the Treasury Secretary told the President what sort of a deal HE had cut with his Wall Street banking pals! This kind of sums up who is really running this country and for whose benefit. The truth of the matter is that Robert Rubin IS more powerful than the President! When you search for the Oath of Office for the 'Secretary of Treasury' you will NOT find one. What you will find is Rubin's APPOINTMENT as the alien, corporate 'Governor' of 'The Fund' and 'The Bank,' and other INTERNATIONAL organizations for a period of five years. The de jure Office of the Secretary of Treasury was formerly a cabinet level position, but after the creation of the INDEPENDENT TREASURY in 1920-21, the funds were COMMINGLED and the Treasury of the United States of America was ABOLISHED. With the creation of the Federal Reserve System in 1913, it set up the mechanism to economically overthrow the de jure monetary system and replace it with paper on a 'float'. Section 16 of the Federal Reserve Act, which is codified at 12 USC 411, declares that 'Federal Reserve Notes' are 'obligations of the United States.' The 'full faith and credit' of the United States was thereby hypothecated and re-hypothecated to the lending institutions for the issuance and emission of bills of credit as legal tender. The paper circulation and transactions accounts could then be inflated by 60% and the purchasing power depreciated and reduced by an equivalent amount. By becoming a member in the IMF, the United States re-hypothecated its obligations and the full faith and credit to the International Organization, under pretense of the Gold Reserve Act and the Articles of Agreement of the IMF. Of course, when a government becomes a voting share stockholder in any corporation, it RELINQUISHES its SOVEREIGN CHARACTER and takes on the character of the corporation. (See: Bank of the United States vs. Planters Bank of Georgia, 6 L.Ed 244). As of 1976, the United States had 19.96% of the voting share stock in the IMF, the largest of any other Nation-State. [As of 1996, the U.S. voting share was 17.78%, more than three times higher than the next two highest countries - Germany and Japan, at 5.54% each. TiM Ed.]. After the passage of Public Law 90-269, on March 18, 1968, the United States declared it no longer guaranteed the uniform value of the coins and currency of the United States. This act REMOVED the remaining reserve requirements on circulating notes and obligations. Approximately $1.3 BILLION in gold was 'pledged' against 'gold certificates' and held as reserves against the Federal Reserve's circulating notes and obligations at this time. Under this Act, the gold certificates were WITHDRAWN and RETIRED, the gold then considered as 'free gold' was paid out to foreign interests at $35 per ounce at a time when the world price of gold was nearly $120 per ounce. The monetary system of gold was then replaced by a mechanism of 'Special Drawing Rights' (SDR's) within the framework of the IMF. Now here is the rub: (1) The operations of the Exchange Stabilization Fund...and now the SDR's...are under the 'exclusive control of the Secretary of Treasury' and 'are NOT REVIEWABLE by any other officer of the United States'; (2) anything in the Exchange Stabilization Fund remains in the Fund, for the use of the Fund; (3) the new program is subject to the Articles of Agreement of the IMF in accordance with Section 3 of the SDR Act of 1968; and the Secretary of Treasury is the 'Governor' of the IMF, (4) and is NOT an officer of the United States. The Secretary (Governor-IMF) issues an international letter of credit called a 'Special Drawing Rights certificate' to the Federal Reserve banks 'in such form and in such determination as HE may determine'. The SDR is then deposited in the Federal Reserve banks, which in turn credits the account of the Exchange Stabilization Fund with Federal Reserve Notes in an amount equal to the value of the SDR certificate. SDR's became the 'collateral security for Federal Reserve Notes'. The term 'dollar' was thereafter valued in direct and inseparable proportion to Special Drawing Rights, NOT TO 'DOLLARS,' gold and silver Coin. The 'dollar' became mere 'book entries in special accounts of the International Monetary Fund.' (See: Senate Report 1164). Needless to say, the Constitution for the United States of America expressly provided for 'gold and silver coin'. These same metals have an intrinsic value because of their natural scarcity, and the expenditures necessary to extract, mill and refine them. The duty and obligations to maintain the purity of such a dual metallic monetary standard were determined by the Supreme Court in a case entitled, U.S. vs. Marigold, 13 L.Ed. 257, at pages 260-261. In short, Congress is 'accordingly authorized and BOUND IN DUTY to prevent its debasement and expulsion, and the destruction of the general confidence and convenience, by the influx and substitution of a spurious coin in lieu of the constitutional currency.' But par-value requirements and the uniform value of the coins and currency of the United States were eliminated, and with the enactment of Public Law 95-147 on Oct. 28, 1977, this Act placed ALL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS - meaning your local bank and credit union - under the DIRECT CONTROL AND SUPERVISION of the alien, corporate, 'Governor of The Fund' and 'The Bank'. There is no longer any obligation to stabilize the exchange value of the 'dollar'. Congress no longer has any control or authority over the de facto monetary system. It has ALL been transferred to the IMF and WORLD BANK via the 'Governor' of the same. Robert Rubin, who is also called the 'Secretary of Treasury' - a former cabinet level position that exists ONLY under PRETENSE OF NAME. The United States exists only as the ALTER-EGO of the IMF and WORLD BANK under the United Nations. Therefore, ALL so-called 'FEDERAL' funding to the several States the Union, indestructible under the Constitution for the United States of America, is in fact and law originating NOT from the 'NATIONAL/FEDERAL GOVERNMENT,' but through and from AGENTS OF FOREIGN PRINCIPALS - International Organizations - that have nothing to do at all with the United States of America. There is no mathematical solution to this problem. The solution does, however, lie in removing this Nation from the Articles of Agreement of The Fund and The Bank. But since Congress are mere willing agents of their foreign principals, the likelihood of this happening is remote. These are just some of the sordid details of this story. It is long and very complex. As they say, tyranny is always cloaked in complexities |

