Our government has undertaken some monumental legislation that fully impacts the American way of life, our freedom, and our sovereignty. The purpose of such legislation is to homogenize Canada, Mexico, and the United States into a North American Union - and we're all going to sleep through it.

Have you heard of a little-known program called the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America? This tri-lateral partnership was signed by President Bush last year without Congressional oversight or public approval. Opponents of the SPP have called it NAFTA on steroids - and we all know how disastrous NAFTA has been for everyone except Mexico. It also appears to be modeled on the ineffective and highly unpopular European Union (unpopular with the people, that is). more...

What do you know -- another group that claims to support freedom shows that they only support it when you agree with them. Abraham Foxman of the US Jewish Anti-Defamation League wants a criminal investigation into a person who dared to utter forbidden words, "Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world."

Really, that's all. He didn't say anything about killing them, he didn't say anything about wanting them dead. He didn't say anything else, at all, about them. But Mr. Foxman wants this person arrested and charged with a crime. Obviously Mr. Foxman is a strong supporter of punishing people who do not verbally agree with him.

Mr. Foxman, you are free to disagree with anyone you want. You are free to say nearly anything you like. However, when you advocate using the force of government to punish someone who merely makes a statement that you, personally, don't like, you are way out of line. You had better hope that there is no criminal punishment for freedom of speech -- for one day someone may be in power who disagrees with YOUR speech.

Last week the North Carolina General Assembly finished their business for the year. That is, of course, unless they decide to hold a sudden, secret meeting to pass any legislation that needs to be passed secretly, as they did last year to slip the lottery through. The General Assembly is dominated and controlled by Democrats. They hold a majority in both chambers and if you dare disagree with them, you will be shunned, ignored, and attacked by them.

So, what accomplishments did the Democrats in the Legislature complete in this short, election year? Well, they started the session with $2 BILLION more of taxpayer money than they were supposed to have. In other words, the economy was so good in spite of the Democrats and their crushing of freedom, that we paid over $2 BILLION more than they expected.

So, what did they do? Hello? They're Democrats -- what do you THINK they did? They spent it. They spent every single dime of it. But oh, that wasn't enough, no! They also raised taxes on income and sales! They created brand-new taxes on things that had never been taxed before. They transferred money from the lottery to supplant previous expenditures from the general fund. They considered adding toll roads -- because they didn't spend any of that $2 Billion fixing the horrible roads we've got in North Carolina.

So, if you like higher taxes, more government, bigger government, less freedom, less control, more spending on education with zero results, and crappy roads, support your Democrat incumbent in the legislature at election time this fall -- that is, if you even have a choice on your ballot -- most districts do not.

Ah, Friday, time for some lighter fare. How about a Marine Corps Boot Camp joke?

his story was told to me by a friend and one of the most outstanding Marines I ever had the pleasure to serve with.

Joe Fuller served as a Marine Corps Drill Instructor, and as such, he too possessed the temperament typical of their breed -- always on the quest to find new, educational, and amusing ways to entertain their charges -- the unwary Marine Corps boot camp recruit.

Head detail (Latrine duty for you Doggies and Prop Heads) is something few escape during recruit training. It's pretty safe to say that after a head has been field-day'd by Marine recruits, you would be hard pressed to find a more sterile place this side of a hospital operating room.

Unless a bored, Marine Corps Drill Instructor is doing the inspecting!

As Joe tells it, failing to clean the head to the Drill Instructor's satisfaction the first time, and under the threat of facing their D.I.'s wrath should they fail inspection on the second try (there is no such thing as a third chance in boot camp) everything was checked and double checked before announcing that the head was now, finally, ready for inspection.

The Drill Instructor ordered the recruits to stand-by, directly outside of the head (and out of view) while he conducted what they knew would be an inspection on a microscopic level. The Drill Instructor had no doubts that the head was probably cleaner now then the date it was built. That situation was about to change.

Pulling a small container of peanut butter (chunky style) from his pocket, the Drill Instructor carefully placed a substantial amount of it under the rim (out of direct sight) of one of the commodes. In his deepest, scariest, and loudest voice, he let out a bellow, "HEAD DETAIL! GET YOUR ASSES IN HERE NOW!"

