Kansas, Oklahoma Approve Religious Veto on LGBT Adoptions

Saturday, May 5, 2018

(From AP News) State lawmakers in Kansas and Oklahoma have approved legislation to grant legal protections to faith-based adoption agencies that cite their religious beliefs for not placing children in LGBT homes. Supporters of such measures argued that the core issue is protecting a group’s right to live out its religious faith, while critics saw them as attacks on LGBT rights.

I’m sure that it is MUCH more important to get children into loving homes; than to avoid LGBT homes.

To paraphrase Oprah, “you get a child, you get a child, and you get a child.”  Obviously, the recipients have to pass muster as good people, but that’s should be assumed.

Let’s get the children OUT of the State system.  Priority One.

“Money Is Gold — and Nothing Else”

Friday, May 4, 2018

This post “Money Is Gold — and Nothing Else” appeared first on Daily Reckoning . Following the Panic of 1907, John Pierpont Morgan was called to testify before Congress in 1912 on the subject of Wall Street manipulations and what was then called the “money trust” or banking monopoly of J. P. Morgan & Co. In the course of his testimony, Morgan made one of the most profound and lasting remarks in the history of finance.

Morgan: Not always. That is an evidence of banking, but it is not the money itself. Money is gold, and nothing else.

Congressman Proposes Banning Assault Weapons

Friday, May 4, 2018

“No one wants to take away your guns.” How many times have you been in an argument with a gun grabber and they uttered that very phrase? I’m not even talking about a variation of that phrase, I mean those exact words in that exact order.

Source: Congressman Proposes Banning Assault Weapons

*** begin quote ***

Instead, we should ban possession of military-style semiautomatic assault weapons, we should buy back such weapons from all who choose to abide by the law, and we should criminally prosecute any who choose to defy it by keeping their weapons. The ban would not apply to law enforcement agencies or shooting clubs.

*** end quote ***

Anyone have any doubt what the “Democrats” want to do?

Can you spell “genocide”?

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: The government school is the sacrament of the American religion?

Friday, May 4, 2018

https://tomwoods.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=77713d21ff56f1c126607d2c5&id=e307b0d337&e=39307912ab

FROM TOM WOOD’S EMAIL

*** begin quote ***

Our most recent episode of Contra Krugman — my weekly podcast with Bob Murphy that takes apart a Paul Krugman New York Timescolumn — took on Krugman’s claims about education, teacher salaries, and spending.

The government school is the object of veneration of the American religion.

Therefore, it’s become impossible to view it objectively.

But that’s what we did in our episode.

For example, surveys of adults in a variety of subject areas, from science to history to government, finds most unable to demonstrate even basic competence. It’s a disaster.

This after 13 years in the government’s system.

Just days ago the National Assessment of Educational Progress, a project of the U.S. Department of Education, reported that 65 percent of American eighth graders are not proficient at reading, and 67 percent are not proficient in math.

Students emerge from their 13 years, furthermore, without a single skill that can command a decent wage. In the age of the Internet, they’ve been taught none of the basics of how to make an online living.

Now if the private sector generated such atrocious results, we’d never hear the end of it. Why, these fatcats care nothing about education or the poor. Just their own profits!

But since it’s the government, we get…silence. Oh, and demands for more money.

(If the schools were run by Walmart, do you suppose these folks would accept the “we need more money” excuse?)

*** end quote ***

Gooferment Skrules are a disaster in every dimension, imho!!!

There were two great “definitions”:

  • The Federal Government is an insurance company with an army.
  • The State Governments are educational companies with police forces.

So true!

Seems like “We, The Sheeple” need to separate “insurance” and “education” from Gooferment.

Argh!

FEC hit with lawsuit over ignoring civil complaint accusing Clinton, DNC in election scheme ($84 MILLION in donations improperly distributed?)

Thursday, May 3, 2018

We need to turn this into a poster. That the Hillary camp did this, and to this point has gotten away with this is typical Washington/Clintonish corruption. On a pretty big scale though. Of course it does seem that the Clinton campaign was committed to “going big”. (From Fox News) “Based on publicly available FEC records, repeatedly throughout the 2016 presidential campaign, HVF would purportedly transfer funds to its constituent political committees, which included between 34 and 40 state parties,” reads a passage from a copy of the complaint. “On the very same day each of these transfers supposedly occurred, or occasionally the very next day, every single one of those state parties purportedly contributed all of those funds to the DNC.” The complaint filed against the FEC said previous reports showed a series of transactions in which the HVF disbursed contributions to its state party committee members — and they would receive the funds on the same day.

SECURITY: Don’t reuse passwords

Thursday, May 3, 2018

It’s World Password Day

Passwords are in the spotlight today and it’s an important reminder to reconsider our online security routine. Our recent research project, The Psychology of Passwords, shows a startling reality of unsafe online practices. Here’s a little preview of the habits that make hackers very happy:

 59% mostly or always use the same password

 53% have not changed passwords in the last year

 64% want to easily remember their passwords
From this, we’ve learned that consumers are using the same easy-to-remember password for multiple accounts (despite the increase in cybersecurity threats and breaches).

Don’t let yourself be one of these stats – participate in World Password Day! Refresh your passwords today and secure your digital life.

PBD: Substitute Veggies for Meat

Thursday, May 3, 2018

https://www.care2.com/greenliving/what-is-the-natural-human-diet.html

What Is the Natural Human Diet?

What can our nutrient requirements, metabolism, and physiology tell us about what we should be eating?

There are three broad theories about evolution and food. One is that humans have become adapted to grains and other products of the agricultural revolution over the last 10,000 years.

