Mexican pirates attack Texas fishermen on Falcon Lake, which straddles border

Wasington Post

Sunday, May 30, 2010

ZAPATA, TEX. -- Falcon Lake is famous for its monster bass and for the maniacal obsession of the fishermen who come from all over Texas -- and the world -- to stalk them. Now this remote reservoir that straddles the international boundary is known for something else: pirates.

In the past month, crews of outlaws in a small armada of banged-up skiffs and high-powered bass boats launched from the Mexican shore have ambushed bass anglers from the Texas side innocently casting their plastic worms over favorite spots. The buccaneers have struck in Mexican waters but within sight of the Texas shore.

Dressed in black, the pirates brandish automatic weapons, carry radio cellphones and board the anglers' boats. They demand weapons or drugs from their captives, but finding neither, seem satisfied with taking $400 or $500 as booty, according to law enforcement officials and victims' accounts.

There is a saying about not messing with Texas, and the idea that criminals are preying on American anglers is raising already-high temperatures along the southwest border. Answering calls for help, President Obama last week ordered 1,200 National Guard troops to the region.

The pirates claim to be "federales," or police, but instead are brigands -- with the letter "Z" tattooed on their necks and arms -- from the notorious drug cartel Los Zetas. The Zetas are on a rampage of killing and extortion along the Mexican border as they fight gun and grenade battles against the military and the rival Gulf Cartel.

"Within the last month, with all the feuding going on over there, the dope smuggling has dropped off and it is starving them. This water is Zeta central. They controlled the whole lake. They distributed everything. Now they're desperate and diversifying," said Jose E. Gonzalez, the second in command of the Border Patrol's Zapata station, which operates an around-the-clock maritime patrol.

Who Is He? BHO

Thanks Kay for Forwarding this item.

WHO IS HE ???
Why was his law license inactivated in 2002?
Why was Michelle's law license INACTIVATED by court order?

There is only one Barack Hussein Obama according to the U. S. Census and he has 27 Social Security numbers and over 80 aliases. The one he uses now originated in Connecticut where he is not ever reported to have lived. No wonder ALL of his 'records' are sealed!!!

It just gets worse!!! At least we only have 3 years of this mystery man left before we can replace him.Was He There? Who IS He?I have always wondered why NO ONE ever came forward from Obama's past saying they knew him, attended school with him, was his friend, etc. NO ONE, not one person has ever come forward from his past. VERY, VERY STRANGE. This should really be a cause for great concern. To those who voted for him, YOU HAVE ELECTED THE BIGGEST UNQUALIFIED FRAUD that America has ever known!

This is very interesting stuff. Sort of adds credence to the idea of The Manchurian Candidate thing having happened here! Stephanopoulos of ABC news said the same thing during the 08' campaign. He too was a classmate of BO's at Columbia class of 1984. He said he never had ONE class with him. Was he there? While he is such a great orator, why doesn't ANYONE in Obama's college class remember him? Maybe he never attended class! Maybe he never attended Columbia? He won't allow Colombia to release his records either.Suspicious isn't it??? NOBODY REMEMBERS OBAMA AT COLUMBIA!!!!!!!

Looking for evidence of Obama's past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there, but none remembered him. Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who also graduated in 1983. In 2008, Root says of Obama, "I don't know a SINGLE PERSON at Columbia that knew him, and they all know me. I don't have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia. EVER! Nobody recalls him. I'm not exaggerating, I'm not kidding. "Root adds that he was also, like Obama, "Class of '83 political science, pre-law" and says, "You don't get more exact or closer than that. Never met him in my life, don't know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack!

And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guy who writes the class notes, who's kind of the, as we say in New York, the macha who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him. Is that not strange? It's VERY strange. "Obama's photograph does NOT appear in the school's 'yearbook' and Obama consistently declines requests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayne_Allyn_Root#column-one

NOTE: Root graduated as Valedictorian from his high school, Thornton-Donovan School, then graduated from Columbia University in 1983 as a Political Science major (in the same class as Barack Hussein Obama WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN IN). Can it be that BHO is a complete fraud?? More intrigue concerning "The Man who WASN'T there." I m sure the truth will be found out, but too bad not soon enough! Please do not give up on ousting the people at the top. We must go on, and continue sending these out to everyone.

Pass this on to everyone on your e-list. Pass it across America!

Greece urged to give up euro

by Robert Watts

THE Greek government has been advised by British economists to leave the euro and default on its €300 billion (£255 billion) debt to save its economy.

The Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), a London-based consultancy, has warned Greek ministers they will be unable to escape their debt trap without devaluing their own currency to boost exports. The only way this can happen is if Greece returns to its own currency.

