What Does Freedom Really Mean?
By Dr. Ron Paul


Fedruary 7, 2007

“…man is not free unless government is limited. There's a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.” Ronald Reagan

We’ve all heard the words democracy and freedom used countless times, especially in the context of our invasion of Iraq. They are used interchangeably in modern political discourse, yet their true meanings are very different.
George Orwell wrote about “meaningless words” that are endlessly repeated in the political arena*. Words like “freedom,” “democracy,” and “justice,” Orwell explained, have been abused so long that their original meanings have been eviscerated. In Orwell’s view, political words were “Often used in a consciously dishonest way.” Without precise meanings behind words, politicians and elites can obscure reality and condition people to reflexively associate certain words with positive or negative perceptions. In other words, unpleasant facts can be hidden behind purposely meaningless language. As a result, Americans have been conditioned to accept the word “democracy” as a synonym for freedom, and thus to believe that democracy is unquestionably good.
The problem is that democracy is not freedom. Democracy is simply majoritarianism, which is inherently incompatible with real freedom. Our founding fathers clearly understood this, as evidenced not only by our republican constitutional system, but also by their writings in the Federalist Papers and elsewhere. James Madison cautioned that under a democratic government, “There is nothing to check the inducement to sacrifice the weaker party or the obnoxious individual.” John Adams argued that democracies merely grant revocable rights to citizens depending on the whims of the masses, while a republic exists to secure and protect pre-existing rights. Yet how many Americans know that the word “democracy” is found neither in the Constitution nor the Declaration of Independence, our very founding documents?
A truly democratic election in Iraq, without U.S. interference and U.S. puppet candidates, almost certainly would result in the creation of a Shiite theocracy. Shiite majority rule in Iraq might well mean the complete political, economic, and social subjugation of the minority Kurd and Sunni Arab populations. Such an outcome would be democratic, but would it be free? Would the Kurds and Sunnis consider themselves free? The administration talks about democracy in Iraq, but is it prepared to accept a democratically-elected Iraqi government no matter what its attitude toward the U.S. occupation? Hardly. For all our talk about freedom and democracy, the truth is we have no idea whether Iraqis will be free in the future. They’re certainly not free while a foreign army occupies their country. The real test is not whether Iraq adopts a democratic, pro-western government, but rather whether ordinary Iraqis can lead their personal, religious, social, and business lives without interference from government.
Simply put, freedom is the absence of government coercion. Our Founding Fathers understood this, and created the least coercive government in the history of the world. The Constitution established a very limited, decentralized government to provide national defense and little else. States, not the federal government, were charged with protecting individuals against criminal force and fraud. For the first time, a government was created solely to protect the rights, liberties, and property of its citizens. Any government coercion beyond that necessary to secure those rights was forbidden, both through the Bill of Rights and the doctrine of strictly enumerated powers. This reflected the founders’ belief that democratic government could be as tyrannical as any King.
Few Americans understand that all government action is inherently coercive. If nothing else, government action requires taxes. If taxes were freely paid, they wouldn’t be called taxes, they’d be called donations. If we intend to use the word freedom in an honest way, we should have the simple integrity to give it real meaning: Freedom is living without government coercion. So when a politician talks about freedom for this group or that, ask yourself whether he is advocating more government action or less.
The political left equates freedom with liberation from material wants, always via a large and benevolent government that exists to create equality on earth. To modern liberals, men are free only when the laws of economics and scarcity are suspended, the landlord is rebuffed, the doctor presents no bill, and groceries are given away. But philosopher Ayn Rand (and many others before her) demolished this argument by explaining how such “freedom” for some is possible only when government takes freedoms away from others. In other words, government claims on the lives and property of those who are expected to provide housing, medical care, food, etc. for others are coercive-- and thus incompatible with freedom. “Liberalism,” which once stood for civil, political, and economic liberties, has become a synonym for omnipotent coercive government.
The political right equates freedom with national greatness brought about through military strength. Like the left, modern conservatives favor an all-powerful central state-- but for militarism, corporatism, and faith-based welfarism. Unlike the Taft-Goldwater conservatives of yesteryear, today’s Republicans are eager to expand government spending, increase the federal police apparatus, and intervene militarily around the world. The last tenuous links between conservatives and support for smaller government have been severed. “Conservatism,” which once meant respect for tradition and distrust of active government, has transformed into big-government utopian grandiosity.
Orwell certainly was right about the use of meaningless words in politics. If we hope to remain free, we must cut through the fog and attach concrete meanings to the words politicians use to deceive us. We must reassert that America is a republic, not a democracy, and remind ourselves that the Constitution places limits on government that no majority can overrule. We must resist any use of the word “freedom” to describe state action. We must reject the current meaningless designations of “liberals” and “conservatives,” in favor of an accurate term for both: statists.
Every politician on earth claims to support freedom. The problem is so few of them understand the simple meaning of the word.

THE DISILLUSIONARIES - 4 PUBLIC AWARENESS QUESTIONS

2001 NEWS Report about Skull and bones ritual

Here's an 2001 ABC piece about Skull and Bones where they got a video of the rituals that Skull and Bones does.
The reporter says the mock human sacrifice is "silly fraturnity nonsence" but if you watch the video, it's very disturbing and pretty fucking sick. So making yet again my point to the validity to Andrew Meyer's question to John Kerry if he was a member of Skull and Bones, right before the Gistapo tasered him and violated his rights guaranteed under our Constitution. Kerry did not answer that question but has openly admitted to being a member in the past on Meet The Press in 2004.

Give Up Rights For The "Common Good"?
(Taken from "Citizens Rule Book" a handbook with the Constitution, Jury Handbook, and the Bill of Rights)
Where the people fear the government you have tyranny; where the government fears the people, you have liberty.
Politicians, bureaucrats and especially judges would have you believe that too much freedom will result in chaos. Therefore, we should gladly give up some of our RIGHTS for the good of the community. In other words, people acting in the name of government, say we need more laws and more JURORS to enforce these laws- even if we have to give up some RIGHTS in the process. They believe the more laws we have, the more control, thus a better society. This theory may sound good on paper, and apparently many of our leaders think this way, as evidenced b y the thousands of new laws that are added to the books each year in this country. But, no matter how cleverly this Marxist argument is made, the hard fact is that whenever you give up a RIGHT you lose a "FREE CHOICE"!This adds another control. Control's real name is BONDAGE! The logical conclusion would be, if giving up some RIGHTS produces a better society, then by giving up all RIGHTS we could produce the perfect society. We could chain everybody to a tree, for lack of TRUST. This may prevent crime, but it would destroy PRIVACY, which is the heartbeat of FREEDOM! It would also destroy TRUST which is the foundation for DIGNITY. Rather than giving up RIGHTS, we should be giving up wrongs! The opposite of control is not chaos. More laws do not make less criminals! We must give up wrongs, not rights, for a better society! William Pitt of the British House of Commons one proclaimed,"Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human liberty; it is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves."

Nothing would be what it is,


Because everything would be what it isn't.


And contrary-wise - what it is, it wouldn't be.


And what it wouldn't be, it would.





You see? - Lewis Carroll








Never before has that line from Alice in Wonderland hit home so much for me, as to where i am right now.


I really do feel like Alice wandering around in Wonderland, just in total shock of all the craziness going on all around me!


I wasn't going to write about the Andrew Meyer story at all cuz personally i didn't think it was that big of a story to blog about when there are other bigger fish to fry, so to say, that happened last week.


