Woodrow Wilson won the election of 1916 because he campaigned on a platform of peace. He had kept us out of war. On April 2, 1917, he asked Congress for a declaration of war against Germany. The Senate voted to go to war on April 4. It took until April 6 for the House of […]

Paul Ryan, whose commitment to Ayn Rand’s philosophy of limited government is every bit as firm as Alan Greenspan’s was, has announced the following: “If We Don’t Pass My Bill, ‘The System Is Going to Collapse.’” Casting his ObamaCare replacement bill as the only chance to save America from a complete health-care collapse, Speaker Paul […]

My friend and former business manager John Mauldin has become an economist. I hate to see this. He is a good analyst. He is a good commentator on business trends. His site is a veritable clearing house of insights of famous market analysts. But now he has wandered astray. He has become an economist. His […]

Recently, someone interviewed Ron Paul. The interview covered a lot of ground. This caught my attention: Hopefully I can energize young people, a new generation, to say that the role of government has to be different than this.

I don’t talk a lot about Obama, since he is mostly a cipher. I did not talk much about Clinton, either, for the same reason. They are both talkers. But when it came to making their agendas clear, and then passing them into law, they accomplished little. What did Clinton ever do that we remember? […]

The New World Order brigade suffered a major defeat yesterday: a 302-126 defeat of a key provision of ObamaTrade. That torpedoed the fast track for the TPP: the Trans Pacific Partnership. The TPP is the culmination of the agenda of the Trilateral Commission, founded in 1973. The Trilateral Commission was named for the three world […]

Batteries? Electric cars? We’re paying for them. Ah, free enterprise! Where has it gone? Even a puff piece trying to minimize this admits that it’s true. It just says “everyone does it.” Everyone doesn’t do it. The elite do it. Click the link.

Neocons in the Senate are furious. Rand Paul last week filibustered the NSA’s eavesdropping program into at least temporary oblivion. It sank into the sunset on Sunday night. It had to be renewed before midnight. It wasn’t. The NSA saw it coming. On Sunday afternoon, it pulled the order from America’s phone companies to supply […]

This video is excellent on how the special interests buy votes in Congress, and then collect billions of dollars worth of favors. Their return on investment (ROI) is sensational. Meanwhile, voters have no influence. The statistics are here: What’s that? You say were not told this in your high school civics class? Imagine that!
