Our Biggest Creditor {China} Tells Us "The good old days of borrowing are over"

( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers. "They discussed the euro area and the U.S. debt downgrade. Both agreed the importance of working together, monitoring the situation closely

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth As the liberal/progressive media and bloggers attempt to trash Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey over the George Washington Bridge lane closings, ostensibly because he is a formidable threat to their darling would be 2016 democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton, there remains NO EVIDENCE he had any involvement or was aware of the actions by his underlings. If Governor Christie indeed had no involvement in the closings, and at this point is is prudent to assume he didn't, the valid question is... should he have known? If we believe an executive sets the tone and culture for his administration then indeed the actions of his loyal staff at least become somewhat understandable. Wrong, but understandable. From NorthJersey.com Nothing in the approximately 2,000 documents released on Friday by the Assembly committee investigating the matter suggest that Christie knew of the lane-closure scheme beforeh
More Thoughts On Reasonable Firearm Control...
by: Les Carprnter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny In the wake of the Sandy Hook tragedy in which 20 innocent children lost their live to a sick and mentally unstable individual the subject of gun control has remained center stage. This is understandable, and as it should be. The pursuit of finding improved methods to better identify unstable individuals and thereby keep firearms out of the hands of such individuals is a worthy pursuit. As we consider how to deal with increasing societal violence we must find a happy medium that will both improve public safety and preserve our second amendment rights. It can be done, if both sides of the gun control debate will start listening to each other rather talking A T each other. We have heard from the NRA's Wayne LaPierre, who has offered essentially the same solution as the organization did in 2007. Put armed police guards in every school in America. Not anything most suburban and rural Mom's and Dad's will b

Race Baiting at the Highest Level of the Federal Government...?
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Lib e rty -vs- Tyr a nny I listened to the full Presidential news conference this afternoon. Obama said some things that made sense. Then he made the following remarks that IMNHO told the nation in full agenda with respect to said issue. Having a in depth discussion of race relations might very well be appropriate and a general discussion is something that MOST American's would welcome. Using the Zimmerman verdict ks simply the WRONG event at possibly the right time. However, don't expect the President, the Department of Justice, or the liberal media or ultra liberal populace to understand what this means. If I can find a video of the full and complete news conference it will be posted later. Via: Memeorandum Update : via You Tube. Your views and thoughts are most welcome. Left and or Right leaning...
It's Going To Be Close, Brace Yourself For Continued Polarization of America, Especially if Obama Loses...
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny The race is close, very close, with the momentum shifting to Romney. However, my take is the shift, as significant as it has been, came too late and too little. Progressives no doubt are biting their nails because as much as they prefer not to acknowledge it, this one is a real cliff hanger. Reminiscent of 2000. It is true if Obama loses this one progressives throughout the land will be wailing and gnashing their teeth. For them it will be a great undoing of their greatest hopes and dreams. Of course the other fifty percent of America will view it quite differently. So, as the polls close tomorrow, and the tabulating of the vote goes late into the night, we can be sure of a few thing... The nation will remain polarized, the puppet masters behind the curtains will continue calling the shots, the debt and deficits will continue, no mater who wins. And America will continue to ask why. Tomorrow, as I visit my polli
The ObamaCare Divide Creating Two America's...

(Wikimedia Commons/ Angr) This site is not a supporter of the mechanisms of ObamaCare and questions whether it in fact will ultimately make health care either more accessible r affordable. Except for those receiving a subsidy or are getting it free. All that aside I do agree with following Moyers & Company article stating that ObamaCare is widening the gap between red America and blue America. Something needed to be done with our health care and insurance system. Most agree that the pre ObamaCare system needed some work. Unfortunately reason failed American politics and what we have achieved is an ever more polorized country with no end to the polarization. Perhaps it is time to officially form a Blue United States of America and a Red United States of America. Because in reality we are moving ever closer to the breaking point. Th

