The US Economic Crisis: Jobs Continue to Vanish While the Media Applauds “Recovery”
At first glance it appeared there was a typo in the headlines. The national media reported that, in January, another 20,000 more jobs were lost. Somehow, the unemployment rate dropped, from 10 percent to 9.7 percent. Nobody thought this paradox was worth explaining; instead, the media’s attitude was “more good news” about the economy.
But there was other evidence of an obliterated job market hiding behind the cheerful headlines. After revising the employment numbers in 2009, The New York Times reported, “…the economy lost 150,000 jobs in December, far more than the 85,000 initially reported.” Overall in 2009, the adjusted numbers showed an additional “…1.36 million fewer jobs…” (February 5, 2010).
The conviction of the Pakistani neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui in New York last week of trying to kill American military officers and FBI agents illustrates that the greatest danger to our security comes not from al-Qaida but the thousands of shadowy mercenaries, kidnappers, killers and torturers our government employs around the globe.  |
Liberals Get a War President of Their Very Own
Suddenly and surprisingly, we have a Bush-like Obama Doctrine. To the applause of liberal hawks and formerly critical neocons, the president declared in his Nobel Peace Prize speech that the U.S. will continue to wage war—though naturally, only “just” war—anywhere and against anyone it chooses in a never-ending struggle against the forces of evil. His antiwar supporters can take seats on the sidelines. It’s all reminiscent of John F. Kennedy and the prescient George Ball, and afterward Ball and Lyndon Johnson. In the early ’60s, JFK—reluctantly, we are told by his admirers—decided to send 16,000 “trainers” to Vietnam to teach the South Vietnamese how to play soldier and to stop the Communists from sweeping over Southeast Asia.
Mashaal in Russia: Israel wants only war Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal said Monday that Israeli leaders bring "war and occupation" thus blocking peace talks on the Palestinians, Syria and Lebanon. Mashaal spoke after a meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Msocow. His statement leaves in doubt Russia's desire to host a Mideast peace conference and to involve Hamas, despite strong opposition from Israel and the US. The Russian Foreign Ministry issued no information about Monday's meeting between Mashaal and Lavrov. Moscow hopes to host a Middle East peace conference but has not yet set a date.  |
Mon, 08 Feb 2010 08:17:30 GMT - PressTV.ir Tel Aviv, which is reported to have an arsenal of 200 atomic warheads itself, accuses Iran of having the intention to develop nuclear weapons and routinely threatens to reduce the country's enrichment sites to rubble. This is while Iran, unlike Israel, is a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and has opened its enrichment facilities to UN inspection. A report released by the US Office of Naval Intelligence in December has confirmed that if Israel decides to bomb Tehran's nuclear sites, Iran's naval modernization and maritime capabilities have reached a point where it can seal off the Strait of Hormuz, through which nearly 40 percent of the world's oil supplies pass. "Given the importance of the Strait, disrupting traffic flow or even threatening to do so may be an effective tool for Iran," said the intelligence report. "[World economies would suffer] a serious economic impact from a sustain closure of the Strait of Hormuz due to greatly reduced supplies of crude oil, petroleum supplies and (liquefied natural gas)," ONI said.

Think Government Is Corrupt? You May Face 10 Years In Jail Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet.com Monday, February 8, 2010 Subversives who think government is corrupt and should be controlled by the people face 10 years in prison and a $25,000 dollar fine if they fail to register with authorities in South Carolina, in another chilling example of how free speech and dissent is being criminalized in America. The state’s “Subversive Activities Registration Act” is now officially on the books and mandates that “Every member of a subversive organization, or an organization subject to foreign control, every foreign agent and every person who advocates, teaches, advises or practices the duty, necessity or propriety of controlling, conducting, seizing or overthrowing the government of the United States … shall register with the Secretary of State.” |
CITIZENS, OCCUPY THE REPUBLIC: MEET THE ENEMY HEAD ON!
February 6, 2010 NewsWithViews.com As the celestial clock ticks down on history, there are millions upon millions who still do not know whether it is day or night. Among these are many who are just not capable of understanding the events which are crowding us into a corner from which there is only one way out and that is into the giant fan blades covering the exit. These folks are unable to care for themselves, are elderly, physically or mentally handicapped, and wonderful people who are financially destitute and at the absolute mercy of those around them. I know, I hear from many of them and they are terrified at the thought of a descending legion of mercenaries from hell who will terminate their life’s choices with the swift declaration of a “power of attorney” through an Obama “transparent choice you can live with” executive action. For millions of other Americans, it boils down to this. Do I spend what very little discretionary money I have left on storable food, water, natural medicines, firearms and ammunition, hand tools to rebuild with, energy systems, expensive rugged clothing or a thousand other necessary choices including a safe place to reside and a means to get there? Just what do I do first and will I have time to finish this Herculean task? READ MORE

The block was only removed early this morning following a raft of complaints after both websites were unavailable on many ISP’s since Friday.
As the New Zealand based InfoNews website reported yesterday, both of Alex Jones’ flagship websites were blocked by ISPs using Asia Netcom for their international internet traffic.

