During the 1700s, America called them Loyalists, humanists, the Enlightened, Jacobins. During the 1880s-1930s, America called them Darwinists, Marxists, populists, secularists, socialists, atheists, progressives. During the red scare of the 1940s and ’50s, America called them socialists, unionists, communists and communist sympathizers. During the 1960s, America called them liberals, baby boomers, hippies, yippies, radicals, anarchists, […]
Recently, Republican presidential candidates Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry have been directly attacked by the propaganda press in a shamelessly virulent manner because they dared to question leftist groupthink regarding two of liberalism’s holiest tenets: 1) global warming, and 2) evolution. Scientist and evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, perhaps the most famous atheist and fanatical adherent […]
It is impossible to properly understand President Obama and what animates his treasonous policies unless one properly understands those who taught him, inspired him and the tactics he has adopted to contemporary Democratic Party politics with singular efficiency and fanaticism, including: Sun Tzu, Machiavelli, Darwin, Marx, Nietzsche, Lenin, Al Capone, Alinsky and Castro, among many […]
Did white guilt + black victimhood = Obama in ’08? Will white guilt + black victimhood = Obama in ’12? When Rush declared on Inauguration Day 2009, regarding the presidency of Barack Obama, “I hope he fails,” the liberals went wild in a fascist mob frenzy, equating Rush’s statement of affirmation essentially as a racist […]
Paraphrasing one of my many perceptive readers who also favors a gold standard: Since governments produce nothing of any real value, in order for government to grow, it must extort and exploit the money supply. By artificially inflating the money supply, it can fund its own leviathan growth by the promiscuous printing of valueless paper, […]
The gold standard is when the value of a country’s money is tied to the amount of gold the country possesses. The economic advantage of a gold standard is that artificial currency (e.g., paper money) is backed by a fixed asset of real value. It presents a self-governing and stabilizing effect on the economy. One […]
For a Ponzi scheme to be successful in politics and economics it must exploit three tendencies of human nature: 1) envy (I desire what you have); 2) greed (I will do whatever it takes to get what you have); and 3) willful ignorance (I didn’t know that minus defense [20 percent], 61 percent of America’s […]
[U.S. Supreme Court Justice Benjamin Cardozo, commenting on the perversity of the exclusionary rule, contemptuously remarked—“The criminal is to go free because the constable has blundered.” Cardozo understood that “fidelity to law” meant having law practically apply to real life situations. In this article the author argues that in a post-9/11 world one can no […]
No matter how mad the plan is – Fraternité, the “New Soviet Man,” the Master Race, the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, Building a New Society, ObamaCare – a [liberal] mob will believe it. In the world of the liberal, as in the world of Robespierre, there are no crimes, only criminals. – Ann […]
This rational view of election law under a constitutional paradigm is not a new concern for those who advocate real and tougher campaign finance disclosure laws. The battle has been ongoing for almost a century now.5 Take the case, Citizens Against Rent Control v. City of Berkeley, the Court held: “The integrity of the political system will be adequately protected if contributors are identified in a public filing revealing the amounts contributed; if it is thought wise, legislation can outlaw anonymous contributions.” 6 This is a clear, unmistakable utterance of ‘black letter law’ from the Supreme Court. Yet, in the area of campaign finance disclosure laws, its pronouncements are largely ignored, unenforced and with any authority and influence.
“The corruption, crime, and incompetence of the D.C. government has been an embarrassment to our nation’s capital for decades. It is long past time that Congress restored the honor and integrity of George Washington to the beautiful city which bears his name.” ~ Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), speaking on the BOWSER Act “It is […]
Fifth Circuit’s Ruling against “Nasdaq Board Diversity Rule” Safeguards Meritocracy Over Mediocrity
“The evidence presented by Nasdaq in its rule proposal, contrary to its claims, does not show that board diversity provides better returns for shareholders.” ~Excerpt from a Manhattan Institute led amicus curiae brief in the case of Alliance for Fair Board Recruitment vs. SEC. “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the […]
The Keep Nine Amendment: A Permanent Solution to Threats of Court-Packing
“I think that was a bad idea when President Franklin Delano Roosevelt tried to pack the court. If anything would make the court appear more partisan, it would be that. So, I am not at all in favor of that solution. Nine seems to be a good number. It’s been that way for a […]
