 America vs America and its losing! posted by doc, 2009-04-15 23:55:54
The first signs of social incompetence are living in your own private ‘USA’ and failing to connect to the world around you; for nations that condition is fatal! (full story)

  Earth Changes according to Edgar Cayce posted by quill, 2009-04-12 08:03:35
Edgar Cayce needs no introduction for those sensitive to life and its greater meaning. Humankind has unfortunately failed itself; it failed to learn two simple lessons, brotherly Love and Peace! The USA leads the world today in mass murder, plunder, selfishness, crime and all manner of vile pursuits. Those who follow will share in the 'reward!'
I leave you with some interesting predictions. (full story)

 Losing heart? Not on YOUR bloody life! posted by major mitchell, 2009-03-28 00:41:16
Whether it was news of our pathetic, pipsqueak PM, Kevin ‘suck harder’ Rudd, accepting ‘advice’ from a heinous war criminal, Henry ‘4 million carpet-bombed dead’ Kissinger or Obama’s latest speech framing IMPERIALIST war policies in smoother words but no less bloody consequences that made me stall, I do not know – old soldiers never flinch, they just get stoned! However, on this occasion it was pure rage that propelled me forward and sustained my sense of purpose and FIGHT, yes F-I-G-H-T, I was trained for the task – at birth! (full story and 3 comments)

 I can add too! posted by angry citizen, 2009-03-22 01:45:56
This comment has been upgraded because it makes sense 'across the board' -- something that Executive elites have been unable to do for years! Anyone that has any assets whatsoever in the 'stock market' -- for the want of a more accurate term -- could be best described today as a fool's FOOL!
Angry citizen's comment puts the entire financial meltdown in contextual perspective -- see how THEY run! Use it like a hot knife when dealing with the 'butter' explanations of shysters and banksters. It certainly frames the article from Rolling Stone's, Matt Taibbi, in the comment section very nicely indeed -- a great read, Matt! Never forget the CURRENT REALITY and how we got here and WHO was responsible. Never again fall for the meaningless gibberish of 'experts' that reality BRANDS as thieves and liars -- simple! I'll leave you to the perfect deductions of an honest angry citizen! Ed. (full story and 2 comments)

 Restoring our Financial Sovereignty posted by Nikki Alexander via quin, 2009-03-20 07:43:36
Prologue
When Benjamin Franklin was called before the British Parliament in 1757 and asked to account for the prosperity in the American colonies. He replied, "That is simple. In the colonies we issue our own money. It is called Colonial Scrip. We issue it in proper proportion to the demands of trade and industry to make the products pass easily from the producers to the consumers. In this manner, creating for ourselves our own paper money, we control its purchasing power, and we have no interest to pay to no one."
It was the struggle for financial sovereignty that precipitated the American Revolution when the (Rothschild) Bank of England forced the colonies to give up their Scrip and intense poverty followed. (full story and 2 comments)

Social Reality Pill posted by yarra, 2009-03-18 21:01:58
For those living in the subterranean depths and for others who may not yet have noticed that one of the world’s great ‘religions’/ideologies has COMPLETELY FAILED! The STARK REALITY of today is that FREE MARKET CAPITALISM is DEAD or at the very least [is] a FLAWED and failed system. (full story and 3 comments)

 Paul Keating’s recent ‘sledging’ of Timothy Geithner in context posted by Kingfisher, 2009-03-17 22:48:44
Perhaps no Western leader was closer to the CIA backed, mass murdering former Indonesian President, General Soeharto than former Australian PM, Paul Keating. It would be fair to say that Soeharto and Keating were as ‘thick as thieves.’ (full story)

