Married Troops Can Live Together in Iraq

BAGHDAD (AP) — When American soldiers get off duty in Iraq, the men usually return to their quarters, the women to theirs. But Staff Sgt. Marvin Frazier gets to go back to a small trailer with two pushed-together single beds that he shares with his wife.

Obama’s Mentor Discovered….

  Old-school politician mentored Obama

By CHRISTOPHER WILLS, Associated Press WriterMon Mar 31, 3:57 AM ET

The president of the Illinois Senate is sitting in his statehouse office, talking in gravelly tones about political strategies and counter-strategies. Out of nowhere, the theme from “The Godfather” begins playing.

It turns out to be the ringtone on his cell phone — an appropriate song for the man who amounts to Barack Obama’s political godfather.

Emil Jones Jr. helped Obama master the intricacies of the Legislature. When Democrats took control of the state Senate, Jones, though he risked offending colleagues who had toiled futilely on key issues under Republican rule, tapped Obama to take the lead on high-profile legislative initiatives that he now boasts about in his presidential campaign.

The Essence of Liberty: Part 271 (1) The Supreme Court and “privacy”

The Essence of Liberty: Part 271 (1)  Compiled by  Dr. Jimmy T. (Gunny) LaBaume  A Summary of Gutzman, Kevin R.C. The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Constitution  (The book is available from the Ludwig von Mises Institute at http://www.mises.org)  Chapter 12: The Court’s Brave New World: From Affirmative Action to Sodomy  The Supreme Court and “privacy” The so-called right to privacy can not be found anywhere in the constitution. It was simply invented and developed by the Supreme Court along with other “rights” such as the “right” to contraception, abortion, homosexual sodomy and even a right not to have a state constitutional provision that bans officials from conferring special privileges upon homosexuals. In Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) a physician had been convicted of violating the state’s ban on prescribing contraceptives. He appealed claiming that the law violated the 14 th Amendment’s Due Process Clause—although it (the law) had nothing to do with protecting the rights of freed slaves. Only the magic of the Supreme Court could render such logic even remotely tenable.

The two-year presidential campaign has crashed and burned.

The Democrats

In this corner, ladies and gentlemen — the party that is stuck with two badly flawed candidates. Take your pick.

There is Barack Obama, whose pastor and mentor or “uncle” spews forth hatred for America, a monumental albatross given that voters in American elections are — well, Americans (other than those illegals who get away with putting their thumbs on the ballot box scale).

Then there is Hillary Clinton who lies — ooops! — “misspeaks” about being under sniper fire. (I jumped off the top of the Empire State Building without a parachute and landed gracefully on my feet.

The tarnished image of the Marine Corps continues to darken as more trials, more aquittals and more scandals corrode the brightly burnished steel that armors America’s premier fighting force.

Defense attorneys and beleaguered Marines say their cherished Corps’ surprise decision Friday to dismiss criminal charges against a Marine infantryman accused of mass murder at Haditha, Iraq, is just another billboard announcing the troubles plaguing Marine Corps morale today. Loyalty up and down the ranks, the bedrock on which the 232-year old fighting force was built, is under attack.

“First the Corps takes their innocence, and then the enemy tries to take their life, and then when they finally come home the government tries to take their freedom,” said James Culp, a military defense lawyer in Austin, Texas, who worked on the Haditha case for more than a year. “When does it ever end?”

Defense Department Told: Restore Military Readiness

Jim Kouri, CPP

 

U.S. military forces, ground forces in particular, have operated at a high pace since the attacks of September 11, 2001, including the support of ongoing operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Between 2001 and July 2007, approximately 931,000 US Army and Marine Corps service members deployed for overseas military operations, including about 312,000 National Guard or Reserve members, according to the Department of Defense.

To support ongoing military operations and related activities, the U.S. Congress has appropriated billions of dollars since 2001, and through September 2007, the Department of Defense has reported obligating about $492.2 billion to cover these expenses, of which a large portion are related to readiness.

