This is very important. The financial crisis was caused by interventionism, militarism and debt, not capitalism. It will be blamed on capitalism, and government will attempt to seize oppressive new powers, or, even worse, a global government will begin to form based on the lie that our current crisis is a failure of capitalism. It is not. We must win this intellectual argument to protect our freedom.

McBama has been talking about global solutions to global problems. I fear this is the rhetorical groundwork for global tyranny.

“The Prime Minister of Thailand was forced to scale a fence and flee in a police helicopter yesterday as thousands of protesters barricaded parliament in the latest twist in the country’s seething political turmoil.” (Read more from independent.co.uk)

As whatreallyhappened.com’s Michael Rivero said, “The Thais have balls Americans only dream of!”

“After taking the photo above, of a conflict between law enforcement and RNC protesters, Associated Press photographer Matt Rourke was himself tackled and bloodied by police. He was arrested and held for 10 hours, then released without being charged. . . .

Steps 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 in the 10 steps to fascism, as detailed in Naomi Wolf’s excellent book, The End of America were in full effect in St. Paul: 5) Surveil ordinary citizens, 6) Infiltrate citizens’ groups, 7) Arbitrarily detain and release citizens, 8) Target key individuals and 9) Restrict the press.”

“The FBI and Department of Homeland Security today issued an analytical ‘note’ to U.S. law-enforcement officials cautioning that al-Qaida terrorists have in the past expressed interest in attacking public buildings using a dozen suicide bombers each carrying 20 kilograms of explosives.

Authors with the U.S. Office of Intelligence and Analysis added that they have ‘no credible or specific information that terrorists are planning operations against public buildings in the United States.’” (Red more from MSNBC)

Okay, multiple choice. This is primarily:

a) a distraction from the fact that the $700 billion has been stolen by banks hasn’t helped.

b) preparing for the day when torch and pitchfork carrying citizens arrive at Federal buildings to inquire about their money. This type of news will allow them to more easily be associated with terrorists.

c) attempting to shift the debate toward security, the issue on which McCain best competes with Obama.

d) preparing to convince America that the “terrorist attacks” about to occur, which will keep Bush in office, or prevent Obama’s election, or result in martial law, or further expand government power, are the work of bearded men in caves.

e) other. (please specify)

P.S. The FBI’s mandate is to regulate interstate commerce. How did everything become their business?

“A decision, made under pressure from Congress and investors, to steer Fannie Mae into dangerous corners of the mortgage market proved to be disastrous.” This article is sickening. Typical of big media propaganda, they even personalize an executive, saying how he wanted his son to be proud of him. (Read more from NY Times)

The NY Times says nothing about the millions of dollars in campaign contributions made to Congress.

There’s broad speculation among the blogs I read about a movement to create a North American Union, which would give huge power to an international financial organization, and elevate them above the constraints of our pesky Constitution.

If true, the globalists attempting this may leverage the dollar crisis to propose the NAU. There’s even speculation that crashing the dollar is a deliberate step toward the NAU.

“Hollywood may benefit from the proposed $700 billion bailout of the U.S. financial system, the Los Angeles Times said late on Wednesday.

The plan which was endorsed by the U.S. Senate would provide tax breaks worth more than $470 million over the next decade for movie and TV producers that shoot in the United States, the paper said.

One provision in the bill would provide film and TV producers with the same tax deductions that American manufacturers such as General Motors Corp and Boeing Co receive for making their products at home, according to the paper.

. . . .

Additionally, the tax package lifts the budget cap on the existing tax deduction, which was limited to movies that cost less than $15 million to make — in effect excluding most studio films, which cost a lot more, according to the paper.” (Read more from news.yahoo.com)

“The millionaires in the US Senate, apparently moved by the prospect of having to actually live on their salary rather than their substantial investments, passed by a 75-24 vote a sweeter version of the Troubled Asset Relief Program(TARP) than the one that failed in the US House of Representatives on Monday. . . .

The House is scheduled to once again vote on the proposal on Friday; perhaps enough previously recalcitrant arms have been twisted, bent, fractured and, if that doesn’t work, ripped straight off the shoulders to obtain a passage vote there, as well. . . .

The problem here is that, in a financial crisis that has at its heart a loss of confidence in the financial system, why would you want to even further drain confidence by putting in question the actual truthfulness of bank balance sheets? Michael Rapoport of Dow Jones Newswires makes an intriguing point: Wachovia Bank, just bought out by Citicorp for $2 billion, had on its last day on its ledgers assets with a book value of $75 billion. Maybe its not that asset values are too low – maybe the entire crisis is the markets telling us that they’re too high. . . .

If the question is whether or not to buy something, like the $700 billion in mortgage securities to be bought in the plan, shouldn’t the question of how much you’re going to pay for it be a major consideration? All children in the capitalist world quickly learn the tradeoff between price and quantity. . . . It’s the same thing with mortgage-backed securities. The $700 billion can be spent to buy lots and lots of them very cheaply, or much fewer of them priced higher. Whichever option is chosen will critically determine whether we’ll soon be able to see the breaking of the dawn out of the current darkness.

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson and Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke have been playing this issue pretty close to the vest, but through leaks and the likes it looks like they’re going to be buying high, paying as close to par value on the securities as feasible. If this really is the implementation strategy for the buyout, one wonders just how much Dr Bernanke and Secretary Paulson really understand what’s on. . . .

Will paying higher prices for MBS accomplish that? It will, at least temporarily for whoever is lucky enough to get a piece of the government action. But for the system as a whole, the benefits are a lot more questionable. . . .

Essentially ignored in all this is the probable trillions upon trillions of leveraged structured finance derivative securities whose value depends on the original securities. Nobody really knows how much of these there are; one estimate put the number at around $25 trillion. You can’t solve a $25 trillion problem with $700 billion. It’s no wonder that Warren Buffet once called derivatives ‘financial weapons of mass destruction’.” (Read more from Asia Times Online)

“‘To the Democrats and Republicans who have opposed this plan, I say this: step up to the plate. Do what’s right for the country, because the time to act is now,’ Obama told rally in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Obama plans to fly back to Washington later to cast a vote in favor of the plan in the Senate. ‘It is clear that this is what we must do right now to prevent a crisis from turning into a catastrophe,’ he said.” (from ynetnews.com)

This is heartbreaking! How can he say this when so many economists say the plan makes no sense? When the Treasury admitted to pulling the $700billion figure out of thin air? When the people who predicted this crisis years ago are saying it won’t work? When the people being bailed out are the ones whose greed and irresponsibility caused this mess? When there is so much history reflecting exactly what is happening today?

Andrew Jackson to fear-mongering Central Bankers:

“There are no necessary evils in government, the Treasury to you gentlemen is closed!”
