Inside Job: documentary on the global financial crisis
Inside Job movie review and trailer
Superb documentary on the global financial crisis of 2008
This Thanksgiving, Americans can be thankful they do not live in a country whose larcenous financial sector has impoverished millions while its feckless government shovels more money at the culprits and its bought-off academics cheer.
As Charles Ferguson's superb documentary "Inside Job" makes clear, Americans can be thankful if they've still got their health, because their financial well-being has been stolen.
Now in limited release in New Jersey after openings in New York and Philadelphia, "Inside Job" is the year's most assured bit of film-making, also the most useful. Although essentially a movie of talking heads and lots of charts, "Inside Job" never looks or sounds dull.

MOVIE REVIEW
Why the Food Safety Bill isn't really safe
Why the Food Safety Bill isn't really safe
By Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah)
The Food Safety Bill (S. 510) started out with the best intentions, to make our food supply safer. Unfortunately, even with the best intentions many in Congress will use any excuse to grow government and spend recklessly.
As a conservative on the Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee I initially supported the Food Safety bill. At the time, I was clear that the bill needed significant improvements and if it did not continue to improve that I would stop supporting the bill. I hoped to use my cosponsorship to steer this legislation away from the big government expansion that I feared it would become. I made it clear that if there was a huge price tag to taxpayers that I would not support the bill.
That’s regrettably what happened. After the bill was approved by the committee, the legislation did not improve. It expands the federal workforce by the thousands. The federal workforce should be capped, which is why I introduced legislation this year to do exactly that. In addition this bill has a price tag of $1.5 billion, we simply cannot afford that. We need to balance the budget not continue to spend. Because of these concerns, I have voted against this legislation not once, but twice.
see the complete comments by Senator Orrin Hatch at the Glenn Beck website
I will continue to oppose this bill. We need to return to the principles that make our country great: a limited federal government and balancing our federal budget by cutting spending.

Trent Lott and Tom Daschle having a profitable $$$ lunch?
Trent Lott / Tom Daschle having a profitable $$$ lunch?
where they really lobbying for their own pocketbook? whose payroll are they on now ?
Anybody tracking the money ?
Washington (CNN) -- When Republican Trent Lott sat down for lunch with Democrat Tom Daschle on Monday afternoon, mere hours before voters shellacked President Obama and his party in the midterm elections, it was more than just two former Senate gladiators getting together to reminisce about old times
Despite their many differences over the years, Lott and Daschle managed to find a way to work together during the bruising days of the Clinton and Bush administrations, where everything from impeachment to Iraq caused deep divisions between the parties.
"He and I are whispering back and forth," Lott told me of his conversations with Daschle.
The two still keep in close touch and are now working back channels to try to get Obama and incoming House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to see that a divided government does not have to mean that the government comes to a screeching halt.
"Tom and I went through this situation on both sides," said Lott, who was the Senate majority leader while Daschle was minority leader. "We've been through three different iterations of circumstances where we found a way to get things done."

how much does Michael Chertoff make for promoting RapidScan body scanners?
Glenn Beck highlighted the fact that Michael Chertoff has a financial stake that sells these scanners. Beck also mentioned that George Soros had a interest in the company that sells these scanners Rapiscan Systems, Inc.
This may have been one of the topics that George discussed in his 4 White House for Obama visits.
Chertoff Argues for Whole Body Scanners
Former HSA Secretary Michael Chertoff has jumped into the fray over whether to use full body scanners with an op-ed in the Washington Post. He urges that Congress fund "a large-scale deployment of next-generation systems."
Most airport security checkpoints use metal detectors. Al-Qaeda has shown that it knows how to avoid detection by using an explosive device that contains little or no metal, such as PETN, or pentaerythritol tetranitrate, used by Abdulmutallab and "shoe bomber" Richard Reid in 2001.
It will only be a matter of time before terrorists figured out how to avoid detection with these machines as well. One reason: The Government's publicly available list of which machines have been purchased for airport use. Each one carriesthe name of the company that makes them, and the company's website has all the particulars about the machine, including in some cases, what a particular machine doesn't screen.
Alternatively, by searching various scanners' web pages, which anyone can find using google, they will see which ones are Government certified. For example, the Rapiscan WaveScan 200, advertises that "the WaveScan 200 millimeter wave sensors do not image anatomical details, thus protecting privacy."
How much of a leap is it from that advisement to figuring out hiding explosives in one's crotch will not be detected?
I can't tell if TSA is using the Rapidscan 200 yet, but it has been using the RapidScan 1000, whose web page contains this notice:
Certifications
The United States Department of Homeland Security has certified the Rapiscan Secure 1000 as an approved product for homeland security. Please visit www.safetyact.gov for more information.
If you go to Safetyact.gov, you'll find all sorts of helpful information, such as this list of approved HSA airport equipment:
The following "Approved Product List for Homeland Security" is provided pursuant to 6 U.S.C. § 442(d)(3) (the Support Anti-terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies Act of 2002, or “SAFETY Act”) and 6 C.F.R. § 25.7(j) (2004) (Regulations to Support Anti-terrorism by Fostering Effective Technologies):
You can then peruse the list and find, for example,
Rapiscan Systems, Inc.: Secure 1000
December 18, 2006 – Rapiscan Systems, Inc., provides the Secure 1000®, a non-intrusive personnel screening system designed to detect both metallic and nonmetallic objects (such as ceramic, plastic, metallic, and organic matter, including liquid and solid explosives) concealed under a person's clothing. This Designation and Certification will expire on December 31, 2011.

