CHRISTMAS IN BELGIUM, 1944


The text reads:

Dec. 23, 1944 - "Battle of the Bulge" - An entire U.S. armored division was retreating from the Germans in the Ardennes forest when a sergeant in a tank destroyer spotted an American digging a foxhole. The GI, PFC Martin, 325th Glider Infantry Regiment, looked up and asked, "Are you looking for a safe place?" "Yeah" answered the tanker. "Well, buddy," he drawled, "just pull your vehicle behind me...

I'M THE 82nd AIRBORNE, AND THIS IS AS FAR AS THE BASTARDS ARE GOING."







Sean Linnane interviews an American paratrooper veteran of the Bulge . . .

Accomplishing failure.........from Rico

Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, we have a Congress and mis-Administration trying to mimic the failed policies of our former communist adversaries?

Socialism does NOT work!
-In the 'War on Poverty' the poor lost the most.
-Gooberment healthcare ain't healthy. Or cheap!

America has now been put into a decline that follows the pattern of Detroit. Complete economic and political failure.

this is not a B+, but an F. Failure. An "unprecedented" failure, Comrade dear Reader Obama/Soetero. You radical Commie moron!

We're #1!............from Rico

We're #1! Bite THIS Zimbabwe!!

At ALL levels (federal, state. local and GSE's) the total US public debt is 141% of GDP.
- This puts the US in the company of Lebanon and Zimbabwe.

Include US household debt (the highest in the world at 99% of GDP) and corporate debt (also the highest in the world at 317% of GDP) and you get an "unprecedented" debt of 557% of GDP.

But it gets even better. Add the unfunded entitlement programs and we're at 840% of GDP! How's that for "unprecedented?"

This pretty much assures three things:
1. Our dysfunctional politicians will raise taxes to nose-bleed levels to "buy" some time.
2. Financial devastation.
3. IF the public ever figures out they've been baboozled, they're going to look for rope to string the politicians up!

So TAKE THAT, Zimbabwe! WE'RE NUMBER ONE!!!!! Obamanomics seems to have trumped Mugabenomics.....

ps - If you wonder what a US sovereign default will look like, watch Greece. If you can print your own money you cannot default/go broke, but you CAN destroy your currency.

Movie Review: 'Avatar'



Short Review: I want to put this as plainly as I can. This film is so uniquely awful that it should be legal for me to enslave and neuter any movie critic who gives it a positive review. They should be forced to do my yard work and clip my toenails.

Cognitive dissonence, or............from Rico

Cognitive dissonance, or the suspension of disbelief?

Gee, the "official" and media-reported numbers do not match your personal and business experience?
- Unemployment? Inflation? GDP? All the statistics today are 'cooked.'

Manipulated government numbers and biased/slanted reporting is the reason collars and cuffs obviously do not match.
- Perception IS reality today, so cooking the books....baldly LYING to the public...."looking good" is clearly more important to these con-artists than actually "doing" any good. It's a helluva lot easier, too.

Shadow Stat's tells us why. Look at the following...

Heart of Darkness..............from Rico

CRE. Commercial Real Estate has fallen 37% in value this year. Not such a big deal...until you understand that $3 trillion in commercial real estate loans are outstanding, and defaults are at a 16-year high now BEFORE many of these loans reach their refinance dates!

The CRE implosion will take down many hundreds of banks in the next few years, and are ticking financial bombs on the balance sheets of thousands of banks.

- As an aside: We ALL know Rahm Emmanuel is a bare-knuckles politician of the Chicago political machine. What I did NOT know before today is that he was a 'bagman' (euphamistically called a 'fundraiser') for then Mayor Richard Daly.
