HFFT believes that Zeitgeist is one of the THE most important films you need to see to understand the history of The Fed and the sinister powers behind it.
ZEITGEIST has a new 48 minutes version you can watch on line. It is simply called ADDENDUM MOVIE.
It is imperative that you learn what is happening and link everyone you know to the ZEITGEIST documentary so that they too can understand the fraud being perpetuated upon America by the central private bankers.
Big ol' Hoosier Hat Tip to PROPERTY FREEDOM for posting the link to watch ADDENDUM on line.

Dr. Slogan's comments and blog links deserve a read
"Dr. Slogan" aka "Dr. Sanity" left some great comments today for us. I checked out the blogs he writes and thought they are worth mentioning. Who knows, maybe they'll become new favorites! --Melyssa for HFFT
DR SLOGAN WRITES:
This is the preview for things to come if Obama is elected.
It also higlights a major aspect of this election. It is not fact driven. It’s not that facts don’t matter. It’s that people who need to hear then the most (those who still don’t know how far-left Obama really is) don’t get these facts from the media. They don’t go to the blogs like this, they don’t read long data rich threads, they don’t watch scary YouTube kids-singing videos. We keep going down in polls because people listen to the huge propaganda machine–and take that BS at face value. What we need is an arsenal of conversation changers. These attention grabbers that make an impact in 5 sec. And THEN those whose opinions still can be changed may start reading more. Obama’s side if excellent in this. They have pros working around the clock on all sorts of visuals that go straight to the emotions level, bypassing the logic. Just take a look at this site to know what I’m talking about.
Can you name a single memorable anti-Obama poster that speaks to the center-leaning Democratic voter? I can’t. And to expose who Obama really is we need some of that. With my new blog and Facebook page I’ve started a new repository to fill this gap and hope it will take off and will be used. Your comments and suggestions are more than welcome.

HFFT made friends with taxpayer advocacy neighbor...Say HELLO MICHIGAN!
Another shout out to our new friends up in Michigan at the HELLO MICHIGAN blog!
The blog is edited by Rose a freedom loving citizen, mother and grandmother, who is fed up with our government's abuses of it's citizens. Rose does a great job keeping up on the issues and often brings issues to our attention we missed. She obviously dedicates a lot of her personal time for Liberty and we appreciate her work!
Take a look at the blog and offer your comments. It's important that we build relationships around the country that create well-networked alliances for Liberty.

Get over there and read PROPERTY FREEDOM blog!
HFFT would like to give a big shout out to Wayne Kirk for doing a major overhaul of the PROPERTY FREEDOM blog, which rocks these days!
We like the new look, the bold statement making graphics, the big fonts, and most of all the no holds barred criticism of the failure of The United States Government to promote peace and prosperity in America.
We recommend you put PROPERTY FREEDOM in your bookmarks and keep up with it a few times a week as new content is going up constantly.
We're adding to our blog roll and we hope you'll add it too!

BARACK OBAMA KIDS AND HITLER YOUTH SING FOR THEIR LEADER
Here's the video made back in August that disappears and reappears on You Tube. The children are adorable, but the message is chilling. Please remember that the children being put up to this propoganda likely do not have the intellectual capacity to decide if Obama's policies fit the world they want for their future or if his background qualifies him to be fit for the office of POTUS.
Obama even presented the video on his website for awhile.
I rather liked the Reason TV remix of video comparing the propoganda to communist Asia.
The kids are delightfully adorable. I just hate to think of the true reality of their future with Obama as leader.

The Guardian is reporting that WALL STREET MAY REFUSE BAILOUT!
It seems the chiefs at Wall Street aren't too happy about losing their fat salaries and golden parachutes in exchange for getting their bailout. The Guardian is reporting Wall Street might refuse the money!
If this is the case, exactly what will the Fed do with that money? You know they won't give it back to use after they stole it. It is rather obvious to all of America that the majority of Congress is against, not for, the American people.
Sounds like the traitors in Congress who signed on to this unpopular bailout were hoodwinked by Pelosi, Bernacke, Paulson, Bush, and pals.

