The courts ruled that since some of their students took federal grants, that the college was therefore federally funded.

Part of the apathy tha AZ_Redneck and I have banged on about is evident right here.

Why do we allow the courts/judges to be described this way? Judges and courts do not rule. They are not our lords, masters, kings or superiors. Every time we speak about them in this way, we further tacitly legitimize their behavior.

The most dangerous thing about this ‘ruling’ is the fact that we accept and acknowledge that it is a ‘ruling’ – our correct response should be “just who the fuck do you think you are?”.

Well said.

Personally I find this to be a dangerous ruling. Is a grocery store federally funded because some of it’s customers are on welfare?

If the logic of this ruling is taken to it’s extreme, everything is federally funded and the feds can control everything.

- the liberal press,
- liberal judges legislating at the bench,
- liberal legislators,
- liberal universities,
- or any other liberal group where blame might be shifted …

The defect is in us … in our character … we permitted this situation to come forward. While we sat and reveled in our narcissistic individuality and self esteem, we have been asleep at the wheel in protecting our federal republic and have, if not explicitly, but implicitly, effectively abdicated our responsibilities as its citizens in a goverment that, under original intent, operated at the consent of the governed. If you are slow on the uptake, get one thing straight … the goverment is no longer scared of you.

We have

- permitted the state to spend and grow uncontrolled,
- permitted the state to allow the killing of our unborn children,
- permitted the state to develop welfare wealth redistribution programs,
- permitted the state to educate our children,
- permitted the state to militarize the police,
- permitted the state to regulate every part of our very lives in creating the fictitious utilitarian safety net …

A little sleep, a little slumber, and now the jack-booted thug is on the door step.

Ready to reclaim your rights and your country? Ready to commit real sacrifice?

Or do you still think someone else (military, police, fire-fighter, … man down the street) will do it for you?

As long as you remain semi-employed (or get a government check), can sit in the lazy boy, eat dinner and watch American Idol … I think everyone will just roll over and take it.

(The last two presidential elections, they did this, and of course Gore and Kerry both won in landslides.)

Is this for real?

It’s for real, but I think Roger Hedgecock is off base here.

If I were the Secret Service, and a phone bank operator from one of the candidates’ campaigns reported an incident in which a caller heard someone on the other end of the phone say, “He’s going to end up dead on a hospital floor,” I would investigate it. It’s their job.

Now, it happens that that’s likely not what the person on the other end of the phone said. That doesn’t change the fact, though, that it’s appropriate for the Secret Service to investigate such a claim.

There are other data points suggesting a thugocracy in progress; I’ve written about it several times on my blog site. However, this is not one of those instances.

Next question.

mobs shouting down critics

This seems to be the new “talking points” by Obama supporters/democrat strategists/fascist splinter groups such as Acorn against anyone who wants to dare question the One’s ascent to the Oval Office.
When a republican strategist/Palin/mccain supporters try to make their point, they are shouted down by the Obama supporter. Thug politics are here. And once again, I’m sure we will be called racist for dare using the word “thug”.

Am I paranoid?? If I can think of this,, so can Obama!
Obama is the one who sat in the racist church for 20 years listening to black nationalism.

People who complained about Robert Mugabe, before he took office were accussed of being paranoid as well.

The polls seem to be swinging back a bit. It may be hopeless at this point but the “negative” campaigning seems to be working.

Remember how negative Obama went to regain his lead? Well, it may not be pretty but people need to be informed about who Obama is. If every person in the US has the ability to judge honestly and they choose Obama well that is that.

But the fact that so many facts are hidden from the public at this point… that is a lot harder to live with.

Also, law enforcement has to give you their names and badge numbers. Don’t let them just flash their badges. Tell them to hand it to you so you can examine it. Also, besides a badge, they must provide you an official photo ID.

Considering the fact that Obama is about to buy the White House and has used his considerable financial advantage to flood the airways with all kinds of propaganda, I am having a hard time equating political advertising with simple free speech.

This does not mean that I think advertising should be done away with, but I have reached a point where I don’t consider the kinds of things Obama does with all that money to just be free speech.

Personally I think all the money is corrupting the system even more than it already is.

Could be guys, on both accounts, I just don’t know.

Just trying to keep track of things is all.

He does seem a little “odd” to say the least.

Over.
