"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction."
– Proverbs 1:7
I think what we have going on in the modern world is what this verse is talking about. We have knowledge of how thinks work, but that does not imply that we have wisdom. In fact we have strayed so far from the wisdom that God gave us in the Bible and the founders provided for us in their writing and our constitution that it pains me to see were we are going as a nation. We live in a world to lazy to read the great books of history. Aristole, Plato, Adam Smith, and the bible to name a few. All of western civilazation is built on the foundations that these books layed. I going to put a list on here soon of the great books of western civilization.

Die, Global Warming, Die! (Good Read)
Alan Caruba
By Alan Caruba Wednesday, May 6, 2009
Ever since the “global warming” lie began, for at least two decades or more, I have been writing about what a huge hoax it was and is. For all that time I believed that if the truth got out and reached enough people, they would conclude it was a lie.
The entire credibility of major so-called environmental organizations and institutions such as the United Nations rests on whether there ever was a greater than natural warming cycle; one that would cause harm to the world. Patiently I pointed out that the most recent natural warming cycle had begun around 1850 following a lengthy little ice age of some five hundred years duration. In the United States, despite all the braying about warmest years and such, the height of the warming cycle appears to have been in the 1930s, causing havoc among farmers, particularly in the Midwest. In 1998, meteorologists and climatologists began to take note of a cooling cycle. It has been gaining momentum since then. Yes, the Earth is cooling, not warming. Despite this, the White House and the U.S. Congress—at least its Democrats—have been telling everyone that, because of global warming, the United States government must impose draconian regulations and restrictions on “greenhouse gas” emissions, by which they primarily mean carbon dioxide (CO2). The claim, utterly false, is that CO2 is “forcing” a warming that will kill us all if we don’t reduce energy and other emissions. The utterly vile politicians advancing this—I will not name them because the very act causes nausea—had better begin to pay some attention to public opinion on the subject because the Gallup, Zogby and Rasmussen polling organizations all are reporting that large majorities of people no longer believe their lies. In a recent edition of U.S. News & World Report, one of the three weekly newsmagazines, all of whom have slavishly repeated lies about global warming, Paul Bedard who writes “Washington Whispers” risked employment by reporting that Al Gore’s vast, self-enriching campaign to advance the lies about global warming is losing out to the truth. “They have failed,” said Gallup Poll editor, Frank Newport. “Any measure that we look at shows Al Gore’s losing at the moment. The public is just not that concerned.” Turns out that people are more concerned about the economy. And well they should be given the insanity being perpetrated by the White House and Congress. If there is a God in Heaven, there has to be a huge backlash in the 2010 midterm elections. As Newport points out, “some 41% believe global warming claims are exaggerated,” adding “that’s the highest we’ve seen.” Zogby and Rasmussen report comparable results, give or take some percentage points. Zogby asked people what they thought of the “cap-and-trade” legislation that would regulate CO2 emissions and got the following results: Support 30% Oppose 57% Not sure 13%. In late April, Rasmussen reported that, “Just one-out-of-three voters (34%) now believe global warming is caused by human activity, the lowest finding yet in Rasmussen Reports national surveying. However, a plurality (48%) of the Political Class believes humans are to blame.” The “Political Class” is the enemy. They are the scoundrels that stand to line their pockets by investing in companies that will benefit from “cap-and-trade” and Obama’s lies about “clean energy.” They are buying into solar and wind energy companies that are receiving billions in federal subsidies and grants. Anybody who invested in ethanol production has already lost their shirt. The Waxman-Markey Climate Bill should make of their names the equivalent of Benedict Arnold because both are advancing legislation that would destroy the nation’s economy. The bill requires the nation to reduce its CO2 emissions by 2050 by 82% below current levels. That means a vast reduction in energy use, i.e. coal, natural gas, and oil. Why would they advocate reducing emissions to avoid a global warming that is not happening? Why are so many in Congress wedded to this hoax? And will Americans permit them to get away with this? Instead of doing everything possible to encourage energy companies to find and extract the energy reserves the United States requires to function and grow, the White House and Congress is doing everything in its power to restrict energy use. Die, global warming, die! If this greatest hoax does not die, the United States will be forced to commit economic suicide.

