 years old, divorced and childless, with minimal finances to keep her afloat.

In late 1930, Lane's mother approached her with a rough, first-person narrative manuscript outlining her hardscrabble pioneer childhood, Pioneer Girl. Lane took notice and started using her connections in the publishing world. Despite Lane's efforts to market Pioneer Girl through her publishing connections, the manuscript was rejected time and again. One editor recommended crafting a novel for children out of the beginning. Wilder and Lane worked on the idea and the result was Little House in the Big Woods. Accepted for publishing by Harper and Brothers in late 1931, then hitting the shelves in 1932, the book's success resulted in the decision to continue the series, following young Laura into young adulthood. The First Four Years was discovered as a manuscript after Lane's death in 1968. Wilder had written the manuscript about the first four years of her marriage and the struggles of the frontier, but she never had intended for it to be published. However, in 1971 it became the ninth volume in the Little House series.

Successful novels

The collaboration between the two is believed by literary historians to have benefited Lane's career as much as her mother's. Lane's most popular short stories and her two most commercially successful novels were written at this time and were fueled by material which was taken directly from Wilder's recollections of Ingalls-Wilder family folklore. Let the Hurricane Roar (later titled Young Pioneers) and Free Land both addressed the difficulties of homesteading in the Dakotas in the late 19th century and how the so-called "free land" in fact cost homesteaders their life savings. The Saturday Evening Post paid Lane top fees to serialize both novels, which were later adapted for popular radio performances. Both books represented Lane's creative and literary peak. The Saturday Evening Post paid her $30,000 in 1938 to serialize her best-selling novel Free Land ($ by today's standards). Let the Hurricane Roar saw an increasing and steady sale, augmented by its adaptation into popular radio dramatization that starred Helen Hayes.

In 1938, with the proceeds of Free Land in hand, Lane was able to pay all of her accumulated debts. She relocated to Danbury, Connecticut, and purchased a rural home there with three wooded acres, on which she lived for the rest of her life. At this same time, the growing royalties from the Little House books were providing Lane's parents with an assured and sufficient income. Lane bought her parents an automobile and financed construction of the Rock House near the Wilder homestead. Her parents resided in the Rock House during much of the 1930s.

Return to journalism and societal views

During World War II, Lane enjoyed a new phase in her writing career. From 1942 to 1945, she wrote a weekly column for The Pittsburgh Courier, at the time the most widely read African-American newspaper.

Rather than hiding or trimming her laissez-faire views, Lane seized the chance to sell them to the readership. She sought out topics of special interest to her audience. Her first entry characterized the Double V campaign as part of the more general fight for individual liberty in the United States, writing: "Here, at last, is a place where I belong. Here are the Americans who know the value of equality and freedom". Her columns highlighted success stories of blacks to illustrate broader themes about entrepreneurship, freedom and creativity. In one, she compared the accomplishments of Robert Lee Vann and Henry Ford. Vann's rags to riches story illustrated the benefits in a "capitalist society in which a penniless orphan, one of a despised minority can create The Pittsburgh Courier and publicly, vigorously, safely, attack a majority opinion" while Ford's showed how a poor mechanic can create "hundreds of jobs, [...] putting even beggars into cars".

Lane combined advocacy of laissez faire and anti-racism. The views she expressed on race were similar to those of Zora Neale Hurston, a fellow individualist and writer who was black. Her columns emphasized the arbitrariness of racial categories and stressed the centrality of the individual. Instead of indulging in what she referred to as the "ridiculous, idiotic and tragic fallacy of race, [by] which a minority of the earth's population has deluded itself during the past century", Lane believed it was time for all Americans. black and white, to "renounce their race". Judging by skin color was comparable to the communists who assigned guilt or virtue on the basis of class. In Lane's view, the fallacies of race and class hearkened to the "old English-feudal 'class' distinction". She further believed that the collectivists, including those who embraced President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, were to blame for filling "young minds with fantasies of 'races' and 'classes' and 'the masses,' all controlled by pagan gods, named Economic Determinism or Society or Government".

Along with Hurston and Paterson, Lane was critical of Roosevelt on his foreign policy and was against drafting young men into a foreign war.

The Discovery of Freedom
For a few months in 1940, Lane's growing zeal for libertarianism united her with the well-known vagabond free-lance writer John Patric, a like-minded political thinker whose advocacy of libertarian themes culminated in his 1943 work Yankee Hobo in the Orient. They spent several months traveling across the country in Patric's automobile to observe the effects of the Great Depression on the nation and to exchange ideas. The trip culminated in a two-month stay in Bellingham, Washington.

In the early 1940s, despite continuing requests from editors for both fiction and non-fiction material, Lane turned away from commercial fiction writing, save for her collaboration on her mother's books. At this time, she became known among libertarians as influential in the movement. She vehemently opposed the New Deal, eschewed "creeping socialism", Social Security, wartime rationing, and all forms of taxation. Lane ceased writing highly paid commercial fiction to protest paying income taxes. Living on a small salary from her newspaper column and no longer needing to support her parents or adopted sons, she cut expenses to the bare minimum, living a modern-day version of her ancestors' pioneer life on her rural land near Danbury. She gained some media attention for her refusal to accept a ration card, instead working cooperatively with her rural neighbors to grow and preserve fruits and vegetables and to raise chickens and pigs for meat. Literary critic and political writer Isabel Paterson had urged Lane to move to Connecticut, where she would be only "up country a few miles" from Paterson, who had been a friend for many years.

After experiencing it first hand in the Soviet Union during her travels with the Red Cross, Lane was a staunch opponent of communism. As a result, Lane's initial writings on individualism and conservative government began while she was still writing popular fiction in the 1930s, culminating with The Discovery of Freedom (1943). After this point, Lane promoted and wrote about individual freedom and its impact on humanity. The same year also saw the publication of Paterson's The God of the Machine and Ayn Rand's novel The Fountainhead. Because of these writings, the three women have been referred to as the founding mothers of the American libertarian movement.

Writer Albert Jay Nock wrote that Lane and Paterson's nonfiction works were "the only intelligible books on the philosophy of individualism that have been written in America this century". The two women had "shown the male world of this period how to think fundamentally. [...] [T]hey don't fumble and fiddle around – every shot goes straight to the centre". Journalist John Chamberlain credits Rand, Paterson and Lane with his final "conversion" from socialism to what he called "an older American philosophy" of libertarian and conservative ideas.

In 1943, Lane came into the national spotlight through her response to a radio poll on Social Security. She mailed in a post-card with a response likening the Social Security system to a Ponzi scheme that would, she felt, ultimately destroy the United States. Wartime monitoring of mail eventually resulted in a Connecticut State Trooper being dispatched to her home to question her motives. Her strong response to this infringement on her right of free speech resulted in a flurry of newspaper articles and the publishing of a pamphlet, "What is this, the Gestapo?", that was meant to remind Americans to be watchful of their rights despite the wartime exigencies.  The pamphlet was distributed by the National Economic Council, Inc, an anti-Semitic organization that supported the fascist government in Spain.  During this time period, an FBI file was compiled on Lane.

