ahmadPresident Obama says he refuses to “meddle” in Iran. Why not? He is clearly “meddling” in Israel, pressuring the Jewish people not to defend themselves from a new Hitler rising in the East. He is clearly “meddling” by pressuring Israelis not to continue developing and expanding their own neighbors in Jerusalem, their capital city? He is happy to “meddle” in pressuring the Israelis to divide Jerusalem, give away the West Bank and allow Islamic Radicals to establish a sovereign state in “Palestine.” Remind me why, then, President Obama is willing to “meddle” in the affairs of a truly democratic country such as Israel, and refuses to speak out with moral courage and clarity with regards to a tyrannical dictatorship in Iran beating, arresting, and killing innocent civilians.

To misunderstand the nature and threat of evil is to risk being blindsided by it. The U.S. was blindsided by Hitler’s move on Europe in 1939. We were blindsided by Pearl Harbor in 1941. By the Ayatollah Khomeini’s Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979. By Saddam’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990. By the 9/11 attacks just a few years ago. I believe we are increasingly in danger of being blindsided again. And the stakes couldn’t be higher.

How can the White House — and the Western alliance — not see the evil that is running Iran today? The Ayatollah Khamenei has called for Israel to be wiped off the map. He selected Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to be the president of Iran in 2005. He just re-anointed Ahmadinejad to serve another four years by rigging the recent elections. He and Ahmadinejad are fully committed to acquiring nuclear weapons, long-range ballistic missiles, destroying the U.S. and Israel, and bringing about the End of Days. They speak of it openly, as I document in my new book and will present in the documentary film we’re finalizing for release on 9/11 (see http://www.insidetherevolution.org/). Yet top officials in Washington refuse to truly and effectively confront Khamenei and Ahmadinejad. Rather, they keep pressuring Prime Minister Netanyahu to make dangerous concessions to Israel’s avowed enemies.

Meanwhile, Khamenei is threatening an even more bloody crackdown on the young Reformers crying out for freedom and justice. Ahmadinejad has been in Moscow building political and military alliances with Russia, China and the Islamic powers of Central Asia. And Iran’s chief Asian ally — North Korea — is threatening to conduct new nuclear weapons tests and may be preparing to test launch an ICBM into the Pacific next month that could threaten Hawaii.

Now, more than ever we need to pray for our leaders, that their hearts would be changed, that their eyes would be opened, that they would “do justice, and love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.” (Micah 5:8) We need to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. “Behold, He who keeps Israel neither will slumber nor sleep.” (Psalm 121:8) And we need to pray for the Lord to show His great love to all the people of the epicenter. “I will set My glory among the nations; and all the nations will see My judgment which I have executed and My hand which I have laid on them. And the house of Israel will know that I am the Lord their God from that day onward….I will not hide My face from them any longer, for I will have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel, declares the Lord.” (Ezekiel 39:21,22,29) Joel Rosenberg

obamahealthcareI hope you are all listening to this Dr. President of ours, telling us how we can live, eat, work, and play- all so he can pursue one of the planks of Communism- nationalized healthcare.

Government was never intended to dictate so much of our lives, but those of you who elected him asked for our very own Stalin. Is it that you really think government can tell you best how to live your lives, rather than deciding for yourselves?

Obama has come out and called his naysayers “wrong”, accusing them of “lying.” That reminds me of the kid on the playground- it’s only lying and wrong because it calls him to account, not because it isn’t actually. He also mentioned that raising our taxes to pay for his socialism wouldn’t drop donations. He says, “That’s just statistically untrue!” Statisically, America is THE most generous nation in the world because we don’t have forced charity. Obama and Biden prove this: Last year, Obama made over $4 million dollars in tax returns and gave only 5%. Biden gave less than 1%- not even $1,000! Factually, conservatives give mugh higher amounts than do liberals- and even that is going to have to change when Obama forces our charity, limiting the amount we have to freely give:

-Although liberal families’ incomes average 6 percent higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, 30 percent more to charity than the average liberal-headed household.- Real Clear Politics

-People who reject the idea that “government has a responsibility to reduce income inequality” give an average of four times more than people who accept that proposition.- Real Clear Politics

These liberals like to claim 46 million uninsured! Let’s disect the facts: a quarter of that 46 million are covered by Medicaid or SCHIP,  another 20% are illegal citizens, the other third are significantly over the poverty level- which leaves about 10 million, or 2 % of the population. 2% and you want to raise my taxes? Income redistribution.

