The Bullet that Kills the United States: More and More Nations are shooting at the Dollar and as the Dollar Goes—- So goes the Country

June 30, 2009 · 1 Comment

 

 

The big economic crisis to look for is the worldwide dumping of the United States Dollar.  Technically, (and soon to be formerly) the US Dollar was the world’s reserve currency but ever since the Nefarious Federal Reserve began to print them irresponsibly and to keep interest rates unnaturally low many nations have seen the US dollar as a poor investment. The spending spree of the socialist democrats of the Obama Administration has made the crisis exponentially worse.  The dollar continues to weaken and monetary policy seems to be steering us toward a hyperinflation event not unlike what Argentina experienced.  The Weimar Republic of pre World War II Germany acted just like we are now: and the result was a destroyed economy featuring a German Mark that was so valueless that you needed wheelbarrow full of them to buy a loaf of bread.  Am I saying that we could be coming to the end of the dollar?  Am I saying that we’re coming up on an economic event that will make the Great Depression of the 1930’s look like a folk dance?  Am I saying that our economic dominance of the world is at an end? 

Yes.  I am.

Every sane nation in the world is looking toward what will replace the US Dollar and how to convert their ever more valueless dollars into the new world currency.  Meetings are being held, and continue to be held, in Europe for a new world order financial system: and in this quest they are supported by the Russians and the Communist Chinese.  The Chinese have a huge holding of US Dollars and now they laugh openly at our Treasury Secretary when he lectures at a Beijing University; and they comment weakly on the mismanagement and moral depravity of the Dollar and the US Government.  The Communist Chinese are lecturing us on government spending, monetary policy, trade policy, energy policy and its abundantly clear to the world that the Chinese will be our successor as the dominant nation on earth. Leadership of the western world will return to Europe as I think the Euro will emerge victorious when the dollar dies. The Bible says that in the last days the world will be led by Europe and I suspect that when the dust settles the new global conventions of currency and trade will be drafted largely by and for Europe. The world is looking toward the day when the United State dominance of the global financial system will be over.

 It’s taking place right now in Washington as the disastrous Cap and Trade Bill passes in the House of Representatives and if passed by the Senate will, all by itself, destroy the American Economy.  This is not to mention the insane Socialized Medicine Bill that the White House is ramming through congress, or the talk of more “stimulus” for the economy, or the bankruptcy of our state and local governments.  The Chinese look at this and clearly are amazed at the rate at which we’re committing suicide as a nation, and as a culture. They need a way to get rid of their dollars while extracting as much value as they can, to convert into a new world order currency.  Every nation knows that if they start selling too many dollars too quickly they can spook the market and it would be like a run at the bank.  Every nation would be selling dollars, driving down the value of the dollar and the costs of commodities sky high, while no one would be buying dollars, nor financing our debt, and the USA would be in economic and political anarchy.

When the Weimar Republic went through this they became, to say the least, politically unstable and finally stabilized under a system of corporatism that the world came to know as Fascism and Nazism under a little guy with a funny mustache named Adolf Hitler.  When there’s no jobs, no food at the store, no meaningful money, bread lines and no hope it’s amazing the kinds of people citizens will listen to if they promise them food and jobs in exchange for an all powerful corporate government. People get so grateful to eat and work that they hardly notice the loss of their liberty, unless of course you happen to be in the group that the government has decided to make “the enemy.”  The world has always said that it couldn’t happen in America but don’t be fooled.  It can happen here: Indeed it is happening here, right now, as the government simply takes over everything without opposition.  The key to opening the door to Neo-fascism and economic hell is the destruction of the US Dollar: and the momentum to dump the dollar continues to gain strength daily in Europe, Russia and China.  At any moment, one or more of these nations could set off a selling spree of the dollar that would destroy it as a currency forever.  Our way of life, and capitalism, and our children’s future, hang in the balance while our politicians spend us into receivership, the Fed prints worthless dollars, and the person are parelized with uncertainty as Obama smiles and promises the moon while stealing all our money, in addition to the money of unborn generations.

Who is going to say no to the first Black President as he changes us from capitalism to socialism, or perhaps fascism, while the people face daily social and governmental changes of such staggering magnitude that most people simply can’t comprehend what’s going on. We, the formerly free people of the United States, may not be cognizant of the changes he’s making but that’s not the case with the rest of the world: and certainly not the case with the Chinese.

Keep watch for the fall of the US Dollar——- That’s when the post American world will begin in earnest.  We aren’t going to like living in it.

Consider this article from Bloomberg.com on the Chinese:

Dollar Falls Most in Month as China Urges New Reserve Currency

Share | Email | Print | A A A

 

By Oliver Biggadike and Ye Xie

June 27 (Bloomberg) — The dollar declined the most against the euro in a month and dropped versus the yen after China repeated its call for a new global currency.

The Swiss franc declined against the euro and dollar this week as foreign-exchange analysts said the central bank sold its currency three times to support the economy. The greenback fell against most of its major counterparts after the People’s Bank of China said yesterday the International Monetary Fund should manage more of members’ foreign-exchange reserves.

“The dollar’s status as a reserve currency is being questioned,” said Benedikt Germanier, a foreign-exchange strategist in Stamford, Connecticut at UBS AG, the second- largest currency trader. “There are reasons to sell the dollar.”

The U.S. currency fell 0.9 percent to $1.4056 per euro this week from $1.3937 on June 19, the swiftest depreciation since the five days ended May 29. The dollar fell 1.1 percent to 95.18 yen from 96.27, its third consecutive weekly drop. The euro decreased 0.3 percent to 133.85 yen from 134.18.

Federal Reserve policy makers said on June 24 inflation “will remain subdued for some time” and that the economy warrants an “extended period” of low rates.

The 10-year Treasury yield fell the most since March as investors bet the Fed will keep interest rates close to zero for the rest of the year. The difference in yield, or spread, between 2- and 10-year yields decreased this week to 2.43 percentage points, near the narrowest level since May 20.

Stronger Real

Brazil’s real gained 2 percent to 1.9363 versus the greenback, its biggest weekly increase in June, as the sale of shares in Visa Inc.’s local credit-card processing affiliate attracted foreign investors to the world’s biggest initial public offering in more than a year.

The dollar depreciated 2.6 percent to 7.8926 South African rand and 1.4 percent to 7.8002 Swedish krona as the People’s Bank of China said in its 2008 review there’s a need for a global reserve currency “delinked from sovereign nations.”

The Swiss franc declined against the euro and dollar as strategists said the Swiss National Bank sold its currency twice on June 24 and once more a day later to support the economy. Nicolas Haymoz, an SNB spokesman, declined to comment on June 25 on whether the bank acted in foreign-exchange markets.

‘Unwelcome’ Strength

“The SNB has to convince markets that it considers a strong franc as unwelcome,” Unicredit SpA analysts Armin Mekelburg in Munich and Roberto Mialich in Milan wrote in a report yesterday. “We fear that franc bulls will start further attempts to wipe out the line in the sand of 1.50.”

The franc fell 1 percent to 1.5230 against the euro and 0.2 percent to 1.0834 compared with the dollar this week. The Swiss currency declined on June 24 to 1.5380 versus the euro, the weakest level since the mid-March period when the SNB said it intervened to weaken the franc.

The ICE’s Dollar Index fell below 80 on the call from China for an alternative to the dollar as the world’s main reserve currency. The gauge tracking the greenback versus the currencies of six leading trading partners decreased 0.5 percent to 79.90.

“To prevent the deficiencies in the main reserve currency, there’s a need to create a new currency that’s delinked from the economies of the issuers,” the People’s Bank of China, or PBOC, said. China is the biggest foreign holder of U.S. Treasuries, with $763.5 billion in April.

Russia’s Stance

Russian Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin said on June 13 after the Group of Eight meeting in Italy that his country had full confidence in the dollar and that it’s “too early” to speak of alternative reserve currencies. Japan has “unshakable” trust in the strong-dollar policy of the U.S., Finance Minister Kaoru Yosano said in Tokyo yesterday.

China called on the U.S. to guarantee the safety of its assets in March, when Premier Wen Jiabao said the nation was “worried” about its holdings of Treasuries.

People’s Bank Governor Zhou Xiaochuan urged the IMF that month to expand the functions of its unit of account and move toward a “super-sovereign reserve currency.” Russian President Dmitry Medvedev proposed on June 5 that nations use a mix of regional reserve currencies to reduce reliance on the dollar.

“There may be signs here of tensions mounting between the PBOC’s economic concerns over China’s holdings of dollars and the Chinese government’s diplomatic reasons for doing so,” Stephen Gallo, head of market analysis at Schneider Foreign Exchange in London, wrote in an e-mail.

Venezuela’s bolivar plunged yesterday to a seven-week low in unregulated trading after the government said investors won’t be able to use a new $3 billion corporate bond offering to obtain dollars until 2011.

The bolivar fell 4.1 percent to 6.90 bolivars per dollar in the parallel market, traders said. The currency tumbled 20 percent this year in the unregulated market as the government pared dollar sales at the official exchange rate of 2.15 after oil, which accounts for 93 percent of the country’s exports, plunged from last year’s record high.

There’s no such thing as a Russian Sphere of Influence: There’s only a Zone of Terror for Former USSR Territories

June 29, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

A few hundred NATO troops held a half hearted exercise near Georgia, and now the Russians are holding a massive exercise in the Caucasus, that their own spokesman, compares favorably to the size and scope of military maneuvers in Soviet Days.  As you recall, the Russians attacked Georgia during the Olympics while Bush and Putin were watching the games in China.  The Georgians had requested NATO membership and had made it clear that they wanted to break with Russian dominance and go their own way as an independent country.  The Ukraine was in the same frame of mind and it’s clear that most of the former territories of the soviets would prefer to be separate and independent from the Russian colossus. Russia’s love for its former soviet era, which it now calls its “sphere of influence”, is clearly a case of unrequited love as the former territories have made clear to both the Russians and the world.  While the world, in theory, supports these aspirations; the EU and NATO have made it clear that they have no intentions of going to war to support their independence. European support is whatever can be had from empty words and European leaders cowering before the Criminal Empire of Vladimir Putin.  The United States, under George W. Bush, was far more verbose in supporting the Georgians and the Ukrainians and even the Polish who agreed, despite Russian Threats, to base an anti missile system in their country that had the Russians Seeing Red, if you’ll excuse the pun.  Bush made it clear that the Russians would not annex their old stomping grounds by crushing the dreams of independence of the Ukraine and Georgia or any of the other formerly subjugated territories.  Things were tense for a while with showy military moves by both Bush and Putin and much squirming and hand wringing by the NATO alliance and the EU.

