Your First Amendment Rights Are Under Attack

SEE HERE The current administration is the most religiously intolerant we've seen in a long time.  They are bent on forcing people of faith to their agenda which amounts to mandating the religion of secular humanism.  That violates the first amendment and they are attacking the free speech of those that stand up for traditional values.  Protest this ... click on the link and it doesn't hurt to have some great chicken at Chick-fil-A!

Jon Voight Quotes Thomas Sowell

We must decide whether we are to continue to be a free people or an enslaved people.  That is at the heart of the fundamental transformation Obama is seeking.  Should he succeed you will cease to be free and the government will dictate everything to you.  This will soon destroy our prosperity.  Government does nothing very well and telling us all what to do and how to live will be no exception.

A Study In Ultimate Arrogance

And the topper is that he has nothing to be arrogant about.  This is, after all, a man with essentially no accomplishments.

Obama's Failed Administration

We're not safer and Obama is making sure that we'll be even less safe in the future as he turns homeland security into the American Gestapo and underfunds the American Military and puts all of our seniors at risk with a still to be understood health car plan that hides numerous taxes and will end up rationing health care.  We're not only not safer, we're on the fast track to dissolution as a free republic. Tyranny Rising!

Obama Performance: EPIC FAIL!

If You Think We Need a Revolution — Think Again!

SEE HERE Revolutions are violent and untidy and generally lead to a lot of fatalities. Our government needs reform not overthrow. So let's get focused on what is really important, which is voting out president Obama who is leading the charge for socialism.

The Liberals Are Inherently Tyrants

Mark Levin on the Sarah Palin Attacks

Thomas Sowell Remembers Milton Friedman

SEE HERE
Milton Friedman always was clear, incisive, and approachable. Generally he was also right!

Selective Criticism Is The Norm For the Media

SEE HERE As I read the media reports of Romney's overseas visits over and over again I see spin generated by the media that suggests that Romney has made many gaffs and misstatements, but the underlying subtext just seems to be that he didn't echo the politically correct speech that the media wants. This is not reporting. It is spin.

The Sheer Bigotry of the Media

Did you ever wonder why the media always blames the right when violence occurs and yet it almost always turns out to be people on the left. It is dishonest and most of the time cuts exactly the other way. Perhaps we need to make these people more accountable.

To Commit Voter Fraud You Have To Create Voters First

SEE HERE Frankly the whole voting process needs to be vetted. People keep telling me that voter fraud is not a problem. Mostly these people are Democrats. Republicans keep telling me that voter fraud is a much bigger problem than is acknowledged. Now I really don't know who is right here, but I think the voting process should be rigorous and beyond the possibility of fraud. I support Voter ID and I think some system should be created to make absolutely sure that only registered voters can vote and that they can vote only once.

Are You Ready For The Boot On Your Neck?

SEE HERE The American Gestapo proceeds apace ... or so it seems. The growth of government since the 1960s has become overwhelming and is crushing freedom in the United States under an increasingly hostile atmosphere of regulation.

It's Time to Get Your Permit and Carry

SEE HERE The number of violent acts by teen-age mobs is escalating. I don't know why but you're not going to be protected by distant police if they decide you're going to be their victim as they entertain themselves with violence and destruction. Be prepared.

Who Are the Real Bigots? ... the Liberals! They Show It All the Time

Go to Chick-fil-A and have a great sandwich in a liberal free environment.

It's Only Fair to Recognize Presidential Accomplishments

Let's quit trashing President Obama and start to recognize his accomplishments! After all, it is quite an impressive list----and it's all true! (This is amusing but it is also outrageous)

First President to apply for college aid as a foreign student, then deny he was a foreigner.

First President to have a social security number from a state he has never lived in.

First President to preside over a cut to the credit-rating of the United States

First President to violate the War Powers Act.

First President to be held in contempt of court for illegally obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico .

First President to defy a Federal Judge's court order to cease implementing the Health Care Reform Law.

First President to require all Americans to purchase a product from a third party (health insurance).

First President to spend a trillion dollars on 'shovel-ready' jobs when there was no such thing as 'shovel-ready' jobs.

First President to abrogate bankruptcy law to turn over control of companies to his union supporters (GM & Chrysler)

First President to by-pass Congress and implement the Dream Act through executive fiat.

First President to order a secret amnesty program that stopped the deportation of illegal immigrants across the U.S., including those with criminal convictions.

First President to demand a company hand-over $20 billion to one of his political appointees.

First President to terminate America 's ability to put a man in space.

First President to have a law signed by an auto-pen without being present.

First President to arbitrarily declare an existing law unconstitutional and refuse to enforce it.

First President to threaten insurance companies if they publicly spoke-out on the reasons for their rate increases.

First President to tell a major manufacturing company in which state it is allowed to locate a factory (Boeing)

First President to file lawsuits against the states he swore an oath to protect (AZ, WI, OH, IN).

First President to withdraw an existing coal permit that had been properly issued years ago.

First President to fire an inspector general of America-Corps for catching one of his friends in a corruption case.

First President to appoint 45 czars to replace elected officials in his office. .

First President to golf 73 separate times in his first two and a half years in office, 90 to date.

First President to hide his medical, educational and travel records.

First President to win a Nobel Peace Prize for doing NOTHING to earn it.

First President to go on multiple global 'apology tours'.

First President to go on 17 lavish vacations, including date nights and Wednesday evening White House parties for his friends; paid  for by the taxpayer.

First President to have 22 personal servants (taxpayer funded) for his wife.

First President to keep a dog trainer on retainer for $102,000 a year at taxpayer expense.

First President to take a 17 day vacation.

Welcome to Government By Stupidity

SEE HERE Where does the government get the right to decide on credit standards at all. Is that in the Constitution somewhere? Did I miss it? Are these people really so stupid that when they've created one gigantic housing bubble they're going to go out and do it again using the same exact excuse? I sorry there are some people who can't afford a house. Maybe we should look at the house building industry while we're at it. I've been looking at sheds lately and thinking how easy it would be to turn some of these incredible sheds into small liveable dwellings. Sure they'd be small but my first house was fairly small. People live in apartments smaller than some of these sheds. The cost of housing is very expensive and it could be reduced with more advanced housing technology, but the government mandates that too. Most of our problems are caused by government because the idiots think they know more than everyone else. Mostly that is not only not true, but extraordinarily not true. Just go to your average government agency and try to get some help and see what a "better form of life" actually looks like. Pleased? I didn't think so.

