Free kibbles

RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS:

BATF promotes three supervisors responsible for the operation fast and furious fiasco. Only government.

ECONOMY:

Obama wants everybody to be equally poor, and he's making it happen.

REGULATION:

SEC busted for destroying files to protect its big Wall Street partners at the height of the financial crisis. This is an important reminder that government always works for the rich and powerful against the people. And that only makes sense. How could the poor control the levers of power over the rich? It's not possible. Government is always the tool of the rich and powerful to loot the people and protect them from the people they loot, and it can never be any other way.

China deregulates Hong Kong, further increasing its economic freedom so it can become a stronger engine for wealth creation and prosperity. It's outrageous that Americans are enabling the burden of government to grow and take our economy and us down the drain while the supposedly communist Chinese advance economic freedom and enjoy ever greater prosperity as a result.

FEDERAL RESERVE:

After Rick Perry did his best impression of Ron Paul, adding a bunch of fake Texas charm, by attacking Bernanke and the Fed, he admits his Bilderberg financeers lectured him about challenging the Fed. He followed the marching orders he was given and toned down his criticism.


HEALTH CARE:

Detroit public schools to push government food on every student under the guise of not hurting the feelings of poor children. Government is driving another wedge between parents and children and making children more unhealthy so big-Agra, big-Pharma and big-Med can get richer and so the politicians can control more of our money and skim off the top.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

Michelle Bachmann shows her ignorance of economics and politics by promising to reduce gas prices to below $2 a gallon. Maybe I'm being hard on her. Maybe she isn't being stupid but a liar. Supply of oil is pretty rigid. Demand determines prices. Sure, opening up more places for drilling will lower prices, but not as much as demand. If the US economy is growing, gas prices will be high. If the Fed is printing money, gas prices will be high. The only way to keep gas prices low is put the economy into the dumper and stop printing money, and those things are mutually exclusive in our political system.

POLICE STATE:

The danger of trying to secure against lone wolf terrorists is that as far as government is concerned, every individual is a suspect. I have a better plan: dramatically reduce the size and scope of government so people won't be so pissed at government they get violent.

POLITICS:

Another reason to support Ron Paul:
"From Ron Paul’s Statement of Faith: "My faith is a deeply private issue to me, and I don’t speak on it in great detail during my speeches because I want to avoid any appearance of exploiting it for political gain.""
Thank goodness at least one candidate feels this way.

Rick Perry enjoys a double-digit lead over Romney, but that's only because he just entered the race and did it with a splash. The novelty will wear off and he will suffer from attacks. The same poll shows Paul at 9 percent, still in single digits. But he's been steadily rising. If he can get into double digits, maybe this baloney about him being unelectable will fade and he can take off.

Ron Paul mocks Rick Perry with class. Ron Paul is class act. That's probably his biggest weakness.

Obama's approval rating on the economy falls to 26 percent. I guess Warren Buffet and Obama's Wall Street cronies make up the 26 percent.

MISC:

Thomas Sowell points to black flash mob violence as an example of behavior differences between blacks and other Americans that lead to more blacks being arrested and unemployed.

Super scrabble players have brains more adept at pattern matching for words than other people. What else would you expect? Scientists would think they're wonderful for discovering people need air to breath.

I don't want to hear about the NCAA maybe giving Miami the death penalty. I want to hear about the American people giving the NCAA the death penalty. The NCAA creates the conditions that promote all this outrageous behavior of student-athletes. If there was a free market for college athletes, this stuff would be almost unheard of. They'd focus on their game so they could make more money instead of doing all this wild stuff. And they would be better prepared for life and the NFL to boot. The ones who put hedonism above work ethic would be washed out.
