In the day when most people are in The Matrix (walking backwards, thinking they’re actually walking forwards), this may be our reality once we break out of the trance — shining as bright lights in this ever darkening world.
I often think of it as swimming upstream, which I had a dream about once. The people were in the river flowing by me as I was cruising upstream, no problem. In the dream it was easy, practically effortless. But I think effortlessness can only happen when we are 100.00% determined walk fully in Love, abiding 100.00% in the Vine (John 15) — no ifs ands or buts all in Jesus — His ways all my days.
May we be ONE in Him (John 17). Then it will really be a piece of cake.
And many will do 180s to join us in walking forward, together with us, grounded in Love.

Gold and silver suffered big losses this week, but not because of a change in market fundamentals. It was because the commodities exchange sharply reduced the extent to which speculators can acquire gold or silver contracts with borrowed money instead of cash. Thousands of speculators had to sell a portion of their holdings to raise the money to protect the balance. This sudden dump caused a sharp decline in price. Investors who lost money when Wall Street crashed last week also had to sell gold and silver (if they held any) to cover their leveraged losses in stocks and bonds. [The only people hurt were speculators who play the market with borrowed money. Investors with cash did exceedingly well. Now that the sell off is complete, the price of gold and silver once again will move upward as a mirror image of the decline in the purchasing power of the dollar and other fiat currencies.] SF Gate 2011 Sep 26 (Cached)
So everyone knows, I like Michael. No doubt he means well and often does good, but…
Michael Moore leads a lot of people astray by not going deep enough in his investigations, ignoring and even demonizing many of the real problem solvers and solutions, and by giving false hope for ideas that can’t work. But he’s done a lot of good things. And I think this stand that he is finally at least agreeing to is a very good thing worth noting.

Key Points:
GLENN GREENWALD: Let’s begin with the fact Anwar al-Awlaki is a U.S. citizen. He was ordered assassinated by the President of the United States without presenting any evidence of any kind as to his guilt, without attempting to indict him in any way or comply with any of the requirements of the Constitution that say that you can’t deprive someone of life without due process of law. The president ordered him killed wherever he was found, including far away from a battle field, no matter what it was he was doing at the time. And if you’re somebody who believes that the president of the United States has the power to order your fellow citizens murdered, assassinated, killed without even a shred of due process, without having to have charged him with a crimes or indict him and prove in a court he’s actually guilty, then you’re really declaring yourself to be as pure of an authoritarian as it gets. Remember that there was great controversy that George Bush asserted the power simply to detain American citizens without due process or simply to eavesdrop on their conversations without warrants. Here you have something much more severe. Not eavesdropping on American citizens, not detaining them without due process, but killing them without due process, and yet many Democrats and progressives, because it’s President Obama doing it, have no problem with it and are even in favor of it. To say that the President has the right to kill citizens without due process is really to take the constitution and to tear it up into as many little pieces as you can and then burn it and step on it.
* * *
The government began claiming that it wasn’t just his messages and his ideas that were bothering them and making them want to kill him, but the fact he started to have an operational role in various plots, such as the attempt by Abdulmutallab to detonate a bomb in a jet over Detroit over Christmas. They claim that he was involved in the attack by Nidal Hasan on the Fort Hood base that killed 14 American service members. The problem with that is that, there’s been no evidence presented that he’s actually been involved in any of those plots. He is not been indicted or charged. If he has been involved in those plots, then the solution is to charge him with those crimes, bring him before a court of justice, and prove his guilt; not simply to order him killed as though the President is judge, jury, and executioner.