Parsing Liberal Stupidity — "That's Taken Out of Context"

SEE HERE Which means: "I've been caught telling the truth and now have to create cover." Liberals are always doing this to cover up what they actually said or actually meant. It gets funny after a while since it is sooooo... predictable. This piece is a nice extended parse of the president's speech that created all the uproar. He wasn't taken out of context. He was detected saying what he really thinks, which is an entirely different thing.

Technology Is Making the World Smaller

Celebraties Chatter But Don't Count On Them Making Sense

Government Bureaucracy

Damn right! If you want to know why we're not competitive in the world anymore just listen. Get the government out of the regulation business. It's almost all crap!

What's Your Opinion — Should the 2% Be Allowed to Change The World Because Of Their Sexual Preference?

Learn Economics From a Master

I just love Thomas Sowell.  First of all he is one of the clearest minds around.  This is especially true in the case of economics.  When you listen to Thomas Sowell you are getting truth up front and personal.  This is a man who knows what he's talking about.

I loved the part where he cited the proof, yes proof, that the Laffer curve works.  Every time, every time that taxes have been cut revenue has increased.  That proves we're on the wrong side of the Laffer curve.  It is empirically proved.  But the liberal lunatics continue to deny it.  This is called being in denial.

Excuse Me — Can I Have a Chicken Sandwich?

SEE HERE There is something incredibly dangerous in this whole stupid Chick-fil-A situation. Apparently you can't be a CEO and advocate traditional Christian values without the media mafia demonizing you. I'm planning to go to Chick-fil-A a whole lot more than I ever have before because I don't approve of this kind of nonsense. I went tonight and the place was packed so maybe a lot of other people feel the way I do. I hope so.

The Reality of the Great Depression — Sound Familiar?

I keep having liberals tell me how great FDR was and how he saved us from the Great Depression. This fable is still being bandied about by the liberals and it is little wonder that Obama seems bent on repeating all the failed policies and he's getting the same results. We have the most stagnant economy since the Great Depression and the Great Depression was brought to us not by out of control Wall Street but because of misguided government intervention.

Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell on Health Care

I love these two guys ... they have some of the clearest minds in the field. Listen up and understand what you can expect.

Skirmish One ... Victory for Freedom of Religion

SEE HERE The whole ObamaCare legislation needs to be rescinded and Justice Roberts' finding in the case needs to be reversed.

I'm Still In Newt Gingrich's Camp

Romney may have the nomination locked up based on bound delegates but Newt Gingrich is still the better candidate. He probably can't be nominated unless the convention gets wild but it seems to me that it is important that he end up in a significant role in the administration should the GOP win. Newt is a big idea man and that's something we'll need. A VP nomination would be interesting. Just the debate with Joe Biden would be hilarious.

Schools Kill Creativity


This is a talk from 2006 and it featured in The Costco Connection, a magazine that Costco sends to its members. I thought it would be a fun thing to look at because education is fundamental to a free society. We have to reform our educational system so that our children grow instead of shrinking.

Creeping Tyranny — One Increment At A Time

SEE HERE It's time to recognize that the program that the Democrats want is one that slowly enslaves Americans to the will of government. That's what big government is about after all — control! The list defense of liberty is the armed citizen.

How Is A Dog Like A Liberal?

The Lion Awakes ... Coming

  SEE HERE Before Narnia and before Middle Earth a friendship was forged and it changed everything!

Krauthammer On Romney's Travels and Obama Gaffs

SEE HERE If you thought you were a friend of the United States then Obama pretty much treated you like crap.  If you were an enemy he courted you.  Romney probably wants to mend some fences with friends that have about had it with the Narcissist who seems to be clueless and is destroying American interests worldwide.  I guess the "fundamental transformation of America" is parsed as diminishing America to a third world status.  He's doing quite well at that.  BUST OF CHURCHILL

Concealed Carry? Saving People All the Time

SEE HERE This is an example of how concealed carry saves people from greater violence.  It happens all the time.  The vast majority of gun usage that goes unreported in the press is of private citizens using guns in their own defense or in the defense of others. 

Tolerance? — Not towards People of Faith

These guys are about as respectful as they get.  They line up with flags and banners and signs and pray in public places and hand out brochures.  It isn't all that uncommon for someone, sometime groups, to attack them, throw bottles and try to injure them.  That's what liberalism is all about.  They are the primary engine of moral degradation as they tear down traditional values.  Over 56 million babies have paid the price for the sexual promiscuity and social decadence of our time and they called it "free love" and want us to pay for it.  It isn't free and it isn't love.

"I'm bruised, but not about to give up," said TFP volunteer Jesus Guerra. "The attacker's behavior reflects the socialist mindset: if they can't win the debate, they bully you. If they can't silence the Church on moral values, they use mandates, intimidation and persecution."   SEE HERE

Those Who Refuse to Learn From History Will Be Doomed to Repeat It

Are You Sure You Understand What Is Going On?

Oligarchy?  Central Banking?  Globalism?  There are many narratives that tend to be written off as wacky.  My philosophy is not to dismiss anything out of hand.  Listen and factor in what people claim weighing what they say in the context of the evidence.  You can't be hurt by taking in more data, but you do have to test the data.  Don't swallow anything without inspection.  The Obama Desception takes an extreme view that our presidency is a puppet presidency controlled by an oligarchy of controllers.  My view is that this is unlikely, but that it can't be wholly discounted.  Certainly Wall Street and international banking has influence.  But as much influence as these folks suggest?  Probably not.

We Need to Finish What Newt Started

Liberal "Entitlement" Thinking — Everywhere! Just Who Is Greedy Here?

Liberalism is always projecting their own greed on others.  We're supposed to just sit here and take it.  Crazy!

If You Missed This The First Time Make Sure To See It Now

Democrats never met a tax they didn't like or a spending program that supported their supporters that they didn't like.  If Obama is reelected you are in big trouble and if you jointly with your spouse make $250K you are going to see taxes that are an overwhelming increase.  This will further cripple the economy and doom any prospective recovery.

The Fundamental Transformation of America ... A Progress Report

This Is The Kind of Medical Care You Can Expect ...

SEE HERE When the state gets into medicine, what the patient wants is no longer of much interest.  The doctor is so far from the patient through the decision tree of bureaucrats and government paperwork and insurance and drug companies that you might as well forget thinking you have a voice in your own treatment.  We should go back a long way to the way it was when the doctor and the patient had a personal relationship and didn't get all this "help" from people who really don't give a damn.

