I’ve been bashing Republicans pretty well lately. And they deserve even more bashing.
But I’ve finally found a reason for their existence: All the Republicans in the U.S. House supported Ron Paul’s bill, H.R. 1207, to audit the evil, secretive, anti-democratic, inflationary Federal Reserve Board. It’s also got 60 Democrats supporting it, and is advancing in the Senate.
Here’s a YouTube explaining it:
Let me be the first to say it: Paul and Paul in 2012.
That is: Ron Paul and Rand Paul in 2012. Or: Paul and Paul in 12. Or: Ron Paul and Rand Paul in 12.
Ron Paul should run for president again — and his son Rand should run for vice president!
Here’s the formula:
Ron Paul + Rand Paul = Victory
For short:
Paul + Paul = Victory
It would be the greatest ticket in American history, and give Republicans their only chance to beat President Vladimir Ilich Obamov.
Ron Paul you know about. The Texas congressman was the only Republican or Democratic candidate in the 2008 election who supported restoring the U.S. Constitution, liberty, and economic common sense, such as abolishing the inflationary demon known as the Federal Reserve Board.
He warned, for years, that war, Federal Reserve inflation, and massive deficits and debt would ruin America, and the Bush Depression of the past 2 years has proved him right.
Meet Rand Paul
Randall Paul — Rand for short — is Ron’s son, and a chip of the old Ron. Rand, like his pop, is a medical doctor, meaning he has competency and experience in a field outside politics — unlike about 99% of politicians. And he holds his father’s views on the Constitution, the wars, the economy, etc.
Now, for 2010 Rand is running for U.S. Senate from Kentucky. Here are some short videos of his positions. And unlike almost every politician ever heard of, he actually believes his positions, and would do his best, in office, to implement them.
Naturally, Rand is being opposed by Kentucky’s corrupt Republican establishment, which is running a Clinton Democrat against Rand in the GOP primary!
As in 2008, rather than have a Paul come to office and start restoring the Constitution and decency to government, they’d rather have a Democrat win and maintain the corrupt existing system.
Here’s Rand Paul’s Web site. If you can, click here and send him a few campaign bucks. He’ll need them against the filthy money the Republican establishment is throwing against him in the primary — which really is your tax money flushed through the sewers of Wall Street firms and other corrupt entities as “bailouts,” then sent out to pollute our democracy.
1776 — That’s the Spirit!
However Rand does in his Senate bid in 2010, he should be on the national ballot with his father in 2012.
Paul and Paul in 2012 — it’s a ticket made in the Spirit of 1776.
Back in the fall of 1972 I was a senior in high school in Michigan. On the ballot that Nov. 7 was a state initiative to legalize abortion, Proposal B. Voters overwhelmingly rejected it. Although I was too young to vote, I campaigned for it. A similar pro-life was taken the same day in North Dakota. It seemed that democracy was working. A pro-life electorate was defending the unborn.
The next January 22, 1973 — 36 years ago today — the U.S. Supreme Court imposed its Roe v. Wade decision, overturning every state abortion law in the country. Absurdly, it even overturned the laws in states with legal abortions, such as California and New York. Roe created a new “right” to let an abortinoist trick a mother into letting him kill her baby. Life, decency, and democracy all were aborted.
Dissenting Justice Byron “Whizzer” White branded the edict “raw judicial power.” His dissent was joined by Justice Rehnquist.
The other 7 “justices” signed off onto Roe. I still remember the names of these demons: Blackmun, the dummy who wrote an opinion so incoherent even abortion backers were shocked by its foolishness; Brennan and Douglas, who put him up to it because they were known as leftist radicals and didn’t want to become the locus of criticism; Powell; Stewart; Burger, the new “conservative” Republican chief “justice”; and Black, who started his career as a Ku Kux Klan member.
“Roe” actually was Jane McCorvey, who was “forced” to have her baby before the decision came down. She later admitted that she lied about getting pregnant from a rape and recanted her involvement in the case. She also had a religions conversion and last year supported for president pro-life Rep. Ron Paul, also an obstetrician who delivered 5,000 babies.
So the case itself was based on a fraud. Yet it stands as above the Constitution. As written, the Constitution clearly allows the states to decide such matters as punishment for murder, robbery, rape, and abortion. There is no “right” to get an abortionist to cut out your child. The whole thing was made up because the court hated democracy almost as much as it hated babies.