As Lane aged, her political opinions solidified as a stalwart libertarian. Her defense of what she considered to be basic American principles of liberty and freedom were seen by some as harsh and abrasive in the face of disagreement. It is documented that during this time period that she broke with her old friend and political ally Isabel Paterson in 1946. During this time period and into the 1950s, Lane also had an acrimonious correspondence with socialist writer Max Eastman.

Later years and death
Lane played a hands-on role during the 1940s and 1950s in launching the libertarian movement and began an extensive correspondence with figures such as DuPont executive Jasper Crane and writer Frank Meyer as well as her friend and colleague Ayn Rand. She wrote book reviews for the National Economic Council and later for the Volker Fund, out of which grew the Institute for Humane Studies. Later, she lectured at and gave generous financial support to the Freedom School headed by libertarian Robert LeFevre.

With her mother's death in 1957, ownership of the Rocky Ridge Farm house reverted to the farmer who had earlier bought the property on a life lease, allowing her to remain in residence. The local population put together a non-profit corporation to purchase the house and its grounds for use as a museum. After some wariness at the notion of seeing the house rather than the books themselves be a shrine to Lane's mother, she came to believe that making it into a museum would draw long-lasting attention to the books and sustain the theme of individualism she and her mother wove into the series. She donated the money needed to purchase the house and make it a museum, agreed to make significant contributions each year for its upkeep and also gave many of the family's belongings to the group. Lane's lifetime inheritance of Wilder's growing Little House royalties enabled her to again travel extensively and thoroughly renovated and remodeled her Connecticut home. Also during the 1960s, she revived her own commercial writing career by publishing several popular magazine series, including one about her tour of the Vietnam War zone in late 1965.

In later years, Lane wrote a book detailing the history of American needlework for Woman's Day. She edited and published On the Way Home, providing an autobiographical setting around her mother's original 1894 diary of their six-week journey from South Dakota to Missouri. Intended to serve as the capstone to the Little House series, the book was the result of Wilder's fans who were writing to Lane asking "what happened next?". She contributed book reviews to the William Volker Fund and continued to work on revisions of The Discovery of Freedom, which she never completed.

Lane was the adoptive grandmother and mentor to Roger Lea MacBride, later the Libertarian Party's 1976 candidate for president. The son of one of her editors with whom she formed a close bond when he was a boy, Lane later stated she was grooming him to be a future Libertarian thought leader. In addition to being her close friend, MacBride became her attorney and business manager and ultimately the heir to the Little House series and the multimillion-dollar franchise that he built around it after her death.

The last of the protégés to be taken under Lane's wing was the sister of her Vietnamese interpreter. Impressed by the young girl's intelligence, Lane helped to bring her to the United States and sponsored her enrollment in college.

Lane died in her sleep at age 81 on October 30, 1968, just as she was about to depart on a three-year world tour. She was buried next to her parents at Mansfield Cemetery in Mansfield, Missouri.

In the media
Lane was portrayed in the television adaptations of Little House on the Prairie by:
 Jennifer and Michele Steffin
 Terra Allen (part 1) and Skye McCole Bartusiak, Christina Stojanovich (part 2), in the miniseries Beyond the Prairie: The True Story of Laura Ingalls Wilder.

There are eight novels written by MacBride, telling of her childhood and early youth. Despite assertions of the accuracy of the locations, dates and people mentioned, there is heavy debate on the degree of authenticity. At least some events may be accurately represented as he was a close friend of hers.

In the novel Pioneer Girl by Bich Minh Nguyen, a young Vietnamese-American Lee Lien researches Lane's life based on an old family story. Lee's grandfather claims that Lane became friendly with the family while visiting Vietnam in 1965 and gifted them with a gold brooch, suspected to be the one Almanzo gave to Lane's mother as described in These Happy Golden Years.

In the novel A Wilder Rose by Susan Wittig Albert, Lane tells the story of her work on the Little House books and her years at the Wilder farm (1928–1935) to Norma Lee Browning, a young friend. The novel is based on Lane's diaries and journals of the period and letters exchanged with her mother.

In the alternate history novel The Probability Broach by L. Neil Smith in which the United States becomes a libertarian state in 1794 after a successful Whiskey Rebellion and the overthrowing and execution of George Washington by firing squad for treason, Lane served as the 21st President of the North American Confederacy from 1940 to 1952.

