Donald Trump Is Barack Obama

Given the steady deterioration of the United States since the 2004 reelection of George W. Bush, Donald Trump's sudden popularity among Tea Party circles doesn't surprise me. Trump calls for Obama's birth certificate, but other than race is Trump different from Obama? Obama was involved with crooked real estate entrepreneur Tony Rezko. Trump has spent his career in crooked real estate dealings. Obama rose through the ranks of the most corrupt political city in America: Chicago. Trump has been significantly subsidized in the most corrupt business city in America: New York. Neither have work experience that justifies their being president. Both have lived off government. Obama is so ethically challenged we can't get a straight answer from him about his background. Trump is so ethically challenged that he has spent a lifetime cheating lawyers and others who have worked for him. I know two lawyers who did significant amounts of work for Trump and Trump simply did not pay them. How many creditors did Trump cheat the times he went bankrupt?

So what, exactly, is the Tea Party? A movement of goons who flock around a crook like Trump? If so, then how do they differ from Obama's supporters? Trump is white; Obama is Black. Trump cheats his creditors, Obama lies about his background. What else?

Mairi Is Fed Up with the GOP

I just received this e-mail from Mairi of Chicago:

>I watched last night, as word came down that a deal had been reached to extend the 2011 budget. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I was ENRAGED!
Carl Cameron gave his view of what had happened, and I have to tell you, I have despised that man since he leaked the stories of Sarah Palin being attacked by staff members of John McCain's candidacy as a "diva". The man is a jackanapes, IMHO...

Personally, I have had it with the GOP. They are just DemocRATS on quaaludes. They have tried to convince the American public each time they caved in and passed a CR, that they were gaining in spending cuts with each new resolution.....unfortunately, the amount of spending so far overshadowed any supposed cuts, those CR's were rendered eunuchs. There was no victory in their passage.

And now we come to last night's marathon negotiations. Republican cronies tried to place such a happy spin on what had occurred, claiming that never before in history had so many spending cuts been accomplished. Fact of the matter is, never before in history has America ever been faced with such enormous debt that even our grandchildren and great grandchildren will be devastated by it's effects. The global economy is teetering on the brink, and if America falls, NO ONE SURVIVES the consequences.

There is no "happy spin" on what happened last night in the Capital. Republicans caved. They blinked, their knees knocked, and DemocRATS took full advantage.
I am FINISHED with Republicans. I am finished with the likes of Michele Bachmann and Allen West, Rand Paul and Jason Chaffetz. They sound so on the side of the American people, but fact of the matter is, not one of them has stood tall on the eligibility issue, or LtC. Terry Lakin. They can claim all they want that they value the Tea Party and all the principles and virtues of Constitutionality that it embraces, but as I see it, they are just party hacks taking advantage of an opportunity. I am pleased that they voted "no" to the deal, but that is negated by the outcome. Not one has the cajones to LEAD!

In the future, I will be looking to alternative parties like the AIP and the Constitution Party to begin picking up the slack with candidates who know, understand, and revere our Constitution. It's time for the former Whig party to consider a comeback, or even possibly the Tea Party becoming just that, a new "Party". Those in the future who claim affiliation with Republican or DemocRATS will not gain my support. I really felt confident after last November that Republicans could not only be led to the water, but would actually drink. They, IMHO, have refused. They have no concern for the Constitution, and the fact that they caved so easily, without a threatened government shut-down so welcomed by the American people this time around, is all the evidence I needed to convince me, that while these two parties exist in D.C, nothing will ever change for the better.
I HOPE everyone is signed up for GOOOH.com, and will familiarize yourselves with ALL of the "alternative" parties which embrace the Constitution. I consider the best to be, "the American Independent Party", "the Constitution Party", and probably at this point, even Libertarians.

I am open to suggestions from any of you.........2012 will be here before we know it, and it's time to have Constitutionalists in the forefront. There are GREAT candidates already waiting for the opportunity to have your support, like John Dummett, who has been trying to gain support and recognition for some time now. It behooves us to become familiar with real candidates who need our support to win against the Reps' and Dems' power brokers and money. It will be important to identify Constitutionalists, make others very aware, and build enough awareness that these candidates WILL prevail. I have Faith after last November that we CAN and WILL achieve the goal if we remain focused.

GOD Bless,
Mairi

Marc Faber's Gloom Boom and Doom: The Wealthy Benefit from Paper Money Inflation

My late friend Howard S. Katz was the first one I ever heard to describe the Fed and the inflationary process as one that benefits the wealthy at the expense of the poor. Howard's book The Paper Aristocracy is out of print. Marc Faber of GloomBoomDoom.com is performing a major public service by taking his argument public on CNBC. Faber makes great points in this interview (h/t Dennis Sevakis). The female CNBC announcer suggests that what Faber is saying is a conspiracy theory. Because of her poor education, she is unaware of the issues surrounding Andrew Jackson's election in the 1820s and 1830s. As well, her suggestion that Faber's argument is one in favor of a well funded public education system is foolish. The public education system is well funded now, but it propagates propaganda in favor of the Fed and socialism because the people who shape the education system share the pro-Fed, pro-socialist Progressive ideology.
