I don't post much Ron Paul news because I can't shake the feeling that this is going to be a repeat of 2008 -- great support from the people, great crimes by the system, and even Ron not willing to name or fight to overturn them. But it's starting to look like the people want the Doctor and may not take no for an answer this time.
Unfortunately due to Blogger.com's limitations, this email won't post with its formatting. But clicking the links in it to add them it seemed that not only the Des Moines fishwrap but the site reporting Ron's landslide reported on another page that the unbearable Cain and the despicable Romney are in the lead -- !?!?!

Ron Paul won huge at the Iowa Straw Poll of National Federation of Republican Assemblies at 82% so what did the News Outlets run? A poll done by the Des Moines Register Newspaper [ below]showing Cain and Romney in the lead, completely ignoring Ron's Landslide win. This shows complete desperation on their part.
TRENDING: Ron Paul wins both tallies at GOP straw poll in Iowa
Posted by
CNN Political Reporter Shannon Travis
Des Moines, Iowa (CNN) - Ron Paul has won two separate tallies for the National Federation of Republican Assemblies Presidential Straw Poll.
Paul won both the Iowa-voters-only count at the Saturday convention in Des Moines as well as a tally of non-Iowans who participated.
In the Iowa voters result, Paul took 82%. Following him were Herman Cain with 14.7%, Rick Santorum with 1%, Newt Gingrich with 0.9%, Michele Bachmann with 0.5%, Rick Perry with 0.5%, Gary Johnson with 0.2%, with Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman 0%.
The total number of votes cast in that tally was 430.
In the tally of non-Iowans who voted, Paul won 26% followed by Cain at 25%, Perry and Santorum tied at 16%, Gingrich at 11%, Bachmann at 6%, Romney at 1%, and Huntsman and Johnson with 0%.
The total number of votes cast in that count was 101.
Though Paul won both tallies, the NFRA has not yet officially endorsed a candidate. Delegates to the convention will decide that later Saturday.
Cain and Romney Statistically Tied in Survey of Iowa Republicans
Businessman Herman Cain and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney are in a statistical tie for the most support among Republicans in Iowa, where the presidential nomination contests start Jan. 3, a poll shows.
The Iowa Poll, conducted by the Des Moines Register newspaper, shows Cain with the support of 23 percent of likely caucus participants and Romney backed by 22 percent.
The results of that prestigious poll came on the same day Cain kicked off a day of appearances in Alabama on Saturday with a win at the West Alabama Straw Poll. Cain took 50.7 percent of 347 total votes cast in that poll, and Ron Paul came in second with 45 percent of the vote.
Other candidates who received votes in the Alabama poll were Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry with five, Mitt Romney at three, and Gary Johnson and Rick Santorum at one each. Michele Bachman and Jon Huntsman also were on the ballot, but did receive any votes.
..........Here's a catchy concept for a commentary (Warning: some vulgarity):
Robin Hood Defamed Again
http://www.ncc-1776.org/tle2011/tle642-20111030-02.html
Robin Hood is a great subject. Historians can't agree that he ever actually existed
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Hood
but writer L. Neil Smith seems refreshingly sure of Robin's reality. Isn't it good to see that in the belief of some, the green-clad one was a tax hero?
Speaking of defamation, you won't believe what some friends of mine discovered in viewing reprints of the 1950s Robin Hood TV series: the scriptwriters threw in a scene where Robin is made a Freemason. Here's a page that mentions it
http://forum.mastermason.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7341
....and shows at least one other onscreen attempt to Masonize the hero and his family. Yes, yes, I know there are lots and lots of good, well-intentioned people who join a Masonic lodge, but if they would give me but a little of their precious time, I feel sure I could show them the evils of such organizations -- and of such entertainment scenes.

XXX York Times: Surprise, more troop engagements in Persian Gulf!
You knew it was a lie that ameriKa was going to bring its troops home for real. You knew it was a lie before Barry had finished puking it up as the flimsiest of campaign ploys!
I wish him well lunging for another four years in the Oral Office with the country in the worst mess ever since Reconstruction (speaking of giant messes created by fedgoons for no good reason).
U.S. Planning Troop Buildup in Gulf After Exit From Iraq
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/30/world/middleeast/united-states-plans-post-iraq-troop-increase-in-persian-gulf.html?_r=2
"Consider the source" as you read this article -- the XXX York Times, the flagship paper of communist brainwashing worldwide, now that Pravda and Izvestia have gone straight. When the Times speaks of a "belligerent" Iran, it's one of the Timesters' biggest whopping lies ever. They hate Iran because it's wise to their racket. Truly, Iran's president is the most courageous and admirable heads of state around today. He dares to not only mention the elephant in the room but to demand a full explanation of its presence and an exit plan for it. For this he is defamed, vilified and slandered without end.
I don't know about you, but I've come to the point of automatically respecting anybody the liberal XXXsmedia hate the most. Works like a charm, even if that's all you know about the individual, country, organization or phenomenon!

It's incredibly good. All huge functions, especially those involving news coverage (like Youtube), are in enemy hands now. The enemy is passionately statist and pro-System. Go to the link and read the actual wording of Youtube's statement -- you'll be glad you did!
It refers openly to "police brutality"; on seeing that it didn't resort to euphemizing/ euthanizing the term, or to adding the gutless qualifier "alleged," I almost fell out of my chair (my exercise for the day).

Great bites (not bytes) of Biden, and more terrifically radical tax talk
You'll enjoy this if you're sick of the eternal dialectical pussyfooting the big shots engage in! I think the tax portions of the following article (access link for the whole piece) are basically reminding us that politics, government and taxes were supposed to be strictly by consent of the people in this country. Yes, it sounds radical if not insane and dangerous today, but if only ameriKa would give FREEDOM another try it'd find it the most natural-feeling state of affairs it's enjoyed in centuries!
This was supposed to be a FREE country. People say they want freedom today, but how many need to free their own spirits and mental paradigms first -- physician, heal thyself? How many, for instance, need to secede from the IRS before they can ever hope to see their family, state or society get off the federal plantation?
Tax patriots are a mixed bag and range from horrible to miraculous in quality. But every single person that exercises his right to keep his whole paycheck shows moxie of a kind that makes 9/10 of the Republicrat rambos out there wet their pants.

As liberals go, I actually had a touch of like for Joltin’ Joe Biden in his Senate days. But since he got in bed with the Marxists in the Executive Branch, it’s become increasingly difficult to give him a pass. Even so, I feel compelled to cut Joe some slack by blaming his maniacal remarks on mitigating circumstances — the fact that he’s a bona fide idiot.
Thus, when the Delaware Dimwit said that paying taxes is the most patriotic thing an already overtaxed American citizen can do, it wasn’t out of malice. Truth be known, I don’t believe he has any idea why he says such things. As near as I can tell, he simply appears to be on progressive autopilot.
..............The question no Republican seems interested in asking is: What gives any elected official the authority to increase taxes on American citizens whenever he has an urge to hand money to selected groups of his choosing? The Constitution doesn’t say that it’s the duty of the American citizen to play the role of a docile cow waiting to be milked whenever politicians decide they need more money.
One of the Democrats’ favorite new talking points is that recent polls show that 80 percent of Americans favor a new tax on millionaires and billionaires. Gosh, really? I would never have thought the average person would favor taxing America’s wealthiest citizens. Duh… of course most people would like to see a tax on someone other than themselves. Why not, so long as the government doesn’t tax them?
But, guess what? The Founding Fathers set up the rules of the game in such a way as to specifically prevent America from becoming a tyranny-of-the-majority nation, which is why polling questions about increasing taxes are irrelevant. Every person on this Earth has unlimited desires, but those desires don’t give anyone claim to the assets of others.
Lest anyone forget, America is supposed to be a republic. And in a true republic, the fact that 80 percent of the population favors committing aggression against a minority — including the minority of people who are the most financially successful — should carry no weight when it comes to legislation.
The fact is that majority rule violates the rights of others if it forces them to go along with actions with which they do not agree. Progressives would like us to believe that majority rule is morally virtuous. The reality, however, is that majority rule is moral cannibalism, because it makes it possible for one group of people, simply by being in the majority, to do whatever it wishes to those in the minority. In fact, theoretically speaking, majority rule could validate literal cannibalism........

