The global warming is coming down thick around here… and in MARCH, in Tennessee. This is just not cool!

This is with the flash so you can see the snow coming down:

And now without the flash:

Unbelievable!

An Oklahoma City police officer wrongly pulled over a man last week and confiscated an anti-President Barack Obama sign the man had on his vehicle.

And of course I’m not surprised, but it’s still so hard to get my head around just how much money this really is! We’re not talking about spending my money any more, or my son’s money. I don’t even think we’re spending my son’s, son’s money at this point. They’re spending money so far into the future I’m not sure which generation’s money they are spending! It isn’t just bad, it’s 100% WRONG! It’s complete and utter foolishness and even downright wicked!

Here’s a couple of choice quotes. First up, House GOP Leader John Boehner of Ohio:

With a price tag of more than $1 trillion when you factor in interest, it costs every family almost $10,000 in added debt. This is an act of generational theft that our children and grandchildren will be paying for far into the future.

And John McCain:

This measure is not bipartisan. It contains much that is not stimulative and is nothing short—nothing short—of generational theft since it burdens future generations with so much debt.

It’s as if most people don’t realize that at some point, someone has to pay the piper!

Oh, and here’s a cool website about Porkulus!

Edit: It’s too bad McCain didn’t feel that way about Bush’s Stimulus package!!!

The current problems we are facing today in the United States go back much further than most people, even “conservatives” believe. Even further back than The Federal Reserve!

I don’t know whether it’s the actual starting place, but many things were certainly set in motion as the result of the Civil War.

Allow me to repost here, a very good little blurb from Iron Ink:

Lincoln And Freedom?

For the most part Lincoln worshipers don’t realize that the Great Emancipator suspended the writ of habeas corpus – arresting and imprisoning tens of thousands of people on the slightest suspicion. Thousands of those people were imprisoned for four years without ever knowing what the charge against them was. Lincoln authorized expenditures from the treasury without congressional approval and in the face of a warning from his Treasury Secretary that such greenback printing was unconstitutional, printed the infamous Lincoln greenbacks anyway. Lincoln ordered conscription, which the Chief Justice of the Supreme court believed was unconstitutional. Lincoln closed countless newspapers and jailed opposition editors. This is closely chronicled in “Lincoln’s Warth; Fierce Mobs, Brilliant Scoundrels and a President’s Mission to Destroy the Press.” Lincoln ordered martial law in states where local courts claimed jurisdiction. This martial law had the effect of driving Northern opposition from their homes and from the States where martial law was in force. Lincoln deported a member of Congress, Clement L. Vallandhigham of Ohio, because of his outspoken opposition to the Lincoln administration.

It has to be one of the great ironies of American history that the tyrant Lincoln is remembered as the man who brought freedom. Even the Emancipation Proclamation was a mockery of the idea of freedom for in the Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln freed the slaves who were beyond the ability of the North to enforce Lincoln’s edict while leaving the slaves in bondage who were in border states controlled by the Union.

The freedom that Lincoln achieved was the freedom of the state to exercise its will at the expense of the citizenry.
