Benghazi the story that will not fade away. Today on NEWSMAX Governor Huckabee states the obvious that there is a cover up in motion. All of this activity and drama around Petraeus getting laid is in my opinion a smoke screen, Many on the right seem to think that there will be instant revelations that take down the administration.
I personally think that by the time the steady drips of information Obama and his administration will get burned by what went down. I really think that the two CIA paramilitary men the former SEALS unexpectedly thrust themselves into some twisted plot and the whole thing went south when this happened. If your old enough to remember it took months to get to the bottom of Watergate. This investigation will take even longer since the leftist MSM carries the water for Obama but in the end it won't matter what happened is so outrageous the American people will want justice.
Benghazi is Watergate with a body count.

Budget Deficit over $120 Billion In One Month
If no one thinks that going over 6 billion a day in the red is a bad thing, I have a small bridge in New York that I'd like to sell you. All the MSM theatre on the fiscal cliff is just that acting and bull****. Since no one in Washington wants to take this problem seriously we can only expect high inflation and a huge economic downturn next year.
This will not end well, we will be lucky to be like Argentina was in 2002.

Israeli units fire on Syria
Things are really brewing up in the Middle East. Israeli tanks were used again today.
Here is a link to the article which has additional links. Hopefully we won't find out the hard way that all of the Iraqi WMD chemical munitions did end up in Syria

Non- Lethal Defense Idea's
I was asked the other day about thing's you can carry that are non-lethal but yet can give you the ability to escape a dangerous situation and run away. Two excellent items which I have been exposed too are a tactical flashlight and some really high end pepper spray.
A tactical flashlight is one that is designed for use by the military and police, they are generally made from aluminum and possess a very high out LED lamp, For use in a defensive situation you need an output of 120 lumens or brighter to temporally blind an attacker for the few seconds you need get away.
One of the best lights out there is the new Surefire P2X Fury with an output of up to 500 lumens. It’s little pricy but what price is your life? Below is a link to Amazon on the Fury and a link in the basics of using a tactical flashlight.

http://artofmanliness.com/2012/11/07/how-to-use-a-tactical-flashlight/
Another item is a high quality pepper spray, The one that I have found to be very effective is the Kimber Pepper Blaster, this unit offers two shot of OC pepper liquid that has a max range of around 12-13 feet. It discharges at over 90MPH so the liquid can get around even wrap around eyeglass lenses.I carry both of these at night all the time espically when I cannot carry concealed.

Today In Air Force History
This day in 1950 Corporal Harry J. Lavene who was a tail gunner became the first gunner to shoot down a Mig -15 over Korea while flying in a RB-29 Superfortress.
I wonder what this crew was thinking knowing that they had a high speed jet on their tail?
Coming To A City Near You
Today as Greece’s government narrowly approves new austerity measures that won’t be followed and will do no good kicking the economic can down the road, here are some shots of the protests in Athens conducted by two of the bigger unions during their 48 hour strike.
This story get very little play in the media her and is practically nonexistent on any of the MSM cable networks. As we slide over the economic cliff these scenes could be coming to a city near you. The reality is with our current economic situation it really is just a question of not if it happens but when.
I don’t agree with Ron Paul on a lot of things but economically the Congressmen is right on the mark. In an interview today he is quoted
"We're so far gone. We're over the cliff," he then added “People do not want anything cut," he said. "They want all the bailouts to come. They want the Fed to keep printing the money. And they don't believe that we've gone off the cliff or are close to going off the cliff. They think we can patch it over, that we can somehow come up with some magic solution. But you can't have a budgetary solution if you don't change what the role of government should be. As long as you think we have to police the world and run this welfare state, all we are going to argue about is who will get the loot."

Plast from the past, B-58 Hustler
I have always admired the B-58 Hustler it was to me just a bad ass looking aircraft. While it had one of the shortest in service life’s for a bomber (1960 – 1970) it was innovative in many ways. The B-58 was designed from the start as a supersonic bomber. It has many innovations including the first wide spread use of honeycomb construction and the use of a very unique ejection capsule to allow the crew to escape the aircraft at high altitude and Mach numbers.
The B-58 was powered by four afterburning General Electric J-79 turbojet engine like were used in the F-4 Phantom. It was manned by a crew of three, Pilot, Navigator and Defensive system operator sitting in a tandem type arrangement with each man in his own cockpit. The B-58 also had for its day very advanced avionics to include the Sperry AN/ASQ-42 bombing/navigation system combined sophisticated inertial navigation with the KS-39 astro-tracker to provide heading reference, and the AN/APN-113dopler radar to provide ground velocity and windspeed data, search radar to provide range data for bomb release and trajectory, and a radio altimeter. These systems together gave the B-58 a very accurate bombing capability.
The B-58 was normally armed with one nuclear weapon carried in the TCP two component pod slung on the centerline. The TCP allowed the weapon and extra fuel to be carried and gave the pilot the ability to jettison the lower half fuel cell to clean up the aircraft aerodynamically. The Hustler was capable of Mach 2 cruise at altitude, this capability was lost and its range was further limited as new low altitude penetration missions were undertaken do to the increased capability of Soviet SAM systems. In the end the Hustler was retired and replaced by the General Dynamics FB-111 that served SAC for many years until the wall came down.
Here are a few shots of the B-58 Hustler in action.

