With Barack Obama comfortably holding onto the lead with only a few weeks to go before the election ... the federal government taking over the banking industry in a text-book example socialism ... the world is becoming a very strange place.

Maybe it's just me ... but I fear for our country, especially if Barack Hussein Obama is elected president.

His corrupt background and shady associations simply do not matter to most.  Our American ideals have been completely thrown out the window, in a mass effort to promote a young man who nobody even knew less than 2 short years ago.  For Obama is no ordinary politician ... he is "The One" - a Cult of Personality.

Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga claims to be Barack Obama's cousin.  His claim is both true and false.  ...

In what has become a common theme for the Obama campaign, a man gets detained and deported.

Jerome Corsi, ...

I don't want to get all conspiratorial and everything, but things keep getting stranger.

The DOW dropped below 10,000, even after Washington passed "The Fleecing of American Taxpayers Act".  It's obvious - the markets don't feel the same about the package as Washington does.  I wonder ...
Why would an investor commit capital where if things go wrong, the government will step in and totally wipe them out?

The artificial credit expansion of the Federal Reserve over the past 15 years is reaching it's ultimate conclusion.  The massive technological advancements which have increased productivity, have only masked the run-away inflation we've experienced.  Instead of seeing large reductions in price and a healthier economy, the "money and credit" binge has put us in the position of potential disaster.  As measured by M3 (money supply in banknotes and deposits), the money supply has grown at an annual average rate of 10%.

In the short-run, artificial money expansion appears to be beneficial, but simply increasing the medium of exchange (dollars) does nothing to create real wealth.  First we had the stock market bubble, then the real estate bubble, and since it's quite obvious that the fall isn't over, you have to ask yourself ... what's next?

The federal government seems to be preparing for something. I can't say for sure what it is, but civil unrest is certainly on their minds.

In North Korea, the children sing songs of praise to their leader, Kim Jung Il.  Barack Obama has ...

The bill that became law this week to save us from alleged Armageddon, is an abomination of everything ...

Nevermind that "we the people" were overwhelmingly AGAINST this Leviathan, the House of Representatives joined the Senate today, approving a pork-laden bailout bill that could cost the taxpayers $1 trillion, completely nullifying the US Constitution, a document that the Washington Elite feels is best used to wipe their ass.

This latest scandal by Washington to fleece the American taxpayers put the final nail in the coffin.  There's no need for a funeral, because there's nothing left to honor.  Just bury the Republican party, and we'll wipe our hands clean  ... they are no different than Democrats anymore.

Oh, I can hear the arguments now ... abortion, judicial appointments, yack, yack, yack ... none of it changes the one, most fundamental fact - both parties believe in government, more than they believe in you!  We just took one small step for man, and one giant leap for socialism.

Jonathan Hoenig explains perfectly the "real deal" in the sudden need for the federal government to take-over everything.
There was a time I wrote extensively about promising sectors and stocks. I looked at companies' new products, analyzed earnings and tracked moving averages of securities big and small. I miss those days.
In recent weeks, those fundamentals have all but ceased to matter now that politicians are pulling the economy's strings. From restricting trade, such as through the short-sale ban that was just extended, to outright seizure, as was the case with AIG (AIG: 4.39*, +0.37, +9.19%), we are witnessing the biggest expansion in government power since the New Deal.
Power is precisely what the "bailout" bill, which cleared the Senate Wednesday night, is ultimately about. Uncle Sam wants even greater control over the economy, your money and your life.

The closer we get to an election, the more the rumors start flying.  There's an interesting rumor flying ...

As everyone already knows, somebody hacked into Governor Sarah Palin's personal e-mail account and posted screen shots on ...

Sometimes I wonder ... don't you?

I'm not making any claim here, nor do I necessarily believe elections in ...

Who is this guy? Really ... who is Barack Obama?

We know he's a young guy, just 45 years ...
