  • bitter right wing losers lol

    RIP true conservatives in america

  • Dont worry Muslims hes one of you he will watch your back and turn his on America. This guy with his speeches are outrageous and is all about trying to please everyone. Stop trying to please the Muslim world they will still hate America and still attack our country no matter what you do.

  • You don't know anything about Muslims, so shut the hell up. You're embarrassing the other Americans.

  • he should have said "terrorists" not "extremists".

  • Yea much better spin to make the people fearful.

    Same technique is used in financial circles.

    "Quantitative Easing" is way better than "Counterfeiting Money".

    Thus, the use of fiat money is more justifiable in financing a depression than in financing a war.

    Carroll Quigley

  • That was his single greatest speech

  • the best / most influential foreign relations speech in modern american history....it is too soon and we are to close to it to realize how great this speech really was....it is like standing 3 inches from the mona lisa and saying....."i don't see why it's so great "....it will take about 5 or more years for us to fully appreciate this speech

  • @ jshooper I agree I stayed up all night to watch this stream at 3 till 5 in the morning.

  • Good editing. Thanks for the highlights.

  • If you would have told me ten years ago a black man called Barack Hussein Obama would be giving a speech apologizing for the US's torture & military policies... I wouldn't have believed you. This has been a pretty fast 10 years

  • BigPurple121 --- I wouldn't have believed that even five years ago.

  • It's false, and you know it.

  • I only reply to comments that promote peace and progressive dialogue towards peace. If you're commenting to rant your infantile emotions and Anti-American, Anti-solution, Anti-Resolution, Anti-Obama ideals go find a mirror to talk to and tell yourself how right you are

  • Good spin now where's the truth.

    How does a country repay a 60 Trillion dollar national debt and social entitlement bill when the country that holds that debt doesn't produce any manufactured goods except weapons of war ? At least you know how they will attempt to repay the bill.

  • I also think we should confront the violent extremists in our country, the RADICAL christian conservatives.

  • Good Start but maybe take care of the war criminals and counterfeiters first. Keep doing oil coils on Liberty's head see how much commie world works.

    Its land of the Eagle, not of the Lemmings.

  • I've never been more proud to be an American than after this speech.

  • Dead men tell no tales : you guys are toast you just don't know it yet.

    True value of gold, take all gold found for the last 6,000 years divide by all "paper money" on the globe at this present time.

    In Zimbabwe you couldn't do a 1 oz gold transaction because there wasn't enough PAPER in the country to cover the transaction. What's the difference between a US Fed Note and a Zimbabwe dollar. Both made out of paper, however the Zimbabwe dollar isn't world reserve. Value is based on a deception.

  • Comment removed

  • his best speech ever bar none

  • I agree with the President's speech it really is time for us to rise above all the stereotypes and racism and instead promote a peaceful existence on this planet that we all share. Of course this will not happen over night but this could be a nice start.

  • How about starting by putting GWya in jail for war crimes.

    Lip service doesn't cut it, Obama is the Pied Piper leading the lemmings over the cliff.

  • poker face

  • fuck yeah that was great, if thats not change...

  • Obama dont know shit, thanks Harvard.

    Muslim communities that developed the order of algebra; our magnetic compass and tools of navigation; our mastery of pens and printing; our understanding of how disease spreads and how it can be healed.

    Ah, not exactly.

    Compass - China 2nd Century

    Printing - China 6th Century

    Disease - Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in 1676, altho Aviccena knew something was going on.

    Algebra - They invented the name. The math predates them

  • He's great. There is hope.

  • well said

  • I second that , well said !

  • Second what :

    - 30 million homes are in foreclosure

    - Corruption is running rampant

    - Orca is doing propaganda

    - Two Useless Endless wars are going on

    - The World's largest Auto manufacturer just went bankrupt and the Taxpayer's are paying for the transfer of GM manufacturing in China.

    Hope, no its called reality the globe's toast.

  • He's great (at conning the US population with deception)

    There is hope, that we go into a 3rd world war and the world's population won't have to suffer though mass starvation.

