We are running out of options.

Barring a coup by the military, I would place no hope in Americans for doing anything.

Cheer up, the end is near. Even the scum of the earth admit it.

Alan Greenspan: 6:37 - "All of history suggests that inflation will take hold with very deleterious effects on economic activity."


Uncle Sam – Master Mortgage Pusher
"The financial system is coming apart at the seams. When historians set the starting date of the first depression of this century, it will be very close to now."

UK economist sees threat of 1930s style depression

The Federal Reserve's rescue has failed
"I never thought I would see anything like this in my life," said James Steele, an HSBC economist in New York. No sane mortal needs to know what term- auction means, except that it too became a tool of the US credit alchemists. Banks briefly used the market as laboratory for conjuring long-term loans at Alan Greenspan's giveaway short-term rates. It has come unstuck. Next in line is the $45 trillion derivatives market for credit default swaps (CDS)."

"The true measure of a career is to be able to be content, even proud, that you succeeded through your own endeavors without leaving a trail of casualties in your wake."
Alan Greenspan

Neither do I, but I'm looking at reality.

So do I, but it's too late, for hundreds of reasons.

Not could be, will be.

white America will not elect a black man.

You must be a shut-in.

1st, America ain't as white as it used to be. 2nd, the existing whites are too stupid to recognize the genocide looming on the horizon. Yes, a black could get elected, but so what if he doesn't ... who does then ??? A warmongering, Jew boot-licking, nutcase or a slimy war mongering, Jew boot-licking bitch from the pit of hell.

Many times I've chided Republican/conservatives for being beaten like a red headed step-child, but they have found competition in the Ron Paul camp that has repeatedly been bitch slapped, cheated, laughed at, chewed up and shit out. (I'm in that camp so I'm not laughing).

The time for revolution is here.

And the men who loan money to governments, so called, for the purpose of enabling the latter to rob, enslave, and murder their people, are among the greatest villains that the world has ever seen. And they as much deserve to be hunted and killed (if they cannot otherwise be got rid of) as any slave traders, robbers, or pirates that ever lived. ... Lysander Spooner

You mean the guy who's approval rating was between 25-30% the last time we checked? That guy?

Bush might as well endorse all three of them--McCain, Hillary and Obama. Any of them would carry out the policies of their masters, just like he has, stooge that he is.

Ninety five per cent of pubs in Ohio and Texas repudiated Paul and his call to bring the troops home. They voted for more war and they shall have more war.

" They voted for more war.............

Its not who votes, but who counts ...........all choices but paul were CFR, we will

get more war as long as they can profit. But I think we made too much noise, the

war will fade and backroom deals will now center on healthcare.

I would have thought that Paul would have gotten more votes than he did in Texas. It shouldn't be possible to completely ignore him in his own state.

Or, we're all the fringe minority, and people are happy with more war, and the perceived prestige on the world stage (at least for propaganda and internal consumption) it brings. A coworker of mine sent an edititorial to me that emphasized just that, and that we needed to take the fight to our enemies (unnamed, except for referencing Islamofascists, a vacuous and empty term) and that the best defense is a good offense. That's an idea that I haven't been able to understand, because in war, it's been proved over and over that the best defense is a good defense. The Soviets found that out (they, like us, prior to 1941 had emphasized the offense) when the Germans invaded, and they rediscovered defensive tactics the hard way. WWI showed that the defense at that time was the stronger, even in Iraq and Afghanistan, the defense is winning out (I define IED usage as a defensive tactic, but it's difficult to define IED and suicide bombings tactically.)

I think that perhaps we've become a militaristic society, that glorifies warfare and the martial ethos. It's said, really, since we traditionally (or at least what I've read) rejected such notions, and left militarism to the Germans and Prussians. Think of all the "we only liberate, we don't conquer" pap that we're taught throughout childhood, the indispensible nation hogwash, and the glorification of the "good" that we're doing in Iraq and around the world. I don't think anyone would like the military running their town, but it should be just peachy for them foreigners, since they didn't know better to start with, isn't that the idea expounded? I'm always stuck with Bastiat's "broken window" fallacy, and think about the wasted lives and destruction of property. Before the broken window the economy as a whole had the window and the resources for a new one, now there's just a new window. Unfortunately, when we're done, there isn't even the new window.

Indeed we are.

The day a new draft is instituted, we will know there is no turning back.

The voters of both parties have voted overwhelmingly for more government and more war. In Texas and Ohio, the only non war candidate received 5 per cent of the vote. The statistics do not lie.

Most of them are voting for Democrats, which is especially stupid if they back Hillary. I know a lot of anti-war Democrats who against all facts think that Hillary is on their side. Just like a lot of Republicans who say they want to see something done about illegal immigration still support Bush and McCain.
