“[State controlled] education is a weapon, whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.” – Joseph Stalin

 

 

"[I]f you serve a child a rotten hamburger in America, federal, state, and local agencies will investigate you, summon you, close you down, whatever.  But if you provide a child with a rotten education, nothing happens, except that you're liable to be given more money to do it with."

--Ronald Reagan

 

“Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” - Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870-1924)

 

 

The District of Columbia deserves the gratitude of taxpayers everywhere for giving the nation a lesson in governance. It is proving that spending more on public schools is a waste of money. – Terence Jeffrey

 

Labor Day, Sports          By Theresa Camoriano

Labor Day – Traditionally, Labor Day has been the day when people promoted socialism and Marxism and the “workers’ paradise” of communism.  Nobody uses those terms anymore, because we all know that socialism, Marxism and communism have all been disastrous failures – producing not a paradise but rather a hell on earth.  However, politicians still keep pushing the same socialist/Marxist agenda using different terminology, still exploiting people’s jealousy and greed in order to obtain political power.        (click to read more)

 

North American Union deniers: Ignorant, or deceitful?           by Henry Lamb

There is a difference between stupid and ignorant. The talking heads at Fox News are not stupid. But the three guests on Brit Hume's Tuesday night telecast who snickered at the "conspiracy nuts" who are concerned about the emergence of a North American Union (NAU) are either ignorant, or deceitful. Here's the question: Is the NAU fact, or fiction?         (click to read more)

 

Robert Stinnett and "Day of Deceit"          By Gordon Francis Corbett

Please read "Day of Deceit," liberal historian Robert Stinnett's book about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

The Cost of Freedom and Why it is Worth it           By Jeff “Mario” Smith, Guerilla Reporter

Attached herein is an email I received which originated at the computer of LTC Stephen J. Bouffard, one of our latest Gold Star Fathers in the War Against Terror. I am a military Dad and I am tuned in to the military family at large so I receive these emails all too often. It is never pleasant to deal with the loss of another in our military family, and it never gets easier. I have attended countless military funerals, many for men I did not even know, but respect beyond words.         (click to read more)

 

Florida Property Tax Woes         By Richard Charles Antolinez

The signers of the Declaration of Independence will never be forgotten.  What they risked wasn’t less than their very lives.  The result is all around us.  It is the greatest nation on God’s green earth.

The Thirteenth Amendment (ratified December 1865) freed the slaves; the Fourteenth (July 1868), made them citizens; and the Fifteenth (February 1870) gave them – the men, at least – the right to vote and to take part in the affairs of government.          (click to read more)

 

The Threat of Islamic Extremists           From a Reader via India – Source not confirmed

A man, whose family was a part of German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward fanaticism.         (click to read more)

 

An Expose of “Blackwater”, a Book Written With a Leftist Agenda           By Jeff “Mario” Smith,  Guerilla Reporter

Reading is an excellent pastime, surely much better than watching the television, a dumbing down mechanism if ever there was one. Entertainment is a multi-billion dollar industry in this country and much of it is used as a tool of propaganda. I give you Michael Moore, Sean Penn, Oliver Stone, Rob Reiner, and George Cloony as some perfect examples of entertainment as propaganda.        (click to read more)

 

"Freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp. 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 doctor's fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We can't socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business. If some among you fear taking a stand because you are afraid of reprisals from customers, clients, or even government, recognize that you are just feeding the crocodile hoping he'll eat you last." ---Ronald Reagan

Whenever the minimum wage is raised, there are victims and those victims are the people who are the most marginal members of society, the people without work experience, the young, those who are likely to be discriminated against. – Father Robert Sirico

Free State Project

Truth is on our side. Right is on our side. And I believe time is on our side. Call me Pollyanna if you will, but I see signs of change. The immigration battle shows people are alert. It has awakened that sleeping giant. – Tom DeWeese

The two notions--one to regulate things by a committee of control, and the other to let things regulate themselves by the conflict of interests between free men--are diametrically opposed; and the former is corrupting to free institutions, because men who are taught to expect Government inspectors to come and take care of them lose all true education in liberty. — William Graham Sumner, What Social Classes Owe to Each Other [1883]

 

 

Under democracy one party always devotes its energies to trying to prove that the other party is unfit to rule — and both commonly succeed and are right. — H.L. Mencken
