Paul Ryan Targets IRS in Campaign TV Ad Tuesday, 07 Oct 2014 01:29 PM By Melanie Batley Former GOP vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan has released his first television ad in his race for re-election, heavily criticizing the Internal Revenue Service for incompetence and evasion. In the 30-second ad entitled "Audit," the Wisconsin congressman slams the agency for its loss of employee emails which Congress had requested in its investigation into the targeting scandal. "The IRS tells you to hang on to seven years of your personal tax information, but they can’t even keep six months of employee emails. It's time to clean house at the IRS," Ryan says in the ad. ...

Scottish Referendum Gives Reasons to be Hopeful

Even though it ultimately failed at the ballot box, the recent campaign for Scottish independence should cheer supporters of the numerous secession movements springing up around the globe. In the weeks leading up to the referendum, it appeared that the people of Scotland were poised to vote to secede from the United Kingdom. Defeating the referendum required British political elites to co-opt secession forces by promising greater self-rule for Scotland, as well as launching a massive campaign to convince the Scots that secession would plunge them into economic depression. The people of Scotland were even warned that secession would damage the international market for one of ...
Clapper Under the Bus

When President Obama attributed the rise in Iraq of the Islamic State, or ISIS, to the failures of the U.S. intelligence community earlier this week, naming and blaming directly National Intelligence Director Gen. James Clapper, he was attempting to deflect criticism of his own incompetence. He was discussing the fact that ISIS, right under his own and the general’s noses, gained control of nearly half of the landmass of Iraq. This is the same Iraq that the United States supposedly liberated from the clutches of a dictator, strengthened as a regional military power and fortified as the Middle East’s newest democracy as a result of our invasion in 2003 and our subsequent 10-year ...

Ron Paul: Secession Movement to Hit U.S. Tuesday, 30 Sep 2014 02:03 PM By Melanie Batley Scotland's secessionist movement should be inspiration to similar movements by states to secede from the United States, said former Texas GOP Rep. Ron Paul. The three-time presidential candidate and libertarian said that supporters of freedom and limited government should be in favor of secessionism, a "grand American tradition," which is in the spirit of the Declaration of Independence. "Even though it ultimately failed at the ballot box, the recent campaign for Scottish independence should cheer supporters of the numerous secession movements springing up around the globe," ...
Ron Paul Thinks There Should Be More Secessionist Movements in the U.S

The former U.S. congressman and perennial presidential candidate tells National Journal that he's "real pleased" with American secessionist groups. September 30, 2014 Secessionists across the world were inspired by Scotland's energetic attempt at independence from the United Kingdom earlier this month. Ron Paul, as it turns out, joined them. In an essay on his eponymous institution's website Sunday, the former U.S. congressman from Texas wrote that any supporters of freedom should cheer secessionism because it allows for smaller government—a constant mantra for the libertarian and perennial presidential candidate, who didn't previously realize there were ...

Imagine, as Christopher Buckley (son of William F.) did in his clever book, Boomsday, a plan to make the government solvent by offering incentives for people to kill themselves at age 70 and younger. Instead of calling it suicide, it would euphemistically be known as “Voluntary Transitioning.” Now we have Ezekiel Emanuel, Ari and Rahm’s brother, making quite a splash with his article “Why I Hope to Die at 75” in the Atlantic. While he doesn’t plan on suicide, he will stop receiving medical treatment. He says people deteriorate, and are less productive and creative. So why stay around so long? The former White House aid’s article makes Dr. Elizabeth Lee ...
High Cost of Bad Journalism on Ukraine

Exclusive: By driving a wedge between President Obama and President Putin over Ukraine, America’s neocons and the mainstream media can hope for more “shock and awe” in the Mideast, but the U.S. taxpayers are footing the bill, including $1 trillion more on nuclear weapons, writes Robert Parry. The costs of the mainstream U.S. media’s wildly anti-Moscow bias in the Ukraine crisis are adding up, as the Obama administration has decided to react to alleged “Russian aggression” by investing as much as $1 trillion in modernizing the U.S. nuclear weapons arsenal. On Monday, a typically slanted New York Times article justified these modernization plans by describing ...

