From Lew Rockwell: Backscatter Van

From The Hill: Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor predicted Thursday that a case involving WikiLeaks would likely come before the court. She said that the WikiLeaks “incident,” in which the group posted thousands of classified Afghanistan war documents online, “and others are going to provoke legislation that’s already being discussed in Congress, and so some [...]

I had posted my blog post I made on Aug 18, which included a video and petition opposing construction of a mosque near the WTC, to several mailing lists and newsgroups I am on. It seems that more people agreed with construction than I thought. Most criticism comes from a Catholic Yahoo group, where many [...]

Van Irion, a lawyer and Congressional candidate from Tennessee, recently began a class action suit to repeal the recently-passed Obamacare. There is more to Irion’s case than just Obamacare – he is challenging several FDR-era Supreme Court rulings which have since given near unlimited powers to the federal government.

Other than the buttons on the side and some links in the blogroll, I don’t like to discuss politics on this blog, as I’ve run political blogs before and it’s just frustrating and boring after a while. However, I’ve just come across a great article, fully cited, on the 17th Amendment and the damage it [...]

This video is scary. A conspiracy theorist goes around the streets of California trying to get signatures for a “Repeal the 1st Amendment” petition. He markets the 1st Amendment as outdated and tells people signing that a repeal will prevent “hate speech” and will ban criticism of the President. No joke! Watch the video: Video [...]