'Countdown with Keith Olbermann' for Tuesday, August 17th, 2010
Video via MSNBC: Oddball, Worst Persons
Guests: Eugene Robinson, Corey Saylor, Spike Lee, Eric Burns, Alex Pareene
KEITH OLBERMANN, HOST (voice-over): Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow?
The Park 51 cultural center and the red herring. Phony right-wing outrage in New York, while Muslims face real discrimination below the radar around the country - and the GOP gets to avoid the issues.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Double digits when it comes to unemployment. And this is the best that we can do in America? This is what we want to focus on? This is what politicians want to run on?
OLBERMANN: "If God Is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise."
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: This oil spill is the biggest environmental disaster in American history.
OLBERMANN: Our guest on his new documentary about the Gulf Coast, in the time of Katrina and BP: Spike Lee.
Smell test, literally. How the government now checks if there's dispersant in Gulf Coast seafood - sniff it and see if it smells like Windex.
All pretense dropped. FOX News' parent company gives a huge donation to the Republican Governors Association. How much?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: One million dollars.
OLBERMANN: Funny, didn't the real life version of that character say
RUPERT MURDOCH, NEWS CORP.: I don't think we should be supporting the Tea Party or any other party.
OLBERMANN: Tea Party hostile takeover. A bunch of white corporate fat cats is trying to commandeer the GOP. What about their current bunch of white corporate fat cats?
Our guest: "Salon's" Alex Pareene.
"Worsts": Missing for 26 days, fiance polygraphed, web sites set up, two states searching. She's fine. You will never believe this story.
All the new and commentary - now on Countdown.
OLBERMANN: Good evening from New York.
Many colonists, like those who settled in Jamestown in Virginia, traveled in search of fortune, betting that the cultivation of cash crops, such as tobacco, would allow them to realize the promise in a promised land. But others, like those who landed at Plymouth Rock, hope for a different reward, sailing to the new world on the Mayflower to escape religious persecution.
Our fifth story: put aside the ginned up faux controversy surrounding the building of an Islamist community center somewhere near Ground Zero - the non-news that Republicans want you to talk about instead of focusing upon unemployment, the Gulf oil disaster, health care.
The real actual controversy might be this: the threat to religious freedom, a threat already being faced by other Muslim Americans nationwide, and a freedom upon which this nation was founded. Those who oppose the Islamic community center near Ground Zero, being many of the same people who love to wrap themselves in the yellow parchment of our founding documents with little to no understanding of what those documents represent.
Muslim and interfaith leaders today are expressing concern that the question of religious freedom is not contained to Lower Manhattan, calling for the protection of community centers, of mosques, of other houses of worship, of Muslim Americans, and of other worshippers around the country, their fears not unfounded. Recent weeks and months witnessing an alarming rise in incidents.
Mosques now facing zoning challenges in Tennessee, in California, in Georgia, in Kentucky, in Wisconsin and in Illinois; standing room-only in a courthouse when a proposed facility in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, was discussed - as well as only miles from Ground Zero, itself, in Midland Beach in Staten Island, and Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn.
Then there's the unmasked hatred and violence. Last week, Christians protestors confronting worshippers outside a mosque in Bridgeport, Connecticut, before Friday evening prayer services during Ramadan just because. Screaming, among other things, "Jesus hates Muslims" and calling the children murderers.
In Jacksonville, in Florida in May, the pipe bombing of the mosque - the FBI is investigating it as a possible domestic terrorist incident.
In the San Francisco Bay Area in California, Muslim man beaten in broad daylight by attackers who called him a terrorist.
And mother and son reported assaulted after a softball game in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Why? The Iraqi immigrant who moved her family here to escape violence tried to defend her adult son when he was called "raghead," "terrorist" and "camel jockey' by members of the opposing team. Also, the man's jaw is broken, now wired shut. The police is saying the incident seemed to be trash talking that got out of hand.
The attackers in these cases are calling their victims terrorists. The attackers meanwhile claiming they, themselves, oppose violence, while they were assaulting others.
By the same logic, the man behind the Islamic community center near Ground Zero, Feisal Abdul Rauf, has been called a radical Muslim, a militant Islamist, and the enemy - when in point and fact, reporting "The Huffington Post" today, he has spent the past decade helping the FBI as tried to crackdown on domestic security threats. The portrait does not meet the manufactured reality of how Feisal Abdul Rauf is now being painted.
Just as the manufactured outrage against this community center does not address the lack of outrage over the two prayer centers, the masjids - one, a dozens blocks from Ground Zero, the other one shown here, four blocks away and in operation without incident since 1970.
Or the halal carts that had been serving what New Yorkers adoringly refer to as street meat to New Yorkers both before the 9/11 attacks and in the decades since.
At today's news conference in Washington, Muslim and interfaith leaders are decrying how the ginned up controversy has been used for chief political purposes.
IBRAHIM RAMEY, MUSLIM AMERICAN SOCIETY: They are good citizens. They are good Muslims and they're good human beings. And to see them demonized and drag through the mud, the way some people are willing to do for political gain or their own political issues and agendas is really reprehensible.
OLBERMANN: Let's turn first Corey Saylor, the national legislative director of CAIR, the Council on American Islamic Relations.
Mr. Saylor, thanks for your time tonight.
COREY SAYLOR, COUNCIL ON AMERICAN-ISLAMIC RELATIONS: Thanks for having me on, Keith.
OLBERMANN: Is Ground Zero and Park 51, is that a deck? Is that a feint? Is it an attempt to obscure this larger pattern of discrimination and of hatred and violence?
SAYLOR: Yes. Some times you have to wonder if somebody thinks it might be a good way to obscure other more immediate issues like the economy and what's going on in the Gulf. But, realistically, you know, it's not just this mosque in Lower Manhattan that's being attacked. It's just about every Islamic center that's trying to do any kind of construction or expansion across the country.
That has to strike everyone as deeply troubling, when any one faith can be subjected to attacks like this, with people calling for all Muslims to leave this country, other people calling for all the - no more mosque building. That can, at any point in time, be applied to other faiths in this country.
So, right now is the time for everyone to stand up and say, no, the Constitution is not subject to opinion polling. The Constitution is our founding document. We must stand by it - freedom for all religions.
OLBERMANN: Does this take you by surprise after the - say the first seven years after 9/11 when it was not perfect by any means. There was blowback against the Muslim community and the Arab communities in this country. But there was nothing that had this sort of undertone of connection to it like this seems to. Were you surprised by it?
SAYLOR: Unfortunately, no, but I think the visceral anger that we see is - I don't want to call it surprising, but what disturbs me the most -
I mean, you had in your opening segment a man place a bomb outside a mosque. Had he placed it in the right position, it would have killed or injured up to 60 people inside.
And this almost gets no news whatsoever. And there are still elements
that want to say that, you know, Muslims are the extremists, Muslims are
terrorists. And yet when Joe Stack flies an airplane into a build in Texas
that's not called terrorism. So, it seems like the label is definitely unfairly applied.
OLBERMANN: Yes, if it were - if the Muslim Americans were the committers of these attacks rather than being the victims, would there be doubt what the charges would be?
SAYLOR: No. Unfortunately, not at all. The way you smear Muslims in this country right now is you call them terrorists and unfortunately, any time someone lifts their finger, they're accused of a terrorist act. I mean, look at Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the man behind the initiative in New York. This is a guy who's been consulting with the FBI.
The Bush administration sent him overseas to try to win hearts and minds in the Muslim world. This man is renowned - Jewish, Christian leaders in New York are saying this is a man of peace. And yet, now, he's under attack and being called an extremist.
OLBERMANN: The project with which he is involved - is there any doubt that that project in Lower Manhattan is on firm legal footing?
SAYLOR: I think the vote last week shows it. You have a unanimous vote in favor of the mosque. Believe me, if there was any legal question with their right to go forward with this initiative, it would have been brought up and dealt with then.
OLBERMANN: And is there not some irony to the fact that the federal
law that would prevent New York from changing the zoning requirements or
not going along with what is legal there, was passed by Republican Houses -
the House of Representatives and Republican Senate in 2000? Something of an irony to that, don't you think?
SAYLOR: Well, I think that, unfortunately, many people in the Republican Party - I don't think the Republican Party as a whole, because you haven't heard from the RNC or Michael Steele, but the people in the Republican Party - people in the Republican Party as a whole have been leading this anti-Muslim charge. Senator Harry Reid, the Democrat, being the one lone standout on the Democratic side.
And it is troubling. I'd like the Republican Party to remember its own roots. They were the ones who - they are the party of Abraham Lincoln. They led the way in pushing slavery aside and moving our country forward. I think it's time for them to lead the way and help push aside the kind of bigotry that's focused on American Muslims right now.
OLBERMANN: Corey Saylor, Council of American-Islamic Relations - great thanks for your time tonight, sir.
SAYLOR: Appreciate it, Keith. Thank you.
OLBERMANN: For more on the overall political picture turning on this, let's turn now to our own Eugene Robinson, also associate editor, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist at "The Washington Post."
Gene, good evening.
EUGENE ROBINSON, MSNBC POLITICAL ANALYST: Good evening, Keith.
OLBERMANN: What have we not been talking about during these 24-hour news cycles that are been commandeered by the so-called mosque controversy?
ROBINSON: Oh, boy, basically anything important. We haven't been talking about the economy. We haven't been talking about Iraq or Afghanistan.
We haven't been talking about who should be elected senator or representative in the elections coming up in November. We haven't been talking about anything that - that really matters materially to the American people. We've just been talking about this non-story that is constructed on wholly false premises.
OLBERMANN: And those wholly false premises, that started in December. This was barely a blip on the radar at that point. Laura Ingraham, who let her shrill down, defended this on FOX and only when the right-wing media machine, particularly Mr. Murdoch's operations, and the Republicans, propped it up and decided this should be a story, everybody else ran with it.
