Silvio Canto, Jr. Friday, October 04, 2024 5:00 AM "Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - President Ronald Reagan

The great Charlton Heston was born in Illinois on this day in 1923. He died in 2008. He was in so many movies that it's hard to count. However, my guess is that most people remember him for "The Ten Commandments. After Hollywood, he worked with the NRA and was a political activist. He was also a great human being. P.S. You can listen to my show. If you like our posts, please look for Donate on the right column of the blog page.
Long time no blog That was definitely the longest I've gone without posting here since I started almost 20 years ago. I can't explain it other than to say my biorhythms were low.IYKYK.Anyway, I saw clips and breathless tweets about the first part of the debate and then wife kitteh wanted to watch the end of it. I wish I hadn't. It was depressing.The moderators from ABCBSCNNNPR or whatever network of clones it was were the depressing part, specifically their questions. They ask what interests them and, by proxy, what they think interests most people. They all wanted to know how much more ice cream the government was going to give them for dessert.There was a health care crisis, a mental health crisis, a day care crisis and a[...]
K T Cat 9/26/2024 5:21:10 AM I'm listening to two books right now, the first of which is: A World Without Men: An Analysis of an All-Female Economy. It is a polemic against the feminist hatred of men. It's quite good and illustrates how women can't exist without men, disproving the feminist nonsense philosophies.That one is pretty mean, so this one is the perfect antidote: What in the World?: A Southern Woman's Guide to Laughing at Life's Unexpected Curveballs and Beautiful Blessings. It's written by a comedienne that I adore and it is full-on Southern.Leanne Morgan was raised in tiny Adams, TN. Her book is the perfect inoculation to the feminist hatred of men and the reflexive MGTOW hatred of women. It's pure, Southern wisdom and familial[...]
You used to earn an interest rate roughly inline with nominal GDP growth, even slightly better.Since the Fed started manipulating interest rates with QE, you're behind nominal GDP growth by 2.4% per year.
W.C. Varones 8/22/2024 7:39:06 AM This idiot was actually a high school teacher, indoctrinating kids with these Orwellian lies:Walz making an alarming and false claim: "There's no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech, and especially around our democracy."Walz is wrong, of course: The First Amendment, which vigorously protects Americans' free speech rights, does not distinguish between good information and misinformation. Moreover, so-called hate speechan arbitrary category, as different people find different sorts of speech to be hatefulis quite obviously protected.Combine that with the Biden-Harris administration's long record of brutal censorship (see disinformation czar Nina Jankowitz, Twitter Files...), the First Amendment is on the[...]
B-Daddy 1/26/2022 8:32:44 PM Well not really; and not just because Burnham isn't a household name. James Burnham authored key insights on "managerialism" and predicted its eventual triumph over capitalism in his 1941 book "The Managerial Revolution," summarized here, but skip ahead 5 minutes (this is a great podcast). George Orwell provided this summary in 1943.Capitalism is disappearing, but Socialism is not replacing it. What is now arising is a new kind of planned, centralized society which will be neither capitalist nor, in any accepted sense of the word, democratic. The rulers of this new society will be the people who effectively control the means of production: that is, business executives, technicians, bureaucrats and soldiers,[...]
Which would be the result of actually implementing this whole #DefundThePolice nonsense. To catch you up:From The Guardian:The Minneapolis city council has pledged to disband the citys police department and replace it with a new system of public safety, a historic move that comes as calls to defund law enforcement are sweeping the US. Speaking at a community rally on Sunday, a veto-proof majority of council members declared their intent to dismantle and abolish the embattled police agency responsible for George Floyds death and build an alternative model of community-led safety. The decision is a direct response to the massive protests that have taken over American cities in the last two weeks, and is a[...]
Doo Doo Econ Tuesday, January 19, 2016 6:08 PM Doo Doo Economics are the policies of overspending, printing money, neglecting the key economics issues, bad science and promoting entitlement programs which all add up to higher taxes during a recession and economic unsustainablility.
Once again Americans are facing questions about the definition of a Natural Born Citizen (NBC).This is the simple and indisputable definition: Two citizens who have a child, naturally create a new citizen. This is a Natural Born Citizen.There is absolutely no expert either legal or historical who will argue to the contrary. They may argue to include additional citizens, but this is the core of the definition.Two people who have a child in a location, have a citizen who is native to that land. This is a Native Born Citizen. Thus, terms like "Native American" which imply a location and not an allegiance to a country.A person can be both Natural Born and Native Born, or in the United States we also have Naturalized[...]
Do you remember the headlines when Obama apparently declared America a Muslim country on French television? Taken from an Islamic perspective this statement is dangerous. It sounds as if the President of the United States sees America is a Muslim nation. When you consider translations, this may presented to the masses as exactly that, American President Hussein (an exclusively Islamic name) Obama declares America to be Islamic. Thus America would be "al-Islam", or territory which may never be ceded to non-Muslims.Semantics, right? Over-reaction, right?Except, this is a long standing meme from not only the President, but also his staffers. [...]
Dean 11/11/2015 9:22:09 AM Over the weekend, Salon writer, DAVID MASCIOTRA, caused quite a dust-up on social media with his own salute to the troops ahead of Veterans Day . Here is the headline, followed by the sub-headline and then followed by the first paragraph of the piece:You dont protect my freedom: Our childish insistence on calling soldiers heroes deadens real democracyIt's been 70 years since we fought a war about freedom. Forced troop worship and compulsory patriotism must endPut a man in uniform, preferably a white man, give him a gun, and Americans will worship him. It is a particularly childish trait, of a childlike culture, that insists on anointing all active military members and police officers as heroes.If you desire, you can read it[...]
Theres no denying that over the last few decades most all on-field rules changes made by the NFL have been exercises in increasing offense and scoring. This has created an arms race in a sense where the pendulum swings back and forth between the NFL offenses and NFL defenses whereby the offenses get aided by rules changes and the defenses counter with a combination of innovative schemes and superior athletes. To wit, for years, its been conventional wisdom that the best athletes in the world were in the NBA. Now days, we would add NFL defensive backs and possibly outside linebackers/rush ends into that mix (you dont think dudes like Richard Sherman, Darrelle Revis and J.J. Watt can ball a little?).But[...]
