Quote of the Day
"The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, and intolerable"
-– H.L. Mencken

“The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.”
The NEXT thing we do, let’s kill all the patent trolls. The blood being sucked by these takers from the makers would fill the Great Basin. (Title quote from Act IV, Scene II, King Henry VI, William Shakespeare.)

Government Lied…But You Knew That
Unemployment figures misreported; media absent from story (as usual.) Guess what? Unemployment is actually at 10.1%. Don’t expect to see this story reported in traditional media. They continue to slurp the oily Kool Aid being poured by the professional liars … Continue reading

Is America on the Brink of a Second Revolution?
Well, that depends on what the meaning of the word “brink” is. I doubt I’ll live to see the civil disorder/chaos/open combat/military dictatorship phases. The revolution itself has already begun, of course, though it’s not widely recognized as such. We’re … Continue reading

Breaking things up…Noonan on “The Big Alienation”
“Washington is full of people who insist they’re in control and who go to great lengths to display their power. It’s that no one takes responsibility and authority. Washington daily delivers to the people two stark and utterly conflicting messages: … Continue reading