Is this not what to some degree sort of textbook what the president was complaining about regarding that operation over there? You push a phony controversy long enough and eventually, actual news organizations feel some sort of bizarre obligation to report on it no matter how much it was bull - you know the rest of that word.
ROBINSON: Absolutely. And I don't know why we keep doing this. You know, we can sit around and say, well, this isn't a story. You know? Just look at what it's called. The Ground Zero mosque - well, you know, it's not at Ground Zero. It's - there's a prayer room, but it's really a community center.
Yet, we seem to be unable to help ourselves, and the right-wing image machine, which has been spectacularly effective over the last couple of years, knows this. And they know that if they can define the terms an imagery of the issue, then the battle is fought on what they consider favorable ground. And so, when you say Ground Zero mosque, well, everybody can picture the site of the World Trade Center and everybody can picture a mosque. You see minarets and maybe domes in the middle of this.
OLBERMANN: In the middle of it - in the middle of the site. That's the image.
ROBINSON: Right in the middle of it, right on top of it, when nothing could be farther from the truth. But that's what the image that I fear is in a lot of people's minds.
OLBERMANN: Yes. More people have been surprised by the idea that it's at some distance, that's it's not sitting there, you know, right next to the Burger King and Ground Zero strip joint which is across the street.
Last August, you and I were talking about town hall meetings and hysteria and death panels and hysteria and killing grandma and hysteria. Is it just August, August, or is something else going on?
ROBINSON: Well, August is August. I mean, it's traditionally thought of as a slow news month. And, in fact, there's always news in August. The problem is the news is about an inch deep. There's not that second or third story to fill those inside pages.
And so, something, you know, a live day story - a running story is something that news organizations jump at. Nonetheless, that does not take away the responsibility to sit and think - well, is this actually a story and are we actually telling the truth when we report it in the way we report it? And I don't think enough of us have stopped to think that basic thought.
OLBERMANN: Or is the story, how it has been fabricated? Why are the mainstream news organizations not when they send - when they sent out the nightly news reporters - not particular to NBC - the nightly news reporters, why they're not sending them out to do a story about how a story has been fabricated? That would be actual journalism. We don't practice it very much in this company, in this country, and in this nation, and this world.
MSNBC contributor Gene Robinson - great thanks, Gene.
ROBINSON: Great to be here, Keith.
OLBERMANN: The Gulf. His documentary on what is literally the smell test for the nation's fish yield. Spike Lee - next.
OLBERMANN: The man behind ""If God Is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise" on the Gulf Coast, and the smell test - which is the only way to tell if there's dispersant in the seafood. Sniff it.
Was it the most famous moment in sport's history? The man at its center has died.
So much for his protestations that his network supports no one. He's given the Republican Governors $1 million.
And the Tea Party reveals its plans to take over the Republican Party. It involves replacing career politicians with outsiders - like him, former Republican majority leader in the House of Representatives. How does that work exactly?
OLBERMANN: Government scientists had estimated that only about 25 percent of the Gulf oil spill remained in significant form. But a new study now says it's more like three times that amount and as much as fishermen want to get back to business, they are calling for more and more credible tests of shrimp and fish - particularly since the FDA measure for dispersants is a smell test. No figure of speech there. This smells like oysters, this smells like Windex.
Our fourth story: Day 120 of the crisis in the Gulf. The filmmaker Spike Lee joins me in a moment. Scientists at University of Georgia estimate that 70 percent to 79 percent of the spilled oil remains in the Gulf, probably below the surface.
The leader of the UGA research group saying, quote, "One major misconception is oil that has dissolved into water is gone and therefore harmless. The oil is still out there and it will likely take years to completely degrade," he said.
The UGA study is not yet published or peer-reviewed. But it raises serious questions about the claims of federal scientists. For instance, how much of that oil could have possibly evaporated by this point? And how much might still exist under water?
Both the UGA and government reports do agree that oil will continue to break down.
But meantime, shrimpers on the Gulf coast opened yesterday's fall season with skepticism, expressing concern that the government's testing was simply not adequate.
The FDA and NOAA have tested dozens of fish and shrimp in the region and given the all clear. But the trained experts use a smell test for dispersants. They literally sniff for Windex-like odor. The FDA says it is developing an actual test for dispersants in food. But an official says that dispersants in small doses are similar to what is consumed in toothpaste and other consumer products - something else for you to worry about.
The FDA also says that all seafood samples tested below the level of concern for petroleum compounds, to say nothing of streaky windshields, but David Veal of the American Shrimp Processors Association told the "Washington Post," members kept calling him with the question, "Are we sure?" His answer, "Well, it's as sure as we can be if we don't trust the FDA and other agencies - who do you trust?"
Louisiana shrimpers have asked BP for millions of dollars to pay for continued testing and requested that federal and local agencies report the results in one central location.
Let's bring in now, as promised, filmmaker Spike Lee, who's new HBO documentary, "If God is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise," premiering tonight in New Orleans. The film debuts on HBO beginning Monday of next week, the 23rd.
Spike, thanks for your time tonight.
SPIKE LEE, FILMMAKER: How you doing, Keith?
OLBERMANN: Your new documentary, the five-year anniversary of Katrina, with the, obviously, unwelcomed addition of the BP disaster. Tell us what your focus is about -
LEE: Right.
OLBERMANN: - about the documentary, itself, first.
LEE: Well, Keith, we were finished shooting before April 20th, but when the rig blew up, and, I would say, 11 people got murdered - we had to rethink the whole thing. So, we made nine trips back. So, the last hour of the four-hour piece is all about BP.
OLBERMANN: The BP disaster has produced a lot of promises from various quarters, governmentally and not from government, about what's going to be done for the Gulf Coat. Focusing on the aftermath of Katrina and the promises that were made there - how well did those first set of promises pan out? And what do they tell you about the likelihood of the second set of promises panning out?
LEE: Well, people here are still waiting for a lot of stuff that was promised from the havoc of Hurricane Katrina and the breach in the levees. And we're getting the same thing from BP. I think only 25 percent of the claims have been settled by BP.
And you see these commercials, these PSA commercials, they run day and night. They say, like - well, we'll decide if you have a legitimate claim. That's like the - the insurance companies deciding down here. Very few people got their money.
So, for me, Keith, what - the threat between the first documentary when the levees broke and this one, "If God is Willing, Da Creek Don't Rise" is greed - is all about greed. And I really think that this is going to bring about the downfall of the United States of America because we have people in office appointed and voted in and people in big business positions who only care about the dollar bill and there are people get harmed, people die. They say that's the cost of doing business.
So, it was the greed of the United States Army Corps of Engineers who
did faulty engineering that brought about the breach in the levees and BP
cutting corners down here. That blowout protector cost a half million
dollars. Now, who knows how many billions later they're paying out? If
they would have just done what they were supposed to do, but MMS was bought
out. People are going to Super Bowls (ph), sex orgies, all types of stuff
so they were corrupt.
And so, the whole thing is in disarray down here.
OLBERMANN: If it is that great a threat to the country - obviously,
the first stage in making sure that doesn't happen is to keep it front in
mind of people. Obviously, the timing of the documentary coming out when
it does now, when people seem to be getting the impression everything is
fine now because the spill is not actively spewing 40 million gallons a day
at least the timing of the documentary is good.
But are you worried this is going to recede away from the consciousness of America in the coming months?
LEE: Well, I am. That's why I'm so grateful that you have me on tonight, because within the last two weeks, we've been getting reports from these government scientists who say 75 percent of the oil has disappeared. You know, presto, chango, abracadabra, vanish. Well, my thing is 75 percent of the oil on the surface or 75 percent of the oil in the Gulf? That's the big question.
Another thing, Keith, nobody has gotten ads about BP about how many millions gallons of the dispersant - of the dispersant Corexit has gone into the Gulf? In five, 10, 15 years from now, we might find out that this Corexit was more - did more damage to the Gulf than the - than the crude oil.
OLBERMANN: So, what do you think of this latest thing that I mentioned from the University of Georgia? The scientists there are looking at the government numbers, have reinterpreted them and they say that 70 percent to 79 percent of the spilled oil remains in the Gulf below the surface.
LEE: Well, I believe that, because the same people who were saying that this is the - the government officials that were saying this is the largest oil disaster of the history of the world, two weeks later made about-face and saying 25 percent of the oil disappeared. And, to me, this shows you - to me, this shows me the power of BP and the power of the oil and gas industries which make more money than God on this planet.
Throughout this whole thing, I feel - and a lot of those people feel down here - that BP was dictating the United States government what to do. BP dictated the FAA who could fly over the site. BP dictated to the Coast Guard and Thad Allen which boats can come and go. And BP dictated the EPA - the EPA sent a letter to BP saying we have serious concerns about your dispersant Corexit. They sent back saying, we're going to use it anyway.
So, BP's been running things.
OLBERMANN: "If God Is Willing and Da Creek Don't Rise" premiering tonight in New Orleans and on HBO on Monday - Spike Lee, a pleasure as always to see you. And we've been seeing you a lot recently. Good to see you.
LEE: And, Keith -
OLBERMANN: Yes, sir?
LEE: What you did last night was phenomenal. I was jumping up and down in my kitchen. What you did last night with your "Special Comment" - much love for you. Much love for you.
OLBERMANN: I'm honored, sir. See you soon. Thanks again for taking some time.
LEE: OK.
OLBERMANN: And to a cause dear to us here at Countdown with which you have helped immensely. The National Association of Free Clinics is staging another event, as we've mentioned. This one will be held in New Orleans on August 31st and September 1st.

