A Visiting Ex-Rhodesian On Collectivism, The Dangers We Face, And How We CanTriumph

I have had an interesting visitor from South Africa. He owns the website "African Crisis," and has written a book called "Government by Deception" about the Communist takeover of Rhodesia, where he lived. He and many other Rhodesians fled the country and now he lives in S.A. I wrote some of the things he told us here Visiting America Part I. Like a modern de Tocqueville, he observed many things about common Americans and their land. He stayed with the people and ate with them rather than getting hotels or eating out, and also broadcast on a few radio stations.

CONFIRMED: Psychiatric Manual DSM-IV-TR Labels Free Thinkers, Non Conformers As Mentally Ill

Manual Labels Free Thinkers as Mentally Ill

"It is now confirmed by USWGO News that the DSM-IV-TR Manual labels free thinkers, non conformers, civil disobedient advocates, those that question authority, and people considered hostile toward the government (aka Oath keepers and local militias) as mentally ill with the illness titled “oppositional defiant disorder” or ODD."

No Compromises, Congress

"A loud and clear message should be sent to all newly elected Reps in DC at the beginning of the new congress to the effect that there will be no tolerance for compromise among true conservatives. And furthermore, all compromises of the past must be rescinded. Nothing short of constitutional restoration and restraints on government will be acceptable and anything short of that will bring about another groundswell of dissatisfaction in the worst sort of manner."

We saw what compromise got us in the Late Unpleasantness.

Shelton Book A Humdinger

"Shelton says he liked former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfield personally, but he says he was arrogant, would not listen to military advice and was responsible for a flawed Iraq war plan, 'a fiasco.'

“There was absolutely no link between (Saddam,) and 9/11,” Shelton writes.

He accuses Bush of 'intentionally deceiving the American people.'

He is critical of the Central Intelligence Agency. He writes John McCain has 'a screw loose.' He has no use for Al Gore, which gives Shelton credibility with me.

He tells of attempts to kill bin Laden that were rejected by our State Department.

I found the story about Clinton’s aides losing the 'biscuit' funny to me, but misplacing the nuclear launch codes is not amusing.

Another story is about a senior Clinton official who proposed letting Iraq shot down a low-flying Air Force U-2. You got to love Shelton’s response."

JONES URGES CONGRESS TO EXPEDITE AIR CARGO SAFETY BILL

WASHINGTON, D.C.Today U.S. Congressman Walter B. Jones (NC-3) encouraged his fellow Members of Congress to expedite H.R. 6275, the Air Cargo Security Act of 2010. Congressman Jones is one of two cosponsors of the bill, which was introduced in September of this year by Rep. Edward Markey (MA-7). The bill aims to amend title 49 of the United States code to improve air cargo security. Currently the bill sits in committee for a length of time to be determined by Speaker Nancy Pelosi..

“In light of today’s security threat involving cargo planes, the importance of this bill has become very apparent,” said Jones. “We must be proactive when it comes to homeland security and I urge Speaker Pelosi to move forward with this imperative piece of legislation.”

The Air Cargo Security Act of 2010 states that through the Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security (Transportation Security Administration) each airport in the United States that serves passengers will establish and operate Federal air cargo screening centers for the screening of cargo transported on passenger aircraft operated by an air carrier or foreign air carrier in air transportation or intrastate air transportation.

The Reason The Left HatesThe 2nd Amendment

The strongest reason for their aversion to gun rights isn't "gun violence," or the supposed threat of "right wing terrorism"........it's that they believe that a strong-willed, vigilant citizenry, prepared to say "No!" to government excess, and equipped to back that denial up, is right now impeding the "progressive" agenda.

Aww and rightly so.

12 Polls That Prove That The American People Are Really, Really Pissed Off As Election Day 2010 Approaches

Patriot Post
"Those who bought Ford stock in February 2009 are happy they did. The stock closed that day at $1.58, and as of this writing it's at $14.41. General Motors stock went down 74 percent between February and the end of May 2009, when trading was suspended and GM declared the biggest industrial insolvency in U.S. history. GM stock reemerged under the humiliating name 'Motors Liquidation Co.' and peaked at 93 cents in August 2009. It now trades for 27 cents."

"The American people are mad. No, check that, they are steaming mad. In the weeks leading up to the election, poll after poll after poll has shown that the American people are angrier at government than at any other point in modern U.S. history. American voters have been angry before, but this time it is different. Instead of being mad at just one political party, the American people are now clearly disgusted with both political parties. "

My Favorite Short-Range Scope

Oleg Volk
"Just got another 1-4x scope mount. Can't beat it for the money. Given it's continued survival on my friend's .450 Marlin bolt gun, it should do just fine on 5.56/6.8/.308 AR15 types."

Our Latest Interview With The White House Insider

"I will not support Barack Obama in 2012. That possibility has left the table for me. Based on what I know, what I have been told, what I have seen in recent weeks…no, I cannot support the President for a second term. My concern for the party, for the country…my conscience does not allow me that option any longer. Obama is not fit to be president. He simply does not possess the inclinations necessary to lead the country."

PART TWO AVAILABLE NOW: “President Obama is Lost. Absolutely Lost.”
"The word is out there – President Obama is in real trouble. They may not have the specifics, but the story of a big scandal coming is circulating now within the party – both parties. So why put your own political career on the line supporting a president who is facing such a fiasco? Simple – they won’t. And so you are seeing the separation happening. The party itself is starting to separate itself from the president. You ever watch those nature programs where the herd doesn’t hang out with the sick one? You got that poor sick antelope or whatever standing all by itself and when it tries to join back with the herd they run away from it? They’ll even attack it themselves if they have to. That’s what happens in politics. If you are in real trouble, the others separate from you. That is what is happening to the president right now.

(Long pause)

And the lions are starting to gather…"
