  • When Money Dies: The Nightmare of the Weimar Collapse

    F. Paul Wilson wrote a terrific short story called “Aryans and Absinthe” that follows a couple of men profiteering in the advancing inflation.

    He’s a Libertarian with some terrific fiction literature geared toward freedom, especially the LaNague Federation series. My favs though are the Repairman Jack books.

    I have heard from a local candidate with insider pollsters in Dallas that Medina may be legitimately polling around 15 to 17% at this time.

    Watch for her numbers after the Debates tomorrow night!

    I was at the Ft Worth event. Took 3 and a half hours to get there and again back.

    It was worth every minute!

    I have been asked to keep the focus of the gathering on waste and taxation but I am absolutely in agreement that something must be done. I called a French Revolution before Glenn Beck. A lot of Texans I talk to just want to secede. I want to see our autonomy restored and I believe for the first time since the Constitution was ratified, ordinary people in the middle are taking notice that we are no longer free. The time is ripe for a Constitutional Amendment. All it would need to do is overturn Amendment 16 and clarify that the General Welfare only encompasses the specifically enumerated duties in the Articles of the document.

    We can do this and I am sick of Republicans telling me ‘its too big’. F**k that. They sound like the puling wimps who whined that we might be worse off without British rule. This is the most powerful quote for our times and it graces the homepage of our Tea Party site:

    If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains set lightly upon you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen. — Samuel Adams

    Amen

    Sorry I haven’t been around...honestly the defeat depressed me so much I haven’t hardly watched the news at all. I am coming out of it though and I have contacted the local Repub Party and am looking into ‘exploiting’ my exposure to run for some low level office. I really think that what happened was Providence and the loss to Obama just solidified my determination that what was once the Party of Conservatives return to that state. I am sick of the morons pandering to the Left as if getting on our knees for them will make us popular. Despite what those who live in the bubble of Manhattan Society believe and convey to us via the MSM, I remain convinced that our nation is filled with individuals who would welcome a genuinely traditional, conservative (fiscally and socially)revolution in politics. I want to be there when it happens.

    Wish me luck!

    I have to say I look forward to the uprising of the disenfranchised white suburban housewives of America in the event that Obama manages to steal the election. I eagerly anticipate the inclusion of our minority woes into liberal elite University studies across the nation.

    Sadly, I think the great epic film and Oprah favorite “The Hours” has shown that the response any any normal white suburban housewife to marginalization by society is to abandon her husband and children, become a lesbian, and then commiserate over her son’s dead, AIDS-riddled body, taking no responsibility in the outcome of his upbringing.

    Hmmm, maybe it would be better in the long run to just riot...

    quillizmightier to All

    I can’t believe how blatant their elitist mentality is. So apparently the hardworking Joe the Plumbers of this world can’t figure out for themselves what’s better: punishing or rewarding productivity.

    Obviously the underlying prejudice of the the Left here is that to their mind all white working-class voters are lazy drunken slobs who hate their wives and raise hornball sons and hooker daughters through their neglect and selfishness. As such they desperately need the socialized redistribution of the productive class’ earnings down to their cess-pool of sloth; not to mention school mandated safe sex education for their daughters and masturbation lessons for their sons.

    Wow. What can I say? So much support and generosity is just breathtaking. Everyone at FreeRepublic has been so kind and now this.

    We are in touch with an attorney who works in the Republican Party here and he is attempting to get us a pro-bono civil liberties attorney. If we do come to the point where we need help like bail or something, lmao, I will surely let you know but for now we’re okay, thank you.

  • Secret Service visits Lufkin woman after 'death threat' allegation from an Obama campaign volunteer

    I found this posting at The Annoyed Army. This person claims to have a son who works with the very agents who came to my door so I guess they were the real deal and they were ticked that I got ticked.

    Oh well, last I checked citizens paid their salary. I was patient until the woman got rude and the man questioned my thoughts. That’s my limit.

    “I cannot say too much without compromising my son but when I first got the e-mail about this (I’ve gotten it four times) I forwarded to him for his comments and he asked me not to quote him, for obvious reasons.