Alan Greenspan, and Ben Bernanke coming out on t.v. all week basically saying the value of the dollar is being devalued, mainly by the Federal Reserve and that the dollar may be replaced by the Euro! That's a little freaky and bigger news than the Andrew Meyer tasering, but it's been brought to my attention, and now looking at some of the comments on YouTube, people are saying that poor guy deserved getting tasered!!!


That's just fucking crazy to me that people are saying such bullshit!!


No, I take that back, it doesn't seem crazy to me, it makes me wanna throw up and it really freaks me out the whole Orwellian applauding of this!


"Thought criminal, thought criminal, take him away to the Ministry of Truth!!!"


Seriously, it's fucking sick!


And the most amazing thing to me is, last week this wasn't the only police brutality incident in the country that was reported in the news.


There was the appalling story of the City Councilmen from Indiana who was throw out by the Mayor in a City Council meeting because god forbid he was trying to exercise his Constitutional right as a representative of the people to be able to speak for more than one minute about the corruption in the city's system. He calmly walked out, and the cops come up behind him and just beat the shit out of him!! Then the kicker is, of coarse the news went and reported it like the Councilmen deserved it and that he started a fight!!


Incredible distortion of the facts right there.


Then there was another story about a wheelchair-bound, schizophrenic woman who was tasered 10 times by police and killed!


What possible excuse could the police have for tasering a wheelchair bound, mentally disabled person??





Now Andrew Meyer, he just happen to be an Alex Jones listener, just like the couple from North Carolina who a cop beat up because they were flying an up side down flag in front of their home.
That story right there just illustrates how uninformed the public is, not to mention the cops.


Andrew Meyer did nothing more than ask the Senator two questions, very relevant questions in my opinion, and the second question i'd really like to hear a response to, but of coarse Kerry didn't answer that question.


Sure Andrew Meyer was a little pissed off when asking his questions, and very well could of asked the questions and made his statement in a more calmly manner, but seriously, if you're not pissed off at what is going on, you are not paying attention. Andrew Meyer asked a very relevant question that the main stream media has not asked him. And when Kerry did answer the question about the voter fraud in Ohio and him conceding the election, on the day after the election, he was caught in a lie that he had read the Greg Palast "Armed Madhouse" book, because if he had really read that book like he told Andrew Meyer he did, then he would of known there were TONS of evidence showing voter suppression and fraud, and that Kerry did in fact win the 2004 election.


Which completely ties into Andrews question about him and Bush being apart of the secret society Skull and Bones.


I mean doesn't it bother you to know that our elected officials all belong to these very secretive clubs? Skull and Bones has shit out many, many officials that have served in our government.


When Andrew Meyer asked his question, it was the Q&A part of the visit, Kerry had already talked for 2 hours. Kerry had called on Andrew Meyer for the sole purpose to ask him a question. I'd like to think we can ask our elected officials, who are supposed to be serving US, the people, i'd like to think we can ask them any god damn question we please. And at this point when the mainstream media isn't asking the questions we want answered, it's time we grow some balls and ask these questions of our elected officials ourselves, cuz the media sure as hell isn't going to bother.


So for exercising his first amendment right, Andrew Meyer was tasered 6 times.


It's time we wake up to the brutality the cops are showing us. The cops in NYC even are being paid more to be more "aggressive" to the citizens!! I mean what the FUCK???


I guess i'm just very appalled at the fact that people are applauding the death of America and the bill of rights. The fact that people are saying he deserved it cuz he was a little pissed off when asking the questions.


Well fuck, if we're all gonna be tasered for being mad at the government, i'd get tasered every fucking night for the way i yell and scream at the t.v. when i watch the nightly news.
As far as i'm concerned, we still have our first amendment right, and these "free speech zones" bullshit the government is pulling on us is totally unconstitutional! Yeah, i'm sure when the founding fathers were writing the first amendment they meant we could have free speech, but only in certain zones that the government chose. Bullshit!!! Your rights are being VIOLATED, if that means anything to the American people anymore.



Sick and sad, i'm just wandering around in Wonderland i guess.


What use to seem normal to me is now fucking crazy....

Driving on that long hard road to eternal glory


"Good Enough" By Evanescence

Under your spell again
I can't say no to you
crave my heart
and its bleeding in your hand
I can't say no to you
Shouldn't have let you torture me so sweetly
now I can't let go of this dream
I can't breathe but I feel
Good enough
I feel good enough for you
Drink up sweet decadence
I can't say no to you and
I've completely lost myself and
I don't mind
I can't say no to you
Shouldn't have let you conquer me completely
now I can't let go of this dream
can't believe that I feel Good enough
I feel good enough its been such a long time coming,
but I feel good and
I'm still waiting for the rain to fall
pour real life down on me cause
I can't hold on to anything this good enough
am I good enough for you to love me too?
so take care what you ask of me cause
I can't say no



In less than a week i turn 27. Wow, i never imagined were i'd be at 27, but it sort of a mile stone for me because i've changed so much over the years, and most of all my self confidence is soaring. I've always been that shy quiet girl confused on just about every aspect of her life.
Just in 4 years i've done a 360 from where i stood on almost everything. 4 years ago i was a rock solid liberal, Amy Goodman was like my hero. Now i'm a rock solid constitutionalist, and my hero isn't just one person but many ranging from of coarse Alex Jones, Jim Marrs, JFK, and certainly now Ron Paul. Ron Paul reminds me what it means to be free, and he empowers me to fight till the bitter end to save our constitution.
4 years ago if you would of told me i'd be donating and full on supporting a Republican for president i would of laughed in your face.
Just goes to show how much my eyes have opened and how opened my mind has become.

4 years ago i was obsessing with my looks, how people, especially my boyfriend and just men in general perceived my outer appearance. I wasted 3 years of my life just swallowed by this depression because i was losing what i identified myself with, which was my skinny body, a whole 116 pounds of me. I thought my waist line was what identified me. It's really sad when i look back on it, but all throughout my teenage years i thought if i kept my weight down i could do anything.
Which turned out not to be true. When i finally got an offer for a modeling job, i ditched the interview cuz i was so worried they'd say i was fat!
How fucking sad!!
Now i am without any doubt in my mind, am an aspiring chef. I've discovered my real love in life and a passion that just consumes me everyday. I'm being swept off my feet by something i denied myself to enjoy because i never wanted to gain weight.
Ya know and now, i don't really care what people think of my appearance. What really warms my heart to no end is on the Tool message boards, just recently actually, i was in an argument with this one guy about the History Channels program "9/11 Conspiracies: Fact or Fiction". If you haven't seen it, it's a total government propaganda, step in line with the official story and they don't even let Alex Jones and people like him even talk! Anyhow, i was in an argument with this guy and on one of the comments i had posted someone replied with,"God that is so hot, i wish i could meet more girls like you."
THAT fucking tickled me pink!!! Someone actually thinks i'm hot, not because of my looks but really and truly because of my mind. That is wonderful and really what life should all be about, we need to stop judging each other by our outside packages.
Like David Icke says we're all one infinite consciousness.
that's real beauty and life right there, infinite consciousness.....

I'm a 27 year old woman who has a soft spot for drinking Guiness and staying up all night listening to my favorite music. My heart belongs and probably will forever be intertwined with Fiona Apple, David Gray, Tool, Regina Spektor, Evanescence, and Pink Floyd.
My heart strings get pulled when i hear music that really speaks to me, more and more i can't stand uninspired music. The song above and this one i think really speaks to were i am in my life right now. It's all very unchartered road where i feel i am now.
It feels good though... real good :) I'm finally happy...


