So on target! It is bewildering in the realm of common sense that these folks would play the "I can't Hear You" game with such energy and dedication. This is truly a case of the "Emperor has no clothes" and the crowd is too frightened to acknowledge the blatant truth before their eyes.

Dear B, America can NOT endure another four years under the control of Barack Hussein Obama. If you thought his first term was bad, you ain't seen nothing yet. That's why I'm thrilled that Americans across the country have flocked to Dinesh D'Souza's new documentary, "2016." Movie critics are calling it the surprise hit of the season. And that's why I want to make sure you have Dinesh D'Souza's blockbuster book, Obama's America: Unmaking the American Dream. This is the book that hit #1 on the New York Times bestseller list and it is the driving force behind D'Souza's new movie. For a limited time, you can get this bestselling book, Obama's America, for just $3.95. In this new bestselling book, D'Souza reveals Obama's real aim: to diminish the footprint of America in the world. According to D'Souza, rather than champion American interests at home or abroad, Obama has appointed himself the architect of American decline. The book provides shocking evidence showing how Obama has laid the seeds to ensure that by 2016 America will be just one of the herd. Take advantage of our incredible offer to get THE book that spurred this summer's blockbuster movie. Get Obama's America: Unmaking the American Dream at the incredibly low price of $3.95. For the movement and for you,  Tom Winter Editor-in-Chief Emeritus, Human Events |

On Liberal Fascism by Jonathan Goldberg
Vichy Lives
For those of you without long memories or a properly functioning Way Back Machine, you may not know that I wrote a book calledLiberal Fascism. Unlike a golden retriever I once knew who ate a whole paperback copy of The Catcher in the Rye, I'm not going to vomit up the whole book here. But one of my core arguments was that fascism was a phenomenon of the Left if you go by what constitutes being on the right in the Anglo-American tradition.(One reason liberals hated the book is that I defined my terms.) In America and England, conservatism has many varieties, but an emphasis on individual liberty and a limited government runs through all of them.
On the European continent things were different. An American libertarian pilgrim in, say, late-19th or early-20th century Germany searching for a political home would be like when Ellwood asks the bartender, "What kind of music do you usually have here?" inThe Blues Brothers. She responds, "Oh, we got both kinds: countryand western."
In Germany they had two kinds of political philosophies, statist and really statist. American progressives liked the former more than the latter. From LF:
No European statesman loomed larger in the minds and hearts of American progressives than Otto von Bismarck. As inconvenient as it may be for those who have been taught "the continuity between Bismarck and Hitler," writes Eric Goldman, Bismarck's Germany was "a catalytic of American progressive thought." Bismarck's "top- down socialism," which delivered the eight-hour workday, health care, social insurance, and the like, was the gold standard for enlightened social policy. "Give the working-man the right to work as long as he is healthy; assure him care when he is sick; assure him maintenance when he is old," he famously told the Reichstag in 1862. Bismarck was the original "Third Way" figure who triangulated be- tween both ends of the ideological spectrum. "A government must not waver once it has chosen its course. It must not look to the left or right but go forward," he proclaimed. Teddy Roosevelt's 1912 national Progressive Party platform conspicuously borrowed from the Prussian model. Twenty-five years earlier, the political scientist Woodrow Wilson wrote that Bismarck's welfare state was an "admirable system . . . the most studied and most nearly perfected" in the world.
Anyway, like me after eating two bratwursts, I could go on but I probably shouldn't. But the thing I want to get to is that my argument was received by the Left the way my dog responds to that woman in yoga pants doing Tai-Chi in the park, i.e. with total irrational rage and contempt. (It really is awesome when Cosmo sees someone doing Tai-Chi at the dog park. He starts barking wildly "What are you doing!?" "Your strange poses and movements make me uncomfortable!" "Stop that!" "I'm Serious! Your weirding way defiles all I hold holy!") A couple of years after Liberal Fascism came out, the History News Network organized a symposium on the book (at first they didn't even want to invite me to participate or respond). The 800-pound gorilla in the gang-up was Robert O. Paxton, arguably the leading living scholar of fascism. You can read his critique here, and my omnibus responsehere I loved it, because it reassured me that while I didn't necessarily get every single thing right, if that was the very best the scholarly community could do to rebut my book, that meant, well, I won.
Anyhow, I bring all of this up because Robert Paxton has a really interesting essay in the current New York Review of Books in which he unwittingly echoes so many of my arguments. French social democracy -- what we would call liberalism in America today -- is deeply indebted to Vichy fascism. The French Left has an instinctual aversion to hearing this because they find such facts mean. The modern welfare state is not antithetical to fascism but essential to it. Etc., etc. He writes:
All the modern twentieth-century European dictatorships of the right, both fascist and authoritarian, were welfare states. The current American conservative agenda of a weak state associated with laissez-faire economic and social arrangements would have been anathema to them, as an extreme perversion of a despised individualistic liberalism (in that term's original sense). They all provided medical care, pensions, affordable housing, and mass transport as a matter of course, in order to maintain productivity, national unity, and social peace.
As Glenn Reynolds might say: Heh.
Ben Carson Book Review
by Dr. Linda Johnston
America the Beautiful is by Ben Carson, MD, the neurosurgeon who recently took conservatives by storm with his pithy speech at the National Prayer Breakfast. Joining many others, I was encouraged by his candor, common sense and grasp of conservative ideas.
His rise from abject poverty and a broken home to such professional heights is a compelling and inspiring American success story. I was fully expecting to love his book. Unfortunately, reading his ideas rather than hearing speeches is sobering and disillusioning. He was a McGovern/Carter Democrat, who, despite having his eyes opened by Reagan, still has some of those principles interwoven in his policy framework.
He believes in “embracing the positive aspects of socialism”, thinks government should pay for doctors’ education, some businesses should be protected from competition by government imposed trade barriers, “health care basics” should be universally free and wouldn’t increase our debt even a penny and he wants nuclear disarmament.
Whereas he does have some good ideas, looked at closely, many are naïve in the extreme and based on the notion that our country and the world would be far better if we just got along with each other. While true, it is hardly a plan to deal with the realpolitik of our problems and the bare-knuckle tactics of progressivism.
His speech at CPAC was also well received and there are now rumors that he might take a swipe at a presidential run. The last thing the GOP needs is another inexperienced, naïve, easy talking man with a few ideas that sound good in theory, and who thinks that capitalism and socialism make a good marriage, offering the best of both worlds. A Sarah Palin he is not.
For a consistent and true conservative, it is best to stick with Thomas Sowell. All that glitters is definitely not gold. - - Linda Johnston, MD
Hi, Readers!
November 22, 2013 will be the fiftieth anniversary of the “Palace Coup” that removed a lawfully elected President and replaced him with the puppet of the world’s military/industrial complex. Over the next few months we can expect a new barrage of the same old tripe from the news media about how Lee Harvey Oswald shot “magic bullets” into JFK. It is time you learned the truth.
This book (cover is attached) is different because the main premise is one that almost nobody (outside of those who have studied the case) is aware even existed – that of the two Oswalds being involved all the while, Harvey and Lee, and how the “powers that be” got away with it. That these facts have been in print for 15 years and still remain obscure to the public is another exposure of the lack of investigating reporting in our current mainstream news media. Here is what noted British author and historian John Hamer just told me via email:

Hi again, Pat: Thanks for your latest work. Started reading it and couldn’t stop! Wow. Brilliant piece of investigative writing, my friend. As far as I am concerned that is as close to conclusive proof as it's possible to get.
When a man who is honestly mistaken hears the truth, he will either cease being mistaken or cease being honest–and far too often it is the latter.
Absolutely love this sentence. I've never heard it said that way before, but it is really accurate. You didn't have it in quotes, so I guess it is original. Good on ya', mate!
As one reviewer of your previous book said, "Shannan is no conspiracy theorist, he is a conspiracy scientist." I agree 100%. Keep up the good work. John Hamer http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/John_Hamer ; http://www.theconspiracyreview.com/the-falsification-of-history.html
If you would like to read what Mr. Hamer is complimenting, the pre-publication price of this coffee table/bedside, autographed reader is but one LAWFUL dollar of pre-1965 90% silver coins OR $20 of current counterfeit “dollars” issued and circulated by the Federal Reserve and your local banks. Either way, shipping and handling is included (and even something extra). PayPal at this email is okay to use for payment as well.
Yours for Truth,

“consequently, that the ultimate right of the parties to the Constitution (i.e. the States), to judge whether the compact has been dangerously violated, must extend to violations by one delegated authority as well as by another--by the judiciary as well as by the executive, or the legislature.” Virginia Assembly Report 1800, James Madison.
If a nation can't define its boundaries, who comes in and on what terms, then it can't sustain itself culturally, financially, politically, morally and with security. It's not a nation.- G. Miller

"A lawyer is a person who knows the law" (Black’s Law Dictionary & other.) "It is said that all persons are presumed to know the law, meaning that ignorance of the Law excuses no one." (16 AM JUR 2D Sec. 178, 256.) Therefore all persons are presumed to be Lawyers.- Randy Due (illegally klidnapped by FBI and detained)
A federal government which does not derive its lawful and limited authority from the Constitution of the United States is by definition an occupation government and criminal regime. It’s authority is null and void and no one is bound by any rule of law to obey it. --Donald L. Cline
When Party Loyalty Demands You Support a Creep, It's Time to Walk Away-- Jim Geraghty
Everybody is still talking about the other baby, the royal baby. In fact, I saw that President Obama released a statement congratulating Prince William and Kate Middleton on the birth of their son. Then he said, “And whatever you do — hang on to that birth certificate.” - Jimmy Fallon

