Posted on December 1, 2011 at 10:41pmI don’t get it, Glen Beck will not support the only person that supports his own views ( Ron Paul). Even when it comes to Israel, Ron Paul would support a war if it was done by the route of our constitution. The constitution Glen, you know the thing you have been standing for.

America is in real trouble but God will protect this country. We need another George Washington, Jefferson, Adams, or Madison.

I believe that we do have a Thomas Jefferson in our midst. He’s running for president in 2012! He’s proposed $1 Trillion in budget cuts in his first year in office, while the other candidates have only suggested some ‘trimming’ around the edges. He’s never voted to raise taxes, has never taken the congressional pension plan, gets more donations from active duty military than any other candidate, and when elected, will stand with we the people and take a yearly salary of $39,336, equal to the average US worker’s salary.
He is a true patriot and statesman and his name is Ron Paul! Visit http://www.ronpaul2012.com to find out more!

Posted on December 1, 2011 at 3:18pmThe Ron Paul Supporters have to be the least informed and least educated citizens in the US when it comes to foreign policy. Maybe you think we are just the most generous fools to ever become a world superpower? Maybe you think we just like tossing money at countries our people dont even like? Maybe you honestly believe that the our government just likes to “see it Rain”?
US money sent all over the globe has strings attached to it. We scratch their back with federal reserve notes, they scratch ours back with trade and business deals. Do yourself a favor and research the SUEZ Canal. Look up just how important a role it plays as a trade route in this modern money driven world. Then after you realize how foolish you were, go tell your Ron Paul supporting friends just how screwed up things would get if Ron Paul actually tried to implement the policies he is running on.
Its like Rush always says, to better understand the world, follow the damned money.

Posted on December 1, 2011 at 10:47pmYou‘re speechless because you’re clueless.
The Fed is the bank that finances all these foreign wars while the country is 15 trillion in debt. The Fed is the bank that gives the gigantic Robber Baron banks their loans at .01% interest. The Fed prints money and lends foreign nations into debt while simultaneously lending our nation into debt, because the Fed doesn’t belong to our nation. It is a private foreign bank that counterfeits paper.
Central banks like the Fed are the source of all the problems, tossing its fiat paper around the world. Ben Bernanke loves to make it rain. Alan Greenspan literally said there is no chance of default, because we can just print paper.
The Fed doesn’t belong to us, it isn’t “US money”. It’s Federal Reserve Notes. It simply SAYS “legal tender”.
Real US money is able to be cashed in for tangible assets like gold or silver.
We haven’t had that since Kennedy had silver certificates printed. Backed by something tangible, not “the full faith and credit of the United States Treasury”.
They blew his head off.

You definitely are a classical liberal; bereft of any knowledge or ratiocination.
Report Post »Pathetic.
First and foremost, that you believe you understand more about foreign affairs than Ron Paul, someone who has been in the military, and has received more in donations from military members than any any other presidential candidate, and also has been privy to inside intel only congressmen and women receive, promulgates your ignorance to the world, ad nauseam.
You state that we are lucky too be a superpower. So that means we are lucky to spread democracy around the world, using military means ? Are we are lucky to get involved in other sovereign countries affairs when we are so inept and corrupt that we can’t mange our own country ?
A neo-con believes we should spread democracy globally. Are you a neo-con ?
Rush is.
So if China was the dominant military superpower, you would be okay with them spreading communism, since they were the “lucky”ones ?
Ron Paul advocates are the most educated and intelligent, overall.
Do yourself a favor.
Look up the Federal Reserve act of 1913 and the Emergency Banking act of 1933.
The federal reserve is a PRIVATE bank that loans America Money to stay solvent.
All your tax money goes to pay on old debts as we borrow more to stay solvent.
Look up Fiat Currency while you edify yourself.
Also look up executive order #11110. Something that Ron Paul would continue.
If you want to fix the country,
END the FED.

Posted on December 1, 2011 at 11:24pmFederal Reserve Notes (FRNs) are unsigned checks written on a closed
account. FRNs are an inflatable paper system designed to create debt through
inflation (devaluation of currency). when ever there is an increase of the
supply of a money substitute in the economy without a corresponding increase
in the gold and silver backing, inflation occurs.
Prior to 1913, most Americans owned clear, allodial title to property, free
and clear of any liens or mortgages until the Federal Reserve Act (1913)
“Hypothecated” all property within the federal United States to the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve, -in which the Trustees (stockholders) held
legal title. The U.S. citizen (tenant, franchisee) was registered as a
“beneficiary” of the trust via his/her birth certificate. In 1933, the
federal United States hypothecated all of the present and future properties,
assets and labor of their “subjects,” the 14th Amendment U.S. citizen, to
the Federal Reserve System.
This has been going on for over eighty years without the “informed
Report Post »knowledge” of the American people, without a voice protesting loud enough.
Now it’s easy to grasp why America is fundamentally bankrupt.

