I also want you to consider the testimony of Alan Greenspan who, when he testified before the Senate Immigration Subcommittee at the behest of the Chairman of that subcommittee, Senator Charles Schumer, Greenspan called for opening up the H-1B visa program to lower the wages of America's skilled workers! Hard to believe, but true!

Hillary Clinton’s financial disclosure for the year 2007 shows that
the former first lady liquidated her entire equity portfolio,
approximately $20 million, in may 2007. Her market timing was almost
perfect as she sold all of her stocks only 500 points and 5 months
before the market peak. Is Senator Clinton a star investor or did she
know something? One has to wonder why anyone with such incredible talent for trading would ever waste their time in politics?

Madoff is a side show. He stole a sum of money by telling people that they could get paid for the things they wanted…huge returns without risk and without responsibility. Now his customers have “discovered” that like PT Barnum said, “there’s a sucker born every minute”… and they were the suckers. And that’s sad, very sad. But the saddest of all is that the tax payers are paying a thousand fold of what Madoff’s suckers paid…and they didn’t even get a ticket to the circus.

Racketeering, conspiracy, fraud, theft, misuse of public funds, abuse of power, accepting bribes for favors (Ask old Ted Stevens of Alaska about that) and I could go on to list hundreds of felony actions against America by our supposed leaders that surely require someone be held to account.

Guantanamo detainees receive more privileges than U.S. citizens receive in American prisons, Kyndra Rotunda, a former military lawyer assigned to Gitmo, tells Newsmax. Maj. Rotunda, who was at Gitmo from 2002 to 2006 while in the U.S. Army Individual Ready Reserve, says Australian Taliban member David Hicks demanded — and received — an $800 Brooks Brothers suit to wear in court. Despite the spiffy suit paid for by U.S. taxpayers, Hicks was convicted

The giant retailer's low prices often come with a high cost. Wal-Mart's relentless pressure can crush the companies it does business with and force them to send jobs overseas. Are we shopping our way straight to the unemployment line?

I think that the executives who "play ball" with Jesse Jackson know exactly what they are dealing with: a racial extortionist whose real agenda is not civil rights, but his own enrichment.

Benito Mussolini said, “Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.” This model of economic fascism was adopted by Germany and Italy in the 1930s. And, I submit to you that such a marriage between the state and corporate power has taken place here in the United States. Does this sound like a baseless contention? Allow me to substantiate it with history.

At America’s Survival, Inc., we are continuing our public education campaign on the threats posed by communism and the United Nations. We expected opposition from the liberal media. But we are also running into a brick wall in the “conservative” media. The latest scandal is that both the daily and weekly editions of the Washington Times have killed our advertising drawing public attention to Matt Drudge’s censorship of our ads. That is, they refused to run our ads about the censored ads. Can it get any worse than this?

A Drug Enforcement Administration report last year indicted that Venezuela has become a key transshipment point for narcotics due to "rampant corruption at the highest levels of law enforcement and a weak judicial system". Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez terminated joint anti-drug operation with United States drug agents from the DEA. The paranoid president accused DEA agents of being spies. The enormous amount of corruption within the Venezuelan government coupled with its president's seizure and control of the press has made the country ripe for the transit of illegal drugs and other contraband. No journalist in Venezuela who wants to remain out of prison or worse will report on the corruption, drug trade, crime or any other issue that would embarrass the Chavez government.

Ray Hunt, the Texas oil man who landed a controversial oil production deal with Iraq’s Kurdistan regional government, has enjoyed close political and business ties with Vice President Dick Cheney dating back a decade – and to the Bush family since the 1970s. Despite those longstanding connections – and Hunt’s work for George W. Bush as a member of the President’s Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board – the Bush administration expressed surprise when Hunt Oil signed the agreement last September.

It’s critical to the power elite’s plans for global control that the public be kept ignorant about important information. For example, some years ago I filed a Freedom of Information request with the Department of Defense (DOD) regarding Pakistani intelligence chief General Mahmud Ahmed’s visit here just before 9/11. General Ahmed had $100,000 wired to 9/11 ringleader Mohamed Atta, and just before 9/11 several high-level Pentagon officials suddenly cancelled their travel plans for the morning of 9/11. Finally, I received a partial DOD response dated May 20, 2008 which indicated Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz had an office call with General Ahmed and others on September 10, 2001. Blacked out was “U.S.-Pakistani Military and Intelligence Relations” and most other sections. Although the DOD response indicated General Ahmed met with National Security Council members September 5 and 6, 2001, blacked out is where General Ahmed was on September 4. The DOD response also indicated there was an office call between Assistant Secretary of Defense Peter Rodman and General Ahmed in which Rodman “recalled past personal experience working with Pakistan while on former Secretary of State Kissinger’s staff.”
