After Months of Partisan Wrangling, Wall Street & Pentagon Emerge Victorious on Debt Deal

DemocracyNow! – “…The deal includes no new tax revenue from wealthy Americans, provides no additional stimulus for the lagging economy, and will cut more than $2.1 trillion in government spending over 10 years, while extending the borrowing authority of the Treasury Department. The debt deal was a victory of sorts for the Pentagon. Rather than cutting $400 billion in defense spending through 2023, as President Barack Obama had proposed in April, it trims just $350 billion through 2024, effectively giving the Pentagon $50 billion more than it had been expecting over the next decade. We speak with William Hartung, director of the Arms and Security Project at the Center for International Policy, and Michael Hudson, professor of economics at the University of Missouri, Kansas City.”

Judge Napolitano Discusses the "Super Congress" Passed in Debt Bill

Is it greed? Is it power? Why would any member of Congress EVER cede their power to a Super Congress? Are these men and women that friggin STUPID??? I think they are!

Super Congress: the final nail in the coffin of representative democracy and freedom as we know it

Madison Ruppert, Contributing Writer
Activist Post

Cloaked in the fear surrounding the debt ceiling and a possible default is the most dangerous legislation that America has ever faced. If this passes, the Super Congress will make the PATRIOT Act look like a just and fair law. When six Republicans, six Democrats and the President have complete control over the legislature, we need to be concerned.

The most frightening aspect of this proposed “committee”, inaccurate though the term may be, is the fact that lawmakers in Washington have already openly admitted the unprecedented power they will be afforded.

Referring to the Super Congress as a committee is a bit deceitful. Calling it a Supreme Council of Overlords would be a bit more accurate.

"Many Americans Believe That The 2008-2009 Downturn Never Ended". They're Right

Washington’s Blog

Msnbc notes:

Many Americans believe that the 2008-2009 downturn never ended.

***

The U.S. has entered a second recession. [Note: That this would happen has been obvious to anyone paying attention. See this and this.] It may not be as bad as the first. Economists say that the Great Recession began in December 2007 and lasted until July 2009. That may be the way that the economy was seen through the eyes of experts, but many Americans do not believe that the 2008-2009 downturn ever ended. A Gallup poll released in April found that 29 percent of those queried thought the economy was in a “depression” and 26 percent said that the original recession had persisted into 2011.

(Indeed, more Americans believe the U.S. is in a depression than believe that the economy is growing). [Read more…]

Disastrous Outcomes From An Orchestrated Crisis h/t OpEdNews

July 29, 2011

By Paul Craig Roberts

With the world concerned about US financial credibility and the poor outlook for the US economy, now is not the time for the Republicans to grandstand on the public debt. The debt ceiling needed to be quietly raised. Instead, the Republicans started a fire and then threw gasoline on it, creating an inferno that could burn up the US social safety net or the US Treasury’s credit rating and the US dollar’s role as reserve currency or what remains of the separation of powers.

Consequently, world financial markets, currency markets, commodity markets, central banks, and mutual fund money market and bond funds are on pins and needles.

This level of irresponsibility is seldom seen even from American politicians. [Read more…]

The White House Obviously Does Not Now Nor Ever Had a Budget Plan

UPDATES are provided below about this ongoing farce or kabuki theater both the D and R and TP’s are playing out in DC as though they are actors in this drama and we are the viewers.

This man Carney is a master at avoiding questions. Talk about yakking in circles. It’s enough to make any sane person’s head spin.

By showing such blatant obfuscation he shows his hand – the White House doesn’t have a budget plan! They apparently have numbers on pieces of paper that were never handed out to the White House press corp nor to anyone else for all that matters. What kind of charade are these punks playing here?

Watch this clown. He’s getting paid a ton of dough by you, the taxpayer, telling you not a damned thing!

Last week, Carmen Álvarez Excelsior wrote a report for Salem-News.com claiming the notorious drug gang Los Zetas will attempt to overthrow the Mexican government next year using weapons sent by the United States.

Excelsior said the brutal gang uses an airport in Fort Worth, Texas, to fly the weapons into Mexico. Rejón Aguilar, one of the original seven members of Los Zetas who was recently captured by police, told Mexican officials the gang bought guns directly from the U.S. government under its Operation Fast and Furious.

h/t WUWT: Lord Monckton wins National Press Club debate on climate

Climate warministas and skeptinistas would be wise to set aside an hour to watch this debate b/w Lord Monckton and Australian Richard Denniss, former Green Party Advisor. As one reporter states “Note that Denniss’s entire argument was to follow the “consensus”. There was no attempt at all to explain the evidence contradicting this manufactured consensus.”

The National Press Club debate’s results:

Lord Monckton – 10
Former Greens adviser Richard Denniss – 1
Journalists – 0.

(Editor’s note: This is Part V in a five-part investigative series researched and written by Wayne Madsen of Wayne Madsen Reports. This series touches on how Obama’s grandfather, grandmother, mother, both fathers as well as himself all work/worked for the Central Intelligence Agency, hence, the title of the series “All in The Company”.

In this, the last of a five-part series on how Barack Obama, Jr. is a creation of the Central Intelligence Agency, WMR delves into the behavior modification, creative leadership, and phenomenological research programs that were at full throttle while Obama was an employee of CIA front Business International Corporation (BIC).

In 1984, while Obama was working as an editor at BIC in Manhattan, CIA deputy director for intelligence Robert Gates, who Obama retained as his Secretary of Defense from the Bush administration, renamed the CIA’s Political Psychology Division the Political Psychology Center (PPC) and transferred the group from the Office of Global Issues (OGI) to the Office of Scientific and Weapons Research (OSWR).