Montana fucking rocks
Montana Defies Feds on Guns, Ammo, Silencers and Other Accessories
Published by Colin May 7, 2009 in Current Events. Tags: campaign for liberty, federal, gun rights, guns, montana, napolitano, second ammendment, silencer.
I was quite impressed that the words were finally articulated by Judge Andrew Napolitano at Campaign For Liberty’s rally in St. Louis in March regarding the second amendment:
If a politician tells you that he’s in favour of the Second Amendment because he’s a hunter - he is no friend of the Second Amendment. Here is the dirty little secret of the Second Amendment that you never learned in public schools. The Second Amendment was written to give you the right to shoot at the government when it becomes a tyranny.
Now the Democratic governor of Montana has signed into law an incredible attempt to erode the power of the Federal Government as it applies to gun laws. Let me just lay it out from the bill:
A personal firearm, a firearm accessory, or ammunition that is manufactured commercially or privately in Montana and that remains within the borders of Montana is not subject to federal law or federal regulation, including registration, under the authority of congress to regulate interstate commerce...
What this functionally means is that items that the federal government loves to regulate and prohibit: handguns, silencers, ammunition, scopes and so on - would be perfectly legal in Montana and exempt from requirements to engage the Federal framework of registration.
Montana’s argument is sound - those items which are made in Montana for use in Montana are not being involved in “interstate commerce.” That small clause of the constitution which lies at the heart of many federal laws, including drug laws, alcohol laws, transportation laws and firearms laws among other things is being directly challenged by this legislation.
Attempts like this with medical marijuana have promoted Federal officials to react by performing armed raids of citizens in California, for example. Aside from the aggression on behalf of the federal agents - these confrontations generally were non-violent. However a very different scenario is now set up in Montana.
Gun loving people in the state are going to take advantage of this law. They are going to buy silencers, ammunition and guns - and a percentage of these are going to be willing to put Judge Napolitano’s words into action. A federal raid on gun-loving, moderately anti-government individuals may very well result in violence.
Unfortunately, this is the inevitable result of an aggressively growing central government that has run out of external enemies to prosecute. Those enemies of the state begin to be revealed from within. Average people, who merely want to keep the means to defend themselves or even exercise their rights of bearing arms may risk violent interaction with Federal agents in Montana.
(this has been coming for a long time, there has never been a nation as large and diverse as ours that has not broken down, see the USSR, Bosnia and countless others, we will one day split into smallers fractions, some with the intent of confiscating property and personal rights and others that protect and die for the rights the founders professed. We will eventually tell the feds to fuck off)

Obama is a crazy Tyrant (Read This)
Business Insider reports that more than one Chrysler senior creditor has corroborated Thomas Lauria’s allegation that the Obama administration threatened them with public attacks if they didn’t surrender their contractual rights. One of their sources says that the Obama team comprises some of the worst “ends justify the means” people he’s ever encountered (via HA reader Geoff A):
Creditors to Chrysler describe negotiations with the company and the Obama administration as “a farce,” saying the administration was bent on forcing their hands using hardball tactics and threats.
Conversations with administration officials left them expecting that they would be politically targeted, two participants in the negotiations said. …
The sources, who represent creditors to Chrysler, say were taken aback by the hardball tactics that the Obama administration employed to cajole them into acquiescing to plans to restructure Chrysler. One person said described the administration as the most shocking “end justifies the means” group they have ever encountered. Another characterized Obama was “the most dangerous smooth talker on the planet- and I knew Kissinger.” Both were voters for Obama in the last election.
One participant in negotiations said that the administration’s tactic was to present what one described as a “madman theory of the presidency” in which the President is someone to be feared because he was willing to do anything to get his way. The person said this threat was taken very seriously by his firm.
This guy is like a child that does not get his way. He thinks that he is above the law. He is literally acting like a dictator. This makes me sick. We now have a megalomaniac as the president. If you don't do what I tell you, I will take you out. This is scary shit. He is threatening a private citizen, what a fucking peace of shit. This is no different than what lead to the Magna Carta(the great charter of freedom)1215. If you don't know what it is you need to study it. Basically the Magna Carta was a document that British nobels and Barons made the King John the Edward sign saying that the King is not above the law. Well Obama is acting like he is above the law, do we need a new Magna Carta since our supreme law the constitution is being shredded?

