I can’t exactly say that I’d like to go back and relive the era of the 60s.

Then again, right now I’m experiencing a different kind of 60s, and between the two I’ll take the first one — cannabis-stained knuckles, fingers, and hands — hands-down!

It seems incredible that it’s been over 40 years since those days of sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll, and for me, well, two out of three wasn’t bad. Much has changed in our culture since then, including our language. Many of the old phrases are still around, but the meanings aren’t quite the same.   Continue reading “Sixties Speak — Then And Now”

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) – Federal investigators on Sunday were looking into commercial trucking and other safety issues in the wake of a deadly chain-reaction crash on the New Jersey Turnpike that left actor-comedian Tracy Morgan and two others critically injured and another man dead.

A Wal-Mart truck driver from Georgia was charged with death by auto and four counts of assault by auto. Authorities said 35-year-old Kevin Roper, of Jonesboro, apparently failed to slow for traffic ahead early Saturday in Cranbury Township and swerved at the last minute to avoid a crash. Instead, his big rig smashed into the back of Morgan’s chauffeured Mercedes limo bus, killing comedian James “Jimmy Mack” McNair, authorities said.

Indiana treasurer Richard Mourdock warned that the possibility of U.S. bankruptcy will push the country the way of Nazi Germany during a speech on Saturday.

“The people of Germany in a free election selected the Nazi party because they made great promises that appealed to them because they were desperate and destitute. And why is that? Because Germany was bankrupt,” Mourdock said to a crowd gathered at the Indiana Republican Convention on Saturday.   Continue reading “Richard Mourdock Warns America Heading Way of Nazi Germany in Dramatic Farewell Speech”

South Carolina has become the second state to officially dump the Obama administration-pushed national education standards known as Common Core, which have sparked an unprecedented uprising among teachers and parents that transcends traditional political divides and partisanship. Republican Governor Nikki Haley, a vocal critic of the controversial education plot, signed the legislation last week and is already receiving widespread praise for the move. Still, some opponents of Common Core are warning that the battle in South Carolina is not finished yet.   Continue reading “South Carolina Rejects Common Core”

On June 4, Oklahoma joined Utah, Texas, and Louisiana in affirming that gold and silver coins are (as they always have been under the Constitution) legal tender in the payment of debts in the state. On the surface this seems almost nonsensical: affirming a right that already exists in Article I, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution. But it is much more than that.

Senate Bill 862, which Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin signed into law this week, says,

Gold and silver coins issued by the United States government are legal tender in the State of Oklahoma.   Continue reading “Oklahoma Affirms Gold and Silver as Legal Tender”

On Jan. 10, 1963, ten-term Democrat Congressman Albert S. Herlong Jr., who represented Florida’s 5th District, read a list of 45 Communist goals into the Congressional Record. The list was derived from researcher and former FBI agent Cleon Skousen’s book “The Naked Communist.”

Of course this isn’t new information, but it is even more critical today than it was then with the passage of time. It is now fifty-one years later and the hard work of the communists seems to be paying off – for them, and they aren’t through. Every American should be clamoring in the streets over what is taking place. The fact that we aren’t is frightening.  Continue reading “38 Points From 1963 – It Is Happening – The Communist Takeover of America”

We all know our President doesn’t just dislike Jan Brewer, Governor of Arizona – I will dare say he has a pathological hatred of the woman.  They have banged heads since 2008, and the President has never been shy about using the might of the Federal Government to force his will up[on her and Arizona.

CavMedic noted the story first that illegals were being bussed from South Texas and released in Arizona.  There weren’t many details at that point.  Was it Texas behind the move?  CavMedic has stayed with the story as more has become known.  Now we know it is FedGov behind the massive deployment.   Continue reading “CavMedic, La Raza, & more…”

   It looks like a new front might be opening up on the global warming battlefield and this time the attackers will be the insurance companies. A few weeks ago I intended to write about an insurance company which, rather than pay for storm damage, decided to sue the city of Chicago for failing to adequately prepare for global warming but I never got around to that post.

  Since that time the lawsuit has been dropped but this is just the beginning: insurance companies believe they have found a way out of paying for their obligations and there is more likely to follow according to this article.   Continue reading “Insurance companies prepare to sue cities for not preparing for global warming”

Ukraine company Burisma Holdings officially hired U.S. Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden as a lawyer after the company appointed him to the board of directors in April.

So just what would happen if there were an EMP attack within the United States? Well first of all EMP stands for Electromagnetic Pulse and it occurs after the detonation of a nuclear weapon in the lower atmosphere. If a nuclear weapon is exploded in the atmosphere… the ground area below (a very large geographical area) would be impacted by the EMP.

The EMP would essentially knock out all electricity, which would mean the following would no longer work or would go out of working order or existence very quickly.   Continue reading “25 things that stop working after an EMP attack”

In their own words, we can convict the traitors within for crimes against the Constitution.

“The whole gospel of Karl Marx can be summed up in a single sentence: Hate the man who is better off than you are. Never under any circumstances admit that his success may be due to his own efforts, to the productive contribution he has made to the whole community. Always attribute his success to the exploitation, the cheating, the more or less open robbery of others. Never under any circumstances admit that your own failure may be owing to your own weakness, or that the failure of anyone else may be due to his own defects, to his laziness, incompetence, improvidence or simple stupidity.” – Henry Hazlitt on envy and Marxism

One week after a federal appeals court ruled that citizens possess First Amendment rights to film cops, a police department in New Hampshire agreed to settle with a woman who was arrested on wiretapping charges.

In 2010, Carla Gericke was arrested on wiretapping charges for filming her friend being pulled over by the Weare Police during a traffic stop. When ordered by police to turn over her camera, she refused, and was duly charged for disobeying a police officer, obstructing a government official, and “unlawful interception of oral communications.”    Continue reading “Woman arrested for filming police wins $57,000 settlement”

Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has flouted the advice of his own attorney general and scores of legal scholars by signing a bill which blocks a levee board’s lawsuit against oil and gas companies, who are accused of destroying the state’s coast.

“This bill will help stop frivolous lawsuits and create a more fair and predictable legal environment, and I am proud to sign it into law,” Jindal said in a written statement Friday.   Continue reading “Louisiana Gov. signs bill killing lawsuits against oil and gas companies”

On June 5, under major pressure from across the state, Republican Governor Mary Fallin (shown) signed legislation passed recently by the legislature in a landslide, officially repealing the national standards that have sparked a nationwide uprising among parents and teachers.   Continue reading “Oklahoma Dumps Common Core as Dominoes Fall”
