India's credit may be downgraded
India had a marginal growth over the past year of only .1%. The expectation was that it would be closer to 1.7%, but as you see it is no where near that. What is the result of this risk? The CENTRAL BANK will have to do some exciting new things to try to boost economy.
Here we go again another country that will be downgraded and a central bank will try to save them. As we know a central group of people have all the knowledge to fix our issues and save the economy. I'm willing to bet they'll try to print a lot of money to boost the economy for it to not do anything and create more issu...
The Middle Class on Foodstamps during the Recession
A couple in Morris county NJ went from making six figures to making $18,000 a year. According to local news stories they had to stop making payments on their house and almost all the children 15 and up have jobs. This area of NJ is known for its expensive houses, and it is estimated any income under $60,000 a year is too low to live in this area.
That being said it shouldn't be this rough on people. If the government wasn't dragging this recessions out while "trying to keep us afloat" we would have hit bottom already. We could of then worked on coming out of the recessions. This temporarily propping us up is harming the average person while lining someone's pocket. We can't move forward until this happens I feel deeply in my heart. History has shown...
Radiation in airports; is it safe?
There are multiple studies testing the effects of radiation from airport security scanners. The biggest argument is that it is far less than radiation from mammograms or other medical procedures. I have yet to hear anyone quantify this issue though. It may be less, but what about the frequent flyers that fly multiple times a week? You don't go to the doctor daily for an x-ray, so I don't feel its a fair comparison. The argument also is that it is below the legal level you are allowed, but just because you're allowed so much radiation should you get it?
So, in short we are basically scanned naked and given levels of radiation that are unnecessary once again for our "safety". I don't know about most people, but I work hard and pay me taxes. ...

Homeland Security Bought too many Drones
The Department of Homeland Security bought so many drones they don't know what to do with them. They don't have a plan to keep all these drones in the sky and utilize them properly. This is amazing considering how close to bankruptcy the United States is. This would be like me not having enough money to buy groceries, but I'll go out and buy 100 toys, but being one person I can't play with 100 at a time. I can't believe their isn't more of an uproar or coverage of this. This is millions of dollars that could of been saved, but instead someone wanted to make a large number of drones. I'm assuming they had this request for their own benefit, but I can't be certain of that. Now the tax payer is stuck with a large number of expensive drones that can't...
Drone Crashes in Maryland...
A US Drone crashes in Maryland.. So it begins with the testing of drones. The drone was going through a test flight and crashed 80 miles outside Washington DC. This is not the first time a drone has crashed while testing or anything else, so we will have thousands of these things flying around soon. People accept this because it makes them safer. What happens if next time it crashes into a house? What if it crashes into a school? Will people still feel safe? The flight is currently under investigation to find out what happened, but I'm afraid when thousands of these are patrolling our skies. Now we have to worry that one may crash while we're sleeping. I know statistically it's probably not likely, but is it worth it for our "safety"?

Congress stuck on student interest rates
Congress is stuck on the student loan interest debate. This is the problem with the government owning everything. The lenders should be allowed to set the interest rates. Now the success of people going to college is riding on our government who is almost bankrupt. Even if they wanted to keep interest rates low the government has no money. So either all tax payers will lose money or student loan cost will go up. Isn't it great when the government gets involved in things?
How do you feel this issue should be resolved? My thoughts are the government should get out of it, so it can go through a correction. It will suck for a year or two, but this issue won't occur again.

New members of congress means unqualified?
Here we go the media is now portraying the new members of congress as being unqualified. The below article mentions how many new members with little political experience are being voted into the house and senate, and this means that things won't pass easily because they don't know how to play the game. People will read this article thinking maybe we should vote a few who know how to play the game in to keep the congress flowing.
I think that is a load of **** to say you need political experience to be in congress. We need people with values and logic to be in there not ones who will bend. There is a political game that has to occur to get anything passed, but you don't need to be a life long politician to know that. You have to give to get, or nothing will get done. ...

