  9. Nah, do not think so. Perhaps this video says it all! God Bless America!
  10. They have yet to figure it out but here is a clear demonstration of why, why, why?? Biden collects rent from Secret Service $2,200 a month for cottage use By Jim McElhatton Washington Times does more than protect Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. — the agency also pays him rent. Since April, Mr. Biden has collected more than $13,000 from the agency charged with protecting him and his family for use of a rental cottage adjacent to the waterfront home he owns in a Wilmington, Del., suburb. Mr. Biden, listed not as vice president in federal purchasing documents but as a “vendor,” is eligible for up to $66,000 by the time the government contract expires in the fall of 2013, the records show. Officials say the arrangement came about when a previous tenant moved out of the cottage and the Secret Service moved in. Edwin M. Donovan, special agent in charge at the Secret Service's Office of Government and Public Affairs in Washington, said the agency pays $2,200 in rent per-month, the same amount a previous tenant had paid before moving out. He said the close location provides a level of security for the Biden family the agency might not have had otherwise. Asked if the Secret Service typically pays rent to the people it protects, he said, “It’s a rental property so we pay rent there.” Taxpayer watchdogs say the Secret Service should do everything it can to protect Mr. Biden, but they wonder whether he should be collecting rent from the agency while it’s doing its job. “He should be afforded every single protection available to him and his family, as should every vice president and president,” said Leslie Paige, spokeswoman for the Washington-based Citizens Against Government Waste. “But this arrangement seems bizarre to me,” she added. “You’d think the vice president, who shepherded the deficit committee, would think twice about charging the Secret Service rent. Why would he need the money? I don’t get it.” According to <a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/joseph-r-biden-jr/">Mr. Biden’s office, the vice president’s mother lived in the cottage until she died in January 2010. At that time, the Secret Service had been renting properties in the Wilmington area for agents who were providing a protective presence at Mr. Biden’s personal residence. Mr. Biden later asked the Secret Service if the agency wanted to rent the cottage property, but the Secret Service declined and Mr. Biden rented it instead to a private tenant, according to the vice president's office. But almost a year later, when that tenant moved out, the Secret Service approached Mr. Biden about renting the cottage. “The cottage was an existing rental property at the time the Secret Service signed its lease,” said Kendra Barkoff, a spokeswoman for Mr. Biden. Last year, Mr. Biden and his wife, Jill, reported earning $379,178, including $11,000 in income from the cottage, according to the Bidens’ tax return. The Bidens did not list any rental income for 2009. The Secret Service was the contracting agency on the two purchase orders so far that have paid Mr. Biden $13,200 combined for use of his cottage. The first purchase order to Mr. Biden, for $2,200, was signed April 1, and the second, for $11,000, was signed June 2. The records both list Mr. Biden by name as the vendor under a section of the purchase order called “contractor information.” The purchase order describes Mr. Biden as a sole proprietor with no employees and no annual revenue. The Washington Times inquired about the rental arrangement after Mr. Biden’s name appeared as a vendor in federal spending records. As the vendor on a fixed-price contract, Mr. Biden technically now is a federal contractor. He’s been outspoken in calling for greater accountability in federal contracts. When Mr. Biden and President Obama launched the “Campaign to Cut Waste” last month, Mr. Biden said, “The President and I are committed to changing the way government works and we are stepping up the hunt for misspent dollars.” During the presidential transition, Mr. Biden and Mr. Obama pledged to end the abuse of no-bid contracting and require competitive bidding on nearly all contract orders for more than $25,000 across the federal government. Though the overall rental contract has a total value of up to $66,000, the agreement was approved through simplified acquisition procedures that do not require bidding. “To an outside observer who pays the taxes that help fund protective services, this might seem like an odd arrangement, but apparently there’s some law or administrative procedure that facilitates it,” said Pete Sepp, vice president of the National Taxpayers Union in Alexandria, which monitors federal spending. Mr. Sepp also had a thought on what Mr. Biden could do with the rent money he collects from the Secret Service: “Every elected official can do the same thing average Americans can, which is to write a check to the Bureau of the Public Debt to bring down the national debt.” The Secret Service, an agency within the Department of Homeland Security, is required by law to ensure the safety of current and former national leaders and their families, such as the president, past presidents, vice presidents and presidential candidates. http://www.washingto...e=all#pagebreak Now does anyone here have full Secret Service Protection while simultaneously collecting rent to enable the Secret Service to protect yiou? No, then this clearly demonstrates that we pay for his Secret Service Protection and then pay rent for this agency to be able to do so. Excuse me isn't there something wrong with this? Do we do not pay Biden enough to be Vice President but we need to pay him $2200. 00 more per month so his cottage can be rented. Waste to the inth degree I wonder what else that we do not know? Government Corruption or what? God Bless America!
  11. God Bless America!
  12. BEACH PARTY SUMMER! Had to share this! God Bless America!
  13. And so it is a dump truck no less! Great Post, KS! God Bless America!
  14. How could he not know that thae U.S. Treasury oversees sale and trade of Iraqi Dinar in the United States. OMG! http://dinarvets.com/forums/index.php?/topic/77537-re-iqd-sellers-or-trade-offices-being-registered-iwth-us-treasury/page__pid__599612__st__0entry599612 PLEASE, PLEASE, GOD..BLESS AMERICA!
