Raven Symone Slammed All Over Social Networking For Negative Comments On Harriet Tubman

More Proof Hollywood Is Out Of Touch 

Raven Symone

People in Hollywood are often out of touch with reality. Take former child star Raven Symone for example (real name Raven Symone Christina Pearman). The black, non-biracial actress previously stated she is not black. Raven also stated she is not a lesbian, though she has a live in girlfriend she states she is dating. Raven also made another gaffe stating “I am from every continent in Africa.” Alrighty then. I’m just gonna quickly move things along like I didn’t even read that one.

This week a poll was conducted where Americans overwhelming voted to place slavery hero Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill. However, Raven disagreed and used her podium on the sinking talk show “The View“ to express her disapproval. Raven stated, “No offense to everyone who’s going to be mad at me for saying this: I don’t like that idea. I don’t like it. I think we need to move a little bit forward.” She went on to state Tubman is not “progressive” enough.

Tweets about Raven's comments

Social networking slammed arrogant Raven for her statements. This is another case of entertainers who start to believe their own hype and develop a sense of self-importance that far exceeds their actual contribution to society. Being an entertainer is not important in comparison to being a slavery or civil rights hero. If it were not for “progressive” heroes like Tubman, Raven as a black person, would not be on television today with a podium to spout this crud on a constant basis.

U.S. President Barack Obama Meets With China's President Jintao

U.S. President, Barack Obama, met with Chinese President, Hu Jintao, to discuss politics, economics and human rights. Obama is opposed to China's currency, the Yuan, remaining "artificially low" as his administration puts it, stating it grants an unfair advantage.

At the end of the day, both sides need to work together. President Obama must realize China is enjoying this time of unprecedented prosperity for their nation and does not want to do anything to tamper with that formula for success.

U.S. Congresswoman Shot In The Head As Gunman Opens Fire On Crowd

A 22-year-old schizophrenic college student, Jared Loughner, opened fire at Safeway Supermarket in Tucson, Arizona that was hosting a meet and greet, with U.S. Congresswoman, Gabrielle Giffords. The 40-year-old politician, who is married to NASA astronaut, Mark Kelly, was shot in the head and survived. However, there were six fatalities, among them, a 9-year-old girl. A federal judge, John Roll, was killed in the attack, making Loughner eligible for the death penalty.

Based on the videos Loughner posted to YouTube, one can safely deduce, he is an atheist, who is a paranoid schizophrenic. The videos make no sense, are full of existentialism and items regarding Loughner trying out to be in the U.S. military and resenting them giving him a mini "Bible."

Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly

Loughner choice of music, such as the satanic sounding rock track "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor" by Drowning Pool, testifies to his deteriorated mental state. He also speaks of "mind control" and "brainwashing" which is common among cults. He additionally complained about the economy and the U.S. dollar ("currency").

U.S. President Barack Obama condemned the incident in a White House press conference. The state of the U.S. economy is damaging the mental health of many Americans. According to a study published in November 2010, "1 in 5 Americans are suffering from mental illness" and over 6 million Americans contemplated suicide, as they are jobless.

Jared Loughner

The Judiciary Report has repeatedly emphasized the importance of not wasting opportunities to create jobs. The site emphatically warned before the stimulus money was distributed that the government should have tight reins on the funds, to ensure it was not stolen or squandered and that's exactly what happened due to lax controls (Obama Calls For Job Summit).

President Barack Obama

There have been a number of publicized incidents of violence and despondency, regarding Americans who have lost their jobs and homes. People are suffering and the government has not taken the proper precautions to ensure a speedy financial recovery. It's been a spate of meaningless press releases, touting empty numbers that do not fool analysts that know better. It's time to stop the charade and make the economy right.

Nearly 1 in 5 Americans had mental illness in 2009

CHICAGO, Nov 18 (Reuters Life!) - More than 45 million Americans, or 20 percent of U.S. adults, had some form of mental illness last year, and 11 million had a serious illness, U.S. government researchers reported on Thursday.

Young adults aged 18 to 25 had the highest level of mental illness at 30 percent, while those aged 50 and older had the lowest, with 13.7 percent, said the report by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration or SAMHSA.

The rate, slightly higher than last year's 19.5 percent figure, reflected increasing depression, especially among the unemployed, SAMHSA, part of the National Institutes of Health, said.