Rupert Murdoch gives some Republicans $1 million worth of help. How is this news again?
OLBERMANN: A quick re-clarification. I asked earlier why nightly news reporters didn't spend more time doing stories about the fabrication of political controversies. NBC's newscast is called "NBC Nightly News," but I was not directing my rhetorical question to its reporters, but rather, all those who report the news on a nightly basis on TV, radio, and the Internet.
So, my apologies to my friend Brian Williams and his staff who do such a good job that I think of all reporting as nightly news.
Now a brief farewell. In seven weeks, it will have been 60 years since what remains the most iconic moment in the history of baseball, if not in all of American sports. Sadly, the man who did it will not be there.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: (INAUDIBLE). The giants win the pennant! The giants win! They're going crazy. They're going crazy.
OLBERMANN: Fifty nine years ago, Bobby Thomson, whose bottom of the ninth last game of the special playoffs home run capped the New York Giants' impossible comeback against their cross town rivals, the Brooklyn Dodgers, on October 3rd, 1951. Died yesterday after a long illness and a fall. All you truly need to know about Bobby Thomson the man was that he was so unassuming that for nearly all the years after "The Shot Heard Around the World" in '51, he remained listed in the local phonebook.
Let's play Oddball.
We begin in West Sussex, in England, where it's a bird; it's a plane; it's the International Bird Man Competition. Up in the air, junior bird man, up in the air, upside down. Close to 10,000 watched this nonsense. Mary Poppins, greatest rodent spy in the world. That's Mary, I suppose. There was a prize. The greatest rodent spy is there. There was a prize to anyone who could travel 100 meters in the air. Many tried hang glider-like machines. It's kind of cheating. Unfortunately, none of those not so high flyers are able to glide the 100 meters and the prize remained unclaimed and there was a lot of release, rotation, splash.
To Budapest, where the power of Christ compels you to skate. Meet Reverend Zoltan Lidvy (ph) who's been wowing the congregation with his sick shredding skills. He learned to skate when he was 14, but only recently figured out he could draw people to the church with his board. No official word if the Pope is in favor of this new gnarly recruiting plan. But Benedict should be very careful. Remember the trouble John Paul had after he endorsed the hackie sack.
Million dollars from Rupert Murdoch's company to the Republican Governor's Association. I'm sorry, a million dollars in cash. Not just the free pub. Next.
OLBERMANN: Last night on his program, Bill O'Reilly went after MSNBC's parent company, GE, for something that even O'Reilly acknowledged was hard to get outraged about. It was not news, but it appears to have come in response to some over the top remarks made here last week about O'Reilly. Having stated that as preamble, our third story is not a case of tit for tat, as demonstrated by the fact that it's not about O'Reilly and it was not us who put it in the headlines.
Our third story tonight was broken by "Business Week" magazine, was picked up all over the Internet today. The story, Fox News has put its money where its mouth is. You may remember that this spring Rupert Murdoch, chairman and CEO of the Fox News parent News Corp, was asked by the progressive media watchdog group Media Matters about Fox News' open endorsements of right wing Tea Party events.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Is it appropriate for a news network to engage in that much politics?
RUPERT MURDOCH, NEWS CORP CHAIRMAN AND CEO: No, I don't think we should be supporting the Tea Party or any other party. But I'd like to investigate what you're saying before I condemn anyone.
OLBERMANN: Fox News never released the findings of Mr. Murdoch's investigation. But two months later, we now know on June 24th, News Corp wrote a check to the Republican Party for a million dollars. The check was made out to the RGA, Republican Governors Association. Such massive donations are not permitted for federal campaigns. News Corp "Business Week" reports, the single largest corporate donor to the RGA. Murdoch's money accounting for five percent of the RGA's total fund-raising in the quarter.
By contrast, the largest donation to the Democratic Governors Association was half a million, which came from the union representing municipal workers. Without explaining the disconnect with Mr. Murdoch's statement that his company could not or should not support any party, a News Corp spokesman said today, quote, "News Corporation believes in the power of free markets and the RGA's pro-business agenda supports our priorities at this critical time for our economy."
Also, News Corp actually - rather, actively "supports organizations that advocate a pro-job, low tax, economic growth agenda."
As Media Matters has noted, Fox has not only employed numerous Republican politicians, at least two of whom actually were Republican governors, many of whom are active GOP fund-raiser on air and off. But many of its media employees have also raised money for the party or openly campaigned for or endorsed Republican candidates.
Let's turn to Eric Burns, president of Media Matters for America.
Thanks for your time tonight, sir.
ERIC BURNS, PRESIDENT, MEDIA MATTERS FOR AMERICA: Thanks for having me, Keith.
OLBERMANN: We now have another million reasons Fox News is the Republican news channel, correct?
BURNS: At least and then some. It was a year ago, Keith, thereabouts, when I came on this program and said the evidence showed that Fox News was no longer a news organization, but had turned into a political operation. Since then, as you alluded to in the lead-in, they've sponsored Tea Party protests. They've hosted them, organized them. We have Fox News activists and employees out there raising money on behalf of Republican candidates and causes.
In fact, in this last year, they've raised more than 50 million dollars for Republican candidates and causes. They're smearing Democrats on a near daily basis on Fox News. They're actually creating the talking points that elected officials and candidates on the Republican side are using.
Of course, now we have this unprecedented million dollar donation to defeat Democratic governors from the company, itself. And, you know, they're really doing everything that the RNC should be doing. They just do it a lot better.
OLBERMANN: Why is it a problem? I mean, the right's going to point to me and to Rachel Maddow and say, look, MSNBC does the same thing. And we decided it would be an appropriate moment to mention that our parent company, GE, gave 105,000 dollars to the Democratic Gubernatorial Association and also to the Republican Gubernatorial Association 105,000 dollars, a complete 50/50 split, just for the record.
BURNS: Look, that's hugely different than what we've seen News Corp do. They've given a million dollars, as you said the largest contribution to the RGA, and they've only given it to one side. So it's completely partisan gift on their part. When you lump it on top of everything else they're doing, it's a huge problem for Fox.
The reality is this is not a news organization. Every time they say it's a news organization, it's a lie. They say they're fair and balanced. That's a lie. You know, as you said earlier, when Rupert Murdoch, chairman of News Corp, was asked if this is something Fox should be engaged in, he said no. He promised to investigate. That never happened. I guess the as a result of that investigation was he decided to donation to defeat Republican governors - Democratic governors, excuse me.
OLBERMANN: He investigated and discovered that there was not enough money coming out of his pocket to the Republicans.
BURNS: Exactly.
OLBERMANN: Why, though - what enabled them, or made them feel, I don't know, powerful enough or not - cavalier enough, perhaps, to stop playing coy about this? I mean, there's been a wrist slap here or there when somebody raised funds too obviously or stood there with their hands out, one of the hosts and said, give me the money. Are all bets off or on? I mean, I'm asking you to speculate to some degree. Why now?
BURNS: Look, we're coming to the homestretch of the campaign season. This election in November, there's a lot on the line. Fox clearly has a vested interest, partisan interest in the outcome of this election, not just at the national level, but at the state levels as well. I think it's important for folks to remember that we just had a census in this country which means we're about to go through another round of redistricting. If you have more Republican governors in more state houses, that means we're going to see a more - a more likelihood there's going to be a repeat of what we saw in Texas with Tom Delay in the mid-decade redistricting, where they essentially stole seven congressional seats.
So they have the ability, if they have enough Republican governors in place, to really influence the makeup of the Congress for many years to come.
OLBERMANN: Media Matters for America President Eric Burns. Eric, thanks for your time tonight.
BURNS: Thank you, Keith.
OLBERMANN: So Dick Armey is trying to lead a Tea Party takeover of the GOP from the professional politicians. A, he's got amnesia, or B, Dick Armey just admitted he's not a professional politician?
This woman is tonight's worst person in the world. That's on a night with a Limbaugh and a Beck.
And at the top of the hour on "THE RACHEL MADDOW SHOW," a look at the road from no controversy to faux controversy for Park 51.
OLBERMANN: On the day President Obama announced the August 31st deadline for pulling American combat forces out of Iraq, he also warned, quote, "there's still those with bombs and bullets who will try to stop Iraq's progress." This morning in Baghdad, a suicide bomber wearing a vest packed with explosives and nails proved the president's words prescient. On the seventh day of Ramadan and the final day of an Iraqi military recruitment drive, about 1,000 applicants lined up outside an Army base near central Baghdad's Mayadan (ph) Square. Among them was a suicide bomber who blended in with the crowd before blowing himself up.
Reuters reported 47 were killed. The Associated Press count is 61. Some of the wounded were so desperate for work that the injuries were treated at the hospital and then returned to the scene of the bombing, only to be turned away.
White House Press Secretary - Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton saying today that the president was aware of this morning's deadly blast. Mr. Burton also telling reporters we're confident that we're moving toward the end of our combat mission in Iraq.
That assertion supported by the ceremony held yesterday in Northern Baghdad, where the U.S. handed Iraqi security forces control over a large portion of Joint base Balad, one of the largest military bases in the country.