* * *
Right,well, one of the bizarre aspects of this is that media and government reports have tried to sell Awlaki is some kind of grand terrorist mastermind. There’s even lots of articles you can find online and major publications describing him as the new Bin Laden. The United States government needs a terrorist mastermind to replace Bin Laden to justify this type of endless war that President Obama, the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize winner, is insisting on not just continuing, but escalating. And for a while, Awlaki was the person to going to serve that function. But, the problem is, if you the read experts in Yemen, like Gregory Johnson and others, they mock the idea Awlaki was some kind of a leader of Al Qaeda and even question whether he had any operational role at all in any of these plots. He was clearly a cleric who developed some audience and was popular, particularly among English-speaking Muslim youth because of his ability to communicate with them. But, the idea that he was some high up in Al Qaeda or this is a blow to the operational capability of Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula is absolutely ludicrous. And if you read Yemen experts, you’ll see that that’s true. The problem is that American political culture is such that evidence doesn’t make a difference. Trials and due process are very pre-9/11. What we believe is that if the president stands up and says, someone is a terrorist, that’s all we need to know; they are therefore there are guilty because the leader has accused him of being that, and as long as the Aides then go and leak to the media, which they have done, that he played a significant operational role and was a big Al Qaeda leader, we won’t need to see evidence. We’ll just stand up and blindly click our heels and accept it’s true, and then cheered the fact he’s been murdered based on as unproven claims.
* * *
Well, one thing that is obvious, is that voting for Democrats as opposed to Republicans doesn’t help. In fact, if you read The New York Times article from 2010 confirming that Awlaki is on the hit list, it makes clear that there’s been no instances where George Bush ordered American citizens targeted for assassination, that this is extraordinary and perhaps an unprecedented step under the Democratic president. What people in the Arab world did, when their leaders did things like imprison them, let alone kill them, and their fellow citizens without trials, is they went out into the streets and protested and demanded that it stop. It’s hard to see how voting for one of these two parties is going to end these extraordinary excesses in violations of the constitution; it clearly doesn’t. Something outside of that system is necessary to address it. That’s been proven. So, I think if Americans cared about the constitutional rights the[y] pretended to care about under George Bush, Democrats in particular, they would be very vocally protesting and objecting to this. But, the problem is that, the opportunity to use these issues as a means to undermine Republican politicians is now gone, and so, many people who, three years ago, were pretending to care about these things, no longer do. So, the question that American citizens have to ask themselves, is whether they believe in the principles of liberty and rights that they have learned were protected by the Constitution? That’s just a piece of paper—-the Constitution—-it cannot protect those rights, only the citizenry can ensure that those rights are not trampled on; and the question is whether citizens actually believe in those.

Uploaded by TheAlexJonesChannel on Oct 1, 2011
Tonight’s Friday, September 30 edition of the Infowars Nightly News features an in-depth special report AIRING AT 7PM CENTRAL on the turning tide of water fluoridation across the Western world, with nearly 250 cities across the United States opting out of the mass-medication scheme once touted as one of the 10 greatest health achievements in the 20th Century. A special report filed by Alex Jones will show never-before-seen undercover footage shot at the Austin Water Treatment Facility showing the process of adding the corrosive and highly toxic chemical to the water supply. Further, our reporters speak with people on the street to get their take on the controversial practice that has garnered many highly-credible critics as public awareness grows. Government agencies are included in this, as many have now warned that fluoride levels must be reduced to decrease the risk of dental fluorosis, which most greatly affects developing children. Now, a new Material Safety Datasheet (MSDS) issued by Mosaic, one of the largest suppliers of hydrofluosilicic acid has also admitted the dangers posed by the industrial waste-product it sells to water treatment facilities.

Uploaded by TheAlexJonesChannel on Oct 1, 2011
During the news blitz, Infowars Nightly News discusses top al Qaeda operative and CIA double-agent Anwar al-Awlaki, who was reportedly killed by a predator drone in Libya. Documents now famously prove that he dined at the Pentagon with top brass just months after 9/11, despite being connected to at least three hijackers and being interviewed by the FBI multiple times. Awlaki has since emerged as a key link between dozens of alleged terror plots inside the U.S. and abroad, including the Ft. Hood shootings, the Underwear Bomber, shoebomber Richard Reid and more.
INFOWARS NIGHTLY NEWS – Anwar Al-Awlaki, CIA lackeyMeanwhile, one Rezwan Ferdous has been arrested after an alleged plot to attack the Capitol and Pentagon buildings with a remote controlled model airplane carrying explosives that were ADMITTEDLY supplied by the FBI in a sting operation. Like literally dozens of other foiled terror plots, the FBI provocateured the suspects into action, including supplying them with bomb making materials or explosives, as the case may be. Even Fox News host Geraldo Rivera called out these repeated sting actions used to scare the public into believing the al Qaeda-terrorism threat is on-going as ‘bogus.’ This latest case appears to be little different, though no one was killed, unlike the 1993 World Trade Center bombing which leaked recording prove was also set-up and goaded-on using FBI informants.

