Web Censorship Bill Sails Through Senate Committee | Epicenter | Wired.com

Web Censorship Bill Sails Through Senate Committee | Epicenter | Wired.com

The sponsors of this bill assure us that censorship is not it's intent. OK... May be.

But why should I believe it? These guys have completely burned through their credibility with the American people. We can safely assume lobbyists and staffers wrote the bill. We can safely assume the legislators have not read the bill. We can safely assume that it is packed with completely unrelated pork and power grabs, like the vending machine regulations included in the Obama health care bill.

Of course I may be wrong, but I wouldn't bet on it, and the legislators have given me no reason to be anything other than completely distrustful of them.

I'll read the entire bill myself and hopefully find I am wrong. Yeah right!

One Brave Hero

On Veterans Day, honoring Marine who lost limbs in Afghanistan, but not spirit

Today is a day when I walk around with men and women like this on my mind. I often think of our brave defenders and their sacrifices, but on Veterans day it's constant.

I think about my cushy life and the men and women that deal with the incredible challenges of military life and the horrors of battle. Those with wounds they'll carry around their entire lives are truly special.

To all my Veteran friends and family - thank you. My country, my family and I owe you our very lives. God bless you.

ObamaCare is Either Wonderful or It's Not. Which Is It?

McDonald's, 29 other firms get health care coverage waivers - USATODAY.com

ObamaCare has been passed, so we can now find out what's in it and apparently not all is wonderful. McDonalds and 29 other companies get exemptions. Exemptions from the wonderful goodness or the horrible problems that bill creates? If from the goodness what kind of sense does that make. If from the problems it causes, why don't we all get exemptions?

Typical double standard illegal behavior from the progressive elitists. Have you had enough yet? This is what you get when they think they have a mandate. The destructive manipulation knows no bounds.

We the People will not shut up!

'Get sane!' Councilwoman's on-camera meltdown

Thank goodness that we have video and the Internet. They can no longer get away with the incredible abuse of their power. Power to the people!

Mark Levin V Gloria Allred - Fraud exposed!

The Mark Levin Show

Listen to this... man it is good! One of the few people that can overpower the great BS artist. Unfortunately this exposure of the fraud may not make much difference for the Meg Whitman campaign, but it is incredible to hear.

These #@$%^ people need to be gone!

FOXNews.com - Ohio Democrat Curses Voters Who Oppose Health Care Law

Incredible lack of class. It's just ONE of the reasons these guys need to be gone!

A Time for Choosing - Version 2.0?

The American Spectator : Mike Pence's Hillsdale College Speech on the Presidency

This speech may be considered Mike Pence's breakout speech, much like Reagan's historic "A Time for Choosing" speech of 1964. Written in a classic tone, it is completely unlike the typical MTV award acceptance speech of our current crop of celebrity politicians.

Heavy on history, values and duty, it is an incredible dissertation on the American Presidency. A must read!

They Were Who We Thought They Were!

A Black Man Goes To Glenn Beck's Rally - HUMAN EVENTS

The left's reaction to Glenn Beck is complete astonishment and bewilderment. This American's story will only compound it.

If you want to know what it's all about just read what he writes. It really is that simple. God bless him.

Pre-Crime Technology To Be Used In Washington D.C.

Pre-Crime Technology To Be Used In Washington D.C.

They are going to have their hands full with Congress and the crim... bureaucrats there!

When the going gets tough, the tough get taxed!

Bagels With a Slice of Tax | NBC New York

Be prepared for more very tough tax enforcement as the economy continues to struggle. Governments will not voluntarily bite the bullet and make the necessary changes in spending that are required in times like these. They will always tax more first.

That's one of the reasons the elections this fall are the most important in generations. If we don't get fundamental change this November in the way the governments work in our country we may never turn things around. Vote for tough responsibility, not feel good platitudes, they don't pay the bills.

The Insanity is Enough to Drive You Crazy

LA unveils $578M school, costliest in the nation - Yahoo! News

California is imploding and LA proudly unveils the ultimate in fiscal/generational crime. I am astonished at the wildly irresponsible behavior of our Governments and authorities reported every day. What does the future hold? How much more insanity can be displayed? At some point they've got to run out of room to push the boundaries of crazy irresponsibility. Don't they?

Good news is, at some point they will be held responsible and we'll have massive undeniable evidence of the extent of their crimes.

Governments appetite is insatiable!

Philly requiring bloggers to pay $300 for a business license | Washington Examiner

Sad thing is it turns upstanding, law abiding citizens into criminals. Governments must pay their employees (unions) and if the choice is putting you out of business or themselves - doesn't take a rocket scientist to know who will get the short end of the deal.

You make $50 in three years and Philly says you owe them $300. No, doesn't make sense, but it doesn't have to. You comply or go to jail. That's the power we have given them and now that times are really tough they are using it. Won't be the last story you hear of outrageous injustice against citizens. Next one may be you!

Interview with one of America's Greatest Thinkers

Conservative News, Views & Books - HUMAN EVENTS

Thomas Sowell's straight thinking, straight talking common sense is so clear and powerful I am reminded of Fredrick Bastiat's "The Law". They both present things you mostly already know, so clearly, so powerfully that it's like you just finally got it.

Harvard University fund sells all Israel holdings - Globes

Harvard University fund sells all Israel holdings - Globes

I've posted a couple of entries in the last couple of days that address the increasing expression of mainstream anti-Jew bigotry. Recently many noteworthy people, media outlets and institutions are exposing their racism. Often with surprisingly transparent anger and resentment

In nearly every instance the hateful bigotry the perpetrator rationalizes it with cliches of Jewish domination or abuse of some victim or another.

Here's yet another example, though much more subtle. The absence of any explanation on the part of Harvard creates it's own suspicion about their rationale.

Good news is sides are being chosen and we are informed more each day about who our true enemies are.

Canary in the Coalmine: Europe’s “Decoy Jews” | The Brussels Journal

Canary in the Coalmine: Europe’s “Decoy Jews” | The Brussels Journal

It's good to know that not all Europeans have fallen for the modern progressive line. This sad story tells of the resuscitation of mainstream anti-Jewish thought and action.

The site has much interesting content from the seemingly oxymoronic European Conservative perpective.

Great series of videos presenting the lessons we have or should have learned over the last 50 years in politics in America. I love the Internet!

Christian life and character of the ... - Google Books

Christian life and character of the ... - Google Books

The more I research and learn, the more I discover how wrong I have been about my own culture and country. All of the anti-American and anti-religious pablum I have been fed all my life has been hooey. Admittedly I have been a willing victim of this ruse. But no more.

Out of print for more than a century, this book details the history of Christianity and the civil institutions of America. Difficult to argue with, it's got to be the ACLU's worst nightmare.

A challenging read at 819 pages, it's a compelling story that echoes DeTocqeville's experiences and impressions in America just a couple of decades before.

Required reading for any 21st century American patriot.
