The REAL problem...........................from Rico

This is the REAL problem in Ferguson, MO and not the FAKE problem being stoked by racist bigots like Barry, Eric, Al and their criminally complicit media pals.

The "Gentle Giant" was a criminal (he'd just stolen cigars from a shop), a bully (he pushed around the shopkeeper he robbed), and a dumbass (he got shot while beating on a cop and trying to take the cop's gun).

So let's make this thug a saint, just like that other criminal bully dumbass Trayvon.

Yeah, St Swisher and St Skittles...both child saints.
- Sounds about right, if you're a complete moron.

The World's Climate Change Mafia Meet in Peru

To understand all the talk of “climate change” you must understand that everything and everyone involved—except for those of us who debunk the lies—are engaged in a criminal enterprise to transfer billions from industrialized nations to those who have failed to provide a thriving economy, often because they are run by dictators or corrupt governments who skim the money for themselves.

The lies being inflicted on Americans include Obama’s “war on coal” that is shutting down coal-fired plants that affordably and efficiently produce the electricity the nation needs, along with the six-year delay of the Keystone XL pipeline. Add in the thousands of Environmental Protection Agency regulations affecting our manufacturing, business and agricultural sectors and the price we are paying is huge.

At its heart, environmentalism hates capitalism.

One of the worst parts of this scam to take from the rich and give to the poor—otherwise known as “redistribution”—is the way the world’s media have played along since 1992 when the first Earth Summit was held in Rio. The perpetrators are headquartered in the United Nations, home to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that sets the agenda.

While the 20th session of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change’s Conference of Parties meets in Lima, Peru this week, perhaps the most egregious and outrageous example of journalism was the December 2nd Associated Press article, “Hotter, Weirder: How Climate Change and Changed the Earth.” It is not attributed to a specific reporter; perhaps because it is filled with lies from start to finish.

It starts with the biggest lie of all:  WASHINGTON (AP) -- In the more than two decades since world leaders first got together to try to solve global warming, life on Earth has changed, not just the climate. It's gotten hotter, more polluted with heat-trapping gases, more crowded and just downright wilder.”
The Earth is in the 19th year of a natural cooling cycle, the result of a comparable cycle on the Sun which is producing less radiation to warm the planet. What astounds anyone who knows this is the article’s assertion that “It's almost a sure thing that 2014 will go down as the hottest year in 135 years of record keeping, meteorologists at NOAA's National Climatic Data Center say. If so, this will be the sixth time since 1992 that the world set or tied a new annual record for the warmest year.”
Would government agencies that are beholden to the existing administration for their budgets lie to the public? Yes, they would. While all fifty states experienced freezing weather within the past month, we are still being told that 2014 set new records for warmth. To borrow a phrase from Jonathan Gruber, the architect of ObamaCare, the government can tell “stupid” voters and others anything it wants in order to achieve its goals.
For the record, in 2013 and much of 2014, there have been record low numbers of tornadoes and hurricanes. There was a record gain in Arctic and Antarctic ice. There was no change in the rate of sea level rise; something measured in millimeters.  The weather is the weather and that includes dramatic events such as blizzards or droughts, but it is hardly uniform. Depending on where you live on planet Earth, you will experience it differently on any given day.
As representatives of 190 climate mafia meet in Peru, you will be given data about carbon dioxide (CO2). The AP article cites increases of  “60 percent.” If that were true, it would be good news. All vegetation on Earth depends on CO2, just as humans and other living creatures depend on oxygen. More CO2 means healthier forests and greater crop yields, an agricultural bonus in a world that needs to feed seven billion people. But it’s not true. Nor is the claim that the mere 0.04% of CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere traps so much heat we’re all going to die. It doesn’t and most of us will die of old age.
As Amy Ridenour of the National Center for Public Policy Research reported in June, “The U.S. already leads the world in CO2 reductions and is a great role model. U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions fell 12.6 percent between 2005 and 2012, thanks to technology and conservation. Worldwide, CO2 emissions increased by 17.7 percent during the same period.”  That’s a far cry from the AP claim of 60 percent.
The Peru conference is another effort to impose a global tax on “carbon” and to increase the UN’s “Climate Fund” to which some nations have pledged $9.3 billion. To put this in perspective, the United States just set a new record of $18 TRILLION in debt and cannot afford to be pledging money to that fund or any other fund. Most of that debt has been incurred during the one and a half terms of Barack Obama who just happens to be telling everyone that “climate change” is the greatest threat to all life on Earth.
“Climate change” is what the 4.5 billion-year-old Earth has been doing during all that time and will continue to do. Humans experience it as the “weather” which is measured in days and weeks while climate is measured in units not less than thirty years and more often in centuries. Today’s weather prediction is good for, at best, five days and is subject to change at any time.
As for all those claims about “global warming” it’s worth keeping in mind that not one of the computer models cited to prove it has been accurate. There isn’t a model or a computer big enough to take in all the many elements that compose the weather anywhere and everywhere on Earth. The weather is always in a state of flux and change, just as the temperatures during any hour of the day are in a stage of change.
Here’s a bit of advice. Do not believe anything that comes out of the UN conference because, scientifically speaking, it will be a lie. And don’t believe anything the Associated Press reports on “climate change” because that too must automatically be regarded as a lie as well.
Whatever Barack Obama has to say about “climate change” (formerly known as “global warming”) is a lie. It would be nice to have a President and a government we could trust.