We Are Failing Our Children

SEE HERE ... and the public schools are at the center of the problem.  They are too busy indoctrinating and not busy enough educating.  We have a system that propagandizes but does not teach.  We get feral little monsters all too often and not virtuous citizens.  This needs to be turned around.

Clarity Leads to Understanding ... Liberals Should Try It!

SEE HERE We live in a society which is increasingly operating on irrationality. People who really think that a society can function without being productive, or that the idea of marriage is something that can be combined with the idea of homosexual coupling, or the idea that only ideas vetted by the liberal progressive minority based on their biases should have a hearing in the public square, or that believing something is the same as having demonstrated that it is true are all living in an irrational dream world. When you believe things that are not true and you act on them, your world may not crumble immediately, but crumble it will because you simply can't ignore the truth for long before your world starts to come apart. We're already experiencing it. It can only accelerate if we don't do something about it soon.

If I Wanted America to Fail ... I'd ...

Sobering!

The Death of Liberalism — Long Term

SEE HERE Liberalism is unsustainable, but in the meantime it may destroy us. It is unsustainable for lots of reasons, perhaps the most fundamental being that it contains the seeds of its own destruction, but it is also destroying us in very real ways so the big question is will it succeed in destroying us before it dies or will we have to rebuild from ground zero after it dies. (Read the comments ... I thought a number of them were quite insightful.)

Staged? Really?

Alex Jones of InfoWars is pushing the idea that this was a set up, staged event.  A stretch?  It's not impossible but it is implausible.

Some Witnesses Dispute the Official Story

So did the Aurora shooter have an accomplice?  Some of the people in the theater think so. 

Interesting — Is This Where Saddam's WMDs Ended Up?

SEE HERE I remember during the Iraq invasion that there was talk that surveillance had seen trucks non-stop from Iraq into Syria in the weeks leading up to the invasion.  When U.S. forces on the ground investigated they found large warehouses that were empty but which apparently had held the contents that the trucks had hauled away.  Now here we have Syria admitting having WMDs.  Fancy that!!

Never Let A Crisis Go To Waste

SEE HERE Every time there is a shooting the anti-gun folks are out in force as if guns cause gun violence. They ignore the actually data that there is less violence where there are more guns in the hands of citizens. What a concept! Violent criminals are less likely to commit violence if they stand a higher probability of being met with armed resistance. The killings in Aurora were causes by a madman who apparently planned them for months. They could have been brought to an abrupt end had he been met with armed resistance. But the theater was a gun free zone, except of course for those who pay no attention. One wonders if the lunatics that push gun control ever bother to read the data?

Guaranteed Victim Zones

So You Think You Can Trust Government? Think Again!

Do not be deceived. An unarmed population is a population of victims and slaves regardless of how it is presented to the population. Government is not something positive except when it is limited. As it grows in size and power it also grows in corruption and inhumanity. If you want to be informed you should watch this video. It is an hour long and very sobering. It is not for the faint of heart since many very explicit images are shown illustrating man's inhumanity to man. THOUGHTS ON CONCEAL CARRY

Serious Firearm Footage: Fully Automatic Rifles

Don't bother if you can't afford the bullets.  These things are expensive to shoot.

A Real Candidate: Martha McSally! Awesome!

You Reap What You Sow

SEE HERE  Read "The Abolition of Man" by C.S. Lewis if you want to know why we have so much more violence these days.  When you destroy the morality of a civilization you reap the whirlwind.

Bring Back Cap Pistols

I remember my very first cap pistol.  It was a pirate pistol which simulated a two barrel flint lock pistol.  It had two hammers that were controlled by a single trigger and the hammers fell down on square caps you had to put into a slotted receiver.  Because it was so nicely designed it make a good loud bang when the caps went off.  It was terrific fun.  Later I had other cap pistols along the lines of the Wild West revolvers.  They took coils of caps and were not nearly as loud as the pirate pistol.

My pistol looked a bit like this, although I don't think this is quite it.

The Lazy American Disease

They Don't Care What Your Rights Are

Government is no respecter of your rights.  You can count on this because it has already happened.  If this is where we are headed than maybe it's time to stand up and be counted.

Republican Establishment Equals Stupid ... Over and Over Again

SEE HERE Say Ford-Dole-McCain-Romney over and over again and you'll be speaking the litany of Republican Establishment stupidity. It may be getting ready to play out all over again. After a while you start thinking that there really aren't two political parties just some sort of high level posturing because when it comes down to the rubber meeting the road it is extremely hard to tell the difference between one set of liars and another. The only difference is what they lie about.

The Reality of ACORN — The Left Is Fundamentally Corrupt

Reality 101 Part 2: What Hath Liberalism Wrought?

SEE HERE Some of us are old enough to remember when President Kennedy was assassinated and later when President Johnson launched the Great Society's War on Poverty. What has the result been? The result has been the destruction of the lower class. The result has been an explosion in the number of illegitimate children. The result has been single parent homes where mothers struggle and fathers are no-where to be found. The result has been the rise of the drug culture. The result has been no decrease in the impoverished only a decrease in their ability to see a way out. The programs that have been championed by the liberal progressives has made a problem into a disaster and their only program is more of the same. It's time to get rid of that bunch altogether and start over with more rational programs that create initiative and don't just crush it.

Free Enterprise Built America! It is the Liberal Progressive Seeking to Destroy It.

Good add but it doesn't make me like Scott Brown. He's just another Massachusetts RINO, although any RINO is better than a Liberal Progressive Democrat Marxist like Obama. Oh you don't think he's a Marxist? Maybe you should pay closer attention to his history, his mother, his father, his mentors and associates and his appointments. Then come and say that he's not with a straight face.

Batman and Evil — A Symbol of Our Times

SEE HERE Any article that ends with a quote from G.K. Chesterton gets my attention. This one ends with: ... As Chesterton wrote, "The more truly we can see life as a fairytale, the more clearly the tale resolves itself into war with the dragon."

The reality of evil has been played out in Aurora and we all need to contemplate our own role in confronting it. Batman is a suitable symbol for that struggle.

Financially Unsustainable? — Why Should Colleges Be Different?

SEE HERE The financial trainwreck which our political system has structured for us will not exempt the colleges and universities when the tipping point arrives. In particular about a third of colleges and universities are on an unsustainable path with expenses increasing faster than revenues. If we work it right we can get all these things to line up and produce a trainwreck of epic proportions ... I think our politicians are up to the challenge.

We Have A Sin Problem And It's Obvious

SEE HERE This is beyond obvious. All you have to do is look back about fifty years and see that before that time things were very very different. I grew up in those years and it is almost like living in a whole different world today. It is a more technologically advanced world but it is a far darker and degraded world as well. We need to restore a commitment to virtue.

