"I've tried the moral argument, I've tried the constitutional argument on these issues, and they don't go so well. But there is an economic argument as well. Matter of fact, Al-Qaeda has had a plan to boggle us down in the Middle East and bankrupt this country. That's exactly what they're doing. We've spend four trillion dollars of debt in these last ten years being bogged in the Middle East. The neoconservatives, who now want us to be in Syria, want us to go to Iran and have another war. And we don't have the money. Today, gasoline hit $6 a gallon in Florida. And we don't have the money, so I don't believe I'm going to get the conversion on the moral and constitutional arguments in the near future, but I tell you what, I'm going to win this argument for economic reasons. . . .We're destroying our currency, we have a financial crisis on our hands."Dr. Paul is telling the truth, while every politician around him, especially President Obama, is lying through their teeth about the threat that Iran poses to Israel, the United States, and the world.

Get Behind Ron Paul To Stop Iran War
K-98 Rifles from Classic
This is a great shop to deal with.
* K-98 Rifles and Such
Here is the deal
We had originally intended to list all the K-98 rifles here and send out as an e-mail to all of you who are reading this.
Unfortunately, it just would not work. The e-mail service that we use to send these e-blast is just not structured to handle the number of pictures and the volumne of written information that we include with our K-98 listings. It was a good plan in theory, but it simply would not work in reality.
So - Here is what we are going to do.
Tomorrow, Friday the 24th, We will be posting a list of K-98 rifles on our website in a place that no one else will know to look.
Our Contact Info/Terms and Conditions page on our site has less traffic than any other page. Hardly anyone ever goes there.
For that reason this is where we will be hiding these rifles.
So- -Friday at 12:00 noon E.S.T. Go to our site
Scroll down past all of the boring stuff about terms and conditions yada, yada yada.... At 12:00 noon a group of K-98 rifles will magically appear and we will stand ready to take your orders.
Either use the Link above or go to our Classicfirearms.com home page and select our terms and condition page... The K-98's will be listed after a break in the text, at the bottom of the page.
DOJ dismisses leniency request for Border Patrol agent
Months after Rep. Duncan Hunter asked the Justice Department to consider leniency for Border Patrol Agent Jesus E. Diaz Jr., who was convicted of using excessive force in arresting an illegal immigrant, the Obama administration has brushed that request.
In October and again in November, Mr. Hunter, a California Republican, asked the Justice Department to forgo collecting a court-imposed fine until after Diaz is released from prison, saying his family would have to struggle to make the payments.
In two short letters sent Feb. 13, Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich responded, dismissing Mr. Hunter's request and saying "the case against Mr. Diaz was fully litigated in federal court." Mr. Weich also sent Mr. Hunter the press release the department issued when the judgment was handed down. Mr. Hunter's office made the letters public this week.
In a statement, Mr. Hunter said the replies were an "embarrassment."

Super-fit mother graduates from Army boot camp at age of FIFTY ONE with higher score than recruits less than half her age
A 51-year-old woman has outperformed recruits less than half her age after graduating from U.S. Army Basic Combat Training with one of the highest physical fitness test scores in her company.
Army Sergeant Sandra Coast, who had to lose 30lbs just to qualify, achieved better scores than both her male and female peers, who have an average age of 23.
Indeed, they are closer in age to her son, Jeff, himself in the U. S. Marine Corps, than they are to her.
This didn't stop her from pitting herself against them though.
Her first sergeant, Army 1st Sgt John Byars said: 'I was impressed, because she can do everything the younger soldiers do. She never expected us to feel sorry for her...
'She is a prime example that age is just a number. She ran faster than soldiers young enough to be her kids.'
Foreign Invaders And Occupiers: This Time, We Are The Indians
I am not so sure.
I am confident that the Iroquois Confederacy did not consider themselves ‘foreign belligerents’, especially vis a vis the British Royalists and the British/newly-American Rebels.
The Iroquois understood that they were in an existential war, and fought accordingly.
So did their foes.
The last group of educated, moral, restrained gentlemen to fight on this continent against a vicious, no-holds-barred, by-any-means-necessary superior force surrendered in Virginia, North Carolina, and the Deep South in April and May of 1865.
What Ron Paul’s Detractors Reveal
Dr. Paul knows the Constitution. He has studied it. He has read what America’s Founding Fathers and framers have written about the Constitution. He has studied the enlightenment philosophers, theologians, and teachers–you know, the same ones that Thomas Jefferson and James Madison studied. He knows that the reason America is in the mess it is in today is because the Constitution has been abandoned. And he also knows that the only way to fix it (politically) is to return to constitutional governance.
Therefore, when Dr. Paul talks about drugs, foreign policy, military adventurism, or even social issues, he does so from a constitutional point of reference. And the Constitution is clear when it comes to these matters. Domestic drug laws are the exclusive responsibility of the states–as is virtually every other law enforcement matter. Foreign entanglements, empire building, turning our military personnel into the world’s policemen, etc., are all anathema to constitutional government. And the longer our political leaders continue to ignore the Constitution, the more America will continue to slide down this slippery slope in which we now find ourselves.
Ron Paul’s position on these matters is in historical agreement with America’s Founding Fathers and the US Constitution.The American Revolution of 2012

This is the hour for the Tea Party and other organizations to rise up in mass protests of their own. All who are wedded to constitutional principles and ideals must take an even stronger stand, opposing with all their might those who seek to hijack our government by violent and extra-constitutional means.
The fate of our country may lie in the balance.

GOA Another Obama Nominee Confirmed to the Bench
Last week, we alerted you to a radical anti-gun nominee President Obama named to the federal bench, Jesse Furman.
To no one’s surprise, Furman is cut from the same judicial cloth as other Obama nominees such as Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan.
For instance, in an article published a number of years ago—but from which Furman has not distanced himself—he writes that: “Probably the best explanation for the amount of violent crime in the United States is its fascination with guns.”
GOA members flooded the Senate with emails, and many Senators voted against Furman. But Majority Leader Harry Reid kept every single Democrat in lock-step with the Obama agenda, and Furman was confirmed to a lifetime appointment to the bench on a vote of 62-34.
Republicans Jon Kyl and John McCain (AZ), Bob Corker and Lamar Alexander (TN), Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe (ME), Jeff Sessions (AL), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Scott Brown (MA), and Lindsey Graham (SC) joined all Democrats in voting for Furman. (Need to go.)
This vote serves to highlight the difficulty in protecting the courts from anti-Second Amendment nominees who come before the Congress. Obama will continue to nominate far left gun grabbers, and Harry Reid will be his go-to guy for confirmation votes.
And if Obama wins a second term, his agenda will become only more brazen. That’s why a top goal of GOA in 2012 is to help elect as many truly pro-gun friends as we can to the U.S. Senate.
It is crucial that Harry Reid does not retain the gavel next year. But it is not enough to just elect members of the opposing party. We need to elect strong candidates who understand the Constitution and who will not bow to pressure from the White House—whoever the occupant may be—or from the leadership of either party in the Congress.
Thank you for standing with GOA as we fight these battles on a daily basis.