Times have changed.

In the age of Obama we have a president who wouldn’t lift a finger to support the peoples uprising in Iran for fear of not being seen as sensitive to Islamic culture and as not respecting the regime of despotic clerics against whom the people were rioting.  The Kremlin has been watching with wonder, no doubt, as Obama ingratiates himself to Iranian leaders who hold him in open contempt while throwing traditional alleys like Israel and Egypt under the bus.  Obama has been so intent on “dialogue” with the tyrannical Iranian Regime that there’s no Arab/ Islamic backside in the Middle East he hasn’t kissed in the first six months of his presidency. He’s bowed and scraped before the Saudi King and he’s badmouthed the country he’s supposed to be leading throughout the region, all in the interests of respecting Islamic culture by holding our American culture in contempt. I’ll say it again: The Russians are Watching this Farce and once they’re sure that the naive community organizer from Chicago really believes the stuff that comes out of his mouth: how can they fail to realize that the time to reassemble the Soviet Empire, this time an openly Russian Empire, is now!  Obama, like his sophisticated European Counterparts, has no intention of stopping the expansion of the Russian Criminal Empire under Putin and the worst they would do is send a snotty diplomatic note!

So the Russians are having a very large and forceful military exercise in the Caucasus as the leaders of the former Soviet terror state look on with the horror that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu experienced when he realized that America’s first Black President would indeed abandon Israel. Just as Jimmy Carter made a disastrous mistake by letting the Shaw of Iran fall to the crazy Islamic clerics; so now Obama is setting a wide range of mistakes, as policy, that like Carters errors, will haunt us for decades.  I can imagine a time, coming soon, when Israel acts unilaterally to destroy the Iranian Nuclear Weapons program and midway through the crisis the Russians claim that Georgia fired a spitball at them and comes in to quell “anti Russian Terrorism” across the length and breadth of Georgia and Ukraine.  In their wake they’ll have iron clad mutual defense and economic treaties signed by newly installed leaders who are lap dogs of Putin. Those who strive for freedom from the Russian bear are in for a new wave of repression and tyranny from Russia just as certainly as Ahmadinejad will keep his job as the leader of the Islamic State of Iran.

When Putin realizes that Obama, and his socialist minions, have adopted a new American Isolationism with respect to the worlds thugs it’s a lead pipe cinch that he’ll reassemble the old Soviet Empire and get Obama to apologize to Putin for sending a snotty note. Obama is out to remake America in the image of Carl Marx and Malcolm X and his foreign policy will be, as the French President observed, naive and weak.  Putin would be crazy to let this opportunity pass him by.  Just watch.

Here’s a piece from Fox News about the Russian War Games:

Russia Holds Major War Games in Caucasus

Monday , June 29, 2009

 

 

Thousands of troops, backed by hundreds of tanks, artillery and other heavy weaponry, began rumbling through the North Caucasus on Monday, as Russia began its largest military exercises since last year’s war with Georgia.

The Caucasus 2009 war games are being seen by many experts as a warning shot for nearby Georgia, where the government says it has rearmed armed forces and where NATO recently wrapped up its own exercises.

Experts say the exercises may also be signal to the United States that Russia will give no ground on its efforts to maintain an exclusive sphere of influence in Georgia and other former Soviet republics. The games run through July 6 — the day that President Barack Obama arrives in Moscow for a highly anticipated summit with Russia’s Dmitry Medvedev.

Defense Ministry official say more than 8,500 troops will take part, along with nearly 200 tanks, armored vehicles, 100 artillery units and several units from Russia’s Black Sea naval fleet.

The exercises, which are being personally overseen by Gen. Nikolai Makarov, the chief of Russia’s General Staff, are structured around a theoretical crisis situation that spirals out of control into open fighting, the ministry said.

Tensions remain high between Russia and Georgia, which lost authority over the regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia during the war in August. Russia has been building military bases, storage facilities for supplies and roads in the two regions, which Moscow recognized as independent, and around 6,000 troops are based in each region.

Moscow has been openly hostile to Georgia’s ambitions to join NATO and has signaled that it would not tolerate any other ex-Soviet republics from joining the alliance.

Still, Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili has not backed down on his drive for NATO membership and his efforts to draw closer to the United States.

Last month, NATO wrapped up a month of its own training exercises in Georgia, though just a few hundreds troops participated. Despite the small size of the games, Russia was irked, calling them a provocation.

Deputy Defense Minister Col. Gen. Alexander Kolmakov was quoted by Russian media on Monday as saying that the Caucasus 2009 exercises were adjusted as a result of the NATO games and would be “quite major, as compared with those that were conducted in Soviet times.”

NATO and Russia over the weekend agreed to resume military ties that had been frozen after the Georgian war.

The Economy Continues to Hang By a Thread: No True Rebound within Sight

June 26, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

 

People’s instincts have gotten a refresher course since the Sub-Prime crisis tanked the economy.  Americans have been doing an amazing thing; a thing we’ve spent decades neglecting and that is living within our means and saving our money. It’s like inventing the wheel because the more money you save, the more in control you feel, and the less likely you are to live your life as a frightened rabbit hopping from one paycheck to another.  We’ve rediscovered the idea that being in debt is bad news and that debt is not necessary to have a wonderful life. You don’t need as many toys as you might think and we’ve relearned that delayed gratification is strength beyond measure.  Our savings rate has gone from nothing, to warp speed, overnight, in such a way as to shock the economists, who see the savings rate as bad news because it means that people won’t be spending money like they did which further slows the economy. We the people have begun to see, and correct, the excesses and insanity of capitalism on steroids and a new ethic of rejecting debt has seized the hearts and minds of the American people—— But not the American Government.

Because we the people have rediscovered financial sanity and have returned to the wisdom of saving for a rainy day our government has become unhinged in an attempt to “make up” for our formerly crazed spending. If we will not spend like spoiled children to keep our unsustainable economic growth than our government will take up the burden of crazed spending, on a much larger scale, so “the economy can recover”. Such is the logic of big government out of control.

Spending us into receivership and destroying the dollar is for our own good in the mind of the government.  American deficit spending has been out of control for a long time and our insane monetary policy has created damage to our economy: and a depression is necessary to reset the system. When you’re sick and you need an operation to recover the operation is painful in the short run but long term it saves your life.  When the economy gets sick enough from unwise management it needs an operation of consequences, called a depression that while painful, is the means by which the economy gets well again.

The government is trying to protect us from the just consequences of its own mismanagement and deficit spending, the corruption of the nefarious Federal Reserve System, and the idea that everyone should be entitled to a home regardless of financial facts. When you spend more than you have you go broke: that is a just consequence and if you learn from it you harvest some wisdom!  If you treat money as if it’s just paper and you can print more whenever you wish it will become as valueless as you have been treating it.  If we get rid of the Central Bank, known as the Federal Reserve, who deliberately created the monetary disaster in the first place, then the pain of a depression will have been worth it. When you allow a criminal cartel to rule your monetary policy, and find that all the value of your money has been stolen; you only have yourselves to blame.  Our founding fathers warned us of the dangers of the central bank.

This crisis will not be over until we stop deficit spending, commit to small government that is not used to create “social Justice”, and return our personal finances to saving and living with our means. When the government gives a mortgage to someone who can’t afford it because they want to help a “minority” or practice “social justice” they do a foolish thing.  It’s not “compassionate” or “empathetic” or evidence of a “social conscience” to give someone who can’t afford a mortgage, a mortgage: it’s just foolish and it’s stupid.  Our government was never intended to redistribute wealth and design pie in the sky utopian societies that don’t work.

You are responsible for your lot in life not the government, your race, your gender or your brand of sneakers.  You are responsible for your life and when we forget this basic law of life we have a depression and everyone gets the message again.  We have equal opportunity in the United States not equality of outcome.

Our government, educational and media systems have perpetuated a division of the American people by race, class, sexual orientation, gender, just to name a few, that has been a disaster. Playing one group off against the other is an effective means of political control but its destroying the nation.  Big government and social justice spending are a mirage at best and at worst a sort of cultural cancer that will eventually destroy the body politic that contracts the deadly idea that big government is anything other than a death trip.

Here’s an article from Bloomberg that talks about how the people have vastly increased their savings rate and yet it’s cast as bad news! It foreshadows the big finally to the American economy by talking about how the Chinese are taking steps toward a new reserve currency and getting rid of our dollars. When our values get so out of whack that we consider drunken spenders returning to financial sobriety a bad thing because it shows a lack of faith in the economy than it shows you just how far we’ve fallen as a people. The people are wise to cut back on spending.  The government would be wise to follow the example of the people!

 

 

U.S. Stocks Drop as Savings Rate Hits 15-Year High, Oil Falls

 

By Elizabeth Stanton

 

June 26 (Bloomberg) — U.S. stocks fell as the highest American savings rate in 15 years spurred concern that spending will slow, while falling oil drove down energy producers. The dollar dropped after China’s central bank reiterated a call for a worldwide currency.

Exxon Mobil Corp. and Tesoro Corp. dropped as crude oil futures lost 1.5 percent to $69.19 a barrel. Eli Lilly & Co. helped lead declines by health-care companies as Senator Max Baucus said an industry overhaul may be affordable for Congress. The dollar slumped 0.7 percent against six trading partners as China sought to replace it as the global reserve currency.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index decreased 0.8 percent to 913.31 at 11:03 a.m. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 69.68 points, or 0.8 percent, to 8,402.72.

“The magnitude of that savings rate may have gotten some folks by surprise,” said Philip Orlando, who helps manage $409 billion as chief equity market strategist at Federated Investors Inc. in New York. Economic and earnings growth is “potentially not going to be as robust as some were thinking. That’s weighing on stocks.”