In addition, DOD’s annual appropriation, now totaling about $480 billion for fiscal year 2008, includes funds to cover readiness needs.

Weaponizing the Pentagon’s Cyborg Insects

by Tom Engelhardt and Nick Turse by Tom Engelhardt and Nick Turse DIGG THIS We at Tomdispatch love anniversaries. So how could we have forgotten DARPA’s for so many months? This very year, the Pentagon’s research outfit, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), turns 50 old. Happy birthday, DARPA! You were born as a response to the Soviet Union’s launching of the first earth-girdling satellite, Sputnik, which gave Americans a mighty shock. To prevent another “technological surprise” by the Soviets – or anybody else, any time, ever – the agency has grown into the Pentagon’s good right arm, always there to reach into the future and grab another wild idea for weaponization. Each year, DARPA now spends about $3 billion on a two-fold mission: “to prevent technological surprise for us and to create technological surprise for our adversaries.”

Ride Herd On Local School Boards

by Linda Schrock Taylor

DIGG THIS

I am stunned at how few citizens correctly evaluate government schools in America; at how many people misjudge their own local school districts. Parents are too often guilty of ignoring or recreating reality as they avoid the necessity of taking action. Too often parents are busy supporting their children in every kind of school activity…except those involving Reading, Writing, and ’Rithmetic. If children bring home A’s and B’s, all must been fine at school, right? Not always. Grade inflation has taken the meaning out of grades and scores. One only needs to teach freshman English classes at a college or university to remove any lingering doubts. However, the general population has neither the opportunities to see the whole picture, nor do they demand that policy makers and administrators keep them accurately informed. Remember, it is local school boards that are condoning and voting for policies that administrators request that they pass.

“The picture Ortega y Gassett draws of the mass man is not an attractive or flattering one, but Ortega is not a snob who simply excoriates the appalling habits and tastes of those below him in the social scale. For him, mass man is the man who has no transcendent purpose in life, who lives in an eternal present moment which he wants to make pleasurable in a gross and sensual way, who thinks that ever-increasing consumption is the end of life, who goes from distraction to distraction, who is prey to absurd fashions, who never thinks deeply and who, above all, has a venomous dislike of any other way of living but his own, which he instinctively feels as a reproach.”

Terror U What’s behind the boom in homeland-security and emergency-management majors?

---

Terror U

The traditionally slow-moving education industry is churning out a slew of students with specialties in “mass catastrophe” and “international disaster.” More than 200 colleges have created homeland-security degree and certificate programs since 9/11, and another 144 have added emergency management with a terrorism bent.

Homeland security is outpacing most other majors in part because governments and corporations are hungry to hire professionals schooled in disaster. One-quarter of the top slots—from presidential appointments to high-level civil servants to scientific posts—at the Department of Homeland Security remained empty last year.

Spring Fling in Iran — Updating World War III

Capt. Eric H. May Military Analysis

The very term “global war” is a mere euphemism for World War III. We are caught up in it now, a vast struggle with no end in sight. The 2008 United States presidential election won’t change things, since it will simply pit a Republican who truly promises a war without end against a Democrat who falsely promises to end the war. It will be a meaningless coin toss: heads, war wins; tails, peace loses.
Many intellectuals, both those far to the right and far to the left, agree about this much. They also agree about the beginning date for the ongoing world war: September 11, 2001.
From a right-wing perspective, 9/11 is the day Al Qaeda terrorists carried out a new Pearl Harbor attack against us. A righteous sense of national unity ushered in a “post-9/11 reality,” and introduced words and concepts now familiar to all of us. We were protecting our “Homeland” by creating a “Patriot Act” and a “Department of Homeland Security.” We were conducting a “Global War on Terror” against an “Axis of Evil” led by “Islamofascists,” before they could carry out an even more devastating attack against us. The UK and Israel were our best friends in the “Generational War” that had been thrust upon us.

