Like every other Sunday Mass attending Catholic, I was treated to a letter from my archbishop Sunday morning decrying the political maneuvers of the Obama administration in regards to human reproduction, the medical efforts to stymie it and the dictation that all employers, and medical facilities must finance and provide it.

THE MORALITY OF CAPITALISM
Feb 7
While penning this ode to capitalism I peered out my window onto my garden. It was in its final days of full flower and the dynamics of its beauty caused my mind to drift into a pensive state. I found myself enthralled by the luminous emerald green grass, the strength and dignity of the mighty [...]

Much Ado About Not Reading the Whole Story

Are You Ready for a Total Socialist Government?
Jan 28
Sometimes a simple question can become complicated. Perhaps the question should be, “Have we adjusted to the cultural change to the point that we are ready for a different form of government to control our new culture?” The culture sixty years ago was quite different from what is observed today. Why did it change so much [...]
I am a 2 percenter
Let’s see. I retire at 67, so everything I make over that if I continue to work some, gets taxed at a rate beyond belief. Let’s say you make 330 grand a year, first, why retire? So since most 2 percenters wont, they still pay income tax, social security,(until they die) and do not even collect on the 60 years of paying into social security and medicare. Now tell me a 2 percenter does not pay their fair share into the social systems of this country. All you wall street protesters, your welcome, why?, for it is I and my fellow 2 percenters that have made a huge lifelong donation to you while you camp out and bitch, like a little bitch. HEY!, pick up that friggin trash around your tent.

Articulating an American Grand Strategy
If we take into account the broadest implications of President Obama’s disastrous domestic and foreign policies, a few strategical revisions for America’s future are in order. The following presents a fairly clear and comprehensive roadmap for helping the United States become a more freer, more prosperous, and securer nation.
1. The U.S. should act in its own self-interest first and foremost as a political mandate determining its foreign policy grand strategy.
Americans Slumber On While Progressives Take Over Internet & Embrace Muslim Brotherhood
If you watched the news today, you might wonder what those little blips between Republican campaign reporting were. They were so short, and yet so unbelievable, that you might think you dreamed them. They were so outrageous that you might think it was actually a nightmare. But then, thank goodness, the smiling reporter returns to scenes of balloons, flags & glitter- the campaign trail!- and you feel much better. Reassured that none of it was what you thought you heard.
Take over the Internet? Make Eric Holder (Mr. Fast ‘n Furious) the new Internet Czar? Control the last bastion of truly open communication in the United States? Censorship like they have in China?

GERMANY DOESN’T NEED WWIII TO CONQUER EUROPE- IT JUST BOUGHT IT
DAVID CAMERON STANDING STRONG, BUT STARTING TO WAFFLE…
by The Rebel
“BRUSSELS— The European Union said Friday that 26 of its 27 member countries are open to joining a new treaty tying their finances together to solve the euro crisis. Only Britain remains opposed, creating a deep rift in the union. In marathon overnight talks, the 17 countries that use the euro gradually persuaded nearly all the others to consider joining the new treaty they would create. Some of those countries may face parliamentary opposition to the treaty, which would allow for unprecedented oversight of national budgets.”
Germany has nearly accomplished its lifelong goal of conquering Europe. And nary a shot has been fired. Turns out that all they needed to do was buy it. I happened to be in Germany working as a contractor when the Euro was being shoved down Europe’s throat. No one trusted it. Read the rest of this entry
The Role of Christianity in History

Lessons from the Roman Conquest of the Britons
Nothing forthcoming should be alleged to be in advocacy of theocratic government, a fusion of political and social power repressive to those minds not disposed to believe in the invisible or the not easily demonstrable, and an arrangement of civil government laid to waste during The Enlightenment. But it should be noted the role religion plays in reinforcing the bases of moral authority in the state.
The following is a passage from the Scottish philosopher David Hume’s A History of England. A relatively early section on The Britons, strewn with citations from eminent first hand sources like Julius Caesar and historians of the caliber of Tacitus and the Venerable Bede, makes explicit the necessity of crushing the religion of a conquered people in order to make them obedient and useful servants of the state.
Firstly, let us consider the role of the Druids among the Britons in preserving the social and political order. In this caste resided considerable power, and its functions were varied and vital to the tribe. [Continued at Rogue Government]