    But, he did say I could tell people that (1) he has worked with these two agents on numerous occasions, as they are both also assigned to the Houston Office, and he has NEVER - not a single time - seen them be anything but polite and professional and that they all have it hammered into their heads from day one of their training that they MUST at all times be polite to keep from damaging the image and reputation of the service.

    And (2) that the Service MUST - by law - investigate ANY allegation of a threat that is made to a public official they are responsible for protecting, even if does not APPEAR serious on the surface. They have NO CHOICE. If they just ASSUMED a threat was not serious and it turned out to be otherwise they would be - justifiably - crucified for not doing their job.

    As I said, I can’t give you specifics but let me just say that there IS another side to this story but the difference is that the agents cannot publicly defend themselves while this lady is free to spread her accusations far and wide over the internet.

    MY opinion? And remember.....this did NOT come from my son...the lady was ticked off (justifiably if she really did not make the comment) and took it out on the Agents, getting in their face with BOATLOADS of attitude, possibly refusing to cooperate. At that point the Agents probably stressed upon her the seriousness of a threat and they also probably mentioned that if she refused to cooperate with them their only alternative would be to talk to other people to see if they could find out if she might actually be a threat. But she turned their words around to say they THREATENED her, taking their innoculous comments and misrepresenting what they said.

    Again, my son did not SAY that’s what happened but I’m BETTING that’s what happened. The lady called Sean Hannity’s show last Friday to tell “her story” and she was ranting and raving and I have no doubt that was her attitude with the Agents talked to her.

    By the way, she got NOWHERE with Sean Hannity as he said he had been around a lot of SS Agents and that they had a difficult job and he had never seen any of them behave that way.

    Just keep in mind......there IS another side to this story. Oh, and by the way, they don’t HAVE badge numbers!”

    That’s okay...I don’t mean to be nitpicky but I want to be sure that the truth is disseminated. It’s hard enough in a she said-she said situation...I don’t want to be perceived as letting the story get twisted in any way. This is why I sent the email. It was the account I wrote with my husband immediately after the Agents left so as to keep the facts straight.

    ROFLMAO!

    Sorry, my husband is a babe so I won’t be cashing in.

    In reality I don’t want to seek monetary damages. I just want the law to work correctly. The producer from Chandler’s Watch, a radio show run by Marines who interviewed me said when he spoke to the Secret Service they claimed there is no equivalent to a ‘filing a false report’ in this case.

    I keep seeing references to hospital workers. Where did this idea come from? I have no idea who this girl is, only that she called from a number that lists as “The Obama Volunteers of Texarkana”.

    I can assure you this has taken far more than 15 minutes of my life. You can believe it’s a lie if you like for now. Maybe you’ll be more convinced when charges are filed. Ask yourself this: If I made all of this up where is the denial from the O campaign? They have been contacted several times and their response is never “Huh?” It’s “Still under investigation, we have no comment.” How about a comment from the ijit who called me saying “Oops! Bad connection. Misunderstanding.”

    The fact is I am proud of the concept our founding fathers had for individual liberty. I expect my children to grow up in a country where it is still valued. I am not exactly loving the time this takes or the vandalism to my yard or the accusations that I am a racist and I am not so foolish that I didn’t expect these very things going in. I am however, standing on principle and doing whatever I can to ensure that abuses like this don’t go unnoticed and chip away at the ideal of personal liberty in our country.

    I want to clarify about the agents validity. In my personal acct I do say that the male Agent conceded to give me a business card and the female agent’s name. While I am making no personal contact with them (I am leaving that end to my lawyer this week) several media outlets have called and questioned them at the Houston office # on the card. To date, no one has spoken with the actual agents, but NEITHER HAS THE SECRET SERVICE DENIED that agents were sent. I am assuming they were agents who were too pissy about my reaction to deign to let me see their ID after the initial quick-flip (where I couldn’t even see the ID).

    Well they got my cell phone number. My husband and two sons were in the car when they called. Their number is in my call log. I will leave it to my lawyer to determine who needs to receive the complaints, the list is growing. And no, I don’t want to change my cell number, it is for work purposes and I won’t allow some nitwit college koolaid junkie to cause me to have to contact every client I have dealt with in the last three years to give them a new number.