In response to an LRC review of a (Distortion of) History Channel “documentary” on Sherman’s march to the sea by Clyde Wilson, Valerie Protopapas of Huntington Station, New York, took it upon herself to go to the library and research Sherman herself. Sherman’s History Channel image of a heroic and benevolent egalitarian just sounded like, well, like a lie to her. So out of the blue she wrote Professor Wilson (who now describes himself as a recovering academic historian) that “the truth about Sherman and his genocidal beliefs (and tactics) is, like Lincoln’s views on race and slavery, well reported but ignored.”

He was born on the great plains of the mid-west. Some say his father’s name was Richard, other say it was Lucifer. Ain’t a soul around who knows for sure…’ceptin maybe Lucifer. Soon after bein’ born, Deadeye found hisself in the Wyoming terror-tories. There he grew into a fine young man who flunked out of Yale and had few run-ins with Johnny-law for driving his automobile after taking a nip or two.

He come outta that mess with a clear head and when it came time serve his country and fight the godless commies, he told Uncle Sam he had other priorities…five times.

Eventually he had to serve somewhere (the someone ain’t quite so clear), so got hisself elected to Congress and served there a while. But ol’ Deadeye wasn’t a fella who thought small, and being a congressmen was small potatoes. So he worked his way up.

Lost Patriots
By Cal Thomas

BOSTON — Following Sept. 11, 2001, a day of infamy on which nearly 3,000 died at the hands of terrorists, the New York Times began publishing the names and pictures of the dead. I made a deliberate effort to look at those pictures and to read each victim’s name and hometown. I wanted to identify with them as much as possible.

Now the Times has published more pictures, names and ages, this time of American war dead. They are part of the 4,000 to have fallen in Iraq and nearly another 500 in Afghanistan since those wars began. They — and their families — deserve our gratitude.

Some politicians who oppose the war — mostly Democrats, but a few Republicans — offer obligatory and oblique references to “the troops” and their bravery, while undermining their sacrifice and objectives by calling for their immediate withdrawal. That is not a policy, unless one regards surrender and retreat only to fight a bloodier war another day policy.

Captain Courageous and the Shockingly Awful Quicksand War….

‘First In’ Honors: The Infowar Of Capt. Eric H. May

Honors Recognition

As much as I may feel humbled as a former Marine officer to grant “first in” honors to an Army cavalry and intelligence counterpart (after all, “First To Fight” has always been a U.S. Marine Corps motto), we must give credit to those who lead the charge.

It is now the fifth anniversary of America’s invasion of Iraq, and of the extraordinary intellectual evolution by Captain Eric May. He peeled back layers of deception to expose America’s real enemies (from within) — and possibly sacrificed his own life in the process.

Captain May published five military op-eds in the Houston Chronicle. They are most impressive in their prescience. In 1992 the junior general staff officer accurately predicted the course of the future Iraq War. He also accurately predicted forthcoming events in Somalia. In 2003 he wrote a terror target analysis of the Houston petrochemical district that became standard text for local first responder training within a year. His two early Iraq War essays anticipated a quicksand war in the Middle East that might well turn into World War III. This viewpoint seemed outlandish at the time, but now it is standard among mainstream Bush critics. Four out of five essays have been spot on, and he has worked tirelessly to prevent the fifth forecast, namely the nuking of Houston, from becoming true.

Lone Star Lone Ranger

EDITORIAL Wednesday, March 26, 2008 – By W. Leon Smith, Iconoclast Publisher

Lone Star Lone Ranger There are only two possible views of Captain Eric H. May, who has been the Iconoclast intelligence correspondent for the last two years. The first, cogently presented by Marine Corps Major William B. Fox in his article, Captain Courageous: The Infowar of Eric H. May, is that he is brilliant and brave officer of historic consequence. According to this view, Captain May self-mobilized to answer the call of duty and country at a time when such dedication was most needed. The second is that Captain May is either delusional or deceitful, or both. According to this view, he has consistently written, spoken and acted on the most controversial events and issues of our times in a vainglorious attempt at self aggrandizement.

