The recent show of force in Pittsburgh was not the most brutal in America, but it was the most recent. Many scenes remind me of 1930 Germany and rounding up certain citizens for camps. The scenes may boil your water a little bit, but that’s OK. We need to know what is happening, and it aint pretty. We must remember in the end though that a violent revolution will not work against the brute force and weopons that are on display. We must reach eceryone, including the police and military, with a message of compassion nd love. Reminding them that we are their neighbors, friends, and family is a good place to start; maybe for ourselves as well…If this inter-friction keeps progressing with anger and hatred, were doomed. -ed Click below for the videos : Current news under this post.
Ensign Receives Handwritten Confirmation; Fine for Refusing to Obamacare
September 26, 2009This doesn’t happen often enough.
Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) received a handwritten note Thursday from Joint Committee on Taxation Chief of Staff Tom Barthold confirming the penalty for failing to pay the up to $1,900 fee for not buying health insurance.
Violators could be charged with a misdemeanor and could face up to a year in jail or a $25,000 penalty, Barthold wrote on JCT letterhead. He signed it “Sincerely, Thomas A. Barthold.”
The note was a follow-up to Ensign’s questioning at the markup.

Embedded in General Stanley McChrystal’s classified assessment of the war in Afghanistan is his conclusion that a successful counterinsurgency strategy will require 500,000 troops over five years.
This bombshell was dropped by NBC reporter Andrea Mitchell on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Wednesday: |
Micheal Moore on CNN: “..Capitalism Use’d to Mean Something Else…”,”…Fox’s Run the Hen House.”
September 26, 2009Although I don’t share the optimism in Obama that Micheal express’ here, I agree with most else of what he says. He maintains a fairness to the current administration but ultimately he confides that to him “it looks like fox’s run the hen house.” -ed

September 25, 2009source: Global Research
Over the past week U.S. newspapers and television networks have been abuzz with reports that Washington and its NATO allies are planning an unprecedented increase of troops for the war in Afghanistan, even in addition to the 17,000 new American and several thousand NATO forces that have been committed to the war so far this year.
The number, based on as yet unsubstantiated reports of what U.S. and NATO commander Stanley McChrystal and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Michael Mullen have demanded of the White House, range from 10,000 to 45,000.

Global Warming or Global Freezing: is the ice really melting?
September 24, 2009To be clear: For myself there are separate conversations that people too easily try to wrap up all together.
-
Man made “global warming”
-
Man made pollution (air, sea, soil, freshwater, mind, etc..)
Man made “global warming” for me is a healthy debate. And to be more honest, I sold my car a long time ago to “do my part.” I also changed my diet and lifestyle. While the environment was not the only reason for these changes, it did have a factor in the decision making process. Other obvious benefits were excercise and a good digestive system. The change was relatively easy, and most of all it felt great.
However, after considerable years I took a closer look at the arguments made by climate alarmism, and found myself at odds with the results. I honestly don’t think there is a conclusive result of analysis, research, or experiment out there that will show that CO2 is followed by the temperature. This is the core argument of man made global warming. For instance, if CO2 rose and fell according to the temperature outside, than that would completely unhinge the C02 scare. C02 in that case would be a result of the climate, which as we know is always changing.
Man made pollution however is a real threat. Genetically modified seeds, de-forestation, overconsumption, dumping in the water, toxic shit, pesticides, chem-trails, and advertising are all killing us slowly. Truly, we must not let those crucial elements of a healthy bio-system get watered down under the “CO2 scare.” Which, as I said, is open for a healthy debate. -ed

President Obama just made a melodramatic appeal at the United Nations for global measures to dramatically curb what he called “the climate threat,” current euphemism for what is more popularly known as Global Warming, the theory that man-made CO2 emissions from cars, coal plants and other man-made sources are causing the earth to warm to the point the polar icecaps are irreversibly melting and threatening to flood a quarter or more of the earth’s surface. There’s only one thing wrong with Mr. Obama’s dramatic scenario: it is scientifically utterly wrong. Since 2007 the polar icecaps have been growing not melting and the earth has been cooling, not warming.

9/11 Families To March on City Hall As City Seeks to Stop Fresh Probe of Attacks From Going On November Ballot
New York City – On Sunday, September 27 at 2pm, The New York City Coalition for Accountability Now (NYC CAN), a group comprising 9/11 family members, first responders and survivors, will march from Battery Park to City Hall in protest of the City’s attempt to block the referendum for a fresh probe of the 9/11 attacks from going on the November ballot.
The effort to establish a local commission to pick up where the 9/11 Commission left off comes just as the 9/11 Commission’s Chief Counsel John Farmer released a book entitled “The Ground Truth” in which he claims “at some level of government, at some point in time… there was an agreement not to tell the truth about what happened.”
80,000 New Yorkers have signed the petition as it has won the endorsement of 2002 TIME magazine person of the year, and former FBI agent, Coleen Rowley, as well as outspoken 9/11 victims’ family members including Bill Doyle, who lost his son Joey, and Lorie Van Auken, who lost her husband Kenneth. Van Auken is one of the esteemed ‘Jersey Girls’ who successfully lobbied the federal government to set up the 9/11 Commission only to have 70% of her group’s questions to the Commission go unanswered.

“For the Week Ended Last Friday … Insiders Sold 6.31 Shares for Every One They Bought”
September 23, 2009source: Washingtons Blog
Mark Hulbert notes:
The message from the insiders is rather sobering: They are selling a whole lot more of their companies’ stock than they are buying. The net difference is even larger than it was two months ago, when I noted that insiders were already selling at a greater pace than at any time since the top of the bull market in the fall of 2007…
Consider the latest data from the Vickers Weekly Insider Report, published by Argus Research. For the week ended last Friday, according to Vickers, insiders sold 6.31 shares for every one than they bought. The comparable ratio two months ago was 4.16-to-1, and at the March lows the ratio was 0.34-to-1.
As Vickers editor David Coleman puts it in the latest issue of his newsletter: “Given the dramatic decline in our sell/buy ratios over a relatively short period of time and the robust rally we have seen in the broad market averages, we expect the overall markets to trade flat to downward in the intermediate term — and with increasing volatility. Overall insider sentiment is bearish by nearly all metrics we track.”
TrimTabs and ZeroHedge claim that the insider sell/buy ratio has actually been much higher than 6.31 over the last couple of weeks.
