COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“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."

    Egypt's Military Government Quiets Revolutionaries

    by Lourdes Garcia-Navarro
    January 19, 2012

    It's been nearly a year since the uprising began in Egypt that toppled President Hosni Mubarak began. The revolutionaries that started it all are again finding themselves persecuted. The military council that runs Egypt is targeting them, using the court system and prison to shut them up. Unlike a year ago, the revolutionaries can no longer count on much popular support.

  4. If Romney ran the country like a private equity deal, he would leverage it with more debt, pay a special dividend to the banksters, lower their tax rates, then leave government bond holders and savers holding the bag when the US defaults eight years later in a bankruptcy déjà vu, ironically, JUST LIKE OBAMA.

    We are in for 4 years where lame duck Obama fearlessly shows his true socialist colors. Romney's background and bankster low tax rate makes him unelectable. Romney or Obama, America loses either way.

The Association of American Medical Colleges estimates that the USA will be 160,000 physicians short by 2025 (when all patients would be insured under ObamaCare), and this is without even considering those doctors who will limit their practice to insured patients because of decreasing reimbursements or who retire early when faced with increasing costs with little return.

  15. It was a disappointing weekend for middle-distance mushers, many of whom were planning on knocking out a 300-mile qualifier for the Iditarod/Yukon Quest at this year’s Copper Basin 300.

    The contest was expected to end sometime this morning at Red Eagle Lodge. Instead, mushers began to pile up after the Meier’s Lake checkpoint – less than a third of the way into the race.

    Aliy Zirkle, of Two Rivers, described the scene on her SP Kennel blog: “I really began to have my doubts about the trail when I came head on with three of the lead trail breaking snow machines headed the wrong direction - one was being towed.”

    What a weird twist of logic you come up with Herr Ishamel...

    But you may have stumbled on a point worth noting..

    Russia seems to always be supportive with your pals (the moslems) up to a point, building and supplying weapons and such repeatedly to arabs and persians, only to be destroyed and needed to be replaced.

    The moslems are too stupid to understand that the Russians are simply prepping for another arms contract once the arms the moslems have are destroyed....

    Nor even for Israel to fund our border patrol.

    The only call I hear, with regards Israel in the Americas, is for Israeli mercenaries to abandon training the drug cartel death squads. For Israel to end the harboring of criminals and deport Lt Col Klein, IDF(ret) to Colombia to serve his justly deserved sentence for support terrorism, there.

    The SAME issue applies to Israel.

    Most all of the land was purchased of the original state. Even lands like Har Homa, when clear title is shown over the green line, the arabs (your pals) refuse to see the validity of purchase.

    Moslems refuse to accept the idea that land can be purchased away from a holy islamic trust.

    That same insanity is now spreading to the insane hispanics that are now about to start their liberation against YOUR illegal occupation...

  78. As the economy tanked, some Fortune 500 firms raked in huge profits, all while benefiting from government tax breaks.

    The new Report is from the U.S. Public Interest Research Group and Citizens for Tax Justice. They highlight companies they call "especially aggressive at dodging taxes and lobbying Congress: the Dirty Thirty."

    One-third of them are energy companies. Together, between 2008 and 2010, they reported $164 billion in U.S. profits. Yet the report says most paid what amounts to a negative tax rate, meaning they got more in tax rebates than they paid in taxes. And they spent close to half a billion dollars lobbying Congress.

    Altogether they collected $10.6 billion in tax rebates from the federal government, while skirting a total of $67.9 billion in taxes.

    Ordinary American taxpayers and small businesses must pick up the tab when major corporations avoid their taxes. Spread out over every individual tax filer in America, the taxes avoided by the Dirty Thirty break down to an average of $481 per taxpayer.

    The elites think that Dr Paul's 20% will ride the GOP bus, without even getting lip service to the key planks of the Doctor's program.

    Indeed, gaming the play so that the antithesis of Dr Paul garners the nomination.

    Anyway, when the choice is Obama or Obama White, I mean Lite, there is another choice.

    Gary Johnson on the Issues

    Governor Johnson, who has been referred to as the ‘most fiscally conservative Governor’ in the country, was the Republican Governor of New Mexico from 1995-2003.

    A successful businessman before running for office in 1994, Gov. Johnson started a door-to-door handyman business to help pay his way through college. Twenty years later, he had grown the firm into one of the largest construction companies in New Mexico with over 1,000 employees. Not surprisingly, Governor Johnson brings a distinctly business-like mentality to governing, believing that decisions should be made based on cost-benefit analysis rather than strict ideology.

