jyi # 68A Women Rule The World

The feminine (x), through the collective feminine (all the x-es in women [xx] and men [xy]), rules the world. But the feminine, woman, does so through men. When men are not being men, but -like today- ever-lazier, irresponsible, effeminate and emasculated, you can bet that the collective feminine is at work. Both reacting against such and causing it to worsen -by making women try to become men and making more men and women "become" gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgenders and worse- for its own purposes.. The GLAAD... group (along with ALL men and women, to a greater or lesser degree) can well be termed -in today's politically correct terms- sexual-identity challenged.
Below is a continuation of a sub-series on my blog (jewsyonkersislamiii-tc.blogspot.com) : dissatisfaction with the status quo and quite likely civil war coming within the US
Further below are comments on today's news and some articles, AS I HAVE EDITED THEM , including some excerpts from my journal, my blog or my musings of more than a few years ago. And a critique of today's news
Dissatisfaction with the status quo ; LIES ; OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS ; Gay Marriage (FILTH, ROT, NONSENSE, PERVERSITY..., JUST LIKE HOMOSEXUALITY) ; CA. NUKE LEAK ; CHILD SEXUAL MOLESTATION ? A RESULT OF FEMINIST-FAGGOT ROT ; excess and unafordable health care costs ; Koch brothers pledge $100 million to beat Obama (they are conservatives, which I am. But they are oilmen, no longer good ; "coming out" as gay ? ridiculous -as human being maybe, but homosexual acts are wrong YET FEMINIST-FAGGOT ROT CONFUSES EVERYONE - and leaves no way to become self-disciplined or contented ; World economy slowly topples because of feminist-faggot rot, filth and bullshit ; an industry that's always seeking to push the envelope.-fashion- is a feminist-faggot and revolting one that must be crushed ; feel-good segment gone wrong (Obama and Clinton in Libya...)

THE HUMAN RACE IS FACING MAJOR -AND DAILY WORSENING- CRISES TODAY, CRISES THAT THREATEN TO MAKE THE RACE EXTINCT IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE., AS ALL THINGS COME TOGETHER AT ONCE
New York Times (NYT), A22, B5, B7, A23 Hungary, Mexico and Finland will lose 4000 jobs as Korea and China gain some or all. Greek debt talks are "stalled". "Germany's Hidden Weaknesses" ? It cant afford to bail out Greece or Europe. US House Republicans, on the payrolls of major oil companies, are absolutely disgusting. We need to put the oil, gas, coal... and the bloated medical-pharmaceutical industries out of business.
NYT, A9, A7, A8 Iran reacts -so far only with words- against sanctions. Egypt is prosecuting US NGO workers for getting involved with Egypt's politics. If so, my question is, who the hell said that the US democratic system is good worldwide ? It isn't even working well in America today. Libya continues to descend into chaos because of Obama, Clinton and all the other feminists and faggots and their "good intentions" that are making everything daily worse. A top Chinese crime fighter apparently tried to defect to the US. And such can only mean that China's government is controlled by organized crime.
NYT, A12, B9, A23, JN, 12A, Catholic New York (CNY), p.11 Birth control is covered and GOP vows to fight it. Doctors are not always honest ? Shit, the whole greater medical-industrial complex in America is excessively dishonest ans self-seeking. "Obama advisers raise forecast for jobs", but they are all liars. You cant trust one of them (see below). Led at the top by a top US lawyer, the President, they are uniformly slimy and amoral (which is what the US legal profession and lawyers are today, from top to bottom, ), pushers of feminist-faggot filth, rot, perversity... The "White Underclass", 30 % of whites, is as bad as -indeed, worse than- the black underclass, if only because there are more of them. And this is so because of 60+ years of feminist-faggot rot, excess, filth, perversity... 44 % of births are to unwed mothers. The faggots and the feminists must be squashed by a huge steamroller. Marriage "to a woman you care for" is the key to everything - as is well known to "modern criminality". US Sen, Daniel Patrick Moynihan was right in 1965 when he warned that the ongoing decline of the black family -because of feminist-faggot excess- would spread to white families as well. Adequate "social policy" -which we dont have today, thanks to Obama and all his ilk, feminists and faggots- could well be likened to religion. But today our only "religion", one supported by the state, one which is therefor unconstitutional, is feminist-faggot "secularism". "Opportunity" is the only adequate common goal, one we do not have today because of that same feminist-faggot "secularism". Obama the faggots and the feminists are to be blamed for the oncoming civil war in the US. We need religion, ALL religions, but not the radical ones, as one of my sons observed - indeed, they must be crushed. The "assault on" religion and morality -as organized and carried out by the feminists and faggots- must be crushed, along with the feminists and faggots. Improving "health care for women" does not come from abortion or any other bit of feminist-faggot rot as pushed by the bloated and greedy feminist-faggot rotted medical profession.