"Clean Pair Of Eyes" By David Gray

Hear me God Im on the level
Mapping silence seeing things
Crying laughing like the devil
And before the might
Of all thats seen
Ill raise my head
And wake to dream
With a clean pair of eyes
Murdered gold and colours flashing
Time like blood like flowing hair
Faces merging airplanes crashing
And before the might
Of all thats true
Ill raise my head
And dream anew
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Dont need no one to blame
Dont need no disguise
No sugar to sweet my brain
A clean pair of eyes
Today I need no commentary
Today I do not need to speak
No explanation necessary
And before the might
Of all thats seen
Ill raise my head
And dream again
With a clean pair of eyes
A clean pair of eyes
Dont need no right or wrong
Dont need no disguise
No sugar to fix my tongue
A clean pair of eyes
Liquid air and flags that ripple
A tambourine of smoke suns
Love that blinds up fear that cripples
And before the might
Of all thats seen
Ill raise my head
And wake to dream
And before the might
Of all thats true
Ill raise my head
And dream anew
And before the might
Of all unnamed
Ill raise my head
And dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream again
Dream again


Happy 27th birthday to me, you did it, keep aiming for your goals, at this point i don't think anything can stop me :)

Got my Neil Young tickets, FUCK YEAH!!




"Old Man"

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.
Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

9/11 - the big cover-up?

Even the chair of the 9/11 Commission now admits that the official evidence they were given was 'far from the truth'.
Peter Tatchell
London Guardian


September 12, 2007 10:30 AM

Six years after 9/11, the American public have still not been provided with a full and truthful account of the single greatest terror attack in US history.
What they got was a turkey. The 9/11 Commission was hamstrung by official obstruction. It never managed to ascertain the whole truth of what happened on September 11 2001.
The chair and vice chair of the 9/11 Commission, respectively Thomas Kean and Lee Hamilton, assert in their book, Without Precedent, that they were "set up to fail" and were starved of funds to do a proper investigation. They also confirm that they were denied access to the truth and misled by senior officials in the Pentagon and the federal aviation authority;and that this obstruction and deception led them to contemplate slapping officials with criminal charges.
Despite the many public statements by 9/11 commissioners and staff members acknowledging they were repeatedly lied to, not a single person has ever been charged, tried, or even reprimanded, for lying to the 9/11 Commission.
From the outset, the commission seemed to be hobbled. It did not start work until over a year after the attacks. Even then, its terms of reference were suspiciously narrow, its powers of investigation curiously limited and its time-frame for producing a report unhelpfully short - barely a year to sift through millions of pages of evidence and to interview hundreds of key witnesses.
The final report did not examine key evidence, and neglected serious anomalies in the various accounts of what happened. The commissioners admit their report was incomplete and flawed, and that many questions about the terror attacks remain unanswered. Nevertheless, the 9/11 Commission was swiftly closed down on August 21 2004.
I do not believe in conspiracy theories. I prefer rigorous, evidence-based analysis that sifts through the known facts and utilises expert opinion to draw conclusions that stand up to critical scrutiny. In other words, I believe in everything the 9/11 Commission was not.
The failings of the official investigation have fuelled too many half-baked conspiracy theories. Some of the 9/11 "truth" groups promote speculative hypotheses, ignore innocent explanations, cite non-expert sources and jump to conclusions that are not proven by the known facts. They convert mere coincidence and circumstantial evidence into cast-iron proof. This is no way to debunk the obfuscations and evasions of the 9/11 report.
But even amid the hype, some of these 9/11 groups raise valid and important questions that were never even considered, let alone answered, by the official investigation. The American public has not been told the complete truth about the events of that fateful autumn morning six years ago.
What happened on 9/11 is fundamentally important in its own right. But equally important is the way the 9/11 cover-up signifies an absence of democratic, transparent and accountable government. Establishing the truth is, in part, about restoring honesty, trust and confidence in American politics.
There are dozens of 9/11 "truth" websites and campaign groups. I cannot vouch for the veracity or credibility of any of them. But what I can say is that as well as making plenty of seemingly outrageous claims; a few of them raise legitimate questions that demand answers.
Four of these well known "tell the truth" 9/11 websites are:
1) Scholars for 9/11 Truth, which includes academics and intellectuals from many disciplines.
2) 250+ 9/11 'Smoking Guns' a website that cites over 250 pieces of evidence that allegedly contradict, or were omitted from, the 9/11 Commission report.
3) The 911 Truth Campaign that, as well as offering its own evidence and theories, includes links to more than 20 similar websites.
4) Patriots Question 9/11, perhaps the most plausible array of distinguished US citizens who question the official account of 9/11, including General Wesley Clark, former Nato commander in Europe, and seven members and staffers of the official 9/11 Commission, including the chair and vice chair. In all, this website documents the doubts of 110+ senior military, intelligence service, law enforcement and government officials; 200+ engineers and architects; 50+ pilots and aviation professionals; 150+ professors; 90+ entertainment and media people; and 190+ 9/11 survivors and family members. Although this is an impressive roll call, it doesn't necessarily mean that these expert professionals are right. Nevertheless, their scepticism of the official version of events is reason to pause and reflect.
More and more US citizens are critical of the official account. The respected Zogby polling organisation last week found that 51% of Americans want Congress to probe President Bush and Vice-President Cheney regarding the truth about the 9/11 attacks; 67% are also critical of the 9/11 Commission for not investigating the bizarre, unexplained collapse of the 47-storey World Trade Centre building 7 (WTC7). This building was not hit by any planes. Unlike WTC3, which was badly damaged by falling debris from the Twin Towers but which remained standing, WTC7 suffered minor damage but suddenly collapsed in a neat pile, as happens in a controlled demolition.
In a 2006 interview with anchorman Evan Soloman of CBC's Sunday programme, the vice chair of the 9/11 Commission, Lee Hamilton, was reminded that the commission report failed to even mention the collapse of WTC7 or the suspicious hurried removal of the building debris from the site - before there could be a proper forensic investigation of what was a crime scene. Hamilton could only offer the lame excuse that the commissioners did not have "unlimited time" and could not be expected to answer "every question" the public asks.
There are many, many more strange unexplained facts concerning the events of 9/11. You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to be puzzled and want an explanation, or to be sceptical concerning the official version of events.
Six years on from those terrible events, the survivors, and the friends and families of those who died, deserve to know the truth. Is honesty and transparency concerning 9/11 too much to ask of the president and Congress?
What is needed is a new and truly independent commission of inquiry to sort coincidence and conjecture from fact, and to provide answers to the unsolved anomalies in the evidence available concerning the attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. Unlike the often-stymied first investigation, this new commission should be granted wide-ranging subpoena powers and unfettered access to government files and officials. George Bush should be called to testify, without his minders at hand to brief and prompt him. America - and the world - has a right to know the truth.

Fox GOP Debate, Shameful Tactics and the Smearing of Ron Paul

Never before in my life have i watched a presidential debate and was just left with nothing but disgust and anger over what i had just heard and witnessed. Last nights debate, Fox did everything they possibly could to smear and lie about Ron Paul. Despite the fact that a good majority of the audience broke out in huge applause for the Congressman, Fox deliberately boosted the audio microphones for Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney, making sure that their sneers and giggling every time Ron Paul was asked a question was heared by everyone.

When we were watching it last night we thought it was someone in the audience laughing every time a question was posed to Ron Paul, but with my reading into some of the reviews of the debate, it was clear that Fox boosted the mics for Giuliani and Romney, so if you watch the debate the laughter you hear through the whole thing is from those two fuckers.

