The Suicide Pact

Whereas there has been some confusion regarding the precise role and powers envisioned for the federal government;

And

Whereas this confusion has resulted in unfortunate mis-understandings between the federal government and the states and the citizens of the various states;

Be it resolved that We the People, represented by the lowest common denominator, with or without our consent, do hereby offer

The Final Amendment to the United States Constitution

ARTICLE THE LAST

SECTION 1. Congress hereby reserves to itself the right to spend whatever monies, derived from whatever source on any project of its choosing.

SECTION 2. In the event congress is unable to find sources of revenue, it shall have the power to print money directly [...]

The REAL problem with airport security

and with financial reform, and health care, and Social Security, and MediCare/caid, and terrorism is this;

We have a government that thrives by driving us with fear. If they can scare us, they get more power. It is like a Pavlovian parlor trick.

Create FEAR = get POWER.

etc, etc, ad nauseum.

It is not that these problems (the supposed underlying problem) don’t all have some risks associated with them. Poverty, injury, death. But the government has a vested interested in overblowing the danger in order to get us to release power to them. In fact, all too often, we DEMAND they take the power and do something.

We will never be free as long as [...]

A Tale of Two Futures

I could have kept Dickens original title describing two cities. One is a city on a hill providing light to the world, a beacon of liberty as envisioned by our forefathers. The other city is a Pompeii-esque backwater ossifying under a mountain of debt, excessive taxation and suffocating regulation destined for the ash heap.

One of these two cities is our future. We have delayed the decision for as long as possible. Much as the population of Pompeii, perhaps too ignorant to understand the signs and thus the danger when Vesuvius began its eruption, did not flee until it was too late; we too have delayed a choice, ignoring the signs and minimizing the danger. If we choose not to decide, [...]

Who Needs Money?

Image via Wikipedia

It would seem evident that Republicans will take the house, the senate is a toss-up and the RGA will do well. At this point the size of the victory is the big question. It won’t really matter if DeMint wins with 70% or 71%. We are coming down to a point where a few extra dollars here or there may help decide a close election. Michelle Bachmann, for example seems to be OK on cash and sending her money at the expense of say Christine O’Donnell may be a bad choice.

According to RCP, the races below are the ones mostly in play.

So who has money and who needs money? Which races are literally going to turn on a dime?

US Constitution 21 Pages. Republican Pledge 21 Pages.

Image by Thorne Enterprises via Flickr

They could have just reprinted the US Constitution and said, “There, we promise that.”

Guess that wouldn’t be sexy like Twenty-One pages of wonkish gibberish.

It also shows a complete lack of understanding concerning what did work about the original Contract. Its brevity. Hence its marketability.

Think Google. Who clicks past page one? If you are going to send a message the gist of it had better be on page one.

The average person likely won’t get past the second paragraph of this document. And like the major flaw in the original Contract there is very little in this doc that is permanent.

Even if fully enacted we are just an election away from the next Obamanation.

The [...]

What do you do with 3-5 million unemployed, angry youth?

Image via Wikipedia

When you left your magic suit in the last phone booth.

Kids that have spent 12-16 years being indoctrinated into the belief

Your nation is a nasty mean place without any relief.

No jobs to be had and boy are they mad.

Mad at mom

Made at dad

Mad at a government that promised more than it had.

But wait, there is the ONE. His greatness nearly eclipses the SON.

He got vision, he got plan. Barry Saetoro that is our man.

What do you do?

Fund a National Service Corps

The last great depression

saw a Reichstag procession.

Yes, we’ve seen that before.

Heil Hitler they said

You’ll bow down a knee

You’ll his name shout with glee

Heil Hitler [...]

Libertarian v RINO

Image via Wikipedia

When you see people who say they would vote for a RINO but never a libertarian it makes you wonder. What is the difference between a libertarian and a RINO that reasonable men could arrive at such a conclusion?

I created a handy table illustrating the differences between libertarians and RINOs on issues of the day and yesterday.

Principle Libertarian RINO Low Taxes No Taxes What Will Get Me (Re-)Elected
Or WWGM(R)E for brevity Drug War End it WWGM(R)E Gun Rights The more the merrier WWGM(R)E Free Speech They never shut up. I think that pretty much says it all. WWGM(R)E Religion Most religious people are kooks but they have a right to be kooks. WWGM(R)E Free Press Totally dude [...]
