IQ Arbitrage Buffalo News reports: With the holidays nearly upon us, no documentary is more timely than tonight’s “Frontline” presentation, “The Card Game.” Better yet, it should have run on Halloween week because it exposes many of the “tricks and traps” disguised as treats to credit card holders. … The show airs at 9 tonight on WNED-TV. … But the interview subject who contributes the best perspective is a former banking executive, Shailesh Mehta, who made millions when he ran Providian Bank by using deceptive credit card practices that targeted financially stressed customers. Mehta tells how the game is played to entice lower-and ...
Ed Begley vs Fox's Varney: two establishments men each promoting their own brand of tyranny

Ed Begley vs Fox's Varney: two establishments men each promoting their own brand of tyranny LA County Libertarian Examiner Environmental activist and actor Ed Begley Jr. took part in a raucious exchange with Fox news host Stuart Varney over global warming, with both men chattering over each other and Begley losing all composure. While many conservatives are using Begley's ridiculous behavior to illustrate the emotionalism and irrationality of leftist global warming proponants, it is important to not characterize Varney as some stalwart of truth and limited government. As usual, the establishment media strives to have people pick "sides' while keeping supposed dissidents ...

Republican Deficit Hypocrisy

The human capacity for self-delusion never ceases to amaze me, so it shouldn't surprise me that so many Republicans seem to genuinely believe that they are the party of fiscal responsibility. Perhaps at one time they were, but those days are long gone. This fact became blindingly obvious to me six years ago this month when a Republican president and a Republican Congress enacted the Medicare drug benefit, which former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker has called "the most fiscally irresponsible piece of legislation since the 1960s." Recall the situation in 2003. The Bush administration was already projecting the largest deficit in American history--$475 billion in fiscal ...

Sodom in the Nation's Capital Star Parker Monday, November 23, 2009 At a time when our country is sick, it shouldn't surprise that one our sickest places is our nation's capital. The poverty rate of Washington, DC, almost 20 percent, is one of the highest in the nation. Its child poverty rate is the nation's highest.. DC's public school system, with a graduation rate of less than 50 percent, is one of the worst in the country. According to DC's HIV/AIDS office, three percent of the local population has HIV or AIDS. The Administrator of this office notes that this HIV/AIDS incidence is "...higher than West Africa...on par with Uganda and some parts of ...

The Tijuana of the Caspian Article Tools sponsored by: email E-mail Article print Printer Format Image credit: Aslon Arfa At 8:45 a.m., the Azerbaijani cabbies were clustered in the courtyard next to the customs terminal, waiting for the Iranians to walk through a narrow, rusted door. They do this every morning in the town of Astara, which dates back 6,000 years and today sits on the border between the post-Soviet Republic of Azerbaijan and the Islamic Republic of Iran. It can be hard for the uninitiated to distinguish Azerbaijani Azeris from Iranian Azeris, but the drivers know their clientele. “The Iranian girls are fairer, and they always have their heads down and their head ...

Has Diversity “Jumped the Shark”? by James Buchanan In her latest column Ann Coulter observed “Gen. George Casey, responded to a massacre of 13 Americans in which the suspect is a Muslim by saying: ‘Our diversity … is a strength.’ As long as the general has brought it up: Never in recorded history has diversity been anything but a problem.” Coulter entitles her article “Diversity has jumped the shark, horrifically”. The expression “jumping the shark” means that something has gone too far or gone on too long, referring specifically to an episode of “Happy Days” that let everyone know the writers had run out of ideas. ...
The Day the Dollar Died

The following story in italics is a potential fictional time line for the day the dollar died. I hope not to instill fear or loathing but to give everyone some perspective on a POSSIBLE outcome which does not really take much of a reach to come to any conclusion. Despite popular belief and promises from those who wish to rob you of your savings and investments, the collapse of the dollar might just be an event measured in hours, not days as their control is not what it seems….. Mike was less than an hour from home in Minnesota after dropping his load off in Fargo but knew he needed to top his tank off this Sunday evening to insure his rig would make it home. He pulled into the Petro ...

Netanyahu 'speaks like a conqueror' By Clovis Maksoud Binyamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, addresses the UN General Assembly holding what he said were Nazi plans for the Auschwitz concentration camp [GALLO/GETTY] The first speech by Barack Obama, the US president, to the UN General Assembly reflects his profound awareness of the problems and deep anxieties felt by many around the world. It is with such expressions of genuine empathy that the US president promised to empower the UN and, more importantly, uphold international law as the incubator of solutions which blend peace with justice. But how Obama will apply this re-energised US commitment to the declared ...

Poverty and graft 'fuel Afghan war' The report comes as Western governments urge Karzai to do more to fight corruption [Reuters] Corruption and poverty are fuelling the war in Afghanistan, a survey by British charity Oxfam and local organisations released a day before Hamid Karzai's inauguration for a second presidential term has said. In the survey of 704 randomly selected Afghan men and women, which was released on Wednesday, 70 per cent said that unemployment and poverty were the leading reasons why Afghanistan remains so unstable. Forty-eight per cent of those interviewed said that corruption and ineffectiveness of the Afghan government was a major cause. "The ...

The cost of our political classes’ obsession with multiculturalism and Political Correctness is not just sanctimonious news conferences and racial special interest groups. It’s death and injury as residents were reminded last week. We were reintroduced to Anastacio Miranda, an illegal alien in PWC doing work Americans didn’t want to do. Unfortunately, while making his vital contribution to the economy, Miranda found time in his off-hours to murder three people and shoot two others after a toddler’s birthday party. Later we learned Maj. L. Eduardo Caraveo, a Woodbridge resident, was a victim of Fort Hood Muslim murderer Nidal Hasan. Naturally, the first item on the ...

Ft. Hood: Just the beginning
Post Date: 2009-11-16 21:33:23 by christine

For those who can still put two and two together, the Ft. Hood killings look like the beginning of a long term bloodletting in our country, an unnecessary travail we will be forced to suffer unless we reverse US foreign policy blunders. That no end is now in sight is made clear with the contorted spin placed on the Ft. Hood murders by the administration and both liberal and neo-conservative policy makers. On the one hand, Hasan is explained away as disturbed individual, a loner having professional problems acting out of personal distress. End of story. On the other, he is an 'Islamo-fascist' who, like all extremist Muslims, "attack us for who we are". Both explanations ...
Handouts (Interesting POV)

One of the debates among liberty seekers is about the extent to which it's morally right to accept or reject government handouts. In my opinion, it's one of a rather small number of issues still open to valid debate, and for sure there are good, sincere people on both sides of it and I respect all of them. Although these remarks come down clearly on one side, that respect remains very much intact, for over some years my own mind has changed quite a lot. I've no wish to try to hurry anyone to change his without careful thought. On the other hand, if anyone reading this is still wondering about the question, perhaps it will help him decide. Perhaps it will even stimulate other ...

Castro as commentator on US politics AP * Buzz up!66 votes By PAUL HAVEN, Associated Press Writer Paul Haven, Associated Press Writer – Fri Nov 13, 3:47 am ET HAVANA – Think you're obsessed with President Barack Obama and the many challenges he faces at home and abroad? Well, you're not alone. Fidel Castro appears to have a fascination with the American leader that would make Obama Girl jealous, writing obsessively not only about his politics, but of his youth and vigor. And unlike with past American heads-of-state — he slammed President George W. Bush as a genocidal drunk — Castro seems to genuinely like the fresh face in Washington. Since handing over ...
