California’s Day of Reckoning: May 19 by Gary North

*** end quote ***

Decades ago, my friend M. Stanton Evans came up with a law, comparable to Murphy’s Law. I came across it in a delightful compilation of these laws, a book titled “The Official Rules.” It is designated as Evans’ Law of Political Perfidy. “When our friends are elected, they aren’t our friends any more.”

*** end quote ***

I like this! We have no “friends” in the halls of power. We never do it seems. Argh! I’ve formed the opinion that we have to “kill” the overreaching gooferment. No other solution can put the genie back in the bottle. No way to limit its power. No way to keep it from escaping its supposed “chains of the Constitution”. Lysander Spooner was right!

LIBERTY: We need nuke power to be free!

Death of a Civilization
by David Deming

*** begin quote ***

While Western Civilization sits confused, crippled with self-doubt and guilt, the Chinese are rapidly building an energy-intensive technological civilization. They have 2,000 coal-fired power plants, and are currently constructing new ones at the rate of one a week. In China, more people believe in free-market economics than in the US. Our Asian friends are about to be nominated by history as the new torchbearers of human progress.

*** end quote ***

Al Gore and his liberal pals will kill us.

We should be building nuclear reactors for power like there is no tomorrow. There won’t be. Why can France do it, but we can’t?

LIBERTY: gay marriage affect you?

How does gay marriage affect you?
from American Thinker

*** begin quote ***

If past is indeed prologue, the organized, concentrated and continuous assault by a small percentage of zealots will ultimately wear down the resistance of the larger, less focused, non-committed majority.

*** end quote ***

The Constitution’s Tenth Amendment reserves that to Several States. Thus the Federal Government should have NO role in the definition of marriage.

The States really should not have any role in defining marriage either since it’s a “church” thing.

The heritage of marriage licensing is racial discrimination.

So, “marriage” should be left to the civil society; the gooferment should MYOB and butt out.

imho!

LIBERTY: Rights are inalienable

Thursday, May 14, 2009

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124223286506515765.html

News Alert from The Wall Street Journal

*** begin quote ***

The Obama administration is weighing plans to detain some terror suspects on U.S. soil — indefinitely and without trial — as part of a plan to retool military commission trials that were conducted for prisoners held in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The proposal being floated with members of Congress is another indication of President Barack Obama’s struggles to establish his counter-terrorism policies, balancing security concerns against attempts to alter Bush-administration practices he has harshly criticized.

*** end quote ***

Another campaign issue / promise up in smoke.

Don’t real;y care about the lying.

BUT!

THe Bush Admininstration had Gitmo to keep the prisoners from getting Fifth Amendment and other rights.t us, next it

(Using my Judge Judy law degree and reading the Constitution, I think rights are inalienable regardless where on the Earth the government is operating. But my opinion matters not.)

The Obama Adminsitration seems to have a new reading of the Fifth and where it applies.

That scares me!

As Pastor Martin Niemîller taught us, next it woon’t apply to us as they herd us to the camps.

Remember my previous blogs. Just take out the first one and the they will soon run out of thugs.

LIBERTY: Buchanan points the way for the GOP

Monday, May 11, 2009

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=97455

The winning issue for GOP
Pat Buchanan
Posted: May 08, 2009

*** begin quote ***

Why is the party in trouble? Simple. Dubya got a hold of the keys, got high on neocon hooch, and crashed and rolled the family SUV.

He launched an unnecessary war against a country that had not attacked us. With his utopian No Child Left Behind scheme and his Medicare drug plan, he did his passable imitation of LBJ, and blew a hole in the budget.

Touting globalism, he presided over the loss of one in every four U.S. manufacturing jobs and ran up $5 trillion in trade deficits. He refused to defend the Mexican border against an invasion, then pushed an amnesty for the invaders.

This was no Reaganite. This was the neocons’ apprentice.

{Extraneous Deleted}

If the Republican Party wants a future, it will become again the party that stands on the principle that “No discrimination means no discrimination,” that stands with the victims of state bigotry, and that stands up to hypocrites like the Jim Crow liberals of New Haven.

*** end quote ***

# – # – #

To return to power, the GOP has to return to the Taft – Reagan wing of the party. Principles of smaller government will win. We can’t afford the nonsense that substitutes for wisdom in DC.

San Francisco Muni begins to enforce imaginary no-photos policy
Posted by Cory Doctorow, May 7, 2009 6:45 PM

*** begin quote ***

The blogger at What I’m Seeing is a prolific photographer of San Francisco’s rapid transit system, and thus has fallen afoul of its imaginary no-photos policy, with a threatened arrest:

*** end quote ***

What happened to the First Amendment?

The rapid transit is part of the gooferment.

No doubt about that!

LIBERTY: GM along with the banks equals AMTRAK aka fascism

Amtraking Automakers
By J. Robert Smith

*** begin quote ***

The odds that the federal government will ever get its hooks out of Chrysler or General Motors are slim to none, regardless what President Obama says. Why? In one word, Amtrak.

*** end quote ***

Doesn’t anyone else see that this is fascism?

Government Motors and the banks becoming like the post office!

Argh!

LIBERTY: Schiff on the Chrysler bankruptcy

Monday, May 4, 2009

Peter Schiff on the Chrysler bankruptcy.

In a seven minute video, he makes some excellent points: turing Chrysler into the Post Office or Amtrak while trying to keep the jobs. Unfortunately, those resource tied up in Chrysler must be freed up. And, the government’s bankruptcy court will be at the end of it all the government’s bankruptcy court.

I agree that we have to stop the government from guarantying things — car warranties is another unwarranted intrusion.
