Poor Judgement In Choice Words

Posted by nomi on Friday, May 29, 2009 10:03:37 PM
While I don't think Sotamayor is the worst choice, the point of a good appointee out of so many qualified people(of all races/lets not discriminate) is in fact JUDGEMENT.   Or as we say in real life applications- judgement calls.    Being a supreme court justice requires an extreme ability to making good judgement calls.  We the people require that.  Or else we regress not progress as we have not felt a progressive increase in quality of life from one generation to the next for the first time in our youthful country's life.   In the past-despite being a young country we have been a beacon to others while at the same time able to increase our own quality of life each generation.    Sadly the last thirty years have yielded a different result.  So much so that we are compared to Rome now.  We require nothing less than atleast mediocre judgement. Poor choices/judgement calls will only lead us to the path of Rome.

Financial Freefall Just Begun

Posted by nomi on Monday, May 18, 2009 3:24:20 AM
A stop at Costco and ran into a person who updated me on her own financial probs and 3 others related to her.  This is not even on the financial radar yet.  There are a bunch of people that have had great credit up till now that have taken from their credit cards for the rainy day that will come because of the drying up economy.  They have not been late yet.  More to come with this. The financial industry is the wild west now and we have not felt but the first wave.  Next are the ones that owe more and under a capitalist system could have used their ingenuity to survive.  That is gone with the skewed and bastardized system that has been created, where only the ones that give the criminals in office money survive.   Law?  Constitution?  What that?  Nob.  Oh boy.   Bernanke is lying about the stabilizing economy and that we are out of the financial freefall.  They(the ones that advocate all the bailouts and takeovers) are all frauds for doing what they want to do under fabricated pretenses.    Barak O'Bama is now the chief of all of this.  His speaches are at best just platitudes and at worst a destructive bunch of destroying individuality and where just achieving for the profane and demonic is revered.  Shame on Notre Dame.  Why don't you stand up for a fetus that happenned to survive an abortion?!   Oh no just champion the guy that would fight for the right to kill that little soul.   Invite that man to speak on your campus why don't you.
 
 
If only it was only about platitudes and not demonic profanity.

The Great Puppetmasters at the Council on Foreign Relations

Posted by nomi on Monday, May 11, 2009 5:30:59 PM
Formulating the great tee up via Bush Admin for Barak to give trillions of dollars away, is the Council on Foreign Relations.   The initial bailout was never commented on by Cheney.   In fact it was the Cheney/Bush  presidency that created the notion of being against capitalism for its survival in order to give billions to those corporations that have the honor of being called "too big to fail."  These were novel ideas at the time.  The danger of this initial bail out was never commented on by what Rush Limbaugh calls "America loving Cheney."   Further, in hindsight what would have been less costly in lives, dollars, and national security on all fronts than sending troops to abroad - enforcing immigration laws, including visa overstays, and background checks.  This "American loving man" has never commented on the border and immigration laws and dangerously high deficits from the never ending printing of money to campaign contributors encroaching on the liberties of the law abiding citizen.  Instead Cheney chooses to come out of the shadows just as Barak Obama's polling dips to its lowest point.   Cheney knows he is a polarizing figure and more than a reminder of the failings of the Bush admin. What would be the point of coming out and criticizing Barak?!  It is not for the conservatives to be convinced.  They are too numb from being played by the Bush admin and leaders of the Republican party like McCain seemingly intentionally handing over power to the Democrats. So it seems, he has come out for those who supported Barak that are questioning his policies to react reflexively to the "Darth Vader" of politics and run back to Barak.  Cheney a director of the Council on Foreign Relations, as is Soros and Yzaguirre (la Raza former c.e.o) is teeing it up for Obama's agenda once again. 


 
I don't think the Council on Foreign Relations has a specific agenda other than aggrandizing wealth and  power to those who join.  It seems to offer a great meeting ground for politicians and corporations, other nations, and/or a powerful individual to "work on policies" that mutually benefit these parties.   Campaign contributions going one way along with future promises of great jobs in exchange for policies that benefit the non-elected members.   Remember Cheney as a senator with no real corporate experience did become c.e.o. of Halliburton once retired and only after trimming the military on Bush 1's cabinet.  It is kind of like a matchmaker of sorts, the cfr.   It seems that commissions could be made for these matches, or facilitators get appointments and other lucrative scraps, or perhaps it operates more like a whore house.  The CFR provides its members the benefit of the elite media that are all to willing to write or pontificate on behalf of the success of these matches.  Is this why the "Beltway Boys" confusingly championed amnesty on Fox News?   It seems unlikely that a man of Cheney's experience would be a one issue man when it comes to the love of his nation.  With this love wouldn't he have commented on other issues other than the reflexive issue of "torture"?  Especially when these other issues have as much to do with the survival of our nation as the topic of "torture."   Once again Cheney is teeing it up for the policies of fellow Council on Foreign Relations members who have much invested in Obama.
 
And what a coincidence, we now have a stellar citizen well known for his tax paying abilities taking over all industry -http://www.cfr.org/publication/17860/timothy_geithner_us_treasury_secretary.html
Geithners arrangements with the executive branch Bush/Bama seems to have been solidified at the Council on Foreign Relations.  The CFR calls this union a "task force," fancy/shmancy, stimulus/shmimulus, tarp/shmarp, ...

Marie Antoinette Move Over

Posted by nomi on Saturday, May 09, 2009 11:22:30 PM
"I have a Chief of Staff and a personal assistant, and everyone needs that; that's what we need. Everyone should have a Chief of Staff and a set of personal assistants," Mrs. Obama said.
 
and what about?
 
"I call myself a 120-percenter. If I'm not doing any job at 120 percent, I think I'm failing." Mrs. Obama said.
 
...way to go Mrs. Obama.   Are we all losers to you? Cause honestly outside of Washington who has staff to help get to that 120%?  Most of us consider it a good day when we are able to give 100%. This comment should leave a bad taste in the mouths of those who are subjects of the Obamas, leaving us longing for that slice of cake.
