Where are the FEMA Camps when you need them?

Whether one is a conspiratorial researcher who views government as our biggest threat as the founders taught, or a 'statist' type who believes whatever the hero government tells them, the fact is that government FEMA CAMPS are an acknowledged and documented fact. There have been military documents, congressional budget reports, and corporate press releases which affirm that FEMA camps have existed for many years and are continuing to be built nationwide, sometimes even openly referred to as 're-education' centers and 'civilian inmate work camps'. In 2006, MarketWatch reported that KBR, a subsidiary of Halliburton, was awarded Homeland Security contract worth up to ...

A letter from Athens Barnaby Phillips Barnaby Phillips has 20 years of experience in television and radio journalism. November 3, 2012 - 20:01 A coast guard officer takes part in an anti-austerity protest with members of the police in Athens [Reuters] On a narrow street in the run-down Athens neighbourhood of Aghios Panteleimonas, a crowd gathers outside a barber's shop. They are nervous, and talk in whispers. The shop is closed, and the lights are off, but I'm able to peer inside, and see a shocking sight. Blood is smeared across the floor, and has collected in a large pool in the middle. I'm told that a black man stabbed the owner the previous evening, and made off with a ...

Many polling stations will have no power and therefore no means of conducting their duties on Election Day. The deadline for processing mail in ballots has been extended until Friday, however many will still have no means of ...

By Jason Charles | Truth Alliance | Nov. 2, 2012 Are we witnessing a neocon take over of the Presidency…once again? Or, maybe they never really gave Barry any power at all, only time.

Five quick points that don’t add up and could equate to a surprise inside attack on the Obama campaign, as more info breaks daily about this tragedy.

Hurricane Exposes Economic Fallacies

Throughout the next few days in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy you will repeatedly hear two great untruths: We need government to protect us from natural disasters. Natural disasters are good for the economy. Regarding the first fallacy, let us consider today's New York Times op-ed commentary, which is predictably fawning about centralized political power. “Most Americans have never heard of the National Response Coordination Center, but they’re lucky it exists on days of lethal winds and flood tides. The center is the war room of the Federal Emergency Management Agency [FEMA], where officials gather to decide where rescuers should go, where drinking water should be ...

Institutionalized State Assassinations and the November 6 Election By Bill Van Auken October 27, 2012 "WSWS" -- With barely a week and a half to go until the November 6 presidential elections, the entire spectrum of the American pseudo-left is exerting maximum efforts to turn out votes for Obama with the claim that the reelection of the incumbent Democrat would represent the “lesser of two evils.” If there was any need for a further refutation of this shabby political argument it has been provided in the form of the exposé run by the Washington Post this week on the Obama administration’s institutionalization of assassinations orchestrated from the White ...

He was born in Salt Lake City, and his family descends from some of the early Mormon pioneers. The opinions expressed below are his own. The founders of the United States had a lot of good ideas, but undoubtedly one of the best was the decoupling of religion from government. In principle, someone from any religion can be President of the United States. So even though all but one president has been a member of some flavor of Protestant Christianity, Mitt Romney’s ...

Why Romney’s Mormonism Matters by RENATO WARDLE It came as no surprise that Mitt Romney secured the GOP nomination for the 2012 elections. The current Republican Party is dominated by right-wing extremists hell-bent on galvanizing the United States into a militant Christian hegemony. Because of this fanatical atmosphere, it is completely natural that a Mormon would not only be running for president, but would also win the GOP nomination. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (aka the Mormons), with its history of religious severity, appears to be a perfect fit for the über-orthodoxy of the Tea Party-controlled GOP. Despite misgivings that many non-Mormon Republicans ...

A Culture Of Delusion by PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS A writer’s greatest disappointments are readers who have knee-jerk responses. Not all readers, of course. Some readers are thoughtful and supportive. Others express thanks for opening their eyes. But the majority are happy when a writer tells them what they want to hear and are unhappy when he writes what they don’t want to hear. For the left-wing, Ronald Reagan is the great bogyman. Those on the left don’t understand supply-side economics as a macroeconomic innovation that cured stagflation by utilizing the impact of fiscal policy on aggregate supply. Instead, they see “trickle-down economics” and tax cuts for the rich. ...
The Fairness of Whites as a Critical Weakness

Here is the essence of what I feel is the primary weakness that has somehow been implanted within the genetic makeup of White European people. This foolish idea that seems to exist within the vast majority of our people’s minds – our Aryan sense of fairness, and the clearly stupid idea that Whites can expect to receive fairness and be treated honorably by non-Whites, if only we can manage to explain to them how they are being unfair to us. Our enemies, primarily the Jews, but in the long run – all non-white races who constitute our racial competition – have very cleverly sensed this weakness in our people and they have done everything possible to pour fertilizer on it, ...

More Americans delaying retirement until age 80 Fri Oct 26, 2012 2:53PM GMT As they struggle to save for retirement, a growing number of middle-class Americans plan to postpone their golden years until they are in their 80's. Nearly one-third, or 30%, now plan to work until they are 80 or older -- up from 25% a year ago, according to a Wells Fargo survey of 1,000 adults with income less than $100,000. "It is so tough for Americans to save for retirement that the answer seems to be to work longer," said Joe Ready, director of Wells Fargo Institutional Retirement and Trust. Overall, 70% of respondents plan to work during retirement, many of whom plan to do so because ...