  • Wow! What a speech! For the first time in years, there is hope for the Middle East.

  • Im an American.

    I dont give a fuck if the life that is lost is American or foreign.

    The value of human life isnt dictated by what flag it hails under.

    I think b-rock understands that and is truly seeking to affect the people in this world that are in need of that help the most.

  • fuck religion.

  • That's totally your choice when you live in a free society.

    Its the reason for the separation of Church and State, so you don't get some jerk off invading countries based on a religious belief like Gway did. Notice Bush instead of being shot for Treason is doing speeches for cash with Obama not doing anything.

  • You listening Iran. My president is applying a double standard on your people :/

    fucker.

  • What was the reign of Elizabeth I considered the golden age of England.

    I pray to God that I shall not live one hour after I have thought of using deception.

    Elizabeth I

    Obama is the snake oil salesman telling the sheep every-things ok while he puts the final stake into Liberty's Heart.

  • I think that's something of a mischaracterization. Had he not acted on any of his campaign promises I'd be inclined to agree but he has, for better or for worse, been a many mostly of his word.

    He isn't telling anyone things will be ok, btw. He's telling people thing suck and they will not get better on their own. That's hardly optimistic.

  • Bailing out a failed company (GM) is not being a man of his word.

    If he was a man of his word Gwya would be in jail for murdering 1 million Iraqi citizens (Genocide).

    He would also be truthful that the United Sates isn't going to exist in its present form. Its going to turn into a 3rd world dung heap. Similar to Zimbabwe but way more Sci Fi.

  • 1) He didn't campaign on bailing it out nor did he campaign against it but faced with a economic meltdown he acted out of necesity (and perhaps desperation).

    2) You don't seem to understand the definition of genocide but I'd like to see some of the former administration hung for Iraq. legally there may not be a case for it. and he never said he would try them.

    3) Nobody knows that for sure. There are key differences between zimb and US and most economists agree it won't happen.

  • Where's the investigation in:

    1) Missing 2.3 trillion in Pentagon transactions from 9 years ago

    2) Why Bill Clintons' impeachment hearings cost 30 million, 911 investigation cost 11 million

    3) What good is there in supporting a failed company with worthless capital (paper US Fed notes aren't going to cut it)

    4) Name the KEY differences, what's different between Zimbabwe and the USA, the size of the country what else ?

    Zimbabwe is on the gold standard you don't pan for gold you don't eat.

  • 1) I wish I could tell you. I'd also like to know. But again, how is this about Obama being less than forthcoming? Did he ever say he would investigate this?

    2) Read above.

    3) If money was worthless it wouldn't be used... don't conflate real concern over inflation with a worthless currency. Again, read what economists are saying.

    4) Size of economy, net assets, key position in world markets, high technology, educated people, world class instutitions, the USD's position as a trade currency...

  • 1) Missing 2.3 trillion in missing transactions, its ridiculous how can you run a country if the books are cooked ?

    2) Economists ? Running the globe based on fiat currency is insane. (That should have been pointed out in 1971)

    3) The idiots just created 12 trillion, The fed won't even disclose who they're lending money to. If gold was even $265 I wouldn't worry about it, the fact its approaching $1000 is insane. Confidence has been lost in the US Fed note, gold price proves that sad reality.

  • 1) eh, were running in circles. I'm agreeing with you. What I'm saying what does this have to do with Obama being a conman? If he had promised to do something about it but then didn't, OK... but he hasn't, has he? In essence you're complaining that he didn't live up to a promise that he didn't make.

  • You don't have to make a promise to follow the rule of law.

    The fact that Obama isn't investigating any of the war crimes of GWya has me looking at him sideways. Then there's the bailout of GM, all contracts for the dealerships have been ignored, absolutely unacceptable.

    The globe's turning into a B grade movie that never ends.

    How about bringing the troops home ? Its costing 1 trillion dollars a year to run a world empire. Just like fiat money, empires always end, tragically .

  • Beware of he who speaks in absolutes. Look, i'm no fan of GWB but he and his cronies aren't stupid, they made it difficult enough to go after them that it might not be feasible to do so or if it is the cost makes it a phyrric victory. Maybe he's trying to get them sideways with the whole torture thing? IDK, we'll see.

