Meltdown of US Banks is due to Bu$hco

American Dream Downpayment Act of 2003

Expanding Homeownership Opportunities for All Americans

On December 16, 2003, President Bush signed into law the American Dream Downpayment Act of 2003, which will help approximately 40,000 families a year with their down payment and closing costs, and further strengthen America’s housing market. This legislation complements the President’s aggressive housing agenda announced in 2002 to dismantle the barriers to homeownership.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Census Bureau released data showing that new home construction in November reached its highest level in nearly 20 years. Overall housing starts rose 4.5 percent from October and rose 17.6 percent from November of 2002. Single-family housing starts totaled 1,695,000 (SAAR) in November, up 3.3 percent from October and up 20.8 percent from November 2002 – a record for single-family starts.

The strong housing market is beneficial for communities across the Nation. America’s families have been refinancing due to the lowest mortgage rates in 45 years, saving hundreds of dollars a month on their home payments. The U.S. homeownership rate was 68.4% in the third quarter—its highest level ever.

Justice Dept. Accused of Blocking Gonzales Probe




Gone but not forgotten, Gonzo (the ex AG of George Duhhhbya Bu$h)is himself protected by Bu$hco's present AG who wants to postpone the whole thing until Bu$h can escape. You know...kind of like the time he tried to escape from the Chinese press but found the doors locked...G:

Office of Special Counsel chief says his investigation into alleged politicization of the attorney general's agency has been repeatedly 'impeded.'

29 Jan 2008

The government agency that enforces one of the principal laws aimed at keeping politics out of the civil service has accused the Justice Department of blocking its investigation into alleged politicizing of the department under former Atty. Gen. Alberto R. Gonzales.

Scott J. Bloch, head of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, wrote Atty. Gen. Michael B. Mukasey last week that the department had repeatedly "impeded" his investigation by refusing to share documents and provide answers to written questions, according to a copy of Bloch's letter obtained by the Los Angeles Times.

The Justice Department wants Bloch to wait until its own internal investigation is completed. A department official signaled recently that the investigation is examining the possibility of criminal charges.

But that, the regulator wrote, could take until the last months of the Bush administration, "when there is little hope of any corrective measures or discipline possible" being taken by his office.

$$$$$$$$$$$Maxed Out$$$$$$$$$$$


Big Wishes, Easy Credit, Tough Times

By STEPHEN HOLDEN
NY Times March 9, 2007

“Them that’s got shall get/Them that’s not shall lose.” That observation from Billie Holiday’s “God Bless the Child” sums up the cynical view of “Maxed Out,” James D. Scurlock’s documentary investigation of debt in America. This scattershot exposé of usurious banking practices examines why the most vulnerable segment of society is victimized by the lending industry and finds a simple answer: It’s obscenely profitable.

NATIONAL IDENTITY CARD BILL PASSES SENATE WITHOUT DEBATE
By A. Kronstadt

[July 2007]

One of the basic freedom issues that has united both left and right in the struggle against expanding governmental authority has been that of the National ID Card. Many European nations, particularly those with authoritarian histories such as Germany and the ex-communist bloc countries, have long required each citizen to carry some standardized national identification document that must be presented to the police on demand. We are all familiar with the motion picture stereotype of the Nazi or Soviet officer walking up to people and saying "your papers, please," but in the United States, people have traditionally regarded this as something we can all do without. We Americans definitely do not like the idea of needing something like a driver's license just to walk on the street, nor do we want cops asking us for a passport when we are traveling around our own country. Indeed, we are told that the Republicans and conservatives are the ones most vehemently opposed to this ultimate symbol of Big Government.

Happy New Year from Bu$h

WIKIPEDIA

George W. Bush

George W. Bush (aka GW aka worthless moron) is the worlds most doofy Tyrant. Inaugurated as President in 2001, he's every American's worst nightmare. He wasn't born mean and unscrupulous, he worked hard at it. And succeeded. As for stupidity, well, some things are inborn.

His top priorities are pleasing Satan and looking good in front of the rich and the insane (not necessarily in that order). Of absolutely no concern to him is the personal well-being of his citizens or the rest of the world! Bush is politically challenged but he stays current on all the latest political trends, even though he rarely understands them.

Crazy statement include saying the French don't have a word for entrepreneur, and that war is dangerous.


these pictures offer further truth of evolution

Exciting New RFID Tooth Implant (:



Belgians implant RFID chip in tooth

Jan Libbenga / The Register | March 20 2006

Belgian scientists at the Catholic University of Leuven have embedded an RFID chip into a tooth to show how detailed personal information can be stored.

Patrick Thevissen and his team adapted a tag which vets already implant into animals. If you lose your chipped dog, vets can retrieve the pet's home address from the device.

In the case of humans, however, the intention of the ID tag is to allow forensic teams to retrieve a person's name, nationality, date of birth and gender allowing identification after, say, a natural disaster.

