He's joking, right?............from Rico
Surely the Beard (Ben Bernanke) is joking. Ben of the Fed actually said with a straight face that the recession (depression) has ended. He's kidding, right?
- Sure, take his word for it. Go right ahead, but if bullshit was money we'd all be billionaires too!!!
Trying to sustain the unsustainable.
Debt in the US banking system is being absorbed by the Fed. Almost all major banks are bankrupt. You do not want to have a lot of money in banks, CD's, annuities or US Gov't obligations (the USG is bankrupt too).
Whether the Fed self-destructs from absorbing bad debt, or is legislatively killed, the Treasury and Goldman Sachs-JP Morgan could partly fill the role of the Fed between them, but whatever happens it seems that the US Dollar is being sacrificed to save the equities and bond markets.
Last May the Dollar was at 89.5 on the USDX (a peak). Look for 71.2 by end october or year end. Next level will eventually be 40-55 where I expect an official devaluation.
- The 'old' dollar will be replaced by a 'new' dollar. Between 2010-2012?
Unrelated, sort of.
Just to sweeten your day, policies of the current mis-administration seem so wrong-headed as to be funny...were they not being vigorously pursued! Think I'm being partisan and harsh?
Consider this - Thanks to FOIA we know that the Obama Administration has privately concludedthat the cap-and-trade law will cost American taxpayers $200 billion per year (the equivalent of hiking personal income taxes by 15%). Sadly, this is not the only scheme in the works.
Competition is fierce inside the beltway for the newest Czar position: Boob Czar.

MARINE CHARGED WITH FAKING WAR WOUNDS, DECORATIONS FOR GAIN
I'm re-posting this story on STORMBRINGER because it's always good to bust phony war heroes. The way I learned it, it's one thing to be woofing some far-out war stories to some blonde in a bar, but you never lie to a fellow warrior. This douchebag took it above and beyond that, he not only lied to his own Corps, he lied to the kids. The good news is it looks like he will do some hard time for his phony valor. Read on . . . S.L.
Marine Sgt. David W. Budwah, phoney wannabe.
This worthless piece of human debris scammed his own Corps, he scammed America, and worst of all, he scammed kids. Read what he did -

These incredible images of waves were taken by the #1 photographer of surf: Clark Little. He has dedicated his life to photographing the waves and has published a selection of the best images of his career. He captures magical moments inside the "tube", as surfers say.

Eat right..........
Make sure you get your daily dose of fruits and veggies.
Take your vitamins and bump up your vitamin C.
Get plenty of exercise because exercise helps build your immune system.
Walk for at least an hour a day, go for a swim, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.
Wash your hands often. If you can’t wash them, keep a bottle of antibacterial stuff around.
Get lots of fresh air. Open doors & windows whenever possible.
Try to eliminate as much stress from your life as you can.
Get plenty of rest.
OR ………
Take the doctor’s approach.
Think about it…
When you go for a shot, what do they do first?
They clean your arm with alcohol…
Why?
Because alcohol KILLS GERMS.
So…….
I walk to the liquor store. (exercise)
I put lime in my Corona (fruit)
Celery in my Bloody Mary (veggies)
Drink outdoors on the bar patio..(fresh air)
Tell jokes, laugh….(eliminate stress)
Then pass out. (rest)
The way I see it…
If you keep your alcohol levels up, flu germs can’t get you.
My grandmother always said, “A shot in the glass is better than one in the ass.”

What would we DO without the UK?............from Rico
Seriously, what WOULD we all DO without the UK? I mean the media in the US completely sucks and is quite worthless and unreliable as a source of information.
Sure, it works a treat as the Obamunist's media propaganda organ, but it's otherwise completely worthless.
For my fellow-Americans, to spare you the drivel of Couric and Olberman, et al, here is a snippet from The Telegraph, London UK.
HSBC's currency chief says: "The dollar looks awfully like the sterling after the first world war."
These are solemn words worth paying attention to my friends. We are truly in for a shellacking, Chris mathews 'tingly leg feeling' notwithstanding.
Avast!!! You should feel the 'tingling' elsewhere fairly soon mateys! Here is a nautical picture which fits the...er, theme quite nicely. "Titan Uranus" indeed, swabbies.

Contract from America launched
Contract from America
“We the People” to Assert the Power to Guide Legislative Direction
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 21, 2009
Contact: Ryan Hecker (215.880.2430) or Greg Holloway (512.585.7631)
In an initiative that harkens to the core principles of the Declaration of Independence, the Tea Party Patriots and other grassroots activists have established a project which will enable the American people to establish legislative priorities for their representatives. This new project, called “Contract from America,” offers the public the opportunity to make specific legislative suggestions in thirteen areas of public policy, ranging from health care to ethics reform, energy and environmental issues.
In true grassroots style, Ryan Hecker, from Houston, Texas, conceptualized and created the Contract from America, and brought it to the Tea Party Patriots. In discussing the project, he spoke of the need for more public involvement in the determination of America’s public policies. “Over the past decades, the majority of ideas and policies have originated in the backrooms of lobbyists and legislators in Washington DC. New legislation has often originated from special interests. These ideas and policies have proven to be tired and ineffective. I know the American people have better ideas for our government. Contract from America is their opportunity.”
Contractfromamerica.com was launched immediately prior to the Stand up for Liberty! rallies held in Texas and Ohio over the Labor Day Weekend, and was announced to the nation at the 9-12 March on Washington.
As ideas are offered online by grassroots visitors, individuals will be able to vote on ideas or suggest alternatives in each category. Editors selected from among tea party activists from around the country will choose the top three ideas in each policy area. A vote of the people will select the ideas to be presented to elected officials as the choices of the people.
Hecker noted further, “This website provides Americans with the opportunity to offer their innovative solutions to our nation’s pressing problems and to vote and comment on the ideas of others. We believe that the result of this grassroots-generated marketplace of ideas will be a document that not only represents the will of the American people, but promotes unique ideas that will breathe new life and new trust into American government. We will have a Contract From America for which we are all responsible and in which we all feel a sense of ownership.”

The Politics of Despair: An Interview with John Derbyshire
Good Letter.........
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:
We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way..
Here is a model separation agreement:
Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).
We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you ABC, CBS, NBC and Hollywood. You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help provide them security.
We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.
We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars.. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find. You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” and the “National Anthem”. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute “Imagine”, “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing”, “Kum Ba Ya” or “We Are the World”.
We’ll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name and our flag.
Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years..
Sincerely,
John J. Wall
Law Student and an American
P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you…
