MEXICAN MEDDLING IN US INTERNAL AFFAIRS

In a memo From VDARE, a commentary site on Latin America, Allan Wall writes, “Article 41 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations states that ‘it is the duty of all persons enjoying such privileges and immunities (diplomats) to respect the laws and regulations of the receiving State.’ Mexico is a stickler for enforcing the Vienna Convention in its own territory. But when it comes to Mexican diplomats in the United States, they constantly meddle in U.S. internal politics as it relates to immigration. And our own government allows it [and encourages it].” In a recent speech Mexican President Calderon berated Mexican diplomats for not being more aggressive in intervening on behalf of every jailed Mexican–especially illegal immigrants. Mexican historian and journalist Lorenzo Meyer quotes Calderon as saying, “it’s extremely important that Mexicans are able to continue migrating—-it’s the country’s escape valve. There’s no other way Mexico can produce enough jobs for all its working-age residents.” Nonsense. The problem in Mexico is corruption and over-regulation, not lack of business opportunities.

Calderon and George Bush both subscribe to a globalist agenda. Both endorse secret policies that foment a clash of cultures in the US so that increasing conflict will justify forging a North American Union as the “solution.” That’s the real reason why the administration doesn’t live up to its promises to secure the border.

Feds accused of gold-price manipulation

On January 25, 2008

Jerome Corsi, World Net Daily

The Wall Street Journal has agreed to publish a full-page ad in which the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee charges the U.S. government surreptitiously utilizes gold reserves to engage in international swaps and other market manipulations.

“Anybody Seen Our Gold?” is the title of the ad, which alleges U.S. gold reserves held at depositories such as Fort Knox and West Point may have been seriously depleted. GATA asserts U.S. gold reserves are being shipped overseas to settle complex transactions utilized by the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Treasury to suppress the price of the precious metal.

Where does Paul think he lives? America?

Who in this country would ever vote for Ron Paul?

It would be ludicrous to vote for a man who believes in our Constitution and has abided by it with every vote he has cast in Congress. It is a certainty that we would never elect a man who has never voted to raise taxes. And why would we ever want to restore the civil liberties that we have lost under the Bush administration?

I feel much safer knowing my phone and e-mail can be monitored by the government. And the fact that habeas corpus can be suspended makes me sleep better at night. Paul wants to put an end to our safety.

Good grief. Paul wants to get us out of Iraq. And he wants to stop us from meddling in the affairs of other countries. Does he think he lives in a free America? Worse, he wants a sound monetary policy as opposed to our current deficit spending.

Wouldn’t we be better off with Hillary or McCain in the White House? That way, we could be assured of a prolonged conflict in Iraq, an even larger national debt and feel safe — all at the same time.

‘Dr. No’ Blackout: Supporters Lying to Be Heard

In Media Bias Exposed, Ron Paul

From: Not Just a Campaign, It’s a Movement, by Alan Stang

Notice that our Communist media still treat Fred and Rudy as major candidates while they do their best to ignore Dr. No. In a classic example, the New York Times, which has assiduously promoted Communism since Walter Duranty, reported the Nevada results of all the candidates – even Rudy Who and CFR Fred – complete with pictures, except the man who took second with 14%.

The other day, in a discussion about conservatism on the air, I heard a caller ask Rush Limbaugh about Dr. No. How the caller got through the screener, I don’t know. Limbag stuttered, said he “profoundly disagreed” that Dr. Paul expressed conservative principles, hung up and went to break. That was it; there was not a syllable of argument that proved Dr. Paul wrong, just Limbag’s expression of profound disagreement.

Somebody else called Republican front man Hugh Hewitt. The caller told the screener he was for far leftist John McCain, but on the air he shouted that he was for Dr. Paul. Hewitt told the screener who blew it that his check would be docked $10 if that happens again. Of course, Hewitt was joking, about the $10, not about his desire to squelch Dr. No.

Maybe the editors at the Times are too busy buggering each other to be aware of this, but they and right wing Communist talk radio scumbags like Hannatwit are destroying their own credibility, a symptom of the fact that the Old Media are dying. Of course in their death throes they are more dangerous than ever. I submit that for Dr. Paul to do as well as he has in the face of all this is something of a political miracle.

Officials probe midair collision that killed man in car dealership

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Paint markings found on pieces of two planes that collided over suburban Los Angeles indicate the nose of one aircraft slammed into the middle fuselage of the other, according to a federal investigator.

Five people died in the accident in Corona, California, including a man on the ground who was killed when one plane’s engine crashed through the roof of a car dealership where he worked, said National Transportation Safety Board investigator Wayne Pollack.

Jim Cramer Calls For Investigation Of The Federal Reserve

From: Daily Paul

In light of yesterdays “emergency” display of free market principles, Jim Cramer, persistant stock market shill in his role on CNBC, gives this interesting perspective when interviewed elsewhere.

