Free kibbles

FREEDOM OF SPEECH:

Russia and China are pushing to have the UN seize control of the internet. All governments hate free speech, so they all hate the internet.

SOCIALISM:

After Indiana passed right-to-work legislation, Ohio is now considering it. This is one of those government created solutions to a government created problem. The problem is that government gave unions the power of coercion. The government prohibits businesses from firing striking workers. The solution should be to take away that power of coercion and restore the voluntary labor market. In that environment, if a business agrees that it will only hire union workers, so be it.

TAX AND SPEND:

Obama claims that Romney and Santorum would increase the deficit. While that seems like the pot calling the kettle black, he might be right. Both will increase spending much like Obama, and our economy will continue to decline.

New Greek government bailout boosts the euro and the stock market, but it's just more wasted money, making Europe's sovereign debt and euro crisis worse.

HEALTH CARE:

The AMA wants government to forcibly vaccinate people.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

Global warming pseudo-scientists admit they are political activists.

Peter Glick used as a scapegoat by the global warming frauds.

POLICE STATE:

Guess what happens when we allow government to put chips in our passports? When the chips break, the government refuses to allow travel.
" The claim has been made that breaking the chip in the passport shows that you disrespect the privilege of owning a passport, and that the airport was justified in denying this child from using the passport."
Disrespect the privilege... We're the stupidest people who ever lived. Our children - prisoners in a slave state - will spit on our graves.

FOREIGN POLICY:

Iranian government reportedly rejects demands of IAEA. The more I read about this, the more I realize how easy it is for politicians to manipulate the media and therefore the people. For example, every time the IAEA puts out a a hundred page or more report, the media trumpets the five page political summary which never reflects the facts in the report. Who among us will read the hundred or more page report? What reporter will? Now we have no idea what the IAEA demands were, but the media leads us to believe they were perfectly reasonable and that the Iranian government has something to hide. I wonder if the IAEA made demands to inspect US government nuclear facilities if the US government would agree. I doubt it would.

POLITICS:

Obama taps his corrupt Chicago machine comrades for money.

Santorum wants to use the government to fight Satan. Santorum boasts of stealing people's money to fund Planned Parenthood on Greta Van Susteren. Here's text documentation. In this case, his rhetoric and his votes match. In the past Santorum explained he had been pro-choice until he ran for Congress. It appears the corrupting effect of government was very thorough on Santorum.

The Kennedys never stop stealing our money.

Ron Paul has a billionaire supporter too.

MEDIA:

Because of the ubiquitous corruption in the Republican primaries, Ron Paul Super PAC unveils smartphone app to empower supporters to conduct exit polls, video and publish to compete with establishment reporters.
"Revolution PAC will broadcast the results in real time as part of its “Boycott the Mainstream Media” initiative, which will be streamed live throughout the day during the Arizona and Michigan primaries."
This is an awesome idea.

LOCAL:

Begging incidents up 400 percent in Centerville. God forbid Ohio's and Dayton's economic problems show up in Centerville. Maybe the beggars discovered the people in Centerville had more money than those in Dayton.
"Centerville Police information officer Matt Dunn said the department received a total of four complaints about panhandling in the city between July 2010 and July 2011. “Since then, we’ve had 17.”"
OMG. Call in the National Guard. I can see why this is such an important article for the DCP.

MISC:

Hackers force privacy centric search engine offline. I hope they don't do the same to DuckDuckGo.

Spurs to retire Bruce Bowen's number. Wow. I doubt a defender like Bowen, who was fantastic, ever got an honor like this. The Spurs are on top their division. They're 13-1 at home, and they're 9-1 in their last 10. But all the talking heads and the media people want to talk about is Jeremy Lin and the Knicks. I understand while people talk about the Yankees. They win. They win often. They win over and over. But the Knicks suck. They've sucked for a decade. They were mediocre for decades before then except for a couple of years when they won the championship. But the size of the market is all that matters in the NBA. The Knicks have the biggest market in the NBA, so the league and the media will do everything in their power to promote them. Meanwhile, San Antonio continues to kick butt. On the flip-side, the Spurs had the best record in their history last year, but they got swept out of the playoffs by the Grizzlies. So what they're doing now doesn't mean much. Unless, I hope, they're holding the trophy at the end of the playoffs.