Greek politicians have played down the prospect of abandoning the euro, which could lead to the break-up of the single currency.

Speaking from Athens yesterday, Doug McWilliams, chief executive of the CEBR, said: “Leaving the euro would mean the new currency will fall by a minimum of 15%. But as the national debt is valued in euros, this would raise the debt from its current level of 120% of GDP to 140% overnight.

“So part of the package of leaving the euro must be to convert the debt into the new domestic currency unilaterally.”

Greece’s departure from the euro would prove disastrous for German and French banks, to which it owes billions of euros.

McWilliams called the move “virtually inevitable” and said other members may follow.

“The only question is the timing,” he said. “The other issue is the extent of contagion. Spain would probably be forced to follow suit, and probably Portugal and Italy, though the Italian debt position is less serious.

“Could this be the last weekend of the single currency? Quite possibly, yes.”

See What 2 Million Dollars of your Tax Money does for 24 Low Income Families

by D Michael Waller

Want to get really mad, I mean mad to the point where you will wake up and do something? I don't care if it is nothing more than telling your friends about this. There is an effort in this country to create a permanent under class society. Watch this video and check out the web site. This is happening all over the United States. Who do you think these people are going to vote for in the mid-terms and in 2012?? For someone who needs to tell them in the name of tough love,, the madness has got to stop or someone who is telling them, that they have the right to the great life without having to earn it. This is going too far and needs to stop while we, the awaken ones still have a voice.

Let me break it down, the Federal Government gave this Company in Colorado Springs 2 Million Dollars to buy this project and finish it. It is a 24 unit Apartment Complex, meant to be a upper end complex. Just look at the video. That is $83,000.00 per apartment so the poor folks in a shelter can have a decent place to live for next to nothing, paying the rent with our Tax Dollars. That I understand, but where is the incentive for them to improve their life, get a job and move out and up if the Government is giving them this? What about all those hard working Americans working at or near the minimum wage or our Military Family's? How would you like to live next door this this, and your paying market price and working your butt off to keep your head above water?

Is it me or is this going too Far?

Ron Paul: Inside Sources Told Me Fed Is Panicking At Mass Awakening

'Appearing on The Alex Jones Show yesterday, Congressman Ron Paul revealed that through his inside sources he had learned that the people who control the Federal Reserve are panicking about the fact that Americans are waking up to the fact that the U.S. is controlled by the central bank.

“I had some information passed on to me, sort of inside information, somebody who knew somebody who was well tuned to the people at the Federal Reserve – and they said they are really really concerned about our movement to expose the Fed for what they’re doing,” said Paul, adding, “What they’re upset or worried about is the fact that more and more people are aware of the Federal Reserve now like never before,” explaining that exposure will lead to change and a reform of the Federal Reserve.'

Thanks Kay for bringing this letter to my attention

By Lou Pritchett, Procter & Gamble

A LETTER FROM A PROCTER AND GAMBLE EXECUTIVE TO
THE PRESIDENT*

Vice-President, Sales and Customer Development for Procter and
Gamble and over the course of 36 years, made corporate history.

AN OPEN LETTER TO
PRESIDENT OBAMA


Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike
any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.


You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive
Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no
visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth
growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus
don't understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned
yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to
publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail..

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America '
crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style
country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system
with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly
capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose
that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of
living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics
against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from
challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider
opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both
omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything
you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the
Limbaugh's, Hannity's, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing,
conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will
probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Lou Pritchett

Towards Another Stock Market Meltdown?

'This kind of program was implemented during the 1930s when we are told that unemployment was 25%. During the late 1930s the program failed to pull America out of depression. Unemployment in 1939 was 17.4% and in 1940 it was 16.2%, hardly the results hoped for and anticipated. The result was WWII. We are headed in the same direction today, as the Middle East and Asia smolder ready at any time to burst into flames.

In the US liquidity was unleashed on a massive scale and that is what will happen in Europe. It is the only way they can keep the system functioning. We Are now closing in on the next planned world war as a result. When and where we can only guess, but it surely is on the way, the same way it was in the late 1930s. War is a distraction and it succeeds in culling the population. It is also a cover-up for massive financial and economic problems that have resulted from the financial elite looting the system.'

The Hire, Fire, Hire Census Game, Or Why the Unemployment Numbers Are Improving

by John Crudele

You know the old saying: "Everyone loves a charade." Well, it seems that the Census Bureau may be playing games.
Last week, one of the millions of workers hired by Census 2010 to parade around the country counting Americans blew the whistle on some statistical tricks.

The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department.