    As for the rule of law, you're right. But he has made strides to correct the previous administration's errors. That might be the most we can expect anyone to do.

  • Absolutes I just want the "the rule of law", not too much to ask is it.

    Obama doesn't even mention the root of all this chaos is coming from the central bank. (Federal Reserve) Which means he's a puppet not a leader of a free country.

    Gwya is history , how about at least balancing the books .

    The country is imploding and he's out on 1/4 million a night dates with the wife. Absolute insanity.

  • Absolutes because you tend to speak in them. Nothing to do with the rule of law. And no, it's not much to ask. But what they did, while I believe it to be dishonest, wasn't against the law unless someone can prove they lied to the congress. Until then it's just bad governance.

    As for the books, yeah, I want them to be balanced but at the same time I don't think he can sit by and do nothing. He has to try to balance things out by spending. Without it you risk causing more trouble than you solve.

  • How can you prove anything if the whole system is corrupt.

    - TARP - lost track of billions

    - The Fed - Created 12 trillion dollars (don't know what happened to it).

    - The Treasury Secretary cheated on his taxes and he has two sub-prime mortgages on his house. (That's Insane)

    - Industry in the US has been systematically destroyed

    (how about protecting the US market and getting people back to work)

    No common sense going on, no accountability , its a prelude to currency collapse. Jaw dropping

  • 2) Fiat currency isn't a perfect system but neither is the gold standard. With the gold standard currency is hard to come by, it's attached to a rare metal and skews things in favor of Gold rich countries. No system is perfect.

    But it doesn't matter, what I'm saying fiat currency is still worth something because people accept it as payment. That's what worth means in this case... that people are willing to accept it as money.

    So GM isn't exactly being bailed out with worhless paper.

  • 3) No, they can't create that money. They must borrow it. The Fed doesn't have to for good reasons primarily having to do with market perceptions on a company borrowing money. Even a sound company will regularly borrow money. Having to go to the Fed may give off the impression that it's in bad shape. So it and the fed hide this information.

    Gold, incidentally, is at a high price because Gold is always purchased during recessions. It's a sound investment. High prices don't prove anything.

  • So why doesn't the US government create their own fiat money instead of borrowing it from a 3rd party ?  Like good old AB did when he had to finance another war.

    Gold didn't change price very much from 1776 to 1971.

    Gold is money (base of value) The US Fed note isn't backed by anything, so it can go to zero. What's wrong with a competing currency, at least if it was backed by silver or gold it won't go to 0. The Fed is just a big rip off of poor folk.

    (I'm included in the poor folk label).

  • The money is basically backed by foreign currency. If they printed money then world markets would react by dumping T-bills making the USD worth nothing.

    Btw gold saw a huge jump in the early 70's. Prior to that it had been stable because Gold had been used to back currency so its value wasn't market based.

    But remember, Gold is only worth what people will pay for it like any good's value it is not intrinsic. it Is essence a fiat value as well. Nothing prevents it from going to 0 except agreement

  • "The money is backed by foreign currency." That's correct , so if the US Fed note goes to 0 wouldn't all foreign currency based on a world reserve currency go to 0 as well ?

    Remember, the French turned in their paper for gold under the Bretton Woods agreement because they knew the US gov. was counterfeiting money. Nixon ended the gold backing of foreign exchange. Another gold backed currency should have been agreed upon. Have you see gold go to 0 in the last 6,000 years, paper sure has.

  • yes, but that would require the USD going to 0. That's virtually impossible unless the government starts printing much much much more money than is currenctly in the system and simulatenously all currencies stop pegging to the dollar, switch to another currency (like the GBP) and all world markets agree the US economy is worthless... as bad as things are the US economy is still a beast, the dollar is still used and the government isn't printing money. it's issuing debt obligations.

