Gov. Jon Corzine has finally come straight out and defended gay marriage. This is good news for those of us who believe that gays and lesbians deserve the same rights as the rest of us.

And, why is the government involved in regulating marriages anyway? We know it was originally to keep the races from marrying so why continue the practice at all.

Microsoft has released licenses for the Windows Vista operating system that dramatically differ from those for Windows XP in that they limit the number of times that retail editions can be transferred to another device.

Read the article and, if you still want to upgrade, then stop reading this blog. And, have another glass of the Microsoft Kool Aid.

Supreme Court Ignores Appeal in DNA Database Case
***Begin Quote***
The Supreme Court this week chose not to hear the appeal of a
Washington, D.C. resident who argued that the collection of his DNA for
a federal database violated the Fourth Amendment. EPIC filed an amicus
brief in support of Lamar Johnson’s petition and emphasized three
particular flaws within the DNA collection program. First, the DNA
profile stored in CODIS contains more information than the unique
identifier the government claims. Second, the DNA database allows for
partial profile searching that implicates relatives of profiled
individuals. Third, the retention of the blood sample from which the DNA
profile is generated presents an opportunity for future privacy
violations.

Like the gun records that weren’t supposed to be kept for more than a few days, the government lies!

GUNS: GUN CONTROL is about despotism
Friday, October 13, 2006The Second Amendment is a issue today only because of the reality behind it. It’s force. Pure, naked, and unadulterated power. Simple put, you’re either a sheep, or a sheep dog. Take care of you and yours. Don’t depend upon the gubamint (e.g., Waco, NOLA, and all the social programs that enslave us).
Politicians who fear the people seek to disarm them. People who fear their government’s intentions refuse to be disarmed. The Founders understood this. So, too, does every tyrant who ever lived. The dead old white guys made it number two for a reason. It backs up number one!
Forget it at your peril.
American gun owners in the aggregate represent a strategic military fact and an impediment to tyranny. They represent a political challenge to home-grown would-be tyrants. You don’t make lamb chops out of sheep dogs. Oppress an armed citizenry? Ask those Russians who came home from Afghanistan or Chechnya. Ask the families of all those Russians who didn’t come home.
If the people cannot be forcibly disarmed against their will, then they must be persuaded or tricked to give up their arms voluntarily. This is the siren song of “gun control”, which is to say “government control of all guns”, it’s victim disarmament.
Ask the Warsaw Ghetto Jews what you should do? Look at what they did with less than a few dozen weapons. Ask the families of those who were gassed.
Genocide requires the government to disarm it’s citizens.

Next steps
Please log on to see how Vanguard is committed to providing a safe and secure online investing environment.

It destroys the ability to automatically logon. I objected but as usual no one listens. Arghh! If they weren’t such a good investment option, I’d toss them over the side.