MY JOURNAL/BLOG
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivors (and I am one) share many life-long disabilities and resulting behaviors (as do I), including :
Aggressiveness : From frustrations, anger (from losses), impulsivity, lack of ability to modulate responses, lack of awareness of social context/environment, awareness of others...
Inappropriate sexual behaviors : Lack of social cues, impulsivity, disinhibition, lack of knowledge about what is appropriate (and we dont learn from experience), separation of thoughts and feeling from action, atttention-seeking...
Non-compliance, lack of participation : memory, self-esteem, lack of organizational and planning skills, fatigue, distractability (indeed, such and similar are responsible for TBI survivors being thought ego-centric) ...
Impulsivity : stimulus-bound behaviors, lack of control, neurological damage (such as the scar on my brain)
Lying-making up stories, Confabulation, Name-calling : memory, self-esteem
Safety awareness, dangerous behavior (to the survivor personally as well as for others) : impulsivity, poor judgement, sensory processing (doesnt work well), distractability, lack of concentration (kind of hard when you are continually "flooded" with outside information -like others' thoughts, feelings...as well as your own mind's continuous presentations)
Poor Grooming and Hygiene : self-esteem, organization and planning, social cues, awareness of others
Problem Behaviors and Organic remnants such as what they call my thoughts : Organic Delusional Disorder (ODD) :
Symptomatic, "primary" : these are organic and thought to be typically associated with the early and middle stages of "recovery"
Neurophysiological : Limbic kindling, perceptual disturbances, frontal lobe syndromes (which is how they describe me - and I work damn hard to bolster their descriptions)
Electricophysiological : Partial complex seizures, Temporolimbic syndrome (both of which bother me - which is why I need daily physical exercise and exertion)
Neuropsychiatric : mood disturbances (I am hypomanic, I think - always cheerful), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (for me that means I am "persevorative", meaning I persevere in what I'm doing despite all kinds of obstacles [not that I necessarily "know" what I'm "doing"] ; indeed I have persevered so since I became a lawyer in 1975 - and I have done so [whatever I'm "doing"] since my TBI), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Functional "secondary" : these are learned components (adaptations and compensatory strategies) typically associated with later stages of recovery and include : Escape/avoidance, attention, acquisition and sensory
"Neuropsychologist" About people emerging from comas (most never do) and how comas (I lay in a 40 day coma when I was 14, nearly 50 years ago, after my TBI) are not like sleep
In the New York Law Journal of 2-28-91, the notice of my suspension from the practice of law was published and I quote and comment on it and some of the psychobabble used to justify my suspension. "Immediate and indefinite" suspension based on my actions (including written materials) over the preceding 10 years (from 1981 ?). Also based on an "independent psychiatrist's" report. In truth, the psychiatrist -and the legal profession itself- was outclassed, as it is today. For I have been playing a game with it (in which I am being played as much as it is) with the legal profession itself as the butt of a huge and satirical joke. "Mental Infirmity" ? My persevoration, as noted above. "Unsolicited writings", "rambling", "incoherent", "vulgar", "racist remarks and lewd references (in truth I will destroy feminists and faggots for I despise them)", "danger to the public (the legal profession is the real "danger")", "from inappropriate extremes of elation to more subdued and reasonable states in short periods of time (see above about TBI survivors)", "mood elevated and expansive (see above)", "irritable at times(because no one believes me)", "speaks rapidly with a definite flight of ideas, the flow and content of which is alarming, blaming the ills of the world and of the Disciplinary Committee on (feminist-faggot rot and that)...women should stay home and care for their husbands and children...exercised poor judgement, used inappropriate remarks, has a tendency to act out...is a threat to impede the administration of justice"