Worst persons next on COUNTERDOWN.
OLBERMANN: Tea Party Astroturfers admit they're trying a hostile takeover of the Republicans. That's next, but first get out your pitchforks and torches, time for tonight's worst persons in the world.
Our bronze to Tokyo Rose Limbaugh, who claims President Obama is, quote, "bragging about his administration's accomplishments, accusing Republicans of trying to return to the policies of George W. Bush. Oh, what we wouldn't give to go back a year and a half. Just turn back the hands of time, before the stimulus bill, before all that rot gut bailout stuff. What a scam. We're all hoodwinked. Well, not hoodwinked. We were jobbed. Phony crisis. Imminent destruction of the world economic system unless we bailed out this and bailed out that."
Yes, that's right, George W. Bush did say all that about the crisis and the imminent destruction of the world economic system. McCain, too, and Limbaugh. Indeed, what we wouldn't give to go back a year and a half, back when Tokyo Rose Limbaugh had lied for a year and a half less.
The runner, Lonesome Rhodes Beck, as he smeared Faisal Abdul Rauf, the man who would be the imam inside the prayer space in the community center in Lower Manhattan, Beck did something fascinating. This is Beck condemning something Rauf about 9/11 on 9/30, 2001.
GLENN BECK, FOX NEWS ANCHOR: He also said, quote, "I wouldn't say the United States deserved what happened on 9/11. But the United States' policies were an accessory to the crime that happened."
OLBERMANN: Beck of course left out the context. Rauf had just said that we in this country ally ourselves with oppressive regimes in many of these countries. So that was Beck about what Rauf thinks about 9/11; we didn't deserve it, but our national actions contributed to what happened because we ally ourselves with oppressive regimes. This next clip is Beck from four months ago about what Beck thinks about 9/11.
BECK: When people say they hate us - well, did we deserve 9/11? No. But were we minding our business? No. Were we in bed with dictators and abandon our values and principles? Yes. That causes problems.
OLBERMANN: Oh, ally yourself with oppressive regimes, in bed with dictators; you and Rauf agree. Beck's got his own problem tonight. His colleague, Greta Van Susteren, has blogged that he should move his rally on the anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream Speech" to a venue other than the Lincoln Memorial.
But our winner is Tiffany Bray of Fletcher, Oklahoma. Since July 19th, when she borrowed somebody's SUV and left to go shopping in nearby Lawton, her friends and family, led by her fiance, have searched for the missing woman. They had no contact with her since a terrifying text message on the 23rd which authorities did not release, but which was described by her brother-in-law as, quote, "obvious and very indicative that she's in danger." A State Bureau of Investigation spokesperson said Bray's life was at risk. Quote, "we have to imagine that she could be held against her will. And if so, by whom, and where they are, and how we can get her back safely."
The fiance was suspected and polygraphed. Local and state cops and detectives throughout Oklahoma were called on. Texas Rangers became involved. Tens of thousands of dollars was spent and a Find Tiffany website was created. Last Friday, 26 days after she vanished, they found Tiffany Bray. Her body was found in a hotel room in Corpus Christi, Texas. The body was found near the body of a man. There was nothing wrong with either of the bodies. Tiffany and the guy were alive and well. It was that that man was not her fiance. And she hadn't been kidnapped. And she just hadn't told anybody.
Police have charged her with obstructing officers and for borrowing the car. They say she'll have to pay for every dime they spent. The fiance says he'll never speak to her again, that he doesn't want her to go to jail, though he thinks he should, and that at least this explains why before she vanished certain of her personal items also disappeared from her house.
Tiffany Bray of Fletcher, Oklahoma, today's worst person in the world.
OLBERMANN: Grim news revealed early this morning, one can speculate just how members of the Grand Old Party are coping: anger, disbelief, worst of all, culture shock. Our number one story, Republican party officials preparing for a hostile takeover by other Republican party officials pretending to be non-politicians.
Well known Astroturf activists Dick Armey and Matt Kibbe firing off the warning signal to their former employers by way of a "Wall Street Journal" op-ed. "Let us be clear about one thing. The Tea Party movement is not seeking a junior partnership with the Republican party, but a hostile takeover of it."
Both men facing the insurmountable task of merging the interest of the Tea Party with those of the older Tea Party. Trying their best to outline the difference, "the Tea Party movement has blossomed into a powerful social phenomenon because it's leaderless, not directed by any one mind" - boy, Dr. Freud would have fun with this sentence - "political party or parochial agenda."
Former RNC staff member Kibbe left behind the shackles of the GOP and its corporate interests to grow those side burns. I mean, I'm sorry. To head up the corporately owned and operated Tea Party organization, Freedom Works. Mr. Kibbe - any other shot available at all? Mr. Kibbe also a former Republican congressional aide, speaking to the lack of politics within the Tea Party movement earlier.
MATT KIBBE, FMR., RNC STAFFER: This is a revolution from the bottom up. This is the real people saying politics is too important to leave it to the politicians. 1994 was an inside job of a few true believers that sort of took over the Republican Caucus.
OLBERMANN: The terrible outcome of that inside job elevating Mr.
Kibbe's partner, Dick Armey, to House Majority Leader. Fortunately, Mr. Armey is now a lobbyist and chairman of Freedom Works. So he's not involved on the inside of Washington at all. Earlier he lauded the virtues of the Tea Party movement, without discrediting the well-known diversity of the GOP.
DICK ARMEY, FMR. HOUSE MAJORITY LEADER: You walk among these folk, the first thing you're going to see is, these folks are just like me.
OLBERMANN: Joining me now is Alex Pareene, writer for the "War-Room Blog" for Salon.com. Thanks for your time tonight, sir.
ALEX PAREENE, SALON.COM: Thanks for having me on.
OLBERMANN: All right, got to start with the obvious questions.
What's the deal with Kibbe's side burns?
PAREENE: You know, I'm actually really glad I did not show up with that exact same facial hair today.
OLBERMANN: Seriously. How does somebody as inside politics, as classic smoke-filled room as Dick Armey, say what he said without the entire nation bursting into laughter as he said it?
PAREENE: Well, large sections of the nation I'm sure were bursting into laughter. But he says it because he's a professional. It's what he does. He's a lobbyist and his job is to sort of pretend or invent a ground swell of popular support for positions that he basically is paid to take.
OLBERMANN: I'm going to ask the same question from three different angles. From the viewpoint of the Tea Party, why did these guys say this now?
PAREENE: Well, from the view point of the Tea Party, why they said it now is that they have a book to sell and there's an election coming up. That's always a good time to sell your political book and try to get your like-minded friends elected.
OLBERMANN: Version number two. From the viewpoint of what they want the Republicans to think, why did these guys say this now?
PAREENE: Well, they want the Republicans to, I mean, basically toe the line and to also, I mean, get excited because now is their chance to, like really prove that all Americans really think the way they do about the capital gains tax. So it's encouraging them to - you know, to really stick with it.
OLBERMANN: Lastly, version number three, from the viewpoint of what they want the Democrats to think, why did these guys say this now?
PAREENE: They want the Democrats to be terrified. They want the Democrats to be utterly terrified of passing any progressive legislation or acting on any liberal priorities. They want the Democrats to feel like the best thing to do is just sort of lay down and die and hope that there will be some of them left in Washington in January.
OLBERMANN: With the Tea Party, there's always, as you know better than I do, a scam somewhere. Is there evidence of a new scam or is there something else going on that we're just not seeing that's below the surface?
PAREENE: It's not really a new scam. It's sort of the oldest scam in the world, in which the sort of ultra-rich, not just the wealthy, but the incredibly rich, pay people to promulgate their opinion that the ultra-rich are better than us and shouldn't ever have to give their money up.
OLBERMANN: What's the weakness? When you see people going and being so profoundly self-adoring like that, there's always a weakness that they're trying to prevent you. There's always the magician's misdirection involved. Is there something about the Tea Party that Armey and Kibbe have just realized that they're trying to cover up before anybody catches on?
PAREENE: Well, I think when you get basically a big white populist movement in response to Democrats taking control, what you don't - what you want to happen is that they're going to go around marching against, like, Democratic priorities. You don't want that they're going to go around marching against immigrants and against black people. Not to say that the Tea Parties are racist, but when you have all these white populists together, the fringe people are going to show up. When you just want to harness their power to get your taxes cut, you might be a little upset when they have other priorities beyond making sure you're not paying too much.
OLBERMANN: Does Mr. Armey, do you think, regret that last quote that we played, "if you walk among these folks, the first thing you're going to say is these focus are just like me? Is he saying everybody look like Dick Armey?
PAREENE: God, in his - he might dream of an America where that's true.
OLBERMANN: The Dick Armey army.
PAREENE: Basically, that's exactly what the Tea Party is, in a sense.
OLBERMANN: Only with those sideburns. Alex Pareene of Salon.com, thanks for playing along. I appreciate it.
PAREENE: Thanks for having me.
OLBERMANN: That's Countdown for this August 17th, 2010. It is the 2,665th day since President Bush declared mission accomplished in Iraq, the 2,254th day since he declared victory in Afghanistan, and the first day since Rod Blagojevich was found guilty of covering up something they didn't convict him for. We didn't cover that tonight? Darn.
I'm Keith Olbermann, good night and good luck.
And now the provenance of the far right's latest big lie, the non-mosque that isn't at Ground Zero; in for Rachel Maddow tonight, Chris Hayes. Good evening, Chris.

