In my column this past September, I reported on the effort by the feds to silence Bill Benson and continue persecuting this man because he holds a truth so dangerous to the banking cartel, they will go to any length to shut him up. If you are unfamiliar with this case, please click here for background. Why do I refer to this IRS persecution as a threat to the banking cartel? In 1913, a thoroughly corrupted and largely ignorant Congress passed the unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act. Charles A Lindberg, Sr., (elected to Congress 1909-1916.) said at the time: "This Act...

January 22, 2006 -- Brazen baseball wife Anna Benson blasted the Mets last night for tossing her pitcher hubby a curve via a trade to Baltimore. The buxom Benson feels she was "misled" by management — which insists she's not why Kris was shipped south. "If he was traded because of any potential talks with . . . Playboy or anything like this, that's a dirty, nasty, rotten trick — and I think that's really freedom-of-speech infringement," she charged.

Terry Bradshaw wants to buy Saints SHREVEPORT - Woodlawn High, Louisiana Tech and Pittsburgh Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw is interested in putting together an ownership group to buy the New Orleans Saints to keep the team in Louisiana. "I'm supporting the citizens of Louisiana who don't deserve to lose the Saints because of a hurricane," Bradshaw said Wednesday in Shreveport. The former quarterback, here to be inducted into the Walk of Stars and witness the installation of the first sign marking the new "Terry Bradshaw Passway" on Inner Loop 3132, said he has used his on-air spot with Fox NFL...

The Saints say they won’t comment and the NFL says the incident where owner Tom Benson lunged at an Eyewitness News camera, yanked it down and engaged in a vulgar shouting match with a fan is much ado about nothing much. Saints spokesman Greg Bensel said they would not comment on the incident and that stance wouldn’t change. The NFL said they will not fine Benson. “It was nothing more than pushing a camera aside,” said NFL spokesman Greg Aiello. “It appears to be not much more than a brief heated exchange. It was a tough day for the Saints...

NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Mayor Ray Nagin disparaged Saints owner Tom Benson on Wednesday for working with San Antonio officials to permanently keep the NFL team in Texas. The mayor's comments came after the departures of two top Saints executives who were supportive of keeping the Saints in Louisiana. Nagin is concerned that San Antonio officials said publicly that Benson is working with them to relocate the franchise to Texas. "We want our Saints, we may not want the owner back," Nagin said while attending the reopening of Cafe Du Monde in the French Quarter. "I'm ready to go to...

<p>LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -- Upset and frustrated that running back Cedric Benson is still a holdout and the only first-round draft pick without a contract agreement, the Chicago Bears have made their final offer to the No. 4 pick.</p>

Governor Craig Benson conducted a ceremonial signing of two important bills that the New Hampshire legislature passed by large margins. The ceremony was attended by a large number of state legislators, including the sponsors of the bills, senior representatives of the New Hampshire Wildlife Federation and the New Hampshire Sportsmen's Political Action League, New Hampshire-based manufacturers Ruger and SIGarms, the owner of Riley’s Sport Shop, the president of Savage Arms, the state coordinator of Second Amendment Sisters, and the president and several of the directors of Gun Owners of New Hampshire, the state NRA affiliate. HB 811 makes New Hampshire...

One person died and at least 15 others were seriously injured Saturday when a pickup truck loaded with illegal entrants crashed while trying to evade police on U.S. 191 south of Willcox. About 6 p.m., a Department of Public Safety officer on patrol saw the Ford F250 northbound on the highway near Sunsites, about 25 miles south of Willcox. The officer checked the vehicle's license plate, which confirmed the truck was stolen, said Officer Frank Valenzuela, a DPS spokesman in Phoenix. The officer tried stopping the truck, which then fled. About the same time the officer called in a pursuit...

December 1, 2004 -- ANNA Benson, the former model and stripper who is married to Mets pitcher Kris Benson, vowed yesterday that if she ever catches her husband cheating, she'll have sex with all his teammates. "If I'm lining them up," Anna said, "I'll [also] circle into other teams. Whatever team he's playing, I will s- - -w all them too."