NEW YORK (AP) — On a chilly winter afternoon, Andrej Pejic settles into a Manhattan cafe with a cup of Earl Grey tea, sitting gracefully, long legs crossed. The blue-eyed fashion model gazes out a window, unaware that almost every man sitting at surrounding tables is transfixed.
A man in a black leather jacket walks up to the window, presses his face against the glass and kisses it. Pejic giggles and admits: "I find it flattering."
The admirers are likely unaware that the beautiful blonde is actually a man.
As Fashion Week gets under way in New York City, Pejic is one of the most recognizable — and controversial — faces in the industry. He's the only top-tier fashion model who can walk down the runway as either a man or a woman. And his androgynous beauty has turned him into a trendsetter in an industry that's always seeking to push the envelope.
"He's just this beautiful thing that everyone wants a piece of," says stylist Ken Anderson, who dressed Pejic for a German magazine cover.

Despair in the air at Davos (THOSE IN THE KNOW KNOW)
By Peter Lee

Chinese heavy hitters did not make it to the World Economic Forum at Davos this year. Apparently, spending Lunar New Year at home was more important than huddling with the West's movers and shakers in the Alps.

Those Western guests in Switzerland were, well, shaking as they confronted a crisis of confidence - and they are reaching out to an unlikely savior: the absent Chinese.
...............................
the lords of Davos declared that capitalism itself was in crisis.

........current form, no longer fits the world around us." [1]

the game (IS) over for the type of capitalism that many of us have lived through and thought was the best type of capitalism. [2]

.....................

If the global retreat of capital-unfriendly national social welfare and regulatory policies - and the rise of the austerity-uber-alles solicitude toward the interests of bondholders in the middle of the global economic downturn - are any guide, capital is stronger, freer, and more powerful than ever. (BUT IT IS FAR WORSE THAN THAT. THE HUMAN RACE HAS NO ADEQUATE COMMON GOALS - AND WE ARE HEADING TOWARDS NEAR-TERM EXTINCTION OF THE RACE WITHOUT THEM)
.......................


What isn't doing OK is capitalism's political handmaiden, globalization: a tenet of free-market economic theory, almost an article of religious faith, meant to reassure the rest of us that the interests of nations and their citizens can be synonymous with the interests of globalized capital. (NOT NECESSARILY SO)
......................
Financial capital is free to travel the world in search of optimal returns; but human capital isn't. The theoretically correct solution requires an effective dissolution of national sovereignties so we can all turn into pure economic nomads, pursuing free market bliss across our global field of dreams.
(OR ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT WHICH WILL PURSUE THE SURVIVAL OF THE HUMAN RACE)
....................



Certainly we're a long way from a situation in which tens of millions of Chinese vote with their feet and dollars and flood into the United States ..............
That reassuring assumption in the West... is running in the opposite direction.

Thanks to colossal financial and fiscal mismanagement and political gridlock, Western economies are struggling with problems of their own devising.....................
.......................

New York Times columnist and Nobel economics prize winner Paul Krugman (A LEFT-WING FEMINIST-FAGGOT MORON) may fulminate about the distortions..............

......................

One of the disappointments of Davos so far this year is that I've not yet heard a single policy maker, banker or business leader make the case for the sort of radical deregulation and supply side reform vitally necessary in Western economies to kick start investment and growth (BULLSHIT - WE NEED ADEQUATE COMMON GOALS, NOT MORE FEMINIST-FAGGOT FILTH AND ROT).
.....................
But advanced economies are finished unless they relearn some of the free market disciplines from which they sprung.
..........................


The root of the world's problems, according to Warner, isn't trickle-down economics; it's trickle-up democracy. In other words, the 1% had better forget about democracy and look toward an authoritarian regime, China, where the 1% is free to run the country as it sees fit. (TOUCHE')


....................



