AMERICA HEADS OVER THE CLIFF

Democrats and Republicans failed to vote on a deal to stop America falling over the fiscal cliff. The $607 billion of tax hikes and spending cuts take effect at midnight.

President Obama said that a deal had been within sight.

It is believed Congress will meet again Tuesday and come up with a deal to reverse the tax hikes and spending cuts, before any serious damage is done.

However, if they fail, it is widely predicted the fiscal cliff will plunge America back into recession, and the global economy into turmoil.

AS FISCAL CLIFF FAST APPROACHES STILL NO DEAL

As the fiscal cliff deadline fast approaches there are still significant differences between law makers on Capitol Hill. It had been hoped that negotiators would have a deal ready to be voted on over the weekend, but this failed to materialize.

Democrats were unhappy about Republican plans to change the way benefits are calculated, leading to a gradual reduction in benefit payments; whereas Republicans were angered that the President’s plans appeared to use increased tax hikes in new spending plans.

“The biggest obstacle we face is that President Obama and Majority Leader Reid continue to insist on new taxes that will be used to fund more new spending, not for meaningful deficit reduction,” said Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, the ranking Republican on the Senate Budget Committee.

If a deal is not ready to be voted on, the President has told Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid to present a bare bones plan to be voted on. This will see tax increases on families making more than $250,000 and extend unemployment insurance.

Wall Street traders are bracing themselves for volatility in the markets as the uncertainty increases.

WITH THE STRONGEST GUN LAWS IN THE COUNTRY 446 SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN SHOT IN CHICAGO SO FAR THIS YEAR! THE MEDIA SAYS NOTHING! WHERE ARE THE TEARS?

FACTS ARE FACTS ! WAKE UP !!

The cesspool known as Chicago probably has the toughest gun laws in the country, yet despite all the shootings, murders, and bloodshed, you never hear a peep about this from the corrupt state run media.

In Chicago, there have been 446 school age children shot in this leftist utopia run by Rahm Emanuel; the same city that produced Obama, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, etc. 62 school aged children have actually been killed by crazed nuts in Chicago so far this year with almost two weeks to go. So why isn’t this news worthy?

Is it because it would embarrass those anti second amendment nuts who brag about Chicago’s tough gun laws? Is it because most of the kids who were shot and killed were minorities? Or is it because the corrupt media doesn’t want to show Chicago in a bad light? Amazingly, no Obama crocodile tears either.

For those of you too dense to get the point of this, it’s to make the point about gun laws. No matter how tough the gun laws are, the crazed, nut jobs will find a way to get them and if they so chose, use them. No draconian law can stop this, no matter how well intentioned the law is.

This is really just about leftists grabbing power from citizens and taking away their constitutional rights of self defense.

The killing is caused by the moral decay of the citizens of our country. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people!

OLIVER STONE TO RT: ‘US HAS BECOME AN ORWELLIAN STATE’


Americans are living in an Orwellian state argue Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick, as they sit down with RT to discuss US foreign policy and the Obama administration’s disregard for the rule of law.

“Obama was a great hope for change”

RT: It took both of you almost five years to produce this series. And in it you have a chapter called Obama: Management of a Wounded Empire. You give a harsh critique of the Obama administration. What in your eyes has been the most troubling aspect of his presidency, Oliver?

Oliver Stone: I think under the disguise of sheep’s clothing he has been a wolf. That because of the nightmare of the Bush presidency that preceded him, people forgave him a lot. He was a great hope for change. The color of his skin, the upbringing, the internationalism, the globalism, seemed all evident. And he is an intelligent man. He has taken all the Bush changes he basically put them into the establishment, he has codified them. That is what is sad. So we are going into the second administration that is living outside the law and does not respect the law and foundations of our system and he is a constitutional lawyer, you know. Without the law, it is the law of the jungle.  Nuremburg existed for a reason and there was a reason to have trials, there is a reason for due process – ‘habeas corpus’ as they call it in the United States.

HOMICIDE RATES IN CANADA RISE 7%, FIREARM DEATHS AT LOWEST LEVEL IN ALMOST 50 YEARS AS KILLERS FAVOUR THE BLADE !

“The rate of firearm homicides per 100,000 population has generally been declining since the mid-1970s and, in 2011, reached its lowest point in almost 50 years.”

The Canadian murder weapon of choice is now the blade.

“An increase in stabbings accounted for virtually the entire increase in homicides in 2011,” the federal data agency said.

It said there were 39 more stabbings in 2011 compared to 2010. Overall, stabbings accounted for 35 per cent of homicides, firearms for 27 per cent, beatings for 22 per cent and strangulation for seven per cent.

