The Last Honest Politician


Dennis Kucinich - an Island in a Sea of Corruption


In America, we choose our leaders from among those who have climbed the political ladder by pleasing those who control the purse strings. By the time an individual has reached the level of having been nominated by his party for public office, he/she has been bought and paid for. The recent healthcare reform fiasco is a perfect example. "Blue Dog" Democrats unabashedly lent their support to the insurance and pharmaceutical industries at the expense of the American people. Do they care? Not a chance.


One man has stood out the past several years as a man of principle and integrity. Small in stature, he does not present the image of a politician, but Dennis Kucinich stands head and shoulders above the rest for integrity. Listen to his recent one-minute speech before Congress. If only Americans had the intelligence and integrity of this man.





For contrast, here is a prime example of the arrogance of those who accept millions of dollars from industries whose corrupt practices they perpetuate with their bought-and-paid-for votes. Witness a drunk Senator Max Baucus addressing Congress on healthcare:

Vitamin D a Breakthrough in Cancer Prevention






Serious scientific study has been conducted on Vitamin D with startling results.  It turns out not to be a vitamin at all, but a hormone absolutely essential to health and immunity to disease. And cancer prevention is only the tip of the iceberg.   Vitamin D has a major positive impact onreducing breast and colon cancer. 

You won't hear about this from the news media (because no one's buying ads) and you won't
hear about it from the government (because 
no one is bribing them.)  Watch the video:

Strong Evidence of Reincarnation




For centuries, man has argued about the existence of reincarnation. Early references to reincarnation in the New Testament were deleted in the 4th century by Emperor Constantine when Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire. Did the emperor feel that the concept of reincarnation was threatening to the stability of the empire? Citizens who believed that they would have another chance to live might be less obedient and law abiding than those who believed in a single Judgment Day for all?


In the 6th century, in the year 553 A. D., the 2nd Council of Constantinople officially declared reincarnation a heresy and the doctrine of reincarnation was officially banished by the Christian Church.


There is actually a considerable amount of evidence for reincarnation remaining in the Bible People are unaware that there are definite references in the New Testament that unequivocally imply reincarnation exists. You can find quite a few references supporting the idea that after people die they will come back to this Earth if they are not ready to move on permanently to the heavenly realms.


Here is a present day case that gives strong support to the existence of reincarnation. Watch this incredible video of Bruce and Andrea Leininger on the incredible true story of their son, James, as told in the NY Times bestselling book SOUL SURVIVOR: The Reincarnation of a World War II Fighter Pilot.

The Great Orange Juice Scam

I love orange juice. I've been drinking it daily most of my life. But is it "fresh" and "pure"? I hope so because I drink "Simply Orange".

One of the great scams of the industrial food cartel is the so-called "fresh" orange juice sold in supermarkets. This one particularly galls me because for years when I was dirt poor and had very few food choices, I thought I was doing a healthy thing by buying "fresh" orange juice.

Alissa Hamiliton has written a new book on the subject called "Squeezed: What You Don't Know About Orange Juice."

Some reality checks:

1. There is more Vitamin C in a single orange than in a full glass of industrial orange juice

2. Truly fresh orange juice only last a few days. It if last for weeks (or months), it's an industrial product.

3. Until the Florida orange growers launched a campaign in the early 20th century to deal with their surplus crop, the only people who drank orange juice were Floridians who had a tree in their backyard. There is nothing particularly healthy or natural about drinking orange juice - and the industrial product is a total waste of money.

America: a Prison Nation

Some people are concerned about a network of internment camps and private prisons that appears to being built at great expense around the nation. What's more shocking is that right now the US has more people behind bars than any country on earth including Russia and China. It's as American as apple pie.

In fact, one of of every four human beings on earth who is imprisoned is in a US facility. Look it up. That's a horror show taking place right now and it barely merits comment.

Amazingly, a vast network of legalized slave labor based on imprisoning blacks for petty and made up crimes existed in broad daylight in the South up until 1945, the reality of which is only just now coming to light.

What is up with UFO's?