Below, I have a couple more readers who worked for Census 2010 and have tales to tell.

But first, this much we know.


Each month Census gives Labor a figure on the number of workers it has hired. That figure goes into the closely followed monthly employment report Labor provides. For the past two months the hiring by Census has made up a good portion of the new jobs.

Labor doesn't check the Census hiring figure or whether the jobs are actually new or recycled. It considers a new job to have been created if someone is hired to work at least one hour a month.

One hour! A month! So, if a worker is terminated after only one hour and another is hired in her place, then a second new job can apparently be reported to Labor . (I've been unable to get Census to explain this to me.)

Here's a note from a Census worker -- this one from Manhattan:

"John: I am on my fourth rehire with the 2010 Census.

"I have been hired, trained for a week, given a few hours of work, then laid off. So my unemployed self now counts for four new jobs.

"I have been paid more to train all four times than I have been paid to actually produce results. These are my tax dollars and your tax dollars at work.

"A few months ago I was trained for three days and offered five hours of work counting the homeless. Now, I am knocking (on) doors trying to find the people that have not returned their Census forms. I worked the 2000 Census. It was a far more organized venture.

"Have to run and meet my crew leader, even though with this rain I did not work today. So I can put in a pay sheet for the hour or hour and a half this meeting will take. Sincerely, C.M."

Double-dip fears over worldwide credit stress

The global credit system is flashing the most serious warning signals in almost a year on triple fears of a Spanish banking crisis, escalating political risk in Asia, and a second leg to the US housing slump.

Fears that America may slip back into a double-dip recession are returning. Larry Summers, the White House economic tsar, has called for a second stimulus package to keep the recovery on track, warning that the US economy is still in a "very deep valley".

US money supply plunges at 1930s pace as Obama eyes fresh stimulus

The M3 money supply in the United States is contracting at an accelerating rate that now matches the average decline seen from 1929 to 1933, despite near zero interest rates and the biggest fiscal blitz in history.

The M3 figures - which include broad range of bank accounts and are tracked by British and European monetarists for warning signals about the direction of the US economy a year or so in advance - began shrinking last summer. The pace has since quickened.

The stock of money fell from $14.2 trillion to $13.9 trillion in the three months to April, amounting to an annual rate of contraction of 9.6pc. The assets of insitutional money market funds fell at a 37pc rate, the sharpest drop ever.

"It’s frightening," said Professor Tim Congdon from International Monetary Research. "The plunge in M3 has no precedent since the Great Depression. The dominant reason for this is that regulators across the world are pressing banks to raise capital asset ratios and to shrink their risk assets. This is why the US is not recovering properly," he said.

The US authorities have an entirely different explanation for the failure of stimulus measures to gain full traction. They are opting instead for yet further doses of Keynesian spending, despite warnings from the IMF that the gross public debt of the US will reach 97pc of GDP next year and 110pc by 2015.

President Obama's Budget Cuts Visualized part 2

President Obama's Budget Cuts Visualized

Kicking the Can down the Street, or, The end of the USA as we know it

I am not going to impress upon you facts, figures, charts and grafts. If you haven't bought into the coming collapse by now, you are not going to until it is in your living room.

There has been enough information posted here over the last year to serve anyone with more fact and figures than one can digest. Now is the time to decide what you are going to do.

The stock market is being kept up and the precious metals market are being kept down through manipulation. The little 1,000 point drop that happen a few weeks back was called by insiders at least 3 days before the fall. What does this tell us? It tells me that the big boys are getting out of the markets and going into cash.

Same with the Oil, Copper and other commodities. When in recent history have you seen the price of gas go down going into the summer. Why? Because the big boys know what is coming and they want out now and they want cash. Why cash? So when the markets collapse, they will be in a position to come in and be able to buy for penny's on the dollar.

So, what does this have to do with us? Why does the markets have to do with kicking a can down the street? Imagine our National Debt as a can and our Government is the kid kicking the can. Now, here is the problem, the kid is running out of street. He is fast coming to the end of the street and there is nothing but a gutter at the end and that is where the can is going.

When this market melts, our Government will try to save it once more by throwing money at it, or throwing the money at the banks, the same ones that brought this all about. But this time, it ain't going to work.

Want a prelude to what is coming? I would suggest looking at some videos of what happened in Greece. There will be riots in the streets, shortages of food and gas, and massive layoffs. I can even see partial Nationalization of some sectors as well as Bank Holidays.

While this will pass and things will get back to some kind of normal one day. The fact is, A Catastrophic Event will Happen! That can has been kicked long enough down the street. The USA can not keep up with the debt that is carrying and any negative movement will bring the house down.

