'zero interest forever' Bernanke. The others lately are Obamacare, Student Loans and the new 'sub-prime home loans' guaranteed by Fannie and Freddie.
The stock market reached a new all time high after Ben Bernanke announced the economy is still not good enough to take the foot off of zero interest rates and might not be for 3 more years!
Yesterday we found out that Obama fired Gen. Carter Ham on the spot a year ago when our Ambassador was killed in Libya. General Ham ordered military forces to go to the rescue in Benghazi and refused to back down. This, of course, had to be covered up for the sake of the President and Hillary Clinton so the public has never even heard this possibility explored in a year of 'phony scandals' and compliant corporate media.
Today it was also announced that the agreement we made with Syria and Russia to destroy Syria's chemical weapons fell apart because it will take lots of time and cost lots of money. Last week we were threatening war unless this took place but this week it is 'never mind' .
Last Friday a lone gunman gunned down 27 people at the Navy Yard Facility in D.C. before being killed himself. During the frantic tv coverage it was reported he was armed with an AR-15 assault rifle (false) and politicians started calling for new gun legislation. It was also reported by two networds that the gunman was somebody else. That poor guy was out driving around town with his 8 year old daughter when he heard the news from a reporter who called him on his cell phone. Needless to say it was a shock to hear that he was wanted dead or alive. No retraction or apology was ever given.
Of course the worst thing about the shooting of 27 civilians at a military facility was that the shooter had been trying to get psychiatric help for months. Unfortunately, he was being treated by the Veterans Administration. In the weeks before last Friday he called police to report the was hearing voices and feeling vibrations from people who were trying to get him. The police notified his employer who stepped in and helped him change rooms in hotels 4 times. They were too dumb to realize that those were not real voices and that the poor guy was going 'bat shit crazy'. So the guy having done all he could to get help got a shot gun and set out to get the bastards who were threatening him by himself. WHAT A COUNTRY!
