IN GOD WE TRUST - LIBERTY - E PLUIBUS UNUM Libertyyourchoice.blogspot Contact me at: rmcs85a@gmail A person is always liable for his actions, whether awake or asleep. – Babylonioan Talmud Maybe the president should visit Alaska: He can’t quite see a credible Russia policy form his house. NR One who gives charity in secret is greater than Moses. –Babylonian Talmlud Whoever saves one life, it is as if he saved the entire world. –Mishna Sanhedrin 4:5 In every age the advocates of the dominant political theory seek to give it dignity by identifying it with whatever contemporaneous desire of man happens to be most powerful. In the days of monarch, monarchy was depicted as the defender of the faith. In our present era of democracy, democracy is depicted as the only safe guardian of liberty. And the communism or super-communism of tomorrow, I suppose, will be sold to the booboisie as the only true palladium of peace, justice and plenty. All of these attempts to hook up cause and effect are nonsensical; Monarchy was fundamentally not a defended of the faith at all, but a rival and enemy to the faith. Democracy does not promote liberty; it diminishes and destroys liberty. And communism, as the example of Russia already shows, is not a fountain that gushes peace, justice and plenty, but a sewer in which they are drowned. – H.L. Menchken, Governmental Theories, 1922. Columnist Burt Prelutsky: It just strikes me that if you cant even produce a viable website, youre on very shaky ground when it comes to trying to screw around with the worlds weather. In 2008, when Obama boasted that his energy policy would send energy costs skyrocketing -- and still got elected -- I assumed most people thought he was joshing. And when, as president, he unleashed the dogs of the EPA on the coal industry, I assumed most people sloughed it off as strictly between him and the folks in those coal mining states. But when he was re-elected last year, even carrying some of those very states, it merely convinced me that a lot of people cant chew gum and vote at the same time. Coal is responsible for 40% of our energy. If a foreign power had somehow deprived us of our coal supply, we would have gone to war with them. Well, not Obama, of course, but all our other commanders-in-chief would have. Hell, Obama wouldnt have gone to war over Pearl Harbor. The Gipper: Are you willing to spend time studying the issues, making yourself aware, and then conveying that information to family and friends? Will you resist the temptation to get a government handout for your community? Realize that the doctors fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We cant socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business. Columnist Peggy Noonan: The most obvious Ukraine point has to do with American foreign policy in the sixth year of the Obama era. Not being George W. Bush is not a foreign policy. Not invading countries is not a foreign policy. Wishing to demonstrate your sophistication by announcing you are unencumbered by the false historical narratives of the past is not a foreign policy. Assuming the world will be nice if were not militarist is not a foreign policy. What is our foreign policy? Disliking global warming?