He mentions that it is tax-neutral- wrong! This will cost us all- he admitted it- $1 trillion dollars! As he said, “That is real money.” Notice how he quickly side-stepped that? How can you hear the truth above the roar?

He tries to emphasize that those of us who like our insurance can keep it- wrong again. Jobs who provide insurance will be penalized by higher taxes, or will get horrible rates from the insurance companies, and will no longer be able to provide health insurance. It will become such that we can only get decent rates from going to a single-payer system- BAM! Nationalized healthcare! Don’t let him tell you that it is successful in other countries- any time government gets involved and runs something, you’re just asking for tyranny.

You are guaranteed an increase in euthanasia, infanticide, and abortion as the worth of life is placed in the hands of government to decide. Do you think the government is going to shell out millions of dollars to care for someone diagnosed with a probable terminal cancer? Why would they, they think, they are just delaying the inevitable. Now imagine that person is your son or daughter. Or like in Britain where they aborted 20 babies over an 8 year period for having a club foot- a correctable condition. The government’s picking up the tab, down goes the value of life. Not to mention that people in Canada are waiting years, not days, to have surgeries such as gallbladder removals. And, people, this is NOT free health insurance. We pay for it through our taxes which they will silently raise.

A little off the subject, but worthy of noticing: My husband just noticed at 7-11 that Monster Energy Drinks are now included in the EBT program. You can now buy Monster with your food stamps. Like my husband said, “I don’t want to pay for you to have a Monster, I want to pay for ME to have a Monster!” Gotta love our government!

israelTo:The Honorable Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
 
From: A Chrisian Zionist who loves Israel
 
Sir,
 
I write to send you support, prayers, and well-wishes.
 
The mounting pressure from the international community to secede rightful Israeli land and compromise your national security is appalling. How a world full of kings and rulers think they have the right to dictate your foreign policy and pressure you into what is most politically expedient for them is abhorent.
 
I encourage you, Mr. Prime Minister, to lead your nation according to your G-d-given wisdom, talents, and discernment. To make authoritative decisions according to what is truly best for your nation and her people, without succumbing to international appeasement.
 
“And who knows but that you were placed in this royal position for such a time as this.” Your people voted for and are looking to you to decide their future in their own land and put their trust in you that you would fulfill their best interests, and not President Obama’s agenda, or any of your Arab neighbors.
 
Remember your very own King David, who trusted in, not the might of men, but the power of G-d to save them from trauma and affliction. The L-rd, our G-D, is not a powerless entity, who’s power was trumped at any point. Of all the nations, what nation other than yours can claim a high, Holy promise that HE WILL DELIVER YOU, but if you put your faith in Him and no mortal man.
 
Dearest Prime Minister, we Christians believe in you and believe for you and our prayers and petitions are ever sent to His Holy Throne on your behalf. Believe and watch the L-rd move! Amen!
 
I leave you with these words: Zechariah 4:6, “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the L-rd of hosts.”
 
To Zion, where G-d has made an everlasting covenant and placed His name FOREVER,

jerusalembassyThe Washington Times’ James Robbins writes:

Late on Friday The Washington Times’ Christian Bourge obtained a copy of Presidential Determination 2009-19, latest in a series of pro forma memos to the Secretary of State entitled “Suspension of Limitations Under the Jerusalem Embassy Act.” This determination is a legally required waiver under said act to continue to delay the May 31, 1999 deadline for moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.  

Nearly identical memos like this have been issued every six months for the last decade. Standard procedure, no big deal, right? Well in the Bush years the memo contained the sentence,

“My Administration remains committed to beginning the process of moving our embassy to Jerusalem.”

The Obama team has edited that passage out. This explains the Friday evening release. Congress should revisit the Jerusalem Embassy Act and remove the loophole that has allowed this charade to continue for ten years. Meanwhile the president should explain exactly what his policy is on this issue, and why he is not committed to beginning the process of moving the embassy.

More proof that our anti-Israel president is planning on dividing Israel’s Holy City to hand out to a mythical people. Hooray.

tillerThe headlines are screaming! One could not escape the breaking news of the day: Child killer George Tiller was shot and killed today.

One would ask, “Well, are you advocating for the violence against Tiller?” My answer is a profound, “No!” But it is our president’s answer that brings me to such outrage.

No matter how much we disagree on the topic of abortion, Obama says, “There is no excuse for such a heinous act.”

Heinous?

“Heinous: hatefully or shockingly evil”

Let me let my readers decide which sounds more “heinous”…

A man is shot and removed from life support. Horribly wrong? Yes. Sinful? Yes. Tragic? Probably. But heinous?

