Bail-Out Is Financial Terrorism - Blackmail



This Administration is using the SAME tactics as they did to swipe our freedoms with PATRIOT Acts after the terrorist attacks of 2001.


"Give us sweeping (financial) powers NOW" they say- "We work out the details later."

Is America- are Americans going to fall for THIS "act?"

Feds Incredibly "Lose" $12-Billion In Cash



Unelected Federal officials want carte-blanche with a multi-hundred-billion-dollar bailout of greedy- irresponsible moneychangers.


Few Americans are aware that the Federal government recently literally lost "360 tons or $12 billion of freshly printed C-notes"- according to "Spin Doctor" John Curtis.

Dr. Curtis can also be heard on The Rick Barber Show overnights on KOA-85AM in Denver.

CEO's "Golden Parachutes" Of Government-Rescued Corporations Should Be Seized



By God- if we- the Taxpayers of America- HAVE to rescue these failed firms with hundreds of billions of OUR money- THE VERY LEAST we should expect is that the CEOs of these failed firms have to surrender their million-dollar severance packages.


Please note that King Bush DOES NOT want this provision included- he wants to protect his "have-more" buddies!!! (See this McCain groupies???)

The CEOs failed at their jobs and that money should be taken and put in a fund to pay for the losses of the LITTLE PEOPLE who trusted these greedy S-O-Bs with their cash.

AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should ANY "powers" be given to this unelected Federal Reserve guy.

If this "bail-out" takes weeks to get right- so should that be done.

The American People got fooled with the hundreds of billions spent in Iraq- let's not get fooled again!!!!!!!!!

KANSAS CITY'S BREAKING NEWS: KC-MO Shooting- Possible Homicide

And this "homicide" may be justified.


Around 2:30pm- an armed robbery in progress- then a shooting- is reported in the parking lot of "ben's Market" at 27th Street & Prospect.

The different spin on these turn of events are- as reported by KC-MO police on the scene- that this is "the victim (of the robbery who) shot the suspect."


The "victim's" aim was true- their lead effective.

MAST-EMS was transporting the "suspect"- condition near-death- to a nearby medical trauma center .

Severely-Injured Polo-MO Child Needs America's Help



Last Tuesday evening- the following image shows a "breaking news" story that was posted here...

I never heard further about the child's accident or the real extent of his injuries. Ms. Rittenhouse and I had wondered.

This morning- I received the following response to that news story:


"On Tuesday afternoon a three year old boy, named Colten, was severely injured in a lawn mowing accident in Polo, Missouri.

He lost one of his legs in the accident, and the other had to be amputated. Extensive injuries to his back side has left him without a rectum.


He lies in a drug induced coma at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City.

Keep this child and his family in your prayers over the next several months. He is at a very high risk for developing infection because of how the injury occurred.

As for the second part of this request I was not sure of how to even begin to word it.

This family has no health insurance coverage. The need for help will reach far beyond his medical bills. This is a young family who's father is self employed.

A account has been set up in his name ( Colten Newman), at Bank Northwest in Polo, 305 Main St. Polo, Missouri 64671 Telephone #660-354-2111.

In closing, we all receive and send emails to each other, often with a long pre-forwarding list of people we don't know. Words of encouragement that might have been the right message for someone. But, sometimes it takes more than just hitting the forward button. If what I could imagine for this family, it would be, that everyone that receives this email, would place one dollar in an envelope and mail it to the address above.

This is not a scam, that is why I included the address and phone number of the bank. Trust the person that has sent this email to you, and act on faith. May God bless all who reads this."

Though the message was posted anonymously- I verified the information via the telephone number that the poster provided.

Unfortunately- it's all true.

I'm going to send some money to this child's family. The medical costs will be tremendous.

Please help them too if you can.

Colten Newman-in care of Bank Northwest- 305 Main St.
Polo, Missouri 64671 Telephone: 660-354-2111.

Happy Autumn



Official- as of this post.


Here's what brings about autumn and the other 4 seasons- according to Wikipedia:

"There is either an equinox (autumn and spring) or a solstice (summer and winter) on approximately the 21st day of the last month of every quarter of the calendar year.

On a day which has an equinox, the centre of the Sun will spend a nearly equal amount of time above and below the horizon at every location on Earth and night and day will be of nearly the same length.

The word equinox derives from the Latin words aequus (equal) and nox (night). In reality, the day is longer than the night at an equinox. Commonly, the day is defined as the period that sunlight reaches the ground in the absence of local obstacles.

From Earth, the Sun appears as a disc and not a single point of light; so, when the centre of the Sun is below the horizon, the upper edge is visible. Furthermore, the atmosphere refracts light; so, even when the upper limb of the Sun is below the horizon, its rays reach over the horizon to the ground. In sunrise/sunset tables, the assumed semidiameter (apparent radius) of the sun is 16 minutes of arc and the atmospheric refraction is assumed to be 34 minutes of arc.

Their combination means that when the upper limb of Sun is on the visible horizon its centre is 50 minutes of arc below the geometric horizon, which is the intersection with the celestial sphere of a horizontal plane through the eye of the observer. These effects together make the day about 14 minutes longer than the night at the equator, and longer still at sites toward the poles.

The real equality of day and night only happens at places far enough from the equator to have at least a seasonal difference in day length of 7 minutes, and occurs a few days towards the winter side of each equinox."

Americans Cashing Out Their Money Market Funds



Months ago- I had encouraged Ms. Rittenhouse to consider cashing-in her 401K money market fund and transferring her assets into more stable financial instruments.


A call last week to her broker gave her the news that her account "has lost about $1.9k in a year." The broker's secretary volunteered the fact that she "had lost around $20k" in her own account.

According to the Associated Press' "David Pitt" in a STAR article Sunday- in JUST the week of September 11 through the 18th- Americans cashed-out of their money market funds to the VERY loud tune of "$224.3-BILLION."

Save yourselves citizens- as the cost of a barrel of oil rises above $108 and higher- and the liability to the American taxpayers becomes incredibly overwhelming.

American Politicians Will Run Bail-out Plan Through Like Iraq War Approval



This bailout of greedy-now broke financial institutions with American taxpayer dollars will more than likely turn out about as well as the illegal and immoral Iraq War that Bush and his cronies got us into.


Just look- they're "rushing" this bailout through- and mostly without ANY provisions for the American taxpayer.

The Dems are calling for relief for the foreclosed and limits on bailed-out CEO perks to be included in any "plan"- but this is likely pure lip-service.

This "bail-out" WILL be "rushed" through with the ball to drop later.

In addition- I think- once this passes among the fellow millionaire pollys- we can kiss ANY chance of a National Health Plan a long and slow GOODBYE.