"Too many Americans are not getting the help they need and opportunities to prevent and intervene early are being missed," Pamela Hyde, SAMHSA's administrator, said in a statement... A copy of the report is available at: http://oas.samhsa.gov

Cost Of Obama's Latest Bill = $1 Trillion

Barack Obama

The price tag on President Barack Obama's latest initiative is ringing up at an enormous $900 billion dollars. The measure has passed in the Democrat dominated Senate and now faces the Republican led House of Representatives. As if the national deficit has not taken enough of a beating and toll on the economy. This latest sum is going to send it up even higher and damage the dollar and nation's international financial ratings.

U.S. Fed Botched A $120 Million Dollar Printing Job

Your Tax Dollars At Work, People!

The U.S. Federal Reserve, headed up by Chairman, Ben Bernake, botched a massive money printing job, costing U.S. taxpayer $120,000,000. Just look at all those zeros. The error occurred when someone at the Federal Reserve messed up the design of one billion dollars in $100 dollar bills. This resulted in a massive batch of bills being quarantined totaling $100 billion dollars in value.

The bills were said to contain a new security measure to foil counterfeiters, but it turns out the government only foiled itself in this mission. Smooth. Something tells me this job would have turned out better had they let Kinkos or the UPS Store do it.

Government can’t print money properly

Mon Dec 6, 9:36 am ET - As a metaphor for our troubled economic and financial era -- and the government's stumbling response -- this one's hard to beat. You can't stimulate the economy via the money supply, after all, if you can't print the money correctly.

Because of a problem with the presses, the federal government has shut down production of its flashy new $100 bills, and has quarantined more than 1 billion of them -- more than 10 percent of all existing U.S. cash -- in a vault in Fort Worth, Texas, reports CNBC. "There is something drastically wrong here," one source told CNBC. "The frustration level is off the charts."

The Move Behind The Dollar Dump

Barack Obama

Some do not understand China and Russia's move in dumping the U.S. dollar as its official international currency, but it was done out of apprehension at unwieldy Washington spending, corruption in the corporate sector and the government's unwillingness to clean it up, which is endangering other nations' investments in America.

For years the Judiciary Report has published articles imploring the government to clean up the corruption in the corporate sector or it would produce terrible international consequences. However, President Obama, like President Bush before him, decided to protect wealthy corporations and rich individuals that are campaign donors, to very negative results.

Imagine for a second that the U.S. government is a corporation, represented by a man that contacts you stating, he is from an investment company, seeking your capital (money). He begins a sales pitch requesting you invest your hard earned cash with his company.

He tells you his investments are safe and will earn you lots of money. Then, you see him go out and spend money recklessly on unnecessary things, whilst getting into unprecedented debt. Witnessing this, you decide to limit any further damage to yourself and get out while you can with what's left of your money.

When you invest with someone, you want to see them keeping overhead as low as possible and making astute and prudent business decisions. You do not want to see them indiscriminately throwing money all over the place, running up massive debt and trying to convince you to do the same, when economic history illustrates that does not lead to prosperity.

In short, this is what has been happening on the international stage. Former President Bush spent so much money and current Commander-in-Chief, Barack Obama, has spent four times that amount, adding trillions to the national deficit, alarming international governments and investors. In spite of all this spending, the U.S. economy is still in a sinkhole. There are no proven results or method to the madness, as the phrase goes.

China And Russia Dump The U.S. Dollar

Russia's Vladimir Putin and China's Premier Wen Jiabao

In a sad but foreseeable turn of events, China and Russia have dumped the U.S. dollar as their nation's international currency of choice. The U.S. greenback was universally accepted as the world's official currency. However, the global economic downturn that began in America in 2008, due to corruption and fraud in the corporate sector, has caused a number of nations to rethink their financial strategies, as a means of protection.

This news does not bode well for the dollar. For well over a year, the Judiciary Report repeatedly warned that excessive Obama Administration spending, coupled with the rampant fraud in the corporate sector, which the FBI and SEC refuses to clean up, would have disastrous effects. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

Obama Administration Devaluing The Dollar

Barack Obama

The Obama Administration has been slyly devaluing the U.S. dollar, during the current financial crisis, attempting to challenge China in the world of commerce. This is a bad idea. China's financial dynamic is completely different from America's, which enables them to keep their currency low.

They are the world's top exporter of goods and the cost of living and wages are lower than in America. Playing with the U.S. dollar or attempting to force China to increase the value of its currency, the Yuan, will not repair the financial depression in America.