As businesses become more global in nature, so do the incidents that target them—and companies need to be prepared to address international incidents – whether cyber events, terrorist attacks or even the impacts of a natural disaster.
Encryption: What is It and Why is this Just Your First Step to Secure Communications?
By @vaporstream on
- Cyber Security
Encryption. It's a word we hear frequently in the media. Encrypted applications should have backdoors, insists one popular publication. No, it should not, insists another. But what is it actually and why is it so important? Below, are some thoughts. Simply put, encryption is the translation of data into a secret code.
HHS Gets Serious About Healthcare Emergency Preparedness & Communications

Revive Therapeutics Advances Research Program of Cannabinoid-Based Drug Delivery Technology for the Medical Marijuana and Pharmaceutical Markets
September 12, 2017 07:00 ET | Source: Revive Therapeutics Ltd.
TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Sept. 12, 2017) - Revive Therapeutics Ltd. ("Revive" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:RVV) (OTCQB:RVVTF), a company focused on the research, development and commercialization of novel treatments for serious and unmet medical needs, today announced the advancement of the research program with the University of Wisconsin-Madison to evaluate a novel drug delivery technology with a focus on cannabinoids for the potential to treat various diseases, such as pain and inflammation for the medical marijuana and pharmaceutical markets for Canada and the United States. The Company intends to develop novel therapies and partner with licensed medical marijuana producers and partner with pharmaceutical companies requiring a unique and validated drug delivery technology for their development and commercial therapeutic pipelines.
"We are very excited to begin the development of a novel drug delivery system to deliver cannabinoids for the potential to treat various diseases including pain and inflammation," said Craig Leon, Chief Executive Officer of Revive. "The development of a drug delivery technology that can safely and effectively deliver cannabinoids is an important initiative for Revive as it complements our product pipeline of cannabinoid-based therapeutics and it is part of our focus on building out a proprietary intellectual property franchise that will enable us to seek commercial partnerships with medical marijuana and pharmaceutical companies."
The research program will be led by Jess D. Reed, Ph.D., Professor of Animal Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Under the agreement, Dr. Reed and his research team will evaluate the role and potential use of a chitosan-tannins based formula for the delivery of cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol, in hydrogel formulations in anti-inflammatory and wound infection models. The research will be based on Dr. Reed's patented technology in the use of tannin-chitosan composites for therapeutic biomaterials.
"I am very excited to begin the development of a novel drug delivery technology that will deliver cannabinoids for treating various diseases, such as pain and inflammation," said Dr. Jess D. Reed, Professor of Animal Nutrition at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. "The opportunities for delivering cannabinoids for unmet medical needs are numerous and I am honoured to assist Revive in achieving its objectives in commercializing novel cannabinoid-based therapies."
The Company's proposed transdermal drug delivery technology aims to deliver cannabidiol, which has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, in combination with chitosan and tannins. The chitosan has blood-clotting and antimicrobial properties, and tannins have antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant and wound healing properties. The combination of cannabidiol, chitosan and tannins is believed to have synergistic effect and has the potential to become the next generation drug delivery solution for cannabinoids to treat a wide variety of diseases, disorders and conditions such as pain (i.e. neuropathic pain) and various skin disorders (i.e. acne, psoriasis). The Company's objective is to validate the drug delivery technology with cannabidiol and expand its use with a number of cannabinoids, and small and large molecule drugs.
About Revive Therapeutics Ltd.