Was Moammar Gadhafi Killed Because His Plans To Introduce A Gold Dinar Currency Threatened The U.S. Dollar? [Video]
http://www.thisis50.com/profiles/blog/show?id=784568%3ABlogPost%3A28181139
What this amounts to is a leader seeking the genuine good of his people and others in his part of the world. I'm hearing a great deal about Gaddafi that makes him sound like a true populist, more a George Washington type than the Hitler-of-the-month they made him out to be.
Anybody out there still hating him? For what, please? Because the media have been trying to get us to for over 40 years? Maybe you're right and I'm insanely wrong. When did Libyan politics become such a huge deal for ameriKans, will somebody explain that?
I fear as much as anything it's that Hillary wantsto be pezident so bad she can take it, and the other despicable Beltway goons have similarly jaded, soulless fixations!
Why, why, WHY would ameriKa care what goes on in Libya if not because truth, freedom and happiness were about to break out there?
Listen to all the PBS and network "news" you want. Listen to Rush, watch Fox. Russia Today's uncensored news and Gerald Celente's plain speaking (even in short snippets) are worth them all 1000 times over.
ameriKa rupturing one country after another for living in the near easy while gentile. It's the "new" world order in the new millennium. Are we having fun yet?

Tinpot dictatorship, cont.: fedgov shills globally for Barry's scribblings
The US embassy in South Korea! BWAHHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA.....

Washington Times: US State Dept. Buys Up Piles of Obama’s Book
http://pjmedia.com/tatler/headline/us-state-dept-buys-up-piles-of-obamas-book/
The U.S. Department of State has bought more than $70,000 worth of books authored by President Obama, sending out copies as Christmas gratuities and stocking “key libraries” around the world with “Dreams from My Father” more than a decade after its release.
The U.S. embassy in Egypt, for instance, spent $28,636 in August 2009 for copies of Mr. Obama’s bestselling 1995 memoir. Six weeks earlier, the embassy had placed another order with the same book seller, Kalemat Arabia, for more than $9,000 for copies of the same book, federal purchasing records show.
Around the same time, halfway around the world, the U.S. embassy in South Korea had the same idea, spending more than $6,000 for copies of “Dreams from My Father”.
One month later, the U.S. embassy in Jakarta, Indonesia, spent more than $3,800 for hardcover copies of the Indonesian version of Mr. Obama’s “The Audacity of Hope,” records show.
A review of the expenditures in a federal purchasing database did not reveal any examples of past purchases by the State Department of books by President Bush or President Clinton. The purchases of Mr. Obama’s literary work mostly, but not always, took place in the months after Mr. Obama captured the White House.

Over a trillion U.S. taxpayer dollars have been spent on wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. Whether you are for the wars or against the wars, it is important for all of us to step back and evaluate what we have really gotten for all of that money.
In Libya, we have actually helped al-Qaeda forces that were shooting at U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan take over the country. Now they have announced that they will be imposing strict Sharia law on all of Libya. After 10 years of having our boys shot up in Afghanistan, the Afghan government is so “grateful” that they are publicly saying that they will side with Pakistan in any future war against the United States. In Iraq, Islamic radicals are beheading and murdering dozens and dozens of Christians and the new Iraqi government seemingly can’t wait to push the remaining U.S. soldiers out of the country. We ran up well over a trillion dollars of new debt to “liberate” these countries, but are they really in better shape than they were before these wars? Are we really in better shape than we were before these wars?
Today, the United States military has at least one base in more than half of all the nations on the planet.
The U.S. spends more than 7 times as much on the military as any other country on earth does......

Pope comes out of communist closet
I have chronicled elsewhere the courageous stands for truth and liberty taken by some Catholic priests. Regrettably, I've also had to chronicle the corruption and rot in which the Catholic Church is enmeshed. Most notably, the problem has been popes that write pure socialism in their bulls, encyclicals or whatever and thinly attempt to pass it off as calls for compassion, charity and kum-ba-yah brotherly love.
Pope John Paul II was no exception. Years ago when I was still ignorant enough to darken the door of a Wal-Mart I found myself passing a book department, with JP2's latest highly touted volume in view. Everywhere I randomly turned in it was the same: the rich countries must take what they have and hand it over to the poor ones, and governments must see to it that it comes to pass.
The ultimate case thus far is pure twenty-first century:
Vatican Calls for 'Central World Bank' to Be Set Up
http://www.cnbc.com/id/45013499
With it, I fear we're going to have to accept the fact that the Roman Catholic hierarchy, like most of the more prestigious hierarchies in the entire world, is all about "redistribution of wealth" -- by force, if need be. In a word, it's communist -- and (are you sitting down?) the ironclad policy of the RCC is that all dioceses and parishes go along with what's handed down. The teachings may be an atom bomb against common sense, the U.S. Constitution and Biblical law and economics, but that is as straws in the wind against the weight of ecclesiastical tradition!
Incredibly, the Rat Singer's new tome has a title 100% in keeping with the liberal media's and the Democrat politicians' fondest wishes -- "Towards Reforming the International Financial and Monetary Systems in the Context of a Global Public Authority". Has the "new world order" buzzphrase ever been embroidered more exquisitely? Does he have Hillary for speechwriter all of a sudden?
I'm no prophet, but will be everything I've got that the communists in Washington won't be crying about "separation of church and state" in response to this. A Baptist pastor doesn't have the right to point out to you which political candidates stand to do you and your family the most economic damage, but the Singer can utter any preposterosities he likes...... he's the POPE, you see.
If there are any Catholics among you my readers, please rest assured that I only point these things out in an effort to save us all from the communist downfall that ruined Russia, China, and lots of Catholic populations worldwide. Marxism is Marxism, whether expressed through the Communist Manifesto or the above "document". "Am I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?" -- St. Paul to the Galatians.
You tell me who's crazier or more evil -- myself in calling for a return to true, Godly modes of free enterprise and responsibility, or the Rat Singer. He's disappointed that the IMF doesn't have the moxie it used to in hosing money all over whatever needs the Bilderberger fat cats imagine in the third world, and wants the UN to take over till a new financial entity can be hatched. Where have we heard this before?
Ah -- those political communists are always the ones that want a gigantic new bureaucracy in response to some crisis. They did not choose to remedy the relatively manageable instability of 18th/19th-century American economics by phasing out paper money -- a device abused in numerous cultures through history -- but rather by setting up the laughably-misnamed "federal reserve". It would in the fullness of time deal not only in trainloads more paper but mostly in THIN AIR! Similarly, when ameriKa was supposedly attacked by Ayrab thugs with box cutters -- miraculously thwarting the third of a billion dollars we were already spending on "defense" -- our response was not to hang the politicians, generals and spooks that allowed it to happen, but to set up an impossibly huge new tribute to Kafka and Orwell and oxymoronically dub it the "Department of Homeland Security"!!!
Homeland Security.... Social Security.... have you noticed that the more the "elite" talk of security, the less of it we actually have? Could that be related to the magic they've worked through their putative War on Poverty and War on Drugs?
I don't think we need another international behemoth dictating policy and channeling working American's wages to third-world dictators in the name of compassion, charity and kum-ba-yah brotherly love. And quite candidly, I think the last thing this world needs is a Pope calling for such a concentrated evil.
WHO ASKED HIM, anyway?