shortbread and drambuie. i was thinking coffee, but i'll have to give that a try. i don't know about the rocks, though. i'll leave the mixed drinks to you and the ladies, tequiza boy. |
Actually, does having it on the rocks make it a mixed drink? The only mixed drink I know of with Drambuie is a rusty nail. |
i like a mixed drink here and there. martini. manhattan. nothing makes me happier than being falsely pretentious about liquor. there was a spell about a year ago when everyone i socialized with seemed to be on an herbal liqueur kick. there is some harsh shit in that bag. not to mention the cynar. that is crazy sipping. |
|
don't forget ZIMA! |
YUCK. and: WHAT'S THE POINT. |
|
sarah, please provide a quality alternative to shortbread. something that is good with cynar, preferably. |
|
how about some sweet orange and currant mini-scones? since cynar is bittersweet, the orange would slightly offset the bitter, herby, leafy taste, and the currant would compliment the vaguely sweet undertones. and there's plenty of dry, buttery sweetness to a scone, but with the softness of buttermilk and eggs, so that you don't choke on it. oh, and scones have actual flavor. the other thing about cynar is that its considered an after-dinner digestive agent type of drink. so the thing about scones is that you can make them sweeter and more dessert-like but unlike some other types of baked goods, adding more sugar won't upset the balance of the rest of the recipe. and if you ate too much for dinner, scones would make a lighter dessert. something like this: 3 cups flour generous 1/2 cup sugar 2-1/4 tea baking powder 1/2 tea baking soda 3/4 tea salt 3/4 cup unsalted sweet cream butter (cut into pieces) 1/4 cup chilled lard or vegetable shortening 1 cup cup cold whole buttermilk 3 tbs orange juice 1-2 tbs roughly grated orange peel 3/4 cup dried currants mix flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt in a bowl. cut in butter and shortening until well combined. add buttermilk, juice, peel, and currants. stir just until the dry mixture is incorporated. knead the ball of dough for only a few turns. if you over-knead it, the currants will be too tough. divide the ball of dough into two balls and flatten each one into a circle about 3/4 inch thick. cut it up like a pie into wedges. baste with buttermilk and sprinkle with sugar. bake them about 12-16 minues at 425 degrees. if you them crunchier, like shortbread, you can reducd the amount of baking powder by 1/2 teaspoon. while they cool to room temperature, pour yourself a little cynar and let it air out a little. when everything is ready, go crazy. |
OH MY GOD. |
|
|
|
OH and don't forget the christmas pudding.. my mouth is sooooo salivating.. |
|
spiracle, don't tease. put the clotted cream on the scone, the black pudding on the plate next to the eggs and the mushrooms and the grilled tomato and the fried bread and the baked beans, and leave the marmite on the fucking shelf because that is just nasty. |
and the most gross thing ever is the taco from jack in the crack.. |
actually, it probably tastes pretty good..i just can't get past the idea of it.. |

did i tell you about the mole sauce i made earlier this year? it took me three days. in fact, it might take me three days just to type out the recipe and directions. but *so* worth it. it made about a gallon of sauce, and we still have some in the freezer. the older it gets, the better it tastes. |
Do share the recipe Sarah. By the way, neither the words "mole" or "clotted" are very appetizing, are they? |

CHIP BUTTIES ROCK. There's nothing better than chips - proper chips not some french fry bullshit - from the fish and chip shop covered in Watties sauce placed on soft white bread with fresh butter. Folded gently and then SQUISHED down to make the delectable chip buttie. Those ones with the cat are not authentic. New Zealand has the best chip butties in the world. |
I would have never made it thru college without them. I love Jack.But he doesn't live here.Well,actually theres 2 now,but they are not close to where I live. Sometimes I go to Texas,just for a tastey Jack treat. |
ok, you made the chip buttie sound ok even though i don't know what watties is..like an hp or what? |
'You'll always be a kiwi if you love our Watties sauce'. Apparently. I think Fairy Bread is English. And that needs to be made on skinny white sandwhich bread, spread with fresh butter then sprinkled with hundreds and thousands, and, this is the important part - cut diagonally so you have triangles. |
i accidently had fairy bread at a children's birthday party (didn't realize it was for the kids)..i swear they spread it with mayo instread of butter..mayo, sprinkles and white bread.. I think children have undeveloped taste buds (or perhabs just the opposite??)..as a kid i would eat bacos straight out of the jar for lunch (those fake red/brown bacon flavored bits)...and a sandwich spread THICK (talking 1/2 inch) of butter was a "good thing". I would also eat those individual packets of dry oatmeal...but i would eat it DRY and save the sugary goodness for last..i would have a glass of water near so i wouldn't choke on dry oatmeal.. |
and what the hell is a jack taco? |
I know they're low on the nutritional chart,but oooh the gooey goodness. The 2 Jack in the Boxes they have here don't even have secret sauce. Its true,absence does make the heart grow fonder. I do cook my own homemade Mexican,which is mighty tastey, but damn,there's just nothing like a 3am run to Jack when your'e buzzing. |
|
jack makes a good chocolate malt too. if you're in a hurry. |
