Ron Paul to
Obama: Use war chest to fund FEMA for Irene victims Representative Ron
Paul(R-TX), and GOP presidential hopeful, spoke with Chris Wallace on
Fox News Sunday this morning detailing the reasons why he says,
“Fema is not a friend”, finally saying that when the Obama
administration requests extra money for broke FEMA to aid states hit by
Hurricane Irene, he was willing to deal with Obama by using money
intended for war. Otherwise, his vote is a resounding “No!” because
our country is, he claims, “We are bankrupt. We don’t have any
money.” Read

It's easy to be
wasteful when you are spending someone else's money!!! As much as $60 billion
in U.S. funds has been lost to waste and fraud in Iraq and Afghanistan
over the past decade through lax oversight of contractors, poor planning
and corruption, an independent panel investigating U.S. wartime spending
estimates. In its final report to Congress, the Commission on Wartime Contracting said the figure could grow as U.S. support for reconstruction projects and programs wanes, leaving both countries to bear the long-term costs of sustaining the schools, medical clinics, barracks, roads and power plants already built with American tax dollars.

The decade's
biggest scam The Los Angeles Times examines the staggering sums of money expended on patently absurd domestic "homeland security" projects: $75 billion per year for things such as a Zodiac boat with side-scan sonar to respond to a potential attack on a lake in tiny Keith County, Nebraska, and hundreds of "9-ton BearCat armored vehicles, complete with turret" to guard against things like an attack on DreamWorks in Los Angeles. All of that -- which is independent of the exponentially greater sums spent on foreign wars, occupations, bombings, and the vast array of weaponry and private contractors to support it all -- is in response to this mammoth, existential, the-single-greatest-challenge-of-our-generation threat: Read More

Wall Street Aristocracy Got $1.2
Trillion From Fed Citigroup Inc. (C) and
Bank of America Corp. (BAC) were the reigning champions of finance in
2006 as home prices peaked, leading the 10 biggest U.S. banks and
brokerage firms to their best year ever with $104 billion of profits. By 2008, the housing
market’s collapse forced those companies to take more than six times
as much, $669 billion, in emergency loans from the U.S. Federal Reserve.
The loans dwarfed the $160 billion in public bailouts the top 10 got
from the U.S. Treasury, yet until now the full amounts have remained

Chalk one up for the People! A Whatcom County, Washington Superior Court Judge yesterday threw the book at a photo enforcement firm for interfering with the right of the public to petition their government. Judge Ira Uhrig handed down from the bench a stinging rebuke to American Traffic Solutions (ATS). Uhrig found the firm's lawsuit to block an anti-traffic camera initiative from reaching the ballot in Bellingham violated state law, so he slapped the Arizona-based firm with a $10,000 fine and ordered it to pay the legal fees of the initiative's sponsors.

Editorial:
Obamacare down, but not out Escaping the catastrophic consequences of the new federal health care law may be a step closer since the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last week declared the linchpin of Obamacare unconstitutional. The government, said the 2-1 decision, cannot force people to buy health insurance. Read More
Ron Paul gave out
fewer Iowa Straw Poll tickets than Michele Bachmann It appears that while Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann beat Texas Rep. Ron Paul by 152 votes in the Iowa Straw Poll on Saturday, she gave away far more admission tickets than he did. Paul’s campaign gave out 4,750 tickets to straw poll voters, his campaign chairman, Jesse Benton, told The Daily Caller. Alice Stewart, a spokeswoman for Bachmann, wouldn’t disclose the number of tickets her campaign distributed. But Ben Smith of Politico reported that Bachmann’s campaign gave away 6,000 tickets.

The 11th Circuit Court
of Appeals on Friday ruled that the health care reform law’s
requirement that nearly all Americans buy insurance is unconstitutional,
a striking blow to the legislation that increases the odds the Supreme
Court will choose to review the law. The suit was brought by
26 states — nearly all led by Republican governors and attorneys
general — and the National Federation of Independent Business. The
Department of Justice is expected to appeal. And
another report...I want every angle possible!
FACT CHECK:
Republican debate strains some facts Michele Bachmann cast
her opinion as a settled fact when she told the Republican presidential
debate Thursday that a key element of President Barack Obama's health
care law is unconstitutional. And Mitt Romney danced around an attempt
to learn why he stayed largely mum on the epic debt limit standoff
between Obama and Congress.
Ron Paul spars with other
candidates over foreign policy After getting scant air time early on Thursday, Ron Paul’s foreign policy views took center stage during the debate’s second half in a heated exchange about U.S. relations with Iran. While Sen. Rick Santorum and U.S. Congresswoman Michele Bachmann said the Middle Eastern nation posed a clear threat to American security, Paul encouraged a policy of “respect” toward the country.

to do with the ridiculous price for gasoline and regulations that weigh
small businesses down??? As the Great Recession
gives way to a non-recovery, the American dream of starting a business
and making it big is dying -- and with it, the most significant driver
of new jobs in the U.S. economy.
Voters Question
Tea Party-Backed Lawmaker After Vote on U.S. Debt Accord First-term
Representative Sean Duffy leveraged voter backlash over expanded
government into an election win last year. His support last week for the
U.S. debt- reduction deal is leaving the Republican vulnerable to a
potential revolt of his own. In Duffy’s northwest Wisconsin district, the stock market’s volatility following Standard & Poor’s lowering of the nation’s credit rating has some voters angered with a deal they say didn’t do enough to prevent a downgrade. Others say they’re fed up with an ongoing debt debate that diverts attention from ways to jump-start a slow-moving economy. Read More

Sixty-nine percent (69%) believe the government does not have that consent. Fourteen percent (14%) are undecided. Read More
Yeah, we needed the news to tell

force is shrinking, as more Americans are giving up hope. Last month, only 58.1% of Americans age 16 and over were employed, a significant drop from before the recession and the lowest since 1983. That's especially worrisome to
economists, who say a steady increase in those dropping out of the work
force and not being counted in the unemployment rate is disguising just
how bad the labor market really is. "People are
dropping out of labor force for all types of reasons," said Robert
Brusca of FAO Economics. "And it's not a good trend.

rating — from AAA to AA+ — shook up global financial

the first credit downgrade in U.S. history ignited a heated blame game

Obama and the Left: a problem for
the WH? In Salon today, Ed Kilgore argues that the White House ignores liberal dissatisfaction with the President because it is largely confined to the "liberal elite" and "liberal opinion leaders" but has not extended to the average liberal voter to any substantial degree. To sustain this argument, Kilgore dismisses as statistically aberrational and insignificant a CNN article from last week about its new poll which found Obama's overall approval rating driven down to 45% "in part by growing dissatisfaction on the left with the president's track record in office" and "signs of a stirring discontent on the left"; CNN added: "roughly one in four Americans who disapprove of the president say they feel that way because he's not been liberal enough."

Demands $76 Trillion for “Green Technology” With the Western nations continuing their downward economic spiral, the advocates of the United Nations’ redistributionist schemes also continue to exploit the environmental agenda in their effort to fundamentally alter the global economy to serve their own ends. Despite the failure of
the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference in December 2009 to achieve its
goal of a treaty binding the industrialized world to an economic suicide
pact, the "voluntary" agreements are still a threat to the
West. The UN is engaged in an effort to use the imagined environmental
crisis as the justification for a program of sweeping economic
redistribution that would shift trillions of dollars from the
industrialized nations to the Third World. The UN is now demanding an
“investment” of $1.9 trillion per year in “green technology” to
meet the goals that the internationalists have set for the nations of
