Bank of England Governor: U.S. Faces Same Danger as Greece

The United States is facing the same fiscal problems as Greece, says Mervyn King, Governor of the Bank of England.

“Bear in mind King is usually one of the most guarded policymakers in both British and central banking circles. Not yesterday,” the U.K. Telegraph reported.

“It isn’t often one has the opportunity to get such a blunt and straightforward insight into the thoughts of one of the world’s leading economic players. Most of this stuff usually stays behind closed doors, so it’s worth taking note of.”

Special: Dick Morris Sees Coming Obama Financial ’Aftershock’

King’s “frank” comments were definitely not “pleasing” to President Barack Obama and to European leaders, the Telegraph reports.

“He also believes that European Union must become a federalized fiscal union — in other words with central power to tax and spend — if it is to survive. Just two of the nuggets from one of the most extraordinary press conferences,” the Telegraph reported.

King is not the only leading opinion-maker worried about the parlous fiscal state of the United States.

Nouriel Roubini, appearing on Fox News, notes that the fiscal crisis started in 2007 with too much debt in the private sector.

Now, the United States and Europe have socialized the debt. Trillion dollar deficits are not sustainable, however.

“What has happened in Greece could happen in the U.S. We could have serious problems,” says Roubini, the former Clinton White House economist, and professor at New York University.

”We have the debt of the federal government. Many state and local governments are bankrupt. There are unfunded liabilities for social security. There are unfunded liabilities for state pensions.”

Editor’s Note: Mervyn King, Governor of the Bank of England, has warned the U.S. is heading for a financial “meltdown.” Dick Morris says investors must prepare to protect their wealth. He says you must read the new book “Aftershock” by the authors who predicted the last crash.

Brewer to Obama: No One in Arizona is Laughing
President fails to secure border, opts for jokes instead

PHOENIX –– Governor Jan Brewer sparked a renewed national focus on border security and illegal immigration when she signed SB1070. While Brewer has been celebrated by many for taking action to enforce laws that Washington has long ignored, those who oppose the law have chosen pithy punch lines over responsible and pragmatic action. Far away from the border at the White House Correspondents Dinner, President Obama decided that Arizona’s unsecured borders and illegal immigration crisis are a laughing matter. Unfortunately, no one in Arizona is laughing. Watch the latest video below:

In December 2008, the U.S. Justice Department said that Mexican gangs are the ”biggest organized crime threat to the United States.” In 2009, Phoenix had 316 kidnapping cases, turning the city into our nation’s kidnapping capital. Almost all of the persons kidnapped were illegal immigrants or linked to the drug trade.

“The very same week that Governor Brewer signed SB 1070, a major drug ring was broken up and Mexican cartel operatives suspected of running 40,000 pounds of marijuana through southern Arizona were indicted. A week later, a local deputy sheriff was assaulted by suspected drug smugglers carrying an automatic weapon,” said campaign spokesman Doug Cole. “The drug trafficking and border violence is out of control in Arizona and demands serious attention. President Obama and Congress ignored several requests from Governor Brewer for help in securing the border. Instead of helping, President Obama chooses to crack jokes to an adoring crowd. Mr. President, this is not a laughing matter.”

PA Rep. Daryl Metcalf ready to introduce legislation to enforce immigration laws in Pennsylvania

”The purpose of this legislation is to offer every illegal alien residing in Pennsylvania two options, leave immediately or go to jail.

Whether you came to steal Pennsylvania jobs or to leech off of our state’s fraud-ridden, ’close your eyes and verify’ welfare system, once this law is enacted there will be absolutely no economic incentives for you to remain here.”

Franklin Graham: Obama ’Giving Islam a Pass,’ Warns of Persecution
Monday, 03 May 2010 08:16 PM Article Font Size
By: David A. Patten

Evangelical leader Rev. Franklin Graham issued his toughest remarks yet Monday on the administration’s role in revoking his invitation to speak at the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer event, charging that President Obama is ”giving Islam a pass” rather than speaking openly about the ”horrific” treatment women and minorities receive in many Muslim countries.

In an exclusive telephone interview with Newsmax.TV, Graham called revoking his invitation to the prayer service ”a slap at all evangelical Christians.”