More than half of American citizens believe UFO's are real and that there are visitors from outer space. Recent activity has done nothing to dispel that belief. Recent footage of a pyramid hovering over the Red Square in Moscow has gone viral. The footage was shot from a passing car. While some say it is a UFO, skeptics dismiss the ufo theory and say that if the images were for real, the public would have reported sightings to police - who are making no comment. Another clip filmed during daylight shows a fuzzy grey object on the skyline near Red Square.

This is hot on the heels of the strange spiral blue lights in Norway which authorities claim was simpply a missile test gone wrong. We had previously reported on a strange cloud formation above Russia.





LET'S EXAMINE THE FACTS:

In 1973, Rod Serling gave a sound summary of the evidence supporting UFO interaction with Earth. This 10-minute video is very interesting and informative and gives a reasoned approach to the subject:





WHAT DO NASA ASTRONAUTS SAY ABOUT UFO's?

We have gathered three videos from three former astronauts who are well known and well respected -- Buzz Aldrin, Gordon Cooper, and Dr. Edgar Mitchell. Here is what they have to say about UFO's:

BUZZ ALDRIN

Buzz Aldrin talks about the 'UFO' which the Apollo 11 crew saw on their way to the moon.




DR. EDGAR MITCHELL

Lee Patrick Hanks of New World Integrations and the new Tara-13 Network interviews Edgar Mitchell, Ph.D. (Apollo 14 astronaut and founder of the Institute of Noetic Science) at the 2009 X-Conference in Washington, D.C. Dr. Edgar Mitchell confirms that ETs are in fact visiting Earth.






GORDON COOPER

Al Franken Shuts Up Joe Lieberman

Former comedian Senator Al Franken of Minnesota made Democrats across America smile when he shut down shut down a speech by the ever-disgusting Senator Joe Lieberman on the Senate floor Thursday, refusing to give the Connecticut independent extra time to finish a statement on health care reform.  Lieberman has been instrumental in forcing Democrats to back down on both the public option and an expansion of Medicare.  Senator John McCain voiced his support for Lieberman which begs the question, "Why are these two relics still around?"

"Produce the Note" a Headache for Lenders



Recently we have run articles on the Great American Mortgage Scam and how lenders have used very questionable and perhaps illegal techniques to implement their securitization scam and cheat borrowers. The articles can be found in the right hand column under archives.

The “Produce the Note” strategy is giving hope to a Pennsylvania homeowner facing foreclosure. Mark Strohecker, of Ellwood City, Pennsylvania, was successful in getting a judge to stop the foreclosure of his home, after filing a “produce the note” request with the court.

The 42-year-old former firefighter and father of two faced the Sheriff’s Sale of his home on March 11th. Two weeks earlier, he printed the document template for a “Produce the Note” request from the CWN website, filled it out, and filed it in Lawrence County Court. At a hearing the day before the scheduled Sheriff’s Sale, Honorable Judge J. Craig Cox, granted Strohecker a motion to stay the Sheriff’s Sale.

Strohecker says he was so overwhelmed by the Judge’s decision he broke down in tears.

...and here is another:

A State Supreme Court Judge in Brooklyn, New York is on a mission to force mortgage companies to stop foreclosing on homeowners unfairly. Judge Arthur Schack has become a friend to the little guy. Instead of rubber stamping and waving foreclosure cases through his court, he is standing up to mortgage companies who try to foreclose on homeowners without proper standing or proof.

He’s not a pushover, but is diligent about enforcing the law. As a result, he’s tossed out 46 of the 102 foreclosure motions that have come before him in the last two years.

The banks and lenders are in trouble. Keep up the good work, folks.

Bernanke Fights Federal Reserve Audit



As a pertinent follow-up to our series of articles exposing the Great American Mortgage Scam, the head of the US central bank said Saturday he was "concerned" by some congressional proposals aimed at regulating the US financial system that infringe upon the powers of the Federal Reserve. SURPRISE! SURPRISE!

"I am concerned, however, that a number of the legislative proposals being circulated would significantly reduce the capacity of the Federal Reserve to perform its core functions," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke wrote in an op-ed piece in The Washington Post.

He said some proposals considered by the US Senate as part of attempts to strengthen US government regulation of the financial sector would strip the Fed of all its bank regulatory powers.

