I’ve just finished watching a two-hour video dedicated to the proposition that world events are being controlled by an elite few concentrated in the shadow land of international banking and finance. The ultimate goal of these obscure modern-day king makers is nothing short of world domination. The phrase “new world order,” captured on the lips [...]

The Falkland Islands War, fought by Argentina and Great Britain in 1982, resulted in the death of nearly 1,000 combatants from both nations. The war solved nothing, changed little, and was started for no good reason. If that sounds familiar, it should. History is strewn with examples of senseless wars and less devastating diversions begun [...]

California is losing residents faster than any other state in the Union, according to The Associated Press. “From 2007 to 2008,” writes AP correspondent Stephen Ohlemacher, “California had the biggest net loss of people moving to other states — more than 144,000 people, according to population estimates released Monday by the Census Bureau.” The focus [...]

Ron Paul on the bailout and overall financial crisis. Well worth a listen.
The federal government is mismanaging the current financial crisis. Operating according to long-established patterns of bureaucratic bullheadedness, Congress and the President are borrowing money in the hopes of solving a problem caused by too much borrowing.

Two British comedians had it right about Bear Sterns and the subprime crisis far earlier than did Henry Paulson. But be warned; watching the following video, recorded in 2007, reveals just how badly we’ve been snookered. These chaps are absolutely brilliant…
Declan McCullagh of CNET NEWS vividly lays out the atrocious bailout legislation rammed down our throats just [...]

The video is worth watching if you want to catch Barack Obama in his biggest lie this week:
Drunk with power, bursting with hubris, and overcome by the irresistible lure of controlling mind-boggling amounts of money, the President, both Presidential candidates, 74 Senators, and 263 Representatives have pulled off the biggest money grab in our nation’s history. This largest single [...]

While the great bulk of financial leaders are clamoring for a massive bailout of our tottering monetary system, some are taking a difference stance. One such dissenter is Jeffrey A. Miron, a “senior lecturer in economics at Harvard University. A Libertarian, he was one of 166 academic economists who signed a letter to congressional leaders [...]

The proposed $700 billion bailout bill has been defeated in the House of Representatives, thank God. About the only other sane thing I’ve heard about the financial debacle and any proposed solution is that the problem is much to complex to cobble together a proper remedy in a few days. Crafting carefully considered judicious legislation is never accomplished overnight, especially when [...]

The Christian doctrine of Original Sin evokes more hostility from non-Christians than most other Church beliefs, with the possible exception of my personal favorite, Eternal Damnation. Interestingly, the animosity directed at Original Sin is not sourced in empirical research, because more evidence exists proving Adam’s sin has passed to all humanity than supports any other Christian doctrine. I mean, [...]

Polygamy has been practiced by various religious groups in the United States since at least 1831, the year Joseph Smith received a revelation from God affirming the practice. Smith was martyred a few years later, but the Mormons survived and thrived under the guidance of Brigham Young. To escape further persecution, Young took his flock to [...]
