Watchdogs, Lapdogs and Corndogs

4 Americans Dead; Embassies destroyed, attacked or threatened in Libya, Egypt, Tunisia, Sudan, Indonesia, Yemen, Lebanon, UK and China;

Protests in Gaza, Iraq, Bangladesh, Qatar, Kuwait, Malaysia, Syria, Pakistan & Afghanistan;

Aside from the absurdities spewing from the white house about why it all happened (which they are now having to walk back on)--all the media wants to talk about is Romney’s supposed “gaffe” about the “47%” and whether the election is now over.

I have been referring to the Mainstream Media "watch dogs" as Lap Dogs as they have so patently protected their anointed one through some mystifying foreign policy debacles of late with far-reaching global consequences. But today my friend Steve came up with an even better term for them: "Corn Dogs" because they belong in the freaking circus!

What would happen should the other part of that same tape be released by mainstream media in which Romney speaks incredibly candidly about the dangers of the Fed's current action, what should be done about it, and what the consequences will be if it’s not addressed in short order?

Oh right--a whole bunch of independents and Ron Paul supporters might wake up and support the one candidate who has a snowball’s chance in hell of righting the ship.

It’s not enough that our kids will be indentured servants because of the money the fed is printing and the government is spending. At this rate they will also answer to the end of a machete at the behest of the MB who oddly enough keeps getting invited to the White House. How much of the world has to be on fire before we demand truthful reporting?

Hey but wasn’t O smooth on Letterman and ET the other night? Yeah, that was great.

Listening Now & Then

Mychal Massie stated that "all of the greatest momentary “triumphs” of horrific injustice were said and/or thought to be impossible to take place–and that includes Hitler’s murdering Jews as well as the market crash of 1929. When the warnings of danger first went forth in both of historical nightmares, there existed many who argued those sounding the alarm were clueless alarmists who didn’t know what they were talking about."

So call it normalcy bias, denial, group think, political/philosophical obstinacy...or just plain ineptitude from years of media & institutional brainwashing--people didn't listen then and they're not listening now. And sadly it will be with comparable consequences. I've never wished more strongly to be wrong...

Obama Intelligence

Perhaps if Obama hadn't missed 52% of his intelligence briefings to date and in particular, the 7 in a row before yesterday--maybe, just maybe we would have had adequate protection for our foreign service personnel in Benghazi.

I'm not a huge Bush fan and you can say what you want about him--but he didn't miss his intelligence briefings. He also didn't rebuff allied leaders who are under legitimate threat of a potential nuclear holocaust so he could instead meet with 'Pimp with a Limp' and David Letterman. Obama is "the best friend Israel has ever had"? Really?

QE3 - Indefinite Fuel for Inflation

QE3 is now official. The Fed will spend $40 Billion per month in fiat funds indefinitely 'even after economic recovery strengthens'. The 4th layer of smooth Tarmac to Wiemar has now been laid. Stocks go berserk and everything is butterflies and lollipops conveniently just before the election.

Just wait until the giant sucking sounds starts. At some point the same guys who are now blowing will decide it's necessary to normalize the money supply and will start sucking it back out. That process will be so loud, so strong, and so long I'll wager Carter's stagflation will look pretty favorable. It's no wonder almost 10% of the country has taken their $ out of banks.

Anyone with a knowledge of history care to explain to me how the bright light at the end of this tunnel is not a runaway freight train? Some good news would be great about now.

Dear Government, We Built the Economy...

September 6 via mobile

Dear Government,

We built the economy and from the fruits of our efforts WE paid YOU to build the roads and bridges. And by the way a lot of them suck! So we believe will find somebody else to do the job next time.

Truly Not yours,
We the People — at USA.

Inflation: The Silent, Deadly Tax

"The economy needs another shot of Federal Reserve stimulus and this time around, it needs it indefinitely," said Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco President John Williams. Now who would have figured that 'we must do this now to save the system' would become 'we must do this indefinitely'? At least the masks are finally coming off.


Until the government stops spending we can plan on an accelerated continuation of this unconscionable theft of personal wealth from ordinary Americans by the very few corrupt power elite. Just be sure you get the decimal in the right place: it's more like the .0001% who are doing this to America and in particular to the wealthiest 10% who employ the rest of us. If you don't believe economics 'trickle down'--bad and good--then you don't understand the silent, deadly and illegal tax called inflation. What's astounding is how easily the .0001% has convinced the masses that the ones being stolen from are the bad guys.

The 800lb Baby Monster in the Economy

Bad economic policies, rampant cronyism and corruption have impregnated the financial system with a monster (think Alien). Washington and Wall Street have been so afraid of what might actually be born that they have refused to allow it to happen--especially since it could have jeopardized their ability to use the 2008 GFC to stealthily extract wealth and usurp power.

Dizzied with denial they instead hooked up an IV with calcium channel blockers (TARP); prostaglandin synthetase inhibitors (QE1); and beta-mimetics (QE2) all designed to halt labor. Now they're looking for a vein in the other arm for Magnesium sulfate (QE3).

A few questions: regardless of what the baby turns out to be, what happens to the Mother if you don’t take it out in time? Does anyone really believe this financial monster is never coming out...Tasmanian style? How big do we want it to be when it does? Finally, who is most capable and experienced in dealing with financial health?
