Steak:

the land grab is marching into place in Texas ....

Patriot and company can cheer Bush all they want but they have
no clue how bad this country is fucked:

57 pg CFR docs
Our borders are Offically gone in 2010
The dollar is gone .. AMERODOLLAR is on the way!!
Goodbye to our Trucking Industry ... and that is why Bush is so lax
with letting trucks roar into this country with no obstruction from Mexico

Love how Cheney ran around touting how well things are when his ass
has 25 mill tied up in the EURO Bond market

2010 a lot of documents world wide kick in (Euro-Med, NAU, etc) and
easy to see we are heading into some "entertaining" times
