I watched BECK tonight too. Very good arguments he presented. I recall after 9-11 there were similar attempts to destabilize the economy by moving enormous amounts of money/holdings. Still have probably a dozen articles of the subject printed and filed. I remember this because it is about the time I discovered FR. If oil goes up to even 120 a barrel, any chance of economic recovery is over. We have one chance and that is to open Alaska, the Gulf, and California coast to drilling and PRODUCTION NOW NOW NOW. If we wait and things in fact do get worse not better which I feel they will, it will be too little too late. I would like to see financial retaliation to whomever the country of origin that attempted to destabilize our economy be done. I think I’ll go out and buy a couple hundred pounds of rice and beans tomorrow before the riots hit Saudi Arabia. And will somebody from Russian secret police please serve Julian Assponge the cup of tea he should have had months ago before that A_H’s leaks do any more damage to the world. Not really, I don’t really want to hurt anyone but he does need to be persuaded to STFU.

Side note, we don’t need to carpet bomb anymore. That is so 60’s and I hate the 60’s. Now we have smart bombs that allow you to “pick you prick” and take them out specificly and those close to him that are probably guilty by association.

OK I’m done ranting.

Depends on where you live. If you have land do not sell it. It is happening all over the country. The companies show up and start offering landowners deals. They give you money up front and then royalties. If someone approaches you, make sure you talk to a lawyer who knows the score on negotiating these deals. They will try to low ball you out of the box.

This has been happening in ND, NE, TX, OH, WV, PA, NY and a few other states. If somebody contacts you someday and you cannot find an attorney PM me - I am not an attny thank God.

What is funny is Fort Worth is sitting on top of a huge nat/shale gas formation.

Getting back to the end game. People may say - Frantzie is crackers - why would the islamic and Fed (cabal of bankers) want to destroy America to take over those resources.

Well trillions of dollars in wealth. Also oil and nat gas usually is a curse for a country. See Putin and the Russian oligarches, Saddam, Iran, Khadaffi, Chavez, etc.

I think 3 countries have gotten it right with oil wealth - Norway, Canada and Australia.

If the Pentagon was looking at it, then that means Obama ordered it. We all know Obama is a puppet for Geroge Soros. Soros must be afraid that he may get arrested. So he is now trying to blame it on China or some other country. Complete Rubbish...

Whoever controls the currency controls a country. We all know George Soros is a money manipulator. Soros probably did it to make sure Obama got elected. I recall it was right after Bush said the economy was good.

This is just a theory... I have no proof.

remember the “6 Day War in 1967?.....the infamous “Road of Death” in 1991 when the Iraqis tried to high tail it out of Kuwait?. And that was with 20 year old technology. Massing and moving Arab armies in the open desert against the United States Navy and Air Force would not be wise. would get ugly...very very ugly.

Here, let the Daily Mail scare the crap out of you instead.

Did China or Jihadists try to bankrupt America?

This is mostly a cover story.

This crash was caused by Greed right here in this country. Look to The Fed, Big Bankers, Congress, Corruption, Fraud, and the like. The financial terrorists are right here within, and most of them are Americans.

BTW, you know how if you listen to Hannity it’s basically a repeat of Rush’s show? I was listening to the Financial Terrorism thing for about 1 year now. Nothing new to add to it. Well Beck does the same thing. He copies Matt Drudge, Michael Savage and Alex Jones. Both Jones and Savage were talking about it 3 nights ago.

Believe it or not... If you read and or listen to their shows, then you just hear a repeat on Beck and even Rush. However, Beck and Rush like to pretend they came up with it. Believe me I listen to all of them. I recently cut out Hannity.

Don’t believe me just listen to their shows, or go their web sites. Then listen to Rush and Beck. Nothing but a repeat of the same. Once in a while Rush gets info from Neal Boortz or World Net Daily. Nevertheless, most of Rush comes from Matt Drudge. Matt Drudge get’s a lot from Savage, Jones and World Net Daily.

I know it’s crazy but that’s the way it works.

I guess I will be post #44. And I guess I am Conservative Man age 59, so I'm your elder; listen to me.

I am struck by the lack of analysis on FR. Your post is typical: you refer to a specific show, you summarize key points. The majority of comments don't address your points, and here in the case of Beck, they are ad hominem.

There is no media presentation like his: a full hour of facts, salient video, speculation, analysis. The Left has nothing like this. Rush is king, but Rush does not accomplish what Beck's TV show does. Why the entire Left, and the majority of the Right here on FR, focus on the messenger rather than the message, is of great concern to me. What has happened to critical thinking?

Beck's discussion of the anonymous Pentagon report has had me thinking all night. It does seem as if a true American has felt compelled to bring this to light at this time. McCarthy's book American Jihad makes the case of the natural coalition of Islam and the Left. However it has been engineered, either by China or Russia, in conjunction with the Brotherhood, the results will be the same it appears.