The United States Is Preposterous — Homeland Security Should Be Eliminated

This is a bit off color in places but it's also hysterical. Can we stop playing nannystate and start assuming citizens can take care of themselves. The bunch of buffoons that make up DHS are a disgrace.

And What Have You Built Mr. President?

Actions Have Consequences

SEE HERE The failure on the part of government is to trust the citizen. The vast majority of citizens are good people. They would likely be even better people if we would return to teaching virtue and stop subsidizing the destruction of families. An armed citizenry is a serious deterrence to those who seek to endanger us. The data is all on the side of arming the citizenry, but the government seems to prefer docile slaves to armed patriots. One has to wonder why? Apparently they don't trust us. Frankly my response to people that don't trust me is to not trust them. I figure it's projection.

The Myth of a Free Press — Unbelieveable!

SEE HERE I started reading this piece with no great expectations but as it unfolded I thought "overarching censorship" apparently voluntary. The press used to value independence and not they are just hangers-on. Sad!

This Is Content-Free Reporting ... What Do You Expect From Today's Biased Media?

SEE HERE The news media continues to be complicit in misleading and actually lying to the American people. This is an example of content free reporting. The mention of Obama's release of a "birth certificate" isn't accompanied by mention of the fact that that birth certificate fails to meet even the most cursory checks for authenticity. Instead the article focuses on Romney's tax returns which is clearly a play on the usual leftist appeal to envy. People who get rich, especially first generation rich, do so on hard work and initiative, something the left minimizes. They blame it all on "greed" when in fact it is based on creativity and hard work. The point I want to make however is that there is no substance of any kind to this article. This is typical Washington ComPost!

Is This The Way Law Enforcement Is Supposed to Work?

Increasingly law enforcement seems to be hostile to the citizenry. That's not supposed to be the way it works. Too many police officers are trigger happy and too many citizens are used to their arrogant behavior and have been turned off by it. The police are supposed to be the servants not the masters. We should stop hiring the Rambos.

Tyranny? — It's Here Folks!

The government thinks they know better than you. Just which part of the Constitution is this supposed to represent?

The Totalitarian Spirit of Our Current Chief Executive

SEE HERE I got called on the claim that there have been over 900 Executive Orders signed by the president so I went to the source of the article I originally cited, Warren Beatty.  HERE  The number you get by subtracting Obama's first executive order from the latest is only about 129 so what gives.  Well what gives is all the Executive Orders have not been numbered, all have not been original, many have merely been modified.  The overall pattern however is a bit chilling.  It reveals a Chief Executive that is acting more like a dictator than an American president.

To quote Warren Beatty:
"EOs Obama signed start with number 13489, but my research shows that there are many more unnumbered EOs, such as:  http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/closure-guantanamo-detention-facilities 

See this link:  http://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/executive-orders    for a complete list of his offerings and damage.

And Obama has amended and/or updated EOs signed by other presidents, such as number 12859:  http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/executive-order-further-amendments-executive-order-12859establishment-domestic-poli  and number 12919:   http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/16/executive-order-national-defense-resources-preparedness

So the number of numbered EOs Obama has signed, number of unnumbered EOs he has signed, plus the number he has updated and/or amended totals over 900.

And let's be realistic: Obama himself did NONE of this."

Notice that last sentence.  Obama isn't doing this.  He's too busy on the golf course and running for reelection.  This is being done by the hive of leftist drones that are working against time to suborn the Constitution and "fundamentally transform America."  Is this really the HOPE and CHANGE you voted for?

Are We Living In the Twilight Zone? — READ THIS NOW!

SEE HERE Now this is strange.  This is either true or false.  If it is true then all hell is going to break loose and it's hard to decide who wins.  It is also so vague that it is probably a red herring to create an atmosphere that would justify the stories being bandied about that DHS is planning for some sort of event.  If it is false than it's a disinformation move on the part of someone which may stimulate a justification for a reaction, so even false is not a get out of jail free card.

I've been aware of politics and general political events since the latter part of the Truman administration and there have been all sorts of weird things over the years.  This kind of stuff is way over the top on any measure I've experienced in my life.  I could give a list of outrageous U.S. government events that seemed unacceptable for a nation like ours but except for some fiction I've read I've never seen anything like this.  True or false we're in a period of amazing conspiracy theories and wild assertions and expectations.  Has the world gone crazy?

Fact or Fiction? — Should We Be Scared or Amused?

SEE HERE I don't know what to make of this stuff ... it gets more and more surreal.  I began worrying about the direction our country was taking when the American citizens started getting targeted with violence.  Ruby Ridge and the attack on the Branch Davidian complex in Waco, Texas was the beginning of my total loss of trust in the government.  It has only gotten more surreal with time.  The free republic that the Founders envisioned seems under serious attack and very few seem to be concerned.  So exactly what is going on?

Here's a much earlier report.  It tends to sound like alarmism to me but it coordinates with a lot of other information which makes me cautious ... this report is from this past May.  The predictions of economic collapse have not yet happened and may not happen.  We are on an adverse track, but this stuff is likely excessive.  What is strange is some of the activity reported to be occurring in the DHS.

The Stupid Obama Remark That Keeps On Giving

The government actually doesn't build anything ... but I didn't have to tell you that.  All this story about roads and dams and stuff was build by contractors paid with tax dollars inefficiently distributed by bureaucrats.  The government can't actually do anything very well.

Bill Whittle on "It's a Miracle" — What's Behind Obama?

Barack Obama was raised by a myriad of Communists. It's just not a surprise that he thinks the way he does. Everything in his life seems to have been given to him. The troubling aspect of this is why? No one else has so many miracles giving them access now to the highest office in the land without any particular achievements ever. Of course someone else did it for him ...

Bill Whittle asks a really fundamental question at the end: "Who's behind it all?"  This constant string of "miracles" is too hard to believe.  It's really a mystery why Obama seems to be able to get away with anything including what certainly appears to be his efforts to "fundamentally transform America" in a way completely at odds with the vision of the Founders.

Design and Evolution: A Discussion with Dawkins

SEE HERE It is hard to avoid the use of the word "design" as we look at the marvelous creations of nature. Whether Darwinian processes can actually explain the variety and complexity of the natural world around us is still problematical. I think that the more we learn the less likely Darwinian natural selection looks like a plausible process. This is not to suggest that natural selection does not occur, but even the millions of years available do not seem sufficient to explain the complexity of "design" apparent in the natural world, especially I think some of the cross species specialization. The discovery of DNA, if anything, makes the whole process even less probable since it highlights just how complex the code is that describes us. The video is interesting just because it finds it a struggle to escape from design language even though both are committed Darwinians.

