Birth certificate not verified? And you're calling for others to do homework. You lean so far right that you're about to fall. Maybe a seat belt is in order. ;)
What good is it to file under the Freedom of Information Act for documents if all you're going to get is blacked-out documents? You can't read them. You don't get the information you filed for. How can that be in accord with the Freedom of Information Act? What good is that to anyone?

There are many questions that need to be asked that have not been asked.
It is clear that there are few voices on Capitol Hill that express the outrage that should be boiling over in America right now.
According to Congressman Paul Kanjorski, On Sept. 15,2008, Ben Bernanke reported to Congress that "an electronic run on the U.S. Banking system took place between the hours of 9 and 11 am on Sept. 11, 2008".
This event removed $550 billion before it was stopped.
Who were the investors behind this event?
Where are the transaction records?
Are they international records?
Have these records received any congressional review?
By what policies were the transactions approved in light of the massive quantities in such a short span of time?
Who in the Treasury made the decision to "terminate the operation, close down the money market accounts, and announce a guarantee..."?
What is the significance,(if any beyond the apparent), of the date and time?
Why were some congressmen threatened with martial law if the bailout was not signed?
People, you had better wise up.
Your federal government just colluded with the private Federal Reserve Board and Goldman Sachs to commit treason against the United States of America.

This writer may have explained a lot of what happened
Some might wonder what was the turning point that resulted in hired hitmen to be under contract against certain US financial markets. In my opinion, it was the invasion in the South Osettia region of Georgia in August 2008. The events around Georgia, with the United States Military deeply involved, along with a certain tiny mischievous ally nation, lit a fuse that set off a chain of events. In time, events led to orders given by high level powers, for the US fraud kings on Wall Street to swallow the medicine no later than first thing Monday morning on September 15th. When the Jackass inquired as to the nature of the urgency leading into that understood stated deadline date, no answer was given. The guess of the Bank For Intl Settlements was submitted by me, and it was confirmed. Other sources, the USTreasury Bond creditors, also applied the pressure, it was told. Rumor was thick that death threats had been delivered to certain Wall Street executives, such as Paulson. Thus the pressure passed on to the USCongress for passage of T.A.R.P. funds. The disbursement of those funds have not been made public partly because Wall Street (read Goldman Sachs) does not want the US people to be aware of payoffs for bond fraud under death threats. Also, the Congressional Inspector has cited a few dozen recommendations for criminal fraud investigations of the same T.A.R.P. funds. The US financial sector has become a den of vipers, no longer the bastion of gentlemen, but rather of syndicate bosses.
This is really incriminating but with all that we now know about who in treasury and Congress were being routinely breifed that Fannie and Freddie (do we know about AIG too?) were in serious trouble years ago, why has there been no special prosecutor or congressional hearing or class action lawsuit started to make these folks accountable? Certainly, Bernanke and Frank should be no where near tax payer money ever again. They should have already been made to resign pending criminal charges, along with the Congressmen who knew and took no action or blocked bills to regulate. What's wrong with this picture? Will Judicial Watch be filing charges?
Considering that this meeting took place on October 13, 2008, how exactly is this Obama's fault? Perhaps he shares responsibility for not setting things straight, but this was Bush administration shenanigans, not Obama.
Isn't it odd that the government's seizure of private assets goes unchallenged? Isn't this the way the Nazis ran the economy of Germany? So are Americans so different from the Germans who said and did nothing when Hitler seized and consolidated his control of Germany?
"...and you tell me over and over and over again my friend, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction......" (I know, it's from a war protest song, but these particular lyrics sure seem to fit with whats going on now)
I agree - It's time for the millions of Americans who are still oblivious to what is happening to wake up.