Man visited by EPA agents with guns
A man was recently visited by the EPA that were armed after trying to get a hold of a controversial agency official. He is trying to get answers, but he isn't getting far with it.. The good news there are people in congress who are trying to disarm the EPA and look into this issue.
The crazy part to me is when did it start taking weapons to help the environment? How did these people ever get privileges to carry weapons when going to question someone? They are not the FBI, CIA or military so they shouldn't be going to people's houses with weapons. The next big thing is why would you need weapons because someone sent an email to contact someone. We are losing such a large volume of freedom and it is wildly being ignored. Everyone I ask...
Santorum Concerned about Paul..
Rick Santorum said “I like the platform that we have right now. I’m concerned that Ron Paul and some of his supporters out there are looking for a platform fight. And I want to make sure that we have strong, principled conservatives there who stood with me in our primary fight to go there and counterbalance the effect of the Paul folks,”
It is crazy that Rick thinks Paul wants to battle him. It isn't about Rick or Mitt; it is about the overall party. He has a right to be concerned I guess because Paul is picking up delegates left and right. He is trying to quiet the Paul delegates that have suffered broken bones and worked hard to be there. It is crazy that this is becoming a personal war with Rick. Paul if not the nominee will be heard at the RNC. Considering...
Recent Studies Show Military Suicide Rate higher than those killed in combat
Recent information released from the Pentagon show that suicide rate in the military than those killed in combat. There is average 1 suicide a day in today's war that has been going on over a decade. This is thought to be caused by the increase in deployments and the military being overburdened.
Can you imagine the burden that is put on our military to keep us "safe"? This war seems to be never ending, and soldiers keep getting deployed over and over with little break in between. The long months if not years away from your family and never knowing whether you will ever get to see your wife/husband and kids again. This is a sad sacrifice the American people are willing to accept to keep us "safe". I can't understand how people sleep at night knowing they...

Virginia governor backs domestic spy drones
Virginia governor along with Fairfax County police chief had said drones will be of great use in VA in the near future. Where is is this in the MSM(main stream media)? How can people feel sacrificing their freedoms to make police officers jobs easier? This is the rational behind using them in VA, but with ease comes great privacy concerns. They can fly anywhere anytime and record everything happening. No more nude sunbathing in the back yard. Who knows how sophisticated these are... They may be able to see inside windows at some point. Obama has already said some of these drones are as small as golf balls.
They are not supposed to be armed with physical weapons, but the intellectual weapons are scary. Pretty...
Santorum speaking at Texas State Convention
Though a lot of people won't care there are a few things I would like to point out. Below is a picture of Rick speaking via video conference. Notice anything about the crowds signs?
The good news is that he says he won't release his delegates to anyone. He wants them to have influence in the party. Well that means they won't be released to Romney WOO. It also means that adds to the chance of a brokered convention.

Looking at the linguistics of Rand's endorsement contradicts
This is a great article that does some analysis of Rand's endorsement. It goes almost with what I said in my previous blog.(http://therealpoliticalnews.blogspot.com/2012/06/rands-endorsement-deep-look.html) The video is there as well. He doesn't seem to be excited about the nomination. This article does a great job breaking it down.

Rand's endorsement should make us stronger
There have been constant uproar across the web about Rand's endorsement of Mitt Romney. This was a slap in the face to the revolution, but I don't get why people are blaming Ron for his son's decision. He would be a hypocrite if he preaches personal liberty/choices, but he tells his son "NOOO".
Now I think people forget what we're fighting for. There is a lot of hype about maybe this is the best alternative Ron could think of if he really won't have enough to win. Sometimes you have to sacrifice to at least get the Fed audited, etc. To stop some of the wars overseas. If we take control of the GOP, but the GOP is a minority and there is a democratic president no change will be passed. I don't know whether any of these are true, but...
Co-Producer of Schindler’s List Banned from Speaking at a High School for being too conservative
Gerald Molen was supposed to speak at Ronan High School 90 miles from his home. He gets there and the principle told him he was too right wing conservative to address the students. This is insanity and the problem with public education today.
Whatever happened to letting people make their own decisions? Seniors in a high school are young adults, and they should be allowed to formulate their own opinions. The part that annoys me more is that he got there before they told him. They could of at least had the decency to cancel before he spent so much time traveling to the school.
I think our schools are starting to have too much biased. I also feel this principal. should be fired. We have teachers telling students they will go to prison for criticizing...

