Hat Tip to Trevor Louden, via Noisy Room…
Trevor Louden at New Zeal has the story about the people Glenn Beck’s been talking about. Check it out:
America’s “progressive” elite gather to wreck the country that raised and nurtured them. America’s Future NOW! is underway right now at Washington D.C’s grand old Omni Shoreham hotel.
For three days leading activists from the radical Instititute for Policy Studies, Democratic Socialists of America, Congressional Progressive Caucus and the Democratic Party, labor unions and “community organizations” confer and plan the next stages of the Obama revolution.
America’s Future NOW! 2009
The event is organized by Campaign for America’s Future, itself a creation of I.PS. and D.S.A. and is the latest incarnation of the Take Back America conferences that ran for several years up to 2008.
This is the heart of the “progressive” movement that put Barack Obama into power. There next step is to consolidate that power, building a movement that will keep the Obama administration tracking hard left.
The speakers list includes many “progressive” leaders including;
Labor union leaders Stewart Acuff, Arlene Holt Baker , Andy Stern , Richard L. Trumka, Leo W. Gerard, Karen Nussbaum
Institute for Policy Studies affiliates Gar Alperovitz, Sarah Anderson, Robert L. Borosage

Democratic Socialists of America affiliates John Atlas, Heather Booth, Robert Kuttner, Ron Ruggiero, Deepak Bhargava
Communist Party USA affiliates Rep. Barbara Lee, William McNary

all they can promise is more printed money to buy votes with , and the collapse of the USA economy with it , and then utopia with more printed money , but what will the rest of the world do if they do not believe in this great shift ??? And what will the USA do for supply of vital needs in abundance if the rest of the world does not want to provide the supply of additional goods if they do not want the printed currency the Obama Republic is Printing ???

Most economists believe the Great Recession ended in the summer of 2009 although a quick look at the numbers reveals President Barack Obama’s stimulus measures, widely credited for getting the economy going again, really didn’t work.
In the third quarter of 2009, final gross domestic product growth came to 2.2 percent, according to government data, although when stimulus spending was subtracted from that figure and numbers show the economy contracted, the Big Picture reports.
