ECONOMY:

Stocks are down over 400 again this morning. Let's see if the government can manipulate the market to bring it back up like Bernanke did yesterday.

I like this headline:

"European concerns drive stock market lower"

European concerns. Of course. Everything's great in the US. At 3:30, my market indicators says the market is down 400. The Dow closed down over 500. But there's nothing to see here. It's all about Europe. Move along.

Montage of Obama administration officials talking about pivoting to jobs. We've heard it many times before, and it always means more damage to our economy. When Obama talks about jobs, he's talking about destroying private sector jobs to create fewer political economy jobs.

TAX AND SPEND:

The establishment wants us to think that Mitch McConnell picked a couple of government newcomers since he picked two Senate freshmen, but both are long-time establishment politicians. This is another illusion.

In case you didn't know, Jeb Bush was molding in his father's and this bother's image. And in case you forgot, his father and his brother proclaimed small government credentials. Jeb's lying too.

REGULATION:

Meygn Kelly thinks the government should require employers to pay for maternity leave. Is this what passes for small government support at the supposedly conservative Foxnews?

FEDERAL RESERVE:

Ron Paul explains:

""What I worry about the most is: the consequence of currency destruction is violence, and boy, every day there's more and more violence, whether it's in London, demonstrations in Israel, all around the world, revolutions going on," he said. "And this is all related to, sometimes, prices of food going up.""

Government initiates, carries out and promotes violence.

HEALTH CARE:

More hidden costs of Obamacare.

The empire strikes back with a study claiming meat causes diabetes. That's why all our ancestors had diabetes and died young, causing humans to go extinct. Oh wait... Granted, they didn't eat processed meat, but this study indicts all meat. When studies come to a conclusion that is so obviously at odds with reality, you know they're corrupt.

Another study claims brown bag school lunches are unsafe. Clearly this is intended to provide support for government to ban them and force all kids to eat the government supplied slop.

GLOBAL WARMING:

More corruption of scientists by government money. Imagine that.

Temperature stations in the arctic discovered to have bias up to 10 degrees C warmer.

WAR ON DRUGS:

I have no confidence that Lew Rockwell poster knows what happens, on a personal level, when government bans heroin. Anybody can spout statistics. One of the reasons I have no confidence is that the drug is called opium. Heroin is just a purified form.

POLICE STATE:

A good example that small police forces are no better than big ones.

WAR:

NATO claims it killed the Taliban fighter who shot down the helicopter carrying the SEALs. How do they know? Cops get the wrong guy all the time in neighborhoods where they know everybody.

POLITICS:

Despite record spending and an all-out attempt to retake the Wisconsin Senate, Democrats unseated only two out of six Republicans and two Democrats face recalls next week.

MEDIA:

This is fantastic comparison of how Newsweek uses pictures and headlines to promote Democrats and attack Republicans.

As clear as I am on the function of government and everybody at the top of government - it's all about robbing us blind - sometimes something happens that makes even me blush. President Obama has commandeered the services of the only woman director to ever win an Oscar (for crappy, warmongering movie that should have lost to Avatar) to direct a movie about the SEAL team that allegedly assassinated Osama bin Laden. The movie is scheduled to be released a month before the 2012 election. Obama has promised her the Pentagon will give her access to all the top secret data dealing with the assassination. As cynical as people call me, I can't help but be surprised. Has there ever been a more outrageous sell-out in moviedom? Has Obama assassinated the supposed anti-war left? Why would this woman be Obama's tool? I can see if he had named a director who was trying to reach the top sucking his ..... But an academy award winner? She's risking ending her career over being labelled as a government tool.

MISC:

I have one finger for this guy who thinks he can predict my next facebook friend. I doubt he'll bet me any money.