And he clearly placed the blame on the Obama administration, telling Newsmax that the Pentagon would never revoke such an invitation without first consulting with the White House.

”I’m being restricted from my religious rights, and from what I believe,” Graham warned, as he complained of a growing “secularization” in the government.

He also warned Christian of “coming” persecution for believing in Jesus Christ.

Story continues below.

‘Very Much Opposed to What We Stand For’

On April 22, the Pentagon announced that it would be ”inappropriate” to have Graham speak at the May 6 event. After 9-11, Graham said Islamic teachings had made that faith ”a very evil and wicked religion.”

He says that view is based on decades of travel and ministry to the Middle East where he has seen evidence of religious violence, including the mistreatment of women.

Graham said the Pentagon snub matter came up during last week’s visit by President Obama with Franklin and his world-renowned father, Rev. Billy Graham, at the elder Graham’s home in North Carolina.

”He said he didn’t know anything about it until two days prior to that meeting,” Franklin Graham tells Newsmax. ”And I would certainly believe him. I don’t think that he would say something that wasn’t true, so I believe what he said.

”But I certainly believe that it was people in his administration that said no,” Graham continued. ”I don’t think the Pentagon would say no on an invitation like this without consulting the White House.”

The Pentagon’s invitation was actually to the National Day of Prayer task force led by Shirley Dobson, wife of respected Christian leader James Dobson. Shirley Dobson castigated the Pentagon’s decision, saying it suffers from rampant ”political correctness.”

Graham, as the task force’s honorary chairman, had been scheduled to speak at the event. After the invitation was rescinded, he warned that anti-Christian activists are trying to remove all traces of religion from the U.S. military.

In his interview with Newsmax.TV, Graham said the invitation controversy is ”absolutely” part of a pattern of hostility toward Christianity in the federal government.

”And I don’t know if it’s exactly from President Obama,” Graham said in the interview. ”But I’m certain that some of the men around him are very much opposed to what we stand for and what we believe.”

The younger Graham tells Newsmax that he perceives an increasing secularization in government, a pattern that he says began long before Obama became president.

”This goes back into the Clinton years,” he tells Newsmax. ”This whole secularization has come in, creeping in, and it’s getting more and more and more.

”And of course the Bush administration was very friendly toward evangelicals. And [Bush] certainly, I think if he were president … he would have overturned that [Pentagon] decision,” Graham says. ”And I am hoping that President Obama will do this as well.”

Islam Is ‘Not the Faith of This Country’

Asked why President Obama has praised Islam on several occasions, even as his administration has taken actions seemingly hostile toward Christianity, Graham said: ”I don’t know.”

He continued: “It seems as though Muslims are getting a pass. And you look at the violence that they have portrayed against women. It’s just horrific. If you just take women alone … And I just don’t understand why the president would be giving Islam a pass.

”We certainly love the Muslim people,” Graham went on to say. ”But that is not the faith of this country. And that is not the religion that built this nation. The people of the Christian faith and the Jewish faith are the ones who built America, and it is not Islam.”

Regarding the recent case of a British preacher recently arrested for publicly espousing the biblical view that homosexuality is a sin, Graham was asked if that level of secular repression could be enacted in the United States.

”Oh, no question. It’s coming,” Graham says. ”I think when you preach that Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life, I think we’re going to see one day that people will say, ’This is hate speech, because you’re being so narrow and you’re excluding other people.’ I believe that, I think we’re going to see that come.”

Revocation of the Graham speaking engagement is one of several administration moves that have alarmed some Christian leaders.

Earlier this year, an invitation to Family Research Council leader Tony Perkins to speak at a prayer lunch at Andrews Air Force Base was revoked, after he criticized President Obama’s call to allow gays to serve openly in the U.S. military.

Perkins, a veteran himself, told CBN: ”I never thought when I put on the uniform as a United States Marine, served six years serving this country, never gave thought to the fact that one day I would be denied the right to speak.”

In March 2009, the Vatican condemned the president’s decision to lift Bush administration restrictions on public funding for stem-cell research.

In April last year, the White House directed Georgetown University to cover up part of a crucifix, as well as the initials ”IHS,” a traditional symbol for Jesus Christ, that were visible above the podium where Obama was scheduled to speak.