In recent years, the whole world has witnessed China's high-speed economic growth. (THE PROBLEM IS THAT CHINA SUCCEEDED BECAUSE THE WEST BOUGHT ITS PRODUCTS - AND THAT NEITHER IS NOR WILL BE THE CASE ANY MORE)
................



For years, Western governments have deluded and consoled themselves with the idea that China's mixed capitalist/command economy was doomed to collapse. Maybe it is. But vindication may come too late for the Western democracies that uncritically hitched their wagons to global capital's cold and distant star.


Zakaria: Reflections on a gloomy Davos
By Fareed Zakaria, CNN
The atmosphere at Davos this year was very different than usual. In the many years I've been attending the conference, there has always been a star: A country that was newly reforming and doing well would send its finance minister or prime minister and everyone would be wowed. There would be a year of Turkey or a year of India.
But this year there was no sense of optimism about any model country. Instead, there was uncertainty. People worried about the U.S. economy (even though U.S. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner made a pretty good case that the U.S. was bouncing back in the Davos plenary session, which we aired on GPS and can be seen in the video above). There was uncertainty about how strong the recovery was and whether the U.S. would be able to overcome its medium-term deficit issues.
U.S. concerns were overshadowed by European concerns. Although people thought the Europeans were dealing with the crisis management pretty well, there was deep uncertainty about the long term future of the entire European model. There was a sense that Greece would never be able to pay off its debts and that there’d be a massive restructuring. People asked what Europe would look like after that restructuring. One of the delegates said to me, 'At the end of the day, the Greeks and the Italians will never become Germans. The question is: Can we have a Euro Zone that encompasses both?'
There was even a great deal of uncertainty about something that has been taken for granted for the last decade - the strength and vitality of the emerging markets. People were concerned about whether China had over-expanded during this recession - whether it had eased up on credit too much and whether its stimulus program had been too far reaching, producing everything from property bubbles to inflation to an unsustainable rise in wages. There was concern about whether China would be able to pull back and, if it did, what the effect would be on social stability. The Indian delegation was very gloomy because the politics of India are paralyzed and world trade seems to be declining quite significantly. Brazil's economy contracted last quarter. Everywhere, the certainties of the past had given way to a great deal of unease.
If there was one ray of hope, it was Africa. I had dinner with African heads of states, senior officials, and business leaders. They were bullish on Africa. They felt that politically they were doing better than they had before. Democracy was getting more entrenched. One of them pointed out to me that years ago The Economist had a cover that read, “Africa: The dark continent”. Last month, The Economist had a cover that read, “Africa Rising: The hopeful continent.” The delegate said those covers represent the transformation of people’s views of Africa. In a Davos filled with gloom, I was surprised to find the one note of optimism coming from the most unlikely spot.



The older gay brother of Tyler Clementi, the Rutgers University freshman who took his own life in 2010 after his roommate used a webcam to secretly tape him having sex with another man (REVOLTING), says the grief of his brother's death is still at times "overwhelming." H....
"It's been very bittersweet, I guess," 26-year-old Clementi said. "And I have really conflicted feelings about it. You know, I've always -- all my life I've dreamt of being open with my parents. And this is not the way in which I would have wanted that to come about. I feel a lot of guilt about the sacrifice that was made just so that I could be accepted by them. I don't think that that's the right way that it should have ever happened."


WASHINGTON -- At a private three-day retreat in California last weekend, conservative billionaires Charles and David Koch and about 250 to 300 other individuals pledged approximately $100 million to defeat President Obama in the 2012 elections.
A source who was in the room when the pledges were made told The Huffington Post that, specifically, Charles Koch pledged $40 million and David pledged $20 million.

