The data manipulation and fraud stench is too strong to be ignored any longer

As frigid Copenhagen prepares for the upcoming Climate Armageddon confab, a predictable barrage of hothouse horrors has been unleashed, to advance proposals to slash hydrocarbon use and carbon dioxide emissions, restrict agriculture and economic growth, and implement global governance and taxation.

CO2 has reached a new high (0.0385% of the atmosphere), we’re told, because of cars and “coal-fired factories of death.” Rising seas are forcing families to “flee their homes.” Oceans are becoming “toxic.” Climate change is driving Philippine women into prostitution. Higher temperatures will “increase the likelihood of civil war in Sub-Saharan Africa” and “bring human civilization to a screeching halt.” The Associated Press, BBC and other “mainstream” media dutifully regurgitate every press release.

Albert Einstein once said, “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.” Even if Einstein had never discovered the Theory of Relativity, that statement alone shows that he was wise beyond his years.

Putting aside those who were born with learning disorders, I see a lot of stupid people running around in this country. I am sure that statement is not going to make me many friends, but after I am finished, I hope you will at least understand why I said it.

The reason I say I see a lot of stupid people can be best explained by a quote I read in Wikipedia, “Stupidity is distinct from irrationality because stupidity denotes an incapability or [an] unwillingness to properly consider the relevant information.” In other words, stupidity can be defined as willful ignorance.

An ancient saying has it that “gold doesn’t stink.” A modern corollary might be: “Investors do.” Well, at least I’ve caught a whiff of something: A short-term fall in the price of gold, soon.

A subset of investors have gone perhaps a bit too whole hog, and the price of gold is now racing upwards at an increasingly unsustainable rate.

It’s an ancient observation: What goes up must come down.

The following story is a potential fictional time line for the day the dollar died. I hope not to instill fear or loathing but to give everyone some perspective on a POSSIBLE outcome which does not really take much of a reach to come to any conclusion. Despite popular belief and promises from those who wish to rob you of your savings and investments, the collapse of the dollar might just be an event measured in hours, not days as their control is not what it seems….

Mike was less than an hour from home in Minnesota after dropping his load off in Fargo but knew he needed to top his tank off this Sunday evening to insure his rig would make it home. He pulled into the Petro Truck Stop just outside of Fargo and hopped out of the cab into the bitter twenty below temperatures which he could not believe had already hit at ten o’clock at night. He slid his fuel card into the pump waiting for the next prompt when the “SEE ATTENDANT” message flashed in the screen. He blustered, figured it was another card problem and whipped out his Master Card and slid it in after the pump reset and again the “SEE ATTENDANT” message flashed up. “What the hell is going on?” he thought to himself as he wandered into the long line of drivers boisterously yelling at managers and clerks alike.

MANY REQUESTS FOR REPAYMENT: Matching claimants to certificates a mighty task

The seemingly endless stacks of filing cabinets inside a West Virginia warehouse could hold the answer to an unsolved mystery: Who owns nearly $17 billion in lost government bonds?

The unclaimed treasure represents the amount of U.S. bonds that have matured but not been redeemed. Many of these outstanding bonds date to World War II, but over the years the certificates were forgotten in cellars, lost in fires or tossed out in the trash. Unless they are found, the U.S. government can keep the loans, interest free.

Who next will set out to conquer the world?  Who will follow in the footsteps of the great conquerors of all time?  How long will it take to herd the entire human race into the corral of world-wide enslavement?  What name will we call this new-world country created thereby?  What weapons will this new conqueror use to subjugate and unify by force or other means, the peoples of the world under the brutal hand of an all-powerful, dominant King ….. or is it a bunch of bankers?  What!!!!!!!!?  Not man-caused global warming!  It couldn’t be.  The people of the world aren’t that dumb ….. or are they?  Who was it that said: “If you tell a lie often enough, it becomes the perception of truth in the general population”. 

Two-dozen Democrats from Republican-leaning districts, who voted for the House version of President Obama’s increasingly unpopular health care reform, are beginning to feel a growing public backlash. ReversetheVote.org has already raised $123,105 that will be dedicated exclusively to defeating all 24, including Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., in 2010 if they don’t reject the final conference committee version of the bill. They “voted to take away your healthcare and put it in the hands of federal bureaucrats,” the Web site says. “Democrats made a choice … next fall, voters will make a choice.”