World Affairs Brief, September 30, 2011 Commentary and Insights on a Troubled World. Copyright Joel Skousen. Partial quotations with attribution permitted. Cite source as Joel Skousen’s World Affairs Brief (http://www.worldaffairsbrief.com)
SIGNS OF ECONOMIC COLLAPSE: IF, WHEN AND HOW BAD?
When big insider banks like Goldman Sachs start shorting the markets in a big way, and advise their high roller clients via private letter to do the same, you can bet the market s are going to take a beating in October. Puts shorting the S&P 500 are at a record high for October which indicates that a lot of big money is predicting a huge fall in global stocks soon. Certainly, the fundamentals concur that stocks are overpriced and that interest rates are artificially low compared to real inflation. Are we on the cusp of a major depression? Let’s see.
The deepest and least solvable crisis is, of course, the collapsing dominoes from sovereign debt. Every nation on earth, except for a few whose abundant oil income exceeds expenditures, is heavily overextended and none can or will pay back the huge sovereign debt they have accumulated. At least a half dozen countries require quarterly bailouts from other nations in order to pay back debt issues as they come due. Ukraine is the latest country to engage in funny accounting to fund their latest debt payment. Next time they too will need a bailout.
The Wall Street Journal reports on a copy they received of Goldman’s pessimistic letter to its biggest clients: “In a 54-page report sent to hundreds of Goldman’s institutional clients dated Aug. 16, Alan Brazil–a Goldman strategist who sits on the firm’s trading desk–argued that as much as $1 trillion in capital may be needed to shore up European banks; that small businesses in the U.S., a past driver of job production, are still languishing; and that China’s growth may not be sustainable.” Others are warning about a Chinese crash as well.
Michael Snyder reacts to that by saying that “Goldman Sachs is doing it again. Goldman is telling the public that everything is going to be just fine, but meanwhile they are advising their top clients to bet on a huge financial collapse [that’s a bit of an exaggeration. Goldman is preparing for a major financial crisis, not a collapse].
“Perhaps most startling of all is what the report has to say about the debt problems of the United States and Europe. ‘Solving a debt problem with more debt has not solved the underlying problem. In the US, Treasury debt growth financed the US consumer but has not had enough of an impact on job growth. Can the US continue to depreciate the world’s base currency? [Sounds like Goldman is listening to Ron Paul while repudiating him politically].’
“The report also goes into great detail about the financial crisis in Europe. Brazil writes about how the euro is headed for trouble and about how dozens of financial institutions in Europe could potentially be in danger of collapse [a threat which the PTB intend to use to pressure EU voters into giving more power to the ECB to issue Euro-wide Bonds].
“The following is how Business Insider summarized the advice that Brazil gave in the report regarding how to make money off of the impending collapse in Europe….
* Buy a six-month put option on the Euro versus the Swiss Franc, thus betting the Euro will drop against the Franc (the Franc being the currency that an official Goldman report recently referred to as the most overvalued in the world)
* Buy a five-year credit default swap on an index of European corporate debt.
“This is a bet that some of these companies will default, and your insurance policy, the CDS, will pay off [even though backed by nothing except promises to pay]. This is so typical of Goldman Sachs. They will say one thing publicly and then turn around and do the total opposite privately.”
Snyder concludes by saying what increasing numbers of commentators on the Right are saying: “There is a tremendous amount of fear in the global financial community right now [true]. As I wrote about the other day, the financial world is about to hit the panic button. Things could start falling apart at any time [depends on what he means by falling apart–a total collapse is not going to happen by economic means alone]. Most of these big banks will not admit how bad things are publicly, but privately there is a whole lot of freaking out going on [true only as to whether or not the FED is going to keep bailing them out. The banks are now totally dependent on external forces].”
For example a lot of hedge fund managers are set to lose their jobs. Some of the largest hedge funds are down 25% for the year. Today, according to the Wall Street Journal, “marks a deadline for investors in many hedge funds with monthly and quarterly liquidity to say they want their capital back.” Most of them are indicating they want to cash out rather than roll over into another hedge.