    Johnson is best known for his veto record, which includes over 750 vetoes during his time in office, more than all other governors combined and his use of the veto pen has since earned him the nickname “Governor Veto.” He cut taxes 14 times while never raising them when he left office, New Mexico was one of only four states in the country with a balanced budget.

    Term-limited, Johnson retired from public office in 2003. An avid skier, adventurer, and bicyclist, he has currently reached four of the highest peaks on all seven continents, including Mt. Everest.

    In 2009, after becoming increasingly concerned with the country’s out-of-control national debt and precarious financial situation, the Governor formed the OUR America Initiative, a 501c(4) non-profit that promotes fiscal responsibility, civil liberties, and rational public policy. He traveled to more than 30 states and spoke to over 150 conservative and libertarian groups during his time as Honorary Chairman.

  87. Exactly, Q.

    They still split the dozen or so delegates.

    But some how, it's a lock if someone "wins" 30% support from primary participants in South Carolina.

    Why even move on to Florida?
    Are the rest of the Primaries just a jobs program for State election appointees?

    A media mounting a march to a Republican coronation, not a electoral competition, like Obama and Clinton had, in '08.

    If a politico ties in Iowa, wins 40% of the vote in their Home State or a State in which they own a home, and eke out 30% or so in South Carolina....

    That's a mandate for the nomination?

    With the delegates allocated proportionately, for the first time?

  88. There is that TM, Q, but the NLP is not fielding a candidate.

    So, that leaves voting for the winner, the loser, or someone that agrees with you.

    Seems to me, that voting for a loser with whom you disagree, close to the apex of irresponsibility, in a representative Republic.
    Voting for the winner, with whom you disagree, even worse.

    Voting for someone that mirrors your own views, a victory for democracy.

    Red meat for the crapper department -

    Last week, the pro-Gingrich Winning Our Future PAC received $5 million from Las Vegas billionaire Sheldon Adelson. The group is expected to use the cash for new television advertisements in this month’s primary elections as the former House speaker tries to overtake front-runner Romney in the race for the GOP nomination.

    The group said Sunday it was planning to run a half-hour film assailing Romney’s tenure at the investment firm Bain Capital. Adelson is one of wealthiest people in America, and his huge contribution coincides with tough comments by Gingrich in support of Israel, a signature issue of Adelson’s. Gingrich in December said that Palestinians were an “invented” people, and he has warned about the consequences of Iran developing nuclear weapons, an important issue to Israel.

    This is not a comment about Israel/Iran, or Jews/Gentiles.

    Military given go-ahead to detain US terrorist suspects without trial


    And some people worry about 'natural born' citizenship when we have this going on. It's a pretty sad day when Rand Paul and Dianne Feinstein are the voices of reason in Congress.


    What Constitution?


    Toshtu was speaking of lawyers the other day. Lindsay Graham is a lawyer and a JAG reserve officer.


    Graham added that it was right that Americans should be subject to the detention law as well as foreigners. "It is not unfair to make an American citizen account for the fact that they decided to help Al Qaeda to kill us all hold them as long as it takes to find intelligence about what may be coming next," he said. "And when they say, 'I want my lawyer,' you tell them, 'Shut up. You don't get a lawyer.'"

    What old dick-Graham doesn't mention is that proof isn't required under the new law only supicion. And what does suspicion consist of...

    "There are laws on the books now that characterise who might be a terrorist: someone missing fingers on their hands is a suspect according to the department of justice. Someone who has guns, someone who has ammunition that is weatherproofed, someone who has more than seven days of food in their house can be considered a potential terrorist," Paul said. "If you are suspected because of these activities, do you want the government to have the ability to send you to Guantánamo Bay for indefinite detention?"

    Constitution: Section 9
    Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public safety may require it.


    I would suggest most people in the US have no idea what OZ is doing to their rights. Unfortunately, there are those who do know and don't care.

    And one wonders why Congress' approval rating is about 9%?

    "The paradigm of the war on terror has advanced so far in people's minds that this has to appear more normal than it actually is," Malinowski said. "It wasn't asked for by any of the agencies on the frontlines in the fight against terrorism in the United States. It breaks with over 200 years of tradition in America against using the military in domestic affairs."

    In fact, the heads of several security agencies, including the FBI, CIA, the director of national intelligence and the attorney general objected to the legislation. The Pentagon also said it was against the bill...