Ultimate Takedown of Obama's Nonsense About Who Builds Businesses

SEE HERE Frankly the cover story that Obama was just talking about essential infrastructure and somehow didn't really mean that entrepreneurs didn't build their own businesses is bunk. This is a pretty comprehensive exploration of the progs notion that government is essential to the success of free markets. (I've noticed that "progs" is becoming a slang substitute for liberal progressives.) The reality is what Reagan noted long ago, that government is not the solution to our problems. Government is the problem! The notion that we can't get along without government would come as a huge surprise to almost all our ancestors who built this great nation. The cancerous growth of government has been stagnating the nation for far too long. If we want to continue to be a great nation and not slip into a slide to economic collapse and third world poverty then we better get the message soon. We've been approaching this train wreck for most of my life and we've about reached the tipping point.

Follow the Data — Today Is Just Duplicating the Medieval Warm Period

SEE HERE The CO2 hysteria is based on essentially mindlessness. CO2 is a trace gas that is dissolved in exceedingly large volumes in the oceans. When the environment heats up some of the dissolved CO2 is out-gassed and when it cools relatively more is absorbed. The ice core data shows this phenomenology clearly. Proxies show that the Medieval Warm Period, long before man had any appreciable effect on CO2 was just as warm as it is today. This conclusively shows that it isn't CO2 causing the warm period. There's actually more I could say, but look at the data here. Science is not about consensus. Science is about data and principles. Global warming is not caused by human activity.

ATF Threatens "Whistleblowers" In Effect — Damage Control Anticipation for "Fast and Furious"?

SEE HERE Don't kid yourself, the current administration wants to eliminate your 2nd amendment rights. Dick Morris pointed out the other day HERE that the Arms Trade Treaty has serious gun control implications and can be gamed to force you to register your guns even before the approval of the Congress. The government has become more repressive and out of control in the last couple of decades, make no mistake about it.

Freedom of Speech? — Not If The White House Doesn't Like You

SEE HERE Oh those evil people at Infowars, WND, Fox news and those bloggers that don't like the poor beseiged well-meaning autocrat that is our current president. They shouldn't do that. The poor man is doing the best he can. It's too bad that his best is none too good. But criticism? How mean ... As Truman said, "If you can't stand the heat then stay out of the kitchen."

Look At the Data And Stop Being So Stupid

SEE HERE Well I'm probably not talking to you if you're here. The average liberal doesn't care about data because it contradicts the koolaid addiction. If I've heard them blame Reagan for high deficits once I've heard it a zillion times, but they seem to forget that Reagan had Democratic Congresses and he actually generated more revenue but they spent it all and more. That's what Democrats do and then they blame it on the Republicans. How they continue to get away with this is quite beyond me, but it's true.

Trump Doubles Down — What About Those College Applications?

SEE HERE If you don't have something to hide then why spend $3 million dollars hiding it.  I just can't get over how naive the Obama-bots are.  Their guy is clearly hiding a lot of stuff and for no very obvious reason unless it would reveal that he's a fraud.  What is really baffling is why everyone just rolls over for this.  Donald Trump is probably being self-serving to continue making it an issue.  It keeps him in the limelight but he's also got a point.  What's going on?  When will we know the truth?  And will it be too late?

Nighttime In America — Reality Time with Mark Levin

Stop drinking the koolaid America and stop the fundamental transformation envisioned by the great Narcissist.

This Is Called Savagery

SEE HERE  Here's another reason to get a concealed carry permit and steer clear of neighborhoods where this is a live possibility.  Between flash mobs and this knock-out game it appears we have a serious social pathology.  We're bringing up young savages with no morals or social responsibility. 

Wild Bill Takes On Islam

As a bacon and eggs fan myself I completely endorse Wild Bill on this one!

The End Is Near ...

SEE HERE This is horrific if it happens.  The Founders put the 2nd Amendment in place for a purpose, to protect our liberty.  This administration is not interested in our liberty but in controlling us.  July 27th is a key date. 

We Couldn't Have Done Anything Without Parents Either

SEE HERE Thomas Sowell, clear as usual, takes apart the president's rhetoric. It's all phony. It's all baloney. That's no real surprise. It's also all about power. Who would'a thunk it?

The Most Transparent President In History ... Sure!?

SEE HERE Here are just a few of the things Obama doesn't want you to see. This might not be important had he not claimed he was going to be so transparent. Epic Fail!

Don't Forget How We Got Here

Ann Coulter on the Democrats Long Term Racist Strategy

SEE HERE Well there you go calling names again.  Don't you know that only Democrats are allowed to call someone a racist?  Geez ... when are you going to get with the program.  Ann Coulter, that nasty @#$%^&* and that's just the half of it ... Well yes, I think Ann Coulter is a surprisingly lucid if rather sarcastic and in your face commentator motivated by the desire to get liberal's so mad that they literally melt down, and she's good at it and delights in it.  I wish I was that good! 

The thing that's fun is that she's funny generally as she does it and for the most part she's just doing to liberals what they do to conservatives.  If turn about is fair play then Ann is a champion.  I think she makes a pretty good case that the long term liberal strategy is to build a cycle of dependency so pervasive and large that they will simply become the only party and the effect of this will be that the United States will sink to third world status.  You won't be able to recognize the country.  It may already be too late.

Seeking Immortality — Scanning Our Memories

SEE HERE I know this feeling very well. I was my mother's executor and it was a heartrending experience going through the house and trying to decide what to toss and what to keep. There were wonderful photo-albums of people I had never seen before and didn't recognize. There were all the knick-knacks of a long life. Mom had owl figurines everywhere and there were all sorts of memorabilia. I'm the oldest of ten so it was really difficult trying to figure out how to give everyone fair access to all the "treasures." I tried to run an auction so that my brothers and sisters could bid against each other to value the items and that worked well enough, but some just seemed to think they should be able to go through the house and grab what they wanted. You can't please everyone and sometimes it feels like you can't please anyone. I'm glad it's done but I still have boxes of stuff that I can't quite bear to throw away and I ought to just scan and give copies of the scans to all my brothers and sisters. But that's not easy either. It's tough being an immortal in a mortal body. Hopefully the next model will be better.

