Love Those Comments From The Huffington Post
"What a fraud B.O. is. he blames the U.S. the most be cause he cannot afford to portray Mexicans in a negative light whatsoever, especially when he's going to try to ram amnesty down the throats of Americans this summer before all of his political capital is spent. He also needs the Hispanic vote for re-election."
"Chains we can believe in!"
"Let's hope Barry doesn't bow to another head of state on this trip. He really needs to stop this disburbing habit. He should bow to the constitution of the United States and not to foreign heads of states."
"Where's the Change We Can Believe In, Mr President? And don't you have enough wars on your hands?"

The Earnings Suspense File: Social Security's "Secret Stash" "Money from Nowhere" Fattens Government Accounts
"What happens to the money assigned to people using false identities, or names matched with the wrong Social Security Number (SSN), or newlyweds who forgot to register their name changes with the Social Security administration?
"The answer lies in a little-known aspect of the Social Security behemoth known as the Earnings Suspense File (ESF).
"The ESF has become a hotbed for debate over everything from immigration rights to identity theft, as it continues to accrue money at roughly $6 billion a year, with the total as of 2005 sitting at $519 billion.
"As MSNBC reporter Bob Sullivan put it in an interview with ConsumerAffairs.com, the ESF is part of a 'grand mystery,' wherein money seems to disappear. But where does the money come from, what happens to it, and why isn't more being done about the problem?"

Communities print their own currency to keep cash flowing
"Borrowing from a Depression-era idea, they are aiming to help consumers make ends meet and support struggling local businesses.
"The systems generally work like this: Businesses and individuals form a network to print currency. Shoppers buy it at a discount — say, 95 cents for $1 value — and spend the full value at stores that accept the currency."
Obama the Pitchfork Operator: A Remake of the Soviet Classic

"Community organizers were instrumental in forcing banks to give subprime loans to unqualified minority borrowers by using the 'pitchforks' tactics — protesting in front of the banks, camping on the lawns of the bankers’ family houses, intimidating families, and suing in courts. After the bankers were sufficiently roughed up, a community organizer would show up at their office to 'negotiate' the bank’s surrender in the form of bad loans and money for community organizations that pay community organizers for their 'services.'”
Is that not called racketeering?
and
"Once a community organizer gains control of the media and the government, the next logical step is to turn the entire nation into a mob and set them against businesses, while offering the latter government 'protection.' The subsequent takeover of the economy leaves the future society reduced to the two basic elements: an authoritarian government and a compliant mob. This may be an ideal arrangement for a community organizer, but it’s a direct opposite of what the Founding Fathers had intended.
"Most Americans will probably associate this trend with the protection racket that was rampant in Chicago in the 1930s. It follows the same pattern: the mob, in conjunction with the unions, would organize strikes and protests, do physical damage, and intimidate business owners. Then a mob representative would meet with the owner and offer 'protection' by saying 'I’m the only thing between you and the pitchforks.'”