Intact D&X surgery (a nice way of saying, “How to “legally” murder a baby a day before it is due.”- which Tiller did regularly):

1. First, the cervix is dilated

2. The baby’s feet are pulled out so that the head is still in the uterus (this way it is not “technically” alive! Ha!)

3. Scissors are then inserted in the back of the baby’s skull (Tiller would stab a baby in the back of the head)

4. Then the brain and the material inside the skull is evacuated- a nice way of saying they vacuum out the baby’s brains to decrease the size of it’s head for easier delivery.

Nurses that were present have testified that these babies legs were wiggling outside the mother, until the stabbing took place- then the legs would stiffen and then drop.

I almost can’t type this- I have tears as I do. But it needs to be said.

Now- you tell me, which is the REAL heinous act?

Obama is against heinous acts? Great! Then why is he not speaking out against this vile procedure and coming out in a show of support of the man who made his living performing baby murder?

By the way- he was murdered during church. Any church that would give this man a haven and allow such evil to penetrate it’s walls is NO true church! God’s judgment will be upon them, too! And for those “Christians” reading this: Just because he was in church does not mean he went to Heaven. Let this serve as a warning! You cannot live a duplicitous life. You are not saved just because you go to church. “Be sure, your sin will find you out…for the wages of sin is death!” Jesus was not pleased with this man’s evil. The blood of the innocents cried out to God for vengeance- as did Abel’s blood. And Cain was accursed. This story is no different.

God will deal with the man that killed him. That was not pleasing either- and I pray for him to repent. But God will not let Tiller’s kind of evil remain. For those of you who perform abortions or who believe they are acceptable or who voted for the apostate that resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave who’s abortion views are more liberal than many even on the far left- “Be sure your sin WILL find you out!”

And to Obama, be warned. God sees you and when He decides to exact judgment- it could be much like Herod, who was instantly eaten with magots and died. God is warning you to repent and be saved!

Father, may Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

obamafootinmouthSome of the most double minded sayings of this new century are: “I support the troops, but not the war”; “I am against abortion, but for the woman’s right to choose an abortion”; “I believe that Christians, Jews and Muslims all worship the same god”; and “the United States is not at war with Islam. In fact, our partnership with the Muslim world is critical in rolling back a fringe ideology that people of all faiths reject.” All of these have been uttered by the man who now occupies the Oval Office and the last one is a direct quote before the Parliament of Turkey. Facts are: The leaders of Islam have called for the complete destruction of America and Israel; they have declared war on America and Israel.

 The man who now occupies the Oval Office went on to say, “We seek broad engagement based upon mutual interests and mutual respect. We will listen carefully, bridge misunderstanding, and seek common ground. We will be respectful, even when we do not agree. And we will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over so many centuries to shape the world for the better – including my own country. The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans.” We must ask: Can there be mutual interest and common ground with those who seek to destroy you? How can the so-called Islamic faith be appreciated when it foments death wherever it takes root?
 
But worse, how can an American president ever claim that the so-called Islamic faith shaped the United States for the better? This is sheer disillusionment. Were the Founding Fathers born from or converted of Islam? Did Islam stop capturing Africans and selling them into slavery? Did Islam advance health and medicine in America? Was Islam the driving spirit behind entrepreneurship and free enterprise? Did Islam suffer the rights of women to vote? Did Islam stand for a free and independent Israel? Did Islam spread in our prisons and contribute to crime against Americans? Did Islam perpetrate terrorist attacks killing innocent Americans? Where did Islam shape America for the better?
 
It is one thing to try to improve relations that have been damaged over the years. It is yet another to make statements that not even those who are hearing them believe to be true. But the same concepts with this man hold consistent. This is the man who believes America can spend its way out of debt. He believes that free enterprise can be saved by nationalization of industry. And he believes that Islam—who kills the innocent, enslaves women and children, and sells drugs to fund the spreading of its religion–shaped America for the better. James 1:8 says, “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” And Jesus said in Matthew 24:4, “Take heed that no man deceive you.”

roaring-bear“Obama tries to “boost” relations with Russia”, the headlines are screaming!

 

This after Obama sends a letter to Russia offering the relinquishing of our missile defense program in exchange for their increased pressure on a nuclear Iran.

There is nothing wrong with “peacemaking” efforts in and of themselves, afterall, who wouldn’t embrace peace? Obama emphasised the strain on the relationship between Russia and the United States caused by “the last administration.” Just like everything else, right? It’s all Bush’s fault. The Biblical flood, the Bubonic plague, all caused by this Christian from Texas.