Glenn Beck breaks the biggest corruption story of the century
Scandal: Obama, Gore, Goldman, Joyce Foundation CCX partners to fleece USA
April 10 2010
Glenn Beck breaks the biggest corruption story of the century yesterday and it doesn’t appear on a Front Page anywhere. Beck points the way to the 15 Trillion dollar scam that has some amazing players.
First Glenn makes and astute point: If Goldman is really the bad guy, why are these people still on the job? The Goldman suit is a put up job!
• William C. Dudley, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; was a partner and managing director at Goldman
• Gary Gensler, chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission; spent 18 years at Goldman
• Mark Patterson, chief of staff to Tim Geithner; former Goldman lobbyist
• Philip Murphy; nominated for ambassador to Germany; former Goldman executive
• Diana Farrell; deputy director of the National Economic Council; formerly with Goldman
• Emil Michael; White House fellow; former investment banker with Goldman
Glenn tells us that a watchdog has steered him to the collusion between Barrack Obama, George Soros, Al Gore, Goldman Sachs, Franklin Raines (super crooked Fannie Mae head), CCX, and Generation Investment Management (GIM-London based co-founded by AL Gore).
Know the crooks and their roles:
George Soros, Joyce Foundation and connection to CCX.
What is CCX, the Chicago Climate Exchange, projected to gross 10 Trillion a year is Cap-N-Tax passes. Obama played a pivotal role in the formation of the CCX. (Click here for expose)
Barrack Hussein Obama, Board Member of the Joyce Foundation, funded the formation of the CCX. (Valerie Jarrett is still on the board, Obama’s top adviser.) Obama sat on board and funneled money to Ayer’s brother (wild huh, just a guy in his neighborhood) and to form the CCX.
AL Gore--Goldman Sachs-- GIM: Hold on to your britches, London-based Generation Investment Management sees the Trillion and they purchased a huge stake in Chicago Climate Exchange (fifth largest shareholder.) The founder of GIM is none other than former Vice President Al Gore along with Goldman people. For example other founders are David Blood (former Goldman executive), Mark Ferguson (Goldman) and Peter Harris (Goldman) to name a few. “
Franklin Raines, mega crooked banker and bust Fannie Mae head, uses Fannie Mae (taxpayers money) to buy the technology to measure and manage carbon. The patent was award the day after Obama and Dems won the election.

A Face in the Crowd
Glenn Beck has been spending a lot of time talking up his expose on George Soros which began today and it did not disappoint. Nothing that begins with the dramatic lines “83 years ago, George Soros was born. Little did the world know, then, that economy’s would collapse, currencies would become worthless, elections would be stolen, regimes would fall, and one billionaire would find himself, coincidentally, at the center of it all” ever could. But, at the end of today’s long Soros biography, Beck revealed an interesting anecdote: Soros once sent him a present, a copy of A Face in the Crowd on DVD.
Editorial Reviews / Amazon.com essential video
More timely now, perhaps, than when it was first released in 1957, Elia Kazan's overheated political melodrama explores the dangerous manipulative power of pop culture. It exposes the underside of Capra-corn populism, as exemplified in the optimistic fable of grassroots punditry Meet John Doe.
In Kazan's account, scripted by Budd Schulberg, the common-man pontificator (Andy Griffith) is no Gary Cooper-style aw-shucks paragon. Promoted to national fame as a folksy TV idol by radio producer Patricia Neal, Griffith's Larry "Lonesome" Rhodes turns out to be a megalomaniacal rat bastard. The film turns apocalyptic as Rhodes exploits his power to sway the masses, helping to elect a reactionary presidential candidate. The parodies of television commercials and opinion polling were cutting edge in their day (Face in the Crowd was the Network of the Eisenhower era), and there are some startling, near-documentary sequences shot on location in Arkansas. An extraordinary supporting cast (led by Walter Matthau and Lee Remick) helps keep the energy level high, even when the satire turns shrill and unpersuasive in the final reel. There's an interesting parallel in Tim Robbins's snide pseudodocumentary Bob Roberts: both these pictures have almost as much contempt for the lemmings in the audience as for the manipulative monsters who herd them over the cliff. by David Chute

