The communists (Democrats) propaganda is definitely trying to convince people Obama has made the country better by spending us into oblivion. At the same time, they are using the word 'austerity' to scare us into not spending. The problem with how they define austerity is saying if the government does not get more money from the people, that is austerity. In fact, stealing more money from the people leaves the people in austerity and the government bloated. Some Times Magazine flak has come out with a book saying printing money and government spending saved us, timed to coincide with the DNC convention saying the same thing. I don't know if our people are stupid enough to buy this garbage, but it is frightening that they might.

Those that are too lazy to take care of themselves are, and those that want something for nothing are, and those that hate the rich are, they want to take everything from those that have it, and run, and they then will continue to make the same mistakes they have always made, and be broke again in a few months, becuase they are suckers, and there have always been two to take them, and take them they will, they are called our elected representatives, from the white house through congress, they are going to take everything from everyone, and become the oppresssors.

Every Time I go in to a store and see that Pravda magazine with the moniker Time I become ill as recall the days when it was considered a legitimate source of objective political news.
Now it is nothing but Birdcage material -camping trip emergency paper -the front page rivals Mad Magazine in it's hilarity in every issue they produce -they never let you down with those covers they produce -pushing the Leftist agenda.

Don't worry. Time magazine is self-destructing just like Newsweek!

Your comment grabbed me.
But it's not just TIME, it's dozens, if not hundreds of used-to-be-objective news sources.
What has happened?? Where was I when all the "Journalists" retired and were replaced by hacks??
In Russia it was government censorship. What we have is left-leaning censorship.
The non and under reported stories are all in a day's work at NYT, LAT, WAPO, etc.Oh, and they're joiuned by the phonies in the electronic media.
If Romney/Ryan pull this one off in the face of a horde of hostile media, it will tell me that my country is still intact.

Bernanke said we would not monetize the debt, but that is exactly what we and Europe are trying to do. At the same time, China is running into the same problem the American people are, they are getting junk money to pay off the giant debt the world owes them from China stealing most of the consumer manufacturing.

China is ready to crash when it is found out they are cooking the books on the numbers for their economy. China is finding out you must have customers to be an export economy. They will also find out that no matter how you would like the numbers to look, eventually reality takes over.

This is why being on a hard currency standard of some kind makes more sense than fiat money. When all nations were on the gold standard, when one country started running low on gold they weren't able to import anymore and had to start exporting to the countries that had the gold. When one nation had too much gold, they had to start importing and give some of that gold back or else their own trade would be hurt by their hoarding of the gold. With the fiat currencies we all use, there is no need to give anything back because you can print as much of it as you want to. There is no need to balance your trade deficits. One country (China) can do all the manufacturing jobs and every other country can simply print the money they need to buy.

This leads to a global inflation as all the countries keep printing more and more money to pay for their import habit and naturally China manipulates their currency to counter the inflation to keep the prices of Chinese made goods artificially low so that manufacturing can never take hold again in the countries they trade with.

It’s a good thing that Joe Biden and Barack Obama saved the car company that saved Detroit.

Some Detroiters were so thankful that they stole some Biden gear that was headed down to the Democrat National Carnival. A U-Haul with Biden’s VP accoutrement was jacked over the weekend from the Westin hotel according to the Secret Service.

“Ed Donovan, a spokesman for the USSS,” reports ABCNews blog The Note “told ABC News the truck carrying equipment was stolen between late Saturday night and early Sunday morning at the Westin Hotel in Detroit. He would not specify what kind of...