While the stock market has rebounded since March on optimism the deterioration in the global economy will slow, U.S. business activity is probably contracting for a fourth consecutive quarter, according to economists’ estimates. Further gains for the S&P 500, which advanced 36 percent in 3 1/2 months through yesterday, may depend on growth resuming. The benchmark index for U.S. equities has slipped 0.7 percent since June 19, giving it the first two-week retreat since March.

Diversifying Reserves

The Dollar Index fell 0.7 percent to 79.87. The restatement of Governor Zhou Xiaochuan’s proposal in March added to speculation that China will diversify its currency reserves, the world’s largest at more than $1.95 trillion. Chinese investors, the biggest foreign owners of U.S. Treasuries, reduced holdings by $4.4 billion in April to $763.5 billion after Premier Wen Jiabao expressed concern about the value of dollar assets.

“There will be diversification among global central banks,” said Beat Siegenthaler, chief emerging markets strategist at TD Securities Ltd. in London. The comments from China “tend to remind traders of that, but there’s still a question about the time horizon.”

Energy companies in the S&P 500 declined 0.9 percent as a group, the most among 10 industries. Exxon slumped 1 percent to $69.21. Tesoro decreased 2.8 percent to $12.65. Crude oil dropped after the Commerce Department said the savings rate among Americans rose to a 15-year high.

‘Reality Check’

“The increase in the savings rate is a bit of a reality check,” said John Kilduff, senior vice president of energy at MF Global in New York. “The economy is very dependent on spending, so the savings rate is an indication that demand will be under pressure in the months ahead.”

Health-care companies in the S&P 500 slumped 0.8 percent as a group, the most among 10 industries.

Baucus, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, said the cost of health-care options being weighed by his panel can be cut to $1 trillion over 10 years and won’t add to the deficit, citing the Congressional Budget Office.

The non-partisan budget office last week delivered an informal cost estimate of $1.6 trillion for the legislation to overhaul the health-care system, sparking protests from both Republicans and Democrats and prompting Baucus to say his panel may delay consideration of a bill until next month.

Eli Lilly lost 3.3 percent to $34.16. King Pharmaceuticals Inc. dropped 3.4 percent to $9.50. Pfizer Inc. slumped 2 percent to $15.03.

Credibility in the Balance: How Activism Corrupts Everything it touches including Science

June 25, 2009 · 1 Comment

 

 

 

 

There are a great many true believers in “Activism”, by that I mean, that one should always bring ones politics and resolve as an “agent of social change” to the table in whatever profession one happens to be working. If something contradicts the prevailing political correctness; than one has a professional duty, as an agent of social change, to enforce the liberal view for the betterment of society without regard to the truth, because this is the educated and politically correct procedure.

When the people vote against homosexual marriage and adoption, when they vote against abortion on demand; it’s simply proof that the masses are ignorant, and the modern day liberal feels the need to correct the situation because clearly they’re right and the masses are wrong.  So a liberal sues over the action the people have voted on and the matter comes in front of an “activist” liberal judge who is horrified at the decision.  The people have spoken and come to an ignorant and unjust decision, in the mind of the liberal judge, but instead of allowing the people to make a decision the judge disagrees with the Judge invalidates the peoples will via “Judicial Activism”. What once would have rightly been called judicial corruption and misconduct now is given a new spiffy name like “Judicial Activism” and the judge is now magically empowered to use his “compassion” and “empathy” to rationalize defiance of the electorate.  People didn’t vote to allow abortion on demand: Judges invented a “right” and changed the name from infanticide to “a woman’s constitutional right to reproductive freedom”. Judges have found “rights “to “homosexual marriage” despite the clear view of the electorate that such a “right” doesn’t exist and such a practice should not be allowed.

In the nation’s schools the idea that liberals should indoctrinate the children with a host of liberal political baggage is called multiculturalism, cultural sensitivity training, ecological instruction, and health class and so on but not corruption.  Its function is to allow liberal adults to inculcate the children, from grade school through college, to become liberal neo-socialist-democrats because they’ve successfully rationalized teaching their political baggage to a defenseless, captive audience.  They teach reverence for the welfare state, white guilt, elevation of minority self esteem, tolerance for homosexual “lifestyles”, condom use and birth control, and above all the idea that America is hateful intolerant and exploitive and you must embrace your “ethnicity” to have a chance at a good life.  Group identity is reinforced at every turn but only with respect for which of the many possible liberal power blocks a student might be steered into: never toward a common identity as American Citizens which is evil and run exclusively by, and for, white male Christians.

All the world’s woes have been traced by today’s teachers as the exclusive fault of white male Christians and perpetrated to steal the control and power of minority groups such as blacks, women, the handicapped and yes, kids. Teachers see themselves as churning out “agents of social change” rather than as scumbags who shamelessly regurgitate they’re political crap on children who are too young to resist their idiotic political beliefs. The teachers don’t see themselves as corrupt scumbags subverting your will, and insulting your Childs intelligence, they see it as instilling a social conscience and as churning out “agents of social change”: activities they claim are “education” rather than corruption.  You can see how effective they are by our dismal test scores and the fact that American education is, and has been, in free fall for many years. You can educate or you can indoctrinate; but you can’t do both because you can’t be truly educated and hide behind an intellectual fig leaf of ideological indoctrination.

If the truth doesn’t work politically the modern liberal invents a new “truth” and demands respect for “their truth” as a matter of basic fairness because: “the truth wares many faces” and “there’s no such thing as absolute truth” and “all truth is culturally created” and “fundamentally there is no truth”. 

Truth is seen as an impossible dream by journalists who rationalize the fabrication of news as inevitable, and even as good, if an “agent of social change” is writing the story.  The journalistic ethics of objectivity and honest reporting is old fashioned and it’s not enough for journalists to report the truth if the people don’t come to the right conclusion about the issue.  It’s the journalist’s job, as “agents of social change” to use the events of the day to reinforce key liberal social and political propaganda because the masses are too ignorant to form their own.  News outlets don’t report facts anymore: they market the conclusions of the neo-socialist-elite-democrats along with whatever “facts” can be made to serve a preselected conclusion. It’s become a farce and a great shame that so many once professional news organizations now have a reputation as openly liberal and as advancing the agenda of neo-socialist-democrats at every opportunity.

In this wilderness of political corruption that has reached its full powers during the baby boom generation, there was one domain that seemed safe from the intimidation of leftists and that was the realm of hard science.  In science, facts are the building blocks of reproducible truths about our world and how it operates.  Steely-eyed scientists produced a boom of progress and innovation by their devotion to facts and integrity of their experiments and everyone prospered from their efforts. Scientists were respected just as teachers, and judges, and journalists used to be, because their integrity kept us free and moving forward as a society.

Then came global warming; an issue that could be made to serve the Neo-Socialist-Democrat agenda.  Scientists became “activists “and in so doing ceased to be scientists and became scumbags like the people of other professions who sold their ethics for political correctness.  Facts that supported global warming were proclaimed “settled science” and facts that contradicted global warming became lies of the great right-wing-agenda that hates minorities and seeks only profit and the rape of the earth. Politics reared its ugly head and the only politically correct answer was that global warming was caused by our white, male, Christian society and we’re all going to die unless we become tree hugging liberals! We must give up capitalism for socialism or we’ll destroy the earth.  Scientists who proclaimed this crap continued to be scientists, won awards, got funding and accolades, and full professorships to say nothing of tenure at prestigious universities.  Those who didn’t were hounded out of the academy by their politically correct comrades who had a “basic social conscience” and were therefore justified in persecuting and destroying anyone who disagrees with them.

It’s been very difficult and embarrassing for pro global warming “scientists” to explain the ever growing body of facts that suggest we may be heading into a mini ice age which these politically correct “scientists” deny without really looking at the data. It’s been encouraging, lately; that our socialist masters have determined that “global warming” should be replaced, as an issue, by “climate change”.  Apparently the fact that climate, changes, is the fault of white male based exploitive society too!

Here is something from World Net Daily on “Climate Change” (formerly global warming, aka ecology movement)

© 2009 WorldNetDaily Environmental Protection Agency officials have silenced one of their own senior researchers after the 38-year employee issued an internal critique of the EPA’s climate change position.

Alan Carlin, senior operations research analyst at the EPA’s National Center for Environmental Economics, or NCEE, submitted his research on the agency’s greenhouse gases endangerment findings and offered a fundamental critique on the EPA’s approach to combating CO2 emissions

. But officials refused to share his conclusion in an open internal discussion, claiming his research would have “a very negative impact on our office.”

His study was barred from circulation within the EPA and was never disclosed to the public for political reasons, according to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, or CEI, a group that has accessed four internal e-mails on the subject.

CEI General Counsel Sam Kazman told WND, “His boss basically told him, ‘No, I’m not going to send your study further up. It’s going to stay within this bureau.’”

A March 12 e-mail to Carlin warned him not to have “any direct communication with anyone outside NCEE on endangerment.”

Carlin, a researcher who earned his doctorate in economics from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and an undergraduate degree in physics from California Institute of Technology, informed officials that two-thirds of his references were from peer-reviewed publications and defended his inclusion of new research on the topic.

“It is also my view that the critical attribute of good science is its correspondence to observable data rather than where it appears in the technical literature,” he wrote. “I believe my comments are valid, significant and contain references to significant new research … They are significant because they present information critical to justification (or lack thereof) for the proposed [greenhouse gas] endangerment finding.”

After nearly one week of discussion, NCEE Director Al McGartland informed Carlin on March 17 that he would not include the research in the internal EPA discussion.

“Alan, I decided not to forward your comments,” he wrote. “… The administrator and the administration has decided to move forward on endangerment, and your comments do not help the legal or policy case for this decision. … I can only see one impact of your comments given where we are in the process, and that would be a very negative impact on our office.”

endangerment findings nearly final, you need to move on to other issues and subjects. I don’t want you to spend any additional EPA time on climate change. No papers, no research etc, at least until we see what EPA is going to do with Climate.”

