Rick Santorum: Ron Paul's views reveal a 'disconnect from reality'

Rick Santorum: Ron Paul's views reveal a 'disconnect from reality':

Rick Santorum signaled Thursday that the disagreement he mapped out against Ron Paul in a surprisingly intense attack at the last Republican debate is likely to continue, responding to a question about the Texas congressman’s views by saying they represent a “disconnect from reality.”

“I’m very concerned that we have this new brand of Republicanism that’s been foreign to conservatism for the past 50 years,” Santorum told POLITICO. “We haven’t seen this isolationism rear its head on the Republican side, and we’ve traditionally been much more realistic about the threats that confront us. We don’t do what the left does and try to fit everything into some ideological understanding of the world.”

Santorum is spending the next two days stumping in South Carolina, where he hopes to appeal to many of the military families in coastal communities that supported John McCain in 2008. Always known as more of a culture warrior, the former Pennsylvania senator will be emphasizing his role on the Senate Armed Services Committee.................

THE PLOT TO DESTROY THE CONSTITUTION How Team Obama undermines and perverts 'the supreme law of the land' Read more: THE PLOT TO DESTROY THE CONSTITUTION http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=335309#ixzz1WBO5Hv3x

Thomas Jefferson warned us about the monster called government.
"In questions of power," he urged, "let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution."
Unfortunately, America's government has long thrown off those constitutional "chains," resulting in its cancerous growth, massive welfare state, ruinous public debt and freedom-destroying intrusions into every area of the lives of its citizens.
And that was before Obama.
Today, the practice of ignoring, distorting and perverting the Constitution has become a high art. It is, in fact, literally the modus operandi of Barack Obama's presidency, as stunningly documented in the September issue of Whistleblower, "THE PLOT TO DESTROY THE CONSTITUTION."

In a relentless campaign to "transform America" from history's most successful constitutional republic into just one more weak European-style entitlement society based on all-powerful central government and massive wealth "redistribution," Obama and his administration have shredded the Constitution in every conceivable manner.
Soon after his inauguration, an early tipoff Obama held the Constitution in low esteem was his choice of "czars." Science czar John Holdren, for instance, is on record saying that in the event of a national emergency, the Constitution would permit compulsory abortions!
And Obama's powerful regulatory czar Cass Sunstein advocates an entirely new bill of rights – even authoring a book, "The Second Bill of Rights: FDR's Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More than Ever," in which he advances a disturbingly communist-sounding new set of "rights" for America. These include the government-guaranteed "right" to a job; the "right" to earn enough to provide adequate food, clothing and recreation; the "right" to a decent home, to medical care and to a good education; and many more cradle-to-grave "rights" reminiscent of totalitarian, collectivist societies.

Inhofe lays long list of nation's ills at Obama's feet | Tulsa World: BROKEN ARROW —

President Barack Obama alone is to blame for the nation’s budget deficit – and just about everything else,

U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe told the Broken Arrow Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday.



“We now have a president, and I don’t mean this disrespectfully, who is destroying these very institutions that made America great,” Inhofe, R-Okla., said.

Inhofe went on to say the Obama administration has “disarmed America,” is solely responsible for the federal budget deficit, mostly responsible for the nation’s dependence on imported oil and suffocating business with regulations.

He also said Obama engineered the House Republicans’ ban on earmarks in order to give himself more control of the budget.

Prison Planet.com � Forecaster: Hype Over Hurricane Irene is Overblown

Prison Planet.com � Forecaster: Hype Over Hurricane Irene is Overblown:

Friday, August 26, 2011

The hype over Hurricane Irene is overblown, predicts the CEO of Advanced Forecasting Corporation.

“North of Delaware, most hurricane force winds will very likely be gusts, not sustained winds.”

The demise of Irene has already begun. There is no visible eye. The storm intensity is down to 99 mph. This would be a low-end category 2 or a strong category 1 storm, while 36 hours ago some predicted a catastrophic category 4 storm. Air Force Reserve aircraft have found that Irene’s eyewall has collapsed, and the central pressure has risen — rising pressure means a weakening storm.

The reduction in storm intensity likely confirms that this storm is not going to be as monstrous as it has been publicly forecast to be.

Yes, it will be windy. However, north of Delaware most hurricane force winds will very likely be gusts, not sustained winds.

FRAMINGHAM — A Framingham man illegally in the country from Kenya was drunk when he nearly ran his sport utility vehicle into a police car Wednesday night on Waverly Street, police said.

After the near crash, Onyango Obama, 67, told Officer Val Krishtal that Krishtal should have yielded to his Mitsubishi SUV, according to a report filed yesterday in Framingham District Court.

Krishtal said he and another driver had to slam on their brakes to avoid hitting the SUV, which rolled through a stop sign and took a quick left turn.

Mayor Orders Cops To Remove Citizen At Council Meeting For Stating His Name
August 26, 2011 Gunny G

Ron Paul supporter and anti-drug war activist Ronnie Reeferseed was hauled away from an Austin City Council meeting and banned for a year for stating his name in a mildly satirical manner, in yet another example of how local officials are increasingly engaging in petty power trips to oppress the free speech rights of American citizens.