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny at the 44th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival Every so often we have our views called into check. Whenever this happens the wise person considers the perspective, as well as the experiences of the person calling the entrenched views into check. In doing so one learns and therefor grows. At least that is how it should work. Milos Forman , the immigrant from Czechoslovakia who later won Academy Awards for best director for the films “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” and “Amadeus”, provides just such a check for America. He clearly, and accurately describes American politicians misunderstanding of totalitarianism and western European democratic socialism in his July 10th op-ed piece in the New York Times . He ends the article with a very poignant warning. Mr. Obama, and politicians of both major parties, as well as every American citizens ought to consider his words... and warning.

ReplyDelete"Anger dwells only in the bosom of fools." --Albert Einstein
That is an irrational and foolish reaction to this tragedy.
Yes it is. A response shared by many frightened people.
ReplyDeleteGet ready for 24/7 non stop FOX News fuelling the bonfires.
Radicalized Islamic terrorists are a huge problem and threat to the civilized world. However, not all Muslims are terrorists and there are Muslim leaders, the President of Egypt for one, who are speaking against the terrorist insanity. These are the people who must not be alienated.
Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, leader of the Islamic State, has made his strategy known: He WANTS to foment a paradigm war between the secular democracies of the West and militant jihadis of the Islamic world. His purpose behind brutal and savage tactics is to engender mutual enmity and foment a vicious cycle of reprisals and revenge. Atrocities are recruitment tools, and bloggers – in adding fuel to the fire of mutual hatred through incitement - fall sucker to these tactics. They are giving al Qaeda and Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi exactly what they want.
ReplyDeleteYou will not defeat extremism by wantonly and gratuitously stereotyping every person of the Islamic faith, thus feeding into this vicious cycle … which serves as a recruitment tool for terrorists.
Subject blogger and his followers are more than “unhinged” and “irrational.” They are also IRRESPONSIBLE in the extreme! However, there is more than merely self-righteous indignation on display in subject blog. The man is a shameless pathological narcissist who calls attention to himself, grandstands, and broadcasts his grandiosity without regard to the implications of his blather. Please note how subject discussion thread beneath subject post metastasizes cancer-like into a rage against the French, against ‘Zionist communists,’ against the Jews, against old WWII grudges, and of course “libruls.” The place is a veritable cesspool of hatred.
"..,not all Muslims are terrorists.." They are in the twisted, xenophobic minds who advocate deporting Americans of the Muslim faith, and they are the same type of American who would have applauded the internment of Americans of Japanese heritage during WWII. It is endlessly amusing to read their rantings about this issue--deporting American born Muslims, because they are the same people who bloviate constantly about how Mr. Obama is lawless and "shreds" the Constitution. Meanwhile, when we read of terrorism here or abroad, their first reaction is to...wait for it...SHRED THE CONSTITUTION AND DEPORT AMERICANS WHO PRACTICE A FAITH THEY HATE. Whew. There's so much stupid in that idea, one wonders if they've gone all funny in the head.
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to find good press on Muslims. Meanwhile, huge
ReplyDeletemedia notes:
"Murdoch Says Muslims Must Be Held Responsible For France Terror Attacks News Corp boss tweets to say even peaceful Muslims must bear burden of deadly Charlie Hebdo death toll ‘until they destroy growing jihadist cancer’ .
Murdoch, of course, is foolish. During the reign of terror from the domestic terrorist group, the KKK, were all Christians worldwide held responsible for the murders they committed?
DeleteWere all Christians worldwide held responsible for the genocide Christians in Germany and other European countries committed against the Jews and other minorities? The Catholic Church in Germany was the strongest, and yet I don't recall in reading history, any prelate condemning Hitler for killing Jews. Most members of the Nazi Party were Christians. Composed mostly by members of the Lutheran Evangelical tradition, members of the apostate Nazi-inspired Positive Christianity sect and some of the Catholic faith tradition respectively.