  • the point is that fiat currencies aren't based on nothing. Stock prices aren't based on nothing... they're based on the assume worth of the company. Speculation distorts this value but that's typically what investors look for. The same applies to currency although the mechanisms are a little less obvious and sometimes more complex (companies fail regularly. Countries, especially world powers, rarely if never do so there's more inherent risk in stock trades).

  • The government stopped publishing M3 over 2 years ago.

    The Federal Reserve is buying their own debt (That's ridiculous). What product is the US exporting ? 30 million homes have been foreclosed and about 600,000 jobs are being lost per month. China and Brazil have already started trading with their own currencies. Mugabe tried similar banana republic strategies, the folks in Zimbabwe are on a gold standard now, you don't pan for gold you don't eat.

  • You're serious?

    Who wrote your history books, Al-Queda?

    MORON!

  • and who wrote the Al-Queda book? oh thats right the Bush administration.

    read your shit everyone, 'Al-Queda' is a fear tool.

  • Wow, what a tangent!

    My point is that there are MANY "history books" in the mid-East, especially Palestine, than when exposed to educated people reads like fiction.

    Have you ever read "Alternate History" its real fun; Harry Turtledove is great at it.

    Unfortunately, its starting to make its way into our schools and taught as fact... like it already is in Palestinian schools.

  • Who wrote your History Books ?

    The US Federal Government

    Who wrote the US constitution ? Brilliant people that gave their blood, wealth so their people could prosper to the end of time.

    Is a course in Freedom (Study of the US constitution) offered in the public school system ?

    Mandatory or Elective ?

    The US government is out to due you people harm and all you can think about is the camel jockeys. That's why the US is toast.

  • True, but I stick to original reports as much as possible and, you're right, actual civics AND economics should be mandatory in high school.

    You're also right that D'ohBama and his lefty friends are out to recreate/destroy American liberty but that doesn't mean we should ignore evil elsewhere in the world either.

  • How about starting on the home front so you can set an example of cool country, instead of promoting evil around the world.

    Vietnam - now Afghanistan and Iraq what good about that crap ? You guys never learn so your country is going to implode.

  • Israel wasn't around during WW1 or WW2 you moron...

  • So how come it came into being ?

    What did the Palestinians do to deserve their land to be taken away from them.

    Orthodox Jews (Real Jews) protest the formation of Israel because they believe in the the Torah. The modern state of Israel is forbidden. Orthodox Jews are less than 1% of the Jewish population they believe in G-d's word.

    Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

    Mohandas Gandhi

  • Who funded the woman's movement - Rockerfeller family

    Who funded the rise of Hitler - Jp Morgan

    Who funded the Nazis - Prescott Bush (Bush's Grandfather)

    Who killed JFK - Federal Reserve JFK introduced hard currency

    Who 's going to loose their country and standard of living, the folks that inhabit the nation called United States of America. The US dollar is worthless, government is trying to prop up a 700 trillion dollar finance problem.

  • Conspiracy theories and bigotry.

  • No conspiracy theories are BS with zero evidence backing them up.

    Funny that everything you just said has nothing to do with that you originally said. Which means you can't defend that position so I win.

    And coolest country is a opinion, not a fact. And me being brain dead? Ignoring the fact you can't even spell fucking and I'm about to get my degree in IT networking.

    You probably live your mom's basement playing WoW.

  • No conspiracy theory are BS with zeor evidence (Truth).

    1776 Gold $20

    1933 Gold $20

    1971 Gold $35

    2009 Gold $1000 and climbing

    There's the proof that the federal reserve (Central Bank) is destroying your currency. Paper is unconstitutional, (Bill of Credit). There's the proof, now where's the conspiracy.

    Gold is Money, its a base of value currency is based on gold. Wake up or die.

  • "No conspiracy theory are BS with zeor evidence (Truth)."

    I see you failed English class.

    And wait, was the value of gold the same for over a 130 years? Right..

    Also you never mention how much gold is worth that amount. And I highly doubt those numbers, assuming you didn't just pull them from your ass, are counting for inflation.

    And you are forgetting just how many uses gold has now, so good luck having a modern country use gold for money LOL.

  • Sorry made a typo

    The value of gold "was" pegged at $20 (US dollars) until the US government ended the gold window in 1971.