He also noted that a House committee had recently voted to repeal a 1978 provision that was intended to protect monetary policy from short-term political influence.

Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX), who has sought to audit the nation's largest bank for nearly 27 years, does not believe Bernanke's fears are substantiated.

"
There is no reason why the world can't know, eventually, what the Fed is doing," he said recently.

His legislation, House Resolution 1207, cleared a key congressional panel on Nov. 19 by a vote of 43 to 26.

"
[It] would require the Government Accountability Office to audit the central bank's interest rate policy, agreements with foreign governments, foreign central banks and the International Monetary Fund," according to MarketWatch. "It also would permit audits of a roughly $800 billion Fed mortgage-backed securities purchase program, which could grow to $1.25 trillion, Paul said."

How You Have Been Conned on Your Mortgage



The articles by The Candid Blogger about The Great American Mortgage Scam and the Follow-up to the Great American Mortgage Scam have brought a huge amount of traffic to this site and, judging from many of the responses, has generated some confusion among our visitors. We are taking this opportunity to provide a simple explanation.


How Mortgages are SUPPOSED to work – this is what SHOULD happen:

You sign a promissory note and the bank gives you the “money”.
You then use that “money” to buy the house.
The bank still fractionalizes the promissory note and turns the $100,000 into $900,000.
The bank then pays the taxes on the $900,000.

That is the understanding that is common to the American public about the real estate purchase process. One minor problem:

WRONG!


Pay attention, Mr. and Mrs. America. You are about to receive a lesson in how the banks con America. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION!


How a mortgage REALLY works

When a mortgage is created, your signature on the promissory note creates the funds. They did not exist before then.

The lender does not transfer “money” – they simply make bookkeeping entries.

The promissory note creates an Accounts Receivable with your name on it and that’s what you pay month after month after month.

The promissory note also creates an Accounts Payable with your name on it. But you never see that account. It’s the account that owes you money.

Did the lender give you the money when you signed the promissory note? Of course not. They “withheld” it from you.

The bank then fractionalizes the promissory note.
Example: A promissory note for $100,000 becomes $1,000,000 when the bank fractionalizes it.

The bank also sells the promissory note. This repays the Accounts Receivable.

The Accounts Payable is not abandoned funds. The bank is suppose to send the borrower an IRS 1099A, Notice of Abandonment, but they don’t.

When you make a monthly payment to the bank, you are actually paying the TAX the bank owes the IRS for the money YOU created, PLUS interest.


Here is one more bit of information of which you were probably not aware:

Foreclosures DO NOT hurt banks in any way. They never risked anything for the creation of the “money” and they never lend any “money”. The “money” is created from your signature.

When you sign a mortgage note it comes under UCC Article 3. After securitization, it comes under Article 8. Under US law securitization is illegal because it is fraudulent. Instruments such as loans, credit cards and receivables, are securitized. Enron was involved in securitization and someone brought charges against them. But almost all large corporations are doing it as usual business, including the banking system and the government.

Under the constitution, the government was not given authority to create money. It is a power reserved by the people. Article I, section 10 restricted the states from making gold coins. So the corporate government has to rely on the deception of people to create money. So the way money is created is to have people sign an IOU, or promissory note. It is not a debt instrument to the one who created it; it is actually an asset. The creator can pass it on for someone else to use. It is negotiable unless it includes terms and conditions as part of a contract. The property belongs to the creator, and the holder is merely using it and any proceeds that come from it should be restored to the creator.

That is the power we have if we realize we have the authority to do this. The intent is to understand the regulations and to see how they are trying to deceive us to believe we are the debtor and the slave and they are the creditor at all times. This is not legally true.



In these recent articles, we have informed you of:

1. how banks create money out of thin air on your signature alone;

2. how they make 10X that amount from just your signature;

3. how they fail to pay you money to which you are legally entitled;

4. how they obtain title to your property illegally by failing to follow through on the Reconveyance required by your Deed of Trust;

5. and how they con you into paying THEIR taxes owed to the IRS in this transaction.


What you do with this information is up to you.


