Enforce our Bill of Rights
How Many Constitutional Freedoms Have We Lost?
This post explains the liberties guaranteed in the Bill of Rights – the first 10 amendments to the United States Constitution – and provides a scorecard on the extent of the loss of each right. (This is an updated version of an essay we wrote in February. Since then, it has become apparent that the few rights we thought we had left are largely illusory.)

After a 30-year military career in which he earned three graduate degrees, rose to the rank of colonel, and served as an aide to Pentagon brass, Robert Freniere can guess what people might say when they learn he’s unemployed and lives out of his van:
Why doesn’t this guy get a job as a janitor?
Freniere answers his own question: “Well, I’ve tried that.” Continue reading “From the Pentagon to life in a van”
Opposition is building quickly and quietly opposing Obama’s plan to ram through Congress one of the most ambitious “free-trade agreements” ever negotiated. Opposition to the legislation that could be introduced as soon as January 8 is gaining ground via the Internet.
Negotiated under a veil of secrecy by the Obama administration, the international trade agreement is regarded by globalist free traders as the cornerstone of the “New World Order.” As a result of the legislation Obama would be granted “fast track authority” to ram the Trans-Pacific Partnership through Congress with virtually no debate and no room for proposed amendments.

Congratulations to all my friends who were born in the 1930’s, 1940’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, and the early 1980s

They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, raw egg products, loads of bacon and processed meat, tuna from a can, and we didn’t get tested for diabetes or cervical cancer. Continue reading “The Way We Were”

The history of the tourniquet dates at least as far back as 500 BC when the Romans designed a device to control bleeding during amputations. It was made mostly of bronze and was lined with a bit of leather for “comfort”
Primarily because of the practical need to control bleeding during surgical procedures, other tourniquet designs proliferated during the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. These were quite simplistic and culminated in the development of a pneumatic tourniquet that is currently used thousands of times/day across the world to permit the creation of a bloodless field during procedures on both the upper and lower extremities.