Climategate II: Emails Provide Early Christmas for Manmade Global Warming Deniers
Sometimes the holiday season does come early. For the Green Grinches intent on stealing our freedom, along with a whole lot of our dough, a bevy of swiped emailgifts being dubbed Climategate II released near midnight the 21st promise a different kind of Cyber Monday for the multi-billion dollar climate fraud industry.
Among the Who-pudding and roast beast is a feast of political-scientific incest exposing the lucrative business of warm-mongering. The examples are many, but a sit down with a cup of coffee and an eye to examining the political assumptions behind the climate “science” can be revelatory for even the non-specialist (like all of those lawyers and rights activists who participated in the first IPCC).

Dave’s Quote of the Day
“Today, not even the White House seems sure that its healthcare reform bill is constitutional. . . . President Obama campaigned against the individual mandate at the heart of the controversy over constitutionality, and the decision to embrace it was not a natural one for him. The second guessing is well under way. . . . An inescapable question unavoidably follows. If the authors of this historic reform were that careless and clueless about the central pillar of their plan, what else did they get wrong?” – WALTER RUSSELL MEAD

Dave’s Quote of the Day
“Our intellectual, cultural, and political elites are today engaged in one of the most audacious and ambitious experiments in history. They are trying to transform a Western Christian republic into an egalitarian democracy made up of all the tribes, races, creeds, and cultures of planet Earth. They have dethroned our God, purged our cradle faith from public life, and repudiated the Judeo-Christian moral code by which previous generations sought to live.”

The Slippery Slope in Action – Homosexuals sue for even more “rights”
If you give them an inch they will take a mile. Folks like me hate to say “I told you so” but “I told you so.” Once you start to act like sexual perversion, decadence, and deviancy is ‘normal’ then this is what you get. I am very sorry and even somewhat sympathetic that these people have some sexual identity and gender confusion issues but don’t ask for my stamp of approval on it and for the government and the taxpayer to encourage, fund, mainstream, coddle, or otherwise excuse and validate it.
“A group of married gay current and former military personnel sued the U.S. government on Thursday, seeking equal recognition, benefits and the same support as married heterosexual couples who serve in the military.
The lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Boston says the government’s Defense of Marriage Act violates their constitutional rights and asks the military to recognize their legal marriages.”

The Left’s Insignificance

Individualists often struggle to understand what drives someone on the left to cede personal power over his own life to the state.

CPUSA Marches With Jan Schakowsky At #OccupyChicago

As luck would have it, one of my “favorite” left-wing, bigoted race-baiters in Congress, Sheila Jackson Lee recently weighed in for black Americans, saying Barack Obama should change his recent call from “Buy American” to “Buy African-American.” No word yet from the Regime as to whether Obama plans to honor Ms. Lee’s request.

We’re All Xenophobes Now
The foreign, the alien, the unfamiliar is held out by the American left as one of the main causes of social conflict. Those citizens who stubbornly believe in their own particular ideology or creed are thus held out as particularistic, selfish, dogmatic, bigoted, chauvinist, jingoistic, and xenophobic.
But most Americans are not opposed to changing their system of government and moral code because they are afraid of the foreign because it is foreign. [Continued]
A Fate Worse Than War
Modern political scientists weave their utopian schemes of world peace from the safe, comfy environments of university faculty lounges, stocked with amenities and luxuries only dreamed of in the centralized, state-planned economies of their imaginations. The two primary agendas of today’s intellectual elites, world peace and a world without want, are interrelated in ways seldom contemplated by the intelligentsia, since they are blinded to deeper introspection by the unquestioned group think regarding their “good intentions.”
The motivation to build a world of peace and harmony is the foundation of the study of political science in the United States. Such a drive is expressed well in Stephen van Evera’s Causes of War, on the very first page: [Continued]

Pop Subversion
Conservatives tend to ignore pop music and see it as frivolous junk cluttering up the airwaves. But a closer look at the culture industry reveals it as an insidious piece of the totalitarian puzzle, as potent as any bullets or bombs could be in forcing Americans into collectivism, if not more so.
Before explaining why and how the music industry is an implemental part of the left’s scheme to demoralize America, let’s set the stage by looking at the first ten songs of Billboard’s Hot 100 in the Pop category for the week ending 9-17-2011: [Continued]