This presentation explores how money is created and issued. Money used to be backed by Gold and Silver but today's money is backed by debt - your promise to pay back a loan and the government's promise to back up the currency.

Follow-up on The Great American Mortgage Scam




After yesterday's article on The Great American Mortgage Scam, the Candid Blogger received the following question:

Who would pay your lender 3.24 million (10X) for a 324,000 Note? Nobody would do that.

$342,000 mortgage @ 6% interest for 30 years: Payment = $1,942.54 monthly or $1,942.54 X 12 = $23,310 annually.

30 X $23,310 = $699,300 total payment to holder of the note over 30 years.

You actually believe that someone would give the lender 3.24 million and only get back $700,000 over 30 years?

They would get face value of the note plus some fraction of the $375,000 in interest to be gained over 30 years.

Anyone heard of Common Sense?

Answer:

The Fed has two roles - one to be the issuer of Fed reserve notes, and the other to serve as a cartel organization for the 20 member banks. Federal reserve notes stand for nothing in particular, and to vary their number, the Fed buys or sells bonds to and from the member banks.

Suppose the Fed buys bonds from Chase in the amount of $1000, and Chase previously had the minimum reserve on hand - say it's 10% just for easy numbers. Now Chase can make additional loans from the $1000 cash that has now been added to their reserves. How much can they loan out? $900.

But whoever borrows that money will now deposit it in an account somewhere. For simplicity, say they deposit it at B of A. Now B of A has another $900 on hand, and they loan out $810, which is deposited in B of A, which then loans out $720... This is how we get the 10 times multiplier. That is, the 10 times includes all that the commercial banks create. At the end of this process, $10,000 is created from an original deposit of $1000. It doesn't matter which bank since they are all members of a cartel -- family. Pretty clever, huh?

(By the way, exactly the same thing happens if the original $1000 is in the form of a deposit from my back pocket rather than in the form of the Fed creating reserves, except that now the structure is less stable. The same thing does not happen if it is a deposit from earnings, since then it has to be matched by a withdrawal from the employer's account.)

Now do you see also why the Fed contributes only a small amount to the money creation, mathematically speaking? For every $1000 they create, the banks can then create $10,000.

So, let's go over it again. On a $100K note, they lend out $90K, which is deposited in a bank who can then lend out $81K, which is deposited and then $72K is lent, etc., until 10x the face amount of the original note has been created.

And they can do it all from just your signature on a Note. Now you can see why lenders were so anxious to give loans to any creature that could walk upright and sign their name.

The Great American Mortgage Scam

Protect Your Home

As foreclosures reach record numbers and the poor are blamed for the sub-prime mortgage fiasco, the real culprit, the mortgage companies and banks escape. Thousands of Americans have been scammed on their mortgages by a very clever securitization technique employed by lenders. Have you been scammed? Here's an easy way to find out:

The easiest way to determine if your "note" was converted to a negotiable instrument by your Lender and sold or traded is to examine your Note and your Deed of Trust. First, your note will have a date approximately at least one week BEFORE you actually sign it.

In the old days, your Note would say, "For value received..."

If you have a Note that the Lender wanted to convert to a negotiable instrument and make 10X the amount of the Note for themselves, your note will start out:

"In return for a loan that I have received, I promise to pay ..."

Of course you have not received an electronic transfer to your account, nor a cashier's check, nor any form of payment at all. The LENDER has completed step one of the fraud. They got you to say you already have a loan when you do not.

Step 2 is to get you to say that you own the home free and clear and can deed it to anyone you want. Of course you don't (or do you?)

Check out Page 3 of your Deed of Trust. Under Borrowers Covenants, if it says:
"The borrower covenants that he/she/they are "lawfully seized of the estate."

There it is. You have told the Lender:

1) That you have already received a loan, and
2) That you own your home free and clear of encumbrances.

Based on that, the Lender slaps an allonge on the back and deposits it in their own bank, which considers it just like a cashiers check or pay order and this fractional banking technique will allow the Lender to create 10X the amount of your note. In a common scam transaction, a 1st mortgage of $324K, once sold or traded, earned the Lender $3.24 million, less $400K to pay the seller and commission. Nice payday!

