With all the huh-bub surrounding the Dow breaking its old record set immediately before the last collapse, I haven;t heard one fact pointed out: that in inflation-adjusted terms, it has to get to over 15,500 to beat the 12% cumulative inflation we’ve seen since October 2007. In inflation-adjusted (“2007 real”) dollars, the Dow is currently somewhere around 13,000.
When you take into account the pumping effect of Bernanke stuffing funny money into certain investors’ hands, the apparent value of the Dow is even less.

The United States is falling to a saturation offense decades in the making.  Like the scene in the movie Aliens where the motion tracker says the aliens are so close that they are in the same room with our heroes, we can’t quite figure out where the enemy is, but we know they’re all over us.  In the movie, our heroes needed to expand their thinking from two to three dimensions; the aliens were in the overhead.  For our own purposes we need to look not at individuals and elections, but at the large picture.  Our house is being eaten by termites, and no matter how many individual bugs we squash, it does nothing to help remove the infestation.

Those Americans who most keenly feel and honor their … Continue reading →

Greetings.  I am no longer a Republican.  I am certainly not a Democrat.  Neither am I a member or supporter of the Libertarian party or the Constitution Party.  I support no candidate and I oppose no candidate.  I am no longer a partisan political supporter of anybody.   If I mention names, it is only is far as they carry ideology in support of or in hazard to our Constitution.  I make my own decisions.  I know how to read the Constitution, I know how to think, and I know what duties are laid before me.   I support and defend the Constitution, and this means that I necessarily oppose those who endanger it.

The United States is currently in a Constitutional crisis, which succinctly has the following … Continue reading →

The Short Version:

They are already coming for our guns.  Nevermind the fact that nobody is busting down doors.  This is the phase of a progressive operation where the farthest left beseeches the leadership to do something clearly unconstitutional.  Then the leadership strikes a “moderate” note halfway between what is constitutional and what is clearly unconstitutional.  This has the effect of eliciting a reasonable but easily lampooned reaction from the right, while soothing the tiny minds of the moderate middle, so that the leader’s actions look tame.

In fact, the media assault on our second amendment rights is part of the plan, and no matter what you hear on the news or see in a magazine, the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.  No … Continue reading →

This is a re-post from my old blog based on a newspaper article from mid-2005.

Of course the real news behind this is not a new strain of AIDS, but the fact that somewhere, someone in the mainstream media actually let a story about promiscuity, homosexuality, drug abuse, and AIDS get past the filters of Political Correctness. I presume one more newspaper editor has been added to the pool of available talent–unemployed.
In the Washington Times article, the two patients are referred to as CTO1 and CTO2. CTO1 has been determined to be “Patient Zero” for the new strain of AIDS.

This post is a “wedge”. You are now viewing the pointy end; more and more will be driven in as I have the opportunity. Please do check back from time to time.

REGIME/ACTION
IRAQ–Taken down by US military action. Taking longer than hoped for to stabilize.
IRAN–To be taken down by Iranian Middle Class. Ahmadinejad is helping this cause. Next “Big Thing” from Iran (after the Islamic Bomb) will be Persian Racial-Nationalism. Just because they are an Islamic Republic, they do not have to like Arabs. And they don’t…. more to come–work calls.

UPDATE: Toothless Europe may recommend referring IRAN to the UNSC. Sorry, but the time for that was years ago.

SYRIA–Soon to be taken down by the UN! This is amazing. Perhaps the longest-lasting effect … Continue reading →

A look at Google’s Motivation for the Week

Principle

Evil

Good

Profit

Gain

Filter Chinese Google

Resist U.S. Subpoena

Loss

NOTE THAT the only shred of defense Google can muster is its argument that it is protecting user’s privacy by refusing to comply with the subpoena from the U.S. Government. When we take into account the fact that this is total horseshit, then this item slides left, over into the Gain Profit, Evil Principle square. SO much for their corporate motto. Perhaps we … Continue reading →

The Iowa City Press-Citizen (hat tip:LGF:zee) carries this story about the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers leasing land to the “Muslim Youth Camps of America”.

Under the lease, the more than 114 acres of federal land can be used intermittently by non-profit groups during the non-camping season with a total of about 1,500 people a year.
Lynne Kinney, who lives across from the camp site, said the scaled-back plan will make the Muslim youth camp much more like the Girl Scouts’ Camp Daybreak used to be. The Girl Scouts used the area until a 1990 fire destroyed their Camp Daybreak lodge.

This is the same Federal Government that can’t have anything to do with the Boy Scouts of America because somewhere, somehow, they might be a little religious.
