President Obama and congressional Democrats are claiming that a giant new entitlement program will reduce red ink. It's tempting to laugh and dismiss such a preposterous claim. After all, these are the same people who told us that squandering $787 billion on a so-called stimulus would create jobs....

World history has often been "changed" by a single battle, man and occasionally by a single bullet.
Nathan Rothschild sent a trusted courier named Rothworth to Waterloo where he stayed on the edge of the battlefield. Once the battle was decided, Rothworth took off for the Channel, and delivered the news of Wellington's victory to Nathan Rothschild a full 24 hours before Wellington's own courier. Nathan Rothschild hurried to the London Stock market and stood in his usual position. All eyes were on him as Rothschild had a legendary communications network. Rothschild stood there looking forlorn and suddenly started selling. The other traders believed that this meant he had heard that Napoleon had won so they all started selling frantically. The market subsequently plummeted, soon everyone was selling (British Government Bonds), but then Rothschild secretly started buying them through his agents on the floor, for a fraction of what they were worth. A lot of these consuls were able to be converted to Bank of England stock, which is how Rothschild took over the control of the Bank of England and therefore the British money supply.
Some people ask, why do bankers want war? Simple, bankers finance both sides in a war.
They do this because war is the biggest debt generator of them all. A nation will borrow any amount for victory, even though the banks have already predetermined the outcome. The ultimate loser is loaned just enough money to hold out a vain hope of victory and the ultimate winner is given enough to ensure that he does win.
How do the banks ensure they will get all their money back? Easy, such loans are given on the guarantee that the victor will honor the debts of the vanquished. Never mind the thousands of troops that give their lives on the pretext it is for the honor of their respective nations, when it is actually for the profits of bankers.
This inordinately stupid legend originated in an anti-semitic tract put out in the mid 1840's, and has been kept alive ever since by useful idiots. Please do your research.
Eh, I don't think either way would have effected the ultimate outcome of Russia.
I have heard it all now. Who knew it was the banks this whole time?
I wish we would have been building them all along. There are many reasons. One of them is because that's what I do for a living. Unfortunately, GE is also big into nuclear.

In 1812, the year of the dreadful winter which destroyed the Grand Armee, atmospheric CO2 concentration was 390 parts per million- that's *higher* than today's 385 ppm.
sounds like you were there…..might you be in the bloodline???? hmmmmmmmmm
Likely origin of this individual's moniker:

No….just one Bank ………audit the FED…. and you shall begin to understand how the FED creates fiat money from thin air, then loan it to US Treasury and Banks…..collect interest secured by US taxpayers…..
soooooo…… the more we spend, increase US debt levels, borrow fiat money…..the more they plan to take…………..and deposit in Euro banks from America to transfer wealth to a few……hmmmm…..
sounds like the US taxpayer is getting a Fist job……backed by Congress………..
you are getting warm my man……but, keep looking……do your research…..
I was unaware of this site, so let me read through it and I'll get back to you as to its authenticity….Thanks for the lead…..peace
Thx, RW&J! I hadn't seen that one before.
I can't remember who said it, but I always liked the quote along the lines "Anti-semitism is just socialism for idiots"; you can see the same in BF's post below re. the banks.
"Anti-semitism is just socialism for idiots"
I love it! But it seems a bit redundant, don't you think? I mean, socialist are none too bright, in general…
STOP BLACKMAIL, Bubbles Obozo & EPA has declared that if Congress does not Pass Crap & Trade, EPA will implement the law with even harsher regulations. Of course, Obozo was absent when this proclaimation was made because Bubbles is a coward. These regulations if passed will cripple our Economy, Millions of Jobs will be lost, Gasoline way up, Electricity way up, everything moved using energy way up, Food way up. Bubbles said he wanted to spend $ 200 Billion of your tax money to add jobs. Crap & Trade will cancel any of those jobs. Call Your Reps Tell Them To STOP EPA NOW!!!
Clearly, it was Bush's fault.
Hey, somebody had to say it.
Lol, I think that's why it has to be spelled out to them over and over….BF ought to realize that the racial purity he seems to want only comes from excessive inbreeding, and that certainly has consequences. But I guess that if he is one of those consequences, he won't recognize it…..
I totally agree with your last comment because I've done a lot of research on this and the FED is poison. It's creation in the early 1900's was the beginning of this country's demise. The aim was to control the financial sector, therefore controlling the government. Yes, a privately owned institution controls this country.
"When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that justifies it."

Do the Jews have anything to do with this?
I hear the Liberal Fascist Militants are going to start a BIG site of their own, to counter Breitbart: Big Peni$…
Just as Napoleon met his Waterloo, so will Barry Obunghole.
And so typical of libs to reverse the meanings of words – should be Little Peni$.
Well I would counter that it will be Big Fist!…what else would you expect?
was it 80% of the Jewish population that voted for Obama??? check it out dude… and admit you did vote for Obama, or that you disown the other 80% that did……simple choice
How about an acorn slogan contest? My submission: ACORN: Getting unemployed, underage immigrant girls off their butts and on their backs!
Bohemond: Did you find this in the East Anglia circular file, lol?
Could you cite for us your actual source for this?
Napolean & Europe were representatives of the 4th Empire, acdg to the Bk of Daniel. It is an empire that is allowed to exist for the longest period of time and of course various leaders come and go…It is a divided empire.that has a huge world influence in the last times of their existence. There destruction for eternity is also foretold, and they are never to return.
Big Assholes has a nice ring to it.
Ask and ye shall receive!

Thanks for the link…but I doubt the facts will change some of those alarmist buttheads minds…
It's a shame you harbor such prejudices. Hopefully, you'll get over them one day.
No, if you want to know who the other persons doing this, you may want to look at those who are Luciferians.
They are shifting the blame towards the Hebrews and carrying on the longest family feud in history.
Thanks to Napoleon we have Louisiana!
And our flag was still there. Oh say does that star bangled banner yet wave….
Sorry, but identity politics – the politics of race, tribe, ethnic background, and all other group think categorizations – really are part and parcel of the left. As for me, I happy to support Sarah Palin, who has made no secret of her support for both American Jewry, and for Israel.
Exactly, did you know Kennedy was killed becuase he tried to abolish the Fed?
Napoleon's tomb is big enough to hold 8 billion gummy bears. I read that somewhere while i was living in Paris.
I've been to his tomb! The French are such geniuses that if you go there you actually bow your head to Napoleon! Vive la France et Etas Unis!
Yes.
And thanks to Louisiana, we have ACORN.
Should Napeloen get the credit?
I don't think Jefferson or Napoleon could ever dreamed that scenario.
Lafayette was the last good Frenchman.
99% of this country has no idea who he is. Just a street in NYC! I love the French. The people are great the French not the foreigners living in France big difference. Where you in Patton's 3rd?
Rather superb entry, definitely useful stuff. Never ever considered I’d find the facts I need right here. I have been looking everywhere in the internet for some time now and had been starting to get discouraged. Fortunately, I happened across your blog and received precisely what I was searching for.
