The Government Hoax Print

The government hoax is probably the oldest, most pervasive and stubborn of hoaxes. It’s the belief in non-existent “states” and “nations” and that “government” is both legitimate and necessary. In the geographic area of the North American continent commonly referred to as the “United States,” it’s claimed only “government” can provide the service of protecting “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” This is nonsense if only for the reason “government” has no duty to protect anyone and their property.

One has to question the doubt of a meme that is not questioned by anyone else?

Or, at least no one that matters.

It’s not as if our questioning is going to give any of the politicians, bureaucrat, or sheeple a reason to lose any sleep. But for our own sanity, let’s just admit that it’s a fiction. A fiction that can kill all that oppose it. Think of that lone protester Tiananmen Square.

Gooferment may not exist, but those tanks do!

RANT: “fair and clean” means “biz as usual”!

Assembly hopeful petitions for rescue funds
Upset he couldn’t participate in TV debate
Wednesday, October 31, 2007
BY DARRYL R. ISHERWOOD

*** begin quote ***

Libertarian 14th District Assembly candidate Jason Scheurer has filed a request for rescue funds as part of the Fair and Clean Elections program for what he says was a snub by a local television station.

Scheurer said he was not allowed to participate in a debate on News 12 New Jersey last week, while the four major party candi dates in the race were part of the event. Scheurer said he was told there was no room for him in the debate, though he is the first third party candidate to be certified under the Fair and Clean Elections program, which gives candidates public money in exchange for their pledge to forego traditional campaign donations.

***and***

Scheurer has already railed against the clean elections program after he received far less money than his major party opponents. While Republicans and Democrats in the district who qualified received in excess of $520,000, Scheurer has received less than $30,000.

*** end quote ***

Silly Libertarian candidate,you didn’t think that “fair and clean” meant anything other than handouts to the duopoly of RepublicratDemican candidates.

It’s a sham. It’s all an illusion to pull the sheeple’s own wool over their eyes.

Just refuse to play along or play nice.

NEWJERSEY: Hold your nose and get a GRIP!

Friday, November 2, 2007

In the NJ 14th Legislative District:

Democrat Singh (or write in my name or NOTA none of the above)

Libertarians Scheurer & Cragle

And right down the republican line against all the incumbents.

Sorry, doesn’t matter if you’ve been good or bad. Out you go!

# – # – #

In defense of GRIP if it accidentally knocks off a “good person”, there is a modest argument that explains it. If the “good person” was part of the corrupt organization, then that person failed in their duty to fix the problem. So “we” are firing that person for being “ineffective” as opposed to all the others that we are firing for being “crooks”. It really doesn’t matter why you were fired. (That’s what they tell you in “job search” school. It’s reality. Deal with it.) So you were either part of the problem or powerless to fix the problem. Either way, it’s time for you to go.

# – # – #

And, why do politicians and gooferment bureaucrats have pensions anyway? Most voters don’t!

NEWJERSEY: Ballot Question #1 — Vote NO!

Ballot Question #1 Debated
Wednesday, October 31, 2007 – Millennium Radio

*** begin quote ***

“Public Question #1 is the keystone for property tax relief permanency,” says Assembly Speaker Joe Roberts, “A constitutional dedication of sales tax revenue for property tax relief ensures that property tax relief programs like this year’s rebates are not politically waylaid in the future.”

*** end quote ***

Let’s see we take money from the left hand pocket (income tax) and put it in the right hand pocket (property tax relief). Of course, there’s the cost of handling it.

Argh!

Just vote agains incumbent politicians and “no” on everything.

Stop cooperating with the gooferment’s nonsense.

NEW TURKEY RECIPE

Scroll down

turkey sexy

May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have never a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

*** end quote ***

As the the big fat old turkey hisself, I fail to see the humor in this. But since Frau laughed, I thought it was blogable.

LIBERTY: Imagine if they gave a holiday season and NO ONE flew home!

Wolves and Sheep
by Andrew Young

Third, millions of innocent Americans are subjected to unconstitutional searches and seizures of their person and property every single day. This happens, of course, at the airports, where TSA thugs force them to take off their shoes, belts, and all metallic objects before walking through a metal detector. As Napolitano points out, these bozos are adept at harassing innocent Americans and spotting harmless objects such as water bottles, deodorant cans, and toothpaste tubes. However, when it comes to spotting things that might actually be dangerous, such as, say, bombs and guns, they have proven remarkably incompetent. Napolitano notes that Department of Homeland Security employees and even a college student were able to smuggle knives, guns, a bomb, and other dangerous objects through TSA checkpoints. Since the publication of Napolitano’s book, the TSA’s own studies have proven it incompetent, finding that TSA screeners missed up to 75% of fake bombs.

***End Quote***

If this wasn’t so serious, it would be humorous.

Like the Keystone Kops on steroids.

Personally, I won’t travel by air unless my arm is twisted.

One has to strike back any way one can.

Imagine if they gave a holiday season and NO ONE flew home!

“Sorry <insert favorite family member’s name>, I am not coming home for <Christmas, Thanksgiving, Winter Solstice> because of the Gooferment’s TSA makes it humiliating to fly.”

That would be stunning.

Think the sheeple will do it?

POLITICAL: Eleven-million people got to see this relaxed and funny champion of freedom

Wednesday, October 31, 2007

*** begin quote ***

No question the Tonight Show was the best media appearance ever for Ron. Eleven-million people got to see this relaxed and funny champion of freedom, prosperity, and peace allowed to talk without interruption. How many were persuaded, or at least fascinated and decided to learn more? A huge number. Indeed, I am convinced this show will be seen as an historic moment in the story of libertarianism. Good for Leno, who disagrees on the war and the income tax and much else, but was a great host.

*** end quote ***

Looks like Ron Paul hit it out of the park on Leno!