The Point About Lying Is That You Really Don't Care About the Truth

SEE HERE So how about this amusing little bit of campaign ad correction? You have to wonder how many lies Obama has to be caught in before people understand that he doesn't care about the truth at all. It's all about slandering your opponent in the hope of demonizing him. Straight Alinsky and the preferred strategy of Democrats since at least Johnson.

The Arrogance of the Republican Establishment

SEE HERE I increasingly think we need a Conservative party that actually stands for principles. Romney may be the Republican nominee apparent but he is sure not Conservative.

American Stimulous Money — Improving the World, Just Not the U.S.

Not to mention the payback to Obama contributors. Great work if you can get it. Planned Parenthood gave Obama $1.3 million and go over three million in Federal monies. "You wash my back and I'll wash yours." It's called corruption, Chicago style!

The Slime Ball Media — Only Report What You Want People To Believe

SEE HERE Facts apparently are not longer of interest to the media. They have the point of view they want to endorse and they cherry pick the points for their narrative and ignore inconvenient facts that suggest their narrative is flawed. They were characteristically preforming in this manner at the ongoing revelations about the so-called birth certificate that was posted on the White House web site. It is not a document that has been completely discredited. It is a forgery pure and simple, but the news media doesn't think that fits their narrative so they apply classic Saul Alinsky tactics and attack the messengers. How enlightened!

Another Update on Arpaio's News Conference

Obama Is Disconnected From Reality — But We Knew That Didn't We?

American Entrepreneurs Calling Out the President

"If you can't understand what drives our economy Mr. President, how can you expect to fix it?"  Good question and one the narcissist in charge is clueless about as demonstrated by the longest run of high unemployment since the great depression.

A Little Advice For the Romney Campaign

SEE HERE Romney or his campaign staff seem to have a death wish.  Maybe his staff contains Obama moles.  It wouldn't surprise me since the temperament of those political hacks that run campaigns requires a lot of liberal genes so many of them are two faced opportunists that will work for anyone or everyone.  But the Republican grassroots is Conservative to the core and very principled and go for real people and not plastic bobbleheads.  Kicking Sarah Palin in the teeth, metaphorically of course, is a recipe for a lot of the grassroots to just zone out.  They might vote or not but their enthusiasm for the candidates is not going to be at a very high level.  You'd think that was obvious, but apparently not to Romney's hangeroners.  He need a more informed and insightful campaign staff.  This article is simply full of good advice ... someone should read it and start implementing.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Press Conference — July 17th

SEE HERE and HERE I just spent the last hour watching Sheriff Arpaio's follow press conference and the new information is 1) the alleged birth certificate is clearly forged (this based on the layering content in the pdf file which was discussed back in March), 2) new information shows that in addition the birth certificate contains Hawaiian codes added to the document which indicate that certain spaces have no information, but in fact there is information in those places in the document meaning that the information was added to the document after it was recorded and generated (hence inauthentic information).  This shows that the document even if it were genuine has been tampered with.

In addition the team sent to Hawaii found that the procedures of Hawaii are such that a birth certificate doesn't necessarily mean that a person was actually born in Hawaii since Hawaii has a procedure to register and issue birth certificates to people who simply go in and say that someone was born there.  This tends to weaken the authority of any Hawaiian birth certificate.

My own sense of the evidence is that there is simply no question but that the birth certificate put up on the White House web site is without any question a forged and blatantly modified document.  The problem with the sequence number on the birth certificate came up and was not entirely clear in my mind how it happened that the Obama birth certificate has a sequence number later than twins that were born earlier.

CONCLUSIONS:  My conclusions are 1) the birth certificate has been thoroughly confirmed to be a forgery, 2) the research shows further that the document has internal evidence that it has been modified since it has Hawaiian codings (actually Federal codings create by the Hawaiian authorities) that indicate certain fields in the document were not completed but those non-completed fields now have data in them. 3) the Hawaiian procedures for creating birth registration is a National Security threat since even an adult can come in and get a birth certificate registered if they have "parents" who lived in Hawaii at the time of the alleged birth thereby allowing an easy way to evade immigration law and get apparently authentic U.S. citizenship.

TROUBLING: What I found most troubling was that the news media when questions were opened up went immediately into attacking the sheriff and the Cold Case Posse and made no attempt to understand clearly the evidence that had been presented.  They were insulting, abusive, and agenda driven and completely off the topic of the press conference.  This is not news coverage, it is pure unadulterated agenda driven spin.

This is Funny And Typical When You're Caught With Your Pants Down

SEE HERE IPCC admits they were doing junk science ... well not exactly ... but they're fixing it, maybe.  "Nothing to see here.  Keep on moving."

The Dependency Mindset — Sorry But That's Not Freedom

The Ugly Reality of Racism

SEE HERE Thomas Sowell focuses in on the problem. Sowell is quite an expert on racism having written a book about it HERE and ANOTHER so he knows whereof he speaks. Here he points out how dysfunctional we have become. We have stereotypicalized racism as a purely white on black phenomenon when in fact the vast majority of racism in America today is black on white. Whether it is the rising epidemic of flash mobs or the violent beating of random individuals, there is a dysfunctional problem in our black communities that should be addressed and is not being addressed apparently because it is not politically correct to point out that black on white racism is every bit the same creature as white on black. Citizenship requires virtue and virtue is taught not caught.

Summary of Fast and Furious — A Conspiracy To Cover Up Criminal Incompetence

Bill Whittle on The President's Record — Just The Idea of a Record Is Hilarious

The only record this president needs is a prison record. He is corrupt to the core and as anti-American as they get. Whittle manages to make this list of travesties entertaining if it were just not so sad.

Get a VP That's Alive!

"Good grief, man- the Veep is supposed to be an attack-dog, especially when the guy on the top of the ticket comes across like C3PO in a Clark Kent wig!" — This was a quote from HERE reacting to the thought that Mitt Romney might select Tim Pawlenty as his VP.


Frankly Mitt Romney is a train wreck going somewhere.  He has the personality of a Ken Barbie-Doll which is why I've called him "plastic-man" in the past.  But he seems to have wrapped up the nomination.  Why must the Republicans pick these lackluster losers when there are exciting, passionate, motivated and committed people out there that they could have rallied behind.  There's hardly a Republican candidate that was running that I didn't prefer to Mitt Romney.  But there we have it.