The first 100 Days or so of the Obama Kingship
So let's make a list's of the achievements of the first 100 Days of the Obama Administration.
1. The largest budget in the history of the United States. That is twice the size of the last budget of Bill Clinton. It is 25% of the GDP of the United States.
2. He cut 17 billion dollars from the budget for 2009(.05 percent). The problem is that he doubled the size of the budget. But they are good cuts, the f22 raptor and enlistment bonuses for the armed forces.
3. He signed a executive order that ordered the government to pay for embryonic stem research. The problem here is that there have been no cures from it, not one. Adult stem cells have provided over thirty types of genetic therapy's.
4. He will not talk or take part in the national day of prayer.
5. The FDIC is seriously underfunded. 13.6 billion of assets back up 4.7 Trillion of banking loans.
6. The terror flight over New York. What a stupid stunt, ignorant and expensive (380,000.00)
7. Threatening bond holders with the white house press core. The first point is that the president is no more than a extortionists. But the second thing that should truly concern you is that he thinks that the press core will do what he says. They are suppose to report the news, investigate the powerful and give a non-biased view. They are involved in the messiah worship of Obama. This is truly scary.
8. His pushing of the fairness doctrine behind the scenes through the house and senate and the changes in the appointment to the FCC.
9. The push for cap and trade taxes on businesses to the tune of 636 Billion dollars. Did you read that 636 billion dollars. That is another 3000.00 dollars a yr in taxes on the average family. The government never creates wealth they just tax it from one source and redistribute it to another group. It is all ways a waste of money, the government does not know how to make money. See Amtrak, post office, Fannie Mae Freddie Mac and every other thing the government has gotten into.
10. The worst thing that i have seen so far is the breaking of the constitution limits on the authority of the executive branch. He is trying to influence the courts to change payout structure of the bankruptcy code. He is unduly wielding his power to influence and control an autonomous branch of the government. That is scary. Does he think that he is the King. It would appear so.
I will add to the list as I think about it more. He is literally wiping his ass with the Constitution. We are a nation of laws, not of men. We do not have a king and for good reasons.

Told you so (Fasicst)
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Barack Obama is revelling in presidential power and influence unseen in Washington for decades. Barely 100 days in office, the U.S. president and his Democratic Party have firm control over the White House and Congress and the ability to push through ambitious plans. Now, with the coming retirement of a Supreme Court justice clearing the way for him to appoint a successor, Obama already is assured a legacy at the top of all three branches of government -- executive, legislative and judicial.
Surprise the undercover socialist, wait never mind the admitted liberal socialist has decided he likes power so much that he will pass many more laws trying to steal money from hard working people and redistributing (giving to lazy ass clowns and teen age moms) it to poor people (future democratic voters and welfare recipients). I think that is it.
On the corporate front, the federal government's pumping of billions of dollars in bailout money into banks and auto companies has given Obama the power to force an overhaul in those industries, a remarkable intervention in capitalist industries by the state.
I think I remember writing about this last week, oh yeah, now I remember. Fascism - definition: totalitarian philosophy of government that glorifies the state and nation and assigns to the state control over every aspect of national life(would this include business, I think It would). The name was first used by the party started by Benito Mussolini , who ruled Italy from 1922 until the Italian defeat in World War II. However, it has also been applied to similar ideologies in other countries, e.g., to National Socialism in Germany and to the regime of Francisco Franco in Spain.)
Old but proves my point.
