OBAMA NEEDS TO GET HIS HEAD OUT OF HIS BUTT AND SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING IN AMERICA LATELY.

from cattastrophy on 07/17/2015 11:57 PM

                                   Obama_-_image003.jpg

Yesterday July 16, 2015 Mohamad Abdulazeez stood outside a Military recruiting office and killed FOUR UNARMED U.S. MARINES even though ISIS has threatened other military bases. Later, yesterday, this @#$%^&* went after ANOTHER member of the military and A POLICE OFFICER who by the grace of God survived gunshots.

What got me was the phrase "heartbreaking circumstance in which the murdered Marines found themselves" that the President of the United States made in a press conference in the Oval Office. "HEARTBREAKING CIRCUMSTANCES" like these guys had a chance to defend themselves.

Now if the Obamaites can get their head out of their butts they will see how Berry has been ignoring Islam-inspired hate crimes against our troops since the 2009 Fort Hood massacre or the Oklahome beheadings as being politically correct in calling it "workplace violence."

Here's what I don't understand. These so called Washington warriors will bend over backward and move heaven and hell to please the Muslims, the Gays, the civil rights absolutists, U.S. Soldiers are literally being killed U.S. soil at the hands of those that praise Allah. However our "Commander In Chief can't even bother to give a live press conference yesterday about what happened in Tennessee.

HOWEVER, Obama gave another boring statement about our disarmed troops.

"Heartbreaking circumstance"? What is heartbreaking is the way Obama is running this country into the ground. What is heartbreaking how Obama is mocking the Constitution of the United States. What ois heartbreaking is the way Obama treats our troops here and abroad.

I can't help but wonder if Obama has forgotten when Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad walked into an Arkansas Army recruiting center, murdered Pvt. William Long and wounded Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula in June of 2009 (portions of this sentence courtesy of GOPUSA). With his reputation of being a Muslim and a supporter of the Koran I cannot help but wonder where his thoughts were.

Here this moron Abdulazeez is educated here in the United States, goes to college at TSU, GO TIGERS, and has it good here in the U.S.A. but NOOO this moron has to go and be jihadist and act like a damned fool, well now a DEAD FOOL....all in the name of ALLAH. Or, what about the beheadings in Oklahoma, all in the name of ALLAH.

What the "radical" Muslims are doing to the Americans are all coming out of the pockets of the U.S. taxpayers, but OBAMA DOES NOT SEE THAT, but what many Americans DO see is that it is ALL IN THE NAME OF ALLAH. What just happened in Tennessee is just a small sample of the retaliation that is to come and all in the name of Allah. This is NOT going to be that last attack on American citizens, and on THAT you can go to the bank on. We think Fort Hood was bad, that other massacres that have occurred since Obama has been in office are bad, all this is just a tip of the iceburg. I am willing to bet that before the 2016 elections there is going to an Islamic terriorsm attack that will put 911 to shame.

Many times, Obama came up with a very weak excuse showing some kind of "sadness", for his photo op's, over what had just occurred and has described things as a "senseless act of violence" instead of ;what it is AN ACT OF ISLAMIC TERRORIST.

First, in 2008 during Bush's last days but still fresh in the minds of Americans came the bombing in Times Square, then in 2009 during Obama's watch, the Little Rock AK attack thing, I'm sure Billy Boy Clinton was happy about that one, next Washington D.C. in 2010 then sometime in between I seem to remember something happening in Baltimore where some convert to Islam tried to blow up an enlistment center using a remote controlled bomb that turned out to be a dud, NOW we have this in Chattanooga.

Again thanks to GOPUSA I discovered that in June of 2011, the feds charged Abu Khalid Abdul-Latif and Walli Mujahidh of planning to use a machine gun to kill officers and employees of the DoD who worked at the recruiting centers located in the Seattle, Wash., and to kill anyone helping them.

Then just two years ago another Muslim called Jonathan Melaku shot up Marine, Coast Guard recruiting centers, National Museum of the Marine Corps, and atried to destroy graves at Arlington National Cemetery where soldiers of Iraq and Afghanistan are sleeping forever.

Then just 3 months ago in April of this year, this moron Mohammed Abdullah Hasan was arrested after he plotted to kill American soldiers Fort Riley.

