For those watching Janet Yellen's speech this evening, the fact that she seemed to struggle towards the end of her speech was a surprise. Now we know why...

**FED'S YELLEN GETTING MEDICAL ATTENTION AFTER SPEECH -REUTERS It is hardly surprising given that she now carries the weight of the world's economic and market strength on her shoulders.

As MarketWatch's Greg Robb noted, Yellen faltered at end of her speech. Last page was agonizing. I don't think she felt well but she seemed better when she left the stage.

Bloomberg reports, Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen is resuming her planned schedule after feeling unwell toward the end of a speech she was giving Thursday at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Fed spokeswoman Michelle Smith said in an e-mailed statement.

You gotta lotta pride in yourself pal, lecturing all the rest of us.

Go hassle someone else. I’ve told you before. Had hopes you’d calm down but doubted it.

And here it is again. Sell your over-the-top self-righteousness and haughty spirit to someone else.

I got a lot of praise for God in the way He condescends to the uttermost — to make humanity great.

I have no self righteousness to sell, only God righteousness the way God does it to tell.

I am sorry for you that you put your stock in your injured pride.

I’m sorry you appointed yourself judge over the rest of us.

Which you are clearly not.

Can you stop harassing, you sanctimonious prideful boaster?

GO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO HARASS.

Clear enough?

God’s word is judge over us all.

It is clear that all our own proud works do not amount to a hill of beans, and so joyously glorious that God has declared that when we accept the condescension of His love, that matters no more.

I speak with utter confidence in Him and His plan.

If truth harasses you, I am sorry.

You are shameless in your false accusations.

The Lord rebuke you, false accuser.

And why not the mods. Found a fight to start for no reason.

Yet again.

This topic needs its own thread... Of course they don’t want 2016... Working Americans will start losing their employer provided health insurance as the waivers expire...not to mention eight years of wreck less spending and a death spiral economy.

I just watched the video. Shocking, to say the least.
The applause at the end was nothing short of surreal.

The Days of Lot are upon us.

The Federal Reserve should be dissolved.

I am gladly guilty of pushing the love angle. After all, God just “accidentally” happened to be love. I am sorry if pride cannot abide that. Pride can’t go swaggering around as pride and then think it has a legitimate claim to be anything else.

God’s love rebuke your pride.

You are so full of yourself it’s beyond sickening.

So once again, take your sanctimonious self elsewhere.

Get thee behind me Satan.

You’re a false accuser and a pest. And you’ve been warned to back off more than once.

Whatever voice in your head makes you think you speak for God isn’t from God.

But I don’t care. Keep away from me, creep.

Leave me alone creep.

You’ve always been a creep and I don’t buy into your lies.

Get yourself some help for those voices in your head.

You have some sort of inner problem that makes you come on and harass people that don’t articulate like you want.

You’re creepy and a weirdo. And a stalker, apparently.

GO AWAY with all your baloney of “love”.

I’ve met your type before. He destroyed a church, almost.

This is where they were in 2008. Back then, they hadn’t done three rounds of QE at the time either.

I look at QE like chemo. You do multiple rounds and hope the cancer doesn’t spread.

Now its everywhere. China’s over here putting on a brave face, handing over orders for planes. The Russians are about to raid SA and take it over to get them to stop low-balling oil to knock out Putin and Iran (they need oil up around $130 to be fat, $100 to break even).

EU is on its pratt. Millions of refugee invaders and their economies are already stressed to the max. The Brits want no part of it, and now VW is looking at billions in losses due to the EPA here in the USA.

And to get back on the thread, I’m sure you would agree that we’re much worse off than 2008 (since you mentioned the QE’s).

It would seem they’re running out of ammo to prop this thing up. Will they dare a QE4 and beyond?

You think Russia is about to raid Saudia Arabia?

I’m almost positive Russia’s going to invade SA. They don’t have a lot of options. Neither does Iran. Between the US and SA, we can keep oil low as long as the economy is on its pratt. We can keep oil at $70 for as long as we want, and the economy could be going gangbusters.

They’ve got a fracked BBL down to $12 - cost. At $40, you are making money, but not considering how big they all went in field expansion and infrastructure to support it.

With oil below $50, Russia’s got about 11 months before they go under. Iran has less. They need $130/BBL to keep their heads above water.

Taking out SA and controlling the Emerites by flipping them to Shiite rule is the answer.

This is why both Egypt and SA made sub rosa deals with Israel. This talk between Russia and Israel is to pre-determine the terms of their coexistence in the ME post-invasion.

Russia’s going to say to Israel, “We don’t have a choice, so here’s how it is going down. Both the Sunnis and Shia want you dead, so in the end, do you care which faction is in charge? One thing we are willing to promise, it won’t be us that invades you should it happen.”

Obama is likely shia, because ValJar and Huma are both shia.

I guess you could say that Obama is a shia pet.

There was a tweet out of Iran from their version of Brit Hume that said the Russians had landed 100,000 infantry, 700 tanks, and 170 bombers. That’s two full Army Corps, or one Army Group. About the size of Patton’s Army when they swept through France, Belgium, etc. on their way to Berlin.

That sized force isn’t used to take out a 15,000 man insurgent force with no air support (why do the Russians need SAMs against a force with no air assets).

170 bombers is three entire wings, or an entire Bomber Group. How many tanks does ISIS have again?

Anyway, that sized force is a continental invasion strength unit.

We have a single armored diveision (400 tanks), and the Israelis has two, if you include their reserve outfits. Iraq is a joke.

The Russians will move across Syria, down through Iraq into the northern part of SA. They will be resupplied by moving a supply line over the Caspian Sea into Tehran. Iraan and Russia will land their forces on the eastern side of SA and wipe out Riyahd. The Iranians will get the landing craft and know how from the Russians and cross the Persian Gulf.

I also believe you will hear Obama announce that our 6th Armored Div and most of our naval assets will be moved out of the ME by Christmas.

We are going to give the SA to them.

I think the Iran deal came down to , “Look, we’ll give Iran the bomb, and there isn’t a damn thing you are going to do to stop us. Meanwhile, if you allow us to take the SA, with Iran, nothing nuclear happens and Israel will be OK. So will Egypt.”

THAT is the secret side deal.

What I am waiting for, and have not heard, is whether there are really that many Russian forces in Syria right now. If the answer is yes, this is what is going to happen. If the answer is no, then it won’t happen. Once those troop levels are confirmed, I’m pretty sure this is what has got to happen, from Russia’s perspective.

‘Death to the Saudi dynasty,’ Iranians chant as anger rises over hajj stampede.

Causes belli. They are starting to crank it up.