The National Day of Prayer event is itself under attack. Earlier this month, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb of Wisconsin ruled that holding a National Day of Prayer was unconstitutional, maintaining it violates the First Amendment’s prohibition against the establishment of a religion by the federal government.

That ruling stemmed from a lawsuit filed in 2008 by a group of atheists and agnostics. The Justice Department announced it will appeal Crabb’s ruling.

The White House has announced President Obama will sign a proclamation recognizing this year’s National Day of Prayer event, but he is not scheduled to attend Day of Prayer activities.

During President George W. Bush’s administration, an annual Day of Prayer event was held in the White House.

Dear Friend and Supporter:

Thank you so much, we won a great victory for America on Friday 4/23/10!

Governor Jan Brewer signed into law SB1070, legislation that I wrote and
worked on for the last 4 years, that frees law enforcement personnel all
across our state from their shackles, and allows them to enforce our
immigration laws. The bill does much more than that of course, but if you
have been watching your television or reading news coverage of the events of
the past few days, you know that the open-borders crowd is most upset at the
prospect that our laws are finally going to be enforced. They lament that
if Arizona starts enforcing its immigration laws, then people who are in
this state and country illegally will pack up and leave.

Well it is about time!

Freedom is not free.

Illegal is not a race, it is a crime.

There is currently a battle raging in this country that will determine
whether our nation enforces its immigration laws and secures its borders or
becomes victim to its enemies. We are a Nation built upon the ”Rule of Law”
and either we stand up for the principles that our Founding Fathers gave us
to ensure lasting Liberty, enshrined in a Constitution that protects those
liberties or we destroy all that is sacred and the end result will be a
nation who commits suicide.

This nation must rise up and take back America. Across this nation, Tea
Party freedom loving patriots/constitutional conservatives are standing up
and demanding we take back of America. This is about America, many
Democrats, Republicans and Independents who are discontent with the radical
expansion of government, the erosion of freedom, unsecured borders,
sanctuary policies that restrict law enforcement from enforcing our laws and
the threat to our founding principles are saying enough is enough.

THE TIME HAS COME TO FIGHT. FIGHT TO SECURE OUR BORDERS, FIGHT TO PRESERVE
THE RULE OF LAW, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, AND (IN THE WORDS OF WINSTON
CHURCHILL) NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER GIVE UP!

Like you, I will not stand by and watch this great country destroy itself
under mediocre leadership that drifts from one crisis to the next, eroding
our national will and purpose. The American people deserve better from
those to whom they entrust our nation’s highest offices, and we stand united
in our resolve to do something about it.

We must demand the laws be enforced. We don’t need reform we need
enforcement. It will take all of us to force our politicians to do
something about it.

Of course, the next step of the open borders crowd is altogether
predictable. They promise to ”punish” those of us who passed this law.
Already, I have two opponents in my race for re-election, so I am asking
you to stand with me and support my re-election campaign with a
contribution. Please go to http://www.russellpearce.com to make an online
contribution or you can send a check to the address below.

In my last race, one opponent spent more than $80,000 trying to beat me, and
he was supported by tens of thousands of dollars from outside groups, each
of whom wanted to send a message to lawmakers who put America and the rule
of law first. They wanted us to know that they would punish us for standing
up for the rule of law and defending our sovereignty, so they tried to make
an example of me. Thanks to the support of good friends like you, I won
that race, but they have made clear their intention to come after me again
in 2010.

My friends, it is an honor to serve you at the State Capitol. And I am
proud of the work that we have done. Will you now stand with me and defend
our hard-won gains?

It does not matter how great or small your contribution. While I am happy
to show an overflowing campaign account, it is an equally strong signal to
be able to show hundreds or thousands of contributors. So whether you are
giving the maximum of $410 or if you can only give $5, please go to
http://www.russellpearce.com and make a contribution today.

We are winning this fight, together… And it is a privilege to stand
shoulder to shoulder with you. Thank you, in advance, for your support!

And as always, do not ever hesitate to contact me if there is anything that
I can do for you.

Your faithful servant,

Russell Pearce
