It's The End Of The World As We Know It and I have gas!
My 401k, My Savings, My aching back! I love/hate this guy.
Post your comments or your favorite chile recipe.
Kook or not, he’s right on this one.
“I love/hate this guy.”
I understand you.
“Post you’re comments or a favorite Chili recipe...”
All-American Chili
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1 1/4 cups chili and 1 tablespoon cheese)
Ingredients
6 ounces hot turkey Italian sausage
2 cups chopped onion
1 cup chopped green bell pepper
8 garlic cloves, minced
1 pound ground sirloin
1 jalapeño pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 bay leaves
1 1/4 cups Merlot or other fruity red wine
2 (28-ounce) cans whole tomatoes, undrained and coarsely chopped
2 (15-ounce) cans kidney beans, drained
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
Preparation
Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Remove casings from sausage. Add sausage, onion, and the next 4 ingredients (onion through jalapeño) to pan; cook 8 minutes or until sausage and beef are browned, stirring to crumble.
Add chili powder and the next 7 ingredients (chili powder through bay leaves), and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in wine, tomatoes, and kidney beans; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
Uncover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Discard the bay leaves. Sprinkle each serving with cheddar cheese.
Note: Like most chilis, this version tastes even better the next day.
Kook! Actually Kook Jr., instead of preaching doom & gloom how about Kook Jr., do his damn job and actively work to prevent the collapse. All these do nothing cowards need to get the hell out of office ASAP! We have Fox to preach doom & gloom, these feckless senatorial bastards were elected to fix shit. Not to tell us how they have failed America for the last 4 years. Fix it Paul or abdicate your office for someone who will. I’m beyond tired of these nutless men telling us what will happen because they are too weak & timid to do their damn job!
I have found this website to be a very useful source of information on the economy, gold, and silver.

Fog City Diner in SF, was published in Gourmet several years ago. It has always been a big hit.
1/3 cup olive oil
2 lbs boneless sirloin, cut into 1/2-in. cubes
2 cups chopped yellow onion
2 Tbsp minced garlic
5 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped fine
1/3 cup Masa Harina (corn tortilla flour mix)
1/3 cup + 1 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. cayenne
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. white pepper
2 tsp. salt
4 cups beef broth
2 cups cooked black beans, rinsed and drained if canned
grated mild Cheddar for Garnish
minced red onion for garnish
In a heavy kettle heat the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it brown the sirloin in batches, transferring it as it is browned with a slotted spoon to a bowl. In the fat remaining in the kettle cook the yellow onion, the garlic and the jalapenos over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, add the Masa Harina, the chili powder, the cayenne, the cumin, the white pepper, and the salt, and cook the mixture, stirring for 5 minutes. Add the broth and the sirloin and simmer the mixture, uncovered, stirring occasionally for 45 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Stir in the beans, simmer the mixture for 15 minutes, and serve the chili garnished with the Cheddar and the red onion.
Yep, that’s my take as well. Not a big political fan of Ron Paul, but he is absolutely spot on here.
Another thing. What if the feds really do know how close we are to an economic collapse and that’s why they built all those FEMA holding pens? I recall in October 2008 was the first time in my life that I actually saw fear on the faces of people in Washington DC regarding the potential collapse that sent McCain running from his campaign.
I think that was a wake up call for the feds and then they went on a tear building these 72 holding centers across the country.
My Favorite Chili Recipe
1.) Walk from the office to the kitchen.
2.) Retrieve a Corelle Ware soup bowl from the china cabinet.
3.) Bring the bowl to the kitchen stove.
4.) Ladle hot chili from the Rachael Ray II Hard-anodized Nonstick 6-quart covered stockpot to the bowl.
5.) Retrieve a generic soup spoon from the silverware drawer.
6.) Bring the bowl of chili and the spoon to kitchen table and sit down.
7.) Reach across the kitchen table and grab a napkin.
8.) Ask God to bless us and our food.
8.) Eat the chili.
10.) Tell Mrs. Chandler how much you enjoy her cooking.
8 = “9”

I have come to believe we are rapidly moving toward economic crisis.
Please tell me what else explains:
The POTUS switch to eliminate internet access nationwide, other than to keep us from organizing during civil unrest?
The ongoing military live exercises in major cities (Harrisburg, PA yesterday), complete with black helicopters, people rappelling down ropes, gunfire, etc - other than to desensitize us to the use of military assets in the USA?
Homeland Security buying 7000 fully automatic assault rifles and billions of rounds of ammo?
FEMA Camps for the rebellious types.
Unsustainable debt trajectory?
I could go on, but that’s enough here.
When I add it all up, the only explanation I can find is that the government is expecting HUGE civil unrest, like we see in the Middle East and is preparing to quell it militarily.
Glenn Beck annoys me, but I just watched his analysis of these military exercises, and apparently Boykin thinks they’re bizarre.
We could be heading for a collapse. What will become of this nation?
“What will become of this nation?”
I have only two thoughts:
1. God knows.
2. Every previous great nation has had its day in the sun, but is lesser today. Perhaps this is our future.
I also have advice for all:
GET your money out of the country before it is no longer legal to do so (capital controls).
Prepare for a wealth tax.
Prepare for a VAT tax.
If you can get a second passport to use as a travel document, do it now.
If you don’t even have a US passport, get it now.
Have a plan for whatever approach you are planning to take.
Don’t wait to see how it turns out.
What, no chile recipe?
“What, no chile recipe?
I already have 435 alarm chile heartburn!
Someone might want to post this as a separate thread.

I would vote on Ron Paul because he believes in the Constitution, some things i don,t agree with him on but i can not convince myself he is wrong according to the constitution.
Fix it Paul or abdicate your office for someone who will.
Its the people who vote for the socialists and the want to be dictators that are the cause of the problem, that is why Paul warns of the COLLAPSE, he can do nothing as it is caused by the people.