CEI charges that suppression of Carlin’s study denied public access to important agency information, as court rulings have indicated that both “the evidence relied upon [by the agency] and the evidence discarded” must be included in the rulemaking record.

“They could come up with reasons to reject it, as I’m sure they’re going to come up with reasons to reject the scientific objections that are coming in now from outside parties in the general public and from skeptical scientists,” Kazman told WND. “But I’d say the real issue here is that this critique is coming from a career EPA insider, so it can’t be dismissed as the work of someone in the pay of the coal-burning fossil-fuel industry. The fact that someone within the EPA was taking this approach is something that would be naturally embarrassing to the agency.”

CEI also said the incident violated the EPA’s commitment to transparency and scientific honesty.

Prior to taking office, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson declared, “As Administrator, I will ensure EPA’s efforts to address the environmental crises of today are rooted in three fundamental values: science-based policies and programs, adherence to the rule of law, and overwhelming transparency.”

Likewise, CEI reminds the EPA of President Obama’s April 27 speech to the National Academy of Sciences in which he stated, “[U]nder my administration, the days of science taking a back seat to ideology are over.”

In a memo to the EPA, Kazman wrote, “Because of ideology, however, it was this back seat to which Mr. Carlin’s study was relegated; more precisely, it was booted out of the car entirely.”

“The irony of the president and Administrator Jackson talking about EPA’s new transparency and commitment to scientific integrity, that’s really incredible,” Kazman said.

CEI is asking the agency to make Carlin’s study public, extend or reopen the comment period to allow public response to his research and publicly declare that there will be no reprisals against Carlin for his research.

Kazman said the issue is “coming to a head” because the EPA’s internal commentary period just closed, and the 1,200-page Waxman-Markey climate bill to cap greenhouse gas emissions is scheduled to come to a vote Friday on the House floor.

He believes Carlin’s study could have implications on how lawmakers feel about the allegedly solid research behind the climate bill – especially if objecting analysts within the agency are being silenced.

“Any right-minded administrator would have said, ‘Fine, put it in and we’ll give our reasons for why we reject his contentions,” Kazman said. “But instead, they shut the guy up.”

The Trickle-Down Economic Depression: State and Local Governments Raising Taxes

June 22, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

The mass confiscation of individual wealth and property by government continues as insolvent state and local governments adopt a perverse “Me-to-ism” to raise taxes like the federal government and lay claim to their share of your pie.  Instead of massive cuts necessary to balance their budgets; the politicians at all levels of government, are stealing the money from the taxpayers who have already been beaten, nearly to death, by Obama’s insane spending.  In the old days, both people and governments would tighten their belts in hard times: but now the commissars of government, at all level, are tightening their belts around your neck. It’s monkey see monkey do as everyone watches  the federal government massively increase spending, hikes taxes on nearly everything, and ignores the constitution, whenever convenient, to perpetuate waste and corruption that is big government.

Government at all levels is out of control.

The answer to our government woes is clear.  It no longer matters if you are a republican or democrat the question is do you believe in limited government, rule of law, term limits and Capitalism above socialism and communism?  We need to vote for anyone that will support smaller government and the destruction of our professional political class because when you have career politicians, elitists, running the show you have either the seeds or the reality of tyrannical government.  The time has come to remove government from trying to solve social problems that it perpetuates for the purpose of political control. Identity politics must be ended.  We need to be Americans again instead of Black—Americans, Hispanic Americans, Homosexual-Americans, Atheist-Americans and any other sub group hyphenated identification.  This sort of thing is killing this country. 

Socialized Government divides us, to control us, because we’ve abdicated our individual responsibility to a bizarre form of politically-correct-group-think that is now clearly destroying the country. 

We don’t have the money for all the government programs that are currently strangling the life from our economy, and our retirement accounts, to say nothing of our declining home values, and the coming inflationary wave that will wipe out what’s left of our individual saving and checking accounts. The amount of insane duplication of social programs in federal, state, county, local, governments is stunning.  Must we have a sort of Environmental Protection Agency duplicated at every level, from federal to local governments?  Must we have the federal government involved in education at all?  Shall we have “diversity” programs and political correctness commissars at every level of state, federal, county and city government?  Isn’t the purpose of government to create conditions conducive to living our lives as we see fit without becoming obtrusive?  Do you think it’s getting a tad intrusive when government nationalizes whole industries, regulates soda pop because it makes you fat, and mandates health care coverage at a time when the economy is being kept alive be a respirator? Do you like government owning the bank that owns your mortgage?  Do you want to drive a government designed car?  Do you want government to make you weaker while government becomes so bloated, dictatorial and arrogant that they look at you as a necessary evil instead of as the boss of government? Are you the Boss of Government?  Are you waiting for Obama to help you and tell you what to do, think and believe?  When is enough; enough where this government is concerned?

Setting Criminals free because we can’t afford jails is Insane.

California is 24 Billion Short and its answer is to release criminals from prison early instead of taking a meat cleaver to its bloated and crazy budget and reordering its priorities to reflect a freedom loving American state instead of France.  Maine is taxing candy while Wisconsin taxes Oil companies.  Kentucky is taxing cell phone ring tones while Pennsylvania does a 16% increase in state income tax.  Revenue from all sources to government is drying up as the economy gets worse and unemployment continues to rise as the value of the dollar continues to fall.  The Federal Government is thinking about a National Sales Tax, just like Europe, to pay for “healthcare” and the Cap and Trade debacle is still a possibility. It doesn’t matter that gas costs are up over $70 a barrel and expected to continue to climb.  Illinois wants to stop paying for poor people’s funerals and New Hampshire wants to sell nearly 30 state parks.  The beat goes on and on and on. 

There’s no more money and the only intelligent thing to do is to keep first things first at every level of government and to take government out of social spending because it’s dividing the nation and bankrupting us.

We stand in the midst of our own folly.  We’ve elevated government above God and the Family and even the Constitution: and it turns out we were wrong.  Big Government can’t work because it becomes big corruption.  The only way government can be made to truly serve the people is to keep it small and sharply restrict its growth and intrusion into society.  Government won’t give us social justice: it’s just not designed to do so.  Government cant end racism but it can perpetuate it and harvest the votes of perpetual victims to justify more government, bigger government, more powerful government. Government should ensure equality of opportunity: NOT EQUALITY OF OUTCOMES.  The only person who can ensure the equality of an outcome is you.

The Answer to every level of government with a financial problem is the same: Cut taxes and Cut Spending until your budget is balanced.

The only way to prosper and remain free is to demand that government cut itself down to size and to reject any politicians who favor big government and tax increases of any kind. Right now we’re facing a political crisis in which government is out of control.   Government is on a self destructive spending binge, the nefarious Federal Reserve is on an America destroying currency printing spree, and the people are increasingly out of work, exhausted and despondent while trying to maintain a criminal government that’s at least 50% larger than it should be. Why should we pay for big corrupt governments we don’t want don’t need, and that now creates more problems than it solves?  Its incumbent on a free people to put an end to big government before big government put an end to freedom for the people.  You can side with political correctness; social engineering and “activist” judges and government or you can side with limited government, the constitution and personal responsibility.  You can’t have both.

Consider this article by the New York Times that I found on the Drudge Report:

 

States Turning to Last Resorts in Budget Crisis

 By ABBY GOODNOUGH

Published: June 21, 2009

In Hawaii, state employees are bracing for furloughs of three days a month over the next two years, the equivalent of a 14 percent pay cut. In Idaho, lawmakers reduced aid to public schools for the first time in recent memory, forcing pay cuts for teachers.Skip to next paragraph

And in California, where a $24 billion deficit for the coming fiscal year is the nation’s worst, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has proposed releasing thousands of prisoners early and closing more than 200 state parks.

Meanwhile, Maine is adding taxes on candy and ski tickets, Wisconsin on oil companies, and Kentucky on alcohol and cellphone ring tones.

With state revenues in a free fall and the economy choked by the worst recession in 60 years, governors and legislatures are approving program cuts, layoffs and, to a smaller degree, tax increases that were previously unthinkable.

All but four states must have new budgets in place less than two weeks from now — by July 1, the start of their fiscal year. But most are already predicting shortfalls as tax collections shrink, unemployment rises and the stock market remains in turmoil.

“These are some of the worst numbers we have ever seen,” said Scott D. Pattison, executive director of the National Association of State Budget Officers, adding that the federal stimulus money that began flowing this spring was the only thing preventing widespread paralysis, particularly in the areas of education and health care. “If we didn’t have those funds, I think we’d have an incredible number of states just really unsure of how they were going to get a new budget out.”

The states where the fiscal year does not end June 30 are Alabama, Michigan, New York and Texas.

Even with the stimulus funds, political leaders in at least 19 states are still struggling to negotiate budgets, which has incited more than the usual drama and spite. Governors and legislators of the same party are finding themselves at bitter odds: in Arizona, Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican, sued the Republican-controlled Legislature earlier this month after it refused to send her its budget plan in hopes that she would run out of time to veto it.

In Illinois, the Democratic-led legislature is fighting a plan by Gov. Patrick J. Quinn, also a Democrat, to balance the new budget by raising income taxes. And in Massachusetts, Gov. Deval Patrick, a Democrat, has threatened to veto a 25 percent increase in the state sales tax that Democratic legislative leaders say is crucial to help close a $1.5 billion deficit in the new fiscal year.

“Legislators have never dealt with a recession as precipitous and rapid as this one,” said Susan K. Urahn, managing director of the Pew Center on the States. “They’re faced with some of the toughest decisions legislators ever have to make, for both political and economic reasons, so it’s not surprising that the environment has become very tense.”

In all, states will face a $121 billion budget gap in the coming fiscal year, according to a recent report by the National Conference of State Legislatures, compared with $102.4 billion for this fiscal year.

The recession has also proved politically damaging for a number of governors, not least Jon Corzine of New Jersey, whose Republican opponent in this year’s race for governor has tried to make inroads by blaming the state’s economic woes on him. Mr. Schwarzenegger, who sailed into office on a wave of popularity in 2003, will leave in 2011 — barred by term limits from running again — under the cloud of the nation’s worst budget crisis. And the bleak economy has played a major role in the waning popularity of Gov. David A. Paterson of New York.

