|
| By Javier Blas, Robert Cookson & Sarah O'Connor | Financial Times | Feb. 28, 2008
It was d-day for the dollar yesterday - 'D', as in downward, devalued and dumped. The greenback sank to all-time low versus a basket of currencies, and broke for the first time through the psychological $1.50 level against the euro, as Ben Bernanke suggested that he would continue to cut interest rates to prop up the US economy.

First Annual State of the Revolution
|
| By Edgar J. Steele | ConspiracyPenPal.com | Feb. 17, 2008
It seems only fair to me. A couple of weeks ago, our so-called President got his say, then the so-called Democrats gave their response. Now, all that is missing is the truth. I intend to give at least part of that to you today. What's more, I see this "State of the Revolution" report being necessary at least once each year, until it no longer is necessary because America has ceased to exist or until it no longer is possible, likely because I am dead or in jail. Others will pick up the standard, in that event. Read

Immigrant Human Katrina Flooding Into The United States
|
| By Frosty Wooldridge | NewsWithViews.com | Feb. 18, 2008
Except for a miracle third party run from Ron Paul, we stand 10 months away from the next president opening our borders to a flood of humanity. Obama, Hillary and McCain promise to give amnesty to 20-30 million illegal aliens, continue chain migration, double U.S. immigration from 1.0 to 2.0 million annually and accept unending millions of anchor babies. This means 70 million immigrants and their children will flood into America by 2040—a heartbeat in time of 32 years. Read

|