Ron Paul's first question revolved around a purposeful misquote of his position of allowing airline pilots to be armed. And from then on the public smearing of Ron Paul took place for another 90 minutes.

"The second question though revealed the unbelievable bias of Fox News," writes Anthony Wade. "In response to a question about Iraq and troops, Paul reiterated that we needed to pull the troops home, period. He has consistently said that we need to address the entire foreign policy and start protecting our own borders and our own country. In response to the false notion that there would be a “bloodbath” if we just pulled out, Paul quickly reminded everyone that the same people speculating that there would be a bloodbath are the same people who said Iraq would be a “cakewalk” and a “slam dunk.” He then correctly pointed out the faulty logic that says we need to stay for stability when it is widely reported that our presence on the Arabian Peninsula is what prompted the attacks of 911. The response from Chris Wallace was to pose his own follow up question which was, “So you are saying you would take your marching orders from al Qaeda?”
"Are you kidding me? The inherent bias in the question was disgusting during a debate forum and Chris Wallace revealed himself as nothing but a whore for the machine and not a credible newsperson. Thankfully, Dr. Paul was up to the task by responding that he would take his marching orders from the Constitution."

The last question was a "hypothetical" about Iran using nukes and threatening Israel. Ron Paul was asked first to set the stage for the rest of the panel to attack him on his answer.

Then after the debate the smearing just continued with Sean Hannity continually attacking the Congressman every chance he got. He even went as far as to say "Paulites" were cheating in the text voting of who won the debate because Ron Paul was winning by 33% with Giuliani a far second with 15%, even though you could not vote twice, clearing trying to dismiss Ron Paul's popularity.

Just the whole display last night was sickening to watch, but I have to give it to Ron Paul, he held his ground and didn't let it get to him. Fox is the most evil news organization in the whole fucking world! And remember to all you Hillary supporters out there, Rubert Murdock who runs Fox is one of the biggest financial supporters to the Hillary campaign.

Ron Paul, Republican Debate: Iranian Threat

Ron Paul: Marching to the Constitution

Ron Paul - Supporter Forced To Remove Campaign Sign

August 22, 2007

Not all the media are biased. A local newspaper in New Hampshire reported on an
annual GOP bbq in the town of Hollis. It could be called "the Ron Paul show,"
they said, since the far bigger crowd that usual consisted mostly of our
supporters. One volunteer even rented an airplane and flew a wonderful sign
around the sky. What great, creative, self-starting people I'm meeting, at
every stop, all of them united by a love of America and American freedom.

Politics is usually about division. But this campaign is just the opposite.
Not only are our volunteers a bunch of happy warriors, but they also practice
the virtues of tolerance and peace, just as they want the nation to do.

The other day, the state chairman of an opposing campaign (not in New
Hampshire!), angrily tore a sign out of one of our supporter's hands and trashed
it. Different people with different beliefs might have responded differently.
But our people, though they'd been standing in the rain all day, applied the
Golden Rule. It's because of quiet heroes that I know we can change this
country.

A reporter in New Hampshire told me this story about Florida: she had seen the
same three supporters working every day passing out our literature, and so
decided to interview them. She was startled to discover that one was a
Republican, one was a Democrat, and one was an Independent. But I wasn't.

Freedom brings us all together. We can all agree on leaving people alone to plan
and live their own lives, rather than trying to force them to obey at the point
of a gun, as runaway government does. Instead of clawing at each other via the
warfare-welfare state, people under liberty can cooperate in a unity of
diversity.

There is no need to use government to threaten others who have different
standards, or to be threatened by them. Looking to our Founders, our
traditions, and the Constitution, we can build, in peaceful cooperation, a free
and prosperous society.

At a talk show in Nashua, New Hampshire, the host asked me about the fair tax.
Well, I agree on getting rid of the IRS, I told her, but I want to replace it
with nothing, not another tax. But let's not forget the inflation tax, I said.

This was something she had never considered, but after I talked about the
depreciation of our dollar by the Federal Reserve, its creation of artificial
booms and busts, and its bailouts of the big banks and Wall Street firms, to the
detriment of the average person, she loved it. That is another tax, she agreed,
a hidden and particularly vicious tax.

They try to tell us that the money issue is boring or irrelevant. In fact, it
is the very pith of our social lives, and morally, Constitutionally, and
economically, the central bank is a disaster. Thanks to the work of this
movement, Americans are starting to understand what has been hidden from them
for so long: that we have a right to sound and honest money, not to a dollar
debauched for the special interests.

Unconstitutional government has created a war crisis, a financial crisis, a
dollar crisis, and a freedom crisis. But we don't have to take it. We don't
have to passively accept more dead soldiers, a lower standard of living, rising
prices, a national ID, eavesdropping on our emails and phone calls, and all the
rest.

We can return to first principles, and build the brightest, most brilliant
future any people on earth has ever aspired to. Help me teach this lesson.
Help me campaign all over this country, in cooperation with our huge and growing
volunteer army. Help me show that change is not only possible, but also
essential. Please, make your most generous contribution

presidency worthy of our people. Invest in freedom: for yourself, for your
family, for your future.

Sincerely,

Ron

War Games



Multiple War Games Were Being Conducted on 9/11/01



Several different war game exercises were in play on the day of the attack. The limited public information on these exercises shows that they simulated the following events:
Hijackings
Attacks on buildings using aircraft as missiles
Attacks using toxic or infectious substances





These events are all elements of the actual attack, which involved four alleged hijackings, three jetliner crashes into buildings, and the toxic calamity at Ground Zero in the wake of the World Trade Center's destruction.



Operation Northern Vigilance
Conducted from September 9-11, this exercise redeployed jets that normally patrolled the northeast sector to northern Canada and Alaska. It echoed a Russian exercise scheduled from September 10-14 in which long-range bombers were dispatched to their northern territory.



The Vigilant Warrior and Vigilant Guardian Training Exercises
These were apparently a pair of war games (attacker versus defender) which involved live-fly simulations of hijackings. Both this pair of exercises and Northern Vigilance probably involved the use of "injects" into screens to simulate aircraft. These games apparently resembled the actual attack sufficiently to confuse military officers, as suggested by the following transcript.
FAA Boston Center contacts NEADS, saying, "We need someone to scramble some F-16s or something up there, help us out." “Is this real world or an exercise?” asked the military liaison officer? "No, this is not an exercise," responded the FAA official. "Not a test."



The only known source for the exercise named Vigilant Warrior is Richard Clarke's book, Against All Enemies. It is possible that the exercise referred to by Clarke was actually Amalgam Warrior, a NORAD field training exercise involving life-fly air interception, held twice yearly, in the spring on the East Coast and the fall on the East Coast.



The Global Guardian Exercise
On the morning of the attack, a large-scale military training exercise called Global Guardian was "in full swing." Global Guardian is an annual exercise involving Stratcom (the US Strategic Command), the US Space Command, and NORAD.



There is evidence that the date of the 2001 Global Guardian exercise was changed to correspond with the the terrorist attack. NBC News military analyst William Arkin, in his book Code Names, gives the date of the exercise as October 22-31, 2001. Also, a military newspaper, the Space Observer, reported in an article dated 3/23/01 that the exercise was scheduled for October of that year.
Stratcon directed the exercise, which included all the US strategic forces, from Offutt Air Force Base.



The National Reconnaissance Office Plane Crash Drill
The National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) "provides our nation its eyes and ears in space." It operates a system of reconnaissance satellites to provide real-time monitoring of objects in the skies. On 9/11/01 the NRO headquarters in Chantilly, VA, were evacuated as part of a "plane into building" drill. The scenario involved a small corporate jet crashing into one of the campus' four towers.



