Sins of omission are every bit as grave as sins of commission – Ann Barnhardt

Posted on May 20, 2012 by DRenegade

In case you are under a rock and haven’t heard, Breitbart.com released a piece citing Obama’s literary agent’s promotional bio of Obama, which Obama either wrote himself or explicitly edited and approved, which states that he was BORN IN KENYA.

Two points:

1. This proves that Obama is a stone-cold liar and con-man. Checkmate. Either he lied when he said he was born in Kenya, or he lied when he said he was born in Hawaii. The fact that he commissioned and released an OBVIOUSLY FORGED Hawaiian birth certificate certainly causes the Obama garbage scow to list to the side of the lie being that he was born in Hawaii.

Barack Obama IS A LIAR. He is a man of degenerate morality, and is a psychopath. Is anyone going to do anything about the fact that a con-artist psychopath is the Chief Executive of the largest economy in the world and the history of the world? Is anyone going to do anything about the fact that a con-artist psychopath is the Commander-in-Chief of the largest military force in the world and the history of the world? Is anyone going to do anything about the fact that the entire intelligence, law enforcement and bureaucracy of the United States government is either so incompetent that they couldn’t even vet ONE MAN or that they are complicit in Obama’s con?

Which segues into my second point . . . Continue reading →

European Crisis: Your 1 Minute Update from Zerohedge

Posted on May 20, 2012 by DRenegade

This is where we stand right about now.

  • Future of the euro area — German Finance Minister Schäuble and former ECB president Trichet float proposals on the future of the euro area – an elected EU president, political union, “federation by exception”. While more integration is likely as a response to the current crisis, progress is not likely to be quick.
  • France and the fiscal compact — German FM Schäuble and Eurogroup chairman Juncker are confident that French President Hollande and German Chancellor Merkel will find a common position on the fiscal and growth pact. New French FM Moscovici says France will not ratify the pact unless it includes ambitious commitments to promote economic growth. However, with results of the French public finance audit due on 1 June, fiscal consolidation may get more airtime in the legislative election campaign than during the presidential one.
  • EU bank resolution scheme: The head of the banking unit at the EU Commission indicated that a crisis management proposal to wind up failing banks would be adopted by the EU on June 6.
  • Spain — Economy secretary Fernando Jimenez was quoted by Reuters on Thursday saying that, with Spain having done everything necessary in terms of fiscal policy adjustments and structural reforms, “we think that there should be some type of reaction from the ECB”. He denied the story run in El Pais that Bankia has lost over €1bn in deposits, around 1% of retail and corporate accounts, in the past week. LCH.Clearnet hiked Spanish bond margins (>1.5 years) on Friday.  Continue reading →

MAIG Coordinators Paid as City Employees Saves Gun-Hater’s Money

Posted on May 20, 2012 by DRenegade

From All Nine Yards:

Here’s a great way to reduce overhead and be effective at running a national organization dedicated to infringing on the gun rights of everyday people all at the same time…  Have cities hire your people for you so that tax payers cover ¼ of your people’s salary and benefits, pay for most of their operational costs, and finance all of their other resources!  It also embeds your people as leaders in city government so that you don’t have to lobby there!

Sounds like another conspiracy theory from the tinfoil hat brigade… Right?

Back in March, while researching the repeal of some anti-gun ordinances, I stumbled across an Orlando City Council agenda item that grabbed my attention. It was, on its surface, just a mundane action item for the annual contract renewal of a city employee. But this city employee’s job title was, well, unique…

“Approving Employment Contract for the Grant-Funded Position of Mayors Against Illegal Guns Regional Coordinator.” Continue reading →

North Carolina teacher yells at student because of a question he asked about Obama!

Posted on May 20, 2012 by DRenegade

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjpWaESn_9g

Is this the state of a typical classroom in North Carolina? The students have no respect for this “teacher” who has lost control of both her students and herself. Respect must be earned and it is obvious that this teacher has not earned the respect of her class. Can you blame them?

The state owes us everything, and if we don’t get it, we’ll riot in the streets!

Posted on May 20, 2012 by DRenegade

It seems that Greece is exporting more than international debt as Greek students in Quebec are protesting tuition cost regulations. Since the government is subsidizing $60,000 to $75,000 over the course of their undergraduate studies, this is another example of how to define “fair share”: everything.