Greedy resource seizure put England into desperate financial straits. From 1642 to 1649, goldsmiths and successful merchants helped finance the English Revolution as well as Oliver Cromwell’s pursuit and execution of King Charles. The government of King William III (reigned from February 13, 1689 to March 8, 1702) was in desperate need of money. William Patterson, seeing an exploitive opportunity, assembled a cartel of wealthy men who agreed to loan the king £1.2 million on the condition that the king pay 8% interest per year. Additionally, the cartel wanted the king to grant a charter creating The Bank of England (established July 27, 1694) which would give the cartel the “sole and exclusive right” to issue notes unprotected by bank assets.

During the 1860s-70s, Congress omitted language from the 15 th Amendment guaranteeing women the right to vote. A hundred years later, it was ready to break new legislative ground. In Frontiero v. Richardson (1973), Justice Brennan opined that sex discrimination was on par with race discrimination. If his had been the prevailing opinion, the Court would have once again passed a constitutional amendment into law. In Craig v. Boren (1976) the Court invalidated an Oklahoma law setting the male drinking age at 21 and the female at 18. In making the law, the Oklahoma legislature had relied on the evidence that boys 18 to 20 were 11 times more likely to be arrested for alcohol-related driving infractions than those aged 21 or older. But, Justice Brennan substituted his “elevated expertise” for the wisdom of a local, elected legislature. There is no relationship between this ruling and the court’s previous definition of the Equal Protection Clause being for the purpose of protecting freed slaves from their masters.

WITCHCRAFT ON THE HOME SHOPPING NETWORK?

WITCHCRAFT ON THE HOME SHOPPING NETWORK?

Last week I received an email from a pastor asking if I’d help inform the public of the Home Shopping Network’s participation in peddling witchcraft. Included in Dr. Greg Allen’s email was a letter addressed to HSN accusing the company of selling materials with spiritual principles that can be used to “teach their ‘power’ and promote New Age spirituality.” It seems HSN is marketing the Evolve with John Edward collection. Since I don’t watch HSN, I have no idea what products are being peddled to the public. So I needed to visit the website.

It just never stops! Last week I was contacted by a reliable source that had put together the nightmare connections of some of Obama’s fundraisers and supporters (for details go to www.therothshow.com and click on Jim Kouri’s article link as well). A few of these connections have been quickly touched on then avoided in most of the media. The current facts, names, places and events dropped on me last week from a very reliable former CIA agent are currently making the Internet rounds but interestingly seem to be non existent when it comes to the “big dogs” in media and TV. This will be most fascinating to see if anyone in media actually sees Obama’s chronic pattern of poor choices with fund raising supporters and anti American loud mouths. Is anyone home?

The Essence of Liberty: Part 269 (1) From Affirmative Action to Sodomy

The Essence of Liberty: Part 269 (1)  Compiled by  Dr. Jimmy T. (Gunny) LaBaume  A Summary of Gutzman, Kevin R.C. The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Constitution  (The book is available from the Ludwig von Mises Institute at http://www.mises.org)  Chapter 12: The Court’s Brave New World: From Affirmative Action to Sodomy  Affirmative Action Lyndon Johnson instituted “affirmative action” which has since come to be little more than “benign race discrimination.” The Supreme Court got into the act with Griggs v. Duke Power Co. (1971). Duke Power required a high school diploma and a certain aptitude test score for employment and promotion. The Court found this to be racially discriminatory and declared that employment standards had to be “reasonably related” to the relevant job. Businesses responded by hiring and promoting staff on a racial basis—i.e. the non-discrimination policy has, in effect, resulted in a virtual mandate to discriminate. Quotas also appeal to university administrators. In University of California Board of Regents v. Bakke (1978), Allan Blake had been denied admission to the UC Medical School even though his qualifications were better than those of all the minority candidates that were admitted. The Court’s decision was nonsensical. Four of the judges would have upheld UC’s program, four would not have and the fifth voted to force “the school to admit Bakke while also stating that schools could give particular races and ethnic groups special privileges to augment ‘educational diversity.’” But, these admissions had to be “on the margin” – i.e. outright quotas could not be used. Ironically, “…given the enormous disparity between the qualifications of most students admitted…and those of the preferred minority…marginal “affirmative action” would have admitted few, if any, specially privileged minority students.”