Posted on December 3, 2011 at 12:01amVMAN; LOL, Sorry to throw a wrench into your perspective but, I can trade federal reserve notes for more tangible Gold and Silver. What do you think companies like Goldline expect to be paid in for their Gold? Non-Hybrid Seeds?
Let me make this clear, without the federal reserve, we cannot print money and thus take on debt. Debt in a nations economy is a trial of balance. If you cannot take on debt you cannot fund your nations wars and protect your interests at home and abroad. To much debt will cripple your nation because you will not be able to take on anymore debt and thus fail to fund any of your nations endeavors and risk economic and social collapse.
This burden and responsibility of this system is part of what it means to be a world super-power. Back to my SUEZ example; We give egypt “free money” and US flagged ships including warships can be expedited through the SUEZ.
We are that guy, the World Leader. Your boy Ron Paul’s policies would make us give up that position leaving the world at the mercy of the the up and coming China.
BTW, Taxes should have gone up and not been cut by George Bush. If you have extra expenditures like a war going on, you need more taxes to pay for it. If you spend more money you gotta take more in.

Posted on December 3, 2011 at 12:19amProbIemSoIver; I kind of feel Bad for you.
You basically ignored my post and the points I made and decided to focus on the fact that I attacked Ron Paul. Then you started to belt out all of Ron Pauls talking points concerning the Fed. This is the thing about Ron Paul, the promises he makes has made him a legion of fanatical followers who just dont understand that the man is unelectable. He’s just an old, poorly spoken, libertarian politician who has absolutely zero foreign policy experience.
Which brings me to one of the most disturbing points you made; “you believe you understand more about foreign affairs than Ron Paul, someone who has been in the military, and has received more in donations from military members than any any other presidential candidate, and also has been privy to inside intel only congressmen and women receive…”
The way you tried to sell this point reminds of Amway sales reps trying to hawk their garbage making assinine points that somehow ring familiar to what you posted. I have friends who have served in the Military, one is a naval officer, and they knows very little about how the US operates in it’s world affairs beyond military strikes. Having been in the military does not mean they are good at foreign affairs. More in donations from the military also does not imply that Ron Paul is strong on Foreign policy. I have no idea what you could mean about that secret knowledge congress gets that we simple folk are not privy to.

Posted on November 29, 2011 at 8:45pmWe are witnessing the engineered destruction not only of our country, but the World itself. The problem is not “capitalism.” It is Government, more precisely Central Governments which do not have limited roles in society. Our Constitution provides for a very limited role of the Central Government, but ever since Wilson the Constitution has been increasingly ignored. Virtually all of the chaos we see and will see is brought about by non-limited Central Governments, intent on buying votes and power. The problem is not capitalism. The problem is Progressivism.

Posted on November 29, 2011 at 11:25amProfessor Milner from Carnegie Melon Univ called TARP as fraud in Oct.2008 and even forced Krugman to take his side, for one appearence. Now it is clear that just like Morganthau, buddies Bernanke and Nobel Prize winner Krugman never had any clue.
Milner knew from his work in Chile and Sweden or Finland.
The whole thing was a rescue of the Gov’t currency system protecting the banks that bring money into circulation for the government as there had already been a run on the Banks like Wachovia (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-28/secret-fed-loans-undisclosed-to-congress-gave-banks-13-billion-in-income.html)
Same thing happened before in 1987 (www.amazon.com/Black-Monday-Market-Catastrophe-October/dp/1587982145), but it was Bosky watchers who caused the run.
Bosky found weakness in People, but we discovered one day that our entire system had become a Zombie Economy.
Any way you look at it, whether it was the legalization of CDS’s at AIG, or the legalization of mixing bad loans with good ones to make MBS’s by and for Fannie and Freddie which would failunder CDS pressure and selling them all over the world, or the exportation of 200 years of America’s production capital to therefore eliminate jobs of people who could in the past or presently wanted to pay their mortgage by working, IT IS THE CONGRESS’ FAULT.
They legislated immorality, and made America a Zombie State where speculation is rewarded over human productivity.
