“Now that EPA has declared hay a pollutant, every farmer and rancher that stores hay, or that leaves a broken hay bale in the field, is potentially violating EPA rules and subject to an EPA enforcement action,” responded Callicrate. “How far are we going to let this agency go before we stand up and do something about it?”

The Telegraph in the United Kingdom has published the following article concerning fraudulent claims concerning climate change. As Europe is forced to acknowledge the failures of their “green revolution”, let us hope that our media and administration will also be forced to admit their hypocrisy in light of the Solyndra scandal.

Scientists claim that the new Times Atlas has got it wrong on the melting of the Greenland icesheet. What other exaggerations have been made about climate change?

The negative outlook reflects Standard & Poor’s view of risks to the Italian government’s fiscal targets over 2011-2014, as well as the uncertainties on the timely implementation of growth-enhancing reforms. In our view, these risks would stem from weaker output growth than we currently assume in our revised base case. In addition, political gridlock could contribute to delayed policy responses to new macroeconomic challenges and result in significant fiscal slippage.
If one or more of these risks materializes, Italy’s net general government debt could increase from its already high level. In that event, we could lower the long- and short-term ratings again. We could also lower the ratings if, against our expectations, the current account deficit remained higher than 10% of current account receipts beyond 2013. This would occur if Italy’s trade balance did not improve or if the income deficits continued to widen because of rising refinancing costs.
On the other hand, if the government manages to gather political support for implementing growth-enhancing structural reforms, which in turn increase prospects for a material reduction in the net public debt burden in the medium term, we could affirm the ratings at the current level.
As is typical, ratings on issues and issuances dependent on these long- and short-term ratings may be revised as a result of today’s rating action.
Futures not happy:
U.S. stock futures extended losses after Italy’s credit rating was cut one level to A by Standard & Poor’s, reinforcing concern Europe’s debt crisis will spread.
While the media has focused the world’s attention on the economic collapse of Greece, Standard & Poor’s has downgraded Italy’s credit rating. If Italy falls, the exposure to France’s banking institutions will affect the entire European Union.

A surprise downgrade of Italy by Standard and Poor’s early today (local time) has added to concerns of contagion in the debt-stressed euro zone, with local shares likely to react negatively to the news.
Here is the latest press release from the president’s campaign manager. The president stated today:
“This is not class warfare — it’s math“
He is wrong. This is class warfare and a continuation of this administration’s attempts to divide the county, divert attention from solutions and lead the nation into an economic depression.
As for his corollary statement concerning his mathematical prowess: the budget deficit in 30 months under this pretender in chief is the only testimony the nation needs to calculate.

What happened on Saturday in New York for the “Occupy Wall Street” protest? The media coverage before, during and after the event was minimal. A live web cam of Wall Street during the protest showed little activity.
The police actually closed off Wall Street to block the protest. An alternative location was offered and rejected by the protesters which were estimated to be about 1000. The following video shows interviews near Wall Street during the protest and Saturday night in the dark.

President Obama has celebrated the birth of “Democracy” in the Middle East as a result of the Arab Spring. As we now know, the Muslim Brotherhood has a different view of Democracy in Egypt and Libya is now reconstituted as an Islamic state.
The excerpt below gives a viewpoint from Iran on the future of the Middle East. As the question of a Palestinian state controlled by radical Islamists is being debated in the United Nations, Israel’s future may be determined by the actions of the United States. Will the Obama administration stand up and veto Palestinian statehood? The consequences of Palestinian statehood and a Democratic (Islamist) Middle East will be felt around the world in the upcoming months.

From left to right, WND’s Jerome Corsi, Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Surprise, AZ tea party leaders Julie Wise, Jim Wise & Jeff LichterThe following background information was posted as a comment on “A Posse for the President” article from a member of the Surprise, AZ Tea Party. We have to ask ourselves how the United States, a republic built on the rule of law, has to rely on a sheriff instead of the Department of Justice or Congress to ensure that the Constitution is followed?
I want to extend my thanks to the Surprise, AZ Tea Party, Jerome Corsi and Sheriff Arpaio for their work to ensure that our country’s moral and legal principles are held to the standards of our founding fathers.

Comment from Brian Reilly
Tim Geithner’s latest trip to Europe to implement a “printing press solution” to their financial problems has been rejected. Germany (throught the ECB) has decided to maintain their sovereignty and follow a sound monetary policy that will ensure their country’s and people’s fiscal future. The European Union will not follow in the footsteps of the United States and pursue financial suicide.
The following excerpt from ECB Governing Council member Jens Weidmann from an interview with Der Spiegel shows that Europe has not abandoned common sense when addressing their fiscal solvency:
“Once monetary policy starts to be used, there will always appear to be reasons to suggest it should continue to be used,” he told Spiegel.
“Of course in such an unusual crisis it would be wrong to stubbornly dwell on principles. But it would be just as wrong to throw out all established rules of monetary policy by citing a general emergency,” said Weidmann, who heads Germany’s Bundesbank.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky explains how much of your money belongs to the government. Why does government have such a problem with logic? Illegal aliens are not illegal. Our money is not our money. The president is not eligible to be president and evidence to the contrary is ridiculed. The Department of Justice does not follow the rule of law. They label patriots terrorists and terrorists as freedom fighters (look at Libya).

It seems that our government is not our government since they are not representing us.

Me neither.
Until I found Ten Random Videos on The Blaze.
One of the comments on that page sums up the day succinctly:
When “prolatariat” revolutions are undertaken by pseudo-intellectual bourgeoisie white kids who’ve never worked a day in their lives (ie supported a family, bought a house or a car, paid bills, had any responsibility etc) it’s pretty hard to take them seriously.
Marx is rolling in his grave due to the irony.
I think the loose collective of the Tea Party has more rights to call themselves the American Prolatariat than these twits do.
That’s more irony. But I doubt these kids understand it…
The Tea Party should adopt the language of the Left. It will make their heads explode.
The Blaze followed up later in the day with Reporting From Inside the ‘Comrades Ranks’.
Sheriff Joe Arpaio has formed a posse to investigate the forged birth certificate issued by the White House. There has never been a question of the certificate’s authenticity: no document analyst has or would certify it.
Since the legislative branch would not launch an investigation and the legal challenges have been dismissed without justification, Sheriff Arpaio formed a posse and the investigators will be authorized to utilize subpoena power.
This is a sad day for America when our nation’s government has been usurped and people who stand up for the Constitution are ridiculed as terrorists. Continue reading
