Retreat in Crimea...................from Rico

Led by ImPOTUS, the Pillow Biter in Chief who sorta kinda firmly says 'follow me, I'm right behind you.'


The sequel to Syria now comes to the Crimea (as in Cry me a river) this is -

"The Retreat of the Light-in-the-Loafers Brigade"

Half assed, half assed, half assed rearward.

Barry's not to reason why,

Barry's but to flee and fly.

Cowards the lot of 'em,

Waffled and chundered.


Flashing their buttocks bare,

Plunged through their own smoke,

As they broke wind and ran.


When can his ineptness fade?

Oh, the stupid things he said.

All the world wondered.

Oh yeah. Remember to vote Democrat.

I have been blogging for nearly 12 years now and to continue this blog has to start paying it's way. Ever since Google-ads blocked us cos of the totty ( and being anti Obama) there is no income. I am not asking for charity but things are tight now and I now have to find an income bacause I have put this site before everything for a long while as we have a great team who I couldn't run this blog without. They are unpaid and brilliant and some have been with us since the beginning. I couldn'd run the blog without them. I am an Englishman in a small town in Norfolk (England) who is amazed at what one can do these days over the internet. Hell we both have mid-term elections coming up so lets use our God given right to kick some liberal ass. All contributions will be greatly accepted cos otherwise i might have to go into politics!!!

Anyone wishing to contribute please hit the PayPal button in the bar. Many Thanks Theo

Paper Money........................from Rico

There are two very different kinds of paper money, and understanding the difference is crucial to understanding how the FED works (or doesn't work for you, it's working fine for their private owners...but I digress).

US Notes.

- The US Treasury issued United States Notes frm 1862 to 1971. The 'red' Treasury seal is a quick visual identification for them. These notes were worth the face value printed on them, and were interest-free. For most of their useage, they were redeemable in Gold or Silver.

- They were "bills of credit."

Federal Reserve Notes.

- The Federal Reserve Bank (a privately owned, for-profit bank) now issues paper money instead of the US Treasury as interest-bearing debt. These notes are not credits, but are an IOU instead and are NOT interest-free (this is where the REAL money is being made by the FED, on the interest 'owed' them on this money). They are NOT redeemable for anything (except more FRN's).

The Federal Reserve.

- This is THE biggest long-con ever to have been accomplished in plain sight. Helluva 'scam' guys. Kudos.

Keystone XL is Proof Obama Opposes U.S. Economic Growth

Thousands of Miles of U.S. pipelines

By Alan Caruba

It’s taken nearly five years, but Americans are finally aware that President Obama is opposed to anything that contributes to the economic growth of the nation. Along with a Democratic controlled Senate and its opposition to anything generated by the Republican House, Obama has saddled the nation with the highest debt in its history and squandered billions on failed alternative energy firms.

The most dramatic example is Obama’s five-year delay of the implementation of the Keystone XL pipeline that would safely transport oil from Canada to refineries on the Gulf Coast.

There are approximately 55,000 miles of pipelines in the U.S. with another 30,000 to 40,000 smaller gathering pipelines that feed it to the major ones.

In a February 17 U.S. Chamber of Commerce advertisement in The Weekly Standard, its president and CEO, Thomas J. Donahue, wrote that “In the same time that the Keystone XL pipeline application has been under review by the Obama administration, the Hoover Dam, the New Jersey Turnpike, and the Empire State Building were built—a clear indicator of how cumbersome and political today’s permitting process has become.” 

Donahue pointed out that “The Keystone XL pipeline would not only transport fuel safely, but it would boost economic activity along the way. Building the pipeline would create more than 42,000 new jobs while adding $3.4 billion to the economy. The pipeline would generate more than $5.2 billion in property taxes for communities on the route, pumping cash into state and city coffers for schools, law enforcement, and local projects.”

“Radical eco-zealots have chosen Keystone XL as the place to make their stand,” says Craig Rucker, the Executive Director of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT) a free market think tank. “They claim this project is unsafe for the environment and the people it would pass near, and that it would greatly contribute to alleged ‘global warming.’”

