Palin: A Perfect Train Wreck




I have to say it is pure joy to watch Sarah Palin’s political career peak and turn to dust in a matter of weeks. It’s actually hard to believe just 27 days ago Sarah Palin stepped on stage at the Republican National Convention and tickled the GOP’s balls. Holy shit, were they excited. It was almost like Jesus had come back in hot housewife form. And to be honest, they should have been excited because they finally had someone on their ticket who was alive. 

But those days are over. Sarah Palin was awesome when nobody knew anything about her, but now she is a horrifying prospect. The blame obviously lays at John McCain’s feet for not vetting her and allowing the Christian Right to force a pathetic VP on him. The lack of vetting led to a couple of amazing weeks of information. 

First we learned she kills moose. That is, of course, awesome and would be really important if we were some sort of Donner Party stuck in the Alaskan wilderness. Unfortunately, we are a country and killing moose is tragically unimportant. We then learned many other things about Sarah. 

She lied about saying “no, but no thanks” to Congress about the “Bridge to Nowhere.” She left the tiny city of Wasilla with an insanely large $22 million debt. She was raised in a gay hating, tongue speaking, witch-stopping church. She tried to ban books. She abused her power by firing town employees without reason. She attempted to have her ex-brother-in-law fired from his law enforcement position and then fired the guy who wouldn’t fire him. She is against abortion in cases of rape and incest. She was mayor when the police chief began charging rape victims for their rape kits. She lied about visiting Ireland. She did not own a passport until 2006. She did not leave the country until 2007. She thinks being near Russia makes her important. It's like an idiot buffet.

Bailout equals Aquisition


"Everything predicted by the enemies of banks, in the beginning, is now coming to pass. We are to be ruined now by the deluge of bank paper. It is cruel that such revolutions in private fortunes should be at the mercy of avaricious adventurers, who, instead of employing their capital, if any they have, in manufactures, commerce, and other useful pursuits, make it an instrument to burden all the interchanges of property with their swindling profits, profits which are the price of no useful industry of theirs." 
-- Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Thomas Cooper, 1814. 

The current proposal to bail out the failing financial institutions is just another step toward total control of the monetary system that is being funded by you the tax payer and orchestrated by the Government and the Federal Reserve (FED). 

Most people assume the FED is an agency of the US Government and would be shocked to know the truth. The FED is a partnership between the Federal Government and a small cartel of privately owned banks. The same private banks that are now lining up to collect their piece of the 700 billion dollar bailout. This money, provided by the taxpayer, will be used to buy up the remaining competition to further consolidate the holdings of the banking cartel. 

The end result of all this funding will be the total acquisition of wealth by the few at the expense of generations to come. 

There is really only one upside to the crisis - people are starting to question what is really going on. 

Some of the answers can be found in films like films like:- 
"Freedom to Fascism", "Fiat Empire" and "The Money Masters". 

Information is power so don't become the subject of this quote.
