Ed Gov, Not Fed Gov

For some time now, I have been considering running for Governor of the State of Idaho. I heard that! Stop laughing. Seriously. Hear me out. Most view me as being right wing, some extremely so. I occasionally characterize my politics as to the right of Attila the Hun, so I feed into that perception. Fact is, though, that I am staunchly pro-Constitution and favor self reliance and self determination above most things. Why Don't We Do It on the Shoulder of the Road? In an attempt to reach a broader swath of Americans whom I perceive to be increasingly disaffected from government, I have moderated my rhetoric lately, but neither my beliefs nor my core message. I see "middle of the ...

The apparent police vendetta against dogs continues. This time, officers in Buffalo, New York, stormed into a home during the course of a search for drugs, gunned the dogs down in front of the family, and then left without making any arrests. According to the Buffalo News, the raided home was the residence of Rita M. Patterson and her father, Daniel J. Patterson. Rita's boyfriend William F. Hanavan, who has served time on drug charges, was present at the scene and the likely target, but the warrant specified only "a white male and Hydrocodone." Before she knew what was happening, police wearing masks and helmets and carrying automatic weapons had broken through the door. ...
Surging Further Into the Afghan Abyss

The political class has failed us. At every level, they have failed us. Republican and Democrat, they have failed us. Liberal, conservative and centrist, they have failed us. They have lived on lies, and lived by lies, for so long that they no longer know how to comprehend the truth, much less communicate it or – God forbid – act on it. And so they plow on deeper into the darkness, in zombified pursuit of pointless goals, heedless of the signposts warning of danger, like some demented wagon train dragging a load of dead mules toward the edge of a cliff. Political failure is nothing new, of course. Deliberate deceit – and egregious self-delusion – are nothing new. ...

A Tale of Two Disasters (in Black and White): New Orleans vs. Fargo
Post Date: 2009-03-31 15:42:31 by X-15

While watching the evening news the other night and seeing the heroic efforts of Fargo, ND citizens working together to halt the rising flood waters of the Red River and contain the damage to their community, the reaction on the part of this community seemed vastly divergent from the community reaction of New Orleans during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina — the broadcast images of the responses to the flooding disasters that hit opposite ends of the U.S. couldn’t be more different. Recent news accounts of Fargo, ND showed countless volunteers (men, women and children) filling sand bags, working together like the intricate parts of a Swiss clock, valiantly trying to contain the ...
Banks Walk Away On Foreclosures

Banks Walk Away On Foreclosures Homes, who wants 'em? No one it seems. Please consider Banks Starting to Walk Away on Foreclosures. Mercy James thought she had lost her rental property here to foreclosure. A date for a sheriff’s sale had been set, and notices about the foreclosure process were piling up in her mailbox. Ms. James had the tenants move out, and soon her white house at the corner of Thomas and Maple Streets fell into the hands of looters and vandals, and then, into disrepair. Dejected and broke, Ms. James said she salvaged but a lesson from her loss. So imagine her surprise when the City of South Bend contacted her recently, demanding that she resume maintenance ...

Living in the American Mafia State 12 comments by: Christopher Whalen March 30, 2009 | about stocks: C / JPM / KBE / RBNF / XLF Christopher Whalen Add to Your WatchlistAbout this author: In the late winter of 2008, a strong whiff of millenarianism had already crept into American public life. As voters flocked to the primaries in startling numbers, many Democrats became convinced that the Second Coming lay just around the corner. By contrast, sentiment among Republicans was more somber, if equally chiliastic: they quaked at prospects of a dire Last Judgment on the administration of President George W. Bush in the November presidential election. Partisans of both parties also harbored fears ...

When Is It Going To Be Enough, America? Lorie KramerMarch 15, 2009 Believe it or not, this started being about HR875 & S425, but in the writing of it, it's just so much more.This is about the amazing things happening in this nation, and the inconceivable tolerance the American public has of it all. Dear, dear, America, When is it going to be enough? Haven't you been disrespected, marginalized, misdirected, demeaned, disregarded, ignored, insulted, bullshitted, deliberately misinformed, uninformed, manipulated, controlled, cheated, lied to, poisoned, killed…and generally just plane old screwed for long enough? I'm really starting to wonder about you. Why isn't ...
Ron Paul: End the War on Drugs

End the War on Drugs We have recently heard many shocking stories of brutal killings and ruthless violence related to drug cartels warring with Mexican and US officials. It is approaching the fever pitch of a full blown crisis. Unfortunately, the administration is not likely to waste this opportunity to further expand government. Hopefully, we can take a deep breath and look at history for the optimal way to deal with this dangerous situation, which is not unprecedented.Alcohol prohibition in the 1920’s brought similar violence, gangs, lawlessness, corruption and brutality. The reason for the violence was not that making and selling alcohol was inherently ...
Fox News’s Mad, Apocalyptic, Tearful Rising Star