A day later
I’m absolutely stunned; I still can’t believe what transpired over the last 36 hours. What looked like a positive Romney move ended up with Obama getting elected. I knew Romney was doomed when the Ohio vote boiled down to the 4 major urban areas, there truly was no hope. The same thing goes for Miami-Dade and the Virginia I-95 corridor.
These voting patterns show a disconnect in these communities. I cannot understand why there are no real African American leaders speaking out on the inability of the Democrat party to improve their life. I know this is a result of 50 years of race pimps like Sharpton and Jackson screaming racism every 5 minutes and while shaking down major corporation’s but really when is enough, enough? The under 30 vote was also unbelievable, I guess being unemployed or underemployed with massive student loan debt, limited job prospects and living in Mom's basement is OK as long as those evil Republicans who want to protect innocent life and try to keep America safe are not in the White House.
Our founding fathers were right, when people know that they can vote themselves other people’s money that's it game over for our type of society. While the Romney/Ryan budget plan was vague at least they recognized the fiscal cliff and knew they needed to do something about it. The current administration and the majority of the fools in the House refuse to admit what reality is. Everyone with a 401K should have been woken up by Wall Streets reaction today. Most of us will have no choice but move out of stock funds to either bond or money market as the street will continue to bleed, these actions will only force the market even lower.
Everyone needs to educate themselves on what is going to happen with contained fiat printing and QE to infinity and excellent resource is
http://market-ticker.org/
The biggest problem I see is when the money/bond bomb does go off the FSA (Free Sh** Army) will suddenly see either massively decreased benefits or the inability to purchase basic need items because of inflation. The riots you will see here will be many time worse than what is going on on Greece and Spain right now.
If you can, purchase gold coins and pre-1964 silver coins, not as an investment but to preserve your purchasing power, also consider buying extra canned goods now and storing them away. This is also a hedge against the coming year’s food inflation. The USA with any uptick in bond rates could resemble Argentina in 2002-2003 in a matter of days. This is not a good scenario for anyone, it will make the shortages like we see in the Northeast right now look like Disneyland.
I don’t know who said it first but any industrial society like ours is really 9 meals away from anarchy.
Some other excellent resources are

Some folks will think that this is going overboard. I don't disagree but when the financial system goes south and it will, the government will not be there to hand you a ham sandwich.

Obama wins, USA loses
I’m beyond disappointed that Obama has been reelected. It shows how far we have drifted as a country from a group of God fearing, self-reliant patriots to a group of no ambition free shit army socialists. Romney was a decent candidate but when the vote in Ohio came down to the 4 major urban areas I knew it was game over.
So what do have to look forward to, well for guys that work with me a 3-4K increase in taxes Jan 1 as the Bush cuts sundown, an increase in unemployment as Obamacare and automatic defense cuts take over.
Three other questions loom large
1. What will Israel do? They now know that they will have to go it alone against Iran.
2. What will happen in Europe? Since our own fiscal crisis will loom large they are doomed.
3. How long till we hit the fiscal cliff? Fiat printing and Bernanke are destroying the dollar.
I suggest everyone take a look at their own circumstance, pay off debt, and begin prepping for economic chaos. Get your family ready too.
I still cannot believe that Obama has been returned I weep for my country because apparently we are more interested in reality TV than ensuring a successful future for our children and grandchildren.

2nd Amendment
A few choice quotes in regards to the 2nd amendment that guarantee's a the rest, ans a few observations on gun control and use.
"The Second Amendment isn't about hunting deer, it's about hunting politicians."
Congressman "B1" Bob Dornan
As John Steinbeck once said:
•1. Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you.
•2. If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics stink.
•3. I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.
•4. When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away.
•5. A reporter did a human-interest piece on the Texas Rangers. The reporter recognized the Colt Model 1911 the Ranger was carrying and asked him 'Why do you carry a 45?' The Ranger responded, 'Because they don't make a 46.'
•6. An armed man will kill an unarmed man with monotonous regularity.
•7. The old sheriff was attending an awards dinner when a lady commented on his wearing his sidearm. 'Sheriff, I see you have your pistol. Are you expecting trouble?' 'No Ma'am. If I were expecting trouble, I would have brought my rifle.'
•8. Beware the man who only has one gun. HE PROBABLY KNOWS HOW TO USE IT!!!

Sandy Aftermath
Hurricane Sandy wrecked havoc along the NJ and NYshores. What is really pathetic was watching the reports of New Yorkers dumpster diving for food just two days after the strike. Today we here of the seemingly total lack of response to Staten Island and emergency services still looking for bodies but Nanny Bloomberg is using resources to ensure the marathon can go on. You wish this was a dream or a movie but instead it is another example of piss poor planning and response by the goverment coupled with a population who for the most part is incapable of taking care of it's own. A few more days of this and the ongoing gas shortage I for one will not me surprised if there is pockets of civil unrest by Monday.
At the end of the day you must be able to take care of yourself and immediate family, not the 72 hours that FEMA talks about but for at least two weeks.
Here are some web resources that you can use to help you build a plan. Even if you are on a fixed income you can slowly build yourself up an emergency kit for you and your family.

Obama's False Optimism
Check out the Bob Krum blog and his analysis on the unfounded optimism of Obama supporters and next weeks general election. This is something I have been wondering about with with the trends being seen with the recent Gallup and Ramussn polls. An incumbent simply can't win if his ceiling is around 47%. Kevin Dejan at Hillbuzz also has some interesting information on this phenomena.
I personally believe it will be Romney in a landslide type situation. Obama internals must be tanking if he is sending plugs to Minnesota and buying more ads in supposedly safe Pennsylvania. Mitt is by no means the best candidate out there but for were we are with real inflation and real unemployment double or higher than the governments bull**** figures, he at least offers a different message than the failed hope and change perpetual campaign machine that we have all seen since inauguration day.
Here are the links.