Harassing & Intimidating Comments on this blog traced to a U.S. Congressional office
It was widely reported last week that an unprecedented number of emails were received by Congress from citizens in protest of the bailout causing an overload the equipment and was unable to handle the volume.
You would think that with Congress' bandwidth compromised, staffers in our Congressional offices would not be on line harassing citizens who run taxpayer advocacy blogs such as HOOSIERS FOR FAIR TAXATION. Unfortunately it appears between September 30th and October 3rd, a congressional staffer was doing just that.
On September 30th, I blogged that Obama's filthy fingerprints were all over the sub-prime mortgage crisis. That was the first day this blog received derogatory, intimidating, and harassing comments directed at me personally. I am a staunch supporter of the 1st Amendment and approved the nasty comments from "Dorendera", "MissAnnHater", and "Todd Plugg". You can read the comments mentioning my "slave" and "dildos" here. Not exactly the language we want to hear coming from Congress, is it?
The reason I require moderation of comments is to keep the blog spam free, not to stop free speech. I didn't think to check our stat tracker to see if I could trace who wrote the comments figuring they were from someone local still holding a grudge that I played a key role in removing Bart Peterson from office.
The comments persisted and showed up again when I blogged that the Obama Crimes website received 1.7 million hits. This time appearing under just one moniker, "Todd Plugg". Again I approved the comments to be published and didn't check the stat tracker to see who might be posting them. You can read the comments again here.
On Friday October 3rd to poster showed up again with the similar moniker "Tadd Plugg", with the same tone and message. I approved the message, but this time checked the stat tracker to see from where the message came. I was horrified to learn that the only person on the HFFT blog during the date stamped time of the message came from an IP at the United States Congress and from taxpayer owned equipment and bandwidth. You can read the comment here.
On this date between 5:24 pm and 5:35 pm only two individuals were tracked by our stat counter on this blog. They were my I.P. at my office computer and an I.P. at Congress labeled housegate34.house.gov 143.228.129.7.
To this unwise staffer, please know that I kept a screen shot of the stats in a time stamped email and plan to report the matter to our local FBI office on Monday. I've also notified friends in the press.
You've been caught and documented committing a crime from a Congressional office using taxpayer funded equipment.

After the Sub Prime Crisis already started in 2007 Obama says Sub Prime Mortgages that gave houses to people WHO COULDN'T AFFORD THEM was a GOOD IDEA!
Hat tip to Hoosier Access for posting this video which ties Obama's own words and his scoundrel advisors as culprits in the sub-prime mortgage meltdown which led to bank failures and ultimately the bailout of Wall Street.
The fix is in for Obama...or is it? By now everyone realizes we cannot count on mainstream media to report what they know. Maybe the blogs and talk radio hosts will get the word out.
Ordinary Americans are having to take into their own hands what the lame journalists in this country will not do. As far as I'm concerned the Gannett newspapers financial woes are their just desserts.

If you are old and try to kill yourself, Feds will forgive your mortgage debt
Take comfort dear comrades of the United Socialist Republic of America that if you are old, feeble, and you shoot yourself, Freddie/Fannie might go ahead and forgive your mortgage debt on your modest home.
Don't believe me?
Look they did it for Addie Polk of Akron, Ohio today.
Wasn't that compassionate of our overlords?