The Lender has been PAID IN FULL for just your signature on the Note.

Of course they ignore the RELEASE section of the Deed of Trust which says that once PAID IN FULL they must then reconvey the property to the Borrower and release the lien. Instead it is "reconveyed" to the Lender who has already been paid in full (10X). He then sits back and gets paid again over 30 years by YOU, the generous fool that gave him the property in the first place.

NICE SCAM.

A Simple Solution for Fixing the Economy





This is from an article in the St. Petersburg Times newspaper on Sunday.

The Business Section asked readers for ideas on: "How Would You Fix the Economy?"

I think this guy nailed it! Please find below my suggestion for fixing America's economy.

Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan.

The Patriotic Retirement Plan:

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations:

1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings.
Unemployment fixed.

2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million cars ordered.
Auto Industry fixed.

3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage.
Housing Crisis fixed.

It can't get any easier than that!

P.S. If more money is needed, have all members in Congress and their constituents pay their taxes...

While you're at it, make congress retire on Social Security and Medicare. I'll bet both programs would be fixed pronto!

House Passes Healthcare Reform Bill




PARTY OF NO SUFFERS CRUSHING DEFEAT


The House floor erupted in one of the loudest cheers the chamber has heard in years when Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), an hour before midnight, cast the 218th and deciding vote on landmark health care reform.

There were still six minutes and fifty-two seconds on the clock and the chair made a move to gavel the vote closed.
Democrats waived their opposition, keeping the vote open.

Almost every eye in the chamber darted to the far end of the GOP side, where the last possibility for a bipartisan bill sat wedged between Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) and Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska), both of whom were leaning on him, both literally and figuratively.

The White House, two sources told HuffPost, had been working hard to win the vote of Rep. Joseph Cao (R-La.), a freshman in a strongly Democratic district. The pro-life Cao's vote came into play when an amendment from Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) passed overwhelmingly, greatly restricting reproductive rights.

After several minutes, Cao cast a yes vote from his seat, making the bill bipartisan. Reps. Jim Oberstar (D-Minn.) and Mike Honda (D-Calif.) waded into the Republican side of the aisle to get to Cao, rub his shoulders and slap him on the back.
Cantor stormed out as the Democrats applauded their defector.

The Party of NO Really Means It




Republicans have made it a crusade to block any healthcare reform put forth by the Democrats in order to make President Obama fail. They have said it and acted in this manner over and over again. Now, the Party of "NO", led by Emperor of Evil, John "Bonehead" Boehner have put forth their own healthcare reform package. Problem is it doesn't reform much of anything. There is no provision to deal with "pre-existing" conditions, and it has now been revealed that the Republican plan fails to cover 95% of the uninsured. 95%!

The Republican bill, which has no chance of passage, would extend insurance coverage to about 3 million people by 2019, and would leave about 52 million people uninsured, the budget office said, meaning the proportion of non-elderly Americans with coverage would remain about the same as now, at roughly 83%.

The budget office has said that the Democrats’ health care proposal would extend coverage to 36 million people, meaning that 96% of legal residents would have health benefits. The Democrats’ bill would cost $1.1 trillion, with the costs more than covered by revenues from new taxes or cuts in government spending, particularly on Medicare.

Judge Carter Dismisses Orly Taitz Case




Just as expected, Judge David Carter has dismissed the case of Barnett, Keyes, et al v. Obama. Here are just a few of his comments:

"Plaintiffs’ arguments through Taitz have generally failed to aid the Court. Instead, Plaintiffs’ counsel has favored rhetoric seeking to arouse the emotions and prejudices of her followers rather than the language of a lawyer seeking to present arguments through cogent legal reasoning...

"This Court exercised extreme patience when Taitz endangered this case being heard at all...

"Taitz also continually refused to comply with court rules and procedure.

"Taitz encouraged her supporters to contact this Court, both via letters and phone calls. It was improper and unethical for her as an attorney to encourage her supporters to attempt to influence this Court's decision.

"Additionally, the Court has received several sworn affidavits that Taitz asked potential witnesses that she planned to call before this Court to perjure themselves. This Court is deeply concerned that Taitz may have suborned perjury through witnesses she intended to bring before this Court."

