A nice refresher into what happened in Mexico, and good to keep in mind when we want to blame “them” for our economic problems when in fact they were manufactured by our own government. By 1994, Mexico had restored its standing with investors. It had a balanced budget, a growth rate of over three percent, and a stock market that was up fivefold. In February 1995, Jane Ingraham wrote in The New American that Mexico’s fiscal policy was in some respects “superior and saner than our own wildly spendthrift Washington circus.” Mexico received enormous amounts of foreign investment, after being singled out as the most promising and safest of Latin American markets. Investors were therefore shocked and surprised when newly-elected President Ern...

"There are 23 of these conservative-leaning Democratic House members who voted for Pelosi's Obamacare back in November, which passed by just five votes, with 39 Democrats defecting to vote against the bill. All 23 of these congressmen who did vote for the Pelosi bill are extremely vulnerable. Opponents of Obamacare need to climb all over these 23 congressmen with TV ads and advocacy campaigns in their districts to get them to change their vote this time, to vote "no" to the Senate bill when it comes before the House. Voters need to say, "You voted for Obamacare the first time. But your district opposes it by 2 to 1. Now it is coming up for a vote again. Listen to your constituents and vote no. We don’t want Medicare cuts or premium increases or rationing of medical care. Don’t monkey with our healthcare. Vote no this time.” Since the House healthcare bill passed by five votes, much has happened and the political landscape has changed dramatically. The Massachuse...

A Prayer to Saint Michael Saint Michael, Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen. America Needs Fatima Legion - a new movie of despair and blasphemy that contradicts Our Lady's Fatima message of hope Send your instant e-protest message to Sony, the distributors of Legion. January 19, 2010 Dear Erlinda Carino, On January 22, Sony will release the f a n t a s y Apocalypse thriller Legion in theaters nationwide. A f i l m that Mocks the Faith and Leads to Despair And it challenges God in these 5 important points: 1) Everything is upside down: St. Michael the Archangel is the rebel angel 2) God has lost faith in men! The world is lost! 3) Blasphemous absurdity: St. Michael/Rebel Angel/S a t a n comes to save a wai...

James Simpson is a Harvard Professor. His entire article can be found at www.americanthinker.com. Cloward-Piven Government By James Simpson It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact. In September of last year, American Thinker published my article, "Barack Obama and the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis". Part of a series, it connected then presidential candidate Barack Obama to individuals and organizations practicing a malevolent strategy for destroying our economy and our system of government. Since then the story of that strategy has found its way across the blogosphere, onto the airwaves of radio stations across the country, the Glenn Beck television show, Bill O'Reilly and now Mark Levin. The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and we can all be grateful to David Horowitz and his Discover the Networks for originally expos...

Catholic Schools and Homosexuality On September 6th, the Wanderer reported Zogby International in a survey of 1,003 high school students found that 80% of Catholic seniors believe homosexuals should have the right to marry while only two-thirds of the total of all demographic high school senior groups in the survey claimed gay marriages should be legal. In recent polls only "about one-third of adults" said gay marriages should be legal. Continued Dennis Gilbert of Hamilton College, in Clinton, N.Y., who did the survey, said that “large majorities of seniors take pro-gay positions on relevant gay issues. And virtually every definable demographic group took these positions,“ apart from evangelical or “born-again” Christians, said the Wanderer. According to Father X- a priest in the San Jose Diocese who must remain anonymous- the diocese document "Pastoral Guidelines for Ministry to Homosexuals in the Diocese of San Jose "contributes to the ethical confusion on homose...

The spiritual maxims of the Holy Mother St. Teresa, for her nuns: 1. Untilled ground, however rich, will bring forth thistles and thorns; so also, the mind of man. 2. Speak well of all that is spiritual, such as religious, priests, and hermits. 3. Let thy words be few when in the midst of many. 4. Be modest in all thy words and works. 5. Never be obstinate, especially in things of no moment. 6. In speaking to others be always calm and cheerful. 7. Never make a jest of anything. 8. Never rebuke any one but with discretion, and humility, and self-abasement. 9. Bend thyself to the temper of whomever is speaking to thee: be merry with the mirthful, sorrowful with the sad: in a word, make thyself all things to all, to gain all. 10. Never say anything thou hast not well considered and earnestly commended to our Lord, that nothing may be spoken which shall be displeasing unto Him. 11. Never defend thyself unless there be very good reasons for it. 12. Never mention anything concerning thyself ...

Obamacare is Obortioncare Herod Obama ordered the massacre of all the boys and girls in America and its vicinity nine months and under in the mother's womb... Then was fulfilled what had been said through Jeremiah the prophet: "A voice was heard in Ramah, sobbing and loud lamentation; Rachel weeping for her children, and she would not be consoled, since they were no more."

The first article is from a sincere leftist and the next two are from generally reliable sources. Who knows? Fred http://www.nowpublic.com/barack_obama_neocon_disguise_0 Barack Obama is a Neocon in Disguise uploaded by chet July 31, 2007 The 2004 Democratic National Convention was most remembered for a young, energetic senator the likes of the American people had not seen since Bobby Kennedy. With his DNC presentation, Barack Obama was launched into the national spotlight, lauded for his populist-themed speech that became universally described as “articulate”. More importantly, Obama was bringing a new style of rhetoric to the political table that ultimately set the stage for the 2006 elections and his current presidential campaign. Anyone unsure of his political record was still aware of his staunch criticism of the Iraq War. From this national appearance he filled a political void by connecting with the growing anti-Iraq-war movement. But in more recent speeches, Obama has clar...

"Rejection of the Fatherhood of God by the vast majority of mankind inevitably has set in motion a chain reaction of consequences affecting fatherhood under every aspect that we have considered here. The notion of fatherhood in many families, for example, has been reduced to a biological fact. And the role of the father as the head of the family has completely gone out of style...the disintegration of the family inexorably and inevitably is leading to the disintegration of society itself....But the spirit of anti-fatherhood has entered even the Catholic Church. Recognition of the fatherhood of the Vicar of Christ...has eroded to an alarming degree...the role of priestly fatherhood is now coveted by women, seeking to escape the noble destiny which God has prepared for their sex, but which nevertheless they are taught to regard as drudgery.

This is the best summary of the present economic crisis. To get more details read Dick Morris' Fleeced and Ellen Brown's Web of Debt . This article and the two books show how to get out of mess, also. Fred A Small Bridge... The global economic problem is the problem of too much debt: personal, corporate, municipal, state and national. And there is no "solution," except (perhaps) for a "system re-set." The case for a "Jubilee" year of debt forgiveness... By Dr. Robert Moynihan, reporting from Rome Yes, the problem is the debt. The debt is not large, it is colossal. And there are only two possibilities for paying off the debt: (1) many, many years of belt-tightening and lower consumption (read, global depression); and (2) an abrupt repudiation of the debt, and the total collapse of world trade, with an effect perhaps not completely unlike the collapse of trade that came with the fall of the Roman Empire in the late 5th century, followed by the centu...