  15. Yes, especially interesting since a member of Congress (a Senator, no less) doesn't seem to know how much the U. S. Treasury is involved in the sale and trade of the Iraqi Dinar in the United States. See this article. http://dinarvets.com...rod-brown-d-oh/ God Bless America!
  16. U.S. TREASURY AND BEING REGISTERED BY SAME. It occurred to me as I looked at this symbol and the line Registered by the U.S. Treasury upon all web sites and entities that offer IQD for sale. Such are also registered with U.S. Department of State. Then I pondered the fact that the U.S. Treasury is said to be the holder of trillions of Iraq Dinar. I thought well that could make things better or could it? Why not? Simple the U.S. Treasury is an entity of the U.S. Government but and this is a big but the Federal Reserve is a private Central Bank Institution. Could this be the reason why the Administration and portions of Congress are so crazed to raise the Debt Ceiling? Is it because the Federal Reserve cannot touch what is in the U.S. Treasury not even after the revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar? Could it be that such an event would bring the huge sums of money to a place where it would be property of the United States and its citizens. Could it be the deficit would be erased because there would be enough it in to create a huge surplus of funds in the U.S. Treasury? And finally is this the reason that all of Iraq's assets where brought to the Federal Reserve for supposed protection? Somewhere there was a missing piece to the puzzle of the constant delays involving the announcement and the revaluation of the Iraqi Dinar? If you check old news articles and posts you will see that there is nothing new under the sun or in our repository of posts but only recycled articles, IMF, UN and endless pros and cons as to what is happening now or what will happen next. Is there a possibility that when the Bush Administration put both the U.S. Treasury and the Department of State over all Iraqi Dinar Investment that it tied the hands of the Federal Reserve and others? Is this the missing piece to the puzzle? I could be way off base but it is something to ponder. God Bless America!
  17. Therefore Iraq remains unchanged as of August 1, 2011.
  18. http://treasury.un.o...ionalRates.aspx Actually was at the back up site actual site demonstrates IQD the same on August 1, 2011. God Bless America! Has anyone found IRAQ on the August UN Operational Rates site?
  19. I believe you! We have seen this over and over again. http://www.un.org/Depts/treasury/ It looks like Iraq is not even on this list? Gpd Bless America!
  20. Also their important meeting in 2010. You will find all the Basel press releases posted for many of us posted the links here in October of 2010. It just happened to be news filled month regarding adding more cash reserves to banks. In fact we were all happy about that feeling the revaluation might be eminant. God Bless America!
  21. True but did it take them as long to do so as Iraq? And wasn't foreign investment in Turkey the greatest part of what saved their economy? Just saying it was not all the redenomination.
  22. I really wasn't pointing out Turkey and it problems with currency I was more interested in the line below and only that it has been discussed over and over. And the fact that later on in October 21, 2010 when Dr. Shabibi met with all the Directors of the Central Banks and other Global financial heads here in Jacksonhole Wyoming..he himself indicated the revaluation would be soon (whatever that meant) and that Iraq could in ffact (Shabibi's words) support a Iraqi Dinar Revalue of $6.00 to $12.00 USD that is per IQD. (This line and basically they are still saying the same thing in 2011) Asked about the exchange rate of the Iraqi Dinar, Al-Zubaydi says the Central Bank is responsible for monetary policy. He says when he first came to the finance ministry he proposed to the governor of the Central Bank to increase the Iraqi dinar rate against the US dollar...(and this was stated in October of 2009.) Read more: http://dinarvets.com.../#ixzz1TQaTUAX1 Why still talk about it and not do something now?
  23. Central Bank has in fact made a decision on the matter, but its implementation needs time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ["Dialogue" feature: Interview with Iraqi Finance Minister Baqir Jabr al-Zubaydi, conducted face-to-face by Ibrahim Amir, on the 2010 budget and the 2009 supplementary budget; place not given - live or recorded.] Dubai Al-Sharqiyah Television in Arabic at 1414 gmt on 16 October 2009 carries in its "Dialogue" feature a 40-minute interview with Iraqi Finance Minister Baqir Jabr al-Zubaydi, conducted face-to-face by Ibrahim Amir. The interview's venue is not given, but Al-Zubaydi says he will be attending a meeting at the finance ministry in Baghdad at 1300 on the same day. Asked about revenues, Al-Zubaydi says there is development in revenues from customs, taxes, and the sale or lease of State land. Asked about the exchange rate of the Iraqi Dinar, Al-Zubaydi says the Central Bank is responsible for monetary policy. He says when he first came to the finance ministry he proposed to the governor of the Central Bank to increase the Iraqi dinar rate against the US dollar, and during a recent visit to Turkey he told the governor who was with him that Turkey has devalued its currency against the dollar from 4 million Turkish pounds (TL) to the dollar, to approximately TL 1.5 pounds to the dollar. He says the Central Bank has in fact made a decision on the matter, but its implementation needs time.