Rand's Endorsement Deep Look
There is a lot of people that feel violated by Rand's endorsement. Though i do not agree with it, and can't bring myself to vote for Romney I want to take a deeper look at this.
First watch the video.. The endorsement doesn't feel right as he is talking biting his lip. It is the same as when I tell my kids to apologize to each other.. Also, I'm trying to look at the bigger picture. We are taking over the GOP and putting them in the house and senate. If Paul truly can't win and obama does that is a wasted effort. Think about what is going on today with the battles between democrats and republicans. If a democrat is the president everything would be vetoed. If Republicans are minority then our liberty movement stall.
That being said...
Mitt Romney Impersonates Police Officer
Mitt Romney as a young adult would dress as a police officer and pull people over as a "prank". What sort of prank is that? To terrify people making them think they're in trouble when they're not. In the once case he planted a bottle of bourbon in trunk to scare the driver. They had a laugh afterwards though.. I don't think I would be laughing; I would be performing a citizens arrest.
How can someone vote for a person with such an ego as a young adult thinking he was above the law? He bullied kids and dressed as a police officer to scare people and illegally search their vehicle. Whether there were laws back then or not about pretending to be a police officer, there was still a huge violation of privacy. What will he do as a president? I know...
Michelle Obama Stops for Pie
In the below article Mrs. Obama stopped for some pie after a campaign rally. I'm glad our secret service and tax funds are used so well. My bigger issue is we are spending millions to fight obesity, yet she does a photo opt while buying pie. According to her we can't have pie or any junk food or it's the end of the world. I'm glad so many people in the political realm just do things for popularity.

The Hypocritical Soda Ban
Recently in NYC there is talk of banning all sodas over 16 oz. This is crazy thought because then people will just get free refills. It would only apply to restaurants. This is coming from a guy who host the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Championship. I will make a sport out of eating too much, but soda is the problem for our obesity.
The irony of it is now Philadelphia's mayor is jumping on board with it. He does this while cutting the ribbon on a new shake shack fast food chain. I read through articles reading comments and was amazed by what I saw. I thought people would of said "this is stupid" or "this is going too far", but instead I found numerous comments saying "This is needed to fight the epidemic". If people want to eat less buy smaller...
Arresting everyone to find a bank rober
In Colorado recently the police were looking for a bank robber.. What better way to catch him/her than to employ Nazi style tactics and arrest everyone that drove through an intersection. This sets a precedence on what people will accept, and we are going further and further away from freedom.
The constitution clearly states that a person can only be questions/arrested if there is something suspicious you see them doing. Example: walking down a street with spray paint after graffiti was written on a while 1 block away. Something obvious that seems. At that point you can question them, but you have to have something more(my interpretation) to detain them. In this small town they arrested every adult that came through the intersection. This...
US Losing It's Patience with Pakistan
Recently I read that the US is "losing it's patience" with Pakistan. They are a safe haven for terrorist groups, but Pakistan has requested that we stop with drone strikes because it kills a large number of civilians.
It is amazing to me that this all started from one tragic attack on the US. It was a horrible event, but I'm not sure the war on terror will ever end. There will always be a terrorist organization, but are they powerful enough to truly do anything if we play a strong defense vs just attacking? How many more people are we adding to the terrorist organization when a drone kills their children, wife or husband? Many people say that is stupid thought process, but I want you to put yourself in their shoes. You're living in a war zone for 10...

