Ev’ryone Wishes for Silver and Gold

December 23rd for many people is a very special day, as it is just two days before Christmas. for many families depending on work schedules and vacation plans they are forced to celebrate Christmas on Christmas eve and then they travel to see their distant relatives on Christmas day. So for many children the magical moment of waiting for Santa to arrive and open presents the next day happens on December 23rd. For me the date is very special as it marks the anniversary of when I proposed to …

H.R. 6416 Life vs Liberty

WARNING! THIS POST CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES!
Congressmen Ron Paul has introduced a new piece of legislation (H.R. 6416) in regards to the airport full body scanners and pat downs that have become a hot button issue as of late. The legislation is quite simple, short sweet and to the point as I believe all good laws should be. The bill is only one paragraph long, leaving no excuses for your representatives, or should I say servants, not to read it.
Yesterday, public servant Paul introduced this legislation to the congress …

How liberals and conservatives use fear-mongering to promote statism

When President Obama announced a new $50 billion stimulus plan Labor Day weekend, conservatives scoffed — and rightfully so.
Who does this guy think he’s fooling? After the $700 billion TARP bailout, the auto manufacturer bailout, and an $800 billion stimulus, does this president actually think a measly $50 billion is going to successfully turn around an economy where greater sums have failed? But the president and his party have a ready reply for such naysayers: “Imagine if we did nothing?” This open-ended question will undoubtedly continue to provide cover …

California Prop. 19 Marijuana Vote

Next week, when Californians go to the polls, they will have an opportunity to vote on a ballot proposition to legalize various marijuana-related activities. There are many fervent supporters and opposers that have made their opinions clear.
Those in opposition (which include 99.99% of the elected Republican leaders in the state) of the initiative that would decriminalize possession of less than an ounce of marijuana think it would be a travesty and would lead to more drug use. Newsflash – 79,000 Californians were arrested in 2008 alone for an …

Georgia to eliminate the drivers license?!

The General Assembly (of Georgia) finds that:
(1) Free people have a common law and constitutional right to travel on the roads and highways that are provided by their government for that purpose. Licensing of drivers cannot be required of free people because taking on the restrictions of a license requires the surrender of an inalienable right;
(3) Where rights secured by the Constitution of the United States and the State of Georgia are involved, there can be no rule making or legislation that would abrogate these rights. The claim and exercise …

Don’t Tread On Me!

“And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.”
-The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America
A homeowners association is a group of stuck-up people living in a community who make all the decisions as far as what you can and can not do on, and to, your property. For instance many gated communities have rules that say you can not park your RV in front of …

Smoke Smart!

The other day I was listening to the radio and a commercial came on for a tobacco shop in the area called Custom Blends. Due to restrictions on such ads thanks to the board of health, the FCC, the surgeons general and the other quasi government agencies, they could not talk much about their product line or services. This is nothing new, I remember years ago when laws were passed making it illegal to advertise cigarettes on bill boards here in the Commonwealth of PA.
So this commercial was …

$100,000 Bills?

On December 24th, 1913 the Federal Reserve act was passed into law and now the nations money supply was handed over to a small group of private bankers. Woodrow Wilson was the sitting president and ultimately the man responsible for this fallacy. He later said in regret,
“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote …

Judge Stops Prop. 8

Neo-cons all across the country are outraged that a federal judge striking down California’s ban on same-sex marriage Wednesday. The problem with the neo-con position is that they are pushing for a Constitutional Amendment to the Bill of Rights defining marriage as between one man and one woman. Our founding fathers would be pissed! Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America:
“Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes”
Translation: the Constitution should not …

“Special” Brownies Under Attack from Senate

Last week your servants (politicians in the Senate) spent time and money debating and eventually settling on a bill that would toughen penalties for pot brownie eaters. Yes, while President Obama was (rightly) signing a law that reduces prison sentences for crack offenders (and I’m not talking butt crack, plumbers), the Senate was raising concern about a bunch of loser teenagers eating laced brownies.
This must have been pushed primarily by the Religious Right-wingers…no, it was pushed by ultra-liberal Democrat and Senator from California Dianne Feinstein, who comes from a …
