Parasites vs Freedom debate today in Washington

The televised debate today between the parasites and those who want freedom will be taking place to day in Washington, DC.  One can only hope that freedom prevails.  If the “center” is between freedom and statism then who wants to be in the center?  There is no “middle ground” between you and your enslavers.  There is no middle ground between you and your destroyers.

One wonders why these people don’t want to take responsibility for themselves and expect to be treated as children who need to be taken care of by someone else.

Contrary to the claims of some of my critics, I am an ardent believer in the free market- Obama

“Contrary to the claims of some of my critics, I am an ardent believer in the free market.” February 24, 2010, President Obama

Sure, and contrary to the claims of his critics, Hitler was an ardent believer in Judaism. Actions speak louder than words, and freedom and the policies espoused by this administration go together as well as oil and water.

You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man’s age-old dream–the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order — or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. Regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would sacrifice freedom for security have embarked on this downward path. Plutarch warned, “The real destroyer of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations and benefits.”

The Founding Fathers knew a government can’t control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and

“He says ‘I’m for clean coal,’ and then he says it in his speeches, but he doesn’t say it in here. And he doesn’t say it in the minds of my own people. And he’s beginning to not be believable to me.” ” Sen. Jay Rockefeller of West Virginia.  RealClearPolitics.com

[T]he Obama administration has argued that warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no “reasonable expectation of privacy” in their–or at least their cell phones’.

The question is not only whether the Fourth Amendment prohibits it, the question is where in the Constitution the Federal Government is given the power to do so and the answer is nowhere.

Paper currencies are only as good as the people behind the paper.  And generally those people are a sorry lot. Fiat currencies put you at the mercy of the bureaucrats.

Socialism and freedom do not mix.  The advocates of socialism are advocating taking your freedom from you.

Socialized Health Care. A question of freedom. ‘The doctor’s fight against socialized medicine is your fight.’

Realize that the doctor’s fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We can’t socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business. If some among you fear taking a stand because you are afraid of reprisals from customers, clients, or even government, recognize that you are just feeding the crocodile hoping he’ll eat you last.

If all of this seems like a great deal of trouble, think what’s at stake. We are faced with the most evil enemy mankind has known in his long climb from the swamp to the stars. There can be no security anywhere in the free world if there is no fiscal and economic stability within the United States. Those who ask us to trade our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state are architects of a policy of accommodation.

Corp man is “Corpse man” according the President Obama and the Press “Corpse” ignores it.

If President Bush had said “corpse man” instead of “corps man” the press would have been all over it.  Instead the stenographers in Washington ignore it.  I should say, the “Press Corpse” in Washington ignores it.

How appropriate that the President would refer to them as the “Press Corpse” – they are dead to their jobs and let personal biases guide their reporting.
