“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!” – Samuel Adams |

The Tea Party is working successfully within the system while taking it on. In sharp contrast, the Occupy movement seemingly took the line that the system cannot be fixed from within, and so does not bother. The frustration of the Occupy movement is understandable, given the corrupt state of our political and financial institutions. But they have missed the primary target, which are the government policies that created the credit bubble in the first place, wrecked the economy, and left future generations with a debt so large it cannot be repaid.
I think the battle we have seen over the past year or so in Wisconsin–as Gov. Scott Walker and fellow Republicans have worked to rein in decades of runaway socialist largess at taxpayer expense, and the hideously childish behavior of Marxists in Wisconsin–can succinctly be described as a war between the takers and the producers.
KTVU TV in San Francisco reports a band of thugs went out Monday night (gearing up for Marxist May Day?) and vandalized a police station and several nearby businesses and vehicles. One SUV had the window knocked out and a flare tossed inside. These marauders weren’t clearly identified as Occupy Wall Street protesters, but consider that this is the OWS modus operandi. Property destruction and contempt for law and order is what the OWS movement does best. Dollars to dimes, there’s no doubt: this was the OWS crowd.
The director of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover, died MAY 2, 1972. For 48 years, under eight Presidents, J. Edgar Hoover oversaw the Federal Bureau of Investigation, becoming famous for his dramatic campaigns to stop gangsters and organized crime. Hoover established the use of fingerprints in law enforcement and successfully tracked down well-known criminals. FDR gave Hoover the task of investigating foreign espionage and left-wing activist groups.
The wind energy industry got some more hot air knocked out of it recently. Discovery News reports, “wind farms actually warm up the surface of the land underneath them during the night, a phenomenon that could put a damper on efforts to expand wind energy as a green energy solution. Aside from killing a half-million birds and bats without penalty every year, are wind farms now contributing to the so-called global warming crisis?
I came across a promotional video for a campaign to abolish the word “illegal” when referring to people who are in our country illegally. Yes, that is correct. These leftists who are pushing for the dismantling of United States national sovereignty and promoting open borders are seeking to hijack the very language we use to describe criminal aliens. Of course, that is nothing new.
A great illustration of Barack Obama’s new “Foward” campaign slogan, as well as the “progressive” nature of Progressivism, otherwise known as liberalism.
It looks like the Marxists with the Occupy Wall Street movement are moving up a notch and graduating to full-blown terrorism. Drug use, defacating on police cars, insulting police and destroying public/private property wasn’t enough for these America-haters. As CNN and other outlets are reporting, a group of Occupy Cleveland goons conspired to blow up a 4-lane bridge south of Cleveland, Ohio.
You give them an inch and they’ll just keep fighting for more inches, says Steve Cheyne, a local Klamath River farmer and board member of the Bucket Brigade. He is referring to the many environmentalists and government agencies pushing for restoration of the Klamath River in Oregon and also for the removal of four dams within the river.
Pro-life Democratic congressional candidate Woodrow Wilcox is fighting the unfair tactics of leaders of the Democratic Party in Indianapolis. Wilcox is challenging pro-abortion Congressman Andre Carson in the Democratic primary on Tuesday. Wilcox complains that the leaders of the Indianapolis-Marion County Democratic Party have refused to give him a list of current Democratic precinct committeemen and that the Democratic Party representative on the Marion County Election Board voted to refuse to give Wilcox and other unslated Democratic candidates a list of Democratic Party voters which Indiana law requires be made available to primary candidates.
Take a look at the press releases from progressive organizations that deny voter fraud is a serious problem and the organization that appears to be out in front these days is the George Soros funded Advancement Project. DOJ attorneys are “philosophically opposed” to enforcing Section 8 of the 1993 National Voter Registration Act, says J. Christian Adams, the former DOJ voting rights section attorney.
With each passing day it becomes more apparent that President Obama has little respect for the intelligence of his ideological opponents. Stymied by existing law limiting the government’s involvement in the ethically troubling area of “scientific” human embryonic stem cell work, the President crafted a workaround based on rhetorical hair-splitting, issued an executive order, and the dollars began flowing. But Judge Royce Lambert saw it for what it was: a distinction without a difference.
I think we’d all like to be able to generate electricity using a method that is completely clean and has absolutely zero unpleasant byproducts. However, since we have thus far not even come close to finding a way to squat down and push out such a method, grownups realize that coal and oil are the only viable energy sources for the foreseeable future. President Obama is apparently not in this number, since he is carrying out a campaign to bankrupt the coal industry with useless and counterproductive environmentalist regulations.
MAY 1, 305 AD, the most powerful man in the world, Emperor Diocletian, stepped down from ruling the Roman Empire. He had required all the military to worship pagan Roman gods, thus forcing Christians out of the military. With Christians out, he used the military to persecute Christians with extreme severity.
In the middle of an event to extol the virtues of the U.S. Constitution and “American Laws For American Courts,” the audience learned first-hand how easy it is to lose their freedom of Speech and Assembly. Amid shouts of “What about free speech?” from the audience, the Allegan Police Department ordered the event shut-down.
Feb. 9, 2012. You can put it in the history books now. That was the day the $15.6 trillion national debt surpassed 100 percent of the $15.4 trillion Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Based on the latest data by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, the economy just grew by $142.2 billion in the first quarter, or an annual rate of 2.2 percent. That compares to data from the U.S. Treasury showing the national debt grew by $359.6 billion at an annual rate of 9.4 percent.
Have you ever wondered why America is having such trouble competing in the global market? Have you ever wondered why the American economy is struggling? The answer is simple.
Your investment appreciates in two ways. First, the value of the company appreciates by inflation, which generally has averaged about 4.5%. Second, the company has earnings that bring an additional 6.7% return. Sometimes a portion of these earnings is paid out in dividends. Other times the earnings are reinvested to grow the value of the company by opening more stores or buying other companies. Regardless of how the earnings are used, the total return in dollars is around 11.2%, about 6.7% over inflation.
The size of the U.S. doubled APRIL 30, 1803, with the Louisiana Purchase. Nearly a million square miles, at less than three cents an acre – it was the greatest land bargain in history! For fifteen million dollars, France sold its land west of the Mississippi, called the Louisiana Territory, because Napoleon Bonaparte needed money quickly for his military campaigns.
First, I would ask myself: how did our ancestors build America from an agricultural colony on the edge of civilization into the number one manufacturing and commercial nation the world had ever known. Why reinvent the wheel if round ones still roll? The expansion and growth of America was based upon a foundation of hard work and innovation born of adversity.
Harvard Law School was embarrassed recently when one of its graduates, the putative President of the United States, demonstrated that he was unaware that the supreme Court has constitutional authority to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional. I have already proved that Art. I, Sec. 8, next to last clause is what authorizes Congress to assess the fee from ship owners who use the federal dock-yards. Now I will show you where the Constitution grants authority to Congress to require adult citizens to get armed!
A simple truth, sent to me by Dr. Theo, on the different flavors of socialism.

Leading the charge at the Battle of Trenton, a musket ball struck his shoulder, hitting an artery. He recovered and continued to fight for General Washington, becoming friends with French officer Lafayette. His name was James Monroe, born APRIL 28, 1758.