That’s the same reason Greece needs quarterly bailouts–because most investors don’t want to renew their investments in Greek bonds at any interest rate. Who would blame them? Greece simply doesn’t have the money to pay off these maturing bond issues and never will. In order to avoid establishing a precedent of default, the ECB is desperate to keep engineering short term bailouts until the European PTB can engineer a change in EU rules to allow the entire Union to create bonds guaranteed by all.
However, that plan suffered a major setback this week as the German constitutional court ruled this week that “no further fiscal powers may be surrendered to Europe without a new constitution and a popular referendum.”
But all this isn’t stopping the globalists in Europe from wringing as much money from their current powers to bail out other bankrupt nations. They will take it to the maximum. Thursday, the German lower house, the Bundestag, passed a bill to strengthen a bailout fund intended to help European countries deal with their debts. Stocks, looking for any justification for optimism, surged upward briefly.
As the Market Oracle of UK said, “It gives the EFSF [European Financial Stability Facility] carte blanche to carry out measures to save the euro, the insolvent countries and banks. The passage of legislation by Germany, which has already been passed by the Bundesrat (Senate) would leave Germany with no more say on the use or increase in funding just to save the euro, Greece and the other five countries, which is an impossible task at a cost of $4 to $6 trillion. All control passes to the EFSF and the ECB.” –another loss of sovereignty for Germans. More money for the EFSF solves the current liquidity crisis, but they won’t fix the solvency crisis.
This only settled the markets for a day. Today stocks dropped again with news that all these bailouts were adding to EU inflation. These short term fixes all have market consequences. European globalists realize that the semi-solvent nations in Europe are in no mood to go the next step–giving the ECB powers to issue EU-wide bonds–for which they will be liable, and so an even deeper crisis will be needed to drive them into giving the EU new powers.
This may well be the reason we are seeing the markets set up for short selling in October. Somebody obviously has given the word that a major market selloff is going to happen. That means it may be planned. If it goes deep enough, it may well be the crisis sufficient to drive European voters into accepting more EU powers to “fix” the problem with a new EU treaty.
Notice that US leaders (Obama and Treasury Sec. Geithner) are criticizing Europe for not taking dramatic steps and for moving too slowly. In reality, they know that Europe doesn’t have the same dramatic powers of the FED–so the criticism is offensive to European leaders. Its real purpose, of course, is to prepare the way for US-style solutions (more bailouts through bonding) when the crisis hits.
What does this mean for those in the United States? A big drop in the stock market does NOT mean that the economy will fully collapse. I think it will be a serious dip but not a permanent one. Obama has been sending out proposal after proposal to increase government stimulus in jobs and housing. Even go-along Republican leaders like John Boehner can’t go along because all conservative eyes are on the debt problem we face. This coming crisis may change that.
I can see a massive shakeout in the stock market (a big crisis) suddenly turning public opinion around and inducing them to believe government fear mongers that “we’ve got to inject more money into the economy” lest it collapse–the false solution. Why else would Ben Bernanke and Tim Geithner suddenly stop talking recovery and concentrate on dire warnings? I think they are setting us up for a crisis–not because they don’t have the power to inject more money and forestall it, but because they need something to stop the rising sentiment against the FED and deficit spending.
If they let the crisis go on long enough, it will doom Obama’s chances of reelection. But, if it is sufficiently sharp, Congress may relent early and agree to hand out more stimulus jobs and checks. Obama will then look like he “saved us” from collapse.
Investment guru Doug Casey is pessimistic: “With the exception of Ron Paul and Gary Johnson, the potential Republican candidates absolutely make my skin crawl. So, no, there is no help on the horizon. The U.S. government is spending about $1.5 trillion more this year than it takes in, and it is not going to cut that. In fact, foolish spending to bail things out will increase. And, worse than that, the Fed has artificially suppressed interest rates for three years. Interest accounts for roughly 2% of $15 trillion official national debt, or $300 billion per year. As interest rates inevitably rise, that interest amount will grow. At 12% – and I’m afraid they’ll have to go even higher than that – it would add another $1.5 trillion just in interest payments.