A red-headed bitch I love to read: "THE FAKE $700 BILLION BAILOUT RESCUE PLAN "
By: Devvy
October 2, 2008
© 2008 - NewsWithViews.com
Few things shock me anymore, I'm sad to say. However, Monday, September 29, 2008, was something to behold. Not only didn't the insidious "bail out" pass in the U.S. House of Representatives, but a substantial number of Americans put up such a ruckus, it had to have had a very chilling effect on the shadow government. As I watched the DOW tank to -777, I wondered why the Bush Administration's PPT (Plunge Protection Team) didn't step in and stop the dive. It occurred to me why the money cartel may have decided not to intervene. The American people would come home from work, already worried about the economy, see the stock market had tanked big time and panic.
Immediately following the vote, all the finger pointing began with what can only be described as behavior attributable to kindergartners. Pelosi went on record saying the Democrats would not pass this "end of the world legislation" unless they got "cover" from a bipartisan vote with a large enough number of Republicans. I kid you not, that's what this flaky female upchucked. Not to be outdone, millions by now have seen Republicans respond to allegations that some of them voted against the bill because of Pelosi's rancorous criticism of Bush and the GOP right before the vote.
Both sides began a propaganda campaign, aided and abetted by fact challenged media and cable news network hot shots like Bill O'Reilly and McCain pimp, Sean Hannity. Nazi Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, must be cackling from Hell. The mantra took on a form and text that has been virtually unchanged for three days as I write this column; it has been repeated by Obama and McCain shamelessly. As I write this, Obama is on the senate floor spewing the same propaganda: If this rescue plan doesn't get passed, small employers won't be able to make payroll on Friday. College students won't be able to pay tuition. Businesses can't borrow. Americans won't be able to buy a car or home. Commerce will stop. These key sentences have been repeated over and over and over.
Without question, the situation is bleak as thousands of us have written for years. Maria Bartiromo, CNBC financial expert (whose credibility came into question regarding her cozy relationship with Citigroup), stated on MSNBC, September 30, 2008, and I'm paraphrasing: Banks aren't lending and until the banks are "recapitalized," they won't loan. Couples with perfect credit will have trouble getting a home mortgage, never mind those with 'a problem.'
In other words, because these massive lending institutions and banks have been caught with cooked books and gross mismanagement, the American people must bail them out to "recapitalize," reward incompetence and perhaps even criminal activity. Americans who should never have qualified for home loans should be given special treatment at the expense of those who have never been able to buy a home (or don't want one), or who make their loan payments on time.
I called our federal credit union today to inquire about a car loan; I'm not buying, just doing research. They said they're loaning and happy to help me out. I called our federal savings bank to inquire about a home mortgage; I'm not buying, just doing research. Well, they certainly are making loans. I see Countrywide's current ads seeking home buyers. I have no doubt that credit has tightened up considerably, but banks and lending institutions are supposed to be cautious with depositors and stock holders money. If they make bad loans and bad decisions, like any other business, they fail. Yes, we're talking about banks here, but in a free market system which works best, government bail outs, while not only being unconstitutional, will never solve the problem.
While the majority of Americans are at work (or school) during the day and with time at a premium, many are not able to see anything other than the scare tactics we've seen this past week. While millions of Americans (Bravo!) hit the phones, faxes and emails to Congress, many more don't see the big picture or understand just how complicated the system has become: A behemoth bringing down our country, drowning we the people in debt. Please remember that while you and I and our children are "recapitalizing" these lenders and banks, the bad debt is still there. With this vote, the government is going to unconstitutionally buy all this used toilet paper.
Since my last column, the national debt has now risen above $10 TRILLION dollars. The people's purse is overdrawn in numbers most people can't comprehend, yet Congress is jumping out of their skin to write even more hot checks to bail out bad businesses and the list will continue to grow. Despite the new "loans" given the big auto makers last week from an empty treasury, the outlook is bleak: June 20, 2008. General Motors Death Watch 181: Bankruptcy. "Meanwhile, despite their political influence, the United Auto Workers will not be happy; the Mother of All Health Care VEBAs will not be funded. Period. The union will have to make do with what they have. DT figures the rest of the OPEB (Other Post-Employment Benefits) also face a grim, under-funded future."
Why the shrill insistence that "something" get done before Congress adjourns? Why the massive push to "cobble" together a bill before Congress goes out of session for a three month vacation? The DOW took a dive on Monday, but on Tuesday closed up 485, recovering much of the loss from the day before. While Congress was closed to celebrate the Jewish holiday, Rosh Hosana, the market worked on its own. Back on October 3, 2006, Michael Nystrom, penned an excellent piece titled, The Dow's Phony High, where he pointed out:
"But look beyond the headlines, and you see a different story. While the Dow hit a new high today, not a single of its component stocks did. Interesting, isn't it? The index is at a new all time high, but 70% of its components are down 20% or more!"
Where did this $700 billion dollar number come from? It's been repeated ad nauseum. When one considers these inept public servants (both parties) turned a blind eye until the problem blew up in their faces right before they were ready to adjourn for the year, don't they wonder how this $700 billion dollar price tag was suddenly thrown out there? Perhaps this will solve the puzzle for them:
"Our buddy from two lifetimes ago, Carl Lavin over at Forbes.com, points out a fascinating paragraph buried in a story on his web site late last week by Brian Wingfield and Josh Zumbrun.
"You know, this $700-billion figure that exploded into everyday political parlance almost as fast as Sarah? The $700-billion "cost" of resolving the financial crisis and restoring confidence and liquidity in the credit markets starting this morning?
"The $700-billion figure that Senate Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid first said he could really use McCain's help with, but then the Arizonan took him up on it and Reid suddenly said the Republican would only get in the way and anyway, Reid said, he already had a done deal, except he didn't and the Nevadan ended up being the embarrassed one?
"The $700-billion figure that won't really end up being anywhere near the actual cost because no one knows what all those mortgaged properties are really worth now anyway? Which is the whole problem in the first place because the institutions holding that paper don't know the value of what they're holding either, which is why everyone suddenly got so frightened?
"That $700-billion figure that won't really last because eventually the feds will sell off what they're buying and might even make a profit in the end as they did with the Chrysler bailout warrants years ago? You know where that very important $700-billion figure came from?
"Here's a quote from that Forbes story: "It's not based on any particular data point," a Treasury spokeswoman told Forbes.com Tuesday. "We just wanted to choose a really large number." They made it up to be sufficiently ginormous to frighten everyone into rapid action. And it worked."