Cheney: War Is Not The People’s Business Administration Not Listening To Public….

UPDATED: 8:59 am EDT March 27, 2008

WASHINGTON — Back in President Lyndon B. Johnson’s worst days when he was grappling with the Vietnam quagmire and raucous anti-war protests at home, he said that in the big decisions about war and peace, “The people should be in on the takeoffs as well as the landings.”Tell that to President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, who apparently could care less what Americans think — except every four years at election time.Cheney made that clear in an intriguing interview with ABC News on his recent Middle East trip. Despite the difficulties surrounding the unprovoked U.S. invasion of Iraq five years ago, Cheney insisted, “It was the right thing to do.”When the interviewer told him that two-thirds of Americans say the war in Iraq is not worth fighting, Cheney scoffed.The administration would not be “blown off-course by the fluctuations in public opinion polls,” he vowed.

Listening to Bill Buckley Give a Speech Was a Painful Experience

by Bill Bonner
by Bill Bonner

DIGG THIS

Listening to Bill Buckley give a speech was a painful experience. It was like watching an old cow give birth. The words came out so slowly…and then you were inevitably disappointed. You expected more. A man who took so long to choose his words ought to come up with something better. But Buckley’s words were always a little slimy.

Still, the pompous tone did its job. The common, naturally-conservative American thought he heard an angel singing…and thought he saw something practically divine in Buckley’s palaver. He had found nobility he could bend to…a man whose looks, wealth, and education and family rivalled the Kennedys’.

Gringos here in Mexico talk endlessly about how they love and admire the Mexican people, how friendly the natives are, how wonderful the culture is and, by strong implication, how wonderful the gringos are for appreciating Mexico. Actually they don’t. They live in gated communities in the hills, can’t speak three words of Spanish, and have surprisingly little contact with the country. They have invented a Mexico that doesn’t exist, and have fallen in love with it.

Hands free, you sit back and begin to read the morning paper—which is flashed on a flat TV screen over the car’s dashboard. Tapping a button changes the page.

Why Ron Paul Scares the GOP

By Michael Grunwald

There used to be an organization for people who believed in a truly limited government — limited taxes, limited spending, limited interference in individual lives and limited intervention in foreign affairs. That organization was known as the Republican Party. But the only one of those beliefs that still motivates the G.O.P. establishment is limited taxes. In 2008, people who still hold all of them joined the Ron Paul Revolution.

The Nuisance Next Time?

by John Liechty by John Liechty DIGG THIS With what a Japanese student of mine called “national erections” around the corner, I find myself in a familiar state of bewilderment. First, I can’t drop the notion that a nation that’s produced Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Edison, Billie Holiday and Billy Wilder, Miles Davis and Miles Standish, Al Kaline, Dorothy Day, Cole Porter, Sacagawea, Ben Franklin, Merle Haggard, Marilyn Monroe, and Winslow Homer might just be expected to scrape up a presidential nominee whose level of intellect, character, and competence surpasses that of the Decider Guy we’ve enjoyed over the last eight, or has it been eighty, years. Is this so much to expect?

War Dream

by Rick Fisk by Rick Fisk DIGG THIS I recently had an incredible dream. It involved mostly characters I know, but also some I didn’t know. With some dreams, if I even remember them, I rarely know what they “mean” but this one was crystal clear and was a perfect illustration of why empires fall and why its former subjects suffer. In my dream I was visiting my father, a veteran who served just prior to Viet Nam. The first scene took place during an air show. Because my father’s house (in this dream) had a vantage point to the airfield, we weren’t at the air show but were watching it through a huge picture window. A big, green C-130, retrofitted with newer turbo props had taken off and flown right over the house. It passed so closely that I could see the pilot’s facial expressions as the plane buzzed low over the house. He was followed by a small single-engine Cessna. His pass over us preceded a diving turn into the valley below as preparation for a pass over the airfield behind us.

