Watch the whole video.
I've taken some heat for being so optimistic, and I'm fine with it because I understand everything that is in this video and I see good people here becoming depressed and negative.
I will continue to be positive because I know the MSM is playing psy-ops with us and this forum is one of the last bastions of freedom. You MUST watch the whole video, some of you will feel better, some of you will be ashamed of yourselves, but you will be much smarter in the end.
Ronald Reagan was a genius, he knew all of this, he knew more about the left than ANYONE and infused his good will with the nation BECAUSE of what is contained in this video.
Instead of becoming hysterical about Obama's "Ministry of Truth" in Missouri, the Obama Youth Camps, the 700 Billion Dollar Bullet we just dodged, GET YOUR HEAD STRAIGHT.
This video will clarify all of the things you see happening, you won't bother posting "when will the MSM report this and that", they never will. Understand the enemy. Please watch the whole video.
Onward and upward, that's where we're going.
Please watch this video and prevent yourself from becoming manipulated, or even worse, being a pawn.
Bravo, please don’t let me be pwned!!!!!
Important to Saul Alinsky was creating hysteria in the masses to achieve his government takeovers.

We MAY have dodged a torpedo yesterday. No matter what the pro-bailout people think. Smart people can be tricked too.
Agreed. This economy stuff was a total set up.
Not saying that we’re not going to have a down turn but the panic is un-necessary and irresponsible.
It’s a set-up.

OK, you got your pwned in. I proudly have never used pwned. Funny thing though is that I am a long-time user of owned and destroyed, etc. I’m a very competitive person and I like “owning” opponents. My use of that word has been co-opted and I hardly use it anymore.
Since you posted here, I insist you watch the whole video and report back.
Do you think the Democrats and Obama Campaign and Black Caucus and Freddie/Fannie...caused this on purpose? I wonder...

Bail out and global warming equal Phil Harris’s “The Thing”.
While I was walking down the beach one bright and sunny day
I saw a great big wooden box a-floatin in the bay
I pulled it in and opened it up and much to my surprise
Ooh, I discovered a boom-boom-boom, right before my eyes
Oh, I discovered a boom-boom-boom, right before my eyes
I picked it up and ran to town as happy as a king
I took it to a guy I knew whod buy most any thing
But this is what he hollered at me as I walked in his shop
Oh, get outta here with that boom-boom-boom, before I call a cop
Oh, get outta here with that boom-boom-boom before I call a cop
I turned around and got right out, a-runnin for my life
And than I took it home with me to give it to my wife
But this is what she hollered at me as I walked in the door
Oh, get outta here with that boom-boom-boom, and dont come back no more
Oh, get outta here with that boom-boom-boom, and dont come back no more
I wandered all around the town until I chanced to meet
A hobo who was looking for a hand-out on the street
He said hed take most any old thing, he was a desperate man
But when I showed him the boom-boom-boom, he turned around and ran
Oh, when I showed him the boom-boom-boom, he turned around and ran
I wandered on for many years, a victim of my fate
Until one day I came upon St. Peter at the gate
And when I tried to take it inside, he told me where to go
Get outta here with that boom-boom-boom and take it down below
Oh, get outta here with that boom-boom-boom and take it down below
The moral of this story is if youre out on the beach
And you should see a great big box and its within your reach
Dont ever stop and open it up, thats my advice to you
Cause youll never get rid of the boom-boom-boom, no matter what you do
Oh, youll never get rid of the boom-boom-boom, no matter what you do
(boom-boom-boom = 3 strikes on the drum)

Not just Freddie and Fannie, they set in motion many plans that they know or don’t care if and when they fail. As long as it spends YOUR money and makes the government larger.
For the more nefarious, all the better if it fails, there’s your “crisis”. I believe 99% of them don’t even know they’re doing it, they’re the “useful idiots”
Why Bush keeps these people around is beyond me. That was the biggest failure and mistake of his presidency. He should have summarily dismissed all the Clinton holdovers.
To his detriment and ours, they have destroyed his presidency and made him look like a joke.
I’m not trying to be optimistic or pessmistic.
If I knew a person who bought a house with an interest only mortgage and lived in it for 5 years, and got 10 credit cards and maxed them out, I would be quick to note that he has built a massive debt that will either bankrupt him or take him years of saving and modest living to dig himself out of.
That is our current economy. It is not pessimistic to point out the massive debt at every level in our economy and to point out the structural problems in the FIRE economy and to extrapolate those problems to their logical conclusion — a long, deep recession and the destruction of huge amounts of debt that are now based on far lower equity that they were or than they were predicted to be based on.
Sorry I can’t be “optimistic”. Sorry I can’t look at the real world problems and be “optimistic”. So far, my “pessimism” has saved me a 20% haircut in the stock market that I would have taken if I were “optimistic”.
I say, look at the data sitting right in front of you, analyze it and judge wisely. The data are there. You only have to open your eyes to see it.
I realize that analyzing wide-spread economic data is confusing, frustrating and difficult. I realize how much misinformation there is. I realize how sinister the MSM is and how easy it is to dismiss anything they say as evil propaganda (which it generally is). But sometimes the truth drops right in their lap and gives them a golden opportunity.
The economy is in very bad shape over the short term. A long, deep recession is all but guaranteed. I love optimistic, up-beat, can-do people but then, you can’t prepare yourself for what is coming if you don’t see it realistically.
Good luck.
Please watch and report back.
Sorry I cant be optimistic. Sorry I cant look at the real world problems and be optimistic. So far, my pessimism has saved me a 20% haircut in the stock market that I would have taken if I were optimistic.

I’m not asking you to be optimistic. I’m asking you to watch the video. Everything will make a lot more sense when you do, trust me.
I have been wondering if we should substitute the word "TANTRUM" for "panic".
"See what we can do to your 401(k)?" "Buy this car TODAY or NEVER!!" "It's a CRISIS".
OK, on paper I lost five digits yesterday.
But I also know if I run my business with criminal stupity and short sightnededness, I deserve to go down. I do not expect YOU to give ME a good severance package for being a greedy shortsighted idiot.
I saw enough of that in the last few decades in Fortune 500's. We would get someone who would ruin a division, and it would cost us millions to get rid of him. Amazingly, he would go on to a better position, and loot and wreck that. There were never any consequences.
Show me some real consequences for these people or don't ask me for a cent.

I woke up this morning with one thought on my mind - George Soros would love what is happening here and why is everyone behaving like we’ve all been drugged?
I wanted to write it down on FreeRepublic but too ashamed to write it and didn’t want to be laughed at. So I posted a few lame things and got on with my day. My gut hurting.
This video is what I was thinking about - and I see there are others who find it rings with truth.
Thank you for posting it.