Over all, personal income tax collections are down by about 6.6 percent compared with last year, according to a survey by Mr. Pattison’s group and the National Governors Association. Sales tax collections are down by 3.2 percent, the survey found, and corporate income tax revenues by 15.2 percent. (Although New Jersey announced last week that a tax amnesty program had brought in an unexpected $400 million — a windfall that caused lawmakers to reconsider some of the deeper cuts in a $28.6 billion budget they were set to approve in advance of the July 1 deadline.)

As a result, governors have recommended increasing taxes and fees by some $24 billion for the coming fiscal year, the survey found. This is on top of more than $726 million they sought in new revenues this year.

The proposals include increases in personal income tax rates — Gov. Edward G. Rendell of Pennsylvania has proposed raising the state’s income tax by more than 16 percent, to 3.57 percent from 3.07 percent, for three years — and tax increases on myriad consumer goods.

“They have done a fair amount of cutting and will probably do some more,” said Ray Scheppach, executive director of the governors association. “But as they look out over the next two or three years, they are also aware that when this federal money stops coming, there is going to be a cliff out there.”

Raising revenues is the surest way to ensure financial stability after the stimulus money disappears, Mr. Scheppach added, saying, “You’re better off to take all the heat at once and do it in one package that gets you through the next two, three or four years.”

While state general fund spending typically increases by about 6 percent a year, it is expected to decline by 2.2 percent for this fiscal year, Mr. Pattison said. The last year-to-year decline was in 1983, he said, on the heels of a national banking crisis.

The starkest crisis is playing out in California, where lawmakers are scrambling to close the $24 billion gap after voters rejected ballot measures last month that would have increased taxes, borrowed money and reapportioned state funds.

Democratic legislative leaders last week offered alternatives to Mr. Schwarzenegger’s recommended cuts, including levying a 9.9 percent tax on oil extracted in the state and increasing the cigarette tax to $2.37 a pack, from 87 cents. But Mr. Schwarzenegger has vowed to veto any budget that includes new taxes, setting the stage for an ugly battle as the clock ticks toward the deadline.

“We still don’t know how bad it will be,” Ms. Urahn said. “The story is yet to be told, because in the next couple of weeks we will see some of the states with the biggest gaps have to wrestle this thing to the ground and make the tough decisions they’ve all been dreading.”

In one preview, Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota, a Republican, said last week that he would unilaterally cut a total of $2.7 billion from nearly all government agencies and programs that get money from the state, after he and Democratic legislative leaders failed to agree on how to balance the budget.

In an example of the countless small but painful cuts taking place, Illinois announced last week that it would temporarily stop paying about $15 million a year for about 10,000 funerals for the poor. Oklahoma is cutting back hours at museums and historical sites, Washington is laying off thousands of teachers, and New Hampshire wants to sell 27 state parks.

Nor will the pain end this year, Ms. Urahn said, even if the recession ends, as some economists have predicted. Unemployment could keep climbing through 2010, she said, continuing to hurt tax collections and increasing the demand for Medicaid, one of states’ most burdensome expenses.

“Stress on the Medicaid system tends to come later in a recession, and we have yet to see the depth of that,” Ms. Urahn said. “So you will see, for the next couple years at least, states really struggling with this.”

Oil will Usher in the Leading Wave of Inflation: Oil prices Higher while Government Destroys the Dollar

June 11, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

 

Here we go again.  I have the feeling that it’s going to be a rough summer, especiallyin July and September as a number of events combine to give us part two of the financial horror show that is our country.  California is in dire straits and has about fifty days left before its completely out of money.  Its politiciansare in gridlock as they continue to livein denial about the magnitude of the budget cuts necessaryto restore order and sanity to the state government.  Other states are going to be following suit, mostly all the big liberal states that havebought into the idea that government is your daddy and that government is going to take care of you.  The other big deal, also the product of denial on the part of Washington politicians, if not mass psychosis, is the extravagant borrowing if finally unleashing inflationthe leading edges of which revolve around gas prices as our dollar continues to plummet.

 

Perhaps you’ve noticed: Gas Prices have been Going UP!

 

Gas prices are in the $70 a barrel range now and within a week or two it’ll be in the $80’s.  As the stimulus spending is wasted by congress who now wants to shovel money faster in the economy, they weaken the dollar dramatically and thus oil and other commodity’s goes up.  It’s a vicious cycle and we’re in it. Some people say we’ll stabilize around $90 to $100 for a while and other prognosticators say that as the ObamaAdministration and the nefarious Federal Reserve trash the dollar that oil will just continue to go up until it destroys the economy.  Either way the prices are going higher and I suspect that we’re seeing the leading edge of an inflationary tsunami that will shortly engulf us in yet another agonizing summer of bad economic news. The Arabs are not likely to raise production until its in the low hundreds a barrel and the Russians are champing at the bit to drive oil as high as possible and recover some economic clout.

 

Consider the following story from the Guardian UK:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/jun/10/oil-market-reserves/print

 

Oil price leaps to year’s high

Predictions of $250 a barrel on fears for oil reserves, hopes of economic recovery and hedging against weak dollar

  

 

The price of oilburst through the $71 a barrel mark today amid revelations that proven reserves had fallen for the first time in 10 years and predictions that the price could eventually hit $250.

The latest high – from lows of $30 only four months ago – came on the New York Mercantile Exchange, where the cost of July deliveries rose by $1.35 to $71.36.

This comes on top of a $2 rise the day before as investors rushed into the market on the back of lower stockpile figures, higher demand estimates and speculation against further falls in the dollar.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re testing $80 in a week or two,” said one analyst, while BP’s chief executive, Tony Hayward, questioned whether $90 could be the “right” value.

Kuwait’s oil minister, Sheikh Ahmad al-Abdullah al-Sabah, put some of the rise down to signs of recovery in Asia but warned that overall demand was still weaker than last year. Opec would not raise supply at current oil prices but did not rule it out “if it reached $100″, he said.

Alexei Miller, chairman of the Russian energygroup Gazprom, raised the stakes further when he reiterated last year’s estimates of $250 a barrel. “This forecast has not become reality yet, given that the [credit] crisis gained momentum and exerted a powerful impact on the global energy market. But does this mean that our forecast was unrealistic? Not at all.”

The latest surge has also raised fears that higher energy costs could snuff out the nascent economic recovery. Shares on Wall Street’s Nasdaq index fell 1%.

The febrile atmosphere in oil markets was fed by the publication of BP’s Statistical Review of World Energy, which showed that the world’s proven crude reserves had fallen by 3bn barrels to 1.258tn by 2008 from a revised 1.261tn in 2007.

Declines in important producers such as Russia and Norway offset rises in new areas such as Vietnam, India and Egypt. The figures did not include Canada’s tar sands, which are put at 150bn barrels.

The drop is partly attributed to a drop in exploration drilling due to the precipitous fall in oil prices last year but also to the end of “easy” oil. Conflict this week in the Amazon and speculation about Arctic drilling underlined how oil companies are pushing into environmentally sensitive places to find new reserves.

Tony Hayward, BP’schief executive, insisted there was enough crude to last 42 years at current consumption levels, roughly the same as last year. Adherents of “peak oil” – the theory that the maximum rate of oil production has been reached – believe supplies will run out much sooner because of growing demand.

The BPboss said: “Our data confirms that the world has enough proved reserves of oil, natural gas and coal to meet the world’s energy needs for decades to come.” Higher prices allowed companies to invest in finding further reserves while not choking off demand, he said.

“There is a rational argument to say that somewhere between $60 to $90 a barrel is the right sort of level,” he said.

Global oil consumption fell 0.6% to 81.8m barrels a day in 2008, the first decline since 1993 and the largest drop for 27 years. North Sea output dropped 6.3% to its lowest level for three decades.

By contrast, gas use rose by 2.5% globally and 16% in China. The use of coal, the heaviest emitter of climate-changing carbon, rose 3.1%, with Chinese demand up 6.8%, leaving it with a market share of 43% despite more high-profile announcements about its commitment to renewables.

BP says it is difficult to compare “primary” carbon fuels with renewable sources of electricity. BP notes that globally solar capacity rose nearly 70% and wind by 30% year on year but says renewables only generated 1.5% of global electricity and therefore began at a low base.But it notes these sources are playing an increasingly important role in some countries with wind power providing 20% of total electricity generation in Denmark, 11% in Spain and 7% in Germany.

Despite the 2008 rise in coal consumption, the BPdata showed growth in the use of the fuel continued to decline compared with 2007 when it rose 5% and five years ago when it went up by 8%.

But the coal figures will alarm environmentalists and increase the calls for companies and governments to speed up trials on “clean coal” technology and the use of carbon capture and storage.

China has promised to increase its use of renewables: Zhang Xiaoqiang, vice-chairman of the China’s national development and reform commission, says the country may produce as much as 20% of its energy from wind and solar by 2020.

Israel under the Bus: Obama sides with Arabs and Islamic Using Netanyahu as an Excuse

June 8, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

The Pro Islamic Obama Administration has thrown Israel under the bus in favor of a pie in the sky friendship with Islamic nations that have no hope of being realized.  It’s as if the Administration believes that it need not respect the work of previous administration that were not as enlightened, worldly, narcissistic and socialist as the Obama Administration.  Barak Obama is an ideological, hyper-partisan socialist who has absorbed, and now personifies the Anti Semitic stains of leftist ideology, and now has the ability to act out his ideological ignorance on the world stage. The only guide Obama has is the baby-boom, civil rights, anti white, and anti male bigotry that kindly Americans figured the higher educational system would one day evolve beyond.  This is a system that makes the so called victims, Blacks, Women, Hispanics, Kids, Handicapped people to be more human and of greater worth than white males who supposedly oppress them. Ironically this hateful doctrine is referred to as “multiculturalism” and its infested all the nations schools.  This is the social equivalent of junk science like “global warming” and the famous “gay gene”.  In other words these are publically generated abuses of “science” to perpetuate falsehood aimed at legitimizing a political aim or policy that could not otherwise be justified.