A Treasury spokes mouth said the $700 billion dollar figure was made up. The number is fake! These elitists who run our lives believe in their arrogance they could simply pluck a big enough number out of the sky and the American people would swallow it out of fear. It sort of worked because as the old saying goes, You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
Headlines around the world the past week have screeched bank bail outs in many other countries blaming the U.S., and demanding our Congress pass this $700 billion dollar hoax. I don't think enough Americans understand just how convoluted and massive are the connections between the unconstitutional, privately owned "Federal" Reserve and other global financial institutions. How many Americans know this private banking cartel is being audited by another corrupt mega outfit called the International Monetary Fund --- unlawfully funded with billions annually from the sweat and labor of the American people: "In fact, the United States now supplies $27 billion of funds to the IMF at an annual cost to the taxpayer of $1.9 billion--an expenditure conspicuous by its absence in the Federal budget and a hidden element in our deficit and debt."[1]
Pretty neat magic trick since there's no money in the people's treasury. Every penny has to be borrowed from the FED and handed over to these international banker barons while you, me, our children and grand children will be forever saddled with the compounding debt. As if this dark comedy couldn't get any worse, these craven individuals who serve in one Congress after another, continue to "forgive" debt owed to we the people while they play their vile games (bold is my emphasis):
U.S. Forgives Iraq Debt To Clear Way for IMF Reforms
April 27, 2007
"Consistent with a plan arranged last month at a meeting of top industrialized nations, whereby the countries would eventually relieve approximately 80 percent of the debt Iraq is said to owe them collectively, Friday's move was the first among many planned to eventually forgive the bulk of Iraq's crippling debt burden. In exchange, Iraq will surrender its economic sovereignty to global financial institutions, provide foreign investors greater access to Iraqi natural resources, and increase investment opportunities for multinational corporations.
"According to the three-stage agreement reached last month at a meeting of the Paris Club -- an organization seating representatives of nineteen economic powers, including the United States, Japan, Russia and many European countries -- 30 percent of Iraq's estimated $40 billion (USD) debt to those nations is to be relieved outright, with no strings attached."
Come April 15, 2009, as you struggle to write that check to the IRS on top of what was stolen from you throughout the year in the scheme called withholding, remember where that money is going. Remember that a portion of what you work for today will be sent without any legal authority under the U.S. Constitution to fund these world banking conglomerates while you struggle to turn on the heat this winter and buy warm clothes for your family.
What is it? Basel II is a continuation of the first agreement reached between several countries:
The full title of the accord is Basel II: The International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards - A Revised Framework.
"Higher risks assets are moved to unregulated parts of holding companies. Alternatively, the risk can be transferred directly to investors by securitization, the process of taking a non-liquid asset or groups of assets and transforming them into a security that can be traded on open markets.
"Basel II has resulted in the evolution of a number of strategies to allow banks to make risky investments, such as the subprime mortgage market. Higher risks assets are moved to unregulated parts of holding companies. Alternatively, the risk can be transferred directly to investors by securitization, the process of taking a non-liquid asset or groups of assets and transforming them into a security that can be traded on open markets."
"The Committee's members come from Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. Countries are represented by their central bank and also by the authority with formal responsibility for the prudential supervision of banking business where this is not the central bank...
"The Committee encourages contacts and cooperation among its members and other banking supervisory authorities. It circulates to supervisors throughout the world both published and unpublished papers providing guidance on banking supervisory matters. Contacts have been further strengthened by an International Conference of Banking Supervisors (ICBS) which takes place every two years. The Committee's Secretariat is located at the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland."
Right now the IMF is putting pressure on Congress to approve this massive fraud and theft. A foreign entity demanding our Congress jump when they snap their fingers. The foundation for a world currency controlled by these operations, IMF, BIS, etc., has been underway for a long time and the blatant push for completion is now out in the open.
And, now for the kicker which I covered in a recent column. Please watch this eight minute video in which you will find out one of the hidden reasons for this massive push to get these bills pushed through: hundreds of billions of dollars will go to bail out foreign investors like communist China. This short video contains a brief segment from CNBC (1:46 seconds into clip) and you can bet key "leadership" in Congress, Obama and McCain all know the bottom line. Remember the headlines last week? China stops its banks from lending to U.S. banks. Either Congress pony's up or no more credit. How does it feel to be pushed around by the Reds?
The vote passed in the counterfeit U.S. Senate last night. (Roll call of votes here.) Not for the fake figure of $700 billion, but $850 billion dollars with loads of pork --- including funding for mental health issues! The final senate bill is over 400 pages; few senators had time to read it, but voted for it. Feinstein's office received 95,000 calls; 85,000 against the bail out, but she voted for it anyway. Why wouldn't she? Her and her husband, Richard Blum, are tight in the sheets with commie China.
After the vote, Sen. Harry Reid had the gall to hold a press conference to say "it wasn't a perfect bill." Once again, these incompetent public servants are handing we the people another dirty diaper to "hurry up and get it done" so the little guy on the street can borrow more money! He also said it wasn't a Democrat or Republican bill, but an American one. Cover their collective backsides by sharing the blame when this one blows up in their faces.
The House is expected to vote on their latest version of rape and pillage, Friday, October 3, 2008. Get on the phone and tell your House member NO. Every call counts until the vote in the House takes place. We have to stop the house because the flood gates are about to burst: "One of the individuals in the caucus today talked about a major insurance company -- a major insurance company -- one with a name that everyone knows that's on the verge of going bankrupt. That's what this is all about." Sen. Harry Reid, October 1, 2008; he then back tracked realizing what the big gap on the front of his face let loose.
And, don't forget to send a tube of cheap lipstick to your house member and counterfeit U.S. Senator who voted yes on this grand larceny. Send a deep red like hookers wear as they ply their wares on the street corner and send it to their district offices since Congress should adjourn for the year as soon as the house sells us out Friday (barring a miracle). Let them return to their district offices to tens of thousands of tubes of red lipstick. Get as many people as you can, call the media and make the delivery of the tubes of hooker lipstick a real event!