Mr. Beck, an early-evening host on the Fox News Channel, is suddenly one of the most powerful media voices for the nation’s conservative populist anger. Barely two months into his job at Fox, his program is a phenomenon: it typically draws about 2.3 million viewers, more than any other cable news host except Bill O’Reilly or Sean Hannity, despite being on at 5 p.m., a slow shift for cable news. With a mix of moral lessons, outrage and an apocalyptic view of the future, Mr. Beck, a longtime radio host who jumped to Fox from CNN’s Headline News channel this year, is capturing the feelings of an alienated class of Americans. In an interview, Mr. Beck, who recently rewatched ...
Cheney War Crimes: Just Look at the Statute
Post Date: 2009-03-30 06:25:15 by Ada

President Obama needs to tell Attorney General Eric Holder to indict Dick Cheney, right now, for war crimes. Just look at the statute, Title 18 of the U.S. Criminal Code, Section 2441. It says that someone is guilty of a war crime if he or she commits a “grave breach of common Article 3” of the Geneva Conventions. And then it defines what a grave breach would be. One such breach is torture, or the conspiracy to commit torture, which Cheney was clearly in on, as when he repeatedly defended waterboarding and talked about the need to go to the “dark side” Here’s the language from the statute: “The act of a person who commits, or conspires to commit, an act ...

Why Michelle Malkin Ought to Be Caged Like a Rabid Shih-Tzu (Rank Hypocrisy Edition): So let's just get this straight: back in 2006, Michelle Malkin, blogger, syndicated columnist, and an attention whore with appetites so huge that, if she were a sex-selling whore (and the Rude Pundit has no direct knowledge that she is not), she'd be in front of an audience of cheering old drunks, giving handjobs to hobos while getting fucked in the ass by the bartender's pit bull, which is pretty much what happens when you appear on Fox "news," posts to her blog the names, phone numbers, and email addresses of three UC Santa Cruz students who led a protest against military recruiters ...
TOM007 Just bot a new Monitor And Thought It Might Interest A Ferw Others

When I was posting from Melaque Mexico, I found a place that had a a MUCH better monitor than the usual low end stuff I was used to, basically it was a wide screen that I quickly saw the benefits of and well, I liked it alot. As it was in a ten peso a hour icafe I figured it could have cost too much, as the Mexicans have a stiff tariff on electronic imports so I sent myself an email with the model of the monitor so I could investigate when I got home. Home I got and investigate I did. Now I am looking at an Acer X193W 19" fast monitor,WIDE and really think its great. Sue was doing a spread sheet and the utility value was great. So I just got an email from the vendor, newegg telling ...

Cal Thomas: So-called science of climate change has many critics By Cal Thomas Published: Friday, Mar. 27, 2009 - 12:00 am | Page 17A The Environmental Protection Agency has submitted a "finding" to the White House Office of Management and Budget that will force the Obama administration to decide whether to limit greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act. If adopted, new laws and regulations will likely follow that have the potential to change our lifestyles and limit our freedoms. None of these laws and regulations will be preceded by debate; they will be imposed on us by fundamentalist politicians and scientists who have swallowed the Kool-Aid and declared global ...
Haaretz: Will U.S. Financial Woes Bring In A New World Order?

Is the U.S. about to lose its status as the dominant global superpower? Will the dollar collapse? If so, what would become the new global reserve currency and what would replace U.S. hegemony in a new world order? American troops are currently stationed in over 150 countries around the world and have been actively engaged in combat since the beginning of the war in Afghanistan in 2001. The pretext for the invasion of Afghanistan was provided by the 9/11 attacks. A second front in the U.S. “war on terror” was opened in 2003 with the invasion of Iraq. As well these military expenditures, the U.S. has an outstanding national debt of $10.8 trillion and rising. Although U.S. ...
Deepening tolerance makes British Obama ‘possible’ says Putnam (UK)

The UK has the necessary preconditions for the emergence of a black prime minister according to a joint study by Harvard University and The University of Manchester. The project, to be published in book later this year co-authored by writer Tom Clark, is led by Harvard’s Professor Robert Putnam, the author of the best-selling Bowling Alone which charted the collapse of community life in America. Professor Putnam is also Visiting Professor at The University of Manchester. It casts new light on controversial comments by head of equalities watchdog Trevor Phillips last November, who doubted that the political machinery of the UK would allow a British Obama to breakthrough. The ...
Mark Levin: Busted

Conservative talk show host and author Mark Levin’s new book, “Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto,” has just hit the bookstores and from what I’ve been hearing over the last few days it has been well received, to say the least. Mr. Levin’s fellow conservatives have done nothing but rave over this book, describing it in almost mystical terms with one reviewer describing Mr. Levin as the new Thomas Paine. Apparently, conservatives in Washington have forgotten who they are and what they stand for; so Mr. Levin has written a succinct yet defining instruction aid for not only our elected officials who claim to be conservative, but also for firing up the ...