The video shows Ronnie introducing himself before Mayor Lee Leffingwell snarls, “you will stop there, step back, your time is up,” and gestures for police officers to come and remove him from the podium.

Ronnie stated his satirical pseudonym in a, God forbid, mildly satirical manner, but the reaction of Leffingwell and the goons who removed him from the podium was a despicable and thuggish overreaction.

When other citizens present at the council meeting start to vocally complain about Ronnie’s treatment, Mayor Leffingwell calls for order and then threatens them, “sit down, be quiet, or you’ll be next.”................

Islam Is Not Part of Our Civilization

Islam Is Not Part of Our Civilization:

Obama said at the latest White House Iftar dinner:

Like so many faiths, Islam has always been part of our American family, and Muslim Americans have long contributed to the strength and character of our country, in all walks of life.

These words have no basis in fact. Islam is not part of our civilization because its foundational principles are opposite to ours. Our civilization is built on the foundation of critical thought (how we think) and the Golden Rule (ethics). Islam is built on submission (authoritative thought) and ethical dualism.

Let’s compare the principles, of these different thought systems, starting with authoritative thought and critical thought.

Critical thought (also: analytic thought, scientific thought) is the necessary reasoning or intellectual basis for our culture of democracy. Critical thought is objective--no matter who does the work, they get the same results. It is fact-based, uses cause and effect, and is intellectual, not emotional. Critical thought’s tie into morals is that you don’t lie or cheat about data.

I’m sure they left this guy’s part out of the movie version, or I’d remember it.

In the latter chapters of the book, Battle Cry, by Leon Uris, the Bn Co, LtCol Huxley (Highpockets), is in his office with his XO, Major Wellman. They are dicussing a new officer due to report aboard. The officer is Max Shapiro; a Marine legend and known as “Two Gun Shapiro.”

His record told a story of transfers, demotion, courts-martial, citations for valor, and promotions. It was a book of contradictions.

Huxley knew he was a troublemaker, but, Huxley told Wellman, the book tells only part of the story. He knew that the name Two Gun did not refer to Shapiro as an expert with weapons, on the contrary, Shapiro had bad eyes, the story goes that he had sneaked up on a Jap at close range and fired two clips of forty-fives and missed every shot.

Huxley had heard of him back some 10 years prior, Shapiro’s father had gotten him into West Point.......

'Scarface': Over-The-Top, But Ahead Of Its Time

'Scarface': Over-The-Top, But Ahead Of Its Time:

But that was before I became a critic and discovered that, over the years, you wind up with a pocketful of unused tickets from all the boats you've missed.

Take, for instance, Scarface, the 1983 gangster picture directed by Brian De Palma, written by Oliver Stone, and starring Al Pacino who gives a performance the size of a Caribbean cruise ship.

When it first came out, I panned it for taking Howard Hawks's great 1932 movie and remaking it as something trashy, shallow, and excessive to the point of Camp. I wasn't alone. The movie received lots of bad reviews, and even the public wasn't wild about it. It was only the sixteenth biggest box-office draw of 1983, behind such cinematic triumphs as Mr. Mom and Jaws 3-D.

But Scarface didn't vanish like they did. Instead, over the next quarter century, it became a phenomenon. The movie's now so iconic that it doesn't even seem silly that Universal should bring out a fancy, metal-encased Blu-ray version, the Scarface Limited Edition Steelbook, which captures the story in all its lurid glory.

By now, most everyone knows the plot. Pacino stars as Tony Montana, a small-time Cuban exile. Tony arrives in Miami along with his friend Manny Ribera — that's Steven Bauer — and sets about trying to...............

The demonstrations followed Sarkozy’s announcement that the French government plans to implement austerity measures, including spending cuts and tax increases...............

A court has rejected the latest effort by the lone remaining defendant in the prosecution of eight Camp Pendleton Marines for the slayings of 24 Iraqi civilians in 2005.

In its ruling, the Navy-Marine Corps Court of Appeals in Washington indicated it has grown weary of efforts by Staff Sgt. Frank Wuterich‘s attorneys to get his case dismissed or derailed on appellate issues.

With the United States facing a national debt of more than $14 trillion, the largest since World War Two, wouldn’t it make sense for the White House itself to start trimming its own spending? A good place to begin cutting would be Michelle Obama’s rather generous vacation programme. Keith Coffler, who edits the influential White House Dossier, notes that Michelle Obama spent no less than 42 days on vacation over the past year – that’s one in every nine days.

House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is pressing President Obama for information on costly government regulations, days after the White House announced a plan to eliminate more than 500 federal rules in an effort to save $10 billion over the next five years.

In a letter sent to Obama on Friday, Boehner reiterated a request he made this time last year for the administration to provide details on regulations with a projected cost of more than $1 billion, arguing that new projections by the White House point to 219 new planned regulations at a nearly 15 percent increase in cost over last year.

“I am again asking that your Administration provide a list of all pending and planned rulemakings with a projected impact on our economy in excess of $1 billion,” Boehner wrote in his letter Friday.

That’s because for almost three long years now, this destructive duo has tormented and provoked average people, all the while displaying zero discernible human emotion for anything American.


While Obama blows back into town after yet another vacation, Hurricane Irene will, by Sunday,  be a part of the worrisome, frightening reality of an estimated 65 million people.
