LAST NIGHTS SESSION WAS ONLY THE FOURTH TIME IN 176 YEARS THAT CONGRESS CLOSED ITS DOORS TO THE PUBLIC Word has begun leaking from last nights special, closed-door session of the United States House of Representatives. Not only did members discuss new surveillance provisions as was the publicly stated reason for the closed door session, they also discussed: the imminent collapse of the U.S. economy to occur by September 2008, the imminent collapse of US federal government finances by February 2009, the possibility of Civil War inside the USA as a result of the collapse, advance round-ups of "insurgent U.S. citizens" likely to move against the government, The detention of those rounded-up at "REX 84" camps constructed throughout the USA , the possibility of retaliation against members of Congress for the collapses, the location of "safe facilities" for members of Congress and their families to reside during expected massive civil unrest the necessary and unavoidable merger of the United States with Canada (for its natural resources) and with Mexico (for its cheap labor pool), the issuance of a new currency - THE AMERO - for all three nations as the proposed solution to the coming economic armageddon. Members of Congress were FORBIDDEN to reveal what was discussed. Several are so furious and concerned about the future of the country, they have begun leaking info. More details coming later today and over the weekend. SPREAD THE WORD!!! www.halturnershow.com/ http://homesecurity.meetup.com/20/ |

Notice that there are some blatant inaccuracies (closed door sessions have happened only 4 times in the last 176 years) but there is no substantiation. It is pure unadulterated rumor. SPREAD THE WORD!!! |

Oh please. Chicken little, how did you get this information?

The United States Senate has been called into closed session 54 times since 1929.

"The United States Senate has been called into closed session 54 times since 1929"
The Senate deals with external affairs (treaties and the like) which the House does not, and the House has sole authority to originate budgets, that the House (not the "Congress" and not the "Senate) held a closed door meeting may have different implications. Whether or not the House has met in closed session only four times in history I don't know -- but it has nothing whatever to do with what the Senate may or may not have done during any period of time. |

Assuming you trust historical recitations by this source, the House has, indeed, met in secret session only four times since 1830 -- which would actually be a bit more than the 176 years claimed. Since it is plainly unusual for the House to conduct its business in secrecy, it should come as no particular surprise such a rare event would -- and should -- draw speculative notice as to what unusually sensitive topic of discussion might merit denying knowledge of that discussion to the public, and presumably also even to members of the Senate, Executive, and Judiciary, for that matter. Not to worry -- the government is on the case and we should all happily continue with our regular programming. |

Hal Turner is a provacatuer working for the FBI. http://www.splcenter.org/blog/2008/01/11/neo-... But then, almost all of them are fake, including Alex Jones. Just like in other things, the criminals are running the opposition to themselves. This is why nothing gets fixed. And Alx Jones is why people are talking about hidden nazi societies except for the group of real people who have the ability to pull this worldwide con off. |
