We're all idiots who can't comeup with an original thought!

Well,now that you mention it,yeah. After all,you still believe Ken Starr was on the up and up.That doesn't leave much mystery about how you could be such a blind Ali Bubba supporter.

Bush's Ashcroft seems clearly better on the Second Amendment than we'd get with a Gore nominee.

The "No-Justice Dept" under Janet Ashcroft has a OFFICIAL WRITTEN POSITION that "although the 2nd Amendment guarantees the individual the right to own guns,the federal government still reserves the right to place reasonable restrictions on that right". In other words,"I did NOT have sex with that woman,Monica Lewinsky". If they can regulate it,with "reasonable restrictions" and THEY are the ones who gets to define what "reasonable" is,the individual right is null and void.

I think that he's a communist instead. The younger bush is also a communist.

Nah,they are actually both "One-Worlder Fascists".They see the ideal system is one that is ran like a corporation,so they want to see America no longer be a sovereign nation. The Bush family see themselves in the role of the ruling class,and that's why Ali Bubba refuses to close the borders or crack down on illegal aliens. There is another Jorge Bush waiting in the background to run for president,Jeb's half-Mexican son. The Bush family needs and wants those Mexican votes in order to insure he gets elected. Once he does,look for the move to be made to unite Mexico,Canada,and the US into one nation/economic block. When you create a new nation,you need a new Constitution.

BTW,communism and fascism are identical systems from the point of view of the people at the bottom. Both are totalarian police states. It's only at the top that the differences become apparant. The communist leadership are required to hide their personal wealth,where the fascist leadership is allowed to flaunt theirs. Both are throwbacks to the old feudal systems where you have a nobility and a peasant class. This is why I coined the term "Corporate Communism" for the new system Blair,Clinton,and Bush push. Corporate wealth and benefits for those at the top,and instead of citizens you have "employees". Just a modern word for "serf".

I just saw a portion of the "threating" press-conference and am about ready to ask President Bush to replace the UNION led police and firefighters with National Guard.

There ya go! Maybe we could give them uniforms with knee high boots and leather coats? Maybe even a nifty new name to go along with them being drafted into Ali Bubba's new "Office of Reich Security"? How about "Gestapo"? I know it has been used before,but it's hard to beat the "classics".

At any rate we can't have all these people running around making decisions on their own about what they can or can not join,can we? Dat be un-Murikan!

There are 54 links in his original thread ... and not one original Uncle Bill generated word or comment.

So,what is your point? Do you want him to reference news stories,press releases,and government documents,or do you want him to make things up? He doesn't HAVE to say a word when his links can do all his talking for him.

Since most of us "aren't very bright" turn on your lights and enlighten us.

Calling YOU "not very bright" would be bragging on you if you are stupid enough to think I am a Bubba-1 supporter. In fact,"Stupid" would be a status you aspire to obtain.

I would rather spend my doing doing something easier than trying to enlighten you. Teaching mules how to tap dance comes to mind as one example.

At least the National Guard would not threaten the security of our nation because there are not enought "FEDERAL FIREFIGHTERS and FEDERAL POLICE". This is exactly what was said by some firefighter.

I look forward to Uncle Bills bold maneuver, our first Free Republic Filibuster tomorrow: One thread, One man, Links to Every Page on the World Wide Web. All 48 million of them. It's going to be bigger than the Houston 500. I just hope he doesn't order the fluffers from that service that advertises that "Most of our girls have some of their teeth."

Gimme a break sir. If you opened and read every link at the top of this page, we'd peek into your office early March and find your skeletal remains at the keyboard. And you didn't get to the 39th link, that's the "Bush Baked Beans" scandal. You've led a virtuous full life, Pete, I'm not going to call your 67% completion rate here a human travesty.

There is a time when the word "overkill" comes to mind.

well, I do agree with you that obviously the Bush's are very big for the New World Order, they even say so. And the NWO is just as you said. I was only saying that if you look at what the elder bush did to the economy when he was pres the only way you can make sense of it is that he seems to have wanted to do bad to the economy. Maybe that's part of the NWO plan to humble america. The younger bush seems to be doing the same IMO. His massive spending growth on bureaucracy in washington while imposing draconian cuts in medicaire doesn't make sense. I don't trust the Bush'. They're anti-american in their behavior.

