What government is good at is: collecting taxes, taking away our freedoms, and killing people. It’s not good at much else. ~ Tom Clancy

Should President Obama be willing to print a $1 trillion platinum coin if Republicans try to force America into default? Yes, absolutely. Paul Krugman January 7, 2013
Should President Obama be willing to print a $1 trillion platinum coin if Republicans try to force America into default? Yes, absolutely. Paul Krugman January 7, 2013
The fact that Krugman won the Nobel Prize in Economics and would make a statement like this says a lot about the lack of value in the Nobel prize and the intellect of Krugman. Talk about a farce.
Whenever you hear people talking about “a living Constitution,” almost invariably they are people who are in the process of slowly killing it…Sowell
From Thomas Sowell:
Whenever you hear people talking about “a living Constitution,”
almost invariably they are people who are in the process of
slowly killing it by “interpreting” its restrictions on government
out of existence.Do either Barack Obama or his followers have any idea how many
countries during the 20th century set out to “spread the wealth”
— and ended up spreading poverty instead? At some point, you
have to turn from rhetoric, theories and ideologies to facts.I am so old that I can remember when liberals were liberal — instead
of being intolerant of anything and anybody that is not politically
correct.If you truly believe in the brotherhood of man, then you must
believe that blacks are just as capable of being racists as
whites are.One of the most foolish, and most dangerous, things one can
do is to take love for granted, instead of nurturing it and
safeguarding it as the prize jewel of one’s life.
The people who make wars, the people who reduce their fellows to slavery, the people who kill and torture and tell lies in the name of their sacred causes, the really evil people in a word…Aldous Huxley
“The people who make wars, the people who reduce their fellows to slavery,
the people who kill and torture and tell lies in the name of their sacred causes,
the really evil people in a word — these are never the publicans and the sinners.
No, they’re the virtuous, respectable men, who have the finest feelings, the best
brains, the noblest ideals.” — Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) English writer
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.

You don’t ever want to be defined by the color of your skin. You want to be defined by your work ethic
“For me, you don’t ever want to be defined by the color of your skin. You want to be defined by your work ethic, the person that you are, your character, your personality. That’s what I’ve tried to go out and do. I am an African-American in America. That will never change. But I don’t have to be defined by that.’” Robert Griffin III, December 12, 2012
I don’t care what the majority voted to do, they don’t have a right to steal my money just because they vote for it
First of all, I’m in the top two percent. Right now, I’m paying 45% of my total income in income taxes, both to the state of Connecticut and to the federal government, and if you take the 3% Medicare tax. After the tax hikes go into effect next year, more than half — more than half of my total income is going to go to the government. You tell me, what’s fair about that when medieval serfs pay 25%, I’m paying half? I don’t care what the majority voted to do, they don’t have a right to steal my money just because they vote for it. ..You know what the wealthy are going to do? They’re going to invest more abroad, they’re not going to work as hard, they’re not going to pay as much in taxes, they’re not going to employ as many people. They’re employees are going to pay all the taxes. Peter Schiff, December 10, 2012

Good nature is the very air of a good mind…
Good nature is the very air of a good mind,
the sign of a large and generous soul, and
the peculiar soil in which virtue prospers.~ Godfrey Goodman, Anglican bishop (1582-1656)
