A Bear Stearns Market

Panic is old hat on Wall Street. Rarely before, however, has there been a crisis so comprehensive as this one. It first materialized last summer in the shape of a disturbance in the low-rated, or subprime, mortgage market. "Contained," the regulatory establishment hopefully pronounced. But it has blazed across markets and time zones, with central bankers, politicians and Treasury functionaries in hot and, to date, futile pursuit. What makes these proceedings so frightening is that not only is credit in crisis but so, too, is money. There are well-founded doubts about the promises to pay money and about the nature and integrity of the dollar itself. So it was on Friday that the ...

George Bush will play all he’s got The resignation of Admiral Fallon will provoke renewed fighting in Iraq by Thierry Meyssan* voltairenet.orgContrary to what has been written so far in the mainstream media, Admiral William Fallon was not removed because he was opposing President Bush on an attack against Iran. He resigned from his own initiative after the agreement he had negotiated and concluded with Tehran, Moscow and Peking was sabotaged by the White House. This decision by the Bush administration will provoke renewed fighting in Iraq and exposes gravely the GI's to a new Resistance this time supported without restraints from the outside. It was nearly 22h GMT, on Tuesday ...
Spend rebate on beer

President Bush said we can get up to a $1,200 tax rebate. Now, if we spend that money at Wal-Mart, all the money will go to China. If we spend it on computers, most of the money will go to Korea or India. If we spend it on gasoline it will all go to the Middle East. None of these scenarios will help the American economy. We need to keep that money here in America, so the only way to keep that money here at home is to drink beer, gamble or spend it on prostitution. Currently it seems that these are the only businesses still left in the United States.

Sunday, March 16 Breakdancing Drunks on the Edge of a Cliff. Looking behind the news… or deeper into the news, as you prefer, it starts to look like a video of extreme skateboarders and off road bikers on cheap wine and PCP. Sometimes it looks like an army of crazed suits, chasing gold dust in a windstorm across the desert of the Sierra Madre. In the meantime, entire nations are displaced or forced behind high walls and razor wire and used for target practice. At the same time we are treated to endless details of the vainest and emptiest lives anyone can imagine. When you really look at it, really look at it, it is madness at all levels. It is mad to engage in it. It is madness to ...

The McCain people are terrified lest Crazy John’s religious nut preachers’ jabberings make serious trouble for him. In a typical alliance, the Clinton people have given the McCain people some tapes of a very emotional Chicago black minister, attacking the white establishment for years of harassment of the black community. The McCain people, in turn, using Karl Rove’s hate networks, are planning a Swift Boat type of attack on Obama to deflect public attention from McCain’s vicious friends in the ...

Spitzer taken down by Mossad?By Jerry MazzaOnline Journal Associate Editor Mar 14, 2008, 00:36 Eliot Spitzer took on Wall Street like no other attorney general before him. As the Washington Post reported in 2004, “His targets in the past have included everyone from big Wall Street investment banks and the $7.5 trillion mutual fund industry to polluting power plants and supermarket chains that underpaid delivery workers.” Additionally, Wayne Madsen reports [subscription required] that “Defense sources have confirmed our March 11, 2008, report that Emperors Club VIP, the prostitution firm that entangled New York’s outgoing Governor Eliot Spitzer in a call girl ring, ...
Sun-powered drying

Saving energy can be as simple as not opening the dryer door. Just hang those freshly laundered clothes on the green-as-green-can-be contraption known as a clothesline. Time and (if the device is outdoors) Ol' Sol will drip-dry them just fine, without electricity or natural gas. But not, alas, in many of America's subdivisions. As a Chapel Hill woman frustratingly found out, many neighborhood covenants -- deed restrictions governing what homeowners may and may not do -- prohibit outdoor clothes drying. Not attractive, apparently. And back when few people worried about energy consumption, why bother? That didn't seem right to Deborah Fulghieri, a fan of fresh-air drying who ...

If your slow simmer turns to a rolling boil every time you hear of another illegal who’s raped an 8 year old, run over a cop or driven his car into a nursing home while under the influence, chances are you won’t cool down after the November presidential election. The so-called ‘front-runners’ from the “Big Box” parties are just hankering for more amnesty which means more illegals and more of the invasion that is destroying our country. Take McCain (please). He’s trying to do damage control on his pro-amnesty track record by reworking the rhetoric while playing both sides against the middle. Conservatives who’ve been paying attention will remember ...

2001-11-08 17:15:50 Alan Dershowitz spoke to a packed crowd at the Jewish Community Center in Creve Coeur, St. Louis, on Sunday, as the opening speaker for the Jewish Book Fair. The celebrity lawyer and once-famous civil libertarian said that he supports not only identification papers but also court-ordered torture. “Civil rights activists need to re-adjust their thinking due to recent terrorist attacks,” said Dershowitz. Dershowitz says that his new support for police-state measures is “not totally out of line with” his past policies, but rather are a natural outgrowth of them. According to the civil libertarian, fourth amendment and fifth amendment freedoms cannot be ...
Destroying American Culture: Multiculturalism

Less than 30 years ago, most everything in America enjoyed the moniker "All American." Sports heroes became "All Americans." When you bought a product, it read, "Made in America." Everyone spoke English and raised their hands to their hearts while saying, "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God with liberty and justice for all." Our leaders, with their open-borders approach to life, dismantles the fabric of a successful nation. Which is it – free market economy, or forced Multiculturalism? “Many liberals hear talk of national culture and shout ...