LOS ANGELES — A tiny amount of radiation could have escaped from a Southern California nuclear power plant after a water leak prompted operators to shut down a reactor as a precaution, but plant workers and the public were not endangered, officials said Wednesday. (CAN YOU TRUST THEM, VESTED INTERESTS THAT THEY ARE, MINIMIZING THINGS LIKE THE NUCLEAR PLANT OPERATORS...IN JAPAN ?)
The leak was detected Tuesday afternoon in Unit 3 at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station, about 45 miles north of San Diego. The seaside plant was taken off line while investigators tried to determine what happened.
Ben Bernanke: 'The Elephant In The Room Is Really Health Care Costs'
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke warned Thursday that rising health care costs must be curbed if the U.S. government is to reduce the federal debt to sustainable levels.
"We need a much broader set of policies," Bernanke said at a House Budget Committee hearing. "The elephant in the room is really health care costs."
..............................
Americans' health care spending in 2008 was triple what it was in 1990, according to a separate Kaiser report. The report noted that health care technology has become more state-of-the-art, driving up costs, and that chronic diseases have become more common as Americans live longer.
Bernanke said that even eliminating discretionary spending altogether would "still not solve the problem," and that raising taxes on the rich would not do nearly enough. He said that Congress needs to focus on the long term.
"The biggest problems we have are beyond the next decade," Bernanke said. "They stretch out in the next 20 to 30 years."
He noted that federal spending on health care costs is projected to rise to more than 9 percent of the United States' gross domestic product in 2035, from 5 percent of GDP in 2011.
"These structural fiscal imbalances did not emerge overnight," Bernanke said. "To a significant extent, they are the result of an aging population (THAT DOESN'T EXERCISE ENOUGH, RELYING ON PHARMACY COMPANIES TO "MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER") and, especially, fast-rising health care costs, both of which have been predicted for decades."
He also warned that cutting spending too much now could harm the recovery. "'Do no harm' is a very important piece of advice I would offer you," he told the congressional committee.
The U.S.' national debt now tops $15 trillion, according to usdebtclock.org. The federal government needs to save $4 to $6 trillion over the next 10 years in order to place itself on a sustainable fiscal path, Bernanke said.
Gay Marriage Decision Praised by Psychological Group
(AND I DENOUNCE THIS GROUP FOR ITS FEMINIST-FAGGOT BIAS ; MEN [XY] AND WOMEN [XX] ARE NOT, NEVER HAVE BEEN AND NEVER WILL BE "EQUAL, THE SOURCE OF ALL THIS NONSENSE ABOUT GAYS)
Stephanie Pappas, LiveScience Senior Writer
Date: 07 February 2012 Time: 03:16 PM ET
The American Psychological Association praised a newly released court decision from California today (Feb. 7) that declared the state's same-sex ban unconstitutional.
The ban, known as Proposition 8, is a ballot measure banning same-sex marriage in California that passed by 52 percent in 2008. The measure came after the California Supreme Court struck down two anti-gay marriage laws five months earlier, effectively legalizing same-sex marriage in the state. (TO SAVE THE HUMAN RACE FROM NEAR-TERM EXTINCTION, WE MUST CONDEMN AND RE-CRIMINALIZE HOMOSEXUAL ACTS)
The APA, the largest professional organization for psychologists (FEMINIST-FAGGOT LUNATICS ALL), has long supported same-sex marriage. Today, the organization put out a statement cheering the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling upholding a U.S. District Court's 2010 decision to overturn Proposition 8. (Same-sex marriages have been on hold in California as the legal challenges work their way through the system.)
"Research shows that marriage provides important health and wellness benefits and that same-sex couples are similar to heterosexual couples in essential ways, including the fact that they are just as likely as opposite-sex couples to raise mentally healthy, well-adjusted ("MENTALLY HEALTHY", "WELL-ADJUSTED" ? THEY DONT KNOW THEIR ELBOWS FROM THEIR ASSES ; SEE MY BLOG AS TO WHY) children," APA President Suzanne Bennett Johnson said in a statement. "There is no scientific basis (SCIENCE IS AN ASS, JUST LIKE THE LAW. IT ABSTRACTS -THUS LIMITS- FROM THE WHOLE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THEIR BIASES AND PREFERENCES ; THEIR MINDS ARE MADE UP BEFORE THEY DO "SCIENCE") for denying marriage equality to same-sex couples."
Research ("RESEARCH" BE DAMNED ; IT IS AS BIASED AS THOSE DELUDED OLD WOMEN) has shown that children of gay parents turn out just as well as children of straight parents. Kids with two lesbian mothers, for example, have similar levels of academic achievement and well-being as well as similar numbers of friends as kids with two heterosexual parents, according to a 2010 review of research. (ALL BIASED BY OUR PRESENT-DAY FEMINIST-FAGGOT WORLD-VIEW)
Public opinion may be echoing scientific opinion. In May 2011, the Gallup polling agency reported for the first time that more than half of Americans support same-sex marriage. Surveys revealed that 53 percent of Americans were in favor of marriage rights for gay couples, a 9-point increase over the previous year.
The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court decision announced today could be appealed, either to a larger judicial panel on the Ninth Circuit or directly to the U.S. Supreme Court. Same-sex marriages will not resume in California until after the deadline for appeal passes; if an appeal is filed, such marriages will remain on hold until a higher court makes its decision.