Glenn has that and more, including very troubling video from The Blaze of a giddy Soros explaining how he does what he does, on radio today

Lou Dobbs is back on FOX business network for 2011
Lou Dobbs is back now on FOX business network
Nov. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Lou Dobbs, the former CNN anchor who quit last November after 27 years with the cable-news network, is joining News Corp.’s Fox Business Network to start his own show.
Dobbs, 65, will develop and host a daily show that will start in the first quarter, New York-based Fox Business said today in a statement. He will also provide analysis and commentary across the network’s programs, as part of the multiyear agreement.
At CNN, Dobbs drew controversy for his coverage of illegal immigrants and questioning of President Barack Obama’s citizenship. His ratings declined after the 2008 presidential race and he announced his departure from the Time Warner Inc. 24-hour news channel almost exactly a year ago. In its last years, “Lou Dobbs Tonight” had focused less on business and more on the economic impact of trade, immigration and the loss of middle-class jobs in the U.S.
When he quit, Dobbs vowed to work to change the way these issues had become defined by “partisanship and ideology rather than by rigorous, empirical thought and forthright analysis and discussion.”

The Shadow Party: info on shadow goverment as mentioned by Glenn Beck
America is under attack. Its institutions and values are under daily assault. But the principal culprits are not foreign terrorists. They are influential and powerful Americans secretly stirring up disunion and disloyalty in the shifting shadows of the Democratic Party. New York Times best-selling authors David Horowitz and Richard Poe (both former radicals) weave together riveting history, investigative reporting, and cutting political analysis to help expose and explain:
The Shadow Party's plan to rewrite the US Constitution.
How the Shadow Party overthrows foreign governments--and why it may attempt to use the same methods here.
The vast network of private think tanks, foundations, unions, stealth PACs, and other front groups through which the Shadow Party operates in America.
The network's voluminous contributions to the Democrats, which totaled more than $300 million in the 2004 elections, and its growing influence over the party's message and policy.
The politicians on both sides of the aisle who have exchanged political favors with George Soros and his "government-in-the-wings."
The Shadow Party's efforts to conceal its radical agenda behind the "moderate" pose of Hillary Clinton and other public figures.
The radical network's plan to seize power.

just sitting watching the Glenn Beck show today on Fox tv, where the theme was George Soros as a puppet master trying to control and sharp the global economy as he wants it.
I am shocked that one person like George Soros has this much ambition to control and influence the world for his own personal profits.
One ideal that stood out was George Soros is now targeting the United States, this is scary to me.
Glenn Beck does his usual background info on the subject , offering sources for all the materials used.
It was another excellent and enlightening show. Well worth watching.

MSNBC host admits to being 'a socialist'
Keith Olbermann got suspended without pay for donating to political candidates, but there has been no action taken so far against host Lawrence O'Donnell for admitting on Morning Joe that he is indeed a socialist. Glenn called this over a year ago - that the masks would start coming off the radical progressives who have been operating in the shadows for decades. Glenn plays the audio of an MSNBC host confirming what most already believed.

God And Man At Yale: 50Th Anniversary Edition
This book was referenced by the Fox news show tracing the conservative
political movement from the depression to present day politics.
This seminal work of one of the most courageous conservative thinkers of the 20th and 21st centuries laid the groundwork on which numerous other media voices built. He describes how it all started when he was an undergraduate at Yale University from 1946-1950. He writes from his conscious. Buckley is precise in describing how he felt traditional American values were being ignored, undermined, and distorted by academics. He makes his case by citing specific classes, instructors, and textbooks. In the revised edition he brings readers up to date on how critics and the public responded when the book originally came out. Buckley earned the right to be the quintessential role model for conservatives because of his courage and gift of clearly communicating his argument in a logical manner. There are no ad hominem fallacies here or in any of his writings. He confronts issues head on. He even discusses his motive for writing the book by saying it is tied to his love for his alma mater and the country in general. By that he means his desire is for constructive change. It is in pointing out the errors that he hopes to achieve the positive resolutions he seeks. Buckley has remained a voice worthy of an audience in the marketplace of ideas for decades. This is the book that launched him and it is worth reading at any point in time.
In 1951, a twenty-five-year old Yale graduate published his first book, which exposed the extraordinarily irresponsible educational attitude that prevailed at his alma mater. This book rocked the academic world and catapulted its young author, William F. Buckley Jr., into the public spotlight.

