March 30, 2009 – My friend, the internationally famed climatologist, Dr. S. Fred Singer, calls them “the CO2 wars.” It is the last ditch attempt by the Greens, under the aegis of the Obama administration, to declare carbon dioxide a pollutant and thus open the door to its regulation.
Singer says such regulation “would be the equivalent of an atomic bomb directed at the U.S. economy—all without any scientific justification.”
March 30, 2009 – Who stuck a knife through the “heart” of the U. S. Grand Jury?
For hundreds of years the Grand Jury was one major impediment to rising government power. Some forms of the grand jury date back to the Magna Carta of 1215 and evolved even further under Common Law. In America, it was and still should be, a constitutionally protected impediment to increasing government power, embedded in the 5th Amendment by the beginning words: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury.”
March 27, 2009 – I continue to be amazed at the ignorance of the people who “voted” for AKA, the Usurper, Pharaoh, the Deliverer (Moses, he’s not), the Messiah (no, not HIM either), the Kenyan – or what ever the hell you wish to call him.
Now we have 1388 staring us smack in the face with the mandatory/voluntary Youth Corps – all with nice, pretty little uniforms (presumably ‘Brown Shirts’), et al – and himz wife be showin’ de masses how dis heah volunteerism thing s’pose to work. DAMN! She sho nuff be havin’ a fine time. Fine time!
March 25, 2009 – Jeremy huddled in a corner of the old log cabin, out of the wind, even though it blew through the cracks in the walls and whistled and moaned from time to time. The sky was dark grey and menacing. The coming twilight filled him with dread. There would be no artificial light for the approaching darkness and he tried not to think of the long night ahead.
His current dwelling was once a small log cabin complete with solar panels, but the ravages of time, the sun, the wind and the rain had taken their toll on the aging building and it was but a few years from total collapse. The cabin creaked under the strain of the wind.
March 24, 2009 – Pop singer John Cougar Mellancamp once sang, “You’ve got to stand for something, or you’re gonna fall for anything.” I guess that must be true, else how else can one account for the fact that someone actually believes the following statement taken from a Pro Obama image I found on the internet?
“I would rather have a President who wraps himself in the Constitution and allows the burning of the Flag than one who wraps himself in the Flag and allows the burning of the Constitution.”
We, as a nation, have done just a bang up job of educating our children in regards to our nations history, its culture, and the principles upon which our government was founded.
March 24, 2009 – The release on March 18, 2009, of preliminary childbirth data from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) for 2007 has yielded mixed news – some good but most providing troubling insight into potentially crippling problems for American society and the American economy. These data suggest that 2007 was a very bad year, indeed. While most media focused on the teen pregnancy data, they missed the bigger picture. Here is the bigger picture.
March 24, 2009 – Though the dust has settled in Gaza, the rubble from the untold number of demolished buildings, homes and mosques is far from being cleared away. Graves continue to receive victims, young and old alike, from Israel’s most recent offensive. And in the midst of this, with the hopes of some respite and recovery on the horizon, rumors of a third Intifada swell among politicians, scholars and everyday people alike.
While the first and second Palestinian uprisings were spontaneous and natural responses to institutionalized injustice, and while they fostered a great sense of community and brotherhood among Palestinians everywhere, the many years of uprisings mark some of the most painful years in Palestinian history.
March 24, 2009 – We have oft heard, “from the mouth of babes…” - in this case, “from the winds of the past.”
Six years ago, Bob Landis penned this presentation, which asked the question, “How does a volatile commodity square with a sober emphasis on capital preservation?” This at a time, when gold was trading for about $340.00 per ounce. Where will it be six years from today???
March 24, 2009 – Once again, in our endeavor to make you THINK for yourself -The Federal Observerbrings you a complete US Government document. This was first published by the Government Accountability Office, and ostensibly deals with the issue of National Planning and Preparedness Efforts.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same." ~ Ronald Reagan
