President Vs. Tyrant

A few days ago, @RealDLHughley tweeted the following:

"I feel bad 4 Prsdnt Obama 2wars,the economy,an oil spill,Haiti,Japan,Earthquakes in DC,Hurricane Irene!!What is this Deep Impact 2?"

I responded:

"They're only his problems because he wants them to be his problems. President's don't worry about that, Tyrants do. "

He didn't understand what I meant.  To do so, one must understand what Liberty is (which is why I hash tagged it).  From what I understand, Mr. Hughley is kind of a Ron Paul fan.  I've come to realize that people who kind of get what Ron Paul stands for are only because they don't have a full comprehension of why he stands on his platform.  Unfortunately, this comes at the cost of either experience (what began it for me) and reading.  Fear and dependency create a strong central government, and this is how our President is becoming (some would say "has become") a Tyrant.

"Indefinite detention without charges or a right to counsel is now an established precedent for anyone in the world, including an American citizen, declared 'an enemy combatant' by a single U.S. official.  It has been acknowledged by the Obama Administration that the current policy permits the assassination of any suspect anywhere in the world, including an American citizen."  (I added bold for emphasis) Excerpt from Liberty Defined: 50 Essential Issues that Affect Our Freedom by Ron Paul, and I suggest looking at Glenn Greenwald's article "Confirmed: Obama authorizes assassination of U.S. citizen." referenced in the book.

From my readings, I always thought President Lincoln was the great ursurper of power to the current presidency.  He did, after all, go to war with the Confederacy without seeking a declaration of war from Congress among many other atrocious deeds.  I then read 33 Questions about American History You're Not Suppose to Ask by Dr. Thomas E. Woods.  Under the question "Who is most responsible for the 'Imperial Presidency?'" he explains how it was Theodore Roosevelt most responsible for taking a lot of power to the presidency.  "I bid you pay no heed to any other authority, no heed to writ from a judge, or anything else excepting my commands," he told General John M. Schofield during the United Mine Workers strike in 1902, ready to take the mines with the Army.  Woods also explains the Executive Order governing style gained traction under T. Roosevelt:

"To appreciate the transformation that occurred in American Government under TR, consider the number of executive orders issued by the presidents of the late nineteenth century.  President Hayes and Garfield issued none.  Arthur issued 3, Grover Cleveland (first term) 6, Benjamin Harrison 4, Cleveland (second term) 71, and McKinley 51.  TR issued 1,006."

Both T. Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson both shared the opinion that with the election of the president, the people entrusted the president with all the power to do whatever was necessary and best for the nation.

Two Wars:  War has never been declared.  The President can say "We're bringing back the troops now" if he wanted to.

Deploying troops or personnel with intent to cause disruption or death are acts of war (troops on land, air strikes, naval blockades, CIA insertions, etc of which we do all the time).  This is an extremely dangerous power, which is why the Constitution claims this power to Congress.  No one man should be responsible for creating war.  Congress, in all their chicken hawk cowardice, hasn't declared a war since World War 2.  Why not?  The current "9/11 National Emergency" essentially handed the power to the president to do whatever he wants in the name of stopping terrorism.  I realize we can't declare war on terrorism.  I realize this because it will literally be around as long as humans exist.  I also realize that if we stayed out of people's business, we probably wouldn't have to worry about terrorism on nearly the scale we do today.  When I got out of the army, they called me and about 70 others back (thousands of others have been recalled) into the army to deploy to the Middle East, and there was absolutely no use for the 70 of us.

I wrote a letter to the president (and many more to Congress) with my concerns about how the waste of recalling troops and what we are doing over there.  His team and everyone else's teams response essentially were "Terrorism is real, we need to fight it at all costs, thanks for going to war for us!"  Not to even mention the fact that there is compensation for stop-lossed soldiers, but none for recalled soldiers because there isn't enough money.

Preemptive war is no excuse, either.  "Preemptive" is just a pretty word for "aggressive."

As long as we talk about war like it's the weather, the power to create it will ultimately stay with the one who wants it.  With war, you are literally asking people to go die for you, but we act as though that isn't a big deal.  As long as it isn't the one asking to go die isn't the one going to die, I guess it isn't a big deal.

"Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don't want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.  Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.  This is easy.  All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.  It is the same in every country." - Hermann Goering, Hitler's Reich-Marshall at the Nuremberg Trials

The Economy:  Under our current system of economics, when would it be easier to control the economy...when we are fighting numerous wars or when we are not?  As long as we have presidents who want war, we'll get war (I can't think of any president, in modern history, who didn't want war and didn't pursue it other than because Congress said no, except maybe the Lebanon incident under Reagan).  Of course they'll teach you that war is great for economy, which is proven now.  Thomas DiLorenzo explains the "Broken Window" thought on economics, and how "war propserity" isn't really prosperity in this video.

If we had Capitalism, the government wouldn't need to worry about the economy.  Why politicians think they're economists blows my mind (why politicians think they're experts on everything blows my mind).  The Austrian School of Economics' followers have predicted almost every recession/financial crisis we've had since the creation of the Federal Reserve and the Federal Income Tax, but Congress or the President won't take a second look at it.  Why?  It would require that they relinquish power, and we certainly can't have that.

We will never have Capitalism as long as the government spends like it does and steals our money (income tax is legal plunder).  Keynesianism is our accepted form of economics.  It gives that power to the government.

Honestly, the only point I feel I really have to make here is with The American Investment and Recovery Act and the fact that THEY USED MONEY TO MAKE SIGNS!  That is the most counter productive and egotistical piece of work I may have ever seen.  Should we repair a school?  Should we repair a bridge?  Should we update the water treatment plant?  No!  Let's make a $10,000 sign!  And that sign is going to say we're spending money to create jobs that will only be good for this one time!

The Oil Spill:  I don't really have an argument here.  I don't know enough of what happened or what the president did.

Natural Disasters:  I saw on TV today FEMA was holding a conference explaining what a hurricane is and what to do if one is coming (yup, tax dollars so hard at work and being used wisely).  The President should literally have to do nothing for them.  They have government programs (unfortunately) "in place" to handle natural disasters.

The American people, time and time and time and time again and again and again, have proven to be a very caring and giving bunch.  In times of need, we fork over loads of money and even some volunteer to help out.  Not even just with the U.S., but all around the world.  If the government stopped its ridiculous foreign aid policies (let's give money to our friends AND enemies!), we'd have a lot more money to deal with natural disasters as well.

With the president and Congress obtaining the power and income tax he has over the last century or so, people have become dependent on them.  Instead of picking up a shovel or a trash bag, most people first turn to the government for help.  We don't need the government to do anything for us, but we are convinced we do.  Of course the President should be concerned with natural disasters, but the responsibility for them shouldn't fall anywhere near him.

Long winded, as I always am, but I'm stopping now, lol.  Hopefully something was learned here.  I will end with two things:  read Liberty Defined:  50 Essential Issues that Affect Our Freedom by Ron Paul.  It's pretty base on information, but it is a great launch platform on topics.  And to watch this video that Fox News  shockingly aired on 8/28/2011.  Ron Paul gives how he would take power out of the presidency in almost every thing I covererd in this blog.

WWE Summerslam Predictions!

Hades Mother Flippin' Yes!  Another Pay Per View I'm not going to get to see, but that doesn't mean i don't have a say in who is in it to win it!  This is how the matches will go down:

Sheamus Vs. Mark Henry
This will be the most brutal match of the night by far, but will end with Mark Henry winning and injuring Sheamus.

Daniel Bryan Vs. Wade Barrett
There won't even be a match here.  Wade Barrett will come to his senses and realize that the true heart of the NXT revolution was Bryan, and forfeit.  Bryan wins.

Rey Mysterio Vs. The Miz
Rey Mysterio will hit the 619 and then attempt to do his "35 Pound Falling Splash" which will not connect because the Miz will think to himself "I'm not losing to a 35 Pound Falling Splash because that's pure stupidity" and the miz will hit 50 Skull Crushing Finales.  This renders Rey injured, and the Miz will take his spot for the match on Monday Night RAW!

R-Truth Vs. John Morrison
With John Morrison on a giant losing streak since his return and the loss of Melina to RAW, Morrison will spiral downward into a depression that will shock his fans...and even R-Truth.  After R-Truth wins, he will share his conspiracy philiosophies with Morrison, and he will be set free by the Truth.  This will be the beginning of the dominant stable in the WWE today.

Christian Vs. Randy Orton
Christian said he had some sort of surprise for Orton on Zackdown.  The surprise is going to be Gillberg, and Gillberg is going to Spear the ring so hard, it will knock Randy unconcious. 1-2-3 for Christian to retain the Championship!

Kelly Kelly Vs. Beth Phoenix
Beth Phoenix will either win this in 60 seconds or 10 minutes, depending on if the WWE is going to ctually have the Divas start performing.  After Beth's win when Natalie interferes, Gillberg will come out and sexy dance with the Divas of Doom.

