Nice to hear from you
When I opened my e-mail today I had a nice letter from someone who'd read my blog on the links from Joyce Foundation to President Obama to CCX to Al Gore to Goldman Sachs. (These carbon exchanges remind me of investing in fantasy baseball.) He thanked me. Occasionally there are comments or e-mails to balance the lefties who claim to only have my best interests at heart and want to shut me down, either on Facebook or blogspot. Either I write too much (you need to get a life, Norma) or I haven't researched it (even though I provide the links) or I'm buying into right wing conspiracies (it's not a conspiracy if they explain what they're doing) or s/he is just bossy and won't take the time to write her own stuff so they come here and complain. The nasties just get deleted. It's always "freedom for me and not for thee" when you're left of center. Even when Obama followers aren't transparent on purpose, they are.

Glenn Beck is the new Woodward and Bernstein
"Between 1972 and 1976, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein emerged as two of the most famous journalists in America and became forever identified as the reporters who broke the biggest story in American politics." [from their archives--and they probably wrote that description]
Until now. Now Glenn Beck reveals two or three scandals, payoffs, and scams a week--he's leaving "famous journalists" in the dust. This week he's connecting the dots again--Franklin Raines' tenure at Fannie Mae (which helped create our current housing bubble and crisis), where he bought up the tools for a carbon exchange, then fell into disgrace, then hooked up with other Chicago green poverty pimps, labor unions, community organizers, financiers, CEOs, a future president, the wildly rich Joyce Foundation (funds the Tides Foundation's projects), a former vice-president, a variety of communist organizations and comes out squeaky clean to be an Obama advisor. Wow. What a roller coaster from power to disgrace to an even more powerful position all in one decade.
Where are the journalists when you need them, and why are they letting a "radio clown" do all the dirty work? Something like a tenth of American voters listen to or watch Glenn Beck--and they know how to investigate their little niche of the economy in their state or specialty and they send him tips, which his staff then investigates and verifies. This used to be what our "free press" did before it became a subservient lackey of the government. This week he has also covered the Democrats trying to sneak *Puerto Rico in as the 51st state using the Tennessee Plan, and the "black robe brigade," a period in our American history when pastors actually led instead of followed.
*Puerto Ricans have voted this down 3 times--they are U.S. citizens but the 3.8 million living here cannot vote in presidential elections and have no voting representatives in Congress. They don't pay federal taxes, but receive reduced welfare and other federal benefits. The two million Puerto Ricans living on the mainland have the same rights as all other U.S. citizens.
Update: Tonight Beck revealed the Wizard behind the curtain (I thought it would be Soros) is Joel Rogers of the University of Wisconsin, of the New Party, The Workers' Party, The Apollo Alliance or whatever name our "new" communists are going by. I don't think Beck mentioned this, but the Real Barack Obama blog noted him in 2008 as the husband of one of Obama's law partners. Lots of stuff on him on the web. Just Google.

Chicago Carbon Exchange--the Players
"Here are the players and their roles:
Joyce Foundation – A group founded in 1948 that took a sharp turn to the left after its founder, Beatrice Joyce Kean died in 1972.
Barack Obama – President of the United States and one time Board member of the Joyce Foundation. Largely responsible for creating the Chicago Climate Exchange by funneling money to it from the Joyce Foundation.
Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) – An exchange dealing exclusively with Cap and Trade passes, techonology, etc. It was formed largely due to Obama's role as Board member on Joyce Foundation. Obama oversaw the funneling of money from that foundation to the CCX as well as to an entity headed by Bill Ayers' brother.
Valerie Jarrett – Senior advisor to Barack Obama and current Board member on the Joyce Foundation.
Al Gore – Founder of London-based Generation Investment Management (GIM). London also happens to be in the same country where climategate broke. GIM owns 10% of the CCX.
Goldman Sachs – Banking giant that, like Gore, owns 10% of the CCX. Also worthy of note is that at least six former Goldman Sachs executives work inside the Obama administration while Congress puts on a dog and pony show, publicly chastising other Goldman execs about their supposed complicity in the financial crisis.
Franklin Raines – Former head of Fannie Mae. While there, Raines used taxpayer dollars from Fannie Mae to purchase cap and trade technology."
Whether or not you like Glenn Beck, you might ask your favorite news source reporters why he is doing investigative reporting and they aren't. I think the charade going on about "punishing" Goldman Sachs is pretty clever since they're all on the same team. But it also serves a dual role of demonizing Jews, and indirectly by association, Israel, because "Wall Street fat cats" and "greedy CEOs" are just code words for Jews. Just check back into the anti-semitism of the 1930s.

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
I was really bogged down in the beginning pages of May's book club selection, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society until Adrienne passionately reviewed it for me yesterday at coffee, so I've persevered and have gotten into the story--entirely written in letters (1946) about the occupation in 1940 by the German Nazis in WWII of Guernsey, a small British island. The literary society of the title began life as a pig roast when a local woman managed to hide a pig from the German soldiers and invited her nearly starving neighbors to share. My political antennae were up as I read this section on what marvelous record keepers, regulators and law makers the German occupiers were. They recorded each piglet born, gave it a birth certificate, and then the death needed to be reported too, and the Germans would issue a death certificate for the deceased animals. The Islanders saw their hard work and agricultural crops stolen from them by the occupiers, so they devised a plan, and circulated the same dead piglet amongst themselves, hiding one of the healthy one so that the count came out right when the Germans came.
And here's where I got to thinking about our own government regulations, becoming over the years ever more oppressive and anti-free market. Right now we're being treated to the dog and pony show of government employees (Congress) scolding Goldman Sach employees. One made the regulations so they could take a big cut, the other got around the regulations by risk taking and cleverness so they could keep their cut. The only difference between this and the circulating dead pig story is that Goldman Sachs employees float in and out of the government and help make the regulations so it will all work to their advantage. The Islanders of the novel didn't move back and forth among the ranks of the Germans.
Goldman Sachs is heavily into the 10 trillion valued cap and trade scheme owning, like Al Gore, a chunk of the thin as air exchange houses, such as the Chicago Carbon Exchange (CCX), in which Obama was involved (board member of the Joyce Foundation) before he came President.
Our wealth (through higher taxes) is being distributed through smoke and mirrors exchanges like the dead pig on Guernsey Island. Soon it will be no more. The patent to facilitate the new carbon exchange industry has been purchased by Franklin Raines, our illustrious attorney general, accounting fraudster and former CEO of Fannie Mae deeply involved in our housing collapse. Scott Lesmes formerly of Fannie Mae bundling mortgages to resell to investors is now in charge of the same system for carbon exchanges.
Is this analogy weak? You betcha, but it just shows you things aren't always as they seem and regulations can sometimes smell like a dead pig.