Backlash against Fed's $600 billion QE2 builds
Backlash against Fed's $600 billion QE2 builds
GLENN: But because of quantitative easing, and let me give you the warning yesterday, from the Chinese, the unbridled printing of dollars is the biggest risk to the global economy. This is according to an advisor of the Chinese Central Bank. He said: Quote as long as the world issues no restraint in global currencies such as the dollar and this is not easy, then the occurrence of the crisis is inevitable as quite a few westerners lament." So what does that mean? Most people don't understand when you read these headlines on the drudge report today. Oil above 87 -- I'm sorry, oil at $87. Backlash builds against Feds pumping. Dollar at risk of crashing, triggering inflation. Brazil ready to retaliate for U.S. move in currency war. Chinese warns Fed move is a huge risk. Germany concerned. Most people don't understand what any of that means. I'm going to be cryptic here, because I cannot tell you the names of the people involved, because I don't have the permission of all of the people involved to tell you this story. But you know me. You know me well enough to know that I'm not talking to -- I'm not talking to fringe players. I am talking to people -- when I have told you things about TARP, when I've told you things, it is because I have enough contacts with people who are not peripheral players but players that have been in these rooms as things have happened. Yesterday I had a conversation with somebody. And I had a conversation with somebody who two weeks ago wouldn't have believed me. And this is a -- help me out here, guys -- this is an individual who.
STU: Very well connected.
GLENN: Very well connected.
PAT: Knows people in financial circles at upper levels.
GLENN: And has a history that you would know, that you would recognize. And is in the know. Is in the game with the highest levels. She came to me and she said to me yesterday that, after the TV show -- and I have been teasing this chart that is being built for tonight's television show, that shows in 15 days, not the next 15 days, in any given 15-day period.
PAT: After some major event.
GLENN: Major event, a 9/11 happens, a big event or China. And this is the event we use. China just says we're not going to buy any more of America's debt. Now, it could be -- the event could be the Congress and the republicans keep to their promise and do not raise the debt ceiling. That's a big enough event to trigger this. From the day that event happens, it will take about 13 days for the world to change as you know it. And when I say that, I mean everything changes. Global catastrophe. Global panic. What I told you three years ago, four years ago was coming, three years ago when it started to happen and they were talking about TARP, was that three years ago? I think it was. Wasn't it?
STU: Two, right?
GLENN: Two years? When that started to happen, I told you we're headed for a mountain and we're going to crash into the mountain. You've got to prepare. What they're trying to do with TARP was take us down into the trees. Well, they have prepared. Again, the question is, have you? What happens? China says we're not going to buy any more bonds. The world freaks. And in the few days, the Fed comes in and they say: We're going to raise rates. We're going to raise the yield on bonds. So you can make a lot of money. Everybody buy bonds. What happens? Europe raises them faster than we do, because as soon as people lose confidence in our bonds, the rest of the world says: Wait a minute, wait a minute, buy us. So they start competing. Pour your money here. Everybody is competing. Gold is competing. Food is competing. Everything is competing for all these dollars that are now no longer going to go into bonds. And so the world gets spooked. And it lasts about a week. Then things just start coming apart at the seams. And Asia starts to crash. The Asian markets crash. The European markets crash. The Dow crashes. I mean, we're talking about serious crashes.
PAT: And this person said that a week ago they wouldn't have believed any of this scenario, right?
GLENN: Listen to my monologue. Listen to me explain it over the last couple of days what quantitative easing means and what it means to your food prices, and then laying out on the board, which I have in the last couple of days, what's coming tonight, I'm going to show you this tonight, I'll show you this 15-day scenario. She said she was in a room and she said there were three speakers there. And these were -- how would you describe these three speakers?
PAT: Heavy weights. Financial heavy weights.
GLENN: Heavy weights. Governmental and outside financial heavy weights.
STU: Non-partisan. Not a partisan group.
GLENN: Yes, people who have been -- people who are viewed as keels, wouldn't you say?
STU: If I knew what you meant by "keels," then yes.
GLENN: An even steady keel of a ship.
STU: Even keel?
GLENN: Yes.
STU: That's what that means. I just knew even keel meant even. I went with the even part of keel.