“I absolutely see no way out without a collapse of the U.S. currency and a total reordering of the U.S. economy.” Once again, the big question is when: now, later, or a lot later? All of those on the “collapse now” side of the debate don’t understand the powers of the conspiracy that controls our government.”
If they let the economy go down another notch and keep it there for the next couple of years, it means they intend to elect a controlled Republican to complete the manipulation of conservatives. We are at the point in this nation where everything Obama does will be met with conservative opposition, which is good. But if a false conservative leader gets in office and proposes something similar with a different name, most will be fooled and jump on board.
That is why the PTB seem determined to suppress Ron Paul’s candidacy and promote other controlled Republicans who are promoting some of Paul’s fiscal arguments against the FED but have no intention of following through. Only Ron Paul can be trusted to act with courage and not compromise.

A couple of weeks ago, I was honored to attend a private gathering of influential conservative leaders just outside Washington, D.C. While many differences of opinion were expressed on a variety of subjects, there was one subject on which every single attendee was unequivocally united: the US economy is soon going to tank! As one man said, “In a couple of years, these could be the ‘good old days.’” Another thing the august assembly was agreed on was that the only Presidential candidate in the two major parties who would actually have the guts to do what needs to be done is Congressman Ron Paul. And the national press corps (including FOX News) is doing everything in its power to make sure that the American people do not hear much of what Dr. Paul has to say for that very reason.
Neither the Democrat nor Republican parties in Washington, D.C., have any intention of addressing the real reasons why the American economy is on the verge of collapse. The only thing the two major parties–and the elites who dominate them–can see is the next election. The lust for power is the one thing that both the Donkeys and the Elephants share in common. And neither party is willing to disappoint their constituents who are feeding at the teat of that fat hog known as Washington, D.C.
Democrats want to extend Washington’s insatiable appetite for deficit spending in order to promote the Welfare State. And Republicans want to extend Washington’s insatiable appetite for deficit spending in order to promote the Warfare State. Conservative or liberal, hawk or dove, Christian or secularist, Democrat of Republican: they all are lining up at the back door of Uncle Sam’s kitchen begging for a handout!
Except for Ron Paul, no one is giving more than ten-second sound bites of lip service to what is necessary to conquering the real culprits of America’s economic malaise: expunging the fiat money system and returning America to hard money principles, dismantling that cabal of international criminals known as the Federal Reserve, returning America’s foreign policy to its constitutional parameters of non-interventionism, eviscerating those federal programs and entities not prescribed by the US Constitution, getting rid of the income tax, and taking the United States out from under the power and influence of the United Nations. No one else has the guts to even seriously talk about these issues, much less to actually do something about it! And if the “powers that be” successfully defeat Dr. Paul’s candidacy, it won’t matter to a tinker’s dam who gets elected President in 2012 (that is, unless a constitutionalist third-party candidate miraculously wins the Presidency)! Republican or Democrat, it will be business-as-usual. And that means this house of cards that these corrupt politicians and bankers have been playing with all these years is going to come crashing down. In fact, the signs are ubiquitous that the crash has already begun.
Writing for BlacklistedNews.com, Michael Snyder has recently produced two trenchant reports that show the handwriting on the wall for America’s financial future. Snyder begins this first report saying, “Goldman Sachs is doing it again. Goldman is telling the public that everything is going to be just fine, but meanwhile they are advising their top clients to bet on a huge financial collapse. On August 16th, a 54 page report authored by Goldman strategist Alan Brazil was distributed to institutional clients. The general public was not intended to see this report. Fortunately, some folks over at the Wall Street Journal got their hands on a copy and they have filled us in on some of the details.
“It turns out that Goldman Sachs secretly believes that an economic collapse is coming.”
Snyder concludes his report saying, “Sadly, the 54 page report mentioned above is right–we really are facing a global debt meltdown and we really are heading for an economic collapse.
“You aren’t going to hear the truth from the mainstream media or from our politicians because ‘keeping people calm’ is much more of a priority to them than telling the truth is.
“The debt crisis in the United States is unsustainable and the debt crisis in Europe is unsustainable. Right now we are in the calm before the storm, and nobody knows exactly when the storm is going to strike.