Spitzer's Troubles May Hurt Clinton

For a supporter, New York Gov. Eliot L. Spitzer (D) sure hasn't done Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) any favors lately. After all, it was Spitzer who, in the view of her advisers, caused the slide that put her where she is today, fighting from behind for the Democratic presidential nomination. A question about his proposal to let illegal immigrants get driver's licenses tripped her up in a debate in late October and ended 10 months of unquestioned dominance in the race for the nomination. Now, his apparent involvement with a prostitution ring has not only distracted attention from her efforts to take down the front-runner, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), it has also brought back ...

Are We Closer to War?By Dan FroomkinSpecial to washingtonpost.comWednesday, March 12, 2008; 11:51 AMThe abrupt resignation yesterday of the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, Admiral William J. "Fox" Fallon, has sparked a new round of speculation that President Bush and Vice President Cheney have some sort of plan in the works to attack Iran before their time is up.Fallon's resignation -- or firing -- was apparently precipitated in part by a recent Esquire profile that depicted him as brazenly pushing back against the White House hawks eager to launch another war.Now it turns out that what Thomas P.M. Barnett, a former Naval War College professor, wrote in that profile was ...

"The commonest error in politics," said Lord Salisbury, "is sticking to the carcass of dead policies." Lord Salisbury's rule comes to mind on reading of John McCain's delight at the $40 billion contract awarded the French-led parent of Airbus — to build the next generation of U.S. Air Force tankers. The contract could run to $100 billion and is a body blow to Boeing in its duel to the death with Airbus. Two-thirds of all air-to-air refueling tankers are used by the United States. The contract gives a 30-year lease on life to the expiring Airbus A330 and means early death for Boeing's 767, the U.S. model for the tanker. Congratulating himself for ...

An admiral takes on the White House By Gareth Porter WASHINGTON - A new article on CENTCOM commander Admiral William Fallon confirms that his public statements last autumn ruling out war against Iran were not coordinated with the White House and landed him in trouble more than once with President George W Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. In an admiring article on Fallon in Esquire, former Pentagon official Thomas P M Barnett writes that Fallon angered the White House by "brazenly challenging" Bush on his aggressive threat of war against Tehran. Barnett also cites "well-placed observers" as saying Bush may soon replace Fallon with a "more pliable" ...

Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia read the funnies over the radio to cheer up New Yorkers during a newspaper strike. President Franklin Roosevelt gave “fireside chats” to bolster Americans during the depression. President Bush used his radio address on Saturday to try to scare Americans into believing they have to sacrifice their rights and their values to combat terrorism. Mr. Bush announced that he had vetoed the 2008 intelligence budget because it contains a clause barring the C.I.A. from torturing prisoners. Mr. Bush told the nation that it “would take away one of the most valuable tools in the war on terror — the C.I.A. program to detain and question key terrorist leaders ...

Some women were playing golf. One teed off and watched in horror as her ball headed directly toward a foursome of men playing the next hole. The ball hit one of the men. He immediately clasped his hands together at his groin, fell to the ground and proceeded to roll around in agony. The woman rushed down to the man, and immediately began to apologize. 'Please allow me to help. I'm a Physical Therapist and I know I could relieve your pain if you'd allow me,' she told him. 'Oh, no, I'll be all right. I'll be fine in a few minutes,' the man replied. He was in obvious agony, lying in the fetal position, still clasping his hands together at his groin. At ...

Michael J. Polignano is a writer living in California. Mike's writings focus primarily on the science and politics of race. Currently, he is writing a book on the political suppression of scientific knowledge about race in America today. THERE HAS BEEN a lot of discussion in White Nationalist circles about how to respond to being called a "racist." Does one admit the charge? Deny it? Admit it with qualifications? When our enemies get to define the term to suit their needs, none of the options are very appealing. "Racist" is an indictment, trial, conviction, and sentence-all in one word. Edgar Steele's Defensive Racism deserve praise for offering a new and more ...

Bush and Uribe v. Chavez and Correa - by Stephen Lendman Call it another salvo in Bush v. Chavez with Ecuador's Raphael Correa as a secondary target and Colombia's Alvaro Uribe as a proxy aggressor. The Ecuadorean incursion was no ordinary cross-border raid. It was a made in Washington affair that escalates a nine year attempt to remove the Venezuelan leader and return oligarchs in the country to power. It also threatens two regional leaders who know what they're up against in Uribe and Washington, "friendly" handshakes in the Dominican Republic notwithstanding. The situation is far from settled, and here's how events unfolded so far: -- on March 1, the Colombian ...

Better buckle up! -- CheneyBush's final 10 monthsBy Bernard WeinerOnline Journal Guest Writer Mar 7, 2008, 00:26 If anyone still harbors any illusions that the lame-duck CheneyBush administration will taxi relatively harmlessly to its departure gate in January 2009, recent events suggest otherwise. It's been made abundantly clear that in the next 10 months, these guys are going to behave even more brutishly in amassing and misusing their power, and in screwing things up, than they've already done in the past seven-plus years. In essence, the message emanating from the White House to the country can be summed up this way: "You want us? You come and get us. Otherwise, ...

25 fascinating facts about personal debt By Paul Bannister • Bankrate.com Debt. It's been a problem for almost everyone at some time, from the ancient Greeks to modern movie stars. Throughout history if you didn't have the drachma, you literally could be enslaved by your debt, and you'd become the property of your creditor. About 200 years after the first Olympic Games, ancient Greek lawmaker and statesman, Solon, changed that for his countrymen, outlawing debt bondage and canceling all outstanding debt at that time -- a highly popular move for those with rash spending habits, even before credit cards. Today, many Greeks are wondering if the old sage will bail them out ...

The occult ritual is called the Cremation of Care and culminates in a mock human sacrifice being offered to Moloch. As bizarre as it sounds high level men in American government and business go to the Bohemian Grove on a yearly basis and take part in this ritual. George HW Bush, Jimmy Carter, ...