Two is the paleo view “that 10,000 years is a blink of an evolutionary eye, and that humans are adapted to paleolithic diets with a lot of lean meat,” but why stop there?

The third theory is that the last 200,000 years “is a minute of the evolutionary year” when we were mostly Stone Age humans and represents just the last 1 percent of the roughly 20 million years we’ve been evolving since our common great ape ancestor.

GOVERNACIDE: Alfie Evans — a STOP sign on the way to US “single payer” health care

Wednesday, May 2, 2018

Alfie Evans: Another Child Sacrifice on Britain’s NHS Altar
By Joe Herring American Thinker — April 28, 2018

*** begin quote ***

Like the Nuremburg laws that made the atrocities of the Nazis all perfectly legal, even obligatory, England has adopted legislation that permits the doyens of the NHS to abrogate the rights of both patient and family with little more than a formal request to supine family courts, increasingly eager to burnish the reputation of their empty-suit, single-payer health care system. 

Alfie suffers from a degenerative brain disorder of unknown origin, and it is the opinion of his medical team at Liverpool’s Alder Hey Pediatric Hospital that little of his brain remains and that further treatment or life-sustaining efforts would not be in the child’s “best interests.”

In Britain’s socialized medical system, second opinions are typically given by other NHS physicians, chosen not by the parents or the patient, but by the attending physician who gave the first opinion.  Unsurprisingly, second opinions in the NHS rarely overturn the first.  In this case, however, Alfie’s parents were able to force the hospital to release records for outside review.

Unsurprisingly, Alder Hey’s prognosis has not been confirmed by outside medical professionals.  Indeed, numerous outside experts vehemently disagree with Alder Hey’s conclusions.

*** end quote ***

Has anyone seen the similarity between Obama / SCOTUS / Trump care and the VA, the Indian Healthcare “don’t get sick after July” system, Medicare, and Medicaid?

It’s not about “health”, “health care”, “health care insurance”, or something else!

It’s about control.

Everyone derided Sarah Palin’s “death panels”.  But she WAS spot on.  

If you think about money as “society’s IOUs”, then you should get all the “medical care” you’ve earned or can get by ‘go fundme”.

TINFOILHAT: The Murder of Martin Luther King Jr. — How to expose the truth?

Tuesday, May 1, 2018

https://www.lewrockwell.com/2018/04/phillip-f-nelson/the-murder-of-martin-luther-king-jr-how-the-myths-were-created-and-sustained-for-fifty-years/

The Murder of Martin Luther King Jr.: How the Myths Were Created and Sustained for Fifty Years
By Phillip F. Nelson
April 28, 2018

*** begin quote ***

Huie, and later the numerous other authors repeating his fiction, made a series of bald-faced lies, even referencing a series of news articles that purportedly stated things that they provably did not. When the earliest books were written—two to eight years after the murder of Dr. King—Huie counted on his hope that no one would track down the articles he cited.  These were not inadvertent mistakes; they were coldly calculated untruths, meant to transform a common man capable of relatively minor unlawful acts into a vicious murderer and stalker, which he was not.

Fortunately for truth-finders (but unfortunately for Huie’s scions and apologists) those lies have been revealed by something Huie had, during his own lifetime, no reason to fear: The existence of something called the Internet, which came along a few decades later, and made it easy to prove his key assertions were untrue.  Within Who REALLY Killed Martin Luther King Jr.? The Case Against Lyndon B. Johnson and J. Edgar Hoover, it will be shown how the original distortions were accomplished, and why, as we demolish the foundation upon which they were constructed.  In its place, a compelling and corrected account will be presented, one which conforms to the truth as revealed in the accounts by the truth-telling researchers—Weisberg, Lane & Gregory, Melanson, Emison, Ray, Barsten and many other contributors—as noted above.

The larger perspective of the murder of Martin Luther King Jr.—as designed, plotted and executed by the highest-level men at the top of the hierarchy, at the FBI, CIA, Pentagon and White House—will be presented, conclusively proving that it could only have originated with the instigation of J. Edgar Hoover and Lyndon B. Johnson.  Their direct ties to the key actors—Johnson’s well-established linkage to Tennessee Governor Buford Ellington and Ray’s attorney Percy Foreman, and Hoover’s ties to Memphis Police and Fire Department Commissioner Frank Holloman, for example—are the glue that held the plot together in real time and now provide the proof of all the other connected links that ensured its success.

*** end quote ***

It’s no fun being the curmudgeon who doesn’t believe anyone anymore; maybe ever again.

Just a quick review of the facts presented — like the picture of how the shot was taken — begins my suspicion. 

We KNOW that LBJ and the Deep State was up to their elbows in the JFK assassination.  So it’s not a huge leap of faith to say this killing needs a expose before it’s too late.

Argh!

A New Type Of Poverty Is Crushing The Middle Class

Monday, April 30, 2018

As if the current global monetary system didn’t put the middle-class at a structural disadvantage versus the wealthy, by taxing them disproportionately with inflation, encouraging dissaving and taxing labor (ordinary income) much higher than capital (long-term gains), we now find out that the middle class has a new reason they’re being pushed into poverty: banks are willingly trying to put them there.

Enlarge (credit: Bernard Van Berg / EyeEm ) A French-born American has now sued his home country because, he claims, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has illegally seized a domain that he’s owned since 1994: France.com . In the mid-1990s, Jean-Noël Frydman bought France.com from Web.com and set up a website to serve as a “digital kiosk” for Francophiles and Francophones in the United States.