“But let there be no doubt–it is coming.

The FBI again thwarts its own Terror plot
The FBI has received substantial criticism over the past decade — much of it valid — but nobody can deny its record of excellence in thwarting its own Terrorist plots. Time and again, the FBI concocts a Terrorist attack, infiltrates Muslim communities in order to find recruits, persuades them to perpetrate the attack, supplies them with the money, weapons and know-how they need to carry it out — only to heroically jump in at the last moment, arrest the would-be perpetrators whom the FBI converted, and save a grateful nation from the plot manufactured by the FBI.
Last year, the FBI subjected 19-year-old Somali-American Mohamed Osman Mohamud to months of encouragement, support and money and convinced him to detonate a bomb at a crowded Christmas event in Portland, Oregon, only to arrest him at the last moment and then issue a Press Release boasting of its success. In late 2009, the FBI persuaded and enabled Hosam Maher Husein Smadi, a 19-year old Jordanian citizen, to place a fake bomb at a Dallas skyscraper and separately convinced Farooque Ahmed, a 34-year-old naturalized American citizen born in Pakistan, to bomb the Washington Metro. And now, the FBI has yet again saved us all from its own Terrorist plot by arresting 26-year-old American citizen Rezwan Ferdaus after having spent months providing him with the plans and materials to attack the Pentagon, American troops in Iraq, and possibly the Capitol Building using “remote-controlled” model airplanes carrying explosives.

As the missile hits the target and kills the person, he says “Goodnight princess”, adding “this is where you see he’s actually had the clothes ripped off him by the blast”.
He defends the decision to celebrate the deaths of Afghans. “People look at it and say you know… young lads are laughing at the enemy being killed,” he says. “Well, I don’t know if the Taliban do something similar but I’m sure they rejoice when they kill one of us.”
When asked by the interviewer in the film what he thinks goes through the head of a Taliban fighter when they see an Apache coming, WOII Farmer replies: “Hopefully a 30mm bullet”.
Later in the film, he is defiant about the moral consequences of war: “We’re out there do to a job. We’re not there to tickle the Taliban, we’re out there to hurt them because they have no qualms about hurting us.
“Of the engagements that I’ve taken part in… I have absolutely no dramas with it. None at all. I don’t really care whether they think it’s a fair fight. If they’re [the Taliban] gonna pick up a weapon and take us on, then best of luck to them.”
But peace campaigners have a different view. Mr Burgin said: “The fact that British soldiers are reduced to watching what are effectively snuff movies shows the complete failure of the project in Afghanistan. It’s nothing to do with democracy, but a failure of war that is trickling down and resulting in a mental degradation among ground troops.
“Afghanistan is a dreadful situation and it is no better than it was a decade ago.”

Herman Cain Describes Ron Paul Supporters’ Concerns As “Stupid”
Suggests Paul campaign is deliberately out to “nail” him
Steve Watson
Infowars.com
Sept 27, 2011

Businessman Herman Cain has made remarks somewhat unbecoming of a presidential candidate, declaring his annoyance at “stupid” questions continually put to him by Ron Paul supporters.
The former Godfather’s Pizza CEO, who is running for the GOP nomination on a broadly libertarian platform, seems to have a problem with Paulites’ concerns regarding the Federal Reserve.
“I get the same stupid question at almost every one of these events,” Cain writes in a forthcoming book “This is Herman Cain,” to be released in early October.
According to the Daily Caller, which has obtained an advance copy of the book, Cain claims that Paul’s supporters are “threatened by me” and are “trying to destroy me on the fact that I was once affiliated with” the Federal Reserve.
Cain even has his own conspiracy theory that Paul’s campaign is deliberately sending people out to Cain events to attempt to discredit him:
“I know it’s a deliberate strategy.” Cain writes, “How can a person randomly show up at a hundred events and ask the same stupid question to try to nail me on the Federal Reserve?”
Is Cain serious? Clearly he has no concept of the determination and reach of Ron Paul’s grassroots support base. Paulites are focused and unwavering, just as their chosen candidate has been for thirty plus years.