    Its in the US constitution, have you ever read it, gold and silver to be used as money, no bills of credit.  That way the government can't counterfeit the money supply to zero value. Like the government is doing right now.

  • And paper money is unconstitutional, since when?

    What you want is simply not feasible. And wake up to what up to what? Your stupidity? I already know that. And die, from what again?

  • Is my labor/time on the planet worth gold or paper ?

    All fiat money (faith in government, a promise to pay) ends without warning for the masses. Show me one fiat based money that has survived (never gone to 0). Show me one time in the last 6,000 gold and silver have gone to zero value. Last time US fiat money went to zero was "The continental dollar" It was chaos after that, the founding fathers made gold and silver law of the land so it wouldn't happen again. Its going to happen again...

  • " And paper money is unconstitutional, since when" ?

    Since the US constitution was signed

    Article 1 Section 10

    : make anything but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payments of debts: (no bills of credit or fiat currency)

    Have you ever studied the US constitution, by your inquiry I guess not. Obama has he swears an oath to uphold it.

    So what is Obama a traitor like Nixon, Bush, just go down the list. You good people have been deceived since 1913.

  • So is it unconstitutional, but largely ignore and for good reasons. It's just not feasible to use gold and silver for money anymore.

    And only conspiracy nuts talk about back room deals and organizations with secret agendas destroying anything.

  • "Ignore and for good reasons" - such as ?

    You don't circulate gold and silver , I agree too cumbersome.

    However if your government is following the law of the land, you should be able to turn in your "paper" for physical gold and silver.

    Gold price is in direct relationship to monetary inflation.

    You want a gold standard so government spending doesn't get out of hand , like it is right now. Pretty basic stuff, right now the income you earn is useful but as savings in the future its worthless.

  • boots920 :Obama hasn't even PROVEN that he's a natural born citizen

    UNCONSTITUTIONAL Wow is that stupid ! What , are you so important that you want him to come to your house and prove it to you ? I can hardly believe that people are still saying that kind of shit .

  • I'm not important but following basic law is.

    Where's the LONG version of Obama's birth certificate ?

    How come Orca is promoting a leader who doesn't even qualify to be president. (Propaganda)

    All propaganda has to be popular and has to accommodate itself to the comprehension of the least intelligent of those whom it seeks to reach.

    Adolf Hitler

  • Yeah , quoting adolph hitler will get you far .

  • A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.

    Martin Luther King, Jr.

  • Oh jesus !

  • In my opinion, Jesus is God's attempt to reach man. But while I believe Jesus is the way to God, it makes no sense to hate people who disagree.

    Jerry B. Jenkins

  • Ahhh that's why boots920 is so retarded, he's a fundie.

    Now I get it, explains everything.

  • The educated differ from the uneducated as much as the living from the dead.

    Aristotle

    Have you ever had a class in the US constitution ?

    It should be mandatory reading for people that want to remain free and prosperous. Obama swears to uphold the US constitution but doesn't talk about the Central Bank destroying the country. (Traitor, Lier , Deceiver )

  • "Where's the LONG version of Obama's birth certificate ?"

    Hehe! So, what are you suggesting? That the SHORT version of his birth certificate, which says he was born in Hawaii, is a forgery?

    If the short version is a forgery, why don't you just call the FBI and have him arrested for forgery? In fact, if it was, I suspect they'd have done that already. And if the short version is fake, why wouldn't he just make a fake version of the long one? (Besides, what does this have to do with GOLD?)

  • Long Version

    Shows other detailed information such as Hospital, Doctor, Time of Birth, Country of BIRTH.

    The only reason I know is because I had to provide one to show my ancestry to get a work permit. (Had to prove where my grandmother was born) No LONG version of Birth certificate, no work permit simple as that. (Cost $50 to get a copy) No problem...So if its need to become President of the United States, a formality. No record, Not Qualified.

    Deception, Treason...that's how the US operates.

