POPSTop Trend-Caster: Prepare for Economic Winter Now! Get ready: He predicts bank runs by Feb. 2009. He is serious and he has been right on the mark in most predictions. His firm is Trends Research (here) and he is exposing the Goverment Lies and Big Banksters corruption. He has been interviewed as an acknowledged expert (which history proves) by such diverse media as CNN, Alex Jones (radio interview tonight), Fox News (where he said there would be a revolution against big government), and MSNBC, and Coast to Coast radio. His firm analyzes as "political atheists", they do not care about either political party, and consider them both corrupt. We forecast a high probability for the government to call a bank "holiday," at which time withdrawals will be drastically limited . Thus, while deposits will be FDIC insured, restrictions will be imposed on withdrawals. Is that why Obama is keeping Bush's new Executive Order for Martial Law upon any "nat'l emergency"?

POPSWhere Wings Take Dream "It's a myth to think I don't know what's going on" "I mean, I read the newspaper, I mean, I read the headlines" "I think we agree, the past is over" "It'll take time to restore chaos and order" "Wow! Brazil is big!" "I'm glad my Vice President is not running for President Not that he would make a great President" "It's important to think beyond the old days of when we had the concept that if we blew each other up, the world would be safe" "I hope the ambitious realize that they are more likely to succeed with success as opposed to failure" "I think the president has to be smart" I just picked some 'favourites'. Go to the source for the whole long speech, written entirely with Bushisms. . .:)

POPSWhy the rich are rich and the poor are poor "Judith: Will this help Joe the Plumber? ...You know — the one who is not named Joe, is not a licensed plumber, and would benefit from Obama's tax plan? Steve: Of course not. Your average plumber makes $48,000 a year. Apart from Mafia enforcers, no one named Joe the Plumber is rich. The bailout is designed to help Alexis the Investment Banker, Jason the Hedge Fund Manager, and Thatcher the Trust Fund Nitwit. Judith: And why should we should help them? Steve: This is the natural order of things. The rich, not the poor, should have money. Otherwise the rich wouldn't be rich and the poor wouldn't be poor. As we have witnessed, disturbing the natural order of things creates instability and leads to economic chaos. " by Steve Clifford

POPSRussians with pumpkins protest many U.S. plots Conspiracy theorist run amok. Claiming the U.S. is responsible for WW1 and WW2 so that the American economy could overtake Europe's economy. Farfetched? Likely. Carried out Sept 11 attacks to broaden government powers and planned to brand every person on the planet with the "mark of the beast," as referenced in the Bible. Farfetched? Probably, but not out of the realm of possibility. I agree the U.S. is over-zealous in pushing its idea of democracy onto everyone else. And the cowboy-like demeanor of the Bush/Cheney neocons point to visions of world dominance, but they don't speak for all of us. What we need to take away from this report is that American arrogance needs to be curtailed. We don't want to live an "us vs them" existence. Hopefully the new incoming administration can repair the damage that foreign relations have suffered these past several years.

POPSWisconsin Court Rejects Lawsuit Challenging New Voters; AG Vows to Appeal Sometimes the political system makes me sad. Continuing, "The GAB said conducting such matches before November would cast doubt on the eligibility of voters based solely on unreliable databases and would create chaos for overworked election officials who would have to further investigate the discrepancies to determine the eligibility of voters ... HAVA doesn't specify any penalty for not matching; it leaves it to states to decide what to do ... Shortly thereafter, on September 10, Van Hollen, sued, on the basis that the state was violating HAVA by not conducting matches of records. Wisconsin planned to conduct matches only on voters who registered after August 6, 2008, when the statewide registration database became operational. The attorney general sued to get the state to retroactively match all voters who registered since Jan. 1, 2006, which the GAB said would involve about 1.23 million voters."

POPSSomali extremist Islamic group threatens Kenya Al-Shabab is among several Islamic militia groups that have waged an Iraq-style insurgency against Somali government troops and their Ethiopian allies for almost two years. The nearly daily mortar attacks and gun battles have killed thousands of Somali civilians in the capital, deaths that all sides blame on each other. Ethiopian troops entered Somalia in December 2006 to back their Somali allies and oust Islamists who controlled much of southern Somalia and Mogadishu for six months. Somalia has not had an effective government since 1991, when warlords overthrew longtime dictator Mohamed Siad Barre before turning against each other, reducing the Horn of Africa nation to a state of chaos and anarchy.
