Poster: New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and gun control!...from TPC

Great poster that examines Mayor Bloomberg of New York's position on gun control and the obvious fallacy of his argument (not this one).

See it at The Political Commentator here.

Video, Cartoon: Hey recent college graduate, congratulations? (Hilarious)...from TPC

Great cartoon that depicts the plight being faced by recent college graduates when it comes to entering the real world saddled with huge amounts of student loan debt!

PJTV: Benghazi: If Only Charles Ramsey Were Secretary of State, Not Hillary Clinton

Charles Ramsey earned national fame for answering Amanda Berry's call for help. AlfonZo Rachel wonders why the Obama Administration did not answer Ambassador Chris Stevens call when he alerted the government that America was under attack by radical jihadists. Is it time to appoint more men like Ramsey to Obama's cabinet? Find out.

Ann Barnhardt. Brilliant.....................from Rico

Ann Barnhardt has outdone herself with this one found on her website today http://barnhardt.biz

I have been a fan of this woman's sheer intellect for years, and I absolutely love that she does not mince (or parse) her words.

- This piece is a supreme example of 'thinking' and of 'saying' what others understand...but are afraid to articulate.

Having often bemused my British friends by observing that Maggie Thatcher was the best man they have produced since Winnie Churchill, in all fairness let me add: Ann Barnhardt may be the best man in contemporary America.

NRA Life of Duty | A Tribute to Chris Kyle

From the 2013 NRA Annual Meetings in Houston, Texas:
Christopher Scott "Chris" Kyle was a US Navy SEAL and known as one of the most decorated snipers in American history. He was a veteran and a warrior, but many knew him as an extremely loving husband and father. "The best way to describe Chris," his wife, Taya, says, "is extremely multifaceted".

To the husbands and wives of our nation's service members, thank you for your unyielding pride, patience and sacrifice - and for supporting those who support our country.

LOW friends in HIGH places?....................from Rico

Congratulations arein order for those two TBTF banking behemoths JP Morgan and Bank of America for having absolutely PERFECT trading records for 1Q!

- I mean 100% perfect, not one day of 'loss' in the entire first quarter's tradng. Day traders can only look on with sheer envy, and Mom & Pop retail investors who are not 'connected' had better steer clear of this casino.

So, are these guys good, or what?

The "or what" is this:

- While it's GOOD to have friends in high places, it's even BETTER to have loyal retainers there.

Business 'as usual' continues in the obviously 'rigged' markets

The 'Ben' speaks. Classic paper raid. Staged.......................from Rico

Another 'classic' Cartel 'staged' operation centered upon RUMINT (rumor passing for intelligence) that the FED may 'taper' it's QEternity.

- Oh, the hilarity! As if the FED can do anything but continue being the money fairy and do even more QE...because to do otherwise would surely crash everything.

The 'timing' was set around Ben's speech at the SIFI conference in Chicago, and the precious metals were clearly 'raided' in the finest Chicago-style drive-by the crooks could muster.

While the FTV shills falsely call the paper 'raid' on paper Gold and paper Silver anything BUT what it really is, they also provide 'cover for action' for this collusive and criminal manipulation.

The message is clear: equities GOOD and are on a 'tear' and you don't want to "miss" this opportunity (never mind that this is a FED-fueled Ponzi scam which will burn everyone who buys the argument and becomes the 'greater fool'), and bullion is BAD and 'risky' so stay away from it!

- Sure. Riiight. Just try and locate, much less buy, a quantity of physical bullion for immediate delivery at these faux-paper 'spot' prices. You won't find any, but take comfort in the prettily-engraved non-redeemable fiat you hold...it burns well, and has 'other' practical uses that you'd otherwise be using your hand for.