Democratic Sen. Richard Durbin recently was asked if a national health care bill would pass the Senate by the end of the year. “It must,” Durbin responded. “We have to finish it.”

Many other top Democrats share Durbin’s determination to meet this deadline. But it’s almost certainly not going to happen, for three reasons: the calendar, the Senate’s other business, and, most importantly, growing public opposition to the health bill itself.

“One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell

The brouhaha over the recent epiphany regarding junk science and climate change duplicity is a big deal.

Science is ‘supposed’ to be all about facts, evidence and proof. The scientific method that kids are taught at an early age is explained as “A method of discovering knowledge about the natural world based in making falsifiable predictions (hypotheses), testing them empirically, and developing peer-reviewed theories that best explain the known data.” It is not ‘supposed’ to be a sporting event of ‘us’ versus ‘them’ or team competition.

To take as fact opinions uttered by those feathering their own nests and/or the nests of their fellow comrades against the people is a grave error.  Avoiding such errors requires vigilance and knowledge, neither one of which one is likely to acquire from mainstream media, public “education”, and officials dedicated to masters determined to take the people’s property, all the while treating our people as less than human.

Thus, let us examine a few facts that are easily verifiable…

I was a long-time opponent of population growth. Not any more. While I staunchly oppose engineered and subsidized population growth of the so-called “under-represented” minorities, be it domestic or imported, I came to believe that the ethnic majority in the U.S., as well as in Western Europe, committed a major mistake by accepting the self(?)-imposed procreation limits that no other ethnic group is willing to live by. As a result, we let our own government, which is increasingly hostile to the ethnic majority, as well as other nations and their governments, maneuver us into the absurd position where, despite building the most stable society and the most successful economy, and despite having the most potent army, we are losing to the “minorities” of the world the fruits of our work, the blessings of our liberty, and even the land of our country.

Just take a look at today’s demographic shift that is going on in America.

What a snow job some corrupt scientists, the arrogant elite, radical environmentalists, the United Nations and their co-conspirators in the United States, have perpetrated on the people of this planet in order to convince a gullible public into believing in the Alice-in-Wonderland fairy tale of man-caused global warming!  In the process they have sullied true science and corrupted the scientific method, maybe beyond repair.  Their specious arguments stretch credulity and are what we call MAI science, or Made-As-Instructed.  In other words, you manipulate the data to arrive at the desired outcome.  What has transpired in this debate is nothing less than the trashing of all of the science greats since Copernicus, Galileo and Newton.

But to see anything clearly, you must have a sufficiently broad perspective, accompanied by hard data, repeatable long-term observations and verifiable facts.  If you are standing and looking at the ground, your perspective and your field of view are quite limited.  If however, you are standing on the top of a mountain, your perspective broadens exponentially. 

It was hard for me to believe that Judge David O. Carter, a decorated, and honorable, United States Marine, would change his demeanor and sell his soul to the devil, by dismissing Dr. Orly Taitz’s law suit against Barack Obama’s eligibility to serve as President of the United States; but it was twice as unbelievable, that 60 United States Senators would vote to enact a perverted, and unconstitutional $2.5 trillion dollar power grab, and extortion scheme.

Treason is afoot, and the only logical conclusion I can derive is, that our Congress has been invaded by aliens.

They are not American’s, professing the founding philosophy and principles of a free nation.

Insanity reigns in Washington D.C. and I think that we have been invaded by aliens, just like in the 1956 psychological horror flick; Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

The following was sent by a friend of the Federal Observer.

For that, which you are about to read, the original source is unknown – but the reality of it hits home, like a bolt of lighting.

We’re so f*%@*^!

Like Venezuelan Dictator Hugo Chavez on steroids, US Dictator-in-Chief Barack Hussein Obama and his Marxist-Democrat Party are continuing their fast and furious drive to enslave We-the-People and take over as the aristocratic ruling body of the former United States of America.  Behind the scene and closed doors, Obama is continuing his dark mission of the ongoing takeover of all major US businesses and creating an atmosphere that will disallow small to medium sized businesses to exist.  And, like his Marxist mentor Saul Alinsky, Obama despises the middle-class (they have traditionally wielded too much power for Obama to allow) as well as the USA.  Therefore, Obama will continue to work towards ensuring increasing unemployment of this class so that they/we no longer have any strength at all.