I am taking a quote from GOPUSA and posting it because I really think it hits the nail right on the head. "Can someone ask the commander in chief: Do U.S. military lives matter enough yet to do more than issue a canned, obligatory condolence to the families of those who serve? How many more lives must be lost before he is as roused about our troops under jihad siege as he is about Bill Cosby, the Confederate flag, "Game of Thrones" or Caitlyn Jenner?"

ISIS computer geeks have hacked over 100 Military personal targeting what only I can guess as their families. Now with the threat level being set at 5 by the DoD I look for many terrorist things to happen in New York, Florida, California, Kansas, Oklahoma anywhere where there is a military base EVEN OBAMAS'S BELOVED HAWAII.

I TRULY BELIEVE WE ARE AT WAR WITH ISIS AND THE JIHAD. What say you?

Look deep in the eyes of a man and you can tell what truth if any is in his heart - My Apache Grandfather...Gosheven

What is really scary is that Hillary Clinton is running for president and Hillary's senior thesis about about activist Saul Alinsky.  If you thought Obama was good at socialism Hillary will be Obamas thrid term.  Why anyone would want to vote for her and have her finish destroying our Republic I will never understand.

Mychal Massie The Daily Rant : Rules for Patriots by Roseann Salanitri

from Doofiegirl on 07/15/2015 03:24 PM

American patriots will frequently lament the loss of liberties that once distinguished this country from oppressive governments throughout history. Some blame the political system, while others blame the education system or the media. Certainly there is enough blame to go around. However, the root of our demise may lie in the melding of several destructive sociologies promoted by Cloward & Piven, Saul Alinsky in his Rules for Radicals, and the 45 Goals of the Communist Party. These strategies preyed upon the irrational discontent of a rebellious generation, which are now occupying our halls of academia and government. While some of their disciples, i.e. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, coin terms like the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy" or the "Great White Conspiracy", these fantasy conspiracies hide the actual conspiracies that they have devoted their lives to promoting – conspiracies intent upon the building of their power bases through the destruction of America.

 

Although some have a rudimentary knowledge of these strategies, none seem to understand how to combat them. Before attempting to devise a counter-offensive, we would do well to understand their basic principles and what made them so successful. After that we can begin to create rules of our own to dethrone their demagogues and hopefully reverse the damage they have done. Then and only then can we begin to transform our defensive game into an offensive one.

First – understand that this is about power. For Alinsky's followers, creating a power base is a means to an end. While he paints this picture in altruistic terms, his deceptive strategies reveal the true evil nature of his intentions. It is exemplified by his hero and the person he dedicated his book to: none other than the master deceiver, the father of lies, the accuser of the brethren, and first rebel: Lucifer. For those who think logically, it follows that corrupt and deceptive means cannot produce a noble end. In this regard, Alinsky's tactics are similar to that of Islam's – both sanction lies and deceit to achieve their end goal. While Alinsky preaches that the end of capitalism represents freedom, history has shown that varying forms of Marxism/Communism/Taoism/Socialism/Nazism in the last century have led to the deaths of 100,000,000 people – all in the name of ushering in Utopia.

Additionally, the Cloward and Piven model has successfully overwhelmed our economic system to the point of collapse with welfare recipients, and all of the 45 Goals of the Communist Party have been met that called for the corruption our morals through our educational system, instituting free trade agreements, empowering and infiltrating the UN, and creating a one party system that masquerades as a two party system, etc. The combination of all of these destructive models working in harmony has produced a plethora of crisis that methodically ridicule their opponents with charges of racism or worse – just ask Donald Trump or Sarah Palin how difficult it can be to defend against such strategies. As for their affect on the American Patriot Movement, so much has gone wrong in such a short period of time that it is virtually impossible to maintain focus on any one crisis. However, focusing on the restoration of our Constitutional Republic is what we need to do if we are to remain a free and independent people.

All this would not have been possible if the vast majority of patriots today had the skills and knowledge to effectively articulate their point of view. Their inability to give a proper defense for their beliefs have allowed these Luciferian ideologies to permeate all corners of society. Alinsky's radicals and Cloward and Piven's disciples, therefore, have been able to instill a perverse meaning for oppression that persuades the Have-Not's that they are the victims of the Have's – and not the victims of their own inability to take advantage of the opportunities available to them in a capitalistic system.