Great commentary -- mysteriously shorn of sourcing!
A really good PN guy sends this item -- without headers of any kind, no doubt just as he received it. OK, the author's name and URL appear at the bottom, but I couldn't quickly find the piece in her site or anywhere else concrete via Google, so somebody else can do the grunt work. I tried!
Call it an occupational hazard, but I can’t look at the Occupy Wall Street protesters without thinking, “Who parented these people?”
As a culture columnist, I’ve commented on the social and political ramifications of the “movement” - now known as “OWS” - whose fairyland agenda can be summarized by one of their placards: “Everything for everybody.”
Thanks to their pipe-dream platform, it’s clear there are people with serious designs on “transformational” change in America who are using the protesters like bedsprings in a brothel.
Yet it’s not my role as a commentator that prompts my parenting question, but rather the fact that I’m the mother of four teens and young adults. There are some crucial life lessons that the protesters’ moms clearly have not passed along.
Here, then, are five things the OWS protesters’ mothers should have taught their children but obviously didn’t, so I will:
• Life isn’t fair. The concept of justice - that everyone should be treated fairly - is a worthy and worthwhile moral imperative on which our nation was founded. But justice and economic equality are not the same. Or, as Mick Jagger said, “You can’t always get what you want.”
No matter how you try to “level the playing field,” some people have better luck, skills, talents or connections that land them in better places. Some seem to have all the advantages in life but squander them, others play the modest hand they’re dealt and make up the difference in hard work and perseverance, and some find jobs on Wall Street and eventually buy houses in the Hamptons. Is it fair? Stupid question.
• Nothing is “free.” Protesting with signs that seek “free” college degrees and “free” health care make you look like idiots, because colleges and hospitals don’t operate on rainbows and sunshine. There is no magic money machine to tap for your meandering educational careers and “slow paths” to adulthood, and the 53 percent of taxpaying Americans owe you neither a degree nor an annual physical.
While I’m pointing out this obvious fact, here are a few other things that are not free: overtime for police officers and municipal workers, trash hauling, repairs to fixtures and property, condoms, Band-Aids and the food that inexplicably appears on the tables in your makeshift protest kitchens. Real people with real dollars are underwriting your civic temper tantrum.
• Your word is your bond. When you demonstrate to eliminate student loan debt, you are advocating precisely the lack of integrity you decry in others.

Call it an occupational hazard, but I can’t look at the Occupy Wall Street protesters without thinking, “Who parented these people?”
As a culture columnist, I’ve commented on the social and political ramifications of the “movement” - now known as “OWS” - whose fairyland agenda can be summarized by one of their placards: “Everything for everybody.”
Thanks to their pipe-dream platform, it’s clear there are people with serious designs on “transformational” change in America who are using the protesters like bedsprings in a brothel.
Yet it’s not my role as a commentator that prompts my parenting question, but rather the fact that I’m the mother of four teens and young adults. There are some crucial life lessons that the protesters’ moms clearly have not passed along.
Here, then, are five things the OWS protesters’ mothers should have taught their children but obviously didn’t, so I will:
• Life isn’t fair. The concept of justice - that everyone should be treated fairly - is a worthy and worthwhile moral imperative on which our nation was founded. But justice and economic equality are not the same. Or, as Mick Jagger said, “You can’t always get what you want.”
No matter how you try to “level the playing field,” some people have better luck, skills, talents or connections that land them in better places. Some seem to have all the advantages in life but squander them, others play the modest hand they’re dealt and make up the difference in hard work and perseverance, and some find jobs on Wall Street and eventually buy houses in the Hamptons. Is it fair? Stupid question.
• Nothing is “free.” Protesting with signs that seek “free” college degrees and “free” health care make you look like idiots, because colleges and hospitals don’t operate on rainbows and sunshine. There is no magic money machine to tap for your meandering educational careers and “slow paths” to adulthood, and the 53 percent of taxpaying Americans owe you neither a degree nor an annual physical.
While I’m pointing out this obvious fact, here are a few other things that are not free: overtime for police officers and municipal workers, trash hauling, repairs to fixtures and property, condoms, Band-Aids and the food that inexplicably appears on the tables in your makeshift protest kitchens. Real people with real dollars are underwriting your civic temper tantrum.
• Your word is your bond. When you demonstrate to eliminate student loan debt, you are advocating precisely the lack of integrity you decry in others. Loans are made based on solemn promises to repay them. No one forces you to borrow money; you are free to choose educational pursuits that don’t require loans, or to seek technical or vocational training that allows you to support yourself and your ongoing educational goals. Also, for the record, being a college student is not a state of victimization. It’s a privilege that billions of young people around the globe would die for - literally.
• A protest is not a party. On Saturday in New York, while making a mad dash from my cab to the door of my hotel to avoid you, I saw what isn’t evident in the newsreel footage of your demonstrations: Most of you are doing this only for attention and fun. Serious people in a sober pursuit of social and political change don’t dance jigs down Sixth Avenue like attendees of a Renaissance festival.

Sickening headlines at Drudge
Trillions or dodecapillions of ameriKans are ecstatic that ameriKa has lynched another head of state. I wonder how many could give even a half-decent explanation as to why, considering that when an activist walked about a beach last Independence day talking to partiers and bathers and filming the conversations, very few could even tell him what the holiday is about.
If ameriKans are so poorly-informed as that about their own country, I'd sincerely like to know what they think gives them (or their politicians) the right to decide how other countries must be run and to bomb them or kill their chieftains to achieve it.
Most of the revelers on this occasion -- the week they "got" Gaddafi -- hate Obummer, Hillary and the rest of our own Hitlers. Should it mean anything to the party animals that these creeps live for the thrill of offing the likes of Gaddafi, Saddam, and bin Ladin?
It certainly means a great deal to me. In fact, I hate to tell you, but lately I find it boils down to hating who they tell us to love, and loving whomever they denounce. It's that simple, and works like clockwork!
By such a blessedly simple system, it's so easy to interpret Hillary's victory speech, that it's anticlimactic!
Drudge has headlines at the moment more telling, perhaps, than he realizes:
KILL BOUNCE: OBAMA MOVES UP TO 44% AT GALLUP...
Grisly death raises questions about Libya's new rulers...
Isn't that thrilling? To the colorful vocabulary of "regime change" (world dictatorship by the US and globalists), "weapons of mass destruction" (a redundancy when every major country has 'em), "troop surge" (known in the FIRST Vietnam as "escalation" -- a dismal failure then too) and "qualitative easing" (stimulation of the fat cats' already bulging coffers), now add "KILL BOUNCE" -- e.g. a scumbucket political failure like Obummer killing somebody Israel doesn't like in order to boost his own popularity stateside!
Enjoy that second article linked above. It's about the breeziest assessment of recreational gore and degradation the art has produced this season! And isn't THIS a yum:
NEXT: McCain raises prospect of military option in Syria...
You know, I was actually telling people this is how it was going to be years ago. They're just going to go through all of Israel's neighbors and give them a spontaneous popular uprising that happens to result in either a situation Israel likes or a worse version of what they went in to cure -- doesn't seem to matter to the powers that be.
But never mind geopolitics and the clearing our out of a few million square miles of real estate so Israel can start its march to open, direct world hegemony. THIS headline, in my HUMBLE opinion, ranks as the most earth-shattering at drudgereport.com,
NEXT: McCain raises prospect of military option in Syria...
.......because you know, all this war and killing is really so the power "elite" can shop easier and cheaper -- not least when being chauffeured into a gas station.
It doesn't work out that way, and all these schemes are just going to ruin everything for everybody, but it's "liberal" GOOD INTENTIONS that matter most, not reality or facts.
Right?

