How To Destroy America

"Government is not a solution to our problem[s],
government is the problem." -- Ronald Reagan

It's Time to Worry about Global COOLING

"...an utterly corrupt new religion called environmentalism..."

If the history of this planet's climate over millions of years is any guide, we are about to enter a new ice age.

CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper indicated in a 1993 interview with the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he wants to see the United States become a Muslim country.

Judge renders 'short-sighted' decision on pint-sized predator
By Bob Sagan (05/27/06)

It was another case of an inmate taking over the asylum when a Nebraska judge last week sentenced a 5-foot-1 man to probation instead of a possible 10 years behind bars for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl.

Giving new definition to the term “short-sighted,” Cheyenne County District Judge Kristine Cecava ruled that the diminutive Richard W. Thompson was too small to serve in state prison. She sentenced the 50-year-old to 10 years probation, only the first four months of which will he be electronically monitored.

The cockamamie decision sends the wrong message to those who are “height-challenged,” and suggests some controversial and disturbing scenarios. Is the Judge’s decision precedence for prosecuting future wee wrongdoers? Have there now been legal standards established for “shortening” the stay of pint-sized perpetrators already in the slammer?

A Nebraska prison system spokesman has said Thompson’s physical stature would not have put him at any greater risk among the state’s inmates; that there are policies in place to protect him should he feel so threatened.

In the aftermath, a 12-year-old victim has been sentenced to a lifetime of having to cope with something no child should have to live with. And some activist judge has once again decided that the criminal should be protected from society – rather than the other way around.

Perhaps Judge Cecava should have re-visited the lyrics from Randy Newman’s song, “Short People.”

"Mexico, Canada partnership underway with no authorization from Congress"

The United States Is Being Overthrown By Our Politicians - "A silent but all-reaching coup is taking place within the United States. This coup is not being directed by bomb-laden Muslim terrorists, nor will it ever be covered by the mainstream media. The seditious act is being carried out by our very own elected officials, with President Bush leading the insurrection."

"The FDA has conveniently used the excuse of looking out for consumer safety to increase their perverse regulatory power, undermine free speech, disrupt commerce, and generally get in the way of helping people improve their health. The "half-truth" of the safety issue is used as a ploy to reduce the rights of Americans, one freedom at a time. Once again, the FDA is seeking more police power to intimidate supplement companies. This is one step in an overall FDA master plan to eliminate therapeutic nutritional supplements from the free market. Those who lose are the American public." The FDA - A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