  • Gold

    6,000 Years of mining and all gold ever found fits into a basket ball court 80 feet high. Gold has some interesting properties but one of its major ones is because of its rarity it can be used as money. (Can't Counterfeit it). Its worth about 4 trillion dollars. Its a base of value (you can't destroy it). That's why it was pegged at $20 per oz in the US for over 100 years. (Double eagle) The states is heading for hyper-inflation which means big trouble for cool country.

  • TedinLasVegas doesn't understand history. Though Arab states never accepted the 1947 UN treaty, Isreal broke its 1949 agreements with Egypt (the Green Line) after the Six Day War. Since then there have been no offers of statedom to the Palestinians, and Isreal occupies, settles in, and controls transportation in and out of the West Bank and Gaza.

  • What, you don't think the 300,000 troops Egypt massed on Israel's border with the publicly-stated reason of wiping out Israel and killing all the Jews didn't give Israel the right to strike first? What were they supposed to do? Lay down and be murdered?

    Israel struck first and took land from Egypt, Jordan and Syria in order to secure borders against invasion.

    There have been, literally, dozens of offers of statehood; all refused.

  • I didn't say a word about justification, merely historical fact. Take a few breaths before you give yourself a coronary.

    I'd be interested in some sources about Israel offering statehood to the Palestinians after 1967. Who did they offer statehood to? What were the terms? What were the dates? How were the decisions on whether to accept made?

  • My point is, Israel didn't break the Green-line, Egypt did when it massed troops and threatened war.

    Besides the fact that the offer of statehood was NEVER taken off the table...

  • Ted, the only time I know of that statehood was on the table was the British mandate, and the following UN treaty which was not accepted by the Arab states. If you can point to a news source or something documenting an offer of statehood from Israel, I'd be happy to look at it.

    As far as the Six Day War, there are so many factors going into that mess I'm not going to say whether one side was more responsible, but the people that lost were the refugees, not the governments on either side.

  • clever editting

  • Obama is a great black man.

  • FORGET THE FACT THAT HE IS BLACK!

    why cant people see through this, it means nothing. okay so he had the image and economic connections needed to sponsor an election where a black man could win, but it does not make him any better, or any worse of a president.

    Obama is a great *man* (from what weve seen so far)

  • Truth is he's not black ?

    Obama is a great white/black man who's father was black and born in Kenya. Means Obama isn't a natural born US citizen.

    You folks have been deceived...

  • you are quite literally the stupidest person on this website

  • Gold remained pretty well around the $20 level for the first 2 hundred years in the land of the Eagle.

    The market ($1000 US) for 1 oz of gold is saying that the government is counterfeiting the US Fed Note into oblivion.

    Its not stupid stating the obvious, its a frickin tragedy.

    All paid jobs absorb and degrade the mind.

    Aristotle

    The welfare of the people in particular has always been the alibi of tyrants.

    Albert Camus

  • The deception is so EFFECTIVE you have the majority of the of the US population calling him great BLACK man.

    His mother was white, his father was Black.

    The Truth is he's neither white or black, just a human being like the rest of us peasants.

  • thank god for a president that has the willingness to say what americans should be like to countries americans are so ignorant and naive about.

  • So how come you still have men, weapons in Iraq and how come you sent 30 thousand troops to another sandbox ?

    Killing civilians won't get them on your side, funny that.

  • I think Obama's approach here will save us from more terrorist attacks than all of the Bush tactics (waterboarding, threats of bombings, invasions etc) combined. Obama is trying to put out the fire that Bush fanned the flames of for seven years. This is exactly what a good President is supposed to do!

  • obama is only promising to cease the attacks, he does do a good job portraying how peaceful America when there is such a need for peaceful agreement, but we can only hope hes being real here. whos to say hes not, his actions haven't shown it very well thus far. maybe if he went to the media they could help put out the fire that bush started, and they could quit publishing articles that only instill fear in US citizens

  • That's your concern? Barack Obama going to New York with his wife? You swallow Republican talking points like a twenty dollar crackwhore swallows a hot load, don't you?

  • Hah!  I like this guy.