What should have happened
After the 1973 Roe edict, the 7 pro-abort demons should have been immediately impeached by the House, removed by the Senate, tarred-and-feathered by the people, and exiled from the country. That didn’t happen. The country’s “leaders,” such as Republican President Nixon and the Democrats who controlled Congress, were not at all displeased with the ruling.
For one thing, it was a solution to the “Population Bomb” foolishness then popular, in which we were promised that there would be mass starvation in the 1970s and 1980s unless population was reduced sharply. One way to do that was to make sure populations were not born in the first place.
Of course, there was no mass starvation in the 1970s and 1980s. Rather, more and more countries embraced capitalism, which produced vast new food sources and rising standards of living. Specifically, China and India, which had suffered periodic famines and mass starvation for millennia, embraced capitalism and now are powerful capitalist countries with obesity problems.
But the “Population Bomb” damage was done. In particular, the First World — Europe, America, and Japan — saw birth rates decline sharply from abortion. Europe and Japan’s populations began dropping. America’s population is increasing still only because of immigration. The native stock’s abortions have cut births below replacement levels.
It’s now clear that legalized abortion means your country has committed suicide.
Democrats once were pro-life
It’s not remembered much now, but Democrats once were the pro-life party. They base was working-class, unionized “ethnics” (mostly Catholics) in the North, evangelical and fundamentalist Protestants in the South, and blacks in most places — each a part of the strong Democratic coalition FDR assembled in 1932, and each a strongly pro-life group. But in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Democratic Party was taken over by leftists, such as George McGovern, who were pro-aborts. They chased the active pro-lifers out of their party.
Republicans also pro-aborts
The active pro-lifers ended up in the Republican Party. Until then, the rich folks who ran the party, such as the Rockefellers, were pro-aborts. But they needed the pro-lifers to add to their numbers so they could start winning elections. So the pro-lifers were welcomed and were promised that abortion soon would be ended. They were told that Republican presidents would appoint pro-life justices.
So here we are, 36 years after Roe. During those years, Democrats ran the White House just 12 years, or 1/3 of the time. Republicans ran the White House 24 years, or 2/3 of the time. Democrats, sure enough, appointed pro-abort “justices,” two of them. Republicans, as they promised, appointed pro-life justices, 4 of them. But Republicans also appointed 4 pro-abort “justices.”
The current court is 5 pro-aborts (3 Republicans, 2 Democrats) and 4 pro-lifers (all 4 Republicans).
So, we never made it to a majority of pro-lifers. For 36 years, Republicans totally betrayed the pro-life movement. They led us along with promises that, if we just supported them one more time, they would appoint that elusive 5th pro-life justice. It all was a con. So Republicans are more responsible for abortion remaining legal than Democrats, who at least are implementing their promises.
Obama: President Abortion
Now Obama is president and will appoint 2-3 new justices, all of whom will be pro-aborts. If he gets a second term, there will be more.
That means that abortion is about as permanant a public policy as you can get.
Obama’s administration is “abortocratic,” one writer calls it. He also promised Planned Parenthood (really, Murderhood) that he would sign the misnamed “Freedom of Choice Act.” According to one analysis:
F.O.C.A. will assist adult males in keeping their rape of our minor daughters hidden. It will force faith-based hospitals and health care professionals to provide abortions, it will fund organizations that perform and promote abortion to our children, it will force employer health insurance plans to cover abortion. Here’s the worst. F.O.C.A. will make partial-birth abortion legal again (killing a full term baby).
America aborted
Since 1973, 50 million American babies have been aborted. About 40% have been black, even though blacks are 12% of the population. So the black abortion rate is almost 4 times that of everybody else. It means 20 million dead black babies. Isn’t Obama supposed to be in favor of civil rights for blacks?
Also, in California, more than half of abortions are of Latino babies.
In effect, we have mostly white abortionists profiting off the murders of blacks and Latinos. The Ku Klux Klan and the National Socialist German Workers’ Party couldn’t have come up with a more racist policy.
I was a hopeful teenager back in 1973 — hopeful that we could overturn Roe. Now at 53 that hope long has gone, the victim of numerous Republican betrayals.