At the 2:22 mark of this interview he says:

“I actually want to call right here for an investigation of what the Fed did. An investigation of the institution, because I think the institution has been behind almost every boom and bust that we’ve had for many many years. And its really starting to [be the] time to look to see what this institution is all about.”

Now who else do we know that has been saying the exact same things? …

Dobbs Drops Ron Paul From Leadership Ability Questionaire

In Media Bias Exposed, Ron Paul

The questionaire is up right now at http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/lou.dobbs.tonight.

Consider that Ron Paul has beat Rudy Giuliani in every almost every state so far by a 2:1 or higher margin, and Giuliani still gets lots of air time—while Paul gets close to zero.

Charlotte Iserbyt writes:

How many of you watched LOU DOBBS TONIGHT… this evening, January 22, at 7 pm EST? If you did, you undoubtedly read the QUICK VOTE, but you were unable to vote since Lou Dobbs left Ron Paul out of his QUICK VOTE!

The question was: Which of the following candidates do you believe has the economic knowledge and leadership to guide the USA for the next four years?

The candidates he listed were:

Giuliani
2%

[…]

Total Votes: 20022

NO MENTION OF RON PAUL!

If I were Ron Paul, considering the treatment or perhaps “non-treatment” he has had by the establishment media, while other candidates have received coverage worth millions of dollars (FREE), I would quit the race for the Republican nomination and go Independent.

“When the Stock Market Crashes”

In Revival

Paul Proctor, News With Views

When the stock market crashes – and I mean really crashes, we won’t care about Britney Spears anymore. We won’t care about Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Amy Winehouse, Jessica Simpson, or anyone else in Hollywood struggling through their fame and misfortune.

When the stock market crashes, we won’t care anymore about the Oscars – what the nominees will be wearing on the red carpet – the writer’s strike – who crossed the picket lines – those pesky paparazzi or any of our once-favorite TV shows with or without scripts – no, not even American Idol.

Lightly cooked broccoli boosts the body’s ability to fight off cell damage

How broccoli can reduce risk of a heart attack

Eating steamed broccoli reduces the risk of a heart attack by boosting the body’s ability to fight off cell damage, researchers have found.

Previous studies have found people who eat broccoli, especially if raw or lightly cooked, are at lower risk of heart disease and some cancers.

…the brassica family of vegetables, including cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage and Brussels sprouts, provide antioxidants that prevent the build-up of free radicals.

Broccoli in particular contains sulforaphane, which triggers production of proteins that are part of the body’s cardiovascular defence system.

“Jane Roe” Endorses Ron Paul

In Revival, Ron Paul

About an hour ago Norma McCorvey, a.k.a “Jane Roe” from the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, formally endorsed Ron Paul at the Phoenix Park hotel in Washington. Why didn’t she endorse a frontrunner like Mike Huckabee? Thank the grassroots: She saw a newspaper ad in Nevada, bought by Paul supporters, using the analogy of the frog and the pot of boiling water to demonstrate what was happening to America. “It touched my heart.” That was three weeks ago, and McCorvey keynoted a pro-life Paul rally in Nevada on January 12th, but the campaign made the official announcement today before Paul spoke at the March for Life. McCorvey:

I support Ron Paul for president because we share the same goal, that of overturning Roe v Wade. Ron Paul doesn’t just talk about being pro-life, he acts on it. His voting record truly is impeccable and he undoubtedly understands our constitutional republic and the inalienable right to life for all. Ron Paul is the prime author of H.R. 300, which would negate the effect of Roe v. Wade. As the signor of the affidavit that legalized abortion 35 years ago I appreciate Ron Paul’s action to restore protection for the unborn. Ron Paul has also authored H.R. 1094 in Congress, which seeks to define life as beginning at conception. He has never wavered on the issue of being pro-life and has a voting record to prove it. He understands the importance of civil liberties for all, including the unborn.

“I think our people think we’re winning all the time, because we’re working in the sense that we’re trying to reverse the course of history. And our job is a lot different than just winning an election. We’re trying to reverse policies that have been against us for over 100 years: foreign policy, monetary policy, fiscal policy. And this is where we’re winning.”

Denmark Bank predicts Ron Paul presidency, U.S. depression

Denmark based Saxo Bank predicts Ron Paul presidency in 2008. According to Pravda.Ru, the bank predicts Paul will be the next president and that the U.S. economy will plunge into a depression prior to the election.

Saxo Bank says the U.S. economy will shrink by 25% and the Chinese economy will decrease by 40%. The economic downturn will come about as a result of the housing crash.

Ron Paul has been critical of the Federal Reserve and has blamed the Federal Reserve for causing the real estate bubble and crash. Paul has said that the loose monetary policy of the Fed had artificially inflated real estate prices which lead to the collapse.

Paul supports ‘Sound Money’ and opposes the Federal Reserve’s ‘Inflation Tax’ and says that he wants to prevent a dollar collapse.