So, what do you do? How about thinking about what you buy before you do. Do you really need it or just want it. How about trying to stock up on at least a months worth of food, have a few cans of gas in the garage. Have Cash on hand, get away from debt. Learn to live on less and realize that you are not what you have, but rather who you are. Nobody is going to care if you are in a Lexus or a Ford. Cut back and get to a simpler kind of life, get more involve in your family. Get the hell away from the TV and start reading books again. Get into a good neighborhood bible based church. Re-learn the value of being a good family member, a good friend, and a good neighbor. Put back a little extra for those who will be caught short.

You don't need to voice your opinion, Let your actions be your words. Get involved in your local politics, support someone with values that you agree with, values that are based in common sense. Do what is right, even if it the price is high. Live a life of high moral character and surround yourself with other people with the same values and morals.

All it is going to take to get through this is a handful of people that remember what made this country what it is, and Willing to make the sacrifice to do the right thing. A knowing of our history so you may teach those who don't know. Educate them in the meaning of what our founder fathers meant for us. Teach them the meaning of the Constitution. Teach common sense. Having respect for your fellow man and for our Police out there. Let them know that you are on their side and there to support them. Remember, we are all one family, living in one house, the USA.

The way to bring our country through this is to start with yourselves and your neighbors. It will be a battle of one street at a time. One town at a time, One State at a time.

This isn't the first time this has happen and wont be the last. We have pulled through it before and we will again. It will be hard and blood will be spilled. There will be times of darkness and times that it will look hopeless. But think about our fore fathers, the ones that were at Vally Forge, at Gettysburg, the people that live through the Great Depression.

I welcome times like these. When times are good, the good and the bad look so much alike. When times are bad, that is when the good comes to the top. That is the time of Heroes to shine. And Lord knows, we are in need of a few.

As for me, I'll feed my brother, I'll clothed him, I'll provide him with a warm place to stay, regardless if he is a D or a R, from a Blue State or Red, because at the end of the day, regardless of the who, he is still my brother and even the less among us, deserve our love and respect. That my friend is what made us great and will again.

Dow Theorist Richard Russell: Sell Everything, You Won't Recognize America By The End Of The Year

'Richard Russell, the famous writer of the Dow Theory Letters, has a chilling line in today's note:

Do your friends a favor. Tell them to "batten down the hatches" because there's a HARD RAIN coming. Tell them to get out of debt and sell anything they can sell (and don't need) in order to get liquid. Tell them that Richard Russell says that by the end of this year they won't recognize the country. They'll retort, "How the dickens does Russell know -- who told him?" Tell them the stock market told him.'

The Correction is Coming and It Will be a Bloobath

"The Correction is Coming and It Will Be a Bloodbath"
The correction, soon to be crash, is here: the market had a bigger relative open to close move today than it did on May 6. We closed at the day's lows on massive volume, despite definitive central bank intervention, regardless whether it was the SNB, the ECB, or the Fed. The central planners have lost control of the market, and all thanks to the inevitable collapse of hyper capitalist Keynesianism coming out of the formerly most communist country in the world. A day of ironies. And it's not over. Futures are already down another 4 handles. The correction is coming, and it will be a bloodbath. The Fed can not push rates lower. It will print. It is inevitable. It is our destiny.

The Budget Deficit, The Real Story

Budget deficit

The Washington Post babbled again today about Obama inheriting a huge deficit from Bush.
Amazingly enough, a lot of people swallow this nonsense (AKA Horseshit). So once more, a short civics lesson is in order.

Budgets do not come from the White House. They come from Congress, and the party that controlled Congress since January 2007 is the Democratic Party. They controlled the budget process for FY 2008 and FY 2009, as well as FY 2010 and FY 2011. In that first year, they had to contend with George Bush, which caused them to compromise on spending, when Bush somewhat belatedly got tough on spending increases. For FY 2009, though, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid bypassed George Bush entirely, passing continuing resolutions to keep government running until Barack Obama could take office. At that time, they passed a massive omnibus spending bill to complete the FY 2009 budgets.

And where was Barack Obama during this time? He was a member of that very Congress that passed all of these massive spending bills, and he signed the omnibus bill as President to complete FY 2009. Let's remember what the deficits looked like during that period:



If the Democrats inherited any deficit, it was the FY 2007 deficit, the last of the Republican budgets. That deficit was the lowest in five years, and the fourth straight decline in deficit spending. After that, Democrats in Congress took control of spending, and that includes Barack Obama, who voted for the budgets. If Obama inherited anything, he inherited it from himself.


In a nutshell, what Obama is saying is I inherited a deficit that I voted for and then I voted to expand that deficit four-fold since January 20th.