FRENCH COURT REJECTS 75 PERCENT MILLIONAIRES’ TAX

By Emile Picy and Catherine Bremer

PARIS | Sat Dec 29, 2012 11:25am EST

(Reuters) – France’s Constitutional Council on Saturday rejected a 75 percent upper income tax rate to be introduced in 2013 in a setback to Socialist President Francois Hollande’s push to make the rich contribute more to cutting the public deficit.

The Council ruled that the planned 75 percent tax on annual income above 1 million euros ($1.32 million) – a flagship measure of Hollande’selection campaign – was unfair in the way it would be applied to different households.

Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault said the government would redraft the upper tax rate proposal to answer the Council’s concerns and resubmit it in a new budget law, meaning Saturday’s decision could only amount to a temporary political blow.

MANHATTAN NY SUBWAY DEATH 2ND FATAL SHOVE IN A MONTH

By MARC SANTORA and SARAH MASLIN NIR

Queens NY, Sunando Sen was pushed to his death on Thursday night, in what witnesses said was an unprovoked attack.

The Bangladesh passport of Mr. Sen, 46. He opened a copying business this year on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Mr. Suman said Mr. Sen was proud when he had saved enough money to open the business, New Amsterdam Copy.

A woman approaching from behind who had been sitting on a bench and who had been heard mumbling to herself. The woman pushed him into the path of a No. 7 train roaring into the 40th Street-Lowery Street subway station in Sunnyside. Mr. Sen was crushed under the train.

Onlookers screamed, the woman fled the station down two flights of stairs.

The seemingly unprovoked attack, the second time this month that a man was thrown to his death on the subway tracks, stirred some of the deepest fears of New Yorkers.

“When a murder happens in New York, it can often be dismissed as being in someone else’s backyard,” said Gene Russianoff, staff lawyer for the Straphangers Campaign, a rider advocacy group. “The subway is everyone’s backyard.”

Why is the weird death toll climbing in NY ever since Hurricane Sandy? What else was contained in that storm?

100 YEAR OLD DEATHBED DREAMS OF MATHEMATICIAN PROVED TRUE


Over a hundred years ago, a young Indian wrote a letter to the leading mathematician of his time, G. H. Hardy of Cambridge University. Hardy realised that the mathematics in Srinivasa Ramanujan’s letter was brilliant, that the self-taught mathematician from rural India had discovered some of the fundamental theories of mathematics, with no formal training.

Hardy invited Ramanujan to England, and the two men worked together for five years. In those five years Ramanujan set the world of mathematics ablaze with his new and exciting ideas.

However, the English weather took it’s toll on the young Indian, and as his health failed he returned to India. As he lay dying, he wrote to Hardy telling him of mysterious functions he had seen in a dream. The devout Hindu, believed that the goddess Namagiri had shown them to him.

Now a team of mathematicians from Emory University have proved that these functions are true, “We’ve solved the problems from his last mysterious letters. For people who work in this area of math, the problem has been open for 90 years,” Emory University mathematician Ken Ono said.

NEW STUDY CONFIRMS ECONOMY WAS DESTROYED BY DEMOCRAT POLICIES


A new study released this week from the widely respected National Bureau of Economic Research has confirmed beyond question that the left’s race-baiting attacks on the housing market (the Community Reinvestment Act – enacted under Carter, made shockingly more aggressive under Clinton) is directly responsible for imploding the housing market and destroying the economy.

The study painstakingly sorted through failed home loans that caused the housing market collapse and identified an overwhelming connection between them and CRA mortgages.

Again, let’s review:

-President Bush went to Congress repeatedly for years warning them that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were going to destroy the economy (17 times in 2008 alone). Democrats continuously ignored him, shut down his proposals along party lines and continued raiding the institutions for campaign contributions on their way down.

-John McCain also co-sponsored urgently critical reforms that would have prevented the housing market collapse, but Democrats shut that down as well, along party lines, and even openly ridiculed anyone who suggested reforms were necessary…to protect their taxpayer-funded campaign contributions as the economy raced uncontrollably toward the cliff.

-No one was making bad loans to unqualified people until Democrats came along and threatened to drag banks into court and have them fined and branded as racists if they didn’t go along with the left’s Affirmative Action lending policies…all while federally insuring their losses. Even the New York Times warned in the late 1990s that Democrats continuing to force banks into lowering their standards would lead to this exact catastrophe.

-Obama himself is even on the record personally helping sue one lender (Citibank) into lowering its lending standards to include people from extremely poor and unstable areas, which even one of the left’s favorite blatantly partisan “fact-checkers,” Snopes, admits (while pretending to ‘set the record straight’).

-Even The New York Times admitted that there is “little evidence” of any connection between the “Republican” deregulation measures Obama blames, like the Gramm-Bleach-Liley Act (signed into law by a Democrat), and the collapse of the housing market.

NY GUNMAN:” KILLING IS WHAT I DO BEST”

The gunman who shot dead two firefighters in upstate New York, left a note saying “Killing is what I do best.”