The left is unapologetically un-patriotic. The one theme the left never seems to comprehend in there never-ending quest to appeasement- apologizing for the big, bad bully America has always been to rogue nations who’s human rights violations are too numerous to count, is the concept that we are not in the same kind of fight that WW II was. That was a power-hungry mob of evil dictators, easily overcome by pressure from the international communities. But we are now in a war of ideologies.

The idea that this “strained” relationship is Bush’s fault is laughable. I wonder if it could have at all been because they decided to unfairly invade Georgia and proceeded to ignore all pressure to retreat- breaking numerous international laws and exerting tyrannical force over a neighboring country.

Another relevent cause to the strain is the fact that Russia has ignored all nuclear arms laws in regards to Iran and has persisted in selling them enrichment materials, despite Iran’s promise to “wipe Israel off the map.” They are laughing in the face of the UN when questioned and encouraged to stop.

The strain is through no fault of their own. The left has changed faces, but it has not changed it’s methods. During the Reagan years, Reagan put extreme pressure on Gorbachev, citing the famous, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.” Shortly after, Gorbachev did, in fact, “tear down <that> wall”, because he saw that the US was not going to back down and would be willing to use whatever force necessary to see that that violence against neighboring countries and oppression would end.

To prove how twisted the liberal religion is, Gorbachev received Time Magazine’s “Man of the Century”  for his “kindess” to the people for bringing down the Berlin wall and President Reagan, a conservative, has been the object of their scourn and critcism ever since.

The point is, we cannot maintain our presence in the world by making apologies for being a superpower. Some on the left would argue that we have exerted unnecessary force to hold on to our “power,” but they would be falsly representing this great nation that has brought aid, freedom, and diplomacy to the world around us.

I agree with the concept of communicating with The Big Bear, but it is necessary that we are postured with power and dignity in the face of a regime just looking for weakness. We must demand that they comply to stop supporting Iran and the terrorist cells it father’s or we will react. We are America- don’t mess with us!

nazi-soldiers“A mind anchored in God’s word won’t compromise, but when that anchor is removed, the current of “change” can carry that mind anywhere.” (Quotations mine)

I am unapologetically Christian. And not one of these ever-forming “New Age” Christians, emerging in an attempt to forever change the face of Christianity. I will provide more emphasis on this subject in a later post.

But it is important to note that I do filter my viewpoints on political policies through Scripture. 2 Timothy tells us “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” My thoughts, beliefs, and political philsophies are not my own, rather they represent the heart of the God that made me. And the truth to which I refer, is to the same truth to which Jesus was referring when he said, “For this reason I was born and for this reason I came into the world, to testify to the truth.”

It is not enough to hold to any form of opinion if that opinion is not based in truth. Then it is whimsical at best, deceptive at worst. In order to gain the trust of those to whom I am blessed to speak to in this, my virtual “pulpit”, you have my commitment to bring truth, by the grace of God, in a world spinning with deception.

 The aforementioned quote represents a true, but harsh reality. That a mind who is open to wherever the current trend takes him is in serious danger of being carried away when the under-current becomes too strong. And despite the hearts that have, by this time, woken up, and realized what we are seeing happen in this nation, those souls who cast the vote in Obama’s direction are joining the rest of us in an unsettling knowledge that the damage he is inflicting is irreperable, again, but for prayers and petitions made by God’s elect and His supreme decision to show mercy on this nation.

In the book of Jonah, we are told of a prophet of God who was asked by Him to go to the city of Ninevah and proclaim a coming judment within 40 days if they did not repent of their evil ways and their idolatry. At first Jonah relented, but eventually stood on a box in the middle of the city and gave the message of God, a warning, of the impending doom. They repented and God held off His judgment and in it’s place, provided mercy.

Mercy is the character trait of God we are most comfortable with. The concept of judgment is one most wrestle with and eventually ignore alltogether. But, we must realize, that God’s justice cannot sleep forever. We have been watching the moral fiber of this country unravel at the speed of light for quite some time, but we just jumped on the fast track.

We have, America, elected the most ungodly president this nation has ever had, elected on the platform of change. The change that will carry us away. Obama’s newly appointed HHS (Health and Human Services) secretary, Kathleen Sebelius, is “pals” with America’s leading abortion doctor, George Tiller, who specializes in late-term, meaning babies that could survive outside the womb, abortions. I wonder what her version of “health and human services” would be. Do you suppose there was a more sinister reason behind his appointment?