These Numbers Only Make Sense, If You're Obama
(LIES, LIES AND MORE LIES ; OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATS)

The Invis
week, the White House claimed that unemployment dropped for the fifth consecutive month to 8.3 percent, the lowest it has been in nearly three years after adding 243,000 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

I'm telling you right now that these the figures have been manipulated and that the significant drop in employment was because of the fact that the federal agency charged with computing key economic data has significantly decreased the number of Americans in the workforce.

If you hold the workforce participation rate constant over the past year, unemployment would be about 9.3 percent instead of 8.3 percent, So it is a weird number that is out there, and I think people have to be looking at that carefully.*******************



The same Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) report that showed unemployment dropping to 8.3 percent showed total workforce participation the number of people either working or looking for work declining by 1.2 million people in one month. This is easy to explain in that 1.2 million seasonal employees (Christmas workers) gained employment during the holidays and it is here where the skew takes place.

............By reducing the number of workers in the overall workforce, the Obama administration can show actual unemployment dropping, when, in fact, improvements has been non-existent at best.

Many economists feel the official statistics seriously underestimate how bad the unemployment situation really is. They maintain that the key measure is the number of people who would like to have a job, but can’t find one.

...................

Dropping them off the employment calculations keeps the unemployment rate substantially lower than it would be otherwise and has been key to the imagined unemployment numbers during the past year, and it appears that the people not in the labor force exploded by an unprecedented record 1.2 million, the fact that BLS is skewing records in claims about the shrinking workforce. The most recent unemployment number was based on the assertion that the entire U.S. workforce has shrunk to a 30-year low.
(LIES, LIES AND MORE LIES)
An analysis of the Washington Times shows the labor force as a percentage of the available population hit 66 percent in October 1988, and remained there throughout the presidency of George H.W. Bush. It then reached 67 percent or better for 40 straight months during President Bill Clinton’s presidency, and was above 66 percent for virtually all of President George W. Bush’s presidency.
CEO Charles Biderman

But by the end of President Obama’s first year in office, it had dipped to 64.6 percent, before dipping to just 63.7 percent last month — its lowest point in more than thirty years.

One analyst who is stridently critical of the BLS numbers is TrimTabs.com CEO Charles Biderman. His firm uses what he considers a more modern and timely measurement, actual tax receipts to the IRS, to calculate employment.

By his firm’s calculations, the economy added only 44,000 jobs in January, not even enough to keep the unemployment rate from growing.




The BLS numbers "are just guesses,” Biderman said. “I don’t know whether they’re politically motivated or not." The White House is doing "cartwheels" over the positive jobs numbers being promulgated from the BLS, the Christian Science Monitor says.
.......................
"These numbers will go up and down in the coming months, and there's still far too many Americans who need a job or need a job that pays better than the one they have now,” President Obama said. “But the economy is growing stronger.”

“The definitions have not changed . . . if someone is not actively looking for work for the four weeks preceding the reference week, they’re not in the labor force,” he says. “That was true years ago, and it’s true today.” (DOUBLETALK ?)




(CNN) -- Beneath Rick Santorum's stunning three-state sweep on Tuesday stands another stubborn sign of dissatisfaction with the status quo: Republican turnout is down.
I'm talking embarrassingly, disturbingly, hey-don't-you-know-it's-an-election-year bad. It is a sign of a serious enthusiasm gap among the rank and file, and a particularly bad omen for Mitt Romney and the GOP in the general election.
