It is so bad that Dinocrat says calling it a 'stimulus bill' is a distortion of the English language:
The bill is characterized as a “stimulus package”, but is really largely a pork barrel created exclusively by the political majority:
– $20.0 billion to increase the maximum benefit under…Food Stamps…
– $18.5 billion for energy efficiency and renewable energy…
– $20.4 billion for programs administered by the Department of health and Human Services…
– $17.6 billion for Pell grants…
– $29.1 billion for other elementary and secondary educational programs…

Yannone: The income tax ends - "We're Finished"
Tuesday, January 27, 2009
by Mark Yannone
With all due respect, Ron, the key word in all of this irrelevant detail is the word "criminal." We don't need to know Congress's spending plans when their taking plan is criminal and needs to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Moreover, you and I have had a lifetime of empty talk about tax cuts and spending reforms. We're done with that now. We've had enough lies from government. Now it's time to put the dentures into the Constitution and turn the faucet off completely. No more tweaking. No more discussion. We're done.

Why Does the World Feel Wrong?
Why Does the World Feel Wrong?: "Our battle for liberty appears not just as a conflict between those who want freedom versus those who want control, but instead as the battle between normal people and the psychopaths. I have found incredible explanatory power of our world within the psychopathic hypothesis: The world feels wrong because psychopaths run it. In a country trained to discount and ridicule all ideas more than a standard deviation from the average, coherent explanations of observable social phenomena don’t get much press. Without understanding physical laws, we would never have gained the massive improvements in our quality of life from technological developments. Similarly, without understanding our social systems, we will never escape from the tyranny unleashed on us by psychopaths. We should spread the word and explore this rich vein of thought with vigor."

Nutricide - Criminalizing Natural Health, Vitamins, and Herbs :: HealthFreedomUSA.org
The Codex Alimentarius is a threat to the freedom of people to choose natural healing and alternative medicine and nutrition. Ratified by the World Health Organization, and going into Law in the United States in 2009, the threat to health freedom has never been greater. This is the first part of a series of talks by Dr. Rima Laibow MD, available on DVD from the Natural Solutions Foundation, an non-profit organization dedicated to educating people about how to stop Codex Alimentarius from taking away our right to freely choose nutritional health.

The Hyperdimensional Election of Barack Obama and 2012
Based on Hyperdimensional Physics, Hoagland successfully predicted the historic results of this election almost two years ago! In this production, based on further application of this HD Model, Hoagland now presents never-before-seen clues to what America and the world may expect from this incoming, unique "Hyperdimensional Obama Administration" -- including, what Barack Obama may finally do with NASA's decades of classified data on intelligent artifacts discovered on the Moon and Mars, as well as what could be in store for all of us at the end of Obama's first term ... in "2012."

The Height of Power - washingtonpost.com: "This is most obvious in economic affairs, an area in which the nation's great regions have previously enjoyed significant autonomy. But already the dukes of Wall Street and Detroit have submitted their papers to Washington for vassalage. Soon many other industries, from high-tech to agriculture and energy, will become subject to a Kremlin full of special czars. Even the most haughty boyar may have to genuflect to official orthodoxy on everything from social equity to sanctioned science." Read more.

Taxpayers in Revolt by Doug French
A punk economy is doing what legislators around the country could never do: shrink state and local governments. California Governator Arnold Schwarzenegger has declared a fiscal emergency because his state is $40 billion in the red and may actually be completely busted by February. He even "ordered state officials to prepare to furlough and lay off employees to cut costs," according to Reuters, which would make the Golden State’s 8.4 percent unemployment rate still worse.
The city of Vallejo, California has already filed for bankruptcy protection and two small towns northeast of San Francisco, Iselton and Rio Vista, are "consulting with bankruptcy lawyers," reports the Wall Street Journal. State Treasurer Bill Lockyer went as far as to say, "California’s fiscal house is burning down." Taxpayers in Revolt by Doug French Read more.

The Obama Ambush
From: Tom Kovach, authorSubject: HACKED -- the Obama ambush
To: "Tom Kovach"
Date: Wednesday, January 21, 2009, 8:15 AM
In the military, we were taught to "charge the ambush".
It would take awhile to explain all the technical reasons, but charging directly into an ambush is the best way to defeat it and live to tell about it.
For a long time, I've asked friends to SPREAD THE WORD.
Some have. Some have not.
Well... this morning, the center-column text of my blog DISAPPEARED.
http://tomkovach.us/blog/
For those of you that actually read it, you might recall that my last blog entry presented a cogent argument -- supported by the Uniform Code of Military Justice, and by military-security rules -- for why members of the military should DISOBEY any order issued by Barack Obama. And, specifically, I suggested that its guardians should REFUSE to hand over to Obama the nuclear "football".

Mr. Barack Obama Historical Oath of President of United States Of America,2009
Chief Justice Roberts tripped up Barack Obama during the swearing in ceremony. Roberts misplaced the word "faithfully" and the unexpected nature of this surprise no doubt caused Obama to hesitate and stumble.
The Presidential Oath of Office:
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Unless our political leaders wake up and change course, we are headed for hyperinflation. We're not there yet, but I believe we are on the cusp, and when it happens, we will no longer recognize America as we know it.
The cause of this calamity was launched many years ago and has been continued by successive administrations, adopting policies of deficit spending.

Yellowstone Earthquake Swarm: Latest Supervolcano Update - Capital Commerce (usnews.com): "January 04, 2009 09:29 AM ET | James Pethokoukis | Permanent Link | Print
The earthquake swarm beneath Yellowstone National Park seems to have subsided for now. At least that is what the public data from the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory are telling us about the supervolcano beneath the park. Now lots of my blog's readers have raised questions as to whether we are being told the truth by the U.S. Geological Survey. (This is my chat with the head scientist at the YVO, Jacob Lowenstern.) I have been in touch this weekend with experts from around the world. Here is some of what they are telling me. (More to come. And here is a nice, though dated, piece from the Financial TImes.)

This scenario is based on the supervolcano beneath Yellowstone National Park erupting, causing vast damage to the area 100 km around the volcano, as well as releasing ash into the atmosphere which cooled the earth. This segment has only aired in the UK. This scenario was explored in depth in another BBC docudrama, Supervolcano. See Yellowstone Caldera. YouTube - End Days - Super Volcanoes

More Why Cops Suck!
Readers often ask why I am so "down" on poLice. Here is just a sample of "WHY" from Radly Balko's blog The Agitator. Also, this excellent research expose Are Cops Constitutional? by Roger Root goes to the heart of the matter.The basic problem is that cops are unaccountable financially and criminally by a system that covers up their abuses and a culture that won't hold them personally accountable by honor or blood. It will get worse until they are slapped down by an intolerant judiciary (lol) or people willing to hold abusive poLice personally responsible for their actions by vigilante justice.

FOXNews.com - Yellowstone Quake Swarm Worries Scientists: "CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Yellowstone National Park was jostled by a host of small earthquakes for a third straight day Monday, and scientists watched closely to see whether the more than 250 tremors were a sign of something bigger to come.
Swarms of small earthquakes happen frequently in Yellowstone, but it's very unusual for so many earthquakes to happen over several days, said Robert Smith, a professor of geophysics at the University of Utah." Read more.
