CBS Allows Fed To Spread Disinformation Unchallenged
"The Fed Chief has been wrong on almost every major prophecy he’s given since he’s been in office. Just 4 years ago, Ben Bernanke predicted “a leveling out or a modest softening” in residential real estate prices and that homeowners were in “reasonably good”financial shape. Three years ago, Mr. Bernanke said the sub-prime mortgage crisis “seems likely to be contained.” Since then, we’ve had record foreclosures in the millions per year, and in some markets, home values have been cut in half!"
Neocon: Julian Asswanker Should Be Shot
"If anything, the private conversations of diplomats and security professionals paint a world even more dangerous than the one we usually allow ourselves to describe publicly. And there seems to be more consistency with this American worldview on the part of our friends and allies than is generally admitted. Quite an exposé. "
-- Gen. Michael V. Hayden (US DCI, 2006-2009), describing the 2010 Wikileaks Cablegate disclosures

Julian Asswanker Should Be Shot
Evidently he is "offended" that someone has shown what our corrupt government does with the other Collectivist governments throughout the world. Just leave us alone so we can continue our perpetual wars.

“Students Would Rather Shoot Themselves Than Appear Before Lee In Disgrace”
"There are certain social principles in human nature, from which we may draw the most solid conclusions with respect to the conduct of individuals and of communities. We love our families more than our neighbors; we love our neighbors more than our countrymen in general. The human affections, like solar heat, lose their intensity as they depart from the centre... On these principles, the attachment of the individual will be first and for ever secured by the State governments. They will be a mutual protection and support."
--Alexander Hamilton, speech at the New York Ratifying Convention, 1788

(I looked for years until I found one that I thought truly looked like General Lee and when I saw this one, I immediately bought it. I believe he used the picture Lee standing on the porch at his home in Richmond after his return for the likeness. Very similar.BT)
During his tour of the postwar South in 1867-68, Scottish missionary David MacRae visited with General Robert E. Lee in Lexington. He found a college president who was venerated throughout the South, and as one of the professor’s reported, “students would rather shoot themselves than appear before Lee in disgrace.”

Lee’s Standard of a Man’s Worth:
“I knew from report that Lee was reticent on political subjects, and wisely so, his position in the country since the war was demanding the utmost prudence. I, therefore, made no attempts during the interviews I had with him to “draw him out”; at the same time I spoke freely on all subjects that came naturally in the way. Political topics were, therefore, referred to; but Lee was on his guard, and I could not but notice the admirable delicacy and tact with which, as often as the conversation threatened to become political, he contrived to turn it into another channel.
At his home I met some of the professors, and conversation went on briskly; but I noticed that whenever they introduced political topics, Lee became silent, and allowed the conversation to go on without him.
One of his sons told me that his father’s answer to direct inquiries on vexed questions was that he was a soldier, not a politician. In speaking of the war, reference was made to the odds against which the South had fought, and the want there was of accurate statistics. I told Lee it was understood he was preparing a history of the conflict himself. “I have that in view,” he said, “but the time is not come for impartial history. If the truth were told just now, it would not be credited.”
Speaking of Lexington and its neighbourhood, he said, -- “You will meet with many of your countrymen here. The valley of Virginia is peopled with Scotch-Irish…They are a fine race. They have the courage and determination of the Scotch, with the dash and intrepidity of the Irish. They make fine soldiers.”
He said it was an old wish of his to visit this country…Stonewall Jackson had been in Scotland before the war. He had heard him speak of it. When he spoke of Jackson I was struck with the emphasis he placed on his piety. One cannot indeed be long with Lee without finding his Christian character revealing itself almost unconsciously in his manners and conversation. I remember with peculiar distinctness the solemnity with which, at table, standing before his family, he asked God’s blessing on the food. Also, when he referred to a gentleman whom he wished me to see in Richmond, his saying that he had rarely met “with a nobler or more Christian man.” It was only a word, and yet it showed by what standard he gauged a man’s worth.”
