BANGKOK (AP) — Thailand’s ruling military on Friday summoned the entire ousted government and members of the politically influential family at the heart of the country’s long-running conflict, a day after it seized control of this volatile Southeast Asian nation in a non-violent coup.

There was virtually no military presence on Bangkok’s streets, which were less crowded than usual but still filled with vendors and people heading to work after a 10 p.m. – 5 a.m. curfew the night before. There were no reports of overnight violence.   Continue reading “Thai coup leaders summon influential family”

Health Freedom

“If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls who live under tyranny.” — Thomas Jefferson

The quote above is a paraphrase taken from Jefferson’s Notes on Virginia, Query XVII (1781-1785).  The original quote centered around the concept of natural rights as it related to freedom of choice regarding our own bodies and souls.  As long as we do not harm others, we can think and do whatever we please.  This is how the founding fathers defined freedom.  This was originally what was meant by “common law” and “natural law“.   (The original concept of common law has been perverted by a corrupt judiciary under the bar association.)   Continue reading “Quote by Thomas Jefferson”

Dixie

This is another series of excerpts from The Day Dixie Died that our readers ought to really enjoy. What is the meant by the phrase “swallowing the dog”?

For Confederate veterans, the term “swallowing the dog” meant being forced to repeatedly pledge allegiance to the United States whose military forces were occupying the Confederacy.   Continue reading “Swallowing the Dog”

AE911Truth – by Craig McKee

It looked just like an infomercial, but with a lot more frowning.

In an example of Orwellian newspeak, the CNN show The Lead with Jake Tapper took on Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth over its decision to distribute information pamphlets outside the National September 11 Memorial and Museum at Ground Zero in New York City. The pamphlets mimic the design of the “official” ones, but instead of the official story, they contain key scientific forensic evidence indicating that the three World Trade Center towers were brought down with explosives and incendiaries. Unlike the official version, the photo on the cover of the AE pamphlet shows the Twin Towers and Building 7.   Continue reading “CNN’s “Yellow Journalism” Rating Hits All-Time High”

These words, spoken by many a lantern-jawed leading man of the 50s and 60s, were the first bold strokes of the writing on the wall for many a celluloid desperado. It was a surprise to us, living between two modern seaside communities on the hard-right seaboard of a continental nation, to learn that “the posse” still thrives in America. (We’ll follow this up with an article about an event with a historical posse: the exact one on the left).   Continue reading ““Call out the Posse””

A hog-riding former lawmaker from Wisconsin claims that Harley-Davidson voided his motorcycle’s repair warranty because of the patriotic flags he let fly from the back of his chopper.

However, Harley-Davidson says the warranty is still in effect and just his warranty claim has been denied.   Continue reading “Biker claims Old Glory ‘wind resistance’ prompts Harley-Davidson to void warranty”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

It was just a couple of months ago that President Obama declared a victory in the battle for affordable health care.

“Many of the tall tales that have been told about this law have been debunked.  There are still no death panels.  (Laughter.)  Armageddon has not arrived.  Instead, this law is helping millions of Americans, and in the coming years it will help millions more.”

The zombie apocalypse is nigh! The zombie apocalypse is nigh!

Well, no it isn’t. In fact, it’s probably as likely to occur as the rest of Paul Ehrlich’s predictions.

Ehrlich, a Stanford University biologist famous for his widely debunked book “The Population Bomb,” doubled down on his climate change and overpopulation fear-mongering with HuffPost Live on May 21. Ehrlich warned host Josh Zepps that the dangers of overpopulation are growing, blaming Republicans and the media for failing to take action. While hawking a new book called “Hope On Earth,” Ehrlich’s co-author Michael Tobias praised Ehrlich’s older, outrageously wrong predictions and said they underestimated the problem.   Continue reading “Alarmist Paul Ehrlich Predicts Need to ‘Eat the Bodies of Your Dead’”

“We need to change the laws in Texas,” said Jamie Spencer, who serves as legal counsel for Texas NORML, the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. “A sexual assault or manslaughter in Texas carries a maximum of 20 years. He’s looking at obviously, much more than that, potentially.”

Nineteen-year-old Jacob Lavoro is charged with possession of marijuana, a controlled substance called hash oil, plus the manufacture and delivery of brownies and cookies.   Continue reading “Teen could face life after cops find pot brownies”