Ron Paul has warned his supporters for three decades and more about the dangerous of a fraudulent fractional reserve banking system in the hands of private central bankers, and no one can legitimately argue any longer that those concerns have not been justified. Why is it so hard for Cain to accept that every Ron Paul supporter would share the same concerns?
Paul’s supporters have argued that Cain is not serious about reigning in the power of the Federal Reserve over US monetary policy, pointing to the fact that he was chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City in 1995 and 1996.
While Ron Paul has continually pushed to audit the Fed, Cain seemingly does not believe an audit is necessary:
“I have said: ‘I don’t think you’re going to find anything to audit on the Federal Reserve.’” Cain writes. “But they (Ron Paul supporters) want you to believe that Herman Cain doesn’t want the Federal Reserve to be audited.”
“It’s really becoming annoying more than anything else.” Cain states.
Polls have consistently revealed that at least 75% of the American people want a full audit of the Fed, and the majority were against reconfirming Bernanke.
Bloomberg noted last December:
A majority of Americans are dissatisfied with the nation’s independent central bank, saying the U.S. Federal Reserve should either be brought under tighter political control or abolished outright, a poll shows.
Americans across the political spectrum say the Fed shouldn’t retain its current structure of independence. Asked if the central bank should be more accountable to Congress, left independent or abolished entirely, 39 percent said it should be held more accountable and 16 percent that it should be abolished. Only 37 percent favor the status quo.
In light of these facts, Cain seems totally out of touch with what voters core concerns are, especially libertarian leaning republican and independent voters. To describe questions over the Federal Reserve as “stupid” and “annoying” betrays a disconnect with the American people on the whole.
Furthermore, for Cain to insinuate that Ron Paul’s campaign is deliberately seeking to sabotage Cain’s own platform smacks of desperation and paranoia to say the least.

SIDENOTE: I love this!!! However, I personally see these Hebrew transliterations as distracting. They’re often red flags to the Hebrew roots movement, which is often dangerous (works of the Old Covenant law instead of being led by the Holy Spirit, God Himself, directly). But I like what they have done here. I love the forgiving/no vengeance terminology!!!
Wonderful!

Recently by Paul Craig Roberts: Stuck Pigs (and Presstitutes) Squeal
Have you ever before heard of the Haqqanis? I didn’t think so. Like Al Qaeda, about which no one had ever heard prior to 9/11, the “Haqqani Network” has popped up in time of need to justify America’s next war – Pakistan.
President Obama’s claim that he had Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden exterminated deflated the threat from that long-serving bogyman. A terror organization that left its leader, unarmed and undefended, a sitting duck for assassination no longer seemed formidable. Time for a new, more threatening, bogyman, the pursuit of which will keep the “war on terror” going.
Now America’s “worst enemy” is the Haqqanis. Moreover, unlike Al Qaeda, which was never tied to a country, the Haqqani Network, according to Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, is a “veritable arm” of the Pakistani government’s intelligence service, ISI. Washington claims that the ISI ordered its Haggani Network to attack the US Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, on September 13 along with the US military base in Wadak province.
Senator Lindsey Graham, a member of the Armed Services committee and one of the main Republican warmongers, declared that “all options are on the table” and gave the Pentagon his assurance that in Congress there was broad bipartisan support for a US military attack on Pakistan.
As Washington has been killing large numbers of Pakistani civilians with drones and has forced the Pakistani army to hunt for Al Qaeda throughout most of Pakistan, producing tens of thousands or more of dislocated Pakistanis in the process, Sen. Graham must have something larger in mind.
The Pakistani government thinks so, too. The Pakistani prime minister,Yousuf Raza Gilani, called his foreign minister home from talks in Washington and ordered an emergency meeting of the government to assess the prospect of an American invasion.
Meanwhile, Washington is rounding up additional reasons to add to the new threat from the Haqqanis to justify making war on Pakistan: Pakistan has nuclear weapons and is unstable and the nukes could fall into the wrong hands; the US can’t win in Afghanistan until it has eliminated sanctuaries in Pakistan; blah-blah.
Washington has been trying to bully Pakistan into launching a military operation against its own people in North Waziristan. Pakistan has good reasons for resisting this demand.