Greek Students Lead Riot at Quebec University

A team of Greek students organized and enforced a riot to take place in a university in Canada defying the anti-protest legislation that has passed in Quebec this month. They are protesting over amendments in the tuition costs regulation.

ALERT: possible NC Legislature DECEPTION

Posted on May 19, 2012 by Hans

On May16, 2012, text appears to have been changed to alter the purpose of NC HOUSE BILL H489

H489 was introduced March 2011 as AN ACT AUTHORIZING THE LEGISLATIVE RESEARCH COMMISSION TO STUDY NORTH CAROLINA’S MECHANICS’ LIEN AND BOND LAWS.

The description above is how the bill currently reads on the NC Legislature bill-look-up website:

http://www.ncleg.net/Applications/BillLookUp/LoadBillDocument.aspx?SessionCode=2011&DocNum=691&SeqNum=0

New text has alledgedly been substituted into the shell of this bill on May 16, 2012 to convert it to AN ACT TO AUTHORIZE THE POSSESSION, STORAGE, AND USE OF DANGEROUS WEAPONS DURING A STATE OF EMERGENCY FOR SELF DEFENSE IN A PERSON’S HOME OR FOR OTHER LAWFUL PURPOSES IN A PERSON’S HOME; AND TO AUTHORIZE THE TRANSPORTATION, POSSESSION, SALE, OR PURCHASE OF AMMUNITION FOR SELF DEFENSE PURPOSES IN A PERSON’S HOME OR FOR OTHER LAWFUL PURPOSES IN A PERSON’S HOME.

Seek His Face and Earn His Grace

Posted on May 19, 2012 by DRenegade

“God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God?  Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever.”    —  Thomas Jefferson 

What is happening in the US?  Are we turning away from God, as many claim, or are we witnessing just the opposite?  Are we seeing the error of our ways and turning towards Him?
Are we, as a nation, witnessing a Christian restoration or an atheist transformation?

I think the answer is that both forces are engaged in a great struggle.  The progressive nature of our courts combined with the misinterpretation of our Bill of Rights, as well as the Fourteenth Amendment, and combined with the enormous power of the liberal media have allowed the atheist movement to have greater force than it deserves.  To counter that movement, Christians and Christian organizations must fight against incredible odds, most notably the courts, the “wall of separation,” and the liberally-biased media.  It comes as no surprise that our government and the “establishment” is harboring an increasing hostility towards faith.  Yet the Christian resistance is growing.

Of Deutsche Marks, Lira, Peseta and Coming Troubles

Posted on May 19, 2012 by LT

(New American)  The Munich-based Foundation for Family Business has filed a criminal lawsuit against the Bundesbank, the central bank of Germany, alleging that the board of the bank has hidden the true scale of the risk borne by ordinary German citizens in the bailouts.

The sovereign debt crisis in the European Union can be summed up fairly simply: The governments of overspending nations are asking the governments of fiscally prudent nations to prop them up. The prudent nations, whose governments pay their obligations out of revenue, rather than by selling bonds, tend to be those in the more financially conservative parts of Europe, such as Finland, Holland, and Germany. Those nations that are waist deep in debt, whose bond offerings have in some cases been reduced to junk bond status, tend to be in the south of Europe around the Mediterranean Sea.  This has left the citizens in the more prudent nations rather distressed about the costs of these bail-outs.

How upset are Germans these days? Polls have shown that 56 percent of Germans want to abandon the Euro and return to the old Deutschemark.

TEOTWAWKI Fact or Bold Fiction? Read and Decide…

Collapse Watch News and Commentary
Mid-May Edition – May 13, 2012
In Plain Sight

Events are beginning to occur very quickly now. It has been less than two weeks since the last newsletter was emailed and already big events are once again happening in Europe. Both Greece and France voters ousted pro-austerity politicians and replaced the France and Greece governments with anti-austerity political leaders. This is now the 4th and 5th time that this has occurred since the beginning of 2012.

Two months ago, Hungary’s government collapsed when its legislature refused to agree to the austerity measures that Brussel’s Eurozone ministers, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the European Central Bank (ECB) demanded. Several weeks later, the same thing happened in the Czech Republic. Less than two weeks ago the Dutch government collapsed for the same reason. And now France and Greece have turned against the austerity policies. These are policies that the big banks and their paid politicians have portrayed to the European Union’s electorate as the only viable solution. These policies ensure that the big banks are bailed out upon the backs of the EU citizens.