All three recruits came charging into the head, stopping a few feet from their obviously perturbed Drill Instructor and assuming the position of attention. In unison, with eyes rigidly locked above and beyond their D.I.'s face, all three yelled, "SIR, AYE AYE, SIR!"

"You scumbags call this a clean head?" The Drill Instructor demanded. Knowing that they scrubbed and disinfected every nook and cranny possible, twice, the only response they could offer was "Sir, Yes Sir!"

The Drill Instructor walked over to the prepared commode, reached on the rim with his fingers, and with as much dramatic flare as he could muster he thrust his hand forward at the recruits and said, "Then would you mind telling me what the hell this is!"

The recruits were far enough away not to clearly identify the chunky, brownish substance clinging to the Drill Instructor's fingers. Additionally, their present environment was lending a certain amount of authenticity to what was being held out before their eyes.

Not waiting for an answer, and watching the color disappear from their faces, The D.I. looked down at the brown glob and started the show.

"Well, then, if this head is so cleaned, this must not be what it looks like, right? Because it sure looks like CRAP to me, private!"

He could see that one recruit's body began to shake visibly, while the color in the faces of the two others was turning from pale white to a light green.

He then move his hand to his nose and inhaled the fragrance. With his best effort of a complete look of disgust on his face, he said, "This definitely smells like crap too, private!"

A look of terror began to show in the recruits' eyes as the Drill Instructor slowly lower his hand towards his mouth. Biting off a chunk of the brown mass, the D.I. offered, "And it damn sure tastes like crap, private!"

Two of the three recruits were unconscious on the floor and probably never heard the D.I.'s last assessment. The third continued to empty the contents of his stomach in the nearest commode as their fun-loving and entertaining Drill Instructor walked past him humming the Marine Corps Hymn.

Semper Fi!

1 That is a bit interesting, but some how, I am not surprised that at this, and I am sure that more than one DI (including my old teacher from HS, was was a USAF DI) have done that.

5 I remember one of our DI's thrashing this poor kid, and just ripping him a new one. The stuff he was saying was great, but no one laughed, until he started laughing himself. Before you knew it, the classroom was full of sweating idiots...

Posted by: That 1 Guy at August 03, 2006 12:42 PM (d2V9K)

6 Oh, I remember those. He'd turn around and start yelling, "Dammit, who laughed? Did YOU laugh, private? One of you laughed, who was it?"

Posted by: Ogre at August 03, 2006 12:45 PM (/k+l4)

7 Exactly... "I know I didn't just hear laughter. That sounded like a laugh... who did that private??? Was it you? Oh, you don't know? BEGIN!!!"

Posted by: That 1 Guy at August 03, 2006 10:41 PM (d2V9K)

Sometimes when I read an article about events in the North Carolina state government, I have a lot to say. However, sometimes the author of the article really says all that needs to be said. Senator Phil Burger has such an article. It's regarding the new massive expenditure of taxpayer money that creates a new "commission" and gives it all sorts of power -- to spend taxpayer money without responsibility. In addition,

This “reform” fails to address the primary issue driving the public call for meaningful ethics reform and a more open legislative process.

I just was informed about a new blog that looks pretty darn interesting to me. It's the Magic City Morning Star Blog. It's an online blog for the Magic City Morning News, a small-town newspaper from Maine.

What's really neat is that this appears to be an independent press that is not liked by the government. Hey, just about anything that annoys the government is a good thing, so can you refuse taking a peek? It's completely new, but there's links to various videos of town meetings and government officials who really don't like being filmed.

I can relate, as I had a North Carolina Senator try and throw me out of the PUBLIC viewing gallery because I had a 35mm camera. He felt "threatened." Hey morons, if you're threatened by being held accountable for what you're doing, perhaps it's because what you're doing is wrong!

Anyway, go take a look!

