“With iPods and iPads and Xboxes and PlayStations, — none of which I know how to work — information becomes a distraction, a diversion, a form of entertainment, rather than a tool of empowerment, rather than the means of emancipation,” Barack Obama, May 9, 2010.
“Things have changed in the last 26 years, but McCain hasn’t. He admits he still doesn’t know how to use a computer, can’t send an e-mail.” – Barack Obama, September 12, 2008 on John McCain suggesting he is out of touch.

Chicago teachers, disgraceful and disgusting
You have to wonder about the level of education of people like this lady. No wonder Illinois is in trouble. The parasites are out in full force:
a willing relinquishment of power is one of those things which human nature never was, nor ever will be, capable of.
Will the oppressor let go the oppressed? Was there ever an instance? Can the annals of mankind exhibit one single example where rulers overcharged with power willingly let go the oppressed, though solicited and requested most earnestly? … Sometimes, the oppressed have got loose by one of those bloody struggles that desolate a country but a willing relinquishment of power is one of those things which human nature never was, nor ever will be, capable of.
Patrick Henry
in Jonathan Elliot, ed., ‘The Debates of the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution’, (New York, Burt Franklin: 1888 ), 3:51-52.
Census as racial profiling
Reid: ‘Men, when they’re out of work, tend to become abusive’
Racist Senator Harry Reid applied for membership in the “sexist” club yesterday when he said: “Men, when they’re out of work, tend to become abusive.”
Kennedy calls Martha Coakley, Marcia Coakley throughout remarks
“we need to get Marcia Coakley to help him to do that.” – Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-RI) January 17, 2010
The Kennedy’s are really aware of what is happening in Massachusetts.
AT&T asked to comment on its Privacy Policy
We have asked AT&T to comment on its privacy policy. Specifically we asked:
1. Why doesn’t AT&T verify email addresses it sends emails to?
2. Why does AT&T not provide a link in the emails it sends out to allow “good samaritans” to report that AT&T is sending someone else’s records to them?
3. Why don’t AT&T customer service representatives take calls letting them know that they are sending information to the wrong addresses?
4. Why do AT&T representatives state that they do not care whether AT&T emails are republished?
Specifically, as recounted previously AT&T has sent us information for various AT&T customers and each time has been rude and unhelpful when we go to report them.
January 20, 2010: AT&T did not respond for comments on its privacy policy, but did ask for a copy of the most recent email regarding Mordecai Alpert’s account. On a humorous note, AT&T did BEGIN sending us account statements for Richard Schweitzer, without any means of reporting it, so, Mr Richard Schweitzer, you can get your account information on-line:

Maria Shriver gets another ticket and runs a stop sign.
Maria Shriver gets another ticket and runs a stop sign. Do as I say, not as I do is the operative phrase of the group of people who want to control the rest of us for their own benefit. Real illustrative. Thank you TMZ for publicizing the continuing illegal behavior of those who want to regulate our freedom away.
There are two types of leaders in this world. Those who lead by incentive, and those who lead by force.
There are two types of leaders in this world. Those who lead by incentive, and those who lead by force. Those who lead by incentive will offer you a salary to come and work for them, those who lead by force will throw you in jail if you do not pick up a gun and fight for them.