We are seeing an acceleration of preservationist policies coming from the administration regarding federal (public) lands that we have not seen since the last days of the Clinton era. These policies lock up natural resources and put them off limits from any development. This includes oil, natural gas, minerals, timber, forage, and water. You can see some of the various actions if you scroll down here: http://users.sisqtel.net/armstrng/monument.htm and here http://users.sisqtel.net/armstrng/forests.htm

At the same time we are seeing a comparable state lock down, such as the elimination of irrigation in the central valley. This has got to be an intentional strategy to box America in so she can’t develop raw material for home industries that might help get the economy to move forward.

Glenn Beck lost any credibility he once had when he started arguing for a VAT tax, to “reduce the deficit”(!) and campaigned for John McCain by smearing conservative J.D. Hayworth.

He is an ill man, pray for him if you wish, but don’t take his ranting seriously.

Financial Terrorists????

ROTFLMAO!!!!

Try this one on for size and read past the first couple sentences and paragraphs:

It’s like a bunch of rich guys running around acting altruistic and claiming the death tax should be reinstated or at higher levels.

What they don’t tell you is their holdings include companies who profit from estate planning, income shelter, etc.

If the government has no death tax it is a direct competition to the insurance companies, law firms, Wall Street, etc.

Without the death tax there is no need for their services and such stringent estate planning.

Here is an excellent video explaining Warren Buffet and Berkshire-Hathaway. Get a cup of coffee and watch it. You will see the scheme explained and then you will get it.

Also note what companies he has acquired, how and why:

Why This Superrich Guy Likes High Taxes
http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/8035391/

Warren Buffett Benefited From Death Tax
http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=15951

Wanna know why Buffet pushed for TARP bailout?
Suffice it to say Berkshire owned stock in some largest receipents of TARP valued at $13 billion around that time.

Here is the funny part:
Buffett increased his bank holdings in September, while he was arguing in the media that Congress should approve the bailout to prevent the collapse of the global financial system.

TARP was approved in October of that year, just one month later!

It’s good to be king!

He actually said “if he didn’t think the government was going to act(in a way that would positive and accretive to hihis holding) he wouldn’t have been doing anything that week”. (paraphrased)

For more read here:
http://www.mcclatchydc.com/2009/04/05/65496/buffett-champion-of-bailout-is.html

BofA in April 2009 was around $4 per share and is now trading at $13.80 per share as of 3/02/2001

Wells Fargo in April of 2009 was around $11 per share and is now trading at around $31 per share.

How about US Bancorp trading at around $14 per share in April 2009 and now trading at about $26 per share.

Goldman Sachs Group trading at some $51 dollars per share has now zoomed to above $160 per share.

How about those poor folks at American Express trading at just above $10 per share in 2009 and now they are trading at about $45 per share?

Bottom line: We, the schmuck taxpayer, paid to enhance the holdings of companies like Berkshire and investors in Berkshire.

Ping for this relevant post by ConservativeMan55:

“I guess I will be post #44. And I guess I am Conservative Man age 59, so I’m your elder; listen to me.

I totally agree with this post. If a poster disagrees with Beck, the facts and conclusions should be debated....not substituted by a personal attack.

Wow. The Beck haters are out in droves tonight. Their comments are what I’d expect to see on a thread at Huffington Post or the Daily Kos. They ignore the facts that Glenn Beck presents and resort to the liberal’s favorite pastime: name calling. I’d bet they didn’t even watch tonight’s show let alone read the documentation and research provided in the show recap on his website. He was right on point tonight. Why do so many want to shoot the messenger? Perhaps they prefer the phony MSM or they want to keep their heads buried in the sand.

Glenn covers complicated issues and in a concise, clear and logical way. He covers topics the MSM would never touch in a million years. He’s one of the few in the public eye who has the courage to tell the TRUTH about what our country is facing, and he backs it up with cold hard facts. He offers his opinion, but he asks that you do your own research and thinking to come to your own conclusion.

I believe that Glenn is a true patriot who should be commended for his outstanding (and courageous) work. He is helping to wake people up and encourages Americans to think for themselves. He is educating Americans who are willing to listen. Who else in the media is doing that? We must know what the problem is before we can come up with a solution. He is giving both; a historical/fact based perspective and rational suggestions to turn the ship around that are based on our founding principles, individual freedom, free markets, fiscal responsibility, constitutionally limited small government and faith. Oh the horrors!

The President we have is scaring me more than Glenn. He doesn’t seem to know what he’s doing. If we face a determined foe I fear Obama will fold up like a house of cards. Beck had a good show tonight!

Just the fact that the population has been dumbed down to the moron level, electing a Marxist, and probably illegal puppet, as POTUS told me that America’s days are numbered.
