Bank of America Declares War On the United States

Bank of America has declared war on our country. The recently announced transfer of $75 trillion in derivatives _ much of which consists of toxic assets _ has the potential for bankrupting the nation.

If the President and his economic team, led by already criminally complicit Tim Geitner, allows this quiet coup d'état against the interests of the American people of a magnitude that literally puts at risk our survival as a functioning nation, we will know where they really stand.

President Obama says he is serious about challenging the corruption of Wall Street and the banksters. I have a suggestion. I say we redeploy the troops which are allegedly returning from Iraq. How many branches and offices are there in the Bank of America empire? I think 60,000 battle-hardened soldiers would do the trick.

Unoccupy Iraq.

Occupy Bank of America!

Chris Hedges: Speaking Truth To Power

In an OpEdNews essay titled "A Movement Too Big To Fail", Chris Hedges explains why we must never compromise our values or temper our legitimate criticism of America. Wrong is wrong. As he so eloquently puts it . . .

"What kind of nation is it that spends far more to kill enemy combatants and Afghan and Iraqi civilians than it does to help its own citizens who live below the poverty line? What kind of nation is it that permits corporations to hold sick children hostage while their parents frantically bankrupt themselves to save their sons and daughters? What kind of nation is it that tosses its mentally ill onto urban heating grates? What kind of nation is it that abandons its unemployed while it loots its treasury on behalf of speculators? What kind of nation is it that ignores due process to torture and assassinate its own citizens? What kind of nation is it that refuses to halt the destruction of the ecosystem by the fossil fuel industry, dooming our children and our children's children?"

I cannot think of better words to lay out the moral and political crisis facing our nation.

Personal message from Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to OWS

Occupy Wall Street No Longer Allowed Tarps and Sleeping Bags In Zuccotti As Of Tomorrow - Article in the Village Voice, posted October 13, 2011 at 3:05 pm.

"Hey, you wild and crazy demonstrators! Thanks for stopping by. We had some fun, didn't we? But all good things must come to an end. So please pack up your sleeping bags and go some place else. The southern states are a good bet this time of year. Much much warmer. Those of you who are unemployed and homeless, feel free to stop by one of the relief assistance offices we have set up here. Of course, we ran out of money so they really can't do much, but the people there are damn nice to talk to. And by the way, good luck with that overthrowing the system bit. When I was your age, I was quite the rebel too. I used to write funny messages on those little umbrellas they put in the fancy mix drinks at the cocktail parties my folks used to throw. So I know the whole rebellion thing first hand. Okay. Gotta go. My limo driver is pointing at his watch."

Exploding Hockey Pucks Intercepted at Canadian Border!

"Shoot to kill and don't eat any Canadian bacon."

Terrorism has reached new levels of sophistication. Fortunately for us Americans, the Department of Homeland Security has a leg up on the new breed of invading hordes coming from our "ally" to the north, as explained in this recently published article.
Yesterday, a huge shipment of exploding hockey pucks, some of them with the destructive capacity of nuclear weapons, was intercepted coming across the U.S.-Canadian border.
It was not immediately known at which specific locations these hockey pucks would rain their devastation on innocent and unsuspecting Americans. However, DHS analysts have speculated that Minneapolis, Minnesota and Buffalo, New York were among the likely targets. Detroit was also mentioned but as one gentleman commented off the record, "What would be the point?"

Here we have more evidence that the horrifying assault on the American Way can take any form and further proof _ as if we needed it _ that the War on Terror must be waged with even greater toughness and continue indefinitely.
What could be next?
Incendiary Gouda cheese or anthrax-laced chocolate from Holland?
iPhones manufactured in China embedded with hydrogen bombs set to go off when the new hit song from Pixie Lott is downloaded from the iTunes Store?
Crocodile Dundee-style bush hats with flesh-eating bacteria smeared on the hat bands?

Love dolls from Japan with spring-loaded Samurai swords?
It is obvious with the radicalization of Canada that America cannot trust anyone any more. Countries which were once allies are rapidly becoming more hotbeds of anti-Americanism, willing to host proliferating cells of Muslim radicals spreading their diseased vision of the world and determined to wreak havoc and destruction until every last American is killed.
We should all sleep a little sounder knowing that there are brave American border guards standing strong, patrolling our "Maginot Line" with Canada, and keeping America safe.

Terrific Job Opportunity!

 
The Air Force just announced that due to a huge shortage of pilots to fly the unmanned Predator and Reaper drones we are using to terrorize the planet, they will be training more of them by the hundreds over the coming months.
Qualifications merely include previous background playing video games, a strong desire to kill faceless enemy combatants or innocent civilians, the ability to eat potato chips with one hand while operating a game joy stick with the other, and enduring the ridicule of "real pilots" who fly actual planes and consider the drone jockeys just glorified nerds.
This terrific job opportunity is great news and a shot in the arm for America, beset over the past several years with an economy in a death spiral and unemployment numbers which have created great personal hardships and a cloud of despair over the entire nation.
Who said we couldn't create jobs?
God bless America!

Killing Us Softly

Voting is becoming more like playing a video game. Just as when you kill an opponent in a video battle no one actually dies, when you vote on the new electronic voting machines, your vote doesn't actually go to the candidate of your choice. It just looks like it does.

  

    "Another vote for a right wing political hack."

The new electronic voting machines made by Sequoia Voting Systems and Diebold have as a result of extensive laboratory tests been shown to be highly vulnerable to tampering, easily modified or reprogrammed to allow undetectable manipulation of the results. Whether by minor inexpensive alterations in the electronic circuitry or by sophisticated recoding of the software, elections are being taken out of the hands of the electorate and seized by the unscrupulous and traitorous few who would impose autocratic control and political tyranny, while preserving the illusion of democracy.

So there is a big difference between video games and this new form of voting fraud. In a video game, though heads explode and lasers cut people in half, no one really dies. But with what is going on with e-voting now, there is a victim. The victim is America, the greatest political experiment in history.

The victim is government by the people.

The victims are you and I.
