The Coming of the White Obama!

Former President Bill Clinton is heading to California to fully endorse San Francisco’s Mayor Gavin Newsom for the Governorship of California.   If you think Barack Obama is clueless on how to run a government, you better watch your peas and cues and point your radar screen to the meteoric rise of Gavin Newsom in [...]

Democrat.

Today, that is a strange word, because the folks who claim that mantel are decidedly different from anyone claiming to be a Democrat from the past.   However, it needs to be noted these people who claim today to be Democrats are not to be associated with Democrats of the Roosevelt or even Truman eras.  Though [...]

How Did We Get Here?

Remember the 1960’s, the decade of free love with juicy girls ready to wrap their arms around anyone? It came with a huge drawback though, a counter-culture that flipped the bird towards the old fuddy-duddy establishment. It did not matter is that old establishment stood on moral ground. Anyone not within the counter-culture was deemed [...]

The Pledge of Allegiance

For some twenty years, President Obama sat in his chosen church on Sundays listening to a hate monger who took up the cause of any left-wing extremist black power hate crazy government conspiracy truthing idiots. For all that time, both him and his Jacky-O wanna be wife had front row seats, bathing in the manipulating [...]

American Capitalism Gone With A Whimper

The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

Has our foreign policy over the past 100 years been wrong?

Ron Paul thinks it is possible and after a lot of reading the past 5+ years I agree with him.

The Return of Rightwing Paranoia

Anthony Gregory points out that conservatives now oppose the state despite Obama enacting Bush-like policies. Most importantly, conservatives must learn to oppose aggressive foreign policy during this era that they are out of power, less they make the same mistakes as last time. The conservatives have better instincts when they are out of power, but [...]

Thoughts on George W. Bush

The past eight years have been interesting ones. We have seen an attack on the United States by radicalized Muslims, we have seen one large recession and the beginning of what could be a major depression, we have seen our military send troops to two different countries in large numbers and we have seen China [...]

John Stuart Mill on nationality and representative government

This is a chapter from John Stuart Mill’s Considerations on Representative Government, taken from the University of Adelaide Library Electronic Texts Collection. An interesting read and particularly applicable to today’s America. Chapter 16 Of Nationality, as connected with Representative Government. A PORTION of mankind may be said to constitute a Nationality if they are united [...]

Picking Apart The United States

Igor Pararin has been in the news a lot the past two months for his remarks on the breakup of the United States. The recent report in the Wall Street Journal expands on Igor’s previous comments and sets his prediction for 2010 when the USA will finally collapse. In September 1998, he attended a conference [...]

The Round Table

“When the Round Table is broken every man must follow Galahad or Mordred; middle things are gone.” -C.S. Lewis A writer at the journal First Things gives an explanation in this article: “His point was that the time may come when the societal bonds are so ruptured that forceful confrontation will become necessary with those [...]

The Stock Market Rally, The Inevitable Crash, And Why We’re Here

Today’s stock market rally was predicted by blogger Vox Day last week. I have read his blog occasionally for the past few years but only recently did I start seeing posts about Austrian economics and notice that he really does understand how the market works. The truth is the market has a long way to [...]

The Real Meaning of Thanksgiving: The Triumph of Capitalism over Collectivism

A great article on the real meaning of Thanksgiving: The less industrious members of the colony came late to their work in the fields, and were slow and easy in their labors. Knowing that they and their families were to receive an equal share of whatever the group produced, they saw little reason to be [...]

Is deflation really bad?

Deflation is not the evil people and economists make it out to be. The same economists who say “inflate, zero percent interest rates now!!” are the ones who said everything was perfect in the economy during the 2003-2005 period. The market is demanding inflation because the money supply has been too large. The supply of [...]

My Presidential Endorsement

I am announcing my endorsement for president. It is mainly based on the “consent of the governed” philosophy. Going back hundreds of years to the founding of the United States we see the first society that was founded explicitly by the consent of the governed. As written in the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson: [...]

The Crisis We Face Has its Roots in Democracy

Once again America is faced with two choices for president, and once again it boils down to a “lesser of two evils” mentality to most voters. This mentality has plagued our two party politics for too long. For this reason I am taking a stand on non-voting for the first time since I became eligible [...]

THE President on Banking and Money

Taken from an LRC post. Note “The” president. “I sincerely believe … that banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies, and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale.” — Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816. “Paper is [...]

Europeans in New Zealand before Captain Cook

This might throw the history books for a loop. Scientists are baffled after carbon dating showed the skull, a woman’s which was found near the country’s capital, Wellington, dates back from 1742 – decades before Cook’s Pacific expedition arrived in 1769.

Failure of Democracy, continued

Two articles today gave me some new thoughts on the problems with democracy and the crumbling of the Republic. First, a critique of the idea of democracy by Charley Reese: We are and always have been too large a country for a true democracy. That’s why the Founding Fathers created a republic. In a true [...]

Secession News

A large number (but not a majority) of Americans are still supporters of secession. The breakdown on who supports it and who is against it is here. Secession was the foundation of America in 1776. The year 1787 and 1861 became the years of anti-secession and rampant big government nationalism.
