The Suicide of LibertyAnyone who has been paying attention knows that the "superpower" is over-extended financially and militarily.... Where is the money going to come from when the country's debt is bursting at the seams, the economy is in decline, and unemployment on the rise? Washington thinks that the money can simply be printed. However, enough has already been printed that the rest of the world is already suspicious of the dollar and its role as reserve currency. As John Williams has said, the world could begin dumping dollar assets at any time. A rapidly spinning top is remarkably stable, but when its angular momentum is almost exhausted, it starts wobbling unpredictably and chaotically. "Round and round it goes, and where it stops, nobody knows." However, what we do know for sure is that it will stop ! Unz found that white American gentiles who would be considered Christian are dramatically under-represented in America's elite universities, which provide the elites who dominate government, business, and the professions. Unz reported that white Americans who comprised 70% of the US population made up only 25% of Harvard's enrollment and that the composition of the student bodies at Yale Princeton Columbia, Berkeley, and Stanford was much the same. Asians who comprised 3% of the US population comprised one-fifth of Harvard's enrollment, and Jews, who comprised 2.5% of the population comprised between one-fourth and one-third of Harvard's student body. As Buchanan puts it, the country's native-born majority has relegated its own progeny to the trash bin of history. "No ruling class has ever been overthrown---They have all committed suicide."---ahem! modesty forbids!  Buchanan doesn't address the question whether the rest of the world will miss white America. Considering the endless wars and astounding hypocrisy and immorality associated with white America since the collapse of the Soviet Union two decades ago, the world is likely to cheer when power slips from the hands of what Leonard Jeffries termed the "ice people," that is, people without souls or feelings for others. Americans are so wrapped up in the myth of their "exceptionalism" that they are oblivious to the world's opinion. American soft power, once a foundation of US influence, has been squandered, another reason the "superpower" status is crumbling.

' Paul Craig RobertsThe Bush/Cheney/Obama regimes have shredded the constitutional protections that gave American citizens their liberty. By dictate alone, the executive branch has acquired the power, prohibited by the Constitution, to incarcerate citizens indefinitely without presenting evidence and obtaining conviction. According to the US government, a secret executive branch panel now exists that has acquired from somewhere the unaccountable power to put citizens on a list to be assassinated without due process of law merely on the basis of an unproven government assertion. How does this differ from Stalinist Russia and Gestapo Germany? The transformation of the US into a police state has been achieved quickly and with scant protest. Congress and the courts are silent. The media is silent, as are the law schools and bar associations. Out of 535 US Senators and Representatives, only Ron Paul has protested the destruction of liberty.... Buchanan is concerned that America might not survive until 2025. Instead, shouldn't we be concerned that the American police state could last that long? Shouldn't we be worried that the police state will survive yet another presidential election, or even one more day?

' Stuck Pigs (and Presstitutes) Squeal[/b]...Krugman does display at times a moral conscience. He did so on September 11 in his New York Times blog, "The Years of Shame." Krugman wrote that 9/11 was hijacked by "fake heros" who used the event "to justify an unrelated war the neocons wanted to fight" and that "our professional pundits" lent their support to the misuse of the event.
The stuck pigs, of course, squealed loudly. The war criminal, Donald Rumsfeld, publicly cancelled his New York Times subscription, and the complicit presstitutes in Washington's wars of aggression jumped on Krugman with spikes and hatchets. [b]This little pig went to market, This little pig stayed home, This little pig had roast beef, This little pig had none, And this little pig cried, "Wee-wee-wee," All the way home. Pakistan is a US ally; yet, Washington has murdered thousands of Pakistani civilians. The liars in Washington and the presstitute media always claim that murdered civilians are "al Qaeda terrorists." Every time Washington blows up a hospital, a farmer's home, a school, Washington issues a report that it has just killed some al Qaeda leader. Some of these leaders have been reported killed multiple times.... In other words. Shut Krugman up. Cancel his column. We don't want to hear anything from anyone that casts doubt on Washington's murder, maiming, and dislocation of millions of people because of a "threat" that is a total lie....Anyone who doubts us is evil and a terrorist and a pinko-liberal-commie.
It will be interesting to see if Krugman's column survives his statement of truth. It will tell us whether America has succumbed totally to being the land of the liars, or whether a person of moral conscience still has a voice.

You seem to be talking to yourself. Perhaps you should just email this crap to yourself.

Did you notice that Uncle Sam is crawling toward Canada?
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete. R. Buckminster Fuller