  • "It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth Can Stand by itself." Thomas Jefferson

    Truth - 30 Million homes in the USA in foreclosure

    Obama's little date shows he doesn't care, he knows the US Fed Note is going to 0. 1/4 million in gold is worth something forever, 1/4 million in fiat currency , why that can go to 0 overnight. Where's your truth , all ya got is spin.

    That's why the US is done for, too many stupid people populate the joint.

  • I see the racists and the right are feeling scared....

  • Agreed charlie! They just can't stand a proud BLACK, african-american man is president!

  • They're also being driven crazy by the fact that possibly the smartest and most effective man ever to occupy the Oval Office happens to be an African-American.

    This, after all, is the crowd that secretly thinks the only good job for a black man is in jail, pressing license plates. No wonder they're coming unhinged. Their whole world view is being turned upside-down.

  • John Adams was more intelligent than Obama.

  • Adams? By advocating that only white men who own property should have the right to vote? No...not Adams. (He's "obnoxious and disliked" you know.;)

    But maybe I'll give you Jefferson.

  • Intelligent he was a genius just like the other founding fathers of the coolest country ever conceived by mankind.

    All the perplexities, confusion and distress in America arise, not from defects in their Constitution or Confederation, not from want of honor or virtue, so much as from the downright ignorance of the nature of coin, credit and circulation.

    John Adams

    That's why gold and silver is legal tender, paper ? why that's going to destroy the standard of living for the citizens.

  • I see the American people and it looks like they're going to be living in 3rd world type conditions. (Counterfeiting money, you guys suck).

  • Why do you hate America?

  • because of who the Americans have let steal their country from them.

  • Because they're counterfeiting their money into oblivion, which has a dramatic affect on the rest of the world's money because all of it is based on the US dollar.

    Then there's breaking Geneva conventions like spraying agent orange on a civilian population or torture or destroying the coolest country ever conceived by mankind.

    Its always the little things isn't it ?

  • COMMON CONSPIRACY THEORY FALLACIES:

    "Bandwagon Effect" get on the bus, it's leaving & all the cool people r on it.

    Appeal to Rebellion: "born to be wiiild"

    Shotgun Arg: many poor arguments strung together, try to make up in breadth what is lacking in certainty/depth.

    Straw Man Arg.

    Citing non-credible sources.

    Snob appeal: Don't u wanna have it ALL figured out?!

    Meanwhile, suspect motives for WANTING to believe (biases & blind spots) r seldom scrutinized & never ever given full disclosure

  • "It is error alone which needs the support of government. TRUTH can stan by itself." Thomas Jefferson

    This is the truth no one can spin it.

    US Federal Reserve Note - A bill of credit "promise of value".

    $20 US Gold Piece (Double Eagle, almost a full oz of gold)

    No spin necessary to tell the owner how valuable it is.

    Truth Stands alone, no need to spin it to make it real.

  • 911 - 11 million dollar spent and one year delay in investigation

    Bill Clinton getting a blow job - 30 million US spent no delay impeachment hearings, no consequence of the President of the United States lying to the public.

  • If you really want to be enlightened on Economics, you will read:

    "The Accursed Share" by Georges Bataille.

    Then get back to me.  ;-)

  • Should the 30 million American households in foreclosure read it as well or burn it to keep warm ?

  • Let Me Count the Ways:

    1) Invading countries based on lies

    2) Counterfeiting the world's reserve currency into oblivion

    3) Trading With Communist countries that slaughter their own people

    4) Providing arms to countries like Israel to slaughter innocent civilians

    5) Using mass media (Propaganda) to control the people

    6) False Flags to get the country to go to war (Gulf of Tonkin, Pearl Harbor , USS Liberty, Lusitania sinking, 911

    7) Government assassination of political leaders (JFK, RFK, MLK.

  • Obama is such a big black man! I love him!

  • This is a great job of abbreviating this speech. This is a great step ahead for america.

  • Going off cliffs is exciting but usually ends in the death of the lemming attempting the "great step".

  • Look at the Wall Street puppet speak ! What a fraud !

  • Sure but he doesn't have to work hard to fool the US citizens.