The fact that Israel has been and probably will remain a great ally and friend of the United States can’t compete with the leftist inclination, complete with a European flair of sophistication, to blame the Jews for the worlds ills instead of the clearly insane Islamic who are simply out of control. Israel is a modern, successful, freedom loving democracy that deserves many times over our admiration and support.  Most Middle East Arab/Islamic countries are backwards nations that despise freedom, enslave women and children, and hold the lives of anyone who disagrees with their world view very cheaply indeed. While it’s appropriate for us to respect the fact that hostile and repressive governments and cultures do exist and we need to be civil with them: it’s insane to suggest that such inhumane backwaters of bigotry and oppression should ever be favored over a democracy.  Israel has rule of law and the Islamic nations have a form of Sharia law that justifies the enslavement of millions to say nothing of the murder of non Muslims.  At the end of the day we’re pretending that Islam has produced a civilization that’s of greater worth and commands more respect than Israel: and that’s simply not true.  Islam is more a state of barbaric despotism than a legitimate state.  We need not and should not respect Islam when it calls for the destruction of Israel or when it calls the USA the “great Satan”. To take the side of the Arab/ Islamic nations against Israel who has offered peace from the beginning in favor of bloodthirsty Islamic jerks who want to destroy every Jew in Israel just for being Jewish, as they have consistently proclaimed over six decades, is obscene.

I’ve been monitoring the realization of Obama’s betrayal in the Israeli press for some time now and they’re far ahead of the American People in realizing that Obama has withdrawn American support for this good and trusted friend.  The American press continues to promote the Islamic view even after decades of Israeli concessions and Moslem lies and broken agreements.  If Islam had treated the United States the way they do Israel we would have wiped them out decades ago because we don’t have anything approaching the patience of our friend Israel.  Nevertheless Obama has become the Islamic champion of American Foreign Policy because he gets as much applause from European audiences for denouncing Israel as he does for defaming the nation he’s supposed to be leading. The betrayal of Barak Husain Obama means that Israel has nothing left to lose and a mortal enemy with a nuke salivating over the chance to wipe them off the face of the earth.  Obama’s ideological nonsense has made war inevitable and he has hastened the day it will come by his treachery and contempt for our best Middle East Allie. 

Consider the following story from the Debka File:

 

Clinton shreds Bush-Israel settlement understandings, fuels US-Israel row

DEBKAfile Special Analysis

June 6, 2009, 11:39 PM (GMT+02:00)

 

Gloves off, no more legalistic quibbling

US secretary of state Hillary Clinton roughly rejected any secret Bush agreements with Israel on expanding settlements. Her intention was to have the last word and so shut down the Obama administration’s argument with Israel over a West Bank settlement freeze. But she only threw fresh fuel on the fire when she stated emphatically on Friday, June 5, that according to the negotiating record which Bush officials turned over to the Obama administration, “There is no memorialization of any informal and oral agreements.”

Israel officials have protested that Barack Obama’s demand for a total freeze on settlement expansion contradicts a series of understandings – some written, some oral – with Bush officials which permitted expansion under certain conditions. This argument was put forward by prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu in his wide-ranging talks with the US president on May 18 and reaffirmed by Israeli officials when they met US Middle East envoy George Mitchell in London ten days later.

This key understanding referred to was reached in 2004: It provided for Israel’s voluntary evacuation of the Gaza Strip and the northern tip of the West Bank (which took place the following year) would be counter-balanced by Washington’s acceptance of the need for continuing construction in the large population blocks in other parts of West Bank territory to meet natural growth needs.

This understanding was reached by Bush’s national security adviser, Stephen Hadley and his deputy Elliott Abrams in talks with Israeli officials. Brig. Gen.

At their London meeting of May 28, Mike Herzog, defense minister Ehud Barak’s chief of staff, bore witness to Mitchell that he had led the Israeli team at the 2004 talks and that those talks had indeed ended with the two US NSC heads’ endorsement on behalf of the Bush administration of continued Israeli settlement construction to keep pace with the natural growth of those communities.

Elliott Abrams is quoted Friday by the Washington Post as acknowledging last week that there had been unwritten understandings between Washington and Jerusalem, as Brig. Herzog affirmed.

By repudiating any such understandings – written and spoken – Clinton has dragged US-Israeli relations into a new trough. It is now a straight issue of word against word, Washington versus Jerusalem’s. This is a dark point for restarting any peace process between Israel and Palestinians or other Arab governments for an accord on substantial issues which have defeated every past peace effort.

The “settlements” referred to by Obama in his demand for an end to all construction apply to five Israeli urban centers: its capital, Jerusalem, which the US does not recognize with or without its post-1967 extensions (although successive administrations have pledged to locate its embassy there), Maaleh Adummim just east of Jerusalem, Efrat to the south, Ariel to the north and Modiin Ilit, southeast of Tel Aviv.

Their total population is estimated between 250,000 and 300,000, plus isolated communities which are home to another approximate 180,000 Jewish inhabitants.

These figures do not include the unauthorized outposts over whose removal Israel is not arguing.

Abrams in an article he published on April 8 hinted that the passage in the 2004 Bush letter to Ariel Sharon – “It is realistic to expect that any final status agreement will only be achieved on the basis of mutually agreed changes that reflect these realities” – was an indirect recognition of demographic “changes” (in the Israeli and Palestinian populations over 42 years) and understanding for the “realities” applying to the large settlement blocks, meaning that Israel was entitled to continue their development.

However, DEBKAfile’s Washington sources stress, Eliot Abrams has no standing in the new administration. Obama and his team will adopt or dump the understandings reached by his White House predecessors not according to archival evidence but according to whether or not they suit his new international policy directions over which Jerusalem is getting badly worried.

The Netanyahu government is now facing its first real test. In Washington, the gloves are off. If the prime minister holds to his defensive, accommodating posture toward on the settlement issue and fails to punch back with demands that the other side – and the United States itself stand by former accords and commitments – he will find himself inexorably forced back step by step on other vital security interests, including Iran’s accelerated nuclear weapons program.

Legalistic quibbling over dead letters will not avail – as Israeli officials will discover when confronted with new pressures for concessions from US envoy Mitchell next week.

Neo Fascist Nations Like China Undermine the Worlds Economy: Using the Global Economy as a Weapon of War and Conquest

June 4, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

We’re all familiar with the effects of a nation like China attracting huge amounts of the worlds manufacturing business because they have no environmental laws, no real employment law or benefits so labor is dirt cheap.  Here in the USA it’s been called outsourcing and it’s a way of describing the loss of our manufacturing base to nations whose people are just cogs of a totalitarian government. No modern western democracy can compete with Chinese factories because with state control and totalitarianism they can, and do, beat Western manufacturing costs by a mile. 

They have millions of perpetually unemployed people, no expectation of meaningful health care, no concerns for controlling the pollution, and no labor strikes or decent labor wages by order of the all powerful state. Business and economic activity are but additional methods for the state to interact with other nations on the world stage.  This is the ruthless harnessing of an economy as a weapon of mass destruction and as a tool of both statecraft and war. Government control of the economy has given China enough dollars to possibly destroy the US Dollar at will, its gutted our manufacturing base and created dependency on foreign nations for our manufacturing, Its siphoned off tremendous wealth from consuming nations like ours to producing nations like china: who use the money to vastly modernize their military perhaps to US standards. 

We’re cutting military funding and the Chinese are in double digit increases every year.  They want to be our military rivals and with our money they’re on course to do just that!  With totalitarian state control they don’t care if they have the most polluted cities on earth they want the economic and military power to challenge the USA and all comers.  The West is in denyal about how willing China is to cover their own country with pollution if it gains them control of the world economy and makes them a military superpower.  No western nation would destroy its own land to pursue such a goal but the totalitarian government of China is doing exactly that. Outsourcing is a national security issue as much as an economic issue. 

Technological innovation and cyber advances were our ace in the whole but now the Chinese and the Russians lead the world in Cyber Warfare while the West seems still to underestimate how important it is to keep our advantages in these areas.  The Chinese have an ambitious space program and, along with the Indians, are planning to go to the moon while we retire our shuttles and hitch rides with the Russians if we want to go to the International Space Station.

Here is the cold truth of the matter:  If you don’t care about polluting your land, are willing to pay your people next to nothing, are willing to ruthlessly suppress labor rights and are willing to accommodate any nation’s needs to get their business, you can run circles around a democracy in the short term. Western Factory workers anticipate something of a middle class lifestyle, decent and safe working conditions, vacations, health care, advancement, disability compensation insurance and so on.  Chinese workers are happy to make enough to be marginally subsistent.  If a modern democratic economy tries to compete with a neo socialist totalitarian economy there is no way for the democracy to win because the playing field is fundamentally unequal.  There is no competition because in the west we want to employ people so they can have a life while in the east they want to employ people to undercut our economy, thereby growing their military and undermining our economy for the purpose of control.  A fundamentally unfair and inhumane policy of slave labor is used to destabilize capitalist democracies which then become dependent on the totalitarian regime and incrementally the democracy ceases to exist.  We’re not in a trade war with china: we’re in a very real economic war in which the winner will take all and the loser will serve the winner as if enemy troops concurred the land.

Consider this story from Reuters UK and ask yourself why trade with totalitarian regimes like China has resulted in the erosion of our standard of rather than the elevation to our level for Chinese workers. I we continue to play the game Chinese style we’re going to lose big time.

 

Democracy seen threatened by new authoritarianism

Thu Jun 4, 2009 2:18pm BST

By Paul Eckert

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – China, Iran, Russia and Venezuela form a clique of authoritarian states that use their wealth and influence to undermine global democracy and rule of law, a study by U.S.-funded agencies said on Thursday.

The report, released on the 20th anniversary of China’s suppression of the Tiananmen democracy movement, says these states’ challenge to Western democratic institutions represents a far “murkier picture” than the Cold War because they are integrated into the global economy and world bodies.

“Policymakers do not appear to appreciate the dangers these 21st century authoritarian models pose to democracy and rule of law around the world,” said the study by Freedom House, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and Radio Free Asia, all prominent U.S. democracy-promotion bodies.

“Just as they rule without law within their borders, authoritarian regimes are eroding the international rules and standards built up by the democratic world over the past several decades, threatening to export the instability and abuses that their systems engender,” it said.

