Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Kerry Visiting Home of Genghis Kahn


Kerry warning China they better be nice


It may be worth taking the time to back away from institutional corruption, oligarchy, incompetence, and subversive activity to reflect that our country fairly resembles its former self.  I can't imagine a prior nation being subjected to institutional corruption to this extent and maintaining something of a republic. It would be a wise time to exercise the right to vote out everyone.

Lao Tzu wrote the great wind does not blow all day, so, perhaps, the more these idiots create fires at every turn, they are building the backfire of those who will come to hate tyranny in the future. This is the way of the True Believer,

In the meantime, Kerry has the middle east under control and Holder is directing 40 FBI agents to find a crime the federal government can  prosecute in Mo. (no problem, there is no white collar crime anywhere and the FBI is not enforcing the U.S. Code. Plenty of agents around with wide bellies.)

Obama got to play golf with Alonzo Mourning after announcing he was feeling bad  execution of an American in the name of retribution over Obama's actions to dabble in a racist rampage in Iraq.

Nothing wrong, here, move on.

Two Sipper: Read with coffee or correct tea

...This cable was prepared by the U.S. Embassy in Beijing and was sent back to officials in Washington, D.C. {Wikileads} The embassy was commenting on a recent report by China's National Foreign Exchanges Administration...

China's gold reserves have recently increased. Currently, the majority of its gold reserves have been located in the U.S. and European countries. The U.S. and Europe have always suppressed the rising price of gold. [The U.S. and Europe] intend to weaken gold's function as an international reserve currency. They don't want to see other countries turning to gold reserves instead of the U.S. dollar or euro.  

Therefore, suppressing the price of gold is very beneficial for the U.S. in maintaining the U.S. dollar's role as the international reserve currency. China's increased gold reserves will thus act as a model and lead other countries towards reserving more gold. Large gold reserves are also beneficial in promoting the internationalization of the RMB [China's currency].

China basking in global warming


As I mentioned before, my favorite source for objective news is Xinha, the (communist) Chinese news agency. To get a feel for it and for the incredible winter disasters there, I recommend linking over: China Weather

To the right, see photo of stranded travelers in the a train station. Think we have troubles?

What is important to note is the recounting of all the assistance and messages of concern that China is receiving from world governments and NGOs. This is important as they begin to grow into maturity in the world community they may become better world citizens.

If you want a good snap shot of our election campaigns: Elections

All this stuff going on, all over the world, and we worry about dead and dying entertainers.
