“In order for collectivists (socialists, progressives, fascists,
communists, etc.) to check their morality, they need only remove
government as the intermediary of their programs. When they are
exposed as clubbing other people for “charity,” housing rights,
medical rights, job rights and all the other rights inimical to
the right to self-ownership, property, and the liberty to use it,
their brute force will lay naked for all to see. That they rely
on government agents to do their mugging for them is an indication
of their bravery. At least union members do not hesitate to
threaten or use force, but they too often rely on paid goons.”
~ Bill Holmes, libertarian activist (1948-2011)

Kobe Bryant: Well, we’ve progressed as a society, then don’t jump to somebody’s defense just because they’re African-American. You sit and you listen to the facts just like you would in any other situation, right?
According to Colorlines.com Kobe stated:
“I won’t react to something just because I’m supposed to, because I’m an African-American,” he said. “That argument doesn’t make any sense to me. So we want to advance as a society and a culture, but, say, if something happens to an African-American we immediately come to his defense? Yet you want to talk about how far we’ve progressed as a society? Well, we’ve progressed as a society, then don’t jump to somebody’s defense just because they’re African-American. You sit and you listen to the facts just like you would in any other situation, right? So I won’t assert myself.”
They continue:
The profile goes on to quote former NFL running back Jim Brown, who at one point said, “[Kobe] is somewhat confused about culture, because he was brought up in another country.” Bryant then defended himself on Twitter, writing, “A ‘Global’ African American is an inferior shade to ‘American’ African American?? #hmmm. that doesn’t sound very #Mandela or #DrKing sir.”
Obama can’t spell RESPECT, spells it RSPECT
President Obama can’t spell RESPECT, and spelled it RSPECT. After his pronunciation of “Corpse Man” for corpsman among other problems. I guess the teleprompter was out.

I don’t want to live in a society that does these sort of things…”Once you go on the network, I can identify your machine. You will never be safe whatever protections you put in place.
- ‘I do not expect to see home again’…
- ‘I don’t want to live in a society that does these sort of things’
- ‘I believed in Obama’s promises’
- ‘Presidents openly lie to secure the office’
- ‘Government has granted itself power it is not entitled to’
- ‘Whenever we had a debate in the office on how to handle crimes, they do not defend due process – they defend decisive action. They say it is better to kick someone out of a plane than let these people have a day in court. It is an authoritarian mindset in general.’

How Spammers can bypass SpamCop’s rules
Spammers need to keep finding ways to get past the spam filters. One way to do this and in the process hurt SpamCop users is to disguise your spam. Various methods exist to do this, but one that has an extra benefit is to make your spam look like a bill. People come to your web site or have to phone you to get removed from your mailing list. Both of which increase name recognition or contact with a potential customer.
Even better, SpamCop’s admins may view these as not spam since “they look like an unpaid bill” resulting in warnings for SpamCop users. This is just want spammers want – cause extra work for SpamCop and get SpamCop users warned about reporting something that is spam, but doesn’t look like it. Even better, since it looks like a bill and it requires effort to determine that it is not, you may not have to include an unsubscribe link so you can require people to call in to be removed, giving you an opening to sell to them.
You don’t even have to get the person’s name right – Jim Smith is as good as John Smith for admins at SpamCop who do not pay attention.

As long as you think we have to police the world and run this welfare state, all we will argue about is who will get the loot.

Democrat Senator Al Franken “I just don’t like homosexuals,”… “I was glad when that Pudding homosexual got killed.”
“It’s not preppies, ‘cause I’m a preppie myself. I just don’t like homosexuals. If you ask me, they’re all homosexuals in the Pudding. Hey, I was glad when that Pudding homosexual got killed in Philadelphia.” – Democrat Senator Al Franken
Mr. Franken, a 1973 graduate of Harvard, was referring to Harvard’s Hasty Pudding theatrical club. The hate coming from the Left is crazy. Who cares about skin color or sexual orientation?

Roberts ought to resign. – Eastman
“If the assumption is right, that he thinks was unconstitutional but found a way to uphold it to preserve the integrity of the court, then he really ought to resign because it proves he doesn’t have the judicial fortitude to do the job that he’s been chosen to do.” Law professor John Eastman June 29, 2012