Inaugural summer camp has kids loving Latin
by used view
When Spotsylvania County Schools started cutting middle school language classes, one student in particular was quite upset. Paige Receveur's younger brother wanted to take Latin at Freedom Middle School but there weren't enough students signed up for the class. Receveur states that her brother "saw me in Latin in at Riverbend High and wanted to, I guess, follow in my footsteps." Unfortunately there were only seven students in the class and, according to Receveur, the class needed twenty students to run. So after attending the 2012 National Latin Convention and hearing a workshop on hosting language outreach programs, Receveur came up with an idea to help boost interest in Latin and in turn, boost class enrollment.
"Coming up with the idea was easy," said Receveur, "it was putting into practice that was work." Helping her implement her outreach idea was her Latin teacher and Riverbend High Latin Club sponsor, Mark Keith. "Paige got the idea for the camp as an extension of the outreach program she started in the fall," replied Keith. "She is very interested in helping younger students find the excitement of the language. Learning Latin helps understand our debt to the ancient world and how it impacted our modern world." Keith goes on to say the learning Latin "helps with our modern language and vocabulary" and is a "great preliminary for taking the SATs and any pre-law and medicine."
Receveur created the Ursus Outreach program in the fall of 2012 where upper-level Latin students went to the neighboring elementary school and taught mini lessons to two 5th grade classes. "Ursus is the Latin name for bear, and Riverbend's mascot is the bear, so we thought it was a great name," beamed Receveur. "And the summer camp is an extension of our school program."
The Ursus Outreach Summer Camp offers crafts and activities for 1st through 7th graders. One young camper named Atlee said that it was "fun to learn about Greek and Roman gods and goddesses." She went on to explain that her favorite goddess was Artemis and she painted a flower pot with an arrow "because she's strong and a hunter". The children's activities included drawing, reenacting a gladiator march, and completing a Latin scavenger hunt.
The Ursus Outreach is helped by Riverbend High School's Latin students and the national Ascanius Youth Classics Institute. Kevin Jefferson, Director of Student Programs, said, "Our main focus is creating programs for Kindergarten through 8th grade students to help get the word out about Ancient History and the Classics." Jefferson goes on to say that programs such as Receveur's make the Classics "fun and relatable to today's youth."
Receveur sums up her passion for the program stating that "we can target the younger students, around 5th grade, by putting much of the psychology behind the critical period in learning languages. We have to reach them young." Receveur is taking her passion on to college where she will attend Ohio State in the fall pursuing her Classics major.
