1937. A store in a Minnesota logging "bust town."
Executive orders and unelected regulators - Where the law is subject to some other authority and has none of its own, the collapse of the state is not far off.
Plato
Above the law -
Obama is prepared to provide millions of illegal immigrants living in
the U.S. work authorization via executive orders, plunging America into
third world status awash in so-called refugees... Obama’s La Raza
connected goons are giddy over the prospect... If Obama succeeds, the
free America we have always known will no longer exist. He has three
years to do even more damage and trust me, he will. We have elected a
stone-cold Marxist and he is permanently solidifying control for the
Marxists in the US in perpetuum.

The real illegal alien flood is on its way
- It's about to get worse. Entire villages are emptying out and coming
from Central America through Mexico to the United States. They'll be
hitting in the next couple weeks. What you are seeing right now is the
tip of the iceberg.

Mass deaths from lack of free contraceptives
- Sandra Fluke was the first to expire. Before her death at New York
Presbyterian, she hoarsely whispered: "I wanted only to continue having
sex the same number of times I did in law school, while studying for the
Law Boards - just 25-30 times a month. Was it too much to ask that my
$8,000 a summer contraceptive Jones be taken care of by that lousy
school I was slaving away at?" Carefully pulling the covers over Fluke's
flushed and deranged face, her physician confided, "She hardly had a
chance, once the Court removed her health choice. There was nothing
medical science could do."

The multi-billion dollar boondoggle
Call it what you will—taxes, penalties, fees,
fines, regulations, tariffs, tickets, permits, surcharges, tolls, asset
forfeitures, foreclosures, etc.—but the only word that truly describes
the constant bilking of the American taxpayer by the government and its
corporate partners is theft. What Americans don’t seem to comprehend is
that if the government can arbitrarily take away your property, without
your having much say about it, you have no true rights. You’re nothing
more than a serf or a slave, says John Whitehead in this article, The Stealing of America by the Cops, the Courts, the Corporations and Congress, at The Rutherford Institute.
How we got it wrong on fats
Milk, cheese, butter, cream—in fact all saturated
fats—are bad for you. Or so I believed ever since my days as a medical
student nearly 30 years ago. During that time I assured friends and
family that saturated fat would clog their arteries as surely as lard
down a drain. So, too, would it make them pile on the pounds. Recently,
however, I have been forced to do a U-turn. It is time to apologise for
all that useless advice I've been dishing out about fat, says Dr.
Michael Mosley in this article, I was wrong - we should be feasting on FAT, at the Daily Mail.
Hillary and the Secret Service
- Because she is so nasty to agents and hostile to law enforcement
officers and military officers in general, agents consider being
assigned to her detail a form of punishment.

Federal offense -
The only federal charge ever made against Dillinger was that he drove a
stolen car across a state line (the sheriff's car he stole when making
his escape from the jail at Crown Point, Indiana and driving it into
Illinois), and it was upon that charge alone that Hoover made Dillinger
Public Enemy Number One—simply because he was getting more publicity in
1934 than was Hoover and his FBI.

Liberal logic - If we make guns illegal, then nobody will get shot anymore. That's how we stopped everybody from doing drugs.

The Mexican fifth column - The U.S. Constitution,
in Article 4, Section 4, still mandates that the executive
branch—President Barack Obama—must protect the states against invasion.
Instead of protecting the states from invasion, our rogue president and
his gangster henchmen are now intentionally and with forethought laying
open our national borders, and are encouraging and assisting the
invaders. How is this not treason?

Are Teachers Underpaid? Let’s Find Out
- If teachers believe they aren't making what they're worth, and they
may well be right about that, let's free them from union constraints and
let them find out what the job market has to offer. Until then we can't
really know. Because a bachelor's degree isn't a dispensation from the
vagaries of economic reality. And teaching isn't the first step towards
sainthood. Regardless of what you've heard.