The Timely Alert II Terrorism Drill
On the morning of the attack, personnel at the Fort Monmouth Army base in New Jersey were preparing to hold a drill, for the days of September 11 and 12, to test preparedness to respond to a chemical attack. The exercise was to involve law enforcement and emergency responders including the New Jersey State Police and Fort Monmouth Fire Department. Just before the exercise was to commence, reports of the attack in New York City surfaced and "real world events overtook the exercise," in the words of Army spokesman Timothy L. Rider.


The Tripod II Biowarfare Exercise
FEMA had deployed to New York City on September 10 to set up a command post at Pier 29, supposedly in preparation for a biowarfare exercise scheduled for September 12.

Ron Paul Speech at Iowa Straw Poll (Part 2 of 2)

Ron Paul May be Only Hope of Avoiding Draft


Special contributor Jennifer Reynolds suggests that 2008 US Presidential candidate Ron Paul may be the only hope of avoiding a draft. The subject of a draft came into play this week.
A top U.S. military officer in charge of co-ordinating the U.S. war effort in Iraq said yesterday that it makes sense to consider a return of the draft to meet the U.S. military's needs.
Lieutenant-General Douglas Lute, said the all-volunteer military is serving "exceedingly well" and the administration has not decided a draft is needed.
But in an interview with National Public Radio, he said, "I think it makes sense to certainly consider it, and I can tell you, this has always been an option on the table."
Does that sound scary? Do you think it is an over reaction? General Lute, the new War Czar, announced today, August 10, 2007:"Frequent tours for U.S. forces in Iraq and Afghanistan have stressed the all-volunteer force and made it worth considering a return to a military draft, President Bush's new war adviser said Friday."I think it makes sense to certainly consider it," Army Lt. Gen. Douglas Lute said in an interview with National Public Radio's "All Things Considered." Ron Paul warned us all of this possibility back in November but it never made the headlines. In fact, I am sure most of you never even knew he said it. Once again, Ron Paul has proved to be the most prescient candidate running for President. More importantly, he wants to protect your children and if you are under thirty: he wants to protect your LIFE. Here is what Dr. Paul wrote on November 27, 2006:"Once again the possibility of reinstating a military draft is being discussed in Washington, and while the idea seems remote it is not unthinkable.
Democratic Congressman Charles Rangel of New York, soon to be a powerful committee chair, has openly called for reinstating the Selective Service System. Retired Army General Barry McCaffrey claims that our ground forces in both Afghanistan and Iraq are stretched far too thin, and desperately need reinforcements. Meanwhile, other political and military leaders suggest that several hundred thousand additional troops might be needed simply to restore some semblance of order in Iraq. We are nearing the point where a choice will have to be made: either decrease our troop commitments in Iraq and Afghanistan significantly, or produce thousands of new military recruits quickly. So a discussion of military conscription is not purely academic.
Yet the Department of Defense remains steadfastly opposed to a draft. A Pentagon report stated that draft registration could be eliminated "with no effect on military mobilization and no measurable effect on military recruitment." Most military experts believe a draft would actually impair military readiness, despite the increase in raw manpower, because of training and morale problems.
So why is the idea of a draft even considered? One answer is that our military forces are spread far too thin, engaged in conflicts around the globe that are none of our business. With hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in literally hundreds of foreign nations, we simply don't have enough soldiers to invade and occupy every country labeled a threat or deemed ripe for regime change. Given the choice, many in Congress would rather draft more young bodies than rethink our role as world policeman and bring some of our troops home.
Military needs aside, some politicians simply love the thought of mandatory service to the federal government. The political right favors sending young people to fight in aggressive wars like Iraq. The political left longs to send young people into harm's way to save the world in places like Darfur. But both sides share the same belief that citizens should serve the needs of the state-- a belief our founders clearly rejected in the Declaration of Independence.To many politicians, the American government is America. This is why, on a crude level, the draft appeals to patriotic fervor. Compulsory national service, whether in the form of military conscription or make-work programs like AmeriCorps, still sells on Capitol Hill. Conscription is wrongly associated with patriotism, when really it represents collectivism and involuntary servitude.I believe wholeheartedly that an all-volunteer military is not only sufficient for national defense, but also preferable. It is time to abolish the Selective Service System and resign military conscription to the dustbin of American history. Five hundred million dollars have been wasted on Selective Service since 1979, money that could have been returned to taxpayers or spent to improve the lives of our nation's veterans.Ronald Reagan said it best: "The most fundamental objection to draft registration is moral." The notion of involuntary servitude, in whatever form, is simply incompatible with a free society."To the students reading this out there: If you are old enough to vote, vote for Ron Paul. To the parents of children under 30, beat your kids to the polls!!! To the rest of the country: WAKE UP!!!!!! Politics may be boring but it is VITAL that you know what is going on. I just barely caught this message from Douglas Lute on a ten second mention on a major news network. Your very lives are now at stake. This is no longer a time in history that you can stay asleep and let others dictate who will be your choice for President. You must pay attention now. Learn about Ron Paul. He has been warning all of you about this for almost a year. Ron Paul is and has always been AGAINST THE DRAFT. Please go to that link. Read the articles. Ron Paul will protect your children and if you are of draft age, he will protect you too. It is just too bad that 16 year olds cannot vote, because this is the most important Presidential election in their lives as well. Keep in mind, women serve in the military too. It is very possible a draft would include women as well as men. Or should I say girls as well as boys. At 18, you should be worrying about what to wear to the prom, not whether you will be taken against your will and put in a country where people are shooting at you. Ok, so the draft is bad, but why should I support Ron Paul? Because he has written article upon article against the draft and wrote that we need to abolish the Selective Service Service. You can trust that people will behave in the future the way they have behaved in the past. On a positive note, Ron Paul strongly exceeded expectations this weekend in the non-binding Iowa Straw Poll. Mitt Romney was the expected winner due to the fact that he literally bussed Iowans to Ames from all over the state and paid the purchase price for every single supporter. Tickets cost $35 each. Romney had also spent nearly a month canvassing the state and so it was no surprise that he won. But Ron Paul proved to his critics that he could turn Internet support into real votes. The mainstream media had him polling around one or two percent, so imagine everyone's surprise when Ron Paul tripled that figure and took 9% of the votes. Dr. Paul had only been campaigning in Iowa for the past week due to his heavy schedule in Congress. In a surprising twist of events, Ron Paul supporters proved to be a little prescient too. The day before the Straw Poll they sought an injunction to stop the event over the use of Diebold Election Systems machines that the group claimed to have fundamental weaknesses and insisted that paper backup ballots be used as well. The injunction was not granted, but it is a good thing they had the back-up ballots because a few of the machines did fail and the paper ballots had to counted by hand delaying the results for hours. It proves, it is always prudent to stay vigilant over the democratic process.Back to the real issue at hand. It is great that Ron Paul did so well in the Straw Poll, but our very lives are on the line. This weekend I could find five newscasters who talked about a story about a baby pig who fell out of truck onto the highway, but the fact that the draft is being reconsidered deserved only a ten second mention. Has the world gone insane? Now, more than ever, Ron Paul's supporters are needed not just to get their man elected, but to protect us all from conscription. The good news is they just may be able to do it. I checked a month or two ago and Ron Paul had around 16,000 members in Meetup.com a site that gets people together of like interests to promote or discuss a cause. As of right now he has 32,632 members in 698 groups. I am sure that number will change by the time you click on it. If we continue this war we will need more troops and they will need to be drafted. Ron Paul is the only Republican who has promised to end this war now. And unlike many leading Democrats, Ron Paul will end it now and not leave a soldier behind.

