California Budget Cuts

By Patrick McGreevy and Michael Rothfel

Reporting from Sacramento — Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and lawmakers scrambled Wednesday to avert a financial meltdown, and public officials across California braced for annihilating cuts on the day after voters trounced their leaders’ rescue plan for the state.

Within two hours of returning from Washington, D.C., the governor huddled behind closed doors with Democratic and Republican legislative leaders to grapple with a projected $21.3-billion budget shortfall for
the coming fiscal year and stop state government from running out of money by July.

  1. @US Marine: thank you for your post specifically directed to me….I apologize for misconstruing your comments. IMHO after a lengthy study one can deduce a common thread permeating the many historical events we tend to call history. It may be those orgainizations you name or it may not be…I am not familiar with the Vanunu statements. Regardless, you will find throughout the web many investigative sites that will validate your assumptions. I read Catherine’s blog because her Solari organization offers a humane direction away from the core genecidal madness that the MSM and the basic established order dictates as “real”, Secondarily because I too have had a confrontation with federal authority that was unpleasant to say the least. I grew up in America where it is one’s duty to question authority. In closing since this is Memorial Day I give honor to you for your service to this country( I personally am not a veteran; although my father served 6 years in the British 8th under Field Marshall Montgomery ).warm regards, Richard( theoldwiseman)

  2. @Former US Marine: After some rest I want to again thank you for your passion toward uncovering the truth as you see it. I appreciate the internet as a communication device more and more. I look back at the destruction of the libraries @ Alexandria and wonder what exactly those scrolls held. Today we have a “fictional” Tom Hanks movie about the hidden/lost scrolls of Gospels ( the gospel of Mary??) and what might be in them…the prior movie suggested a locaton for the Holy Grail…or at least it suggested a ( Merrevingin )”bloodline”…Well this is not new…lots of research has been written before. As for the “secret societies”; YES, they are many, and Catherine does not voice any details except as she explained: when she has personal knowledge…I on the other hand find that I believe in a common thread…be it intergenerational families, corporate/government interlocking directorates, or other covert organizations ( you name the Vipers ) and clearly journalist Mr. Seymour Hersh has recently retracted his recorded statement that Ex-VP Cheney controlled a cadre of rogue “assassins” from his office…Catherine refers to the NSA Act of 1947, and the CIA Act of 1949 as legislation that gave these agencies unbridled access to any government budget and thus numerous “black ops” were covertly funded by many unrelated agencies ( as Catherine brings to light in her many articles…ie:drug money,prisons and HUD)…Whistleblowers are everywhere. Just ask Sybil Edmonds!!! And yes it seems that JFK was our last hope for a truly American president…I always refer to Henry Kissinger who is quoted to have said: “Power is the ultimate aphrodesiac”…There may be a parallel universe where these folks see the masses as “useless eaters” as such…and that you and I have no intrinsic value…As we write today…the precipice approaches closer as the western ( Anglo/American/Dutch) financial model may be in it’s last throws…expect lots of thrashing…The fractional reserve banking model( now on steroids!!!) of the west versus the forbidden usury model of the Moslem world will be a major obstacle IMHO to remedy or rectify…There are forces at play that we, mere citizens, might possibly discover when it is nearly too late to bring force to prevent…I favor an America where people like former AG Ramsay Clark have a say. I generally tell folks: “I love America, I just can’t seem to find it anymore”…As you go further down the rabbit hole come back and let us know your thoughts..Richard(theoldwiseman)

  3. It is a big planet. A few people cannot control without millions of people implementing that control in every enterprise, community and household. What I most focus on is the “trim flaps” of financial control and harvest throughout the financial ecosystem. If we can see how we are drained and manipulated, understand them then we can take actions that will protect ourselves and break the chains.

    You can understand that the NWO and its factions are real. You can understand that secret societies are real. And then?

  4. thanks, Catherine.
    this is a great site. now, one suggestion, how about getting a new photo of yourself? one that is not looking down. the men are all looking up. time for a different look.

  5. @FormerUS Marine: found this on another blog today–it’s Catherine at a 2008 lecture:

    Also you might want to contact Kevin Trudeau ( http://www.naturescure.com or http://www.kevinTrudeau.com ) who while being on the alex jones http://www.infowars.com program was specific about his “friends” in the Bildergerg group and their imminent plans for us all ( if you read this in time May 26th-the program is streamed 24 hours until 11am CST May 27th….).best of all luck, Richard

  6. Margaret:

    Would love to get a new round of shots. When I do, I won’t be thinking about what the men do. I would rather be me,

    🙂

  7. WHAT STUDENTS? I am a full-time student at Los Angeles City College. There are not many “students” around here, although there are lots of illegals and there are lots of people on government hand-outs. These numbers are from one ot the Political Science professors: There are 18,000 “students” at LACC at any one time. 1,566 will get a bachelor’s degree. The sooner we cut the money supply, the better off we will be.