For this venue, I will keep it as simple as possible and break down my proposed counter-offensive to two basic Rules and Challenges.

RULE #1: This Rule is based on a Biblical directive. It tells us that we are to be ready in season and out of season to give a reason for the hope that is within us. If we apply this principle to our current situation, it translates into being ready to properly explain why we believe socialism doesn't work and why we are committed to capitalism, which can only survive in a liberty-loving environment. Rule #1 leads to Challenge #1.

CHALLENGE #1: Educate yourself on the failed ideas of all the "isms" mentioned above that have resulted in tyrannical power grabs and genocide. While all were based on promises of ushering in heaven on earth, all delivered hell on earth. Historically they have proven to be nothing more than a well-disguised vehicle operated by malevolent tyrants for the purpose of enslaving rather than providing equality. As a consequence, millions upon millions of people were persecuted and exterminated. These crazed tyrants talked a good talk that inspired many but ultimately preyed on the millions who were naive enough to believe their well-crafted rhetoric. Again – educate yourself – educate yourself – educate yourself. You cannot help others understand the pitfalls of the isms if you don't understand them yourself. Again – take our cue from the Bible. We are to be ambassadors for Christ – the author of our liberty. And any good ambassador has a good understanding of whom and what is he or she is representing.

RULE #2: Network. Alinsky understood that there are two sources of power: money and people. The patriot movement may not have the money and consequently the media outlets that those in the Alinsky model have acquired, but it is wealthy with people.

CHALLENGE #2: After meeting challenge #1, we will be well equipped to launch persuasive arguments that support capitalism and liberty. Now we must launch. Preaching to the choir will not change the downward spiral generated by socialist professors, media moguls, and racist opportunists (such as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan). We must re-educate the masses who have been led to believe that the isms are good things. This may seem like a huge task but it can actually be done with a minimum of effort.

To meet this challenge, consider that we all have publications or blogs that we subscribe to, and social media links that are effective in communicating the truths of what we are facing. You don't have to re-invent the wheel but you do have to keep it rolling. This can be done in two ways: 1. by printing the best of the essays you read and distributing them wherever possible within your community or other places you tend to frequent, including but not limited to restrooms, bulletin boards, and restaurant entry ways; and 2. by distributing them electronically to all of your social media outlets and on your email lists with the request that those whom you are reaching do likewise. We may not have a media outlet that serves as the country's watchdog but the good news is that we can become our own media outlet with very little effort.

This approach may seem overly simple but its affects can be far reaching. Our Founding Fathers created a system of networking they called Christian Committees of Correspondence. Their system enabled them to communicate important information with each other without the benefit of of the advanced communication systems available to us today. Surely with the technology we have available to us now, any excuse for not being able to network is invalid.

If we apply these two simple Rules and meet these Challenges, we can begin the process of transforming America – this time for the glory of God and the preservation of liberty. These Rules and Challenges might not be a comprehensive plan but they can educate our citizens about the truth, which can lead to major changes in the way Americans think – and hence in the way they vote. I believe it's high time we mobilize as best we can and turn this nation around. Under unimaginable odds, our Founding Fathers did not submit to the slavery of tyrants. Their commitment to liberty birthed this nation. Will our commitment preserve it? We must rise to the challenges of our day and overcome the power of would-be tyrants with common sense and committed efforts. To do less, is to do something – chose what is right and do not be deceived by the servants of the great deceiver.

Stu writes for freedom : Support The First Amendment Defense Act (H. R. 2802) - Sent to Rep. Peter Welch

from Doofiegirl on 07/15/2015 03:14 PM

Dear Representative Welch,

 

Responding to the Supreme Court ruling last month legalizing same-sex
marriage, Rep. Raul Labrador (R-ID) has introduced the First Amendment
Defense Act (FADA, H. R. 2802). This bill is a religious-freedom bill
banning the federal government from punishing churches, charities, and
private schools for actions in opposition to same-sex marriage. For
example, under FADA the government could not legally revoke the tax
exempt status of churches that refuse to perform same-sex weddings
because of their religious beliefs, nor could it could not deny federal
grants or contracts to individuals or institutions (such as food banks
or adoption agencies) that don't believe in same-sex marriage. And it
will protect Christian radio and television stations that are licensed
by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to use the public
airwaves (already there are people urging the FCC to revoke these
licenses). Finally, it would put an end to the flagrant violation of
business owner rights by barring lawsuits and criminal charges against
individuals that refuse to endorse homosexual marriage via their work
product (e.g., wedding photographers, custom cake makers, floral
arrangers, etc.).