Aaron Russo talks with Ron Paul - Vote in 08!

Here's Aaron Russo's interview with Ron Paul in his movie "America: Freedom to Fascism"

WARNING! JUSTIN DON'T READ THIS ENTRY, I'M BLOGGING ABOUT THE FINALE OF THE SOPRANOS SEASON 4!!!

So yesterday i rented the last disc for season 4 of the Sopranos. I've been watching it on A&E ever sence they started playing it from season one. Then Tony killed off Ralphy and i couldn't wait another week to see what happened next so i went to Hollywood Video to rent the next disc.

Jesus, the finale for season 4 was THE SHIT!!! Not sence Melrose Place when Heather punched Taylor, the woman her husband was sleeping with, have i so gotten into a t.v. show!!

The actress that plays Carmella did a brillant job! Brillant i say! Actually the last two or three episodes my heart just fucking broke for Carmella!! The scean with her and Tony just pulled on my emotions! Everything i ever wanted to say to a man that has cheated on me was protrayed in the finale of season 4. Edie Falco is a great actress :-)

Ron Paul in the Iowa Republican Debate on ABC

Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it. -John Adams

Hey, High and Hello again! Yeah i'm connected to the internet again! Geez, without the internet i'm disconnected from the rest of the world it seems like. How fucking scary is that eh?

Well, not all that much has been going on. Working like fucking mad.

My boss was on vacation for two weeks, so i was working full time :-( Yuck! Fuck working full time! Especially at a job i'm increasingly getting sick of.

So my boss came back this week, and i was SO happy to see her! It was nice not having to deal with her drama all the time though, the woman can not function right unless she has some sort of crisis going on in her life. She wasn't back to work nearly 5 hours before she found SOMETHING to get all pissed about.

Anyway, i've been kind of depressed lately about the whole career thing. I feel like i'm stuck in my job, and i really do not like it anymore. The thing about that is, what if i decide to do all this shit and spend on this money on culinary school and then a few years later i change my mind and decide i don't like working in a kitchen?

2 or 3 years ago i fucking loved my job and fought and put up will all kinds of shit to get to where i am now, and now i'm only a year and a half into the job and i'm already sick of it.

Maybe it's because i've found something i actually love doing and going into work now is really hard.

I dunno, all i know is i feel stuck and it fucking sucks!

not only that but i think i'm starting to have second thoughts on becoming a chef as well! And for stupid, retarded reasons but i can't help that i'm feeling this way.

I really want to learn to cook awesome food and to be respected as a chef, but on the other hand i've gained massive weight sense i've discovered how much i like food.

It sucks, i love food now and you can tell when you look at me!

Shopping for clothes now has never been more depressing. And i know i shouldn't bring myself down about retarded shit like this but it's hard. I look at old pictures of me and i look nothing like i use to. At least in my eyes i think i don't look anything alike.

And if i wanna be a chef i'm gonna have to taste food that really isn't figure friendly. And that's just it right there i have yet to try different foods from different countries.

Like on the Travel Channel they have a show on there that i've been getting into with Chef Anthony Bourdain "No Reservations" where he travels all around the world just to try different foods. No he doesn't eat like bugs or cows balls or anything like that.

But it made me realize how much i have to see and to taste in this vast world we live in.

And i want to start off in Italy :-)

And especially in Italy not all of their foods are what you'd call light.

Those Italians love their pork man!

Not only do i have that dilemma but my family (well let me take that back, my kids) don't appreciate anything i give them to eat. Like last night for example.

I made my first ever spaghetti and meatballs, i made the meatballs myself and what do my kids do? Bitch about it right away, saying it's yucky! Yeah, i know kids like to eat nothing but sugary crap but it does bother me and it does make me feel bad. Unless i bake a cake or cookies or something it seems like they absolutely hate my cooking. My mom has told me Clarissa says she likes my cooking but she doesn't like it when i put onions in stuff. Which i put onions in pretty much EVERYTHING i cook! And i can see where she's coming from cuz i use to hate onions myself until ironically i was pregnant with Clarissa. Go figure huh?

But every time i cook something and make them eat it, Clarissa either gets up and trys to throw it away or Adara starts crying cuz she doesn't want it eat it. I know they're kids and i just shouldn't let it get to me, but these are the people i cook for the most besides myself and they absolutely hate my cooking! I can't help but let it bother me.

Justin sometimes make comments about what he likes but other times he doesn't say anything.

It's kind of hard cuz at times i wish i was in Top Chef scenario where i was cooking for a panel of judges so they could give me some feed back on what i'm doing right and what i'm doing wrong.

It's kind of frustrating but on the other hand my boyfriend and my kids aren't experts and i shouldn't really be looking to them for advice i guess.

I need to go to school, that's the answer i guess.

Ok, i've babbled for too long, i gotta get a hold of my brother soon. Tonight we're going to a concert at Red Rocks, it sounds like it's gonna be pretty boring but i told him i'd go with him cuz he had no one else to go with. He kind of suckered me into it and told me it was a coffee festival, and come to find out last night when i finally had access to the internet that the whole concert is a Starbucks concert. I would exactly call that a "Coffee Festival" that was a little misleading :-(

Guess i'll be listening to hillbilly rock and sucking down triple grande crapola.

See ya....

RON PAUL - AMERICA'S HERO

This video pretty much sums up Ron Paul :-)

"Pasteurized process cheese, for example, is made from one or more cheeses, such as cheddar or colby, and may have cream or anhydrous milkfat added. The cheese is blended and heated with an emulsifier—typically a sodium or potassium phosphate, tartrate, or citrate—and other optional ingredients such as water, salt, artificial color, and spices or other flavorings.

Pasteurized process cheese food is a variation of process cheese that may have dry milk, whey solids, or anhydrous milkfat added, which reduces the amount of cheese in the finished product. It must contain at least 51% of the cheese ingredient by weight, have a moisture content less than 44%, and have at least 23% milkfat."

So cheese food is something edible, and contains at least half of what it purports to be." - http://www.foodmuseum.com




Here i am at 3 in the morning on my night off, and i can't sleep! I hate nights like this.
Too many thoughts floating around in my head right now i guess.
The next 2 weeks i'll be working a lot more than usual, my boss is officially on vacation for 2 weeks after today.
I'm kind of looking forward to it actually, i work a lot better and i get into it a lot more when she's not around and doesn't come up to me 3 or 4 times during the night to bitch about something or someone.

