First up, reckoner Bruno furnishes a thoughtful response to Dan Denning’s article on Liberty and Money... Whatever the central bankers, bankers and politicians are actually up to with the economy has probably little to do with conspiracy and a lot to do with incompetence. In order to conspire, say, to deprive the middle class from its wealth, or to create a worlwide single currency, the conspirators would need to be motivated by some ideology, or by faith. It is a requirement for any conspiracy. Yet, nowadays, our rulers are blind with greed, not with faith, they are led by their most basic instincts, and they are unable to think clearly, even less to conspire. People like Jamie ...

America's Pusillanimous Press By Jim Hightower September 27, 2012 "Information Clearing House" - Let us now access the state of the free press in this land of ... well, of press freedom. The assessment? Pathetic. Not because of any government clampdown, but because of increasing press pusillanimity. In recent years, newspaper reporting had already been severely weakened by drastic cutbacks in newsrooms (including the near-abandonment of hard-nosed investigative reporting by conglomerate CEOs and bean-counters more interested in upping the corporate stock price than in providing journalistic exposes). But the latest decline comes from newsroom managers and staff who've ...

A Culture of Delusion By Paul Craig Roberts September 28, 2012 "Information Clearing House" - 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 bogeyman. 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 ...

Obama against the world Obama's people are focused on the election, but the question is: Will he make it to November 7 and a second term? The liberal hit on Obama has been that "the man won't fight for what he believes in" [EPA] Since this is my version of an election piece, I plan to get the usual stuff out of the way fast. So yes, the smartest political odds-givers around believe President Obama has a distinct edge over Mitt Romney coming out of the conventions, the Senate is trending Democratic, and who knows about the House. In fact, it almost seems as if the Republicans put forward the only man in America incapable of defeating an economically wounded and deeply ...

US calls Assange 'enemy of state' Source: The Sydney Morning Herald THE US military has designated Julian Assange and WikiLeaks as enemies of the United States - the same legal category as the al-Qaeda terrorist network and the Taliban insurgency. Declassified US Air Force counter-intelligence documents, released under US freedom-of-information laws, reveal that military personnel who contact WikiLeaks or WikiLeaks supporters may be at risk of being charged with "communicating with the enemy", a military crime that carries a maximum sentence of death. The documents, some originally classified "Secret/NoForn" — not releasable to non-US nationals — ...

Russia Bans Monsanto's GMO Corn It cites new study raising fears of cancer By John Johnson, Newser Staff Posted Sep 26, 2012 11:46 AM CDT STORY COMMENTS (34) (Newser) – Russia won't be importing any genetically modified US corn from Monsanto for a while, after a new study suggested it raised the risk of cancer, reports the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Monsanto is calling the French study bogus and said the safety of its NK603 corn is "well established." Russia's consumer watchdog agency, Rospotrebnadzor, acted after researchers at the University of Caen said rats that ate the corn were more likely to get cancer and die prematurely. The watchdog agency asked ...

New York Times a “Propaganda Megaphone” for War, Says Former Reporter By Alex Newman This article was originally posted at The New American- The New York Times has essentially become a “propaganda megaphone” to peddle the establishment’s narrative — especially when it comes to war — charged foreign correspondent Daniel Simpson, who resigned from the paper in disgust. According to Simpson, the paper, which is often lambasted and ridiculed by conservatives and libertarians for its blatant “liberal” bias, is actually just a propaganda tool for the ruling establishment. In an explosive interview with the Kremlin-funded RT media broadcaster, the ...

Why Putin Wants Obama to Win 26 September 2012 By Andrei Tsygankov The 2012 U.S. presidential election presents a contrast to the 2008 election in terms of their perceptions by the Russian elite. In 2008, then-President Dmitry Medvedev expressed a desire to work with a "modern" U.S. leader rather than one "whose eyes are turned back to the past." He was referring to Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. But influential Russian elites voiced their support for the Republican candidate, John McCain, despite McCain calling President Vladimir Putin a KGB spy who has no soul and calling to expel Russia from the Group of Eight leading industrial nations.

On Monday's show, analyst of geopolitics and foreign policy, Craig B. Hulet talked about how corporate interests now dominate over governments, and the fallout we're seeing from this around the world. He characterized the US as a surveillance state, and bemoaned the loss of personal liberties; yet the public, suffering from the recession, has not made much of an outcry, he observed. Regarding military conflicts, America will go to war "over and over again, for only one purpose, and that is the self-interest of the wealthy, and most powerful corporations," he commented. In the years to come, Hulet believes we'll see a violent reaction of citizens against the corporate ...

Maureen Dowd’s non-bombshell

Maureen Dowd recently wrote a column dripping with what is routinely labeled “anti-Semitism” by the ADL and other guardians of political correctness (“Neocons Slither Back“). Most commentators (see here) focused on her claim that Dan Senor is Mitt Romney’s guru on all things related to Israel. Jeffrey Goldberg weighs in: Maureen may not know this, but she is peddling an old stereotype, that gentile leaders are dolts unable to resist the machinations and manipulations of clever and snake-like Jews. (Later, Hounshell wrote, “(A)mazing that apparently nobody sat her down and said, this is not OK.”) This sinister stereotype became a major theme in the ...

What Mitt Romney Really Represents By Robert B. Reich September 22, 2012 "Information Clearing House" - It’s not just his giant income or the low tax rates he pays on it. And it’s not just the videotape of him berating almost half of America, or his endless gaffes, or his regressive budget policies. It’s something that unites all of this, and connects it to the biggest underlying problem America faces — the unprecedented concentration of wealth and power at the very top that’s undermining our economy and destroying our democracy. Romney just released his 2011 tax returns, showing he paid $1.9 million in taxes on more than $13 million of income last ...