Obama recently did away with a “moral-clause” bill, initially enacted by President Bush, that allowed doctors and health-care providers to opt-out of performing abortions if it violated their religious or moral beliefs.

And we know that FOCA is sitting on the Congress floor as we speak. It has yet to be formally announced, but was referred to by Barack Obama on the campaign trail, as “one of the first pieces of legislation” he would sign into existence. FOCA, or Freedom of Choice, would eliminate all legal barriers to abortion, allowing abortion at any point in the pregnancy, for any reason, it would eliminate the need for adult-consent for minor-abortions, it would expand tax-payer funded abortions, nationally and globally, which is essentially occurring with the over $300 million tax-payer dollars that go to Planned Parenthood as it is, and the newly over-run Mexico City policy that ensures our money goes to funding abortion overseas. Scripture tells us, “Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to that person through whom they come.” What about financed by?

It is obvious that Obama is set on an all-out assault on the pre-born, afterall, “he doesn’t want <anyone> punished by a baby.” Those who think this “climate change” or “global warming”, or whatever they’re calling it now to fit their schemes, thing, is unrelated, needs to wake up and take a closer look. While one may think, “So what? What’s the big deal? We can recycle and drive better cars.” You are being deceived. And this isn’t even to address his new policy of carbon credits and caps- which is foolhearty and further perpetuates this expanded governmental control and his tyrannical regime, but it addresses a much more serious consequence… If people truly are the cause of global warming, then what is the long-term answer? Population control, which now explains our new contributions to the UN Population Control fund, which funds forced abortions and forced sterilizations in other countries, but ensures that it will one day come to our own borders. Right here in the good ol’ US of A.

Can you imagine this? This isn’t China- where evil leaders and oppressive regimes have made child-bearing a violation of law, but this WILL come to America. Whatever is necessary to control a harsh and changing climate. Something tells me God would have thought about that before he gave us a mandate to “be fruitful and multiply!”

And these are just the issues of abortion. On the topic of nationalized healthcare, we’re talking about giving the government control of the ultimate decision of who lives and who dies. Senior citizens will be compromised on the premise that they are no longer contributing to society and they are expendable through euthanasia and assisted suicide. And it won’t be restricted just to that group, but to others deemed weak or unnecessary to society. Those with physical disabilties, mental impairments, children with incurable forms of cancer, or even babies with cleft palates. Cleft palates? Why, that’s unfathomable and would never happen! It is happening- in Denmark! Why poor the money into them if they are not worth the cost- especially if they are dying? We can prove this depreciation of life- Washington just signed into law assisted suicides!

This is not the brutally violent civilizations of past empires, represented in movies like “300″ where the leaders of the day simply tossed perceived weak children off a cliff. Again, I repeat, this is coming to the shores of a town near you!

More recent history will tell of a young leader, elected on a platform of change, who did indeed bring promised change. It will go down in history as the most God-awful act of human, not even human, depravity ever perpetrated against man. It began as a small, cancerous growth and eventually grew to such a point that it was unstoppable and incurable, leaving in it’s wake 50 million dead. Jews will refer to it as the Shoah, but most know it as the Holocaust. How could I ever perceive that such an atrocity would visit our land? How could I question a president of the United States in such a way, or show concern that he is even capable of perpetrating such a nightmare? I ask ,why not? Shouldn’t we ever be discerning? Watching? And continuing to ask questions of a regime who has already sworn a Holocaust of the unborn?

Change is here, ladies and gentleman, I just think you may get more than you bargained for. As in the book of Jonah, don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Now we have officially passed this massive spending bill through both the house and the senate. Tomorrow, President Obama will be in Denver signing this socialist-brained package into existence. 

First off, let me say how pleased I am to have him coming to honor the liberals that I co-habitate with in my home-state of Colorado. And it is to this group of blind humans that I dedicate this disaster of a  presidency, the subsequent shift to the left this country has gone in just a few short weeks, and the resulting fade to blue that my state has taken. Granted, it had done so with the election of Bill Ritter, but our state became a dark shade of blue on November 4th.

So, now we have a porky-the-pig spending package that is slated to create or save 4 million jobs. 4 million? Why not 1 million and be suprised by more? The One set the bar rather high- almost guaranteeing a failure and his defeat by the newly refurbished GOP. But, hey, who am I to argue? But these jobs are what I wish to address. And I have a couple questions.

Are there any measures in place that secure these jobs for legal, American citizens?

