What
are we standing
on when we lecture other countries? Or
invade them...
Hidden
In Pain Slight:
Two Congressional committees have asked the Justice Department to
determine if the lies Hillary told during her Congressional testimony
over her emails rise to the level of perjury. Probably not, because
she undoubtedly had no intent to mislead.
Everythings
Bigger:
Twenty of the world's biggest
TBTF
banks have lost half a trillion buckeroos in market value this year.
Italy's Unicredit
has dropped
64%
in
value,. In the UK, RBS is down 56% and giant
HSBC
is down 24%, Deutsche Bank has
lost 47%
of
its appeal; even
Goldman has lost 20% of
its book value.
Envy:
Politicians in several Nordic nations are debating making a return
to school mandatory for senior citizens. If only...
All
Hands Decked:
Putin has cashiered all of the senior and mid-level officers
assigned to the Russian Baltic Sea fleet, apparently for not
enthusiastically provoking NATO forces to respond to Russian
harassment.
The
Way Things Are:
“The
U.S. continues to be in a post-credit-crisis recovery -- that means
more deleveraging is to come and because of this, expect mediocre
growth, job creation and retail sales for some time to come”

Gag
Me:
“Hillary
Clinton will make an outstanding president and I am proud to stand
with her here today.“
Bernie Sanders, in a flat emotionless voice, kissing the ring. My
heroes would have done better, but they are imaginary.
Restrained
Enthusiasm:
“I
would rather attend the public hanging of a good friend,” GOP
digital strategist Will Ritter on
going to the Trump convention.
Salting
The Mine:
The Democratic platform statement on trade agreements (dictated by
Hillary and her staff) is that they should be judged on “whether
they raise wages, create good-paying jobs, and enhance our national
security.” And that last phrase is what HRC will use to ram TTP
and TITP and all the rest down our throats after she's sworn in. She
only came out against TPP to ward off Bernie Sanders, before
that she viewed it as “the Gold Standard” and praised it
publicly over 40 times.
Hero
Whoreship:
Depositions reveal that revered football coach Joe Paterno knew of
Sandusky's abuse of children as far back as 1976.
Porn
O'Graph:
On the Up & Up.

We? Who is this we? One of the things they are standing on is our acceptance of this we.
The technique of drinking hot chocolate is hitting it so it's not too hot for your tastes and before it starts to cool and turn to waxy liquid chocolate.