Many Republicans "say" they hope to pass FADA before they head home and
face constituents at August town halls, but they need to be prodded to
actually get moving. House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who
controls the House floor schedule, has given no indication he'll
schedule a vote in the remaining three weeks before the House leaves
town for the long August recess. This leads me to believe that
rank-and-file Republicans are lying about their commitment to passing FADA.

The recent Supreme Court decision mandating State recognition of
homosexual "marriage" (Obergefell v. Hodges) is a violation of
federalism. Nowhere in Article 1, Section 8 does the Constitution grant
the federal government the enumerated power to promulgate domestic
social law. Since such power is not Constitutionally denied to the
States, it is the State legislatures that Constitutionally have sole
legal jurisdiction over the definition of marriage. Note that this is
absolutely not a civil rights issue calling for federal nullification of
State law - sexual orientation is neither immutable nor a birth
condition, and thus is outside the purview of federal special class law
and the Civil Rights Act.

Obergefell v. Hodges is a Constitutional abomination that I suspect many
States will nullify over time via State Sovereignty Acts. In the
interim, we need federal conscience protections from Congress to protect
individuals, businesses, churches, charities, schools, advocacy groups,
and media outlets from the inevitable resulting mass erosion of First
Amendment rights of people and organizations of faith. The radical
Homosexual Lobby wants much more than the right to marry (a privilege
which it doesn't even legally have unless the operant State legislature
grants it) - they are demanding that individuals and organizations of
faith support and implicitly endorse gay marriage, under threat of
severe civil and criminal penalties. This is a violation of First
Amendment freedom of speech and expression that as a society we cannot
tolerate.

Your position on whether or not Vermont should permit gay marriage is
not the issue here. The issue is simply this - First Amendment freedoms
of speech, expression, and religion are not confined to the home and the
church. Our Founders in fact expressly intended that all American law
comport with Biblical ethical doctrine, making the Bible higher in
American legal precedence than the Constitution and even the Declaration
of Independence. "Separation of church and State" (the Constitution's
Establishment Clause) was constructionistly intended only to protect the
church from the state - there was never any originalist intent that it
protect the state from the church. Hence modern secular humanist
arguments that religion has no place in the public squares of commerce
and government have no factual basis in Constitutional law,
constructionistly interpreted - such beliefs are merely revisionist
"hope items" of radical left wing voters and government officials.

For all the reasons above, I respectfully request that you cosponsor the
First Amendment Defense Act (H. R. 2802), as well as push as hard as you
can on Majority Leader McCarthy to bring FADA up for a House floor vote
before the August recess. FADA is a desperately needed interim measure
to protect First Amendment rights until the States have enough time to
enact nullification laws interposing against Obergefell v. Hodges.

In Liberty,

Stu asks that we send this to our senators

from Doofiegirl on 07/15/2015 03:01 PM

Dear xxx,

 

The nuclear deal reached with Iran is very bad. Iran can still enrich
uranium. It can keep centrifuges in a "bunker buster" proof vault.
Critical sanctions will be lifted, and Iran still insists that Israel be
destroyed. As Prime Minister Netanyahu warned, nothing in these terms
prevents Iran from getting the atomic bomb. In fact, these terms ensure
that Iran will get the bomb. This deal is an absolute non-starter, and
Iran must not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

As I look at the deal the Obama Administration made with Iran, one key
fact jumps out - absolutely nothing has changed about Iran's objectives
during the course of these negotiations. Iranian leaders still chant
"Death to America, Death to Israel," and they still actively support
terrorism against the U.S., Israel, and our allies. These people aim to
kill as many Americans and Israelis as possible. When someone says they
want to kill you, believe them. For what conceivable reason would they
say that unless they meant it?