You are an American.  The blood of heroes and patriots courses through your arteries and veins.  Millions of men and women have paid the ultimate sacrifice and many have been maimed for life so that you can stand free on a new continent, where freedom was born.

You are the descendants of those whose spine was stiffened by courage when their country called, or evil raised its ugly head.  You are the direct lineage of the men and women whose intellect and fortitude carried them to new heights and made America the greatest, proudest, industrious, creative, productive and most generous nation on Earth.  You are the sons, daughters, grandsons and grand daughters of those who stood up to tyranny, no matter what the cost.  The genes of creators, inventors, hard workers, the educated, the warriors and those in service to others, are an integral part of your DNA and it lies dormant in your being until it is called upon to do good ….. or destroy evil.

I woke up this morning and stretched my aching limbs. You see, I’ve been running the chain saw quite a lot recently, bringing in the wood that will keep me from freezing during what promises to be a cold and wet Ozark winter. I engage in this task not just for myself, and not just for the benefit of Boris, my blind and ancient Alaskan malamute. Hardly . . . I am imbued with a much greater purpose, an overwhelming sense of global obligation.

Despite the pain of stiff muscles, I was filled with a sense of joy. You see, as I do every morning, I quickly punched in a few numbers on my official, wind-powered, Obama-brand, stimulus calculator. I realized that by the act of slicing up trees I had saved or created countless jobs.

What follows is worth your time and consideration. I have been most supportive of the author for this month-long project, which he felt compelled to take on. The opening segment, is from a cover letter, which he sent along with copies of his letter to the (dis)Honorable, Senator Charles E. Schumer, (D) New York. (Ed.)

“I have enclosed a copy of an important letter for your careful review. I spent over a month struggling to arrange my thoughts, revising, and rewriting, and finally putting them to paper for this particular piece to US Senator Schumer – it is THAT important to me. With my work schedule as a school bus driver, I live life like a hamster on a treadmill and very seldom have time to write such an involved piece anymore, so this general cover letter will have to do to inform you. Please pay me the courtesy of reading the letter. You will soon realize that I wrote this piece in the strongest possible terms. I have a great fear for the very safety and security of our Republic, the United States of America – AND it’s continued existence as a sovereign nation.

In my humble opinion ‘We the People’ have been ignored and cheated – and have not received honest government for the last 40 or more years. Good Americans die every day for causes not worth dying for, and our government continually forces itself on other countries around the world – while at the same time IGNORES its own people’s plight. I spent an entire blue-collar working life watching job after job slip from my grasp to the benefit of the self-serving and greedy of this nation – to the point now where there is nothing left of the ‘American Dream’.

All the ‘good jobs’ have left the country. While the well-to-do ‘establishment’ would certainly argue, I KNOW it for a fact; because for what seemed the umpteenth time I “re-educated” myself yet again and earned a college degree when I was 54 years of age. And even that did not lead to the elusive ‘American dream’. Not a chance. Now at 63, I find myself transporting children who don’t seem to know how to learn and don’t act like they want to anyway. Can you blame them? Perhaps they have been paying attention to the national bad news – and have realized to their chagrin that there ARE no jobs left for them – hence, no future.

While I fully realize my letter to the Senator is lengthy, the problems created by inept politicians are colossal by comparison. The important thing, of course is saving our country from sure ruin. Please read my letter with an open mind. My sole intent is to somehow make a positive difference – to save us all from the hell I see coming very soon. Partisan politics must go the way of the dinosaurs. We MUST all pull together – in the same direction, and in unison, for any positive change to occur. Please help me help America. Your response is certainly most welcome.”

This past Thursday (November 5, 2009) 13 American Soldiers were killed and another 30 wounded at a horrific mass shooting at US Army installation, Ft Hood Texas.  As I watched in horror and then anger I recalled my two years of final service in the Army as a Battalion Commander at Ft Hood, 2002-2004.

My wife and two daughters were stunned at the incident having lived on the post in family housing.

A military installation, whether it is Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine, or Coast Guard, is supposed to be a safe sanctuary for our Warriors and their families.  It is intended to provide a home whereby our “Band of Brothers and Sisters” can find solace and bond beyond just the foxhole but as family units.

A military installation is supposed to be a place where our Warriors train for war, to serve and protect our Nation.