FED UP! U.S. Congressmen Quit! They have had it!
'NYT' Sunday Preview: Top Republican Quits Congress, Compares Party To 'Dog Food,' Wonders About Palin
By Greg Mitchell
Published: October 02, 2008 2:00 PM ET
NEW YORK Coming in this Sunday's New York Times Magazine: A profile of a former "star in the Republican party," Rep. Tom Davis of Virginia. As the heading has it: "Now, like dozens of his GOP colleagues, he's quitting Congress, fed up with his party, his president and the process."
In other words: "Tom Davis Gives Up," as the Times puts it.
The article by Peter Baker fashions Davis as "moderate" who is outraged by super-partisanship and the "social conservatives" who have "hijacked" the party. Davis's favorite line about the GOP is, "if we were a dog food, they would take us off the shelf."
Mocking an average day of meaningless bills before Congress he quips, "tell them about the important work we're doing while Rome burns." Baker (who met Davis 22 years ago) comments: "After 14 years in Congress, Tom Davis is giving up his place in the bucket brigade. Someone else will have to put out the fire. If anyone wants to try."
Davis calls the McCain-Palin ticket "a marriage of convenience. What are the negatives? What about her resume? I got through it in about 10 seconds. Does that hurt? He's the guy running on experience...And she's a heartbeat away." She does help with the "change" issue, he adds.
And aptly, in light of the start of the baseball playoffs, Davis, 59, cracks: "You know, the Cubs fans used to put the bags over their heads. That's what I feel when you say you're from Congress, because there are just so many things we're not doing."
The article points out that 26 Republicans are stepping down this year compared to only six Democrats. Many of he GOPers are moderates. "There's no question, we're a dying breed," says Rep. Jim Ramstad of Minn.
Hey guys...the Libertarian door is wide open. Sounds like you belong with us.