I've really been getting into my cooking lately. The last three or four days i've cooked my ass off.
Some good things and some definite disappointments. I tried Giada De Larentiis's "Zeppole", it's Italian street food, a pastry deep fried in olive oil and rolled in vanilla cinnamon sugar.
Sounds good huh? Well, i dunno if i just didn't scoop out the dough small enough or if i didn't fry em long enough, but they came out to taste like an eclair kinda without the chocolate. Clarissa said she liked em but i didn't , i didn't like the weird creaminess in the middle, i expected it to be more of like a Mexican Sopapia.
My second miss was my spaghetti from dinner tonight. I've been kind of letting my mind flow on certain foods i feel comfortable with and creating my own dishes finally and so far i still need a lot of practice and a lot more different flavor combinations i need to taste.
Tonight i did a spicy sausage tomato sauce with spaghetti and chunks of fresh mozzarella, with freshly grated Parmigano Reggiano. The sausage i used didn't flow very well with the pasta i think. The sausage brought a weird smokey flavor to the traditional Italian flavors i had used in the tomato sauce.
I haven't gone too off into the far unknown space of my imagination when it comes to cooking just yet. I've played with Philly Cheese steak, different breakfast dishes and some pasta ones.
But i'm not totally confident with my cooking skills at this point in time.
It's on the house wife level, sad but true.
For one i'm struggling with such easy foods to cook that i cook all the time! The other night i finally got it to the point where it wasn't completely fucked up. Steak and french fries.
It's been so hard to cook a steak medium well! Seriously, now i know why chefs don't like cooking em like that cuz it sucks! I always try to cook them medium well cuz that's how Justin likes em. It's either overdone or too pink. I'm becoming a medium person now, i use to like steaks well done, but then i slowly started to like em medium well. Now that's just too brown for me.
I probably should use a thermometer but i wanna learn how to tell if it's done without having to use one.
And the french fries, i have such a patience problem when i fry them, or i'm putting in too many at a time and they're not browning properly.

And finally nacho cheese! Before i got into cooking i use to make nachos at home by buying a can of that Mission Nacho Cheese "Sauce" but they discontinued it a while back and i've been trying to think up ways in my mind to reproduce that cheese at home.
So i bought a block of Velveeta Cheese and at first microwaved it. Big fucking mistake. That disgusting cheese just turned into like a paste after it chilled for a little while.
So then i melted it over the stove with some cream. Fantastic! Got the nacho cheese consistency i was looking for but... the nasty taste of the Velveeta Cheese ruined the entire nacho experiance!
I haven't eaten that cheese in so long, i'm just becoming to realize just how disgusting and nasty it is! When i was a kid i use to love Velveeta Cheese!
For one, it doesn't even taste like cheese! Jesus it has this thick disgusting taste that just lingers in your mouth.
Anyway, so next time i'm gonna do the same thing over the stove with the cream but use real fucking cheese this time. maybe use a fontina cheese, and some others they use in fondue.
Ugh, fuck Velveeta!
Ok, it's almost 4 i better get to bed or i'll be sleeping all morning.
See ya..

Well The Forth and July came and went this year. Millions of Americans outside, grilling burgers, having beers and enjoying the pretty lights in the sky.
This year i took a different approach to the holiday than i ever have in years past.
I've really been reading a lot and watching shows on the American Revolution (well, when cable actually shows anything like that.)
This year the History Channel and the Military Channel had a day long marathon on The American Revolution. That was nice of them wasn't it?

But reading and watching all of this shit has really made me very sad at the state of our nation right now. I mean i was sad and pissed about it to begin with, but i look back at what the founding fathers fought for and how we live under a dictatorship now.
I mean Dick Cheney has pretty much come out and said he can do whatever he wants, and the law does not apply to him. That by definition is a dictatorship.
Ya know and never mind the Presidential Directive that Bush signed real quietly a few months back that gave him dictatorial powers, and not one peep in the press whatsoever, except for those few patriots left in the American Press who still pay attention.

Anyhow, for my own personal celebration of this years 4th of July, i went back and read quotes from some of our Founding Fathers during the Revolutionary War and decided to post them up here on my blog. Take the time to read them and remember the real reason why we celebrate the 4th of July, and how we got to that point of freeing an entire nation.
I have to be honest, reading some of these quotes did nothing more than make me cry, it's so obvious we are living under tyranny now.




How strangely will the Tools of a Tyrant pervert the plain Meaning of Words! - Samuel Adams

It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds. - Samuel Adams

Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are inevitably ruined. -Patrick Henry

It behooves you, therefore, to think and act for yourself and your people. The great principles of right and wrong are legible to every reader; to pursue them requires not the aid of many counselors. The whole art of government consists in the art of being honest. Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail. - Thomas Jefferson

The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere. - Thomas Jefferson

On every unauthoritative exercise of power by the legislature must the people rise in rebellion or their silence be construed into a surrender of that power to them? If so, how many rebellions should we have had already? - Thomas Jefferson

Without Freedom of Thought there can be no such Thing as Wisdom; and no such Thing as Public Liberty, without Freedom of Speech. - Benjamin Franklin

Our country is in danger, but not to be despaired of. Our enemies are numerous and powerful; but we have many friends, determining to be free, and heaven and earth will aid the resolution. On you depend the fortunes of America. You are to decide the important question, on which rest the happiness and liberty of millions yet unborn. Act worthy of yourselves. - Joesph Warren

These are the times that try men's' souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; bur that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny.....is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. -Thomas Paine

If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace. -Thomas Paine

Freedom had been hunted round the globe; reason was considered as rebellion; and the slavery of fear had made men afraid to think. But such is the irresistible nature of truth, that all it asks, and all it wants, is the liberty of appearing. -Thomas Paine

Revolution was effected before the war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people . . . . This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people was the real American Revolution. -John Adams

I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. -
John Adams

Let justice be done though the heavens should fall. -John Adams

Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it. -John Adams

"I don't want to be hostile. I don't want to be dismal. But I don't want to rot in an apathetic existence either. See I want to believe you, and I want to trust and I want to have faith to put away the dagger. But you lie, cheat, and steal. And yet I tolerate you." - Tool





I'm about to have a fucking meltdown. My level of tolerance is starting to drift away... far away. My anger and level of disgust for the general American population for our tolerance of fascism sweeping our nation has reached it's breaking point.
I mean i seriously think i need to go to therapy to deal with all this pent up anger i have towards everyone! I've discovered i CAN NOT have a rational conversation with anyone! Maybe on the Tool message boards i can find like minded people there who agree with the way i look at the world, but there's still those people out there who are just content to live under the new America where the Bill of Rights is no longer.
But even on the tool message boards i get those idiots still wrapped up in there left/right paradigm and it just makes me wanna puke!!
Like when I found out Ron Paul was being banned for the Iowa Republican debate (they're calling it a "forum" but it's still a debate, they're distorting words again) i put up a call to action thread to call Iowans for Tax Relief and Iowa Christian Alliance, the two groups banning Ron Paul. I got Ron Paul supporters but then i got stupid Amy Goodman spawn replying,"Ron Paul doesn't believe in a womans right to choose, so i can't vote for him" or i'd get shit like,"He wants to get rid of too much of the Federal Government, and for me a left leaning voter, i can't vote for him."

JESUS CHRIST!! The country is fucking gone and Ron Paul is the only one who can beat Hillary Clinton and these fucking idiots are worried about bullshit!! No Ron Paul is not against a womans right to choose he has said he himself is against abortion but he thinks it should be left up to states not the federal government.
And he fucking read the constitution and understood what the founding fathers meant by smaller limited government, that's why he wants to cut so many federal programs that are just a humongous bureaucracy to begin with. THAT'S WHY HE'S A CONSTITUTIONALIST YOU MORONS!!!
I mean jesus, you really wanna keep around the Department of Education, the mother of the No Child Left Behind Act? Gee, that program was a giant fucking success.
And repealing the 16th amendment! Just for that alone and closing the Federal Reserve would solve a WHOLE lot of our problems in this country. And you'd know that if you fucking went and looked up the facts about the income tax fraud. The money you pay for the income tax does not go back to the country it goes to the Private bank the Federal Reserve to pay back the debt, because the Federal Reserve is printing money out of thin air, it's value is not backed up by silver or gold like it used to be.
Our money is of no more value than Monopoly money!! Do you fucking realize that???
Back when i was still calling myself a liberal, i knew shit was bad but until i had my paradigm shifted and my eyes opened i never really realized the bigger picture and just how fucked up things are! And i can't even go into all of it on this blog, i'd be blogging for days!