3 I found this on the net Liberals….Oy Vey! A Little Humor For The Weekend July 27, 2006 Vox Populi, The Rogue Jew I’m leaving for New York on Saturday for five days and before I leave I thought that I would put something up on the blog to bring a smile to your faces. I guess I need somewhat of a break from the hate spewed daily by the Mainstream Media toward Israel and the Jewish People. I hope some of the people from my shul read this post and take a long look at themselves and consider the reality of the people (Democrats) they support except of course the great Joe Lieberman who is the only Democrat with Balls as far as I’m concerned. Have a great weekend, see ya when I get back from Liberal Land USA. How to tell if your a Liberal: You think Janet Reno is hot. You would rather see a cowboy smoke the baloney poney rather then a Marlboro. If you think the New York Times is fair and balanced, but Fox News is ultra right-wing… You think Al Gore won the election in 2000. If you think the Free Market is where they hand out Government cheese. If you would accept a car ride from The Chappaquiddick Kid. You look at Yassir Arafat as a “man of peace”. If you think alcoholics are disabled and deserve Social Security (or should be elected to be the senior senator from Massachussettes) If your five year old tells YOU what to do. You cannot name one single NASCAR driver. You are worried what the French think of America. You think that consenting adults can engage freely in every activity except capitalism. If you think Sean Hannnity and Ann Coulter are mean spirited racists and promote hate crimes, but Maxine Waters, John Conyers and Louis Farakahn aren’t and don’t. If you think that the only acceptable hate crime is Christian bashing. You think we never gave peace a chance. Sean Penn makes sense to you. Awec Bawdwin makes even more sense. You want to outlaw cigarettes and legalize marijuana. If you use the words “xtians”, neo-con’s” or “wing-nuts” at least four times in any given day. You say Have a Great Winter Solstice, Happy Kwankza, Merry Ramadan and think saying Merry Christmas is just wrong. You think that the words “to promote the general welfare” in the Constitution mean to promote welfare generally. You believe that even though the top 20 percent of taxpayers pay 80 percent of income taxes, that the rich are not paying their “fair share.” You think that The Godfather’s listeners are mindless “dittoheads,” but you have never doubted anything that you heard from Michael Moore…. You believe that rich people should not be allowed to contribute so much money to candidates for office (except for George Soros)…. You have no problem with Hollywood movie starts flying around in private jets to give speeches on the evils of SUVs…. If you believe Islamic Terrorists are Freedom Fighters and the Israeli Army are Terrorists…. You believe its ok to punch a Police officer just because your Black…. You think the really alarming violence takes place outside the abortion clinic. You would save a deer but kill a baby. If you make snide remarks to guys for looking at women but champion Clinton’s right to do whatever he wants with his interns. You called Vietnam Veterans “baby killers” but think that allowing a woman to suck her baby into a sink is a constitutionally protected right. You want to outlaw cigarrettes and legalize marijuana You believe the National Rifle Association helps criminals while the American Civil Liberties Union protects the innocent.

Well, at least that's what the gay Ohio group Equality Ohio says:

We call on Blackwell to retract his statement and apologize for his remarks

I think homosexuality is a lifestyle, it's a choice, and that lifestyle can be changed. I think it's a transgression against God's law, God's will. The reality is again ... that we make choices all the time. And, I think you make good choices and bad choices in terms of lifestyle. Our expectation is that one's genetic makeup might make one more inclined to be an arsonist, or may make one more inclined to be a kleptomaniac. Do I think that can be changed? Yes.

Sorry, faggots, in this country, at least so far, we've got freedom of speech. If I Ken Blackwell or I want to tell you that what you're doing is against God's law, we have a right to do that and zero obligation to "shut up." In fact, in a free country, you telling me to "shut up" is much more offensive and dangerous than me telling you that you've made a bad choice.

Only if you're very close and involved in the area is it likely that you hear about crime in the University of North Carolina at Charlotte area. You see, the city council takes great efforts to suppress any news stories that might harm the image of "Charlotte, USA." However, there is crime.

Interestingly, this is a group of thugs who are traveling around, violently robbing people at knifepoint. They have selected their victims on purpose -- they are all unarmed, and the robbers know this. Why? Because it's against the law to carry a firearm at all on the campus of UNCC.

