I would be interested in knowing what Jonathan is doing these days as he was one of the first to point out who is behind the curtain.

Besides being extremely dangerous these ruling Banking Cartel families are mentally ill and have been for several hundred years. They have enforced the severity of their family illness by then intermarrying. In the case of one family, first cousins marrying 26 times since 1800. It is impossible to say how many individuals in these families are now mentally defective, bleeders, autistic or mentally deformed in one way or another, etc. and each day these individuals, full of obvious and hidden genetic defects, (and many as "crazy as loons") are being transported in limousines to the highest positions and offices of power in the world.

I recall a few years ago when “The Money Masters”, How international bankers gained control of America video came out prior to the financial markets blowing up. It was lightly discussed then but seems to be drawing more attention these days. Lot of history and very long but well worth watching. The video can be seen here: video.google.com

When something terrible happens on a massive scale it is always important to “tune” in on those who predicted the event prior to it happening. For the life of me I don’t know why Ross Perot doesn’t show up on TV with a smile and say, “I told you so”. My guess Ron Paul will get that honor soon enough.

President Barack Obama said the health-care legislation he anticipates signing this year will have an immediate impact by expanding coverage to the uninsured and requiring insurers to accept customers regardless of pre- existing conditions.

In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama said the measure making its way through Congress would build a new foundation for economic growth by reining in health-care costs and making affordable health care more available.

While many of the changes won’t take place for several years, “there are dozens of protections and benefits that will take effect this year,” he said.

“Once I sign health insurance reform into law, doctors and patients will have more control over their health-care decisions, and insurance company bureaucrats will have less,” Obama said. “These changes represent the most sweeping reforms and toughest restrictions on insurance companies that this country has ever known.”

Talks between the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate are at a preliminary stage as lawmakers negotiate on the differences between health-care legislation approved by each chamber last year. Financing the expansion of insurance coverage to more than 90 percent of Americans looms as a major unresolved issue.

“After a long and thorough debate, we are on the verge of passing health insurance reform,” Obama said.

Jobs Issue

Obama also addressed yesterday’s report from the Labor Department that the U.S. unexpectedly shed 85,000 jobs in December. About half of the 7.2 million job losses over the past two years have occurred since Obama took office in January 2009. The unemployment rate remained at 10 percent last month.

“Until we see a trend of good, sustainable job creation, we will be relentless in our efforts to put America back to work,” Obama said.

Obama yesterday highlighted the awarding of $2.3 billion in tax credits intended to boost clean-energy jobs. He also said the government must “explore every avenue” to encourage job growth. The tax credits were part of stimulus program Congress enacted last February, and they will go to 183 companies, including PPG Industries Inc. and Itron Inc., for clean-energy manufacturing projects in 43 states. The projects getting the tax credit are forecast to create more than 17,000 jobs.
