It happened Anyway
Posted by Michelle Moquin on August 6th, 2011
So the ruthless republicans got their way anyway. Obama did what they wanted and we still lost our AAA rating. The republicans will make sure that Obama is not successful no matter what he does. I am sickened by this.

Belinda: What you said to Ym was what I was thinking and didn’t say. I too don’t condone cheating. But yes Ym:: I agree with Belinda. You may just be the saving grace in her day to day existence in the marriage. The way you adore her..the words you use to describe your love for her…if your actions are anything like what you say, in my opinion she is yours for life, in any manner that she can be. That kind of love is precious, and not a love that one can easily give up or even want to….for either of you. I say this with a bit more passion this morning because the angst that I feel because of the state of our country, makes me want to grab ahold of the love that I have even more so. When all feels like it is going to shit, life doesn’t seem so bad, when the one you love…the one that you can count on, is by your side.
Readers: I HOPE that in the craziness of this world, you have someone that you care deeply about, that cares deeply about you, by your side.
Peace & Love: “Live it, Give it”

What You heard from Standard & Poor was written by the republican party’s chief political analysist. That same speech will be used in campaign ads for the republican candidate for President of the USA to claim that Obama is not capable of managing the government of the USA.
Interesting isn’t it that Standard & Poor gave AAA ratings to the junk mortgage bonds and all 8 years of the Bush administration. Why considering they were the only two to default on their debts to their investors and to the public.
If you are not a market savvy person. Those ratings are only about the possibility that the debtor will default on his debt to the person who has purchased his bonds.
An AAA rating means their is practically no chance that that will happen. So far the USA has NEVER defaulted on its debts, bond or otherwise in its history.
Moody was also poised to join Standard & Poor. Anonz threatened to move his money elsewhere on other rating houses, so Moody stood pat.
Let’s see what the ramifications are for Standard & Poor for backing those that have put their fortunes in controlling the price of Gold and or Silver.
There is coming a battle among the super rich to control the commodities, water, food, and medium of monetary exchange for those items.
Some want that to be Gold and/or Silver. Anonz wants it to be the US dollar.
In this fight by the super rich Apple thinks it can play the seek thief and corner the market in the tech field. As longs as Anonz has controlling shares he will look the other way.
The competing factors are backing Google and a few others. The race in the tech fields is to buy up all existing patents. Howie’s posts on Tesla was apropos because his among others is one of the patent creators being fiercely bided on.
Countries, their borders or politics no longer matter for the most part. The race is for money and power at all cost.
Anonz sees this as a no win situation because the greed is blinding the super rich into thinking that their money will be able to stop those who are not influenced by the need for more money.
The religious fanatic and the power ego manic will do anything. Anonz sees the political struggle in Russia by Putin to control the world through his KGB Russian Mafia and the Chinese’s desire to provide for the coming energy and space needs of its billions as a brick wall that those to greedy to take seriously will hit.
If there is no more honest men like Obama who can command some order in the coming chaos. The next 6 years will be time for huge losses and gains for the players.
So huge that governments will fall and people will die by the hundreds of millions.
The scare tactics used by the republican party to get americans to invest in their gold and silver mines will not be enough to save either group from the disaster they are creating to attempt to corner a market that frankly Anonz has been laying low in.
He is poised to announced many new Gold and Silver mine discoveries as soon as those crafty billionaires think they have cornered their Gold and Silver market.
They should have studied their history. They would have learned the lesson Anonz father taught the Hunts when they attempted to corner a commodities market.

As a Canadian, I am loving this!! The Republicans always refer to “European socialism” like it’s a bad thing and they can use it to scare low-information, gullible and naive conservatives with it.
They never use Canada as an example, because Americans aren’t “afraid” of Canada, and then how would they manipulate their minions??
I’ve been pushing policies that work here in Canada because I am confident they would work in the U.S. as well. Universal health care,
STRICT banking regulations, strong unions, year-long maternity leave, healthy pension plan, and hassle-free, available abortion services for women who seek it. We’re YOU – only BETTER!!!

For generations, Americans have been lied to and made to associate socialism with the USSR.
The first thing most Americans think of when they hear the word is totalitarianism and drab austerity.
We’ve been victim of the big lie for 60 years.
Ironically, out of all those countries, it is the U.S. that most resembles the USSR.
It is OUR infrastructure that is crumbling.
It is OUR people who are going uneducated.
It is OUR population that is being continuously spied upon.
It is OUR population that finds it increasingly difficult to emigrate.
I
t is OUR population that will soon generate huge numbers of economic refugees.
Or, will they really be political refugees of an oppressive conservative/corporatist/national security state.
At least the Soviets and Cubans could be accepted into free countries as defectors from oppressive states.
Americans don’t have that advantage.
I see no other alternative than revolution as long as the TP insists on playing the role of Whigs.

When will America wake up and learn something? These are all socialist leaning countries who take care of their own people. No one is without health insurance, there is a high standard of education and they are financially stronger than we are. We are falling behind in every possible way that matters.
There is something terribly wrong and dangerously short sighted about the values and priorities of our country.
August 6th, 2011 at 6:57 pm
You know what I find amazing in this ? is the fact that these Countries rated HIGHER than the US financially ALL have socialized Medicine...or a Single payer system.
They are not only financially stronger BUT not one of their citizens are turned away for healthcare.
WHEN are we going to get this right ?

Canada has some of the strictest banking regulations in the world.
And that’s probably why we didn’t have a housing bubble and have already recovered every job lost during the recession – which was minor here.
It’s not LESS regulations that makes it that way – it”s MORE.