Operation Cassandra by William S. Lind

Admiral Fallon’s (forced?) resignation was the last warning we are likely to get of an attack on Iran. It does not mean an attack is certain, but the U.S. could not attack Iran so long as he was the CENTCOM commander. That obstacle is now gone.

Vice President Cheney’s Middle East tour is another indicator. According to a report in The American Conservative, on his previous trip Cheney told our allies, including the Saudis, that Bush would attack Iran before the end of his term. If that report was correct, then his current tour might have the purpose of telling them when it is coming.

The Essence of Liberty: Part 268 (1)  Compiled by  Dr. Jimmy T. (Gunny) LaBaume  A Summary of Gutzman, Kevin R.C. The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Constitution  (The book is available from the Ludwig von Mises Institute at http://www.mises.org)  Chapter 12: The Court’s Brave New World: From Affirmative Action to Sodomy The Court decided that “all deliberate speed” was not desegregating the schools fast enough. So, in Green v. County School Board of New Kent County (1968) it declared that public schools must achieve racial balance immediately. Since it wasn’t getting the results it wanted, the Court ruled that voluntary desegregation plans were unacceptable. Ironically (or maybe not so), the Court now insisted on assigning students to schools on the basis of their race when, in Brown v. Board of Education, it had prohibited that. In other words, in order to “implement” Brown , the court inverted it. And, busing (even the youngest) students between neighborhoods became required by the “constitution.” Based on the racialist assumption that black students could never receive an equal education while going to school with other black students, this judicially mandated social experiment became a national political issue and especially in areas where schools had never been segregated. Meantime, notorious for their hypocrisy, wealthy liberals supported the Court’s decision but sent their children to private schools.

How war hero John McCain betrayed the Vietnamese peasant who saved his life

Last updated at 01:10am on 23rd March 2008 Comments

In all the tales of wartime courage peppering John McCain’s presidential campaign trail, perhaps the most outstanding example of selfless heroism involves not the candidate but a humble Vietnamese peasant.On October 26, 1967, Mai Van On ran from the safety of a bomb shelter at the height of an air raid and swam out into the lake where Lieutenant Commander McCain was drowning, tangled in his parachute cord after ejecting when his Skyhawk bomber was hit by a missile.

<>In an extraordinary act of compassion at a time when Vietnamese citizens were being killed by US aerial bombardments, he pulled a barely conscious McCain to the lake surface and, with the help of a neighbour, dragged him towards the shore.

On Five Years in Iraq by Ron Paul

by Ron Paul by Ron Paul DIGG THIS Five years ago last week, the US military’s “shock and awe” campaign lit up the Baghdad sky. Five years later, with hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and nearly four thousand Americans dead, we should pause and reflect on just what has been gained and what has been lost. From the beginning, the march to war was paved with false assumptions and lies. Senior administration officials claimed repeatedly that Iraq was somehow responsible for the attacks of September 11, 2001. They claimed that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. They manipulated the fear of the American people after 9/11 to further a war agenda that they had been planning years before that attack. The mainstream media was complicit in this war propaganda.

In recent weeks the developing campaign for Presidency has generated belated scrutiny of Jeremiah Wright, pastor of a Church in Chicago attended for twenty years by Barrack Hussein Obama. As noted in this and other spaces, Mr. Wright made many ebullient, impassioned and profane speeches denouncing America as a KKK state, etc. Mr. Obama is ‘shocked’ to hear of these matters and Mr. Wright has resigned. While claiming to ‘transcend race,’ Obama spoke about “typical white men.” But this is only the end of a tangled and unappealing skein that involves the religion and religious professions of Mr. Obama, ignorance about “race relations” in America, about religious intolerance and about the goals of those, like him, who would Balkanize America: “change you can depend on.”