Juan Williams: 'ISIS Effect' Will Give GOP an 'October Surprise' Monday, 22 Sep 2014 01:59 PM By Drew MacKenzie Fox News analyst Juan Williams has warned the GOP that there’s going to be some political bombshells going off in the weeks leading up to Election Day caused by “the ISIS effect.” In an opinion column for The Hill, Williams says that the Democrats are gaining steam ahead of the November elections as voters appear to be rallying around President Barack Obama due to his recent handling of the Islamic State (ISIS) terror threat. A Fox News poll last week showed that terrorism is now just as much a key issue to voters as the economy when it comes ...

(Photo by Olivier Douliery-Pool/Getty Images) By BOSTON, Sept 19 (Reuters) - The failed Scottish vote to pull out from the United Kingdom stirred secessionist hopes for some in the United States, where almost a quarter of people are open to their states leaving the union, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found. Some 23.9 percent of Americans polled from Aug. 23 through Sept. 16 said they strongly supported or tended to support the idea of their ...

There is no escaping it. If we can scrape away all the hypocrisy and cant about the man, there is only one candidate worthy of the next Nobel Prize. This is not being suggested because he has done something for a lasting world peace. Rather he has helped our nation avoid two stupid wars, one possibly nuclear. Viewing international relations from the perspective of an American may be a narrow way of looking at things, but at this point, who cares? We have had almost a decade and a half of failure on the world stage. Let’s be self-centered for once. Oddly enough, the man who is doing so much for us isn’t even American. Weirder still, he is looked upon as the nation’s enemy ...

Will the Swiss Vote to Get Their Gold Back? by Ron Paul On November 30th, voters in Switzerland will head to the polls to vote in a referendum on gold. On the ballot is a measure to prohibit the Swiss National Bank (SNB) from further gold sales, to repatriate Swiss-owned gold to Switzerland, and to mandate that gold make up at least 20 percent of the SNB's assets. Arising from popular sentiment similar to movements in the United States, Germany, and the Netherlands, this referendum is an attempt to bring more oversight and accountability to the SNB, Switzerland's central bank. The Swiss referendum is driven by an undercurrent of dissatisfaction with the conduct not only of ...

There are several aspects of this Ray Rice story that are worthy of comment; for example, the power of a video in the outrage toward Rice as opposed to the lack of power in the written word in the lack of outrage toward Floyd Mayweather, by all accounts an infinitely more troubling character than is Ray Rice. I want to consider another aspect: the victim’s role in deciding about prosecuting the perpetrator, and the possible mental incapacity of the victim in this regard. As he always does, Victor Ward raises valuable points through his unique lens on the world. He addresses this Ray Rice situation along with a handful of other recent, high-profile, racially-charged stories. I offer ...

How the War Party did an end run around the American people – and got its way in Syria In the run-up to World War II, Franklin Roosevelt played the role of the reluctant warmonger. Rather than initiating the action, he took care to be always responding to the war cries of his hopped up left-wing supporters – who were demanding US intervention on behalf of the beleaguered Soviet Union. The American people wanted to stay out of the European war, and the President had to ever-so-cautiously led them down the primrose path, deceiving them every step of the way while he and Winston Churchill plotted behind their backs to get us into the war. As the 1940 campaign came down to the ...

MOSCOW (AP) — Russia will counter military moves by the U.S. and NATO with an array of new nuclear and conventional weapons, President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday as the military successfully test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile from a nuclear submarine. At the same time, he emphasized that Russia will not enter a new arms race and will tightly control its military budget to avoid overburdening the economy. Putin accused the West of using the crisis in Ukraine to reinvigorate NATO, warning that Moscow will ponder a response to the alliance's decision to create a rapid-reaction "spearhead" force to protect Eastern Europe. The statement appeared to signal ...