Iran is utterly desperate to have sanctions lifted. They want to sell
oil, they want to buy arms, including the technology to build missiles
that can hit Israel and Europe, and they want billions in frozen assets
returned - assets they will turn around and use to fund terrorism around
the world. What has changed, though, is that Iran has learned the
lessons of Libya, Iraq, and North Korea. Libya and Iraq both had
nuclear programs at one time. When they ceased to have those programs,
they were vulnerable to attack. Now Muammar Qaddafi and Saddam Hussein
are dead. North Korea, when faced with the same pressure, made a deal
and then broke it. Now North Korea has nuclear weapons, and the Kim
family remains in power. Iran has learned this lesson. The West has not.

But this deal isn't done yet. Congress still has to vote on it, and
with 67 votes in the Senate, we can stop it. That means there are
concrete, real actions you can take to help stop Iran from getting a
nuclear weapon.

The Iran deal is a bad deal. You must oppose this terrible deal. We are
currently contemplating unfreezing billions of dollars in assets, and
lifting trade sanctions, in exchange for NOTHING. No surprise
inspections at secret facilities, no permanent promise of uranium
enrichment caps, no limits on R&D for intermediate and long range
missiles, and no promise to cease research on a plutonium trigger.

Appeasing a sadistic enemy is pointless. You give an inch, they take a
mile. Appeasement just begets further belligerence. Iran needs to know
that if they don't COMPLETELY end all nuclear weapons research,
sanctions will be so severe that masses will be dying in the streets.
As the madman Saddam Hussein once quite accurately said, "Don't punch a
man in the stomach unless you plan to kill him." Iran knows that
violating even the minimalist terms of the currently proposed "deal"
will invite more sanctions - they will act preemptively to wreak havoc
before we get a chance to retaliate economically. Put simply, that
means yet more Iranian inspired deaths in Europe and the Middle East,
and perhaps here at home.

We have so much more power than Iran, but we lack the will to USE IT.
We can easily break the economic, and thus political back of Iran by
simply shutting them out of most all trade. Riots in the streets from
lack of food and basic services will bring the mullahs down, and have
the IRGC hiding under their beds. We can do this, but we need the
spine. We have to stop being so afraid of Russian friendship with
Iran. Russia is a great power, but at current, even with our atrocious
atrophy of national defense capabilities, we are still more powerful
than the Eastern block, at least at present. We must move quickly, as
the Russia/China axis threatens to exceed our military capabilities
within 5-10 years (much faster if India and Japan joins in, which is
highly likely).

We need a lot more Churchill, and a lot less Chamberlain.

For Peace,

The text of the July 14 Media Reality Check:

Walloping Walker: The Media's Worst Attacks on the Wisconsin Governor

Scott Walker's official entry into the 2016 presidential race has already been met with questions about his sophistication and readiness to be president by the liberal media. The day of Walker's announcement The New York Times' Patrick Healy portrayed the GOP governor as someone who isn't ready for the world stage: "Two words these [Walker] voters do not use about him? 'Smart' and 'sophisticated.'"

Healy added: "A series of early gaffes alarmed party leaders and donors and led Mr. Walker to begin several months of policy tutorials. The collective hope is that Mr. Walker can avoid what Mr. Goeas and other advisers describe as Sarah Palin's problem — becoming a candidate who is initially popular among Republicans, like the 2008 vice-presidential nominee, but loses luster because of missteps as the campaign goes on."

The liberal media first took notice of Walker in 2011, when he took on the public unions to bring some financial stability to Wisconsin. For this he was called a "hooligan" by The Washington Post's Dana Milbank and "un-American" by MSNBC's Joe Scarborough. Scarborough's MSNBC colleague Ed Schultz called his budget "racist," and invited Jesse Jackson to compare him to the segregationist Governor George Wallace. ABC's Diane Sawyer and NBC's Brian Williams compared anti-Walker protests to those against Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak.

Walker has taken shots from the celebrity crowd as well. Stand-up comic Sarah Silverman once tweeted that she wanted to "anally probe" the governor and HBO's Bill Maher compared him to the banjo-playing boy in the movie Deliverance.

The following examples, culled from the MRC's archive, are the worst attacks (so far) on Scott Walker:

# CBS Reporter: Is 'Awkward' Walker Ready for 'Primetime?'

Dean Reynolds: "Awkward exchanges like this have raised questions about his readiness for primetime."
Unidentified reporter: "Are you comfortable with the idea of evolution? Do you believe in it? Do you accept it?"
Scott Walker: "For me I'm going to punt on that one as well."
Reporter: "No. Really?"
Walker: "That's a question a politician shouldn't be involved in one way or the other."
Reynolds: "To guard against criticism that he lacks a certain presidential heft, the governor has been undergoing weeks of briefs on global issues, everything from net neutrality to ISIS."
—CBS's Dean Reynolds on CBS This Morning, July 13, 2015.

