Who you gonna believe?......from Rico

Who are you going to believe? Business/corporate "insiders" or our beloved FED?

Bloomberg reports that the latest ratio of "insider" selling to buying was 1,411 to 1. Yes, to ONE.

The businessmen on the inside, the 'smart' guys [read: anyone NOT in the Government or in Media] see us swirling the drain. They are not putting their money into what they know best and better than anybody...their businesses!
- Guess they just aren't 'buying' the FED's "reflation" story or the Government & Media's "recovery" story.

Only a moron would roll the dice in a rigged Socialist casino....

David Horowitz in Beverly Hills: 'Crush the Arabs Militarily'

See the full report, with photos, at American Power: "David Horowitz at 'Securing America's Future' in Beverly Hills."

An excerpt:

While I was impressed with both Cliff May and Mona Charen --- and I was thrilled at the chance to see them speak --- the night truly belonged to David Horowitz. During the audience question time, one attendee --- sitting in the front row a few seats to the left of me --- asked about Israel's security, that by defending the country by force didn't Israel "risk World War III?" This question really animated David Horowitz, and he came back again to the issue of political willpower. He said the it wasn't just the PA or Hamas that rejected Israel's right to resist, but the Palestinians themselves. They'd been trying to drive the Jews into the sea since the 1920s. Current efforts at "peace" were thus systematically doomed to fail since there is no support among Palestinians for the preservation of the Israeli state. Whenever Israel had made concessions to the peace process the security situation has deteriorated. What the Palestinians would understand is hard power. Israel should have "carpet bombed" Gaza after the rockets started raining down on schoolyards in Sderot after the 2005 Israeli withdrawal. Until the Israel government is willing to "crush" the Arabs militarily there will never be any movement toward lasting peace.
As always, more great blogging at American Power.

The snoops are coming: Obama wants a back door to our social media | Washington Examiner

Privacy advocates, libertarians and wanna-be tech entrepreneurs were given something more to be concerned about yesterday. Hot on the heals of the infamous and disturbing “internet kill switch” pushed by the Obama administration, comes the social media snoop code requirement.

The Sudanese Intervention of 2011




Amazing!

Despite the fact that 44's UN Lady is a smoking choking expert texpert on the Hitlerian scale genocide fields of Sudan and 44's appearance at the UN's Sudan hook up - events are cruising toward conflict betwixt the m'Hammedist North and Xian South


Le Stache' Grande' explains

''...Ticking time bomb" is the entirely accurate way Secretary of State  Hillary Rodham Clinton recently described Sudan. There is every  indication the country is nearing a breakup, almost certainly into its  northern and southern halves, and perhaps additional fragments. 

"...The  central question is not if dissolution will occur, but whether it will  proceed relatively peacefully or whether renewed military conflict  inside Sudan is inevitable, possibly spilling into neighboring  countries.

Oh snap!  


Bordering 9 (!) different nation states in Africa - if Sudan gets totally off the hook - again - a fully crunk intervention would most likely not stop 'til the world's very first sitting head of state indicted for war crimes and crimes against humanity either goes Milosevic' or Ceausescu

Either way is fine

Numbah Ten!.......from Rico

The FTSE, DAX, S&P, and NIKKEI have all been chugging along, seemingly 'flat' or slightly negative if you do not consider the debasement and devaluation of their fiat currencies.

Central Banks, however, seem to understand that the 'jig' is up and have suddenly reversed-trend and have stopped selling physical gold.

And meanwhile, back at the ranch the American retail investor (Mom & Pop) still believing that USG debt is the safest place to be right now are buying bonds to the endless drumbeat from the FTV (CNBC, MSNBC) chanting "We're #1! We're #!!" quite oblivious to their real world ranking as #10 safest sovereign debtor.
- Some of my Vietnam-era colleagues may remember the expression "numbah ten" which meant very bad, the worst.

This is "numbah ten" defined, and it's gonna get worse from here...

VBS TV: Detroit Lives VBS Part 1

The Motor City has been declared dead more times than Rasputin. But over the last few years, while The News Media (and Dutch tourists) were hemming and hawing over a few neglected streets that had started to look more like meadows, a bunch of creative badasses were quietly buying abandoned 9-story buildings, filling them with everyone they knew, and making Detroit actually pretty incredible. Johnny Knoxville paid a visit to the D to explore for himself.

Just say "NUTS!"...............from Rico

What a great way to start the week.

Buried in fawning stories from the lapdog media trying to convince me WHY and HOW "Health Care Reform" is not the steaming load of manure that it always was...and still is!
The AP, MSNBC, et al are running stories titled "Health Care Reforms Kick-in. What they mean to you."
- Well, let's call these 'stories' what they really are: fairy tales; propaganda; lies.

All these stories lie by omission, and artfully dodge pesky facts like:
- This has nothing to do with reforming heallth care or making it better, but shredding many of the articles in our Bill of Rights.

And while the Obamunists are busily wiping their kollectiv posteriors with our Constitution, all of you homeowners just lost another 3.8% off of the value of your homes!
- Yeah, ObamaCare TAXES 3.8% of the sale of your residences just at the time when many of them are paid for and 'boomers' are down-sizing into smaller homes for retirement purposes. The flaming Obamunists want their cut of your retirement fund$.

All is not lost. We need to repeal this unconstitutional and illegal 'law of the land' the Sozialist-Kommunist-Demokratishes Partei has imposed upon us right after we kick their "asses" (pun intentional, the Ass appropriately being the Party Logo of the Democrats (C)....well, until the 'new' one resembling a toilet bowl (D) anyway)!
- Remember the surrounded 101st Airborne at Bastogne in WWII and just say (as did they in response to the proposal they surrender): "NUTS!"