Who cares whos watch it was on, it is still going on and we need to do something about it. The gov is suppose to work for all the people not just dem or rep and when strong arming is used or calling CIA a lier to protect themselves we know something is wrong bigtime. For too long we trusted that the gov had our interests at heart, but we were too trusting. Now we need to be on our guard and be harder on those who we elect and keep ourselves informed. Unfortunately we can not trust politicians. I know when I vote, I am usually say who is the worst of both, I dont believe any of their talk because they say what needs to be said just to win. I want someone for a change to care about the country and what they can do to make it better.
Take action similar to what is being done in Montana and especially Texas. Each and every state needs to enact immediate legislation decreeing that it will honor no federal mandates, laws, executive orders, or any other demand by the federal government if thoses mandates, laws, executive orders or other demands are not based on actual powers granted to the federal government by the Constition. Simply...each state must refuse to recognize "any" federal government mandates the federal government has no Constitutional right to impose. There are sound reasons why the founding fathers limited the powers of the federal government in the Constitution. We are experiencing just the beginning of the facist socialist agenda to come if the federal government is not made to operate and behave within the constraints imposed on it by the Constitution. The federal government's worsening behavior (from both political sides...they're all puppets) provides a crystal clear, definitive example of just why the 2nd Amendment exists. The states must coordinate a united legislative drive, with the Constitution as their banner, to put the federal genie back in its bottle while they still can. Call your state representatives and "insist" they draft legislation that draws the line on federal powers. We don't "have" to stand by and let this insanity continue.
It was up to Congress to pass the bailout bills. It is Congress's fault for not stopping this mess. Both Democrats and Republicans failed miserably on this issue. 2010, it's time to change congress and vote those out who voted for these bailouts. It's you, the voter who has the final say at the ballot box.
The electronic voting machines have already been proved extremely hackable during several tests of the machines. So you really have no say at the ballot box either.
The only thing remaining for State and Federal BureauRATS to do to you is to confiscate your guns and ammunition. Once they do this, and then send their Gestapo agents to your door to confiscate what little you might have left, then what will you do; talk some more? Remember what Shakespeare said about Talkers???
Socialism is somewhat like Cancer. It does not overtake and kill you all at once; it kills you gradually. Politicians and bureauRATS operate in the same way. "Talking" will never cure either of these evil diseases.
When you really think about it, "talking" is about all cowards are capable of doing. Do you remember the bully in grade school? He or she pushed and shoved you every day; he or she took your lunch money or your baloney sandwich or apple. And, they kept on doing that to you day after day, until one day you got some of your friends to join with you and confront the bully. Seeing you and your buddies joined together, the bully suddenly realized that he or she was about to get a good "ass-kicking", and as bullies (government bureauRATS) usually do, backed off and let you alone. That's exactly what you will have to do if you ever want governments and its bureauRATS off your back and out of your everyday life!
In these times when your governments and bureauRATS are comprised of queers, homos, lesbians, divorcees, whores, Muslims, and other such Un-American cancers, I am constantly amazed as to why these dregs continue to frighten the American people. Maybe it's time for all good and decent Americans to "become bullies" and to take back the country for which their forefathers so bravely and valiantly fought and died. But, this takes courage and guts; virtues which have long since disappeared from the makeup of most Americans.
So, get used to it. Get ready to become a squeamish, afraid and intimidated bootlicker, bowing down to the bureauRATS with their guns and badges (and jails and prisons for you). TALK is not going to budge these government oppressors. If you will not take up your arms and defend your freedoms, liberties and properties; no one is going to do it for you. After all, how do you think the freedoms and liberties you think you now enjoy were won? Unfortunately, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Paul Revere, John Adams and a host of other "real Americans" are not here for you to ask. So sad, huh?
But, if any quasi-intellectual reading this doesn't agree with my diatribe, post your dsagreements on this forum. In the alternative, just "Keep on Talking." But don't expect any answers from the degenerates serving in your federal, state, county and local governments---they're not the least bit afraid of "talkers." And, thay're not the least bit afraid of "Watchers", either. God forbid, are we to suffer with yet another "Watcher" such as some type of judicial watch? Wow, more "Talkers and Watchers", just what America need more of!