Even if you “just” have questions; Even if things don’t add up from a common sense point of view and you want to ask Why, you are laughed at and labeled as a “conspiracy theorist” or unpatriotic. The ignorant don’t want to debate in any way. They don’t want to ask questions or seek the truth. They have been manipulated for so long that it’s too hard for them to wrap their minds around the fact that in some way, our government was involved with 911 and the subsequent cover up.

The gov’t was not inept in the Katrina disaster, they were criminally negligent. Locking people in the Dome, cutting emergency phone lines, turning awy water…I hope the victims get to sit on the jury.

We need an independent investigation to find the truth. Don’t Americans deserve to know the truth? Governments cannot be trusted, history proves it! How many people understand how the Federal Reserve system works? Should a simple economic principle like creating money out of thin air be taught in Introductory Macroeconomics classes? It is elsewhere, but not in the US. What I don’t underdstand is why Americans(except for maybe a percent or two) are just sooooo Stupid?

Ron Paul was a guest on Coast To Coast AM with George Noory from 1 – 2 AM on March 25, 2008. During questions a disingenuous Neocon named Joe called in to ask Ron Paul about his supporters believing in “conspiracy theories”. This was similar to what CNN did during the debates.

Ron Paul answered and said while he did not believe the Government did 9/11 he was not satisfied with the investigation and would like a new investigation into 9/11.

If you have not yet watched Loose Change Final Cut, please do as the film proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the official story is hogwash and that all the evidence points towards an inside job. Here is the link to watch the film.

The Constitution–Compact or Unitary Compulsion? by Al Benson Jr.

The Constitution–Compact or Unitary Compulsion?

by Al Benson Jr.

 

Awhile back, someone that I think must have been a student, contacted me. He informed me that he was studying the topic of secession and asked me a question regarding that subject. He wanted to know–can a state secede from the Union without the agreement of the other states, or “parties to the compact,” as he expressed it. His terminology was interesting (and correct), as most folks don’t refer to the Constitution as a compact anymore, and mostly haven’t since the conclusion of the military aspect of the War of Northern Aggression.

The Essence of Liberty: Part 267 (1) The civil rights legislation of the 1960s

The Essence of Liberty: Part 267 (1)  Compiled by  Dr. Jimmy T. (Gunny) LaBaume  A Summary of Gutzman, Kevin R.C. The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Constitution  (The book is available from the Ludwig von Mises Institute at http://www.mises.org)  Chapter 11: The Court on Pornography, Crime, and Race  The civil rights legislation of the 1960s The constitutionality of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was in question. No small reason for that is the fact that the Court had ruled that the almost identical Civil Rights Act of 1875 was unconstitutional. But there was no intent on the justices’ part to be bound by history. Instead, they went into the business of giving America a “new law for a new day.” In Heart of Atlanta Motel, Inc. v. United States (1964) the motel owner said that he could not be compelled to open his motel to blacks because it would violate his private property rights and the 13 th Amendment. The government’s telling him what he could do with his property amounted to forcing him into involuntary servitude. He also denied that renting a room was “interstate commerce.” But, the Court held that the Civil Rights Act was valid under the Commerce Clause, even though regulating interstate commerce had not been its intent. In short, the Court said that Congress’s powers under the Clause were virtually unlimited. This was a momentous curtailment of traditional property rights.

S.P.L.C. SHOWING ITS TRUE COLORS

By Lynn Stuter

A recent article appeared in the Sierra Vista Herald newspaper of Sierra Vista, Arizona in which Glenn Spencer of American Border Patrol became the target of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). According to the SPLC, the American Border Patrol is a “hate group.”

Going on the SPLC website, clicking on “hate map” and clicking on Arizona, one discovers that, sure enough, there is American Border Patrol listed as “anti-immigrant.”