Chuckie Hagel was fired because he wouldn't 'swallow' this one:

Now, unlawful enemy combatants are unprivileged enemy belligerent - significant because they do not have standing under Geneva Conventions.

Eric dickHolder's replacement was hired because she was totally OK with this:

I just read that the reason they are not arresting any LOOTERS in Ferguson is because Eric Holder's Justice Department has reclassified them. They are not LOOTERS anymore. They are UNDOCUMENTED SHOPPERS.

The following items have NOT been stolen by the undocumented shoppers in Ferguson: Pens, pencils, resume kits, work boots, work gloves, work coveralls, father's day cards.

Trifecta predicts Financial Crisis 2.0.........................from Rico

Bubbles always end with stock price collapses. Here is a trifecta of indicators that spell "Financial Crisis 2.0" for anyone paying attention.
 
1. The Buffet Indicator (market cap to GDP) is currently at 130%. OK, the Dot.com bubble was higher at 153% but that was THE single largest stock bubble of the past 100 years.
 
2. The CAPE (cyclical adjusted price-to-earnings) says the market is overvalued like it's 2007 again. The Dot.com bubble and the 1929 bubble are the only two times it's been higher.
 
3. The OIL crash. Remember 2007-2008? This is NOT good.
 
In simple terms, the current US market is:
- overvalued, yet the Muppets are more bullish, and invested, than in 2007.
- overbought, with insider selling to buyers back to 2007 levels. Insiders are selling everything with both hands.
- overextended, with mutual fund cash levels at record lows.
- overleveraged, with margin debt nearly at record levels.
- nearly OVER. Whether it will be a "correction" or a "collapse" the prudent mariner would be getting ready for "Financial Crisis 2.0" with all haste.

Cyber Monday sees a huge movement in bullion...both Gold and Silver...and shorts were not just rinsed, but carried out of the market on stretchers. Silver is up 17% from intraday lows (the largest upside swing on record) and Gold is up $70.

Truth, Lies, and Michael Brown

AP photo/Charlie Riedel

There comes a time when you have to put political correctness aside and say what needs to be said. The mess that started in Ferguson Missouri is getting out of hand and it’s spreading because some people seem to be unwilling to tell the truth about it. I’m not one of those people. Michael Brown was a drugged-up thug who tried to kill a cop and died in the process. That’s all, there was no racism involved, there was no police brutality, and there was no wrongdoing on the part of Officer Darren Wilson. Michael Brown’s death was Michael Brown’s fault.   (continue reading

Protesting Their Protectors


By Alan Caruba

When you get right down to it, the protests said to be about the shooting of Michael Brown are really about how differently the black and white communities view the police. Blacks may want and need protection, but they don’t have the level of confidence in the police that whites express.

That protection occasionally includes having to shoot those who threaten the lives of police officers. If the Ferguson and other city protests are against that they are as irrational as the burning down of the Brown family’s church.

What we are witnessing is a rejection of the rule of law and those who put their lives on the line to protect society.

The President got involved, predictably urging that violence be avoided, but also saying that the protesters should “stay the course.”

Here is an excerpt from The New York Times:

“Some of the national leaders met with President Obama on Nov. 5 for a gathering that included a conversation about Ferguson.

According to the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has appeared frequently in St. Louis with the Brown family and delivered a speech at Mr. Brown’s funeral, Mr. Obama “was concerned about Ferguson staying on course in terms of pursuing what it was that he knew we were advocating. He said he hopes that we’re doing all we can to keep peace.”

