“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

Professor Ash, are you listening to Lord Monckton?
I bellied up and listened, for awhile. What a load of crap. He said absolutely nothing other than 'trust me, I know the science is shit'. That is it, that's all he said.... mind you he used a lot of words but that was all they meant.
In my Shorter Obama I left out the part about reserving the right to initiate more wars without permission from any of you slobs. Just War Theory, bitches.
Obama didn't REALLY go to Oslo to sell war, did he?
Why, yes. He did.
And you can only get away with that as a flaming liberal.
Don't worry, Rat. There'll be plenty of fascinating commentary on this one.
Not having heard the speech but only hearing the commentary on the radio and here so far didn't what he say line up nicely with your beliefs trish? You know, the war in Afghanistan is necessary and good and deserves to be prosecuted? America is a force for good ect?

I'd be happier if the way he went about presenting the Afghanistan strategy *to his own fellow citizens* had not been so pointedly, patently misleading.
An absence of evidence is not evidence of absence, Ash. You can check him out if you care. Do all your posts demonstrate the great depth of your wisdom?
While any attempt to increase the taxes on that $140 billion dollar Wall Street bonus pool is met with howls of derision and claims that the President of the United States is a Communist.
Doug, Whit and Bob pointed to that interview with The LORD as a good place to get the climate change skeptics take on things. I spent the time to check it out and discovered that he said NOTHING about their climate case. Now maybe he has some good arguments but he did not make a single one of them in that interview (well, maybe there was something near the end but I doubt it).
I agree with all your recent posts rat with the exception of the last. If the job situation isn't turned around in the next 6 months, the Dems will be in trouble.
Six months or ten, Quirk, if they get a trend line that can be spun to the positive, count on the media to make the Obamamerica case, even before the results are all in.
Six months puts US into May or June, still early for a November election.
"That is an indication, Quirk, of just how small those State deficits really are."
I have to amend my last post as I also disgree with this comment. The $140 billion states deficit involves "real" money.
I believe all but one or two states have constitutions demanding balanced budgets. Likewise, the states can't print money like DC. That means these billions in deficits equate to cuts in medicaid, cuts in school funding, lost jobs, etc.
The $140 billion may seem insignificant when compared to the trillions DC is pissing away but it directly affects millions of people.
A thief is a thief, a spy is a spy, despite their "good" intentions and motivations.
The Banks were thieves and had to make restitution, Mr Meli was a thief and should be held to the law, in that regard, in the country where he committed the crime.
Which is why, Quirk, the Federals will be stepping in, right on their cue.
The Federal Reserve starved the M1, growth of under 1% in the 18 months prior to the credit meltdown. That was no accident.
I think the "best and brightest" miscalculated the total effect or their machinations, but that those machinations are part of the general trend of centralization of authority, I have little doubt.
No State will default, just as New York City never did. The Federals will cover and then control.
The Swiss attempted to hide their war crimes and profit thereby by destroying evidence. Mr. Meili exposed the conspiracy by providing physical evidence of crime. The government of the United States did not consider his behavior criminal and, therefore, granted him political asylum.
The government of the United States could not "forgive" Mr. Meili for a crime committed within another sovereign jurisdiction.
What the US government did do was shield Mr. Meili from the force of a self-serving Swiss law that would have allowed war criminals to profit from genocide.
You blame the banks for the genocide? You believe they were complicit in that?
Or the actions of those private bankers, in Switzerland, by taking those deposits from those subsequently killed by others, constituted a war crime, in and of itself?
If not diligently searching for the rightful owners is a war crime, then the Isreali actions on the West Bank definitely qualify as war crimes, as well.
Which the Swiss do recognize, as such, and that the US has declared to be against the Law of Nations.
Q is quite correct. State revenues are a zero sum game. Federal deficits are far more squirrely. At a 4% yield a $140B federal deficit takes an annual revenue of $5.6B to service.
On the spending side the $140B spent will likely end up as $100B in taxable income to someone. At a 25% tax rate the federals have $25B in revenue for a $5.6B cost.
It might make a politician look good in that first year but the 5.6B is a 'gift' that keeps giving year after year(and getting larger - oh the glory of compound interest!)
There are 6,000,000 businesses in the US that employ workers. If the government had sent everyone of them a prepaid credit card of $100,000 to be used for their business, it would have spent $600B, less than TARP and, and would have created 3,000,000 jobs.
That is 3,000,000 off unemployment and paying taxes say $10,000 each or $30B. The cost of the $600B would be $24B per year or an annual profit to the treasury of $6 billion.
It might make a politician look good in that first year but the 5.6B is a 'gift' that keeps giving year after year(and getting larger - oh the glory of compound interest!)
Depends of how the money is used. A large portion could generate future taxable revenue.
But would the revenue ever catch up to the expenditure? It sounds like a cat chasing its tail. That certainly seems to be the philosophy animating the deficit spending, and the tax cuts (laffer curve) yet the total debt seems to just keep on climbing...
What is contradictory about human nature? Who is not in favor of something for nothing? The problem comes when the majority of the electorate is so infantile as to believe it possible.
This US Constitution, does it only protect you from the government?
I'm puzzled by the NY Post's publishing of Tiger Wood's text messages. If the gov. did it that would be unconstitutional but it is OK for the Post to do it?
WASHINGTON (AP) - Just over 31,000 homeowners have received permanent loan modifications under the Obama administration's mortgage relief plan, a big setback for the government's embattled effort to stem the foreclosure crisis. Lenders say they are having a hard time getting borrowers through the trial period, which can last up to five months. Many homeowners who were given verbal approval for the program have not returned the necessary documents.
Actually requiring Docs for money! Outrageous! Kid is finding that out about FHA loans. ...I wonder what the latest scams are around that common sense requirement?
Under our (US) form of government, all rights are held by the people, derived and inalienable from the Creator. The government exercises only those powers delegated to it by the people. In this, America is unique.
To ensure that the rights of the people were not infringed, the U.S. Constitution was created to specify and limit the powers of the Federal government. Consequently, only government can behave unconstitutionally. Private citizens may behave unlawfully.
Laura Ingraham interviewed Sara Palin and convinced her to give the red, rogue warrior jacket that she was wearing in the picture on her book "Going Rogue" up for an auction to help "The Wounded Warrior" project and "The Fisher House" charities.

ReplyDeleteThe Nobel Prize win, announced in October, is the result of a nomination, placed on February 1, two weeks after he was in office.
ReplyDeleteSince then Obama has chosen to double down on Afghanistan.
Obama himself said the Nobel decision was less a recognition of his accomplishments and more "a call to action," .
Can anyone point to something more absurd, but who are the real dummies, the Norwegians or the Americans who created the Obama presidency?
Why didn't they give him the Nobel prize fore economics as a "call to action" to create some American jobs? Oh that's right right he did.
We are going to set forth a surge of caulkers to save the republic.