Is this a bailout package for Mexico and it’s citizens? Because, let’s be real, in the words of CO Sen. Dave Schulthies, there is going to be an illegal immigrant “tsunami” in their attempt to get their hands on this “federal pot of gold.”

We all know how liberal Democrats are when it comes to our borders. They have an open-door policy that has contributed to the decline of America. And it’s all in the name of votes. I don’t really expect them to make any guarantees about the American right to these jobs, considering it is these same Americans that are paying for them, but I think they should have to answer for this dilemma.

Senator Dave suggests they use E-Verify to prove that they are, in fact, legal citizens, eligible for these positions.

I agree. And as a part of this Obama-nation, I would like them to own this very real and legitimate problem. Let’s be real, please. This package is not an attempt to guarantee economic redemption. This is a decades-old, Nanci Pelosi-inspired, liberal wish-list that has been simmering in the progressive crock-pot, just waiting for an aligning of the congressional stars to set it in orbit.

For those of you who voted for Obama, don’t think you’re an appreciated asset to the Obama kingdom, you were just a chess piece, used to set the king in place for one-world checkmate. Checkmate.

money

 
“The final price tag on the stimulus bill is either $787 billion or $9.7 trillion, depending on how one defines words like “final” and “stimulus” and whether you are getting your news from a liberal or conservative news source. If you want your news straight … well, so do I. (But then I’d know how large the stimulus bill actually is. )
 
The fact is that there are as many possible definitions as there are people to define them. President Obama redefined “earmark” so that it meant anything added after the fact, not pork tacked on from the beginning in order to buy congressional votes.
 
Thus, $50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts qualifies as emergency stimulus spending, not pork. The 4 BILLION (with a “b”) for ACORN isn’t really a political payoff. It’s necessary emergency spending to stave off economic “catastrophe.” Without ACORN, how could the economy survive?
 
It is easily the most massive fraud in history, and it is being perpetrated with barely a peep of public opposition. In the first place, nobody understands the amounts of money involved.
 
Even at $787 billion, what does that mean? A billion seconds ago, Jimmy Carter was president of the U.S. A billion minutes ago, Herod was king of Judea.
 
I’ve read all kinds of calculations regarding what the final price tag is to cost each individual American, but again, it depends on some sliding scale of definitions too esoteric for ordinary humans to understand.
 
Somewhere between $1,600 for every man woman and child on earth (on the low end of the scale) to pretty much whatever number one wants to create – using an equally esoteric sliding scale for decimal points.
 
Let’s just say that it’s more than breathtaking. (To pay for it, don’t be surprised to hear plans for breath-taxing.)
 
There has never been a spending plan this large in the history of man. To pull it off, all pretense at keeping previous international trade and currency agreements has been completely abandoned. The “Buy American” clause stands in naked violation of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
 
The printing of money to subsidize an economic downturn is a violation of a number of international currency agreements in force since Nixon removed U.S. currency from the gold standard.
 
The other day, Sen. Chuck Schumer defended a planned $1.2 trillion expenditure by the Federal Reserve by shrugging, “It’s not taxpayer money.” He didn’t mean to, but Schumer let slip the big secret that only Americans are ignorant of.
 
It isn’t taxpayer money; it’s pretend money. It doesn’t exist until it is printed.
 
The only reason the extra $1.2 trillion isn’t counterfeit is because the Fed is authorized to print it, but it will accomplish the same thing. Doubling the amount of currency in circulation has the effect of halving the purchasing weight of the currency already in circulation.
 
Gerald Celente summed it up well on Glenn Beck’s program the other day: “This isn’t Economics 101. It’s not even Economics for Dummies!”
 
According to the latest economic information, the stock market is down a whopping 2,000 points since Election Day. (It makes you wonder what investors know that the rest of us don’t.)
 
And the economic stimulus bill gives a tax cut that amounts, on average, to about $13 more per week in your after-tax paycheck, or about $2.60 per day. (Never mind. Now we all know.)
 
Almost a trillion dollars in new spending and tax cuts – for a wage benefit for the average worker of about $2.60 per day. Well, America voted for change. And America got it.
 
Almost enough change to pay for one coffee break.
 
Tax cuts that would have genuinely benefited the economy – like a tax break for buying a U.S. made car or a tax credit for buying a new home – were dropped.
 
Provisions that would spend tens of millions to help people quit smoking or $50 million for energy upgrades for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Cemeteries Division remain intact.
 
Also intact is $8 billion (with a “b”) for high-speed rail service from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Nothing like investing $8 billion to bail out suffering casinos as an economic stimulus.