CM Punk Vs. John Cena
John Cena will start crying when, for the first time, he will see more CM Punk shirts than Cena shirts.  CM Punk will GTS Cena from the top rope, get the pin, and Gillberg will Spear HHH and become the European Champion!


Usage of My @USArmyPR Twitter

Today, I started tweeting with my @USArmyPR account that I haven't touched for a while, and I like what I'm doing now.  I am using it to push my hatred for Chicken Hawks who want to lead the United States into more war and killing.  Some examples of how I will be tweeting:

  • If 's hubby says, "Join the Army!" She would if she could cuz of the hubby! Wives join the army when your hubby tells you 2!

    @RickSantorum You wouldn't be the underdog if you joined the army so you'd have credibility to invade Iran rather than be a chicken hawk! <3

    @RickSantorum wants 2 send your kids 2 do his killing! Tell your kids to join the Army so they can kill for him because he's a chicken hawk!



And of course, whenever I get the chance, I'll tweet things like

Oh yeah!

Michele Bachmann, Enslaved President

OK, now, fo'real?  Bachmann is asked "Will you be submissive to your husband?" and she doesn't say "no"!?  And she's still being taken seriously as a candidate for the United States?

This tells me if her husband says "We need to drop a nuclear bomb on Switzerland," she will do it.  I mean, there's a lot of things I don't like about her, but this is something that should make everyone not vote for her. 

If you go to Thesaurus.com and see the synomyms to "Submissive," you will see that "Respect" is not on the list.  As much as I like to skewer words, I can't even skewer these two to make them mean the same thing.

And people cheered her answer, which blows my mind.  So go ahead and vote for the woman who actually will be answering to the man she's sleeping with, definitely not to the American People.

Still, I will be casting my vote for Liberty. Ron Paul 2012!  And jump on Twitter y'all, it's better than Facebook

Just testing!

Coverage of Fox News Presidential Debate

It makes no sense to ask one candidate a question and not the same question to the others.  Also, I'm getting tired of hearing the Romney/Bachmann/Pawlenty show now at 54 minutes in.  I don't get why religion is so important for someone to vote on.  Dang it feed is cutting out like crazy now!!!

Michelle Bachmann:  Sure she was spearheading the anti-debt ceiling raise.  And as for not getting cheers, she blatantly did on her first answer.  Attacking!  Wow, she's getting a lot of time to talk already.  Did she vote to renew the Patriot Act?  This debate is definitely Bachmann focused.  ROFL @ submissive question.

Mitt Romney:  Um, what do you know about Capitalism?  Do you realize we don't have Capitalism?  We have a free economy?  LOL, now he's going to tell me how a free economy works.  Ron Paul worked in the "real" economy - he was a doctor!  "Nope, I don't believe in taxes." If he really believes that, awesome.  Why shouldn't we leave faster than what the generals suggest?  So, would he push for extending unemployment benefits or not?

Herman Cain:  Four point plan!  Drat internet cut out!  "You want me to answer all of questions in one minute?"  Exactly.  Ooooo...3 problems in Afghanistan, eh?  Still waiting for them to ask Cain about Afghanistan.

Ron Paul:  Wow, they're asking him on the 3rd question already?  He's saying "sound money" like most people know what that is.  I know what he just said blew over everyone's head.  Ack, he just stumbled.  Down with militarism!!  Businessmen shouldn't policemen!  I just love how he brings war into everything, because war is kind of important.  Market delivery of medical care!!!  Great answers with diluting the status quo with Perry.  Dang, almost teared up on his Iran answer.  He should give his reading list to Santorum like he did to Giuliani.  He's dead on about War Propaganda.  They asked him about marriage on the last debate, and his answer was a lot better in the last debate.

Rick Santorum:    Another four point plan, lol.  "There's other people here who haven't had a chance to say a whole lot."  Right, if you're not Pawlenty, Romney, or Bachmann, rofl.  Why can't a state decide to go poligamus?  Because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't right for someone else.  Now he's telling me that Iranians kill more U.S. Troops than anyone, and he's about ready to cry.  Santorum hates Ron paul!  I think his hatred overshadows the Bachmann/Pawlenty slobberknocker.

Jon Huntsman:  FYI - running a state isn't the same thing as running a country.  We're not in war, but he apparently is good at war-mongering patriotism.  Again, running a state isn't the same thing as running a country.  ROFL, no applause.  This whole "cyber-terrorism" business....why is any governent information accessible through the internet, or are intranets not what I think they are?  He keeps talking about his record almost on every answer, if I remember correctly.  He needed some more time I think.