Isn't that part of the issue BB? Why is it our job, from the US to police this? Why can't, or won't, Arab countries with strong Muslim populations take care of this? Why are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?
ReplyDeleteAt some point, in the 21st century, it does not seem unreasonable to ask why this continues to happen and if there is anything that can be done to stop it.
Dave asked: "Why can't, or won't, Arab countries with strong Muslim populations take care of this? Why are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?"
DeleteMOST of the Muslim/'Arab countries are extreme, radical, and genocidal. There are only a very few which recognize the rights of Israelis to live. The rest have an open call for complete extermination/expulsion.
Even the supposedly moderate UAE is led by those who want to kill off the Israelis. Their refusal to condemn this terrorism goes hand in hand with their genocidal views.
IMO, Dave, the subject countries are examples of a state religion; the mullahs, etc being very
Deletepowerful inside those governments. I agree, given the aid and support we provide some of those countries, we should have some clout, but apparently not.
My above comment was about the stance of the government of these countries and their official policies when i said "MOST of...."
Delete"Subject blogger and his followers are more than 'unhinged' and 'irrational' .They are also IRRESPONSIBLE in the extreme!”
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be the only way fearful people know how to react to disturbing world and domestic events. We can be thankful no one like that is in charge of any levers of power in the government.
When I read that sort of psychotic rhetoric, I can't help but imagine that the person who indulges in it looks and acts like THIS.
There can be little if any question but what "subject blogger and his followers" would act like your links depiction. However I imagine they likely would look much worse.
ReplyDeleteFree Nazi over there said: "Do I think all Muslims should be killed?
ReplyDeleteOf COURSE NOT. However, I do most fervently believe they should be driven out of all the Western Countries, then SEGREGATED, ISOLATED "
Of course. Once they are all "isolated" then it makes it so easy for FreeColClink to kill them all.
Shaw said: "and they are the same type of American who would have applauded the internment of Americans of Japanese heritage during WWII"
Well, I find little difference between that WWII situation and FleaBathe's call for ethnic cleansing of all considered to be "Muslims".
RN: I had not been there for weeks. Gee, they sure use the Constitution for toilet paper over there don't they?
It certainly seems so. Too bad really but it is what it is and it seems to be getting worse.
DeleteWhy are they not passing laws that prohibit this type of behavior by fanaticized Muslim sects?
DeleteShort answer. Because no other nation has crafted or originated a system of government so sensitive, so up-to-the-minute, so comprehensively fair and so much self-regulating as has the fledgling republic, the United States of America.
Simply stated, it is not fair to compare other systems of governance to our own.
So, what do we do differently in the light of all this, RN?
DeletePerhaps properly warranted surveilance of the of those involved in actual terror mosques. And for God's sake, stop funding the actual terrorists (no more mistakes like sending a billion US taxpayer dollars to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt).
This last one should be basic. If we can't even do this, we probably can't do anything.
Other suggestions?
Flying Junior: I agree. I think.
DeleteWith this caveat; As bad as our system of government can be it remains the best system yet devised by humans. Until recently (think in terms of the past 30 years or so) the nation has systematically improved on the imperfect system originally designed by our founders. It seems the reactionary wing of the Tea Party is bent on returning us to the unenlightened middle ages.
It may very well be "fair" to compare other systems of government to our own if we wish. What is not fair is to attempt to force our system of government, our values, or our principles on another culture, their value system, or their government.
We have every right to defend our own system and values on our shores. We have no right to meddle in the affairs of other nations unless they ask us to or unless we do so because of an act of aggression against our people and nation.
... stop funding the actual terrorists ...
ReplyDeletedmarks: PRECISELY!
Thanks... I was just thinking, aside form the arguments over the balance between security and persecution.... and over military intervention... I'd think that the one simple thing is that we should stop directly funding the terrorists. Seems relatively simple.
DeleteAnother example proving yet again the narrow minded intolerance and hate some on the right pride themselves on.
