As nation after nation rushes towards backruptcy due to profligate spending that was easily avoidable with even the most basic restraint, the question posed in the title of this article is moving from being a purely academic question to one meriting serious study.

The government of Cyprus is one of those that justifies the question:   Continue reading “When is a citizenry justified in deposing its government?”

On Friday, GOA asked you to contact your Senators and urge them to support the Lee amendment which would require Senators to muster 67 votes before adopting gun control legislation. You responded to the call, and the results were very encouraging.

The good news is that a majority of Senators supported the Lee amendment by a 50-49 vote. The bad news is, since the Senate rules requires 60 votes, the Lee amendment fell ten votes short.   Continue reading “Feinstein Angry as Majority of the Senate Votes to Ban Gun Control”

There’s a strange story out there about Syrian President Bashar Assad’s assassination and possible death. It has little merit but the sourcing is interesting.

Gateway Pundit reported: BREAKING: Assad Shot By Bodyguard – Hospitalized in Damascus – Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, March 24, 2013, 12:22 PM

The sourcing on this leads to a French publication, JSS. Gateway Pundit listed the link as “Translated from JSS News:”   Continue reading “Rumors of Bashar Al Assad’s Assassination are Greatly Exaggerated”

“We are the food we eat, the water we drink, the air we breathe. And reclaiming the democratic control over our food and water and our ecological survival is the necessary project for our freedom.” [i]  – Vandana Shiva, physicist and activist

The objective of much of our industrial food system is to provide a profit to shareholders and CEOs. Coca-Cola’s advertising budget was over $2.9 billion dollars in 2010, money well spent from a stockholder’s point of view: profits that year were $11.8 billion.   Continue reading “The True Costs of Industrialized Food”

North America is now suffering its seventh year of conspicuous and dangerous aerosol and electromagnetic operations conducted by the U.S. government under the guise of national security. Concerned citizens watch in fear as military tankers discolor the skies with toxic chemicals that morph into synthetic clouds.   Continue reading “Chemtrails: Aerosol and Electromagnetic Weapons in the Age of Nuclear War”

Throughout the colorful history of organized crime in the United States, periodic eruptions of inter-gang Mafia violence have dotted the criminal landscape. When turf wars broke out between competing crime families in major cities such as New York and Chicago, the combatants would conduct their warfare from unsavory redoubts such as abandoned warehouses or low-rent hotels and apartments. In such locations, the soldiers would spend their off hours sleeping on rented mattresses until the internecine conflicts had run their course; hence the expression “going to the mattresses.”   Continue reading “It’s Head for “The Mattress” Time for Savers Worldwide”

It is the third anniversary of Obamacare, and as promised by Nancy Pelosi, we are finding out what is in it…the hard way.  We have seen the largest tax increase upon the middle class and working poor since the communist Roosevelt’s New Deal.  Health care costs are sky rocketing as coverage is disintegrating before our very eyes.

It has been shown that Obamacare is unconstitutional, ironically through a Supreme Court ruling affirming it as constitutional in that the penalty for refusing to do business with the insurance companies has been declared a tax, and all tax legislation having to be initiated in the Congress, Obamacare is invalid as it was initiated in the Senate.  Continue reading “Draconian Obamacare Must be Rejected Outright”

So Obama is to hit the campaign trail once again to reignite the push for gun control.  I guess Netanyahu must have straightened him out when he was in Israeli and told him to get his Uncle Tom ass back to the United States and get the confiscations underway, so here comes Obama rope-a-dope across the country, on our dollar, of course.

Yesterday it was reported that the US Senate voted to reject the UN Small Arms Treaty, but don’t be lulled into complacency as they still have four more days to accomplish their sedition, thus the rush to get Obama back in our faces.    Continue reading “Obama to Bring Gun Confiscation Dictates to the Streets”

The Supreme Court will be taking up arguments for and against same sex marriage, once again, sticking its nose anywhere and everywhere but where it belongs.  Marriage is a religious institution, a covenant between a man, a woman, and their Creator.  Marriage is the foundation upon which the family is built and as it is the clearly stated goal of the communists to destroy that institution, it will of course be the duty of the socialist Supreme Court to facilitate.

The 1^st Article of our Bill of Rights guarantees our freedom of worship and had our churches stayed pure in doing the works of the Lord, they would still be free.  It was greedy individuals within the power structure of the churches that decided to begin engaging in the pursuit of mammon through enterprise.  It was an easy next step for these false profits to accept communist infiltration via the incentive for personal profit, moving the churches into the 501(c)3 corporate realm and making the congregations not but non-voting share holders in their enterprise.   Continue reading “The Creator’s Law to be Judged by the Supreme Court”

The first step is to learn the facts, and then to get angry and to ask ourselves, as progressives and caring human beings, what we can do about the relentless transfer of wealth to a small group of well-positioned Americans.

Groups protesting police brutality staged a rally at the vigil site for Kimani Gray on Sunday afternoon, followed by a march that wound through East Flatbush and eventually to the 67th Precinct. Throughout the march, the 200 or so demonstrators were accompanied by an astounding number of police, one of whom brandished a megaphone designed as a non-lethal deterrent. At times police appeared to outnumber protesters by three or four to one. One protester was detained after stepping off of the sidewalk, but an NYPD spokesman could not confirm that any arrests were made.   Continue reading “NYPD Brandishes “LRAD X” At Kimani Gray Protest In Brooklyn”

(Reuters) – Israel said it fired into Syria on Sunday and destroyed a machinegun position in the Golan Heights from where shots had been fired at Israeli soldiers in a further spillover of the Syrian civil war along a tense front.

It was not immediately clear whether Israel held Syrian troops or rebels responsible for what a spokesman for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said had been a deliberate attack on Israeli patrols in the occupied territory.   Continue reading “Israel fires into Syria after Golan attack on troops”