Senate passes bailout bill - If bill passes Congress you are all in debt forever
Here's the 451 page bailout bill they passed. It is shameful because it is impossible that each of them could have thoroughly studied a document that big before voting.
More details as they come.

Contacting Indiana Senate Candidate Steve Keltner
I received a letter from a woman who is diligently doing her homework on the Indiana Senate race coming up this election. She lives in Steve Keltner's district and seemed unhappy with Senator Lubbers representation in regard to our property taxes.
Steve is guest at a wine get together tomorrow night at Deano's.
Here is the letter that Steve wrote to her:
"Thanks for your attempts to be an informed voter!
My stand on property taxes has changed little in the last 2 years...They can be and must be eliminated. This was recently supported by Senators Waltz and Young at a fiscal committee meeting. However, even they have done a poor job in distributing the revenue. As I pointed out in my testimony at the same hearing, there are hundreds of taxes and fees that Hoosiers already pay (outlined in the Indiana Handbook of Taxes, Revenues and Appropriations). The needed funds can be spread out over those taxes and fees with little pinch on the pocketbook.
The General Assembly wants to distribute the revenue over 3 county level taxes. That will be very painful for Hoosiers. By limiting the scope of the solution set to 3 taxes, they set the resolution up for failure. The reasons for this a entirely political.
My problem with property taxes remains they require us to pay regardless of employment. Further it's based on no specific standard of assessment. Income tax forces you to pay a percentage of money you have earned. People on a fixed income can't come up with more. If they earned more they could pay more.
As I tell people, the 3/2/1 does not solve the problem but must be passed to start the process of taxpayer protection. It must be followed with a bill to eliminate the tax the following year. Thirty other states have adopted some form of taxpayer protection. Indiana has no intention of doing so.
Overall, the process has taken 2 years so far, but elected officials are starting to support my position. More will do so if I get elected.
Please contact me at any time with questions. We are having a little get together tomorrow evening. Please join us if you can so we might visit more. Event info: http://www.votekeltner.com/
Best Regards,
Steve Keltner
Candidate, Indiana Senate - District 30"

Senator John McCain supports senate passage of BAILOUT BILL CHOCKED FULL OF EARMARKS (the hypocrite)
Big hat tip to our commenter here who tipped me off to the earmarks. I've been sick today and have been listening on the radio, which makes me feel worse.
Michelle Malkin reports on the bailout bill which Glenn Beck's guest today said was as "big as a phone book".
So, they are going to ram through a bill as important as this, which is as big as a phone book, just as soon as the sunsets today on America.
Michelle Malkin's site has the skinny: Please read it.
Then please call your senators and call Senators McCain and Obama and tell them they lost your vote if they vote for this bill.
If this isn't reason enough to vote for a third party candidate or write in Ron Paul...then I don't know what is.