In the intervening 36 years, America has changed so much that it hardly is itself anymore. Abortion aborted America. What survives is something horrible and difficult to live in. It’s all the more painful if you love America greatly, as I do. It’s like seeing your wife kidnapped into a white slave ring and being unable to do anything about it.
Well, we can pray. That’s all that’s left.
Typically, an Associated Press poll of news editors and directors missed the real top story of 2008. No wonder print media are going under.
AP’s top story: Barack Obama’s election. But his “Change you can believe in” is unbelievable. He’s keeping Bush’s secretary of defense, Robert Gates, and Hillary will be secretary of state. Some “change.”
As to his being the first black president, that’s nice. But it’s far less relevant than what he will do — and what he will do is maintain the rancid status quo.
Other top stories are things we’ve seen before: wars, a new Depression, the Olympics, terrorism, a woman nominated for vice president (Ferraro was the first by a major party in 1984).
Ho-hum.
The Revolution
The real top news story mostly was neglected by the dying Old Media, but not only reported on, but caused by the burgeoning New Media: the Ron Paul Revolution. And it really was a revolution — a completely new development that will affect all of us, in this case for the good.
Ron Paul inspired millions of Americans with his vision of liberty and a return to the principles of our Founding Fathers, especially the U.S. Constitution. He fired up young folks, who used the Internet to raise record amounts of money for his campaign, while putting up countless blogs backing him.
His brilliant and principled defense of liberty completely overshadowed the shallow and almost identical “platforms” of Obama, Hillary, McCain, Romney, and the rest of the dull retreads.
True, he didn’t do so hot with the voters. But late in the campaign, when he was running mano-a-mano against McCain, he was getting around 22% — and rising. If the campaign had lasted a couple of months longer, Paul might have won the GOP nomination. If so, he would have cruised to victory over Obama, the fake “reformer” who’s really just a cog in the corrupt Chicago political machine.
Back to the Founders
Ron Paul’s platform is simple, profound — and brilliant: just go back to what the Founding Fathers intended for America:
* Dismantle the fascist superstate imposed in recent decades. Reduce the central (“federal”) government by 95% or more.
* End the imperialist interventions around the world, where American troops are in 130 countries and wars are being waged — and lost — in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Syrian, and Colombia. These wars have bankrupted us.
* Return to George Washington’s admonition:
It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world.
The Bush-Clinton-Bush Obama of hyperinterventionism has nothing in common with Washington and the best in America, and everything in common with Napoleon, Mussolini, and Trotsky.
* Repeal the income tax, Socialist Security tax, and other robberies of the American people.
* Abolish the unconstitutional Federal Reserve Board, the engine of inflation and Depression.
Nostradamus 2008
Ron Paul also was prescient in warning, for years, that Bush’s Iraq War, being paid for with the Bush-Greenspan-Bernanke inflation and massive deficits and debt, would bring about an economic collapse. Not many listened to him. But the collapse hit hard in September, and shows no signs of improving.
He’s also right in opposing the Bush-Obama-Bernanke socialist “bailouts” of their Wall Street cronies and the auto companies. All this will only delay the economic recovery while making the Depression even worse.
When are people going to listen to him?
Real hope
Obama blabs about the “Audacity of Hope,” and got rich off his autobiography of the same name — even as he disowned his close friendship with the Rev. Wright, who coined the phrase.
But Obama’s philosophy is one of despair: that Americans are a weak, incompetent people who cannot even walk across the street without a massive government program to help them. Despair also is shown in his refusal to reverse the disastrous, aggressive, and un-American wars of Bush that have destroyed our country.
Real hope comes from Ron Paul and his movement. It’s the first major political movement since Grover Cleveland was president more than 100 years ago that wants to completely follow the U.S. Constitution.
The Goldwater movement of 1964 was diverted by the whole Cold War dynamic. It wanted to abolish the welfare state at home while building up America’s stance against the murderous Soviet Union. (What we got was the worst of all worlds: Lyndon Johnson, who imposed socialism at home while escalating the Vietnam War against Hanoi’s socialist regime. Basically, LBJ’s philosophy was: My socialism good, Ho Chi Min’s socialism bad, so I’ll kill 2 million Viets.)