So, if you obey the law, you are trusting the university and the city to protect you. That's not happening. You see, the city of Charlotte has enough money to buy and build new basketball arenas, pay for "living wages," airports, tourism, and trains that no one will use; but somehow they don't have enough money to actually pay for police to protect people from these thugs.

You have two choices. You can willingly submit to these thugs and hope they don't decide to start adding assault and murder to their tactics, or you can break the law and shoot the bastards where they stand. I don't think even the OJ jury will convict you if you shoot one of a group of eight who attack you with knives. Yes, it really has come to this point. You cannot trust the city of Charlotte to protect you against violent thieves -- which means you either surrender or take responsibility for your own life.

Of course, feel free to contact your city council member and ask for police protection. Don't actually expect them to listen to you, however. They're too busy spending billions on the Mayor Patrick McCrory signature light train line.

This week Wictory Wednesday presents Doug Lamborn for Congress for the 5th District of Colorado.

Doug Lamborn is a solid conservative with a history of fiscal restraint. He supports reforming education to give more choices to parents instead of dumping more money into a bloated bureaucracy. He believes there should be little to no federal role in education as those decision should be best left up to local areas to determine their own needs. Education is the absolute key to continued economic development and sustainability and it is clear that school choice will once again produce schools and students who are representative of the greatness of this nation.

You're likely not seeing a lot of coverage of the latest news out of the Yale School of Medicine. Why is that? Because it's a discovery that, at it's core, provides more evidence that will dispute abortion on demand.

It seems the researchers there have discovered when humans develop a part of the brain that makes us human (and not animals) -- the cerebral cortex. And no, it doesn't develop only after birth, much to the chagrin of the pro-death anti-life pro-death choice "pro-choice" crowd. Instead, it develops 31 days after the human egg has been fertilized.

Those who argue that there's no human life until after birth, after the second trimester, or even after the first trimester now have even less ground to stand on. This research shows that humans begin developing as humans in just 31 days -- so you cannot legitimately claim that an abortion at 3 months is killing "just a fetus" or a "non-human."

This is more evidence that was not known when the fatal "Roe v. Wade" decision was handed down that shows that it was a wrong decision based on science (never mind the state's rights violations).

Want free money? Just ask the state of North Carolina. They're giving away completely free money with zero strings attached. You can use it for whatever you like (as long as you claim to be doing research). Oh, but you have to be a business.

You see, in case you didn't know, the reason government exists in North Carolina is to grow. Their business model is to make more "profits" at any cost. They see this as "investing" money in the state which will result in more money for the state. The fact that there's zero risk and all money obtained by the state was taken by force doesn't seem to matter to anyone in this case.

If this were a free state, businesses would be free to do research and compete against one another. But the Democrats who rule North Carolina are not interested in freedom -- only in increasing and expanding government at literally any cost -- after all, it's not their money they're spending.

Amazingly, a judge actually overruled another judge who wanted to take all freedom away from a family -- at least temporarily. I'm actually very shocked and amazed -- but this in only a temporary granting of freedom -- there's a new trial date set for August 16th.

I hope that Virginia Attorney General Robert McDonnell's brief supporting the family and freedom IN OPPOSITION TO the state helped in this case. Good job, Mr. McDonnell.

But enemies of freedom (CPS and others), fear not! Those who want to force this unwanted medical treatment on a person who will violently resist until restrained and who want his parents jailed have not yet given up! Carl Bundick and his anti-freedom Nazis with "child protective services" are looking forward to a new "trial" to allow them to forcibly "cure the boy of cancer" -- no matter the cost, no matter what the person wants.

This one isn't over yet.

This case is another example of how difficult it is to fight socialism and the left in America today. This is the case, you may have heard of it, regarding Abraham Cherrix. He is being told that he will be taken by the sheriff with force and strapped down to a table and injected with drugs against his will. And no, he hasn't even come close to committing a crime.

Why would the state do this? Because Abraham is "only" 16 and the state knows better how to treat him than he and his family does. You see, Abraham is sick. No, it's not a sickness that's contagious and could affect others, it's cancer. Jay and his family want to treat his sickness as they desire. However, the state in it's infinite wisdom, is determined the treat him against his will.

