One idea is to buy any and all historical books. Garage, estate sales are a good source, then find a used book store, on all subjects.

Problem is you probably won't find a true history book any more, for those you would need an antique book dealer, if grandma has some DO NOT SELL IN THE ESTATE.

The Media blew up the Flag issue because probably Odumbasscare will be ruled unconstitutional. gay marriage hope it is ruled unconstitutional, but whatever will cause someone to get angry. this 4th of July will probably be riots in the streets!

It (obamacare) all must go...........there was never a time in the history of America that I ever knew of any so called POOR being denied health services, it was always called the ER for which we all paid.

ps: there is no such thing as Poor in America, poorer since Obama YES, but not 3rd world poor, or why do they keep coming.

"Talk radio and common sense alone are inadequate shields against relentless well-heeled propaganda onslaughts."

This is quite brilliant. I have fought the battle in classrooms for 30 years (retiring next year), and not without effect. I constantly get students write me saying they recall the lessons, are running for office, are leaders in their communities. Probably too few, but it's something.

This article offers a remarkable analysis of the radical individualization of our society. In arguing that the "old" forms of community action/leftist organizing aren't working, he DOESN'T say that the alternative is if the people turn around, the only direction they can head is back toward traditional forms of organizing---but that defeats them as well because most of that "traditional collective action" comprises churches, fraternal organizations, parades---all the stuff that works against the left.

I believe there is much merit to this idea ...

What I sense is that the effort is to get the Confederate flag made into a private or museum historic piece.

Nature Rules.

The Created Thing perched atop the courthouse steps can’t change the fact that Nature selected Sex (the genetic exchange between male and female) because Sex increases the fitness of species.

And they can’t change the fact that what reprobates have selected isn’t Sex - but the worship of mutual masturbation and themselves.

I thought the USSC always drops these bombshell opinions on the last day of their term, so they can skedaddle out of town to their tropical Island ivory towers out of earshot of those that they just crapped on.

I’m sure you know about this but I’ll mention it anyway...
In the documentary “The Civil War” by (ugh) Ken Burns, there’s a lovely comment by Shelby Foote on meeting the direct relatives (sisters?) of NBF and swinging his sword around...truly charming as well as humorous (their opinion of Lincoln)...
My bona fides as a proud reb: a close relative is named after Wade Hampton...will his statue in Columbia SC and Charleston be taken down?

I got pillaged on Twitter for suggesting that next up will be Confederate flag tatoos. Then what? I was in Kroger and noticed they had “U.S.M.C.” t-shirts. Well, how long before THAT “symbol of oppression” has to be removed? Then USMC tatoos?

"Was he talking about marriage or obamacare?"

I don't know, just caught the "we won" phrase. I was just curious to what he was referring to as I didn't catch his whole spiel while tuning into Fox...we'll have to wait and see.

I confess I'm on pins and needles.The implications of the Court's decisions this week are incalculable.

I think ObamaCare will be rule contrary to the ACA law, that subsidies are limited to state exchanges.


Wouldn’t surprise now that the GOP has telegraphed they are happy to amend Obamacare.

If the SCOTUS does as suspected they will do, the pubbies won’t have much choice about doing something. It was making rounds last few days that Scotus will rule against subsidies except in states with exchanges, but that they’ll stay implementation of the order for a year or so to give transition time. The idea is that the people who are getting subsidies are not the ones to blame because Congress screwed up.

IOW, the pubbies will have to decide how to run the exchanges for an entire year even though they’re illegal.

Obamacare ruling will come first, in my opinion, before the same sex marriage ruling which will probably be Monday.