Ronald Reagan won in 1981 and proclaimed, in his First Inaugural Address, “Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem” — then increased the budget of the problem by 90% in 8 years. He did cut taxes (later repealing about 2/3 of his cuts) and wound down the Cold War without getting us all killed. But he also perpetrated, among other statist outrages, the “War” on drugs that has destroyed so many of our liberties guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.
Ron Paul’s Revolution is different because there’s no dilution of his principles. If he ever becomes president — let’s hope he runs again in 2012 — he actually would do his best to restore our liberties.
As 2009 begins, the Ron Paul Revolution is a light in the darkness of the Bush-Greenspan-Neocon Depression that rapidly is descending on us, and the Bush repression that continues.
That’s real hope, from a real hero.
Pretty soon, Time magazine (is it still in print?) will be naming its “Person of the Year,” formerly, in pre-P.C. language times, Man of the Year. They almost always get it wrong.
No doubt this year it’ll be Obama. But, as we’re now seeing even more clearly with his cabinet appointments, he’s just another Establishment hack who does what the Establishment tells him.
The real Man of the Year is Ron Paul, for reminding the country — and the world — about the importance of freedom. Everybody talks about freedom, but every other candidate this year, Donkey or Elephant, wanted much more government and much less freedom.
Only Ron Paul wanted to dissolve most of the central government and return American to the limited-government roots of our Founding Fathers.
Young people, especially, responded to his message, and flocked to his campaign. Unfortunately, the GOP Establishment stuck us with old, crazy, bipartisan, loser John McCain. I still wrote in Ron Paul’s name in the November election.
Paul also was the only candidate who warned that the Iraq War was bankrupting the country, and that the inflation and debt used to pay for the war would bring economic ruin. Like Cassandra, he was right, but nobody listened to him. The economic crash began in earnest in mid-September, just as John McCain was enjoying his only bounce to the top of the polls, after he appointed Palin his V.P. nominee.
After that, McCain crashed and burned.
Now we’re stuck with Obama, whose immersion in the corrupt Chicago political machine only now is being examined by the MSNM (MainStream Neocon Media).
Ron Paul would have saved us.
Instead, we’re just going to suffer badly.
When the Georgia-Russia War broke out more than 2 months ago, I immediately wrote that Georgia provoked it by invading South Ossetia, a breakaway country. After that, I wrote several more blogs, keeping my constant readers informed about what really was happening.
But the Bush administration, McCain, and Obama perpetrated the lie that Russia first invaded Georgia. The major media held that as well.
Now, the eyewitness accounts of impartial Western observes have proved that Georgia — or rather, its U.S.-backed government — began the war by invading South Ossetia and indiscriminately shooting up the place.
The Independent just ran a summary of the recent findings. The conclusion:
But surely it does matter, crucially, how this conflict began. It matters legally and morally. And it is bound, rightly so, to affect how we view the two countries concerned. Yet the general fuzziness of official US and British accounts left the impression that Russia was the guilty party, and Georgia a brave little democracy that big bad Russia wanted to snuff out. Not only did this version gain almost instantaneous acceptance, but it was almost impossible for Russia to contest, confirming as it did every existing negative stereotype.
What has now transpired, however, is that the US and Britain had no excuse for not knowing how the war began. They were briefed by the OSCE monitors at a very early stage, and those monitors included two highly experienced former British Army officers.
In one of the debates this year, both Obama and McCain attacked Russia for invading Georgia. Obama said:
Well, I think that, given what’s happened over the last several weeks and months, our entire Russian approach has to be evaluated, because a resurgent and very aggressive Russia is a threat to the peace and stability of the region.
Their actions in Georgia were unacceptable. They were unwarranted. And at this point, it is absolutely critical for the next president to make clear that we have to follow through on our six-party — or the six-point cease-fire. They have to remove themselves from South Ossetia and Abkhazia.
But as I noted on this blog 2 months ago, as the war was going on, it was Georgia that invaded South Ossetia, provoking the Russian invasion. A new report in the NY Times confirms that:
TBILISI, Georgia — Newly available accounts by independent military observers of the beginning of the war between Georgia and Russia this summer call into question the longstanding Georgian assertion that it was acting defensively against separatist and Russian aggression.