Why Ron Paul is right about the war on drugs
Constantly I see post saying things like "why would you want to legalize drugs?". Dr. Paul is 100% accurate on that fighting drugs with laws don't work. It has been proven that if you treat people with addiction it helps more than throwing them in to prison. In fact minor offenders tend to be violent when they get out of prison..
So to understand this lets look back on the history of trying to outlaw drugs. From the 1600s people were trying to ban smoking due to its risk. There wasn't a lot of restrictions on drugs though until the early 1900s. This was due to a large opium use in common life of people and fear drove people to regulate these drugs. It didn't all together ban them, but it made you need a prescription to get some heavy drugs like heroin...
Losing Reserve Currency Uh Oh.
Here we go it has started.. According to the New York Post (Old article but overlooked by a lot) the United States is losing its status as a reserve currency. This is very scary people because this is the only thing keeping us afloat and out of hyperinflation. If we lose the status as the reserve currency you might as well burn your dollar bills. On top of this Iran has been buying oil with gold and other metals, so we are headed down an ugly road here people.
If you haven't seen the documentary "The Collapse" I recommend you watch it now. I also recommend you invest in commodities with limited quantities like silver, gold and other precious metals. People always say these won't be are currency again, but it works well not because gold is worth so much...
Why Ron Pauls Speaking at the RNC is so Important
As I read through forums, Facebook and other online source, I come across people who are constantly complaining Ron Paul does not speak at state conventions. People need to realize that he can't just show up and give a speech to the crowd. The GOP has broken people's fingers for attempting to do this or turned off their mics.
As seen here
He has to be invited, and I'm willing to bet he is trying, but his biggest focus is getting the grass roots organized. This gets to the point of this post..
I think a very large number of delegates and people in general vote for other candidates because of lack of knowledge or understanding of Dr. Paul. When he speaks he motivates people while proving a valid point. I have never met an ex-Paul supporter in my life. ...
Romney write off GM Debt?
Romney has recently states he would quickly sell all government stock of GM. At current prices that would be at a 15.8 billion dollar loss. How can he make that decision or should he be able to? I don't agree we should of ever bailed out GM, but the government has done it already. NOW he wants to sell the stock and make it so the American people eat the loss?
This is the biggest load of BS I have seen in a while. How can anyone support a man who doesn't care about the people? WAKE UP PEOPLE! He is going to sell the stock and take the loss while GM reaps from the billions in loans it got. I think they should have to pay every dime back to variance whatever stock prices are. The government should of never got into this mess anyways. If it...
Texas State Convention
The Texas state convention is this weekend. This is going to be a battle ground for a very large number of delegates. If you have not yet sign up. The Texas GOP has listed Paul very last as a speaker.
http://convention.texasgop.org/
On top of Ron Paul speaking there will be Paul Ryan, Rick Santorum and Ron Johnson. This will draw a diverse crowd, so if you want your voice heard try to sign up. There may still be slots open. As of last week there were over 80 spots still open.
There are some people seeking assistance with getting to the convention. It can't cost that much, but everybody needs to help get these delegates to Paul the only conservative candidate.

Romney's Emails Hacked
According to news articles Mitt Romney's email was hacked by a non-hacker. He guessed the answer to the secret question. Now that is funny that his email used while gov. could be hacked so easily.
I'm awaiting the release of more information to see what all he hid from people while being a governor. The only thing released so far is his push for a mandate for insurance coverage. This is funny considering he says Obama's is unconstitutional. He is correct that the state can decide for it's people, but I'm willing to bet the people didn't decide. I bet the gov. and state house, etc pushed for it to help their buddies o...
Drones and you
I am constantly seeing all these articles about the US spreading drones. Lets put aside the privacy issues that drones bring. We can also set aside the issue of the severe cost having drones..
If we put all that aside what about the risk of malfunction? Drones are fairly new in technology and are unmanned. Someone in some other city is flying it, but I don't feel that is as good as someone actually being there flying it. What if it loses radio signal and crashes into a school or your house?
I look around and see what people are willing to accept for "safety". I don't feel any safer than I did 15 years ago. In fact, I feel we are making more and more people angry and this is harming our safety. What will be next; tanks driving down...

The Polls close in Wisconsin
Now the polls have closed in Wisconsin's recall vote. Everyone is in uproar over the elimination of collective bargaining rights with most state employees. This caused a huge uproar with union workers, and I have to say it's not due to the rights being lost. The upset from democrats and the union are due to the fact that union dues will crash.
Initially the concept of unions appealed to people and gave some rights to people to try to request more money and benefits for their work. Though it is a free country it should be completely voluntary to join a union and not have to pay dues just because you work for a company. The appalling push back about a manufacturing plant being moved to South Carolina shows how insane these union have...
Votes so Consistent
I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but I am watching the votes come in tonight. The vote % seem almost identical for the past few states. I don't get how that is possible. Every state is not going to vote almost 80% for one person consistently across all states.