Recent stuff from the backlog -- in no particular order; "IRS-The Biggest Lie and Scam in World History"
Stephen Heuer spoke winningly at last night's PN mtg in Greenville. He is a genuine holocaust victim by dint of having been a highly successful dealer in all-natural supplements who got raided and ruined by the FDA just to put the skeer on his industry. Heuer's products were ruled legal twice during his ordeal and imprisonment, but this fedgov lives by making points whether they have anything to do with reality or not.
Indeed, their points may seem needed to the sheeple at large, but anybody who gives them even half a moment's actual thought will see that politicians only exist to make enough work to keep themselves feeding at the public trough. That's as dignified or logical as it gets!
Heuer urgently needs any moral, business or legal support you can bring him. His site:

So, how can Sean claim he's always been for limited government and fiscal sanity after stumping for all these Republicanoid wars for Israel -- maybe a couple trillion dollars' worth? Ever the gentleman, Dr. Paul discreetly mentions the oceans of money being sent offshore without saying what they've been spent on. Disappointing that he supported the assassination of bin Ladin -- I thought we could count on the good Doctor to always remind people at such junctures that (in so many words) we never had any Ayrab problems till we forced Israel on those people! At least he does point out that backstory here, at which Sean goes blah blah blah about how evil they are, but -- GASP -- also admits that (in so many words) we don't NEED Mideastern oil. Minor detail!
If that first video weren't so similar to watching a sane man attempt to coax a madman to hand over his weapon, it could be pretty passable! Most considerate of Ron not to mention how hard Sean worked to keep him from getting elected prez in 2008......
In video #2, just remember, the cuts of Ron's that Rush rattles off are coming..... whether because the politicians come to their senses or because their terminal stupidity meets its inevitable result.

................This excellent meditation is by one of upcountry SC's best minds -- Chris Golden, the man who actually managed to get Tom Tancredo here to be vetted by the local conservatariat (including me, natch):
“Anybody who knows anything about the federal government knows that there's such an enormous volume of waste, that if you simply had a serious all-all effort to modernize the federal government, you would have hundreds of billions of dollars of savings falling off...But let me start with -- all of you should go to Strong America Now, which is a group that believes if you modernize the federal government, you save $500 billion a year…”
-Newt Gingrich, in last night’s debate
“I think we have to keep a prescription drug component, but we have to pay for it. In other words, we have to have a program that is funded…Now, the reason that that program has actually worked well is it's come in 40 percent under budget because it's a program that uses private sector insurance, not government-run, one-size-fits-all health care” - Rick Santorum
“Well, we shouldn't have never started it [the prescription drug plan] . I voted against it… What we need to do is cut the Department of Education, the Department of Energy, and all these departments, and get rid of them…” - Ron Paul
“Who will proclaim in a campaign speech: ‘I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them. It is not to inaugurate new programs, but to cancel old ones that do violence to the Constitution, or that have failed in their purpose, or that impose on the people an unwarranted financial burden. I will not attempt to discover whether legislation is 'needed' before I have first determined whether it is constitutionally permissible. And if I should later be attacked for neglecting my constituents' 'interests,' I shall reply that I was informed their main interest is liberty and that in that cause I am doing the very best I can.’"
- Barry Goldwater, The Conscience Of A Conservative
The final difference between true conservatives and neoconservatives is a subtle, but fundamental, one: The size and scope of the Federal Government. True, like real conservatives, neoconservatives believe in tax cuts but for a much different reason. Were as true conservatives want tax cuts so as to shrink the Federal Government, neoconservatives want tax cuts to enlarge the Federal Government - so as to finance the Welfare and Warfare State. You may ask: How do neoconservatives expect to enlarge the Federal Government by cutting taxes? Answer: Supply-side economics. According to supply-side theory, tax cuts stimulate the economy so much that they cause the Federal Government to bring in more, not less, revenue. Notice, when supporting tax cuts, neoconservatives like Limbaugh and Hannity invoke John F. Kennedy and not Taft or Goldwater (as a matter of fact, Goldwater voted against Kennedy’s tax cut because it wasn’t offset by spending cuts). Notice how neoconservatives never talk about eliminating taxes, but just cutting them. Also notice how neoconservatives never mention the 10th Amendment or ‘States Rights’. For example, the neoconservative Bush administration, instead of closing the Department of Education, expanded it thereby increasing Federal control over every school in America. School Vouchers, another neoconservative pet idea, would have the same effect over the private schools. Never mind the fact that the U.S. Constitution gives the Federal Government no power as it pertains to education…”
- myself, The Perversion of American Conservatism [2003]
Dear Fellow Republicans, Conservatives, Constitutionalists, and other Patriotic Americans:
On his radio show today, Rush Limbaugh stated:
"You look at Newt Gingrich and you can't help but have the reaction, 'Gosh, what could have been.'"
“Santorum connected great last night. Santorum was fabulous”
"Jon Huntsman and Ron Paul need to quit the Republican Party, join the Democrat Party, and run against Obama."
No one personifies the debasement, both in style and substance, of the American Conservative Movement than Rush Limbaugh.
As the opening quotes make clear, Gingrich and Santorum represent exactly the same big government Republicanism that Goldwater condemned when he criticized Eisenhower’s budget as a ‘Dime Store New Deal’. In all fairness to Ike, however, Santorum and Gingrich support a Tiffany’s Great Society - literally in Gingrich’s case. Only, Paul supports the Goldwater Standard as quoted above.
But Limbaugh says that Santorum and Gingrich are GOP heroes while Paul should join the Democrats.
If this doesn’t demonstrate how the American Conservative Movement has been utterly bastardized, then I don’t know what the hell else does.
Purge Limbaugh.

IRS-The Biggest Lie and Scam in World History
My 30 years of research shows this to be TRUE and CORRECT!
IRS Liens and Levys
IRS-The Biggest Lie and Scam in World History
IRS-probably the three most frightening letters in the English language. This deep-seated fear and loathing serves a very specific purpose. It serves to keep the People of America in submission to an illusion, a lie.
The IRS has a horrible reputation and has earned every bit of it, has by their own admissions committed crimes against innocent Citizens, and continues today to be the “Gestapo” of America. They confiscate more homes, destroy more families, take more money, ruin more lives, and commit more crimes than all the street gangs combined. They are indeed vivid proof that the greatest threat we face, as a nation, is our own Federal "Government." [The County Sheriff: America’s Last Hope. Author Richard Mack].
Here it is in a nutshell. The IRS is a private, debt collection agency for the private banking system known as the Federal Reserve Bank. The IRS is not a government agency. I repeat, the IRS is not a government agency. Never has been, never will be.
The IRS is formerly the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) situated in and with authority only in the Philippine Islands (Trust Fund # 61), and moved into Puerto Rico (Trust Fund # 62). In the 1950’s, with the stroke of the pen, the BIR was transformed into the current notorious IRS and brought onto the 50 united States. This was done without any Congressional authority whatsoever. There is no Congressional authority for the IRS to exist and operate in the 50 states recorded anywhere in any law-books. Again, keep in mind, that the IRS is the “Private, debt collection agency for the private banking system known as the Federal Reserve Banks..............................No time to vet these links, but they should be outstanding:

Mostly, curiously, bizarrely, hatefully, the Israeli curse is virtually never mentioned in 99% of right-of-center opinion. It's the biggest subject in politicals but you'd never know it from the shape of things conservative! I can only go so far with it here, but have extensively documented Israel's evils elsewhere online, and have led several PN meetings on the subject.
.................This article's notable for its content, but even more perhaps for its source:
http://godfatherpolitics.com/1568/seal-beach-churches-admit-they-have-no-answers/
Not surprising that it reached me via Vision To America -- but Godfather Politics is one of those neoconoidal sites that annoys as often as it informs. Tons of political people don't care zilch about religion or the fate of the Faith. If we were all really putting God first -- and I do mean we -- it would be stunning how fast the enemy would clear out.
It certainly is disgusting how many preacher creatures don't believe in God, much less his inerrant Word. In Alvin Toffler's subversive 1970 runaway bestseller Future Shock he predicted that churches were going to reach the point at which they had openly atheist pastors, and that's about where it stands now. Of course you've got a Republican Party run by communists, so nothing should surprise. (Note that it's never the other way around -- a communist entity run by real conservatives. We're just not as interested in lying as the opposition is.)
When Future Shock was published I was still in high school. Our church had an ultra-liberal assistant minister who championed the book no end. I and trillions of other earthlings read it, feeling more dispossessed and marginalized by the minute. Wikipedia's summary
Toffler argues that society is undergoing an enormous structural change, a revolution from an industrial society to a "super-industrial society". This change will overwhelm people, the accelerated rate of technological and social change leaving them disconnected and suffering from "shattering stress and disorientation" – future shocked. Toffler stated that the majority of social problems were symptoms of the future shock. In his discussion of the components of such shock, he also popularized the term "information overload."
..............doesn't give a clue what it was really aimed at doing, as I recall: selling the hideous future we then faced and are now living, getting us to accept the soulless, globalist hyper-modernism that Toffler and his tribe were then force-feeding us, following on earlier phases of the same process via the two world wars, movie cultism etc.
................We may think we have it bad in today's economy, but most of us have never been imprisoned, much less nearly beaten half to death, for our grassroots economics. This video uses the word DEPRESSION, which is -- Twilight Zone-style -- almost as rarely heard as the name of the Zionist bandit ministate!
How economics has been corrupted
http://www.realecontv.com/videos/capital-market-collapse/how-economics-has-been-corrupted.html
Wouldn't you know that Nikolai Kondratieff died by firing squad for pointing out the way Western economics work! The psychopathic Soviet emperor of the time, mass-murdering Josef Stalin, thought that Kondratieff was calling down his economic notions, not the idiotic way the USSR's enemies were doing business!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Kondratiev
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kondratiev_wave
Every time I research something Soviet, it seems to bring up the biggest, most tragic absurdities this life has to offer. Look at this poor man's fate: you can expose your country's enemies' foibles or stand up to your own leaders on theirs, but the result may be the same -- prison, ruined health, shame, end of career, bullets. That's how it is under socialism, and how it's getting to be in the AMERIKAN "workers paradise" right now.
................Speaking of communist tyrants and their chaotic insanity, it seems they've added a notch to their gunstock for "getting" Gaddafi -- and the Zionist-owned ameriKan media are exulting. What they've never explained is how Gaddafi affected THIS country in any way, shape or form. Of course, the Zionist bandit ministate lives in a state of endless heart palpitations over its neighbors and how friendly they are or aren't toward a Zionist takeo0ver of everything.... do you think that could have something to do with it?
Would somebody supply the Constitutional provision that allows the USA fedgoons to run around assassinating heads of state..... excuse me, "exporting democracy", at the cost of thirteen figures to the ameriKan sheeple?

http://godfatherpolitics.com/1568/seal-beach-churches-admit-they-have-no-answers/
Not surprising that it reached me via Vision To America -- but Godfather Politics is one of those neoconoidal sites that annoys as often as it informs. Tons of political people don't care zilch about religion or the fate of the Faith. If we were all really putting God first -- and I do mean we -- it would be stunning how fast the enemy would clear out.
It certainly is disgusting how many preacher creatures don't believe in God, much less his inerrant Word. In Alvin Toffler's subversive 1970 runaway bestseller Future Shock he predicted that churches were going to reach the point at which they had openly atheist pastors, and that's about where it stands now. Of course you've got a Republican Party run by communists, so nothing should surprise. (Note that it's never the other way around -- a communist entity run by real conservatives. We're just not as interested in lying as the opposition is.)
When Future Shock was published I was still in high school. Our church had an ultra-liberal assistant minister who championed the book no end. I and trillions of other earthlings read it, feeling more dispossessed and marginalized by the minute. Wikipedia's summary
Toffler argues that society is undergoing an enormous structural change, a revolution from an industrial society to a "super-industrial society". This change will overwhelm people, the accelerated rate of technological and social change leaving them disconnected and suffering from "shattering stress and disorientation" – future shocked. Toffler stated that the majority of social problems were symptoms of the future shock. In his discussion of the components of such shock, he also popularized the term "information overload."
..............doesn't give a clue what it was really aimed at doing, as I recall: selling the hideous future we then faced and are now living, getting us to accept the soulless, globalist hyper-modernism that Toffler and his tribe were then force-feeding us, following on earlier phases of the same process via the two world wars, movie cultism etc.
................We may think we have it bad in today's economy, but most of us have never been imprisoned, much less nearly beaten half to death, for our grassroots economics. This video uses the word DEPRESSION, which is -- Twilight Zone-style -- almost as rarely heard as the name of the Zionist bandit ministate!
How economics has been corrupted
http://www.realecontv.com/videos/capital-market-collapse/how-economics-has-been-corrupted.html
Wouldn't you know that Nikolai Kondratieff died by firing squad for pointing out the way Western economics work! The psychopathic Soviet emperor of the time, mass-murdering Josef Stalin, thought that Kondratieff was calling down his economic notions, not the idiotic way the USSR's enemies were doing business!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikolai_Kondratiev
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kondratiev_wave
Every time I research something Soviet, it seems to bring up the biggest, most tragic absurdities this life has to offer. Look at this poor man's fate: you can expose your country's enemies' foibles or stand up to your own leaders on theirs, but the result may be the same -- prison, ruined health, shame, end of career, bullets. That's how it is under socialism, and how it's getting to be in the AMERIKAN "workers paradise" right now.
................Speaking of communist tyrants and their chaotic insanity, it seems they've added a notch to their gunstock for "getting" Gaddafi -- and the Zionist-owned ameriKan media are exulting. What they've never explained is how Gaddafi affected THIS country in any way, shape or form. Of course, the Zionist bandit ministate lives in a state of endless heart palpitations over its neighbors and how friendly they are or aren't toward a Zionist takeo0ver of everything.... do you think that could have something to do with it?
Would somebody supply the Constitutional provision that allows the USA fedgoons to run around assassinating heads of state..... excuse me, "exporting democracy", at the cost of thirteen figures to the ameriKan sheeple?
Aren't we ameriKans glorious and wonderful!