    The majority still believe paper money has value, its a disaster beyond measurement. Look at the comments people don't even know they're doomed.

  • Haha what kind of fucking idiot says 'Don't worry about the misguided rockets!' you fucking tool/

  • Moron. I'd be more worried about white phosphorus raining on my home, than a rocket that's landed 2 kilometers away.

    In the 22-day gaza siege, 1400 Palestinians died, many of them women and children from precisiong guided bombs, and Obama is standing there going on about Hamas's rockets which are prehistoric.

  • Since it's obvious you don't live there and you seem to be a fucking retard who completely missed the point I'll spell it out for you: YOU CAN DIE FROM JEW BOMBS OR YOU CAN DIE FROM 50 YEAR OLD HAMAZ ROCKETS IT DOESNT MATTER arguing which one is 'more' deadly based on fucking accuracy of all things is idiotic and you are dumb as hell

  • "What about Israeli violence Obama?"

    By demanding a stop to the construction of settlements, and saying that nothing less than a two state solution is acceptable to the U.S. he has already done more to fix the Israel/Palestine situation than any U.S. president in history!

    If Palestinians and Israelis want to blow the best chance they've had for peace in 60 years by claiming Obama doesn't go far enough, then to hell with all of them. Ditto for the peanut gallery critics in the U.S..

  • I am proud of Obama!

  • yup we are fixing the mess previous dumb fcks made in the world. Last time we should ever vote for a hick 2OO4.

  • Counterfeiting money isn't going to solve any problem, its going to put the economy into a hyper-inflationary depression.

    I hear GM car production is going to China, with the capital coming from the US taxpayers. No domestic car production means the standard of living for Americans is going down several notches.

    Ya got a Hitler from 2000 to 2008

    Ya get a Stalin from 2009 to ?

    All gold on the planet is worth 4 trillion

    Obama's budget 1.8 trillion, how do you spell toast.

  • you are just not too bright.

    sorry about your luck there. ;-)

    VIVA OBAMA! :-D

  • "not too bright"

    Gold 1971 - $35

    Gold 2009 - $1000

    Means the US Fed note is finished, its a frickin disaster or is it normal to have a War Criminal like Bush doing speeches for cash ? This years budget 1. 8 trillion in credit spending not capital spending (gold)

    ....and the meek shall inherit the earth....

  • AVG COST of a TRANSISTOR (as used in all computers and many other technologies) has gone down exponentially in the same period of time.

    Price of Transistor in 1970 = $1.00

    Price today: $0.00000001

    This is FAR LESS ARBITRARY

    and much more pertinent to ECONOMY than ur coveted lumps of metal with poor tensile strength.

    The last country to back their money with gold was Switzerland (40% of its value until joining the IMF in 1999)

    so pls get a fkn clue

    Worship not the golden calf !!

  • All gold mined in the last 6,000 years fits into a basket ball court 80 feet high.

    Now can you point out to me when the United States Government repealed the gold and silver as legal tender thang? The only reason you want a gold and silver standard is so when the government is counterfeiting money. Like they're doing right now, you turn in the promise to pay (paper) for the the paid in full (physical metal).

    Hyper-Inflation will hit the states first then all the rest of the countries.

  • I'm not 100% happy with his domestic policies, but I believe he is heading in the right direction internationally.

    A two-state solution is the only way to go!

  • I believe he's heading in the right direction ?

    The Empire consists of 730 bases in 130 countries that costs 1 Trillion US dollars to maintain.

    What is Obama doing to change the Empire Stat ?

  • You're a 40 year old american with Little Girl Laughing, slowed down among your favorites. You, dear sit, are a troll.

  • Great speech. This is why, even as a non-US citizen, I was immensely happy with the election of Barack Obama.

  • Hrmm, if you claim Obama isn't a citizen you must prove so. He has a birth certificate from Hawaii, so good luck.

    US citizens admire him, that's how he got elected. Ur logic is poor, many people from other countries dislike Obama, many people from other countries liked Bush. The last statement is completely incoherent, you might as well have said people like shooting stars unless they hit and kill them. nice spelling on the "cuntry" btw, lol.
