IG Report “Cliff Notes” Prior Memos “Cliff Notes” IG Report – Summary Steele’s election reporting on September 19, 2016 played a central and essential role in the FBI’s and Department’s decision to seek the FISA order.

Page WAS misused by the FBI
After the IG disclosure of the edited email stating that Carter Page was “not a source”, I have found myself very interested in this alteration. I have read very little that details this besides “it looks very bad” or “obvious bias”. But like much of the reporting, high on opinion and low on facts. SoContinue reading “Page WAS misused by the FBI”

Tea Party Atlanta Biggest and Best
I was there, I was proud and I was surprised. I had hoped for 5,000 people and a ratio 9 to 1 (90% normal people and 10% nut jobs). I was surprised on both counts. The counts coming in are north of 10,000 and may be as high as 20,000 people. I could not tellContinue reading “Tea Party Atlanta Biggest and Best”
Appetite for our debt is waning.
The small stock market rally was stopped cold today due to a upward movement in the sale of five year notes. For those that have been warning us about these days, this article is the beginning of the proof points on deficit spending. The market saw this news and dropped almost 250 points from 1:00pmContinue reading “Appetite for our debt is waning.”
Death on the slopes! But something is missed.
I have heard all the tragic stories surrounding Natasha Richardson’s death but one thing is missing from every story I found. As would be expected, the left is all about taking away freedom, demanding helmet laws and ignoring personal responsibility and risk. They will compare this freak accident to other head traumas and add itContinue reading “Death on the slopes! But something is missed.”
What could you do with $9,000 dollars a year for three years?
+$1.15T being injected into the Financial market. Washington has now put in $9T to “fix” the economy. This is 89,000+ per household in the US. I am trying to find the statistics but I would think we could have just paid up the mortgages on everyone at risk for far less. But like many ofContinue reading “What could you do with $9,000 dollars a year for three years?”
"Barack Obama is the smartest President"?
Have you heard it before? We have all heard how “dumb” George Bush is/was. I think it is about time to reveal that there is a big difference between book-smart and street-smart; Obama being the former and in no way the latter. The media being much of the former as well, has little to noContinue reading “"Barack Obama is the smartest President"?”
Bad Bank.. What happened to it?
I continue to be amazed that the “Bad Bank” concept that was the impetus for the 700billion dollar bailout has yet to be used. I looked for Pros and Cons of this concept. The dominant con seems to be paying too much for the assets or “nationalization”. But what I found even less was aContinue reading “Bad Bank.. What happened to it?”