# Protests Against Walker Just Like Those Against Egyptian Dictator

"Today, we saw America's money trouble meet a reality, a human reality, as teachers, nurses, tens of thousands of state workers took to the streets in this country protesting cuts by the governors, saying to these governors, a promise is a promise. One lawmaker looked out at the crowds gathered in the Wisconsin capital today and said it's like Cairo moved to Madison."
— Anchor Diane Sawyer opening ABC's World News, February 17, 2011.

"From the Mideast to the American Midwest tonight, people are rising up. Citizens' uprisings are changing the world."
— Anchor Brian Williams leading off NBC Nightly News, February 18, 2011.

# Dana Milbank Calls Walker a Hooligan

"'I don't budge,'" Walker promised the fake Koch. He explained that he would increase pressure on state workers by threatening thousands of them with layoffs. He considered planting instigators in the crowd, he said, and he might offer to talk to Democrats - but only as a ruse to get them to return. 'I'm not negotiating,' he said. These are not the words of a statesman. These are the words of a hooligan."
— Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank writing about the content of a phone conversation between Walker and a prankster who pretended to be billionaire David Koch in his February 27, 2011 column.

# Scarborough: Walker's Stand Against Collective Bargaining 'Seems Kind of Un-American To Me'

"I'm going to get killed for saying this." I'm going to get so killed for saying this – I hate to say this, but the concept of telling people that they cannot come together to negotiate with a government – it just kind of seems un-American to me."
— Joe Scarborough on MSNBC's Morning Joe, February 28, 2011.

# Ed Schultz Calls Wisconsin Budget 'Racist'

"Well, I'll say it. This is a racist budget. I mean, anybody with a brain knows that those 82 percent of the kids under the poverty level are never going to go to a private school, and yet the governor wants the parents of those kids to take a portion of their tax dollars and fund private schools. I mean, it is a racist budget. You cannot get around it. It's picking on the poor. It's picking on the inner-city kids. How else can you read it?"
— Ed Schultz in a discussion about school vouchers with Al Sharpton on MSNBC's The Ed Show, March 3, 2011.

# On The Ed Show: Jesse Jackson Compares Scott Walker to Racist Governor George Wallace

ED SCHULTZ: Last night I had chance to see firsthand the enthusiasm for this recall election. Reverend Jesse Jackson rallied hundreds of voters in northwest Milwaukee. He called this election one of the biggest moments in the history of our democracy. He compared it to Emmett Till's lynching and Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her seat. The Reverend also compared Governor Walker to Alabama's governor George Wallace.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
REV. JESSE JACKSON: So now you have a governor -- Wallace did it in Alabama – and now Walker in Wisconsin. Trying to take back access to voting. [inaudible] Protect the basic right to vote!
(END VIDEO CLIP)
...
SCHULTZ: Why did you compare Wisconsin's governor walker to Alabama's segregationist George Wallace?
JACKSON: Well, one has tried to block the vote and lost and Walker is trying to stop the vote and will lose.
— Discussion between Ed Schultz and Jesse Jackson on MSNBC's The Ed Show, June 4, 2012.

# ABC News Says Walker was 'At One Point Was the Most Divisive Politician in America'

MARTHA RADDATZ, SUBSTITUTE HOST: And now Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, a GOP rising star and Tea Party favorite. He made his name taking on unions and is now a possible 2016 contender. Jon Karl is back with the inside story of a man who at one point was the most divisive politician in America.
...
JON KARL: Governor Walker, for a while, you were the most divisive man in America. What'd you learn from that?
— ABC's Martha Raddatz and Jon Karl profile Walker on ABC's This Week, November 17, 2013.

# Rosie O'Donnell Compares Walker to Egyptian Dictator

"I feel like this is the most important issue our nation is facing right now, and has for the last fifty, sixty years...There's apparently over 100,000 people in the freezing cold in Wisconsin standing there, and they have been for the last eleven days? It took seventeen days to get the government in Egypt to stop abusing their citizens after thirty years of rule...I believe the people of Wisconsin were inspired by watching the people of Egypt...stand up to tyranny and dictatorship, a thirty-year dictatorship taken down in seventeen days of peaceful protest. The people in Wisconsin deserve our support...They are us."