Pat Buchanan zings 'em the best -- when in the mood
We had a great PN meeting last night in Asheville with good attendance. As announced, "Dr. D" came and held forth on the subject of the synagogue of Satan, a Biblical subject rarely mentioned from pulpits today! The Asheville club urgently needs more attendees in order to survive. Please let your WNC friends know it's there for them and encourage them to attend -- but be aware that the location may be changed to Hendersonville by next month. Watch PN egroups for updates.
Some beautiful news today via SHNV, i.e. the Southern Heritage News and VIews email digest! This may not sound like much of an issue or victory, but rest assured that in this day and age when such battles are increasingly common, it's BIG cause for rejoicing:
Battle of Plant Wansley
From: cobbslegionscv@yahoo.com
Plant Wansley surrenders, Battleflags restored!
The news broke at approximately 3:20pm on October 18th, 2011, that just an hour earlier the Confederate Battleflags that had been stolen from the graves of 7 Confederate Veterans in the Yellow Dirt Cemetery located inside Georgia Power's Plant Wansley only 6 days earlier - with blessing of management - H A V E B E E N R E S T O R E D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[><] Yes, Praise God - SWEET VICTORY! [><]
The mounting pressures from unrelenting forces finally woke up the "Southern" Company folks that they had not stepped, but jumped head first into a horrible situation by desecrating the final resting places of 7 Confederate Veterans violating numerous Georgia laws, then attempted to cover it up with denial and obfuscation - at one point attempting to forbid visitors into the cemetery itself.
From the initial response to replacing the original missing 7 Confederate Battleflags on October 8th by the Haralson Invincibles Camp # 673, when called upon by descendants of one of the Confederate Veterans thru the heartbreaking and very damning media reports from Heard Citizen, News-Banner, Times-Journal and Carroll Star alerting us the flags have been removed again on October 12th, right on thru to those who answered the call to arms from such groups as the Sons of Confederate Veterans and people like Tommy PoP Aaron and his blog support, Charles Demastus for his ever diligent Southern Heritage News and Views, the excellent youtube video by Chad Smith and the Facebook protest page and web support from Susan Hathaway, strong local efforts from Billy Bearden and Ernie Blevins as well as everyone reading this press release who helped make this moment possible
On this announcement
Thank Y'all very much - YOU HAVE BEEN HEARD AND OBEYED!
HOWEVER, no VICTORY is ever permanent and careful vigilance is always needed to ensure the vanquished do not rise up and repeat their evil deeds. Please do not consider this anything but temporary and we must be on full alert - especially during the next month for any possible corporate maneuvers.
Respecting the 30 day alert status, the time will be used to prepare a defense and strategy should any "permanent plan" not be to the satisfaction of the descendants or the SCV. We know they are using the time as well for their planning.

Guards are posted to ensure the proposed "truce" is honored.
This is a case where the descendants, who not current members of the SCV but planning to join, did much of the work as they had the most ability to claim direct harm, but without support from members of the SCV and many others they could have easily been minimized and run over by the Wansley Plant and Georgia Power.
Again, the descendants of those buried in the Yellow Dirt Church say "Thank y'all, it is truly a Blessing for all you have done for our Confederate ancestors here and throughout America"
This item is also priceless, especially if you're among the few, the aware that have ever been disgusted by this vulgar lingo:This is a case where the descendants, who not current members of the SCV but planning to join, did much of the work as they had the most ability to claim direct harm, but without support from members of the SCV and many others they could have easily been minimized and run over by the Wansley Plant and Georgia Power.

“You Guys”, The Political Term
From: bernhard1848@att.net
“Would you guys like something to drink?”
I could not help smiling at the lady and two men sitting across the table from me in this California restaurant injected into the middle of North Carolina. We had just been deploring the use of this unisex slang expression to mean “ladies and gentlemen” and debating the possibility of asking waitresses to avoid it.
The waitress cocked her head and asked if something was wrong. After a few minutes of embarrassing hesitation, I told her, “This is a lady sitting next to me, not a guy, and the rest of us are men or even gentlemen, not guys or kids or fellows.”
“Then what am I supposed to say?”
When one Southern literary gent at the table suggested “You all,” she protested, “But then I’d sound like a cracker.” We assured her that the best people said “Y’all” and added that if she wanted to talk Yankee, she should talk old Philadelphia and not suburban Des Moines.
“Guy,” whether is derived from the effigies of Guy Fawkes burnt on the fifth of November or, as Mencken believed, from the guy-rope of a circus tent, has nothing to recommend itself as a term of address. Chesterton objected to being called a “regular guy” when he visited America – perhaps he thought he was being accused of being a Catholic terrorist.
The real point in using “guy” is that it is a weapon in the war to eliminate distinctions and to level sexes, ranks and ages into one neutral category that probably includes domestic animals.
Like “citizen” or “comrade,” guys is a political term that does nothing to elevate the waitress but only denies the social reality constructed by men and women, young and old. If pressed, the sweet young thing from Concord might had said she was doing this 50-something old man a favor by treating him as “one of the guys,” but some us old bucks are proud to have got to where we are and can barely tolerate the society of the under-35 guys, chicks, dudes, and hey-mans whose philosophy of life is “I deserve a break today.” Did somebody say “stupid”?

I hope this next one gets your juices flowing, too -- a Confederate flag "nontroversy" in a Michigan public school! Hey, another headline that just swept the country was about a town in New York state recently celebrating its status as the last American berg to surrender to the Glorious Yankee Statist Monist Kumbayah Empire!

What will become of this dustup? Will the schoolocrats say "Wait a minute, Southern heritage is the most God-blessed kind there is.... everybody complaining about these shirts, SHUT UP", or will they say "Don't every show that symbol again or we'll send you for psychological examination and six months on a chain gang"? There's only one way for you to find out: get yourself a free subscription to SHNV -- write Demastus@aol.com.
....................There seem to be two Patrick J. Buchanans -- one that's a neocon fool for anything Republican, one that exposes corruption with unmatched word power. You never know which one you've got till comes out on in the wash. His column published by the (Greenville, SC) Times examiner on September 14, though, is smashing! Please click and read -- you'll be glad you did. Support your local Zionist by curing their insanity with just such materials!
Don't miss the priceless conclusion of it.
What 9/11 Wrought: The Bush Legacy
http://buchanan.org/blog/tag/winston-churchill
Oh -- here's a true master stroke from another great rightist periodical -- the New American magazine. The August 22 number carried an all-too-brief and way too polite aacount of Newt Gingrich as GOP Pezidential candidate. Finally -- FINALLY -- somebody else sees what I did from this clown's first (1990s) entry into political stardom at the time of the so-called Republican revolution:
Prior to the 1994 elections, Gingrich and his Republican associates unveiled a list of agenda items that they pledged to act upon, should they win majorities in the House and Senate. Called the “Contract With America,” the plan received an enormous amount of media coverage at the time..... Lost in the hubbub of policy debate was the fairly obvious point that a “contract with America” — between the federal government and the American people — already existed in the form of the U.S. Constitution; were its limits on government power and spending observed faithfully, no further electoral gimmickry and grandstanding would be necessary.