Instead, the accounts suggest that Georgia’s inexperienced military attacked the isolated separatist capital of Tskhinvali on Aug. 7 with indiscriminate artillery and rocket fire, exposing civilians, Russian peacekeepers and unarmed monitors to harm.
The accounts are neither fully conclusive nor broad enough to settle the many lingering disputes over blame in a war that hardened relations between the Kremlin and the West. But they raise questions about the accuracy and honesty of Georgia’s insistence that its shelling of Tskhinvali, the capital of the breakaway region of South Ossetia, was a precise operation. Georgia has variously defended the shelling as necessary to stop heavy Ossetian shelling of Georgian villages, bring order to the region or counter a Russian invasion.
President Mikheil Saakashvili of Georgia has characterized the attack as a precise and defensive act. But according to observations of the monitors, documented Aug. 7 and Aug. 8, Georgian artillery rounds and rockets were falling throughout the city at intervals of 15 to 20 seconds between explosions, and within the first hour of the bombardment at least 48 rounds landed in a civilian area. The monitors have also said they were unable to verify that ethnic Georgian villages were under heavy bombardment that evening, calling to question one of Mr. Saakashvili’s main justifications for the attack.
If you read my blog 2 months ago, you knew all that, because I quoted and linked sources who were there and reported on what really was happening.
This is just another reason for the USA to pull our “advisers” out of Georgia and exit that part of the world — and the rest of the world, for that matter. Let’s bring all our troops home and mind our own business.
Or at least, President Obama should be more sensible, and more sentient about what’s really going on in the world, than outgoing (hooray!) President Bush
One thing I’m hoping for tonight is a replay of my favorite election, the 2000 one, which was so close it wasn’t decided for weeks. Democrats still think it was rigged by Republicans. Bush eventually beat….can’t remember his name.
Bush’s early months as president were launched under a cloud of illegitimacy. Then 9/11 happened and he coronated himself All-Powerful Galactic High Lord of All Time and Space.
Then he lost the Iraq War, the Afghan War, the Pakistan War, the Somalia War, the Georgia War, and just last month, the Syria War. And his wars blew out the economy. He’ll be leaving town to well-deserved jeers.
In my previous blog, I predicted a 52-47 Obama victory, which would be declared early. But Obama has inspired in me the audicity to hope for a night of chaos.
Here goes. My prediction: Obama 52%, McCain 47%.
Electoral college: Obama 364, McCain 174
Ohio, Colorado, New Mexico, Virginia, NorCarolina, Florida, Missouri, and Nevada to Obama. Indiana to McCain.
California’s Proposition 4 (parental right to notification before a minor daughter’s abortion): Loses 51%-49%. Californians now are too brainwashed against life.
California’s Proposition 8 (reverses absurd California Supreme Court edict mandating same-sex “marriage”): Loses 52%-48%. Attorney General Jerry “Gov. Moonbeam” Brown rigged the election by wording the proposition against itself. Californians put up with such Soviet tactics because they’re brainwashed. See the original “Manchurian Candidate” for how it’s done.
Government increasingly runs more and more parts of our lives. Yet it can’t competently do its most important job, run an election — America’s version of what Pareto called “the circulation of the elites.” The same people always end up as the top oppressors. But the elites are supposed to circle out the most incompetent and replace them with the slightly less incompetent, thus not getting the rest of us too upset — at least not until the whole outhouse collapses, as it may be doing now.
The British Daily Mail reports:
The American presidential election could descend into electoral chaos on Tuesday as unprecedented numbers of voters turn out to cast their ballot in a system that is largely untested.
The U.S. has an electoral system that is not organised, designed or funded to cope with ‘anywhere near a 100 per cent turnout’, a director of a leading independent electoral reform group has said.
As an estimated 130million Americans head to the polls, Doug Chapin, director of The Pew Charitable Trust’s Electionline.org, said voter turnout will ‘dwarf’ all other problems in this year’s presidential election.
Why so many people are voting, I don’t know. I don’t even know why I’m voting. The two parties and candidates are virtually identical in their policies, differing only slightly in which foreigners will be bombed and which domestic groups spied on or taxed more. But people have their delusions that voting for McBama or O’Cain will change anything, just as I have my delusion that writing in Ron Paul’s name will mean anything.
