Another reminder that they are out to get you. And just because you realize that fact, doesn't mean YOU are crazy.

“House wants new ceiling on U.S. debt... ‘Temporary’ roof to be set at $295 billion.”

Temporary, indeed. We’re at 27.5 trillion now.

@12:34
The size of the debt is irrelevant since the money supply is based on the debt that backs it. Without a massive feeeral debt on their books, the federal reserve doesn’t issue currency. The shortage in liquidity comes when the fed retracts their supply of fiat and manufacture their own crisis. It is a cycle that they control and profit from.

Knowing this will either make you rich or make you bonkers.

"The only three people that care about the Gret Stet of Looezanna are Jesus H. Christ, Sears and Roebuck, and Earl K. Long........." I did not call him a cocksucker, I called him a sapsucker". These are direct quotes from Earl K. Long. Uncle Earl was one of a kind.

My first thought was this was going to be about Cliff Finch.

But then I remembered his wife ( Zelda ? ) didn't commit him . . . but only shot him in the ass with rock salt
or bird shot.

That was after this former Guv'ner of "The great state of Mis'ippi" was photographed neck'id in a heart shaped bathtub somewhere.

Vegas perhaps ?

But yeah, I had forgotten about the original Kingfish's issues with a mental facility.

Cliff Finch was the first thing that came to my mind, too. Did she actually shoot him? Will we ever find out the truth?

@5:47pm...I was a med student back in the day and rumor was that Finch was admitted with the diagnosis of "appendicitis" but was actually suffering from a GSW courtesy of his wife. Also someone supposedly wrote "DNR" (Do Not Resuscitate) as a gag on his chart.

My brother was an intern. He swears it was in fact appendicitis. The heart-shaped bathtub was in the Ozarks. More jobs and better paying jobs for all our people.

@12:34...I remember the 1st time I became grown enough to know about the National Debt. Reagan had doubled it from 1 trillion to 2 trillion...pocket change, the Trillion is the old Billion

I also see where Congress was Outraged because lack of spare parts kept a bombers guns & intercom from working during a Communist MIG attack. That is by definition an oxymoron now.

Longs wife left & moved into a new $60,000.00 house. That was some house then.

I don't remember as I was young. One governor had campaign advertising with a lunch box. I think he also operated a dozen or some piece of heavy equipment.

@ 4:16 p.m.
Gov./Sen. Huey P.Long was the real Kingfish. He and Earl were brothers. The Longs of Louisiana were actually from Smith County, Mississippi before the War.
I am surprised that no one mentioned Blaze Starr's role in the affair and the Exploading sofa" from her days a stripper in the French Quarter. It's available on YouTube.
I recall that in an interview with Blaze when a movie was made of her that when Sen.John F. Kennedy and Jackie were visited New Orleans that while Earl was showing Jackie the the Cabildo,that Blaze and the soon-to-be POTUS were to President were doing wild thing at Blaze's flat in the Quarter.

" One governor had campaign advertising with a lunch box. I think he also operated a dozen or some piece of heavy equipment."

You remember correctly.

That was Cliff Finch's campaign ads.
A lunchbox and driving a backhoe.

Actually that was a brilliant campaign strategy.
The "working man" image appealed to many voters.

But while that demographic propelled him into office, they didn't expect see this "working man" taking a bubblebath in a heart shaped tub.

7:31, have you wondered why JFK had so many indiscreet indiscretions with women who were so OBVIOUS? ...why he had so many secrets that everybody knew about?

Just google something like "JFK and Lem Billings", if you want to know what Kennedy was trying so hard to distract attention from. It's also a good example of "our" media's longtime control of what the public is allowed to know. You'll notice that the story, even today, is mainly covered by sources across the Atlantic.

"I was a med student back in the day and rumor was that Finch was admitted with the diagnosis of "appendicitis" but was actually suffering from a GSW courtesy of his wife."

Thank you !

That's what many of us knew.
But he did make a miraculous recovery!

Hell, when I was freshman at Ole Miss in 1980, the former Guv would drive over from Batesville every Thursday & Friday and be the first one sitting at the bar in the Warehouse restaurant/bar.

(So his butt injury must have healed . . . as he remained seated on the those hard bar stools for hours ).

I also watched Finch hitting on lil' college girls . . . while most of the campus was still in class.

Gawd those were the days.

I'm not knocking Gov. Finch, only remembering facts.

Actually I can't blame him.
I would have tried the same thing, if I had been a former Guv'nahhh.