The study said manufacturing and trading power China and petro-states Iran, Russia and Venezuela shared strong similarities despite their distinct political systems and backgrounds.

Authoritarian capitalist China and Russia have built systems that twin “impressive economic development with an equally impressive apparatus of political control,” it said.

CURBS ON OPPOSITION, MEDIA

Shiite Muslim clergy-ruled Iran and Venezuela, run by “a novel type of Latin American” strongman, held managed elections amid curbs on the opposition and on media, it said.

Ruling powers in the four states buttressed their control with tight restrictions on the Internet and media, promotion of nationalist versions of history in school textbooks and use of state wealth to serve their own interests, said the report.

Internationally, China has built a strong following in Africa and Latin America with generous no-strings-attached aid packages. Russia, Iran and Venezuela have used oil wealth to support regional clients, said the report.

“At the regional and international level, these authoritarian regimes are undercutting or crippling the democracy-promotion and human rights efforts of rules-based organizations,” it said.

Targets included the United Nations, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), and the Organisation of American States (OAS), added the report.

The report also included Pakistan because of its struggling democracy, history of military rule and growing extremist insurgency.

Democracies needed to stand against the authoritarian tide and do more to safeguard and promote democratic institutions, said the report, without spelling out suggested responses.

“As the world’s democracies have struggled to find a common approach to the problem, or even to agree that there is a problem, modern authoritarian states have worked diligently to spread their influence,” it said.

Rebellion in the Puppet Theatre: When Governments Warn of Central Bankers You Know its Trouble

June 3, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

 

The Nefarious Federal Reserve System and the gangster Al Capone have much in common these days.  It seems the Federal Reserve has shed its cloak of inscrutability for more flamboyant apparel as it has taken a very public leading role in combating the “financial crisis”.  Clearly the long term interests of the Fed are served by secrecy.  The Central Banks are owned by the super rich and they have prospered by secrecy and a cloak of obfuscation regarding their role as the governments, government.  It’s as if Al Capone had forgotten he was a gangster and a thief and that he had caused the problems he’s now trying so publicly to solve. Like Al Capone the Federal Reserve has no legitimate role in the economy because all the problems it would solve are self generated by an oligarchy of super rich families who are on to the next phase of social engineering by perverting the economy to do their bidding just as they used education and the media.

The Robber Barons of old, the Morgan’s, Rothschild’s, Rockefellers, were Millionaires before the last great Depression and they came out the other side as the world’s first Billionaires.  The cycle appears to be repeating and the Billionaire elites of today will doubtless emerge as the world’s first Trillionairs at the expense of every human being, and government, on this Earth. The worlds banking elites see their power grow after each economic depression and they fund both sides in our world wars so they always come out on top.

The Governments of the West, led by the USA, which is in turn a wholly owned subsidiary of the Federal Reserve System, have effectively been looted by financial institutions and industries deemed “too big to fail” and now the finale will be hyperinflation. The Federal Reserve may have avoided a depression with aggressive actions but they have surely destroyed the US Dollar in the process.  I doubt that we will be able to avoid a depression when the worthless US Dollar implodes from the Machiavellian Machinations of the central banks and the supremely powerful elites who own it.

The Power Elite masters of money have been so successful at hiding their control that most people believe that the Federal Reserve System is a part of the Federal Government.  It’s about as much a part of the government as “federal express”.  It’s a consortium of profit making banks that prints our currency for us, at interest of course, and lends it back to us and manages the financial world with limited involvement by the government. 

The President appoints the head of the Fed from a list of candidates supplied by the Fed!  The government can’t audit the Fed and has no input, beyond advisory input, into its decisions, policies or procedures.  The Fed is a completely autonomous central bank of the United States and its power, as people are beginning to wake up and see, by far surpasses the government of the United States.  The Fed can give us life, or it can take it away; in a contrived financial rescue that destroys the currency and with it the United States of America.  The Fed doesn’t work for America, or our government: it works for its stockholders and directors: the world’s elite banking dynasties.  If they decide the US must lose power they can do it and there’s nothing our government can do to stop them.

For much of our recent history there’s this tacit agreement between the financial elite and Western Governments in which we all agree to pretend that the financial elite don’t exist and the governments are calling the shots on world affairs.  Governments come and go and yet our course seems to be the same because the real power behind the Democrats and Republicans is the world’s financial elite.  It’s their policies that rule our lives not the political puppet theatre that is beholding to big money for election and re-election and high paid lobbying jobs and speaking fees if they should lose office. People are upset because the government seems not to listen to us, the people, anymore and they’re right.  The government, our professional politicians, listens to big money that controls the economy, education, media and government itself.  We can’t do anything to the professional politicians that big money can’t fix so why should they listen to us?  The lack of term limits has destroyed our power and given rise to a puppet theatre of politicians who base their decisions on the will of the financial elite rather than the will of the people.

A funny thing happened in Germany recently.  Their Prime Minister, Angela Merkel, accused the central banks of the west of creating another big bubble that threatens the German economy and that of every other nation as well.  The Germans don’t speculate about the economic conditions of the Weimar Republic as we do because they lived through it.  They know exactly what it can do, and did do, to Germany and the kind of leaders that emerge in economic conditions of such desperation.  It’s not a theoretical exercise for them, as it is for us in America,  it’s a living memory of pain etched on the faces of their grandparents and great grandparents.  Perhaps it’s not surprising that the only voice of warning from western governments rises from Germany about the dangers of hyper inflation and trashing your currency.  It’s a poignant cry of national memory that the world would do well to heed but the world goes on spending and borrowing while Chinese Students openly laugh at our Treasury Secretary Geithner as he assures them their American investments are “safe”.

Germany Blasts ‘Powers of the Fed’

By JOELLEN PERRY

AFP/Getty Images

In a speech on Tuesday in Berlin, Chancellor Angela Merkel expressed ‘great skepticism’ over the clout of central banks and suggested their aggressive moves in Europe, the U.S. and the U.K. might backfire. She is shown here at a rally later in Saarbrücken, Germany, for European Parliamentary elections.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel, in a rare public rebuke of central banks, suggested the European Central Bank and its counterparts in the U.S. and Britain have gone too far in fighting the financial crisis and may be laying the groundwork for another financial blowup.

“I view with great skepticism the powers of the Fed, for example, and also how, within Europe, the Bank of England has carved out its own small line,” Ms. Merkel said in a speech in Berlin. “We must return together to an independent central-bank policy and to a policy of reason, otherwise we will be in exactly the same situation in 10 years’ time.”

Ms. Merkel also said the ECB “bowed somewhat to international pressure” when it said last month it plans to buy €60 billion ($85 billion) in corporate bonds — a move that is modest in comparison to asset-buying by its counterparts, the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Bank of England. Details are to be unveiled by the ECB’s president, Jean-Claude Trichet, Thursday.

The public criticism is unusual — and not only because German politicians rarely talk harshly about central banks in public. When politicians around the world do criticize their central banks, they almost always gripe that they are too tightfisted.

The conservative German leader’s comments came as Europe’s statistical agency reported that unemployment in the 16 countries that share the euro rose to 9.2% in April — the highest level since September 1999 and still below the 11.5% that the European Commission forecasts for 2010.

However, the economic straits of countries within the euro zone vary widely. Germany’s unemployment rate of 7.7%, for instance, contrasts with 18.8% in Spain, where a collapse in the construction industry that was driving the economy has pushed unemployment to the highest in the euro zone.

It isn’t clear what triggered Ms. Merkel’s remarks, which came in a prepared speech. The ECB has been markedly less aggressive than the Fed or the Bank of England, particularly in moving beyond cuts in short-term interest rates to buy bonds to boost economic activity. However, German officials traditionally have been on the more conservative end of the central bankers’ spectrum, partly because the country’s hyperinflation of the 1920s is seared into people’s memories.

 

Reuters

European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet will unveil Thursday details of a plan to buy some $85 billion in corporate debt. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the ECB ‘bowed somewhat to international pressure.’

The ECB, the Fed and the Bank of England are increasingly vulnerable to criticism because they have played such a prominent role and crossed so many traditional lines in the past several months — even though they do appear to have steered their economies away from a repeat of the Great Depression. Neither the ECB, the Fed nor the Bank of England had any comment on Ms. Merkel’s remarks.

Her tough comments about the extent to which the central banks are intervening in the economy also come amid attacks on her by some in her conservative base for putting €1.5 billion of taxpayer money into a deal to shield Opel from parent company General Motors Corp.’s bankruptcy-protection filing.

Ms. Merkel’s critique jibes with statements from Axel Weber, the head of Germany’s central bank and a member of the ECB’s 22-person Governing Council. He has warned that too-loose monetary policy could fuel future inflation. Mr. Weber was among the body’s most vocal skeptics on asset purchases before the bond-buying program, reservations that were also shared by Jürgen Stark, another German on the ECB council. In a May 12 speech, Mr. Weber warned that overly generous monetary policy had helped build asset-price bubbles in the past.

In contrast, Athanasios Orphanides, the former Fed economist who now heads the Cypriot central bank, has been a vocal proponent of aggressive ECB policy. And many private-sector economists contend the ECB’s response to the global recession has been too cautious. The ECB cut its key rate to a record low of 1% in May. Mr. Trichet hasn’t ruled out further cuts, but most economists expect the central bank to stand pat Thursday and foresee the rate remaining at 1% for the rest of this year. The Fed cut its analogous rate nearly to zero in December and has said it will keep it there for some time.

Although the administration of President Barack Obama has carefully avoided criticizing the Fed, Republicans and Democrats in Congress have questioned the wisdom of the Fed’s power and its governance as they contemplate far-reaching changes to the nation’s financial regulatory structure. The senior Republican on the Senate Banking Committee, Richard Shelby of Alabama, recently asserted that “an inherent web of conflicts is built into the DNA of the Fed as it now exists,” a reference to commercial bankers’ role in overseeing the Fed’s 12 regional banks.

Some private economists — and a few inside the Fed — say the Fed’s aggressiveness is increasing the risks of an outbreak of inflation and creating the unwelcome perception that it will bail out big financial institutions when they take big risks that turn out badly.