In the note William Spengler, 62, also said he wanted to burn down his neighbourhood, and kill as many people as possible.

The charred remains of a woman were found in the burned out house, she is believed to be his sister.

Spengler used a Bushmaster semi-automatic rifle, the same used by Adam Lanza in the Sandy Hook Elementary school massacre.

Spengler, convicted of the manslaughter of his grandmother in 1981, was found dead of a self-inflicted gun shot wound hours after the killing of the fire fighters.

HOLLYWOOD COMES OUT IN SUPPORT OF GUN CONTROL

Hollywood stars, including Beyonce, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, Jon Hamm, Julianne Moore, and Gwyneth Paltrow, have shot a movie calling for action to be taken now to end gun violence in the US. The campaign slogan is “It’s not too soon, it’s too late”.

The video begins with Jamie Foxx (the star of Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming “Django Unchained”), saying “Columbine”, then other celebrities list the other mass shootings in recent years, ending with a number of the stars saying “Newtown”.

The campaign’s proposals include requiring a background check for every potential gun buyer, banning assault weapons and guns holding more than 10 bullets, and making gun trafficking a federal crime.

In the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre President Obama has set up a multi-agency task force to look at gun laws. The NRA (National Rifle Association) have come out suggesting that armed guards be stationed in every school.

WESTBORO BAPTIST CHURCH PLANS TO PICKET SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, INCURS WRATH OF ANONYMOUS

After prominent Westboro Baptist Church member/professional troll/mother of illegitimate son Shirley Phelps-Roper announced her group’s intention to picket Sandy Hook Elementary School “to sing praise to God for the glory of his work in executing his judgment,” the wrath came quickly.

An anonymous offshoot promptly launched #OpWestboro with the intention of “destroying” the church and its members.

Within hours the group began posting personal contact info and credit card numbers of WBC congregants, and hacking the church’s various online properties.

A coup de grâce of sort came with the takeover of Phelps-Roper’s personal twitter account. The hack is attributed to notorious teen hacker Cosmo the God who appears to have violated the terms of his newly minted parole in order to take part in the operation.

Meanwhile, others are attempting a less tech-savvy method of bringing down the church: Convincing the government to label WBC a hate group. A We the People petition to do just that has already amassed nearly 100,000 signatures in less than three days.

SATAN WORSHIP MOTIVATED SANDY HOOK KILLER? It’s been a factor in numerous other mass killings « Klein Online

By Aaron Klein

Is Adam Lanza’s reported devil worship a missing link that could help explain what motivated the Sandy Hook gunman to carry out the school house massacre?

Was Lanza part of any larger Satanic or ritualistic subculture locally or online where the murderer could have revealed his plans or could have even received support in preparing for the killings?

Although largely under-reported, Satanic subculture and so-called devil worship has been a factor in numerous other mass killings, including the recent Batman shooting massacre.

Trevor L. Todd, a former classmate of Lanza’s, told the media that Lanza worshiped the devil and had an online page dedicated to Satan.

Lanza’s worshiping page had the word “Devil” written in red, Gothic-style letters against a black background, stated Todd, the UK Daily Mail reported.

Batman, Columbine shootings and the ‘devil’

While Lanza’s reported devil worship was mentioned in several news media items, it is seemingly not being considered as a possible motive in the national debate currently centered around the role of guns, drugs, violent video games or mental illness in the shooting spree.

The theme of so-called devil worship and Satanic-style “Goth” subculture has cropped up in numerous other mass shootings, although in some cases the phenomenon may have been under-reported or entirely unreported.

One such case is the July 20th mass shooting at a Batman movie in Aurora, Colorado.

While reports do not link the shooter, James Eagan Holmes, to either devil worship or the Goth community, an overlooked factor is the Satanic themes related to the “Joker” character after which Holmes modeled himself.

Holmes, a 24-year old former PhD candidate in neuroscience, had dyed his hair red like the Joker had and told police officers that he was “the Joker,” the villain in numerous Batman movies.

It was reported that Holmes was a big fan of Batman movies, and that his apartment was decorated with Batman paraphernalia.

In various Batman movies, including the recent Dark Knight series, the Joker’s calling card, handed out by the character in multiple scenes in the different movies, is a picture of a devil.

In the 1989 Batman film, the Joker character, played by Jack Nicholson, is first recognized by Batman as the perpetrator of his parents’ murder after the Joker asks Batman, “Do you ever dance with the devil in the pale moon light?” Batman has a flashback to when his mother and father were murdered by a man who asks the same question.

In the immediate aftermath of the 1999 Columbine High School massacre there were widespread reports killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold were involved in Goth subculture. T

The two had initially been reported to also be members of “The Trenchcoat Mafia,” an informal club within Columbine High School, but later reports emerged that such characterizations were considered incorrect.