The way we're trading with CHina is suicidal for our nation. I was watching recently on cspan. They had a panel of people speaking about the massive trade deficit. One economist was saying exactly what I've been saying here. That it is shocking and unbelievable and incredible that the chinese currency does not float. She said it is allowed to float within a range, but is not really free, that it is pegged very much artificially low. And we're trading with them on this scale. This amounts to actual sabotage of the american economy. Bush 1 started these trade terms. Clinton continued them. Bush 2 is also continuing them. But in the meantime we have this 5% of gdp trade deficit financed by borrowing. We're being set up for disaster it seems or our leaders are the stupidest people in the world.

THe old paradigm of conflict between liberals and conservatives or between democrats and republicans is completely outdated and suicidal for our people to engage in today. The new paradigm is anti new world order or pro-new world order. The politicians of both parties are compromised, our media is compromised. Our people are in the dark and playing right into their hands with these petty rivalries between the dems and the repubs.

Our only chance is to vote out incumbents in congress, all of them, who support NWO policies. NWO policies include the refusal to stop illegal immigration, h1b, the stupid trade policies, the rural cleansing which bush has not reversed effectively and regulations to stop american industry from thriving in america. We re-elect 98% of our politicians when they run for re-election. We let the news media decide who we don't re-elect even. The people are completely out of the loop. So, it is just as if a communist cabal has taken over and rendered our democracy a useful idiot tool for them. But it is New World Order instead. If we re-elected 30% of our congressmen instead of 98%, then we'd have a chance.

you're right. anybody who believes that Ken Starr was on the up and up and puts him on a pedestal as we've seen, well that person is just like a peasant in ancient Rome going to a gladiator contest and finding meaning to his life there. worshoping the idols laid out before us for the sake of occupying our minds and passions.

Dittos to your concern that the feds might destroy the 2nd Amendment via "reasonable regulation" and thanks for the Justice Department quote:

"although the 2nd Amendment guarantees the individual the right to own guns,the federal government still reserves the right to place reasonable restrictions on that right".

I prefer to hope for this as a bright spot in the Bush administration, since the JD supports, at least rhetorically, the individual right to keep and bear arms.

(I see reasonable regulation as including the possession of nuclear weapons and other WMD - drawing the bright margin line, well...)

In specific defense of Ashcroft - I think he defended not keeping a national database of gun owners.

Nobody. Or at least nobody who has a snowball's chance in hell of ever being elected. The problem is we now only have one party,and it has two brances. Neither branch is going to allow anybody who would change the direction we are headed to ever get the nomination. Too many rice bowls would be overturned.

Bush-1 used to be the Ambassador to China,as well as the head of the CIA. This provided him with VERY good contacts without the heirarchy of the Chinese Communist party,and resulted in Prescott Bush being business partners with the fascists that now run China. Bush-2/Bubba-2 granted China PERMANENT "Most Favored Nation" trade status,despite their use of slave labor and police state tactics. Of course,I'm sure this is all just coincidencial. Besides,it ain't like any married man is getting a blowjob,or anything serious.

The new paradigm is anti new world order or pro-new world order.

Yup,except for the pro-NWO types are firmly in control now. They won. They are in control of both the DNC and the RNC,and they are the ones who manage the political "farm teams" that determines which politicians get to play in the big leagues,and which stay with the local teams.

The politicians of both parties are compromised,

We only have one party. It has two branches,the prime difference being which group of party insiders get the biggest split of the spoils.

That doesn't apply,since the 2nd Amendment only recogonizes the right of the INDIVIDUAL citizen to possess the weapons normally posessed by the INDIVIDUAL infantryman. "Armed" was a term than meant individual arms,NOT crew-served weapons,or TRUE weapons of mass destruction such as nukes,bio,or chemical weapons. The purpose of this was to insure the infantry militia showed up when called,already armed and ready to go. Because of expense,mobility,and the practical concern that one central rally point was needed,it was generally accepted that the milita heavy weapons such as cannons would be kept in the possession of the local authorities. These were the crew-served weapons of the day.

BTW,PLEASE note that NOTHING written above FORBIDS the possession of crew-served weapons,or even TRUE weapons of mass destruction. It just doesn't recogonize their possession as a RIGHT.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

We now find ourselves in a situation where neither party recognizes individual Rights or supports limited government.

Instead, America is being sucked down the drain of a global New World Order by willing accomplices in both parties.