Re: A few thoughts on the debt bubble

Get ready for the mess, it is going to happen.  Any bubble can only expand so far before it bursts.  More crashes, more foreclosures, more bankruptcies...and for something new, get ready for bail-ins.  Yee-haw.  

When we shipped the bulk of our manufacturing jobs overseas, we were left with a single major export...the dollar.  The value has, thus far, been kept up due to the petrodollar scheme.  Which, btw, people had to die to keep that in place, but what if BRICS does what Saddam and Qaddafi were prevented from doing?  Or what if, as some claim, that BRICS was orchestrated by the PTB to bring those fringe countries into the NWO?  Either way, it isn't looking good for the average American, or the citizens of other countries.  

What is the financial marketplace but a gigantic crap shoot.  It is like a worldwide Las Vegas that affects everyone, whether they have directly invested or not.  Many, if not most, do invest, even if indirectly through mutual funds and pension funds.  You are invested via your bank, your insurance, your employer...even through those who you purchase goods and services from.  And a massive meltdown will have a massive impact on us...except for a very few, who we can liken to "the house" when speaking about casinos.  Remember the old saw?  "The house always wins."

Yep.  And I also know that the last two stock market crashes coincided with the 29th of El Ul, the last day of the Hebrew year, seven and fourteen years ago on 29 September 08 and 17 September 01 respectively.

Do you know OT law about debt forgiveness?

from zero on 07/14/2015 10:59 PM

Deuteronomy 15

"At the end of every seven years you must cancel debts. This is how it is to be done: Every creditor shall cancel any loan they have made to a fellow Israelite. They shall not require payment from anyone among their own people, because the Lord's time for canceling debts has been proclaimed. You may require payment from a foreigner, but you must cancel any debt your fellow Israelite owes you. However, there need be no poor people among you, for in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess as your inheritance, he will richly bless you, if only you fully obey the Lord your God and are careful to follow all these commands I am giving you today. For the Lord your God will bless you as he has promised, and you will lend to many nations but will borrow from none. You will rule over many nations but none will rule over you.

 

"If anyone is poor among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them. Rather, be openhanded and freely lend them whatever they need. Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought: "The seventh year, the year for canceling debts, is near," so that you do not show ill will toward the needy among your fellow Israelites and give them nothing. They may then appeal to the Lord against you, and you will be found guilty of sin. Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to. There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your fellow Israelites who are poor and needy in your land."

 

In case you're wondering, the date of the end of the seventh year is September 13th, 2015.

A few thoughts on the debt bubble

from zero on 07/14/2015 10:36 AM

Take a good look at Greece, what's happening in Greece is going to be global, most people can't fathom the unimaginable horror that awaits us all. That's because besides having a sketchy knowledge of history, most people don't really understand the real truth about the present situaton, so here's the basics.

How is money created?

Money is loaned into existence, either in the form of government bond purchases by central banks or loans made by local banks to companies or individuals. It's called fractional reserve banking. The good thing about the system is it makes the creation of money the product of the demand for money, so there's always enough money to loan. The bad thing is it creates an insatiable demand for economic growth. Because all money is loaned into existence, it comes with a bill of interest. There is no mechanism to create the money needed to pay interest other than to issue more loans. That's right - the global financial system is essentially a pyramid scheme. And when you think about it, interest is what makes humanity a cancer on the world, it's what drives us to take ever more.

If you look at what's happening right now in Greece, the final step in the process is the people who were given the power to "make up" the money out of nothing and loan it out end up owning everything. It's a mathematical certainty.

Thus, I think the way forward is fairly obvious, if we are to survive as a species and not kill our planet, money needs to be created without interest. Government could spend money into existence, and tax it out of existence. That would give those in charge of overseeing the system the ability to ensure there is enough money in the system to facilitate trade, but not so much that the money becomes devalued.

The system we have now is about to hit the wall, (at least that's what the smart money has been saying) and when it does, we will be told that there is no way out but global enslavement to bankers. Just remember, all that quadrillions of dollars that are owed were created out of thin air.
