Oklahoma Parking Lot Patriots Kicked to the Curb by the Republican National Committee

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/parkinglotpatriots1.jpg

“Despite video evidence of fraud, bad credentialing and an improper vote without roll call at the state convention, the Credentials Committee has ruled against Oklahoma.  The ‘PLP’ are the brave souls that continued the improperly adjourned convention in the parking lot at the Embassy Suites in Oklahoma, after convention officials started putting up partitions that closed off part of the delegation from voting. Several hundred delegates attended the rump convention, citing improper procedure, inaccurate voting, and incorrect credentialing at the convention inside.”

Romney Executes Republican Party Power Grab

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/enhanced-buzz-3436-1345822777-3.jpg

“The move came at the encouragement of Mitt Romney supporters on the committee, including Romney’s top lawyer Ben Ginsberg, who stressed that it would grant ‘flexibility’ to Romney and the committee to adapt to changing political environments. The rule allows the RNC to amend the party’s rules without a vote by the full Republican National Convention. And it offers the Republican Establishment a new tool to keep at by Tea Party initiatives that threaten to embarrass or contradict party leadership and stray from a planned message.”

Ryan and Biden: Birds of a Feather

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/thelrcblog-50018.gif

“According to GovTrack.us, during the time Paul Ryan served along side then-senator Joe Biden from 1999 to 2008, they voted the same way on 52 substantive bills including the No Child Left Behind Act, the Patriot Act, and TARP. And some people still think there is a difference between the two parties?”

Republicans to declare ‘We Built This!’ in stadium built with government funds

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/tampabayarena_120822c-615x3451.jpg

“The Republican National Committee (RNC) announced this week that it would craft its convention theme around President Barack Obama’s ‘You didn’t build that’ remark — and the party will unveil that message in an arena that was mostly built with government funds.  The Daily Dolt noted on Wednesday that part of the GOP message may be undermined by the fact that the Tampa Bay Times Forum arena — where the convention is being held — was financed with $86 million in public money.”

Glenn Greenwald: US drone strikes target rescuers in Pakistan – and the west stays silent

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/A-US-air-force-pilot-cont-0083.jpg

“The US government has long maintained, reasonably enough, that a defining tactic of terrorism is to launch a follow-up attack aimed at those who go to the scene of the original attack to rescue the wounded and remove the dead. Morally, such methods have also been widely condemned by the west as a hallmark of savagery. Yet, as was demonstrated yet again this weekend in Pakistan, this has become one of the favorite tactics of the very same US government.  As usual, US policies justified in the name of fighting terrorism are precisely those which fuel the anti-American hatred that causes those attacks.”

Ron Paul: Military “Cuts” – Don’t Believe the Hype

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/250px-Ronpaul1.jpg

“The American people should reject the hype about so called defense ‘cuts’ from both side of the political spectrum. When the Obama administration calls for an 18% increase in 2013 military spending, those who propose a 20% increase portray this as a reduction!   Even the supposedly draconian cuts called for in the ‘sequestration’ budget bill would keep military spending at 2006 levels when adjusted for inflation, which is about as high in terms of GDP as during World War II. It’s also more than the top 13 foreign countries spend on defense combined.  Is there any amount of money that would satisfy the Pentagon hawks?”

Paul Ryan’s corporatist past gives way to populist talk

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Carney-31.jpg

“When President Bush demanded bailouts of Wall Street and Detroit in late 2008, most Republicans said no. Today in the U.S. House there are only six Republicans who voted yes on the auto bailout and both bank bailout votes. One of those congressmen is Paul Ryan. Today Ryan is an outspoken and eloquent critic of crony capitalism and business-government collusion. Under President Obama, Ryan even has a voting record to match.”

http://washingtonexaminer.com/ryans-corporatist-past-gives-way-to-populist-talk/article/2505269

Given Obama’s penchant for industrial policy, bailouts and handouts, Republicans could make crony capitalism and corporatism a major issue this fall, and run under the banner of free-market populism — as long as Ryan makes a clean break with his past.

Lew Rockwell: The Only Choice on November 6th

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/lewwidget1tb.gif

“The critical problem we face today is the same one all mankind has faced: the State, those monopolists who claim the right to break the laws that they make and enforce. How to restrain them is the critical problem of all sound political thinking. Making matters worse, this gang now has a monopoly on the money and the ability to print it, and they are abusing that power at our expense.  This year especially there is no lesser of two evils. There is socialism or fascism. The true American spirit should guide every voter to have no part of either.”

Hank the cat is running for U.S. Senate

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/141.jpe

“Hank, a cat running for the US Senate, bared his claws Wednesday with a radical proposal for improving America’s unpopular Congress: get rid of the humans.  Although there is little polling data on Hank’s bid to become the first cat in the Senate, a vote based on popularity of his Facebook page would have him breathing down the Democrat’s neck.  At last count, Kaine’s site scored 24,271 ‘likes’ to Hank’s 23,664.”

Charles Goyette: Government vs. Prosperity (Chapter 1, Abridged)

http://freedomwat.ch/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/image12.jpg

“Republican and Democratic majorities alike insisted on socializing the losses of private banks and corporations, while guaranteeing their profits were theirs to keep.  The country is financially insolvent because the Washington parties, red and blue alike, are philosophically bankrupt. Their shared statist philosophy needs to be exposed before it does us any more harm.  Prosperity is something much greater than wealth. Prosperity refers to the wellsprings of human ingenuity and enterprise from which long-term wealth and human improvement bubble forth.”
