It appears as though the EU, in spite of all of the positive predictions and forecasts, is not out of the woods yet. Not by a long shot. Today, Portugal’s foreign minister, became the second minister in the last 24 hours to step down. Portugal’s finance minister, Vitor Gaspar, who implemented unpopular austerity measures as part of a 78 billion euro ($101 billion) EU-IMF bailout, stepped down on Monday. The coalition government appears to be breaking down, with the call for new elections. Like that will solve a damn thing.
Portugal is proof that the EU’s problems are far from over. Like Greece, it’s all about austerity. The people were simply promised more than the government could protect, and now they don’t want to (or aren’t able) to pay the piper.
Things are likely to become clearer on Wednesday when the opposition Socialists have requested a meeting with Portugal’s president. The banksters of the EU are already scoping out plans to establish a new social compact with the people of Europe. One where nobody, but the banksters themselves, will have a vote that counts. They will rule by fiat. Europe is already bankrupt and doesn’t know it.
Adios, pendejo’s!
When Europe goes down, like in the 30’s, so will we. We now, in all likelihood, have less than 90 days. That is, IF the Kenyan doesn’t get us in a major conflict between now and then. Egypt’s rolling over tonight, we’re on the wrong side, and we just pissed off the entire South American continent with more of our bullying (via Austria). We’re not going to have one single friend left, when Obama gets us ready for the kill.
What’s your guess?

Kenyan Plan “A”
1) Start a war in the Middle East.
2) Send lots of American troops.
3) Declare martial law in Amerika.
4) leave troops “stranded” overseas (out of the Kenyans way).
5) Use heavy-handed tactics on peasants.
Probable result:
Wake up to a BIG surprise, because 60-80 million armed Patriots ain’t gonna stand for this shit! Not to mention the large numbers of patriotic Military personnel (current serving and former) and Peace Officers that will honor their oath and step up to the plate.
Gets his ass kicked.
Plan “B”
1) Steal AF 1 and flee to Kenya, leaving family behind with an Obama phone and a SNAP card.
Unable to make speeches as he left his teleprompter behind, the Kenyan fades into obscurity. Comrade Odie is discovered to have drowned himself in the Naval Observatory toilet. “Stretch” is found in his upstairs bedroom, face down, clad only in a clown mask and clutching a riding quirt.
Reports filter back to the North American continent of a man dressed in a Lion skin loincloth panhandling for shillings on a street corner in Nairobi, claiming the money is needed for community organizing efforts in his local village.
Back in the U.S. the media reports what few members are left of a mysteriously missing Congress announce someone should launch an investigation into the theft of millions of rounds of ammo from DHS bunkers and huge amounts of hemp rope taken from several local hardware stores.
The Secretary of State could not be reached for comment, her office states her whereabouts is unknown.
More on the weather after this break.

Wildflower I don’t think we are far from it my friend. Remember what Chief Dan George said in the movie “Outlaw Josie Wales”?
“Hell has come to breakfast”.

Was he like Paula Deen? Oh! You said Chief!
Thanks for the sticker!
BTW, do you think (of all of the possible responses) that we could be making worse foreign policy decisions lately? We are batting zero. The only way this could happen, is on purpose.
