“The United States is in very
deep trouble. First, the concept of repaying $16.7 trillion in debt is not even
a remote possibility over the next 100 years, even if the government had small
surpluses. Then, because the country is running such large deficits, the
national debt is increasing and getting worse…much worse. In addition, the
government is approximately $70 trillion in unfunded liabilities that have to
be resolved.”
“Pray that the market for the
national debt remains open so that the United States can keep borrowing to
repay the money is previously borrowed and then will have to re-borrow to repay
the money it just borrowed. There is no chance the market will not change its
demeanor over the next 100 years.”
That’s Murray Holland’s
conclusion in his book, “A Nation in the Red: The Government Debt Crisis and
What We Can Do About it” …..Holland calls it a Debt Trap and conservatives know
instinctively that the U.S. government is too large and too based in socialism
to survive. …..They came about as the result of a Keynesian view that
government spending would lift the economy out of its doldrums, but government
spending does nothing to improve the economy. It sucks money out of the economy
and, more specifically, out of the pockets of individual citizens and the
business community…..Americans have been blissfully ignored its intention of
the communist intention to destroy capitalism …..“This will cause the collapse
of America and the government could then turn to pure socialism,” says Holland,
noting that “Their scheme has been so well researched it has its own name: the Cloward-Piven
strategy,”……Follow the link in

Americans are inclined to
believe that, with the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the Cold War from
1945 to 1991 was over. In fact, that war of ideologies, communism versus
capitalism, began in the 1920s after the Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, initiated
a covert program to undermine America. Today we call it “political correctness”
and its impact on our society is sapping it of its true history and values.
“Willing Accomplices: How KGB
Covert Intelligence Agents Created Political Correctness, Obama’s
Hate-America-First Political Platform, and Destroyed America” by Kent Clizbe, a
former CIA espionage officer, reveals how active and covert agents of the KGB,
the Soviet security and intelligence agency, has led inevitably to the election
of a President who hates America and is seeking to undermine it in every way
possible.
If that sounds implausible,
keep in mind that Obama is the first President to shake the hand of Raul
Castro, the brother and current president of Communist Cuba, at the recent
Mandela memorial. He is the same President who told Dimity Medvev, the third
president of the Russian Federation from 2008 to 2012, that he would have more
“flexibility” in his second term to carry out its ideological war on America…..
“By the 1980s, full-blown politically correctness (had) infected academia,
education, the media, Hollywood, and American society in general. Americans
were constantly bombarded with reminders of their hatefulness, bigotry, racism,
sexism, and imperialism. Confused by the message of hate and disgust, while
their daily lives were filled with positive energy, normal Americans became
wracked with guilt.”…..Little wonder why conservative politicians and the Tea
Party movement are constantly attacked as bigoted and evil…..Follow the link in the title to read more…..

I think the bulk of the U.S.
population, particularly likely voters in 2014, have reached the point where
they no longer believe anything
President Obama says.
It coincides with what may be
the lowest level of confidence in the U.S. Congress. Its Democratic members all
voted for Obamacare without reading it and the harm it is doing to millions of
Americans, along with its total lack of constitutional legitimacy, will likely
see those running for election and reelection in the 2014 midterms defeated.
As the first year of Obama’s
second term is completed in January, the nation is at a point that I don’t
think has existed since the days leading up to the Civil War in 1861. It took
until 1865 to conclude that split and a hundred more years to make right the
many wrongs that led up to it........Obama is the fulfillment of a
long effort by the former Soviet Union, begun in the 1920s, to transform our
society from one whose values and policies led the world in the effort to
oppose communism even as it and European allies embraced socialist programs
that are now threatening theirs and our economic stability. “Social justice” is
the term adopted and exercised through “political correctness”, a philosophy
that paints the U.S. as a heartless, rapacious, racist, capitalist nation more
to be hated than admired. …..The failure of the Republican Party to strongly
advocate the traditions and patriotic beliefs of Americans led to his
reelection. The other factor was the adoption of the Alinsky-inspired methods
of character assassination and the distortions of our history that is heard and
read daily in the mainstream press and taught in our nation’s schools from
kindergarten to college....Follow the link in the title to read more…..

I am on the Friends of the
Earth (FOE) email list and receive a steady stream of theirs and the Sierra
Club’s lies about the environment. A recent FOE mailing stating that
“Devastation from climate change has become all too frequent.”
This is simply an outright
lie. Inherent in natural events such as hurricanes and typhoons, blizzards,
tornadoes, floods, droughts, and forest fires is the damage they cause, but FOE
asserted that “People in vulnerable communities are already struggling with
dirty air, unsafe housing and increased cancer rates. So when extreme weather
hits, its impacts are even more devastating.”
All communities, from small
towns to major cities are by definition “vulnerable”, but the air has undergone
significant clean-up over the years so this is not a common problem anywhere.
As for cancer rates, they too have been in decline thanks to advances in
medical care. It is doubtful that most Americans live in allegedly unsafe
housing these days. Houses on both coastlines are vulnerable to ocean storms.
Houses inland are vulnerable to floods and fires. There is nothing inherently "environmental"
about this. It's about location......To FOE, however, this is a call for “critical
environmental justice.”
There is no such thing as
“environmental justice.” It is an invention of environmental groups that are
intent on convincing people that whatever they do or fail to do somehow has an
impact on the weather. .......Environmentalism is based on lies and the lies reflect
an agenda that regards humanity as the enemy of the Earth. ....Follow the link in the title to read more…..

It will be difficult for
Obama to be the center of attention when he attends the memorial of Nelson
Mandela. Former Presidents Clinton and Bush will be there as well
They have some things in
common. Both were the first black president of their nation. Mandela was a
communist and Obama is a communist. Both were sharply critical of the war in
Iraq. Both regarded Israel as illegitimate.
Mandela evolved into a man
who avoided recriminations against the wrongs perpetrated by his jailers and
the system of Apartheid imposed on South Africa’s black majority. Obama never
forgets or forgives anything he regards as criticism. Neither was, nor is a
saint, but sainthood of a sort is being given Mandela in the wake of his death.
Obama is more likely to suffer former President Carter’s fate.
No doubt we shall see his
handlers—if not himself—put on the mantle of Mandela with copious comparisons.
On word of Mandela’s death, the mainstream media launched itself into an orgy
of encomiums, praising him for enduring 27 years in prison, but not mentioning
that he was there as an agitator for the violent overthrow of the government;
one that had lost any moral authority to remain in power. International
opposition to that government eventually led to his release and the transition
to his being elected to govern.
Most certainly Mandela
suffered much during his long imprisonment. One can find little or no
comparable suffering on the part of Obama who seems to have glided through a
life whose official version bears little relation to what has since become
known. He has kept his paper trail under lock and key, but there are some
discrepancies that include his claim of being a “foreign student” at one point…..Follow the link in the title to read