Urgently needed: sarcasm, ridicule, healthy contempt on the System
The abovementioned qualities are the toxins which, in tiny trace amounts and administered for the right ailments, help keep a body politic healthy. Sacred cows and false gods which are ridiculous are not merely fair game for ridicule; they urgently need it. The horrendous desperately needs abhorring by the people as well as the politicians. But today's sheeple have lost their most basic reflexes and immunities and are hence falling to pieces without even realizing it; decent people shun conflict and controversy as un-nice, forgetting the best way to die of a disease is to ignore it.
Sometimes, though, one of the sheep comes back to himself and runs up and bites a wolf on the leg -- maybe even sending it howling away stunned with surprise. Enjoy these sendups of "BHO" from today's email picks:
Something’s Rotten
http://www.personalliberty.com/conservative-politics/somethings-rotten/?eiid=
Surviving The Republican Establishment
http://www.personalliberty.com/conservative-politics/surviving-the-republican-establishment/?eiid=
Now I'm not the kind who'll condemn a movement like Occupy right off the cuff despite its admittedly gagging socialist blind spots. I think the hordes of protesters might even be issuing a prophetic final warning to the System before it collapses of its own bloated weight and corruption. But BHO deserves any derision he can get. Indeed, the need for calling down a politician as a total fraud and gangster may have never been so urgent! Yet socially proper people, even amongst alleged conservatives, decline to do what liberals fear and loathe most -- turn them into the laughingstocks they really are.
BHO's agenda is purely Bolshevik, but how many people on either left or right are willing to even admit to themselves that he's a dangerous radical, much less a nihilist revolutionary? If my urgency in this matter seems a bit of a stretch, remember please that RIDICULE is what the left used to take over everything 40 years ago under the tutelage of a good Irish boy named Saul Alinsky. Yep, that's how they did it -- it only took enough jeering at things leftists hate, and a whole generation of youth was spewing contempt on its parents and everything they held sacred -- with the parents, alas, happily joining in a lot of the cultural arson themselves.
You who were there at the time surely remember. It was the thing to do!
.........Next I feel moved to comment on the latest death of an Indy Racing god. Car racing is outrageously stupid and vulgar. If the earth is ever visited by aliens and a car race is the first thing they see of us, they can't be blamed for racing back where they came from and filing a report that earthlings are the dumbest, most wasteful beings in the universe.
I have a sacred cow tipping service, in which I'll come in and denounce any stupidity nobody else will. So far it feels very lonely and pays only modestly. My peak performance occurred when Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia died of what the authorities called "natural causes". Wikipedia rehearses the real story for us:
Garcia was sometimes ill because of his unstable weight, and in 1986 went into a diabetic coma that nearly cost him his life. Although his overall health improved somewhat after that, he also struggled with heroin addiction,[3][4] and was staying in a California drug rehabilitation facility when he died of a heart attack in August 1995.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Garcia
By comparison, a headline in Charter's news feed this morning goes
What caused the crash that killed Dan Wheldon?
Various circumstances converged leading to wreck that killed Indy 500 champ Wheldon.
Did you guess that I'm not even going to open the link that came with it? Seriously, now, do you think ameriKa could afford to step back from its obsessions and have a fresh look at them -- or in the mirror?
What killed Dan Wheldon? You don't need the link either, and ameriKa doesn't need to look any further into the matter, because we all know that vanity, bloodlust and decadence are what "converged leading to the wreck" in question. If we're not going to face that fact, it's no use studying the skid marks, ballistics or auto tech from yesterday's disaster.
In particular, I deplore the effect that such shenanigans have on young minds. They know deep down that they're living in a revived Roman Empire even if their elders mostly don't see it. To any thinking person, IMHO, the sight of cars whizzing around and around on a racetrack should seriously depress anyone; the sound they make is the funeral drone of a civilization gone mad with technocracy.

Americo-Marxist taxation in a nutshell: economic cannibalism
Just another anonymous thought-provoker via email -- but it's not just another anonymous thought-provoker via email!
To All My Valued Employees,
There have been some rumblings around the office about the future of this company, and more specifically, your job. As you know, the economy has changed for the worse and presents many challenges. However, the good news is this: The economy doesn't pose a threat to your job.
What does threaten your job however, is the changing political landscape in this country. Of course, as your employer, I am forbidden to tell you whom to vote for - it is against the law to discriminate based on political affiliation, race, creed, religion, etc.
Please vote for who you think will serve your interests the best. However, let me tell you some little tidbits of fact which might help you decide what is in your best interest. First, while it is easy to spew rhetoric that casts employers against employees, you have to understand that for every business owner there is a back story.
This back story is often neglected and overshadowed by what you see and hear. Sure, you see me park my Mercedes outside. You saw my big home at last years Christmas party. I'm sure all these flashy icons of luxury conjure up some idealized thoughts about my life. However, what you don't see is the back story.
I started this company 12 years ago. At that time, I lived in a 300 square foot studio apartment for 3 years. My entire living space was converted into an office so I could put forth 100% effort into building a company, which by the way, would eventually employ you.
My diet consisted of Ramen Pride noodles because every dollar I spent went back into this company. I drove a rusty Toyota Corolla with a defective transmission. I didn't have time to date. Often times, I stayed home on weekends, while my friends went out drinking and partying. In fact, I was married to my business -- hard work, discipline, and sacrifice.
Meanwhile, my friends got jobs. They worked 40 hours a week and made a modest $50K a year and spent every dime they earned. They drove flashy cars and lived in expensive homes and wore fancy designer clothes. Instead of hitting Nordstrom's for the latest hot fashion item, I was trolling through the Goodwill store extracting any clothing item that didn't look like it was birthed in the 70's.
My friends refinanced their mortgages and lived a life of luxury. I, however, did not. I put my time, my money, and my life into a business --- with a vision that eventually, some day, I too, will be able to afford these luxuries my friends supposedly had.
So, while you physically arrive at the office at 9 am, mentally check in at about noon, and then leave at 5 pm, I don't. There is no "off" button for me. When you leave the office, you are done and you have a weekend all to yourself. I unfortunately do not have the freedom. I eat, ****, and breathe this company every minute of the day. There is no rest. There is no weekend. There is no happy hour. Every day this business is attached to me like a 1 day old baby.
You, of course, only see the fruits of that garden -- the nice house, the Mercedes, the vacations... You never realize the back story and the sacrifices I've made. Now, the economy is falling apart and I, the guy that made all the right decisions and saved his money, have to bail out all the people who didn't.
The people that overspent their paychecks suddenly feel entitled to the same luxuries that I earned and sacrificed a decade of my life for. Yes, business ownership has its benefits but the price I've paid is steep and not without wounds. Unfortunately, the cost of running this business, and employing you, is starting to eclipse the threshold of marginal benefit and let me tell you why:
I am being taxed to death and the government thinks I don't pay enough. I have state taxes. Federal taxes. Property taxes. Sales and use taxes. Payroll taxes. Workers compensation taxes. Unemployment taxes. Taxes on taxes. I have to hire a tax man to manage all these taxes and then guess what? I have to pay taxes for employing him. Government mandates and regulations and all the accounting that goes with it, now occupy most of my time. On Oct 15th, I wrote a check to the US Treasury for $288,000 for quarterly taxes. You know what my "stimulus" check was? Zero. Nada. Zilch.
The question I have is this: Who is stimulating the economy? Me, the guy who has provided 14 people good paying jobs and serves over 2,200,000 people per year with a flourishing business? Or, the single mother sitting at home pregnant with her fourth child waiting for her next welfare check?
Obviously, government feels the latter is the economic stimulus of this country. The fact is, if I deducted (Read: Stole) 50% of your paycheck you'd quit and you wouldn't work here. I mean, why should you? That's nuts. Who wants to get rewarded only 50% of their hard work? Well, I agree which is why your job is in jeopardy. Here is what many of you don't understand ... to stimulate the economy you need to stimulate what runs the economy. Had suddenly government mandated to me that I didn't need to pay taxes, guess what? Instead of depositing that $288,000 into the Washington black-hole, I would have spent it, hired more employees, and generated substantial economic growth. My employees would have enjoyed the wealth of that tax cut in the form of promotions and better salaries. But you can forget it now.
When you have a comatose man on the verge of death, you don't defibrillate and shock his thumb thinking that will bring him back to life, do you? Or, do you defibrillate his heart? Business is at the heart of America and always has been. To restart it, you must stimulate it, not kill it. Suddenly, the power brokers in Washington believe the mud of America are the essential drivers of the American economic engine.
Nothing could be further from the truth and this is the type of change you can keep. So where am I going with all this? It's quite simple. If any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, my reaction will be swift and simple. I fire you. I fire your co-workers. You can then plead with the government to pay for your mortgage, your SUV, and your child's future. Frankly, it isn't my problem anymore. Then, I will close this company down, move to another country, and retire.
You see, I'm done. I'm done with a country that penalizes the productive and gives to the unproductive. My motivation to work and to provide jobs will be destroyed, and with it, will be my citizenship.
While tax cuts to 95% of America sounds great on paper, don't forget the back story: If there is no job, there is no income to tax. A tax cut on zero dollars is zero. So, when you make decision to vote, ask yourself, who understands the economics of business ownership and who doesn't? Whose policies will endanger your job? Answer those questions and you should know who might be the one capable of saving your job. While the media wants to tell you "It's the economy Stupid" I'm telling you it isn't.
If you lose your job, it won't be at the hands of the economy; it will be at the hands of a political hurricane that swept through this country, steamrolled the Constitution, and will have changed its landscape forever. If that happens, you can find me in the South Caribbean sitting on a beach, retired, and with no employees to worry about.
Signed, Your boss
This just in, too -- an artful collage of sight and sound on media manipulation of the presidential thing:
Who Cares That RON PAUL Wins Straw Polls? LOL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jQgGUZxADY&feature=youtu.be
Finally for today, a link that I earnestly hope you will click and read. It's nothing to look at -- no bold, no italic worth mentioning. It's often a bit of a yawn -- but urgently needs reading and sharing by HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE!
Don't believe what Waller has to say about the "war" or "terror" if you think it's too over the top, too cynical, maybe even paranoid. Don't, really don't go with the abstruse "conspiracy theory" on it if that's your inclination. But if you're going to claim that the respected and renowned host of the Freedom Watch show is lying or imagining things on this subject, I really can't be of further help to you.
Andrew Napolitano is also a former New Jersey Superior Court Judge. When he speaks, ameriKa truly should listen. It doesn't happen every day that a huge "mainstream" TV network like Fox Business Channel gives a true, PC-busting patriot his own nightly TV show!