If this were just one person, the judge, he could be shot and this would be over with. But it's not just one judge. The entire bureaucracy of social services is lining up to crush Abraham's freedom. There's actually a hearing today to determine if the judge will order the police to take this boy into custody so they can forcibly medicate him. Any sheriff who obeys this judge's order is just as guilty as the judge.

Social services, for those who don't know them, are basically evil. They exist to destroy people in order to obtain federal funding. Sure occasionally they do something good, but like the ACLU, they do 1000 evil acts for each good act.

Will this lead to an "Elian Gonzalez?" It's sounding like it will so far. The gestapo, I mean social service agent has already threatened Abraham's parents that they will forcibly break into his house and take Abraham by force. Abraham's father asked the agent,

What will you do with my little boy? Will you take him somewhere and strap him down and put duct tape on his mouth and pump full of this stuff if he doesn't want it?

No, I will come to your house with a uniformed officer, and I will take your son by force if he resists. And I will take him to somebody who will do that.

So, how do you stop this horrible injustice? The ONLY way is a majority force of arms. The judge is ordering police to seize this child. The police will obey him. The only way to stop the judge and the police is to resist. In this case, with violence. Yes, it really has come to this point.

And yes, if they do resist, they will certainly be killed. You see, there's more policemen than there are arms in Abraham's house. And sure, the police will claim they were just following the judge's orders -- need I remind you that the Nazi guards were just following orders, too?

Every resistance has to begin somewhere.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

-- Thomas Jefferson

1 That's outrageous! This kind of thing is only supposed to happen in Marxist states -- I'd add Nazis, except they no longer have a country (officially), wherein the govt usurps parents' authority to raise their children according to their own standards. I'll say it again, I'm so glad I've passed the half century mark, I have the feeling that the young people of today are in for a nasty ride...

2 It just absolutely baffles the mind of a person who loves freedom. To those who support the state in place of freedom, I'm sure this makes sense. I'm just amazed there are so many people in this specific instance that openly support the judge, social services, and the police.

7 Reading more about this, I see that the family appears to be committed to non-violent resistance. I think the family will end up in jail and Abraham will be sedated and medicated "for his own good." Sad days, these are.

8 This happens ALL the time. In every state. Esp. Utah where the Mormons are against medical treatments that involve certain drugs and blood products. Usually these cases involve little kids who by law aren't allowed to speak for themselves. This 16 yr has spoken though and he doesn't want the treatments. His wishes should be respected. I'm surprised the medical people will force this upon him: THAT would be assault and battery under Patient Rights Laws.

Posted by: Raven at July 25, 2006 11:58 PM (MZe2s)

9 Again, when the medical people do that, they're joining in the coalition AGAINST freedom. It's what makes fighting the socialists SO hard. If this case ends up with forced medication, who is to blame? Who has crushed freedom? The judge, the department of social services, the sheriff's department, and the entire medical department that participates. How does one fight so many at one time?

I just got an email from an editor of City Journal. Apparently it's been around for awhile, but I've never heard of it. Perhaps I should get out more often. Glancing at the headlines, it looks interesting. Have a read and tell me if you like this, or let me know if it's the most hated journal you've ever read. Here's some headlines from it:

Theodore Dalrymple on the "Terrorists Among Us," explaining how itÂ’s not just Islam, but the tension between Islam and Western modernity, that makes them tick.

Sol Stern on the growing movement to teach for “social justice” in public schools and ed schools: Sol shows how it perpetuates a cruel hoax on disadvantaged kids

Kay S. Hymowitz in the hilarious "Desperate Grandmas" describes how narcissistic feminists, now sexagenarians, are still seeking the Best Sex Ever!

Steven Malanga's moving "The Last Full Measure" pays tribute to the monuments honoring the 9/11 dead that have sprung up throughout New York commuter towns--Steve's photos are included.

Heather Mac Donald explains why the NYPD--now fighting terror as well as crime--is still America's best police force:

And former Hollywood screenwriter Gerry Garibaldi, now teaching in a public school in Connecticut, tells what he's learned about how the schools shortchange boys.
