Vote Well or Not At All, Let Me Introduce Gary Johnson

Vote well or not at all. From the Libertarian Patriot. This is Gary Johnson. http://www.thelibertarianpatriot.com/2012/05/majority-of-americans-agree-with-gary.html

This Is How A Society Self Destructs- The Sunday Collage

Have you ever heard of the "butterfly" effect or chaos theory? I was first introduced to the chaos theory (believe it or not) as a result of mathematical calculations as they related to horse racing. As different types of horses with different running styles were introduced into a race- the race scenario was subject to change. For example, a race with 3 or 4 "need the lead" front running type horses inevitably means that a closer, or a horse with energy in reserve- will come late and run by all four of the tiring and worn out front runners as each expends it's energy trying to get the lead. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_theory I found that it was sometimes quite possible to predict a given outcome. Out of chaos, comes order. However, it was still seemingly impossible with any certainty, to determine each race's winner. That is because of the chaos theory. Hundreds, maybe thousands of things, are at play in any given race scenario. Weather, track varia

When Words Fail

I had a tough week this week. All of the usual lying, cheating, and manipulating was going on and I just couldn't bring myself to write about any of it. I didn't give a shit that JP Morgan, the FED's shill, lost two billion. I don't care if somebody wants to breast feed until they are 30. Gold and silver took a beating- erasing nearly all of my gains since I began buying the stuff. Well silver, anyway. So... I bought more. Seventy ounces more. One oz. of gold. I had to upgrade my safety deposit box to a larger one. I converted a Ford F-250 to about 4 pounds worth of precious metals.   Have you ever noticed how Yahoo has attracted some of the dumbest commenters on the planet? Go to a Yahoo message board and read what they write. I am in awe. It's as though the Yahoo homepage is only viewable from within the confines of an aluminum sheathed trailer house. I even picked one comment out for special consideration midweek. There is nothing more alluring than a Y

Media Propaganda Now Reporting Monthly Budget Surplus

Wow. Those of us who owe taxes and thus file as late as possible in April of each year- cause a one month budget surplus. The media shouts this from the roof tops. Why? They leave you to draw your own conclusions. http://money.cnn.com/2012/05/10/news/economy/budget-deficit/index.htm?iid=Lead

Feds Find Time To Sue Sheriff, Unable To Find Time To Perform Their Jobs

Wow. Hey, let's sue a guy for doing his job. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/47363994/ns/us_news-crime_and_courts/ In the meantime we will continue to allow illegal aliens to over run our borders, kill citizens including ICE Agent Brian Terry and do nothing about it. And of course- there isn't anything you can do about it sheeple. Try suing us.

Old Cops Meet To Talk Shit and Overthrow the Government

Well, mostly to talk shit. Last month, I got a call inviting me to the retired police officers luncheon in Twin Falls on Thursday. Once in awhile I get some porn from a few of these guys. Occasionally there is talk about women but most of us do not remember why we ever liked them. I am often puzzled at the mention of women. Mostly there will be talk about motorcycles, fishing and boats, and guns- and what we are doing for money. We will probably talk about people who died and uplifting shit like that. These are the kinds of things I remember discussing with these guys. I am not particularly thrilled that they have this deal at some retirement home. But since this will be my first trip, I am gonna reserve judgment and pray like hell I don't end up having to resuscitate anybody. If I do, I am opting for chest compressions. I will give you the 411 update after we have solved all of the world's problems.

Government Can't Even Make a Decision On Reducing Useless Postal Service

I am not sure that anything illustrates the worthlessness of our government more than the United States Postal Service. The agency is bleeding billions a year, yet our government cannot bring itself to make any kind of decision to shutter post offices or layoff staff. http://news.yahoo.com/postal-keep-rural-post-offices-open-140355580--finance.html The internet has absolutely killed mail volume. Imagine a business that not only has lost all of it's core business- but has absolutely no prospects moving forward. Closing post offices and laying off staff is an absolute no brainer- yet our Congress cannot bring itself to make a decision. This is our government and if you can't find a reason to hate this leviathan yet- this is a very good place to start. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/bailout-postal-service-begins-cost-taxpayers-110000-vote-saved-or-gained

Government Manufactures More Security BS

So this morning, after watching falling oil and gold prices, I was reading various pieces of mainstream media half truths. The media is the conduit the government uses to convey how wisely they are using our money. If you want to read an absolutely worthless article about a "threat" of some sort- please see this attached link. It is chock full of details. Ha! http://news.yahoo.com/bomb-threat-halts-2-southwest-airlines-flights-060654675.html I always wondered what would happen with TSA once Bin Laden was killed. What excuse would they use to keep funding that 50,000 person TSA army? There you have it. Our government. Never missing an opportunity to provide an all you can eat- bullshit buffet.

This Is Harvard

This does not bode well for the rest of us. I snipped this from Ace of Spades HQ. From the New York Times: When the biologist Daniel Lieberman suggested in a public lecture at Harvard this past February that exercise for everyone should be mandated by law, the audience applauded, the Harvard Gazette reported. Not even a more-in-sadness-than-anger resignation to the idea that freedom must be abolished -- no, they're positively giddy about it! They would strip the freedoms away from Americans to vindicate a busybody impulse to slim people down? If they're willing to jettison freedom over so trivial a reason -- what reason wouldn't justify ending the American birthright of freedom? Very often, I have talked at great length about liberals and moonbats- that would be those who attend Harvard- and how they are willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater. This is our best and our brightest? This is how they think. They would have exercise mandated by

The Grand Deception

Eighty eight million people have dropped out of the labor force. That is a full quarter of our entire population. So with eighty eight million people out of work, who is buying all of those vacant homes, consumer durables, cars, and gasoline? Answer- nobody. All of those people out of work and all of the "new" crappy service jobs that pay less with no benefits- are now showing up in tax collections. The IRS and the GAO have been receiving far less in taxes than originally projected. About 1.3 trillion. They call that the deficit. So today I read this mainstream media piece of garbage which is so emblematic of our times. It is propaganda. Lies. At the very best, I will call it an opinion which is not based in fact. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/no-repeating-slowdown-seen-u-141158084.html?l=1 So here is how the grand deception works. The media, particularly in an election year, is going to spin every single economic news item in the best possible light- so that they c

The Sunday Collage- The Big Picture

It's been a busy week and I haven't posted much. I apologize. I noticed something very odd earlier this week and I've been thinking about it for several days. It is the inability of people, often, to make decisions or choices while considering the larger picture. Understanding the consequences. Seeing the big picture and adjusting your decisions accordingly- is important. Sadly, our society, permanently fixated on immediate gratification, no longer sees the big picture. All that matters is some superficial fix that will work immediately. If there is a larger picture solution that is better, it is often discarded in favor of a solution that offers immediate relief. That is the world we live in. Long term, this propensity that we have for immediate gratification, often offers us long term negative consequences. So what I would like to do here is to frame my subject. The subject is abortion. What I am not interested in writing about is fear based religious bullshit, poli