What Ron Paul would do for this country if he was just given the chance has actually given this pessimist HOPE for once in her life!! It's up there with what would of JFK done if he had never been killed, i mean it's THAT significant to get Ron Paul the Republican nomination.
I'm sure as hell not voting for Hillary or Obama. And who ever gets the nomination for the Democrats, i don't care who it is cuz they're all fucking worthless scum who won't change a fucking thing but shred the Constitution even further, and most likely drop a bomb on Iran!!!
Whoever gets it I'll be downtown protesting when they come to Denver for their convention of morons.

Oh man..... deeps breaths. See what i mean when i say i think i'm having a meltdown and i need to go into therapy?
Shit is really fucked up and i seem to be the only one in the state of Colorado who can see it! AHHHH!!!
I mean i'm to the point where i want to take gun shooting lessons because the ship is fucking sinking and i'm not going to go jump on a life boat. I'm going down with the ship and i'm going down shooting, just like the patriots in the revolutionary war. My mom has even said we need a new revolution!
Shit, if my own mother is even calling for Revolution you know shit if fucked!
Seriously i am so pent up with anger and rage over almost everything now! The media, the government, the cover-ups, the lies. The endless, endless LIES!!!!

I was watching on the History Channel "The JFK Assassination: Beyond Conspiracy" and while i sat through that 2 hour piece of shit "documentary" which is a huge lie in itself because it was a total white wash! They left out SO MANY key things about Oswald, Jack Ruby and towards the end it was just one giant hit piece against "JFK" the Oliver Stone movie.
At one point they were interviewing a member of the House Select Committee on Assassinations, and he made a statement,"no one has made a statement to this day about any evidence of it being anyone else other than Lee Harvey Oswald."
I wanted to throw shit at the T.V. so FUCKING BAD!!!
With the E. Howard Hunt tape just recently been released to public, and the information he has given before he died, totally rips apart that entire documentary and it should NOT be playing on the History Channel because it's just spreading disinformation and distorting reality.
I seriously was MAD!! I've even written to the History Channel about it and bitched at them for playing that government fabricated lie on national television.
AHHHHH!!!!!

Ron Paul asked about 911, Phoenix, AZ 6/16/07

What the FUCK?!?! What the FUCK?!?!?!
My zen was short lived, and the anger has returned....

Ron Paul Excluded in Iowa

Iowans for Tax Relief and Iowa Christian Alliance will host a presidential candidates forum on Saturday, June 30th in Des Moines. Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney, Sam Brownback, Jim Gilmore, Mike Huckabee, Tommy Thompson, and Tom Tancredo will participate.

Ron Paul, however, will not participate. Why? Because he wasn’t invited.

We heard about this forum from numerous supporters in Iowa who asked why Dr. Paul was not going to participate. Those supporters assumed that Dr. Paul was invited.

The campaign office had not received an invitation so we called this morning; thinking we might have misplaced the invitation or simply overlooked it. Lew Moore, our campaign manager, called Mr. Edward Failor, an officer of Iowans for Tax Relief, to ask about it. To our shock, Mr. Failor told us Dr. Paul was not invited; he was not going to be invited; and he would not be allowed to participate. And when asked why, Mr. Failor refused to explain. The call ended.

Lew then called Mr. Steve Scheffler, president of the Iowa Christian Alliance, to talk with him. Mr. Scheffler did not answer so Lew left a message. He has yet to respond.

Why are the Iowans for Tax Relief and the Iowa Christian Alliance excluding the one Republican candidate who scored at the top of every online poll taken after the MSNBC, Fox News, and CNN debates? Why are they denying Iowans the opportunity to hear from the Republican presidential candidate whose popularity is growing by the day?

We couldn’t get answers to these questions from Messrs. Failor and Scheffler. Maybe you’ll have better luck. Their contact information is below.

It's ironic that on the same day we learned the Iowans for Tax Relief and the Iowa Christian Alliance excluded Dr. Paul from their candidates forum, we received a call from ABC News confirming Dr. Paul’s participation in its nationally broadcast August 5th debate to be held in Des Moines.

"It is dissent from government policies that defines the true patriot and champion of liberty"- Ron Paul


Ok, i'll stop being such a baby. About my last post.... It's just fucking FRUSTRATING!!! It just seems to me like the entire country now is fucking pissed off at the government and NOTHING is happening!!!! For those of you who still think we live under our rights that are guaranteed under the constitution... look how nothing is happening!! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE???????

Ok, just had to get that out.

Ron Paul equals revolution, and that's exactly what we need. We need to learn from those who fought in the Revolutionary War. We all need to retake High School American History and LEARN. We need to all look back on the rise of Hitler and the Nazi's and all be deeply disturbed how history is repeating itself, and we just sit back and watch Paris Hilton being escorted to jail, while a Waco/Ruby Ridge style siege is being formed right now in New Hampshire because this couple found out the income tax was a fraud and that they didn't want to pay the illegitimate income tax that funds the private bank, The Federal Reserve.
AHHHHHHH!!!!
Ok, ill stop.

Based on Ron Paul's recent surge in popularity, statistical analyst claims that Ron Paul is the underdog candidate of the 2008 election.

The Smart Money is on Ron Paul for President in 2008

Article written by

Many of you have never heard of Ron Paul but don't worry ... you will. Ron Paul is a 2008 Republican candidate running to become president. Some pollsters do not even include him in their polls. And those that do, show him non-existent to 3% maximum. The first caucuses and primaries are 7 months away, so how can Paul go from unknown to presidential candidate?

The first thing to realize is that Ron Paul is not an unknown. Unknown candidates usually have trouble winning election because of the lack of familiarity that voters have with them. If the voter does not know a candidate, how can they vote on you. But things have changed with the Internet. He is one of the most famous politicians on the Internet right now.

Once the election season gets closer and more people start flocking to the Internet for information, voters will start to learn about Ron Paul. This will provide a natural boost for Paul that other candidates will not have. In fact, if you avoided watching the mainstream media and the polls, you would feel that Ron Paul was by far the front runner.

The other important thing to note is that Ron Paul is the only Republican candidate to oppose the war. This is critical because it means that the anti-war Republican vote will almost exclusively be on his side. And the pro-war vote would be split among all the other candidates, and there are 9 of them! It would be as if the two greatest basketball players were put on the same team, their individual scoring averages would drop considerably to the point that the third best player would end up outscoring them by nature of the fact that he is the only option of another less successful team.

We are not trying to say Ron Paul is the third best or anything but just trying to show clear distinctions between Ron Paul and the rest of the field that should benefit him. If you imagine a horrible scenario in which 5,000 soldiers were to die in the two months before any of the primaries and caucuses, I think we can all agree that both the Republicans and Democrats would be voting to end this war. Ron Paul represents the Republicans only hope to win the Presidency in that situation.

70% of the American people are against the War. Only 29% of people approve of George Bush as a President and this all would bode well for Ron Paul in the general election. War hawk candidates like John McCain and Rudy Giuliani will have very little chance to win.

With sports prediction, we always make an effort to make plays based on value. It is easy for someone to predict the favorite to win i.e. Giuliani and Clinton but the art of smart handicapping is to make picks on the individuals with the most value. Because if you consistently make plays this way, you will win in the long run. Ron Paul is exactly that, a very smart value play.

Many offshore books are offering wagers on the presidential race. It is illegal to do so in Las Vegas. And the odds on him winning the general election and being sworn in as our next president can be as high as 100:1.
