how come the new notes are dated 2009 with timmy's signature?
i've been waiting to see loooooo 's signature for nothing.
i call scam, just like "god save the queen" and "my country tis of thee"
are the same freakin' tune, someone just changed the words.
couldn't even come up with an original anthem, of sorts.
and the new notes look like they threw in a little hat tip to china
in the design.

here another feature of the new notes.
the liberty bell appears as a hologram,
once in blue and alternates with a hologram
of the number 100 and the other in gold which
appears on the ink well associated with the
quill and defaced, obscured, partial transcript
of the declaration of independence.
franklin would likely comment ," ma'am, you
could not keep your republic."

Sorry WB, gotta break ranks and thumbs down this one.

 

RP said all the right stuff, but smacked of controlled opposition. His son, Rand, reveals the true nature of the beast.

 

Norman Rockwell Amerika has been gutted, stuffed and mounted on the wall of those who truly run the show...and it ain't you and me. Don't forget that long before these pics were cranked out by NR, the us congress was cutting all manner of deals and shady goings-on to rob the productive class. The federal reserve act was passed in 1913! Where were all those stand up citizen-politicians then?

 

All the shit which roils this country has roots that go very deep...and deep roots take time to develop. While the corrupt of that era were busy plying their trade, they had a banzai type character imbuing the masses of what america really "was". I say it was never true, and humans are humans...fundemetally rotten to the core.

 

To pretend otherwise is folly.

 

You, better than anyone, should understand the danger inherent in creating false icons for mass consumption.

Ron Paul, what a guy. He's sweet, honest, hard working, straight shooting, so. Norman Rockwell. The elite masters must hate everything that he seems to be. So why haven't they Daley Plaza'd him? He's an easy target. Because his gold standard rant is exactly what they want more than anything else. Since they have all the gold, and there's much more than people know about, Ron is leading the masses right into their hands.

I've always loved, and supported him, but I'm sorry to say that he has inadvertant shill written all over him. With dead bodies all over the political landscape, how is it that this guy freely goes around seemingly tearing the NWO a new one? I've never heard anyone explain that.

"I'm sorry to say that he has inadvertant shill written all over him."
 

You make two errors:

1) 'Since they have all the gold'  -  Really, are you sure about that? Evidence suggests a massive move of western gold to eastern vaults in exchange for currency stability, trade settlements and unsustainably cheap ME oil, priced in the currency of exorbitant privilege. 

http://fofoa.blogspot.com/2013/02/checkmate.html

http://beforeitsnews.com/gold-and-precious-metals/2013/09/gold-is-moving-from-west-to-east-2530280.html

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/guest-post-world%E2%80%99s-gold-moving-west-east

and it is ongoing, http://www.gata.org/node/12734

 

2) 'So why haven't they Daley Plaza'd him?'  -  You think martyring Ron Paul was a viable strategy for the control freaks? Hardly.  With a supremely controlled media, it was far easier to marginalize and blackout the Congressman than to take the risky step of assassination.  Now, if Dr. Paul had ever managed to gain GOP 'presumed' presidential candidate status, you can bet your scenario would have played out.

Reagan was an outsider who did not want to play by their rules. He briught in David Stockman, Paul Craig Roberts and had Ron Paul begin a Commission to see the feasibility of returning us to a Gold Standard.

 

Within TWO Months of taking Office he was shot...almost fatally. The Secret Service are US Treasury Agents after all.

 

After that Reagan did what the Washington DC Establishment wanted. Isn't it funny how a Bullet to the chest solves problems?

Ron Paul always gets a green arrow up from me for telling it like it is (unlike his knit witted politically opportunistic spawn).

And even though I don't agree with everything he says (only a moron agrees with everything someone else says) I like him and consider him to  be a decent human being. 

That is what these portraits are about (Carlin, Hendrix, Zappa, Belushi etc.).  I am doing pictures of people whom I like to restore the Tao in my mental outlook.

And it makes no fucking difference if anyone else likes the people I like.

I like them anyway.

And speaking of people whom really I like...I really really do like Malala

 

 

 

MALALA

 

Here's the thing, I am very happy to report that I have lots of people that I admire for different reasons and I enjoy sharing my images of them.

We need better icons than Norman Rockwell painted. Malala is a good choice.

I like Rockwell's work but he tended to see America as more heroic than it probably was even at the time. The Soviet Union was doing the same thing of course, but their's was evil propaganda and ours was wholesome Americana. His later work was less heroic and more gritty, perhaps. I think he was sensing the changes happening in America. If so, then his art was as good an act of reporting as anyone else. For example, as good as your own William.

Malala shot in the head is our own. The poisoned children in Fukushima are our own. So are the generations of children in America being born into crushing debt slavery that will drive many to murder, robbery, drug abuses and suicide. We make these realities so we need to face them.

As a loyal follow of your work for more than 3 years, I find this revision of Norman's grea works one of your best! Some of your stuff is more than great, it is prophetic, but this one...............I guess you could say "it says it all".

I do not have the words in my meger vocabulary to express how great I think your work is, all I can do is say "keep pouring it too em"

I disesembled my old man's M-1 Garand late last night, cleaned it, and reesembled it. Something I was taught how to do by age 10 and never forgot. He taught me how to do it in the dark by just feel, he said "someday you life may depend on being able to do it in the dark, in the mud or snow or rain".  Needless to say to you, but my greiving has just begun, as you well know, is goiing to take some time.

Keep pouring it to em, my good friend, keep pouring it to em!

i heard it asked recently
"what is a debt limit that is constantly
raised when the limit is resoundingly ignored?"
or something like that.
it is a charade and a joke, an oxymoron.
anyway ...
i suppose it is a useful tool to bludgeon the
intelligence of the average misseducated
financially illiterate voter and political
supporter so they never understand the
nature of the money scam that is destroying
their nation, communities and finances.

I don't need three mansions on the Riviera, Cancun' or Breckenridge, or 12 mansions, or 50 Rolls Royces.  Makes no difference.  I appreciate what the graph says, but you can't put a price on peace of mind or happiness: it's priceless.  If that's to be called ignorance because one doesn't covet what the ultra-rich have, then I'm ignorant.  How they got it, I don't know.  How they use it is up to them.  I make no judgements.  We all have to live with ourselves now; and account for ourselves later.  I thank God for all the many blessings I have in this world.  10 billion dollars would sour things for me, not make them better.

the money system and its constant high end jockeying
have facilitated the conversion of the richest nation
in the world into the the worlds prison complex, police
state and
open air homeless shelter with the most expensive and
potentially deadly health care system run for profit
and paying off massively fraudulent, inflated debts
of illegal and immoral induction, it is the system.
everything they teach is lie based to promote influential
propaganda.
the simple truth secreted away and cloaked in a luxurious
blanket of fraud and lies, the technique.

Why a war on poor people?

."
This topic hasn't gotten the attention it deserves in studies of American politics. One exception is the work of Frances Fox Piven and Richard Cloward. In Poor People's Movements: Why They Succeed, How They Failthey offer a powerful interpretation of the challenge of bringing poverty into politics.
Most poor people are "working poor" and are not homeless. But there are hundreds of thousands of homeless people in the United States, and their living conditions are horrible. Here is a powerful and humanizing album that captures some of the situation of homeless people in America. Give US Your Poor is worth listening to. Here is the title clip of the album:".
