Living parody!...................from Rico

Joe Biden is a living parody of a politician.
- Or, as Dennis Miller aptly put it: 'he's a smile with a body attached.'

Look at the expressions on the two bikers faces.
- This expresses more than the proverbial 1,000 words could.

JETMAN FLY PAST TO PRESENT

As part of an Aviation celebration Yves "Jetman" Rossy took to the skies with fellow "Breitling Flyer" pilot, Nigel Lamb in the renowned Spitfire MH434.
In this unique close-formation flight, the British iconic aircraft offered a stark contrast to the futuristic Jetwing, the cutting edge of Swiss innovation.

The Mk IXB Spitfire, operated by 'Old Flying Machine Company' and normally based in Duxford, (UK) was invited to display at the airfield's annual 'fly-in' where the aircraft has been a favorite participant since its first appearance in 1976.

Israel discussing Iran "red line" with U.S. – Netanyahu

* Netanyahu hints military action could be avoided

* Says Iran "might pause" nuclear drive if red line set

JERUSALEM, Sept 10 (Reuters) - Israel and the United States are in discussion on setting a "red line" for Iran's nuclear programme, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said.

"We're discussing it right now with the United States," Netanyahu said in an interview with Canada's CBC television aired late on Sunday.

Presidential Campaign like O. J. Trial.............

Today, in thinking about this critical presidential campaign; I suddenly thought about the similarity of the O. J. Simpson murder trial. There was a mountain of evidence to prove O. J. was guilty, but his celebrity personality, along with Johnny Cochran's drama swayed jurors and they ignored all the facts, the DNA and tons of evidence.

Surprisingly, there was a segment of people in Los Angeles and throughout the country, that while KNOWING in their heart-of hearts that he was guilty of viciously stabbing two people to death -- they simply did NOT care! They cheered when he got off, while the rest of the country wept and cried in shock, knowing justice had not prevailed. That trial divided the country in a way that had not been seen since the Martin Luther King days.

Now -- the same thing is happening in this presidential campaign. Democrats, like the jurors in the O. J. Simpson trial, know that Obama is destroying our country, but are swayed by his personality and refuse to accept the truth.

As in the O. J. case, that same segment of people across America, mostly African Americans and minorities, know that Obama is dividing the country and taking us down a path of destruction. He is cunning and persuaded millions of people to apply for food stamps and welfare checks making them dependent on the government. They know it is the wrong decision -- but simply don't care!

God forbid that the American people will have to look back after the 2012 election and say, "Obama just got away (again) with pulling the biggest hoax in American history -- just like O. J. Simpson and the "Dream Team."

May God remove the veil from the eyes of American people who are still deceived by this evil man. Mountains of evidence is available -- and this time, justice must prevail!

Remember the ATC strike?...................from Rico


Chicago teacher's union strikes.
- Average pay of $76,000 per year BEFORE benefits isn't enough for them.
- Neither was a 16% raise.

These porkers want even MORE.
- Look at the photo before you judge me...they obviously aren't missing too many meals!

I remember the Air Traffic Controllers strike back in the day.
- They were ALL fired and replaced.

There are a lot of talented unemployed folks who want to work availalbe. Hmmmmmmm...
- Fire all these useless cows and replace them?

Well, not likely under Commissar Rohm Enamel, and even LESS likely since there is no real President in office right now both of these jokers confuse 'talking' with 'doing'...much like these teachers confuse showing up for work with doing productive work.
- Being 'present' is a lot like voting 'present'...useless.

Honey, You Didn't Build That

"Honey, You Didn't Build That" for an explanation of what the president said, that even a child could understand. We are small business!

Watch the ticking of the Global Debt Clock!...from Mike Haltman at TPC


A global debt map that shows current and historic data of public debt on a country by country basis. 

It's interesting to see how far debt has risen in some counties in just a few short years and raises the question of how sustainable this indebtedness can possibly be?

This is my 2,000th post since beginning Blog STORMBRINGER in April of 2009. I dedicate my work to honoring veterans of the great nations of the English-speaking peoples; Australia, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom, United States AUSCANZUKUS



It is time to abandon the folly of 'Nation Building' - one cannot carve out a nation for a people and hand it over - they must want to do it for themselves - and besides; we can no longer afford the luxury of such largess; the war in Afghanistan is being fought on borrowed money. As we fiddle about for a chunk of real estate that no longer has any strategic value whatsoever, the real strategic threat in the region is Iran.

Barbecue relish.............from Rico


I actually had a conversation with someone who said Gold was a barbecue relish.
- Obviously a registered Democrat (C) and an illiterate Keynesian who mis-remembered the 'party line' that Gold was a barbarous relic. Brainwashing is a wondrous thing, however, he DID accurately recall Ben Bernanke's statement that Gold was not money...he merely lacked the mental agility to ask "if it is NOT money, why does the US hold over 8,000 tons of the stuff, and WHY then do most of the World's Central Banks (the twenty biggest) hold Gold as reserves?"

And poor, poor China seems not to have gotten Benny's memo. So far in 2012 China has imported more Gold than the entire ECB's holdings of 502.1 tons. China already holds more Gold than Switzerland, Russia, or Japan, and a dozen other Central Bank Gold Reserves.
- My guess (since China has not reported its official Gold holdings since April 2009, when they started to aggressively accumulate the barbecue relish in earnest) is that they have surpassed France, Italy, and the IMF's Gold holdings...and perhaps even Germany's putting them in second place to the US.

So what? What's the 'big deal' about having mammoth Gold reserves?
- Look at the attached chart of World Reserve Currencies and consider that they have a definite life-span and do NOT last forever.

Now consider that the PBOC is positioning itself to make the Yuan the next World Reserve Currency [for Keynesians read: adios Dollar].
- Oh yes, he who holds the Gold does indeed make the rules...

Must Watch Video: Iran and the threat to Western Civilization!...from Mike Haltman at TPC



Video that shows the dangers posed to the United States by Ahmadinejad and Iran with its potential ability to deploy nuclear weapons or to give them to a terrorist organization that will do it for them. 

If Iran gets nukes a 2nd term with Barack Obama in the White House will be the least of our problems!

The 'new' economy................from Rico

Ignore the man behind the curtain.
- Ignore the $16 trillion debt and the down-sized repackaging of food to conceal the inflation they say is not there.

Gasoline prices are UP over 100% from 2005, and have moved from $1.85 when O'Bummer took office to over $4.00 in some areas.
- Incomes remain stagnant...if you have an income. If you have an EBT card, who gives a crap? You can buy gas with them, and other important stuff, too...

But YOU happy tax-payer/wage-slave, if you are paying any attention, you KNOW your purchasing power is losing value.
- And, if you are NOT paying attention, four more years of 'free' stuff must sound awfully good. "Fair" even. Social justice, and all that. You'll probably vote for Barry, you shmucks...

Ignore the man behind the curtain.
- All is well.