Rally to support Governor Benson Posted on another web forum (I've taken out some of the data that was not public): MONDAY, Oct 18th, is the WMUR Channel 9/Union Leader gubernatorial debate between Gov. Craig Benson and Democrat John Lynch. The debate starts at 7 pm, but the Benson campaign is launching a rally outside the station at 4 pm and they ask for our assistance in getting as many supporters to this rally as possible. The Lynch Mob is having a rally as well, and they are bussing in paid protesters from out of state. The debate location is...

G.K. Chesterton once said the most amazing, exciting thing that can happen with a philosophy is to have someone actually step up and put it into action, to just DO it. Though all politicians must be watched closely, and all have their flaws...I'm generally happy with Benson. This is because he has taken a proven successful philosophy (limited government) and DONE it. I think a lot about the way virtually all governors and presidents promise to cut spending but never do. An executive brancher who actually practices limited government, rather than just preaching it, is a rare treasure. And this...

They say they're well-prepared for run at Benson Democratic gubernatorial candidates Phil McLaughlin and Peter Burling campaigned together for the second time last night, telling the Manchester City Democrats that their respective leadership experiences make them qualified to challenge Republican Gov. Craig Benson. "Phil and I are starting the grand tour," said Burling, a state representative from Cornish and the minority leader in the House. "He and I will be like wing mates for the next few months, visiting every hamlet in New Hampshire." The Democrats running for governor, however, are sauntering out of the gate, not sprinting. Both McLaughlin,...

Got this from the Concord Monitor... Just six months after picking New Hampshire as the "Free State," and years before any of them are even required to move....members of the Free State Project have attained an overwhelming majority on one of the governor's inefficiency committees. http://freestateproject.org/news/media_archive/0198.jsp The FSP is a nationwide movement aimed at persuading 20,000 liberty lovers to move to New Hampshire, reinforce the feisty freedom movement there and reduce the size of government by two thirds.

CONCORD – The New Hampshire Democratic Party unleashed a 60-second radio ad Tuesday, charging Gov. Craig Benson with engaging in poor ethical practices that could get the state “possibly indicted.’’ Democratic Party Chairwoman Kathy Sullivan said it’s proper for the party to focus upon Benson’s integrity, even though no Democrat has emerged to oppose his re-election. “We work with what we have, and the Craig Benson administration has shown that ethical standards are not what they should be,’’ she said. “I think this is going to be a major part of the campaign that the Democratic Party plans on raising.’’...

Close to three-quarters of adults in New Hampshire say they approve of Governor Craig Benson's veto of the state budget according to the latest New Hampshire Poll. Overall, 72% of adults in the state say they favor the budget veto, 18% oppose the budget veto, and 10% are undecided. These results are based on 600 completed telephone interviews among a statewide random sample of adults in New Hampshire conducted June 26, 2003. Of the 600 interviews, 450 were among registered voters (170 Republicans, 120 Democrats, and 160 undeclared voters). The theoretical margin of error for the total sample is plus...

Westcott's Peace-Movement No true Christian loves war. A Bible believer takes the premillenial view and realizes that war is caused by the sinful nature of mankind-James 4:1. He understands that this will all be changed at Christ's return-Philippians 3:21.

WOW! So, New Hampshire is changing, huh? Republicans and conservatives are losing steam. Independents and moderates are dominant. New Hampshire’s different now, right? Yeah, right . . . It did look that way when John McCain defeated George W. Bush in the 2000 Presidential primary, and when Jeanne Shaheen won three terms as governor over conservatives. Well, so much for that idea. And so much for Shaheen and that whole “independent moderate” thing. This GOP victory was so complete and so unexpected that it surprised Democrats, neutral political observers (including this one) and even some partisan Republicans, including a U.S....