Gandhi's stand for freedom and independence started with tax protest; prissy religionists plead with pussy-footing politicians re the invasion
Mahatma Gandhi has been studied, interpreted, reinvented and prostituted in more ways than one can count. Most of the time, surprise surprise, he's pressed into service as an icon of brotherly love and barefooted "noble savage" perfection. Nothing negative is allowed to filter through the wall of silence around any history the cultural Mrs. Grundys of the left don't like.... but you have the establishment spin on most things, and then there's the stark reality of them.
In this case, the stainless hero has been exposed as the worst thing in the liberal lexicon: a "racist!".............
Did ML King know about Gandhi’s racism?
http://www.zimbio.com/Ghandi+quotes/articles/23/ML+King+know+Gandhi+racism
But don't expect any retractions, mea culpas, or cultural revolutions over this gross lapse of consistency among the Stalinists of journalism, education et al.! They're allowed to make all the mistakes they want and be forgiven anything, indeed to have their gaffes and spasms of sheer nuttiness treated as so much water over the dam. When caught in some real crimes against the people, Slick Willy would endure some weeks of public disgust, then breeze that it was surely "time to move on", already -- rather than bringing the well-intentioned li'l ol' first boy scout to justice. Whether the public notices it or not, we've gone right along with it, too.
Mainly Gandhi is useful as an example of civil disobedience in the face of tyranny. The left uses him there, we can reference him much better. I read some of his biography as a college student and remain impressed with his populist determination and moral courage, despite the fact that thousands died in the sectarian violence that independence brought to India. A recent news link crystallizes the fact that what he did with salt in getting the decolonization program rolling was as much a tax revolt as the Boston Tea Party:
Do Peaceful Protests Work ? – Special Report
http://www.panamalaw.org/fall_of_the_american_empire_10-15-11.html
What Gandhi himself did was peaceful but let's look at the root of this. The British used to tax those in India on salt, making a fortune on it. The people were forbidden from making or taking their own salt from sea water. Who is this starting to sound like. Anyway Gandhi showed the people publicly himself making salt from sea water and started the peaceful protests. This was a tax protest, plain and simple.
If you'll notice, we spend quite a lot of time highlighting the vast differences between how different crowds perceive things, with the main ones being the truth, the left=wing view and the fake conservative take represented by not only the neoconservative politicians and their bajillions of dupes among the sheeple, but their equivalents in other positions of authority.
Sadly and sickeningly, this includes at least 95% of clergy in all religions across the board. Major case:
Evangelicals Implore GOP Presidential Hopefuls to Tone Down Immigration Rhetoric

Ain't that purty? It would be one thing for the black-robed sissy who pulpetizes each Sunday in your local Methodist church to come out and try to suppress major truth this way, but leaders of the Southern Baptists and of... Liberty University!?!?!?!?
I see it there in black and white, but simply can't force myself to believe it. Would you be so kind as to write and let me know if it shows on your screen too? Maybe I've got a virus or something -- this just doesn't seem possible somehow, because for half a century liberals have been screaming that the SBC and LU are among the most insanely, dangerously "conservative" entities on the earth, virtually indistinguishable from the Nazis or Italian Fascists!
This could get scary. Come on, the Southern Baptist Convention, the ultimate bastion of conservative Christianity (in the view of most people, surely), and the university founded by Jerry Falwell....
have come out with a political position stance on the main subject governing the fate of the civilization that produced them, i.e. cultural and ethnic unity....
....and that stance is in keeping with the likes of Time, Newsweek, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, Socialist Parties A and B (the Dems and Reps), plus the Communist Party and the fondest wishes of every third-worlder across the globe!?
It's just like with the politicians. Never mind the wishes of the contributors and constituencies of the two bastions, never mind the genuinely conservative worldview they were born to affirm: SOMEONE ELSE OUT THERE wants Baptists and conservative Christian college students to turn radically leftward, and is willing to be booed for it!
The same Jerry Falwell blasted and blistered by the media for years over his putative wish for a moral, Christian American population has headed Liberty University for FOUR DECADES. You cna't tell us that he in his heart of hearts wants Virginia, or his own neighborhood, or the USA to take in yet more of the world's "wretched refuse", in the words of the twisted poem affixed to the statue of Liberty?
Who or what else could be exerting pressure on Jerry, Dr. Richard Land and Dr. Matthew Staver? WHO IS BRIBING THEM, and by how much cash? Tell us, please. Unveil the mystery. Either that, or admit that there's a massive conspiracy pushing everything, absolutely everything, the exact opposite way from where the people of every country want to go.
I found this item at AMREN.COM, whose genteel editor Jared Taylor adds a one-sentence summary to each link he features, often tearing a subject or its protagonists to shreds with just a few quiet, pithy words. This time, the headline and the three-word commentary add up to a smashing blow to the prissy, pussy-footing perpetrators of the crime described, and of its reportage in the leftwing media:
Evangelicals Implore GOP Presidential Hopefuls to Tone Down Immigration Rhetoric, Yahoo! News; 22 comments
What immigration rhetoric?
How right Mr. Taylor is! What are Messrs. Land and Staver crying about? "Immigration rhetoric?" WHAT immigration rhetoric, please? You've got a choice between the lies and posturing of the fakers (some of it flimsily pretending to mirror the popular view) and the honesty of Ron Paul on a good day.
What immigration rhetoric? Doesn't count if it's obvious pandering, now -- and that cuts out every one of the Non-Pauls, with Ron Paul only getting a fair grade much of the time.
What immigration rhetoric?
Wouldn't you say the above-linked article could amount to nothing more than scientific attitude-engineering and mental sheep-herding?