"There are 27 amendments in the Constitution but only one says 'shall not be infringed,'" Steve Toth said. "The Second Amendment is the amendment that keeps the people free."
“The States then being the parties to the constitutional compact, and in their sovereign capacity, it follows of necessity, that there can be no tribunal above their authority, to decide in the last resort, whether the compact made by them be violated; and consequently that as the parties to it, they must themselves decide in the last resort, such questions as may be of sufficient magnitude to require their interposition.” – James Madison
"When you disarm the people, you commence to offend them and show that you distrust them either through cowardice or lack of confidence, and both of these opinions generate hatred." - Niccolo Machiavelli
“We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” - "Obama", 2008
"A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one again."
This country does not need to have a conversation about how many bullets should go in a clip. It does need to have a conversation about how many parents should go in a family. It needs to talk about the ghettos of Obamerica and have a serious conversation about broken families and generational dependency. It needs to have a conversation about funneling new immigrants from broken parts of the world into areas already suffering from high levels of unemployment and street violence.- Daniel Greenfield

Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty." -- Thomas Jefferson
“Disarmament of the populace is always the first step to depriving them of their civil rights and human rights…many African-Americans and women are actively assaulting the very document that first secured their own freedom... if you do not believe in the Bill of Rights, then you are not, at heart, an American.” – Mike Adams
Only in America could liberals talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000 a plate campaign fund raising event.
We need to demythologize guns before the liberal attempt to create a totemic fear of them succeeds. If the gun control mentality promoting fear of guns themselves becomes our national mentality, we would turn the clock back to the days when a warrior class ruled over the people because only they had the confidence and expertise to deploy the means of defense and coercion. The gun control agenda will turn us into a people too timid to defend themselves from our would-be masters. – Alan Keyes
So now that there is a new tragedy the president wants to have a “national conversation on guns”. Here’s the thing. Until this national conversation is willing to entertain allowing teachers to carry concealed weapons, then it isn’t a conversation at all, it is a lecture. – Larry Correia'

Lets see if I have this straight...Former President Bill Clinton ... who lied to his own wife... was convicted of perjury ... disbarred from practicing law in his home state... an admitted philanderer ... who "Never had sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky" ... Impeached by the US House of Representatives ... is giving testimonials for Barrack Obama's character and intentions!!!??? Is this a great country or what!?
"Thanking Obama for killing Bin Laden is like going into McDonalds and thanking Ronald McDonald for the hamburger. It's the guy cooking the burger that should get the credit, not the clown."

How can we stand up to someone that creates a 100 dollar Federal Reserve (FR) note for 2 cents and uses the face value of the note of 100 dollars to buy a 100 dollar U.S. Security where the government has to pay them 4% in interest at the end of the year? A yearly cost of 4 FR notes where it only cost the FR 2 cents to print.
This is the biggest Conspiracy you may ever encounter and this started sometime around 1913. Yes, your parents and their parents had so much of their time stolen from them at a cost of 2 pennies. And the National Debt is one big fraud. And this is not just in the United States but the whole world.- Steven Pattison

"WE own this country, and when someone doesn't do the job "we have to let them go."- Clint Eastwood at RNC
"If you've got a business -- you didn't build that, somebody else made that happen”- Barack Hussein Obama Soetoro
“Capital must protect itself in every possible way, both by combination and legislation. Debts must be collected, mortgages foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through the process of law, the common people lose their homes, they will become more docile and more easily governed through the strong arm of government applied by a central power of wealth under leading financiers. These truths are well known among our principal men who are now engaged in forming an imperialism to govern the world. By dividing the voter through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting for questions of no importance. It is thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves that which has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished.”
- President American Bankers Association, 1924
"I think it is wonderful that Eric holder is making sure that Mexicans' second amendment rights are preserved!" - Bobby Florenz
“My father was a hardcore conservative and a straight line Republican voter before he died. Now he votes Democrat.” (-Unknown)
Today, President Obama is calling for the same with the Buffett Rule.' Obama is under the mistaken impression that America's symbol is the bald ego." --The Wall Street Journal's James Taranto
‘In years to come there is going to be information that will come out that Obama was not the man who made the call. He can say he did and the people who really know what happened are inside the Pentagon, are in the military and the military isn’t allowed to speak out against the commander- in-chief so his secret is safe.’—Chris Kyle, former SEAL sniper

"Sixty-one percent of debt issued by the Treasury is bought by the Federal Reserve -- which is to say the left hand of the U.S. Government is lending money to the right hand of the US Government. ... Nonetheless, in a land where every mewling babe in the American nursery is born with a debt burden of just under $200,000, the president brags that only his party is 'compassionate' to have no plan whatsoever even to attempt to do anything about this, no way, no how, not now, not ever." --columnist Mark Steyn
Isn't it amazing how every facet of Sergeant Bales life, high school, college, employment, why he left his employment, his brother’s employment, his wife’s employment, real estate holdings, a missed house payment , a missed promotion etc., is exposed within a week and the same fact finders can't find comparable info on the most powerful man in the world in three plus years ?

"The Constitution of the United States is a law for rulers and for people, equally in war and peace, and it covers with its shield of protection all classes of men, at all times and under all circumstances.
