Progress Texas – by Glenn Smith

The powers that be at CPRIT, the cancer research fund that Gov. Rick Perry is using as his slush fund to reward contributors, would like us to forget that it remains under criminal investigation. Texans, though, are outraged that tax money intended to find cures for cancer has been turned into just another crony capitalist wasteland.

Over the last few months, Texas media have uncovered improper grants, grants made without scientific review, grants to Perry contributors, and the resignations of dozens of agency scientists in protest of the crass commercialization of the agency and the crony capitalism.  Continue reading “Rick Perry Breaks His Promise on Cancer Research”

According to this story from Phyllis Schlafly on the Eagle Forum, for the first time in  America’s history, all 18 year old women will be required to register for the draft. Soon, women who are still in high school and their first year of college will have to be ready to receive a letter from the Selective Service telling them they’re required to report for military duty. Soon, 18 year old women who have just begun their lives will have to kill real people and bleed real blood. Is this the way we indoctrinate the future into an endless war? Start with video games and then give young girls the taste for blood. What has America come to? Meanwhile, just days ago, Barack Obama signed the Violence Against Womens Act as shown on the whitehouse YouTube Channel in the video below. Where are Mr. Obama’s priorities? Don’t these two acts contradict each other? From Phyllis’s report with much more at link.   Continue reading “Obama’s War On Women: All 18 Year Old Women Will Now Have To Register For The Draft”

Dianne Feinstein’s assault weapon ban now appears to be a little more than decoy sent out to be shot down while the real work on gun control legislation is hammered out by Democrats, Republicans and the NRA behind closed doors.

According to sources cited by Ammoland.com, the “NRA is cutting back room deals to centralize gun owner data collection into the Obama/Holder massive government data base.” Republicans are working with Democrats to pass legislation that will require records be kept on all gun sales and also move to streamline and improve the database.   Continue reading “Democrats, Republicans and NRA work together on gun confiscation”

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Bloomberg Administration moved forward Tuesday afternoon with its appeal of a judge’s decision to halt New York City’s ban on super-sized sugary drinks.

“We are moving forward immediately with our appeal,” said corporation counsel Michael Cardozo. “We believe the judge was wrong in rejecting this important public health initiative. We also feel he took an unduly narrow view of the Board of Health’s powers.”   Continue reading “NYC Files Notice Of Appeal Of Judge’s Decision Halting Large Sugary Drinks Ban”

SPLCLOGO_SPOT_stacked copyFreedom Outpost – by Tim Brown

The Southern Poverty Law Center(SPLC), an organization that claims to teach tolerance while attacking certain groups and people with whom they disagree, has sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano urging them to investigate alleged domestic terror threats posed by the likes of organizations and individuals such as the Constitution PartyLarry Pratt of Gun Owners of America, columnist Devvy Kidd, the Tyranny Response Team, and Oath Keepers. These thousands of people and organizations that the SPLC spews its hatred against by declaring them to be those that hate are, for the most part, people who simply are Americans who see a growing tyrannical Federal government and want to halt it in its tracks.   Continue reading “SPLC Letter To DOJ & DHS: Patriot Groups Pose Domestic Terror Threat”

Like a scene straight out of the cult classic Clockwork Orange, we learn today that a judge has ruled that James Holmes may be ordered to take ‘truth serum’ if he pleads not guilty by reason of insanity.

Is this the way mainstream America and the world find out that the Aurora shooting was a false flag, and James Holmes merely a drugged up CIA patsy? Or will we learn that Holmes was a part of a two or three-man hit team? Will Holmes under ‘truth serum’ finally answer the questions we’re all sitting on the edges of our seats waiting for or will they pull a ‘Breitbart’ on him before he’s allowed to talk?   Continue reading “Truth Serum For James Holmes? Judge Rules On ‘Batman Shooter’”

Informed Comment – by Juan Cole

Once again, the erratic president of Afghanistan, had US officials shaking their heads in disbelief after he gave a speech while Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel is in Kabul in which he blamed the interactions of the US and the Taliban for his country’s security problems.

Karzai was visibly angry about the Taliban bombing at the Ministry of Defense on Hagel’s arrival. In his Pashtu speech he said that the Taliban carried it out “in the service of America.” What he appears to have meant by that weird accusation is that the Taliban are eager to prevent a US withdrawal in 2014 and are attempting to draw the US into a greater entanglement in the country as a pretext for painting the Kabul government as lackeys of the Americans who need to be overthrown.

ALFRED MURRAH FEDERAL BUILDINGOccupy Corporatism – by Susanne Posel

Americans For Responsible Solutions (AFRS) has put out an anti-gun ad calling for support for federal legislation to restrict the 2nd Amendment rights of all Americans.

AFRS is a 5019 (c) 4 nonprofit headed by former House Representative Gabrielle Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly. The organization networks and lobbies for gun control while bringing together “likeminded friends” who will propagandize to the public and force Congress to “take a stand for responsible policies, legislators will no longer have reason to fear the gun lobby and their dangerously deep pockets.” Continue reading “MSM Warns Patriot Anti-Gov Groups Planning 2nd Oklahoma City Bombing”

The Survivalist Blog – by Mike R.

The wise prepper knows that his guns are the most important part of his survival gear. Guns are not only a means of taking meat, pelts and hides, they can be used for varmint control around a farm site with crops or farm animals and poultry. They also serve as an equalizer; guns give the owner threat protection against violent action taken by animals with two or four legs. A gun in the hands of someone who knows how to capably use it inspires confidence and reduces stress in turbulent times. It also becomes a important commodity in an unstable economy.

Breitbart – by Joel B. Pollak

Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), a member of the Democratic Party’s leadership in the House of Representatives, suggested to Jason Mattera at a Feb. 13 women’s rights rally that plans for an assault weapons ban and private-sales background checks were only the beginning of a broader gun control agenda extending to handguns as well.

Schakowsky evidently did not recognize Mattera, a conservative video journalist and senior investigative reporter for Talk Radio Network, who infamously confronted Vice President Joe Biden in the Capitol. (Mattera introduced himself to Schakowsky by name but did not indicate that he was filming or that he is conservative.) She spoke to Mattera as if he were a fellow gun control enthusiast–and Mattera played along, eliciting answers about Schakowsky’s enthusiasm for gun control.