Obama’s World View is a Threat to Peace: Ideological Foreign Policy Is Invariably a Disaster

June 2, 2009 · Leave a Comment

 

 

It would seem that Obama has crossed the line that declares Iran’s quest for nuclear technology is understandable and legitimate.  According to Obama, the aspiration to nuclear energy, provided it is for peaceful purposes; is actually something of a “right.”  He goes on to suggest that the tensions between Muslims and West are based largely on cultural misunderstanding and the better our cultures get to know each other the less reason there will be for conflict between us.  It’s not that Obama is weak or stupid: it’s that he is taking the high road by refusing to impose our American cultural values on Iran by pretending we have the right to decide who is and is not worthy of nuclear technology.  It’s doubtless “oppression”, in the mind of Obama, for America to force the suppression of nuclear power in a Muslim country like Iran; and to wink and give tacit approval to the Israeli position of both nuclear technology and weapons.

Remember: Barak Obama is steeped in the academic view of America that says it’s largely “white male cultural values” that are fundamentally “oppressive” to the colored peoples of the earth in addition to women, children, and the disabled and non heterosexuals.  He’s also been steeped in the view that all distinctions of good and evil, right and wrong, good and bad, are “culturally created” and no given “culture” is better than another.  If Iran thinks its jolly good to treat women like chattel than we must give that view as much moral equivalence as the idea that women should be free to chose their life course, with equality, in a Post Christian America.  In the upside down ivory tower world of academics, over several decades, there is an insistence that a culture of cannibals that thinks we can eat our neighbor for dinner is morally equivalent to a culture that believes we should love and honor our neighbor. The nation’s academics believe that to make judgments about the cannibal’s “culture” or to call it “wrong” or “evil” is a fundamentally racist imposition of White Male Christian thinking that victimizes cannibal culture unfairly.  (And if the cannibals are non white it’s really white male RACISM, if not a Hate Crime!) 

Iran is a country of Muslims who declares (and who are we to suspect otherwise) that they want to develop nuclear power for their nation’s energy needs.  Obama says that’s a legitimate aspiration.  The fact that they may want to develop, and are developing nuclear weapons, is a cultural misunderstanding based on the realities of western oppression; and perhaps a misunderstanding about how their possession of nukes may cause other country’s to develop them as a deterrent. (Muslim nations like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and The Emirates and so on.) In the Ivory Tower World of Academic Ideology no nation can morally say to Iran: “You can’t have nukes, but we can” because in addition to being racist that would be unfair. This basic code of academic conduct and article of academic faith is part of what destroyed our education system and now it’s being elevated to determining the foreign policy of the United States of America. Take a good look at what moral relativism has done to our colleges and education system and ask yourself if you would like to live in a world governed by the mad hatter of political correctness.

Here is a stunning concept: Some cultures, like some people, are better than others and this has always and will always be the case. We’re created equally and that’s where equality ends. Life is unfair and man can’t make it fair. The Soviet Union and communism were human attempts at equality and would still exist today if communism had worked.  There is no equality but there are higher orders of morality toward which we can and should strive.  The Judaic/Christian culture that for a time flourished in the United States, as laid out by our founding fathers, was probably the best cultural roadmap ever envisioned by the mind of man toward a just society.  It was not perfect but it worked while people were taught that your values matter, rather than your values are culturally created “truth” that’s fundamentally a racist illusion. There is a difference between Good and evil it’s not just a matter of economic and social justice that will result in Utopia.  There is no Utopia.  That’s something the professors can never figure out.

I think Muslim Culture has real problems with its extreme wings in several countries but most especially in Iran.  I think that the Iranians will roast another six million Jews in Israel, without hesitation, if they get a nuclear bomb and I don’t care to understand a “culture” that says its justified in killing Jews just because they’re Jews.  I refuse to be “sensitive” to the mass murderer community.  I think it’s morally correct to stop such a slaughter if you have the power to stop it as we, the USA, does have the power.  Its neither an “imposition” nor “oppression” to insist that wiping out Israel, in a nuclear fireball, is wrong, evil, unjustified, and the act of stopping a nation whose “culture” gives them the liberty to wipe out those who disagree is good, right and justified. Does that mean that I think our Judaic/Christian respect for life is superior to the Muslim concept of Jihad and resistance offered to infidels? (Infidels= those who disagree with Muslims) You bet it does!

Christianity outgrew the crusades a long time ago but the Muslims are still playing with concepts like Jihad to the detriment of themselves and everyone on the planet.  You don’t see Lutherans blowing up Methodists or those pesky “New Age” people at coffee shops because they disagree do you?  You see a constant stream of Muslims blowing up “Infidels” and other Muslim sects, because they feel entitled to do so.  That stinks.  It’s wrong.  It’s Evil.  (And it’s not “racist” to say so, on the contrary, it would be unintelligent not to acknowledge this truth.) Perhaps it’s become a duty to replace politically correct thinking with rational thought.

Like a good academic, Obama wants to give Iran a pass on “nuclear power” just as he wanted to criminalize the Bush administration policy allowing water boarding.  Obama believes water boarding to be immoral because it’s “torturer”, just as getting tough with Iran on nuclear proliferation would be “oppressive”, and a morally repugnant imposition of our values on a poor country.

I would water board Obama, Obama’s Momma, and even your momma, if I thought it would help me save thousand, perhaps more, lives from a mad man from a backward culture steeped in hate. Water boarding works and it saved lives according to the memo’s Mr. Obama now doesn’t want us to see.  Bombing the nuclear facilities of rouge nations with very public vendettas against a neighboring nation saves lives and prevents another holocaust.  Mr. Obama would doubtless call this the typical kind of white male domination that created all our problems to begin with but I would just call it common sense.  You don’t give guns to angry children and you don’t allow guys like Hitler or Ahmadinejad to have nuclear weapons.  It may not be “sensitive” but it’s the truth.

All of law is a values statement.  Show me one law that is not a values statement. Law is an imposition of conduct by the government on its citizens that we all agree to abide by.  Those who don’t agree go to jail because we don’t value murder, rape, and stealing.  We have speed limits because we value safety in residential neighborhoods.  We have laws about not intimidating voters because we value fair elections.  We have gun laws because we value keeping guns out of the hands of criminals.  We have international law because we as a planet value harmony and peace among nations.  We have the right to insist that nuclear proliferation be halted, because it’s international law, based on a good and just value regarding keeping the peace and saving lives.

Law is not an “imposition of values” nor is it “oppression” to enforce it.  Lawless societies are not “more free” or morally superior to us they are states of anarchy that are rightly repulsive to our values.

Barak Obama was a constitutional law professor; and now he’s the President of the United States and he’s worried about “imposing our views” on Iran who’s openly bragging about how they’re going to wipe Israel off the map.  Obama sees himself as one wise enough not to “impose his views” and to correct the “institutional racism of American Foreign Policy”. Mr. Obama seems determined to do the “Politically Correct” thing of not “imposing our values” on Iran. Well that sure is a noble, if grandiose thought, and I sure hope it’s correct because I think avoiding a nuclear war in the Middle East is an attainable goal that is morally just and good.  I think we could help Israel bomb out the nuclear program of Iran, a culturaly backward country who wants to finish what Hitler started: and this would be the Morally Correct thing for us to do.

It’s a good thing Mr. Obama, steeped in academia as he is, need not concern himself with morality because he knows it’s all relative from one culture to the next.  There is no right and wrong.  I wonder if that’s why he would call me a “racist” and I wonder if he would ever figure out that calling people a racist is irrelevant if there is no right and wrong.

Consider the story below and the consequences of what happens if Obama and his politically correct foreign policy kills another six million or so Jews, our allies who trust in us, and ask yourself what this cowardly retreat before Iran does to the Moral Authority of America?  It’s a good thing that in Obama’s world “morality” is an illusion that fundamentally does not exist or we as a nation would have some explaining to do to our creator for why we let this happen.

Obama says Iran’s energy concerns legitimate

By NANCY ZUCKERBROD
The Associated Press
Tuesday, June 2, 2009 9:24 AM

LONDON — President Barack Obama suggested that Iran may have some right to nuclear energy _ provided it proves by the end of the year that its aspirations are peaceful.

In a BBC interview broadcast Tuesday, he also restated plans to pursue direct diplomacy with Tehran to encourage it set aside any ambitions for nuclear weapons it might harbor.

Iran has insisted its nuclear program is aimed at generating electricity. But the U.S. and other Western governments accuse Tehran of seeking atomic weapons.

“What I do believe is that Iran has legitimate energy concerns, legitimate aspirations,” Obama said, adding that the international community also “has a very real interest” in preventing a nuclear arms race.

The president has indicated a willingness to seek deeper international sanctions against Tehran if it does not respond positively to U.S. attempts to open negotiations on its nuclear program. Obama has said Tehran has until the end of the year to show it wants to engage with Washington.

“Although I don’t want to put artificial time tables on that process, we do want to make sure that, by the end of this year, we’ve actually seen a serious process move forward. And I think that we can measure whether or not the Iranians are serious,” Obama said.

Obama’s interview offered a preview of a speech he is to deliver in Egypt this week, saying he hoped the address would warm relations between Americans and Muslims abroad.

“What we want to do is open a dialogue,” Obama told the BBC. “You know, there are misapprehensions about the West, on the part of the Muslim world. And, obviously, there are some big misapprehensions about the Muslim world when it comes to those of us in the West.”

Obama leaves in the evening on a trip to Egypt and Saudi Arabia aimed at reaching out to the world’s 1.5 billion Muslims. He is due to make his speech in Cairo on Thursday.

Obama sounded an optimistic note about making progress toward resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, although he offered no new ideas for how he might try to secure a freeze on new building of Israeli settlements. The United States has called for a freeze, but Israeli leaders have rejected that.

Asked what he would say during his visit about human rights abuses, including the detention of political prisoners in Egypt, Obama indicated no stern lecture would be forthcoming.

He said he hoped to deliver the message that democratic values are principles that “they can embrace and affirm.”

Obama added that there is a danger “when the United States, or any country, thinks that we can simply impose these values on another country with a different history and a different culture.”