The State Department is accepting public comment on the pipeline and CFACT has a petition for which it is seeking signatures to move forward on its acceptance. Take a moment to sign it.

Even Obama’s Secretary of Energy, Ernest Moniz, has gone on record saying that the nation’s railroad infrastructure was not ready to handle the huge increase in all oil production coming out of places like North Dakota’s Bakken Shale formation, urging that pipelines are the best option. “Frankly, I think pipeline transport overall probably has overall a better record in terms of cost, in terms of emissions, and in terms of safety.”

Keystone XL has become the environmental movement’s front line in its attack on the nation’s economic growth and political pundits commonly say that Obama’s refusal to permit its construction is based on his intention to keep their vote, but I am inclined to believe that it is part of his effort to convert the economy and political structure of the nation from a vigorous capitalist entity to one in which millions of Americans, unable to find employment and experiencing a reduction in their personal wealth are forced onto government doles of one sort or another.

Paul Driessen, a CFACT senior policy advisor, points out that “Most Americans are no longer fooled by empty hope and change hype. In December only 74,000 jobs were created (many of them low-paying part-time seasonal positions), while 374,000 more people gave up looking for work. Not surprisingly, recent polls have found that three-quarters of Americans say the country still appears to be in a recession, two-thirds don’t trust the President to make the right decisions for the country, and barely 30% say the nation is ‘heading in the right direction.’”

One is reminded of Obama’s claim that his $787 billion dollar “stimulus” program would help fund “shovel ready” jobs waiting to be filled. It utterly failed to do that, instead directing the money to alternative energy firms that went bankrupt while their owners pocketed much of that funding. Obama later admitted that there were far fewer shovel ready jobs than he believed existed. Government regulations have so slowed and delayed construction projects of every description that until they are removed, the economy will continue to stagnate.

The environmental claim that the pipeline will contribute to “greenhouse gas emissions”, primarily carbon dioxide (CO2), is utterly false because CO2 plays virtually no role whatever in affecting the Earth’s weather or climate. The claim is based on computer models, 95% or more of which have proved to be wrong.

Writing in The Wall Street Journal on February 20, Richard McNider and John Christie disputed Secretary of State John Kerry’s claims about “climate change”, pointing out that “When the failure of become clear, the modeling industry always comes back with new models that soften their previous warming forecasts…The models mostly miss warming in the deep atmosphere—from the Earth’s surface to 75,000 feet—which is supposed to be one of the real signals of warming caused by carbon dioxide. Here, the consensus ignores the reality of temperature observations of the deep atmosphere collected by satellites and balloons, which have consistently shown less than half of the warming shown in the average model forecasts.” McNider and Christie are professors of atmospheric science at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and fellows of the American Meteorological Society.

Even Kerry’s Department of State’s own final environmental impact statement said that the Keystone XL pipeline would contribute little to global greenhouse gas emissions. Obama’s alleged climate policies ignore the science that disputes any connection between CO2 and the climate, but it is his primary instrument to delay and eliminate any economic growth.

Regrettably, on Feb 19, a Nebraska judge ruled that the law allowing the Keystone XL pipeline to be built across the State is unconstitutional, thus delaying the project still further.

The greenhouse emissions claims are a huge lie created to advance “global warming”, now called “climate change”, but the bottom line is that Obama is using them as a weapon against the nation’s capacity to grow the economy

We have a President who is doing everything he can to reduce jobs, reduce construction, eliminate coal-fired plants to produce electricity, and to wage an economic war on America.

Wrong Crisis? Wrong Problem? Wrong Solution?...............................from Rico

The "financial crisis" was sold to the suckers as a LIQUIDITY problem, when in fact it was a "banking crisis" and a SOLVENCY problem.

- Liquidity is the temporary inabilty to repay debt.

- Solvency is the complete inability to repay debt.


The FED's QEternity is all about giving the insolvent TBTF banks more access to debt.

- With a debt-based currency and a debt-based economy, that is really all a Keynesian can do...until mathematics makes it impossible to continue.