Protest leaders said wholesale change was ultimately what they were demanding, though not all agreed on what that meant. Some called for the removal of the Ferguson police chief or the entire department. Others said they want the police to wear cameras; civilian review boards for all police shootings; or a requirement that ethnic and racial makeup of police departments match the communities they serve.

“It must be changing how police and citizens relate to one another,” said Michael T. McPhearson, the co-chairman of the Don’t Shoot Coalition. “We’re calling for police accountability, police transparency, changing how the police do their work. If there’s an indictment or if there’s not an indictment, we still have that work to do.”

As reported by the Times, according to the black community leaders the problem was the police, not the community. In an appalling lack of judgment and prudence, The New York Times published the name of the street on which Officer Wilson lives! A Twitter user published what he claimed was the address and a photo of his home.

As far as the media was concerned the story was about police officer Wilson, not Michael Brown or the protesters, except insofar as they provided dramatic video. The story became a repeat of charges against police of “racial profiling” and other actions resulting from just doing their job.
 
As we know, lots of the violence took the form of looting and destruction of Ferguson businesses occurring before and since the grand jury decision. What has surprised many observers was the way neither the Missouri National Guard, called out by the Governor, nor other police authorities engaged the “protester’s” criminal behavior, arresting few while concentrating on protecting the court house and police headquarters.
One of the dramatic forms of protest was to burn police cars.
 
I recall an event involving President Obama and a police officer when, on July 16, 2009, Harvard University professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr., an African-American, was arrested at his Cambridge, Massachusetts home by a local police officer responding to a 911 caller’s report that men were breaking into and entering the residence. As the facts came out, professor Gates had returned home from a trip to China and found the front door jammed shut. With the help of his driver, they tried to force it open. When the police officer, James Crowley, showed up responding that what well could be a crime in progress, Gates was less than cooperative and charged with disorderly conduct.
 
The charges were dropped, but the event invoked a national debate about “racial profiling” by police. On July 22, President Obama commented on the incident, criticizing the arrest and Officer Crowley’s actions. The national response was a massive rejection of the President’s comment and, two days later, a photo op was staged at the White House where both Officer Crowley and professor Gates were seen with the President enjoying a beer together. Indeed, it became known as the “Beer Summit”; all because of Obama’s assumption that racial profiling, not the actual facts of the event, was the reason Gates was charged.
 
Who doesn’t like the police? People who tend to get questioned by them and who get arrested by them. Many of those people are black because a significant amount of crime in America is perpetrated by blacks and a significant percentage of those incarcerated in our prisons are black. Who have been their victims? As often as not, other blacks.
 
As John Lott, president of the Crime Prevention Research Center, noted in a Daily Caller.com commentary, “The average black person is 6.5 times more likely to be murdered than the average white person. Over nine out of every ten black people who were murdered were murdered by other black people.” And many were young men like Michael Brown. The slaughter in cities like Chicago, Detroit, and St. Louis is commonplace and appalling.
 
As the facts of the Brown shooting came out most whites concluded that Brown was a thug and, indeed, a large one at six feet, four inches and weighing in at over 300 pounds. The “gentle giant” was caught on video threatening a store employee after stealing some cigarillos. Even though he was “unarmed”, a fact repeated in every story, the grand jury concluded that he had attacked Officer Wilson who then had acted in self-defense. 
 
I do not want to appear to condemn “all” blacks because to do so would be idiotic. The criticism here is directed at cultural values that are well established and documented, but that does not mean that “all” blacks share them. Many have achieved success since the days of the civil rights movement and one can only hope that many more blacks will join them, be lifted out of poverty and freed from poorly performing schools. One can hope the same for others as well.
 
In cities and towns where blacks are a significant part of the population they are likely to need more police protection than whites. And many of the police who provide that protection are white. I guarantee you that the next time a black person feels threatened and calls the police they are not going to ask what race the officer is.

Swissfinge​red......................from Rico

The Swiss really got cheesed. Swissfingered.
- Their referendum might better be called the running of the Swiss.

They voted to trust their central bank and other central bankers, to trust the EU, and continue the EU's insane immigration policies.
- Printed money was chosen over Gold.

If you can fool the Swiss...
- What was that about 'fooling all of the people some of the time?'

As expected the "wise guys" prematurely celebrated on the CRIMEX-GLOBEX with a "hands up" victory dance in the end zone.
- The 'game' is not over...

I never thought they would be "allowed" a graceful exit from the Western banker's paper Ponzi scheme and a return to Gold.

Guess the "scare" campaign worked, so no need for hanging chads.