Thanks to a say-anything media, hawkish politicians and an Orwellian administration, a war-weary public is terrified. Are there any red lines anymore – or just launch buttons? According to previews of Obama’s Wednesday speech, the very airstrikes the public has been scared into supporting will reportedly expand fast – not only in Iraq but into Syria. Photograph: Bixentro / Flickr via Creative Commons Did you know that the US government’s counterterrorism chief Matthew Olson said last week that there’s no “there’s no credible information” that the Islamic State (Isis) is planning an attack on America and that there’s “no indication at this ...

Cruz Bill: Become a Terrorist, Lose your Citizenship Saturday, 06 Sep 2014 12:35 PM Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz plans to introduce legislation next week aimed at stripping U.S. citizenship from anyone providing support to or fighting with terror organizations. His proposal comes after reports that at least 100 Americans have joined the ranks of the Islamic State (ISIS). "Americans who choose to go to Syria or Iraq to fight with vicious ISIS terrorists are party to a terrorist organization committing horrific acts of violence, including beheading innocent American journalists who they have captured," Cruz said in a statement, reports The Hill.

"He's run for president twice. I once noted that running for president was like having sex: No one did it once and forgot about it," Carville said Thursday on Fox News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor."

Rand Paul, are at odds over how to handle the crisis in the Middle East, according to BuzzFeed. On Friday, during a summit thrown by the conservative group Americans for Prosperity, the Republican senator ripped into President Barack Obama’s statement that he doesn’t "have a strategy" on stopping the Islamic State insurgency in Iraq and Syria. "If the president has no strategy, maybe it’s time for a new president," said Rand Paul, who later expanded on his comments in an email to the Associated ...

Can the Military Attack Civilians? During my talk radio career – one of many professional hats I’ve worn – there was a question that listeners asked with increasing frequency after the Department of Homeland Security was created and rumors of the construction of internment camps began to circulate. With the election of President Barack Obama, and his penchant for using executive orders to bypass Congress and the Constitution, the question cropped up even more frequently. The question boils down to this: “Can the United States military imprison or kill American citizens on American soil?” And before anyone scoffs at the notion of the military being turned on ...

Last week President Obama admitted that his administration has not worked out a strategy on how to deal with the emergence of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) as a dominant force in the Middle East. However, as ISIS continues its march through Syria and Iraq, many in the US administration believe it is, in the words of Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, a threat “beyond anything we have ever seen.” Predictably, the neocons attacked the president’s speech. They believe the solution to any problem is more bombs and troops on the ground, so they cannot understand the president’s hesitation. Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee Buck McKeon made it clear ...

Senator Howard Baker learned Agency Infiltrated and sabotaged the Watergate Break-in Roger Stone, former Advisor to Richard Nixon and New York Times bestselling author of The Man Who Killed Kennedy – now says the same forces who killed JFK tried twice to assassinate President Richard Nixon for the same reason, Vietnam and their bitter opposition to detente. A Washington Insider for forty years, Stone’s sweeping new book Nixon’s Secrets traced the ark of the career of the 37th President, Richard Milhous Nixon, the most brilliant, sad, bold, awkward, disciplined, insecure, proud and visionary man to ever serve as President. Stone claims the CIA tried to kill Nixon twice in ...

At long last, after all these years, we have a defining question to We The People on our rule of law from libertarian Jacob G. Hornberger, founder and president of The Future of Freedom Foundation: “Why Not Simply Abolish the CIA?” (fff.org, Aug. 1). He asks: “Did any CIA agent get indicted for torturing people? No. “Did any CIA agent get indicted for destroying the videotapes that showed the torture? No. “Did any CIA agent get indicted for murdering prisoners in Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq? No.” As I’ve often reported, the list of the agency’s wrongdoings is long, continuous and deeply documented in such books as “Legacy of Ashes: The History ...