The VP needs to balance the ticket not try to be so boring that Mitt looks like something special by comparison.  The only think John McCain did right in his whole campaign was pick Sarah Palin as his running mate.  But then they failed to use her effectively.  If there is something worse than these lackluster candidates it is the hollow zombies that they hire as campaign professionals.  They are a bunch of empty suits more plastic than the candidates.  We really need to change the way politics is done in this country to get back to having real people run.  We've made it so painful that only the real dedicated power hungry losers are motivated enough to run.  That's not the way to run a great nation.  It's not even the way to run a small business.  Perhaps it explains how a total narcissist with no experience doing anything in particular could become president of the United States.

Sheriff Arpaio's Cold Case Posse Is Promising New Revelations

SEE HERE Well this should be interesting.  At 2:30 p.m. the latest news conference should take place and we'll discover if there is anything new and dramatic forthcoming.  One would have thought that the material that is already out there would have caused more of a stir and that makes one wonder if anything can dislodge Obama even if he were discovered to be an alien from outer space and the men in black showed up to apprehend him.  There is abundant evidence that something is wrong and it should have been investigated a long time ago at the Federal level.  I'd say that the system is seriously compromised.

Stand By for The Death of the West

I was watching a DVD of the last Star Trek movie that rebooted the series by destroying the planet Vulcan and killing off Spock's mother using some sort of "red matter" that created a black hole in the center of the planet so that it imploded and when I saw this Michael Voris piece it occurred to me that "the pill" as contraception came to be characterized, has a similar effect.  Populations are imploding all over the Western world because sex has been transformed into a recreational activity and separated from its fundamental natural role of procreation.  I suppose we may still have time to change and heal but I see no sign that anyone much intends to.  The whole idea of "The West" may become a footnote in the history books of the future. 

Contemplation Demands the Sound of Silence

Can We Get Any More Juvenile?

SEE HERE If you're looking for substantive discourse in the political run up to the presidential election you're not going to find it coming from the Democrat side. For them it's all a game of smoke and mirrors in the hope of distracting the electorate from the real issues, which all involve president Obama's cluelessness. This presidency is going to go down in history for it's intentional diminishment of America throughout the world. Barack Obama is invested in the liberal idea that all the problems of the world are because of America. All we have to do is stop being so successful. Sorry Barack, but that's total bunk and the source of your cluelessness. You really need to find a job more in keeping with your talents. I think used car salesman might be right up your alley.

How Much Corruption Is Enough?

SEE HERE We have a government long on corruption and short on good governance and we wonder why the country is going to hell in a handbasket? When are we going to call these crooks to account? I'm old enough to remember when we had some standards, not many mind you, but some. Now we're on the downhill slide to none at all or perhaps just every man or woman for themselves and the devil take the hindmost.

Laffer Gives Thumbs Down ... 2013 Isn't Going to be a Banner Year!

SEE HERE This should be a test of who's right on the economic front I suppose. I'm inclined to think Laffer has the better of the argument.

Call to Chivalry Camp: Instilling Knightlyness In The Young


SEE HERE This is something to think about. You can't just sit back and let the culture disintegrate. The whole point of chivalry was to instill Godliness into venal nobles. We still have venality with us today and we need a restoration of virtue. These folks are trying!

If This Is True Then Romney Is A Bigger Idiot Than I Thought He Was

SEE HERE I'm not a big lover of Mitt Romney.  I think he's basically a liberal Republican pretending to be more Conservative than he is.  But since he looks like he has the votes then he's going to get the nomination and I'll vote for him because, frankly, he's not Obama.  But he's more and more looking like a rerun of McCain, a totally unexciting too liberal for the grassroots candidate.  McCain would have lost bigger than he did had it not been for Sarah Palin.  The grassroots does not give a fig for Romney and they didn't give a fig for McCain either, but Sarah Palin is a real person not a plastic imitation person who's been a politician their whole lives.  So if Romney is going to start out early in his campaign by insulting Sarah Palin then that's going to seen a chill even worse than he already has through the grassroots.  These bozos in the Republican establishment simply think they can win by being liberal-lite.  Well the grassroots is getting more and more irritated with them and that isn't the recipe to run a winning campaign.

Over 900 Executive Orders Is Not The American Way

SEE HERE Tyranny is upon us and make no mistake.  There is no possible reason that we need 900 Executive Orders in a single term unless something is not on the up and up.  The Obama administration is bent on ruling not like an American president as part of a three part system with checks and balances, but rather as an imperial tyrant.  It may already be too late to get rid of this guy through the election process because he is certainly suggesting by his actions that he has no intentions of complying.  I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not holding my breath.  CONTRARY DATA

Consensus Is Meaningless In Science — It's All About the Data

SEE HERE Now that we know so much more about the "true believers" in global warming, climate change we know that the so-called consensus was manufactured and largely untrue. We also see many of the scientists with a shred of integrity jumping ship as the degree of the fraudulent science is revealed and the unethical behavior is exposed.

The whole thing is a scam and serious scientists are increasingly concerned about the damage that has been and is being done to the credibility of science. Science is all about the data. Science is also transparent. If you can't get the data then it might as well not exist and perhaps it doesn't. Real scientists publish their data, they don't fudge it or manufacture it or make up fake effects to get the results they want. Increasingly what "real climate scientist" means is that you're a government flack taking money to produce a preconceived, agenda driven result.

One interesting things is the comments in the attached letters which are mostly alarmists reciting the mantras.  When all the comments sound like the same sorry talking points you have a pretty good idea that the folks reacting are just trolls.  It is true that Michael Mann has been white washed but it is also true that his hockey stick is bad science and phony analysis.  So what does it mean that he's been cleared?  Does it mean that he's too stupid to know his own analysis is phony.  I suppose stupidity is a defense.

Allen West on Hannity

The Tooth Fairy Did It! — The Illusions of Barack Obama

SEE HERE We all are part of something greater, our families, our communities, our nation and our God.  No one does it alone.  But the president seems to think that personal initiative and hard work are not the major contributor.  My mom was always fond of saying, "God helps those who help themselves!"  No one accomplished anything ever without getting off their butt.  Success, as Thomas Edison said, "Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration." and he also said, "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work."

Apparently Obama thinks that the lessons need to be reversed. Coming from a man who has never done very much and still managed to become president, I suppose it is not surprising. But it is delusional.

Have I Mentioned That Government Funded Science Is Highly Politicized?

SEE HERE It isn't just global warming that gets politicized, it's everything.  The government doesn't fund science out of the goodness of its heart.  It funds science to get defined results often as not.  So the science is subordinated to the agenda.  It's pathetic sometimes.  I remember years ago when I worked for the U.S. Navy as a scientist when a couple of the Washington bureaucrats that worked for the Office of Naval Research bragged to me that nothing they had ever funded had done the Navy any good.  At the time I was deeply offended and that feeling still nags at me that people taking their daily bread from the Navy were proud that the science that they managed had never been helpful to the Navy.  That kind of thinking permeates the whole government bureaucracy in some places stronger than others, but the idea that they are the wise managers of the direction of science is part of their conceit.