"Plaintiffs have encouraged the Court to ignore these mandates of the Constitution; to disregard the limits on its power put in place by the Constitution ... Plaintiffs have attacked the judiciary, including every prior court that has dismissed their claim, as unpatriotic and even treasonous for refusing to grant their requests and for adhering to the terms of the Constitution which set forth its jurisdiction. Respecting the constitutional role and jurisdiction of this Court is not unpatriotic. Quite the contrary, this Court considers commitment to that constitutional role to be the ultimate reflection of patriotism."

Public Option Annie Serenades Anti-Healthcare Convention




AHIP is the powerful insurance lobby that spends 5 million dollars a week trying to kill health care reform. Billionaires for Wealthcare is a grassroots network looking to stop them - with song.

• AHIP and other insurance and HMO interests spend nearly $5 million per week undermining real health care reform, including a public option.

• AHIP has resorted to out-right lying and scare tactics to block health care reform. They sent letters that lie to seniors about what health care reform means for Medicare, and they issued a report on the costs of health care reform legislation that is so misleading even the reports embarrassed authors distanced themselves from the way AHIP used their work.

• Every year, 45,000 people die because they cant get access to the health care they need. Yet AHIP continues to stand in the way of health care reform that would provide coverage to millions of Americans because the industry is more concerned with protecting profits than saving lives.

FOX NEWS Vendetta Against Obama Exposed


ANYTHING BUT FAIR AND BALANCED

FOX NEWS would like everyone to believe that they are the only media outlet whose "news" broadcasts are Fair and Balanced. Rather than submit a written argument to disprove this claim, we find it much more easy to present video evidence to you of a long-standing vendetta that this so-called news station has conducted against President Barack Obama. These attacks are a clear indication of a planned and vicious campaign to discredit him and to tear down his administration.

With "news people" like Hannity, Beck and O'Reilly, it is ludicrous for anyone to claim that this media outlet is a news agency. FOX manufactures and creates news, then reports on it. They are a bad joke on America.

The Orangutan and the Hound

After the negativity surrounding Orly Taitz and the birthers, I thought it appropriate to lighten the mood with this post. Enjoy:

The Orly Taitz Circus Continues

Orly Taitz in Wonderland with her Staff


Now that Orly Taitz has ignored Judge Clay Land's Order for a $20,000 sanction, Orly Taitz is taking her appeal to the 11th Circuit in Atlanta. Taitz represents soldiers who are fighting deployment on the basis of their belief that the Commander-in-chief is not eligible to serve.

Judge Clay Land has called her filings frivolous and sanctioned her twice. The most recent sanction was $20,000.

In her court filing, Taitz accused Judge Land of “
completely ignoring ninety percent of the argument and facts, making extremely rude and demeaning remarks, showing bias; taken together, appear to be designed to silence her and, intimidate her.“

Now, the case gets even more intriguing. Ms. Taitz was planning to call a man named Lucas Smith to testify on behalf of her client in a case she filed in Orange County this is awaiting a decision by Judge David Carter on the motion of the Defendants to Dismiss the Case. Mr. Smith, however, paints a picture of Ms. Taitz not paying attention to details, sleeping with her disbarred attorney legal assistant, Charles Lincoln III, and attempting to get both Mr. Smith and another witness to make up stories and lie to the court under oath. Here is the complete
Declaration of Lucas Daniel Smith. You can click to download it. It was just filed with the Court.

Among the charges her witness levels at Ms. Taitz is that she and her husband are independently wealthy, but that she will not pay her staff or help, yet buys expensive meals with donations from her supporters. Ms. Taitz also reportedly asked Mr. Lucas to lie to the court and say that Mr. Obama had tried to have him killed upon exiting a recent meeting at the Court.

Another interesting tidbit is that Mr. Smith says that Ms. Taitz told him that she had obtained the earlier phony Kenyan Birth Certificate on Obama from the Mossad. Mr. Smith also reports that Ms. Taitz is unable to comprehend details and that her attention span is like that of a small child...perhaps 15 minutes.

It gets curiouser and curiouser...