Where the jobs are
Everyone agrees that we should reduce our dependence on foreign oil.
Everyone agrees that we need to increase American jobs.
Everyone, except perhaps the President and his minions in the majority, agrees that the government cannot afford to subsidize either of these goals.
Both of these goals can be achieved quite easily with no government subsidy: drill here; drill now!
Congress could open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) in the twinkling of a Senate vote. This would pave the way to upwards of 10 billion barrels of new crude for America. Paving the road to this new inventory would provide employment for as many as 735,000 people – at no cost to the government.
Congress could open the oil-rich areas off shore, where as much as 85 billion barrels of oil is waiting for our use. Every new barrel produced provides new jobs for America – at no cost to the government.
Instead of choosing this perfectly logical course of action, the President, and his minions in the majority, chose to spend $159 billion to create 640,000 jobs.That’s $248,000 per job, for a job that typically pays much less than $100,000 per year, and in many cases, will last only a few months. How dumb is that? READ MORE

Incandescent bulbs will no longer be sold
This is another example of "Environment" being used to force us to buy products that we might not want. The CFCs do not last anywhere near as long as the package claims. The ones I bought from Home Depot started failing after just 1 month. Contrary to the package claims, they do NOT put out the same amount of light as the regular bulb of thus and such wattage; I checked with light meter.
Finally, CFCs are TOXIC! If they break, you get mercury vapor in your homes. And unless you dispose of them at special collection sites, the mercury goes into the water table at whatever landfill the bulbs and sent to, along with the toxic materials on the circuit board and the tiny radioisotope that initiates the lamp when switched on.

"We're in trouble in America," he told a packed room at the first national tea party convention in Nashville. "We're losing our moral bearings. We're losing our respect for the rule of law. You look around America today, and things are bad – and they're getting worse. We're broke. We're dispirited. We're scared."

The Sea Shepherd ship Steve Irwin joined the Sea Shepherd ship Bob Barker this morning at 0700 Hours (Sydney time). Both Sea Shepherd ships are now on the tail of the Japanese factory ship Nisshin Maru.
The Japanese fleet was running fast to the Northeast not knowing that the Steve Irwin was on a course of Southwest coming directly for them. With the fleet doing 15 knots, and the Steve Irwin doing 15 knots, the Steve Irwin and the whaling fleet closed the gap at 30 knots cutting the rendezvous time in half.
Calumet Specialty investigating cause of Louisiana explosion
Indianapolis-based Calumet Specialty Products Partners LP is investigating the cause of a Friday blast at its refinery in Shreveport, La., that damaged some nearby properties.
“It was a loud boom that broke windows on some nearby properties,” Liz Swaine, a spokeswoman for the refiner said. Workers began replacing broken glass Saturday and should be finished Monday, she said. “Anyone who calls in, we’ll send out a crew to assess and repair any damage.”
The company shut down the plant’s Belco unit, which scrubs pollutants from residual gases. The plant produces base and process oils, according to Calumet’s Web site.
There were no injuries and no residual fires related to the flash of fuel, which occurred at about 5:40 p.m. local time, she said. Calumet is also trying to determine whether it can use different environmental controls to maintain production at the refinery.
“We’re not sure yet of the longer-term picture,” she said.

(Visit CCFE's website) Cap and Trade is a Goldman Sachs and Enron Scam What Cap and Trade Will Do to Your Utility Bills – calculator Senate Bill Creates Cap-And-Trade for SO2, NOxSustainableBusiness.com - 5 hours ago A bi-partisan group of US Senators has introduced a legislation that would amend the Clean Air Act to create a cap-and-trade system. The catch is, it would not be a system for the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2). Rather, it would cap and reduce mercury emissions by 90% from coal-fired power plants and tighten national limits on emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). These are lofty goals, despite the fact that it sidesteps the elephant in the room. Sens. Tom Carper (D-Del.) and Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) introduced the legislation with co-sponsors Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Susan Collins (R-Maine), Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), Edward Kaufman (D-Del.), Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), Joe Lieberman (ID-Conn.) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine). The legislation establishes a nationwide trading systems for SO2 and NOX emissions. SO2 emissions would be reduced 80% by 2018. NOx emissions would be cut 53% by 2015. Mercury emissions would be reduced by EPA by utilizing the "maximum available control technology." READ MORE |
