As expected Ron Paul’s overwhelming win in the Iowa debate is being discredited in a hundred ways and Newt Gingrich is the man of the day, according to the mainstream propagandists.  What a government.  Back in 1996 Gingrich was charged with 84 ethics violations, which would be, in the world of the 99ers, 84 felonies, alleging tax evasion.  Nothing a few hundred thousand dollars wouldn’t cure.  And now here he is running for President.  Why the hell not?  Truth be known being a felon is probably a part of the criteria necessary in getting the backing of the international corporate mafia for any bid for President.

In watching yesterday’s GOP debate there can be no question that Ron Paul is as feared on the phony right as he is on the phony left.  It was plain to see that the entire structure of the debate was designed around minimizing Dr. Paul.  And you know what?  Once again it did not work.  FOX News is self proclaimed as a conservative broadcast.  Well they say “Fair and Balanced” but we all know that each and every one of them is a big-business person.  One thing they are clearly getting across in their message is that conservative can now be equated with anti-constitutional.

Today I’m sure Mitt Romney will be declared the uncontested winner with the only other candidate they talk about being Michele Bachmann.  But you know what?  It doesn’t matter.  No one cares.  These propagandists have become so incredible that it is pathetic to watch them try to peddle their crap like an old west snake oil salesman.  These are some of the goofiest people I think I have ever seen in my life and they sit before the camera and try to put themselves forth as statesmen and women.

Well the situation in our country seems to be completely out of control, sparking lawmakers to start naming the members of the new Supreme Soviet and calling for Congress to return as the situation has become an emergency.  Historically emergencies are ideal times for insurgencies and coups, and this time it is no different.

Everything we are seeing in the mainstream propaganda is staged.  This whole situation is no more an emergency today than it was last year this time.  I believe the new Supreme Soviet is being convened as fast as possible because the people throughout this land see it for exactly what it is.  And there is a growing defiance to its creation and proposed institution.

It is one hundred thirty-seven days until Christmas and there are more 99ers joining the ranks of the invisible every day.  If you are a new 99er you may think you know how bad things can get.  We who survived last Christmas as 99ers know what this winter is going to bring.

Two hundred and nineteen days since the 112th Congress convened and not one job has been created.  Of course legislation to continue to pay the contractors has been passed….for jobs, in the sense that the tax monies have been used to ship our jobs and industry out of our country.  And what do they tell us?  They say they can’t come up with a plan and that they just don’t know what to do.  Well here is a plan:

Two American contractors blew the whistle on the U.S government in 2006, and were tortured by the American military while under their supervision in a military prison in Iraq. Donald Rumsfeld is being held personally responsible. A three judge panel of the 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago has upheld a lower court’s ruling. He now may appeal to the US Supreme Court.

It seems that Rumsfeld didn’t take kindly to the two contractors blowing the whistle on suspected payoffs to Iraqi officials to guarantee government contracts. They were caught complaining about it, and got thrown in isolation and were apparently tortured by not being allowed to sleep, amongst other things.

We here at From the Trenches are recommending that all 99ers buy gold immediately.  Take your money out of stocks and buy gold now.  We 99ers have been laboring through the day biting our fingernails in ever increasing anxiety as the US credit rating has been lowered and stocks are plunging………not!

I wonder just how many realize that there are millions of us out here who cannot get excited about this economic news as the economics that are breathing down our backs are keeping a roof over our heads, paying the utility bills, and getting something to eat with no income or prospect of a job.

A week ago the con men were telling us we had to raise the debt ceiling or else there would be a catastrophe.  This week we are being told that we must follow the dictates of Standard and Poor’s or else there is going to be a catastrophe.  The international elite have become like a spoiled child who can’t get what he or she wants.  And what do they want?  The Social Security Trust Fund.

There is only so many ways to mealy mouth around a subject and they are employing all of them to the point that they are now saying that the only money that can pay this debt is that in the Social Security Fund.  You can’t cut defense spending because that is a different kind of money that cannot be used to pay debts.  You can’t cut the budgets of Homeland Security, the FBI, the CIA, the EPA, the TSA, FEMA, or foreign aid because again that is a different kind of money that does not work for paying off debts.

The international corporate mafia elite continue to wage their war of attrition upon the American poor and middle class.  The very definition of a war of attrition is to hurt your opponent in many different ways, and those waging this war upon us are in no way new to this concept.

Grant waged a war of attrition upon the South during the Civil War, cutting off cities one at a time and starving populations into submission by blocking supply lines and tearing up railroad tracks.  And indeed the original invasion of this continent to take it away from the native peoples was a protracted war of attrition.

Standard and Poor’s dropped the US credit rating to AA+ yesterday.  So who is Standard and Poor’s?  Well they, along with Moody’s and Fitch are the fraudulent slime bags that gave AAA ratings to the bad derivatives that were sold to our 401K pension funds which we lost as a result.

They also rated AAA many more bad derivatives that were insured by AIG, which we had to bail out, in essence pay the claims on, when the loans went bust.

They are the very same S&P that was paid by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae to give the AAA rating to the bad derivatives which were packaged and sold.

117,000 new jobs were created in the private sector in July, the unemployment rate falls from 9.2% to 9.1%.  We are living in a world of pure propaganda wherein the truth has been completely discounted.  So how could the unemployment rate possibly have dropped considering the millions of new filings for unemployment this year?  Our so called government just did another one of their surveys and determined that 193,000 of us quit looking for work.

There is apparently some illusion that says that people who once made between $50,000 and $250,000 a year have decided to retire on a welfare check and food stamps.  I don’t know how it is where you live but here where I’m at, only illegal aliens get welfare checks.  If you can speak English you are automatically disqualified.

I find myself a little down today as the stock market plunged over 500 points yesterday and gold went down a little too.  What am I saying?  This shit doesn’t have a thing to do with me.  I don’t have any stocks and I sure as hell don’t have any gold.  But then again I am stock as my birth certificate is traded on the world market daily.  I wonder if I am worth less, I don’t feel worthless, but I guess equity is in the eye of the beholder.

Personally I have to look at this drop in the stock market for what it is and that is another great big chunk of our resources and wealth heading out of our country.  See the stock market is nothing more than a big money pump.  It sucks our wealth and resources in one side through elimination of our jobs and liquidation of our property, and then blows it out the other side to offshore accounts where the corporate profits are kept.