  115. Keystone XL would divert Canadian oil from refineries in the Midwest to the Gulf Coast where it can be refined and exported. Many of these refineries are in Foriegn Trade Zones where oil may be exported to international buyers without paying U.S. taxes. And that is exactly what Valero, one of the largest potential buyers of Keystone XL's oil, has told its investors it will do. The idea that Keystone XL will improve U.S. oil supply is a documented scam being played on the American people by Big Oil and its friends in Washington DC.

    The country's Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, also said during his annual televised press conference that Russia would use its veto at the UN Security Council to block any resolution calling for military force to be used against Syria.

    Mr Lavrov said that Russia is "seriously worried" that military action against Iran may be under consideration, and vowed that Moscow would do all it could to prevent it. "The consequences will be extremely grave," he said. "It's not going to be an easy walk. It will trigger a chain reaction and I don't know where it will stop."

    Last week, a Russian newspaper revealed that the annual training exercises undertaken in southern Russia by the country's army will focus this year on scenarios related to the regional fallout of a possible military conflict in Iran.

    MEChA is an Hispanic separatist organization that encourages anti-American activities and civil disobedience. The radical members of MEChA who refer to themselves as "Mechistas," romanticize Mexican claims to the "lost Territories" of the Southwestern United States -- a Chicano country called Aztlan. In its national constitution, MEChA calls for self-determination by its members to liberate Aztlan. MEChA's national constitution starts out: "Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for the self-determination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán."

My final conjecture on this issue: if Bain buys a lot of companies and subsequently blows them to pieces, the wreckage is actually only contained to three entities: the employees of those companies, Bain management, and Bain’s investment partners.

    However, if the federal government invests in businesses and blows their wad, not only do all the employees get canned, but the debris pile of wreckage includes all taxpayers. On top of that, the government doesn’t have to justify itself to immediately do it again and raise the next fund!

    TransCanada Corp. (TRP) may shorten the initial path for its rejected Keystone XL project, bringing oil from Montana’s Bakken Shale to refiners in the Gulf of Mexico and removing the need for federal approval.

    “There certainly is a potential opportunity to connect the Bakken to the Gulf Coast,” Alex Pourbaix, TransCanada’s president of energy and oil pipelines, said in a telephone interview today. “That is obviously something we’ll be looking into over the next few weeks.”

    TransCanada’s $7 billion Keystone XL proposal to bring crude from Canada’s oil sands to the Gulf was rejected yesterday by the Obama administration. The project required U.S. approval because it crossed the border with Canada. The company may seek that approval after it builds the segment from Montana to the Gulf, Pourbaix said.

    The Bakken shale-rock formation is estimated to hold as much as 4.3 billion barrels of technically recoverable oil in North Dakota and Montana, according to a 2008 U.S. Geological Survey report. Oil production in North Dakota surged 42 percent to 510,000 barrels a day in November, exceeding the output of Ecuador.

    Corn

    The United States, Brazil, Argentina and Ukraine account for more than 80 percent of global corn exports. While some 90 countries rank among the world's corn importers, Japan, Mexico, South Korea and Egypt are the most import-dependent nations, purchasing more than 40 percent of all globally traded corn.

    ...

    Soybeans

    The popularity of soybeans is growing. While less soy is produced than the other three food staples, soybean production has increased by nearly 150 percent in the past two decades, nearly twice the rate of corn production.

    Rice

    The two largest rice producers by far are India and China. The two countries collectively produce more than half of the world's rice.

    Wheat

    Wheat is widely produced by countries all over the world. However, more than 90 percent of the export market is dominated by ten entities: the United States, Australia, Russia, Canada, the European Union, Argentina, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Turkey and Uruguay.

  165. If Barack's publisher were to give him a call, telling him the US should start to disengage, we'd see some movement.

    For Sure.

    Not likely to happen though.
    Mr Crown has other priorities than to see the US disengage from the Middle East.

  166. Trash Lady, the Roman Church (yours), yours has said that Jews capture and kill Christian children for all sorts of rituals. Only a humane and sane Pope in the XX Century attempted to lay that lie to rest. Obviously, he was not altogether successful. So, in short, for 1700 years the Jews were infanticides cause the Big Church said so and that's the truth.

  173. Trash Lady, you cannot, dare not, answer the question because it undermines the rationality of Christianity (as if the Roman Church accepts you otherwise, e.g. homosexuality). But you know and I know that every single day the body and blood of the god Christ is either actually or ritually consumed across Christendom.

    Question time is now over. You get an F for intellectual dishonesty. Fortunately for you, you do not live in the 19th Century Philippines; otherwise, you would be getting a taste of the whip and a whiff of the flames. You are a fool.