Experiments show that the tags withstand temperature changes of up to 450 °C - so they're pretty well vindaloo-proof - but repeated expansion and contraction of the tooth is still a problem, requiring the use of an insulating layer.

However, Dr Thevissen believes teeth are - as the strongest and longest-lived parts of the body - the best place to store information.

The Collapse of Building 7 by Arthur Scheuerman Jan. 22 07

WTC’s Building 7 was a 47-story office building completed in 1987 by Silverstein Properties on land owned by the Port Authority. It was built according to PA-NY-NJ codes developed for tenant alterations in the tower buildings. Building 7 was not hit by any planes but had some damage from parts of Tower 1 impacting the south wall. Because of the damage to the building and the failure of the water supply, after talking to the owner, the Fire Department decided to evacuate the building and not to attempt to control the fires but to let them burn out. Since it was a “fire resistive” building, there would have been every expectation that the fires would burn out without any local or global collapse. However, given that the towers had collapsed and that there had been a serious interior collapse of Building 5, there was concern, and the collapse area around the building was cleared. The building suffered global collapse from fire after several hours of uncontrolled burning. There were no known injuries or fatalities in the collapse.

Now, If this article looks familiar you have to look no further than the comments on
SuzieQ's blog
, where the above article was copied and pasted in it's entirety.

The NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY is a non-regulatory federal agency within the U.S. Department of Commerce. NIST's mission is to promote U.S. innovation and industrial competitiveness by advancing measurement science, standards, and technology in ways that enhance economic security and improve our quality of life. This is the agency that Bu$hco has set up to do the World Trade Center Investigation, which they have been working on for three years with no final report forthcoming to date.

IT WAS THE FIRE, CAUSED THE TWIN TOWER COLLAPSE

On March 12, 2002, in "Civil Engineer News" this analysis of the cause of the collapse of the WTC Towers & Possible lessons learned to improve high-rise building life safety was done by Arthur Scheuerman, Battalion Chief FDNY (Retired), Former Deputy Chief Instructor Nassau County Fire Training Academy and high-rise Fire Safety Director NYC.

I look forward to more comments in the future from you Arthur. There are so many things to discuss and so little time.

This association of professional people is a breath of fresh air for those of us that have been combing the innertubes for certified truth about the destruction of the World Trade Center. This is what is needed to bring about a real investigation by an outside source. As it stands there are far too many unanswered questions to believe the explanations of the 911 commision.

~VIDEO~

We are a non-partisan association of Architects, Engineers, and affiliates , who are dedicated to exposing the falsehoods and to revealing truths about the “collapses” of the WTC high-rises on 9/11/01.

We call upon Congress for a truly independent investigation with subpoena power. We believe that there may be sufficient evidence to conclude that the World Trade Center buildings #1 (North Tower), #2 (South Tower), and #7 (the 47 story high-rise across Vessey St.) were destroyed not by jet impact and fires but by controlled demolition with explosives.

We believe that this website, as well as the other referenced sites, contains the information necessary to demonstrate to all with an open mind that this is the case, and that such an investigation is warranted and overdue. We believe that the available relevant evidence casts grave doubt on the government's official story of these “collapses”.

Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth are encouraged to take an active role by reporting the results of their research on 9/11 by means of lectures, articles, and methods of disseminating the truth about the 9/11 WTC building “collapses”.

Richard Gage, AIA is the founding member of ae911Truth.org. He has been a practicing Architect for 20 years and has worked on most types of building construction including numerous fire-proofed steel-framed buildings. He is employed with a San Francisco Bay Area architecture firm and has most recently performed Construction Administration services for a new $120M High School campus including a $10M steel-framed Gymnasium. Currently he is working on the Design Development for a very large mixed use urban project with 1.2M sq.ft. of retail and 320K sq.ft. of high-rise office space — altogether about 1,200 tons of steel framing.

A Star dies in Brightest Supernova

Scientists identify brightest supernova


WASHINGTON - Scientists say they have detected the brightest stellar explosion ever recorded, a new breed of supernova that may well be repeated sooner than they previously thought.

The violent explosion was observed by ground-based telescopes as well as NASA's orbiting Chandra X-Ray Observatory in a galaxy far from our own Milky Way. But the observations hint that an erupting star in our own galaxy, called Eta Carinae, could be close to the same kind of blast, astronomers say in a paper to be published in The Astrophysical Journal.

For years, scientists have been looking for a blast this big, but never found one until last September. After months of analysis, the research team discussed their findings at a news conference Monday here at NASA Headquarters.

Growing list of Ex CIA disagree on War

Will General Petraeus be thrown under the bus?


General Patraeus last night on the Charlie Rose Show said that "it is time to take the mirrows off of the bus". Well, he's the one in the drivers seat, and he seems to be saying that whatever is behind him doesn't matter and it's peddle to the metal into the surge. It has been said that he is a brilliant general, but this seems like a pretty cavalier statement to me.