The FARCE that is the International Criminal Court (ICC) posted by Kingfisher, 2009-03-05 00:40:46
China has questioned the “legitimacy” of the ICC immediately after it issued a warrant for the arrest of the President of Sudan, Omar Hassan al-Bashir, for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. The ‘legitimacy’ of the court is in question due to its flagrant PARTIALITY -- we haven’t heard a peep from the ICC regarding warrants and charges against American or Israeli war criminals to date! And that is not for lack of EVIDENCE, which is freely available in the PUBLIC DOMAIN, notwithstanding the compromising public admissions (relating to torture) made on national television by former VP, Dick Cheney! Is it possible that ICC (and UN) investigators are so blind or incompetent? Highly unlikely! OR IS THE COURT A BRAZENLY BIASED INSTITUTION OF POLITICAL CONVENIENCE AND THEREFORE LEGALLY ILLEGITIMATE in every sense of the word? (full story)

Short memories and cowardice among ‘Superpowers’ posted by birdie, 2009-03-03 00:41:09
The avowed enemy of Russia, China and the entire free world, as the crimes of the past decade clearly indicate, is the criminal, terrorist (by any definition) USA! But what is Russia and China actually doing to forever hamstring this evil, mass murdering influence and prevent it wreaking more horror and havoc on the world? (full story and 1 comments)

 Unremitting deceit from leadership is killing the country posted by barra, 2009-02-28 08:56:19
How desperate, exhausted and thoroughly dispirited are the American people today?
American leaders in the public and private sectors have all but destroyed the nation with their lies, false hope and massive frauds. However, few analysts and advisers it seems are aware of the cost and consequences of constantly deceiving and ABUSING the people. (full story and 5 comments)

Lobotomy for all! posted by Kwang zi, 2009-02-19 23:02:02
Up to 20,000 jobs will be shed as the Royal Bank of Scotland attempts to recover from the appalling mismanagement of its executive class. [Isn’t it always the way; rank and file workers PAY the PRICE for managerial failures?] Puppet governments bailout banks with taxpayers’ hard-earned money then banks, in ‘appreciation’ of OUR help, sack us in droves without a second thought – now that’s GRATITUDE for YOU!

 Oz Parliament Suspended posted by fish, 2009-02-09 08:46:08
The Australian Parliament suspended normal business today to acknowledge the bushfire tragedy that continues to impact the State of Victoria. Politicians from both sides of the House expressed their sympathies for the victims. As of 11 Feb., 181 lives have been lost to the fires. Large townships have been severely impacted and some historical hamlets have been wiped out completely. Expressions of grief and sorrow gushed from Parliament House like the water pillaged from our artesian basin by BHP-Billiton! Today is a day of national reflection for more reasons than one.

 Central Asia, Nemesis of Empire posted by Kingfisher, 2009-02-07 22:13:24
Is it coincidence that organised crime flourishes wherever the US engages in its imperial wars of acquisition and exploitation? Only a fool or the uninformed civilian population would think that explosive increases in heroin production in Indo-China and Afghanistan were unrelated to American militarism. American military intervention in those regions was immediately followed by massive increases in opiate production. The ‘golden triangle’ and the so-called ‘golden crescent’ have become infamous as the largest heroin producing centres on the planet, what do you suppose is the common causative factor in these vastly divergent -- culturally and geographically -- regions? Does organised criminal activity ‘follow’ the USA or is the USA the world’s leading criminal and terrorist organisation? (full story and 1 comments)

Keith Olbermann's scathing attack on war criminal Cheney leads America in WRONG direction! posted by nose, 2009-02-06 22:58:05
Outside America we are not so easily distracted, duped OR MISLED! It is NOT a matter of "leave the country" (stated with downcast eyes, Mr Keith Olbermann) or finalising your attack on Cheney with "GO!" It is QUITE THE OPPOSITE!! (full story)

‘Yes we can,’ what? posted by dingo, 2009-02-05 19:45:49
A previous post put it to the American people clearly and without ambiguity; “well, what the fuck CAN YOU?” During the US election campaign the world watched with great amusement (millions) of mindless American morons chanting “YES WE CAN!” Another typically ambiguous and directionless chant/slogan missing the VITAL QUALIFIER to give it meaning and DIRECTION!
