(Reuters) – Ron Paul was declared the winner on Saturday of a weeklong Republican presidential straw poll in Democratic President Barack Obama’s home state of Illinois.
It has been 307 days since the 112th Congress convened. Not only has not one job been created, but we have seen net job losses that can only be considered staggering. Many want to portray the 112th Congress as dysfunctional, but I think this should be qualified. When working on the issues of the 99%, the Congress is definitely completely dysfunctional. However when taking up the legislation of the 1%, the one party system works like a well oiled machine.
The international corporate mafia continues to steal hand over fist as its propaganda machine continues to put forth lies designed to justify the continuation of the theft. Yesterday I predicted that the unemployment rate would fall to 8.9% based on false numbers in reference to long term unemployed being removed from the percentage. Well my prediction was completely wrong as I missed the number by an astounding one tenth of one percent.
The propagandists say 80,000 jobs were created in October. They also say that 125,000 jobs per month are needed just to keep up with the population growth. In explaining how the percentage dropped in spite of this fact, the propagandists said that more long term unemployed stopped looking for work. This is a pure unmitigated lie. To say that someone stops looking for work because their unemployment runs out is the definition of unreality. Continue reading “Socialism, Communism, Isolationism – A Reality Check”
New jobless claims came in at 397,000 for the week. The propagandists are claiming that this number shows an improvement. We have to remember that this number is directly reflected with those running out of unemployment because they have reached the 99 weeks cutoff. I predict that today the Department of Labor will drop the unemployment rate to 8.9%, citing as cause that there are less unemployed people because more have stopped looking for work.
These two bit cons think that we in the general population, the 99%, are incapable of three dimensional thought. When a person exhausts an unemployment claim that person is removed from the unemployment rolls and becomes one of those persons who is no longer looking for work and hence not counted in the unemployment percentage.

President Barack Hussein Obama AKA Barry Soetoro AKA Barry the Rat is off to France to attend the G-20 Summit wherein he will receive his marching orders from the international politburo. Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou has announced that the proposed Greek bailout will not be occurring unless approved through a national referendum by the Greek people, evidently in an attempt to stave off a forced rendezvous with a guillotine.
Well it seems Herman Cain has run into a little problem. Apparently when he was the CEO of the National Restaurant Association back in 1996, which is a lobbying organization by the way, he was accused of sexually harassing someone who worked under him and thereafter a settlement was paid to his accuser, a part of which evidently included a non-disclosure agreement. Of course Herman vehemently denies committing any sexual harassment; that is after he had a couple of days to recall the incident.
So, the accuser was paid off under the condition that she could never speak of the incident again. Hmmm. Sounds like a rich man bought himself out of a situation that could have destroyed the life of an average citizen. But that is really no surprise as Herman is a prominent member of the top 1%. And let’s face it; once you have served with the Federal Reserve, you are above the law. Hell, you make up your own laws. Continue reading “Neo-Cons Desert Cain and Turn to Gingrich”
The Dow fell 276 points, the Nasdaq fell 52.74 points, and the S&P fell 31.78 points on Monday. Can we all remember last Thursday when every economist within the mainstream propaganda machine was shouting “Economic Boom! Invest, invest, invest!” expecting people with pension plans to dive into the arena to be raped? Well it would seem nobody fell for it. That huge enormous 339 point gain on the Dow has now been reduced to 63.
Thursday we will have the weekly new jobless claims report followed by the monthly unemployment report on Friday, after which these same sleazebags will be coming forth to tell us that this proves we must stop taxing the filthy rich. I know this makes no sense, but since when has any of this made sense? Continue reading “Ignorance Runs Rampant on Wall Street”
It seems that Libya has jumped out of the mainstream propaganda almost as fast as it jumped in. The reports we have seen are bringing forth the fact that the Al Qaeda rebels committed gross atrocities and mass murder as a part of their insurgency. Tens of thousands of Libyan citizens have been executed while our Air Force held back the Libyan Army. There is talk of Muammar Gaddafi’s last remaining son surrendering to be tried as a war criminal.
The hypocrisy has become blatant. We supposedly instituted a no-fly zone to stop the Libyan Army from killing innocent civilians. But what occurred in reality was an American led genocide against the Libyan people who represented a majority that supported their government. Of course there will be no charges of war crimes against the Al Qaeda insurgents and their NATO allies. Continue reading “Libya, Syria, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and World War III”