The Law Means Nothing to President Obama

Rush Limbaugh critiques this outrage HERE You do have to wonder why illegal immigrants get welfare? HERE It's all insanity!

Record Heat ... The 1930's Have It Hands Down

SEE HERE Like it matters?  There is this insane idea out there that human being have very much to do with the weather.  It's bunk!  But the constant repetition of a lie tends to get a lot of people believing it.  We've had all kinds of malicious manipulation of the records to suppress the Medieval Warm Period and ignore the Little Ice Age and frankly earlier warm periods in the timeframe of first century B.C. have only just been more clearly identified.  Bottom line!  We're still coming out of the last ice age.  CO2 rises because the earth warms and not the other way around, it's called release from the ocean.  We're actually more on schedule for the beginning of the next Ice Age, but don't worry too much since it comes on slowly.  Almost all the global warming, climate change, ocean acidification, ocean rise, disappearing ice caps and all the rest of the various hype is simply people trying to get the leverage to impose government power on you with the false idea that they are helping you.  Once they get the laws you'll discover that it didn't make any difference but the laws likely won't be repealed.

It all reminds me of the joke about the guy on a park bench making very strange noises all day.  People asked him what he was doing and he said "Scaring away the elephants."  The people said "There are no elephants around here."  He answered, "Very effective isn't it?"  Well that's what's happening with all this global warming nonsense.

Reality? Obama? Total Disconnect. He Can't Really Lie Because He Doesn't Know Anything That Is True!

Mark Levin calls for Impeachment of Sebelius

SEE HERE  When are we going to pay attention when the president seizes legislative power.  That is not only unconstitutional, it is impeachable.  The government doesn't actually seem to work any more.  How many of these kinds of thinks does Obama have to do before our Congress and Senate recognize it as a fundamental attack on our form of government?  It looks like the professional slugs that make up our government don't care at all about integrity any more.

Obama Keeps Lying and Lying and Lying About Romney

I think it was H. L. Mencken that said noone ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.  That's what Barack Obama is hoping for as he lies and lies and lies about Romney.  Romney knows more about economics and what makes the economy work than Obama ever will.  Obama is the main reason we have a never ending recession.   SEE HERE

Allen West Can Sing Too! Fun!

Amusing Anti-Obama Political Ad

CO2 Is Essential for Life On Earth

SEE HERE If you don't have plants you don't have animals and if you don't have plants and animals humans would have nothing to eat.  CO2 is essential for plant growth and the actual optimum level for plant growth is actually much much higher than the current level in the atmosphere.  You have to wonder what kind of scientists are so stupid as to consider CO2 a pollutant.  We should stop funding scientists that are that stupid.

A Recipe for a Totalitarian State — Brought to You Courtesy of the Obama Administration

Food stamps are hyped through advertising, work requirements are being sabotaged (contrary to law), unemployment insurance extended for years.

Obama Back to Gutting Laws — This Is Not Something The President Is Authorized To Do

SEE HERE  When are we going to impeach this dishonorable president who ignores the Constitution and the Law while he acts like an Emperor and writes Executive Orders and stops enforcing settled law.  This kind of thing will send welfare cascading back to the state it was in before when it was just a subsidy for the slothful.

The Problem With One-Dimensional Thinking — It Leads To Stupid Policy

SEE HERE  Thomas Sowell presents a much told tale that the Liberals refuse to get despite it being demonstrated over and over when their brain-dead policies are actually implemented.  We're on the wrong side of the Laffer Curve idiots.  When you raise taxes you actually get less revenue because the people who have to pay the taxes change their behavior to lower their net obligations or they just quit working so hard since it is pointless if you can't keep what you earn.  This has been demonstrated over and over but you can't defeat an idiot who is captivated by a single on-dimensional and wrong idea.

It's the Pro-Aborts that Are the Vicious Ones

SEE HERE Why is it any surprise when the pro-abortion numbskulls attack someone with pro-life views.  They're perfectly comfortable with the killing of fifty-six million infants in the womb since Roe v. Wade and there is no more vicious act than that.

Manufactured Disasters In Swing States — Funny Only Happens In Election Years!

It's called corruption folks! Perhaps the stupidest thing on earth is having courts decide on the reasonableness of scientific points.  Sorry science is not based on testimony in court.  CO2 is an essential plant nutrient.  It is crazy to want to reduce it substantially.  In the past it has been much higher than it is today and there is almost no evidence that human activity contributes to the CO2 level.  It's junk science which is all we get from the media these days.  I think it must be in part because science is actually difficult so that no journalist, or very few, get anywhere close to it in college.  The superficial coverage extends beyond science however to the corrupting power of government when it manipulates science to motivate results that allow it to extend its power.  Ultimately reality will intervene, but then as Keynes said "In the long run we are all dead."

A Slow Motion Train Wreck — On Track for Collapse

Smart money fleeing Spain, Greece close to collapse, most of the EU is big trouble.  Spending more of the tax payers' money and kicking the can down the road will not work much longer because the situation is approaching the tipping point.  We need a clean sweep before we go off the cliff.  We need to back off the crippling regulation and punishment of success.  If we don't then we're set to hit the wall, the only variable is the velocity with which we hit.  We need to climb on the train of history and put on the breaks and change the direction.

This guy's summary precedes a commercial for buying gold.  You should discount it a little on that basis alone.  However, watch the price of gold because gold does at least two things: 1) it signals the value of the dollar, a) rising gold prices means the dollar is getting weaker, b) falling gold prices means the dollar is getting stronger, and 2) sudden jumps in the price of gold signal economic instability, big moves of soft currency into gold so that sudden large jumps signal trouble, sudden downward moves signals reevaluation.  You could do much worse than watching the price of gold as an indicator.

Soros PAC Targets West

SEE HERE Allen West is a courageous man.  It is little surprise that the left is targeting him.  They have striven to redistrict him and now are targeting him.  It would be sad for his voice to be silenced.  He was disciplined for scaring the truth out of an Iraqi to protect his men in a combat situation.  Typical of todays wimpish military leadership he was disciplined.  West should have gotten commended for protecting the men under his command.  If we had more men like West we'd have taken fewer casualties.  George Soros is a master manipulator and I'd consider him to be the back end of a weather vane.  Anything he supports I tend to support the opposite.