Newt Gengrich:  This guy seems shady, but he did just line out that guy with the "Got'cha" questions comment, lol.  He states that Congress should repeal all that stuff, but why?  He has no chance because now he has no media support after the "press corps" comments, lol.  Now he's attacking Herman Cain.  Good comment about the Super Committee!  He's a war monger - "use covert troops" lame.  Haha, he fights with panel more than answering questions.  ROFL LOYALTY TEST!!!!!!!!???!??!?

Tim Pawlenty:  "I will come to your house and cook you dinner."  A waste of airtime.  "Is she unqualified, or is she just being you in the polls?" Dirty!  Now Pawlenty is showing he is a Politician.  Again, running a state isn't the same thing as running a country.  You can't hate on Bachmann for not getting results, at least she's trying, right?  LOL, "health impact fee."  That's lame.  It turns out fees are different than taxes, eh?  Another question for Pawlenty, hooray!!  And now let's have him reanswer a question he was asked last time.  Waste of time!  Omg, this guy tries to win votes by praising the military, it's sickening.  Stand shoulder to shoulder with Isreal?  Really?  If we vote on how "historic" he believes he is, he'll be president 50 times over.

I was Tweeting during the break.  The chat on Fox News is so Ron Paul heavy, it's great!

I still can't believe anything but war is brought up.  This tells me that, as Americans, War has the same importance as the weather.

Married...with Children Best Sitcom Ever?

I haven't really seen too many sitcoms as of late, but I haven't seen a sitcom where every character gets a huge pop from the audience from their appearance.  I think "Unhappily Ever After" also did (which, of course, essentially was just MWC 2) , but I'm waiting for offical DVD's of the show to come out (The ones I have found look bootleg). 

I sent an email to ABC Studios.  Their contact form - http://www.abcstudiosmedianet.com/web/display/content.aspx?type=feedback&siteID=SN - is down, so I emailed one of the Media Relations people.

And holy balls...."Duckman is out on DVD?!?" Hades mother flippin' yes!!! BUT HOLY EXPENSIVE!!!

Meanwhile, you can catch "Married...with Children" early as balls on TBS.  They show about 3 episodes week nightly around 4:00 A.M. - 6:00 A.M. Central Time

Web Surfing w/o Getting Caught

Just a few days ago, I started to think something - does the chat or web history used in Steam get saved anywhere?

It doesn't appear so.

So I started thinking - is this the best way for someone to secretly search the web about goofy/forbidden stuff?  Quite possibly!

With any browser, you'll have to physically clear history (or have it set to automatically do it) every so often/every time you surf.  This is not my preferred method because, well, it's just too much work!  Plus, you forget it once, whoopsie.  I also like to have my history so I don't have to type every durned thing in every time.

Chrome, though, has it's incognito mode.  Panic buttons seem to be popular (thanks to Cookie for this link): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/faminaibgiklngmfpfbhmokfmnglamcm?hl=en&hc=search&hcp=main

Or even a real panic button, the Stealth Switch!  http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/accessories/c8a8/

When you're in a game with Steam, though, you press Shift + Tab and BAM! You are back in a game.  Someone who is trying to catch you isn't going to hang around if you appear to be actively engaged in a game, ROFL. 

Once you close the browsing window while you are in Shift + Tab mode in Steam, all of that is *Poof* gone!  Although it isn't the most adaptable browser, you can still watch embedded videos in it.

While you're there, you can browse the steam store.  Even if you aren't a gamer, they have PLENTY of casual games for one to choose from.  If you hang around for a little while, you can even find a game for dirt cheap, since Steam does all sorts of sales from 10% - 90%!

Check out Steam!  http://store.steampowered.com/

UPS/Amazon Botch vs. Steam Botch

I like Steam, even though they are botchy every once in a while.  Amazon usually doesn't botch (I'm blaming the botch on Amazon even though it is UPS just in protest to the horrible demeanor eBay treats its merchants on deliveries, hahahaha) but these both I found within a minute.

Please, if you have Steam botches, forward them to me!

Dino D-Day Free Weekend!

Have you ever wanted to play a game where Nazis resurrect dinosaurs with the sole purpose of winning World War 2?  Well, now it is possible, and now it is free until Sunday afternoon!   http://store.steampowered.com/app/70000
ROFL that is ridiculous!