GLENN: Something that keeps the ship upright. Somebody that's not one side or the other. They're just right down the center.
PAT: Even keeled people.
STU: People paid a lot of money to make sure they're making measured decisions.
GLENN: Very measured. First one gets up and they're having this little breakfast and the first one gets up and says, hey, I want to tell you what I think is coming. She says -- we're all sitting around going: You gotta be kidding me. She said the next person gets up and says -- it's actually a little worse than what he said. She said -- she said now the real guy, who is like rock solid, nobody, everybody in the room was expecting him to get up and say: These guys, I disagree with. Instead he got up and he said: It may not happen that way, but there's a good shot that this stuff happens. And people have to be prepared.
STU: You might expect me to disagree with these two.
GLENN: Yes. But I can't disagree with them. I think there's a chance that this stuff happens. And people must be prepared.
PAT: And this guy said it wasn't inevitable, right? But there's a good shot.
GLENN: I'm not saying it's inevitable either. I'm just saying that these things are growing, growing concerns. What people said about they would never -- they testified a year ago that they would never buy their own debt and they testified under oath. They're doing it in historic records.
PAT: Because these things are possible, this is why you're shining the light on it, not to fear monger, but to get people -- I've always disagreed with the world renowned FDR statement: We have nothing to fear but fear itself. What does that even mean? We have nothing to fear but being unprepared. If you are prepared, you need not fear anything, because you've got something -- you've got a fall-back position.
GLENN: You don't have to worry about -- you don't have to worry about your retirement if you prepared for your retirement.
PAT: Right. What's scary is retiring and you've got nothing. You're looking around thinking I've got Social Security, 900 a month?
GLENN: If you've put nest eggs away and you're not in great debt, because you prepared for the possibility of unemployment, you don't fear unemployment.
PAT: So how do you get prepared in something like this? You get food.
GLENN: You buy food.
PAT: If nothing happens, good.
GLENN: The thing we do know is coming is inflation on food. You'll have deflation in some things and inflation wherever there's a hard commodity. Oil. So that means your tires are going to be more expensive. That means anything made with an oil-based product.
STU: Which is everything.
GLENN: Which is everything, that is going to be more expensive. Gold is going to be more expensive. But wheat, flour, sugar. Sugar has gone up like 58 percent in three months, did you know that.
STU: No. How much?
GLENN: Like 58 percent.
STU: Has it really?
GLENN: But the price of sugar hasn't. The commodity sugar has. So what's happened here is what you're paying for on the shelf has not been passed on to you yet. And all of these producers, they know -- they've been holding on and they're like, okay, I can't -- I'm General Mills, I'm hoping this is going to pass. We'll eat it for a while because, for instance, if we pass on this then it's going to hurt the restaurants and everything else. And the restaurants are going to -- they're going to have to pass it on to their customers. Everybody's been holding on as much as they can because people start to hold onto their money tighter and that makes things worse. General Mills just came out and said, it's, what, a five percent increase in cereal. This is before the quantitative easing. Five percent increase in cereal. Sugar is now going up I think 10, 12, or 18 percent. All of these things are really starting to climb in price. The best case scenario is it's going to be more expensive to buy food and gasoline and oil-based products in the coming months. Tonight I will show you catastrophic collapse and what it means. In 15 days from an event, a 9/11, let's be crazy and let's say somebody sends packages with bombs all around the world and planes fall out of the sky.
STU: That would never happen, come on.
GLENN: I know. A catastrophic event, and how it leads in 15 days to a new world order. This woman said -- she came up to me yesterday and said: A week ago, a week ago I wouldn't have believed you. But I sat in this meeting and these guys said that's what's coming. They think it's a possibility that's really coming. We all sat there with our mouths open. Now, no one will tell you these things because they believe that, oh, well, it's crazy and the people are too stupid, they'll panic. No you won't. You panic when you don't have information. You panic when you can't see what's around the corner.
PAT: You panic when it's too late to do anything about it.
GLENN: Exactly right.
PAT: That's why this is so important.
GLENN: It's not too late to do anything. Because you -- and I've said this to you now for a long time. You must be a leader. You must be a leader, because there will be people that will pull us apart. We must stay together.
